Root GAOSP Froyo Nightly Builds

[golanster]

i'm about to install the goasp nightly - should i go for 07262010 or 07282010 ?

thanks in advance

i have installed 07282010 this morning and i dont really know whats the different
i guess that drakaz did something else he would not released it but i dont see any noticable speed or any bug that have beed fixed since 26
but go for 28 sa i said he must have done something.....

from Drakaz's Github repo:

"Fix external sd mount/umount and secdir. Fix media scanning by mouting external
sd also in /sdcard/sd"

This was commited about 13 hours ago, around the same time the new nightly was made.

no, nothing changed on internal, external or mounting.

my phone says

installing from SDcard..
finding update package..
opening update package..
E: cant open /sdcard/GAOSP-2-07282010-nightly.zip
(bad)
installation failed

i did - fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
pushed the new rectools.tar.gz - and recovery says V5.1
then i pushed the GAOSP nightly and gaaps..

does anyone know what is wrong ?

@kresten try to copy the .zip to your sdcard again, it seems to be damaged. if it doesn't help, redownload it.

 

[kresten]

i started redownloading.. somehow the file was only 48mb and it is surposed to be 54...
dnu what happened..

EDIT : redownloading fixed it

EDIT2 : using GPS status reboots phone after 2 minutes. cant get a gps fix - with copilot i tries for 3-4 minutes and then disables gps
using 07282010 GAOSP

There is something wrong with timezone settings too..

 

[golanster]

i have a fix with the gps and for my suprise the gps icon even stays after fix
i can confirm the error with the time zone

"Drakaz took aggresive stance against apps regarding cleaning their cache or killing them in his latest Galaxo 1.6.3.1. That basically means if you surf the web and go to home screen, returning back will result in reloading of the page which takes time and bandwidth."

Try if it can solve you problem by "setting>ADWLauncher>System Perferences>System persistent> Check it...

Where is the problem, I follow step by step. After loading screen with "GALAXY AOSP" the screen goes black and stuck. After remove batterie I can start again phone

Have been testing for a few days, have noticed when I activate wifi it works for a few minutes then blocks and I get a black screen on the phone,hope this helps in the debugging process.
I feel I should mention that Drakaz does say that this is not even a beta download yet and it is still early days with a lot of bugs on the nightly build which is to be used at our own risk.

Hey all I've tried out the latest build and I have noticed that my notification bar disappears while I am on the home screens. Has anyone else noticed this as well?
If so has anyone worked out a solution to it?
Thanks

when i switched from 1.6 to 2.1/2.2 i had to change some settings in the apn
in 1.6 the connection type was - internet (there was a button for internet, mms )
and in 2.x i have to write down - default.

check with your carrier for the right settings for you

In apn type, enter: default

I'm yet to make mms working though.

thanks,i'll try this

is there any solution to see the phone the external sd?

 

[bresslau]

Just an update on the nightly 3007: it seems that the access the sdcards is working better now. I was able to set the upper level directories to Meridian and was able to start up Waze, which didn't work on the 2607 build.

Cheers,
Bresslau

I can`t install nightly build. After booting, screen goes black and no response... why ?

after boot the phone goes on locked and by default the lock (side) button is diabled
try to press the end key or in some cases, this happened to me only once
you need to take the battery out and next boot everything will be ok

I have tried using USB or WiFi tethering but it just doesn't work, so can someone confirm this feature is not yet implemented/working on this nightly builds, right?

I've also tried instaling EasyTether which works well on v1.6 but it doesn't work on Froyo yet, computer doesn't recognize Galaxy.
