Like rats jumping ship!! What makes you guys think im not set up to do another build? I updated the last time the system image was updated thank you very much. Actually, Ive updated twice since that, but thats besides the point. lol

I see how it is.

You don't pay enough attention to us Reef!

Seriously tho, I'll take over the next release and create a new thread. I'm done with people complaining about how big this thread is. Thanks for your work Reef, we'll still do work together - I'll just be the schmo managing the updates to the masses

I honestly thought FRX and gingerbread were basically different teams attempting to use Android in different ways. What's the point in them being separate now, then?

Wow... I really do not know what you're talking about, I think you're really confused about how development works in relation to XDAndroid. Please visit our website http://xdandroid.com sometime, you'll learn something!

I know of most of the people in here you are one of the more capable of taking care of yourself arrrghhh lol

There are people answering questions, and you're all running the latest FRX version of android, so I don't see where I fell behind, and why everyone is complaining. Almost 2mil views, countless TBs of downloading for about a year now, and no thanks. Literally and Metaphorically. LMAO

A lot of it may be that with Glemsom's autobuild service down, none of the newer kernel improvements like working kbd backlight, improved 2d graphics speed, or working extUSB headset have made it into a build yet. The first page which is accurate as of the last build 2 months ago and the lack of notices from the update utility that a lot of people are now relying on thanks to your collaboration with sovereign, make people think there hasn't been any progress since.

I agree with that F22. My brother had my Rhodium up until about 2 weeks ago he was using it. I didnt even notice that the autobuild service was down until last night when I was reading up messing with FRX03 with arrrghhh to get blazn back up to speed. (or try again)

I will update the package manually for the update tool as soon as i reset my server password and can successfully log in again. lol

I have been slacking, but honestly I didnt think you guys missed me that much (and i didn't have my Rhod as arrrghhh mentioned before). You guys have arrrghhh and f22 obviously checking into this thread often they are both at LEAST as smart as I am.

There have been 22 commits to the kernel since Glemsom's last kernel on Dec. 4th. So yeah, the kernel devs have been busy. BTW, it's good to hear that a new blazn release is in the works, that will make a lot of people happy. Your blazn build has a lot of fans.

Sounds good.

Flattery will get you everywhere.

But more seriously, it sounds like you're still interested in maintaining the xdandroid builds. The only question is if you still have the time/interest to continue maintaining the first post/faq as well? It would be helpful if Arrrghhh could edit those, particularly if you're going to continue being scarce. That's why I was encouraging him to start a new thread. Nevertheless I know you guys talk, so I'll let you two work that out.

Yeah...actually I have done quite a bit of reading with that site. There's not really any explanation of the breakdown of things here and why they're separated out. It points out the one main thread (which reefer has so OBVIOUSLY neglected. LOL j/k). Nothing about any of the other "competing" builds.

I wonder if maybe you've just been involved so long and have had part in so many aspects that you possibly don't see how convoluted it is to a newb like myself.

Oh it's very convoluted, I won't deny that.

But we only document XDAndroid builds - we'll never document 'competing' builds as you say. That would be way too complex.

However, all of the AOSP builds for XDAndroid all go back to the same dev team. So Eclair, Froyo, and soon GingerBread - the 'reference' vanilla versions - are all from the same dev team. Which mainly consists of stinebd (at least for the system image, which is what we're talking about.)

I just don't see why you assumed the FRX(whatever) was different from the GingerBread AOSP work.

Unless of course you are in fact talking about other builds - for example, Neopeek released an 'alpha' build of Gingerbread already. That is not XDAndroid, and again we won't document anything about their builds - that would be utter madness!

love it. can't wait til camera and video officially starts working.

Actually, that little diatribe explained QUITE a bit. Thanks! Neopeek is one that I saw mentioned often, and probably made some assumptions.

My camera's working without issue.

Glad to hear it... there is a lot of confusing and sometimes conflicting information out there - I do my best to set the record straight

I think he means that the code has not been committed - which it has not. The cam code is not in the main GIT tree yet. Plus, video doesn't work at all.

Is this an older version of voice search installed on here? i tried to install voice actions, and it will not work, the voice search with this build doesnt seem to have the same features.

Are you on FRX03? It's 2.2.1, so it's got the newest voice actions to that version of Android...

Not sure if there's some new ones in GingerBread (2.3) or not - those would obviously not be included.

stinebd · Jan 22, 2011

Hi all, we've got a new release for you tonight.

No it's not Gingerbread

XDAndroid 2.2.1 Build FRX04 is out now.

It includes 3D improvements from [acl], as well as synchronizing the minor changes from the upstream Android froyo branch. System image and OTA package are both available from the above link.

Thanks!

Update - this is if you have a clean FRX03 system image. You can download it, rename it to update.zip, and drop it where you run haret.exe - it'll update Android for you.

System image - the full FRX04 system image. Delete old system.ext2, replace with this image - rename to system.ext2.

Rootfs - update you'll need as well. rootfs.img is what you need to rename it to. Remove your old rootfs and replace with the new one.

in other words if i just update system.ext2 and rootfs on a fresh install i dont need update
