Did you reformat your ext2 or 3 before flashing?

All of these issues can be resolved by correctly reformatting your partitions. You don't even have to repartition the whole thing, just ext2 or ext3 whichever one you have.
[G1 Android Development] :
i did i always reformat before moving to a different rom
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Do you still have linux-swap set up?

Try reflashing, I haven't gotten one force close yet.
[G1 Android Development] :
no linux-swap only ext2 for this rom and using CompCache.. will reflash and post
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
No, I mean you only need two partitions.

Your sig said you had linux-swap so I was just wondering
[G1 Android Development] :
lol oh yeah gotta update that :o i dont like hero anymore :eek:
[G1 Android Development] nightwolf2k5:
to add to the issue.. when i check now.. the ext partition is no longer present!

the entire sd card is corrupted..

perhaps its the JF recovery image.. i'll try this update using another recovery...
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
try it usign cyanogen's
[G1 Android Development] [[ Cold ]]:
is this a google or htc based rom?
[G1 Android Development] alritewhadeva:
It's basically the Magic...T-Mobile based? lol
[G1 Android Development] herbjr:
Its a good rom but whats up with the chiness keyboard?
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
go to setting > locale and text > and deselect android Keyboard and only leave touch input selected.
[G1 Android Development] herbjr:
Ahh I see. Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] njuncos:
ccyro,

would you venture to say this is faster than CyanogenMod?

just curious, might go ahead and try it anyway...seems to be a pretty complete ROM for a 1.0 release, can't wait to see where you go with this!
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
That's a tough thing to say. I haven't been on cyanogen's roms in awhile since I've been working on Hero - this was my first break from Hero in a while :)

I would say it is very, very fast. Try it out and you tell me!
[G1 Android Development] xREVOx:
Ccyrowski, why'd you choose the MyTouch ROM? Why not pick something more complete like the Rogers ROM and toss Swap Partition support for it? Better Dialer etc already built in.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Haha little known fact, sometimes the ROM chooses you! ;)

But seriously, this ROM is very complete and I was given a new source. I'll include the dialer soon.

There is already a good Rogers ROM out there so I released this one. If there is enough demand for another Rogers ROM I may do one. I'd like to work on mytouch and Hero simeultaneously.
[G1 Android Development] alritewhadeva:
Lol take it slower. One ROM at a time :)
[G1 Android Development] xREVOx:
I guess the best thing about HTC ROM's is the Exchange Integration. Work Mail just doesn't cut it.
[G1 Android Development] jady:
Great rom man, I was a fan of the ion rom but this one is much better!!!
[G1 Android Development] familyfirstf:
this is a great rom!! Better than any other rom i tried and i tried them all! If there was a way to push the people.apk from hero, i would never flash again lol! Great work!
[G1 Android Development] [[ Cold ]]:
i've never tried a mytouch rom.. does it have the same ion/google dialer? or has smartdial? (I really like rogers/hero dialer, cant use the others)
[G1 Android Development] droiddv:
I just wanted to add, this is somehow faster than Cyanogen's super fast image. In my opinion anyway. Both are smokin fast. I just put it on about 5 minutes ago, and just the boot up time, and the little navigating I did was very impressive. Plus my faves works perfectly. Good Job
[G1 Android Development] smsrat84:
ok, so here is my question... do I have to perform a wipe l, coming from cyans 3.6.6? Also, how stable is the apps to sd? So far, Cyan's rom in the only one that I haven't gotten massive force closing.
[G1 Android Development] sim64one:
its the same for me too!!:D

After I tryed a lot of HERO build, all with the same problem: lagggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg, I stay to CM3.6.. but now ... cyrowski start a new way. Must to try it! :)

PS I'm tired to sync everytime my signature LOL

@ALL:

before to update this new build I would like to say if its possible to save (backup) the settings for the app K9-mail. With MyBackupPro I can restore easily my call log, messagges and other, but I need a lot af time after an update to reconfigure all my mail accounts.
[G1 Android Development] sim64one:
Where is Italian Language?

hi cyrowski,

your new build is faster as cyanogen!

automatic found and setup linux-swap 3rd part

but only english and spanish :(
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
I'll add some more lanuages for v1.1 thanks for the recommendation!
[G1 Android Development] Ronnymes:
That's good news, found the same bug... but its SMOKING fast!!

Keep it up!
[G1 Android Development] Ronnymes:
Found a little camera bug..

When you make a picture and watched the pic you just made, you can not make a other picture by pressing the back key.... the screen crashed.
[G1 Android Development] futango:
Confirmed. I just checked mine and when I hit the back button it distorts the screen to have split distorted images.
[G1 Android Development] nightwolf2k5:
ok.. i tried the same thing with cyanogens recovery..

i checked the ext file system.. and it reported checked and repaired...

then on.. the messages i got were..

press HOME to confirm or any other key to abort.

[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
im assuming you formatted and wiped...

sounds maybe like a corrupted file? have you tried redownloading?
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
has anyone tried going from 528 to 324 (or whatever the exact numbers are)? I feel like the higher default setting probably eats up the battery and when i switched to the lower setting i didnt notice much of a difference...thanks
[G1 Android Development] erasmogjr:
I got this same problem an I cant figure it out. I downloaded three seperate times to make sure it wasnt a corrupted file. I tried on two different phones one white and one black G1. Both phones have new spl/radio/recovery.I tried transferring the file to the phones by mounting and by adb push to sdcard. I reformatted my cards. I left out the swap partitions when reformatting and tried with a third 32 mb linux swap. I can flash any other rom and/or theme with absolutely no problem. Now I have cm 3.9 on the white and Jachero 2.7.4 on the black, with no problems at all on either one. I really wanted to try this ROM. Any suggestions?

Thanks as always.
[G1 Android Development] jmcuevas50:
apps to sd

how can I get Apps to sd working on this ROM
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
I wish I could be of more help but my only suggestion is definitely keep at it. this is a beautiful, SIMPLE rom. Withe rosie it was have two partitions, now use the swapper app, now overclock, now dont use the swapper app or overclock but add a third partition, now its dont use swapper or overclock or 3rd partition just use compcache. My god i had to give up, especially with THIS alternative, its as fast as itll ever need to be so there will probably be fewer updates which will be cosmetic or bug fixes leaving us more time to enjoy autorotate, wifi, bt, mt, led, etc, etc the list goes on and on.... My suggestion is to get on this wagon because its quite the joyride!
[G1 Android Development] SimonNWalker:
Ditto.

I have 16GB SD Card.

Part 1 = Fat32

Part 2 = Ext3

Old SPL

New Radio.

Any ideas ?
[G1 Android Development] herbjr:
It runs automatically. Just partition your card(if not done already) and you are good to go.
[G1 Android Development] sullitf:
Switched over from hero superlite to JACMyTouchSkiv and I must say I'm extremely impressed. My 8GB SD card fried a week or two ago, not sure if hero was to blame or not but I've since been cautious about using a swap partition. I'm currently using the stock 1GB card and am seeing amazing speed with this 2.0 rom.

The only thing that I really miss, and the one thing that pulls me back to hero every few days is the People app and facebook integration. It really is very helpful (and impressive IMO) to have my contact list automatically sync up with my facebook. I rarely every actually logon to facebook, so its nice to have my phone automatically utilize some of its social networking benefits.

Hopefully there will be a hero rom without Rosie that is as fast as this one, but I'm not holding my breathe! I'll be done with my internship in a few weeks and will finally have some free time; if there isn't a Rosie-free Hero rom (or one with Rosie that doesn't require swap) I'll work on some optimizations. Yes, I know the newest Hero roms use compcache, but I gave it a try without a swap partition and it still just wasn't all that fast.
[G1 Android Development] dav1boy:
you need the latest spl to run this (1.33.2005) i see in your sig that you do have the current radio so no worries about bricking your system when flashing to the spl. wipe the ext just in case, i always do. then alt+w then alt+s.
[G1 Android Development] nightwolf2k5:
retried.. failed again.. :(

i dont think this rom can be installed with a stock radio n spl (or is it called ppl)..

tired it so many times now.. i almost fried by sdcard..
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
oh sorry i didnt realize you didnt have the latest radio and spl, you need them. read this it makes it easy

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=533731
[G1 Android Development] PlatinumMOTO:
so are you saying if you have the new radio and old SPL there is no chance of making a brick when upgrading to the new SPL I've done it on my 2 phones a few times but a buddy of mine wants it done and his girlfriend wants it done and she is obsesssively protective with the phone. I just need to make sure I don't brick it.

I just flashed your ROM very fast btw but it says I'm using swap I don't even have a swap partition so how can I use it I want to use compcache how do I turn it on and swap off?
[G1 Android Development] nightwolf2k5:
is it the same procedure even for the french G1?
[G1 Android Development] Genesis206:
I've bricked 2 phones (after repeatedly flashing the "special" SPL and I'm pretty sure I had the latest radio each time... I don't think it would be the Danger SPL if it were that simple.
[G1 Android Development] nightwolf2k5:
this post just convinced me to not use this rom.. :(

Would've been great if this could have been installed like the dude's or JF's roms... :(
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
If You have a recovery installed you cant brick your phone so do that first which you should have had already. Guys if your not sure what needs to be done and how p.m me and ill go over it with you.
[G1 Android Development] renegadedj:
wow :( this rom is so nice its a shame its not installing. i wanna give advice but it looks like you tried eveything.

corrupted downloaded file? the size of jacmytouchskiv2 file i have is 52.76mb big

ill just list the steps i do for flashing a new (not upgraded from current) rom, maybe thatll help (be sure to take rom into sd root and rename update..zip):

1) uninstall all applications

2) reboot into recovery (be sure to have cyanogens 1.3.1 recovery) and format ext partition (where app2sd saves all info) as follows:

mount -0 rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd <enter>

cd /system/sd <enter>

rm -r * <enter>

recovery <enter>

3) repair file ext system

4) wipe data/factory reset

5) flash update.zip

6) reboot

hope it works for you this rom is really amazing
[G1 Android Development] dav1boy:
http://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/

that is the link for the latest SPL and Radio you will need to install this rom. make sure not to flash the radio again if you already have the version shown in that link. and if you do have it already, you should have no problems flashing the SPL in that link as well.
[G1 Android Development] vwrpm:
I can confirm this error is due to having the old SPL. I updated my SPL and this error went away and the ROM installed perfectly.
[G1 Android Development] gtrplr71:
how long should the boot screen be on? flashing from "jf 1.5" I did download the latest radio and spl.
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
ive flashed this several times and its taken a couple of minutes max
[G1 Android Development] s0ysauce45:
I've been jacHERO for the past 10 days or so, and just moved to this rom. The speed is AMAZING!!! This is how a phone should be. Awesome job devs!
[G1 Android Development] g4m3rz:
I had the same problem.

you need to update the SPL .. read steps here
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
Is HardSPL ok to flash to this ROM?
[G1 Android Development] dav1boy:
no... you need the one found here. its the direct link to the download. no reading involved:

[G1 Android Development] evilone1969:
wow great job, very nice rom....fast and smooth... luv the theme too :) is there anyway to change the clock to white?

anyways ty guys vm :)
[G1 Android Development] nightwolf2k5:
not my day!

I guess its turning out to be one of those days..

The rom sure has been praised enough for me to try it again.. but.. as luck would have it.. I have stumbled into another roadblock..

I tried to get onto the new SPL and radio.. but.. When I try to install the new radio.. (using the home+Back to boot.. ALT+L to show the text and then ALT+S to apply the update

i get the following error message..

E: No signature (5 files)

E: Verification failed

Installation aborted..

Tried the new radio from 2 sources.. so.. i guess we can safely assume the file is not corrupted..

The more I am denied this rom.. the more i wanna have it.. :D

but.. having a french G1 sure as hell makes it a lot more difficult!
[G1 Android Development] boomer30:
did you wipe ?
[G1 Android Development] nightwolf2k5:
i did do the alt+w.. nothing happened.. :S

pressed alt+s.. same error..
[G1 Android Development] PlatinumMOTO:
This would be the first time of flashing the new SPL to the other two phones not mine is there still a chance of a brick? they both have PVT boards.

And they both have the stock sdcards as of now so they will need to use compcache not swap how do I enable it?
[G1 Android Development] devsk:
Remains the fastest ROM for G1. Any idea when we can get the 'ls -al' issues fixed? i.e. when can we get the latest busybox?
[G1 Android Development] Genesis206:
To try this ROM I went ahead and flashed Danger SPL last night. Everything seems pretty automatic, the ROMs will enable what they need themselves. It will work as long as you don't do like I did and get constant boot loops and constantly flash the SPL (what happened with prior phones, this went smoothly :)).

Best thing to do is the 2-SD card trick, put Danger SPL on one card and ROM you want to flash on your main SD Card (or the one they will keep), flash the SPL, and then switch SD cards before rebooting, reboot (then hold home of course), then flash your ROM and continue to the greatness that is these new ROMs.

______________________________________________________--

And I want to make a request for white clock font as well. Pretty much my only request, this is pretty sexy. I hate HTC_IME (because of the device keyboard thing) but the new one is so sexy I'm using it too. Thanks for the hard work.
[G1 Android Development] Seeds:
theres a bug. it takes forever to answer a call. i have to click the answer button a few times. when will we get an update?
[G1 Android Development] ownjoouk:
I don't have this problem. It answers straight away for me.

Same here. Really haven't had any issues with it. Have taken a break from devin for the past couple days but am going to get back very shortly. :)
[G1 Android Development] rsfaze:
so I've flashed this rom 3 times, downloaded it 3 different times and each time I have the same issues with google maps and Sherpa open but close soon after. Everything else seems to work fine. I am flashing the 2.0 version straight from the sd card. I even used the new recovery image and tried flashing it without renaming it to update.zip and still the same issue.

Has anyone run into this ? thanks
[G1 Android Development] BlackElvis79:
HTC Flash...

I've tried to take the flash from hero and put on my touch, but it's not working. Adobe site confirms that I have flash. What would be the next course of action?
[G1 Android Development] dilfatx:
I might have overlooked the thread that covered this..did a search and no luck..

Does this ROM need to have a specific SPL installed? The one I have installed is on my sig.. can somebody please let me know if its ok to install this ROM with that SPL?

Thanks in advance.
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
From what C has told me flash is so dependent on the entirety of hero's framework that it may not even be possible. And since its only flash 9 and the official adobe flash 10 is due around october I'm not sure its a real high priority...
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
download the googlemaps update from the market.

Make sure GPS acquires your location.
[G1 Android Development] BlackElvis79:
Understood. Thanx.
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
I need pdfviewer so i can use this build, but i cant use adb. Im wondering if this link:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=3782880

would work for this build since it just uses terminal? The link seems to imply that it works on jf and Haykuro builds but i dont know if that means it doesnt work on others or just hasnt been attempted... thanks much
[G1 Android Development] nolageek:
I have the exact opposite experience. On the last Cyan build it would take 5 or 6 seconds to answer a call after the screen came up - on this one it answers right away. Did you wipe?
[G1 Android Development] koolmick:
Yes, this worked for me...
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
awesome thank you

edit: worked like a charm, thanks again
[G1 Android Development] rsfaze:
that fixes my issue with google maps, maybe I need to find the Sherpa.apk and reinstall it as well. Google maps works now, Sherpa still opens and closes.

thanks for the help ccyrowski
[G1 Android Development] erasmogjr:
I have the new spl, the "danger" one. I a currently on Drizzy's hero rom and have been on JacHeros way before trying this rom. Guess I just was having bad luck or something tried again just now and had no problem. I dont get it lol. :confused:
[G1 Android Development] renegadedj:
i've kept flashing back to this theme over and over again in the last few days because its so fast, stable, and feature/theme-rich.

