Wait, what is wrong with Google Voice as mentioned in the first post? I'm only using it for voicemail, but I have version .0.3.0. Where does the problem lie? I don't use it for making or receiving calls, so will I be affected?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tuffdadsf:
Did you wipe? If so, your phone has to re-sync all of the stuff (contacts/email/etc.) and I noticed it took a lot of juice since the phone is running high. For me, after everything got synced, the battery life returned to normal. YMMV
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Only outgoing calls are affected
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Oh good, looks like that idiotic thread is gone that was posted.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sleejay:
i did that exact thing.

by following the directions.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TheBiles:
Thanks for the quick reply and the wonderful ROM! I really appreciate all of the effort that you've put into this. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tstack77:
Well said.

Damage-- Would it be possible for you to work with gbhil to release a little less-aggressive kernel like he offered before? I really like how it flies with ~80mb free all the time but it kills some programs too quickly when multitasking.

Beyond that the only thing left to do is enable jit...you have done a tremendous job :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] blehzz:
Everything is working for me except Facebook sync. I of course followed all directions :)

I deleted the Secret Modem thing and I don't get a sign-in error at boot as of the past 2 reboots.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] navalynt:
For me, just this entry:

127.0.0.1	localhost

I deleted the existing hosts file and created a new one with just this one entry.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] linkinx64:
+1 on this rom .... great job Damageless, will get you a Cerveza soon
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
That is interesting that Facebook Sync isn't working for some. I have never had issues.

If you can post any more details, please do. Or if anybody finds a fix.

I will try to break mine so I can fix it meanwhile :P
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Rizzo19:
So ive been running this since its been out. Battery life rocks, phone screams. No relog issues or anything. I love this rom! The dedication and will to get this rom out from all the devs working on it makes me glad I joined this community!

Wireless Tether FTW

:)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
And your Bank of America app STILL doesn't work!?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] spidercheck04:
well i was using the .9999 and i had the radio on from flips the 2.4... or something like that i was having problems sms not sending the mesg u think the radio is the problem???
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jerrygon:
Mine is to long to post. I just have the regular host file that I updated from adfree. Huge list with tons of different sites.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Could be.

I don't have the radio update myself
[Hero CDMA Android Development] measter:
Do you know when you will be pushing the rom with Secretmodem removed? There is another thread that says it is part of the stock eris.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
I will get something out that does it less aggressively.

I will work on getting jit too.

Thanks for your support!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sgtcody:
Same here. It's not the BofA app for me, but a news reader..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] navalynt:
Correct. Maybe the problem isn't just with the hosts file?

To clarify as well, after cleaning out the hosts file I did reboot the phone and I still get the same error as seen in the attached screenshot.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
I will push it later today. I want to wait before I remove it to see what people find out by removing it.

I personally do not believe there is a problem with it. I don't see any strange outgoing connections to servers in China or anything, but I guess you really never know. If you're that concerned about it, you can remove it very easily yourself.

You don't need my update to do that. However, I will be happy to push one out later today after I can be sure that people don't run into problems.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] measter:
Thanks for the update and thank you for your continued efforts the rom is fantastic.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aauussttiinn88:
just saw that someone snagged a eris and it to had those apks so i think it was just paranoia...i wouldnt bother with it in that case but damn this rom kicks ACE
[Hero CDMA Android Development] scott2020:
I get the same thing using babbler. I am running the adfree with latest hosts file. My hosts file is in /sdcard/hosts which did not exist before when I first loaded adfree. I had to create that.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] blehzz:
I am running Expresso in case that helps.

I wiped, formatted ext, loaded update zip, booted, completed setup, including logging in with facebook.

about 2-3m later i rebooted, but there was no sync icon.

i don't know what else to say past that :)

edit: i have tried manually syncing. i'll try to remove account and re-add it, too. -- didn't work
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tatonka_hero:
I'd suggest that if people want to remove specific apps, or add specific apps, they should be able to do it themselves by this point, or at least find out how very easily, since it's all over this forum. It shouldn't warrant a different release. If you want to do it, do it. I just don't see much point in uploading a different version to take something out that doesn't make a difference anyway. Let them take the things out themselves, rather than you spend your time to upload a different version with such an easy change.

