hero 2.2 apps here

all im seeing on here is "no that doesnt work with 2.2" so im wondering what the point of 2.2 is if theres nothing good you can install on it.
...anyways, list your best hero 2.2 apps here please!!!

what apps don't work with 2.2?? whenever i flashed a 2.2 rom coming from a 2.1 rom, i backed up all my apps, and then restored them without any problems.. (and i have over 85 apps) i admit i had to do a few updates to some of them, but thats about it...

I've had a couple not work on 2.2. One of them was friend stream which I miss.

What apps are you having problems with. I haven't had any problems with apps not working on 2.2. If anything it would probably be the other way around with people on 2.1 asking why 2.2 apps don't work on their phone.

Friendstream us based on htc framework, and the 2.2 cm6 build is aosp, that's why it doesn't work. Maybe one day we'll have a sense-based 2.2, but not yet.

Oh ok, I knew HTC framework wouldn't work on 2.2 but I didn't realize FriendStream was HTC based. Good to know, thanks for the info!

What roms is netflix workin on

???

None at the moment. Netflix disabled it on the evo until they fix it to work with the new updates. If you search the market you wont even find it. Its been pulled about 4 days now so I don't know how long it will take them.

Works fine for me here..I'm watching Rampage right now at work actually..I just restore my version from titanium backup and it always works fine.

Wow,they did pull it off the market.
I have had this app for about a month now, works on my girls stock rom, as well as mikfroyo 4.6.1
I will say the apk gets bigger and bigger, I think its been through a few reincarnations. 2mb, 5mb, 18mb.
If you search around you should find the apk to install netflix.

You must be using the first version that wasn't updated. The updated version won't work on sense or aosp for me I just keep getting errors and it all started the day they pulled it.

Working on miui, ive got the last version before it got pulled

Yeah I figured out why mine wasn't working lol; cm7 working also!

So does anyone have a working apk
so if your joint works from titanium back up is there a way to get a working apk? my backup i guess was corrupted cause it wont let me restore it shows it being there but when i click on it there is no restore button

It seems like Cyanogenmod and MUIU are your best bet and some froyo based roms are still working. I can confirm that it is working on the latest MIUI rom but it is not working on Synergy or any other Gingerbread roms with Sense 2.1 on it (this includes the latest sprint update). Also because people have made a big deal out of netflix not working with the update it seems that netflix is now having trouble with some of the old froyo based roms.
It sucks because I love Sense and so now I have to choose between Sense and Netflix. Hopefully they fix the issue soon, but I'm guessing that it will be a couple of weeks before they do

Heres a version a friend sent me that updates and streams on every rom Ive tried so far.

Working here on the Vaelpak GB beta.
Whiteice

yup... jamsterzaks version is working for me as well on cm 7 stable...

evo deck for me
I am using the latest evo deck rom GB 2.3.4. I got the apk in the themes and apps forum that supports landscape. Works great for me

Netflix is working on cm7. I downloaded it the day it came out and keep it on a nandroid backup. If you have a version that works I would nandroid before you do anything just to keep it simple. I made that mistake on my nook color...... now I have chipmunks on my NC and to lazy to find another work around.

I had it on Myn's warm 2.2, just got it working on CyanogenMod7 latest stable version.

Skype w/ video works flawlessly w/ EP1Q

Like the title says, Skype works as it should on EP1Q. FFC and all. Enjoy!

Stock or the hacked apk?

From the market.

Seems nice but I'm more of an official guy, I'd rather stay on Froyo til the official GB comes out. Currently the leaks are pretty buggy and don't have PBJ/very much ROM support. Plus, the hacked version of Skype works fine, thanks for letting us know though.

I wasn't aware, but there is a hacked version for Froyo that allows the front facing camera to work?

It "works" on froyo, just not the front camera :-/ No reason you shouldn't be able to download it. The Charge is a supported device.

They say that GB has something for the front camera that Froyo doesn't. Which is complete bull**** because stuff like Fring works perfectly...the Skype devs are just making stuff up because they can't code.

I can't get it to work. Don't seem to have a video option
EDIT:: I got it to work by restarting the phone. Video options suddenly appeared.

Try mu builds HERE that works with many froyo FFCs. If your Droid has the same FFC API as the other Samsung devices, it should work. I also keep adding more devices so if it doesn't work on you, maybe you can give me files from your devices so I can try to add it.

Just installed the latest version that you linked to onto my SAMSUNG DROID CHARGE running Humble 1.51.
I called someone on a MAC and the video did not work (not sure what version of skype client was used on MAC side). The call worked but the video option failed.
I called someone on Win 7 with the latest Skype version (downloaded over the weekend) and the FFC video worked fine. Did not try the back camera.
Thanks for this awesomeness!!

