change your g1 to mytouch in these recent builds (so you can chat in my account)

Just do the following in terminal (thanks cyanogen, ash rules):

su

ash

mount -o rw,remount /system

vi /system/build.trout.prop

Now I use connect bot instead of terminal (and I connect to localhost) so I know the command for escape is pressing the trackball on my G1 twice, but I don't think terminal accepts that.

In vi I use the ball to scroll around to find this line:

ro.product.model=T-Mobile G1

Then I press i which puts vi in edit mode (or rather insert mode) and change that line to read:

ro.product.model=T-Mobile myTouch 3G

Then I double press the ball to issue the escape command to exit insert mode (if you're using the regular terminal program, press the ball and the 1 button at the same exact time) and press

:wq

That saves the file and quits. Now reboot (just type it and enter) and your trout G1 will identify as a myTouch, giving you all the goodness of chat in the my account app, which works great here in the us, by the way. The rep will think you have a myTouch, so keep that in mind.

For what it's worth, my browser fc'd on me on initial boot of .11.1 but I cleared its cache in settings and rebooted and it's working fine now. But I'll go to 11.2 for the fixed camera. When is htc_ime coming back?
[G1 Android Development] Acsteffy87:
also wondering about some of the HTC widgets and apps. not saying i want it to look like the HTC hero, but i do like the Apps that come with it like the clock widget, bookmarks, HTC peep, and the toggle widgets and flash.
[G1 Android Development] cliffrowley:
Menu -> Search = [nothing|reboot]

Just a quick issue to report:

Without the search widget installed, hitting menu -> search on the default launcher appears to do nothing at all. When using a 3rd party launcher (I use dxTop) it actually panics and reboots the phone. Log attached.
[G1 Android Development] uberingram:
This is not going to happen. Ever.
[G1 Android Development] uberingram:
Christ no. I do NOT want that bloatware on my phone. Besides, read the FAQ in his stable build thread. It specifically covers this.
[G1 Android Development] Acsteffy87:
well could you provide a link? this forum is so over populated its hard to find some things.

and ok he doesnt have to include the apps in his rom but atleast provide a tutorial for people that would like to add these apps.
[G1 Android Development] uberingram:
Here you go:

Besides, with these ROM's getting almost too big for the Hard/Engineering SPL's to handle would you rather have MyFaves or Donut code? I choose Donut code.

Then there's that really annoying feature of the MyFaves apk to phone home via SMS.
[G1 Android Development] Acsteffy87:
so is that meaning we need the APK file? or we need the ODEX file? cuz i have the APK for myfaves

and what about the hero apps and widgets
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
I just make roms and write code. Other people do a great job with tutorials. Just search the apps forum for MyFaves and you'll find it with install instructions.
[G1 Android Development] question.com:
so i upgraded again and the search widget still didnt work and the browser still FC on me. decided to say **** it, and wipe. its been months since i had to wipe. lol

everything is working great again
[G1 Android Development] uberingram:
Here you go again:
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
This is actually outdated, we got a working one from the myTouch rom.
[G1 Android Development] uberingram:
No kidding? I guess I need to venture outside of the Dream forum once in a blue moon. :D
[G1 Android Development] Acsteffy87:
aha, well thanks guys for the quick replies. i do appreciate it. now i just need to decide on using this rom or eViL HeRo v1.3x.

dont really know what each one has over the other, and if this is not the place to discuss this just tell me so, please dont burn me at the stake. :)
[G1 Android Development] xordis:
Updated to 3.9.11.2 after having the acore crash over and over.

Now all my icons have gone (I can add them back in again).

But more important when I just added the search widget back on acore crash again.

Is this just me (I don't mind doing a wipe), or is this a problem for everyone?
[G1 Android Development] Acsteffy87:
aha, well thanks guys for the quick replies. i do appreciate it. now i just need to decide on using this rom or stick with eViL HeRo v1.3x.

For those of us that where able to use Haykuro's 'Danger' SPL without brickage, space is also not an issue.

And @ Acsteffy, the main advantage of Cyan's roms over others is that they are tweaked for performance, and he puts a lot of cutting edge Android stuff into them.
[G1 Android Development] lordsaibat:
Thanks for the explanation. So this issue with themes is because it is using code from cupcake and we are diving into donut and eclair code now. Has the base code changed that much for the "desktop". I know you got a lot on your plate and your awesome with the roms, man.
[G1 Android Development] skepsis:
I'm having the same issue, Ima just wipe n flash again, If I still run into the acore FC I will provide a Logcat and hope cyanogen (The God) has a fix ^^
[G1 Android Development] uberingram:
This ROM is designed to fit within the confines of the Hard/Engineering SPL.

Bluetooth borken with 3.9.10

Bluetooth stereo can listen music, however when make a call, it can't receive the sound, and after that, even without bluetooth make a call will be no sound. Workaround is to restart your phone.
[G1 Android Development] jshickam:
I was having this problem as well. Ran fix_permissions and works good without wipe.
[G1 Android Development] kerauno:
fix_permissions worked for me as well. I was experiencing fc on multiple apps like browser, shopping cart, barcode scanner.

No need to wipe.

Job well done!
[G1 Android Development] BrooklynAvi:
FYI

Re: v3.9.11.2

Browser force closes upon open.

Can't type into search widget.

Just so you know, I did NOT do a wipe before install. I am sure that that might solve these issues (as stated by a previous poster), however I'd rather not go through that process if I don't have to (200+ app, you know). Besides, I've never experienced this problem with an update before and I've done several over the last week alone.

Log attached.

Update: WIPE, WIPE, WIPE! LOL. I resolved this in a later post.
[G1 Android Development] userfriendlyme:
Actually there is a version of MYFAVs that works on Cyanogens roms..its posted in the APP forum and can be found there you need to push the file over. I tried it myself and didn't have and issue. Sometimes when you search you still find conflicting information....i hope this clears it up http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=4231895#post4231895
[G1 Android Development] benmyers2941:
@Cyanogen

It's easy enough to get to via the console in your recovery 1.4, but have you ever thought of integrating to autorun after an update? As far as I understand it there's not really any harm in running it when not needed and it could reduce a lot of the issues we see with a new version.
[G1 Android Development] xordis:
fix_permissions didn't help.

Just wiped and reflashed and it's all good again.

Probably a good thing to do anyway as I was chopping and changing stuff round a lot anyway
[G1 Android Development] pinetreehater:
Yeah, I just installed The Dudes Cupcakev1.3.RC2 on my spare phone and ran it head to head against CM 3.9.10...you don't even want to know how ugly that was.
[G1 Android Development] painrage:
possible prob with dule support

i'm having issues with rotation crashing apps and things like weather bug not starting and was wondering since i have a dream pvt 32B could b causing issues with the duel support rom will try more flashing between 3991 and 39910 and see if there is a diff sorry i'm a little premature but just tried 39112 and got some weird problems
[G1 Android Development] pistol4413:
i might be off topic but how ugly was it????
[G1 Android Development] pinetreehater:
Dude, that's like one big ol' long sentence...what are you asking? Have you reinstalled the apps, it is pretty common to get force closes on apps like weatherbug and google voice, and quite a few others....try that first
[G1 Android Development] Maisum:
I'm pretty sure everyone loved you ALONGGGGG time ago lol
[G1 Android Development] pinetreehater:
Ugly. Maybe I will make a video. Hell, maybe I'll run a weekly series featuring this weeks comparisons.....

problem with map related apps

Hi all, this is a great rom.

But I'm having problem with google map related apps e.g. my tracks and place directory. Does anyone have any idea to solve the problem? I've placed the link to the logcat. (Don't know how to attach file)

I found the problem with v3.9.11.2 and it used to be working for a few versions back.

http://www.alexang.org/logcat.txt
[G1 Android Development] pistol4413:
that sounds like an great idea. makes it easier to see the pros and cons of the diffrent roms. i liked ur bit on the stock vs swap vs compcache
[G1 Android Development] Janis:
Bluetooth issues: reflash the radio

This was discussed earlier in the thread, but over 4000 posts is a lot to read through. However, searching for "bluetooth" in the thread is not so much to look through....

This doesn't necessarily apear to be ROM related as much as related to flashing any ROM. It happens. Get the radio I used successfully here

Guys, I know it only seems like one post, but the more posts people have to sort through, the more there are questions like this. The clutter is exponential (as are most things). Believe me, I understand the value of sharing joy, but, you know, think of something useful to say so that you can say, "whoopie!!" and make the post a functional part of the thread. It's a post, not a note, 100's of people will read it, maybe even someone who's thinking about hiring you.
[G1 Android Development] pinetreehater:
It has been updated to cover the changes the Boss made to the way CompCache works...CompCache vs. Linux swap..
[G1 Android Development] BrooklynAvi:
Yeah, I know, I know. Wipe!

I thought I could get away with getting a possible answer but after going over past posts I see that I should be wiping and not posting issues if I don't. Lesson learned. I will either wipe or restore a version that worked well for me. Sorry.

Update: For all those who have not read through the various instructions on how to update ROMs (i.e., me;)), a wipe fixes ALL problems. I have been extremely hesitant to do wipes in the past because I don't like losing app data and other settings. So, without doing any complicated copying of the data folder, I simply use My Backup Pro to restore many of the basic settings such as system settings, home screen icons (extremely important for me since I have all apps in folder on my desktop), SMS, dictionary, alarms, etc. You will have to fiddle with settings for other apps but I am sure that you will have important app data backed up anyway. The real lesson I learned from this, and one I think anyone reading this thread needs to learn ASAP, is that if you are flashing experimental Cyanogen ROMs daily, get used to wiping. If not, go with stable and never wipe again. And if you can't deal with that, get a spare G1 (like I will be doing soon).
[G1 Android Development] Envisage:
Weather Bug is not working for me either..I uninstalled and re installed it again, and still FC's. Never had this problem in the last CM version.
[G1 Android Development] SoTacMatt:
Browser not working for me either.

I tried wiping the settings and did the recovery fix.

Nothing did the trick.

Steel browser does work.

DxTop not working.
[G1 Android Development] adrieono:
Messaging Force Closes..

Is anyone else getting a FC when trying to compose a text message?

My Bad Reboot Solved It
[G1 Android Development] Envisage:
Sorry for the double post..Also have a problem with Movie Finder..That also FC's like none other, Places Directory seems to start fine, but whenever I click on a category, it FC's. adrieono, I don't seem to have a problem with trying to compose a text message. SoTacMatt, the Browser worked for me also.
[G1 Android Development] Janis:
If you haven't try reinstalling the apps. A flash messes with things, permissions, whatnot.

You have to go to Advanced mode (there's a button below) when you reply to upload a file, and it has to have an acceptible extension and size to upload. Your work-around was perfect.

Other people who read this: please don't post an issue with an app unless you've tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it and are still having a problem. As a matter of fact, maybe wiat on app-related issues until you come across a system app bugging out, then you can combine 2 posts into one.

I'm wondering if 3.9.11+, since it seems to have some major new features and bugs, should be in a new thread. This one truly is formidable.
[G1 Android Development] alapapa:
i flashed and had icons, but rebooted and they were gone.

rebooted again and voila, they were back
[G1 Android Development] ZerotigerX:
Same thing happened to me except the icons never came back.
[G1 Android Development] Envisage:
Downgraded back to CM 3.9.10, and the apps I mentioned that were Force Closing are not anymore. Weather Bug works, Places Directory works, and after reinstalling Movie Finder, it also works. Hope this helps prove that it could be the ROM. Also, when flashed, I did not format or anything. Just flashed CM 3.9.10
[G1 Android Development] benji:
had acore forceclose issues, did fix_permissions, did not fix, did a wipe, fixed the issue.

installed advanced launcher 13, rebooted, acore fc issue came back. did fix_permissions and wipe again, did not fix issue, restored original launcher backup, and wiped and fix_permission, still had acore fc.

gave up and downgraded to 3.9.10.

kinda upset i did a worthless wipe... oh well
[G1 Android Development] 5spot:

@ Cyan, feature removed? When I open the app drawer, I used to be able to type in the first couple lketters of a app and it would show up, now it won't. Can you bring that back? Thanks
[G1 Android Development] Payne IV:
That's replaced by the Universal search.. use the search widget and start typing, it will search through everything on your phone (Apps, Contacts, Bookmarked pages, browser history, etc). So you can search for apps that way...

Not quite as fast as before but it is really a great feature.
[G1 Android Development] Prokktor:
Had that Problem, wipe did not help, erased everything from ext3 Partition... that helped^^

Even my Trackball is flashing again :-)

Great work!

[G1 Android Development] prash:
Cyan,

I think I Found an odd frameworks crashing bug. I posted about it earlier:

I thought I had it fixed, but I'm on 3.9.11.2 now and it's happening again. here is a snippet of the exception errors and a log file attached:

My activity: Open browser, start typing a url before its fully done loading the 'home' page. The url I used before was in my bookmarks, this time it happened with a random url I wanted to go to. I've replicated this once without logcat and once with DDMS logcat running. This is a snippet from where the errors start and after that it reboots, so the log file might be full of reboot stuff at the end. I snipped around it.

