Big problem w/ upgrade

I've been using an older CM Rom (< 4.1.99) and I'm having trouble upgrading to 4.2.3.1. I formatted my sdcard, setup the fat32/ext3 partitions, then I put the 1.6 recovery image and the CM Rom on my sdcard. When I apply the recovery update I get the following error:

E:Multiple firmware images

E:Can't store radio image

Installation aborted

Can someone please help me fix this problem? My phone is completely disabled now.
[G1 Android Development] QMAN101:
No. It is soley for the PC to use the phones 3G signal.
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
Yeah, we can only tether the PC to the phone, not the other way around. There is no USB host support available on the dream/sapphire platform so it's not possible to go the other way.
[G1 Android Development] jaaronmoody:
btw, the latest bluetooth update to the AOSP is a great improvement. I am receiving few if any bugs in pairing, connecting, and using headset controls. The only skipping i am experiencing is when there is major interference( electronic or physical barrier) or when the system is working on another process. GREAT WORK CYANOGEN AND ALL THOSE CONTRIBUTING TO THE AOSP!!!
[G1 Android Development] cmsweet21:
how many mins. do i wait for the G1 logo to pass?

or i think im already stock on the G1 Logo.

i have the latest spl/radio

wipe

formated the sd card using AmonRa's fat32+swap+ext2 +upgrade

but i still get stock on G1 Boot screen :(
[G1 Android Development] DOHCtor:
You might be having the same problem as me. What does adb logcat show?

Does it show this?

c:\ADB\tools>adb logcat
- waiting for device -
I/logwrapper( 47): /system/xbin/busybox terminated by signal 7
[G1 Android Development] jaaronmoody:
yeah, not that long. you need to first format aside from amon's recovery(watch out for the swap) and use cyan's recovery.... NOT BECAUSE I DO.... but because cyanogen doesn't want anyone reporting bugs using resources and builds that are not his own.
[G1 Android Development] dead2hill:
Are you flashing the userdebug-ota.14721 first?
[G1 Android Development] cmsweet21:
wat was that?

im flashing the latest cyans
[G1 Android Development] tommy6980:
Great work man! I'm having no issues at all so far. You have some beer money on its way.:D
[G1 Android Development] cmsweet21:
i almost flashed all cyans roms not using his recovery only on this 1. i fail
[G1 Android Development] brian_v3ntura:

reason why i am askign is becuz i find that awefully low..when i did it on hero..i usually get high 40s-low 50s mb
[G1 Android Development] splitlevel:
Blazing fast speed, resolution seems better now as well, I think thats a 1.6 thing but the call button and the home button do not work for me, the calibration tool force closes and any attempt to get into the search setting results in a force close.
[G1 Android Development] jaaronmoody:
oh yeah and if you believe that your bug has merit... http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/list
[G1 Android Development] dilfatx:
My phone has now restarted on its own 3 time with this new update... on its own.. now way to reproduce the issue because i can leave the phone alone and look again and see that it shutdown and restarted itself..

anybody else with this issue?

I had a clean install from 4.2 and updated all the way up to 4.3.1
[G1 Android Development] nyctrini3:
Not sure if anyone else is having this problem but when I send a music track via Bluetooth is music is either super fast or skipping. Is anyone else experiencing this??
[G1 Android Development] jaaronmoody:
calibrate the battery...ie... run it down to zero% in the status screen and charge while powered off. after the led turns green, charge 2 hours more. Power on and repeat. if you feel your battery is not reporting correctly, pull the battery and reboot. tip: turn off all drainers3g, wifi, blutooth, sync, gps, and leave off the charger. if it still turns off you may have a bad battery, or may not have drained it properly before charging it. if you feel that your issue is not your device's problem http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/list

Can anyone offer any suggestions? Did I brick my phone?
[G1 Android Development] henrykahn:
I just flashed to 4.2.3.1 and am i supposed to not have gmail? my contacts on gmail? youtube? and all these other apps? can i atleast get gmail back somehow and my contacts atleast?
[G1 Android Development] BookCase:
No Contacts after 4.2.3.1 update

I cannot access my contacts. i get an error saying, "Sorry! _ The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." (Force Close). Also, when the phone starts I get an error saying, "Sorry! _ The application Calendar Storage (process com.android.calendar) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. (Force Close)".

I reverted back to 4.2.2.

[G1 Android Development] oldsk00lz:
Okay, quick comments.

1st off...

I went 600ish hours on the last pre-donut CM release without a recycle, forced or voluntary.... Major kudos. I only saw some major slowness / wackiness 1-3 times, which cleared up on its own or with a killing of a process or two. It finally recycled on its own.... :(

Now onto the new release....

I did a fresh install, wiped and formatted my SD UNIX and swap partitions. Then installed tons of apps so it is comparable with my standard usage requirements. ;)

On the first run, it was quite fast. It did recycle when using "scoreboard." Then I caught it one other time rebooting!?? After that, it has been running smoothly with no hiccups. <<<>fresh install jitters<>>>

Camera/Video. I like the interface, but think it is limited in options (i.e. "unlimited" time during video recording, zooming (even though it not optical), turn off shutter sound????) and has a few processing speed issues.

Gallery photo upload to facebook hangs. Probably a facebook issue, but just an FYI.

Only 1 hang over the last day when going to the Home page. (nothing pinned)

general responsiveness... fast.

work email... working... We'll see if it starts "dieing" randomly like the old days, but is surely an app issue versus a cyanogen issue.

Gallery photos sometimes reeaaal slow. Atleast when adding the DCIM images, the first time in via Gallery Hung.. after that it was fine.

Still have to check out the USB tethering. If it is actually ... ummm... fast... and ALSO doesn't tear at the battery like Wifi Tetherless, then .... Oh Yeh Baby!

Big thanks to Cyanogen....

Very strange problem here - it JUST started.

At 1:02 am EST, my phone stopped updating the time. If I go into the Time & Date Settings and untick/tick the "automatically get time/date from network" option, the time will update that one time, but it won't update on its own after that. I used nandroid to go from 4.2.3.1 back to 4.2, but the problem persists. Could this be a problem with T-Mobile's network? Has anyone else noticed this?
[G1 Android Development] futango:
How did you install the rom in the first place?
[G1 Android Development] xcallibur:
try disabling the WiFi then try it... I had similar issues before and that helped a lot with the streaming... What kinda headset do you use?
[G1 Android Development] xcallibur:
I can confirm that as well... I think the servers were updating the DST settings... Reboot after 1:00 am and you should be fine... Mine is updating now
[G1 Android Development] jikei:
Just reboot.. Before the change, I noticed my time was off by about 8 minutes. I went in and saw that it was set to the network. I unchecked it, set the time manually to the correct time, then re-set it to the network time. After the change, the top right corner stuck at 1:59, but the time on the screen when it's blank and you hit the power button was showing the correct time. I rebooted and it seems to be ok now..
[G1 Android Development] Vaidal:
yes... same here...
[G1 Android Development] kylepotts:
USB tethering works great on Linux! Thanks Cyan
[G1 Android Development] NoNaym:
Sorry if I may have missed any recent previous posts, but I thought I'd mention that my desktop icons and widgets are disappearing again. As far as I know this was fixed recently by Cyanogen, just wanted to see if anybody else is getting this problem again, or if it is just me. I have a MT3G, w/CM 4.2.3.1 and M_Blend blue c1 theme.

Maybe its the theme... maybe I just need a wipe since I haven't done that in a while. Let me know what you folks think.
[G1 Android Development] nyijedi:
Thanks guys. I suspected the problem may have been related to TMO and Daylight Savings. All is working for me now as well.
[G1 Android Development] Brock Samson:
did you manage to figure out what was wrong? i tried searching the error and all i came up with was something about htc saying those are not the official images and they will have new ones. but i am wondering how everyone else got theres to work if they arent the official images.
[G1 Android Development] Cabarnacus:
Wireless tethering problems, great ROM though.

