i use acronis when creating my partitions and other are using paragon partition manager
[G1 Android Development] nleung:
I noticed that too. My phone went from fully charged to almost dead in about 5 hours. This was while I was sleeping too, so wifi/3g/gps were all off. With cupcake I can usually get at least 30 hours battery life with normal use
[G1 Android Development] bassbox:
aiii

i checked if i got newest radio, looked fine. next step i installed newest spl. went fine.

Then i wiped and installed the first 2.0 (JACHero2.0.zip)

went fine.

now i wiped, installed JACHero2.0r6.zip and phone hangs at G1 T-Mobile logo!

removed accu, wiped again, installed again, waited again for more than 10minutes.. nothing.

redownloaded JACHero2.0r6.zip, wiped, installed again.. still the same..

tried to start without microsd, still the same..

gnarrr, what to do?

r7 is being uploaded says JAC's twitter.
[G1 Android Development] Devnex:
My phone is reporting 100 awake time :( I think something is keeping the phone from falling asleep even when you press the Red button
[G1 Android Development] johnnylicious:
r7 is being uploaded by JAC

he said via twitter, hope this fixes more bugs =D
[G1 Android Development] jamizzal:
quick question johnny what are the codes to get the files needed and where are we getting them from ? im very hazy on that i just got caught up on bout 20 pages since last night but im still a little hazy on that. Or would it be simple to upload the needed files to make it easier for everyone else, cant adb push what u dont have ;) lol
[G1 Android Development] komposure85:
you probably did.....but with the severe lag your browser may be auto-refreshing and thus sending your post again
[G1 Android Development] jawash22:
Auto-rotate

I can do this in terminal by replacing adb shell with cp right?
[G1 Android Development] jamizzal:
i have read this too on my device are there any apps that put the phone to sleep to try and see if we can force it to sleep ?
[G1 Android Development] I am M3:
For those looking to recreate the ext2 partition, you can just format your card as FAT32 in Windows, then use MartinFick's SDSPLIT to recreate it. I don't see why that wouldn't work. You can also download SDSPLIT through LucidREM's script.
[G1 Android Development] johnnylicious:
xda is realy slow

wonder what changes will be for r7 gotta wait for JAC for announcement.
[G1 Android Development] xadaniman:
flash works like a biz hells yea
[G1 Android Development] notxel21:
Jac just said off his Twitter that something happened to the r7 upload and he is not near a computer at the moment.

*Waits till he is near a computer again*

[G1 Android Development] sxfx:
no adb with linux.

If im running linux, and since it can read ext2 duh, do I have to use adb to push files into my system directory if I want to do an update or can I just do a copy and paste?

Does adb push files in some special way?
[G1 Android Development] guitarfreak846:
https://twitter.com/justanotherdev

Apparently the upload failed or something.
[G1 Android Development] chrisrj28:
Yeah when I try to post a response to something by time XDA saves it there are already 5 posts ahead of me. I don't even want to try getting this site on my phone
[G1 Android Development] Stigy:
Are there screenshots of this build posted on a website or inside this thread?

Or should I just simply look at screenshots of Hero because thats exactly what it looks like?

Also does JAC have Bluetooth working on this? I am thinking of upgrading, but my phone is so fast using Cyanogen mod its hard to choose.
[G1 Android Development] dwelw:
update failed where it states "E:Can't chown/mod /systeme/xbin (No such file or directory) E:Failure at line 12:..." installation abort. Now I am stuck at the recovery mode and I do not have my microsd usb adapter with me. Is there anyway that I can access the microsd card in recovery mode so that I replace the update file???
[G1 Android Development] Infinite.Finite:
swap partition

So, I've been making sure to read through and not post anything unless absolutely need be, and I've made it almost all the way through this process however, when I try to change the swappiness it says "The system cannot find the path specified" and I'm at a loss.

EDIT: Nevermind, changed swappiness from the terminal. For some reason ADB just wasnt doing the job
[G1 Android Development] komposure85:
what is the exact command that you are typing when you get "cannot find the path specified"?
[G1 Android Development] Aquilo:
So long as the files are on your device somewhere, like say, the SD card, you could use cp to copy them to the relevant places.
[G1 Android Development] Scridgeon:
Did you wipe before you ran the update? I had the same error but it was fixed after I wiped and re-ran the update.
[G1 Android Development] sxfx:
Hey juangil quick question on your swap idea.

I pretty much did something simillar like you except I used swapper to assign the swap file on the swap partition.

My question is. With the swapper there is a known issue that if you don't turn it off and you mount your sd card through your phone, your card will become corrupt and you will just have to reformat.

What if you do it your way through terminal. have you tested if it does the same thing once you mount your sd card to your pc through the phone and then mount it back onto the phone?
[G1 Android Development] chunga:
I just made a discover:

on swapper:

swap place /cache/swapfile.swp

swap size: 32Mb

swapiness: 60 or whatever

I just want to say IT'S FAAAST!!!
[G1 Android Development] I am M3:
I only have one SD card so if an update fails, or I'm stuck in a bootloop, I'm kinda screwed (I don't use ADB.) So I keep a spare JFv1.51 ADP on the sd named jf.zip. That way, if an update fails or there's a problem, I can always drop to console, rename the 2 files, and flash JF. This probably won't help you at this point, but it's good for future reference. :p
[G1 Android Development] MonkySlap:
for adb *this is assuming the ROM file is in the same directory as adp

adb shell
mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 sdcard
exit
adb push [FileName].zip /sdcard/update.zip
[G1 Android Development] jooshy180:
can someone post a detailed step by step to get the music player working.. i dont get this lol

""As weird as it may sound it worked!

Just open the Music player, make sure it lists a music then press menu and choose the open to define as ringtone.

Then choose the type of ringtone you want and that's it.

After reboot sound works with MP3's""
[G1 Android Development] komposure85:
here are some screenshots from Johnnylicious

As for BT.....when it is fixed there will be a HUGE anouncement
[G1 Android Development] .ili.music.ili.:
What is the point of apps to SD? I can still install apps without it correct? Because it says the rom can still be used with apps to sd... but how do I create the partition on Windows Vista?
[G1 Android Development] xyrcncp:
Since you answered your own 1st question, I'll just answer the second. No you can't partition with Vista, you'll have to use something like Paragon Partitioner or a Linux Live CD.
[G1 Android Development] slimm:
Sound on phone is not working

Im not sure what I have done wrong... but my sound isnt working at all... from boot up to sound toggle on the side nothing works... I have gone in and set a ringtone from music player then it worked for that specificly then reboot and nothing...:mad:
[G1 Android Development] 2.0t03speed:
i just did this my self and i just got a huge increase in speed.
[G1 Android Development] juanolo:
hi,

i have install the last hero,

now, how can i have my old boot image?

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] Six6Sicks:
LED works when powered off?

I know the LED doesn't work with this build, but when I powered off the G1 while it was still plugged in charging, the LED light came on. Strange.

How could it work when the power is off, but not work when powered on.

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but with 428 pages of posts..........yea, sorry if this has been mentioned.
[G1 Android Development] Senorkabob:
Anyone know if you can use SDSPLIT to create the swap space?
[G1 Android Development] Genesis206:
Still Having Issues With Private Apps

This is my first post, but I've been following everything for a while. I'll be donating to all the great devs who've helped me show off my G1 when I get settled into my new apartment--money is a little tight right now. I'm in love with HERO Roms and this is definitely the smoothest running for me (and love that peep and the twitter widget work now).

On to my point...

I've tried chmod, chown, erasing and recreating an app-private directory, etc. etc., but I can't get private/paid apps on 2.0r6 version. Works fine on 1.84 though.

I'm still searching the thread for solutions by the way, just haven't found a solution that works for me (not strong with ADB, Terminal solutions would be perfect).

Is there anything else I can do? I just need Hello IM! and PayPal apps.

Any sports fans w/ twitter, follow me @Phiman_Genesis
[G1 Android Development] jrnnoruka:
I cant download Paid apps or protected apps on the market. is there anyway to fix this. and also how to do u move your data to ur sd card with adb. what is the code
[G1 Android Development] MonkySlap:
make sure Market.apk is in /data/app_s and not /data/app
[G1 Android Development] chunga:
OH YES!!:D although the info on swapper shows 0bytes of swap, in reality it's working good. If you ls /cache you'll see the swapfile.swp file there. /cache is cleared on every boot.

I'm adusting/testing swapiness to the better performance maybe 20 it's better

on swapper:

swap place /cache/swapfile.swp

swap size: 32Mb

swapiness: 20
[G1 Android Development] mrfrenchfry:
Anyone know if this has a chance of messing up your phone? Since its not on the sd, and if it corrupts then?
[G1 Android Development] gnunixguy:
it has been mentioned. the LED's dont work on the Hero rom because the HTC Hero phone has two LED's. IIRC there's a whole thread about trying to get them working correctly in the older ROM's that have already been released.

Also, for anyone else reading, this is NOT a complete ROM. Some stuff doesn't work yet, just be PATIENT while it gets fixed/resolved.

--gnunixguy
[G1 Android Development] Lou2serious:
If you have Cyan's recovery just boot up into recovery and repair "ext file systems" if it says error perform ext file systems check manually.

alt-x to console then,

<enter>

e2fsck /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

then press enter

then type reboot
[G1 Android Development] Lou2serious:
There is no youtube apk??? And notification sounds dont work.

MMS works now though.

Also after the auto apps to sd i have 31mb of internal space did you guys get the same amount as me??
[G1 Android Development] komposure85:
did you also create a script to execute these commands on boot? Also would you upload your script for this?

After upping my swap partition size to 32mb for this recent release (it was working fine on JAC 1.8r4 with 24) it is now working fast again
[G1 Android Development] nuhckah:
i tested this rom out and my contacts from gmail wont sync to the phone.

i love the build, fast, and everything, i just want to know if i am doing something wrong where i cant sync my contacts.
[G1 Android Development] midnite23:
com.android.phone force closes

I've searched this thread and saw no answers to the already posted issue (it was back during the 1.8* release)

Everything is working fine now. Got sounds working and everything. The only issue now is when I do the swap file, after I reboot, I keep getting force close of com.android.phone, and messages don't work. I'm going to PM JAC so he can be made aware of it, but does anyone on here have an tips on what might possibly be causing it?
[G1 Android Development] bassbox:
some1? ...... (10.)
[G1 Android Development] skyline0728:
how you fix the sounds???
[G1 Android Development] Senorkabob:
As far as the LED is concerned... I saw this in LogCat:

06-30 16:51:34.859: ERROR/SETTING_AUTO_BACKLIGHT(106): open: /sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/auto failed, errno: 2

so I went to /sys/class/leds/ and found multiple directories. One for Blue, Green, and Red (as well as keyboard and button backlight).

I noticed in these directories there are files called 'Brightness', so I pulled one down and opened it. The value inside was just 0.

I changed it to 100 and tried pushing it back up but I'm getting a 'failed to copy... Operation not permitted' error.

Maybe someone can start there.
[G1 Android Development] Genesis206:
I tried this, got the error, went into console, entered the info, it told me how many blocks were free, rebooted, still no private apps.

Tried chmod 777, still nothing.

Market (Vending.apk) is in app_s.

______________________________________

For those with ringtone problems:

If you put ringtones on your SD Card, i.e. htc_ringtones, some of the tones will work. Every tone from original G1 (Look at Me, Don't Panic, etc.) work fine and sometimes the HTC tones from the SD Card will work after a reboot (it's been random for me).

The best thing to do may be to delete the ringtones and alarms that are on the system. I attempted to but got the read only error.
[G1 Android Development] MTechRD:
Hi to all

I already installed this new version. But i have some answer for you guys!

- How can i increase my available memory?, because after the installation i only have 31MB of memory on the phone and the system is running too slow.

- I have a 4GB MicroSD card. What kind of partions do you recomendend to make to the SD Card?
[G1 Android Development] dbhatesyou:
someone has, and they created a thread about it...
[G1 Android Development] MTechRD:
Somebody can help me?
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
thats one of the advantages, having the swap in a separate partition, it wont be corrupted when mounting the sd b/cuz it remains mounted in the phone like the ext2 partition, the pc only see the fat32 partititon (pc's)

EDIT: what are your setting when using swapper? regarding the swap location? thx
[G1 Android Development] bootito:
This rom works very fine with this addons

Install swapper.0.0.6 (create the sd swap file and manager the space)

Install the OverclockWidget with this config:

- Min: 245760

- Max: 528000

Press the button "Set to it" and the widget change the speed

I locate a bug in the last rev. 2.0.rev6

In a wipe install, the tone don't works in a incoming call and others functions.

I think this is very important for a newers updates.

Thank's

r7

r7 udate i can t with
[G1 Android Development] Senorkabob:
adb shell

echo 255 > /sys/class/leds/green/brightness turns on the LED.

Now trying to figure out why it wont come back on after I unplug.

Someone said there was already a thread on this, I cant find it.
[G1 Android Development] Senorkabob:
Wow.... This site is LAGGIN
[G1 Android Development] Senorkabob:
echo 255 > /sys/class/leds/green/brightness will turn the led on...

Now getting the trigger to get it to come back on after you do it once is the trick.

Someone mentioned a thread on this, where is it?
[G1 Android Development] N3xt2N0N3:
I like the hero rom on the 2.0 but has anybody tried using the rodgers camera on it?
[G1 Android Development] Daf.:
com.process.gapps force close all the time, i love the widgets and everything else this ROM has, and i'd love to get it working but im always getting that force close.
[G1 Android Development] GaminKWB:
Same thing here. All google apps are missing icons and force close. Terminal Emulator same thing. Superuser permissions has icon, and starts, but is black screen. All downloaded apps have missing icons/force close. I was NOT running with an ext2 partition. Did NOT run apps2sd. I have a feeling it tried to on its own and therefore nothing is installing/running properly.
[G1 Android Development] chrisrj28:
Well this has been answered a million times but the answer is to just use a partition program and create an EXT2 around 500mb and you are good to go
[G1 Android Development] wizern23:
my gapps,su,paid app, protected app work. im missing no programs and the only one i have that doesnt work is pacman.

why is it tht the volume and music player arent playin for the 2.0? is sumthin wrong with it

I think this world would be a better place if people here would read the first thread completely before asking questions and also developers would put all neccessary details to make the builds run better in the first thread!! ;)
[G1 Android Development] Buster3616:
I'm not trying to flame anybody, I do realize this thread is 400+ pages. But if all of you who are having force close issues would have read, you would see there are commands you need to enter to enable Gapps.

adb shell cp -p /data/app/* /data/app_s/

adb shell rm -r /data/app/*

adb shell reboot

Any chance we can get a new thread for 2.0+?
[G1 Android Development] da-slicksta:

Anyone running this on a G1? How fast is it? (or should I say slow is it) Any videos?
[G1 Android Development] cidica:
you try reading this entire thread it's not always an easy thing to do. Over the time that I was asleep it grew 20 pages....
[G1 Android Development] QDT:
I agree but Devs should lock 10 first posts in order to have enough space for change log :D

Anyone can point me to the solution of endless boot-loop with HTC animation (2.0r6) ?
[G1 Android Development] GaminKWB:
Thanks for the edit. I backed up about 40 pages and was reading through them, but had yet to find anything that helped. Of course with that many posts, its easy to miss something. Will try this.
[G1 Android Development] android_geoff:
this hapened to me too

you have to re format your ext2/3 partition

i used paragon professional

just right click on the ext2/3 partition click format and choose ext2/3

it will restart your computer and when its done you wont have problems
[G1 Android Development] samethsom:
Hey, i have a question. How is the lag returning back to home screen on the

r6?

Cause i got the r3 working pretty smoothly, just lags here and there a bit, and from what i've been reading the r6 is alot more stable.
[G1 Android Development] QDT:
Doesn't work for me. I've created new ext2 (and ext3 too) partition using mkfs.ext2/3 but I'm still looping.

The 1.8b4 update went fine, trying to flash 2.0r6 over it.

<edit>

that went direct to HTC second boot screen (after the cool Android animation). Now keeping my fingers xxx'ed.
[G1 Android Development] wizern23:
mine goes back to the htc screen alot
[G1 Android Development] lionsolutions:
hey a good idea is create a new post,becouse this is so big.

also in the version 2.0r6 the music player doen't play mp3 files.

the notification sound and ringtones are not working unless you choose a m4a file to ringtone.

the rom in G1 work fine and stable but just a liitle bugs like the music player,g-sensor,alarm.i hope this guy fix soon

thanks
[G1 Android Development] lionsolutions:
music player and sound

yeah i think there something,but is you a m4a file you can play.

so wait until next version.
[G1 Android Development] chrisrj28:
Yeah the bootlooping is due to issues with EXT2. a wipe or reformat or remove and redo your ext2 will clear that up. I agree about starting a new thread for 2.0+ b/c this is getting well out of hand and the amount of posts in this thread is so large that it can be easy to miss something.

That is why there are so many posts here asking questions about stuff that was answered on a page somewhere. But I do believe the search button will yeild decent results if you use it on this thread.

But the questions that are asked that have answers on the first page are inexcusable, if we all read the first page anyone else can do it. But a new thread with specific instructions to only post fixes to issues and maybe dedicate a thread to posting bugs then we could make this a lot more organized. Or a mod could dedicate a few hours to cleaning this thread and posting relevent info on the front page.
[G1 Android Development] stogchris81:

bluetooth

So, just to make sure it isn't me (nothing in the issues) bluetooth still does not work?
[G1 Android Development] cidica:
Was having the same issue as well. Sometimes a reboot would fix it others it would not. Finally just had to go back to a cyan build. While I love Hero I'll wait awhile for things to iron out some more.
[G1 Android Development] cidica:
no its not you.
[G1 Android Development] Vision77:
PLEASE

Don't get me wrong I like the fact that a new hero build has brought more people to xda but.....Look folks read the friggin thread or do damn search....I have seen the same questions posted not only in this thread but several others....People have already spent time answering these questions and others have even put together tutorials. (hell some even put the links to the tutorials in their signatures to make it even easier for you.)

The xda dev community is about progression and innovation. Dev's and other fellow members of the community who have spent many hours finding solutions to problems and posting about find it aggravating when the same questions which have been answered are asked a million times. Why do you think the mods take a tough love approach to new threads. You can't take the microwave approach to the dev community there is no instant gratification.

Use the search function. Read through the tutorial threads. Read through the threads to see if your question was answered already. Quit being lazy as it only stagnates progress. Okay back to your regularly scheduled program.
[G1 Android Development] Wii60:
Thanks.

I love the build but I have to roll back to cyan for now. Everytime I try a JAC build though it gets better. At this rate, we'll be there soon!
[G1 Android Development] cidica:
While I agree with this I was searching out some things lastnight that were in this thread and search was not working. Just pointing that out it does not always work.
[G1 Android Development] bizz3d:
I second that. i have been watching and reading and patiently waiting, but this thread has become so DAM HUGE in only a few hours. i started reading when it was on the 7th page yesterday now its hit over 400, that's crazy. however to the defense of those with issues and actually trying to use the Search feature. Most of the time it does not work. I find it hard to find what im looking for. So i spend hours reading before i try the ROM. After a while you see the common issues and you deal with it until the Dev (JacHero) fixes them. Remember they do this for FREE people, appreciate, admire and most importantly DONATE for their hard work. Without them you wouldn't have ISH.

that being said have any of you had rotation issues? not one app will rotate to landscape. We all know by now that the camera works but with an odd angle, kind of flipped and skewed. If i remember correctly early ROM's of Hero had the same issues, however if you switch to camcorder and the screen works (2.0r6).

P.S.

Thank you JacHero and all Dev's for that matter for you hard work and dedication.
[G1 Android Development] stogchris81:
not to be dickish...but it looks like you didnt do a search. there are numerous posts just like yours and however true it may be, it doesnt help. and takes more space than someone asking if its just there bluetooth not working. and i will be watching my back now because your avatar is friggin frightening. :eek:
