:(

I recently messed up before doing a nand backup. So I wiped everything and wnt to reflash now I am stuck in constant reboot I have no clue what to do. I have never done a nand back up so thats not an option. Any ideas to help. I have tried multiple times to wipe everythign and reflash but the same thing keeps happening.

Update- I reflashed again and it start working.. Whew I was sweating bullets for awhile. For the record. Definitely do a nand back up. It was terrifying.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CGriffiths86:
Does this rom have the 50% no signal bug?
[Droid Eris Android Development] t2noob:
Most roms do.

And always make a nand backup.
[Droid Eris Android Development] rshibley:
Just installed this rom and it's working great. Battery life is way better than with XTR rom. Not as fast but I expected that with Sense. Great work T2!
[Droid Eris Android Development] drtchocky:
I know it's a fairly dumb question.... but can I use Launcher Pro in this rom?
[Droid Eris Android Development] mflane:
Thank you so much for this ROM! Everything is lightning fast. I flashed this to the wife's Eris today (did mine yesterday) and she can't believe how much faster her phone is compared to the factory ROM.

The only thing I cannot get working (on both Erises) is moving apps to the sd card with a2sd. I've placed the results of a2sd check & a2sd install below. This is my first time using (or trying to use) a2sd. Can you point me to a tut or throw me a hint? Thank you!

a2sd check gives me this:

[Droid Eris Android Development] droiderisuser:
Just a though and I could be wrong. but try going into the shell and typing

a2sd install

and then see if that works. It looks confusing if you go that way but if you go into root explorer and into the system/app you will see that you have a lot more memory than you actually do. If that does not work dark tremor has a thread for the a2sd that is on this rom on the main android development forum with tips and instrutions. Hope this helps.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mflane:
I'll look for that thread right now... thanks!

I do have apps in /system/sd/app - so are my apps indeed on my sd card? Yes, I'm a total a2sd noob. :o
[Droid Eris Android Development] droiderisuser:
I would say you probably got it but just to check open up root explorer then at the bottom go to systems in systems click on app. Once you are in that at the top it should say something along the lines of you are using 112MB of 1.69GB or something ridiculos like that. Since there is obviously not that much room on the eris you are up and running because that is the only way there could be that much room.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mflane:
Would love to check that, but the only explorer I have is EStrongs File Explorer... and it only tells me the size of a folder, not what's remaining. Can you recommend an explorer that I can use to verify xxxMB of xxxxMB, as you mentioned?

The root explorer part of EStrongs will not work with my PlainJaneT2_V2.0 ROM, It seems.
[Droid Eris Android Development] t2noob:
Its working i left the part of the quote that tells you that the apps are running from the sdcard.

you're good the programs are running from the ext partition.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mflane:
SWEET. Thank you so much. I wasn't quite sure how to interpret the output. My brain wanted to see something in those brackets, I think. I've been searching high and low for the definitive a2sd tut, but so far have come up empty handed.
[Droid Eris Android Development] droiderisuser:
Glad you got it working and I would definitely recommend root explorer it costs a little money but I have used that very often I can edit all the files on the phone from the phone change boot animations the whole 9 its great.
[Droid Eris Android Development] bpick:
Does anyone get Service Unavailable when they try syncing HTC Facebook ?
[Droid Eris Android Development] sing1gnis:
What steps are you taking to set-up sync?
[Droid Eris Android Development] bpick:
I am accessing Facebook for HTC Sense from the Accounts and Sync menu. The Facebook app works just fine. I think it may be Facebook. There are people (myself included) who are reporting this in the xtrROM thread as well. I have yet to be able to confirm that it happens on a Vanilla ROM. It may very well be related to Facebook+Sense.
[Droid Eris Android Development] intermediate Droid:
V1 has more internal memory like over 140 mb v2 has under 100 mb
[Droid Eris Android Development] mflane:
It's only been a few days since I installed this ROM, but so far it is rock solid. All apps and Davlik-cache are moved to SD, and apps are zipaligned. I have 133mb free and limiting my CPU to 528000 max, 245760 min with 245760/245760 on the sleep profile using SetCPU. The phone is still snappy at 528000 and my battery is lasting a bit longer than the factory ROM. Standby battery drain is the largest improvement for me.

I rooted my phone with the idea that I was going to try several different ROMs, but this one is going to be hard to beat in terms of speed. When I set max cpu to 710400 or 729600 the phone responds as fast as I can type/click.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mflane:
More of an a2sd question, I think...

