The only other thing that I have heard works here is when you are on the setup screen and it is unresponsive to walk away and do some dishes or something and come back later to see if it works. I know this is a long shot but it worked for Conap.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Alrlight =p well hopefully this issue can be resolved.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
hey bro u still running the update ? and if so is all good ?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Haven't had any issues with it. Made a few calls, checked gps, using wifi right now and it's all good.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Man I can't go back to 2.1 roms now >_>
[Droid Eris Android Development] BigBeefy:
Just an update on my situation.

I downloaded and flashed KaosFroyo rom and installed smoothly. I am not sure what is different with this version.

I'll try again later.

Thanks again for all the help guys.
[Droid Eris Android Development] ericFuels999:
I'm excited for the update!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
It's fast =p very stable so far.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Did you update to the new radio?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Yes I've been on the new radio for a while.
[Droid Eris Android Development] ericFuels999:
I'd be willing to test too, if need be. Just PM me the link and I'll give it a go.
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
it keeps saying touch the android when i flash...but i touch it..it turns white..then nothing happens.. help please?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Touch the four corners to bypass that. Start with top left, then top right, then bottom right, then bottom left.
[Droid Eris Android Development] dwcasey:
Pause key does not work when using the streaming media player for audio ( via yourmuze.fm, listening to radio ).

Menu button does not do anything.

I tap the screen, I get a pop-up reverse-pause-fastforward and they don't respond.

I tap the screen, get the pop-up, press menu and it disappears, so it's repsonding to input. I guess the froyo player is stripped down? Or is this a 3rd party player?
[Droid Eris Android Development] adam29617:
This ROM is great TAZZ good job!!!!!!
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
ok i tried to reflash this after i put another rom on..i did a complete wipe but get a continuous boot loop..what do i do?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Emunny:
now im gonna see if will work without giving me that sd card error since i reformatted

WTF it still is giving me errors on my sd card saying its un readable

i reformatted it and everything

not working sorry man would love to try but it keeps on not reading my sd card after ive reformatted through my cpu and through my phone
[Droid Eris Android Development] Jp50:
reformat the sd card in the phone - boot into amons ra recovery. select partition sd card - select 0 for the values. this will create single fat32. froyo roms do not want to see any partitions. make sure your battery is fully charged too.

both wipes, reflash, reboot. wait.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Jp50:
any suggestions on vm heap sizes? I set it to 24, read on another forum someone using kaos froyo used this value.

also have jit on, comp cache on, dithering off.

ran setcpu for a bit, maxed out at 604. started to get a little laggy, set it back down to 240-528 and it actually seems more stable and a little quicker this way? maybe my imagination?

Thanks for a great froyo rom! I'm rom hopping this week and getting my feet wet with froyo.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Uninstall setcpu if you're stuck at 604 with it... you'll be faster without it.

If you can't break 710mhz leave compcache off.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Ddukes76:
That's what I'm waiting for! Woohoo! Noti bar, icons, wallpaper...bring it Tazz...
[Droid Eris Android Development] gpa111:
Anyone try the new gapps listed on Android news today?
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
whats new in it?
[Droid Eris Android Development] gpa111:
Mainly a new gmail, which you can copy paste from emails and it has floating reply options.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Jp50:
i uninstalled setcpu last night. noticed that overall speed espeically on the browser was considerably slower. reinstalled this morning and its quick again. I did uncheck comp cache and can't say I really noticed any difference.

If I set setcpu to 710, it freezes. I can run 710 on 2.1 roms that are already internally oc'd to 710, but if I manually select 710 it's freezing.

[Droid Eris Android Development] Jp50:
now that is just too cool. Gonna download tonight.
[Droid Eris Android Development] sa12awr:
oo new gmail, looking into that today..

I don't want to be a pest but once again, I'm not having any luck with good battery life. 3 hours ago it was at 100% and now it's at 70% with only some moderate use. my girlfriends is at 50% with even less use (running v8 as well)

again I have drained the batt etc.. have auto brightness off, even using an auto task killer and screebl running. any thoughts? this rom is kick ass and I'd like to get at least a full day out of it!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Phaded:
I got 6 hours of battery today. Heavy use.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
im not sure about anyone else , but im using this phone all day testing it ,yesterday at 7am i had 100 % ,, wanted to see the issue with battery life ,, so startin at that time , i put on gps , opened browser (with wi fi obviously ) watched abunch of videos , did this for a few hous , switched to music for a few hours ,, gps on the whole time ,, went to bed at 12am , left gps , browser ,had pandoro radio on all night , woke up at 7am this morning , still had 68 % , i have never drained my battery like everyone else , its 3 now and i still have 55%
[Droid Eris Android Development] gpa111:
I use mine moderate and I'm still at 60% after 10 hours usually.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Jp50:
i'm at 77% now (12:05pm) was at 100% at 6:00am. Did some light internet surfing, checked voicemail. downloaded setcpu and installed. This seems normal to me.