Am i the only one getting a fc when stopping the wifi tether for root users app?

And also aNetShare just doesn't work full stop (Doesn't attempt to gain SU permissions and freezes)

Maybe the ROM, Maybe the apps. Not sure.

Running a clean install of 4.2.3.1 and I love the speed and stability. Original method of leaving the ext3 partition alone during upgrade and carrying all the cupcake build data and apps over was causing me major headaches with speed and fc's. But a fresh start and installing all apps from scratch works just beautifully.

Mytouch force close problems

I have been waiting for the STABLE version of Cyanogen after using 4.1.11.1 so I finally decide to update..

So, after TWO DAYS of trying to do this I have lost all hope of every seeing my MYTOUCH running cyanogen again :(

I have followed the direction exactly but I always end up with problems. At first it was always freezing when I got to the Wizard Setup then it was freezing during random times when I got pasted the setup.. I wiped everytime and ended up hanging on the MYTOUCH screen at times..

I finally got some help from a friend on twitter @zapote21 (AWESOME PERSON BTW) am able to actually have the phone running without freezing BUT I'm not able to use MARKET or the BROWSER.. and who know what else..

I thought that it might be that I couldn't use gapps but my gmail & maps are working.. for the most part and my messaging from time to time depend on the wipe that I perform almost religiously now..

I tried to search this ENTIRE THREAD but I seem to be the ONLY one that has this certain problem.. so, I believe that I did something wrong.. but I folowed everything on http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Upgrading_From_Older_CyanogenMod_Versions multiple times but I always end up with some problem.

Any help.. I seriously need to get it together.. I'm about to throw my MYTOUCH off a building and just use my G1 (which has been really reliable) if someone would be some kind as to help me :)

[G1 Android Development] tmon4ju:
Other than just wiping. You have to install, HTC_ADP_1.6_DRC83_rooted_base, first. Then install, update-cm-4.2.3.1-signed. That worked for me.

1 question for cyanogen:

it's possible in the next rom release choose the destination folder of the bluethooth files received? (because now the files received via BT are put in the root of sdcard)

Timechange problem

Hey

I was up for the time-change in the office. My G1's notification bar did not change it's time. The other clocks (Alarmclock and even widgets) were all correctly adjusting to the new time, but not the notif. bar.

Thought I will just share this.

Running Cyanogen 4.2.3.1 & Android 2.0 stock theme (for CM4.2.3.1) on top of that....so I am not sure who the culprit is.

A reboot fixed it.

Thanks for the GREAT ROM!

Bert
[G1 Android Development] 2leaponover1:
I have had this problem not on 4.3.1, i am still running 4.2 It has restarted on my twice and once i was trying to make a call, the second time i have no idea i looked over and saw the android splash screen on a reboot. I don't complain cause i love the speed, but just letting you know you are not the only one.
[G1 Android Development] Appce:
I had the same after I took the battery out because the phone was frozen. I do not have a theme .

So you are not the only one.
[G1 Android Development] lotherius:
Just had a random reboot on my G1 from this ROM.... I had just disabled bluetooth (had been listening to music) and looked down and the phone was finishing a quite unscheduled reboot.

At this point, I'm done with Cyanogen "stable" for a while, because it is far from stable.
[G1 Android Development] mrfust81:
I too have been searching the forums to find out how to flash the latest BFS kernel.

Can anyone assist?

I'm using a G1 with CM 4.2.3.1.

anyone else having issues with their Gmail not syncing after the latest update (4.2.3.1)?
[G1 Android Development] Jak Crow:
I'm experiencing higher than normal battery drain. I had 75% at 11:30am yesterday, turned the screen off and had nothing running, and the phone had turned off apparently around 3:30 - 4:00pm due to low battery. The battery itself is 3 months old and has no problems.
[G1 Android Development] overground:
Try pushing stock audio files to /system/etc. Reboot, see if it stabilizes. If everything seems ok, you can try v2r2 or whatever you were using.
[G1 Android Development] vincom2:
Thanks for the help. But the htc sync drivers do work. Extremely noobishly I didn't realise that you couldn't usb tether your phone's wifi connection yet. 3G works fine. Thanks anyway!
[G1 Android Development] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
Thanks for the link. I used these on my internet-less pc and bam, we got data! And Cyanogen, you treat us too good. You are a beast at this. I said it before, and I say it again. Thank you. Hope to buy you another beer real soon.

Problem with google apps

I have just installed the latest CyanogenMod 4.2.3.1 and by the way i love it, but all the stock apps have dissapeared (google mail, maps, market etc) how can i get them back, I didnt have this issue with v4.2.2, is it done on purpose please help thanks.

Josh
[G1 Android Development] uiterlix:
I had three random reboots already. Unfortunately I didn't have to opportunity to save the log. Looks like 4.2.2 offered more stability. Maybe it's time to start a new experimental thread for @cyanogen when playing around with new features in the ROMs.
[G1 Android Development] vihil:
i just had 2 random reboots as well. not sure what happened the first time (might could've received a call or maybe it was just the reboot-vibration). second time was immediately after entering my pin.

upgraded yesterday from 4.2.2 to 4.2.3.1

hooked up the logcat now, let's see...

wiped sd card?

I just flashed the latest update through cyanogenmod, went straight to it after the reboot to install Enoch's theme and rebooted again. Now all my music's gone, nandroid, and my app files from my sdcard. All the apps2sd info and all my pictures/movies are still there though. This is highly confusing. Anyone got any ideas?

USB tethering not working

When I plug in my usb cable and check the "enable usb tethering" box, my laptop asks me for a driver and won't proceed to tether my phone's internet connection. What drivers do I need to use USB tethering? I'm using WinXP.
[G1 Android Development] _nobody:
i just wiped and flash 4.2.3.1 and now my browser will not open, it just forces close. anyone else have this problem or possible fix?
[G1 Android Development] harpreet1988:
I'm guessing you wiped before flashing 4.2.2? You're going to have to wipe data+ext partition then reinstall by flashing the htc recovery image then flashing cyan's 4.2.3.1 again.
[G1 Android Development] harpreet1988:
Browser works fine for me.

Try wiping data/factory reset and format ext2/3 partition. Then re-install the htc image and Cyanogen's 4.2.3.1
[G1 Android Development] highvista:
You can download and install the HTC Sync software. It includes a driver that will work with USB tethering. After installing the software, you can uninstall the sync software and leave the drivers installed via the "Add/Remove Programs" control panel. Do a Google search to find the software. I installed version 2.0.4 and tethering is working great under XP. Vista SP2 seems to have the needed driver built in.
[G1 Android Development] Ronnymes:
Never mind :)
[G1 Android Development] Noojin:
I would also like to state that I am having an issue with acore when rotating phone, sending messages even using the stock messaging system on 4.2.3.1.

Handscent is deleting messages. Is there a solution that I might have missed somewhere in this thread? For now, Ill have to downgrade to 4.2.2

is there any solution out there for the gmail sync issue that is not on the tracker ? i switched back to 4.0.4 until this gets fixed, because this is really bugging me ..
[G1 Android Development] DarkPontiac:
GMail sync issue? I live by my emails at times and never had a sync issue yet... (unless I closed out the GMail service in taskiller, which then rebooting the phone fixes that)
[G1 Android Development] tokyomonster:
Check the tracker, because myself and others are seeing the issue. For me it's not just gmail it seems that most background applications are not updating/alerting properly -- even SMS
[G1 Android Development] smuvman:
insufficient storage

Anybody else have this issue when downloading from the market? If so how did u fix? I did a search and can't find anything.
[G1 Android Development] xidominicanoix:
this is the guide i used ... worked like a charm
[G1 Android Development] brummiesteven:
Am also getting this problem it effects not only Google Mail and SMS but also anything which needs to update ie Caldendar, Contacts etc.

