Lol thanks for understanding. Does anyone know if the immunity from grandfathered plans will work from a 3g to 4g conversation? I hope that after July 7 we'll still be able to do that without facing tiered plans...
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
That's the rumor..if not then I'm screwed when 3g is gone...btw I love my incredible 2...perfect size..and we just got root :-)
[Droid Eris Android Development] ILikeBubbles:
Yeah totally. My boyfriend might be able to make it going from a dx to a TB but I wont touch any phones in vzws current lineup which means if that's true I've potentially screwed my whole family plan of 5 lines...smart of them to keep the bionic from releasing until after this little change goes down... either get the sexy TB with ****ty battery, the poopy Samsung charge or the ironically underspecced revolution. Don't get me wrong at this point LG is my 2nd choice after HTC but the revolution didn't impress me at all. I refuse to go 3 years without touching another phone only to not get an upgraded camera... that and it's still 4.3". I wish I could give it a chance but I just can't afford a $2/300 expirament right now... maybe Verizon will make enough money off of tiered plans to make up for all the people they'll loose once they make the switch ... I doubt a user outcry will effect them like Motorola it HTC at this point though. Its like once manufacturers decide to open up for good, all the carriers are locking down. I'm not going to pay $199/mo on T-Mobile just for my boyfriend and I when my dad is paying $149/mo for 5 lines.. with prices like that I'm afraid my bf will drag me kicking and screaming to ghettro.... metro PC's has no phones with root. No custom roms.... at thatt point we may as well just stay with Verizon but downgrade to feature phones.

Whew that was a long one :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] Letitride:
Hear ya, I figure that if I'm going to up-size to a bigger device, "I might as well tether with a rooted 7" tablet with decent battery life" and use a "dumb" old mobile phone for calls. I joked with DW that pretty soon, guys will be running around town with a shoulder bag designed for thse bigger devices, can't imagine fitting them into a dress shirt or slack pocket or clipping it onto a dress belt.

Howardforums has the latest gossip & update on the new tiered data pricing & grandfathered option for unlimited data, and the bad news seemed to be that Big Red will require a data plan for any new feature phone being activated (if you are on one now & opted out, you are fine until you switch phone - even it's from eBay, WTH). And, existing 3G unlimited users will NOT be allowed to continue & carry over their unlimited data options to 4G device past July 7th.

Getting less (values/services) for more (money) seemed to be Big Red's mission. I'm not a big data user, haven't gone over 500 MB per month & only tethered when I'm in a pinch, and with nice 22% corporate discount, it's a deal for staying with VZW all these years - but I'm seriously looking at switching over to GSM - wide choices of smartphones for true global travel use (unlocked & rooted) with better "resale" value in the market. It's pathetic on the residual trade-in or resale value of our 3G devices, just 6 to 12 months after initial releases even while it's still under the original 12 month OEM warranty.

Yeah looks like I may be moving to Sprint here if this becoxes difficult. Too bad they don't have any really good phones anyway.
[Droid Eris Android Development] saintdice:
Thanks for everything, Tazz. I've moved on to the Thunderbolt, but my wife's phone is still reliant on you and Shed. Your work has been greatly appreciated.

Here's hoping better days are ahead for you and yours.
[Droid Eris Android Development] ILikeBubbles:
Just heard that a vzw repasts existing customers will be able to keep unlimited into 4g. If that's true that would be awesome! I hope when a 3.2"-3.5" device is finally released that it sells out for the first 6 months.pr
[Droid Eris Android Development] ngc604:
sprint at least has the nexus s 4g. normally wouldn't touch a samsung phone but since that one is handled by google i could go for that. Seems like Sprint is going to take t-mobiles place as the carrier with unaltered android phones. If the att/tmobile goes through everyone knows att is not going to release stock android phones nor easily hackable phones. They like their network locked down more then verizons. I switched to t-mo on valentines day and the only bad day was when i heard they might get bought out. Verizon employee saw my eris was running a cm7 based rom and reported my account as a "hacker" and i was told by vzw techs that they couldn't help me at all. even if i made my phone completely stock still no help at all nor ever again. He also said that vzw official position with any issue i had was due to me hacking the phone. not their fault.

