Excellent. On another note .... did I read someplace in this thread (can't find it now of course) that there is a way to turn your non-activated Eris into a plain ole music player?

Did you ROM your Tbolt yet???
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
Yea, just put it in airplane mode lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Or use the script in my Sig that disables the cell and 3g on your radio and leaves WiFi active. :p

That's how I feel too :-) I seem to have found a pretty good group of folks in the Th3ory ROM forums for the TBolt here on XDA.

First time SMS problems

I've been using your roms for my whole contract period with this Eris. After flashing this time I can no longer receive SMS. I can send SMS though. I tried the *228 but when the recording asks me to press a # I can't see how to get access to the number pad while in the call!

Does anyone here know how I might get the number pad to appear during the reprogramming call?

Or maybe another way to fix receiving SMS?
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
Hold the menu button :-)
[Droid Eris Android Development] harrycjr:
I just found the answer in the general Eris section too.
[Droid Eris Android Development] IndyRoadie:
If that doesn't work, you probably should try the method from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=996425&highlight=sms

It's worked for me when I had the same problem..
[Droid Eris Android Development] harrycjr:
Thanks! The 228 stuff didn't seem to help. So I'll give this a try.
[Droid Eris Android Development] harrycjr:
SMS fix

Thanks! That did the trick! Now I'm trying out Tazz's Sense Rom for the first time and I'll probably give this rom a second shot later. Not sure I can go back to sense after using android w/o for so long.
[Droid Eris Android Development] ianoob:
Looks like 2.1 Sense based ROMs have a format option instead of erase SD. I know that on a regular computer, erasing something is just telling the computer it can write over that area of the disk. When you format, it still retains the old data, but it is under a blank data layer (the reason why cops and specialist can recover data off a "clean" disk). Maybe we should revert before flashing... trying now, will post results.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Luckily you are not bricked because you can get into recovery now have you tried to restore a nand backup?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
With the brightness have you tried to change it in settings? That is where we are getting the failure.
[Droid Eris Android Development] DoubleByte:
I tried installing a nand backup which I did right beforeall this and also had a problem, but I'll give it another go.

Just tried reinstalling GB3.5...installs with no error, but now I'm just sitting at the skateboarders...about 5 min now.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Give it a few more. I think it took mine awhile on boot.
[Droid Eris Android Development] greatbigdragon:
Wait - no partitions? Does the A2SD version work without partitioning, as in having just a single FAT32 partition on the card?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Take what I say here with a grain of salt, because I'm not 100% on this. Unlike the 2.1 apps2sd here it is here it is part of the system and doesn't require partitioning. I flashed the apps2sd version yesterday with my sd card formatted fat32 and was able to move apps to the card and was still able to use them. No problems what so ever.
[Droid Eris Android Development] n2imagination:
Yes the froyo builds all did not require any partition for a2sd. They allot a section of the sd card as "internal" memory to use for app moving. They actually create a folder for the apps in the root sd card as you move them. There has been some ?s as to wheather or not cm7 needs a partition but no one who has gotten it to work well has used any partition. Long story short, you are most likely to get the best results from...

1> format the entire sdcard fat32

2> copy the rom zip to the root

3> boot to recovery and wipe dalvik and factory restore 3 time each

4> flash rom zip (do not flash Gapps)

5> reboot and bypass the new gaaps option to install apps

6> start up market once booted up, log in, and leave it alone for a good 5-10 min while it restores you apps
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Awesome, so much clearer and more concise than my explanation.:D Thanks N2
[Droid Eris Android Development] ianoob:
So, flashing from xtr tenzo rc mix 2.1 caused me to boot back into recovery when flashing from GSB succeeded... maybe you have to have either KGB or GSB 1st? What did everyone flash from and did it work or not?

no im not doing anything different,,, im not even formatting my card,,, just wiping and flashing that is it,,, i have no re boots force closing no nuthing :confused:
[Droid Eris Android Development] DoubleByte:
No dice....Recovery completed but the phone has been sitting at the skateboarders for 15 min now. Maybe how I prepped the SD card? What should the swap and ext be set at? I used 0 swap and 0 ext.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
I'm not going to reformat or flash gapps on this test.
[Droid Eris Android Development] chimpsnest:
I just went back to a Sense based ROM on my TBolt after stepping away for a while and, honestly, the ROM kicks so much ass that I think it's going to be my DD for a while.

