I've only wiped my N1 once...and that was to root. I do like no wipe updates...

It'ld be cool if someone came up with a way to store your desktop layout. Allow for easier wiping and restoring.
[Nexus One Android Development] cyanogen:
Yeah, thats the problem with the G1 obviously :eek: Apps on the G1 are constantly fighting for it's limited memory, while the N1 with 4x the memory is keeping those apps around (and paused) just in case you want to use them again (and if you don't, they will eventually be killed when something else needs the space).
[Nexus One Android Development] jdoo:
Titanium Backup does this and its freaking awesome. The pro versions unattended restore completely restores all my apps, their settings, and my homescreen in under 5min after a fresh wipe/install. You just need to manually select "home" or "launcher" from the backup screen in the program as a batch backup doesnt catch it.
[Nexus One Android Development] cyanogen:
This would be really easy to implement I think.
[Nexus One Android Development] FrAsErTaG:
Is there a mirror for

gapps-passion-ERE27-2-signed.zip

???

Thanks
[Nexus One Android Development] seanowns:
Totally agree with this suggestion. I hate spending an hour or two getting things organized. This would be a huge addition for me.

Also, your g1 mod is is amazing. Wish I found it when it was still my primary phone. Either way a good backup model now.

So titanium backup does this? I do have launcher backed up but was avoiding a test for now.

Which SDHC card format should one use?

What do you people think the best format is for the memory card? FAT32? ext2? ext4? FAT32 would be compatible with Windows, but ext2 is probably good because it's not journalled, though ext4 might have better security against data loss. I don't know whether ext2 is faster than FAT32... but it might be necessary for a larger memory card; I forgot the maximum drive size for FAT32. What are your opinions?

Ya somethings up with mediafire right now or something?
[Nexus One Android Development] myn1:
It would be really useful for us if that feature can be included in recovery or ROM (i don't know). I spent quite a lot of time to download and configure the apps.. I wiped once and that's a nightmare to me.
[Nexus One Android Development] Bamdroid:
I too was having issues downling the zip file from media fire...tried for 2-3 hrs...but its working now, or did I just get lucky??

Oh I do have a question...any order to flash these new updates if we're already running the awesome CM 5.0 beta4?? I almost dont wanna b/c my N1 is running fine as is, and never noticed any 3G issues...

Thx
[Nexus One Android Development] cupOjo:
Think you got lucky.. but I def wish I had some luck right now, or just a fix for the link.

Edit: Looks like lady luck is on my side now.
[Nexus One Android Development] myn1:
Too bad drop.io is down for maintenance now or i can have the files uploaded there...
[Nexus One Android Development] xiutian:
The download link for the gapps-passion-ERE27-2-signed.zip is working for me now as well

Edit: Wiped and flashed everything again and all is working well. Thanks Cyan!
[Nexus One Android Development] lightforce:
updated the radio through the zip then reflashed all the zips and im up and running good.
[Nexus One Android Development] piggie916:
Was wary at first but.. i did a wipe today and installed all the new stuff.

WOW!! I had jit running with the extended ram. The new build is indeed faster than when i had jit on. Minus all the random reboots.

GREAT JOB!! I AM LOVING THE RADIO!!! I actually get 3g in my house! I have NEVER EVER EVER got 3g in my house.

Your the man
[Nexus One Android Development] irishrally:
What were you running before you installed the new radio? Did you have to wipe?
[Nexus One Android Development] Deathwish238:
Hmm so I guess not much can be done for the G1 then.

It would be amazing to have it built into your ROMs!

No problem :p

Check it out!

I have not flashed the new radio yet but wanted to try the new gapps and MT addon.

I flashed gapps 27 (2) and MT addon, both from the first page of the post. I cannot not seem to lock on to satellites and I have lost my MT in the browser, but it does work well in gmaps and gallery.

I have read that other people have had issues with GPS. Is everyone having issues or just a few? Was I supposed to lose MT in the browser?

If I had flashed the new radio first, would that have made a difference?
[Nexus One Android Development] jtn7040:
Im gonna assume yes because I have no problems with my gps at all and all mt works great.
[Nexus One Android Development] johnnie93:
Ya I want to know if the new radio will fix the location issues...but the browser has multi touch I haven't lose any MT goodness :-)

after 5.0 beta. problem with Voice search

I am sorry if this is not posted in the right place. let me know if its not and ill keep that in mind in the future.

after putting the 5.0 beta boot rom on my phone Nexus One I have noticed the voice search on my phone has not been working. when i try to use it the error message pops up and says its not responding and needs to force close.

since the upgrade of my boot rom i did install google translator which requested that i DL and install svox speech synthesis data installer. it was after this was DL from market that i noticed the problem.

