[G1 Android Development] Slow is Fast:
I've managed to get dwang running, but I've hit a bit of a snag.

I'm on ATT without a data plan. I boot into dwang after a fresh install, and it writes my APN correctly. The only problem is, I have to blank my username and password in the APN section to disable edge but keep call and text functionality.

I have deleted the APN and it wont allow me to create a new one. I wiped, fresh install set up the APN, and I went in and blanked the username and password sections, hit save, yet it still seems to connect to edge even though the APN is set up proper.

Anyone have any clues to fix this or a way to manually edit the APN file? I like the speed of dwang but if I can't figure this out I'm just going to nandroid back to my laggy cyanogen install.
[G1 Android Development] Asphalto:
There is a way to disable only the laucher (home) auto-rotation? Over that , this is best ROM i try on my MAgic 32B :D.
[G1 Android Development] TonyDeez:
Download APN Droid from the market, open it, and all will be clear. One of the best app for the newbies in my opinion (not implying that you or anyone is).
[G1 Android Development] slinky1914:
Fastest most stable ROM out there. Thanks Dwang and I am also using Matt's theme which makes it more awesome. Keep'em coming. I have not flashed another ROM in like 3 days which is a record for me.
[G1 Android Development] :
bash

hey dwang, first thanks for superB roms you are cooking. is there a chance to use bash shell instead of default sh?

bash has colors, history, autocomplette... more info here:

because i already have weather and news apps!? Or is this a special news weather app?

I really hope that dwang does not overload his rom. I like slim roms without any extras. i mean for what do we have an app store?
[G1 Android Development] DarthVader911:
Someone please point me in the right direction for Magic 32A rom, are there no Dwang roms available for it ?
[G1 Android Development] tudor00:
+1

I wish apps like IM & weather were not part of the ROM. It eats up RAM which is lost for those who don't need these apps.
[G1 Android Development] Kiid415:
umm hellpp !

I installed this .. and now i cant load the cyanogen bootloaderrr ! omggg ! help !

This rom support 96 MB linux-swap partition?

I was using 32 MB swap on 2GB stock card, but today i change card to 8 GB class 4. I create fat32/ext3/linux-swap in proportions:

- fat32 - 7348 MB

- ext2/3 - 500 MB

- linux-swap - 96 MB

Partitions are correct - after print in parted i see correct their size (including 96 MB linux-swap). But in terminal after free i see only 32 MB swap.

What's happens? May i doing something wrong?

thx from above :)
[G1 Android Development] tmusall:
I answered this question on page 135 post #1342.

If you want something other than dwang's default compcache put your commands in /system/sd/userinit.sh and use this modified custom_init script. I've changed it to look in /system/sd for userinit.sh. Overwrite dwang's version in /system/bin. Here's how from a root shell:

# busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
# cp custom_init.txt /system/bin/custom_init
# cp userinit.sh /system/sd/
# busybox mount -o remount,ro /system

Reboot and you should be good to go.

I assume you know what to put in userinit.sh to turn off compcache and enable linux swap :)
[G1 Android Development] beju69:
Your answer is enough :) Thx, in a while a try it and give feedback :)

Edit:

Geeee thanks Man :) If you ever will be in warsaw, you have a beer :) 4 hours of modyfing user.conf and userinit.sh. But it was only a few missing lines in custom_init...

Once more thanks :)
[G1 Android Development] Ohsaka:
Can you post the userinit.sh and user.conf you use for Dwang ROM? I just switched from CM and am liking it but haven't followed this thread. I figure there might be a better config for this ROM than the one I was using for CM...

Edit: also, my userinit.sh doesnt look like it works...

# ./userinit.sh
./userinit.sh
rm failed for -fr, No such file or directory
rmmod: chdir(/system/modules/lib/modules): No such file or directory

ERROR!!! unable to find compcache modules.
[G1 Android Development] tmusall:
I just use the default rom compcache settings. Used to use linux swap, but found compcache alone works very well and my sdcard isn't taking a beating.

My userinit.sh is just a simple script to tweak a few cpu freq settings. I don't use user.conf at all. I find these tweaks give better battery life without a big performance hit. Your mileage may vary :)

Hi Dwang i am spanish user, amazing Rom.

