Then I don't think you did it right

How did you install this?

I did the Recovery way. But I didn't wipe data first. I just did that :-)

mjh68

awesome news about the wifi. I love this theme, but needed my wifi. Is the fix going to be an update.zip ?

Fabolous

I'm sorry...I may have spoke too soon about the wifi. This is pissing me off.

mjh68

It is frustrating, sometimes it works after a reboot then bam stops working again .

Fabolous

It used to be, if I connected, then forgot the network, it was immediately broken.

I got it to the point where I could forget the network, reenter the password, forget it again, etc. over and over again without breaking the wifi.

But then, after a factory reset, just stuck at scanning...

markc2

Same here, this was my first rom on this "like new replacement" and it's working great, I don't want to try 1.1 this one works too well.

crackdroid1

NIIIICE!!! Youda man! Oh..wait...forgot to read the rest of the thread...I'm sorry its giving you so much trouble Fab.

DROID does UltimateDroid 3.0.1

jeffjano

Is NexFro using Petes Bugless Beast Froyo release or just a froyo release??

crackdroid1

Correct me if i'm wrong, but I believe that right now, it is just a froyo release (frf57, if i'm not mistaken)

jeffjano

Thanks.

I really hope Fab makes a new NexBeast using Pete's Rom. Or we can get a nextheme for Petes new Rom. I tested his rom last night once i was finally able to get it downloaded and its the fastest most stable froyo rom i have used so far. Just needs themeing.

Knitewulf

He was on his way home from a trip last night. You should expect BB to be themed some time this weekend probably. Maybe even tonight.

awesome....2 things....
1) battery seems to be reporting in 20% increments, don't know if that's been mentioned yet...

2) in the new music player, how do you get the album art?

Fab are you planning on making a rom off of the new BB?

one4u2nv

Is anyone else having trouble getting to some apps in the market. I can't seem to make it find LogMeIn.

Also is there something you have to do to make the market sync your apps after a reinstall? Mine has never done that and I have switched (and reinstalled) 2.2 ROMs multiple times.

Please forgive me if these have already been discussed.

gonzoguy24

Is the nandroid updated??? I want to install without wiping data...can I do this with a .zip?

Opps, meant to post this here, but accidentally posted it in the BB thread. So I'm just pasting it here:

Sorry if it's already been asked, I don't have time to read the whole thread right now. But has anyone installed this NexFro and just restored their data (using CW or SPR) with no issues? That's how I updated from the original 2.2 leak to FRF57 and didn't have a prob, so I'm assuming it won't be a prob with this, but want to be sure before I try.

Also, are their any other kernels available for 2.2 besides the ones listed in the OP here? I'm running the 1.1 GHz (labeled 1.25 GHz) and battery life has tanked from Chevy's 1.1 LV kernel I was running with NexBeast 1.0.1 (2.1) before I installed Froyo. So I would like to use Chevys' kernels if possible.

Thanks!

Just to make you aware this isnt based off of petes bugless beast rom. so its not nexbeast. this seems to be a rom Fab put together based off the 2.2 base rom

PhilosoRaptor

Opps, typo on my part. I knew that, was just thinking of NexBeast since that's what I was running before 2.2.

jeffjano

i thought it was at first. i am patiently awaiting the nexbeast froyo

gonzoguy24

Ahh how do you not wipe data with update.zip? I thought that was just nandroid advanced restore...do i just skip the wipe data/cache when rom manager asks?

Deadpocketss

When I go to the 'Allow update.zip Installation' nothing happens. I have it saved on the SD card renamed to update.zip, any help?

gonzoguy24

or do i just restore data from my backup???

gonzoguy24

you have to allow update.zip then you have to install...next option down

jeffjano

after you hit allow update.zip you need to select install update.zip

also make sure you filename isnt REALLY update.zip.zip...that will make it not work

Jeffery

You have to "Allow update.zip Installation" first and then go to the line below it and execute the Update.zip...

Hope this helps

Deadpocketss

Okay, did that. Rebooted phone and now it gets to the red DROID eye thing, loads for a minute, then freezes. Then it does the DROID lettering again and repeats.

jeffjano

you need to wipe data/cache

gonzoguy24

hold x and hope you get back into recovery

Deadpocketss

Thanks, it works now.

Sorry, I'm new to this whole root/ROM thing.

jeffjano

No problem. We all were at 1 point in time. Places like this help us all out.

gonzoguy24

okay well i wiped data and cache...installed update.zip...and am in the process of restoring data...we'll see what happens...

