Sorry to be asking this.

I am usually a Droid user, but letting my bro-in-law use it, so Im stuck with this eris. :-( I was running an early version of KAOSFROYO on it while my bro-in-law used it, so after the initial root and rom placement, I havent messed with it.

So I am trying out Tazz GB (as I just got that on the droid) and noticed that as far as I could find his was the only one with working GPS. I have tried both versions 3.5 and 3.5.1 with absolutely no luck yet. When I get past the Cyanogen boot logo and get to the screen with word that starts with 'A' (brain not working on that name), I start getting FC's on everything, then it goes back to the cyanogen boot animation. Then continues.

On 3.5.1 I am stuck on the inital 'skateboard' logo (but I have not partitioned SD card, just wanted to see if I had luck with it.)

I am at a loss. Formated data/ then Davalik / installed rom / installed gapps/ rebooted (even shut down once). I also tried the same with clearing data and davalik three times each.

Any ideas on how to get this one running, and please get me off these skateboards, as volume up + power is turning it on, but that is it, I have held it for 10 seconds. :-)

Thanks, love the hard work you've done on this!!

Hi 2ceedz, welcome to the world of Tazz. Unfortunately he is working out a kink or two with the gb rom right now. He always rocks his roms but some funky stuff is going on with this one atm. If you want to bear with it Im sure he and his testers will iron it out in a day or so. Until then I recommend http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=733897 as an outstanding alternative.
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
Nope bro v4 on v1 = reboots. I had v1 of Tazz cm7 working great (aside from wifi, and mms) and flashed v4 no wipe. Got reboots immed.
[Droid Eris Android Development] 2Ceedz:
Thanks for the quick response. I now have a little bigger issue, as now I am stuck on the skateboarding droids. :-( I am pulling battery and starting it with power (end) and volume up pressed, nothing is happening, stuck on the skateboards.

Am I going to have to go into RSD to fix this and if so how do I get into the bootloader?

Thanks again!
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
If you were truly rooted then you should absolutely be able to get back to recovery by pwr and vol up. Im sure you know all this but remember that you have to have vol up pressed when you press pwr, not just after pwr. Another thing you can try is to press pwr and vol down which will send you to fastboot screen which you can then press vol up to go to recovery.

Edit: keep in mind you could be on skating droids for 5min sometimes before a new rom loads.
[Droid Eris Android Development] 2Ceedz:
Ok,

5 mins, wow, LoL. Yeah found the 'fastboot' and that got me into recovery. I realize with most all roms for Eris since FroYo have bugs that constantly get worked out. (Thanks to the devs.)

Like I said, Im an original Droid owner usually, so im not used to waiting that long i guess. I will give it one more go before I use my nandroid backup, but one last question if you dont mind.

Should this Rom load on my rooted eris? And if so, any idea why all the FC's? I looke thru this post and didnt see anything except a few instances with only certain things. As soon as I get past bootlogo I get FC's until boot logo returns.

(Got spoiled on GB, LoL, and im not too picky, just like my GPS. :-P)
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
Not sure why issues are popping up right now. T is trying very hard to work them out. It will load but has some reboot issues in it's current version.
[Droid Eris Android Development] 2Ceedz:
Yeah, so far Im the only one I've seen in this thread with constant FC's on boot. :-(
[Droid Eris Android Development] theoemrys:
2ceedz,

My friend has a Droid that I rooted, I put cm 6.2 in for him because cm 7 was still buggy at the time. What do you run? I am not as familiar with all the roms ad I am with the Eris. I kinda want to put muiu on just to f*Co with him. Lol. Your help would be great.
[Droid Eris Android Development] 2Ceedz:
I personally like Bugless Beast, although not all the 'bells and whistles' of CM (but Ive always has small bugs with that). Peter Alfonso (Bugless Beast) just came out with a stock stable GB for it, that was what I am running on that phone. He is going to be porting it to his next custom rom Bugless Beast.

:-)

At least now I guess the eris is FC'ing then rebooting instead of going back to bootloop.
[Droid Eris Android Development] theoemrys:
Thank you.
[Droid Eris Android Development] 2Ceedz:
Tried wiping and 3.5 with gapps, into the bootloop, guess im making progress. Could it be my kernal maybe (with droid, not really bootloops but problems b/c of kernals sometimes)
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
alright, had some more time to play. i tried to see if it was an issue with syncing over 3g since tazz only has wifi. i canceled out of the initial gapps install and immediately activated wifi. still had reboot issues. they seem to have been fixed by the battery pull. this is on version 4. my next step is going to be to instead of clicking the "i already have a google account" i'm going to try to create a new one and see if i still get problems since with a new account, there will be nothing to sync wrong from the market. thought my eris was plugged in, just looked and saw 30% charge... apparently it wasn't charging. at least i didn't brick it. gonna charge a bit and try to create a new account.
[Droid Eris Android Development] spc_hicks09:
Hey would you happen to have the rom for v3 still ? If so is there any way you could send it to me ? I'm having keyboard issues with 3.5 and 3.5.1. Tried to change out the keyboard .apk on the rom but i don't know how to resign a rom once you open it. I had the v3 rom running but deleted it to upgrade to 3.5. If you can please either send it on here (if possible) or to spc.hicks09@yahoo.com

