My experience so far is that pretty much everything works "as advertised" (Market, phone, etc.) except:

- video recorder often crashes and when it doesn't, it records a really crappy quality video (mine is set to the highest);

- GPS does not seem to work;

- superuser looks like it's working but in reality it inhibits root-enabled apps from working, thus I could not test wifi tether;

- I didn't see two VKs as stated in first post;

Over all this build still needs a good polish before it can be used on a day-to-day basis.

On the side note my WiFi is not working with this build either :( Since it's not working with Haykuro's 5.0.2Hr3 can it be that it's messed-up on my end? If so, how could I test it / see some logs?
[G1 Android Development] metasage:
The most important issue for me in haykuro's builds was the extra sensitive mic picking up background noises. It's hard to hold a conversation on G or H.

Dude,

is there any way to fix this? several people have noticed this but someone has yet to respond :confused:

Here is the issue on Haykuro's page:

[G1 Android Development] manup456:
This is bad a$$ great work bro. ;)
[G1 Android Development] hussein.j:
Ah, you're a full time ROM Chef at the moment!

I'm going to lurk here for a little while until you get a few little loose ends tied up and happy for a solid 1.0 and you'll get a few bucks from me for sure. Good luck finding a job and all that.

Respect - Hussein, UK
[G1 Android Development] TemporalShadows:
Actually, I was going to ask if this works OK in the new build. That's the #1 thing preventing me from moving from JF's RC33 to these newer builds. I was going to test it but I don't have time to flash it this afternoon. I was trying to figure out how the mic sensitivity is determined, but haven't had much success yet. My first guess is that it's determined by the values in "AudioPara4.csv", but replacing it with the JF RC33 version had no effect that I could see. In Windows Mobile it controls speaker volume and other volume related settings, so I figured since it was present it might be worth noting/tweaking, but no luck so far. Anyone else got any ideas?

As for everyone asking about exchange sync - when I used it on haykuro's H build, my notifications worked perfectly. You can also try the Moxier Mail pre-release though, it works just as well, and it's free for now. Just until the built-in exchange gets figured out.

I'd love to help with development, but work keeps me so busy that I haven't been able to get started. :(
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
my bad about the pdf viewer. That's getting fixed right.......now

Thanks guys for all the kind words and such. Admittedly I didn't spend a lot of time testing this one, so I will be trying to get these easy ones worked out asap.

I have no idea how the mic performs...nor would I know where to start with making it better.

Ok...pffffff..i'll be back in a bit. gonna try and get .6 ready

I'm thinking about making 2 versions, wipe and no wipe. But if you have looping issues, i'm gonna refer you straight to the wipe edition.

Since I got all this room I want to include some JFisims into it. That's gonna be closer to 1.0
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
Well, I think I found something I don't like, we're back to the "x mins ago" call log. I'm thinking that probably wouldnt be too difficult to change over to the one from Haykuro's G build....

EDIT: Please make the non-wipe version, I'm wanting to stick around with this one and would like to not have to wipe, but then again i guess i could just fastboot the data.img backup....
[G1 Android Development] d_khosa12:
Is this build apps to sd or does it have a non apps to sd version?
[G1 Android Development] i9zero:
GPS and Wireless Location doesn't seem to work.
[G1 Android Development] question.com:
why is the volume so low? you cant even hear the phone ringtone barely. everything else seems pretty good so far
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
My ringtones are just as loud as they were when I was on Haykuro's build.
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
I am also experiencing this. Neither work for me.
[G1 Android Development] ei8htohms:
how do you install that font?

Can you expand on that a little? Where is this font and how did you install it? I've just gotten into the font swapping thing and would love to learn more. Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] skiptomylou11:
Everything seems good so far. The market is working flawlessly; I downloaded all my applications in 5 minutes. Great job on that.

I also like how the notification tab looks different than the other builds. Everything else I've tried seems to work... the browser seems to have kept its speed from haykuro's build, and the apps work well.

