if you have amon's recovery there is an option to conect to your pc via usb. i do it all the time.
[G1 Android Development] Kaneda15:
OK, thanks much for the info.. i appreciate it.

re-downloading now.. and will see what happens. hopefully it will work this time :) hopefully
[G1 Android Development] sd2649:
It'll be fine, as long as you can get to your recovery image, your phone is safe

Back on topic.....

Has anyone gotten Google Earth to work on this rom on a G1?
[G1 Android Development] Kaneda15:
looks like the install of the zip file went fine.. partitioning of the sd card afterward went fine.. upgrade to ext4 went fine... now the big test.. rebooting, and seeing if it actually boots ;x
[G1 Android Development] nebrada:
Google Earth is only compatible with the nexus one right now. No 2.1 rom is capable of running google earth on a G1/mytouch
[G1 Android Development] fridasa:
Does this ROM consume much more Battery? because since i changed my phone EATS battery!

Hi

I'm using v1.7.1 , and for v1.8 : SPL Required: Special SPL , this mean Special SPL same with Haykuro/Danger/Death SPL ?

I hope Youtube is working or/and video play-back :D
[G1 Android Development] DrLfresh81:
Ha!!! lol:D

now we need a special SPL which one is that one now??:rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] jusberry07:
mmm I think it the same, I get the info :

"haykuro's 1.33.2005 special spl instructions;

in order to run haykuro's special 1.33.2005 spl, you'll need to be sure of a few things beforehand,otherwise you will end up with a useless,bricked,dead,unrecoverable g1. "

so Haykuro SPL = Danger SPL = Death SPL = Special SPL, I'm correct ? :D
[G1 Android Development] snudel:
i am still urgently waiting for a ram hack.

the screen fix would be nice either

and one more thing is strange with eclair roms.

my bluetooth handsfree is transferring the phonebook. but it is schowing each number sepperatly and not like usual one entry where you see all the assigned tel numbers.
[G1 Android Development] oeildefeu:
It's working for me on stock SPL (Vodafone FR)
[G1 Android Development] SG_Shadow:
...youtube working???
[G1 Android Development] vtikha:
Which SPL do you have? you need to be on Special SPL. Have a look a few posts back it will also give you the links and everything.

Can anyone tell me how to disable A2SD for a Magic?
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
To disable a2sd (Magic only):

1. Repartition without ext partition (set size to 0 and it won't make one) -- Optional, but since it won't be used it's just a waste of space

2. Flash ROM, don't reboot

3. Modify/replace /system/bin/a2sd -- example attached

4. If you repartioned with no EXT, modify/replace /system/bin/user.conf to change mmcblk0p3 to mmcblk0p2

5. Fix permissions

6. Reboot

There's many ways to make the modifications, I use adb.

Change a2sd:

adb pull /system/bin/a2sd a2sd

Modify the local a2sd (you could download and rename, or push a2sd.txt, my attached a2sd instead)

adb push a2sd /system/bin/a2sd

Change user.conf:

adb pull /system/bin/user.conf user.conf

Change all occurences (2) of mmcblk0p3 to mmcblk0p2

adb push user.conf /system/bin/user.conf

Fix permissions

adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/a2sd /system/bin/user.conf
adb shell chgrp 2000 /system/bin/a2sd /system/bin/user.conf

755 for user.conf does seem a little odd to me, but IIRC that's what it was before, and it works, 644 seems more appropriate to me though.

I'd recommend Notepad++ to make the edits.
[G1 Android Development] djmasque:
Thanks for this. Do you have to wipe before re-flashing? I'd assume not, but should check first
[G1 Android Development] weirdocollector:
Pleaseeee :(:(
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
You should be able to do it without wiping or flashing, you'd just have to remove the symlinks and move everything from /system/sd/ to /data/. If you repartition, move the data first so it's not deleted (and obviously anything else on your sdcard needs to be backed up).
[G1 Android Development] Bzerk1:
Is it just me?

or is this ROM SUPER FAST when its rebooted. and it's like insanely fast and smooth. My nexus launcher is like on crack!
[G1 Android Development] vtikha:
Did anyone try this? I have some doubts about it and quite reluctant to do two full wipes....

