My SMS Backup app went borken after I updated. Other then that, the ROM works flawlessly.
[G1 Android Development] gophergun:
EDIT: Never mind, made a phenomenally stupid mistake.
[G1 Android Development] pinetreehater:
Thanks bpmtri...significant improvement. Not as fast as no pictures...but significantly better. Is this the same adjusted contacts CM is including in his next release?

For those with acore closes...are you SURE you didn't install the contacts.apk with appsinstaller? That will do it...trust me.
[G1 Android Development] kkiran:
The wipe thing doesn't work. Gmail still force closes.. Now what?
[G1 Android Development] Jamison904:
Cyanogen had the advanced launcher included way back around 4.1ish. Can't remember if it was causing issue or if he took it out to save space because it is a stand alone app now. Either way I don't think it's coming back.
[G1 Android Development] Chahk:
It was a bit buggy. Cyanogen said he'd lend a hand to get it working well and then would consider merging it into CM. Unfortunately the C&D mess with Google happened shortly after.
[G1 Android Development] skrki:
Just reporting back, this userinit script works on 4.2.5. I use it only to enable linux swap and set swappiness. I don't know how it will work with compcache and whether it will collide with Cyanogen's CC switch in spare parts.
[G1 Android Development] AnGeL_WiT_SiNs:
app manager

is any one else experiencing force closes on app manager for 4.2.5??
[G1 Android Development] shovelhead83:
yes, alot of force closes. i left the rom for a while,i will try it again later.
[G1 Android Development] pershoot:
it works fine.
[G1 Android Development] AnGeL_WiT_SiNs:
yeah hopefully it gets fixes
[G1 Android Development] xtenpeben:
its working fine on my g1. haven't had any force closes. I've experienced more FCs in 4.2.4 than this 2.5
[G1 Android Development] Joe333x:
I fell asleep today and woke up to my G1 vibrating over and over with the screen lit up and the LED blinking but completely frozen. I had to do a battery pull and reboot. It was caused by receiving a text message. Same thing happened yesterday except it rebooted on its on when it happened before.
[G1 Android Development] sil3ncer7:
At least your getting txts... I flashed and now I dont get any receiving texts. I don't know what the issue is but I am going on day 2 ofter the 4.2.5 flash and I cant get text.

There was a brief hour window where I was able to send and receive after my phone blew up for like 15 min with texts.. But since then... Nothing!
[G1 Android Development] Palava:
same sort of strange things here. While in college my phone rang; nothing could be done to stop it. Had to pull the battery as well.

No other problems then 2 apps [app manager & cm updater frankly. Maybe a reinstall will help]

Blazin fast, nice looking, so good job.
[G1 Android Development] StaggerLee123:
dropped calls, unresponsive on answer, freezing

Jumped from 3.6.8.1 to the latest CM ROM. Never had any in call issues 'til I flashed this ROM.

Twice today calls dropped within the first twenty seconds, then when I returned the call I got plenty of popping and dropouts while on the call.

This is from my office, where I have five bars and no previous call quality issues.

Additionally,on one occasion the phone became more & more unresponsive, then the display blacked out, and the LED came on a steady blue. I couldn't wake the phone with the menu key, so I had to pull the battery, since the 3 finger salute didn't work either.

Anyone else have any of these things happen on this ROM?

Other than that, a mighty ROM indeed!
[G1 Android Development] thetanktheory:
screen lock issue

Hey folks, hope i'm posting in the right thread here but I have scoured these forums/google for an answer. It seems ever since i updated to 4.2.4 and then 4.2.5 that ANY time my screen locks (auto-lock, timeout or manual) it will close whatever program I happen to be using. This is especially irritating when trying to listen to music as it will just stop playing once the screen times out or i press the end button to lock it. I have tried playing with the settings inside spare parts, etc.

