Root Two Releases Two Days, Froyo Anyone? - Sapphire 0.6.0

[Sniffle]

Froyo was open-sourced at approximately 23-June-2010-12:30 PM CST. All from source rom builders were hit with something new, somethign BIG! The previous vendor setup no longer worked, OH NO! In a race against the clock, knowing that the CM team would be working quickly to get CM building froyo, CVPCS got busy all by his lonesome making his own vendor setup. His goal... get a release out before anyone else finished their Froyo rom for the Droid.

Note: Themes will re-gain support in the next release

I restored data from another frf 57 rom and my power control widget and news and weather widgets no longer work

 

[Sniffle]

it will need a total data/cache wipe, sorry

Great job guys. I do appreciate the midnight oil burning!

But ... my camera is still broken.

See here, or here, or here. Back to CM.

Clean install btw. Wipes all over.

Giving it a shot... Will report back any bugs.

thats not good news for me. I was hoping the source-based 2.2 ROMs would fix my broken camera.

nvm, after trashing and replacing widgets they work, phone is going great now, I wiped phone completely 5 times and restored my /data from previous build, all is well so far

Wow! This rom is amazingly fast. Haven't had a single issue with it yet.

 

[mrthundercleese]

The DROOOID notification is missing.

Yeah I've been waiting for the source code to hit the AOSP hoping that "stable code" meant "fixed camera". Disappointed I was.

Just barely got it loaded up 45 seconds ago... But here is what I have so far. (This is for the FroYo release.)


First thing I noticed on initial boot... A reboot option! (God how I miss the little things from Cyanogen.) But Sapphire goes one step further and offers a recovery option as well!

Step 2 was to jump into ROM manager and grab an overclock kernel. The jdlfg kernels work flawlessly!

Camera - Works beautifully

Camcorder - Does not. It will load up and you can record the video, but when you end the recording, it force closes and does not save the video.

I am in the process of doing an app restore right now, so I will post back more later. (and after my battery has recharged... its at 10% right now.)

Camcorder issue sounds like the one that was on the CM 5.0.7 test builds...there was a simple fix to edit a file and make a small change - can't remember, build.prop, or? This could be a similar issue, I guess...

It more than likely is the build.prop. I know a BUNCH of ROMs that have been released over the past 6 months with the same problems initially.

I just recorded a video for 15 seconds and it saved. I can go to the gallery and it plays the whole thing.

... And the story has a twist.

FRF57 isnt the true source is it?

Haha I just saw that and was about to post it.

I've decided to hang out a bit even with the hosed camera.

I was wondering the same.

 

[Sniffle]

FRF57 is the proprietary files used from the FRF57 leak, this is a pure from source build

 

[altimax98]

will you be updating to the newest final source from google? FRF83 i think?

 

[justinthegeek]

If I understand this stuff correctly, when you build from source, there are no google apps or any other goodies. I think he pulled the good stuff from the FRF57 build and made the actual os from source. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

 

[Sniffle]

FRF83 is the proptrietary files for the Nexus one... we will be updating to the latest droid source as soon as it is released

 

[Fadelight]

Just tried jrummy's no clock theme for froyo. Won't boot past the bootloader. I wouldn't recommend anyone else try that one. lol.
