download the gapps from prev page and reflash v7 with immediately flashing the gapps after without restarting, and you will be prompted to sign in upon startup like always

have you tried the "camera magic" app off the market as a workaround?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Kagedin:
Just tested camera magic, kept fcing every time i opened it

EDIT: On a side note i tested the music player and it worked perfect, I had none of the issues listed in the faq, also wired headset worked for me, but the icon doesnt appear in the status bar showing its plugged in
[Droid Eris Android Development] vrienduinen:

Can someone add a link to the FAQ on the first page. I keep having to search to find it.

[Droid Eris Android Development] mordant80:
Yes, I know what the FAQ (Last updated for V6 as of now) says... I'm asking if anyone has actually tried it in V7
[Droid Eris Android Development] jbarcus81:
My 'soft-keys' aren't lighting up.. is there a setting I need to change? Or just part of the beginning stages..
[Droid Eris Android Development] lp4261:
I had no soft key lights on V6. I wouldn't expect them to work until Kaos gets the main issues resolved (such as the camera).
[Droid Eris Android Development] jbarcus81:
Copy that.. works for me.. Made a lot of improvements though.. just wish I knew how to do this..
[Droid Eris Android Development] lp4261:
So can anyone confirm for me what they did to get it to install? Killakris said that a full wipe, flash V7, then flash gapps was throwing him into a bootloop.
[Droid Eris Android Development] libraryclg:
Updated wiki page a little, I'm sure rougegoat will also update with more stuff later.

Link to FAQ page: https://github.com/rougegoat/KaosGingerbread/wiki/KaosGingerbread-FAQ
[Droid Eris Android Development] NickAVV:
I'm really really impressed. Keyboard is very usable now, everything seems fluid and good. Then I installed LauncherPro and SetCPU and it really screams. :) Nice work.

EDIT: Been playing around with it for an hour or so now. I just can't get over what an improvement it is since v6. Seriously, my mind is blown
[Droid Eris Android Development] Toolanddiemaker:
VoIp

I see kaos posted to his twitter feed that he thinks he has VoIp figuered out for GB. So V8 not far off I bet. Just fyi.
[Droid Eris Android Development] brew182:
Just installed and it is faaaaast, finally my daily user .

What i did to install :

1. Wipe

2. Flash v6

3. Flash v7

4. Flash gapps

5. Boot!

I had to reboot when i started before the market apps would install but after that i was good

Thanks pk! Ill do some testing later
[Droid Eris Android Development] Fodizzle1978:
What an improvement!!!

This thing is smooth as butter....worlds beyond where KF was at this stage...My daily from here on out! I miss some of the Cyanogen adds but great so far. Kudos PK! Wipe, fresh V7 install, gapps, titanium, boot, restore apps!

396 on Quadrant....not bad....will only get better!
[Droid Eris Android Development] shatterpoints:
Just tested V7 it installed ok, as well as gapps. I immediately noticed a speed increase when signing in (before setcpu was installed). Once setcpu and autokiller were configured this ROM took off ! It is extremely fast.

*GPS works for me I tested it while driving to and from my bank which is a 30min round trip from my office.

*I can access my SD card via and app called "Dual Mount SD Widget" I tested it several times and it works like a charm, the app is 0.99 on the market I think I've had it since my vogue days.

I will update this as I test further.
[Droid Eris Android Development] BeinDroid:
As has been stated. This screams. no setcpu tweaks for me, just launcher pro and v7. Daily rom for me now
[Droid Eris Android Development] MrObvious:
Get me a camera and this may be my daily ROM.
[Droid Eris Android Development] woofers02:
Man, this thing is about 1 or 2 versions away from me saying goodbye to KaosFroyo for good (never thought I'd say that with my Eris). Looking good, looking real good.
[Droid Eris Android Development] rougegoat:
The FAQ should be updated for V7 now. Though, judging from Kaos's twitter, he's gonna be updating to v8 in the near future. So who knows how long it'll stay up to date.
[Droid Eris Android Development] shatterpoints:
I don’t want to have KaosGingerbread on my phone now, but I can’t mount/map it to my computer. How can I get a different ROM on it?

You should just use the nandroid backup you should have made before flashing a new rom. Assuming you’re asking this question, you haven’t done that. In that case, you should boot into recovery and use the second option(should be something like “USB-MS-TOGGLE”). This should mount/map your drive so you can add a new rom to flash.

