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
So since the froyo update we can finally do webcam to pc video calling the only problem seems with the yahoo app is you have to hold the epic sideways to be normal on the other end which then makes you the person your chatting with sideways on the phone.
Anyone know a way to fix this?

i am having this same issue and i noticed its the same thing on the 2.2 version on the galaxy tab so its not a bug with the pre release version. I think it must be a compatibility issue with the galaxy devices and yahoo video chat. When i am video chatting my Epic has to be upside down for them to see me right then i see them sideways. This sucks
Try Droidcam- it's in the market- it has a fix for this. Definitely works with Skype and flash-based webcam clients like chatroulette. Don't see why it wouldn't work with Yahoo.
Can you use Droidcam over 4G? because it seems like it's just a wifi cam app. BTW the new yahoo update has made the sideways thing even more annoying. They added landscape support which automatically rotates your video feed which means now you are ALWAYS sideways.
I have the same problem as well. Voice is also slow through wifi and 3g. However, the image coming from the phone has great quality but sideways.
Update on this
I emailed them about this now and got a response and also included and idea to allow mobile users to rotate their webcam in case it's not right-side up. Here's the response in case anyone is interested:
"Hello AndroidIsEpic,
Thank you for writing to Yahoo! Mobile.
Before I go into addressing your concern, I'd like to first apologize
for the delay in my responding to your inquiry. We are committed to
answering your questions as quickly and accurately as possible. However,
we are currently receiving unusually high volumes which caused the
delayed response.
If I understand your inquiry correctly, you would like to be able to
rotate the webcam with Yahoo! Messenger on your mobile device. Thanks
for your suggestion of a new feature for Yahoo! Messenger.
AndroidIsEpic, the current version of Yahoo! Messenger doesn't have this
feature, but we appreciate that you took the time to tell us about what
you'd like to see in a future version. I'll pass your suggestion on to
the Yahoo! Messenger Product Team, and they will put it under
consideration for a future release. Please understand that our
development cycles can be quite lengthy, so your suggestion isn't likely
to be added right away if the development team does decide to include
it.
In case you have another suggestion in the future, we created some
special customer feedback pages to make it easy for you tell us about
it. Suggestions entered through these feedback pages are regularly
reviewed by the Messenger Product Team. If you use Yahoo! Messenger 8.1

heya,
I've got the new 2.3.4 update for my Nexus One, and it seems that there's absolutely no voice or video support in chat.
Other people on the forum seem to have confirmed this as well:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061270&page=2
It seems like a pretty lousy move from Google.
On their blog post:
http://googlemobile.blogspot.com/2011/04/video-chat-on-your-android-phone.html
they specifically mention that Google Talk with video and voice chat will will launch on other devices in the future.
I can understand there not being video on the Nexus One, as there's no front-facing camera (although they could still support it, just with the rear camera...lol), but it seems like a pretty low move to leave the Nexus One in the dust like that with voice as well.
Does anybody know if this is perhaps a bug in the Nexus One update, or perhaps you need to do something to unlock the voice functionality?
Cheers,
Victor
Strange, because with just the normal gtalk app installed on my nexus one (2.3.3 CM7), i'm able to at least voice chat. A pretty lame move if it doesn't allow voice and video.
Seriously, no voice and no video. Google needs to just make a universal gtalk app and put it in the market. Oh well at least there are better alternatives on the market that work now like tango and yahoo messenger.
Has anyone tried manually adding the new talk/jingle lib? I doesn't seem like its included in the update. See here for a link/how to. I would start by copying JUST the lib (second to the last line)
Google just isn't going to bring video chat to phones without a FFC (they said so in the announcement which was pretty clear to me). It offers a pretty bad experience for the average user. Voice chat is certainly possible and there's no reason to not allow it. Hopefully they fix this in a future update and hopefully put chat in the market so they can update it more often.
Just use the app and lib from the Nexus S update. Problem solved.
I agree though that they should at least allow Voice Chat. The only reason I can think of for not doing it would be that it competes with Google Voice but considering that's only available in 2 countries in the world it's hardly what I'd call "widely available".

Yes, the slightly modified Talk2.apk and lib from the thread that we both linked to above works on the N1. There is no reason to only copy the lib as it would be useless without the apk since there is nothing in the old apk actually loading the lib and calling the functions it provides.
I wish I could say I used the Talk app and I cared about this... but I can't.
Yes! Who cares about gtalk I want bug fixes!!!

Cool! Do the 'other' things that didnt work in 2.3.3 work? Like being able to initiate a voice/video call from the pc? Or sending video?
Gapps 20110503 fixes everything. I can send video AND the other user can call me. Awesome!
CM7 nightly #60.
heya,
Hmm, interesting - so you're saying if I just install the gapps 20110503 package, I'll get Gtalk with voice/video support?
Do you mean the one from here?
http://goo-inside.me/gapps/
I'm on stock Android, and I'd like to stay that way for now. This package doesn't have any dependencies on CyanogenMod, does it? And it's not going to cause any other weirdness or breakages if I install that package, is it?
I thought that package was just the stock GoogleApps package that's split off as a separate download due to licensing restrictions - what difference is it to the one that's one my Nexus One 2.3.4 now?
Cheers,
Victor
I'm pretty sure you need to be rooted. I'm running CM7 nightly #60.
So that means that the hardware is capable of video chat for sure. we should write to google and ask the nexus team to give it to us, the official way!
It is 100% capable. Confirmed working on my N1.

