Earlier in the thread I posted my only solution to this problem. You have to have the HTC_IME.apk located in /system/app instead of /data (doesn't matter if it is on the intmem or extmem part of the data union, still forgets the settings upon reboot).

Cyan - I have a slight issue after flashing your rom, my audio (with the stock or Meridian) skips occasionally, it's not the worst thing ever, but annoying. When having a look with RoboTop, there is nothing else eating the CPU. So, I don't know what is causing this. Today, I will try putting the phone into airplane mode and listening to music on the way to work, to see if it is some network activity. But, I have a suspicion that will not alleviate this.

I have not modified the audio files (the stock audio sounds pretty good to me - I have great headphones and encode my own music files from lossless sources). The CPU usage on the mediaserver thread is around 20% (something I have noticed going along using SetCPU - the max cpu speed does not affect that 20%, however if I increase the min cpu speed I can get the usage down to 13%).

Any ideas, or tests? I am a willing guinea pig.
[G1 Android Development] Binary100100:
Well that's a relief. That tells me that the cause of our problem is either because of a common user error, common conflicting app, issue with sdcard, common issue with the ext3 partition.

I'm not going to bother listing all 175 apps (I've uninstalled about half thinking that could have been causing the issues) but I had to format my card with Paragon Partition Manager to ext3 because I tried following the steps in the threads and it didn't work (everything was moved to lost+found folder and I checked the card and it was STILL ext2 after everything finished). I am using the 16gb ADATA card from Newegg with a 1gb ext3 partition.

Do we have anything in common?
[G1 Android Development] simms22:
This rom is 43mb . I believe jf's 1.51 was 37mb . Now that said , I am running cyanogens 3.4 and do not have apps to sd . From my opinion , there aren't any other roms even close to cyanogens for speed and multitasking . If you don't have apps to sd and don't mind loosing a little space , 3.4 is awesome . If you have apps to sd and its quick , imagine how fast it is without apps to sd !

I have tried to Partion my card into fat32 and ext3 ..but Partion manager saids I have to buy the whole version...any Partion program that is free?? I have partion backup which only let's you partion the card to ext2 or ext3 or fat 32..but doesn't let u split the card into two partions.
[G1 Android Development] Argusi:
Ended up going back to try to figure it out. I disabled persistent mode and although it has it's own issues, it's a lot better. I never thought of that because it was supposedly to be used in low memory situations and I assumed that wasn't my issue. I hesitate to guess there is something in the caching that is causing the problem on this rom and others. I don't know if it affects OTA also.
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
Do you have any widgets installed? That can slow down the phone quite a bit and use up memory as well.
[G1 Android Development] Argusi:
The only thing that was installed after the wipe was dxTop and the theme. The only widget that was on the desktop was Google Search. Currently, I have persistent mode off and I am back up to 60-70 apps w/ about 3 widgets installed with very little lag.

I'm pretty convinced it's something with persistent mode that is causing the issue. It's working okay, just sometimes it's slow going back to the desktop because dxTop has unloaded due to disabling persistent mode. I can live with that :)
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
ok that could be the issue. I use dxtop exclusively and I do notice dxtop causing some slowdown issues occasionally.

I've had email exchanges with the author and he's pretty responsive if you send him debugging information and detailed steps on how to reproduce the problem. If you just say "dxtop sucks, slows down the system", he'll ignore you of course.

[G1 Android Development] jrherras:
i know you want to...:) or dl the apps2sd app it can make ext2 then flash cynogen's recovery to convert to ext3 or just flash his rom to automatically convert ext2 to ext3
[G1 Android Development] Abolfazl:
Is showing the space svailable on ext3 also your doing cyan?
[G1 Android Development] Argusi:
I posted basic info on his forum. It was fairly easy to reproduce on my phone. I will probably e-mail him when I get the time to put together something more informative.

