[G1 Android Development] Cannon202:
Ok,first and foremost I want to thank all my CE users and fans for the success of this ROM again, I'm glad you guys enjoy it. I do have something to clear up though. This ROM was created to fit and meet everyone's basic requirements w/ a little extra.I am not responsible for customizing my ROM to fit everyone's individual needs. There would be too many complaints editing,removing and adding things that only a few people request. So if something is needed to be added to the ROM I need a substantial amount of people to request it,otherwise you will have to edit/add it yourself.

Thank You

Hey, I was perusing Google Reader and found this potentially useful tidbit.

It's a list of Google Android Codes to get data/do wipes/etc. via phone codes.

Could be handy?

As with anything suggested on forums or information found on the web, I'm not responsible if your phone bricks, turns into a zombie and eats you, or blows half of your face off.

For those at work and have sites blocked [such as myself], here is the QR code version:

(just use barcode scanner from the market and scan it, then choose your favorite browser...I use xScope)

Download the T-Mobile Visual Voice mail works perfect for me..
[G1 Android Development] Gen00:
Anyone know how i can get Tethering to work or get wireless tethering? really use it alot n i need it.. thanks
[G1 Android Development] Cannon202:
Go into Settings>Wireless & Networks>and check Internet tethering. Must be connected through usb though
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Cannon, do you know if your kernel is overclocked? In SetCPU, my max frequency is 576 instead of the standard G1 528.

Also, I could not get my phone to boot after applying your black bar patch on my G1 with stock SPL (froze on G1 screen). Would removing needless sound files give it enough space to work properly?
[G1 Android Development] Cannon202:
Yes,the kernel is over clocked by default. I'm not sure why your phone is froze though. When i tested the patch my phone took longer to boot for the first time. I recommend freeing up some space on your SD and flashing again
[G1 Android Development] Gen00:
Thanks.. ill try it out is there anything i need to do to connect or just check Internet tethering n i shld be able to use it?

i found a wireless tethering on the market too.. its Barnacle Wifi Tether it works pretty good and its free.. But i like using USB tethering sometimes..
[G1 Android Development] heavenlydemonic:
** Sorry, I found the ThinkTank on G1s and battery drain issues **
[G1 Android Development] Gen00:
I found only one problem when i connect my USB to the computer it never asks me to mount.. But if i do it in recovery it connects to my computer with no problem.. becuz i tried turning on Internet Tethering i connected the USB to my computer n my computer doesnt find it is there something i need to do for my computer to locate it??

edit: when i do plug the USb to the computer it shows my phone is charging but i still cant mount..
[G1 Android Development] tienha:
thank U guy.i've got it :D
[G1 Android Development] tienha:
CaNNoN,if your rom not include 3D Gallery(very slow and needs lot of ram),that was perfect:D
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Nope, what I said is not backwards at all. I never said anything about increasing speed... just giving folks with G1s a little more space to work with.

You are right though, the best way to go would be to remove the ones you don't need, then insert the ones you do into the system folder.
[G1 Android Development] nicknowsky:
I gotta agree with part of that, there is NO need for the 3D gallery, especially on our limited RAM phones. Its cool I guess if you have a nexus one, but adds no functionality. If you accessing pics on ur G1, it's usually for a purpose, so u want it to be fast and snappy.

Maybe just the basic Gallery.apk would be better, maybe even make the ROM a super tiny bit faster. Just something to think about
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
Nice ROM

AMEN! good philosophy of KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) .. this seems like a really strong feature set off CM5

one possible thing to utilize is scripting .. there is an abundance of features that could potentially be added but not everyone want and/or need them .. a script can be designed to add features to the ROM via Terminal .. or even build an app in the Market to download additional features from various sources with the click of the screen
[G1 Android Development] nicknowsky:
oh yeah the reason I came here was to tell you the ROM is freaking great. This is the first ROM i have left in my Mytouch for more than 2 days. usually I flash a new ROM everyday, but this has been so fast, smooth, and error free I have totally just left it on my phone.

only thing i noticed is the Chris S. NexusMod live wallpaper is bit lagging on your ROM, i dunno why older 2.1 ROMS use to run the Nexus One live wallpaper really smooth. It could be the app and not ur ROM, I dunno
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
I'll do that, but I'm not exactly sure how that would help. It seems that internal storage is the issue as to why the patch isn't working (or something...still not really sure why it won't take).
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Oh no... thank you!

