Changing notification color

What would be the easiest way to change notification bar text color from black to white.

I'm using gloss suite theme.

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
good deal

Hi ramp1999,

Glad to hear it finally started working for you. This is good news.

I hope everything else goes well for you.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Hi gewa,

I don't know which build you are using, but if it's the CRC1-US or CRC37-EU, then this almost next to impossible todo in any easy fashion. This is due to the fully odex'd nature of the builds.

There are some side projects underway that might yield some progress on this subject matter, but for now, there's simply no easy way.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] gewa:
Thanks for the answer

I'm using ADP-CRC1

would anyone mind posting terminal commands to remove amazon? The way i tried didnt work, i used root explorer to delete it from apps and dalvik so it wont open but the icon is still there, i tried several commands in terminal but dont know the right one... thanks
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
removing amazon

Hey DMaverick50,

Sorry it's there, but wouldn't/couldn't be "TheOfficial" without it, lol.

su
busybox mount -o rw,remount /system
rm /system/app/com.amazon.mp3.apk
exit
exit

There ya go!

Always a good idea to reboot after this kind of thing too.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
Youre quick enom! thanks

Better Terminal Magic

All,

Just an update, if you download the latest free "Better Terminal Magic" from the Market, it now allows pressing numbers.

So MyTouch3G users can easily use the 'expsetup' command in the TerminalApp.

HERO Theme

All,

RichieDaze & I collaborated on a HERO theme and have posted this work.

See POST #7 (as always). Hope all enjoys, let us know.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] DOHCtor:
Thank you! Will be testing after I nandroid.
[G1 Android Development] DOHCtor:
Hey Enom and Richiedaze, the hero theme worked great! My brother loves it. Thanks for all your hard work guys.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
feedback appreciated

Thanks for the feedback DOHCtor. I'm glad to hear the work is appreciated.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Well the ADP anyways. The TMO builds are fully odex'd, so it's a no go on status bar text color change.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] hegemytouch:
Ok thanks alot olearyp
[G1 Android Development] sasa3791:
Hi Enom,

Do u recommend update radio on dream EBI0 to Radio Image update 2.22.23.0 on yr ROM 2.6.2?

What we getting with this update also?
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Until I see it in an actual OTA for dream from TMO ... I'm not really recommending it.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] AnderWeb:
Ok, thankyou both for the hint!
[G1 Android Development] sasa3791:
ok, thank you
[G1 Android Development] Jdom58:
Enom thanks for that quick update, especially maps :D

BTW not sure of what long term effects will be if any but I'm running the new radio and 3g reception is much better and working perfectly at the moment, also displaying 4 bars where in only used to get 2.
[G1 Android Development] chief2842:
Hey Enom have you had a chance to pinpoint the lag some are getting in the TMO US build when going to and from the dialer/contacts etc?
[G1 Android Development] reynacubana:
I downloaded the AOSP-1.6_r2 + ADP DRD36 & it's expansion pack about 3 days ago, everything works good except the screen won't rotate no matter what. Only time it does rotate is if I'm on Youtube then it stays that way until I click the end button then unlock the phone then it goes back to normal. Is there anyway to fix this & make it rotate when I turn & get the full keyboard also.
[G1 Android Development] chief2842:
Did you go into your settings/sound$display and check the orientation box?
[G1 Android Development] reynacubana:
Yes I made sure that was checked & it's on.
[G1 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
You can try to reset the Rotation cache using Amon_Ra's recovery. Might also work.
[G1 Android Development] reynacubana:
Do you know where I can find instructions on how to do that. I have the Amon_Ra recovery image 1.5.2
[G1 Android Development] Jdom58:
You are going to need to upgrade it to recovery v1.6.2
[G1 Android Development] reynacubana:
I found that recovery on this site but it says it's for the nexus one only.

I did wipe the rotation just now but it still will not rotate
[G1 Android Development] Jdom58:
No look again at the Amon_RA thread it says in post #1

"This recovery is for the HTC Dream/G1 only"
[G1 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
This is not true. Version 1.52 also has the option to reset the Rotation settings. No need at all to install 1.62.

The option to reset the settings is under "Wipe".
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
Either way, the feature is in Recovery 1.5.2G for Magic, which is what it sounds like he has (from the "full keyboard" comment), so I doubt that's his problem (he did say he cleared it.) I have no ideas beyond that--usually the option in Settings is wrong.

@reynacubana: You do need to tell us which phone you're using when asking for help, since it does matter.
[G1 Android Development] reynacubana:
I have a mytouch 3g from tmobile. It's ok I guess I'm just outta luck for it.

