4.02 Wifi permanet active even when G1 is idle

Hello

I have updated to 4.02 and I think it is great.

I have only one question:

The Wifi - even when the settings order: stop WIFI when idle - is permanently active. Even if the screen is black -> Wifi is active .

Anybody an idea?

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] Aruku:
Hi.

I've a very important problem with this recent updates.

When I update to 4.0.1 version, I run the fix_permissions script to see if a few apps that didn't work were fixed, but what I got was that almost all apps doesn't work, after in a force close.

I ran the script again, and after I update to the latest version, but the problem continues.

I can't run any app now, so I can't use the Market, for example.

Does anybody know how to solve it?

Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
Did you wipe?

Did you try uninstalling and reinstalling the troublesome apps?

[G1 Android Development] Minker17:
Stupid, but EASY, question. COming from 4.0.1 to 4.0.2, I don't need to wipe, correct?

BUt a nandroid is still advised. I know I never had to on JF's roms, so I'm assuming Cy to Cy is ok.
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
I haven't wiped in a couple of months. Zero problems. (Well, no major problems, at least...) Others seem to get into trouble each update without wipe.

Try first without wipe. If you get lots of anomalies, wipe and re-update.

Remove Battery Life Widget?

How do I remove the Battery Life widget? (and additional apps included in the build) I ran the widget once but deleted it, but ever since then it runs as a service in the background for whatever reason. If I end the service it just pops back up again about a minute later. I tried:

adb shell rm /system/app/com.curvefish.batterylife.apk

but received an error stating that the file doesn't exist. Is it located in another path? Thanks
[G1 Android Development] Steelgreyhound:
Please remove this &*% Teeter from the build. What for is it compiled in? The game is a piece of sh!t ;( I'm tired removing it.

If it's necessary to have a game like this in a build (I don't know why), then take a look at the Labyrinth Lite (free).

I would greatly appreciate if you remove all the unnecessary apps and gui mods, or put them as a separate zip for updating after the main rom being istalled.

Thanks in advance for any changes. The roms are great! *thumbs up*
[G1 Android Development] djosiah:
you've got to understand that cyanogen will include whatever he wants to in his mods regardless of whether they are necessary or not. also if the majority of people like these apps included then they will stay included. if enough people want these apps removed, then cyanogen *might* consider removing them if he wishes to.
[G1 Android Development] thedeanius:
WOW!

Um, I thought i had something clever to say to flame this a-hole but i am just completely awestruck by this post.

Really dude, if you dont like the build go use some other &*% rom.

How does having this game on your device actually hurt you? I personally like the game and play it daily to relieve stress.

I am growing impatient with the useless and ignorant posts on here.

Argh
[G1 Android Development] smeat:
The modified fix_permissions will also correct file permissions not just file ownership. I had noticed that sometimes, perhaps after performing a restore of application data files, the permissions would be messed up.

The longer run time is because now instead of just mass changing all the files it makes sure that the files need to be changed and then logs that it is doing the changes. Very good for debugging what is going on, and not making unnecessary writes to your SD card.

The "improved" version is very necessary.

Running fix_permissions on first boot would not be a bad idea in my mind. It would add a couple minutes to the initial boot though.
[G1 Android Development] xidominicanoix:
if you really want it gone ... UNINSTALL IT lol ... i always have at least 3 or 4 or 5 things i remove everytime i flash the newest cyan rom and its no problem ... (cant complain for something you're getting for free right?) ... if you're having trouble uninstalling anything just PM me

i used to get a lot of issues with PureRSS ... try uninstalling it and then reinstalling it (also make sure you backup all you purerss data and then restore it afterward so you won't have to manually add all the feeds) PM me if you need help with this :D
[G1 Android Development] dinyar:
hi!

first of all thanks a lot for the great build. i'm at 4.0.2 and i seem to have found a small bug.

i'm on an austrian G1 (which is probably the same as the german one, in any case it has a qwertz-layout). the touch-keyboard realized this although the setting indicate that it only supports english it does offer german suggestions and also uses a qwertz-layout.

the weird thing that happens is the following:

when i type somewhere with my hardware keyboard it's fine initially, until i tap in the typing field. as of that point i firstly get suggestions just like if i was typing with the soft-keyboard and secondly my layout changes to qwerty (that is pressing z on the keyboard gives me a y and so on.. )

am i doing something wrong or is this a real bug?

a question related, but certainly not a bug:

how do i get the touch-keyboard to not start with a capital when i begin typing?

thanks in advance!

(btw, in case this has been already reported: i'm very sorry, i searched for qwertz which only returned one - non-relevant - post and a bunch of other words (german, sms, etc.) which returned too many posts to seep through.. )
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
@Cyanogen

Are you planning on integrating a sort of OBEX GUI right into your rom?

I think it would be much more useful than having to install a separate app to do this.

Perhaps you could enable bluetooth file transfers in sub menus where files can usually be sent via email, sms, mms, etc.

Cyanogen, a true genius. The 4.0.2 is awesome. I dont know why everyone has problems with the phones. My has ALWAYS ran smooth and fast, and getting better with each upgrade. I run the SmorgWhite theme (cause I have a white G1) and it has to be the best theme to run on this ROM that I've found. and I've tried ALL of them.

A work-around for your first question - when the suggestions start appearing b/c you tapped the screen, hit the menu button on your keyboard twice and they will go away.
[G1 Android Development] Kholdstare79:
I found a bug in 4.0.2 just right now, not sure if its disabled by default on Cyanogens part. But when I try to make a call and i go straight to someone Vmail i can't pull up the tab to bring the dial pad out. If I hit menu and press to show dial pad i can't even hit the numbers either as well. But other than that I really do like Cyanogens Roms much better than i've thought and thanks for you hard work too!
[G1 Android Development] kusotare:
I've had that problem on other roms. What I've found is that its usually caused by one of the background apps hanging (usually one of the widgets I have running on the home screen). Basically locks up the dialer and makes it, for lack of a better term, untouchable. The only real solution is to either f/c all of your apps using a task killer or ATM, or reboot the phone.
[G1 Android Development] Kholdstare79:
Thanks for the input i thought it was the rom build itself, glad to know his excellency work wasn't cause by this.
[G1 Android Development] mvv_hyd:
yeah, I see lots of force closurs for the widgets that I have... I usually don't care much.. I just hit wait. But, it's interesting to see it's cauing problem with the dialpad.
[G1 Android Development] elenaran:
Been having this problem for a couple builds. Thought it would work itself out, but it hasn't:

When I'm in my car, I have a stereo adapter plugged into my G1 connected to my Aux-In on my car, which works wonderfully for playing music off my phone. However, my car -also- is bluetooth-enabled, so my bluetooth is connected (just phone, not A2DP) at the same time. This seems to cause one problem w/ Cyanogen ROM-based android phones: If I'm listening to music, and someone calls, it pauses the music and the call goes over the bluetooth just fine, but whenever the call ends, the music resumes over the the phone's loudspeaker.

The little headphones icon has disappeared and in order to get the music playing over the car speakers again, I have to unplug the phone (which pauses the music), plug it back in, and then press resume. This is quite a hassle, especially while driving, and before I switched to Cyanogen ROMs, I never had this problem.

I love your ROMs, Cyan, but can you please fix this one thing!!

(Yes, I've tried wiping)
[G1 Android Development] toloveistorebel:
No Window Animations. Ever.

So I've been using Cyanogen builds for quite a while now and absolutely love them them. One problem I've had consistently with every build since the beginning is that window animations are pretty much non-existent. The transitions are fine though. Animations are enabled in settings and in spare parts, any setting i put it on other than very slow makes it seem like window animations are off. The very slow setting just makes it super choppy. I've searched and not found anybody else having this problem or at least not like me. I don't have apps2sd or swap going. Just the straight fat32. Tried it with the three partitions and same thing. Transitions are fine but window animations are crap. Other non Cyanogen builds work fine. If anybody can point me in the right direction or help me out that would be awesome. Fortunately the Cyan builds are so awesome that I can look past crappy window animations but it would be nice :) Thanks guys
[G1 Android Development] dinyar:

3G connection issue in 4.0.1

Hi guys,

I'm new to the whole rooting thing, so this is my first post. This ROM is overall pretty awesome. I mainly chose it to have the auto apps2d so I could free up the data partition for more memory.

I looked through this thread, and it seems like one other person had my problem, but it was solved with a radio update. In my case it seems like I already have the latest radio firmware, but my 3G connectivity is pretty bad using this ROM compared to the original Tmobile ROM. It sometimes will connect to 3G (I get it at my place), but will never hold the connection for more than 5 mins or so, and then it switches back to 2G indefinitely. There doesn't seem to be much I can do to actually tell it to switch back to 3G. My baseband version is 65.505.20.17U_2.22.19.26I.

The HTC radio image they have up on their site right now is 2.22.19.26I, so I assume I have the latest version since the last bit of numbers from my basband matches it (had Tmobile official OTA cupcake ROM before flashing to cyanogen).

Anyone know what the problem could be?
[G1 Android Development] stex81:
I have v3.8 stable, and i tried to upgrade to 4.0.2. I've experienced a lot of problems: If i make a wipe before install the new firmware, all the apps in the ext2 partition are not recognized. And App2SD is not correctly set. With TasKiller i noticed also that there are a lot of application running by default, more than the app i had with v.3.8.

I decided for the moment to use again v3.8. For me is perfect.

The only thing i would change is the phoneblock menu: in v 3.8 there is the battery icon with a lower label. I prefer the menu in v4.0.x, where battery icon is disappeared. How can i change this menu or the label under the battery?

Thanks in advance.
[G1 Android Development] blueheeler:
It never hurts to re-flash the radio after flashing a new rom.

I would start with that.

Another thing you might try is:

For 3g only go to dialer and press these

*#*#4636#*#*

And go to phone info and find where it says

Wdma only. Select that.

Or using AnyCut or BetterCut, choose Create A Shortcut, Activity, Phone Information, then scroll down and choose WDMA Only. That will effectively do the same thing as typing the above code.