Flashed this latest on my Eris Tazz, just to play around - it's so different looking at a smaller screen I'm so used to the 'bolt even though I thought it was waaaaayyyy huge when I first got it.

Bluetooth

Not sure if anyone can help me out, but I am using Gin-Tazz The End pt3 and when I try connecting to my car or computer via Bluetooth the Bluetooth keeps cycling on and off, never connecting. The device will often say paired but not connected.

Is there anything I should add to the phone or change? Everything worked fine before I recently got a refurbished Eris.
[Droid Eris Android Development] disconnecktie:
I know some Bluetooth just don't work with some devices but the problem you have I've never heard of. Have you tried a different ROM.
[Droid Eris Android Development] IndyRoadie:
I had to try a couple times to get mine to pair with my stereo. If all else fails, you can always try to do a complete wipe a couple times and reflash..
[Droid Eris Android Development] dougie9816:
Not yet. That may be my next step.

[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
yeah, other posted instructions may have been done rambling in the middle of the night on the east coast. thanks!

edit: any reason for the 3 wipes? i have heard various information about wiping. guess it's better to be to thorough than not thorough enough when wiping :-)
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
*NOTE THIS IS A MESSAGE FOR TAZZ AND THE REST OF PEOPLE WITH THE V4 NOT FOR THE V3.5 POSTED ON THE MAIN PAGE*

i'm getting random reboots in v4 like in v3. won't stay on but for about 30 seconds. i'm trying the battery pull trick.

I put the rom on the card, booted to recovery, full wipe, flashed v4, went through setup like i would usually (selected apps to install), then about halfway through the install of gapps it reboots for the first time, then will not get through the setup without rebooting.

edit: ouch. froze on reboot post battery pull. gonna reflash and try canceling through the gapps the first time.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
wtf i quit ,,,, im haven no issues ,, i canot be the only one, dont know y u guys are and have no clue what to do
[Droid Eris Android Development] gospodinwizard:
I must be doing something wrong but I've followed these steps several times now and gotten nowhere ... going on 15 minutes and it still hasn't booted up. All I get is a gray screen which periodically says xtrROM in the middle even though I completely reformatted SC card and wiped data and cache SEVERAL times ... I am more than a bit confused at this point.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjb413:
anyway i can help u figure it out? and for the record, i have everything working in v3 once i beat it into submission so if people can get it to that point, it is an awesome rom.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
i dont know what to say bro,,, this rom is workoing 100% for me,, i dont know what to fix
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Same here. I just did a battery pull to see if that will work like on v3.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tazzpatriot:
well that it then,,, i dont know what else to do,,, i have not one issues at all,, guess ill close this thread,, cuz i cant fix whats not happening to me
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Tazz, did anyone get you a logcat? I would, but I forgot how.

Thanks in advance. And thanks tazz for the awesome rom.
[Droid Eris Android Development] B3L13V3:
About the random reboots, I'm no expert but this was happening to me all I did was keep my clock the same as in 604 min and 604 maximum with smart ass governor which I believe will clock down screen off regardless of your settings and wiped dalvik about 5 times then rebooted and let it do its thing. It rebooted about 5 times then started working after that...wierd. My guess is that while its booting up it doesnt finish writing to dalvik so reboots over and over till its done. I honestly dont know why I thought of that but since it stopped rebooting on me it was the only thing that made sense, but again im no expert. Tazz and Shed if there is any way we can help believe us we will do what we can!
[Droid Eris Android Development] douglasmcusmc:
TASS bro.. I'm not having any issues with this rom what so ever.. all I did was flash rom.. did not flash gapps and reboot.. did the setup and this rom is not laggy and seems very responsive.. thank you for the hard work...

I was getting the FC on mounting the USB too... the status bar fc's when you pull down notification bar and click on the mount SD card notification
[Droid Eris Android Development] wally19:
And Tazz don't give up. This is all still beta from cm7. These issues should work themselves out. When we first got root some phones would not take certainty roms. It just the way it goes.

No you don't. You can just go to applications under settings and move them to the sd.:D
