[q] Has anyone NOT ON SPRINT gotten mms working in AOSP roms?

I am well aware that MMS sending works for sprint, so if your a sprint customer, I don't care that yours works.
I have successfully input my carriers mmsc settings into multiple roms. I can get mms sending to work under any sense rom just fine. I cannot get it to work under AOSP, I have tried under CM6, DD2.8, and Csrom.
Has anyone who is on a carrier other than sprint ever gotten mms sending to work in an AOSP rom?

Yeah I have the same Issues.Also on all the AOSP roms my carrier still shows as Sprint, wish i could change that one too

dont think they will until someone cracks the MMS.apk for sprint.
FROM WHITERABBIT
"Sprint uses "Picture Mail" instead of MMS, which probably saves them some money or something, but causes problems when using phones off of Sprint. Maybe that isn't the case any more, but it definitely was within the past year or two."

I don't get what your implying here. I can send mms with my carrier no problem using sprint roms, its the aosp ones that give me trouble.

Any update on this? I, too, am on ACS.
I've been trying to soak in as much information as possible browsing these forums so that I can tweak my phone to my liking without bricking it. I finally jumped in and rooted a little over a week ago and flashed the Aloysius ROM I found on here. I lost my voicemail notifications, but thanks to another thread, I got that back. Now, I just need a cure for the MMS on AOSP ROMs.
Don't want this thread to die.

Aloysius is not an AOSP rom, its based off of damage control which is sprint based and thats why you didn't get voice mail notifications. This of course means you should be able to get working mms.
Download apn backup & restore from the market. extract the attatched zip file and stick the xml file in a folder on your sd card named ApnBackupRestore.
Run the app and delete all apns. then restore from my acs.xml file and you should be good to go.
O/T good to see more ACS customers on here!

Right on Man, thanks much.

Check out the Eris forums. Kaos Froyo is a CM/AOSP rom and mms works in it. Btw the Eris is a Verizon phone.

just tried it, didn't work in that rom I don't even get the network traffic lights like its trying to send. Thanks to the anykernel patcher thing it was stupid simple to get the eris rom running on the hero thanks for pointing out the eris forum as I found a froyo version of buufed there that I'm going to try.

You're welcome. You can also get that theme by downloading the new adw launcher and theming it in adw settings with the free theme from the market.

I've tried the theme but its kinda half assed compared to the fully themed rom. This is getting way off topic so I'll end it there.

This may be a dumb question but how are you running Eris roms on your Hero? Can I run Hero roms on my Eris?
Sent from my ERIS using XDA App

I changed the kernel. You could run hero roms on your eris by flashing an eris kernel into the hero rom. I didn't have working wifi, bluetooth or rotation sensors but I can probably get those working if put some effort in. Wifi I don't care about as the wifi on these phones is a JOKE seems to cap out at 1.5 to 2mbit throughput so might as well just use 3g.

I haven't got that far yet. I'm not brave enough (or I should say don't know enough) to do that yet. But thanks for the insight.

ROM rubiX Focused 0.3

This is brought to you by Drod2169: here is some info, please follow the link to download and for support. http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/droid-x-roms/8428-rom-rubix-focused-0-3-a.html Post #68 at Droid X forums has the brightness and calender fixes.
"You may know me from my Rubik releases for the droid 1.. Well recently I purchased a Droid X. I couldn't stand the phone stock, so of course I got busy. I've been working on this for quite a while, gone through quite a bit of bricks, sbf flashes, and passing it to my testers cause I couldn't afford to brick at the time.
I bring you the first release of the rubiX series for the Droid X. rubiX Focused, It is a blurless rom
Tranquility 2.3.5 base (2.2.3.15 base) thanks to p3droid, motorola (hah) and google
Build.Prop tweaks (thanks to Beesley)
Market fix
All apps optimized/zipaligned (Credit to me)
ADW Launcher as stock launcher (No more laggy blur home!)
Bloatware removed (Credit to me)
135.42 MB free in System! Speedy (Credit to me)
Google market apps removed (download from market)
Auto Brightness Hack (credit to Pete)
Speed and battery tweaks (Credit to me. Thanks Nenolod and Pete for inspiration on sysctl tweaks)
Few more things that I'd like to keep secret for the time being "

Hmmm, well if I am gonna have to wipe for this I may as well SBF back and get the official OTA.

Seems pretty decent so far. My linpak and quadrant scores are even with what I was getting with the OTA after getting rid of some bloat. Calendar fix hasn't fixed my sync issue yet. Any idea why when I post my scores to linpak my notes show build 2.2.20? I'm not familiar with that particular version. Phone info shows 2.3.15 as it should but this is obviously not built off the official 2.2 as I've notice certain things change back to leak versions.
I'll give this rom a few days but I'm probably heading back to the OTA.
Can someone share the stock backup assistant apk with me? I'm lazy enough that I was just using that instead of a3rd party app so now I'm missing a HUGE chunk of my contacts. If it can't be used on this rom I'm doingan sbf right away when I get home.

Why would you want the OTA? There is nothing magical about it, except Moto decided to lock the system down some more with new Bootloader keys.
Check out the threads around the forums, everyone is enjoying RubiX.

There is in fact a difference. Newer Baseband and New Kernel which results in better performance. These two objects were left out of the leak for fear of it leading back to the leaker.

Flashed it. It's pretty damn fast. Perhaps this is Jake's reconciliation.

Fast is true and easy to install when following directions. The one thing that is strange and wondering if anyone else is experiencing.
I keep getting FC when trying to access my calendar. Yes I am trying to access my google calendars with default calendar program and even Jorte.
Anyone else?
Perhaps ideas for me?

Happened to me...flash the rom zip following the instructions. Reboot the phone. Then bootstrap and reboot back into recovery and flash the calendarfix zip from page 7 of this thread: http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/droid-x-roms/8428-rom-rubix-focused-0-3-a-7.html

I had this instaled but could'nt get google maps to work so I went back to flyx rom. The market is stuck downloading google maps I hit cancel and it has force closed
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App

I also had some FC problems. It FC's everytime you try to stop a download in the market. It FC's every time you click on the battery manager to see what's sucking juice and it FC'd when messing around with the Calendar.
Because of those reasons, plus not being any faster than I had gotten my OTA after bloatware removal and some build.prop tweaks, not being able to use Backup Assistant (losing 80% of my contacts) and the fact that I actually like the native 2.2 txt app led me back to my OTA 2.2 through the nandroid backup I made before installing rubiX.
This is one I will definitely keep an eye on and will be testing in further revisions, but it's not where I want a rom to be right now.
I appreciate all the hard work that went into it but it's just not for me right now.

It's hosted there, as well as alldroid, and androiddoes.net.

[ROM] Tranquility 3.0

I'm not sure why it hasn't been mentioned on XDA yet, but TQ 3.0 has been released:
I'm only putting it out here, so if someone wants to make an official thread then go ahead. I'm amazed no one has said anything here... unless I'm missing something. Looks sweet!
READ ALL THE WARNINGS - especially Rubix users:
I'm leaving the below link in the post just in case, but the rom owner asked me to update the OP with a direct link. Don't worry, I tested the link, it's not malicious. Please visit this link first :

Thanks,

Installed and seems like this ROM is solid....no bug(s) yet....nice

Confused
This is supposed to be a blurless rom, correct? I loaded it last night, and def still has blur in it.... When I get home I'll have to see if it actually deodexed like it promised. Even Contacts are still blur...
I will say that it's FAST though..

