[G1 Android Development] Blind Oracle:
Its most definitely unconfirmed. But that in it self doesn't really mean anything. I've reported MANY android bugs. Some go unanswered for months. Some go unanswered for months and are simply closed because it was a hardware/driver bug and not an android bug. Some go unanswered until they are closed - without even a state change saying they were originally reviewed or accepted.

Having said all that, it clearly does not mean its a legitimate bug report. In short, flip a coin. There really isn't a way to confirm its valid unless others pile on with additional information. Which really isn't very likely unless its really wide spread.

Just take it as another data point that there may actually be a core android problem at hand here.

Is there somebody that knows how to install the text messaging app from the version v3.9.7 into version v3.6.8.1 ??

Please help
[G1 Android Development] itp:
Nice catch. I've added as much information as I could to that bug report, including screenshots of DDMS capturing the allocations coming from the location services. I'll try to track down a Google employee to point at this on IRC if possible, as well.

Needing to reboot the phone every day or two is easily the most annoying behavior left on my phone, and I'd love to stomp this out.
[G1 Android Development] alexcar45:
I have been trying the new version v3.9.7 (no theme) using the SetCPU app at 528Mhz and I have found that this version is VERY slow in comparison with older ones, I like the new features but the speed is one of the most important characteristics on the G1 for me, I am downgrading to the latest stable version.
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
Not only did you not read again, but you're saying the same thing that has been said many times before.

First of all, you don't need SetCPU with this rom. This rom does auto frequency scaling.

Second, this is an experimental build, so bugs are likely.
[G1 Android Development] uwonsum:
conservative governor

@Cyanogen

You stated before that you played with conservative governor, and decided to go with ondemand. Please considering adding the conservative module to the next build so some of us can play with it and compare how it holds up against ondemand.

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
The next version will run much better. I've been slacking these past few days :)

internal memory

I'm using the latest 3.9.7 with an ext4 partition and a 32mb swap partition (swappiness of 20), compache enabled but that's it for user.conf. I believe apps2sd is working, as I can see apps in /system/sd/apps/ but my internal memory is 69mb (my ext4 partition is over 400mb). Any ideas why?
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
Apps are stored on SD, application data is stored on internal memory.
[G1 Android Development] alexcar45:
Where in the forum says that this build uses auto frequency scaling? I have not been able to find that anywhere.

I do read, however some of the information is easy to miss... too many posts, the search tool here at the XDA forums should be a little more refined, this would help finding information.

And next time please send me a PM if you need to complain about something you are not happy with and I will correct the situation, your kind of rude attitude does not help the forum's good vibe, at least it does not help mine.
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
So I guess the workaround to the slowdown issue is to turn off google latitude?

I'll try that and see if that solves the problem.

Since the slowdown problem is related to geo location, its probably a good idea to turn off any weather related apps or widgets as well.
[G1 Android Development] Tom Servo:
Is there a specific reason why I can't use SetCPU to set 176MHz as minimal frequency? According to posts in this thread, it's a supported frequency.
[G1 Android Development] johnt2k:
dont want to get banned or anything if im not suposed to put it here but

iv been running ur roms for a while now im on the current 3.9.7 and every time i go to home i get a bunch app not responding messages from chompsms ,taskkiller,android keyboard,messenger,google voice,open home and com.android.bugreport(dont even know what that one is) its not always the same ones but its usually 2 or 3 but if i hit wait it takes like 30 secs and everything works fine.also every now and then open home crashes and have to force close never had problems on other version of your roms just thought i would give you a heads up

and thanks alot for all the work you have done for the android community
[G1 Android Development] Glyphix:

modprobe ramzswap

I get

I havent tried this new room yet will try next build. I like to thank cyo for the good work and putting in the time. Everyone who see how my phone works compared to the original are in awe.

