ZenEXP 0.9.4.2-PORT Rev 3 is up! It includes a few new features;

MMS Fixed (Install the main ROM, reboot and setup the device. Reboot into recovery and install the MMS fix - Download MMS fix in the first post)

New Kernel

Overclocking (up to 710Mhz)

New Apps

SetCPU (Use Autodetect Frequencies)

Wired Tether (since Wifi isn't working, use this to tether for now)

Google Maps + Navigation v4.1.1

XDA Developers by TapaTalk v1.0

With that out of the way, I'll begin working on getting the following functioning for, hopefully, Rev 4;

WiFi

Bluetooth

Accelerometer

Trackball LED Notification

Screen not shutting off in-call

Download link should be up in 5 minutes for Rev 3, Enjoy!

-mak

edit: Link is now up. Make sure you install the ROM itself, reboot into the phone and set it up, reboot into recovery and install the MMS fix and reboot into the phone again or your MMS won't work :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] zwade01:
Do I need to wipe before going from Rev2 to 3?
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
Not completely necessary, no.. but if you haven't installed Rev3 yet, hold off as I'm about to unload Rev4 with HUGE improvements ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
ZenEXP 0.9.4.2(Port) Rev4 is now up!

I know I'm pumping out these releases like crazy, guys, but this should be the only release for the next few days. I've now fixed the following;

Bluetooth

Wifi

Accelerometer

..and, in turn, broken the following;

Power down

I wasn't going to release this at first, but I figured "how often do we reboot our phones? Bluetooth, Wifi and Accelerometer are waaay more important and should be released asap". I hope I was right :D

I'll get working on getting Power down fixed. Until then, there's a great app in the market called Reboot Control Widget and it's fairly inexpensive. I'm sure there are other, free alternatives as well, otherwise a battery pull will do the trick.

The only things left to fix for Rev5 are;

Power down

Screen stays on in-call

Trackball LED

As usual, download both the ROM and MMS Fix and place them on your sdcard. Install the main Rev4 ROM first, boot it up and set it up for the first time. After completing that, reboot into recovery and install the MMS fix.

Enjoy :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] zwade01:
Ok cool I didn't do 3 yet, I dl'ed it last night and was gonna flash today. So no wipe for 4 either then?
[Droid Eris Android Development] zwade01:
Just flashed rev4. Definitely worth the no power down! BTW, I already had Boot Control from when I used to run Hector's version. I power down all the time because I'm a railroad conductor and we are not allowed to even have our phones on by law. It's worth the dollar.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Renocat:
Installed Rev 4...my gmail doesn't seem to be auto syncing. I do have auto sync turned on and gmail is set to sync, but its not unless I manually refresh it. Anyone else with this issue?
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
You should wipe data/cache and dalvik for Rev4.

I'm going to work on those power controls soon, it shouldn't take much to fix them up. It will probably be a couple of days before I release the fix, unless I stumble across something in the mean time :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
There are reports of this with ZenEXP for the heroc, and I hadn't noticed that until just now when you pointed it out.. I'll see if I may missed a file when I implemented zenulator's fix..
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
Try going to Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications

Click Gmail -> Clear Data (Yes)

Click Gmail Storage -> Cear Data (Yes)

I just did that and sent myself an email from the PC and it sync'd, even after the initial sync.

I'll look into a more permanent fix for Rev5.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Renocat:
Tried that and still not getting email. went to manually refresh and the phone has rebooted twice now

Well after the 2 reboots, now I am getting my email...dunno
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
That's strange, I can't replicate any of that except Gmail sync not functioning.. did you wipe data/cache and dalvik before flashing? You may want to try reflashing.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Renocat:
I did wipe dalvik and factory reset before flashing. Gmail seems to be working now
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
I just had a talk with zenulator (the original creator of ZenEXP on the heroc) and he says he's having Gmail Sync issues as well. If he hasn't figured it out yet I probably won't either, but I'll definitely keep trying!

