So I am able to successfully install paid apps (Telenav and Touchdown are 2 good examples)

any attempt to doanload any paid app fails as well.

I seem to be having sporadic radio issues (Data signal loss randomly) which may or may not be related, I have a replacement G1 on the way and will update then (although maybe 5.0 will support paid apps who knows)

Reuthermonkey's Response:

Downloads are blocked for all "dev" phones, and these releases show the G1 as a dev phone.

Are you on 4.9? That's why you're having radio issues. What's your radio baseband#?

And installing apks will be unaffected by the above "dev phone" issue, because the paid apps block only blocks downloads from the market. If you have apps that you paid elsewhere (ie telenav and existing touchdown) that won't be affected because they don't charge on the market (the touchdown on the market is an unprotected demo).

For more info (like on the radio issues) see my sig.

Salamandars Response:

I am running 4.5 atm...

HTC MAGIC

Firmware 1.5

my radio baseband# is 62.50S.20.17U_2.22.19.23

Kernal Version is 2.6.27-a2235238

Build Number is CRA79

P.S. Thanks for your response reuthermonkey, and for constantly updating your sig link

HTC Magic pulled untill may

Is this going to have any effect on 5.0?

http://i.gizmodo.com/5196314/vodafone-reports-htc-magic-android-g2-delayed-until-may
[G1 Android Development] xyrcncp:
Why would it? There's already a working version of the OS. 5.0 is simply Haykuro's numbering system to a version of his modified OS which would likely be a mix of 4.5 and 4.9's features. Just because a carrier is delaying a handset it doesn't mean that the development of the OS stops.

Sapphire Radio on RC33

I've been keeping up with the progress and I must say, I'm excited about the work being done. Thanks for all those putting in the effort to make both these OSes better.

A few days ago I installed korndub's Sapphire radio for JF's RC33. It worked great for about a day and half. My signal was solid and better overall, no random drops and ridiculously better battery life (although it took significantly longer to charge). I drove from LA to San Diego last night, and as soon as, I entered North County my signal went nuts. It kept dropping out every few minutes and wouldn't display the EDGE icon. I reflashed the RC33 radio and all is back to normal, but I'm interested in knowing what the issue could have been, or if anyone else experienced something similar.
[G1 Android Development] Jevans46320:
Because it was pulled because of hardware difficulties

Idk I must be a noob = D
[G1 Android Development] MERKJONES:
Lol - I used to live in San Diego, and TMO is garbage down there... that's most likely it to be honest. I had Verizon back then, but my buddy had TMO and I could hardly hear him ever, he'd have 0 bars when I'd have all 5. Stuff like that. But back in Cleveland, this thing is a powerhouse of bars.

So thats just my personal opinion on that, I know TMO is sexy in the Bay Area - but yeah man, San Diego is hot garbage for TMO TBH IRL NEL IMO
[G1 Android Development] Baldyman1966:
Google need to hire someone to work on the magic, anyone know the name of someone who could help:)
[G1 Android Development] Jevans46320:
jf?

:d
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
wonder what the hardware difficulties were...

HTC - "yeah it's very nice, i reckon this is gonna sell well. wait, hang on, where the **** is the keyboard on this thing?"

HTC developer - "errr i kinda decided a software one would work better. I thought more people would buy it if we got rid of the G1's best feature..."

HTC - "... you're fired."
[G1 Android Development] funbacon:
I think haykuro will not stop modding Sapphire FW, because if he's successful, he will have main source code to mod new FW easily like JF did with RC30 and RC33.

Haykuro promised that he will release 5.0 today. I will not go out until he release 5.0.
[G1 Android Development] MERKJONES:
I do - but he actually just resigned from Google (he was in the iPhone devision / Software Engineer) to make iPhone applications full-time. I yelled at him to work with Android and the such, but to no avail.
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
Did he really promise that? I don't recall hearing that. I just know that after a few people hear about that promise and if we don't receive 5.0 today, there's going to be many people complaining.
[G1 Android Development] Jevans46320:
Isnt it true you cant obtain Root on the magic?

I swear I saw that on one of the pages :rolleyes:

When Haykuro releases 5.0 it better be on a different topic :p
[G1 Android Development] Baldyman1966:
When and where was this promise made. Unless you can provide a link we need a retraction before this thread explodes.
[G1 Android Development] jriley60:
Agreed, fairly certain that was never said
[G1 Android Development] stogchris81:
He did say he would begin working on it thursday(yesterday). But I never saw him say release today.

Working on <> Release
[G1 Android Development] AbsoluteDesignz:
in case anyone is skimming and not reading and is about to make a newbish post

HAYKURO DID NOT SAY HE WOULD RELEASE 5.0 ANY TIME SOON, HE SIMPLY SAID HE'D BEGIN WORKING ON IT ON THURSDAY AND EVEN IMPLIED POSSIBLY A WEEK UNTIL HE MAY HAVE SOMETHING VIABLE
[G1 Android Development] xyrcncp:
Then you're gonna be stuck inside then, because he did not promise it would be released today

Boy these threads are getting awfully chatty and OT and it seems some are rightfully getting irritated with the often repetitive questions :)

If the mods made this page and reuthermonkey's update page read only then people could start new threads for serious questions. The mods already said they would start banning people that didn't search properly before they started new threads. :p
[G1 Android Development] :
hey, just wanted to say i experienced the same issue, i am using haykuro's 4.5 now with the saphire radio and no issues. Im not sure if there is some kind of incompatibility with the saphire radio and the rc33 system. sorry you had issues with it.
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
Agreed 100% people who complain and push this poor guy that its too busy studying and working to help his unemployed Dad need Donations more than complains... my .02 cnts
[G1 Android Development] uberingram:
I yelled at him on Twitter to take a damned vacation from this. All the whining about release dates in this thread are going to drive the kid bonkers.
[G1 Android Development] d474rpr:
I've had the same experience using the sapphire radio and haykuro's 4.9. For about a day or two the signal is perfect but after doing a bit of mild traveling I've had the connection drop and the actual process on the phone was killed. It will restart itself but can be a bit difficult to manage if your call is dropped and then you have to wait for the phone process to restart. The only way I found to fix it is by doing a reinstall, though there may be something easier to fix this. Any thoughts?
[G1 Android Development] :
ill do some work on it tonight when i get home from work to see if it can be tweaked to work better with rc33. Most of haykuros' updates write the new radio (you can tell during the upgrade process after its done and you press home+back it will say writing radio.....)
[G1 Android Development] kundica:
Thanks for the feedback. It was great at first, I thought I might have been lucky. Oh well, guess it's time to check out 4.5.
[G1 Android Development] kundica:
My install was great until I did some traveling as well.
[G1 Android Development] d474rpr:
Thanks, hey if there is anything I can help with I'm more than willing. Just shoot me a PM or get ahold of me at d7urn3r2@gmail.com. I need to work on some more projects. :)
[G1 Android Development] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Hate to say this but I really don't think we need 3 pages of people complaining about some guy misunderstanding what was said concerning 5.0... I think one or 2 posts correcting him would be more appropriate. On a different note, I loved 4.9 and can't wait to see the improvements to come(animations are my fav). Keep up the good work!!!
[G1 Android Development] d474rpr:
I think we all agree with you.

Does anybody have this issue with 4.5:

Installed and wiped, everything fine. 2 days in use and 3x my phone was just black. First time I thought it could be the batterie: Connected it to usb, started the phone again, batterie was on 45%.

This evening again: Batterie was for sure about 95%, dead. Had to remove batterie, then the phone was able to restart.

Had RC33 before and never a problem like this. It seems to me like shutdown....

Thanks for any help or suggestions....
[G1 Android Development] :
thanks! i appreciate it! i will enlist your assistance :)
[G1 Android Development] Gimpeh:
I guess I'm back on the fence until the Firmware being recognized as a dev phone is fixed or if it even is. I finance too many devs on the market. I lost the ability to purchase copy protected apps and instantly many devs hit the streets :P
[G1 Android Development] pixel-painter:
I have noticed that with the pattern unlock on 4.9 it dims very dark and it is almost too hard to see the pattern, has anyone else had the same problem I haven't seen this anywhere else (yes I searched 1st :p)
[G1 Android Development] Baldyman1966:
not got this problem in 4.5, never actually checked in 4.0 as i don't use screen unlock.

have you reported this in the problems with 4.9 thread?
[G1 Android Development] reuthermonkey:
I don't think that's a bug. Even in the "preview" where you set up the pattern lock, it is much darker than the Dream/G1 pattern lock.
[G1 Android Development] pixel-painter:
Not positive it is a problem as my wallpaper is a little darker, but it does seem to dim a fair bit... hence I wanted to see if others were experiencing this too,