Only problem i have had since using any cyo roms are battery related it goes dead pretty soon and it takes like 12hours to charge if battery is depleted. Havent had many other problems ill try a new battery and see if that helps i want a bigger one any ways. Just hope it doesnt take 24hrs to do a complete charge lol
[G1 Android Development] Stigy:
Was there a final decision made on the new Launcher being removed?

If it is removed do I need to make a backup of the way my home screens and icons are setup or will the regular launcher just use the existing layout/icons?

Thanks?
[G1 Android Development] mfrey0118:
I'm just a noob myself, but have you tried running the fix_permissions script? It's pretty easy...just reboot your phone, hold down the home key for about 5 seconds and once you're in recover, type alt+x to get to recovery terminal, hit enter to get root, and simply type "fix_permissions", let it run, reboot and see if that works.
[G1 Android Development] ivanfilippov:
Hi there!

This has been reported before for prior versions I'd just like to point it out again. Enabling Wireless Network Location doesn't stick (unless you follow the below quoted method).

Details:

Open Settings, go to Location, enable Wireless Location, accept Google privacy agreement, back out of menu and return to it and Wireless Location is still disabled.

This allows you to enable Wireless Location.
[G1 Android Development] johnt2k:
for some reason on my phone i cant get to recovery terminal thats why i never did apps to sd until it was apart of his roms

i can get to recovery by holding power home and i hit Alt+L to get the text log up and it says at the top E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command

and alls i can do is Alt+W to wipe and Alt+s to install nothing happens when i hit Alt+X

but its been like that ever since i have rooted the phone and with every rom i have ever installed
[G1 Android Development] satadru:
Wifi Disabled at Boot?

Is there a way to keep the Wifi enabled when the device is rebooted? My wifi always seems to turn off at reboot. I have 3.9.7 installed, but this has been a problem as far back as I can remember with the cyanogenmod builds.
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
It's in the 2nd post of this thread for crying out loud. No need to use a search function!

My remark doesn't have anything to do with me trying to bring down the vibe of this thread. It's already depleted by people who just can't seem to read and then try to find an excuse for it.

I don't feel like PMing you because this involves around 90% of the people who post in this thread.

It's already hard as it is to keep in touch with the latest changes/issues that people report in this thread. Re-posting the same issue or not taking the time to read if and how that issue can be resolved causes this thread to get clogged up.

Don't blame me, blame the lazy ones.
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
Which recovery image are you using? Try flashing CM's 1.4 Recovery image, see if that fixes your problems.
[G1 Android Development] angel-78:
Update your radio. I went through the same thing 2 weeks ago with my wife's phone. Same symptoms,it took me almost 2 hours of rom flashing to realize that I didn't have the latest radio. Flashed radio and everything worked great. I searched the forum up and down before I considered posting on this thread.

Good luck I hope that resolves your issues.

Manny
[G1 Android Development] I am M3:
Sounds like you don't have Cyanogen's pimped out recovery image
[G1 Android Development] yellathcir:
Im not sure, but i think you can run the fix_permissions in the terminal emulator. but recovery 1.4 is the only way to go , if you dont have it
[G1 Android Development] pelo88:
Awesome response time

Wow, thank you! You give better support than any software vendor I've used. That was quicker than waiting on hold!
[G1 Android Development] johnt2k:
i could have swore i did recovery 1.4 a lil while back but i guess i didnt

i installed that and just got done doing fix_permissions

so i rebooted opened browser and then hit the home key and i got the same errors again any one have any other suggestions
[G1 Android Development] Faud:
Yes I wiped, it actually installed on the 3rd time last night...go figure. 3rd time is a charm, thanks yall for the help.
[G1 Android Development] fahadayaz:
welcome back cyan.. hope u had a great holiday.. im guessing ur busy working away on the next build. just wanted to ask if you had an estimate on when it might be out?
[G1 Android Development] underamoon:
Due to slowness on 3.9.7 I reflashed but it was still slow. So I tried the recommended reflashing the radio. This gave things a big speed bust. However, it still doesn't seem as robust as previous versions. I'm looking forward to the new version and if anyone is having a lot of problems they may want to consider reflashing the radio also.
[G1 Android Development] Mikey:
This ios not a thread too be asking that kind of question.

