Lad,

I still truly have no idea ... but ... for giggles ... (grabbing for straws here) .. I'm gonna repack the entire v2 DRD20 and resign ... and I'll repost somewhere's ... I'll PM you the link when ready.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] iwamoto:
Still trying to figure if this is a ROM problem or a radio problem, for some reason my GPS won't lock, and when it does (in those rare cases) it won't track.

it has the latest hayk. spl and radio, might be a problem there seeing that it's a EU phone (and used in the EU), any quick suggestions ? settings ?

All,

djengizz's Android 2.0 Theme posted for TheOfficial. See post #7.

And as always ... if you like this work, be sure to let the djengizz know! (I only ported it)

Download GPS Status from the market. That should at least tell you if you can see satellites. Your location shouldn't matter (American troops needed to be able to navigate when the Soviets invaded West Germany, too :))

You're trying to lock with a clear view of the sky? Not inside a building? No covers on the phone (some can interfere with the antenna)? You should also be able to lock faster with a data connection, since the phone should be able to use that to download the ephemeris (rather than waiting for the low-bandwidth transmission from the sats themselves).

Hopefully something among those ideas will help.

v2.2.1-2 gchrome themes posted/released

All,

v2.2.1-2 gchrome themes posted/released ... this is too fix the FC in VoiceSearch.

So redownload and reapply ... make sure you have the version that ends with -2.zip .

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] JonInAtl:
Thanks for the port! Another perfect update.
[G1 Android Development] lotherius:
*sigh* all I seem to get on this last update is force closes from advanced launcher (still haven't been able to get to my PC to do the re-flash that is required to remove this garbage) and everything is CRAWLING. Prior to this TheOfficial was quick and snappy, now it is slow and laggy... How can anyone actually use this "advanced" launcher on a G1, I've tried it on many ROMs and it is nothing but junk IMHO, making the phone non-responsive, sometimes 30 seconds plus just to wake it up. Sometimes it takes so long to activate that it finally force closes. I think that having it turned on in expsetup only is a good option, but there should be a huge all-caps warning that enabling it will kill the phone's performance.

If there's a "trick" to making Advanced launcher fast, could someone share so the rest of us could know this secret?
[G1 Android Development] JackD3ath:
I havent had any problems with the advanced launcher. I have been using it on AOSP and Cyan's ROM for a while. It seems you are the only one with a problem with it, perhaps your settings create a conflict with it.

Great work on the ROM and theme ports. Thanks again.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
No tricks ... no nothing special ... in fact ... what you are describing all around sounds abnormal.

I would suspect that another underlying issue exists ... OR ... perhaps a specific widget is not playing nice. If you're really experiencing such grief with it ... I'd encourage you to send me a log.

Rest assured of one thing anyways ... if it were as horrible as you describe ... I would not include it at all. I personally (and others I know) have great experiences with the advanced launcher, thus it's inclusion.

If you're up to grabbing me a log of your experience (option 8 in expsetup) ... send to enomther at gmail dot com ... I'll be happy to take a look.

[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Thanks guys for the appreciative feedback and kind words ... I don't say thanks enough these days (like I did in days past)

i dont know wat happen but i have not google maps :( but everything else runs fine can some1 help n ive tried to look for it in the market its not there
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
$ su
# busybox rm -rf /data/.epdata/
# busybox rm -rf /data/expstick/ep.version
# exit
$ exit

Then reboot. This will force the expansion pack to reinstall its apps.

enom--since this has rolled down into the full changelog, perhaps it should go in the FAQ?
[G1 Android Development] josh_k91:
where do i put that

Good call ... I need squeeze some room out first ... I'm pushing the damn 10k limit of chars again.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] prscott1:
Thanks!

Hey enom- thanks for all the new goodies!

I noticed after I applied the 2.2.1 to the aosp that my user.conf was no longer being "read" and I seem to have lost my "swap" - doing free shows 0 swap even though the expsetup shows it is enabled. Should I wipe and start over? :confused:

Thanks again - love the navigation and facebook!! :)
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
2 things here ...

1) If you use a user.conf .. it disables most features from being enable/disabled by expsetup. This would actually lead me to believe your user.conf is being read at some level.

2) I would "not" recommend wiping. This does not sound like an issue that would be resolve in such a fashion

Tell ya what ... what build are you running specifically ? TMO, ADP, or AOSP? ... I'll run some tests to confirm the setup (as I don't actually use the user.conf stuff ... I do everything in expsetup) ... if testing pans out good .. I'll have you send me a log.

Let me know.

