@haykuro

i think you should spend less time on the g build because now we have Dude working on googles official dream build

so if u could spend more time on H and implementing stuff from both of ur builds into one build that would make everyone happy

thanks for all ur work
[G1 Android Development] exjibition:
could you send me the sound files? idk where they are. been searching everywhere.
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
I just ran into the sound level bug, I was working fine prior to .6.
[G1 Android Development] Yatyas:
You can pull them out of Haykuro's G build under system--media--audio.
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
Do you have profiles app?

That's been causing issues for sure.

It looks like my apps are working from SD just fine.

I just enabled it the same way I did in haykuro's build. Still rebuilding dex files but seems happy.
[G1 Android Development] start_developing:
It would be nice if haykuro and Dude would work together. This would avoid duplicated work all the time. It would be awesome if Dude or haykuro could say something about it.

PS: You both do a great job.
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
Nope this is with a fresh install of the regular version, couldnt get the apps2sd working..
[G1 Android Development] Yatyas:
Try calling your phone. That has fixed the issue for some people.
[G1 Android Development] question.com:
i took out my sd for a while when it happened to me on the prior build. then it started to work fine
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
Thanks for the suggestions but since I'm about to crash and I need a loud alarm in the morning I just flash back to the prior build and will try see if it starts working later..

Thanks again Dude!
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
This is about to get interesting...
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
Who says we aren't?

You guys can be kinda ravenous sometimes. I picked this up to allow him to focus on H builds. He's more interested in those anyway, and I'm more interested in making the dream open source builds working.

I'm trying not to waste his time, so I'm fixing what I can till I get to some things he may be able to help me in. The boot.img was allowed to be bundled in with his gracious permission, giving us the working apps2sd etc.

This isn't a competition. People have different tastes. That's why this community and platform are great because I can go make this build, haykuro can make his build and everyone wins.

Now if google would just open source the stupid closed source apps, all of our lives would get easier....they promise soon. But after cupcake is released so for now we experiment, we finagle, we hack. The ease at which I was able to incorporate it this week vs last week shows me that they are definitely working towards that end.

Be patient with the fixes, I'm learning as well as you guys are.

I will definitely see this project through. When I say it is 1.0 I want it to be relatively bug free, but for that to happen, I know I have a few hurdles to cross. Don't expect a build a day, every day....luckily I'm on a roll and have free time. I won't forget XDA and you guys can bet that as long as I have a G1, I'll want to make it better, thus making yours better.

I appreciate your input, I'll get the google code site updated when I'm not so busy doing build stuff. That way you guys can organize issues up there. For now I'll keep the first post updated with my changes and what I hope to work on that day/next day. None of these are promises, they are estimates, communication with you guys so you know what's up. Please read it before loading/posting. It helps us all if this thread isn't cluttered.

Finally, don't worry about 'can this get a sticky'. If I had a working stable build it'd be one thing, but we're testing here...we don't need sticky builds for every 'beta cupcake/donut/bagel' out there. We just need to use the bookmark thread feature :D

Enjoy.
[G1 Android Development] Tourist_007:
Alarm works but I also have the sound problems being waaaay too low. That's ALL sounds... ringtones, notifications, key click, songs etc. Tried Volume control app, calling my phone, bluetooth etc. Any ideas? Also has anyone checked GPS? Wifi works great but Tether needs root.

Well, I should have followed my usual practices of reading first and then posting. Sorry, I forgot to read post #1. (I promise it won't happen again)
[G1 Android Development] start_developing:
Thank you for your response. Well it just wasn't clear from the statements you both did. :) But it is awesome to hear that you are working together and it is awesome to hear that you plan to open up a Google code page in the future.

Take your time for all of that and thanks for all your effort.
[G1 Android Development] TemporalShadows:
I wish we had the source to the HTC build, I'd love to get Exchange Sync working in the Google builds. I was playing with it tonight to see if I could make it work, but I keep getting crashes because SyncConfig.isEASEnabled isn't a valid method...thing is, I'm not sure which app/library/etc provides this method to add it.

