wow! thats like 1/4 of all the apps in the market! thats a big bug...

I think I'll stick with super d black nexus version for now.
[G1 Android Development] kefer:
thank you !
[G1 Android Development] unkleremis:
Maybe I am lucky but I am getting no force closes. Dunno if it makes a difference, but I am running 2.6.1 tho. And while I understand Fasttest and SuperD run off the same kernel base, I find that they are not the same, just differently themed.

I have run several versions of both and had different issues with each one (such as volume issues with SuperD and none with Fasttest while Fasttest doesn't run one of my apps (Think Free mobile) while SuperD does), leading me to conclude there are more than just theming differences between the two. And I am having no issues with Fasttest 2.6.1, while it seems faster to me.
[G1 Android Development] linuxluver:
FastTest is missing stuff

FastTest is missing some methods that many apps require if they have anything to do with location or maps.

I've documented this over the past few days. I know of 5 apps, including Wifi Tracker and My Tracks and CoPilot that are broken.
[G1 Android Development] Jaivee:
Is there anyway to fix this?
[G1 Android Development] linuxluver:
FastTest v2.6.1 still missing android.view.ScaleGestureDetector.onTouchEvent

The simple answer is to put back whatever was taken out / left out / or missed that broke it.

It looks like this method is part of Android's gesture support. This blog post explains how to use it in a gaming context.

So it looks like somehow the gesture support in FastTest is partially broken.

The two ROMs I've seen with the problem are FastTest (v2.4 to 2.6.1 inclusive - haven't tested prior) and Complete Eclair v1.1.

SuperD - v1.8 through to v1.9.1 - does NOT have the problem....so that's the main ROM on my second phone.

My primary phone is Cyanogen Mod v4.2.14.1......for when you need your phone to just work.
[G1 Android Development] Burko:
I think this is probably the best quote in the dev forums.

I do totally appreciate the work done in the 2.x roms, but dont think Cyan gets enough credit for the stability and usability of his roms.

Most people treat it as a fall back if another rom isnt suitable, that pretty much sums it up.
[G1 Android Development] dangambino:
I like the BOOT CONTROL widget. First time seeing this in a rom. The icon is cool also. It gives you options for the following: reboot (obvious), recovery, power down, boot loader, and wipe handset. thanks
[G1 Android Development] arefin:
ya it would be nicer if this app worked!!!!!

I cant find it working on my G1 :-(
[G1 Android Development] cu2cool:
Just flashed from v2.3 to v2.6.1. Works so far. Only things I've noticed is the Weather/News widget gets cut off at the bottom right half. Has anyone found a way to get the eclair 3d app launcher working nicely on the MyTouch? I really want it!!
[G1 Android Development] kaizasoshi:
Anyone know where I can download 2.6.1? I'm only seeing the 2.6 download link. Thanks!

Could you explain or post link to how this is done? I am new at this. :)
[G1 Android Development] frettfreak:
Kings latest AOSP 2.1 rom (1.6.1) has it and it runs pretty smooth, and as far as 2.1 roms out there, his are far superior to anything i have tried IMO.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=622170

2.1 just doesnt run as snappy as i want on my Mt3G for them to be an everyday rom yet. I am hoping that once we get some vid drivers this will fix the prob but who knows.
[G1 Android Development] cu2cool:
I just tried out the 2.1 ROM you suggested as well as kingkilck's expresso ROM. The nexus launcher didn't turn out to be as exciting as I hoped it would be (maybe because it's the formatted version). No video playback, and it was slower compared to the 1.6 ROMs. Also tried Stokes Eclair ROM, but nothing impressive there either. Probably gonna stick with FastTest or SuperD for now. Trying out MLIGN's hero ROM right now, will see how it goes.
[G1 Android Development] linuxluver:
Missing method bug fixed, but.......maps only partially draw.

I flashed FastClean 1.2 today and the missing gesture method bug is fixed in Wifi Tracker and My Tracks.

Yay! Well done, htcclay! With this and the MT3G audio fix in a future version of FastTest, it can move to the head of the class. :-)

There is still a more minor bug showing - identical in both apps. A portion of the lower-left display doesn't refresh. But both areas remain sensitive to touch input.

I also tried Google Maps and the display refreshes fully and correctly.

For what it's worth, SuperD also has this drawing bug.

But CM v4.2.14.1 doesn't. Nor does OpenEclair v1.2.1. So it isn't the apps.

I would suspect the 10MB RAM hack except OE v1.2.1 uses it and GMaps 4.0 draws perfectly on ALL these ROMs.

Screenshots of the bug.

Wifi Tracker

MyTracks

Here are logcats of what is happening at this point in Wifi Tracker and My Tracks.

fantastic rom - Gps issues resolved

Can confirm that all known issues relating to GPS applications have now been resolved.

