Dont forget that we also only have 65K color screens. that will cause banding as well..

Did you get it post or pre MR?
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] pinksocker69:
AndroidSPIN is reporting that an HVGA version of Swype is now available, letting those of us with Eris' finally take a crack at this thing.

Which would be great, if it functioned. :( The install process goes okay (a step above the poor G1 users out there), but the keyboard then ... nothing. It's as though it doesn't exist. The Settings options are there (under Locale + Text), but nothing seems to happen. adb logcat revealed nothing in particular.

Anybody know what's up here?

I would try it but I'm more of a two handed typer myself...
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] false_apology:
I like the HTC Keyboard... (maybe because I just got the phone and I'm not tired of it yet). I had swype on my Omnia before I sold it, and it worked ok there because the small, lower res screen made touch typing difficult. I'm not finding that on the Eris. Although Swype would be more fun with a capacitive screen, I had to really push hard to get to work right on the Omnia...
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] pinksocker69:
I agree, the HTC keyboard is top-notch. I'm already at near-native typing speed on common words. It was more out of curiosity than anything. I'm always fascinated by emerging input technologies for embedded devices, and this seemed the most clever one to cross my desk in a while.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] acidbath5546:
I like it...i use it on my Xperia...

I tried this one out on my Eris and its okay..but landscape is slow and lame...

Good Stuff though..

But like Pink I tried it just because its new....lol
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] pinksocker69:
Oh, you got it to work? Was there any special trickery you did? Or did it just *POOF* work for you?
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] acidbath5546:
lol...no trickery...just MAGIC! lmao.

Just download it...

Then go into settings/locale&text/ and check the swype box.

Then head into your text or email app, and long press your dialogue box, it will ask you which input you wanna use swype or default keyboard and select swype!

Only prob I am having is that when i am in landscape mode, it will type but it wont show what i am typing on the screen, but if i switch to portrait it is there? weirdness...
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] Izeltokatl:
Works just fine for me. make sure to disable audio sounds in the swype settings, there is a bug with the sounds.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] refthemc:

If you guys haven't seen it, i'm in the process of installing itn ow to check it out.

To clairfy its not perfect, but it's got everything working but bluetooth. Still has some bugs, but its in the process.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mcgrathx:
been using this ROM since yesterday. Works very well. It was also covered on XDA here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=622523
[Hero CDMA Android Development] adelaney:
Yep. Its in the rom wiki. I'm actually running it now.

Used fresh kitchen to push googlebits. Its pretty fast, like some of the changes, not the keyboard. I would like to see this rom with espresso.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] myke66:
Oh i didnt notice it was on the wiki, honestly i never check it.

Do you guys know if it has the market, or is the only way to put apps on it is manually

Edit: After reading through the read i saw my answer, nevermind. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] adelaney:
You have to manually install all of the google apps then you will have market.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] myke66:
Just finishing doing that. Have to say, 1.6 is fast. I have no use for bluetooth personally, so i think i may rock thier for a while if it stays this stable.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mcgrathx:
You can fix the dictionary by flashing this file Flipz hooked us up with:

http://www.4shared.com/file/178486181/ca22758f/ime_update-signed.html

Reboot after.

If for whatever reason that doesn't work (i was flashing/re-flashing for a while prior to ensuring this fix did the trick) here is the original post by Flipz with good instructions on manually fixing the dictionary.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] myke66:
Thank you for that, i just applied it.

Do you happen to have the original post? After applying that, the onscreen keyboard doesnt come up anymore? theres no keyboard installed according to the phone.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] adelaney:
Yeah, it is pretty slick. I would really like sense mixed in though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] samrozzi:
i am personally tired of sense, i would LOVE this if bt worked

i used it everyday t work (I work at sprint) and I use it every night on phone..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fchipm:
Love Sense but after trying this ROM I can't believe how much faster things work with Vanilla - wouldn't miss Sense at all. What I WOULD miss is the HTC Music Player, Calendar, and Dialer.

And HTC Keyboard....Couldn't get touch input to work on this ROM.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pazignac:
headphones not working

I just installed the 1.6 ASOP and did the whole signed download after loading and everything but I cannot get my headphones to register on the phone when ever i listen to music it just comes out of the speaker not headphones any one else with this problem

[Hero CDMA Android Development] PRGUY85:
Is this running the source kernel released by HTC?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] adelaney:

ps: any word if this rom will have more than 3 screens?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] swornenemy:
I think vanilla only has 3 screens and by all means correct me if im wrong but I believe that is the case. This rom is very fast for me and as odd as this may seem, my headphones do work but my speakerphone is broken. BT doesnt work as previously stated and have decided to use this rom as my daily driver until a viable 2.1 rom gets released

Hey guys...all my contacts from GMAIL got synced to the phone in 1.5 i could select all and delete, how can I do this in 1.6?

