[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
No, there is no harm, but it's the "normal" Amon RA recovery :)

When you have flashed that recovery custom mtd is automatically removed. Flashing other ROMs, there is no problem in having custom mtd installed, in contrary, you should have it installed, when you want to have a different partition layout ;)
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
ok but will i need fr-boot for flashing other roms? lol i kinda understand it but i just want to fully understand :D if i just flash fr-remove and do superwipe would it be the same? lol
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
fr-recovery-xxx and fr-remove-xxx affect the recovery, i.e. install / remove custom mtd configuration for the linux kernel of the recovery.

fr-boot-xxx affects only the boot.img of the ROM currently installed. Due to this you have to reinstall the fr-boot-xxx every time you install a new ROM / kernel.

There are some ROMs (e.g. all ezGingerbread-based ROMs) which have autoMTD included. With those ROMs, there is no need to flash fr-boot-xxx, but it doesn't harm if you do so.

More detailed information you can find on Firerat's cutomMTD thread. A link to it you can find in my signature ... ;)
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
i understand the custom mtd part.. im just confused as to what the difference is by flashing the recovery in step 2... you say it is the same as RA-Dream 1.7.0?? do you mean it is exactly the same or is it modified for mtd? all i really need to know is, is the file in step 2 something i would have to remove later on in order to continue testing and flashing other roms?

because if it is exactly the same as the RA-Dream recovery i have now, than why would i need to flash this file?

is it a modified FR-Recovery file? like the one used for my senselx rom?
[G1 Android Development] creezalird:
Flash the MTD Dream Recovery (only if you still have not flashed it) :P
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
lol ok i jus did it anyway :D i been dyyyying to try this rom :D
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
It's the standard Amon RA recovery ... as far as I know, there is no "mtd recovery". What should be special for mtd wth this recovery? The kernel parameter can be applied only when you know what partition layout you would like to have and that is defined by the mtdpartmap.txt and this is applied when flashing the fr-recovery-xxx file.

So in short:

Step 2: is flashing the recovery

Step 5: is applying custom mtd to the recovery kernel

Step 9: is applying custom mtd to the ROM's kernel
[G1 Android Development] creezalird:
oh, thought u already tried it..lols..happy trying..
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
haha ok so basically i forgot to mention i had the cyan version of amonra 1.7.0 so it was blue lettering.. when i flashed recovery file from step 2 it gave me the yellowish/green lettering so i think it was just a normal recovery image lol

so now i have the rom flashed.. all i need to to to flash my senselx rom is do wipe, fr-remove, superwipe and reboot... than im good to go?
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
ohhh my god i love this rom haha wow!! amazing!!! cannot wait till this has a official release :D I wish there was something i could do to help this rom but i have a feeling it is wayyy out of my league lol

Unbelievable work guys this is amazing!! Keep up the Great work!!!
[G1 Android Development] creezalird:
fr-remove is not a must if u want to retain using the already patched fr-recovery(with your provided mtd size). So far i think u just need to re-patch the mtd with smaller size..thats all...and of course all the superwipe.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
yeah the senselx has diff partition size for mtd so can i just reflash fr-recovery with size for rom or should i do remove than flash fr-recovery with custom partition size?
[G1 Android Development] creezalird:
if u are using the same version of fr-recovery (not intending to change), no need to use the fr-remove. Just change the mtd size and patch the fr-recovery afterthat.

if u want to change version, then it is advised to fr-remove(with the version installed), then after fr-recovery(another version).

Hope that helped. :D
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
ok thank you :D
[G1 Android Development] Hintay:
Could you provide your ROM with no compress and deodex？

I want add Chinese in this ROM!!

Thanks.

Small Update...

If anyone is looking for a slightly more updated version

I'm doing a little bit of work @ infinimod.com/ideas

I update it pretty often because I don't have a job (this is my job )

It's also updated more frequently because I have FiOS (fast internet),

direct access to the server, and upload it very fast (easily under 5 mins).
[G1 Android Development] ajbk4life1:
Downloading now. Thanks for the update. looking forward to your future progress. hopefully you can get camera working.
[G1 Android Development] Infinimint:
No problem. Hopefully.
[G1 Android Development] Namit1994:
Did you take a look at the link I posted in one if my previous posts?
[G1 Android Development] Infinimint:
Lemme check :D
[G1 Android Development] Infinimint:
Hmmm... I'll go ahead and try some stuff. It mostly has to do with the kernel (the page you posted) which is kinda xillius200's thing, but I'll give it a go and see what I can do. :)
[G1 Android Development] Infinimint:
Just put out a small update @ infinimod.com/ideas

Nothing big.

