Facebook relaesed FB app 1.3.2... No possibility to sync anymore... But you can use, like i said before, Syncmypix to get the pictures from your FB contacts to your phone contacts.

Another optins is uning Phonebook 2.0 (but i personaly dont like it). For me syncmypix works great is is doing exactly want i want it to...

FB Sync App

The problem I found is actually the FB app. I think by now most of you would know this. I uninstalled the FB app, and instead just use the Contacts native sync to add in FB account contacts...every one on FB with photos is now loaded into my phone...once...:o
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Donald Nice:
The failure is fixed.. I think facebook changed someting, now you can sync via buildin facebook sync.. and update faecbook to 1.3.2! Then everything will work fine!

Enter Recovery, Wipe everything, and then load the custom OR generic rom *.zip

hard to read, hard to understand

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Veritas06:
Which ROM did you flash? CyanogenMOD? His ROM's don't include the Google Apps so there should be a link along with the ROM with Gapps to get those applications.

Use CM6.1 instead

#TeamFenix (IRC channel: #mytouchslide on Freenode) presents Cyanogenmod 6

Details/Goal: I've owned Android phones for about 2 years now, I've always enjoyed making minor tweaks to the previously simple CyanogenMod so that it would suit my purposes (lightweight, fast, good battery life). When CM6 came along I was slightly distraught that it had taken a turn for heavily drifting from the old AOSP with Google Apps (not entirely for the worse though). So I decided that I will modify CM6 to suit my needs and eventually compile it from source instead of relying on Eugene's or the nightlies.​

Changes:

2.0

-Stuff was done, or something

-EVEN MOAR AUDIO FILES

-Better bootanimation

-100% untested!

1.9 (unreleased)

-**** all

1.8:

-Rebased on newest nightly

-Removed lots of crapware

-Made a flashable .zip that will let you restore said crapware

-Played with the kernel

--Apparently broke with the kernel, must use OC kernel (I think)

-It's BLACK!

-Fixed the force closes (by way of apk removal) of the Pinyin IME/OpenWnn IME.

1.7.1:

-Minor build.prop change to allow stock Swype to install/work

-something else I forget

1.7:

-Removed Swype as it is for wrong device (try the 2 linked below

-Custom pr0tips.apk (built off LithiumMod's source, thanks guys!)

-Bootanimation is back (custom #TeamFenix one soon!)

-Bluetooth audio (possibly) fixed, see instructions below

-Fixed the provision annoyance
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Hellraz0r:
Flashed and running. All good.

I think I'm having poor 3G reception at this time. WiFi works though....

I can confirm Bluetooth is working!

Keyboard works except the FN and Shift indicators.

More testing tomorrow....
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Hellraz0r:
I was able to update Swype using my method here:

I'm currently on 7.08.35.04 radio. Will try 7.09.35.10 tomorrow.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Alright, that's what I'm on atm
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] elliotshoe:
flashing now

All the roms i've seen for the slide so far use ADW or HELIX launcher. To be honest I don't hear much talk about launcher pro. Is there a reason people don't use launcher pro? Or is it just personal preference?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] misterfamilyguy:
rawr! i just finished flashing v1.1 and it works awesome, whats diff with v1.2?...OK flashing v1.2, camera and camcorder work great
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] nsvrana:
Can anyone confirm the camera is working well?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] elliotshoe:
It is working.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] nsvrana:
Awesome :)

Going to swap out my other froyo rom for this one and see how it goes.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] daewond3r:
So far, so good.

Apps2SD isn't working, right? Or do I need to do something to enable it?

I'm already missing certain Sense elements but the things I've gained are keeping my interest.

