when I had this I didnt try the GPS but WiFi was not connecting at all, it would flip from on to off to scan to obtaining address to off to on and so on and so forth.

Also had bad reception issues, It would just loose all signal then it would not come back on unless I rebooted which became pretty annoying, some dude in youtube preaches about 1.8 but then here I read that 1.7 is the best version. What do you guys suggest?

I use WiFi alot and GPS too.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] mspry10:
I don't know if anyone has answered yet about your issue with swype. Make sure you have not moved the swype app to the sd. I was having the same problem. I moved it from sd to phone and haven't had an issue since.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] PcFish:
Anyone having USB mounting issues?

I've had force reboots and phone just freezing when trying to transfer files over.

I had wifi on at the time, but i don't think that would affect it.

Also, Before I had my wallpaper saved.

But I went to reapply it via the menu, it doesn't crop the same as before. It's more zoomed in.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] stryfe1986:
Would I be having Reception issues because I dont have the 709 Radio installed?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jojo7972:
I can't get the Tethering to work, I tried using Barnacle but when I start it my computer is not picking it up no matter how many times I refresh the wireless list.....will it work from the menu with the usb plugged in? My wireless in my building blows so I really need this, lol
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sandpaperback:
Thank you!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] pepelatino:
you have to diasble wap-supplicant in barnacle settings, so it would show on your computer, I had that issue for about 3 days, once I did everything works perfectly
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] pepelatino:
you have to go to settings in barnable and select skip wap_supplicant. then stop and restart the tethering that should make it work
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] boredpcguy:
FWIW, I used barnacle legacy and just turned the thing on... When I was unable to find the barnacle network, I:

-disco'ed my current wi-fi connection

-took note of barnacle's settings, and changed nothing (except for a reason still unknown I chose channel 4 or 6 or something)

-set up a new wifi ad-hoc network from my (shut up) VISTA craptop and matched the SSID and security settings, in my case 'barnacle' and 'open/none', and all of a sudden, barnacle appears on the wifi list and the phone says "client connected."

-surfed the web at a raging 200kbps since I'm within a half mile of an edge tower and only 85mi north of the HSPA+ loveliness of Portland, ME.

amidoingitrite?

This worked great....thank you!

"With 1.8 I was mucking around with the kernel and used the wrong offset (I think I did at least), so it is recommended that you flash dumfuq's OC v3 kernel. I have linked to it below."

May sound like a noob here but I looked around the forums and couldn't find how to flash a kernel. Can anyone let me know real quick how to do this? Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I just chose install zip from SD card inside clockworkmod and it looks to have taken successfully.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] pettigrew95:
Noticing the wifi is sluggish. I know its not my network on 2.1 my wifi made my phone fly. Also when I go into the market none of the thumbnails load when scrolling through the apps. If I click and individual app the thumbnail will show up but when I go back to list of apps it goes away. I flashed the gapps in your sig roman. Anyone else experiencing this and know of a fix? Thanks!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] shadowleo85:
not sure where this issue lies... but i tried to install metamorph onto the phone after booting this rom... and it keeps telling me i do not have enough system memory to install metamorph... than i tried to install the droid x keyboard and same problem... what gives?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sandpaperback:
Metamorph won't work with the slide. As I understand it, it's because we don't have write access to the system folder.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
So I rooted again (3rd time round now), and chose this rom since it said FN/SYM was working in 1.8... but doesn't seem to be working on 2.0 for me... Did I miss something? The last mention of the SYM button in this thread is from over a month ago.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sandpaperback:
SYM and FN working fine here.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
Well that doesn't help me :) Anyone have a suggestion to get mine working?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] droctii:
Well, I've been using v2.0 from since it's been released. However, on Saturday was the first time I tried to use the navigation and found that it took almost 10 minutes to lock on to the GPS satellites. Since then, I've had to wait for ages for it to get past the "Searching for GPS" whenever I use it. [FYI... I'm using the unbloated gapps]
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] pettigrew95:
Im noticing this too...it works just takes forever to find the GPS satellites. Anyone experiencing what I posted earlier? "Noticing the wifi is sluggish. I know its not my network on 2.1 my wifi made my phone fly. Also when I go into the market none of the thumbnails load when scrolling through the apps. If I click and individual app the thumbnail will show up but when I go back to list of apps it goes away. I flashed the gapps in your sig roman. Anyone else experiencing this and know of a fix?

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] KCRic:
I'm not having any of the issues you guys (or girls) are talking about. So far my GPS is very snappy and my wifi works perfect. Have you flashed the latest radio? You might try the 768 or 806 dumfuq v3.5 kernel also, seems to be giving great results for the ones using it on any CM6 ROM. Did you wipe before the install? If so, you might try re-flashing everything and see if that helps.

For the ones wanting to use metamorph on the slide - search for the thread 'quick n' dirty rw access'. I haven't made a theme yet so I don't know if it works 100% but you don't get the 'out of memory' error anymore:D

I was wondering r0man, any plans to make an update.zip to a newer nightly for this rom? I'm completely happy with 2.0 but just figured I'd ask.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] pettigrew95:
I performed full wipe prior to flashing. I'm using the latest dumfuq kernel. I have the latest radio as well =/
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] unknownally:
I installed Swype but it's not working. Please help me with it on my myTouch Slide.

EDIT

Nevermind, it didn't cross my mind to set the "input method."
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
So any thoughts on my Shift/FN lights? I rooted and flashed this directly, so I don't think a wipe was needed as this was most likely done when downgrading... I noticed I have the 7.07 radio, so I will update that too, but doubt thats related to my Shift/FN lights.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bled82:
So tether works on this ?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jojo7972:
Tethering works with barnacle.....have you tried that?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bled82:
im not running this rom yet wa just wanting to know cause i dont have tether on the cm 6 im running , do you know if i could tether my old g1 to the slide using barnacle?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jojo7972:
I'm sure you could, don't see why not with barnacle I tether from my slide to my pc, it works fine, just follow the instructions above here.....I'm running this rom on myslide and love it
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] KCRic:
Last time I checked the shift/fn keyboard lights don't work on CM6 at all. They're working on it. What he meant in the update was that the

buttons

worked, not the lights. Sorry:( hopefully that will be fixed when CM6.1 comes out or T Mobile officially releases froyo to the slide and they can pull the code from that.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] KCRic:
:confused: Well maybe it's just the luck of the draw with the wifi and GPS kind of like it is with the oc kernels. I did a data restore with titanium backup after installing TF 2.0, maybe there was something in there that helped mine :/ I'm not sure. Is the GPS issue with all apps that use it? Same with the wifi? I remember reading somewhere that there was an issue with certain apps preferring 3G/HSPA over wifi, you'll still see the wifi icon but the phone will be using 3G and if you thought you were on wifi it would definitely seem like it's running slow.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] droctii:
Ok. So here's a possible *solution* to the gps problem based on some searching. It is working so far for me (keeping my fingers crossed)

1. Clear data for Maps in Application Settings

2. Install the app "GPS Status" and follow the instructions it gives for resetting the GPS (clearing its cache) and downloading the "A-GPS extra data"

Perhaps that may work
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingu:
Did as suggested, phone rebooted by itself when I started GPS status. Ran the program again after it was done mounting my sd as my GPS was slow and half unreliable using Waze or Google Maps, and super big difference immediately after resetting a data. Locked on nearly instantly indoors.

844 OC kernel with current radio and Fenrix 2.0

Compass still pretty much useless, but that's always been the case.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
Ah, this makes sense, and I guess I didn't clarify I was talking about the lights on the FN/Shift button, not the buttons themselves. Thanks!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ab0m:
Are the keyboard backlights on even when the slide is closed? Appears to be the case.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
Not with mine...
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jojo7972:
To install a new radio, do you just move the .zip on the root of the phone and flash from recovery?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jojo7972:
nm, just flashed it, lol - it works fine
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] big nu:
Facebook error occurs when I try to sign in..

