[Q] GSB 4.0 and CyanogenMod 7.1.0 - Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been following workshed's GSB thread religiously. I love his rom and was wondering about the CyanogenMod release. I thought GSB was the CyanogenMod release. Can someone help clear up my confusion? Are they the same rom?

The GSB ROM is based on the Cyanogen Mod, but it is not CM. IIRC, Droid Eris isn't even on the list of officially supported devices for Cyanogen. Of course, I haven't checked in a while, so it might actually be on the list now.

It's on the list now...it is not the same as gsb

Thank you. I thought I was losing my mind. I really love GSB 4.0 but I am waiting on a Condemned update to try it out.

Condemned is out. (Title not changed - link on last few pages)
Gsb is waiting fir a rotation bug to get fixed with nightlies I think.

Thanks! I saw that and since there is a rotation bug I figured I would wait till they get that worked out first.

If you didn't see it, condemned soul posted a patch for the rotation issue

Froyo with Flash??

Hello XDA im a eris-aholic and im looking for a froyo rom with flash. So far ive only found 2. 1 roms that have flash but no 2.2's or am i missing something? Pls help!!
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
The only one that I know of is the KaosLegendary v.19 ROM. It's a Wildfire Port, but is very visual rough and still in the alpha phase but flash does really work (probably thing that works really well as of right now). Hope this helps :3
Edit:
The reason for this is that to have Flash 10.1 of the Eris you either need to port it on the back of another 2.2 sense ROM or build it on top of out default 2.1 sense ROM with flash lite. Most (maybe all) other 2.2 ROMs for Dorid Eris are ASOP (cyanogen) which doesn't work well when mixed with the Eris and Flash.

Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
Ok so I'm. Going to assume that install through pc to kaos 37 also wouldn't work well then. Is like to have the best of both worlds but legendary is still alpha and kinda funky atm IMHO. any other input would be great
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
I've had flash running on every 2. 1 sense Rom that I've flashed, but so far no luck with the 2.2 because they are all cyanogen. As of last night or the night before, the htc gratia was ported to the Eris. It's the first "working" 2.2 SENSE Rom for us. Only problem is that its still very very rough.. setup is in Chinese, no WiFi, camera issues, and to turn it off you have to do a battery pull. So, maybe in a few weeks some of our great devs will have that Rom running smoother and reliably, and maybe then, flash will work on it. Even then, there may still be issues =/ we'll see tho! Hope this helps!

Give it a month. It'll have smoothed out by then.

Or a couple of days lol. There's a few versions out now like tenzos and tazz's. Both are already looking very good.
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
IMO Tenzo is on the forefront of making a useable functional 2.2 Sense ROM for our Erii.
+1 for Tenzos 2.2 Sense rom.
So far I've demo'd them both and tenzo is definitely closer to completion even though it still has bugs.... ill probably go with tenzo unless kaos pulls this through quick
And clean

[Q] Best Gingerbread ROM?

So I've been away from XDA for a little bit... (well just not checking it everyday like I used to)... but I was wondering if I could get some peoples opinions on which of the latest Gingerbread ROMs is the best one? I wanna give GB a test run and see if I like it on my Eris but want to get some feedback to see which ROM would be best to test first...
I have CyanogenMOD 7.0.0 RC1 Gingerbread NIGHTLY for the Droid Eris (workshed), and It's really good, one of the best ones out there.
TastyBread! Only saying that cuz that's my gb build lol. There are 3 so far so just flash them all and see which one you would like best!

I think Kaos has a build available as well. I agree you should try each one if your goal is to play around and "test". Give Shed a minute to update his latest release (1.8) by flashing one of the other three available builds, including the above quoted item.
Ginger Tazz 10 /3.3.11/ Stable/Blackened Ginger 2/2/22/11 {cm7} - Offers an interesting looking "Blackened" version as well
[ROM] **TastyBreadBuild v1** (Android 2.3.2)
[GINGERBREAD] KaosGingerbread V8
[ROM] GSB v1.8 | GingerBread 2.3.3 [CM7.0.0 RC1 NIGHTLY][3-3-2011] - my current driver, running 1.7 now and will wait until 1.8 is updated as outlined by Shed in his most recent post.
I vote for ginger Tazz v10 runs fast and strong.

+1 on sheds its been great. Fast, stable.

Workshed's GSB is the bomb!
thanks guys! looks like i'm gonna start with GSB
I'd reccomend turning on the screen effects on launcher pro. They work well on the Eris. I like the one that makes the screen look like flipping walls.