Cheers
[G1 Android Development] snudel:
the launcher sucks hard. its not really fast. if you switch to usual start page and install application manager to kill unused programs from memory its very fast.
[G1 Android Development] bolmedias:
Okay, I don't know how it happened, but on my second attempt with 1.8, everything has been working superbly.

Market runs at normal speed, there's a bit of lag sometimes on the Launcher (normal launcher) but not much, and I love it.

I would highly recommend investing $1 in CacheMate, and a bit more in a task manager.
[G1 Android Development] doomahdang:
aosp 2.1 [1.8]

i love the new version 1.8 but their is one problem that i wanted to ask. i cant seem to b able to hold and drag to delete some of my apps. im only trying to delete the shortcut but its not working. any advice or suggestion you can give me? thanks again for everything.
[G1 Android Development] jtroye32:
Drag very slowly.
[G1 Android Development] azn1art:
After flashing 1.8 and messing around with it for a few hours. Noticed after the 1st flash everything was slow so I rewiped and reflashed then everything became a lot quicker.

Video works fine, managed to play 3d games fine. Youtube works. Everything just runs smooth, Even with launcher2.

Few issues:

1.) When you press menu on the home screen, menu bar on bottom doesn't come up.

2.) If you rotate while in the 3d gallery, it messes up.

3.) Sometimes the power control icons disappear. (Never had that issue with previous versions.)
[G1 Android Development] NJAZ:
Wow ... this is the fastest, most stable and complete 2.1 build available right now. It takes a while (give it plenty of time) for the phone to stabilize and you HAVE to know what your doing to make it work properly. Thankfully I've been at this for while and I know what apps to use to assist with the load 2.1 puts on a G1. Launcher screen is awesome; works great. 3D gallery is working though it does seem to tax the G1's system a bit and as azn1art said "If you rotate while in the 3d gallery, it messes up." other than that this ROM is GREAT!!!! It's my new daily ROM! Thank you KingKlick!
[G1 Android Development] Chahk:
Here's a better idea:
[G1 Android Development] shawn1224:
Home seems a lot more stable than launcher, also it reboots when loading certain live wallpapers.

Also it seems like there's a little bit of lag, is there anything I can do to speed this puppy up.
[G1 Android Development] Henka85:
i couldnt believe it, but this rom (both launchers) are slower than any sense i ever used, even kings 2.1 sense
[G1 Android Development] f4bio:
/sign

but 3D works great (game: "racing thunder 2 3D")

but everything else is lagging extremly

many important processes are terminated (even messaging (SMS/MMS), calendar, etc etc)

a pity...

i went back to cannon202s complete eclair. MUCH better ...
[G1 Android Development] mylostlonelysoul:
Youtube is working :D Not HD but atleast its working!

Its seems to run a bit slow, dunno if my partitions aren't right, but speed is one of my big problems.

Also it has restarted it self 5 times in the past 24 hours, not too sure what thats about?

But 3D is working excellent after I flashed and rebooted.

Luancher also still seems too laggy to use, so gotta stick with normal Home for the time being.

Lastly when making/recieving calls takes min for the screen to actually come um to either answer the call or the call menu, I saw others were having the same problems as well. Some way to fix this?

Other then the speed/lagginess and restarting issues, this is the best yet. :)

Great Job!

This ROM is now complete. The youtube app is working in both low/high res. The new gallery app is just beautiful. I've been using the Home++ replacement home app with every ROM I use these days. No problems at all. I will continue to look for and log bugs. Thanks for another great ROM.

