[G1 Android Development] johnnylicious:
quick question :P

why is there two LED lights on the hero?

is one for charging and the other for notifications?

and there's one behind the trackball

seems alot of lights for the hero lol

Did you use paragon?
[G1 Android Development] pnaciona:
My apologies, I don't think the userinit.rc thingie works. You'll have to mess with a2sd.sh for your swappiness. All the stuff about linux will work fine though.

[G1 Android Development] johnnylicious:
try going into the recovery screen

and alt + x to go into console

and type in parted /dev/block/mmcblk03/

and type in print

tell me what it says, maybe you didnt partition your linux-swap properly.
[G1 Android Development] alritewhadeva:
Shouldnt it be parted "/dev/block/mmcblk0"?

Anyone else have the problem with the camera orientation. When i have the screen closed and vertical the image is all skewed and twisted. If i open the screen (slide it out) the screen appears normal. If i rotate the camera it appears normal as well.

Its only skewed when the screen is closed and vertical.
[G1 Android Development] bobbybooshay:
basially you're gonna have to format your sd card into 3 partitions, in this order - fat32, ext3/4, linux-swap.

this is also covered in the first post.

the first post also has links to other resourses/tutorials on getting "Hero" on your g1.

the menu bar also has a "Search this Thread" feature - I use this to search for my question to see if someone else has asked it before.

I was fascinated by all this when i found out about it.

the same parted not found
[G1 Android Development] qnzmental:
yup same thing on the last builds the problem is that there is auto-rotate on the camera.apk so when the phone is vertical it takes the image wide screen (like if u had the phone held horizontally)..kinda hard to explain i tried taking off auto-rotate but no luck. If u start the camera app with the phone horizontally and turn the phone vertically but upside down then auto-rotate wont activate and the picute is normal (vertical shot). Never the less this is annoying so, if some one can plzzz.....find a fix or report this to JAC or DIZZ or whoever can fix this.....if some one knows how to take off auto-rotate through terminal or something for only one specific app (camera.apk) plz let us know or else jac will have to fix in future build...

P.S

camcorder does not have auto-rotate thats why it does not do the same thing.....

thanks in advance

do you even have recovery image 1.3.1?

also i think just read the first post it tells you how to find out what partition you currently have...

1.3.1

lol...I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM! I had to flash 1.3.1 recovery image 3 times until it finally accepted the change at the bottom of the recovery screen. Supposedly, it is a known issue with some installs. I even had the blue screen and trackball options, but it sais 1.2 +jf at the bottom of the recovery page....Make sure it says 1.3 at the bottom of the recovery page when you boot it up using home+power

Speed seems to be on par with jacheroskis rom...only slightly smoother but it seems that jacheroskis can handle battery life a little better...
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
either the partitions didnt format correctly or else you need to make the sizes smaller. it means theres not enough room to do what you commanded it to
[G1 Android Development] big nu:
Yeah jachero could have better battery life, i think jacheroski's has a different kernel that causes that battery to give a little more.

This is all about give and take..lol

[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
I'm just talking about the source. The original system.img unyaffed.

When you open the .zip and see everything minus the boot.img.

As things have progressed our builds have become more, and more similar. Basically, he couldn't implement the linux-swap until he got on a 2.6.29 kernel. I had been using cyanogen's kernel for awhile back so that wasn't an issue for me. Now that we're both on 2.6.29 our builds are very similar.

It would be safe to bet that after we both conduct some more benchmarks we will gravitate towards the same thing.

[G1 Android Development] xyrcncp:
I tried to flash 2.63SlowSD twice last night and both times it just got stuck at "Opening update package", I had it sitting on that for 10-15 minutes, pulled the battery and started again, same deal. First time this has ever happened to me while flashing. Ended up flashing the nandroid backup. I'll give it a try again tonight.
[G1 Android Development] steveruv:
been reading the posts and very helpful. been a lurker but have a few questions:

downloaded JACHero 2.6.3 and running great, except someone had earlier said some force closes when pressing the weather/clock widget.

i had previously been running 2.3.6 and superhero v3 the last 2 days and had also done thru partition manager the fat 32 and ext 32. since I am getting the lock screen, lags, and force closes, should I format the card, redo the partitions, and re-flash?

checked page 1 and i am not familiar with the sizes needed in terms of mb, etc, so i do it thru partition manager but didnt know if that would help in regards to the lag.
[G1 Android Development] johnp888:
so i noticed that in /system/bin/a2sd.sh swappiness is set to 30 for the swap partition. is this the recommended default? i also noticed that /system/sd/userinit.sh is called before starting up the swap partition so any swappiness setting done there would be overrided by a2sd.sh. only noticed since i was curious and checked the swappiness setting.
[G1 Android Development] johnnylicious:
maybe you got a bad download file

check md5 sum with first post before flashing could be the problem.

and im assuming you know to always WIPE before update also.

or maybe bad sdcard? maybe reformat

could be any of those issues.

[G1 Android Development] Zarboz:
i get messages force close upon reciept of new message and tryin to open it... will logcat later
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Doesn't mean there are memory leaks. At least not serious ones. That's most likely cache's and private user data being stored, as the build doesn't keep data on sd.

It's in the init.rc and a2sd.sh as proof if your interested.
[G1 Android Development] daemontux:
From the first post:
[G1 Android Development] Henchman:
I ended up doing just that.

Reformat, repartition.