When you DL the file it says it is installed on the SD card. I then used Root Explorer to navigate to my SD card and deleted the file svox. there is no trace that i can see on my phone and i still cant use my Voice search.

other then this issue i love the new boot rom and thanks so much for putting it out.

anyone who has and advice for a fix of my current problem please let me know.

Thanks.
[Nexus One Android Development] irishrally:
I played around and now everything seems to be working (MT). Searching for satellites still takes significantly longer than before, but I do eventually get a weak signal.

fastboot radio

hi there,

im doing this:

fastboot flash radio recovery-RA-nexus-v1.5.3.img

and getting this:

sending 'radio' (3550 KB)... OKAY

writing 'radio'... FAILED (remote: image update error)

any ideas what might be casusing this?

also, since im in the uk, it wont let me use navigation since its "not available in my area." how can i get round this?
[Nexus One Android Development] xiutian:
Are you trying to flash the recovery or the radio?

If you are trying to flash the radio, you are sending the wrong file. File should be radio-ERE27.img
[Nexus One Android Development] geovass:
thanks!!!

Will dl now!
[Nexus One Android Development] irishrally:
You need to type fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-nexus-v1.5.3.img

EDIT: Just noticed the title of your post. So, yes you are trying to flash the wrong file, like the guy said above.
[Nexus One Android Development] teihoata:
Yeah I have noticed this as well whilst using this rom, does anyone know a fix? I have tried killing all processes and hard reseting the phone multiple times but still remain with the high battery usage. I currently have to keep using enomthers roms as the battery life with CM5 is horrible for daily usage, such a shame, excellent rom otherwise :)

Step-by-step for the noob with the new phone

Hi there, and thanks for this tremendous work!

I am about to receive my brand-new Nexus one in the next few days. Is there a procedure for what I need to do prior to the steps above?

I am wondering through the forums for the last few days and I see many procedures. Nevertheless I am not 100% certain I am not missing something (rooting etc.).

Thanks in advance, and again - capital work..

Itamar

EDIT...

I beg your pardon... just found that in the WIKI by Cyanogen (see in the bottom of first post) there is exactly that...
[Nexus One Android Development] fahadayaz:
haha doh!

i was trying to do the radio. very silly mistake to make.

thanks!

any ideas on getting navigation to work?
[Nexus One Android Development] fahadayaz:
try this

[Nexus One Android Development] xiutian:
Refer to this. Look through the last few pages for the MT version.
[Nexus One Android Development] irishrally:
Maybe you get download the setcpu app and reduce the cpu speed back to stock. That should save battery life, but it may hurt performance.
[Nexus One Android Development] limkoksoon:
tethering..

why does this rom lack of tethering? can someone make an update.zip for tethering? thanks
[Nexus One Android Development] xiutian:
USB tethering is in the Wireless Networks settings.
[Nexus One Android Development] scote:
probably provider dependent then?
[Nexus One Android Development] heikkih:
flac?

has anyone looked into the flac-support? are the patches only in the core system and how is the relationship between this and the default player?

in short: flac's are recognized but won't play for me, and I'm interested in getting it working :)
[Nexus One Android Development] teihoata:
nope tried lowering it and made 384mhz the max but still the battery drains at like 1% every 3mins without usage (gps off,2g only,wifi off,bluetooth off,sync off).

android system is using about 54% while the display is down to about 12%.
[Nexus One Android Development] fahadayaz:
thanks!

btw is it right that i cant see paid applications listed when i click one of the app/games and then a category?
[Nexus One Android Development] Bamdroid:
I've flashed all the updates and everything works like a charm. My pages are opening up just fine, MT in gallery n maps no issues with GPS or wifi. Thx again Cyan for all of your hard work!
[Nexus One Android Development] fahadayaz:
are you using the .ogg extension?

also, is it encoded in 16bit? i believe it cant as yet play files encoded in a high or lower yet
[Nexus One Android Development] limkoksoon:
i know... but i want wireless tether too..
[Nexus One Android Development] heikkih:
I'm only using 16bit/44.1khz *.flac, yeah. (nothing to gain on ripping cds at lower or higher)

MediaScanner works fine, but MediaPlayerService only returns a MEDIA_ERROR.

Will try debugging the patches if I get some spare time this weekend.

Was just wondering if it was working for somebody else.
[Nexus One Android Development] fahadayaz:
rename the file *.ogg
[Nexus One Android Development] sepffuzzball:
16bit/44.1khz *.flac is working for me, encoded using latest Winamp Pro. On beta3 I was getting crashes when using the stock music player, but since I went up to beta4 it's been all good for me.

Honestly, that's the major reason I dropped the stock ROM...no FLAC support.
[Nexus One Android Development] ruZZ.il:
Halleluja! I man that looks :) n00bs (I'm one too, of sorts), read & learn.

