that means the alarm will continue to play for 30 minutes, instead of 10 minutes. or until you press dismiss, which ever is first.
[G1 Android Development] ubernicholi:
the phone doesnt charge in recovery.

you need to update your recovery image, its way out dated, the link is in my sig
[G1 Android Development] brownbomba:
One mo question please, I understand now that the "preparing sd card" is normal upon booting up. But what about the slight delay in the apps showing up in the app drawer?
[G1 Android Development] tiripshtaed:
Ah well, erm, could I get a brief intro on how to flash an image again from what I can tell I am supposed to leave the file name as is and store it into SD card and get into the terminal ( which I can't do since the phone wont boot) and I can't get into console (again I don't know particularly why, but I am using cyanogen mod v1.2 so it used to allow me to scroll up and down). Im trying to download the ADK app now but its 186 mbs and im kinda losing hope ..

Thanks,

Just rooted my phone and all that good stuff, then installed the latest build and it all went fine except I cant sign into the google account. And at random times when trying to do stuff the android screen will come up and I have to wait 20-30 secs before it goes back to the desktop, did this when I tried to sign into google after first installing. When I turn off my phone and turn it back on it wont go past the T Mobile G1 screen too.
[G1 Android Development] ubernicholi:
That's due to the "checking sd card for error" since the check is delayed till after the boot process , loading the launcher icons will be delayed until an sdcard scan is completed.
[G1 Android Development] brownbomba:
Im assuming thats my answer to my last question. Thanks.........dude...u da man!
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
Im not understanding this petition.... Why would it time out at 30 mins effect you loosing your job? If anything it will help you even more becasue it will ring and extra 20 more mins. Im not sure how people show there appreciation with ridiculous request like this.

:( please help, i stupidly followed this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=535232Upgrading your EXT2 Partition to EXT3[/URL] and i think i formatted my SD card ,now my Dream is stucked at the htc Dream logo. I am on the latest build. When i tried recovering to the latest backup , it says cant mount SD. Help please!
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
Why not just flash the new recovery image from cyan (1.4) wipe and reflash his latest update. You mentioned your phone won't boot...what update did you attempt to do to it? where is your phone getting stuck at...G1 screen? android screen? has your card been formatted and partitioned correctly? Just curious the more you provide in a post including a LOG the more the members can help figure out.
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
Your probably going to need to reformat your SD card. I tried looking for a post that has instructions on doing it but i can't seem to find the link (will post edit if i locate). However if you reformatt it correctly and reflash the update that will more then likely solve your issue with being stuck at the logo screen.
[G1 Android Development] NOback:
Thanks , Luckily i have a Card reader with me. When i plugged it to my computer it says , It needs to be format to use it. Formatting it now and then i will put in the Cyanogen rom and flash again.
[G1 Android Development] tiripshtaed:
well I cant reflash, thats the whole problem. I am not allowed to do anything on the phone, ok here we go:

I installed 4.03 thinking that was the latest, didnt wipe and everything was working fine, went to an internet site downloaded 2 pictures and saved them to my phone.

Phone rebooted and now constantly crashes in the g1 screen.

I can pop into the recovery console but from there I cannot do anything other than press alt+L

The error in the recovery console states: Build Cyanogen Mod v1.2 + JF

E: Error in CACHE: recovery/log

(no space left on device)

Alt + x does not work, in fact none of the commands work, ( no not even home + back) i have to soft reset to get the phone to work. Alternatively I can also enter the Camera+power screen and get it to say fast boot, but again cannot do anything.

I tried safe mode but that still doesnt work.

I downloaded ADB and since my phone will not boot windows will not recognize my phone and therefor ADB does not recognize my phone

No partitions on the SD card, it was literally a clean upgrade that seemed to work originally.

I am digging for a way to provide a log but im unable to see just how at the moment

Im such a newb to this and reading on how to do all this at the moment since this is the first time ive encountered any problems.
[G1 Android Development] iamReND:
Nice work, u are the best coder at the momento.

keep up the good work!!!!

Thanks for all your work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[G1 Android Development] NOback:
Yeah! Its working now. How do i go about having my applications installed to my SD card? Now i can see my SD card via the settings but the Secondary storage show as unavailable. Previously i did it the wrong way :P
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
I dont know if anybody else is getting this but it seems like its a little faster. I can scroll through things faster and it doesnt take as long to change screens. I love it keep up the great work.

i accidentally deleted my contacts icon from my app drawer on my g1, how do u get it back??
[G1 Android Development] PCTechNerd:
Wrong place for this question, but I will go ahead and answer :)

go into recovery and wipe. that will resolve.
[G1 Android Development] the_fish:
OMFG!

thats all i have to say @4.0.4... no, that's nothing bad actually :)
[G1 Android Development] mackster248:
Thanks for answering! I was hoping there would be another way other than having to wipe.
[G1 Android Development] axlastro:
A simple request?

Now that we have wpa enterprise, would it be too much to ask for AdHoc network support too? Thanks
[G1 Android Development] bornmw:
How do I remove icons from the drawer? I have removed some apps from the Cyanogen update.zip (Email.apk, IM.apk and some others), but IM icon is still present in the drawer!

How do I delete it from there?

Thanks!

And, Cyanogen rules (with some apps removed from it) :)

so weather widget donate doesn't work on 4.0.4 for me. it worked on 4.0.3.1. my weather channel widget works for some reason. so it's def an app error due to 4.0.4. also, this rom seems laggier than the 4.0.3.1. i get that same preparing sd thing now that fellow posted about earlier in this thread. so loading time on this new rom is slower for sure. anyway, those are the bugs i found so far :). hope it helps!
[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
Get the windows driver for adb devices: http://dl.google.com/android/android_usb_windows.zip and install it.

You have the android SDK (or at least that's what I'm guessing you mean by 'adb') so you have the rest of the tools necessary to get out of this.

Ok, I'm assuming you have some sort of a card reader and can get files onto your card. Go here: http://n0rp.chemlab.org/android/ and get cm-recovery-1.4.img . Save it to (for now) your C:\android-sdk....\tools directory for now.

Following http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=3915123 which says "use fastboot":

Plug in the phone with it turned off. Hold down camera and press power. You should see the three skating androids. If the text in the yellow bar doesn't say 'fastboot' hit the back button.

Windows should pick up on the phone and show it in device manager. ADB won't show anything but this should work:

Open a windows cmd window and cd to the sdk directory called 'tools'. Run the following commands:

fastboot erase recovery

fastboot flash recovery cm-recovery-1.4.img

fastboot reboot

The phone should try to reboot into normal mode. Once it does (and fails to do so) press the green, menu, red buttons and then hold down the home button and it should boot into the new recovery image. From there you should be able to update to the 4.0.4 rom.

I hope.
[G1 Android Development] deadite66:
small bash annoyance, i installed bash on the previous CM and it worked great but now with 4.0.4 when i su i lose bash and have to rerun it with 'bash --rcfile /sdcard/bash_profile'

any fix?
[G1 Android Development] opasha:
tell him: has he used the trackball lol? cuz thas all i do- i dont use commands to do anything except when i go into console. plug in your usb to your phone and to your computer. now go into console and press enter and then "su" if it says "sh su not found" or w/e then that's fine as long as you have the # there. then you type in "ums_enable" (give it about 10-15 seconds or so and this will open up your sd card folder right onto your desktop (just like you would when you press mount)). now from here- download cyanogen 4.0.3.1 or 4.0.4 and place it on your sd folder that is now open). if that doesn't work and you have missing folders and what not some guys can help you place or delete all that crap off your sd that is causing issues. but yeah if you can use the track ball man and push it down to "select" :).
[G1 Android Development] the_fish:
are you losing super user when running bash? strange...
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
I find this build to be very smooth and fast i didn't think there would be much a difference. However i thought the preparing of the SD card was done on purpose. Cyanogen made that in the update to load the sd card after boot instead of before boot. In doing so i don't get any fc's when I reboot or start up the phone.
[G1 Android Development] deadite66:
no losing bash when i su, have connectbot auto run bash on connecting.

sure this didn't happen with 4.0.3.1
[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
First: 'lol' is not punctuation.

Second: From what I can decipher out of your post, you failed to read that his recovery is a: Old and b: Messed Up.

tiripshtaed, I updated the post above with what I hope are instructions to get you back up and running.
[G1 Android Development] The Spirit:
please change the snooze time back from 30 min to 10 min
[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
Unless I'm completely misreading the changelog and twelve other posts on the subject.....

The snooze time is not 30 minutes.

The time it takes for the alarm to shut itself off is now 30 minutes (or, of course, whenever you hit snooze/dismiss).

I, for one, welcome our new longer alarm overlords. There's been more than a few nights I've woken up to a picture of a clock with red text saying "alarm timed out after 10 minutes" and had to rush to work.

So thank you, Cyan, for changing this.
[G1 Android Development] bornmw:
Or, which is better, tell us how to change it ourselves :D
[G1 Android Development] the_fish:
hmmm strange... but su'ing first and then running bash works right?
[G1 Android Development] opasha:
laughing out loud. i am sorry that i did not use a comma before my "lol".... ",lol?" thank you smart ass. i did not know xda had english grammar teachers like you on here. maybe you can correct drizzy and his grammar then. yes, i did think maybe he was in the old recovery, but if he can open the console, he can still type if i am not mistaken. if so, he can still remove and transfer files from entering in "ums_enable." since you're the genius, you can go from there :)...oh wait you're already ten steps ahead of me..."haha" - is that better?
[G1 Android Development] opasha:
that does make sense, but i guess the bugs are individual as usual because my weather widget just sits at the "loading data" part in 4.0.4. i threw it back in the trash and got the FC dialogue. i also got a random FC on chomp when it wasn't running, which was also strange. i went back to 4.0.3.1 and everything works again smooth and speedy like for you in 4.0.4 :). that's the good part though-- if one has a problem in one rom, there can always be a fix in another.

anyway, thanks for your feedback bro, appreciate it :)
[G1 Android Development] deadite66:
yeah, its not a huge problem just slightly annoying.
[G1 Android Development] RAQemUP:
I'm surprised people have a problem with the Alarm ring time extended to 30 mins from 10 mins. Is it not the point of the alarm to be sure to wake you up when you set it? Is it not a good thing to have the alarm ring for 30 mins nonstop in case you are in a deep sleep? It's great that it doesn't auto shut off after 10 mins now.
[G1 Android Development] The Spirit:
if the alarm rings, i hit snooze, so i´m able to take an addition short nap for 10 min an don´t forget to get up.

but 30 min is to long
[G1 Android Development] DarkFoxDK:
I think it's because they think it's snooze.... (Hint: It's not!)
[G1 Android Development] Afirejar:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't "su" just a shell that starts with root privileges? So if you run "su" from bash you'd be in that "su"-shell.
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
One last(?) time:

The alarm will sound for 30 minutes if you don't dismiss it before that time has run out.

Snooze is still 10 minutes.

Just out of curiosity which weather widget are you using. Ill try it and see it if updates for me since i havent had any issues so far with 4.0.4.
[G1 Android Development] opasha:
it's the weather widget donate (the flip clock one from the market that emulates the one from hero) i tried all formats of it (tiny small and large) except the flip clock one because i have no space right now on my main screen for that. the ones that do work for me are the weather channel widget and the forecast widget (the current one i am using). yeah i didnt have any other issues with it.
[G1 Android Development] ID#:
I also use the weather widget donate + addon, flipclock, work fine :)

Cyans ROMs are the smoothies ROMs I tried up to now, real good work!

But since A2SD I have to much apps xD

Will there be a drawer in which you can create folders? Like Rogro's/Irrenhaus' ones, but their launcher seems to slow down the phone :S
[G1 Android Development] opasha:
yeah not sure what the deal is, but 4.0.4 is just really laggy for me. i re-installed it again with another theme and i was using aurora and man does it lag with typing and also loading apps when clicking on theme in general. sorry guys, im just gonna wait till 4.0.5 :). it must be that preparing sd afterward deal (instead of causing FC before it causes FC now)
[G1 Android Development] RAQemUP:
I wiped my phone, installed the radio and dangerSPL then the 4.0.4 rom. I then reinstalled all my programs and my phone is running silky smooth.
[G1 Android Development] sflande:
anyone have the issue of the sound turning off when a music player is playing and a phone call is received while having the headphones plugged in? I don't have the issue but a friend of mine does running the same rom. I reformated his sd card hoping that might fix the issue but no dice. the only way to get the sound back is by rebooting
[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
What version is the friend running? This issue was reported with 4.0.1 but reported as working in 4.0.2: http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=54

ETA: Also, make sure he's using the 2....26i radio, as another reporter of a similar issue had the problem go away when they upgraded.
[G1 Android Development] ei8htohms:
um, did you try it without a theme?

Has anyone even update a theme for 4.0.4 yet? This does NOT sound like a ROM problem. I'm running 4.0.4 without a theme and it runs wonderfully so far.
[G1 Android Development] sflande:
hes running 4.0.3.1. he had the issue on an earlier version on Cyans rom. I was hoping it might go away with the newest one
[G1 Android Development] kerauno:
Are you using a theme?

