Why does it say that making calls doesn't work in 4.2? That's not true, I can make calls just fine.

It should, however, list that vibrate doesn't work, that the camera doesn't work, and that music playback is in mono.

There are also some things that are broken when you install the ROM (like Wi-fi not working after the screen sleeps after connecting, volume buttons not working while the phone is asleep, etc) that can be fixed manually post-install by following the instructions in the applicable issue pages and will be fixed next version.

The installation page is also missing the last two headings from the project page's installation page, which are important.

It seems to me that basically we now have to maintain content in two different places and they're always going to be out of sync. I think if you're going to link to the project page (which you should), you shouldn't have your own Changelog and Installation pages as they already exist on the project page. Having those as links in this site is a fine idea, but they should link to the appropriate pages on the project page, rather than being their own out-of-sync content. Either that, or Changelog and Installation should be taken off the project page wiki, but I think that would be less usable.

Love the logo though :)

Is anyone else having trouble getting location from the cell network towers? I'm in Edmonton on Rogers, and since installing the ROM on Monday I haven't once been able to get location data. There are defects related to location in openetna, but they're all with respect to GPS, which is working fine for me. There's nothing relevant in my logcat. Am I the only one who can't get cellular location?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] connora:
just say sorry.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cwhchew:
updated the website ! (:

it would be good if we have pictures of the phone in action
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Grank:
What you just wrote was excessively rude and condescending, and sadly I don't think you understood the conversation you were commenting on anyway.

cwhchew posted a link to this new website and asked for suggestions on it. This is an entirely separate site from the project page on Google Code, where the Issues are.

The new website had some incorrect information on its Changelog page, which was out of sync with the Changelog page on the Google Code project wiki, and said that making calls wasn't working at all in 4.2. That's false, as calls are working for everyone who isn't experiencing that 128KB SIM issue you've posted about here 5 times in the past 3 weeks.

I suggested to cwhchew to change that new website so that it doesn't have its own Changelog and Installation instructions, but instead points to those pages in the wiki on the Google Code project page. That way it's easier to keep them accurate, since they only have to update things in one place.

This has nothing to do with any Issues, or the Issues page, at all. (or the bug you keep posting about and seem to be weirdly defending: don't worry, it's a big issue, they're not going to forget it's broken! It affects lots of users of this phone, not only you.)

Please, before you meanly tell people that they're not the only users of the phone and they should read more carefully, you need to at least make sure YOU have read carefully and understand what is actually being discussed! :mad:

Or, a better suggestion, don't be mean at ALL, even if you DO understand what's going on. We all have the same goal here, a feature-complete 2.1 ROM, there's no reason to treat each other badly...

Annyway! Back on track.

cwhchew, thanks for doing those updates! I think it'll really make things easier to maintain that stuff all in one place. The only thing I'd suggest is to give those iframes a height, like maybe 500px, so that it's easier to read the Changelog and Installation pages. Good work :)

I could try and get some screen grabs for you to put on the site, do you have any suggestions?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cwhchew:
no problem ! hmm. maybe screenshots of the browser, the phone in call, etc etc ?

thanks for the support guys. i'm receiving about 200 hits per day (:

system.img can be extracted using unyaffs2, though you'll be having a hard time to flash it even after you mkyaffs2 it back to system.img, i couldnt get it to boot at all....

boot.img, i wont suggest anything, but you could just head over the source code, it should be straight forward and much more easier. its already there, all you need to do is modify then compile. done.

Would you guys be interested in a full working recovery for eve? I built the ally one and would be interested in building you guys one.

Things I'll need:

1) stock boot.img & stock recovery.img.

2) mtd partition list. from shell #cat /proc/mtd

3) output of mounts & df from shell

4) optional kernel compiled with ext3 and ext4 for apps2sd. I can build it if need be but would prefer for someone else to do it to save me the time.

5) testers

if interested please hit me up on twitter @getitnowmarket

Also, could some one clarify these mtd's

Mtd1 - usd -- recovery??
Mtd2 - pkg -- system??
Mtd3 - boot
Mtd4 - userdata
Mtd5 - lgdrm
Mtd6.- cache

does eve have a misc partition?

And GPS is broken again in Boot 1.5 (at least Copilot is not able to access GPS) :-(
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Grank:
Weird... GPS is working great on b1.5 on mine. I don't have Copilot, but the GPS Status app works great, and Google Maps works perfectly with the GPS as well. More importantly, cell tower location is finally working for me in b1.5, and wasn't before, so that's a win...