When he releases it, is when you get it. :)

Don't rush him or pest him about a time table.
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
Quoting for truth.

"When it's ready" is the answer.
[G1 Android Development] autojack:
Hoping my question just got lost in the noise since no one responded and this seems like a pretty active thread. Any comments about this? Or is the answer, "Your only choice is to wipe before installing?" Thanks...
[G1 Android Development] Janis:
[Bug reprt] Force closes

I've gotten a a couple of FC's. Not fc/waits. One that kept popping up was Touch Input. I love it (it's a little agressive in its correction, but I like to use non-words a lot). I was using gmail at the time. I couldn't catch it with a log since i was in the middle of stuff and couldn't stop to do it. It seemed to be on the correction, rather than the keyboard itself. I'll try to replicate and ppost a log if I can.

Again, I'm probably maxing out available memory. If someone wants to PM me, post a link, whatever, on the details of how this works I might be able to be more helpful.

SelfHelp in Market seems to provide the same service as T-mobile's My Account, but it kinda sucks memory-wise, persistent and bigger than the Tmo. I wasn't sure if the numbers I was getting were acurate, either. But it's someting to try in the mean time.

LauncherAPK: I origninally put a hyphen before the names of my folders in my app drawer to get them to sort. They aren't sorting consistently for me without the hyphens. Posting on that thread as well.
[G1 Android Development] Chahk:
A bit off-topic, but I've seen this mentioned before and thought this needed clarification.

It's a common misconception that you need to have the phone plugged in and have the "adb logcat" running in order to "catch" the error. This is incorrect. Logcat stores the log info since your phone's last reboot, or at least a few hundred kilobytes worth of it (someone please correct me on when the first entries start getting thrown away).

This means that you can pull out the log of the error after it happened. Granted, the log will contain lots of useless junk (mail check attempts, debugging statements from various apps, etc.) but you can usually spot the errors from crashes quite easily and crop the log to only relevant piece before posting on the forums.

Sorry, just had to get that off my chest. :)
[G1 Android Development] traspler:
Woa... Today I finally decided to flash a custom ROM onto my ADP and I must say: I love the CyanogenMod :D Great work! Thank you very much!

After some playing around I have a couple of things to say:

It would be great if the "PDF Viewer", "Quickoffice", "Log Collector" and "Amazon MP3" Apps would be uninstallable. The first two aren't really that great (I like the RepliGo Reader way better), the Log Collector is not needed and I can't use the Amazon MP3 as I do not have an American CC.

To make the ROM complete, it would be awesome if the CM Updater would be built into the system and accessible through the Settings app (just like the original ROM).

I've also got a couple of questions:

It should automatically do Apps2SD, right? But I don't see anything when I mount the SD...

Does the Build perform any kind of overclocking?

I really don't regret the switch :D
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
You can't uninstall the apps because they are located in the /system/app folder.

You can uninstall them manually through the terminal emulator though.

EDIT: ermm, I believe amazon is located in the system/app folder and the other files you mentioned are located in data/app. Someone correct me on this if needed.

1.

su

2.

mount -o rw,remount /system (or /data)

3.

cd system/app (or data/app)

4.

rm -r name_of_file.apk

repeat step 4 for each of the files you wish to remove.

Yes it does Apps2SD. For that you'll need an ext2/3/4 partition on your sd card right after the fat32 partition. Once you install an app (i.e. from the market) it will be located in /system/sd/app.

Yes this build has overclocking, or rather frequency scaling, which means it will up the frequency to 528Mhz when needed.
[G1 Android Development] firex21:
how do you get the ext2/3/4 partition on your sd card??
[G1 Android Development] traspler:
Thank you :)

So I have to manually create an ext partition? Now I've already installed all my apps... uh... uninstalling and installing everything again...

