Possible Bug

Not sure if this is a Cyan thing or Wysie's

It goes like this:

Home Screen -> Dialer -> Call Log -> Long press a recent call

The last two options on this list should read "Remove all [contact name]" and "Remove all [phone number]"

Instead, I see "2131231009[contact name]" and "2131231009[phone number]"

Can anyone verify?
[G1 Android Development] GrayFox814:
Yep i can verify
[G1 Android Development] schmickers:
The tag-line to this ROM should be "CyanogenMod - making your G1 usable!" This is the best release yet, my G1 is running really smoothly, and the browser has become really usable. It still seems to never remember previous windows, but it sounds as if this is intentional due to low memory conditions, and I'm hoping to get a Class 6 SD card and look at playing with Swapper to try and fix it.

I'd like to second the MT native 1.5 keyboard. The HTC_IME force closes constantly and is slooooow - I prefer the native soft keyboard, but MT done right would really improve typing speed.
[G1 Android Development] naguz:
Sorry if this has been asked&answered in the thread before, but is there any chance of getting the stable versions back again? I care about speed and new features, but I value stability over both.
[G1 Android Development] dgriffin:
I can't see this update in cm-updater... odd?
[G1 Android Development] kwaille:
Try all rom updates in settings...
[G1 Android Development] dgriffin:
Huh, there it is... now I feel silly.
[G1 Android Development] evilfry:
same issue here, anyway we can just manually edit some files to fix this?
[G1 Android Development] ciwrl:
I think this is a Wysie related issue as it is his contacts app. It looks like he has released an updated version 2.12, so he may have already caught it. If I'm not mistaken, he and ChainsDD are the two who created that functionality, so they would know best about what went wrong...

Edit: It looks like they are functioning properly, just a problem with the labeling, so I can live with that till fixed
[G1 Android Development] Jestocost:
This is just bizarre...

Ever since updating to 4.2.11.1, my Gmail is acting really weird. I can't send emails -- they just get stuck on 'Sending' forever. I get new emails in my inbox, but when I read them they aren't shown as read in gmail on my computer.

There are no such problems with Calendar, so I don't think it's a sync issue.

EDIT: Never mind -- I just went into Settings --> Applications --> 'Gmail' and 'Gmail Storage' --> cleared the data for both of them. Gmail rebuilt all my contacts and data and then worked fine. Never seen that problem before.
[G1 Android Development] tnpapadakos:
4.2.11.1

just used the cm updater to go from 4.2.10.1 to 4.2.11.1

dowloaded update in 7 minutes

applied update without making backup

update took about 8 minutes

no problems or hangups

glad the pinch zoom is back, i much prefer it to the magnifying glass + and -

just surfed like ten different websites back to back to back with no slowdown or fc....smooth as silk

cyan you the man
[G1 Android Development] RAQemUP:
These are the stable versions actually... heh. Just when Cyanogen released CM 4.2 he kept having to fix bug fixes and decided to toss in some things while doing that.

I was doing the update thing on every release but stopped earlier this month. Now I am just gonna wait for the last 4.2 stable build to be released.
[G1 Android Development] klitao:
This solved my seriously unbearable slow slow slow laginess! I have been running 4.1.11.1 because these latest roms were unbearable, upgraded my linux partition from ext2 to ext3 (see instructions in the quote above), then proceeded with the standard installation instructions (page 1 via the man... Cyanogen). Thanks to everyone who's contributed. Wicked fast and no non-sense!

G1 from day1

Cyanogen Recovery 1.4

Rom: Cyanogen 4.1.999

8 GB SD, EXT3 (Yipee!)
[G1 Android Development] AustinKnight45:
Ok this is what I did after running CM's build v4.1.999 and it being sooooo slow for me now it runs just like a normal fast ass CM rom!

1. I backed up my EXT2 with adb "adb pull /system/sd/ C:\sdbackup"

2. Then I used UBUNTU GPartition an formatted my slow ass ext2 file to a fresh ext3!

3. I followed the instructions that cyanogen gave for v4.1.99x.

4. Now I sign into google when it ask, let everthing sync.

5. Run adb to restore backed up ext file "adb push %CD%\sdbackup /system/sd" you might have to put the sdbackup folder into your "C:\android-sdk-windows-1.5_r2\tools" folder that's what I did.

