Is camera from H build ? Does camera button work ? If H camera with capture button support , this build is the best build. I wait for this only.

About this build ( I've never test) my point about it:

1. The build in Home is very poor idea, Dude should remove it, and upload an apk file for someone really need it. Original Home is better (about UI)

2. This build comes with multi-touch, multi-touch kernel is a mod module, not original from google, it really poor, I think you should creat a build without multi-touch, mod multi-touch make some app crash, make us type on virtual keyboard hardly

3. This build comes with Teeter =)). Should remove it, waste space

I think a best build now is a build with :

- HTC sapphire dialer

- HTC contact

- HTC camera with capture button support

- Sync exchange + google and option to config all

- All feature from original ADP 1.5

All most of Dude's new feature is new applications which replace some old app, I don't say he didn't do anything, he is awesome, he makes H camera work on G build and more (I've never test his build)
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
You should switch to an H build then...O_o
[G1 Android Development] funbacon:
H build don't support capture button, H build doesn't support sapphire dialer and sapphire contact. I'm using haykuro 1.5 r2, r3 comes with multi-touch and Chinese keyboard, I don't need both of them
[G1 Android Development] jjlean:
I didn't read the whole 100 pages. Just wanted to say my battery monitor icon isn't accurate on the notification bar by the clock. Over all I like this build though. Awesome work. I love you guys.
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
any way to port HTC sapphire dialer? thanks
[G1 Android Development] leomak:
I am trying to install CIME's update.zip in other thread but never succeed. I tried to do it manually but found out /system has no space for it. Is it normal for Dude's version or I did sth wrong?

Thanks

[G1 Android Development] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
I would say(and I'm sure The Dude would agree with me) that it's his prerogative exactly what he does or doesn't want in his build. If you don't like what's in it you are free to use another one or make your own that has the features you like. I for one like everything better about the original google dialer/contacts/etc except the camera app, so this build is perfect for me(plus he build in my more stable version of apps to sd which is a + :cool:), but different people like different things.
[G1 Android Development] stogchris81:
you being too nice. that is why i am not responding to funbacons post. i would never tell a mod what he/she should or should not put in their build. that takes a lot of nerve and ego that i dont have.
[G1 Android Development] Gimpeh:
I'd take what he said with a grain of salt. I don't think it was meant as an insult as english is not his first language.
[G1 Android Development] KidJethro:
+1

Agreed..
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
I know I laughed pretty hard. He probably doesn't realize that my "Home App" was built from google source and modified by me. I'm providing home features that you would normally have to pay for (and then wouldn't have working this or that)

For bacon, he's not very fun.

"Woo peed on my rug"

I'm glad you guys like my build. I'm glad we have choices. I'm glad there is such a thing as freedom to code. Just like any art, yes this is art, there will be critics. The key is to listen to the ones that make sense, and ignore the ones that don't agree with you ;)

@leomak - I would suggest installing the cime as an app. It isn't small enough for system, thus why i don't include it.

adb install HTC_CIME.apk

Or install from SD card using one of the many installers. It works great this way. That's how I install them.

@juangil - I know. I like that dialer a lot as well. I might look into it one day, but I'm trying to keep this build built upon the Android Open Source Project, with some stuff put in as needed. If I went with the dialer now, I'd never be able to improve the one that comes with android in the future.

One of my 'dreams' of this build is just like you guys saw with Launcher. Innovation through app improvements by changing the source code. I considered making lite not have these improvements...and in the future...that may be how it is. But then again, that's why I included the original launcher in the Resources1.1.zip so if people felt it wasn't necessary, they could replace it with 0 issues.

PS - How did 1.1a work? or are you guys too scared to load after 2 days of 4am uploads hehe.

PPS - I'm seeing some themes pop up...ported or not, this is wonderful. If you port a theme or (hopefully) create a new theme, please pm me the link to the thread or the update.zip and I'll include it in the original post (Man do I wish I had replied to my thread first now...might be the reason I start a new thread.)
[G1 Android Development] KidJethro:
1.1a works fine for me. Kinda of a bummer to not see 881mb free anymore, but I certainly understand why you did it. :)
[G1 Android Development] g1junky:
quick question...i dont have a data plan and im not able to use adb to get pass the registration right now...so i need to know if this build has the skip option when signing into the gmail account????
[G1 Android Development] JaboJG:
Yeah please everyone do that, I'm sure we'd love to have a list of all the working themes for Dude builds.
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
It's ok, I'm going to work on modifying SettingsProvider to show /system/sd free space so you can know how much free space is on your ext2 partition. While it is really cool to see I have 1.1gb free on my phone, I want the free space for the internal phone to be accurate, causes less confusion.

