Here is some more info on Anderwebs Launcher http://www.jbthemes.com/anderweb/adwlauncher.html

Who wants a basic launcher? yuck. ;)

It is less themed than SuperBad, and just as stable. I love htcclay's stuff but I wanted something in between. Your call :P
[G1 Android Development] cbrehm1007:
Getting force close on swype. Also data takes a few seconds to get going. Very fast though thanks.
[G1 Android Development] jeffakajeff:
'

I am using Swype, and it works flawless.

What version are you using?

I am using version 1.16.
[G1 Android Development] RootNBoot:
just flashed and all is well. Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] chromersmith:
Yeah, I have noticed the slow load up time, Im hoping to resolve that soon.

as for swype, Domenuk and I have been trying to get it included, so there is no mismatch of versions, but the one I link to in the OP works fine if you install it post boot. If anyone has had any luck including swype in a ROM please let me know. (logcat yells that it cant find libswypecore.so even though I put it there)
[G1 Android Development] ss4luis2000:
this is a very good rom. but it dosent want to log me in to facebook.
[G1 Android Development] chromersmith:
Thats odd, Facebook seems fine for me. In general though, it has been shoddy the last couple days (on their side)
[G1 Android Development] ss4luis2000:
that maybe the case cause it gives me login error try again later.
[G1 Android Development] nighthawk626:
really good job wit the way u modded this already beautiful rom. keep it up
[G1 Android Development] ss4luis2000:

New Release is out, should be able to flash right over 1.0.3 if you have problems WIPE :)
[G1 Android Development] koreancanuck:
Try wiping and re-flashing. That's what I'm doing right now lol

[G1 Android Development] he3:
1 wipe factory reset

2 wipe ext part

3 wipe dalvik

4 under partitioning, fix ext part

5 flash

How I currently wipe [my phone]
[G1 Android Development] kashifsiddique:
I got it to work by wiping then flashing 3.1 first and then 3.5
[G1 Android Development] trock62:
Flashed over HTCCLAY SUPERBAD 1.6 and everything is working, seems alittle more stable. Might have just transfered over to the Cromatic ROMS Keep up the good :D:D:D:D work
[G1 Android Development] CoolWheelChair:
lol how come in your new screen shoots u have an android as the battery and i not have it in the 3.5? btw i clicked ur adds a **** load of times haha

this rom keeps getting better and better great job bro. :D
[G1 Android Development] koreancanuck:
What can I say? 3D Gallery loads up super fast.

Edit: Oh by the way Chromersmith :) Just letting you know if you really want to get all the yellow out. When the folder heading is selected to close it, it's yellow. Just saying!
[G1 Android Development] phillmiester:
Just flashed 3.5 working great so far! :) A lot better than 3.1. Good job, keep it up (Y)
[G1 Android Development] cmsweet21:
just flashed this ROM and after a few min. it keeps on rebooting and sometimes it freezes! :(
[G1 Android Development] mackster248:
Wipe everything, and then reflash.

There should be no problems at all. Hope it works, good luck.
[G1 Android Development] cmsweet21:
its ok now,

guys can i ask 1 thing?

is there a way to add some Notification Tones For Messages?
[G1 Android Development] avivot54:
great rom!

but i have a serious prob with the market: i have a big slow down with the market, every time i enter the market app it takes about a minute to show the recommended screen, that goes also to the downloads screen and the search option.

would really appreciate any help....
[G1 Android Development] arefin:
slow market anf no 3g/2g at all.

otherwise excellent ROM
[G1 Android Development] biggary:
This morning, had first ever problems with a rom, kept rebooting due to setcpu set at 800+, wont give me chance to lower it, endless reboot. :(
[G1 Android Development] whywhy1:
you need to take "Set on boot" off. If you can't you will need to delete the setcpu.apk from the terminal.
[G1 Android Development] Germinator_2PAC:
This rom surprise me, everything works fine and very fast.
[G1 Android Development] ThaBadBoy:
For the people having problem with SetCPU set at 800+ and not getting a chance to change it before it freezes or reboots, you may want to try booting into safe mode first and then change the SetCPU values. Should work.
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
The rom has both fully functional data connections on 3g and Edge. If your data signal is gone, try flashing another rom and tell me if its still gone or not. Everytime I had that issue it occurred on every rom I flashed no matter what and I just had to wait it out....usually 24 to 48 hours.

Also the market should only be slow the first time you load it, as it needs to build the cache. If your constantly clearing your market cache then your gonna have longer loading times. Other than that, I don't know what to tell you except that my market loads very quickly.
[G1 Android Development] slayor721:
great ROM. fast and looks nice. but man y did u change the battery? i loved the android guy u had before :( lol. it was the coolest battery icon evar.

and im still gettin that message that says "Insufficient storage space" whenver i try to install apps from the market onto my SD card. i have like 700 MB on there. its rlly starting to bug me now. can sumone plz help me?? thnk u
[G1 Android Development] seles:
excellent rom.

But swap and mt doesn't work. any ideas?
[G1 Android Development] chromersmith:
Need to update the screen shots sorry about that!

Yeah that one is driving me nuts! trying to get it changed!

Hold down menu while booting (past the G1 splash, all the way through the boot animation then it will buzz for a long buzz then go back through the boot animation) to boot into safe mode, this should disable SetCPU, and give you time to go in and remove the checkbox set on boot, and lower the max CPU speed.

do you want to provide the commands needed to do this via console?

Had to match the battery to the rom sorry ;-/ you may need to re-partition your sd card entirely, make sure you back everything up first!

try wiping and reflashing, it works for me.
[G1 Android Development] seles:
that's what i did but in vain.
[G1 Android Development] fabsn:
You IMMEDIATELY have to get rid of the "please click the ads..." text on your website.

Google's not gonna pay a single cent if they get to know of it. And yes, they do check every website - you're account is probably already about to get banned.
[G1 Android Development] chromersmith:
Removed all the directives to click the ads.

I think this is it. Can someone please confirm it?

You are my Hero CHROME!
[G1 Android Development] suncityrk:
only can u tell me with apps2sd I've partition my SD with ext2 swap & fat32, I cannot access these partition when I plug the SD card to my PC Windows always its unformatted do you want to format now?

How do I access the SD partitions including ext2 & fat32 from PC?
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
Just wanted to mention that on your website, the ad on the right doesn't show up for me. (I am using Firefox if that matters.)

On another note...the battery life has been pretty good to me so far.

-I have checked "Use 2g networks only" because I live in a city that T-Mobile doesn't provide 3g.

-I have set cpu set up with profiles like this...

Sleep/Standby - 122 Min / 352 Max

Power < 100% 245 Min / 528 Max

-I am using the stock G1 battery that came with my phone. (April 2009)

After three hours and seventeen minutes I managed to still have 85% battery life left. If you assumed I got three hours per 15% for the next 85% that would mean my battery would last about 20 - 21 hours. This is with moderate use as you can see in the screen shot. A little wifi, some voice calls, and a lot of standby/idle.
[G1 Android Development] suncityrk:
In setcpu for profiles->standby do setting as 122 for lo & hi will help
[G1 Android Development] suncityrk:
I use appbrain and it refreshes from beginning of page instead of caching earlier page content whenever i download an application and go back to this app, I've compcache enabled and it works, older rom version used to cache the appbrain fine so I see from point of previous state of the page, do you know what is the problem?
[G1 Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Same issue. AppBrain lets you select the update option but some of the updates/installs never take place. They show as Downloading in AppBrain and the market, but nothing is going in either place.

Here's what I did.. select the update/install option in AppBrain for everything you want to update or install. Let it go through the process for each one you need and complete the steps, pressing the button to install. Once they are all selected, reboot your phone. After the reboot, my downloading section filled up with the updates and installs I selected.

