Im making a video of how to install cyanogens latest, with fixes, features, etc, waiting on cyanogen for permission to post, i did sent him a tweet but haven't answer if someone has the way to tell him please do....
[G1 Android Development] mackster248:
What do you mean by fixes? Because it's Metamorph that causes those Market installation issues/FC's.
[G1 Android Development] hadramos:
Hi,

I just installed the ROM v4.2.11.1 Cyanogen on my HTC Dream Orange v1.1

I followed the instructions in this guide :

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.ph...to_CyanogenMod

I had no problem for the update but I Accelerometer does not work !!!

I followed the instructions from the FAQ :

http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/wiki/FAQ

but to no avail, still no Accelerometer...

Have you ideas?

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] gitanojr:
by fixes meant with fc on the the installation on the mod itself, after installing themes, ram hacks, thats another story, so far i don't have any FC, not using any theme, but i will, then if a have a FC, then will make video of how to fix it, i'm trying to make this threat a lot shorter, cause its kinda hard to find a solution

to fc, on all this pages, luckily cyanogen or the moderator would let put this videos on the first post :)
[G1 Android Development] mackster248:
Yeah I know what you mean. I don't get FC's unless I use Metamorph... Kind of a bummer =[
[G1 Android Development] damwid:
I always got a gapps FC when startup on 4.2.10.1 and 4.2.11.1, the error is:

E/ActivityThread( 345): Failed to find provider info for im
D/AndroidRuntime( 345): Shutting down VM

then I noticed the IM.apk was removed since 4.2.10.1 but was in 4.2.9.1. I copied the missing packages back but it didn't help.

Is this a know issue?
[G1 Android Development] dudemaster supreme:
Any idea how I can get the USB-tether to connect to games on GGPO? I know it's not my router, I was able to get on and play just fine when I had a traditional PCI wireless card with the same router and ISP. Any messing about with IPtables I could do?

audio issue

htc g1 with cyanogenmod 4.2.9.1 ... the audio dies when i have the headphones plugged in and i get a notification while listening to pandora or mp3s off the sd card. :(
[G1 Android Development] Dysengaged:
hmm, it seems that i havent been able to send/receive MMS on my HTC dream since 4.2.5.. That, and the audio seems to be very quiet, unusually quiet. contemplating going back to 4.2.5 for these bugs.

Could the MMS issue be due to APN settings? they seem to be the same as normal, although i could be wrong.
[G1 Android Development] lalit79:
wipe solves it all

My phone was very slow in .10.1....While updating to 4.2.11.1, i wiped it, repartioned my SD card, updated the defanged drc83, applied the CM version, applied the radio update, rebooted, fix filesystem, applied fix permissions, reboot.

the phone is zipping fast...very smooth.

thanks cyan

orb and video problems with 4.2.11.1

since i cant watch slingbox on android (no flash, no android slingplayer) i installed a tuner card on my pc and am streaming my cable tv to my phone through orb (orb.com)

after much time and effort, actually got it to work only in dolphin browser (video would not and still does not work in the stock browser or lossy's browser or whatever the included browser is in the 11.1 build...)

so until 4.2.11.1, this worked like a charm in dolphin

now, i'm getting a fc everytime after a still frame of video appears, the audio goes on uneffected, and the error message says "activity movies in camera not responding"

because of this, i am assuming that the default video player which the browser is using is the same as the camera's default video player

so first off, which is the default video player for the camera?

can it be changed? i cant find any option for that

i've tried setting nsw mediaplayer and some other videoplayer apps as the default, but the browser still uses the same default camera videoplayer, nothing changes

so, i'm wondering if i can swap out the current camera.apk with the camera.apk from the 4.2.9.1 or 4.2.10.1 builds...just that apk...i think that may be the problem, but of course, i'm wondering if that will have any effect on any other apps, etc

any ideas on this?

and/or is anybody else using orb on a mytouch with 4.2.11.1 successfully?
[G1 Android Development] tnpapadakos:
so battery went strong until 11:00 pm tonight.

i got the 15% battery life message about 10:40pm.

between 5 and 11pm i used about 30 minutes of talk, 15 minutes of wifi browsing, and dowloaded 2 app updates

thats 17 hours from full battery to essentially drain (i went past the 15% another 20 minutes) with (what i think is) average usage

we'll see if its any different tomorrow...

