Faster does not mean more stable. I mean, unless you want to kill your sd card in a quarter of the time. Just because theres something new doesnt mean you have to use it. I just thought I remembered Mlign saying to use ext2/3 preferably but that may have been a different build/rom I was reading.

Anytime I have used ext4 on any of these builds I have had nothing but problems. I switched back down to ext2/3 for testing and I get less FC, less crashes and no reboots.

Again, I also have a 128mb linux-swap if that helps/hinders anything.
[G1 Android Development] masterrn:
I have mine formated : fat32 7570, ext3 500, Linux-swap 96

Is this ok?
[G1 Android Development] crypysmoker:
Honestly, Im really new to this stuff on phones. But working with linux for years on various systems from pc, to ps2 and xbox, the bigger the swap file really depends on the linux build and luck at the time lol.

Going through these forums I see a lot of conflicting ideas, but 32mb was the funniest I had ever heard.

Now, I understand if your trying to save space but if you dont care raise the size.

On linux, its basicly like the page file for windows. its an extenstion of ram. ram fills up, it spills over into another, slower container.

Now, in linux its only really used for hibernation of the system and other things to where the ram has to be shoved to the side, im not sure how it fully operates on the phone, but im sure is the same.

Normaly you wouldnt want to have more swap then ram you have. I have no idea the amount of ram in the phone but im sure its enough to completely contradict all what I said before this lol.

I do know that 32mb is pushing it. I use 128mb and have no problems, but it will probably kill my card even faster. Oh wel, 8gb cards cost $4.39 in china and ship in a week lol
[G1 Android Development] brian_v3ntura:
welll the actual apps are installed in the ext, but their cache,data,etc are stored on the internal memory.

tweet me with the number of apps you have. i know u use atrackdog so that should be too hard.

i currently dont have all my apps installed but right now i have 66 apps with an internal memory at 70 mb.

just for estimate purposes you can typically have an ext size of 250mb with about a little over hundred apps. so i estimate that i am actually have about 110 mb of apps... just an estimation.
[G1 Android Development] brian_v3ntura:
actually if youre willing to repartition your card ,you should have it set up like this.

fat32 7532

ext 500

and linux-swap SET AT 96mb which is MLIGNs recommendation.

with 38mb of freen unused memory

notice that the fat 32 is smaller by about 38mb.

just in case you want to use 128mb of linux-swap, you have that 38mb of extra memory. just repartition your linux-swap to switch between swap sizes.

i currently have mine set at 96mb with 38mb of unused memory should i ever want to bump it up to 128mb anytime
[G1 Android Development] steven178s:
Omg i never taught of that lol i'm always switching from 62mb to 96 and i need to wipe my sd.

ur a genius lol

installed MALIGN pre2.2 about 3 hours ago. and the ONE thing i can report back is....

DAMN THIS IS )(*@#$UTY@#$GH#$(*GH)$H FAST!!!

the setup was faster, text, notification dropdown, browser... overall way faster than 1.6 IMO

no forcecloses or loading popup at all. im installing programs and texting and browing like crazy too.

awesome job MALIGN thankuthanku
[G1 Android Development] brian_v3ntura:
audio recoring works for me in pre2.2. what rom are u using? and plus if its not working, tis an easy fix
[G1 Android Development] Jerzeeloon:
I have to give you props, I flashed many a hero roms and they all laged forcing me back to cyanogen,but this my friend is a different kind of animal.Fast as f$#k,I have a widget on every screen and I'm only using a class 4 sd card,this is my new everyday rom,you the man.
[G1 Android Development] TheUriel:
LOL ! Man , you rock ! Very stable no lag no load. xD What else can some 1 ask for ?
[G1 Android Development] T3hFurious1:
Getting an error I've never seen before when flashing. Here is the exact message.

