[Nexus One Android Development] minogue:
Works as smooth as Alpha7, i had already installed mountusb on mine along with the 3d gallery from stock nexus and replaced thekernel with the overclocked! other than that. The voice search now works Great and maps now have multitouch!

great Rom after all, keep it coming!
[Nexus One Android Development] squintzzhero:
A8 update worked for me no-wipe. Internal storage went 10mb to 101mb, so i can pass on apps2sd for now. thanks p:D:D:D I still have my swap partition, and ext2/3 set up still on my sdcard. Besides space will i get any performance/stability increase with a non partitioned sdcard and just my swap partition? ie. deleting ext fliesystem with just a swap partition
[Nexus One Android Development] minogue:
go with 8 dude, and the above mention works on either one
[Nexus One Android Development] Eclair~:
What if you were to replace the Launcher in this ROM with the Nexus One Launcher, is it even possible? I don't really want the Sense one.. if there is no way though, then I don't really mind. Just a curiosity question - I guess I like eye-candy.
[Nexus One Android Development] mgorman:
ya. if you go into the apps and goto launcher and reset defaults and choose launcher2 you will get the nexus launcher.

Not really a theme. I just modified the notification window so its transparent.
[Nexus One Android Development] Lodell:
Gallery 1.1.30682 would hang, and loose root.

Superuser Permissions 1.0.0 would make TB fc and loose root as well. Just exclude them from batch before you run it.

Reboot will give you root again, so no biggie.
[Nexus One Android Development] jlevy73:
With the OC kernel did you just flash that over the ROM?
[Nexus One Android Development] tizzl10:
ok, let me get the order down.

1. put alpha 8 on root directory of sd card

2. apply recovery image

3. wipe

4. wipe dalvik-cache

5. flash alpha 8 rom

sorry, im coming from a 1 click blackra1n jailbreak method lol. please correct my order here..thanks.
[Nexus One Android Development] jlevy73:
Yep that should do it.
[Nexus One Android Development] dnanj:
I have to agree. I have a few apps that I like/use regularly and they take up a lot of space.

Earth - 22.48 MB

BodyFitness - 14.16 MB

Baby Flash Cards - 7.53 MB

Game Time Lite - 4.67 MB

MySpace - 4.47 MB

EarthRot - 4.23 MB

Astro - 3.64 MB

Where - 3.08 MB

Trapster - 3.02 MB

Handcent SMS - 2.91 MB

Twidroid - 2.76 MB

Barbie Puzzle(Daughter's Favorite Game) - 2.36 MB

Movies - 2.11 MB

My Account - 2.11 MB

These apps by themselves add up to almost 80 MB.

Forgot to mention:

I'm not saying app2sd is required for this rom only, but for all N1 ROMs.
[Nexus One Android Development] Eclair~:
Lol, if I had my Nexus One I would've known this =P

But thanks anyways!

Will it stay as the Nexus Launcher, or will it change back?
[Nexus One Android Development] McFroger3:
Has anyone noticed this build is very sluggish?
[Nexus One Android Development] mgorman:
If you select Launcher2 as the default it will stay as the Nexus Launcher until the default is changed again

Feedback

Feeling the lag.

After reboot I show my SSH pword and it did revert to display Alpha7.

153MB available space after installing Linda File manager

Wifi ok

Maps (pinch) ok

Didnt get the galery from the OG OS
[Nexus One Android Development] GNOve:
how can i have the sense widgets with the android launcher?

When i clear the defaults and choose launcher i get a fresh android desktop. Under widgets no sense add ons.
[Nexus One Android Development] Vision77:
Wow you are throwin mad darts at the king LOL SMH
[Nexus One Android Development] McFroger3:
Ok from reading the posts, it seems this does not have the himem kernal. Is there a way we can flash the himem kernal onto this build. The build works great, but is extremely sluggish.
[Nexus One Android Development] mgorman:
my phone has highmem. I don't know why no one else has it. If you go into shell and type "free" what does it say?
[Nexus One Android Development] McFroger3:
Its starting to speed up after a reboot.

On another note, anyone get quick boot to work on this rom?
[Nexus One Android Development] amar_raavi:
Anybody having problems with the capactive buttons backlight ?
[Nexus One Android Development] McFroger3:
I have mixed results. Sometimes they work and sometimes they don't.
[Nexus One Android Development] hah2110:
I had this EXACT problem as well. Scared me for a second.

