Hi r0man,

No, what was withing your ROM was the Gallery.apk and I removed it. Then I pushed the Gallery3D.apk and I haven't had any force close while using the camera.

I have one big question if it could be answer.

When I had Eugene's MyFroyo6 I did a benchmark test and my score was around 1041. Then I loaded your your ROM and ran the test again and I got a score of 461. Why the big difference? I don't know, but I must say that your ROM seems to be faster than Eugens's and I just don't understand why the big difference in scores.

Can anyone explain?

Thanks in advance
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kevev:
issues

3 things.

1.) usb tether does not work.

2.) wifi tether does not work.

3.) some apps that do led notification cause the led to do solid green with flashing orange or just solid green when phone sleeps. When phone is woken up led goes off then when asleep again same led colors.

Any suggestions?

Other than that, the rom is great!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
You cannot, at present, use any program to interact with /system while the phone is on (NAND lock you see)

Until we get a real OTA update (2.2) it will be impossible to modify /system files from within Android. So boot into Clockwork and mount /system, use adb shell to rm them

o wai thx gud sir :D

Cyanogen commented in the RC1 thread stating that it had something to do with a switch in the build.prop, the actual speed is greater than Eugene's (in my personal opinion) and it shows in the Linpack scores.

Mind you, I AM running on the 806 overclock.

1) #blamewes

2) www.pastebin.com a logcat

3) LED notifications are not supposed to be on when the screen is on.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bbbblack:
Thanks roman I had no idea that it was locked.. I will use adb to remove them asap ! Also one other thing I don't have any camera settings when I hit menu. Note I have both gallery and gallery3d installed side by side. Would this cause that 2 happen?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] XiaoSiuMai:
just tried to flash myfroyo6. too many issues. your rom is the best and most issue-free that i experienced. thanks for that.

side note: when I asked u about me losing my 3G, that was because the t-mobile signal tower went down in my area. when I flashed slidemeroot I was at the mall lol. So it seemed that it worked. anyways your suggestion comforted me :P
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Camera settings are dictated by on screen controls, tap the screen and they'll appear :)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] riverajuan:
Hi r0man,

I wanted to ask you if there is a way to get the autobrightness setting from other roms?

Can you haelp?

Thanks in advance, this rom is quick
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
There are auto brightness settings in CM settings, however with max brightness and heavy use I find it unnecessary
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] XiaoSiuMai:
hey r0man

What does the Bloatless Gapps in your siggy do? and how do I install it?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] tswys3:
Hey guys,

I'm really happy with this rom so far but I have only one problem.

I am using 1.8 with the OC kernel and have everything working - swype, 3d gallery etc... But for the life of me I cannot get wifi tether to work. Every time I try to start tethering it reboots my phone. Any idea what I'm doing wrong. I have tried both the pre 8 and pre 3 builds of that program with no success.

Also, not a big deal but is there a way to restore the espresso cam or music widget? I really like the style on that widget and the espresso cam has that touch to focus trick.

Thanks everyone.

And r0man, I really appreciate what you've put together here, keep up the good work!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] donkey72:
Roman - Logcat uploaded to pastebin.com for wifi tether application reboot. If I did not do it correctly, feel free to PM me with directions.

pastebin.com/KSFt3FyT (Cant post link)

thanks.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Thanks, I'm not seeing a problem with tether in there. You say that it starts but will not transfer data?

:)

Try pushing sh and toolbox from slidemeroot2/5r1 to /system/bin

Sadly you cannot use the Espresso cam or music applications on stock Android. I recommend Vignette as a camera replacement (heard good things) and the 4x4 music widget should work nicely

They are the latest MDPI gapps, but with the bloat removed. i.e: no amazon mp3, sound recorder, etc (all which can be obtained from the market).
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] donkey72:
Wifi tether starts, gets su permissions, then reboots phone. After pushing those files is any script necessary? Chmod??
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] tswys3:
Yeah I'm still having the same problem.