@G1junky - Not only does it have the SkipSetupWizard option, I have an option that doesn't lock your phone if the sim isn't inserted. You could use this as a fancy google pda if that's all you cared about and had a wifi connection.
[G1 Android Development] KidJethro:
I agree with that 100% :)
[G1 Android Development] stellarman:
Bluetooth clipping

I don't want to be a pest, but I want to be sure the bluetooth clipping problem stay on the radar screen. I bought a nice new Plantronics 855 stereo headset so that I could play music, podcasts and streaming radio. But, the clipping makes it almost too frustrating to be usable.

Dude, can you please turn the light of your considerable talents and genius onto this issue? I'm sure there are others out there, besides myself, who will really appreciate it.

Thanks for all you have done. And, thanks in advance for the solution I am sure you will come up with.
[G1 Android Development] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
!!! Looks like the last boot loop/ a2sd problem was forever ago. Guess I'm not needed around these parts anymore(this is why I made the new a2sd method)
[G1 Android Development] JAWheat411:
Can't say that lol. I am sure you have something to offer.:p
[G1 Android Development] MontAlbert:
for some reason i had 1.1 on my phone and it crashed this morning for no apparent reasobn and went into boot loop. Totally reformatted entire sd card using gparted (bugger windows for anything to do with formatting this phone from now on)...... made new ext2 partition (slightly bigger this time :D )......

installed etc.... seems to be running great..... had to run appSTOSD2 as i didn;t read instructions first and hadnt made the app and app-private folders.... made them, ran the app and so far so good. have around 100apps on now and still 35mb free. Not gonna tempt fate and move any caches or anything just yet......

no boot loops etc......

my question is does moving caches and dalvik cache work with this build the way it is setup?
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
Soooooo.

Dude here, reporting from greyhound-1.

I have been on 1.1a for 2 days.

App, app-private and dalvik-cache on sd card. Testing /data/data tomorrow...

Note: I used and will always use gparted to format my sd card. I think that may attribute a few things to my luck.

When reporting issues on apps2sd, make sure you mention how you partitioned your card.

Pandora's box = open. Marcus is the man.
[G1 Android Development] parmenti:
I flashed 1.1a and my background issue still has not been resolved. It definitely took because the internal memory storage changed. Has anyone else gotten this to work?
[G1 Android Development] Ooglez:
I

think

I moved dalvik-cache to SD, moved the contents of /system/intmem/dalvik-cache to /system/sd/dalvik-cache.

When I did this with data, however, none of my "data" was saved. It was all still there in /data/data and in /system/sd/data, but none of it was used by, for example, launcher.. Whaaat?

Card partitioned using sdsplit script posted in this forum

EDIT: Ouch, even after moving the data back to /system/intmem/data, I still have no preferences saved.. I get to start over :-/
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
I used a live CD (well flashdrive) of gparted in order to partition my SD card.

500MB for the ext2 partition and the rest of the 8gig card is for the fat32 partition.

I have everything on my SDcard:

data

dalvik-cache

app

app-private

As a result, I have 69 mb free.

The reason I don't have 72 free is that no matter what I do, the 3MB file system@framework@core.jar@classes.dex will not more to the sd card. I tried copying it into /system/sd/dalvik-cache from /system/intmem/dalvik-cache and after a reboot its back in the internal memory.

I have no idea what causes it to move back. Its not a big deal because I have more than enough space left on the device, I'm just curious.

I just converted to the dude 1.1 from haykuro 1.5hr3. I was stuck in a boot loop so i backed up my apps and simply wiped.

I've been stable as ever on this build and this new appstosd method makes wifi-tether work without copying it back to internal memory.

I tried to be as explicit as possible and if you have any questions about my setup feel free to ask. Thanks for everything dude!

EDIT: I too still have the background issue. It works after a reboot. Again, not a big deal for me because I don't change my background often at all.
[G1 Android Development] beagz:
same problem here. No background change.
[G1 Android Development] parmenti:
yeah, I just tried 1.1a Full also, just to check.. backgrounds still don't change.
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
Have you guys tried wiping before you say that it doesn't work?

