Can someone explain why we are keeping the RC30 images around?

It seems like if we were to just get rid of that, and everyone were to use the images based on ADP1.1, then the world would be tons less confusing. People wouldn't have to make different versions of themes for RC30 and ADP1.1 and RC8, etc.

I have an ADP to begin with, but if you have a G1 then once you get it converted to an ADP, is there any advantage to using the RC30 image? This is just something I've been wondering for a while.
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
i'm not using anything but RC30 .. standard phone image and most compatible in my opinion for what i want .. as far as that goes why not eliminate ADP? from what i have been reading ADP lacks some of the social aspects like IM from the phone .. MyFaves doesn't work etc

Bugs-Bugs-Bugs

I like JF's work alot but there seams to be some bugs.

1. When i choose a ring tone for my alarm or just set an ring tone for my calls then it'll play 1-2 sec. and stop that never use to happen in the previos JF hacks.

2. When i call some one then some times when i bow down to pick my son's toys up while speaking on the phone it'll end calls automatic very irritating or if i have it in my hands and move around while speaking on the bluetooth it'll end calls.

I am now downgrading to previos version JFv1.31 that worked fine for me because i use my phone for work otherwise i would like to mess around whith it to give feed back about bugs so JF can improve it.

Other then the above bugs it's lovely.

Thanks JF for all ur work keep it up and we all appreciate what u r doing for free.
[G1 Android Development] LPChris:
Have you installed any themes since installing JF v1.41? A lot of the time its the theme, and not the OS.
[G1 Android Development] Zionator:
No can't find any themes for UK versions.

So am i the only one whith this problem?

If so then it must be my phone.
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
could be the phone .. hard to say .. it's not as obvious as a cracked screen or something to tell something's wrong
[G1 Android Development] Zionator:
hmm ok.

lol u in here as well. :-)
[G1 Android Development] jleake:
first of all just wanted to thank JF for all this.

Had the phone since it came out but was worried about doing all this to it. Had a few scares in the process but it all worked out.

Have a question, multitouch was working great for me earlier today, and now for some reason its not working at all. Is there a way I could have turned it off...
[G1 Android Development] JesusFreke:
Did you install a theme?
[G1 Android Development] jleake:
yeah i did, ????is that bad thing?
[G1 Android Development] JesusFreke:
If the theme hasn't been updated for JFv1.41, you will lose the multi-touch browser, and su access :). It's fixable if you want to grab the browser and superuser apk from the JFv1.41 update file and push them to /system/app. Otherwise, you can just re-flash JFv1.41.
[G1 Android Development] kron2:
can you post the theme you installed so people know not to install it ,and the maker knows to update.and if it is a theme you had on your pc it may be updated for jfv1.41 now.
[G1 Android Development] jleake:
thanks a lot man. i'm still new to this whole thing.

yeah it was the victory war theme. says its compatible but it jacked my stuff up.
[G1 Android Development] necromancerr:
is it just me or does jf 1.41 drain more battery than 1.31???

i used to run for about 36 hours when on jf 1.31... but now, in less than 12 hours my phone has less than 15% battery.
[G1 Android Development] justanothercrowd:
battery life

I switched back to 1.31 because 1.41 does eat more juice.

The only thing I could think of is the nulti-touch registering more events buts pretty

Bad compared to stock or 1.31 builds. Hope JF can find the source.
[G1 Android Development] mark925:
I didn't notice it until today, but yes it does. I'm wondering why and hope JF can track it down.
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
hmmm, didnt notice that till today too... if i go back to 1.31 do i have to do a wipe or just update.zip and im done ?
[G1 Android Development] Nayyak:
for the guys complaining about battery life

are you talking about RC30 ?

coz I have the ADP1.1 and I have no compaints @ all.
[G1 Android Development] lazzy81:
I am completely lost

Can anyone please help I am stuck, I cannot do anything after rc29, I have searched and read and read and cannot seem to figure out what I am doing wrong
[G1 Android Development] chuazy:
thanks for the firmware its great. =)

one big problem though, after the update from stock 29 to RC8(UK) 1.41, my streaming videos cannot be played properly. they will [play for about 1-2 secs and will hang, following a message that the video cannot be played. this problem exist for my youtube, vtap and TED videos, while the video playback on my sdcard are fine. May I know anyone knows the solution? I have uninstalled vtap and TED but its still the same problem for youtube videos.
[G1 Android Development] d00m:
Like I said earlier, GPS is turned on by default, make sure you turn it off. If it's already off try the other version (rc30 or adp).
[G1 Android Development] jusutus:
I'm using the ADP as well and the battery life seems to be as before.
[G1 Android Development] Master Loon:
I have updated to 1.41

My issue seems to be that the phone will shut off once off the charger after some time. I have to them plug it back in to turn it on. Once on the charger and screen is off. i will press the menue and it says battery at 80 percent.. after a few mins...90...92...99...99....back of phone is hot..

