This is getting bad, where Gmail will stop responding and ask if it should force close, same with home (acore). It making the phone almost unusable, or it will be when I get angry at it and chuck it at a wall :P
[G1 Android Development] All~G1:
I've seen replies like this before when Dev's started giving up or started getting frustrated with the repetitive postings.

PLEASE LETS ALL HELP CYANOGEN AND READ THE FAQ'S

Not that Im anyone of importance, but if you need to take a rest, please by all means DO IT! I'm happy with the lastest release.
[G1 Android Development] Paging Dr B:
excellent rom cyan! keep up the good work!
[G1 Android Development] ScottGood:
I'm Noticing a trend, those who ask questions that are already answered tend to be Junior Members. Not all of them though, just most. I did see a few Members and Senior Members doing this but no where near the number of Jr members.

I'm believing that most of the issues with Cyans threads are because they are so popular, and that as he changes versions he keeps the thread going.

I would like to petition that our fellow member and Mod Mikey kindly remove all posts after each new version release by cyan that don't help a bug or move us to a new thread and close the last to help tidy up a bit.

I understand if this is is not a correct answer to the issue, but I believe it is at this moment
[G1 Android Development] Saiboogu:
Problematic.. Removing posts that aren't relevant to the next release would require lots of attention from someone who knows the issues and fixes in the update.. Basically Cyanogen, but with the time to actually do it.

And trashing the thread and starting fresh.. You either abandon all the useful information, or you need someone to summarize the useful information again - same problem as above.
[G1 Android Development] Mikey:
you mean if i clean this thread with just alone the thank yous and Great rom posts, it will kill this thread by maybe 15 pages or the how do you flash this rom, or how about................FLASHING NOW.

Im getting to the point, where i might ask Cyan, if it ok with him to lock the thread every time he updates lol

Or i might just give him a 3rd post for him to vent in lol
[G1 Android Development] Mikey:
OFF TOPIC:

[Rant]

Time for me too vent:::

You guys realize this thread was created 7days ago???

Do the math:237+ posting in a day. 23.7 pages of postings!!!

What can possibly be mentioned in that time period???

I started banning people for posting in your sub-forums.

Will banning people for asking a question that is basic or even in post 1 or 2, do the tricck for people to learn.

Thanks and downloading nows are not required to be posted.

Then Senior members expect Jr. members to search????

Why!!! i wouldn't. they have to filter thru how many pages of nothing developmental to get a answer or even be told how/what to do.

[/Rant]

I'm all good now :)
[G1 Android Development] ScottGood:
how about cleaning out just the posts that are like

" Great Rom love you work can't wait for whats to come"

along with posts discussing topics that are off topic like cleaning threads :rolleyes: and othe idle chit chat of the like, and if any Mod wants to delete this post and my last plus your rebuttal please do so for that sake of this major mistake.

I GREATLY APOLOGIZE for this My stupidity

I think people need to be

r e m i n d e d

[on the FIRST page of every single thread that can easily reach 5,000 posts in a matter of few weeks], that these types of threads should remain for the sole purpuse of updates/questioning+answering only rather than WHATEVERYOUWANTTOPOST *burp*.

It'll help EVERYONE greatly in the long run, and we won't have to dedicate people to "clean up posts" because their time is as precious as ours.

I think we could just create another thread that contains all the THANK YOUS, Getting to download and FLASHING now and posts of that sort of nature which cyanogen can still check up from time to time to remind him that we really do appreciate all his work, yet keep his hard work compact, destinct and to the point in another like this one here. Actually, let me rephrase, we should allow each Developer a thank you thread (which they could for example link to from their signature), keep that all seperate in a THANK YOU FORUM, and go from there.

It's definitely up to the moderators + xda now whether they like to implement this, but imho it would be the best for us all to keep those type of posts seperate from the more "technical" ones as many have noticed thankfully. I also do not want to come home, reading 15 pages of posts just to see how many people have gotten his ROM to work\, and thanking him for all his hard work.
[G1 Android Development] Janis:
Thank you's

No, no "thank you" thread. True gratitude means offering something back. Donating, even a euro, dollar, pound, shekel or two if that's wht you can honestly afford is enough to express appreciation.

(BTW, I have never asked for or received a donation online, nor anywhere in the last 20 years, so it's not my own benefit for which I post.)

Also, my video camera worked on 3.6.7, as did everything else. Installing a GPS toggle widget messed up Google Maps tracking my location, and after a few days I noticed it slowing down, but other than that, nice.

Never enabled compcache, though.
[G1 Android Development] IamLugo:
This has happened to me on occasion. Still does every once in a while usually on boot. The method I've been using is terminating the "Home" process in Advanced Task Manager. This did the trick, home reloads with all the widgets/icons as normal. But if your method eliminates the problem all together I will definately give it a shot.

Normally I would have used adb but since I tend to switch between roms quite often it is just more convenient for me to have it all packaged & available in an update.zip when needed. Keep bugging Cya lol jk

This was the method I used for a while like most others do but I realized, at least in my case, it was the cause of the phone ringing way too late(or not at all) while the phone vibrated and showed an incoming call. And so was the case with notification sounds. There was just way to much lag in when the audio files were called when they were on my fat32. Anyway all is good now with sounds loaded in the internal memory.

Peace & Love :-)
[G1 Android Development] wickednix:
Would it be possible for the mods to enable the post permission on cyan's threads? You know the one where Admin or mods have to approve the post or is that much work for the mods? (not being a smart ass, just asking) I don't post much as I use the search button to find my answers. I am getting annoyed by searching thru 200 pages of all the same, how do I do this and why won't my phone get past this. There has to be a way to keep the impatient finger font happy people from asking the same question over and over.

There is my 2 cents..

JF > CM 3.6.8.1 = Stuck at Android screen, 20+ mins

I'm flashing from from JF 1.51 (CRB43) to CM 3.6.8.1 on a retail G1. I'm using cm-recovery-1.3.1 for the Recovery image. I have an 8GB microSD with a FAT32 partition and about 450MB ext2 partition (created in gparted).

At first I used Recovery to do a complete wipe, then applied the CM ROM via the "[Alt-S] apply sdcard:update.zip". After it was installed and I rebooted, I saw the first splash image, then the Android gleaming. For like 20 minutes straight. So I hooked up adb logcat and saw it was doing all kinds of weird things.

I restored my nandroid backup of JF 1.51 and everything was fine, e.g. no hardware problems, it would seem.

So I tried installing CM over the JF ROM -without- wiping, capturing as much of adb logcat as I could. Same for the "/data/anr/trace.txt" it keeps referring to when dumping various programs.

I'd love to get this up and running, but right now, I think something on my phone is not cooperating, versus something's wrong with CM.

For example, when you install CM via update.zip, does it replace the boot, userdata and system partitions -- or just certain ones? Perhaps there's something else I need to "prepare" my phone to accept CM?

Thanks in advance. [EDIT: BTW, that "[Alt-R] restore latest backup" is AWEsome. Worked perfectly -- didn't need fastboot or a PC or anything! Where do I donate? :) [/EDIT]
[G1 Android Development] xhoangx:
Is your ext2 partition empty? Did you do any apps2sd while on JF? If so try formatting your ext2 partition. While your at it, might as well format it to ext3. Try booting up without the sd card on first boot and see if it boots before you format to make sure. I had the same problem when I first moved over to CM from JF with A2SD via LucidREM script a few months back.
[G1 Android Development] oldsk00lz:
Okay, more testing done.

Two solid days. Twice I got 15hours usage before battery got down to 5-10%. Wasn't running swap or compcache. Work mail sync on arrival. Dataviz beta syncing contacts/calendaers.

Also, seems after being up for about 15 hours things would get slow. Sliders, notification/app drawer, browser would take 2-4 times longer to render pages.

Once or twice my wifi was not working, though toggle settings showed it on. I had to disable and enable to get working.

Been real nice cyanogen...thanks.

[G1 Android Development] 4treyu:
Ok, a bitter update here, plus a warning. Yesterday I updated Backup for Root Users from the market, a few hours ago I decide to make a backup: I just put a checkmark on assets.db, browser.db and the system preferences xml file, I press the "backup" button, it took an unusually long time but nevertheless it completed. Thirty seconds later all my widgets and a bunch of my desktop icons started dissapearing. Long story made short: the backup app screwed all my installation and made me lose half my data.

After all that mess, I restored 3 different nandroid backups of 2 different roms (2 Dude + 1 Cyanogen) and none of them made it past the "android" splash screen (endless loop). The only thing I could do was to entirely wipe from cyanogen's recovery and applying his 3.6.8.1 update.zip, that one succeeded but now I have to redo everything :(

I think the important message to take from here guys is:

Don't install or update Backup for Root Users in the Market!!!!!!!!!

