Big problem with new updates since yesterday...

WHen I go into Search for Market, or G-mail my phone freezes and restarts everytime.

When going to browser it does a force close everytime, I can't even use it anymore.

What's going on?

I have the Android G1.

I wiped it works now. Is there anyway to circumvent the wipe so i don't have to lose my apps every single time i wipe.
[G1 Android Development] CompactDstrxion:
Try disabling USB debugging in settings. You will lose root access until you reenable it though

Having an issue. Running 3.6.8.1 with EXT2 partition and Fat32. Recently turned on airplane mode and got the dreaded "Damaged SD card notification". What's weird is that the EXT2 partition is working fine (all my apps). It's the Fat32 that's hosed. Any suggestions to fix this issue?
[G1 Android Development] CompactDstrxion:
Are you saying I don't need to worry about burning the internal flash? I know flashing roms will eventually kill it but all the reads/writes associated with swapping in compcache will kill it faster won't it? And an SD card is far more easily replacable than internal flash so I prefer to use that, unless there is really no reason for concern.
[G1 Android Development] trigeek:
Compcache runs in RAM, not ROM.
[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
Compcache uses the RAM in the device (which is getting more reads/writes per second than you can count) not the NAND flash memory that is the 'hard disk'/ permanent storage.

The only way you'd fry the internal NAND flash memory is by having a swapfile in /cache or something other than /system/sd/ or mmblk0p3.

Global Search and internal memory

Hello,

I've noticed since few updates earlier that I cannot type anything into the search widget. It won't let me do anything. I also removed and installed widget. I believe this happened from the last update the changelog indicated that global search is back. Sorry I cannot give more info as I thought this would be fixed in the following update, but has not so far. I didn't see anything in prior posts about it and tried to search.

Also noticed that although apps are installed on sd card, my internal memory gone down to 50 mb. I moved cash to the sd card. I think application like CoPilot Live has installed something there as I noticed that right after its initial installation. Before installing CoPilot, I already had sd card partitioned, but I resized it to allow a bigger fat32 for maps. Could that be something to do with it?

Thanks

insmod /system/lib/modules/wlan.ko is broken.

Cyan, since at least 4.01 wlan.ko appears to be broken. insmod complains

about "invalid module format." The result is that WiFi cannot any longer be

I searched the thread and couldn't find anything relevant. My phone seems to not be synching with Gmail properly. I have to manuually synch it to see new emails. I'm on 4.04 and this just started happening when I upgraded. I do have auto-synch checked. Any ideas?
[G1 Android Development] mmor101:
Does the update.zip need to be left on the card after flashing?
[G1 Android Development] CompactDstrxion:
No.

Thanks to everyone who clarified the compcache thing for me. I'm going to experiment some more.

Hey guys.. I am new to the android world, and I have been reading up on this rom..

My main question is, Will this work on any Android phone? I have the Galaxy.. Now from what I have read, I dont think it will.. but I have not seen a definitive answer anywhere as to if it will work or not. I skimmed this thread and did a search for "Galaxy" but couldnt find anything in here either.

I dont want to try and load a rom to my phone that will brick it, since its brand new and all that :p

Unlock after flight mode reboot

When I am in Flight Mode, an reboot, I have not to unlock my Phone with the PIN.

I know that I have to unlock it, when I want to turn the Flight Mode off, but this isn't the problem, because my data isn't save as long as anyone could steel and play and charge my Phone as long as he want :S

I think this is a little security hole and I do not know whether it is in the official ROM too but it would be nice and saver if that would be changed.

$

But your ROM, cyan, is really fast and stable and saves a lot of battery, compared to the official TMo ROM. :) Thx 4 this!
[G1 Android Development] ShreddinPB:
Thats what I figured :(

so to get it to work I assume the OS needs a recompile for the galaxys hardware/CPU?

Help for a noob...browser not responding after 4.0.4 upgrade

Yesterday I flashed my phone to 4.0.4 and tried a couple of themes that did not work well. Right now using JCHero theme, and cannot get any Internet access. :mad: Every time I try to access a web page, I get a timeout and a "Page not found" error. Is the browser controlled by the theme or the ROM? I reflashed the ROM again just before posting this and still have no Internet access...this includes Google Maps, etc. Sorry if this is posted in the wrong place, I am just hoping someone has a quick answer.

