I had 4.1.99 installed yesterday and I decided to wipe and install 4.1.999. Well everything is well and dandy, until I type something either in a text message or in my Twitter app(twidroid). When I start typing, it would sometimes start playing music inthe background.

I cant see the music notification until I hit the home button, or go to root task manager and hit refresh. I have a HTC DREAM(rogers) with apps2SD and all the good stuff. Is this a feature or a bug?
[G1 Android Development] daveid:
Mine were gone upon first boot, I had to sign back in to Google (the setup wizard popped up for me when I went to re-sync) and they are all there again. It was a little of a bother to redo my ringtones, just rebooted for the first time to be certain, and they are all still there.

If you didn't have to redo the setup wizard, I suggest creating an anycut shortcut for Setup Wizard, and re-sign into your account. This should clear up this problem for you.
[G1 Android Development] bolmedias:
Searching the thread would probably answer this, but whatever.

I'm guessing that you're using the HardSPL, which is the one you flash during the rooting process, so you don't need to flash a new one.

well i mean my sign in worked..and i been running the rom fine..but now random times my contacts dissapear and i cant send text.. so i just reboot if i cant text..or i auto sync my contacts bacc in.but its just annoying to do so everydaY!

I did a search for superuser and found nothing.

But any program that I try to run (not just WirelessTether, but Terminal, Autostarts and a few others) won't work at all.

Terminal, for example, just comes up saying "Permission Denied" without even asking for SU permissions.

Wireless Tether is unable to start tethering.

And Autostarts give me this in logcat:

I cant imagine that I lost root to the whole phone. But I guess it's possible.

Anyone have any suggestions?

This is a completely fresh install.

Reformatted my sdcard and started with nothing.

V4.2.8

I have been using Hero ROMS. Eclair Hero ROMS are coming along great but still no drivers for camera and lots of issues. I thought about trying a non hero ROM because I really like the new maps and Market ext. The new stuff that your ROM has is really fantastic although I really miss linking up my contacts with there Facebook accounts and seeing there updates and pictures in the Hero's Peoples application. Also, I have been spoiled when calling people. It's so easy to type the first few letters in there name and have there number and other matches come up.

Is there any way to include or modify to achieve the facebook and flickr functionality? Include the Hero dialer?

If not then I will just need to wait for Hero Eclair V2.1 (1.6) to grow up. Having a working camera is important to me. and I am really impressed with this ROM.

Messaging Notification

Hey all, so ever since cm 4.2.7.1 I cant seem to get the default messaging app to stop giving me notifications of new text messages. See I use handcent as my default texting app, so usually I go into the Messaging app's setting and turn off the notifications, but for some reason ever since 4.2.7.1 I can turn off notifications but it doesnt do anything i still get a notification from handcent and from the default messaging app. This is frustrating, did I miss something in this update? (Like another setting that i have to change or something) I had hoped it was just a bug in 4.2.7.1 but I just installed 4.2.8 and I still have the same problem. I have wiped my phone and just for kicks I even reformatted my sdcard and reinstalled all my apps so everything should be fine.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! thanks in advance!

4.2.8 bugs

HEllo,

I had just installed version 4.2.8 over 4.2.7.1. Unfortunately I had two issues.

1. The Home-Button doesn't do anything anymore. It neither closes an app nor does it switch to the first tab.

2. When clicking the close-button for a few secs i normally saw a menu ginving me four options (silentmode, flightmode, restart and shutdown). Now I'm missing both silentmode and flightmode options.

After reverting back to 4.2.7.1 by using the nandbackup, the issues are still there. So I guess it is some kind of an option that can be set.

Does anyne know anything about it?

Thanks in advance.
[G1 Android Development] mdi2001:
Worked fine for me on 32b. You should back up the stuff you want and do a full wipe and clean install
[G1 Android Development] oldsk00lz:
Cyanogen, your 4.2.8 ROM rocks. It seems to be running smoother than 4.1.7.1 which would occasionally have system lag it seemed.

First boot had my home pages empty, but my icons reappeared aftee a recycle.

I really like the new app tray. Looks sweet. Great job of getting the other developer's mods into you build, and much props to them as well.

After wiping, formatting SD and updating again, thsi problem is solved, but now I'm stuck with the following errors:

The proces com.android.calender stopped unexpectedly.

and

The proces Google apps com.google.android.googleapps stopped unexpectedly

What I already tried to solve it:

Flashing back to 4.2.7.1

Resetting to factory settings (via 1.4 recovery)

Wiping the SD card and fotmatting the SD card

repair ext filesystems (via 1.4 recovery)

Now I am running 4.2.8 and still getting these errors.

What else can I try to solve it??