And btw. What's the "Submenu" option in "More" from Home. Does it belong to the Advanced Launcher? I just can't figure out how it works...

And something I just heard about but couldn't verify as I only used the ADP image: Why does the IM App need to read my Phone number from the SIM?
[G1 Android Development] prettyboy85712:
Yes, it's part of the advanced launcher. There is a dedicate thread for it linked in the first post.
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
Yes that's part of the Advanced Launcher, play around with it a little.

And yes you do need to create your own ext partition.

I use Ubuntu to partition my SD.

Just make sure that the Fat32 partition is first, followed by the ext partition.

You could also use a live version of GParted.

Also!: You don't really need to uninstall and re-install all the apps. You could use adb to pull the apps from the device. After that you partition your SD and push your apps back to the ext partition and they will all be there again. Go check out the adb thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=502010
[G1 Android Development] traspler:
Well, thank you all again :)

I could figure out what the mysterious Submenu option does (even though it's quite hard do decipher the "explanation" in the official thread), kind of at least... But enough of that, as this is not the thread for more of this.

And sadly also not for compcache and swapper stuff :( as I have no clue on how to set it all up (Compcache and apps2sd)(Is compcache like swapper?).

I'd be very glad if someone could point me to the right threads/tutorials/help in this matter as I did not find much (or was not sure if it applies to the cyanogenmod as he states, compache is already in there and stuff).

Much to gather from all around... Cyanogen did a great job of channeling all the good bits and pieces into one but there still seem to be some loose ends...
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
Like I sad, Apps2SD is already there, you only need an ext partition and it just works...like magic!

for compcache: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=542899
[G1 Android Development] mygti02:
im not sure if anyone else is having this issue, but it seems that my browser data is still being saved to my internal memory. How do i fix this?
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
You don't. It has always been stored there, along with all the other application data.
[G1 Android Development] mygti02:
hhmm i though app data was stored on the EXT2/3 partitions? or maybe im confused.
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
Apps are stored on the ext. Not the App "data". Meaning cache, etc.
[G1 Android Development] mygti02:
ah ok....may i ask why we dont put the app cache on the SD cards as well? is it do to the latency from sending and receiving data on the SD cards?
[G1 Android Development] All~G1:
Yes, plus the amount of other problems it causes.
[G1 Android Development] mygti02:
understood, thank you guys, i just wanted to be on the same page :)
[G1 Android Development] lyric911:
I haven't seen mention of this what I assume is a bug.

Phone is locked with screen powered off and I receive an email/sms/whatever. Something that generates a notification. I press a button to bring the screen up and drag down the notification drawer. Then touch the notification I want to view. On previous builds, even though my screen was still technically locked, clicking on the notification would open the messaging/email app (or whatever the notification went to.)

Now what I see is when i click on the notification after dragging down the notification drawer is that the notification drawer rolls back up and the app doesn't appear to have opened. However, if I push menu to unlock my phone after clicking the notification, the app did actually open, it just didn't unlock like it used to.

Anybody else seeing this on 3.9.7? I updated straight from 3.6.8.1. It reminds me a lot of the bug turned into a feature where the alarm dismiss/snooze notification was hiding behind the lock screen.
[G1 Android Development] temporizer:
Same here.

I posted this a few days ago:

I noticed it is still happening after a fresh wipe and reflash.
[G1 Android Development] bkmo:
Happens to me too. It must be a feature. :) I too get the caller screen behind the lockscreen if the phone hasn't been booted in a while. Hang in there, it will all get worked out soon I am sure.
[G1 Android Development] lyric911:
Temporizer/bkmo - Glad I'm not the only one and apologies for the duplicate report. This thread is nuts to try to remember everything that's been posted already.
[G1 Android Development] ScottGood:
Would it be possible to add something similar to this as an If-Then statement in your Firstboot.sh or your a2sd script to check for the setup Wizard has been run