I use TiKL - Touch to Talk, which is moved to SD with everything else. Problem is that I have to chose and save my TiKL contacts after every reboot. Is it possible to move a single app back to internal memory and have it stay there? I'm wondering if the app can't save its own contacts because it's running from the sd card. A big guess, mind you.
[Droid Eris Android Development] t2noob:
A2sd is either all or none...Have you tried installing it to the system/app?

I know its kind of a no no. but its the only way i can think of installing it on internal memory if you want to keep using a2sd.

FACEBOOK PEOPLE LOOK HERE!!!

I see a some of you having problems with HTC FACEBOOK sync please make sure you have it set right then go to the dialer press menu>People>menu>view> and make sure facebook is checked its how I have it set and am able to see my facebook contacts and stuff.
[Droid Eris Android Development] StDevious:
few questions.

1. If you flash the deleted bloatware ROM, does it have default fonts ?

2. If you delete the bloatware, does it have negative impact ? like deleting the footprints ?

3. Is the one with stock fonts, faster than stock ROM without overclocking ?
[Droid Eris Android Development] LexusBrian400:
Question... If I already have A2SD set up, can I flash this rom and darktremors zip at the same time? Or should I boot into T2's plain jane, power down, and THEN flash the A2SD.zip?
[Droid Eris Android Development] t2noob:
1. No it doesn't thats a different zip.

- Flash this to get Default Fonts to original

DefaultFont.zip

2. Not that I've seen. Deleting footprints doesn't give you FC that's an old wives tale.

3. PlainJanet2 v1.0 is the OTA we had before the one we just got in july.
[Droid Eris Android Development] LexusBrian400:
No matter what i do, coming from a rom with a2sd already set up, it just keeps boot looping. Bummer.
[Droid Eris Android Development] StDevious:
what should I do if I want stock fonts and also don't want the bloatware ?
[Droid Eris Android Development] CGriffiths86:
The 50% no signal bug is fixed in this rom, right?
[Droid Eris Android Development] t2noob:
flash both of these

- Flash this to get Default Fonts to original

DefaultFont.zip

-Flash this to get rid OF BloatWare

BloatWareDelete.zip

@CGriffiths86 Nope Most roms have this ...If you know how to fix it send me a link and I'll implement it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] StDevious:
Aren't those two links for complete ROMs ?

I'm new to rooting and flashing so please excuse any noob questions.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CGriffiths86:
I know that in the ErisLightningBolt rom that Conaps patch notes include a 50% no signal bug fix..so mayeb you want to talk to him. His is a stock android rom though, not sense.
[Droid Eris Android Development] t2noob:
First I'm the only noob here, you are learning and i understand.

Second they couldn't possibility full rom seeing as one is 2kb while the other is 204kb.

Third But these do get flashed like a rom except you don't wipe before flashing.

And these should only be flashed after you have installed PJT2 V2.0 If you need anything else feel free to PM.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mflane:
After rooting and flashing the ROM and getting some basic settings done, I flashed both files that t2noob mentioned (default fonts & delete bloatware). You place these files in the root folder of the SD card. Boot into recovery, and flash these files from there.

After flashing these files, I booted normally to confirm that both files did their job. Then I rebooted into recovery again to wipe the Dalvik-cache. When you reboot after this, it will take longer to finish booting up because this cache is being rebuilt. Be sure to do a Nandroid backup + ext before you flash anything. Being able to step back in time and recover is priceless.

[Droid Eris Android Development] t2noob:
Where are you running this from ? ADB or a terminal emulator on the phone?

If you are running it from a terminal emulator you need to type "su" before any

a2sd command. Because it looks like you aren't gettting the right permissions.

If you are running from ADB, Have you messed with the boot.img? Because it should give you SU privilages automatically unless you messed with the settings in the boot.img. Try typing "su" before any a2sd command see if it works.

If you still can't get permissions send me a logcat of the error Pm it to me because it might contain your email address.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Zerox8610:
So..... being all Deodexed and such, that means this is themeable right???? Well how would i go about theming this???
[Droid Eris Android Development] gimpydingo:
drtchocky, since you installed Plain Jane T2 a2sd SHOULD be working. I got the same error message when I was trying to config for Evil Eris, then I switched to PJT2 and it's working. I still get the same permission denied in the terminal (I need to try adb tonight), but the apps are installed to my sd card. Try getting a larger game like Raging Thunder LITE, it's about 4.5 megs. Check your internal memory before install, then check after. Should on decrease 1 meg because of the cache. Then reboot phone into recovery, go to other, then install apps+devlik (sic?). Reboot phone and the if the apps still work, then a2sd is working, also check the internal memory again, it should have increased.

For some reason if I type su in terminal it locks up. Dunno why.

