updated to 2.6.1 from 2.5.7 last week.

Its running great the Tron theme is a more "finished product" on it vs the 2.5.7 and I like that.

I have noticed a drop in battery life. I do email here and there and light txting and 18-20 hours of bat life. I used to get alittle over 24 hrs before it would start barking at me to plug in. So not a huge diff. But for a cleaner rom and more fluid feel than 2.5.7 i am ok with the 4-6 hours less time. Not like 18 hours is to short of a life span anyways LOL!!!
[Droid 2 Android Development] nolimit208:
lol Wifi being enabled was my culprite to battery life drop. I just didn't notice it was enabled when I reinstalled to 2.6.1 My batt life is the same or if not better than 2.5.7.

Good job. Really enjoy this ROM. Have since the beginning.
[Droid 2 Android Development] tbaker077:
Still having an issue turning off data even after another clean install. Any ideas?
[Droid 2 Android Development] UrbanBounca:
I've been having difficulty with hearing people via the earpiece. It'll only work about 50% of the time. If I power cycle the phone, and retry, it'll work fine.

Anyone else?
[Droid 2 Android Development] Filteroff:
android 2.3

Any word if we are going to be seeing blurless 2.3 from team defuse?;)
[Droid 2 Android Development] rikou_demon:
My experience has been different. The ear piece will work if I call people, but if they call me, I can hear them, but they won't hear me, so I'll have to switch to speaker mode to continue.
[Droid 2 Android Development] weltz:
Any chance of getting the Moto text messaging app? My brother uses the stock ROM and he doesn't have any of the problems I've been experiencing. (Opening the wrong thread, etc. They've all been documented places; it's a problem with the Google app)
[Droid 2 Android Development] Lithoss:
If you don't end up finding a solution for your problem, you should try handcent SMS, it rocks.
[Droid 2 Android Development] rtfield:
Where did u go Team Defuse? We need Fission Gingerbread. I am up for donating more.
[Droid 2 Android Development] weltz:
Cool, thanks. I'm using Hancent now, but I'd still love to get the Moto app if possible.
[Droid 2 Android Development] JDunc:
You need have a lot of Blur parts too get the Moto text app to work. Your best bet is a Blur based ROM or a ROM with the appropriate pieces.
[Droid 2 Android Development] grkmaster:
Quick question: .. My friend has Droid 2 Global. will roms from just the Droid 2 development section work? or should i use fission from the Droid 2 global section
[Droid 2 Android Development] JDunc:
Yes only D2G Roms from the D2G section will work for his phone.
[Droid 2 Android Development] nolimit208:
Since I have done the clean instal of 2.6.1 i have had ALOT of issues.

All i use is pandora on my phone most the time. when I unplug my headphones pandora pauses like normal but when I go to play again pandora doesn't load up and I have to restart phone to get pandora to work again.

GPS keeps enabling for some reason. its on when I restart my phone and it turns on randomly threwout the day. I get force closure on just my app drawer and other random apps.

I SBF'd before i installed 2.6.1

I also will one day get all day out of my phone on battery life and the next doing the same tasks only get 4-6 hours before I have to plug it in.
[Droid 2 Android Development] aeidian:
This Blur GB is driving me insane. I miss my Fission 2.6, I've tried twice now to like this garbage, but I just....can't...do....it. Bout to sbf back to 2.3.2 so I can restore my 2.6. I don't even see anything "cool" about this version of GB. It takes 5 mins everytime I reset just to use the phone because it's unresponsive, I suppose because it's loading. Half the time my keyboard doesn't light up, LCD Density says it's set to 220, but always reboots into 240. The lock screen is terrible, the status bar is terrible, I can't freaking stand it!

If Team Defuse posts a stock GB without all this Blur ****, I'm down, but until then, it's back to Froyo Fission.
[Droid 2 Android Development] weltz:
Is that for the base Moto text app or for their unified inbox bullcrap?
[Droid 2 Android Development] JDunc:
I'm referring to the stock text app when you first got phone.
[Droid 2 Android Development] weltz:
Bah, handcent it is then.