Rest continues in txt file attached. (Had to rename to .zip to allow bigger file size upload, please rename to txt and not open it as zip)

View attachment logcat2222.txt_takeoffthe.zip

FWIW I think its caused by the physical keyboard itself. Sort of like the donut code is not expecting a physical keyboard to be present and does not know what to do in case someone starts inputting text from it.
[G1 Android Development] xidominicanoix:

sorry old ass sig
[G1 Android Development] prash:
It seems whenever the system is busy loading a page, you can't use the search because it causes the frameworks to collapse and freak out. If you let the page load, then start typing, it'll work perfectly fine. So those without patience will run into the bug.
[G1 Android Development] 4treyu:
After upgrading to 3.9.11.2, I'm experiencing again the bug with the htc ime activating even when the physical keyboard is open. I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling HTC_IME.apk but that didn't solve the problem.

seeing odd reboot as well.

Only happened once, shortly after flashing .2 from .9.10. Phone was freaking out, I was just connecting to a Wifi network when I received a phone call. Couldn't answer the call, tried to call back and couldn't dial out then the phone just went to black, android screen then quickly came back to my homescreen.

Haven't seen anything like it since but thought I'd throw in my two cents.
[G1 Android Development] PhaseBurn:
Also, keep in mind that not all of us are on <insert provider here>'s network. I'm not on T-Mobile, and would really find it inconvenient to have to uninstall all the carrier-specific apps all the damn time if they were included by default in the ROMs. I'd start ROM repackaging with out those apps if that happened, and possibly distributing them if the ROM baker didn't have any objections.

Apps can be installed after you upgrade the ROM, and, if installed afterwards like that, they *usually* stick around during ROM upgrades, too. It's a win/win situation for you to install what you want on your phone yourself, and leave the ROMs carrier-unspecific.
[G1 Android Development] alapapa:
steel does not support https

does it work over wifi? have you tried another build (you're on 3.9.11.2 right?)

i had this issue before, but my APN was wrong -- yours looks right to me

EDIT: I have a * under Server -- not sure why, but everything seems to be working for me network wise as of right now
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
My suggestion would be to create a stable 4.0 release w 3.9.10 and the network location bug fix and then create another experimental branch w the new search functionality.
[G1 Android Development] sir*mez:
i got the reboot after i got into the browser and when it got back to the home screen all my icons and widgets were gone. doing a nandroid back up and reflashing 3.9.11.2. lets see if it happens again.
[G1 Android Development] benji:
to fix acore fc issue on 3.9.11.2

downgrade to 3.9.10

remove search bar from home screen

upgrade to 3.9.11.2

reboot

add search bar back to home screen

alternatively you could edit the widget config to not include the search bar from recovery
[G1 Android Development] zimphishmonger:
I can confirm this as well, although I believe Cyan reverted the HTC_IME fix until he could figure it out, so I think we are gonna have to deal till he figures it out. Life of a beta tester.....
[G1 Android Development] SoTacMatt:
The dxTop search bar was causing it to not work.

Still trying to get browser working for me. Cyanogen suggested rebooting, hasn't worked for me yet.
[G1 Android Development] alapapa:
from the changelog

"Home alternatives don't work so well with the global search. Hopefully the app authors provide an update. Pester them about it please."

I don't think running dxtop on this build is such a good idea at this point. too much potential for brokenness
[G1 Android Development] blueheeler:
That's exactly why you should do a Nandroid backup before installing any new rom.
[G1 Android Development] 4treyu:
Well AFAIK, the HTC_IME Fix Cyan introduced in 3.9.9 was what caused this bug in the first place, so he reverted the fix in 3.9.10 and the bug dissapeared, at least for me. I'm back to 3.9.10 and I don't have this problem.
[G1 Android Development] 4treyu:
+1 for that. To Cyanogen the final word about it of course.
[G1 Android Development] teflon252:
there's a terrible acore force close with this rom...
[G1 Android Development] SoTacMatt:
Agreed.

But, about the browser. I did a wipe, and now the browser and universal search bar is working.

Now... back to that dxtop! :P
[G1 Android Development] ubernicholi:
Clear your browser data and cache. Then reboot.
[G1 Android Development] Alphones:
This happened to me when I upgraded to 3.9.11.2.

Then I wiped, and put icons on dxtop. After reboot for browser fc, all icons were gone again.

No theme installed, no other home app installed.