Only thing that I didn't really like is the transition to landscape. All it does is dim in and out then switch to landscape. I guess it's not that big a deal, but one of the biggest eye candy from the G build was the fade in fade out transition. Personally I loved it. But I think I can do without as long as everything else work.

Very stable and very few bugs. Looking forward to the upcoming changes.

Great job!
[G1 Android Development] question.com:
i didnt do anything different. all i did was wipe the h build, an flash this version. when i went to set my ringtone, the volume is horribly low. will reflash again, when the new version is uploaded.
[G1 Android Development] c-tang:
I dont know why but my ringtones dont seem 1/5 as loud huge difference I turned up the vol but still super quiet..... I flashed again the even changed up roms still quiet. ANY Ideas
[G1 Android Development] Serpico1979:
hi,

sorry...............i slap myself;)

I promise that will find all in the right thread.

bye
[G1 Android Development] KidJethro:
Haha!

Same! I have a tab open to the first page in this thread, and one to the last. F5, F5, F5, F5!
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
Uploading now. Had to fix a stupid copy protected app market bug that snuck back in and slapped me on the butt.

I feel like I rushed these out w/o a lot of deep testing, but you guys tend to find the bugs.

Crush em. I will release .91 tonight if something creeps up.

Open Overclocker may get removed my .91 if some things about it I don't like don't get fixed or the complaints are high.

su/Superuser seems spotty. Can you guys confirm it works for you?

You'll probably know before I do when the uploads are done ;) But I'll update the main post when they are and add a link to the radio.
[G1 Android Development] KidJethro:
Niiice!

Keep it up brother. :cool:

.09 Appstosd is up!

http://code.google.com/p/thedudescupcake/downloads/list

Flashing now...
[G1 Android Development] escosuave:
Thanks for your work. Quick question, i'm trying to download the radio from your page however the download stops at 4.15MB everytime (instead of 8..) when I try to open the archive I get an error, i believe you may have a bad file.
[G1 Android Development] testing567:
Installing from sdcard...

Press Home+Back to reboot

Well that was anti-climatic. lol Re-downloading now...

(non apps to sd version by the way)
[G1 Android Development] KidJethro:
Super user seems to work ok. Open overclocker works. Screenshot works. SU in terminal emulator works. Advanced task manager works.

However I've seen this force close error about 20 times so far-

"The application TouchInput (process com.htc.android.htcime) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."

It won't stop popping up lol, no matter how many times I hit the force close button. :eek:

Disabled touch input in settings and it stopped. lol
[G1 Android Development] inportb:
Yep... standard version is out too =p

Thanks dude.
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
If you have apps2S.D version of the 9 build and there are paid protected or free protected apps installed they will need to be un-installed then reinstalled.
[G1 Android Development] southsko:
same thing over here
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
Ok guys...tell me what I missed ;)

I'll be on and off all day. Very busy helping a special someone thru her hell week of 3 papers, 3 finals and 2 concerts :D This week I'm also trying to release a new fan site for umphrey's mcgee, helping a friend on updating her ecommerce website and trying to find a real job, so go easy on me if I go offline for a bit.

</personalife>

If XDA is ever down this site won't be http://code.google.com/p/thedudescupcake/

I'm going to make a google group for the builds as well. The link will show up on the Google Code site + here once it is ready.

Widgets don't work with custom home screens till the dev's update their applications. I expect a lot of updated apps over the next week or so from Devs
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
UH OH. Let me retest that non apps2sd link.
[G1 Android Development] testing567:
I just tried to open the zip file on my PC and winrar can't read the file. It's definatly a bad file.:(

*shakes fist at google code and reuploads*

I got serious egg on my face...brb.
[G1 Android Development] testing567:
Quick question while you fix the download. You said you embedded some 3rd party apps into this build. What will happen if I already have one of those apps? Should I uninstall them before updating?
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
actually I meant to mention this.

If you have the weather widget, open overclocker, teeter installed in data you can do one of two things

1. remove the file manually from data

2. uninstall through the menu

3. remove the system file and tell me it isn't necessary ;)

4. Do nothing, android always ignores the 'second instance', but this is the least stable method

I will support any apps I put in (when it comes to new versions) and release updates as the devs release them.

