I also just want to add that I have been using this ROM for 2 days now. After trying Cyanogen and Akira, this by far is the fastest one yet. Its stable enough too. Only things I noticed is the end call button issue and screen timed out on me once while I was using it. Reboot fixed that though. Personally, best ROM I've tried yet. Oh and the update I'm guessing worked for me because I have never gotten the OTA issue.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Mr3G:
AmonRa I gots to give you props on this ROM! I've tried and tried to get Akirahs 1.6 to work on my phone, but it just didn't like my phone or my phone just didn't like Akirah?? I flashed your ROM and it runs like a factory phone! This ROM is more stable than the CM 4.0.4 that I was running, I have had no major issues at all!! Besides that "su" issue, I mean nothing!! Even that 3.5mm adapter issue.. I am now gonna stick to whatever you put out from now on!!

MT3G

AmonRa 1.6.1

AmonRa Recovery 1.2.2

Finally found my ROM...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bjtheone:
Do the ADB fix Amon suggested. Easy and solves the issue. If you get rid of SystemUpdater, it stops updating! :-)

If you are concerned about maybe needing it later, just rename it to .old rather than deleting it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] smartwild:
I think it just resumes the already one thats happening. It happened for me also, I let it finish its job. After that there is no more OTA
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ahmgsk:
its eating battery

it eats battery!!

for me for normal 1.2.1h it would do 1.5 days

for 1.6.1h it does only morning to eve thats it?

waiting for fixed release
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Wysie:
ahmgsk: Apply the OTA fix a few pages back, it will fix your batt issues. Your data is prob. going up at this moment :P.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ahmgsk:
data is not a prob i hav unlimited plan ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bluecluenj:
U might have an unlimited plan but your phone is trying to DL an OTA update and its eating your battery....the update will fix that and your phone will stop trying to get the update, and then your battery life will be better :)

Wallpapers, ringtones, and notifications from media pack to the right place

I just put the media pack from this rom on my sd card, but when i click "wallpaper gallery" the new wallpapers aren't there. And I can't use any of the ringtones/notifications in there as ringtones or notifications? Is there a special way you are supposed to install the media pack.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Cheesebaron:

Verification Failed

Hi, i tried updating using RA-IONv1.6.1G.zip

I did check the MD5 after download, i tried pushing it to the card with adb and with the storage driver (renamed it to update.zip of course).

Every time I get :

E:No signature (573 files)
E:Verification failed

I have a HTC Magic (32B), with Google branded from Vodafone Italy, decoded (I use it on Orange).

My second choice was the original (i think) rom found here : http://developer.htc.com/google-io-device.html

That fails with the same message.

Has anyone bump into this ? could my phone be faulty ?

thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Amon_RA:
You need to use a custom recovery with test-keys to apply the update!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Amon_RA:
I think your operator is sending sms in international format and that your contacts are stored in national format...

Keys remapped?

I've installed this ROM on my HTC Magic and it works well and quickly, apart from one main problem... the hard keys seem to be back to front. e.g the menu key is on back key and the back is on the search key. Same on the other side.

I've cleared and flashed a couple of times but no difference. I should say, I'm a newbie here and this is the first ROM I've flashed so if I've done something stupid or missed a step then please tell me (gently? :))

Edit: mine's a 32A 1.33.2009
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Amon_RA:
Strange, I didn't change the keymappings and they work fine on my Magic 32A. A wipe from recovery should solve your problem.

Which HTC Magic do you have, I mean from which country?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Amon_RA:
You need to unzip the pack and copy the alarms/ringtone/etc.. directories to the root of your SD-card, if you put them in any other directory it will not work.

So, you need to have this :

/sdcard/alarms

/sdcard/notifications

/sdcard/ringtones

/sdcard/wallpapers

I agree! I found the Google stock keyboard more responsive and easier to type on though its missing the longpress shortcuts.

only 60-70 characters per message

Hello Guys

This ROM is just perfect.. Speedy and without bugs so far. Just got issues with custom locale. When using the greek keyboard with or without T9(which prediction is very good), I can write down only 60-70 characters per message instead of 160 characters.. Is there any way to fix this issue?

thx in advance
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Amon_RA:
That's normal, greek characters are not 7-bit, so they require 2bytes instead of 1 for each character.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] seles:
Using the greek ime from market i can write 160 chars per message. So it should be a way to implement this feature to htc ime.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bonesy:

Camera Problem

Flashed my HTC Magic with RAv1.6.2. Facing only one problem.