[G1 Android Development] TonyDeez:
Google Maps is failing to update through Market. Any reason why?
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
See the 2.6.2 changelog & flash the update.
[G1 Android Development] TonyDeez:
I am using the AOSP 2.6.2 expack.

I've used both 2.6.1 and 2.6.2. The 2.6.2 comes with a homescreen that actually has the old G. Maps on it. While 2.6.1 has a blank spot that G.Maps should be in.
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
The ROM doesn't even come with Maps. Hasn't in a few versions; enomther stopped packaging it soon after Google put it on the market with Navigation and people couldn't update it without jumping through several hoops.

You might want to go ahead and uninstall whatever Maps you ended up with, and try again.
[G1 Android Development] jamerican413:
Maps...

For those having problems with updating Google Maps from the Market, try this: download the program "Nav Launcher" from the Market. Open Nav Launcher and tell it to navigate to one of your contacts, anyone you have an address for. It will tell you that you do not have navigation installed, that you have root and to click the install button that you see. It will open the browser and download a maps.root.apk file. When it's done, click on the download, let it install and you will have 4.0 installed. I'm not sure how it does it, but it works. I found it out purely by mistake, on a strange hunch.
[G1 Android Development] hegemytouch:
i got the mytouch 3g and i rooted my phone everything works great. I just have a question for anybody that can help me...what is the best ROM i can put on my phone {with everything working}. Just please someone let me know...thanks a lot.
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
You're going to get a different answer everywhere you go, and asking inside a specific ROM's thread is gonna get you biased answers :). (Note--don't start a new thread in Android Development asking your question; you will be set aflame and you still won't get an answer.) If there was a "best ROM" you wouldn't see so many. Figure out what's important to you and test a few.

I didn't really want to screw around so I installed this first and stuck with it. I wanted something stable, since a large part of rooting my phone was (for me) purely based on the ability to do so. Rooted features are a nice perk, but first and foremost it needed to function as a communications device.

Good luck. If you stay, good to have you; if you find another ROM you like better, enjoy it!
[G1 Android Development] revengineer:
Thanks for the speedy fix. I confirm the reboot via applications working again!

rev
[G1 Android Development] hegemytouch:
Ok thanks a lot...sorry for starting a new thread im new to this and did not know. Well i love this ROM and im going to stick with it thanks for everything and sorry for being a pain.
[G1 Android Development] Rebellion_CA:
Enom,

Don't know if you have had anyone test the EBI1 patch but I just lost my data. I installed the ADP version with the EBI1 all together at the same time and I had data from Wednesday night until this morning. Is there any way to look into this. I want to keep 1.6 on my Dream.:(

Rebellion
[G1 Android Development] Bigt2003:
I'm not sure what was wrong with 2.6.1, but I can confirm that 2.6.2 does not let you download Maps from the market on AOSP. If you have a older version it says "incompatible update" and if you uninstall the old one it says "the package file is not signed correctly." It works fine on the TMO US though. I'm doing a full wipe and rolling back to 2.6.1, I'll post if that doesn't work.

Edit: Rolled back to 2.6.1 and downloaded Maps with no problems.
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
You were hitting signature errors, indicating that you had a version of Maps not from Google lying around somewhere in the system. Since it was registered in packages.xml (the "incompatible update" error) it was probably in /system/app. How it got there, I don't know, but it's doubtful it's a bug in 2.6.2 unless it's reproducible after a wipe.

I'll note again for the record that Maps 4.0 made the upgrade from AOSP 2.5.1 to 2.6.1 without a problem for me. So no idea what the deal is.
[G1 Android Development] Jdom58:
I agree with Pat, try doing what he said or just a clean install. I had the maps installation problem with 2.6.1 where it would download fine from market and always fail to install. That's one of the reasons Enom came out with 2.6.2 and now everything is working just right. Great ROM very fast, no FCs, and extremely stable can't ask for more...Well we could :D
[G1 Android Development] samirius one:
my fone freezes after android load-up screen

I'm coming from aosp 2.51exp. I did a wipe and flashed the new aosp base (load up fine) but when I flashed the 2.6.2 exp, the fone freezes after the android screen. Any clues wut is going on? I don't think I can do a log of that. Can I?

Do I need to go to 2.6.1 first then attempt 2.6.2?

As far as I know I got ebi0. Should I try the ebi1 or is that foolish?

Is anybody else having this problem.

I need my exp party favors.

Thank you all for the good job u do.
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
You can in fact logcat that since the kernel has loaded. There's no problem going straight to 2.6.2. I see you are a T-Mobile customer so EBI1=="DO NOT WANT".

Finally, you don't necessarily have to wipe 2.5.1 to 2.6.x, though it shouldn't hurt.
[G1 Android Development] motohip:
This! Thank you! I can't live without G Maps and thought I'd have to go back to the stupid stock ROM! :D
[G1 Android Development] DKM119:
I'm running 2.6.1 without problms...i've been able to install Maps 4.0 everything is working ok for me..i did a fresh install of course(base extension pack and theme) thanks enom once again you did it!!
[G1 Android Development] sasa3791:
i finished that with brut.all maps4.0.0-brut6.apk and all works fine
[G1 Android Development] samirius one:
worked fine

i think my apps2sd partition was the problem. as soon as i reformatted my sd card, wiped and re flashed the 2 zips, it worked......weird.. i just re-did the partition.

as always thanks lot.
[G1 Android Development] qwerty3656:

[G1 Android Development] Jdom58:
Hey quick question since I was running SuperD for a while and don't remember, but didn't Loccy's browser have MT enabled on this ROM? I thought it did but can't get it working so maybe I'm mistaken.
[G1 Android Development] VGPOP:
I'm getting stuck at the G1 screen after trying to flash latest theme for drpfenderson's Enoch Theme 1.4.13.0.1 (v2.6.1)

I saw that version is still v.2.6.1, and I had expansion pack v2.6.2.

Now it's stuck at the G1 screen.

I wiped and flashed ----- v2.6.2 - Expansion-Pack - (3/4/2010) for AOSP-1.6_r2 + ADP DRD36

and nothing.
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
It does and there's nothing special you have to do, other than actually installing it (select in theme profile from GUSTO, let it reboot to recovery on exit, and flash theme/theme template).

There was no theme update for 2.6.2 as nothing that affects theming should have changed. And if it's stuck at the G1 screen, I doubt that the theme could have even done that. You did pick up the correct expansion pack (if you're not Canadian, you want EBI0)?
[G1 Android Development] totaldrk62:
I'm also having Google Maps signed package failure on 2.6.2 AOSP. I've wiped twice, even gone so far as to repartition my SD card. I did not have this problem with 2.6.1. Odd, I might just try going back to 2.6.1.
[G1 Android Development] VGPOP:
This is what I did.

I installed expansion pack v.2.6.2, flashed it, and it went OK.

Then I thought I had downloaded v.2.6.2 of the theme, I turned off phone, flashed theme 2.6.1 (when I thought it was 2.6.2) and it got stuck at G1 screen.

I removed battery, turned on phone, wiped and installed expansion pack v.2.6.2 again, and now it's ALSO is stuck in G1 screen
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
Got that. There are no theme changes 2.6.1->2.6.2, so you have the right theme. The theme doesn't affect anything that can stick you at the G1 screen, as it only writes to /system and /data. Bootloops, sure, that would be a possibility. Therefore, I asked if you got the EBI0 expansion pack, because the EBI1 pack would have the symptoms you describe.

You should go back and flash base to ensure you have a clean boot image and go from there. Don't wipe before flashing expansion after flashing base as that can cause problems--if you wipe, go back to base.
[G1 Android Development] VGPOP:
No, I am not Canadian.

I have a SD card reader somewhere here. There's no way for me to install base since my phone can't reboot.
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
I'll note again that signature failures occur when there is a signature conflict in the system; this can only happen if an "unofficial" Maps was installed on the system at some point, either resigned by a ROM builder or modder like Brut.all. If it's a straight up signature failure, then the conflicting Maps is still installed; uninstall it. If you get "Update incompatible," then the conflicting signature is cached in /data/system/packages.xml and the entry must be removed by hand.

I'm not in the mood to potentially break my phone right now--I'm having enough fun with breaking my Mythbox with HD audio in ALSA--so if someone on a truly fresh wipe & install of AOSP base and expansion 2.6.2, before doing anything else, wants to post a copy of /data/system/packages.xml, I'll take a look.
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
That wasn't my question. I asked if you accidentally snagged the wrong expansion pack, since enomther didn't really make much distinction in the first post. (He should take a look at that and clarify who needs EBI1 nearer the download links.)

So you're saying you can't get to recovery? Well, the theme definitely doesn't write recovery.img (or I'd have bricked my phone when I flashed it). I'm not sure what happened, but your symptoms don't match up with your description of events, which means that somehow, what happened isn't what you think happened. Happens to me all the time, which is why my Mythbox can no longer play audio.
[G1 Android Development] VGPOP:
I can get to recovery screen (CyanogenMod v1.4 + JF).

I'll see if I install base ROM and flash it to fix this.
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
Oh, good, I was worried there for a minute!

