WHEN In DOUBT

I see there's a few people having problems with this rom and from the looks of things they're not really problems with the cyanogen rom itself (except for the freezing lol).

Almost 90% of the problems I've read lately I have been through myself. Maps not installing, black screen, boot loops, especially LOSING MARKET AND OTHER GAPPS! ect ect. Most of these annoying things r due to the fact that WE FLASH OUR PHONES A ****LOAD. A lot of things can go wrong when you flash an update, we all know this. There's so many different configurations all of us are running we can't expect cyan to anticipate, and even crazier, fix all these "issues". Most of which aren't really his fault.

Basically I'm saying this. Keep a dreamdevphoneota.zip on your sd. When **** goes bad, wipe, install the ota and flash your cyanupdate over it. Its not hard at all (at least with amonRA recovery). I'm just saying, SAVE YOURSELF THE HEADACHE. All its gonna cost you is a wipe (which you're prob gonna end up doing anyway) and a few minutes of your time. Compare it to hours of searching and asking for help. BTW THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO FIX NONWORKING GOOGLE APPS! For the love of christ....

This is what has helped me stay sane on my wild ride through cyanogen town :) .

4.2.7.1 and google maps update

Just after I updated to 4.2.7.1 this afternoon, the Marketplace popped up with a Google Maps update, to rev 3.2.1

Has anyone been able to install this update via the marketplace? I keep getting a "Installation Failed" error. From 'logcat' it appears to be a package signing issue?

D/vending ( 2350): com.android.vending.api.LocalAssetDatabase.notifyListener(): 1042788397605983297 / INSTALL_FAILED

The last time i was having issues with nandroid, I would of never thought that it was just my memory card was full, lol, give it a check, you never know!
[G1 Android Development] apple_crusher:
+1 I've never had all these problems and I have two phones. Over clocked, huge swapps and I've flashed most ROMs out there more than once. For cyanogen, keep the devphone zip. Back everything to your desk top. Use back up for root users (just the app part works best for me. the other crap on there causes me problems)

In short both my phones a running great with 4.2.7.1 themed with

MetaMorph. :cool:

What branch r u n? I'm USMC. 0331 Infantry Echo 2/4 OOHRAH! Good luck over there. I was n Ramadi west of Baghdad. Check out my unit on youtube. I'm the last one left.:mad::mad::mad:

4.2.5 > 4.2.6

home screen lag when coming out of app, checked home app locked in memor was checked. then tried compcache instead of swap (turned off swapper) and tried swapper without compcache, still happened. sometimes had some fc but just the laggy homescreen

4.2.6 > 4.2.7.1

so far no lag on homescreen. locked in mem - hmm just checked and im using both compcache and swapper at the sametime. been running for about 10hrs so far and no issues yet. will report if i get laggy homescreen or any other issues
[G1 Android Development] psguardian:
run commands in terminal with SU rights. then goto market & search/install google maps, if the install still fails "rinse, lather, repeat" I had to go from 1st command to install failed 3x before it worked, but it did work. your results may vary... if this fails search the thread for "3.2.1" there are other fixes posted here this is just the one i used.
[G1 Android Development] ShatBag1105:
Damn straight! Army recon btw.

Wtf did cyan do to "fix" compcache (changelog)??? I've been running it all day and havnt expierienced any lag so far. Usually id have needed to disable by now. Wow
[G1 Android Development] iGoOsE76:
A Clean Install seems to work fine for me upgrading to 4.2.7.1. as far as the Google map, I used the ADB instructions to delete the current map I had and installed from the market. Also Sir_Mez-M_Blend_b-v2.6a1 and SiRMez_Blue_A_launcher_V3 works fine with 4.2.7.1

[G1 Android Development] millowster07:
Google Nav Maps and such

I posted this a ways back but if you are familiar with how to do a clean install of Cyan's roms with using a base rom then flash his on top then just use this base adb1.6 rom and flash Cyan over it. I placed the maps.apk with nav in the rom and signed it.

I have a Mytouch (32B) and flashed fine both 4.2.6 and 4.2.7.1 work great. No FC, no errors.

I hope this helps you map people out!

Thanks for another great ROM update, i just flashed 4.2.7.1 as i do every other update with no problem. I also install every app that i want without a problem including Google Maps With Navigation. Cyanogen FTW.

I think I found a solution, so I'm putting it here in the hopes that it may help someone else.

I found in another forum (http://androidcommunity.com/forums/247309-post15.html) that they had installed sound manager and had got the vibration notification to work again. I installed and set under the menu for vibration to always for notifications. That worked. I am now extatic that I have a working 4.2.7.1 with notifications.

Also thank you cyanogen for all your hard work for making this an excellent ROM.

I just experience a strange problem, I am using the latest ona G1.

Anyone know where i can get that 'signed-dream_devphone_userdebug-ota-14721.zip'? On the page, it no longer appears to be a link and i cannot download it. Are there any other links to the same file? Or am i stuck at 4.1.11.1 for good now unless i decide i wont have all the Google specific apps?

Any reply would be appreciated.
[G1 Android Development] randomness55:
alright thanks for the suggestion.

i was about to flash 4.2.7.1 but again, my nandroid didn't let me create a backup. it just says error, cannot create backup

I am experiencing the same issue. Tried w/ compcache and without, both with home in memory and without.
[G1 Android Development] Joe333x:
hey cyan. i know you probly wont even see this post with the hundreds of useless posts that roll in after every release from people who dont know how to flash an update but if by chance you do see this. Would it be possible to add an option to spare parts to turn on linux swap partition, and set swappiness? I like how you added the compcache option but linux swap partition seems to be the more stable less bug free way to use a swap.

USB tether broken

I upgraded to 4.2.7.1 with the CM Updater tool from the Marketplace. USB tether no longer works. When I attach the G1 to my Windows 7 workstation, it shows up an unknown device. Anyone else having a similar issue? I installed HTC sync 2.04 to get tethering to work in the first place.
[G1 Android Development] pspinler:
Thanks for the advice. Tried several times, but unfortunately, still no go.

Following your further advice, I searched for any 3.2.1 install directions on the forum, and following those, I downloaded the 3.2.1 Maps.apk from myhangoutonline.com, manually removed any /system dwelling Maps.apk and/or com.google.android.apps.maps.apk, then attempted to install with adb install. However, I still get an error:

$ adb install Maps.apk

pkg: /data/local/tmp/Maps.apk

Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE]

If anyone has further ideas, I'd appreciate the advice.

I keep getting an "android.process.acore" force close. I was on 4.2.6 with the android 2.0 theme installed and I kept getting it. Now I just upgraded to 4.2.7.1 and installed dark dream v1.7. I still get it. Once I do all my icons disappear then reappear after about 30 seconds. Anyone have a similar issue??
[G1 Android Development] caysman:
SMS Backup does not work since 4.2.6 till now.
[G1 Android Development] AustinKnight45:
You need to wipe then install the rom.

Use "Backup For Root" to backup your SMS
[G1 Android Development] GBerg2119:
Now because I'm going to wipe it, I need to install the 1.6 Recovery image correct? Then install 4.2.7.1
[G1 Android Development] javon27:
Dude, is there anyways i can give you stars? I totally agree. I'm starting to think this rom needs its own dedicated board, with different layers of noob built in, lol.

But to add, for those that dont wanna lose precious data or have to redownload apps, here's what you do:

Download backup for root and astro file manager from the market. Use backup for root to backup sms, data, and bookmarks. I dont suggest backing anything else up with it, cuz you thought you had problems before? Not like when you have backup for root backup everything.

Use Astro to backup your apps. It comes with a tool that helps you identify which apps need a new backup due to an update. It also comes with a mass installer. You still have to press okay for each app's permission, but is still loads better than installing individually.

If you have fc's after doing this, run fix_permissions

But, yeah man, be safe in Afghanistan.
[G1 Android Development] AustinKnight45:
No you don't just wipe and then install the rom what recovery do you have CM1.4 or RA-dream v1.4.0? If your using RA-dream 1.4.0 then wipe your dalvik-cache too.
[G1 Android Development] 2rz_taco_sr5:
not sure if its been covered or not... i searched but this thread is getting big. heres my prob tho. i cant restore my call or sms from backup??? i was using the official aosp and if i flash back to it they restore but not in cyans mod.... does he use a different message program? anyway to switch back to the other version so i can get my stuff back? if not its not the end of the world but i like to be able to look back at things if i need to. any help is greatly appreciated!

