Guest Vilppe Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 Twice now I've flashed the 8a release but it has never booted automatically, is this required or will the rom work anyway? I added the second OC kernel and changed some apps before flashing.
Guest dadashi Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 (edited) I think from 5a to 8a you might have to do a complete wipe...use titanium backup to backup your apps... Edited February 15, 2011 by dadashi
Guest Blasphemous Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 Is this happening to lots of people? Is it a known issue? Any workaround? This really puts me off upgrading as my contacts are a mixture of +44 and 07! :DFor the second time...... just change the bloody number in contacts to 07. It's not rocket science!
Guest stealthyboss Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 I know why videos wont load from m.youtubee.com its because when you try to play one its linked to standerd vide player you need to link it to youtube app player please fix :D

If you can't be bothered to read the thread then don't be surprised if no one can be bothered to provide you with the answer..... and NO, I'm not interested in the fact that there are 172 pages. If you REALLY want to solve a problem you research and reading this thread has to be the easiest research EVER!
Guest Steveharr Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 For the second time...... just change the bloody number in contacts to 07. It's not rocket science! For the second time..... If you travel abroad often, or phone international numbers this could be a bit annoying to remove the country code. Why not ADD the 07 number to the contact as another number.

Guest Blues003 Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 MMS stopped working again. Had to reboot for them to work. *sigh*
Guest valderis Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 I dont know if it is rom fault or not, but then phone is in silent mode and I receive SMS device doesnt vibrate, then someone calling all ok it vibrates. In setings>vibrate>always Any ideas ?
Guest Carlos Abel Chavez Slim Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 I dont know if it is rom fault or not, but then phone is in silent mode and I receive SMS device doesnt vibrate I have the same problem.
Guest Gerry P Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 Seems to me there are lots of people moaning and complaining about little things in this ROM... They should be quiet - This ROM is FREE and I think it works fantastically well (considerably better than any of the others, and Ive tried 3 different ones). If you dont like it , dont use it. Better still make your own ROM.. Hats of to Fib for the hard work, and stop complaining everyone. Gerry
Guest targetbsp Posted February 15, 2011 Report Posted February 15, 2011 (edited) There are very few things I'd class around here as actually complaining? If everyone was quiet... how would any of the rom devs know what needs fixing? :S I can't speak for any other developer, but as a software developer myself, I'd rather people told me about any issues as opposed to buggering off and using something else! Then I can choose to fix the issue or not as I please. :D Edited February 15, 2011 by targetbsp

Bugs are supposed to be reported, and at no point did I see critics to Fibblesan's abilities or knowledge. If any, the fact we report problems is actually a testament of the trust that we have in him, as to being competent and knowledgeable enough to fix what is still not entirely working.
Guest tomthered Posted February 16, 2011 Report Posted February 16, 2011 This is probably a stupid question but how do you load the Gingerbread theme onto the flb Froyo G2 rom. Have successfully loaded this now just need to know how to up these. Thanks in advance

Have successfully loaded this now just need to know how to up these. Thanks in advance Just flash the file the same way you do the rom (In ClockworkMod). (Install zip from SD and so on).

Better still make your own ROM.. Hats of to Fib for the hard work, and stop complaining everyone. Gerry I don't think anyone here is moaning or complaining in any negative sense. They're reporting issues with the ROM so that the author or any forum member can provide input or even their own fix for those. That's how you make the next release better than the previous one, which is what we all want, even the ROM authors. Try not to look at the comments in such a negative way :D Edited February 16, 2011 by Daimaah
Guest The_Duck Posted February 16, 2011 Report Posted February 16, 2011 As you can read in in his signature in some of his posts: http://www.flibblesan.co.uk/flb-froyo/ - there you can donate something. :-) Done.... with much pleasure. Duck

I may be making assumptions, but I would imagine Flibblesan gets some hobbyist enjoyment from tweaking and perfecting his ROMs, and we get a kind of hobbyist enjoyment from using the latest versions and giving constructive bug reports. Lets face it, anyone could download a much earlier version of this ROM (or MCR or JJ) and be happy that it mostly works fine. So the reasons for Flibblesan to continue working on the ROM, and for us to continue flashing new versions, must be fun.
Guest Baggy Pipes Posted February 16, 2011 Report Posted February 16, 2011 (edited) I dont know if it is rom fault or not, but then phone is in silent mode and I receive SMS device doesnt vibrate, then someone calling all ok it vibrates. In setings>vibrate>always Any ideas ? I have the same problem. Flibblesan has already solved this for me. Here's his solution: SMS app. Vibrate only seems to work fine but it's not as straight forward to set up. Open Mms. Press menu then go to Settings. Scroll to Notification settings. Select ringtone - Silent. Vibrate - Always. This will vibrate the phone when you have a text but won't make a noise. Be aware that you can only change the rington if your phone is not in silent mode.

It's fun in a weird way, although some times it can get pretty frustrating :D Anyway I'll try to get an update up soon.
Guest Gerry P Posted February 16, 2011 Report Posted February 16, 2011 What a polite forum this is - I dont think ive been told to shut up in such a pleasant way before :D Apologies for the previous late night post. I shall watch quietly and eagerly await the next release Hope its all good, Gerry

Guest aaroncarey Posted February 16, 2011 Report Posted February 16, 2011 You should definitely upgrade to flb-8a...5a is older without many of the fixes, the newest release is naturaly the proper one... I'm just a bit nervous because 5a is working perfectly for me... and there seem to be a few issues with 8a? Like contacts not showing up and Listen not downloading and things? Are there any new features or speed improvements I'd notice? Thanks! :D
Guest aaroncarey Posted February 16, 2011 Report Posted February 16, 2011 For the second time...... just change the bloody number in contacts to 07. It's not rocket science! I don't really want to have to change several hundred numbers though.. and then have them not work when I'm abroad..

For answeres to your questions read through the thread.... I don't really want to have to change several hundred numbers though.. and then have them not work when I'm abroad.. use some comon sence :) just add the number "07" to the particular contact, not to several hundred :D ....sorry if you're only 12 :) Edited February 16, 2011 by dadashi

Have not attempted this myself, but I am sure its as simple as that. Then just import again. Edit: I just opened the contacts .vcf file using Notepad++ and it was pretty simple to do a find replace on numbers beginning ' TEL;CELL;PREF:07 ' there's your solution.
