I really liked Liberty 1.0, can't wait to try out 1.5! Although, when you say to wipe before installing from 1.0 to 1.5, does that mean reset back to stock 2.2 and then install 1.5? And if so, how can I backup my contacts so I don't lose them when I go from 1.0 to 1.5?
[Droid 2 Android Development] Quacker:
If you checked the box for Google backup service at the initial setup, your apps and contacts should be backed up to your Google account automatically. After a wipe, just enter your Google account info and the contacts should be automatically restored; if you go to "my apps" in Market, it will begin downloading those as well. You can also use an app like Titanium Backup if you don't want to rely on downloading and installing everything through the Market.

Another thing I usually backup manually are text messages. You can use a free app like SMS Backup/Restore to do this after a wipe.

I haven't tried Liberty yet, but you shouldn't need to SBF back to stock ROM if you're coming from an earlier version of Liberty. Just wipe data/cache through recovery like the instructions mention, and you should be fine. Some people actually go from ROMs like Fission to Liberty without SBFing, but others don't recommend it.
[Droid 2 Android Development] GeorgeHahn:
If you already have Liberty 1.0, you can backup your apps + data with liberty toolbox.

I'm having some trouble with the video player. I used the toolbox and installed the blur camera, cause I liked it better, but when I took a video and tried to play it, all it would say was "video player not installed"

Anyone else run into this problem?

GMail Sync Problem

I'm having a problem with GMail syncing and Liberty 1.5. I have ALL the sync options checked in both Gmail and Android settings.

When I receive a new email on Android and read/archive/delete it, the same email will still show up on my PC as unread.

It doesn't work both ways - meaning emails I delete on my PC will disappear from the GMail app (as intended). I switched over to Liberty last week from Fusion, and I definitely did not have this issue before the Liberty switch.

Any ideas?

Lock Screen

Is there anyway to integrate the Liquid Metal v1.2 lock screen into this ROM?

Video - http://www.xda-developers.com/announcements/android-rom-rundown-%E2%80%93-14-february-%E2%80%93-xda-tv/

[Droid 2 Android Development] gamenahd:
Anyway to include the Blur Email app in the Toolbox or update your app in the next build? Because I added my corporate email account (school exchange), and it doesn't have all the options the Blur app did, namely the move command. I can delete, reply, forward and stuff, but not move to a different folder.
[Droid 2 Android Development] jw4duke:
can you get blur widgets????
[Droid 2 Android Development] Thornfulless Rose:
if you want blur, use blur.
[Droid 2 Android Development] jw4duke:
what is a good blur rom???...haha sorry im new to the droid 2 had the droid eris and loved the devs
[Droid 2 Android Development] ScrumpyZebra:
Hey, I came from the eris too! I miss those devs, I think that phone has some of the best support out there. Too bad it was so slow =(
[Droid 2 Android Development] bladearronwey:
Try TranQ, or Apex, or maybe Rubix. I haven't used any of them, but I believe most of them have options to re-enable some or all of the blur features. Fused is a blur/aosp-like mix, but it hasn't been updated in some time. Fission and Liberty are essentially blur-less stock roms, so most blur features will not work on them
[Droid 2 Android Development] :
Haha, Been out of touch lately.

Sorry to be the n00b, but I have a few questions. Does it matter if I have renamed apps before I wipe? Also, does my firmware version matter, because I gave up on updating because of the previously mention renamed apps.

Thanks!
[Droid 2 Android Development] ljbaumer:
Hey I am thinking about porting my themes over from fission so that they also work for liberty and I don't really want to do that right before an update comes out.... Are there going to be any updates in the next week?

Thanks,

ljbaumer
[Droid 2 Android Development] xzillerationer:
What about Codec support? Any way to get native FLAC support? There are many songs I have (How to Train Your Dragon and Starcraft II mainly) that I would like to have in my library as opposed to using the folders that PowerAMP uses. Its kinda annoying.

I have tried just about everything and I cannot get this app to work with this version of this rom. It just sits at the start screen. Anyone else having problems with this app and this rom version? Keep in mind it worked fine on 1.0
[Droid 2 Android Development] PRBajista:
Compatible with R2D2??

I know that technically the R2D2 & the D2 are the same essentially but I just wanted to know if this rom can be installed on an R2D2. Im asking because my friend is interested in getting the r2d2 since its only 99 bucks from verizon & I wanted to be sure that I could root, bootstrap & flash this rom on an R2D2. Can any devs or senior members with droid experience chime in on this question? I also will take feedback from anyone who actually has attempted this on the R2D2. Thanks in advance.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Mr1070:
I have a R2D2 and flashes sbf 2.3.20 with no problems and bootstraped to liberty 1.5. I have also ported the original theme to the new sbf all no problems
[Droid 2 Android Development] gamenahd:
It works fine for me.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Concreteseller:
X Boot loop, Yours not mine...

