No kidding it has a mind of its own, it causing me to get ready to start drinking a liquid dinner. As a long shot do you think the radio could be causing some of the issue? I am running 2.22.28.25 on my trusty reliable G1. I know battery life can be bad with some of the ROMs. All kidding aside I appreciate the assistance from you and everyone that is jumping in
[G1 Android Development] flyers00:
Just got your email and copying it to the sdcard
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
You're not the only one that might start drinking a liquid dinner.

I don't think that it is the radio, since AndroidKills has already proven that it works on 2.22.28.25. But you can always try to load the 2708 on it with this ROM.

Before you do that though, try reloading the market first to see if it will fix the problem. Since you got all the tools to remove the vending.apk in your hand now.
[G1 Android Development] flyers00:
Amen to liquid dinner!! I am not switching radios. I am going to try and use the tools to remove the vending.apk.
[G1 Android Development] Chocolate Columbo:
I've had my own early, and very small, temporary issues that seem to go with a bit of perseverance. Seriously... I'd be bashing my head if we had swapped phones.

I don't know sh*t to a shovel compared to the guys trying to help you, but if you've already wiped a good few times trying to get it working, I'm not sure about doing anything with a vending.apk. I would be looking at if this problem occurs with other ROMs since first mentioning it, starting with a clean SD card (I can't guess what is left but even a wipe/re-partition might help) - Throwing stones at pigeons I know...

I wouldn't look at the radio too much [since I've used 27.08 with 2.8.2 -whatever the difference] and 28.25 with this and they've had the same working outcome with market. I suppose we just don't know, but go with best guess. At what point do you receive these problems/force closes? Is it completely random?

I would appreciate it, will give it tonight and keep you guys posted. Appreciate the help
[G1 Android Development] flyers00:
Its really frustrating that it won't go. Whole process started with a clean partition on the sd card. We are all scratching our heads on this one.

I'm able to flash and run the roms out there but this one is kicking my butt. The fc msgs appear randomly but last install all was good except for market
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
Did you try reinstalling vending.apk yet?
[G1 Android Development] flyers00:
Thanks for checking up, I have the ROM flashed and I was just about to reinstall vending.apk. I have the vending.apk file on my SD and I am going to delete the vending.apk from /sys/app and replace it with this one. I am sorry to say the vending.apk and reinstalling gapps.zip didnt work. I also cleared cache/data for market and also did wipe data in AMONRA.

Time to watch the NFL draft and drink another cold one
[G1 Android Development] GetTargetedFans:
Whats driving me nuts is that, when I set the keyboard setting to English it still does not display the right characters when for example I want to type } it doesplays the Spanish characters I believe instead. Very frustrating. Any solutions? Also as for the battery drain I am on SuperASOP ST@-DM 6.0 with 2.6.3.12 farmatito pershoot kernel and I would like to overwrite 2.6.35.13-patches-20110428 battery patch kernel, can I do this? Thanks
[G1 Android Development] Chocolate Columbo:
I have the same issue. I noticed this first on Terminal Emulator when I couldn't even type a hyphen or backslash. I just kept trying the same regular shortcut over and over, tried searching up why I "couldn't type one", then had a glance on movilzona where they had mentioned that the key mappings are wrong and that it would be fixed in the next version.

Hyphen is Alt G, Backslash is Alt S (Yes, right next to D I know), but those strange bracket things? No idea where they are.
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
There is a fixed (already posted in one of the thread) that you could you, I have not got to it myself. All you have to do is download a different GB ROM (english supported), extract the file and copy the related file folder through ADB to your phone. That will fix the key map problem.

UPDATE: Here is the fixed.
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
Another thing I have been noticing not sure if it happens to anyone elses. But everytime I tried to move apps to SD card and after I did that after I reboot into recovery and trying to reboot back. It freezed at the splash screen. I had to reflash the ROM to get out of it. It might be that I have to re-format and partition my SD card. (I have not done that yet, too lazy and didn't want to loose some of the data on there yet.) I saved my data last night so I might just tried it. So I can move the apps to SD card without having to get my G1 in that freeze mode again if I reboot into recovery.
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
Well, what's the word? Are we good to go? or, do we go another round with this one?
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Yeah what he said. And I assume the system permissions aren't set to rw? I might be able to get u fixed. I got a flashable zip for the transparent market o might be able to email u

We are not good to go unfortunately. I ran a logcat when accessing the market and will post it.
[G1 Android Development] flyers00:
What he said above, I just posted a logcat when I tried to access the market. If you could email me the file, I will give it one more shot. Thanks for the follow up
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Do u have a file explorer? Or anyone here thant can go to system/bin and see if anything in there says something like rwsystem? U need to change system to rw and delete the vending.apk. then copy the new one to system/app

Sent from transparent xda app by theimpaler747
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
Also, from looking at your logcat.txt. Go to Setting > Applications > Manage Applications > Download Manager

Then clear data for the app.
[G1 Android Development] flyers00:
I have windows file explorer and android commander installed on my system. Can it be done through android commander or ADB? I am open for suggestions and I am sorry to be a bother with this
[G1 Android Development] flyers00:
Will give that a shot as well and see what happens
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Yes. Do what he said. It can be done through adb shell. Not sure of the remount code to get system to rw off hand though. It's built into fbl so I just opened the terminal and typed

su

rwsystem

(It gave a printout I can't remember, hit home button opened titanium and deleted the vending.apk opened terminal again)

cp sdcard/vending.apk system/app

reboot

Let it reboot and I had a clear market.

If it's still does not work. Also, try this just for the heck of it. I am curious if this will fix your problem at hand.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Ouch. I think that would be a last resort. Lol. What a pain.

If u can open a terminal on your phone and type the remount code to get system to rw and hit home button. Delete the vending.apk then reboot to recovery I will post the link to the thread with the clear market. It has a flashable zip in it. Use the HTC zip

I never needed to use custom mtd for this rom and when I was using it it did work very nicely for a gb rom, not as stable as ezgb,cos or ads magpie tho.
[G1 Android Development] Chocolate Columbo:
I'm not even sure what custom MTD 'actually' is. I've read up on descriptions when many other people have asked, but it doesn't really make it any clearer to me. OK, resize partitions, but what makes that any different to the 15MB boot that is flashed except that you don't choose the sizes? Anyway, isn't that a kernel? Is that some form of custom MTD adjustment? What does "MTD" even mean?

Anyway, an update has been posted. It seems to be primarily to fix the camera issue with Magic. I'm testing it out on the G1 to see how this kernel differs from the old one.
[G1 Android Development] azrash:
the 14/15mb ramhack needs only the 2708/2825 radio + 1.33.0013d SPL + the correct kernel. that is basically it, nothing more than that. hope this clears up any confusion

custom MTD? imagine your pc, you can partition your hard disk into different drive sizes, there are 3 main partitions in a g1, system, cache and data. system is only for system files and system apps, cache is for cache and data is where u install other apps and store their data. By reducing the partition size of system and cache, you'll get more space for data partition, which means you can install more apps! :D but ofcourse, there is always sd-ext as an alternative storage apps space :)
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
The only problem I have is the battery drain. Especially when I have my wifi on. Like today at full charged after 3 hours I got 65 percent left. I might try the same radio as androidkills, since she said that her battery seem to be stable.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Have you flashed the new kernel for the camera fix? it says something about battery life on the site in 1 of the comments. Don't know if it will help but worth a shot. I'm flashing right now. Weird bootanimation sounds. Lol
[G1 Android Development] borwin:
Great ROM.

I've flashed it since a week, and now, with 12$ worth new battery, after 36 hours, with really heavy use , I'm still on 20%. Not bad!

Now I'm little confused and a bit nasty: is it a bug (draining battery) or just ours batteries are gone?

Don't shoot on me...:D:D
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
That is what I am trying to determine to see if it's not that I have to replace my battery. If that's the case, I will buy a new battery.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Well i got all flashed up to the new version and everything went smooth as can be. No problems at all with market. Are you having any issues Been? I'll report back on the battery life but i did flash the new kernel for the camera fix so don't know if that will make a difference.
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
No other issue just battery drain and the keyboard mapping. Too lazy to fix the key map issue. Since the dev will look into it.
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
@ johnson8cyl - OK! I downloaded the 2825 radio, will try that when I have a chance. Let me know your assessment on the battery.