Download the Hack, rename to boot.img, and put it on your sd card

Open terminal and type:

flash_image boot /sdcard/boot.img (enter)

reboot (enter)

then after your phone reboots, open terminal and type free, it should say 107xxx amount of free space.

It seems like the browser's gear functionality is not working since v4.2.6. This feature is actually required for location aware websites like google.com or gowalla.com to function properly.

[G1 Android Development] bmfc187:
With the way Cyan has his ROM setup after receiving his C&D from google, it takes some effort to fully restore. My advice to you is to wipe again, and then flash CyanogenMod 4.1.11.1 or 4.0.4, then flash CM 4.1.99 using the HTC 1.6 Recovery method, then flash back to 4.2.8. That works for me everytime i have problems. its kindof a pain in the arse but it should work.

[G1 Android Development] harpreet1988:
You can skip flashing 4.1.11.1 or 4.0.4 and start with the HTC 1.6 recovery image, since it restores everything.

BFS is normally quicker when running a variety of things at once (like streaming music over Bluetooth and using Bloo (Facebook app) or going between the camera and the browser. Otherwise, if you're not a heavy parallel app user then you'll see a slight improvement in speed I'm sure.

I did have issues in 4.2.7.1 where just about everything would cause the music player to launch (open the player and it starts playing immediately, incoming text, Advanced Task Manager killing all apps, etc) and I thought it was BFS kernel, but it wasn't. I haven't checked the bug list to see if it's been reported yet. When it starts playing, the "pause" icon is still enabled, so the player "thinks" the music is paused and not playing. Strange.

Also, with 4.2.8 (CFS and BFS) I don't get the USB mount prompt when I connect to my laptop. It worked in 4.2.7.1 and earlier.
[G1 Android Development] dubbeld00:
Since we are talking about bfs, don't know if someone made a version with BFS included (the kernel Cyanogen provided a few pages back), but I did :)

Signed, and has the BFS kernel in it. It is unsupported, so if you are having problems, please install the normal CFS version.

Tested and working correctly (as far as I can see). Have fun using it (or not)!

PLEASE HELP!! First, let me establish right away that I am new to this, with just enough tech know-how to be dangerous. With that in mind, I am stuck and need help:

I have a MyTouch 3G that I rooted several weeks back to 4.2.3.1 and it is working great - I love Cyanogen! The problem is since then I cannot upgrade to any newer version. I have tried using CMUpdater, installing from each .zip over the existing rom, and trying a clean install of each new version. I get the same thing every time: the phone reboots to the MyTouch3G boot screen and just sits there (I've allowed the phone to sit up to 30 minutes each time to see if it just needs time).

I REALLY want to figure this out but I don't know what to do at this point. ANY HELP is greatly appreciated!

I can't believe you would thank the guy, then complain about his ROM. I'm positive if you do a lot of studying, you can do something about the background of the freaking app drawer. This ROM is brilliant, and you find something to complain about. It's not even a bug or an issue. Nice post.

With that said, the icons in the app drawer now stand out and can be seen. Excellent work. I dig the new dialer. Great job incorporating that change.

I can never understand how so many of us can flash a ROM with no problem, and so many others get FCs, Market issues, etc. What can possibly be different about our devices? Apps? Themes? I had one FC with the stock ROM six months ago when I used the HTC keyboard. I haven't had one since. Not a single FC. I did experience the incoming-call crash issue pretty regularly, but since formatting my SD, factory reset, a reflash of the HTC recovery, and 4.2.6, 4.2.7, and 4.2.8, I haven't had that issue again.

Finally, as a newbie who has read every post in this thread and the previous, since getting the MT3G in July, can you guys make your posts worth reading? Every now and then I see a great post that explains the problem thoroughly, provides details of troubleshooting, etc. And I always appreciate knowledgeable responses, as they help all of us (thanks PsychoBoi.) I think it's great that you people have flashed a ROM and it is working super fast for you, or that you have had no problems, etc. But, why don't you tell us if you experienced lag, if you knew the root cause of the lag, and if you feel the new ROM has cleared it up, what you have done to test, etc. Someone else mentioned the incoming call crash issue. Who knows if it is fixed yet? Have someone call you, or set up Google Voice to dial your phone, about 100 times and see if it crashes. That's what I did and it seems to work fine (whereas before I would get a crash every two or three calls.) Make every post valuable to the others reading it. Don't post just to hear your own head rattle. Flame away. :D

Before we dive too deep into the Maps problem sea:

Maps isn't included in CyanogenMod - Hence your trouble isn't Cyanogen's, hence your questions don't belong here. There are lots of other thread revolving around Maps.apk, Your Maps trouble most is most likely caused by you having installed a hacked version of Maps at some point.
