Cyanogen Saved Me

It just so happens I got an 8GB - Class 6 SD Card today. Unfortunately, I don't have Linux and all attempts to copy my Ext3 to the new card failed. Paragon made some valiant attempts ;) but wasn't successful.

Anyway, I used CM Recovery 1.3.1 to backup what was on my phone and the old SD card, but I wasn't sure what actually saved to the phone, I assumed everything was saved on Ext3 partition, but gave it a shot then Restored it to my new SD Card. Reinstalled all my apps, restarted the phone and my home screens appeared (and work) just as they did with my old SD Card.

I know you hear it a lot Cyanogen, but thanks for the awesome work.
[G1 Android Development] painrage:
ok my noob question is and i'm sure it's been asked...

is the update optino in settings>about phone for cyanogen rom's and not the oem rom's

and also does the recovery image 1.3.1 have permissions fixer (if so what's the script?)

sorry if this is a little off topic
[G1 Android Development] andonnguyen:
I think mine worked (3.6.2 to 3.6.3) because i resigned the update.zip on accident. =]
[G1 Android Development] cidica:
it worked cause as you said you did not do a wipe. I just went from 3.6.2 to 3.6.3 without a wipe and it worked fine. It's installing the rom from a wipe that is the issue ppl are having.
[G1 Android Development] mrcrs:
at my house, i always get that i'm in buenos aires.

weird. even with wireless and gps turned on.
[G1 Android Development] Mikey:
Can this be done in Terminal on the phone?
[G1 Android Development] dixxa:
Well that's pretty normal sine it's like a portage from JF roms with adds in it's trying to upgrade to lastest JF build.

Just desactivate the updater.

If you wish to return to pure JF roms just redownload the updater it's available in the market.

http://www.cyrket.com/package/jfupdater.ui
[G1 Android Development] dixxa:
Nope, Linux distribution only.

It's seems it's not in busybox.

to check just type busybox in terminal to see what arguments are available.
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
No, the e2fsprogs binaries aren't in any of the builds. I will likely have at least e2fsck and tune2fs in my next build. You just have uncomment 1 line in the Android source to get them to build.
[G1 Android Development] Mikey:
So basically, since im a windows goof.

Is there any "easy" way of getting this done?

Or just wait for a future build? :)
[G1 Android Development] Sistum Id:
I would say just download Ubuntu, burn it and run the live cd. You can run Ubuntu right off cd without any installation. Then just use the Ubuntu terminal and input the commands suggested and your golden!
[G1 Android Development] sir*mez:
For those who have themed this build: Does your lock screen have the stericson battery working??? i cant seem to get it to work and thats the last thing i need!!
[G1 Android Development] fleshdeep:
It works for me.
[G1 Android Development] sir*mez:
ok, i must be forgeting to port something then... ill brb with update...

update: I got it to work but i lost my Home Auto rotate. what do i need to do to get that back. Yes, the oriantation is checked, it auto rotates when i open an app but i want it to rotate when im on the home screen. can anyone help me out with that???
[G1 Android Development] rasturn:
Ext2 to ext3

For those who have tried it, how do u like it? Any difference, can go back? so far my phone runs better than it ever has. "if it ain't broke don't fix it" i want to try but u know sometimes every thing doesn't work out
[G1 Android Development] fleshdeep:
I prefer this over all others right now. Fast and stable.

I also lost home rotate and I have not done it yet but I believe you have to adb push the launcher.apk to the phone and it will come back. I did this to get the HTC camera and keyboard.
[G1 Android Development] DreamcastDC:
I updated to v3.2 and for some reason I can't acquire location at the Google Mobile page it shows Location unavailable, all apps that use Wireless network first cant get location, but with only GPS satellites on it can my location fine. Help?
[G1 Android Development] SimonNWalker:
What happened to the TMobile OTA based build ?
[G1 Android Development] maubig:
This one feature made my day! I've tried dxtop, openhome and ahome, all of which this feature works. Unfortunately I was not happy with any of them (and stuck after paying for it :( my fault though ), and was almost resigned to learning how to mod the launcher and repack/resign myself. :D Thanks, my phone is now whole again! (after U/G from JF1.42 RC33) Now if I could only get this feature on an ION ROM... Speed and functionality! Should be doable; I've got 12 hours at work to kill anyway :cool: Thanks again!!!

Aloha,

[G1 Android Development] pshadey:
Could someone please point me in the right direction... I am wanting to update this firmware...but i want to know if i will have to redo my apps 2 sd (i use marcus appstosd2) and if so to what extent..
[G1 Android Development] mrcrs:
just flash it like you did with the haykuro build you have now.

a2sd should still be intact.
[G1 Android Development] pshadey:
i dont have a haykuro build (but thank you for your reply) i have JFv1.51_CM3-ADP and want to update to JFv1.51_CM3.2-ADP will i need to re-enter the commands in terminal to make appstosd work, i know i dont need to flash i just want to make sure everything will work okay.
[G1 Android Development] sir*mez:
ext3 works great. i like it cause i can use more that just 500mb. i feel no lag at all its the best thing i have done so far to my phone.
[G1 Android Development] ckessler235:
if its not there after you flash just use the apps2sd app and you will have it again.. ive done it several times already !
[G1 Android Development] dilfatx:
Won't let me download the latest ROM
[G1 Android Development] temporizer:
What he said ^^^^
[G1 Android Development] jay22are:
check out his twiitter

"3.6.3 was a complete dud. sorry. will have something that doesn't completely suck shortly"
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
Geez, you guys...alright...alright...consider the cotton nowhere near me ;)

I was whining earlier...it happens on occasion :(

Anyway, I expect a little hazing...:eek:
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
Please read at least the last one or two pages before you post :rolleyes:

Anyway, 3.6.4 is up. Wipe/nowipe works. The issue was a bad signature on an apk. I also added another nice treat for pissing everyone off tonight :)
[G1 Android Development] jay22are:
thank you...keep up the hard work
[G1 Android Development] ronyoung08:
thank you
[G1 Android Development] c2tmdsn:
awesome thanks! flashing right now :)
[G1 Android Development] Nesli:
First of all, respect for cyanogen´s hard work;)

One question, is there any possibility to implement HTC Browser from HERO roms? Its fast, nice, and the main advantage, it is Fullscreen :)

...
[G1 Android Development] cidica:
Not pissed off man things happen :)
[G1 Android Development] temporizer:
it's a known issue. from t-mobile.
[G1 Android Development] blueheeler:
@Cyan:

No one's pissed !

At least they shouldn't be.

Ignore the haterz. Anyone that works as tirelessly and unselfishly as you do deserves nothing but thanks and respect.

Flashing now.

Unless you hear otherwise, consider it a success.

Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] bloopblah:
flashing now. had a little problem earlier. gonna see if it'll fix the problem.
[G1 Android Development] NeoBlade:
Shall be flashing soon as well ^_^ Been following the tweets so tend to keep up to date with the news.

Thanks for the effort Cyanogen!
[G1 Android Development] cidica:
ok Just did a wipe install was setting up my gmail account and when I went to signin with it (still in the setup part) I for a Force close on the setupwizard process. So phone boot works but now I can not log into my gmail account and get my contacts rofl...what a night
[G1 Android Development] temporizer:
Sorry!

The application setup wizard (process.com.android.setupwizard) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

Force Close.

:(
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
I don't think anyone's pissed, amigo. You have the best Mod out there and it's worth the wait. Besides, stuff happens.
[G1 Android Development] cidica:
ok I fixed my Force close issue. For the people that use ADB just push the SetupWizard.apk from an older build to the phone and it works fine.

adb remount

adb push SetupWizard.apk /system/app/

adb shell reboot

once the phone reboots go and set it up from data sync in settings and you will be good to go.
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
I didn't wipe, just applied 3.6.4 over the last version of 3.6.3. Could that be why I'm not receiving the error? Or should I do something to ensure I don't get the error? Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] cidica:
you did an upgrade so your setup for your gmail is already done. new installs need to do the setup not upgrades. That's why you do not have the issue. but if you wipe your gmail settings my guess would be you would have it as well since the .apk file in question is replaced on upgrades I believe. So you are fine for now :p
[G1 Android Development] c2tmdsn:
I seem to be getting a force close whenever I try to change the ringtone.. hmm..
[G1 Android Development] cidica:
same pushing the old settings.apk now to see if that fixes the issue. Nope still getting a force close on it.
[G1 Android Development] jay22are:
life saver....this resolved the issue
[G1 Android Development] hamshu:
Is anyone getting errors with Toggle Settings? I'm using Useful switchers for now, but I'm just wondering if anyone else is getting errors. And my ringtones seem to work just fine.
[G1 Android Development] temporizer:
if you didn't wipe, ur fine.