A question:

in future versions, ¿is posible to remove the countdown of Bluetooth menu, make always visible if user allow it?
[G1 Android Development] benoitb85:
When I connect my phone by USB to my computer, it doesn't show a USB mount notification. So I can't access my SD card as a mass storage device.

I come from Cyanogen and thought that it was a native android feature. Should I install this feature ? Or is it a parameter to change ?
[G1 Android Development] beju69:
Ohsaka - on my settings everything work great :) in attachment.
[G1 Android Development] nricci:
Can't install

Folks

I'm having an issue here. Coming from Cyan latest, wiped data, loaded this rom, but all I get is a black screen.

Any suggestion about next steps?

I'm researching the forums for some light, but to no avail.
[G1 Android Development] Ohsaka:
Make sure you arent using an ext4 partition...

I usually repartition my whole sdcard when switching ROM brands. If you use Backup For Root Users app and Amon_Ra's recovery image its really not that bad to erase EVERYTHING.
[G1 Android Development] nricci:
I wish I knew how.

Time for some research.
[G1 Android Development] nricci:
One more thing.

I tried to load this rom without a SD card and the result is the same black screen.

IS this the normal behavior when you don't have a SC card inserted?
[G1 Android Development] nricci:
Just checked with Paragon.

I have ax EXT 3 and a FAT 32 Partition. EXT 3 has 500 Kb.

I'll reformaty everything and try again.

Will keep you posted.

Thanks for the help.
[G1 Android Development] nricci:
Did everything again.

New FAT 32 partition, new EXT 3 partition, all erased, reformatted, still getting the black screen.

I really need help here guys.

Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] benoitb85:
I also came from cyanogen. I installed Amon_RA's recovery first. Then wiped the phone AND the ext partition. I then ran the ext partition fix (can't remember the exact name, it is in the recovery wipe sub-menu).

I did this procedure by following a youtube presentation to install the Super D rom.

I'm not having black screens. The rom feels nice and fast.

Anybody can confirm if this rom is supposed to mount the SD card as mass storage drive when connected to a computer ?
[G1 Android Development] Ohsaka:
I wrote a guide which reproduces the steps I use to switch "brands" of ROMs. It is what I did last night to install this ROM. There is a link in my signature. Give it a shot...
[G1 Android Development] tadzio:
Yes, it does that. Have you tried accessing your device with adb or DDMS, just to make sure it's really connected (eliminating bad cable etc as cause for the problem)?

Cheers

tadzio
[G1 Android Development] titan2912:
very good , thanks.
[G1 Android Development] Sgt.EddieWinslow:
after flashing to this rom, and the Android splash screen. i just get a backlight black screen.

i have rebooted, re flashed and it still does the same thing?
[G1 Android Development] Sgt.EddieWinslow:
did as mentioned in the previous posts...just repartitioned SD and reflashed, and now its working fine
[G1 Android Development] benoitb85:
Thanks for the info. I don't know why but the feature is working perfectly today. I don't really understand what happened yesterday.

Anyway, problem solved !
[G1 Android Development] Ohsaka:
You may want to check your logcat, when I used your userinit.sh it didn't seem to be loading properly.

I ended up just putting the settings I want directly into the custom_init script and not having a userinit.sh or user.conf at all.

Here are the settings I am testing right now if anyone is curious. You need a 64 meg swap partition on your SD card to use these settings.

echo "--- Welcome to Android!";

insmod /system/lib/compcache/ramzswap.ko;
rzscontrol /dev/block/ramzswap0 -i -d 49152 -m 61440 -b /dev/block/mmcblk0p3;
busybox swapon /dev/block/ramzswap0;

echo 128000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq;

I am ALSO having a problem when I try to open the Camera or Camcorder...its just forcecloses.

Does anyone have a solution to this? Or know why its doing that?
[G1 Android Development] tadzio:
Camera Settings force-close with German locale

Hi Dwang,

I just wanted to report a small issue with 1.17.1 on an HTC Magic (32B):

If the phone's language is set to German, then as soon as I try to enter the camera app's settings, I get a force close due to an ArrayOutOfBoundsException. This does not happen if the phone is set to English.

Not a big deal because I use Snap Photo anyway, but I thought you may want to have a look into it for the next version. :)

Thanks btw for a great ROM!

