No you dont NEED an ext 4 partition if you have a mytouch. HOWEVER you must flash in this order. Flash the ROM and then without booting up flash firerats patch. Thats how I have always done it. I only have a swap and fat32 partition. For some reason I didnt need to flash firerats patch in 1.2 but 1.4 and up required it. Why? I have no clue.

Since my superuser app is broken in this rom I noticed a much better battery life (maybe setcpu doesnt work?)...getting approx. 18 h with 1h talk, some texting, some emailing and 2h browsing the web...really like the rom, still need more speed (ram hack? compcach?)...keep up the good work :)

Hey zachattack052... I've found here in desire section a working jit version with sense desire...

Then you should re-add the jit in your next release maybe it woks with legend version...

Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] neo21:
How did you manage to do that? Evertime I try to install the "Superuser.apk" taken from the original zip via Astro, I get the app manager menu to just offer me "uninstall" which then just doesnt work...?!

i just recently flashed the new g1 radio update and now every time i flash this rom (with 128 mb swap btw) i cant open the market. it just looks like its going to open then just goes back to the homescreen. can anyone help?

read the first post....:/

ps: i´ll help you to find the position
[G1 Android Development] jrharvey:
This problem happens when you cannot sign into google. Some people just cannot seem to get logged into google account. Some can and some cannot. Doesn't seem to matter whether its a g1 or mytouch but there is an issue there. Its an issue with all 2.1 sense ROMs that I can tell. Ive tried them all and every one of them has this issue (except maybe the slide roms). My only recommendation is wipe and flash again. Flash a second time without reboot. Then reboot and wait for the lock screen to appear and then just let it sit for 15-20 minutes and dont touch anything. DO NOT unlock the screen until you have waited. Then just go through setup and see if you can login to google account. If you can then this will fix your problem. If google account is greyed out on setup I guess just try again. I dont know what else to say about that. It works fine for me but some people really have trouble with this. Like I said, its not specific to g1 or mytouch, its just an issue.
[G1 Android Development] protomanez:
Uhh, NO.

10chars.
[G1 Android Development] jmariconda:
ok ty ill b sure to try tht:)

EDIT: i did it and still had the same problem, guess i'll just have to wait for the next update (but by then i might have my droid incredible :D )
[G1 Android Development] zachattack052:
thanks, i will try it out..

why? jit is only going to speed it up
[G1 Android Development] castaway1:
zach do we can expecting some relase for 2.1 soon? what is with your major points?do you still working on this awsome ROM? i really like it.Please dont give up. ;)

[G1 Android Development] Abhi_UK:
Is this the new version of sense ie does it have friend stream etc

Also is this still being updated?
[G1 Android Development] x1tyme:
No, You have flash Legend rom if you want friend stream.

Yes, it still being updated..not sure when the new version release come out. 1.4.4 is good if you know how to tweak it...:D

[G1 Android Development] VolcanicSkunk:
Just wondering if it would be possible to add the volume key track change for the music player that Xillius200 has in his 2.1 Eclair rom that he made with ChristianSantana51? I really like that feature since my phone is my music player. Thanks Zach!
[G1 Android Development] hoshmosh:
does this work with mytouch 32 b?
[G1 Android Development] x1tyme:
what version of mytouch? 32b/32a? but it works with mytouch and G1
[G1 Android Development] jrharvey:
works well with my mytouch 32b. I recomend using firerats mytouch friendly a2sd patch. It moves your apps back to internal memory so its faster.
[G1 Android Development] Script0:
Hey,

first: I'm from germany, so sorry for my bad englisch :p

I flashed the Rom to my Google G1 / HTC Dream after wiping all the things you mentioned...

But it stucks on the bootscreen ( blue, red, yellow, green ). It's frozen since 15 minutes :/

What am i doing wrong :/
[G1 Android Development] castaway1:
you need to flash firerat A2SD patch after ROM
[G1 Android Development] jrharvey:
Sounds like you dont have your SD card partitioned correctly. You should have 3 partitions. Ext4/Fat32/swap. Do you have those?
[G1 Android Development] Script0:
Hey,

where do i get the "firerat A2SD patch" and how do i make partitions on my SD-Card :)

thanks,

chris
[G1 Android Development] jrharvey:
Well if you are asking that then you probably didnt follow the directions, haha. No worries :D To partition your SD card (FIRST BACKUP) and then go into recovery and partition from within there. Depending on your recovery image there will be different options so I cannot tell you exactly where. If your using a G1 then you wont be using firerats patch. That is really only for Mytouch because it has a lot of extra space that the G1 doesn't so it doesn't need a2sd.
[G1 Android Development] Script0:
Hey,

yea, i know how to partition my sdcard, but i don't know, in what partitions i have to devide it.

