Hi

First time i try donut on my Magic :-) looks nice.

Normally i use the 2.8 Rom from SPfrance which has all the features i need but is still on 1.5.

Dwangs Rom is very fast and clean, but there is only one thing i'm missing. Exchange Email works great, but i'm missing the exchange calender sync options which i have on other roms. Either i'm blind or it is not there.

This is a essential feature i need for my daily business.

Someone able to guide me how i can add or enable this feature.

(Maybe it's just adding some apk's which i do not have.)

Thanks

sandro
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Käptn.Karacho:
this is a great ROM

really fast and almost no slowdowns

but i would like to know 2 things

1. how can i activate swap and change size to 96mb?

can i simply use swapper (droidswap)??

2. and are there any themes that work on this ROM?

would really love to see a hero theme or something like that

maybe just try an other theme for a 1.6 ROM?

thanx in advance

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dwang:
this is a google 1.6 rom, which means it doesn't have exchange calendar sync.

You can buy something from the market, but this rom will never have that feature by default.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dwang:
swapper works fine. Or you can create a swap partition and enable it in userinit.sh. Please do a search to find out how to do this as its outside the scope of this discussion.

If anybody wants to create themes for this rom, feel free, but I won't be making any myself.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Wolfyy7:
Thank you Dwang for an awesome ROM, it blew my socks right off.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] schtuka:
Very fast Rom. Snappy. I installed it for my coworker on freshly formated FAT32 and same issue with Gmail sync and speaker sound is kind of scratchy with high pitch noise. Copilot would not install is a minor issue.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Wolfyy7:
I came across the same issue... I would advise you do a double wipe before flash, if all else fails either your SD card is defective or might need a class 8 SD card and I would advise the volume hack for the speaker issues. Gmail sync, the raspy speaker sound and Copilot should install fine after all is said and done, all minor issues should be resolved.

Solid Build

Installed 1.9 last night. Solid build Dwang. Big fan of this ROM. Has just enough perks over std. Donut. I’m running:

Handset:	MT3G 32B

Recovery:	Amon’s v1.2.3

ROM:	Dwang’s v1.9

Great combo! Thanks.

-MP
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] schtuka:
Thanks, I actually formatted his stock card to FAT32 from 3 partition. Wiped clean. Come to think LEDs also do not work properly. I am going to have to do it again all over. Perhaps I need 3 partition back? Swap and all?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dwang:
please read the original post. If you are running on a mt3g, it doesn't make use of any extra partitions or swap. I don't see why formatting the sdcard would fix any of the issues you are seeing.

Its a known issue that the "pirated" co-pilot doesn't work with donut. Gmail sync can be fixed by clearing the gmail data from the manage applications menu. My speaker is fine, I don't know what that is.

What LEDs are you talking about? I don't see any LEDs issues on my mt3g. If I get a gmail message, my LED is flashing no problems.

I'm going to put up a faq. I'm answering the same questions over and over again..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] schtuka:
Dwang, not on my account I hope :rolleyes:. Just to be clear. I am not *****ing about it. As far as I know most of the issues are user defined, result of totally individual approach to the flashing process, sd card and so on. I actually didn't expect you to answer, I was continue dialog with Wolfy :)

I have read first page and new that swap partition or ext3 is not needed.

Thanks anyway for prompt response. I am sure LED's issue is purely accidental on my part.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] quantummongo:
Hi,

first, thx for this great ROM! It's emazing fast on my google magic phone... fastes ever i tested on it :)

But now a little question from a newbie, is there a good Theme available for this rom or can i use anyone i want?

greetings qu
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fridlack:
Hi again,

Seens like that problem comes from google, now syncs works like a charm. And somthing changes with sync, now ONLY syncs when you got a new mail or make any change in contacts or calendar (check update hour in sync setings)..... seens like it works like a blackbery, no more timed syncs.... curious
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dwang:
Themes are usually specific to a particular ROM. You may use others, but they could cause issues.

I don't think there are any specific themes made for my ROM.

If you want theme developers to write themes for my ROM, everybody who uses this ROM needs to sing its praises so theme developers will want to use this ROM on their phone. :-)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jjcobm:
Well just to let everyone know in case they are having sync problems and alarm not going off when specified. I got really frustrated that my alarm didn't work at all this morning and my syncs were completely not syncing and figured it was a system problem.

I don't know how this exactly works, but I wiped, then reflashed the rooted donut 1.6 base rom from the link here:

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Upgrading_From_Older_CyanogenMod_Versions

After that, I immediately flashed dwang's rom and now everything works like it really should. All my syncing issues are gone and alarms work just fine along with calendar notifications and so on.... I figured maybe some system files got messed up and a 1.6 base reinstall fixed them?

Anyways, hope this helps anyone in the future.....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Zoide_:
Same question here. How do Dwang 1.9 and CM 4.1.9999 compare?

Thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] StreetGuru:
Dwang, Thank you for a great rom again. 1.9 seems indeed faster then 1.7 - loving it!!! A couple of requests for next update if possible - can you include the google maps 3.2 (for eclair) that is floating around Link; WOuld also love to see multi-touch in the albums.

And, if at all possible... Can u bring Sense to ur build? It would make it the perfect ROM!

thanks for the best rom out there already!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] schtuka:
I am going to have to try this because after Dwang's suggestion of clearing data for Gmail in app. settings there is no email or syncing at all.

Edit: I think that did the trick. It synced right away after flashing this ROM over HTC base rooted.

Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dwang:
v1.10 is out

v1.10 http://drop.io/kc8uj6z#

* Updated to latest compcache module

* Fixed caller id issue

* Default keyboard vibrate now works
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] joseangel.alv:
:) Thanks a lot...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jjcobm:
Big thanks for the new version, seems like each new version gets crisp response, don't know what you are doing, but keep doing it.... ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fwboilerman:
very nice and fast rom, and also stable, could you put Chinese language in the rom so that we can choose Chinese language, thanks a lot.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] miclflores:
Thanks. Do we need to wipe if we are updating from your ROM? Running 1.9 right now on MT3G. AWESOME ROM, only missing Amazon MP3 for me.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] j3di:
Thanks Dwang for the latest update, seems a little sharper then v1.9 i've had running for a few days. Thanks for fixing the KB vibrate too...

Can't see me running anyone else's ROM from now on!

Dan
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vickypollard:
Thanks for the update Dwang. Vibrate issue is indeed fixed :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bigdbag:
Excellent rom. Haven't rebooted since installing it right after Dwang uploaded the .10 version. faster than the .9 version for sure. Doesn't crash, every single transition is smooth. I don't know if this rom can get any faster than this. Forget Sense. The speed here is too fast to give up.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kchau:
with v1.9 one thing i did notice that after a few days of running, the ram would end up being around 36mb free, but with a fresh reboot it starts around 46mb.

i just installed v1.10 and i'll see if this same thing happens

the overall first impression im getting v1.10 is that its insanely fast.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] timafey:
I am with everyone on this one, didn't know it was possible to make it faster, but V1.10 is def faster, by far the smoothest rom I have used! Thank you for the hardwork!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tmobilewinguser:
wow i thought the other versions were already fast but this one just blows me away its even faster then before great job dwang
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kchau:
im 3 hours in, and ram available is only 41 megs with everything closed.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bigdbag:
Update. I've been running it for almost 11? hours now and I'm not sure if this is a once in a long-shot chance but I was in the browser checking forums, and after I hit home every single icon on all 5 home screens cleared, a blank slate. Everything was running smooth as butter, until just now. Anyone else run into this issue?

On a MT3G 32B with fat/ext4/swap SPL 1.33.2010 @528Mhz.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dwang:
Seems to be an issue w all donut based roms. If Google comes out w a fix. Ill patch it into my rom.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Goobashi:
??

I'm not sure if this was covered, so apologies if this is a repost, but on the MT3G, I'm not able to get any portion of it to go into landscape mode?

Any thoughts.

Thanks

**EDIT**

Disregard -- Seems if you use MyAccount from tmbobile and play with enough settings it disables auto orientation. Sorry for the confusion.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kchau:
you need to force close ahome, and then your icons will come back.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bigdbag:
Ah thanks that did the trick it just happened again.

Dwang, are you planning on making a Sense rom by any chance? :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dwang:
I probably won't be making a sense ROM.

No matter what tweaks you do, sense just won't run very well on the 32b/dream due to insufficient RAM.

Plus, I use BT everyday, so until BT is completely supported, I can't run sense as my everyday ROM.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fridlack:
When an upgrade to DRC92?

V1.10 runs like a lighting... amazing rom! Thanks for share your work :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kchau:
down to 38 megs free now.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] supa2001:
I don't have ahome installed but have the same problem.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bigdbag:
Update2:

I've been running v1.10 for about 2 days now. It's randomly rebooted on me twice since. It will be on home screen, and then it will reboot to the HTC Magic screen. Completely random. Of course it takes only a minute for the phone to reboot completely thanks to the speed of this rom but this is a bug no one else has reported I don't think.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bonesy:
my phone keeps crashing back to home screen?ive tried wiping and reflashing.Anyone else getting this?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] h4m74ro:
Wow, couldn't believe my G1 can be that fast^^

Is there a way for my german keyboard layout to work properly? :(

Apart from that it's great, no crashs or the like.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vinaychopra:
I have also seen the reboot issue 2-3 times

I am using 1.10 it is awesome and will never try sense. I am fine with this small issue but wouldn't mind a fix. I love this ROM, fully loaded 5 screens facebook, TouchDown email, gmail etc. still no lag. Awesome work dude.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dwang:
Yeah I've seen this as well, not sure what the problem is at the moment.

I haven't been able to reproduce it consistently. If somebody can do that, then it would help to narrow down where the problem might be.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dills84:
hey Dwang, love your 1.6 build. Any plans on a 2.0 build with the fresh new SDK? I'd be looking forward to that.

Thanks again for your hard work.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dwang:
google hasn't release the 2.0 source branch in git so right now its not possible to create a dream or magic rom based off of 2.0.

Its possible to getting something running on the emulator but not an actual device.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] semm:
is it possible to add dutch language in any futher release?

i think this is the best rom just plain root and good speed
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zafayar:
Please Please Please dont, or at least maintain this branch if you do.... I love how functional and fast this ROM is. Eye Candy is not everything, and android already has as much eye candy as G1/G2 can handle.

Your ROM is on the right track, and does what it is supposed to do extremely well.

Now just waiting for v1.11 (Not that I need it - I am 100% happy with v1.10, but still...)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dwang:
v1.11 is out

v1.11 http://drop.io/p6y2omy5559#

* Update build.prop to fix google voice issues [thanks cyanogen]

* Kernel tweaks that improve responsiveness- instantly ramp up to max cpu frequency when an input event occurs. [thanks cy again]

At some point I think I may just stop updating this ROM and move to cyanogen since he's gone back to non-bfs kernel. No point in just porting his changes over to my ROM.

I tested out 4.2.2 and its pretty fast. I think mine still has the edge though due to the RAM hack and compcache enabled by default. :-)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] beanfondler:
Currently running 1.33.2005 on my MT3G. Is there any reason to change to 1.33.2009? Recommended partitions? 8gb class 2.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] DebauchedSloth:
I second that. I've tried a slew of other ROMs but this one is simply the fastest and most stable out there, and I always come back to it. Yes, it doesn't have all the eye candy, but it just *works* much better.

Thanks again.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dwang:
No need to update to 1.33.2009. If you have a magic/mt3g, no need to partition the sdcard.

I encourage everybody to download v1.11, its crazy fast (even if I do say so myself).

That patch I put into the kernel to ramp up the cpu speed on input really improves the UI performance.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] soulfullvibes:
Android 2.0

Will you be making this rom soon?

Android 2.0

Thanks and I am enjoying your rom on here soo much, I came from Hero and this is sooo much better!!! thanks again!!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Draxter:
I wish this ROm would support more languages! I had it installed but then saw it only supports english,french, german, spanish and italian...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] soulfullvibes:
Dwang one more question I am running your v1.10 do I have to wipe or can I just flash over top of the v1.10?

thanks,
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dallerup:
I just did an install from 1.10 to 1.11 without wipe. And everything works perfekt.

And again thanks for this super fast rom dwang
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dwang:
I'll start looking into other langauges support over the weekend when I get some spare time.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dwang:
Check out this browser scrolling test between moto droid android 2.0 and iphone 3gs. Then try it on my ROM v1.11. Zoom all the way out just like the video.

My ROM is almost as fast in the scrolling dept!

TMO OTA DRC83 US //this is what your rom is based on (english, spanish)

TMO OTA DRC92 EU //europe languages i guess

AOSP1.6_r1.2+ADP DRC92 ROM //this supports every language

Maybe it's possibly to do a aosp rom. unfortunatly i don't know anything else about that.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] shrimpeh:
I'm currently running v1.6 do I need to wipe before v1.11 or can I just flash it right away?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dwang:
You shouldn't have to wipe..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Loccy:
+1 for this question. Never upgraded past v1.6, never saw the need, but iff Dwang is thinking if shelving this ROM I figured I'd better get myself current.

And for what it's worth, Dwang, keep at it. Yours is the only ROM I've run for more than a few days at a stretch.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dwang:
thanks.. the thing is cyanogen is much better at keeping up with all the bug fixes and patches.

I don't have the time to do that. But one problem I had with cy 4.2.2 is that I couldn't get my calendar to sync, so until I solve that, I'll stick with my ROM and try to keep it updated when I can.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mramonks:
hi dwang

excellent rom keep up the good work.

Can anyone tell me the differences between dwangs and cyanogens roms. I have heard good things about both but only tried dwangs. Dont wont to wipe to find out its not as good.

Cheers
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kchau:
1.11 crashed for me today, i reverted back to 1.10 and it feels faster too.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jjcobm:
Got v1.11 installed on a fresh wipe, looking good. Thank you :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] StreetGuru:
I'm still on 1.10 - Just can't understand how it can possibly get any better! Thanks for sharing this amazing ROM dwang, by far the best one i ever tried. I'm sticking with it for the time being untill you start cooking something with A 2.0.

Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tudor00:
v11 seems fast but power widget and pure calendar seem to not work with it :-(

edit: after reboot widgets seem to display and work properly :-)

update: Wow! fastest rom ever. amazing! thanks Dwang, you're the best!

PS: if you are to add other languages, please do it only if no cost in term of speed. It is just perfect now!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fwboilerman:
where can i switch the apn on-off??
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dills84:
which Launcher.apk do i use to replace the "advanced launcher"? ADP or ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] acrawl1:
This is the best ROM ever, imo. I can't even go to another ROM after this. I went hero for a while (thanks to the dev), BACK TO DWANG... went cyan 4.2.2 (great work cyan). but BACK TO DWANG. If you shelf this... im done modding and staying to the latest version this. Unless you do something new. You got my support.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] j3di:
Just downloading v1.11, can't wait!

Roll on Eclair... :D

Thanks for the hard work Dwang
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dwang:
yeah if u want the standard 3 screen one, take it from the adp release.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Wolfyy7:
All hail mighty Wang
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dwang:
Thats Mr. Wang to you. :-)

Just kidding, just call me Dave..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rey424:
hey can any one post a video on youtube and post here the link to the video about the 5 screens that you guys talk about all the time. i have this rom and looks just like the out of the box donut.. to be onest i really like this rom it is fast i was tired with the hero roms they are nice but way to slow on my g1.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] optikalsaint:
Just installed this ROM on my new MT3G and I wanted to say thank you, because this ROM is really speedy. The only thing I have noticed is I lose battery life a lot quicker then I did with the stock ROM. Nothing too major but if you have any tips to increase battery life that would be fantastic! Thanks for your hard work!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zeesix:
Great work. Definitely the fastest rom i've used.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] atmmn:
This is all i ever wanted from a cooked Rom. Multiple screens, better browser, multi touch,fast, stable,etc and no partioins on the memory card. This is how donut should have been. Excellent:D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] atmmn:
I dont have any battery issues it seems the same as original MT3G Rom. But you may want to try to disable GPS, Wifi. Its automaticly activated when you setup the phone and allow google locations. Those festures drain the batter fast. That should do the trick......I hope:cool:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Accused187:
Best rom I've installed so far that fits my performance need. Excellent job. The MT support is actually a lot more fluid and usable compared to other roms that I've tried. :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] h4m74ro:
Is SetCPU still necessary or is a CPU management in dwang's mod integrated?

With setcpu i could set the standby cpu clock to 128MHz iirc. Maybe the mod is doing something like that already, please tell me.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] supa2001:
seems like cyan. solved the disappearing home screen issue.

It'd be great if you can incorporate the fix.

THANK YOU!!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crubbish:
thank you!

i've jumped to 1.11 from 1.6 (which in itself was very good rom) and i'm extremely happy, it's just about perfect!

dear dwang, thanks so much for what you do!
