Problem with instructions on install

Ok, Decided to give the flash an upgrade, but having issues.

1. Downloaded

signed-dream_devphone_userdebug-ota-14721.zip

2. Tried to apply it and it says "No signature (5 files)

Ok, so how am I suppose to install the new 4.1.9999 ?

(Yes, needed IMG not OTA, but HTC file lists the OTA as recovery image, and I want system image) pfft, I hate this naming convention.

And no, guess I dont want the IMG files, I no longer have the boot up menu, I have the whitebox picture....

My god, I knew I shouldnt have tried these instructions. Now I have to figure out how to get my phone back into a usable state.
[G1 Android Development] djengizz:
Hmm, I themed 4.1.9999 already and never did a nandroid of a fresh install since I flashed right over 4.1.999 without a wipe. I guess I can replace the few apk's I themed with the originals from the ROM download.

Anyway starting my Linux box right now, I'll get back to you.
[G1 Android Development] ministersin:
Really just hoping to see if it was a known issue. As for help, here we go on the process:

I have flashed nearly every ROM since jf.

On this occasion I tried .999 and had bad luck with it (Horoscope and Flixter Movies didn't work, lags, etc.)

So I completely formatted SD card (8G class 4) and flashed enmothers set (rotted base and expansion pack 2.03)

That slowed and stopped showing the incoming call screen. So......

1) Wiped.

2) Repaired filesystem

3) Wiped.

4) Installed HTC Recovery image

5) Held home button during radio update

6) Applied .9999

7) Booted, scrolled and noticed a few missing apps (widgets mostly, like Weather clock and Pure Calendar).

8) Rebooted to see if Apps returned...no luck.

9) Recieved call from T-Mobile saying my bill was late :) was unable to Press One to let their collection robot scold me.

Oh, and I'm on a G1.

And I can use the hardware keyboard to dial numbers.
[G1 Android Development] djengizz:
I compared them and the only difference I can see is the BugReport.apk and all the Google framework apps. I used enomthers AOSP build as a base before flashing 4.1.99 so that makes sense since Cyanogen extracts these files.
[G1 Android Development] ddaanet:
That makes sense. At least we probably do not have some subtly corrupted .so files. That was my main worry. And I'm guessing that's the problem charlus is experiencing.
[G1 Android Development] jayb222:
Follow the first post in this thread again. Do everything it says. You have to download the ion rom first, then apply the .9999 update. Everything will run fine then.
[G1 Android Development] chilln73:
Is anyone having problems with custom userinit.sh and user.conf files?

I keep getting ...

=== CompCache status ===

CompCache version 0.6+

!!!ERROR Compcache disabled

Is this because the 4.1.9999 ROM comes with a new version of CompCache?
[G1 Android Development] bkmo:
I would suggest starting over, but this time format your ext partition as ext3 or ext4. You might get by with leaving apps on the sd, but I would suggest a clean formatted ext partition.
[G1 Android Development] bkmo:
Have you read any of this thread since 4.1.9999 was released last night? Try it you might find what you are looking for.
[G1 Android Development] Dreadix:
I am having an issue when i try to open up a video link from an email. I choose to open it with youtube and then my phone goes and seems to freeze, so i have to reboot it using the send/end/menu buttons...

anybody else having this issue?
[G1 Android Development] bkmo:
Cyanogens backup looks at md5sums of the library files. I would suggest flashing the files to your phone using the update found in my signature, then re-flash the rom without booting.. This may or may not help. At least you will have the proper files backed-up/restored during the cyanogen install.
[G1 Android Development] grivad:
Hate to bump, am I the only one having this bizarre issue??

To clarify, I'd add data to an app (e.g., Loot), and on reboot, the data was all gone and was back to the state it was in at the point I flashed the ROM initially. aTrackDog keeps showing old versions and keeps telling me that I need to update apps that are already updated.. etc.

I had run Backup for Root Users to restore data after flashing initially..

I have run fix_permissions 1.31 several times.. same issue.

I'm going to try fix_permissions from recovery, and may rebuild my phone entirely (format ext4, reinstall apps one-by-one) tonight after flashing 4.1.9999.

Anyone else have any other ideas or seen something similar?
[G1 Android Development] ddaanet:
What do you mean "Cyanogens backup looks at md5sums of the library files"? Which tool are you talking of?

The problem here is that the flashing process from zip appears to cause silent data corruption for some people. Flashing from another image does not fix the problem.

What's needed is a a tool that only reads the /system partition and report which files are different from what they should be, so the user can decide to ignore them (themes, keyboard layouts, etc.) or copy correct files through another medium (adb push, cp from sd).
[G1 Android Development] SxxxA:
I've seen something similar..to a certain extent.

First let me say I think this is entirely the fault of the Backup for root users. I really don't understand how SO many people rely on it, and I cannot believe that no one (here) will back this up.

I've used it on several occasions.

Each time it exhibited different behavior.

Never did it do it's job *properly*.

I've "recovered" my messages (txts) with it, only to see they are gone after a reboot. (this is where I think it's similar to your situation)

Same with APNs. (also similar)

Don't even get me started on apps, let alone data and settings... :P

Granted, it doesn't **** up all the time, but it really behaves differently every time i use it!

Suggestions..?

Try and back up your EXT data manually.. Like, copy it yourself, and paste it back from recovery once you flash. I think you will have to run fix_permissions...Obviously, next time!

For now, make sure all your apks are in /system/sd/app, and wipe.

Then use your apps for a while, fill their cache a little, and reboot to see if you're still having the problem.

Sorry, I have no solution to get back your current data.. this is all starting from scratch!

Good luck!

P.S. It's not something *I did* with the BFRU.. There isn't much you can do wrong. I do remember back a while ago, when I was just searching and reading XDA, that someone said you should not rely on this apps capabilities to restore your data properly...as it turns out, that was true. Sorry for the disappointment :(

Bug Report: Latest build (9999) Problem with APN. APN's now require MNC and MCC entries. Many providers just require the APN Name and thats it.

eg. For Indian carrier Idea Cellular it's

APN: internet

No other settings. The new release wont let me save without such settings.
[G1 Android Development] Shane2:
Actually it is related to the ROM because the rom uses Compcache by default and I want to switch it for Linux Swap. Never mind though, if that's as helpful as anyone wants to be I will get the answer elsewhere. Also I have already searched you should try reading all of the bits of my post, not just the bits that bring out the 'closet moderator'
[G1 Android Development] AustinKnight45:
You can use this rom without a ext partition but your right you cant restore your tons of apps without a ext partition. Ya just make a ext3 or 4 partition and put all your apps on it and when you got all the apps on it back it up with adb. It will make a folder called "sdbackup" on the heart of your C drive so copy the "sdbackup" folder and put it in you "C:\android-sdk-windows-1.5_r2\tools" so that you can use it when you restore your apps some other time. Hope this helps.
[G1 Android Development] nipper68:
Restore Apps?

I have an odd issue, as a result of a screw-up on my part.

I went through flashing the new ROM with no issues. I then upgraded my SD card partition from ext2 > ext3. I had copied my SD card data to my laptop. Unfortunately, in my haste, I failed to think it through and realize that the ext2 partition wasn't showing up, because I was using a windows machine, so I only copied the the windows partition. So, I lost all my Market apps.

I've tried to just download and reinstall them from Market, but Market shows them as installed, and when I open the apps entry in market, both the "open" and "uninstall" buttons are grayed out.

Since I've done that, a couple of apps have popped up that upgrades are available. If I download and install the upgrade, everything installs and runs perfectly -- and even my data is retained.

Other than waiting for an update on each app. is there any way to re-install these apps? I can't do it through Market, as it shows them as installed.

Any help would be appreciated.
[G1 Android Development] charlus:
Hi ddaanet,

thanks for the reply. I had already experienced the same kind of problem with SPF ROM. With version 1.x I had to manually replace a jar that was corrupted, With version 2.x I was never able to install, I was having SIGSEGV like the one I'm getting here.

It's interesting to see that I'm not the only one experiencing this kind of weird behavior !

