so I followed the link in your sig and I keep getting an error message stating:

error reading /sdcard/cm-recovery-1.2.img header

edit: oh you know what? I wasn't in RECOVERY terminal. I was in terminal from my phone. But it still said "flash image not found" :/ whyyy :] Alright, I mounted my phone to my laptop again, deleted the .img, and then transferred it again one more time just in case. Then I tried the code in emulator from the phone and nothing came up so I'm guessing it worked!

YUP. Just confirmed it worked. Now to try Apps2SD...
[G1 Android Development] sino8r:
If anyone wants an audio fix for headphones and louder speakers, here it is. Download Meltus fix (v3) and replace the files in /etc with the 3 three from v3. Use adb or terminal emu to do so.
[G1 Android Development] JazzMac251:
I wish the dude were around so I could ask him which apps he thinks run better on internal. Some are default app and dalvik on internal and there's probably a reason for that. Does anyone know which ones should stay? I'm about to move apps to SD (again) and would like to avoid any unnecessary problems.

also, bump on the battery issue from a page or 2 back

Help with Hero -> Thedudes

Alright, so I have haykuro's Hero Rom and I want to change to v1.3RC1, so is this what I should do?

-reformat partitions

-wipe phone

-flash update.zip (v1.3RC1)

-wipe (just in case)

-Home+Back

Thanks in advance

*EDIT*

Oh and what should I do after flashing the rom to make it better?

Ext2 or Ext3 ??

Is there a simple way to tell which you are running? I setup with aps2sd 2 and ran fix_permissions and fs_update (or whatever they were called, I forget now) and just want to check. Is there a particular directory created that will tell which you are running? :confused:
[G1 Android Development] kusotare:
well, in addition to the steps you listed, make sure you have all of your stuff on your sd card backed up because formatting is gonna erase all of it. also, if you're creating your ext3 from scratch, then cool. if you're going to use appstosd2 to set it up, after you get your apps moved to the card, reboot into recovery, alt+x to the console, su and update_fs to convert to ext3 (appstosd2 only formates ext2).

if update_fs ran without a hitch, then you're on ext3. the easiest way to tell though would be to download the 7tools partition manager demo from download.com (its free), connect your phone to the computer, mount the sd card and open the partition manager. it will tell you exactly what kinds of partitions you have. but you probably dont have anything to worry about, so i wouldnt sweat it too much.
[G1 Android Development] Nooty:
Thanks for your help kusotare

I was typing update_fs in the terminal thing in recovery and nothing happened, but then i found out it was upgrade_fs, but thanks for all your help!
[G1 Android Development] Jamison904:

Tourist_007 thanks buddy.

My issue isn't how loud my volume is hearing the person I am talking, but the how loud the mic is. Everyone says I am yelling into the phone when I am only talking normal. Does this fix this? Or am I way in left feild?
[G1 Android Development] Tourist_007:
My understanding was that you couldn't find a valid d/l link. I've never had the issue of too loud mic. You could give a free market app called "volume control" a try, which some options for speaker, headset and ear piece and various individual controls.

Also available is AudioManager Console Widget
[G1 Android Development] NeoBlade:
I think quite a few of us are now using that app to control volume levels. I'm pretty happy with mine as it stands but I know what once I'm in office its best not to have my handset on max so everyone can hear!

Odd that you couldn't grab the original links though as they were attached to the post...
[G1 Android Development] herbjr:
Thanks for this but I still need a little help. I don't have a pc to work from atm so I do all my updates on my phone. Is there anyone who can sign it and upload it so I need to do is rename it and run it on my phone?

Or if anyone knows the commands to run in the terminal to change the files then let me know.

I have to say I'm kind of happy to see that I'm not the only one having this issue. My battery went from 100% to 15% in three hours sitting in my pocket. No wifi, no 3g. It's pretty much unusable.

I'm going to try a wipe, reformat and re-flash if I have time.
[G1 Android Development] NeoBlade:
My mobile had a nice full charge and I've briefly ued it to check emails etc. Finished charging at 1:30am and its 70% at 4am.

WiFi off, Bluetooth off, 3G on. No additional background services running.

