Thanks! rebooting now, so far it is a long one, lol. Prior to that I was getting all sorts of install from market errors out of nowhere, FC's and such, nand was no help, even went factory wipe and fresh install everything to no avail, hopefully this will fix it :) I'll post results soon.

Hi everyone. I just found out about these roms and of course, i have questions :p

1. As for the roms themselves, i don't know which ones are the actual roms. Its kinda cluttered:o for example, i see blackmod_17DEC. Zip, then i see the blackmod 6.1. 0 stable zip. So are the zips with dates the "nightlies"?

2. What are the things like color settings apk for?

3. I'm currently on the original cm 6.1 and i was using impaler's blue theme. So would i have to use the extreme blue theme to get my blue back or can i use impaler's blue theme here?

4. Could i have a description of all the roms here please :) Thank you for your time.

P.S- Sorry for the giant space, I literally just heard about Jaybob's roms and i wanted to try them. Sorry if i didn't read through this thoroughly. Once again, thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
Read the OP. The ROMS are dated with the source sync date. The only exception is the 6.1.0 Stable which is built from the source that the name would indicate.

Read the OP.

See the images in the OP for some screenshots of Extremely Blue. Impaler's blue theme for stable would probably also work for the 6.1.0 Stable (Vanilla).

Read the OP.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
5. did you even READ the OP??? It literally answers all your questions!

EDIT: lmfao, just saw your post JB, ha.

EDIT 2: Sorry I forgot to post jaybob, everything is running very smoothly after the newer gapps, thank you!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] GeezyAF:
Would anyone like to link me to the latest TINY gapps?

[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
go to AOSP's rom thread (either one) he has them.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
good news! these all boot at 691 (I know because my phone can't boot at 768), you have to scale them up after boot if you want to run higher than 691, so if your phone can't, the rom is ready to roll, download it!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
hey jaybob, I actually have found an issue with new gapps, wondering if it's just me. Nav doesn't work, let me explain: I opened nav, and after a bit (3 minutes or so) of searching it actually got a lock (and still has it), using gps status it showed 5 sat locks. The weird thing is this: AFTER nav got a lock and the dialogue box that said "waiting for gps"(or something like that) went away, a new dialogue box came up that says "checking navigation availabilty" and it's been hanging there for a good 15 minutes, do you have any idea what that is? I've never seen it before... Already tried stopping and restarting the app, same thing happens every time.

EDIT: wow, fixed itself on attempt number four of stop/restart the app, so nevermind, and thanks again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Zin0:
The

Yes, i did read the OP briefly before i posted . For 1,the OP doesn't state that the dates are sync times. Also for 4, it just mentions the names of the ROMS, NOT a description of what each one looks like.

il Duce, if you would read the end of my post it states that i didn't read this thoroughly, so please, if you want to be helpful, just answer the question without the extra.

Problem flashing

Hey guys,

I am currently running the Dec05 build Vanilla and am trying to flash the Dec17 build of the same as well as the black version. I have wiped dalvik and redownloaded/flashed a few times and continue getting the following error when I try to flash. E: Corrupt file: system/lib/libaudio.so E: Verification failed. Can anyone help?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] izoro:
I did a search to see if any one else has reported issues with Wi-Fi on the 17 Dec rom I didn't see any one so imma ask if there is an issue with it if so can it be fixed. Other than that JB you finally got me back with the rotary lockscreen I've been longing for thanks again for being a great developer.

Just installed the newest blackmod has anyone else noticed that the smileyface icon popup window doesn't allign its a lil off been playin with the rom and everything else is running great just noticed this when sending a txt. In landscape it sees fine but not in portrait. Its not terribly off just slightly. Also noticed it doesn't stay open like it used to after you touched it.

Just my opinion but I don't see the point of including GoogleQuickSearchBox in gapps packages when Google Search does the same and more (voice search).

hey everyone, i recently tried flashing the extremely black version

i waited for about 25 minutes and nothing happened except for that cyanogen mod logo flashing. I am not sure what it could be... does anyone have an idea what it could be?

before i flashed the rom, i partitioned the sd, would that influence anything?

thanks in advance.

Flashing trouble

I really need some help here! I can no longer flash any updates. I am currently on the Dec05 build and was trying to flash the newest Dec17 build and received this error, E: Corrupt file: system/lib/libwebcore.so E: Verification failed. I then tried to flash the vanilla 6.10 stable and received this error, E: Corrupt file: system/framework/ext.jar, E: Verification failed. I have tried wiping completely dalvik and data, tried a completely different sd card. Am I missing something?? I have been flashing updates for many months and have never had this issue.

