how about replace this with the original HTC cime input...?

it's a modified version ....works with G1...

after u unzip it ...there's a .zizi8d foler...n it supposes to be on the root of sdcard

i m guessing it contains dictionary or wording stuff...without it ..the keyboard wouldnt' come out...

i tried to figure it out but i dn't know anything about coding...

thanks for the help!!!
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
Make sure you have an ext4 partition and swap set higher than 96mb, I found I couldnt get passed splash screen without swap
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
Task killers are a waste if valuable resources. Taking up ram and CPU to kill everything besides itself and trying to not get killed by the built-in task killer. Android's built in task killer should be able to do the job on its own (changng minfree values (minfree script, autokiller) changes how it works )
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
ok so was up alllll night trying to figure out a solid task management for the rom... i had 2 g1's one with auto-killer and one with the minfree hack... I tested them side by side through many different processes and came to this conclusion.. Auto-killer stays, goodbye minfree!! unless someone knows any better settings for it..

i tested the 2 devices on:

waking up from sleep

syncing google

downloading/installing an app from market

clock widget animations

speed on opening menus and widgets

and im being honest with you the auto-killer app was the fastest in all tests..

soo i present to you v3.8.1 No ATK and no Minfree.. just Auto-killer set it to ultimate and your device will be smooooth :D

fixed clock widget apk so menu is fixed and flip animation is working properly :D

placed facebook apk in data so it is uninstallable on device if you dont want it..

and customized framework apk to set default wallpaper to the cool looking htc background... lol
[G1 Android Development] Khizzer:
yeah i get this on v3.8 it doesnt complete installation with amon ra so i flashed cwm and flashed but after completion it does not boot.my swap size is 288mb and i have upgraded to ext4 also...amon ra1.7.0 says that a file is corrupt..
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
Now try testing without any minfree hacks.

So now that you came to the conclusion that autokillers minfree values are better, time to use those in the minfree script and finally get rid of autokiller?
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
Uhg this rom would suck with 128m swap at 60%.... and no autokller...

Just sayin. Leave the phone overnignt orr alone for a bit with that much swap and no autokiller and its a mess. Maybe less swap and a renice for rosie.apk would do the trick. Ive experrimented with that, 7-8 apps open and decent speed. Autokiller is smoother tho, less lag, more app launch time.
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
Oh btw im using ezt 1.5.1 kernel for froyo, only thing broken is camera, its 10000 times faster :0
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
Ldrifta I've probably said this before, but this is probably the best ROM for 32b magic phones, problem is doesn't work without SD card
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
oo ok well im not really sure how to mess with the minfree script.. plus you have to reboot the device for it to work so its a pain in the butt... you rather have that instead of the app?

EDIT: nevermind i figured it out... testing now.. with better values for minree :D we shall seeee:D
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
Which would you rather have: one inconvenrnt reboot or an app that uses precious space on /data, uses ram that we have little of, ad has to be run every boot?

I choose the script
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
well i just read a thread about minfree settings and it says they change to stock settings once you reboot the device... so do you think that would be an issue? or is the way we use it prevent that from happening..? ill use the script its fine with me.. i just dont want there to be issues

plus i still have a device with minfree only and its acting reall slow on wake up... cree freezes and stuff... i will test the new settings and if it not any better than we probly stick with the app... but if its bettr than we will use minfree...
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
Well that's why we have swap lol
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
I dont see how swap will be of any benifit in that situation....
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
You told me when RAM is low, the phone uses swap to add on...
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
ok well i just found out our method for minfree is flawed... it does dissapear after any reboot... sooo i am on a mission to solve that..
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
When we are running low on ram the system moves inactive stuff to swap to free some ram. Then when those app are needed again, it has to move them back to ram. Its slow but it keeps apps from geting killed.

I don't like swap. I use it on desktops with fast hard drives but not on anything else.
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
I tried to run this ROM without any swap and it wouldn't let me setup after flashing, that's probably the only reason I have swap
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
k here's watsup with the new update... came to the conlusion that the minfree hack wasn't working correctly while integrated to the rom, so made flashable zip. Also you do not lose the customized minfree after rebooting so that is good :D

keep auto-killer on for 2 reasons...

1. so the rom isn't slow on the first boot.

