lets keep this one nice clean

no Krackens this time ;)

everybody play nice this go around OK
[Droid Eris Android Development] greatbigdragon:
Do you mean where you hold the volume up while the phone boots?
[Droid Eris Android Development] wolken007:
Received the black screen as well.
[Droid Eris Android Development] punk.kaos:
Let it sit for a while. Apparently my opengl fix is screwing with the boot screen. It *IS* booting! It just takes a while to get through the boot the first time.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gkersting:
Thanks, I ended up pulling battery and then was able to get into recovery to do Nand restore. I will not do a full wipe when I try this again.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tombepa:
Mine will not boot either. Black sceen and one quick vibration every 30 seconds or so. Flashed twice.
[Droid Eris Android Development] punk.kaos:
Logcat tell you anything interesting?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tombepa:
This may sound totally stupid, but what is logcat? Sorry, not a dev, just a Joe Smo that loves you guys' work and flashes new roms often.
[Droid Eris Android Development] punk.kaos:
Heh, don't worry about it. Its Android's internal log. If you don't know what it is, don't worry about trying to get it. You won't know what it's telling you anyway :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] tombepa:
Thank you for understanding. I would love to learn to develop but I just now started my programming classes in school and I dont think they will touch on android at all. I will have to teach myself but want to get a better crasp on other languages first so I can get in a better job. Thanks for all your work Kaos.....and you other devs like Tazz, Workshed, Conap just to name a few.
[Droid Eris Android Development] brew182:
I'm getting the same problem, black screen with the 30 second vibrations, I can check out the logcat stuff if ya let me know what to look for :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] brew182:
Scratch that lol, i guess fourth times a charm, cant wait until this is fully useable!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Bimmer323:
How long did it take to boot up? I let mine sit in the dark for 17 minutes (3rd attempt) and got nothing.

Thanks.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jaw174:
i flashed over v38. took about 4-5 mins to boot,(no animation, but you should always WIPE, right!)

a bit laggy once running (opening windows, scrolling across screens), but it is very usable! Calls, Texts, interWebs.

looks very sweet, no crashes! It's just our slow Eris hardware, which means it just needs optimization, not that it sucks!

I almost feel like it just needs a kick in the cpu clock pantaloons to run better. Keep up the good work!

i expect v6 to be done by the time i get home from work. K tkx bye. :p
[Droid Eris Android Development] elitenls:
Waiting on baited breath Kaos; keep that **** hoppin'. I hope I leave before you guys - because otherwise, I will feel abandoned. You Dev's keep these old-ass phones relevant!

Thank you! :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] kerfex:
Gingerbread does something screwy to the phone....

OK This is strange. I installed V.4 last night to check it out and yeah Visuals have gotten better. Mic worked, nice job, etc....

I use Clockwork mod Recovery and I did an nandroid BU before I tried it. When I installed V4 I did a full factory wipe and then went to each in the advanced and formatted the cache and each directory EXCEPT the SDcard.

No when I rebooted into recover and did a nandroid recovery, everything was all F-up after the restore. How can this be when I did a full factory reset and re-flashed the rom????
[Droid Eris Android Development] USSENTERNCC1701E:
What does all F-up mean?
[Droid Eris Android Development] x2kjosh:
I must say, i'm impressed. Once bluetooth works I have my everyday new rom! i also overclocked to 806400.
[Droid Eris Android Development] punk.kaos:
If you overclock and use spare parts to disable animations, its actually not too bad. Still not Froyo fast, but absolutely usable.
[Droid Eris Android Development] lp4261:
Stoked! Thanks Kaos. So are you working on an update for Legendary?
[Droid Eris Android Development] punk.kaos:
Yep, its in the works as well.
[Droid Eris Android Development] kerfex:
Means every thing was all messed up, Some menus looked like Gingerbread while others looked like Froyo. i.e some menus were black with white letters, while others were white with grey letters. The apps drawer was the Gingerbread one not the froyo one but the Notification bar was froyo. I mean weird.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mdparent:
Looks great. Still a little slow and choppy on performance. calls work fine. getting text and emails fine. no wifi and no bluetooth. Going back to my V39 froyo untill next version. Great work on this PK. Keep it up. Thanks
[Droid Eris Android Development] tombepa:
Still will not boot. Oh well, maybe next version.
[Droid Eris Android Development] playpolo4life:
ill give it a go again and see where i get.
[Droid Eris Android Development] droidrage2010:
black screen

