sooooo
since we have had root for weeks now... and theres custom roms starting there way onto the eris..
has anyone... or can someone put together a 2.0.1 or a 2.1 vanilla rom?.
...
I have already asked this question... No one has ported 2.0.1 to the Eris and There is really no point in doing so. There is only Cupcake[1.5] and Ecliar[2.1] available to the Eris as of now.

We can't really do it until we have the 2.1 kernel source code or we successfully fix everything we have on the older kernel used for eris's 1.5
As far as a theme, its a work in progress. Mostly because, i'm working on it. I"ll post it if I get anything done.
This is as close as we have so far, thanks to GrdLock:

So I have been running V2 of the 2.1 Leak (the OTA one) for a little bit now, but before that I had been running the very first 2.1 leak, my question is...Will it will brick my phone if I flash GrdLock's eris21official-root.zip since I have had BOTH versions of the 2.1 Leak?
Any help and advice is very much appreciated in advance!
PS- I am new to XDA (as a user) but I have been silently following all of the dev's hard work for some time now and I must say THANK YOU DEVS!

if you are not rooted, you cannot flash any ROMs. this has been said a million times. if you are rooted, flashing to a new ROM will not hurt you as when you flash you are wiping the phone to whatever that ROM is. i have flashed over 100 times and no issues.

Thank you. Not sure if you are familiar with GrdLock's ROM website but on there under his ROMs it states clearly below eris21official-root.zip this; "Root ROM based on 2.1 leak v2"
I am running 2.1 leak v2, but I am not sure if the fact that I ran the original 2.1 leak will negatively effect me if I flash eris21official-root.zip.
I believe I misunderstood the whole "Root ROM based on 2.1 leak v2" - is that meaning the ROM is simply a mirror of the 2.1 leak v2 and not actually a root for the 2.1 leak v2?

If you are on leak, cannot go to any ROM. Plain and simple. There is no root atm for leak. V1 or V2. His ROM that you are speaking of is the V2 leak WITH root.

I'm sorry you feel this way. I do apologize for posting in the wrong section; if a mod feels it's necessary, go ahead and move it to the correct section.
Although for referring to me as a "stray animal" I don't see what I did wrong. My question was quite specific, although it was not needed. My misunderstanding fueled my need to get on here and ask. Again, I am sorry.
stop being so rude
Everyone stop being so rude, he asked a question. Since i guess he didn't know he just asked. But to answer your question: If you upgraded your Eris with the "Leaked 2.1" PB00IMG.zip and the post/website didn't say "With root" then that means you are stuck on the 2.1 leak and you have to wait for someone to come up with a solution to get root for that. But if you upgraded to the PB00IMG.zip with "Root" then you can just go to TheUnlockr.com and search "how to load Custom roms on Droid Eris" and just follow the instructions there.

Umm. This will likely be a longer port than a day or so The N1 is a different resolution, and we need to get drivers sorted.
Maybe it will be done some time, but people are only just starting work on this

If you go in the CDMA Hero forum, you can see that there is yet a port of froyo. Sorry for my english
But are the drivers the same as the ones from 2.1 roms

and (correct me if wrong), but sources will eventually / soon hit the Android git's, and it's easier to build that stuff from source than trying to modify a ROM that's build for a way different device.
Not that it can't be done... but I think a lot of devs are still busy playing with kernels and optimized sense leaks, instead of trying hard to mod a Nexus-Froyo ROM, only to have sources available the moment you're done .
Froyo can run on the .29 kernel, so the drivers shouldn't be a problem.

I will QDL back to 305 and back to streakdroid 1.8.1 later.

I am going to be very cautious it seems this is too new
Im digging around...
Steven Hyde is confirming he is using parts of 341 on his new unreleased 1.9
and 1.5ghz kernel could make it back.
I must go so I will try it later and post tonight if it works for you post your impressions.
I am going to try and extract newer stage ui and use with 1.8.1. will post later.
There is already a thread started from Broken in the general-section about this Build! You don´t need to discover the dangers and benefits, this work is already been done!

Opened this one because it appears to be a newer build but i could be wrong.
But if it is the same its cool.
I can not root this for some reason. still messing with it.
It is too slow anyways so I will restore to 1.8.1
Steven Hyde is working with this anyways so ill wait for his cool stuff to be released

My CDMA Evo3d is rooted and I'm wondering what rom would be the most like the HTC factory stock Rom that is updated with the most recent OTA updates? I've been trying to wait for Cyanogen but I don't want to try an alpha or even a beta version (not because I'm scared or anything, I just want everything pretty much in working order and I'm fairly happy with the stock experience except for not being able to update.)

Oh, I appreciate that suggestion and I will 2nd it! It is the ROM I run myself!
Heres a direct link: [ROM] joeykrim-original-1.2.0 Odex *Stock Rooted 2.08.651.2*
My goal was the same as yours, keep the experiece identical to stock with the addition of root and busybox and a few other small developer linux binaries in the /system/xbin directory. the additions I made will not impact the performance of Android at all as they are never used, unless the user specifically requests them.
Hope that helps and appreciate the support!
This one was available within hours of us getting s-off and is what I've been using. No issues and had been rock solid for me.

^^^^^
that ROM is not the most up to date. Yes it's 2.3.4, but Joey's has the recent updates from a week ago.

The updates from about a week ago were merely application updates that were safe to take OTA. I updated OTA so, although that ROM doesn't have them cooked in, I am up to date.
Ok just got a vibrant from a friend at work and it was stuck with a phone to pc icon, think he uplugged it while trying to update it, anyway I put it in download mode and used odin to flash it back to stock 2.1 eclair, rooted it and put recovery on it. My question is can I flash a ics rom right from 2.1 or is there a step I need to do in between, dont have experience with flashing roms on this phone, I dont want to get stuck in a bootloop and start all over.

Woodrube has a guide up (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1464423), and there are a few other threads on it.
Quick synopsis is to flash the Gingerbread bootloaders, ensure voodoo is disabled (shouldn't be there from what you've said you've done) but read through the guide. It's a lot easier than it used to be, but since you're significantly changing the filesystem it's better to be safe than sorry.
Thanks for the nod Kaiser.
Rob, if you have any questions, please ask. Best not to have a borked phone.

+1, Listen to Woody's advice in his guide, he's smart, he's my hero! :victory:
Thanks guys especially woodrub your guides really helped out, I installed the gingerbread
bootloaders, then cm7 which was tricky at first cause it was bootlooping but your guide told me it was normal to just reflash in blue recovery, then I flashed ics passion Rom, all is running great thanks again

Not Knockin It, Not Knocking It at all....
but Passion is a little outdated. There's more up to date options out there, CM9, SlimICS, (ahem) ICZen, all more up to date and running off android 4.0.4, passion is on 4.0.3, there were a lot of source patches from google, bugfixes, in 4.0.4.
At any rate, glad you got 'er up without issue.

Really give a look at ICZen. I'm sure if you read enough around here you'll find that most people default to that when they aren't trying a new release.
Also keep in mind that kernels play a big role in the performance of ICS ROMs; a whole lot more than they did with Froyo, in my opinion. Devil and Sub-Zero are probably the best ones out from my experience.