When I get around to it I will also make a list of added apk's and some more explanations of what's 'third party'

I'm looking to make this build more like the cooked roms that I used of my Windows Mobile days. Not just default. Custom themes, prebuilt apps. Customized apps (once I start learning how to modify the google source apps more in depth). By 1.0 I'm going to introduce a 'not so stable' version for you crazies that wanna run bleeding edge. This will have patches from the source that aren't necessarily merged, but look pretty cool (for example I have a version of Camera.apk that has video encoding options for different formats etc.)

I'll also make a 'lite' version that has all the 3rd party stuff ripped out. So you can add whatever you like.

I'm CONSIDERING multitouch for the crazy build as well. We'll see once things settle in and I'm back in Chicago.

So we'll have

Dude 1.0 reg

Dude 1.0 reg A2SD

Dude 1.0 lite

Dude 1.0 lite A2SD

And MAYBE

Dude 1.0 Bloody Ed.

Dude 1.0 Bloody Ed. A2SD

Anyone confused yet?

If you're confused you should see my /home/dude/android folder....wow.
[G1 Android Development] KidJethro:
I'm sorry to post a somewhat off topic question...

I had PDF viewer installed. Tried to open a pdf file and it said "This application can only be used on htc devices"? I could see the file being opened in the back ground, then it went away when I clicked ok. Now when I try to open a pdf it says "file type pdf not found"?
[G1 Android Development] timal:
Hi TheDudeOfLife first thank you for all the hard work. Does your build have the little microphone next to the google magnifying glass for voice search ?
[G1 Android Development] KidJethro:
Voice search works, just tested. :)
[G1 Android Development] timal:
Thanks KidJethro did you access this from the little microphone or through an app. ? I run the Haykuro 5.0.2Hr5-A2SD build, but I don't have this function.
[G1 Android Development] inportb:
That sounds pretty awesome. Is it possible for your apps2sd script to

1. check to see if the sd has an ext2 volume and skip mount if not

2. check to see if the volume has a special file that signals for apps2sd and unmount if not

3. otherwise, enable apps2sd

This way you could avoid repeating work and uploading two versions.
[G1 Android Development] KidJethro:
Yes I did. The microphone icon is there on the Search window. :)
[G1 Android Development] borodin1:
You've got my vote on this.... I did not realize how much I liked it till it was gone.

Great job Dude
[G1 Android Development] beagz:
Downloaded and testing now. So far this is a nice improvement. I like the voice search and the predictive/corrective text. Contacts live folders seem to be missing pictures though.

Going to do more testing.
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
Uh oh, I bet I know what that is.

Looks like .91 is comin tonight after all once I round up all these bugs. That's what I get for trying to rush a release out. won't happen again.

Thanks early adopters for pointing this stuff out.

Side note - do not go from an apps2sd version to non apps2sd (riiight, like you would) w/o a wipe. Panic > Anger > Face > Palm > fix by wipe

Also if you are starting fresh and Open Overclocker shows up as a black screen

adb remount
adb shell rm /system/app/OpenOverclocker.apk

Maybe once Marcus fixes some things I'll put it in for 1.0 but it's coming out tonight.
[G1 Android Development] Serpico1979:
what means? Bathroom Break?

:confused:hehehhe

bye
[G1 Android Development] question.com:
Apps2sd is working fine for me. The first boot took a while cause the overclocker app was trying to start up and superuser wasn't booting up fast enough. Ill keep playing with it till .91 is released. Keep up the good work dude.
[G1 Android Development] testing567:
New non apps to sd file unzipped correctly this time.:D

Uploading to phone now...

Update: It worked, thanks. :)
[G1 Android Development] KidJethro:
LOL!

[G1 Android Development] beagz:
Thanks again for your hard work.

Is there some reason that pictures no longer appear in the contacts live folder?
[G1 Android Development] chicojd:
Just out of curiosity, how many other folks on here think that DudeOfLife is really Jesus Freke?! I think they are one in the same... too much genius...
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
Please, you flatter me.

I am definitely not JF. Positive on that one.

Settings > about > contributors ;)
[G1 Android Development] Nikeem24:
Lol count me in.
[G1 Android Development] Gimpeh:
Dude, Where will your builds go from now. I saw that your interested in implementing multi touch. Will you be implementing any other features from the official 1.5 update?

The only thing the official 1.5 build has on .9 is performance increase.
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
Yeah I haven't loaded stock ADP1.5 yet but I plan on it so I can see these 'performance increases' you speak of.
[G1 Android Development] Gimpeh:
I too have yet to try it. But based on the impressions I've seen yeah it sounds like thats all there is. Which is still nice.
[G1 Android Development] Nikeem24:
Hey dude no offense but I'm thinking about switching to your .09I when it come out but I just wanna know the pros to it coming from ADP1.5Hr1
[G1 Android Development] timal:
Hi Dude can I pick your brain. I was on 5.0.2Hr5-A2SD and flashed your rom. I was missing voice search. With your rom I got it , some apps didn't work and I flashed back to 5.0.2Hr5-A2SD. Now I still have no voice dial. Any ideas ?
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
And what other 'features of adp1.5 are you looking for???'

Voice stuff + working gtalk wasn't enough ;)

To be honest, as I was building this I noticed A LOT of the ADP1.5 is based on the same code as my build. They are nearly alike, exept where the ADP1.5 build will stop there. I will continue to update the source and add features as they hit the source tree. Now if only the googles will open up the google apps source by 2.0.
[G1 Android Development] g2crx:
idk if its me or what,but i dl the radio code on page1 but it doesnt seem to work.i get a error when i alt s.
[G1 Android Development] dbarrett480:
Getting force closes on teeter with apps2sd. Teeter is like my crack I MUST HAVE IT! LOL
[G1 Android Development] circa85:
Does anyone know if the HTC key.apk will install on 0.9? I'm currently on 1.5H and it crashes if I try to use it
[G1 Android Development] wendee:
Trying to flash from .8 to .9 but for some reason cant get the update to work

i get a error Cant open/sdcard/update.zip no such file or directory

Installation aborted

any ideas> or am doing spmething wrong?
[G1 Android Development] g2crx:
same here force closes when i try to open it
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
Me too, here's how we can find out.

Step 1. Backup.

Step 2. Load Haykuro's build.

Step 3. Test extensively

Step 4. Backup

Step 5. Load my build.

Step 6. Test Extensively

Step 7. Backup.

Step 8. Report back to us.

Step 9. Restore backup of your favorite.

I honestly wish I had time to do this, but with my builds I no longer have time to load every build out there. It is only going to get harder as more community builds start up. I can only hope to differentiate myself by doing what makes me happy. Tweaking my phone and sharing the results.

You guys decide which is better. I have mad respect for Haykuro and would never be one to judge his work vs mine. That's honestly for you guys to determine. It's all a matter of opinion anyway. I'm sure 2-3 comparison threads will pop up soon enough.

PS I am curious if you can come over from Haykuro's build to mine w/o a wipe now that his is based on ADP 1.5
[G1 Android Development] pr0cl1v1ty:
my speaker on 0.8 and 0.9 is so low i cant find the posts that i remember reading about can anyone point me to a fix? thanks!!!
[G1 Android Development] g2crx:
yepp same problem here i tryed to install it also
[G1 Android Development] geemboomba:
Voice search works great but voice dialer just freezes up every time. Anyone else notice this?
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
I came over from Haykuros ADP1.5 without a wipe and it worked wonderfully!
[G1 Android Development] dbarrett480:
Voice dialer works for me. Maybe you need to wipe?
[G1 Android Development] wendee:
@brianb7590

any ideas why i can seem to flash to .9?

i get a error message saying theres no such file on the sd card

any clue?

thanks
[G1 Android Development] doubleokneegro:
not so much ALT + L, but rather rename the file to update.zip and ALT + S... it should load..

coming from RC33, i flashed the radio first, verified i had the correct radio by going to settings..

then upgraded to v.8 with no problems just as you flash a theme.

in the process of upgrading to v.9 as we speak
[G1 Android Development] Nikeem24:
You have to do a wipe I had the same problems.
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
Are you coming from Haykuro's build?

