Feedback needed from Magic folks not Mytouch

Folks with a Magic not a Mytouch that have applied my updated for v.2.0.

Please respond back if your wifi is working agian or not since I can not test it myself.

Thanks in advance,

ttran001
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] trstn.nguyen@gmail.com:
ohh i guess its not the same issue.

Not all of my texts are affected. Sometime, usually the receiving ones are out of order. It would show a response before the text I sent out.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] woon.moon:
I had the same problem on stock rom

vodafone magic 32B
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tfoteh:
I have another question haha.

I am looking to buy a new A2DP headset. I understand that with this rom the music will work but will I hear the phone ring or be able to answer it through the headset?

Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] suur13:
Yes, WiFi is working now after the patch !

Otherwise very nice, and clean ROM.

SMS is OK for me too.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] WebghostDK:
Wifi now works, thank you :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
Thank you for the response.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vsguru:
No, phone ring, answer or any calling related features will not work through BT yet. There is a BT fix for the 32B (MT3G) w/Hero that allows all BT functions to work but it involves turning your 32B into a 32A, a new radio, ROM, etc. Not for the faint-hearted for sure and NOT for me. I'll wait until ttran (or someone) figures it out. Not worth the risk to me. Search xda to find it if you're interested.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] x1tyme:
After running 2.0 for whole day. My phone got stuck at HTC screen after crashed.Usually it reload the screen and happen after I used Taskiller

but I can still slide down notifications bar LOL

anybody?? :cool:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
That sounds very strange and yes is anybody else having this issue?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] suur13:
I had a crash when visiting one webpage full of Flash.

Phone got stuck for some minutes (not responding any way to anything)

and then soft-rebooted (without splash1, but when those stupid androids

show up :p).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
So did it come back on-line or is it still stuck?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] suur13:
Yes, after quick soft-reboot everything was OK again and even that same web-page worked fine on next try.

What I wanted to say was that resource hogging applications CAN cause freezing, crashes and reboots.

* - I know, flash pages are PITA on mobile.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
Thank you for the update.

I'm waiting to come up with some more money to buy a replacement phone before creating a new rom.

I have some new ideas but want to hold off until I get the replacement phone.

I hope I will have enough money by the end of this month but not sure yet.

Hang in there folks, my roms will get better in time.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] x1tyme:
This crashed probably my fault. I've setup linux-swap to high, it went berserk after 24hrs....:eek:.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] WebghostDK:
Guys try going into Airplane mode and then lock your magic.

Press now any button to wake it up, and wait with slide down (to unlock)

Does it fail at yours 2?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] suur13:
Had similar crash today, when checking the SMS app (no new SMS was arriving, just cchecking the old ones). This time no soft-reboot, but all the buttons were lighted up (kind of indication that device is buzy ?).

Had to remove the battery. Now it's OK again.

I have 96MB swao with swappiness 60. Not many apps and widgets installed and almost nothing runs in backround (I have turned off all automatic data syncs in Email, Wheather, Google apps, Peep etc. even GPS, 3G, BT and Mobile Always On are off). Phone is pretty clean.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
Just checking, but is your 96MB swap a swap partition or are you using swapper?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
Can some one else please try and see if it fails?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] suur13:
Separate partition no. 3 (no. 2 is missing from between 1 & 3 - there is some empty space). "Swapper for Root users" app is installed, where I manage swappiness, point to the right partition and get memory information where needed...

What is swapper ?

Separate swap file in NAND ?

Is that same as CompCache ?

I've always understand that linux swap partition is way to go in 32B and never bothered myself with swap file and/or CC.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
Hi,

I should have stated it better on the first page, which I've just updated.

This rom requires at least a 96mb swap partition to run smoothly.

Also, please do not use swapper as I've already hard coded the swappiness at 60.

Please partition your sdcard according to my first post or a similar post.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] WebghostDK:
I would like to define the "fail".

When i go into airplane mode and the screen does timeout.

As soon as i press any button and wait like 1-2 seconds before i unlock, it takes me directly to "Enter pincode" :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] suur13:
I have 96MB Linux swap partition, but why I need this ext2/3 part. when ROM does not use it and nobody in their Magic uses it ?

EDIT: Regarding the Airplane mode - it unlocks the screen fine (doesn't matter which way I do it - with drag or with menu key), but then goes immediatly to Emergency Dialer screen. Is that normal ?

After this dialpad I can go to home screen tough. I do not have SIM PIN defined, BTW.

But the problem came, when I tried to get out from the Airplane mode - phone cold-rebooted when trying to find the network (starting from splash1 and one vibrate). Never had this issue before.

EDIT 2: Tried again, this time with SIM PIN enabled, but I did not get the Enter Pincode screen !

