Zach, do you plan on having the ability to get rid of more of the sense stuff like you did with 2 when you flashed the vboost pack.
[Droid Eris Android Development] corrosivefrost:
This is kind of what I was asking earlier, as I think the vboost pack replaced the htc lock screen with the nexus one lock screen, which is what I'd like to do, as I hate 94% of sense, and the lock screen is not in the 6% that I'll resign myself to dealing with.
[Droid Eris Android Development] SplicedX:
Is it possible to change lockscreens? the last rom i tried had the lockscreen from the G1. The rotarty lock was nice and it had volume kill on it to. Any thoughts?
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
Yes I am looking into a vBoost module for xtrROM3.0.1 :D It will probably be a while though as I am looking into other features first...

In the interim the old Nexus lockscreen .zip will work and I have added the download back to the OP

Updated 4/7/2010 Added back vBoost options for 2.1.1.

vBoost:http://zach.xtr.i6ix.com/xtrROM2.1-vBoost.zip

Nexus lockscreen:http://zach.xtr.i6ix.com/xtrROM-NexusLockScreen.zip

Additionally paintguy found a nice method for the opaque Nexus on earlier in this thread at post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6873493&postcount=152

i love this rom. its stable and fast(5.1 LINPACK!) i use it as my defult daily rom. its yummy. I was wondering though about the settings, the 2.1 on the asop roms looks fresh with the black and white set up. the question is is there a way to change it from the weird color icons to the black and white set up?

im not really good at the whole making or altering roms to my liking so was wondering is this possible or is it based on the framework of the rom or somthing?
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
Requires updating the image files in the Settings.apk file. 7-zip is a good place to start so that, after pulling a copy of the file from the phone, you can browse the files and look for the image files in the /res/drawable folders.
[Droid Eris Android Development] fiftyonefifty:
Sorry if i'm just missing this

Edit. figured it out.
[Droid Eris Android Development] corrosivefrost:
Cool, thanks. I'll give the N1 lock screen a flash next time I hook my phone up to my laptop. I'd love to try the opaque one w/ wallpaper, but changing the wallpaper seems like a hassle, so my lazy ass will probably just roll with transparent.

I'll post back with the results once I try it. :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] fiftyonefifty:
wallpaper

version 3.0.1 is running awesome, great work.

I was wondering though, there was a wallpaper in the 2.1 version that isn't in this version. I am looking for it for my girlfriend. It was of grassy hills overlooking the ocean. I tried going through the 2.1 ROM file but couldn't seem to locate it. Anyone know where I can find it? any help would be appreciated.
[Droid Eris Android Development] corrosivefrost:
Flashed the old nexus lock screen zip from 2.1.1. Seems stable. :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] jhart15063:
hey if i wanted to flash this and all the modules would i download them all and install them with one flash ..or start with the base and flash all individually?
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
That would be fine. you can also add them at any time... what ever your prefer

I would suggest that you download both the jitON and jitOFF plus Apps2sdON and Apps2sdOFF and just store them on your SD card as you may want to toggle them on/off ;) The default for xtrROM3.0.1 is to have both of these off.

Quick Boot is a free app from the market that, if you do not alrady have, makes this process quite fast as you can reboot into recovery mode.

Enjoy!

Origional Launcher Wallpapers

The attached .zip has all of the origional Launcher wallpapers.

Enjoy!
[Droid Eris Android Development] DaObserva:
thanks ill look into trying that out
[Droid Eris Android Development] fiftyonefifty:
Thank you very much. Keep up the great work
[Droid Eris Android Development] SplicedX:
Zach, out of curiosity, is the nexus lock screen transparent or opaque and will there be a rotary lock screen?

i was unable to get metamorph to work with xtrROM3 and apply the rotary screen that way. after i installed metamorph, it gave me a no available mem error so i rebooted and that sent my phone into a boot loop. I had to do a full wipe and reflash.
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
Okay will look into thanks for the feedback on metamorph. The Nexus is transparent and ill look into the rotary when time allows
[Droid Eris Android Development] GoghAndroid:
I really liked the HTC Mail Widget, any way to get it back for exchange mail?

or another solution... I like the mail preview without marking it as read.

Other than that, this is a very quick ROM. Thanks for that!
[Droid Eris Android Development] stroupified:
very fast rom. the only problem i have is whenever i plug it into my computer with USB debugging on it freezes then goes into an endless reboot. anyone else have this going on? got it OC'd Max 710 min 480 and it was stable in the white widow rom so i don't think that's the problem. any help would be much appreciated because this is very frustrating.