All of the current ROMS have *some* level of Blur. Since we cannot bypass the Moto Kernel, there are some levels of base code that just have to be there.
Tranquility, Apex, zapX, and Rubix 0.5 were all built on the 2.3.15 release and then removed as much of the blur components as they could and still have it function.
Fission & Rubix 1.0 built from a base that came out of the Droid2 SDK which appears to be very stock Android and therefore, they are a little more 'blur-less' than others. Which is both good and bad. Time is showing that some of the blur components have some nice functionality that people are missing when they go completely blur-less.

This is absolutely true and was the same for the D1 except it wasn't Blur, but you can't build AOSP for D1 either without using the extract-files.sh to pull all of the proprietary components that make the phone work.
It's a basic truth about phone firmware.

can anyone tell me how the contacts list comes up aosp style or blur< i noticed blur has a thing to merge my phone contact with fb and twitter< without having to use the same name on fb and my contact info. please let me know thanks guys!!

I hate to say this, but maybe you should post this on either droidworld or another forum with an active thread. I doubt you'd get much support over here, not sure why. Tranquil. doesn't seem to be popular around here. I didn't see you mention trying a nandroid restore.... did you?

So far, I've had like maybe one or two glitches.... sometimes after a reboot the boot screen gets left on the lock screen, so you can still unlock your phone, but you have to guess where the sliders are.
another is that the calendar widget doesn't work.
Other then those two, the rom is FAST, stable, and battery life has been great. Worth it to me in my opinion... It's not an ASOP "experience" though... it's more like a hybrid.
Like it so far though, it's my daily driver.
Edit: Also, this applies to STOCK people (running the 2.2 OTA).... I was odexed, completely stock..... installed this rom with ease: no wiping, no formatting, nada. AND it deodexed my phone for me.... LOVE THAT.

I have bought tasker aS well (the stock rom doesn't let the os sleep when gps is enabled so I bought it to turn it on and off for all my apps)
Now I like your idea of syncing every 30 but I use google voice exclusively. And the voice app. Does that mean if I turn off my sync I won't get my messages in a timely mater?

This rom also doesn't seem to sleep when wick is on. Am I missing something? Anyway I do see how this can save a lot a battery with the screen dining and everything. I had to wipe my phone to get it to work. Last time I tried when I booted every system app was force closing. I feel like this is a little slower than rubix but way faster then stock. Could be too the drawer just doesn't feel right. Too bouncy for me to use quickly. Ill probably go to pro launcher. But if I don't want to how do I customize the 4 apps at the bottom?

TnT Mail app

I know I might be in the minority, but I actually liked the TnT mail app that came with the original TnT. Currently, I am running the TnT 2.5, clockwork mod. And am extremely happy with it operationally. I tried the Mail'd app, and had some problems getting it to check for emails reliably. I agree that that app is beautiful, but only half finished. So, is there a way to install just the old mail app from Tnt? and if so, where might I find the app separately? Thanks.

Sorry, I can't help with the TNT app, but have you tried the Samsung app? From the Galaxy Tab? I use it and love the look. It also works too!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=895075&highlight=samsung+mail

I liked the stock TnT mail app as well, but I don't know of anyone who's pulled the apk.

Thanks
... for the suggestion. I checked out the Samsung thread, but the link from that thread to download leads me to some odd sites that will not let me download the file. I will keep trying, though. Thanks.

My girlfriend really liked the stock app as well and I would love to be able to get it on her tab for help. I would love to know if anyone's successfully pulled this and have gotten it to work on our 'aftermarket' ROM's (no pun intended)

Yeah I liked the original mail app as well - tekrhino uploaded it for me.
I used Titanium Backup to uninstall the current email app then I was able to install this one. It does work, now if it would only get my yahoo mail as well I would like it even more.
Currently I'm using it on TNT 4.2.5 and it is working with no issues. If you have issues let me know and I will go looking for my notes on the install.

I used this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=960315&highlight=setup+yahoo+mail) to setup Yahoo in whatever app is in Calk's ROM. It works.