"dxtop sucks, slows down the system"

I don't speak like that, btw. I work for one of the largest software companies (technical side) in the world and I need detailed info to fix stuff. Been on both sides of the fence. That kind of comment annoys me. It just shows a lack of maturity and understanding of what is needed to correct an issue. :)
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
Yeah, since AUFS essentially makes your internal storage and your SD partition look like one filesystem.
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
I am going to be gone until Sunday starting tomorrow, so no updates for a bit.

Thanks Again Cyanogen

I started with jf1.51 upgraded to 3.3.5, 3.3.8 now to 3.4. Ran fix_permissions and no problems. Great build! Thanks for your hard work. Is there a way to buy you a beer? Never mind I see the paypal link on your posts.

Hi.

I've recently install this build, and at this far it works fine.

But I have a problem: I can't use the text prediction-auto completion feature for the touch keyboards, for none language (I want to use it in spanish).

In fact, I've made myself a mess with the options in Text configuration: wich is Android keyboard?

If I change the keyboard type in Touch Input, the on-screen keyboard should change?

I don't see any changes.

Thanks for your help

Since moving to 3.4 I've noticed that gmail is only syncing one way. New mail is being shown on my phone, but I can't send out from my phone nor do any changes made on my phone get sent to my gmail account - mail stays unread after I read it, messages do not get deleted, labels dont get changed and as I said, nothing gets sent and things just just stay as "sending..." on my phone.

I wiped before installing 3.4 as well.
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
Can you reproduce it without a theme installed? It's working here for me.

I had it lock up with CM v3.4 once this morning (about 4 hours ago) but it was on overnight and wasn't locked up this morning. I have used it since then and still no lockup. Just running CM v3.4 and NO THEME.

When I had the hero theme on there it would lockup every 15 minutes or so, but only when I was NOT using the phone - never when the phone is in use. Just weird because I had the hero theme on there for a week and never had the issue, it was only when I updated this weekend with the CM3.4+HERO 1.2 did it start.
[G1 Android Development] kitsunisan:
Sorry if this has been mentioned before, I searched and found nothing, but is downloading from the browser an issue with this build? I have 3.4 on with the Hero 1.2 theme, new partition on both fat32 and ext2, and well over 3gb free space on the fat32 partition, but I get an error saying there is not enough space.
[G1 Android Development] HorusUK:
I have just flashed JF1.51 and re-installed from a wipe. Such is the pain of modding!

I too have lots of apps - aTrackDog tells me it's 118, but I had loads more from before the wipe that I'm slowly restoring from backups.

I tried several reformats of my sd-card using my Ubuntu PC, my windows PC, and SDSplit on my G1. I've also flashed radio, rom, and boot several times and several ways.

I never actually got to the bottom of my troubles, I can tell you that the ext3 partition never really "stuck". One reboot it'd be mounted as ext3, the next back to ext2. Very bizarre.

I'm using an 8Gb SDHC card that for some reason I don't see in my card reader, but I can format if I mount the G1 on Ubuntu with gParted. Your ext3 partition is generously sized. I've only tried with a maximum of 500Mb and with over 200 apps I was only using 128Mb with everything except Data mapped to /system/sd.

My current solution of Cyanogen's recovery image, Lucid's boot image, and JF1.51 with lucid's script to convert the partition to ext3 and do all the grunt work has worked very well, and I've spent a fraction of the time getting a working system back, with ext3. I've ditched dxTop and am using default home.

I'm keeping an eye on this mod. I do like it a lot. However, until these issues are fixed, this mod is not for me.
[G1 Android Development] namsir:
huge lag when you try to uninstall some of the apps :( with 100+ apps

That was it. cleared the data and re-synced and it started working again!
[G1 Android Development] USNCorpsman:
don't roast me i just don't want to read through 2000 posts!

If i'm coming from JF 1.51 CRB43 and i want to try the cyanogen mod will i have any issues just doing a wipe and then installing using back + home and using update.zip off of my SD card? and will i have any issues if i only have EXT2 on my SD card vs. EXT3?
[G1 Android Development] robbie725:
If you are coming from a JF ROM you should not need to wipe and having only EXT2 is not an issue... the update will convert your EXT2 to EXT3 although I think you can choose not to now, BUT i am not sure and I am sure someone else will answer you...
[G1 Android Development] G'uno:
I did the same...

