odd issues

Hmm, 3.6.8.1 was working fine for a while, then as of last night, my wifi no longer works. It connects fine, but I can't access any data. This has been the case both at home and work, where the access point has worked with other devices (so I know it's the phone, not the AP).

Then I tried a reboot, and the phone came back losing the icons Key Ring and MyBackupPro, and both programs immediately force close when I run them. The wifi issue unsolved.

Something similar happened before, where long-pressing the End Call button only showed "Reboot phone" and "Power off", missing "Silent mode" and "Airplane mode".

Location Issues

My G1 is not able to pick up location using my network. I dont want to turn on the GPS for normal apps like shepra or Weatherbug or loopt.

Please Help. It was working fine... but not anymore...

anyone else having this issue?

i tried complete wipe... wiped my ext3.. twice.. and i even tried one of the older Roms.. nothing is working... this is a real problem for me. PLEASE HELP
[G1 Android Development] mlevin:
Yes, I have that problem, too. I'm on 3.6.8.1 and the in-call volume is WAY TOO LOUD. I have to hold the phone away from my ear.

When I try to turn the volume down, it will only go down to a certain point and then it won't go any lower.

How can I adjust this? Or can it be adjusted in an upcoming build?

Thanks

I just installed this ROM and it is amazingly fast... no issues whatsoever... I'll let you know if anything creeps up...

Thank you for your incredible work!!

btw... loaded the latest recovery also - remarkable!

This might seem like a stupid suggestion as I dont know what is has to do with it, but I had this problem with one of JF's and it was because I was still on the old radio. If you didn't already, upgrade your radio to 26I

My google sky maps no longer shows a map, any compass programs never move, they are just stuck on North, and gps never seems to locate, It used to work before I used this rom, is something wrong? How can i check? sorry I'm new, ive searched and tried irc to no avail

I have a problem with the SD Card, some apps do not detect it. I made a FAT32 partiton, an ext3 partition and a linux swap partition following the instructions of this post:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=534714 I don’t use the linux-swap, though.

I can access the SD card with a file explorer app, listen to music and see pictures in it, but the camera doesn’t take pictures because it says that I have to put an SD card first, and although in settings it says that I have card with total space of 3.280 MB (and a secondary SD card of 446 MB), it doesn’t let me unmount it to get it out of the phone, that option is disabled.

Any ideas or help?

Thanks!

Cannot get the "automatic" apps2sd to activate. I have a 4gb card, first partition is fat32, second is ext3. Created them in cyanogen's recovery 1.4. I figured, okay, maybe it needs a wipe to see the partition. Still only 70mb space. Okay, I reflashed... Still only 70mb space. It is showing a secondary SD partition, so I know the phone can see the partition, but apps2sd just doesn't do "automatic"... what am I missing?

Or - am I just misunderstanding how this works? I saw a video of a different version of apps2sd and that showed the available space would jump to the space you allocated on the card - does it not do this on cyanogenMod? How can I verify this is working?
[G1 Android Development] rustyx3:
And this answers my original question how?
[G1 Android Development] ThR1LL:
I think he's trying to say you can't change it. I'm not too sure myself, but in the the 3.9.x builds you are able to change it.

I'm going to shift to this rom.... Should I do it? Is it really working or not?

My choice is this rom or an hero rom... I can't decide. I'd like to have an hero rom, but I'm afraid that it could be to slow for the g1!

the other possibility is to going back to JF!

ah, should I use the ext2 or ext3 partition?

laste question: which is the latest SPL? the haykuro one?
[G1 Android Development] smasraum:
Top notch ROM!! It seems to be working very well. It's fast. Prior to this, I was running one of the Rogers ROMs. I had apps2SD on an ext2 part. I did a wipe and installed this ROM. After the phone booted up, all of my apps were still installed. The Market cache was working and showed that they were all installed. The only things that I had to replace were my icons, wallpaper and ringtones which is to be expected after a wipe. This ROM seems to be running as fast or very close to it as the standard TMO non-rooted Cupcake.

Fantastic!
[G1 Android Development] NeoBlade:
I'd go with this personally. While the gloss of Hero is rather nice, this is plenty fast and stable for daily use without issues.

You can use either EXT2 or 3, I've converted my EXT2 to EXT3 when the option was there and had zero issues. You will not lose your data when converting.

And yeah the latest SPL is Haykuro's SPL (as seen in my signature). It is also known as the Danger SPL.

mm i need a lil help here, there seems to be some problems with superuser permission. whenever i type su in terminal, it brings me to a black SU request window without all the allow/disallow options, and it will FC. hence i cant do anything that requires su permission.

any help pls :)

thank you ~~

edit : sry ive found the solution, my debug was off x.x'
[G1 Android Development] temporizer:
rustamabd, I answered that way because you are posting in the 3.6.8.1 forum. Since you posted here, I assumed that you are on 3.6.8.1 or older, which does NOT give you the option to go from 5 to 3 home screens, like the opening post points out. I would've answered like Th1LL did, that 3.9.x builds give you the customization option.