No issues here.

No issues here.

Bluetooth still seems to be a huge impediment. This time it paired after a lot of "discoverable on/off" while trying to pair and I can make calls but I cannot control send/end with the button on my Icon. Moreover, it doesn't connect on startup. Bluetooth on the phone needs to be turned on and off.

Under phone storage, I have 115MB free... Does that mean I have Himen?

On a side note - I have not found a way within MyBackupPro or Titanium to restore the home screens which, quite frankly, is a huge pain.
[Nexus One Android Development] mgorman:
I cannot get quick boot to work.
[Nexus One Android Development] McFroger3:
Downloaded a terminal emulator and tried

su reboot recovery

I get a Permission denied.

I know i have root access as N1 Torch works.
[Nexus One Android Development] mgorman:
I just tried. I got denied as well.
[Nexus One Android Development] strikerx312:
not sure if this was covered but in alpha 8 the charging led is flashing as the notification instead of the trackball light

Disregard post.. figured it out.
[Nexus One Android Development] GodDriven:
You Tube Video....

Hey All I posted a video on this Rom and a good bit of information on a nifty little app CALLED LOCK 2.0... Be sure to check into this, maybe you've been asking how can you have both the STOCK Nexus Launcher Interface and The Sense UI in the same package.. :p

Most home replacement's can achieve this as well... :D
[Nexus One Android Development] Iman07:
how ridiculous, i restored all my apps using titanium backup and i have 4mb left of space. who ever thought app2sd was not needed obviously didnt have 120+ apps installed. we need apps2sd on this, even if i have to pay for it.
[Nexus One Android Development] jp2000:
Couple of issues:

1. The phone seems kinda sluggish. I think something maybe with the new .32 kernel.

2. My battery is running @ 35C+ instead of like 22C. Is this something with the voltage change?

The speed is the same as measured by BenchmarkPI (3000-3100) as was with Alpha 7
[Nexus One Android Development] mgorman:
Says the videos not available

They need to fix the market so we can get apps from the US Market. Half the apps I use i cannot download.

[Nexus One Android Development] louie_figo:
Just flashed to alpha 8 on my N1, but I am still having missing apps issue in android market. I can't search for Twidroid (lite and pro) and Barcode Reader. I also tried to install Barcode Reader by going to Google.com via the browser. Went to the top menu in Google->More->Shopping->Read Barcode. It launched the Android market app, but then said it couldn't find the application.

Please help!
[Nexus One Android Development] GodDriven:
I remember you... Your Funny.. Good job, Almost passed Noobie, Now learn perfect ./adb and ./fastboot commands (YOu ReAlLy NeED TheM) and your off to be a andronite. Your On the wave.... :rolleyes:
[Nexus One Android Development] McFroger3:
Its because this market is from the UK (I think.) and we need a modded market(Vending.apk)
[Nexus One Android Development] t2abousa:
Im considering going back to Alpha 7, i dunno, just seemed smoother and the battery seemed better off...what do u guys think?

I've been keeping up with this thread because it's the best thing I've seen yet!

Can anyone tell me if the HTC keyboard is still presesnt? I like that one over the stock one. Thanks!

Any way to get Google Navigation loaded on Alpha 8. I have not seen any post about it. Thanks to Modaco, Cyanogen, Enomther,AmonRa and JF!:D
[Nexus One Android Development] GodDriven:
I don't know what you might mean about this... But... It comes with the rom, like anything installed on any rom...

Having issues.. type where you wanna go and it should say navigate under directions...

K?