If i go to the Partition SDCARD-Menu, there are the options:

Partition SD

Repair SD:ext

SD:ext2 to ext3

SD:ext3 to ext4

.__.?

thanks,

chris
[G1 Android Development] jrharvey:
Select Partition SD. Your going to want 512mb Ext4 and probably 192mb swap and the rest fat32
[G1 Android Development] Script0:
What sizes? ^^

Swap-size = XX MB
[G1 Android Development] jrharvey:
Oh, check my edit.
[G1 Android Development] jrharvey:
I edited the post.
[G1 Android Development] Script0:
Ah, saw your edit.

I've chosen 192MB SAWP-size, now he is askiing me for the ext2-size, not for ext4 like you said :)

Should i choose 512mb here? - Okay anyway, i've chosen it. now the sd-card has been partitioned.

my g1 is rebooting.

//

it is still freezing at the bootscreen :/
[G1 Android Development] jrharvey:
After you partition you have to select "ext2 to ext3" and then "ext3 to ext4". You also have to do a complete wipe of data, cache and dalvik and reflash the ROM. It doesnt help to partition if you dont do a reflash.
[G1 Android Development] raa320:
how do you make the led for charging work on the g1
[G1 Android Development] TerryAki:
my phone was fine when i flashed the 2.1 rom but when i flashed the OC kernal it's now stuck at the G1 screen. i wiped before i flashed, what is there a known problem for the OC?
[G1 Android Development] Script0:
Ok, thank you.

Rom is working now, but kind of laggy...

But i can live with it...

But: Where can i get a german language pack?

Rom is englisch or france.

I'm german x)

And i need a german keyboard layout.

When i press z, there comes a y. (horrible englisch :/)

Thanks,

CHris.
[G1 Android Development] jrharvey:
Haha if you wiped before you flashed then that means you lost your ROM right?
[G1 Android Development] crypysmoker:
lol.. Ok.. so you installed the rom.... wiped the rom out... only installed the kernel... and wonder why no rom is booting?
[G1 Android Development] TerryAki:
oh haha, that would make sense. I thought if i just wiped data/factory reset, it wouldn't erase the rom, just the stuff installed and what not but oh well, noob mistake by me.

ANYWAYS, i have a few more questions. I've been having problems with the following

- Texting lags like CRAZY and it fc's on me ALOT. Is that normal?

- battery dies extremely fast, i have 2 batteries but still. I only have 1 home screen and 1 active htc widget which is the clock/weather.

- After taking photos, the preview looks messed up but when opened it looks fine. And the video recording does not work. I noticed most hero roms dont have video capability, but this rom doesn't have anything posted about the camcorder having a problem.

- Also, when i plugged the phone into my car stereo via aux cable. When i have the media volume set on highest, the quality seems to be very ****ty, almost as if my speakers are blown. But if i turn the media volume down a little bit on my phone it sounds fine.

Are these problems normal or did i do something wrong?

I'm running a g1 with ext4/512/160 swap
[G1 Android Development] VolcanicSkunk:
I have a lot of these issues as well. The dev recommends not using a task killer, which will speed up the messaging app. Also, don't try to rotate the phone until the app loads. Doing so will cause a FC. When it comes to the battery I can't help you. I have a good battery life with this rom. I overclock with 528/384. Keeping it on 528/528 will kill the battery really fast. The camcorder problem everyone has. To record with the camcorder turn off the sound and it will work. And with the music player you just have to never turn it up all the way. I have to turn the stereo in my car up louder and my phone lower to compensate. But it is a known issue. Also not mentioned is the Bluetooth, which with all Sense Roms, doesn't work either.
[G1 Android Development] Blackman778g:
Well, I decided to give this ROM a try. I flashed v1.4.4 after a wipe of everything and the ROM refuses to boot past the nexus boot screen. Do I need to flash an older version(a.k.a.base)? Or Do I just need v1.4.4 and maybe had a bad download?
[G1 Android Development] jrharvey:
Usually means you did not partition correctly. What is your partition setup?
[G1 Android Development] lightninbug:
Update coming to the 2.1 anytime soon?
[G1 Android Development] gabelazo:

Still loving this Rom though.:D
[G1 Android Development] Blackman778g:
I honestly have no clue anymore... I lost all my data after repartitioning.. I had it saved as a note on the phone :(.

Isn't there some su code for Terminal that will give me the info? I'll hit up the search button though...
[G1 Android Development] DroidDavi:
im giving the 2.1 a try i messed up and didnt flash the overclock can i clock it now or do i have to redo the flashing of the rom and do it that way
[G1 Android Development] jrharvey:
Just flash the overclock over the current ROM. You dont have to wipe or reflash the ROM or anything. Dont forget that the clocks are not set until you change it in setcpu.
[G1 Android Development] tahiriqbal:
I installed this ROM. It's way too good. Loved it, but I just can't sign into Google account. The option is disabled. I have already tried the method mentioned in the above link three times, but no luck. I'm trying 4th time now. I pray it works this time. I really wanna keep this ROM. :(

