Well just boot into the boot-loader (power off and then power on by pressing/holding Camera+Power)

Then post back what the various version info is you see is.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] bittermormon:
Thanks. I am testing Soulife's latest and had the same problem. I wiped, formatted my ext partition, and reflashed and it worked. Probably some sort of conflict with something I had installed.

I am going to flash this one and if it doesn't work I will post.
[G1 Android Development] darkspirit386:
I confirm:

DREAM PVT 32B ENG S-OFF

HBOOT-1.33.2005 (DREA21000)

CPLD-4

RADIO-2.22.19.261

So back to the beginning...
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
hmmm,

Try setting up again.

Question:

You got adb setup, so that you could do adb logcat for me ?

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] darkspirit386:
Ok, I tried a couple of things, with adb logcat on.

First, I tried to overwrite the rom with the HERO theme(because I was planning to install it anyway) and it hanged on the Rogers(G1) Logo with that running over and over on the logcat:

Huge Text File #1

I redid my partitions, reflashed the original update, and here's what I get with the bootloop. In the code, I wrote down where it reboots:

Huge Text File #2

It means almost nothing for me, what do you think?

v1.7.4 release

Hi all,

Posted v1.7.4 update. Some minor bug fixes.

As always, nandroid backup, flash and enjoy.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] darkspirit386:
Just tried 1.74, and I'm still getting a boot loop. Just thougt it might help!
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Honestly it doesn't ... what would really help is a logcat dump of the "boot loop" you are experiencing.

Can you do this, all you need is 'adb'.

Also, I would like you flashing the ROM, poweroff, remove your sdcard and then reboot.

Please let me know!

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] darkspirit386:
I'm not quite sure what you mean by "just adb" because it onlu gives me a buch of command I can do, but here's the part where it bootloops:

Edit:

HOWEVER!!!

The moment I took off my sd card and rebooted like you sugested, it booted normally. Any idea what is happening?? Thank a lot!
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Yea,

As I suspected / previously mentioned.

Something is up with the sdcard. "Most" boot loops are caused by corrupted sdcard partitions and/or ext4 being utilized.

So the sdcard needs to be reformatted and/or checked for hw errors, do you have a sdcard reader?

Also, what method are you using to format your sdcard?

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] Geniusdog254:
Hey great work on this!

The only thing I would like to add is a version with BFS support included. Any chance of that? Thanks a lot!
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Hey Geniusdog254,

At the moment, it's something I'm pondering over.

Basically, there are some known issues with 2.6.29 kernel. This is the only kernel version that is feasible to port BFS into.

I use a 2.6.27 kernel, for it's hw stability. There's really not a good chance that BFS can be ported easily to 2.6.27.

Thus, if I did post a version with it, it would certainly be it's own build. I'm currently not jumping on the bandwagon. I would like to see it progress a little more as well.

I believe soulife is going to offer such a build, just FYI.

We'll see what happens, but as it stands, I'm not going to rush that into my builds. I believe they are "snappy" and "fast" enough for the moment, and don't want to trade off the hw stability.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] soulife:
Soulife is playin with it. Its pretty fresh still. Maybe the new patches cyanogen just made will help but as of now (on roger at least) there's no overall speed increase. Some things slow down but others are sped up. (Scrolling app tray for example is "glitchy" but home comes up with no delay, as well as phone call) Hopefully with these patches it'll speed everything up but as enomther said, let's watch it progress a little.

Wait... this isn't my thread.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:

FC's bro

Hey man, I rally wanted to get this exchange stuff bro!

Your other builds were smooth man ......!111 what fibres???

I'm testing acore fcls ..........help!!!!!!!

Thanks bro I know you'll figure it out?

I wiped too!
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Hi grandtorino,

When switching from one of my TMO builds, to this rogers build. You must kill the TMO expansion pack on the sdcard.

Reboot into cyanogen's recovery .. press (Alt+x) to enter the console ...

And enter the following commands ........

mount system/sd
cd system/sd
rm -rf app
rm -rf app-private
rm -rf expstick
rm -rf dalvik-cache
cd ../..
umount system/sd
recovery

This will take you back to recovery, perform a "wipe" and then flash the ROM, reboot.

This will fix your "acore" FC's

[Resolved] Crash when connecting USB

Have just started getting a major crash problem with 1.7.3 here, seems like when I plug my USB in, everything dies and the UI reboots giving me the HTC logo and a startup sound. The logcat shows that it seems like all the services on the phone die. Not sure if this is fixed in 1.7.4 (just saw it was posted) or if it is even ROM related. I will post the logcat here in case anyone can see any issues.

The "died" messages continue on from there, and then it reboots android. Nothing happens unless I plug in the USB cable to my PC.

Edit: Updated to 1.7.4 and the problem persists. I guess I need to start dumping software so I can tell if this is a third party program :(.

Edit 2: FOUND THE ISSUE! Turns out it was the "Profiles" app I had installed from the market. It changes ringtones and profiles for you, apparently it doesn't change them correctly and causes a crash when connecting USB. Changed my profile and the problem went away! Leaving this msg as is in case anyone else has the problem they might hit on it in a search.

Thanks so much Enomther, turns out it wasn't your ROM after all :) (had no doubts, heh).
[G1 Android Development] grandtorino:
thanks bro :D

Thanks bro! That fixed everything, you're the man!

wow! i did a fresh install with the new version... and this baby just flashed me!!!:cool:

blazing fast, reliable and i got german language, bluetooth AND local outlook sync!!! at least for my contacts... (calendar + contacts work with hero , rogers allows just contacts sync)

Hello, can I flash 1.7.4 over top of 1.7.3?

I hope, I hope.

Great work BTW! I'm sticking with your build for a little while at least!
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Hi lotherius,

Yea, I forgot to mention in the change logs.

In order to resolve the display issue completely. You must perform a wipe. The display is set on the first boot and placed into the phone's configuration. The only way to get it out is a wipe, my apologies.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Hi anonymoustom,

Sure you can flash this ontop of v.17.3. The only thing it won't do is fix the "display issue", where it's displaying HTC Magic in the phone's About Settings.

This can only be fixed with a wipe after upgrading.

Other than that (if that's not bothering you ;) ) then sure you can flash right on top.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:

Network scan still failing for me but this happens on all rogers roms ive tryed in the last few days.

APN List not automatic for me on this build. the only one that i had automatic apn on is the rom by soulife.

Just to make sure it was not a problem with my phone ive tryed it on my girlfriends g1 and still no automatic apns

But not a major problem for me ive know 02 setting of by heart now.

Just found a weird issue in 1.74 + Hero Theme v2.

My contacts are in the dialer, but they do not appear in Contacts. And if I want to View them(Menu->View), process.android.acore keeps force closing until I reboot the phone.

It's nothing major, just wanted to tell you!
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Hi bob,

v1.7.4 might help with the APN issue (I can't be certain though). It appears to be a "regional issue", of which my region has not been affected. If you install v1.7.4, do make sure you wipe (as this will allow the phone to display properly, as a T-Mobile X build). This "could" be related to the APN issue, however again, I can't confirm. Awaiting someone to test it out for me.

As far as the "scanning for networks" deal, this is definitely not fixed. I'm still colaborating with others on this issue, but I'm just not optimistic an easy fix is going to be found. But we're still looking into the issue.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Hmmm,

Sounds like yet another faulty config problem.

I'm sure you hate hearing this, but a "wipe" is probably in order to fix that. I'm not experiencing these issues on v1.7.4 + HEROv2 theme.

If you do wipe, you'd likely want to clear out your dalvik-cache directory on your sdcard's ext partition also.

Did you ever get your sdcard working ?

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] T-One:
Hi,

i tried your v1.7.4 ROM today but with the same results. I installed it on a dream/G1 from T-Mobile Austria.

Strange is that after the first flash i just see the notification bar on top, but no desktop, but when i press the call-button i can phone everyone and i also got a sms and an mail notification from gmail, but after the first restart its locked with the HTC-Screen.

the cyanogen rom and also the hero roms working good, i have no idea where the problem is with your rom.

anyway, its too bad that i cant install that, want to give it a try :)

so long

T-One
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Hi T-One,

I still believe this is an issue with your sdcard. That is the only "major" difference between my ROM and the others you describe, is the supported fs options.

You could prove this, by rebooting into recovery, performing a data wipe, flashing the ROM, powering down, removing the sdcard and the booting up.

If it comes up normally, it would definitively be your sdcard layout.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] darkspirit386:
Yeah, I did but changing my card for a class 6 one. I'll try to wipe. Thanks!

SMS issue

Hey love the rom Enomther, it's a good blend of functionality and style.

I'm running Ver. 1.73 in the NYC area and it's been brought to my attention that I haven't been receiving all of my text messages. It could be a problem on the NYC network side, but I wanted to make sure it was an isolated issue or something wrong in the rom.

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Hey don_dekela,

Yea this has been a confirmed issue with the stock MMS.apk HTC pushes in the Rogers build. I've been pushin rgv151's mms apk as hard as I know how and I'm now ready to include it in the next release.

Till then, you can install rgv151's MMS app in expsetup. Choose option #13 and then select option #3. Say "yes" to download and "no" to reboot (b/c there's a bug in v1.7.3 that would freeze the phone on "yes" - fixed in v1.7.4)

Then reboot you phone manually into recovery and flash the update.zip file. This will give rgv151's updated/modified mms.apk.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
No worries Bob.

If you'd rather cruze on v1.7.3, then by all means. ;) No rush to test, I'm sure if it's still present someone will complain. ;)

So only if it's convenient for you, it would be appreciated. :)

[G1 Android Development] maysys:
First of all: Great Rom.

I've tried a few hero builds and a few others on my MT3G, and this one is by far the most functional and the peppiest. I'm very pleased with it.

However, I installed 1.7.4 today on top of 1.7.3, and ran expsetup afterwards to install the VSAPPS. I've actually tried it twice, and it isn't working. Neither the widget set or the java or anything else gets installed.

I'm not running A2SD, nor a swap partition, if that matters.

Any clues? It worked fine before on 1.7.2, and then i blew that away to try some hero builds.

Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Hi maysys,

My guess is .. that before you blew away the build to try a HERO build, you had app2sd.

Without apps2sd, you can not use the "normal vsapp" installer.

Now, on the MyTouch3G, you can still install vsapp's on the /system partition. A special option #100 is present for mt3g users, allowing for this when A2SD is not being utilized.

If you want, you can download the VSAPP's in option #12, but say "no" to install them.

Then re-run expsetup and choose the option #100 to "Install Virtual System-Apps2SD on /system". ;)

This should work for you w/out Apps2SD.

Let me know.

Suppose you could try downloading it again. Not quite sure.

I tried downloading it again. It's the same filesize. I tried renaming it to update.zip this time, but I got the same error. I tried wiping and flashing the theme, but I got the error still.

[G1 Android Development] enomther:
Well,

Something else must be going on, btw it should work just fine on a G1.

1) Was version of the ROM are you running?

2) I need you to send me a log dump from your phone. This may shed some light on the matter.

To send a log, open up the TerminalApp, and enter the following commands ..

su
expsetup

Select option #8, to generate an EP log. This will save a file to your phone's sdcard card, called something like ep_log_XXXXXXXXXX.log. You can either zip this up and post here or email me ... enomther at gmail dot com

[G1 General] Weees:
So, I have just made a couple of changes to my phone. My mistake is that I did it all at the same time. So I dont know what fu***ed it up !

1. I formated the ext2 partition to ext3

2. I added a linux Swap partition (104Mb)

3. I loaded the CN 1.4 Recovery image

3. I installed the SPL 1.33.2005

I have been using JF 1.51 and I was having some issues after a recent corruption so I thought I will try JacHero 1.7 since I was planning on a clean install anyway. So the new SPL was for the Jachero rom.

Anyway, why i think the issue happened while flashing the SPL its because after I flashed the CN Recovery screen came up and it said "Formatting Cache" and it stayed on that screen for like 15 min. and I thought ok, it must be done and the Recovery menu was active so I just scrolled to reboot after which I was never able to boot past T-Mobile G1 screen.

I did eventually update to JacHero 1.7 after a wipe but still didnt seem to work. Still stuck at boot screen.

Any ideas ?

Any help is appreciated !!

Thanks.

Sometimes the only way the danger spl will take is if you rename it to update.zip and click on apply sdcard update zip. Try doing that and see, also try a non hero rom and see if it boots, if it does and a hero won't chances are it was the spl
[G1 General] Weees:
ITS WORKING !! :)

So I kept on messing around, I went into the SPL settings pressed lots of keys (not much clue wut i was doing) and I tried a couple of restarts and after messing around with everything.......somehow it booted into the new Hero rom (Dont ask me how !) but it was completely screwed up. Meaning, This HTC screen is the only thing I can see. If i turn off the screen and turn it back on, I will see the unlock screen of Hero (which looked really cool) but as soon as I unlock im back to this wierd HTC black screen where nothing happens!!.

Soooo I went back into the recovery mode and tried the nandroid restore option (AGAIN) only this time it went through and completed the recovery ! (It wouldnt do that the last 3 times i tried) and now I back to my JF 1.51 ;)

Not really sure if I still want to try Hero anymore :P

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] bmnaccounts:
ROM 1.39.405.2 (47382) WWE and it doesn't work!

I just wonder, the ROM upgrade on the HTC website just fixes the stock tab, or does it do anything else? Which version is the one on the website?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] mttca:
Then would recommend to upgrade the ROM.

There are three options for you:

1. Using the ship ROM downloaded directly from HTC web site - should be stable, though can be not the latest one.

2. Using the optimized ship ROM (WM 6.1) from Topaz ROM section - based on the latest official ROM, stable.

3. Trying a new fresh look of a ROM with WM 6.5 - there are possible bugs as this is not HTC official ROM for D2/Topaz

I tried all the three options and decided to stay with option 2 (TESS V2.F ROM) - stable, fast, bug free, with some usefull utilities added.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] machinho:
your rom is OK, the phone must be locked to turn on this feature. You can lock the phone pressing for a moment the "hang" key
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] bmnaccounts:
Thanks manchinho, you are right. But I don't understand why it works only when it is locked. Surely you would do the same even if it was unlocked? In any case it takes time to mute so it doesn't seem very useful...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] paalkr:
Hi!

An other solution would be to use the Touch InCall Screen Tweak application, that can mute the phone when face down, in addition to other useful stuff.
