incoming call inaudible

After I updated to 3.4.6 my phone ringer is unaudible. I have done all the updates sofar. Anyone know whats going on with this or a fix. When I go to Settings-> Sound & Display->Ringer volume the application force closes. Updating to 8.1 the issue did not go away. Any help is appreciated
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
Please post a log.
[G1 Android Development] njuncos:
Understand that it would be nice to have the ringtones included in the updat.zip, however, it is a nice space saver to not include them...plus, I just keep them in a folder on my fat32 partition and they show up every time I update the rom. I believe this is the most sensable way to do it and what most people probably do already
[G1 Android Development] thenefield:
I had tried searching beforehand when I was having this problem and found nothing on this thread, so I thought I might help someone else that may be having the same issue. I did not have this problem until recently though, so I did not think to check in the previous thread. It would be nice to have this information in the FAQ where people can easily find it, if it has already been discovered and fixed. In my case, I kept getting the blank home screen no matter how many times I rebooted. It was very frustrating.
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
That's exactly what I do...besides, Cyanogen can't do all the work for us, he has to leave something for us to do ;)

[G1 Android Development] YPhoto:
This is what I do. One question, every few updates I notice all of my notification/ringtones are set to something other that what I have defaulted. It doesn't seem to happen with each revision, but it did again on the latest 3.6.8.1. My Ringtone, Handcent SMS notification tones, GTalk, Gmail and Calendar notifications were all set to tones that I haven't used.

Is there a way I can backup these settings somehow, so if they get reset during an install I can fix them?

I did not do a wipe, just a simple update.zip update. My previous version was 3.6.8 and I don't think I had this happen when I cam from the previous to 3.6.8.

Thanks.

I use backup for root users to backup all my stuff before a wipe and/or update...I'm not positive because I don't backup my settings with it all the time, but I'm pretty sure this would work for you. I generally use it to backup all my other crap including sms, bookmarks, dictionary, alarms, data, etc...really nice program to have around and it just got updated recently and easier to use imho.

Cyan .... Your next Version

Cyan..

I see you are working on trying to incorporate the new LAUNCHER.APK in one of your upcoming releases. When you do, you need to make the release version 4.0 ..... Enough with v3.8.1 ...etc..... This will be a HUGE upgrade on CyanMOD, so let's make it know.. I can't wait until you make it, your MODS are the best.

Also, I am still on 3.7.2 and I will be upgrading when I get home. Should I go straight to 3.8.1 or go to 3.8.0 then 3.8.1 ....

Thanks for all your work
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
I'm going to start a 3.9 "experimental" thread possibly tonight, and it will be called 4.0 when it's ready.

[G1 Android Development] mrnote8:

try looking at post #1563

this may not be the same prob.. this seems to be something more.. have you tried wiping and a reflash? ..or simply rebooting. i know it sounds simple, but alot of solutions are. idk
[G1 Android Development] temporizer:
Jerk lol k/k

I agree with this. Me and mdavid have both done testing and I have found out, can't speak for ndavid, that swap partition works better and smoother, plus gives you longer battery life.

Along the same line as this, in order to include the audio resources in cyans mod, everyone is required to have the "dangerspl" because of spacing issues. If he is able to compress the images good enough, and of course without lag, then it would be possible to add said audio resources.

There is a thread about this in android development > modified launcher...
[G1 Android Development] ubernicholi:
If you have rings extended, you need to clear its settings in settings-> application->manage applications->rings extended-> clear defaults.

If that doesnt work ,clear the cache for each program that you have issues with.

If that doesnt work , using adb remount your file system and goto data/app/ and finnd the programs folder causing the issues and look in it for shared prefs and delete them.

If that doesnt work ,wipe your phone.

Anyone?

I have a rooted Rogers Dream, using Haykuro's method through ADB, have not attempted a flash yet but was thinking of trying this one tonight. Has anyone in Canada flashed this? The T-Mo G1 radio is different, is that a consideration? (I expect so, but have no information to base that on).

Thanks for any help!