Compared to 1.3b11, the battery doesn't seem to be holding its charge. However from what I know the changes between 1.3b11 to RC1 were minimal.
[G1 Android Development] Tourist_007:
OK. This is just a starting point to get you searching in the right direction. Under "Spare Parts" check battery history and usage statistics. These might shed some light on what/how battery is being used for.
[G1 Android Development] NeoBlade:
Or use a program called Watts to more accurately map the percentages like I have for battery use.
[G1 Android Development] kaotikking:
actually i have had the kinda oppostie effect on mine..... i had mine on from 9 - 5 today i just underclocked to 245 it during screen off time using the overclock widget and had 2G on all day this rom seemed to handle the wake time for phone calls better for me.... just an observation

I took over 100 pix today on it cuz i went to the zoo and send about 50 texts and made 5 calls.... just for a "reference"
[G1 Android Development] NeoBlade:
It is really weird... My girlfriend called me and the phone took so long to bypass the lock screen that all I could see was a black screen. It managed to get to the Call screen for about a second but by then the call was sent to voicemail. Phoned the missus back to explain as she wasn't impressed :P

It is odd though as it was rock solid for me back on b12 but thought RC1 would be the one. Am kinda thinking about going back although not at this hour... Its almost 4:30am!
[G1 Android Development] BlueBoar:
Not sure what I am doing wrong but I can't seem to run "upgrade_fs"

I just updated to 1.3RC from 1.3b9, I wiped like I always do. Everything is running great, no problems at all, just would like to make the leap from ext2 to ext3 thats all.

Recovery consol:

/ # upgrade_fs

sh: upgrade_fs: not found

/ #

Not sure if it would make a differance but I am on JF recovery image.

Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] NeoBlade:
Yeah, for that command to work, you'd have to be using Cyanogen's recovery image. Feel free to look at my signature for a link to it. Then you can run that command.
[G1 Android Development] BlueBoar:
Thanks, worked great.
[G1 Android Development] kusotare:
Yeah, for those of you guys who are having what sounds like serious battery life problems, please check your usage statistics before asking to have them fixed. I'm running the same rom you guys are with some other heavy customizations and about 85 apps on my sd card (which I use frequently), widgets on all 5 screens, talking 3-4 hours a day on the phone, running gps tracker every 3 minutes, using the browser pretty heavily, and texting pretty much all day. My phone came off the charger at 10am. I'm now at 58% at 11pm with all of that usage, and thats the stock G1 battery.

So I can assure you, its NOT the rom thats eating your battery. Its something you have installed.
[G1 Android Development] NeoBlade:
More often than not they are services on your mobile thats eating up battery life. I ran Advanced Task Manager to have a little look a few hours ago and realised that I've left PicPush on and SimLock was running too. Have removed/changed settings for such services now and shall see how it goes.

Hey guys I'm currently running cynogens 3.4 rom and was wondering if thedudes 1.3rc1 is faster then cynogens. If it is, then here I come 1.3rc1! Haha but anyway again if it is, am I required to wipe then flash the rom? If so, anyway to backup all the apps I have on my partitioned sd? And do I have to repartition my sdcard as well caz if I do, then damn that's too much of a hassle... haha thanks in advance for your help guys.
[G1 Android Development] MontAlbert:
so when you turn the screen on you hit the widget to take it back to stock freq which is 528? and then when you close screen you turn it down?

****edit**** just downloaded and installed this widget- awesome functionality- if u dont have it- get it! so many functions- you can set max and min. freq. for when it is awake and for when the phone is asleep as well- set it to be on min freq when sleeping and max when awake. plus other things- and it is free! i would pay for this!

http://www.cyrket.com/package/org.freecoder.widgets.overclock
[G1 Android Development] jayb222:
I'm on the last beta released, 1.3 12 I think, and my battery life is great! I'm getting around 24 hours.

I no longer over clock. My battery was getting hot when I did. Is that normal when running at 528? Does anybody else's battery get hot like that? I over clocked it with Hero and was getting 3-4 hours. That had to stop. And with dudes build all is fine. No overclocking needed. :cool:
[G1 Android Development] osho741:
I'm not sure there is much point to using the overclocking apps on this rom. It is already set at 528 max 248 minimum so what does the overclocker widget do that the phone isn't doing already?
[G1 Android Development] MontAlbert:
is there a minimum set for this? i dropped my off screen freq even lower- why do i need it high when the screen is off? hopefully it functions ok still- actually just had a thought- not a good idea- when at gym with workout manager, browser, a2dp, and rockon running with screen off i reckon i will have to clock it high- easily done with the widget. :D
[G1 Android Development] KaL-EL3038:
alright...well

This might be a dumb question but I currently don't have a pc and I have dudes 1.2 b and I wanted to upgrade to rc1 but I can't cause my friends pc is not working and that's how I did my other update so my question is is there a way I can download the rc1 one thru my phone and update like that???
[G1 Android Development] SpyderMS:
Same problems here, and my friend also has the same problems. Have noticed this happening since 1.2.