I installed Mail.apk, replaced Contacts.apk, made sure to copy over libhtcMail_jni.so (does this need to be registered somehow? I wouldn't think so), and even installed the PC Sync apk thinking it might be related, but all of it crashes because of the missing sync config method. Any ideas what else needs to be added?

Also, I can confirm that the "microphone too sensitive" problem still exists. I can't use these builds daily until that is fixed...but I'm not having much luck figuring that out yet, either. I still wonder if modifying AudioPara4.csv would make it work...but simply transferring the file from an older build has no effect. It might have an effect for those of you who are having volume issues though, as it supposedly controls audio levels.
[G1 Android Development] ISprayCandy:
This is very nice and runs completely smooth on my phone, only thing it lacks is root and notification ringers. Very nice job..
[G1 Android Development] W0WA:
how can i overvlock the cpu??
[G1 Android Development] MontAlbert:
cool- its like drive-thru upgrades.....would you like fries with that? :D
[G1 Android Development] MontAlbert:
open overclocker : check out apps forum : except i am having issues getting this working on 0.94.... mustn't pay well with the new superuser.... like gscript had to be changed....
[G1 Android Development] beagz:
Life is good. Nothing like wonderful builds and nice themes like Moondust and Prodigal Sun (yes I got em both ported and ready :) )

now I just need a boot screen for moon :cool:
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
Theres a few tools for that. Open Overclocker and SetCPU. Do a search for them.
[G1 Android Development] Gimpeh:
Where will the dalvik cache be? Will it too be moved/remain on the sdcard?
[G1 Android Development] graphreak:
If I remember correctly from earlier posts, TheDude might be moving it under the Data folder on SD.
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
I don't move the dalvik-cache. That's your perogative.

@beagz - does manup know you're chopping up his themes? He probably won't be a fan of that.
[G1 Android Development] froggg:
update

when are we going to get the drop. i can hardly wait, (i have class at 4)
[G1 Android Development] graphreak:
Oops! wasn't reading the thread close enough as I thought.

So, new A2SD -if implemented in update- would move Apps only?

Would there be an option provided for users to move the dalvik-cache if they want to?

OR do they need to use one of the other existing methods?

Tks.
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
The new one you just copy the dalvik cache over using Marcus' app or I'll work on the commands to do it manually. Anything you could do with ln -s would now be automagically linked/merged

It's like /system/sd and /data are the same folder to you.

I go to /system/sd and see

app

app-private

dalvik-cache

i go to data and it is all the same folder names, only the contents from /system/sd are merged with your /data. It's magic, if you don't get just understand it works.

YOU STILL HAVE TO COPY THE APPS/CACHE if you haven't before. Otherwise, **** just works.

You'd also have to recopy dalvik cache after my update if you REALLY want it on the sd card. I'll put commands in the first post upon release and link to marcus app (which makes it super freaking easy)
[G1 Android Development] beagz:
That's why I did not post links. Just made the statement that I am ready and eager to use the next build. So when you gonna post it? Any edits to framework or layout apks?
[G1 Android Development] beagz:
BTW thanks again for all your hard work. I really like what you have done.
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
I'm gonna post it when I feel like it is ready....like I said....today. I'm waiting on people to thumbs up the testing.

no framework changes, wtf is a layout apk, and I replaced launcher.
[G1 Android Development] borodin1:
Dude

Do you have a tenative date for 1.0? I'm still on .93 and it's rock solid for me so I probably wont touch it till 1.0 comes out.

Great job as always!!!!
[G1 Android Development] beagz:
Sorry, at work and got the name wrong. Take your time. No rush. Better to get it right than early.
[G1 Android Development] MetalMessiah78:
Calendar Not Updating

I checked the calendar this morning before doing a power cycle. I can confirm, it does not update. Still a lot nicer then the other one, and I always power cycle my phone at least once a day, so not a problem for me.
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
1.0 before june is all I can say. It's more reliant upon the default theme than anything I'm doing. I'm just working out the last of 'what i wanted to see in my build' before dropping in manups custom default theme and wrapping a pretty 1.0 bow on it.

.95 is gonna be better than .93, so wait if you want, but I wouldn't.

Edit, so I still wanted more real estate on the Workspace (dekstops, homescreens whatever) Decided to drop 5 screens instead of 3.

Now it goes

Left, Left, Center, RIght Right. Home gets you to the center screen.

hope you guys are ok with that.
[G1 Android Development] bassbox:
Well but if you use your calendar as a timetable as i do

it's very usefull if it autoupdate xD
[G1 Android Development] borodin1:
Why... why are you doing this to me???? My wife is going to kill me if I devote anymore time to my phone, but now, with 5 screens in .95 I just HAVE to have it. Now I'll have to get up couple of hours before work and flash it!!!!

Quick question on that subject, how is this going to affect the wallpaper?
[G1 Android Development] bassbox:
Same wallpaper size i guess, like on the custom homeapps, so your wallpapper scrolls only half of what it did with only 3screens ;)

gnah i dondt need more screens, i need my screen to fit more stuff xD maybe i dream of a resolution this night.. lets hope so
[G1 Android Development] borodin1:
I don't use alternative home apps. I tried one when they first came out (dxTop I think?), it was too slow for my taste so I uninstalled it and haven't looked back.I don't remember how those apps handle wallpaper. I don't even know why I asked in the first place. I use mostly simple walls and barely notice them move:p

Yep.. I'm a simple man :D
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
What the actual launcher app does is span the wallpaper across X screens. Currently X = 2. That is the default. I was thinking about changing it, but then all the wallpapers would look funny.
[G1 Android Development] bassbox:
Well, i don't use them too, but one of my mates does ;)

@dude, does it noticeable affect the perfomance? i guess not cuz u implented it^^
[G1 Android Development] BAD_BOY_KIEV:
I have a problem!

Came from JF 1.42.

Did wipe.

Installed 0.94.

Radio is updated.

BUT The Gallery cannot see the pics stored on SD, ASTRO does, OS's Gallery no. Tried to change folders - didn't worked. Any suggestions?

update: REBOOTED, ON\OFF, SEVERAL TIMES > NO RESULT

??? :confused:
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
Well, I can look into it. I'm going to upgrade my girlfriends phone to this build tonight. I'll see if her gallery is affected.

My gallery sees all files on the SD card. I'll check when upgrading what the issue is. I'm sure it is related to some stale data. once I figure it out, it will work in .95
[G1 Android Development] beagz:
gallery working fine here. Also ported ultra_spikey's Aero_black based on his JF1.5 release (I fixed his songs button too). I just want confirmation from him before I post a link.
[G1 Android Development] jklong03:
how to setup RSS

I would like to subscribe to update RSS feed but dont see how with the current browser. I downloaded two RSS apps but am not sure what to do with them. Without a toolbar on the browser I am lost?
[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
Firefox does it out of the box. If you're not using firefox, you're probably missing out.
[G1 Android Development] g2crx:
never mind
[G1 Android Development] skri11a:
lol... You can't on your phone, if that's what you're asking.
[G1 Android Development] jaaronmoody:
i think he's referring to your computer's browser, not your g1's, which is not firefox supported yet.
[G1 Android Development] g2crx:
yeah at first i thought it was for the phone lol
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
are there themes already made for these builds?
[G1 Android Development] jklong03:
I am currently limited to my phone only. Had the feed fine on my firefox. Just was wondering if there was any way to monitor the feed on my phone. You are so prodigious at new releases I was hoping to track on phone. Guess monitoring the root post in this thread will have to do for now.

You rock by the way!
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
I was going to to flash and try out the dude's version but now i see that hes testing the new one out and might just have to wait for that :)
[G1 Android Development] MetalMessiah78:
@ TheDudeOfLife

I can not wait for the 5 home screens. That sounds like such an awesome feature.

Gallery works mint here on .94.

@ Bassbox

Don't get me wrong. It would be great if it updated on its own, and I would want nothing more. It just doesn't affect me as much as others as it updates on a power cycle, which I do at least once, if not more times a day.

