Installed 4.1.6..No issues

Installed 4.1.6 last night and I have been using all the ways I could use it.

(I have T-Mobile G1, I wiped it before Installing 4.1.6, I already have APPS2SD enabled and last I don't have any Theme installed now (as CM suggested)).

Everything looks pretty cool. It is really damn cool....fast...!!

I don't have any automatic Reboots except few FCs on APPS

Pros:-

- I have Twidget lite, power control, Tunewiki, Music, direct dials as widget/shortcut on my dashboard and they run fine.

- I almost have 24 APPS which are working normal.

- No issues during attend/make Calls.

- No browser issues.

Cons:

1. few apps like, EboBirhtday, ChomSMS, AMAZON.COM are force closing. But I think it is just the compatibility issue nothing to do with CM.

2. Quick office, PDF viewer are not working.

Suggestions:

1. I would like to see Old camera back which was having Time stamp on Photo and Zoom function. (at least Time stamp function).

2. we had one file browser (I think it was ESFile browser) but now it is missing. Can we have ti back.

3. what ever you can add more...!!!

Finally...

Cyanogen...you really rock....!!!

keep up the good work...!!

no problems at all with 4.1.6 . i havent wiped since 3.9.5 .

the only "wierd" thing i have noticed is that my ringtone will play after i unplug my headphones or randomly when i kill tunewiki or the native music player . oh , well , doesnt really bother me , just a side note .

thanks cyanogen for constantly working on these builds for us to try out . if only our government could hire someone with your ethics , imagine what could be achieved ! :)

Delete Update.zip?

Once all up and running (see spec in signature below) is is safe to delete the update.zip from the root of the SD or does it need to stay there?
[G1 Android Development] ch4dr0x:
Anyone else getting random reboots with this? For the most part it works great but sometimes, without rhyme or reason, I just see the Cyanogen screen come up and the phone reboots. I tried reformatting with a wipe last night and it just happened again.
[G1 Android Development] msff:
Yes, reboots and random widget crashers. But thats why its called "Experimental" :)
[G1 Android Development] underamoon:
It is safe to delete. However, you may want to make a nandroid backup and some people like to keep an update on their SD in case of problems.

I was able to find a last_ksmg inside of /proc but I cannot figure out how to export it to a text file on a windows machine. I was using the standard cmd prompt then running the command "sdb shell" to get into a linux shell and navigate but I cannot copy the file. Can anyone help me out here?

Update:

I was able to use the

adb pull <remote> <local>

command

Here is my last_kmsg.txt if you still need it.

I have experienced a few random reboots as well as random music playing and force closes on various apps when coming out of suspend.

Also, my phone hickups every so often, there isnt a set time interval it does this that I can tell.

I did not see the other dump file in /proc
[G1 Android Development] Afirejar:
Try "adb pull /proc/filename ."
[G1 Android Development] dcplaya:
Thanks, I was able to find it on my own, for future reference I found that and a lot more commands at

http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html
[G1 Android Development] marshallladd:
That is my bad. I meant to put "no apanic file." Sorry about that. I have had two reboots since then and no apanics with either of them. I hope you get them though because other than this reboot issue, best ROM I have ever used. If I do get one though it will be up here immediately.
[G1 Android Development] darthlukan:
So I tried to think of what I could do to make this thing finally tap out and burn a hole in my battery last night while I was doing a mock up of a mobile ubuntu os based on cyan's kernel. Guess what it took for this phone to finally stall out for a whole two minutes before responding visually...........

I'll help you out: re-downloading the 4.1.6 rom OTA through cm updater, tethering to my spider rig (no net, just tether), downloading latest gentoo snapshot image from gentoo site (via computer browser) , batch copying 1GB of music from my computer to the phone's sd via usb 2.0, and adb installing a complete line up of 85 apps to my phone through adb console.

Phone is clocked with setcpu to 528 min/max, using linux swap of 86MB, no cc, no back swap (swap configged with userinit script).

It took 2 minutes after that whole test for my phone to open the browser and load xda forums... not a bad stress test imo.

Great job cyanogen :-)
[G1 Android Development] cliffrowley:
Not seeing any of the random reboots a lot of people here are experience - only once or twice while playing a game.

However I did notice that:

Whereas previously I had my ringtones and such in /system/sd/media/audio/* which would be automagically picked up by the system, they now seem to be ignored and I am left with only 1 choice of ringtone or notification sound.

I am seeing the battery drain a LOT quicker than previously, but I am assuming this may be because cyanogen either hasn't yet applied/enabled all of his patches or that some extra (donut specific) optimizations are required.

When I make a call, the call screen takes a little while to appear and often the I can hear the other end ringing before it does. And when it does appear, it says "Uknown" for a second or two before showing the name or photo of the person I'm calling.

dxTop is behaving weirdly, but this is obviously nothing to do with cyanogen or the mod but rather dxTop needing to be updated for donut. I have sent a message to the author, who does support cyanogen experimental releases (and has updated dxTop on this basis before).

All in all, great work cyanogen - obviously we're still a little way from a stable release, but considering this is only the 2nd release since rebasing on the donut code it's pretty darn amazing.
[G1 Android Development] nightwolf2k5:
can someone pls pls post a vid of this rom? I saw the vid of Jac Hero1.8 n was impressed with BFS.. it was so smooth.. especially on an otherwise laggy hero rom..

Gets me just curious like mad wondering how this rom would be..

:)
[G1 Android Development] omgbots:
Make sure your phone isn't USB connected to your computer. The phone won't see more than 1 option while until you disconnect. Took me a minute to figure that one out as well.
[G1 Android Development] cliffrowley:
It's not connected via USB, and besides the audio files are in /system/sd not /sdcard :-)

EDIT:

Solved temporarily. I've bundled all the media files here: http://blog.eleventyten.com/stuff/android/media.zip. Unzip and do the following:

- adb remount

- adb push media /system/sd/media

- adb shell rm -rf /system/media

- adb shell ln -s /system/sd/media /system/media

- Reboot your phone

Then you should have all the ringtones and sounds available again. Will probably have to do this for the next few releases I suspect.
[G1 Android Development] shaneaus:
I have done a search on this thread for turning of the animated screen rotation. My screen bobs around for 4-5 seconds every time I rotate my phone! I like the auto rotate - but, turning off that dang bobbing around/swiveling animation is a MUST!! I HATE IT with a PASSION!!!!

I have tried turning off all animations. I installed Spare Parts and turned off all animations and turned off "fancy animations." IT STILL bobs/swivels!

Can someone please tell me how to turn that crap off! I like the animations between programs. Maybe someone can tell me how to change it so the screen rotation does the same. I had a ROM previously that worked that way and it worked quickly.

Please just PM me as I don't want to clutter up this thread. When I am provided some info that I can confirm works - then I'll update this post!

If I missed the answer somewhere else - please forgive me. I did about three searches with no answer that I have not tried yet.

Edit: Ok, I found an older SpareParts.apk that let me turn off the "fancy rotation" But, I would still like to find the settings for the rotation that shrinked the screen and then expanded it rotated to the new orientation.
[G1 Android Development] kerauno:
Is it safe to say, "you are not using a sd card"?
[G1 Android Development] Binary100100:
I can confirm this as well. Perhaps there is an issue with the GPS because my Locale is being tempermental with all of the gps location based rules.
[G1 Android Development] cliffrowley:
Sorry I don't quite understand :-)
[G1 Android Development] t1h5ta3:
bat life complaint? not here 7.5 hours since pulled off the charger, still 67% remaining.

try conditioning the bat a time or two.

usage:

37% standby

33% idle

16% wifi

7% display

3% google maps

2% android system

2% android os

i dont recall standby useing so much rescource? posably every thing else useing less causeing % to sque? or maby minor radio issue with bfs ( my guess based on cm tweets )
[G1 Android Development] kerauno:
If telenav and locale use google map, there may be an issue. Using weather channel, accuweather, places directory you will see a small blank square in the bottom right. This small blank square may be causing a problem with those apps. Cyanogen is aware of the blank square.

I use copilot and there are no problems with gps routing. But it uses it's own map.

No problem. Just wanted to verify that you do not have a sd card with a ext3 filesystem used for apps and you do not have a swap disk. Sounds like you don't, which might be why you are not experiencing the reboots.
[G1 Android Development] cliffrowley:
But I do have an SD card with an ext3, swap (currently not in use) and a fat partition :-)
[G1 Android Development] disturkis4u:
Hey any chance of incorporating that business card scanner into the next version?