(No such file or directory)

Any help would be appreciated.
[G1 Android Development] brian_v3ntura:
did u wipe your ext?
[G1 Android Development] T3hFurious1:
Yep. Not sure what's happening.
[G1 Android Development] brian_v3ntura:
did u follow this process.

wipe ext

repair ext

factory wipe

then flash rom

if that doesnt work, try redownloading the rom. you couldve gotten a bad download(incomplete) it occasionally happens
[G1 Android Development] T3hFurious1:
I think I figured out the issue, I followed that order exactly, but It's because I have flashed TheOfficial 1.6. Hero has no 1.6 compatibility at the moment correct? Because I just tried to flash revolution as well and that did not work either.
[G1 Android Development] brian_v3ntura:
the official 1.6? as in.. the real OTA update? if u flashed the official 1.6 then you lose root as a result. and oh yea akirahs newest update 3.0.1 loses root.
[G1 Android Development] T3hFurious1:
Nah the enomther one. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=538456

Which I believe is the official official update with root.
[G1 Android Development] brian_v3ntura:
u should be able to flash any rom as long as you wipe the ext and follow proper procedures.

i jumped from cupcake to hero, tested out 1.6 roms, and went back to hero.
[G1 Android Development] newjaruz:
yeah I would probably do the same that why I no longer even bother flashing the plain jane G1 roms anymore. Just stick with Hero or a heavily themed version of android.

Camera button launch google search

er, may i know how to set the camera button to launch the camera app instead of google search??

been using it for a few days and i would like to use the camera button for camera.

only hang for once while opening album pcitures. otherwise the rom is perfectly fine and FAST.

[G1 Android Development] EWitsJan:
Loading Screens

Had this ROM for 2 days now.

First day running GREATTT!

second day had my first loading screen, actually had two while i was in market for more than 5mins & browser more than 5mins. Right when I press home loading screen.

It last about less than 20 seconds.

Still best ROM I ever had & im sticking to it untill new update ;]
[G1 Android Development] ArionRickAllen:
WOW.. I like..

Thank you for this ROM. I have been trying different ones for the past few day's and all seem to either have something missing or just not work the way it seems it should. V2.2 is really nice. I saw the HTC Loading screen a couple of times and got the FC 2 or 3 times at the widget tutorial screen. Can that be removed? I liked the fact that I did not see the tutorials on the typing correction deal. What is that called anyway? It is great. I had an issue with it "sticking" on one of the letters in magic and the message window would not go away and it would not allow me to continue. the key that it wanted me to press was under the message window. After that, when ever the onscreen keyboard would come up it would also have that message over the litters. Thankful that this is not still an issue although I had not read anything about anyone else having the same issue. Oh, hope this does not happen with this ROM although today, while using the phone with the hero revolution ROM (It was great at first but started to bomb) I was listing to music when a call came in. The music continued to play while I was talking. If the music was a little quieter it would have been more like a feature then the distraction that it was. Anyone else had that happen?

[G1 Android Development] blindmp2:
this is the best rom ive used so far... still lags it a lil but wich rom doesnt this is good for everyday use :)
[G1 Android Development] VermilionAngel:
Same problem

I have noticed the same thing. First day it runs like a cheetah with rocket boots, the second day it runs like turtle that threw it's back out. I found that using "Swapper" app from the market to reset the swap helps for a bit but the lag comes back with in a hour or 2.
[G1 Android Development] Bzerk1:
ReALLY lIKE the LOCKSCREEN

how do we port it to another rom or our own builds?
[G1 Android Development] renegadedj:
more than 24 hours later, and this ROM is still blazing. i'm using 96mb linux-swap and have 32mb compcache enabled. i set NO back-swapping and NO market swapper program.

the ROM simply FLIES. ONLY slow complaint i have is holding down a gmail email to get the popup menu takes awhile longer than what im used to from xrom and cyanogen.
[G1 Android Development] n1ghtl1fe:
aww no props/link in the twitter shout out = / haha setCPU will slow her down ? guess ill just go to default settings =D my bad too feel like i didnt show off full potential since it was a fresh boot everything took a lil bit longer. still looks soo good

thanks again for "the peoples rom"
[G1 Android Development] live_in_the_sky06:
Im getting this error code as well. I have followed the process to the T. any help?