I hope it's not too much of an inconvenience for now :o
[Droid Eris Android Development] hector93:

[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
ZenEXP 0.9.4.2 Rev5 is now up!

Sorry guys, I wanted to make this an update.zip, but this is probably safer. The good news is that the following has been done for Rev5:

Removed some unnecessary herco files

Faster boot-up

Power Down fixed

New WiFi Module (seems to improve reception, could be placebo effect)

New Kernel (More efficient overclocking than the previous kernel)

I recommend wiping data/cache/davlik before flashing, but you can try it without. If you run into issues, wipe and reflash before seeking support.

Enjoy :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] Renocat:
It is a little inconvenient but luckily it's my personal mail and not my work mail. And I run the google talk client on my work pc which has an email pop up feature. Its a small thing, compared to all the work you do.

Do you know if it is fixed in rev 5? I am going to flash that when I get to work today.
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
Re: [ROM][05/11] ZenEXP 0.9.4.2(Port) ~Rev5~ Overclocking/FriendStream/Gallery3D

Unfortunately, Gmail sync issues are still present in Rev5. They should be fixed in Rev6 or by way of an update.zip before then.

Since there are no huge hardware related bug issues remaining, I'll be focusing my efforts on that next.

Just a small request, could you start posting updates to multiupload? Rapidshare is so slow compared to the other sites (megaupload being my favorite).

Other than my personal request, great port!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Riley1524:
After 2 wipes and reflash, I can't get messages or handcent to work. I get FC's on both and I even applied the MMS fix..Anyone else?

Rev5 install error. Corrupt file: system/app/VoiceSearch.apk Installation aborted.
[Droid Eris Android Development] carpsworld:
Do I flash the apps2sd patch after I have rebooted the OS once? I have tried both ways and it hangs at the skateboards. SD card is wiped and partitioned correctly.
[Droid Eris Android Development] ramseyja:
i cant get apps2sd to work either, hangs on skateboard. i've tried Darktremor A2SD version 2.7beta8, as well with this, installs and boots, but does nothing noticeable.

also it instantly freezes it try to overclock above 768.
[Droid Eris Android Development] carpsworld:
I have installed the rom and downloaded the aps2sd patch. I have everything formatted properly. When I boot to recovery do I do a Dalvik wipe before flashing aps2sd patch??
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
http://rapidshare.com/files/385966123/ZenEXP-0.9.4.2_PORTED_Rev5_mak.zip

In the near future, I'll consider a secondary host. However, as a Rapidshare Premium user, I can only guarantee that Rapidshare links remain alive.

The two of you have missed a step. I suggest re-downloading (to be safe), wipe data/cache AND dalvik cache and re-installing.

I'm unable to replicate these issues and I'm using the same ROM file posted in the first post.

Did you use A2SD with your previous ROM? If so, there's your problem, unless you've already wiped your ext partition.

Did you read the first post entirely? If not, I highly recommend you do, it explains in detail how the overclocked kernel works, it also says that 768 is the sweet spot for most Eris'. Anything more and most Eris' will freeze and reboot. This is not an error with the ROM, you're pushing your phone too far.

I would, since dalvik will have your apk's linked to the internal memory if you've already booted the ROM up once.

I'm not an expert on A2SD, since it's not needed at all for our devices (we have loads of room for apps internally) so I won't support the feature beyond leaving the functionality there. zenulator, however, has detailed instructions in his thread (linked towards the bottom of my post) that should apply to the Eris as well.

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

EDIT: I've updated the first post with the new requirement that wiping data/cache/dalvik is required, and not optional.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jacvald19:
hi

im tired of seeing double post of rom ports.
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
This isn't a double post, Hector moved on to HDLegend and I started a new ZenEXP port. :rolleyes:
[Droid Eris Android Development] jacvald19:
oh, so he wont be working on his? okay sorry my bad. but ive tried yours its really smooth, keep it up. lmfao! :):D
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
According to Hector, no, he will be focusing solely on HDLegend as far as I know. He has said that he is done with ZenEXP, though.

