sorry for the long reply time I fell asleep.

The mirror http://www.nhcwx.com/xda should be fixed. I dunno why, but for some reason the permissions were 600 on that file. woops.

anywho, do not download the update.zip. as conap mentioned, thats a file for me and him only. while technically this update does not require a full wipe, I wanted to do it to prevent some of the problems from creeping up from people who did custom fixes with APNs, GPS and such.

The google apps restoring is because of the app restore functionality built in to cyanogen. In order to prevent that, boot in to fastboot and run this command before flashing:

"fastboot erase system"

This has already been said... but DO NOT use compcache. it causes major issues with this phone because our kernels dont have that capability.

Now a lot of very fundamental stuff was changed in this rom. So for those having battery, FC etc issues, there are a few steps you can take. First off, Dalvik cache in Cyanogen roms will not be cleared properly by doing wipe dalvik. It will only be cleared by doing a full data/cache wipe. To work around this, in recovey, run the following commands.

"adb shell mount -a". you will get an error about not being able to mount the SD. thats ok.

"adb shell rm -r /cache/dalvik-cache"

If after that you are still having problems, reboot in to fastboot and run the following commands.

"fastboot erase system"

"fastboot erase data"

"fastboot erase cache"

Then reboot in to recovery and wipe sd-ext. Then flash the 2.5, gapps-v2, reboot, set up, reboot in to recovery, and apply the mms fix.

If after all this you are still getting FC, battery life, GPS, etc issues, hit me up by PM or in IRC.

So what is a bad battery day?

I fully charged my phone about, I don't know. 20 mins ago. I've been on the internet browsing xda and I've lost 11%.

Is that bad? I think it kinda is. But I've been having battery problems with so many different roms, I really don't know what a good battery life is.

Will someone please let me know if that is good or bad?
[Droid Eris Android Development] dmullins80:
OK, I erased the delvik-cache file on root explorer. Now, do I have to reflash the rom or can I just reboot and it will work better?
[Droid Eris Android Development] rufioxiii:
Check my earlier post. I did that, no dice.

have to run IC3 ROM until this thing works better for me, maybe a few more releases.
[Droid Eris Android Development] vinylfreak89:
just reboot
[Droid Eris Android Development] vinylfreak89:
using the eris market fix may result in the loss of your verizon tab and/or some verizon apps not working. the tricks from it have already been applied to this rom. it is unnecessary
[Droid Eris Android Development] dmullins80:
Thanks vinyl, I reflashed the rom, I got the post late. :P

But I guess a fresh flash wont hurt any thing. :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] jtopping:
Receiving MMS, even with Handcent is still broken half the time for me.

Sending myself 3 MMS, only one gets through.

Yes I pushed the telephony.db update, yes I cleared Dalvik, even the manual method described earlier.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Bloodykiller86:
i think the reason mms doesnt work with the stock msging app is because that app is made for gsm phones while the eris is a cdma so maybe if we get the msging app off lets say the motorola droid...well if it uses a stock type android one... maybe it will work without the need of handcent. just throwing out ideas i had since i find handcent kinda buggy.
[Droid Eris Android Development] :
SpareParts is not showing up for me in the application list, but when I go to install it from the .apk file pulled from the image, it claims it's installed. Anyone else having issues with this?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tenzomonk:
Menu > Settings > Spare Parts ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] tenzomonk:
hmmm, did all this... apps still restored (including all dl'ed apps, etc)...

----------------------------

as for MMS... i hardly use... and i don't use Handcent (i actually prefer stock messaging app). if i don't flash the MMS fix... any concerns?
[Droid Eris Android Development] :
Thanks!

Does anyone know how to set custom ringtones for contacts? It isn't the same as Sense based ROMs and I can't seem to figure it out. :/
[Droid Eris Android Development] libraryclg:
Choose a contact, hit menu, then choose options.
[Droid Eris Android Development] :
Thank you! :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] :
This is a great ROM. Thanks so much!
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
Finally playing with metamorph with ELB. I like!
[Droid Eris Android Development] vinylfreak89:
send me a PM or hop in to IRC... will need to troubleshoot this further with you.

if you dont flash MMS, there's a chance GPS may not work, but thats untested.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tenzomonk:
well, sorry i missed your post...

i actually bit the bullet and just repartitioned SD... did all fastboot commands...

reflashed after wiping... all seems good now.
[Droid Eris Android Development] vinylfreak89:
glad to hear it :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] DaObserva:
so far 2.5 seems stable as ****. i love handcent but its kinda slow compared to stock. Not by much im hoping to see this rom become very quick like fastest stock based rom? other then the boring rant about how great the devs are who put there hard time into each and every bit ill say THANKS ONCE AGAIN! KEEP THIS MAGIC YOU PEOPLE WORK ON, GOING! keep the eris alive :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] pkopalek:
Now that all my ducks are in a row with this ROM, everything is excellent.