Also I can't seem to find anyone else that has had this trouble, to verify I reinstalled the official Android ROM and everything seemed to work fine. ANY help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
[G1 Android Development] meffertf:
Been keeping up with all the releases since 4.1.99, everything works fine for me on 4.2.5. No lockups, no freezes, no reboots. Every time a new stable appears, I

1. flash with ROM downloaded using CM Updater

2. reboot the phone

3. go to Terminal Emulator, run su, then sh /sdcard/fix_permissions.sh

4. reboot

Only things I changed from default was set Homescreen not in memory, and Compcache on.

Works great for me, lots of people I know bought 'droid based phones cause of the goodness I showed them because of the goodness of CyanogenMod :)

Hats off sir.

TMO G1

8gb Class 6

All the standard stuff downloadable from pg. 1 of this immensely overhuge thread :)
[G1 Android Development] cumi2k4:
having problem using 4.2.5 that it keeps rebooting every few minutes.

Suspected the wallswitch app (no problem with this app from previous builds) but then again what do i know, so here's the log (again, don't know jack about stuff like this so i just pasted everything).

http://pastebin.com/m3b8d51e4 (thanks to xidominicanoix for the useful site :D)

other than the above problem, the rom really great, faster than previous builds, kudos to cyan for the effort.
[G1 Android Development] terence_oh:
Went through the sequence you mentioned, no issue. My install procedure on post #5570 of this thread, if it helps.

For some reason, battery use is also much better on 4.2.5 - I notice the battery level is reduced much more slowly over the 2 charge cycles since I have updated to 4.2.5.
[G1 Android Development] Rescue7:
I'm having an issue where the screen times out every couple seconds although I have it set to 1 min, and even on manual the screen just locks itself.
[G1 Android Development] air2k57:
Quick question, I love the rom but one thing is kind of irritating, didn't find it on Dwang's and the official rom, was wondering if there was a way to fix it.

Lets say I am browsing the web and I have a page loaded. If I get a text and jump to it to reply, or would switch apps for a bit and then go back to browser, the page reloads. I still see it loaded for few seconds, but it is being refreshed. Kind of annoying as sometimes I want to reply to a text message and jump back to the page I was on, without having have to reload it. Any way to change it?
[G1 Android Development] ToadFootNS:
i had that problem before, and thats the main reason why i rooted the fon in the first place. Phone is Tmobile from America and i use it in Serbia. I got the unlocking code from tmobil...I dont have that problem anymore, so i dont think its a rom problem...
[G1 Android Development] Beast11:
solid rom but i see major lag wen scrolling... mostly in contacts.apk. Also, i get random reboots wen opening camera app or camcorder app...
[G1 Android Development] javon27:
Love the new phone.apk!

I just received a call from a bill collector and decided to press menu while it was ringing. Can you guess what was there? the option to add the caller to the black list!!! this got me so excited, I just wanted to share with everyone.... teee heee hee...
[G1 Android Development] javon27:
yeah, if cyanogen can iron out those minor lags, this would be perfect... until eclair drops!
[G1 Android Development] papisky226:
why does cyanogen rom kill my battery so fast. out of all roms i have flashed this has been the most battery consuming. well at least me. is someone else having the same problem?
[G1 Android Development] javon27:
ADB not working in 4.2.5?

is it just me, or is adb not working? mind you, debugging is checked under settings and my phone has been connected to this computer for the last 5 minutes. I type "adb devices" but nothing shows up on the list. Funny thing is, I recall having adb hooked up when i was updating to this version

Edit: I've also searched this forum (with no results-- damn forum) and searched the bug tracker. Plus I read this forum on a daily basis
[G1 Android Development] TutoWRM:
No incoming calls

My internet icon, show activity all the time, and the incoming calls aren't getting, i have this problem before, when the phone had internet activity all the time and i didn't get the calls. :(
[G1 Android Development] terence_oh:
On the Home screen, Menu->Settings->About Phone->Battery Use

Tells you what's been using the battery.

