xyrcncp and DMaverick -

OK, here is the link to 2.3.6 from earlier today that is letting me log on in https sites.

http://www.4shared.com/file/116876682/35a617c0/DrizzyJAC236.html

Hope it works for you:)
[G1 Android Development] tinyaznboi:
?? its currently the fastest hero build ive ever used no lags not htc screen no force cloeses.
[G1 Android Development] CPR123:
I never experience a bootloop flashing JACHero ROM and am using EXT2 and always wipe. Never format card but once when I bought it.
[G1 Android Development] Diceman4:
You might try downloading it again and trying it a few times. I had to reflash one build or another a couple of times once when I got stuck in a bootloop. ( I think I also reformatted my SDCard also...)
[G1 Android Development] daonejay:
so i should try to reformat the card? what should i put the partition to?
[G1 Android Development] Diceman4:
I used 600mb EXT3 / 1400mb Fat32 and it worked pretty nicely.
[G1 Android Development] BombaMyte:
People -> Menu -> View, and leave either Google or SIM checked. I made the "Duplicate contact" option to pull from Google.
[G1 Android Development] edwinr29:
you have to resign the ROM when you modify a file in it, try that and see if it works

same thing happened to me when i first changed the swappiness, got stuck in that dreaded black screen, but i copied the one from the rom and then pushed to the phone instead,i gues the file properties or content is somehow changed when the rom is flashed, so what i did on my second trial was pull the file from the phone itself and editing it, it surely looked different, and that time it worked,

you could try that, pull, edit, push and reboot. and avoid reflashing...
[G1 Android Development] madunix:
i tried that as well just now, didn't work... =/ eh it's all good, ill leave my swapiness at 30 for now untill there's a fool proof way to change swapiness, anyone got ne other suggestions by any chance?
[G1 Android Development] itsruddy:
Funny, I have a stockSD and was running SlowSD on 96MB Swap, it ran OK. Could have been better. No loading screens, but lags every now and then, especially on phone calls.

Now I'm running with 64MB Swap, on Non-SlowSD and it's running way faster, and I haven't even overclocked.
[G1 Android Development] chesh420:
Well, when I changed the file in the ROM file, I did resign it, otherwise the rom wouldn't install. The last time I tried adb, these were my exact commands:

adb remount

adb pull /system/bin/a2sd.sh a2sd.sh

edit a2sd.sh (Dos edit program....changed the value for swappiness)

adb shell rm /system/bin/a2sd.sh

adb push a2sd.sh /system/bin/a2sd.sh

adb reboot

After it reboots, I'm left with the black screen. Any ideas?
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
Im pretty sure this build already comes overclocked and its been said that going over that makes it worse
[G1 Android Development] edwinr29:
adb remount

adb pull /system/bin/a2sd.sh a2sd.sh

edit a2sd.sh (Dos edit program....changed the value for swappiness)

adb push a2sd.sh /system/bin/a2sd.sh

adb shell

#reboot

try that, it worked for me...
[G1 Android Development] crr127:
anyone else running into this problem with the music player causing the phone to reboot? and it doesn't fully reboot just starting at the htc screen where it plays the music...
[G1 Android Development] itsruddy:
Didn't know that, haven't read it, mind sharing where you read that? Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
Some where in the other thread that had like 700 posts. But it said that the over clocking that high wasn't good. and that 384 actually works much better, i've kept mine that way and it runs awesome. even people that dont have a g1 that look at my phone have noticed the difference lol
[G1 Android Development] :
Ugh :( Oh well, I'll buy an A-data soon. Thanks for the reply..
[G1 Android Development] jamaljmys:
any idea how to use market through WIFI ???