I don't want to misreport something :)
[G1 Android Development] d474rpr:
Do you have that third-party app that allows you to set a time limit before it locks with the pattern lock?
[G1 Android Development] chrisag92:
cant wait 4 the complete version

i luv this :)
[G1 Android Development] otto888:
On the YouTube app in 4.9...you can watch in HD. If some of you noticed that loading was a bit slower on YouTube...its because YouTube will select the highest quality now....even on GPRS...not a good move. A few pages back,someone said that you can upload to YouTube...I do not see that in 4.9
[G1 Android Development] jroid:
we still have all those wonderful features in 4.5 :)
[G1 Android Development] LPChris:
So if I want to flash this ROM, do I have to flash the radio and SPL as well? Or can I just flash the ROM and check it out?
[G1 Android Development] bassbox:
you can jsut flash the rom and check it out
[G1 Android Development] Baldyman1966:
on the subject of this thread getting unweildy do you think we should start a 5.0 thread, with the following instructions

"This thread is for serious discusion of the outstanding issues between us and a complete, stable release of the HTC sapphire/Vodaphone Magic OS. Its is

NOT

A place to tell Haykuro (or any other dev) how great they are.

A place to ask when the build will be ready.

A place to ask questions or discuss relating to any other build.

A place for off topic chat.

A place to complain about others breaking these rules.

Please note there are other places to do the above and anyone posting here should be mindfull at all times of these rules and if others are not, then remember rule 5."

I don't know if it will do any good, but its worth a try.
[G1 Android Development] pixel-painter:
No it's just the standard pattern unlock :)
[G1 Android Development] charnsingh_online:
A request

Please stop repeating wat is said. Can somebody go for a new thread for their comments like (cant wait to flash). Its a request and stop asking same questions like (how to flash, do i need the sapphire SPL). And for god's sake learn to use search. Don't make this thread so long that no one is able to keep up with the news. Please post here only some official things and discuss only about changes and further improvements. There is a thread for problems too. Go post there. No issues, bugs here. Just findings and discovery. I request the mods to please move the unofficial or problems post to some other thread coz this thread has gone a long way in less than a month. Speedier that JF's roms Which took him almost 6-8 roms to create such a thread. I again request stop posting unnececerally.. (sorry for spellings) .:o:confused::mad::eek:
[G1 Android Development] juangil:

[G1 Android Development] juangil:

[G1 Android Development] aeroboy1:
ok guys did i miss something or was there supposed to be a stable version uploaded today? i was kinda looking forward to a stable cupcake type version. can someone give me a clue?
[G1 Android Development] Minker17:
There was no promise of a version being released today (as far as I know).

Haykuro said he would star development on 5.0 last night. His Twitter page says he is working, so I imagine he is not working on it. Based on everything he is trying to improve/fix, I wouldn't expect a new build tonight. Who knows how long it will take. 5.0 will hopefully be a stable build with all features working, so I expect him to take his time with it.
[G1 Android Development] he3:
i hear them coming..... put the chickens and dogs inside!
[G1 Android Development] aeroboy1:
ya im totally willing to wait if its stable. but even the unstable version are a really nice improvement. its deff something to look forward to. ok well thanks guys.

I wish Haykuro would make a post when he updates the initial post...and a proper changelog...because I'm about to reflash 4.5 for the keyboard fixes...but I'm not sure if he actually fixed them in the downloads...or for 5.0
[G1 Android Development] johnnylicious:
NOTE:

all these builds are wiped-required,

therefore it rewrites the system files,boot, radio etc.
[G1 Android Development] rsweepe:
If the issue where it crashes after a call was fixed on 4.9 I would run that right now...id like to see that fixed first rather then the keyboard

[G1 Android Development] :
actually no, not all of them... i just installed the 4.5 (with the keyboard fix...YES ITS FIXED and I Downloaded from the first post....)
[G1 Android Development] AndroidSamurai:
Well,

I flashed back to 4.5 last night from 4.9 and noticed a whole new meaning for stability. My phone is acting like it is on crank it is so fast! :D

Haykuro messaged me on Gtalk and told me he had fixed the KB mapping and shot me the link. I am now using his 4.5 with KB fix and OMG it is christmas all over again... :eek:

I installed Open Home(Paid Version) with the Aero Theme and let me say I am loving it...

I have had no dropped calls, the network(edge) seems to be responding alot faster with the newer 4.5 build. I am just glad to have my KB working so I can get back in the terminal and hack away...

