You need to flash the Haykuro SPL.

[G1 Android Development] eugene373:
Hey Shafty, Just want to say thanks.

This Rom is Flying on my Phone, even no slow down aat the sync when I add the flip clock.

Thanks man, Let me know if you want to get together on a theme

Awesome work Dude :D
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
i cant wait for wifi working on BLUR...
[G1 Android Development] jonbrookings@gmail.com:
Thanks. I had lost root a while back and did not realize that I had lost the upgraded spl as well. Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] ccriffman:
Seeing as you have the WiFi working and it is just a matter of time before it is accessable from the UI, I have a small request. Is there alot of work involved in getting the audio/tactile feedback working? I am one of those that very much relies on the audible "click" when selecting something, and the audio tones emmitted from the keypad. - Chris
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
I didn't even realize it wasn't working but then again I don't use that. I can't promise I'll be able to look into that as most of my time is tied up with work(as in job). Once wifi is functional that likely will be the last big fix that can be done for Blur. Well there's still gps & vibrate left but gps isn't looking promising. Perhaps some more devs will chip in but next ROM for me after this will be a Donut ROM.

Camera will also be fixed soon.

So far I along with others have fixed:

BT

Gallery

Software GL

Stability

Wifi from cli

Prolly others but can't remember right now. Lotta work!
[G1 Android Development] IOmega666:
ohhh im waiting to see a full functional motoblur ui ROM, this is gonna be awesome . thx so much guys for fixing everything up .
[G1 Android Development] g1junky:
Xda devs are the best!!!
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Correction, my next ROM will be Eclair not Donut.

Must have been the "green" talkin. Some of ya'll will know what I mean, shhhh
[G1 Android Development] kingskidd268:
You been doing a great job on Blur. I now got a MT3G 32B, will this work for my phone? I am sorry this must been said alot. never mind.
[G1 Android Development] hyoungluv:
i love this rom its by far my favoriate :) but i also like the widgets that the hero rom has it would be really cool if we could some how only use those widgets with the motoblur rom :)
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
Unfortunately that won't be happening, for the same reason blur widgets won't work on hero- The widgets are tied to each other's closed-source frameworks
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
cant wait for a full version rom... i feel it coming in a few days... the anticipation
[G1 Android Development] JAWheat411:
quick question. I had the Blur on my G1. I got the Mytouch and gave the G1 to my wife. After I loaded the Blur on the Mytouch...it tells me my account it assigned to another phone and I need to call them. I obviously don't want to call them, lol, since it is a rom not a phone we are dealing with. Any ideas how to fix this. I couldn't get that message to go away.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Use a different e-mail address. You can't use the same account on two devices
[G1 Android Development] JAWheat411:
That sucks. Wonder if there is anyway around that. Would work better on the mytouch anyway.
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
I mentioned at that issue on the second post.

Note: If you are going to run motoblur on multiple devices (like two G1s or a G1 and a Cliq) do not sure the same account. Motorola doesn't like that.
[G1 Android Development] jaaronmoody:
way cool

my first chance to check this out since the bt was enabled and i'm liking it. not too slow on my g1, and I USED THE ORIGINAL INFO FROM MY FIRST MOTOBLUR LOGIN WHEN IT WAS IN PRE-RELEASE!!! no prob at all. GREAT WORK YALL!!! woohoo
[G1 Android Development] JAWheat411:
Here is a weird thing. I tried to login to my Blur account on Motorola's website and I couldn't. It said the username didn't exist. I went back and looked and I did get an e-mail from them when I created an account. I installed Blur on my new phone and re-registered and it worked perfect. Looks like my last account got deleted somehow and then I was able to create another one on a different phone using the same e-mail.
[G1 Android Development] TailsNeon556:
i had to recreate mine again as well.. im guessing some of the pre-release accounts got wiped

p.s. this motoblur rom coming along nicely :cool:
[G1 Android Development] JAWheat411:
It did work. But after restoring with backup for root. I got the message again about my account being registered on another phone. Doesn't make sense how I had to re-create the account and I still get the error.
[G1 Android Development] jonbrookings@gmail.com:
gps?