on the other hand t-mo store manager debated with me over which is better AOSP or cm. and their official twitter account stated they couldn't wait to see what cm was going to do with the g2x. T-mo is more open to the open source idea. i hope the merger fails. if it does come join the better side. the sensation is great and the t-mo g3 unofficial specs seem like its going to be really nice.
[Droid Eris Android Development] dragonrazorz:
i use over 5 gigs cuz i dont have home internet, i went to open account befor unlimited was gpne and itll cost me $400 :( looks like ill be on my family plan forever unless sprint or tmo get better coverage in rural areas :(
[Droid Eris Android Development] ILikeBubbles:
not to be whiny or anything but has anyone else noticed the Navigation on the latest release of this rom is a little off? ive used it a couple times and i consistently loose gps signal.. is there something I can do to fix it?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
It seems its all recent roms . I didn't have issues but others are .I'm looking into it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] IndyRoadie:
There is a GPS fix here:

Has anyone tried it on the Eris?

Alright sweet. Ty Tazz Sry I dont mean to be greedy or anything xD and ill look into that fix, ty :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
need feed back

http://www.multiupload.com/GGHF0D2DPP 7.1 rc

if u have issues flashing over , do a wipe,,
[Droid Eris Android Development] IndyRoadie:
Downloading now..
[Droid Eris Android Development] IndyRoadie:
Did 3 Dalvik wipes, and a flash over. So far so good...

Thanks for coming back for an update, MUCH appreciated bro!
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
I used Gps for 45 minutes no issues
[Droid Eris Android Development] IndyRoadie:
Sweet!

Are you having the same results with notifications that I am? (trackball on solid)
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
that has to be conaps light fix. I bet I missed it again..ill add it tomorrow.unless u have a released that they worked. U could pull the lights file from xbin folder and add it to this one

Edit : I checked and if u go to notifications and set something u want notified ..it flashes
[Droid Eris Android Development] dragonrazorz:
is it suppose to take 30 mins to load pass the "orbs" screen? :(
[Droid Eris Android Development] IndyRoadie:
Did you try to flash over the previous version or did you do a complete wipe?

Did you flash the gapps package after you flashed the ROM, but before reboot?

Here's what I did and it worked for me.

NAND Backup

Dalvik Wipe 3 times

Flashed ROM

Flashed gapps

Reboot

Hope that helps until someone more knowledgeable comes along..
[Droid Eris Android Development] IndyRoadie:
Thanks bro, I'll try that..
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
New framework..do a wipe bro :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] dragonrazorz:
tazz i replied to wrong one lol i thought i was in ur gin-sense-tazz rom or whatever haha my bad but while im here what do actually wipe before i flash it? it goes past my bootscreen and all that and just freezes i guess with those sense orb thingys floatin...i know u said it takes awhile to load but it seems forever lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
On.average. its about.8-12 minutes I'm trying to figure out y it takes so long
[Droid Eris Android Development] dragonrazorz:
hmmm ill try again
[Droid Eris Android Development] IndyRoadie:
That worked, sorta..

It's like they reversed the time intervals. Instead of a short flash, followed by a long dark, its a LONG flash, followed by a quick dark.. if that makes sense.

I have the Notifications set to the fastest interval too. Weird.

Still a great ROM :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] ILikeBubbles:
ok i tried checking settings for trackball glow when i have a txt or something but it didn't really work for me... idk i couldn't really figure it out it said led/trackball... whatever. anyway WHAT does everyone think of the droid incredible 2? i'm thinking about getting it because i really don't want the TB (*cringe*) lol i know it's an awesome phone but 4" is bigger than i really wanted but i'm willing to stretch it for the sake of an upgrade at this point. especially since Tazz won't be supporting this rom anymore and honestly i kind of don't really want to wait ill ice cream sammich etc... well many reasons. i love you tazz and you've made my phone godly but i'm just getting in the mood again where i'm tired of looking at it no matter how well it runs. :( <3<3
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
no need to say sorry:) i should be the one saying to u guys,,, ive just been haven so many personal issues that to be honest,,,its took the fun outta doing this,,,ill leave my roms to whomever wants to build off of them,, ill still have my hands on gst to a point,,, but i left it in good hands for now:)
[Droid Eris Android Development] ILikeBubbles:
Awww no worries! I would just feel bad moving on because I like ya so much haha
[Droid Eris Android Development] Mercys Fallen:
We'll all miss each other! Me personally i'm thinking bionic which is flipping huge ( thats what she said..couldn't help it :D). The unlocked bootloader rumor has me interested...and is going to be epic even if its locked.. expensive as piss though. ( freaking Irish and english co-workers ruining my american...) But until I'm rocking me some Tazz. I'll prolli keep this lil sucker for music and note taking tho. So whenever Sammich comes out I'll be here!:eek::cool:;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] ILikeBubbles:
Aww true :) I can't wait for the bionic!! I want it for my boyfriend so badly I think it would make a good belated birthday present as his bday is Jul 25... especially because he's starting to have problems with his X again. :( idk what's wrong it random reboots or turns off while its charging... is that just because it got too hot? Its been kind of uncomfortable here in sactown of late..
[Droid Eris Android Development] ILikeBubbles:
Is anyone still having navigation issues? All mine were fixes with Tazzs last release ...
[Droid Eris Android Development] chimpsnest:
God I miss this thread .... some of the TBolt ROM forums are total anarchy now :mad: (not that we've always been perfect in this thread, lol).

