Worked like a charm. Very very easy procedure.. I was so freaked out before I decided to try it. I was holding my breath for the whole process lol. I was so relieved when my phone went past the moto logo screen...

I am loving the speed of the phone. Just like angdroid pointed out, I don't see any huge improvement in battery life... But may be 1 hour more than what I used to get earlier for similar usage.. No qualms though. Am happy with the results of my adventure.. Many thanks to Angdroid for the beautiful (I know how soothing these thanks are to you. But honestly. I really am very thankful for the beautiful ROM)
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] Builedung:
Oops i installed all 2 of them, is that ok?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] VinhNhi:
I did the same thing, and I lost 60% of battery after 1 night. Do not know what to do right now? Should I wipe full and reflash?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
Does it work on the Milestone 2?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
No does not...

Finally found my thread :D
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
Some new themes...check it out on FRM :D
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] htcang:
Hi Angdroid,

I see 3 ROMs in FRM, what is the 3rd one Droid Global ? Is it the original ROM from Verizon ?

btw, can I download and install all the themes at the same time ? I really want to see what are they look like

Thanks,
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rusty815:
Any chance we can the gingerbread theme with transitions with the stock white bar? Goes good with my white d2g :)
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] smrivera1:
Just flashed this rom and love it! Two questions though...

First, I loved how the stock dialer auto completed as I was dialing. Is there a way to add this to the dialer within the rom? Or was that a blur feature?

Second, is there a way to add more home screens without using Adw or Launcher Pro? Seems like default is 5 but I like to have 7. Thanks!
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
If I find the time I will do it, if you have donated then email me with request...
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
Blur feature and coming in Fused series of ROMs
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
You can download all themes at once but have to install one at a time. The 3rd ROM is OEM ROM with root, deodex and busybox but all else stock.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] jupiterssj4:
Just wondering how to enable the showing battery percentage in the battery icon. Thanks!

I also don't see Restart in the power menu (when you hold the power button)

Droid 2 Global 2.4.3, no add ons
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rogerdugans:
New owner of a D2G and happily rooted and disgusted with blur junk.

Two questions:

a) Is a version of this that supports SIM cards expected? It doesn't look like the current one does from the first post.

2) Since I won't often need to use the global aspects of the phone, is there likely to be any problem with backing up and flashing/re-flashing between non-sim rom and the stock if I need to? I have bounced back and forth with my Droid more than a few times without problems.

I am new to the D2G but been using a Droid since LAST december sometime- not completely new to the topic, just this phone.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
Sim add on will be in the next day or two, I have it working and just figuring out how to handle the USA GSM lock service I will be providing too...
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] mrapollinax:
By SIM support you mean SIM support for non-VzW installed/activated SIMs? Or all SIM support? I actually DO use the Global aspect quite a bit and would like to not discover I do not have service while in another country.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] smrivera1:
ADW Launcher and Fission

I just started having an issue where, when I unlock my screen, ADW Launcher shows my homescreen previews rather than my default screen. I then have to tap on the screen I want in order to open it. I flashed my phone to Fission a few days ago and ADW wasn't doing this at that point...not sure if I accidentally changed a setting somewhere, but I can't figure it out. I switched my launcher to Launcher Pro and it is doing the same thing. Has anyone else had a similar issue using both ADW/Launcher Pro and Fission together?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] botnryan:
in adw/launcher pro settings make sure the home button setting is to anything but "sense like previews" ive had that problem before too.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] karthikmurs:
How can I check if stagefright is enabled by default? Is it just the build.prop file or is it enabled by default in Fission ROM? I have the latest ROm installed through FRM...
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rusty815:
Stagefright is not enabled by default in fission, you have to go into build.prop to enable it. Also, if you have the droid overclock app by jrummy, it has a function to enable and disable stagefright
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rogerdugans:
Just posting that I have gone and installed Fission and already like the D2G better.

Amazing how much the blur crap damaged the phones usability for me.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] botnryan:
ive found a bug of sorts. dont know if its actually fission rom specific or not but...