True for wizard ran, False run wizard

If True then

Change build.prop code runs

else

run wizard

Something like that, just an Idea, if im way off say so and I'll edit this post to be deleted.
[G1 Android Development] Saiboogu:
I don't see how "Wipe, then flash" invalidates the wipe feature. The wipe feature is to eliminate user data. In CM, it also happens to wipe out some Cyan customizations. So, easy answer.. Wipe the old data, flash the ROM with the new (non personalized) data, and you have a clean, fresh install.
[G1 Android Development] derfolo:
Pinetreehater, thanks so much for posting this. I have been wondering about this very thing, and I haven't gotten many good answers. Now I wonder how the comparison would look with the non swap phone vs. linux swap.
[G1 Android Development] d2dthetide:
Problem

Ran in to a Problem with the screens sort of freezing. I say sort of because I couldn't move off the home screen. But I could bring up the app draw and launch the apps. I launched the log collector and it launched but just looped. Pressed the back button and it stopped and the FC came up After some time the screens were released and I could slide between screens and open folders on screen and scroll through app draw but I can't launch any apps and you can't move any of the icons. When I press the icon it lights but that is it. This all started when I was pressing the home screen to get widgets to pop up. This lasted about 20 min..was going to do nothing....like reboot until someone told me how to send a log but it finall went away and all is good. Is a log collection any good after the fact?
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
Yeah the verdict is still out on compcache, I think. The authors of compcache are certainly helping us out and fixing the bugs we report, so we owe it to them to test it as much as possible :) I think the G1 hardware just doesn't have fast enough memory for it to work well, though. Even if it doesn't work as well as we'd like, it might be more useful on another ARM-based device that gets released soon with better hardware.
[G1 Android Development] _Kyros_:
Nothing bad to report here, everything is working as usual just a little lag here and there but I did have a few suggestions to the Launcher if possible, one was to be able to open an App. when in Menu/Extended/Application drawer instead of adding it back to the App. drawer (don't want to clutter the Home screens with shortcuts) to open it, another one was an option to change the size of the App. drawer from the way it is now to the original way (don't know if this is possible)
[G1 Android Development] kyleds:
yeah... browser starts loading then stops randomly and doesn't load anymore. just keeps freezing. everything else is working fine.
[G1 Android Development] The Spirit:
is the HTC Keyboard within this build? i could switch to it, but doesn´t seem to work when starting the virtual keyboard.
[G1 Android Development] wickednix:
Getting about 10 - 30 seconds of lag now when opening programs. App bar with black screens, then the app loads. Have been runing 3.9 for 24 hours with no reboots.

When first installed, all apps were opening 2-4 seconds. No changes just added music widget on home screen. I am running compcache.

Just rebooted and all apps are opening fast again.
[G1 Android Development] _Kyros_:
Yes it is, make sure you either uncheck Android keyboard or when the Android keyboard comes up press and hold ?123 and press Input Method to change to the HTC one.
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
Ok call me stupid but duh

Ok is there a dummies guide to compcache becasue ive read the tutorial and it gets me as far as setting up and pushing the userinit.sh file and thats it. ive done all that but then whats next. Ive never tried swap or compcache before so im attemtping to expand my knowledge some and try it out. I experience some lagg when using my phone and 3.9 im a heavy user and im thinking this would help with my performance. I read post about this being set and that being set im like ok im obviously missing something the tutorial just tells me how to push the file over thats it. so someone care to point me in the direction of what to do next..or maybe a more complete tutorial then whats posted in the dev section. Or would swap be something easier to adapt to this rom for a noob.
[G1 Android Development] Janis:
Cyanogen sometimes uses terms you have to search, but Ive never seen him be incomplete

And do us a favor, slow down and use grammar and punctuation we can read. You'll likely get better help that way. There are also lots more knowlegeable people than I watching the Q&A forum. This really isn't in the right place, but I can see why you put it here.

Or try downloading Swapper from Market.
[G1 Android Development] The Spirit:
thanks a lot. i didn´t know the thing with ?123 button.