Also no reboot after getting out from Airplane. But still get the Emergency screen after screen unlock in Airplane mode.

Tried third time, again without PIN. No reboot after coming from Airplane.

What can I say, 3 random reboots in three days. All of them not repeatable...

EDIT 3: Un-installed Swapper app. Let's see, does it help.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
In the current version I still using a2sd, the app_s and dalvik-cache resides on the rom but the app and app-private goes to the sdcard on the ext2/ext3 partition.

The main reason I'm still using this is for the folks that have a lot of apps.

This is also helpful when you flash a lot of roms, that way your apps are stored and on the sdcard and do not get wiped out.

I will upload an update to turn off the a2sd feature for folks that don't want or use it.

Also, thanks for the feedback.

ttran001
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
Update for v2.0 to turn off a2sd

Folks,

I've just uploaded an update to for folks who do not wish to use A2sd.

It's been added to the Update for version 2.0.

I'm not able to test it since I don't have a phone.

Please test and let me know if it works, if not I will have to wait for my brother to come home and use his phone to test it.

Lastely, this is for the mytouch users only until I get a hold of his phone.

Thanks,

ttran001
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alexrodri0:
i jus installed the rom but im having issues sending and recieving mms?? help any one?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] suur13:
Where's that update ?

I can't see it... it's added to the Wi-Fi update ?

Can I apply it safely again even when I already applied the orig. WiFi update ?

BTW, I've never used ext2/3 partition and still your ROM runs fine 99,9% of the time. And all may installed apps go to the /data partition autmatically.

Regarding the MMS issue - check your APN settings.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
My main goal is to provide the best possible roms to my users.

I know that I'm the new guy on the android roms but will in time create better and more stable roms.

Development for my roms will have to slow down for awhile until I'm able to buy a replacement one.

Being as the market is right now, might take awhile.

I was shooting for next month but most likely not going to happen now.

The link is below.

http://www.4shared.com/file/149381576/7cfd5069/Update-Turn-Off-A2sd.html

I had to remove the original one since I found out that it did not work correctly after testing it on my brothers phone.

After reviewing the A2sd script in detail, it would make sense that since you do not have an ext2/3 partition during boot it should have error out and continued to boot without moving the app to /system/sd/app.

I originally wanted to get rid of the A2sd but then since I was flashing roms almost everyday wanted away to keep from having to restore my apps.

Other users had requested the same thing and that's why I had to edit the A2sd script to meet users needs.

Going forward I'm going to offer two versions one with the modified A2sd and one without A2sd.

After removing the swapper app, are you having any other issues?

Regards,

ttran001
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] suur13:
Don't worry too much ttran, take your time !

Nobody's rushing you in the development. We understand, if it takes time, then it takes time.

Regarding the issues: No crashes, but on one hard flash page, browser and phone got stuck for several minutes (not responding any way), but it recovered by himself and continued fine from there.

Could be anything, bad connection, stupid web designer, lot of active inquieries/connections (you know, sports live-score, that's the flash thingy), but could can also be bad resource management from the kernel side (CPU usage and right clock management).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
Some new updates later on tonight or tomorrow morning

Folks,

I'm going to upload some new updates to include the following.

1. Updated Rosie to include Droid wallpaper.

2. Going to drop the cpu down to 245760 in crease battery life.

3. Also going to upload a Lite version without most of the widgets, sounds, strip Rosie, and etc.

4. Other things I've forgot about...lol

Regards,

ttran001
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] x1tyme:
Tonight should be good :D.

btw..I'm having random loading screen...:eek: from time to time. Should I increase my linux-swap. I'm at 96mb swap
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Fouad1013:
Not Loading

This is the first time im installing a Sense Rom on my MT3G, just got it on saturday, i was running CyanogenMod 4.2.3, but i wanted a sense rom. anyways, i installed your rom, and it just wouldnt load, i would get the first splash screen that says my touch 3g, then the screen with the androids that pop up, then a screen that says HTC, it would stay on that one, then it would go back to the screen with the androids, and it just keeps repeating, never passing the HTC screen.

Edit, sorry about that i wiped it and installed the rom again, this time it worked.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
Working on an update build

Folks,

Barrowed my brothers mytouch for a week so I'm testing out a new build.

It's more of an update with newer apks and framework.

All in all it's been running fairly smooth today.

Going to test it some more and then cleaning it up some.

Also, going to replace some of the Rosie wallpaper with the Droid.

More update to come as they arrive.

Regards,

ttran001
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] chancas:
I tried yestarday version 2.0 of the ROM on my Magic 32B and works really well!!