No worries, you're not the first to be confused about the situation :D

Enjoy!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Riley1524:
OK, I got everything working, but there some things I noticed.

1. The people widget FC

2. When disconnecting headphones, the phone never reverts back to the phone speaker instead it still thinks it has headphones plugged in.

3. Betterkeyboard always FC on reboot when phone starts up.
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
People Widget isn't native to the MT3G Slide build this is based on, so it still doesn't work. zenulator is working on this, so I'll wait to apply a fix on this one until he finds one.

I'll look into the headphones issue. It sounds like a driver issue, so it shouldn't be too hard to solve.

I'm trying the better keyboard now, I'll report back in a few minutes.. EDIT: I just installed Better Keyboard, set it as my default input method, rebooted and when it rebooted it works fine, no FC here.. what version of Better Keyboard do you have installed (Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> Better Keyboard)? I have "version 74"..
[Droid Eris Android Development] gzu36c:
I believe this was a known issue that applies to the Eris that is supposed to be patched in the new update. I could be wrong, but I thought I remembered reading that today at work.
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
Alright guys, I know why A2SD isn't working, it's because zenulator's A2SD update copies a new boot.img to your phone that isn't fully compatible with our devices.

I'll update the first post to reflect this until I build a fix!
[Droid Eris Android Development] droidkevlar:
Hey .mak, how you remove facebook? ;P

Thanks for working hard on this ROM. When I get some time, I wanna flash this ROM. Looks so damn nice, esp now that you got OCing and bt/wifi working.
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
You should be able to remove htcfacebook.apk (and the corrosponding .odex file, if it has one) to rid yourself of facebook. Friendstream will be broken if you do this, but you can remove friendstreamwidget.apk and friendstream.apk to get rid of it.

I'd wipe dalvik cache after you do this..
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
A lot of people have requested this, so here it is:

Remove 'iPhone-ish Icon Background Boxes'