I like all of LP's transition effects, but I settled on "Scale". I hope they will add a "Random" option to change the transition effect between all the options, not in one series of flips, but between flipping sessions.
I agree. gingerbread nightly is a good one
GSB is indeed a great build. I tried all the other roms and nothing is more stable than GSB. Though, I do believe that 1.6 is the most stable and the only version that works with swype for me.

I myself had fallen for the 'Scale' effect in LP. I recently installed Go Launcher EX (can't post you a link, check it out on market.android), I'm liking it...though I seem to be addicted to change, can't keep the same theme/apps for longer than a week. Especially with all the ROM flashing.
And PS, Go Launcher has that 'Random' screen transition option you're looking for. Give it a shot should you feel so inclined. There doesn't seem to be a 'Scale' equivalent, but 'Bulldoze' is an interesting alternative animation. I use the 'Roll' effect right now because it suits my theme.
Sorry to get so far off-topic.
Tazz Gingerbread v10 is beast. I'm not gonna lie.

Thanks! That's one of those apps/launchers that I thought looked interesting way back but it was too early in development. Now that it's matured some, it may be time for me to take a serious look at it.
GSB has been the most stable for me. Tried kaos and Tazz, but had a few issues. GSB has been running strong.
I'm running gsb and its great very smooth and fasy
Sent from my ERIS GSBv2.0 using Tapatalk
I'm happy with GSB, I've never tried GingerTazz but I'm sure it's good too. When they both came out, I just couldn't decided which one to flash.
Workshed had done some cool stuff with DualROM, Tazz had done cool stuff with the FroyoSense rom.
I literally did eenie-meenie-miney-mo to pick between the two. And GSB was what I ended up with just by chance.
I can't judge the different GB roms as I have only just installed GSB about 15 mins ago, but the sheer difference in speed and responsiveness from froyo to GSB is dramatic.

I'm running GSB 2.0 and it's great.
Can anyone put a post together with the diferences between each of the GB ROMS?

XDA App

RE: Sorry mods just saw someone else made similar thread earlier in General in reference to GSB. U can remove this if needed
I have several other Android devices for dev and play purposes but mainly just my Eris, which is my primary, I have lots of problems with XDA FCs and not loading the server correctly. Does anyone else have this issue? Or have an idea why. It really doesn't matter which ROM. I'm using either. I don't have premium yet, every time I go to upgrade I'm broke but definitely gonna upgrade. But that shouldn't affect it.

Which rom are you running? I've had no issues using the XDA app with KaosFroyo v39 & GSB v3.5 & 3.6, but I saw that another user is having issues while running GSB 3.7??
Well now I'm running TheROM latest update no problem but various others including GSB various versions, Gin-sen-tazz, MacROM, I've been flashing a lot and even after JIT enabled for a while I get slow XDA. Not so much the past couple days on TheROM

Nothing wrong with "plain CM7", but Birgertime's version is hardly a knockoff. If it weren't for him, we'd still be using mute/unmute on calls in CM7 and GPS would still not work. Many of his fixes have been rolled back into the official CM7 for Vibrant.

check cyanognemod.com forums for the device, and see what people are saying about it.
however, since you posted this in the vibrant themes and apps section your chances of getting an answer go down... significantly
if you really want to you can go through the change log http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=cdma_shadow
or go through all of the cdma_shadow commits on gerrit http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#q,st...yanogenMod/android_device_motorola_shadow,n,z

actually the gps fix was done by karl hegbloom, Roman pulled the commit and put it into his build after Atin passed on it (there is more to the story and some more tweaking was done by all parties)

No intention of knocking any of the other Dev's here at all. In most cases that "I've" seen, ROMS built off of CM7 which already has issues of its own, tend to have more issues than not. I haven't tried any other GB ROM other than CM7 so I don't have any experience with them. I do know CM7 has worked perfectly for me so far, and I do know most of the problems encountered are from the end users.
Cheers
EDIT: Is phiremod even Birgertime's ROM? It's also built off of CM7 #74.

[Q] Codename Android MoPho Browser bug help?

Im using Codename android 2.0.0
When i rotate the screen while in browser, it force closes. It also does this when i try to select something while it is loading. I've tried installing multiple browsers and it happens to each one.
maybe its a kernel problem?(kernel version 2.6.32.58-MB855-CM9-g5bd1732)
ive been searching all day to a fix for this
This is an issue with every CM9 based rom. I've had some success with Firefox Beta. I keep multiple past versions on my SD card because each rom I flash seems to work differently with each browser. Jokersax did just release a version of his unofficial cm9 build that has a rotation fix if you'd like to try that:
http://www.jokersax.com/developer-pages/jokersax/cyanogenmod9-photon/
It's the one called special 0.7.0.0.
