I should add though that JAC ROMs OWNZZZZ!!!! I had switched from JF cupcake (couldn't seem to get apps2sd to work all the time) to TheDude and was begrudgingly content with the sluggishness and random freezing -- mainly because I had gotten used to my phone being slow and accepting it as reality. ...until I discovered yours and WOW am I glad you guys teamed up to work on these!

I loved the JACHeroski builds, but the non-working BT and slow home screen reload was a deal-breaker as yet, so I discovered this one and it's OVER NINE THOUSANNNND BETTER!!! I mean so blazing quick that the wiping isn't horrible to have to do, but I admit I'm often reluctant at first to update versions because of the minor annoyance of reconfiguring all the settings for my apps each time -- then I usually do it anyway, lol. At least all the apps installed show up each time without reinstalling! :)

Thanks again for all that you do! I truly wish I actually had the money to donate to your cause, because I would.

[G1 Android Development] chief2842:
Nice Rom but I an't get some paid apps to work in specific Mybackup and google voice any clue to what the problem could be?
[G1 Android Development] alritewhadeva:
for a quick install, back them up, throw them in a folder called "apps" in your sdcard and run this in terminal

su

cd sdcard/apps

busybox install *.apk /data/app

and then just install your private/paid/protected apps from the market.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Both work fine for me.

You have to be invited to Google Voice. Can't just download the APP.
[G1 Android Development] chief2842:
I have a google voice account but it force closes.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
make sure to data wipe in recovery and wipe ext2 or ext3 before flashing.

I use google voice everyday, no problem.
[G1 Android Development] chief2842:
Ok I didnt do the wipe on my ext2 just on the phone itself seems like that might be the fix. Thanks
[G1 Android Development] Markus214:
new version????

So I think I speak for pretty. Much everyone. Else here... cc when's the new

version of. This wonderful rom coming out???? :)
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
2.5 is the new version!!!!! Came out only a couple days ago, but in a day or two I'm releasing another one.
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
CC this is some nice s**t you, JAC and Manup have done, wow I am amazed how well put together this is!

A++ good **** man!

just tested and first impression"Must have ROM if not then Must have Backup ROM"
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Hey thanks man!

Deving has been going slow lately ever since the new Donut drop MT and wifi modules are effed.
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
I havent took a look a donut as much as everyone else "but are you planing to add some donut to this build?"
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Hopefully. Rolling back commits right now, syncing, and about to cook a kernel hopefully with MT working.
[G1 Android Development] Markus214:
Yeah I tried out 2.5 and its very speeedy :) I liked 2.0 a little better. But this was the first time I tried out your ROM and have to say very good job man. Hopefully more people will see this page and download as well. In your new update will you include more of manups widgets suchas in xROM? And hey if I want to install the flip weather clock on your 2.0 rom can I place the .apk in the folder where my others are and use a apps installer and it will be there? Thank you very much again and keep up the great work man. Drizzy if you reading as well just want to say thank you as well your a amazing dev and keep up the great work enjoy your releases as well.
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
Nice new kernel!!

Why dont you add jac kernel it has multitouch!
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Because there are updates that I want. We are both having trouble with build environment after fresh repo sync. I just cooked one and am testing it now sans MT.

Just took a snapshot of my environment so I can revert back, about to patch MT in and see if it works after having rolled back a few commits.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Good news, new kernel is super fast and works great; bad news, no MT :(

rolling back those commits didn't work, I'm literally going to have to pick and choose/guess until I get it right.
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
Wow lots on your plate!
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Is anyone interested in a new build with a few new widgets, new faster kernel, a couple edits, but no MT?

If so I'll up it tonight. Otherwise I'm going to let it be until I fix MT. Your call.
[G1 Android Development] Markus214:
Yeah i'll check it out.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Alright I'm going to up around 11:30 Eastern Time. Gotta get a game of Call of Duty World at War in :)
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
ill test it out man! plus COD is sick as hell! haha
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
Hey C will this one be themed? thanks
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Not fully themed. Launcher is still missing the "Pre" drawer.