Please help!! What else can I try?

Seems like the downloaded files are corrupt. Redownload and try flashing. It should work.

Jaybob - is there any way you could publish the MD5 checksums for the zips?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hotaru:
one request for the next version... could you remove the

echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness;

line from the 06tweaks file? if you don't have swap it doesn't do anything (and if there is any gain from changing it to 0, i'd think it'd be better to change the default in the kernel if you're compiling the kernel without swap). if you use compcache (i do), it prevents the system from using the swap, which means that you end up with less memory available than with compcache turned off instead of more. i was wondering why the latest build would get really laggy when i'd do my usual heavy multitasking until i saw decad3nce's post about what's in 06tweaks. i just changed that setting back to 10 and my phone is back to working great.

what exactly do you mean by "off"? if you mean that it's not centered, it's not supposed to be. this is what it's supposed to look like:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] legasus233:

No Text!

I am having the same problem of not receiving text messages. Text worked on my earlier version nov 18 rom, I recently flashed fresh to the stable dec rom, realized i was not receiving text messages, then tried the new gapps wiped cache &removed the data, installed the new gaps, still no text.

So i flashed fresh to dec 17 rom, new gapps, and no text messages still. anyone having the same results?

Latest, i flased back to my working nov version and i used the new dec 18 gapps and still not working

Yikes, all of these reports of sms issues, mixed results of gapps, and hotaru's suggestion make me resist the urge to update to the newest
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hotaru:
well, you don't have to worry about my suggestion if you're using the kernel that's included in the rom or any of decad3nce's except for really old ones... i re-enabled swap in my kernel and use compcache on my phone, so changing swappiness to 0 has a pretty significant negative effect on my phone, and no effect for anyone running a kernel without swap.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stayclean:
It is running fine for me. Haven't flashed latest gapps because stuff gets updated in market anyway, no big deal.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] AjaxBU:
I just flashed the newest update and again, I love it. Thanks again jaybob, this rom is absolutely incredible and I am very appreciative of all of your hard work. Today at lunch I was visiting with a friend who has an iPhone 4 but expressed interest in Android. I let him play around with my phone for a bit and told him all the cool things that I can do now because of all the awesome developers like you... He's selling his iPhone and moving to an Android phone tomorrow.

What I mean by off is that when you press the smiley button and slide across the rows of smileys the slide is off. if u slide your finger across the 3rd row the 2nd row is highlighted/selected and the 2nd row the 1st row is highlighted and u have to slide your finger below the box to select the 3rd row icons.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
This is by design. You slide your finger below the row that you are selecting from. If you slid on top of the row, your finger would obstruct the view of what you are selecting.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
Sure. I no longer use compcache, so I didn't notice it. I have been including swap in the config for those who do, so thanks for the heads up.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
The sms issue appears to have a fairly straightforward resolution AFAIK. Remove handcent, confirm use of the stock app, reinstall handcent, or something to that effect. I have to say that I have flashed each of these before I uploaded and was able to send and receive, so not sure why a few people are having issues. I do always wipe cache (out of superstition) during the install process, so that may be a part of it. My normal routine is to wipe cache, format system partition (to remove dried gapps remnants), flash ROM, flash gapps, reboot, get a beverage of choice, return and enjoy.

The gapps issue was my mistake, as the 12/13 version was a tiny gapps (which deletes all of the other google apps before installing). This was fixed with the 12/18 version, which has the complete set of apps normally found in the full gapps.

As hotaru noted, you will not have this issue using the ROM as published. If you are using compcache/swap, just delete the one line from 06tweaks.

Since posting on the night of the 17th, there have already been about 600 downloads, so overall my impression is that they are working fairly well. (Although I may be out of touch, and the townspeople are already beginning to form an angry mob) ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dgatlin:
Ok...these maybe stupid questions...

1. This keyboard that you are talking about...mine is not like this. I am run the dec17...is this rom suppose to come with it or do I need to download it?

2. How do I get the circular lock screen? Mine still has the slide sideways...

Thanks...

the gingerbread keyboard is included.

Has anyone else noticed that sometimes just the trackball LED will turn off while all the others (green and red phone, menu, home, back, and search) are still on? I can't quite put my finger on when this happens. It's not app specific, but one example of when it happens is when I get a Handcent notification set to turn the screen on.