6. Now after adb push is done,type" adb shell reboot recovery"

7. Wipe data again, you don't have to if you don't want to but I did

8. Reboot and let it do its thing.

9. Enjoy!

10. Only tryn to help :o Thx Cyanogen for all your bad ass roms.
[G1 Android Development] xtony12:
i did everything as instructed but when it loads up to the android boot logo (2nd screen) it stays stuck as if its loading i left it there for 30 mins and nothing plz help:(
[G1 Android Development] dta1974:
Did you wipe and create the partitions?
[G1 Android Development] FantasmaTaans:
is

this supposed to look like the old g1 screen?
[G1 Android Development] xtony12:
yeah i did thats why i dont understand whats going on =/
[G1 Android Development] bals2oo8:
so is this being considered a stable version or experimental?

it seems to be very stable so far.. thanks alot cyan.
[G1 Android Development] bradycl_84043:
Screen occasionally not activating in 4.1.999

4.1.999 on G1... new issue I did not see on 4.1.99 or 4.1.11.1. Happened once this morning about an hour after I flashed and then again just a few minutes ago.

Phone was asleep, and when I hit menu to wake it up nothing appeared at all on the screen. I know the phone had not crashed because the pattern of buttons lighting up was just as I would expect when hitting buttons, but no screen at all no matter what I did. Had to pull battery to get it back.

I have not seen this reported yet on the thread, and I am having no other issues--I flashed directly to 4.1.999 from ADP and did wipe and rm -Rf * my /system/sd beforehand.

Has anyone else had this happen?
[G1 Android Development] PorchSong:
Yes this has happened to me, only a battery pull would recover it. But, I have not seenit with this build. What I am getting is the home screen with NO icons what-so-ever issue. This is where you come out of an app (or in some occasions, when I rotate screen) ALL icons disappear never to come back without a reboot. Wallpaper is still visible, and the tray works, just no icons. I have had occasions when icons were gone, or slow to repopulate, but this issue has them gone for good until I do a reboot.

Now as for how I got to 4.1.999. I did a complete factory wipe of phone and a reformat of sd, etc. etc. to get to 4.1.99. I used root backup for users to bring back my apps, settings, and most of my .db's (I left a few out like market). Then I did the 4.1.99 to 4.1.999 flash. I am using switchrom now (a sick, sick, and a masterly built script) for my backups now. And outside of the disappearing icons, all is well. Still have the slow phone call ring issue, but who doesn't?
[G1 Android Development] vinterchaos:
went to market, phone got REAL laggy.... tried to download a widget

phone rebooted on its own.....

is this weird? or a current issue?

is the apps2sd thing making me lag? i have a 4 gig class 4
[G1 Android Development] innerspace:
clarifications

For starters, understand I'm not complaining at all, just sharing my experiences.

I'm using a custom user.conf. 32mb backing_swap, 60 swappiness 100% good compress.

I run a lot of widgets, afaik they're all donut friendly. Here's a list:

Pure messenger

Pure calendar

Pure grid calendar

Any rss

Sports tap

Audio manager

Power manager

Mixzing lite

Pandora

I don't get a ton of fc's, but I did see one briefly before my kernel panic. Ftr I had a similar panic reboot on 4.1.99.

I'm also still interested in a difinitive answer regarding the dexopt at boot, what should a clean boot look like and if android shouldn't be doing this what would cause the behavior. My install was totally clean.

Finally, I haven't moved forward with the ram hacks because I'm trying to stay as close to "stock" as possible when tinkering with this new cyan rom.

Any input?
[G1 Android Development] xtony12:
so i re-flashed re-wiped and then it loaded up but when it got to the 2nd boot screen it loaded up but instead of booting up it just goes blank ... the screen turns black any suggestions?
[G1 Android Development] AndroTMO:
My issue was not wipes. Apparently it was the ext2 issue. Weird because it worked fine under 4.1.99.
[G1 Android Development] smithfb3:
CM 4.1.999 issues maybe try to reroot?

Well, I had major issues. I flashed "1.6 Recovery Image" and CM 4.1.99 incorrrectly and lost root. I reread the thread a few hours later more carefully and discovered my error.

I had to start form the begining [GUIDE] STOCK-2-CYANOGEN / Root, Recovery, Radio, Rom / Partition SD / FAQ

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=563679.

