Your phone will behave (i.e. go to a certain mode) depending on the key you hold while the screen is blank, before the first splash.

Say you reboot the phone from adb. You write "adb reboot", you get a message reboot returned, and shortly after that, your phone's screen will go blank. During this time, if you hold Home, you will go into recovery. If you hold Back, you will go into Fastboot.

There is no point in holding any keys once you see the first splash screen, so at that point you can let go :)

At least, this is how it works on Magic...

Im having issues with Apps2SD aswell, are you still having issues with your Apps2SD

When i install an app its taxing my Ext3 and internal.
[G1 Android Development] Ohsaka:
I can also confirm this behavior. I have seen it three times.

However, I assumed it was from using the "memory hack" that takes the gpu1 memory away. Were using the hack that gives you 108megs free memory?
[G1 Android Development] angryspoon:
Well after being told file was (bad) i deleted it and re-placed it on the SD and it worked. I am waiting on the phone. My screen is black with the white box and orange arrow going out to the phone laying by the box.

How long does this take? i have no status bar on it or anything just the orange arrow out of the box towards the phone and it has been like this for a bit but I am not sure if something is wrong. Is this one of those things that can take 10minutes or should it be fast? Should i have a status bar as to the progress?
[G1 Android Development] angryspoon:
Ok if anyone has this problem I finally found out what was going on. After wiping and then flashing both .zip files I would do a reboot by holding Home and Back well guess what, that was the problem. After two failed attempts i simply went and used the reboot function on the menu, clicking with the scroll ball and BOOM it works. So if you have an issue with this do not hold home and back simply use the scroll ball to click on the reboot option on the menu.

Because you are using the old 328 version.The latest version of copilot

is fully compatible with donut.

[G1 Android Development] cal3thousand:
You will find the answer to your problems if you logcat when its rebooting.

Keep your phone plugged into your desktop,

do adb shell

then logcat

and just watch what is going on with your phone. At the very least you will gain an understanding off how much crap your phone is really doing.
[G1 Android Development] so142001:
I want a pony!
[G1 Android Development] skrki:
Hi,

The reboot is probably caused by kernel panic, so the answer is in /data/dontpanic/last_kmsg. While the logcat can give you the activity information that had caused a reboot, a much more informative dump is contained in the last_kmsg file. Open it as text and analyze the last bits of it. It doesn't hurt to delete it, and then reproduce the issue - you will get a smaller and a more accurate set of data.

It also may be useful to search the thread, since this has been discussed many times. Unfortunately, there is no universal solution to the problem. I did see that one of you is using lowmemkill to handle the processes. You may want to try disabling it. For what it's worth, I haven't had a single spontaneous reboot for the last couple of versions of the ROM, so in my opinion, it isn't a global issue.
[G1 Android Development] cal3thousand:

MMS issues

I have a g1 running cm 4.2.15.1 and I've been having issues receiving MMS messages, but can send them just fine (pictures, videos, etc) My notification led comes on and it shows "unknown mms received" but when i pull down the notification bar it disappears. I have no problems with SMS messages sending or receiving. If I remember right, I've been having issues with this since CM released their latest set of stable roms post Google hassle.

I couldn't find any way to disable the backlights for the front keys

i know its not a huge deal but it looks wierd when its dark with the light peeping out from under the case.

I have found ways to disable the slide out keyboard backlights but i don,t need that.

anyone know how to do this

thanks :)

[G1 Android Development] skesseks:
Now that you mention it, I did look at the last_kmsg and there was a mess of lines about the audio device being busy. That is why I looked at the sounds for notifications as a culprit.
[G1 Android Development] Booker-T:
2nd Partition cannot read randomly

Recently, when I restart my phone, the 2nd partition may not be read randomly and this will cause all the apps corrupted.

Even I reboot the phone, the apps cannot use normally, it will show FC for most of the apps I installed.

Does anyone experience the same situation?
[G1 Android Development] heyyyitsjordan:
the card must be going bad
[G1 Android Development] giantcrazy:
Searched through the threat to no avail - I'm also having the random music playing, picking up whenever I hook up to USB (or if I plug in the USB headphones), or when I receive an incoming message.