I have a different ringtone set for when my gf calls me and sometimes it will ring that ringtone and sometimes it will ring the default phone ringtone i have set. it seems to be if i havent received a phone call in a while it rings default. if she calls me then loses signal (shes on at&t lol) and then calls me right back, it rings correctly.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] karthikmurs:
Ah.. I meet you again.. Thanks.. I thought that was the case.. Just wanted to doubly sure. Btw, does it give you any noticeable performance boost apart from quadrant score?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rusty815:
youtube videos are a lot smoother, but besides that nothing has changed, like i said before on your other post, there is the one bug where it doesnt let you play videos that youve recorded, but you can play other videos on your phone easy.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] jupiterssj4:
Just wanted to check on this? Does the battery % show for others and if so, how do you enable it and second, I don't show a restart in the power menu.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rusty815:
I'm having the problem where I can't install market themes as mentioned in the droid 2 thread
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rusty815:
Market themes work now, great job ang :)
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] karthikmurs:
Guys.... I screwed up.. Everything was fine.. Until a few minutes ago, I tried to install the Droid Global ROm from the FRM (the default one).. I did a clean wipe (not sure if this was required.. But to be safe, I did it).. Now, the Droid Global ROM was installedand even setting up google account was done. But afterwards, it is stuck at the backup assistant; at the screen where it says "Connecting with server. Please wait". I know phone is working because, I can receive calls, read mails.. But just that when I click on Home button, it takes me to the frozen screen..

(But long pressing of home screen will allow me to go the the back up assistant program where it asks for different options to set up the back up. Like the recurrance, PIN etc.) Essentially, backup assistant is the only thing I can see right now..

Please let me know (as soon as you can) what I need to do to fix this up! Thanks..
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] botnryan:
restart the phone?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] karthikmurs:
Yup! Three times... Same thing.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] thekidmoon:
Are you using the Fission rom or the the original rom with root deodex and busybox?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] karthikmurs:
The original Rom with deodex and busybox. I just downloaded it and added it to install queue and installed it while wiping the data and cache.

PS: Before I did this gimmick, I had Fission ROM installed with Black Gingerbread theme..
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rusty815:
Did you make a backup before installing? If so try to restore the backup
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] karthikmurs:
I am very new to this, so, could you please let me know how to do that? Even a link to a page or a thread in this forum is good. I could search but then, I'd have to ask you again if the steps are correct. It will be of great help if you let me in on how to do that. I don;t even know how to boot into recovery..

Also, I have another concern.. The backup which I have is from the time when I first installed Fission ROM.. So the backup might actually contain the Original factory files instead of the FIssion'ed data.. Will that be a problem in any case? I purposefully didn't take a back up as I wasn;t sure if the original backup will be over-written or not and I didn want to loose the original backup..
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rusty815:
If you had bootstrap installed, which you should if you installed fission, then to make a backup you use bootstrap to boot into recovery, then in recovery there's an option for "backup and restore" you use that to make a backup, and if you made a backup before, then you use the restore option if you want to revert back.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] karthikmurs:
Awesome.. I was figuring out a way to start the app as I have no access to any other screen other than the one I am struck on.. Luckily, the voice commands was installed when I installed Droid global ROm.. now I am restoring.. Fingers crossed.. Thanks again mate.. I owe you one.. I will cump this thread if I get struck again.. But imo, it should be all good now..
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] karthikmurs:
Done and all is well.. Thanks all for helping me out..

Touchdown with 2.4.3

Hi is anyone able to get touchdown or exchange email working with this rom? I love the rom, but the native one always says can't connect to server and touchdown gives http 403 error. I can login manualy to my corp site using webmail. Thanks in advance for any help :).
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
Is there any error with the native app or just states that it can not connect to server?

Wanna try the attached file and see if it helps. Just install through bootstrap recovery.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] droidfanatic:
Just tried still same exception from both...there are no other visible errors that get displayed.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
What version of Exchange is your server using? Anyway you can create an account for me on it so I can test it too?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] droidfanatic:
I think its the latest ver...unfortunately I cannot a test accnt.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
Can you try your gmail through exchange. That works for me and I want to see if it works for you so then we know if it is an issue with your ROM or ROM having issues with your exchange servers.