I do seem to recall getting abit more battery life out of xtr rom but that's a 2.1 and i much prefer 2.2 froyo.

i don't know if i can go back to 2.1
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
now that i dont have cell service my phone is the same way..i was ay 68% for 11 hours (as in lost no charge)..when i had cell service i got 16hrs on a single charge
[Droid Eris Android Development] sa12awr:
so weird. I'm using a low cpu lwp and my girlfriend is not, yet her batt suffered more than mine. I'm really wondering what the deal is.. my battery usage stats seem normal, with display using the most under 40% most of the time. I suppose it's possible I just need a new battery? I have only had the phone since march though..
[Droid Eris Android Development] sa12awr:
maybe that's related since tazz is using an eris w/out service..

but if that has a lot to do with it, you would think something like "cell standby" would be using a higher percentage of battery?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
I dunno could be but that dont explain why hungry man get just as good batttery lfe :confused:
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
yeah that or android....i know all my interent apps and sync no longer eats battery...i know my best days are days i use espn and other internet heavy apps the least
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
what size battery does hungry man have? maybe he uses more 2g and wifi when possible? maybe the apps he uses send and receive data more efficiently. i read an article about that earlier.
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheTod:
Hey all, I came from the EE4 world only to find this ROM KICKS!!! Battery is better but do find it drained if using just about anything. I am on 3G most of the time. Maybe from what you are saying this is to be expected. I have found need to reboot a couple of times, i.e. dual icons in the app drawer, bluetooth acting spotty, pandora hanging the phone...

I would like to hook up to corp exch server for email but got the nice notice that they can brick my phone with this ROM which they did not have the ability with 2.1.....would it be nice to take that out and act like 2.1?? hmmmmm?

Love this ROM....
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheTod:
I do have a question for someone...

Why does the 2G icon in the power control widget only light up 1/2 way? and nothing happens when you touch it. Also, see the 3G icon by the bars on the notice bar...so the question begs...am I using 2G? 3G but only sometimes?
[Droid Eris Android Development] gemro311:
Perhaps battery life would be better if you uninstalled auto task killer and screebl. Froyo does not need it. Also uncheck windows animation if you are not using it

I have the extended battery..charged to 100% early yesterday. Now at 58% @3 Pm Edt

Using Gps and Pandora almost the entire time. At night I put this into airplane mode.

So we aren't awakened .

Gmail and twitter are set to check manually and all vibration settings are off. Not running any task killers. Set CPU is also set at 729 Max ..when screen is off it is set for 245/245.

Hope this helps
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
task killers arent always needed..but its nice to kill apps like espn that dont have a proper way to close them. and when i get down to like 20 mb of free ram..the phone does start to lag..i dont use it often, but my task killer is something i like to have. not everyone needs them. but i like them
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheTod:
Another nagging question...why is it when you pick an app from the Market, it takes so long to get going? Behavior prior was that the download began right away and now lags for a bit. Anyone?
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
I've noticed that with v8 and v9 also. This is probably a Google Market issue or possibly related to the Cyanogen ROM itself, not what tazz has done.
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
I'm confused about this ROM and the "buufed" ROM of yours. Are you stopping on this one and continuing with the other now that you've gotten them at the same "version" ?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
let me see what i can do
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
There was a recent update to Google Apps and as I read elsewhere, Cyanogen has been "including" the updated version. Not sure how accurate that is with the legal issues between Google and Cyanogen though...

Where do you get the Google Apps package, from darchstar ? Do you know where he gets it ? I don't think it's directly from Google.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
the updated one ive been gettin from conap
[Droid Eris Android Development] agentofchaos:
V9...? O.o

[Droid Eris Android Development] Phaded:
As for me and my battery...