EDIT: Oops, accidentally posted a corrupt rom.zip (If you check the md5sum's you would know.) Already fixed it, no big deal.

EDIT2: Another update soon.
[G1 Android Development] creezalird:
did u still using the base from test12 which is i think based from sfm1.1, maybe u can try using base from sfm1.2 which probably a bit better :P just my 2 cents
[G1 Android Development] Infinimint:
I'll ask the guys real quick if it's based on it, if so I'll give it a try... if not and it's better, I'll kang everything I can :D

Btw, could you give me the link to the thread with sfm pretty plz :P

EDIT: Nevermind found it: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1025330
[G1 Android Development] creezalird:
haha...i've been busy doing groceries shopping..lols

yeah, kang everything u can...lols..can't wait to test new release from gb sense :D
[G1 Android Development] Infinimint:
Can anyone tell me what makes bluetooth "broken"... I simply don't use it and wouldn't know.

For me it turns on, is discoverable, scans well, and pairs flawlessly.

What makes it broken?

EDIT: Just pushed out an update.
[G1 Android Development] Namit1994:
I think you fixed it. For me, I try to turn it on but it turns back off.

EDIT: are using basing it from SFM 1.2?
[G1 Android Development] Infinimint:
Its not based on it yet... did you try the new update I just put out... what device do you have? It works perfect for me on my Magic 32B, 2708+, 1.33.0013d.
[G1 Android Development] Khizzer:
is the bluetooth fixed??

for the g1??

and the memory issue??
[G1 Android Development] 754boy:
I'm having problems downloading the rom. I've tried 7 times and the download always cuts out between 20 and 30mb downloaded :(
[G1 Android Development] Khizzer:
are you using chrome for downloading??

if yes then try another browser or any download manager
[G1 Android Development] roughkoala:
will u get camera to work??
[G1 Android Development] roughkoala:
why actually is this project paused?? really great rom, exept no bt and camera :(( plss fix this guys... then it will be my Standard ROM!!

thx...
[G1 Android Development] Khizzer:
the developer for this sold his device...:(

so i dont think there will be further development..:o

i cant tell if someone takes this on...;)
[G1 Android Development] 754boy:
I tried 2 download managers, firefox, IE, and chrome. Still cuts out.
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
you know, there are more developers than me who were doing this ;) check out infinimod projects it's listed under there ;) along with updates :D
[G1 Android Development] Namit1994:
But they are not experienced with kernel work, one of them posted before. You're still needed.
[G1 Android Development] 754boy:
I tried out the new update but it is sooooooooooooooooo sluggish. It installed fine but I can't do anything because its so slow. I wiped and superwiped before following ur instructions.
[G1 Android Development] :
There really isn't enough ram.. All I basically did was port from sFM's 32A base, and add some memory hacks, but that didn't work out all that great..

I can release a slimmed down version, with less htc widgets (no ETA.. or promises.. yet) if I still have enough time after my 10 hour workday..
[G1 Android Development] Khizzer:
so did you test the bluetooth??
[G1 Android Development] 754boy:
Tested it today. Bluetooth, wifi, and GPS all work. Camera doesn't though. Keep in mind I didn't make a call using bluetooth though. I mainly use my 32B now as a portable media player and only tested my Motorola bluetooth headphones. It streamed music to them just fine and controls worked fine too. It also paired and connected to a Platronics Voyager Pro headset too.
[G1 Android Development] Infinimint:
A new update may be out soon. I'll post here when it is.
[G1 Android Development] 754boy:
Cool, and thanks. I'll be sure to keep an eye on this thread :D
[G1 Android Development] chaochao_0627:
I cannot download the romfrom ur website using ie9.why

