You are probably referring to the sense clock widget with weather... which only works on a sense rom.. which has been removed from this rom.. so it will probably not work. Even when you have a sense rom and use a secondary launcher, those widgets do not work within that secondary launcher.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Fordude:
DOH!

Thanks, forgot about that....
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] RavenWulf:
it only works with Sense UI, download fancy widget from market, virtually the same and free
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] thatduderob:
Anyone run linpack? How much faster is it without sense??
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Fordude:
Does this need to be flashed again?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
Well, what radio do you currently have? Power off phone, then hold Vol Down when you power on. It will load you into fastboot/hboot, and you can see your radio version. After installing this rom though, my radio is 7.08.35.04s, which I think is current.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kcbboy:
you should not have to reflash the radio but just to double check go into your about phone and check your baseband and see what it says after the underscore.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kcbboy:
Also if you guys want a clock with a weather widget just download beautiful widgets. It's about as nice as the htc clock but of course I still prefer the htc one.

and quick question. Is it necessary to go into partitions menu and make sure everything is mounted or can I just flash without doing that step? I think someone might've asked this a few posts ago but I'm sure if they were referring to the partitions or not.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
Nice Rom

My only complaints are...

1) You removed MyTouch Music, which I find to be a pretty cool little app. In any case, I added it back in myself.

2) You removed FriendSteam, which was the only way (AFAIAA) to sync up facebook contacts. EDIT: I think I've discovered the four files needed to add it back...

3) ADW.Launcher should be the default "home" associated with this rom as it is open source. Just my opinion, however. YMMV.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sino8r:
Eugene, any luck with A2SD yet? That addition would make this the perfect ROM. I'm just surprised that after you removed all the sense ui bloatware and that only 136 MB still was left for storage. I mean, I understand that the removal of sense mainly impacted the system space but you removed a few apps too, so... may be someone can enlighten me? But... on a lighter note... it really burns rubber! :)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jreed3786:
How do I sign in to my account???

Just one ???....How do I log into my account on the phone, like in all other ROMs? I'm not seeing any option even after wiping and installing. :confused: Maybe I'm just being dumb...but maybe not. I see the sync icon on top of the screen...but how the hell does it know my info, if I never added it in?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kcbboy:
he didn't remove friendstream. When he stripped off sense, friendstream went with it. It is an HTC sense app afterall.

Dunno why people prefer adw to launcher pro. I actually like launcher pro a little bit better.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jreed3786:
Never mind...Forgot it was Google that sync'd my contacts...NOT T-MOBILE.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] motorjonny:
I pushed the htcfacebook apk (facebook for mytouch) from the htc sync and it would not install.. probably because sense is gone...

please let me know if anyone figured out how to get the original facebook sync working again..

I dont think its friendstream.. the facebook sync seems to be a seperate program.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
I was able to restore Facebook sync and FriendSteam functionality with the following four files:

FriendStream.apk

FriendStream.odex

HtcFacebook.apk

HtcFacebook.odex

The best way to "install" these files is to copy them from the SlideMEROOT2's /system/app directory to the sdcard. Then simply execute this command for each file:

mv /sdcard/[FILENAME] /system/app/
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
Uhhh, yes, he actually did remove the FriendSteam app which itself isn't part of "Sense." The FriendStream Widget absolutely depends on Sense, but the app itself does not. And I find it provides a much better "feed" than the Facebook app found via the Android Market.

In any case, adding back the four files I previously listed will restore the app and Facebook contact synchronization.

They are both very nice home replacements. I don't think one is better than the other. But, to quote Cyanogen:
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
Gonna try this now, but is there any reason we simply can't adb push the files to /system/app directory?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
You can try it, but I've found that this method -- booting the phone into recovery, flashing update.zip containing ClockworkMod recovery, mounting /system/ and then opening an adb shell to execute commands -- is guaranteed to work.

YMMV.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sk8rbebop:
Thanks Eugene!!! Awesome ROM.

