plz help :(
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
Nandroid (just in case), then reflash the original base for whichever version you're on, then the expansion pack. That should get you back to normal.
[G1 Android Development] BloodyWasHere:
hey thanks, appreciate it, didnt think of reflashing the base durrff, just did the expansion, that wont double up on anything, or screw it up right, if i dont wipe i mean?
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
It shouldn't, but that's what the nandroid is for. :)
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Did you guys ever get sorted out ?

All,

I have updated the OP with some more clear information regarding the upgrade for the AOSP.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Hey Bloody,

Sorry I lost your post in the mix of things earlier ...

Do make sure when you reflash the base + expansion you use the "rm" method describe in the OP to get your apps back.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
bubonik,

I'm looking into the matter ... but as it stands for the moment ... I haven't found a clear/clean cut-off ... but I'm trying to find a good/stable way to make it optional.

If I can't seem to find the "proper" solution for optionalizing it ... then it will remain ... as it is a very harmless feature.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Yes ... apps2sd is automatic.

i put the new version of the tmo us rom on my phone and now when my phone is about to shut of (as in timeout), it gets dimm but if i tap on the screen it doesnt seem to recognize that im touching it so it still shuts off (times out)...has anyone else realized this and is there a fix for it?

Hey mplspatch .... here's Stericson's "official" (go figure ;) ) thread on the lock screen ...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=557061

Feel free to badger him for more info ...

and BTW ALL ... it's entirely a myth that Stericson's lockscreen somehow drains/eats battery ... so I don't wanna hear it!

It's one thing to dislike the gr8 functionality it brings to the table ... but another to falsely accuse it of eating/draining battery. Not that any1 has ... just trying to head that conversation off before it gets started.

Just to verify, I currently have this on my G1:

Base: AOSP_ADP_1.6_r1.2_DRC92_rooted_base_v2.zip

Exp: AOSP_1.6_ExpPack_v2.1.1.zip

Theme: htc_hero_aosp16_theme_v2.1.zip

If I was to upgrade to the current AOSP-1.6_r1.4 v2.1.2, I would have to flash both the Base and Expansion pack right? Then of course the available Theme?
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
gamefan231,

This has actually come up in the past. While we are uncertain of the exact cause ... I've looked at logs of this issue and have come up w/Zero.

There are (2) distinct issues, one can be fixed w/ a simple reboot, the other .... well, the other means something in the dalvik-cache has gone haywire ... that much is certain.

Unfortunately ... the (2) times I've seen this in the past ... the ultimate fix was a complete fresh installation of everything ... meaning reformat any ext partitions, wipe, flash base and flash expansion. This has fixed it both times.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
You are 100% correct ... also, I just updated the OP with more information about a couple of "rm" commands you should run prior to upgrade ...

So hit F5 (refresh) on the OPost and check those out ... but yes .. you are correct.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] sumasage:
Since we are on this subject i want to chime in on what i encountered as well. The first time i encounter this is installed the Hero theme and it went away.

The second time, after wipe and all, i installed one of the updated expansion (2.1.2 i think) then flash the hero theme. Everything worked just fine then out of no where i just happen again. I just flashed the hero theme again and it went away. Seem random but just thought i let you guys know in for "data collecting". Hopefully we will find a fix someday. Or at least find the root cause.
[G1 Android Development] cigar3tte:
I've nandroid restored back to r1.2. Those two updates alone isn't worth the hassle for me. Going to update when I'm up for total wipe.
[G1 Android Development] jamerican413:
enom,

I just wiped my ext2 partition and my phone and reinstalled AOSP, expansion pack 2.1.2, and lastly Plastics theme. I still don't have wifi (message says "Unable to start Wi-Fi" and the theme is not taking either (again.) These worked well with T-Mo version but I thought I'd give AOSP a shot. So far, there's no benefit. Am I missing something?
[G1 Android Development] bubonik:
For all those having issues with installation, have any of you tried running commands manually? Although Amon Ras recovery is very convenient, I personally have had better success using parted.

wipe phone

Parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

rm 2

rm 3

mkpartfs primary ext2 xxx xxx

mkpartfs primary swap xxx xxx

quit

upgrade_fs

reboot recovery

wipe phone

flash base

flash expansion

boot the phone

Crash on market notification

I am getting a FC on Market -> Downloads > Menu > Notifications

This FC remember me the time I had on Cyanogen Roms... :(

There is a way to make the New Lockscreen Optional, or there is a way to remove it? I am not sure but I think it is a lot slow to unlock when the phone is ringing, the display and avatar show late as normal.

Thanks again.

PDF reader package

This Rom contains a very nice PDF reader that works REALLY well.

Where can I find this as a separate, installable app? Is it avail on the market and if not, how can I extract if from the image and make it a package?

Any ideas?
[G1 Android Development] JonInAtl:
I had the same issue with WiFi and AOSP and couldn't figure it out- like you I went back to the TM version and Expack and all is well again.

DRD20 Hero Theme

1) Formatted Ext 3 on SD Card

2) Wiped phone using RA Dream 1.2.3

3) Flashed DRD 20 Base Root

4) Flashed DRD 20 Extension

5) Rebooted Phone

Everything worked and looked great...

6) Flashed DRD20 Hero Theme

Killed Advanced Laucher and it appears as if Hero Theme is only the Theme Template...no Hero application bar (at the bottom of the screen), notification bar is still white, no Hero wallpapers...nothing Hero is applied.

I also tried the above steps with a reboot between flashing the Base Root and Extenstion.

Any ideas? Anyone else having difficulties flashing the Hero theme?

Thanks,

David
[G1 Android Development] anzoshi:
i have had the exact same problem, have tried wiping everything, including reformatting the entire SDcard, wipes, rebooting between adding each part, not rebooting between adding each part, nothing seems to work
[G1 Android Development] Jdom58:
Maybe you guys had a bad download not sure, I installed the same on my sons G1 last night (latest AOSP + expansion + hero) and all went well working perfectly. did you load Rom, then exp pack w/o rebooting then log in to the phone then go back and install theme. At least that's how I did it and it all loaded just fine.
[G1 Android Development] mplspatch:
error

hey all,

I had an odd problem. I got an error message while typing in the commands before upgrading, and my phone had everything force close. I did a nandroid, and flashed the base and exp, and only got a blank screen on boot. My recovery from nandroid did the same thing. So I started over--reformatted my sd card and extension--wiped, and then flashed the base/extension.

That worked--but when I downloaded the better browser, it removed my browser all together (giving me the missing 'android' bag instead.

I reflashed the base/expansion without wiping, and it returned. I haven't tried upgrading browsers again yet.

Did anyone else have anything like this? I was surprised since I ended up doing a clean install. (I was going from AOSP DCR92+latest expansion to new AOSP)
[G1 Android Development] qwerty3656:
Apps2SD is built into the ROM. You should create your ext2 (or ext3) b/f you install the ROM (and then it will work automatically). There is probably some way to create the ext partition after you installed the ROM, but others would have to provide the commands.
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
Apps2SD

use the Amon RA recovery image (or i think cyan's works too) .. format the sdcard into two parts (fat/ext) and the next time you boot the ROM does the apps2SD for you
[G1 Android Development] Krankroid:
OK, maybe I am missing something, but after the new update, it goes through the mt3g screen, then it comes to the screen that just says "android," after that it just goes to a blank black screen and stays on it.

I tried the Tmo update, then I wiped, reinstalled that same base, then updated to the new expansion pack. Still the same thing

I also tried the same with the AOSP version, any ideas??:confused:

ps It works fine with the base, its just when I install the expansion
[G1 Android Development] JonInAtl:
sounds like you didn't wipe dalvik cache and ext
[G1 Android Development] jamerican413:
Yeah, I had to do the same thing. All is well in the world again. For some reason, AOSP seemed more responsive (faster) but for me to use it I'd want it to do everything I'm used to. The T-Mo version is working well for me, as before.
[G1 Android Development] jamerican413:
I did it according to instruction 2 times (full wipe and repartition each time) and the third time I didn't wipe and rebooted between each installation. I got the same end result, regardless of how I did it. It's just not working for some of us (and I have a G1, too.) When I say it's not working I mean no wifi and no themes, other than the template. I tried 3 themes, just to make sure.
[G1 Android Development] bubonik:
jamerican, flash haykuros spl 1.33.2005 and see if the hero theme applies.

All,

I'm going to look into the theme issues tonight .... my job IRL has me on 6 major projects atm ... so needless to say that comes first when it demands. :)

From the sounds of all the feedback ... a space issue is likely ... all my testing was done on the 1.33.2005 SPL ... so def no space issue there ... I'll update the thread a lil laterz on this. :)

Version 2 of the AOSP-1.6_r1.4-DRD20 posted

All,

Version 2 of the AOSP-1.6_r1.4-DRD20 rooted base was posted/released.

This fixes a space issue caused by non-symlink'd binaries ... which broke themes, wifi and probably some other sporadic pieces.

This only effected users w/out Haykuro's Danger-SPL ... Sorry for the troubles all.

[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Hey nabzz ..

Doesn't surprise me at all that I missed some xml edits :) ... I'm no expert themer ... but I try my best.

I take it you didn't see my previous response to you ?

The v2.2.x release is still a couple days out (maybe a lil more ... yea ... I know I keep saying that ... but it's ready when it's ready)

But once v2.2.x is released I'll be able to release a solid theme template for the builds, that will include all built-in apps like PDFViewer. In it's current form PDFViewer is installed from a compressed tarball to either the ext partition of the sdcard or to /data ... depending on the users setup.

This unfortunately makes it ... along with a few others .. mostly un-theme-able.

But I will have the solution soon. If you're just looking to manually theme it on your personal build ...

Then it's located in /data/expstick/vsapps/PDFViewer.apk

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] uiterlix:
I use the TMO EU ROM with the expansion pack, and I have to admit, it's simply the best ROM available for my G1. It's just as fast as cyanogens builds and fully functional.

I came from using cyanogens 4.2.3 for a while, but he started adding new things to the ROM like usb tethering and the stericsson lockscreen. Both great features but hazards to the ROM stability in a stable branch imho.
[G1 Android Development] jamerican413:
Just to be safe, I applied Haykuro's SPL and reflashed the AOSP rom. All is well; no issue at all with themes and wifi is working as it should. It IS faster than the T-Mo counterpart - for me, at least.
[G1 Android Development] blueheeler:
Yeah, I came from CM too. The new stuff should have moved to an experimental branch imho. I like the way that enom does it much better. Everything is an option. And he even holds back some of the expsetup options until he knows everything is stable. I like experimenting as much as the next person, but I also use my phone ... as a phone. It's function by day, screw things up at night.

And besides ... Enom is extremely helpful and nice. And this thread never spirals out of control and rarely takes a nasty turn.
[G1 Android Development] blueheeler:
If you really want to speed things up, get Taskiller and Autostart off the Market. You would be amazed at how many senseless programs are running in the background. Stop those (not system services, just stupid programs that autostart for no good reason) and you'll see this rom fly. Seriously.
[G1 Android Development] JonInAtl:
See? And you all thought I was crazy when I said my WIFI wasn't working. LOL

Everything is cool now!
[G1 Android Development] marty22877:

new version question

Hey Enom,

I got errors when I entered the terminal command you suggested before installing the new base ROM, then had to wipe everything and start over to get this upgrade to work.

Everything is working now, although I'm afraid to reinstall the better browser as it removed my browser completely the first time after the clean install. (I had to reflash the base/expansion)

If I go to your updated version you put up yesterday, do I need to run those terminal commands again? (I'm just a bit nervous because the error wasn't a typo, but I can't remember what it said.) Also--have you heard of anyone else losing their entire browser upon updating the better browser, or could that have been a strange fluke?

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
Space/Theme

Could the space issue also be why, after flashing the Hero Theme, sometimes I get Hero Wallpapers and sometimes I don't?
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Yup ... absolutely could be related ... can't say for sure ... but there's a strong likelihood.

Should be good now though.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
mplspatch,

Not 100% sure what you mean by losing your entire browser. But Loccy's better browser is meant to replace the browser all together.

Are you installing Loccy's Better Browser through expsetup?

You should follow those commands in the OP ... prior to reinstalling ... and if done properly should not cause any FC's or anything bad for that matter.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] mplspatch:
Thanks--yeah, when I went through expsetup and rebooted, the browser feature was gone the first time--replaced by an 'android bag' saying the feature was missing. I haven't tried again as everything is working perfect now. Maybe I'll try again tonight when I have time to play if I mess anything up. Thanks for all your hard work!
[G1 Android Development] bittermormon:
i want adv launcher back.

If I removed adv launcher through expsetup, but now would like it back, whats the best way to go about reinstalling it?

Can I just push the apk from the zip to the correct place, or would re-installing the exp pack + theme be the way to go?
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
Thanks, Enom.

Not to take anything away from the other modders, but it really is a pleasant surprise to see you posting and responding every day. However, I'm sure it gets old answering the same questions over and over again ;)

Tonight I'll be flashing the Haykuro SPL :eek: Unless anyone wants to talk me out of it...lol Wish me luck!
[G1 Android Development] Krankroid:
Worked like a charm, thank you
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Yup ... you should be able to just push it back.

There's also some "rm" commands I posted in the OP that will force the reinstallation of the expansion pack.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Yea ... I mean you should not have to flash Haykuro's SPL for these ROM's (when I publish them properly that is lol :) ). So it's always a slightly safer idea not to ... if you don't need to.

That said ... with the radio version you list in your signature ... you "should" be ok.

Good luck!

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] bittermormon:
Thx, got it to work by just reinstalling the base, exp pack, then my theme.

If anyone is interested I cut and past the hero theme with the launchers from the Blur theme. I take no credit, all I did was shift files around.

THEME
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
Interested (though I do like the Blur animations), but won't be going to AOSP until 2.2.x (maybe this weekend?) so would you be willing/able to update this after enom gets that version released?
[G1 Android Development] bittermormon:
yeah , i like them too. I'm a total theme noob, but in the past I have had trouble messing with the framework-res.apk which holds the animations (I think). If I can figure it out I will.

Yeah I would update it as long as I'm using it. I made(tweaked) it for myself but wanted to try and give a little back.

[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
Changing SD

i actually did this myself .. went from 2G to 8G .. i simply used linux Ubuntu and created two folders .. like SDD1 (Fat32) and SDD2 (Ext3) .. one thing you have to do for permission is that you can't click-and-drag the stuff off the Ext3 .. go into Terminal and use "sudo"

ie: sudo cp -a /media/sdd2/* /home/LucidREM/Desktop/SDD2

then switch cards

ie: sudo cp -a /home/LucidREM/Desktop/SDD2/* /media/sdd2
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
Looks like /dev/htc-acoustic is missing, which would imply (to me) a kernel configuration problem. Enom--did you get the right kernel modules for the mT3G?

Watch me be wrong now :-) If it's not too much trouble, you'll probably want to start from scratch with a wipe and clear ext partition (if applicable).
[G1 Android Development] LadFromWales85:
reflashed the DRD20 pre-v2, exp, and this time the hero theme, for kicks, and it's starting fine, all is now well in the world once more!

Seems my Magic doesn't like the v2 version of DRD20.

E/RIL Acoustic( 739): can't open /dev/htc-acoustic -1

[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
Well then. Maybe I'll nandroid and try to flash it after watching Bill Cosby accept his Mark Twain award.
[G1 Android Development] Joe333x:
I would suggest using BART. If you have RA recovery then you already have it and just need to boot into recovery mode and go to console type bart and see what the command is to back up entire ext3 partition, or just go to the bart thread on here. After you back up the entire ext partition mount your sd card and copy the bart folder to your pc. Partition your new sd card and put the bart folder on the fat32 partition and then put the new card in your phone. Boot into recovery mode go to console type bart -r and restore the ext partition. BART is awesome :D
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
Just flashed DRD20+2.1.2, no theme on my mT3G and it boots. So maybe it's the theme? I guess I'll try that next...

UPDATE: Flashed gChrome and it still boots. I'll go ahead and nandroid restore back to TMO now, but I'm thinking 2.2.x is the breakpoint for going to AOSP. gChrome is mostly good, but I don't like the app drawer. Too styled.
[G1 Android Development] L0rdDash:
Thanx LucidREM that worked perfect i think :-D every thing seems to be working so far. Am i wrong in thinking i could check the memory of both partions in settings? Im only showing one plus the phones (which is showing around 40 megs).

Also sudo nautilus (ubuntu file explorer) will let you use it to copy to and from the dir as well, learned this after a lil more reading up on the subject
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
OT: You should use gksudo rather than sudo for X applications, such as nautilus, for various arcane reasons.