Also, I'm using firerat's a2sdext sh script, and in CM settings I have allow application moving unchecked and install location set to internal. Yet, several times when apps in the market update to versions that allow froyo A2SD, they get installed to my sd FAT partition! It's not a big deal, but it shouldn't work this way, should it?

Edit:

Ruh-roh, check out the screenshot attached below. This is what my notification bar looks like after I clicked on "Clear," or slide the notification away, or click on any notification to remove it from the list.

no texts! fixed!

Well it seems to be fixed now. I did some research thru other threads and for some apprent reason random people have had this same problem on other roms also. at any given point, flashing any rom people are having this "not receiving text" issue

The fix appears to be:

-flash back to a sense based rom.

That is it!

I flased to a modded sprint sense rom and all of my texts came pouring in.

I later flased back to the dec 17 release and it is still working just fine! :D

I have noticed this too, i also notice that when the back light is on, sometimes the trackball will randomly turn on then wait, and turn back off. It does it constantly and messes with my peripheral vision, i hate it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] brokentoaster24:
can i no wipe flash this over a recent cm6 nightly? (aka, how different is this from nightlies?)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] liquidtenmillion:
Trackball is controlled by the light sensor. If it senses enough light the trackball light turns off. It does this to save battery and it has been doing it since stock 2.1.

The hardware keys (back and such) are also controlled by the light sensor, but they have different thresholds from the trackball.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Sorry I forgot to reply, I also noticed the dead trackball, but I hate it so I didn't post, I then used custom light levels in cm settings and turn all the buttons to zero. Also to the screen shot, what's wrong?

EDIT: to the post above mine, that is not true. CM6+ go into your cm settings, auto backlight, use custom ,you can clearly see the trackball and buttons are all considered "buttons". Also, others have reported the same "bug", so my guess is jaybob will look into it for the next release :)

Gingerbread Question

I know this is off-topic, but will you be upgrading this ROM to Gingerbread at any point? Is that something that you're working on right now, or will that come down the road? Are there even any 2.3 ROM's available? Is getting Gingerbread for this ROM solely dependent on Cyanogen, and we'll just have to wait for them?

Just interested in 2.3 (although you're ROM is already incredible)

Thanks.

I just wanted to thank you for all of your work and report that I have 50% battery life after the phone has been booted for a full 24 hours. I did a fresh install of the latest blackmod, installed both ultimatejuice and the battery mod (610 defaults with the Max charge frequencies all at 480). I'm sure similar results have been reported before but since it was such a drastic improvement I felt the need to share.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dburg84:
not sure why but the dec 17th (atleast vanilla and blackmod) when I flash I get no signal at all? Tried wiping all partitions a few times.

Tried airplane mode for 5 minutes off/on. Still nothing. Booted 167 nightly fine with latest gapps on OP with signal...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] c00ller:
Look at the bar that says Notifications, and look to right of where it says Sprint. There is a blank, empty region where the Clear button used to be.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
oh, I see it now. Mine doesn't do that, I'm on the red though, I wonder if anybody else has that issue? I also use the CMtheme xml from impaler's old red theme, so maybe that's part of it. I don't know which version you're on (black/blue/vanilla) but maybe go to one of impaler's themes and dl the theme xml for the note bar, see if that does anything - I doubt it will - but it'll only take a couple minutes, worth a shot maybe. Otherwise, maybe JB will fix it in the next release...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Does your phone actually work? Maybe it's because the vanilla and black only have 4 bars - do they? the red rom has 5 bars, which I believe can applied independently using CM signal fix.

I get nothing at all...can't get past the setupwizard android screen. When I flash just the ROM without gapps it boots and works fine...just no signal at all. Not a visual thing, no signal. I'll try again later with a full wipe.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dburg84:
tried again. when I go to mobile networks I get process com.android.settings force close. No signal at all

Fixed permissions...no dice

Tried replacing Settings.apk also can't dial without force close. replaced contacts.apk and contacts provider.apk with a confirmed working nightly....still nothing
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jfortier16:
I had similar issues recently. I also noticed I had multiple copies of my alarms/ringtones so I figured a cleanup may help me out.

I re-partioned my sd card (ext3 because I'm not sure what recoveries read/write to ext4) the i fully charged my battery and flashed a fresh install of the blackmod (<3).

It's glorious.

I had assumed my flashing at <50% battery was the cause of my lag/force closes, but the re-partition/wipe may have done the trick.
