I have some bugs for the Express Rom, maybe someone can shoot it to one of the guys, since I cant post in the dev group.

In landscape mode, click (touch) on the "people" widget and the mail widget will open, if you have a widget next to the "messages" widget, touching the messages widget will go to the app next to it.

Also in Landscape mode looking at the People Favorites/4G widget, the 4G widgets need to be re-sized, as the white blocks are covering the people favorite apps (top left corner)

In "all apps", touch menu button popup you will see weather options, touch snowball and you get a FC

lol was going to post photos but cant do that either lol

how many to go till I can?

ok well those things are minor but thought I would post them
[EVO 4G General] stu1021:
First, I would like to post this in the dev thread but like the OP I am in "10 post purgatory". I am enjoying the ROM - it is the 4th or 5th that I have flashed on the EVO and hands down the best.

I was a little scary waiting for the install to finish 30-35 minutes but patience is a virtue in this case.......

I am running the Express ROM 3.6.1 and had a couple of issues:

The HTC bookmarks uninstall/install issue I fixed by installing the apk posted in the dev thread with root explorer into the data/app_s folder and then changing the permissions to match the rest of the widgets in that folder. re-booted and re-installed the widget - worked perfectly.

The lockscreen apps/weather bug is still a problem for me - even after wiping 3 times, using the wipe.zip, and re-flashing. Tried various wipes and re-flashes and nothing worked, yes I followed the instructions posted in the dev thread for Personalize, Rosie, then Short Cut Lockscreen, then back button and power off, power on - waiting for the RC to fix this.

Have also had issues with ending calls that are answered from the lockscreen or originated in voicemail.

Also, haven't seen anyone else complain of this but the voicemail icon doesn't display the counter with un-viewed voicemails. The mail and messenger icons do have the counters however. Has anyone else seen/fixed this one?

I would love to see some options for modding the clock on the lockscreen - even if it just to change the color.

Edit: forgot to mention I installed the calculator widget on one of the home screens and it centers on the screen. After re-booting it moved to the upper right corner of the screen, uninstalled and re-installed and it goes back to the correct position - odd.

All in all, a great ROM - many thanks to the developers for all the work and the support going on over in the development section.

Hey,

The express rom is a great rom but just like many of the roms out there it is a WIP and the devs know that there all glitches and they are working their buts off to get us amazing roms because the evos developers just take care of us so much better then so many other phones and we are really thankful for them. But since they are still working on it we just need to give them time to work all the bugs out and when it is all done we will have one heck of a rom! We just have to be patient but that is the least we can do for out devs :D

I hope I helped If I did please hit the thanks!

[EVO 4G General] scottspa74:
As far as touching a widget and having the app next to it open up, that's what the OP for the rom is referring to when he says 'much resizing needs to be done'. I believe it's because of the resolution differences. Editing M10s is apparently very frustrating and time consuming, as this ROM (or variations of it) has been being worked on for roughly a year , since The_Platypus started it. (There was also someone involved at the very beginning, but I forget who)

sac23 ported the Flyer originally, I believe, and then justinswidebody was the first one who tried the Express (after my incessant begging, lol). The platty jumped on, if I recall correctly.

only bug ive seen is the linking people together from my other accs ie facebook twitter tango..... btw dont get the themed one they suck because its someone elses style...so get 3.6.0 and run it with the anthrax og evo4g kernel...ftw
[EVO 4G General] stu1021:
after 2 weeks on the ROM....

The install has started to become somewhat unstable - I am getting random FC's and screen lockups that require me to remove the battery and reboot. After it was first installed, it ran very smoothly except for the known bugs..

At some point I will probably go thru the wipe procedure and re-install to see if it happens again.

I did notice one other issue (probably a re-sizing issue) with the calculator widget. The display truncates in the portrait mode. It displays correctly in horizontal mode, but then the keyboard has the problem of when you push the far left or far right keys, it rotates the display to the next home screen......
[EVO 4G General] stu1021:
one more thing.....

I guess I should re-iterate what I said in post 2 that I love this ROM (3.6.1 themed) and appreciate all the work going on in dev forum. I am just posting these notes because I know that work is ongoing on the RC release and I hope someone will stumble over here and see them.

So here is another observation - The Bluetooth link to the hands free system (Argos) in my MBZ has been acting strange for the last week. It always pairs reliably when I get in the car but it sometimes will not transfer the audio to the vehicle's system (even though the phone and the car both say they are connected. Lately, I have had to manually cycle the Bluetooth off and then back on to get it to work. I have run a few other custom ROMs and not experienced this. For sometime pryor to installing this ROM I was running the Kinged Shooter and then the rooted stock 4.53......

The Argos is Bluetooth 1.2 - not sure if that matters though.

