But i want to change my rom to hero but every hero rom i put on it gets to the htc and thens reboots. i rewipe so many times and still no joy but the cyanogen works well. please can someone help as i really like the hero rom. thanks
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jenol:
reformat the sd card and follow the dirrection very closely
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rawdi:
I have tryed that but still it doesn't work. Can you direct me on trying something else please. Many thanks
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knowfear:
1.Are your partitions set up correctly? fat32/ext2/swap? When in doubt, backup and reformat all partitions.

2.Which radio/SPL are you using?

3. Which ROM is it you are trying to use? Some require different things to be set up properly.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rawdi:
1.I have the partion set up fat32/ext2/linex I have formated the fat32 but don't know how format the ext2 and linex. How do u do this?

2. I have the 261 radio and can't remember the SPL but I have gone through the steps in the forum on how to root the g1. I even flashed my g1 again. I have a 32b motherboard. That's what it says when I hold the camera and on button.

3. I have tryed many JAChero roms and even the heroblur one. But can't seem to get it working. Do I have to have a class 6 sd card? Or can I work on a class 2?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
When you went to bootloader mode and saw you had a 32B board it would show your spl there. But most likely you need to wipe your ext partition. And I would suggest upgrading from ext2 to ext3.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brian_v3ntura:
did u wipe your ext3 in console before flashing
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knowfear:
you may want to clear your davlik-cache.

from terminal

su
cd /system/sd/davlik-cache
rm *
exit
exit

If you have ADB set up you can format your ext partition as follows (quoted from a different post)

adb remount
adb shell
rm -r /system/sd/*
reboot recovery
then flash your update

If I were you, I would back up my sd card to your computer and format the entire thing setting up all of your new partitions using parted from the recovery. Also make sure you remember to upgrade_fs after doing it.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derfolo:
My guess is that you have the wrong SPL. However, be very careful in changing the SPL--make sure that your phone is compatible (check the threads).
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rawdi:
i do have the 1.33.2005 spl. i have bought a class 6 sd card. formatted card and partitioned it now installing jachero2.2b. do u recommend or what rom do fink is the fast and stable one.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derfolo:
I have no reason to recommend against the jachero, but I don't run Hero ROMs. Do you have adb installed? If so, when you are booting your phone, run "adb logcat" on your computer. Post what you see when the reboot happens and someone may be able to offer more help.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brian_v3ntura:
hero2 1.5.1 run fast without bugs. pretty much some hero roms after 1.5.1 contain people search fc, no audio for recoring

Noticed the OZ Messenger was go so I downloaded it and it works, problem is that it doesn't connect and gives me the connection error and to check my settings. I can send and receive SMS and MMS texts.

I went through this last time I went from WM5 to WM6 but can figure out how I got it going and not sure if it even works with WM6.1

I do have Unlimited text plan just in case it gets brought up.

I do have to say that it works perfectly for me(WM6.1)...

I haven't found any issues yet..

Oh yeah. the OZ version is 4.1.3

I did the T-Mo MMS GPRS setting as been described but not sure if I am missing anything else?

SMS service? GSm, GPRS or preffered on both?

any input?

"Upgrade" to cyan's or enomthers ROMS
[G1 Android Development] slimster:
First of all if you want to "jailbreak" something I would suggest you buy an iphone; g1' get rooted. Second of all if you post in the right section you have a better chance of not gettinh flamed. Thirdly if you spend some time reading current/old posts you can get other peoples opinions on each rom. Flash and see how each rom works for you.....not all g1's react to the same rom the same way. Put some effort into it and you will be suprised how much more you learn. Good luck

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steve57925:
It does seem to have but how would i find out for definate. 1 thing i forgot to do is a wipe before installin 4.1.1.1 could this be the problem? If this is the problem would i lose all the apps and themes i have already?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
If you have Apps2SD then no, you won't loose your apps, but if they're on your phone, then you will loose them if you wipe. Wiping also deletes your settings too.

I'd try wiping and reflashing if I was you.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steve57925:
I tried a factory reset and that done nothing but i will try a wipe. Am i right in saying i will have to reflash cyanogen and radio? Or just cyanogen
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
just the ROM, not the radio.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doctorfugazi:
Usually after u install a new rom and sign into google u'll see sync symbol in the menu bar. once its gone all your google info should be synced to your phone. if the sync is not complete, and someone in your contacts list calls u the # will show up w no id. after every flash give the sync about 10 min depending on how big your contacts list is.