This is an amazing piece of work that you have created. Short of the black theme, there wasn't any tweaking needed.

A tip for those coming from other ROMs or previous releases of CE...

If you use Titanium Backup, when you restore your apps, a good 99% of your settings should carry over. I have Locale setup with a nice system for muting my phone during work hours (but have sounds on while I'm at lunch), Handcent for my messaging, AppOrganizer for desktop folders and HelixLauncher for my home - all of those settings were retained when I made the switch from CE 2.0 to 2.1. I didn't have to re-setup anything on Helix except resetting my widgets. The most I've had to do is give SU access to things as they ask for it.
[G1 Android Development] atlmatt:
Google Apps

I flashed the Google apps but they are not showing up.

Suggestions?

Everything else seems to be working awesome
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
You flashed recovery? You could try doing a wipe & reflash.

More info about your phone tho please?
[G1 Android Development] Jdom58:
Well you can always replace the 3D Gallery with the basic Gallery, the APK is floating around here somewhere but I gotta tell you, I'm using a G1 and 102 pictures took a couple of minutes to load the first time I opened it but once that is done it opens all pictures up right away after that, no lag time at all and looks great.
[G1 Android Development] atlmatt:
I am running the latest Amon Recovery

Dream/G1 with stock SPL, latest radio,

swap256

apps512
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Only thing I can suggest is to wipe and reflash 2.1 and the Google apps - it's gone perfectly for pretty much everyone else.
[G1 Android Development] Gen00:
Ive noticed everybody putting there swap at 256 is that were i shld be doing it becuz i got mine at 128 or it dont matter becuz i have a MT3G??
[G1 Android Development] removesstains:
I can't wait to get home and flash the black patch to my G1. My work blocks storage sites or this would have been done this morning when i saw it.

I've been using the 2.1 version since sunday and i'm loving it. Is there a way to unlock the screen by double pressing the menu button like in the previous roms? The new slide to unlock thing kinda slows down my productivity and annoys me. Yes i'm one of those people. :p
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Grab "Menu Unlock" from the market. I didn't like the slide only option either.

Scan the QR in this link with Barcode Scanner - it's the link to the download for the black theme.

I try to use the shortened goo.gl links whenever possible... if you add .qr to the end of any goo.gl link, it will generate the QR for you. Enjoy.
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
even on a Sense ROM 256 swap is overkill, well, might be just right for a Highend Sense ROM )

now, here is the but..

for now lose interest in swap, it really doesn't do a great deal with the Current CM5.0.7 Kernel
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Does it not do much because the CM5 kernel is so blazingly fast on it's own?
[G1 Android Development] ryaninc:
This is the issue with Apps2SD on stock SPL G1s. With apps2SD checked, that google apps pack will not flash. The only way I got it to work (on both my phone and my brother's, who had the same issue) was to first flash the ROM, then without rebooting flash the google apps add-on. Once all was up and running, use the terminal command that Ch4m3l30n mentioned. That command will then allow market apps to be updated/installed to the SD card.
[G1 Android Development] removesstains:
AWESOME! Thanks, downloading now.
[G1 Android Development] dcorrea:
Can someone explain to me what exactly the slide to unlock is and how this rom is supposed to behave?

