Partitioning

I take my SDHC card out of the phone and put it into a Belkin USB memory card reader attached via USB to my laptop; then I copy the contents off the Fat32 partition that I want to keep (mostly photos and ringtones and any ROM zip files) to my laptop in a folder named "G1 backup" and then I shutdown and reboot the laptop using a Gparted Live CD which boots Linux then the Gparted partition program; that program allows me to custom configure the size and type of each partition and is extremely easy to use; however, if you do follow my method be forewarned that any time you repartition like this you wipe out everything, which is what I actually prefer (to start from a clean slate). Also if you need to backup your Android apps first (before you even think of repartitioning) I recommend the Titanium Backup program from the Android Market (the free version works fine but remember to copy the Titanium folder [that houses the backup] to your laptop before you repartition). Once I repartition using Gparted, I simply reboot the laptop into Windows and then copy the contents of the "G1 Backup" folder back onto the Fat32 partition of the SDHC card; if I backed up apps I then download Titanium Backup from Market and then launch it and begin restoring apps.

I hope this helps!

This rom is becoming really great! If you could get the led and backlights interactions with the UI to work on the G1, I guess i`ll stick to this rom!

Hello Vegaman am using your rom and I must say it works very well.I ask if you can make when you receive a text message to turn on the LED as it does for calls missing.Last thing for the bluetooth? Sorry for the translation with google. Thanks.

[G1 Android Development] wcdisciple:
I initially did the same thing. But I suggest redoing everything minus the Apps patch. You don't need it. You have a G1. G1's don't need the patch. Although I read in this thread somewhere that you have to tweak the patch in order for it to work on g1's. I didn't tweak mine and it runs fine. I just have an internal memory issue. Do to the fact that the Legend takes up a lot of space on the phone.

But minus the patch and you should be fine. It works for me.

[G1 Android Development] sitimber:
ok place the zImage( remove the 2 from the start) into your sdk tools folder eaiser that way imo

open command navigate to sdk/tools and the reboot phone to fastboot back+power then in command

fastboot flash zimage zImage

hope this helps

Flashed this last night along with Firerat's a2sd with 128 swap and fat 32, it was very slow and slugish alot of fc's and loading screens.Restarted it several times also let it stay for a day but still was very unusebal.

Reflashed without ap2sd update now its smooth as butter. Preatty good compared to droideris alittle more speed would make it great. Gonna stick with this rom for a while.

Thanks alot vega for your great work. Firerat too :)
[G1 Android Development] maxon25:
cool nice one, sounds simple enough thanks, i'll give it ago. :-D
[G1 Android Development] maxon25:
Done it was very easy. now turning on the phone..... see how this runs now :-D

Big thanks!
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
makes no sense to me :)

here is what happens to an mt3g

sees its not trout, skips standard a2sd

checks each sd partition for swap, the first it finds, it sets up

checks if /data/app /data/app_s /data/app-private are symlinks

[*]if they are symlinks, mounts ext partition​

[*]checks size of /system/sd/app, app_s, app-private​

[*]if smaller than free space on /data, moves them to data and unmounts ext partition​

[*]if you have Loooaaaads of apps it just carries on and stays like a normal a2sd emulating a g1 with broken keyboard )​

exits, rest of Android starts

so nope, makes no sense, as a full wipe would do

sees its not trout, skips standard a2sd

checks each sd partition for swap, the first it finds, it sets up

checks if /data/app /data/app_s /data/app-private are symlinks ( they are not )

exits, rest of Android starts

been using this rom 0.9 with 0.9.1 fix and FireratModified-a2sd-2-1-1_S all day today and me phone ran ok, i didnt have many problems it just took alittle while to go from different apps, weather, youtube, to camera etc so lagged abit at times but now i used the King 8 Kernel everything seems to run loads better :-D