EDIT: I SHOULD ACTUALLY READ THE ENTIRE POST! lol ... you're using AOSP. I'll run some tests and post back.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] bfreexxx:
tmo my account app

wiped and re-flashed... downloaded and installed "my account" before installing theme or expsetup. thanks
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
This sounds like a good candidate app for vsapp's. Since the new expansion pack makes it invisible in the market (to gain the NAV functionality)

lock screen issue in android 2.0 theme

this is the greatest ROM- AOSP.

one question: is anyone having an issue with the lockscreen in the new android 2.0 theme not working. specifically, the buttons do not active the battery or sound.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
dbertoli,

The lockscreen graphics actually kinda "fake out" the true functionality of the lockscreen. The "real buttons" are those four little dots at the bottom. The author of the theme didn't alter the actual code of Stericson's lockscreen, but applied the "official" graphics from 2.0's lockscreen. Thus the buttons don't line up per se.

Not really an issue ... but slightly annoying ... I know. :rolleyes:

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] Joe333x:
Any way you could make the lock screen an option in expsetup instead of by default ?
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
It's being looked into ... but to bring it to market quickly ... it was a (rare) occasion where the feature was forced. But I am looking into it.

Until I dev it up though ... it's not optional yet.

:/

[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
enomdater

so anyone wanting to try this out (i have verified this works on the US build) the updater software is on the market (all donations go to enomther for his hard work)
[G1 Android Development] Joe333x:
ok so this is the second day that i have had no luck getting this rom to boot with my ext partition. It boots without issue with a clear ext but for some reason when ever I try to boot it with either a full ext restore from bart or switch rom type restore it will boot to the android screen and stay there for a while then switch to a black screen. i tried wiping the dalvik cache but still the same thing. its not completely frozen though because viewing the logcat via adb shows D/dalvikvm going through my apps saying that they have mismatched id although before boot i used ra recovery to fix mismatched uids. I have had no trouble barting back and forth between cyan and your rom untill this latest update, theres something conflicting between the two. The only thing i could think of is that the lastest cyan is using the dalvik cache from eclair but i cleared the cache and it didnt help so im stuck here. I guess i will just boot the rom and have to reinstall my apps to get it running again. Any thoughts ? Heres the log

[G1 Android Development] jordanjay29:
No offense, but $1.99? Call me cheap, but I'd buy it if it were $.99. But more than that isn't really worth it, it doesn't take much effort to keep up with this thread, download manually and flash; for free.

Don't get me wrong, I like to support developers, though. Just...it seems silly to charge that much for an updater.
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
enomdater

glad to have the input .. definitely worthwhile to make that change .. easily changed .. one thing to note (since i once posted $0.99) is the per transaction charge for having it on the market .. not that much actually makes it to the dev responsible for the ROM .. i'd love to see how others feel
[G1 Android Development] dbertoli:
its worth it

for this ROM(s) and Enom's hard work and professionalism 1.99 is cheap. enom responds to important and silly questions and is very serious about his work and helping.
[G1 Android Development] jamerican413:
I downloaded the enomdater. I like it! It's worth the money for the convenience, especially if you don't / can't keep up with the thread.
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
From Post 1 FAQ:

You shouldn't expect it to boot with things on the ext partition. ROMs use the partition differently and incompatibly. Sometimes you get lucky, but if it works, it's unplanned behavior and there's no guarantee of stability.
[G1 Android Development] BloodyWasHere:
C'mon man, think about it, 2 bucks isnt much, dont look at it as buying the updater, i mean, im prob not even gonna use it, id rather do it manually.. but im getting it anyway to support enom for his work, he actually takes time off to do stuff like this for us, he doesnt need to post his work, nor does he need the headache of answering everyone else's questions, but does it anyway.. if its too expensive for you man, keep it to yourself, but dont discourage everyone else from getting it..
[G1 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
My thoughts exactly. Also bought it. Might not even use it as you say. But maybe it comes in handy and it's a small way to show some respect I think ;)
[G1 Android Development] cyberrobin:
I would love to buy it.. But I don't have a credit card.. :(
[G1 Android Development] javacody:
I bought it but it doesn't work. It says:

"Your system is running and (notice the spelling error here, should be an... :) ) unsupported OS mod (Version TheOfficial-ADP-DRC83_v2.2.1). Please manually upgrade to TheOfficial v2.2.1 or later and try again."
[G1 Android Development] javacody:
Enom, no stericson lockscreen on my phone? Is this only for AOSP? I'm using ADP, 2.2.1, and 2.0 theme.