I figure i answered correctly seeing what forum we are in currently.
[G1 Android Development] uberingram:
I've searched this thread for a good hour but came up dry. If it's been posted about please point me to the post, thanks.

Everything works except GMail. It crashes. The phone syncs with all other services just fine. I've tried fix_permissions from the user's previous JF recovery image, I've tried wiping and reflashing numerous times but to no avail. Anybody run into this before?

Edit: If I go to Settings and Data Sync it just sits and spins on GMail as well. :-/

Just installed (v3.6.8.1 - stable version, updated 7/21) on rooted Rogers Dream. I have no data connection :(. Voice works without issue. any ideas?

edit: nevermind it was already answered in another thread. sorry... fix
[G1 Android Development] uberingram:
Well...I changed the SD card and everything seemed to work ok. It looks like the SD card he was using was ancient and the apps2SD probably killed it because as I tried different fixes the phone got worse and worse and got to the point of black screening after the boot splash.
[G1 Android Development] lotherius:
Posting again.... last post on this thread about the topic - No solutions for if apps2sd fails? No tutorial, no nothing? I have everything else running on this ROM, have partitioned the SDCard with a fat32 and ext3 partition - it shows a secondary SD card in sd & phone card storage of the correct size.....

Yet apps2sd doesn't work. If there's something simple to "activate" it, it would be nice to know. I have read it is supposed to set itself up - I have wiped, I've reflashed, etc, and come up dry. Apps are still taking up internal RAM.

If nobody can offer a solution, I will simply have to change ROMs as this is the sole reason I rooted my phone was for apps2sd.
[G1 Android Development] prettyboy85712:
Apps2sd is working. This ROM uses a different method for apps2sd than the app. In your case 70MB is correct.

Problems with roaming

Hi.. I'm using 3.6.8.1 on my HTC Dream and I've got some issues with roaming. I've travelled to 3 countries last month and I had issues with connecting to GSM network.. There was error message that my sim card cannot work with specific networks.. I've tried to use auto connection and I've tried also to connect manually to specific networks, but with the same result. I've tried also rebooting and removing the battery... Problem dissapeared after few hours... I had this issue in Austria, Hungary and Turkey so it's not operator/country specific. Problems doesn't exist on different cell phone. Everything works fine after powering on the phone.

Do you have similar issues ?
[G1 Android Development] Lamar720:
"This ROM uses a different method for apps2sd than the app. In your case 70MB is correct."

Exactly, what method is it, I went from 3.4v to 3.6.8.1v on 3.4v I have app2d and Memory was formatted 1.5G I just need to know where is the apps saved at now?

Its says I only have 74mb

Thanks for the help
[G1 Android Development] iso67:
thanks a lot... I think tihs night i'll go for it!

luckely I already have the haykuro SPL.... it is working fine for me. I only have to change recovery image!

Wich problems has the jacHero rom?
[G1 Android Development] atg2d:
Super User?

Hi sorry if this has already been answered but i couldn't find it.

I just installed the current stable version of the ROM but i can't find the Super User app. Is there one? And the apps that i have that require root are not working. If there is no Super User app preinstalled can you point me to a thread that explains how to install it?

Thank you
[G1 Android Development] Lamar720:
Quick question I went from 3.4v to 3.681 and I have ext part. at about 1.2gb on 3.4v When I updated to 3.681 the sd card still has the part. and apps are being saved to the sd card but, my system memory only show 74mb.

Help if you can thanks!

[G1 Android Development] sputnik99:
does this sentence make sense?????

Anyway, I don't think, this is a wallpaper thread here.
[G1 Android Development] realcyberbob:
Ever since I started with 3.6.8.1 my internal memory has been going down. I started with about 70mb and it gradually went down, now I'm around 55mb after clearing my internet cache. I do have a 2nd partition for the automatic apps2sd and it seems to work, since I've gone from 448mb to 334mb on the ext partition. Anybody know why my internal memory is decreasing?
[G1 Android Development] DarkFoxDK:
I think I was clear enough... But let me try and rephrase it...

Currently the wallpaper must be 640x480 in size, if not, it will be cropped.

Instead, if you have a wallpaper with a resolution of 1600x480 (the width of 5 screens/spaces/pages), the wallpaper should "follow the icons"/scroll a complete 320 pixels to the left/right.

Equally, if you had a wallpaper with a resolution of 320x480 (the width of one screen), the wallpaper should stay and only the icons move.
[G1 Android Development] imbonez9:
do you not understand this is not a wallpaper thread? Holy hell people are f'ing retardedly slow!!!!
[G1 Android Development] temporizer:
You answered your own question... "this is not a wallpaper thing, it's a home APP thing...."