Does anybody know how difficult it will be to get gps going on the blur rom? Is this the next big project or are other issues takeing top concern?

i ask because if we can get the new google navigation on a blur rom that would be amazing. it would be better than the cliq
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Two things

GPS isn't looking very likely for Blur. Moto uses a proprietary driver.

Blur is based on 1.5 sdk while navigation is based on 2.0 but will work on 1.6. Hence, we can't get that on Blur. Moto has stated they will not upgrade Blur. They're focus is Eclair.
[G1 Android Development] newsoltsc:
This rom runs really quick!

Faster than the Hero rom I was using for sure!
[G1 Android Development] yeticomes:
But do you think that locations via Wireless will work for us?
[G1 Android Development] ComplexMinded:
I can confirm that it already works.. Used it the other day actually. It's not tht bad but when you play around with google navigation and other apps that utilize true GPS it almost seems not worth it. Shame..
[G1 Android Development] TailsNeon556:
might just want to re-flash and not use backup for root.. just use astro and re-install the apps manually... go to the backuproot folder >sd > app
[G1 Android Development] yeticomes:
is that true? That would be great!

Excuse me, but can you do me a favour please?

Can you tell me if this weather widget works now with blur?

http://www.androlib.com/android.application.org-koxx-forecast_weather-v2-jipz.aspx

Sounds ridiculous but it has so many options & skins that I do not want to miss it :-)

Would be great!
[G1 Android Development] jaaronmoody:
this rocks, and i just got my 2300mA batt for $20! FTW i wish 4 cam and vid, gps and wifi, which are all known bugs, but I love that the geniuses got the bt going. and BEGGARS CANT BE CHOOSERS!!
[G1 Android Development] eugene373:
Hey Shafty, If you want a Fast Fix for the installing Permission Problem.

Just add this into the Update-script

set_perm 0 0 04755 SYSTEM:bin/su

delete DATA:app

delete DATA:init.rc

delete DATA:local

delete DATA:dalvik-cache

copy_dir PACKAGE:data DATA:

[G1 Android Development] eugene373:
GPS

Is anyone else GPS working, gmaps didn't works before. Made a few edits to the System Libs, Now my Maps is working.

How Can I check to Make sure GPS is int. correctly and not getting Location over the Network?
[G1 Android Development] jaaronmoody:
turn off all locations but gps in the main setting
[G1 Android Development] eugene373:
okay thanks.

I was looking for a simple adb command, lol.

Yeah it's not working correctly, Simply turned off the wireless location like suggested & confirmed gps not working. thanks.
[G1 Android Development] problem1:
y does everybody act like this rom is soo much faster than the other blur roms... i got all the requirements for top speed and its still no where near impressive no disrespect to the dev at all i have jus lost hope in blur roms
[G1 Android Development] jaaronmoody:
no prob, have you passed this along to shafty and the others, maybe it'll work on my g1?
[G1 Android Development] eugene373:
Passed it along? Maps not working out of the Box? I hadn't Test it before.

More then happy to Post the Rom I edited with the Market install Fix and the Maps working over network.

I thought it already worked over network? If not, I can upload for everyone with the edits I made.

Um? Sorry, Typo. GPS isn't working, sorry about that.
[G1 Android Development] jaaronmoody:
in the first post he stated that the gps wasn't working, maybe i misunderstood?
[G1 Android Development] eugene373:
awe, Yeah I wasn't paying att. I Made a typo though.

Gps not working, but network location works. I thought you meant that even Network location didn't work, sorry about that.
[G1 Android Development] eugene373:
mainly swap Don't work. Or, Don't for me that is.
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
Swap works fine in this rom.
[G1 Android Development] eugene373:
For G1's? I have a mytouch 3g. Though honestly in terminal says 0 for swap.

Might be a MT3G Issue then, IDK. though, it is Fast for me.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Because the other Blur ROMs haven't taken the time to put the correct graphics libs & tweaks to optimize speed. Most of the other Blur ROMs have the stock libs & then tweaks. The system libraries in place on this ROM are not all the "default" Cliq libraries. Most have been replaced with G1/MT3G libraries as they should be to work with our devices & increase performance. Right now with Blur I believe we are not running hardware GL. Imagine when we can get that enabled!

