Hi guys, lots of questions here I have found no answers to online. PLEASE help me, this should help some others. I have Deeper Blue's Android 3.0 Honeycomb Preview v04 ROM installed on my NC:
1. How do I get CWM installed on the device (able to boot into it from the NC itself whenever I want)? When I try to install with ROM Manager (current or old versions of CWM), it says "An error occurred while attempting to run privileged commands!" Nothing seems to fix this, I can't get CWM installed to device. I really want to be able to nandroid backup and restore on this because I want to try Froyo too.
OR is CWM only usable on the NC right now by booting to it via SD card?
2. Is there a fix or alternative to the stock Gallery on this ROM? Every time I try to open a pic in it, it force closes.
3. When on WiFi, I think every time I try to play a YouTube video through the app or browser in HQ mode, it won't play. Usually standard quality works but even that fails sometimes. Any fix to this?
4. I am rooted of course and the newer Superuser app is installed. For some reason every time I've ever run a root app on here, I've never seen the toast popup asking for root permissions and there are no Apps at all listed in the Superuser app itself. What gives? Why are there no apps listed there that have permissions? All root apps run fine though..
5. No picture or video files seem to play in the included stock music app either.
When I go to Gallery and then click a folder within to get to the media files, I get a message that says "The application Camera (process com.android.gallery) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. [Force Close button]. How can I view photos and videos easily in a Gallery app with this?
5.a Since the above doesnt work for playing videos either, I try to open a video/movie files from within Astro and it says "Cannot play video Sorry, this video cannot be played." How can I play movies on this??? I'm surprised the music app even plays music to be honest...so far...
6. Ever since doing all this rooting and ROMing to the NC, I have not once been able to plug the device in to my PC in mass storage mode, to manage the contents of the SD card inside. I have the drivers installed to make ADB work with the NC, but the NC does not seem to have any USB mode options at all when plugging in. There are no options to change among mass storage mode, pc mode, etc... so how do I mount and see the SD card without using a separate card reader? Is there any way to change USB mode and do this??
7. I had one hell of a time installing regular Angry Birds. The Seasons version was in the market no problem, but regular AB was not showing up in the market. I couldn't download/transfer the apk file and install, as the install would fail every time. The only way I got it to work was to push the apk to the phone with ADB and then moving it into system/app. Then going in system/app with Root Explorer and clicking the apk and installing it (making it a system app and undeletable the normal way apparently). Why the hell did I have to go through this? I bet I won't even receive market updates on it will I? Can I install AB the normal way by any method??
8. Does this HC build have any headphone EQ settings? I can't find any menu in the music app or in the NC settings that have any tweaks for sound.
Also, when plugging headphones into the NC (I am using iPod ones), does anyone else have it so that you can't fully plug it in the jack (that's what she said lol)? There's still some of the headphone plug sticking out, although it seems to work fine if you plug it in just the right amount...almost like the jack doesn't go deep enough to fit the whole plug.
9. What's the best way, if possible, to install Swype on the NC?
10. Google Maps force closes ("has stopped unexpectedly..") every time I open...any fix??