?
[G1 Android Development] 754boy:
I had the same problem. I wound up having to get a friend with a 20Mbps connection to download it for me and upload it to megaupload.
[G1 Android Development] Infinimint:
Try to right click on the file and click "save target as".
[G1 Android Development] chaochao_0627:
Could you offer me the link of metaupload
[G1 Android Development] Namit1994:
I got the new SFM1.2 to boot on 32B but I keep running out of memory so everything force closes.
[G1 Android Development] Rushness:
Something new with Bluetooth and or Camera?
[G1 Android Development] Infinimint:
Anyone wandering about the update, please be patient. It will come with time.
[G1 Android Development] Namit1994:
I have a version of SFM 1.2 running on 32B. If you want, I will upload it for you to mess with.
[G1 Android Development] 754boy:

[G1 Android Development] Infinimint:
Sure, it would help. I've just been really busy lately with switching everything over to a new harddrive, going out of town, worrking on many new projects, and doing different jobs that I haven't been able to focus a lot of time on GingerSense. This would be very helpful and I would appreciate it :D
[G1 Android Development] Namit1994:
I will upload but it is just as slow lol. Can barely get past the setup screen. The size of the ROM is a lot smaller though so I thought it could be a good base.
[G1 Android Development] Infinimint:
Just updated the ROM @ infinimod.com/ideas

The only change is AutoKernel integration for easier flashing.

I'm working on a bigger update, so stay tuned.
[G1 Android Development] doki_93:

There's a new gingerbread sense port in the magic section now. Some comments say its faster than the sfm port. Maybe we shoud make a new version based on that?

(I would try it myself but I still don't have a computer)
[G1 Android Development] roughkoala:
plzzz Update!!
[G1 Android Development] :
yes, sir :D

THings to see in next update:

-no custom MTD needed because apps moved to data partition and symlinked to system (trick I learned from HD2 devs) :)

-sFM 1.2 base

-idk what else, will see as I test
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
Can't wait to try this :)

How much ram will we have for apps?

Thanks dude..
[G1 Android Development] Khizzer:
does this update fix camera and bluetooth???..and memory problems?
[G1 Android Development] Rushness:
C'mon update it :)
[G1 Android Development] SuperStar1080:
Bluetooth and camcorder don't usually work on Sense ROMS for our phones (at least that I know of) so I doubt it... I would rather them fix the speed than the small things like camcorder and bluetooth
[G1 Android Development] Khizzer:
bluetooth is already fixed it is not yet verified on the g1...
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
Then test it and verify it
[G1 Android Development] Khizzer:
sure but when i get some free time..:)
[G1 Android Development] Infinimint:
Lol if I could get my G1 up and running I'd test it.

Sadly my G1 is retired with a non responsive LCD, cracked digitizer, chipped,cracked, and broken frame with no paint, the mainboard is broken and wont read sdcards, and the LCD cable is hanging out of the phone so it wont shut.

For the time it takes to flash a ROM it's not really worth it. :/ I'll just need to buy a new one I suppose. Luckily I have a Magic, so there is no reason to. xD

@e334

Can't wait for the new update!
[G1 Android Development] mikeyman77:
Can't you just dust it off and you are good? lol
[G1 Android Development] Namit1994:
Your G1 is retired? What about crippled? Lol!
[G1 Android Development] Infinimint:
:P you guys are silly. I'll have to post pics/vid soon so you can get a good laugh.
[G1 Android Development] Rushness:
I think without an improve on the speed thing this ROM isn't very usable...

I installed it again last night and it just laggs like hell.

Next problem is the internal storage which is with 8mb even not enough to just launch the "Gallery" app.. :s
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
How long before we get the next rom to test?

thks for your hard work dude..
[G1 Android Development] Infinimint:
No ETA bro, sorry.
[G1 Android Development] Rushness:
Where's the update? :o
[G1 Android Development] :
Working on it..
[G1 Android Development] Namit1994:
What will the update have, faster speed or something else?
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
please tell me development is still going on with this rom??? has soooo much more potential!!!! if anything i can do to help i would gladly do it, or learn it...

i have 1 question... how did you port the sense ui into the rom?

i need to learn more about developing :D
[G1 Android Development] Rushness:
Maybe just resized the pictures? :o
[G1 Android Development] GuyInDogSuit:
Did I see Sense 3.0 in some of those screenshots?
[G1 Android Development] AKASHIK:
Is what I saw bellow your next update work based on ?

http://htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads

Sorry, I should have post this message in the HD2 section.
[G1 Android Development] :
You have to port from a ruu.. The last (or first) update I uploaded was based on 32A SFM, and I don't feel I did much work to make it good because porting from 32A to 32B devices is too easy (except for the lagginess).