I'm running stock 15.1 with the regular boot image (seems like other instances were on the RAM hack). Any ideas? I'm at work and it's done it 5 times, killing the volume doesn't stop it from playing. I'm going to have to use another ROM if I can't solve this, and I'd rather not do that.
[G1 Android Development] stripwax:
I reckon it's trying to play a notification sound, and not finding them properly, so playing the next available media instead. = some music on your card. You probably either didn't install (correctly) the audio resources (see first post), or you don't have your notification sounds set to anything meaningful, or you need to rescan for media files on your g1.

[G1 Android Development] houseonfire:
Hey.. Whats the news on this?
[G1 Android Development] bunu:
I must say that your latest ROM for the g1/mt3g is the best donut ROM ever.

I tried:

1) Super D for about 2 months

2) Fasttest for about a week

3)Super CSDIV4 (or whatever it's called)

4) Dwang (stupid, buggy really outdated ROM)

5) And any other donut ROM that says is the "fastest"

But now I'm sticking with your latest. It is fast and really stable even with my 140 apps, NO ramhack, keeping 3-4 apps running in the background ALWAYS, and I play games on it all the time. It always runs smoothly and I love it.

Even if you did give up on the g1/mt3g, you left with a bang.
[G1 Android Development] bunu:
you could try fix_permissions (a.k.a the "fix apk uid mismatches" option in the latest amon ra recovery.) or your sd card could be going bad.
[G1 Android Development] jasonsplace:
Has anyone had a problem installing large applications? I am running the latest stable release with Apps2SD. I am using an 8GB Class 6 microSD and currently have 58MB internal memory free. Whenever I attempt to install an app over 10 or 11 MB from the market though, I get a Download Unsuccessful error. I looked in the log and it says: "Download Aborted - Not Enough Free Space In Internal Storage." I've researched the error online and have found it mentioned with other Roms but never with this one. They say it's because even though there is enough free space to install the app, the cache directory where the app is first downloaded to before installation isn't large enough. I have no idea how to go about fixing this though. Any ideas?
[G1 Android Development] mitch1974:
Try clearing the caches then installing them?

There are a couple of cache clearing apps available.
[G1 Android Development] jasonsplace:
I've already tried clearing the cache. The reason that most people have given for the problem is that the cache is put on it's own partition that doesn't have enough free space on it to allow for the download. If I knew how to change it, I wouldn't mind upping that partition to 100MB or so just to ensure that I don't have any more problems. I only use a small fraction of my 8GB card.
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
Yes, once. A reboot followed by a retry fixed it.

[G1 Android Development] jasonsplace:
I've rebooted dozens of times and retried a lot. Other than this one problem, everything is working great. Maybe it's time to wipe and reflash again though.

EDIT: I just wiped my phone and installed again from the base and I'm still having this problem. I tried to install 2 large apps before doing anything else and they still won't install. The 2 apps that I'm having trouble with are Guitar Hero and LDS Scriptures.
[G1 Android Development] jakijal:
i have guitar hero on mine. never had any problems with it.
[G1 Android Development] jasonsplace:
Did you install it before the update and then do a no wipe update or did you install it after you were on the current version. It looks like if the app was there before this last version then you can keep it, you just can't install new ones.
[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
The cache partition (mounted at /cache) is part of the internal storage. With stock SPL it's about 70MB. The problem is that DangerSPL uses half this space when repartitioning the guts of the phone and gives it to /system and /data. You can't change the size of /cache without changing the SPL, and it doesn't matter what size sdcard you have.

A couple of versions ago, CM started putting the dalvik-cache for system apps in /cache, which appears to take about 20MB.

So DangerSPL on the latest CM will have about 15MB free on /cache, and that fills up quick. Stock/Hard/Engy SPL will have 50MB free which should be plenty.

So, when you say "I've tried clearing the cache" are you talking about caches like 'market cache' and 'browser cache'? Because those live in /data and have nothing to do with /cache. Try this from a su'd terminal emu/connectbot/adbshell/etc:

cd /cache

ls

rm *

rm -r [directory]

where 'directory' is everything except dalvik-cache, lost+found, and recovery.

then try downloading/installing your app again.
[G1 Android Development] jakijal:
alright, i dunno if you've already tried what PsychoI3oy suggested you 2 do, but what u had said bout me having 4.2.14 with the app, i think your right. but then again, i know i had 2 install things over and over again. i rooted my phone not 2 long ago so im still kinda new 2 these things.

but... i am on 4.2.15 right now. so i made a backup of my rom (just in case i wound up like you) and uninstalled the gh app. i rebooted my phone without wiping tho, and tried 2 install it back on. it worked.

so dunno what the problem might be. and i have the danger spl. so dont really know what 2 tell you...
[G1 Android Development] elbebo:
I tried these commands using Terminal Emulator but after clearing everything but the dalvik-cache, lost+found, and recovery directories It still doesn't leave enough space in /cache to download/install even a 6mb apk. It seems weird that some users with the Danger SPL have enough space and others don't though we're running the same Mods. Hope we can clear this one up soon.
[G1 Android Development] jasonsplace:
I was able to get my free space up to 10MB but that isn't near enough to install a 16 or 23mb app like the 2 that I am trying to install right now. I'm tempted to go back to the previous version to install these apps and then update. I really don't want to have to do that if I don't have to though since it's so much work.
[G1 Android Development] 2rz_taco_sr5:
hey guys i dont post much but ive been having a pretty annoying problem and have been searching for days and cant find an answer....

when i updated to the new .15.1 i wiped like recommended and formatted my ext3 just for the heck of it and reinstalled all my apps from the market... well now my phone freezes and i eventually get the option to wait or force close almost every time i send a text message... i hit wait and it instantly resumes working??? i tried rewiping and it still does it... im about to wipe and reinstall again but don't really have anyone to text this late so incase it doesn't work anyone have any ideas? its extremely annoying and im sorry if its been covered already. if it has i just cant find the right words to search and find it i guess... also im using backup for root to restore my texts is there any known problems with that? any help is seriously greatly appreciated!
[G1 Android Development] brady1uk:
I had similar issues when using Backup for Root. Have you got Amon Ra's recovery.

To solve problem once you have restored SMS using BackupForRoot, go into recovery and run "Other - Fix apk UID mismatch". That gets it all back and working again.

Hope that helps :)
[G1 Android Development] marsupial99:
Well, I think the real solution would be to replace dangerSPL with regular SPL. Is that possible? How would one go about it?
[G1 Android Development] jasonsplace:
That would definitely fix the problem if it were possible but there has to be another fix as well since this didn't start happening until 4.2.15. Something changed in that version that is using up more space on the cache partition. If that change could somehow be reverted back then the problem would be solved.
[G1 Android Development] marsupial99:
Somebody mentioned what happened few posts ago. Cyanogen decided to move dalvik cache under /cache which used up a lot of space. I think prior to 4.2.15 dalvik cache used to be under /data if I'm not mistaken. So there are really 2 possible solutions:

1) get rid of dangerSPL, or

2) move dalvik cache back to where it used to be

I don't know how to do either one of the above but I would definitely like to see a way out of this. Any help would be greatly appreciated from those in the know...

BTW, here is the line from Cyanogen's description of his 4.2.15.1 rom which is the cause of our problems:

* System dex cache moved to /cache to save 30mb on /data

So we get extra 30MB of space on /data but as a result don't have enough space in /cache to install large applications from Market. For example, after I cleaned up my cache I have slightly over 7MB of space left - I'm unable to download and install apps larger then 7MB as a result. I've been wondering why I can no longer dowload Copilot - it's a bit over 11MB. That explains it.
[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
Yeah thanks for clarifying that.
[G1 Android Development] stshannon:
Okay, so ive been debating on whether or not to root my wifes (and sons) G1.

Ive rooted my Nexus one with Cyanogen 5.0.5.3 (started at 5.0.4.1) and that wasn't too terribly difficult.

Here's my questions tho; my wife, isn't as geeky as i am, and really doesn't need root. But she complains that her phone is laggy/slow. Will this mod enhance speed like it did on my Nexus One? The improvements there were insane, was wondering if ill get similar improvements in speed etc as i did on my N1.

