I don't know what to do

Okay, so I'm sure this is somewhere around here, but I've read alot of stuff but none of it helped...

I've tired just about every type of JACHero and JACHeroski. I only got one to work, and it wasn't the right one that I wanted so I took it off. Everytime load the ROM it goes to the HERO screen, sometimes the HTC screen, but keeps playing the HERO screen over and over. What do I do?

I thought I did everything right. I used the Cyanogen 4.1.11.1 ROM and it works perfectly fine, so idk. I want to use the latest or best JACHeroski cause of the flash but yeah...won't boot up...oh and I'm using the 1.4 recovery...

Can I get any help? Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] Fictionles:
No issues with 2.2b here. Just had to readjust my swap size back down to 64mb. Been running fine for me since this morning.

Of course I probably just jinxed myself saying that...
[G1 Android Development] Bzerk1:
lol, well i still am running at 96mb linux swap, so could that be the reason for the autoboots?(almost says autobots!)
[G1 Android Development] Devnex:
Is anyone having to wait a long period of time after pressing medu or some other button before the phone will wake from sleep?
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
It might not fix the reboots but it will run faster
[G1 Android Development] Fictionles:
Just to echo what miketaylor said, a wipe, repartition then a re-flash should resolve the issue. Another thing to try is to do a repair on your ext3 if you're using a2sd (might be redundant, but never hurts to ask). I went through a stretch running 2.1 where everything was slow and I was getting FC's everywhere until I did a repair on my ext3 filesystem and if found some file issues and corrected them. It could be something similar.

I always have to delete my apps-private folder when flashing. There are always about 5 apps that I have I always have to reinstall. HTH
[G1 Android Development] Bzerk1:
sometimes, and sometimes i get htc load screen and load screen aswell.
[G1 Android Development] domex2k:
so far so soo good i installed JacHEROSki-v2.2 - Experimental B, without configuring user.conf and it is the first Hero that i have installed, that does not give me an HTC than loading screen, when i hit Home button coming from a heavy website. Then i try it again but this time i loaded up my home screen with widgets Flipclock, Bookmarks, Music,Twitter, and playing music i was browsing, and still running smooth when i hit home button.

Every time i installed hero i never bother with the user.conf,and so i always go back to cyan, so this one i like so far, since it came as-is fast. now the only thing is why is the blue/red led light on?Thank you and Keep on the good work, hope you always include the 10mb:)

How is the JacHEROSki-v2.2 - Experimental A working ?? is is just as fast ?
[G1 Android Development] HighRidas:
been running 2.2b since it dropped flawlessly until just a min ago it rebooted on me
[G1 Android Development] 18.4009:
I didn't want to clutter up this thread with my babble but I just have to....

I am in the same boat your in except I am using version A. I have always wanted to run Hero but always go back due to loading screens...

I am trying everything I can to get a loading screen on this build and it just wont happen!! It is amazing! Thank you so much for the hard work on this. I am now a official hero user!

18.4009
[G1 Android Development] domex2k:
Ahh damm i will let ya know if it reboots on me aswell.
[G1 Android Development] p_pen:
My phone is still stuck at the HTC Logo after I flashed to V2.2b. I waited for 2 hours. Should I continue to wait?
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I'm glad to hear all of this positive feedback. That is what I was talking to Manup456 about. This is the first Hero build that I could actually use on a day to day basis.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
No, you shouldn't continue to wait. Recreate your partitions, wipe your phone and reflash.
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
The thread title says on what phones the build works on and dream is G1 for those who dont know.

I dont seem to get all these problems that people have been talking about and I have been doing intense testing all day and there have been a few issues but very minor and I could not get it to happen more than once so I cant consider them problems. I would go over the steps you guys are using when installing G1/MyTouch users a like.
[G1 Android Development] domex2k:
So Experimental A is working just as nice as B thats good to here. And i thought it might had something to do with 10mb.

Not that it matters to me, but is the Blue/red led light suppose to be on at all times?
[G1 Android Development] domex2k:
These are the steps i used and it worked just fine on my G1

place in the root of sd card

: shut off device

: boot into recovery

: wipe

: go to console and hit enter

(enter)

# mount -o rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd

# cd /system/sd

# rm -rf /system/sd/*

# reboot recovery

: now wipe again

: repair ext system

: flash
[G1 Android Development] p_pen:
thanks for the quick reply. Good news that When I decided to reformat my sd card, the phone go throug the HTC logo and ask me to choose the language. I think the reason why I needed to wait so long is due to someone called me when the HTC logo is still there. The phone call may mess up something. But it is good that the phone is good to go now.
[G1 Android Development] amirnew:
I had randomaly reboots on thr 2.2b version.

Got 64mb linux swap partition and everything was done right...

[G1 Android Development] domex2k:
No prob p_pen
[G1 Android Development] Fictionles:
Only when its charging.
[G1 Android Development] kolyan:
using MT3G with version A and 64 swap and ext4

black screen twice already after ended a phone call and after plugged into PC. Also had an issue with WIFI and 3G not working, had to restart. had 2 FC in widgets > shortcut > people

edit: 3rd FC TouchFlow error
[G1 Android Development] domex2k:
Damm well it stays lit regardless if im charging or not,well with performance like this is does not really matter,just hope its not effecting the battery or anything else.

Edit: just rebooted phone and it turned off
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
I would reflash and if you get a HeroLED.apk FC you need to remove that app from the phone there is a fix but there is no sapphire folder and its really not needed anyway since the leds are working.

People widget you will get a FC when adding a new contact if you do a people search because that is still being worked on if you just scroll down the list and add its fine search is really not needed on the MT3G because there is the search button on the phone that brings it up no matter what screen your on. And i tried the widget and did not get it.

Why are using ext4 I recommend using ext3 because I use it and get no black screens,also did you format that partition?

The Wifi and 3G problem have not seen so yeah try the reformat and flash again and see if you get the same problems.
[G1 Android Development] phillip_hooper:
Do you recommend using swap instead of cc on the MT3G?
[G1 Android Development] 18.4009:
Noooo.... Has been working flawlessly since I flashed it and now I have had two random reboots. One after I hung up and phone call and another while it was asleep. Damn! Searched for random reboots, that brought up a ton of posts hahaha.

[G1 Android Development] anselmo65:
Awesome update JAC. This rom seems to be extremely fast! I like the images, and animations from Drizzy's Blur Rom, so I decided to try to push them to this rom. So far it has worked great! If you want the blur stuff (animations, lockscreen, images) just push the framework-res.apk and com.htc.resources.apk from drizzy's rom to /system/framework/ - then reboot, and enjoy! Thanks to drizzy for the custom blur stuff, and all the dev's on this board !
[G1 Android Development] kolyan:
will remove HeroLED.apk. i do get FC on that as well, but that was on my previous rom as well so its no biggy.

why am i using ext4........don't know :) ROM change log says it supports it.

oh yeah......and i did wipe and reformat all partitions.....will see if i get the WIFI, 3G error again....
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
How are you guys mounting /system in Terminal? It doesn't use the same commands as Cupcake-based ROMs apparently (i.e. mount -o rw,remount /system)..
[G1 Android Development] crr127:
so do we have any comparisons?? is it any faster or more stable that 2.1??? or king's or mlign's?
[G1 Android Development] mylostlonelysoul:
Is it safe to use a 1gb card with the hero rom, like giving it the 3 partitons?

I was in the middle of doing it with a 2gb but I think I fried it so, I have to resort to the 1gb for now..please help?
[G1 Android Development] nolimit78:
Not recommended but you can if you'd like. I've heard of people using the stock card and having no problems. But I tried it and it sucked something fierce.
[G1 Android Development] mylostlonelysoul:
Okay, this may be a stupid question but whatever...

Can I just load the JACHeroski on to the sd card rename it update and load it and have it work? or does it have to be partition and all that stuff?

I have the new SPL, Radio, and Cynaogen 1.4...
[G1 Android Development] gucy:
So far so soo good i installed JacHEROSki-v2.2 - Experimental B

Has been working flawlessly since I flashed it and now I have had two random reboots

Can't seem to change wallpaper or access my photo gallery with 2.2B. I'm going to flash 2.2A to see if I have the same issues. I'm using tmo blk g1 w/ 4gb class 2 sdhc. Will report back once done...

*Update*

I just power cycled my phone twice and it seems to be working fine now. I really wanted to use v2.2B for the RAM increase. Will continue to look for any other issues. Good job to all developers. Will keep an eye out for bluetooth, LOL!
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
@phillip_hooper

What do you meen? I alway use linux-swap ill brake down what to do for all on MT3G same steps for G1.

@miketaylor00

I was waiting on you for permission to post this user.conf but you never got back kick my ars later and ill take it down for sure. I hope you dont get mad our friendship means more to me than this post. :D

This is how I install my builds and have it running as smooth as I do if your not sure you can do all this dont try I do it and my phone runs sweet. But I will not take blame for people messing up there phones because they dont know what there doing.
[G1 Android Development] Exilim809:
for some reason roise it not as fast/smooth

while moving around on the home screen compare to other

builds (modaco, kings,drizzy,and even MLIg) even Jac.1.7r2

I repartition , repair , wipe , flash and still ....
[G1 Android Development] :
This user.conf file doesn't work for me. I get loading screens everywheeeere. As opposed to my usual settings, using which I get none...
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
New Update Coming

Cyrowski added a new patch for BFS right before A and B were posted. It's not as fast as some of the stuff I was testing before that. We wanted to have the latest BFS but sometimes the latest isn't always the best. He will be uploading another build that is even faster than the current builds. You can continue to use A and B if you want to but there will be another option that should help out those who are having performance issues.

Also, we are looking into the random reboot issue. If anyone has any logcat or kernel logs send them my way.

He will also be adding support for 32A phones.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I've got a better build coming for you. It works much better on the G1. If you have your swap set at 64MB it will be fast.

Edit: BTW, if you are getting loading screens, you didn't flash it right or there is something wrong with your phone. Even though this build is a little slower, I never get any loading screens. The only time you should is if you hit the home button with your keyboard out.
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
Here read this "I also have user.conf I use on my MT3G and I love it and it was done by Miketaylor00 which is larger than the one in the build but does not work well on the G1 so you can try but at your own risk".

And this is in that guide.
[G1 Android Development] domex2k:
That was the only time, i got a loading screen, learn my lesson.

But i don get it, i did not edit my user.conf at all and its working just fine, for the very fist time i dont get loading screens. so why some people are getting loading screens when, even though they edit user.conf
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
This hero kicks donkey!!!

just flashed 2.2b and its fast, and i only have class4 card...

havent seen a loading screen yet.. gonna check the browser in a few.. but it works good with the Class4 card
[G1 Android Development] djnutz:
Have 2.1 and the Blur framework is awesome. Just don't like the white status bar, and dark buttons with black text. Hard to read, but runs perfect, think Ill wait for the next update.
[G1 Android Development] icpeanuts:
The LED does not work

Great ROM, so far, it is working wonderfully. I have not experience the reboot issue others have experienced. Thanks for all the hard work.

I do have a question, been searching for an answer, but could not find one.

Has the LED been fix yet? LEDs does not seem to work at all. Right now, when I charge the G1, it shows purple.

I read pieces here and there about various hacks. Can someone let me know if there is something that works.

I want to be able to see if I missed a phone call or a new email/message came in. Thanks..
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
push which files from the g7 folder... the camcorder with no sound is the only bug that ive found so far

*nevermind i figured it out.. had to delete the desktop off the adb instructions
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
They are getting loading screens BECAUSE they edited their user.conf. I even posted benchmark results and people still don't believe me. If you won't listen to my recommendations, don't complain that the ROM doesn't perform well. A and B are faster than just about any other Hero ROM out there. And the ones being posted later should be even faster.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Any G1 users want to test out a rom? Download it here. The link will expire in 20 min. Let me know what you think.