I played with some more and now I cant even reformat my partitions. It says no such file or directory exists... I think I am really screwed now.
[G1 Android Development] n1ghtl1fe:
use windows format tool or paragon partition to do a FULL sd wipe to fat32. then use the new custom recovery 1.2.2 too partition. THen download it (not too sd i mean fresh dl from website) then put on sd and flash.
[G1 Android Development] EWitsJan:
Day 3 using this ROM. Seems like there's more loading screens when you haven't used it for pass 30 minutes. When you use it for 5 minutes straight it's faster than anything! like crazy fast! Here are my time calculations for things to open while been using it 15 minutes straight, but I ended every app!

Peep(Twitter): 6 seconds till it showed any text and picture.

Twidriod PRO: 3 seconds. :D

Browser: 8 seconds till it started to load google.

Weather: 4 seconds.

Market: 2 seconds.

Music: 6 seconds.

Default Messages: 5 seconds.

Chomp SMS: 2 Seconds. :D

Camcorder: 4 seconds.

Camera: 2 seconds.

Be in mind I did end every program before the next! & I do have a class 4 SD card so times may be a little slow. I've had more loading screens than FC's, so that's a good thing for me I guess. Still the best/fastest ROM I ever had!!
[G1 Android Development] tf442:
Best Hero

This is still the most useable Hero ROM available right now. Very quick between Rosie screens. A little slower to load apps compared to the Hero ROM's with BFS, but no random reboots or lockups.

Works very well for a day to day ROM.
[G1 Android Development] MLIGN:
im glad yall like my rom i really love the support but can you please help me with this support pls just support this! https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=8712617 i promise you i will not dissapoint in my new 2.5 build! just pls hit me with what you have!.. you will love the next one i promise!
[G1 Android Development] ArionRickAllen:
Load Times..

yeah I noticed that constant use does make the phone faster. Also. I noticed that when it's at home connected to my home Wifi, it's faster then if I was not at home on the edge network. I am assuming that its the updating of widgets that slow it down while on the edge. I would also assume that this is why it's a little slow after a little while because everything needs to cetch up and is done at the same time. In contrast, it's not done in bulk while being used and updated as it's being used. I may be way off base.. but this is what it seems is happening.
[G1 Android Development] bobbybooshay:
is the pre2.2 mt3g compatible?
[G1 Android Development] phaze478:
I just had a rosie freak out. I went home from browsing xda and got a HTC loading screen, and after it loaded I had no wallpaper well I tried to use set and save to put my background back and it crashed rosie so I tried to do it from the menu and it crashed rosie too. And also advanced task manager crashed it too, and I have been using that for 2 days. A reboot fixed it and I can't duplicate it to get a logcat. ...hope it don't happen again, other than that great rom
[G1 Android Development] mt3g:
yes it is just flash this over as if it was the rom... keep the mlign rom on just flash over on top http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=563288

[G1 Android Development] EWitsJan:
bluetooth & led works sometimes for me. Doesn't light up when it's charging. This rom is super fast tho :eek:
[G1 Android Development] MLIGN:
new rom is out. just posting on here no direct links check my site www.adidas-reborn.webs.com to get my builds thanks
[G1 Android Development] Glen L:
thanks for the update.

Q: do I need to wipe if im upgrading from 2.2pre?
[G1 Android Development] freekyfrogy:
Do we need to use SetCPU for this?
[G1 Android Development] yourtravelboy:
wipe and setcpu

Yes you need to wipe

&

No you don't need to use setcpu

This rom runs fast and smooth with a 96MB linux-swap partition on a class6 sd card.

