Froyo Release Thread

[fearmychickens]

Was anyone able to get Launcher Pro beta after installing 2.2? Every time I download and install it I can't find it. Is it compatible with 2.2?

Got it to work after a reboot. 2.2 is nice. Thanks devs!

Just wanted to chime in and give thanks to all the dev's who worked hard on this, froyo is running perfect for me and ADW launcher just makes it better, great job guy's keep it up.

I found a fix for the laggy flash scrolling! Simply type about:debug then click on settings and enable light touch. That should fix it! Posting a thread on this later.

Thought id share!

Ps I can't find that market fix! Please help!

Anyone see where my corporate calendar went??? LOL...guess they decided I did not need it!

From what I have read, the Corp Calender is now incorporated into the standard calender (merged the two) with Android 2.2...

Hey guys, fantastic ROM! Couple of issues I've noticed so far and hoping for a resolution...

I've had this ROM on here for a few hours and Market is unbelieveably slow. No lie, opening Market, searching for an App, and telling it to download takes 5 minutes.

Also, Maps and a few other applications refuse to install. I did delete Maps in /system/app/ and tried to redownload and it's still not working.

Lastly, downloaded the 1250mHz kernel and SetCPU only clocks to 1100. Is there an issue with the 1250 kernel, SetCPU, or did the 1250 kernel get hosted as the 1100mHz?

Hopefully there are others seeing these issues too. Any testing that needs done, please let me know. I know adb and I'm not a n00b to Andorid like some of the others on here (regardless of my low post count

)

Thanks!

1. Known. Try the update.zip from Mechcondrid. It made the Market much faster for me.

2. Known. No fix as of now.

3. Known.

Thanks very much! And I taskiller'd the Market and it seems ok now even though I did that before.

Also, Wireless Tether from the Market isn't working. Which one would I need to install from the Google Code page? Will the one for the Droid work since my Droid is on Froyo now?

Has anyone noticed whether any of the kernels run cooler than others? The 800 mhz kernel is running a lot hotter than bekits 800 mhz kernel on bugless beast.

P3Droid 1.3 Kernal is on my phone and on the charger - 93.2F

Which one is that? the 1.25 reports as 1.1 in setCPU for me.

Looks that way; my calendar has stuff on it from both my google and my corporate accounts.

Nice!

Never noticed this before, but when making a call and the Droid's in its desk-dock, it automatically goes into speakerphone.

Hmm...I've been watching battery use, and Android System seems to be sending a lot of data...has anyone else noticed this?

Everything Working!

Just FYI for those who are nervous about trying this ROM...
Wiped data/cache (3x). Flashed ROM using SPRecovery Nandroid, then immediately flashed Kernel using update.zip (also SPR). I thought I was using the 1GHz Kernel, but it ended up being the 1.2GHz (previously have not been able to get my Droid to accept over 1.0GHz Kernel). I am afraid of cooking my phone so I downloaded the Kernel again from a different link and reinstalled the 1.0GHz Kernel (SPR update.zip). EVERYTHING was very slow and kept getting strange errors and force closes from odd things like the news and weather app. I let the thing just sit and work itself out for about an hour while I ate dinner. when I came back EVERYTHING had been restored, Contacts, All APPS with Settings intact. I installed Flash, configured SetCPU, and set Launcher Pro as default again... then began testing... Everything works now! Market, Browser, WiFi, Flash, WiFi Tether! Ran Quadrant and hit 1253!!!
Just prior to this I was running UD NE 1.4.5 @ 1.0GHz and only got 603 on Quadrant.
Make sure to download everything ahead of time, READ and follow directions, take your time, and give the thing time to finish its restore... once it is finished, this thing FLIES! (runs about 5 degrees C warmer than UD NE 1.4.5 did, still stays around 30-35 has not gone above 43 Celcius)

most likely that was all of your apps downloading after install.... or is it still doing it after a full install of all your apps and a reboot?