@ jklong03

How about subscribing to his RSS feed through Google Reader? That way you always have access to it on your phone.
[G1 Android Development] Gimpeh:
Is there anyway you can set a option to have the home screens as left, right, center, up, down? That would be completely and utterly awesome!
[G1 Android Development] stellarman:
There a at least two or three very good RSS readers in the market. The easiest way is to use Google Feeds and hook into that with the RSS readers in the market. Look for 'Greed' or 'BeyondPod'.
[G1 Android Development] stellarman:
My Gallery works fine and picks up everything on the SD card, and I:

Came from JF 1.42

Installed the radio

Installed 0.92

Didn't even wipe.

Updated to 0.93

Works fine (after some various reboots etc.)

I know that doesn't help you with your problem. But, it might help TheDude diagnose the problem and fix it. I hope that helps.
[G1 Android Development] stellarman:
Battery life

I have been following this thread closely for a week or so, and I know there has been some discussion about battery life. But, I don't recall that there was ever any agreement about whether the battery life was really worse, by how much, or if there was a fix for it.

I know that I saw a very noticeable drop in battery up-time when I came over to this ROM. I would estimate that I seem to have lost at least a third to a half of my battery time. On JF 1.42, I could easily and often get about 36 hours of light to moderate use on one charge, running 3G, Bluetooth, and automatically synching with Google. Now, I never get more than about 12 hours before the battery is down to 15% and I need to recharge. I have taken to turning off Bluetooth whenever I am not actually using the headset. Before, I could leave Bluetooth on and connected 24/7 and still get good battery life.

Since I upgraded the radio at the same time I came over to TheDude's builds, it is hard to tell if maybe the radio could be the culprit. Or, I wonder if there might be an application that runs in the background (and loads at boot?) that is running ALL THE TIME, undetected, in 1.5 and causing the battery to drain. Or, I don't know...

All I know is that I don't want to give up the cool stuff in TheDude's builds. But I would REALLY like to figure out how to get back to a decent amount of battery life. It's harder to use and enjoy the phone when it is on the charging cord.

Anyone have any suggestions?
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
jesus christ 36 hours? I havent gotten that on the factory build, or any of haykuros or dudes. I cant even conceptualize 36 hours of moderate use. I do know that lately my battery level will say one thing and when I power down and turn back on it will say almost twice as much...dont know if that helps
[G1 Android Development] MetalMessiah78:
Poor Battery Life

This is one thing that I can admit to. My battery life sucks since switching over to the 1.5 rom. It was never great to begin with, but it just seems to fly now. At the same time, there were no widgets before, so perhaps that might be a problem?

Also, my battery seems to take an eternity to charge.

I read someone on here was having battery problems as well and was able to get it to improve. I think he let the battery drain until it died. He tried powering it on until it would no longer fire up. He then charged it while turned off and that seemed to help.
[G1 Android Development] stellarman:
I tried what you suggested, and the battery level went from 28% to 31%, as reported by "Toggle Settings." If there were a bigger difference (like twice -- as you suggested) I would think that would be a huge clue that something weird was going on.

A fairly large amount of the 36 hours was just "stand-by" time. But my point is that my usage patterns haven't changed dramatically, while my battery life has. The exact numbers are hard to determine. But, subjectively, it is a BIG difference.
[G1 Android Development] JAWheat411:
I used the tech news widget thing and it really sucked the life out of my battery. It was updating every 5 minutes. With that off it lasted 2 to 3 times longer. It is good to calibrate the battery once a month or so (let it die then charge it until full and then some)
[G1 Android Development] stellarman:
I saw that tread and applied that technique back when I was on JF 1.42. And I thought it did make a big difference. It seemed to re-set some kind of internal battery gauge in the system. That is when I started getting GOOD battery life. Now, I am back to the 'bad old days'. I have tried doing the same thing with the new ROM. I ran the battery down completely, plugged the phone in while it was off, let it charge completely, took it off the charge, and turned it on. That was the technique that worked before. No luck this time.
[G1 Android Development] Nikeem24:
Same here my Battery life sucks........:mad::cool: But im not mad. lol:D
[G1 Android Development] abatman:
Battery Programs

Don't forget that the Power Manager program that would do i nice job of automatically managing different things no longer works. I think that made a huge difference.
[G1 Android Development] berish:
hey, dude?

i'm not hoping for this to be implemented any time soon, but do you have a vague idea when you'll put in the bluetooth keyboard compatibility?

thanks and thanks again!
[G1 Android Development] stellarman:
That might be nice to have. But it couldn't make a difference in my observations because I never used Power Manager.

