Always-on 3G?

alvinistic,

I think on 4.1.999, the "always-on" is always disabled. I'm afraid your fast draining of battery would be other reasons (say clock control of OS).

One of my SIM card is provided by a data-only MVNO, and the antenna sign always show "out of area." Even in this state, the "always-on" keeps connecting through 3G until 1.5. After 1.6, "always-on" menu disappears, 3G power is lost in "out of area" state, and 3G data connection lost. With another MVO SIM, 3G is available for 1.6.

From these facts, I've estimated that turning off the "always-on" then (1) turns 3G module on when getting into service (antenna sign appears), (2) if no 3G data access for a while, turn off the 3G module, (3) 3G data access occurs (and antenna sign still appears) turn on again the 3G module.

Anyway I need the "always-on" control panel from the opposite reason of alvinistic's. Does anybody know apps? As far as I tried, all the "2G/3G power control" apps simply calls that control panel, but nothing can directly beat the power port of 3G module.

And is the control panel (settings) function depends on the OS or mods?

thanks,

Issue:

Spare Parts -> End button behavior doesn't working properly.

How to rep:

Set to "Home, then sleep" -- End button not working at all.

Expected:

First press switch it to home, next to sleep.

Update something from lolcat on booting:

adb logcat *:W *:E

just discover a problem

when i am using traditional Chinese as locale and try to open market(first time open market)

it just redirect me to the browser again and again(no button "I agree" to press )

Then i change the locale to English(US), it works and i can finally press "agree"

After that i change the locale back to chinese and now it is ok

Another question, how to add chinese input to cm rom?

Does the htc-ime indicated in the first page have chinese input?

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dasfliege:
# Do a "Wipe data/factory reset"

# Do a "Wipe SD: ext partition" ** (see below)

(it is recommended to wipe your Apps2SD partition for this release)

how can i do that? in fastboot i can choose

- hboot mode

- reset device

- restart to hboot

- power down.

Is it normal that there are like 1000 different ways to flash a new rom? i really have no clue what to do, because everyone tells something different.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Radix999:
You must have missed the previous step that said to be in recovery mode.

You do those steps FROM recovery mode, not fastboot ;)

And no, it's not really normal to have 1000 ways to install roms - they should generally all be installed exactly the same way - boot to recovery, wipe, install, reboot.

The install procedure may vary from rom to rom, but not much really.

The only difference is that this rom is legal and does not include any additional apps, so you need to install the default rom first, then cyanogen's rom.

And because cyanogen doesn't support 32a, you need to install my kernel port on top to get 32a support.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jokeyrhyme:
Hmmm, I was sure I didn't need to install the optional audio fix with the latest kernel, but some of my friends thought I was unusually quiet so I went and did it anyhow.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tempus6:
Thank you so much it works great on my 32a rogers magic!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tempus6:
Yes, but this also happened to me using the hofo community rom. Maybe a bug in wifi-tether?

Another (minor) issue. I notice that the popup window transition (including sliding transition when pressing menu button) is a bit laggy in 4.1.999. This is quite obvious when I do a long press on home to add widget. I remember it was fine in 4.1.11.1. Does anybody experience the same thing, or is it just me?

Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
I was getting complaints of low mic volume - I think you should repackage the AudioPara4.csv into the port file. It doesn't make sense to have to have a separate file just to flash the Lights.ko and AudioPara4.csv. They are 58kb combined. If you are worried about legality, repackaging them in another file is still distribution - plus the .csv file is basically a glorified text file - I wouldn't worry about it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] AltDimension:
Having an issue when I restart the phone all my text messages are deleted. This is a huge pain, any fix or anyone else having the issue?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] computerdan:
I'm not seeing this issue. I'm on Rogers as well. In fact, the calendar synced up first before any of my email or contacts did.

Perhaps if you have everything backed up, or this is a fresh install, you can wipe clean and start over to see if it clears things up?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] computerdan:
Just installed this rom. Finding it very fast except for when I am typing a message in this forum. The typing speed is unbelievably slow.

The other problem is the new market. I am using market enabler and it installed fine, but I can't seem to get any priced apps to show up in the market.

Any ideas? (I searched the net for solutions but I haven't found anything...perhaps I don't have the right search terms)

Thanks in advance.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
Make sure you are using the newest version of Enabler (http://market-enabler.googlecode.com/files/MarketEnabler_v3.0.2-beta.apk)

Also, sometimes the T-Mobile US doesn't seem to work, try O2-de.

4.1.9999

Hi!

I installed the 4.1.9999 version that Cyanogen just released and then I flashed the kernel file from the instructions at the top http://fdsfiles.com/temp/rad-4.1.99-32a-bfs303.zip

It seems to work OK and my phone reports running CM 4.1.9999

But am I really? Or do I need a kernel that matches 4.1.9999 now?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Radix999:
I'm working on a new kernel port now and should have it for you guys soon.

Until then, using the existing kernel port will work just fine.

New kernel has some nice tweaks and BFS304 tho, so will be worth your while upgrading when it's built.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Radix999:
New kernel port is out for 4.1.9999 - see the first post for download location and md5sum!

