Just flashed 2.8 to my G1. It boots up and android.process.acore force-closes constantly.

EDIT: Just flashed it and booted the first time without my SD card in it. Booted up fine. Must've been some apps2sd application or something. Lol.
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
Did you do wipe all three things?

Wipe Data

Wipe Cache

Wipe EXT partition

Repair EXT partition

Wipe Data

Flash
[G1 Android Development] linuxluver:
I do not have this problem on Cyanogen 4.2.14.1. I have tested it on that and it doesn't happen (HTC Magic 32B)

I've seen it on SuperD and FastTest....
[G1 Android Development] linuxluver:
I've had JIT on my phones for several now. It seems to take a few days to settle down and then it feels both smoother....and a little tighter. You can't run as many apps without starting to notice swapping getting in the way a little. So there appears to be a trade-off here. If you tune your apps to not start in the background unless you REALLY want them too...and keep the running app load down to perhaps 5-ish active *average*-sized apps....then you'll be happy.

But do seem to run out of runway faster / sooner if you start a lot of apps. This is probably what Cyanogen meant when he said it takes too much memory....at least on Dream and Sapphire 32B. A phone with more RAM won't have the same problem as soon.
[G1 Android Development] evilkorn:
This includes the HTC Music application from the mytouch fender. The install depends on a prop version number change and works, but breaks gVoice.

I would just like to echo the need for a change-log and a proper dev post.
[G1 Android Development] htcclay:
If this were my thread, sure...

I just release on my twitter because its easier and takes no time.

If a changelog is a must...ft may not be for you.

With respect

Clay
[G1 Android Development] mejorguille:
Clay, 2.8 is amazing. Great Job. I love everything in the rom, from the speed to the design. It looks and runs flawlessly, I have yet to get a force close since flashing. This might be the absolute fastest rom I have run on my g1, and I have tried almost everything out there. You have great taste in changing the design, everything from the lack from the custom icons to the notification bar and the launcher tray looks insanely good. Does not slow down while listening to music or browsing the web, and I can honestly say this is my favorite rom. A real changelog would be pretty cool, maybe you could PM the OP the changelog and he can do everything for you. If I was older then 15 and had a credit card, I would definately donate to you.
[G1 Android Development] sipvn:
Change log

We all have understood that no change log will come.

However if you already flashed this rom, feel free to post your own change log/report. I will paste them on the first post for easy reading and give infos to the ones waiting for them. Community thread.
[G1 Android Development] kefer:
have to ask!

is fasttest 2.8 realy . a superD Rom 1.9.3 just theme with some tweeks ?..but any ways I have been useing it a few days now . nice lay out very fast like superD,
[G1 Android Development] WiseJoeyD:
Combined with the JIT Compiler it's the smoothest, most surprisingly spritely ROM I've ever tried. It's telling that Cyan's ROM now feels... clunky by comparison, though I understand that his sizeable work/accomplishments lie deeper than just how fast/smooth the home screen slides back and forth, :).

Can someone link a Lite version of htcclay 2.8?

Related note: How can I strip out the apks I don't want from the 'full' release? Errors abound about missing apks during install when I did a spot of DIY on the ROM zip.

Also a technical query. Saw some comments about 3D performance on the different ROMs. What is the story with that? Why/How do they vary? And how does htcclay perform?

Thank you, sir htcclay!
[G1 Android Development] protomanez:
I find with this rom I'll get less lag when playing a really high 3D game like Armageddon Squadron. With Super D(w/o ramhak) I'll get lag spikes sometimes, which isn't fun =P
[G1 Android Development] SD2691:
Clay:

Clay: if you're open to a challenge (might not be hard for you haha) ... anyways, I LOVE the 3G and 2G logo on the Enoch theme...any way you can have that in your future roms? It sure looks clean and nice compared to the E "edge" and basic 3G icons.

It would be amazing if you got it going in your roms, if not I understand completely!

Thanks for the ROMS, you're my favorite dev!

- -

On a side note, for anyone that's interested, the "Enoch" theme works on FT 2.8! Just be sure you grab the font fix from the Darkstar thread and flash it after you flash Enoch.
[G1 Android Development] DrKaufee:
flashed 2.8 over 2.7 and it got rid of the weather and news widget? anyone else? why did clay decide to lose it?
[G1 Android Development] linkmaster_6:
I really like this mod. Only problem for me is Google Voice force closes on me. Fix that and your a god.