I'm waiting for Manup to add some surprises!!!! :)
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
sounds good, i much prefer the stock mytouch theme so im still on the unthemed 2.0
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Hahaha I'll release an unthemed one. Promise. If not tonight then tomorrow morning. :)
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
thats why youre the man!
[G1 Android Development] justanothercrowd:
The boot.img modules wlan.ko etc as well as a2sd scripts in bin from xROM 1.3r3 has working MT CFQ ipv6 etc for anyone needing MT or Compcache 0.6+ for JacMyTouchSki. Me and ski will have our kernels ironed out and eventually both be using the same one on both ROMS with all the goodies :)
[G1 Android Development] ultimind:
theme suggestion

From an aesthetic point of view.... Might be better to have the time displayed in white instead of black in the upper right corner.

Love the ROM so far. Initial setup was extremely laggy but it sped up afterwards.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
This is true, I fixed the wifi and Tethering issues I was having a few days earlier but I'd still like the most up-to-date kernel w/ MT! We NEED to figure out those commits.
[G1 Android Development] Ronnymes:
I have a error with flashing v2.5.1

E:Failure at line 268

copy_dir PACKAGE:data DATA:

installation aborted
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Did you wipe your ext2 or ext3 before flashing?
[G1 Android Development] Ronnymes:
Aj, didn't... :o

Tnx for the quick replay

And it's working! :)
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Hahaha I'm glad. Unfortunately/fortunately I fixed MT and am about to upload it!!!!! hahahahaha sorry. Anyway, it will be an unthemed version.
[G1 Android Development] Ronnymes:
@ ccyrowski

Gonna check your new build, but can you ad more language's to it?

Maybe the Dutch language ( NL )

Tnx!
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Yea, do you know another ROM that has it so I can add it in?
[G1 Android Development] Ronnymes:
yeah CyanogenMod v3.9.7 has it build in.
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
Hot Damn! 2.5.2?
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
is 2.5.1 themed? thanks

Android Screen

Hey I got a question. I'm stuck on the android screen for this rom. Prior to the flash of this rom I backed my g1 up to JF 1.5.1 (which any JACHero I flash works: 2.6.3, 2.7.3, and 2.7.4r ). Yes I have the Radio and SPL. Somehow I'm missing the easy step of flashing ROMs. Can anyone help out.
[G1 Android Development] Markus214:
Wipe and Wipe your ext2/3? I do that when ever i would go from a hero rom to a non and i have no problems.
[G1 Android Development] Markus214:
Hey elite, if you have the zip file of that Hero build of 2.6.3 can you please send it to me. the only one I can find is slowsd.

Sorry guys know its off topic
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
updated the OP with JACMyTouchSkiv2.5.2

MT works

BT works

Wifi issues fixed (you guys didn't experience this)

semi-themed.

FAST, FAST, FAST!!!! :):D:cool:

I will be working on the MyTouch ROM along with a new Ion/AOSP ROM next.
[G1 Android Development] sim64one:
Hey Ronnymes, how work hero builds on your Dream?
[G1 Android Development] ogwilson:
Does this also support auto apps2sd ala Cyanogen's?
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
If you had read the features you would have found out that yes, it does.
[G1 Android Development] Ronnymes:
It's nice but still a bit of lag, and don't like lag :p
[G1 Android Development] DroidHead:
All of my callers arecomplaining about the background noise....that is a huge bummer to me.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
That's easy to fix. I'll include it in next build.
[G1 Android Development] DroidHead:
AWESOME! I cant wait
[G1 Android Development] ogwilson:
I actually did read the features but I somehow missed that one. Thanks anyway.
[G1 Android Development] Ronnymes:
Can you also change the keyboard, its Chinese or Japanese.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Keyboard is fine go into Settings > Locale and Text > deselect android keyboard and keep Touch Input selected. Fixed!
[G1 Android Development] Ronnymes:
You're right, tnx ;)
[G1 Android Development] andrewiz2kewl:
wait for this rom what partitions are compatible with this, like fat32, ext3 or ext4, and linux swap? because i keep getting boot loop with this rom
[G1 Android Development] Ronnymes:
I have fat32, ext3 and linux swap but no bootloops here..
[G1 Android Development] andrewiz2kewl:
oh okay thnx man i'll try that
[G1 Android Development] prscott1:
Hey - this is off topic, but I use a script (and launch with GScript) to backup the data files of various apps including K9. I copy to sdcard and then I have a recover script that copies it back and reboots.

