Root GAOSP Froyo Nightly Builds

i have the 17mb one. what do you have to do to install the smaller one? just "apply any zip" over the previous one?

Oh, and Hi everyone, 1st post here

Welcome to the Forum !!!

There's a bit on confusion on this

You have to apply the 8 mb version by choosing apply any zip from sd

You can overwrite the 17 mb version...Makes no difference

Just wondering, does everybody have more then 30 MB (32-36 MB) free on their Galaxy???
Because I'm having it (previously I had less then 30 MB (27 MB). :thinking:

P.S:using the latest nightly
Yep. I used to have 22-24MB now looking at 34MB :D Explains why it feels sooo much quicker.

Hehe i made explode with my annoying questions :D The good part is that i`m over happy and satisfied by this nightly :D its waaaaaaaat better than galaxo.
Anyway any help with my keyboard, can someone upload a .apk from ure phones with a working htc_ime or swiftkey. or link me on private :D


What do you like vs the galaxo? i have them both installed and cant see the main difference. The headset does not work yet, well known problem. GAOSP is slower, not too slow, compared with galaxo and I cant decide which one to stick to.

swiftkey beta works and its free in market on nightly build. :D

My recent exploits with GAOSP nightly 09182010

Objective : To try and replace the 3dgallery with 2dgaosp found from somewhere in drakaz forum

Tools Used : Root Explorer

Results :

  1. The gallery stopped working altogether
  2. Force closures on taking picture with the camera
  3. Lots of irritation and fury
Conclusions :

  1. Life is good. Im still alive. Experiment with your phone
  2. Have a nandroid backup before you dwell with your wild side.
  3. Say YaY !! YaY !! Galaxo Saves a lot of arse* :D
*End of objective*

**Mission Failed**

Uninstalled setCPU..Restarted and installed 2.03 again
Same thing...The moment I touch profiles it FCz

Feel like either throwing myselves or the galaxy at the wall #@%$#

I encountered an error that causes a program to force close in a similar fashion.

I was using the latest nightly but coupled with an older version of the gapps package. In my case, I noticed that the owner and group of the app's directory and the app pkg weren't the same (One was 100xx and the other was 1000 aka root). I changed the owner and group to the same one (follow the 100xx or the app_xx).

Another thing I noted was that this only happens for apps that are uninstalled then reinstalled or replaced with a newer version.

I performed a wipe, reinstall of the nightly and used the 17mb gapps package and currently it seems ok.

Wiped and installed 9182010 Nightly again.
This time applied the 17 mb version gaaps. It works perfectly ok. 3d gallery is definitely fast with the 17mb gaaps as compared to 8mb version gaaps.

While doing nandroids was pleasantly surprised to find that each slot can hold more than one backups. WOW that was serendipity. Loving the recovery even more by Drakaz :p

But the problem of installs from market getting stuck up remain.(Switched to wifi after a restart and was ok with markets. Will Shift to EDGE to see how markets behave)

dudes, big problem i have.,....my status bar shows that headphones/handsfree icon, and now when i`m making calls i cant hear anything, probably the phone thinks that i have headset in and it sends the call sound to headset(which doesnt exists). any ideas? how do i set handsfree options, from where, i cant make calls....hopefully when i wake up i`ll have my answer. Some other thing, none of the startup managers work on froyo, not startup auditor or any others, not even the "running services" options built-in the applications settings menu...and i have apps like real player, messaging, voice search and yaam that start on their own....

Have you done the plugging headphones in and unplugging them quickly thing a few times?

Downloads properly but also can't instal...

It installed randomly on mine
When stuck on downloading ...I stopped it ... Restarted the phone and it automatically updated the next time I opened the market.

THOUGH : ALL THE TIME THE PHONE WAS CONNECTED TO WiFi


Though not much features on 2.3 or 2.2
It can only attach images.
K-9 is lot better

guys anybody could update the gmail application on gaosp ? for me its downloading but says package not signed properly

and what mflops you are getting?I am using the 8th Sept nightly and getting 0.99 mflops :(

I had issues trying to install it. The package downloaded fine. That was when I was using an older gapps collection. After reinstalling and using the latest gapps from drakaz, it installed fine.

Not sure if that is the thing that did it for me.
