Well I answered it! Haha I might be able to help you out here too.
I recently encountered a problem with Super User not connecting to anything, and what I did was just re-flash the ROM right on top of what was already running. It won't wipe anything, besides a theme, and it also works by re-installing the stock apps. Data is never lost, but sometimes it resolves problems within apps.
What it sounds like is that your IM app isn't connecting to data services. Try all EDGE/3G/WiFi connections. If that's a no go, re-install the app with a re-flash of the ROM. If that STILL doesn't work, wipe and re-flash.
Let me know how that goes :]

Alright, cool. Personally, I would give up on the Stock app and switch to one of the other countless IM apps on the market, because they're constantly updated and quite frequently have more features to offer, but that's just my opinion :].

i like buddymob so far. only really have had it for a few days now since i became more concerned with my default IM app problem. ebuddy looked good but didnt provide a seamless way to use it as a im app that was constantly on and connected via the phone. like no taskbar icon or nothin

BTW where would i actually download and be able to reinstall the default IM application? from the market? i looked hmmmm...

You won't be able to get it from the market, but you can unzip any build with it in it and drop the app on your SD card and install with an App manager program.
That's odd, you might want to try re-installing the app then :].
Hi, I tried searching, but could not seem to find an answer for this. I am currently using Advanced Task Manager, however, I find that there will always be about 3-6 applications that runs by itself after half an hour of idleness.
My question: Is there an application that limits the amount of background apps running on Android? Although I love multitasking, I think that there are some merit of being able to limit it to 2 or 3 apps running at anyone time, instead of constantly having to use ATM before running another app or doing something (to boost the performance).
Btw, I am using HTC Dream/G1 using CyanogenMod's latest. Thanks for any help and assistance on this.
Some of those apps have to be open
Ex.
I know settings appears in ADV task manager even though the phone has been on home.Camera seems to been on the list after doing some media things like viewing pics or music..
My point is I think theres a Autokill feat or you can get the 10MB if you really need the memory.You should try Super-D since you said your a multi-tasker, its alot faster after doing benchmarks and comparing both roms.Even bootup is faster but some say the new Wesgarner rom is faster than the two. i personally stick to the roms in my sig though.
In dev tools there is an option to limit the number of running apps to 1, 2, 3, or 4.

It is in almost all of the developer's ROMS in XDA, Cyanogen, TheOfficial, xROM, etc. Just look in the app drawer.

Thanks. Got it. Didn't notice that app till now.
Alright, I've been meaning to do this a while;
Jamezelle asked me to port his Sense Hero build over to the new installation method a while back but I've been really caught up with my personal build. Now that I'm at a level I'm comfortable with I had some time to do this for James.
Bear in mind this is a cupcake based build, so alot of the new work we've done to tweak android won't work here. But it was good then and it's just as good now
Please don't use the 'orange' launcher on setup. I just realized now after uploading 100MB that I put in a donut launcher that won't work in cupcake. so just use rosie.
I've tweaked it a little, including userinit on boot etc.
It is nandable. Boot up is slow because it isn't odexed however once up and running it runs as good as.. well as good as it did before.. lol
The original thread for the post is here;

also you dont need to format your card for donut and above. so if you had started out with donut or eclair and didnt format your card thats probably why. cause i had to format my sdcard when i was using cupcake but then i had got a new sdcard and immediately switched to donut but never formatted my sdcard and it worked. just throwing out some possibilities

I love the Hero, thanks so much! I think it's running even faster than the tatoo, but since it's cupcake, all the wifi updates I have for donut and eclair don't work for the cupcake (I tried and with no luck), it would be perfect for daily use if the wifi is working, anyway, appreciate for your work!
Thanks for all the info guys. I love the senseui in this SenseHero build…but I honestly miss Myn's Warm Donut. It is the most fast and reliable build I have tried for the vogue. Even with the Market working in the SenseHero build, it lags to much to me. I will really miss using the mail, sms, album, and calendar widgets that are in this build. Does any one know if I could just take the apk's of the widgets out of the data/apps to insert into the ported Hero theme in Myn's Warm Dount?