Phone reboots during phone calls

Twice now my phone has rebooted during phone calls. Both times I was using my bluetooth headset, and it was about ten minutes into the call.

I'm going to roll back to the stable version for now, but I posted my logs to the Issue Tracker, HTH.
[G1 Android Development] paul89:
I had something weird happen today... Im using 4.1.6 and I was in class and my music player started playin while the phone was idle in my pocket with the G1 case over it to. When i went to turn it off the lock sreen was showing i pressed pause on the music widget but that didnt work so i turned down the volume and i opened the music player up then turned it off.
[G1 Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Make sure to run the below in terminal and upload the results, so we have something to work w/. You are looking for a file with "last" in it.

su
cp /proc/last_* /sdcard
[G1 Android Development] kerauno:
Actually cyanogen is looking for "apanic" files.

So also do the following

cp /proc/apanic* /sdcard
[G1 Android Development] Shane2:
That gave me a 'No such file or directory' error when I tried it
[G1 Android Development] Rbrewer:
Im running the new experimental version on my myto uch and i love it. However i have to press my home key several times to get it to open. Can i use the Log Collector app to help resolve this? Just trying to help
[G1 Android Development] robstillholdin:
I have got 2 random reboots after hitting home key while asleep....also seeing "no service" on lock screen when waking up. Also power control widget and other widgets error loading upon waking up (sometimes).
[G1 Android Development] ka8zay:
Delete your Widgets and reset that fixed all of my problems, same with any programs that give you problems. Are you using a Theme with this version?
[G1 Android Development] Xidroid:
I've been running 4.0.4 on my 32B since it came out as a stable release.

I put 4.1.6 on it this morning and just tried to "upgrade" it. It caused havoc with FC's and reboots so I did a wipe. I repartitioned the SD card getting rid of the swap file, did the wipe, and then ran the 4.1.6 update. The browser FC'd every time I opened it. I cleared out the partitions on the SD card, wiped, and reinstalled 4.1.6 again and everything seems more stable now.

I've had several random reboots and some random FC's. Otherwise it seems pretty stable and very fast. I'm looking forward to 4.1.7!
[G1 Android Development] traicer:
anyone able to upload photos to picasa with this new build, i keep getting "error retry in 1 minute"
[G1 Android Development] elzee:
Some Cop saw it and had it for his morning break!! Move along, nothing to see here! :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] clarkeismine:
4.1.6 Sounds like I am under water

After flashing, wiping, reflashing 4.1.6, people keep saying that I sound like I am underwater if I have anything else other than full signal bars. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? I tried flashing the stable version and it still has the same issue now...
[G1 Android Development] Afirejar:
I'm also getting that.
[G1 Android Development] grindking:
i am also getting this error. :( did any of you find a solution?
[G1 Android Development] ThR1LL:
OK so my phone has restarted 11 times in the past 24hrs (Yes, I've counted) while I've been talking on the phone. I did that 'cp /proc/last_* /sdcard' thing and I attached the file it gave me. Hope this helps solve the problem :)
[G1 Android Development] kerauno:
Cyanogen's also looking for a file that that starts with "apanic" in the /proc directory.

cp /proc/apanic* /sdcard

Have you considered removing all files from the ext3 partition. Then wiping and re-installing the rom?

Then use it for 24 hours in its default condition to see if it still reboots.

Then after 24 hours of no reboots, try installing a couple of market apps.

If everything is ok after 24 hours, try installing a couple more market apps.

It might narrow things down for cyanogen. No one has been able to provide the file that starts with "apanic".
[G1 Android Development] tardie:
Stericson lockscreen? Are we going to see it in 4.1.7? I haven't gotten the chance to try it yet because I have gotten so addicted to the speed of 4.1.6! I haven't had any of the problems that most of us have had the sides the occasional FC every now and again, but not even anymore than when I was running 4.0.4, so it probably wasn't the builds fault. Either way I am extremely excited to see what comes next. Sure the Donut TASTES like jet fuel, but it sure as hell tastes a lot better :D
[G1 Android Development] Afirejar:
On the contrary, I found more problems. I also can't create albums and the phone can't fetch the existing albums. Every bit of Picasa connectivity is broken.

