Copy onto SD card. Run the .apk with Astro or similar.

The Facebook site is better than any application !
Not the mobile one (m.facebook.com), but this one: http://touch.facebook.com/?w2m#home.php

I LOVE the new startup screen with the six big icons ! very nice !!

I'm probably being dim, but where does it tell me if I have a new message?

I totally agree with you. I don't understand how it is possible that an app couldnt be better than a website...
Because we have a lot of really skillful developers using Android and Facebook...

my hero is from denmark ans when i click on facebook for android i get the 1.01 app????

The advantage of an app is the ability to have notifications, a web site would not be able to do this.

But I can't see if I have a new message?

Well of course the application needs to have a notifications feature in order to provide notifications
If it doesn't then it may not be any better than the web site... which is the debate here I guess

This is still not out on Market yet... will it be released for download on Market?

Eventually.

[Q] How to install Gmail in in R2.1 ?

Today I went back to 2.1 (data2system LiteXtreme mod for Soft-mod 2.1 20E Final) as my battery was draining rapidly in 2.3.x. Everything looks fine except that there is no Gmail app in this ROM. Market also does not show it. Can somebody point me to Gmail apk.

Try this one http://megaupload.com/?d=nodb6p1q

No, that did not work. Complains about Package parsing error.

For market it downloads itself just register a gmail accoutnt in account and sync.
Sent from my GT540 using XDA App

That was the first thing I did even before posting this question. It does not show up in market place. That is the reason I started looking for apk to install. The first few that I found were all meant for froyo and gingerbread. They don't install correctly on eclair complaining about package parsing error. Then I posted this question hoping someone knows how to do it.

Hi, if you can't post in the proper thread about this version please pm me... here is what you need :
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21630798/Apps/Gmail%20for%20Eclair%202.1.rar
Install both as any other app, DO NOT PUSH TO WHERE SYSTEM APPLICATIONS ARE
Easier way is just drop the .apk's to your sdcard or dropbox and install from there as normal.
As i explained i had to remove many apps and files to make data partition fit in system partition, but if you need a stock app do not doubt in ask me.

Working fine for me
If you are currently using a Stock ROM and have a Synaptics screen you should be fine.
To check what screen you have do the following:
- Dial *#*#2846579#*#*
- Go to projectmenu > veneer information query > apparatus type query
- Check screen type.
Hope this helps!

Can you please send me instructions to backup and update?
Already ahve recovery installed!

No need to backup in ClockworkMod as it will not restore correctly any once you upgrade to 2.3.
- Download 2.3.5 from Here: DOWNLOAD
- Copy the dload folder to the [ROOT] of your SD Card.
- Power on the phone while holding [VOL-] and [VOL+] and [POWER].
- Let it do its thing, and you should then be on 2.3.5
- Follow THIS GUIDE to remove all the bundled apps.
Hope this helps

Just re-install the Apps after you have updated.
Contacts will auto sync back to your phone if you have them linked to your Google Account.

No just re-install apps after update and if your contacts are linked to your Google Account they will auto restore when you re-add your Google Account.
This is an Official Firmware Update so your warranty should not be affected

"Upload Failed" - Trying to upload pictures to Picassa from stock gallery - PA ROM

"Upload Failed" - Trying to upload pictures to Picassa from stock gallery - PA ROM
I'm trying to upload pictures to Picassa using the stock gallery app. However, everytime I try this I've got a "Upload Failed" message and nothing else.
I'm able to see all my albums, and it created the albums in Picassa so I'm not sure what the problem is. I did search online and on xda, and I read about on HC if you were using the same Email for Facebook and Picassa it would have a problem, but I'm using different Emails so I'm pretty sure that wouldn't be the problem.
I'm using the latest PA Rom and pa gapps.
If anyone could shed some light on this, I'd be grateful!

Is this the wrong place to ask this? Or has no-one else tried to upload to Picassa recently?