I read somewhere in the thread as to why some of the stock (default) live wallpapers don't stay set, though I can't seen to remember completely why.. will this be corrected?
[G1 Android Development] syla:
this rom is everything but stable...
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
my guess is they use gles functions our g1's aren't really capable of

remember these lwp/launcher2 have been backported from higerspec phones

solution,

wrapper for libgles_qcom.so

strip 'higher' function calls from the apps

BUT, and it is a big capital but, I have not looked into this, would actually know where to start

I'm just guessing

wrapper would be good, it could sit between libegl and libgles_hardwaredriver.so

and 'dumb down' the functions

but again, I'm not qualified.. maybe one day I can make myself smart enough to know its a bad idea or how to do it
[G1 Android Development] jc1337:

Live Wallpaper and Experience

The Launcher home is very laggy not too smooth. Same with the live wallpapers. Does anyone know why a couple of the live wallpapers are showing up as white screens during the previews. And they don't work either. I re-flashed (full wipe) it too thinking there was a problem in the installation but that didn't help. Any suggestions or ideas?

Bug Report...

So far the ROM is just amazing. The only issue I have is when the phone is idle, I try to enter my password pattern and it takes me a couple of tries to get into my phone. I'm assuming it's from lag. I haven't tried to enable linux swap or anything like that, but I might look into it.

[G1 Android Development] mrslayer007:
just wondering

Im a noob but does it matter what spl you are using? i have the death spl on my phone, would it make it solower or faster? im justwomdering because kings 1.8 is laggy and i havent had a problem with his other roms.

also i just flash the death spl to try the other hero roms before falshing 1.8
[G1 Android Development] Jeffro64:
Death/Special is the SPL needed for this rom.
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
no its not

check the No Danger Link in my sig
[G1 Android Development] Jeffro64:
My bad... I forgot about your work around.:D But if you are flashing this rom as posted then you will need Death/Special SPL.
[G1 Android Development] erhanz:
ooooookayyy...no virtual keyboard??
[G1 Android Development] Jeffro64:
Firerat.... Have you discovered a way to get Google Voice Search or the LWP's to work?
[G1 Android Development] mautai916:
Has he posted up the 10MB hack yet?
[G1 Android Development] peenoise:
Non voice search virtual keyboard

Am I missing something I went from Version 1.6.1 to 1.8 and now I no longer have the voice search keyboard
[G1 Android Development] Jeffro64:
Are you on touch input or android keyboard?
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
I've hardly used this ROM

LWPs , will more than likely need taming by coders, either each app, or some wrapper code

google voice search

I guess its just a bad build, aosp is a moving thing, code breaks all the time

take apk from working ROM and see if it fixes it, then again it could be a codec issue

your best bet is to md5sum the previous working release and compare against this ignoring duplicates

ickle shell script I use

md5sum $1
adb shell md5sum /$1

but I redo that script depending on what I'm looking at

for instance , if I was looking at libs

md5sum $1
adb shell md5sum /system/lib/$1

cd unzipedROM/system/lib
find .|sed s/^/miscript.sh\ /

would give me a nice big list

hell, add a third line to the script

adb shell md5sum <path to another unzipped rom>/system/lib/$1

and you begin to understand why all the roms end up with the same bugs ;)
[G1 Android Development] Jeffro64:
Gotcha... I'll play around and see if I can find something. Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] bobbylx:
If you're not seeing the virtual keyboard I would try reflashing. I've got this loaded on my MyTouch3g and I have virtual keyboard in both portrait and landscape mode no problem.

And for what it's worth, I think this is another great ROM release from King.

On my MT3G,

I did a full wipe,

Already using EXT 4,

Flash 1.8

Sign in

Then applied the JIT/Davlick Hack.

This thing runs like a bat outta hell. Using Home++ and a few widgets and no issues whatsoever.

Also, has anyone determined if the new Radio version is causing any issues? I'm still on 26i, but I've seen lots of people who have problem are on the new Radio. Just wondering if that is an issue or coincidence?
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
EXT 4 with a MT3G :eek::confused:

check this post

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5920845&postcount=927

but if your already settled into your ROM then boot to recovery and

adb shell mount -a
adb shell sed s/\-e\ \\\/dev\\\/block\\\/mmcblk0p2/\!\ \-e\ \\\/dev\\\/block\\\/mmcblk0p2/ /system/bin/a2sd -i
adb shell rm /data/app &&rm /data/app-private &&rm /data/app_s
adb shell cp -a /system/sd/* /data/