Edit: I asked tazz in a pm but i'm sure he's probably exhausted and out for the night.
[Droid Eris Android Development] 8on3s:
Hmmm trying tomorrow wit 3.5

Gotta get the the kids to daycare LOL on time, but will see what I find with a flash over v1 for you Tazz, we were never this lucky with 2.2. keep it up bro and it will clear soon, also I remember you having the perfect eris with 2.2 deving as well, back with version 10 and extending I think to 13/14. Its been a great ride and I expect even more from you bro, keep it up! Been with you almost the entire life of my rooted eris, jumped around at times to taste what was out there, but always came back. I know you all work the same projects, but its your personal touch we all go here for. keep it up Tazz!
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
sent the pm
[Droid Eris Android Development] USSENTERNCC1701E:
There's a market app, ZipSigner, you can just transfer the unsigned zip to the phone and go from there, pretty straight forward, though I've never messed with the key settings, has always worked fine on auto. Good tool to keep about :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
Agreed..
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Guys I woke up to 18 people wanting v4. At this point.. im not going to be giving that out anymore..it obviously isn't working ... hopefully ill have something later. Well its working for me lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
I dunno bro. I flashed it this morning over 3.5.1 with a dalvik wipe and haven't had any problems as of yet. Flashed 3 hours ago. So its not just you :rolleyes: lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] zackw:
While I'm sure 4 would be fine for some of us, I think I am pretty happy on V3 for now. Not had a single issue with it since I flashed, and everything the girlfriend needs is working just fine on it. She's actually pretty happy with the phone now too.. which isn't something I can say for most of the froyo roms I had installed for her.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Macrodroid:
I have had reboot and fc issues as well, but not since I did the following...

1- full wipe data and dalvik

2- flash v3.5

3- flash gapps

4- flash changetovzw

5- reboot and skip sign in.

* mine started rebooting at this point...

6- reboot to recovery

7- wipe dalvik only

8- flash v3.5.1

9- reboot and enjoy!

I haven't had any issues since doing this... Kaos also needs a flashover from a previous version

I think gb is looking for a partition that already exists with gb on it, or something...
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
I hereby even had reboot issues. Just the normal gps stuff that's not your fault.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
so my replacement eris should be arriving today (had the infamous trackball issue) i'm going to root and put this rom on first, and see what happens. i will post my results, but it probably won't be until this evening.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
no i wanted the results posted yesterday :D lmao
[Droid Eris Android Development] ianoob:
Clean install (erase sd, remove any remaining folders via file manager, wipe and flash) off 3.5 from GSB 1.2 was good. Clean install of 3.5 from xtrtenzo failed. Dirty install (wipe and flash only) of 4.0 from GSB 1.3 caused reboot after every app installed and some, xda, wouldn't. Will try a clean install of 4.0 from GSB 1.3 when I get home (battery almost dead).
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
ok good news

ok what ive noticed the last 100 flashes haha everytime i skipped setup( for the record ,, i dont flash gapps ) but when i looked at the home screen the market was there , and rom manager :confused: well today just flashed and its not there :D so maybe ( and i think someone posted this) phone was not completely erasing :confused: so im gunna upload it ,, the first 5 ill let test ,,
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
lol. although the nice thing about my job is that i work three nights on and then have four off so i actually have time, i just need ups to deliver the darn thing. although if you release a v5, i will probably flash that to my old phone then to the new one.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
I've had no reboots and everything works for me once again ... but did notice the things I mentioned
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
Ok one other thing... instead of pming certain people to test.. im gunna post it here... but... I do only want five testers.. so if u dl it.. please tel me so I can pul it... I just don't want 100 pissed of flashers lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
I wiped 5 times when I flashed 3.5.1. Have yet to flash gapped since v 1 and even after all the wiping my themed mask clock was still there lol. Not sure how but it was.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
ok please only five ,,, dont quote this post so i can delete the link
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Downloading on my phone. Hopefully it will work, lol.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
should we need to flash gapps or just the rom?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
thanx bro ,, just let me know when its done so i can keep track ,, it doesnt show right away for me
[Droid Eris Android Development] bradrobster:
Downloading it now
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Downloading on phone too. Maybe I'll have better luck with miren browser. I'll let you know if the download is ok. Lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] xtreme3737:
Downloading to my phone.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
downloading here too. another observation. i flashed sheds new cm7 and saw some programs stick on it too, and my carhome which had started having problems being found with my last two flashes of your rom, had problems in shed's also. i'm going through before flashing to uninstall all the apps from my phone and try to get them to resync with the market... dunno... i'm confused.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
hey bro ,, i know u love skulls ,, check this out

