Gyd,

I'm not positive, but in the boot.img's init.sapphire.rc script, I remember seeing a line commented out about the trackball. If you're comfortable in looking @ it, I'd recommend it. I just noticed the difference compared to my magic build's init.sapphire.rc. Hope that helps you out. I'm using a G1.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Boonyard:
Force closes constantly for me, unusable.

How can it have so many problems if it's the official release?!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eugene373:
Everyone is Just a bug reporter now Days .... lol. :eek:

lol, anyways, I gave people an Option. I don't Have a 32a Phone so??? Sorry.

Looks Like Most of the Problem is Voda Phone;s so far. ? um, wonder why?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eugene373:
found the problem with SU, I think. lol Wrong File
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dereck66:
FC

Emm... strange...

I am too on Vodafone... and I've got two FCs and stuck at boot loop!

I have also changed SPL from 1.33.2005 to 1.33.2009 ... same problem
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] WebghostDK:
Im on UK vodafone and everything is working just perfect eugene.

I formated and wiped data, then i did 2 partitions on sd:

fat32 and linux-swap

Works like a charm, could use Wifi tho
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sardoid:
Back from spl 2010 to 2009 not help:(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hughyb:
How different in spec are the mytouch 3g and the vodafone 32b ?

have flashed but getting the same fc's as the others.

good work though eugene.

Im sure it wont be long before we have something more generic and working
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Xenn0X:
will try on my voda magic. see if i get fc error.

only using fat32 partition, no ext3 or swap
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dereck66:
Eugene, would it be the problem if we have our sd card in 3 partition? e.g. fat32 + ext3 + linux swap.

Maybe for this rom to work correctly, we must only have two partition (fat 32 + linux-swap)? If so how do I remove the ext3 partition without reformat the whole sd card?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sardoid:
Maybe u right:)I have 3 partitions to...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Amon_RA:
Hero?

Why is it called Hero3G? I don't see the link with the Hero device. :confused:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Boonyard:
And me! We could be on to something!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Xenn0X:
installed B version rom with only fat32 partition on sd and boots up to setup. configuring now.

after config it rebooted at htc logo.

reboots and works sweet.! only fat32 on sd and works!:)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] WebghostDK:
Well i also tried with just fat32 and that went too, not fast like fat32 + linux-swap.

So this sd partition worked for me:

(1)fat32

(1)fat32 + (3)linux-swap

No 2. partition, but you must create 3 partitions and then delete partition 2 (ext2/3/4)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Boonyard:
How do you do that?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Iman07:
im not sure how he would incorporate it and make it look slick! i miss the curvature of the old dock tho. i had the perfect theme, the stock nav bar with my planet background, super SEXY!! i mean i guess i could use some kinda home replacement but thats what was so nice about Sense UI, it just looked so sexy that you didnt need anything else. an option would be nice tho. i understand that each cook wants to give it their own personal touches...but i REALLY REALLY miss my navy! lol
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KingJaffe:
i understand your point. he needs to fix wallpapers. a few of them look like crap
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] schtuka:
It makes it different from other Magic Sense ROMs. I can dig the need to be different. That's part of creativity, but it also requires a step up in design and arts. Then again, it is always easy to criticize other ppl work.

Edit: Oh, just to be clear. I am a designer with 22 years of exp.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] FirstNoobToBrickHisPhone:
I was laughing at the bubble wallpaper when I booted up.

Looked like some wall you get when you first boot up Windows 95.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KingJaffe:
we are all laughing at ths rom ver. dont anyone forget that overall this is one of the top 2 roms. i like the dock change but a marker would improve upon it if he can make it slick. go for it eugene
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] schtuka:
Careful guys. Eugene has a temper and if you want him to support his work watch what you say. We already asked him not to abandon his work after some ppl were too needy and too demanding.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Iman07:
the worst thing is when someone misinterprets what one is saying. tho its "easy to criticize other ppl work" its comes with trying to be creative. you need to expect people to react and give feedback. not all will be good. in this case, it was a good effort but it just doesnt top the original design of the sense UI. but just because we dont like it doesnt mean he has to change it. we are just giving our opinion which i mentioned before is the purpose of these forums; to discuss opinions and share knowledge. ultimately it is eugenes choice, but im not gonna pretend i like something to please someone else. I do appreciate all his work but i think there should have been an option, just like with auto-prediction. so with that being said....EUGENE PLEASE PUT THE OLD NAVY BACK! lol :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Iman07:
criticism is one thing but insulting is another...i agree tho, tone it down a lil for all of our sakes lol
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] schtuka:
That is why you ask for second option w/o new nav bar. That's it. Obviously he likes his new navy. Fine by me, but stock version is a must for those who are not sharing his taste. Noone asking you to pretend, just be polite. Would that be too much to ask?

