Root Frankenrom is alive.

Dang.

E: Can't open/sdcard/Frankenrom.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted

I am still hboot 0.77 tho, maybe that's the problem. Restoring to B5.

Download was most likely incomplete. Check the actual downloaded file size VS the server file size. Thats usually the first indication. Also try opening the file on your PC and see if you get an unexpected end of archive error.


thanks for the offer but mms seems to be working both ways for me so i guess no need to fix it if its not broke.

I flashed every theme I could get my hands on with FrankenB6 and never had any mms problems. And I use MMS daily :D

ihtfp69 has a fix for the demon voices



I have a fix as well I got from someone else, just do this:


if you root explorer its easy but it can be done through adb as well,

Change build.prop to fix it, if you edit /system/build.prop and change...

Change this:

media.stagefright.enable-http=true

...to...

media.stagefright.enable-http=false


works for me everytime I flash a FrankenROM.

Are the themes you been flashing from themes in the EVO forum threads? If so, how do I know which are compatible? All themes from EVO Froyo FRF91 builds work?

It breaks mobile youtube. Thats why I don't use it.

AFAIK, all fixes break something or another. If I am wrong, I welcome someone to correct me.