I booted into clockwork and pushed sh and toolbox from slidemeroot5r1 and rebooted the phone. Reinstalled wifi tether pre8 and it does the same thing, starts, gets superuser permissions then reboots the phone. After this I tried pushing su from that same rom based on something I saw in the CM6 thread and still no luck. Thanks again for your support r0man.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] donkey72:
This all started with the CM6 RC1, Cyanogen just tweeted that WiFi adhoc support was now available in CM6, perhaps this is the solution. Not smart enough to go any further.

Thanks ROMAN for your work.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] tswys3:
Yeah I know how you feel. I think I have adhoc working through barnacle but to be honest my primary reason for wanting wifi tether is to use it with xbox live and it doesn't seem to like barnacle very much, says it won't take ICMP requests. I've got USB tethering through easytether working fine on the PC.

Vignette is actually really cool, makes a great replacement for the stock camera.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] mulletcutter:
so just making sure. . . .

can i just flash 1.8 then the OC kernel? or do i have to flash 1.7 then upgrade to 1.8?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] tswys3:
I personally only flashed 1.8 and the kernel and swype worked fine.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] TJD319:
r0man, your got the best Froyo ROM around, I'm loving your work and have been with Froyo since 1.7. I'm running 1.8 now with the latest 806OC kernel and everything is going perfect. SetCPU is definitely giving me some of the best battery life I've ever had! Linpack is amazing, was hoping my phone could Quadrant higher (569) but oh well.

I just have one main problem. When I'm downloading from the Market, most times when I'm on mobile data it works perfect, sometimes it doesn't download though. But on Wifi, in the beginning I could download and install from the market, but now it just hangs up or doesn't even download, then fails the download when I disconnect Wifi, even if its ages later. Just wondering how to go about fixing (if possible) the Wifi/data issue because sometimes it doesn't work on the net either (Data connectivity problem). Just curious about this whole thing, and market icons don't load when I'm on Wifi either, but it does load pages and comments and such.

And one quick question, I REALLY miss my color settings menu, and on 1.7.1, I just pushed the Settings.apk from Eugene's latest to system/app which was perfect, but I noticed in 1.8 the layout of the settings menu is different so I was wondering how to mod the Settings.apk to have those color images if possible?

Thanks again, definitely my favorite ROM ever dude, keep it up!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] zachenry:
I am using the updated Swype from OP.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
This sounds like a gapps problem, flash the one in my sig.

Color settings are under user interface, or do you mean that they aren't there at all?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] elliotshoe:
How hard would it be to implement the fn+sym (.com etc) button? If someone could point me in the right direction I wouldn't mind spending time learning how to get it done.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
The fn and sym keys work :D
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] TJD319:
Awesome, will flash those now. Am I going to lose the nice black integration you've got for 1.8 if I overflash? I guess I'll find out soon, haha.

And I meant like the actual icons in the settings menu itself, how in Espresso they came in color and in here it's black and white. Just something I've loved about the color settings menu.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Ooooooohh stock Android does not have colored icons, you could repack settings.apk with colored ones if you wish. It'd be too much effort for too little gain IMHO

Also: I added a new cmparts_ui.xml to the OP for people who are 'challenged' in changing the color of notification bar text. :rolleyes:
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] PcFish:
Does the build.prop in 1.8 support swype or do I have to take it from 1.7.1??

Great job man switching to this from RC1.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] chriswallen79:
Best rom by far thank you running smooth and quick with oc kernel. Two things how to push 3d gallery? And my phone doesn't read my phone# (unknown in settings/aboutphone) so I can't use certain apps like tikl is there a way to fix?

