haven't had any problems yet here with v8 rom...although I havent really tested it out too much. Made a phone call fine...no lag...played one of my movies and songs fine...mms txt fine...browser fine....unless apps2sd is enabled by default i have NOT enabled it as I still have 140mb or so free internally. Only slight bug that I'm not sure if it was the rom or just bad reception..I woke up my eris and noticed no 3g signal...seemed to pop back on shortly there after i woke it up.
[Droid Eris Android Development] shawn.irwin:
oh okay sorry tazz i could've sworn i saw someone else had this issue a few posts back...anyways yeah i don't know, it just started happening yesterday. it happened, not immediately, but soon after i flashed the metamorph theme minimal matte...do you think it may be linked to that?
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
You are more than likely looking at the app included in this rom called "toggle 2g". If you go to app drawer and open it you will see that it toggles your phone to 2g mode automatically when it is in sleep mode to save battery. When you wake the phone it kicks back to 3g.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
u know what man , ? i totally forgot about that toggle thing lol ,, ive been going nutts tryin to figure out y it is doing that lol,, im gunna remove it from the rom and see if that is why :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
no its cool man , can u do me a favor? if it happens again , can u pull the cord and plug it back in and see if it woks ? how many pages back im lookin , i must be mising it
[Droid Eris Android Development] shawn.irwin:
it does it all the time now. it never shows that it's plugged in. i tried replugging and rebooting. Haven't tried wipe/reflash yet. I'll see if I can find that post. Also, I've never dalvik wiped. Don't know if that could be linked to it at all...
[Droid Eris Android Development] shawn.irwin:
Tazz, i don't know if you're referring to the issue I and others have been having with the 3g disappearing when using wifi/usb tether, but just so you know, i've had that issue consistently with your roms and with kaosfroyo, and I don't think he includes that toggle app in his roms.
[Droid Eris Android Development] nesgodawg:
Can some one please PM me this answer?

I have Overclock Widget installed and I try to manipulate the settings, but it only seems to do what it wants. I want it at 729, but it won't go higher than 605. I've tried everything.

Thanks!

Kevin
[Droid Eris Android Development] shawn.irwin:
okay nm now it suddenly works again...how weird
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
i tried that also and for some reason it wont work with this rom for me ,, not sure if anyone else had this issue but i shoulda put that in the op ,, setcpu works
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
I still have the black taskbar. I have NOT changed the date color yet. I think I'll leave it like it is too... :D I've also stuck with ADW and not Launcher Pro.
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
Just changed to LauncherPro, rebooted, and I've got a white status bar again. Arghhhh !!

roscoe: Do you use LauncherPro or ADW ?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Phaded:
Verizon is doing something in my area with coverage. Anyone else noticing differences? And no it is not rom related.
[Droid Eris Android Development] nesgodawg:
Okay cool. Thanks Tazz. Good to know.

Love the ROM else wise.
[Droid Eris Android Development] andrewwhiplash:
The notification light isn't working for me.

I just did a wipe, and reflash of v8. Still same problem, anyone else having this issue?
[Droid Eris Android Development] mrfitz98:
I can't get my bluetooth to come on either in settings or via the widget, nobody else has this?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
everyone has this issue , please read thread
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
comes on for me , did u do a wipe ?
[Droid Eris Android Development] roscoe699z:
I use the ADW that comes with the ROM, haven't played around with LauncherPro yet.

Another odd point, I used metamorph and installed the Kevlar Froyo Mash v .05 and cannot get the status bar to change to the kevlar theme. I applied the theme three or four times, both with and without rebooting and cannot get the bar to stick. Could just be my phone. I don't want you losing sleep over it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gwp1:
I'm in Northeast Ohio and yes, VZW is really screwing with the towers. Can't get signal worth a damn ANYWHERE around me right now. At least I can complete calls, my wife's dumb-phone can't even do that.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mrfitz98:
Yes.

Cleaned it out and reinstalled twice.

I seem to be losing battery crazy quick too.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
im not sure what to tell u ,, ill look into it ,once again im not haven any such issue
[Droid Eris Android Development] mrfitz98:
Wiped and flashed again, now it works.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Phaded:
I'm in northeast ohio as well. Usually at home I got below average service, now it's unbelievably good. At work I used to get great service, now it sucks. I think I might call them.
[Droid Eris Android Development] clell12:
My cursor does the same thing, charging on my computer or in my truck, the minute I unhook it, the cursor goes back to being normal.
[Droid Eris Android Development] AndroidMike:
Yes I noticed ... I have 5 bars inside my house ... previously 1 bar!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Macrodroid:
I used the same widget on my wife's eris. 605 is the max, but if you set it in,advanced settings, it does what it's supposed to. My wife's phone now runs @ 787 max, 480 min. The oc widget is passive, works based on demand. The more active the phone gets, the higher it pushes. If you want more control, setcpu works great!