Guys, I had the black screen too, but I let it sit for a few, and it booted right up into KGB.

Great work PK. Look forward to further revisions..
[Droid Eris Android Development] brew182:
I had wiped and flashed 4 times before it finally worked, idk what finally got it to work
[Droid Eris Android Development] kerfex:
Dies not charge

Hello Kaos,

OK Version 5. I flashed over V38 with conaps kernel v.8 and like others got the black screen but after about 7 min it booted in GB. Yeah!!!But my battery level was really low so I plugged in the USB cable. It did not charge while plugged in. Was not sure if you were aware of that or not. keep up the awesome work and I am back to V.38 for now. I need the GPS....
[Droid Eris Android Development] punk.kaos:
Hmm, I'll have to take another look. It WAS charging in V4, but I didn't actually test that in V5.
[Droid Eris Android Development] dwrecording:
Me to
[Droid Eris Android Development] USSENTERNCC1701E:
Are you sure your battery isn't charging, the light does not work, look at the batt status.
[Droid Eris Android Development] kerfex:
Never mid I rebooted and now it is chargeing...Go Figure......
[Droid Eris Android Development] neederishelp:
I'ts charging for me :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] kerfex:
Yeah, thje battery status icon was not moving, so I assumed not charging. Then I rebooted and it started charging......
[Droid Eris Android Development] kerfex:
Cant get past lock screen

PK So I flashed GB V5 over KF V.38 with the Conaps kernel version 8. It will go to the lock screen, but will not unlock and the screen goes Black for a few min and then does it all over again.

If I would have to guess, I would say there is a bug in the GL/Display driver. I guess I will have to await Verson 6. I love this!1 Thanks Kaos!

[Droid Eris Android Development] crax0r:
kaos, it doesn't boot... and where did the bootanimation go?

Oh, and I'm happy that we got 2.3 ported... gratz again. ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] jaw174:
it seems that the charge led is not lighting up, but it will charge. look at the battery icon or the charge indicator on lock screen.

Logcat from fresh install.
[Droid Eris Android Development] crax0r:
Hey kaos, I got a few weeks off of school... got any time for me to help? Just a friendly question.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Tuckface1:
my experience with this rom has been great since the first version, until v5, it takes forever to boot up and if i even get it to boot, it only stays booted up for about 30 or 45 seconds until it crashes and reboots... Not sure what happened with this one kaos, cant wait for v6 bug fixes :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] daveseris:
Flashed V 4 fresh, then V 5 over. Boot went fine. After installing set CPU, it moves nicely with the notable exception of the keyboard.
[Droid Eris Android Development] punk.kaos:
Awesome, thanks Chevelle that helps. :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] sk842018:
No luck with V5 fir me neither boots up than just keeps rebooting every min or so
[Droid Eris Android Development] playpolo4life:
gave it another go and same result. let it do its thing for about 30 mins and still a black screen.
[Droid Eris Android Development] koamalu:
As far as I can remember, we didn't have this much useability in froyo untill about v12 or so. Great job kaos!!!
[Droid Eris Android Development] SicNside:
You are correct, it was somewhere around there. This has developed faster so far. Punk.Kaos is a machine
[Droid Eris Android Development] killakrishook3r:
its almost as if hes evolving, growing harder better faster stronger

[Droid Eris Android Development] Mortakai:

[Droid Eris Android Development] wildfirewolf:
@Mortakai: the technology being a cybernetic implant in his head that makes him a superior Android developer? Yes, I do believe you're right :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] suppliesidejesus:
I miss your work after moving to the Fascinate. Looks good so far! I may have to turn my Eris on and flash this so I can play around with GB, haha.