My phone reboots after using the camera application for more than 10 secs. Any fix available?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Amon_RA:
I just tried the camera for a few minutes on a 32A and 32B and I don't have this problem :confused:

Which Camera settings do you use?

I guess you have tried to wipe?

You do have enough space available on your sd right?

No other 3th party Camera apps installed (non 1.6 compliant)?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] group:

Red button function in spare parts does not allow "home then sleep"
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] unfnknblvbl:
why did you remove multi-touch support in 1.6.2?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] AnDruid:
Hmmm. Can this file be signed, so that it can be applied from recovery. Will help in case someone swaps SDCard. Btw would reading ringtones/wallpaper of the phone memory be faster?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] avimak:
But lots of users will not go for Donut as they're dependent on Exchange support..

Maybe there is a reason to make a donut ROM with the HTC framework for people that agree to "pay in speed" for that support? :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] checko55:
@Amon_RA: your roms are really nice. thanx for the work.

is there a reason why you did not bring Multitouch again with the 1.6.2 version? Loving Multitouch!!!!

i still have the issue with the red button settings in the spare parts. "go to sleep" is working now, but "home, the sleep" does not work since the update to donut.

thx in advance
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] PremierITA:
how do you use multitouch on Amon_RA rom 1.6.1?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Amon_RA:
There is exchange support in my rom -> work email. (No calender support though). There are also a few really nice applications on the market that support full exchange support.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Amon_RA:
No - Android searches by default in the sdcard-directories.

I personally don't use MT, I think it's something you just use to show off and that's basically it. I might consider to release a patch if people really really want it :p

Yeah - There seems to be a problem with spareparts and Donut... I can't find Spareparts on the AOSP-git so I'm not sure if I can fix the issue :(

Do you know a Donut-rom on which it works?

You install an application that uses the MT-kernel-patch.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Wysie:
Hi Amon_RA, I told you many of us would want the MT :P. Please have a MT patch for each release :p. Thank you!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] checko55:
I think Multitouch is really nice to use in a browser or in pix-gallery. would be fine if you had a patch for posers like me. ;-)

I have not seen any other donut-roms right now. Only using your stuff.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] avimak:
Yeah, I know, and thank you for your great ROM.

But still, lots of users will be very happy to use donut and HTC framework together... :)

Maybe you'll be kind to make both versions? :o
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] PremierITA:
where are applications that use mt?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] lifeflayer:
Wow this rom is insanely fast. I am willing to sacrifice any features to have my phone run at this speed.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
after installing all my apps and setting up, keep getting google maps error message at boot up. "process has stopped unexpextedly". not sure what the problem is? The app does work when you run it. Should i uninstall/ remove the .apk and odex and reinstall? That fixed the problem on the last ver 1.61 but that shouldnt be necessary i think. any suggestions? Thanks. Otherwise, this rom is slamming!!! Thank you very much for this.

yea, the rom is super fast. so i already let go 1.3.0H rom for this. but i encounter some problems. got FC from acore today twice when i try to boot after nanbackup. so have to flash the whole thg again. now seem to be stable apart from my 3G line. mayb is my area that doesn't support 3G that much but sumtimes it works. really confused... sigh..:mad:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bluecluenj:
This is a great daily ROM for those who just need their phone to work perfectly all the time. It is super fast and my phone has never been better. The description says that it is made to be smooth not to look pretty, but honestly I dont have any complaints about the way it looks either. I have brandens blur them on it for the extra home screens and home orientation and its awesome! Found out that you cant just update without wiping if you have a theme installed but that's life lol. Thanks for an awesome ROM!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] andfreek:

Hi Aman_RA,

Looks like the blur screen still exist in this Donut too... :(

And advice for me?

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] edubarr:
Thanks for a great ROM! It's the fastest and best option I've found so far for 1.6 in a 32A. Keep up the awesome work.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Amon_RA:
Yes I know... it's probably because work email is still on 1.5.. if anyone can give me a 1.6 version I can fix that ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] typedink:
Going to flash once Rapisshare fishes downloading... ugh so slow today.

But I'm another vote for MT if possible.

Thanks!

edit: If I want a true fresh install I would click on wipe/format correct? How am I sure it is wiping because nothing gets deleted off of my sd card ever. Also for example I had downloaded the Tmo My Account app before seeing this Rom updated. So I installed this rom, I had not yet cleared the notification and when I rebooted into new Rom the notification was still there.

Thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] farbird:
quick question..

why is it that it shows the 3g icon but not the Hsdpa icon "H" ??

coz the stock roms shows H..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] farbird:
btw, system folder lacks space...

cant install much IME or java...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] FrAsErTaG:
sigh

Had 1.6 installed, nice rom, very fast.. Some apps didnt work obviously because they were cupcake not donut apps.