New to this thread so pardon my lack of know, but i recently rooted my slide and this is the rom I chose. Im trying to sign into my facebook app from the market and nothing, sign in errors occur..

Now when i check the show permissions (menu>settings>applications) im noticing orange lettering on some of the permissions espeacially in "act as an account authenticator"

Are there any "known" issues or has anyone experienced this also? if so whats the fix?

Thanks in advance..
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] mymomma8:
I know this is froyo but Flash player is not working... :/
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] guitarfreak846:
It is based off Cyanogenmod which doesn't have flash in it.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] mymomma8:
So what rom for the slide DOES have flash player? Because the only reason I want 2.2 is because of the flash player... although CM6 with OC kernel 844 is pretty sweet!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
I don't think this is ROM related. The FB app is working fine for me right now. The FB app from time to time does give me errors, but I think they are FB problems. FB yesterday started implementing new things so it may have been because of that. I know since yesterday I am not getting my usually email notifications from FB either.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jojo7972:
Yeah, I've seen those same issues too, it has to be a facebook issue and not the phone because normally all my stuff works fine.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingu:
I had installed the Aria/Legend/Espresso version of the dopio 3.5 kernel, and had gps reception problems. Keeping a gps lock in Waze or Google Maps or even GPS Status was nearly futile. Installed the espresso only version today and have had zero GPS issues, with a solid lock all the way home from work.

Not sure what is different between the two kernels that would cause this problem, but the apparent solution is to use the espresso only build on 3.5
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
...wrong thread? Or only posting here since you are using the TeamFenix rom?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] KCRic:
Not to mention, should have read the thread about those kernels - you have an espresso device, use an espresso kernel... but that person is new so I say give 'em a break just this once.

Now back to thread:D
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] stryfe1986:
Anybody having issues with connecting to WiFi? I have a wireless router here in my room I used to connect before rooting, but ever since I installed the ROM it wont connect, it will just scan, obtianing address then it turns WiFi off then it just turns into a vicious cycle of WiFi not connecting, anybody having issue with this as well? or Do I need to do something?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] killacam13:
Thanks

3 issues ... GPS doesn't work for me even after the GPS status "fix"

Wifi Tethers not working as it should ... kind of spotty ...

Kant use any of dumfuqs OC kernals ... kan I get sum help ?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
I just noticed a strange quirk. When editing a phone number in contacts, you normally do not need to hit the FN keys for numbers as it knows it is a number field. Either way, I cannot FN Lock the field and start typing, it puts all kinds of crazy wrong numbers in there. I have to hit FN for every number in order for it to enter it correctly... Anyone else, or does this not make sense?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] byto1:
I have that same issue.

Also my GPS still doesnt work...any luck?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
My GPS works, just take a while (5-10 minutes maybe) to get a lock. I'll have to search for this GPS fix some have mentioned...
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] byto1:
5-10 minutes is a long period to wait for a lock. The original stock rom, it used to take me just a few seconds-less than a minute to get one. Thats crazy.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] zachjf:
I dunno about everyone elses issues because everything on mine works great, but I am having kind of a strange issue that I can't fix;

Everytime I'm actually using the phone to talk to someone and get a text it vibrates the phone to the point people I'm on the line with can hear it and the settings to stop it are locked out of the menu. I can change them but as soon as I go back it changes back to the "vibrate" setting. Kind of annoying considering I get 100 plus texts a day and use my phone for work to talk to clients.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Willpbeck:
How to root easily and also flash this teamfenix rom I want to put this on my slide just don't know how never done before and I need to get the links for the root and the teamfenix v2.0
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
Which "vibrate" setting are you changing? There is a separate one in there for messaging. In Messaging, go to Menu > Settings > Notification Settings > remove the check mark for Vibrate on Call. Sorry if this is a setting you've already tried...

