[G1 Android Development] Paging Dr B:
Well you dont gain anything, but I guess im also not completely understanding what you're asking. I only installed the new 1.6htc recovery img because i wanted to try out cyans new rom. IMO it would be best to wait for JAC 1.6 release, however there is no telling when that will be. So i've been playing with other roms then come back to X after i get tired of my sh!t not working.
[G1 Android Development] DarkPontiac:
except the buttons on the video player.... anyone know how to fix that in the mean time? I'm using 1.4r3 for now since it works on there but want to go back to 1.5r4 if there is a way to fix the video player...
[G1 Android Development] bugarrun:
Yes I tend to agree with you. I always try out the latest roms for a day or two. however I always end up using this xrom because there is nothing that beats it. It is worth our while to wait for the next release.

Regarding the ferrari and toyota issue, I am a proud owner of a toyota for the past 9 years. It has never given me any trouble and still going strong. So unlike a Ferrari, you should also look at stability in the long term. ;)
[G1 Android Development] senaia:
Lolz at all the car comparisons

As long as nobody describes xrom as ford or fiat, I'm happy :)

FORD fix or repair daily

FIAT fix it again tomorrow

:P

Lock Screen LAAAAAAAG

From the screen being off, sometimes it takes several pushes of the menu button (like 9 or 10) to have the screen come back on. Why is this?

im running

xROM 1.5r4

Cyanogen recovery 1.4

Haykuro spl

thanks for anyone who can help!

Set your min CPU in the user.conf to 245760 instead of 128000
[G1 Android Development] krumbman0wnz:
Can you post your user.conf? i wouldnt call myself a newb, but all the user.conf i can find are for hero roms, and im not sure if all the configurations work with a non hero rom.

thanks
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Yeah, I'll post something in a little bit for you

XRom in General

Wow Dr B- If I were him, I would totally avoid going through the hassle of "trying" out another Rom- I am thoroughly Behind Jac and Manups masterpiece-Oh- and all Mike Taylor's "spot on" advice- Check out my new bootscreen below-Chris

PS- added a second one I like

"Looking for a more complete, faster, and more stable Rom? Fuggedaboutit!":D
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
Mike, I'm running your user.conf and have my min CPU set to that speed, but I also have this issue from time to time. But, I'm still using r3... Just an FYI.
[G1 Android Development] here.david:
With xROM v1.5r4, I also change swap 28 to 60 and have not had the lag yet. In ubuntu 9.04:

To change user.conf in /system/sd

(move file to desktop change it with 'gedit' save and put back)

adb remount

adb pull /system/bin/user.conf /home/david/Desktop

cd /home/david/Desktop

gedit user.conf

"edit what you want then save"

adb shell

su

mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3

rm -r /system/bin/user.conf

exit

exit

adb remount

adb push /home/david/Desktop/user.conf /system/bin

adb shell reboot

1.5r4 last rom

I have been watching Xrom twitter and see all the talk of Hero upgrade and the working on of Blur iu. Have not seen anything on the great Xrom rom. Will there be an upgrade on 1.5r4 (new market and stuff) or are we staying at 1.5r4 (which is still better than any other rom out there).
[G1 Android Development] senaia:
JAC has a few personal things going on at the moment, give him time, you'll be pleasantly surprised :)
[G1 Android Development] trclev:
Oh, I am not rushing. Love this rom and like always just looking forward to the future. Even without upgrade, this rom rocks. Take your time. Think I may just have been jealouse of hero and blur getting time.. bad me bad me
[G1 Android Development] mattguzman73:
I also did the, what I thought was an upgrade, to Cyan's 1.6 4.1.99 mod and am NOT happy with it at all. I too am going back to xRom. By far it is the best I have used.

