[G1 Android Development] ArmandHammer:
I love the ROM but since I updated to the new build, on youtube all I get is sound and the picture is stuck.. am I alone?
[G1 Android Development] Droid8Apple:
you mean move as in the cache-mover i got from the market LOL? i have but not until i did the apps2sd move. so i guess the moral of the story would be the nandroids i need from JF's ROM were never taken while using a cache-mover or apps2sd. just 1.43jf recov and 1.51us ROM

I am experiencing the same problem. Are you using compcache?
[G1 Android Development] ArmandHammer:
Nope, no compcache just the rom.
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
It's "hit and miss" for me. I tried three different videos on Youtube, heard sound in all three, but only saw video in one of them and it was very choppy.

Before i moved to 3.6.8 i was able to watch my videso in youtube without any problem, but since i changed to 3.6.8, i had the same issue that the others, BTW im not unsing compache compress, but im using a swap partition, i realized that i can see the videos that i recorded in my g1 in version 3.6.8 but i cant see the videos that i downloaded from youtube. i hope you could fix this problem soon.

Well im new to the forums and as a newb gotten this far, But I cannot seem to get bluetooth headsets to work as of yet with this rom. I have scoured the threads and tried just about every thing, Am i missing something or have i just over looked the solution? i have tried several different headsets. Realy love this first rom, Don't want to flash to hero. Any help is greatly (GREATLY) appreciated. Thanks in advance. Nate:eek:

Anyone noticed their battery life draining faster than normal?
[G1 Android Development] njuncos:
that was never a problem for me...everyone needs to realize that sometimes the market is glitchy and it takes 10-30 min for ur download to start. i've just learned to live with this, but mostly, the market has always worked for me...
[G1 Android Development] njuncos:
no problem here, did u wipe?
[G1 Android Development] nxt:
Best way to "fix" this is you're probably connected via WIFI at home right?

Is to turn it off, then turn it back on and go directly to the Market, and start a download, it will then start working.
[G1 Android Development] nate38654:
Right!

Yea Battery life drains like crazy on this rom! Not sure whats going on. Leak or something! Thought it was false readings as first!
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
Yeah, it's not an issue with the ROM, it's Market.

When this happens to me, I Cancel the download, restart the download, and 99.9% of the time the download/installation completes within a few seconds.
[G1 Android Development] xhoangx:
I am having a problem with "adb install" command with CM 3.6.8. I get a "/system/bin/sh: pm: not found" error. I'm guessing this has something to do with ash replacing terminal? I have no problems with other adb commands I've tried (push and shell). Also, I'm using the latest SDK tools. Can someone else test this and confirm?
[G1 Android Development] G1-evolve:
Doesn't happen like that for me anymore.. Only downloads when I log into "gtalk"
[G1 Android Development] devsk:
Nandroid backup doesn't include or restore apps2sd data stored on the card. Why is that? I restored a nandroid backup on a clean set of partitions and apps were present in the app menu but when I clicked on them, I got "Application not installed."
[G1 Android Development] njuncos:
nandroid was built w/o apps2sd in mind, considering nandroid was probably before even app2sd became popular...however, this would be a nice "new" feature of nandroid.

anybody see any problems with this idea? i guess it is up to the nandroid folks
[G1 Android Development] devsk:
One bug found: If I disabled USB debugging, I can't root anymore. SU just becomes unresponsive and never returns.

One question: how do I enable linux-swap in this ROM? I thought if I had the 3rd partition as 82 (linux-swap) and did a mkswap on it, it would be automatically used for swap. Something is up because my swappiness is 60 as well.
[G1 Android Development] lazaro17:
youtube videos are working fine for me

i came from 3.6.5 straight to 3.6.8 with no wipe
[G1 Android Development] The Spirit:
i just installed 3.6.8 (came from 3.6.7.2 wihtout a wipe) i now, the overclock widget doesn´t work anymore correctly for me.

i can´set the cpu betweeen 128 and 384. if i do so, it still set´s itself again to 528.

so battery drains faster.

anyone else encountered this issue on 3.6.8?

for me, this worked just fine under 3.6.7.2
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
I should have the known issues with 3.6.8 worked out by tomorrow. The camcorder problem is a bit painful.
[G1 Android Development] TEXASMADE1978:
Just flashed back to 3.6.5 with wipe and w/o wipe and now when I DL an app from the market , the same app keeps downloading over, over, and over. Wondering if anyone has seen or heard of this problem happening before. I could not find any info anywhere about this type of occurrence. Any help is appreciated.

Never mind- Must have been a glitch in the Market, now it is working fine. Sorry about the clutter.

GREAT WORK CYANOGEN !!!!!!!
[G1 Android Development] jklong03:
Could you include full media folder?

Hey Cyanogen, is there any chance of convincing you to include a full up system/media/audio folder distribution in your next release?

I'm sure that very few of the followers on this site are using old style dial-up connections and even if they are having to download directly to their phone with only Edge coverage, the extra 4 MB or so shouldn't be a killer. It would just be nice to not have to push these following every flash update of the ROM or depending on ring-tones extended.

Yes I realize it only takes a few adb commands to copy them over after flashing, and I know this is a development ROM, not a "T-Mobile full up OTA" quality effort, However, I think I might not be the only one out there who would like to have a full ring/notification tone set upon flashing an update? :confused: And relying on ring-tones extended is something that maybe some of our "newer" converts to ROM flashing may not be familiar with.

Just a thought for the future, since I am sure you have the Camcorder issue already solved! :D
[G1 Android Development] innerspace:
Fully committed, mostly insane...

Well, I fully committed to Cyanogen. Wiped, repartitioned my card and installed 3.4.6, 3.6.5 and then 3.6.8. Activated compcache with the backing_swap line added to userinit.sh and am seeing drastically lower numbers than I saw before at boot:

I can confirm the following elements are working: Wifi, GPS, BT, Accelerometer, Camera, Gallery, Market, SMS, Voice Dial and Search.

The following does not work: Gears, Camcorder.

For the most part logcat looks like things are running smoothly. Off to tinker some more, I await your next patch.
[G1 Android Development] Binary100100:
Gears works fine for me.
[G1 Android Development] Binary100100:
I have 3 different headsets and all three work just fine.

It could be a hardware issue with your phone.

If it worked with a different rom then maybe try wiping and reflashing.

[G1 Android Development] bubblesnout:
Quick question, when I get a new update here, I just install it over the top, I don't wipe first. Is it safe to keep doing this, or is it going to cause problems?
[G1 Android Development] innerspace:
not really...

The battery issue appears to have started with OTA Cupcake and has been popping up intermittently for all kinds of users on all flavors of ROMS since. There's a potential workaround that's been discussed at length here on XDA. I've tried it and it seems to work for me, though never really permanently fixing the issue, it seems to circumvent it for awhile. I've PM'd you with the fix.
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
As my camera always disappears after an update, I ran adb install Camera.apk after the 3.6.8 update.

[G1 Android Development] jklong03:
Since this problem with adb install just started appearing, it must be related to Cyanogen running Ash by default instead of sh :confused:

UPDATE

Well, tried playing with links between ash <-> to fix the adb install issue and got myself stuck in a G1 bootloop! Just finished reflashing 3.6.8 Just goes to show me I don't know linux nearly well enough to be playing with things at that level!
[G1 Android Development] meoshe:
You should be fine by not wiping, most of everyone using this rom don't including myself.

Is there a reason that you are sharing this information via PM, instead of just posting it so that 'anyone' can read and "search" for it?
[G1 Android Development] prettyboy85712:
This thread is for Cyanogen's ROM and doesn't need to become anymore cluttered than it already has. :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] firetech:
That seems to be true. However, I seem to have fixed it by adding "#!/system/bin/sh" on its own line at the beginning of /system/bin/pm (using vi on the phone, don't try it if you don't know what you're doing ;)). At least pm starts in a shell on the phone now (and the phone still boots properly), but I'm at work without my USB cable, so I can't check if adb works.