So, this should be in a launcher thread, not a rom thread.

That attitude just shows that you are inconsiderate. Those guys are trying to direct you to the right thread...

here is one.

[G1 Android Development] irishrally:
I feel dead inside after not updating to a new ROM in over 2 weeks. Please help.

On a more serious note, my internal memory is fairly low, 50mb. I've installed Touchdown and a few other apps that I don't think would be saved to the external partition on my SD card. Am I paranoid or should I have more internal memory?
[G1 Android Development] sha.goyjo:
A little help with your memory problems!

Okay, I did it myself. Shrunken audio-resources.zip (audio-resources-tiny). The difference in sound quality isn't really noticeable through the back speaker, and to be honest I just care more about memory usage than anything else.

This is ONLY the sounds from CM (off the stable build). If you want my full pack you have to go to themes and wallpapers, I've got it posted in there.

[G1 Android Development] ghrayfahx:
Anyone interested?

I got tired of having to go in myself and change from qwerty to qwertz every time I flashed a rom, so I started modifying the files before I flashed to make life easier. I also included ALL the default ringers/alarms/notifications from standard G1 builds, as well as those in JACHero, which I can only assume are the new HTC ringers. This rom (3.6.8.1) was the first one I modified. I was wondering if anyone would be interested, as I can add it to rapidshare/megaupload if so. Side note, I noticed it seems to default to German midway through initial setup. I think this is due to my having a German G1, but I'm not sure. I wouldn't mind finding out how to change this though.
[G1 Android Development] Slow is Fast:
Both me and a friend have had GPS stop working on our G1's. None of my programs connect to anything. I'm slowly re-reading through this thread, search found nothing for me.

this version has been up for awhile.

when will new stable roms come out???
[G1 Android Development] Darrien13:
I have apps2sd and why does my internal memory go down i have all caches to sd also it started at 74 and im now at 51 mb
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
Version 3.6.8.1 IS the stable ROM.

Taken from Page 1:
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
You basically asked the same question twice and they are only one page apart from each other. See below...

LOL...now that Cyanogen has an updater on Market, maybe you'll be able to get your "fix" :)

Are you using the Market program Apps2SD? If so, get rid of it, you don't need it with Cyanogen's ROMs. Apps to SD is automatic as long as you have an Ext2, 3, or 4 partition on your SD Card. Otherwise...

Unlike other ROMs, Cyanogen keeps some items on the internal memory for performance and other reasons. Also, with Cyanogen's ROMs, the more programs you install, the more the internal memory will (slowly) go down. Like you, I started with 74MB of internal memory, but I now have 118 apps installed and now have 63MB internal memory.

It's really not a big deal, the amount of free memory is more for show, it doesn't help anything - in fact, I'd bet your phone doesn't run any differently than it did when you had 74MB, right? Anyway, try this (I know some of you already have)...

Clear the cache in your browser (WHILE IN BROWSER - Click Menu -> More -> Settings -> Scroll down and click "Clear cache" & "Clear history"). This should free up some of your used memory.

I also use a program in Market called "Clear Me" (I don't remember if it's free or not.)
[G1 Android Development] chrisag92:
i know that. but i was asking when a newer stable rom is going to be released
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
LOL, I love how people get their panties in a bunch about how much free memory they have. It's like they are determined to have their memory sit untouched. It's like buying a movie and never watching it. You just show it to your friends when they come over.
[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
My unathoratative guess is that 4.0 will be the next stable release, whenever 3.9 is out of beta.

That being said, 3.9.5 and 3.9.7 are both quite stable and since Cyanogen's away for the weekend, 3.9.7 will be the latest till at least Monday.
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
Ah, sorry, I misunderstood...

I'm using 3.9.7 right now, it's got at one bug that seems to be prevalent in all installations...dismissing or snoozing a Google Calendar event causes a FC, other than that, I'm having no issues.
[G1 Android Development] turboyo:
Whats the best way to take the battery off the lockscreen? trying to be battery efficient here..
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
I think the best way to get rid of the battery on the lockscreen is to upgrade to Cyanogen's v3.9.7 - there is no battery on the lock screen and I've noticed a big difference with battery life.
[G1 Android Development] androidmonkey:
Unless you keep your screen on 24/7, how would removing that battery icon improve battery life by a noticeable difference?
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
The lock screen is always on, you just don't see it because the backlight turns off; thus, the battery meter is always running when the screen is locked.

This is taken from the 3.9.X Experimental Changelog...
[G1 Android Development] -RotorDemon-:
Since upgrading to 3.6.8.1 Something is using an obscene amount of battery life, are others experiencing this problem? My GF has a G1 as well, I upgraded hers the other night too and leaves for work with a full charge, 10 hours later it's at 20% and she only sends a few text messages on her lunch to me.