[Droid 2 Android Development] TidusWulf:
can someone clue me in on why my laptop won't connect to my droid 2 using the 3G wireless hotspot + the tethering patch? I'm on fission 2.5.7 of course.
[Droid 2 Android Development] UrbanBounca:
Angdroid has purchased another device and stated that while he's not using a D2 as his personal device, he will still continue developing for it. That said, I don't believe it. Fission on the D2 has come to a complete standstill anyway, and it really wouldn't surprise me to never see another D2 Fission update.
[Droid 2 Android Development] dldunckel:
Right. I saw that on his twitter (I think). I'm not expecting anything. I'm pretty happy w/ 2.6.1, but I really thought we were going to get GB. Whatever, I'll probably start looking to buy a newer phone anyway.
[Droid 2 Android Development] s1nner:
Fission for D2 is dead. Check out Liberty Gingerbread by Jrummy16!

[Droid 2 Android Development] neversummer515:
Not Dead Yet!!!

According to Angs Twitter feed, he is working on Fission 3.0!!! NOT DEAD YET!!! http://www.teamdefuse.com/blah-blah-blah/
[Droid 2 Android Development] BPMOmega:
While CM7 is building up and looking pretty interesting, I'll be sticking with Fission (for now), so it's good to know Team Defuse isn't dead. :D
[Droid 2 Android Development] neversummer515:
Just Kidding

I apparently spoke too soon. Fission is dead!!! http://www.teamdefuse.com/been-a-fun-ride/
[Droid 2 Android Development] BPMOmega:
Well, that sucks big time. After only a few days after confirming work on Fission was still going on, now he gives up? I won't say I understand the complexities he has to go through with developing on the Droid 2, but I will say I am deeply disappointed after he went and got our hopes up.

Guess I'll be switching to CM7 afterall.
[Droid 2 Android Development] popezaphod:
*sigh*

That's the risk you take when you mod your phone - that the dev(s) will up and quit when something shinier comes along.

I'm digging Liberty, and I hear nothing but good things about Apex.
[Droid 2 Android Development] mikeeg02:
Say what you want, there isnt much to do for fission. The fact of the matter is. It works. Sure they may be no gingerbread. But it works, and well.
[Droid 2 Android Development] JDunc:
He is pretty much right. I rocked 2.5.7 for about 5-6 months and loved it. There are a few tweaks and making it a full AOSP ROM that could've been accomplished. Although it is pretty lame to say Fission 3.0 coming soon, only to say just kidding a day later. CM7 has taken over!
[Droid 2 Android Development] TheSteve:
Does anyone know of any download mirrors that are still active? I need to find the d2 swype zip file. If I could find all of it I can rehost it elsewhere but I can't find a single active mirror.

What were you doing to get FC's? With the 'clock' app? Just wondering, since I use the alarm in the clock app without any problem.
[Droid 2 Android Development] :
2.2.2 & Fission ROM Manager Lite Now Up

2.2.2 ROMs and Fission ROM Manager Lite are now up.

Use Fission ROM Manager to check for updates, add ons, hotfixes and everything else.

More to come as the day goes by...

Look for Fission Status Bar Font Color Changer on FRM Full (Fission ROM Manager) soon and a couple of other apps :)
[Droid 2 Android Development] mwest316:
I just installed 2.2.1 last night, now I see that 2.2.2 is available for public release. Can I install 2.2.2 over 2.2.1 using the fission rom lite manager/bootstrapper? Or do I have to rewipe again for everything and follow original instructions with a new rom? The only reason I ask is because I see how small the 2.2.2 file is compared to 2.2.1
[Droid 2 Android Development] dudeSDCA:
The phone is in the dock, the alarm clock plus v2 app is running. The alarm goes off, I try to click dismiss, but I get FCs. I cannot actually get into the alarm app to dismiss the alarm until I remove it from the dock
[Droid 2 Android Development] :
You should be able to install over it, just make sure you make a backup first.