2 complaints:

the topbar clock is black on a darkgray background. argh hard to see sometimes.

i could do without the topbar rounded corners.

thats it that i could really see changed in this build. its awesome hands down 1 of my top 2 besides cyanogens stuff.

i do really want htccamera BUT, and i know i know, i could just do the adb push and pull and blah blah but to be honest, i dont understand where i do adb. i get its a development tool we can use on a pc to push pull files from our computers to the phones but ive looked at the adb page and i dont get where i install some program to do it with and i've also tried the commands just through the phone. i think i even tried reading the adb for dummies. i just dont get it. lmao.

and i;m not high.

lol should i be??~? hhaahaha

great rom tho again will there be a v3? or, with donut and hero being worked on to get more stable with the g1, is those more where you guys are putting your efforts as far as another ROM?
[G1 Android Development] PlatinumMOTO:
I don't think you can get the HTC camera I tried to pull /system/app/camera.apk and then copied the apk from Cy3681 and tried to push it to /system/app/ and it didn't work I think it's odexed so I don't think it matches.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Correct!!!!!!!
[G1 Android Development] sensimila:
I really like this rom, it seems a little slow sometimes. maybe because im using dxtop but other than that its a great rom. hope for more updates. donation links dont work for jac and manup.
[G1 Android Development] gjlamb:
AWWWWWEEEEESome

Was just about to throw my G1 on ebay and go back to an iPhone when I found this rom. There's way too much lag on all the other Hero ROMs i've tried so far but this one is lightning fast. Just how it should be. Great work. I'll try this ROM for a few days and see how it goes for everything else.

What I would like to see is the full Hero Work Email where I can put multiple Exchange / POP / IMAP accounts in. At the moment I am using GMail, work email and email on this ROM for the 3 different accounts I have. Apart from that, the Weather widgets crash when I try and search for my location but I don't often use them.
[G1 Android Development] smsrat84:
I flashed 2.0 a few days ago, and I absolutely love it. I like the 'Hero' feel to it, with the icons and HTC Music, is there any way to port over the Hero contact app (people)?

Great work JAC, CC, and Manup! You guys ****in rock! Keep it up!
[G1 Android Development] smsrat84:
I stopped using Home Alterations Apps, bc of that reason and the force closing that would happen. But a cpl tips to help speed it up, dont load your home screens with apps, and use as few widgets as possible.
[G1 Android Development] weezerisock:
I agree with you, I bought and now don't use open home because of the lag it would bring with it.

As far as the widgets go its sad but true. I love my widgets but they do slow me down a little bit. (especially the ones that hit the internet for updates) But man the widgets are one of the bigger things that make this phone so much better than the Iphone (for me)
[G1 Android Development] smsrat84:
So true, brotha. Widgets are great, they definitely set Android apart from the rest, for now. The problem is, the phones internal HW isn't enough for all the things this phone WANTS to do. Im rather pissed that, so far, T-Mobile hasnt offered any type of upgrade possibilities for existing customers with the G1 for the MyTouch 3G. 200 for ppl who havent upgraded in 23 months, but almost 500 for the rest of us? :mad:

But, IDk that I could get away from the KB. Anyways, I got a little off subject.

This ROM F'in Rocks!!!:cool:
[G1 Android Development] weezerisock:
It also doesn't help that T-mobile still doesn't have 3G in my area. :( sprints gonna have 4G across the nation before T-Mobile fills in their 3G holes. BUT, I would still rather be on T-mobile than some other networks. :) I enjoy their customer service. I understand your complaint about the upgrade but I doubt you'd find a provider that would give you a discount. The cell phone industry is the most ridiculous industry in america.

:endrant

back to the topic at hand, as smsrat84 stated, THIS ROM EFFING ROCKS.
[G1 Android Development] renegadedj:
um that's not HtcMusic on this ROM its a themed out default media player yes, but not the htcmusic app same as hero. :p
[G1 Android Development] Lou2serious:
This Rom is by far on of the best. Speed, stability, and GREAT battery life 18 hours on 90% charge with light usage before I had to plug in the charger.

My only complaints is I wish we had HTC camera and the hero window animations. Great job Devs ....I'm love this rom and now I'm hesitant to switch back to a hero rom.
[G1 Android Development] devsk:
I agree on all counts! This my stable ROM which I go back to when I am done testing a new ROM.

It does need a few fixes:

1. link 'ls' to busybox instead of toolbox (we get that weird error on ls -al)

2. new smart dialer with built in search

3. HTC music

4. newer camera utility

There is my feature request....I am shameless...:D:p
[G1 Android Development] PlatinumMOTO:
just wanted to say great job on the ROM super fast and I think you were the first to get my faves actually working.