Temporary work-around: email upload

Doesn't fix anything, but at least it gets your pictures on Picasa.
[G1 Android Development] ThR1LL:
I've reflashed 3 times. First time was a no-wipe. Next 2 I did fastboot erase boot, fastboot erase recovery, fastboot flash recovery, wipe, reformat SD, wipe, repair ext partition, and finally flashed.
[G1 Android Development] dcplaya:
Probably not since Cyanogen is trying to get all the rebooting and other issues worked out first but he may surprise us, I dont know and he hasnt mentioned anything about it
[G1 Android Development] str4vag:
Same problem with me. "Retrying in 1 Minute"
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
4.1.7 is out! This has a new kernel with the latest BFS patch, an few Android-specific fixes for BFS, and a bunch of supporting code from mainline. Also some other goodies like an updated HTC_IME that I ported from Hero to Donut.

Hopefully this results in less crashes. Let me know how it goes!
[G1 Android Development] str4vag:
Double post*

Mode please delete.
[G1 Android Development] dcplaya:
Do you recommend a wipe if we had issues on 4.1.6?
[G1 Android Development] pgarza:
what type of issues were you having besides the already known radio issues?
[G1 Android Development] PorchSong:
i went from 4.0.4 to 4.1.6 to 4.1.7 with all apps on sd card on a ext4 partition and no wipes; and so far, with no problems what-so-ever. Now, my 4.0.4 was from a wipe and complete reinstall of all apps and data via MyBackup. Still cannot get over how much faster my MT3G is.
[G1 Android Development] dcplaya:
Just the standard issues everyone else (including me) have reported.

A few random reboots

Random music

Im going to wipe just in case and just restore from Mybackup for Root users
[G1 Android Development] ThR1LL:
Hey did you check out my market fc problem i posted on the bug tracker?
[G1 Android Development] pgarza:
well id try without a wipe first... those random reboots were not caused by not wiping.
[G1 Android Development] dcplaya:
Alright, Ill try that first (once it finishes downloading)

Im all pretty new to this so I am not sure exactly what gets overwritten during a ROM update
[G1 Android Development] pgarza:
no worries. but since you are new, id let us rom junkies eat the new releases up and be the "guinea pigs" with the bugs so we can post for cyan and you guys to know before jumping all in and then getting some random issues.
[G1 Android Development] ThR1LL:
Not completely true since I had kernal panics constantly while on the phone after a fresh install. I wiped everything including fastboot erase boot and davlik-cache before I flashed the rom
[G1 Android Development] dcplaya:
I like staying on the bleeding edge, makes everything a little more exciting! Im no stranger to experimental/beta testing programs, just to Android with a little experience in linux commands.

Plus, I can learn quicker this way! :)
[G1 Android Development] ThR1LL:
Is it just me or do the powerbar icons not show up on 4.1.7?

EDIT:

Nvm a reboot fixed that lol
[G1 Android Development] simms22:
wow . 4.1.7 . no wipe . 3 minute update . g1 and android screen !

cyanogen , this is amazingly smooth , right off the back . no lagginess on reboot from update . thank you once again . no issues to report except that i cant put this thing down , thanks to you :D
[G1 Android Development] simms22:
mine is still there
[G1 Android Development] XxKOLOHExX:
If your talking about the Power Control Widget i have it working
[G1 Android Development] nspbass:
Just you so far...
[G1 Android Development] simms22:
this is by far the fastest of all the roms since 3.2 for me . i am just blown away . much faster than 4.0.4 , and 4.0.4 was fast !
[G1 Android Development] technicolor:
Just now flashed 4.1.7 - so far so good everything is really fast. Thanks cyanogen keep the good work and we are here to support you
[G1 Android Development] ichibanpnoy:
wma?

4.1.7 still doesn't recognize .wma files. :\ is my only option copying all mp3s over to sdcard again?

on a positive note, ridonculously snappy rom cyan. love your work :)

edit: i've been using 4.1.2.1 since it still supports all of my music files. would i find any benefit from applying 4.1.7's boot.img and wlan.ko to 4.1.2.1?
[G1 Android Development] delarosa_hr@yahoo.com:
Your f'n awesome Cyanogen!!! Keep up the good work!! :D
[G1 Android Development] g1lol:
Flashed 4.1.7....its really fast. Thanks cyanogen.... keep the good work and we are here to support you.....only thing i request now is.....camera improvements...wmv video support.
[G1 Android Development] xidominicanoix:
uninstall, then reinstall the original HTC_IME
[G1 Android Development] dcplaya:
the HTC_IME is ported over according to Cyanogen but I cannot get it enabled.