@HebrewToYou If Sense is gone how well does it allow you to select syncing options and such?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
Yup, thats what I had to do since I had to mount /system
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] shinkinrui:
Thank you very much for this ROM! The Facebook sync/stream is important to me, so also a big thanks to HebrewToYou for posting how to get that back. I'm at work right now so I can't flash, but I will definitely be trying this when I get home. Cheers!

EDIT: Actually, I just noticed the "Standard Android Boot" point. Is there a way to get the animated boot back? I spent 2 hours making my boot animation work D:
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] n1ghtl1fe:
I rooted, did the engimg stuff, flashed back to newer radio and installed, roms seems slower than stock? anyone else noticing that?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] barmanham:
.

Anyone know how to change the lock screen background with this rom thx
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
The removal of sense doesn't change it at all. You simply goto Settings->Accounts & Sync->Add Account and select Facebook for MyTouch. The Contacts app is the same one from stock, so everything works as intended.

The only difference, of course, is that you will never be able to run the FriendStream widget -- but that's a small price to pay for contact sync.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sk8rbebop:
I hated that widget anyways... lol thanks man
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
I believe you would simply follow the instructions in this thread.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sk8rbebop:
If you do it that way you remove the stock one. You can simply place a bootanimation.zip in the data/local/ and it will load that one without getting rid of the stock.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] spiderboyy:
Sound?

This may be a dumb question but is there any way we could get the boot up sound back?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] motorjonny:
Thanks! Can't wait to get mine back online.

I can't seem to get mine to install the facebook files. adb shell doesn't want to work with clockwork recovery so I've been useing Root Explorer on the phone to mount the /system. useing both adb shell and terminal emulator once the /system is mounted I come up with an error that it can't allocate the memory and my memory in /system goes from 170.54mb used 69.46mb free to 235.04mb used 4.96mb free. Any suggestions?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
Well, as far as I am aware, there is only one dependable way to 'write' to /system and that is through a boot into a recovery, flashing update.zip to ClockworkMod, mounting the /system partition and opening an ADB shell. If you can get as far as mounting /system, there should be absolutely nothing keeping from you opening up an ADB shell.

Your phone IS connected to your computer via USB, correct? What happens when you enter the command "adb devices" after mounting /system?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Just Yourshadow:
connected via usb, mounted /system, adb devices shows "HT05YPS09795 offline"
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
And then typing "adb shell" returns what exactly? It should ideally return a new command prompt.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Just Yourshadow:
error:device offline
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
Hmmm... What OS is your computer running? Dollars to donuts it's some flavor of Windows. You might need to find yourself a different set of drivers. I've only dealt with ADB on OS X so this issue may be out of my depth.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Just Yourshadow:
Yeah I'm running win7 ultimate x64 might be drivers but after all that hunting for drivers with the rooting process I found ones that worked and while it is possible I find it unlikely that they just up and stopped working. Thanks for all your help HebrewToYou anyways

Hello and thanks for the ROM! It's exciting to see development has started.

Question, does this ROM support tethering?

Unplug

When you mount your phone in recovery through clockwork, unplug the device, then plug it back in, then run adb shell...it should work then. It will says your device is in recovery

Has anyone been able to install HTC Input back on this ROM?

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
I copied the HTC_IME.apk/odex files back to /system/app from the SlideMEROOT2 rom and it works fine. Just make sure you use the process I detailed on the first page to put the files back in place. Using ADB push/install tends to be iffy on this hardware.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] marvinp:
Could anyone who's flashed this ROM tell me what's the difference between SlideMeRoot2 and SlideM. I have 2 annoyances with the current the stock HTC Slide ROM (which is basically SlideMeRoot2):

The HTC Messaging app sucks because it doesn't auto-correct. Does this ROM fix that issue?

The HTC Touch keyboard sucks

I don't like the HTC Dialer & Contacts app. Does this have the same Dialer and Contacts?

What all was removed and what was added?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
The only things this rom keeps are the stock "phone" apps -- Phone, Messages, etc.... and the Genius and Faves apps. Everything else is pretty much gone. This rom removes the HTC_IME input option, keeping only the Dragon Dictation and the Swype keyboard.

