[G1 Android Development] QMAN101:
I believe that you need an ulnocked sim card for the APN list to show up. It is not too useful without an unlocked sim.

Look for vending.apk
[G1 Android Development] pensive:
Umm, where can I get the old clock widget?

God! The new "Andy Varhol" clock widget is super fugly, how can I get the old

clock back?
[G1 Android Development] snottily:
it isn't the SIM that is locked or unlocked, it's the phone (so that it only accepts the carrier's sim card - or any, if unlocked)...

using an unlocked vodaphone branded HTC magic, i wonder about the massive APN list, too, btw ;)
[G1 Android Development] jedinger:
BTW, I tried the maps thing again...It worked fine.
[G1 Android Development] velazcod:
I tried searching for this, didn't found anything so I'm not sure if it has happened before.

Before I give out the problem, it only happens from 4.2.7 - 4.2.8, I had to go back to 4.2.6, in order to fix the problem, not even a wipe fixed it.

So here's the problem, whenever I get a gtalk text, and I go to reply, typing is really messed up, everytime I type a character it's as if I was trackball and going UP everytime I hit space... SPACE = SPACE+UP

Only a reboot fixes it, but the problem starts again a few minutes after, it starts with google talk, but once it does, the same thing starts happening with messaging, typing on the browser, twidroid, etc. yeap, really annoying..

I tried checking the log and I really don't see anything out of order..really weird stuff..

does anyone know what this might be?
[G1 Android Development] jmelinte:
I've already activated it. It was working before I rooted. Any reason rooting would have deactivated it?
[G1 Android Development] jmelinte:
My Nandrdoid backup stopped working since updating to 4.2.8. It was working fine with 4.2.7, but now, I keep getting the "Error running nandroid backup. Backup not performed." message. I tried mounting the card and deleting the nandroid folder several times, but it hasn't helped.
[G1 Android Development] Aaron!:
I was having MASSIVE ISSUES with my update from 4.2.6 -> 4.2.8 (I skipped 4.2.7) with no-wipe. Total chaos. I was lucky if I could even access the reboot menu, let alone make a phone call or even open the app drawer.

Specifically, I was getting a cycle of force closes, especially proc.acore, but also apps.calendar and a slew of other apps I never even launched. I noticed the market app had an error icon, but I couldn't even try to launch it or even open the app drawer due to the endless force closes.

Determined not to wipe, I tried a few things, and the solution that finally worked was one suggested by DumbestCrayon:

I recommend this to anybody coming from a recent (4.2.x) CMod version having trouble with 4.2.8, it could save you a wipe and a lot of trouble. The crucial step that saved the day was re-flashing the HTC_UPDATE, then redoing the CM update (no wipe). After doing this, it works smooth as ice, latest Google Maps installed flawlessly from the market, no random music (so far), everything great.
[G1 Android Development] rolflin:
I have some issues with a 32B model recently rooted with 4.2.7 and now 4.2.8

ALT keys are not working at all.

Anyone found something like this?
[G1 Android Development] omario117:
To everybody running into the Maps issue:

What are you guys doing after installing 4.2.8?

I just wiped and flashed. Then I booted up, went to Market and updated and my problem was solved. I then proceeded to apply the red m_blend, and thenadd everything, and all is fine for me.

It seems I was running into the problem previously when I tried to update Maps AFTER flashing an m_blend theme. Not sure if something in there is breaking it, but this worked for me.
[G1 Android Development] ^iCemaN:
I went back to 4.2.7.1 and now cannot get gmail to work...I has the same problem as you did with 4.2.8...NO GMAIL SYNC...:(
[G1 Android Development] jikei:
It's not totally CM related, but my Market updated itself. T-Mobile, running CM 4.2.8.

Market is now version 1.66.

I went to buy an app and it only showed the CC option, however the top three tabs "Apps/Games/Downloads" is now "Apps/Games/T-Mobile" - which goes to "T-Mobile Top Picks" which basically is the same as that "T-Mobile AppPack" but now built into the market.
[G1 Android Development] rolflin:
I had the same when i updated to 4.2.5

Sorry to say that the ONLY way was:

wipe

format ext on sd

flash htc 1.6 , it began to work again with no FC

flash cyanogenmod (any version) , still working!

And now 4.2.8 everything seems to be running ok on my phone
[G1 Android Development] andonnguyen:
Yup. ;)
[G1 Android Development] ^iCemaN:
Can anyone help me with GMAIL SYNC??? I tried the HTC_UPDATE then installed 4.2.8 but still cannot sync with GMAIL...Anyone out there has the same problem?:confused:
[G1 Android Development] mramonks:
Thanks for your help. I upgraded my recovery to amon ra 1.5.2 and it has a battery reset in.

Thanks again
[G1 Android Development] Eduardo911:
still getting strange market problems and I have no idea why

completely wiped sd, all partitions, wiped phone, flashed completely stock htc 1.6 then cyan. havent even metamorphed a theme in this time

and still having weird market issues. some apps do not show up when searching (off the top of my head, searching for 'doom' gets none of the expected results, like the 8 different versions of it that used to be there. had to install it from the apk from the dev's site)

also, pretty much any app that i update will update successfully, but then the app will just forceclose when i try to run it. until i reboot, and then the app is fine.

tried fix_permissions, using a new spl to have more /system room in case that was the issue, tried rm'ing /data/data/com.android.vending/* and still the same issues

this has been happening since the 4.2.6 or 7 series, i think. never had these issues on 4.2.5 (at least until i tried screwin with build.trout.prop to get maps navigation working, but that was like 20 wipes ago and thats all stock now)

any ideas? anyone get similar issues? feel like i'm taking crazy pills
[G1 Android Development] Eduardo911:
also, protected apps that i have purchased do show up and download correctly. however, they never update, says 'installation unsuccessful.' they have to be removed and reinstalled to get updated
[G1 Android Development] Carloswithac:
Sometimes my Gmail will stop synching. I see that other people are having the same problem as well. Any ideas? I've cleared Gmail Data and Storage.

Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] skrki:
You don't have enough physical memory to handle such large pages...as someone already stated. You can try swapping, that in my case helps to prevent the crash, but renders browser pretty much unusable.. however, you can access the menu and close the problematic window. At least you dont loose other windows and all the pages you've opened.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Cyanogen, what do you think about adding stuff rom the Nexus one dump?
[G1 Android Development] AustinKnight45:
I don't have any prob with Dolphin Browser. CM THx 4 THa Update 4.2.8.1;)
[G1 Android Development] bunu:
i would (and pretty sure everyone else will) if you fully theme to make your roms look like android 2.0

i hope you take it into consideration or are you already trying to make that happen? lol

i'm pretty sure you get that a lot. but i still love your roms.!!!
[G1 Android Development] shata:
Wow your amazing cyanogen i just told you about the Sms unicode thing yesterday and u push up date haha. Ur sweet dude. =)
[G1 Android Development] xjjjay:
Does this .1 update fix the random song playing issue? (If a song is loaded into the player, it will spontaneously begin playing apparently without the music player knowing)
[G1 Android Development] happyface_0:
I had a huge crashing issue with both dolphin and integrated browsers.
[G1 Android Development] DOHCtor:
Gears in browser fixed yet?
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Yeah its seems ok for now..
[G1 Android Development] AustinKnight45:
I'm a wiper, for instance with this new rom 4.2.8.1 Ill wipe my Dalvik-Cache and do a Factory Reset then flash the rom. I do this because in the past I've had browser crashes and apps not working and it all goes back to a wipe will fix it. Also to do all these wipes I use RA-dream-v1.5.2 recovery so it just makes life a lot more enjoyable to always have a smooth working CM rom.
[G1 Android Development] 2girls1cup:
does the dialer in this version have the plus sign for adding contacts in place of the voicemail icon? I like that version.
[G1 Android Development] DOHCtor:
delete

double post
[G1 Android Development] DOHCtor:
Any of you guys also getting this when trying to update?

E:Can't chown/mod /system/
(Too many open files)
E:Failure at line 61:
set_perm_recursive 0 0 0755 0644
System:

I check the md5sums and everything is what it should be. I tried twice and still get the same result. Good thing I did a nandroid backup.
[G1 Android Development] shata:
Awesome sms "%(*&%(*" is fixed =)
[G1 Android Development] shata:
Mine worked fine just updated to it.
[G1 Android Development] Mickey G:
The system audio files are removed during the update, for some reason. You need to go to Cyanogen's site and download the Audio Resource files and reinstall them to the SD card.