I'm on 3G all day, my facebook, twitter and gmail sync a lot, I use latitude, play music and video all day and live poker among other games. Plus texts and calls a lot. As I said, heavy use.
[Droid Eris Android Development] waywardshinobi:
I just noticed that my mms doesn't work. My girlfriend had been trying to send pictures random things all week and I can't receive them. I've been trying to send out pictures too, but won't send either. Using handcent on v8.
[Droid Eris Android Development] iggypop123:
Just an observation, I use Google voice for texting but i don't get the blinking led anymore even though its enabled in the settings. Sorry if this has been addressed but I didn't have time to read all the past pages.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
LED notifications are disabled. Only way to stop them from sticking. Much better this way honestly.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Ddukes76:
What is the difference between the gapps u get from conap, and the one available from cyan...i downloaded the cm one posted a few pages back, just wanted to know if that was freshest one. Does that one include floaters, and copy?
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheTod:
Is there anyway to get the HTC keyboard on this? I downloaded what worked on 2.1 but this ROM does not like it (FC).

Can't use uninstall adw launcher. I downloaded it and then booted into recovery and tried to install it but it didn't work. It said installation aborted.
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
1) No need to uninstall it. Install another "launcher" app and it will ask which you want to be the default.

2) You don't install via recovery (normally). Download it from the Market and let it be installed that way.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
htc key board will be in v9 :D

3g looks stronger

im still dealin with the auto brightness

tryin to fix the power controll widget ,(stupid data wont toggle on /off)
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Interesting tweet from fedecarnales (Dev of Launcherpro)

"Android ROM makers: Have you tried tweaking windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec ? I set it to 60 and it makes finger scrolling sooo much smoother!"

Is this something that's incorporated into our roms? I'd be interested in trying to up this.
[Droid Eris Android Development] cjbeau:

First of all, Excellent work on this ROM Tazz!! I have been using V8 for a few days now and it is great! :D Looking forward to V9!

On the power control widget data toggle...is this a new issue that came up with V9, or has it been ongoing? I had a problem with the toggle not working the first few times I put the widget up, but now it is working (after messing with some of the widget settings...could just be I wasn't setting it up right the first few times....:rolleyes:)
[Droid Eris Android Development] jerryrp:
Speaking of Power Control widget. Is there a way to change the settings once it's been added to the screen other than trashing it and setting a new one.
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
Nope. I asked the author in a thread over at cyanogen's forums. He plans to add a preview option to show what it will look like before you apply it though.
[Droid Eris Android Development] icbeer:
Version 8 has been working awesome for a couple days now :), nice job Tazz. The camera fix has been nice too. Almost got my wife convinced to root and install this. Not sure why she suffers though the laggy stock OS.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Is anayone able to wire tether? I plug in and it doesn't even see it. Do I need to download something to my PC?
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheTod:
Using V8 and works great. thanks so much for the effort. Found an HTC 2.2 low rez build and put it on...works great and mic works also. I did load a new google build and bombed the voice search, had to readd the voice search from the Market. Now the voice search in all areas works and the HTC keyboard included. MMS is work fine but with this ROM or the app (not sure which) does not give an option from the contacts to send via MMS a vcard. I normally do this all the time and now it does not like vcards so much. Can email them but not MMS.....me only?
[Droid Eris Android Development] shawn.irwin:
Radio

What radio version are you guys using? I keep having that 3g disappearing issue when tethering. I hope v9 improves this issue, but it seems that it may be linked to which radio version is being used. Any feedback would be wonderful.
[Droid Eris Android Development] dro10:
No rush but when you think v9 will be ready. I like this Rom better than any other one I've tried.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Ddukes76:

[Droid Eris Android Development] shawn.irwin:
Awesome! So you're including an update to the newest radio in v9?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
its alwayz had the new radio
[Droid Eris Android Development] shawn.irwin:
okay, so if i've manually flashed an older one, will it automatically update it to the new one when I flash v9?
[Droid Eris Android Development] 56K:
This ROM is nice and fast, great job.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
hopefully real soon , sorry just tryin to make sure i fixed a few things
[Droid Eris Android Development] sword-:
How's the battery life with V8? I'm still using V6 right now. It was good but lately my battery has been running hot a lot and the battery has been running fast. I've used wireless tether, but even with it off I get ridiculously horrible battery life. I'm certain it isn't the ROM, but I'm just curious.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gemro311:
When it's done and ready

