try doing this from your computer using adb. (you might have to research a bit to get adb set up on your pc as i will not go over it here)

otherwise, if you're lazy and like me...

1. Download Astro File Manager from the Market.

2. Open up Astro, and browse to /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1

NOTE: Press the green UP arrow in Astro to get back to the main (/) directory.

3. There will be another mmc1 folder with a colin and about 4 numbers in the directory name. Mines like this:

"mmc1:b368"

Open that folder.

4. LONG press on the "cid" file in this directory and click on "Open As".

5. Select "Text" from the list that pops up.

6. If you get a pop up for what program you want to use to view the file you can either use a text editor you have already installed, or the HTML viewer works too.

7. Enjoy.

Let me know if you have questions.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rockin_mod:
One other HUGE thing that messed me up. You need the sim card in the phone to get the correct cid #. With one phone i had 3 different cid #'s and was like what the hell?! I have done this with the wing many times. But i for got that you need the sim card. So please please keep that bad boy in there. I usually have a back up phone and use that while rooting or anything. Also i believe ADB is so much more accurate and easier to copy the numbers to be sure. In terminal after you have the cid go to file(for windows xp) select all, then while all is selected put the cursor over the very last number of the cid and drag to the first, then go to file again and select copy. If you have vista or win7 instead of going to file just right click at the top bar on the window to get menu options. fosho. . . .

I keep getting "Error – Wrong Model ID". I have tried recreating the goldcard several times. I have a kingston 2gb SD card. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

*nvm, I figured out the problem I think... after checking in the mmc1 folder for the cid instead of using the adb i found that i messed up on of the numbers in there so all is good i think

[Hero, G2 Touch General] RussST24:
Hi

Anyone else had their hero lock up while on charge over night?

I have had it about 10 days and rooted it. Started getting slower and then 2 nights ago put it on charge before bed and in the morning it was totally non responsive and i had to pull the battery.

Decided root was not needed so I got the stock Rom from xda and flashed it back.

Now runs s9 much faster. great I thought.

Put it on charge again before bed yet again in the morning it was Locked.

Pulled the power and left it. 3 hrs later I pulled the battery it had totally drained it.

Been fine and fast all day so will let you know if it locks again.

White sim free model.

I've had this on my stock t-mobile hero. I just assumed that an app was that runs in the background was causing it. For the life of me I can't remember the name of it, but I'm pretty sure it was a rss/news reader.

Sorry I'm so vague

On both of my bluetooth headsets, I can hear people just fine, but they always say they can barely hear me. At one point it was fine, I think I messed it up by screwing around with settings looking for power savings in advanced config and diamond tweak. There are only a few settings in these 2 apps and I think I've tried them all, but is there someplace I should be looking?
[G1 General] nahanee20:
Ok so im going to root my phone and install a hero build, my first question i, will installing a new radio change my signal amount, right now i have an iphone, a blackberry curve, and a g1, the g1 is the only phone that gets signal all the time in my house. Also I have a class 4sd, i understand that these roms do automatically apps to sd, will having a class 4 make my system slow, and will class 4 work with swap. and the final question is whitch hero rom has sms working? tried to search but couldn't find anything. thanks.
[G1 General] SolemnWishing:
1. Better reception.

2. I use a Class 4 8GB with 32MB linux swap, no adverse speed effects to my knowledge.

3. Most Hero ROMs are getting 99% of messages, I use JACHero 2.7.4 LITE version, which uses the default launcher.

4. Taylor Swift is a thug, yo.
[G1 General] nahanee20:
so whats the difference between light, does using a different launcher slow it down?
[G1 General] big_d093:
light doesnt use "rosie" aka lancher..lite uses the default google lancher stuff..no htc widgets etc.
[G1 General] nahanee20:
well the main reason i have to get this rom is for the widgets, so i geuss i need the full one, and using the full version with a class 4 sd? and whitch version is the newest with the texting working?

im using jachero 1.3. im running a 4 gig class 4 2.6/900/114mb. i have no lag, no htc loading screen. The only lag i notice is getting out of contacts and the weather widget for some reason. Oh also overclocked down to 383. I getting all sms/mms. However 99.9% of my texts are now on gv but when i get them to my phone i always get them.
[G1 General] nahanee20:
I don't have a data plan so I wonder if that will affect my texts I'm leaning toward jacheroski because of the many users but I'm open to comments
[G1 General] nahanee20:
I meant I'm leaning towards jachero, is jacheroski a light version
[G1 General] grandomegabosses:
personally, i think drizzy's personal hero v3 runs great. one of the fastest heros i've run so far. if you want stability, maybe try JACHeroski 2.7.3 Lite. it's hero, but with a cupcake feel to it.
[G1 General] nahanee20:
Does jacheroski give hero widgets? And I want to get the ime keyboard, maybey drizzy is the one
[G1 General] grandomegabosses:
none of the lite heros have hero widgets. do you mean manup's hero widgets? or twitter, weather flip clock, etc widgets?
[G1 General] nahanee20:
I'm talking mostly about the flip clock and weather.widget and I want to run the ime keyboard
[G1 General] grandomegabosses:
almost every buiild nowadays has the htc_ime keyboard. JACHeroski does have those widgets, but you're better off trying his newer heros, JACxHERO, or Drizzy's new heros. Drizzy's personal hero doesn't have all the hero widget, neither does his superlite. But get the FULL hero off of his thread and that has the full hero experience. i haven't run the full drizzy hero, but his personal is blazing fast.
[G1 General] nahanee20:
whitch widgets does his personall not have, i cant seem to find a description in his thread.
[G1 General] grandomegabosses:
yah, he doesn't say which he doesn't have.. i'm not completely sure right now. i just flashed cyanogens newest... sorry man :\
[G1 General] mmace:
thought I'd add my 2p to this.

