[G1 Android Development] zenstitution:
you dont need it, but ive noticed improvements in my g1 while running it. i would just try using the order from my previous post first, maybe set swap to 128mb, and see if that works first. but if you need it;
[G1 Android Development] maxon25:
cheers. Do i install this like i would a rom? also do i install this first before the rom?
[G1 Android Development] zenstitution:
flash rom then flash the script.
[G1 Android Development] maxon25:
(without fire rat) i done in this order

Full Wipe

Partition (swap set to 128bm)

Repair ext

Upgrade ext2-ext3

Upgrade ext3-ext4

Flash

its still at vodafone boot logo and been there for 4 mins.
[G1 Android Development] zenstitution:
it can take up to 15mins, just dont touch it and if you can get a logcat.
[G1 Android Development] maxon25:
ok i'll leave it and see what happens, then i'll report back. Thanks for your help.
[G1 Android Development] zenstitution:
no prob. if you're still having problems getting a logcat will help a bunch.
[G1 Android Development] maxon25:
Yeah still stuck on vodafone boot log
[G1 Android Development] maxon25:
when loading CaNNoN202-CompleteEclair-v2.0 i notice it takes longer to install before reboot and it goes to nexusone logo bout 10 seconds after vodafone logo but this rom seems to install very quick like its not the right size file and gets stuck on boot logo
[G1 Android Development] zenstitution:
did you try it with the firerats script yet? if you can you need to logcat so we can see where its messing up. adb shell then logcat.

[G1 Android Development] iconrider:
no ext partition or swap

Some help please,

I cant seem to get this to work with my ext4 partition or swap, neither show after installing this ROM. I've tried reformatting, reflashing and even a different sd card and nothing works. The Rom runs fine once booted but slow and I'm unable to turn on compcache, swap or load more then a few apps without getting a low memory warning. I've also tried using ext2&3 with the same result

Help please
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
you need to do rwsystem or mount -a
[G1 Android Development] dekthaitp:
thank you

mount -a is working

But why do I have to turn off my phone. Use more than 10 minutes, it still does not close , I have to remove the battery, instead of waiting off.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
you need to reboot if you plan on changing the font and want the new one to take affect
[G1 Android Development] zole2112:
I'm lovin this rom...hoping for a speed increase. Is there a Terminal app that works with this, my Terminal Emulator FC's.

Bug Reporting

Just wanted to point out some bugs I'm having with ROM, i'm using 1.1.1, 8gb class 6 sdhc, 512 mb ext4, 192 linux swap

Sometimes I receive an SMS from one person and it shows up as if it came from another person. Also texts that i send out show up as if i sent them to someone else. (gave me a big scare lol)

Streaming video- youtube app plays in really low quality, W.TV and SPBTV (both are live tv apps) dont work. going to the youtube site and playing videos via htc flash player works alright

Camera takes pictures in black & white and the screen is too dark to really see what youre taking a picture of

This is definitely a great quality ROM, suitable for everyday use. I just wish i had a working camera/camcorder, that would make my life so much happier. Thanks king!
[G1 Android Development] kenny111008:

I don't suppose anyone in this thread has found a fix for the dark video problem yet?

It seems like it might end up being a lot of trial and error :(
[G1 Android Development] Garner:
Eatin more carrots seems to work! im using ur rom n n kings i have got urs flying on my g1 it really is fast due to the help of autostarts stopping certain services after boot and using phone renicer to help with the calls to my g1
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
I got no where with it :(

its not a codec issue ( least I don't think it is )

so I'm going to look at the drivers, and the framework

Hi, just got this rom to load and i keep getting htc sense force close and have to pull battery out to turn off. any fix for this comming?
[G1 Android Development] Babyface1249:
Definitely just tried to flash the new kernel. Rebooted and got to green mytouch screen, in the upper left it said fastboot usb (which it has never done before, ever.) and it freezes. That's if it's plugged into usb. If not, it just freezes. Want to try it out but am kinda frustrated since I've flashed a dozen kernels in the past and never had a hiccup.
[G1 Android Development] Garner:
New kernal?

