Never had the change to test the 1.5.1. But this 1.8JacX runs just as fast as the originial G1 rom clean installed cupcake. Hell, it even runs faster and smoother than a real HTC Hero ;) I was thinking of getting me a Hero, but with this new rom i think i'll stick with the G1 for now :D

No FC's or sudden restarts.
[G1 Android Development] postbus31:
Had the same problem, just did a format of the sd-card, and started form the beginning.

You could start with:

Type Adb Shell

Type following the # parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

Type mklabel msdos

type RM1

type RM2

8GB SD:

mkpartfs primary fat32 0 7200

mkpartfs primary ext2 7200 7700

mkpartfs primary linux-swap 7700 7732

Exit

#upgrade_fs
[G1 Android Development] jugg2000:
I had a line error when I first tried to flash this ROM. I did a wipe and re-flashed... all was well.

I'd say wipe and re-flash a few times. If not, repair your ext partition, then wipe and re-flash.
[G1 Android Development] jugg2000:
Woke up this morning, right... picked up my G1 and found that this ROM is moving faster than it did last night!

I have pushed this ROM to it's limits and it is still blazing. Like so many have said, this is running faster than CupCake, on the real. Thanks miketaylor00 for the user.conf schooling... I totally understand it now. Thanks JAC, Drizzy, Modaco, Cy, Ski and all the rest of the devs that make good stuff like this possible.

No use in buying an HTC Hero now. G1 is smokin!

Now... to fall in line with similar requests... can there be a no-wipe update from here on out? Or is the next update going to be a full ROM requiring a wipe? I don't want to lose my tweaks.
[G1 Android Development] Psike1987:
I tested, but no change now I will test the wipe and update few times...I hope it will be better, how I repair the ext partition with the console e2fsck -????? Thanks

So after a lot of times Wipe / Update theres nothing gone change! My SD Card is Parted in 3 Parts Fat32 = 0-1447 | ext2 = 1447-1946 | Linux-Swap = 1946-1978 its for a 2Gb Crad with original 1978mb is there anything wrong?

Tanks for Help need this ROM!

I tested a nother Hero Rom but the same mistake!...

Ok I startet my phone with Power & Camera and there i finde a note:

why its another version as my updated version did I make anyting wrong?
[G1 Android Development] priide:
Does this rom auto detect between G1 and My touch like cyanogen rom? What im saying is will I have any trouble throwing it on my my touch? Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] postbus31:
First flash your radio: http://sapphire-port-dream.googlecode.com/files/ota-radio-2_22_19_26I.zip

Then the SPL http://sapphire-port-dream.googlecode.com/files/spl-signed.zip

It's critical you maintain this order: Radio first, then SPL!

Hey guys. I installed 1.8 on my mytouch and wifi is now not working. Also the keyboard doesn't auto correct. I tried flashing many times but it still the same story. Any help?
[G1 Android Development] tf442:
Maybe this should go in the Q & A section, but maybe it is related to this ROM. I can't seem to use music on my sd card for a ringtone. First, it doesn't seem to recognize "Rings Extended" after I installed it. And when going to the music app and selecting a song, there is no option to set for ringtone. Is there something I am missing?

Thanks in advance.

GPS and location services

Did anybody ever figure out y gps and location services work on 2g but not 3g services? is there a fix of any sort?
[G1 Android Development] gleemer:
From terminal use commands:

rwsystem

select your device and reboot.

This will take care of the wifi but not sure about the keyboard. :D

Hi, the messaging app 'loading' screen is caused by an incompatibility in the mmssms.db file when u restore using Backup for root user app. The new hero builds have an additional field in the sms table of the mmssms.db file. The solution is to add this new field to ur old sms backup.

To restore old sms file from earlier kernel, refer to

It should be able to use the GSM network to locate you within a certain range, but mine won't do that any more. I had flashed to 2.3.6, but then went back to the stock 1.5 and it doesn't work any more. Any ideas why? I still have the updated SPL loaded, would that cause an issue?

**Nevermind, got it working.
[G1 Android Development] Franklees:
is there some reason that we would loose root access after flashing? when i type in su in terminal, it tells me access denied, but it never asked me for permission. Is there a way to correct this?
[G1 Android Development] MvP77:
just copy or cut the file u want and paste it in the directory that u want.

For example, if a command says

ADB push ***.apk /data/app_s

you copy the file u want (it has to be on your card) then go to the data folder, then app_s folder and paste it there.

if the command calls for a reboot, reboot your phone after its done copying

Cyanogen's kernel saves more battery in my build. At 60% and have been using for 5 hours. So I would assume the same applies.