I went to read the last comments for that app on cyrket.com and I can tell you it's not pretty.

i have a big probleme

when i download "v3.6.8.1" i have a problem with the contact, and the dialing , or calling, what i can do, plz help me
[G1 Android Development] aceo07:
Did you try rebooting? The first time I tried 3.6.8.1, the dailpad wouldn't activate on touching the tab and only if I hit the Menu button would it come back up during a call. Even if it was up, it would not respond to touching the numbers. It worked before a call but not during. It was fine after rebooting once. (I also wiped prior to even using the new version since I was using ION before.)

(I haven't tried since then the last time it worked. I only really usually need dialpad during a call for voicemail options.)
[G1 Android Development] bbwonder:
Installed and happy, thanks!

For anyone thinking about this ROM, it's definitely worth installing, much faster than stock or JF/JACHeroski roms, has a handful of bundled useful apps (I'm loving 'Work Email') and is a relief after messing around trying to run Hero on hardware that probably cant hack it.

Well done Cyanogen & affiliates, have a beer on me.
[G1 Android Development] Mr.Jigolo:
great rom but.....3.6.8.1 is SLOWWW

so i installed the latest version, 3.6.8.1 and the phone just got super slow. it was a lil slow before. but now it's dragging and almost every app will force close at least once. every click has a 1-4 seconds response delay.

SD secondary:

total space: 425MB

available space: 303MB

Internal Phone Storage:

available space:

59MB (can i bump this up???)

PLEASE HELLLLLLP!!!!
[G1 Android Development] lancealtar:
I am having one hell of an issue this morning. I have 3.6.8.1 installed, and yesterday everything was fine. This morning, I rebooted the phone because some of my folders would not open. After the reboot, I am having a horrible time keeping connected to TMobiles UTMS network. Every time there is a network connection attempt, the phone will disconnect from the data network and then reconnect just a few seconds latter. I've tried rebooting multiple times and still the same problem. Anyone else experiencing this problem?

2in 1 usb adaptor problem

yes....I found the problem though...the screen froze up every time when u use the 2 in 1 usb adaptor. whithout everything runs just fine u can plug your charger or wathever. This is a big issue for me because I neeed to use that htc 2 in 1 adaptor in my car to charge the phone and listen radio or music thru my car stereo at the same time. I need to be able to charge the phone and have an audio jack available at the same time. I also have a 3 in 1 adapter but I havent try if that one work or not yet. waiting for a fix. I'll try the other adaptor later today.

OK, I did run a search and saw similar issues posted, but no solutions, so posting this with a more detailed description:

Noticed an issue with 3.6.8.1 (had it on 3.6.7.x as well), that I'm not sure if it's due to the ROM. Basically, when my Alarm goes off, if the phone is in sleep mode, it will only show the lock screen, not the Snooze/Dismiss menu screen. If I hit Menu button to unlock the screen, it goes to snooze.

I've had to keep the phone awake (after snooze) when the alarm is about to happen in order to hit Dismiss.
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
Wow! That is crazy.

If you were having this issue with past ROMs, then flashing isn't overwriting the issue.

Setup an alarm and have logcat running when the alarm goes off. See if there's anything obvious in it.

Or, you could take the more extreme route...

I hate suggesting it because I hate doing it myself, but you may need to wipe and flash. If that doesn't correct it, then wipe your SD Card as well.

With that said - I decided to wipe my phone and my SD Card before flashing 3.6.8.1 and I am having absolutely ZERO issues...no lag...no delays...I haven't even received a random force close. So, I don't have any plans to flash the experimental 3.9 version anytime soon :)

Well, I talked with Cyanogen via Twitter and found a solution. He asked if I had the latest radio image, which I did. (Baseband version: 62.50S.20.17H_2.22.19.26I) Regardless of having the correct version, I redownloaded and applied the radio from HTC's site. After flashing the image, and rebooting a couple of times, I have not experienced the same problem again. It's strange, but it worked. Thanks Cyanogen, for pointing me in the right direction.

I will get absolutely flamed for this, but I have to ask. I kept reading for the first 10 pages, and I don't think anyone would ask this question.

I want to try this ROM.

I have HERO 2.7.4 ROM now.

I downloaded last update for this, and when I tried to rename it update, it doesn't take it.

If you change a filename extension, the file may become unusable.

After I do rename it to Update, zip file disappears. It's not a zip file anymore.

Can you still flash after this?

I'm sorry for the dumb question.