EDIT: rebooted and tried again and worked fine! i have missed cyan on my phone. i switched to the official aosp when all the crap started coming up but after a couple months it got so slow! i think ill be very happy with this rom. just to be sure this is fully optimized right? i dont need to raise the max clock or do any swap settings or anything do i?
[G1 Android Development] GBerg2119:
Ive got CM 1.4.
[G1 Android Development] AustinKnight45:
CM is good RA's just has a lot more options like wipe dalvik-cache, but use CM first just wipe then flash the rom and see what that does, and if your still having the issue I would clear the dalvik-cache or flash the RA- dream 1.4.0 recovery image and wipe the dalvik-cache from there
[G1 Android Development] randomness55:
could just be one of your apps or widgets that doesn't work with the ROM. I was having the same problem. I had a widget on my home screen and a lot of times I would get that same message. I took that widget off my home screen and I didn't have that issue again

*EDIT

Sorry, I quoted the wrong post. I meant to respond to the poster who mentioned the acore force close issue

Sorry to thread-drop, but I was wondering the same thing. If I am coming from 4.2.6 and want to wipe and start fresh, do I have to reflash the htc zip, than 4.2.7.1 without rebooting, or do I just have to wipe and then flash the 4.2.7.1 zip? Thanks and sorry again for dropping in.

Hey, I didn't know if this would be possible, but I see from another thread that it is, so....

how about including the Contacts.apk from Eclair in your roms? (the cool new dialer)

Also, I like the new Latin IME better (the way it auto-changes from symbols back to abc when you hit space, among other things). Just, some drag-n-drop changes to Eclair goodies would be great. I haven't been able to do any testing, though, because I don't currently have CyanogenMod installed... I'm testing some Eclair-based builds.

[G1 Android Development] ready4thebreak:
I guess I'm like the only person hasn't had any massive problems flashing this new ROM. The one issue I am having having however is the Java exception with AdFree, I've tried revert my hostfile and everything, but I'm off to that thread to see if there's a fix yet. Ok wair nevermind, I literally just tried again and it work perfectly. That's really really strange. But Like others said, I ALWAYS keep a working version of previous flash AND a Nandroid backup. I guess you guys have never had a BSOD or hard drive failure before Android... But then I wonder if you've even used a computer at that point.
[G1 Android Development] AustinKnight45:
No you don't have to flash the htc zip, just wipe first then flash 4.2.7.1 or flash over 4.2.6 and come back on here and start telling us all the problems you have :D

Ive had that same issue I think it has to do with Superuser Permissions app, I don't really like it I have to ALLOW and check it then it never works then I have to go back to my home screen and then back to one of my root apps like terminal or adfree and they will work.

Haha, will do. So basically, now that I have already flashed the htc base once, I no longer have to do that after a wipe? Whenever I want to start fresh, a simple wipe and latest Cyan rom flash will do?

In theory yes, you shouldn't have to re-flash the 1.6 base once it's been flashed.

In reality (and especially if you're having google app issues, including sync stuff) it's been shown to help if you do re-flash the 1.6 base before CM. Most of the time you don't even need to wipe.

Hi, I really need help. I have tried everything I know.

I am using a G1. I was on 4.2.6 and tried updating to 4.2.7.1, and now I'm having many problems.

1.) The update to 4.2.7.1 went through but the phone was stuck at the HTC Dream logo. It didn't go past that no matter how many times I tried.

2.) I removed all partitions, remade them, wiped/FDR and then flashed 1.6, followed by 4.2.7.1 and had the same result - HTC Dream.

3.) I failed at updating for a whole day. Then it finally worked and I booted into the Setup screen where you enter your username and password for the first time. Multiple FCs.

4.) I tried the whole procedure again (including removing all partitions and repartitioning) which either got stuck at HTC Dream logo or ended up with multiple FCs.

5.) I even tried it with 4.2.6 and nothing.

6.) Now, even when I get to the setup screen, my sim card is not being detected even though it's in the phone.

Finally, I tried to download all files again but the HTC website doesn't have links to the files anymore. It just has text, no clickable links. (from http://developer.htc.com/adp.html#s3)

Please help. What else can I try? I am still able to get into Recovery mode, but I've tried the procedure of flashing and rebooting more than 30 times. Its still not working.

EDIT: I am now able to consistently get into the Initial Setup screen. But no networks are detected. My sim card is in but I have no signal. I tried the same sim in a different phone and it works fine. If I skip the initial setup and go into the main screen with all the default icons, none of them work except settings. When I click them to open, they launch but just close without any messages. I can setup my WiFi connection but it doesn't see detect my SIM card.
