[G1 Android Development] skrki:
Yes, you are right, unfortunately there isn't much that can be done about it.. people here will mostly disagree and start a flame war, just for the heck of it. Sadly (for them), they will only be proving their ignorance. So, you said yours, now I will say mine, and that will be the most we can ever do. The only thing that remains after that is to walk away, just like SK did.

As for all you fun-loving-spammers of this board, we know it's fun, and we know this is "dead" (or "been dead" for a while now), but if you could please be considerate to your fellow XDA-ers who:

a) May have real problems with the 4.2. branch, and are looking for solutions right now. This is still the biggest thread, and I imagine all the problems and solutions have been posted here, since the start of the branch.

b) May not want to update to the new release! Hasn't that crossed anyone's mind? Ever heard of the phrase "If it ain't broken, don't fix it!"? Heck, I've seen people running 4.0.4, well into 4.2 development, just because it is stable.

c) Still believe this thread is ALIVE, which it is, which is obvious to people with eyes. Who are you to decide it is dead and useless?? It will be dead when mods close it, and even then, it will still be available for searching. It will be useless, when CM5 goes stable, which is far

far

away, considering the ROM hasn't even been released yet. You are no mods of XDA, and you are no developers of Cyanogenmod, so show some respect to this community, which you are a part of.

d) I could go on... but let's hear it from you guys! :rolleyes:

Finally, a constructive suggestion (hey, gotta make the post worth reading, right :p) Here it goes... Open up a new thread in General section, call it "Are your pants wet yet?! CyanogenMod 5 COMING SOON to G1s near you!". That should do the trick..
[G1 Android Development] anbinhv:

[G1 Android Development] philosophics:
.... wow

that's all i gotta say.

that be a point loser right thirr mang...
[G1 Android Development] Binary100100:
Exactly. When CM 5.* is released we are going to need this thread dedicated to people who are having issues so that they can be helped. No need in posting something unless you have to because Cyanogen will have to read throught 50 pages of "Thank you!" posts and "I have a suggestion..." comments before able to respond to those that are having issues. And then at least 90% of those having issues don't realize that their problem likely isn't caused by the rom and could be solved if they explored the function of the Search option at the top of their screen.

Yet... after the release we will see about 215 posts saying "Flashing now" and "This runs great! Thanks", etc. I think they are all great... but out hidden in that mess is someone that really needs help that is likely going to be overlooked. Then to make it worse we'll get questions like "How do I flash this? Sorry I've searched and can't find the answer anywhere. I'm a noob." Which only annoy the Hell out of me! Especially if the answer is in the first post. We do not need any of that! This is a DEVELOPMENT thread. Not GENERAL. NOT Q&A. If you have something to say then say it either to eachother via private messages or in another thread. We need to try to cut down the clutter here. If I was a moderator (probably a good thing that I'm not) I would spend weeks cleaning out this thread and deleting posts. I would be that I could even cut this down to less than 50 pages. The last thread was closed because it got out of hand and I expect nothing less from this one. You could argue that it can't be helped and that it is a waste of time to even think that anything will change. Well here's food for thought... even this post is not directly related to the development of this thread and I would expect it to be deleted. How much more relevant is 90% of these posts? This post is a simply meant to rebuke and the only thing that it has related to the development and the assist of the rom is to speed it up by stopping you guys from taking up their time with such useless posts. We need to keep this thread clean, clutter and spam free.

EDIT:

Also let me add this. We already know that Endgadget, tmonews, androidcentral, and countless others have this thread bookmarked. Everything you say is public. Do you really want them to read your crap? Would you like them to post it for the millions to read? If not then don't bother hitting that REPLY button. The last several pages is really making us look bad. Honestly. For some reason they think that we're all professional with this. Don't know why they think that, but we are highly respected. We really should consider keeping that reputation. Don't you think?
[G1 Android Development] anbinhv:
sorry my bad!

so delete my post.

thanks!
[G1 Android Development] Mr. Frost:
This looks great. With everything working I would consider flashing an eclair rom. If it doesn't run as smooth as Super D or CSDI I think I still would go back to a donut build. For me there's nothing really essential. Or am I forgetting anything?
[G1 Android Development] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
Kinda wondering the same thing. With all the goodies from eclair that we have already had backported to donut roms, I'm wondering exactly what it is that we will receive in this full eclair rom that we don't currently have now. This is not a knock, but a serious question. I know we'll get the multi account support and facebook sync and that he's leaving out LWP, but what else am I missing. With me only having 1 gmail account and never been a "facebooker" I've kind of overlooked these things anyway so any pointers as to the Eclair exclusives this rom will provide would be greatly appreciated.
[G1 Android Development] zim2dive:
Personally I want the Bluetooth and other radio APIs available so that a) Timeriffic can turn them on/off (for battery management), b) use the Home++ button for Bluetooth instead of taking up home page space with an app. Speech to Text as well. I'm not sure what other goodies to expect.