I placed in the stock 1GB SD card and used that to re-root my phone by following to directions in the above thread. Once everything was set I turned off my phone and replaced the 8GB SD card and now everything is working perfectly. So far. I have all the old programs back and no FC's.

I know this is drastic, but if you have a spare SD card maybe rerooting might help. It's easy to do.

I know my issue was my own stupidity and FC issues have nothing to do with root, but maybe starting with a clean slate will help.

Just my 2 cents.
[G1 Android Development] kerauno:
This probably caused by an incompatible app. I experienced this problem when using the terminal emulator in all the previous versions.

Open terminal emulator

exit

open terminal emulator

exit

go into settings

exit

open terminal emulator

it should hang at this point. If it doesn't do the same steps again.

This is why we emphasize that the rom is stable but the incompatible apps with FC's make it unstable and slow.

No answer on the dexopt. All I know is it creates the odex files.

Try running fix_permissions.

Also, did you have a theme installed? If so, you need to wipe first and then flash the new rom.
[G1 Android Development] bals2oo8:
my market app just kinda disappeared.

any ideas where it went?

and the camera and camcorder apps Force close when i open them
[G1 Android Development] xtony12:
i did have a theme installed but i wiped before anything and when i typed "fix_permissions" it said "file not found" im begining to think its something wrong that i did from the start should i just start all over again. put it back to stock then re - root?
[G1 Android Development] Major_Skidmark:
Performance - Lagginess - Forcecloses - Possible fix

I have been playing with different configs on my G1 and here is my solution. Hope it helps some of you....

Make your apps partition on your sd EXT4. There is some kind of issue between both ext2 and ext3 and compcache. It did not exist in 4.04, I did notice it in 4.11.1. When I would use compcache AND ext2 the lag and force closures made my G1 unusable. Ext3 made it better but only about 50%. When I reformatted int ext4 is was VERY fast, and only FC on extreme usage.

I entered a bug report on the cyanogenmod website with a little more detail. PLEASE, I say it again, please use the search function to find out how to make the changes I suggested.... It is very late and I am beat.
[G1 Android Development] innerspace:
well well... i'm blushing... maybe.

Looks like I was running an older version of a widget that may have been causing my kernel panic reboots, pushed it from an old apk backup by mistake. Removed it and am going to see what happens in the next 24hrs. :o

Still interested in the dexopt answer, the last time I installed 4.1.99 these went away, now they're back and significantly extend the boot time.:confused:

Also, re: ext3 vs. ext4: I ran on an ext4 partition since I got the phone and just recently switched to ext3 when reformatting via the RA Dream recovery menu. I have yet to see any major difference in performance when accessing files on the card or copying data to the card. I think the major difference between the two is the way journaling is handled, but don't quote me on that. Need to read up more.:rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] timal:
Thank you for the info. I do say it would be appropriate if the developer would suggest ext, 2.3.4 whatever ?
[G1 Android Development] drzodiac:
Really sweet update.

Pinch zoom in gallery is a blessing too. Wiped delik-cache and it worked great with ext 2 set up. Took a really long time to boot and be functional, but I guess it's expected.

New browser is nice too, next hurdle flash.
[G1 Android Development] thugmafia:
can anyone confirm we have pinch zoom cuz it dont seem to be working for me 4.11 bout to try 4.11.1
[G1 Android Development] jhermans:
Did that, works like a charm, thanx!

Have you read the topic title? it does say stable doesn't it? ;)

iGoogle gadget login problem

Since updating to v4.2.11.1 I am not able to login to my Remember the milk iGoogle gadget.

I am able to enter the username, but whatever I try all password data I enter is also added to the username field.

Don't know if this is specific to this gadget since it is the only one that I have that requires login.

Any suggestions?
[G1 Android Development] zsidane:
Running 4.2.11.1 but nothing has changed in Gallery (no multitouch). Is there a menu where to activate it or something I'm supposed to do?
[G1 Android Development] naguz:
Yes, but I have also used CM for quite some time. And stable is just not a proper description for this ROM as it is now. Things are changed and imported too fast to keep everything stable. The frequent update-fixes right after an update is one result of this. The other is that you can never expect a new update to just fully work - yet you have no choice but updating, since the version you are sitting with also have bugs.

