I've pulled this build. I stand behind google's request to not distribute builds including closed source applications.
what is advanced launcher?
it allows you to hide apps you don't use from your launcher drawer by dragging them to the trash.
Hey mssmison,
Your post says 320x240 res, but the decription on Vogue android says 320x480
Booted up using usual 320x480 fine, data and market works, able to place a call.
nice theme and pretty damn fast so far also.

actually, try 320x427 with lcd.density=160 for a correct aspect ratio while allowing the usage of all the apps.
very, very nice release indeed.
- using 320x427 with lcd.density=160 for correct aspect ratio while not breaking any apps (such as keyboard).
- very fast call notification (within 1st ringtone)
- wifi working
- data working
- market working
- very fast
- left some extra stuff, such as the rogers stuff (my account, ringback, ringtones), teeter, :-/
I set to 320x427 with lcd 160 but some apps like the music app is still getting cut off.
Also on the market I am only seein a few apps and games, not the full market.
I had this same issue with the 1.6 donut also.

it works with basefiles-20090919-v2
delete/rename any current data.img
1st boot takes a little longer (5 minutes?) displaying only a black screen in the process. just wait...

On the google Code page you will find a new bundle for the newly updated HTC cupcake build.
Includes advanced launcher, latest messaging app as well as many others.
You must make sure your res is 320x240 to boot. again the old rootfs won't work, this one is updated. I'll update the bundle later.

Hi
What a wonderfull build.. Thanks a lot to all who have developed this. Andriod definetly is far better than WM (for me atleast)
Was able to install the rogers build. It took sometime. I used the rootfs.img that came with the zip but didnt work on my tilt. So i used the one from the basefiles-v2 and that did the trick. It took sometime to load initially but did work.
Things that worked
1. Wifi and Market. Was able to download applications
2. Browser working
3. Calling and SMS worked (though with slight issues)
4. GPS working (recoginzed in google maps and Sportyhal)
5. Import contacts worked
6. Music with good clear sound
7. Great speed
Things that didnt work or had issues
1. You tube connect and i can listen to music but can only see the first image that it download and not the whole video
2. For some reason I cannot confirm at this time the calling was going thru but wasnt able to hear the call answer
3. All new icons for shopping, Home, My account give errors
4. Standard things not working - Camera, bluetooth, speakerphone on call, the calibaration application always force closes.
Not tried data connection as I dont use it
Can anyone help me out with anyof the above issue or is this something everyone is facing.....
I will continue to use this version instead of WM ...
Thanks

May be tilt related with the calling. I use this as my daily build and haven't experieinced these issue. The rogers apps that are there are only for rogers network users. I had a request to leave them so I did. You can always hide them with the advanced launcher, just drag them to the trash.

About YouTube: when the video starts, go to options and select normal quality
Any devs out there wanna give this a go?
I would love to be able to rotate my phone in any direction and have the screen flip like on my omnia... I know sense doesn't flip to landscape, thats not a prob, what I really want is to be able to flip the phone upside down and still use it as the correct rotation.
Reason I want to be able to do this is so I can use my phone in the cup holder of my car again, and to do this it must be upside down because of the charger placement... (same as on my Omnia)
Seems a pretty simple request, would be nice if it could auto run and run in the background without using up to much resources to.
If anyone is able to do this, would be awesome.
Thanks
Seconded ... but
I too would like to be able to rotate at least the other way; when showing off the Incredible, people rotate to landscape the other way and nothing happens, so they figure it doesn't rotate. I have to say "no turn it the other way" but it would be great to just not have to think about it.
BUT ... regarding the OP ... I simply took a dremel to the dash mount I bought (the beanbag, since California law doesn't allow sticking to the window in the middle). Carved out enough for a charger, and am done with it
I'd also like to see this. Anyone know the reasoning behind only allowing landscape mode by rotating to the left, and not the right? Even my old BB storm could handle rotation in both directions.
Agreed. This would be useful.

I would think it's because the majority of the world is right-handed and by rotating to the left, the optical track button is on the right side. I could complain because I'm left-handed, but hey at least my phone still has a signal when I hold it in my left hand, unlike other phones out there
This is an option in the cyanogen rom available in the rom manager. If you can look past the few bugs in the rom you can enjoy the 360 degree rotation you are looking for.

My phone aint even rooted yet, for some reason I've tried everything and won't allow me to get into adb recovery... anyways, if it's in another rom, it must be possible, if someone could make this an app!! it would be awesome.
Then we wouldn't have limits as to which rom we would have to use.