Again, Thank You Haykuro for putting so much time into these releases.

PS. To all you folks who keep b!tching and whining.... Eat Shyte... :p
[G1 Android Development] :
i concur, on both comments.....
[G1 Android Development] jjjackson56:
Great But not yet

Get work so far but not perfect will be waiting for updates.

things ive noticed

1. after calls it disconnects from network (force close)

2. autorotate when phones upside down it reverts back to regular

So far thats all

this was noticed with 4.9

[G1 Android Development] rantrav:
True I misread that post! I didn't wipe either.

My apologies to the OP I quoted on.
[G1 Android Development] :
i didnt wipe either, i went from 4.5 without keyboard fix, to 4.5 with fix by just using the update.zip...
[G1 Android Development] AndroidSamurai:
I did, but others have stated in previous posts(*HINT* Search for it *HINT*) that they didn't and have had no problems...

I always wipe before updating a rom... That way I know for certain if any problems arrise it is possibly a problem with the rom. ;)

[G1 Android Development] Gimpeh:
Any word on whether there will be a fix for the Rom being recognized as a Dev phone on the market? I know this is technically not a problem since this is what was designed to happen. This is the only thing now keeping me from flashing since I spend quite a bit of money on the market.
[G1 Android Development] corzo002:
No problem

I'm not having any problem seeing or downloading paid apps with 4.5
[G1 Android Development] themyth69:

[G1 Android Development] smuvman:
quick question

I've been reading (as always) but I haven't seen

an answer yet. I know there have been a few updates to 4.5 but is there still a bug with bt freezing the phone? That's the only thing stopping me from using 4.5 on a daily basis.
[G1 Android Development] Gimpeh:
Some reported that some copy protected apps would not show up since the market see's the rom as a dev phone. I believe one of those apps was the paid version of touchdown. Can you see that app and all aps that are listed at cyrket.com ???
[G1 Android Development] AbsoluteDesignz:
I've been using my bluetooth headset with 4.5 latest addition all day...no freezes...I think that may be a stereo bluetooth problem, or a 4.9 problem.

[G1 Android Development] andrews240:
I can confirm this problem with 4.9 Gimpeh. The My Downloads section shows all of my previously purchased apps, but I can only download one of them, Advanced Task Manager; none of the rest of my paid apps can be downloaded. It must have something to do with the copy protection, at least that is my guess.
[G1 Android Development] Gimpeh:
Ah, yet this is not an issue with 4.5? Atleast going on what blakestimac stated. Hmm, well I may be safe on going with 4.5; least till a stable 5.0 build is available. Anyone else out there can confirm that copy protection is not an issue with 4.5?
[G1 Android Development] defconoi:
yes I can confirm the copy protection is blocking us from downloading with 4.5 and 4.9
[G1 Android Development] jonnybueno:
copy protection

I can confirm that copy protection prohibits me from downloading any protected applications. You could always back up your apks using adb though.

Edit: I'm using 4.5 w/keyboard fix
[G1 Android Development] Gimpeh:
Weird, some are reporting the issue and others or not.
[G1 Android Development] blakestimac:
I know this is a waste of a post but is there a good thread on adb? I've set it up to flash a backup but can't seem to find how to push or backup apps with it.
[G1 Android Development] Dave RL:
I just upgraded to the latest 4.5 (keyboard fix) and now am able to use sterio bluetooth (S9) without freezing. I ocasionally get some cutting out but it's very functional now!

Headset volume keys work but not the track and play/pause (Need to play with this a bit more). Funny these worked fine when G1 was fozen.

We are on our way :D

-Edit- All headset buttons work (I disconnected via the BT settngs and reconnected with music off and it resolved the prob)

-Edit2- Music pauses for call and resumes. The call volume seemed a bit loud compared to the music volume but I've had only one call.
[G1 Android Development] stogchris81:
I can confirm no paid apps on 4.5 w/o kb fix.
[G1 Android Development] corzo002:
I second that.
[G1 Android Development] :
although this is not the place for it, common adb commands are as follows:

adb push file1 /data/app/file1 (if you are pushing to the user apps folder on the g1)

adb pull /data/app/ /appbackupfolder (wherever you create the folder)

fastboot:

fastboot flash partition imagefile (partitions: boot, system, userdata) (images if using nandroid: data=userdata.img all others match partition name)

fastboot erase partition

fastboot reboot