Come on dude, there are tons of rooting threads on this forum, and the download for TeamFenix is on post #1 in this thread. For rooting, I like this one from nbetcher: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=754020

However, that root method assumes you've already installed the Google SDK and have ADB working between your phone and PC.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] KCRic:
Search for the 'slide rom bible' on here - that will give you everything you need to know. Also, before you go asking randomly in threads about something - go back to the op (original post, or, first post) that usually has all the info and downloads you will need. We're all happy to help just try to post in the correct places:rolleyes:
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] zachjf:
Yea, tried that first and it stays unchecked but it still vibrates. I went in an turned off the vibrate setting in ever place possible on the phone and it still does it. Had to uninstall for the time being...sucks because its a great ROM, best I've used so far, but I can't have business calls interrupted by what one client called "an angry duck" in their ear

Camera FC

I had an issue last night (at a Fountains of Wayne show) where the camera crashed each time I stopped recording video. Luckily the video saved, but the second time I still couldn't re-start the camera even after 5+ minutes. I just got a black screen. Eventually, I checked to make sure my video appeared in the gallery then rebooted.

How do I Tether to an Ipad??

I have been racking myself for hours and getting no where...

Here is my info:

MyTouch 3G Slide (Black)

ROM: TeamFenix 2.0

Clockwork 2.5.0.1

Radio: 7.09.35.10

Kernel: 2.6.29.6 CM shade@toxygene #1

Can anyone help me out here? Have tried Barnacle and the Android Wifi tether V2.05-pre8. Have the Bin file even.

Help??? I will buy you a case of Mountain Dew...
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] RavenWulf:
Since I haven't messed with the iPad, is it able to connect to adhavoc networks? If they are I would suggest trying teamfenix 1.7.1, it is the only CM6 ROM I have had complete succes with right out the gate using wi-fi tether http://www.mediafire.com/?l9c64976fp5rtft

Thanks for your help. Not sure about the Ad Hoc network situation for the Ipad. Does anyone else know if this is possible and the best way to set it up?

Thanks!

I have the same problem. Dont know how to fix it :(
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] RavenWulf:
I ran #TF v1.7.1 for quite awhile and never had that issue have y'all tried doing a full wipe and re-install?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] banzairx7:
I'm having a pretty big intermittent issue- Complete lack of internet connectivity. Doesn't matter if I'm on Wifi, 3G, Edge. This happens about once a week and is usually cleared up by rebooting. This weekend I was down for 1.5 days and rebooting and reflashing the rom made no difference. It just magically decided to fix itself.

Anyone else run into something similar?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] KCRic:
Just so you know, if rebooting/reflashing or anything else didn't fix it then it's not the ROM that's causing it. Think about it - it just magicaly cleared itself up? No, your carrier has an issue or one or more of the cell towers do. Nothing to do with the ROM.

All this of course assumes you have the latest radio flashed (I hope by now everyone knows that and has done it). Anyway, call your carrier and have them check it out.

#TF v1.7.1 Does the Trick

Using the #TF v1.7.1 version and having no problems with connectivity to IPad.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] banzairx7:
I thought carrier at first too but wifi goes down at the same time. That's not carrier related.

I updated to the latest radio version and it's happened once for about an hour since then. It does seem to be much better than it was before the update. I don't have any hard numbers to back that up though.

Thank you... I no longer get anxiety when I look at my applications and see stupid applications that can not be removed from my phone. Thank god for root!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ProjektStreet:
So. I have flashed this rom. So far, I'm having a lot of issues. First is I keep getting a lot of FC's when I open regular apps, i.e.: Messaging, Settings (CyanogenMod Settings to be exact). WTF? lol Can you put the 2.1 Camera back on this? I liked that one much better than the 2.2 one.

Edit: Found some things missing as well. Don't have the Contacts app, phone app, or anything for phone use. Text messaging like i said FC's. Browser FC's.

Reflashing now.

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] pettigrew95:
I also heard that if you are going from 2.1 to 2.2 do not restore app data through titanium as it will bug the ROM. Restore the apk but not data.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] landykos:
Never used titanium backup so I know it wasn't that for sure.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] pettigrew95:
I would assume any app that backs up and restores apps and data like Titanium it would be the same thing...don't restore app data just the apk if you made a backup on a 2.1 ROM and are restoring on 2.2
