[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] innerspace:
excuse me sir.

ok, a suggestion. goto quicklinks and edit your sig. let us know what rom, radio and spl you are running. second, do you have adb? no? get adb installed so you can run logcat and we can get an idea what exactly is going on with your device. third: what is the history of your phone? what process did you follow to get where you are now? when is the last time you wiped? etc. etc. etc.

if you have questions about the aforementioned items, search. apply google-fu accordingly.

We can't help if we don't have something tangible to work with. internets are not magic, simply shouting "my stuff is b0rked" will not automagically repair your problem. harry potter is an iphone user. you are not harry potter, and that phone in your hand is no iphone.

i'd love to help you but simply cannot until you give me something firmer to work with.

Define doesn't work. Does it not connect? Does it seem to connect then you lose all audio? Does it stab you in the face? What does it do, exactly. Have you updated your radio?

This is a "my car doesn't work, how do I fix it?" kinda thread..

We need info in order to help you!

Did it work before?

what have you done in order to break it?

What are the errors?

What version af ROM are you running?

What radio version are you running?

etc etc etc..

BTW bumping the thread doesn't help either, it just will make a nice padlock appear on the thread, just like by magic..

And I moved the thread from DEVELOPMENT (!) to Q&A..

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] innerspace:
ok... seems like we got some info here.

It seems that someone else has been modding your phone for you. Installing custom ROMS is nothing to be taken lightly, you should really research things a bit to get a better understanding of how your phone actually works.

I wasn't trying to be mean, please understand that you posted a help request in a forum designated for development of new applications and customization of the system images that make up the operating system you see when your phone boots up. Posts like these have become a growing problem lately and many users here are getting frustrated, myself included.

First of all, goto settings, about phone.

Write down the following information:

Model Number

Firmware version

Baseband version

Kernel Version

Mod Version (if its there)

Build Number (if its there)

Post that info in a thread in Q&A, where this thread belonged to begin with and maybe we can actually get somewhere.

[Touch HD General] stsalkit:
I have been having this problem for sometime now, but I just had enough... Every so often, say a few weeks, my HD suddenly and without me doing anything special (i.e. installing a new program etc.), "looses" the storage card i.e. it cannot access it anymore. I need to reboot in order for HD to read it again. But then after a few minutes (enough for me to copy data from), it looses it again and so on. In order to correct it I have to reformat the card so it does not happen for a few weeks until the next time.

Note that this is the standard storage card that came with my HD. I did not flash any cooked roms, I am wearing the newest official version (1.56).

It just happend again... and I am getting p... off. Any help?
[Touch HD General] Matthes42:
There´s already a thread discussing this point (here or in the rom development section of blackstone. i cant´t really remember) take a look at it.

so far i can say: try to format your card. if it doesn´t work try to format it using a digicam because a sd-card reader at your pc wouldn´t work either

I am liking the Hero software and will diff be putting it on my Mytouch when some figures out how to root that phone.

1. I thought I would have more internal mem from the G1 after I did the part on the memory card in console? Hero running laggy and I thought the apps would run from my memory card ?

2. Bluetooth, notification lights not working when I recieve texts?

3. Laggy laggy lol it's awsome software
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Diceman4:
1. They should run from the SD if it is correctly set up. You should be running with a linux-swap partition also. JAC says to not use anything bigger than 32mb but I have mine at 128mb with swappiness at 60 and haven't seen a loading screen since first boot.

2. BT and LED are not working in any Hero build. JAC is getting closer to getting BT fixed, and I bet LED is next.

3. The lag should abate soon after adjusting you swap settings (The swappiness is set in the a2sd.sh file)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FenderGuy:
i did a fat32, ext2, and linux-swap part in the console

Please explain #3?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
So you can abd pull the a2sd.sh and adjust the swappiness settings from there and push it back?

As for A2SD still using up space, I believe the phone needs to be restarted for apps to be moved to the ext partition.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FenderGuy:
How can I tell if the apps are running the sd card? I thought the JACHeroski 2.7.4 already had the swapper in it?

I did take the twitter and books marks widgets off the main screen seems to be quicker...I would like optimize my G1 so the rom runs smooth, so far i like the rom
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Diceman4:
If you don't have ADB, then type in the terminal:

$su

#cp /system/bin/a2sd /sdcard

Open the file in a text editor from your computer and change the echo 30 > swappiness value to whatever swapiness you want (Mine is 60 but I have a bigger swap partition. If you only have a 32mb partition I would leave it at 30, but I would recomnmend having 64mb and changing it to 60 swappiness)

then save to file back to the root of you sd card and type in terminal again:

$su

#mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

#cp /sdcard/a2sd /system/bin/a2sd

#reboot

and your swap settings are updated !
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FenderGuy:

su
cp /system/bin/a2sd /sdcard

Then edit the file and save it back to the card

Then use this command to push it back, then reboot.

su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cp /sdcard/a2sd /system/bin/a2sd
reboot

Just make sure that after you've edited it and want to save you don't save it as a text file, which would add .txt

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strapt:
looks like your MD5 hash there is the leaked .nhb file used for the UK version to get root.

are you placing the WHOLE .zip on the memory card or just the .nhb file (which I belive it should just be the .nhb file like it is for the US version)

so you got the whole card set to FAT32 which is good

then you placed the .NHB file into the ROOT of the memory card (no folders)

You held down the camera + Power buttons and got into the bootloader

-Did you see the rainbow screen?

-Did you see the grey screen that said "press action key to start update" ( action key is the trackball)

and after it updates .. if it did or does go that far (it will say ok next to each line and completed) the you reboot the phone by pressing the Send + End + menu keys at the same time to reboot the phone from that grey screen.