Thanks again for all the hard work.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shaquiel Harris:
I've been realizing lately how amazing android really is and customizable it is with this phone. Off topic but I kinda hated the fact. Of a recent app button and the fact that I lost the menu button (honestly the most used button on all my other phones). The devs here realized it and gave me the ability to have my menu button, get my search button back, and make recent apps come up by holding the home button. Got to love them. Shout out to our fantastic devs.

Now the point of this thread was just I wanted to know how you guys thought about a gesture bar instead of having buttons. So swipe on the bar to go back, maybe swipe up to go home etc? Just trying to think of creative ideas on how to use this huge screen and since everything is virtual, why can't this be possible. What you guys think?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] k20igor:
nice idea, kind of like the microsoft touch mouse. I would like to see someone make that possible and see how it works out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kalavere:
As a technical exercise it sounds like a very good idea, but I know for one I wouldn't use it. Dolphin HD has had gesture support for such a long time and I used it as my main web browser on my Desire but I didn't ever use the gesture support.

Even my HD2 running WM 6.5.x had an app that allowed you to launch any app/program by configuring a gesture, but again I didn't use it.

I guess it's just easier to place my thumb than to move about when holding the phone in one hand. Is this an idea you were thinking of implementing yourself, or are you looking for someone to pick the idea up and run with it?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ZeroBarrier:
You never lost the menu button, it's just not on screen 100% of the time anymore, where it would just waste space otherwise.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ThaDSman:
I think its great idea!

Another few things that would be cool to see would be, resizing the Navigation Bar to be maybe a little thinner, and being able to slide the nav bar left or right, to reveal a icons to launch other apps, and maybe swiping down to hide the navbar all together.

Like you said being able to customize android and change every aspect of it is what makes this OS so awesome.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fatila:
You guys ever use gesture area on webOS phones? Much better than using back key, would be a great idea. It also used visual feedback so a white line would go in the swipe direction. Currently the only phone using something similar to this is the N9 probably, which has swiping through the sides of screen to control apps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
I was just thinking about WebOS when reading this as well. Would be nice.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tadddd:
Just having the soft keys area as a gesture area? cool!

Maybe you could customize your gestures?

A big thing to me would be the ability to have a fully loaded package and be able to switch between stock softkeys, added search/menu softkeys, and gestures. Everything customizeable by user rather than through flashing?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MrBIMC:
menu bar like in windows 8

I think gesture is pretty good, but i`d like to see menu bar(home, recent, etc) like in win8: it is hidden until you swype from bottom-outside up, than it become unhidden. see any wideo with windows 8 tablert, you`ll see what i mean.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Enhanced:
That would get annoying pretty quickly. I don't want to have to add extra steps to navigate my phone. Back, home and recent app are buttons you use all the time, why add a barrier to get to em? More screen real estate isn't worth the extra hassle.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] j.go:
How about navigational controls similar to the quick controls in the stock browser? Touch the bottom edge of the screen and out pops a semi-radial menu that can contain: back, home, recent apps, menu, search and can be used to add quick shortcuts to your most used apps like messaging, contacts, browser, etc., or app specific commands, like say refresh for browser, check mail for, well, email, and so on. Touching the edge requires less effort and movement as compared to swiping up or down.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Northernmost:
I came to Android from webOS after HP shot themselves in the foot several times and one of the things I miss most is the gesture bar you had at the bottom of the screen. With the advent of the soft button area in ICS I see a real option to enable the area to work in a similar fashion. Hell yes!

The webOS gestures were:

A single swipe up would show you your running apps.

Swiping 2 fingers up would show you the launcher (app drawer).

A leftward swipe would go back.

A full swipe across the entire area going either right or left would take you to the next or previous running app.

Besides the wireless charging, the gesture area was one of the webOS killer features you very quickly learned to take for-granted. So long as gesture detection was implemented well I don't see why you couldn't have the soft buttons as they are now and gestures all working at the same time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] biffsmash:
Call me old fashioned, but I also don't like the gestures idea.

Dolphin is just about the only program on android that I have tried to use gestures with, and it's not the sort of feature i'd personally like integrated into my phone.

That said, customizing how different people can use their phones, within the same operating system, so two people can use the exact same phone in two totally different ways, is the way to go :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] noname81:
I like your idea of having the pie control from the stock browser available all over android. I had the idea a while back but was just too lazy to implement it. Today I did a small working prototype and I think I will add the pie control feature to my gesture app "LMT"...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Huntlaar:
good idea but put ot optionaly! maybe it is not practical ! iwould rather hidden button ! like Video player amaing full screen with hidden buttons !!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] j.go:
If implemented properly, you might be able to do away with the bottom bar and take advantage of the full screen. You can't see it with the nexus browser, but if you have a tablet running ICS and enable browser quick controls, the app hides the tabs and address bar, instantly adding an inch of usable screen real estate at the top.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Northernmost:
The big nasty problem with having hidden buttons or, for that matter, any trigger point area(s) on the devices main screen is you'll always end up triggering something when you didn't want to or it interferes with a ui element in one or more apps e.g. game scroll bars / buttons. I've tried plenty and they all interfered with one app or another to the point I stopped using them.

