I remember my first rom... Android 2.1 Sense. Complete with custom cookie theme (done completely by me). Good times, good times. I will download and look around, it's been ages since a new rom has been introduced for the Eris. Oh and BTW... Use multiupload.com instead of megaupload. It's preferred around here.

First off, congrats. There's nothing that provides you an opportunity to learn like putting your feet in the fire.

A little OT, but since you mentioned it - if you are using VirtualBox 4 (maybe even VB 3.2), you might want to add the Oracle VirtualBox Extension Pack - it mucks around with the synthetic EHCI controller that the guest VM machine sees. I just went through this the other day - I migrated all my VMs from VB 3.2.x to 4.0.4 for exactly this reason - USB access.
It's a little bit quirky, but what seems to happen is that if you add "Filters" to the VM, then any time the VM is running, when you plug the device into the host machine, it passes that USB device immediately to the guest. (I was doing exactly the same thing as you - flip-flopping between the host (Windows) and the guest VM, whenever I needed device access. Now I can do everything right from the guest).
All this magic happens after VirtualBox drivers are installed in the host machine, and guest extensions are installed into the client machine. (The latter seems kind of tricky for Ubuntu guest VMs - I had to copy the Guest Additions ".iso" file out of the C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox folder to the VM, and then loopback mount the .iso file to get access to the installer program ("autorun.sh").) In any event, don't forget to reboot both the guest VM and the host OS to get all this stuff stabilized.
bftb0
PS Just as an FYI, it works but there is a performance hit - I measured some big USB file transfers directly to the host OS and also to the guest VM - the VM passthrough is only about 1/3rd the speed of the native USB interface.

Cool beans, I will try it out. downloading now but will probably install sometime tomorrow. thx for taking the time to make us another rom to play with

No problem, let me know what you think when you get done with it tomorrow. Only problem I noticed is when you go to settings>cyanogenmod settings>cpu options (or something like that) I get a FC every time. Trying to fix it but i'm confused lol.

It's ok man i'm not that worried about it, if people want to change cpu settings on this rom they can just download setcpu. This was just a test rom pretty much anyway, just wanted to see if I could do it before I started on a CM7 build.

Congrats on your 1st and hopefully many more to come! I'll give her a go and let you know what I think.

Nice work!
Just a question, not that it matters much. The default clock on the home screen is a certain size (small), but if you add a new one via widgets menu, it's a huge clock. Is it suppose to be like that, or is this just a minot detail to be worked out later?
It seems I am an idiot. I can't figure out what Extended Drawer is actually doing.. :\

I'm always up for testing new versions, though it might be less stressful to hold off and release a fixed version (as much as I hate waiting).
If you do decide to release a version that doesn't have everything working, you might want to note that in the file name.
Example: mssmison_rogers_system_(MARKET_NOT_WORKING).img
That way there is no excuse for ridiculous whining and complaining.
I'm quite happy you came back mssmison. I'm also glad that you noted you were taking off some tonight so I didn't sit up all night anxiously awaiting the new great release.
Would it be a simple deal of switching the system files to download an app from market and then switch back, or is it more than just the system file and would you have to delete widgets to go back and forth? If I just had to change out system files to get a market app no problem, or find the .apk to download and install it.
Does that mean flash and the differen't profiles to choose for your screens and perspectives? Maybe a list of what it does have working would be easier, or just figure it out ourselves when it's released. I'm quite excited
Thanks for all your work
First I'd like to thank you for all your hard work and dedication. I haved used many build's before yours and all are good to their own part. I am having trouble with Android the last couple of days, I cannot receive calls but am able to call out. Any Idea what may be the problem. I was using vilords build and had this same problem, tried yours to see if it could be fixed. Thank you again and good luck with your future builds, I will be looking forward to testing them.
hey just wanted to give a heads up not sure if anyone else is experiencing this but the calendar will not load for me everytime i try to load it the app crashes.