I'm running a stock, rooted 2.3.4 OTA on my Nexus One and while it works, its only working on WiFi. Anyone else have this problem?
It says I need to be connected to WiFi to initiate a voice/video call. If someone else tries to initiate it, it'll tell me I missed a call because I wasn't on WiFi.
A buddy of mine has the Desire and its working fine on their 3G connection.
works fine here
works here too

I get the 'wifi required' message sometimes, but other times it works great.
Probably needs a good 3G/3.5G connection.
Edit: check out the topic for a wifi optional version
For those of you that want to video chat with gmail, but don't want to wait for 2.3.4...
Vtok is in the market. It works pretty well on the Evo, but one of the weird things is: the application has a blank screen if none of your contacts (that can video chat) are logged in. You do not get a list of people that aren't logged in, and you don't get a list of people that are logged in but haven't updated to the latest google video chat.
I used it over 3g to test with my wife using her laptop, it worked well, pretty clear, but a slight delay. Check it out.
I tried this app. It's nice to see development but emphasis on the word beta at the moment.
Meh. Pretty cool. Wish I had more people to use this with though.
Does this thing use push notifications ? I refuse to use an IM app that doesn't. It's just unacceptable by today's standards.
I tried this over my home wifi, with my laptop and my EVO.
The image I saw on my laptop was good from what the phone was recording.
But my phone was receiving a horrible pixelated image from my laptop, which has a decent web camera.
Also my the image was upside down no matter which way I help my phone in portrait, but was fine in landscape.
i am on latest leaked sprint gingerbread...but can't find this in my market. I haven't had problems in the past, has this been pulled?

Wow. that was quick, thanks!
... I must be doing something wrong. i am getting a "This item is not compatible with this device" error when i try to click on the install button from the android market on my computer. ...does this mean my phone is registering as w/ a carrier other than sprint?? is there anyway to correct my problem?
**EDIT: just noticed i have OS 2.3.3 but running market version 2.3.4 ...i wonder if this has anything to do with my compatibility issues?
As we all know Gingerbread has been in the oven... And I was one of those people who could not wait for it to cool off. As soon as I saw the leak early saturday morning, I was already downloading. what could go wrong, right? I odin'd the ef02.tar, started her up and wow, she's beautiful, save the extra ugly 4g symbol in the window sill (notification bar) that looks even worse now than previous desserts.
Keep in mind this is a stock .tar. No root. No cwm. No nothing. Except bloat. Low and behold my beautiful lil girl had a very serious functionality flaw. After my first reboot, no more incoming phone calls :^(...
So I've tried everything, I gained root, installed cwm 3.1.0.1 wiped data, cache, dalvik multiple times. Re odin'd the .tar. Flashed Decad3nce's odexed and deodexed roms. Updated modems. Tried frozen on ec05, took a shot at simply AOSP, odin'd a stock ec05, even went all the way back to eb13, with cwm 2.5 (changing file systems when needed) now I'm back to a bone stock ec05 from the stickies in development... Still no incoming phone calls. I called sprint technical and they were unable to resolve the issue.
Funny thing is I can make calls, I have data (3&4g), I can text, just won't receive.
Has anybody else seen anything remotely close to this. If so please comment, if not, comment anyways. I wanna get some opinions on my situation.
P.S. feel free to laugh at my short comings, lord knows just thinking about it brings chuckles to my mind...

You know, i did install google voice. But ive installed it multiple times until now, so i figured it was unrelated. But this past time it did take my texts through there, which had never happened before. thats why i uninstalled it. Im gonna check that out and see if it fixes it. Good luck with your issues.
Sounds like you clicked yes to Sprint integration (ports your number temporarily to google). So they go to your google voice account, however you can check an option to have them sent also to your phone as well (although if you do this with google voice installed you will probably get 2 notifications per 1 sms). Also call screening is an option that is enabled by default, option in google voice (desktop web interface). I had to turn that off too (the press 1 thing). Hope this helps, its just options. Also you could go online and disable the integration and go back to normal.
EDIT: Also make sure your phone is listed to receive calls in the web interface (via a desktop). I know it should do this by default but maybe it didn't for god knows what reason?

I had disabled it, it just took a bit. but its all working again Thanks so much man.
I remember when I did that... Sat there for an hour pulling out my hair before I realized I needed to click the number on the right side of the GoogleVoice Page to change the settings. Not my proudest moment.
Yea, I think if multiple people on smart enough to flash a rom get confused I think google needs to make thinks a bit easier to understand. Glad I could help.
The GV set up options really suck. i already have a gv number and always have to go into the desktop voice application and disable the integration.

I just came back from the sprint store, and none of there techs could give me anything in depth about google voice. They just said it was beta and somewhat "finneky" however my phone works perfect now. I had to use a pc at the store while I was warranting my samsung dock (fyi don't use desk dock with any charger other than tge one provided)