Great work, Top rom!... LIKE IT!
[G1 Android Development] sitimber:
you lost me on the second part

do i have a nodanger update for this rom to try??
[G1 Android Development] Hosern1:
i see, well i really dont know, i did the way your instructions go, wiped before flashing, repartitioned and then wiped again and then flashed, didnt work. Same happend when i tryed to flash kings version along with you patch, maybe my magic is a weird one :P
[G1 Android Development] maxon25:
I have vodafone magic with 2gb sdcard and works fine for me. i was coming from 1.6 donut, i done full wipe, partitioned sdcard fat32, 196mb swap, 512mb ext 2 converted to ext3 then to ext 4, turned on usb, connected usb lead, dragged over rom 0.9, 0.9.1 fix, FireratModified-a2sd-2-1-1_S, King 8Kernel all to sdcard, flashed 0.9, once flashed let it fully boot up (can take a while as can the 3g or H to show up at the top). Once all set up, i turned off, went back into recovery, flashed 0.9.1fix without wipe, Full boot up, back to recovery, flashed FireratModified-a2sd-2-1-1_S, done full boot, back to recovery to flash FR-KingKernel-No8-Update_S, then full boot and it should run fine.

It may sound long winded and maybe the long or wrong way to do it but it worked for me and now this rom runs spot on.
[G1 Android Development] sitimber:
and the wifi works??
[G1 Android Development] Hosern1:
if you want to follow that way and flash kings kernel #8 use this no wipe update http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6106664&postcount=814

i just flashed it and bummer no more fullscreen weather animations :o i really loved them, and yes wifi works.

also kings #8 has cpu over clocked to max so your battery will go faster, if you want to reduce to default download setcpu.

almost the same what i did, but thanks for those steps, i just set up current version and its a hassle backing everything up and flashing again, i think i might stick to this for a while as im happy with the way it runs. Ill be sure to follow your steps next time i flash.
[G1 Android Development] kboater:
im running this vega rom, and its running great right now. i have not used kings new kernel yet.

quick dumb question:

what is the difference between the legend rom and the droid eris rom? i know king made one of each, and vega has based this off legend rom, but whats the difference between eris and legend as they are both 2.1 sense roms...? (yes i realize they were 2 diff phones)

thanks
[G1 Android Development] Hosern1:
the eris is a little older 2.1 sense, and the legend is like the newer version.

What i mean my older is the sense ui images are same as any other hero rom where the legend ones are kinda newere polished more darker look. Also the legend has few new app interfaces like phonebook and some other one i cant remeber now.

Those are preatty much the big differences, i had the eris one for around 3 weeks and was happy with it as everything was working, this rom is alittle bit more slower but it is still good. I think i might go back to that one in the end in terms of stability unless legend ones becomes as stable as the eris.

Hope that kinda explained.
[G1 Android Development] kboater:
it did,

thanks

Had a strange issue today. Rebooted and found that Camera and Camcorder were removed from the app drawer. Also noted that my shortcut to camera wasn't working and said it was no longer installed. Located HTCCamera.apk using root explorer, hit install, and got an error that it couldn't parse the package. Hooked up to adb to reinstall it, and now it's back. Thought I would post in case anyone has the same issue.

i know incoming call lag has been issues on most 2.1's. how ever im having really, really bad incoming call lag with this right now. like its about to go to voice mail before it registers

[G1 Android Development] dudebro:
I can't remember what version of this ROM it was but there was no incoming call lag... possibly 0.2.5?

Yeah, I gave up after 0.2.5. Still gotta say thanks to vega for this ROM though.
[G1 Android Development] damngood98:
but you're on a g1. what are you using to fix the call lag?
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
CacheHack, but you have an mt3g , you do not need to use ext partitions"

flash my a2sd, wait for it to copy off the slow sd to internal memory

your phone will be faster, with any g1 rom..........
[G1 Android Development] djdeviance:
Not really too sure if the patch worked. I'm seeing this from busybox df -h.

/system 99%

/data 28%

/cache 1%

/system/sd 19%

I'm on a mt3g and I still have the ext4 setup. Also I flashed .09 then .091 reinstalled apps. Then flashed firerats a2sd patch. So dunno if that would make a diff.
[G1 Android Development] kboater:
thanks,

so do i just flash this over rom?
[G1 Android Development] DanGrover:
Hi there!

I flashed .91 over the top of king's 1.1.1 to get the camera and youtube working and it worked an absolute treat! Thanks! The only problem is that a bunch of my widgets have gone missing. Htc clock, settings, bookmarks, twitter. Any ideas?
[G1 Android Development] fxone:
Can you upload the German Language files ?
[G1 Android Development] djdeviance:
Use Custom Locale I believe the german pack is there.
[G1 Android Development] fxone:
thx a lot.