2.4.5 has some very good improvements. You will like them.
[G1 Android Development] tf442:
MLIGN says something about pink for breast cancer awareness. I hope there isn't a bunch of pink in his theme. Is there?
[G1 Android Development] Dror520:
Yes there is some pink, MLIGN also told me that in 2.5 it's going to be fully pink ...
[G1 Android Development] sardoid:
For me wifi not works:/
[G1 Android Development] EWitsJan:
wifi works for me but this ROM has been very slow.... it's been a hour since i flash it & its sooo sluggish! right now ive been on a black sceen for twenty++ seconds...
[G1 Android Development] EWitsJan:
ok after I had to battery reset it its running pretty smooth now. Gotta love the fresh boot haha
[G1 Android Development] qwerty3656:
MLIGN - still not comfortable with the Memory Hack? I need a "jump" in performance (over say 2.1.5 -that is the last one I had my wife try). 2.1.5 seemed fast and stable to me, but she won't put up with any performance delays (for example opening and closing the browser).

I am trying to get my wife to go with a HERO Rom (for the coolness factor). I know the response is try-it and see, but I only have so much "capital" I can expend having my wife try new ROM's.
[G1 Android Development] freekyfrogy:
:):(:confused::mad::p;):D:o:rolleyes::cool::eek:

This ROM is pretty dang fast, and I didn't even get a loading screen after surfing engadget for 10 min and then going home. There is still a bit of trademark Hero lag, but overall MLIGN has done a GREAT job of getting rid of it. I would suggest you try it first, and see if it's fast enough for your wife. Also, you should probably try the MotoBlur ROM when it comes out. I hear it's gonna be really fast.:D
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
Thanks on the shout out MLIGN, much appreciated!
[G1 Android Development] samir5421:
Very fast

Wow this is really fast even though I'm only using 64 mb swap
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
we will fix that soon! Maybe tonight
[G1 Android Development] lapalways05:
LOL then we need a lil mama for drizzy and MLIGN
[G1 Android Development] elcazador:
Congrats on ROM.

Few issues :

after set up when You click and hold longer on screen to add widgets I got FC 3 times in row.including trying hit + after 2 first attempt.

Another FC same as DDR 1.5.5 during search people I got FC!!!

Rest looks ok so far.

If I can I will recommend to add as standard to apps:

Quickoffice

PDFViewer

SETCPU

MAPS

SPARE PARTS

Keep doing a good work!
[G1 Android Development] MLIGN:
you know you gotta be in here "dont shout out" lol my ass!!
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
lol drizzy did this too?
[G1 Android Development] nnesto21:
wow FC everywhere even w a reformatted class6 sd

going back to kingklick i will waited out till you get better kid

Wow this is more like the peoples force close rom for now
[G1 Android Development] n1ghtl1fe:
I havent had any FC's but people search but thats known issue and i never use. As for add widgets holding screen no FC here.

This rom comes STRIPPED so people dont get those apps they dont want and have too remove themselves. Also your recommending adding paid apps which isnt smart man.
[G1 Android Development] l3wish:
I'll keep checking on the Sapphire Thread.
[G1 Android Development] l3wish:
Really o_0?
[G1 Android Development] n1ghtl1fe:
Can we get a mod on this one? kingklicks got a good rom but come on your bein a fanboy all over MLIGN's thread. Its another ChrisChavez story, which ended up in him being banned.

[G1 Android Development] elcazador:
I just got 3 times in row - now adding widgets works just fine!

If You have a lot people in contacts - search helps a lot!

About apps - all of it comes as standard in all others ROMs just like Drizzy's,JAC...etc
[G1 Android Development] crackzattic:
is there anything u have to setup for swap or compcache or is everything automatic just have a partion and then flash. thx alot i read all 8 pages but i didnt see anything about this.
[G1 Android Development] n1ghtl1fe:
Some times those small FC's work themselves out =D setcpu doesnt come standard with other roms cuz it is paid, you can always edit config for cpu settings as well. As for people thing i guess i dont have a lot of friends? lol jk just thing scrolling is faster than poping out keyboard to make a quick call.
[G1 Android Development] sacredsoul:
Nope. Just make sure you have 3 partions on a Class 6 card. FAT32, EXT3/4, 96mb Swap. The rest will take care of themselves ;)
[G1 Android Development] n1ghtl1fe:
Make sure ext is clean flash. Im using stock user config settings (it uses a linux swap) and it flllyss im also on 100mb swap

*my bad guess guy up top beat me too it*
[G1 Android Development] crodgers79:
Is it worth upgarding from 2.2pre?