EDIT: Sorry, brainfart, I remember now that stericson's lockscreen is only for AOSP. Duh. Sorry. :)
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
ADP

i'll check on that one .. it's probably not registering the ADP version .. thanks for the feedback

I found the radio fuses pulled and reinstalled, paired android again, still same problem.
[G1 Android Development] iwamoto:
It's so weird, when i deactivate using a celltower signal, i can leave it on for minutes and it wont lock on or anything. even redid the radio image today

What i'll try is to do a clean Base image, see if it has something to do with the expansion.

btw, i use the latest hayk. radio image right, is there a way to apprehend the most recent official radio image ?
[G1 Android Development] oncidium:
Keep getting force close for the com.voxmobili.phonebook (Phonebook in market) with this ROM...hasn't opened once. Have the expansion pack installed and Handcent SMS, nothing else yet.
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
Lucid, you are hardcore, amigo. I bought your "Lucid REM" program a long time ago, I still don't understand everything it does :D but I use the parts I do understand ;)

I bought the Enom Updater and the program is telling me there's a new update..."TMO-US-DRC83_v2.2.1" - and it's the only update appearing in the dropdown menu...unfortunately, I'm running "TheOfficial-AOSP-DRD20_v2.2.1".

I know a few posts back your said you were working on another issue, but I thought I'd bring this one to your attention as well.

Enom and Lucid, keep up the great work!
[G1 Android Development] Vlad83:
Something got screwed up. I was having issues with sounds for a long time, randomly my notification sounds such as messaging, alarms, ringtones, etc would be replaced by the generic sound and would require a restart to function correctly. I moved all the ringtones to /system but that didn't help. Now, I am getting no rings at all and I am unable to select any ringtone off my sd card. When I point to /music in the sdcard using rings extended I get nothing, no available selections...

Also, how do I get rid of xenio's contacts? I remove it in the profile, reflash exp, and that damn thing is still there... I am about to just manually pull/push the damn thing...
[G1 Android Development] Shady Gambino:
You are a true G. :)
[G1 Android Development] Joe333x:
so theres no way to boot this with out having to reinstall all my apps ? why shouldnt i expect it to boot with apps on my sd ? cyan booted fine when i switched from aosp and aosp boot fine when coming from cyan until the lastest update. that was the whole concept behind switchrom and bart so that you can boot different roms and not loose your apps. im going to play around with it some more.
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
enomdater

for anyone checking out the enomdater app .. i adjusted the coding .. it should register the ADP/AOSP versions .. let me know if it's all set
[G1 Android Development] f00dstamps:
Cytown Phone mod

Is there a way to adjust the caller ID photo size? I have the mod but I am interested in a bigger photo size.
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
If I understand Switchrom and BART correctly, they back up the ext partition associated with a ROM. If you didn't need to do that, those programs would have nothing to do. You'd be able to backup entirely with a nandroid. By backing up the ext partition, you can clear it to safely install another ROM, then restore it when switching back.

This comes from the same requirement that drives the need to wipe between different ROMs. The purpose of that is to clear /data. When using A2SD, or moving dalvik-cache, etc., you've moved part of /data to /system/sd (IIRC), so those need to be cleared too. The only sure way to do this is either reformat ext or `rm -rf /system/sd/*'. The first is more foolproof and easier for most people.

If you search the thread, you'll find plenty of people having this problem. If you look at soulife's new ROM, you'll find someone who had that problem with that ROM (which I ended up answering via PM). So yes, you were lucky it worked. There are other programs (Backup for Root Users comes to mind) that do what you want, but they're not 100% reliable either. I take a manual approach where I pull all of /data/app, /data/app-private, and /data/data, then batch reinstall the .apk files and selectively copy /data/data/packagename folder contents for certain apps where I care, but again with the caveat it might not work as expected.
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
Seems to be working.

I went into Configuration and changed the "System Mod Version" to "All the Updates" and it is now telling me that it can't find any updates, which should be true since I'm running the latest AOSP.

Great job, Lucid.
[G1 Android Development] iwamoto:
Okay, small update,

Tried to run with the base image, assistance off, GPS found my spot on in around 5-10 seconds, this is on the old google maps app. so my guess is, that it's the new google maps app. in the expansion that's causing all the trouble.

so far i've only installed the expansion pack by applying the zip from recovery, can i also apply the expansion from the terminal so i can choose what i want or do i need to apply the zip first (never bothered to hassle with it)

Or, option c, could Enomther (i hope he's reading this) cook me up an expansion with the regular 1.6 maps app. ?
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
Original /system/app

have you tried:

# lucid -app Maps

that might work for you
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
To add a little to what olearyp has cited ... the problem could also be caused by the fact that you are mixing my ROM and cyanogen's. Since 4.2.5, cyanogen has started using the eclair dalvik-cache. This in theory could cause serious issues when attempt to boot a ROM using the donut dalvik-cache (like mine) when possessing a dalvik-cache previously altered/controlled by an eclair dalvik-cache.This, among other things, could cause the black screen boot issue.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] iwamoto:
Before or after i use the expansion ?
[G1 Android Development] enomther:

Awesome! An updater app :) ... I must say however ... that someone already asked what the app did ... citing that the name implied that if they bought it ... perhaps they would "win" a date w/me LOL ... enom-dater!!!

