I'm not having ANY of the problems others have mentioned, and I'm still on r2, mainly because I'm not having any issues, but also cuz I don't want MyFaves...is it uninstallable?

As for battery, try charging it to full, then turn off the phone till the led goes from red to green. Then turn on the phone and you should get more accurate battery readings. I read this in another thread somewhere and it works for me. I think sometimes rebooting throws off the battery readings.

Anyway, wifi works, YouTube works, applications all work, rom is smooth and fluid...no lag at all. I'm running the original user.conf with no changes.

Thanks for all your hard work devs. It is much appreciated. :)
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Hold up dude. Go into the app manager and delete the browser data. I've had that problem before with corrupted book marks. I updated my ROM, restored the bookmarks before I opened the browser and it FCs. Clear the data, open the browser, then try restoring any browser settings you have backed up.

compression/decompression is going to use CPU, a much bigger sap on battery compared to the linux-swap being written to the SD card.
[G1 Android Development] icetomyst:
Nope, I haven't tried it out yet...I'll have to give it a go, thanks for the tip.
[G1 Android Development] madunix:
will u have my first born? =D it worked lol thank you, i JUST realized after i read what u said that this wasn't my first time doing this... i actually FORGOT to just clear the cache n it fixes my problems... lol thanks alot tho.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
No problem. Glad I could help.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Compression does not necessarily equal more battery usage. Keep in mind that writing to Linux Swap is more costly than writing to RAM. The CPU has to work a lot to manage the memory in swap. It has to move files around, keep track of the priority of everything, etc. It all depends on how well written compcache is on which will use more battery. Like I said, 0.6 has some major performance improvements in it. You should at least try it before you make a decision on it.
[G1 Android Development] h.nocturna:
No, no, 2nd step, format sdcard. =/ Iono, I'll try again, because after it did that, I wiped and tried re-formatting, but it wouldn't even let me mount /system/sd/ so I just flashed and it still didn't work, so nandroid came to the rescue...
[G1 Android Development] renegadedj:
im in love with this build. really fast and really stable and really goodlooking. thanks you much. and youtube hq works great. the search function in youtube is fickity tho. it found NO videos for TRON HD. :(

i rebooted and it works fine now. rebooted again and still works. *hiccup* :P
[G1 Android Development] DanDroidOS:
Busybox?

It says it has busybox but I can't find it and I have linux so I can't get adb to work to put it on my phone:( can someone please help me
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Open Terminal Emulator. Type busybox, hit enter

If you want to use ADB on Linux, look at this page. http://www.htc.com/www/support/android/adp.html
[G1 Android Development] psb07158:
Okay guys, seem to be having a problem with this ROM now.

It's with the SDCard, it looks as though Apps2SD isn't running, the internal memory is showing as 38mb free and secondary memory "unavailable".

Everything was fine on 1.1 but now upgrading to 1.3R3 i'm getting this problem.

I've tried reformatting/repartitioning the SDCard, i used the upgrade_fs script in recovery 1.4 to convert it to an ext3 partition, stuck the SDCard in a card reader and my PC see's everything as being fine?

I've wiped/re-installed ROM over and over again, i tried checking lucid -s in Terminal but keep getting errors, so it defo looks as if its not linked.

Just at a loss as to what to do?

SPL - Haykuro's SPL

SDCard - 8GB card, the ext3 partition is ~500mb

Any suggestions would be great, thanks.

Fahd.
[G1 Android Development] h.nocturna:
Same problem here with the same steps.
[G1 Android Development] devsk:
cyanogen had mentioned something about the battery charge indicator in lockscreen being the battery eater, is it possible to get rid of it?
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Open Terminal

su

ls /system/sd/

You should see app, app-private, and dalvik-cache. If you don't then you probably don't have a2sd running. If you do, ls each of those directories and see if anything is in them. If your data is there, there is probably another reason for your memory being low.

What method did you use for creating your partitions? When you wiped and reinstalled, did you also format your ext partition? If not, try that.
[G1 Android Development] kingskidd268:
I took away the luinx swap and to me it is not lagging it slower.... Idk it not the same.
[G1 Android Development] psb07158:
Hi miketaylor00, thanks for the reply. I tried that and got :

"ls: not found" which just re-affirms that it's not working.