Cheers

[G1 Android Development] gonintendo:
are there any themes like enoch for this rom?
[G1 Android Development] ss1271:
guys

i've got an error of WIFi stucks since yesterday, and this rom is long being fast and stable. but yesterday.

The wifi works normal just after rebooted, but a few min. later, it stucks, and couldn't be turned off. Then the Settings gets FC and if choose "wait" the phone will be rebooted itself...

what's wrong?
[G1 Android Development] yayayay:

You must really suck. I went to the search bar and typed in "darkstar theme"; it was the first one listed. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=589409
[G1 Android Development] 2311:
Just wanted to say thanks for the ROM, it's better than Cyanogen's in terms of speed and stability thus far IMHO. I really liked his ROMs and have been using them ever since early summer, but they've seemed to bloat up over time, especially now. There is also very much experimental stuff in the "STABLE" version which gets screwy every update. Anyways, not trying to flame him so hope no one takes it that way, I appreciate his hard work a lot, not only him but all devs.

Wow, thank you so much! just applied it now. It's AMAZING! It looks really sick with that wallpaper with the droid guy on a skateboard on a green background.

I have this problem as well, using the HTC 3 in 1 adapter. Did you ever find a solution?
[G1 Android Development] rel500:
im using dwangs newest release and have been using dwang for quiet some months now.. I have a 3in1 adapter that works.. what i did was flash dwang.. go into all menus etc once then i wiped a cyan theme on it.. for some ppl it may not work.. my phone works i have a blk n red theme n 3in1 works great for me.. watch movies all day at work all while the phone is charging
[G1 Android Development] bill.loney:
I am not sure how to flash themes, do you just apply a zip from ra? Do you need to convert it to work on dwang? I've flashed the latest cyan and confirmed that the adapter does work, then did a no wipe flash back to dwang, and it broke again. I could try to get a regular adapter, as I don't need to charge (the 2300 battery is the best upgrade 11 bucks can buy).
[G1 Android Development] 7895123:
This ROM very good, stable... Force Close ! just a little 1-2 times per day (all else CM, Super D... FC 10-20 times per day) by my way used.

Just 1 thing I dont like : 3G SPEED TOO SLOW running at 1Mb/s, all other can run 5-6Mb/s.

I back with super D now !
[G1 Android Development] axllent:
Did you check your 3G settings in the /system/build.sapphire.prop file?

ro.ril.hsxpa=2
ro.ril.gprsclass=12
[G1 Android Development] axllent:
No idea why, but I have this too, but not always. This morning it (camera) closed/crashed about 5 times consecutively on me before finally working. It has been generally fine before this however, crashing only every now and again. Go figure?? ;-)

I still love the ROM though, so thanks again Dwang! Great stuff.
[G1 Android Development] bequietanddrivegeno:
I apologize if this issue has been brought up before. I'm running Dwang 1.13 and love it, however, I'm having an issue in the Market and Maps applications. When I turn the phone sideways (MT3G) and start typing a search request, none of my letters or words appear in the search box. If I flip the phone back to the vertical position, the words appear as normal. Typing in the vertical position is fine as well. Not a huge issue, just a minor annoyance. Any idea's? Thanks guys.
[G1 Android Development] bequietanddrivegeno:
It appears a simple phone restart has resolved the issue.Thanks anyway!

# uptime
uptime
04:14:29 up 2 days, 22:23, load average: 3.03, 3.21, 3.14

FYI, been running these settings for almost three days with not a single FC and I haven't rebooted at all. The ROM is still really snappy, but using a large compcache with backing swap nothing ever gets killed. It only gets swapped out. Browser, GMaps, LandGrab, SMS, etc all retain their state when switching between apps.

The only thing I am missing is an upgraded browser. Does Loccy's BetterBrowser work with this ROM?

Edit: Loccy's thread has a dead link to his apk. So I dug through my old CM roms and pulled out the apk. Attached it here for anyone who wants it. Don't "adb install" it, just "adb push" it to /system/app directory.

Workaround for camera settings FC in other languages

I have observed the same issue when trying to enable geotagging of photos. To address this, I switched to Super D a few weeks ago, but decided to return to Dwang 1.17.1 for its superior stability. Thanks, Dwang, for this outstanding ROM!

