I donno, I use stock alarm and it works well. What does logcat say while your app is causing loops. Keep in mind developers write their apps for google, not htc builds. Unfortunately it seems like htc has made some changes that render some apps unstable. I watch logcat after a wipe and while my apps are getting reinstalled a few throw some errors that I normally don't get otherwise. Htc needs to debug their sh*t better. If its something I broke, ill fix it. But I can't tell without a log.

fair enough :) i was just curious
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
forgot to mention

I completly forgot to publicly mention that on the MediaFire.com/soulife host in the beta directory I have v3 of this build completly odexed, it should add some speed and it also frees up 30 megs from data partition. However you will need the .2005 spl. Also the adp version listed is v3 but without the framework being squashed to make it fit on a non .2005 spl. It also Is a little faster but requires the .2005 spl for it to fit. There's nothing beta about the builds. Before I update I kinda wanted some opinions if I should continue to provide an odex and adp build as an alternative to my regular build.
[G1 Android Development] :
Just wondering if this is me only, but Exchange support isn't working anymore after I upgraded to 3.0. I didn't wipe between upgrades, do I have to?
[G1 Android Development] RLothar:
Soulife,

After about 2-3 days of use this ROM gets very laggy and requires a reboot. I didn't have this issue with previous builds, only with v3. Other than that, great ROM!
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
it says in the OP you have to wipe before coming to v3 ;) sorry for any troubles but this is a complete rebuild with the new htc updates. just wipe and youll be good again...

try switching to the "adp_update" or "odex_update" if your running a mytouch or .2005 spl. they can be found on my mediafire host in the beta section. their not beta though, their v3 but im not sure if im gonna continue devolopment with them, so i threw them in beta. v3 has framework compressed so it'll fit on any spl, but their is a slowdown as a result of it.

im very close to letting go of this build. theres not enough demand for all the effort so its really not worth publishing my work anymore. ill release a version 3.1 and maybe a 3.2 with some themes and a long overdue cure for widgets sticking that rogers builds suffer from. and ill finalize my odex and adp build as faster alternatives, but otherwise im done updating.
[G1 Android Development] cliles:
Your builds have been the best to offer full exchange support for G1 that are not hero builds.
[G1 Android Development] neo21:
@ soulife

v3 is the best version of your rogers roms so far. i am using your rogers roms for months now and they are the best for serious everyday use...and i tried a lot, keep the rom alive ;-)
[G1 Android Development] Zappza:
I say, don't give a crap about the demand!

Most people here either want smokin' hot updates everyday (cyanogen) or they want to be cool by using the useless Hero builds.

Your ROM is by far the absolutely best for everyday use. Hero is useless because of the lagging and the general slowness, cyanogen's ROMs lack the HTC dialer, full Exchange support and stability (afaik). Your ROM provides all the goodies, stability and the "lack" of updates is a good thing when it comes to not having to wipe every single week because of a brand new thing that screws up something somewhere.

This ROM is the only ROM I can say I am completely satisfied with! Please don't take that away from me, and the rest of the community that seek a stable ROM, w/ Exchange and all the other features of the Rogers' ROM.

Your efforts are very much appreciated by me, and many, many others!

Most people want cutting edge, they already have that from cyanogen, we want stability and a ROM that we can use for long periods of time and you do that for us.

If you feel that this project is taking too much of your time, please cut it some slack, but I beg of you, do not abandon the development completely!

Dialer

how can I get this dialer http://vivin.net/pub/g1_android/g1_dialer.jpg

I cant seem to find it. although it was up once . I asked in #android and cant seem to find it.

Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] NexVision:
Easy install a non-rogers build..
[G1 Android Development] yggdrasil:
Non rogers build.

Are there any non rogers build that support exchange ?
[G1 Android Development] NexVision:
Cyanogens have work email app which provide exchange support for email only but not contacts and calendar.
[G1 Android Development] yggdrasil:
Hero

What about the hero roms ? those have exchage dont they?
[G1 Android Development] NexVision:
Yes they have exchange they have a similar dialer though and they lag as well as having no bluetooth. Your call. IMO hero roms are a joke and a complete waste of time.
[G1 Android Development] yggdrasil:
Cool advice.

Well that sounds good for me.

How would you rate this rom ?

I'm pretty pleased with it.
[G1 Android Development] speedogg410:
i see this 31update thing in here....is that the 3.1 version and is it safe to flash
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
If ya wanna help beta test sure. its very "alpha", Its just recompressed a little harder (some png's are broke cause of it) and I stripped a few other memory consumers. Just testing for major bugs or oversights. I'm trying to make it smaller so I can unsquash framework and get the speed improvement. So far, its quicker.
[G1 Android Development] speedogg410:
it leaves me with 58mb internal phone space.....but it is very quick tho...
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
There's gonna be an odex 3.1 too for mytouch or .2005 spl users. There's one available for 3.0 in beta. Its not beta though, I just didn't know if I was gonna continue support on it but ill put one up. That'll give you full space
[G1 Android Development] yggdrasil:
Exchange attachments

I'm getting an error message when I try to save an attachement from exchange email to either the sdcard or the phone memory.

"Pleas install sdcard first."

Kind of strange anyone else having this.

I have an sdcard in there.

Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] springah:
rebooted? helps most sd mounting issues
[G1 Android Development] yggdrasil:
yep rebooted.

yes, i rebooted. and strange abot the internal memory .
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
Anybody else with an exchange account wanna confirm? I don't have an account or id test it.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Whatup man,

I loaded v3 to test for ya. (I have an exchange acct). NP's here. Either he/she has an sdcard problem and/or a config problem. If a reboot doesn't fix it ... then likely need to wipe (if other files can be read/written from the sdcard). ;)

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
Thanks man. I appreciate the debugging. Help is hard to find lol.

There ya have it. Try unmounting the sdcard and ejecting it, then put it back in place. You can also check for corruption, or if you have a 4gig sdcard you might wanna consider up/downgrading. It seems 4gig don't play well with our phones sooner or later for some reason. Also if you didn't wipe before flashing, that's likely a problem as well. Like enomther said, if you can read/write to sd etc, etc... wipe.

[G1 Android Development] maxawesome:
Ok guys, a little moderation here please.

Don't trash on the devs themselves. JesusFreke, TheDudeOfLife, Haykuro, Cyanogen, Soulife, and the others I'm forgetting (unintentionally) on this forum that contribute by building ROMs -- you guys are awesome for the simple fact that you're contributing.

On that note, I have to say, I haven't LOL'd as hard as I did reading this thread in a very long time. Thank you, funbacon, and those flaming funbacon.

I know English is not your native language, funbacon, and I think that's where a lot of the perception of you being overly harsh is coming from.

From a dev perspective, "wasting" memory on things like boot screens and widgets is generally a no-no. BUT, it seems to me that these custom ROMs are one part OS and one part Theme (or partial theme), where the developer gets the final say in how his/her build works and what's baked in. That's the beauty of the platform.

Those of us coming from Windows Mobile (like my dusty Excalibur) are well-acquainted with this phenomenon. It is the dev's prerogative how they want to build their ROM.

Like it? Great. Don't? Do something about it. Learn to build your own ROM, or *tactfully* suggest modifications.

Also, having several Vietnamese friends, I can say that the brutal direct nature of funbacon's posts didn't surprise me. However, having PM'd him several times over the last few days, I can say he's a pretty honest guy, who I don't think is trying to "piss on" anyone's builds.
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
Ill be working on this Rom again definitely tomorrow and Friday. Hopefully if all goes well you'll get 5 home screens, and some cyanogization (you know, aufs goodness and such..) by the end of tomorrow.

Edit)

Almost forgot to mention ill be tryin to slim this bad boy down so we can flash it without the "extended" spl. I don't have my data in front of me but I think I've already trimmed off more than 10mb from the original rogers, but I got some ideas to trim it down more.
[G1 Android Development] maleman876:
awesome, ill be ready to try it out
[G1 Android Development] funbacon:
More builds they do, more choices we have :D.
[G1 Android Development] Ignatz Mouse:
I installed this, but I don't seem to be able to get a2sd to work. I'm on ext2, so that shoudl be OK, right?
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
cyanogization is being tested now. im gonna push back the update because i dont want to publish something that i havent tested first. probably tomorrow if all goes well, but its seems fine so far. the 5 homescreens is being delayed for obvious reasons. odex optimization may be included instead of just being in an update, plus im workin on some other stuff. but when i close my eyes i see "base 16" from this morning. so im gonna celebrate a late april 20th and call it a night.... till tomorrow
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
i realized that i uploaded the wrong build last week, it will be fixed tomorrow with aufs, right now it uses symlinks. untill then use the new recovery image from cyanogen to achieve a2sd. (im surprised nobody said anything... shows how many people are using this)
[G1 Android Development] g1junky:
does anyone have screenshots of the theme?
[G1 Android Development] maleman876:
odd problem a friend and i both noticed.

sometimes the screen will go dim, then lock itself as if you werent using the phone, even when you are! even when typing/scrolling. kind of annoying.
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
Screenshots will be posted tomorrow along with an updated discription.

And I know exactly what your talkin about. It used to happed to me from time to time on thedudes build. I thought it was specific to that build as it hasn't happened to me yet on this one. Usually a restart would fix it but it is annoying. Updates tomorrow if my phones good to me overnight.
[G1 Android Development] bouyark:
I experienced the dim screen after flashing this rom without wiping. I was coming from another Roger's rooted build and did not consider it necessary to wipe. Since wiping it has not happened to me once in using your rom.
[G1 Android Development] setzer715:
I know the last thing you want is requests, but can you make a version of your soon to come update that doesn't have the 5 home screens? I actually only use 2 as it is right now. If not, no big deal. Still my favorite build thus far!
[G1 Android Development] setzer715:
My phone was doing that on JF1.51ADP. Maybe its a 1.5 thing?
[G1 Android Development] Ignatz Mouse:
Even after using the command from the recovery image, I can't do apps2sd. I'll try again with your next build.

I don't care abotu 5 home screens, but is there any chance you could add multitouch support in the browser?

Thanks for putting this together!
[G1 Android Development] maleman876:

[G1 Android Development] bouyark:
WOW. I didn't think this rom could be any faster. Thanks for the update.
[G1 Android Development] setzer715:
Lookin great, running smooth. Thanks for the update!
[G1 Android Development] funbacon:
Yeah, new version is very fast. I will remove moded Launcher and sound moded sound.

@ soulife: I don't know why but after I use ext3, my phone eats battery faster, when using wifi connection, right panel is very hot.

[G1 Android Development] PlatinumMOTO:
Just wanted to say that I switch from this and Cy and Enom's two roms keep up the good work we all appreciate it especially with the rogers roms I've grown accustomed to the HTC Dialer.

and this build is super fast for me.
[G1 Android Development] yggdrasil:
Thanks,

I'll play with it today. your saying wipe the card or the rom?

It is an 8 gig and I did unmount it and remount it.

I Changed the mail setting to store attachements to internal storage and it did the same thing.

I'll keep you updated.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Hey yggdrasil,

What we were saying is ... if you can read/write files from your phone from other apps ... then you likely have some sort of configuration problem in the phone. In which case you'd want to perform a "wipe" on the phone.

Also, if that doesn't work a reformatting of the sdcard may be in order as well. These are just my suggestions. ;)

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] yggdrasil:
Solved.

At least figured out.

It will only do this when the attachment is a .eml. All other attachments work fine.

Only does this for attached email files. Can anyone else confirm this ?

Thanks for the help.
[G1 Android Development] realjumy:
I think that foreign layouts are needed. There's a lot of people that want to use your rom but use a language that's not english...
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
They can. This build has more languages available to it than the stock rogers does. What I removed was qwertz support etc for the physical keyboard. It your the owner of a dream device with a physical keyboard that's not qwerty it will be mapped as qwerty anyway. That's all, maybe I should have made that more clear. You can add qwertz support back by pushing the kb layout back. I can make a post explaining how to do this. I know there's some post floating around already explaining this, I think there's even a script in the gscript thread.

To touch upon the current situation with google. I trying to see what direction this is gonna move in. Loccy makes a good point, why throw their closed source apps at us now? I think ill post a disclaimer before you download agree to be held by an end user agreement. I think it will come down to how xda feels and how determined google is to rain on our parade.
[G1 Android Development] gohaneri:
I flash v3 but it seems to be laggy htc_ime, any solution?
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
Yea, download the new 3.1. Its smaller and faster.. almost completly redone, again. I removed the framework compression (cause of lag) as well as a few more memory consumers. This will be my fastest build and the smallest rogers build out. Ill upload in a few... I wanted to get a disclaimer up before I uploaded it though.
[G1 Android Development] gohaneri:
Ok, i will wait for it. When it's ready?

Can i update without wipe?
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
Its ready now, and yes its a no wipe upgrade. I just wanna get this disclaimer written, and maybe finish the extended odex release before I upload. Themes are being worked on as we speak.
[G1 Android Development] gohaneri:
Ok i will wait.. as soon as possibile
[G1 Android Development] winiuloko:
Perfect Rom !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[G1 Android Development] gohaneri:
Yes i notice only a lag in HTC_IMT but soullife says that is delete in 3.1
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
I'm an idiot. It does support qwertz. I removed the custom varients for canada.
[G1 Android Development] gohaneri:
Can you send me a htc_ime version that you include in v3.1?
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
I'm gonna try out cyanogens hacked hero ime real quick to see if I wanna include it... but its not the ime causing the lag, its the framework being compressed. I want to release the update today, we'll see.
[G1 Android Development] Zappza:
Any chance of adding Norwegian language to your ROM? :)

Also, you might want to update the build-version string in build.trout.prop ^^

It says 2.9.9 in the odex-update.
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
Ill look into adding more languages, I remember a method for adding it from source but ill have to search for it I no longer have it bookmarked. And I uploaded the wrong version when I upped 3.0. All that's missing is the correct modversion, format cache in update-script, and on fresh install during setup the wallpaper is red before it turns blue. Its all fixed now.
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
I have a feeling I'm wasting my time askin but fuk it... I'm thinkin about switching htc virtual keyboard for googles keyboard, ill save 4 mb if I do. I can include it alongside htc's but I think most people use one or the other. So, if I remove htc_ime will anyone miss it. I can always leave the lib in the rom so if anyone wants to use it you could install it as a regular app. Let me know before I pick one.
[G1 Android Development] NexVision:
if the only benefit is memory saving i vote for htc
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
ill keep it, i got enough room already
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
update

version 3.1 is up. i removed compression on framework for better speed and easier themeing. all apks and pngs are optimized even more. i pulled a bunch of modules and ran the apks through zipalign. long story short this build is small and fast as hell. theres also an odex version available for those that want maximum space on their data partition and maximum speed from the operating system. this builds been running SMOOTH as hell for me, much noticeably faster and smoother than the rest. i hope the few that use this build enjoy, you wont be disappointed.
[G1 Android Development] neva dinova:
if i have death spl installed can i install the normal version or do i us odex version
[G1 Android Development] Boomgawd:
Thoughts on next release

"^port cyanogens settings tweak (modversion, ext partition space)"

Is this high in your priority list?
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
The regular can be installed on "any" spl. The odex requires the death spl or mytouch. So you can install whichever you'd like.
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
After I do a few things ill start messing with it. In the mean time you can type "ext" from terminal if you have a2sd to check remaining space.
[G1 Android Development] yggdrasil:
Installed.

I just installed regular (rebooting now).

class 4 8gig card with 100 mb of swap.

What is the benefit of obex ?
[G1 Android Development] Chinpokomon:
I was hoping that this or Enomther's TheOfficial Rogers would pull in BFS. I gather from the release notes this 3.1 release hasn't? Since I just put 3.0 on moments ago, I guess I'm going to drop back into the recovery environment and give this a whirl. Thanks for the update.

Update:

Hmmm, I installed the extended version. I didn't see anything really change, but I suppose that is equally as good. :-D I hadn't spent a lot of time using your previous rom yet to make any comparisons.

Error while searching for networks...

Anyone else having trouble showing/selecting available cell networks in Settings>Wireless Controls>Mobile Networks>Network Operators ??

Always returns "Error while searching for networks" for me. Seems to be stuck in the "Select automatically" mode.

Just returned from a trip where I couldn't select which network I wanted to roam on... that was with 2.9.2. Just upgraded to 3.1 and having the same issue. Soulife, sorry I couldn't post before you released 3.1.
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
Unfortunately all rogers builds are effected by this issue. We think it has to do with the way the software communicates with the newer radio.
[G1 Android Development] axlastro:
Widget "stick".

Very fast rom. There are some issues - widgets tend to "stick" - meaning they don't refresh. The battery life is good but nothing different from other rogers rom I've used. It got me through 8AM to 6PM from 100% to 2% with 30 minutes of talking, 30 minutes of WI-FI, 30 minutes GPS navigations with N-drive and 20 minutes of taking pictures (camera on all the time). Not great but somehow bearable for a G1.
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
Another thing that troubles rogers builds. Launcher is poorly coded. If you replace launcher with advanced launcher it will fix your issue. I've got 1 idea left to replace htc launcher with googles launcher that I have still not tried yet, its not hard but its a lot of work if it fails in the end. Its the same problem coolbro3000 is having with replacing rosie with a modified one. All of us roger devs tried fixing this but so far its been a dead end. But as far as battery goes, if I don't use wifi or gps I'm getting an extra 2 hrs of battery than I was before.

[G1 Android Development] hjlow:
just to make sure

since I already bricked one dream i just want make sure:

Is it safe to flash this rom from the new official Rogers ROM (HBOOT-1.33.0010, RADIO-3.22.20.17)?

i used this app to obtain root: http://zenthought.org/content/project/flashrec

and i can now boot to a recovery image that will allow me flash a zip file from the sd card. so if i rename this rom to update.zip and then flash it should work?

flashing winmo devices were never this tricky!
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Hi hjlow,

In order to flash this (or almost any ROM you see here in this forum) ... you will need to follow the below instructions for rooting your device ...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=544654

If you don't ... it won't "Brick" your phone if you try to install one of these ROM's, however, it won't work either ... all you'll have left is SPL/Fastboot and recovery image.

So even if you tried w/out the above instructions .. eventually you would have to use Haykuro's method.

So follow Haykuro's instructions carefully and you'll be able to load almost any of the ROM's found in this forum.

Hope that helps!

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
Yep, follow that. Thanks again enomther. As helpful as you are you should help me troubleshoot why my ion build won't mount my squashfs, cramfs images :p
