Yea, it's not as snappy running it with swap, but I like how it keeps apps that are important to me in memory (like instant messaging apps, weather widget, etc.) and I also like how it doesn't have to reload web pages when i go back to the browser. The slight slowness in response is worth it.

I tried CC, and there's nothing but failure with it turned on. I get random reboots, phone hanging, phone freezing, phone slowing down dramatically, and always had to constantly reboot just to get it back up to speed. I settled on swap and never looking back.

I can't wait to get the Nexus one though, no need to run any cc or swap as it already has plenty of ram.
[G1 Android Development] sleepy222:
The dilema is if I don't kill the desk clock then it bongs down the the phone to molasses. Since the desk clock is tire to the weather and news app. Running the clock will run both. Each taking 14 kb of memory for 28kb. Compcache kicks in and phone is in molasses mode.

I like the donut clock better because the app can be killed but the process is not. Freeing up memory and alarm still works.

Where as if I kill the desk clock it kills the process also and alarm therefore does not work.
[G1 Android Development] BoomBoomPOW:
Agreed, swap is definitely a necessity for multi-taskers. I also can't wait to get my hands on the Nexus One. I'm only 2 more paychecks away. :)

[G1 Android Development] sleepy222:
I tried both swap and CC. I am using CC and find that it is more responsive than swap. Swap uses your SD for cache. The SD is the slowest form of memory. CC uses part of your system memory (fastest) for cache but compresses it so therefore accessing it is slower. But still faster than than swap.

Where I find that CC is significantly slowing down my phone is when the too much CC is being used. Like having too many memory hogging apps running at once (browser, widgets, etc). When my free memory is below 17mb free then it slows down.

To compromise speed and lack of memory i'll kill unused apps before I use my browser and have my Advance Task Killer auto kill when my phone is not being used.

I might give a smaller swap a another try later, 60mb perhaps once I get tired of manually kill apps or more memory hogging apps get released.
[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
Er.... I'm not sure what AndroidSpin means with "base" there. CM has to start with an ADP1-based 1.6 for the googly apps, but the starting point for the ROM itself is AOSP. As far as I know, most other ROMs haven't been served with any C&Ds from Google and don't have to have a 'base' to flash over.

CM doesn't use any parts of the 'base' ADP1 1.6 except the Google apps and some of the drivers (e.g. libcamera.so) which are HTC proprietary.

So..... it's probably just terminology clashing (see also: HTC calling their update.zip a 'recovery').

ETA: I poked around a little more and still have no idea why they're listing the base for CM 4.2 as the ADP1 ROM. CM is based on AOSP 1.6 (Donut), not a hacked up ADP1.
[G1 Android Development] wooddguy:
I now did a wipe, flashed the 1.6 base-image, then the latest CM

Still the voice quality is EXTREMELY bad. Reverting to 4.2.11.1 solves the problem.

Any ideas on that?

Request

I have a problem with Cyanogen's rom when I run linux swap in mmcblk0p2. After I do mkswap on that partition and boot up my phone, Cyan's rom thinks it's an ext partition and try to move my apps into there but in the process, I lose my apps. In order for me to use swap, I had to make 2 linux swap partition (small size for mmcblk0p2), avoid running mkswap on mmcblk0p2, and run mkswap on mmblk0p3.

I want to request that Cyan do something similar to Enom's roms, which is check what type of partition it is. I have a MT3G, so that means I have no need for apps2sd.

Thanks in advance.

General observation: There's not much use posting general errors if you don't attach some kind of logcat.

[G1 Android Development] skrki:
Let me try to summarize this in steps:

1) Copy your .apk's manually to /system/app. Do this part in the recovery mode, although it can be done in a live system as well.

2) Format your SD card as FAT32/SWAP

3) Delete any userinit.sh and user.conf scripts you may have used

4) Boot up, and once the system is up and running, open the terminal and type:

swapon /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

You don't need to run mkswap on a swap partition, that's used for swap files. Only swapon is required, so after you've done all of the above, try to configure your userinit script to only utilize this command.

I'm only writing this cos I've tried and succeeded with what you're trying to do - it makes perfect sense for someone who's on a MyTouch.

*sigh*

wiping

Yeah i was wondering..i want to install cyan latest but i want to do it fresh which means wiping..my question is if i wipe under amon ra's recover..if i do wipe sd ext partition..does it erase everything on my sd card including apps??
[G1 Android Development] fermunky:
So, I lost my market, and a few other core apps like maps. I removed all the partitions and rebuilt them, so of course lost everything that was on the sd card (I did have an ext partition and was running apps2sd of course). In doing so though, I lost my core apps. I thought installing the defanged rom and then cyanogen would correct it, but it hasn't... How do I get those core apps back?
[G1 Android Development] cojonesx:
yes wiping your sd ext will erase your apps

[G1 Android Development] Stone Cold:
I have this problem on both my G1 (running current CyanogenMod ROM) and my wife's stock MyTouch3G. From what I've found using Google, it appears to be a general Android problem.

I've had a lot of luck with an app in the market called "Hidden SSID Enabler". It doesn't always connect when I first turn on wi-fi, but usually within a few minutes it connects and then it's good.

I'd love to hear if anyone has a better solution for this, but it's probably a topic for another thread...

[G1 Android Development] SilentTweak:
Time for a wipe. And repartition the SD card again to be safe.
[G1 Android Development] fermunky:
So is that the right path though? Simply do a wipe, partition the SD card, then reflash in order the defanged, then cyanogen, and then the latest radio for good measure?
[G1 Android Development] BoomBoomPOW:
No need to flash the 26I radio if you have it already on the device.

Saying that you should always wipe before upgrading is like saying you have to completely repaint your entire house before hanging a new picture. Er, or something like that. My analogy generator's off tonight.

In erdinc's case, why wipe when you can clear data for the alarm/clock/deskclock and NOT lose everything else? Heck, I bet it's not even that. I bet it's just the new deskclock defaulting to silent for alarms until you set them up.

This whole 'wipe all everything' mentality really pisses me off. This is not WinMo or Windows; this is Linux. Linux users should be fixing specific problems, not nuking and paving at the slightest issue.

[G1 Android Development] _zygo_:
I am not really a fan of wiping the phone to troubleshoot every issue, but there are only a handful of steps one can do to effectively troubleshoot this ROM, especially if the linux OS is a foreign language to the user.

Depending on the issue, a reflash of base and ROM, or a wipe and flash of base and ROM, will establish a baseline for troubleshooting basic, common functionality, such as dialing, receiving calls, WiFi functions, music playing, etc.

If a third-party app remains broken after reinstallation and a ROM reflash, I don't see anything wrong with wiping then reflashing base and ROM. It takes minutes to get your phone back to normal, unless you have more than about 10 applications. If the feature, app, or function is still fried, then one should go to the developer or post logs here.

I have never used reloading Windows or linux as a troubleshooting step on my PCs and servers. It's a very time-consuming process that may or may not work, and it could cause considerable troubleshooting time for the technician and downtime for users. Wiping and reflashing the base and ROM on a G1 or MyTouch takes minutes. Even though you (PsychoBoy) haven't wiped in years, doesn't mean it's not an effective, and sometimes necessary, step in troubleshooting. Our hardware is pretty much the same. Our apps and configurations are all different. Who's to say your configuration is perfect and never needs a wipe, while someone else's is imperfect and does require a wipe?

I appreciate your advice. You obviously know this ROM and linux very well, and your pointers to the issue tracker has saved me considerable frustration in the past. I just think sometimes it takes less effort to wipe and flash, than it does to troubleshoot beyond basic reinstallation of the app.