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6PRfDJQY_Y8

this band kicks ass bro ,,
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
yea i noticed, its in here too ,, only car home tho
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
avenged sevenfold, good choice.

edit: i'm also trying to find a way to clear the "my apps" list in the market. i wonder if the market is remembering apps such as rom manager and just not listing them? i cleared the market cache... no dice. that used to work.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Nice! They are pretty decent bro. Its not deicide or anything but not bad :D lol. Looks like the download was good bro. It says complete and the size is right. I'll flash soon as I get my battery back up. Lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
i have all their cds ,,, they are great
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
And who doesn't like a little skull bro? ;) lmao
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheGeek007:
You guys seem to be testing the Tazz's ROM's and trying to find "workarounds", when what Tazz really needs is something like logfiles showing what has failed and why.

Tazz, what kind of information or logs would be most helpful to you when debugging these issues, and how do we find these logs so that we may send them to you? Is there a link with instructions somewhere? There has to be an app for this!
[Droid Eris Android Development] bradrobster:
I wiped and flashed it, didnt flash gapps as I had not flashed gapps before

This time, it came up quick but obviously -0- google menus and no market and no reboots. After 5 min, i just booted to recovery and flashed the gb gapps and it's booting now...will let ya know
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
id just flash the rom no gapps to see what comes back,, it started fresh for me ,, no extras
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
just a logcat would be fine ,, can just pm me it
[Droid Eris Android Development] computerfreek:
IS GPS working 100% with NAV and other apps ? .. It is such a mess in the fourms .. Plus XDA serch is not like google lol .

Thanks

Computerfreek

Thank You for keeping the eris alive ...

Note tiger direct has rerurb eris for $129.99 right now unless thay sold out already .
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
ok its showing 0 downloads ,, how many have it downloaded?
[Droid Eris Android Development] theoemrys:
+1

Tazz,

I am off today and would like to help test. I still quite new to this so i dont quite know what kind of information you want. Your roms are normally preform better on my phone without issue.

I did see you ask earlier for some one to stright flash a new version over v1. Would you want me to try this?

*edit* i did
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Downloaded here bro.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
i don't know if anyone has had time to test gps fully yet.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
not tryin to sound like a ass,, just tryin to limit pages with the same issues ,, hope u all understand
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
+1 complete download here.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
I'm at 91%.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
ok so 3 so far
[Droid Eris Android Development] DoubleByte:
For what it's worth with respect to the problems people seem to be having, here has been my experience. No complaints...I am just offering this up to help identify what might be happening.

I loaded GB 3.5 and it loaded fine and booted up. I was having some networking issues and tried reverting back to Froyo. Full wipe and SD formatting, etc.

The phone is not bricked because I can get into recovery but:

Trying to install a Froyo ROM results in an install error.

GB will install with no errors, but sits at the skateboarders on reboot

My Froyo recovery image installs but sits at the skateboarders on reboot

So, now I have my wife's Eris (which she didn't like) and she got the new phone:(
[Droid Eris Android Development] theoemrys:
me too. but i do feel like the new kid in the back of the class room.. lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
damn bro ,,, sorry
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
horray... wiped from shed's flashed yours. no gapps flash. booted into rom with no gapps or rom manager. i even had the little worthless android help droid on my home screen.

going back to recovery to wipe, reflash, and flash gapps.
[Droid Eris Android Development] computerfreek:
3.5 and 3.5.1 downloaded i will test NAV/GPS on my backup eris soon . Thanks Tazz
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
ok looks like when bus is done ,, there is my fi ve
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
Got it also
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
good cuz i didnt know how much more i could take lol i spents hours on this ,,,
[Droid Eris Android Development] Ronin09:
For some reason the USB won't work.......does anyone have a fix for this. I even did a factory reset but the USB is getting a force close on 3.5 and 3.5.1
[Droid Eris Android Development] bradrobster:
Tazz, after flashing gb gapps .. I am solid...NO reboots..and Im about 15 min into it.

*Flashed v5 no gapps - came up clean, no market, no setup..no reboots

*I booted to recovery, loaded gb gapps

*setup screen came up, i setup my gmail acct,

*new Google apps screen came up, hit cancel

*still clean ..no reboots

*went into market, clicked my apps..saw that they were all downloading

*apps downloaded..at least all that I have used for the last 5 times that I have loaded any GB rom.

*At the end of the apps loading, the new google setup screen appeared again? Hit cancel..again :)

Now 20+ min into it..no reboots at all..very stable, starting to setup all my other stuff and need to go back and flash the verizon zip.