Edit: Ignore the flash stuffs, I've done some reading since. Doubt we'll get any Rogers kernel patches from HTC, I've worked support and thrown out that lie "Oh I've sent it to an engineer, we'll get back to you whenever", *e-mail deleted*. Hope Haykuro tosses that phone your way Cyanogen, we Canucks appreciate your efforts to bring us your excellent build.

Cheers!
[G1 Android Development] mdavidf:
I'm with Temporizer on this one. I was using a swap file until a few weeks ago when Temp explained to me the difference between a swap file and a swap paritition. I agree, a swap parition is noticeably faster and smoother than a swap file.

So with a linux-swap partition you don't need to run Swapper it will just automatically recognize the swapper partition and use it as it would in Linux?

What size is your linux-swap partition?

lol, i'm either at work, or at home, and i usually either do all my browsing and/or posting from my g1, and i'm usually outside.

back on topic...

I'm lovin this build version.

I do agree with the sensitive accelerometer.

other than that, golden. Can't wait for the scary experimental version again, thats my kind of testing!!!!

edit: I am having a problem with my sdcard unmounting from the pc automatically. I am running no theme, straight wipe/install of 3.6.8.1

anyone else?
[G1 Android Development] revwillie:
whoah! I just saw something unexpected.

The speed is back after I updated the OREO theme. Wanted to see what I might be missing if I went back to the older CM and OREO. The new OREO integrates HTC Music and apparently deletes the standard Music.apk I feel like I've been wading in quicksand for a day and a half but just broke loose. Looks like I'm going to be making a new nandroid backup instead of restoring the last one!

I'll test some more.
[G1 Android Development] 4treyu:
Hi, I've been testing CM v3.6.8.1 for the last three days and I have to say I haven't experienced a single issue. I'm coming from the dude's 1.3rc2, then his leaked rom (just flashed CM on top with no wipe), but Dude is busy with life now and won't be able to keep his rom up to date.

I find CM a very snappy rom and very stable. I've been doing intensive Wifi, GPS, browsing, Market downloads and updates, bluetooth file transfer (I don't have a set for stereo bt testing) and a little gaming with no problems to report so long. I haven't been listening to music yet but I did test a couple mp3 files in my sdcard and they ran flawlessly (I applied meltus v2 plus bt fix). I have to warn you though that I'm not doing app2sd, i have like +50 apps installed, which is more than enough for my liking, and 17 mb free in /data partition.

Most probably I'll be staying with this rom, so far I'm liking it a lot, and even though Dude's roms are great I think I'm an "update addict" xD Finally I have to congratulate Cyanogen for putting together these excellent roms.

hey idk if anyone has a problem and idk if its the rom or not but my phone keeps turning off at random times and i am unable to turn it back on unless i plug it into the charger and watch the orange light turn on or i remove the battery for a minute and put it back in...does anyone know how to fix that problem cuz idk where else to look :(
[G1 Android Development] beast.in.black:
Get it from http://n0rp.chemlab.org/android/update-cm-3.6.7.2-signed.zip

For anyone else who wants older ROMs, Cyanogen's naming convention is "update-cm-<VERSION>-signed.zip" for the ROMs, so you can simply get it from "http://n0rp.chemlab.org/android/update-cm-<VERSION>-signed.zip".

I've attached a shell script that I use to fetch CyanogenRom mods. It fetches the rom of the required version, renames it to update.zip, and puts it on your SD card all ready for you to flash.

Unzip the attachment, push it to your phone (on to /system/sd) and then all you need to do is call it like so (I do this from within terminal on the phone, so I don't need to connect the phone to a computer):

/system/sd/getcyan <VERSION>

Eg: To get 3.6.7.2 you would simply run:

/system/sd/getcyan 3.6.7.2

and then you would reboot your phone in recovery mode, flash the update.zip that the script writes to your phone, and then you are good to go :)

Enjoy in good health :D

[G1 Android Development] beast.in.black:
Works fine on Gentoo Linux for me. What's the error that adb throws at you?

I assume you're on windows(tm), since you talked about drivers, so:

1) Which SPL are you using? DangerSPL requires a different driver, IIRC

2) Any windows updates installed since the last time adb worked for you?