Is there any way that you can add the full Exchange support (contacts, calendar, email) from the Hero ROMS and add it to this? If this ROM had the full exchange support, I would never have to switch to another ROM. Just a thought. :-)

This ROM completely rocks though as is.

Unzip this to your sdcard fat32 partition http://n0rp.chemlab.org/android/audio-resources.zip

It is located on the first page with the rom link. The media files were removed from the rom to save space.
[G1 Android Development] djosiah:
quite a few (almost all) sounds were taken out to make the build size smaller (i think) but you can get them back by downloading the audio resources file in the original post. save to the root of ur sd card and flash through recovery :)

Edit: Damn too slow :p
[G1 Android Development] dcorrea:
I'm pretty sure you need to download the audio pack which contains more sounds. You can download it at www.cyanogenmod.com

**edit**

Or just look at the first page

This has been answered maybe a million times. :) The answer is NO. Check out the FAQ's on the first page.

DO NOT try to flash the audio resouces. You must UNZIP it to your sdcard.
[G1 Android Development] robbiekhan:
Anyone confirm if partitioning the SD card then letting the rom port apps to sd improves performance?

At least as much as this article:

http://lifehacker.com/5350347/speed-up-and-back-up-your-rooted-android-phone

Makes it out to be?

I have a Magic 32B btw.

Also I have been seeing some weird USB issues with the SD card lately, like the card automounting back to the phone when I mounted it for PC connection.

It only automounts back to the phone if I run any disk tools on it like disk management or format disk/scan disk for errors etc.

It's not a sd card issue as I have scanned it via a card reader and no problems were found.
[G1 Android Development] raysilverstone:
do i have to put these audio files in the root of the SD once unziped or in a special folder. My SD is empty right now i am working on partitioning my SD.
[G1 Android Development] bkmo:
They are arranged in a folder called AUDIO in the zip. I prefer to unzip them to a folder called MEDIA myself. The rom will find them ok no matter where they are located.

Hey guyz, does neone know why i cant get this rom to work ? im coming from xRom 1.4 and when i wipe and flash this rom, it doesnt go pass the first screen. I dont have a ext partition so wipin cant b a issue. I cant even run "adb logcat" it just exits the prompt. I included a picture.

I've seen a few people concerned that my user.conf was slowing their phone down. I'm going to install 4.0.4 now and make sure it is working. My user.conf is based off of Huanyu's which is also what Cyan uses so it should be fine. But I will check it out for myself and I will let you know. If it needs to be updated I will re-post it.

I just flashed this rom and have a few questions.

How do i change the camera output folder to the old folder?

Is there or will there ever be the 1x button on the browser?

Is there a theme port for cyanogen roms? I tired to use the themeporter 1.2 i found on xda but it doesnt work for me.

Also is there anyway to change the launcher from 5x6 icon to 4x5 icons? I tried to adb push the old 1.51 ADP launcher but i get FC
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
It looks like Cyanogen 4.0.4 is not performing the same way with my settings. I believe it is because of updates to Compcache including the new swap free notify setting. I'm working on reconfiguring. I thought swap free notify would make things run faster, which it still might, it could just need a different setup. I'll post back again when I know more.

factory reset?

Ever since rooting my phone and installing cyanogen mod and recovery my phone doesn't seem to do a clean swipe/factory reset any more. It doesn't matter if I do it via cyanogen recovery or via the phone setting menu. I have ext3 and no swap partition. Swiping the phone doesn't do anything, not even deleting bookmarks or browser cache. Any suggestions where I'm going wrong?

Install Unsuccessful...

Hey, I tried to intall the CM Updater so I could update to the newer builds of CyanogenMod. My G1 is Rooted with v1.4 Cyan

I didn't realize mine was such an old copy. :(

Anyway... I don't understand how to update to the current build and when I try to install the CMupdater with Apps Installer or Oi File Manager, it say the install was unsuccessful but doesn't tell me anything else about why.

Any help is appreciated! I bet a lot of the problems I'm currently experiencing are because I'm on the wrong build of this. :(

[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I've had a lot of people tell me that my user.conf had made a huge improvement on 4.0.4. I even had a couple of people email me when they saw my previous post to tell me that they have been running it without a problem. I made some changes to the user.conf and everything I did made the performance worse. So I decided to dig a little deeper. Here is what I found out.

I went into the recovery console and ran e2fsck /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 -f manually. I had a ton of bad blocks that had to be repaired and about 20% of my files were not contiguous. So I repartitioned my sd card, wiped my phone, and reinstalled the ROM. After that everything smoothed out and performed well.

