problems with camera

Hi, I have a problem with the camera. In the settings of it, I selected the highest quality 720, since then the application crashed, and every time I open it to try to record video, but the application crashes with video. I have a htc magic, there is no solution to the problem?
[G1 Android Development] tnpapadakos:
same here, and more depressing, my phone wont boot after fixing permissions in the terminal emulator...not even after a nandroid restore

very odd
[G1 Android Development] rgawenda:
Yes there are two. One was mentioned a few pages back in this thread (you have read the entire thread, or at least, you should).

The other one is to keep a factory ROM with official support.
[G1 Android Development] dersew:
The problem is that I do not speak English very well I understand, I'm Italian and I'm helping with google .. then I understand that is somewhat difficult to read 150 pages,:D if only you could tell me how can I do while maintaining the cyanogen 5.0.8.
[G1 Android Development] androidmonkey:
Where did you get that from?

Im still confused on why all Cyanogenmod 5.x ROMs do not have this already, since this is a major feature in Eclair.
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
no source code for it
[G1 Android Development] zim2dive:
I had the same problem. I need to take a look and see what fix_permissions script does (ie. look at the code)

Anyone else getting choppy internet radio audio after 5-10 minutes of listening? Happens with Tunewiki, A Online Radio, StreamFurious, etc. Worked fine in 5.07. Everything else is perfect.
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
Yes, i get thaat too - on all 5.0.8 versions I believe. But it's not after 5-10 minutes - it's after 5-10 sec. (I use Sveriges Radio Player)

Anyone else having trouble watching videos (not through youtube app). I will start watching a video and it will be fine and then it will get laggy visually but the audio will be fine. Then the video stops playing all together but the audio continues. I have tested this on 3g and wifi....and have issues on both. Have tried 5.0.8 ds as well as chromatic 3.1. Issue is in both.

Help!!! Recovery broken! Bricked phone!!!

OK, on 06/20 I flashed 5.0.8 Stable, moving from 5.0.8 test 4 (used Amon Ra's recovery to do it). 5.0.8 fixed a lot of problems I was having, particularly with the Gallery and USB Mount. Great work there.

However, I then Installed Recovery Mod (Clockwork). Still had recovery mode, because this morning, I flashed Community Hero Mix 2.1. I didn't check for the Recovery mode after doing that.

Then, I downloaded an update for Clockwork out of the market. I installed the new Recovery Mod. Then, since everything was working, I went to do a Nandroid. Power Off, then power on + Home button does nothing but lock at the G1 start screen.

I've pulled the battery multiple times to get out of the start screen lock. I've re-installed Amon Ra's Recovery, downgraded to the previous version of Clockwork, and re-installed the Clockwork recovery. Ran fix_permissions, phone hung up. Eventually, the battery died. Now, it plain won't get past the G1 logo. Nothing's working. Noticed on Amon Ra's page that his recovery won't work for 5.0.7 because of a "memory leak". But if that's the hold-up, I shouldn't have been able to get to 5.0.8 test 4, then to stable, should I?

G1, ClockworkMod 2.0.0.7, Cyanogen 5.0.8-Stable, CHM 2.1, DangerSPL'd.

I CAN GET TO FASTBOOT, BUT DON'T HAVE A CLUE WHAT I CAN DO FROM THERE!
[G1 Android Development] midijunkie:

[G1 Android Development] tnpapadakos:

you miss understand

ra is compatible with cm5.0.x, it is cm5.0.x which has a bug flashing recovery images

fastboot is here

once you have fastboot setup on your pc

get your phone into fastboot mode, plug in the usb then from command prompt on the pc

fastboot flash recovery C:\downloads\recovery<version>.img

you may need the correct usb drivers for adb, search for adb

personally I wouldn't bother with clockwork, especially since cm5.0.x has issues flashing recovery images

Just upped from 5.0.7 to 5.0.8, things are looking good here. I wasn't expecting so many aesthetic changes (lab, rab, no sliding the app drawer, etc), but it is looking good.

Nice to have the HW call button working again.

I'll stay away from 720 mode in the camera for now. :)

Spare parts is gone now? Or did it move?
[G1 Android Development] zoid_99:
I had the same problem. I had to fastboot install Amon RA's recovery. I think the latest Clockwork has a problem.

I have mytouch3g 32b hardware. running 5.0.8 final flashed over test4.

[G1 Android Development] realcyberbob:
Upgraded to 5.08 yesterday, everything works great. One question that I have though is that when you put your finger on the drawer and leave it there, arrows tell you to pull up, and when you do, the drawer goes away and an arrow shows up to pull down. Hopefully I explained it good enough.