Lucid Script

after .. i built this into my script .. such things like:

# lucid -app AlarmClock

# lucid -app Browser

# lucid -app Gmail

# lucid -app Maps

# lucid -app Mms

# lucid -app Phone

# lucid -app Street

# lucid -app Vending

it will restore the /system/app specifically referenced to the original released with the latest ROM pack (ie. v1.6) .. these are the OTA /system/app files
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
enomdater

well .. i DID contemplate having a lottery with those donating to win the "prize" - LOL - i figured it was either "enomdater" or something cheesey
[G1 Android Development] iwamoto:
when entering the command it prints: "lucid -app Maps : uid=0(root)"

but the app stays the new one.
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
Lucid Script

you need "su" first .. when it prompts the "uid" string you can re-enter the command .. notice the "$" has been changed into "#"
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
Lucid,

Are you saying we have your Lucid REM script and run the above commands...it'll restore the original programs such as the original browser, original mms, etc.?
[G1 Android Development] Joe333x:
Yeah thats the basic concept, that bart will back up your ext along with a nandroid but it also offer the option to back up ext only so you can apply it to another rom

Yeah i had posted that in my original post that i thought it could be because he is using eclair dalvik. Knowing that, i cleared the dalvik cache before boot. Regardless, thank you and Oleary for your responses. I will let you know if i figure out a way to boot with apps already on the sd. I am able to boot the previous version of aosp with the previous expansion pack with the ext from cyan with out an issue but then when I apply the updated aosp and expansion pack the phone will boot but acore will just keep force closing over and over.

@enomther

Is anyone working on an Android 2.0 theme? That would be pretty nice. I tried looking for android 2.0 themes and I found one that was compatible with cyanogen. I didn't want to experiment with putting that on my phone. Thanks and keep up the good work.

[G1 Android Development] lotherius:
Re-flashed and didn't install advanced launcher and all is hunky-dorey. I know people say they don't have problems with lag in Advanced Launcher, but maybe I am just a bit less tolerant of lags than some. Don't care to troubleshoot it as I have to use my phone and work most of the day with phones :)... I like to play, but ultimately I just want my phone to work when I pull it out and not have to wait to do anything.

One of the things I don't like about so many themes is that they assume you want all the toys. I just want a theme - I will install toys if I want them. Stericson lock screen, advanced launcher, etc, I don't *use* any of it, it just adds bloat. This is why I usually run un-themed.

Oh and back to the point of this post. It runs great once I pulled off the advanced launcher by reflashing. Thanks for the tip, enomther, and for continuing to work so diligently to make sure only stable software is enabled by default :)
[G1 Android Development] Vlad83:
That's why Enom created theme profiles with option 16 in expmenu. You set that apps you want to use and anytime you theme or untheme you will have only the apps you set up. Unless something goes haywire then you have to do a couple of codes. Couldn't get rid of xenio's contact app for the life me...
[G1 Android Development] mvanwyk83:
I just used expsetup in the terminal to get rid off advanced launcher, it wasn't that bad but it was a lil laggy when I go to the dialer on the phone. But all in all, this is the best rom I've ever used and the 2.0 theme is sweet. Thanx Enom!!
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
Lucid Script

yep .. i do not have ALL the /system/app files listed in the script yet .. but that is what it does .. some people have tested variants of these things (ie. a new Mms.apk) and this was created as an easy way to restore single files

the newest script is v1.60.30 .. so use the "-u" option if you have an earlier one
[G1 Android Development] dez48:
I had to reflash both base and exp pack to get rid of xenio's contacts. Flashing just the exp pack didn't solve it.

[G1 Android Development] Tastengott:
Any chance to get white Date/Time/Notifications text in statusbar in the TMO-1.6-EU ROM with the htc-hero theme?:confused:
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
My bad ... previous statements about re-applying the expansion pack after redo'ing your theme profile were inaccurate.

The proper steps would be ... redo the theme/add-on profile in expsetup and then re-apply your theme OR the correct theme template from the OP if you wish to remain un-themed.

[G1 Android Development] enomther:
You do not setup the lockscreen ... it's included, but only with the AOSP version of the ROM.

i am getting a lot of fc on the acore process using advanced launcher. It seems that when I rotate the phone on the home screen to landscape it fc acore and then when I roate back to port it fc acore again. also, if im using an app in land and I hit the home button it will fc acore.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Tastengott,

Sorry ... but ... not anytime soon. Unfortunately in order to gain the statusbar look with white text in the TMO builds, it would first require de-odex'ing the entire build.

This is probably the biggest drawback to the TMO builds, is that lack of theme-ability.

If you really want the nicer look I would encourage you to try either the AOSP/ADP or the pure ADP. Both have this theme-ing capability. The HERO theme on the EU ROM is a best-effort style theme, with the statusbar bearing the brunt of the theme tradeoff's.
