A few questions before proceeding

Just wanted to ask a few things before taking the plunge.

1. Does it matter if I have a theme installed, particularly Ted's Hero Theme?

2. I just got a new SD card and setup the partitions but apps2sd does not seem to be working. Does it matter which order the partition exist on the card? I'd like to clear this up before setting up the phone again.

3. Does the wipe remove all apps and settings?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arch113:
After loading the 4.1.99 and failing. I no longer have root access to my phone. SU gives me permission denied, attempting to load the cm-recovery 1.4.img access denied.

When I try to load the 4.1.99 or 4.1.11 (which is what I am running now) I keep getting 'Installation aborted'

I even tried to flash back to rc29 (to follow the steps of rooting the G1), I get the same error when I try to load any ROM (Installation aborted)

Please Help
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B-man007:
1. As long as you wipe, it should matter.

2. Yes they have to be in this exact order

FAT32, EXT, Linux-Swap

3. It removes all settings, but if you have apps2sd, the apps will stay. Else they too will be gone. There are backup apps on the market as well as Backup for Root Users here

You have root, you just don't have the proper binaries

2 questions if i may

Well pretty simple on the questions but here goes.

I have been using cyans for a long time and my sd card is split with just the fat32 and the ext2 partitions. What I was wondering was can I still do the 3 partitions cause I hear that the other partition the swap is good to have?

My second question was that when I was loading his rom the 99 I did do a ext wipe and all went well then after installing my apps through market/downloading I noticed his 999 and well I updated to that but was running a bit slow so I figured wipe ext again. Well I did and when trying to reinstall my apps same as before market/download it says that there already installed on my sd card but I can't open them nor install them. Any ideas on maybe a way to clear that or something? Thanks for the help

issues

i'm having nothing but problems with this update. I am upgrading from cyanogenmod 4.0.4. i followed cyanogens steps and everytime that i try to log in to google to get the syncing and everything working...it says that i do not have a network connection. funny thing is that it shows that i have 3g coverage and i have about 3 bars of service. i do not however see the 3g showing that it is sending or receiving. i've looked all over the thread here and saw that people were having this issue...but theirs were not showing any 3g coverage. if anyone has any answers...it would be greatly appreciated!

Lost root

I had the same problem and tried everything. There is only one option that works.

You have lost root you need to re root your G1.

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

Follow the instructions exactly, but use a different SD card. You need a clean emply SD card for it to work. I used the stock 1GB SD card my G1 came with. Within 1/2 hour you should be in business with CyanogenMod 4.1.999. It's awsome

Good Luck
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B-man007:
You can still repartition your card. You will have to reformat it though.

if it says its installed, then uninstall them and reinstall.

i dont think your wiping your ext properly if its giving you that error. besides, you should be able to reinstall right over them

That happened to me As well I fixed it by wiping ...

unfortunatly Never did fix the lag
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] holmes901:
So pretty much you wiped the ext or you wiped and reinstalled the rom? Yeah actually after a while it has started to show its speed. It now takes a matter of about 2 min to load starting from pressing power to turn on to getting to the home screen
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] holmes901:
Well what I did was use the RA-dream-v1.2.2 recovery and the selection to wipe SD: ext partition when I was updating to 999 and when I went to market what I got was the options to say update or uninstall not selectable
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] holmes901:
OK I know that I have posted a lot but wanted to report that I formatted my card using paragon partition manager and then in the recovery mode I let it partition the fat/ext/and swap so now is is working and I can actually install my apps like normal thanks to all that helped.

Hi Guys,

I am new here and are currently using WM6.5, working great. I've heard that the version of the radio has a huge impact on sound quality and battery life.

Went back to WM6.1 and was able to find the Firmware Version, i assume this is the Radio? currently it's at 1.16.00.00, is this the stock radio and which one is considered to be the best? i am with telstra 3G if that makes any difference?

Thanks

http://pocketnow.com/tech-news/windows-mobile-65-att-htc-pure-unboxing-video

http://pocketnow.com/tech-news/htc-pure-windows-phone-hardware-tour-for-att

No 3.5mm jack, 3.2 screen the TP2 and Imagio have 3.6" screens, no rounded corners form factor, and no MediaFlow turner with kickstand antenna like the Imagio The phone comes with no headphones and a very big dongle adapter for headphones. This is a deal breaker for me. The Verizon Imagio keeps looking better and better... functionally and aesthetically.

Thanks guys for posting all the reviews... I went down and picked up one of these for my daughter today. This is a really nice phone, HTC has done a great job with this one. I also really like the body that ATT is using, I think it looks much better in person than it does in pictures. The other thing that impresses me is the speed, Manilla 3d runs smooth and fast.