Another note thanks T2noob for adding a2sd and mentioning the boot.img - I didn't see that anywhere until you mentioned it. I flashed boot.img, had Evil Eris installed, "bricked" it, ran recovery and installed PJT2. Still get the permissions in terminal, but looks like adb is the way to go if I really need to deal with a2sd at this point.

Also since a2sd is working (I assume boot.img was flashed during install) can I flash another rom and still have a2sd working or would I need to reflash boot.img??
[Droid Eris Android Development] drtchocky:
History:

I flashed Plain Jane and never could get A2sd to work so I tried xtrsense and that didn't work out either.

I just su'd in Plain Jane and got this:

I am going to try to download a large app like you mentioned. Right now my available space is 83.45mb before any install. Will get back to you.

UPDATE: Raging Thunder Lite 3.85mb - available space is now at 81.90 - did it go down too much?

What would happen if I backed up the SD now and repartitioned?
[Droid Eris Android Development] gimpydingo:
So try this (in regards to Thunder), reboot the phone into recovery, select other, select move apps+devlik, then reboot, you should get that space back. If Thunder launches then you are good and a2sd is working, if Thunder says it is not installed then there is an issue with a2sd still. I'm trying Evil Eris atm, will let you know the findings.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gimpydingo:
Hmmm, no go with Evil Eris and a2sd. I like Plain Jane, but Evil boots up faaaaast. Shoot.
[Droid Eris Android Development] t2noob:
If you guys don't want to memory to be taken from the internal memory move your cache to the sdcard by

adb shell a2sd cachesd

or

from terminal emulator

su
a2sd cachesd

and it will move the cache to the ext partition.
[Droid Eris Android Development] drtchocky:
My available space was still going down, so I moved the cache and am now rebooting. Where would I find apps on the SD to see if new ones are being installed there?
[Droid Eris Android Development] mflane:
Since you got the following after running a2sd check then you're apps are moved to the sdcard:

Darktremor Apps2SD Status Report

If you just want to see the list of apps installed, in the adb shell you would enter cd /system/app/ and then ls to list the files.
[Droid Eris Android Development] t2noob:
...That would give him the system apks....

If he wants to see apps he's installed it would be

adb shell ls /system/sd/app

For private apps

adb shell ls /system/sd/app-private

Simple mistake.
[Droid Eris Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Just want to say thanks. After much experimentation, I decided to cook my own stock-based ROM using the kitchen, and I had successfully done some basic things like overclocking and adding my collection of APKs, but it appeared that it would take some actual effort to get Apps2SD working.

This updated Plain Jane is just what I needed. Been using it on my replacement Eris (not a refurb because I found a local store that still had one in stock) since I got it more than a week ago and it is super stable! I use SetCPU, Autokiller and a plethora of apps and have NEVER had an FC!

Thank you so much to you and those whose work you used!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Sjflowerhorn:
yeah this rom is pretty much perfect as far as sense goes. mad props t2noob until i get everything worked out with my replacements and whatnot this had been my DD for the past 3 days or so. I love kaosFroYo but i needed a change and with vacation coming up i think im going to be using this guy right here.

EDIT: heads up i got 3 bad downloads in a row from mega upload
[Droid Eris Android Development] t2noob:
I Have all the Files up on the http://android.grdlock.net

For those who are having problems downloading them on multiupload links.

Side Note: I won't be around until about the end of September, so I won't be able to answer Pms, so If you have any questions pop into the irc at IRC

and ask the people in there they will gladly help you, or in this thread I'm sure someone will be able to help you out here also.

I'll update the First Post with alternate links.

I'll release the next version of PlainJaneT2 when I get back, it will be Png Optimized and include an app from a well know developer here on the forums for free, among other things. Take it easy guys.
[Droid Eris Android Development] dEris:
Few questions that I couldn't find in this thread that I'd like answered if possible.

1) With this new release, is there any dial out lag like how the stock Eris 2.1 had?

2) Silent Calls? I had it multiple times a day with the stock Eris 2.1
[Droid Eris Android Development] refthemc:
1) So far I've experienced Dialer Lag on all Sense roms I've tried

2) I have yet to experience the Silent Bug with the new update, and my phone was prone to bug out too :)

Pinch and zoom with google maps

Hi, I just installed Plain Jane on my Droid Eris, and the google maps Pinch and zoom doesn't seem to be working. Is there a solution/flash to make this work?
[Droid Eris Android Development] karib4:
Hi! Wondering if you could possibly give me some direction with this. When I do this check I only have 28.41 mb remaining. When I check in the terminal emulator with a2sd check it says that it is linked, but I have used up about 100mb of internal memory. Is that possible if a2sd is actually woking?
[Droid Eris Android Development] 4x4le:
