2.3.3 black screen

Well, it's the next day and I still can't get it to boot after flashing the expansion pack 2.3.3... anyone else experiencing this when trying to do ADP DRC83+2.3.3 after a clean wipe (not an upgrade)?

Attached is an ADB dump taken while the phone was just cycling with the black screen displayed.

In the meantime, can someone post up a link to 2.3.2 or 2.3.1?
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
You devs and your fancy update.zip's and stuff. :) I've updated my original guide to point here.
[G1 Android Development] Shady Gambino:
Thanks everyone for all the help and suggestions.

Enom, you're awesome man. Your dedication is much appreciated.
[G1 Android Development] bitter1:
Just to be sure, since upgrading to 2.3.3 and even reinstalling it, my Google Voice is full of hate.

I changed to AOSP and BUUF (from scratch, and btw, went like buttah) but it is still full of hate. Force closes over and over and over. The weather widget suddenly isn't much better.

Reboot doesn't seem to help.

Is this a known issue? I haven't seen that as a recent concern, or is it specific to my lucky self?
[G1 Android Development] cyrus13:
I am having the same problem with google voice constantly FC with the hero and then enoch theme. I think it may be framework related or something. It is just a wild guess.
[G1 Android Development] Kerns_JW:
Enom, once again great job - not sure where we would all be without you.

I started using the buuf theme and noticed lockscreen was not enhanced. Assume it was the theme issue not yours because of comments and info on his page. There was a metamorph fix to enhance it. After some digging and thinking I gave the metamorph a try. Worked, phone works great

** edited I realized that metamorph was pulling the jar and png items and replacing. The theme template simply is rom specific for location of files

Thanks again
[G1 Android Development] Vlad83:
Enom, do I remove the existing maps through expsetup prior to doing this or just flash the update?
[G1 Android Development] f00dstamps:
I did not remove the original and just ran the update.zip through recovery and my Google Maps 3.3 works great.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
But it doesn't happen unthemed?

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] Shady Gambino:
Just a nugget to chew on (as if you didn't have enough already), Transit Lines layer still isn't showing up in Maps, with the 3.3.0 update.zip that was posted. All my other layers show up, even My Maps. I tried enabling wifi, as maybe the layer was too data intensive, but no luck.

I'm completely baffled, so if anyone wants to suggest anything, I'm all ears.
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
Where are you looking? I assume you're able to turn it on (initially from the "More Layers" submenu), but you're just not seeing anything? I have no problem looking at MARTA lines in Atlanta, New York City's transit lines, or the T in Boston.
[G1 Android Development] cyrus13:
So far, it has not happened yet. If it does, i'll immediately let you know :D
[G1 Android Development] bitter1:
Google voice hated me both ways, the weather widgy was only themed it seems.

I am trying to clean out and install from the market again and see what the deal is. I noticed that can clear it up sometimes but the force close on this was so annoying I couldn't finish a text message before telling it to go away three times. The rest seems fine honestly. It's fast and pretty. Everyone else I know has an iPhone around me. . .and some jealousy.

Mwuah ha haaa!

But I digress.

decreased battery life,

Is anyone having issues regarding battery life after installing v2.3.3 ? I am currently using ADO/AOSP with expansion pack ? (im running MT3G 3 partitions 96 linux-swap) I do have a lot of apps, but I believe that I read in previous posts NOT to use task killer.....

Any suggestions or is anyone else having the same issues ?

Thank you in advance for your help and Thank you for such a great rom
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Vlad,

I am unable to reproduce this issue. When I use option 15 in expsetup to remove the WorkMail app, it works everytime. Even through reboots, etc.

So I'm not sure mate.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
I do not yet ... I must get to some testing on it. Will let you know if I find something.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] f00dstamps:
Thanks Enom. I was able to upload a smaller youtube video but haven't tried a bigger one yet. The audio from the camera recording still isn't working but I guess no one else appears to be having the same problem. Thanks for your efforts.

maps

This map business is getting rediculous! Is there anything I can do to allow my G1 to receive and install updates to google maps from the market??
[G1 Android Development] xyrcncp:
Yeah, stick with a stock ROM. Problem solved!

Hooray beer!
[G1 Android Development] Kerns_JW:
Vlad,

Had the same issue with mail and pdfviewer. Don't think its happened since the last couple upgrades. To fix before I would use su manager and the search function to find mail and pdf and I would find the data and apks items still floating around. Just find them and delete.
[G1 Android Development] rfeige:
that's a helpful remark....I just think that even with a custom rom it shouldn't be dependent on the dev for google map updates forever
[G1 Android Development] Vlad83:
Yeah, I've tried that among other things, problem is it re-appears after reboot. Seems fixed after latest attempt to erase .../ep.version then remove through expsetup in 2.3.3

Everything is running nice and smooth... Looks like you are due for another drink Enom...

Please consider 2.0 dialer and the 3G hack for next release
[G1 Android Development] f00dstamps:
Enom,

I went through the same process as I did when I used your update.zip to upgrade to 3.3.0. However, with 3.3.1, It doesn't have the Google Maps icon but it shows a window with a sprocket in the corner. When I try to run the application, it says, "Application is not installed on your phone"

I tried this process twice.
[G1 Android Development] Kerns_JW:
I had the google voice fc issue when I switched to buuf. I read the theme thread and it was a glitch on there that was listed. Couldn't find if he said he fixed it. it only happened to me once, no issues since. Not sure if it had anything to do with using his metamorph and maps update.
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
Lucid Script

hey enom,

have you been adding the latest script into some of the updates? i made a modification due to some linking problems when checking existence of /expstick and where it's located .. v1.60.44 is the latest correction
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Did you check the app drawer to see if you have maps there?

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
No man ... sry ... I haven't updated recently. I'll make it a point to do so on next update.

Also ... PS ... I owe you a e-mail response ... just busy man, sry.

:o

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] f00dstamps:
I just checked that and it is not there. Strange because I used the same steps as I did to upgrade to v3.3.0.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
You are correct ... much to contemplate here ... previously Google ripped maps off the Market ... which was very frustrating ... which is what led to it's solidification as an inclusion in my ROM.

Gonna let things play out a bit more.

If GMAPs disappears from the Market again ... you'll thank me for including it. :p

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Try re-applying the update once more and let me know.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] f00dstamps:
I just reapplied it for the 3rd time. However, for this 3rd time, I went ahead and re-downloaded the v3.3.1 but it did not work. I still have the funny icon and Maps is not in my application drawer.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
I was able to reproduce this .. sit tight looking into it.

[G1 Android Development] qwerty3656:
Meltus Max Volume

Everytime I do an update, one thing I do is push the Meltus Max Volume files. Is there any reason I shouldn't? It is not already loaded in the expansion pack, right?
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
That's right, though you can also do this via lucid:

# lucid -au vX

...where X is the version of Meltus you want.
[G1 Android Development] jordanjay29:
Consider adding it as an option in expsetup? Removing Maps and rewriting the package to be able to download maps from the Market. As well as an option to add Maps back in properly.

Also, do your map updates change anything that was altered between 2.3.2 and 2.3.3? I'm still on 2.3.2 and I have little motivation to upgrade since the previous 3 times have required a wipe each time. I'd like to use the labs features, but I'd rather not wipe my phone just for that.

I'm considering olearyp's method just for convenience, although it's anything but.
[G1 Android Development] here.david:
I found that if I deleted all maps files -I had them in:

System/app and Expstick/vsapps

I was then able to download from Market
[G1 Android Development] bitter1:
Hesitate to say too soon but my Google Voice seems to be ok since cleaning everything out and installing from the market.

As for the maps problems a lot seem to be having, following the steps of deleting it from the ext partition and using the .zip worked just dandy.

Everything seems fine except my battery usage is up, either a byproduct of me screwing with the phone too much or I need to underclock when sleeping again.
[G1 Android Development] BloodyWasHere:
i know this is kinda off topic...but ... 10 minutes isnt enough. the alarm only allows 10 minutes of snooze time.. is there any way to increase that with some magical code or edits or something??? i dont wanna go through the insurance people because i wound up waking up an hour late for work with my phone smashed to bits :-(
[G1 Android Development] ShermCraig:
Snooze time

You're right, that is off-topic! But a GREAT question! Please keep us posted if you find a solution.
[G1 Android Development] ShermCraig:
here.david: Can you please explain in more detail? I could not find anything map related in system/app and could not even find a folder called expstick. Thanks!

[G1 Android Development] mobilx:
Just to mention that with exp pack 2.3.3 my bt headset works fine. I dont know what you have done but now I can pair it correctly. Also I think that there is a little improvement with volume level of the loudspeaker.
[G1 Android Development] 94wolfpack:
I am also seeing some pretty heavy battery usage with this rom... usually drained in ~8-10 hours with minimal usage. i'd like to start over and remove all of the exp settings. I know how to wipe the system but not sure how to do a wipe of the partition as well.

Can any one give an example of wiping the partition (or point me to a link)?

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] ShermCraig:
Any updates on the maps issue? I know you said you were able to replicate the issue. Please and thanks! :-)
[G1 Android Development] marty22877:
i've noticed the battery thing too, i've also noticed that my bars for my signal for some reason drop down to 1 bar when normally it's full bars, but if i reset the phone it goes back to full bars.
[G1 Android Development] L0rdDash:
just chiming in on the battery seeming to drain faster. i tether to get online and noticed today(from about 10 to noon) that while tethered via USB my battery dropped to a lil above half from full. Iv noticed that my phone seems to be getting warmer than it was with the previous exppack with USB tether also.

Its almost totally dead now after no use at all sense noon. So once its back to full charge im going to reboot and do some testing and watch the battery info in spare parts. will get back with you tonight if i see any thing my self that could be causing this.

Other than this seems fast and stable as usual

Im running the Tmo US build
[G1 Android Development] cyrus13:
Wow, I use the USB Tether on my laptop and I do not experience any battery drain in fact I get the opposite effect. It might be the USB voltage level, but it's just a guess. :eek:
[G1 Android Development] L0rdDash:
Ya sense iv started to use usb tether iv not had any drop in battery while tethering today was the first time i noticed it. may have just been a bad connection with the plug. it seems to be charging now and im tetherd over usb so i dont know from noon till about 3 i hadnt used my phone at all and i did see some major drop in battery (from half to yellow bar). going offline so i can plug into wall plug and fully charge so i can do some tests. im thinking that a new app i installed may have been behind that drain from noon to 3 tho so we shall see
[G1 Android Development] Paul Shirley:
Not sure I trust it to show up to date results but OverclockWidget is showing the clock maxed out immediately after waking from sleep and just staying there. Very occasionally it starts slower. Doesn't seem to matter how idle my G1 is - not using any unusual services apart from "Skype for 3".

Maybe something in the clock control got borked?

Trouble With Maps

i used the option in expsetup to uninstall GoogleMaps .. then i went to the Market and installed the update .. but i also have my script .. i don't know if that played into anything

# lucid -app Maps drc92

this will download the Maps.apk and Maps.odex .. however .. i pulled this off a non-modified myTouch .. it was supposed to be Maps 3.3.0 but came up as Maps 3.1 or something .. but the Market allowed me to update
[G1 Android Development] 94wolfpack:
For some reason this didn't work for me. I'd like to just do a complete wipe and start over but I am not sure how to wipe the partition. Any help?

edited to say: It did remove the Maps.apk... but it won't let me install Maps from the market.

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] lordofsilence:
I had to stick with v2.2.1,so no problem regarding maps,after that version I haven´t been able to get it installed on my g1,I don´t know the reason and I do all my upgrades from scratch.
[G1 Android Development] revengineer:
First of all: Thanks enom for creating a great ROM for the MT3G. This is entirely awesome. It is people like you that make Android such a terrific platform.

On the battery use issue, I noticed the usage increasing with v2.3.x versions, simultaneous with the speed boost of the ROM. Could it be that the increase in speed comes at the price of increased battery use?

[G1 Android Development] bitter1:
Ok soooo. . .my Google Voice was alright yesterday. . .now it's back to worthless today. I had my phone off for a bit and when I brought it back up I had a voice mail and that apparently scared it to death.

I hasn't worked since, despite rebooting and multiple animal sacrifices. It force closes over and over and over and. . .I have to stab the home key just right to get out of the loop. Ditto with the weather widget. I even removed the weather widgets from the home screen (not through expsetup. . .yet) and it still pops up wanting to know where I am. Huh? Themed and unthemed, although honestly seems worse with the theme but I had it on themed more.

And to add insult to injury, the Enomdater just told me it couldn't check for an update and force closed.

It's a cancer.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Sry all ... :o.. just got back in town ... had to rush out on an emergency call ... I'd hold off until I can get some answers on the newer gmaps.

Gonna dive into it shortly.
[G1 Android Development] lotherius:
Not an option for many of us.... I *thought* "TheOfficial" was supposed to be the ROM for this, rooted and the base features, but everything else optional.

Now you either get Root & Nothing Else (base TMO) or stuck with a bunch of unwanted bits including hacked Maps that breaks updating, etc... A bit annoyed that a built in application will not update properly and this isn't considered worth a fix but a theming issue is.
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
Fair enough. You might consider dwang or maybe even Soulife? (I was about to say you sound a whole lot like DOCHtor, wanting a fairly minimalist root + basics, but his sig indicates he's currently on Cyan 4.2.7.1, soooooo...)
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
I have to admit ... your speech was fairly motivational! :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] jordanjay29:
+1

Agreed on that. I'm someone who favors the stock look over themed, and I don't like updating for little theme issues. This seems far more major, especially given that Google has included Labs features in this round.

Can we get an update or removal option that works, please?
[G1 Android Development] Kerns_JW:
Tough room, think some folks need to switch back to stock for a few days. And why is everyone worrying so much about gmaps? Lost in the forest and need some gps love to get you out of the park?

I used the gmaps update.zip it worked fine guess I was lucky. Then tried deleting gmaps on sufbs manually, not expsetup, and downloaded from market, had no issues. What's the point of having root if you don't plan to experiment? BTW, The "find honnies" feature on labs is nice....
[G1 Android Development] DarkPontiac:
Thought i'd tap in on the maps issue...