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] mimarin:
Anyone have a problem saving contacts? I made the mistake of not backing up anything and installed the rom. Now that I'm trying to add contacts again, nothing is showing up in the contact list. Unless I search for the contact then I can find them.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] a.dt.martinez:
Hey r0man, quick question. Every once in a while, when I unlock my phone from sleep, I lose all my audible selection tones. I then have to go to settings, disable them and enable them again for them to work. This is def no deal-breaker cuz I'm still loving this ROM, jst wondering if anyone else is having the same issue.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sandpaperback:
Sooo... I flashed 1.8 (thank you for this rom, btw) and it seems to be working fine. And then I saw a post a few pages back that there's a particular kernel required. Is this something I need to worry about since it seems to be okay? And if I should flash the kernel, can someone point me toward some directions on how to do so? Is it as simple as installing a zip from Clockwork?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] XiaoSiuMai:
It is suppose to be required. And yes just install from zip. Either the long way or with rom manager.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
It has Swype support, see OP for the updated Swype.apk

Has it been displayed on other CM6 ROMs?

Menu > Display Options > Enable them?

Is your phone, by happenstance, on vibrant/silent mode? I just tested it out after locking/rebooting and they seemed to maintain fine for me.

The OC kernel is probably recommended, but if the stock one is working for you fine then I guess I was wrong :D

But really, get the OC kernel, it's great.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sandpaperback:
Done. So painless.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Ace42:
Does this rom use the AOSP Launcher2 or does it use ADW/LP/Helix?

I prefer the stock launcher cause the other ones dont have that authentic feel to them.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] elliotshoe:
If you pressed fn+sym with sense you get a menu for .com .net .domain etc... if I do it on this rom it gives me a BOX.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Does just pressing sym not do that?

ADW (which can be configured to act 100% like the stock Froyo launcher)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] chriswallen79:
Not displayed in any froyo rom

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sandpaperback:
Similar to this, is there a way to customize the characters in the pop-up box for the SYM key? Specifically, I'd like < > brackets. Also, the suggestion above would be neato too.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Cyan confirmed USB tether is borked.

I'll look into how one modifies that pop-up sym dodopper.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sandpaperback:
Is this supposed to turn the entire theme to white (as in default Android)? Because all it did was turn all my notification colors back to white. Even after a reboot.

Now I'll stop asking nitpicky questions for a bit. :)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] XiaoSiuMai:
I was just wondering if there will be a fix for the bluetooth issue.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Have to wait for Cyan to fix it, unfortunately.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] nsvrana:
While I linpack a bit lower than some other froyo roms, it feels much smoother, the camera works well, the keyboard appears to be good, and auto brightness works properly/quickly. I'm impressed :)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sandpaperback:
Thanks for this! I've been holding off on Froyo roms because the camera and fully functioning keyboard are real sticking points for me. So far everything seems great.

My two "Aw, bummer" moments: Still no way to make a < with the physical keyboard and I'm always disappointed (on any rom) when I start the camera and it's not the Espresso cam. :-) Is it possible to just install the Espresso camera? The stock one is just so unattractive.

Neither is a deal breaker though, and I thank you very much for your work on this!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r2hudson:
Which sense rom are you running? The friendstream widget is the only thing I need from sense
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sandpaperback:
Pure Messenger is a decent replacement for Friendstream. Then for posting to multiple services, there's Simple Status Widget.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] falken98:
Wouldn't that be 99.9% working? :D
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
I prefer T-Mobile's Friend Buzz
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sandpaperback:
I forgot about that. The widget was pretty laggy for me (in terms of scrolling), so I don't use it.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] landykos:
First off Thanks for this it runs great flash was super smooth!!

Not sure if this is a silly question or not but who knows.

Whats the difference btw falshing this rom vs flashing the nightly build straight from

http://mirror.kanged.net/cm/nightly/

I assume it has to do with the google apps but is there anything else?

Also is anyone else having issues with the market not showing the paid tab?

I was able to fix this on all other ROMs by adb pusing a vending_preferences.xml but that didn't seem to work on this one.