After your comments I've decided to include AudioPara4.csv to my port file, however I'm going to leave lights.msm7k.so out.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] awtryau89:
Rad, pardon my ignorance but what do these two files accomplish. I think lights gives you the trackball light??? What does audio do? TIA.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Radix999:
AudioPara4.csv improves call volume and clarity (for the other end, no real change for your end). Without it you can appear soft at the other end.

lights.msm7k.so is supposedly to make the trackball glow - but then mine glows without it and I don't know whether there's any official source for this file so I don't want to include it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] setupr:
Thank you for your quick job. I am on them, cm4.1.9999 and your port now. They are working fine. :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] awtryau89:
Thanks for the answers. I just flashed and lost all my ringtones/notifications again. I use Brian's file from the old thread. I am guessing this will have to be reapplied each update?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] str4vag:
Thanks Rad. You rock for giving the port file so quick to us.

and also thanks for including the AudioPara4.csv. quite important for me, as i end up shouting to the phone while on calls since they can't hear me. Used to readd them manually. now no more thanks to you.

Yeah, I have been flashing the audio/notification update zip from Brian's original thread since going from 4.0.4 to 4.1.6. Just an additional flash before I reboot when i update.

One other thing, anyone experiancing a quick drain of the battery? I have been off my charger for around 3 hours (maybe 4), my battery is down to 56%. Not really sure if its because of the flashing I did when updating or its something else.

battery usage is telling me 48% is down to the cell standy.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Radix999:
Hmm.. my guess is that the ringtone package puts them in /system somewhere and they get wiped when you update.

Best option is to extract those ringtones you actually want and put them in a /sdcard/media/audio/notifications/ or /sdcard/media/audio/ringtones/ folder - that's what I've done and they always seem to appear just fine and never get wiped no matter what rom I install.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Radix999:
Hmm.. not here...3hrs 28mins since unplugged and I'm 88% (with wifi on all the time and around 40 minutes of ebook reading)

I did my rom install while connected tho - rom installs are always fairly intensive and do drain the battery quite a lot - so I suspect this is what's done it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alvinistic:
Wow that is fast! Thanks!

must be it. i charged a little after that to bring it back to around 80%. now its been good. only a 20% drain since then. much much better. must have been the flashing process.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] awtryau89:
Well, I just noticed this as well. I am still running .999. If you updated last night before Rad fixed this, you need to grab .9999.

I believe it's ok to include the lights.msm7k.so. See the discussion here with a reply from one of the google developers who says it's in the git tree:

Help required

Hi,

I'm trying to upgrade my 32A to the CyanogenMod but I've struck a problem:

1) I downloaded the 3 zips

2) Booted using END + HOME

3) Pressed END + CALL + HOME to get to the menu

4) selected "wipe data/factory reset" and it did its thing.

5) ???

The only options I have are:

reboot system now

apply sdcard:update.zip

wipe data/factory reset

I cannot find a way to select the zip file to apply.

I'm on a 32A HTC Magic/Sapphire.

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Radix999:
Heh.. You may want to consider upgrading your recovery rom - it's very basic and only has the update.zip option. While you can work with this it'll be very awkward.

Go here and grab a better one:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=530492

Once you've upgraded your recovery rom, you'll get the UPDATE: choose zip option.

Without it you'll need a card reader or some way of renaming the zip files to update.zip after you've applied each one.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Radix999:
Okey.. sounds like Compcache is causing a few issues for some people - whether this affects us much I don't know - but I've rolled cyanogen's fix with our kernel and you guys may want to check out:

http://grenslivia.mine.nu/~riku/android/new-stuff.htm

I've built a new boot.img and repacked it using his updated ramdisk - Riku's linked that on his page.

I'd also recommend the userinit.sh fix as that will kill compcache. You guys don't need it and apparently it causes issues so it's worth doing - I do this myself each install.

There'll probably be a new rom out soon that will fix all this anyway, but if you're having problems then give it a try.

Issues for cyanogenmod ROMs:

http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/list
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alvinistic:
In 4.1.9xxx, I notice the animation for menu and popup window is a bit laggy. The new 4.1.9999 is still showing the same lagginess :(.

Try to press menu button or long press at home screen. The appearing animation is not as fluid as some other ROM. This also affects popup window and keyboard appearing animation.

It's a minor thing. But, just curious, anybody experiences the same thing or is it just me? Because I never see anyone complain about this even though it is quite obvious.

Thanks!

Same here but after removing compcache and from RA 1.2.3 recovery I removed devilvm-cache, fixed my ext-on-sdcard, packages uid's mismatches and booted it work much better, I dont know what exacly solved my problems but I think there is compcache.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alvinistic:
I have tried disabling compcache too. Looks like a little bit of improvement, but still not as fluid as it is supposed to be.

The funny thing is that the transition animation is VERY fluid. Only window animation is slow. The ROM itself is fast, so not sure what's causing the issue here.

Hello,

I own an HTC Magic 32A from Vodafone Portugal and it is running very well MyHero 2.6.29 but BT does not work.

I've tried this ROM and I had to temporarily get back to MyHero 2.6.29 for one reason only. I was not able to sync contacts and calendar with outlook using HTC Sync 2.0.4.

Is there anyway of getting this done?

Appart from this, it seems much faster than MyHero and original ROM.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Radix999:
No, like any other kernel port - it's specifically for one rom.

The boot.img file is made up of two parts - a kernel and a ramdisk.

Unfortunately the ramdisk is often different between roms - so the boot.img will need to be re-packed with the appropriate ramdisk for the rom you want to add it to.

Read up about unpacking and repacking roms sometime if you want to build your own kernel ports. It's actually not that hard, though the current tools do tend to require a linux box.