VZW sent me a new X yesterday as a replacement and prior to installing Liberty 1.5 when I was clearing data and cache, I was convinced it had not cleared, I got stuck in a loop and did it again, but this time I clicked the the left menu (Hard Key) several times in what looked like the question after the question - Clear Cache? This time it clearly cleared, (pun intended). For anyone else having issues perhaps this is it, perhaps not. I had enough fun just getting it rooted, had to use z4root as nothing else worked. Pleanty of quirks, but seems solid just the same. Now when I reboot 1/2 the time I go to clockwork which is annoying but I am sure there is a very easy fix for that. Late start last night but this morning my phone was working great, miss the universal inbox like on stock but I imagine there is an app for that... Thanks Devs and community
[Droid 2 Android Development] JDunc:
Im pretty sure once you reboot open up Boostrap and give it SU permissions and then you can back out of it. That should fix it from rebooting into Clockwork
[Droid 2 Android Development] Thornfulless Rose:
Is anyone else's battery draining like crazy now? It's gotten worst since last time I posted about it.
[Droid 2 Android Development] wsfanatic:
I've noticed that too. It was great for a while, now it's only so-so.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Seanydizzley:
Must be a widespread thing. I'm still running 1.0 and my battery has been draining really fast.

Also when I hit about 30% or so it starts running real sluggish. Like it takes a long time to lock after I press lock, keyboard lag, and random reboots. Once it gets charged back up everything goes away though. Oh well. It's still awesome.
[Droid 2 Android Development] k-sider:
Got the ROM installed, no problem. Really nice. Messing around with it right now.

Main problem I'm having.... first couldn't figure out how to get Swype keyboard as the input method. Got to it finally by going to the Swype tutorial and then the dialog box came up and I could choose Swype as the keyboard (at least I think that is what happened. Didn't seem entirely straightforward.)

Now the microphone doesn't work for the speech to text, and neither does the Voice Dialer. Is there a setting that I am missing?

EDIT- seems that I fixed the problem, installed Voice Search from the Market, and then rebooted and now the Voice input seems to work fine.
[Droid 2 Android Development] RJT185:
Anytime my screen goes asleep and I try to press the power button to wake it up right away my screen turns one at a ridiculously low brightness. It stays unresponsive for a little while then it falls back asleep at which point a press of the power button will bring it back to normal. It's been happening now almost every time I don't let it stay asleep for a few seconds before trying to wake it up.

Anyone else have this problem?
[Droid 2 Android Development] PRBajista:
Anyone have any answers on this question I posted a while ago? :confused:
[Droid 2 Android Development] Sighte:
That's been happening to me some as well. It got a little less consistent for a while, I don't know what I did though.
[Droid 2 Android Development] bladearronwey:
I see this behavior too, though infrequently. I chalk it up to overclock settings, but generally about once a week or so I'll shut off the screen, and when I go to turn it back on I can make out the sliders but it's non-responsive. I generally just pull the battery at that point and it works just fine again for a while
[Droid 2 Android Development] tychastain:
so i had Liberty 1.0 and only had a few problems with it. When I upgraded to 1.5, all the issues I had before were gone. But in the last few weeks, I've had a problem where I'll receive a call and answer it and I can't hear the caller, and the caller can't hear me. the only way to fix this is to reboot the phone. anyone else having this problem?
[Droid 2 Android Development] jayzeroeee:
I had that problem once, but not again since.

I've also noticed my phone just generally freezing up occasionally, and requiring a battery pull to fix it.
[Droid 2 Android Development] xzillerationer:
This is getting ridiculous. I all of a sudden can't receive text messages. It's really annoying. I've wiped and reflashed 4 or 5 times. Until this is fixed, I'm switching to another ROM. This was my favorite.
[Droid 2 Android Development] droidfanatic:
I had similar issues, now Im back to Fission 2.6.1
[Droid 2 Android Development] JeezyMT3G:
Roxkin this ROM no issues what's so ever using it with honeycomb theme

Love it!!
[Droid 2 Android Development] kevkelsar:
I've been having an issue. I'm running the latest version of Liberty and I'm using the Times font, the Gingerbread theme, and run Launcher Pro. Whenever I plug in my USB cable to any computer and choose to access the my SD card, my phone reboots. When it's done rebooting it is connected as USB, but it's a bit annoying going through a while reboot every time I want to access my SD card.