Unfortunatly no, the rogers builds only work with data.img that are created by them. The builds are quite different.

i'd like to test the hero if you need. i've wanted to see the sense ui for a long time. i keep checking to see if you posted it yet. i'm excited. can you install programs from the .apk's?
Umm, im using your new build and just for fun, i tried marketplace...it seems to work for me, I downloaded shopsavvy and successfully installed it.
I however, used my old data file.
Maybe I'm lucky

[Work In Progress] WiFi CALLING [T-Mobile US Only][Devs Only]

Lets get Wifi Calling working on the HD2!
I have attached the T-mobile Wifi Calling APK and a logcat of me turning on and then off the wifi calling feature using the app. The app itself installs just fine and locates and connects to my wifi network, but it never connects to the wifi calling service.
I don't need a bunch of people telling me how much they need this to work for them, I need Devs that are smarter than I figuring out how to make this work for everyone.
Here is a link to the Nexus One thread where they have this working!

I am running the latest CM6.1 Nightllies from Michyprima
im not a dev or anything but ive heard people say they got it working with the glacier build from meedjay but it could be a romur try out the build and see if it works.

Edit: ill try the build out and check and see if it works when i get home
Not a dev either, but seems like you can start by putting the lib files in the kineto-n1-bundle.zip on your build and modifying your build.prop to call those lib files (using the included build.prop in the zip file as an example).
I'll give it a try and post results later.
Edit: well, that didn't work for me. Will keep trying, but hopefully someone who knows what they're doing will get it to work.
Edit2: after reading some more, seems this has to be part of the kernel first. So we would need a dev to look into this. Maybe Mdeejay could help out

Yeah, i was thinking that its the kernel, because they did have to edit the kernel for the Nexus in order to have the app working.
Would be nice if either Hastarin or MDJ help us out here.. Would be highly appreciated

Warning to everyone installing this app!
After having it installed on my phone for around 3 or 4 days my battery was dying very very fast. I had no clue why. Today I pulled up my battery usage info and it told me that this application was using 35% of the battery. Now that I've uninstalled it my CPU seems the be running at a normal speed and not killing my battery anymore.

Guys I'd love to help but there is only one of me, and only so many hours in the day.
At a glance this is based on the CM experimental kernel and ours is a LONG way from that, so not sure how possible it would be to port anyway.

[GPL][DEV-Kernel][WIP] 2.6.35 for desirec (DEAD?)

I'm no longer working on this. I've tried, failed, and moved on. It seems that some other folks have had some success. Maybe they will continue on. Between work, family, college, etc. it's obvious that I'm getting nothing done on this.
This is an attempt at taking the work being done for the heroc here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=911828 and porting it to the Eris.
Honestly, I know enough to be dangerous and that's about it. The HeroC (sobe and those thanked in the post linked to above) folks and those upstream from there are doing most of the work. So, thank you to them.
If anyone would like to help, please do. That's the main reason that I'm posting this now. The kernel doesn't even compile at this point, much less boot. (It's hard to boot something that doesn't exist. )
Source: https://github.com/gnarlyc/cm-kernel
So far, here's what I've done.
1) forked sobe's repo
2) copied the heroc board files, renamed the copies to *desirec*, and changed all instances of HEROC to DESIREC and heroc to desirec inside the files
3) started removing heroc touchscreen stuff and adding desirec touchscreen stuff
Why am I doing this?
1) learn more about kernels
2) use some that programming knowledge that I'm supposedly learning in class
3) get an updated kernel for the Eris
very nice, i do wish you luck.
Very good. Glad to see you working on this.

For those who don't follow the front page news, the Heroc 2.6.35 Kernel is now good enough to be considered a Release Candidate. Same link as in first post.

Any work still going on n with this?
This is what we would need to port over the new Hero Sensable Gingerbread right? Man if we could get this working, I would be about the happiest guy in the world
My final exam is on Wednesday of next week. So, I can promise that I will put much more effort into after that. I can't promise to get it working, but I'll definitely put a lot more time in. As I said before, if anyone wants to jump in and help, feel free. There's already one other person (breber) helping, but I think he's been in the same boat as me. So... Hopefully, he'll be able to help more after classes are over too.
Kernel updates are pretty much the only updates I ever care about.
Just an update. This hasn't been worked on as much as I hoped. However, I've had help from breber. Actually, he's made much more progress than I did. The kernel not only compiles, but it boots too! As soon as we can get the touchscreen working, it might even be usable.
Here's the current source.