Like a cook in a kitchen of the best restaurant ..prepared to order.
[Droid Eris Android Development] sa12awr:
Yes, I'm getting horrible battery life too. I disabled the lwp to experiment and see if that was what was draining by batt.. but it's still really quick. with moderate to heavy use. uninstalled screebl and auto task killer.. batt stats say display uses most at 40-50%. puzzled as to why some peeps are getting amazing battery life with moderate to heavy use and others can't keep a charge?
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
Do you use SetCPU? The "wrong" settings with it can kill your battery quickly.
[Droid Eris Android Development] sa12awr:
Not using SetCPU..
[Droid Eris Android Development] sword-:
I don't use SetCPU either.
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
Just for fun - you can uninstall it later - install it and try these settings:

Main screen:

Max 710

Min 480

Create (1) profile:

Screen Off

Max 480

Min 245

See how it goes. If your battery is really bad, you should see a "change" fairly easily and quickly.

As for having just (1) profile, I follow the K.I.S.S. principle. I've seen people go overboard with profiles, IMO... To them, I say, good luck troubleshooting. ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
If anyone's getting bad battery you can TRY what I did. I can not garauntee this works for anyone!

I had great battery life going from 1-6 without a wipe in between (other than dalvik) so I took a nand of my V6 and wiped the dalvik, then I flashed V8 over it and wiped dalvik again.

I have incredible battery life and I have to admit that when I've flashed the newer updates without overwriting my earlier V6 the battery has not been too good.

Also make sure you're flashing when your battery is full, not like 50% or something.
[Droid Eris Android Development] sa12awr:
also, I posted this in the theme forum. if others are interested, maybe tazz will wanna take a stab? :)

[Droid Eris Android Development] sa12awr:
Ok, I installed SetCPU with those settings, gonna see how it goes today. If still not luck, may try the nand/re-flash method. Thanks for all the input dudes!
[Droid Eris Android Development] gemro311:
Thanks..have been trying out various settings ..this appears to be the smoothest yet..battery is better yet.

Interested in hearing about Mflops rating among y'all.

Don't know if a 4.975 is good/bad for the Eris. If not how can it be improved.
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
A vertical power-control widget ? v8's widget already has that option in the settings.
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
Some of us have noticed or experienced excessive drain when you set the min and max too far apart. It makes it appear that when it's clocked down to a very low speed (when idle) and then speeds up to max, that that clock burst really sucks the battery. That's why my min setting isn't very low. As for the "sleep" setting, the thing to watch for there is if the phone feels too slow or laggy to wake up.

Another option is with AutoKiller. I use the "Optimum" preset. I tried "Strict" once but things acted funny and I also seem to recall the battery draining. Doesn't make sense other than the CPU working too hard to determine what processes to kill ! :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] sa12awr:
have you tried adding the widget with a vertical setting? it takes up 4 across and is not very vertical.. the settings are stacked vertically but the widget itself isn't. the link i posted is the actual settings widget flipped proportionally vertical. kinda weird..

unless it's just my phone being wonky, which is entirely possible!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Phaded:
Instead of 4 across and 1 down, do 1 across and 4 down. Works just fine.
[Droid Eris Android Development] sa12awr:
am I missing something? I don't see any option to choose dimensions. this is the power control widget we're talking about yea?
[Droid Eris Android Development] agentofchaos:
That is a choice with ADW launcher

[Droid Eris Android Development] sa12awr:
ooooook, that's it. I'm using Launcher Pro. laaaame

Yeah same, launcher pro seems smoother to me, but you have to upgrade and pay for the ability to resize

[Droid Eris Android Development] sa12awr:
the link to the vertical widget I posted earlier is something that is flashable, for cyanogen. I tried it and the widget works, but it wiped my cyanogenmod settings and gave me new "settings" completely.

Okay, I'm running Launcher Pro too and just tried vertical orientation. It's bad, real bad ;-)

Anyone noticed their phone heating up on v8?

Could totally just be the weather but it seems to me that mine has hit my setcpu temp max a lot more lately.

So I went back a good few pages and didn't see anything on this so forgive me if its already been addressed, but sometimes when taking a picture I'll go to the gallery then back button to the camera and the phone will freeze but the camera is still working if that makes sense. I'll move the phone around and the picture on the camera will move with it, but no buttons work and I have to pull the battery. Again forgive me if this as already been addressed.