2.2.2 is smaller because there add ons are no longer part of the ROM and user can download and install whatever addon they want from Fission ROM Manager.
[Droid 2 Android Development] mwest316:
Thanks for the quick answer..enjoying the rom! Makes me appreciate the power of my droid 2 again
[Droid 2 Android Development] miketoasty:
Well just got my first reboot. All I did was lock my phone and it went straight to the Android screen.... Sigh.
[Droid 2 Android Development] mikeyinid:
What version of fission are you using?
[Droid 2 Android Development] smiths860:
Blur home blur contacts and blur dialer

Is there any way to get these working on fission 2.2.2....tried fused 1.1 and a few other roms....but i really like fission it would be perfect for me if these would work.....just my preferences...lol
[Droid 2 Android Development] juliend:
I was getting some lockup/reboots on 2.2.2. Flashed SBF and then reloaded 2.2.2, no reboots since except for one when plugging in USB cable to PC.
[Droid 2 Android Development] mikeeg02:
Ok. Thanks for clarifying. I dont actually have a dock, or even know what they look like! :eek:

[Droid 2 Android Development] mikeeg02:
Is there anything google cant do? lol
[Droid 2 Android Development] derte:
Music

Ok figured some stuff out - Please let me know if I need to move to a different thread:

The reason my battery was being drained was because the music app was using a crap load of network - according to spare parts

I force stop the app and it is all good, but if I reboot the music apps starts back up and eats up network

I have re-formatted my sdcard and tried a different sd card - per some other forums... going back to 2.1, but anyone have any idears?

[Droid 2 Android Development] mikeyinid:
Did you sbf? I got a few reboots the first time I flashed it but after a sbf, all is good. It took 2 sbf's actually.
[Droid 2 Android Development] juliend:
Agreed, it was the same for me. I only did SBF once though.
[Droid 2 Android Development] mikeyinid:
I'm not sure what I missed the first sbf. But when I rebooted, my phone shut down every time I connected usb. After another sbf, haven't had a problem since
[Droid 2 Android Development] Natef53:
I am having trouble downloading 2.2.

I have tried through the fission manager as well as on the PC and the download gets anywhere from 5-50mb's and then says it is complete.

Anyone else?
[Droid 2 Android Development] jimmypopulous:
I'm confused: those who donate receive early binary releases? Is there GPL'd code in those binaries that isn't being released in source form in conjunction with that?

I'd like to have this clarified before I jump in.
[Droid 2 Android Development] PDR447:
yes. no.

[Droid 2 Android Development] HerroMoto:
Just out of curiousity, has anyone ever downloaded a fission ROM without wiping data/cache? What were your results?
[Droid 2 Android Development] whezzel:
i sbf'ed one time. i have the vanilla music app install but use power amp from the market instead. i have it oc'ed to 1300 at 67 volts max. havent had a single reboot or anything else strange. i get about 30 hours of moderate usage too. awesome rom. been running 2.2.2 for about 4 days now but of course right as i submit this it freezes up and i gotta restart fml
[Droid 2 Android Development] Coderedpl:
Would be nice if there was a description for each of the things in the download manager...

And damn, I just learned something i did not know. I always thought the status light was only green....with the fission rom downloader it flashes blue too? what other colors?
[Droid 2 Android Development] mistermr:
You can make it flash pretty much any color you want. It is a RGB LED.
[Droid 2 Android Development] tbaker077:
How can I change the colors?
[Droid 2 Android Development] mikeeg02:
The modified mms.apk I have allows color change. Easy reminder allows you to change for missed calls, sms messages. Handcent messanger also allows that.
[Droid 2 Android Development] braway:
isn't there a description? it might suck, but that doesn't mean it isn't there ;P
[Droid 2 Android Development] derte:
no wipe data

I have - AGAINST THE DEV'S INSTRUCTIONS SO I DO NOT CONDONE - done this

I went from 1.2 to 2.0 then SBF'ed then from 2.1 to 2.2.1 to 2.2.2 without wiping data, but I always wipe Dalvic cache, battery stats, and cache. (worked just fine)

