[G1 Android Development] TemporalShadows:
I loved this ROM for the 1 day I used it...but I had to stop for 2 reasons:

(1) The microphone was too sensitive to background noise when on a call.

(2) Even though my APN was correct, I couldn't retrieve an MMS.

I tried everything I could think of to fix 2, and I have no idea how to fix 1. I tried to find a way to change it, but I'm not sure what determines that setting.

I love the more polished look, and is it my imagination or is the camera quality much improved? I noticed it was easier to take a clear photo. Nobody's mentioned this that I can see, but I took a couple of photos while moving and they were clear, whereas before even standing still they'd be blurry half the time from just the slightest shake of my hand.
[G1 Android Development] SpyderMS:
Is anyone else having a problem with Bluetooth Audio? I'm running 5.0G and every now and then the audio seems to pause/skip while playing MP3's on my Sony MBR-100, to the point that I'd rather connect it directly to the 3.5mm cable... :(
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
yeah I really don't want to go back to r33. I love BT stereo, and surprisingly enough, I'm loving the VK. I've been practicing on it, and now I can type faster using the VK than on the physical keyboard! The auto-correction and predictive text is really great. Plus you get less hand fatigue using the vk.
[G1 Android Development] salamandar:
I cannot believe this but I think Google is blocking cupcake app DL's, if you flash back to JF you can DL again.
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
This is more of a general BT stereo issue. You can google for "bluetooth stereo skipping" and you will find lots of hits.

Basically its because BT stereo sends out a lot of data so the BT headset is more prone to interference.

I usually get skipping when I put my g1 in my pocket. If its on the table with clear line of site to my headset, no skipping.
[G1 Android Development] wizern23:
I've been downloading apps for the past 2 hours since i got a2sd. they are not blocking downloads.
[G1 Android Development] youuishype:
well i still cant download right now.
[G1 Android Development] kronosx1:
App store downloads not workin here either. I have 5.0.2 G.
[G1 Android Development] youuishype:
Sounds Weird if salamandar flashed to JF's and hes downloading and we cant on 5.+
[G1 Android Development] wizern23:
I have 5.0.2H with A2SD and i was able to redownload paid apps along with 10+ free ones.
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
Where is everyone getting this mysterious 5.0.2G???? this is twice I've seen someone say they're running one but the ROMs on the code page haven't been updated for more than 24 hours and the latest G Build is 5.0.1. Are people just not understanding the correct terminology and what they actually have? I'm so confused =)
[G1 Android Development] salamandar:
gonna check H build then back to JF and then ill report back.
[G1 Android Development] kronosx1:
Its a conspiracy man. Get the tinfoil hat.

Its my bad. I hit the wrong key.
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
ha ha. No worries. I was just tryin to find out where to get it if it is floatin around somewhere =) Maybe it would resolve this ap downloading problem a lot of us seem to be spontaneously running into. If it's confirmed that Google is blocking us I say we do something about it. I'm conflicted if this is truth because if it is true, it inspires me to sell blackberries and anything else other than a G1 (that's right, you're messin w/ a salesrep fellas)... but conflicted because there's still nothing that compares. =L I really hope we have an answer soon.
[G1 Android Development] kronosx1:
I may go back to JF and see if that works for me. Brb. I'm goina try.
[G1 Android Development] SpyderMS:
This seems to happen even when my phone is sitting right next to my BT receiver :(:( I noticed some people have seen improvements after updating the radio. I updated mine the other day, but haven't tried A2DP since then, so I'll try that. Their issues weren't the same as mine, but I'm hoping for a miracle...

Check the build site, rather than the blog :)

http://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
No one at howard forums is being very helpfull @ the moment =L. If we're being blocked. Screw it. I'm keepin 5.01G. You can still download a lot of the aps directly from the developers websites... and I'm sure there are a lot of ppl here who aren't as moderate w/ aps as I am... but give me Openhome, the Mario Skin for it, Better Cut, Twidroid, G Backup Full, G Mote, Sazam, and The Weather Channel and I'm aight.
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
Ha ha ha. I am =) No 5.0.2 G there. The use of the number 2 and the letter G is what I was talkin about =)
[G1 Android Development] salamandar:
OK Update

JF - apps download & install

G - hangs on download

H - apps download & install

tested with both radio's
[G1 Android Development] youuishype:
so its just everyone with the G build? damn.
[G1 Android Development] ivanmmj:
So the question is: What seperates the G and the H builds as far as what google sees on their end? And whatever that is, how can we edit it?
[G1 Android Development] wizern23:
yeah i thinks its only happening to the g builds. i think i might be the only person with the h build up this late(1:53a.m.)
[G1 Android Development] SpyderMS:
*smacks forehead*

lol, sorry, wasn't thinking straight :o
[G1 Android Development] youuishype:
damn i was just getting used to the g build too lol.
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
Is the build.prop file different between G and H?
[G1 Android Development] wizern23:
the g build is i think literally the cupcake 1.5 google build while the h build is ofcourse a htc 1.5 google build made for chungwa telecom. they therefore appear as different firmwares?