I say you try to redownload .9 and try to do the flash as many people were having may problems with the file earlier.
[G1 Android Development] Nikeem24:
Well thx for that great response, and I will definitely try going from Haykuros to yours with no wipe and see if it works. I will give you the results when I do it.
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
@wendee double check the file is really update.zip Sounds like your file downloaded incorrectly or you didn't eject safely.
[G1 Android Development] wendee:
yes i had haykuro builds and had .8 everythin works imean i still have .8 nothing wrong but when trying to falsh to .9 get the error message
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
No i don't think so the keyboard is perfect with no more bugs because its from ADP1 the HTC keyboard is still buggy. This is based of the G build not the H there are a few H builds out there for you. Voicedialer is fine and if your coming from a H build you should know by now you need to wipe and if you dont STOP! now and get a razor or a startak moto phone and start modding from day one lol....
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
This build is not like 8 it ended with signed before and now it ends with .zip check the name of the file on your S.D.
[G1 Android Development] wendee:
yes am redownloading it again and tryin againg hope it works now

thanks for the heads up
[G1 Android Development] question.com:
hmm no ringtones. i really need to keep my fav tones on my sd card. i was wondering why i wasnt hearing email notifications
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
That's to save space, I figured everyone had done that by now. I'll upload a resources.zip tonight with all the google/htc ringtones/wallpapers.
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
@Dude

I came from Haykuro's ADP1.5 build without a wipe and am having no problems. Just a heads up!:cool:
[G1 Android Development] airsonic:
So If I'm on JF right now all I need to do is rename the system image zip to update.zip and install like any other build? Cause I'm just confused what to do with the radio image.
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
Yes, but make sure that you wipe and you can install the radio if you want.
[G1 Android Development] question.com:
thanks. i have the htc resource file, but i prefer the google one. thanks in advance
[G1 Android Development] airsonic:
What would be the best choice for radio? The one in this thread or the official one? Also do I just install the radio with the update.zip method after installing the update itself?
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
The one from this thread is a mirror of the official one from HTC.
[G1 Android Development] wendee:
ok so no luck n now i wipe and am back on .8 and have to install all my apps back

much i download the radio also or not really?
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
The one in this thread is an official one, it is the official ADP radio.
[G1 Android Development] airsonic:
Okay. So I just install it after I install the update by renaming it to update.zip?
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
You don't have to download the radio if you don't want to.

So the .9 didn't work for you?
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
Yes, thats exactly what you would do.
[G1 Android Development] dbarrett480:
Will people please search?!?! We are going to have another 900 page thread with nothing but instructions on how to install a rom update. If you aren't 100% sure how to install one, then you shouldn't be doing it anyway.
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
Yeah, but they don't search...and you doing this is not making this thread any shorter...if you don't want to answer the question than just leave it alone.
[G1 Android Development] yeticomes:
Hello,

I am running The Dudes 0.8apps2SD and installed the HTC VK - it works great for me and I like it much more than the G-Build VK.

Does it work also with 0.9?
[G1 Android Development] wendee:
nope it didnt work for me :confused:
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
You can use it with the .9 build, as far as I know, but you will have to reinstall it if you already have it installed.
[G1 Android Development] dbarrett480:
You are exactly right, I am not making the thread any shorter, however one of the reasons that developers stop developing roms on this site is because they have to deal with meaningless questions that could have been solved if someone would have taken the initiative to find the answers. I don't know about you, but I don't want thedude to stop developing roms....just sayin.
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
I just scroll past em and I suggest you do to. Let the members help each other. When 1.0 comes out I'm starting a new thread and requesting this one get locked anyway.
[G1 Android Development] yeticomes:
Cool, thank you very much! Great support & work here :-)