I also only have 1 gmail, and don't FB.

But as any good geek.. I want the latest :)
[G1 Android Development] zim2dive:
Doing research on DangerSPL..

so apparently there are downsides? or has this been solved?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6055822&postcount=177
[G1 Android Development] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
Ok, so there's another feature I didn't know about. Good looking out. Unfortunately, I'm also not a BT user so me personally wouldn't get to enjoy this. Is speech to text like what you can do with better keyboard and say the words and it types it out for you? Is that the same thing, not sure if there is a differential there. However, your last line does sum it up pretty well, gotta have the latest!!!
[G1 Android Development] kusotare:
I think that must be an isolated incident, even though he claims it's a "we" problem. I've been running Danger SPL since haykuro released it way the hell back and I've never had problems with large apps. I've got several apps that range in the 10MB range, one or two even larger. Never had issue one with it.

Just make sure you have the right radio before you flash the SPL.

As for me, I'm looking forward to having the ability to have multiple gmail accounts. I've got 3 (and yes, they're all useful. personal, professional, website.)
[G1 Android Development] maxppp:
Ive got CM's latest 1.6 build, and although i want to get excited about 2.1, there is *nothing* that interests me. The UI and standard apps are the same, and you can forget about any speed increases.
[G1 Android Development] dangambino:
why should we forget about speed increases?

i got a feeling we'll be suprised at how fast it will be!! just a hunch!
[G1 Android Development] jasnmb:
one of the big reasons I want 2.1 is that more and more apps are starting to require 2.1. Even the Google mobile image search for iphone and android was recently redesigned, but the new version requires 2.1.

Or remember that google nav and gesture search were originally only for 2.x, but later they finally brought it to 1.6 phones.

Now we won't have to wait for app developers to cater to the forgotten 1.6 users.

[G1 Android Development] Chosen_on184:
Just want g1 to catch up to my nexuss ..bring on the updates
[G1 Android Development] schtuka:
Don't forget about future evolution of the roms based on CM, I am sure it gives more room for development and implementation of other future goodies from other phone models based on 2.1. Porting eye-candy and apps and future OTA's with who knows what. It is a step in development, it is a base for more stuff and inspiration for upcoming designers and devs. Sadly, this is probably last hooray for the G1.
[G1 Android Development] JoeSzymkowicz:
If CM 5 doesn't require DangerSPL, what SPL should I load. I have Danger on right now, but if another one would perform better I would gladly move to that one. Suggestions?

If you don't need to change SPLs, then don't. Keep what you have. If you want to try other ROMs in the future that won't be using Firerat's cache hack, then you'll need DangerSPL. I recommend taking the leap.

[G1 Android Development] jdhore:
I should mention in reference to all the people saying that CM5 won't have LWPs and Launcher2, you can still pull the LWP apk's and/or the launcher2 apk from another Eclair ROM (like OpenEclair or SuperEclair or CaNNoN's Eclair), put them on your phone (either adb pushing them to /system/app or installing them from SD like with any apk) and have them fully working with hardware-accelerated 3D goodness and all that.

I'm also reasonably sure that someone will probably release a mod of CM5 just with the bling added on (CM5-spinners anyone? :P).
[G1 Android Development] mattseg:

[G1 Android Development] jasnmb:
nice! so why did he leave them off? to save system memory or something?
[G1 Android Development] Shidell:
Out of curiosity, the G1/myTouch use an MSM7k chipset (7200 series), does anyone know if the GL driver is compatible with other 7k chipsets, like the Vogue, Kaiser, Nike and Polaris?

I'm particulary intrigued as Cyanogen indicated that he has managed full acceleration as well as Live Wallpapers in his upcoming release, and to do so would require compatible GL drivers.

If that's true, it means the Android community for the older devices would also greatly benefit from such a GL driver.

Thoughts?
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
So I'm guessing that the new CM will be using the updated A2SD that FR developed?

I noticed a big speed increase when moving from CM to CE... it would be nice to see this carried back over to CM.
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Agreed! That is indeed the best write-up I've seen, and ciwrl is a reputable guy who knows what he's talking about. My only question is that I'm not coming from CM, but instead from Complete Eclair 2.0 which uses the "cachehack." I'm not sure if that would change the procedure for me or not.
[G1 Android Development] jdhore:
I'm not cyanogen so i can't say definitively(sp?), but i'm guessing its to save space and LWPs and Launcher2 use a ****-ton of RAM so they're not exactly efficient. Also, in my experience and opinion, CM isn't about the bling and it never has been. He's never used a custom launcher or black bar mod or loaded it up with widgets or really any software on top of stock, rooted Android (SpareParts, Terminal, SuperUser and Development Tools don't really count).