Google exchage info is

name = full email

server m.google.com
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] droidfanatic:
Gmail worked fine...do you think the rom version is being validated and thus not allowing it to sync?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] droidfanatic:
Angroid, i just reflashed 2.4.3 and added the email policy and downloaded touchdown. Everything went through without errors. Strange but Im glad its all working now :). Thanks again for helping in troubleshooting! Will be donating shortly!
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
Nice glad it helped! I will post it on FRM soon.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
Some steps to improve battery life...

I was about to give up on the D2G as a daily user since the battery life I was getting was much worse than the D2. I somehow managed to greatly improve the battery life.

I did the next 3 things at the same time so I am sure some helped more than others.

Install the SIM card fix from FRM

Set radio to CMDA/EvDo Auto

Used SetCPU to set clock at 1GHz

Then I "conditioned" my battery with the following steps

Charged phone completely with outlet, not usb

Wiped battery stats in recovery

Let battery drain all the way down till phone powered off

Fully recharged battery.

My batttery life has been greatly improved since then and now I feel more comfortable using the D2G has daily phone :D
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] RWALEY:
So, does Fission support SIM cards now? I really would like to try it out but I am a full time GSM user with the D2G.

By the way, thanks so much for your continued development!
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rusty815:
Yeah, sims should work now, I haven't tested it but I'm sure it works
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] alex695:
I've been running this rom since the day it was re-released and I've had no issues at all.

Battery life went up and the phone is much quicker. The rooting process was a little difficult, but that was partly our fault. We could do it again in 10 mins if we had all of our ducks in a row.

Thanks for the release, it was well worth it !
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] RWALEY:
What is the easiest way to revert to stock ROM in case it does not work properly?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
My GPS doesn't work. Looking in the location options, it looks like the A-GPS stuff is gone. Is there a way to get that back?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] leobg:
I guess either nandroid backup made pre-installation or flash full SBF.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] smrivera1:
Overclock Droid 2 Global

The ROM description says it is overclock ready out of the box. What is the max speed that is recommended? Also, will JRummy's Droid 2 OC app work to overclock the D2G? Thanks!
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
Had some downtime at work so I reflashed this and my GPS still does not work. To be sure, I went outside and tried it and nothing.

Can anyone else confirm if GPS works or not?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] ANDY12001:
hi Android,

Thank you for excellent rom.

If you can add crystal talk setting,it would be marvelous:D

andy
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
I fixed my issue. I had to clear the Maps cache data.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] RWALEY:
Just flashed to Fission and it has been working great so far. Donation is certainly on the way!

One thing I noticed is Wi-Fi is shutting off when the phone sleeps, even though I went to settings and told it to never shut off. Anyone else having this issue?

Also, GPS is working on my D2G. I just ran location after flashing, no issues.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] botnryan:

[Droid 2 Global Android Development] karthikmurs:
The phone dialer is not showing the history(the auto complete thingie). Is this the same for everyone?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] leobg:
Yes - it is because Fission uses stock android dialer, not Motorola modified one.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] leobg:
AngDroid, any plans for "Fused" rom soon?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] papi92:

[Droid 2 Global Android Development] davezaff:
any Idea when 2.5.5 will be released for the D2G? Keep up the great work.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] botnryan:
in the d2 thread it says DX roms will be released later tonight and then d2g.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
What is the appropriate method of updating? Do we need to backup with Titanium Backup first, or can we just choose the upgrade from FRM?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] botnryan:
just upgrade form FRM is what ive always done.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
Cool thanks. I did just upgrade to the gingerbread theme from the Black-Styled theme and the reboot took forever. Is there anything special I need to do if I'm switching between themes?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] botnryan:
reboots after theme installs generally do take a lonnnggg time, its normal.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
2.5.5 is a couple of days away. Lots of work to totally redo framework. Not a simple port like the d2 to dx. With those devices the framework can be shared and it is not the case with the D2G...
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
So it's a safe assumption that the regular Droid 2 roms aren't compatible with the D2G?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] droidfanatic:
Take your tine..2.4.3 is great...
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rip_xoid:
I think I am in love with Team Defuses ROMs they have inspired me to learn to code android. Keep up the good work.

