Read the thread please. It's been posted over half a dozen times thus far.

Current status of everything:

Build 4.0: If you do not need google sync, or google apps I recommend you use this. It works very stable, and is a very sexy OS.

Build 4.5: This is slightly older but more, if not completely, stable. It has all the google apps fully functional. But is the ugly google OS.

Build 4.9: A semi-release prior to 5.0 for those of you in a hurry (a.k.a. the i'm-not-sitting-on-my-ass release). It is the 4.0 release with google apps included. Slightly unstable, so please do not complain.
[G1 Android Development] TuXeyM11:
I did a wipe on the recovery screen, pulled the battery.

Booted the bootloader to fastboot.

Flashed system.img and boot.img

Rebooted the phone and waited like 5 mins, and it booted up...

DO NOT INSTALL IT!

MAPS do not work!

VK crashes the phone often.

MUSIC DOES NOT WORK!

Nothing works lol.

But it has support for like 50 different locale settings which made me happy.
[G1 Android Development] nockam:
This is exactly what I was looking for. 800+ posts is getting hard to sift through looking for this kind of info.

Does anyone think if I install hardspl, then I can flash back to JF RC33 right away, or do I need to do JF RC30 then RC33?
[G1 Android Development] Baldyman1966:
Don't thinks its a good idea to load the Andblog Cupcake build, sounds way to flakey. I'm sticking with 4.0 for now as it is stable and has a good feature set. That having been said it did bootloop on me this morning, so I had the fun experience of reflashing and restoring my apps/settings whilst on the train to work.
[G1 Android Development] mrgzg1:
can you help me which sequence to go to......

is it that u do firmware update first or SPL or drivers..... please help me with it... i m begginer
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
correct me if i'm wrong, but the SPL and the drivers do not affect the firmware update. They're not essential but if you want to install them, you rename the SPL to update.zip and update it normally, then you reboot holding the camera button and then press the back button to get to the Fastboot Menu. make sure you've downloaded the drivers to your desktop or whatever then plug in you're USB cable and it should try installing a new ADB device (i think) so just point it in the direction of the drivers and you're done :D
[G1 Android Development] zwuncki:
AGAIN:

Where can I download apps besides the market which isn't on my current 4.0 version?

I need Toggle Settings, Missed Calls, aTrackDog etc.

Pages like cyrket.com only descibe apps, no browser download links!
[G1 Android Development] Baldyman1966:
if you can revert to an older build (with App market)

download astro or Mybackuppro and backup your apps

revert to build 4

reinstall mybackuppro or asto

reinstall appps.
[G1 Android Development] doooshty:
Gmail notifications work on 4.9 for me. Vk still doesn't work for me under compose, however the hard keyboard still works so I'm fine:)

I'm testing 4.9 now, seems pretty decent! Keep up the good work!

Yes. I've root with 4.9.

Anybody wanna see if this works in the sapphire build browser: http://ajaxian.com/archives/iphone-...p-with-touch-resize-and-rotate-with-gestures?

It doesn't with RC33 Jf 1.42.
[G1 Android Development] Minker17:
Ran it since last night and really like it! The only problem is that I never got Exchange to connect. Anyone else still having this issue? I hope it's not just me.

Since I flashed to it just for exchange I ended up reverting back, but the build was still great for what it was! Will try 5.0 when it comes out.

Haykuro, have you noticed the echange client not working?
[G1 Android Development] Baldyman1966:
see if what works?

The vdeo or the code? short answer is neither.
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
So is this a working build right now? like i will be able to text message, make phone calls and the apps are good? whats missing from all of this?
[G1 Android Development] footboydog:
The demo multi touch app at http://www.sitepen.com/labs/code/iphone/events.html. I read somewhere that the sapphire browser is supposed to support touch events.
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
Go back and read a few pages, there's a list.

Maps is out, exchange is a not working, Calendar wasnt syncing...there's some more i cant quite remember..
[G1 Android Development] Baldyman1966:
Can I suggest you READ this thread or use the search function.
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
I have been READING this thread since the first page that it opened on and have been reading since but i haven't been on in a couple of days and there are multiple builds out there and i dont know what has what hence the reason i asked but im not saying anymore this thread isnt for this

[G1 Android Development] Baldyman1966:
I apologise if I can across a bit sharp, it is tiresome to have to see the same questions over and over from people when the answers are available in the thread. All of Haykuro's builds have been working builds, but not fully working builds. You are not advised to download 4.9 as it has stability issues.
[G1 Android Development] reuthermonkey:
While I get what's going on, this thread certainly isn't keeping anything easy. Info is spread out ALLLL over the place. A lot of useful posts were lost too. I can empathize with folks who don't get what's going on.
[G1 Android Development] Baldyman1966:
True enough, but if you do a search of this thread by user and pick out haykuro's posts you will have the info you need.
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
I didn't even know that you could do that.
[G1 Android Development] Minker17:
Haykuro, I'm sending you a PM also, but I wanted to let you know that I flashed to 4.0 and tried exchange and it works flawlessly. I haven't tried it in 4.5, but it works in 4.0 so there is something wrong with exchange in your 4.9 build it seems.
[G1 Android Development] eyesee3:
Not sure if this was just me, but my MMS(Could send Text Messages but Not Media such as Pictures) was not working when I went from Jf RC33 to 4.5 so I did this and my MMS is now working on 4.5. Note: I have the Data Plan and I see this below is the work around if you don't have the data plan, I would like to have the appropriate settings. Thanks!