Emm, i used Partition Manager to set the Fat32/Ext2 then used upgrade_fs in recovery 1.4 to convert to Ext3. I'll try formatting the ext3 to see if that corrects it, but i did select "repair ext filesystems" in the recovery, does that do the same thing? Sorry if that's a stupid q'.

Thanks,

Fahd.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
The ls command is a part of busybox which makes me think there is a lot more going on with your phone than just the a2sd problem. If the directory didn't exist it would say No such file or directory.

Edit: No, the repair filesystems option does not format it
[G1 Android Development] psb07158:
Hmm, this is weird, i typed in "busybox" into Terminal and it says "busybox : not found"

That shouldn't happen should it?

I have no idea what's gone wrong :-/.
[G1 Android Development] justanothercrowd:
Apps2sd is automatic. There is no need to run anything after to move apps.

If you are in terminal and you run df or mount do you see the /system/sd ext3 partition being mounted?
[G1 Android Development] kingskidd268:
It is true.
[G1 Android Development] amd85:
Since ap2sd is automatic, just wondering what causes the internal memory to go down?

Also anyway to clear cache to get back our use internal mem?
[G1 Android Development] kingskidd268:
Ok i resize my ext3 and put a linux swap and it is back up to speed I see a change. I can go with out battery power than to lose speed. I mean I can give it up because I have the Big Battery....lol
[G1 Android Development] psb07158:
So i formatted my Ext3, wiped, repaired filesystem and flashed back to JACxROM 1.1 - work's flawlessly. No problems with Apps2SD or anything. Busybox is fine in Terminal.

I really do not know why the newer version isn't working for me? Oh well, i'm happy with 1.1, it has everything i need :-).

Thanks again to the creators of the ROM.
[G1 Android Development] trill12:
So im trying to edit the way the launcher looks. Ive found the file in the apk and i modified it to how i like. i set it back, push it to the phone and reboot but the same launcher keeps coming up. any reason why?
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
You should do a nandroid backup and then try upgrading again. If it doesn't work you can always restore your backup.
[G1 Android Development] lelandspencer:
I'm having the same problem as psb07158. No busybox, no Apps2SD. I've flashed and restored it twice.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
It almost sounds like the installer isn't finishing. JAC, is there a log somewhere that would tell any problems that happened during the install?
[G1 Android Development] djhollygrove:
Man!!! This rom is a F*CKIN BEAST!!!! Dammn JAC u did this!!! If I could get the twitter and facebook integration on here.. I would USE THIS ROM EVERYDAY!!! I love iT!!! Just love HERO more
[G1 Android Development] trill12:
nvm, i think i got it. :D

this ***** is fast. i love it.
[G1 Android Development] lelandspencer:
Oh yeah, don't get me wrong, this rom is a beast (it's probably the best "Hero" build we're gonna get) but having Apps2SD and a proper root would be nice.
[G1 Android Development] lelandspencer:
Oh snap, I think I figured out the problem. And it's because I'm an idiot.

@psb07158: Are you using HardSPL?
[G1 Android Development] drewno1:
moderate use of gtalk and sms

battery at 68% , thats about normal for me so no issues
[G1 Android Development] renegadedj:
i'm just checking, and this problem might fix itself, but my lockscreen battery and the battery in the topbar are not synced? maybe they will once i restart the phone c ouple of times and use it for awhile. it seems that hero used to give me wierd battery readouts until i used it for more than two days then it righted itself.

just checking if anyone else noticed this and will it ever be synced or its like that cuz its two different image files in two different apk's?
[G1 Android Development] psb07158:
Hey, no I'm using Haykuro's SPL.
[G1 Android Development] BlackElvis79:
App Request...

This xROM is epic. Is there any chance of getting the old "screenshot" app in 1.4? It comes in handy when the SDK's on the fritz
[G1 Android Development] trill12:
changed my launcher lol.
[G1 Android Development] BlackElvis79:
@ Trill12...

Is that screenie from the SDK or from an app on your device?
[G1 Android Development] trill12:
sdk yo

10 chars
[G1 Android Development] chief2842:
Do I need to have ext3 prior to flashing this rom?
[G1 Android Development] trill12:
FIRST POST

App2SD setup requires the two usual partitions FAT32/EXT2/3/4 and can also support a 3rd swap partition with a small modification to the user.conf file in /system/bin/. I have not found this necessary on the AOSP Roms as of yet
[G1 Android Development] JPongco:
Wifi issue!

Ran into a problem with wifi settings for JACxROM 1.3:

When toggling Wifi off, the phone is stuck on "turning off". I have no way of re-enabling wifi. Only with reboot can wifi resume. Any suggestions on how to remedy this?

Jonathan
[G1 Android Development] :
when the update says -Major speed improvements i have to at least backup and try this rom. but ive never had a snappier ROM than a cyanogen . Not to diss anyone i think all the work on this forum is great and im proud of all of you. keep on kicking ass guys
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
The latest revision corrects this... are you running the first release or 1.3r2/1.3r3?
[G1 Android Development] zole2112:
Thank you for the tip...I formatted, radio, spl, wipe, flash 1.3r3 and wifi...Works! I was also having an issue with data, edge on Att (thought it was Att) finally connected that with the wifi issue and your post about the radio.
[G1 Android Development] mickeyevaii:
Can I flash the JACxROMv1.3r3 from JACxROMv1.2 without wipe?
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
@mickeyevaii

Yes yo can flash from 1.2 without a wipe.

If your still having Wifi issues its not the ROM check your router or modem something because it's not the ROM.
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
It seems like flashing the radio again prior to flashing may resolve the wifi issue. It's probably not the router or modem. I had two G1s, and only one experienced the wifi not connecting issue. The only difference between the two was that I only rooted and flashed radio and danger SPL prior to flashing the rom. I was running updated radio and hard spl on the phone that wouldn't connect.
[G1 Android Development] ryan75:
Something I noticed, when flashing from 1.3r1 to 1.3r2 and 1.3r2 to 1.3r3 without wiping, is that I lost all my audio. Speaker, ringtones, notifications, nothing worked until I formatted my ext3 and reinstalled. Not complaining, just wanted to throw this out there. Both times I did have Volume Control by Rogro82 installed, who knows if this had something to do with it.

Great ROM - looks and performance are both top-notch.
[G1 Android Development] trill12:
ITS A BORING NIGHT. SO I DID THIS. lol.
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
O.k two people had Wifi issues and got back to me saying that the radio or HBOOT Spl was missing so if your having Wifi issues really look into that.

@trill12

Nice widget but I see orange I can fix the widget for you if you want.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
That is the overclock widget. I really want to find out how to make the CPU frequencies different when the screen is off. You can do it with that app but no one else knows how to do it. When the screen is off I set the Min to 128 and the Max to 192. I was thinking about emailing the developer to ask him. Maybe he will tell us if you fix the widget up for him and we can add it to this build.
[G1 Android Development] trill12:
lol i like the widget

but that widget isnt what i changed. the launcher is. bordem yo.
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
@trill12

That small glass box? Thats what you did?
[G1 Android Development] trill12:
yes. complete boredem dude.
[G1 Android Development] trill12:
thanks manup. you made me self-conscious about my work so i took it off lol.
[G1 Android Development] Tylerspilker:
So I'm not sure why, but I cannot get any wifi connection to work after installing this ROM (8/6/09)

It attempts to get an IP, but then it fails. Just says Unsuccessful.

This has been tried on a WEP, WPA, and an unsecured network with no results.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Read a few pages back. The ROM is fine. If you didn't wipe you probably need to. If you did, you might have to do a little more. Just read a little back on the thread.
[G1 Android Development] bigslanki:
still no answer to why cyanogen wallpaper is in this build aye???

when will reboot into recovery be in the power down?
[G1 Android Development] Tylerspilker:
Yeah, I read back, How does one do a radio wipe?

I did the wipe because I was having problems coming from a different ROM. I wanted to clean my settings anyway.

I performed the wipe, flashed, and everything eorks great except for the wifi. Ive tried several different routers which have different settings so I am unsure of where to go from here.

