No wonder I had such a hard time getting rid of xenio's contacts app...

Enom, when is the next update? I think I am just going to wipe my phone and start clean. This sound issue I am having bugs the *#@$ out of me...
[G1 Android Development] Zonk76:
Maps Navigation outside US

Enom, great work, also the last updates work well!

Could you be so kind to include in next update the modified Maps Navigation, which does work also outside the US? I have seen here at XDA solutions already how to enable. However I do not want to "hack" so much manually (if I understand the instructions at all) and I am afraid the modification is lost again with your next updates. So would be great to have it built in with your next release.

thanks a lot

It's most likely not the launcher but a widget that's not 1.6 compatible. Try removing widget by widget to find the offender. If it is a widget then odds are it will FC on basic launcher as well.

the only widgets im currently using are the flip clock weather widget, taskiller, facebook and pure calender.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I control features like compcache, linux-swap, CPU, etc?

A) Most features of the build are controlled with the terminal

command, 'expsetup'. Run this in the terminal after the 'su'

command, it's menu-driven.

If you're using adb:

C:\[I]itreallydoesn'tmatter[/I]> adb shell

And follow the menu.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:

As far as the next update ... it will be ready when it is :) perhaps a week or so.

[G1 Android Development] enomther:
It is an app that can in some instances allow you to run java based apps from other platforms on android. It does not always work and most users do not have a glaring need for it. Thus, it's an add on in exppack.

[G1 Android Development] mvanwyk83:
Thanks for the reply, with that being said...how do I uninstall this from my phone?

Also, your ROM's are the best I've ever used and hope you continue to keep it coming.

And how would I uninstall the modied kernels if I need to?
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
To uninstall a vsapp (like the java app) ...

Go into expsetup ... choose option #13 again ...

Say yes to clean.

Say yes to xDan java app, and no to all other apps.

Say no to install.

Say no to reboot.

Go into expsetup again and choose option #6, to uninstall.

When finished reboot. It will be removed.

To use homescreen rotation, you need to be using Advanced Launcher I believe. This can be enabled in the expsetup. Not quite as speedy as the standard launcher, but has these extra features.

Stock lockscreen

Hello. After a while I am on the HTC again :) Because I am a totally new in G1 android community I must ask you for an advice what to do. I got my G1 three days ago with TMO stock 1.6 UK and did everything from rooting to upgrading to AOSP-16. Now I released that I dislike theme-ing and this ICE lock screen. Everything else is great and I really enjoy this build. The question is, how to get back the stock lockscreen??? Is it possible without recovery with rooted stock TMO?

Thanks in advance
[G1 Android Development] Joe333x:
i asked enom about the lock screen and he said that right now there is no option to remove but there should be in future releases. I assume you may be able to push the lock screen through adb but im not sure. if it really bothers you cyans roms has default lock screen
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
Pushing the default is possible, but nontrivial, since it's in the framework. You're probably better off with switching to another ROM--either the ADP or TMO from this thread, or Cyan, as suggested. Dwang may also not have the lockscreen, but I'm not sure.

weird music

With this latest ROM, every now and then it will play some weird music. I notice that when I select "Notification ringtone" in set up, a menu pops up w/o any options. Do I need to reinstall or something?
[G1 Android Development] JackD3ath:
For people with sound issues, try to make a folder on your sdcard called Music, then inside that folder create the ringtones, alarms , and notifications folders. Drop whatever sounds you want in them. The sounds will show in the context menu (the menu that shows up when you go to change the tone). I have been doing this since last October (2008) and it has always worked.

I usually delete the system folders with the stock sounds to get that little bit of extra space. Hopefully this will help.
[G1 Android Development] jlacy76:
Just flashed to the latest rom and all is fine. Google Nav working great!
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:

/system/media

android will pull audio automatically .. no interference needed .. i have always set my audio files in the same folder structure as resides in /system
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
Man, this is going to sound totally newbish :o, but...

If I did something, it was purely unintentional :confused:

I'm not running RingsExtended or any other audio program...I discovered a few days ago my phone was showing double-ringtones & notifications. I found the /media/audio/ringtones (/notificatins) directory on my SD Card...I removed the audio files from /system/media/audio/ringntones (/notifications) and now all of my audio files show up only once...and all of my ringtones and notifications work just fine.

I thought it was something Enomther did with the ROM...
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
I think you answered the question better than I did...:)

That's good information to know...because, since I noticed this on my phone, I've been able to add all the ringtones and notifications I want without running out of room.

Apps2SD?

In all honesty, i have to say, that i'm really still confused with the whole apps2sd thing. it never really seems to work for me. i've got the rooted donut 1.6 no expansion. when i dwnloaded the apps2sd2 from tthe market, it didn't work. it kept on saying it needs to fix the SD, and partition it. when i already did that, using amonras recovery image in the phone. partitioned to fat32/ext2 (converted to ext3)/swap. so the apps2sd2 keeps on wanting to partion, although i'm connnected to wifi, and boot many times over, never works. ??? help.

