Hi!

Im having some troubles flashing the CyanogenMod ROM.

I do as i have always done: enter fastboot, wipe, apply and the reboot.

After reboot, the phone is stuck at the HTC Magic screen, and nothing happens until i take out the battery. All i can do is flash another ROM, which is not a cyanogen ROM.

Im using the RAv 1.2.1 revocery image, and have been using that before when succesfully flashing to cyanogen. I have tried a number of different versions of the ROM, but all of them come up whit the same problem.

So if anyone can help me, i would be really pleased, cause this is getting really annoying
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] AnDruid:
I upgraded without a wipe from 4.1.2 . I too am getting a GooglePartner FC everytime I boot.

But the browser/market etc seem to be working fine otherwise. Though I could not load anything in Opera, wonder what is wrong there.

Is HTC Keyboard the same as the one in which you can enter special chars and numerals after long press. Seems to be working for me.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
Googlepartner causes FC's here as well. Just removed the apk, didn't see any need for it anyway. Can always push it back if necessary. So far no problems while it's gone :D

4.1.8 kernel is broken, making my cell phone slow as hell, tested on 4.0.4, 4.1.2.1 and 4.1.8, with 4.1.7 kernel all work like it should work.

btw. This is normal that 4.0.4 rom have only 3 desktops?

EDIT:

OpenGL problems solved by kernel 4.1.9.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
We need the latest config file first - hopefully njakobs gets a second to post it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] njakobs:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
Thanks again :)

EDIT:

4.9.1.2 update is up.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
thanks everyone for the update. will try it now. 4.1.8 was running pretty smooth for me. hopefully 4.1.9.2 is even better.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
Seems decent. It doesnt like my Enoch theme though - grrr.

i switched to gChrome
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
Wrong file name on the update.

will be posting bugs here if i find any.

first boot : came in to the system and got googlepartner setup and Touch Input FC.

rebooting.

2nd reboot : not getting any signal for GSM and such. googlepartner setup FC'ed once.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
have to wipe if going from stable to experimental build. make a nandroid backup. you will be able to come back if the experimental fails for u.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
Hahaha. Thanks for catching that. I do get a bit lysdexic ;) sometimes.

HTC Keyboard

Ok guys. for those who have problem with the HTC keyboard/Touch Interface FC-ing.

I managed to get it working for now.

what I did was,

go to setting > Applications > Manage Applications

find Touch Input and open it. click uninstall.

when its done, go to

Settings > Locale and text

Check if you have Touch Input there.

the correct result should be only "Android Keyboard" listed there.

Next, reboot into recovery and reflash the ROM and the port-32A update.

Then touch input will work again.

Note : if you have custom words saved, it will all be wiped clean and you gotta start over. A pain to get the words back in, especially when you are like me (usually text in other language).

But I prefer this over Android Keyboard.

Thanks to bcrook for the help on this one :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xiutian:
Keyboard didn't work for me in 4.1.8 but it does in 4.1.9.

Found that there is no photo frame widget in 4.1.9.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cbaltzer:
Mine's taking an unusually long time to boot.. In fact, I haven't gotten past the Rogers logo yet. Anyone else with this problem?

4.1.9.2 Core and Kernel

Edit: re-flashed and it seems to be okay now. Must've mixed up the ROMs or something.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jokeyrhyme:
I certainly don't mean to patronise anyone, but I wonder if those of you having problems with the HTC IME keyboard are actually selecting it properly for input. Having it enabled in the Locale settings is not enough to actually start using it. You also may need to long-press on an input field and choose your input method.

I've never actually had the HTC IME keyboard appear by default after a wipe, I've always had to manually select it via this method.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hengsin:
Going from 4.1.7 to 4.1.9.2 without wipe, works great except one interesting issues. All the application that I install using the android market application survive the upgrade but the applications that I've restore using Astro ( when going from 4.1.2 to 4.1.7 with wipe ) need reinstallation.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] str4vag:
Wasn't the problem for me.

HTC IME selected : FC every 2 or 3 seconds

Android Keyboard : No issues

So I did my steps to fix it with bcrook's help. Will post the link in a second.

I've been running CM 4.1.8 with the 4.1.6 32A kernel - for some reason 4.1.7 refused to boot.

Updated to 4.1.9.2 this morning (over CM 4.1.8) and it seems to be working just fine. Bootup time has improved too.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] slamkk:
Now running CM 4.1.2.1 ...

Can i install 4.1.9.2 over or should I wipe ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
in theory since you are on an experimental build already, you shouldnt need to wipe. but at this point it seems everyone is having different issues. best thing for you to do is make a nandroid backup and try it yourself.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] apacheo:
Hm, it seems the 4.1.9.2 kernel is making com.google.zxing.client.android crash.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
Is it just me, or do all Rogers users have to manually enter their APN settings every time after a wipe?

It doesn't really bother me, but it's just an XML file right?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] FernandoMiguel:
i have to do it with any GSM SIM with my Magic.

maybe SPL feature?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] str4vag:
i have to enter my APN settings manually everytime as well. but then i'm on a small carrier.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Radix999:
Well I get googlepartner fc's all the time too.. and wifi tether is still broken (has been since 4.1 really), and now I've just discovered that BT is broken in this build too.. I get 'a2dp write access' errors when I try and play music over BT and it causes my phone to slow to a crawl - though it doesn't produce any errors on the phone at all (but I get no sound).

Might try a nandroid backup and wipe and clean install and see if it helps.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
hey Radix, tethering works fine for me. i am on 4.1.9.2 using the latest kernel port that bcrook posted in the first post, i think 4.1.8 kernel. TT just released his kernel update for 4.9.1.2.

i am tethering right now. tested on both wifi tether and bluetooth tether using the "wireless tether for root users" app. i dont get that google partner FC either. maybe you should consider wipe and fresh install.

edit- the only time i get FC is when i am done tethering and i hit the End Tether and itll FC and close the app. which idont mind since i want to close the app anyways after i am done tethering.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] apacheo:
I'm using the same and BT tether is fine for me (although I notice under CM I only get 50kBps throughput, compared to 150+ using Ra's).

Equally here, Tether FC's when I try to deactivate it, but that's fine... don't need it anymore when I'm closing it! :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] maxqc:
With CM ROMs, I always have to re-enter me too.

With some other ROMs it's OK though.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] str4vag:
hmm. if wiping and reflasing the rom fixes all issues, i will do it.

NguyenHuu,

can you upload anything to picasa or youtube?

because this is what the GooglePartnerSetup is suppose to facilitate. without it working, you get "retry in 1 minute" error when trying to upload.

hmm, try looking for HTC_IME instead. and apk should be listed there for the HTC keyboard. names i know for it is HTC_IME and Touch Input.

Prolly there are other names too

Dammit dyslexia lol.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Tom Servo:
Google Partner Setup that stuff that sets up the phone after a wipe? Works just fine here. Also, HTC IME also works fine. Let's see stability and random music playback.

Did wipe, then install CM, then kernel, then reboot.

Not a problem with the port. I would check the original Cyanogen experimental ROM thread to see if it is a known issue. Also, check cyanogens google code site.

I believe the alarm thing is a language issue.

I believe IM only works on T-Mobile networks.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Radix999:
Wow.. what a difference a wipe makes...

I've been upgrading from each successive version and had things not quite right because of it.. wifi tether stopped working for me around the 4.1.1 versions.. and recently bluetooth a2dp wasn't working and I was getting fc's on googlepartner setup on 4.1.9.2..

So I decided to wipe and reinstall. Backup for Root Users actually WORKED this time.. so got all my apps and settings back nicely which was awesome and saved me heaps of time.

Now before wipe I had done an uptime (when the phone was doing prettymuch nothing unusual and it was)

X:\>adb shell uptime

23:45:37 up 11:03, load average: 4.04, 4.23, 4.21

After a clean wipe and reinstall of all the apps.. I got:

X:\>adb shell uptime

15:18:31 up 1:47, load average: 0.04, 0.27, 0.64

Umm.. that's crazy!

Definitely recommend wiping for those with issues.

For the record I had to reboot twice even after wiping to get things working.

Power widget came up blank at first.. rebooted and it fixed it.

Then browser fc'd on first run, rebooted and it worked fine after that.