I have no problems with any apps.
[G1 Android Development] beej199:
Update to the latest radio, download the image from the link on the first page and then flash like a rom image. This fixed the issue for me.
[G1 Android Development] beej199:

I have a general question. Is it better to run fat/ext4/swap or just fat/ext4 with these roms?

2 or 3 partitions?
[G1 Android Development] Hexxer:
Can anyone tell me the correct way to update ?

Ive got a german g1 and on every update i have to wipe my phone completly - nothing else works.

I take the 1-Klick root method and it works perfect, but the updates are hell

With the "cyano Updater" it stand still in "writing boot rom" and the recovery-menu appears. with the "hand method" and put it on sd, select apply any update ans select the update i like i have to wipe all ....restore from nandroid give a bootlogo, nothing else for 40 minutes.
[G1 Android Development] tekkitan:
Everyone needs to start asking these general update questions in the Q&A forum. This thread is not for general help, it is for discussing cyan's ROM and nothing else.
[G1 Android Development] ei8htohms:
do you wanna run swap?

Ever since Cyanogen installed the compcache SWAP_FREE_NOTIFY tweaks I've found the performance running his ROMs stock (compcache enabled by default without backing swap) to be so good that I haven't felt the need to make any changes (no userinit script). As such, I'm not even using my Linux-swap partition (3rd), but it's not hurting anything and I may want to use it again at some point, so I'm leaving the SD card as is for now.

If you have a decent sized SD card relative to how you usually use it (i.e. you can afford the space), I'd put a 32MB Linux-swap partition on it even if you don't plan to use it immediately. That will save you the hassle of reformatting your card if you want to add it later.

The short answer is that these ROMs will run with 1, 2 or 3 partitions.
[G1 Android Development] sflande:
I'll give that a try. Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] schwiz:
Is the alarm timing out in about 3 seconds now (instead of 30 minutes) for anyone else?
[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
I'm not gonna listen to it for the whole half hour but it's definitely going longer than 3 seconds here.

Though it does seem (and has for the past several roms since late 3.6 I think) that if I flinch in the general direction of the phone it will snooze. Pick it up and brush the touch screen or flex the screen/keyboard or roll the trackball and it'll snooze. Maybe there's an accelerometer event firing. Of course, the 3rd time I try it just now it doesn't do it until I press the button.

But if I let it sit it'll keep going and going and going.

Oh, while we're talking about the alarm.... Is it just me or did the lock screen used to display the next time the alarm would sound, even if that next time was the 3rd snooze from an alarm 20 minutes ago? Granted, I'm pretty bleary when I wake up but sometimes when I hit snooze it'll still show 2105 as the 'next alarm' time on the lock screen and sometimes it'll show 2115. I think I first started noticing this when the battery got taken off the lock screen back in the 3.9.somethings....
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
I would agree. Compcache with the swap_free_notify fix removes the need for having a linux swap and I haven't found that it slows down the phone like a swap does after a couple of days.

I've been really envious of the people that own the htc hero or htc magic 32a with the 288megs of RAM, but with the tweaks to compcache, I finally feel that I have enough RAM now on the g1.

I'm running with a 32meg (up from the 24meg default) 60 swappiness compcache swap with no backing swap or swap partition and its great. The actual amount of RAM 32 megs of swap uses is only 13 megs. Meaning the 32 megs of uncompressed data compresses down to 13 megs.
[G1 Android Development] facelessuser:
It appears getting a new phone form T-mobile fixed my battery charge issues. Never could get a response on my permissions issue, so I reformatted my ext partition and wiped everything. Seems everything is running smooth with 4.0.4. Not sure how things got so messed up, but all is fine now.

Hi

Treated my wife to nice new 16gb class 6 card, partitioned as fat32/ext3/linuxswap to help her move away from her ipodt

The Cyanogen inbuilt Apps2sd automatically worked and phone runs like a dream (even though is Magic lol ;-)

Brief question, that search hasn't revealed any answers for... IF we wanted to reinstate the apps to the phone and disable apps2sd, how would we go about it? The apps2sd thread alludes to this, but doesn't elaborate and I don't know if that works for Cyanogen's method.

You're in luck I have written a post on the subject:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4393924&postcount=15

Note that the one thing I never did in testing that was remove the second partition on my sd card. If one wanted to permanently move the apps2sd, you could skip the 'a2sd' change and just do the other instructions to move the apps back to internal memory then delete the second partition on the sd card.

The context I wrote the post in may be a bit weird if you don't read the thread, but it'll still get the job done.