Please let me know if you guys have different settings

mms

actually my mms isn't working either. what are the correct settings
[G1 Android Development] Minker17:
So the exchange support is from HTC, not Google, correct?

Anyone think Cupcake will bring exchange support? Or think that there is some way to integrate exchange into a JF build?
[G1 Android Development] reuthermonkey:
Since there seems to be a lot of confusion, I'm posting direct links to many answered questions here. I'll update this as needed.

Here's a summary of where we're at:

Firmware is Android Version 1.5

The larger Sapphire ROM means that releases must be cut down in size to fit the smaller Dream ROM partition.

Wifi and BT on all builds.

All builds support Apps-to-SD

Superuser available on all builds

Headset now works

Camera is fixed - working great (including video recording)

- The above 2 (headset and camera fixes) may have caused speakerphone/headset volume issues.

Battery life has improved using Android 1.5 with the new Sapphire radio update (2.22.19.23)

Video recording.

Browser is faster.

There are 2 build-lines: HTC's firmware line (4.0, 4.9), and Google's Firmware line (4.5).

Native Exchange 2003/2007 included in the HTC builds (ie 4.0 and 4.9)

NO Exchange included in Google build (4.5)

HTC builds have issues with the google apps (no google apps in 4.0, no maps in 4.9).

HTC builds have HTC-style virtual keyboard. Google builds have typical "cupcake" virtual keyboard.

Release 4.5 (Google) is the most stable and has fully functioning google apps, and even better browser improvements.

The HTC builds are generally regarded as "prettier".

Camera in HTC builds has zoom.

Autorotate works

Release 4.9 phone app crashes after making a phone call.

When you call someone using 4.9, YOUR phone vibrates when THEY pick up.

[G1 Android Development] acidnine:
I just did a quick thread search, anyone have a copy of the resources.zip file that haykuro at the first post that mysteriously disappeared
[G1 Android Development] acidnine:
Here was a test video recording I did with the new software. This is from build 4.9. Obviously the video is inverted and the colors are way off. My assumption is that the Magic has similar camera hardware, but not quite the same as the G1.

http://www.facebook.com/v/82445561017

Example: I am not blue, second example...it is raining and very dreary outside (MN weather) and not bright and sunny as the colors indicate.
[G1 Android Development] guitarfreak846:
Thank you for this! I think I'm going to get this when 5.0 comes out.

Quick question:

If i wanted to revert back to JF v1.42, how easy is it and is it difficult? I know Nandroid can help but honestly I dont know how to really use Nandroid. lol
[G1 Android Development] acidnine:
Just download the JF Updater from the market...should be easy enough since the 4.0 and 4.9 have root, not like that should matter.
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
Ok so after going through and reading all of this on how to apply it, i can apply it just like the other updates but do i HAVE to do a wipe on the phone for it to work?

EDIT* nevermind i seen that i do have to wipe. I want to apply it but just not sure if once i get on there if i wont want to use the new build due to missing stuff in there and then have to go through and reflash and redownload all of my apps
[G1 Android Development] Minker17:
NAND backups are easy. Read the second post (for windows) in the NAND thread.
[G1 Android Development] Baldyman1966:
Yes nandroid is easy. I just wish that nand writing was built in to the recoveryso we could recover without a computer.
[G1 Android Development] Minker17:
Agreed. Store all your backups on your SD, then pick the one you want to flash on the go!
[G1 Android Development] johnnylicious:
i agree maybe in the future builds from JF.
[G1 Android Development] d00m:
How is the andblogs build working for you all? Is wifi working?
[G1 Android Development] Minker17:
I haven't tried it as everyone said it was older than these builds. I really didn't see a point to doing it.
[G1 Android Development] eyesee3:
this is what i did
[G1 Android Development] blakestimac:
I must say I see a great battery improvement on my phone. I have a lot of down time at work so I'm constantly playing with my phone and when I get out its almost down to twenty percent. And now its still more than fifty %!
[G1 Android Development] Markus31415:
If everything would work correctly, this would be the best Firmware the G1 has ever seen. I like it very much, but I think it will take a very long time to run it like on the HTC Magic!
[G1 Android Development] chitownboi24:
so is 5.0 going to be the final version with everything working?
[G1 Android Development] Minker17:
That's the plan I believe.
[G1 Android Development] chitownboi24:
I hope so and like someone said before I hope there is two final builds one for google and one for htc. This guy is truly a genius i thought we would be waiting forever for this. he has truly made my dreams come true. I truly appreciate your hardwork haykuro
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
the 4.5 google image is extremely stable. I've been using it for the last 24 hours and no crashing or other issues.