Just a suggestion....I haven't wiped but, my wallpaper changes flawlessly.
[G1 Android Development] wyseman76:
Running 1.1 on 2 phones for at least 24 hours with no issues aside from the wallpaper issue and anetshare not working. I also have the ported aero theme on one and no problems there either.

All partitioning was done with gparted, actually i use my Ubuntu laptop to do anything with mine or any family/friends phones. I just figure if you going to get dirty with a Linux based Phone you should use a Linux OS or else risk unwanted OS miscommunication.

Thanx again Dude, Marcus, and everyone else who has contributed.
[G1 Android Development] bettasplash:
Thats strange my backgound is changing for me on 1.1a
[G1 Android Development] beagz:
was hoping not to but I guess I will. Since some report that it works.
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
Yes I have wiped. On a side note (it may be related, not sure) the internal system memory doesn't seem to update without a restart either. Its possible that there is something wrong with the polling of the settings in this build where it doesn't poll for the current wallpaper OR the internal system memory.

Maybe it has something to do with the new Apps2SD? Are those of you who have wallpaper changing correctly running apps to SD?
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
Hmmm I can change wallpapers without any issues.

You guys with wallpaper issues. Is the /data/data on sd?
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
Oh crap, I think I know what it might be. More info tomorrow.

If you can't change wallpaper on 1.1a

adb shell ls -l /system/intmem/
adb shell ls -l /data/

Tell me the output of both
[G1 Android Development] curveconcepts:
I posted the screenshot of the command prompt..

http://tinypic.com/r/ac7qli/5
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
Yes I have /data/data on my SD card

adb shell ls -l /system/intmem

adb shell ls -l /data
[G1 Android Development] beagz:
system misc misc

shell shell local

system system data

system system app-private

system system app

root root property

system system dalvik-cache

system system anr

both commands = same output.

System UIds Inconsistent

How come after doing a full wipe I get the "System UIDs Inconsistent" message? I didn't get this earlier when I simply flashed 1.1a - any thoughts? and what should I do about this?
[G1 Android Development] Manacit:
Just wanted to throw out another big thanks to the dude, moved back from JF 1.5 to this, it seems like you're updating a lot more frequently, and I like having PDF reader and the english HTC keyboard :)
[G1 Android Development] jj71787:
i had the new build and had to wipe my phone because it was bootlooping and now it wont let me set a picture as my background it let me do it before
[G1 Android Development] atlmatt:
backup your apps to SD

Reformat your Ext2 partition

wipe

update

push

Did you happen to search before posting???

I did not think so...
[G1 Android Development] circa85:
Has the speed gotten any better? I tried this back before adp1.5 was released and it was way slower then 5.0G, so I stuck with that and moved to adp1.5H, but I'd really like key.apk and the pdfreader back
[G1 Android Development] jayb222:
It's faster now. I see no difference in speed with the other 1.5 builds. So flash away!:D
[G1 Android Development] jj71787:
I wasnt able to change the wallpaper until i rebooted my phone just wanted to let you guys know in case anyone was wondering
[G1 Android Development] parmenti:
wallpaper works now.. the only thing I did differently was NOT install setCPU (the overclock app on the market). Is it really possible this is causing the problem? and if so, why might you think? Can everyone that it's not working for confirm that they have setCPU installed.. and vice versa? Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] jj71787:
i didnt have it installed
[G1 Android Development] MontAlbert:
seeing the dude had moved dalvik to sd i did the same thing.... also moved a few caches-browser, steel, tunewiki, etc

just had a crash and now boot loop!! bugger..... sd card was formatted this morning using gparted...... bugger!! just had it running and looking how i wanted it......
[G1 Android Development] blahzay_blah:
any1 having browser problems over wifi????

i can download apps over wifi but when i try surfin the web i doesnt work.

idk if its my router or not but i used to be able t surf with ease.

i am using version 1.1
[G1 Android Development] MontAlbert:
boot loop again for no good reason..... will just reflash and once again reformat card when i get home from work..... this time i was just restarting it to make it change wallpaper..... never started again!!! bugger.......
[G1 Android Development] jayb222:
I'm having no problems atm. Other than wallpaper change everything is fine and fast. Apps and dalvik cache on sd. I'm on 1.0 right now and applied the aero theme. I'll wait it out a little, maybe 1.2, before I update again since everything is fine. If I run into another problem I'll let you know dude!
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
I knew I opened pandora's box.