Im useing the JITdalvak idk if its that or not
[G1 Android Development] reserek123:
I'm on 2.8 and since version 2.6 I've been having a problem with the touch screen sensor. sometimes when I bring my phone out of a sleep and touch or swipe the screen nothing happens. I can easily fix this problem by turning the screen off with the end button and bringing it out of sleep again. I've tried almost every ROM out there and never had this problem before. Other than that fasttest is the sexiest, fastest and most stable Rom out EEEEEEEEAAZZYYYYYYYYYYY. Might cheat on my girl with this donut ;)

I already did a full wipe and re flash. I'm running 512MB, ext4 and a 96swap not enabled. (it's for my 2.1's)
[G1 Android Development] tmusall:
Same problem here. No jit, coming from a clean wipe. Will post a logcat in a few.
[G1 Android Development] tmusall:
Logcat of google voice force close.
[G1 Android Development] cu2cool:
Supposedly the ramhack is the cause of poor performance in 3d games.

And he probably got rid of the weather widget because it wasn't displaying properly. At least on 2.6.1 it wasn't.
[G1 Android Development] SuperBiGG:
Thanks for the ROM.

I use it with satisfaction on a Magic 32A. There is no hope of obtaining a version without ramhack?
[G1 Android Development] WiredAnim:
I have mentioned the Google Voice issue before and I was looking around to see what I could find out about the fcing with gv. The only thing that I could find is on a Super D rom Cyanogen said there was something wrong with the build.prop and that is what was causing the issue.

I don't know the first thing about build.prop files but hoped someone else did.

Great work on the rom htcclay.
[G1 Android Development] Klyentel:
I've found that if you could live with the constant force closing of GV, and keep it installed anyway, your calls will still come through as normal. Friend of mines called me twice today to my google number, not a problem at all answering or anything, but if I click the app to view messages or what not, all hell breaks loose with the force closing again..

so Im going keep it installed until the next update releases in hopes that'll fix it...
[G1 Android Development] robavila721:
i have been using this rom for a couple of days, and im getting insane battery life, when on previous roms i would need to recharge by 5pm, i find myself with 50% battery with this rom.
[G1 Android Development] evilkorn:
Read my post #239.

You should be able to just copy over the file and have gVoice work, with the loss of what I said in my post.
[G1 Android Development] evilkorn:
Just read my post, no reason to ask the same question 5 times after I told you solution.
[G1 Android Development] Macrophage001:
The dude has a paid app on his ROM.

Screenshot

That's warez right?

Has anyone noticed that yet?

probably have but didnt wanna say anything

sorry but yeah had to say something.
[G1 Android Development] Jerzeeloon:
Don't. Know what all the fuss is about with google voice,works fine for me even using voice to text.
[G1 Android Development] draco007:
just got this from htcclay twitter

"For those who want to try FastTest28Lite with WG-Kernel v3-beta(10mb RamHack) and new battery "

http://bit.ly/98fcep
[G1 Android Development] Jazup:
update

he just released a update with a fix for google voice, 2.8LGV

"http://bit.ly/9QaF3y"
[G1 Android Development] MarvinTheAndroid:
Straight off the bat 2.8LGV is absolutely screaming fast - just doing the obligatory first reboot now to allow the power control widget to work properly (indicators never show correct status on first boot).
[G1 Android Development] WiseJoeyD:
Thanking you for the Lite Version.

Spritely as always.

Absolutely no problems with the JIT compiler added in.

No desire to bother with the 2.x builds having found this ROM.
[G1 Android Development] founti:
installed 2.8 today ... blazing fast !

is 2.8 lite better in some kind of way?
[G1 Android Development] Klyentel:
Better to me because the Google Voice App works now, hooray!

Oh yeah and still blazing fast!
[G1 Android Development] founti:
well.. google voice isnt working in germany.. :(
[G1 Android Development] tuppaacc:
Is the update no wipe?
[G1 Android Development] engagedtosmile:
yes. first post.
[G1 Android Development] Remanifest:
Thanks for the update! This build runs even faster than 2.8LGV for me.
[G1 Android Development] dangambino:
This is a link to HTCCLAY ROM DIRECTORY. I'd like to share this gateway to the HTCCLAY GOODNESS!!! Hope this ok CLAY? If not, I apologize. Thanks for all your contributions

[G1 Android Development] Jerzeeloon:
Can I run jit on this?
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
Gamer edition released for all you gaming junkies.:D
[G1 Android Development] skyundersea:
Where is it...? The link is a twitpic. e_e
[G1 Android Development] Jerzeeloon:
Yes all i see is pic wheres the actual rom?
[G1 Android Development] sipvn:
no ram