I think this is more of an AppBrain issue. AppBrain is kewl and all, but it ain't perfect by a long shot.
[G1 Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Trying to use Uninstaller to remove an app, but the screen is completely black. Text and screen is all black. How can I change the color so I can see what is displayed on screen? AppRemover shows onscreen, but not uninstaller.
[G1 Android Development] chromersmith:
Uninstaller seems fine on my system. Maybe uninstall the app and re-install? I just did a fresh install of it as I have never used it before.
[G1 Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Yeah, that was it. I had already uninstalled/reinstalled, but it was a revision back. Got the latest and the issue is resolved.

I've had a couple problems under this ROM but NONE of them have been ROM related. Well done man. This ROM is fast, stable and works like it should. I can't judge battery life yet because day 1 is always a battery killer with the installs, reboots, uninstalls, etc. Overall, damn good work Chromersmith~!
[G1 Android Development] seles:
As I said before i have swap and multitasking issues. I 've already wiped-reflashed, tried downloading again the rom and reflashing, also tried to boot the boot.img to see if there has been any error during the flashing, but still no swap and multitasking for me.

So please can someone gimme a working kernel to flash (via recovery or fastboot) or maybe a good advice-solution?

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] chromersmith:
as for the MT what exactly are you not seeing? What version of the ROM are you flashing? and when you go into terminal and type free, it shows you 0 for swap? do you have a swap partition created on your SD card? If not you will need that in order for MT and swap to work.

Here is how:

Backup (copy) any information you wish to save from your sdcard 1st..

Well, if you create an ext partition, you can enable apps2sd, 100-250mb is plenty for that. No harm putting a small swap partition (32mb) for reference, and to keep things in order. Leave the rest as fat32 for storage, and you're good to go.

Amon Ra works great to partition, or use gparted from computer. When creating ext partition, it wil create as ext2, upgrade this to ext3, then ext4.
[G1 Android Development] seles:
Ok thanks for the fast reply. First of all i'm flashing the 3.5 version. I do have a swap partition (128mb) i do have cc enabled and when I type free in terminal I get 32mb. It doesn't seem to have MT as I can't have opened at the same time Market and browser (not to mention other apps). I didn't have these issues with 2.1 (I never flashed 3.1)
[G1 Android Development] biggary:
bye :)

you were my final rom before i sold my htc magic, so other people can enjoy your rom
[G1 Android Development] chromersmith:
well it seems as though swap is working. :-/ some people have said that flashing 3.1 then 3.5 over top has helped with issues like that, I did a full wipe when I went to 3.5 and everything is working swimmingly.

Sad to hear we lost an android enthusiast :( thanks for passing on the ROM with the phone! Hope to see you back on the droid side soon :)
[G1 Android Development] wbexpress:
Market download unsuccessful

Is there a problem with Google that anyone is aware of? Since last night I can't update or install anything new. If not ROM related (whuch I can't see how it would be), does anyone know how to fix this?
[G1 Android Development] CoolWheelChair:
please bring back the android battery icon , it looked really neat:(
[G1 Android Development] DrftJnkies:
+1 I thought it was pretty cool also. But dont mind either one.
[G1 Android Development] Indianbuddha:
Should i enable CC if i have 32mb swap partition??
[G1 Android Development] sleepy222:
Love the ROM! Great work!! I am running ver. 3.5 and it is much faster than stock cyan 5.0.8 I had and faster than 3.1. Interface runs smooth and my apps launch fast. Your 32mb compcache and tweaks = awesomeness.

Your boot screen hands down the best I've ever seen!!!! I absolutely love the computer POST boot info. creative and useful.

one issue that was in 3.1 that seems to be fixed in 3.5 is swype not working right after a reboot. works fine in 3.5

some minor thing is I don't like black star rating on Market. I prefer the original green star. Also when opening the app drawer the zooming effect is a bit laggy. If you do it again then it is smooth. cached the second time maybe?

Battery life is noticeably better than 3.1
[G1 Android Development] qaid:
I too have a problem with swap

HTC Dream

coming from 2.1 to 3.5 (I skipped 3.1)

did a full wipe beforehand

96mb swap partition

typing in "free" shows me 32mb when I have compcache enabled, and 0 when I have compcache disabled

because of lack of swap, 3.5 feels more sluggish than 2.1 did (especially when switching apps and stuff)
[G1 Android Development] mkatx:
Swap didn't worked here, but adding a userinit.sh in the root directory of the ext-Partition solved the problem after rebooting. Very nice rom, thanks!
[G1 Android Development] Mr. Moe:
I'm back on my MT3G.. I got a Xperia X10 a few months ago, love the phone but no update on the horizon, so back to the closet it goes. And back to the Mytouch I come. Going to try this ROM out because the CM update 5.0.8 seems to be having problems for some people.
[G1 Android Development] smuvman:
swap

took a look at the zip and went to system\etc\int.d and swap was missing. if u know wat ur doing simply delete the .doc from the file name then place the file im uploading into this folder (system\etc\int.d) on the zip and then RE-SIGN the zip and POW u now have guaranteed swap. again if u DONT know wat ur doing DONT follow these directions
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
Easiest way to get swap working is to leave compcache unchecked and put fire rats patch on the root of your sdcard. Drop into terminal and type the command to enable swap (its in his all in one patch thread).

Enjoy.;)

Flashed the 3.5 ROM this morning. This is great! Probably will end up being my daily driver until 2.2 comes to us. Anyhow, it seems that I'm unable to update any apps or install anything from the Market. Everything fails. Is anyone else having this issue?

It happens with both Wi-Fi and 3G.

Mytouch 3G 32b
[G1 Android Development] Michaelr219:
try it twice, it will install the second time
[G1 Android Development] patriot1973:
So this is strange... after the first attempt and it tells me its unsuccesful, I try again as you said and now I get this for any app that I try to install from the market:

Installation Error

Insufficient storage available

That's absurd because I have 264MB internal memory free and 4375MB free on my SD card.

Any other thoughts?
[G1 Android Development] Reziukas:
Hi All,

I'm sorry if this has already been asked, I read the last 20 pages of this thread but didn't find the answer. Would this rom work on 32A magic, and if yes, I guess this is for the old radio?

Thank you
[G1 Android Development] wkustu:
Cell Standby not working correctly?

This is by far the sleekest, snappiest ROM I've ever used. That makes it all the more frustrating that I'm having the same poor battery issues as most--it almost makes it unusable for my daily rom.

Under my battery stats, I noticed that "CELL STANDBY" is using up a huge majority of my battery life: 40%.

I can't really find a definitive answer on how this should be interpreted. Any thoughts?
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
That figure is meaningless without posting the rest of the numbers. Post everything in your battery use statistics.
[G1 Android Development] karl_eller:
If you're having trouble with apps not installing from the Market, you can always try, surprise surprise, re-flashing :p My first flash was having issues with the market, but when I re-flashed, it worked fine.

Swap, for some reason, isn't enabled by default, but I've found the easiest way is to use ADB to push a swap file into /etc/init.d. To do so, download the attached file and remove the .txt extension (You may need to enable "show known extentions" in Vista/Win7).

Open up a console on your PC, and do your usual pre-ADB voodoo.

In console, do the following:

adb remount
adb push 07swap /etc/init.d

First command re-mounts /system as writable, so that you can write files to it

2nd command pushes the 07swap script into /etc/init.d, which is run every time the phone boots. The script assumes that the 3rd partition is the swap partition, and gives you a default "swappiness" of 32.

As a 3rd/4th step, and I'm not entirely sure if this is needed or not, but I then like to open up a terminal on the phone and do the following:

su
cd /etc/init.d
chmod +x 07swap

This sets the 07swap file as executable. I'm not entirely sure if you need to do this, but it saves some hassle and "WTF? Why isn't swap working?".