-thanks
[Droid Eris Android Development] caleris:
I have not had that happen. Have you tried just reflashing?
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
Man that DOES sound very frustrating! :(

This is the first I have heard of this issue however using Apps2sd can cause a number of files to get out of sync and cause some major instability so I would recomend a complete full wipe from amon_ra recovery including Wipe data/factory reset, Wipe Dalvik-cache, and Wipe SD:ext partition to make sure that you are starting from as much of a "known" state as possible then reflash the base ROM and then make sure to flash the http://zach.xtr.i6ix.com/xtrROM3.0.1Apps2sdToggleFix.zip before you reboot.

Good luch and let me know... :confused:
[Droid Eris Android Development] loki154:
Zach this is a small fix if you have the time. I had a circle battery.zip file that i flashed over xtrRom 2.1.1, that will not work with 3.0.1. I've tried to find the rom with the flashable circle batter add-on but its elusive. Do you have any ideas why it wouldn't work on this update?
[Droid Eris Android Development] ttran97:
Have you tried the metamorph theme that droidkevlar made? I'm using that for my circular battery and it works with xtr 3.0.1.
[Droid Eris Android Development] memert:
Great rom. Just succesfully applied the Blue Ice metamorph.
[Droid Eris Android Development] loki154:
the one i was using just replaced the stock battery with a circular one, no need for metamorph.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CrayzeeCarl:
Is the HTC Mail apk included in this ROM?

I just flashed White Widow and it's not on there. That really is a deal breaker for me because I need Exchange mail support and I don't want to pay $20 for Touchdown when I can have it for free.
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
The stock HTC mail and exchange integration is part of this ROM...
[Droid Eris Android Development] CrayzeeCarl:
Awesome. I'll download it then. :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] stroupified:
thanks for the help, i did the full wipe of the system and cache, reflashed and it seemed like it was working, i downloaded titanium and got everything reinstalled, restored contacts and info rebooted and used it fine for a couple hours and i even did adb to change the boot screen. now it's doing it again, i can plug it into the computer without debugging but if i turn it on while it's still plugged in it'll freeze then reboot. im not using a2sd either, i figured that might have been the problem but apparently not.

so close but so far away. oh and while it was running it was buttery smooth lol.
[Droid Eris Android Development] theGross1:
I like the Jit-on/jit-off flash that you included. I was able to put out 5.246MFLOPS @787mhz with JIT-on
[Droid Eris Android Development] SplicedX:
Zach,

I just turned JIT on and my linpack score jumped from 3.3-3.4 Mflops to 5.3-5.5 Mflops!! The system as a whole is much more responsive! No instability to speak of yet. Boot time was also a minute or two quicker then before. I'll keep you posted for any bugs. On the bug note, I did notice from time to time before I turned JIT on that some apps would hang up on exiting them(the screen would go black for 25-45 seconds). Other then that, your ROM is phenomenal!! Keep up the good work!!

Edit: Morning update.

Ran into a few issues this morning with my phone rebooting for no apparent reason. I backed my overclock down from 806Mhz to 787Mhz. We'll see how that works.

LauncherPro Beta on xtrROM

All,

Man for thouse who have not tried LauncherPro Beta it is worth a go... The 3D app drawer is just SWEET! Very smooth and works wonderfully with xtrROM!

Check out the attached screen shot!

;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
Nice blog on JIT

Wow 5.5 MFLOPS is the highest score I have heard of on an Eris!

JIT can cause some choppyness however I have not heard of upto 45 second blackout as you experienced... :confused: which apps?

Also following is a nice little blog on JIT that you may enjoy (it is talking about FROYO but us rooted phone users get access to the good stuff too :D)

http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2010/05/dalvik-jit.html

Hope you enjoy!
[Droid Eris Android Development] CrayzeeCarl:
Awesome ROM, Zach! Super smooth! :D

I have a question, though. When I go into Accounts & Sync, I get an instant FC. Also, I cannot link any contacts to Facebook, Flickr, etc. (it FC's again). Is this supposed to work? I did do full wipe before flashing. I think I restored Accounts from Titanium. Could that be the problem?

Should I just try wiping and reflashing?
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
These functions should definitely work...

I am starting to see a common thread in that Titanium backup may be causing issues when restoring apps (I think this is particularly true if you cross over between AOSP/CyangenMod roms to htc Verizon to htc sprint based roms)... I would suggest trying a Titanium restore without data first and if that does not work just manually install your apps back from the market.

Let me know!
[Droid Eris Android Development] SplicedX:
Zach,

while i was running JIT i also had a problem with apps closing for no apparent reason. The web browser would close out after a min or two and the market would try to open then close and return to the homescreen. I thought it might be that my OC was too high so i kicked it down to 787. Today it rebooted twice for no reason and at one point I was getting 67% without signal:confused:. I ended up turning JIT off for the sake of stability. I am running ATK. I feel it is needed and when i checked browser to stay running the problem with the browser went away. I want to turn JIT back on, but i need a stable OS. Should I wipe the Dalvik cache before turning it on and rebooting?
[Droid Eris Android Development] SplicedX:
So, wiping the dalvick cache before turning JIT on did the trick in increasing the stability for me. It took a very long time to reboot, though. So far no reboots or unexpected app closures except for the HQ youtube app that didnt want to open at first. I just kept trying to open it 3 or 4 time until it started working. after that it was all good. On a side note here is a pic of one of my linpack runs. 5.49!
[Droid Eris Android Development] loki154:
DroidEris1981 ... I'm envious now. My Eris is only stable at 768.
[Droid Eris Android Development] buff12db:
Has anyone noticed increased stability on xtr 3.x with JIT enabled as compared to xtr 2.1? I spent a few days on FROYO V19 and noticed a considerable increase in stability with JIT enabled, as compared to xtr 2.1.

There were a couple of bugs in FROYO that I couldn't deal with (camera mostly), so I'm back on xtr 2.1. I'd love to get on xtr 3.x, but it's too heavy for me to run without a2sd. I'll be making the switch when I get my new 16gb class 4 card next week. :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] loki154:
3.0 with JIT and A2SD seems just fine with my stock class 2 8gb card. will the class 4's and 6's make that much a difference? I've heard arguements for and against upgrading the cards.
[Droid Eris Android Development] SplicedX:
I picked up a standard 16Gb card from the verizon store. I love my corporate 25% discount on accessories (thank you lowes!). I have my apps a 4 gb partition and let loose with the downloading! Works just fine!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Arcalyth:
The < button on the keyboard registers as < and only puts in an &.

I use >_< very frequently in my texts and not having < is very frustrating... >_<

Any quick fix, or do I have to wait on a release?
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
Thanks for pointing out the bug... I will see if I can make a flash fix in the next few days.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Rockferd:
Just flashed this today, speedy! I flashed the social apps as well, and i can add my facebook account fine, but it's not pulling down anything from it. I didn't use any backup apps.
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
I think facebook might be slow today as i am also going slow on pulling down info on a totally different rom. Maybe all the world cup activity is overloading?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Rockferd:
Heh, dunno. It did now just start to show contact pictures, so ignore what i said :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] SplicedX:
Zach,

After a few days of running JIT, it has proved to be too unstable. Lots of reboots and hangups. Do you have any tips for making it stable? I have my eris OC'd to 806. Could that be a culprit in the instability issue?

Thanks, DroidEris
[Droid Eris Android Development] loki154:
It could be JIT, i've experienced a few reboots over the last day or so.
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
Specifically in this case I would suggest the culprit is OC of 806 (very high)...

In my experience ANYTHING that really pushes the performance of your hardware (i.e. OC, JIT, or a rogue app) can make it less stable. It is easy to forget using the technology that we have today but everything on our phone (computers too) boils down to simple electronic "0" or "1" values and if too many of these get out of expected values, due to whatever the cause, the system fails.

Zanfur has a nice overview of how his OC kernel works at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=679102 which you may find interesting.

Personally I run JIT with no OC and have never experienced a random reboot and get good battery life. :)

Hope this helps and I suggest first backing OC down to 768, 710 or less...
[Droid Eris Android Development] SplicedX:
That seems to have done the trick. I backed my OC down to 528 and all the hiccups went away. I have found a stable speed at 748 and it is actually faster and more responsive then at 806! Thanks for this awesome ROM and I look forward to any updates in the future. This is my daily ROM and from others I have tried it is far more stable and usable then the rest, while having all of the features that i need.
[Droid Eris Android Development] smokestackrn:
i love this rom runs soo good...when ever i restart phone though it wont boot back up(android skateboards) i have to do nand to get back to phone...almost every time...i do have jit and oc 767 but no performance issues just when i reboot...any ideas?
[Droid Eris Android Development] SplicedX:
I've found that when JIT is enabled it takes quite a while to boot up. 3-4 mins is about the time it takes for my setup to get up and running.
[Droid Eris Android Development] smokestackrn:
mine never boots 30 mins is most ive waited...reflashing now
[Droid Eris Android Development] atpjoe:
This ROM must be good...it's the only ROM I've used for longer than 3 days straight (a month total probably).

Only issues I run into consistently:

JIT forces reboots every now and then.

HTC_IME sucks for me.

Sense SMS app is still slow. It worked really good on EE w/o JIT so I'm trying Chomp.

I'll keep sailing on this boat until KaosFroyo gets really streamlined.

Fixed DroidXIME-xtrROM.apk

Attached is a fixed DroidXIME-xtrROM.apk. To fix do an adb push to /system/app to overwrite the existing file. I will look to build a flashable update and post to the OP.

xml special character issue in the inital port...