EDIT:Crossing my fingers that i do not get an endless bootloop...
UPDATE: IT WORKED!!! I do not know how well service is etc etc as I have no service here but I will update later...everything seems fast!!!

ahhh missed it, thanks...makes it a little difficult to manage battery, but i'll deal, lol.

tom108

there are a lot of battery widgets you could use. the one that i found most useful is Switch Pro Widget. it looks like the stock power control widget but you can assign the buttons to do different options and one of them is a battery meter.

here is an image from the developer.

Redflea

Well, my heaphone plug is going south, so I'm going to call VZW and request a replacement droid today. Maybe I'll get lucky and get a refurb that a) is fully functional, and b) will run froyo w/out me having to be so freakin' careful about reboots.

Back on your NexFro, fab...amazingly (for me) I was able to try out Pete's BB Froyo (looking for wireless), and then was able to come back to your ROM (looking for coolest, since wifi was no-go on BB as well).

tom108

i am running petes rom now and the wifi works everywhere even if i forget the connection and resign it. wifi must just be crazy on froyo.

crackdroid1

That's weird because when I installed vanilla FRF57, WiFi works better than ESE81(2.1)...

flyguide83

I'm on the stock kernel and everything is working. I have not tried to forget WiFi and reconnect. because I'm on it all the time.
Biggest thing I'm getting is very poor battery life. Like 4 hrs per charge and that's with lite use.. its worse than when I was using chevyno1 back in the day with a 1. 2 oc.. I would get at least 6out of that with heavy-duty usage.. am I alone on the battery issue? if so, ill reflash. But I did everything correctly by Tue book. Didn't even restore using any kind of backup.

gotwillk

Fab, how in the heck did you get 1700 in Quadrant in that one screenshot??

shoadelf

I'm not able to connect to wifi either. Do you think it has something to do with the C_01.43.01P baseband? Cause it used work for me when I only had the C_01.41.00R baseband.
Currently running NexFro 1.0.1, included kernel and C_01.43.01P.

one4u2nv

Shouldn't have anything to do with it. I'm still on C_01.41.00R and my WiFi is out too. Funny thing is that it worked the first time I flashed to this ROM. I changed to Pete's release then reverted back and now it doesn't work anymore.

GideonX

Has nothing to do with baseband. I've flashed numerous ones and it doesn't change one bit.

Btw, still on BB Froyo and wifi is definitely working. Logged on at two different offices now without a problem.

bfulton

In Set CPU for Root Users i tried to "Autodetect Speeds" and it said "No root access detected. Are your applications allowed access to root"...i wanna bump up the speed a little bit and fully take advantage of setcpu i just bought.

Do I need a different kernel? Is the a setting I need to change somewhere? Anyone??

tonynovas

Yo!

Running NexFro 1.0.1 with the P3 1200 kernel and C_01.41.00R baseband. No WiFi issues at all.

HOWEVER! I am having the funky Market issues. It is SLOW. I mean.... I can barely even use it. Same thing happens to my Live.fm and Pandora apps. It just sorta sits. And this is when I'm seemingly connected to 3G or WiFi.

I've been holding off on Pete's because I love the NexTheme. Having the NexFro with stock fonts is beautiful - I can't handle the extra-skinny NexFro font!

However, I'm thinking about testing BB to see if the market/streaming music issues persist.

OTHERWISE, everything is gravy.

And yes, as other's have asked... how are folks pulling off such high benchmarks?!

I'm pulling off numbers ranging from 1400 - 1500 when clocked at 1200.

Anything above 1500 seems downright crazy to me... and I want in on this crazy!!!

Peace!

johnlgalt

The first time you run SetCPU it should ask if you want to allow root.

Go into your App Drawer, find the Superuser app, and see if SetCPU is listed - if it is, and has a green light, then try rebooting the phone, f it still does not work, go back into SuperUser, remove SetCPU, then reboot the phone and run SetCPU again - it should then ask for Superuser privileges, and make sure to select the

This may be stupid and may not work but have you tried *228 option 2? It fixed all of my market problems. Sounds weird I know, but I saw it in another forum and tried it. I couldn't find LogMeIn in the market even if I used AppBrain added it to install and synced with it. After I tried that it worked both ways and my market sped up.

johnlgalt

*228 option 2 - ala *22891 - a roaming / PL update? wow. Never would have thought of that.

gotwillk

has anyone noticed that gtalk on the phone now syncs up with gchat on the pc? if you chat with someone on gmail through gchat, the talk app on your phone will sync up the convo. so when you go afk, you can continue the convo right where you left off, with the entire chat on your phone.

this is probably THE MOST useful feature for me, so far, that i have noticed on froyo. too bad it only goes one way, pc to phone, and not phone to pc. but i can live with that.