Any ideas on a reason why this is happening?
[Droid 2 Android Development] kevkelsar:
In addition, some of my app icons on my home screens have changed to the default Android icon.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Thornfulless Rose:
how do we make the gmail notifcation icon gingerbread again? there was an update that changed it.
[Droid 2 Android Development] gamenahd:
This just happened to me as well. I'll then try to call the person back but I hear no dial tone or anything. The reboot usually fixes the problem, but it's such a hassle when trying to call someone.
[Droid 2 Android Development] cspanick:
Ditto yesterday was on a phone call and it randomly shut off, quite annoying.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Thornfulless Rose:
Anyone know a way to change the swype color? I tried getting blue back by deleteing swype and installing the origional d2 swype. the keyboard is white now, but the trace color is still like orange which looks even weirder. How do i change the color?

thanks in advance
[Droid 2 Android Development] luca108:
just flashed this rom after using fission, and im loving it so far. i have everything set up perfectly to my liking but there is 1 minor problem... whenever i click on 'Notification Sounds' in either the Messaging app or SMSpopup, I get a force-close. the droid sound itself still plays fine, but I cant change it to anything else. any suggestions?

edit: also happens when i try to change phone ringtone, and also happens when i go into menu > settings > sound and try to change it. help!
[Droid 2 Android Development] luca108:
coming from a severely outdated droid eris to a droid 2, i thought the community would be larger and more active with this phone. but 2-3 days and not a single response...?

cant figure out why im getting these force closes, so oh well, back to fission.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Seanydizzley:
I haven't noticed these issues? Perhaps you should reflash the ROM and see if this continues? If so I'd recommend a SBF.

It's a shocker coming from the Eris to here isn't it? Lol. I was unwillingly upgraded to the D2. Fortunately the ROMs that are available are all very stable and all certain perks to them. Liberty is my favorite thus far though.
[Droid 2 Android Development] primarilydna:
Any news on updates??.... I freaking love this rom... just a few random reboots/freezes.
[Droid 2 Android Development] luca108:
friend works at verizon, so i got this as a replacement for my eris for free and still have my upgrade coming in november so this will only be temporary anyways haha. i would take this phones speed and a limited amount of roms over a ton of CM roms and the sluggish speed of the eris though. even overclocked to 806mhz the phone was so slowwww.

but yeah i was planning on going back to fission but i liked some of the features of the liberty toolbox so i reinstalled and everything works fine now. not sure what the deal was, but thanks for the response.
[Droid 2 Android Development] kevkelsar:
I do have a possible suggestion for future updates. Although I don't know how possible it would be. Make an option to set a different wallpaper for your lockscreen than what you have as your main wallpaper. I know the Sense UI does that, but haven't seen it implemented anywhere else.
[Droid 2 Android Development] lukesdiesel:
Mine continues to Force Close when I select Liberty Settings
[Droid 2 Android Development] Thornfulless Rose:
Why wasnt the Gingerbread music used? I mean we could have always when to the market and gotten music mod, but i prefer stock music player. How do i get the stock gingerbread music player?

Still a great rom though.
[Droid 2 Android Development] sniffs:
Install the Liberty Toolbox from the market.. this fixes it.
[Droid 2 Android Development] sniffs:
Anyone else notice that the Market isn't updating to the new version?

also, I cannot get Google Voice to update.. "Package not signed correctly"
[Droid 2 Android Development] mad96:
i sbf my d2 and formatted my sd card and now im runnin liberty 1.5. but when i try to flash a theme from the toolbox it says bad file on every one. ive reflashed a few times but still a no go... please any ideas i would love to keep this rom its pretty awesome. thanks
[Droid 2 Android Development] rjstargel:
I'm actually using the honeycomb music player. I am not sure of the exact url I found and the app won't let me upload the apk file but a simple google search should find it easily. Simply installing the apk and deleting the original music apk from system/apps works fine.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Thornfulless Rose:
The thing is I do other things when I listen to music, and when I use the 3.0 player, the song skips and gets all choppy when I open other apps. Plus theres something wrong with the music notification. It doesnt show the music info until you pause and unpause the song. Thats why I stopped using the honeycomb music player. But its ok, Ive come to like music mod now :) thanks though.
[Droid 2 Android Development] nickdahat:
I'm getting the same thing.. and it won't let me uninstall it either to try and reinstall it? Any idea why it wouldn't let me uninstall it?
[Droid 2 Android Development] primarilydna:
you have to delete google voice via liberty toolbox -> remove apps(show all) and then disable auto backup once restarted or delete google voice.apk from liberty backup. Once done reinstall from market and you're set.
[Droid 2 Android Development] noldevin:
Anyone else having an issue getting their camera to focus after 1.5?

