hopefully that will clear up a lot of confusion ( I hope it doesn't cause more ;) )

as with Cache Hack, this should be used by All Devs

Oh, and mt3gs, should use my NoDangerSPL Cache hacks, at least untill I write some smart post install scripts to take advantage of the masses of space you guys have

90mb system + 80mb cache = 170mb system files !!!!

my NoDangerSPLs Cache Hack assume 67mb system + 67mb cache

and

my DangerSPLs Cache Hack assumes 90mb system + 30MB Cache Hack

:) NoneDanger now has 14mb more on system than Danger ;)

( NB all numbers a (ish) some roundings and no fs overhead taken into account )

check it out! I noticed some new widget styles, and it looks insanely smooth on his 32a... mebbe vega should port this one!
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
The only difference I noticed is the friendstream widget.... and even then it's just a different pic. And you must remember that 32A's have Sense natively (and having 96mb more ram helps)
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
yea I know.
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
If you want the new widget I'll gladly put a metamorph together to change the icon, other than that though, basing it off of that is useless.

However, he has been known to fix a lot of things (in fact I think it was you who posted his 3D Launcher2 here), I'm sure he will be able to get Live Wallpapers working if he tries really hard.
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
ok sounds good.
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
You want the MetaMorph, ok let me download the rom*

*When it is available of course
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
thanks bro I love the time you spend for the android community :) I just don't have it.
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
Has vega given up on this rom?

Nice rom there by jcarrz1..looks very smothe
[G1 Android Development] Viper87227:
Wondering the same. King's legend rom will not work on my phone. This one does, and it seems to work fairly well.
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
Not yet ;) , last week of uni before the holidays got a bit busy. But I've got lots of free time now so I'm back to catching up with all the updates since I last read through.
[G1 Android Development] smjfosho:
Yay! I switched over to kings because I wanted something so hopefully your update is amazing, which it probably will be ;)
[G1 Android Development] theronw68:
Could you make one with firerats patch for magic users? Pretty please?
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
Could you point me to the right one? Then I'll look into it.

Edit: Oh you mean for no a2sd? I did upload a no-wipe patch (to be flashed before the first reboot) to my 4shared when I uploaded 0.3, but I was trying to compare the performance between the options before I uploaded it here.
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
Ok, I'm testing an unfinished update now, it should fix the graphical glitches, and then I'll work on the dark video. I'll also look into firerat's a2sd patch and could possibly include it.

Edit: It seems that either a long uptime (I didn't reboot in at least 6 days) or not having a2sd was causing major call delay (I never actually managed to answer a call), but with a2sd on it's working much better. I'll look into this more. Also, graphical problems are fixed, few more things to work on.
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
lol, enjoy ;)
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
I have been running your rom 0.3 since it came out(awesome) and I did get a call lag at first.

But once somebody called the next time they did it came up with out lag?

The only get FCs I get is with settings i.e APN so far.

Looking forward to the camera fix and maybe footprints added?

Thanks vega ;)
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
Unfortunately I'm away from my computer for a couple of days now. My friends band had room in their car so going on a short tour with them.

anyway, that apn problem is easy enough to fix. For now you can use apn backup and restore to remove all the apn's. It doesn't like the massive list, so I could switch to a smaller one but more people would have to manually add them.

Also, what I've done of the updates working nicely so far.
[G1 Android Development] Viper87227:
Just a quick bug I observed, the alarm clock seems to be a bit messed up. When it goes off, it will sometimes flash the "slide to dismiss" screen, and then automatically snooze and go off again 5 minutes later.

My alarm went off about 6 times this morning before I got it to shut up ;)
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
Ok dude...Have fun..and grab all the girls cus your a roadie now :D

Root htc magic

Hi

I had a G1 and now i have got my self a Magic.

Can some1 point me in the right direction to load this rom. had it on the G1 and it was awesome. Now i want it on my Magic but after searching and reading a lot of posts i am not sure where i should begin.

If some1 can help me a little or guide me a bit then i would appreciate.

Thanks in advance.
[G1 Android Development] baadsha:
ok done some work myself and managed to get to what signature says now.

can some1 advise what i need to do now to get this rom to work?
[G1 Android Development] baadsha:
as you can also see from my signature. i have finally cracked it. took me an age but hey all done now. running this sweet rom. loving it.
[G1 Android Development] speedysilwady:
speaking of firerat, i think your rom would be a lot faster and more people will be able to use it if you reorganize your rom like this:

/\ second that vega impliment firerats hack into your rom would be the real deal
[G1 Android Development] hitmanassasin21:
how can fix the camara is very dark!!!!!:(:(:(:(:(:(
[G1 Android Development] speedysilwady:
oh and vega, i think firerat mentioned using some libs from an eris dump to fix the dark videos and stuff but im not sure. =]
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
Back online and hungover, but yeah, that's what I was planning on doing.
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
Looking forward to your update dude :)
[G1 Android Development] WebghostDK:
I'm requesting some help over MSN/Gtalk.

No matter what version of this ROM i flash, my Market fails to load up.

Seems like im the only one with this prob :/
[G1 Android Development] kenny111008:
why do i always get constant f/c on htc sense launcher on both this and kings legend roms?? it makes the roms unusable and it only happens when i reboot or change scenes. any ideas on what to do????
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
Is it actually force closing or does it give you a wait option? Might be out of memory.

The update's progressing now, I might just add everything in again, but if some things were taken out framework would fit on /system now.
[G1 Android Development] speedysilwady:
did you consider using firerat's cachehack i mentioned earlier? It adds more 30mb more to system for guys with danger spl and it adds 60mb for guys with non-danger, that way everything should fit (i think he mentioned having a couple apks on the sdcard for a legend rom but idr)
[G1 Android Development] kenny111008:
it acty force closes then loads the htc screen then f/c again over and over. i dont think its a memory thing because i even tried not restoring any of my apps(via backup for root) and the samething occurs. ive tried all different swap and ext sizes and nothing. =/
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
Yeah, it's on my list of things to try. I'm happy sticking where I'm at for now though as I have a perfectly working camcorder (only at 320x240, not sure if these phones can actually do better though).

I've looked at the footprints problem as well. It's a simple problem, the app is requesting a 240x240 preview which the camera/camera libs do not support - but I'm not sure it would be a simple fix.
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
Will you release something today vega?

So far so good with this rom :)
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
I'm hoping to :)

I've got a couple more things I want to do (fixing the dark video is one of them), then I'll look into Firerats cache hack.
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
I take it this was on a G1?

As I have just tried the backup and got "Error Nandroid-mobile.sh" via console

what ever that means lol
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
That is odd, how long did you leave it sitting trying to boot? Did logcat stop reporting anything?
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
It freezes at the Audio: blah Stream 9

Mine was there for a good 5min.
[G1 Android Development] protomanez:
With the zip file I sat there for a good 20 minutes then pulled the battery as it did not boot. I did not record a logcat for the boot with the nandroid. I can do this if you want.
[G1 Android Development] Cal-El:
The backup was done on a mytouch 3G. I dont know what phone he has.
[G1 Android Development] protomanez:
Yeah I did it on a G1.
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
I will try the zip file as the nadroid backup failed.
[G1 Android Development] Cal-El:
What the heck! Why are HTC phones all so different from eachother? Same hardware but all different results. :confused:
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
nandroided it:) with the file posted and boot up just fine

in less than 5 min
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
It cant be my SPL as I have flashed all the hero roms so far with out problems.

I am just waiting for the zip file to download.

EDIT= HBOOT 1.33.2005 (DREA11000)..RADIO 2.22.23.02 Does that look ok?
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
top stops at: (last line)

13 0% S 1 OK OK fg root detection/o

or, in top's constant printing, the last line is:

13 0% S 1 OK OK fg root kthreadd

they seem to alternate. trying nandroid now
[G1 Android Development] :
Dude. How long should it take for the Bootup because I'm stuck on the G1 Screen after Wiping all but EXT4 and Flashing onto Danger SPL and Latest Radio?
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
I was meaning with the zip, I was wondering if it was still booting, but after 20 minutes I'll assume it wasn't.
[G1 Android Development] Cal-El:
I have 1.33.2005. What does everyone else have?
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
The nandroid works for me. I am about to test the renicing script (I've never had problems with it but w/e), and I may add my customized version (Gives priorities to the IME and Rosie)
[G1 Android Development] protomanez:
You assumed right then. xD
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
It should be running by default, I already edited it a tiny bit as it was a little messy before.

Running tethered at the moment as uni wifi coverage is crap so I can't use much data. I'll have to have a better look at home to work out what the MT3G is doing that the G1 isn't.
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
how does speed compare to your eris? I know it's not comparable, but can you click on apps at the same time and compare load?

Also, deuse, I use your same radio/spl and I have the problem with the zip, the nandroid is still copying to my SD, so I'll have to test that.
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
HBOOT 1.33.2005 (DREA11000)..RADIO 2.22.23.02 Does that look ok?

The zip or the nandroid backup don't work :confused:
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
Oh, I guess I should've been more specific with "test". I meant I am going to call myself and see if it lags a lot.
[G1 Android Development] baadsha:
Awesome

Cant wait especially if it will incorporate the Firerats cache hack.

[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
Yup, they're fixed. Still working on a few more things before I upload it though.
[G1 Android Development] speedysilwady:
awesome! good luck bro, looking forward to it =]
[G1 Android Development] chickenz88:
and will dark camera be fixed in this update....?
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
I haven't found a fix for that yet. The photo's it takes (and the videos now) look fine when I look at them on my computer though.
[G1 Android Development] enemeone:
vega think you will have an update today? :)
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
Not sure really, I wanted to upload it yesterday, but I want to make sure more things are fixed before I do.
[G1 Android Development] enemeone:
cant wait :) been running since you put it out great rom awesome work
[G1 Android Development] chickenz88:
yea.....waiting 4 a long time :) hope u will release it soon....btw, when see photo taken by Camera in Photos it's normal, only error when Preview, Preview after take and thumbnail....
[G1 Android Development] kenny111008:
so is there any idea how i can flash this rom or a future version of it w.o these htc sense force closes
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
I'm not sure what's causing those FC's since I haven't had them, having a look at logcat and the output of commands like free and df could help.

Anyway, finally squeezed the framework into /system, it seems to run quite nicely like that, but I had to sacrifice all the languages, there could be ways around that, but it could be a bit of work.

Trying to work out now what will fit on a G1, how much space do you guys have on /data? Assuming dangerspl.
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
Mine is 160MB swop 715MB for my appstoSD. I don't changing it to test the rom dude.
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
I meant how big is the phones internal /data partition? I'm trying to work out what will fit on there on the G1.

Re: [WIP-ROM] vega Legend port BETA V0.3

isnt there around 256 of ROM?
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
Sorry dude I must wake up :)

Taken from HTC- ROM: 256 MB RAM: 192 MB I hope that's what you wanted to know?
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
Update posted.

The main issues I haven't got fixed are dark video and youtube hq not working. I did get youtube hq working, but it broke the camcorder, so I might have to fiddle and see if both can be made to work.

Footprints isn't working because the camera/driver won't supply a 240x240 preview that footprints requests.
[G1 Android Development] enemeone:
vega any special install instructions for update?
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
Just a normal flash for this one, as usual the first boot will take a while though.
[G1 Android Development] enemeone:
its not a no wipe is it?
[G1 Android Development] da0ne:
does it included firerat a2sd script for the 32b
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
It's still using a2sd (but only for apps and system apps now), I can add a no-wipe update to the first post that works with no ext partition though if you want?

I haven't actually looked much into Firerat's new developments yet, and didn't want to add them without understanding them.
[G1 Android Development] da0ne:
thats cool i still have his addon i'll give it a try to see if it work

great work either way keep it up
[G1 Android Development] chickenz88:
Finally u updated :D Why 0.3 to 0.9? I'm downloading n will feedback later.Thnx Vegaman for ur work.
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
Yeah lol, few reasons for the jump. The main one being it was getting a bit confusing keeping track of all the versions I was testing, so I had to keep changing the names of the new ones. I also hope this is closer to a v1.0, which I'd want to have proper working video and possibly some other fixes.

vega, if I was having the sense FC's will this update fix that? I love the legend rom, but could only use it until I rebooted, and then the sense would FC over and over. please say yes, so i can use legend again.
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
Here's a no-wipe update http://www.4shared.com/file/258254504/8af0774b/legend-netherlands-signed.html

Fingers crossed there's enough room for it, if not I can try editing the update to remove the english locale.
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
can you dump it to /data/ and symlink it in?

or even dump to /data and have a postinstall script remove the old locales and move the new one into place?

mind, its just 124k, so it won't really impinge on data

show_progress 0.1 0
copy_dir PACKAGE:system DATA:
symlink /data/etc/WP_0413NLD.db SYSTEM:etc/WP_0413NLD.db
show_progress 0.2 0

good work as always
[G1 Android Development] davidrol:
A few observations

Vega: I've noticed a fair amount of overall improvements after flashing Firerat's cache hack. This is nothing less than a major improvement in the ROM's usability. It takes a while at first, for reasons unknown to me, then it runs much smoother and snappier, for sure. I think his development is under observed and deserves a few more tweaks to make your ROM even better.

Still no English (United States) Think I'll wait for an 0.9 version including Firerat's cache hack.

Also, I've read in a previous post concerning the addition of various locales may crimp the storage budget. I now use an app called More Locale 2 found in the Market. More Locale 2 has many standard and custom locales built right in, including several English locales.

I hope this helps, Cheers

rebooting now and then do some more testing.

ok can someone plz tell me how to flash kings kernel #8 using the console or terminal emulator?
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
ah,

no flash_image bin in the legend

push it from another ROM, never had any problems with that myself

or , in recovery console ( assuming you have unzipped to root of sdcard )

mount /sd<tab>
fl<tab> boot /sd<tab>Kin<tab>

man I'm sooo lazy......

<tab> is alt then q, gets you around faster ;)

if one <tab> doesn't do anything, do a second to get list of 'paths'

if your in a normal android, and <tab> just does , well a normal tab

curse.....

get a new shell with

ash

that knows about tab completion
[G1 Android Development] lightninbug:
wow thats a lot of <tabs> nevertheless... i am still confused...there isnt a simple way to do it like your gscript method?
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
recovery console

mount -a
flash_image boot /sdcard/Kings-no8_CHRD.img

is as simple as it gets

the <tab>s would save you quite a bit of typing
