Crap- just realized the sprint tv app is gone. any way to get it back? Are there any other tv apps?

You can find the apk on the dev forums. Some of the roms have the apks for all of the apps they removed. I believe Fresh has them all.

Ah, I didn't realize there was a removed apps folder on my sd card.

I'm now running the 7/24 CM6 build and it is so much better than anything else that I'm keeping it even though there's no 4G yet. I came from Fresh 1.0.1 with functional 4G which was great but doesn't come close to CM6. Goodbye forever, sense UI.
reb,
How long do you want to ignore this user?
why do you like it so much?
Mr. Snerdley
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Reb-
-options, options, options!
-FROYO!
-speed
-AOSP (death to sense)
-bluetooth mouse & keyboard
-and more!

You should nandroid and try it. Or at least watch some videos of it.

I am a launch day G1 guy and former MT3G owner so maybe I'm a little biased but cyanogen kicks ass!

Is anyone else having a facebook contact sync issue? I used Facebook to give me pictures for contacts and they all just disappeared from my phone and now Facebook for HTC Sense says I have no contacts. It is set to sync...

And did anyone else notice that your download tab in the Android Market now says Sprint?

Mr. Snerdley is right. I too have been using cyanogenmod since my G1, and again on the Nexus. You got some of the best android Dev's colobrating on this thing, Cyanogen, Chris Soyers, Koush, Toast (new name to me but seems big in the CDMA realm). You really should not be judging based on his nightly releases as they are PRE-Alpha builds and released just becasue of the following they have. The extra features that he has built in are amazing, but you will not see most of those until the release candidate. I would suggest waiting until at least the relase candidate then checking it out. These nightlies are buggy, but what can you expect when a BOT builds a ROM based on 20 different peoples commits they made during the day.

atm - Noticed the Sprint tab last night, however my wifes still says Download.

What about your contacts? Something is screwy! A quick google search and it looks like is is HTC Sense phones no matter the carrier.
Robk
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I have never used the HTC contacts, use Dialer one. Anyway it is happening to the CM6 people as well, and that has all sense wiped from it. The sprint tab really does not bother me, but I want to know why and how that changed.
Fuzzbutt
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Atm, I had that problem. I fixed it by clearing out the Facebook data in the settings and removing the accounts from accounts and sync then add them again.

Are those using Froyo still enjoying it? I'm waiting for them to get 4G, HDMI, and FM radio. I might just make a nandroid backup and try it out for a few days/weeks. Just wondering about opinions a few days into using it.
Mr. Snerdley
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I don't miss 4g to the point I want to switch from CM6. Never used the HDMI or FM radio so that's no big deal.

RC 1 is out as of last night and I'm downloading it as I type.

My friend is running stock 2.1 on his evo and only getting 3.1-3.5 Mflops on Linpack. Isn't that slow even for stock? my hero with fresh toast ROM and overclock gets 2.9-3.3
TefIon Don
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I would assume thats slow. On the Fresh 1.0.1 I get 7.8 MFLOPS. But once CM6 comes out with an actual release (non-beta or RC) then I'll switch and enjoy Froyo!
Mr. Snerdley
How long do you want to ignore this user?
~38 MFLOPS here.
TefIon Don
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Damn...can't wait til I try out CM6
AggieT
How long do you want to ignore this user?
~42 mflops using the latest CM6 nightly.
Robk
How long do you want to ignore this user?
For all those using CM6 Do not forget to download chrome-to-phone (works with firefox too). Better than the mflops with Froyo.

Just saw that. But this would be for people that aren't rooted. CM6 is 2.2 and will be a lot better than whatever HTC sends out.
nai06
How long do you want to ignore this user?
not rooted so that would be awesome.


Although Im not crazy about having more crap apps that I dont want put on the phone.
AggieT
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Any idea when CM6 will have a finished product? I tried it but switched back to fresh until CM gets everything working properly.
DonaldFDraper
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Froyo

Right before the weekend I planned to Root

I think I might just wait to do either until CM's full release is available and installed by a few of you non-n00bz.
TefIon Don
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Once he gets 4G working on CM6 then I'm all over it. I use 4G at least a couple hours per day. Plus Fresh is stable and pretty quick, so I can deal with it.

I'll be checking for updates all day tomorrow.

Hope this fixes a lot of issues.

Handbrake and set it to ipod/iphone. .mp4 works well.