I've been trying a few ROMs and finally found happiness with 2.2pre since it's rock-solid stable, no memory hack, no reboots, black screens, no Loading screens etcetera.. it really appears to be able to be my "everyday use" ROM.. of course, I get "upgrade fever" thinking I'm missing out on something every time these devs post a new version, so I have to ask, is 2.4.5 worth the upgrade? Why? Also is it _really_ pink throughout or just in a few small places? So far no one has posted any screenshots.

FWIW: I do a wipe, repartition, load the ROM and then reload all my apps from Marketplace every time I switch ROMs, so there's a fair amount of work involved, that's why I ask these questions; and yes, I know there are ways to back-up and restore my configs, but I just choose to do totally clean installs every time to totally eliminate any possibility of problems from old files/settings.

Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] crypysmoker:
Argh, lol Just put 2.2 back on last night after wasting my time to try and flash a few other new builds. Now gota jump on this.

And those that are *****ing about anything being pink GET OVER IT. HEs doing a very mature thing by promoting what he is, and its his rom. You dont like it, push different files.

Its just sux that so many idiots here have run him off to a different site.
[G1 Android Development] EWitsJan:
There is a little bit of pink not everything is pink. like when you go to market and you press install the install button will become pink. The scroll bars are also pink. Can't seem to find anything esle pink. I don't notice anything esle different just some apps like brpwser and peep open faster :D

But you should just wait for 2.5 I guess since he's going to add more pink haha & it might come out anytime soon.
[G1 Android Development] dipeshb:
Faster Apps?

Hmmm.. I noticed the GMail, Browser, Messaging opened faster... But before I opened them, I usually start the taskill App... I noticed that they are all pre loaded on first boot!!

This is fine, and doesnt seem to impare the performance of the ROM.. What I would like to know then is, how can I pre-load the "Answer Call" app, whatever its called, I STILL can only hear my ringtone after 5-6 rings after a self call test... This only happens the first time, and improves after a second test... But, knowing how Android will eventually kill off unsused tasks, this situation will crop up again..

MLIGN, if you are pre-loading Apps, can you let me know how this is done? Or how I could choose which apps pre-load (or is that the secret of your success?!!!)

Love where your going with these ROMs man!
[G1 Android Development] brian_v3ntura:
idiots didnt run him off the site. it was googles C&D scare. plus the other site he's on is basically his site so he can do wahtever he wants.
[G1 Android Development] crypysmoker:
Smarter people here might wana follow him to his site. Hes done with this place which I can fully understand. Ive only been here a lil over a week and its sad at how demanding, disrespectful and assinine some people can be.

Sadly, that also involves some of the other developers here who seem to think that since they can smack some files together they are god.

So, go to his site, donate, and dont expect any more major updates to be posted here by him.
[G1 Android Development] kevns:
Wish he would preload home screen so I would get loading.... for 10 seconds after 4 days of use just saying ..... great rom tho...

So after 5 days of use I ran into the black screen problem eveybody been talkin about. After the phone loads up all u seeis g1 then the screen goes black any ideas on howto fix this ?

And how do I go about wiping my ext ? I hear people sayin wipe ext but the never say how.
[G1 Android Development] brian_v3ntura:
download 7 zip:

http://www.7-zip.org/

this program will allow you to explore,push,extract things to/from the zip files of roms. just place the apks in the right folder.

i really dont recommend having apks pre installed tho, they can come into conflict with updates from markets and such.

i suggest downloading backup for root users if you hte reinstalling your apps one by one.

more details later if you are interested. i am currently in class.
[G1 Android Development] brian_v3ntura:
he is actually not done with XDA. he is still posting updates.