I'm also having problems with GMail. It doesn't seem to send data back to GMail. If I ever try to send an email, it stays in the Outbox on my phone, and never actually sends, even after manually syncing my phone. I even tried marking some emails as read, and although the phone showed them as read, when I log back into GMail on my computer, the emails were still unread. I can receive emails just fine however... No clue why this is happening...

Edit: I've seemed to fix the GMail problem by wiping...
[G1 Android Development] pleiades:
I can confirm BT is *NOT* working with RC1. The in-car BT pairs OK, however when making or receiving a call, the screen of the phone indicates BT, but sound comes from the ear piece, not via BT and the in-car sound system. Wiped, flashed, re-flashed ad nauseam, to no avail.

RC7 worked flawlessly, RC10 behaved similarly to RC1 i.e. nada BT.
[G1 Android Development] KozzioU:
I have the same problem and it renders this build unusable for me :/
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
I am getting force closes on rc1 after wiping. Not sure whats causing this.

[G1 Android Development] alritewhadeva:
Try running the fix_permissions script
[G1 Android Development] jinx10000:
I came from google ion. I did a backup of all APKs. Wiped my phone. Installed 1.3 RC1. Installed exact same apps with exact same settings, and my battery dropped like a rock. I agree that it is not the rom by itself, but it probably doesn't get on well with at least one of my apps that worked fine on ion.

For example ambient light sensor force closes, naughty API?

Love the rom and will come back to it when I have time to figure out battery draining app or apps.
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
Hmm that didn't work. The market still force closes.

When I did a wipe and flashed straight to rc1 even the browser force closed. I then wiped, flashed to 1.3b12 followed by rc1 and now the market only closes. So something must still be wrong with rc1
[G1 Android Development] cyrusvn:
I get around 24hrs with moderate usage on this ROM. Is it normal for a stock battery?
[G1 Android Development] KozzioU:
I adb pushed the files from the fix to the device, rebooted, but it didn't work.
[G1 Android Development] xdavidn88:
My battery drained like a ***** on the 1st day of RC1. It drained to 2%.

2nd day, it lasted me to 66%. Big improvement.

Though on both days, I did a reboot towards the end of the night. (It might have been my 3rd reboot after flashing the rom both times). But my apps all disappeared. I looked at "My Downloads," they were all there but none could be launched.

Then I get a damaged sdcard notification. I go ahead and format my sdcard. Apparently it removed my ext2 partition.

I took this opportunity to try out Marcus's a2sd2 app. Works like a charm. I am running Beta 12 right now since I didn't have problems with it.
[G1 Android Development] jump_912:
Just want to share with you, I adb push Meltus V2 and reboot and it fixed the bluetooth headphone problem.
[G1 Android Development] KozzioU:
Holy crap - it worked! :D Thanks :)
[G1 Android Development] kusotare:
Kal, I see nobody answered your question, so I will.

Yes, you can do it that way. First, you need to have a file manager like ASTRO or Linda FM installed on your phone (you can get both off the market). From there, simply download the rom off of page 1 using your phone, use the file manager of choice to change the name to update.zip and put it in the root of your sd card, and you know what to do after that.

As for everyone else: before you post issues, please make sure you have done the following:

1. Wipe-flash-wipe on install.

2. fix_permissions

3. run appstosd2 to set up your a2sd if youre using it.

4. Pushed meltus's bluetooth fix.

5. ran upgrade_fs

6. used spare parts/ATM to see what is eating your battery.

After you've gone through those basic solutions (all of which have been covered in the last 5 pages), then post a problem if you're still having one, but at this point we've had over 50 pages of the exact same problems with the exact same fixes in the last 4 days. If taking those steps is too much, SEARCH. Thanks.

Low on Space.

Hello, I keep getting the Low on Space warning. This has caused my phone unable to Synchronize my Gmail, Contacts or Calandar.

I had The Dudes 1.2b,

I performed the tutorial for Apps2SD.

Upgrade from ext2 to ext3.

I have a 8GB, Class 6 and I chose 3.6GB for Ext3 and the rest for FAT32.

I upgraded to Dude's 1.3RC1

I have Baseband Version 62.50S.2017H_2.22.19.26I

I'm using Cyanogen's Recovery Image (CMrecovery1.2.img)

I've tried fixing the files (alt-F)wiping(alt-w), fix_permissions (using alt-x), and reflashing (alt-s).

What am I missing? Sorry if I did not give enough info I've been tring to do this for 12 hours and I'm tired.

Any help?