Sent from my Fascinate using the XDA app
[Droid Eris Android Development] punk.kaos:
Those Fascinate guys are pushing pretty hard to get me in their camp :P

Who knows, maybe you'll see some Kaos roms for the Fascinate sometime...
[Droid Eris Android Development] blklab49:
I was wondering if there is an easy process of booting between KF and KG roms. Currently, backed up KF, wiped and flashed KG. Played with KG for a while and then wiped KG and restored KF. I am relatively new at this but learning from all the posts and feedback. I also looked at PK's thread for dual booting but seems a bit complicated. Any insights? Thanks.
[Droid Eris Android Development] lp4261:
If you're new this is probably your best option. there is the dual rom by Team ADX, but that's a 2.1 sense rom and a froyo rom. I haven't tried kaos' dual boot method yet, so I can't say much about it, but Kaos does do great work. I'd probably just stick to doing a nand and restoring. It may take a little longer, but it is easy.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tombepa:
That would be awesome! I have this fascinate on my work line and this eris on my personal line. That could be total Kaos! Lol!
[Droid Eris Android Development] devistator18:
That would be awesome, your roms are some of the best for the eris!
[Droid Eris Android Development] mdparent:
I am due for upgrade in couple of months and was looking at that one to get. That would be so awesome if we all slowly switch over to this device.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jayzeroeee:
Yeah, it's weird, back when I got my Eris I never would have suspected a forum community to be a leading factor in what phone I get next. I like the Droid X but the community over there isn't nearly as good as the Eris.
[Droid Eris Android Development] albert310:
I also had issues getting v5 to boot after a fresh wipe/install. I ended up trying v4 and it worked right away. After a couple hours, I decided to try to flash v5 over v4 and it booted right away and worked perfectly.
[Droid Eris Android Development] teggy6:
yea, i have always wondered why the eris has such a strong development backing in the forums im scared to switch phone and get one with no following...
[Droid Eris Android Development] Weudel:
Come to the Continuum... We've got no one...
[Droid Eris Android Development] punk.kaos:
Like I always say, if someone gets me a device, I'll dev for it, if not it'll be whatever I like when upgrade time comes :p
[Droid Eris Android Development] Familyguy1:
Dang, now I feel like I have to wait to upgrade my phone just to see what you get :p :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] lp4261:
I wonder when upgrade time is for Kaos....I'm due in march.
[Droid Eris Android Development] C.Hatfield:
.... exactly what I want ask .... so PK, what'll be ?

You -can- see into the future of smartphone development, riiight ?! I wouldn't be surprised considering you must be, what, 1/2 ... 3/4 Android by now :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] ottenjr81:
Hey guys, learn more about punk.kaos in my developers soapbox article. :D

http://radioandroid.net/developer-soapbox/weekly-developer-soapbox-punk-kaos/#more-1284
[Droid Eris Android Development] rougegoat:
I flashed v5 directly over KFv39 with no wipes, and after that point I could not install any applications through the market. Installed apps(from KF) were recognized but not usable, or removable for that matter. Just figured I'd let you know. I'll try later today with a full wipe and see if it's just not working 'cause of installing it right over KF.

Contacts, call log, and texts all went through perfectly though. Same with accounts set up and whathaveyou.