I bet we get an official cupcake release from tmobile soon.
[G1 Android Development] reuthermonkey:
If 5.0 is 4.5's stability with 4.9's apps, then that's possible.

But with all of the bugs in 4.9, i doubt 5.0 will be the last version. No offense meant to hakuro at all, btw. It's just the nature of the beast that whenever all of today's bugs are fixed, tomorrow new ones are unearthed.
[G1 Android Development] landykos:
Camera Issues

Hey guys and gals, Love the updates on this.

I just flashed 4.9 on my phone everything seems to be working great so far. But the camera seems to be upside down in both picture and video mode. Has anybody else run into this or have a way to fix it??

Thanks,

LK
[G1 Android Development] dilaynie:
As stated before, known issue that will be fixed with 5.0

Along with Wifi/Bluetooth.
[G1 Android Development] TuXeyM11:
I'm gonna honestly say there will never be a "5.0" as you guys expect it.

There are too many hacks that have been done in 4.9 to make everything "fully functional".

Take the headset for example...

If it's not made by HTC, or google, there WILL be something messed up with it, no matter how good haykuro is.

We are gonna have to sacrifice something.
[G1 Android Development] rwbarnes67:
FYI all....

According to Haykuru he is a junior in High School.

What a bright future he has if he's doing this as a high school student!!!!!

anyone know what allow mock locations is?
[G1 Android Development] chitownboi24:
yes 4.5 is great I've had no problems except IM doesn't work and root doesn't work but other than that everything is great. I really want a final build based on 4.5
[G1 Android Development] MengasToyz:
what´s about exchange on 4.9. it does not work. has anyone the same issue :confused:
[G1 Android Development] tchort:
Yes there seems to be an issue, I went back to 4.0 to keep exchange going.

4.5

I've been using 4.5 for a couple days now and i am absolutely in love. I've had nothing but stability so far. : )
[G1 Android Development] eyesee3:
Market stopped working for me, restarting to see what happens

version 4.5
[G1 Android Development] n19htmare:
I think im gonna wait a couple more builds :P
[G1 Android Development] xavier6303:
Looking forward to a complete build with google apps and exchange...
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
So i was reading all of the flaws from the change log is there anything that tells what the advantages are with this build? Better signal? i heard longer battery life from someone earlier
[G1 Android Development] MoridinBG:
Definitely longer battery life. I got mine off the charger at 9.00AM, now (10.35PM, here) it is 54%. I have used 3G for about an hour, EDGE is on all day long, Skype for 1.30 - 2.00 hours and GPS for half an hour.

With Firmware 1.x the battery would have been gone long ago.
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
ok so with 4.5 i will need to apply the radio update and then the 4.5 or reversed? and i have to wipe first then apply the update and i should be good right?
[G1 Android Development] doooshty:
I agree, my battery is quite a bit better. Maybe it's due to not having wifi though. I don't miss wifi as much as I thought I would. I get full bars 3g at work and 2 bars at home.

Of note, I flashed last night before I went to bed. I installed my puchased copy of "Alarmed" and it caused random restart and boot loop. I had to reapply update and just use the stock alarm program, not as nice as alarmed, but better than 1.1 has.

Everything went fine, I woke up, went to work and called for someone to open the door. I was surprised to see that I still had the old HTC dialer...the slick white one. I got to see the nice "double tap to unlock", then I had the know radio crash issue happen.

HTC dialer was then gone=( Any ideas why it was still there? I was on build 4.0, wiped, 4.9, boot loop, wipe, reflashed 4.9...

I guess it doesnt matter in the long run...I got excited though lol
[G1 Android Development] got23hops:
what is the status of auto-rotate in the builds?
[G1 Android Development] devildogg2001:
this is great, i love this. I only downloaded 4.9 today but i been using it all day and havent had many issues.. all i've seen so far is when i make a call it works fine, but after i end the call it goes into airplane mode for about 15 seconds then the radio starts back up. I have noticed a few apps dont work also, so far i got dark keys, dxtop, ahome, and power manager..