I can't get my bluetooth headset ( jawbone ) to pair...it doesn't even see it...

hmm...
[Nexus One Android Development] t2abousa:
it saw my headset and paired but wouldnt connect
[Nexus One Android Development] suhailtheboss:
few other issues ive noticed:

cant change voicemail settings to google voice, or activate visual voicemail with tmobile.

signal is very weird, monitored it for a few minutes, it randomly drops to 0dBm every minute or two. (i am on radio ERE36B)

loving the fact the nexus news has been ported over, i'm not a big fan of the HTC news widget.
[Nexus One Android Development] oklahomatulsa:
..Oh..I was looking for the Steering Wheel icon..lol got spoiled and forgot about the good 'ol Gmaps icon and than just selecting voice and Say "Navigate to Pizza." thanks
[Nexus One Android Development] GodDriven:
Noticed something else... Maps is not naming the roads in Navigation.. Only on the Name section, not the spoken word...
[Nexus One Android Development] hah2110:
You need to check and uncheck discoverable as you are searching and as you are trying to pair. I had to turn BT off and on a few times to get it to work.
[Nexus One Android Development] jlevy73:
You have to use undervolted overclocked kernel for it to work. However, even with that I can't get it to pair. It's says paired but not connected
[Nexus One Android Development] jlevy73:
Finally got jawbone to connect. What a PITA. You got keep at it for a while then it finally connects.
[Nexus One Android Development] phonepersonality:
Trying it now.

Nice One! :)
[Nexus One Android Development] Worsty:
Can't seem to find the button to disable the phone from picking up on the sim card contacts when you try to dial using Sense's T9.

I am able to disable the view from the people portion though. Is it actually possible? Vaguely remembered that i didn't encounter this issue back when i was using the HERO GSM.
[Nexus One Android Development] suhailtheboss:
i would like to know this as well.

:cool:
[Nexus One Android Development] thalib_atc:
Installed the rom.. Looks very fine and faster with more system storage available.. Bluetooth seems to have some problems as i cannot pair the device with another.. Also +++ point as the recharge notification led now acts as a notification as it blinks when u have missed call and new message.. etc.. Also Paul is it possible to port the stock contacts manager just like u did port the gallery... If this is done will be very nice...
[Nexus One Android Development] thalib_atc:
Can anyone post the nexus stock contact manager as an update... Htc one is not so gooood... Messes with contacts after restoring adding - between numbers...
[Nexus One Android Development] tizzl10:
wow..i cannot stop playing with this thing (thats what she said)..ha!
[Nexus One Android Development] altarity:
A8 Locked my poor nexus

Wiped and flashed A8 coming from CM 5.0.3. My phone totally locked upon boot. Got the HTC screen (seemed to lag) and then got the unlock screen. Upon unlock got an FC of ACORE and a flashing notification led. Screen became un resonsive as did all soft and hard buttons. Took me a minute to get the cover off and pull the battery. I Then reflashed, and the phone locked again without an FC, and I had to pull the battery again.

I'm guessing this is the undervolt kernel and I just happen to have a cpu that can't handle it. Anyone else want to guess?

EDIT: All's well again back on CM 5.0.3. Also I ran Alpha 7 for a day without this problem...
[Nexus One Android Development] dahui9:
everything is beautiful so far :D we shall see tomorrow when I try to push my Nexus, great work Paul.

[Nexus One Android Development] hypersonicx:
Album Art?

Anyone else have a problem with the album art not showing up in the HTC Music player? Normally all my songs have album art, but for some reason after upgrading to A8 none of the album art is picking up when playing music from any of my songs.

Does anyone else have this problem?
[Nexus One Android Development] kluemenadi:
unable to flash

i can't seem to flash alpha 8 onto my phone...had no problems with alpha 7 though.

when i try to flash it, it says:

E: failure at line 378

write_raw_image PACKAGE:boot.img BOOT:

Installation aborted.

any help?
[Nexus One Android Development] freezingfire:
same here..

someone plz help us..::confused:
[Nexus One Android Development] Henchman:
did you wipe dalvik cache and ext if you have one?
[Nexus One Android Development] kluemenadi:
i did a wipe of data/factory and dalvik-cache.
[Nexus One Android Development] Markdental:
I can't find the "Car Home" Navigation app...

Anyone?
[Nexus One Android Development] kluemenadi:
it's not on there...you can still use navigation through the stock maps app
[Nexus One Android Development] Vision77:
YOU ARE THE EFFIN MAN!!! That worked for me on BT headset....now to try it on my BT car stereo
[Nexus One Android Development] GodDriven:
Alpha 7 Or Alpha *8*....