Thanks to all devs involved!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] eleeo037037:
Thanks. Great rom, camera/camcorder working. Not sure how to get apps to sd. Also Has anyone figured out how to get swype working?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Personally I HATE Helix and Launcherpro is going to be a paid app eventually, I don't an issue with people making their applications cost money but I prefer to support a developer who's work will be free forever (hopefully) and accepts donations.

and with ADW I can set the overshoot to insanely high amounts :D

Apps2SD works fine (tested Froyo's native move to SD, with the Dictionary.com application on a 100% FAT32 card)

I can suggest some replacements to Sense applications if you wish (Beautiful Widgets + it's widget packs are great alternatives to their stock Espresso counterparts)

I'm not quite sure, I thought I had it working but it errors out (wrong device). You could try one of these versions listed, I will contact Eugene today or tomorrow to see if he has any insight

Also I was partially wrong about the camera being 100% fixed, the flash doesn't work (I saw a commit that probably will fix it by @cmsrc so it may be working tomorrow)

edit: The camera LED only works for the camera, not external programs. The aforementioned fix should correct it.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] poacher2010:
Apps2SD works, go into SETTINGS; CYANOGENMOD SETTINGS; APPLICATION SETTINGS; then check able to move apps to external and set storage to external... then just move all apps that you want to the SD card and your all set! :-)

Sent from my ROOTED myTouch 3G Slide Froyo CM6
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] elliotshoe:
Its not Apps2SDext, its the native froyo apps2sd

I'm liking this rom so far and will use it as my daily tomorrow and see how it goes.

Some Issues:

The only way to bring up the lock screen is to press the power button or menu button. Home, trackpad, back, genius doesn't.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
What's wrong with the Froyo implementation? Personally I think the old method was a PITA

Also those aren't issues, but configurable options. See CM Settings > Input > Trackpall unlock/wake. The others seem rather redundant (do you really wanna wear out home/menu/back instead of using the trackpad? Personal preference I guess, you can set WAKE_UNLOCK in the /usr/keylayout files though if that's really your cup of tea)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] elliotshoe:
I never said the anything was wrong with froyo's implementation anywhere o.o

It's just that on the stock htc rom it does this and I thought it was an issue. Didn't know it was as simple as mapping the keys in some config file. Thanks for clearing all this up all I need is the trackpad.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] rok0187:
ahhh idk about froyo roms iam stuck on my custom sence ie.friend stream so it makes me not want to chang and just wait till 2,2 comes out with it
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Oh I thought you were implying that there was something wrong with Froyo's, my bad

No problem, I recommend disabling surface dithering under Performance, makes scrolling much more fluid in my opinion.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Try this

It may not work, from what I've seen it's not compatible with Froyo.

Use Meebo from the market instead if it doesn't work.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] em2drvr03:
the only reson i want the native IM app is bc it doesnt use data so it saves me on battery
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Ah, with 1.7 your battery should be lasting for around 20 hours with moderate usage if you have "broken in" your battery.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] em2drvr03:
ok well ima see how long i can get my batt to go 1st then ill try some IM apps....i might pick up and extended batt soon
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Try breaking in your battery if you haven't already.

1. Charge to 100%

2. Use until phone turns off and won't turn back on

3. Charge until the LED turns green, then for 2 more hours

4. Wipe battery stats in recovery.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] KellyLewis3985:
heres a couple of things I have found so far with this when I flashed this ROM I received a GMAIL saying thank you for buying your new Nexus One I have a MTSlide also anytime you blacklist a phone number all sounds are killed phone doesnt ring texts dont sound off nothing.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Did you buy a Nexus? :P
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] KellyLewis3985:
no i didnt lol also you can take the build.prop and the swype app and unzip the rom add them to the proper areas and rezip rom i flashed and everything works great
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Doing that now.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
New version is up
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] poetik517:
is it guaranteed that apps2sd is working because my system memory is taking a beating right now. i have application install set to external. my card is all fat32.

previously on slidemeroot5r1 w/ ext2 partition, internal was down to 65mb w/ all apps installed. i'm not even halfway done installing and i'm down to 78mb. my sdcard storage has only gone down about .20gb
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] n1ghtl1fe:
Yessssssssss is all I can say. This rom should be stock rom. Brings me back to the days of flashing cyanogen on my g1 maybe ill make a video of it tomorrow. I love it tho battery life is a lot better than what slidemeroot was giving and its a lot smoother navigating thru it.

