Where are you located? Big city? Small town? Do you have a strong signal all the time? It'll use way more battery if the signal is weak.

I got it when I am home. Poor H+ signal and 3G signal, so it always switch between H+/3G/E and it result in bigger battery drain. I go in the center and keep mobile data open and no problem.

Hello,

I have installed the nightly CM for p725.

Now I have loud call echo and the caller side. The caller also hears button clicks or any noise my phone makes.

I have read a bit about the problem and it looks like the nightly cm doesn't support the second, internal mic this phone uses to disable echo.

I've heard the original phone.apk might solve the problem. Thing is, I don't have it - can someone please upload the original phone.apk?

If anyone has any idea how to solve it I will appreciate it.

For some reason I can't recover to the original lg rom. for now I'm stuck with the nightly cm.

Ideas?

Hello. I want to ask is it possible to run ubuntu on SGTab2? I mean pure desktop ubuntu, not mobile one, nor as virtual machine. All instructions I found deals with Nexus 7.

I wanted to flash cm5 for a variety of reasons (moving from cm4, so I have some experience on the matter)

The thing is< I don't want to flash a custom spl, don't want to brick my phone, it's my only one, but have found the firerat partition method and was wondering how to proceed with the matter.

I know how to recover from a soft brick, and have nandroid backups made with cm recovery 1.4.

Anyone have any expertise on the subject?:confused:

Make a nandroid, wipe clean, flash new ROM and gapps

What's your current radio/bootloader?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamwave:
I have no idea what my radio version is, but I have a stock bootloader, and I'm currently unwilling to flash that because the risks are so high, but I've tried just flashing the update, and it soft bricked my phone; the really bad thing it did was partition /system in a way that nandriod didn't work, and I had to flash rc29 and repeat the procedure to even get cm4 working:eek:. My signature probably has most of the info that you'll need to see what hardware/software configuration I have;). Thanks for being an such an active help demkantor!:D

edit: no signature with that info anymore, and it had already changed, so to rephrase: I just had stock.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Can't see SIG on app, but the risks are minimal on flashing firmware so long as you know what you're doing

I used to buy and sell g1s and have fully upgraded close to 100 of them, never damaged one

Just use fastboot when possible, check md5sums, always flash radio then bootloader, just be sure you follow proper steps and all is safe

If you want any newer ROMs you will be forced to update and it literally takes less then ten minuets to go from pure stock to fully updated phone running gingerbread or whatever. And most of the froyo and gingerbread ROMs run better than older ones especially with the ram hack
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamwave:
I have heard a lot about fastboot, what is it and how do I enter it?:confused:
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Its mode within bootloader that allows for communication between phone and PC, kinda like adb

Also write down all info on bootloader screen and let me know current recovery and ROM youre on
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamwave:
I want reliable help with both.

The information that I could gather from the bootloader is:

DREA100 PVT 32B

CPLD-4

RADIO-2.22.19.26I (P.S. the last character is an "eye", not a one or an L)

SEP 2 2008

_____________________

I flashed update-cm-4.2.15.1-signed.zip to get my current ROM, even though I have some custom mods, so it can't technically be considered more than based off of cyanogenmod.

I am running the cyanogen+JF recovery as my current recovery. I have heard of a partition re-sizer made by firerat, but have no indication of its reliability. if you have a fail-safe way of flashing cm5, of even cm6, then that would be great!:fingers-crossed::victory:
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
ok so here are your steps

boot to recovery and make a backup

now flash Danger SPL from recovery

now boot back to bootloader and see that you have .26i radio and .2005 SPL (not needed step but good to see this)

The preferred thing to do is flash the .13d spl with a compatible radio but we can save this until later

For now we will go through these next steps:

boot to recovery and flash THIS SUPER WIPE SCRIPT (always a good idea between flashes)

and I'm OCD when it comes to wiping clean so also wipe all in recovery

Now flash CM5 ROM

and the flash GAPPS in recovery

when all is done reboot ---- profit

also consider using THIS RECOVERY just my preferred one for the dream

Let me know if you need further help
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamwave:
The links to cm5 and gapps seem to be dead, but I'll find them elsewhere. And, are you sure that there is no possibility of a hard brick while doing this? If I killed this phone, then I would be out of luck for at least 6 months.