If anyone is having trouble with 4.0.4 using my user.conf I suggest you try what I did. I'd suggest you add a 32MB linux swap partition while you are doing it so you can run backing swap. If it still seems slow after that, PM me and I will help you figure it out if you would like.

Edit: BTW, I hadn't loaded a Cyanogen ROM in a while. It has some really nice features that weren't there the last time I used it. Great work Cyanogen. Keep it up.

Ok, I did it. Worked like a champ and no surprises. Now, I realized that I didn't quite backup or export everything I needed off the Cupcake CRC1 image. I did back it up though. So I'm thinking I can:

1) re-boot into the recovery console

2) wipe the phone

3) restore the backed up Cupcake CRC1 using Nandroid

4) boot into Cupcake

5) export all the stuff I need to the SD card

6) re-install the 1.4 recovery image

7) repeat the steps I took to install 4.0.4

8) import the missing data

Am I thinking straight?

Would it be possible to add a Smart Dialer like the one in Rogers ROM instead of the android dialer? I think that would make this ROM perfect along with Global Search! Can't wait for global search, exciting times ahead! Thanks cyanogen!

[Q] - Slow on boot?

Anyone else noticing that when they boot up their phone on 4.0.4 it is Very slow to load your apps? When I get to my home screen and pull up the app drawer it is usually blank - no apps. I'll close try and move to screen 1 or 3 and can not. Pull up the drawer and some apps will be there, but not all of them.

After another minute the phone seems to run smooth again. Anyone else noticing this?

If not, how should I fix this? Wipe and redo the ROM? How can I get rid of my theme to make sure that is not the problem (community hero)?
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
I think it has to do with the late mounting of the SD card. At least if you have your apps on SD.

I've noticed something weird with the latest version of this ROM, I have one of the HTC adapters I use in my car to plug into my headunit, this one in particular,

And when I have it plugged into the phone the screen will not shut off, even if I press the end button. I just have a headphone jack plugged into the adapter, I have not tried it with the headphone jack and usb power yet.
[G1 Android Development] raphy3:
Not sure but maybe check and see if you have it set to not turn of screen while connected to usb? I think it's in the development settings.

I'm having a couple of other minor issues. Want to see if anyone else has them or if it's a problem on my end. The Tmobile visual voice mail won't reply to voicemails correctly. If you're listening to say voicemail number 3, and you hit call back that number, it will instead dial the number corresponding to the first voicemail in the list. No matter which you try to call it will dial the number from the first voicemail in the list. When you don't have any selected / aren't listening to a voicemail and instead are looking at the list of available voicemails, and you long press one of them and instead of selecting to listen you select to call back, it will then dial the correct number. So it makes the issue only minor.

The other problem is with the email app. I use it for yahoo mail, and it does not sync back my actions to my yahoo mail (I am using imap, the way the phone wants to set it up by default). If I delete emails they'll be deleted on my phone, but not on my computer when I log into ymail from a web browser. Any emails I send using the email app from my phone do get sent, but in the web browser on my PC they show up as unread drafts in the draft folder, and don't go into the sent mail folder. If anyone knows how to fix it let me know. It's also somewhat minor since I don't use yahoo a whole bunch.

cheers

4.0.4 issues with gmail.

I just recently noticed that I can't seem to send email through gmail. It always gets stuck at the "sending..." phase. I'm running 4.0.4 and I also noticed the same problem in 4.1.1. I can receive emails though, just can't send. Any thoughts?
[G1 Android Development] Charrion:
Just tested with my adapter, even with the option to keep the screen lit while connected to usb on the screen turns off after a while.

Perhaps a logcat of what's happening while the adapter is connected would help.
[G1 Android Development] RAQemUP:
4.0.4 now mounts the SD after bootup so you need to wait a minute after turning it on before you actually try to run anything to make sure your programs load fine and you ignore the force closes. Obviously apps2sd is affected by this.

You can email it also. You may want to crop it down to the relevant time period since log collector grabs everything and makes for a very long post.

[G1 Android Development] njuncos:
you dont need a separate partition for compcache to work, so no, it has nothing to do with compcache.

something leftover from a previous, non-cyan build may be causing it.

i would say reformat your ext partition, if you have one, and try a wipe and reflash

maybe someone else can help you further, i dunno.

Compcache is not enabled by default people!! Stop blaming it for your problems unless YOU enabled it.