I was having the lag issue as well when bringing it back on after in "sleep mode". I would have to hit the menu many times it seemed to get it back on, but it looks like there is a way to fix that. If someone could point me in the direction I need to go to fix that, I would really appreciate it.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I've been doing a lot of tuning with BFS and I've come up with some settings that I think will help make 1.5r3 run a lot better. If there is interest I will post something on it to help tide you guys over.
[G1 Android Development] here.david:
I change swap to 60 from 28, turn off animations and "end" button to "home"..BTW, I found all listed using the search...:cool:
[G1 Android Development] jaaronmoody:
would love to try some of your work out, thanx for helping out. this rom runs great on its own, what type of improvement are you referring to?
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
When 1.5r3 was released I hadn't done much testing with BFS so I kept the normal settings for the user.conf. By bumping up some of the compache settings, changing the swapiness, and a few other things I can make it run a bit faster and multitask a lot better. I need to do a little testing to make sure it will work but it has made a difference on the other BFS ROMs I have tried it on. I was waiting for 1.6 to add the new settings but I might just do it now to give people something new to play with.
[G1 Android Development] jaaronmoody:
awesome, any improvements are furthering the whole project.... which is expanding VERY rapidly, i might add. I just keep seeing all the new roms and devs, but the one i keep coming back to is this one, because it all works REALLY well. some of the other roms do some things nice, or look cool, but don't have the whole package. thanks again.. let's have at it!! Thanx again. I LOVE ANDROID!!!
[G1 Android Development] twflys:
I agree, I've been running every version of Hero since it came out. The only thing I really miss is the hero calendar- But the Xrom is delightfully fast and smooth. Which is more than worth the eye candy you get from Hero.

Can't wait for the donut version.....
[G1 Android Development] eessel:
you don't have to miss the hero calendar too much. Just look up pure calendar widget on the market and look at the grid one. I do believe that will fulfil your hero calendar wishes. Or at least i hope so. Lol. Hope that helps! :)
[G1 Android Development] Tydiz:
Subliminal advertising :D

Check that out...my app's screenshots, that are up on the new market, are ballin' xRom in the background :) Subliminal advertising anyone? :D

Performance Tweaks for 1.5r3

I know everyone has been waiting for 1.6 to come out so I thought I would share some performance tweaks that I have for 1.6 before it comes out. The only difference between 1.5r4 and 1.5r3 is that r4 doesn't have BFS enabled. JAC put that build out because r3 was having conflicts between my setPriority.sh script and BFS. To take advantage of these tweaks you need to have BFS enabled. Don't use this user.conf on 1.5r4. It will slow your phone down. Here are the steps if you want to try this out.

1. If you don't already have one, setup a linux-swap partition that is 64MB. It will work with a 32MB swap partition but it won't perform as well. With no swap partition you will only see a minimal improvement.

2. Install 1.5r3 (if you are not already running it).

3. Open terminal emulator and run the following commands

su
rwsystem
rm /system/bin/setPriority.sh

4. Copy the attached user.conf to your /system/bin/ directory. If you don't know how there are steps in this post. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=4303987&highlight=user.conf#post4303987

5. Reboot

You probably won't notice a huge increase in speed. It will be faster but xROM is already really fast. However, your phone won't slow down when you have a couple of apps running. In fact it is really hard to get it to lag with these settings. Let me know what you guys think.
[G1 Android Development] senaia:
Mike to the rescue again, on my way to work so will give it a go when I get there... looks like an upgrade from 1.4 lol

Have you changed the minimum cpu from 128000 or whatever was causing many presses of menu before it would unlock?

edit--- Ignore that question, yes it does :) runs smooth, grats Mike

Edit-- also, do you know what this would be like with 96mb swap? Using amon-ra recovery and feel like being lazy if you know what I mean :D
[G1 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
Will this also be the case for the (memory crippled) 32B-devices? After (heavy) browsing and such I very often get the reloading-UI-stuff...
[G1 Android Development] sacredsoul:
Can this be used on the cm 4.1.999?
[G1 Android Development] senaia:
definate improvement there Mike, previously best benchPi score was just under 12 seconds and that was a one time only thing, now closer to bottom end of 11 seconds frequently. nice work :)

edit--- ok, so after a fw hours of testing... still quick, but same old problem of no notification sound, is this just me or can anybody else confirm and suggest a fix? setpriority has been removed before anybody suggests it, and i have also been into notification settings to basically show the phone where the tone is... would the other method replacing the a2sd script work or is there something else i can try?