For those of you who want to be able to mount/map your SD card, use this.

The app auto mounts the sd card when you connect to your pc with a usb cable.
[Droid Eris Android Development] killakrishook3r:
i dint have to flash 6 for mine to work, just FYI.

much improved thanks kaos
[Droid Eris Android Development] loveoffroading:
Just flashed gingerbread on my eris and so far love it, thanks
[Droid Eris Android Development] Fodizzle1978:
Voice Search

On a whim I uninstalled Voice Search through Titanium and reinstalled from market and all voice actions are now working!!! Inching closer and closer to flawless! Thought I would pass along!

Added note, my youtube app plays audio and video just fine, won't rotate cuz of the sensor issue (which a little birdy said we are getting real close to fixing) but if you dbl tap it goes full screen.
[Droid Eris Android Development] rougegoat:
I'll add it to the FAQ as another question, but since it's a paid app(nothing wrong with that) and a lot of people won't want to pay for it, I'm not gonna list it as a solution. Personally, I have nothing against paying for an app unless it labels itself as a "donate version" while also unlocking new features. That's just false advertising, as it ignores the meaning of the word "donate"./mini-rant

I can confirm the voice fix you mentioned. I'll add it to the FAQ also. as for the youtube stuff, I'm still getting no video on it. Kudos if it's working for you though. A tip: if you want to get the rotated full screen video before the sensors get fixed, just double tap the video and it'll automatically switch to landscape video viewing.

Oh yeah, time to download!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Tuckface1:
i don't know how he does these things. I installed v6 last night after i messed up my froyo rom, had a little trouble getting gapps installed and getting it to boot, and then i check back today and not only was v7 up, but then in less than 20 minutes, i see v8 released! I can't even keep up with installing these roms! thanks PK!
[Droid Eris Android Development] stiltzkin:
PK, you are officially the man.

(As if you weren't already)
[Droid Eris Android Development] lp4261:
I'm assuming one could just flash over v7?
[Droid Eris Android Development] libraryclg:
That's what I did with v7, flashed that and gapps over v6. I would flash now except I left my charger at home and my battery is low. :(

seriously???
[Droid Eris Android Development] labnjab:
Seriously debating on trying this. Have it flashed and nand back up already on my phone but not sure if I want to use as my daily rom quite yet. Is it a lot better then v39 kaos froyo? Just wonder what other people think of this before I make the switch over.
[Droid Eris Android Development] rougegoat:
No, it's not any better. Almost all of the benefits of Gingerbread aren't available on our phones. This ROM doesn't have a camera or full MMS, and many other issues. For now, if you're debating on which to go with, default to KaosFroyo

(not that this ROM isn't good, it's just not quite up to the snuff of KaosFroyo.)
[Droid Eris Android Development] labnjab:
Thank you. I will stick with froyo for now. Didnt realize mms wasnt working either must of missed that.
[Droid Eris Android Development] eklipze:
Better is totally subjective

Yea you can use this as a daily driver. It really depends on your usage paradigm. Everyone uses their phone differently. Its plenty fast but theres no cyanogen stuff in it yet.

Flash it and try it out. Gingerbread doesnt bite ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] kerfex:
OK Here is what I have....

Sweet! Sweet! Sweet! Thanks KAOS. O.K. mine is running uber smooth. All my apps run just fine. I did a flash over V.6 straight to V.8. All GApps running. My Root Explorer runs no FC's.

Here is the one weird thing. I went to check if the Cam was working, and as we all know its not yet , which is just fine I know there are more important things to work out.

Anyway, when I hit the Home button and went back to my main, I guess " Phone top" ha ha. My Beautiful Widget was wicked smooshed. I like the Smaller home, and it does not stretch across the entire screen anymore. Just about 2/3r'd of it. But Crystal Clear.

Thanks again KAOS. Awesome , awesome, awesome....
[Droid Eris Android Development] lp4261:
My gmail app still gives me issues. Is there a fix out there that I missed?
[Droid Eris Android Development] McFluffnStuff:
Not anymore, anyways ;)

Seriously, this is a huge improvement coming from v6.

