is anyone else having problems installing swype? I am running xtrROM 4.2.1, and I can successfully install 1.60, but when I try to use it, I get this message:"The Swype package you installed does not match the screen size of the device. Please contact Swype about this issue. Screen size: 320x480)"I was able to use 1.56 fine on xtrROM 4.2.1, just installing 1.60 seems to be giving me issues.

I'm trying to go from the Froyosense 37 to the xtrROM and I'm not sure I understand the directions I have been trying to follow and I don't want to mess up my phone or end up with a brick
I have repartitioned the SD card like it says to do and "thought" I did a back up of the previous SD card because I copied to my computer. I've downloaded the new xtrROM zip file and from here I am stuck.
These are the instructions which I'm sure are perfectly clear.
TO INSTALL:
1. YOU MUST HAVE A ROOTED PHONE WITH THE AMON_RA RECOVERY PARTITION (my phone is rooted - not sure about the recovery partition)
2. download the base xtrROM .zip file **did that **
3. complete NANDROID backup (not even sure how to do that)
4. copy the .zip file to the root of your sd card (can't find a file on what I saved to my computer that says "root")
5. From amon_ra recovery Wipe data/factory reset, Wipe Dalvik-cache, and Wipe SD:ext partition
6. flash the xtrROM file from sd card
7. reboot - first boot will take a while (i.e. over 10 mins - deodexed ROMs take longer on first boot)
8. complete short setup and let your accounts sync
9. you can save and run GScripts to personalize settings at any time
The only thing I've done with this phone is flash back to the stock ERIS ROM and then back to the Froyo 37 that is currently on it. I got it rooted and running that.
I have a aftermarket navigation system in my car that includes an adapter to conect other screen in the upper dash. this adapter is to connect to OEM screen of the car but i dont need it.
my idea is to conect a chinese tablet i have here. the tablet is a 7''. the adapter lets me mount the tablet but i wont be able to see all the screen.
Can I resize the screen size to match the adapter opening size?
I've been running White Widow 4.3 and wanted to try out a new ROM. I've heard so many good things about xtrROM 3.03 that I decided to give it a shot. However, after installing the rom, my phone just sits at the boot screen. I've let it sit there for somewhere around 20 minutes and it just keeps looping the boot screen over and over. Has this ever happened to anyone else before? Or does anyone know what I should do to get this rom going?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI would like to be able to alter the size of some of my ImageViews based on what Drawable they are showing. I've not yet decided on whether I'll get them to read the new dimensions from the Drawable or if I will just have an array/enum storing the heights of these, but what I need help with is the actual changing of the ImageView size.Which of the many many function for altering sizes of things should I be using to change the size of an ImageView while still retaining it's relative positioning in the RelativeLayout it is a part of? I can't work out if I should be changing the bounds of the Drawable or if I should be redefining the LayoutParams of the ImageView or some other method altogether. The drawables are always going to be the same width, but their height will change depending on what is in each tile of a map (which this is rendering).
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm currently running xtrsense but am curious about xtrrom and some of the extra features that it has (ie. live wallpapers). I'm currently running a2sd and cache2sd and wondering if all my apps and associated data will still be there and accessible once I run the gscript to turn their features on in xtrROM after wiping my phone and installing? Or should I turn a2sd and cache2sd off while still running Sense so that everything comes back to the phone's internal memory, back them up with Titanium, and turn apps and cache2sd back on once I do the ROM switch?
View 11 Replies View RelatedI'm rooted via the 'rooting for dummies' for two days now. I've had my eris since this spring and was happy until recently my OTA2.1 dialer lag was infuriating. Rooted, started with PlainJaneT2. SO MUCH BETTER! Now using latest xtrROM. EVEN BETTER (imo)! Tempted to try KaosFroyo but there's no browser flash yet? I'll play with xtrROM for awhile longer. do you use setcpu w/ xtrROM. I know it's OC'ed from the get-go (235-710 or something) but I heard 528-604 is the sweet spot for the eris.
View 15 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone else have really bad battery life on xtrROM 4.6? I have window animations turned off, have brightness down to like 35% and my battery life is still really bad.
Also on a maybe related note, I only have like 40 MB of internal storage available and I only have like 15 or so apps.
I haven't enabled any of the gscripts yet either.
Can you use Apps2sd on the xtrROM 4.6? If so, how do I do it?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm considering switching roms sometime soon. I have xtrROM currently installed and was considering going to xtrSense. I'm assuming since I already used the dev's method for AP2SD that I won't need to do anything again. Does this mean all my current apps will boot up automatically when I flash xtrSense?
View 2 Replies View Relatedthe gscripts in my ROM aren't working. I do everything I'm supposed to do, and everything looks normal, but when I reboot and look at my settings, nothing has changed. I tried with a2sd and that didn't work and I just tried to set the stock CPU and it is still running at 710.

I was curious as to what settings people were using on their phone and home launchers (pro or otherwise) to extend battery life on xtrROM. Right now I'm getting pretty crappy battery life, but I'm pretty sure the culprits are all animations and live wall papers. Just want to get a feel for what other things I can give up to keep the things that I enjoy (and yes I enjoy the LWP and animations).
Unrelated question, is any harm done to the phone by keeping USB debugging off? I had to turn it on to use SetCPU.
QuickOffice was an excellent app included in the stock Eris.
It seems to be missing from xtrROM3.03.
I need it back, but don't want to leave this excellent ROM.
Titanium backup seems to have backup the settings of Quickoffice, but not the app itself.
Any way for me to get that app back?
I'm a very newly rooted user (tonight)...all is well so far! I'm looking to take the plunge into a custom rom without getting in over my head the first time!
What are the major differences between xtrROM and xtrSENSE?
From what I understand, these are two very popular roms for n00bs to start with.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of each?
I just flashed xtrROm...and have the following issues:
1. Some random contacts from my gmail account do NOT synch to the phone. No rhyme or reason - just a handfull of contacts are NOT on the phone. I can't make a connection to "Groups", with/without an e-mail or phone#, etc. It just seems completely random.
2. Battery life is horriible. I'm talking about draining to nothing in a few hours (This is a separate issue I will look into). Regarding gmail contacts, it seems that it is constantly doing a Contact Sync - and DOES NOT STOP.
I had Swype, all was good. Then it started freezing my screen, or misguiding the touch to the point that removing the battery was the only option. It was not a phone issue, because I factory reset and it works now. I had to because disabling Swype did not solve the problem. Is there any beta or anything out there?I CAN'T GO BACK TO TOUCH INPUT!

View 5 Replies View RelatedIt gives me the error message "Application Not Installed." Normally, this is because a prior version is installed, but I have no prior version of Swype. Is this just a limitation of the Rom?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am designing a home screen widget. I ran this widget on a HTC Hero device, which has a screen of 320 pixels * 480 pixels with mdpi. It ran perfect on HTC Hero. The widget takes 3 cells * 2 cells space, i.e. 240 pixels * 200 pixels.Then I ran this widget on a Nexus One device, which has a screen of 480 pixels * 800 pixels, mdpi. Since Nexus One also is mdpi, so I though 240dip is equivalent to 240 pixels on Nexus One and 200dip is equivalent to 200 pixels on Nexus One, so the widget will not take 3 cells * 2 cells space on Nexus One device. To my surprise, when running on Nexus One device, the widget take exact 3 cells * 2 cells, about 360 pixels * 300 pixels, on Nexus One device.I am confused. The layout xml above specifies 240dip in width and 200dip in height for the widget, but why did it take 360 pixels * 300 pixels on Nexus One Device? What am I missing?