Thanks. ROM looks great by the way coming from JF 1.51

Also, I only see 1.3r2, where do you get r3?
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
You don't wipe the radio.. you just reflash it. It may also be a good time to load the Haykuro SPL if you're not currently on it, though it should work fine with regular hard spl (I think).
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
You have to install the radio again. You can find it here: http://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/

Do you have an ext partition? If so, did you wipe everything off of that? That could be your problem if you had something lingering on there.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
1.3r3 is labeled wrong on the first page. It says r2 but it is really r3. Check the filename after download and it will be correct.
[G1 Android Development] Tylerspilker:
No, I dont use apps2sd. Just a 1 partition sd card
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I would load the hayakuro spl too. And the Cyanogen recovery image if you don't have that. The recovery image is the best thing anyone can do for their phone.
[G1 Android Development] EZ14U2NV:
holy god my battery died twice today two full charges after clean format and wipe with this rom NO programs installed! what gives? anyone else having this issue?
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I can't phase this ROM

Ok, I made a few tweaks to this ROM but I have 18 widgets plus shortcuts on my desktop right now and the ROM is still faster than the JF build I used to be on with no widgets.

Here are the changes I made:

Enabled Backing Swap for Compcache

Set the power save bias to 0

Set the sampling_rate to 1500000

Set the up_threshold to 30

We'll see how my battery survives but performance wise this ROM is a beast.
[G1 Android Development] catracho99:
apps to sd dint work

i have my 2 partition and on this built the room did nit read my apps on my sd i try wipe install and nothing when back to Cyanogen and my app were there, what gives?. Like the looks of the rom tho graphic looks great!
[G1 Android Development] amihov:
About the email client on this rom

I used htc dream from rogers . Is it possible to install the original email cleint from my old rom to this? And if it is how?

Thank you

Alex
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
They probably were in a different folder for some reason. I don't know why that would be. You can copy the app folder to the fat32 portion of the sdcard while on Cyanogen. Then wipe your ext partition and phone memory and install this ROM. Then copy your app folder back to the ext partition. Be careful though, some of the built in apps may be different versions. You don't want to over write them with the wrong version. If you copy your data folder you will get all of your setting for your apps as well.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I don't know anything about the Roger's email client. But in general, you can copy the .apk file to the app folder and it will show up in your apps list after a reboot. If it is a private app it might take more than that. Just because you can install it, that doesn't mean it will work with the ROM. But it is worth a try.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
This may seem like an odd question, but do you often hit Menu once when your phone is locked without actually unlocking the phone. I do it to check the time, see if I have any messages, etc. Someone made a comment earlier in the thread and I'm wondering if this is why some people are having battery issues.

Edit: Cyanogen had a problem with the battery status on the lock screen draining the battery. He disabled it on his mod. If it is a problem here, those who are constantly checking their battery by looking at the lock screen will kill their battery faster than anyone else. I kept the lock screen open until it timed out. Then I would bring it up again and let it time out over and over. I did this about 10 times and lost 10% of my battery in about 2 minutes.

It seems like the battery status widget is also causing my battery to drain. Anyone who is having problems with battery see if you notice a difference. Avoid looking at the lock screen as much as possible. Remove the battery status widget. See if it gets any better.
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
I've alluded to this before, but never saw a response. I've noticed that the service LED doesn't work (i.e. the blinking green showing that the phone is registered to the T-mo network). The only time I get an LED is when I receive a message/email or when I'm charging the phone.

I haven't seen any settings regarding the LED aside from those in the SMS/MMS settings... are these responsible for the service LED?
[G1 Android Development] :
Hi, i've tested JACxHERO and this ROM had german word correction for Keyboard.

I like this JACxROM better, but i'm missing multilanguage dictionary like JACxHERO has and market isn't translated (only english) in this ROM.

EDIT: HTC Keyboard is included, long press left Symbol Button to switch to HTC Keyboard and german dict!

Thanks PAPPL
[G1 Android Development] ThR1LL:
I'm very interested in flashing this ROM. How's the speed compared to cyan 3.9.7?
[G1 Android Development] :
Hi, how can i install the fullscreen browser from JACxHERO?

This would make this ROM perfect!
[G1 Android Development] Exsx:
Hi

I have big problems with 1.3r3 release. I've done the following:

- reflashed radio

- formatted sdcard and created ext2 partition upgraded to ext3

- wipe

- flashed firmware

But wi-fi does not work... It always says obtaining IP address...

