[Q] Help-Darktremors Apps2SD - Epic 4G General

Hello, I am currently using Quantum Rom 2.0 but I switch all the time. I have flashed the dt a2sd and when I try to run it, it always fails. After searching the actual thread about this I see that some mods have to be done to the kernel to get it to work on Epic 4g. Also I see that the creator of ViperRom has gotten it to work. Can anyone explain to me what needs to be done to enable this to run on mine, and any rom? What needs to be there/changed/ and how? Thank you

I'm not certain that it works properly on ViperRom. I and a couple others were not able to run it properly, but for some reason could not get any answers in the thread. I don't think anyone has it properly implemented in their Froyo roms yet.

You also need to wait. Before you know it we are going to have roms flowing out our ears. I am working as hard as I can to learn how to make kickass roms so hopefully I can release something good soon
Actually, after doing all the above, I was kinda looking for other things to do I am loving the tethering though. Thought there would be a place for apps that are not in the market.
im having the same problem. i dont know what to do with my phone while waiting for everyne makes awesome custom roms. im just waiting to figure out how to get it fully optimized with everything thats already ready for it

Get a development environment setup and write some apps! Download the GSM Kernel and learn how to compile and tune it (use Teknologic's changelog as a guide perhaps) and prepare for the eventual release of the CDMA Kernel (or even the 2.0 Kernel...what? I can dream!)! It's fun to prepare for such things and test!
Thanks Much!

Chuckhriczko, please keep up your 'good' work!
I used your instructions for rooting my hero, a little confusing but helped me to better understand linux procedures.
jjjjayd13,
Lets try to get Google maps with nav on the hero. They got it working in the Dream forum with some directions. Let me get my backup ready......
Where can i find more themes? I did the clear one and its ok, but not much to it. Also what is so special about modaco rom other than u can save apps to sd
go try out droid explorer and desktop sms...you can get desktop sms stand alone, or it comes as part of droid explorer...both took about 5 seconds to get working and work perfectly.
This is the thread I started about it

if you don't have the market, you probably forgot to/need to re-flash the google apps zip.
aside from that...you should be hanging out here -> Evo Forum
Start by looking at the [noob guide] and these FAQs.
Any other problems/questions search around in the Evo Q&A or General sub-topics and you should find what you need

I have the BlueAnt S4 and it cannot voice dial, says it needs Andriod 2.2 . Looks like the Hero will not get that from Sprint/Google, so will a rooted phone with 2.2 be able to make blutooth voice dial ? Thanks, Ted O.
Yeah a rooted 2.2 should work just fine with ur headset. I don't see why your headset isn't working fine now to be honest.
sent from my hero aosp2.2 cause aospcm7 2.3 was not as fast or stable for me.

BlueAnt states that, for the S4, andriod 2.2 is required to do voice dialing.

JIT enabled Dalvik, yall see this?

Hey all,
I was looking through the Hero GSM forums and I saw this from the G1 forums:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=637419
Apparently it JIT enables you Dalvik VM, if I understand them correctly. I'm on Darchstar's AOSP 2.1 so I tried it. My results are below:
MFlops (tested using Linpack from the Market):
Before - 2.19
After - 3.48
Seems interesting I suppose.
if you check the Darchstar 2.1 thread you will see that most of us are running JIT now. I experienced a huge amount of increased performance, (tested with CaffeineMark from market)
I recommend this to anyone.
I tried this on Flipz 2.1, and basically it made my phone lock up when sliding down the unlock screen at boot.
I had every command execute successfully except I couldn't "unmount /system"
Any ideas as to what I might have done wrong?
Also, can this be done for ANY rom, or just the 2.1 roms?
Has anyone got this going on a 2.0 ROM? I'm still running darchstar's 2.0.1 ROM but wouldn't mind enabling JIT if it's doable.
I hadn't seen the instructions on the first post, these are the ones I followed and couldn't get to work...but others did, and I DO know that most on darchstar's rom have it up and running. I tried on flipz 2.1 and had issues, but it could have been just me I DID do one line at a time, and also had to do an ADB remount in there too.

I followed these instructions and it worked great on AOSP 2.1. I haven't tried it on flipz 2.1 though. Basically, all that is needed is the libdvm.so file and a line added to the build.prop file.

What ROM was this for? Darchstar's or Flipz?
I DID see that it at least requires a hacked 1.6 ROM or any of the 2.1 ROMs

It was in Darchstar's AOSP 2.1 thread and works fine on that ROM. I saw you were trying to enable it on flipz 2.1 without any luck so I thought I'd share the instructions I used for the AOSP 2.1 ROM. I'm curious to know if it works for flipz 2.1 ROM though.

I'll give it a shot tonight when I get home from work. Those instructions that I followed unsuccessfully were assuming you were using FASTTEST, which is where the discovery was first found. Obviously, neither Darchstar or Flipz rom are using that, so I guess I was doomed for failure
I'll report back when I know!

It's "umount /system" and that wouldn't cause the installation to fail. I tried this as well and had the same issue. I'm assuming that this will not work in Flipz 2.1.

Ah, you are correct! I must have read that wrong. Thanks for pointing that out. Also, I didn't think it would cause it to fail, so I'm glad you got the same result. Did you follow the FASTTEST instructions, or the ones mentioned in post 1480 mentioned earlier? I haven't looked closely at those, so I don't know if they differ at all.
Do we think it's because the flipz from is based (portions at least) on 2.0.1 rather than 2.1?
I may be totally wrong on that last part, but was thinking that for some reason.
Ran 15 tests through linpack before installing JIT, average came out to 2.389, installed JIT ran 15 more tests average went up to 3.620, now thats a boost if I've seen one yet.