If anyone else wants to take a stab at it, feel free. Our time is somewhat limited.
I've played around with adding the capella 3602 stuff back in, but it didn't seem to help with the touchscreen issue. The TS is one of the few components that are different between the HeroC and Eris.

Just an update. This hasn't been worked on as much as I hoped. However, I've had help from breber. Actually, he's made much more progress than I did. The kernel not only compiles, but it boots too! As soon as we can get the touchscreen working, it might even be usable.
Here's the current source.

[ROM] NYMERIAN ROM and!... Nymeriasense updated 8-23

NYMERIASENSE...
http://www.multiupload.com/LOADKH92DO
SENSE ROM IS BASED OFF TH3ORYS CL3ANTH3ORY 1.2 .
REMOVED A LOT OF APPS AND WIDGETS, CHECK IT OUT FLASH ADDICTS.
ALL BELOW RELATES TO AOSP ROM, LABELED NYMERIA 1.6 ON MULTIUPLOAD
NEW ROM OUT AGAIN, DAY I GET HOME FROM VACATION. BUILT OFF SLAYHERS CM7 RELEASE, 1.6.1
LOTS OF MINOR FIXES A FEW CLEAN UPS, SAME BASIC IDEA
sound is loud, flash works out of the box, gps and wifi are fine
the thanks dont change much; i couldnt do it without all people below and more.
extra thanks to droid theory again for answering stupid questions from a stupid person
nerozehls 2.6 dream kernel is baked in
some of theorys ram tweak
same theme
new market
a few extra apps to keep it stable and functioning
most of below still applies. enjoy the rom guys! feedback, bugs, etc.; please list so i can work on it! going on vacation in two days so no new release for at least a week. it will be nice to not flash a rom 10 times a day for once
THIS IS AN AOSP ROM!!!
I use the 704 radio; it works for me. If it doesn't for you, oh well, try another. (NOT 100% FUNCTIONAL, IM CURRENTLY EXPERIMENTING WITH ALL RADIOS
Thanks to DroidTh3ory. and Slayher for the 2.3.5 build
and again. and again and again. and again and again and again.
and thanks to the cyangenmod team, and chingy for the radio, jcase for everything. slayher, imoseyon, viperboy and nerozhel
and all the other developers I dont know but helped get us everything we have and the ones I've failed to mention by name.
thanks to fixxxer2008 for some theme images and ideas
same to zhp pilot, and debian dog
droid pirate for icons
bp328i for theme help.
And DroidTh3ory again, and slayher, and nero, to be thorough
This is more designed for me than a community, but am sharing in case it fits anothers fancy
So its AOSP.
I removed most live wall papers. I dont use them
moved maps and terminal and to data/app, and added a few like youtube, titanium back up, and google sky map (people dont pay enough attention to the stars; heres your chance)
its themed out the wazoo. i spent the most time on that and thats where most of the contributions also come in. its blue, cyan, black, and a lot of high res icons
build.prop is slightly tweaked, memory management is all DroidTh3orys work, I dont know enough about it all to alter and keep it all working
I highly recommend using ADW EX. its simply amazing.
So far the only 'issue' I see is that the battery meter won't animate/move while charging. I need a beer so bad that I'm not working on that any further today.
Feedback and "Thanks" are appreciated, but all real credit and such go to DroidTh3ory. Any questions, fill the thread.
Mirror it if you'd like, but I doubt that many will be clogging up the servers.
enjoy!