Anybody know what that's for???
[G1 Android Development] 386:
When you pull down the drawer there is room to put more shortcuts. It's sort of like having a second "desktop" for the action buttons on your drawer. You could put a couple of shortcuts there and leave it "pulled up" and then most people wouldn't be able to even find all of your applications that aren't available on your desktop or your second "drawer desktop." I hope this helps, it's just for more shortcuts!
[G1 Android Development] mikeymikesmods:
@realcyberbob - I think the arrow is something to do with ADW. I don't use it, you can turn it off under the ADW settings, UI Settings, Dockbar...

@ericscottf - ADW also has the setting to for the Horizontal Drawer, under Drawer Settings...

@Cyanogen - Already said this on twitter, but thanks again man! Been running 5.0.8 since Saturday, and its honestly the best! No issues, no reboots, great memory usage and lighting quick... beer coming your my friend!

[G1 Android Development] elusivebyte:
Wow, My G1 has never been faster. After a few hours of use on 5.0.7 it used to slow down. Even pressing the home key would be slow to get back to home and show me the icons. And then it would take several seconds for it to accept my swipe input to change home screens. I would have to reboot to get it to be fast again. Now, that doesn't seem to happen nearly as much, or as badly. Even with multiple apps running. The new launcher is great, too!

I have a style complaint. I believe in between 5.0.7 and 5.0.8 someone changed the background color of the selected icon on the home screen and launcher. You can select icons by using the track ball. It used to be a pleasant, mostly-solid orange color. Sort of a light orange color that I associated with android. It was the same color that selected menu items get, selected notifications, or selected buttons.

Now it's a dark reddish-orange, with a shadow and highlight. I don't like it at all. I think it's ugly. In addition, the selected icon's text turns black in the Launcher, and now it's black text against a dark shadow background. It just doesn't work.

Here's a screenshot: (Er, it won't let me post an outside link) I hosted it on imgur.com. The image name is fy9F1.jpg (imgur.com/fy9F1.jpg)

I suggest returning to the simple orange box that it used to have. If there's a better place to suggest improvements than this thread, please let me know.

fix_permissions headache in 5.0.8

running fix_permissions for the current 5.0.8 in terminal and console. Runs fine for first 3rd of script until the screnn just fills up with the error listed below in which it was like running in a loop all night long.

find; /data/data/com.android.vending/cache/velopment/AppHwPref;: No such file or directory.

It looks like it is cache related from web pages used on the phone which has been wiped and cleared using a cache cleaner on the phone.

It doesnt seem that the script finished running as it just gets stuck in this loop.

Any help to resolve this is appreciated.

Flashed update-cm-5.0.8-DS-signed.zip , gapps, and FR-CM-5.0.7-DS-AnySPL_S.zip

Never had this issue running same two items with 5.0.7 or and 5.0.8 test images.
[G1 Android Development] New_Guy777:
If you brick your phone and can't reach recovery...

If anyone else has this problem, here's what you do.

Verify you can get into Fastboot. If you can, you're most likely saved.

Amon Ra's page here in the xda shows how to re-load his recovery mode via fastboot. Just type Amon Ra Recovery G1 in google, and it comes right up.

About the only modification I would make to his instructions are the following:

-When he says to place the recovery image in a folder that fastboot is looking at, he's talking about the Command Prompt folder, which probably goes as follows: C:/Documents and Settings/etc. So, you'll put the downloaded Amon Ra Recovery file in that folder

-When he gives the fastboot text, make sure that what you type matches the image file name exactly. For instance, I downloaded the cyan version, so I had to add the word cyan to Amon Ra's instructions.

Once that's done, you can get into the recovery mode via the good old power + home buttons. I'd recommend wiping at this point, then re-loading your last nandroid.

That's what brougt me back from the brink! Hope this helps!
[G1 Android Development] my_former_self:
Agreed, jazz, "Have some respect," tdo. If you think Cyan's Eclair is such "crap", then just pick another ROM and get out of our forum. Better yet, why don't you have a crack at making a ROM from an fresh Eclair dump by yourself like Cyan does? Oh...not that easy, huh?

Well, whatever you do, do us all a favor; shut your ungrateful mouth. Just go buy an iPhone. Their CEO seems happy to publicly bash others for no other reason than narcissism, too.

Note: Eclair runs flawlessly and faster than ever on my wife's G1 (no CC, no Swap).
[G1 Android Development] my_former_self:
Go into the settings for ADW Launcher under "UI Settings". You can change the highlight colors (Highlights press color) and turn the icons back from the new versions (untick "Use new icon selectors). I didn't like the colors or icons, either. I changed mine back to the light orange and unchecked the new icons option. Hope that helps.

This may sound newbish, I have now gotten the hang of flashing roms but how do you theme them? Cyanogen is by far the best rom but how do I theme it?

And does each rom version use different themes?

just like flashing Cyan or anyone else's ROM, read the directions.

When Cyanogen fixes the sound and the 720p camera issues (which are the two things keeping me away from flashing 5.0.8), will he post patches or fixes will come with the next version, I mean, how does it usually work?

So now if I flash ANY CM5.0.x build onto my MT3G 1.2 I will never receive the stock keyboard. Though updating with any 3rd party keyboard will carry over the 3rd party, the stock will always remain missing.

This only started with 5.0.8. Everything prior to .8 was cool, then i flash .8 final and the keyboard issue....

All Troubleshooting I have done:

All of this is starting from wiping EVERYTHING, except SDCard as I do not use any A2SD or swap.

Flash just .8 Final - NO KEYBOARD

Flash .8 test 4, then .8 final - NO KEYBOARD

Flash just test 4 - NO KEYBOARD

Flash just .7 Final - NO KEYBOARD

Flash .7 final to .8 final - NO KEYBOARD

Flash .8 final, then Gapps, Then .8 final, then Gapps - NO KEYBOARD.

Flash .8 final, then Gapps, then Gapps again - NO KEYBOARD.

Flash .8 final, then GApps, then boot to android, then boot to recovery and flash GApps again (CM suggested I try this) - NO KEYBOARD.

Im starting to think that it might be that a certain folder became Read Only - so the flashes are now not writing the keyboard on MT3G devices?? Is this even possible, either for a rom, or flashable theme, or MM??

This is the only thing I could come up with that would explain why older versions are now not showing with keyboard, where as prior to .8 there was no issue.

It sucks because I have a single Nandroid back up im having to upgrade from each time - and there is no Voice button on the search since I installed a theme, so Im stuck with no Voice to Text functions at all.

My MT3G has been rooted for a while and I updated from Cyanogen 4.2 to 5.08-DS yesterday and 5.08-BK today without issue.

I downgraded my wife's to 1.5, got the app installer, went through everything with 5.08-BK and it kept rebooting. I thought maybe I made too big a jump and tried going to 5.08-DS and it still keeps rebooting.

I get the energy star screen then the one that runs through everything and says "initialisation (sic) finished" root access granted, then the "matrix" looking android, but then it does it again and again.

If I apply 5.08-BK then I get the "firefly" colors then the blue, but then it goes back to the colors, over and over.

Any help is MUCH appreciated (so she doesn't kill me )

First of all... plug the phone to your computer and run "adb logcat" from the tools folder in the Android SDK (guess you have it, if not download it from developer.android.com)... this will allow you to see if the install process is looping, hanged or whatever...

I had a loop failure on one of CM ROMs and it got fixed when I repartitioned and reformatted my SD card, it seems that the ext partition was screwed. Maybe this can help you. Remember to nandroid before XD

Ever since flashing to 5.0.7 my wireless tether stopped working. I know USB tethering works just fine but what do I need to do or download to get wireless tether to work? I went to google code (http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list) and downloaded wireless tether 2.0.1 and 2.0.2. I flashed both with the same outcome telling me "unable to tether, please try again". Anyone that can help, it would be appreciated, thanks. Great ROM by the way!

You don't have to uninstall the Market version, but then you'll have two copies of ADW since ADW itself already came built-in with CM 5.0.8 as the default launcher (the stock Launcher2 is gone).

I had a problem yesterday. Well, my phone frozen and I need to reboot then. I open the phone and remove the battery.

When I start the phone again, it is stop on the black T Mobile screen.

I recover the last Nandroid backup, and after I reflash the 5.0.8 version.

Is anyone have this problem ?

Today my phone is faster than yesterday ... I believe I had a problem with the first flash of this ROM.

I came from that rom as well.

its a great stable rom. :)

I had no problems doing backup, wipe and flash (although I did install Amon Ra's newest recovery 1.7.0 as it easily formats the SD card for the newer A2SD) also as your coming from a g1 you may need to flash a new spl (such as danger or death) as Enomther's does not require a specific spl.

i am currently running test4 and contemplating if i should go to the stable version. where are the advantages of the stable version? test4 is really going well for me and i dont want to mess it up. feedback seems to be mixed on stable, so i am caught in the middle.

my main problems with test4 are:

- while using google listen, i cant do anything else (memory problem, should be the same in stable)

- copilot often minimizes itself during heavy usage (same problem, i guess)

- "one-page-back"-bug in market and facebook

everything else is really working nicely...stable or not?
