i dont know if anybody else has noticed this, but 2.0.3 isnt as responsive as 2.0.2 was. it seems like goign back to the home screen takes a bit longer, the browser lags a good bit, and when a call comes in it seems to take a bit longer. enom if you want i can get you a log file. i sift through them all day at work, and i tried to look at these and i'm clueless
[G1 Android Development] :
After I completed the Google setup wizard, I get a force close mentioning the wizard.

Are there more people experiencing this? I have wiped my phone before flashing.
[G1 Android Development] marty22877:
i get that a lot, once you get through it it doesnt happen again
[G1 Android Development] bmj1086:
I get that every time I install on any phone. Like marty22877 said, once you get through it you'll never see it again.

[shouldn't]
[G1 Android Development] bmj1086:
Lol, I didn't want to be the douchebag to come out and say this but I agree. The time it takes for the call to open is unreal. I seriously miss calls many times because I am waiting to see who is calling and it takes so long that they hang up or it goes to voicemail before I see who it is.

Also, the home screen was very slow at first for me until I added linux-swap back on. I wasn't using it with 2.0.2 and my phone was working very very well. With 2.0.3 I had to add it back because it was slow. With the linux-swap of 32m my home screen is good but The most irritating thing is the incoming calls. Do you want a logcat of when somebody calls? enom?
[G1 Android Development] marty22877:
i've missed about 4 calls and i woudl say almost all the calls coming in i dont see who it is until it's almost to voicemail. i was in the browser the other day and the phone rang and i completely didnt get to see who it was, the phone just rang, it was weird. and i'm not trying to knock your build at all, i love it, just giving feedback which i'm sure you appreciate.
[G1 Android Development] bmj1086:
Same here. It happens especially when in the browser. I know enom wants our feedback. Also I'll try to get a logcat on a phone call. Hopefully that will help him. Do me a favor and get one on your phone as well. That way we can compare and maybe he can figure something out. It may not even help but I'd like to have it for him just in case ya know?
[G1 Android Development] keenerb:
For what it's worth, I worked around this issue.

I flashed the AOSP base and update, restarted, and per usual it hung at the green mytouch3g screen.

I opened an adb shell, and mounted /system as read-write with the following command:

# mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
# chmod 777 /system

Then, I renamed the bad core.jar with

mv /system/framework/core.jar /system/framework/corebad.jar

Then I extracted the core.jar from the AOSP base ZIP file and pushed it onto the device, at which point it began booting normally and I'm now downloading apps...
[G1 Android Development] marty22877:
will do, enom just tell me what you want
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
To send me a log ... it's option #8 in expsetup. Then email the ep_log_XXXXXXXXXXXX.log file it creates to enomther at gmail dot com.

CompCache settings may be too aggressive. Send me the log and I will take a look.

Thanks.

[G1 Android Development] cloverdale:
I miss most calls that come to my phone, but up until now, I thought that was an added feature. :)
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
You should probably reroot and downgrade your radio ... that'll definitely solve it.

EDIT: OK OK ... b4 some1 actually does this ... that was a "joke".

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] marty22877:
do you want me to call my phone before i create the log? or just create the log?
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Yes ... try and reproduce the problem ... then immediately afterwards, gen/send the log.

Hi all,

I've had an interesting 18 hours with my (UK) G1...I upgraded from Hard SPL to Haykuro's SPL and then tried to reflash Cyan's 4.1.999...only to be met with the 'T-Mobile G1' screen. I've tried wiping the ext3 partition, repairing, wiping etc. with a couple of different methods - to no avail. If I go into the bootloader then all appears well and it looks like Haykuro's SPL has been successfully flashed, so I don't think the problem lies with that.

After discussions with ThR1LL, he's suggested I flash the latest AOSP version of this ROM.

I've had my head deep in xda's forums for more time than is healthy over the last 18 hours so, although I'm fairly certain that as a UK G1 user I'm safe to flash The AOSP1.6_r1.2+ADP DRC92 ROM with Donut (and the expansion pack), I'd just like to seek confirmation from a kind soul!