I then take it off of the charger then after a half it shuts off.

my wife was starting to think I was cheating on her till I showed her what was happening.

After i get off work I will try to figure out how to totally drain the battery and then fully charge up.

EDIT:

Issue was with the battery fitting back into the G!. For some reason it did not always turn on. pulled out the metal contacts. Seems to have done the trick

only thing i can think of.

i've problems with maps after installing apd 1.1 jf 1.41

my maps does not work anymore, "connection problems..."

within maps the multi touch does not work either but in all other programms it does
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
@JF

Why is that when i install my themes on your 1.41 build Screenshot wont work? I made the edits to the theme i needed like browser and Superuser but It says missing raw file this happened to me on one of your earlier builds.

I thought maybe you could help me out thanks. :)
[G1 Android Development] Mstoop:
I received my new adp1 yesterday and it has build number dream_devphone-userdebug 1.0 UNLOCKED 116222 test-keys on it.

Can simply upgrade this build to JFv1.41? Or should I choose another version?
[G1 Android Development] jusutus:
Yep I'm having problems with it too. Doesn't work either with GPS or 3G. :/ And no multitouch either.
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
Maps is not suppose to have multi touch only the browser has multi touch,I had ADP installed and never had a problem with maps. But when installing a new build you should always follow with a wipe. JF v1.31 wiped automatically after you rebooted but the new builds don't.

@JF

When i install a theme all my root apps work its only Screenshot giving me problems and i don't get it,do you have any idea what is causing this problem. Again i did edit the browser and the Superuser,when i run the app superuser ask's if i want to grant permission i select always and then it says that Raw file not found.
[G1 Android Development] Autarkis:
I've got problems with maps as well. A wipe seems to be a good idea. Does anyone have an idea on how good MyBackup really is? I suppose using NANDroid for that would kind of defeat the purpose of the wipe... ;)
[G1 Android Development] n1kon:
I have this exact issue as well. Just going back to jf rc8 1.41 to test that
[G1 Android Development] niente:
well, i have the developer g1 so i had no rc8 before.

how do i downgrade? tried to but the 1.31 update.zip on the sd but the 1.41 installer opened
[G1 Android Development] n1kon:
Once I have fully tested all images I'll let you know if they all have the same issue. Dont change it yet.
[G1 Android Development] kathi17:
I updated from RC29 to apd 1.1 jf 1.41.

Before I went from the stock RC30, I did a complete backup with my backup, and copied everything to a folder on my computer. Then I reformatted my SD card to Fat 32. Between RC29 and jf 1.41, I wiped. After flashing to 1.41, I copied my backup stuff back to the SD card.

All my stuff was there, and I just reinstalled the apps, so I think my backup does a good job. (I had also made sure I synced to Google so I would be sure to have all of my contacts).

Also, I have no problems with my maps and 1.41. Maybe wiping before flashing helped.
[G1 Android Development] necromancerr:
i have adp 1.1 tooo.. but it drains alot...
[G1 Android Development] kathi17:
Did you see the message about the GPS being turned on by default? I turned mine off in my power manager profile, and everything is okay now.
[G1 Android Development] JesusFreke:
Why are you asking me? The screenshot app isn't my app :)
[G1 Android Development] Zionator:
Question for JF?

Hi.

I got JFv1.31 so if i use the factory reset in settings will it just wipe out evey thing i have on the phone or will it go back to the Android OS from T-mobile

and delete JFv1.31 witch i wanna keep.

Note i wanna keep JFv1.31 but still be able to use factory reset instead of doing a clean install of 1.31?

Thanks.

Edit : Just notest posts for 1.41 so i am sorry for posting this question in here.
[G1 Android Development] Autarkis:
Just did the wipe, restored stuff via MyBackup, took some time but maps and CellFinder are working again.

Interesting: Maps worked via WiFi, just not via EDGE / 3G! I wonder where the problem is...

Now I have to get the apps on the SD card again, but that's entirely my fault... :rolleyes:

Edit: I'm an ADP1.1 guy by the way. :) And thanks for all the support I'm getting. :)
[G1 Android Development] niente:
i works again, seems like it was a google problem....like the odd searchings in the afternoon

anyway thx guys
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
I asked you because this happend with the first realeas of v1.31 and it was fixed but now I'm having this problem again.
[G1 Android Development] rizoh66:
So has there been a different fix to this maps issue without doing a wipe?
[G1 Android Development] justanothercrowd:
of course I checked GPS and other power draining features before performing the flash back to 1.31. I'm not sure what it it but I tried ADP1.1 and RC30...wiped clean on both installs so I know its not a bad install. Other people are having the issue...is anyone else noticing this type of behavior?