Following the directions in the link worked for me - now the system e-mail app will do both accounts with no problem.
I had to make 1 change: instead of SSL for the smtp I had to use "SSL (Accept all certifcates)"

just wanna make sure I'm not reading two different things here. you DO have the stock tnt email app working? Is the the apk from post #8 here?

Yes the stock e-mail app - wood background and a coffee cup.

maybe Im getting 'no love' because i'm vegaN?

Yeah it seems to be a no go for Vegan. Too bad it was about the only thing I liked from TNT.

Me too. The standard black background email app is fine on my phone but doesn't take advantage of the larger tablet screen the way the tnt email app does. Yes the wood background looks dorky. But I like the way it shows some of the message text.
The Samsung email port app looks appealing but it doesn't support Exchange yet and I need that in addition to IMAP.
I just copied /system/apps to my sdcard before flashing Mountain Laurel. Then I just side loaded email.apk.
... which works, until I have to reboot. Then I'm back to black. Anyone know what's going on here?

Exactly that one!

"VZW" 2.3.6 ROM - UPDATED 2/23/12 Themed

INSERT USUAL DISCLAIMER HERE. I THINK (HOPE) YOU ALL KNOW THE RISKS BY NOW. Blah blah brick, blah blah not my fault, you know.
Well, using Willis111's Canadian Bell 2.3.6 build from here, somemadcaaant, ZOMBI3, and I have been slowly patching this up to work on the XT862.
I've made up a stock (tweaked for VZW) 2.3.6 ROM and a lightly debloated one as well. Both have the same build.prop tweaks for battery life, the usual wifi scan, as well as the camera video modes tweak, plus some other stuff tacked onto the end of the build.prop.
What we changed was the build.prop (IIRC, I used a Liberty3 one that I touched up to my liking), eri.xml inside framework_res.apk, and libmoto_ril.so to get this up and running on the XT862. Since, I have added in 5.7.905 system apps to get some things running (MMS messaging mainly).
I have flashed these without a wipe (over SD 4.5 I think) and it seems to be fine, although I've only had it running maybe an hour now, so I can't attest to battery life. It may be fine without a wipe, it may be better with it. IDK.
One note for HandCent users, go into HC, menu> settings> application settings> default messaging application> all(sms & mms). This should fix double texts.
NOT WORKING:
It seems the first boot bootloops. Just battery pull and restart. It should boot. I'm running this debloated build exactly.
My stock camera FCs when entering panoramic mode. 3rd party apps such as ProCapture still work. This will be addressed after I get 1% battery and power menu buttons added (Thanks to BuckMarble!)
Here's the links to my DropBox.

1% Mod Still getting reboots, experimental only
Dark Theme (incomplete theming, WIP)
Hopeful goals...
Working 1% Mod
Dark (WIP) & light theme
Power button reboot options
Pulldown power widgets
Pulldown music controls??
...and, I know how to do none of those. Anyone wanna do it or teach/guide me though it?

Oh boy! I can teach the reboot and 1% stuff(gotta dig up the code for this one, been a while) I've recently become quite the android.policy master. Lol. As for the messaging stuff, im not sure where to go with that one.
EDIT: noticed quite a few com files missing from the framework folder that our xt862 uses. Compare an xt862 vzw rom to this one and try patching in the missing ones and see if that helps with the messaging. In system/framework.

Touched up the /system/framework folder with the missing files. If it isn't apparent already, I'm pretty new to this and really don't have too much of an idea of what I'm doing. Oh well, gotta learn somehow!
EDIT: Well, this didn't fix MMS, but it couldn't have hurt. Also, I've been getting some FCs from conversations.apk when receiving a text. I'll look into it tomorrow and keep working at this.

Why is the Debloated version removed?
Is there any problem with it? Because I am about to flash it now....

The next thing I would do is go through all the rest of the folders and compare file for file and see if anything else is missing.