The updates are all really experimental when they are released. They are not stable.

This is not in any way meant as a bash towards steve - it is just not possible to constantly add so many features and change so much, without introducing problems in the mix. The only way to discover these bugs and make it stable, is by testing on a larger scale.

A separate stable-version (as was done before) would mean that users could have a phone that "just works", because many bugs have been discovered and by those running the experimental branch, and ironed out.

Now, however, although bugs are constantly ironed out, new ones are still introduced, due to the aforementioned continous development cycle.

I am perfectly satisfied with waiting for new features until cyan has eclair fully working. With too little time on my hands at times, instability and sluggishness has become an issue for me. And so, I would love a stable branch.
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
Works on my phone, but as Cyanogen says:

/Mats
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
Again, this is what Cyanogen labled Stable so it is by definition Stable. If your opinion on what Stable means, doesn't match Steve's, find another rom that suits you. This may sound harsh, but it's not intended that way. But at times it people seem to think they are forced to use this or that and when they have issues with "this or that", subjects like this arise.

/Mats
[G1 Android Development] flip79:
Everything OK on my G1, but gallery swipe doesn't work. When I try to swipe, next/prev arrows reveal themselves and photo doesn't change. Am I missing something?

EDIT: ... but pinch (buggy) zoom works.
[G1 Android Development] snellx:
4.2.11.1 for me runs great so far. And my 'radio-not-loaded'-issue is solved.

Thx cyan.
[G1 Android Development] robbie725:
Flip... works here on my end no problem... try this when you see the next/prec arrows let them disappear(3 seconds) then swipe, of course if you are on the 1st picture you will not be able to swipe left as you are on the 1st picture... Cyan mentions that it is not perfect and he is working on it...

Peace

Non-American beta testers needed.

I'm pretty sure I've solved the longstanding 'issue 12' with date/days/time/etc localisation. Please test this:

http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=12#c148

and report there? (and please follow the instructions and do a nandroid backup first, I don't think it'll hurt anything but I don't want to mess anyone's phones up)

Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] derfolo:
4.2.5 is the most "stable" CM release of the 4.2.x batch so far. Runs fast, everything works including navigation and the Market. If you don't mind being a bit behind the bleeding edge, I highly recommend it. I love the CM roms, but I use my phone too much at work to stay out there with the latest versions. Wish I had another one to play with! ;)
[G1 Android Development] wbknox:
how do you remove an image that u flash?
[G1 Android Development] derfolo:
3 ways:

1. Restore the backup you made before you flashed.

2. Flash another image over it.

3. If #2 doesn't work, wipe and repeat #2.

Hello

HELP CM 4.2.11 broke me

Ok so I downloaded cm 4.2.11 with cm updater. I rebooted and cm 4.2.11 installed. I rebooted the phone after everything was all done and it was stuck at the Android loading screen. I let it sit for about 20mins before doing the 3 finger salute and rebooted. Rebooted and it did the same thing hanging at the android loading screen. I tried flashing back to the version previous to 4.2.11 and same thing hung at the android loading screen. I rebooted into cm recovery and tried wiping and installing adp then cm 4.2.11 and when my phone came up I didn't see any of cm's stuff. I went into "about" and it says for build number "dream_devphone-userdebug 1.6 drc83 14721 test-key. So i rebooted and tried to go back into cm recovery by holding down home when rebooting and I get a black screen with a triangle and a ! in the middle with a phone below it. So it looks like cm recovery is gone. I looked around on the internet and found instructions on how to unroot then reroot your phone. found here "http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/15/how-to-root-a-donut-phone-android-1-6/"

So I followed steps 1-4 on how to unroot but on step 5 it says "5. Hit Alt W to wipe the phone, then hit Alt S to load the update.zip" I don't have that. I have a all white screen that says press send to return to default settings any other key will cancel. I went ahead and pressed send. phone came back up and I tried installing flashrec.apk and that failed to backup. I failed to mention I tried that previous to do this. So a friend of mine who is also good at g1 and rooting recommended downloading Terminal and trying SU to see if I still have root. I downloaded and tried su command I receive "uid 10029 not allowed to su". So in a nutshell my phone is stuck with adp, no recovery manager, unrooted and no way to load rc29 to start over. Any help with instructions would be more than greatly appreciated.
[G1 Android Development] Mikey:
I get "Activity Home (in process android.process.acore) is not responding" very often. Whenever a decide going back to home screenafter finishing doing something.