My Bluetooth not working

Can't turn on bluetooth

help me
[G1 Android Development] Garner:
Bluetooth will not work, same with any other legend or hero rom dont think they will ever sort that issue out
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
I keep reading that bluetooth doesn't work on Hero ROMs

maybe its true, I don't know I never use bluetooth
[G1 Android Development] romerovallin:
I know how to flash this but how do I make it work so my apps are saved to the sd card and giving me more internal memory??
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
I've tried to get it working, after working things out it's easy enough to turn bluetooth on, but not within the GUI, so it's pretty much useless.
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
it probably because the system apps are on SD card, with the mt3g they should still be on data ( if configured correctly )

the CacheHacked Legends I did don't have this problem as I have got practically all the system apps on /system

it could also be the swap, the Legend needs a big swap, 128+

but in any case system apps on system is a good thing ( and Ironically its easier to do with NoneDangerSPL )
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
we make a script for that :)

then an app :) :)
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
Automatic !!!! ( if you have an ext partition )

what phone do you have? please don't say mt3g cos I will likely shout at you.

mt3g as 290mb on data , should be plenty for your apps, why slow your phone down putting apps on SD? what are you going to use the free internal memory for if its not for apps/dalvik-cache?
[G1 Android Development] dekthaitp:
oh , if working please ask me .
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
At some point I did make a script that turns the bluetooth on. But the problem is that the Sense UI roms use btipsd to communicate with the bluetooth, and btipsd isn't working right on the G1/32B. It powers the bluetooth on, but hit's an error trying to communicate with it, and then dies. If you start the bluetooth first it goes into a loop of errors.
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
I take it just dropping a g1 compatible bin it its place doesn't work

are the g1 bluetooth kernel device files different between g1 and Hero?

can we just symlink, or is the api incompatible?
[G1 Android Development] romerovallin:
Oh okay. If I set my Swap to 128 what should my ext size be for it to work?? I have a black G1...lol... I just thought it might make my phone faster if I had more internal memory since the G1's is so low.
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
If we had on it might work :p

I haven't looked into the kernel much, but we're missing at least one device node. So somewhere (quite far down for now) on my list of things to do is compare HTCs Hero/Legend/whatever source to ours to see if there's something there.
[G1 Android Development] maxon25:
Hi can anyone get HQ youtube on this rom?
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
If it's not working currently in this rom it can be made to work, but there's still the dark video problem.
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
well, you need apps on SD with G1, because the internal is so low :)

I have ext at 512mb, which is plenty, depends on how many apps you have

since apps are going to SD card, you have free space on /data/

my modified a2sd script is not only mt3g friendly , but for g1 users it will try to keep dalvik-cache on /data ( when free is below 10mb it moves dalvik-cache to sd )

I figure might as well use the fast internal memory for dalvik byte code.

OE is using /cache for Dalvik-cache ( but they haven't turned off the bind mount in a2sd )

but that is actually not going to last as long, cache is only 30mb on DangerSPL)

NoneDanger is better off, with 67mb cache, but they can only use small ROMs

I can get my modified a2sd to be smarter and use /cache if its available ( i.e. not a cache hack build )

I have to do some patching in a2sd, specifically the a2sd part, which I haven't touched yet, it shouldn't need to 'look out' for ROMs without a mount point for the ext partition, but its easy to do, so I'll do that at the same time.

none of it is critical , so no rush

just had some other ideas for cache hack
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
:) I was assuming a standard dream rom called a bin in the same way

assuming the api was the same the g1 bin would talk to the correct /dev files

I might be totally wrong, not looked at bluetooth at all
[G1 Android Development] dekthaitp:
Camera is super dark
[G1 Android Development] bunu:
turn the light on in the room you are in.

The camera works perfectly fine for me.
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
really? your camera and video Playback not dark?

what rom were you on last?

did you flash this over that without wiping?

do you want to try the camera and video playback again?
[G1 Android Development] bunu:
I don't even bother with the camcorder and video playback since this is a 2.1 rom. The camera works, I took a picture and I viewed it in the gallery. It is working.

Why would it matter what rom I was on last!!! I ALWAYS wipe EVERYTHING when switching ROMs.
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
because you say that you do not have dark camera

we have had video playback for a long time now, it half works with this ROM

but its dark..

the last ROM was important, as if you didn't wipe then some settings hung around and fixed the video being dark

I like your diligence with the wipe thing, but honestly it isn't always needed, at the most just delete /data/data/

Wipes are only needed if the Dev can't fit the system apps on system, so they dump to your slow sd card ( via /data/app_s and a2sd ), which ,, ,well ok with this rom you probably need to delete /data/data to make space for it but at least you don't have to go through the signup and downloading/restoring your apps,, again...

and I did all that WITHOUT CAPS , oh sorry... never mind

[G1 Android Development] MotoMudder77:
From Kings twitter. And he also says that it'll work with Legend.

make sure that you rename the file from "(2)zImage" to "zImage"

"just put it on the root of your sdcard and in terminal do: flash_image boot /sdcard/zImage"

I am about to flash right now.
[G1 Android Development] chabsie:
that has also happened to me. its so unpredictable, ive had to reflash twice now bc of that. i have no idea what causes it
[G1 Android Development] enatefox:
Don't push Espresso's lock screen or you will get some bad errors and it froze my phone twice. Instead, here's my updated MetaMorph theme. Feel free to just grab the pics or edit as you want. Any help or updates are welcome. Almost everything is ported over and I added some other graphics here and there. Rosie and the Lockscreen look just like Espresso except the ugly bubbles and I kept the screen indicator stock as well because I think it looks nicer. It's not complete; I'm redoing the status bar background and I'll theme the dialer to match too.
[G1 Android Development] MotoMudder77:
Just tried to flash the new kernal. hung @ android screen, luckily I backed up first.
[G1 Android Development] chabsie:
under settings--> sound and display, theres an option called "quiet ring on pickup." disable it

whats ever this supposed new king kernal is it isnt compatible with the legend phone sits at g1 screen

yeah gave it a couple hours..no one relly responded with any help... I even messages king on twitter...no response...o well
[G1 Android Development] nobleach:
yeah, he's on his way to San Diego. Hope you did a nandroid backup first. I flashed it just to see what was up. Get a fastboot USB in the upper corner. Doesn't even get to where a logcat is possible so it's looking like it flat out doesn't even get too far past POST.

Contacts stopped syncing?!

Hello,

I really like this ROM but I have a problem:

the contacts of my Google (apps) Mail Account (primary Google Account at my phone and the other one is not configured to sync contacts) are not synchronized since 4 days now.

I deleter the data from Contacts storage but it did not change anything - the contacts were synced on time, that's all.

Any idea/solution? Would be great!
[G1 Android Development] Babyface1249:
Why would king upload a raw kernel not packaged with a ramdisk? This has pretty much rendered it useless, unless anyone has found a fix, which doesn't seem to be the case up to this point. Love king's work, but all this hype about his #8 kernel, and then he released it in a form that no one can use. Can't wait until someone gets it to boot
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
I duno, but I just posted to the wrong thread, lol

anyway , yes its a raw kernel

is it for the Legend?

I can pack with his ramdisk ,+ the poweroff fix
[G1 Android Development] Babyface1249:
No idea if it will even work on the legend. I guess I just assumed it would. It would be nice if king had provided just a tad bit more detail when he released it, but oh well. For now I'll just sit tight
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
well, from what I read everyone has just been flashing it

its just a raw kernel, no ramdisk

anyway, its here, with The Legend Ramdisk I fixed in Post 606 ( poweroff fix )
[G1 Android Development] vegaman:
Never mind
[G1 Android Development] enatefox:
firerat, can you post how the performance is; did you test it? I wonder if it's speed or 3D or a Nexus kernel..

Also, protip: in recovery you can go to the "flash" menu and it will mount the whole system as long as you stay on that screen. Once I flash the 3 files I can push over replacement files (like Qteknology's bootanimations or my themed apps). That way you don't have to mess with resigning the update although it's easy. I've noticed this build is really unstable when core files are swapped with Dalvik-cache in place so modifying before first boot is easier. Or maybe that's just my experience.
[G1 Android Development] Babyface1249:
Well when I tried to flash the raw kernel it wouldn't let me boot and would say fastboot usb on the splash screen. Will give yours a try in a bit when I'm home. Seems like you always have a solution, nice work.
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
lulz, I like that phrasing... "always have a solution"...

nope, didn't test, just packed it

I have also have a protip

Push2sd sometarball.tar

nice. any tips for wifi?
[G1 Android Development] speedysilwady:
im no dev nor do i have any devving experience but maybe you can push wlan.ko from king's eris?
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
no idea,

a zImage was floating around, I pointed out on Sunday that it was just a kernel, but seems everyone has been flashing it over and over

so I packed it for them, so at least it boots

no idea where the wlan.ko is

and I don't know why people get so excited over kernels
[G1 Android Development] nobleach:
Oh come on man, you can't tell me the first time you did a make menuconfig on linux you weren't excited if it actually compiled and booted.... lol.
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
well if you just fastboot boot zImage, it works by inserting a ramdisk for you, but the wlan.ko is still missing...
[G1 Android Development] nobleach:
I guess the thing is, if he said he had a performance optimized kernel.... like who knows, maybe he stripped it down to bare metal compiled the drivers right in instead of making them modules and took some scary flags.... I can say that if most people hear the promise of a speed gain, they're going to try and take it.

What I'd like to see is if someone actually tries this and says "oh heck yeah, totally noticeable."
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
ahh, ok

never knew that

well, a default ramdisk wouldn't start a2sd, so a new install would fail

off the top of my head it should work

just had a look at the config for it, besides it have stuff in it that it doesn't need, it has nothing out of the ordinary in it

its got a cpu governor of 'performance' in it, but nah, most people use set CPU in a tight window anyway, so its going to make little diffrence

config attached, I have converted to dos eol

just google them, it will give you an idea of what it does