I may have to go get one for myself.. :)

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] techhi:
I just picked one up last night.

I was forced into getting the $30 Data plan after having the unlimited $19 plan for about 4 years. I'm coming from a FUZE to this

the build quality is very nice

the phone is slippery wish it had some contour or rubber on the back

screen is much nicer then FUZE but I'm still wanting bigger.

no 3.5mm jack no big deal

very light and thin

sounds louder with its side speakerphone (NJ laws while driving)

I miss the D-pad for one handed scrolling

Camera seems to take nice pics but

Bummer No Flash - I use to use the Flashlight app with the fuze

Haven't tried tethering to my Laptop yet which I use about once a week.I'm sure it works its in there

never really used the keyboard much on the FUZE so not much of an issue

I was going to hold out for the TP2 but at $150 more just not a good time with $ being scarce. I really just want a bigger screen maybe next year or another device.

trying to HARDSPL it but having problems and errors so I know it will be much better with a Energy rom on it when i get it

[*]one there.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] HTC Touch Freak:
A quick question. Do you all have the HTC app for using your phones as WiFI hotspots? It's called 'WiFi Router". Or did AT&T pull that off of the device? The coocked 6.5 ROMs have it in them and it's cool. I was playing halo while using my phone as the router on Edge. But since you ATT folk have US 3G on your Pure's then it'll be even better.

Take that Sprint MiFi.We get free MiFi with every WM phone Purchase. :p

One more Q. Can someone post up the Software information on the pohone?

Manila Version:

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] HTC Touch Freak:
So from that pick I'm assuming that you have a European T-mobile Diamond2. I miss seeing the 3G on mine over the summer. of course you have the router app. Your running it on a cooked rom.

Believe me. iIf your not mentally retarded you can two-thumb type on this better than an Iphone. You can also poke with one finger at the screen if you want and stiil be more accurate.

What other options are there for the keyboard? Has anybody had problems with the batter life?

[HTC Excalibur] phatmanxxl:
I complained that the "a" key stopped working on my dash and I asked for a different phone, all they offered me was the 'o9 shadow, no other choices. I was tryin to get the 3g dash. I took the shadow since I already have a dopod dash.
[HTC Excalibur] rilbel:
Oh really?

How is the new Shadow working?
[HTC Excalibur] crz6662:
yes it's possible

you have 14 days to return or exchange a phone w/t-mobile. either defective, just don't like or whatever. i've done it about 4 times. you can exchange for a different phone, pay extra or refunded the difference, or just return for a full refund. the return has to be postmarked by the 14th day of receipt. other than that your out of luck as far as i know. outside the usa i don't know. hope this helps.

PS: if you have insurance on the phone, ie:defective, for a deductable charge the phone would be replaced. $6.00 a month
[HTC Excalibur] rilbel:
Thanks but I already knew that. :)
[HTC Excalibur] Greg530:
IMO the build quality of the old Dash is far better than the 3G. There is something very awkward about the new model.
[HTC Excalibur] hawksball55:
FYI: They do have whats called a multipal exchange program where if you replace your device 3 times in a 3 month time frame then they will replace it with another device of equal or lesser value but they will not replace it for a better device such as the dash 3G or BBcurve. Even if talking to a superior they will only offer you a full discount with a 2yr contract or a switch to another device of equal or lesser value.

Google Ion 1.6 for HTC Hero.

This project aims at getting the stock Google Ion Rom to run on HTC Hero. No Rosie or any HTC apps will be ever added to that rom. Once fully functional it could be used as a base for cookers.

Current release: Lox-ION-1.0b3 (logcat)

What works:

- place, receive calls

- wifi

- Market

- GPRS

What does not do far

- bluetooth (logcat seems it is relative to libc.so - Uncompatible with current kernel ?)

- trackball

- compass & accelerometer (with akmd > logcat - with ak8973 > logcat )

- GPS

- camera

Note: devs please test hack and share if you fix anything or have any idea

Trackball I'm still not sure about, the keylayouts have the same keycodes but still doesn't seem to want to work. Accelerometer just needs the permission to be granted to execute, except I'm not to sure how to do that cause I'm a bit new to linux.

Some issues might also be tight to kernel version.

Market Apps

Hey all.

We've got a problem with the Donut Market over in the Vogue forums. In Donut, when we load up the Market, there are only 20-30 apps available. Going back to Cupcake builds, the problem persists. However, logging in with a fresh Gmail account gets rid of the problem (in Cupcake.)

So far, my guess as to the cause of this is that Google's server have taken note of any "pirates" accessing the as-of-yet unreleased Donut market, and locked them out. However, I don't see any complaints along those lines here.

So, my question to all of you is, while you say the Donut Market is working, do you still seem to have access to all the applications you did in Cupcake?