just checked and the h build still has downloads for now.
[G1 Android Development] ivanmmj:
Yes. I have both of the ZIP's in front of me and the H version is smaller.
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
No worries =)
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
Can you post the H version's build.prop. I can push it to my G image and see if that reactivates downloads.
[G1 Android Development] kronosx1:
Well JF worked fine. So I'm goina go back to H. Ah well.
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
I'm so intent on seeing this issue resolved that I'm absolutely wired right now lol. If you could fix this for us tonight I'd be eternally gratefull =)
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
So is this deliberate action or just some strange glitch that's affecting some part of the system that only impairs the G builds?
[G1 Android Development] ivanmmj:
Here it is.
[G1 Android Development] wizern23:
I doubt that its just a messed up file or something like that for it to happen to multiple phones with the g build on them at the same time and on the day the pre-release 1.5 sdk is released. coincidence.....i think not.

now that i think about it android community had a post aout froogloid(or w/e its called) and how they saw that someone was using the magic in the U.S. it could of been a g1 running the g build port and downloading their program. what ever lets them see what kind of device downloaded their app could also be the way google might be blocking the g builds. using this theory then the h build must show up as an unkown device since its a prototype build for a chinese/taiwanese phone or it shows up as the g1 and the only way to block it would be to shut everybody out.
[G1 Android Development] youuishype:
now with this situation i have a reason to move over to the H side lol. which im doing as we speak.
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
I took the build.prop from H and put it in G, but I still can't download.

Don't know what else could be the problem. Maybe a wipe to reset the market data.
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
I like this theory. That means that if dwang's attempt to fix the problem is successfull we can easily gain download access for the G builds. I'll go back to H if I absolutely have to but the auto rotate transitions aren't nearly as nice and that's not nearly as impressive when I'm tryin to show my customers how I've modded my G1. Among a few other reasons.
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
I'll try that. I'm that annoyed by this issue right now lol
[G1 Android Development] koxx:
a got a problem since I moved to 5.0.1G. My Dream screen never goes in sleep mode. I tried to change timeout : no effect.

I didn't see any bug report about that...

anybody have this problem ?

By the way, I can't download anything from market too (from France) since today !
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
Something I noticed w/ this issue that hasn't been pointed out yet -

I made an attempt to update Openhome when this problem first occured. Although the ap is currently installed on my phone... when I go to Market, Market just gives me the "install" option (not "update") as if it's NOT on my phone. I imagine this could be part of the issue. If this IS the root of the problem... a simple temporary work around would be to always select "uninstall" before updating any aps.

Another cat who's running 5.0g who responded to my thread in HOFO first encountered this issue when trying to update OpenHome as well
[G1 Android Development] ivanmmj:
Maybe it's the market app itself. Does anyone know which files correspond to it?
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
wipe completed... rebooting...
[G1 Android Development] AbsoluteDesignz:
It appears that on 5.0,2h downloads work whereas in 5.0.1g they do not
[G1 Android Development] ppar:
I was downloading fine from the market on 5.01G until I tried to update the t-mobile app... now can't download anything :confused:
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
If you seem to have a slight slowdown in the g1 after using the H build... try the Open Overclock app...

I have mine overclocked at 500mhz max, 400 mhz min.. and its like having a ferrari engine under the hood ...
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
... and it's still not d/ling =( Man this sucks. guess I'll be using 5.0.2H. Now that the Youtube ap is ported to H it's a lot better. Can anyone on here port the auto-rotation transition from G to H? I was pretty unimpressed by the one on 5.0.1H last I tried it out.
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
Look who the cat dragged in... lol... whats going on fellow Herald cook...

You got a G1 now ?
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
Did EVERYONE who is encountering this problem first run into it when attempting to update an ap? That could very well be the source of the issue. Especially noting the "Install" (as if it's not on the phone) element I pointed out earlier.

However... it makes no sense in context of me having just done a wipe and still not able to download.
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
if you cant install, try clicking on the app thats trying to download, cancel it, and then redownload it... ive had to do that several times... damn you google.. damn you..
[G1 Android Development] ivanmmj:
I've had one for a couple of weeks but I've been too busy cooking for the Herald to really start playing with it much. ^_^
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
that hasnt worked either neither on wife or data services. and ive canceled and installed several times. The phone i have with H on it downloads right away. I mean if google is blocking the builds somehow i dont see how switching will make a difference seeing how they have access to both of theses builds and can block the H next and just havent yet....if thats what there doing.
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
Yeah that was my initial reaction as well. Doesn't work. All of us on G builds are ABSOLUTELY unable to d/l from the Market. after wipes even. There's definitely somethin goin down... epidemic level even. ONLY peeps on G builds are affected. un-rooted phones and H builds have no problem at all. I'm flashing to 5.0.2H and hoping that we're able to eventually resolve this G d/l issue.