I'll relfash 4.1.9999 once more and try to get the md5sum of my system files to see which one causes problem. Your idea is interesting ! I probably won't have time to do that before the end of the week though :(
[G1 Android Development] bkmo:
The message I replied to said that the install was done over Enomthers base. I stated that cyanogens installer in his new roms backs-up and restores files based on md5sum. I was thinking maybe the enomther files could be different. What YOU are saying is that this corruption only happens when installing this rom? Or does this happen with others?
[G1 Android Development] grivad:
I had this same issue when I first installed 4.1.99 (here).. I ended up having to delete the offending apps (there were a few, it seemed to be all apps that were .zip files) and their data, rewipe and flash, then reinstall from the Market. I haven't had the same issue with said apps since I did this, with multiple reflashes..

Thanks!!

Interesting you mention BFRU, cause I had the same hunch do to some really wacky behavior from using it (and sporadic, like you mention, making it hard to nail down whether BFRU was the root cause or not)... thanks for the tips and for basically confirming my suspicions!

One question though -- how do I backup data manually? Texts, app data, etc.. does MyBackupPro do a better job? I've used this in the past and it has been reliable, save for it restoring all my texts with the same "last updated" timestamp until I open and close each thread a couple times (then it sets the timestamp properly). Weird. Or Sprite Backup? I've read about it but haven't used it yet.

I'd prefer to backup manually, if I knew how. Any tips?
[G1 Android Development] nipper68:
Thanks, grivad.

Had you inadvertently wiped out your ext2/3 partition? Because I'm pretty sure that's what I did. All of the data is still there on the phone, but the .apks got wiped, because I was an idiot and tried to do things too quickly!

So (in layman's terms) what I think is happening is that Market is still seeing the data on the phone, thinks its still installed, but it can't find the .apk.
[G1 Android Development] Robert916:
Sorry to bump, But did anyone figure out how to fix this issue? One person said to wipe the SD, but i cant access the ext partition with the apps. Or at least i don't know how. i also can not download anything form the market cus of these force closes.
[G1 Android Development] EWitsJan:
You wasn't suppose to wipe. Now you got to start over. Wipe flash 1.6 Dream Devphone User debug then after you flash that flash 4.1.9999 don't reboot after you flash 1.6 Dream Devphone User debug!! after you flash 4.1.9999 reboot and it should go back to the recovery. after the recover reboot again and you should see 1 fc at the start. after that go to your terminal and type

su (enter)

click always allow!

then type fix_permissions then wait! wait for it to be fully done!

Reboot your phone your done :D
[G1 Android Development] grivad:
I hadn't, no... but what you mention makes sense. In my case, the apps that I had an issue with all had a .zip extension, then had a corresponding .apk in app-private. I don't know enough about how Android manages apps to know why the app data existed this way, but the apps that existed in that configuration were the only ones that had buttons greyed out -- almost as if Market saw the data/app, but didn't find the .apk (since it was a .zip), as you mention. Makes sense to me.

My thinking was that I wanted Market to reinitialize, or at least not know that the app had been installed, so I forcibly deleted the app manually (the .zip and the .apk in app-private, and anything related in data), rewiped/flashed with no restoration of the Market Data afterwards, then reinstalled the app through the Market. This wasn't a big deal for me as only a handful were affected (Lucid REM, Pandora, MyBackupPro, Phit Droid, Txtract Pro, Cab4Me, SmrtShoppingList, HandyCards, and MyCoupons).

This method worked for me -- since I've reinstalled, I haven't had an issue with the listed apps and greyed out buttons in Market.

Curious about APN List not updating from apns-conf.xml

Just upgraded to 4.1.9999 from 4.0.4 and all was as easy as promised. :)

One curiousity .. there is a very large list of APNs shown at /etc

/.apns-conf.xml . But I was surprised that Settings>Wireless>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names was empty and that Pressing "Reset to Default" does not repopulate the list of APN's from apns-conf.xml but instead rest to default clears out any manually set data

Is it supposed to update the list or is apns-conf.xml jsut there as a reference to allow manual keying in of data ? :confused:

[G1 Android Development] Robert916:
Ok, Thank you for the info.
[G1 Android Development] sleepykit:
@Robert916

I am entirely new at this so forgive me if this is unhelpful but I think maybe the part where you wiped before installing the latest ROM caused this. This is only a guess coming from someone who probably knows less about this than you do.

I did notice that when I updated my phone I flashed this update straight over 4.1.999 without wiping and it worked fine. It's also my understanding that the ROM grabs some applications from whatever's already installed (previous ROM) before flashing over it, so maybe a wipe gets rid of those apps. Not knowing which apps are considered too proprietary for cyanogenmod to use, it's just a guess...

Take it with several pounds of salt (a grain won't suffice).

Edit: Too little too late. Sorry...

Damaged SD card

I am having problem with Damaged SD card after I updated to 4.19999 like few other people here. I know they fixed it by reformatting and repartitioning. I would rather not do that if I don't have it. The failure seems to be from fsck_msdos check in the beginning after boot because of few damaged directories. Has any one here ran fsck_msdos -y to fix the problems. I don't want to do it until I back up the data on the card and I don't have the micro sd adaptor with me right now, since I can't mount it from the phone. I know the card and most of the data is fine because I can read the files from recovery.
[G1 Android Development] guinnes.s:
it does not want to uninstall:mad:
[G1 Android Development] knaries2000:
never mind. I ran it and it errors out "invalid arguement" hopefully I have better luck with fsck_msdos in linux.

Delete it from either /data/app or /system/app wherever it may be via adb shell.

adb remount

adb shell rm /system/app/HTC_IME.apk

adb shell rm /data/app/HTC_IME.apk

Then try installing it from appsinstaller or astro or something like that.

Just a thought, do you have touch input listed under settings >> applications>> manage applications? If so try to uninstall it there.

I have had the worst time going from .999 to.9999 I lost all my apps so I decicided to start from scratch with parted creating all 3 partitions dropping both files on my card went to recovery wiped repaired and flashed HTC let it do its thing and flashed .999 and get stuck at splash no matter where I wipe and how I go about it I just can't get it to flash I have wiped my phone so many times my A** hurts. So i thought I would reflash 4.0.4 and no problem I am using AMON-RA 1.2.3 recovery. Would this recovery cause this problem. I am no noob to flashing I have been with cyan since 3.6.5 and have the "danger SPL" flashed .999 on wifes phone no problem any Ideas what would cause this? I have went back and reread the thread and went through the simple page on install I have also been able to flash this on my buddies phone today. I just don't know where I am going wrong. just tried it again and no dice. Any help is appriciated!

You rock Cyanogen! Can someone point me to a good SD format thread, I'm having a lot of slowness & lag listening to music over a2dp, and I'm pretty sure it's because I haven't formatted my card since I set up the partitions. Songs are pausing & skipping, and it takes 2-3 minutes from the time one song ends to when the next one starts.
[G1 Android Development] AustinKnight45:
Reinstall the rom but don't wipe just install it over it, then download HTC IME off the very first page if you already haven't and put it on your sd card. Now go into Astro and tap on HTC_IME.apk >Uninstall then Reinstall it :)

Try this thread out >Upgrading to ext3/4 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=543985

or Ubuntu live cd is what I use
[G1 Android Development] bkmo:
We will have to wait and see what Cyanogen does. Hopefully he will automatically enable Linux swap if there is a swap partition available on the sdcard. You can now enable a Linux swap with a userinit.sh script. Search the forum for the userinit script thread as here is not the place to get in depth with swap issues.

Lag in Application Tray

Has anyone else noticed a slight lag or choppiness in the scrolling in the Application Tray?

This choppiness was not there in 4.04. It seems like it just doesn't scoll as smoothly as it used to. Sometimes there is a similar choppiness in the Settings as well.

It's not a problem per se but it is a slight annoyance.

Just wanted to see if anyone else has noticed this and has looked into it further or found something that might help.
[G1 Android Development] ddaanet:
I never installed Enomthers base, djengizz did. Also, CM (4.1.99) is the first custom ROM I have installed on my G1. So I do not have direct experience on whether this problem occurs with other ROMs. I can only say that:

4.1.99 installed fine here

4.1.999 installed a corrupt services.jar

4.1.9999 installed a corrupt framework.jar

Installing 4.1.9999 over 4.1.99 produces a slightly different error (different unpacked size, still for framework.jar) than installing 4.1.9999 over HTC's system.

However, djengizz reports he had this problems with other ROMs too:

Also, for the record, the recovery I use for flashing the CM zips is RA-1.2.3, and djengizz uses CM-1.4.

I also suspect charlus has another instance of the same problem, but that's just a hunch.
