Beezy,

Great job with the ROM. I have only had a day to play with it but love it so far.

Thanks, better to come when they give us the official.

Got a message today from the Google team congratulating me on my Nexus One purchase after installing 2.1 LMAO, anybody else get that message?

Ohhhh!!!!!! Now i get it!! LOL i got that too and ignored it... how funny.

I just wanna thank Beezy and Rufflez again for helping me yesterday! Totally switching to this forum (not crazy about the old one i was on).

Now if only i can figure out themes.... lol.

Themes are pretty easy,sometimes. If you need help just let me know.

Actually, i do kind of have a question. I like the Sense UI, i have no desire to run OpenHome or Panda, but i'm not sure how else to run a theme? My boyfriend has the moment and is running the 2.1 leak for that phone, and then on top of it, he has a cool theme with this helix bar at the bottom (no matter what screen you are on, there are 4-5 icons that stay on every screen) but it's also a font thing, and there's a couple of other tweaks.

I don't even know if I can do what I want... am i making any sense?

Usually you can just flash a theme like you do a rom.

 

[danidiva]

but it isn't the same thing as a rom right? n00b question i know, but a theme goes over your rom?

Yeah it goes over it and you don't have to wipe to flash them.

I agree, they have done a fantastic job on simplifying the process of rooting and upgrading to a new ROM. I've actually been trying all kinds of new things with my Hero since rooting it.

 

[danidiva]

So, when i install a mod or an add-on, is there an easy way to remove it if i don't want it anymore? Other than restoring to my most recent backup? I wouldn't mind except restoring takes a bit of time...

making a nadroid backup right before you flash.Other then that you could flash the stock version of it back if theres a zip for it.

Holy crap why did I wait so long to jump on 2.1 its so much better than the stock 1.5. Huge thanks to beezy, gbhil, and rufflez for all the hard work they put in that makes it easy for the rest of us to root and get all the latest and greatest updates without waiting for sprint and HTC to release. Happy as can be right now, keep up the great work!

Got a question...

When I bring up the phone now and search for someone, it's showing me all kinds of people that I do not have as contacts and would never call. It's pulling anyone from facebook that has a phone number listed. I then noticed that it does the same thing when writing a text, and also an email as far as email addresses go. Anyone to turn that "off" so it just shows me my contacts? I was at a friend's wedding this past weekend, and intoxicated at the reception called some people I definitely was not trying to hah.

If you go to people,then hit menu>View That should let you remove facebook lists.

 

[MIG106]

Unfortunately, it was already unchecked. It appears that only affects the people directory, and not the phone search function.

I'm been using this version of the 2.1 leak for a few days now and it's absolutely been fantastic compared to stock 1.5! However, just last night, I started having some weird glitches/bugs with it.

For some reason, none of the applications listed in my Account & Sync section will sync anymore. This includes all my Google services, Facebook, and even Weather. Nothing happens when I press the "Sync all" button, even though all three of these applications show up with the green, double-arrow sync icon and I've made sure that I'm properly logged in. Similarly, going into the Gmail app and refreshing through the menu option doesn't work either.

Another issue (which could be related to the previous problem) is that none of the apps in the Market will download or update. If I go into the downloads section and update one of the apps, it just sits at the top of my downloads list saying "Starting download..." but it never goes any further than that.

These problems occur on both Wifi and my Sprint network connection (with full bars). I've tried power cycling my phone to no avail. Does anybody have a solution or any idea as to what's going on? I'm in love with 2.1 and I don't really want to revert back to 1.5...

Thanks.

Well, after several hours, I think the Market issue sorted itself out. I'm still not able to sync my apps though...