Thanks for finding the bug! :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] SeveredBrain:
Greetings. I flashed this rom a couple of days ago and so far it has been the fastest rom that I've tried. Also seems very stable. However I have been experiencing one problem which I've noticed with a few different roms. I'm suffering from the 50% standby bug. I have already ran *228 and updated my roaming programming through that and yet it still persists. I have tried searching the forum but the only references I've found to it are old and do not see to indicate a solution. I was hoping someone familiar with the rom might have a solution for this. I came to this rom from ErisLightningBolt which did not suffer from the standby bug. Anyone have any ideas?
[Droid Eris Android Development] smokestackrn:
it did it again what am i doing wrong...i cant ever restart my phone...i did wipe factory reset,wipe dalvik and ext all that good ish flash do updates install apps...it runs great then i restart an phone hangs...
[Droid Eris Android Development] SplicedX:
Try turning airplane mode on for about 5 minutes or so. That seems to do the trick for me when that happens. I usually get the 50% bug after a reboot.
[Droid Eris Android Development] stupidpopmediareference:
Love this ROM. I have been cranking away with this as my primary ROM since the end of June, a remarkable development since I was flashing a new one every other day. A few tweaks (Helix Launcher and Swype keyboard) and I'm one happy camper.

Thanks a ton for the work!
[Droid Eris Android Development] SeveredBrain:
Yeah, that does seem to solve it in the short term, but I was wondering if anyone had a permanent fix.
[Droid Eris Android Development] SplicedX:
its pretty much endemic throughout the droid eris phone, regardless of ROM, or OTA version. It's something in the linux code that causes the issue. i think? so far thats the only fix i have found that works.
[Droid Eris Android Development] SeveredBrain:
Oh well. In that case since I know it's not specific to the rom, this is by far the best rom that I've used.
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
Something to try is cleaning up your SD card...

First back it up on your computer and then delete all files and wipe it clean. Some apps store a lot of data on the SD card and if, like me, you are reflashing ROMs and installing apps all the time it is possible that missaligned settings have been stored on the SD card and your phone does not know how to interpret them on boot... At least this would explain why a NAND restore works...

Not much but should be worth a try... :confused:
[Droid Eris Android Development] dwcasey:
When you say "you can flash the following .zip files for these modularized features:" does this mean to copy ( the LWP.zip file for example ) to the sdcard, boot and use the flash option and select the lwp.zip file?
[Droid Eris Android Development] loki154:
Yes, that's exactly what it means.
[Droid Eris Android Development] dwcasey:
Thanks. Done deal :)

A weird issue after installing 3.0.1... the news & weather app isn't transparent anymore.
[Droid Eris Android Development] smokestackrn:
my issue seems to have been when metamorph is installed it boot loops...just happy to have the rom running again...sooo nice and fast wit launcher pro...rom is amazing zach...thnx
[Droid Eris Android Development] sydtrakked:
ok... so im one of the leak rooters and I am now running this ROM and loving it...

but I think I did something wrong (I mean I did) when partitioning for A2sd... now I can't push any of the extra mods... I'm really just wanting to start all over from scratch...

If I reformat my SD card what File System and allocation should I use???

FAT32???
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Yes, FAT32. Back up your SD first.
[Droid Eris Android Development] erishasnobattery:
So after a month or so of running Evil Eris, I managed to mess it up sufficiently enough to need to reflash. I decided I'd give this a try. Love it. Super fast and super stable with JIT...only problem is lack of wired tethering. This is an absolute must have as we have no internet access at work.

Has anyone managed to get this working on xtrROM or am I forced to go back to Evil?
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
Unfortunately no... only wireless tether which availble from the market for free. I have found this to work very well and use it frequently for work myself so I have not dedicated the time to figuring out wired tether...

My uderstanding is that Evil is based on the Sprint2.1 code base not the Verizon2.1 as xtrROM. The Sprint Hero came stock with wired tethering and I have yet figured out how to port this piece to our Verizon Eris code base...

I made the choice to stay with the Verizon2.1 code base as I beleive it is more stable for our device however I am not 100% sure on this :rolleyes:
[Droid Eris Android Development] erishasnobattery:
Understood. Unfortunately, wireless tether isn't an option. I work in a secure facility and they tend to frown on random, non-secure wireless connections popping up. :)

In any case, fantastic ROM. Maybe I'll use it on my days off.

N1 lockscreen

noob to flashing here...if i flashed the nexus one lockscreen and now want to revert back to the regular lockscreen, how do I do that? do i need to reflash and wipe? i'm hoping not.
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
Just a reflash should work... You will have to also reflash any modules or toggles settings from default.

If you are coming from xtrROM3.0.1 then you can go ahead and flash the new xtrROM3.0.3 update!
[Droid Eris Android Development] jasmarie47:
ok, thanks...loving this rom by the way :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] loki154:
