bluetooth problem in 3.3.5

Hi everyone,

I seem to still have a problem turning on my bluetooth. It says the issue was fixed several versions ago, so I wanted to see what was recommended. I first wiped, and tried thre stable 3.2 and then flashed to 3.3.5 hoping to see a fix. Any help?? Thanks fotr a great firmware mod
[G1 Android Development] ian1001:
on the new keyboard calibration force closes for me.
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
I've had zero issues w BT using v3.3.5. Stereo works fine as well as regular phone calls through bt.
[G1 Android Development] jsapp:
How many apps do you have? I had a similar issue, but it was only my protected apps giving me issues, not all of them. What I did was uninstall them through manage applications. Then I wiped and re-installed the rom. After that I could reinstall the apps from the market and so far so good, but I do see where this could be a pain if you have a ton of apps.

*edit

Never mind, I reinstalled all of the apps and it did it again. Going to try to find out which app it is.
[G1 Android Development] cidica:
Try flashing straight to 3.3.5 I just tested mine out and it's working perfectly so far.
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
One suggestion.

You might want to bring over the HTC_IME from the Roger's build. Its improved over the older HTC_IME in that the word suggestions don't cover up the text that you are typing if the text is above the keyboard.

Plus, it feels quicker than the older HTC_IME.

I tried out the Roger's ROM and its pretty nice, but a lot slower than your build, even with the cpu set to 528mhz.
[G1 Android Development] jimbo831:
I really don't think it's an app causing our problem. It seems like the Apps to SD link isn't being recognized by the phone after reboots for some reason. For me, I couldn't uninstall through the "manage applications" option. When I went there, it didn't even show them in the list, very weird. I did have a ton of apps.

But, I'm now going to the extreme. I am reformatting my EXT3 partition completely, wiping the phone, installing the OS, then installing the Theme. We will see at that point if it comes back. If so, I can only assume there's some glitch in this Apps to SD setup. I know it is not just the theme, since it did it today after a wipe and a fresh install without the theme. Hopefully reformatting my partition helps.
[G1 Android Development] rushless:
Seems like more people are having problems rather than having a stable OS experience. The key of course is the OS was not designed for apps2sd, nor were most apps created considering this.

Not being critical here, since anything worth doing is a learning experience. Kind of wish I had a separate G1 just for playing in rom build world. For me, I could care less about bluetooth and have all the apps I need for now- Shopsavvy, Maps, Steel, Shazzam, Nesoid, Gensoid, Arcade Emu and Jewellust come to mind.

I only have 13 megs free using JF 1.5 but heck, I have over 1,000 games with the emulators Gensoid, Nesoid and Arcade. All three emu blow away anything I have tried on other phones and OS's.

I estimate that in about three or four months all of the great effort from devs at XDA will hit a stable OS nirvana for apps2sd and we will see one standard approach. Perhaps 32 gig cards will be out near this time and then the card constraint that apps2sd creates will not be an issue.

You all rock!

Mine is very stable, however, cyan lists the latest builds as experimental...If you are looking for stable, dl 3.2....Mine is stable and smoking fast at 3.3.5..
[G1 Android Development] jimbo831:
I have what I hope is a very basic question. I have reformatted and partitioned my SD card using Paragon Partition Manager. I now have a 1.25GB EXT3 partition and the rest FAT32. However, when I put this card in my computer's card reader, windows only reads the EXT3 partition, saying that it's not formatted. It won't read my FAT32 partitoin at all so I can't put my backed up data on it. Anyone know why?

Both partitions are currently primary partitions. Do I need to change one to logical, or should I leave them this way? Thanks for any help.
[G1 Android Development] TheGreenJester:
My guess is that you have the EXT3 partition first on the card; it should be the other way around. FAT32 first, then EXT2/3 - both primary partitions.
[G1 Android Development] sir*mez:
fat32 first then the ext2/3 and they both have to be primary.
[G1 Android Development] jimbo831:
You are correct, I did create that one first. Is there any way for me to change the order without deleting both partitions and recreating them?
[G1 Android Development] TheGreenJester:
Gparted (Linux) will let you swap the order. Newer versions of Partition Magic may, I'm not sure.
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
Nevermind htc_ime.apk and libt9.so are identical. Looks like the roger's rom is using a different ime library.

looks like its using libimezi.so (or another library can't be sure) where as the google builds are using libjni_latinime.so.
[G1 Android Development] Denkai:
wow, blazing fast man. excellent rom Cyan. I had some hic-ups with my apps and browser going from JF 1.51 to 3.3.5. after a quick wipe, 3.3.5 grabbed all the apps off my ext2, converted it to ext3, and installed almost all the apps. had to redownload some protected apps, but no big deal. setup my desktop, cleared browser cache (settings ->Applications ->browser->clear cache) and reboot. for the first time sense upgrading to cupcake I booted up and wasn't greeted to some app (com.coool.somethingeranother) crashing. Excellent work, keep it up.
[G1 Android Development] jimbo831:
Hopefully the last time I'll have to bother everyone. Right now, I have this ROM already installed on my phone, but I'm wanting to reinstall. I now have my card partitioned properly. Do I have to still power the phone and type anything through terminal emulator to mount the EXT3 partition since I completely reformatted the card? If so, which directions should I install from here. Once I have my card set up correctly (if it isn't already), I plan to Wipe, Reflash the ROM, then reflash the theme, and hope for the best. Thanks again.

To further elaborate, when I flash the ROM, will it properly link everything over to the EXT3 partition, or do I need to use ADB or terminal emulator to set that up before reflashing. Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] simms22:
i have been using v3.3.5 for 2 days now , this is my favorite rom :D only the keyboard calibration forces close(oh well) . absolutely wonderful rom . blazing speeds ! thank you cyanogen , keep up the extraordenary work !
[G1 Android Development] jsapp:
You are right. Only reason I was thinking an app was that it was happening only when reinstalling apps I had uninstalled after the first boot. Then I tried to install only a couple and reboot, and everything was there. Tried a couple more and everything was still there. That's when I posted. Well, did some more and everything was gone. So wiped and flashed again, uninstalled the protected apps and trebooted a couple times, without doing anything in between. Then after a couple times, it was gone.

Think I am doing the same as you when I get off work and reformatting the card. Wish I hadn't tried a theme. I figured it wouldn't work, but figured I could always wipe.

I'll let you know what happens for me. I really love the Hero theme (and don't particularly like the plain look of the stock OS) so I am trying the theme as well with my new reformatted card and wipe. Others have used this theme (and other themes with this OS) without trouble, so I'm hoping I still can. If the problem comes back, I guess I will completely reformat again and try it without the theme. I really hope I can get it all working because this build is so much faster and less laggy (with no force closes) than all the other cupcake builds I've tried.
[G1 Android Development] ROGUE7474:
I'm new to this rom, and would just like to know if you can use themes with it. I'm particularly interested in the Manup theme from the Dude's build 1.2b. Thanks in advance.
[G1 Android Development] sir*mez:
Yes themes from JFv1.5ADP work I have themes on both my phone with this rom.
[G1 Android Development] jsapp:
Many have reported that they have success with themes but some of us have had problems with themes and 3.3.5. Up to you but from now on I am sticking to themes made for the build. Cause I'm sticking with this rom theme or not.
[G1 Android Development] rasturn:
same thing

i got the same block size and problems:confused:
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
Just uploaded 3.3.6. This has a few kernel tweaks, and I spent a bunch of time testing with apps like imeem that use tons of resources. Disabling AUFS *does* give better overall performance, but since it's super easy to get started with, it will stay as the default for A2SD. See the first post for info and changes.

In the Fedora linux list, we had a long thread about ext3 on Sd cards. Consensus was that it is bad to do this because it will use up the finite number of writes on the card. They recommend VFAT because it does not make as many separate writes when files are accessed. ext2 is expensive because it tracks so many attributes,especially atime.. ext3 is more costly because of journaling.

In this list, I've not seen much discussion on this, but plenty of people write 'my SD card died.' Maybe that's just a coincidence

So ext2 with norelatime, noatime would be the best option for now until we look into jaffs and yaffs and possibly cramfs and squashfs to save space
[G1 Android Development] JakobFriedrich:
haha weird what class was yours and i love ext3
[G1 Android Development] usmc2k:
*Cyanogen* How kan u get unifos on this rom ?????
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
Spend the extra $5 on a class 6 card that does proper wear leveling and stop blaming me for your problems.
[G1 Android Development] JakobFriedrich:
wow cynagon i respect taht answer
[G1 Android Development] defconoi:
It is a class 6, sorry I forgot to mention that.
[G1 Android Development] kscasper13:
bwhahahahaha, nice cyan!

seriously, i've had no issues with my 2 gig sd card, and its been in 2 T mob Wings before this G1, been goin strong with Apps2SD on cyanogen's Roms for 2 weeks now, but hey, every card and phone are different.

flashing 3.3.6 now:D
[G1 Android Development] usmc2k:
I have a class 4 no problems here... get a sandisk
[G1 Android Development] sir*mez:
that's weird I've been on EXT3 since day 1 on a 8gb calss6 sdcard and I've maybe done like 10-15 formats and its still rocking with no problem. Idk but for what it seems cyanogen knows what he's doing and I appreciate everything he's done. Reliablity and speed in one!!
[G1 Android Development] defconoi:
I am lucky to have a dozen cards and could really care less, never had any issues with them before but the truth is ext3 with journaling enabled will still wear down the flash memory, oh and be prepared for more "ext3 broke my flash memory" posts because most people dont have a class 6, if I remember correctly the G1 ships with a class 2. You should make ext3 optional and remove the auto conversion.
[G1 Android Development] nolageek:
8GB Class6 here, no problems yet. (Knock on wood.)

Love the ROM Cyan.. The speed of this is keeping me from going back to any of the other ones.. I haven't had this thing slow down on me yet... this and the Hero Port Theme are just killer together. Maybe talk with tehseano and see if he'll let you use it as the default theme when he gets to 1.0? :) Just an idea.
[G1 Android Development] sir*mez:
I don't think your in the position to tell cyanogen what, what not or what should be optional in his builds. You flashed his rom, did someone put a gun to your head?? End of story!!
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
I'm actually on my third SD card in my G1. The first two died before I tried any sort of ext filesystem or app2sd. They were both Sandisk cards. I bought an Adata card and haven't had a single problem with it and have been using ext3 for about a month now. I've also been running ext3 (and now ext4) on an Adata card in my EeePC for about 6 months now and not a single problem.

I am just trying to push some boundaries here and make our devices better.

The writes to the ext3 partition are actually pretty minimal in this ROM since it doesn't allow the /data/data directory to be on your card. It's also mounted as noatime/nodiratime. The only writes to the thing are when you install apps.

Also, you can't use JFFS2 or YAFFS on these cards, they only work on MTD devices. There is an emulation layer, but that kind of defeats the purpose.
[G1 Android Development] lilmoh:
Hey my first post in this thread, tried searching but couldnt find anything. I went from 3.3.4 to .5 and when I flashed it I seemed to have lost the auto-complete dictionary with my android keyboard. went back to 3.3.4 and it was working great. Now I have the same problem on 3.3.6, no auto-complete with the android keyboard. Any ideas on what might be the problem? Ive wiped countless times, but nothing seems to work.
[G1 Android Development] iflyabeech:
Thanks Cyan...The audio is much clearer now and still fast and stable with 3.3.6...
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
so what were the tweak u put in 3.3.6? This version really flies. Hardly any slowdown when streaming imeem in the background and doing other stuff.
[G1 Android Development] defconoi:
Ya i've killed a bunch of cards as well since october with my g1, hopefully ext3 proves to be stable.. I dont know why the card is so currupt and it has so many bad blocks all of a sudden, I noticed it right after 3.3.5 booted the first time, it was going through a bootloop constantly writing to the /system/sd partition which may have killed it, I'll just blame it on the card for now, thanks cyanogen for experimenting with your build and making it better for the community.

3.3.6

Install went great, and keyboard calibration tool now works :)

The system settings menus are really fast now, with 3.3.5 they were laggy

Thanks for the new build :D

stuck on android screen

I just did the 3.2v and i've been on the android screen for over a minuite my screen when black even. Any ideas?
[G1 Android Development] bethel03:
Sorry to quote myself, I know you were busy doing yet another great update. Just want to be sure on how things work before flashing.
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
I added the auto-conversion because a lot of people were having trouble doing it manually. I might remove this because there seems to be some dissent and users should be able to decide for themselves. I am working on a new recovery image that includes the e2fsprogs and you'll be able to fsck and convert filesystems right from the menu.

My biggest concern originally was Android's lack of proper shutdown and no fsck on boot (by default it turns off the radio and just kills the power), which was causing the ext2 partition to become corrupt every few days. Since we have actual shutdown and auto fsck on boot in this ROM, it's much safer now if you wanted to use a non-journalled FS.
[G1 Android Development] defconoi:
I dont know what to think really, maybe my card was just at the end of its life, but if ext3 is faster and more reliable the way you are implementing it I guess i'll take you for your word. Will ext3 work ok for the people with sdhc class 1 and 2 without problems? If so id say go for it and ignore the concerns I had from what I researched.