The fact that it is an AOSP ROM removes the opportunity to turn off Mobile Network, but 25% gone after 12 hours, including a half hour of wifi tether, is spectacular.

Battery life is actually excellent.

I switched to Launcher Pro Beta from ADW.

ADW is great, but my gf, who uses an iPhone noticed (even before I did) that the screens don't slide left/right as fast as SenseUI (launcher Pro is a lot closer), and they make the phone feel like it's 'hard to use' for her.

I agreed, and switched to LPB. I highly recommend.
[Droid Eris Android Development] libraryclg:
+1, I switched to LauncherPro Beta as well for exactly the same reason.
[Droid Eris Android Development] vinylfreak89:
juicedefender now works on CDMA AOSP builds... sooo.... i use it... for data control :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] DeezNotes:
This ROM has been working fairly well for me. I had it reboot on me one time yesterday as I was typing a similar post (so I didn't post that it's all good). ha

I also switched to LauncherPro and it works a bit better than ADW did. I'm also using Dialer One. I wish I can get it to default to Dialer One when I'm browsing my contacts or checking a missed call from the status bar. I can't stand that default dialer.

Navigation and all seems to work fine for me. The only issue I've seen is that there were times when I would launch Google Navigation and I'd notice that my signal would drop to 2 bars to an X (no signal) for a few seconds. The signal would eventually come back and everything would be fine, but I thought it was strange - never saw that happen before.

I sent an MMS message successfully after applying the fix (it didn't work before the fix). I believe I'm having trouble receiving MMS messages though? I'll keep trying.

My only other complaint is the lack of normal/stock ring tones. I know this is petty and can be fixed easily, but I thought it was funny that most of the ring tones were the goofy music ones and not just normal "rings."
[Droid Eris Android Development] jtopping:
+1 to this idea. Anyone try it yet? You can download the CM build for the moto droid and extract its apks and replace with your own. I dont have time til late today to try it, but I will unless someone does so in the meantime and reports no difference.

See attached apks, notice the size difference?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Rav20:
quick question i noticed when i send a text instead of going from 3G to 2G it goes to 1x. Not sure if that means anything?? also anyone else only have 2 bars showing up at all times no matter where your at?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Rossco_Pee:
I use "easy switch" to turn off data. It is mentioned earlier in this thread and can be found in the market.

Re: [ROM]ErisLightningBolt 2.5 Cyanogen build( OC, JIT, Apps2sd, GPS)6/14/10

I Love the Rom but miss the ability to sync my exchange, due to security policies I need the mail apk found in the 2.1 hero and Eris roms. The one in this seems to be based off 1.5. I've tried to push it and get FC. Also would like to have the Facebook contact sync. I do love that my Bluetooth handsfree now works as it doesn't in the other roms I've tried. Any advice in how to correct these issues is welcomed and appreciated.

The mail apk is most likely htc sense based, cant use it on cyanogen. i don't use other email than gmail, but sure there must be an apk that would do the same thing.

if you use the facebook app from the market it can sync with contacts, but i don't think it works as nice as the htcfacebook. my experience with it, is it like to sync wrong people and i couldn't find an option to un sync certain people.

Thanks. I feel like an idiot now...lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
You

can

turn off the mobile network. I use EasySwitch. I keep it off all the time unless I need it for something. Their GPS switch built into EasySwitch is also good because the widget does it all by itself - it doesn't take you to the menu. And I had tried another widget that was supposed to do the same thing, but the GPS would fail often when I used that widget.

Can anyone tell me how to make the battery life "Excellent"? I have AMAZING battery life with 2.4, and then moving to 2.5 it went to crap.

Minor bug: When charging, the indicator light is always green. It's usually amber while charging and green once the charge is complete.

[Droid Eris Android Development] rvpartsguy:
Just want to state ..... great battery life so far with 2.5, 17hrs on and still at 43%life

thanks for an awesome ROM
[Droid Eris Android Development] npong:
Any chance you mind going through the steps you took to do this, my battery life sucked yesterday when I attempted 2.5

Edit: does anyone use RomManager?
[Droid Eris Android Development] :
Mine is amber when charging and green when fully charged. Maybe you changed settings in an app that adjusts led colors?