But ihave Tomatoes on the Eyes the German Language is on the Setup Screen. :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] wcdisciple:
Here's an idea....

You know the drill w/ the wiping and all that. All you need to do now is flash Vega's vo.9 then flash v0.9.1 over it. Should work like a charm. Widgets and all.

For everyone experiencing lag w/ the apps, calls, etc., just do a

"few"

reboots. You guys have to remember what we're working with here. This is a very big ROM. Also find apps that will help to optimize performance.

Auto Memory Manager helps.

Setcpu helps.

There are scripts.

There are cache hacks. And a few other things you can do. You can't just totally count on the ROM itself. If you have a lot of apps like I do, you have to let everything marinade for a bit. Reboot. Let it sit. Try it out. Maybe reboot. Let it sit.

For me, this ROM is tighter than a virgins nookie. :cool: :D :cool:

I don't care about the 3D animation's so I'm gonna try king's #8 soon. See if I can get it to be even more responsive, you know. Just like I'd do if it was some real nookie. Keep playing w/ it. See what kind of response I get. F*ck wit it til it does exactly what I want it to do. :cool:
[G1 Android Development] wcdisciple:
Or you could reboot and see what happens. :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
yeah, had the same problem myself a good few times, this has solved it for me, well most times

rm -rf /data/data/com.htc.launcher/*
killall -HUP com.htc.launcher

not all that 'surgical', it just removes all the launcher settings, and restarts the launcher in the hopes it rebuilds the settings with the widgets

My theory is that Launcher becomes available before Android has finished processing the widgets.

yeap, my modified a2sd can be flashed at any time ( after the main ROM is flashed ;) best to do last , just in case any incremental updates replace a2sd, which tbh is unlikely )
[G1 Android Development] crodgers79:
Some good results for our lonely G1s!!

Hey guys,

Just some real-world RESULTS:

Wipe everything (fully wipe)

My 16Gb Class6 SDHC card setup: 3 partitions - 13Gb Fat32, 850Mb Ext4, 133Mb Linux-swap

Apply Vega's v0.9.1 zip file then do NOT reboot

Apply Vega's Youtube fix found on page 1 but do NOT reboot

Apply Firerat's custom zip which includes Kings #8 Kernel and the wi-fi fix (the link is found a few pages back) THEN AND ONLY THEN REBOOT and give it time to load (mine took about 8-10 minutes to finally load everything and settle down to the point to where I could use Market and begin downloadin and installing apps.

Initial amount of internal memory free after installing using this method is 31Mb. I downloaded and installed about 20 apps from Market and my internal memory went down to 12Mb but the up-side is that since everything is running from the much faster internal memory, the thing is actually snappy! The down-side is after opening and closing about 10 apps (after installing, to test them) my phone shutdown probably due to insufficient memory. I rebooted it and it's been fine ever since!

This thing is now fully usable for daily use! Finally it doesn't move like molasses in January and is fairly snappy! Yeah! Of course Bluetooth and LEDs don't work but for the Sense UI I'll gladly give them up!

Great job Vega, Firerat and those who recommended this configuration.

kings kernel #8 improves stability by sum degree! now this feels really fast until I notice apps not closing after I exit them, have to use advance task manager every now and then to make it fast again. does editing the windows animations and transition anamations settings in spare parts actually make any difference with this rom?

that's only for visual effects

the a2sd isn't going to make any difference to a g1 on a Legend, the dalvik-cache is just too big..

Maybe I can improve things a little in a2sd 2.3

firerat's a2sd

Howdy fans of vega legend. I've been looking around trying to find firerat's a2sd so I can flash it to my G1, but have yet to find it. I'm now at a point where I can't install anymore apps because of limited space. My SD card is partitioned with a 128 MB swap and at least 600 MB or so of storage for the apps. Even tried the "Move apps to sd" command, which didn't work. It's weird because it worked fine on every rom I've tried so far, except for King's Legend. Any directions to the download would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

oh, drop the 'adb shell' if your on terminal emulator

( and email output , save as draft then copy n paste from googlemail web ;) )

and tbh , my a2sd isn't going to do anything for you on a legend ROM,

the current version tries to keep dalvik-cache on /data, which is good for g1's on standard eclair ROMs, but with Legend it simply gets too big.

I have some ideas on getting around this, but haven't started them yet