:confused:
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
If you want A2SD, your best bet is to use the expansion pack, which provides it automatically with an appropriately partitioned SD card. If you're using Apps2SD2 with the base rooted ROM, and you can't get it to work, that's not an issue with the ROM (the base rooted ROM is just that; the only thing enomther did to them is root them) but an issue with Apps2SD2, so you should request support in its thread (that should be the right one).
[G1 Android Development] musikalfuture:
Thanks, i'll give the expansion pack a try. thanks for your help. i have the sd partitioned as fat32/ext2 (converted to ext3)/swap. .. should be fine right?
[G1 Android Development] Vlad83:
Audio

I fixed my sound issue, I flashed the v2 of the base AOSP and all sounds work perfect, don't know what that was about... Enom... ahem... if v1 works you don't have to flash v2... ahem... :rolleyes:

Those with sound folders on SD; audio, media, and ringtones are symlinked to /system/media All ROMs do that to free up the /system partition. You can push them back to /system if you have space to to reduce the lag...
[G1 Android Development] qwerty3656:
I did this (using a card-reader) and it didn't find any of the ringtones (both ringtones and notifications menus were empty), so I re-installed the base + expansion (w/o a wipe) and it found the directory for the notifications, but it created a new directory for ringtones (not in a subdirectory). I am just going to copy my extra ringtones to the newly created directory and delete the /media/audio/ringtones directory from my sdcard, but it is still not clear to me the "right" way to setup Songs , Pictures (pictures seem to appear all over the place on my SDcard - pictures folder, DCIM folder, snap photo folder), and ringtones on my SD card (in the context of flashing a new ROM).

EDIT - I noticed I had a space in my folder ("ring tones" rather than "ringtones"). Got rid of the space and it worked as advertized. Sorry for the false alarm.

Simply redo it in expsetup (option 16) and repick and choose what you want. Then reflash the theme template OR the theme you are using.

Wifi issues after using tether

ok, i flashed the HTC ADP 1.6 DRC83, and all is good. I was playing around with tethering, first of all, i can't get it to work, that part may be bc i'm using OSX instead of vista or XP, etc. that's not the main issue. the problem is that after using the tethering app, my wifi allofasudden stopped working. I isn't connecting to my home wifi, which i've been using for over a year now, with no issues. any thoughts on why it would be doing this.

as of now, thinking of just reflashing the ROM again, should fix it. :( ---musik--- :confused:
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
Xenio's. Cytown's is for Phone.apk.
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
In the default configuration, the tether app sets up your phone's wifi in ad-hoc mode. Your computer then connects to this ad-hoc network and uses it as its internet gateway. OSX should have no problem with this (neither should Linux). Further, everything should return to normal once you disable the tether.

If it gives you problems, and is acceptable, you might try running the tether in Bluetooth mode instead. I find it to be a more elegant setup, since connecting to a PAN is so easy in Windows and it doesn't mess up any of my wifi settings, phone or computer.

Guys....I had AOSP 1.6 with the expansion pack and then I updated to the latest expansion pack and my ext partition got corrupted. So unfortuantly I had to wipe everything and start again . So I loaded the latest build of AOSP 1.6 DRD20 and then loaded the exp. pack (latest) and for some reason some of the apps are not installing properly for whatever reason. The first time I did it, the Google Maps disappeared completely. Then i did it all again and this time the tether and one other app (still trying to find out which one, because the name is not clear) also got screwed up . it just showing an android icon and the name is android.com.tether...... So what is going on ??

A few issues...

Ok I was playing around with all of this builds with or without ext packs and I noticed two issues with my phone. First in RC7 1.0 build(used for rooting) I can pair and properly use my BT headset. When I click pair with the device I get prompt to enter code and after that everything is working like we all expect, but with any of 1.6 builds that is not a case :confused: There is no code prompt and the headset is pared without authorization which leads to not functioning like it should. I can answer a call but there is no tone in the headset. Any idea to fix this?

Second Issue is related to mediaserver difference. My phone has much better sound quality and higher volume with RC7 1.0. I tried Audio Hack and didn't achieve any improvement. :( Ring tones are so quiet that they are unusable and I need to boost them before using in the phone. Please help.
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:

TheOfficial writes over the file that Audio Hack modifies .. try using my script:

and see how that does (or any version you want)
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
Are you saying that you're losing functionality with your BT headset because it's not asking you to enter the four-digit code? If so, it may just be that your phone doesn't support all of the BT headset's functions...not all phones support all BT features.

My BT headset functions just fine without entering the four-digit code each time...I entered once, during the initial setup of my headset. I've NEVER heard phone tones (except ringing) in either of the BT headsets I've used on my G1, even when I was using the OTA ROM. I just assumed it was part of the setup.
[G1 Android Development] mobilx:
Im saying that my bt headset works in 1.0 build and does not work in this 1.6 build. It is the same phone so it is software related...

it is possible because they made some modifications to BT from the initial release of android .. you might be able to change something in the boot.img that will fix whatever you are experiencing

As far as the launchers ... Rogro82's is quite nice in concept, but seems to have stability issues. Mostly, when it's run over a longer period of time seems to slow the phone's performance down and also has some sporadic FC's from time to time. In contrast Cyanogen's launcher is very stable, just my opinions and experiences.

Hi rgl12miami,

This is currently being looked into as a possible resource add-on or vsapp.

It may be incorporated very soon. But there are some other feature sets in front of it on the priority list at this very moment. But could be soon.

I'll keep you posted.

Please make it a VSAPP option instead of built-in. I remembered JF's US rom had MT but it had to remove the odex file from the browser. This caused a lot of force close/wait messages when browsing the web. And the entire rom itself seems to slow down dramatically over time, I really hated it...

MT seems to only work well on ADP roms.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
DOHCtor,

You know it. Everything in this ROM will be optional. It's ALL about options! :)

The only thing I basically force fed upgrade wise was GoogleMaps and that was/is because it's a safe bet.

So just to be clear, any multi-touch feature would definitely be an add-on of some sorts.

Hi tommydjay,

Apps2SD is automatic is this build. Are you using the v1.5.2?

If so (and you partitioned correctly), Apps2SD is automatic. You do not have to download something from the Market to do it, the build does it for you.

Easiest way to check is to ...

Open up the TerminalApp and ...

mount

If you see mount statements for

/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd ...........

It is working.

Hope this helps.