Trust me, run some bench mark tests on multiple Blur ROMs and you'll see what everyone is talking about.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Do you have the Linux-swap partition?

Should be /dev/block/mmcblk0p3

Do an fdisk on your SDCARD to check

fdisk -l /dev/block/mmcblk0
[G1 Android Development] daddy4life83:
did you guys ever get the cam working?its not in the not working list on the front page?
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Camera is still in limbo. I got the preview pane working but upon taking a picture it crashes the app and throws a heap exception. I haven't had time to look at anything since last Friday. Been a busy week already.
[G1 Android Development] alexdancer2:
hey when r you gonna release the wifi files so that we can enable it?
[G1 Android Development] eugene373:
silly, Yes I have swap partition.

but, I trashed your rom I was editing. So I started fresh, added in the fix to the update-script to fix permission for install from the market.

Then, I downloaded terminal, now it says permissions denied.

lol idk what I did to screw that up.
[G1 Android Development] newsoltsc:
Well in my situation, I had this flashed on a 2gb class 4 sd card.

Now I have it on an 8gb class 6 sd card and it runs a LOT faster and smoother than it did on the old setup.

I havent tried to flash any of the other blur roms with the new setup.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Soon as I get a chance to sit and actually do some development. I'm doing software/web development 7 days a week practically between my day job and my IT Consulting Firm I own. Very hard to sit down and get time to play around on here. I'll try to get them sometime this week but can't promise anything. I have family flying in from all over the US this weekend so I'll be playing "host" and won't have a bunch of time.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
So it says permission denied when you try to install Terminal, or when you try to run it?

Check the perms on /data/data and make sure they are 0771 and owned by system.system . Same thing for /system/sd/app if you have a2sd or /data/app if you don't.
[G1 Android Development] eugene373:
Sorry for now being clear.

No, it says Permissions Denied in terminal when I type Free.
[G1 Android Development] lincore:
$adb shell free
total used free shared buffers
Mem: 97972 95392 2580 0 432
Swap: 94144 47808 46336

Swap works for me.
[G1 Android Development] eugene373:
lol, Thats all fine and dandy, Mine says Permissions denied though.
[G1 Android Development] r_dub:
Something kinda random don't know if it will help but after running mikeytaylor's fix_rotate script my g1 has random vibrating fits on 1.071 and also instead of trying to fix the blur cam which is trying to take 5meg pics why not port the HTC_camera to blur it was done on stock 1.5 so it may be more relaistic than trying to get the camera that's trying to take 5 meg pics to take 3.2 meg
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
It sounds like you have permissions problems in /system/xbin as the "free" binary is located in /system/xbin/bb/free . Did you download 1.071 and do a full wipe then flash it? Or did you use an older version?

Your fix would be to take /system/xbin/xbin.sqf from 1.071 and in recovery copy it over the existing one. Then just reboot and you should be good.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
That would likely be pretty easy and I'll give that a shot when I get some free time again
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
The issue with that comes down to when you press the camera button. We just have to hope that it opens the correct app when we press it.

That and I love the blur picture gallery :p
[G1 Android Development] r_dub:
You could in theory edit the HTC_camera app to use the blur gallery but this would fix the camera for now until the blur cam is fully working
[G1 Android Development] cdw9800:
love

so love this rom only issue i have is my camera dont seem too work
[G1 Android Development] diset16:
Same thing here i just hope that and the vibrate gets fixed and it will be damn near perfect
[G1 Android Development] m0j09987:
i just hope the vibration and the wi-fi works... ahhh been waiting so long... BUT U GUYS ARE DOING A GREAT JOB IN IMPROVING! :)

KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK
[G1 Android Development] r_dub:
@ shafty/Persian I may have found the problem with vibrate in the /system/lib folder there is a file called Vibrate_enable upon opening the file all it says is 0 which means somewhere else in the system it probably says Vibrate_enable 1=Enable 0=Disable o could be wrong I'm not at my comp so I can't test it but changing that 0 to a 1 may fix vibrate :cool:
[G1 Android Development] cdw9800:
Oh ok that sounds cool I rearly use wifi but to have vibration fixed that be the stuff man and my camera id be happy I'm also getting fc when going home I'm going to wipe and reflash and see if continue
[G1 Android Development] TabascoTX:
Moto BackFlip

There are leaks about a possible Moto "BackFlip" coming to T-Mo or ATT. It's said to be running Android 1.5 and is supposed to include the Blur software as well, if that's the case, then using the BackFlip software might actually provide some better results if you can get a dump of it from somewhere.

http://phandroid.com/2009/11/20/motorola-backflip-gets-rumored-specs-new-name/
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
hmm ill take a look at that tomorrow. But I'm probably going to spend the majority of the day looking at 2.0 :D
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
No you can ignore that, it was something I was working on but forgot to remove.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Camera will be fixed soon as I get some free time to work on Blur. It's an easy fix. New kernel + correct camera libs in /system/lib
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
That makes more sense. I didn't remember there being anything like that in system/lib when I was looking for vibrate lol.

Thanks for clearing that up.
[G1 Android Development] lesjaw:
wow..great news..can't wait..:D

camera fix is all i want..camera + galerry = perfect...hehehe
[G1 Android Development] m0j09987:
theres a problem with the text messages!!! it doesnt work at all!!!
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
Read the first post on how to report bugs. No one else is having that issue so it would help if you elaborated.
[G1 Android Development] bonesy:
if your like me and have no data but wanna try (wifi doesnt work) after you have flashed keep it in recovery and type

adb shell cd /system/app/

rm Setup.apk
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
Or you could read the thread shafty posted and learn how to enable wifi in blur ;)

Bug Report

The bug is when ever i connect my headphones (the ones that came with the G1) dont work no sound no indication that they are connected but if im using another rom it works my hardware is G1 T Mobile branded rom im using S-Blur_1.071.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Please do a search in this thread before posting a bug report. This has already been reported and answered.
[G1 Android Development] cdw9800:
Yeah

i did a search read somethings about it never found the fix thanks any way
[G1 Android Development] bonesy:
i tried shafty's way of enabling wifi with no joy
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Well perhaps it was posted in the old Blur thread. The kernel we're using doesn't support a wired headset. If you watch adb logcat during boot you'll see the kernel message.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
I haven't posted a ROM with my set of files that allows enabling wifi. I likely won't have time until later this week. I've been slammed every day with work & family events.
[G1 Android Development] cdw9800:
Oh

oh...ok thats a bummer!!!:(:(
[G1 Android Development] naria01:
For GPS, is it possible to take the code from another build (hero, donut, eclair) to get it running properly
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
Motorola used a new way to implement GPS. Those methods won't work.
[G1 Android Development] knotrkr:
WOW

WoW,

This Rom is Just amazing. I was actually considering buying a blur until now. I won't need one, this Rom is so near perfect that I have a blur now. Soon as you have time to post a fix to enable wifi this will be perfect. Thanks a lot for all the hard work and putting this rom together, it's great!!!!!!!!!!! :D

searching

I did a search and didn't find anything, But thanks anyway.. I'm always the 1st to tell people to search as well, but in this case I must of overlooked somewhere. Thanks for your help
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Not a problem and thanks for searching first, even if the answer didn't come up. Just as long as you tried. Perhaps prefix your questions with "I tried searching and couldn't find it" :P Just kidding.

Hope that post answered your question. I believe saving that space for no reason is pointless. We don't install anything else to /system besides those system apps so why save space? Might as well use the onboard flash for something and save the IO on the sdcard for our swap/user apps
[G1 Android Development] Jonno12345:
I did have a look around but couldn't see an obvious answer... the only thing stopping me from moving to blur now is vibration, is this ever likely to arrive? Thanks for all the hard work guys =)
[G1 Android Development] esouthatx44:
hello ive been searching on how to downgrade from ext3 to ext2, ive looked all over xda i know i seen it somewhere can anyone direct me as it says its better with ext2 im not having problems with my ext3 but i wanna see if theres a big difference
[G1 Android Development] jrm1508:
nice rom smooth fast no fc, just blur isnt for me but thanks for the chance to try it.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
yes you should switch to ext2. This is because the journaling on ext3 makes it slower.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
I would say yes it "should" be a possibility. I can't give an ETA but it will definitely be looked at in my final release
[G1 Android Development] xsilvercivicx:
would this work on a moto cliq??

hi guys this might be a bit off but i was wondering if this software would work on a cliq?? im considering trying to find a way to load this onto my cliq so i can get root... what do you guys think?
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
It won't even get on your cliq without root, so no it's no possible to put it on your cliq at the moment

Installed 2 days ago and have been running bug free on a 4gb sd hc card, G1.

Hardspl edition?
[G1 Android Development] thugplayer:
just installed and works pretty good.

cant wait to get GPS and Wifi.
[G1 Android Development] Jamison904:
installed last night and was very unstable... thanks for the hard work buddy. just not my time yet
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Seeing as how thousands of people have installed this ROM with no FC or instability you would have to safely assume you did something wrong when flashing the ROM.

Don't ya think? I have NEVER......lemme repeat that, NEVER gotten a FC or any instability issues with the latest release.

And I hammer the crap out of the ROM when developing and hacking it.

You're free to choose the ROM you shouldn't write off a ROM b/c you had user created issues.

This reminds me of people on the Market that give an app a score of 1 star b/c it didn't do something that the app never even said it could do.

Example:

Developer: An app that gives you random numbers to use for the lottery

User: 1 Star / This app guaranteed I would win the lottery and I didn't. Therefore it gets 1 Star, muahhahaah!
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
I got my hands on the latest OTA Blur release 1.1.31 and will be incorporating the changes into a new release.
[G1 Android Development] cdw9800:
cool man cant wait hopefully wifi n cam is fixed and i think id b in love lol also i never have fc but my phone gets really hot is that because its being clocked to 528mhz even when 3g is off the "chin" part is very warm.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
Ya b/c of the overclocking. Also make sure GPS & Wifi are turned off even though they don't work. That way Android isn't trying constantly in the background to enable them.
[G1 Android Development] r_dub:
Any ETA not rushing you but any ETA on a new release and again if its hush hush i understand but any progress on vibrate or cam?
[G1 Android Development] cdw9800:
ok gotcha no risk when running at 528mhz?
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
No risk..just lower batt life...and use these

Screen on-

max:528

min:256

screen off-

max:256

min:128
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
Nope. Thats the speed at which the phone processor is rated to run.
[G1 Android Development] cdw9800:
thanks

ok guys thanks for the help battery life is short cuz im always on my phone lol so that wont be a problem last question whats a good overlocking app i have seen setcpu but never thought id had to use it.
[G1 Android Development] redd12345:
@Shafty or @Persiansown

Is it possible to add the 10MB ram hack to help with the home screen swiping? This rom is fantastic and I know that the 10MB ram hack only really inhibits the 3d graphics performance. Is this something that either of you would be able to post as a boot.img file?

Thank you to all developers for their time and efforts.

Red.

PS. I tried flashing almost all of the listed 10MB hacks in the forum, but I have a feeling that parts of the kernel for the Blur Rom have things that are proprietary to it and won't let me use the other kernels.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
You don't need an overclocking app, the ROM is already overclocking your phone to 528MHz which is the max.
[G1 Android Development] shafty023:
The 10MB RAM hack slows down the phone. You are stealing 10MB from the graphics adapter which would make graphics even slower. The ROM is already running on software EGL rather than hardware EGL.

You can't swap out boot.img's because then you're replacing the init.rc & init.trout.rc which are proprietary for the Blur ROM. Even if you kept the existing ramdisk and only swapped out the kernel you probably would forget to replace the modules.sqf with one for that kernel. My suggestion, leave the 10MB ram hack alone. I tested against it and it didn't help the phone speed at all.