I ended up SBF'ing after 2.2.2 to find an issue that I was having, but nothing with the ROM
[Droid 2 Android Development] jrhoades858:
Okay so im a D2 noob, just got it two days ago and I'm coming from an eris. after reading I still do not understand how to overclock. Im on 2.2.2 and downloaded jrummys app from the market and all it says is that the module can't be installed. Anyone have any ideas?
[Droid 2 Android Development] nolimit208:
Go into Terminal. Type SU, then enter to give it super user access. type overclock.sh and follow script from there.

I did selected 3 for first script, and and 1 for second script. Works great.
[Droid 2 Android Development] nolimit208:
I selected option 3 then option 1. This put me at 1350 and works stable. I tried option 2 for low voltage but wasn't stable for me. You dont need to install jrummy's app its built in. You just need to use terminal to utilize it
[Droid 2 Android Development] Chrussell1215:
So I know this may be a stupid question but I want to double check, so I don't screw my phone up with no way out. I am currently on the 2.3.320 running tranquility 3.5. I'm really wanting to try out Fission 2.2.2 but I want to make sure it was designed for 2.3.320 and not 2.3.15. With no full SBF yet I just want to make sure I'm being safe.

Also, is there anything special I should do as far as flashing Fission 2.2.2 over Tranquility 3.5 or will I be good just following the install instructions?

Edit: Disregard my comment. I'm on a Droid X and not a Droid 2, accidentally posted in the wrong forum.
[Droid 2 Android Development] mikeyinid:
Angdroid!! The blackout theme and keyboards are sick! And I don't know why or how it would even be linked, but my phone seems to be smoother with it. I love it!
[Droid 2 Android Development] mikeyinid:

[Droid 2 Android Development] Chrussell1215:
O, Sorry just realized I'm in a Droid 2 forum, my bad I'm on a Droid X... Sorry again. I'll delete my post here and post in the proper forum.

Is anyone else having a problem with Swype with this ROM? I can't seem to get it to work at all for some reason.
[Droid 2 Android Development] peach007:
I am having a hard time installing swype and themes for some reason.can some one point me in the right direction?

edit: i boot into recovery and it tells me that the theme zip is BAD.... hmmm tried with a couple of them

edit2: got swype to work after a few reboots

nevermind, got it to work. couldn't use the theme from rom manager, had to download it seperatly
[Droid 2 Android Development] Thornfulless Rose:
OK. So Google Reader has finally hit the Anroid Market. I now use it for my RSS feeds, meaning I moved back to Fission ROM last night. The only reason I lefted was because I missed the Blur News/RSS reader widget. It was my favorite feature and wqs definitely worth dropping Fission for it. There were also other features I missed that pulled me back. But I always kept my Fission ROM Manager just in case. So now that I synced GReader with my phone I can receive all my android news and have an awesomely clean ROM. I'll tell ya man, Google released it just in time for me!

So far its running great! Like on all previous Fission versions, I'm not having any issues whatsoever!

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] khaeid:
I noticed one strange behavior

i hard reset my HD2 yesterday, after doing some changes to my Phone Weaver, the surprise was that the phone weaver settings kept the newest settings made after my last SPB Image, and before the hard reset, HOW CAN THAT BE?

And when you backup settings in XTasks it asks you: "does the backup settings hard reset are not lost" this is how they wrote it

how can this be done? how can settings be reserved after hard reset?

I flashed every ROM possible and every kernel possible but i never brick my phone. Is it possible to Brick the samsung vibrant? If o please tell me....
[Vibrant General] Demonloki:
Really? The forum does include a search feature and I'm sure that with minimal effort and a short amount of time you could easily find the answer to this question. However, since I've taken the time to read and already taken the time to post some sort of reply, I figure I might as well throw in an answer. Try flashing a 2.2 Rom, then flashing back to 2.1 without replacing the kernel. You may recall when 2.2 Roms first starting flying out that there were several issues. Eugene I believe was one of, if not the first, to fix the issue. I do have to ask, why would you want to brick your phone? Perhaps something went wrong and you would like it bricked to take back to TMobile? I've seen others try, and it usually doesn't turn out as intended. Either way, best of luck in your endeavors
[Vibrant General] sader2202:
Doing What you say only give soft brick, beside if i want to return my phone to T-mobile i'll just lie about some other issues like the phone can't take charge.
[Vibrant General] All~G1:
you really wanna brick your phone? go find the original 2.2 I9000 firmware, flash it on your phone and then try to flash back.... LOL. Dont know why you want to do this, but to each his own. If you're just trying to get an exchange then kill the battery and say it wont turn on... haha
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
This is probably the most unique question I've ever heard on these forums .

[Vibrant General] SiL3nTKiLL:
lol funny thread!
[Vibrant General] Master™:
WTH...?

Remove all system files lol.. <BRICK>Your phone goes here</BRICK>

Now wait, why would you want to brick your phone?!
[Vibrant General] Telanis:
Seriously? That's not bricking at all. That's not-working-until-you-fix-it.
[Vibrant General] masterotaku:
So, in essence what you're wanting to do is break the phone and have appear as if it's Samsung or T-Mobile's fault so you can get out of your obligation and get another phone?

What are you a three year old?

There are two ways I can think of that would perma-brick the phone. Try using search though, as I generally avoid helping people to become stupider than they already are....
[Vibrant General] greenstuffs:
throw your phone into the toilet bowl and you'll brick it, you can brick any electronics with this method and if its not enough you can brick your tv by throwing it into your bathtub full of water.
[Vibrant General] sader2202:
I try every thing you guys posted and my phone still works after i ODIN. I geuss the vibrant in un brick able.
[Vibrant General] Owenv:
There are water sensitive markers in the phone, if you really want a brick I suggest about 3 seconds of this
[Vibrant General] greenstuffs:
i think you haven't tried my method.
[Vibrant General] nearblack:
this phone is not unbrickable- but pretty damn close.

I remember Eugene actually soft bricked his phone... had to get a new one.

Has anyone tried Greenstuffs toilet brick method yet?

Hey guys,

I have a tmobile htc hd2 with hyperdroid 1.7. I recently upgraded from 1.6 to 1.7 and i initially noticed some instability in the gsm internet. Now it wont work at all. I have the apn set to epc.tmobile.com. It work in windows which also has it set to epc.tmobile.com. I also recently did the orientation fix from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803242

I thought maybe that could have been the culpret but i copied the origional hyperdroid files (zimage, cifs.ko,tun.ko,bcm4329.ko) and it still didn't fix it. And honestly i cant remember if the internet work before i did the orientation fix or not.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
if you cant do that with metamorph then you will have to change the icon in the .apk
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lennshow66:
any idea how i go about doing that??
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
you have to decompile the .apk, change whatever icons, recompile and re-sign, maybe you should search google for tutorials and that :)

I'm having issues replacing system files on my droid. No, I have no idea how to compile my own roms.

Trying to replace /system/media/audio/ui/Charger_Connection.ogg with something a bit cooler... (half life 2 suitchargeok1.wav sound)

I converted the .wav into .ogg with audacity and attempted to replace the original file with Root explorer (after renaming it of course). That didn't work, as it kept recreating the original file. Upon doing more reading I discovered there is a way to do it in recovery mode with adb. Failing to figure out how the command line thing works, I tried Droid Explorer and still no luck. Permission denied, so I looked at the chmod outputs and it looks like

-rw-r--r-- for all the files in this directory. Changing them with su chmod 777 didn't work either:

su chmod 777 Charger_Connection.ogg
Permission denied

I can't figure this out, the device is rooted and in recovery mode. How does it still have the balls to deny me permissions?

I'm using the Axura205Vibrant rom if that helps and the latest usb driver from android-sdk-windows.

Thanks for reading.