Thing works smooth as butta now.
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
All my cache is stored to SD. I just flashed this last night (11PM) and when I got up this morning it was down 4 mgs
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
ok. but your data is not. and your phone is CONSTANTLY DOWNLOADING, especially with Hero and the widgets etc...
[G1 Android Development] alritewhadeva:
So is there a way to clear all that cache? I know you can clear the cache for the market and the browser but I'm not sure about the widgets :)
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
you can always move data to the sd but it is not recommended.
[G1 Android Development] big nu:
that could be you cache, browser, market etc... there an app go to market>search>cache. and youll see an app that says cache to sd for root users

edit: i see you already figured out its not cache..:D
[G1 Android Development] alritewhadeva:
Ah thank-you for the quick response. I have no intention of moving data to the sd however :p
[G1 Android Development] steveruv:
Henchman, im gonna try that now, thanks.

also, does it matter if i just keep the the same partitions i had set, fat32 and ext2, do i really need an ext3? anyone have a guide to set it for fat32/ext2/ext3? ive been following the guides for just fat32 and ext2.
[G1 Android Development] OFinch:
I have been lagging some with 2.63 aps to SD.. just very little.. I am still liking it.. Keep up the good work guys!!!
[G1 Android Development] chesh420:
Quick question for you guys before I take the plunge and install JACHero. If your SD card ever goes bad and you have to get a new one, what are your options? Have a backup already partitioned you can use in the meantime (not a permanent, but maybe a 1GB if you were using a 8/16GB), or is your phone pretty much unusable until ya get a new SD in there due to the swap space? Do you lose anything important if your SD card goes TU? (Assuming you are a good computer user that backs up their SD card to your computer) Thanks for any replies!

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] EGutierrez91:
Going to be getting an HTC Fuze soon and I wanted to know how the GPS applications work. If I get a paid application (i.e. TomTom), will I pay a monthly fee, or just the fee for the program. Also, with an app like that, does it use just my data plan if there is no monthly fee?

Sorry for asking such noob questions, but I tried searching and I'm somewhat of a noob to modifying on WM, so most of the words sound like gibberish to me.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] DaveLinger:
The only GPS app that I know of that has a monthly fee is the included AT&T Navigator.

TomTom and most standalone GPS apps do NOT use your data plan, because the maps are saved to your memory card. I think the US TomTom 8 maps are like 900MB.

Google Maps could also be considered an option, and although it's totally free, it DOES use your data connection to retrieve the maps.

Well im trying to get back on the "ROOT" wagon but its like "something" is trying to stop me from doing so.

I've rooted once before but reverted back to Google ROM(stock). Idk if that matters considering I hav had my phone working fine ever since i reverted back about 2 weeks ago.

So yeah when i mount my phone via usb to my computer its detects it and all

but when i try and reformat it to FAT32, to put the Dreaming file on the root

its disconnects it by itself. and then when i put anything sucssesfully on the card and insert it to my phone(My G1 formats the card, leaving it blank)

So im wondering is it a phone problem or sd

Ive tried diffrent cards. One works but is not big enough to hold my info

Oh and i tried using a sdcard reader and it can format it but

once again my phone formats it

So any input, anyone

but the problem is( i think)

my g1 is hiding the DREAIMG.nbh???

because cupcake is on it

but then again anything you put on this card gets erased by my phone regardless of file type(Music, Photos, etc..)

and i dont want to use my 1gb micro cuz its too small

Hi guys, I'm new to smartphones and i just got my xperia x1 black a week ago. I dun haf much in mind to tweak this unit yet, but i am definitely looking for a free aGPS software. And i have been reading this forum and some other forums for the past 1 wk but i still dont quite understand how to install it.

the things ive gone past is garmin mobile XT, which require purchase. The next is garmin que, but it says ill need to install some gpsproxy, which i have no idea where to get it yet. and finally mapking.. which i am still struggling. Is there a specific place i could read more. or are there any .cab files that i can install then i could just use an offline agps service. googlemap requires me to pay and each time the charges arent cheap in my place.

finally kudos to fingerkeyboard developers... that proves to be alot more useful than the build-in virtual keyboard....

I read up on XDA for several weeks before flashing the ROM on my G4 Wizard. The phone works very well for the most part, but I keep getting a series of error messages about programs that won't run (taskmanager.exe, clock.exe, etc.) If I click on "ok" I can usually get past this series of messages, but if I don't do it fairly quickly after they come up the phone sometimes crashes, and I have to turn it off/on. I'm also sometimes not getting voice mail messages in real time; sometimes get them a day late....this has happened a couple of times. Does anyone know a solution to this, or have suggestions? Am thinking of flashing a different ROM if I can't get this resolved but it took me a couple of weeks just to get everything reconfigured with AT&T on web/email access.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts or direction!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] StealthNet:
Same problem here.

Already posted in lots of threads around, looking for an answer. I even hardreset the device trying to isolate the problem. At first I thought it would be s2u2, but then I found that Max TTM places a "shake" program in the startup folder. After removing it, the device started loading TF3D fine (most of the time).

Since it happened again already once, my conclusion is that neither the shake program nor s2u2 are the true softwares to blame. I think it is something in my startup folder tho.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] D3StRoY:
I had the same problem..

And i solved it, by uninstalling S2U2 :mad: I really like S2U2 but i had to uninstall this to get TF3D working directly.

This is what happened to me in detail:

1: Installed S2U2 > Reboot > TF3D Won't Boot

2: Reboot > TF3D Won't Boot

3: Reboot > TF3D Won't Boot

4: Reboot > TF3D Boots

Every 3 resets TF3D boots, otherwise nothing will happen.

When uninstalling S2U2 everything was fine.