2. minfree is set to the same kill level as auto-killer ultimate setting

plus you can uninstall it after flashing minfree if you want the extra space...
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
So minfree works in this version? And its better than any of the task killers?
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
well minfree will work any all versions now because its a flashable zip.. and i wouldn't say 'better' but i set it to be equal with what auto-killer does because it had the best settings... so basically if you dont want auto-killer just uninstall it when you first flash the rom, reboot to recovery nd flash minfree and you should be all set
[G1 Android Development] Khizzer:
this doesnt have a bootscreen...just a black screen appears while booting up...
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
huh? it has a boot screen.... same as always..
[G1 Android Development] Khizzer:
its there in sdext but does not appear while booting...im using mtd version of v3.9 and the battery life is very bad from 100-70 in just 20 mins...
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
hmmm maybe that only for mtd version... i haven't used that in a while... non-mtd is much better i think... i will test that out quick..
[G1 Android Development] Khizzer:
i never use the non mtd version..bcoz i think it would be slower than this..i reinstalled it again but the bootscreen is still not there..so should i try the non-mtd version..
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
Mtd version of 3.8 doesn't drain batteries, maybe you shouldn't have switched

Edit: what kernel should be used with this?
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
what do you mean what kernel?
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
Can't you flash different kernels?
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
uhhh i suppose if you wanted to, im not sure what other ones to use... the one with the rom works fine..
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
If you can find some to use... the only 2708+ kernel for eclair I know of is ezterrys old builds kernel. Which is what's in the rom I think
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
besides that is the kernel xillius made.. but messes up auto-kernel when i use it... need a diff wlan.ko to use it so wifi wont work on Ebi0 devices

so it basically makes the rom 2708 only..
[G1 Android Development] Khizzer:
check this out this sense rom has working bluetooth..

[G1 Android Development] darius99:
Thanks alot for the continuing development youre doing on this ROM. its running "OK" on my MT3G [MTD version].

Radio : 2.22.27.08

Hboot : 1.33.001d

swap : 256 mb

ext 3: 512mb

Could be faster though (SuperHero is super fast on my device). But definitely stable enough for daily use.

UPDATE:

Flashed Minfree.zip and uninstalled auto killer.running really smooth.thx agen =D
[G1 Android Development] zepoind:
After installing the rom I cannot install any app from market.

It says "Insufficient storage available".

However I see that there are 30mb available.

I followed the non-MTD installation (96mb swap and 512mb ext4).

Have i done something wrong (probably)??
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
i think you need to wipe your ext partition... or your system data... so go to recovery and wipe everything!!! than re-flash rom and select 'no' on mtd question... should work fine... unless you flashed any type of mtd partition files in the past.. than you must flash mtd removal first...
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
What are the pros and cons of having MTD and non-MTD?
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
Using custom mtd makes the entire rom fit on internal memory, possibly a little faster. But leaves less space on /data and no space on /cache. And requires extra steps to install and remove.

No-mtd requires an sd card with an ext partition. But frees up space on data and is easier to install and doesn't require anything but a wipe to remove. But it might be a little slower if you have a slow sdcard
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
Would a class 6 16gb card be good?
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
Should be. I got a class 4 4gb and it runs fine for me
[G1 Android Development] tearsphere:
Installed 3.9 non-MTD and loved the way it look. I would have kept it and would love to keep it, if it handled messaging better. When I received text messages I don't see them on my message app..

Also, wondering other peoples opinions and options
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
I think that's a problem with this ROM, a bunch of my friends are asking me if I got their texts, they show me they sent it but I sometimes don't get it, it might be the ROM or service...

@tvall no swap?
[G1 Android Development] tearsphere:
I hope they fix the messages. I loved this Rom. I like how the sense looks. If anyone can help me with this, that would be great.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
sorry guys ill take a look at the messaging app but will be hard for me to test since i have no plan lol so maybe one of you guys can test it for me after try a fix or 2..
[G1 Android Development] zepoind:
Problem solved!! I had wiped everything except sd-ext.

Thanks for this great rom!!
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
I will gladly help out!
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
i posted the first test rom if you want to check it out
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
I thought it would have been a fox to SMS, I think there's a problem with that, not mms
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
The mms app handles sms. Maybe that's what he's referring to
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
yeah well i tried replacng the mms.apk but couldn't get it to show up so instead i just tried moving it's location.. im not really sure what else to trybecause i have no working data plan.. i cant send or recieve messages so i have no idea if its working or not...
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
and yes that is what i was refering to is the mms.apk thanks for clearing that up :D but like i said i can't test whats not working with no data plan.. so i am sorry.. i will try another fix for it tonight...
[G1 Android Development] tearsphere:
Thinking about flashing it again tomorrow. Just wondering if the mms.zip fixed the messages or if anyone tried to flash ez1.5.1 froyo kernal on this. Besides the messages problems, this rom is perfect.

Anyone have an update?
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
sorry i've been a lil busy around the house but im trying to do what i can with the mms/sms problem..
[G1 Android Development] coen22:
I've got a htc magic 32b vodafone branded, and I've got the MTD version but it's slow. How can I make it faster?

Help!!
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
How much swap did you set, and are you using minfree
[G1 Android Development] coen22:
128mb sdswap and no minfree

UPDATE: installed minfree, rebooting...

UPDATE: it's a lot faster!!!
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
either minfree or set up the auto-killer app to ultimate.. either way it should be fast!!
[G1 Android Development] ricky chan:
Bluetooth

Bluetooth never work in a Sense Rom?

If the answer is No, what a pitty, because it's one of the best Roms that I've ever proved.

Thanks. :o
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
Most sense roms were built for different devices. This one is originally from the drought Eris if i remember correctly. Because of that there tends to be broken stuff. The two things we haven't yet fixed (and might not due to the age of our devices and lack of interset) are Bluetooth and camcorder
[G1 Android Development] askrulous:
Very nice rom! thanks!!

I've installed exactly as per instructions without the MTD and set the autokiller to ultimate and its running very quick. One question if I may, I have 1.97MB free of my phones 94.3 MB system, is this right?
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
nooo thats not right... with mtd version you get about 50mb and non mtd you get about 80mb.. so it might be your ext partition... just wipe system data, ext and re-flash rom.. should be fine :D
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
That's sounds about right. Unless your talking about /data
[G1 Android Development] askrulous:
Thanks for getting back so quick - I'll do as advised, cheers
[G1 Android Development] askrulous:
To be exact, its the system rom I meant, as it happens the partitions are all virtually empty

Is it ok then? :)

Why do I get the feeling I asked a stupid question...
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
lol no it wasn't a stupid question.. lol o god that really made me laugh :D as long as you have about 80mb available in data than it should be right haha
[G1 Android Development] askrulous:
Great, that's a relief! Thanks for putting together such an excellent rom!

now where's that data so I can check it....
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
settings/sd card & phone storage
[G1 Android Development] askrulous:
ok, thanks....it says total space 3.12gb, available 2.07gb, internal phone 252mb, hope that's ok. Also, autokiller(on ultimate) says its running at about 33mb free memory

by the way, is there any other setting I could tweak just to ensure widgets don't cause any possible issues, not that the phones not running great as it is!!
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
wow i wish i had a magic lol
[G1 Android Development] askrulous:
Lol, yeah, mine are pretty old now but with this Rom running like fresh out of a HTC box! Please keep up the great work, its very much appreciated!
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
You should have at least 40+ free memory lol, it was like that on my magic
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
i think with he 'magic' you can use mtd version without actually flashing the lx recovery...

the yes/no option on the rom install basically decides where to put the apps.. either in system for mtd version, or on the sd-ext for non mtd version.. so if your device has a system of larger than 90mb just select yes on mtd but dont flash the recovery file.. (i think....) lol
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
The magic has 90mb /system. Remember danger spl on the dream? That was jet a way to upgrade to the magic's partition layout.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
oo ok, so how the hell does this guy have like 2g available?
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
You told him to go into te menu that lists sdcard and /data free space......
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
sooo he has 2g data...?
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
No. He has a 4gb sdcard. With a 3.12gb fat partition. With a little over 2gb free. Unless you use custom mtd, he has 295mb total on /data
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
oooo haha ok so he was reading sd memory..
[G1 Android Development] tearsphere:
I am using this Rom, and it is probably the best sense rom out. Just curious if there is something to be done about its slow response / loading time
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
-Overclock over 528

-Change Swap size[not to big tho]

-Faster SD card[Better EXT perf]

-remove some apps from system folder
[G1 Android Development] Litesorrows:
This ROM Kicks some major Butt. I used the non MTD Version and followed the install just like it was posted. Its perfect now:3 Fastest Sense ever. With the MTD it lags alot, but isnt that supossed to make it go faster?
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
What apps could you remove
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
System apps

-Peep

-Facebook

-Sense widgets

-Stocks
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
not that i know of... try what ace said... do you mean loading time as in 'booting'?
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
OK update 4.0 is out

Changes:

Added OIFileManager, Terminal

Removed MTD (No longer need to answer questions or flash LX-Recovery)

Enjoy!!!
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
How do you remove peep
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
looking better every release, thanks!!

peep can be removed with an app like Root Explorer or even Titanium Backup.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
easiest way would be to open the rom zip file and take out the app completely so there no trace of it at all on the device lol than zip, sign and flash :D but thats just me... probly easier that way for me because im inside these roms all the time... have extra copies on my desktop ready for the next best release lol
[G1 Android Development] darius99:
Just telling of an issue I've encountered, dunno if its been said before, but text messages arent coming in. I flashed senselx 4.0 today approx. 3pm and now its 7 30 and I havent gotten any of the texts people have said they've sent, around 3. I know it might be a memory issue and stuff. Just notifying u to see if it can be helped in future updates.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
damm still? ok ill have to get this fixed.. thanks for telling me :D

Hey i just did some research and found out it may be the minfree settings i put in the zip, try flashing the rom and dont flash minfree... than see if you get messages? than ill know if i have to adjust the minfree, thanks if you can do this for me.. i have no data plan anymore
[G1 Android Development] darius99:
yeah I'll def try flashing again w/o minfree and update this as soon as possible.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
cool thanks man
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
Just wondering, I won't "drop" text messages with this ROM right? I feel like I do, and there's no way to check cause Ghostly is only for GB
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
well i kinda need someone to test the rom without minfree... may have to lower the values to stop sms issue
[G1 Android Development] darius99:
I'm here;am still willing Idrifta. its just I wont be able to do any texting/testing without minfree until prob this weekend cuz I currently have no text credit(i rarely buy them,use data for everything anyway:o ). if anyone can test it before then that'd would be gr8 too :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
Yo Drifta, I had a huge problem with this ROM, everytime I reboot it, it loads my screen for like 10 minutes...

EDIT: got it working <3 love this ROM forever and forever
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
lol sorry for the issue... let me know if you still have the problem and i will look at it :D

---------- Post added at 05:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:08 PM ----------

well for now thats the only testing i need done lol the only thing i can think of is minfree values are too high.. maybe to to set messages to ignore for a task killer or something..?
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
Yo idk how I fixed it, I just added more swap, I think you should make it a requisite to have

96mb swap for 32b magics
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
o.. i have the reccomended device settings with swap, but tvall said he didn't use swap so i thought maybe its not required.. guess it is lol
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
Tvall has a different version magic I thought lol, guess not
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
possibly.... im not to familiar with the magic... but i wish i had 1 lol
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
Yeah, tvall has a magic with the ram of a 32a. 288mb :)
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
lol wanna sell it?
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
Maybe. How much would you pay?

I have a bricked one that I'm too lazy to get JTAG'ed. I'll sell it for pretty cheap
[G1 Android Development] SiL3nTKiLL:
this is a SICK rom!
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
lol naaa man i was kidding, as funny as it sounds i couldn't even afford to buy a bricked phone right now unless it was 10$ lol thanks anyway :D
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
Lol. I'm trying to sell it in the marketplacefor $15
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
haha thats a steal!!!! good luck man :D
[G1 Android Development] tearsphere:
Love this sense. My market isn't automatically updating. Anyone have the download link for it
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
sometimes it takes a while.. just download an app or something.. lol

you wont get the newest market since thats for 2.2+

but you will get the latest green market, i forget what version it is
[G1 Android Development] Rushness:
Man, you really have to fix the sms issue... Thats something very important :/
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
What problem are you having, I don't have an sms problem...
[G1 Android Development] Rushness:
Ohh no theres no bug. Sorry xD

But someone had this problem in this thread.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
the issue has been resolved, its the minfree, values are set too high... need to find a new value... will update today, just been trying to get this legend port to boot, i got logcat to show up on booting but still cant get rom to boot

thanks for the reminder tho lol i haven't done much wrk on this bcause i am confident in getting this 2.2 rom to boot lol
[G1 Android Development] darius99:
Flashed the 4.1 update and Tested out the minfree1 settings tonight...started off ok, I was getting texts.but then shortly after I started missing some of them again. Its 12 am right now so I'll try the 2nd minfree settings hopefully as soon as tomorrow and let u know how it goes.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
ok awsome!! thank you very much for testing, as soon as we can figure out the mms issue than this rom will be pretty damn stable lol and the world shall prepare for my 2.2 sense release :D i got it to boot up and everything, just need to resize some things to get it all to fit on the system... hopefully can find a way to not need mtd partitions... :D
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
If only you can use GhostlySMS with this...I experienced a bug in 4.0 version, I get undelivered messages, but my friends get them somehow, when I restart my phone the undelivered text message gets sent again...
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
hmm... lol ok well i had a messege from ValiJoe, he tested the minfree2 for me and said that he wasn't having any issues yet, so i would suggest sticking with minfree2 or just using auto-killer, which in my opinion is a little slower..

sorry for the delay in work and the sms issues guys... just been buy with the 2.2 port... but im still here to help lol ill keep updating this rom :D

thank you everyone who's been patient enough for the bugs to be worked out :D
[G1 Android Development] VJmac15:
My gf loves this ROM, faster than the 2.3.5 roms, i set her up on the minifree1 and she hasnt complained about anything.

She's been using this for a couple days now, no issues at all.
[G1 Android Development] dani132:
hm going to try this one
[G1 Android Development] danthepan124:
I'm still on v4.0 and this ROM still kicks ass, I'm not using minfree but I'm using A.T.K., haven't dropped a single text message

Thanks Ldrifta <3