Download RemoveIconBG_mak_signed.zip If you're using Rev5 or older

~~~OR~~~

Download RemoveIconBG_Eris_mak_signed.zip If you're using Rev6 or newer

Place it on your sdcard

Reboot into Recovery

Make a nandroid backup

Flash it using Recovery

Reboot and enjoy!

This ONLY removes the boxes behind the icons for the default theme, Nest. I will be releasing all of the T-Mobile themes modified to not include the boxes as a separate add-on.

If you already have custom taskbars/icons/etc that modified framework-res.apk, this will overwrite them!

NOTE: ZenEXP (the port found in this thread) will still come with the background boxes behind the icons. The majority still seems to like them. If that changes, so will the releases :)

If you use my work for your own build/port or offer it in your own thread, please give credit where it's due.

Enjoy!

[Droid Eris Android Development] Riley1524:
It hasn't done it the past 3-4 times I have disconnected the AUX cable from the jack so I can live with it. As-far-as the version of Better Keyboard, it's the latest build from the market. I will uninstall and reinstall to see if this alleviates the FC.

One more personal issue. I rebooted the phone this morning, I noticed that the 3d gallery is missing. What could have caused this?
[Droid Eris Android Development] droidkevlar:
i was tryin to be funny. rem, from another post, someone asking about removing facebook? ;p
[Droid Eris Android Development] sandman_nyc_316:
This Rom looks great. Planning on downloading right now. Only question is has OTA been disabled on this? Sorry if this has been asked previously, did a search but nothing came up. Thanks :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] xuser:
Will there be a fix for that?
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
That's good news, hopefully it was a fluke or less of an issue that thought.

I'm not sure about Gallery3D. I've uninstalled and re-installed my ROMs in preparation for the next build probably half a dozen times a day and it hasn't happened here. Maybe you've installed something that removed it?

I thought it was odd that someone asked here lol :D

OTA is disabled in all of my builds :)

There should be in Rev6, at least I hope I can implement it. Until then, our phones have tons of storage space for apps built-in already.
[Droid Eris Android Development] ramseyja:
zenulator updated the rom, he now at 0.9.5.
[Droid Eris Android Development] xuser:
Can this lock-screen be ported to this ROM, maybe as an extra?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=670034

Thanks for removing the icon backgrounds looks much better!
[Droid Eris Android Development] n1ghtwish:
this is an awesome ROM!! only thing that you should do is include the MMS fix with the ROM flash :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
I'm aware, but most of his changes for 0.9.5 are already incorporated in my build. Landscape rosie, weather and music are already in Rev6 (just finishing up some other things before launching it) and automatic A2SD can't be incorporated yet, I need to build it into the kernel, we can't use zen's kernel because it'll break wifi, bluetooth, accelerometer and a few others. Also, ZenUpdater would only update you to his ROM, which won't boot on our devices.

Rev6 is on its's way, however, so keep your eye on this thread :)

The rotary lockscreen is already in this ROM. Delete htclockscreen.apk and it should appear. NANDROID BACKUP FIRST in case there are bugs with it.

The MMS fix can't be incorporated into the ROM just yet. I can include it in the ROM, but the ROM will delete it and put it's own telephony.db in it's place which is for T-Mobile and won't work for us.

I'll try to include it in Rev6, but don't count on it..
[Droid Eris Android Development] andrew8806:
I think he was meaning the rotary dialer lockscreen not the nexus lock screen....
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
I know, and it's already there. I haven't tested to see which appears when you delete htclockscreen.apk, but the files are there for both "nexus" lockscreen and "sprint rotary" lockscreen. Being as this is a Sprint port, I would assume rotary is the default. I'll test it out and report back.

[Droid Eris Android Development] iloveandroid:
UPDATE: Nevermind

I can not get it to flash I wipe everything (except SD) and flash and just does boot logo forever, HELP????
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
Please be more specific, are you referring to the ROM? Please explain, in detail, the steps you've taken.

Edit: Are you referring to the black screen that has "Android" in silver, as the "boot logo"? If so, the first boot will take around 5 minutes and, in those 5 minutes, you'll see that screen.
[Droid Eris Android Development] droidkevlar:
when i tested this rom, first boot took me more around 15mins...more or less....longest first boot....just an fyi for other users so they dont think its busted. just have patience. it is a nice rom.
[Droid Eris Android Development] sunder74:
There's a metamorph...

There's a metamorph for that lockscreen also in the Heroc forums works well on every rom I've tried it on.
[Droid Eris Android Development] sunder74:
Will Rev6 ....

Will Rev6 be a full wipe or a flash over? Good looking rom thanks for the work...regarding a2sd will the darktremor a2sd flash over rev5 to enable a2sd?
[Droid Eris Android Development] SoCalSpecialist:
theres also a flashable zip in that same thread for it...

:rolleyes:
[Droid Eris Android Development] sunder74:
yup...

I like the morph because it allows you to change the default wallpaper in the framework/res/drawable....:p
