ok those with issues this is for you. something i tried a couple versions back. if your having a lot of problems try this.

first backup your contacts and what not. also backup what you want on your sd card

next reboot into recovery and get into parted and rm all your partitions

create all new partitions upgrade to ext3

then do a repair and go back into recovery and upgrade to ext4

now do a full wipe and flash new rom. then install your programs.

i did this several versions ago and have over 160 programs that most all work one or doesnt because of donut. however i did this before donut and have a stable build i also have had several themes on each rom and just flashed over them. dont pull your battery that can corrupt your davilk cache if you have to pull it reflash and try again. it should work. still having issue reinstall or fix permissions on the programs not working for you but working for others. the only issue i have had is the home reload which fixing compcache took care over. btw i use my phone to sell g1 and mytouchs.

btw i havnt wiped or lost any programs in like 10 rom flashes and 5 theme flashes.

In 4.0.4 I didn't have a linux swap partition because it didn't seem necessary and it still ran really really fast. But now with 4.1.9.2 I'm seeing a lot of lag when i hit the home button. For the 1.6 firmware is it pretty much necessary that you have a linux swap partition?
[G1 Android Development] jokersax11:
it helps to have swap if you like it. compcache is suppose to be working which helps keep stuff in memory like the home screen(less reloading) 1.6 is not as refined and 1.5 in 4.0.4. mostly because its new and still beta. just like the first hero. once memory leaks and bloat is fixed and maybe some more clever coding it should be alot faster. as of now is more stock 1.6 with some tweaks and new kernel. i hate reloads so i use compcache

Back to 4.1.9.2 after my week long foray into Hero ROMs. Never again! <3 CyanogenMod
[G1 Android Development] Ooglez:
No it doesn't. You haven't tried wiping and reinstalling. Gmail works fine for me on 4.1.9.2.
[G1 Android Development] kerauno:
If you wipe, the PDF viewer will not work by itself.

Try clearing the gmail cache and data in "settings->applications->manage applications->gmail"

Compcache was enabled in 4.0.4 as a default. Compcache was left out of 4.1.9.2. There is a modules.sqf that is floating around this thread. Do a search if you want to install or wait for the next release. Every OS needs some type of swap (cache) to improve performance. You won't need to have a swap partition once cyanogen adds compcache back.

Bluetooth avrcp broken

Yeah i had the same issue with my bluetooth headphone since the last update. the music controls (pause, play stop etc) no longer work. I can pair and hear audio through them still however just cant use the controls. I post this issue in the issue tracker i dont think it was listed anywhere else there. its item #393 you can post here if your having the same issue.

I cleared all davlik-cache
[G1 Android Development] :
im a little confused... to run 4.1.9.2 im suppose to go ahead to load the comcache zip file then load it using ABD for this build to work properly?
[G1 Android Development] Strapt:
I really dont think that this is close to being stable.

I got a LOT of force closes with a lot of those being activity in home.process(or something lilke that)

There was a LOT of black loading screens on almost everything that I hit

Forced closed a lot when I hit the home key from something like text or market or manage apps

when the USB debug mode is on, the top of the screen repeatedly flashes the usb debugging mode when pugged into a WALL charger

it was not a fast reponding ROM by any means .. a lot due to the black loading screens

I had to go back to the stable build 4.0.4 and there is a huge difference .. I love this version

NOTE: I did wipe and flash the ROM a couple times and then even rebooted it like 6 times in a row cuz someone earlier said they thought that helped and it didnt

oh and what is up with that ugly ass camera in this 1.6?? wow lol and no zoom :(
[G1 Android Development] Chosen_on184:
After running this for a few days now i really pushed it today and noticed that it does have its lags .. Mainly playing music then hitting the back button to the home screen it will take a while .. it will show you the black screen then take a while to load the apps on the home screen ..* i think this might be in part to the new Bfs and it sorting itself out during this process*

Battery drains just like any other rom my opinion .. i drained mine completely today just to calibrate it and see if i get any more juice from it tomorrow

Like i said i think the only thing keeping this from being called stable is the loading black screen , occasional fc .. i only experienced one but if you just hit wait it will sort it self out .. and that the pdf app itself doesnt work ..like someone said earlier you can only access from astro or another file manager ..