please help
[G1 Android Development] itsruddy:
Thanks for the tip! So are you running an Overclock app keeping it at 384? Or are you not running one at all?
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
dont need to run it at all because when you flash its already at 384 from what the first page says
[G1 Android Development] madunix:
what's your swapiness on? echo 30?
[G1 Android Development] madunix:
max 384, what do u have ur min set to?
[G1 Android Development] rickyuknowme:
does this rom really run smooth do u still get the htc logo after using the internet
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
I didnt set anything on the overclock i just left it the way that it was because it came already clocked at 384
[G1 Android Development] itsruddy:
Gotcha, thanks for the clarification!
[G1 Android Development] itsruddy:
My swappiness is untouched, so yes, 30. I believe that's what it comes set to.
[G1 Android Development] itsruddy:
Can anyone direct me towards which apk/odex I would need to remove in order to get rid of Google Talk and the Terminal (I never use the Terminal, always ADB)? I can't seem to find them under /system/sd/app_s
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
data/app or data/app_s
[G1 Android Development] g2crx:
same things happening to me too.I'm on Drizzys update from yesterday.
[G1 Android Development] johnnylicious:
Google Talk the apk file name is Talk.apk

and Terminal is located in /system/sd/app called com.android.term.apk
[G1 Android Development] itsruddy:
You the man Johnny,

I had deleted gtalkservice.apk and the thing was still there, had to re-flash 'cause I think I had broke something.

And terminal, well, the name isn't really straightforward so I wasn't catching it.

[G1 Android Development] tinyaznboi:
A quick question about linux swap partition, would I have to completely reformat and repartition my sd card, or can I just use Paragon Partition Manager and just add that partition in? Thanks guys.
[G1 Android Development] Chance Ill:
you do not have too, but i recommend it. it lessens the chance of any problems. i reformat EVERYTIME!! :D
[G1 Android Development] alritewhadeva:
You can use cyanogen's recovery image. Gparted is included. No need for paragon anymore! :)

just drop to recovery console

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

rm 1

rm 2

rm 3

mkpartfs primary fat32 0 xxxx

mkpartfs primary ext2 xxxx yyyy

mkpartfs primary linux-swap yyyy zzzz

quit

reboot recovery

drop to console (alt+x)

upgrade_fs

reboot recovery

alt+f,alt+w,alt+s

done
[G1 Android Development] madunix:
regardless what anyone answers u, i'd suggest backing everything up and starting from scratch if u dont want ne thing going wrong. too many ppl are running into problems. just start from scratch with all 3 partitions.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please use Cyanogen's recovery image it is awesome!

First step for 2.63 is to setup our SDcard...back your stuff up and lets go!

Formatting you SDcard

You only need to do this once folks..if you already have 3 partitions including linux-swap move to step 2

You need Recovery image 1.31 to do this folks!

To format card SD card with linux-swap WARNING!!! this will reformat you entire SD card!!

You can use the recovery console and parted to format SDcards with 1.31 folks, no more going through hassles you have the tools on you G1!...here is an example of how to do this in recovery console using parted. DO NOT USE MORE THAN 32MB SWAP!!!

Example for 8GB card (this example plays it safe and will leave a small amount leftover regardless of the 8GB card)

Reboot and enter recovery

Enter console

#parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

#print (to verfiy we know what size card we are dealing with, the details should be straight forward)

rm 1

rm 2

mkpartfs primary fat32 0 7200

mkpartfs primary ext2 7200 7700

mkpartfs primary linux-swap 7700 7732

#print (to verify we have the 3 partitions)

Example for my 4GB card

#parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

#print (to verfiy we know what size card we are dealing with, the details should be straight forward)

rm 1

rm 2

mkpartfs primary fat32 0 3420

mkpartfs primary ext2 3420 3932

mkpartfs primary linux-swap 3932-3964

Example for a 2GB card playing it safe

#parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

#print (to verfiy we know what size card we are dealing with, the details should be straight forward)

rm 1

rm 2

mkpartfs primary fat32 0 1200

mkpartfs primary ext2 1200 1700

mkpartfs primary linux-swap 1700-1732

"End?" you need to place the last value for the linux swap eg.3964 for my 4GB card

#print (to verify we have the 3 partitions)

Next we need to "quit" parted and upgrade our ext2 partition to ext3

#upgrade_fs

Swap value is set to 30 currently, you can change this by modifying the "echo" value for swappiness in the a2sd.sh script

For a longer more detailed parted turorial read this

Flashing the ROM

The second part is getting the ROM on our phone

Copy the ROM to you sdcard as update.zip, enter the recovery console via home+power and lets flash, Check ext filesystems first, if it tells you to go to console to manually check do it! After I've repaired the EXT partition or if it didn't need repair I will now wipe and then apply the update and reboot...Done!

posting from my g1 the browser is really really quite fast i like this [: running the weather, messaging and twitter widget not a slowdown yet [: this is nice. and i see yet again someone posted another comment about having a 64 mb linux swap is faster than 32. anyone else want to upgrade and test it out?
[G1 Android Development] Chance Ill:
ive been reading threads all afternoon about using cyanogen's method to repartition there SDcards. i think gparted live cd is the easiest, most hassle free way to go for the noobs that get confused with the recovery cmds. :)
[G1 Android Development] alritewhadeva:
It is lol. And if i say so myself the fastest
[G1 Android Development] Franklees:
I have a question. If flashing to a new rom would i enter the following commands to reformat my ext3 partition?

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

rm 2

mkpartfs primary ext2 xxxx yyyy

Has anyone gotten the official Google Voice app to work? My phone hangs up before trying to call the fixed number.
[G1 Android Development] crr127:
ok so aside from me and one other person. no one else is having the mysterious music causing the reboot with drizzy's version... anyone have any ideas as to a possible fix? i think i might have to try and remove the music player and push it back. not sure how that would fix it but i'm up for any suggestions. not being able to play music in my car is kinda a bummer and almost a deal breaker...
[G1 Android Development] VGPOP:
I was hoping to see if someone can help me move the browser cache (and all of the cache of other programs) to SD card.

Right now, it's going to internal memory.

The reason I ask, is since I am using this ROM (2.63), I don't know if I have to download a specific file or what is the script for doing so.

I would greatly appreciate it. The last two times, my question has been ignored.

Hopefully I get lucky and someone helps me.

Thanks in advanced.
[G1 Android Development] itsruddy:
My google voice works fine (outgoing and receiving), and im not sure what else to tell you, it worked out of the box.
[G1 Android Development] Chance Ill:
as far as moving caches like the browser, maps and the market, i use TA utility. u can download it from the market. it helps alot
[G1 Android Development] CPR123:
Download TA Utility from the market
[G1 Android Development] otto888:
Using GV or the new official Google voice app?
[G1 Android Development] itsruddy:
i went from 96 to 64 and its a breeeeeze
[G1 Android Development] VGPOP:
Thank you very much!.

Didn't know there was an app for that. I'll do that right now.

Is this automatically? Or do I have to manually do it each time?
[G1 Android Development] Chance Ill:
once u have downloaded the app, you can choose which caches u send to the sdcard. i dont recommend sending the MARKET cache to the sd as its been known to cause the market to force close. instead, manually clear it
[G1 Android Development] rabidnerd:
long time lurker, thanks for all you devs and troubleshooters do.

I've d/l all (radio, SPL, JACHero) from sapphire-port-dream, and have "CyanogenMod v1.3.1 + JF", and coming from CyanogenMod 3.6.6 ROM

I've installed the radio, SPL, wiped, formatted multiple miniSDs, but can't get the thing to install successfully.

I can go back to CM 3.6.6 fine, though. Under which my SD is working with the auto A2SD fine.

The error I get is mentioned, but the only answer is "try again" or "download SPL"..

Formatting SYSTEM:...
Copying files...
E:Can't symlink /system/xbin/[
E:Failure at line 58: symlink /system/xbin/bb/busybox SYSTEM:xbin/[
Installation aborted.

Again, the ION rom on the page above and the CM 3.6.6 flashes fine, but JACHero and JACHeroski (with a different error about perm_something) will not.

Any ideas from those who had this?