IF YOU FLASH 3.3.2 BUILD FIRST IT WILL CONVERT YOUR ext2 TO ext3 FOR YOU...

THEN YOU CAN GO AHEAD AND FLASH THE VERY STABLE 3.4 AND THEN ADD HIS RECOVERY IMAGE

Hope that helped

Bluetooth headset not working 3.4

This mod seems great over all, and I thank the developer for what is clearly a lot of hard work.

The only problem I am having is that my Bluetooth headset won't work with my G1. It pairs up correctly, but when it comes to sound transferring to the headset, it simply doesn't work. It allows the sound transfer to "happen," but no sound comes out of the headset.

When I disconnect the headset after a failed attempt to use it, audio on the phone doesn't work at all, and the speakerphone speaker sounds like it is "on" with no sound coming out of it. I have to power cycle the phone to make audio work again.

I have tried several version of the audio fix (per the suggestion somewhere earlier in this threat) and none of them fixed this problem. I tried rolling back to 3.3.8, and that didn't fix the problem either.

Does anyone have any help or suggestions?
[G1 Android Development] USNCorpsman:
Good deal :) so if i just flash with the 3.4 i wont need to worry about converting my EXT2 over to EXT3? and will i have any other issues? ie. losing root, with my SPL, losing all my apps, and i know i can't install myfaves, but that really doesn't matter does it? since they wont charge me for those numbers anyway :)
[G1 Android Development] robbie725:
your SPL should be ok as this ROM does not require the new Haykuro SPL, which is cool that it does not due to the size of the ROM... and yes you should not have to worry about your EXT2 or APPS I would recommend that you also flash the new recovery image... found in this thread... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=523558 although it is not really needed to use this ROM! And this will not cause you to lose ROOT...

Although you may want to go back 3 posts... G'uno says to 1st flash the 3.3.2 build 1st to convert your EXT then flash the 3.4v!

peace
[G1 Android Development] Maisum:
Everytime I try and boot this build up I get stuck at the G1 screen...any help?
[G1 Android Development] Chedderknight:
best bet is to wipe, and keep wiping till it runs through, I had to at one point wipe 4 times before running complete. been stable ever since.
[G1 Android Development] stellarman:
I was having precisely the same problem. I used the Lucid script program to load a couple of different volume mods. Volume v2 fixed the issue. Volume v4 broke it again. Obviously, I went back to v2. You need to reboot after installing one of the volume mods (just in case you forgot to do that).

Good luck.
[G1 Android Development] jdscully:
I guess I spoke too soon - I just spent about 30 mins on the phone and after putting it down for 5 minutes it locked up again. This was the first lengthy call I had made all day.

I was asking about apps2sd on the latest cyanogen build, not a fastboot restore. Thanks though. All i want to know is if im save to move apps2sd using cyans recovery image with SD already partitioned and the reason im asking is marcus app, and there have been so many dif discussions about ap2sd that im just a bit confused if anything else needs to be done. BTW i already have cyans latest build and recovery image installed.
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
Yep, just run "move apps to sd", it will move everything you have installed from internal memory to your sdcard and you'll be set to go on this build.

Missing apps... again.

Update available for Open Home in Market.

Clicked update.

Rebooted immediately after.

*Poof!* Everything's gone.

What happened? This has been happening to me ALOT and it's pissing me off.

As soon as I reboot again I'll be stuck at the ANDROID animation screen until Google stops being a tech company and starts hosting annoying cooking shows. But seriously... what's causing this?

EDIT: I'm including a log from DDMS hoping that someone knows how to read it and tell me what's causing it. I had to zip it because I can't add a txt file of this size to the site.

EDIT2: I CAN'T EVEN FASTBOOT FLASH BACK! What good is Nandroid if you can't use it???