Edit: Anyway, that is why I have Bart. Few clicks and I am back to V1. or another ROM.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Iman07:
i hope your talking to the other guy cuz i didnt say anything impolite and if anything i backed u up about that guy needing to tone it down.

lets stay on topic now.....

we obviously dont all agree about the new navy so lets see what eugene has to say in response to our posts. hope its some good news lol.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hellboy5000:
Do you know why yahoo e-mail doesn't work with the hero software
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KingJaffe:
very true i like his work. i complain only about text sound issues. and wallpapers can be fixed and i like the new dock. Again Eugenes rom are in the top 2.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] schtuka:
Yes, I was addressing all. Yes, I agree. Lets wait and see Eugene's response. Meanwhile I already backed it up and switched to Rzr OptPrime for tomorrow meetings.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KingJaffe:
i like your point very much.its all feedback like you said and i miss auto-prediction :(. ill say it again Eugenes roms r great keep it up and port those other roms to 32a when u have time
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Iman07:
do you guys think its okay that i removed the ext2 partition on my MT3G. its primarily for G1 phones right? I heard it helps the G1 significantly but doesnt really do much for the Magics'. what i did was create a 1mb ext2 partition then delete it with adb so i got the maximum space my 8gb sd 6 class could offer. just want to make sure its okay cuz i see schtuka's sign says hes running 512mb ext2. opinions?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] schtuka:
It doesn't? Well, then just set it up in your Hero mail as a second account.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] schtuka:
I did remove it for Eugene first release, yes. But then I need it for Bart so I changed back to 3 partitions. I must say that it felt as if first release was running better without ext3.

As for 512, well it was automatic. I don't mind on 8gb card.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eugene373:
New Nav Bar is Staying, But I'll Make an Update for those wishing to Have it Back. Nav is Looking pretty sweet for my Taste, Made alot of edit on it, you guys got the Rough ( New Nav ). Feedback is always welcome, just keep it Tone down though, I like doing this, but some can ruin it for all.

Temper? Me? Yes I do, Sorry I guess it's the Irish in me. :D

I'll Have V2 Took down once I get V2r1 uploaded.

lol, oh and the locatable is fixed for those that got lost on the 7 screens, ololololololo <-
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Iman07:
the king has spoken! hear hear!!

edit:

i do have a suggestion eugene. what you think about having the notification pull down menu TRANSPARENT instead of just white! i think i saw it on maxisma's ROM and it looks totally badass. i hope u consider it. it honestly would look very cool! unless it will cause some kinda weird slow-downs to render the transparency but i dunno much about that to assume anything. just my 2 cents.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eugene373:
I would If I knew what img it was :confused:

Found it :D Changing it now
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] chucky80:
all I can say is thanks for all your work Eugene. This Rom is really fast.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Iman07:
YOU ROCK!!! :cool:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KingJaffe:
small request Eugene , can u please put back auto-predict? if u took out to speed up then ok. but i like the new nav and oh wallpapers need to be fixed. some are very choopy. oh and do u mind sexing up the dialer?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eugene373:
Wallpapers already Fixed.

Auto-predict does slow it Down.

Want Twisted Black Dialer?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sardoid:
Yes,please:)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KingJaffe:
yes that dialer is nice. if u can make it better pls do so. and when will new update be uploaded with wallpaper fix?

edit: im still new to roms but is there a way to switch between diff roms without wipe and flashing? if so how is it done?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Iman07:
anyone have a screenshot of this "twisted dialer" business? i hope its good!

edit:

please dont remove the planets wallpaper...that ones my favorite :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eugene373:
Going with the ophone. It match the new nav really well
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KingJaffe:
whats eta on optimized keyboard?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eugene373:
Yes, it's staying in the rom, the place i got it from has removed it. it's my fav as well

It's loaded already
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KingJaffe:
whats optimized about it?

and i cant wait to see blueberry on this with the new dock :D. ill dream about that tonite
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eugene373:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KingJaffe:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eugene373:
No I would have Labeled it if so.

Still Tweaking things before I do Color.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Michaelr219:
sweet, thanks for the quick reply... cant wait to see it!

ps. do you have the optimized contacts widget? or have access to it?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eugene373:
When people say Optimize.... They Normally mean File shrinking, Nothing is truly Optimized.

But No, I don't have it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Armadillo123:
Hi everyone.