Sorry folks, I posted the link I had on tweeter without trying it first (im testing a different rom right now), my bad :p

Apologies for all false expectations..
[G1 Android Development] pj_bj:
I'm using htcclay fastclean1.5, that works great. would anyone tell me the difference between fastclean and fasttest? thanks.
[G1 Android Development] htcclay:
htcclay

FastTest v2.8 (Non-Ramhack) "Gamer Edition" is out! http://bit.ly/d85BEn Before you ask...the answer is Just try it and see :)
[G1 Android Development] drewoid:
i believe the difference is in the appearance and no ramhack. saw something about it on twitter, but dont quote me.
[G1 Android Development] htcclay:
Hey,

FastClean is a Stock looking donut "clean" vanilla update...
[G1 Android Development] domenukk:
Flashing this now. Benchmark is always if Armageddon squadron is playable. at the moment there is nothing faster than csdi/blueMagic and htc 1.5 stock Roms...

Will report after update. Hope it's on par. :)
[G1 Android Development] so_fassa:
Any way to get the Email app back?
[G1 Android Development] ultra spikey:
There's no Terminal app and Spare Parts control for Swap/CC does not work.
[G1 Android Development] hu333:
Any solution to get GenieWidget.apk back over htcclay2.8?

I like this apk, so I have to use htcclay2.7 now.

thanks
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
You can download Adroid Terminal Emulator for free off of the market.

Spare parts control for swap/cc didn't work for me on any version since 2.5
[G1 Android Development] MarvinTheAndroid:
Use this one: http://www.sendspace.com/file/fgtxc1

Install using Astro or Android Mate (free version) from the Android Market.
[G1 Android Development] hu333:
This latest version works on htcclay2.8.

thank you very much!!
[G1 Android Development] Jerzeeloon:
Could someone please post feedback about speed and gameing performance
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
Speed = amazing

Gaming performance = amazing

Flash it!
[G1 Android Development] Jonathan062:
Email

Is there a way to get email on 2.8 "lite"
[G1 Android Development] Jonathan062:
hey just found this.

http://www.androidtapp.com/k9-mail/

works for my yahoo.
[G1 Android Development] dangambino:
Heres some new stuff posted by HTCCLAY! Keep those updates coming Clay!! Enjoy guys! You wont be disappointed!!

http://www.androidspin.com/downloads.php?dir=htcclay
[G1 Android Development] thepoetvd776:
This rom is amazing.

It looks so nice, i love the fact that the launcher is not visible, kinda like hiding the taskbar in windows. Sweet!

Is this faster than the bluemagic?
[G1 Android Development] domenukk:
Can't tell. this one is wicked fast also!

3D games are a bit laggier but still playable (tried armageddon squadron)

Navigating through menus seems... don't know. On par I guess. donut roms are frickin' sweet. too bad eclair will be the new hype as soon as the libs and drivers come out this month :P

I will stick with my BlueMagic, but I'm not disappointed if you don't ;)
[G1 Android Development] thepoetvd776:
I came from trying out all the Eclair roms and stayed using Open Eclair for quite a bit but i was missing the speed.

So today i just made the jump to use this rom and i'm amazed.

Frankly everything is there from Eclair except the live wallpapers. Also the stock keyboard doesn't have the voice button.
[G1 Android Development] ballerhaller:
hmm, does this have the htc music app?
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
hey man, as a developer, you might know why drizzy's eclair alpha droid port from january 1 is the FASTEST rom i have tried on my g1, ever.

All of the apps are odexed... but it's soooo fast. no camera/video tho. but you should try it (google: drizzy droid alpha)
[G1 Android Development] thepoetvd776:
I wonder how this compares to Cyanogens latest offering?

I feel like trying it out, but i just flashed this rom and quite frankly.... i'm amazed!
[G1 Android Development] spa3948:
can i know how to update this rom

I am using htc pvt board and on 1.0 os and what are the steps to update this rom so that I don't brick my phone I m using 8gb class 4 card and I havnt updated to any rom till now
[G1 Android Development] ERamseth:
anyone know if FastTest28WGFull.zip is ram hack or no ram hack?
[G1 Android Development] ERamseth:
NM i found out its ramhack
[G1 Android Development] turboyo:
is there a 2.8 with no ram hack and WG??? is this thing themed to black btw?
[G1 Android Development] domenukk:
No i don't. Eclair may have more advanced code than donut but donut roms have been optimized for our very handsets for just as long as eclair has been developed. (The fastest rom i have tried so far was the vodafone magic 1.5 rom by the way...) shure there will be one day when eclair will exeed donut in speed but by this time froyo might be out... well nevermind. Last time i was on eclair was when it was hot and new... maybe speed is already pretty usable.will find out after video drivers are released ;)
[G1 Android Development] Devin5277:
gaming wise this rom is better than the other roms with no ram hack. Its the only rom that I can play homerun battle 3d on consistently.