EDIT: Hurh? I think I downloaded the wrong one. LOL! Let me find the one without the S.
[G1 Android Development] AndroidKills:
My battery is still pretty awesome right now :D

but been experiencing a few lack of memory scenarios

for example keyboard wont open and when it does it simply goes back down/off.

umm phone slows from time to time but a reboot fixes that.
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
What is your partition size? And how big is your SD card?
[G1 Android Development] Chocolate Columbo:
That was another explanation but it didn't really answer my questions. :(

Thanks for replying though.
[G1 Android Development] mat0122:
can you give me a link to ramhack kernel? i can't find this, but i have good radio and hboot

thanks
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
The radio/spl are for extra ram

[G1 Android Development] mat0122:
so i dont need any special kernel? radio and hboot are enough?
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
There is a 15mb boot to dream file and a new kernel with the camera fix for the magic (not sure if either is needed for the g1 on 6.0 as i have a mt3g). Which build are you trying to flash? 6.0? 2.8.2 version needs the 15mb boot to dream file flashed after the rom i know that.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Superblur15mb boot to dream is for 2.8.2 version at least (only needed for the g1). Prob for 6.0 as well but not sure. DS-6.0.1 is for the camera fix on the magic but i'm sure will work for the g1 as well. I'll attach them both. Flash in recovery after rom
[G1 Android Development] mat0122:
thanks ;)

this kernel works with other roms?
[G1 Android Development] Chocolate Columbo:
The kernel worked fine for me. I had a few other unrelated issues with the phone forcibly wanting to reboot, but it wasn't because of the kernel. I'll use the opportunity to wipe and test some other stuff out.
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
The force boot is due to your SD card. I had that happens on the 1st 2 flash. After I repartitioned the SD card. The problem solved.
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
Thanks downloaded for keepsake on my G1. I'm on the run this morning. Just in case.
[G1 Android Development] Chocolate Columbo:
That would have been about my 9th wipe/re-flash. No, I'm quite sure my issue there was unrelated. It also instantly went away once I wiped (and this time didn't re-partition) and switched ROM. I'm quite sure it was an app collision issue. Most likely with Widget Launcher and LauncherPro or Custom Launcher Icons since it most commonly crashed when using either of them.
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
That could also be true, I have noticed that in some instant.
[G1 Android Development] AndroidKills:
partition size = 96

sd card = 8gigs

Review

Well here is my short review so far.

I am using the kernel with the camera fix for the magic with build-6.0

swap off

CC disabled

CPU 245\528

lock home and mess in mem

apps2ext active

Nothing special really. Runs really well with only a couple of issues that only happenned once. The phone froze once and i have had one random reboot. Haven't tested bluetooth yet but will shortly with wifi just to check it out further. 23 hrs after charging it has 19% right now. Normal use.

few calls

few texts

surfing xda

facebook

reading the bible app in church this morning

ect.

Pleased so far. Wonder if there are other kernels to test out. Guess ill have to do a nandroid and test some out just for fun
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
That's pretty good. Mine constant drain with wifi on. Maybe I'll do the nano backup and flash it with this version to see what's different on it.
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
BTW! I need a copy of the 2825 radio. Can u upload it?
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Sorry bro. Was shopping. Walmart.....Ugh. Here u go. I just flashed it from recovery. Ezterry was nice enough to put safety nets in it :)

Too big to upload it but see if you can grab it from here

http://www.4shared.com/file/0KEn4CKf/update_2222825_S.html
[G1 Android Development] AndroidKills:
thanks! i will try this out later today!

btw i checked out your sig, and noticed that you're on v6 is there a big change from 2.8.2?
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
Thanks, flashed it last night. We'll see what up. As far as right now 5 hours of standby with wifi turn off, it used about 7% of the battery.
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
You are welcome. I have not noticed much of the different on the load. But speeds improved a lot more from what I can tell. Feel a lot more stable. Oh yea! If you have to re-flash it because of any problem, I noticed it keep your profile setting. I don't know if it is the way I flashed or not.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Did u flash the newer kernel as well?

sent from my transparent xda app by the impaler747
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
Yes I did,

Flashed SuperAosp 6.0.1

Flashed DM 15MB-Boot

Flashed radio 28.25 S.

My battery life (with wifi off) seem to be drain about 2% every hour. :confused: That's 48% every 24 hours.
[G1 Android Development] flyers00:
Just checking in and wondering if I should even attempt flashing the ROM and the updates to see if it corrects the Market iussue from last week. Glad to see this ROM is still progressing
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
If you want to go another round, we can see if that problem will go away.

This time stay away from the MTD. Make sure you wipe, wipe, wipe!

First flash SuperAosp 6.0.1

Then Flash DM 15MB-Boot

Also, re-partition your SD card. (make sure you save the data you don't want to loose.

Another thing to do after the re-partition of your SD card. put the SuperAosp ROM and DM 15MB-Boot in the root of your SD card. I come to find out that it come in handy.