Maybe it's an issue with Copilot specifically. We should try some more third-party apps. Also, is there anything interesting coming up in logcat when you fire up Copilot and try to get a GPS fix?

Does anyone else's Facebook for Android force-close after loading its feeds?

Mine was working fine for the first few days I had s4.2/b1.4, and then I had to fastboot -w while working on some other problems, and it hasn't worked since.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled a buncha times and it doesn't make a difference. I really don't want to clear my userdata again... :( (especially since that's what CAUSED the problem in the first place so I don't know why it would suddenly undo it again!)

Looking at the logcat, it's a java.lang.AssertionError at com.facebook.katana.service.api.methods.FqlGetUsersProfile.parseJSON.

So I'm hoping that it's a problem deserializing some specific slice of JSON that the app doesn't like, that has just cropped up since Friday because it's on one of the feeds that it's syncing... because if so, that could mean the problem would eventually go away when whatever block that's the issue falls off the feed. I have no other way to solve it or even any idea where to begin, and lack of access to the guest list of Facebook events while on-the-go is starting to irritate me :(

Anyone else having any trouble with that app?

Do the following

1. boot as fastboot mode.

2. fastboot erase userdata. remove the battery.

3. put the battery again to boot to fastboot immediatly.

hello all, just wanted to share my experience...

i recently got a LG GW620g (entel pcs - chile)

no fastboot, fw v10A

anyway... after much suffering i finally was able to install V10d (v10g didnt work no matter how much i tried, always got stuck at 4%)

then i had to use a modified android_winusb.inf from tolemac to be able to do adb

finally i just flashed openetna boot v1.5 and system 4.2

gonna give it a spin and see how it behaves

cheers guys and thanks for all the useful info

i do think that the gw620 needs a stronger wiki and of course i would like to help

Where can I find documentation about the Android source structure and the openetna source? I want to contribute, but I don't really know where to start.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] giorgio130:
I'll tell you how I started. At first, just get it to compile on your computer :) it's hard to test a fix without getting this to work. Then choose an issue, and start looking on the net for people who had it and found a solution. It's that simple :) There's plenty of it here:

http://groups.google.com/group/android-porting

But really, you don't have to know all about android before starting to contribute. Probably the solution is already out there :) see you @ openetna!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zezke:
Thank you for explaining. I just completed my system.img, but it won't boot. How can i discover the error?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] giorgio130:
On device or emulator? start with emulator, it's easier to debug. to emulate use the script in my-system like this:

./emulate system.img

it will automatically show debug output... If you didn't do it yet you should issue a ./makeSystemImg eclair-cmd
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ikirt:
If this is the case, you should have him inform their support people because I was told that the LG eve would not get updated past 1.6 since there is not enough room on the phone for that OS.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zezke:
It's just the default source compiled without any changes. I can make it boot on the emulator (rather slowly, but no miracles there). When I flash that same system.img to my phone (after erasing userdata) it appears to be hanging during the openetna boot logo.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] giorgio130:
The system.img under the /out directory in android source tree can't boot on device. you have to move in my-system, and use the script makeSystemImg as I said above, you'll find a system.img in that directory after.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] giop:
Just an update, for those who miss input method with word prediction. I'm using now the free beta version of SwiftKey, you can find it in Market, and it seems to work very well. Many languages supported.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zezke:
Sorry apparently I wasn't clear: it's the openetna source compiled with the system.img from the my-system directory.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] giorgio130:
did you flash the boot.img as well? old boot.img can't boot our system... if it still doesn't work, issue an "adb logcat" and see what's the problem.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zezke:
New boot.img as well. I'll try "adb logcat" tomorrow, but thank you for the tip: I didn't know you could access your phone during boot using adb.

Official Rogers 1.6 is nearly released confirmed by LG Canada.

A chinese fan vampireman reported this email from LG Canada Customer Service:

original page(chinese):http://bbs.gfan.com/viewthread.php?tid=215632&pid=4471347&page=1&extra=page=1#pid4471347

On behalf of LG Canada, thank you for your inquiries regarding the LG Eve. LG Canada has been working to release the Android 1.6 OS upgrade for the LG Eve, which is now expected to be delivered to Rogers for testing in early September, 2010 due to internal delays.

Once certified by Rogers, the upgrade will be made available for download from the LG website and will require a PC sync. We appreciate your patience and thank you again for your inquiries.

LG remains committed to investing in the Android platform and will have some exciting innovations for you this year. However, a 2.1 OS upgrade for the LG Eve will not be made available as the device cannot adequately support the features associated with it.

Regards

Dave H.