I really don't understand how so many people set off with this stuff without having a clue what they're doing. I respect someone who does their homework even before getting their device. almost every question that's been asked here has been answered already, and there are at-least 20 tutorials on basic rooting and installing recovery out there, etc..

Guys, really, if you haven't got a clue, maybe it's not for you..
[Nexus One Android Development] Kman Gymrat:
Hey Cy,

I've been lurking these forums since I got my N1 and finally got the guts to go ahead with rooting/modding ROM yesterday and I must say Thank You Sir! Don't get too drunk off the beers I bought ya! We need you sober to do your magic.

For the noobies like myself trying to figure out how to do all this stuff I found theunlockr.com to be very helpful - hopefully I don't violate any user agreement for this forum by posting up that site (I didn't go through it very well to be honest so to the mods my apologies if it is in violation of anything)

Wireless Tethering

If you want the Cyanogen Mod with Wireless Tethering you can either download and install the beta wireless tethering for root users from google or you can go to MoDaCo and get the Cyanogen Mod with the MoDaCo goodies "baked" in.

You will still have to flash the MT add-on after you flash the "baked" rom. The MT is not included in the MoDaCo version of Cyanogen's Mod. There will be apps for both usb and wireless tethering on that version.

CM5Bx battery

anybody else have the "problem" that with CM5Bx the standby uses most of the battery while standby time is ok?

Runtime: 9h, Display on: 50min, done some surfing, emails, sms

Battery down to 71%, seems ok to me.

Before CM5Bx it was like that the display took about 50%
[Nexus One Android Development] lessthanjoey:
My point was just that the phone does not seem to automatically drop the 3G unless data transfers are going on as people here suggest. Mine just hangs out on H or E depending on what coverage I have (in a bad building or not). I'm on T-Mobile in San Francisco.
[Nexus One Android Development] mightykc:
I am noticing the same thing
[Nexus One Android Development] hks18psigst:
Ever since updating to the new radio I've been getting "Formatted for mobile viewing by Google" at the bottom of the page and I can click view page directly if I want but everything seems to open in Google any ideas what I did wrong or any ideas how I can fix it. Makes me so aggravated.

Edit: I also can't use bank of America which I use daily :(

Noobie question, I just put on CMod beta4 last night with all the addons listed on page one. I see threads for himem or highmem (however it's spelt) but I'm not sure what this is. Is it a part of CMod's beta4? If so is there something I have to do to activate it or something? From other posts I've read from searching I see people saying they have 300,000+K free memory where mine only shows 248000-249,000k free (according to OS Monitor app)? Is that normal after updating to CMod's beta4? If not how do I get this himem? My phone is already faster and smoother than when it was stock but if this is something additional to make it better I'd like to do it. I don't have very many apps installed so don't think that could be why I'm so low compared to the other folks that have so much after they install himem. Is there a way to check if I have it? Thanks for any help guys.
[Nexus One Android Development] ruZZ.il:
CM5b4 includes the himem. 200+ megs free is definitely a result of that. you would have otherwise had in the low tens..

himem basically activates an additional memory block, that for some reason isn't yet used in the stock ROM.
[Nexus One Android Development] seanowns:
I think its like 395k total memory with 220 free or so in the norm. My phone seems to run between 40-160 depending what apps i am using. This is a great step up from them 20-85 i used to run pre high mem.

bootscreen looping

SO I flashed new radio, cmb4, g apps ere27, and mt addon last night. Today i went in to settings or spare parts (dont remember) and selected the compcache something or other. and keep home in memory. then it rebooted and is in loop. what should i do rewipe and reinstall?
[Nexus One Android Development] seanowns:
Compache is the culprit. Cyanogen mentioned the bug some pages ago. Just turned on keep home in memory and no problems as well....
[Nexus One Android Development] mikebeatrice:
This has been discussed at least two other times in this thread. Cyanogen even explicitly didn't recommend it in the first post and just a few pages ago said he would be removing it (as well as other useless things from "spare parts") from the next beta because of the problems it causes.

I don't recall the resolution that the other two people had... I believe they had to wipe and re-flash, but you should check back in this thread for additional details.
[Nexus One Android Development] badnewswrx:
so how do i need to re wipe and flash?
[Nexus One Android Development] Kman Gymrat:
LOL I just did the same compcache thing too thinking it would save even more memory and it was doing the same thing...luckily I did a nand backup after I put on beta4 and all that last night so I just waited for it to go off then put it in recovery and reverted to it. That sorted it for me. If you don't have a backup then not sure what you can do.
[Nexus One Android Development] badnewswrx:
I thought I nandroid backed up properly but apparently I didnt, because it fails.

so.... proly re wipe and flash? huh? :mad:

EDT: also do i need to reinstall radio after wipe? i dont think i do
[Nexus One Android Development] Kman Gymrat:
Thanks alot for clearing that up for me :)
[Nexus One Android Development] Kman Gymrat:
How many backups did you do? When I went to revert it showed me a few that I did and I chose the most recent. Maybe if you have more than just one you can try a different one? Other than that yeh I guess wipe and redo but I'm no expert at this so maybe someone else can help you out better.
[Nexus One Android Development] badnewswrx:
im just re wiping and flashing i have titanium back up so it wont be too bad.

and yea i had diff dates of nandroid backups but every1 failed.

so what is the right way to do a nandroid backup. I thought you just hit backup
[Nexus One Android Development] mikebeatrice:
If all else fails, there's threads here with links to stock roms that you can flash.
[Nexus One Android Development] badnewswrx:
well back up and running. just cmb4. i did do the ere 27 addon file.

but the build number still says erd79.

everyone else get that? or did i once again screw it up lol
[Nexus One Android Development] Kman Gymrat:
Yeah that's what I do then wait for the dots to go by and it pops up saying it's completed. Did you wait for it to say complete?

Then when I go to restore it shows me a list of backups I did which it just numbers them and I picked the last one down the list assuming/hoping it was the most recent which it seems like it was. Then I confirmed action, waited for it to complete and rebooted and all was well just had to redo all my settings and redownload my apps from the market.

By the way I'm assuming those backups take up space somewhere so a) where are they stored and b)how do I delete ones that I don't want to keep anymore? Anybody knows?
[Nexus One Android Development] Kman Gymrat:
Mine still says that too and I was wondering the same. but everything functions fine and I have the adons like goggles which I believe is part of the OTA ERE27 update
[Nexus One Android Development] simms22:
how much battery% do you have left? if under 40% it will error. try plugging in and doing a nandroid restore.

and yea, wipe and reflash :)

really? nandroid will error with <%40 battery life?
[Nexus One Android Development] domi55:
Cyanogens answer to your question: Here! ;)

cheers
[Nexus One Android Development] maxawesome:
The full command to flash the radio (with the Android SDK fully installed and updated) is as follows:

adb remount
adb devices
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash radio radio-ERE27.img
fastboot reboot

If you saved the radio-ERE27.img file somewhere other than in the same directory as fastboot.exe in the SDK (for example D:\Downloads\), the command would look like:

adb remount
adb devices
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash radio D:\Downloads\radio-ERE27.img
fastboot reboot

I always execute 'adb devices' just to verify that adb can see my phone. If it doesn't see your phone, you may spend unnecessary time trying to find out why. Easiest just to check first.
[Nexus One Android Development] deprecate:
mount your sd card and look in /nandroid/deviceid/

As long as you are sure the latest backup you made works, you can delete everything but the last one (the folders are named by timestamp).

thank you kindly

How long on first boot after ROM update?

I just did the ROM update (update-cm-5.0-N1-beta4-signed) and currently my N1 is at the nexus one boot animation screen. Has been for a few minutes now.

Was wondering if this is normal?
[Nexus One Android Development] ruZZ.il:
Have you got version !(2)! of both the ERE27 and MT addon linked on the first page installed?
[Nexus One Android Development] SPAS79:
well i did that yesterday, so I guess I do have version 2 of both. If not what shall I do? Just flash over or wipe first or plain nandroid rollback and re-flash "from scratch" (that would be from 5.0b2=highmem

...

Thank you guys!
[Nexus One Android Development] Kman Gymrat:

Great ROM so far and lots of help here. Thanks to all, especially to Cy for all his efforts.
[Nexus One Android Development] uberpowergeek:
Works wonderfully

I had flashed to CM54 earlier this week and it worked wonderfully. Yesterday I flashed the radio update, the ERE29, and multitouch and I'm happy to report that everything is working smoothly including himem. Great job Cy, I owe you a beer.

The only bumpy part for me was after flashing the radio, booting to recovery hung for some reason (15 min). For a minute there I thought I had bricked the phone. I was forced to pull the battery and reboot, this time booting to the system and everything seemed to be working. I then rebooted to recovery and flashed the two updates, restarted, and everything has been working fine since.

[Nexus One Android Development] jagjr86:
Same thing is happening to me - From flashing the radio and booting to recovery, it is the boot screen for 15+ minutes. I took the battery out like you did and booted to recovery (not letting the phone boot up like you did) and flashed the N1B4, GAPPS, and the Multi-Touch zips, rebooted and now the phone reboots every 15 seconds - So freaking annoying, doing a nandroid restore right now... wonder where I went wrong. Should I have let the phone boot all the way up after flashing the radio? :confused:
