4.2.1 issues

I'm having issues in v4.2.1.

Force closes on many applications (Pandora, dictionary app, etc.)

I tried re-generating the odex files with user.conf and fixing the permissions, but I still have random problems sometimes.

Worst part...

Last night my phone was running OK. I turned it off. Next day, it's stuck at the boot screen (SPL)
[G1 Android Development] bmj1086:
I put the old Launcher.apk on my sdcard. So if I need to I can put it back with no problems.
[G1 Android Development] bmj1086:
Did you wipe the ext partition when you installed this ROM?
[G1 Android Development] darkfluid:
Confirmed that google voice is not working for me either, I'm on a mt3g, tried unistall reinstall, made sure to set caller id. Did you guys wipe your sd card when flashing this rom? I'm going to have to revert to 4.0.4 for now, I can't live without google voice.
[G1 Android Development] QMAN101:
@Ochiro, when you wiped after flashing, you wiped the rom off your phone.

From V4.1.999 you need only boot into recovery, wipe your EXT2/3 and your dalvik cache, and then flash the 4.2.1 update from your SD card.

I added the wipe of ext partition and dalvik becuase this has prevented many problems for those that have intalled without issues.
[G1 Android Development] seaweeduk:
I'll give it a go in a minute just to check things don't work even better than they do currently it still seems like it's already being locked in memory currently though. Either that or this release is even better than I thought was :D
[G1 Android Development] swivel:
I've found that the 3rd party app, GV works just fine with the latest ROM. It will do the trick until Cyanogen can work out the issue with the official app.
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
I have said it on here before Devs tell you ohh you dont need to wipe but wiping is always the better safer way to go. So yes i wiped before i flashed this rom and I have not had any of the issues everybody else is having.

"To wipe or not to wipe that is the question. Whether tis to have a half working G1 or a Full working G1.... Just WIPE!!!!!!!!!!!!, For the love of God just WIPE!!!!!!!!!"
[G1 Android Development] Ochiro:
how would i go about wiping the ext partition and dalvik? haha sorry this is my first time rooting and putting in a rom

Google voice just updated to v 0.2.5 sometime between Oct 24 and Oct 26. It's the new version that gives people problems.

If you have a back up copy of Google voice (0.2) give that a shot. I bet it will work.
[G1 Android Development] darkfluid:
Just wiped, formated sd card and reflashed. First app installed from market was google voice and still not working. :(

Oh well, I'm sure it will get sorted out. Back to 4.0.4 for me.
[G1 Android Development] mfrey0118:
Hmm...getting random reboots and Touch Input won't install (yes, I tried with click)

Is there a thread that details exactly how I can access my error logs and find the right event that would detail these reboots? I've run logcat and log collector but they give me large amounts of data and I have no idea how to fish thru it all to find what I need...
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
So what is not working on it? do you open it and get a FC? or what? Just curious.
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
wow just looked at the new video for eclair, I cant wait to see what cyanogen will do with that.
[G1 Android Development] SpencerElliott:
Hey guys,

I just recently installed CM 4.2.1 and I'm loving it. The only problem I'm encountering is, sometimes the YouTube app locks up my phone and I'll have to remove the battery or wait for the phone to reset. I'm using a Roger's HTC Dream in Canada and it doesn't happen all the time so I'm just wondering if this is a known issue or something else. Thanks.

Spencer
[G1 Android Development] darkfluid:
Setup runs, app opens, on messages screen constantly shows to be downloading/updating, never happens. When I try to make a call, just pops me back to the screen asking to select make call with google voice or without.

I have confirmed it is only with the new gvoice app, I reverted to the previous version from my apk backup and it works fine with the previous gvoice apk....thanks chilln73. Too bad I already wiped my phone. Well....back to nandroid to restore.
[G1 Android Development] digitallysick:
I'm having an issue, sometimes people call and the ringtone doesn't sound (just the default one that came with this build) the screen stays black and it just vibrates

It just keeps vibrating and wont stop , like its stuck. I have to do a 3 finger reboot.
[G1 Android Development] hex706f726368:

Just finished update to 4.2.1

I keep getting force close's when trying to open SAM for the first time and it asks if i would like to update it.