The quick controls idea is fine but you're still having to watch what you're doing. The beauty of gestures in webOS was that you wouldn't have to take your eyes of what you were doing to find a button - your finger just flicked below the screen content while your eyes looked towards what you were going to do next.

I realise it's hard to imagine if you've never done it before but (weak analogy approaching...) think of it like walking up a thin and narrow set of steps as opposed to thick wide ones while trying to read a book. On the narrow steps you have to look down to hit the next step thus breaking the flow of your reading. While on the bigger wider ones you can carry on reading as the step is big enough your foot can find it without taking your eyes of your book.

Anyroad, IMHO, gestures need to be out of the way of app content so as not to interfere with app usage patterns and shouldn't require the user to take their eyes off what they're doing.

Ok, I purchased a few movies on Media Hub when I had my Epic. (The Godfather and Scarface..had to have them). They always worked fine on this phone. When I went to EL29, it showed Media Hub having a mandatory update. Well, the update installs an app called "Samsung Accounts" and it made my paid Media Hub movies show unpaid. I spent hours on the phone with Sprint, then tech support, then Samsung and couldn't even get a credit for movies. I restored my EL26 nandroid and...they work fine. I even froze market updater on EL29 and it didn't work. Hopefully others don't have this experience but if you do, please call and complain! I paid $10 a movie!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gtuansdiamm:
I never used the app because I never got my 50 dollar credit for buying the og epic over priced
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Well, it failed on EL26 now too. The update pops up in the middle of watching my paid movie then says update necessary. If you say no, it closes app...this is some B.S.!!!! At least I can get my purchase date,from EL26 before update pops,up to fight this garbage. Hope they don't figure,out Hotspot
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rpnunez:
Only thing I can think of making a backup of MediaHub without the update, install the update, open the MediaHub apk, find the config or similar file, find a Version variable or something to the like of that, copy it and paste it somewhere. Then, revert to the pre-update MediaHub backup, open, find config, and paste the Version of the updated MediaHub there (along with any other version-defining variables. Then re-create the apk and try again.

Only thing I can think of, which is to try to trick it into thinking it's been updated. I'm an experienced programmer, but I'm now getting into Android Dev'ing, so I don't know the exact process for Android APK's.... yet!

Just a thought. Might not work since the updater might actually scan the contents of all files go see if they aren't the updated files which would force the update regardless of changing a few config values.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dalmus:
This is the reason I don't purchase any sort of media through my phone.

That, and nothing fills me with more dread that watching a 90 minute movie on a 4" screen with tinny sound. But that's just me... I realize others don't have such qualms. :)

[Bravo General] timegonebomb:
Brand new here, otherwise I would have just posted in the development thread. Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for the rom, and I am glad I stumbled upon XDA and had the balls to try a custom rom, for the only android device I own. Much speedier than stock rom, more feature rich, and nicer looking.

Is there a place to report problems or bugs, in case an interested person/party wants to try to develop the rom further? I noticed one thing and I wanted to share it somewhere, so I'll share it here.

1. Some apps like "yellow pages" and "news and weather" are unable to determine the current location (doesn't matter if gps is enabled or not). Other apps, like google places and google maps, determine the current location just fine.

Obviously I'm being super nitpicky here, but regardless, I really love this rom and will continue to use it.
[Bravo General] danielkusaf:
I too am new, and would like to extend thanks to Quarx for the ROM. For the updates coming out, how is updating accomplished? Backup, wipe and install? Thank you again, and so far all is great with this cm7.

I just recently upgraded by Galaxy S2 from 2.3.3 to 2.3.6 using Odin following the instructions at jayceooi.com. The upgrade was fast and easy, and everything went smoothly, mostly anyway.

At the moment Social Hub Premium Accounts are not working. I cannot setup my Gmail nor my Yahoo mail as Premium Accounts. Everytime I try I get the message "Connection Failed." I can, however, set them up as regular accounts, but I lose the Push feature.

I'm thinking this has to be a Samsung Account issue. I wanted to logout and login to Samsung Account, but apparently I can't do that. I can't even remove the associated account without Factory Resetting my device, which I don't wanna do at all.

One piece of information: I bought the device and registred for Samsung Account in indonesia, and I am currently in America. Does that make a difference? Do I have to do the setup in Indonesia?

Thank you