Have you noticed that when first install the rom it says alpha 8 and then when you reboot (which it says when you look at it) it will say Alpha 7 and show sshd? passcode.. heh.. Just a looksie... :p

NICE! Thank You hah2110!!
[Nexus One Android Development] Vision77:
Yeah I peeped that....I am tempted to flash back to A7 just to see if BT worked with that Discovery on off trick:D
[Nexus One Android Development] Bad Ash:
Is anyone else having issues sending MMS messages alpha 8? Mine seem to hang on "pending" but people are reporting to me they are getting them. Just not looking that way on the phone.

I'm on AT&T. Flashed another ROM to make sure and it works fine.
[Nexus One Android Development] hkfriends:
In a8 the boot img is too large for certain phone
[Nexus One Android Development] a1t:
Gallery

Am I misunderstanding what is meant by: "•Gallery 3D app from Nexus One preinstalled (multitouch tested and working)"

I have the 'stock' gallery from Desire and not the one that originally came included in the N1 build.
[Nexus One Android Development] Bad Ash:
Both should be there.
[Nexus One Android Development] GodDriven:
This could be accessed by going into the camera and clicking on the Gallery and you'll see the gallery there... Now the regular 3d gallery is pre-installed in the Rom....

Yeah... That's the preinstalled...
[Nexus One Android Development] dahui9:
wow after playing with my phone for a couple of hours I'm wondering why this isn't a release candidate because its so smooth and fast.

I just wanted to say before without sense widgets I used only 2-3 screens on android now with the big sense apps I use all seven!

thanks again Paul!

[Nexus One Android Development] t2abousa:
I was able to get my headset to pair, but any time i try to connect it shows "connecting..." then the popup notification says "disconnected", anyone else seeing this? this headset paired fine with the n1 rom
[Nexus One Android Development] GodDriven:
Thiis is being worked out.. I believe it you flash the over clocked and undervolted kernal it all works well and should see the changes.. now, paul did state he made changes where bluetooth should work...
[Nexus One Android Development] t2abousa:
sorry to be such a dunce goddriven, can you elaborate as I am on the alpha 8 and assumed Paul made these changes after alpha 7, any further directions would be nice
[Nexus One Android Development] t2abousa:
while im complaining :p does anyones friend stream widget update when you press the bottom update bar, mine hangs, but the news one works wonderfully, thanks
[Nexus One Android Development] GodDriven:
This is what I speak of, He stated that this should work out the box, meaning as soon as you download... Alpha *8*. Now, I noticed that my bluetooth doesn't really pull it off as of yet, tested my Rocketfish Wrap Headphones, nothing, Audi, Nothing, My wifes Motorola H700 Headset and Dolce we're there.. So I didn't have to put a passcode..... Awkward....
[Nexus One Android Development] t2abousa:
ya i have the rocketfish ones too, it finds them but cant connect , oh well, i hope he was half joking about his 5 day vacation, he deserves it but i wish bluetooth is straitened out by anyone :)
[Nexus One Android Development] Jrbourque:
1. put device in pairing mode

2. hit scan for device , then right after you start scan, check the discoverable box.(your device should show up )

4. Now hit pair and right after UNCHECK discoverable it should succsefully pair . for some wierd reason toggling the discoverable box fixes pairing failure. did for me anyway

5. now just hit connect.
[Nexus One Android Development] GodDriven:
Dude, He deserves the vaction so bad it's not even funny... Now, I guess you can try to get the Overclocked and Undervolted and run it and see where it goes... This worked on Alpha 7, haven't tried on 8, cause it was supposed to be fixed..

I'm flashing it now for sciences sake... :eek:
[Nexus One Android Development] GodDriven:
Hey, i'm Dominican Too... I was born here but the familia is from the D.r. Wild joint over there, crazy i say... I am taking my Jamaican Wife over soon...

Google Reader Issues

Anybody else having issues with Google reader in the browser? When I view my feeds the page doesn't auto format to the screen and I have to scroll to the right to view the rest of the content on the page. Zooming out doesn't help as it just resets to how it was to begin with. I have tried different browsers and. that didn't help. When going back to a Nexus ROM I don't seem to have any issues. I know this is only an alpha release, just hoping someone has already figured this out.