That should fix it when you reassign your notifications.
[G1 Android Development] CappyQ:
He wasn't asking about notifications. He was asking about an issue in which the last opened song will begin playing randomly without touching the phone.
[G1 Android Development] Mickey G:
Did he plug the phone into a computer through USB or put it on a charger? Couldn't that initiate a tone?

I had the same issue when I plugged it in, then realized there were no audio tones (hence it was using the music files on my card).

Simple way to answer that though: go into Notifications and see if there are any audio system files.
[G1 Android Development] CappyQ:
I'm not sure what he did, but I experienced the issue he mentioned. I was sitting on my bed on the other side of the room and the last opened song began playing multiple times without any associated notification or USB connection.
[G1 Android Development] DOHCtor:
Well, I tried a 5th time and it still fails. Oh well, I'll just wait for the next major release since I don't text in different languages anyways.
[G1 Android Development] jedinger:
Man, I've had nothing but problems since 4.2.5.

I can't download a damn thing now, market, cm updated, nothing. Do I need to update the radio or something, or should I wipe?
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
I've literally spent the last 8 hours debugging it. There is a very twisty maze to wind down thru. I know how to reproduce it reliably and exactly what's happening but I haven't figured out how to fix it yet :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] shata:
what radio u have?
[G1 Android Development] shata:
oh cyanogen i know it wasnt on fix list but when i add widget for pic frame it trys to take me over and over to Cam instead of bringing up the Gallery. Just to let ya know. Takes like 3-4 times of adding the widget till it brings up option to go to gallery.
[G1 Android Development] cl2eep:
Dude, I can't believe we're here at the back of this huge thread and you are still asking if your problems are related to not wiping? If you flash and have no issues you didn't need to wipe. If you have issues, wipe. It's that simple.
[G1 Android Development] jedinger:
I can't seem to find anything that shouts RADIO to me...

Firmware 1.6

baseband ver 62.50s.20.17u_2.22.19.26i

CM4.2.8 build DRC92
[G1 Android Development] xjjjay:
Great! Thanks for looking into it... I look forward to when it's fixed. It's a pretty big issue... I've got to turn music volume down all the way cause it goes through silent mode, and I don't want it playing during class ;)
[G1 Android Development] shata:
I would listen to cl2eep he probly knows what he is talking about but just for sake of telling you. You have same radio version as me which is _2.22.19.26i
[G1 Android Development] AustinKnight45:
It might just be me but I know if "I can't download a damn thing" I would've wiped a long time ago.
[G1 Android Development] cronin4392:
when i go into my recent call list the call button is now on the right.

happening to anyone else?
[G1 Android Development] jedinger:
I'll wipe tomorrow. The download issues have only been 4.2.8. Everything else was related to the home app in memory checkbox it seems.
[G1 Android Development] QMAN101:
Your radio is included in the baseband. Yours is 2.22.19.26I which I believe is the latest.
[G1 Android Development] hihik:
had an embarassing moment in the post-office when mattafix song started playing by itself .. on speakers! O.o
[G1 Android Development] 2311:
I was going to skip 4.2.8.1 because of the tiny bug fix but I noticed the darker launch tray was mentioned and now I'm flashing =).
[G1 Android Development] devitocoke:
Thank you again Cyanogen, when will you start working on the eclair dump?
[G1 Android Development] timal:
Excellent question !

[G1 Android Development] revwillie:
sorry If I'm missing something. I searched, but don't even know what to search on honestly. I repartitioned my sdcard and restored my apps to the ext partition. All the apps work fine except for the ones that show as .zip in the appsbackups. These ones:

com.NamcoNetworks.PacMan.zip

com.paypal.android.p2pmobile.zip

com.eintents.seqlite.zip

com.rcreations.bizcardsLite.zip

com.wyrmling.android.barrage.lite.zip

They don't appear in the launcher now. I cannot reinstall them or uninstall them. adb install says:

C:\Android\zips>adb install com.wyrmling.android.barrage.lite.zip

641 KB/s (1220963 bytes in 1.859s)

pkg: /data/local/tmp/com.wyrmling.android.barrage.lite.zip

Failure [INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_NO_CERTIFICATES]

adb uninstall just says "Failure"