Aside from that the speed on this is great ..especially the browser .. wiped the cache hasn't force closed on me yet :D
[G1 Android Development] sskkyy:
4.1.9.2 is as smooth & quick as you guys described, appreciate it. :D

However I've got a problem with Google Latitude. It seems that I cannot find this feature on my phone. In the menu icon of Google Maps where "Join Latitude" should be, it says "Clear Map" :confused:

Somebody told me to navigate to Settings >> Security and Location >> Share with Google, and enabled it. It's already done. So I disable and re-enable & then reboot the phone, but Latitude is still not available.

I upgraded it from 4.1.8, without wiping it. Does it matter?
[G1 Android Development] elzee:
Phone refuses to wake up!

OK .. this Rom is handling pretty well.

I do find that it won't handle too many widgets. i'm down to the Power Bar and Picture Gallery widget. Twidget and Weather 'donate' are both out for now as is the Facebook widget.

Biggest issue to date for me however is when I go to USE the phone after leaving it alone for an extended period. It just point blank refuses to wake up!

No doubt this is a BFS issue and can be sorted. I appreciate that this all experimental, so for all you thread police, it's by no means a whinge but an honest observation! :D

I'm running this Rom as it came .. no compcache.

For those whinging about the donut camera .. just buy Camera Zoom and you'll have your ideal camera! Seriously good!

For some reason the touch input likes to auto activate "vibrate on keytouch", and turn of the "sound input".
[G1 Android Development] d2dthetide:
After 2 trys and my phone freezing on reboot I took a hard look at the code and figured out what I was doing wrong. When you said copy zip file to sdcard (lets say under a folder called modules) then unzip it there. I created a new folder in root on sdcard and named it modules. I then copy and pasted the zip file in the folder and unzipped it. Unzipping created a folder within a folder...so....I should have been doing....

cp sd/modules/modules/modules.sqf sys/modules/ What I ended up doing was unzipping on my hard drive and copy pasting into the sdcard folder. That worked using your code. That code fixed the homescreen lag and blackout.

No more music skipping 4.1.9.2. I really like the sound on my phone now. I changed my wma files to mp3 and with the new meltus volume mod the sound is great.

edit: Google maps and my location works for me..quick location. No force close or strange music playing. I wiped going to 4.1.8 so didn't bother for 4.1.9.2

This phone is getting better every day.........Thanks everyone for what you do
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
The camera actually takes better pictures and the shutter speed is where it really shines...theres like no delay thus getting better shots.. There are other apps on the market that offer zoom or you can simply crop the pic which is essentially the same thing.
[G1 Android Development] KuroiZero:
Same issue here. Also numerous hangs on acore. Thanks to cyanogen for all the effort!

OK no black screen problems using only 3G . I will try with wifi on again to see if the black screen problem comes back.

[G1 Android Development] Hummeroid:
Well, this super turbo rom is definitely speedy! I am having one issue though-

In ADB, if I go into shell and give it an ls command, shows first 3 file folders (astro shows a WHOLE lot more than that) and then it disconnects and will not accept adb remount. I can then click mount, and it will mount for a nanosecond before it shows its preparing sd card. (never mounted to pc)

Not sure if I can get a log of it since its IN adb? Maybe. Ill try a wipe/reflash before I do any more complaining.

Still there. Not sure what the issue is, as it worked fine previously.

I can still push/pull and such, just it gives me device offline after an ls command, and cannot remount. Shoot me a message and Ill email you a log, dont know if itll do any good, but let me know if it can help

Well I'd personally rather activate it at the beginning....

But if you mean swap, just swapon /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 (in your userinit.sh)

if you mean compcache, there's instructions (post 6600 in this thread ) to replace a bad modules file.

Severe battery drain

Due to travel I have limited network access at the moment and therefore I'm still on 4.1.7. I see a very severe battery drain on 4.1.6 and 4.1.7, quite unacceptable in the long(er) run. And a big inconvenience when travelling :-/

I see from comments above that this is still occurring on the latest build?

Other than battery drain, I don't seem to have any major issues.

--Tim
[G1 Android Development] SteveTilsed:
:D Anyone have an idea how long!
[G1 Android Development] MagicDude4Eva:
I did not see any battery drain on 4.1.8 and 4.1.9 (currently on 4.1.9.2). I am on 31% and have charged the phone 28 hours ago.
[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
It took me 3-4 hours of wifi and bluetooth tethering (and some robodefense) to get my battery down to 30% yestserday. After a full charge in <6hr, and now 7hrs off the charger, it's at 91%. No 3g, sync on, nothing else on. Battery meter in settings shows 48% cell standby, 46% phone idle, 3% display, 2% voice calls (momentarily testing something), and 2% akmd.