Well I'm trying to give it a chance, but I've been having this same issue since 3.4 was released... I've been sending PM's and posting and searching and having found ANY help from ANYONE in this thread. I'm clearly not the only one with this issue and it's been 15 minutes since I posted all of my resources to figure out the root of the problem (and nobody has even checked it out). So I figure that if I don't get an answer and a solution by the end of the day I'm giving up on it. Sorry but I'm a bit frustrated.
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
15 minutes? Are you smoking crack? We don't have SLAs around here unless someone wants to start paying my salary. I'm sorry this ROM isn't working out for you, but I've answered every question you've asked in this thread. Please don't come at me like I owe you something, because I don't.

I looked at your log, before your rant, and I have some ideas.

Now, two questions. Are you using ext2 or ext3? And when this problem happens, what does the output of "mount" look like? Do you see two "/data" directories? If so, I am working on that (this can cause a race condition which confuses the package manager). Unfortunately I am going to be away this weekend and won't be releasing a fix until after the weekend.

OK so just to be sure for us noobs, if I am using LucidREM's script for symlinking my apps to sd and I want to use your modded update, all I need to do after installing it is disable AUFS? You said the apps will end up on the phone memory again, so if I disable union method and run Lucid's script again it should wipe the apps from intmem right? Or am I missing something (as usual)?

"Fresh" ROM install w/ app data

I've had similar problems with nandroid/fastboot before. I guess "wipe" doesn't really wipe, I mean there are leftovers that mess things up even after a nandroid restore (I haven't enough technical understanding of these things to go deeper, it's just a gut feeling).

What I would do if I where you (and plan to do when I get my new class 6 sdhc):

- backup everything using Backup4Root http://www.cyrket.com/package/com.bg.smsbk

- insert new formated sd card w/ ext3 partition (Gparted seams like the best option to do it)

- wipe the phone 2-3 times (!?!)

- flash cyanmod v3.4 clean

OPTIONAL (but I would recomend this step):

* edit/remove from BackupRoot/data (on sdcard) the settings from applications you no longer use = leftovers; you can compare the contents of BackupRoot/data with BackupRoot/app and see what's extra)

- after reboot restore app data with Backup4Root

- THEN reinstall apps from BackupRoot/app using adb install -r

- I have no idea (not tried it yet, just planning for it) but you might need to run fix_permissions.sh after that

The whole idea is to have an "as fresh as possible" ROM install but without losing all the applications settings/data.

Good luck!

P.S. After I get my new SDcard and try this I might post my results.
[G1 Android Development] imbonez9:
I love the ROM however I'm trying to do the Apps2SD now and it wont work at all, Would going back down to jf1.51 to do it and go back to Cy's work or would there be an issue because i never had the issue doing it in that. I did the whole "Then go to the terminal emulator and typed:

su

cp /sdcard/init.rc /data/

cp /sdcard/a2sd.sh /data/

Then reboot"

The when i would go into Apps2SD it wouldn't partition it. :( It keeps saying it did but when ever i would go back into it, it would always say it isn't. :( Any ideas?

this is what i'm going to end up doing i think :) sounds like a quick and easy option for a ROM with awesome features! i don't think i would need any assistance with flashing and converting then reflashing to 3.4, BUTTTT i've never added a recovery image so is there anything that i should know as far as how to do it?

To push the recovery, just put it on the sd card... then type the scrip in the terminal (then reboot)

-- If I install 3.4 on a card with ext3 already partitioned, do I still need to run the option in recovery to upgrade ext2 to ext3, or will the install recognize that I'm using ext3 and act appropriately?

or​

-- If I decide to follow the 'install v3.3.2 - let it auto-convert to ext3 and then install v3.4, is the link on page one to v3.2 or v3.3.2, or should I grab the build clearly labeled 3.3.2 on cyanogen's archive page? Page one link says v3.2, but I want to be sure.

Appreciate any advice in advance, and props to Cyanogen for the work
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
It will recognize ext3 automatically. The easiest way to convert from ext2 to ext3 is to install my recovery 1.2, drop to console with alt+x, and run "upgrade_fs".