After the initial loading catalog, a pop up New Version appears.

I click Yes to install new version of SAM.

Download started appears.

Then "The application Package Installer (process com.android.packageinstaller) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

Anyone have a fix for this? I have tried searching and I must be doing something wrong cause I am not pulling up any results.

Also had the Google Voice problems, went with the GV app instead. Works like a charm. I'd rather be without the official Google Voice than go back to an earlier ROM, this one is too smooth!

now that GV is working..

how about this issue; when i text a contact that is stored on my phone as well is gmail & gvoice (because it auto sync).. when i text it with the original messages app i can send the initial text. when i get a reply from my text and try to respond/reply to that text it drops the area code from my contact and i get this annoying text sayn invalid number please re-send using a valid 10 digit number or valid short code.

the only fix i know is to go to contacts and send a text from the contact and do that everytime i need to send a text or to manually type in the number. but even when i manually type in the number it associates the number with my contact and it still drops the area code when i reply next time,

any help with this would be supurb.. thanks/
[G1 Android Development] Ergo Orleans:
Pretty serious glitch here...I'm not saying it's a problem with the rom, but maybe somebody here can help me.

I followed all of your instructions to a T, and everything seemed to be going well until I rebooted the phone to start using it. My custom splash image does not show, but the screen goes a bit lighter gray so I know that it's on. Then the android logo flashes flawlessly.

Now here is where it gets weird. My screen goes crazy when I use it in portrait mode. Graphic lines and what I can only describe as visual tearing. Same thing when I go into recovery mode. But when I flip it to landscape, everything is peachy keen. If it helps I flashed from XROM, but I have installed the HTC recovery image previously for another version of Cyan.

Thanks for all the help, and keep making roms!
[G1 Android Development] SKGS:
Fixed

Fixed, Re-updated and this time it fixed the issue...
[G1 Android Development] seaweeduk:
Did you wipe before installing including formatting your ext partition? It's incredibly likely something from a previous rom has been left behind and is causing problems as I haven't seen a report similar to this yet.
[G1 Android Development] Ochiro:
i've changed the recovery to anons ra and did both wipes with the update install n it still doesn't work unless i'm supposed to wait over 20 mins stuck at my rogers screen? lol

wpa_supplicant.conf problems

I'm using custom wpa_supplicant.conf and tiwlan.ini in order to get adhoc working. It worked a couple of times but I can't get it to connect anymore. I tried all sorts of things - changing permissions, deleting wpa_supplicant.conf and keeping the custom one as *.bac, then turning wi-fi on and off and cat wpa_supplicant.bac > wpa_supplicant.conf but none works. What do you suggest? One suggestion - let's make that ad_hoc work without having to meddle with custom files, as they obviously have problems with permissions.

Maybe there is a way to do permissions in userinit.sh dunno...
[G1 Android Development] seaweeduk:
FLAC's being fixed next release, havent seen any reports of random reboots myself since BFS was dropped. I also haven't seen any wifi issues reported until your own. I'd advise you post an issue to the tracker if you have already tried all the obvious (wipe, format ext, re-flash the rom).
[G1 Android Development] schwiz:
the wifi problem came after I wiped, it was actually working fine before. So is the tracker you are talking about on the cyangenmod website?

Edit: haha nvm, rebooting my router fixed it :P I did still have a random reboot that corrupted my SD card but I don't have a log to share for it.

google voice/cyanogen bug

It seems the new google voice .25 is broken only on the latest cyanogen roms, I verified this by installing google voice on 3 other g1's with default settings, I wiped/reflashed 4.2.1, including wiping dvik ext2 swap and all partitions and google voice does not work correctly on 4.2.1, anyone have any ideas for a workaround?
[G1 Android Development] bluecluenj:
Downgrade to the previous version of Google Voice, works fine:

http://www.4shared.com/file/144104731/aec0af98/Google_Voice_02.html

(boy I sure hope this is a random glitch and not Google being "evil" to Cyanogen)
[G1 Android Development] PorchSong:
No work around, yet--and I have been trying all kinds of scenarios. GV still stuck at "downloading" in the app. And I can confirm as well--GV .25 works on standard phone, but not on latest 4.2.1 cyanogen ROM.