The current plan is to use parted to remove my ext3 and swap partitions, repartition with ext2 and swap, upgrade to ext3, reboot to recovery, wipe, flash, pray, wait, pray some more.

Does that sound like a recipe for success?!
[G1 Android Development] shapinoweno:
New issue. Everything is working great except.... imy dialpad. When I am in a call it will not let me use the dialpad on the touchscreen. Not sure what the issue is. Any ideas what I can do.

Amon ra recovery

1.6 doughnut

2.0.3 expansion

8gb class 6 sd
[G1 Android Development] bmj1086:
Reboot your phone. This issue only arises once.
[G1 Android Development] bmj1086:
Thats the best way to do it. That way has worked for me several times on several different phones. Also make sure you flash the base and the expansion pack without booting into the phone between flashing them.
[G1 Android Development] chowdarygm:
hi all,

any kind soul here can point me to the exact location of complete guide to install something called ADB (i am pretty new to android, so learning new terms daily, dont know how many more i have lo learn, but i am liking it) which will help to connect my new baby to my laptop

thank you sir..... i did this but didnt know what to do next to connect to the phone, was searching the whole day (pardon my poor search capability :( )

No worries..... got it :) thx
[G1 Android Development] thedoccwc:
Ahh, sweet salvation, I have a phone which boots up now!

I had to endure a few minutes of some sound playing a a 3 second loop as soon as the Google sign up process began and, as people have remarked, I got the force closes when I got to the end of the sign in process - no bother, just get rid of the message and then pick the home screen immediately after getting rid of the force close box....it'll go away eventually!

Thanks to dumbestcrayon for giving me the green light I needed. Sometimes you just need a knowledgeable soul to reassure you that the procedure you have in mind is the right one!
[G1 Android Development] bmj1086:
Not a problem. Glad you got it working. =p

No problem, thats what we're here for ;)
[G1 Android Development] lbcoder:
Here's a feature request:

Its a cool one ;)

Virtual keyboard kmod + fbvncserver

Think of this;

VNC server running on the phone. You can connect to it over network or by forwarding a port over adb. You can even control the phone entirely by remote... The uses are endless... tracking and security, communication with the thief and/or whoever found your phone after you accidentally left it somewhere, development without having to keep handling it -- one of the things that bugs me when developing is constantly putting pressure on the plug. VNC would let you test software on a REAL DEVICE without having to handle it.

I haven't had a chance to look at the keyboard driver patch in detail yet, it looks pretty simple and shouldn't be too hard to update to current kernel version. I *have* verified that fbvncserver *works* -- I was able to connect to the phone with it in *view only* mode.
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
Very clever, and seems obvious in retrospect. Nicely done.
[G1 Android Development] cloverdale:
Okay, so I tried to reroot the phone, but it keeps booting to a rainbow screen. Help!!! :):):)
[G1 Android Development] bmj1086:
Lol, too funny. You guys are going to brick somebody's phone for sure LOL.
[G1 Android Development] bkmo:
I'm jealous...I want a rainbow screen. Can I get one with one-click-root, or do I just have to downgrade my radio? :D
[G1 Android Development] bmj1086:
If you want the rainbow screen, flash a recovery and pull the battery while its flashing. DO NOT LET IT FINISH

LOL

:eek:

If you let it finish by accident just put your phone in a glass of diet soda for 11 minutes. Problem resolved.
[G1 Android Development] DOHCtor:
For sure man, I'll be waiting for 1.5. I nandroided back for now.
[G1 Android Development] skootah:
v1.4.2 is very nice. I lik the expsetup command. You gong to add more to this nice tool, right? I do also have the ui unkown artist in my music player app. This going to be fixed in 1.5 right? Great job again!
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
yes and yes

Hi skootah,

Thanks. Yes, there's going to be more incorporated in the 1.5 expsetup.

Also, the ui issue has already been resolved, there's a temporary work around if you read up the posts in this thread, it works. Since this really isn't a bug and is just mildly annoying, I won't be releasing another 1.4.x subversion to fix it. Yes, the 1.5 already has this resolved in its version.

[G1 Android Development] grayj16:
I am having issues with the apps2sd feature of this rom. It only seems to compress the file sizes instead of actually transferring them to the sd. Can someone please help?
[G1 Android Development] namsir:
SS = Screen shot

what's the benefits from this rom?
[G1 Android Development] phil83:

please delete
[G1 Android Development] PlatinumMOTO:
Just wanted to say thanks this rom is very fast and a good starter for those who don't want to change anything about their tmo rom but want root features well done.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
screenshots not necessary

Thanks PlatinumMOTO, appreciate it.

I was afraid you meant screenshots by 'ss'. When I read it I thought to myself, there's no possible way you could mean screenshots and here's why ....

In the basic (non-themed) version of this ROM, screenshots aren't really necessary, especially if you've ever seen a standard TMO G1 phone. It looks and is identical (with the exception of root and root features).

With themed additions, screenshots have been provided in their creator's post with links in the OP.

As far as the benefits of this ROM, this would primarily be stability and speed. The main benefit is that a root user can enjoy exactly what TMO publishes to its users with the additional root features desired. So for the most part, if a user is experiencing some issue, it is likely that all TMO users experience these issues. Those are the primary benefits, lack of issues (or stability) and compatibility with the entire TMO experience.

And with the additions of some current (and upcoming) features, speed (will be)/is another strong benefit.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
more info please

1st, the apps2sd does not compress anything.

2nd, please tell me which version you are attempting to use and how/why you think apps2sd is not working.

Let me know!

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
added EU version

By request,

I've added the Official TMO-CRC1 EU version.

Hope all enjoys, this was a b*tch to pull off! ;)

~cheers~
[G1 Android Development] grayj16:
I am using with the full feature version 1.4.2 with the expansion pack loaded on top of that. I have wiped my sd card several times and reinstalled using Cyanogen's Recovery image but each time the apps2sd feature does not kick in. Downloaded apps seem to be compressed rather than transfered to the sd card.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
2 things

Hi gray,

First of all, please understand that you do not need to run the expansion pack ontop of the fullfeatured. You only need the fullfeatured.

So initially I would recommend you wipe and reflash the fullfeatured only.

Also, if you open the TerminalApp and run the following commands ...

su
busybox ls -l /system/sd

What output do you get?

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] grayj16:
it gives me the following:

app

app-private

dalvik-cache expstick

lost+found
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
That looks like the correct output. It would appear things are working correctly.

Are you saying that when you ...

su
busybox ls -l /system/sd/app
busybox ls -l /system/sd/app-private

That you don't see your apps installed?
[G1 Android Development] koolmick:
How do you get the sounds for when you select something to work on this Rom?...
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
work around

Hi koolmick,

This is a known issue in the v1.4.2, it will be fixed in the v1.5. Till then, here is the work around.

Open the TerminalApp on your phone and enter the following commands exactly ...

su
busybox mount -o rw,remount /system
busybox mkdir -p /system/media/audio/ui
busybox cp /sdcard/ui/* /system/media/audio/ui
busybox rm -rf /sdcard/ui
busybox mount -o ro,remount /system

Reboot your phone. That should do it!

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] koolmick:
Thanks, I'll give it a try right now...

Hi LucidREM,

So I downloaded and MD5'd the files, they look good. So I posted your links in OP w/MD5 sums.

Appreciate you sharing with others. I'm still patiently awaiting hosting space on androidspin (:rolleyes:), SimonNWalker taking his sweet time.

