i just flashed to 3.6.7.1 and had no luck in turning the wifi on. the error is "Unable to start wifi". such a shame as everything else seems to be pretty good and fast. unfortunately, i work in a basement half the time and wifi is my only access to the outside world, so i'll be going back to nk's ROM for now. thanks for trying. hopefully i'll be able to use your ROM one day.
[G1 Android Development] iflyabeech:
I had rebooted multiple times and also ran fix permissions via adb.....somewhere along the way my quickoffice began working! but the tones were still not working....

FIX:After reading your post, I rebooted to recovery and ran fix permissions from there, and now my dial tones are working!

Which means that this ROM is smmmmmmokin again without any problems at all!!!! Thanks for your help, all! :D

i tried searching about the "My Fave Fives" thing and couldn't find an answer... Is that being supported in this rom? i flashed this rom but the "my faves" icons doesn't come out so anybody can answer question?
[G1 Android Development] kockroach:
This has been answered before. Please try searching a little more before asking a question. The modded ROMs don't have MyFaves, and you cannot install it from somewhere else. However, you can still manage your Faves from your T-Mobile account.
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
This was actually covered in the forum that was closed last night, but to answer your question...Fav Fives is a t-Mobile service, not a program on the phone.

So, don't worry, you won't lose the service and if you need/want to change any of them, then you need to do so through the t-Mobile website :)

thats a feature, not a problem! :) Stericsons lockscreen tweak...see cyans first post in this thread!
[G1 Android Development] temporizer:
If your screen is locked with a pattern, it won't pull down. This is a custom lock screen made to let the dock be pulled down if there is no pattern.

modprobe and /system/modules

Cyanogen,

All the compcache enabling examples used insmod and I wondered why, since modprobe is a lot cleaner. For one thing, those userinits are going to break if/when you rev the kernel version again.

It turns out that modprobe from busybox isn't working and the reason seems to be that the modules are actually in /system/modules/lib/modules/2.6.29-cm instead of /system/modules/2.6.29-cm.

Is there a reason for those extra 2 directories in your squashfs image?
[G1 Android Development] inoah:
modprobe and /system/modules

Sure enough, it works if I create a symlink. To do that, I had to move the mountpoint:

# umount /system/modules
# mount -o remount,rw /system
# mkdir /system/modules/modules
# mount -t squashfs -o ro /dev/block/loop0 /system/modules/modules
# ln -s modules/lib/modules/2.6.29-cm /system/modules/2.6.29-cm
# modprobe ramzswap
# lsmod
ramzswap 8232 0 - Live 0xbf09b000
xvmalloc 3756 1 ramzswap, Live 0xbf095000
wlan 566844 1 - Live 0xbf000000
#

So if you change modules.sqf to eliminate the top-level lib/modules directories, the compcache userinit fragment can be greatly simplified:

if modprobe ramzswap; then
mknod /dev/ramzswap0 b 253 0
echo 60 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
swapon /dev/ramzswap0
fi

Thoughts?

Radio Flashing Question

Hi All,

I have been reading a lot about the danger of downgrading the radio and I have found myself with a dilemma.

I currently run Cyanogen 4.1.2.1 and am very happy with it, but... I want to flash JACxHERO 1) because I want to see what Hero is all about, 2) because I want more experience in the custom rom community, and 3) because I can.

My question relates to whether I can or not. I know that I need the latest radio and SPL but I checked my radio and I currently have this one: 65.50S.20.17U_2.22.19.26I. The link here http://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/ says I need to have 62.50S.20.17H_2.22.19.26I to flash Hero.

Someone has said that my radio is the UK version. I don't know how that happened unless it came with the zip of Cupcake that I manually flashed before I rooted my phone. So I have the following question:

If I flash the radio to: 62.50S.20.17H_2.22.19.26I from 65.50S.20.17U_2.22.19.26I is that a downgrade and would doing so potentially brick my phone.

Side question: I know this is not the topic of this board but maybe someone could PM me. Has anyone installed JACxHERO with the 65.50S.20.17U_2.22.19.26I radio?

Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] All~G1:
This is not the right thread for that. If you want to install a Hero ROM the ask your question, or even better, SEARCH, the particular thread of the ROM you wish to flash on your phone. If you can't find the answer then post the question in that ROM thread.
[G1 Android Development] brios86:
Everything worked but then when I started putting everything back it dosent work again this time I didn't put the theme in it,

​

I'm also using better cut to change some icons but I dun think that is the problem.

Is there a limit to the amount of stuff you can have on your home screens or something I don't know what is causing this can it be another app causing this?

[G1 Android Development] mmace:
I installed the latest experimental this morning but had problems (see below) and I've installed 4.0.4 3 times since but having problems with this too!

Each time I've done a wipe, formatted ext3, wiped, repaired file system and then installed ROM

The problem I'm having is that all my contacts are "missing"

if I press my call button or press contacts I get a force close (acore).

If I go to write an SMS or Email then no contacts come up when I start typing.

BUT, if I set up an anycut shortcut to a text message then all my contacts are there.

If I go in to settings-data synchronisation it says for contacts:

"sync is currently experiencing problems. it will be back soon"

As I said, I keep wiping and installing the ROMs but it does this every time

any ideas?

(I've come from JAC's Hero ROM but the phone was so slow it was unusable as a phone)
[G1 Android Development] Metal_Hurlant:
SIGTERM not passed properly to processes?

I'm on cyanogen 4.0.4.

I'm playing with setting up scripts (using gscript light) to spawn and shut down various processes (using a debian image) such as sshd or X.

As far as I can tell, sending SIGTERM to any process has absolutely no effect.

Sending SIGKILL works fine, but prevents any clean-up.

Is this an expected behavior of Android, or something unique to Cyanogen?

Is there still a way left to ask politely for a process to shut down?

I'm going to write a little testcase to confirm which signals a process gets to see, but if this is a known behavior, please have mercy on my sanity and write a quick reply.

*edit:

Ok, after further testing, this appears unrelated to Cyanogen, and appears to be an artifact of running programs off of a Debian environment. Effectively, Debian programs never receive any signals, while programs started from outside the Debian environment receive them just fine.

So that doesn't solve my problem, but it's most likely not a Cyanogen ROM issue.

*edit2:

All "/system/bin/sh" processes on android appear to be spawned with a sigprocmask set to 1,3,10,15. That's apparently normal.

However, any process spawned from an interactive root shell is ignoring the same signals, and cannot be HUP'd or TERM'd properly.

That's a lot less normal.

This is not a debian issue, and appears to affect shells spawned from Terminal Emulator, ConnectBot's local mode and ADB shell.

Given that the parent processes of those "sh" processes don't have the sigprocmask set, I think this is hard-coded (and bogus) behavior in the source of the "/system/bin/sh" shell itself, possibly in forkchildren()'s function in jobs.c (http://github.com/android/platform_...41e1c2f3b5a347a5aebaa5853186b663471/sh/jobs.c )

Can't make calls using BT headset

Hi,

I installed 4.0.4 a few days ago and i have been running it without any problems save for one. I have been using my Dell BH200 to listen to music on my G1, and while it will skip ever so often i considered it as passable and had no problems with it. However once i tried to make a call, the phone would disconnect my headset once the call was started. I tried the headset with other phones as well as my computer with both profiles and they work fine, but it refuses to stay connected when i connect it to the G1 and make a call.

If i connect to the phone from the headset, it just activates the media profile, which i assume as being normal. And when i connect from the phone i get Media and Phone connected, but if i hold press it to access the settings of the paired device i get a force close. Does anyone know why this is happening or how i might go about getting it to work. I really do love this rom and i would like to continue using it.
[G1 Android Development] treperio:
one problem on cyanogen 4.0.4

when someone call me, the phone vibrates 2 times before starting the ringtone...

it's a bug? or what?
[G1 Android Development] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
No, it's one of the advanced settings Cyan cooked into his ROM. I enjoy it actually, because it lets me know when someone picks up, but I digress. Just go to Settings, then Call Settings and disable it.
[G1 Android Development] blueheeler:
He's talking about someone CALLING HIM, not him calling someone.

I remember them discussing the problem, but I'm not if there is a solution or not. It's not just a CyanMod problem. It spans them all (or most, anyway).