So I don't know if this is rom related but I noticed earlier today the radio was set to wcmda (first time I checked since I flashed). So I changed it to cmda auto prl. I just checked a second ago and it changed to gsm (haven't restarted phone or anything.) Anyone else have this problem? I changed it back and will check again in the morning to see if it was just a flook.

*Edit* just restarted and it stayed on cmda auto. I'll check again in the morning.

[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
+1 except when I checked mine it was on gsm only (flashover to v8 from v7). My wife's (full wipe v8 install) was cdma auto though. I switched mine to cdma auto also. Didn't even think to check this.

busy box

I know it says not to update busy box, but i was just curious how would i update it if i wanted to? cause i think ur rom is still at 1.16 and busy box is up to like 1.18
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjgdroid:
I know it says not to update busy box, but i was just curious how would i update it if i wanted to? cause i think ur rom is still at 1.16 and busy box is up to like 1.18

oh ya and I did try to up date and alot of things stopped working lol.
[Droid Eris Android Development] listyb01:
I have contacted the developer of busybox regarding the update issue because it is a universal froyo/eris problem. For right now there would be no clear benefit to updating even if it did work. Hopefully he'll get it fixed

Sent from my Nonsensikal Froyo
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
Tell us why you feel it needs updated? What changes from .16 to .18 are there, besides breaking a lot of other apps?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Phaded:
What's the code to boot into diagnostic?
[Droid Eris Android Development] orkillakilla:
I just checked again and it went back to wcmda. Would the toggle 2g have anything to do with this perhaps?

no *228

Thank you so much for this great rom. Can't get *228 to work. Google goggles closes after taking picture. Thanks again
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
ok heres the deal ,, i just cant figure out why people are haven issues with my rom ,, i have tried over and over again to make this rom screw up on my phone but cant :confused:, this rom works 100% besides the trackball , i even activated it last night to check mms ,, im uploading one last update and haven it tested ,, if people are still haven issues , i will no longer update this rom cuz im not gunna be responceable for people screwing up there phones
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
google googles is a known issue , and i have no issue dialin *228 at all :confused:
[Droid Eris Android Development] ericFuels999:
If you hold the menu soft key during a *228 call, it will bring up the keyboard. Just press the number corresponding to the desired option when prompted and it will register the keypress. *Note: you won't hear an audible tone when you press the number, but it still works.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
i dont understand y people have to do this ,, i open the dialer and call the number then push the option :confused:
[Droid Eris Android Development] ericFuels999:
Huh, I have no idea. I have to manually bring up the keyboard, but it's not a big deal either way. It still works!
[Droid Eris Android Development] AndroidMike:
Tazz, When I call *228 I get a red/ black screen that says phone activation at the top so I then hold menu to get the keyboard to come up and hit 2 I believe this is what there talking about ... I previously had v7 and when I dialed *228 it would just have the dialpad like any other number dialed.
[Droid Eris Android Development] sleep7:
no *228

First I want to say these problems are minor compared to how great the rom is. I am able to dial *228 but when it asks for the number I am able to put the number in but the system does not recognize it.Again I have used many roms in the past but his is my favorite
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
Dial *22899. The least amount of effort in searching would tell anyone this too.
[Droid Eris Android Development] orkillakilla:
*228 and long press menu button worked for me just fine.

I haven't been around here for long but I have quickly grown to appreciate your work and would disappointed if you were to stop now:( This is a great rom. I haven't had any issues with it. You're not responsible for peoples phones. No one made them root their phone and start doing things they had no clue about but them. no one is making them stay with one rom either, if they're having issues they can move on to another rom. What you do is vital to this forum as I'm sure other devs have used some of your ideas as you have theirs. I won't go on, just my 2pennies.

FWIW.
[Droid Eris Android Development] sleep7:
Thanks now it works
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
thank you very much :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] gemro311:
I agree this rom is great. I just installed yesterday after spending the last week using Kaos v29. That rom doesn't hold a slither of light to Tazz's rom

I haven't had a single issue.

On a side note..my humble apologies to Tazz for being an arse.