Nice icons, thanks for another offering here.
Nice. Any chance that someone can start a thread on how to create your own ROM. What tools to use, what to read and how to properly ask for help. I would love to create my own as well since as soon as I install any rom i liposuction the bloat out add better apps and utilities.
I always remove these from AOSP roms:

i wish i would have had one these.. its more of a 100 thread process. but not that hard. tedious to start. i use the android kitchen to put it all together. 7zip to really get into the files. gimp or pixlr to alter images, and search for a lot of icon packs and such. it'd be a long thread with a lot of detail, lot of links, lot of screenshots. check out the android kitchen first is my suggestion
I hear that phrase thrown around alot "android kitchen". What is it and how do I go about using it?

Think I figured it out.
Thanks for the awesome rom!!

Thanks for posting the rom. I'm going to give it a shot and play around with it some later. I'm just now beginning to learn the ins and outs, and inside outs, of roms, and doing some theming. I just wanted to congratulate you on building a beautiful rom, and THANKS for taking a few minutes to answer some questions. That's how a lot of us get started.
lets keep this rom alive!

[ANDROID] How to Install Gingerbread 2.3.5 on HP Touchpad - Touchdroid Build

Big happenings recently in the Touchpad realm. Touchdroid, one of the groups who was developing Android for the HP Touchpad, has decided to release a dump of their build, along with instructions on how to install it. I have recorded my own installation in hopes that others might benefit from it.
Two things:
1. Please follow the steps listed here http://touch-droid.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2
2. Be aware that this is not the Cyanogenmod version, and there are a few items that are not quite working yet.
Here is the link to the video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhWVmMYquYY
Happy Flashing!
Now, the usual disclaimer: If this bricks your Touchpad.... bummer, dude.
Also, I am aware that an amazing build will eventually be released from Cyanogen. I am excited about this. The touchdroid build is just to tinker with.
:::UPDATE:::
If you want to uninstall this, here is a video explaining how:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKRp3ldtAjU
agreed. Even if their devteam is knowledgeable I will not install their port because of the logs I've read.
Craig
This is the beginning of it all...^^ Android is damn near now... thx!
Please keep in mind that this build is incomplete and buggy. That being the case, this is only recommended to those that care less about the source (we already know all about that) and more about tinkering with it. Use it if you like, but keep the arguments out. Thanks.
Interesting, although its VERY incomplete. I can only surmise that this is a "just to get it out there" kind of thing.

The comments on the video are already entertaining.
People, if you don't have any idea what this is, where it comes from, or why it's being posted..... DON'T INSTALL IT!!!!
If some idiot (me ) puts a video on the intertubes, it does NOT mean that you need to follow it. Watch it, learn from it, but if you don't like the outcome.....DON'T INSTALL IT!!!!!
Also, I total get why people bail from giving even the smallest amount of help to others. Nobody asked me to do this video, I just saw a need for it and made it. And... I'll do it again once cyanogen's stuff comes out for it.
Haters gonna hate, I guess.

How did you go back to previous screen without back button?
Also does anyone know if once the CM version is released the flashing process might be a little easier for the average user? I am not too comfortable with entering commands everywhere. reverend made it look easy because he was obviously familiar with entering command prompts. Either way I will be attempting it, just thought I would ask.

CM's release will be soon enough and will be fool proof. Unless you're reasonably familiar with the Linux terminal and ADB you're probably better off waiting. There's not much properly working on this version. You'll install it, play for ten minutes and them have to go back to waiting for a proper release. This is pre-alpha.

you can see he shot over adb commands
after have following the drama, around the stolen/lost code, I really think people should stop there personal [mod edit], and focus on getting android to the tp. As I see it this, android dump, is touchdrods way of saing: We [mod edit] up, and we are sorry. I also understand that they are stopping the project. So lets all stop the flaming, and wait for the CM, or another teams build! Just my 5 cents
Whats the point of tinkering with the Touchdroid build when the team has disbanded. I would stay away from this build since the CyanogenMod seems to be way ahead of the Touchdroid team anyways.

issent the point, that other teams can see touchdrods build, and use what they can from it. Like small twinks and stuff like that.
So, I'm going to try to bring this thread back on topic so,
for those of you still navigating using adb or whatever, Button Savior works great. Download it, adb install it.
Has anyone tried to install the back and home buttons from an app on the market yet?
Edit: I see button saviour works, niceeee