And BTW big thanks to Modaco for porting this over. I have had a tremendous amount of fun with this ROM!
[Nexus One Android Development] celest:
I am not sure whether this is a bug. If add the calendar widget (the third one, next event, which is 4*1 scale) on home screen, there is always "loading" in the widget background. Any one got the same?
[Nexus One Android Development] grainysand:

I;ve also tried Market enabler no go again
[Nexus One Android Development] claritoz:
thanks paul for the update! everything is running smooth for me except

I am not able to get navigation to work properly. I was testing this out on the road and directions were not being given and the current street that i was driving on said it was unnamed.
[Nexus One Android Development] paulobrien:
Hah, oops, I missed updating 1 file, i'll do that today.

No, himem is working, you're confusing RAM with storage.

P
[Nexus One Android Development] paulobrien:
Well, yeah, but without a UK inbound number it's not that useful.

P
[Nexus One Android Development] paulobrien:
Strange, will look into that this morning!

P
[Nexus One Android Development] XZQ't:
I've tried a number of times and it did paired & connect (Jawbone Prime).

However, I can't hear anything in a phone call. So I guess BT still have issue for some users.

Now I just keep my fingers cross .. hope Pual can fix it soon.
[Nexus One Android Development] paulobrien:
Markets are not locate dependent. I'm looking into the missing apps issue.

P
[Nexus One Android Development] jlevy73:
Did you try the undervolted overclocked kernel. This will allow you to get BT back until Paul incorporates that fix into this ROM.
[Nexus One Android Development] inffy:
yep same problem here :/
[Nexus One Android Development] PiCkLeS:
No no im not, sorry :-)

Im in Advanced Task Manager and it still says 150-145MB free. More have the same problem both in this thread and the one "at your place"..

//P
[Nexus One Android Development] jlevy73:
What problem would that be?
[Nexus One Android Development] paulobrien:
Looking into the boot image problem, fix should be up soon.

re: himem, it's definitely working, I can't see a scenario where it would work on some devices and not others.

If you don't have himem, run 'adb shell free' and post the output.

P
[Nexus One Android Development] thalib_atc:
paul any chance that u can add OR post the nexus one stock contacts manager..

Himem working on mine DEFINITELY
[Nexus One Android Development] paulobrien:
Stock contacts i'll check out - low priority tho atm!

P
[Nexus One Android Development] grainysand:
Woo, thanks. I was just starting to panic.
[Nexus One Android Development] McFroger3:
Ahh, Ok thanks for enlightening me about that.
[Nexus One Android Development] XZQ't:
Yes , I'm on alpha 8 + boot.img from alpha 7 + undervolt kernel since I have boot.img flashing problem on original A8

I'll try flash zimage and push the ko file again just to make sure I did it right the last time.
[Nexus One Android Development] bluehaze:
Just installed A8 everything working great got voice search back now using android keyboard Thanks for all the hard work modaco this ROM is awesome! I love the Genie widget too so glad to see it back but wondering if there is anyway to make it transparent to match the HTC clock/weather widget?
[Nexus One Android Development] paulobrien:
Probably, just a nifty bit of Photoshop on the resources.

P
[Nexus One Android Development] jlevy73:
Did you update A8 with a different kernel within the last hour?
[Nexus One Android Development] paulobrien:
Status update

Alpha 9 uploading now. This can be flashed over the top of Alpha 8 without a wipe.

- oversized boot image: fixed in Alpha 9

- request for Car Home: included in Alpha 9

- incorrect version on about screen: fixed in Alpha 9

- request for 'stock contacts': not in base, may come in kitchen later today

- missing applications in market: slight build.prop tweaks in Alpha 9, but seems still not to be happy. Strange one - investigation continues.

- bluetooth issues: slight BT tweaks in Alpha 9, but still not working correctly. BT libraries seem significantly different in the Desire ROM, unknown if this will be fixed before next Beta drop.

- bootsound: I have removed the bootsound from Alpha 9, it will be an optional extra in the kitchen. It was annoying me. :)

- camera 3MP limit: reverse engineering the camera app shows it actually supports devices up to 8 Megapixels! On this basis, 5MP support could be possible before the next Beta drop.

- camera flash problem: as noted, N1 torch works so it's unlikely to be a base ROM issue. As the flash is being 'detected' (reverse engineering the code shows it supports non-flash devices), the problem is in the flash firing code. May not be fixed before next Beta drop.