And that game is murder on our g1/mytouch 3g's

Great Job Clay
[G1 Android Development] ERamseth:
I dont think 2.8 with WG and no ram hack exists. I'm on the 2.8 "Gamer Core" edition... so far so good. pretty snappy and stable.
[G1 Android Development] Jerzeeloon:
After fully testing all the 2.8 roms,lite,full,wglite,wgfull,and gamer edition,I ultimately decided to revert back to 2.7 it just runs better for me and seems faster plus one thing that pisses me off in 2.8 is there's 2 music players one don't work and the other lags,so anyway back to 2.7 and content till somethin better,but this is still my favorite and the best rom series imo.thnx clay keep it up.
[G1 Android Development] turboyo:
I went with a 2.7 wg no ram hack .. I like it seems great just dont like all the baby blue stuff highlighted stuff . wish it was easy to make it green but ill live. Also 3d games (atleast shoot u! which is the only one i play) are still lagging for me I just came off a ram hack rom after a month and this is definitely there with its speed w/o the ram hack .. was hoping to be back in the top 10 on shoot U but w/e :)
[G1 Android Development] lilwing:
AHHHH how do i change the battery either back or to a round one...

so...ugly...

(besides if the estimation is going to be wrong id rather have an inaccurate picture then an inaccurate number :/ )
[G1 Android Development] cal3thousand:
I completely agree.
[G1 Android Development] Skynet2Mainframe:
I agree too. its should i say differant.

just flashed 2.8 wg full sofar nice and fast. keep up the good work.
[G1 Android Development] draco007:
just flashed to FastTest2.9 after a complete wipe of everything, getting a google partner setup (process com.google.android.partnersetup) fc. tryed wiping and reflashing 3 times still getting the same force close. anyone have the same problem
[G1 Android Development] t1h5ta3:
yep......:(
[G1 Android Development] kiyanofosho:
does anyone know tha changelog to 2.9?
[G1 Android Development] futangclan:
It's based on CyanogenMod v4.2.15.1 instead of SuperD.
[G1 Android Development] skyundersea:
I believe this is incorrect. FastTest is based off of cyanogen's kernel, and so is SuperDs. Am I right? I could be wrong..
[G1 Android Development] futangclan:
I meant the previous builds were themed versions SuperD builds, as Clay has stated on his Twitter. FastTest v2.9 is based off the latest CyanogenMod build, v4.2.15.1.

Everyone should follow Clay at http://twitter.com/htcclay to keep updated on FastTest.

You are correct that the kernel for SuperD is based off Cyanogen's kernel.
[G1 Android Development] j_temoney:
Flashed FastTest 2.9 without wipe from Fast28WGlite with no problems.
[G1 Android Development] nonamer:
Bit strange ... Coming from Cyanogen 4.2.14 ...

Made Nandroid-Backup, then Wipe and then flashed rom 1.9 with Ramhack

Booting up and still having all my apps and options? Have i done something wrong?

Phone: HTC Magic (32B), 32MB Swap + 256MB ext4 ...

Fresh sdcard! Formatted to this setup and then backuped apps with Astro and Options etc with "Backup"-app
[G1 Android Development] futangclan:
Did you wipe your ext partition?
[G1 Android Development] nonamer:
Hmm not really, but it was a brandnew sd ...

I formatted through adb shell in recovery mode ... Booted up once to my cyanogen and then again into recovery for flashing ... Does Cyanogen copy apps to the sd automatically when having an brandnew blank ext-partition?

I will try reflash now ;) and also clean up the ext :P I will see ^^

//EDIT: Now wiped ext manually and reflashed ... now I have a real clean new rom ;) Didn´t supposed that Cyanogen would copy apps automatically to sd when having an ext-partition ;) thx for hint ^^
[G1 Android Development] futangclan:
Yes, Cyanogen's ROM automatically detects when you have an ext partition and implements A2SD. However, SuperD ROMs DO NOT use the ext partition when detecting that the phone is a Magic. Hope this isn't too confusing.
[G1 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
Wiped, installed, Google Partner Setup FC :( (don't have an Ext-partition btw)

Which is a shame as the Rom is otherwise véry fast indeed :cool:
[G1 Android Development] futangclan:
Posted this morning:

@htcclay: I'm pulling 2.9...sorry guys
[G1 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
I see, missed that on Twitter. Would be handy to remove the link in the OP as well then, IMHO.
[G1 Android Development] tmusall:
Same here. Had low mic gain but easy to fix. Otherwise very fast, great build.
[G1 Android Development] chevycowboyusa:
People with problems

I had major problems at first.... I came from KingKlicks Eris port last night. did all the wipes and fixes and flashed ft2.9. I didnt have any google apps, and skipped the login at first. when i tried to log in to market, i realised i didnt have market. so I logged in to gmail.