Also, open up the Spare Parts app and look at Battery History. Make sure you look at all the usage categories, e.g CPU usage, Network usage, etc.
[G1 Android Development] thetanktheory:
I hate to harp on this but is there anyone out there that has had a similar problem as the one i mentioned earlier? am I maybe not posting in the right thread?
[G1 Android Development] vincom2:
Doesn't happen for me.
[G1 Android Development] sassyness77:
phone crashes with keyboard?

ive never experienced this before on any cy rom since 4.04 through all experimentals. but my screen keeps crashing when i open the keyboard on the home screen,android.process,acore, ive reflshed wiped everything even a new sd card, please help me, its starting to remind me of my old hero rom... :(
[G1 Android Development] kcm117:
try this

-Try enable then disable then re-enable Touch Input in the settings menu.

-Try delete cache and clear data from applications menu if possible.

-Or try google/find the touchinput.apk and reinstall it with ASTRO file manager.
[G1 Android Development] sassyness77:
well, im actually talking about the physical keyboard, sorry for not being as descriptive. its only on the home screen too, not while im in an app it just auto rotates like it should.
[G1 Android Development] stogchris81:
The constant browser reloads problem is happening to me too. The pages reload when returning to browser or even switching between windows. The pages reload, but the information is not refreshed. Very annoying.
[G1 Android Development] :
I love your ROM. Here are some things I noticed maybe change them in the long run, I realize your busy with more important things:

1.) Please put all the eclair icons in including the 2.0 market icon and the gmail icon.

2.) My gmail sync still seems broken.

3.) Spare parts go home then sleep is still broken it has been forever though, you said you fixed it and I don't think it is. Also maybe remove the compass option while your there since that doesn't even exist in google maps anymore from what I was told.

4.) I agree with the few people that said include advanced launcher functionality like being able to have more than 3 screens and select where the home screen is. Implement using your own stuff if you want, but it would be a nice feature.

Good Things:

1.) 4.2.5 is the fastest I've used so far.

2.) Eclair 2.0 theme is awesome.

3.) New animations are nice.

To those that had that market crashing problem I had that too. I had to wipe when switching to 4.2.4 the market was crashing and none of the Google apps worked right. I cleared all the Google data in applications, I ran fix permissions, I'm positive I installed it right too. Nothing worked. Sometimes you just have to do a wipe regardless. 2.4.5 didn't have any problems for me.
[G1 Android Development] MrUnknow:
I have force closes at starting appmanager

When there is more than one app beside appmanager installed it chrashs.

With 4.2.4 it's all fine!
[G1 Android Development] Jamison904:
Did you wipe coming from the hero Rom?
[G1 Android Development] UberYoshi:
Hats off

Really tight rom. It finally made me love my phone. Cyan your a pro.

The only problem I'm having so far is whenever I send a text and close my keyboard Phone shuts off. Its been pretty consistent lately.

But other then that I'm loving it =)
[G1 Android Development] 2girls1cup:
is anyone showing 4.2.4 as version in their settings--about section?

EDIT: nevermind, it only shows when I install the eclair theme.
[G1 Android Development] student.driver:
I noticed this with 4.2.4 and now this ROM. It appears to only happen after I use BT audio on it (and maybe tethering, not sure). When I don't use BT, the battery use is VERY light. However, it seems like there's something stuck "open" with the BT radio and the battery goes down quickly while the back of the "chin" on my G1 gets warm. Just a guess though.
[G1 Android Development] Jaysn:
Can someone take a look at this logcat and see why my second G1 won't boot with 4.2.5? I used the same download to flash them both, and on this one I'm getting stuck at the G1 screen. Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] mr.tenuki:
1st of all, Thanks for the ROM Cyanogen

Some issues I have:

All icons disappeared from desktop, and reappeared after reboot

self reboot

stuck in home screen

these happened once each, but this is 1st time I have any issues with any Cyanogen ROM, so...

MT3G, recovery - RA 1.3.2, perfect SPL 0006.
[G1 Android Development] nakeman:
i love this rom cyanogenmod 4.2.5.

But i have an issue of freezing phone at black screen with non-stop vibration.

luckly i was reported by our friends so that i can figure out what's happening at that moment: it seems due to the crash with an incoming call and a SMS popup by handcent simultaneously.

sorry for my poor english.
[G1 Android Development] jeremycool:
been getting quite a few fcs and random reboots recently :(
[G1 Android Development] jeremycool:
And any chance on getting the headset boost included in your awesome rom?
[G1 Android Development] driver33:
Hi, Great job Cyanogen, keep that way.