Also, my son's G1 i have data disabled, he can only use WiFi.... will this hinder the root process? Ive read through the walk-through (wiki) several times, and it points to another thread regarding this issue, but that thread (as a read-through) doesn't make a lot of sense to me. That thread looks like a whole other walk-through, and i need to pick through it for the info i need that pertains just to my installing of cyan? i dunno.

Anyways. LOVE Cyan on my nexus, would love to love it on my G1's as well. <smirk>

Thanks in advance.
[G1 Android Development] jo mateix:
No...

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Full_Update_Guide_-_G1/Dream_Firmware_to_CyanogenMod :

"Finish booting up your phone, and sign-in to your Google account. Follow this guide to sign-in via wifi if you don't have access to a 3G network."

That worked for me.
[G1 Android Development] kalin12351:
In my opinion yes. Of course I forgot even how a regular rom feels anyway for about a year now. Also it is a better rom than the default one.

You can also try the JIT enabled Dalvik to further improve the rom. There's even a simple to install zip for it here:

About the data thing, I don't know what you read.
[G1 Android Development] stshannon:
Thank you.... another question, regarding this walkthrough (thanks in advanced, and pardon my noobishness)

-------------------------

"2. Now you need to set up Android Debug Bridge (ADB) which'll allow you to control your g1 phone console (something like command prompt - msdos) and have root access to it as well

3. Assuming you're using windows.. Download this Windows USB driver. Extract. Mac users don't need to do anything.. For Linux users you might want to go to the wiki..

4. Then.. Download this small zip (for windows). If you're on other platforms then download the Android SDK. Unzip the files to a folder and add its location to the PATH environment variable. "

--------------------------

Do i still need to do this if i already have ADB working from when i rooted my Nexus One, or are there other drivers etc it needs to work with/on the G1?
[G1 Android Development] :
It looks like new cyano roms for G1 are becoming extinct. His focus is now on the N1, which basically killed any new developments for this rom. Of course the latest rom is a great one, kudos to cyano, but if I was after a stable rom, I would get an iphone! I am after an even-changing unstable rom that will satisfy my betatester's hunger:rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] damngood98:
then maybe try one of the eclair roms. plenty o' beta for ya there. :D
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
Well there are other ways.. but if you find your cache lacking here is one solution:

Requirements:

A) using apps2sd (otherwise this won't change anything)

B) CM 4.2.15.1 (may work on other versions but also may crash)

C) JIT not installed (there will be a conflict if you want jit see end note)

Method

Update apps2SD to push /cache/dalvik-cache to sd along with /data/dalvik-cache

Installation

0) if you wish to be able to roll back nandroid backups are useful..

1) Download '04apps2sd.txt' (attached)

2) from a console run the following adb commands

adb remount
adb push 04apps2sd.txt /system/etc/init.d/04apps2sd
adb shell chmod 755 /system/etc/init.d/04apps2sd
adb shell chown root:shell /system/etc/init.d/04apps2sd
adb shell sync
adb reboot

when the system finnishes rebooting if apps2sd is enabled cache will have more free space.

Note on JIT:

after doing this if you wish to try JIT (seems stable to me) you can install as per the main post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5704139&postcount=1

The update zip files may cause files to move around conflicting with the apps2sd change... (also JIT will likely fail if you stop using apps2sd.. just FYI)
[G1 Android Development] toby4059:
this caused my Market to stop working on Super D
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
:confused:

Did Super-D also move dalvik-cache to the /cache partition? All my change does is bind /cache/dalvik-cache to the sdcard.. it ought to be very transparent..

but as we are on the CyanogenMod thread you will excuse me for not testing in Super-D

Hello, when planning to release version cyanogenmod 4.2.16? Thanks
[G1 Android Development] jo mateix:
I think your drivers are OK.
[G1 Android Development] zim2dive:
In a nutshell, what stable feature out there do you think Cyanogen should be adding to what is already an awesome ROM?

I'm fairly new to Android, but my impression is that Cyanogen will make a new release only when there is a reason to make a new release. And for now the best next reason is probably graphics drivers for Android 2.x... which are not available yet.