@sacredsoul

Try it, it should work fine, but i'm not too sure. i know last time i tried a Mike user.conf on cyan build, it dropped boot time by 12 seconds. with mike.. you're always in safe hands :). make sure you back up your current user.conf first just in case things don't go well. you may also want to consider changing powersave bias to 200 as per cyan's reccomendation ages ago. Be a man, take the plunge and let us know what you think :D if all else fails, just copy your old one back, no harm done :D
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
96MB will work. It will be slightly slower but not terrible. I've tested with 32, 64, 96, and 128. 64 is the best.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Yes, it will. It helped make Hero run faster than a lot of cupcake ROMs on the G1.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Yeah, it's not much different than the one that got converted in the thread that zimphishmonger started.
[G1 Android Development] saprano614:
Hey mike do we know if the new update is going to be based on the donut1.6 release. Or is it gonna to have any of the new stuff for donut? I am waiting patiently for the new xrom cause this is the best rom out there.
[G1 Android Development] blueheeler:
Please stop teasing us with talk of an update! Please!

Everytime you do, I get a little moist "down there".

:)
[G1 Android Development] alritewhadeva:
wow lol. It'll be out when its out :)
[G1 Android Development] blueheeler:
Yeah, I know.

And I'd rather be patient and have xROM continue it's stable tradition.

It's just been one of those days. I woke up this morning with a feeling something was gonna happen with xROM today, so I've been checking this thread way too much. But turns out I was right ... Mike issued his tweak. My poor little G1 didn't quiet know what to do without me mucking around with it so much. It's actually jealous that I'm spending some much needed time with the dog!

BTW, thanks Mike.

I have noticed a difference.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Yes, it is based off of donut.
[G1 Android Development] saprano614:
Sweet I am so excited. I can't wait to see what is in store
[G1 Android Development] unthinkablehero:
You are the best mike... thanks. And the speed it gives is noticable. At least to me. This will tide me over until JACs/Manups 1.6 release... can't wait!!!!!!
[G1 Android Development] markimar:
I know this has been asked a hundred times but any updates coming our way?
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
A watched pot never boils. All of you should go play with some other ROMs if you're really aching for a flash... I recommend JACxHEROskiv2.2 to start.
[G1 Android Development] lethal:
I love this rom! it rocks!
[G1 Android Development] maxkid86:
Is there any chance of making the new 1.6 available for MT3G?
[G1 Android Development] senaia:
I think JAC is working on making it compatible but can't be sure. If not then you could always wait for the port to enjoy JAC's masterpiece
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
JacHeroSki has dual support so there is a pretty good chance that he will include the same method for xROM. I'll ask him about it the next time I talk to him.
[G1 Android Development] Conundrum68:
First time xROM flash

Came from JacHeroski 2.2r4 to xROM 1.5r4 and I'm very impressed. Fast, looks beautiful, completely stable. Outstanding job.
[G1 Android Development] cmsweet21:
yea this rom is the most stable for me.. ^^

its just that, i think we need to update this for more sweets :D
[G1 Android Development] Droid536:
"Try not" to flame me. Apparently you want to if you have to 'try' not to, so why hold back now?