I'm at 63% after being off the charger for 4.5 hours. Not great, but it'll do for now.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Seanydizzley:
I've been having great battery with this ROM. At 76% after 7 hours and 10

minutes. Which is definitely needed as I'm driving to Florida in a day. Love this

ROM! I might have found myself a replacement for TV.:D
[Droid Eris Android Development] rvpartsguy:
Nothing super special ..... did a complete wipe(data,davlik and ext)

installed 2.5 and mms fix

installed all my apps via Titanium, set autokiller to aggressive and

did this change to SetCPU http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6793198&postcount=641

This is the best life I have had on CELB so far

[Droid Eris Android Development] pkopalek:
ANY AOSP ROM, and any home program (Home, ADW, LPB, Helix, aHome), is MUCH less smooth than SenseUI.

It's just sliding left and right between screens. With ANYTHING but sense, there's a lag, a hesitation, sometimes no reaction at all, sometimes an opening of the program. Any AOSP ROM, cyanogen ROM, "sense removed" ROM.... It just doesn't feel quite right.

I had great success removing ADW and going LPB. And thank you for the EasySwitch info. I was lucky to only lose 25% battery after 12 hours, without it.

Anyone who re-set up their 2.5 to 'try' to be like their 2.4, just be aware of your sync settings. If you set up e-mail, the MAXIMUM amount of time between refreshes is 1 hour (ridiculous), so I just set mine to 'never'. My battery was getting murdered until I realized I put the refresh for it on 10 minutes (because I just picked like the fourth option down without looking, moving quickly).
[Droid Eris Android Development] npong:
Thanks I will try that, I *hope* the SetCPU will make the difference!
[Droid Eris Android Development] capcoward:
Just updated from 2.4. Never had any problem with the battery in that rom however before using rvpartsguy's fix I would loose like 5% a min. I wish I didn't have to use that fix though. Also I am getting a lot of system reboots for some reason.
[Droid Eris Android Development] rvpartsguy:
not my fix ....I think kejar31 posted it and lexusbrian reposted it ....

no credit taken on my part.....hope it helps people

as far as system reboots, mine rebooted once as I was uninstalling something other then that it hasn't done it at all
[Droid Eris Android Development] lotus22:
Love this ROM. Two things I would really love added to it are a black notification bar and Wifi Tether.
[Droid Eris Android Development] kejar31:
Themeing is possible with this rom via cyanogen themes and metemorph themes. So a black notification bar is something you can find and install yourself.

To get wifi tether just install the app via the market.

I'm digging the blue. May I ask where you got this from?
[Droid Eris Android Development] npong:
Re: [ROM]ErisLightningBolt 2.5 Cyanogen build( OC, JIT, Apps2sd, GPS)6/14/10

[Droid Eris Android Development] lotus22:
Thanks! Found WiFi Tether for Root users in the Market.

Also, used this for the black notification bar http://jbthemes.com/dr_cloverdale/Black_Bar.zip from thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=673044 And changed the color values for clock,date, and carrier to #FFFFFF in spareparts!

Have you tried reflashing the ROM?
[Droid Eris Android Development] atpjoe:
Trying CELB out for the first time. It's REALLY stable and bug free for me. Like comparable to Ivans which is pretty bold. I just cannot get the MMS to work. I flashed the patch over after I flashed the ROM. I tried Handcent, no luck. Incoming and outgoing.

Re: [ROM]ErisLightningBolt 2.5 Cyanogen build( OC, JIT, Apps2sd, GPS)6/14/10

I'd start by running this ROM without any of your normal apps. Something is chewing through your battery. What's your awake% time? I bet an app or sync account is trying to contact the internet.

I never use the set cpu fix, I just set my standby mhz at 122 min 245 max. Concerned about missing calls? Call verizon and extend voice mail to 8 rings instead of 6.
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
So I did some battery benching this morning. I unplugged at 0730, ran normal operations to 1130. This was after a fresh charge and reboot (no wipes,no resets). Went from %100 to %66 in 4 hrs. I then pulled up setcpu and changed the advanced settings to what the "fix" recommended (up threshold-60, powersave bias-200), and ran norm again untill 1530. Went from %66 to %56. So %34 loss in 4hrs in morning and %10 loss in 4hrs in afternoon after correcting the settings. Think what ever 2.5 was set to to fix the battery drain is not sticking.
[Droid Eris Android Development] capcoward:
Does anyone know how to delete the stock apps like the amazon store? I tried using the Estrong file manager to delete the files, but it wouldn't let me. I then tried to do this in the terminal emulator:

but every running app forcloses and I am now in a bootloop.