It's like a completely different ROM.
[Droid Eris Android Development] rougegoat:
No, Gmail is known to be unstable. Some people have it working just fine, other people get force closes on it all the time.

so i went from v6 to v8, did a full wipe and flashed v8, and flashed conaps CFSv9 to add the smartass governor to it. I did not install the gapps. Let the phone boot, used adb to push my data/apps back, and used adb to remove all the system/apps i don't use, and then used adb to push the gapps files to their correct locations on my phone, and this seemed to work perfectly. I do not use a lot of the apps in the gapps package though, i download my apps form the market (such as gmail, voice search, etc) and as such, my voice search works better than before. My GMail is atleast working enough to get by (i can view my messages, but if i do too much, it force closes, using default email app works though).

Any apps that i pushed back to my phone that had force closes seemed to be fixed by a simple re-install from the market.

All in all, amazing OS. Can't believe this device has such a smooth running version of gingerbread, I thank to you kaos!
[Droid Eris Android Development] johnston9234:
just flashed KGv8 straight from KFv29 (or whatever is newest) and it worked like a charm. I can say to all of you that gingerbread is working great for me with almost the same speeds i got from KF even at the most recent updates. I encourage you to try it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] punk.kaos:
Glad its working, I've not hugely tested that feature :)

[Droid Eris Android Development] NickAVV:
I flashed v8 over v7 and then noticed the Gapps were gone. I went back into recovery and flashed them, but they still aren't appearing. Am I gonna have to start over? D;

EDIT: Never mind, I reflashed v8 and then the Gapps immediately after and it worked. I had to go through the Google Account setup again, but after that my homescreens and apps and data were all still in place, so woohoo! :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] Fodizzle1978:
Well, I received a call...haven't tried placing one...but worked like a charm....you get the voip lag but definitely something cool to play with.
[Droid Eris Android Development] erisdenile:
just flashed V8 from KF V29 and then flashed gapps and no luck, none of the gapps are their, any suggestions? Also none of my contacts are over.

v8 was the first version I'm playing with and so far its at least as fast as the froyo roms already! Running it with ADW Ex and setcpu at 768 (although it was already fast before I even realized I hadn't overclocked it). The only issue I'm having is Wi-Fi (suppose to be working right). I put in my WEP code as usual for set up and it obtains IP address attempts to connect, says disconnected and attempts the whole process over and over. did I miss something? Its easily already developed enough to use daily if one wanted to!
[Droid Eris Android Development] lamorelli:
I have been lurking around PKs roms since about KF32 and finally I created an account just to say that there is a free app/trial called multi mount SD-card that automatically mounts/maps your SD card. It's a widget and works perfect for me.

Also wanted to give my thanks and appreciation to PK. You're the man! Keep it up!
[Droid Eris Android Development] ivorycruncher:
Not sure about WEP, but it works on my WPA access point just fine. I would highly recommend switching to WPA if your wireless equipment supports it, as WEP is obsolete, and can be too easily hacked.
[Droid Eris Android Development] donthemighty:
how did u get ur cpu at 768? my eris freezes if i clock it over 710, nvm just saw that my eris can clock up to 806 and freezes at 844
[Droid Eris Android Development] killakrishook3r:
weird mine went to 768 just fine

[Droid Eris Android Development] mudsloth:
GPS doesn't seem to be working for me either.

Random question: anyone get WordFeud to work? Strangely, I can live w/o GPS for now, but I can't live w/o WF. Must....play....with.....letters..... Other than that, this is definitely usable day to day. PK is truly a benevolent god. :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] Randull:
An app called CPUBoostlite is how I do my overclocking, its an app by Conap. I've been able to run it at 806 all day today, and on older versions I couldn't run 710 reliably. Definitely a huge speed and stability boost for me going to KGB.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Bootlejr88:
Great job Kaos!!! I am impressed with all your work. I rooted my eris with KF, and now moving up to KGB. I've only been rooted for 3 months, and have done alot of research on most of the ROM's out there. Your ROM's are the BEST that I have found. Keep up the good work!!!

Still on of the fastest roms ive used. However i dont have a market which is a problem. I cant seem to get the gapps file to flash but doesnt do anyth9ng for me. I am currently on v8, do i need to go back to v6 then flash gapps then upgrade back to v8?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tdubs99:
I believe it has been mentioned earlier in the thread that if you are having issues with gapps, be sure to flash imediatly after you flash the rom, dont flash the rom boot, then reboot to flash gapps.
[Droid Eris Android Development] asilentcivilian:
i saw someone say they flashed conaps v9 kernel and install cpu boost to overclock. just wanted to say that whenever i flash the kernel, market doesn't download any apps for me. was there a certain flash order?