3) Check your firewall settings

Cyanogen,

I just had my first issue in quite a while where the phone was behaving anomalously slowly. Nothing seemed to be going on in adb logcat, but top indicated that even while doing "nothing" the system_server process was using 40-50% CPU. I used Advanced Task Manager to shut down running applications, which seemed to have no effect. Switching screens was choppy, pulling down the notification bar was rough, etc.

After a reboot, everything is normal again. While the phone is idle, system_server idles at 0% sleeping, rather than high CPU running. If this happens again, is there any useful information I can gather? I'm not much of an Android developer, but am a software developer in my day job. My understanding is that system_server is a collection of various Android internal threads, so if there's any way I can grab info that'll help you determine what's going on, I'm happy to.

For those people who are seeing truly abysmal battery performance, a process stuck at crazy high processor utilization like that could be (part of) an explanation.
[G1 Android Development] ttabbal:
I liked this idea, so I upgraded it a little for my uses. :)

This version also downloads the MD5 signature and compares it before renaming to /sdcard/update.zip. This way, you can be sure what you are flashing is what you think you are flashing. I've been meaning to automate that for myself for some time now, and your post pushed me that direction. So thanks! :D

Then you haven't looked very hard. Yay!! I can be a douche too!!

Try charging your phone to 100%, then unplug and turn it off. Chances are your LED will be orange (indicating that its not a full charge). Let it charge until the LED is green (mine took about 2 hrs over USB), then boot up your p hone. You should notice better battery life after its properly calibrated.

Someone else posted this earlier, so if you find the post, all credit goes to them.

Just want to report that I setup linux-swap on my phone at 28MB and swappiness of 20 and its SO fast now. It was fast before, but damn its fast now.

Thanks so much Cyan!
[G1 Android Development] Karolis:
My 2 cents into all this getcyan business.

After you've pushed the script to your phone, and chmod'ed it, you can also do this:

adb remount

adb shell

cd /system/bin

ln -s /system/sd/getcyan getcyan

Now you can launch getcyan command from anywhere and you don't have to type-in the full path (/system/sd/getcyan)

By the way, it works great from adb shell, but doesn't if I run it directly from the phone :(

And maybe we need a separate thread for this? :)
[G1 Android Development] free_man:
same problem here...the rom was very fast and had no problems for a day or so....but after that the phone just reboots itself for no reason then it takes a long time to boot so long that its beter to remove the batery and boot again and when is finally on It might run or the screen might just freeze and again you have to remove the battery. so those are my problems: reboot for no reason and

quite often the screen freezes no matter what application is running bluetooth, a online radio or wathever and you have to remove battery.
[G1 Android Development] osho741:
For people having unexplained shutdowns I think you would find more help with a logcat. If you don't have adb set up there is now a windows based app in the applications section of this forum that will create them easily. I think logcats are the best way to show people what is going on with your phone.

Edit: here is the link to the newly developed windows based android phone manager

You're absolutely right, i was just typing up a post with those very same instructions :) In fact, i use an "afterflash" script that i run, which creates symlinks to bash, getcyan & ssh; you run this after you flash the new ROM, since the flash will erase the softlinks.

Also, I was posting a revised version of the getcyan script incorporating ttabbal's md5sum check (i found some peculiarities with the output of md5sum, so was testing it to get the correct result), but I'll take your advice and just open a fresh thread for it :)

I'll update this thread with the link to the new getcyan thread.

I'll join you over there too. :) For the symlink stuff, I use this trick: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=538830

That way, anything I put in /system/sd/bin (linked to /usr/bin) is in the path by default and I don't need to fuss with the main directories. My userinit.sh mounts the directory on every boot, including after a reflash. Best way I've found to deal with this sort of thing.

I hope the md5sum stuff helps people. Cyano is always telling people to check it, and this makes it brain dead easy.

Thanks for the pointer. I'll be sure to fire ddms up when/if I see the condition repeat and see if I can get anything useful, stack trace, something.