Thanks again, ~enom~

[G1 Android Development] hjlow:

[G1 Android Development] bowlofturtle:
i'm having trouble with this...

i'm using a tmobile mytouch. rooted with ra v1.2.3

when i get the tmo exp pack 2.0.3 and attempt to update it says an error in the boot screen. line 13 or something of that matter. I can run the non expansion pack fine.

I downloaded the AOSP exp pack, it loads great but it never boots. It goes thru the green mytouch and then the andriod screen next and stays there. I gave it 10 minutes.

Right now i'm just using the TMO non-exp pack since its the only one that works for me.

Anyone have thoughts to why this is happening? I wipe first and then install. I've done both methods three times resulting in the same.
[G1 Android Development] bmj1086:
Sounds to me like you're flashing an expansion pack without a base.

You need to Flash the Tmobile BASE first

Follow the directions in the second link in my signature
[G1 Android Development] qwerty3656:
If you are new to android - some pretty basic stuff, but in case you didn't know, to connect your phone to your laptop you don't need ADB. When you plug your phone into USB your phone says USB connected - then slide down your status bar on the phone and select "mount" and your can access your phone like a hard-drive.

ADB is really useful, though. The trick with ADB is to NOT select mount from your phone and then run adb commands from the command prompt on your computer.
[G1 Android Development] bmj1086:
You can run adb if your card is mounted or not. You just will not be able to access /sdcard when its mounted.

I think I messed this one up badly. I did notice that it was supposed to be diet soda. I put my phone in regualr soda for 11 minutes, and now it will not turn on. What should I tell tmobile when I call for a warranty replacement.
[G1 Android Development] bkmo:
I did not try the diet soda hack, but did pull the battery during recovery flash. Now the phone won't turn on. I cannot call anybody right now for a warranty replacement. Please advise.

Edit: Sorry enomther, I will now move this topic to questions and answers. :)

Edit 2: Fixed....I put the battery back in...stupid me huh? Now I have the rainbow Yippie!
[G1 Android Development] bmj1086:
Tell them you thought it was an iPhone :p
[G1 Android Development] bkmo:
Hmmmm, might I suggest option 1 with a minumum of 245, and a max of 528, and then enable compcache number 3, and then number 9 enable cpu scaling, and last but not least you can try 12 PID prioritization. I like all the addons, (phone,mms,browser) but do not use the 10meg hack if you are going to install any 3d games.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
My Lord you guys ... lol ... I step away for a few hours or so ... and it's comedy central over here ! lol

I really hope no1 got thrown off in this mess ... lol

[G1 Android Development] L0rdDash:
Still loving these roms but iv started to notice some real lag on incoming calls with the last 2 updates. before i was getting the normal 3 or so sec lag with incoming calls now im getting more like 10 to 15 secs, once it made it to voicemail before i could see who was calling. Any idea why this might be?

Iv tried reboot, wipe + reflash, turning off widgets, and killing unneeded apps in background.

Im running TMO US 2.0.3 with gChromev2

Also how would i go about removing unwanted widgets (the switches) while keeping the flip clock?
[G1 Android Development] bkmo:
Hey....You started it.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
I know ... me and my poor leadership skills ... :rolleyes: ... lol

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
L0rdDash,

And all experiencing the incoming call issues ... trying to narrow it down (am having trouble reproducing it on my side) ... please do try turning off compcache (and reboot) and see if that helps the issue, please report back.

I believe the newer compcache settings maybe be the issue.

Let me know.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] bmj1086:
Lol, we got off hand. Oh well =p We're done now :D
[G1 Android Development] bmj1086:
As far as I know we're all getting this. I'm working on a logcat now [forgot earlier, sorry =p ]

I'll send it to enom and we'll figure something out asap. I believe its PID prioritizing? Maybe?
[G1 Android Development] bmj1086:
Gotta love how when I try to run a logcat on it, it doesn't do it........

Lol. I'll get it as soon as it does it again. I'll keep trying.
[G1 Android Development] bkmo:
This line bothers me in expprid: busybox renice -2 `pidof app_process`

For me it seems to set other processes to a -2 nice value.

