Ultimate Droid Froyo eXtreme 8.0.0 - Droid

my yahoo email worked on the stock email app on ud7. Now yahoo will not work on the stock app on ud8. Any suggestions?

I seem to have not included the modified email app stock in this version, but you should be able to download it from the modified apps in the UD settings.
 
Question for any and everyone on this rom: How is BATTERY LIFE?
Im on CM6 and Im getting about 7-8 hrs usage.

On days with some standard usage (several emails/txts, couple calls, occasional web browse but not a lot), I've been able to get over ~24 hrs with it. I likely would have gotten more when I last put it to the test but was about to take a trip and wanted to be sure she was completely full when I left.

Bottom line... it works very well.

How exactlly do you download the modified apps? I clicked on it installed it but the problem still happens


Try this cody:

Restore your advanced nandroid backup of UD 7.0
Make a new andvanced nandroid backup of DATA ONLY (uncheck all boxes except DATA)
back out to the main menu.
Wipe data/clear cache 3 times.
Install 8.0
Restore your backup of Data only.

That should fix your problem.

P.S. This is what i do EVERY upgrade for UD. It restores ALL of my settings, bookmarks, texts, apps, etc. So far it has never failed. I got rid of Titanium and Mybackup long ago.

I'm going to try this out :)
 
Flashed over 7 last night. Got everything set back up today minus a few framework edits and some random apk edits. Smooth process even without using Titanium to backup. Just had to redo my shortcuts and change some icons. Battery life seems pretty good so far. I used bluetooth headset to listen to music on the way to work (1 hour 15 minutes), and was messing with the UD Settings this morning. Still at 80%. That should put me through the entire day which is all I personally need.

I have noticed a serious increase in speed. Maybe not even speed but, the wicked redraw from 7 is completely gone. I was blaming it (and still am) on juice defender but I guess 8 plays more nicely with juice than 7 did.

The rotary lockscreen seems smoother and better put together. I don't know if it even got changed or it was my phone but, it's better x1000

I have noticed I have no access to the Market (network error) or gtalk (network unavailable) but that could be a Google thing. Won't know till I let some time pass and try it again. I do have full bars 3g. (Wondering if I should do the 2.1 trick the market thing.)

Just like in 7, the customizable options are nuts and there's only 1 I have never been able to get to work. No big deal though, just edit the frame and push it back.

Must say, AGAIN, yet another very well put together ROM by BD. I, for one, will not be changing ROM's or downgrading to an earlier version.

One questno though, where did the D2 keyboard go? Seems to have been lost in the shuffle. I'm going to try to put LatinImeGoogle.apk back on and see how it goes.
