How to Question.

Kaos - I'm going to do something here. I'm going to run this rom from here on out. :) I had it since v1. v2 now makes calls, does facebook, does xda app, texts, does my nfl app, and emails. I'm going to run it as my rom through all the coming versions.

Did you flash over v38 froyo? Wipe? Realize this rom is in early stages of development but like many others, want to get involved and use it. Can you provide the steps taken to load Gingerbread.

I did both. A fresh wipe and then install works fine, but right now the market app is not showing on gingerbread for me. So, I then nand restored my v38 kaosfroyo and did a no wipe flash from it. It saved about half my apps but still no market.
The main apps I use are there though. Except for twitter... I am trying to find a fix for twitter.

so just come on over from kaos froyo v38 with no wipe. Like kaos said, this isn't as smooth as it will be in time and has hiccups. But, I just want the fun of staying with it since the beginning. Plus, if you ever were in a pinch you can just go back to a backup of v38 for a few hours or a day.

This is awesome, I'll have to follow your directions so I can have at least some of my apps.

Be aware that while it DOES makes calls, you can't talk :p I don't have the mic working yet.

Saintdice - I can't get titanium or a few other advanced programs to work yet since busy box and super user are not running. If you have file explorer you can find some apk's with it, but so far of the 2 I could find I couldn't install them yet. I think once we get super user permissions it may help?

Awesome. Can someone make a flashable amon RA zip? For the keyboard that is.

    If you like my rom, think about donating to my coffee fund. :)

    I've not abandoned anything guys, I'm trying to get the Fascinate rolling like I did for the Eris. They didn't have any custom roms at all, now they do.

    Like I said on my twitter, I'm compiling the CM7 frameworks for the Eris right now. It just takes a bit.

    Hi kaos,

    The lead article on XDA by : Captainkrtek states that you are working diligently on it and fixing bugs and not to send you a bug report because" You know what is and is not working"

    Well I would have to say , not correct. He states :

    # Working OpenGL
    # Wifi
    # Bluetooth
    # In-call microphone
    # Audio
    # Notification Lights
    # Sensors working(Ambient, rotation, etc)
    # Data/Radio.


    I would beg to differ:

    he's got a bunch of BS here about the rom that we all already knew or actually isn't true, so I'm saving space.

    OpenGL is working, as in, it runs. It can always be improved from "working" to "what to be expected." But then again, this is an ALPHA you arrogant prick. If you don't understand that basic fact, then stop using this rom and go back to stock. You shouldn't be root on a machine if you aren't aware of basic things with software releases.

    Bluetooth is working just fine for me. This is using it for either a headset or headphones. Maybe it's a bad flash. Have you tried reflashing it? Maybe your phone's actual hardware is being buggy in a way that's unique to it. That's always a possibility. I haven't seen any other reports of what you're saying. Again, this is an ALPHA, and not for every day "this is absolutely perfect" use. To quote Kaos
    Basically its for playing with only! Don't expect it to work, be fast, or be useful for any reason.

    Some apps won't run fully. Many will force close. This is because the rom is an alpha. You'll notice that I brought that point up a lot. That's because it answers every one of your points you felt like bringing up. We're aware of the issues. That's why Kaos is telling people not to file bug reports yet. He knows it's not perfect. We're not acting like it is. It's still an alpha, so we expect it to have a lot of flaws(which are dropping in numbers dramatically each release).

    last points: it's free, you don't have to run it if you don't want to, stop being an ass over stuff we already knew about. Phrasing and tone in a comment can change dramatically how people take it.

    (bad day at work + condescending noobs = rant. I trimmed this down from the super long post it would have been.)

    Hey guys, quick update for ya. I broke my tree a few days ago trying to merge some stuff. Got it sorted out last night. I've got the cm7 frameworks all built up for Eris so if it boots we should have cm7 enhancements here soon.

    Patience guys :)

    Its supposedly a faster OS, this means the Eris might get a tad bit smoother, and better battery life.... :)

    Only time will tell at this point. Right now, it basically boots, and you can navigate around a bit. :)