Are you talking about waking the phone from sleep by pressing the menu button? If so, every rom I have used including this one and CM's 5.07 stable all allowed me to unlock via the menu button without having to swipe the screen. Am I missing something?
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
correct behaviour

menu --> slide screen ( or lock pattern )

incorrect behaviour

menu --> menu --> random speed dial in pocket/purse/handbag/manbag

but some like the broken behaviour, ^^ above market app is one solution

I'm all for time and motion studies, but honestly loss in productivity... seriously?
[G1 Android Development] gab1972:
The only problem that I see with this is that if you have APN setting problems [i.e. not getting SMS or MMS] there *could* be something wrong with your settings which could *also* carry over. IMHO
[G1 Android Development] removesstains:
LOL, yeah i never had my G1 random speed dial while in my pocket and i have had it since launch. Although i always keep it in my left pocket and normally only carry a stick of chapstick in the pocket with it. Plus it hangs to the right if you get my drift. :D So therefore there isn't anything in there that's going to mysteriously press it.

So i'll stick with my "broken behavior" until i get a faster phone without a chin.
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
because a lot of work has been put into the OOMM ( out of memory Manager )

during the test series you would have noticed swap getting bogged down, as swap was seen by the oomm like it was real memory, so apps weren't being managed correctly and too much was going to swap

since test7 this has been fixed, but now you see the opposite, as in 'not enough' makes it into swap

Honestly, swap makes very little difference with CM5.0.7 Stock kernel
[G1 Android Development] jtroye32:
my advice for this rom is to install Auto Memory Manager or some other memory manager where you can change the process killing aggressiveness. I set mine to normal and then i set processes which i like to not have killed so they open instantly (dialer, handcent, etc) to keep alive so it keeps it in the memory as long as possible, and also moved them to internal memory. I also use swapper 2 for a 96mb partition with 60 swappiness (can't really say if this contributes because i started using it at the same time as Auto Memory Manager). I have to say this has improved my experience dramatically. The default aggressiveness of the process handling (pretty much keep nothing in memory) has negative effects on speed.
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
That's only if you backup/restore the system settings from Titanium. I don't backup any of the system stuff, just the user installed... so there is no fear of any funky system settings being carried over.
[G1 Android Development] dcorrea:
Ahh thanks for clarifying. I guess i was overthinking it :D
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Hmm. Good stuff to know. I didn't take part in any of the CM testing, so I didn't have knowledge of any of that.
[G1 Android Development] kwanbis:
I have already used CM507, and wanted to try this one on my 32A Dream (Rogers).

For CM507, i had to flash:

1) rom

2) ebi1

3) google apps

Now, i only did

1) rom

2) google apps

but it would not boot.

I then flashed EBI1 update from CM507, and now it IS booting, instead of staying on the HTC Magic screen.

Is that correct?
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Did you actually get it to boot fully? Does everything work?

Since this is based off of CM5, flashing the EBI1 fix should work - most of the other CM5 fixes and tweaks work.

If you get it to boot fully, can you do a quick write-up with the link you used for the EBI1 patch? I'll add a link on the FAQ that goes directly to your post.
[G1 Android Development] dweller88:
For so reason, I'm not seeing paid apps in the market.

I was on the previous CE2.0

I get to see the promoted paid apps when I first enter the market app but when

I choose applications I only get "Top Free" or "Just in" as choices,

Has anyone else had this problem with this rom. I imagine not as I did a search on the thread,

any idea what I can do to change this would be appreciated because this is such a flawless rom and I want to buy apps :)
[G1 Android Development] kwanbis:
Right, it is working so far.

2.2.1: I did:

0) Recovery Boot.

1) Wipe.

2) Cannon ROM .

3) (optional) Black Theme.

4) WiFi Patch.

5) (optional) Google Apps.

6) EBI1 Patch (BC-5.0.7-ebi1-signed.zip direct or from here if the url changes. Note that i was NOT able to use 5.0.8)

7) Reboot.

Enjoy!
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
For you it would be.

Keep in mind that I'm not a dev, but, it's my understanding that this wasn't made to work with 32A phones.

The fact that you tried it and got it working with your Rogers is great - I think I saw someone else a bunch of pages back ask if it worked on 32A phones.
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Do you live in a country that would normally have access to the paid apps?