My battery lasts all day with 1.31 but only about half to three quarters with 1.41...???
[G1 Android Development] knight4linux:
No I have ADP and have had none of the issues mentioned above.
[G1 Android Development] bakgwailo:
ADP 1.1 here and I did notice a very substatial loss of battery time :(
[G1 Android Development] MontAlbert:
How can this be with the battery thingy on ADP1.1? Surely it has everything on it that RC30 also has- minus a couple of things on RC30 (myfavs etc). This should make it more efficient??
[G1 Android Development] :
Try reading the topic ;)
[G1 Android Development] Dsmithjr:
I'm having a little problem since upgrading to v1.41, I no longer get email notifications (either sound, flashing LED, or in the notification bar). If I open the Gmail app, the new emails are there, but I'm not receiving any notification.

Everything else is working great. Any ideas on what could be causing this?

P.S. I didn't install any themes. Just the v1.41 update.
[G1 Android Development] kemikal20:
Upgrade process seemed to work fine, but I've got a major problem with 3G it kind of feels like the 2100mhz band isn't enabled.

I'm in Australia using Hutch3 network the 3G worked fine with the original ADP I recieved. No I can only connect using GSM, there doesn't appear to be any UTMS or EDGE support. Has anyone else running 2100mhz had this problem?

JF, does this build have all frequencies that the dev phone supports available?

Cheers.

[G1 Android Development] southsko:
awesome, thanks for all your hard work
[G1 Android Development] LPChris:
I had the same issue as you. Had JF's ADP1 v1.31 installed before. Put the v1.4 on just now and was stuck in a loop. I didn't have any themes installed or anything.

I had to perform a wipe to get it to fully boot which sucked. Now I'm also getting a force close whenever I try to start superuser.
[G1 Android Development] lushmoney:
oh yea of course i failed to mention that yea i tried to re enable it and it kept saying operation failed. also in task manager for root, i can terminate whatever is running, but only twice, and then it says "failed due to lack of root access" i dont get it...
[G1 Android Development] southsko:
It's like when you install a theme, it over writes some stuff. Just re-enable it. Not to hard really
[G1 Android Development] hacksome:
Thanks JF!. The Multi-Touch on Android phone is pretty as good as the one in iPhone Safari.

But while trying to get the 'root access', I am getting :-

"Sorry.. The application Superuser(process com.koushikdutta.superuser) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again".

Any clues?
[G1 Android Development] lushmoney:
yea i figured that, except it doesnt work it keeps saying operation failed
[G1 Android Development] JesusFreke:
I'm not seeing anything in particular that helps to determine what caused it. You might try re-installing it. If that doesn't work, I think you'll just have to do a wipe.
[G1 Android Development] d00m:
I think theres a problem with the Superuser program and its su with adb1.1. I tried it earlier on stock and it just wouldnt work. If you install the default su it works fine but I think the program needs to be updated.
[G1 Android Development] andonnguyen:
Before I update to 1.4, will these erase my theme and second boot screen? =]

I have rc30 1.31 installed.
[G1 Android Development] micm_:
same here :(

apart from that it is working great!
[G1 Android Development] JesusFreke:
I'm not sure about having to do the wipe. But re-download the file and re-install to fix the superuser issue. (I uploaded a new version to fix the superuser issue)
[G1 Android Development] JesusFreke:
Re-download the JFv1.4 ADP1.1 update and re-install. uploaded a new version that should fix that.
[G1 Android Development] Phromik:
Yes, it will. And as JF said earlier, themes will replace the browser.apk, so you will lose your multi-touch browser, unless the authors update their themes.
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
I have two superuser icons for some reason. One works fine and the other crashes after I press the icon. I'm running rc30. Went from 1.31 - 1.4. No themes.

EDIT: nevermind, I uninstalled one from the application manager
[G1 Android Development] JesusFreke:
Interesting! Thanks for the report. I think I know what the problem is/was. I'm not sure if there's anything I can do about it at this point though.

what happens when you type su in the terminal emulator. does it work normally?
[G1 Android Development] mark925:
I went ahead and did a wipe.

Quick question... when I do the wipe, it wipes out the symbolic links as well I presume?
[G1 Android Development] d474rpr:
This kicks ass! Thanx to everyone involved for this. My boss is going to hate that my G1 can do multi-touch like her iPhone. :p
[G1 Android Development] funbacon:
I think JF should delete the zoom button. If we can use multitouch to zoom, we do NOT need zoom button.
[G1 Android Development] JesusFreke:
Yes, it will
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
Yes it worked fine even when both were there. It still works fine now that one is removed too. Did it happen because one was 1.0.1 and the other 1.0.3? I had the 1.0.1 installed before I upgraded to your build that had it included. So I guess when it wiped system, it didn't wipe that original version.