Yeah, definitely try that. I think we may be on the right track again.
[G1 Android Development] VGPOP:
Yeah. That fixed it. I have my T-Mobile Wing as a "card reader". I just removed SD card from my G1 and put it in my Wing, so I can install any files I need.

I downloaded rooted base (AOSP-1.6_r2 + ADP DRD36), removed SD card from Wing, put it in my G1.

Turned on phone. I wiped, formatted Ext2 partition, and installed rooted base and that fixed problem.

Question now, do I need to install expansion pack to get the latest update? Or the rooted base has this already? (I can't recall right now). What's the difference between expansion pack 2.6.2 with expansion pack 2.6.2 (for EBI1 users)?

I won't mess with the theme until I see I have the correct version.
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
You'll want the regular expansion 2.6.2 (NOT the EBI1 version!). Flash it, boot it. Wait.

Then pick up your desired theme (it'll say 2.6.1, but that's OK, see changelog "-== All 2.6.1 themes are still GOOD, so just apply the new expansion"), configure your theme profile in GUSTO if you want any optional apps, reboot to recovery again, then flash the theme (just like it says in the instructions.) You should now be good to go.
[G1 Android Development] VGPOP:
I actually did this and it worked.

Thanks for this info. Good trick.

I had problem downloading latest Google Maps version. (After downloaded latest pack 2.6.2)
[G1 Android Development] totaldrk62:
I also went the AndNav route and that worked, however the version from the app store doesn't register as installed and still won't let me update it. Really odd. I grabbed the XML requested but it doesn't really mean much to me (never really needed to look at any Android code). Hopefully this helps.

And give up on ALSA. I eventually set my Mythbox up on Pulse and it worked like a charm. Of course I used Mythbuntu so that makes a difference unless Myth has suddenly decided to compile with Pulse.

Oh and you'll have to rename it back to packages.xml
[G1 Android Development] AnderWeb:

Remove those lines (293-298), push packages.xml back, and reboot.

You can't get away from ALSA, it's in the kernel :). PulseAudio is just a sound server and still relies on ALSA for drivers, and I don't need the complication of the Pulse layer (though I am using Mythbuntu). Long story short I've been helping to support HDMI audio for nVidia G/GT2xx GPUs, working with a leaked half-finished driver. We got it kinda working, but now the real driver is hitting the snapshots so I was working to update the instructions. This is the complete saga (and these are the updated instructions.)
[G1 Android Development] totaldrk62:
Works fine now. Thanks for the help!

Ugh. That can't be fun. I've never been a fan of Nvidia on Linux (even when there were no ATI open drivers). And that is just on the video side. I haven't made the switch to HDMI in anything yet (component for life *****es) and I honestly don't feel like changing anytime soon. Good luck on Myth though. It is an absolutely fantastic DVR with the right hardware (and a horrible **** with the wrong...but as usual blame the hardware manufacturer).
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
VDPAU is tasty. And I've been working with Myth for the better part of four years now, and yeah, 'tis also sweet.

Back on-topic: Unless I've missed something, the request for a packages.xml from a clean AOSP install still stands. Don't do it for me (unless you have a spare phone), but if you'll already need to wipe and reinstall, please try to snag it. Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] totaldrk62:
This is from a fresh install. Figured I could break it again and force myself to take a look at some more code. I wiped the whole lot and repartitioned so there is no way there is any leftover code in here. Fresh AOSP + 2.6.2, absolutely nothing installed.
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
Thanks! There is an entry for maps but it doesn't have the key in it. Not sure if it would cause problems though. Since you've installed fresh, can you install Maps from the Market?
[G1 Android Development] totaldrk62:
Nein. Package not signed.
[G1 Android Development] djm25:
how do i install apps to sd im confused cuz first post said auto detech parted sd
[G1 Android Development] totaldrk62:
It is installed automatically if your sd card is partitioned correctly. The easiest way to partition your card correctly is to use RA's recovery image. It's basically a necessity with a rooted Android phone.
[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
Can you try pulling packages.xml, editing (now you should know what you're looking for), pushing, rebooting, and installing from Market?

[G1 Android Development] olearyp:
Android leaves very little memory free because it caches aggressively. Run the following three commands from the terminal to convince yourself that (1) you're partitioned correctly, (2) the swap device is mounted, and (3) you actually do have the swap memory, but most of it is in use.

`lucid -pi' (if it doesn't work, run `lucid -u' first).

`mount'

`free'

NEXUS1?

Enomther - I see you have a NEXUS1 ROM. I am in the market for a new phone. Would you reccomend the NEXUS1? My only android experience is with the G1.

Does anyone have any other suggestions for a good android phone?