Someone said somethin about a Magic being detected in the states and someone having a negative reaction to that being that it hasn't officially been released in the states. May be some measure Google is taking to prevent Magic use in the states prior to its official release (on the assumption that G builds are somehow registering as Magics w/ the Market). this seems like the most logical theory to me at this point. Which means we'll all eventually be able to use the G builds again... once the magic has been released in the states if this theory is correct.
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
i agree i think google is blocking the builds. I didnt even download anything before hand like some people to get the issue i just tried it and couldnt do it. I waiting for a work around I dont want to switch to H as i think there going to block that eventually as well
[G1 Android Development] bommel0815:
I use 5.0.1G apps to SD and can't download anymore, too. interesting. it worked two days ago :)
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
well thats why im holding off. it could be a issue with the market not these builds. and also i want to wait to see if H has any issues.
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
Damn.... SERIOUS problem. I've been enjoying Adult Swim whilst being on here all night this evening and now I've hit a brick wall. SQUIDBILLIES!!! I HATE this show. I think I'm going to bed as soon as I flash 5.0.2H
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
You can always come to H town ... lol...

thats messed up google if they did block cupcake... thats wrong...

but we will probably be next in H town. ( crosses fingers, and orders chicken blood )
[G1 Android Development] bommel0815:
If they want to block it, they would have a more elegant way like displaing an error message...why would they just make it non-functional without a message or anything?
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
you will probably have more fun with the G1...

I sold my Wing, and havent looked back since then... lol

[G1 Android Development] wizern23:
aHome had in it's description earlier today that it should be uninstalled and then install the new version. i didn't do it though because i had to wipe my phone going to the 5.0.2h a2sd.

The user agent for the magic build and the htc build might be different. i remember reading somewhere that the chungwa phone rom is meant for a chinese version of the g1 so it could have the g1's user agent id while the magic build would offcourse have the magics user agent id.
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
i dont think they would display a message i think you simply woulnt be able to access it and not no why.
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
I REALLY hope that doesn't happen. i don't know what I'll ever do. Don't think I can stand to flash back to RC33 now that I've become accustomed to all of the new features.

you'd think that Google would support their product (not like they haven't given Haykuro the tools to do what he has). It should be their goal to ENCOURAGE full use of the opensource... I mean... that IS their goal.

The anti-Magic in the US theory seems the most sound to me at this point in time. If something about the G builds identifies them as Magics to Market this would make perfect sense. and by that theory the H builds dont seem to identify as such... so maybe we'll be safe ::knocking on wood:: And by Wood i can knock on myself because that's my dad's last name lol
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
VERY good point! kudos to you! You just helped some of my worry to subside. THANK YOU! =)
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
Ha ha ha. As have I. I thought i'd still go back to my Wing for NES and Genesis Emulation every once and a while but I ended up picking up a Dash cuz it runs the NES emulation a lot better anyways. The Wing just feels like SUCH a clunker now that I'm used to the G1's capacitive screen and huge ass keyboard =)
[G1 Android Development] wizern23:
aHome had in it's description earlier today that it should be uninstalled and then install the new version. i didn't do it though because i had to wipe my phone going to the 5.0.2h a2sd.

The user agent for the magic build and the htc build might be different. i remember reading somewhere that the chungwa phone rom is meant for a chinese version of the g1 so it could have the g1's user agent id while the magic build would offcourse have the magics user agent id.

Ca somebody with the g build see what their build number is . mine is weirdly kila-user 1.1 PLAT-RC33 126986 ota-rel-keys,release keys. even though the model number is htc magic with the firmware version being 1.5

do the g builds have a different build number?
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
i agree but i can imagine the uproar as more us users get the magic build on g1 and others dont maybe there trying to avoid hysteria until its offical release i dunno. The other thing like i said im waiting to see if the H has problems becasue with that being for a different phone in china they may not block that build as it is specific to that area. Or maybe its just a fluke market issue i think we all have enough apps on our phones now to sit tight and see what is found out and worked around.
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
Yep. This is what someone theorized a page or 2 ago and that sounds like the most logical theory to me at this point. I hope it's true as well.. if so that means we'll never have a problem d/ling w/ the H builds =)
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
and if thats the case which is what im thinking becasue of the region the H is based on i will kindly switch over to the H version which ive already downloaded just in case they decide to pull the switch on the site also lol.
[G1 Android Development] wizern23:
yea that was me lol i was using more precise terms this time since i didnt really know what i was talking about then and had to find the right terms to use so that it would make more sense.
[G1 Android Development] kronosx1:
Well i went with H build and i have no issues. Its cool though.
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
no issues YET.... cross your fingers and hope that they dont block H. if everyone moves over there its bound to cause and issue
[G1 Android Development] mastercut:
One help please:

I've installed the latest H version, now i don't have any rig tones, i've downloaded the resource.zip but whe i have to to these files?

how to silent alert notification especially for sms?

thx
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
one way around this is to nandroid backup your 5.0g data, install rc33, download the updated apps you're interested in, copy them over to sdcard, put back 5.0g and manually install the apps. Repeat as needed. :-)

Personally I'm going to stick with G. We'll get the official cupcake update to the g1 soon enough and I can live with the workaround for a few weeks.
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
has anyone contacted or twittered Haykuro on this i mean if they block the build for G would him doing any further improvements to it be a point?
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
SMART MAN lol. If this theory is true... (Lord forbid) they might actually take THAT measure as well =( There will be plenty (including myself) that will be pissed by that kind of tyranny if Google goes that far though. That's way too Verizon for Google's character... but who knows. Better safe than sorry
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
oh my i dunno if i want to do that just to install apps as oppose to just moving over to the H build and staying there until maybe the offical G one comes out. that is long as its not blocked later which region wise it may not be affected.
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
ha ha. Sorry for not quoting you on that. I'm in absolute blitz mode between my activity here, HOFO and working on my phone all at the same time lol
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
dangit. That's one thing I just realized about the H build. I won't have the stock ringtone "don't panic". Seems silly but I REALLY like to use that w/ Twidroid. Sounds very appropriate. I don't have the skills and resources to extract it myself. Is anyone out there willing to isolate it for me and send me a copy? I'd be very gratefull.
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
quick question, do you no the back up link used to restore from the terminal?
[G1 Android Development] rkstarnerd:
I'm pretty sure I have it backed up on my phone. I'm at work though.. I can try to send it through gmail... ?
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
That'd be awesome =) AtariRevolutionary@Gmail.com. Thank you! =)
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
I'm super embarrassed to admit this but I'm quite the novice compared to most everyone on here lol. I rooted my phone myself w/ much ease but other than that I haven't really messed w/ terminal or ADP at all. I attempted to do a nandroid restore once and it didn't work at all. I am moderate enough on the programs that it doesn't take me very long to reinstall them either so I've never much felt inclined to take the time to learn more about terminal or ADP. My brother in law is a linux god though. He's been working w/ Linux for 12 years as his main source of income. Imma try and convert him when I'm out there this summer lol. But i really don't see him or my sister using T Mo at all so that might be a bit complicated.
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
If someone can post the link up again of how to do restore from your terminal i would greatly appreciate it.
[G1 Android Development] wizern23:
I have another theory i need somebody to please test. what if you port the market app from the h build to the g build. That might solve the problem.
[G1 Android Development] rkstarnerd:
I just sent it.

This whole thing about blocking G builds is a real bummer. :(
[G1 Android Development] kundica:
I'm bored and can test this out, I feel it's doubtful though. Give me a few, running a little slow tonight. Also, somebody asked a few pages back about the build # of G. It just reads PLAT-RC33. I compared my build.prop with the one from 5.0.2H and they're pretty much the same, at least for the phone info.

EDIT: I guess I need to know what the Market App is contained in since it's not its own app. This is outside my limited knowledge. Porting stuff like the PDF viewer was fairly straightforward.
[G1 Android Development] AndroidAutobot:
aight. Will Ferrell aside I hate The Oblongs and it's either go to bed, worry about all my settings tomorrow and sleep or continue to nerd out and be forced to endure more Adult Swim programming that needs to be replaced by more Tim&Eric or Robot Chicken and lose sleep. So I'm out. Peace y'all. Thanks everyone on here for your help and insight =)
[G1 Android Development] wizern23:
it's worth a shot since thats what messed up in the g build that works in h. anybody else find it funny that h is usually missing things that g has and now g is missing something that h has lol.
[G1 Android Development] wizern23:
the market is the vending.apk in /system/app
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
i just feel this will be fixed somehow. im pretty sure once haykuro or someone cant install apps on the G build it will either be fixed or whats the point of continuing the work on a build googles gonna block
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
I guess so much for OPEN SOURCE ehhh. i knew it was a cover up all along
[G1 Android Development] sino8r:
I don't understand why people are using the G build anyways. Most folks seem to like the H build and seems less buggy. Why go with G build? Size? I'm using H 5.02 and have NO problems at all... Any advantages to G build I have missed?
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
becasue the G build isnt that buggy and works close to what your already used to on the G1 just with the updates. H i wouldnt say its better it just has a pretty coating over the whole OS. i dont see a problem with switching its just a matter of preference which up until now we had..