Also, does anyone know where to get google maps from? i see it wasnt added to this build, and would like to download it... and does anyone know if auto rotate will be added? again, great job guys this is amazing
[G1 Android Development] MERKJONES:
The radio update is included in the update.zip itself. He pulled it out separately for someone on here I guess. And as far as wiping, sure... that would help a few things. There is a no-wipe version as well.
[G1 Android Development] Gimpeh:
Was this with the new Radio or without?
[G1 Android Development] reuthermonkey:
If you *haven't* installed a previous Sapphire release, and you're installing 4.5 from scratch, you DO need to install the radio separately. It is NOT included in the 4.5 release. It is included in all other releases though.

See my sig for a link to haykuro's post on this.
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
Does it really matter what order you flash the update or the radio first?
[G1 Android Development] rantrav:
google maps was giving him trouble so left it out of 4.9.... it should be in 5 tho!

AIRBORNE ALL THE WAY <---- thought id throw that in there haha :cool:
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
the radio isn't really necessary. I'm running the rc33 radio with 4.5 and its fine.. Maybe it helps with reception and battery life so it might be a good idea to install, but i've just been too lazy to do it.
[G1 Android Development] Minker17:
I went from a JF build to 4.5 and didn't have any network, don't know if it was my own problem or not.
[G1 Android Development] got23hops:
does autorotate work?
[G1 Android Development] reuthermonkey:
true. I'm using the RC33 radio atm with the 4.5 release. However, there have just been reports of unusual happenings with the rc33 radio on the magic.
[G1 Android Development] Ethanaxd:
new radio from 4.9 ****ts up my signal... it's just losing it an a-re stablishing connection... its like a freaking loop... over and over again..
[G1 Android Development] reuthermonkey:
I'm curious also, was this with the old radio (baseband 1.22.14.11) or on the new radio?
[G1 Android Development] rwbarnes67:
I've tried installing the 4.9 radio update to my 4.5 os twice and it fails each time.
[G1 Android Development] doooshty:
My improved battery was with the new radio. i can easily get through a whole day (5:30am-11:30pm) without needing to charge. Then I trow it on the charged at bed time and start over. I havent even calibrated this yet...
[G1 Android Development] MoridinBG:
I have been RC33-> Build 4.0-> Build 4.5 If it installs the radio update with 4.0, then yes, I am with the new radio.

Quick question. Does 4.5 suffer from the reboot issue too? If I power off and then on the phone, would it boot normally, or the boot loop bug is present in 4.5 too?
[G1 Android Development] Mr.Jones:
Are any of these new builds stable yet (stable enough to be able to use on the daily bases)?

A quick reply would be greatly appreciated
[G1 Android Development] uberingram:
Please read the thread. Each build has strength and weaknesses. I prefer 4.5
[G1 Android Development] reuthermonkey:
see my sig.

I don't have that issue with 4.5. Boots normally. Very stable.
[G1 Android Development] AbsoluteDesignz:
To any and all future posters...of all the builds (i've tried them all, even xmoos intially ahome having one) 4.5 is the most stable.
[G1 Android Development] Baldyman1966:
See below.
[G1 Android Development] Minker17:
I'm jumping on this bandwagon. However, I'm sure I will be a hypocrite and ask a question sooner or later. :)
[G1 Android Development] kevev:
I was the one who asked haykuro for the radio rom(Thank You!)

I had the same issue. I think it is because the *.zip file has the boot rom and the radio rom included. I am going to try to install 4.9, then overwrite with JF 1.42 RC33. Since I only want the radio right now.

haykuro, can you re-release it?
[G1 Android Development] acidnine:
I think you need to make the letters in your sig bright red, too many people asking the same questions and they are seeming to ignore your signature.
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
look at haykuro's posts, in one of his messages he has a link to just the radio..
[G1 Android Development] xdviper:

[G1 Android Development] xyrcncp:
:mad: Seriously...why? Why not just leave it in twitter?
[G1 Android Development] Mr.Jones:
Both are very good, yes 4.5 is more stable but yeh only major problem I c is rotation (opening the keyboard the screen doesnt rotate) but great job on this =)
[G1 Android Development] dixxa:
not too long ago haykuro explained he had a real life too.

could you please be patient and stop harrasing him

Don't worry he will do it :)
[G1 Android Development] Meltus:
haykuro did ask a question on his twitter and i'm assuming xdviper posted his response here because he doesn't have a twitter account, although i do agree that this thread should be kept separate from twitter.

edit: i mentioned twitter way too many times in that sentence lol ><
[G1 Android Development] got23hops:
im on 4.5 and it rotates when I open the screen/keypad. It just doesnt rotate when i put it on its side
[G1 Android Development] rwbarnes67:
Ummmmm, yeah.... that's the one that we were talking about. We tried it and it didn't work.

You can try it for us and let us know if we're right......:eek:
[G1 Android Development] Mr.Jones:
Same here, if that would work it accually would be stable enough for everyday use, im loving the onscreen keyboard =)

so regarding the radio update, it would be more helpful to list the error message received not just the fact that it doesnt work.