Just my $0.013 (damn economy...can't even afford two cents anymore)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wtphoto:
ok well I am editing my sig tto include this rom so unless you want it called something else im calling it "Damage Control" lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TheBiles:
So is the new version the link in the first post?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
So here's where I'm at:

I am so tired that I'm just kind of wandering around while everyone is waiting. I don't think I have my head on straight right now and things are starting to run together. I have everything good to go except permissions on the data directory. This is not a difficult task at all, and you can fix it without me. All you need to do is get into a shell and chmod the /data/app and /data/app-private directories to 0711 and everything should work fine. If anybody wants to post a fix to what I have in my manifest I'll gladly update it.

Everything is just starting to run together. Sorry guys. I think it is better that I go get some rest and then come back in full force.

Sorry to keep everyone waiting.

Expresso is uploading now.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Ualdayan:
It doesn't appear Flash is working correctly. (assuming it's in there, I read in another read it's built into all the 2.1 ROMs) Sites just keep telling me they require a higher version of Flash.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TheBiles:
But the first post has the latest version that only lacks the permissions? I would be really great if you could timestamp these!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aaron130:
What problems will permissions on the data directory cause? Sorry if its a dumb question Im in no means even close to a dev,lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wtphoto:
dude you have done a ton of work I think that having to

chmod 0711 /data/app

and

chmod 0711 /data/app-private

is nothing

get some sleep its better to be clear and not have mistakes than it is to be tired and maybe miss something.

thanks for all the work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
You won't be able to install anything unless you do the permissions thing. It is super simple. My update will automatically do it when I update it later today.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Flash is working correctly, however it looks like I need to update the version of Flash. I will do that later today and put that in the ROM.

If anybody wants to compile all of the libs and modules necessary for Flash, I can stick them in really quickly. Otherwise I'll just figure it out when I get a chance.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aaron130:
So the fix that was posted I just have to do that myself in cd correct and everything will work? Also is the post on page 1 the one I should download?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aaron130:
Just to be sure I do this right. I go cd c:\android-sdk-windows\tools, then adb shell, then I input what you got up there correct?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Yup.

I have started to timestamp my releases by request.

Also have put up a donate link by request.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wtphoto:
yes the first page link is the latest

let me elabotate on the permission a little this is what the code is for my setup

cd /androidsdk/tools/
adb remount
adb shell
chmod 0711 /data/app
chmod 0711 /data/app-private

and you should be good to go.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aaron130:
Cool Ill be donating tonight FOR SURE!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Alright, well that's it for me for a few hours. I am going to take a nap for a few hours and then I will be back.

I hope to get the following done today:

Apps2SD

Newer Flash Build

Permissions set automagically

Other bug fixes as bugs come in

Let me know if you find any other problems that I should be aware of.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sporkman:
anyne got any screens shots or is it pretty much the same 2.1

but ill give this a go for sure
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Quick last post:

Tried something really quick to update flash for the ROM and it worked. I will be updating the ROM later today with all of the fixes, most likely all at once.

I'm open to anyone publishing any fixes for anything on here. I will credit you and implement them in the ROM.

I am also open to whatever the community wants to put in this. This is a community-based project. I want to put it up on a repo soon, once it is 100% working, by which we can then tweak it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aaron130:
Thanks man!! I

Like I said I WILL be donating tonight when I wake up for work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] corybucher:
just noticed when trying to flash the espresso version that I get a wrong digest error.

E:Wrong digest:

META-INF/com/google/android/update-script

E: Verification failed

Installation aborted.

I haven't tried the normal version yet.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tatonka_hero:
wow, 22 pages of 2.1 goodness. I think I'll wait and download the total fix though, can't afford to download too much in one day (goddamn satellite internet)...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Good news is that I finally got my phone to do the Webpage not Available for Mobile Banking.

That means I can hopefully post an update soon with the fix to it.

Not promising anything, but I will look into it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jmxp69:
I have two small problems:

1) 640MB ext3 partition for apps. Many (but not all) apps from market FC. Removing and reinstalling 100% fixes them, so it's not much more than an annoyance, but I have to think this is solvable. It seems like this happens with apps that have data stores on /sdcard like USAToday, Zedge, Maps, etc. It is very repeatable.

2) Stock SMS app shows facebook linked contact pictures, but not contact pictures unlinked to facebook. Odd....minor gripe, but still.

Any ideas?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] no12vn:
Dangerless 2.1 Rom

I love your work. Everything is working for me except apps2sd. I found that I had to sync facebook manually the first time but now it is updating like it should.