For now, try other people's roms until I find some time to update :)
[G1 Android Development] darius99:
A lil help plz, I have a Magic 32B and when i flash this rom and it bootsup , after I put in my PIN, its just an endless white HTC loading screen... :confused:

UPDATE: NEVER MIND. loaded after a LONG time.
[G1 Android Development] Rushness:
What did you expect? xD

2.3.3 GB Sense 2.1 running like on the Magic 32A? xD
[G1 Android Development] Bytecode:
Hi all,I need some infos. Was this ROM Ported from the Desire Z? If so,how did you make armv7 libs work on armv6? Thank you :)
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
Can't remember exactly what it's called, but it was ported from an armv6 device. I think it was the wildfire s or some variant of it.
[G1 Android Development] Rushness:
Yes, it was ported from the Wildfire S. But also from the HTC Salsa.
[G1 Android Development] Rushness:
OFC i ment you :b Much thanks that you liked my pictures :3

E: xillius could you gimme your msn or skype or whatever addi via pn? :D
[G1 Android Development] XZ32:
tried booting it but always get thrown back to recovery... must have done smth wrong lol :x

Ill try again when my battery is recharged ;P
[G1 Android Development] Rushness:
You missed one of the steps, cause normally its working...
[G1 Android Development] Khizzer:
ok so when is the next version coming??

:):)
[G1 Android Development] Rushness:
Next version will have modifications by xillius200 and will hopefully be released this weekend or the week after the weekend :)

BTW: @e334: Put "Optional" behind register for htc sense... So people dont understand it wrong..
[G1 Android Development] Khizzer:
you r right for the htc sense thing

but its okay!

btw checkout the pics lol...:)
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
definatly max by the end of this weekend lol

[G1 Android Development] jumpman707:
can you just super wipe and flash another ROM or do you have to remove the mtd before you flash new.:confused:

love ROM :cool: . cant wait to see what you guys can do with it
[G1 Android Development] :
You have to remove the MTD only if you had custom MTD 1.5.6 previously installed. After you remove the old custom mtd by firerat, you flash the newer (1.5.9) custom MTD recovery patcher, wipe data/system/cache, reboot, and then flash rom/kernel, and lastly: boot patcher.
[G1 Android Development] jumpman707:
thanks for fast reply but what i meant was that i followed instructions in OP and now decided that the ROM was kinda slow for my taste and now im trying to go to another ROM. so can i just super wipe or remove mtd before flashing a ginger ROM

also flashed fr remove v1.5.6 custom mtd does that remove the mtd:confused:
[G1 Android Development] creezalird:
if u already followed all instructions properly and now want to change to another rom, u should flash remove 1.5.9 custommtd if only that not needed in ur next rom.

but if u only want to change the size of mtd..just change the value in the text file to your next rom size requirement, and the reflash the recovery again (1.5.9 of coz) and wipe cleanly, then you are good to go to flash another rom

edit : u can find more FAQ regarding custommtd here
[G1 Android Development] g1user101:
reallly wanna try this. but i need camera and video. can you guys fix it??
[G1 Android Development] Namit1994:
the 710 mhz kernel caught my eye. How stable do you think you get can that to be? Is it stable on the HTC Magic?
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
At one point I tried running a 710MHz kernel. It ran really fast and smooth, for the 5 seconds before it rebooted lol
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
well heres a kernel you can try lol ezterry 2.6.35 kernel with ability of 714mhz usually ez disables so just compiled with setting on xD needs testing so here you go ^^

--- in attachment below you can update modules.sqf aswell but you shouldnt need to lol

PS: Tested working by e334 xD
[G1 Android Development] :
Here is a flashable zip version of the kernel. By default, userinit.sh sets the speeds to 710-480, but since the previous kernel only allows up to 614, the max speed you can find is setcpu is only 614 mhz.