This will now be my daily rom.

Thanks Htcclay
[G1 Android Development] dangambino:
Great Rom. If I were to build my own rom, it would look like this. Thanks HTCCLAY for making it available. And for the constant updates which keeps improving it. The best 1.6 rom available.
[G1 Android Development] cjbrigol:
FastTest v2.7

Definitely a GREAT rom, but I never had GPS issues in 2.6.1 so I'm kinda wondering what everyone's talking about...like in the maps application?
[G1 Android Development] dangambino:
Check some of the recent threads. Someone (sorry i forgot) said it was bad code that was being copied by some of your local devs and distributed in their releases. Seems it was with apps using that feature?! Seems HTCCLAY is on top of it as he explained on his twitter page (great job CLAY).
[G1 Android Development] linuxluver:
The Gesture support was partially broken because a required method / class (assume you know what these are...) was missing. Apps like Wifi Tracker, My Track and CoPilot would crash on startup and GPS was unreliable from that point onward.
[G1 Android Development] linuxluver:
I have found the Eclairs can be made to run very well with some tuning. I turn off all animations, keyboard suggestions, auto-completion ('auto-mistake') and use a 96MB swap file and 32MB Compcache. I use SetCPU to lock it at 528MHz if I'm actively using the phone, otherwise it drops back to 384MHz or lower. \

Set up like this pretty much any of the better eclairs run very well.
[G1 Android Development] bolmedias:
Okay...how do I remove Twidget from 2.7? I have tried the standard 'rm -r' commands to no avail.
[G1 Android Development] linuxluver:
I'd make it the daily ROM on my main phone if there was a version without the 10MB RAM hack. I like my main phone to be 100% functional. 3D games and all. My main phone usually runs the latest CM.

My second phone is the RAM hack / Eclair / Hero / Rom-of-the-minute jam beast. I switch ROMs on that all the time when I want specific features.
[G1 Android Development] dangambino:
Yeah I like mine full functional as well. Yeah, I thought I saw a no-hack fix for super-d. I haven't tried it, though I was considering it. I'd have to agree that the tweaks that were mentioned for eclair roms do seem to help (probally going to try complete eclair_dark rom tonite).
[G1 Android Development] domenukk:
No-ram-hack for superd works fine on this but breaks compcache. I recommend 64 mb of linuxswap.

Edit: flash this update.zip: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5673928&postcount=19

flashed fasttest 2.7 and this update without wipe over superd 1.9.2 and its superfast!

Thanks. Ill try it later. Its the non- ram hack for super D?
[G1 Android Development] so_fassa:
Is there anyway to install the wireless tether from the previous versions of FastTest? When I select to install a message appears saying the app cannot be installed on this phone. I have tried using appmanager and astro. Is there a script to make the install work via terminal?
[G1 Android Development] domenukk:
Yes.fasttest is based on superd so this update works for both. It basically installs Cyans kernel.for superd you can also simply download the rom with wg kernel.
[G1 Android Development] peppens1:
I have some question.

- this rom have Wifi thethering kernel? because I installed WIFI theter from market, I turned on thetering and then I tried to find my htc Magic with Nokia n95, Nintendo Wii and a Asus notebook.....I found the magic hotspot but when I tried to connect with it, the connection failed....

why?

- In the old cyano rom, in the browser there was the option of User agent ( android, computer, Iphone).... in this rom will be implemented in future?

- How I can create in the menu subdirectory to divide the apps that I installed?

I must change the launcher?
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
Running a clean wipe of FastTest 2.7CustomLite and I have never had my phone so responsive and smooth. We'll see how it holds up after a week though.:D

BTW: If you backup your apps from Super D 1.8 (that had wireless tether) and then restore your apps to this rom you will have wireless tether. Mine works fine and that's what I did. I also still have the quickboot shortcuts, which I like better than the little android guy.
[G1 Android Development] Klyentel:
I haven't tested the new fast test 2.7 yet,

but Im running the fast clean 1.4 and it's hell of fast, Love it. Good work @htcclay :D (credit of Ben as well)

this is an era of superior rom flashing on XDA, I must say. There are numerous stable builds both donut and eclair.

The need to flash is no longer to find a build I can comfortably use, but to only anxiously see the new features and enhancements you guys vigorously continue to add daily.

I follow all of you guys on twitter. Once again thanks and keep em coming!!!:)

Anyone tried this new app yet? Has a bit of good reviews and just hit the market. The set up instructions are vague and I haven't figured it out. Has anyone else here got it working? I'm trying to get it working on a N1.
[Nexus One Android Development] flak0:
Ok So I know a thread already exists for this however I belive its being viewed by the wrong audience. Mod please do not delete or merge, Im hoping to get this thinktank going.

All of us with the Nexus 1 should know that HTML 5 is already supported by the most recent version of webkit(webbrowser) we have See below:

Im wondering if Cyanogen or any of the developers could edit the webkit to get it to work as it is claimed to work with h264 codec. Using Youtube's HTML5 Beta you can see we are almost there. See pic below.

Our N1's support this codec natively. It seems its already there we just need for our browser to recognize the <video> tag. Devs can you please help, this would be a huge jump and leap that we would cross and would not have to twiddle our thumbs waiting for Flash and of course another advantage over the Max-I-Pad and Ifone......

The same occurs with Stock MT browser and Dolphin.

(Thanks Mikhael for the Screenshot)
[Nexus One Android Development] SilentMobius:
Ok well remember that Android CoreMedia only supports a subset of the mp4 spec. However it looks like the mp4 videos on youtube are playable, at least the ones I scraped are.

I'm not sure what you're trying to achieve here. The android youtube app pulls the same mp4 files (depending on bandwidth) are you specifically wanting the video to play _within_ the html control or do you just want to be able to click on a html5 <video> element and have that video play fullscreen? The latter is possible if the site makes sure to an an onclick event to the video as mentioned here:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1711078/html5-video-element-on-android

I just tested this out myself making a HTML5 page using the <video> element and clicking on the element does indeed simply play the video. So really its allready done, we just need to convince youtube to update their site/mobile site.
[Nexus One Android Development] Mi|enko:
I think he just wants to be able to open a video within the browser itself.
[Nexus One Android Development] SilentMobius:
That is unlikely to happen, the overhead of rendering a video to a surface then compositing that onto a webview would be a massive waste of cpu. I'd be happy to have fullscreen video kick off from clicking on a <video> element and that pretty much works as long as the site owners use video.play(). Unfortunately youtube does some auto-detection that doesn't bear android in mind, but thats more youtube's fault, though a default onclick event might be nice. You could do that with oilcan and a userscript
[Nexus One Android Development] j.books:
but isn't the real value of Flash (and HTML5) not just in playing video in the Youtube sense, but in fully rendering interactive animation on web pages? I think that's more what people are missing more than just embedded video when they bemoan the lack of Flash in mobile web browsers...
[Nexus One Android Development] SilentMobius:
The OP was talking about HTML5 video, if we're thinking about enabling the whole mathml/svg namespaces then that is a different thing entirely, and much harder again.

Personally I loathe flash, as a developer myself, I'd much prefer it to die. But I can see the utility of having it available to android users so that we have the option of consuming content. Regardless of the quality of the content designers decisions.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] akashastrega:
I recently installed Jacko's hybrid 6.1 rom, and am loving the numbers, eye candy, and other details...BUT...my calendar is NOT holding appointments.

I first tried installing my backup, then tried manually entering my appointments...if I go to month view, it will very briefly (as in a nano-second) flash the triangle on the date of an appointment then it disappears. If I go to the date it will again very briefly flash the appointment, then it will say that my day is free. If I attempt to re-enter the appointment on said date, it still reads as if my day is free.

I am a busy mom who juggles many appointments, I survive on my calendar and alarms.

Please help me to fix this issue. I await your prompt responses and am extremely grateful for the help!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] akashastrega:
~BUMP~

I ended up flashing back to a stock rom late last night because of this issue. I'd really like to give the hybrid a try, so I'd appreciate any insight to correct this calendar issue.

Yhank you in advance, it is most appreciated.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] akashastrega:
So the work-around--- shut off sense, enter the appointments into the standard calendar, soft boot then restart sense. The appointments will then show.

May not need to shut off sense and soft boot, but it didn't always register on the Today page if I didn't.

Is a slight pain in the ass, but worth it for a rom that in every other area fits my needs to the T.

Now I just need someone who is good with creating reg entries to cook me up a cab to fix the Home button issue and this rom would be perfect!!

Is it possible to change Hero Sense navigation panel ( the one which is in the bottom, like semicircle ) to one that Nexus has? Or even android standard one?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
You can change to android stanard very very easy without doing any modification of your phone.

Go to your apps list and select "htc sense" or "touch flow" whichever is what you see and then click "clear defaults"

Then press the home button.

At this point it should give you an option to go home with either "home" or "touchflow" click home and you have default android. But will not have any of the htc specific stuff e.g. widgets.

You can always revert back by clearing defaults in "home" in app screen (assuming you set it as your new default)

Download LAUNCHER2.APK

Then:

adb remount

adb push Launcher2.apk system/app

Voila!

If it doesn't work, rename it to Launcher, and it'll just wipe it over the top.

If you have any problems, let me know and I'll sign it as an update.zip for you.

BE WARNED THOUGH: Due to the demanding graphics, although it strangely runs MORE smoothly than the stock Android 2.1 launcher, it can on occasions cause your phone to SOFT reboot.