Oh.. and Wifi tether, bluetooth a2dp and everything else is working wonderfully for me now! ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
I second that. I finally succumbed to wiping and it has made everything so much better. My Enoch 1.3.4 theme wasnt even working before a wipe.

4.1.9 (yay, got it!!) is very fast. Cyanogen said he was going to work on stabilizing - dont think we're too far off from another stable branch.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ep0niks:
Running 4.1.9.2 on a Magic and it's the fastest build so far, I don't use a theme yet so overall phone is blazing fast (way faster than my previous BB Pearl or friend's iPhone).

I had to reboot twice also after patching with 32a port patch. Everything seems to work fine so far..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hakeem9:
I get this error on very first boot. Doesn't really matter as I have no intention of using compcache on a 32A device, but makes me wonder if something screwy is going on with the kernel:

I//system/bin/sh( 50): --- Welcome to Android/CyanogenMod!

I//system/bin/sh( 50): vm.page-cluster = 0

I//system/bin/sh( 50): --- Executing firstboot.sh

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] str4vag:
wiping huh? i might try that soon..but i guess i'll wait for 4.1.10.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
Probably because you dont have a swap partition on your SD card. Not sure though - i dont use compcache.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jokeyrhyme:
As per Radix's suggestion I went and performed my first wipe since embarking on the current experimental branch. Had to reflash the whole ROM and the kernel again anyway as the phone refused to boot after a simple wipe (very odd).

Anyhow, phone is all working as well as it was before the wipe (after wrestling with HTC IME for a few minutes).

My problem with rotation / orientation is still present. I have reverted to using my phone with the Orientation checkbox left un-ticked.

Steps to reproduce problems:

1. Tick the Orientation checkbox in Settings.

2. Return to the Home screen.

3. Rotate phone all the way around in 90 degree steps, pausing for 5 seconds each time, and trying various speeds and "enthusiasm".

4. Observe that screen contents never reflect device orientation (still locked to original portrait mode at all times).

5. Play Buka (an application that forces landscape mode).

6. Exit Buka and observe that screen contents are now locked to landscape.

7. Repeat step 3 in order to try to get back to portrait mode.

8. Observe that at no point did the screen automatically switch back to the desired portrait mode.

9. Un-tick the Orientation checkbox in Settings.

10. Observe that we reach the desired portrait mode again, yay!

Note that I've also tried rebooting the phone after changing the setting. Nothing helps. This isn't a deal-breaker for me, but it does mean I'll never be able to type in landscape mode without using a landscape-only application to first manually switch modes. This is a shame because the keys are much larger than those in portrait mode. As it stands it is so incredibly inconvenient that I'm leaving it un-ticked.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hengsin:
I'm running 4.1.9.2 but can't reproduce the problem using your steps above. Are you using any theme ? Also, it could be cause by widgets, try removing some from your home screen.

Camera/Camcorder not working (force close)?

Hi. After wiping my phone using recovery-RAv1.2.1H.img, I installed the CyanogenMod ROM 4.0.4 (filename: update-cm-4.0.4-signed.zip), then I installed the latest kernel v4.1.9.2, I downloaded it from the 1st post. Out of the box, the camera and camcorder do not work (force closes, process com.android.camera). Am I doing anything wrong? Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

My phone is a 32A Roger's/HTC branded magic with engineering-SPL flashed.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] farbird:
htc_ime.apk not working on the build ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jokeyrhyme:
You should not be using the latest kernel. You ought to be using a kernel that matches the version you are using. Since you are using Cyanogen 4.0.4, you really should be using the kernel with the same version.

Kernel 4.1.9.2 is for a 32A Magic flashed with Cyanogen 4.1.9.2.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
Not entirely true. I use the most advanced kernel with older builds all the time.

Unless there have been ramdisk changes from the version in question and the newest kernel, there should be no issues. Even if the ramdisk changes, who knows if it would do anything.

Now, the newest kernel may be less stable and therefore not a great suit for those looking for a perfectly stable build but I havent seen any of the issues.

I have a little complaint. The top dragable notification bar has a problem with displaying the date. On mine it always says the date in this format "<year> <month> <day>".

Any comments on this?

What is your actual Locale set to? Mine is set to English (Australia) and I see "15 September 2009" in the expanded Notifications bar.