If you're not, I remember reading on some other thread a few months ago about an app called "market enabler"... a Google search should find all the info you need on it.
[G1 Android Development] kwanbis:
Well, actually on the FAQ and first posts, it says things like: "Danger SPL (For G1 users only)", and "Q: I have a myTouch3G/Magic, do I need the Danger SPL? A: No. I'm still running the stock SPL on my MT3G Classic... you're good to go."

So i assumed it would work on my HTC Magic Rogers.

More so, since it is comming from CM507.
[G1 Android Development] asb123:
when applying the black patch it is looping at the second splash screen
[G1 Android Development] mightyab:
Stuck

I've tried to boot both 2.1 ROMS (regular and any spl) and I still get stuck at the boot screen for over 30 mins. What should I do?
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
I'll have to change that wording then and take off the Magic part... normally, you wouldn't be able to flash a 32B ROM on a EBI1/32A phone without that EBI1 patch. I'll make a 2nd part though about applying the patch... if you'll be kind enough to do that short write-up with a link to the patch. ;)
[G1 Android Development] sl1k1:
I had that same problem..i had to wipe and re-flash the rom and the black patch to get it to work..
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Did you look at the FAQ? Give us more info on your phone... we can't help if we don't know what you have.
[G1 Android Development] kwanbis:
Correct, i normally check EBI1/32A patches, but since it looked like it DID support the 32A because of the FAQ wording, i thought this update was somehow adapted for the 2.

Already did, a couple of posts above:

[G1 Android Development] ryaninc:
Anyone have any ideas about this issue? It's the only problem I have with the ROM and I love everything else about it. But not being able to use audio-out is a big problem. Am I the only one with the issue?
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
I'm confused. It says you added Launcher Pro, but the screenshots clearly show the ADW.Launcher. Care to clear the air (unless it has been answered, then tell me to use the search button)?
[G1 Android Development] atlmatt:
GRRRRRR

I am starting to get discouraged from this ROM, I have used the previous version with no issues

I still cannot get the GOOGLE apps to load

I have wiped, flashed, booted and watched the logcat till activity stopped. Then rebooted back into recovery, flashed the google apps, and reboot, no apps appear.

I don't know what you guys are doing different that I am not, But I cannot get the apps to appear for nothing

[G1 Android Development] opasha:
did you wipe all three (data, dalvik, ext), then flash, then flash google apps, then reboot? that's the method most of us have done.
[G1 Android Development] opasha:
he is most likely just showing the PREFERRED launcher he chose. it comes with both. at least, that is what i included in the themed version i posted. i just selected the ADW launcher because i like it better. at the beginning of setup, it should ask you which one you want as default when you press the home key.
[G1 Android Development] ryaninc:
Yep, this is the same apps2SD issue I was discussing earlier. The only way I've managed to do it is to wipe completely, flash the ROM, then

without rebooting, immediately flash

the google apps pack.

Once you are all logged in, go to the Terminal Emulator app and type the command from this post. As Ch4m3l30n says in that post, there may be a security risk with that method, but it does work. Good luck!
[G1 Android Development] kwanbis:
I have done:

1) wipe

2) rom

3) google apps

4) boot.
[G1 Android Development] atlmatt:
I rebooted then flashed the apps, Let me try without rebooting between the ROM and the APPS
[G1 Android Development] opasha:
that's really weird bro. i have a g1 also and have had no such problem. i had the call issue where you couldnt hear the other person, but the flash update on page 21 that firerat posted fixed that. do you have tmobile visual voicemail installed? because i know when people use that and dont click settings and enable speakerphone, the audio will only play from the internal speaker (ear piece) rather than the external (speaker on back).
[G1 Android Development] asb123:
ALRIGHT, i finally got it to boot, and its working perfect.