Touch input is enabled, is there anything else I need to do?

I dont see is in /system/app folder either
[G1 Android Development] tardie:
I understand, it just said in the 4.1.5 change log that the next update would have the new lockscreen. It's not that important I was just wondering when we might see it.
[G1 Android Development] nxt:
Touch Input virtual keyboard updated?

Looks like the Touch Input virtual keyboard got updated?

I always run a fix_permissions after a new rom, and the _ is now on letter n instead of previously leter m, and now the , and . have shift keys on them.
[G1 Android Development] xidominicanoix:
yes it got updated .. can someone post a couple of screenshot .. im curious to see what's changed
[G1 Android Development] zimphishmonger:
4.1.7 seems to be running quite well. Quite boot, and I noticed that meltus's v7 (v2r2) seems to be working for some reason....

Anyone know if we can disable USB debugging, as the ongoing notification always appears when the device is plugged into USB and is not needed IMO.
[G1 Android Development] disturkis4u:
my weather widget isn't working on it.. it just says loading data... :(
[G1 Android Development] Smokuevo:
my weather widget donate works fine. try re-adding the widget! :) loving the new update so far!
[G1 Android Development] dcplaya:
@nxt

How did you get that enabled? I tried enabled touch input in settings -> Local & Text but it still shows the stock keyboard

I found HTC_IME.apk in /data/app folder
[G1 Android Development] Lollipop_Lawlipop:
Easy way - disable android keyboard
[G1 Android Development] disturkis4u:
if you long-press any text entry field and go to "input method" you can select touch input
[G1 Android Development] Keyser.Soze:
Just flashed from 4.1.6 to 4.1.7 without wipe. Hope the random reboots in 4.1.6 will go away in this version. I tried wiping in 4.1.6 and it didn't fix the reboots and those reboots weren't present in 4.1.5 or previous releases.
[G1 Android Development] disturkis4u:
i rebooted the phone and it started working :D

i feel naked being themeless though lol
[G1 Android Development] :
Hey guys is the camcoder working again in .7 ?
[G1 Android Development] dcplaya:
Awesome! That did it, thanks, I was looking in the wrong area for it

[G1 Android Development] :
To me it looks the same as the keyboard on the 4.0.4 build... can anyone enlight me on whats the difference please?
[G1 Android Development] dcplaya:
It seems to still be broken for me, it runs but when I hit record, the video freezes and then when I try to playback the file its corrupt
[G1 Android Development] free_fo_twenty:
cyan...ur da fuggin man!!!!...ben running ur roms since 3.6.8.1 n all I can say is wow..small problems here n there nothin 2 cry about...running 4.1.7 and this thing is fast..keep up da good work
[G1 Android Development] str4vag:
anyone else still getting the same picasa "Retrying in 1 minute" error when uploading?
[G1 Android Development] AndroidFiend:
Is anybody getting the "problem loading widget" problem I get it even while using stock widgets, I can put em on and they show but when I reboot it says "problem loading widget".....is this a known problem and if so why?
[G1 Android Development] prettyboy85712:
Yes, just tested it with the same result.
[G1 Android Development] JustSuds:
My favourite feature

I've noticed that the hidden apps drawer/extended menu is gone now. I would like to politely ask if it's an easy feature to port back into your builds please Cyanogen?

I know it was in CM4.0.4 but I haven't seen it in 4.1.x at all. It was a phenomenally useful feature.

lol, I'd stick to 4.0.4, but the features in 4.1.7 far outweigh the bugs. I'd also like to throw out there that 4.1.6 and 4.1.5, even though they are superseded now but 4.1.7, were extremely slow builds for me and my G1.
[G1 Android Development] AsaSpades:
Never been disappointed with ur roms, and never will be, keep up the good work Cyanogen all ur work is amazing
[G1 Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Haha, I just stumbled upon a very humerous bug...I was on the phone, and all of a sudden a Foo Fighters mp3 started playing in the background, and I looked and no music app was running :confused:

I killed all tasks and it stopped, but figured I should throw that out there. Not a good thing in class or a meeting :eek:

Anyone else run into this??