[Droid Eris Android Development] iloveandroid:
How can I get.live wallpaper to work on the espresso launcher
[Droid Eris Android Development] rvpartsguy:
hey gotta question .... i really like this rom ....but have one pet peeve ...i can not stand the pink icons .... is there a way they can be change ?
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
I haven't actually timed it, so I suppose it could be taking that long.. it feels like 5ish minutes to me :D

There's a LOT going on in this ROM, so it takes a bit to load it for the first time - to others who haven't set it up fully yet.

It will be full-wipe because of the new kernel and A2SD support.

If darktremor changes the kernel, it will break the rest of the ROM. I haven't looked into darktermor (yet) but Rev6 is on its way and will be here very soon.

Unfortunately, the default wallpaper you're referring to isn't the wallpaper that shows by default in this build.

I haven't tested lwp in this build yet, but I assume that it won't work since espresso's launcher is just a themed rosie (HTC Sense) and lwp isn't supported in Sense.

Pink icons will be replaced in Rev6, for sure! :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] rvpartsguy:
where can you find morph themes for this rom ?
[Droid Eris Android Development] rvpartsguy:
I am actually suprised at the speed of this rom considering its sense based .... setcpu at 748 and i consistently pull 3.0-3.1 mflops ....and thats not in airplane mode .... fast enough for me .... and stable ....

just gotta get rid of the pink ....which i hear is in the next update ...so cool
[Droid Eris Android Development] sunder74:
Hero forums in the 2.1 mod catalog....
[Droid Eris Android Development] droidkevlar:
i briefly checked out this ROM. Cant wait for v6 so I can get rid of my old v6 of Aloysius. Keep up the good work. This port seems to be 1 of the better features ports I have seem. I love the notification bar. How it has your last used apps and what not. Very nice
[Droid Eris Android Development] rvpartsguy:
I only saw one theme for ZENEXP over there in a morph format ....... or am I missing something ? I am not familiar with metamorph ...so I don't know alot about it
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
I've got my Eris stable at 806Mhz and am consistently pull 3.3-3.4Mflops, this is with Beta4 of Rev6.

Already done away with the pink icons for Rev6, as you mentioned. I'm running Beta4 right now and it's very stable! Just have to iron out A2SD and it should be good to go!

Are you aware of the slide-themes.zip linked in the first post? There are around 5 themes in there.. they install through Astro or a similar application, they're .apk's.
[Droid Eris Android Development] rvpartsguy:
ya I know about the slide themes ...have those ..... they are cool

also, phone off the charger for 12hrs now ....@ 50% battery, for me this is good battery life, i know some get better ...... but not me

keep it up ..
[Droid Eris Android Development] SoCalSpecialist:
i have a quick question..

is busybox installed in this ROM?
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
It gets even better - for me anyway - when I use profiles in SetCPU. I can go almost 2 days without recharging, but I use mainly 3G/Wifi, and not voice.

It is, but I've been getting permission errors in my latest beta of Rev6, so there may be errors in Rev5 as well.

I hope I can iron out BB and A2SD for Rev6, even though I believe A2SD is completely useless for the Eris :rolleyes:
[Droid Eris Android Development] rvpartsguy:
i don't use voice much,,,,maybe two calls a day for like 2-3 mins

mainly text and email on 3g but i get crap signal at my work ....

if you don't mind me asking....what are your profile settings ?
[Droid Eris Android Development] SoCalSpecialist:
i said the same thing about A2SD at the beginning of the week..but no one wanted to listen.

and as far as bb im trying to morph some things..so ill report back if it is or isnt working.

HI .mak. I keep looking at this and would like to give it a try, however somewhere in my reading I thought I read that Google Nav won't work on a ROM with Gallery3D. Will I able to run the Nav program on this ROM?

thanks - looks nice - keep up the good work. ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] .mak:
I haven't read that, but it's possible with other ROMs that is the case.

I use Google Navigation and Gallery3D and I'm currently running Rev5. Both seem to work fine.
[Droid Eris Android Development] dianeofarcadia:
Thanks for the quick reply! Cool, gonna give this a shot. Ya, I could not remember where I read it and didn't see it here in your thread, so just wanted to be safe. thanks again!
[Droid Eris Android Development] rvpartsguy:
i can verify ....NAv works and so does gallery .......
[Droid Eris Android Development] dianeofarcadia:
Got it loaded up and it took a bit at first. :eek: But everything runs smooth, I had not seen the Gallery3D or Friendstream working so it was a treat. Awesome ROM/Port. Great Job.

my downer is I can't use it with my hearing aid, but really do like the look and feel of this! Keep up the good work, didn't run into any problems.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mrmikemcguire:
How is the Gmail syncing looking for Rev6?

Also, i know there was mention of a clear lockscreen already. I know that if you delete the hctlockscreen.apk from /system/app/ you will generally achieve this. When i delete it on this rom i get the same lockscreen but it looks like it is on drugs. Instead of sliding horizontal, it slides vertical with unaligned text. Anyone get a clear lockscreen working?