i just pushed the setupwizard.apk, and rebooted. no problem.
[G1 Android Development] AustinKnight45:
Ive got the ringtone force close and setup wizard
[G1 Android Development] temporizer:
Love it! I love the Hero transitions too. looks good.

So Freakin Fast!!!

What, oh what can you come up with next?

edit: Spare Parts is closing when i click on window/transition animations...

every time.

edit: Ringtone selection Force Close...

edit: changing the clock ringtone is also a Force Close...
[G1 Android Development] grazy:
Yep, having the ringtone force close also.
[G1 Android Development] angelogiuffrida:
Force close when Google signup, Spare Parts and Ringtones. :(
[G1 Android Development] dilfatx:
I get the FORCE CLOSE on Setup Wizard..

Also it damaged my SD card.. after the install i got the notice few minutes later saying that my SD card is damaged.. hasn't happened before on these ROMS so thought it was helpful to mention..
[G1 Android Development] cidica:
ok pushing spareparts.apk and the settings.apk files (all of the ones minus the google named ones are not fixing the settings force close issues. So gonna roll back to 3.6.2 for now
[G1 Android Development] dilfatx:
Can somebody please post the SETUPWIZARD.APK so it can be downloaded and fix the force close issue..
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
just great, and im on the android screen installin 3.6.4 and just reading about the force close issue..smh
[G1 Android Development] c2tmdsn:
I tried pushing settings.apk as well from 3.6.2 and 3.6.3 and did not work
[G1 Android Development] cidica:
this is the one from 3.6.2 UNZIP IT. I zip'd the file
[G1 Android Development] dilfatx:
Feel your pain..with the addition of my SD card got corrupted..

Wonder if Cyanogen is asleep now or working on this quick fix?

Many people like myself can't get the setupwizard.apk to work or even get it..
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
if you have a back up sdcard you can fix the one you have ( if you dont have a card reader /or cant fix it thru the card reader )
[G1 Android Development] bloopblah:
ahh too many force close issues. gonna roll back for now.
[G1 Android Development] dilfatx:
I do have a backup sd card and keep my files backed up aswell every other week since I flash these ROMS so often.. its good practice lol

I just hope that I didn't have to do that as much but things like this simply come with the territory when flashing roms..
[G1 Android Development] wickednix:
Rolling back also as I am getting force close like the rest. I think cyan needs some rest or that strong drink from being up all night again, so he can get us a good sexy working rom..

Thanks for ll your hard work cyan
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
yeah im goin to 3.6.2.. bout to just go back to virtudude rogers rom.. just cause aint nothing wrong with it
[G1 Android Development] temporizer:
I was able to get the setupwizard.apk to work.

the alarm clock isn't working, and spare parts isn't working, i tried to push them from 3.6.2.

If i can get my Alarm to go off in the morning, i'm good. lol
[G1 Android Development] blueheeler:
Camera force closes too when you try to change some of the settings.

Ran into a UID error that I didn't even track down.

Oh well. 3.6.2.

At least we tried.
[G1 Android Development] AustinKnight45:
Ya going back to Ion 1 thx for the work done cyan I know you'll have this up an running tomorrow :D
[G1 Android Development] xidominicanoix:
flashed 3.6.4

tried to see if i could get the ringtone force close ... it works fine but just all my contacts have a different ringtone than the one i had set for them .. weird

scrolling thru my music seems really slow though

gunna just stick to 3.6.3 for now ;)
[G1 Android Development] damokay:
I upgraded from 3.6.2 without a wipe and I can confirm that I'm experiencing the same force close issues with spare parts, ringtones and camera settings.