The Dude's 10 rules to experimenting with your phone.

Rule #1 Backup before making a major change.

Rule #2 I moving anything that says cache. Don't move it....remove it. Just link a fresh empty directory and let said cache rebuild. Don't remove the folder, just clear its contents from within the directory. (/data/data is not a cache ;) )

Rule #3 ONE CHANGE AT A TIME! I can't stress this enough. How are you going to realize what looped your phone. Plus this is the easiest way to undo what you just did w/o "wiping"

Rule #4 ADB IS YOUR FRIEND. With adb and fastboot I can make a phone dance. Looped, not looped, almost anything you can do on your phone, you can undo from adb. I'm going to put out an adb guide, cause, well, it's awesome

Rule #5 See Rule #1

Rule #6 Get a linux virtual machine...learn some basic command line linux. Your phone is an arm powered computer with a synaptics touchscreen, a full qwerty keyboard, running on a linux 2.26.7 ARM kernel. You should learn what that means if you ever really know your phone.

Rule #7 Don't make major changes from your phone. See #4 This just invites your phone to crash because the terminal app you are using is writing to the folder you just moved/removed/modified.

Rule #8 Have an idea what you're about to do. I'm not saying inherently know android...but at least know the risk involved and how to undo it.

Rule #9 Don't be afraid to ask questions, but be afraid to ask poor questions. You should always give as much information as possible when necessary. If you're not sure what information to give, you probably need to search some more and see how other people are doing it. (the long posts, not the 7 word sentences)

Rule #10 http://www.google.com When I say search...don't say XDA's search doesn't work...no it doesn't, but every single post on every single board is indexed on google.com. Hint: Use site:xdaforums.com

There you go. My gift to you. Way off topic, but way essential. I'm not sayin any of you are doing it wrong. I'm just saying, here's how I got from total noob on 11/22/2008 to releasing roms in april 2009. Granted, I've been using computers for a long long time, and playing with phones for the better part of the last 10 years whether it was windows, palm, linux, symbian, and now android.

[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
Won't be a problem next version.

There's more than one place in the rom that some cleaning needs done.
[G1 Android Development] bassbox:
Well, maybe it's cuz of the AERO theme I use with your 1.0 but

my standby screen (when screen is black, hit menu once) always reads "Please connect charger" (well mine says it in german ;) ) , even after reboot .. i got 80% left, and it started directly after i unplugged it when it was 100% for some time ..
[G1 Android Development] beagz:
yes, that is from the new lock screen stuff. I will see if I can get it fixed. From the theme. NOT caused by the build
[G1 Android Development] MontAlbert:
i must say... my apologies to manup- at first i didnt like the theme but it has really grown on me - i love it now! porting it over to dxtop so i can use it 24/7!

Default Theme with Original Launcher

Everything is working perfectly now. Reformating ext2 before full wipe did the trick. I also redid a2sd with new files.

Below is a link to the Default Theme with the Original Launcher (4 columns on app sled & original 3 home screens). It's zipped signed and ready to go. Might be nice if someone knew how to keep the 4 rows on sled but also have the 5 home screens. Anyone know which file in launcher.apk is handling the 5 home screens?

Rotation cell

Hi all,

i have a question :

why is not possible rotate the screen when you rotate the phone in desktop/panel with cupcake 1.5 ?

Bye
[G1 Android Development] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Not absolutely sure but I believe there is an expire time in the browser cache since I've never actually heard of anyone running out of space after moving just apps to the sdcard.
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
Btw...Why is it even problematic when moving data and dalvik to the sd? What exactly is causing the problems?

Because even with the uniofs, we don't really have a true extended memory. We're still limited to the internal memory.
[G1 Android Development] bassbox:
dalvik works fine for me...

create empty dalvik-cache folder and you should be fine.
[G1 Android Development] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
I haven't seen any problems with dalvik-cache, that should be fine. The normal cache on the other hand... eventually it accumulates "Stale NFS file handles" which render specific files in the /system/sd/data unusable and, worse yet, unremovable. Said problem also makes the phone boot loop until the affected files are no longer there(pretty much have to do a mv on the whole damn directory or reformat the sd card)