Congratulations for all your work.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tfoteh:
Is it just me or is the onscreen keyboard randomly laggy? It is very annoying. Is there anything that can be done about that?

When I say laggy I mean that sometimes it takes for ever to come up. And when it does eventually come up, the keys take for ever to register and you end up typing something totally different.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bennyliu:
Good Rom

Just tried it out today. It's SUPER good and runs so FAST !

Nice build ! Looking forward to your new versions ! (will it support ext4 ? )

Thanks !

(May I ask, why the "footprints" widget is always deleted from the ROMs ? :p)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] WebghostDK:
...

Could we expect the new Sense UI build here? :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
Folks,

I've been out sick the past few days.

Going to start on a new rom today.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tfoteh:
Very nice to hear! Thanks TTran.

I have a question for everyone as well. When you charge your phone does it turn off? I will unplug my phone but still see the LED. No buttons seem to work so I have to take out the battery and restart. This only happens once in a while.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
It's has to do with the kernel.

The best way to prevent it for now is to press and hold the menu button until the device when connecting to the usb cable.

After the usb sign has appeared on the top left handside, simply let go of the menu button.

This has happend to me in the past as well.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vsguru:
Hey all, this seems to happen to ANY power connection, not just a USB computer connection. I plugged in my A/C charger and it did the same thing :-( ttran001's trick does work, just have the screen on and active when you plug in the adapter and you're good to go.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] x1tyme:
BFS

ttran001 --

Since I'm waiting for your new update, will BFS work with OTPA??..I want to test around a bit...

and are you planning to theme your rom?? :D. If you don't have the time..it fine.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
I've already been working on the next release and the beta team member have already tested it.

There are still some issues I want to resolve before making it public.

The new rom is running smoother than 2.0, but still have some issue I want to fix first.

As for the theme, I'm going to go with a black theme, I want to make some of the stuff darker in color.

I'm not big on bright colors...lol

Hang tight folks,

ttran001
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tfoteh:
Hey ttran,

Any updates on when you plan to release the next version? Also, what are the new features?

I am just very excited haha.

thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] x1tyme:
Gosh can't wait no longer LOL...:eek:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] DogEater008:
Hi,

I was wondering if the next rom is going to be 1.6 instead of the current version which is 1.5. I really want sense UI, but also wanted the new google navigation, which only supports 1.6 and up i believe....

Thanks,
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] neok44:
anyway to add the normal lock screen. Idk but i don't really like the transparent one personally.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
If more people want the normal lock screen, please respond back.

That way I can make an update to add the lock screen back in.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kingwild:
I am stuck in an arabic rom with bootloader 2.56.494.7

Can I flash this rom to change it and how do I need to format the sdcard to make it work ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
It's coming....Version 3.0...

Not sure if anybody is interested or not.

But here is a snap of what is coming, shooting for today if possible.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I'm interested ttran:)regards
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] x1tyme:
My vote on normal lockscreen, but would love transparent notifcations bar.

Can't wait for this theme rom of yours. :cool:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tazz9690:
i just flashed your rom for the first time today ttran, I am very impressed. Is the 3.0 going to be a no wipe update? Also, will the people fc be fixed in this release? Not really a big problem, but just curious. I am loving your work. Thanks for this rom.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
I've made many changes so a wipe will be required.

There will also be another version without bt, which should run a lot smoother then with bt due to the new core.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
Uploading version 3.0

Folks,

I'm uploading version 3.0 one with bt music and one without.

I've also made an update for the Magic folks to fix their wifi issue as well.

Lastely, I've changed the lock screen back to the original one used on version 1.2.

Which means it's no longer clear.

Enjoy,

ttran001
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] legend221:
Looks incredible. How does this compare speed wise to the Cyanogen Rom however.

Please don't rip me a new one just for asking, lol
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bouyark:
If I am not mistaken, the only hero working bluetooth rom on the board. Can't wait for the update.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] x1tyme:
bt is for music only right or it 100% working??
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
Cyanogen's roms the best in my book and it's pretty hard to make a hero rom run as fast.

I mean it possible, but I don't feel mine are up to that speed yet.

I'm more focus on creating a stable and usable rom rather than just speed.

ttran001
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
Sorry music only..

I've spent most of my time since the last release to try and get the rest of bt to work but no luck.

I'm compared all system files and boot.img but still no luck.

Still working on it bro.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] darkstar38:
Just wanted to say I was excited about trying this rom the pic you posted looks great. BUT tried flashing 3.0 w/ no bt 3 times on mt3g(wiped everything). When it boots up after htc screen, service and battery life are visible but the screen is just black, it did this every time, I even redownloaded the file to make sure it was not corrupted. If I reboot phone after the intitial boot up from black screen, it gets stuck on green my touch screen.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
Please confirm the following.

32B device (Mytouch or Magic but will require the wifi fix)

Cleared out the following:

app_s/*.*

dalvik-cache/*.*

and a wipe

I've tested this rom with my bothers mytouch and my beta testers have tested the bt version, but both were created using the same apks and frameworks.

Please try the above if you have not done so already, if you have then we can figure out something else.

best of luck,
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tazz9690:
why is there a need for a wifi fix? My wifi works just fine on my MyTouch 3G. Am I missing something here?

Btw, I just flashed the 3.0 w/o bluetooth. It is an awesome rom. I like the lock screen better than the one in the 2.0. Everything is smooth and has given me no troubles. I like the rosie bar at the bottom. It took me a while to figure out which one was the middle screen since there is no longer that indicator at the bottom, but once I figured it out, it was smooth sailing from there. Thanks ttran001 on another great ROM.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
The kernel I'm using gives the Magic folks issues with their wifi.

I found that out from version 2.0, so I had to create an update using a different kernel and etc to fix their wifi issue.

The mytouch folks should have not problems with wifi.

The rom itself is pretty much hassel free, just flash and go.

There is no need to do anything extra afterwards.

ttran001
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] WebghostDK:
Ttran i just flashed the new 3.0 ROM.

I must say im impressed, i didnt setup any swap yet and it is just smooth :| I like it!!

Thumbs up, u deserve my last donation ! :)

Warning:

Do not install the Google Maps update from Market, if you do so, your Google Maps will no longer function, since the update are for Android 1.6 and not Android 1.5.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tazz9690:
One thing I did notice. In 2.0, there was an OTPA.txt on the fat32 of my sd card. I didn't delete it. Do I still need that for 3.0 or is it safe to delete without messing up the user.conf?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] shovelhead83:
you have got to be kidding me! i am liking this rom. only ten minutes so far but time will tell. this rom has the fastest keypad to landscape switch of any hero rom i have tried. (and i think i have tried them all). so far i have not found a rom that could pull me away from dwangs. could this be the one. hmm! only time, fc's, rebooting, or reloading screens will tell. im running mt3g, 96 swap ext3. drum roll please!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] darkstar38:
Ya its a my touch 32b.

Cleared out dalvik-cache and sd ext partition, and wiped. Running magic 1.2.3g recovery.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tfoteh:
I kinda liked the 2.0 lock screen haha.

Going to give 3.0 a try and flash soon. Thanks for your work ttran.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tfoteh:
doublepost
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tfoteh:
Thank you very much ttran for your hardwork. I honestly like OTPA 2.0 much better than 3.0. One of the main reasons I began using OTPA was because you made it look like the stock sense UI, not to mention it being extremely stable.

I might actually switch back to 2.0 for a while until you find a full Bluetooth fix.

Thanks again for your work ttran.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
Some more people pm me asking the same thing.

Next week I will upload an update to turn the current version 3.0 to the stock look as well.

I want to make sure that all my users are happy.

Also, there will be another update to disable A2sd for folks that don't use it.

ttran001
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
The otpa.txt file is only a log file, if you delete it will auto create itself on the next reboot.

It's to track and show that the system is updating as I've set it up to.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
One of my friends had a similar issue, not saying that this is the same case.

It end up being something wrong with his sdcard.

What about trying another card or another hero rom to confirm.

Best Regards,

ttran001
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ttran001:
Need more feedback

I notice this with every release of my roms.

It seems as if my rom users are either not liking my roms or just don't like to post.

There are many download from each release but very few feedback provided.

I'm not trying to pressure people into posting messages, I just want to know if your enjoying my roms and work.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] wrxphantom:
a 32a version would be much appriciated very much so. looks sick would like to get out of my current rom for this rom....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tazz9690:
What kind of input are you looking for? I will gladly give my input. I've seen a lot of dev's that just post roms and don't even ask for input, they just do what they want and don't care much for people's 2 cents that use their ROM. It's good to see that you are not one of those who post lesser quality work.

I have not gotten one single load screen, reboot, or the phone not waking up from sleep since I flashed the 3.0 within the first hour that it was posted. I have widgets on every one of my screens, which is really impressive that I have not had anything go wrong yet. There have been no touchflo fc's either, or any fc's related to the ROM for that matter.

This is the most stable ROM I have tried alongside with Qtek's. I think it is actually better, and I didn't think I would ever find one that actually beat his. One thing I did notice, was that this does slightly drain the battery more than some other Hero ROM's I have tried. Any reason why that is? I am running the No BT version.

Once again, great work ttran001, this ROM is definitely a keeper. Hope this is at least sort of the feedback you were looking for.