Can you help me out on the apps2sd? It says that it is enabled but there were a few errors before I received the enabled prompt. My apps are still storing to my main memory even after a clean swipe and new partition.

Any Suggestions?:D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] blehzz:
did you try the uid fix and then see if the apps from market continue to FC? don't know why, but worth a shot :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Sometimes the uid's get messed up.

I actually learned this personally while developing the ROM.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jerrygon:
Sweet...

10 whatevers....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Please post the output of when you type in a2sd

Just is Google Talk
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aauussttiinn88:
thx shoulda put that one together i need to be off work!! lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] keeneraver:
One too many minor problems. Everything works great, except I lost the ability to make/receive calls (audio went out completely) and text messages began to be undeliverable. Power cycled, issue repeated. The only other problem I had was with missing widgets, which I fixed by doing a factory data reset after fresh install of the ROM. Flawless other than that, amazing job with multitouch, BlueTooth and light sensors. Think I am just going to wait until the official 2.1 update.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jazzneel:
This is just a suggestion....but:

I know the 1st post has a lot of information about fixes, etc, but I'm not sure its 100% complete (with a fix for every/any problem everyone is having). Also, searching through over 220 pages of the thread is a little difficult/time consuming. I am sure it will be at 400 pages in no time.

Is there a way to consolidate this thread to just the OP's post, and ONLY the fixes which are applicable to this ROM? (and the OP or other experts can post as well for other fixes if needed) Then create another thread for random questions people have, like why this isn't working, what to do for this, etc?

Just a suggestion, obv its not my call, but just wanted to say that, and maybe it will help alot of people.

Having said that, I want to thank you damage for all your hard work you've put on this! Its amazing what people can do these days and how much they can accomplish! And thank you to everyone else who helped make the ROM amazing! :-)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jmxp69:
Didn't help. Just rebooted, fixed uids, installed another app, same deal.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] blampars:
Flashed this ROM the other night and was loving it, however I was having a problem where I could not disable haptic feedback. Tried to roll with it, but it was driving me nuts and I nandroided back to my previous ROM.

Just flashed the ROM again today, and once again, can't get rid of haptic feedback. Even though it is marked as disabled.

Does anyone have any suggestions for me, please? I did a quick thread search and found 0 entries for anything to do with haptic feedback.

Other than this problem, superb work on this ROM everyone. It's quite exciting to have a functional 2.1 operating system. Co-workers jaws have dropped when I let them see everything you guys have accomplished. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] looneylu:
did you wipe before flashing????
[Hero CDMA Android Development] n388mm:
i did not get the error.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] blampars:
Yes, I did do a wipe before flashing.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jeb0921:
So your saying if I have problems, I should WIPE before flashing?

I think I read that somewhere before, and before, and before....... (sarcasm)!!

Sorry, I couldn't resist;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jmxp69:
Can somebody paste the directory permissions for /sdcard?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bielinsk:
I notice with the facebook thing.

Add the facebook account in Accounts and Sync. Looking at it, there is no option to synch facebook accounts.

Let it do its thing for a while and check again, and there is now a checkbox to Sync Contacts. I checked that, let it sycn, and now my Facebook is linking to my contacts correctly.

Give this a try for folks having facebook sync issues.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jeb0921:
Quick question. I have been tweeking, pulling pushing for days now using my mac without any problems. But when I try to do if from Ubuntu, it tells me I don't have privileges for this device. Any help with a setting or something I am missing here.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] durandetto:
I noticed that multitouch on the homescreen works a lot better than before. I was actually getting a little frustrated with the whole "Helicopter view", but now it works great.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jtheking:
That's what I did with the other ROMs and it seemed to fix it. But I just realized that it could be a Facebook API issue. I know most Web API's (like Twitter) only allow a certain number for API requests an hour on a user\device\site basis.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] house1999:
I had Facebook sync problems at first too, but now appears to be fixed.

I started out by checking the Sync Contacts box, but still no linked contact pictures when I opened People. Then, I opened the Photos app and went to the Facebook tab at the bottom and their Profile pictures started to load. I scrolled through the entire list of friends and let all their profile pictures load. Then I went back to People, and then my contacts started to show the linked profile pictures, and the events started to show birthdays. Still no status updates though so I don't know if it's 100% working yet.