No new apps on either, just an upgrade. I love how fast this ROM is and the battery life was great on the prior versions.
[G1 Android Development] alvinleephd:
For appstosd, do I have to make the ext2 partition with the recovery console, or can I do it with ubuntu? After I partitioned my SDcard with ubuntu, the ROM doesn't seem to recognize the SD card. It says it's a "blank or unrecognized file format" Are there any extra steps I'd have to take? I am using 3.6.8.1

Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] Seoulboy1:
I just format everything in recovery terminal using parted. No need to bother with using computer and it's real simple. It seems the partition you made isn't being recognized and so far with over 10+ complete formats for ext2/3 and a few for fat32 was done without fail. I recommend this method as it is the easiest. If you dont' have cyan's recovery image 1.4 then you should also download and install that first following instructions from the same thread. GL

How to update but preserve app data? I first try installing on JF 1.51 but my g1 refuses to boot, and adb logcat gives some errors that I don't remember now. Then I wipe before installing, then my g1 boots. I then just copy app data from /data/data from the backup I made to the SD card before wiping. The applications can read the settings, but when they try to write, they all give up on force-close (at least 3 apps do that). How do I get my settings back?

(I read about the fix_permission script, but I can't find it... and will it fix my problem?)
[G1 Android Development] xidominicanoix:
for fix_permissions just run "fix_permissions" in a recovery terminal
[G1 Android Development] polygonal:
Ahh silly me! I typed fix_permission instead of fix_permissions. Now it works. Thanks!

noob question, but my data is all ****ed up right now, so do I have to google activate after flashing this?

A few quick questions

Hi, I'm new to all this. I've rooted my G1 and have jf 1.5 rom installed.

what I want to know is can I install this rom over mine? do I have to install a new radio or anything before I do?

if I have to wipe, will this get rid of my recovery console? can I just back up my sd card and recover if the installation gos wrong with the new rom?

what do I actually have to do to wipe! (lol)

and will this rom work in the uk? am I going to have any problems with the market?

sorry if these questions have been asked before but I just want to be safe rather than sorry!

Thanks :)
[G1 Android Development] mer6:
As a billion people should tell you, please use search. Anyways, in order of your questions:

Yes. And you probably should if you aren't on the newest radio. That can be found with the search button, but if you're too lazy it's here http://sapphire-port-dream.googlecode.com/files/ota-radio-2_22_19_26I.zip

No, yes, and the instructions are built into the pimped out Cyanogen recovery found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=523558

Yes, no.

PS you have already signed your responsibility for everything over to yourself with your phone as soon as you rooted it. Remember to read directions and enjoy :)

Does this rom have the multitouch browser? Also what's the htc camera? Does it have a zoom function?

[G1 Android Development] nyijedi:
I've been absolutely LOVING cyanogen's 3.6.8.1 ROM...however, I just encountered a huge problem. When I pair my G1 with my bluetooth headset, not only do I not get an audio in my headset, but it completely hoses my phone until I reboot it. That is, even after I unpair it and turn off my bluetooth on my G1, when I make or receive a call, it connects, but I get NO AUDIO either way on the phone. The only solution is to reboot the phone. I've been searching these boards for about an hour now, and although I see that people have had issues w/ bluetooth, I did not see this specific problem, nor did I see any possible solutions. Anyone ever see this before? I've tried two Motorola bluetooth headsets - both of which worked on the official ROM. Any ideas?

EDIT: Nevermind. I didn't realize that although I checked my radio prior to rooting and it was up-to-date, rooting downgraded my radio, and that's what was causing the problem.
[G1 Android Development] skat325is:
Guys i wanna make sure i got this right, i think my A2SD is not working, and i've been searching the forums and links outside forums for like 3hrs and i finally gave up.

I wiped the SD card, created the 3 partitions, Fat32, ext2 (then upgraded to ext3) and the linux-swap, rechecked with Print command and all 3 partitions show. They'we were set like this:

4GB

Fat32 0 3573

Ext2 3573 4085 (512mb)

Linux-Swap 4085 4117 (32mb)

But i download apps from the Market and they're being sent to the phone's internal memory from what i see, also if i connect the phone to usb, when i acess the SD through MyComputer, its all empty.

Is there something i am missing? I'm sorry if this have been answered already but i couldn't find the answer anywhere.

Thanks in advance.

I was just wondering, what is the next stable release gonna be, 4.0? Will Cyanogen start working on stability at some point or will it just be whatever ends up as a stable build?
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
Yes 4.0 will be the next stable build. It's getting closer, probably one more "experimental" release before it's wrapped up.
[G1 Android Development] Rmag37:
Sweet, cant wait. Would 2 weeks be a reasonable expectation for a stable release or is it unpredictable.