However I have a question : how can [I put Polish locale into your room ?

I dont have much problems using English but having phone in my native lang is much comfortable.
[G1 Android Development] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
It's the auto switch feature of the app causing the reboots. I have a couple posts a few pages back about my on going investigation and it has been concluded be me, others, and the man himself that that's whats causing it. He's already working on a fix for it.

The battery goes pretty quick for me as well, but I don't know if it's more the rom, or the apps I use and widgets that are running.
[G1 Android Development] t_rob76:
Blank screen

I followed the steps to the T, got all the way to the blue cyanogen screen, then the backlight was on, but it wouldnt startup. I couldnt find my nandroid recovery image, so i had to go to the 1.6 developers version to get my phone working again. any suggestions on how to get this to work?

Was able to get it to work, but only by flashing 4.2.4, then updating to 4.2.5. Dont know what happened, but it works now :)
[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
He can't, that'd require redistributing the google apps and dast ist verboten!

http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=646

It's in there, it's known, people have ideas. Nobody has a solution or a definite idea what's (not) happening.

This is far more efficient, it goes home and sleeps with one press of the red button. http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=272 See? It's fixed. Says so right there.

Advanced launcher was included at one point during the 3.9s and was found to not only take up more memory (twice as much?) but made debugging other issues harder. Those that want it shouldn't have any problems loading it, though. Also: "More than 3 screens" uh, stock is 5.

Google apps can always be replaced by re-flashing a 1.6 base (DRC83_rooted_base recommended) and then 4.2.x. No wipe necessary. Unless it is.

ETA: Not picking on razster here, he just had a nicely worded one-big-post that had a lot of issues that I feel need explaining. Hopefully some percent of people here will see these explanations and stop posting the same things over and over again.

ETA2: Who the heck am I kidding, of course people are going to be posting the same things over and over again.
[G1 Android Development] Boonyard:
It's doing my head in as well Psycho!

For the person who posted a little way up about no other languages for the 100+ time, Cyanogen knows about this issue and it will be fixed in the next release.

I have no interest in other languages but because i'm not a lazy %$£****£ i've read the thread and therefore know this!:D
[G1 Android Development] :
^^^

Most of that wasn't same things over again. I read nearly the entire thread. I said not to include advanced launcher I said something else that allows that functionality.

You didn't mention anything about spare parts Google compass. And I preferred the home then sleep more then just everything in one for some reason. I didn't realize he fixed it by just having it all done at once though, since I was used to how it originally functioned.

The icon thing I understood but it still annoys me. I understand that they aren't packaged in the rom anymore.

No need to be so condescending :-). As long as it is posted in a well written manner we should be able to address issues, I'm sure other people have same questions.
[G1 Android Development] beatango2006:
yes I did a wipe, nothing happened, tried flashing it again, kept getting force closes on the google apps.

Reflashed Cyanogen 4.2.3.1 and its working fine, anything newer than that will not work on my phone I dont know what the problem is.
[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
Alrighty, I misread that in your post, but having read the entire thread I'm sure you can understand the confusion

spare parts/compass has been a non-issue for a long time. I don't see why it couldn't be taken out. Didn't seem like the important part of the idea to me.

As for home->sleep, yeah, I used to use that all the time (been used to Motorola's way of doing it for too long). The whole 'fixed' thing was really tongue in cheek. See Steve (cyanogen)'s last post there. Getting it the way we want it would take serious hackage that he doesn't feel like doing. I'm not sure why "fixed" was his tag of choice (WontFix seems more appropriate).

I didn't think I was being condescending, and like I edited to add, I wasn't picking on you but used your well worded post as a starting point to answer frequently asked questions.

I'd apologize if I offended but I just read your PM. Real mature.
[G1 Android Development] genome2:
folk'll pobably think me crazy for this question but.... cant it be changed to have jus 1 home sreen? (its all i use... yes i'm serious!)
[G1 Android Development] Draxter:
Genome: use advanced launcher.

oh come on when will you finally add HSDPA reception!? the default vodafone stock rom had it :| I really need that...
[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
You have HSDPA if the phone and service are capable of it. It just shows as "3g" because that's all the stock icons include.