Thanks for the input anyway.
[G1 Android Development] JAWheat411:
Maybe we can get this back on topic soon lol....but Power Manager is great it worked wonders for the battery. It just doesn't work with any 1.5 build including "Dudes". Word is that it will be updated sometime this week. This is one of the programs I actually paid for. Shame I can't use it right now.
[G1 Android Development] MetalMessiah78:
Battery Life

I think it's the widgets personally. Many connect to data to update info. Some query the system for status information. Add to that all the regular stuff our battery has learned to love intimately: Google Talk and Gmail running in the background all the time, plus the sporadic calendar and contact syncs... And, that's not even counting calls, texts, mms, the power the screen uses, Bluetooth, wifi, GPS, and checking marketplace every time you remember. Ha ha ha.
[G1 Android Development] jklong03:
My my my but that newest radio really seems to have improved browser loads very noticeably:)

:eek:
[G1 Android Development] g2crx:
That was so last week.j/k lol I cant wait for .95 to drop.Been hitting f5 like crazy.

p.s. Power Manager was the sh*t cant wait for the update.
[G1 Android Development] BSDADON:
Yea I know what you mean, I have the RSS Feed of his updates and I keep checking greed every few minutes to see if it is up. On the comp I usually f5 his google code page to see if the previous update has been removed, and if it has then :eek:

http://code.google.com/p/thedudescupcake/
[G1 Android Development] g2crx:
OH Sanp..lol
[G1 Android Development] benmyers2941:
Has anyone else had bluetooth issues with .94?

I had .93 and it worked fine, but just today it wouldn't put the call audio through, but the other end could hear me. Maybe just a fluke
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
I haven't had that type of issue, only issue that I have had with Bluetooth has been with the stereo audio clipping...

Maybe you should try flashing again, .95 might be out really soon....
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
.94 was taken down a couple of minutes ago.....are there any themes built yet for these builds?
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
No, well atleast not any official ones. There will be a custom default theme on the 1.0 release(by manup).
[G1 Android Development] benmyers2941:
I've had the clipping happen too, but turning off the wifi seemed to help when it was happening.

I'll just wait for .95 at this point before flashing again... I'm mean it's just around the corner... right... :D
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
My audio seems to clip on and off whether wifi is on or off....it does seem that .95 is right around the corner....hopefully.....:D
[G1 Android Development] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Heh, I'm using the test version(I made the apps2sd method he's using, afterall) and it's pretty freakin sweet. Open Overclocker came up to overclock at boot before the setup wizard even came up lol
[G1 Android Development] Ooglez:
By the way, thanks for making that better method of Apps2SD, it's great to see that nothing is truly ever "done" here at xda :)

edit because that sounded totally sarcastic: I'm serious, it's good to see constant development.
[G1 Android Development] inportb:
To the Teeter players... How many levels are there in this game? o.0

Werd, that's a straight up clever use of unionfs. I'm inspired to try implementing filesystem snapshotting/rollback using a similar technique. Do you reckon it would be possible with little overhead?
[G1 Android Development] jklong03:
I give up! Either I'm dense or have forgoten something that is obvious. I've d/l the terminal emulator app 3 times. After notification that it completes, I install and open it fine. Then I go hit home and can't find it again! Not in my app list anywhere! So embarass me and tell me how to access it please! :o
[G1 Android Development] jayb222:
So is dude still releasing .95 tonight?
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
It seemed like he was...but now I'm not too sure.....I've been hitting F5 for an hour now:o......man I should really get some sleep...:p
[G1 Android Development] jayb222:
lol just restart your phone. It'll be there.
[G1 Android Development] brianb7590:
Yup! That has happened to me a few times with the Terminal Emulator and a restart fixes it.