If there's a battery problem with this build (or any of the recent ones) I don't see it. I've been recommending the usual charge cycling and deletion of /data/system/batterystats.bin to re-educate the software on the battery.
[G1 Android Development] tnleeuw:
Well, that sounds hopefull :-)

Did you experience any excessive battery-drain on 4.1.6 / 4.1.7? Or did you not run them long enough to notice?

Cheers,

--Tim
[G1 Android Development] tnleeuw:
That sounds much better than what my G1 does at the moment :-)

I think that I'll try to download 4.1.10 when it's released and after installing that, do as you suggest and delete the battery stats.

Thanks! :-)

--Tim
[G1 Android Development] MagicDude4Eva:
I jumped from 4.0.4 straight into 4.1.7 and was not using it long enough to form an opinion. In all fairness, I am not using data/Wifi excessively in the office, but for about 1-2 hours in the evening.
[G1 Android Development] tnleeuw:
Well just last night, on 4.1.7, my battery drained from 80+% to just over 50% with the phone just idle, 2G only, sync off (roaming, so no bg. data in principle), no wifi no BT on. And this is the picture for pretty much all week since friday.

I'm hoping that I'll get enough access to download 4.1.10 once it's released and then I'll see if the battery drains less quickly on that release! :-)

Cheers,

--Tim

Hi,

Had the same problem, going from 4.0.4 to 4.1.9r2.

Try this:

Format SD using recovery (like AmonRAs), convert ext2 to ext3, then wipe, then apply the new ROM.

This worked for me. Good luck!
[G1 Android Development] giantcrazy:
Battery life seems to be greatly improved in 4.1.9.2 over 4.1.7. I've got the extended battery but with 4.1.7 I went from 80% charged to dead overnight. Now, I get the expected 80% to 65% or so overnight.

Completely broken installation

Well, as excited as I was this version (upgrade from 4.1.5) it has decided to hang during installation all 3 times I tried flashing.

The attempts are chronicled below: (changes in bold)

1. CyanogenMOD Updater > download 4.1.9.2 > reboot > installs > reboot (home+back) > G1 Logo > Cyanogen Android Logo > Logo animation stops for 3 seconds > lit black screen (left overnight in case it needed ALOT of time to work)

2. Reflashed 4.1.5 > download 4.1.9 from site > transfer to USB > Recovery boot > flash 4.1.9.2 ROM > reboot (home+back) > G1 Logo > Cyanogen Android Logo > Logo animation stops for 3 seconds > lit black screen

3. Reflashed 4.1.5 > recovery boot > WIPE > flash 4.1.9.2 ROM > reboot (home+back) > G1 Logo > Cyanogen Android Logo > Logo animation stops for 3 seconds > lit black screen

4. Reflashed 4.1.5 > wrote this post.​

I've flashed a million times before so I feel like I can say "I know what I'm doing" but maybe there is something amiss here.. Any ideas would be great.

No problems here either. The phone sat idle for 9 hours and it went from 100% to 98%. All I have is Weather & Flip Donate, a search widget and a music widget. I am wondering if all these issues people are having are not widget, app related and not the rom.

I also have it themed with the new Stericson lock screen, and have zero battery drain issues, zero force closes, zero anr's.

[G1 Android Development] rayberto:
Taking a Vote

My favorite build to date is 4.0.4, but I love the potential of BFS in 4.1.x.

I would like to solicit everyone's opinion. I would like to see BFS compiled into the 4.0.4 kernel.

I am thinking we would get blazing speed, the HTC camera, older program compatibility, most of the compelling features of donut and stability.

Just a thought. What do you think?
[G1 Android Development] roadrunnerx7:
i had a SIMILAR problem. my nandroid stopped working so i started flashing and wiping things. eventually that got fixed(i think caus ei upgraded my spl) but now i was getting black lit screens and boot loops. what fixed it for me was REMOVING any homealternative. so i used to ahve open home as my default home. my phone would only get to the lit black screen or bootloop. when i wiped, i did a test and only when i had anything besides my real home, as a home default, it wouldnt boot. so i removed it and it works perfectly now :) now im not sure if you even had a home alternative but if you did you could try that.. im not entirely sure what you were doing though. nor have i tried using these roms (im on 4.0.4). but just a suggestion.

they said it could be beacuse the home alternatives need to be updated to run with donut or something.