I do not use special SPL, I do not want to flash it.. I've read it's dangerous and can cause bricks. I've also read this rom does not require it.

Thanks

Roby
[G1 Android Development] josevtome:
I won't try to guarantee that the SPL upgrade won't hurt your phone, but if you follow the steps to upgrade it and you have the requirements then you will succeed... and as it says in the first post:

I was scared when I first did it, but it's worth it! :)
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
Same here... but fortunately, it flashed without a hitch. Just to be safe, even though I had the latest radio already, I reflashed the radio and then the SPL right after it boot up.
[G1 Android Development] tropheuz:
Hi,

I'm having problems (only this one) with wifi. Cant seem to get IP's. I t works ok, if I force the IP and DNS network.

I have latest radio and HardSPL.

should I download latestest SPL (1.33.2005) and flash? really wanted to keep this ROM but not so sure if I want to mess with SPL...

any advice?
[G1 Android Development] jeffreythejoker74011:
Still having wifi issues using WEP

Great build.

However, Im still having some wifi issues using wep same as above.

What all do we need and where do we get it?

Im a total newb so please be gentle.
[G1 Android Development] Likeableguy:
WiFi won't be able to obtain Ip's for whatever reason without Haykuro SPL. To see if you have that, just go to your Settings -> SD card & phone storage and look under Internal phone storage, if it's around 80 MB you should have the correct SPL, if not then your wifi might not work properly. At least this is what I've found to be true.
[G1 Android Development] tropheuz:
ok, I have hardspl, a PVT board, and latest radio ***26I.

Correct me if I'm wrong:

->rename Haykuro SPL to update.zip

->copy to sdcard (root)

->enter recovery mode: I have JF 1.4

->flash update.zip

now my dark place, what should happen? after reboot the phone should start without no worries? Or do I have to enter recovery mode again?

best regards
[G1 Android Development] stogchris81:
When you reboot after flashing spl, your phone will boot loop. After a few minutes pull your battery, boot into recovery ,and flash your Rom again.
[G1 Android Development] tropheuz:
ok thx, done that.

after all things done, phone got to home screen.

I checked internal memory and it was around 84MB :) so I think I got the new SPL :)

New problem:

I booted to recovery mode and did a clean swipe to later flash this ROM.

now in recovery mode says:

E: cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0) cant mount sdcard aborting...

what should I do??
[G1 Android Development] sdrewh:
Does anyone know?

I want to upgrade the JacxRom from a previous version will I still need to wipe?
[G1 Android Development] josevtome:
Wipe is not a requirement, but might be recommended... do a backup first. I always wipe to flash a new rom, I think it's safer (but that's me) :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] sdrewh:
Thanks man... i usually to but I finally got the phone set up exactly how I want it and I have wiped and flashed like 50 times in the last two months with all these roms that are coming out. By the way JAC awesome job loved the Hero roms and now these as well.
[G1 Android Development] brady1_uk:
I installed without wiping first time round and suffered some lag and force close issue, may of just been coincidence, however i then wiped and reflashed again and its been perfect since,

"Backup for Root" is a very handy tool for restoring your phone after each Flash :)

Have fun..
[G1 Android Development] JAWheat411:
People talk about battery issues. I actually purchased thr Power Manager program. No matter what rom I use I always have good results. Basically out of the box it sets your phone to use certain profiles depending on wether it is plugged up by usb or even if the battery gets to a certain level. Such as 30%.
[G1 Android Development] sdrewh:
I tried that before and I didn't have much luck with it. Is there anything special I have to do to make the Backup for root work right?
[G1 Android Development] tropheuz:
I will fix my sdcard.

just to let you know that my wifi now works! (latest SPL as you said, is really necessary)

regards
[G1 Android Development] ThR1LL:
I remember when I first used it it always made my G1 hang and lag between switching screens. It was just horrible, but after the update it seems to be working fine now. You should go ahead and re-download it.

Also does anyone know what's the speed on this rom compared to cyan 3.9.7?
[G1 Android Development] RaQHoliday:
Alright dammit. I really miss this ROM.

I'm about to flash it and see if I can push "WorkEmail" from Cyan's ROM to it... wish me luck lol.