Look at the results of printPriority phone

# busybox renice -2 `pidof app_process`
# sh /system/sd/pp phone
PATH=com.android.phone [B]NAME=(app_process)[/B] PID=1641 PRI=1 [B]NICE=-2[/B]
PATH=com.motorola.android.motophoneportal.androidui [B]NAME=(app_process)[/B] PID=1810 PRI=1 NICE=-2

Your results may vary, and Cyanogen insists that the prioritizations scripts are not a good thing.

Hello,

This is a little off the topic at hand (of the last few posts), but I was wondering if anyone or the man, Enomther himself, could port over [Theme] Rebuild of the Buuf theme? It would be awesome and greatly appreciated. It seems everyone is still making themes for Cyanogen. Thanks!

-Mo
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Yea ... I've got (3) users out of the thread (via e-mail) testing compcache now ... and also ... pid prioritization would definitely be the next thing to look at. However, the interesting part about that is ... I've been running that since donut released v1.8.4.x series ... and all "appeared" well till 2.0.[2-3] (from what I can tell) ... which is where the compcache settings were changed.

Now that's not to say the newer compcache settings couldn't be interacting negatively with the PID prioritizations.

Ive had 2 kernel crashes today. The phone locked up(numerous force closes, unable to select wait or close) and then It loaded the Android loading screen. Not sure if my phone is bad or if its an actual bug. Wish we could have a method of

I also have had major issues with all the music apps randomly playing music...today Meridian, TuneWiki, and stock android music player all opened up and were playing a different song. Quite an earful, no pun intended.

I am getting a phone replacement from T-mobile, and hopefully that will eliminate whether this is a hardware or software issue.

Enom,

the plastic theme for AOSP works on my MT3G. It's weird, I'm going to give it another try on my cousin's phone tomorrow.
[G1 Android Development] Technochris1:
Just an FYI

Just letting everyone know that the Google maps apk from this thread works with this rom. Its pretty nice.:cool::cool::cool:
[G1 Android Development] bmj1086:
<3

Thank you!
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
It is, indeed. Works great on TMO too, thanks!

Enom, maybe you could add it to the exppack or as a downloadable (after it's released of course, no need for a C&D!)

EDIT: I should mention that on TMO, it's /system/app/GoogleMaps.apk, not just Maps.apk.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Yea man ... let me know. Sounds like a horrible experience.

[G1 Android Development] Technochris1:
And another thing.

This is for the Awesome dev's whom brought us these roms ( Particularly AOSP1.6_r1.2). Can we get a Lockscreen...:rolleyes:...I NEED A LIL Stericson on my phone.....But on a serious note, Good work guys. Keep it up!
[G1 Android Development] mikespy:
I switched to the T-mobile build for the Plastic theme and my battery is WAY WAY better that on the ADP build for some reason. My battery usually lasted around 2 days. (i don't use it excessively) Now it seems to get me an extra day....... don't know if it's the theme or build but this kiks a$$!!!
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Yea I dunno man ... I did test this ... was all successful for me on G1 HW.

Let me know how it goes.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Stericson has provided me with the necessary components to incorporate his lock screen successfully. Just gotta get over a hurdles (w/ other unrelated stuff) ... but if all goes well ... we should see this in a future build.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
Naturally, it will be optional (wink, wink, nudge, nudge) even with themes?
[G1 Android Development] cloverdale:
Here is a weird issue I have had twice today. If while browsing, I receive a call (and pick up), when I end the call, I no longer have touch screen capabilities with the browser (ts works with everything else though, even the bookmark menu). I had a logcat, but my battery ran out while I was posting, and all is lost. What I could tell though, is that it seems the screen (which stops your ear from "pressing" buttons) stays activated after the call is ended. I will be sure to post if it happens again.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
If successful ... it will be "included" in themes ... outside of that ... yes optional ... also (as with some other features)... it will only apply to the AOSP ... not TMO.