Has ANY dev addressed SMS yet?

Heres the test.

Got to text4free.net

Send yourself an SMS from there - there's an option to send 5 - do that.

Confirm that you receive them on your phone.

Launch the browser on your phone and let it load a page up (htc.com is the best - it's memory intensive)

Send yourself another 5 SMS.

You won't get them.

PLEASE. Speed is nice. Stability is nice. Features are nice. New Kernels are nice. They mean very little if our phone cannot be just that - a phone.

I am so appreciative of the devs for working their butts of getting this ROM to run on this phone - It's incredible.

I'm really surprised that this hasn't been resolved. I'd consider it the #1 issue with this Hero Rom.

I've been onboard for every hero release - JAC and SuperHero. Same issues.

I would ask the great devs to look at this issue closely and make it a priority!

Thanks so much for all you do.
[G1 Android Development] G1-evolve:
Suggestion to you, as well as all other HERO devs.

Remove flash/install the cupcake version of the browser.. I mean come on, no one is REALLY using the flash browser, and anyone who says they are, no..
[G1 Android Development] Raziel07:
He pretty much summed it up for me, I flashed back to cyanogen's for the time being but I did run 2.6 beta without swapper and setcpu (didn't have root and was too tired to install su) but JAC has done an amazing job with this rom, the only thing keeping it from being my daily user is the SMS. As soon as that's fixed I'm onboard for good.

But I give props to JAC and drizzy for all their work on this rom, and of course cyanogen and jf. All the devs here at xda do amazing work.
[G1 Android Development] Franklees:
So i would plug in my phone and use these commands

ADB copy /system/sd/app_s/Rosie.apk

ADB push /Rosie.apk/data/app_s

I am sorry if i am asking you to spoon feed me and change my pampers on this one, i have only successfully used adb 1 time, and that was on a previous post 5 min ago. thanks in advance

[G1 Android Development] mixer5911:
Thank you! That fixed it! :-)
[G1 Android Development] Docavelli:
Very good ROM guys. I flashed last night and everything is running great.

For you guys that don't want to have to re-install your apps try this. This is the standard procedure with one change.

: boot into recovery

: wipe

: boot into phone terminal and enter these:

(enter)

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

(enter)

# rm -rf /system/sd/* (to keep apps change to /system/sd/app_s)

(enter)

# reboot recovery

: now wipe again

: repair ext system

: flash

I haven't re-installed my apps in over a month. You may still need to fiddle with some settings and there may be a couple you MIGHT have to uninstall and re-install (depending on the ROM), but it has worked for every HERO I've tried, including this one.

I don't know if there will be any long term side effects but so far it's good to go.

*I am not responsible if you trash your phone. But come on. You really shouldn't.
[G1 Android Development] priide:
Thanks dude.
[G1 Android Development] dipeshb:
You forgot to wipe the dalvik-cache folder, this is what I do, to keep the apps, has never let me down:

1) boot into recovery

2) Go to phone terminal and enter this:

# mount /system/sd

# cd /system/sd/dalvik-cache

# rm * (removes all files within the dalvik-cache folder)

# cd /system/sd/app_s

# rm * (removes all files within the app_s folder)

# recovery

3) After the 'recovery' command, you should be back to the Cyan 1.4 recovery console. NOW WIPE. - No need to repair as we havent deleted any folders..

4) Apply the Update

Works every time.. Boot takes longer as apps load on boot up... Hope this helps some noobs
[G1 Android Development] matthewallen72:
this will sound dumb but how to I get the keyboard to come up on a mytouch when I go into the terminal. I want to fix the wifi problem, however when I pull up the terminal it doesnt have the keyboard, and I have tried everything I could think of

This ROM is STILL Usain Bolt status the next day; just flashed the MT fix... VERY pleased.

Phone reseting to HTC splash screen

Does anyone else have the problem (and solution) for the issue where every so often typically after returning to the home screen from an app, the phone shows the HTC splash screen and loads for about 20-30seconds before returning. This happens often and is just a nuance, everything else in this ROM works great and fast. Any comments are appreciated.
[G1 Android Development] akycia:
Happened once to me after flashing the 1.8 no-wipe update.... also, after i updated 1.8 with the no-wipe, my phone locks up on a black screen with the led lit up green, and i need to remove the battery. this has happened to me every time i reflash the no-wipe(3 times).... idk, i'm sure it will get fixed, just a little problem. rom works great after i remove the battery and reboot(except for the keyboard spelling correction problem, where it doesn't suggest words/auto correct)
[G1 Android Development] harpreet1988:
Increase your linux-swap partition and the swappiness. I'm using compcache with linux-swap(probably overkill :P), but I've yet to see the htc loading screen when I press the home button.