[Hero CDMA Android Development] ewang718:
some people have sms/mms issues though but i havent encountered them yet my sms is fine

I love this rom so much, just switching between this and gumbo 1.5b (gotta love gbhil) runs pretty nice
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gu1dry:
Yes this will work, done it plenty times.

This is a mostly stock android build, which only supports 3 screens. There are mods out there increase this. I would recommending doing some research on the forum on how to accomplish if you want to increase the amount of screen. The info will be somewhere on the forums.

These are all known issues, due to this ROM is based off the 31.12.09 build of quiet's AOSP 1.6 ROM.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] katmandu421:
How do you add more screens? I looked thru settings, spare parts and dev tools but came up empty.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chuckhriczko:
It is part of the source code for the Launcher.apk file. You would need to modify the source and recompile the app. On the G1 forums back in the day someone made an alternate launcher with more home screens. I'll see if I can find the link and post it. For the record, the G1 forums have a lot of cool apks people made. For instance, I just flashed this rom and pushed a custom Contacts.apk file and now the contacts and phone more closely resemble 2.x.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chuckhriczko:
Here's the link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=540880. Just remember be careful when flashing this stuff. Make a backup and everything first.

Are any of you guys having a problem with GPS? I cant get GPS to work on any of the 1.6 ROMs.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] swornenemy:
Just tested this yesterday and all works for me. Maybe a wipe/reflash?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] REDFOCZ:
been running this rom for two days .... got to say I love the speed, this is just so much faster then any other ROM that I have used...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Is_907:
GPS works fine for me in Google Maps... Weather widget, however, can't find my location at all. Assuming it pulls location from the carrier network?

Headphones also work fine for me. First I plugged them in, went to dialer, and heard every button press. Second I used Pandora and am enjoying Sonata for Clarinet by Brahms ;)

Two questions for everyone else running this ROM:

1) Have any of you installed a custom lockscreen or the 2.x lockscreens? I don't really like having to push Menu to unlock.

2) Has anyone tried the MoDaCo custom kernel with this ROM yet?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] adelaney:
I tried custom boot and lock, ended up stuck in a boot loop. Don't know why though. Doesn't seem like it should be an issue. I tried both individually at different stages of install, with no sucess.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Tikerz:
Just for kicks I decided to flash it and it hangs on the HTC boot screen.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Is_907:
Good to know, heh.

I'm more interested in getting a better lock screen on here. The stock one is painful, lol.

Maybe one of the newer 2.x lockscreens or even just a slide-down to unlock that's clear like I used on Fresh.

Any ideas/suggestions on how I can do this without screwing up my install?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] daveydave:
GPS works great for me, I was worried about that since Google Nav was one of the main reasons I wanted to try this ROM.

However, my Gmail isn't updating on its own. I read others were having this problem here and there. does anyone have a fix for it?

LOVE this ROM. Very fast. If I can fix the GMail dilemma, I'm going to flash my wife's Hero tonight. She HATES how slow the HTC dialer is. This one is as fast as my iPhone was.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] johndoehizzle:
ahhhhhh.i flashed back to fresh 1.1...tried to flash back to this rom today,bout an hour ago,n when i go into restore,it gives me an error "nandroid-mobile.sh via adb" or somethin like that.....please hellpppp..it wont let me load this rom or any other backups..

EDIT: hmmm...last night i renamed my backups..one ""donut 1.6 " the other "fresh".....renamed them back with the original beginning name..somethin like this "CBDMRS12-20100121-2330" .....its going into restoring mode right now with my fresh..i think that was the problem,renaming the backups......its restoring right now....ive had my phone non-op for like 2 hours now..ahaha.my girls not gone be happy..ahahah
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fchipm:
I asked the same question. Apparently the 2.x lockscreens are not compatible due to something about them being tied in to the framework.

Lockbot (Market App) might be a good option. Or, you could try to push the HTCLockscreen.apk from a Fresh ROM and report the results?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Is_907:
Tried HTCLockScreen.apk and it's no go. Same thing I had with stuff like HTC's widget apks... just says cannot install on this phone.

Will try lockbot!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gthing:
Been running this since last night and gotta say it's pretty damn nice. I had one freeze up but other than that it's been running smooth. It's amazing how much faster everything - I mean EVERYTHING - is without Senseui running. Or maybe 1.6 is just that much faster?

I miss the dialer and the keyboard most, I can do without the other HTC stuff. Would be nice to have Facebook integration maybe...

I found another dialer on the market that is similar to the HTC dialer and will be trying that.

The benefits in speed outweigh what is missing in this rom, and fortunately I don't need bluetooth. I'm going to rock this for a while so long as it remains stable.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] coldfire2122:
I dont know if your still having this issue but if so use the RUU posted in these fourms to go back to stock then reroot and reflash the rom. I had the same contacts syncing issue an this fixed it.

Yea it seems the data connection drops out periodically. I haven't seen a fix for it posted yet. I've had to reboot my phone.

The keyboard fix is great! But you could just copy the apks to your sd card and install them with astro as well. If they download as zips, as they did for me, you can just change the extension.

The rest is simple too.

hi-is it possible to have smaller thumbnails in internet bar in manila? i mean 3 or 4 pages in a row...could someone help me what i have to modify?
[Touch2 Themes and Apps] taimoorhusain:
Im going to try and start a thread for collecting some mods and tweaks for Manila .1922 and above since it seems like a lot of tweaks that were collected for Sense 2.5 before actually break under .1922 and in some instances also crash Manila somteims requireing a hard reset.

Here is what i've found so far :

Max Ultimate Theme - This is a great utility for applying a bunch of popular tweaks all at once as part of a theme, has a settings panel to do on the fly customizations... very useful!

There are separate weaks available for BG4All and for the quicklinks, but since Max Ultimate covers most of them.... theres no need for that.

There is however a need for transparencies, such as bottom slider, top curtain, top bar, softkey bar, calendar, etc. These customizations are not applied with max Ultimate and its hard to find ones for .1922 or which ones will work with tha manila version. Changing the cloks is also not clear, you can try MaxTTM but some of the components work with .1922 and most of them dont.

HDWall is also a great utility to play around with some transparenices but does not seem to have a .1922 patch yet.

If you come across your .1922 tweaks, please post them here.

Thanks

[General Questions and Answers] Iflyrc:
is there a way to have a phone based os run on a pc?

i am asking because i am looking into buying a umpc with cell tower connectivity, but they run pc os and as such making calls is possible but not easy. if the umpc could run windows mobile or some other smartphone os through windows xp or vista, i could keep contacts, make calls and send or receive sms messages (if it works as i hope)

if you search "X70 3G UMPC voice call demo" on youtube, there is a video of this umpc.

as in the video, the umpc has a small "phone program" but its limited to just a dial pad.

thank you very much for any info you can give!
[General Questions and Answers] ElCondor:
There's an emulator but I don't think it'll work.

However, I found something pretty interesting.

Look here: http://www.pc-telephone.com/

They say you can call PC-to-Phone and Phone-to-PC.

I don't know if text messaging will work too.

Good luck!
[General Questions and Answers] Iflyrc:
i am almost wondering if what i am trying to do is going to be the next generation of smartphone. with more mobile internet devices being released, its only a matter of time before they integrate that with regular phone features. i mean, if it has bluetooth for headset talking, you dont need to hold up a 1lb device to your head so it doesnt need to be as small as a standard smartphone which means it can use better hardware like a umpc has.

is there a smartphone that is as capable as a umpc?

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Henchman:
when you say push, you mean immediate sending and receiving of messages?

If so, then that's exactly what they do.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] huzz:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Push_technology

Immediate sending and receiving is not PUSH. Basically if you are signed on and even if the application is closed you will receive notification of the message sent. Just like how Gmail works instead of email though this is related to IM chat.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dave-on-android:
I suspect that the way you're using the term 'push' here is a reference to Apple's oh-hell-no-we-won't-allow-multitasking-but-here's-a-polished-dog-turd way of letting apps receive out of band notifications without leaving them running.

This isn't necessary on Android, as it supports multitasking - applications can mark their threads as backgroundable. Most IM apps will, therefore, keep running their network code in the background meaning you can get messages all the time. A good indicator whether this is the case is if the application has an 'Exit' or 'Quit' option in its menu.

Blah blah blah Android > iPhone blah blah blah ;)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] huzz:
Thank you. I understand better.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Casao:
Sorry, but no. Running the network code in the background uses up ram and battery life that having built in push support doesn't use. Every mobile OS beside Android supports push for IM services on some application, and it's a pretty ****ty situation for Android.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Henchman:
Running a push client eats battery life as well, doesn't it.

And I'm sure there us still a service running in the background to deal with the push client as well.

All using RAM, resources and battery power.

The reason these other phones run longer like sidekicks etc, us because they're not running a 1ghz minicomputer with powerful graphics capabilities.

My battery last as long as my daughters iPhone.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dave-on-android:
Other than the fact that to get push notifications in the first place, there needs to be...network code running in the background.

Some apps chew more data than others, sure. That's a case of bad code, not bad OS design. If you're setting up lots of processor and network intensive stuff in a Service, you're doing it wrong.

Denying developers and users the ability to run anything in the background goes down the iPhone route - and that way madness lies.