Nice work,
@jchenny i'd prefer a bloated version to go nuts on anyways.
Definately deserves it's own thread to be sure, you will have reboot/screenshot power menu functions plus power widgets and whatever else is needed on the weekend unless some1 else wants to get it done? Looking at you buckmarble and ZOMBI3, i'm using my phone for oncall work this week.
Again awesome release, can't wait to try it.
Edit: Grab my giant APN list apns-conf.zip from my sig link below and see if that fixes mms, most providers have been added manually... could simply be the conversations app not working correctly with the cdma buildprop commands changed and/or rot.mot.phonemode.vzwglobalphone=1, swap out with the vzw versions of conversations.apk, mms.apk, messaging.apk, might also have to swap out the bluremail.apk, bluremailengine.apk and blursnmessagingengine.apok or perhaps use the aosp versions?
Could it be a google restoring settings thing, always gives me grief when i forget this after flashing lol.

I can get the power menu/widgets/etc stuff in. Would rather teach red how to do it though. Expand the knowledge base of the new developers. I like to give back what I've learned so that at some point we can all help each other. Hopefully your apn stuff fixes the mms problem he's got.

Debloated is back up. I think all I changed was removing Blur Car Dock and adding in my preferred Google Car Dock. I believe I left the Blur Multimedia Dock intact.

I would like to learn this rather than just having it done as well. I'd like to further my knowledge on this kind of modding (do I dare call it dev, I feel like I haven't done much really) stuff.
@SMC, where is that APN list in your sig?
As I play with this, I'm going to try tossing together a build for myself (and others?) to test with 5.7.905 deodexed system apps from ZOMBI3's .zip. Also, Hash has a deodexed 5.6.890 build on his blog right? I'm blocked here on the school network.

Red, shoot me a pm with your email for gtalk.

True true, pardon my eagerness guys.
You will find the apn list on the top link in my signature, will be at the bottom of the page with the files.
I suspect you will have all the kinks out by the weekend, just in time for me to flash lol.

Well, I patched up the APN file and that didn't fix it, but it did add "Verizon Wireless" to the status bar...time to revert or fix that. Hmm. Adding back the old APN file didn't fix it up.
FIXED: Hex edited some null entries into eri.xml.

Sent.
EDIT: 4:15 PM. I received a picture! It seems kind of weird how it came through, but it coming through is what matters. Hitting download doesn't do anything but just fail to DL, but again, I got a photo so...IDC!
This project, and subsequent thread, has become my baby. I keep wanting to work on it.

I can't seem to download the debloated version. Dropbox gives me a 404.

I believe I have the freshest build on my DropBox. IIRC, I removed messaging.apk and dropped in mms.apk and that enabled MMS messaging. For my purposes, it's a fully working build. I haven't had any errors. Keep me updated if you hit any.
I think I'm going to start adding a time stamp to my .zips, I can't keep them straight. (Now I've added date and time stamps to preserve my sanity, or what remains.)

Oh yea! This is getting themed! I taught myself UOT Kitchen (it's so easy) and applied a META-INF workaround listed on their site to fix a flashing error and it's looking great. And is it just me, or does this boot quickly? Maybe I don't pay attention...
New links in OP.

Nice very good job theme, and one percent awesome already, haven't tried it though, I got stuck on after the safe boot menu something went wrong no big deal tho ill check it out keep it up though I wanna see that reboot and screenshot from you soon way to go ! Congrats

Nice work, its all done lol.
I remember having media player control status widgets, or what ever its called, on my old LG optimus 2x and I liked it, very convenient - maybe we can port that over or use code, like adding the controls to the far right as you scroll thru.
If that's makes sense.
Definitely lots of performance tweaks in there for boot, memory and gui speed.
Sent from my DROID3 using xda premium

I definitely want to implement more tweaks for battery life, speed, etc. Also, the 1% mod wasn't playing nicely with services.jar and causing reboots, so I marked that as experimental. I'm talking to BuckMarble on GTalk and he's helping me do this since my current knowledge is minimal in comparison.
EDIT: I'll be trying this later...