that little lot will

edit /system/bin/a2sd and reverse the logic on SD card test

remove the symbolic links in /data/

cp your apps to your HUGE faster than SD mt3g data partition

if your swap is set up on partition 3 then you can leave it

but say you wanted it on 2

adb shell sed s/mmcblk0p3/mmcblk0p2/ /system/bin/user.conf -i

now you could make a no wipe flash to 'fix' these files

and I might get round to hacking some logic into a2sd for you mt3g guys

either from /proc/cpuinfo, or the size of data partition ;)

check for swap or ext<n> magic and set swap up appropriately

we use our keyboards, you guys should use your data partitions ;)
[G1 Android Development] lilrob29:
well 1.7 say video drivers coming soon then 1.8 says Youtube has been reported as fixed so does it or not?
[G1 Android Development] tavskeez:
youtube works for me in high quality. whats confusing is the keyboard being changed to an earlier version with no voice search and problematic keying.
[G1 Android Development] bobbylx:
Thanks for the info. I just picked up the MT3G about 5 days ago and didn't even think about the partitioning. I just used the same setup I have on the G1. It was strange not needing to flash the SPL too.
[G1 Android Development] whorehay:
Why is ext 4 bad for MT3G?? I came from King's Droid2G1 ROM and you need ext 4 on that one for google apps to work.
[G1 Android Development] Jeffro64:
If you change the input method to Android Keyboard you will have the voice key... atleast mine does.

is anyone else having issues with adio playback? my audio skips in the stock music player and on youtube...
[G1 Android Development] Eclair~:
I tried do hard to enjoy this ROM, but its just horribly 'not good'. Maybe because I dont have JIT enabled? Its simply not what, stable? Fast? Of course I hear this is typical of 2.1 ROMs - but even that Droid2Eris ROM seems maybe more faster than this.. I'm typing this on this ROM actually, but when people at school tell me that my phone is "lagging" too bad.. I gotta switch.

Of course this isnt your fault King, its an - ok - ROM all together.. if I wasnt ordering my Nexus tommorow.. I'd be switching to OpenEclair 2.0 in the future. I try to be happy with all ROMs (Ive said rom too much, lol) but this is kinda giving me headache.. then again, I may just be used to FastTest - now I see why people don't use 2.1 releases as their daily drivers.. quick, but not quick enough.
[G1 Android Development] Jeffro64:
I did the JIT on mine and it flies.... makes a great every day rom.
[G1 Android Development] tavskeez:
yeah, only in high quality. i don't know if this makes a difference but i only run the home mode, rather than launcher. i like swiping through screens in landscape mode and you can't do that with the "launcher" option.

3D gallery is pretty rad, too. i dig it.
[G1 Android Development] shonuff81:
im not sure whats wrong...

i flashed 1.8, coming from 1.6.1, and i get stuck on a bootloop. I have wiped, using fat 32, ext 4 and swap, and nothing.. first time ive been stumped, and first time i have asked for help, which would be much appreciated. i Went back to 1.6.1 for the mean time.... any ideas?:confused:
[G1 Android Development] Jeffro64:
Try reflashing but do a full wipe of all options then install. It will take a while on first boot so give it time.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
The OP

Wipe Required: Full Wipe
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
if I had an mt3g I would test that just for fun

the fact is the mt4g has a much larger data partition than the g1

it can easily accommodate these 'roms'

and I'm sure I don't have to tell you that this data partition is faster than the sdcard
[G1 Android Development] malaeus:
i actually had to do a bart backup. and copy EVERYTHING from my FAT32 part onto my computer. then reformatted the SD card completely.

then wiped (i know sounds stupid, but i did it anyways)

then installed.

idk if itll help. but its worth a shot.

you can just drop all your files from your computer back on your FAT32 once you are done.
[G1 Android Development] shonuff81:
hmm.. i re-formatted my partitions... and no go.... is there something im doing incorrectly as fas as "fully wiping"?... sorry, never had this problem switching from rom to rom... i feel like a retard