The Switch Pro widgets do not seem to work. They can show you if something is on (WiFi, GPS, etc.) but when you push the buttons it says it's updating the settings but if you look in settings, nothing has changed. If you use the flashlight option it cannot turn on the LED flash.

Switchpro works fine for me. In fact, I havent had a single issue with my normal apps with 2.3. Not sure whats borked for you? Sounds dumb but uninstall/reinstall fixes lots of apps.
Hmmmmm. That's weird. I uninstalled Switch Pro Widget and reinstalled. I still cannot get the flashlight switch to turn on the LED (I have the Use the camera flash checked), or the GPS and Bluetooth switches to work. The WiFi and AutoRotate ones do work.
Also with Launcher Pro 8.2, can anyone set a custom dock image? When ever I try and choose a custom dock image it takes me to the Gallery where I pick a dock image but when I go back to the home page there is no dock displayed.
NOTE: THIS IS NOT A THREAD TO POST ISSUES WITH THE UPDATE PROCESS, ONLY ISSUES AFTER UPDATING THAT HAVE BEEN CAUSED/FIXED BY THE NEW VERSION.
In an effort to consolidate all the information into one thread, hopefully everyone can just post their own experience with the new Stock Froyo build here after having updated through Kies.
List issues you're experiencing, as well as issues that may have been fixed with this update from the previous version.
Hopefully this will cut back on thread spam and help people decide whether or not they want to try out the stock Froyo 2.2 update!
I'll start it off and say that so far I've heard that the Gallery is working great, but Avatar seems to be having DRM issues. GPS seems to be something where YMMV, some say it's great, some say it's worse.
What have you noticed?
So far all good things.
CONS: missing stock android keyboard, paid apps missing in Market until ROM is recognized.
I installed the GB KB and am good to go as far as that is concerned.
GPS in UVKA 7 still wayyy off for me, definitely a hardware issue.
I have not done any tweaks or change in settings, like a I said wayy off..
Pros (to me at least):
I noticed that the screen auto-rotation is now controllable via the notification/switch pulldown on the home screen.
I don't recall this from before, so please gently correct me if I'm wrong. While entering text, if you hold down on the entry window a blue pointer appears that you can use to place the cursor in the text easier.
Gmail improvements:
- You can reply/forward messages from the top of the email instead of having to scroll all the way to the bottom.
- You can scroll from from email to email by using arrows at the bottom of the window, instead of having to go back into inbox/outbox/etc and selecting the next email
CON: I can't get any data.
Any help?
With regards to the Calendar app, can anyone confirm whether or not you can now actually change the default calendar from My Calendar to Google? Or do you still have to change each new entry to Google when you go to add an entry into the Calendar? That was such a dumb move.... a step backwards from Android via Touch Wiz, heh.
Pros: higher Quadrant score than 2.1
Better UI
Mobile AP
Flash
Camera seems to be better in the dark now
Better battery life
Faster
Cons: No apps in the Market's Download section
Old market
Avatar is not accessible

You are able to set other calendars as the default calendar. I just created a new event and no longer does it default to the lame TouchWiz calendar.

The issue with the gallery lock was always random for me. So far I have had no issues moving in and out of the gallery.
Avatar doesnt launch because the mouny point for the external sd has changes. The drm issue im unsure how to remedy.
Lag is still the same.
Still cant set default home screen.
Changed calendar notifications to white background.
Skype anf yahoo apps should work now.
C2DM works for apps like Trillian (saves a lot of battery)
Will check if the exchange client still rapes battery tomorrow.
Oh, and wifi calling/sms for those of us in very low reception areas.
Data speeds seem incredible. Wifi reception inproved...
Improved txt selection copy and paste. Darker notification bar.

Major problem, the haptic feedback is really really really weak. This happened b4 when i flashed a leaked 2.2 rom and the official one does the same thing -.-, the vibration intensity is at max when ur in the settings and set it to max u get a strong vibration, however when u press any of the 4 bottom buttons and dialer u get really weak vibration, feels like its at the lowest setting. This really annoys me. Does neone know how to fix this or if a rom currently out has alrdy fixed it?