By the way it seems both you and dudeoflife seem to be after the same objectives regarding the roms, why dont you combine the work and create one build?
[G1 Android Development] Denkai:
wait longer. sometimes it just takes a while the first time. if all else fails goto your recovery menu and hit alt-w.
[G1 Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Major issues with 3.3.6. I updated to it and now when I make phone calls I hear nothing, maybe a lil noise. The phone says connected and the other phone rings but I cant hear anything on my end. Goin back to 3.3.5, but any ideas...I really wanna try the new build.
[G1 Android Development] facelessuser:
3.3.6 is causing a number of my apps to force close on launch. Not happy right now.
[G1 Android Development] Denkai:
I personally like the fact it did the conversion for me. You're doing great work Cyan, don't doubt yourself.

As for me, I am now on 3.3.6. after boot and what seemed like forever, it finnally showed me what I wanted, an AWESOME rom. great work.
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
Another bug. Can't select speaker when on a call. That button is greyed out.

Can you give me a link to this theme? Does it work with this build?!? Any hints?
[G1 Android Development] Denkai:
Dictionary Missing: I noticed this too when I first went to 3.3.5, however I don't use the feature so if it makes it faster for me, the better.

No Speaker Phone button: I am having the same problem. I'll stick with 3.3.6 still though, thinking of using lucids script to change audio files to see if it works again. however I'm about to head off.
[G1 Android Development] Jak Crow:
I did a wipe from the spl, installed 3.3.6, which went fine, got everything up and running, but trying to install anything from the market fails saying "Insufficient storage available", even though the system says there's 60MB phone memory available. Reverting to 3.2.
[G1 Android Development] ubernicholi:
how to fix this is a few pages back

chmod 755 /system/sd/app/

chmod 755 /system/sd/app-private/

maybe cache and data
[G1 Android Development] Denkai:
this is probably due to it trying to put your apps on your SD card. do you have your SD card partitioned? if not, try doing so.
[G1 Android Development] Denkai:
Oh Cyan, I have a feature to ask for, if it's even possible at your level, I hope it is. do you think it is possible to add flash player to the browser? if you need help find out what's involved I'll do some research, but I have no clue how to run a linux based system.
[G1 Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Flash is a MAJOR browser modification\feature that most likely needs to be implemented by google and adobe. There isn't a plug-in or anything that can be installed (Yet!!!) to allow the browser to understand flash. Once adobe starts development of an android version of flash player, then people such as Cyan can start making hack to implement the feature into the browser because HTC\T-Mo\Google are not fast enough to keep up our demands haha

I can stream music wifi and use browser at the same time with out lagging and crashing. :D

Market got strange after down loading and installing an app. With music streaming and while app was installing my aHome reset, and it reloaded.

I had to reinput my aHome settings . ;)

second app i installed had no problems, even with music streaming. :D

I love it the best build yet.
[G1 Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Bug in 3.3.6 - for some reason, whenever i made a call or received one, I couldn't hear anything, and neither could the person on the other end. Reverted back to 3.3.5, and everything works fine. Maybe a problem w/ the new audio profiles?? Hopefully this can be worked out, wanna try this build for multi-tasking :-) Thanx Cyan!
[G1 Android Development] djcookiedj:
bump on the speaker button....which is useful while either driving or doing stuff with ur hands....cyanogen i doubt you want to be the cause of death of some1 driving.....next thing u see is death causes by g1 rom not having a speaker button lol.....(not trying to be an a**)
[G1 Android Development] xhoangx:
Hi guys, I just got my G1 a few days ago and I'm loving it so far but I am quickly running out of internal memory space. My plan is to root and update my G1 to JF 1.51 ADP for now but plan on updating to this ROM in about 1.5 weeks (when my 8gb microsd card comes). My question is, when I get the card, do all I need to do is make the 2 partitions(fat32 and ext2) on the card and then update to this ROM and it will automatically convert the ext2 to ext3 and do the apps2sd? Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] TheMan42:
Some of you guys really need to cut Cyanogen some slack and let him do his thing - he's doing this on his OWN time and his ROMs are clearly marked as "test/beta" right now. Don't piss him off like some did to Haykuro.
[G1 Android Development] facelessuser:
It appears this install corrupted a number of my installed apps. When I launch them, the immediately force close. I then have to uninstall them and then install them. I don't know what went wrong.
[G1 Android Development] smacknca:
Because the whole point of trying these out is to work out the bugs..on 3.3.6 in call volume controls (and as mentioned speaker button) dont seem to work. otherwise its feeling extra snappy.

An aside on volume, I havent kept up with all the volume profile changes but its starting to get awfully loud. I didnt realize people were having so much trouble hearing, but in call volume is getting to the point of being painfully loud. Obviously right now its broken so that doesnt count, but I'm getting a tad bit worried at the trend for ever increasing levels. :)