There has to be an easier way!

I love this ROM, I am getting 4.9-5.1 mflops without setcpu installed. I can also send/recieve pictures (after flashing the fix) perfectly.

My problem is Gallery will not show pictures I put on my sdcard. If I take a new one, it is there, and all the Facebook ones from SyncMyPix are there, but the 200+ jpgs I moved from my computer will not show up. I tried putting them in the camera folder, I tried everything I could think of. Very annoying, why doesn't it scan the whole sd card for pictures?
[Droid Eris Android Development] anonomouse:
jpeg format is unsupported i think.

try moving a png.
[Droid Eris Android Development] ejarmol:
false, the camera takes pictures in jpeg format
[Droid Eris Android Development] rvpartsguy:
jpg format is recognized, and I moved some pictures over and am not experiencing these problems, mine are located in a folder called "dcim", and it shows up in gallery as a folder named "dcim"
[Droid Eris Android Development] anonomouse:
was just a suggestion, i dont move pictures over much so i wasnt sure. best way to do it-IMO-is to email yourself the picture. or if you have a bunch of pictures zip them up and email yourself that. then download it on your phone. when you unzip it they should be in your extracted directory of your sd card. thats always worked for me
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
Did you boot the rom first before you flashed the patch? you need to flash rom, boot rom, then go back into recovery and flash the mms fix.

[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
Sorry:( IDK what could have gone wrong. You downloaded metamorph from the market right? Extracted the files from his mod to the Android Themes directory. Then just run metamorph and load the xml file. I downloaded the xml not the thm file. I saw that the theme file was an older format than the xml. Hope you had a nand to go back to.

Yeah good to have the update but I got the paid ver of Camera360 a bit back. I really like it but it is a bit slow to crank up.
[Droid Eris Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
It's good to have the choice of loading the other up quickly if needed, at least. I just had to share the good news, I've been invited to Google Voice! WOOT!
[Droid Eris Android Development] :
Yes, nand is your friend.

I actually got it to work, though by a different method. I pulled the framework-res.apk my current ROM, replaced all of the images manually from the drawable-mdpi folder and then pushed the files back onto my ROM. It's purty.
[Droid Eris Android Development] atpjoe:
Yes, I did complete wipe...flashed CELB 2.5 and booted....then the MMS fix....reboot...and then Google apps. I think..it is possible I flashed apps BEFORE mms fix...

If I have to wipe and re-flash again I'm probably going to just let MMS go because it's working realllllllllly good right now aside from that. Dont want to change my luck.
[Droid Eris Android Development] ejarmol:
I will email them to myself in a zip, that sucks though. It totally has me stumped, they are right there viewable by astro and when I mount my sdcard on my computer. Now I've discovered it's not just the pictures, the mp3s I put on my card don't show up in the music player. Why me :(

Thank you Conap for the 5mp fix! What did I do wrong here though

Edit: Emailing myself the zip didn't work. Only option as an attachment was to preview, and when I clicked that ASTRO opened to save attachment, I named it and saved it but once completed the format was unrecognized and it didn't give me an extract option.

[Droid Eris Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Re: [ROM]ErisLightningBolt 2.5 Cyanogen build( OC, JIT, Apps2sd, GPS)6/14/10

It sounds like something got screwed up so that Droid OS doesn't remember how to properly handle many or all file types anymore. Do you have an old Nand you can restore at least to see if any of these methods would have worked for you before. Or an app is interfering somehow.

i've edited my apns and can receive MMS all day long (great in fact...) with stock messaging app. sending, however, is still a no-go. but, to be honest, i HATE the android MMS feature with pics and resizing, etc... so it's not that bad for me! i always gmail a MMS if i really need to anyways (i have my contacts setup with their phone#@address.com)!

i've attached my apn file... i think there are 2 redundant lines in it... feel free to remove :) it worked, i was lazy, so i left as is. all i did was pull the apns from a few "plain" ROMS (eris official, plain jane... they were all the same anyways) and combined. in any case, i can receive MMS just fine... just can't send still (gonna work on that later tonight) :)

Just for anyone looking...

To remove amazonmp3 do the following...

Start Terminal Emulator

"mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system" (it won't say anything it will just go back to a # sign again)

Now type "cd /system/app"

You can remove amazonmp3 by typing "rm -r com.amazon.mp3.apk"