Nice job...I still think the issue was/is related to google and the changes that GB or cm7 is doing to interact with the google setup.

Thank you! this is looking solid..no reboots at all:D:D
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
we are testing a v5. i might hold on from flashing for a short while.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Just finished, lol.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
works for me :confused:
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
I saw that most are flashing the rom and then booting back into recovery to flash gapps. I'm going to go the other route and flash the rom then gapps then reboot to see if any problems come up that way.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
we are currently testing v5 as i write this. usb mount will not work on v.3.5 and 3.5.1 for some users.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
well as a side note i found how prevent from resinstalling all the crap from the market. if on the google sign in screen, you press menu then click disable restore. i did that and then on the gapps select screen picked the ones i wanted. seems to be working fine so far. stupid google market.

sorry so excited i forgot to post my steps. went to recovery, wiped, flashed just rom, loads fine no gapps. then went back to recovery, wiped, flashed rom and immediately flashed gapps. loads no problems so far.

perfect so far. the carhome app on the market side is missing, so it will say "app not found" or some such thing if you select to install it. and i did select "do not restore apps" on the original google login screen. the only apps currently listed under my apps are the google apps. just fyi.

installed non-google app from market. no reboot or other issues.

thanks for stickin with it tazz. smooth, clean, running well.
[Droid Eris Android Development] 8on3s:
Oh boy :) was going to flash 3.5 now I hear a 5 is in the works??
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
good :D honestly i was gunna give upp lol i just couldnt figure out all the issues u guys had
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
hold off man
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
really? carhome was already installed when i flashed the gapps:confused:
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
I'll try a flash over and see what happens that way.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
is it working as is?
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
maybe it's just me? i have the apk anyway. just didn't want people seeing the popup and getting concerned if it's not just me.

let me clarify. the icon and apk for the carhome launcher is in the app drawer. opening it brings you back to the regular home screen, but puts the icon in your status bar as if it is running.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
hhhmm thats odd bro ,, wonder y it would for some and not others,,,, i hope thats the only issues lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] USSENTERNCC1701E:
OMFG, this post should be stickied, amazing. I googled the **** out of this, all I could find was "why would you want to stop that" and "that's what it's supposed to do" and "did you mean why isn't it restoring"
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
i spent like 10 minutes on google and couldn't find anything. dropped my phone and hit the menu button during the screen and found it...lol

tazz, manual brightness and usb mount work. wifi and bluetooth work. gps locks on right away correctly, don't know about navigation.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
I've had a few market reboots and tried gps. It works just seems slow when im driving lol. Nothing major though. Just started in the last hour.
[Droid Eris Android Development] 2Ceedz:
Tazz,

I know you only wanted five to test, but as I could not get 3.5 or 3.5.1 to boot on my phone (bootloops) I really wanted to test this one for you.

Wiped data then davlik, Installed with no gapps, rebooted, and (Woo Hoo!) it booted, of course no market and such. Then I Reboot into recovery install gapps, and the 'changevzw.zip', reboot, and to the Droid welcome screen!! You are the man!! Asked me to install the gapps on signin to google, canceled, now to see if my apps restore, etc. Google Search widget didnt show, but just re-added it and it appeared.

Dont know why 3.5 or 3.5.1 bootlooped, but really glad you left v5 up so that I could test. I am the only one I saw posted that got FC's until it went back to bootlogo (and then looped later). That is why even though im not in your 5 I wanted to let you know so far so good.

I had Tazz Froyo GB v26/ Vanilla v28/ 6.2 rc1/ 1/15/11 running last night as I couldnt get 3.5 or 3.5.1 working. Just me maybe, but the bootlogo on that rom is the BEST, way to go on both these working roms (so far-hard testing starts now).

Thanks again, and hope its ok that I tested a little late. Also, probably because I had a droid last night and just switched to this, market isnt d/ling any of my apps, but pretty sure its not an issue on your side. ;-) THANKS!!
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Changed my mind. Gonna full wipe and test it right. Lol. Just want to help the best I can.
[Droid Eris Android Development] bradrobster:
Just a few observations regarding the Google sign in/market/apps loading:

I experienced this with Shed's first rom as well..On that first new Google Apps screen, for the heck of it...I selected ALL. After that...I only selected a few things but even since then...I am still getting some ...not all.... of those apps..regardless of if I skip that screen now on Tazz's GB rom.

I still get things like car/home, goggles, chrome to phone...even though they have not been selected since I originally did it with Shed's first version of a GB rom.

I think the way that google is storing that info..based on your gmail address is what is not right on the google side. I don't think that part of it is rom related at all...I got the same behavior on both roms..and the behavior of restoration is inconsistent at best.:D:D
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
yeah google is. that's why i had to do the "do not restore settings" from the original google login. i use titanium backup so my restores are quite easy.

tazz, what else do you want me to checkout?

titanium backup restore worked fine