Yeah, well to not 'bog down' your thread I'll just edit the original post then.
[G1 Android Development] slimster:
I will try not to flame you......but it appears to me you need to read the q&a sections. Do some research and post general questions where they belong so these threads don't get bogged down with very basic questions. everything you need to know can be answered in the q&a sections and if after doing some reading you can't find an answer then post your questions in the appropriate section. Thanks

Stereo Bluetooth issue

I did Mike's tweak, going from r4 to r3. As far as I can tell, everything works fine, except that now I am not able to get my stereo bluetooth headset to work. It's called a Bluetooth Spider but that's probably irrelevant. The regular Bluetooth voice headset for calls works fine, and when I turn off bluetooth in settings and turn the music player on, music does play through the phone's speaker. I just looked through a number of posts that may or may not be relevant (remove set priority.txt/audio notifications?). I also did fix_permissions. I'm clueless. Thanks to any & all.
[G1 Android Development] BrutalHoe:
wow way to b anal about it man, why not help and give a link whats it to u a big deal he said he's a noob jees i don't understand people like you.

But yea looks sweet about to flah this puppy.
[G1 Android Development] snakebitezz:
seriously dude dont be a nazi **** tell him this is not the right place to ask and then give a link to where to ask and a link to the answer if available since you such a damn pro!!
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Try reflashing the radio. Can you get other bluetooth devices to work?
[G1 Android Development] slimster:
Very productive post......i failed to see where YOU posted your link to help the guy out.....??.....i'm sure you just forgot to post one right? At least my post was informing him of the rules the MODS set up, not myself; and i pointed him in the right direction. if you think i lacked in helping him out feel free to help him yourself. No......, you'd rather just leave a post critisizing my post and then leave a VERY "helpful" post 'I'm gonna flash this puppy'. well, i for one thank you for informing us that you are going to flash this. what a waste of space
[G1 Android Development] slimster:
just like i told the other chump who was critisizing how i chose to help that individual; it is the rules of this forum to post in the correct area if you need help with a problem. why didn't you post a link to help him out? it is no wonder why all the talented dev's are slowly leaving this site.....and it appears that the mods have left too by the looks of the way this site is going downhill. you are a punk who has chosen to critique me instead of help; your post is useless and pointless. if you feel that person needed more help why don't you take the time to post a link for him and walk him through it? i choose not to hold anyone's hand when a simple search will find the answers. so mr cool guy "snakebitezz" (lol, really cool by the way! lol) why don't you try contributing to this site instead of helping grind it into the ground?
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
How about both of you noobs STFU. Leave the sarcasm and general asshole-ish type behavior to guys like me. Now let your *****y argument die.
[G1 Android Development] senaia:
Guys chill out, if you want to moan at each other then do it in PM, keep the forum clear of junk and maybe talented devs won't leave. Basic principle, if somebody asks, point them in the right direction and ask politely to post in the right thread. If you can't be nice, don't post. Everybody makes mistakes, and everybody was new at some point. How did you get to know what you know? You probably asked and searched, same as everybody else did when they were new. Keep the forum free of junk please

@droid536

If you're still having problems, PM me, we'll sort it out

Ps I realise this post is kind of ironic, I'm moaning that people are moaning, but at least I'm offering help

Edit

Lol uansari, you beat me to it :)
[G1 Android Development] wbexpress:
Hi Mike, 3 things:

-Was I supposed to get the box with the yellow arrow in recovery (for about half a minute) when I reflashed the radio ? That's what happened at first, then it did reboot, and I assume it took?

-Every other machination works: most telling, it still works on the G1, so it is not the headset itself. The bluetooth telephone headset works, and anything I plug into the jack works (regular earbuds and in the car).

-Did you read my last email:D?
[G1 Android Development] enatefox:
Loving the ROM. Thanks JAC and Manup
[G1 Android Development] BrutalHoe:
if i was at my pc at the time i would actually find the links so w/e.

Just wanted to show a pic of the app draw so no one can say i used there stuff lol....:)

[G1 Android Development] kingskidd268:
LoL..... I know who you are talking about... lol. I like the App Draw on this build the best...
[G1 Android Development] unthinkablehero:
JAC, any suggestions as to what I can do? My internal memory is at 38 megs, second partition is not being read... I really would like to use this rom. I've tried what everyone has suggested from going from 1.1 to 1.2 with and without wiping... i've redone my partitions... i really don't know what to do. I'm at a loss here. I've gone back to 1.1 and I have 74 megs of internal memory and my second partition is being read. Anything you can suggest? Thanks man.
[G1 Android Development] RaQHoliday:
I flashed this just to check it out earlier.