If I'm correct, the problem is simply that the original shell doesn't need hashbang ("#!") lines in scripts telling the shell what interpreter to use, while ash still does. Seems like cyanogen has to go through all scripts on the phone and check their interpreter. ;)
[G1 Android Development] DocStrange33:
Flashed latested update last night no wipe didn't think it would be a problem cause I never had to with cyan's rom. Now my phone won't boot with my sdcard mounted so I reverted back 3.6.7.2 still gets stuck at boot tmobile g1 logo anyone else has this problem?
[G1 Android Development] farmatito:
To fix this problem you can do:

adb remount

adb shell

in the shell type:

cd /system/bin (enter)

for i in am ime input monkey pm svc (enter)

do (enter)

echo "#!/system/bin/sh" > $i.tmp (enter)

cat $i >> $i.tmp (enter)

mv $i.tmp $i (enter)

chmod 755 $i (enter)

chown root.shell $i (enter)

done (enter)

This fixed the pm issue for me, use at your own risk or wait for the next update ;-)

PS: (enter) means you have to hit enter

[G1 Android Development] angelogiuffrida:
I can confirm I have the same bug.

I posted that problem about 10 times here (because I turned off USB debugging but didn't realise that was why SU because unresponsive) and I never got an answer from anyone on the forums.

Force closes

Hey G1 users, i was wondering if anyone else had force closes on Mybackup Pro since updating this rom? I can restore but now when i try to backup, it gives me a force close, no option to wait and i have did the fix permissions command twice, uninstalled, re installed, no luck though. I just want a way to save my settings and home screen icons/layout so when i wipe i can quickly put it all back with no problem.

If anyone has info on this then please let me know or if you know another app or method to get my settings back after a wipe then let me know, im not a NOOB so you can tell me commands or advanced information with no problems.
[G1 Android Development] dashed:
I have had force closes from mybackup pro on every rom I have ever tried. I stopped using it because sometimes I would have wipe just to get rid of the problems it was causing, even after it was uninstalled.

Swapper wont work with 3.6.8 ... :(
[G1 Android Development] dazcox5181:
Theres quite a bit of excitment on the Sapphire forum as this rom seems great for our hardware too :)

One stumbling block is that ATM we seem to be replacing the boot.img in order to get the wifi working, which if i'm right contains the kernel which gives a fair bit of the boost from this rom, as well as the init scripts and ramdisk.

What we're left with is a very fast rom, but not quite as good as it could be.

Could I maybe request a build of wlan.ko for the sapphire platform against the latest kernel? That seems to be the missing link to getting the G1 roms working on the magic.
[G1 Android Development] nickL0V3:
Wondering

has anybody else's accelerometer stopped working since using this ROM? I used the ROM for about a week and then it stopped working, and I would REALLY rather find out its a software problem than hardware

Don't fear, read the First Page of this thread where you downloaded the software and look at the FAQ that Cyanogen has posted there.

If you set up a proper swap partition and userinit.sh, you never have a problem with swap again. Why not do it right?
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
It has NOT not been confirmed that these are coming from compcache!!! Nor will it ever be!!!

When I was using the stock battery I always had a warm battery and less than ideal battery life - even before compcache was introduced.

We have to be careful - just because someone is blaming an issue on a particular system function doesn't make it true.
[G1 Android Development] ttabbal:
Thanks for the script. Here's a version without the "(enter)" for easy cut and paste. :)

Note, you need to remount the /system partition before running this or you will get errors about the filesystem being read-only. I have that command in another script "rw" to make life easier. :)

cd /system/bin
for i in am ime input monkey pm svc
do
echo "#!/system/bin/sh" > $i.tmp
cat $i >> $i.tmp
mv $i.tmp $i
chmod 755 $i
chown root.shell $i
done

I do a lot of phone scripting from a computer connection, so it's a lot faster for me to work this way. Maybe it will help someone else. I saved this as a script on my SD card, though I doubt I'll need it again as Cyano will likely include fixed versions in the next release.

As an aside, I've replaced the default shell with bash and it's working fine. I haven't hit those scripts apparently. Does anyone know when the /system/sd mount is activated? I'd like to put bash in there as it's statically compiled and about 2.5MB. I'd rather let it live on the SD card. :)