I can't really claim credit for this, I was originally given the instructions and script by HTC Clay :p

Script:

#!/system/bin/sh
#

if [ -n /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 ];
then
mkswap /dev/block/mmcblk0p3;
fi;

if [ -e /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 ];
then
echo 32 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness;
swapon /dev/block/mmcblk0p3;
fi;

[G1 Android Development] crypysmoker:
Yes it works on 32a, I have it on my fender with the newest 2.22xxxxx radio.
[G1 Android Development] wbexpress:
OK, now I'm really starting to get an attitude. No updates were taking still, so I re-flashed gapps. The updates and a new install worked. However, after it was down installing I clicked "Market" and nothing. It goes right back to the home screen, not even showing a force close or anything. Up until 2 days ago everything was fine. This is nuts that it would be necessary to reflash gapps every time an undate or install is to be done. Can anyone explain what the most likely problem is, and what (such as clear market cache) can possibly bring it back to normal???
[G1 Android Development] timkoss:
I'm sorry to say so but oc sucks in 3.5 i get almost non-stop reboots on any oc
[G1 Android Development] ultra spikey:
I'm running at 633mhz just fine...this is the quickest 2.1 rom I've tried yet.
[G1 Android Development] lgtsanev:
Anyone else having random multiple restarts of their launcher?
[G1 Android Development] kboater:
which OC kernel are you using. can you post a link to it please?
[G1 Android Development] timkoss:
Can you post a good kernel with oc?

I will be very happy if you do it

On Chromatic 2.1 I was running 672 good enough...

restarts start about 7xx

But now it sucks rly
[G1 Android Development] NtilUrEarsBleed:
Fastest 2.1 rom to date for me and no issues to report. Loaded w/ CW Recovery from cyanogen 5.08. 614OC w/ SetCPU. no swap. Updates have come through just fine, market will bounce back once in a while but no big deal. Can't wait for Chromatic 2.2 (4.0 maybe?)
[G1 Android Development] chromersmith:
Anyone who is haing issues with reboots. This is the SAME breed of kernel from 2.1 (updated to work with 5.0.8)

So if you are having issues, please post some helpful info.

Model: eg G1

Color: eg white

OC speed: eg 614MHz

Some devices (even the same model) have issues with OCing, this isn't the kernel's fault, this is an unfortunate variance. And to be honest the best bang for your buck (and battery) is a slight OC (576Mhz)

Those posting that speeds > 700MHz causing reboots...think about how hard you are pushing your device. Ts a 528MHz processor, bring it on back to stock! Another tip: don't use performace in setcpu use on demand. Also setting a failsafe profile if it reaches 100 degrees F, take it down to 528 will help prevent reboots.

Those having battery issues, with this kind of speed its going to be pretty rough on G1s. This firmware was not deigned to run on these first gen devices. Ihave noticed however that the first day is he worst. But read the OP to make sure you are resestting your battery stats, and a good conitioning can help. Let it go until it dies, then charge overnight. Sometimes a little reset like that can work wonders. I will of course be working on solutions on my end. But I am hittng a wall.

As for swap...I will sort that out in the next release sorry folks that are having issues.

As for 2.2 you bet your sweet asses, that 4.0 wll be based on our newest dessert :)

Market issues....I don't have em, ever. Never have, if anyone reading this has any advice for those who are PLEASE post! I am not near my PC today but will be looking later!

I do appreciate all of the nice comments and feedback from all of you! Thank you all for trying my ROM and letting me know how its doing for you!

the rom itsself is ****en faster then a a ferrari 599gtb. but there is a problem... its usin too much gas

gas meanin = bettery life... and as far as that goes i have every thing turned off on the phone even gps and wifi... as wel as the 3g is turned off...
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
Whats funny is that when you enable compcache it automatically disables swap. :p\

Swap ran like garbage for me on this rom, so I use compcache instead. Runs great.