Looks frickin' SWEET.

If I wasnt' spoiled on Hero I'd definitely have kept it. =]

[G1 Android Development] dav1boy:
im pretty sure i know as well....lol.... call it a direct shot to the rib cage ;) jk guys. great job with the theme on this manup. as for those missing twitter from hero. get twidroid from the market. yeah you dont get the nice widget but the app has better user experience then actually hero one imo.
[G1 Android Development] trill12:
just flashed this on. was tired of hero and its non-practicality. im loving it so far.
[G1 Android Development] truthkilla:

also twidgit lite is not to shabby also ;)

[G1 Android Development] stogchris81:
Pardon my ignorance manup456...but what is an auto-rotate widget?
[G1 Android Development] Paging Dr B:
toggles auto-rotate on and off for those times when you dont want it to auto-rotate.

:)
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
Any word on whether the Donut Power Widget will replace the current widgets in upcoming builds? ;)

One touch GPS rocks, and the wifi seems to work consistently with it, whereas the wifi often doesn't connect using these widgets until I go into wireless settings and it then updates the list of available wifi networks.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I can't quote it because it looks like the mods deleted it but that post about me cumming to that persons bed with them was a little creepy. I hope it wasn't a dude.

Looks like systemforce by prash, that guy's graphics are second only to manup
[G1 Android Development] jmon777:
yeah i reported that. it was very creepy and poorly written
[G1 Android Development] senaia:
ok, this is gonna make mike scream like crazy cos we've already spent hours trying to get my problem sorted away from the forum.

basically, my problem is the already covered no notification sounds. so far, i've reflashed 1.5r3, removed setpriority, changed a2sd and applied mikes latest tweaks, and notificarions worked eventually, but now after adding nothing they've gone again, and it's really irritating me

ok, in the following order, this is what i've done so far

flashed from 1.4r3 to 1.5r3 for mikes new tweaks, no notifications

removed setpriority, no notifications

changed a2sd, notifications worked,

2 days later, no notifications

wiped phone, repartitioned SD card using Amon-Ra's 1.2.2 recovery, installed 1.5r3, no notifications

removed setpriority, no notifications

changed a2sd, no notifications

applied mikes new user.conf, no notifications

realised i'm a lysdexic dumbass (very important step)

chmod on a2sd 774 instead of 744 like i did... like i said, lysdexic, notifications worked

and now i'm back to nothing..... and thats only about 2 maybe 3 days, rebooted phone and still nothing, did the usual "play the notification tone" that hasn't worked... so now i'm completely stumped...

i'm starting to think it has something to do with a widget i'm using... beautiful widget pack 2, sms widget.... anybody else using this and has no notifications? it's the only think i've added recently

hope somebody out there has a solution, and i really can't be any more specific about what i've done, that is everything exactly as done, even mike lol'd at my lysdexic chmod :D
[G1 Android Development] mike105105:
I had problems with notifications as well, I finally got it working again by pulling the card, plugging it into the computer, and running fsck on both the ext3 and fat32 partitions. Then for good measure I booted the phone into recovery and ran the ext repair from the menu.

Mike
[G1 Android Development] enatefox:
You guessed the clock alright. In case anyone's interested, here's the sauce and I got around 60 now thanks to this. Since I'm running Android on a port (Kaiser phone), I can't remount the system folder rw so I symlinked /system/app/AlarmClock.apk to /sdcard/conf/AlarmClock.apk and all I need to do is just overwrite the clock on the SD card with the one I want, readd the clock to the home screen and instant face joy. And not the weird kind that involves cumming to beds and reported posts though that sounds hilarious.