Per what I've read in the town hall meeting summary I'm making a new topic for this new version. If this isn't what I should be doing please let me know.
Blackhole 1.2 Beta (JK6)
I know it's been a while since my last update, but I hope this one is worth the wait. I have integrated power options into the default theme, and hopefully been able to fix the media issues, but I haven't gotten confirmation from any testers yet. Please post any issues you have with this ROM here, or on the error reporting thread at www.androiddoes.net/sonofskywalker3.
This ROM is now downloadable through ROM Manager, alongside version 1.1, so you can revert if you have problems with the update.
thanks skywalker. I finally got it to pop up in rom manager?!! don't know how, But am happy to see your work is still in progress. keep it up and happy holidays to you and yours.
What rom version is this based on? JL4?
OP updated to show this is a JK6 ROM. thanks.
Great, Thanks!
Ok I just flashed this with eugene's io kernel. So far almost everything seems great. I could run benchmarks with this version and it seems really fast. My haptic feedback isn't working at all, which doesn't bother me too much but I thought I should mention it. I dont know if this is rom related or market related but when I try to go to my apps in the market it gives me a server error but I can download new apps and data seems to work great everywhere else. I installed the new market to see if it would fix it, but it was the same and I flashed the jl4 modem and it didn't fix it either. Also is the gingerbread boot animation supposed to just be a bunch of static? Everything else is great and snappy. I was looking forward to this for awhile! Thanks!

Haptic feedback may be related to the kernel, have you tried flashing the jk6 stock kernel? let me know.
I'm not sure what's up with the market issue, but i'll look into it. also could you send me a link to the new market so i can update it in the rom?
Lastly, yes, the gingerbread bootanimation is a joke by Hardcorepooka, it's just designed to mess with your head a bit
Edit: also, if you're in the mood for testing, make a playlist of a few songs/videos and see if it freezes after 1 or keeps playing now.
Just saw this on Droid-Life: http://www.droid-life.com/2010/12/20/anyone-else-experiencing-market-issues/ so for the moment i'm going to label the previously mentioned market issues as officially "Not my fault"
Hey I would be happy to do some testing in a little bit. However I am on my way to the airport now to pick up some family. Which actually lead to another issue. I downloaded maps from the market and navigation doesn't work out just gets stuck on checking navigation availability. I needed navigation so I had to flash axura back at a gas station and it was working. Market issues were the same in axura though so yeah must be a market issue. When I get home I can do some testing though and if no one gets you the new marley by then I'll get the link for you. Thanks again

thats funny because i get a shutdown animation but no bootup animation. i do get sound when i bootup though. i chose the blackhole boot animation and i have the JK6 stock kernel which i heard isnt compatible with the custom boot animations. so i dunno. kinda sucks but the rom is great so im not complaining. i dont reboot that often anyway
also when i try to choose "Download ROM" and then choose "Sonofskywalker3" i get this message "Error occurred while processing the ROM list!" when i choose "Extras" i can see the two Superuser options (though they are grayed out) not sure if thats a problem on your end or with new ROM Manager since i had to update again. i dont know how these lists work exactly so i dont know where the problem could be

To reduce the size of the rom I removed the default boot animation video, so if you don't have a compatible kernel it will remain blank and play the audio. Shutdown animations work regardless of the kernel. I'll see if I can't figure out how to enable the custom bootanimations on the stock kernel. Haven't done any kernel hacking before, should be fun.

Just had a chance to test mine this afternoon and it was working. Took a minute to see any satellites in GPS Test but after sitting for 2-3 minutes, all of a sudden it saw and started using 9 satellites and maps had a fix as soon as I launched it.
I made a boot animation for this rom. Its not much but you can have a look.

I installed it, it did great, I restored everything from Titanium, rebooted, and now it will never stop booting. Just doing the HTC with the green indicator "with HTC Sense" on the bottom, and it's doing it for 30 minutes. I brought it into recovery and wiped the cache, and the Dalvik, still the same. I cant get it to a home screen to try laying another rom over it. Any ideas?

All I know of is aosp's asopcmmod or cm nightly. There was probably something in titanium backup that messed it up, you can restore most of your downloaded apps, just keep away from restoring any system apps or associated data.

ntsense is what kifno originaly copied anyway, and it was much better before he screwed everything up.
I'm told the "tweak" wasn't included in this rom. However, I'm frowning upon this thread because it is promoting a rom that is no longer supported and a rom that is one of the biggest KANGS ever!
People, stop using Rocksteady!

Correction, Handcent DID allow me to view messages, but a few minutes after I sent a msg, I got a notice that it never sent. Hmm.
Would the fact that this distribution is for a Sprint phone, but mine is an Ntelos? As far as i know Ntelos is pretty much a clone of Sprint, and is a parent company in a few ways over Ntelos.