I tried an sbf and had some trouble getting it to focus on stock, then rebooted and it worked fine.

Then I went and re-flashed liberty and it won't focus and I get a red box instead of green. It's just permanently blurry :(

It could just be that my camera is going and only works sporadically, but I figured I'd see if anyone else was having the issue before I get a new phone.
[Droid 2 Android Development] caitstoppable:
I just installed this ROM and I reinstalled launcherpro plus, but launcher pro won't work. What am I doing wrong?
[Droid 2 Android Development] wsfanatic:
I had a problem with the autofocus and had to get a replacement. SBFing didn't do anything to fix the problem.
[Droid 2 Android Development] noldevin:
That's disappointing. I wonder if they'll let me switch to the X. I never use the keyboard and a bigger screen would be nice.
[Droid 2 Android Development] wsfanatic:
While I didn't ask about getting a DX (because I do use the keyboard) the phone with the defective autofocus was my 4th replacement. IIRC, Verizon discontinued their multi-FRU swap program. It used to be if you had 3 replacements within 90 days, you could switch to a different but comparable model, but I'm almost positive this is no longer the policy.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Thornfulless Rose:
yea its not the policy anymore. most reps with tell you that. but some will still do you the favor.
[Droid 2 Android Development] mad96:
I've flashed this rom three times from three diff downloads and the rom runs great but every theme from the toolbox I try gives me a (bad file) in recovery, I've even got the toolbox from the market. Is there anthing I could try?
[Droid 2 Android Development] noldevin:
Try going into the liberty folder on your sdcard and erasing the downloaded theme files. That should force the toolbox to download a fresh (and hopefully working) copy of the themes.
[Droid 2 Android Development] mad96:
thanks for the response you guys are the first on rom supp that its fukin awesome , any rom . bye som chance this dont work is there a linnk i can find the tool box themes and flash em thru clockwrk, i no that works. thanks for you time and info you guys rock

Liberty is the best ROM I've used since I got my D2 back in October (I've had Fission, GummyJar and Apex). Despite the locked bootloader, our dev community is still thriving.

My only issue now with Liberty is updating apps like Google Voice, File Manager and the Market app. Sure we can follow the instructions that gdfnr123 provided, but a future version of the ROM should correct this issue. Just my two cents! Thank you!

Built-in Keyboard

Anyone knows how to activate the word prediction/correction using the built-in Keyboard? I can see it when I use the touch screen keyboard but not when I slide the Keyboard on Droid 2.

I am not a good speller, so it helps me a lot! =p

Thanks guys!
[Droid 2 Android Development] Atamagaokashii:
You need to install the blur keyboard from inside the toolbox.
[Droid 2 Android Development] primarilydna:
I usually run into problems with the brightness like when i slide out the keypad the screen turns bright and when i close the keypad the brightness becomes dim, bright vice versa i dont think there is any problem with my phone though had to reinstall the rom, wipe everything from stock then and only the keyboard and screen brightness match.

This is very frustrating any thoughts?

[Droid 2 Android Development] foxkat:
Having the same problem installing themes and am stuck in Liberty theme. In my Liberty folder, there are two subfolders, downloads and install_complete. Both folders are empty. There is a readme as well.

Also, my boot animation is simply a yellow rectangle with a white swipe running across, tried to change animation to Liberty but it reboots to clockwork recovery every time and then boots back to yellow rectangle animation. Also same problem when rebooting manually.

Finally, immediately upon booting, I get FC on Market and Email.

Any suggestions?

Would anyone happen to have the Gingerbread theme for Liberty 1.5? It wont download from the toolbox.
[Droid 2 Android Development] kiwilit43:
I'm pretty sure you guys are gonna tell me to sbf, but I figured I'd ask...

Running rooted 2.3.3 and I'm fed up with the bugs and inconsistency. If I want to run Liberty can I just wipe everything and install or do I need to sbf?

Only reason I really ask is because RSD never seems to work for me with Windows 7. I always have to try and borrow a friends computer with XP, which is a hassle.
[Droid 2 Android Development] wsfanatic:
You must SBF to go back to Liberty.
[Droid 2 Android Development] noldevin:
You can recover your phone with an SBF, there should be a guide or two in this forum.