First post here. I'm a noob. Proper noob actually. My Magic still haven't arrived :D Should with a bit of luck be with me within a couple of hours. It's on Vodafone in UK so I presume it's the 32B model.

I've just downloaded the SuperMagicv2r1.zip and I'm very excited about it, despite not having tried it yet. :) I think I've got my head around the whole flashing rom thing, but one thing I can seem to figure is the "96MB / 128MB Swap is needed for this rom." mentioned in the first post as a requirement. Is that sort of a form of partitioning of the micro sd card? Not sure how to do that, neither am I sure about root.

Any pointers would be appreciated. And thumbs up to Eugene for his efforts, which I'm sure are top notch (once I've tried the ROM).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bunglehaze:
armadillo, read through this forum regarding rooting the magic. and yes you have the 32b with a UK vodafone.

For the swap you need to partition your sd card - usually use something like gparted (if you are on linux it is installable if you are on windows download the ubuntu live cd, reboot your pc and do it from there)

As for ROM's, stick with this one, for starters it comes with the APN details so you dont have to input those yourself, its fast and pretty much stable so you can learn about the ROM as you go.

leigh
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bunglehaze:
Eugene...

LOVE the new nav bar. Sets your rom apart from all the others and fits really well with the device. Now stop fiddling :) I need to keep a rom on my phone for longer than 12 hours lol.

leigh :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bunglehaze:
Eugene...

LOVE the new nav bar. Sets your rom apart from all the others and fits really well with the device. Now stop fiddling :) I need to keep a rom on my phone for longer than 12 hours lol.

The only think I dont like is the green magic3g text on the pulldown of the notification bar, looks terrible and does not go with the rest of the theme.

Wallpapers al look good again, I dont know why they were pixellated in the last rom.

leigh :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eugene373:
it was a test run. color will be black glass once i finish it
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] lp1527:
Incredible work Eugene, THANKS!!!

Besides the black glass text on pull down bar, what can we expect on next update?

Very anxious :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eugene373:
I'm going to holf off on updates till i can get alot of things changed in it.:eek:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KingJaffe:
i flashed new rom and its nice :)

on the marker its a small dont not really helpful. can u make it a lil wider like stock sense ui?

can u remap the red end button to home then sleep? it will help with no in chat text notifications.

and i think im still having lost sound issues ill report on that later. it could be i just missed them.

the new dock is sexy and green writing not so good.

edit: that was fast eugene idk how to cook and idk what ur doing, but same text sound issues. first few texts i get sound then it drops even at main home screen and then i dont get notification badge on message icon app. so know i have to go in the app to see if i have a message. thats not good but everything else works as it should
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eugene373:
Last Time I say this. It''s the Kernel. You want stable, or Reboots.

I'll mess around with different Kernel for a Bit, Try install SMSCHOMP or Handcents, and configure it. Also the Led's do blink. I'm not to worried about this to fix it, or even try to fix it. I can See, so I know when I have a message. I can Revert Back to a few setting, though it might fix this issue. I'll have it in the next release by sunday night.

I'm not Going To Change the Screen Marker, If it's any bigger it will make everything look nasty

Download Spare Parts from Market, for the Red Button. It Does what your wanting & it free.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KingJaffe:
thats all fine but will a diff kernel help. and leds do not work at all at least not for messages that is. and u said that sound loss was fixed so i assumed u got it sorted out
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eugene373:
I never said sound lost was Fix, I fixed the Ringtone Lag on Calls.

Download Handcents or SMSchomp it's that easy.

I'll Look into a Different Build prop, might be the issue here.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KingJaffe:
this is y i thought u had it solved
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eugene373:
Testing a new Kernel.

Like I said, Wait. I'll have one up by Sunday.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KingJaffe:
no rush man. just want the best all around rom thats all. im using myhero kernel 2.26.9 bfs and it solved that issue
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eugene373:
Oh That's Right. Your on a 32a phone. can you Link the Boot.img & wlan.ko so I can update it for 32a user's
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KingJaffe:
if u can tell me how ill attempt to do it? do u want that boot.img & wlan.ko from myhero rom itself?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Talderon:
From your update.zip (or whatever ZIP file you used to flash) grab the boot.img file from the root and the wlan.ko from \systems\lib\modules of the zip.

Then, zip those up and upload them somewhere you can link too them for Eugene. :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Talderon:
Cool, downloaded and am re-flashing v2r1. I need to stop re-flashing so much... :P

Eugene, you are a magician man! Keep up the great work and let's hope things keep improving! :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KingJaffe:
ill add them now

the upload is failing. eugene if u dont mind inboxing a temp email address or something so i can email the files?

for eugene: http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/2781195/32a kernel files.zip
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] schtuka:
Hey Eugene,

Does the new nav bar still has blue high lights? Jest checkin. Did I get you right, you gonna have option with regular curved bar?

Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] schtuka:
I can upload it to rapidshare later tonite if some1 tell me what rom these files are from.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] _Ascetic:
Hey so I'm not clear on this, is 96 mb swap better or 128 swap?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KingJaffe:
i put them in a drop box for him. he just needs to click the link.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] htcclay:
Anyone having screen wake issues with the 31st (Today's release)?

If your having it you know what im talking about. The issue where when you wake the phone normally by pressing menu and the screen stays black except one line sometimes two are white.(Like an old TV)

Thanks

htcclay;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fuinhu:
I dont have any issue... try to wipe twice, remove the battery between the wipes and then flash... ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] htcclay:
Thank you for your quick reply!

I wish it were easy as wiping...

From what I understand its a kernel issue that only bothers certain phones.

Myself and a lot of people have this issue. Eugene's first few ROM did not evoke it as well well as Enom's Official Tmo releases do not cause it either. I could go on and on about which ROM do it and which don't...

Never the less.

If anyone is having this issue on the latest release please chime in.

Thanks:D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fuinhu:
well that sucks, this roms it's freaking fast
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Iman07:
if i was already on supermagic2 do i need to wipe to get supermagic2r1? if so, DAMMIT!!! lol
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Talderon:
Eugene will have to chime in here. I use a 128MB Swap just because that is what I am used to partitioning for ROM's and I have not had any issues with it. I would not suggest anything smaller than a 96MB Swap though.

Results may vary, so try it out. :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Talderon:
Yup... Full Wipe and re-load. :(

It's worth it though! :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Iman07:
im using 96mb swap and it seems to be working well. i dunno if 128mb will be any better. i guess i could try it since i have room to spare...8gb 6class card. but doesnt it just mean that you will be able to store more apps on the "virtual" memory which is good but also could be bad because when the system is trying to access this swap, it will have to go through a larger amount of data to access the info/app that you want which theoretically could slow down things and be counterintuitive. but what do i know right? lol

and thanks talderon, im flashing now!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Talderon:
Before I figured out this partitioning thing, I was using a 448MB Swap because I didn't really get how the numbers worked when using parted tool.

Yeah, once I decided to LOOK and SEE, I figured it out pretty quick and got my act together.

Anyway, I read around and it really is a LOT personal pref and just seeing what works best for you. I have had very good luck with 128MB Swap so that is what I am using.

Good luck and have fun! :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Iman07:
curious....whats your swappiness set to?

edit**

just updated to R1. very nice navy. i like it now. but could u remove the Magic3G when you bring down the notification bar...it looks kinda tacky or maybe this is just a rough edit, i guess if u clean it up and change the color to like a white or blue or something then it will look better. overall very nice! good job.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] verve50:
This rom is working perfect, fast and it looks awesome, 128mb swap 60 swappiness. I finally think i'll give my phone a rest from flashing for a while.Thanks Eugene for a great rom.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Talderon:
Going to show my noobness with Sapphire ROM's but I hear about setting Swappiness and am not sure how to do it. I just have the stock ROM working the way it is out of the box. :P
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tonnyb:
Eugene, you know i love youre Rom's but sorry i dont like the taskbar tekst! magic3g in green I DO LIKE the transparant taskbar! and the is no button in de task bar to delete al activitie/notification?!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dani146:
hi,

can anyone explain how to modify the Nav bar :)

I want to put back the arched one.

Maybe it is possible to incorporate the lock menu bar as in new android 2.0

This could be also cool.

Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tq745:
flashed supermagicv2.1,...runs great and really smooth. i pushed evil's HTC_IME.apk from his v3x build to enable auto-correct and it works flawlessly. a

however, i do have to agree that the new nav bar is kinda fugly. but i guess i can live with it to have a fully functional rom.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zole2112:
I love your rom Eugene, it' rocks. The only issue I have is the wifi will not work, I am running this on my G1, it that a problem unique to my G1 and is that always the case?

Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fishman0919:
SuperMagicv2r1 is working great. Not sure about the new Nav bar.

Kinda like the Org better.

I noticed if I try to update my Status for Facebook in "Contacts" I get a force close.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] FirstNoobToBrickHisPhone:
Same problem I had, but it's not an issue with his rom. Something to do with the kernel.

Hey if you can give us an option for the original nav bar, that would be great man. Keep it up though this rom's amazing.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] briggs81:
Latest is working nicely. Thanks.

Just curious where the keyboard came from though, looks different