To backup:

echo "Backing up k9 files..."
echo ""
cp -R /data/data/com.fsck.k9beta/* /sdcard/backup/k9/

To recover:

echo "Restoring k9 files..."
echo ""
cp -R /sdcard/backup/k9/* /data/data/com.fsck.k9beta/
sleep 2
reboot

NOTE: I'm using the latest k9beta - so check your /data/data names first since yours may not have the beta in the name.
[G1 Android Development] DanFarva:
Paid Apps

Anyone else having trouble downloading paid apps?

Investigating but just curious....
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
no, it works for me.
[G1 Android Development] notxel21:
So when exactly do we get these ported apps?

First app to hit 100 votes!!?:rolleyes: :D
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
when the poll ends July 18th at 1:48AM i will do my darnedest to port the winning app. :)
[G1 Android Development] PsychoKilla666:
damn, thats unacceptable =\
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
very cool, screenshots anyone?
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Imagine a regular cupcake theme with the cool dialer etc...
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
sweet, im in
[G1 Android Development] romeo0119:
Any one have a problem with incoming call show up as unknown number? Any incoming calls are showing as unknown. I was on 2.5.1 and I didn't have any of this prob. Its not tmobile either because I put my sim into my iphone and it works fine.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Did you wipe ext2 or ext3 before flashing?

I do not have this problem .
[G1 Android Development] seufert:
Calls inbound ID fine for me. (2.5.2)

However, when I tried top open PDF viewer, I was told its only for HTC Devices, and has since uninstalled itself from my phone.

Bluetooth still has some funnyness on the first pairing to my car stereo (had 2 pair it twice for it to work) as a hands-free, but does work fine now that its paired.

And DAMN this build is FAST.

Oh and it appears as thou compcache is missing from the 2.5.2 build.
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
C you've outdone yourself my man, 2.5.2 is fantastic!

I love all of the bells and whistles without all of the smoke and mirrors.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Correct, I did not include it. Will do so soon.

And damn, I thought I had PDF Viewer working!
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
whats the terminal command to remove it? id like to just put it in manually but i want to remove this one first, it didnt uninstall itself from my phone...thanks
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
# rm /system/app/PDFViewer.apk

or

# rm /data/app/PDFViewer.apk

I forgot where I put it :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
damn youre quick, thanks

edit: i got rm failed for both, any other ideas?
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
su

mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

rm /system/app/PDFViewer.apk
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
jesus. thank you for holding my hand as usual
[G1 Android Development] seufert:
One other strange thing, cant install 'Hi MSN Beta' from the market, downloads ok, but wont install, and since that happened i dont seem to be able to run adb logcat, need to reboot the phone. I will try and capture the error message if its any help.

Edit: And the alarm clock even thou it has 5 clock faces to choose from, 4 of them are the same clockface. I guess themes will fix that at some stage.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Please try and capture the error message using logcat, as that is the only thing that helps!
[G1 Android Development] Markus214:
CC are you going to incorporate into one of your next MyTouch builds a auto updater? Such as the one in cyan's builds? Thanks for the great update and keep up the great work look forward to more of your great builds
[G1 Android Development] :
related reply:

Updates currently require a wipe each time, so AFAIK an auto-updater probably wouldn't be feasible (yet).

-rokk
[G1 Android Development] Markus214:
Thanks rokk. Prolly shouldve read a page or so back haha
[G1 Android Development] daweeze02:
Does this build make you login to gmail before you can use the phone?
[G1 Android Development] seufert:
No you can 'Skip' the create/signin step.
[G1 Android Development] seufert:
Appaears as thou its not your problem. After playing with the phone for abit, went to capture the logcat stuff, and this time it worked no problem. Phone must of needed a reboot.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Sometimes all the phone needs is a tender stroke and a reboot. :)
[G1 Android Development] W.O.P.R:
Which version of the Mail.apk does this ROM have? Is it the actual MyTouch Work Mail or the FULL Exchange support version with Mail, Contacts and Calendar syncing?