FWIW. Those are the instructions I used on darchstar 2.1 and it worked perfectly.

2.1 Root

Hi all.
I noticed that the Eris 2.1 is running kernel 2.6.29-5. Can someone confirm this? I have not installed it yet and probably wont have a free second to do so until Saturday.
Also if that is the kernel version then would the Tattoo exploit work?
(p.s. It really stinks that the root status thread got closed and Acid jumped ship and I really hope everyone has not given up)

Has anyone tried the exit_notify() CAP_KILL Verification Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability?
I'm sure HTC left a hole unpatched somewhere.. let's find it guys!
I installed leaked 2.1
Kernel Ver:
2.6.29-5cf233c2
How would one go about attempting this process? just curious I would like to take a shot at it if it is within any kind of reasonable/safe reach.
@Drew, we need a file to be set to 1 or 2 (Don't remember which one). It is set to 0. Sorry!

[KITCHEN] Basic ROM kitchen for new Eris cooks [PC/Mac]

Hi guys,
Lately I have been developing a kitchen to help ordinary people learn how to build their own ROM on HTC-based Android devices. It allows you to do basic things such as rooting a shipped ROM, adding apps2sd, modifying the task killer memory threshold, etc.
Today I added some settings to make it work for the Droid Eris, but I am unable to test it, as I don't have an Eris.
Here is the link to the kitchen:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246
Please try it out if you can, and let me know if it works
Before flashing any ROM from the kitchen, please make a Nandroid backup first of your existing ROM!
Thank you, and enjoy!
I will cook a rom with your kitchen and test it on my Eris. Thank you for your work.
Will update with results.
UPDATE!
kitchen mostly works, the roms build and they flash onto the phone. had a few problems with setting task management, then tried option 14 and 15 with a few errors as well, so i just skipped that and just did a very basic rom build. so the core of the kitchen works and you can build roms, the issues i am having could be with my setup or it could be that DSIXDA was unable to test it before releasing, but for an untested kitchen it is FANTASTIC!

what from the first two posts made you think this?
because i was reading that with this we can make a rom that doesnt belong on our phone and make it to where it can go on our phone. soo if we get a rom that can be over clocked will that work
Thank you!! Of course I am damned by the leak but I feel a root coming on and this will really come in handy...

I don't believe you would be able to make a ROM that have the capabilities to OC. With all these current ROMS that have been made by competent cooks, yet none of them OC. But hey, you might be able to and prove me wrong. Which I do hope you can. But I have read from a few forums that OC is not that possible.
We don't have the source for 2.1 for our phone. When we do then OC'ing will be possible. That won't be released until hopefully with or shortly after official 2.1 OTA is released from Verizon.
Thanks!
Probably won't be cooking as much as fiddling with ROMs to suit my own ideals of them, but this seems like it might open the doors to a lot more people.
Just tried porting the DarchDroid ROM:

From the base of this:
eris21official-root.zip: http://www.multiupload.com/YP1BIUOF60
Everything was successful and I got a signed ROM, but it wouldn't boot. Just got stuck on splash. Tried doing logcat too but nothing showed up.

Please make sure you can flash an actual Eris ROM before you start work on porting roms from other devices. Let me know how that works out.

Yesterday there wasn't any Droid Eris support, that's why it wasn't working yesterday. I had to modify the kernel build command a bit for the Eris. Actually, now that I think about it, the code from yesterday should still work, as it correctly figured out the kernel's base address.
I'll dig into it a bit more...

Basically the kernel's physical base address and the WiFi module. There are a few minor things as well. I did not port an Eris ROM myself when I had the Hero, but this is what people have told me.

thanks!
Have you tried obtaining the Java package with the sudo command? Unfortunately I have not tried the 64 bit method, nor have I been asked about it before. If you find a way please let us know.
If you guys are still having problems with the cooked ROM not booting, then I'll ask some of the experienced Eris cooks around here for help.

I will try cooking a new ROM right now. No porting or anything, just a cooked ROM from the original 2.1 root with some apps removed so I know it is different.
Updating in a few...
I'm working on a ROM right now using your kitchen. I just recently came across your kitchen while searching the forums. I am using version v0.38 and I'm assuming eris support is on v0.39, correct? Should I just extract the the files into the same directory that I have been using for v0.38?
I'll let you know when I sign and try to flash if it works. Thanks for taking the time to do this.

Note that this is intended for testing purposes. Code is not clean yet and may contain undiscovered bugs. If you use Android for your everyday activity make a backup of all your files before trying. I'm helping with testing on my second SD card but I'll wait for it to get committed into "mainline" kernel before I switch to my "everyday" system.

Hi, Spige,
When you mention camera working, does that mean including the 5Mpix?
3MP works fine for me with (almost) latest viruscrazy kernel, but I haven't been able to get 5MP working, did you?
If you're ahead of the others, please keep us informed of exact android build / modules, etc you're using!
Cheers,

Instructions are clear, as Eodun mentioned, if you get stuck somewhere specific, post and we'll help you out, of course!
Maybe one important thing to add:
I noticed you're using an eclair build, I personally never got camera working on the couple eclair builds that I tried. (nor proper headset detection, which was a dealbreaker)
Maybe someone can confirm if camera is even possible at all on eclair, before aladin keeps on trying with his (which specific?) build?
Cheers,