After re-reading tadzio's message, I used the workaround I should have thought of in the first place: switch to English, enable geotagging, switch back to German or other desired language. Vielen Dank, tadzio.
[G1 Android Development] pjcforpres:
I have been running this for the last couple weeks straight (I know, I need to flash more often)... Anyways, I have had my first "bug" with a dwang. The touch input stopped working in the browser a couple days ago. I did a soft reset, and all was good again for about half a day, then it started doing it again. The time between soft reset and the touch input no longer working keeps reducing, to the point that the last time I had to soft reset the phone 2 times before it would start working again. Touch screen works perfect in every other program, on the home screen, and when I hit the menu button in the browser I can touch the differnet buttons, the address bar, and all that, just doesn't register touch on the web page itself at all, can't click links, swipe, zoom, and so forth(although the zoom buttons work).

Not sure if it has to do with the ROM framework or the browser itself growing corrupted over time. I do not use any task killer programs at all, no need to IMO, and haven't loaded any new programs since I first flashed, and the only apps I have are touchdown exchange, weather flip clock, and docs2go free edition (I know, boring!)

Any suggestions would be swell! I will try and logcat it the next time I am at home and it happens.
[G1 Android Development] Ohsaka:
I had this problem every now and then also. I have not had since I installed Loccys BetterBrowser. See my previous post for a link to it.

HTC 3 in 1 adapter

I too would like to request support for the HTC 3 in 1 adapter for the G1 in this ROM's next release. It really conveinant to keep the phone charging while listening, especially for car use.

Love the ROM. Reliable and stable which is why I switched from cyanogen's, despite his great work. Couldn't deal with all the experimental bugs with my time limitations. Only have time for stable ROM's.

Thanks!

Tested this out. Everything runs smoothly. My phone would dim to black for no reason, though. All my timeout settings are fixed and when I press a button to return it would be in the same spot where it was at, not locked.

thanks again
[G1 Android Development] cjbrigol:
I only have two issues and I'm not even sure they're 100% related to this rom, but they didn't occur until I started using it

1. Usually when I turn on wifi with the built in toggle bar widget, it won't connect to my saved router until I go into Menu>wireless settings> wifi then it will connect before I click anything further

2. People on the other end of the phone complain of being able to hear EVERYTHING going on around me and the mic being too sensitive and they can even hear like my clothes moving when I move very loudly lol.

Besides that it's a wonderful rom, simple, fast (most of the time) and great for anyone. So thank you for your time and effort.

Edit: I'm on a G1 btw

This was the ONLY problem I had with dwangs rom. My gf would constantly complain when i'm on the freeway driving and talking. She would hear ALL the racket. I was on an earlier version (1.14) and told her it's the firmware I recently flashed. I loved everything about dwang's so, when I saw BoogieDonut I flashed it since it was based off the new 1.17.1 dwang I thought. BoogieDonut doesn't have the added microphone sensitivity

Edit: Just read dwangs: "My ROM contains an audio patch that increases the microphone sensitivity."

That would explain my earlier problem.

Finally got around to flashing this onto my 32B, I have been running Amon_RA 1.6.2 for ages. The current v1.17.1 is alot better than the old v1.1 I tried on the Sapphire forums. Browser is noticeably quicker, switching home screens with transparent widgets does not lag, Better Keyboard seems smoother and the occasional lag on long-press has vanished.

Great ROM, Dwang, thankyou so much!
[G1 Android Development] gonintendo:

Thanks for the tip but don't really know how to "Push" something...is that like when I grab an APK for an app an install it? Anyone wanna give me a hint? lol

Edit: I think I figured it out. I just replaced the files he mentioned from 1.11 into 1.17.1 We'll see how it goes!

Edit2: Nvm it wouldn't let me update with that file...oh well, hopefully someone can explain push to me in one sentence lol.
[G1 Android Development] xlight:
Dwang 1.71 seems to be unstable ( reboot randomly ) when wifi and mobileNetwork are both turned off.
[G1 Android Development] axllent:
I think you'll need to remount the root fs first before being able to overwrite those 3 files:

[B]adb remount[/B]
adb push AudioFilter.csv /system/etc/AudioFilter.csv
adb push AudioPara4.csv /system/etc/AudioPara4.csv
adb push AudioPreProcess.csv /system/etc/AudioPreProcess.csv

I haven't tried it myself but it seems quite straightforward. Attached are the csv files from Dwang 1.11

Hope this helps