That should be all you need. Since you already have the radio/SPL ready.
[G1 Android Development] flyers00:
I am glutton for punishment, I will back everything up and give it one final go. If it works great and if not I will wait for an updated version to the rom. I will stay away from the MTD on this effort. WIll let you know what happens
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
The reason I said to say away from MTD, because (to my knowledge) everyone that have a successful flash (with minor problem) did not use MTD. And I read in one of the thread that MTD with some of the ROM have market problem.

So I want to make sure it's not the MTD that is causing your problem.
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
@ johnson8cyl - WOW! Battery gone down 10% more since 6:27 this morning. And it's on standby mode. Guess it's time for a new battery.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
I have a question. What exactly is the 15mb-boot.zip? A 2708 kernel to get the dream to boot with the new radio/spl? That was my assumption. There's not really information on it from what i have read through. I believe the 6.0.1.zip is a newer kernel to get rid of the camera problem in the mt3g.

If i'm right then if you flash the 15mb.zip and then the 6.0.1.zip (or the other way around) then you are just flashing one kernel and then overriding it with another before you boot. Essentially just ending up with the last kernel you flashed being the one your'e using. Can someone clarify?
[G1 Android Development] flyers00:
It's a mixed bag with the MTD, some ROMs work and others dont. I staryed away and I am flashing everything now. Will let you know the outcome once the phone boots up. Like I said if it works great and if not, I will wait for an update. Heres to crossing the fingers and hoping it works
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
Do not really know what the 15MB-boot is for. I'll try to reflash the 6.0.1 now without the 15MB-Boot and will let you know.

@ flyers00 - try flashing your and exclude the 15MB-boot.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Wow. I would assume so. That 6.0.1.zip kernel is based off ezterry's new kernel and is supposed to have better battery life and improved memory management. The later being more important to me really. That is drainnig pretty fast
[G1 Android Development] flyers00:
OK, I iwll flash the 6.0 and then 6.01 and then restart the phone
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
Well I just re-flashed it just now. And the kernel is different than before. Now the Kernal Version is 2.6.36.4-st-ezgb-v1. We'll see, my current battery status is at 71%. I'll report the consumption use in a little while.
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
Just flash the 6.0.1. No need to flash the 15MB-boot.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
I believe what he meant by that is he is going to flash the 6.0 build then the 6.0.1 kernel leaving out the 15mb boot kernel
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
I also think this is worth looking into to see about improving sdcard read write speeds. I have downloaded both sd tools and sd speed increase apps (free in market) to see what happens. Might really help if you have apps2sd active and are using swap.
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
OK! I think I am confused now. How many files are we talking about here? Am I supposed to reflash the radio 28.25 too?

Also, what is your phone said on the Verion MOD/ROM. Mine Still say SuperAosp-ST@DM-6.0.
[G1 Android Development] flyers00:
I flashed the 6.0 build and then the 6.01 update. Phone booted up and I got a application:settings (process.com.android.settings error). Account is synching now and then I will try the infamous Market. Market is working fine flashing 6.0 and 6.01 update. Only issue is the above error message, this pops up when I try to access SupSetup. Reinstalled SupSetup V20 and error message goes away. Activated Apps2SD and will start downloading apps to make sure everything is working
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
I seen that thread, thanks for the reminder. I do use the swap and the apps2SD. Read and write speed seem to be good for me. I don't see that problem from my SD card. :D
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
My version says the same. That is just the build you're running. It wont change until you flash a different rom/build. It's just the name of the build itself.

You can flash the radio if you want. Eztery recommends it so i would go with that.

The kernel is the only thing that is supposed to change when you flash a new one. It wont change until you flash a new kernel over the rom or flash a new rom with a different kernel.

The radio/spl are independent. They will not change until you flash new ones in their place. No rom, kernel or wipe will change them
[G1 Android Development] BeenAndroidized:
So, what is flashing the 6.0 and then 6.01, then? All I have was the 6.0.1 file with the kernel build.
[G1 Android Development] AndroidKills:
haha yeah i got ahead of myself and just decided to do it without a backup in recovery, so i had to freshly flash it again because i formatted the partitions while doing it.

havnt got much time since i am busy right now to see if the experience has changed.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
flashing 6.0 is the rom/build itself then flashing the 6.0.1 is flashing the new kernel over it. Reason for flashing the new kernel is that it's based off ezterry's new kernel that has been recompiled to be better on battery life and better with memory management. From my limited understanding the build is the actual os of the phone and the kernel is the part that controls the communication between the hardware and the software.