BTW, if you are looking for GV .2 (that still works on 4.2.1) I saved the apk before updating and can send that to you so you can have your GV back on your phone. PM me.

[G1 Android Development] naguz:
Some problems/"bugs" I believe I encountered.

-Even if partitions are FAT/ext4/swap physically on the disk, apps2sd does not work unless ext4 is the third partition in the partiotion table or something like that (eg. if ext4 partition does not show as sdX2, but instead sdX3, apps2sd will not work. This happens f.ex. if you delete the ext4 partition and make a new swap partition (t.ex when yo want a bigger one) and then create a new ext4.

-If you have more than one ext* partition, cyanogenmod apparently uses the last one. It used the ext at the end of the MC, instead of the ext4 which was the second partition. Note: this might not be true, it could be caused by the "bug" above. (ie. the ext2 was sdX2. I don't know.)
[G1 Android Development] metallicant:
New version for sure isn't working with 4.2.1. The UI won't download anything and the phone gets stuck trying to dial out using Google Voice. Version up above sure does work with 4.2.1 and it works flawlessly, and quick!!!

Thanks for posting the previous version
[G1 Android Development] designerfx:
time to backup your flash card apps /data somewhere and wipe. force closes are the first sign of the need for that. Sabrent has a $10 reader (external/usb) if you dont' have a way currently.

PS. 4.2.1 works beautifully for me, much faster than before. Even when enochX is added on top, it still runs noticably faster than 4.1.99xx

Issues with 4.2.1

I think i should tell cyan this for uses in how to fix it. I encountered a problem applying the mblended theme on 4.2.1 it worked just fine but after i change my theme to another one, the icon gets stuck into the mblended one.

After trying a couple times wiping the ext2/3/4 and flashing back to the original cyan 4.2.1 the icon never changed. I dunno if anyt of you guys experienced this problem. But thats not the point, arent the reflashes to the raio bad for your g1 right? Then why after reverting to 4.0.4 to unstuck the g1 sreen i had to reflash the recovery image that has the radio install in it in order to use 4.2.1 again? I thought i already flashed this radio why do it again? but i did just for the sake of using the whole procedure again and it work.

Im just concerned that this would hurt my radio and damage my phones ability to call and stuff. I know it worked but again the radio reflashing to the same one is written to be as bad as ever. DO i have to reflash the same radio to new updates? i think its a fair question there.
[G1 Android Development] Ergo Orleans:
I figure this is the right place, seeing as how the problem only arose once i flashed this ROM. Once again I'm not saying the ROM is at fault, but maybe Cyan or someone could suggest something.

Seisuke30

Im asuming your talking about the market app icon. You should always do a nandroid back up of your rom before you flash a theme... Meaning a fresh installed rom (cm4.2.1) in this case.. then when you change your theme just restore with nandroid and then like magic your back to stock cm ...:D From there flash you new theme...

Here's a weird error I just encountered..

I successfully updated my G1 to 4.2.1 the other day, and yesterday I pushed the userinit file to enable swap and my phone was flying with no probs.

Today I did the update to my wife's G1, pushed the userinit and her phone will randomly not boot past the G1 boot screen. If I take the sdcard out it will boot however.

So I wiped a couple of times with no difference and now while trying to get phone to boot I rebooted my G1, and guess what! My friggin G1 hangs on teh G1 screen now.

So I think it could be due to the userinit file and I need to know how to remove that file . Do i just use adb and type something like

adm rm /system/sd/userinit.sh?

Thanks for any advice