I personally like this. I don't care for the rubbish bling factor which is why i like CM so much.
[G1 Android Development] carlsbad0331:
Well, Im knee deep in to installing Danger... I need to be ready when all of our dreams come true!!!

[G1 Android Development] Christopher3712:
Modified Livewallpapers.apk

You can also use the modified version of LWP that was put out in some of the earlier eclair ROMs. I don't remember which ROM I pulled it from, but I held on to the modified LiveWallpapers.apk if anyone wants it. If I recall correctly, these were scaled down somewhat to improve performance. I'll be installing that into CM5 once it's released. If someone could please remind me who did such a great job of changing the LWP, please mention it as i'd like to give them proper credit. I'm at work right now, but I think I can find a workaround (i'm blocked from file-sharing sites) to upload the apk. Give me a sec and i'll post a link.

Find your modified livewallpapers.apk here.

is there a way to check which spl i have on my phone...i cant remember what the last one i flashed was?
[G1 Android Development] carlsbad0331:
Ok, I followed the freshly posted instructions for flashing DangerSPL.

I verified about 30x that I had the correct radio, and YES Im putting it on a G1.

Downloaded the files, transferred to SD card and flashed exactly as instructed.

Then when the phone finally rebooted it did not ask me to re-register with Google again. I was right back at my desktop, with all of my programs installed.

Since I installed the defanged again, and then re-flashed 4.2.15.1 shouldnt it be asking me to start over?

My reason for asking is I am just curious if the DangerSPL flashed correctly.

As I said, everything went exactly as stated in the instructions...

[G1 Android Development] philosophics:
I'm not mad at anyone or telling anyone what to do. I'm just summing up what was said a few posts up by someone else.

In other words people, we're not supposed to tell Cyanogen thank you anymore or let him know that we're excited for his work. Can't let him know we had a smooth install either. I guess that's what twitter is for now.

And this stuff makes everyone BUT cyanogen mad so don't do that either...

If you don't have a rom problem then don't speak.

That is what's been said. If you ask me, those pointless rants are in the wrong section. But it really doesn't matter to me cause I have to leave this thread alone now. So if anyone has a reply to this message, don't bother cause I won't read it. That and you'd be posting garbage for the noobs to sort through. So don't be a hypocrite...
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Actually you're holding the wrong button. ;) Holding Home will boot into recovery, but holding CAMERA will get you into the bootloader, so you can check your SPL version.
[G1 Android Development] billquinn1:
To confirm it has installed properly, power on the DREAM with Power+Camera to enter the bootloader. When you are done, press CALL + MENU + END to leave the bootloader

[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
That's fine for MT3G... or you can find the newer radio I have in my sig. I don't remember exactly where I got it from, maybe in the forum here somewhere... but, you don't NEED it.

From my understanding, it gives better cell and data reception - maybe even more... but I might be wrong, I'm no dev... and I don't recall any difference after I did it.

Also, since I've got your attention... if you have a 1st gen MT3G (the one without the headphone jack on the top) you don't need to change SPLs. I'm on the stock one still and have had no problems flashing any ROMs. As for the other MT3G versions - I don't know anything about those.

I have a feeling you have expressed your thanks to Cyan enough. I am sure he appreciates it. He's probably disappointed that we all haven't posted, 65 or 70 times, how excited we are to be waiting for this ROM.

just follow this: http://twitter.com/Cyanogen
[G1 Android Development] PorchSong:
Hmmm, I have a few questions:

1. Will be able to use Backup for root to "reinstall" all our current appz and databases? Or, by doing this will it overwrite appz that are specific to 2.1? And is the directory structure the same so databases will be placed in proper location? And, will backup for root know where to place things moving from 1.6 to 2.1?

2. Does this build use Apps2sd by default or does it have to be enabled, etc.

I am prepping my phone for new rom and want to make sure I don't lose anything in the wipe / install. For example, Shazam stores its tags in the data/data/com.shazam. or something directory and don't want to lose those tags because of reinstall.
[G1 Android Development] ivanmmj:
It will probably cause all kinds of problems if you just flash without wiping. Backing up the databases MIGHT work, but I haven't tried it across OS versions.

Assuming I already have Radio - 2.22.23.02 (Current Hboot is 0.95.3000 Engineering)

With the exception that in this post http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Dream_Bootloader it says that " When you are flashing NON-matching SPLs, you must use FASTBOOT" i.e. going from a 0.95.3000 Engineering to a 1.33.2005 Danger