...jacheroski2.2r4.zip

Edit: Wifi and Acceleromter will not work for Mytouch users but you can test it if you want to. We decided to let a few people try it out before we post it. See my other post a couple posts down from this one for some more instructions.
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
no userconf file, just flashed it with 128mb linux swap partition.. but this rom works great.. just fixed the audio on camcorder...

which one is the best one for this rom, im using v2..

so far everything works except for Plurk.. gonna see if i can get it to work
[G1 Android Development] palosjr:
i am flashing now, what all you wanting other than logs of items that arent working?
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Make sure you drop this user.conf in. Also, go to terminal and type in the following.

su
rwsystem
rm -r /system/app/Jbed.apk
rm -r /data/data/*jbed

Let me know how it performs and if you get any errors.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
It doesn't matter which one you use for the ROM, but I have used V7 and it works pretty well.
[G1 Android Development] triniscorpio:
my signal (for making calls etc.) keeps coming and going even since i flashed 2.2b. dont want to blame it on the rom as it might just be problems with service in my area. but anyway to know for sure?

edit: guess it was just service in my area. everything is back to normal
[G1 Android Development] dohon:
Do i put the user in root? Then put the code in?
[G1 Android Development] icpeanuts:
Do I need to wipe, format ext3 etc.. to install this ROM coming from Jacheroski 2.2?
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Yes, you do.
[G1 Android Development] HighRidas:
transition from portrait to landscape are practically flawless no lag or loadscreen....have hd 1or2 more reboots and a touchflo force close but still very fast and no other problems mite try 2.2a later tonite
[G1 Android Development] mylostlonelysoul:
:eek:I just flashed 2.2 on my G1, first time root and first rom, so I was just wondering if it's supposed to have really low internal memory after that. I can get like 1 app from market and after that insufficent stoarge space?

IT's kinda stupid I know.

:confused::eek::confused:
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
YOu need to setup an ext partition. Read the first post.
[G1 Android Development] Introspektive:
This is the only hero rom I bother to flash, You guys got a good thing going. Very nice work. I'm running 2.2a and its running pretty darn good, Havent had any random reboots or fore closes that arnt an already known error.
[G1 Android Development] FAMBOLUGA:
2.2r4 is running very smooth with the user.conf you supplied. did a bit of tinkering and no loading screens of FC. no lag even smoother with the overclock widget keeping the cpu maxed while the screen is on. like stated earlier the switch from portrait to landscape is very quick and smooth (my biggest hero complaint), well see how well that holds up once my sms inbox gets populated.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
2.2r4 uses an awesom version of BFS. Manup456 and I tried to slow it down and we couldn't. I had every browser window open, gtalk, gmail, pandora radio, 4 other apps and the music on the radio never skipped. Not only is it fast but the multitasking on it is insane. I'm testing the updated "r4" that will go to you guys tomorrow if no one finds problems. I'd have to say it's even a little faster than the one you are testing.

Oh and thanks for testing it for me.
[G1 Android Development] icpeanuts:
Is the sliding keyboard bug fixed? (My biggest hero complaint G1) and the LEDs

All in all, great work and the future looks brighter with every update.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
No, but there are some fixes that people are working on that might be included soon. The LEDs partially work. We use Twisteds fix for it and it has some issues, like the LED turning purple when you plug it in.
[G1 Android Development] mylostlonelysoul:
I have

FAT 32

EXT 3

Linux-swap

what more do I need to do?