[G1 Android Development] MikLSP:
I have the same problem, my camera will not even open.

Camcorder will open but only records for 1 second. If I try to switch from Camcorder to Camera it closes again.

Is there any way to fix this?

Cheers,

[G1 Android Development] PsychoI3oy:
Sounds similar to this http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=427 but if you're in the UK I assume you're using English.

Got a logcat of the crash?

SMS BACKUP doesn't work with 4.2.5

Same issue here with SMS Backup... I do have BACK UP FOR ROOT USERS in case of situations like this.. it has a feature to back up your SMS onto ur SD card...

ALSO... has anyone noticed or tried to change their wallpaper??? It wont let me do it... I go thru the steps but when I exit out... the green droid on the skateboard is still there.
[G1 Android Development] secure_6:
This issue has been asked and answered here in this thread... something about clearing the data... settings...manage apps... clear data for each of those apps... I think... search this thread to b sure.

[G1 Android Development] Chosen_on184:
i don't know people been complaining about this wallpaper thing and it works fine for me

I have background apk where you can choose from hundreds of wallpapers and that works fine as well as i can use the wallpapers that come with the build and they all work

mystified by them not working with other people phones idk
[G1 Android Development] nmesisca:
mystified or not Cyano said in a twitter post that automatic wallpaper change break his ROM. might be in the issue tracker as well but havent checked.

infact every time my app tries to swap wallpaper the phone reboots.
[G1 Android Development] mianosm:
I did a search for exchange, and it looks like the last mention was in October.

Since the 4.2.5 it looks like exchange sync is continually throwing some type of exception...

hey guys...

i got a lil big problem. i get forceclose/FC everytime i close an app with the back button. that sucks and i dont know why. the desktop restarts and it takes a few seconds till it works fine. and the next time i close an app with the back button again FC. i have a log so if anybody could help me, i would be very thankful. LOG uploaded
[G1 Android Development] grahamwell:
Having a bad time with 4.2.5 - can't get back.

Hi. I installed 4.2.5 yesterday on my 16G card. No problems, happy. This morning everything crashed. Couldn't recover, couldn't restore or re-flash. G1 was booting to a blank screen with faint backlight. Can't read the card properly either - seems to be corrupt. I have another ROM on a backup card with nandroid backup. Tried wiping and nandroid restoring (emonther's 1.6) - not happy. Says low on space and FCs constantly. How can I get back to where I was yesterday? Grateful for any help, I'm a bit freaked out.
[G1 Android Development] Babaki:
yup, same thing. it sends 1 message and then crashes.
[G1 Android Development] Kholdstare79:
This may seem redundant to rant about I'm sure it'll be considered that way as well. I started on 4.2.3.1<4.2.4<4.2.5 and then I saw my co-workers myt3g which was rooted as well. He uses Cyanogens rom thats when i noticed his phone has icon for market,Gmail,IM from Eclair. I was like what version are you running then he told me 4.2.5 and I was like how come I don't have that on my g1?? I replied back telling him that I've been using Cyan 4.2.3.1 rom when re-rooted again(don't ask why I unrooted it). So how come his shows the new icon for those 3 and i have the same old icons?
[G1 Android Development] bkmo:
Ask him what themes he has installed. Some have themed google apps in them.
[G1 Android Development] Kholdstare79:
Its just vanilla Cyanogen 4.2.5 b/c 4.24 implemented the Icons from Eclair.
[G1 Android Development] Talderon:
Hey all,

Was on Cyanogen with my G1 (still am) but when I got the MyTouch 3G, I went Hero... however... am now back to Cyanogen and loving it! :D

Just updated to the new version and will see how things go. :D

Thanks again Cyan!
[G1 Android Development] hachigoro:
Great!

Thanks Cyanogen! I have installed 4.2.5 on my Magic and it works like a charm. Fast, stable and beautiful. :)