Seriously amazing work I hope it ppl start making themes to flash over it and stuff :)

Oh and one more thing remeber being able to flash fonts over roms to change system fonts? Can we still do that ?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Yes, apps2fat32 is confirmed working with 1.7.x.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] KellyLewis3985:
Hey Roman your doing an excelent job with this I have one request if you can put the stock messaging widget back in there the big one like in the stock 2.1 full screen would be awsome.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] acejoker25000:
the entire app doesnt go onto fat32 so that is why your memory is going down so fast! different apps put different amounts on the fat32 partition so no matter what internal memory will decrease! aps2fat32 isnt a replacement for aps2ext and i really want a froyo with aps2ext
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
The one from the stock Espresso? Unfortunately that is impossible, as it requires the HTC Framework. However the stock Android one is far faster :)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] KellyLewis3985:
also on your screenshot you show the sense ui clock with the weather how did you get that I really want that.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] poetik517:
if that's the case, then yea i do too! i had major space running slidemeroot. and to think, i gave up my ext partition for froyo lol.

everything else is great tho. preciate all the devs' work, input & support. =]
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] XiaoSiuMai:
Hey r0man. Msging from my phone. Flashing slidemeroot5r1 fixed it. Flashed that rom had working 3G then I flashed back to 1.7 and working like a champ right now. Thanks forall the help and for this awesome rom of course
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] RavenWulf:
That appears to be Beautiful Widgets not Sense flip clock... one of the few apps I have gotten that is a pay app but well worth it to me

by the r0man loving the serving of FroYo on top of my Espresso:D
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] KellyLewis3985:
Someone let Eugene know that theres a new update out for the MTSLIDE that makes impossible to root I had a friend come over and I was gonna root his slide for him I tried every root method for the Slide and when its in recovery it still shows that its offline I plugged my phone in and it showed I was in recovery
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] poetik517:
anyone able to get t-mo visual voicemail setup? mine gets stuck at "getting account status" and then force closes.

disregard. needs to be installed on phone, not external. silly me.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] em2drvr03:
i just flashed the droid mutlitouch keyboard ...and found out it doesnt work on 2.2 and there anyway i can uninstall it it without having to reflash the rom??

heres a stupid question im trying to install swype im doing this command exactly how I type it on the command prompt adb install Users\Jessica\Downloads\Swype.apk and it tells me this /sbin/sh: pm: not found even when i try logcat it gives that that same thing what am i doing wrong

told you it was a stupid question I figured it out my bad
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
You can't adb install from recovery

Type "adb push Users\Jessica\Downloads\Swype.apk /system/app" from recovery.

Someone asked about the widget, it's called Beautiful Widgets, a few bucks in the market, a great buy imho.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] KellyLewis3985:
well thats very usefull too i decided to boot the phone up and try the install and it worked thank you man i really appreciate get that donate account set up for yourself man i will be definetly be donating
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Lol, with the new Market security platform I do not believe apps2ext2/3/4 will work anymore, but don't quote me on that.

That's great! Glad to hear your problem got resolved

It's quite worth it, great dev and great widgets (2 packs last time I checked)

Lol no problem :)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] em2drvr03:
They have it working on the g1 with froyo
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
I mean when it comes out (Gingerbread).

A quick headsup guys: HTC just dropped the Mytouch Slide kernel source, so #TeamDouche probably will have a brand new kernel sometime soon :)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] KellyLewis3985:
Has anyone gotten Yahoo mail to working Im trying to get it set up for the mail app on this Rom and it wont do it if someone has a fix please post
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kashinc:
bluetooth

my bluetooth is not working tried the fix by clicking audio off then back on and you cant hear anything and anything you say cant be heard on the other end.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jreed3786:
AMEN, acejoker!!! I don't have any idea who came up with this terrible apps2fat32 idea on froyo...but it's such a pain in the butt. We were in heaven when all we had to do was install an .apk and bam, it was fully on sd. This moving of apps is plain out DUMB!