Running CM7 now on my Bolt ... Tazz did you ever take the plunge and flash a ROM?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
No not yet ..have u gotten the update yet? ..like ur pink Sig lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] chimpsnest:
Do you mean the latest CM7 from 7/6? I'm running that w/the OTA radio that came out on the 7th or 8th. I was running w/the 2.5 radio, it was working fine, but figured an "official" one may be best.

Very smooth, use it as my DD.

Yeah, I went pink :-)

No go for me, tried it twice. just causes browser FC's

Also, tazz, are you happy with the tbolt? I'm gonna upgrade in Sept and can't decide what to get. Been looking at the Charge and the Tbolt. Wife is getting the Fascinate this weekend.
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
Ok, I don't have my Eris anymore so had no idea if it would work.

I love my incredible 2...battery life is amazing..

Oh s*** what's up tazz
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheGeek007:
Ah cool! I bought my wife a HTC Incredible 2. She loves it a lot. Is there a root method yet?

HTC was in the process of unlocking bootloaders, but haven't announced any Verizon phones (I pray Verizon didn't prevent them).

The phone is new, but neither Netflix or Hulu seems to be making apps that are compatible with the Incredible 2. I wonder if its Verizon again. :/
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
Yes I have miui on it. Love it. Netflix works with root. As does Skype. Hulu is slowly moving.

The root method is super easy. Especially if you have ubuntU
[Droid Eris Android Development] Mercys Fallen:
Yer in sac? You should warn me when you hit the city we can compare phones lol. Yeah gotta love this phone but its been 16 months....
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Yea bro I love the phone
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Sup bro.. long time man..
[Droid Eris Android Development] hoovnick:
Cool. The wife wound up getting the LG revolution today. The stores said they weren't getting any more Fascinates. Looks like i'm gonna test drive her original Moto Droid for a while. Have to root it and play around.

Whose in sac??? That's where I live *****es!!! We should hang out!
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
Tazz just making sure, but you are not pushing any more updates for this correct?

My gr claims the only problem is she can't get pics she takes to save after capture. Other than that, she gets amazing battery life...way better than I ever got haha

Edit:un mounting and re mounting the SD card fixed it.

so im on a new family account and verizon gave me this retarded moto citrus....they also said my eris is locked to the previous account and cant use it unless that bill is paid, which it never will.....so what am i suppose to do with this eris? Citrus is a piece of crap...any suggestions? i love my eris lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] IndyRoadie:
You could use it as a WiFi only device. I THINK you can use Google voice with it that way, but of course, only where you can access WiFi.
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
This is true. But you can't make calls with it. Also I don't know how and couldn't tell you even if I did...but there is a method to change the esn...if I shouldn't of said this let me know and ill delete it. I'm just so mad at Verizon I feel he should have a fair chance.

sent from an under rated phone
[Droid Eris Android Development] IndyRoadie:
Yeah, I dont know anything about changing the ESN, but I swear I saw someone posting about using their Eris as a WiFi phone and making calls..