does superwipe wipe recovery and hboot as well?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamwave:
These forums are almost as good as live support!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Superwipe wipes and formats system/data/cache/boot not recovery or hboot

If you can't find cm5 or gapps let me know and I'll upload them

Flashing bootloaders through recovery is dangerous so always check md5sum and once you have the .2005 hboot you will be able to use fastboot for all your firmware flashing needs

Having said that I have flashed that .zip literally over 100 times with never a brick (used to sell rooted phones on eBay) but choice is yours
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamwave:
So you're saying both that it is dangerous and that you recommend doing it? P.S. Please excuse the immaturity of this, it's just that this is really exciting, as my first android is about to get a really major update.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamwave:
Will the superwipe wipe the ex2 partition on my sd? Or will I have to make a copy?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
I would do the upgrade, it is safe so long as you follow proper instructions

download all files

check md5sums

make sure you meet all requirements (ie radio matches new spl - you're good here)

place all needed files on root of sd

yes it wipes ext partition, you can always extract contents of any mod/rom/whatever

if you're not sure - look through an updater-script if its flashable (this is) and see what it does

you will see it runs SuperWipe.sh - in here you see it wipes boot/cache/data/system/sd-ext (not fat32 partition) and .adroid_secure

I use this same superwipe each time i flash a new rom to my g1, its good (always make nandroid in recovery first)

and yeah, first time you do anything new like this it's scary/exciting but knowing that thousands upon thousands have successfully done this

you'll be just fine

best of luck!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamwave:
Is it possible to do it without erasing the ext partition? Maybe just wiping with the recovery wipe data? It will mean that I will have to find my sd adapter if I have to copy the ext partition.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Maybe you misunderstand, it won't remove the partition altogether it will just remove contents which is a good idea when moving to a new ROM, the backup you made will backup contents of ext partition and can be restored at a later point if needed
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamwave:
I've seen a lot of tutorials on how to do this say that I need to flash hardspl. is this correct?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Same as danger SPL or death SPL, they all are the same but just go by another name. Go by the numbers, .2005
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamwave:
Is it necessary to do a wipe before installing the rom?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Technically when you flash the new bootloader you will wipe your system partition, that's why the backup should be made.

Go with this motto for wiping

Not always needed but always recommended
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamwave:
Flashed bootloader, flashed superwipe, flashed cm5 + gapps, and just waiting for a reboot, wish me luck!

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Haha! Great I'm glad this has all worked out for you! Cm5 was one of my favorites for the dream, along with super e , both eclair ROMs. Enjoy it for a while and when you're ready let me know and I'll help you implement the ram hack (.13d hboot) and check out some other awesome ROMs

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamwave:
Would you recommend upgrading to cm6?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Not really, I mean the official cm6 just never worked well for me, there were some froyo ROMs that were great like froyobylaszlo and dreamteams aosp froyo, even a few smooth gingerbread ROMs for the dream. Non of which would be possible without ezterry's amazing work with the .13d SPL

I would advise to stick with eclair ROMs for a week or so, then upgrade radio/SPL and try them again to see the difference. After maybe another week try some froyo and gingerbread, each time creating a nandroid backup so you can quickly go back to what works best

For now have a blast with cm5!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamwave:
I already am having a blast!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamwave:
I'm having trouble with the ext2 partition, it isn't mounting/working.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
I would recommend to use recovery to change this to an ext4 partition

But probably apps2ext isn't working right out of the box in cm5, its been a long time so I can't recall if I needed to use an app or what to enable this.