One question though, whenever I type su in the terminal emulator, it prompts me for root access. But then the terminal is stuck in the command and I have to close and open it for it to let me actually use root. Is this normal? Its been this way since I installed superuser when it first came out.
[G1 Android Development] kemikal20:
Hmmmmm ok, I got it to work... if anyone else is using hutch 3 three.net.au in Australia you need to be aware of the following.

This works for 'phone based SIMS'

APN: 3services

This works for 'modem based SIMS'

APN: 3netaccess

I just removed the unwanted one, re-registered on the network and it started working after a couple of minutes

That's all you need really.... if you want MMS just do a quick search on whirlpool, there are a few posts.

Big props to JesusFreke for keeping it unreal!
[G1 Android Development] LPChris:
I'm having a really really weird issue where I can be playing certain games (Bejeweled, Sudoku) and the phone's awake timer doesn't register my screen taps as renewing the timer. So I can be playing along and pressing sudoku squares and everything is responding like normal. Then all of a sudden the screen will dim, although still respond to my touches, and then after that it just blacks out like its gone to sleep. For some reason the only thing that will wake it back up once the screen dims is moving the trackball around. Anyone else seen this issue?

Any news on if Jesus Freak has got a hold of RC33, and if he's developing a CFW with it? Or is he going to wait till cupcake? I'd love maps integration (I'm sure I've said that before)
[G1 Android Development] PaPer android:
when i try this on the recovery screen it says something like "no file found", why is that and why when i take .zip off the filename does it say "verification failed"?
[G1 Android Development] danguyf:
It sounds like the file is corrupted. You should re-download it and try again.
[G1 Android Development] Obsidiandesire:
Not meaning to patronise, but have you tired all the obvious things?

Backup all your files + Format to FAT32 (A quick format should do, but if you have the patience for a full format do that)

Download the Update.zip, make sure the filesize is exactly the same as it should be (For example, sometimes a download will "complete" but only half of it is downloaded)

I know I can actually open the file in Winzip/Winrar so try that, if it fails to open it's probably a corrupt file

Copy the file to your SD card (With nothing there whatsoever), via a Microsd-SD adapter if you can (or via your G1 + USB if you're doing it via adapter).

Then try it :)

Hope it's a help :) sometimes it's the strangest thing can go wrong, example being my reader hates 16GB cards, sometimes only copies a few Kb of a file before crashing windows, and wierder things happen in Ubuntu

If all else fails, try a different build/download server, like ADP1 instead of RC30 although if you're a UK user, i'll warn it groups numbers up into american style, so you'll get numbers like (014)-523-215-69 or something, where we prefer 01452 321 569

(If that happens to be a real persons number I apologise profusely and will change it ASAP :P)
[G1 Android Development] inpherno3:
i imagine that he either HAS or will get a hold of the rc33 as it has been pushed to many phones already. Just a matter of time before there will be a RC of it to be flashed. Matter of time though. Im looking forward to the video recorder, thats about it from the list of development paths.
[G1 Android Development] starship:
Thanks a million! I just upgraded my ADP1 first to 1.31 then 1.41 without any issue. You are great!

I am looking forward to an update after cupcake is out. Good job JF!

apps in market

Question... i downloaded screen crack from the market and installed it on jf1.41 and noticed that it doesnt work when i touch it with one finger. So i restarted my phone just incase but realized that it only works with multitouch. is that a fluke and can more apps be made/moddified on "accident" or on purpose for multitouch. I just wanted to know if anyone else noticed that.
[G1 Android Development] steveakast3:
Thanks JF! I haven't had any problems yet.
[G1 Android Development] bakgwailo:
There is a thread about this and the steamy app. Basically the multi touch hack is just that, a hack and can break apps ;)
[G1 Android Development] justanothercrowd:
That's because the hacked multi disregards a value that the app uses to determine the "size" of the touch eg finger or thumb. Any apps that dev make that take advantage of that feature which is included officially you will run into problems with the 1.41 ROM. 1.31 works fine.

Multi is a bit premature and shouldn't be used unless you are willing to deal with problems in the future since most dev's dont develop for a hacked ROM since it such a small percentage of the market.
[G1 Android Development] psycopcs:
ooooooh, ok. My bad :o i just freaked out

[G1 Android Development] steveakast3:
How is it possible that people have so many different problems? Is there that many bugs sor is the problem people who don't follow directions. Don't get me wrong, if your device gets messed up this is the place to be. I guess I'm just worried if it's the device and not the user.

People don't follow instructions and don't read threads. The expect other people to just help them without any effort on their own.