One thing that, IMO, does NOT blow...is the awesome bevy of devs in here that are trying to bring a complete froyo to the masses. Thank you guys for ALL your work, whether great success...or EPIC FAIL! Keep devvin'...we tip our hats to you for feeding our flash addictions. :D
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Well Google devised the idea of apps2fat32 so that an app could run on a class 2 SD card without having any major slowdown that would occur with having the entire application on the SDcard. Personally I prefer Froyo's method, it's simpler. I can understand why some people are turned off by it though, hopefully now that the kernel source is out we will have apps2fat32 and apps2ext2/3/4 for everyone who wants that.

Also, I modified the bluetooth fix on the front page to reflect the new information brought to my attention. Sorry for not being able to confirm it myself, I don't have a bluetooth device :(
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] poetik517:
I like the fact that we have the option to choose and to move back & forth. but if I choose external & its not all going to external, to where I see minimal decrease in internal, then I dont see the point.

heres to more possibilities w/ the kernel.

..any idea about my double apps? they vary after each reboot. my drawers cluttered.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Oh, protected applications (paid and some free) won't transfer to the SD card. #itsafeaturenotabug

Umm, not sure about your double apps. Do you happen to have an ext2/3/4 partition?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jreed3786:
Yeah, r0man... I get the same thing, too...using strictly fat32. I believe it happens when you have apps installed on Automatic or External, then realize that it uses a widget...and you choose Move to Internal. I think it then creates an icon for the moved app that now exists in another place on your phone or sd. This works both ways, I believe.

I, am having wierd probs with swype not staying enabled, so....I just reinstalled strictly to internal, and I'll post with results after I get some much needed rest.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Question to you guys having problems with double applications, do you have "Allow Application Moving" enabled in CM Settings?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] poetik517:
why of course we do =]. shame on us?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
I have no idea if you're being sarcastic or not (sleeeeeeeeep deprived here) :confused:

Anywho, try rebooting, I'm off to sleepy time!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] poetik517:
lol. was insisting that the root of the problem was found. I had it enabled. disabled & rebooted & good to go. =]

its best for all widgets to go on internal right?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Widgets + games should be on internal

Everything else probably will work fine on external
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sino8r:
r0man, I just have to kiss ass for a bit and say thanks for the rom and cooking the only froyo port for the MTS that has A2SD working properly!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] KellyLewis3985:
im gonna mess around with getting the mail working on this rom i will let you know what i find and if i can get it working if someone with more experience with building roms could also do this it would be great thanks in advance
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r2hudson:
Yeah I got my yahoo mail working, I had to do it manually tho
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] TrueBlue_Drew:
You do need to move it to internal storage. I was having the same problem on the nightlies with a2fat32. All widgets, Keyboards, live wallpapers need to be on internal. I found that when those were on external I had nothing but probs. I think when it prepares the sd card or something it resets the settings saved on the phone. It was even happening when I would use the usb connection. It would reset my live wallpaper too.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Oh, yes, probably is a good idea for anything that gets accessed frequently to be on internal storage.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jreed3786:
Thanks, guys!!!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bournefusion:
Using 1.7.0:

Anyone noticing lag when going from the unlock to the home screen? The slider stays up for a second and then finally decides to show me the home screen.

I've also noticed that if my phone has been horizontal and I unlock it, it takes a bit for it to realize it's been rotated to vertical.

Anyone else finding this? Other than these two slow/laggy things, it seems fast.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
Try disabling orientation sensor for ADW.

I haven't experienced either of those issues, maybe you are running too many applications?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] KellyLewis3985:

First I did this 1.7 now I redid whole process for 1.71 and still I have no vibrate function on my phone when anyone calls or texts. Anyone else having this problem? Is there a setting or easy fix?

Edit: Ok so for some reason stock with this rom when I lower volume to vibrate it doesn't work off the bat you got to go to phone settings . Sounds . Vibrate . Set to always. My default was on never. My fault but maybe this will help someone else.

do we have to do a full wipe whenever updating (im running 1.7.0, wondering in case a major update comes out :-))
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] r0man:
You do not _HAVE_ to wipe between updates that are 1.7.x, but it's a good practice to get into. You will, however, need to for the 1.8.x series.