I've used the jachero ROM and had to change back

I received less than 10% of my texts and MMS's (yes, literally, it kept receiving an old one over and over when people text me)

If you upgrade to a newer version (even 0.1 upgrade) then you lose all your settings etc

Very slow when going from an app or settings screen back to home screen (takes 20 seconds or so)

I missed loads of calls, when someone phoned me it vibrated, screen went black and no buttong responded, when it eventually played the ringtone and showed me who was calling and the buttons responded it had gone to voicemail.

i am using jac v3r2... i love it. i seem to get most of my sms. the only person that i know i fail to recieve texts from is one of my friends but she has a g1 and she always has problems with her phone so i am not sure if it is on her end or mine...

[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] matt_stang:
I rooted my sister's G1 today and realized that I actually really like the way

the old android looked. I don't know if many of you remember but it was

slightly different than the android look now, with whiter buttons and thicker

lines between menu items...

Well here it is. I did almost nothing. All I did was port a bunch of images from the firmware

and launcher of an RC30 .zip into Cyanogen's template

Also, I tried editing the power control widget, but failed. I guess I'll keep looking in to it

but it doesn't look like it's gonna be happening. So pretty much the only thing that doesn't

look very "old school" is the power control widget. But... who gives a ****

This is mostly for personal use, but I like it, so I figured someone else might like it too.

So those of you who do, enjoy.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] BuboBriff:
Hi Guys,

Has anyone else noticed this problem? and / or Could you please test this too to see if it's a common issue?

I use the "phone keypad" style, to enter text as I find i'm the most efficient with that one. However when the phone is horizontal, on a table for example, the backspace key just does not respond. (Which is on the right hand side of the screen near the edge)

As soon as I pick it up, so the phone is at a 45 degree angle for example, the backspace "key" responds again.

In summary I have noticed the left and right areas of the screen do not appear to be very responsive / don't work when the phone is horizontal. The middle "keys" / area is fine.

Any ideas / anyone else?

Had it for a few weeks now, not dropped it or anything, and everything else seems great. What's the deal with replacements from Orange if necessary, do they have to "repair" it? (EEK!)

Cheers, Si

It seems to be more about whether your fingers are touching the bezel!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] foxmeister:
Rather than pick up the phone, just hold it using the thumb and forefinger and see if it works correctly. It seems to me that the touchscreen definitely works better so long as you're physically touching the device elsewhere than just using the screen. I do wonder if this is an artifact of the capacitive touch screen - I'd be interested to know if iPhones show the same behaviour.

Hi all

I have a SGH-i780 (XBHA3) and want to upgrade with the official samsung release of WM6.1.

My question is simple. Is there danish language in the new update (i780PXBHK2_Upgrader_XP) i chose nordic in the country setting on the samsung mobile i780 update page (http://www.samsungmobile.com/support/i780/index.jsp), but i am not sure which languages this contains?

I upgraded to WM6.5 months ago but found the cut and paste bug in messaging too annoying so went back to WM6.1. I've been trying to keep up with 6.5 development but haven't seen one way or another if this has been solved by M$ yet. Any other short-comings in 6.5 that would stop me enjoying 6.5?

Well I havent experienced any copy and paste bugs. I have seen a program here and there not work (small non-essential programs). Once in a blue moon the screen wont resize/let me scroll in messages. Selecting multiple files in total commander is hard (but its not 6.5s fault).

[G1 Android Development] Janis:
"I CAN'T GET TO MY PHONE BEFORE IT GOES TO VOICEMAIL!" Sound familiar?

This thread is to discuss and discover/provide work-arounds (and potentally solutions) for the lag time between the initial ring from a caller and the incoming notifications on the android phone. Since there are other ways to make it possible to answer a call before it gets forwarded, other perspectives/ideas/questions/discussion are welcome here as well.

(Since I started the griping here I figure I better follow up.)

After a day or so of being opened, there are already several things we can do to help our phones ring faster posted in this thread. If something is confusing to you, please ask. If you click on the username of a post, you have the option to send a personal message. Unless you are darn sure other people have your question, please use this option. If it turns out your question would better suit this or any thread, you can paste your PM into the thread at any time.