(yay nandroid!)
[Droid Eris Android Development] woofers02:
Was about to get mad for spamming, but that was actually a decent read.
[Droid Eris Android Development] libraryclg:
I agree, that was a great read indeed.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Mortakai:
yeah.. here's to Gingerbread :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] tombepa:
I am still kinda bummed I cant play with v5. I still cant get it to boot. :(
[Droid Eris Android Development] Mortakai:
I'm going to test out v4 and 5 tonight.. im really curious as to what this thing can do!
[Droid Eris Android Development] backroaddrifter:
+1, awe I remember the good ol days of my HTC Vogue lol flashing phones like the old days would blow most new comers minds :) so when kaos gets a new phone ill be right along with him just like before! Much love for the man! On another note v39 is running great ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] nomorefear:
Yeah I'm going to follow kp as well. We will salivate at what he chooses to make better next.
[Droid Eris Android Development] onedementedsmurf:
Ahh it's play time :) Thanks for all you hard work PK
[Droid Eris Android Development] Jam7516:
Ohhh yeah I am so following him too he is the best
[Droid Eris Android Development] jaebond:
Agreed! I'm just discovering all of this stuff, but I'm already hooked and don't think I could handle a phone without his development!
[Droid Eris Android Development] stiltzkin:
I too started out with the Vogue, back when Verizon had yet to release Android phones (and really any phones with WiFi, for that matter). That was a fantastic dev community as well - booting Cupcake from WinMo 6.1 was, I have to say, quite liberating. But I digress ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] udz2002:
Is anyone else having trouble with the keyboard? I flashed v5 over v4. Some of the keys are acting like I am holding them down and choosing the first alternative option, ex "á" instead of "a". It's not consistent either, if I try a couple times it usually works fine. Kind of frustrating lol.
[Droid Eris Android Development] pioneersohpioneers:
This happened to me. The backspace was super touchy, as well. Sometimes it'd erase one letter, sometimes two.

GB was just too annoying to use, so I went to v39. Way fun to poke around though, great job Kaos. I'm lookin' forward for a polished GB!
[Droid Eris Android Development] homer169:
Flash version 4 and boot. Then flash version 5 without wiping and it should boot with no problem.
[Droid Eris Android Development] BeinDroid:
Just confirming what has been said in case any new users don't understand...

You cannot flash v5 fresh over KaosFroyo v39 for example like you could with v3 or v4.

First, flash v4 over your phone and then boot. Then go ahead and flash v5.
[Droid Eris Android Development] sjdannen:
Same thing for me. I started by using Better Keyboard because I flashed over Tazz's Vanilla v20, (because wipe and direct to Gingerbread v5 didn't work), and it was super slow. I changed to the Gingerbread keyboard cuz I heard it was a good KB and I experienced the same thing. Had to respond to an email and it took forever as I had to keep making corrections. Played around with GB for a few hours, but the speed was too slow for me to use for anything other than testing. Looking good so far and I am anxious to see if there is a release that will run as smooth on the Eris as KaosFroyo.
[Droid Eris Android Development] udz2002:
Ya, I had it running pretty smooth with CPU Boost and disabling animations. But this whole keyboard thing is driving me nuts. Going back to KF v39.
[Droid Eris Android Development] rougegoat:
no...you can. It works just fine, and boots with no issues. The problems I was having(not being able to install/uninstall apps) was because they were on my SD card, but it didn't recognize them fully since they were from KF. It recognized them enough to know they were installed, but not enough to open them. (edit starts here) I was trying to reinstall them to fix the issue, and it was failing. The phone detected the same version was on it as it was trying to install over it, so the install failed. beyond that, though, installs, general running, etc has been on par with a wipe install.(/edit)

Apps I didn't have installed on KF before the flash installed and worked fine. Everything else worked fine for that matter. It was just the apps that I had installed on my SD card that were giving issues.(edit2) I spoke to soon. Apparently it's about 30/70 as to which apps install, and I'm not entirely sure what differentiates between good ones and bad ones. Most don't install, giving "Unknown error - 12".(/edit2)
[Droid Eris Android Development] killakrishook3r:
easiest way to back up apps is to use astro or titanium while on kaosfroyo and then when you install KGB find astro in market and use it to restore your apps
[Droid Eris Android Development] izzaeroth:
GB keyboard

I use the GB keyboard with a froyo rom and notice the keys seem to "stick" sometimes. I tried an alt GB keyboard and noticed the same thing on it as well.
[Droid Eris Android Development] suppliesidejesus:
Oh lord. The initials for this ROM are KGB. That is awesome.