When you flash this kernel, your phone will run at 710 mhz speeds without the need for setcpu :D

Just flash and hope that you won't start a thermnuclear war :D: http://www.multiupload.com/5VZSIKDPJI

Depending on your luck, your phone may or may not reboot while running at 710 mhz..
[G1 Android Development] jumpman707:
do you know were i could get the remove 1.5.9 custom mtd file
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
http://www.mediafire.com/?lifib6a9ptj5j#28apfxi22dnd2,1
[G1 Android Development] edward0119:
if i don't flash the mtdcustom,it will not work?
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
yep bassically lol the system on this rom is too big so we need mtd ^^
[G1 Android Development] edward0119:
noticed.

maybe i will flash your next rom.

btw,what is nathan's new msn?
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
Btw can't test this as am doing something else with the next test xD be grateful if someone could test lol same as what e334 posted xD but if i've done right will allow you to choose settings for userinit.sh just place userinit.sh on your sdcard and set new cpu settings in the userinit.sh and should reboot with them xD much better than using setcpu with setcpu.txt and taking up more ram ^^ also good as you can reflash the zip with new settings if one dont work lol attached below ^^
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
not sure xD
[G1 Android Development] :
It is e334_@hotmail.com
[G1 Android Development] Namit1994:
Probably not for me, I get reboots even at 614 MHz.
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
0o really :/ weird xD
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
The highest I can go is 595... i wonder if I can change that by making an overvolted kernel... but then battery life would suck... trade-offs lol
[G1 Android Development] XZ32:
Nope, tried it multiple times man... always reboots and loads back up to recovery.
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
I have Death SPl as well and I had to flash ezBiffTestKernel20101031-ebi0_S.zip (which you can find on this forum) last.

It does take ages to load(see my post on page 2) but it's a great rom :)

I think I will have to do the Ram Hack now as most roms use it :(

I think the guy will update the OP to tell people that they need the Ram Hack.
[G1 Android Development] chaochao_0627:

[G1 Android Development] XZ32:

[G1 Android Development] Rushness:
You propably made a mistake, because normally it is working with this Instruction, maybe you forgot to Wipe everything...
[G1 Android Development] XZ32:
followed it to the teeth...

tried it like 8 times.

patched recovery,did all the wiping, MTD recovery, wiping, rom, kernel,MTD boot

every time it did all and reboot, it stays on G1 screen for a minute, then reboots and goes back to recovery...
[G1 Android Development] chaochao_0627:
help me why i cannot open http://www.multiupload.com ,i cannot download the rom
[G1 Android Development] chaochao_0627:
can you open this website?could u upload it to 115? thanks
[G1 Android Development] chaochao_0627:
ge.tt does work for me
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
weird can you specify what you have out of this lol

mtd 1.5.9?? if not specify what version

which kernel you are using??

have you re-downloaded the zip??

can you then specify everything else about your phone lol

plus...does your phone not boot at 614mhz?

PS: I suggest you try another kernel that the once specified on the op xD
[G1 Android Development] XZ32:
yeah i downloaded/re-downloaded everything from the OP.

mtd 159, kernel from OP + tried some others, same result.

G1, AmonRa patched, 8GB class 4 SD, 2708 2.22.28.25, ...

its weird cos usually when u do smth wrong it would stay at the G1 screen, but it reboots and goes to recovery... never had that before.
[G1 Android Development] xillius200:
had it twice before where it went shown the vodafone screen then went back to recovery xD still not sure what the problem was ummm....you may just have to wait and try the later versions we post :/ soz XZ32 because it don't even load damn kernel we cant get anything from it to help with xD
[G1 Android Development] XZ32:
yeah ill just w8 :)
[G1 Android Development] flyers00:
Nice job so far on the ROM. Everything flashes and boots fine on my G1. The overall speed is lagging and I understand it is beta. Look forward to see how this progresses.

[G1 Android Development] :
I can use the apk's from the asia version of sFM 1.1 but the apk's may not be optimized.. I have to ask xillius200 if he would be willing to do the extra work..