Package manager, Market and Quick Uninstaller either don't recognize them or can't install them. What makes the .zip packages disappear from the launcher?
[G1 Android Development] randomness55:
I had this happening to me a couple of builds ago. Someone told me to try and simply delete some things from your SD card because it might be low on space...sure enough, I deleted some of the older CM builds I was keeping on my SD card and the last 2 times I've flashed my Nandroid has worked perfectly fine.
[G1 Android Development] shata:
Yup same here, i like it better that way. I think thats something CM changed though with latest release if im not mistaken.
[G1 Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Cyanogen now incorporated a modified phone.apk and contacts.apk. Thats why they look different :)
[G1 Android Development] tee aiy emm:
I agree, you should start an eclair build now and add camera driver once it comes out, cyan :)

No camera for now actually isn't that bad at all

(at least--I think this is why you're still waiting)
[G1 Android Development] cronin4392:
yeah i kind of like it better, but certain things about it bug me.

I also find it harder to hit than when it was on the left when only holding the phone with 1 hand (im a righty).
[G1 Android Development] Jefpier:
Does this ROM has HTC music? the eclair lock screen ported?
[G1 Android Development] shata:
yup yup Great change for right handed people haha, makes it just tiny easier. =)

4.2.8.1

Thanks for all of your hard work again, Cyanogen.

4.2.8.1 looks good on my G1. Today I did experience the weird incoming-call-black-screen-can't-answer problem. But it's the first time I've seen it. I'll keep an eye on it for now.
[G1 Android Development] shata:
I believe it just has the regular 1,6 music, idk never seen the htc one.

Others had success, but there was not much changes so you might as well go ahead but make a backup anyway..

[G1 Android Development] smartin4166:
I don't know if this helps but I also had music start playing for no reason. What I did was open the player and chose another song so that it would kinda reset it and I haven't had any more mystery music playing.

Cyan you freakin ROCK! Thank you for all your hard work!
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Yes, any sd works..For cyan im using a 4GB SDHc(kingston) also and its fast.But i repartition without apps2sd because i only install like 5 apps which are small enough for the internal memory.I think APPS2SD is pointless for someone that installs less than 10 apps.You need the adapter to put the rom onto you phone, and you need the 1.6HTC rom.
[G1 Android Development] problem1:
yea of course ........96 mb
[G1 Android Development] Jigga0o7:
Just had the same problem myself. Not sure what to do besides keep my media volume down at the moment.
[G1 Android Development] JadedTech:
I can confirm that it works....I finally got it working on my G1 today! Woo-Hoo!

I followed the instructions FOUR TIMES and on the 4th time it finally took. Talk about freaking annoying as all hell.

I forget where I had heard it, but there was a thread on some completely different forum about some completely different topic about FireFox and downloading files. I'm not a developer but there was something about what FF did with the DL'd files that was enough to screw things up. Wish I could say more. I installed Sea Monkey on my Karmic machine and re-DL's the two updates (actually, changed from 4.2.2.7 to 4.2.2.8 as it released during my 4 day ordeal....) and voila! I finally booted to the Blue Android logo!(previous it would just hang at the TMobile G1 logo only till I 'restored last backup' and used the RC29 image. (Really crappy!)

Now I just have to figure out why WiFi won't work. Specifically, DNS. I can log into my router by IP but cannot browse a single site. I can hit Google by IP but nothing else.

So, what's up with DNS and the mod? All worked very well prior to this, only change is the new OS.

[G1 Android Development] QMAN101:
GMail is a google app. Cyanogen ROMs do not contain the google apps. His updates take the google apps that are on your phone, set them aside, install the rom and then puts the google apps back. It does not add them. So,if they were not there before the update, they will not be there after. You should reflash the HTC 1.6 ADP image which contain the google apps and then the CM Rom.
[G1 Android Development] ilostchild:
Ok ill try that again.. jus when i updated to the latest the gmail icon is gone in the tray and the shorcut on the screen is gone too.. its replaced with a andriod box and when i click on it says its not there.. i will try again and report back thanks

Noticed a rather irritating issue, which appeared in the later ROMs.

Too often I encounter a situation that, when I switch from an app to the Home screen, it takes up to 20 seconds to actually draw the homescreen. First the screen goes black, then I see just the background image with no icons, then the phone starts drawing icons one by one. And until all the icons are drawn, it does not respond to touches.

I'm using MT3G.

if you did not load the audio resources file, it's possible that it sets your music mp3 as default ringtone or default alert sound. try to load the audio resource and set your default ring tone or default alert sound and see if the problem goes away.