I searched by Exchange, Mail.apk, Activesync and didn't come up with an exact answer.

thanks.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Work mail. Don't use exchange, so I don't know.
[G1 Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Just noticed that the htc ime isnt complete, it only includes the qwerty keyboard (missing phone keypad and compact qwerty). Any way you can add the complete touch input? Its so much better than the stock android one :-)

Also, not sure if everyone else uses it a lot, but i would LOVE to see a reboot option added.

Thanks for a sleek and fast rom, CC :)

Currently using mytouchski 251, until manup has a chance to "manup" the new launcher
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
It has phone keypad and qwerty keypad, just click the little "gear" on the VK and select the one you prefer under keyboard types :)

Also, you can reboot in terminal by typing "reboot"
[G1 Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Awesome, thanks so much for the tip. Love the compact qwerty :-)

I know about the reboot command, but the reboot option on the shutdown menu is just a nice touch, not a big deal though.

Also, do you know if I can push the HTC Camera and framework over from Cyan's build to replace the stock android ones? I just realized I no longer have the HTC camera.....

Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] Markus214:
sms homescreen

So okay I thought this was very. Interesting. On the home screen look at your messaging app. It has the smiley face but also says XDA next to that. Haha. I'm sorry if that was mentioned before but I was always curious what's the update with sms.apk. so just thought id share that with everyone
[G1 Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Ya, that was done by rgv151, i believe, who wrote the sms\mms apk. Its been like that for a few weeks, but this forum moves so fast...zooom
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Yes this forum does move fast, and 2.5.2 has an updated MMS.apk but sans the xda and smiley face (Hero icon)
[G1 Android Development] Rmag37:
How does this mod run? I don't know much about Mytouch, I think i remember reading that it has 288mb of RAM or something. Does this ROM lag like Hero ROMs, or run smooth like JACxROM?
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
Definitely very smooth
[G1 Android Development] Rmag37:
Maybe I'll give it a try... Is this ROM missing any features? The hard keyboard and LEDs work right? Does it come with unstable apps bundled? I love the hero music player for instance but it crashes... alot. Oh, I only have a class 2 SD card, how well does this mod do with that? JACxROM is great with even a class2.

EDIT: Does this ROM have any battery eaters? Rogue apps, battery meters on the lock screen, and things like that?
[G1 Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Slow down there, Everyone has their preference on ROM builds. I have recently been jumping between Cyanogens, JACxROM 1.3, and this one, and each ROM has significant benefits. I would say make a switchrom script(search) backup of your settings and make a image of each, so you can jump back and forth to see which one you like without too much inconvenience :D.

EDIT: FYI, comparing a hero build to these mytouch\AOSP builds is like comparing apples to oranges, imo. The real decision if you want a fully operational phone is the different mytouch\AOSP, as they all have their perks.
[G1 Android Development] Rmag37:
So its more like vanilla android than Hero? I just wondered because it was meant for a more powerful phone. I suppose I should just test the rom i can find out the answers to most of my questions that way. I'll probably try this out after i get a few days with JACxROM 1.4
[G1 Android Development] dipeshb:
Easier Flash?

About to flash this ROM, and usually before I flash a new ROM I would delete all the files in /system/sd/dalvik-cache but leave the /system/sd/app folder intact with all my apps inplace. I will do a wipe ofcourse also.

I have never had any problems with flashing roms this way.. Why do a full ext3 wipe?

Am I missing something, for example, by leaving my /system/sd/app folder intact, does this cause problems for odex'ing with this ROM?

- This has the advantage that for a new ROM flash, the apps are auto installed...
[G1 Android Development] allk:
nice rom............
[G1 Android Development] Ceres1979:
I am getting this error message when installing the 2.5.2:

I noticed that you said wiping my ext3 partition would fix this problem so I tried that but no dice. I verified that there was nothing inside of the partition after the fact by booting into the console again, mounting the partition, and doing an ls -al. It is cleared as it should be.