It reloads all the apps all over again in the drawer........lagging the phone till it's done.

Is this normal??
[G1 Android Development] Mikey:
He updated to 4.2.11.1 that fixed that issue.

Why unroot a phone so quick.

For further advice, always keep a nanroid backup ;)

Repost your question in Q&A :)
[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
For starters, 4.2.11 had a known bug where it'd hang on boot, that's why the latest version is 4.2.11.1

However, to get to that point, you need to follow this: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/RE-recovery-img
[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
erm.... how do I respond to this without facing the banhammer.

No. This is decidedly not normal. A log of the FC would be helpful, but common problems include widgets that are misbehaving, app permissions being out of whack, and/or the google sync apps in the background failing.

Common solutions involve nuking the data for 'launcher' to clear the widgets/icons (then adding one by one until the culprit is found); re-flashing a known-good 1.6 base and CM; running fix_permissions; or other more drastic measures.
[G1 Android Development] sardas:
Everything looks fine here i updatet my G1 from 4.2.10.1 after nandroid backup,it took it about 8 minutes to boot and everything works ok for now.For those who complain about multi touch zoom in browser and gallery you should make very smooth movements in and out with your thumbs having them placed on upper and lower part of the image diagonally,and not in the center of the photo/page.So having them there and moving them slowly up or down should make it work.That works for me though.Thanks Cyan for one more time
[G1 Android Development] Mikey:
Dont worry about a ban hammer. I am a user just like everyone else on here.

Besides, im in a good mood this morning :D

Just TRY and help with respect lol

I have decided to come back to Cyan after using another rom, im slightly out of Cyan experimental loop ;)
[G1 Android Development] Mikey:
Found my widget issue that caused all these issues for me, it was easy since i only have 4 widgets lol

Thank you a ton :)
[G1 Android Development] damngood98:
sorry for the newb question but how do you flash the bfs image via console/recovery? only image i ever flashed was a new recovery. already flashed 11.1 but would like to try bfs. thanks :)
[G1 Android Development] naguz:
I am merely requesting a stable version. I find that is not any worse than other requests often posted here.

Words have meanings. Something that is unstable is not stable. Labeling something unstable as "stable" doesn't magically make it true. This is, as his previous experimental builds, experimental releases.

His change of heart when it comes to naming his (experimental) releases stable does not, unfortunately, make them so.

While I am looking for a replacement (probably something stock 1.6-based, or an ASOP based one that is more stable, and more "frozen" around 1.6 for stability and compatibility with 3rd party stuff), I do believe more people than me would welcome a stable release, while the experimental ones continue to be released, but are labelled as what they are - avalible for those who need that latest fix of bleeding edge, but not necessary for those who don't, won't or just doesn't have the time atm.
[G1 Android Development] KeithLM:
Went from 4.2.10 to 4.2.11 last night and it seemed fine. Phone locked up overnight though, and after pulling the battery it came up and said the SD card format was unrecognized. After a couple reboots, it recognized it. Put on 4.2.11.1 and things FC all over the place. Google Voice, Weather Widgets, Weatherbug, Facebook, Newsrob, Sherpa, etc. Hardly anything will run. Some of the apps start, then FC if they try to do anything. Any ideas how I fix this?
[G1 Android Development] Burag:
When SD Card is mounted I'm getting little lag (black screen for a while) and then my launcher is reloading... :O

And as somebody mentioned, swiping in gallery works, but its reversed :D

Also having pinch zoom in galery would be nice.
[G1 Android Development] Riel:
No issues but the power-widget is not working.

It has 5 sections but they are all empty and pressing them doesn't do anything.
[G1 Android Development] Mikey:
Read post 1 for directions
[G1 Android Development] sardas:
If you want read my comment on top of previous page it is not reversed,it behaves like reversed if you press in the center of the screen and make fast movements.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Put a fresh power wid on the desktop..Then wait for it to load, and try rebooting to see if anything changes.

*Don't mount the phone! Have you already forgotten about Apps2SD? Dont you remember where it is located? The phone cant access the sd card while mount