Don't know if it's coincidence or not, but try it if you are having Facebook sync problems. Thanks.

sometimes you have to do in the unix world

sudo adb command

or run adb as user root and not a normal user and see. Its most likely device permissions.

is a2sd automatic now? I remember you posted a command to make it work and has been taken down, if its not auto can you post the command again?

thank again devs for the hard work

Ok this is for damage and any one else having the google sign in I'm 99% sure I figured out the problem, the problem is the voicemail set up I tested it several times and this has worked for me.

1. Flash Rom

2. Go thru the set up

when i use my cell number does the same this and asks for relogging so im assuming that you have to use gv to get it to work sry to get your hopes up guys

3b. Set up your voicemail so Its not the *86 number.

4. Reboot your phone and you should be set.

I tested this several times and i used google voice for my vm also if you just flashed and every thing and your getting the error just set up The voice mail and it should stop asking.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] timezone12:
only problem i see is that siginal(bars) is very low and i'm at 1x alot of the time had 4 or more bars before and always on 3g thanks damage
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TechniShawn:
backup

Ok guys I need a little help. Before I install this rom I want to backup some things.

1)My contacts list (some of them I don't want to sync with google)

2)My text messages (over 10k of them and I don't want to back them up to google)

3)Bookmarks and cookies ( I hate having to retype all my passwords :p )

4)Calendar events

I don't care about market apps I can re-download all of those.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lv2bll:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] TheSeanTeam:
I was using Fresh 2.0b and I just switched over. It seems like the battery usage on the Damage Control seems a bit higher. Need to play around with it more, but has anyone experienced the same?

The Fresh 2.0b seemed to be very energy efficient.

I love this ROM so far, it's super fast and seems pretty full featured. I also like the new lock screen that wasn't available in the Fresh ROM.

Maybe I'm just imagining things or maybe I'm using it more, but I need to do more testing...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TechniShawn:
ok thanks. I'll give MyBackup a try. I tried looking at Titanium backup but I wasn't sure what files to choose for the sms db and contacts and such.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Darkshneider:
On your contacts press menu > view and uncheck Facebook. See if that works for you.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bielinsk:
I noticed that the Calculator changed. Not a big deal, but the 1.5 calc really was nicely configured with the red flashy buttons.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] navalynt:
On Step 2 did you actually setup your Google Account? Or just skip through to complete the setup. On Steps 3 did you already have GV installed or did you just change the VM number to your GV number?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] icm714:
I set up my gmail on step 2 and on step 3 I installed gv but I'm sure u can't just put it cell number or the gv let me know if u just enter either instead of gv install
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sefferdog:
I have my cell number in here for the voicemail and I still have to log in every time.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] durhamite:
Anyone having issues with contacts?

1) my google contacts photo's are not showing

2) it is pulling down all contacts and I don't see the sync option to only pull My contacts anymore.

EDIT: well I just figured out issue number 2.... scratch that one.

EDIT 2: scratch number 1 too. It looks like all of my pictures in my google contacts have been deleted. Great :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tyrnight:
the only issue Im having is that Gmail doesnt show Pictures within emails.. even if I tell it too..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] goku14238:
This rom is pretty cool. I never really wanted to try roms, I use to just have my phone rooted and thats it, no custom rom. But this is interesting and I cant wait to see what its like when the actual 2.1 version comes out.

Thanks for all your hardwork damage and team..

A few bugs I've noticed.

1. I use an app called mobile defense. When I go to log in to their site and look at my phone details, it says Mobile Carrier is Verizon Wireless. Not sure how to go about fixing that.

2. Facebook syncs with my phonebook contacts, but refuses to show their profile photos as their contact photo.. I had it running overnight to see if it would download them when it could, no luck..

3. When hitting system update, the settings app force closes, but this was stated before

4. Also the occasional message not sent from handcent or stop messaging app

I think that is all so far.. at least all I can think of
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jeb0921:
thanks for the Ubuntu help guys. I was able to setup su without any problems and now I can tweek to my hearts content on my linux box.:D:D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ccapasso:
I had the FB problem today, but fixed it. First thing I did was reboot into recovery, go to others and choose fix uid (i think that was the option).

Then I installed the Facebook App, forced a sync several times. After that, I went into a contact, clicked on the photo option, and that brought up all of their FB Photos.

Shortly thereafter, FB Photo's were syncing for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] slackwaresupport:
anyone know how to get the sync groups back?