I got so many FC's i had to shut down.

I did a switchrom back to CM's latest, wiped fixed flashed,

rebooted, logged in all is fine now.

maybe that'll help some with these problems....

good luck!
[G1 Android Development] draco007:
just got FastTest2.9 to work without Google Partner force close. Wipe everything then flash to Fast28WGlite do your google sign in and let everything boot then flash over to 2.9. that how i got it to work

Good Luck
[G1 Android Development] htcclay:
For those having issues flash over 2.8GV or Cyans latest...

Should be good to go...

Sorry for the mess up...

its a new build and im trying some new things.

Clay
[G1 Android Development] Deejaydark:
thats weird...

No problems here at all & i did a full wipe from 2.8 gamer edition.
[G1 Android Development] rfeige:
How do you fix it??
[G1 Android Development] nonamer:
After "testing" a few hours i have some questions ;)

What is the "app"/task google.partner? (com.google.android.partnersetup)

Why is the task "motorola.weather" always active although i don´t(!!) have a weatherwidget on my desk (i always have nothing on the desk except shortcuts until wanna use a rom for longer time :P)

Is it cause of my "new" swap-partition, that there such a lot of apps running? (a lot of apps i started before reboot ... but after reboot there almost "active")
[G1 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
This indeed works properly :D

No biggie, nice to be able to test it as well now, have high hopes for it, they better come true ;)

[Edit] It exceeds my expectations. This is thé Rom for now. Great work!
[G1 Android Development] here.david:
After not working (FC..no market...I had done the non-wipe then wipe a few times ) --- I had to do a bart back of cm 4.2.15.1 and then do 2.9 before booting and now it works...
[G1 Android Development] tmusall:
You can get MT3G mic gain back by copying a file in adb or terminal:

# mount -o remount,rw /system
# cd /system/etc
# cp AudioPara4-sapphire.csv AudioPara4.csv
# cd /
# mount -o remount,ro /system

Then reboot your phone. You should now have much better mic sensitivity.
[G1 Android Development] :
Im' confused, if I'm going from 2.8 to 2.9 do I need to wipe?
[G1 Android Development] magote:
Does 2.9 have JIT enabled, or do we still have to apply the update posted earlier?
[G1 Android Development] DrKaufee:
wow.. idk why exactly (how much is messing around with settings and how much is the ROM itself) but this thing is a beast! best experience ive ever had with my phone. It made me fall in love with my phone all over again.
[G1 Android Development] lucid_d1357:
FastTest 2.9 is excellent.

I installed it w/o wiping from 2.8 Lite, which was starting to lag around the week mark. Easily the most responsive version yet, especially the home screen. Will update in a few days.

The first boot did take a while and I had two force close errors for the home screen. I selected the 'wait' option when the force close message came up and everything loaded well after that. No problems since.

Great job.
[G1 Android Development] robavila721:
does anyone have problems with inaccurate gps readings. like when using maps my location is off by a couple of blocks?
[G1 Android Development] setspeed:
I'm still on FastTest 2.7, I believe if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Except it is broke for me - doesn't sync properly with Gmail. Downloads new email, but doesn't delete from the server when I delete on my phone.

Anyone else had this problem? I'm thinking bout flashin 2.9, to see if it goes away...
[G1 Android Development] opasha:
sup man. this has happend to me many times when i restore my nandroid roms. the reason this happens is because the data/cache needs to be cleared from both Gmail and Gmail Storage when you go to Settings>Manage Applications>Gmail, Gmail Storage. once you do that, it will resync all your emails again and when you delete it it will delete from your server. i'm not certain if you need to actually do anything to Gmail, but I do that anyway to start fresh. i know the main one is Gmail Storage, which needs to be cleared. hope this helps :).
[G1 Android Development] opasha:
this is something normal on 3g. when you are on 2g, it is more accurate, not sure why. but this is also a reason why your location could not be found when using hero roms. you would first need to go back to 2g and let it find you and then "my location" would start to function properly. very odd i know, but hope this helps.
