I'm having a ton of battery life problems with froyo and froyo based roms, I want to troubleshoot it and I think it has something to do with the new radios. Can you run the 4.06 radio with 2.1 and/or 2.1 based mods?

Yes, but **** won't work.
I'm really only worried about being able to make calls etc. I don't care about the camera or camcorder.
I ran froyo radio with 2.1 with no issues...
Hey, I'm very new to android, all this rooting, custom roms etc. Anyways. I installed this ROM. (FROYO_2.2.1_Final_Android_Stock). And, I thought that Froyo 2.2.1 has Flash 10.1 by default, but it didn't, so I thought, hmm, I'll get it from market. But, it's not in the market. Could anyone of you help? I found an .apk, but when I installed it, it kept crashing my browser. Also, a question: Is the ROM I have the best one? In terms of speed, compatibility and app support? Or are there better ones?
EDIT: I pretty much need the Flash player only for watching streams - Livestream, UStream, JustinTV, Own3d.tv, ESL TV.

you can't get a stock froyo ROM with 10.1 as far as I know, however, ther chocolatefroyo ROM does have 10.1 running, but it has a camera bug which stops that from working. For now, you will have to choose between camera and flash.

There is no 'best' ROM, but it definitely isnt the stock one... I am running FroydVillain and I love it
The full Flash 10.1 is not possible on the Hero, the nearest you can get is Flash Lite which is only part of Sense ROMs. I'm not sure what its limitations are but you're best to just take a stable Sense ROM and find out, then see if it suits your needs.
Has anyone succesfully gotten flash to work with honeycomb?
From what I understand it works with froyo. so why not HC?
WOW, did you even try to read before asking ?
Simple search might have lead you here.
Google search may have lead you here.
As well as some results on other Android related forums. No one's gotten Flash 10.1 to work on Eclair 2.1 on the Nook - and since the HC Preview is based on a modified stock 2.1 kernel as mentioned in the first link it won't work.
Now others have gotten flash 10.1 to work on Eclair on other devices. So maybe it's possible. But we're all basically waiting for Flash 10.2 and/or the HC AOSP.
If you need Flash you have to go with one of the FroYo or Gingerbread options.
10.1 is usless. Waiting 10.2.
i have 4.06.00.12_7
what benefit is there? one problem i sometimes notice when making or getting phone calls nobody can hear me for the first 5s of the call...
and if an upgrade is in order what radio is recommended
running cm7
a lot of people have this problem. i dont think it is related to the radio. install the latest nightly or redstar kernel which seems to help. or try installing the dewonkificator
I don't think it is related to any ROM, I had it on stock, cm6 and cm7, seems to just be an n1 issue.
When people hear RADIO they think antenna and think that it's only for reception. The new radios include updated decoders also. This is why MUI-Dev and new roms NEED the 5.08+ Radios. The new OTA update (Gingerbread) includes the 5.08 Radio. You can even upgrade to 5.12 but at least use 5.08. There is no reason to be on version 4 anymore.

It is absolutely ROM related. This was not an issue on CM6 nor the stock GB OTA. There are race conditions within the CM7 kernel causing the "wonk." Cyanogen and Team Douche are working the issues and have almost solved the problem. This problem is prevalent on alot of other ROMS as they are mostly based on CM7 as well.
i thinks will be related with camera .. because after i use ver 5.08 my movie is getting smoother..

That's due to the new decoders/encoders built into the new radio... This is why at this point in time everyone should be on either 5.08 or 5.12.
You need to be at least on 5.08 for some of the GB enhancements.
Hi,I have a never odin updated phone aand am trying to decided if it is worth updating to 2.3.3. Currently my bluetooth works with in car but can't control it from the cars remote and I guess that I am hoping that 2.3.3 will fix it. Or am I better to flash to a newer 2.2.1 firmware?

Many people may say yes....But to tell u the truth....I ve tried many from stock....to customised roms for foryo, GB....etc....What i ve found out that stock roms are less problematic with zero errors etc....but in custom roms u may get into one or other problem due to heavy optimisations to code....
Between GB & froyo there is no difference in feel & any big new feature. All features are hidden i.e for developers only (at least in JVK build for Galaxy S). U may think afterwards that what was all that fuss about GB when the end user cannot make out any big difference. Since all the Key fetures like SIP, NFC & TW4 are not for Galaxy S at the moment....due to hardware or sammy don't want to do it coz of Galaxy S2.
no in my opinion
At least for the current beta GB relaase XXJVK i think it's not worth to upgrade from a froyo-2.2.1
I am waiting until roms are produced based on the official release of gingerbread. For now 2.2.1 suits me just fine.

have to admit just done it and all i can say is wow!
i was using 2.2.1 with speedmod and the colour and sharpness is great. however now that im using 2.3.3 jvk the screen just looks different! well, i switched over just for the tv off animation which all my iphone frens find it so cool!
i think it worth it. i had 2.2.1 costumed rom and he was realy nice. but this one, the JVK stock rom is the fastest, smoothest rom i had.
and dont be affraid of ODIN, it's not biteing

I would wait for a couple of weeks.Samsung has said that the official GB will released mid-April.
i´m on ultimate 8.2 for more than a week now and i´m really happy with it. bluetooth works with my parrot now about 95%. and i have to say my phone has to re-connect 30 times a day. all i do is turn off wlan+3g and i also turn off bluetooth in longer workbreaks, because if bluetooth is on for hours than it crashes.
i will not change to ginger until an official version will be released, because ultimate is the best rom i could get for my sgs.
Maybe wait for more stable version of custom rom.

i tried both, JV1 and JVK, but in my opition a custom froyo is still better.
bluetooth did not work better in ginger also.
Wait for an official Gingerbread release. You will be better off installing a custom ROM based on the latest 2.2.1 release until then.

Whay custom roms would you recommend?
i tried a lot of roms in the last weeks, but in my option ultimate rom is the best custom froyo rom.

i was always unlucky with ultimate roms, but i've been on SIMPLY GALAXY, its brilliant. i would recommend INSANITY as well
for me if i will be ready for gb, i will go for MIUI or CM7, however, im still a chicken to do it
simply is quite ok. good speed, but i have huge battery drain with this rom.
i never tried insanity. looking foreward for a test.
wait official release of gingerbread then update on some of custom roms
When I upgraded from stock 2.2 to stock JV Gingerbread, my battery life EASILY has doubled, and EVERYTHING is faster. This is no lagfix nonsense or anything else, just stock.