I have noticed a sort of new problem. If I leave wifi on, say overnight, in the morning, if I go to settings, it'll say "obtaining address", but it won't show any wifi networks in the list and it won't do anything till I turn off wifi and turn it back on. Also I set my alarm last night on my phone, but it didn't go off. :S

Hate to be the first one to say this, but I find that the Rosie on JAC1.72r2 is far smother then this one JAC1.8...

I have flashed ROMs so many times, so I know what I am doing, but I am getting strange lags with this ROM.. Like I would try and scroll between screens, and then the app my finger was on would open.. this never used to happen...

To be sure I am going to re-create my ext partitions.. only because everyone seems to say this ROM is so blazing fast, and no-one says 1.72 was faster...
[G1 Android Development] harpreet1988:
I have noticed the same thing. I'm going to be flashing back to the 1.5.1 ROM in Akira's thread, it was the fastest ROM I used.
[G1 Android Development] aminderler:
Does anyone use this method to format ext partition?

mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 #for ext2 partitions

mke2fs -j /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 #for ext3 partitions

I saw it in another forum. Not sure who posted it but it seems to work for me. Let me know what you think. Apologies if it was already talked about here.
[G1 Android Development] mixer5911:

[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
Do what I did in my video!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVp4STmGC0E

The reason I saw a slight lag was cuz the default minimum and maximum cpu speed was 128 and 528....

Which meant when you went from doing nothing to doing something it would take a second or 2 for the cpu to go higher...

Either change this with Overclock Widget, or edit the user.conf

:)
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
It works fine for me.

Did you wipe and wipe ext3 before flashing??? This seems to resolve most issues....
[G1 Android Development] RaQHoliday:
OK so, after flashing the 1.8 update to add MT a bit before noon EST, my phone has rebooted itself randomly on at least five different occasions :( At least two of these occasions were directly after concluding a call, tho one was during. On one occasion, the LED was lit and the phone looked "asleep", but when I tried to wake it up to check the notification it was COMPLETELY unresponsive. I ended up having to do a battery pull. :confused:

For the time being, I'll be going back to the original 1.8 update, MT isn't THAT big of a deal to me.

I remembered at some point to pull the log, and I've attached it in a zip-file; sorry if it's retardedly long or something, but I had no idea what info was pertinent and what wasn't. Hopefully it helps to pinpoint the issue.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Just read your little YouTube more info thing. While Cyanogen ported it to Android, it didn't "pass it on to us." Cyanogen, bless his soul, keeps all of his edits on his github account for anyone to see.

If you go here http://github.com/cyanogen/cm-kernel/commit/12bba3d56a1dbb0b9602b4daeeda439928081db8

you can see all of those edits to the files. What JAC and I did was take those edits, create a patch, and patch our respective kernels as JAC and I use different sources to give you more options! :D:)

Nonetheless, I uploaded a no-wipe MT fix earlier in the thread but didn't put it in the OP.
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
I am a noob. And this helps..... BIG TIME! Thank you, sir....

If you go to advanced settings -> Wi-Fi -> "Wi-Fi sleep policy" = you have the options to "never shut off", "never when plugged in", or "when screen turns off (default)"

[G1 Android Development] mixer5911:
So no one else has the auto correct problem? I'll try to re-format my sd card and re-flash the rom to see what happens. Other than that 1.8 is AWESOME!
[G1 Android Development] lycoln:
Wi-Fi Problem

To quote myself...and as an update...

This only seems to happen while using Wi-Fi. So switching off Wi-Fi and going to the data network will allow the apps to be downloaded. Not a problem with my Wi-Fi though since I'm on it to type this and I can browse the internet and the market from my phone (on Wi-Fi) without a problem.
[G1 Android Development] lycoln:
Go under text and locale from the main menu settings and you will see the options to change things to your liking. Try adding and removing what-ever you want under those setting before wiping and re-flashing.

No, it does appear to be a bug. auto-correct works everywhere else on the phone, just not in Messaging

I'm starting to sound like a broken record. It is a bug.

Search.

The issue has been posted in the thread already and I submitted the bug to JAC's Google Code page. If you search the thread, you'll see these posts in between all of the "how do I change swap", "what is swap", "help me!", "hey, what swap settings should I use?", "flashing now!" posts.