Keep up the great work ..PLEASE
[Droid Eris Android Development] meatwadnga:
Yes. Thank you Tazz, I love your ROM. I tried the kayos ones too and have to say I just like yours better. You have basically given me a new phone, I was seriously about to bite the bullet and buy something else until I found the root method and your awesome ROM. Keep up the great work.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Phaded:
Love the rom tazz. My only issue is my led not blinking for texts, but I think its just a setting I'm missing. Other than that, the rom is awesome! Hoping for 3D gallery in v9 :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] orkillakilla:
Deleted disregard this post
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
Install it on your own. tazz can't keep going back and forth on "gallery" apps...
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
dont know what you are using but i use a free app in market called network. after I changed it to cdma auto in this it was fine and stuck.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Macrodroid:
Second that! You're not everyone elses personal programmer! If they don't like the rom, try someone elses! Personally, this rom is fast, stable and 100% kick a$$ fron the other 2.2's out there... Mostly because of your support! Keep it up!
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
there will be a new theme

i have a test rom out v9 i should be gettin results back pretty soon

also i got an idea from someone and i talked to the person needed and got the go ahead to proceed , there will be a themed version of this rom coming out soon :D:D
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Wooh! Awesome Tazz. The battery life ont his is ridiculous. We're talking 48 hours of heavy use.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Phaded:
48 hours of heavy use? Describe heavy...

I don't see anything close to that.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Phaded:
Where can I find the apk?
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
I believe it's been linked or attached in this thread. I'll bet Google can find it too.
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
Yeah, I'll bet a lot of people are really interested in that !!

Take a screenshot of "Menu, Settings, About Phone, Battery Use" please. You can wait a day and a half too if you've recently had to charge.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Well my day starts out with the alarm lol that goes from 8-10am until I wake up >_>

I make a lot of calls throughout the day, at least 2 hours of calls since if I'm walking outside I'm on my phone calling people.

I played some Zenonia for maybe 15 minutes I don't know.

Did logmein to remote access my sweet computer for while, at least the length of the movie Shutter Island and probably a little after.

and that brings me down to around 65%
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
I'm plugged in at the moment lol and also I've meant to report this glitch but the hours won't show up on my "time since last unplugged" so even though it says "42 minutes 2 seconds" it's really been like 3 hours lol

Something to look at Tazz.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Oh and I also have conservative setcpu settings AND I'm almost always on 2G (except when using logmein)
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
hey tazz, i lost my cell service...so i wont be using my phone as a phone...if you need me as a tester i can anytime you need me to.
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
I was going through some of the recent issues and tried this one.... Interesting, but I think it's a Cyanogen issue. When calling *228, it doesn't treat it like a normal call and goes to a different screen. See the attached image. Pressing "Menu" doesn't work for me either. Nonetheless, dialing *22899 does work.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Emunny:
I'm wondering why my sd card is not being recognized after I flash this rom do you need a partioned sd card to use it cause that is not cool if you have to. My sd card works fine on other roms but the froyo roms is what doesn't recognize my card and I thought a2sd didn't work for froyo roms. Well would appreciate some help thanks
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
Froyo won't recognize SD cards with anything other than FAT partitions. This is a change in Froyo, not unique to tazz's ROM.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Emunny:
So I gotta partition my card for it to recognize it than
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
No... you have to FORMAT your card for it to work. Do not partition it. Back up your SD card to your computer, format it to FAT32 and put all the stuff back in it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Emunny:
Isn't my card already formatted to fat32 for it to work on other roms

Kinda confused

.........Ok I get it!!
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
if u came from any rom besides froyo and used a2sd , u partitioned ur card , with froyo u need to formatt it to fat32 the WHOLE card , backup ur card on the computer , formatt it , then add ur stuff back to the card,, simple as that , its not as hard as it seems :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] Emunny:
Ok I'm coming from xtrROM 3.0.3 never used a2sd but I still need to re format it with FAT32 for it to work with this rom?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
yes u need to
[Droid Eris Android Development] Emunny:
K thanks :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
Actually, the card should already be formatted FAT32.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
i was told to if it doesnt read it :confused:
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
yes format it..the native froyo apps2sd works...not the partitioning done in recovery
[Droid Eris Android Development] Macrodroid:
I went fron ee4.0... No format, just wipe, flash and go. No issues at all. Not everu phone is the same though. I DID have to format my son's card and reload... Just depends on the phone/hardware I guess...
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
how was ee4? i heard it was buggy...and i moved before it came out
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheDoctor1177:
Okay, I don't know if this was answered already or not, but there are too many posts i've looked through to find it. I flashed v8 theme version and I'm not getting the theme status bar or pull down bar, and yes I did use the Cyanogen customized status bar and stuff and it still the same color as I customized it previously.

I really like the theme, just wish i could get it back.

If someone can point me to the page and post number that would be fantastic.

Thanks in advance.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mistermartian:
Is anyone else having problems getting passed the "Welcome to Froyo Eris" screen? I keep touching the Android, but it's not working :(
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
I just looked at this and when I do a *228 the screen you posted does show up but I can long press the menu to get the keyboard and the numbers up there work for me. Of course, like you said *22899 is faster.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Wait until the 3g icon is showing in the status bar and it will work. Patience young padawan.
[Droid Eris Android Development] NPH-:
so i saw quite a bit of extra things to download on the original post

is there not a dl link for the ROM that everything I would need instead of having to dl each separate thing I need
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
u only need to download the rom and apps zip

Has anybody done the install on passionQuickoffice under the system/apps. I have but can't find the shortcut to put on the home screen. It does go through the install procedure but nothing shows up.for me.

I don't understand your response ..sorry.

what u asked for passion office ,i removed it from the rom it was part of it

[Droid Eris Android Development] sa12awr:
hey all. So I'm reading about outstanding battery life.. but I'm just not getting it! I have drained, wiped batt stats etc. I have some sync settings set up for optimal batt life..the only battery sucker I have is the Live Weather Wallpaper but even those settings I have as low as possible (even removed the part of the lwp that sucks up the most cpu.)

Thoughts?

p.s. Love v8 otherwise and am suuupeerr happy about the camera working :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] Macrodroid:
Wipe, reflash. Also, make sure you flash the google apps before you reboot. Wife's phone did the same thing the first time... I forgot the google apps...
[Droid Eris Android Development] Macrodroid:
Most of the bugs were fixed in 4.0. Works fine for me, but I did have some lag issues, like the rest of the 2.1 rom's. I've used alyosius, zen, ee4, xtrsense, cookie (ee3 with a different theme, basically), kaosfroyo and tazz... 2.2 roms seem to have less lag and better battery life. More features and control of the os, too.
[Droid Eris Android Development] SKumar26:
Is there a silence mode I can somehow select? I see vibrate but usually You can go one step further with silence that doesn't even vibrate? I don't want to turn vibration off completely because I like it when I do have the ringer up so it's just a lot of work going through all the settings each time turning them off and on.
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
cant wait to try that new rom
[Droid Eris Android Development] rycheme:
Audio Manager Widget (free) or Audio Manager Pro would be the way to go. You can set up icons on your screen for each profile that you would need to use.
[Droid Eris Android Development] SKumar26:
Thanks... kinda dumb of me but I see there is a silent mode under sound settings that I needed to enable And then change vibrate option to only when not in silent mode to get the outcome I wanted.

Thanks for the recommendations, sounds neat. Will check it out.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjgdroid:
love the rom
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
There are 4 options with vibrate in Menu, Sounds. One is "Never".

I don't know if it was with a Froyo ROM or previous, but using the volume buttons, it used to adjust the ringer volume and after the lowest setting, gave the option for silent and vibrate. That appears gone now... Don't know if some combination of "Sounds" settings can get it back.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Emunny:
ok just reformatted my sd card but when i try and find the zip on the sd in recovery its not there but when i plug my phone to my cpu it shows up just not in recovery and it is not in a folder either someone help me wanna try this rom
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
the zip isnt showing or the card?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Emunny:
the zip file all my other roms show up but when i browse for the tazz one its not there

any ideas
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
this ,might sound stupid but are u sure u put the rom on ur card ? maybe u put the apps zip instead? i dunno :confused:
[Droid Eris Android Development] Emunny:
haha, yeah its on there says cyanogen tazz v8 its 62.1 mb i tried deleting it re copying it re downloading it the whole 9 it showed b4 i reformatted it though but i assume thats not the problem if my other roms are still showing

hmmmm
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
i dont get it :confused: just for the hell of it , did u try without everything else on the card see if it shows up?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Emunny:
same here but ill delete everything but my xtrROM and your rom let me reboot and ill let you know

HA its there i had a bunch of roms i didnt use anymore do you think that might of messed with something cause that was weird
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
It doesn't make sense. I had this problem with v1 but when I flashed the google apps it worked. I don't know what to tell you.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Yeah, I tried that when I was having this problem and that option wasn't there.
[Droid Eris Android Development] BigBeefy:
I did. Boot loop.
[Droid Eris Android Development] BigBeefy:
I appreciate all the help. I am going to try another froyo rom and see if I have any problems there.

I will post back when I am done.