Thanks!

give it some time download a few things and let the market load up everything will load up it just takes from a couple minutes up to hours! just do some random market searches and random downloads! do not do a titanium restore before the market is loaded or it wont load ever!!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
All my paid apps are in the market, same with the paid tabs and they seem up to date with what is on the top 10.

Tab was broken at any point in time?

Lulz I'll look into it

Hmm, you probably would be correct in that :P
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] landykos:
Yeah not sure nothing is showing up for me. I can see paid apps in the Featured list and on the Just In tab. Just no Top Paid Tab. This goes for Apps and Games.

I'll do a few more downloads and wait and see. Maybe a re-flash might help but that will have to wait til tonight.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
That's quite odd...

Did you nowipe? If so I recommend flashing.

Also try wiping /cache from recovery.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] pettigrew95:

What are the differences in this and the stock cm6 nightly?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] landykos:
I installed from ROM manager that does a wipe correct?? If not I will boot into recovery and flash that way. There is a lot on google out there about people with this issue. Some say its a google account issue.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] hyperscythe:
The market doesn't work for me. I installed from clockwork recovery. What's up with that?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Bloat removed. That's pretty much it, for now.

Unless you checked the box "Wipe data" then no, it will not have wiped.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] XiaoSiuMai:
Thanks for the quick reply r0man. I was fortunate to find a motorola h720 while hanging out at the mall. I wanted to test it out but i guess it will have to wait :P

Had issues getting Swype to work on 1.7.1, but works fine with 1.8! Thanks a lot, I love it! I did notice that Wireless Tether does not show up in the apps list anymore though, do I need to download and install the apk? If so, which one? Thanks again!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] donkey72:
Wireless tether will cause a reboot (at least all of the ones I have tried (pre 3, 7, and 8). This seems to be the case with all FROYO. CM 6 RC1, CM 6 Nightly (as of 24th), and this one.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] chairhome:
Thanks. I thought it was just me. So this is on all devices, or just the MT3GS Froyo ROMs?

Love the ROM. Unfortunately I can't get Market to install any apps. I've tried all the CM settings with reboots. Toggled wifi/3G - no dice. It downloads app but fails on the install. Coming from the G1 where I've flashed several ROM, included froyos. Partitions set up properly because I can move apps I installed using Astro or restored in Titanium. Also flashed Bloatless GAPPS and nothing gives - keep getting installation unsuccessful for market apps.

Help or ideas welcomed
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] poacher2010:
Do you have your sd card ext partition? If so, like all froyo (that I know of) for the slide, you will get an error. You can not have an ext partition on froyo. Now I could be wrong but I believe that is your problem.

Did you try disabling auto app moving? Try let it install on its own then manually move it later.

For whatever reason, the alarm function seems to be a lot quieter... I'll deal with it through audacity but perhaps a bit of change to the code to make the alarm louder?

- faylix / Local
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] droctii:
Yes, I have a partitioned SD and yes, I have disabled moving apps before too. Is there a reason why it would use the FAT32 partition even if EXT3 exists?

Also, as much as I hate this work around, is there a temp folder/location that Market downloads apps beforfe installation? Perhaps I can use Root Explorer to install them from there instead. I'm not by my computer for another few hours.

Thanks
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sandpaperback:
Froyo simply doesn't use EXTx partitions. It's not the same A2SD that has been around before.

EDIT: That may not be the best explanation, but it's the best I can do with my limited knowledge.

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
Generally, when changing the main version of your core software, you'll need to update the radio. Do that first. I can't fathom why you wouldn't install the radio update when you are clearly having a problem that is controlled by the radio...

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Bkhtc84:
yes i meant flash, and do i need to wipe phone again?..
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] donkey72:
No. You should never wipe when installing the kernel. In fact, I would recommend using clockwork to flash the kernel from the ROM that you are running.

Rom Manager, Install ROM from SD card, select it, no wipe, backup if you havent already... After reboot, open set CPU, it should autodetect the max and min.