Once u get comfortable w flashing roms you should definitely partition your sd card. since most roms are apps2sd enabled when ever you install apps they are stored on the sd card. so when u start up with a new rom they automatically show up. partitioning also provides with alot more space. for now download "back up for root users" in the market. the app backs up all your settings, bookmarks, apps etc. and u can restore them after each flash.

partition info can be found here. if you are using cyanogen's 1.4 recovery thats good, but i'd like to recommend Ra's Dream recovery. it makes partitioning smooth as butter. i hope i explained everything right (chime in if not). and don't worry we've all been there.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steve57925:
right im all sorted with my numbers and everything now cheers guys, just one question what is the recovery image all about? when does that come up? what does it do? also how do i change the screen lock to a different style, i do like black and blue rather than the green standard one

Just flash a theme you like. Just make sure its compatible with your rom.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steve57925:
I have a theme sorted and its the blue metal one on open home although I'm using it through dxtop. Does anyone know if there is a way of just changing the colour scheme of the screen lock? When I was on the dudes rom it had a nice funky blue and black screen lock but now I'm on cyanogen 4.1.1.11 its got a not so nice green colour (I'm just not keen on green tbh) are there any custom screen locks out there at all?

Cheers

Steve
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
No you won't be able to change the color. You can look in the theme section and see if there are any themes you like better. I think they are all better than any of the open home, ahome, or dxtop themes. Or you can modify your own theme the way you want it.

Is there a way to make the manila startmenu have subfolder, like for games and office mobile?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] andrew-in-woking:
Yep

Hi brent372

It's a registry hack:

HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\Launcher\ProgramLauncher\X

Where X is the number relating to the icon you want to edit (0-29 by default I think)

Then edit the following keys:

Command = Blank

Display Name = The name of the folder you wish to display (e.g. Games)

Icon Path = Either blank or the full path of an HTC .qtc file or the numeral in a .dll or .exe file that represents the folder.

IsReadOnly DWORD=0

Path = The full path of the folder; e.g. \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Games

Cheers

andrew-in-woking
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] brent372:
Thanks for the info,

but I am confusion on the "X" part, where "X" is the number of the icon I want to edit.

I want to see GAMES as a folder in Manila with Solitaire, etc inside of it.

What would I use for "X" in this case...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] MCbrian:
Assuming you're referring to the 3-column, 10-row array Manila Start menu...

"Number of the icon..." refers to the postion of icon-placeholder in the array, where the top-row, left-column placeholder is number "0" and the bottom-row, right-column placeholder is number "29" (in the computer world, numbering begins with 0 instead of 1).

Something like that, anyway...I think.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] brent372:
Actually I am talking about the menu below that. The linear alphabetical list of all apps installed. It is the menu you get to by clicking on "All Programs" from the matrix you are talking about.

[G1 Android Development] ebg10:
Can you post how to use unyaffs on mac
[G1 Android Development] jubeh:
The easy way is to replace the /framework and /app folders into a working hero port, though problems could ensue due to differenced in libraries, so merging /lib is also a good idea.

Personally, I'd like to know what every file does and which lib apps depend on. The builds I've made before usually contain unused libraries that I don't remove because I don't know where they're needed and proper documentation is not available outside the source.

What I think you need to do is take the build, then merge the HTC provided proprietaries, and then use the rest of the libs with their corresponding boot.img (as they're created during compilation and depend on that particular kernel)

Again, I really wish I knew what all libs do (I think I know about 30% of them on a stock build)
[G1 Android Development] Zarboz:
....double post...aghhhh
[G1 Android Development] Zarboz:
boot linux on it

i know i need a file heirarchy

thats why i sat last night and compared a BARE BONES 1.6 build Cyanogens 1.6 and Tattoo and Hero.

i was pretty blazed soo i got bored REAL fast but i did have the mash of ion1.6hero boot just no images and stuck in boot loop and adb couldnt read the log (prolly due to drivers i merged without knowing)

I would WORSHIP someone if they can come up with a "guide" if you would of what apks correspond with what libs to assist in such merging efforts or porting efforts

like i outlined in my post in sapphire the idea is

1.6 framework + Rosie + hero + some blur effects (bouncy menu and screen transitions)

and the corresponding Tattoo apps that are portable and the ones that arent can be replaced with hero apps