Oh and when I go to the app manager it says 76/89, I think I have 76 free or is that used I forget?
[G1 Android Development] icpeanuts:
I want to get into this project. Can you recommend where I can get started. Some links that will help me learn this stuff. I am a programmer at heart/school. Thanks
[G1 Android Development] FAMBOLUGA:
the keyboard thing drives me nuts, i posted awhile ago on twisted's page but if there was a way to open your sms inbox instead of opening rosie when you flip it open when its in sleep mode, that would save me some headaches. i have a bad habbit of pulling it out and flipping it open when i get a sms notification.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I've just been digging into it and trying to learn as much as I can. I have a long way to go before I am where JAC or Cyrowski or the other top devs are at. These will help you get setup.

[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
You should have apps2sd working then. I'm not sure what you mean by 76/89. App manager just lists the apps. Go to Menu -> Settings -> SD & Phone Storage -> Internal Storage. How much memory does it say that you have there?
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I have 2 other people testing 2.2r4 other than the ones who have posted on this thread. They both have said that it is extremely fast and smooth. Much better than 2.2 A or B. So far everyone who has tried it thinks it is good.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Try using Handcent SMS. It has an SMS popup feature. I have the same habit and this way it catches on the popup and I can enter the text in the quick reply window even though it stays in portrait mode on Hero. Then I just have to make sure I close the keyboard when I'm done with the quick reply.
[G1 Android Development] cmsweet21:
wer can i download Handcent SMS?
[G1 Android Development] mylostlonelysoul:
OH. I got the Apps MAnager of market..but anyways..it says...Available space 76mb...I tried downloading other stuff again but still same results. Oh and when I did the ah /system/bin/swap -s is says apps2sd=0...is that bad?
[G1 Android Development] lakerfan123:
hey miketaylor!

this is my first post.. ive been following your hero rom for a few days, so im a newbie... haha

okay.. i used the unlockr's method of rooting and have successfully flashed v2.1 on my g1... i have changed ext2 to ext3, but im just not understanding how this swap thing works. where do i get this swap feature. When i was rooting, i did format my phone with 3 partitions: main thing, ext2 (changed to 3), and linux swap.

is my phone swapping on its own or do i somehow need to turn it on?

After reading the reviews of 2.2, im very excited to flash to it, cuz i hatee that loading screen! :) So please help me out so that i can run ur awesome rom rly soon! :)
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
You can download it off the market. It is my favorite SMS app by far.

http://www.handcent.com/
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Thanks. I am just part of the team. The ROM really belongs to JAC and Cyrowski. If you have everything setup like you said it should be swapping already. You can run these commands from terminal to see if it is swapping.

su
cat /proc/swaps
rzscontrol /dev/block/ramzswap0 -s

The first one is for swapping. The second one is for Compcache. If they return numbers and you don't see the word error it is probably running ok.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
76 MB is plenty of internal storage. You aren't running out of room on your phone. How big is your ext partition? What is the exact error message?
[G1 Android Development] mylostlonelysoul:
That's what I was saying.

EXT3.

I'm using a 2gb card but i don't think thats my prob.

in the notification bar..installation unsuccessful..

*click it*Window pops up*

Installation Error

Insufficent Storage available

oh and when I did the SH /system/bin/ -s or whatever it was it said "apps2sd=0" if that means anything.
[G1 Android Development] Loccy:
The B version doesn't seem to be giving me the additional RAM on my Magic. Free is reporting

total used free shared buffers
Mem: 97904 96576 1328 0 332
Swap: 64252 18084 46168
Total: 162156 114660 47496

Am going to flash A and check that out - not much point having a hacked (and for many people, suspect!) kernel if I'm not getting the benefit.

Oh, and my browser works fine on this if you push it before first boot. No multitouch in it though - is the Hero kernel's multitouch different to the one the Cyan kernels use or something?
[G1 Android Development] icpeanuts:
Thanks Mike for all your updates/Info and help.

Does the feature to Sync with Outlook work? I saw the option in Data Synchronization settings for syncing with PC, option for Outlook. This would be sorta useful.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Ok, my bad. If you ext partition was full you could be running out of space that way. You can use the df command in terminal to see how full it is. Look for the line that says /system/sd and see how much is available. If you have memory there then you should try clearing your browser cache and market cache.