Search the cm5 thread here in xda and I'm sure you'll find out how it is done, if your stuck I'll take a look when I'm near a PC but searching is terrible on tapatalk

May be interested in changing splash screen, next to flashing ROMs I remember this being the coolest thing about android
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamwave:
I think that I'll be fine leaving the splash screen alone for a while, as that seems even deeper than simply flashing a new bootloader, and even that was really new for me. Thanks for the help with flashing though! Now if only I knew how to get apps2sd working. Do you have any links to a good gingerbread or froyo rom for the g1? That would be awesome to say the least
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
You won't want any froyo and up ROMs until you flash the .13d SPL, they will just feel too slow. So play with eclair a bit then when you want to change let me know.

I'm sure you'll find info for a2ext for cm5 if you search the thread a bit

Changing the splash is easy so long as you have the proper image, just one simple command

fastboot flash splash1 nameofsplash.img

fastboot reboot

You just need to be careful that its the proper sized image is all
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamwave:
Once I partitioned correctly, apps2sd is working perfectly with link2sd. However, my favorite launcher, ADW EX, is not working at all, any ideas? Also, after a few boots with gapps crashing, market, gmail, and several other google services are not working now.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:

OK so look over the op here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=882356

Pretty straight forward, you just need to make a nandroid and download the new radio.img and hboot.img (if links are broken I'll upload them for you)

fastboot erase system -w

fastboot erase boot

fastboot flash radio nameofradio.img

fastboot flash hboot nameofhboot.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

Now boot to recovery and flash a ROM with the proper kernel (any "new" ROM) let's say ezgingerbread for now

Then boot to os!

Now you have 14mb more ram, which may not sound like much but it will breath new life into your dream, especially when using older ROMs (which you need to flash a new kernel on top of this older ROMs to work with new SPL)

Best of luck, let me know if you need a hand

Do you know how I could get the gingerbread icons and elements on this? Do you know of a kind of theme manager for cm5?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
its not that it is hard it is that you loose fastboot capabilities which i find very important and for anyone who is new to flashing i would suggest trying a few things out before jumping straight to the .13d spl - not to mention flashing firmware is potentially dangerous if done wrong

However once you feel confident that you understand the basics and dont soft brick your phone between flashes then by all means lets get you the ram hack!

Is there any way that I could get extra ram without this particular hack? I want to keep my newly acquired fastboot capabilities.

No, not unless you're able to hack the .13d bootloader even more than ezterry did. But it is relatively easy to change back to a bootloader that has fastboot capabilities so don't let it sway your opinion too much. I keep my dream on the .13d bootloader and change if I need fastboot for any reason (changing splash screens or whatever) I just recommend to get comfortable flashing first is all

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
ok, lets just start by getting you a more updated rom, and get you the .13d spl

first download all this, check md5sums

28.25 radio

.13d spl

orange.nbh - this is just in case of emergencies

now download this rom from HERE There are 4 files under download, put all on sd

now do a backup of current rom (if you restore later you will need a different kernel - more on this later)

ok, so these .zips can* be flashed in recovery but i highly recommend to use fastboot.... much much safer (im a bit Hippocratic as usual as i flashed often from recovery)

so, directions for fastboot:

use 7zip or whatever to extract contents of radio and spl

fastboot flash radio radio.img

fastboot flash hboot hboot.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

(change names of images accordingly)

between each flash fastboot will give you an output, so long as no errors proceed (there shouldnt be if done correct)

when you finish and after you reboot bootloader you will see the changes on phone

now boot to recovery

use that superwipe i gave you before (not really needed as this essentially wiped all this data - but good practice)

now flash the four pieces from sd card

rom

gapps

gprs patch (very helpful for me)

zeam launcher (one of my favorites)

reboot - profit!

see the fastboot guide i linked earlier for a better understanding if needed, also feel free to read ezterrys instructions

let me know if you get stuck or need help updating the busybox in this rom

hope you like gingerbread!

As for the su binary let's just update your ROM, it will become real easy to navigate flashing different android versions as you do it. From talking with you you really understand most all of many the basics and more but just lack the experience. I've seen you create a theme and are diligent in asking questions when your jot 100% which all shows you are more than capable navigating the android ecosystem, and I have no doubt that you will develop at least some minor stuff over time. Just progress on with your dream and push your skills to the limit, soon you will have no worries and be able to do so much more
