Guest Adilson Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 This is for DJ Steve himself: how to bake my own build? I am a fairly experienced Linux admin/developer (I work for Canonical, of Ubuntu fame) with extensive knowledge of embedded devices but know next to nothing about Android. I would like to get my hands dirty and wondering if I could grab the sources of your build and generate a customized image myself. TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can try enabling SCREENLOCK (Settings\Location & Security\Set UP Screenlock). That worked for one of my buddies when he had an issue with the swipe to unlock sticking.

Guest extrememonkey Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Has anyone found a workaround to get Skype running properly on 2.2 v1??? It loads up and logs in fine but force closes when you hit my info!!!! I was using it on a couple of the beta releases and had no problems what so ever....

Guest Cue_32 Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Can anyone confirm that Fring front facing camera is working for them? I finally got it on my Marketplace with the Release 1 but after testing Fring this weekend, the camera doesn't work. I just wanna know if it's my device or if others are having this problem.

Guest JaysFreaky Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Well, turns out the issue was somehow my fault. I flashed V1 of Steve's update and it works fine, so somehow, the update.zips I'm building is killing wifi and auto-rotate, but I'm only adding a bootanimation.zip, build.prop and some of my apps installed by default. Doesn't make the slightest bit of sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just need to sort Skype out and then get them to add video calling capability.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest RichB93 Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 (edited) So from all the good reports it sounds like this is really well polished! Good work :) What else still needs a bit of work though? I'm usually all up for trying betas but have held off on this. Itching to try it however :) Edited October 18, 2010 by RichB93 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another user advised me to recalibrate my screen which worked. I did the calibration by booting holding down the volume buttons and then selecting calibration from the following menu.

Guest JaysFreaky Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 I think there's a maximum file size for build.prop.. The only thing I'm changing though, is the LCD density, the region and the way the dates are displayed. It's the same file I'm using now. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bostonguy Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Just to be clear. I don't mind the red on grey in the notification bar. That's fine. I just have difficulty reading the red on black notification which is on the screen for a couple of seconds when an event happens. Here's a screenshot to show you what I mean.. I have reduced the side of the picture to roughly the size of a Streak's physical size so you can see what I mean... (image removed to save rain forests) Not a major issue at all. :) :) +1 Love, love, love the latest build, except for the red text when a notification first comes in, and that the BT icon is not as visible (looks like it's "embossed" rather than being a different color) as v2 was. Very small issues, and to some just personal taste, but to my 46 y/o fading eyesight, they stand out. (pun intended) :) Great work overall though, my Streak feels faster than my Nexus did at times.