KGB WILL FIND YOU!
[Droid Eris Android Development] bigrat:
Tried flashing this today. Was on v39 KF, did dalvik wipe/factory reset, then flashed.

I get to a black screen that occasionally I feel the vibrate function work. the backlight is on, but nobody's home. waited for quite a while, well over 10 minutes.

I'm back in recovery and going to re-flash to v39 now.
[Droid Eris Android Development] bigrat:
also: dear nandroid backup: I love you.
[Droid Eris Android Development] acyd:
Just wanted to throw it out there for those having stuck keyboard key issues - turning off "popup on keypress" option in the settings makes it pretty much normally usable with practically no lag.
[Droid Eris Android Development] rougegoat:
As has been stated several times, you can't just flash straight to v5. You have to flash v4 and then flash v5 over it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] poppajonzz:
In Soviet Russia, this ROM flashes YOU!
[Droid Eris Android Development] tombepa:
My thanks to you and other people that told us to do this. It booted!
[Droid Eris Android Development] bigrat:
yes, but I thought I read later that people did flash straight to v5.
[Droid Eris Android Development] USSENTERNCC1701E:
V5 seems to only boot if flashed over a booting rom with out a full wipe, v4 is propably the cleanest rom you'll find, less likely to cause conflicts. I flashed over Froyolicious, didn't clear or wipe, no problems.
[Droid Eris Android Development] hilerc:
Same here... Been a black screen for 8 minutes now. If it doesn't boot soon I'll wipe and reflash
[Droid Eris Android Development] USSENTERNCC1701E:
Flash a ROM, probably any ROM, KGB v4 is known to work. Boot the ROM. Reboot into recovery, DO NOT WIPE, flash KGB v5, reboot, be patient.
[Droid Eris Android Development] homer169:
Also be aware that when you flash V5 the boot animation gets removed from the system/media folder for some reason, so there will not be any boot animation. This doesn't affect the rom in any way besides making the footprint a bit smaller. Just don't think that a blank screen after the skateboards means the phone isnt booting.
[Droid Eris Android Development] daveseris:
Kaos thanks for all your hard work this year. Watching your ROM work on XDA convinced me to root, and it has turned my Eris into a new phone many times. (Good thing since my renewal is Nov.). Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you.
[Droid Eris Android Development] dwrecording:
V4 then update to V5 did not boot after 50min.
[Droid Eris Android Development] USSENTERNCC1701E:
Did you boot v4 before flashing without wipe or reset?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Fodizzle1978:
Merry Christmas

Just wanted to say Merry Christmas (or insert your holiday here) to everyone and safe travels!!!:o
[Droid Eris Android Development] erispimp:
I flashed v4 booted then flashed v5 and it booted perfectly. Great rom :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] dylpickle05:
Is anyone having the rom v5 keep freezing and rebooting. Otherwise its good. Great work
[Droid Eris Android Development] USSENTERNCC1701E:
Yeah, it isn't stable yet, as is it's a toy :)

Just out of curiousity, are you able to notice any common denominator for the crashes?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Mortakai:
quick question: does anyone know where the file is for lockscreen gestures from KFv39? that, and would they work if i pushed them to my phone with KGBv4?

side question: where did the search thread tool go?
[Droid Eris Android Development] punk.kaos:
They're part of the framework. You can't just push them to this rom.
[Droid Eris Android Development] libraryclg:
I want to express the same sentiments, have a great and safe day!
[Droid Eris Android Development] dylpickle05:
Yea mostly when I open the browser or just start opening things
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
