@jusberry07: you have to flash the original ADP1 1.6 'official' from HTC with recovery/boot/radio removed, then w/out rebooting, flash cyan on top. Read here for more detailed info & links: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Upgrading_From_Older_CyanogenMod_or_other_rooted_ROMs

P.S. - you shouldnt have to rename anything to update.zip anymore if you have latest AmonRa Recovery, currently 1.6.2, located here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=566669&highlight=recovery

Dev Tools / Show CPU Usage

I like to keep the Show CPU Usage checked in Dev Tools so I can tell when the CPU is maxed out causing the phone to be unresponsive. Unfortunately, I need to recheck this item at each bootup (and I reboot every night to keep the phone from getting laggy). Anyone know how to keep this setting persistent across a reboot?

coming from Complete Eclair Rom 1.2 to CM

I am wanting to reinstall CM Rom but I am coming from Complete Eclair 1.2. I downloaded and tried to flash the defanged_83 but I get an error stating the download is corrupted. The SD card is brand new and formatted FAT32. I am stuck and could use a hand.
[G1 Android Development] bunu:
Get the latest Amon_RA recovery for your device, reformat your sdcard using the recovery menu, mount your device to your computer while still in the recovery menu.

Redownload the defang base and the latest cyanogen and just drag and drop into your sdcard.

Then do a full wipe (wipe anything that gives you the option. you don't have to wipe the ext partition of you don't have one)

If you did wipe the ext partition then repair it, upgrade to ext4, then repair it again.

Flash the defang base then without rebooting or wiping flash the latest cyanogen. Go to the other section of the recovery menu and run the fix apk uid mismatches option. Then reboot.

That is what I do as a final resort if things are messing up. It is like the ultimate wipe and flash.

To go to the Amon_Ra recovery just press home and the power button when turning on.

[G1 Android Development] bunu:
First you need to set up the Android SDK. http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

and set it up. To set it up just follow one of the guides on XDA. Then plug in your phone while it is on (doesn't matter if it it stuck on the g1 screen.) and follow the commands on the Amon_RA post.

Just to make sure your phone isn't brick try to get into the bootloader by pressing back and power as you power on.

I can install most apps from the market, others though(men's health workouts and white noise full) will not install at all. I just get download unsuccesful, even before it downloads a single byte of data.

Any ideas? Need more info?

Gmail sync problem

Hi,

After doing an unsuccessful search, I dare to post my question...

Since 4.2.15.1 my Gmail behaves weird. Items that I read on my phone and/or delete on my phone do not appear to be deleted on my gmail on my pc. A simple refresh does not solve it.

Strangely enough a refresh also does not bring the items back to my inbox, so the unread items stay unread and the deleted items stay deleted. At least on my phone.

So after a weekend using my phone and reading and deleting mails, I have to do it all again on my PC.

Does anyone else experience this problem? And more importantly, what can be done about it.

thanks,

Jan
[G1 Android Development] flyers00:
I verified my phone is not brick but I am having trouble with ADB. I have it installed and when I follow the thread for re-flashing the image, the command mount -a is not found or error. Is there another command I am missing or can I use Droid Explorer as someone recommended
[G1 Android Development] skrki:
Hi,

Here's some pointers, and I do ask you to switch to private messages either with me, or with the other person, cos this doesn't belong to the thread:

mount -a gives you an error because it won't mount all that's in /proc/mounts, probably because some of the entries can't be mounted at that particular moment. This is normal. But the best is to look at the output of 'mount' [and 'mount --help' to get more info].

Example:

To mount your sdcard in recovery, with 'write' permissions, using adb:

adb shell mount -o rw /sdcard

To push a file from C:\ to the sdcard, after doing the above:

adb push c:\defanged_base_image.zip /sdcard

I'm not sure what exactly you're trying to accomplish, but since you say you have Amon_RA recovery, then you need to only boot into it, flash the defanged base (found here: http://dx.infernix.net/DRC83_base_defanged.zip or http://www.canadianandroid.com/d/cyanogen/DRC83_base_defanged.zip), and then flash the CyanogenMod. Depending on the previous mod you were using you might have to wipe /system and /cache (FDR). Always wipe the Dalvik-cache, just to be on the safe side upon boot.

Hope this helps, PM me if anything needs clarification.

BT doesn't stay on

So yeah, I agree w/the bluetooth note. I touch it on the power control and it lights up dull (like it's turning on) then just shuts off. I even did it through the settings and watched and it just shuts off. Can't get it to stay on. Wiped already. Any suggestions?
[G1 Android Development] skrki:
I've just switched it on and off at least 10 times - not a single failure.

You should post your logs and possibly kernel messages if you want decent answers to this question.

First clear your device log and kernel messages:

Log:

logcat -c

KMesg:

rm /data/dontpanic/last_kmsg

Then do a few test runs, capture the log and last_kmsg and post em here.

I can't mount my SD card from this latest version of the ROM :(

Strange, because I can mount normally if I do it from the recovery menu.

no. i was before on previous versions. most of the time i keep wifi, bt, sync, off and the brightness at its lowest. i've also cut back on how many widgets i have on my home screens because those can use background data. and it wouldnt hurt to get a task killer program, or use the process manager in ASTRO

Bluetooth issue

I had the bluetooth issue you describe once a week or so ago. A reboot cleared it up and I've probably enabled and disabled bluetooth 10 or more times since then.
[G1 Android Development] skrki:
OK, there are errors in bluetooth module in your device. I honestly don't know what you can do, but try and re-flash. The timeout you are getting means your device isn't responding to signals, which basically leaves you only with an option to reinstall.

Additionally check out the content of /lib/modules, you should have these files inside:

/lib/modules# ls | grep blue
bluez-plugin
libbluedroid.so
libbluetooth.so

Config files are in /etc/bluez/, listed here with permissions (check those too):

# ls -l
-r--r----- 1 bluetoot bluetoot 1230 Aug 1 2008 audio.conf
-r--r----- 1 bluetoot bluetoot 1434 Aug 1 2008 hcid.conf
-r--r----- 1 bluetoot bluetoot 118 Aug 1 2008 input.conf

So really, you could try messing with the settings, or pushing the .so files manually, but I believe a re-install should fix it all automatically. You said you've done that, but there is no other option that I know of.

As for the battery life, you should try re-calibrating, as per Wiki instructions. There is no significant changes in this version of CM that would cause extensive drain. I must note, with every new release, there are people experiencing this. However, it is mostly users' own processes that are the cause, not the firmware itself. So check you log every time you think there is something weird going on - there may be a process running in background while your phone is idle, or something similar to that.

I can only speak from my own experience, and that has been nothing but great with this build - probably the best so far! I'm a little disappointed that nobody noticed (out loud) the new 'Spare parts' shortcut (when you push Menu on Home), which is really handy! Anyway, I strained a little off of the BT topic.... ;)

I reflashed yesterday and unfortunately it's not resolved. It doesn't happen all the time, but seems to not want to start BT after a while.

I think I might consider going back to 2.14 for a while. I use the phone and bluetooth a few time a day. I'd hate to have to reboot each time I get home and want to switch on BT.

yea i disabled it for know but i miss the rotation, just not the 180 haha owell thanks for the help though
[G1 Android Development] jakijal:
well yeah, its not 2 bad. mine takes bout 4 seconds actually. lol. but the 'home app' option in spare parts helped out.

try the rotation settings in the 'spare parts' app if you havent already. i dont know if that can help you out. that will enable/disable the rotation when you are on the home screen.

I've checked again, made a mistake the first time, so I'm sorry about that! The BT libraries aren't in /lib/modules, but in /system/lib.

Andy, you could try the same thing Jedinger said, let the battery discharge completely and try again.

The issue has been reported here, anybody with this problem is encouraged to watch the issue and contribute with a log:

http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=1162

Jedinger, you are right, the spare parts shortcut isn't there by default. But during my messing around with the ROM and modifying some parts of it, I replaced the Launcher with some Eclair themed one, which has surely brought this change. Again, sorry for the confusion.

I was out of the country and had my phone off.. when I got back I saw the update, grabbed it, and have no issues so far (knock wood). I have the parallel version of the BRUT maps installed as well (v6 I think), but otherwise a pretty basic install of CM.

As a side note, I just realized there were some neat features in the "Labs" section of the Maps settings.

[G1 Android Development] carlsbad0331:
Interestingly, my phone started doing the reboot thing randomly today. So far since this morning it has rebooted four times during different actions.

Once was during a phone call, once was during a web search, another while I was making a post to FB and the last time it was just sitting on my desk.

The battery is fully charged, and it boots just fine and quickly.

Maybe the reboot is not entirely dependent on the update to maps.

In the Exception Browser, I am getting line items that read "java.lang.RuntimeException: BroadcastReceiver trying to return result during a non-ordered broadcast"

This line item seems to be directly related to my rebooting issue... as when I count the number of these error messages today, it matches the number of times I have seen my phone reboot. Any suggestions?

Once you're in fastboot (that's the three guys on skateboards), connect to computer, Run cmd.exe, change to the directory where you have your recovery.img, and type:

fastboot boot recovery.img

This will reboot your phone into recovery.