I have to say this so I can rail on people: no matter how many Opening Posts say READ, READ, READ, the people who consistently don't read the thread haven't read the Opening Post, either. Don't be one of those people. The rest of us resent you for cluttering the thread, consequently creating even more clutter because there's too much crap for other people to read. We think you are being ignorant and selfish. This entire forum is public information; try to keep in mind your potential future boss might be checking this out to see how useful you might be in their workplace. So this, though probably not read by its intended audience, reserves for me the right to be even b****ier:p

In case anybody is inclined to test it, I already discovered that the phone doesn't ring when it's powered down....

The phone Prioritizer, combined with using ogg format, seems to do the best or me: I can't find it anywhere else. If I've posted this wrongly, please holler.

There was discussion going into the cupcake build about the latency increasing. I can't speculate on the cause of the latency, but it seems to have been going from the first OEM builds.
[G1 Android Development] stellarman:
Delay in phone ring

Delayed phone ring (and even more delayed screen activation and caller ID) on incoming calls. Speaking for myself, callers hear a couple of rings before my ringtone starts to play. And there is another couple of seconds of delay beyond that before the screen lights up and the caller ID comes on.

I have been having this problem for the past, oh, ten or twenty updates. I have tried MANY things to fix it. If you hadn't already said that you always reinstall the radio when you flash, I was going to try that next in my quest for a solution. This ringtone delay problem is currently my number one irritation with my G1, and is at the TOP of my list of issues that I hope Cyanogen will address and conquer.

I have tried "renice -20" on the phone program, with no improvement. I have tried moving ringtones2SD from fat32, with no improvement. I have tried reformating all my custom ringtones as OGG, with no improvement. I have tried installing and uninstalling a variety of programs, with no improvement.

I am certain that Janis and I are not the only people with this problem. I have seen it mentioned by a lot of people in a variety of threads. I am glad to see a specific thread about this particular topicl If anyone has figured out a solution, please speak up. If no one has, perhaps reports from enough people will serve to convince developers to look into it more deeply. Anyone else have feedback?
[G1 Android Development] kaotikking:
I myself am curious to kno if there is any way to work on this. I have been a happy Rom switcher and each Rom has always given me 2 ring delays. The way I worked mine to get close to 1 ring is to constantly use a task killing APK, which I may add is tedious, and making sure I'm clocked 245min 584max
[G1 Android Development] Janis:
After I moved my ringtones from sdcard/audio/ringtones to sdcard/media/audio/ringtones a prescribed by Cyanogen when he originally took all the ringtones out, I had to re-pick my ringtone, as I would expect.

The odd thing is I also have to do it when I add (a) ringtone(s) to the folder or delete one or more. Can anyone shed any light for me on how the system/phone app references ringtones? Why would it lose a ringtone to reference just becuase I added one to the folder it's in?
[G1 Android Development] Janis:
How to test, or one way to do it

I use the home phone or skype, that way I can hear how many rings are actually happening for myself, count actual seconds (ear to the phone, eye on the clock), and I can see what order things happen. No one else,except you guys, has to bear with my hare-brained methods, either.

The last time I tested, the ring actually started before the caller ID popped up, but that was a first for me. Nothing happened until about the end of the second ring from the home phone.

Now I'm running Compcache 32mb, Linux partition swap 128mb, CPU 528/245.
[G1 Android Development] xdviper:
Mines takes about a good 2 to 3 rings on the other side before my phones starts to even vibrate. Itfirst vibrates and then plays the ringtone.

Anyone remember before cupcake, when you got a call, even the call button wouldn't accept the call. Thankfully that's fixed but this still hasn't been fixed.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I don't think you will get rid of the 2 rings on the other end before the phone rings. That is probably just the network finding your phone. However, I have had issues with my phone vibrating 2 or 3 times before the ringtone would start playing. I turned off vibrate and it helped. Then I turned it back on and disabled Missed Call. Now there is barely one vibrate before the ringtone starts playing. I'm turning off Missed call until they have an update for it.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I also found that the battery status widget causes a huge delay if you have it set to update as soon as it changes. It checks everytime the phone comes on and that slows things way down. I set it to update every 60 seconds and it still had some delay but not as much.
[G1 Android Development] SamCookD405:
bout time

glad 2 see its not just me, i almost missed out on a job cause my phone will 'pause' so long it goes to voice mail b4 i can answer. seems like the issue comes and goes, but when its bad, its horrible, 1st it will vibrate for 2-5 sec b4 it rings , then its about 3 sec b4 the id info displays and when im lucky the call button wont react for like 4 or 5 pushes. sum times the phone app force closes:mad:, which means 15-30 sec wait while it reacquires the network and if it force closes the call doesnt show up in the call log:rolleyes:.

iv had this issue with all the rom's and yes i reload the radio about 2 times a week, but even the stock 1.5 gives me the same issue

ok enough venting, any dev's that have might have an alpha or beta fix im willing to test:D!
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
This isn't a ROM problem, it is a phone resources problem. There is something dragging your phone down. It might be different for each one of us having issues.