I've done Radio -> SPL -> Wipe -> repair ext -> apply update.zip (ROM)

MUCH appreciated
[G1 Android Development] VGPOP:
Thanks. It's mainly for my browser cache, anyway. But it's good to know.
[G1 Android Development] larryhi:
I flashed drizzy's version as well and as soon as I saw your post I tried to play some music and my phone restarted itself.... I just went back to JACHero 2.63

dont forget to upgrade from ext2 to ext3

after you enter quit it should recommend file system upgrade

(parted) quit

# upgrade_fs
[G1 Android Development] alritewhadeva:
erm I wrote upgrade_fs :p the reboot is required so to remount the sdcard
[G1 Android Development] ariex:
why does my g1 keep rebooting itself after some time and it also freezes i have 3 partition set up on my 8 gb class 4 card with only 32 mb for linux swap and 250mb ext3. when i flashed this rom on the first time i never had experience lag, freeze or reboot but after i install some of my applications then thats started the problem. i deleted my ext3 and reflashed the rom again and still having problems (not exactly deleted but cleared up ext3 but still has 250mb).
[G1 Android Development] big nu:
oh ok i jumped ahead of my self...my bad lol, i stand corrected..:o
[G1 Android Development] alritewhadeva:
Lol no problem everyone reads fast at times :)
[G1 Android Development] markimar:
missed calls

We definately have an issue with timing on calls. It rings twice and it goes to voicemail. Not giving you enough time to pick up. The phone doesnt respond fast enough. So either we need to set the amounts of rings before being considered a missed call, or the phone has to have timing adjusted. I missed two calls today. Tried to pick it up on the second ring and bloop missed!
[G1 Android Development] tinyaznboi:
once ive created the linux-swap partition, i dont need the swap app anymore correct? or do i need to still set up swapper but place the swap file in that partition?
[G1 Android Development] kokob42:
Still shows Duplicate contacts, on gmail online shows correctly, I changed the settings in People -> Menu -> View. still same, rebooted also. and only shows 1 contact in SIM card. it is only the contacts that has Facebook linked to it.
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
Why do you only have 250 megs? It supposed to be 500 megs. Try uprading your linux-swap to 64
[G1 Android Development] xenoaurora:
So i got it installed last night. And from what i understand swapper isnt needed now as long as you installed with the 3 correct partitions. But my phone is having horrible speed and lagging out and taking minutes sometimes just to load a page. I understood hero was slow but i didnt realize it was this bad so many people say they run it near flawlessly and i dont even use a ton of apps. Any suggestions on what to do... i fell in love with it, but i can barely use it.
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
You should check your partitions. I have NO LAG what so ever.
[G1 Android Development] larryhi:
I would probably reflash, don't forget to setup your partitions correctly and also wipe before flashing... I had the same issue and that fixed it for me

before doing anything check if your swap is being detected, go into terminal and then enter

su

free

you should see if you have free swap or not
[G1 Android Development] moosefist:
What class is your SD card, if its anything but class 6 it could be creating your problems. I do have a little lag here and there myself, but I only have a 32mb swap which I hear a 64mb swap could help out though....

It shows swap and it shows some still free. In order to reset this do i reboot my phone? Like in order to clear the used?

I have a class 6 and im running at 32 although i have plenty of room for more if someone can actually confirm it works better that way.
[G1 Android Development] larryhi:
I have rebooted my phone and it does clear swap, and I had 32 for swap and now I have 96 and there is a big difference, well for me at least.
[G1 Android Development] takaok:
wow this rom is very cool :D

[G1 Android Development] jamizzal:
i had to leave 32 mb with swapper that space was going fast....no lie honest to the man above with 64 mb/20 swappiness i have not seen a load screen going home and the phone has been on for about 4 straight days now
[G1 Android Development] itsruddy:
Why are you still using swapper if you're at 2.63? It's been reported that a linux swap would work way better.

dude.. order a bigger card...

go to walmart, buy a prepaid credit card for 25 or 50 bucks.. pay the 3.14 to activate it.. then go online activate the card so you can buy stuff online..

then go to www.newegg.com and buy a bigger card.. they have 8gig class 6 cards for 20 bucks, and 16gb class 6 cards for 49.99 .. you will get delivery within 3days...