NOTE: this is for the US version .. I am not really sure if this applies the same for the UK version ...

ALSO I found this for the UK version .. its a little different for the key presses .. not sure if they are right but here they are

1.Copy image file DREAIMG.nbh to the SD card

2.Turn the device power off and insert SD card

3.Hold Camera button, and press Power button to entry Boot loader mode

4.Press Power button to start upgrade procedure (the US version is the trackball as action key .. not sure if it makes a difference)

5.After it finishes, press the trackball and perform a soft reset by pressing "Call" + "Menu" + "End" to reboot. (not sure why you hit the trackball the US version doesnt require that .. just the Send+End+menu to reboot)

THEN the rest that you need to follow after it flashes (if you get that far) is all on this link here

http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Rooting_Android

steps are from that site

1.Restart your phone

2.At your phones desktop hit the <enter> key twice and then type "telnetd" and press <enter> again

3.Download an Android Telnet client and connect to localhost. If you are unable to connect, try steps 1 and 2 over again until you can.

4.you now have root!

intersetingly ... this method there is no recovery image or spl to download anywhere in this like there is in the US version ... may just the differences between the two phones BUT if you really wanted to compare or take a look at the US version to decide for yourself then go here:

How to check my SD card's CID? i just cant run the Qmat...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yahrghrr:
Okay pardon the bad formatting, I copied this from a site I googled and saved it as a html file. Basically you get your device rooted without Qmat or any WinCE device:

1. insert Transcend 8GB sd card into G1 (sandisk may not work. Lower capacities will work and may even be better. Other makes will also work)

2. download Terminal Emulator from the market and open it on G1

3. type “cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:*/cid” (without the quotes), and keep the code given (something like 1c5356555344202010041c71f0008c5e)

4. Reverse the code byte-wise ( my 1c 53 56 55 53 44 20 20 10 04 1c 71 f0 00 8c 5e became 5e8c00f0711c0410202044535556531c)

5. Overwrite first two digits with 00s: 008c00f0711c0410202044535556531c

6. On your pc browser, go to http://revskills.de/pages/goldcard.html, paste your code and email address and hit continue (while thinking “thank you viperbjk” or donating some money)

7. format sd card to fat32 (may be good to rewrite partition table)

8. download RC7 from http://koushikdutta.blurryfox.com/G1/DREAMIMG-RC7.zip and extract

9. download goldcard from your email address (goldcard.img, less than 440 bytes)

10. copy DREAIMG.nbh to SD card (CASE sensitive! Filename very important)

11. unmount /dev/sdb1

12. type in terminal: “sudo dd if=goldcard.img of=/dev/sdd” (result: 0+1 records in, 0+1 records out, 384 bytes (384 B) copied) (assuming your sd is in /dev/sdd)

13. pull out sd card (now goldcard!) and insert into g1

14. hold camera button and press power button once

15. wait until the bootloader finds the rom and push power button when prompted. (if you do not see this instruction, you have done something wrong)

16. Continue with flashing recovery, HardSPL, RC8 etc...

If you do it exactly according to the steps listed, you should get your device rooted. I know mine worked :)

EDIT: Bleh, formatting was so bad, I had to fix it. Anyway, once you've done rooting, you should look for ways to change your keyboard layout. The German QWERTZ drove me nuts so I remapped mine to good ol' QWERTY

EDIT2:

How to write the raw sectors without having Cygwin or a Linux device:

- download HxD Hex Editor and install

- open program and go to "extra" and then "open disk"

- choose physical disk and then the removable disk. that is the same as your memory card. I've you don`t know with one it is. just remove the card and restart the program and you will see witch one is disappeared.

- uncheck open as readonly !!!!!!!

- go to "extra" again and the open disk image.

- open the goldcard.img witch you have created from Viper BJK website.

- press ok (512 is fine) en then "select all" and "copy"

- go to the removable disk tab and select offset 00000000 till offset 00000170 go to "edit" and then past write.

- save it
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] torturedsoul802:
You can't create the HTC GoldCard with your G1 or with a card reader. You need a phone running Windows Mobile (WindowsCE). It's the only thing (that I know of) that can write the goldcard.img to the correct RAW sectors.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yahrghrr:
You can actually. The process has been documented on the forums but it's in the middle of one of the threads linked earlier. Or you can just follow the guide I posted above. That'll guide you through the entire goldcard creation process.

It works, I did it for my German continental G1. Though there are reports that some Sandisk cards report wrong CID numbers. Mine gave the right one :)

EDIT: There's a way to write the raw sectors without using Cygwin (for sudo if you don't have a Linux box). If I recall correctly, I used HxD to perform that process. Might be wrong, I'll have to check when I get back home.

Are you sure? I had the Mytouch for 3 weeks and I was impressed with the speeds of that phone vs my G1, the mytouch also had more internal mem
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ClintonH:
The Mytouch has a stripped down ROM, so it runs fast. The Hero ROM would lag because it is a resource hog, runs on widgets. The Rogers Magic (my phone) has the same specs as the Hero minus the 5mp camera and headphone jack so it runs the Hero ROM the same.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] briggs81:
Can you check your cpu speed on that thing? The Magic is suppose to have an MSM 7200 chip that runs at 400MHz, not 528MHz like the Hero or Rogers Dream (MSM 7201a).

But the HTC site says that the 7200 is running at 528MHz.. so unless it's a typo, they must have overclocked the 7200.

7200

7201a

Then of course phonearena says that the htc magic (generic one i guess?) has the 7200a, which runs at 528MHz.. oie..
