just wanted to leave another pre-lim testing update:

clock widgets wont add due to weather service force close

calendar is force closing when not even using it

google sync is force closing..

all the testing i can do tonight
[G1 Android Development] Lou2serious:
Okay someone please help!! I did appstosd and my camera and camcorder icons disappeared can someone tell me what i need to do to install these apps after i pull them from another build
[G1 Android Development] xOrphenochx:
Same here. Flashing back and will wait for another update. I did notice a larger increase in speed, but without all of the widgets I normally had open I can't be sure how much better it was.
[G1 Android Development] DarkNytefire:
Wow.

Major speed increase, Rosie seemingly near-perfect operation. The usual suspects aren't working yet, but the performance gain is very promising. Amazing work!

Edit : Apparently the clock application is a no-go for some reason. Force closes everytime I try to launch it. Weird.
[G1 Android Development] jj71787:
so far its faster 1.7 was incedibly slow on my phone

is it normal to have only 18mb of internal membory left?

cmaera icon dissappeared after i ran apps to sd

also powermanager app is gone

weather widget dont work it says tap here to go to app then it says rosie as an unexpected error
[G1 Android Development] mrfrenchfry:
the 1.8b seems to be running perfectly for me so far. Havent tried using all of the widgets, because i only use the messages one. Does seem more responsive than 1.7. Better wallpaper too imo. Any word on landscape for messages?
[G1 Android Development] wwwhershcom:
quick question, where are the wallpapers stored in this build?
[G1 Android Development] ComplexMinded:
the clock widget is now working for me.. just re-flashed.. everything going well so far
[G1 Android Development] RaiderX303:
everything is working good for me except weather widget keeps causing rosie to force close, no problems with it removed tho.
[G1 Android Development] PlatinumMOTO:
I had apps2sd and I'm not posting bugs I'm just telling you what happened I flashed to 1.7b and it was fine but while the phone was off the buttons not the screen would flash randomly so I restarted and pulled the sd card and then I tried to format it via card reader. it formatted to fat32 then I tried to partiton it with Paragon wouldn't let me had to delete partition then I tried to create a new one nope that didn't work now I had to test surface now I can't partition it at all no matter what I try do I have to have the ext partition on my sdcard for this build to work if I do can you tell me what I'm doing wrong?

and I also tried doing it on my phone itself nope
[G1 Android Development] cyberaddict:
Works great for me. The only thing that isn't working is changing the background image. Even Wallpaper_Set_and_Save didn't work on this build. Where are backgrounds stored in this build?
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
the current wallpaper is the only one included, you need to use your own from sdcard if you want to change it
[G1 Android Development] voiceofid:
camera is not functioning

when i select "missed call" from the status bar, it simply brings me to the phonebook, not to the person who i got the missed call from or the dialer. i have no other way to remove the "missed call" notification other than "clear all notifications"

clock is working for me with no issues

weather is working, but i am not able to change from Celsius to Fahrenheit

sometimes when i return from an application to home, it would force close and bring up the htc widget menu after it recovers

to me, it seems to be no major difference in speed to beta2, it almost seems like beta2 runs quicker to me, but the v2 can run more htc widgets on screen without slowing down

will continue to test and give feedback, thank you
[G1 Android Development] cyberaddict:
where should I put the a wallpaper(s) on the sdcard? /sdcard/media/ ? I didn't see any new folders created in either /sdcard or /system/sd. When I try to use wallpapers from my pictures folder, it doesn't apply it to rosie.

thanks!
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
you can put it anywhere, it will find it but just to be organize I would create a wallpaper folder
[G1 Android Development] Mi|enko:
I'd like more information on this. What this tells me is that I probably shouldn't run any scripts for recreating all the odex files for all of my apps. Kinda sucks, as only the files that were preinstalled remain odexed.

Also, is there any impact from the uninstall of various apps (all safe ones) and their odex files, without recreating all of the odex's again? Not sure if they're all linked somehow or not.
[G1 Android Development] custom374:
I have a good question. Since the odex files were removed to speed up rosie should we reformat our sd card seeing as most of us ran the optimizer script and have the odex files on our sd card prior to this build? Just throwing that out there.

Lots of love to you though you rock on your builds!!
[G1 Android Development] rukus:
Hi all, as i read in first post i should use latest firmware - is it strictly should be US firmware or my european should suit (1.5 build: CRB43)? and one thing i don't exactly understand should i root my phone before this ROM or not?

Thanks!

P.S. this is my first ROM change so please help :)
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
yes, you MUST be rooted in order to use any custom room, also for this you need the latest Radio and SPL+space from Haykuro : http://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/

Why wont the twitter widget work everytime i hit update rosie force closes?
[G1 Android Development] Lakers3408:
I stand corrected! :eek:
[G1 Android Development] franzyx:
i just installed this release and works fine with app to sd (i had to format ext3 partition and convert in ext2 because don't seems to work with ext3). After i installed htc weather widget and force close rosie ui. Why? Thanks
[G1 Android Development] skhy:
I pushed the HTC settings widget but get a force close when I try switching on the GPS. Wifi works, but GPS force closes everytime. Any resolution?
[G1 Android Development] justanothercrowd:
You have to mount at boot...reboot
[G1 Android Development] justanothercrowd:
Hmmm...mine is updating okay. Do you have a clean ext2 partition?

I will be updating this to support the newer APPS2SD which should take care of esoteric issue arising like this.

Exhcange is working here too....to the people with VK issues enable it and reboot.

To the people with IME force close errors re-download wipe and flash.

[G1 Android Development] psjames:
APPS2SD not there

I just flashed with v1.4 and when I go into the list of programs APPS2SD is not listed as one of the programs? Where to I get this version?
[G1 Android Development] xyrcncp:
Has anyone noticed that the contacts listing (People) only list either "All" or "Favorites" pretty much? It doesn't allow to select "People with numbers" as in other builds. Also the entry for "My contact card" doesn't allow a picture to be picked from an album. I get "There are no pictures on your phone". No big issue, just something I noticed.
[G1 Android Development] justanothercrowd:
Noted. theres a few issue people have brought up that will be address this afternoon
[G1 Android Development] Lakers3408:
Thats the way it is on ALL Hero Roms out now.
[G1 Android Development] xyrcncp:
Thanks. I kinda hesitated on posting thinking it may be seen a little off-topic, but figured it might be a bug. :D

You mean the listing of "all" contacts without the "contacts with numbers" options right? I wonder if that's by design, if it is, it's kinda weird. Then again, when you're in the dialer, obviously all the contacts that show are only the ones with phone numbers.
[G1 Android Development] kgood63:
im having the same problem......
[G1 Android Development] skhy:
Got my Exchange working, guess it was just on my end...sorry :)
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
Well that apps2SD app never works on matter what build i try it,first off when you hit move apps to sdcard it brings up SU then the app force closes. So used another way to move apps to s.d not sure whats going on.

bluetooth?

Is the bluetooth still not working? If not, justanothercrowd could that be added to the "known hero issues" section of your original post?

Bluetooth headset connectivity is a key feature for me. The G1 is a great phone, but it does not feel great pressed up against your face.

Thxthx for giving us all a sneak peek at hero!
[G1 Android Development] magikkash:
I have noticed that the video player buttons do not seem to function at all for me. Has anyone else noticed this with this build?
[G1 Android Development] mjb337:
to be honest this is a great build but more than a few bugs like for instance bluetooth dont work on here nor on SuperHeroV2 nor do the weather work unless you go to lifestyles and the camera force-closes/video when pressing some of the options its real slow as far as Rosie goes shes slower than a snail..lol..ya need to put some pep in her step..im not complainting bout this rom nor superhero rom im only picking out some of the bad bugs..again this is excelent work
[G1 Android Development] Grimsby:
The speed is impressive! However, i can not seem to access the Market. I even "chown"ed the system, to no avail. Anyone else having that issue with this build?
[G1 Android Development] RaiderX303:
for those with the force close on rosie while using weather widget, i have attached a zip with files you need to push to /system/etc
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
any1 tried this fix yet? thx

EDIT: It works! Thx
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
1.72 is like lightning. I really, really like it.
[G1 Android Development] Nismo300zx:
yea it definately is...and im just using a stock 1gig for app2sd and for the most part rosie loads up instantly...im very happy with this build...im skeptical on tryin out 1.8b would u reccomend it?
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
I been testing it for 4 hrs and managed to make it work very fast and stable doing it as said in first page: FRESHLY FORMATTED SD and applied the fix above to make weather widget work, dialer take couple of seconds to load for the first time as always in this rom, installed few apps from the market and from sdcard, changed fonts, other than that, Rosie load really fast!

EDIT: no flash player (any1 have flash working?)

Rosie working better without widgets running
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
I'm not sure yet. I want to try it, but the version I am using is so quick I am skeptical.
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
Even text's are super quick. Just like OEM 1.5.
[G1 Android Development] Nismo300zx:
yea its cool i think i might wait off on 1.8b cuz i gotta new 4gb class 6 from newegg coming in
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
which version are you running now?
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
I just went through the whole process collecting a logcat as I went.

I came from a freshly reformatted class 6 4 GB sd card.

The initial flash, update, and set up process went great. No force closes or anything. I was able to download from the market both app-private and app.

I went to do appstosd and did dalvik-cache before apps to sd. Anyway, after apps to sd (using the included app) it automatically rebooted into a boot loop. I'm off for my second attempt. Wish me luck!

EDIT: And I was supposed to be working today.... oh well, ROM Monday!
[G1 Android Development] KyleK29:
I didn't think any wallpapers worked with Rosie (I thought they were stored internally). *shrug* People got Wallpapers to work?

That's what I'm curious about as well. I'd hate to run a script and actually mess something up. I know when I run the odex script on my installed apps, it helps tremendously. So that is a valid question.

I think Twisted put out an "update odex" script which checks for existing .odex scripts and then creates new ones for the apps without them. But I'm not entirely sure. Could be a safer bet?
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
I'm currently on 1.72.
[G1 Android Development] DjRevler:
same with me :/ but im using 1.71
[G1 Android Development] kkozuch1:
Is anyone else have a problem with the camera app not working after they did apps to sd. I noticed that icon was fine right when i started it up but then once i did apps to sd it went blank and now will not work. The camcorder works fine though. This is on 1.8
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
this is a Known issue, is a Tmo problem, not a rom
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
same happened to me in the first attempt but after re-formatted my sd all went fine, camera and video camera works good, I like the fact that you can zoom with your finger anywhere in the screen.. NICE!
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
Just install the HTC camera pack. Much better.
[G1 Android Development] bbuchacher:
I have an issue with the clock program. I cannot open it to set alarms, will force close every time.

running 1.8b
[G1 Android Development] DjRevler:
wat would b ur best opinion on how 2 properly format da SD card? once we format must we have to partition it again?
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
what I did was just reformat my ext2 partition, then convert it to ext3 using terminal in recovery mode:

mount /system

upgrade_fs
[G1 Android Development] phatman81:
So far all my upgrades to JACHero have been clean,except for this. I do have it running clean now, just wanted to share if anyone had issue still.

I did a wipe and install the first time around and everything installed clean. I did a APP2SD (no copy) and thing got weird. I showed only 8 MB space on the phone and the apps were acting very weird.

I then did another wipe and install and then ran APP2SD again (but with copy to SD) and this time all is clean and no longer have the "low space" warning.

As for applications, Power manager has not upgraded well with any of the releases of JACHero so far. I always have to reinstall the app to get it working correctly. Also, where's my android is affected by the same issue (needs reinstall) and DynoMight Dynometer just has no icon, but runs. Oddly, AndroZip is no where to be found... With the missing Icons, i know if i uninstall the app, reboot phone and redownload/install, it fixes the icon and issues with the apps... I just dont know why it is happening...
[G1 Android Development] kkozuch1:
Where do you get the HTC camera pack?
[G1 Android Development] ulakala:
have u resolved your problem? i've the same
[G1 Android Development] Auctionedllama:
Jesus, this thread never ceases to amaze me. The same questions are asked and answered every couple pages. I think the link to that HTC camera has been posted at least 5+ times. People ask just dumb questions, like "What is da best way to format ma sd card man?" when theres like 10 threads and instructions on the first page how to. People amaze me.
[G1 Android Development] horrorwolf:
I had this issue when I tried to install without a reformat of the ext2/ext3 partition. You need to reformat your ext2 and wipe to avoid the weird low space warnings. You need to re-install all apps as well, as the config files are structured differently in this latest version.

JAC, its working great for me so far....only I would like all the wallpapers and widgets restored. And yes a few other things are force closings (Such as Alarm Clock etc). Other than that, this build is running great.
[G1 Android Development] halla29:
weather widget not working.

I know that this 1.8b build was meant to speed up hero and allow us to run apps and widgets more efficiently but for some reason when ever I try to apply the weather widget to the home screen I get this message " The application Rosie ( process com.htc.launcher ) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again ". Then once I click the force close button it forces Rosie to load again or If I go into All programs where my apps are and try to use the weather app instead Of the widget I get this message " The application weather ( process com.htc.elroy.weather ) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. I then click force close but it just goes right back to the Rosie home screen without Rosie reloading. Please anyone help...... By the jac If your reading this love the new HTC camera.

[G1 Android Development] xyrcncp:
Wouldn't it be best to just leave the weather widget out and post it as a separate file if people want to install it? I mean I know it looks nice and all, but what's the big deal about the weather widget? Every time I've flashed a new build, I've removed it as soon as I'm done flashing (along with Twitter and other random widgets).
[G1 Android Development] halla29:
Google Maps.

The new Google maps can never find my location even with my GPS enabled. By the way has anyone noticed that this new Google map doesn't include the new voice search feature like It's supposed to. Halla.
[G1 Android Development] halla29:
I like the weather widget. I used to do the same and just delete it also but at least it still worked. Lol. This time it doesn't. By the way I have all the HTC widgets on my computer already so I can install them whenever I like. I even tried to UNinstall both the weather widget and weather app. And then reinstalled them but still can't get them to work properly.
[G1 Android Development] dbhatesyou:
indeed... sometimes im tempted to just make the biggest noob guide...
[G1 Android Development] halla29:
thanks

Ok thanks I'll check that post.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
noob guide:

(1) ask how to partition sdcard

(2) make sure it's named "update.zip"

(3) Freak out and call a boot loop a brick.

(4) Find a nice xdaer to explain ADB and fastboot

(5) Use search button

(6) contribute

By the way 1.8b is working great. Now problems after second try.
[G1 Android Development] horrorwolf:
Agreed. :)

Too many of these noob posts make it difficult to troubleshoot legitimate problems with each build.

Download the .txt file and save it to your sdcard in "tmp" folder

Seriously dont just post a question without looking for its answer first. There are at least 10 links to the latest SPL throughout this post, if you still can't find it Google HAYKURO LATEST SPL, easy isnt it?!?!

Almost had myself convinced to stay in Hero land for a while too :-/
[G1 Android Development] armoredraven:
Wow dude. Thanks for all your work JAC.

I just installed 1.8b, putting the weather widget fix in system/etc of the update.zip, and everything is working flawlessly.

Speed increase is great from 1.72, which was kinda slow...

I'm perfectly happy with this version- I think I'll wait to see what comes out of the release of the Hero/ Lancaster... Maybe an even faster Rosie for the G1?
[G1 Android Development] xyrcncp:
The link in the FIRST page is not broken. It goes to Haykuro's Google Code page, where the SPL is.

ok, so I just tried to flash .71 and im still getting a bootloop. i even got stuck on g1 screen once which hasnt happened in months of flashing these roms. i'll try again without copying existing apps then reformatting. if problem still persists, i'll give lucid's script a shot.

can anyone explain to me how to get the vk back in 1.8 from the 1.7 i liked it a lot bett than the standard one. btw love the build and speed been updating everyday when i get home from work wifes pissed lol

Does anybody have anything great or not so great to report about coming back to rosie from say, browsing, on 1.8b?

oh yeah sorry is there a way to do the vk move without adb "adb" stands for what sorry not a progammer just a follower of hacks thanks
[G1 Android Development] chrisrj28:
Umm yeah see another one of those questions that has been answered on some pages in the post. Just take the VK .apk file out of the update.zip folder and using an app install (Astro, Linda, others) install the APK.

I believe you need to remove the old keyboard first. Search my friend, if you don't know ADB read this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=502010&highlight=adb+dummies

hmm gee thanks did a search found differnt ones for replacing apps and such just did not know if would work for an internal but thanks for the fast reply
[G1 Android Development] armoredraven:
Yeah, it takes Rosie a while to reload when going back to the home screen from another app.

One other thing I did see is that, at least for me, the phone was not running overclocked most of the time. I think the default high was set to run at the max, but most of the time i checked, it was only running at the default high of 384...

usually it means ur cpu is doing something wiered when u rename the file update.zip. i found a way around that by renaming it update.zip through linda, on my phone
[G1 Android Development] mrfrenchfry:
Everything still runs great for me so far.
[G1 Android Development] kvizz:
are you sure your naming the folder as

update.zip

not update.zip.zip

because computers like to hide the extenstions.