You can "Force Update" SMS by simply launching the SMS App, same goes for calendar but you need to go to Menu>Update.

For Caldendar/Contacts you need to go into sync options, deselect them from syncing and then reselect them again in order to get an update.

Where is this Tracker?

EDIT: Just to add, "Clear Data" in the Applications Settings only worked for about an hour.

[G1 Android Development] Hellek:
For me 4.2.3.1 was much slower than the 4.0.4 I used before. When listening to music while doing other stuff (i.e. browsing) I even had stuttering music.

I then noticed that the IM-service eats up all my RAM to a point where there is really only 1-2 apps running at a time. So I removed IM.apk, TmoImPlugin.apk, ImProvider.apk and (since it is related to ImProvider) also Talk.apk. IM did not work for me anyway since my phone number can not be retrieved from the SIM.

Since then, my G1 is a lot faster and the stuttering music problem went away too. I'm just wondering if other people experience the same. Would be good if that could be fixed in future releases.

Warning: Removing the files I mentioned will create a Force Close of com.google.process.gapps at startup. I don't really see that as a problem though.

Hi guys, first of thanks for taking the time to consider helping me.

Basically, last night randomly my g1 just switched off. When i try to boot up, goes to g1 screen, then boot image, then blank screen.

Boot into recovery, and it doesnt register i have an sd card in it, i wanted to wipe and reflash cm, or nandroid restore. - but cant do either as it doesnt think i have an sd card inserted.

Any ideas how to fix?

Many thanks

successful usb tether on mac os x?

your sig says you are on a macbook pro with os x... and you were able to get usb tethering to work? or am i missing something:confused:

no one else with os x has been able to successfully tether via usb so far.... did you find the magic key, or am i missing something (like you are on a windows or linux machine)?
[G1 Android Development] daveid:
Got a suggestion Cyan..

Can you move the USB Tethering Menu option to the Application - Development section? Seeing as the USB Debugging Mode alert comes on when USB is connected now, and selecting that alert takes you to this menu area, wouldn't it make sense to have the option to enable/disable tethering there?
[G1 Android Development] DarkFoxDK:
Agreed. Please, do tell :)
[G1 Android Development] SxxxA:
Seems like an SD card issue. Can you confirm it is working, for example when you plug it into a reader(PC)? You can try formatting and see if you get any errors. Usually the OS will complain if the card is broken..

But before you format, you should try taking it out, and putting it back in (maybe it was displaced, though unlikely). Then try to read it through a reader, and finally, if all fails, back it up and format. If you still can't use it, me thinks you're gonna have to get yourself a new one.. On the bright side, you can use this as an excuse to go up a class ;)

EDIT: I just realized what I wrote.... doh! You probably can't easily back it up, but it's still possible (on Linux, though, and I can't help you much there, but I know there is a tool that can do a low level copy bit-by-bit, so you don't loose your data)

4.2.2 Update Question...

If a file corrupts mid installation from HTC 1.6 recovery image to Cyanogen 4.2.2, is it possible to flash the HTC 1.5 Recovery image and re-install Cyanogen Recovery from HTC 1.5? I ask because Cyanogen Recovery Flasher reinstall doesn't work on HTC 1.6 (security hole plugged?) and was curious to know if rolling back would work. The solution that a member left earlier this weekend involves steps that I'm unfamiliar with. I've been reading about some of the issues with the latest 4.2.3.1 update and don't want to take my friend's phone there yet but 4.2.2 would be great.

I'd just like to find the least complexed way to either finish the update on my friend's phone or go back to 1.5 so I can possibly reinstall the Cyanogen 1.4 RF so I can try to update the phone again.

Thanks