I have had horrible gallery issues, every time I opened it it would freeze. It's great now, but why the hell did they go back to old pics on the top? I want my recent pics on the top.
My gps did not work, but I turned it off, reset it w the gps restore app and now it locks in maps at 30 meters to start instead of 1400 meters. (so, much improved)
Avatar does not work for me, but I updated my co worker's phone, and hers works. wth
I can't look at my display settings, it forces close, I think because I had a bunch of flipfonts installed. I uninstalled them all and it still doesn't work. Any ideas?
ETA: Haptic feedback feels fine to me
I feel the phone is a bit lag too
I want to flash back to JFD and try it from zero again.
BTW I cant root with z4root, how can I root now?
KA6 was the version released through Samsung Kies
Flashed KA7 (screw KA6..). Took awhile to boot up but made it
Gallery seems to be okay, haven't deleted any pics yet. Phone seems as snappy as it did with KA5. Data speed seems the same as well. GPS actually performs better, if not the same as KA5. Just a minute or two to lock on and failry acurate within 30FT (on my way home I was able to lock onto 6-10 sats in a few seconds). Installed GB Keyboard, no issues there. Market udpated itself, apps show up and works just fine.
All in all, works just as good as KA5 did, with maybe some minor improvments.
PS. why is the haptic feedback such a huge issue? OMG MY BUTTONS DON'T VIBRATE WHEN TOUCHED!!

Thanks to the power connector/audio connector being on the top of the phone... I'd like to figure out if theres a way to make this phone flip the screen when you put it in a car dock... any ideas?
i use alarm clock plus and it reorientates the screen for left tilt and right tilt in dock mode, but not upside down. im sure it wouldnt be too hard to figure out.

Yup, 270 degree rotation is a feature of FroYo for this phone. It works on several apps like GPS as well as in the settings menus. I think I remember seeing a line of code somewhere here that allowed you to enable or disable 270 degree rotation so it did not rotate to the right. So maybe enabling 360 degree rotation wouldn't be that hard?

The issue isn't 360 degrees (which would be back to "normal"), it's 180 degrees. The rotation lets you have only 3 rotations: 0 (normal), 90 (right side on bottom) and 270 or -90 (left side on bottom). I guess they thought that nobody would want 180 (top on bottom) for whatever reason.

you're absolutely right, I have no idea what I was thinking? I guess I meant 360 all the way around, to include 180..but that's definitely not what came out.
but I agree, I doubt I would really ever use the 180 degree position, but to have it enabled would be nice. Kind of like an iPad, you can use it no matter which way you pick it up.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab does this also! So if someone wants to work this out it would be pretty awesome

My old(now bricked epic) had full 360 degree rotation, including upside down.
I was running Vision Kernel 1.2(however, I'd recommend trying 1.1 since 1.2 has been causing bricks)
Not sure if it includes it, but i know it was working upside down on mine the other day.

I actually flashed a bunch of kernels in a few days, it may have been Genocide.
I'm running SRF 1.1.
And I only noticed it because I picked up my phone at what I thought was upright position and went to hit the menu button and realized I was pressing where the FFC is.
If I can figure out what combo allowed it, I'll be glad to let you know.
I cant remember, but isnt it a custom launcher function, given youre on froyo?? Idunno... just tried and I cannot, midNight current version w journaling, launcherpro. Maybe ADW launcher??? I know I have had it on a few different setups, but idunno who actually implements it... put it in Q&A with the question in the title... im sure any dev knows...

Custom launcher may be it too, I have never used anything but TW and launcher pro. LP doesn't have this option, that's what I am running and that's what comes with SRF 1.1. I think this option has to be rom based, or maybe it is within the kernel, I do not know.

I use LP Sense UI, but I just tried recreating it and only got 270 degree rotation.
I KNOW I'm not crazy, aha. Hmm, I'm going to take a look at the framework and see if I can't figure out a way to enable it for any ROM.
EDIT: Just remembered my build environment got wiped when I reformatted PC.
Regardless, the file that controls rotation should be in /system/framework.jar, if someone has a build enviroment, they can take a look at the XML.
This is assuming, of course, that Samsung didn't make a crazy change and hide it elsewhere.

I just dug this up from an old thread, is there something similar to this we can do? This is the way to disable 270 degree rotation, and just keep 90 degree (although people in the thread kept calling it 180 degree rotation)

Its not in the framework, its just part of the build.prop file, thats it (sounds wayyy too simple, I know).
So basically just do the opposite, change false to true. Normally I'd use something like "Root Explorer" and edit the build.prop file in the text edit mode.

I just dug this up from an old thread, is there something similar to this we can do? This is the way to disable 270 degree rotation, and just keep 90 degree (although people in the thread kept calling it 180 degree rotation)

From what I can tell, this is for 2.1 only. I looked in our build.prop and this line isn't there, which makes me think it's a part of framework.jar now.