I just tried this and it worked!

From ADB I did

adb remount
adb shell find /system /data -name \*google\*maps.apk\* -o -name Maps.apk -delete
adb uninstall com.google.android.apps.maps

Rebooted after.

After reboot maps 3.3.1 installed successfully! And works!

I did this on official rooted tmo us firmware with exp pack.

(Giving credit where credit is due: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4926849&postcount=1 user: canadiancow)

Edit: if this didn't work for you, I dunno if this matters but when I found this solution, I had already deleted the hacked maps.apk in expsetup and pushed the maps.apk from htc's recovery ota. It should work either way though.
[G1 Android Development] 94wolfpack:
I was able to get this to work... I removed maps with the expsetup then did a wipe (still not sure how to wipe the partition) and reinstall of the base rom. When I booted it the old map icon was there and then it downloaded maps 3.3.1 all by it self..

Anyway not sure how/why it did that but I am now on 3.3.1.

94wolf
[G1 Android Development] jordanjay29:
Well, you wiped and you didn't install the expansion. That'd be why.

Most here probably aren't as willing to wipe their phone just for one app, as delicious as the new maps is.
[G1 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
Yesterday I reflashed the Expansion again (trying to get rid of the battery-depletion problem (didn't work ;) )). Didn't wipe anything.

Installed my favorite theme. Uninstalled Google Maps (through expsetup), flashed the Maps-zipfile Enomther supplied, went to the Market and updated to 3.3.1. No problems whatsoever :D

correct version?

Hi!

I have this device:

model:t-mobile g1

firmware:1.1

baseband version: 62.33.20.08u_1.22.12.29

kernel:2.6.25-01843-gfea26b0 android-build@apa27 #6

build number:123099

It is unlocked, and I from Germany.

I would like to update 1.1 to 1.6

Is this the correct version for it:

http://www.androidspin.com/files/enomther/ROM/AOSP_ADP_1.6_r1.4_DRD20_rooted_base_v2.zip

Do I have to downgrade/root first?

Or upgrade first to 1.5?

Do I need SPL or something else, or just follow the steps from 4-8 according to first post?

thanks

How-to- Root, Hack, and Flashing your G1/Dream

you must have root .. for that you may need a "goldcard" in Germany .. check one of the HOWTO threads for that one
[G1 Android Development] ShermCraig:
Got it, thanks!!
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
ALSO MAKE SURE!!! (And Lucid ... Just FYI)!!! ...

The German G1's are different than the broader EU G1's. In which they WILL NOT accept rooting via the RC7.nbh method. A user with a true German G1, must perform a rooting process that entails utilizing a GoldCard.

Just making sure this is clear, as some german users have screwed up their phones this way. ... I forget where the method is posted, but search the web for "German G1 Goldcard rooting" and you'll find it.

battery depletion

Try re-enabling cyanogen's CPUFreqSampMOD. That may help, let "us" know how it goes.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
This issue is a signing key issue. This is why it works 100% of the time on TMO builds (release-keys), but consistently fails on ADP & AOSP builds. (test-keys)

I'm working on the solution.

FURTHER ... I don't like how some (who albiet are igorant of the "real" issue) seem content to bash my efforts in trying to resolve this matter. Citing that this "update problem" somehow has something to do with my including a "hacked version" of the maps in the build. This is not the real reason why we don't have a fix yet.

I love how Google decides (yes I said Google NOT enomther or Brut.all or TAPP, etc) to break GoogleMaps with this new "feature" ... and all of the sudden people begin accusing "me" of not providing "them" with options. Simply Amazing.

When/If I have the maps issue resolved I will produce an update for it. Till then, if you're not in the know and have nothing to contribute to the solution ... please bite your tongue ... or try another build (albeit where you the same damn problem). I simply don't need any more motivational speeches from the negative peanut gallery on the matter.

Thanksssssssssssssssssssssss :rolleyes:

[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
GoogleMaps

ah .. i see said the blind man to the deaf man .. so the signing issue exists only for ADP/AOSP people .. so anyone with the US/EU versions should be able to just uninstall with expsetup and then update in Market .. awesome

Q: what would happen if i pushed my Maps files from a TMO build and someone with ADP/AOSP did "lucid -app Maps drc92" .. would that fix anything or is there still some signing issue there?
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Yea ... although I haven't tested it ... I'd *HIGHLY* recommend not doing that on a ADP or AOSP build. The odex files could cause major havic ...

At best ... Maps just won't install.

At worst ... a user might experience the "black screen of death" upon reboot.

So perhaps placing a checking in "lucid" to confirm it's a TMO build first. ;)