I'll roll back to 3.6.2 for now using the rather fine restore feature on the 1.3.1 recovery :)
[G1 Android Development] bender2115:
calendar settings force closes

I'm getting force closes in spare parts, alarm, and camera settings too, as well as in calendar settings. I can change my ringtone, but I use rings extended, so maybe that doesn't mean anything.

These are not that serious, I'll roll back and happily wait for the next update.
[G1 Android Development] Sheldonjace:
Can someone by any chance post up a link to Download 3.6.2 in the meantime. I just happened to delete it off my computer and all I still have are 3.6.3 and 3.6.4 which one bootloops and the other force closes haha.

If not I'll just flash back further and wait but just checking first. Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] th4r:
FC's

Getting the same fc's here and also when I try to pull down a dropmenu in Browser

Like the one in Android Updates

Will stick with it anyway..

I already have all my settings set..
[G1 Android Development] ivans13:
Am I the only one that hasn't had any problems, went from jf1.51 to 3.4.6 -> 3.6 -> 3.6.1 -> 3.6.3 all withot a wipe and not a single problem? Am I just lucky that everything works soooo great and fast?
[G1 Android Development] cidica:
upgrades are not effected that much.
[G1 Android Development] jozomali:

[G1 Android Development] kevo:
Went from 3.6.1 to 3.6.4 without wipe.

So far spotted Force closes in Spare parts, and when trying to change preferences in terminal emulator.

I can live with that, cheers Cyanogen.
[G1 Android Development] JakobFriedrich:
what are the sexy hero transitions?
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
Only anomaly (starting with 3.6.2) is that the camera app is gone after update, and I have to manually install it. Odd.

[G1 Android Development] here.david:
Following these steps NO issues on 3.6.3

Get a working CM-ROM G1 as you want it....Assuming G1 has: CM recovery 1.3.1 and SDCARD has FAT32/EXT3/SWAP....ONLY CM, no other items as they sometimes conflict with his setup...so it seems to me...while I miss Hero icons, not worth the 'hidden' until later issues...

Steps:

Format EXT for clean install – (apps on FAT for easier installing Appmanager)

Copied JF 1.51 as update.zip to FAT

Copied CM 3.6.3 to FAT (I called it cm_update.zip)

Copied userinit.sh to EXT

Clean wipe within G1

Remove all folders, etc on screen - Reboot to Recovery

(I also did a clean wipe within recovery, to be safe)

Reboot, let welcome screen show and skipped the sign-in

Clean wipe within G1 (again just to be sure) - Reboot to recovery

(I also did a clean wipe within recovery, to be safe)

Update (to JF 151) - Reboot

Sign-in this time

Loaded a few apps (for testing)

I was able to plug and play three sdcards without any issues, all worked without any effort

Nandriod suggested – rename to JF

Reboot to be safe

delete the update.zip (JF)

Rename cm_update.zip (or whatever you called it) to update.zip

updated to CM 3.6.3

Why various issues, not error free until I did the following to each sdcard:

On working 1st card EXT had:

app 10

app-private 0

dalvik-cache 91

On other cards

app 0

app-private 0

dalvik-cache 77

Copied the app from the 1st working card

Copied the dalvik-cache from the 1st working card

Of the 14 missing (91 minus 77 = 14) 10 were the app for testing and 4 were unknown. As these were not part of the JF and would not populate the new sdcards:

com.android.term

Debugtool.apk

Fieldtest.apk

Maps.apk

Also, 7 would not copy over, yet were already in dalvik-cache just protected so not an issue. As I was posting this I saw Updated to CM 3.6.4 now out, however, following these steps NO issues on 3.6.3...will try 3.6.4 soon...
[G1 Android Development] innerspace:
Question regarding Cyanogen ROMS and Haykuros SPL

I notice that many of the HERO ROMS need Haykuros SPL to operate as well as the ION build, will it cause problems if I update my SPL to Haykuros "special" SPL? Is the SPL backed up when I do a nandroid backup in Cyanogens recovery image?

I'm interested in checking out the other ROMS but know I'll want to come back to cyan's stuff, don't want to brick my phone or anything and don't want to make it so I can't come back to cyan-land.:confused:
[G1 Android Development] cidica:
spl's are not backedup (that I know of) But I've yet to have an issue going from 1 rom to another either Hero or just a normal CM rom.
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
Spoke too soon. notification sounds seems to randomize - SMS sounds like Call once, then as SMS again. New mail like SMS once. Trying to change/look at the mail alert sound brings up force close of the Gmail application. Trying the same in the messaging app force closes the messaging app.

Something's not working here...

Going to roll back to 3.6.1 which worked very well on my phone.

<edit>Phew! Back on 3.6.1, and everything's back to normal.</edit>

/Mats
[G1 Android Development] robbie725:
ok got past the looping with 3.6.4, but I too have the force closings with ringtones, spareparts, etc...

peace
[G1 Android Development] jlaholton:
I get force close in ChompSMS when I try to change notification sounds or vibration.
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
Yes, all apps seems to force close when you try to change the notification sound. An also to play random notification sounds. Back to 3.6.1, all is well. I'll wait for 3.6.5, when Cyanogen has fixed these problems. I guess he's really tired after all those updates lately, and needs a few beer (or Lagavulin?) and a good nights sleep.

/Mats
[G1 Android Development] BolecDST:
OK I didn't have apps2sd before upgrading to the newest (todays) cyanogen (before I had Dudes1.3). I did wipe, flashed the new rom and I have force closes everywhere. I will try flashing the theme template. I did try to run that partition checker. And the last thing. In the first post there's an information that I should not run any other apps2sd program, because this rom will do this automatically for me. Well, I installed this rom and I don't have ext2 partition at all. I guess I have to use Maximus apps2sd app and make it on my own?
[G1 Android Development] binoslaw:
3.6.2

I back to 3.6.2 and waiting for fix in new 3.6.5. My errors was the same: Force closing: all ringtones (set UI and ringtone) and (after wiped data) wizard when U setting up google account.
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
For the built in apps2sd to work, you must have a small (I recommend 500 MB or less) ext2/3/4 partition after your FAT partition. If you're on Linux, use GParted. If not, get Parted Magic, the bootable USB stick version.

Cyanogen has clearly stated do not use any other apps2sd application.

/Mats
[G1 Android Development] machuidel:
3.6.4 much smoother

I will keep 3.6.4 even though some things are force closing (which I don't need at the moment). Everything is much smoother :o. Hope this will not be reverted when the force close bug is being fixed.
[G1 Android Development] ggrant3876:
My BackupPro fc's on 3.6.4.
[G1 Android Development] daveid:
Figured I'd give 3.6.4 a go (3.6.3 didn't give me any issues, guess part of that is due to my theming of my mod - resigning it - before flashing). I am flashing 3.6.4 - modded again - now. The issues others are reporting don't bother me much, at least I hope they don't. I took a good nandroid image though, just in case.

Though, 3.6.3 did give an error in ddms that scared the **** out of me saying that it was going to crash, but it kept right on booting anyways.

3.6.4 is booting now, I'll see if I get the same issues as others are (I am using some older files, like settings.apk - didn't take the time to port my theme to the new template, just grabbed my old files and moved them over).

Alright, booted up, no immediate ForceClose/waits upon boot, almost at idle now, and will see about other issues.

Posting error logs in new post. Rolling back to 3.6.3 backup - only due to contact ringtones being set to "unknown".
[G1 Android Development] question.com:
so my phone reboots as soon as i try to change my notification tone for gtalk gonna nandroid and wait for a stable release
[G1 Android Development] richpadg:
Don't know if this has been mentioned, if so, please ignore, but after flashing 3.6.4, clicking on an image in MMS for viewing FC's Messaging. Anyone else having this issue?
[G1 Android Development] beagz:
Drop down lists in browser cause fc also
[G1 Android Development] daveid:
Wow.. lots of other issues surfacing. For me all it took was the fact that all my custom ringtone settings got lost and set back to "unknown", boom - Nandroid restore! ;)

Try again tonight..
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
Tracked the problems down to a patch I applied to Dalvik, which I shouldn't have done in a stable build.

Expect a new release shortly, or you can push libdvm.so and SetupWizard.apk from 3.6.2.