How do you make contacts show up with Facebook profile pics like the stock settings? Anyone know how to do this, seems like you cant add a Facebook account under the accounts setting.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] shades228:
If you've already signed into facebook on your phone go into settings and then you can choose what to synch.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] Vexorg:
Do you mean with a facebook app or through a browser?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] shades228:
app then click on the F on the top left and then click on menu-preferences-synch
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] Vexorg:
Thanks shade228

Another thing, how come my lock screen isnt curved like the one in the screens ? I installed 2.4.3 on my d2g, doesn't that version have it?

I also dragged the weather widget into the trash can and I can't seem to get it back it doesn't show up on the widget list
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] plnghiepla:
Fission 2.5.7 is only for Droid2 and DroidX. No update is available for D2G
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] M3TR1C:
So am i gonna be able to update using the rom manager from 2.4.3 to 2.4.7 and all i need to do is download it then go to recovery and run the .zip file? No wipe or anything? Will it show up on FRM when its available? Sry for the quick questions. ^_^
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] walter79:
Where can i download the full img of 2.4.3?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] ab325:
i am new to the android and rom scene and have a few questions just to clarify. i have read a bit about what to do, but still just want to be extra sure that the steps im following are correct.

1. create backup with clockworkmod backup recovery

2. install koush boot loader

3. install frm

4. install the fission rom

i have a droid 2 global, so should i skip the 2nd step? i dont see the koush bootstrap recovery for droid 2 global. only see if for droid2. also, when i attempt to create a rom backup using clockworkmod, the phone resets, but i dont see any backup rom files anywhere. should i try making a backup using somethine else? i have also made a backup using titanium backup, so will that be enough to get my apps/texts/etc to load up with fission?

to make sure.... sim cards work in the latest build, correct? i am using this phone in europe at the moment.

what if this doesnt work out for me? will i be able to revert to my backup fairly easily? i dont want to brick my phone, since i wont be home for another month or so, and my warranty will probably have expired by then.

thanks for any help!
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] foobarbecue:
Defy?

Do any of the Fission operating system versions work on the Motorola Defy?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] :
http://www.teamdefuse.com/roms/install-instructions-and-downloads/

DO download the Koush bootstrapper. It costs $2.00, however. I did it on my Droid 2 Global and it worked successfully.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] walter79:
2.5.7 works but no gsm signal. maybe droid2 global build work
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] ab325:
even though its for droid 2?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] Vexorg:
Yup. I used it for my d2g and everything worked fine.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] papi92:
Can I use droid 2 roms and not those the features of the rom. Idc bout global features
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] botnryan:
no! dont flash a d2 rom...you'll brick it.
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] Vexorg:
I dragged the weather widget into the trash how do I get it back? Doesn't show up in Widgets list
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rusty815:
Hate to sound like I'm rushing anything, but when is the new version of fission rolling out to our d2g's?
[Droid 2 Global Android Development] shaddix2:
Is it possible to make this thing stop vibrating on notifications. Also is there some way to make it not vibrate when I use the touch sensitive buttons on the front? Or is there also some way to make it not vibrate when I unlock it ._.;;;;;;;;;;;;??

[Droid 2 Global Android Development] rodi1981:
Thank you

I believe you comment on botnryan post.

Thank you and my previous comment is for that guy and is not how I really think.

You know what I mean:)

I think that is just very rude what he write.

Sorry I did not know this will look like that.

So much green!

Users who get the new update, which is virtually every Android phone out there will be able to quickly flip through the carousel to view promoted applications and immediately go to the download page for the application they want.

They’ll now also be able to find Widgets and Live Wallpapers thanks to a dedicated section while Related content, which makes it easier for users to quickly find apps of similar interest. Seems you can’t have enough weather apps.

To streamline the browse-to-purchase experience, users can now access all the information about an application on a single page without the need to navigate across different tabs.

Other new elements is a reduction in the time you can request a refund (15 minutes) and a stronger focus on allowing games developers the chance to make better games with more graphics support and the ability to make larger apps.

“With this release, we aimed to deliver features that are most requested by users and developers. However, we’re not done yet,” says Chu. “We plan to continue to rapidly enhance Android Market for both users and developers and make it the best content distribution service for the Android ecosystem.”
