Yeah, it doesn't bother me too much. I just found it curious that it was the only launcher to display that behavior (in my experience). In the end, this rom is just too fast and battery conscious to care about little things. :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
anyone found any "home switcher" type app to switch between launchers since "home switcher" doesnt work on froyo 2.2?
[Droid Eris Android Development] JAS_21:
Home switcher works for me. I have never had a problem with it, and I've used it with all the versions of this rom.
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
I will try it again then. It specifically says on market that it doesnt work with froyo 2.2

Yep it will switch when you click launch, but when you set default to a diff one than what you are using it doesnt stick. Goes back to orig set default when you press home. Have to manually clear defaults in apps to get it to stick.
[Droid Eris Android Development] ericFuels999:
In my experience, it doesn't. It will allow you to launch a different launcher, but when you select "set as default", the setting doesn't stick. You still have to go and manually clear defaults in settings> applications.
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
LOL edit delay...ditto
[Droid Eris Android Development] JAS_21:
Sorry, you're right. The default doesn't stick. I always have mine set on launcherpro as default. I still use it to launch adw, just to play with it. I never noticed that it didn't stick, because I always end up staying on launcherpro.
[Droid Eris Android Development] greaserlg:
What is the keyboard that Tazz has in this rom? Also if anyone has a link for the .apk for that would be great. Thanks.
[Droid Eris Android Development] JAS_21:
I just found one that works for froyo, it's called ClearDefaultHome.
[Droid Eris Android Development] ericFuels999:
Good find!
[Droid Eris Android Development] williamwright:
I think its the Droid keyboard, but don't quote me on that, I've never used a Droid

U guys do know its easy to change them? :D. I don't understand y people don't like the lol I think they are great lol but oh well :D glad u like the rom tho. Ill have to go look at ur screenies

ok 10 char
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheGeek007:
My vote would be put out a vanilla ROM that we can customize using other tools available. From all the work you guys do on the few themes you do work on I get the impression its all way harder than it should be and theming should be left to the "professionals". You all talk about having to manually put things here and there to get a theme applied when in theory, there should be an app for that.

You guys have mentioned before about Metamorph for theming, you guys don't like it for some reason. Is there any theming/skinning apps you would recommend?

Also, I wanted to mention Flash, and figure out why you haven't added it to your ROM. Logic says if it was easy and the ROM would greatly benefit from it, you would already have added it. Looking at the specs of the Eris, it really wouldn't be able to run Flash very well, IMHO. I would assume this is likely one of the reasons why you haven't tried adding Flash.

Keep up the awesome work Tazz!
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheGeek007:
Been wondering this for awhile...

"10 char" must be a meme for something. Please inform us noobs on this inside baseball talk.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
FYI there is a vanilla rom lmao:rolleyes: and Flash is on the rom.. look and u will find lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] rycheme:
How about styling them like the dock icons? I really like the look of those.
[Droid Eris Android Development] neederishelp:
Replys require 10characters. That'd why they put that there
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Guess we could try that:D
[Droid Eris Android Development] wyzzerdd:
I did a wipe but for some reason all my apps and settings remained after flashing the latest rom, I thought wiping was supposed to get rid of all that. What am I doing wrong?
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheGeek007:
Doh! I shouldn't type so late at night. I make no sense.

So Flash is on the ROM, but does it work? Is it worth even trying?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Ok guys here's the deal .. im going in for surgery in a week..im gunna try and push out one more vanilla rom before im in the hospital for four days and who knows when ill be able to push out another becuz im tryin to work with Conap on something different..:D

That's odd I always disable google's backup and use mybackup pro. Well not a big deal since it saved me the trouble.
[Droid Eris Android Development] bradrobster:
Tazz and all, testing and speed on blackend v2 still very stable. I think it's a strong support of this ROM to show that all the suggestions coming in are themed/visual. What that means is from a functionality standpoint..the ROM is SOLID. At the end of the day, the majority of us want the key functions of our phone to work and work well. After that, we like the cool stuff that themes, icon's, colors, etc. add. ..lol...I say that but my daughter loved what Shed did on the Pink theme...she has showed it to all her friends...who are filled with envy!!

Again...awesome work and good luck on your upcoming surgery. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help test for you guys, I love to rebuild and test!!

Blah Ba Blah ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Iron crosses suck, and so does this rom. I'm out, going to run with the shadowrom crowd. At least there I'm wanted. They care about the people that flash their roms. Why else would they talk about making available only through rom manager.:mad::eek::D
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
yea the shadow roim is ten times better then this rom ,, why else would they need so many sites to host it on ? lmao

Shhh, secrets.
[Droid Eris Android Development] chimpsnest:
Yes!! I think it rocks that you built Flash right into this ROM, who else can say that??? Yeah, like NOBODY MAN, NOBODY, for an underperforming POS ROM that is worthless it's AWESOME! :-)

I get to rock the Flash all the time now.
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
lmao, kind of amazing that no one has commented about the FLASH yet... I mean, either people don't read, or people don't even really use flash on their phones.

All that hard work we did to add FLASH and only like 2 people commented ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] bradrobster:
LOL...yep, I am guilty too, re-read the op ..and LMAO :D:D...When I use the web on my phone it's usually just to look up something so not really going crazy for flash at the moment. It would be cool but like I have said before..stability and speed is what keeps me on this phone....AND...especially on this ROM....btw..my battery life has been unbelievable, for example, I have been unplugged since 8am..with a reasonable amount of use and still at 84% after 6 hours...nice.
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
To make the keyboard requires a computer. Which I currently don't have :(
[Droid Eris Android Development] GreginNH:
I tried it last week and looked pretty good.

I think I went back to Vanilla because i could get the taskbar to look right?

Dont completey remember, sorry. I do remember wishing more of the icons were themed though
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
I just did it from my phone. You can even just go to the site and look for the one I made today it is black. Just make sure you download the clicker app on the first page.
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
Yeah I just made a black and white one. Sorry I shoulda tried first :( stupid moment
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
No biggie, sometime I forget that I have a computer in my hand too lol.

I hope that your surgery goes well, Tazz - you deserve to feel better :D

BTW, I was also going to let you know that I was using Navigation all last week while in California and still got amazing battery life. I <3 this ROM!

Haha yeah. If I have time ill try to make one that's tazz themed. Right now its black with white keys and the Batman logo on the spacebar :)

replace the trackball

or just replace the trackball. Lots of broken and "bad esn" erises on eBay. Six screws and one connector are all it takes to swap out the trackball.

I've created three working erises (I call them FrankenPhones) from five broken ones bought on ebay, and the trackball is never the problem. Ususally dropping kills the fractures digitizer (touch screen) or blackens the LCD or water kills the main board.
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
Hey bro, have you heard of a way to fix haptic feedback? Mine just stopped working one day, gone. My phone does vibrate a little, but it's real weak. I get NOTHING when I type, no setting changes help fix it. Kind weird, I'm pretty careful with my phone, never dropped it or anything.

What do you think?
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
Why pay money when you can get an app to change the recovery for free? He alreadysaid he never uses the trackball..

hey shed , i asked conap and he said he will help if u get stuck bro ,, i also asked n2 , waitin to hear back from him

flash question

I must be the odd duck.

I prefer vanilla over pink and blackened. But I want to try flash.

Is there a way to clothe Blackened in the Vanilla theme or to flash Blackened's flash player onto my Vanilla rom image? Or should I just wait a day or two for Tazz to pull another Vanilla poptart from his toaster?

Thanks... and quack

Wired Tether

I used TB to remove Wired Tether.

Now where do I place the new Wired Tether apk, and when I mount, do I have to have sdk open? my usb debug is on...

I need my Wired tether something baddd....

Please help...
[Droid Eris Android Development] rotarydial:
Not too sure Flash would get along with a duck.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Ddukes76:
Flash and ducks are not compatible, from personal experience
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
i put the instructions on the op , and thewre is also wired tether built in ,,neither work?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tomlang:
The vibrator is a simple electric motor with an off-balance weight on the shaft. It wouldn't too hard to swap one from a dead mainboard onto your mainboard, but easier yet to buy a broken eris in eBay with a smashed digitizer and broken LCD but no water damage and a good ESN. Then swap mainboards and ESNs on your account.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Place the apk in the tools folder of your sdk, open the command terminal on your comp, adb remount, adb push WiredTether.apk /system/app, adb reboot and you are done.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Ddukes76:
Wired tether kept Fc'ing on me. So I downloaded the WT apk to root of sd card,

pulled up cd prompt on my computer with usb debug on, and mounted.

Tried to push new WT apk, didn't go..
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
You have to put the apk in the tools folder of your sdk on you computer to push it from there.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
By the way, I did test the built in tether and it works.
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
Cool, thanks bro, I'm sure n2 will help if he has time.

I agree, you definitely are an odd Duck ;) lol

I'd just wait if I were you... please feel free to try different things and see if they'll work. You could totally take flash from blackened v2 and put it in vanilla :D

But please remember, and this is kind of "my" version of FU ckicken, if you want to complain about problems you have after taking any advice here... I'll only have one word to say followed by a 10 char...

NAND!

:D lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] bradrobster:
Hey Bus, I must still have the same problem as he did, I never got my wired tether working either. I just tested again, did the remove and adb push of v1.2 from the link in the op and it still FC's on me. Interestingly, the built in wired tether does not work either. It says it's tethered but never connects. I put PDA net on the other day when I couldnt get it to work either and PDANet works like a champ. I did make sure to kill the pdanet desktop process prior to testing the built in tether. It's not a biggie for me but I was trying to test again to try and help out Ddukes76 since I remembered that I had the same problem. One interesting note on my trying it again tonight, I literally had to reboot the phone after trying both the 1.2 version I pushed and it fc'd as well as again after trying the built in. It's almost like the USB got funny and didn't recognize the phone being connected. It showed connected..but adb devices and other commands stopped working till a reboot.. Interesting, I may NAND and reflash B2 and start over just to see what I get. Maybe I'm flashing my phone to death?? lol:confused::confused:
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
The whole not being recognized by the comp is a side effect of using the built in tether. It sucks but I don't know any way to fix it other than what you did. I do have a question, though. What was the name of the one you removed? If it is still force closing, I suspect that the original one is still there.
[Droid Eris Android Development] bradrobster:
The first one that someone posted was Wired_Tether_1_4.apk that I tried and then you had the same one that was in the op (WiredTether.apk). Those files are diff sizes just by a small amt. Each time when I do the adb remove, I always just do an adb shell and go into system/app and do an "ls -al " to make sure its gone. I didn't install pdanet until the other night when I didn't get it to work the first time.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
did u try the one on the op? it worked on b1

Firefox beta

Installed the new Firefox beta. When I try to open it, the window comes up like it's starting and then a few seconds later it just shuts down. Anyone else have this issue and any ideas?
[Droid Eris Android Development] bradrobster:
Yep, thats the one I tried, done it twice now as well as the flash version that Shed did. Bus must have done something because I went back to page 902 where we were hashing this out before and he was having the same problem I was with both 1.4 and the one in the op. Jdog has 1.4 version working somehow and Bus says his is working now...go figure...damn..I hate to stir **** back up..lol...I was just trying to help out Ddukes76...LOL :D I will keep plugging along on it and see what i get.
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
Yeah, the one in the OP works, actually, that's the only one I could get to work for me lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Funny thing is I removed everything and started over and now I can't get the one on the OP to work either, but I did try the built in tether and it worked. I wonder if using that one has some how interfered with the app.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jdog94:
tried it black screen nothing else
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
It's beta :D And it's a huge install (like 40 to 60mb) make sure you have enough room for it before you install it (you may just not have enough space)

Conap mentioned in his thread that firefox was working on a smaller release of it... but it's still beta ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] bradrobster:
Dang Busphan, didn't mean to make you break your stuff :( . Ok...an update. Grabbed the wife's phone did an adb pull of the WiredTether.apk from her Tazz Vanilla v8 and no work either. It did TRY to work, started, requested root and started the stats for the transfer...but, it...I noticed something that I am testing. I am wondering if this is related to Windows7. When I first plugged in after loading the two different wiredtether.apk, Windows7 goes to install the device driver...well that fails. Upon further looking, here is what windows7 came back with:

USB Composite Device Ready

ADB No Driver Found

USB Mass Storage Device Ready

HTC Android Phone USB Device Ready