Any other ideas?
[G1 Android Development] porear:
I am getting the same error. I completely recreated all partitions, but still the same result.
[G1 Android Development] romeo0119:
Try to redownload the update.zip, happened to me before too and I redown it and it works fine.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
redownloading it should work. If not, make sure you're data wiping from recovery.
[G1 Android Development] Ceres1979:
Thanks, that worked for me.
[G1 Android Development] porear:
Me too. Thanks. Fantastic ROM, speed is great. Unfortunately I've got to have the full Exchange :(
[G1 Android Development] walkloc:
battery?

Does anyone have any additional info on how the battery life is holding up??? seems mine dies really fast with average use with this ROM. Switched to JacxRom and have alot better battery life... I would prefer to have this ROM.
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
ive had great battery life.
[G1 Android Development] Ghost117:
Is this rom 32B or 32A. I just rooted my mytouch 3g. Will this run?
[G1 Android Development] zombiebunny58:
I love the update! I didn't think this ROM could get any faster, but it somehow is. The multi-touch is nice too.
[G1 Android Development] acmdorio:

Hi...

I bought my G1 at last december... and till 1 month ago I was a normal user, with Cupcake and normal things... after that I've discovered this XDA forum, got root access, SPL from haykuro, flashed new ROMs... I've used JF, cyanogen, JAC, JustAnotherCrowd, rogers, virtudude, ion... and at last, your ROM...

Thanks all great members for release (and sharing) those ROMs...

And thank you ccyrowski for this really really FAST ROM, with all included add-ons.
[G1 Android Development] dcy2:
Thanks, and PDF Viewer question

First, a big thanks to all who worked this ROM. It's fantastic!!

Second, can anything be done about the PDF Viewer? It wants to run only on HTC devices (which the G1 sure appears to be) and promptly removes itself. Is there an alternative I haven't found yet?

Thanks again!
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
working on it. And thanks!
[G1 Android Development] SlicedKuniva:
okay so i was on a JF rom before and followed the instructions in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=512743 to setup the second partition and get apps to sd, that way i didn't have to spend a bunch of time re-downloading them after i updated to "danger" SPL.

I updated my SPL had the new radio and now I'm using JACMyTouchSkiv2.5.2 and I am wondering why my a2sd is not working now, on my jf rom it said i had 800mb free and now that im on JMTS i have the low memory warning. I am wondering how to fix this.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
apps2sd is automatic.

You should have 84MB free after install. 800MB is a deprecated method of app2sd as there is no benefit from it. It's the same either way. before you flash you have to wipe ext3
[G1 Android Development] SlicedKuniva:
Ah ok so using a2sd doesn't really help with saving your apps when you flash then. So I need to wipe me second partition and then when I install apps will be auto moved to it when I install them?

Is there anyway to save them or atleast the data, like saved game files for when I do reinstall them after wiping?
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
I would get Backup For Root Users from the market. It will back up all your apps and data to your FAT32 partition so you can just reinstall them. And don't worry, it will take awhile for them all to be backed up.

And yea, wipe your EXT3 or EXT2 partition, and data wipe while in recovery. Then flash. :)
[G1 Android Development] SlicedKuniva:
ok thanks, one more question for awhile, promise. Is the only way to wipe ext2 or 3 is to reformat the sd card?
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
no, you can reformat single partitions in gparted, I'm not sure what you use. Also, there are some terminal commands that I forgot but go something like

rm -rf /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
[G1 Android Development] alritewhadeva:
rm -rf /system/sd/*
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
You guys will be seeing an update soon, sorry for the wait.

myfaves

Myfaves drives me crazy.. duplicates my contacts and I dont use it but its on my plan. Is it possible to remove the myfaves.apk via terminal. Ive tried the same commands from JacxROM but it said read only. Is this not possible on this ROM??
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
should be

$ su

# mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

# rm -rf /system/app/MyFaves.apk

# rm -rf /system/app/MyFaves.odex
[G1 Android Development] walkloc:
Thank you!

It said read only access with those commands, so I tried it without the f and it worked.

$ su

# mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

# rm -r /system/app/MyFaves.apk

# rm -r /system/app/MyFaves.odex
[G1 Android Development] JCrusader:
Just have to publish it - It is FAST & STABLE ! Fastest ROM = JacMyTouchSki 2.5.2

I have tried so many ROM s. And now I found the one I'm going to stay with.

It'ls like finding a partner in life. :o)