The link for the hacked Skype apk is broken.

Running Froyo - Skype worked fine for me last Friday when I made a video call to my sister that lives in Australia. She was using her Apple laptop and I was using my Droid Charge. I also Skyped my buddy's iPhone4 with no issues.
I don't use Skype from the Market, I used the one that was posted around these boards. It works fine.

Netflix through hdmi?

Is there a way to make this work? I've switched to mikfroyo so that the ROM is a 2.2, and i also tried the HDMwIn app from the market...I can get videos from the SD card and YouTube to work, but netflix won't work properly...sometimes the sound will come out, but no picture...
Does anybody know a fix to this? I searched netflix hdmi, but it only pulled up some other ROM threads...

Try cm7 with hdmwin. Maybe there are drm problems
Having trouble with AOSP? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1295702

This is my wifes phone and she's not an aosp kinda gal, plus I think I tried cm7 on her phone a couple months back and something went wrong somewhere, can't really remember now...
Do you or anyone else have any other ideas? Could someone maybe send me their netflix.apk that is known to work with hdmi, maybe that could be the issue? Or maybe tell me how to fix whatever may be occuring, as long as I can do it over the phone, cuz my computer is a paperweight at the moment cuz of a cracked screen...

I am a noobie to things here, but i have been rooted for some time now and I do alot of reading to learn things from xda. I was also having this problem with both my wife and my EVO. Both are rooted and are running r3charged final. They both use golden monkey kernels. And the problem is in the kernel. So I did a lot of reading up on this, as i always do and found that chopsuye v.9.1.7 will allow you to use hdmi. I have tested it myself and its works the best. Hope this helped.

Could be a number of things really. My wife runs Synergy(Myn's) on 2.3 with the HDMwIn app and the recommended kernel and its perfect. When you first open the HDMwIn app it tells you to download some daemon add on, did you? When i tried without that it didnt work. Also, it recommends a custom kernel in the app t0o and even has a link. Thats the one i use and it works perfect. Keep in mind though that this is all on Android 2.3, maybe you should update.........

I actually had her on a 2.3 ROM and I downloaded the daemon and it did not work, but I didn't do the kernel because I noticed that the HDMwIn app said that it probly won't work on a 2.3, so that's why I switched to a 2.2, but i haven't done the kernel yet, that will be my next move, its just taking me a lil bit as her phone is not my priority...

Yea even though the app says its not compatible with 2.3 the kernel devs have added the proper tweaks to make it work right. this is the one i am referring to below...

I would suggest FEARMEde if you don't want the Bliss look. Hybrid is being updated tomorrow, FEARMEde has already been updated.
MikG is a close second.
Word of advice: mount "Data" in "Mounts" section of Amon Ra before flashing the kernel. Newer Sense ports are delicate with that for some reason. I always do it now.
Edit: Hybrid and FEARMEde are both updated now. And they are awesome.

Which rom?

What is the best froyo rom? No force close problems.. Can stream video with no issues from netflix.. Crackle.. Streaming live tv.. Pandora.. Thanks
Sent from my VM670 using Tapatalk

Calk+Clem is one of the more popular froyo roms. Should meet all your requirements.

VEGAn 5.1.1 is in my opinion the best. It boots up crazy fast and it's very stable. I've used it for about eight months and watched plenty of videos on it.

VEGAn 5.1.1 is for bootloader version 1.1. From what I've read version 1.2 of the bootloader doesn't give you anything more than making it easier to update over the air to the most recent TapNTap ROM. With that said, most of the newer custom ROMs are for version 1.2 of the bootloader but then again most of the newer ROMs are not FroYo either.

Try FrankenTAB EC 1.0, it is Froyo based and works real well. BTW it is BL 1.2 based.
http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/23486-rommod-12-frankentab-v100-rc1-g-tabletzpad-t2/

I'll second FrankenTAB
I had been using Beasty up until a couple of weeks ago after trying FrankenTAB and thats what I've been using since.
My understanding is Pixlerider basically used Brilliant Corners as a base and modified it using bits and pieces of other Froyo roms, kernels...etc, thus how he came up with the name =P
The end result is a solid rom that's also visually pleasing and although I have run across a few minor issues (some apps not showing up on market, audio sometimes going mute when plugging headphones) they were easy to work around.

I just got one of these for the wife for christmas. With the Frankentab, does the camera still work(skype).
Basically I'm looking for one that has these abilities in this order
Android Market
Camera works
Stability
last is speed, but from what I've read anything will speed this up from stock. any help would be appreciated.

Frankentab is great and everything works.. I ended up with the beasty combo as it just seems to be the fastest and everything seems to work