NOTE: I applied apps 2Sd to another SD card. I reformatted and repartitioned orignal HDSD card. KEEP EXT2/3 AT OR BELOW 2GB. Anything above that causes "Low on Space" warning. I hope this helps someone. I guess keeping Ext2 below 2GB is common knowledge, but I just recently learned this.
[G1 Android Development] JazzMac251:
What makes you think we haven't?

I don't know what was going on, but i reformatted my entire SD card, Wiped, reflashed the dude's ROM, redid the ext 2 partition, reconverted it to ext 3in cyanogen's recovery console, redid the apps to sd thing with marcus' apps2sd 2 app, reinstalled my apps, and that fixed whatever was going on. instead of a line with a 45 degree slope in watts (over a 12 hour time period), i get a line with about a 4 degree slope averaging a loss of 1% per hour.

Don't know what's going on. Same apps, same ROM, same usage. I did notice that i had a lot of doubled apps because of all the flashing i've been doing recently, but honestly that shouldn't have caused any problems. Why would it matter if you have 2 Wifi Tether for Root Users as long as neither is running? All i know is that it's fixed now. :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
I resolved the issues I was having with force closes.

All I did was re-format my ext3 partition, wipe the internal memory, and reflash 1.3RC1.

Seems to work fine now.
[G1 Android Development] kaotikking:
technically we are not overlocking we are underclocking... the hardware is maxed @ 528... i turn my phone screen off whenever its not in use (tapping the end button) so when i wake my phone is when i need the speed... usually 128 or 245 is my "off" speed... whats the sense in running it any higher?... as for missed calls i dont have ne probs with that so far... its more of user choice to control ur processor speed to save battery life then nething else also having the widget enables u to reset ur "on" speed to 384 for those of us who dnt require such speed ALL the time

As for everyone else having battery life issues i have a stock battery as well and this mothod for me gives me 6 hours life minimum... only background programs i run are weatherbug and netcounter

[G1 Android Development] NeoBlade:
Just putting my mobile again on full charge after some tweaks, noticed some apps were oddly running as a service etc. Will upload my Watts graph later on as it clear as day what was causing it.

Think I might underclock once again to 128MHz after I've pushed my normal audio files to the phones internal memory as that should help with response time.

Shall try out V2 as well of the audio mod as well at a later date as things wre working for me, but just need a slight tweak.

Hey kusotare thanks a lot man for the help but I got one question. You do the whole alt-l method then I do alt-w...alt-s....alt-w....is that what you meant by wipe-flash-wipe???
[G1 Android Development] NeoBlade:
Yep that's what is meant by a wipe-flash-wipe. Generally speaking you don't need to wipe after you've flashed... If you do have further issues its better of formatting your EXT2/3 partition and start again... After a backup of course.

<-- noob...how do i install dude over JF

Hey everyone, im a noob at flashing and im actually really scared of bricking my phone!! Right now im running JF 1.51 with lucidrem apps to sd, so the question is what things do i need to do to flash to Dude's cupcake? Thanks :D
[G1 Android Development] NeoBlade:
Backup via Nandroid as a precaution.

Then just download the latest Dude build, put it on your SD card and rename it as update.zip. Boot into the recovery image (reboot the mobile then hold HOME + POWER) and wipe (ALT+X) then Flash (ALT+S). Once it has finished, reboot (HOME + BACK) and all should be working.
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
You will not brick your phone while flashing another rom, so don't worry.

Since you are coming from a JF build it is recommended to wipe before flashing the Dudes Cupcake.

This is how you do it:

1. Download the Dude's Cupcake 1.3RC1

2. Save it onto the root of your SD Card and rename it to "update.zip"

3. Power on the phone while holding the "home" button

4. Once in the Recovery Console, press "alt + w" (This will wipe the phone)

5. Press "alt + s" (This will flash the Dude's Cupcake 1.3RC1)

6. Press "home + back" (The Phone will now reboot)

And you're done. The first boot might take a few minutes so be patient.

Pop over to Meltus's thread as he was the one that edited the audio for such modifications. The first post of his thread has full instructions - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=517745
[G1 Android Development] NeoBlade:
On the Dude build the homescreen does not rotate by design, personally I rather it this way myself. On older builds Droidsans used to be able to enable auto-rotate on all screens.

I use the JS Weather widget myself (you can find it in Dude's resources.zip) and it works fine. Although after every update I have to delete and re-add the widget, which takes all of 15 seconds.

Make sure your GPS is enabled as well or at least Wireless Networks (Settings > Security & Location) if you want it to automatically find your location.

Glad you have it running smoothly though and can enjoy the build ^_^