Any one found bugs in version 4.0.4?

1. When I tried to delete and format the SD card, it failed and could not remount the card.

2. When I entered the market, the featured application list could not be shown.
[G1 Android Development] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
I know, and when I had disabled that feature through the settings, it stopped doing that. However, it can have been a coincidence, but who knows. And again, I like the feature so I have since re-enabled it.
[G1 Android Development] vixsandlee:
I had a problem that sounds similar to what you are having, this is how I solved it (remember to backup your contacts first) and dont blame me if it goes wrong.

On the hero rom the third tab on the contact list contains a system group (or something similar) I deleted that, and then it worked fine in other roms.

When my contact list was crashing with android.process.acore I noticed that I couldnt sync (same as you) and gmail had no contacts listed when I checked it via a PC.

If I installed a hero rom (anyone) the contact list worked fine.

SO I went through the slow process of deleting each contact one by one, to see if I could figure out what contact was causing me to fail, but it was that system group one that was causing the crash.

I dont know where it came from, or how it got there but one day I could switch between hero and non-hero roms, the next i couldnt and that is what was causing it,.

Sorry I couldnt be any clearer, but I dont have a hero rom on my phone to take exact screenshots etc...

Just make sure you backup the contact list first :D
[G1 Android Development] skrki:
Yeah, I've just noticed the issue with the featured market apps.

It's not that they're just missing the image, but clicking also doesn't work, so I'm thinking there's no connection to them at all.

Help - please..

Hi all,

have run into a bit of a problem

OK - over the last few days i got a load of FCs and today i was still having all these issues with FCs on all my apps but added to this i was now also getting FCs on android.process.core and android.phone

So none (nearly all) of my apps were working and i had no contacts available on the phone even though they are all on the sim card - every time i try to import them it FCs on me

I decided to do a nandroid restore to get me back to where i was before all these issues started happening

Went into the recovery menu and selected nandroid restore and it did its thing with no problems.

but now after rebooting following the "successful" restore

my phone is hanging at the G1 screen

I have left it over 30 mins but no good.

i have pulled the battery and powered up and still hangs at the G1 screen

what have i done wrong?? and more importantly - what do I need to do to fix it

I am running CM4.0.4 with latest radio and apps2sd - recovery is Ra_Anon

Please help me out guys - i have been looking at a G1 logo on my phone now for hours - its starting to depress me:(

Cheers

John.

RANDOM! lol. ill keep testing to see how long it'll last this time.. might be either an app(doubt it) or cm 4.0.4 =/ or maybe im just insane lol

Something happened after build 4.0.2... something very bad

My G1 flys real fast on the 4.0.2 ROM... I upgrade to 404 and it sucks, I went to experimental build and it was trash, terrible.. In terms of speed.

Why are these builds getting SLOWER? I am going to stick to 4.0.2 for now as not much wrong with it... but WHY is this happening?

Why is 4.0.2 so much faster than the other builds?

apps2sd automatic ?

so if i go back to root and flash the most recent cynogen rom, without a partitioned sd card. the phone will then run as normal with all apps on the internal memory. then once i do create an ext2/ext3 partition then all apps will be automatically moved to the sd card? is that correct?

So I found something really weird. I rebooted my phone using the reboot option and it booted back up and none of my icons and widgets appeared on any of the screens.

I did a full power off and turned the phone back on and all my old icons and widgets showed back up, but get this, underneath all the ones I put back out after the reboot. So I had to drag all the ones that were sitting on top into the trash, how's that for a bug? I'm on 4.0.4 with a T-Mobile MyTouch.

hopefully last question, so i just flash cyanogen's recovery 1.4 then make ext 3 partition then flash cm rom?

and is ext 3 to store some system files including auto apps2sd?
[G1 Android Development] dcorrea:
the ext 3 partition is used for apps on your sd card. If you have an ext 2/ext 3/ext 4 partition, the cm rom will automatically transfer your apps to the sd card.

Here's a guide for partitioning ***edit***

nevermind, dont use that guide, it wants you to download apps2sd to autoformat but if you install apps2sd it could mess up your cm rom.

Instead use this guide..