[G1 Android Development] zachattack052:
what? this dosent make any sense.. are you on ext 4?
[G1 Android Development] probablyhy:

Thank you for those links! I used the free version of HeroLED instead to turn on the backlight for the keyboard and the front nav buttons. And installing the jit fix has made this rom even faster for me.

zachattack052 & xillius200, this has been the fastest 2.1 hero I have tried out yet! Thank you for your great work! Sense is growing on me more and more as I use this rom :D
[G1 Android Development] jrharvey:
So flashing that JIT update actually works? You just flashed it right over ZXhero2.1?
[G1 Android Development] zachattack052:
sweet! thanks for the feed back :)
[G1 Android Development] Kid_Ding:
Yup! Followed OP's install instructions and added the JIT update last.
[G1 Android Development] VolcanicSkunk:
What kind of phone and partition setup are you using? This has been a huge factor in most people being able to use this rom. Some people with a mt3g have had many problems getting the sign in to work. I had to use an ext 4. Firerat's a2sd hasn't worked for me with the ZXHero 2.1. Let us know your specs and that'll give the guys here more to work with. Jrharvey has been awesome in helping everyone else out. I'm sure he'll help you too.
[G1 Android Development] jrharvey:
Weeeellllll I do what I can and I really do try but I can only help as far as my phone will let me. I dont encounter a lot of the problem you guys have which makes things really hard. I can replicate the problem with google login but I can also smash the problem every time by following the steps I have mentioned. However, it just doesnt seem to work for some and I can understand the frustration. I cannot use a phone without google sync. Thats like 1/2 the phone missing for me.
[G1 Android Development] k0nzious:
i have a G1 8GB.

with 160 Swap.

528 EXT4.

and the rest FAT32.

dunno why google signin wouldn't work.
[G1 Android Development] jrharvey:
Try this

1. WIPE EVERYTHING... data/dalvick/cache etc....

2. Flash ROM

3. Without wipe, flash again

4. Reboot phone and let it boot to the lock screen BUT DONT TOUCH

5. Let phone sit for 15 minutes after lock screen appears but dont press any buttons or swipe to unlock. Just let it do its thing.

6. unlock phone and start to go through setup

7. when prompted to the data connectivity page choose Wifi + mobile data

8. Login to a wifi source (if you can)

9. Let it sit for about 3 minutes after connecting

10. go through the rest of setup and HOPE that your google login is not greyed out :) If it doesnt work then it means you werent hoping enough, haha.

Seriously though. Hopefully this helps you. This works for me every time but you have a G1 so im not sure if the hardware difference will affect it much.
[G1 Android Development] k0nzious:
either my timing is off, or it doesn't work. :/
[G1 Android Development] Kid_Ding:
These are great steps to follow. In addition to waiting, you can also run adb shell > logcat from your pc to see all the install activity (just in case you never paid attention to the time or always jumping the gun :rolleyes:)
[G1 Android Development] k0nzious:
can't get 'em to work. :c

Thanks for the reply.

I have followed the steps Jrharvey has mentioned but I just can't get the google login option enabled.

It's an awesome ROM. Perhaps a future update will make it work on my Dream. Gotta make my dream come true :)
[G1 Android Development] Kid_Ding:
The instructions didn't work to install the Rom or logcat didn't run properly?
[G1 Android Development] Kid_Ding:
It may sound like overkill but try backing up all your sd card and re-partition it. But this time use a 256mb swap and keep the rest the same as before. Wipe all, repair ext4 with recovery and then transfer only the files needed to flash rom(hero, oc and/or jit). Flash all at the same time, same order, +/- extras. Reboot and wait 1/2 hour time after. Hope that gets it going for you. This has been a superb sense Rom!
[G1 Android Development] VolcanicSkunk:
I was finally able to get my mt3g to work without an ext partition! So stoked. Trying out the jit to see if it really does make any difference. Here's hoping. :D

And does anyone know of any way to get a copy of an apk that won't backup with MyBackup Pro? I've used several app managers (i.e. AppManager, Linda File Manager, etc.) in the market to try to get the apk for ShapeWriter. It gets removed from the market tomorrow and I want to be able to install it to any rom that I use. But I cannot get the apk to save to my sdcard for the life of me. Any help is appreciated!
[G1 Android Development] jrharvey:
Can you not just use Astro to navigate to the APK in the system and copy and paste it into your backups folder? I know that wont work with ODEXed files but it should with a normal apk right? I mean, ive done this before when modifying rosie.apk.

ADB pull should work as well if you know your way around the android sdk.

Change your lockscreen and wallpaper pictures to something from your SDCARD (it can be another HTC pic, but only from sdcard) If you enable JIT

It should work faster.

I don't think this rom is compatible with your phone. I think it only works with the G1 or the original MT3G. Check the first page in the thread. Also you can boot your phone with the back button and end pressed down to see if you have a 32a or a 32b phone. This rom is for the 32b. Hope this helps.