Camera problem

I can't use my camera with CyanogenMod ROMs, anyone can help me out ?
[G1 Android Development] Lithium98:
The zoom isn't the problem. The new Dolphin browser displays websites in mobile mode (the more simplistic version of the internet for cellphones). I want to, by default, have websites display in their original desktop mode. With the old Better Browser, you had an option to switch between the two modes. I was wondering if there was any way to do so with Dolphin.
[G1 Android Development] gitanojr:
Sure try this:

In terminal emulator type:

su

fix_permissions

reboot

if that doesn't work then try this:

wipe dalvik cache with Amon_ra recovery image...

if u don't have amon_ra recovery image thats a shame, sorry for the non-topic mods :)

Then try this in terminal:

su

cd /system/sd/dalvik-cache

rm *

reboot

If that doesn't work then u r out of luck :( , just kidding, u gonna have to reinstall the rom, u can follow the specific instruction reading at the first post or if u don't like reading, well sort of, then watch this:

[G1 Android Development] detox702:
Is anyone else having problems with music players on this? If I open an app like Sleeptimer that runs in the background, then start Pandora or Slacker, or Music, everything works fine. If I try to open anything AFTER a music player, the music player closes. So, for example, I can't listen to music and browse the web. Has anyone else had this problem?

It started on CM 4.2.9, on a fresh install. I currently have CM 4.2.11.1, Stericson's lockscreen, and a 16gb uSDHC card with 128k swap space, all on a MT3G.
[G1 Android Development] gitanojr:
Mmmm let me try that and see if a get a fc...
[G1 Android Development] detox702:
Its not a FC, as far as I can tell. It just seems to run out of memory and has to close the music player to keep the new thing open. At least, thats how it seems to me.
[G1 Android Development] gitanojr:
Ok I have sleep timer running on the background, playing pandora radio and posting this and seems running...

What kind of sd card do u have?? Its a class 6??
[G1 Android Development] detox702:
16gb sdhc class 6. 13gb fat, 2gb (I now see this was probably overkill...) ext3, and 128k swap.
[G1 Android Development] gitanojr:
Yep dolphin does give u that option:

While in a page in dolphin press menu then settings, scroll down and click on "Agent User" actually it gives u three options: Android, Desktop and Iphone :)
[G1 Android Development] gitanojr:
I have an 8gb class 6, 96 swap, 500 ext and the rest of fat32...

Do u have comcache enable?? Ram hack??

Try fix_permissions on terminal or whipe dalvik-cache...
[G1 Android Development] detox702:
Just enabled compcache. I've never heard of ram hack, and no matter how often I ask for help, no one has explained how to use fix_permissions or how to wipe the dalvik cache on my mt3g.

EDIT: Compcache enabled. I can get into almost everything after starting Pandora now, but using the browser still kills it. Music Player is working fine, and I can access every program including the browser.
[G1 Android Development] gitanojr:
I can help u, but I have a g1 :(

Look u can run fix permissions on terminal, now that u said u have aa mt3g how do u use terminal??
[G1 Android Development] skrki:
Have you checked out this bug thread at code.google bug tracker?

Is your swap active? I've had this problem too, a few versions back, but never with active swap space. If swap is on, then there is plenty of space for the Music app in the background.
[G1 Android Development] gitanojr:
If u have amon_ra's recovery image u can wipe dalvik cache there...
[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Problems_after_reinstall#fixing_permissions

and further down on the page:

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Problems_after_reinstall#kill_the_whole_dalvik-cache

The first can be run from a terminal or recovery (adb shell on a magic); the second should be run from recovery.

Both can also be accessed from menu options in Amon Ra's recovery:

Fix_permissions is under the 'other' menu as "Fix UID mismatch'

Dalvik clearing is under the 'wipe' menu.
[G1 Android Development] detox702:
terminal on MT3G has to be done through ADB. I think I've successfully done fix permissions before...
[G1 Android Development] detox702:
I don't have the Amon_Ra recovery. I have Cyanogen 1.4. I'm going to reboot it and try to find this from my recovery menu.
[G1 Android Development] gitanojr:
And probably u don't need the ram hack since u have a mt3g...
[G1 Android Development] detox702:
Ok. I've gotten compcache enabled. I've fixed_permissions. Aparently swap was not on. Its been turned on now. I don't have an option to wipe dalvik cache from recovery, and I can't use adb unless the phone is booted into the rom.

Somewhere between fixing permissions and turning on swap, problem solved. Pandora and SleepTimer and browser all up at the same time, and all working fine.
[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
If you're on CM-1.4 recovery you have to chose 'go to console' to activate adbd on the phone. On a magic/mt3g this may wig out the screen but adb shell will work. To get the menu back, run 'adb shell recovery' which will probably lock your console but display the menu until reboot.
[G1 Android Development] aryndar:

I have looked for that setting and it does not exist in the browser settings for 4.2.11.1

But I do have a question about the Advanced Settings Web Settings which is grayed out, how do get it to work ??
[G1 Android Development] Mickey G:
Try downloading and installing the recovery program (RA's) in the post above. If you will be spending time rooting and upgrading Cyanogen's roms, I highly recommend it.

I have a g1 that I wiped and installed 4.2.11.1 apps are working fine until I restart then I loose something for my apps to run off my sd, they force close with some kind .com process error... have amon ra 1.3.2 and fixed uid's and run fix permissions... reformatted ext 2 to ext 3... nothing has helped. would love some help on this... thanks!
[G1 Android Development] pityr:
Ive been noticing this as well. I have the RAM hack but not compcache or the swap. Do you still have to edit the init file to enable the swap? I partitioned my card for it just never took the next step.

edit* enabling compcache seems to have resolved it.
[G1 Android Development] flarbear:
Apps2SD is automatic with CM, but not swap, you have to manually enable swap.

You can enable a RAM-based form of swap called Compcache with the provided Spare Parts app, but I found that on my memory starved G1 the RAM it used to provide swapping just exacerbated the problem it was trying to fix so it was like 2 steps backward and 2.3 steps forward. It might help avoid the phone having to kill background apps as aggressively, but it crowded the apps that were running even more than they already were in the first place.

I have a fast SD card (Sandisk Ultra Class 6+) and so I downloaded an app called Swapper and I turn on and off my swap partition using that app. Hope that helps...
[G1 Android Development] bunu:
yes. There is a 1.5 version and a 1.6. I downloaded the 1.6 version and it worked. If the one he gave you doesn't work just search for Android 1.6 HTC IME on google
[G1 Android Development] flarbear:
I didn't see what phone you had, but you might want to do some more testing. For instance, does the Market complete large downloads and install items very well? Run any other apps you have that can take a large amount of memory. Compcache may have resolved the particular problem you are seeing now, but has it caused other problems elsewhere?

What I found was that compcache does make it appear that you have more useable virtual RAM and so more programs can run at the same time in the background, but you end up having less "real RAM" and so programs that are currently running and need a lot of room end up fighting with the swap more than they were before and they run slower or sometimes not as well. In particular, compcache reserves about 24Meg of your existing RAM exclusively for its own use. It extends a secondary resource (total virtual RAM) at the cost of one of the more important primary resources (useable real RAM).

With a regular swap partition on the SD card (and a fast SD card, at least Class 6 or something better like the Sandisk Ultras) you get to use all of your RAM for running programs and have a decently fast swap for the ones that are swapped out in the background.

[caveat - I've never proven that the phone's SD interface is fast enough to take advantage of cards faster than a particular Class, but I went with one of the best just in case. Note that when I clear the dalvik cache or install a new ROM and reboot it rarely takes more than a minute to rebuild the cache and I have over 140 items in it taking 40Meg or so. I actually had to go into the recovery console and examine the dalvik-cache to prove to myself that it had been deleted and was being rebuilt - it went so fast compared to the horror stories I see on this board...]

t-mobile im app

Sorry if this is out of place or what have you. I've been looking for the T-Mobile IM app since it was removed from the mod. Does anyone know where I can get it? Or was there another issue so it had to be removed?
[G1 Android Development] pityr:
I have a class 4 card so I should be OK from what Ive read. Checking out DroidSwap right now

Thanks! :)

There is some talk about restoring in earlier in this thread. It was removed because it was crap. There are several other free apps on the market that are way better.
[G1 Android Development] connoisseur:
Swapper no longer seems to retain its settings on startup, any other way around this?? I tried using a userinit/userconf once but it pretty much tanked my phone. Perhaps I used an old script or something. Looking for a solution that will either

1. Run a Gscript at startup or

2. Usable Userinit / Userconf files that will run in 4.2.11.1

Swapper runs fine, you just have to enable it manually each time.

[G1 Android Development] penima:
SD card Damaged

I´m on 4.2.11.1 and i am getting message "SD card damaged". This happens every time after unmounting SD card. Still i think SD card is really not damaged since i can mount and unmount, and copy files from and to computer. Programs work well too as far as i can see.

I changed for a while to another rom, Myhero, and that message doesn't show.

[G1 Android Development] fifteen:
Yup. Same here.
[G1 Android Development] psguardian:
*looking for a nice way to say it*.....

SEARCH BEFORE POSTING

Just searching for "brightness" would bring up the answer, some of the android 2.0 back ports Cyanogen put in a few builds back use diff back end files / folder paths so the apps designed for 1.6 that affect brightness don't work any more.

*nope couldn't find one*

How could this have anything to do with the ROM? You're probably on wifi. No messaging client can stay signed on very well on wifi. (The only exception being the Tmo one, because it uses sms instead of data to sent your messages)
[G1 Android Development] mr2t32:
I'm not on wifi, and I"m not saying that it is the rom. I'm just saying that I start noticing the problem recently, so it might be the app itself. Plus, ebuddy uses data not sms.

[G1 Android Development] mr2t32:
I have not had any connection problems with ebuddy. I'm starting to think it's tmo network. I'm not getting any data at all right now. It seems to be a coincident that I updated my rom and tmo having network problem in US. I will have to wait and see. So far the new rom have been running smooth.