It took a repatitioning of my sdcard :( to get it to work though...

working great. 3d works!
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Is that necessary for the black patch to work? I flashed the ROM, then gapps, and then booted fully. Then rebooted back into recovery, flashed the black bar patch, and then rebooted. It was then that it froze on the G1 screen.
[G1 Android Development] atlmatt:
Thats where I was going wrong, I was wondering why when it booted i did not have to sign in to google. I got it working. Now to reload my apps, and enjoy the new ROM

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] Evil-Monkey:
I have a mytouch so it might be diff for you but when I did all three in recovery it got stuck in a bootloop. So I wiped everything flashed the zip along with gapps ( no ext in my part). Booted fine, signed into Google extra. Then I went back and then flashed the black patch. Everything is working fine for me. A little lag on loading my messages and contacts but I think that's because I also didn't set up swap.

i ported the SERENITY theme to COMPLETE ECLAIR 2.1 ANY SPL. THIS IS A FULL THEMED ROM. all credit to smjfosho for his good work. enjoy! :)

[G1 Android Development] kwanbis:
Nice theme. At least not those all black, all dark ones i see some people love :S

Wouldn't be possible to just make it a theme?
[G1 Android Development] opasha:
no because for some reason, cyan's new version does not allow you to copy anything to framework using the traditional "copy_package:" command in the update-script from what i have seen and read from ace42. it only allows you to copy changes to the app folder apparently. unless someone knows the proper commands to tell me that can be used in the update-script to allow the whole framework, fonts, media, and app folders to be copied correctly, i dont know any other way except modifying a full rom. nonetheless, you can simply flash this over complete eclair version you already have. it seems to work without any issues from what i have seen so far for others, which is why i posted my personal fully themed version earlier which is now in the OP.
[G1 Android Development] speedysilwady:
that explains a lot, i always get a syntax error message when i tried to port a slightly modified version of darkstar to this rom...so you have to make it into a full rom? hmm also if i delete LatinIME.apk from system and stick a themed swype in the update.zip, would that cause system instability? sorry for the slightly off-topic (the theme im working on is for this rom after all, im just new at this =P)
[G1 Android Development] opasha:
basically you download cannon's rom (the any spl is the one that works for me but choose whatever works for you out of the two), then open that rom up, and take all the darkstar png files and .9.png files and drag and drop them into the appropriate drawable folders for the framework and for apks if you are also modifying those. that's the entire rom itself and you are just changing image files basically and resigning the .zip. deleting LatinIME.apk does not matter, but it doesn't hurt to leave it in there. i believe you have to put swype in the data/app folder if there is one. however, if there is not, you could rename it to LatinIME.apk and delete the other LatinIME.apk as you were suggesting. modifying the system does not hurt as long as you arent getting rid of important things like settings, accounts and sync, etc. firerat and cannon know much more than i do, so maybe they can help you out on how to create that data folder because that is the area you can easily add the extra apps of your choice. that's how it's always been for roms that had the extra apps.
[G1 Android Development] sleepyfu:
Just wondering if folks with problems loading this ROM wiped the ext on their SD? Not even sure if it matters, but if you were on a ROM that has apps on the ext, would that cause any conflict on a new install? (noobie question)

So this has an aggressive memory management, eh? no wonder I can't keep Pandora running if I try to do pretty much anything (search maps, some times even texting will shut in down). Gonna give that memory manager app a try.
[G1 Android Development] speedysilwady:
thanks for the quick and helpful response! :) yeah im trying the Any SPL version. Oh renaming Swype to LatinIME.apk, why didnt I think of that? lol Well the reason I dont wanna leave it in is that LatinIME takes up 2mb and this themed swype takes around 1mb and Im trying to keep the filesize low for AnySPL. I think it's too big because it still gives me this in the logcat:

logcat
logwrapper( 58): executing /system/xbin/busybox failed: No such file or directory
logwrapper( 53): /system/xbin/busybox terminated by exit(255)

ill try deleting latinime and renaming swype. I already took out most of the audio files, so hopefully this will push it to fit on AnySPL

Thanks! =]
