Official FRF84B Froyo Issues, Changes, Solutions Thread

[erikfig]

So far so good, busy box was a piece of cake. Now, what it so special about this release? I don't see that much difference from the previous one. Can someone explain?

 

[Droidfish]

Don't know if everybody's figured this out yet but droidlight is working on this release.

 

[erikfig]

Any good themes yet??

Multitouch keyboard force close for me......

Initial Observations:
First of all, I'm super stoked the LV kernel worked for me. I've tried every LV kernel I could get my hands on and none of them worked. Imagine my surprise when my droid didn't get stuck on the M. Woot!!

Im relieved they got rid of the "rolly" animation for the apps drawer in the stock launcher. That thing was annoying and it took uneeded FPS from the UI. The UI itself seems snappy enough, although I'm sure ADW or Launcher PRO will work TOPS with this build.

Marketplace is not working (2.2 thing) Team Chaos has a market fix that tricks the marketplace into thinking the build is 2.1 by changing certain keys in the build.prop file. I'll try the fix later after class.

I'll configure the UI later on tonight and mess around with it more, but for now I've gotta back it up and go back to my normal build and head to class. So far, it's impressive.

Have somebody try disable the android keyboard and try to work only with the multitouch?

 

[erikfig]

I did it with Swype, you can disable the android one an you will be good.

 

[dodgersrgood]

it seems the update all button in the market isnt working right. they download fine but then it says in the notif bar that the install was unsuccessful. happened to me 2 different times

So far so good, busy box was a piece of cake. Now, what it so special about this release? I don't see that much difference from the previous one. Can someone explain?

the stock launcher seems to be a bit different. it has the same look but when pressed it isnt the 3d launcher. its just the regular version sorta

 

[Vulcan1600]

I hope the next titanium update allows "restore all to sd card" feature. Cause this clicking them and moving to sd is tedious.

Market..slow.

I can't recommend Titanium Backup Pro enough, it will do batch for you and it's the best investment in a droid app I've made to date.

Is anyone else seeing that the home screen does not auto rotate when the Droid is held in landscape position? All other apps rotate better but note the launcher home.