I will see if I can find it..
[Droid Eris Android Development] lemonoid:
I'm working on the Wifi only calls right now, or trying. Been tryin to workaround somethings using Voice but idk we'll see.... if anyone knows how or figures it out let me know.
[Droid Eris Android Development] dragonrazorz:
yea...i figured its just a wifi device now :( ive searched google on the ens problem but havent found anyhing :( my mom has her verizon number even though she had sprint aaand tmo....i dnt get how they let her do that and i cant even get my prev verizon number to use on the darn same network

Loaded this one. Everything seems to be working wonderfully, and fast!!
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
Im on it bro. Hope things r ok.

On a side note. Wanting to use the eris for my daughter as an "ipod touch" type device since i have the tbolt now. Basically just want wifi only. Is there anyway to do this so the radio is basically completely disabled and wont use any battery. Basically airplane mode but with wifi. Im sure is simple.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Thanx bro.. Nah.thing still.suck but what else.is.new.lol ...put.in my settlement offer now.I'm.waiting

nvm im a dumb ass i see it in sig

[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Hhmm ok I'm gonna have to check the update script.. maybe i deleted something .. I'm using the same with the other Rom.. same issue :confused:
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
yeah same happens with CPCookieMan's MP3 rom when i gave it a shot but then again his start up screen says welcome to Gin-Tazz the end pt 2!!!! I assume you know about that.

You sure you flashed mp3 ROM then?

[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
yep double checked and reflashed to make sure
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Who's does? I know mine does..
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
hold off boys... i may have screwed up. let me try and redownload his rom and reflash. may have been a bad download
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
nevermind bro. sorry bout that. his rom keeps erroring on install and aborting the installation so it was defaulting back to a wiped Tazz-the end. i wasnt paying enough attention to the flash screen
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Lol I didnt think so
[Droid Eris Android Development] MongooseHelix:
So wifi works fine normally but when you use Condemned's script it connects then disables? What happens when you have wifi off, turn airplane mode on, then turn wifi on...connect and stay that way?
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
The script worked fine on both of my phones and i know of several others using it with no issues.

Sent from my ADR6300
[Droid Eris Android Development] MongooseHelix:
There's no reason for the script to be causing an issue. It wasn't clear to me if he is having general wifi issues, just on this rom in particular, or after using your script.
[Droid Eris Android Development] daveseris:
+1 no scripts in use
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
no wifi before using script. it is just not sticking when connecting. Tazz says he is aware of this and will take a look. Nothing wrong with CS script that I am aware of.

Edit- and BTW I cant find a working install of CPCookieMan POS rom anywhere on the thread. All links error on flash and abort. Sorry CS if he's your pal but its a no go for that ROM as far I can tell.
[Droid Eris Android Development] MongooseHelix:
Thanks for clearing that up for me.

As for the MP3 rom, once you downloaded, did the zip's md5 match what was listed in the OP?
[Droid Eris Android Development] sridhar_kkin:
Hi tazz, I flashed ur 2ND ROM,its good and fast,stable also. But here there is no market,Google account sync. Please help
[Droid Eris Android Development] MongooseHelix:
You'll need to also flash Gapps in recovery like you did with the ROM. You can download the latest gapps from here:

http://goo-inside.me/gapps - get the CM7 ones
[Droid Eris Android Development] IndyRoadie:
Also in the OP...
[Droid Eris Android Development] MongooseHelix:
Wasn't trying to bypass the OP but the ones there are older unless I'm mistaken.
[Droid Eris Android Development] IndyRoadie:
I was just pointing out where it was :)

Besides, I seem to recall Tazz leaving the older one in the OP because that is the one he uses... I could be wrong..

Wifi not working

The test rom is working very well for me. Only thing that isn't working in this rom for me is Wifi. I can't connect. It keeps saying obtaining address then scanning...
[Droid Eris Android Development] jhwk316:
+1 on the Wifi it won't connect. I also can't seem to receive sms, I can send just fine I just can't receive. I'm pretty sure this isn't related to this ROM or any others as I was experiencing this problem with GSB v8. Just wanted to know if anyone else is experiencing similar problems due to Verizon's network perhaps. I will be leaving the Eris family tomorrow as my upgrade phone is due to arrive so I am curious if sms is still problematic for me. Tazz, thank you so much for letting me enjoy my phone much longer than I would have without your help and the help of the entire Eris forum.

Guys I know about the WiFi .I'm trying to fix it.. don't have my internet fixed cus Verizon is on strike