I took this rom and added back FriendStream, MyTouch Music and HTC_IME. It runs great.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] marvinp:
Thanks, I have another question. Right now, I have stock but I put LauncherPro. One issue I found with using LauncherPro is that when you hit the Dialer icon it takes you to a broken version of the dialer. It's on where more than one recently called contacts appears and there are no names or numbers.

Does this ROM take care of this issue? Can anyone confirm what they see when they hit the dialer button? Does it show only 1 recent contact or does it show multiple broken ones?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
I can't confirm as I prefer to use ADW.Launcher from the Android Market. I highly suggest you give it a try as you can assign whatever apps you like to the "action buttons" (icons directly adjacent to the "launcher" button).

ok this sounds kind of dumb but once I adb shell to the phone do I just type mv /sdcard/[FILENAME] /system/app/ or does it have to be adb shell mv /sdcard/[FILENAME] /system/app/????

Anyone know about this?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
It's not dumb. ;)

You type ADB SHELL into your terminal to enter into the 'terminal' for your handset. You should see a # and a blinking cursor to the right of it -- if you see a $ instead, type SU and hit enter. At this point you would enter in the MV command:

MV /sdcard/[FILENAME] /system/app

As far as I am aware, there is no working wifi or wired tether for any ROM running on the slide.

The legend rom had wired tethering stock.

I'm sure an updated kernel with ip tables is coming soon so we will have wifi tether ;)

*Edited to say Booting this rom right now, thanks so much for the work you are putting in E and devs.

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] nbetcher:
I'm not giving anyone ****, but why is there no wireless/wired tethering? Doesn't make much sense to me really... the kernel modules load and the NAT is setup through iptables along with masquerading. It's all shown in the Wireless Tethering app's log, but it still doesn't work.

The only thing I am intimately familiar with is non-embedded Linux so this is mostly a learning curve for me.

Eugene, can you comment on the technical details of this?

Thanks again.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] stainblue:
First off let me say thank you eugene!!! This is the most solid rom ive seen here!!!

But I do have a question, ... I know that the syncing icon staying on was a prob in the past, did we ever figure out what caused that? because when I installed this rom it went away ... I played with the rom for hours and it never was a problem but as soon as I installed the WorldClock, the sync icon came back...

can anyone else verify this?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kcbboy:
It's totally not working for me. All I'm getting right now is MV: not found.

I haven't started to use this ROM yet (using Slideroot2), but I know what kept mine syncing was the weather widget. Also, the timeclock widget (the one with the big font) tends to update the weather as well if weather syncing is on.

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Just Yourshadow:
Just verifing that you are putting in "mv /sdcard/[FILENAME] /system/app/"

I would double check your spaces and see if caps are on. I know it shouldn't matter but I've found adb shell to be picky
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] dominiiking:
Im typing this exactly MV /sdcard/HtcFacebook.odex /system/app/
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] faylix:
linux is case sensitive. MV != mv - so thats your first problem.

second, it sounds like you are typing mv into your dos prompt. are you sure you have adb setup correctly?

Yes ADB is defintely set up correctly I typed in adb devices and it seees the device then I go into ADB shell and typed in mv /sdcard/HtcFacebook.odex /system/app/ and now I get an error saying cannot rename..?? I have the files on the root of my SD card thats the right place to have the files correct?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Just Yourshadow:
place a space between the /sdcard/ and the htcfacebook.odex like this mv /sdcard/ htcfacebook.odex /system/app/

damn now it says overwrite? then i typed in Y or yes and then it says cannot rename.. Im having so much trouble with this can I do it from terminal from the phone??
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Just Yourshadow:
I'm sorry forget the space between the sdcard/ and the file name. my PC was doing something funky

I would double check that your system is mounted and try again. other than that your going to have to either wait for someone more knowledgeable than me to step in and answer your questions or you can continue to play around with it which seems to be a recurring theme with these phones.