Ok I can live with that.

I was not reading this thread constently and there for, my phone was downloading over the air updates for a couple of days. I have only got a 100mb download limit... *cries at excess data bill*
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] elite_is3:
everything seems great, really wish the Android keyboard wasnt removed though
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Wysie:
typedink: If you wipe, and then flash, the notifications should not be there since you're basically running a clean build already...

farbird: H icon is only shown for HTC-based builds, such as HoFo Community ROM. Amon_RA's ROM is not a HTC-based build.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] farbird:
really?

H icon not for HSDPA network status?

I am sure H icon doesnt mean HTC build only... testing some unreleased phones with android os [ not from HTC] and they do have the H icon to denote HSDPA network connectivity..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Wysie:
farbird: All the builds based on AOSP have no H icon, from what I know. Moreover, those with the H icon does not have the 3G icon right? =\

Pardon me if I'm wrong, it's been a long time since I tried any HTC-based builds :P. If you read or search through this thread you'll find a couple of people saying the same thing, H is mainly HTC-based builds...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] farbird:
those with H icon will show 3G icon if unable to reach 7.2mbps speeds/connections..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Zoide_:
Thanks so much! Your instructions actually worked for setting my HTC IME to Spanish prediction. Now, is there a way to enable both Spanish and English prediction so we can toggle among the two as needed?

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] technograndad:
Not sure which country, I recently bought s/h but I assumed it was a Chinese import. I've tried wiping and recovering but the key problem still persists. I'd noticed they're actually shifted to the right:- Home is on the Menu key, Menu is on the Back key, Back is on Search and Search is wrapped back around and on the Home key.

I've now tried another different ROM and it's the same problem so I'll not clog up this thread since it's clearly not related to your ROM, I'm just posting back for info.

I'm new to this and reluctant to change the SPL since I'm paranoid about bricking it. Tried taking the battery out to reset it, no difference.

A nandroid restore of the Hero ROM that it arrived with puts the keys back where they should be, but I'll play around with this 1.6 for a while :)

Thanks for responding! I'll do some more lurking and reading.

Edit: Seems the guy I bought it from had the same issues, yet denied any knowledge. Hmmm :-/

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=553205

Modded launcher.apk with custom # of homescreens

Thanks for all your great work on Roms and recovery and for being so helpful here in the forums. You've really dedicated a lot of you time to this and I appreciate it.

This looks like another great rom and I can't wait to start using it.

I was spoiled by the modded launcher from the older rom with custom # of homescreens. It's the one that was in mod-packv1.zip. I can't seem to find where that came from. Does anyone know who made it and if they are working on one for Donut?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Wysie:

When you download something from the market it will be installed in /data/app or /data/private-app, not in /system/app :)

The current sparepart is installed in /system/app, so if you install a new one from the market you'll have 2 versions installed. One in /system/app (this is the one that came with this rom) and one in /data/app (the one you downloaded from the market).

You just need to delete the one in /system/app ;)

Delete both odex and apk file!

Can you let us know if the market spareparts still has the problem with the red key?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Amon_RA:
Sweet, I'll implement it in the next version ;)

Edit the files in /system/usr/keylayout ;)

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] phineous:
Brilliant! Thanks so much!:D

It seems the acore force close I was getting after flashing without wiping was caused by not having Advanced Launcher installed. Probably my 5 screen setup. After flashing the new rom, and then pushing Advanced Launcher replacement to Launcher.apk and then rebooting, the phone booted fine and works great (so far) without a wipe! Now I just have to update to Donut apps. The upgraded TTS alone is worth all the effort.

Thanks Wysie and Amon_RA!

Side note: The included APN for ATT won't work with 3G for me. I have to add a custom apn. The strange thing is that the settings in the xml file are the same as my custom apn.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bluecluenj:
Once again, awesome ROM! One question: In this latest build, I seem to be noticing a lot more programs opening themselves and/or staying open in the background (I use task panel). This causes a slowdown at times. Is there a change in memory management in this latest build? and is there anything I can do about it? Thanks :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Wysie:
phineous: I *think* it may be due to the uid mismatches. Did you try fixing uid permissions from recovery? :) I know the error can occur because AdvancedLauncher is not odexed, while the Launcher in this ROM is odexed, and it can be fixed by clearing the dalvik-cache, but Amon_RA has implemented the clearing of dalvik-cache already, so yup :\.
