Correction, 2.0.0 has 1 screen option.

I put a piece of tape across the battery and the chassis to hold it down :D

dropped my many times while the cover goes flying, the phone stays on.
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
I'm not sure what you guys are talking about. Is your worry that the back cover will come off when dropped and the battery will come out causing the phone to turn off? If so, what's the harm in that? I've had to pull the battery twice because of the phone freezing.
[G1 Android Development] he3:
Hey. Does voice search work? seriously. Please?
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
It works fine for me.
[G1 Android Development] TL@:
I have a weird problem. When I step into the car, the phone connects to my bluetooth kit, no problem there. But after a while it disconnects but on the phone it shows it's still connected, even when I leave the car.

When I turn BT off and on again, its good again for 2 days, then same problem again.

Anyone any ideas?
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Wow... I wouldn't even know where to begin with that. I don't even have a bluetooth headset, let alone a car kit.
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Usually it wouldn't have worried me... but at a concert I didn't want to have it get trampled.

The tape is a clever idea. What I really need to do is get a silicon skin for it... and a screen protector. I've been lagging on it. I had a Zagg full body protector for a little while, but putting it on the screen was tough and I couldn't live with the bubbles and tiny specks. I've read that even just a wide piece of packing tape works too.

adw launcher

Im running Cannons 202's rom. I have two launchers home and adw. How do I remove one of them? Also my phone has been really acting weird lately. A lot of static and FC. Should I just try to re-flash it? Thanks
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Looks like you have a couple things going on here...

For your launchers, if it's the ADW that was included with the ROM, I would suggest you first uninstall that (it's a little outdated now). Download the CM508-MDPI version... but don't try to install it yet, just leave it in the zip and put it in the root of your SD card.

Now, using your fave file manager w/root access, go to /system/app and either delete launcher.apk or move it to your SD for a backup. Without backing out of your file manager, reboot into recovery and flash the zip you downloaded - that is the most recent version of ADW, but setup as a system app. When you reboot normally, you'll now have only one launcher.

For the static... try the noise fix at the bottom of the FAQ page... and for the FCs, try going back into your recovery and running fix permissions.

If all else fails, use your fave app backup methods, copy your SD to your computer, and wipe & format everything fresh... that fixed a lot of issues when I did it a few weeks ago.
[G1 Android Development] jaleroca:
Ok thanks tsheeley. One other concern I have is since I have just flashed my phone with the rom just as it was, is there something else I should be aware of or will everything work fine. I'm sorry if this may seem a bit weird. I have gone over this thread twice and since I'm new to android( had an Iphone with T-mobile) I am not clear on a lot of things here. I'm just following along. :)
[G1 Android Development] flyers00:
Just wanted to let you know that it looks like the recovery image was corrupted, I re-flashed AMON RA 1.70 and everything was good to go afterwards.
[G1 Android Development] rumsey:
I can't seem to get any version of wifi tether to work in this rom, can someone who has it working post which version of tether you are using? Thanks in advance.

Nevermind, I got the newest version working. I uninstalled and reinstalled several times, what seemed to do the trick was uninstalling, booting to recovery, wiping cache, booting in to rom and reinstalling the new version. If anyone else has wifi tether issues, try wiping the cache and reinstalling.
[G1 Android Development] Gen00:
Whats up guys.. I dont know if anyone is getting this problem.. But lately ive been getting a few reboots.. that n some freezes not really any force closes.. I dont know if its my phone or anything but i wanted to bring it up since i wont be able to get the Galaxy S anytime soon n ill be keeping this phone for a while i gotta keep it running smooth.. If anyone has any thoughts it'll be great to hear it.. Hopefully maybe Cannons Froyo comes out then i wont have to worry about these problems..
[G1 Android Development] jaleroca:
Ok I am using astro file manager. When I try to delete launcher.apk, it says its not install or error. Plus how do I reboot without backing out of my file manager?
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
If you followed the flashing guide in my sig, then everything should be just fine... and even if you didn't it still should be. There really aren't any problems with Cannon's work... he puts in a good amount of time to make sure everything is stable before releasing it to the public. Don't be afraid to ask questions, even about small stuff. I tried to cover as much as I could in the FAQ and guides, but those are just my personal thoughts on things... and there are always other tweaks to be done that make it truly unique to your own style.

Sometime in the semi-near future, Cannon will be releasing his own build of FroYo... so keep an eye out for that as well, it should be quite good.

Awesome! Glad you got it worked out.
[G1 Android Development] Madmedik:
So far best rom I've flashed in a while, definitely a keeper for now until further update, but in 2.2.1, everything runs smoothly...
[G1 Android Development] t0nnn:
nvm, had a question about email....found my answer
[G1 Android Development] Gen00:
Any new news on Cannons Froyo?? How funny My lady dropped her MyTouch Slide cracked the screen n we are sending it out to get it fixed.. But for the mean time she is using my G1 so i took off CM6 RC2 n reflashed CE2.2.1 (Didnt want her to use CM6RC2 just incase there was bugs i didnt know about..) I wanted to give her something that i know works for sure.. She came home today after work n all she was talking about is how good the phone was working speed fast very smooth.. She was actually likely it better then the Slide she told.. Just wanted to mention to that.. She told me to tell Cannon GREAT JOB on the ROM.. lol.. Hopefully we'll be seeing Cannons Froyo soon i see he's still on Test 8 hopefully that will be his last test on it.. COME ON CANNON.. lol
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Make sure you set /system for rw... it more than likely is defaulted to ro. You can reboot by just holding down the power button and selecting Reboot... you don't need to be on the home screen to do it.
[G1 Android Development] Manny-:
After flashing the G1 with 2.2.1, the bootscreen (colourful X) just keeps on restarting.... :confused:

UPDATE: it seems the black theme caused it to reboot like that I flashed 2.2.1 again with wifi patch and it works now :)
[G1 Android Development] jaleroca:
@tsheeley... it doesn't work

I have tried all that yo have suggested, but I cannot remove the two home launchers nor can I add a new one. What am I doing wrong here. the error comes up like not allow or not installed or cant remove launcher apk.
[G1 Android Development] gyurman:
Don't boot

After install don't boot over first screen:

G1 T-mobile

Why? Which mod working? :confused:
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Follow the flashing guide in my sig. Everything runs perfectly.
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Same for you... follow the guide... it'll work.
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Have you tried using a different file manager? Both Estrong and Root Explorer can access /system... I personally have used RE to do this a couple of times now. You could also use the ADB commands in the FAQ, just substituting the proper apk names where needed.

If nothing else works, maybe you've got some sort of bad flash. Try reformatting your SD, wiping the phone and trying again... make sure you give it enough time after the first boot to get settled, and again after you flash the Google Apps (about 10 - 15 min should be enough).
[G1 Android Development] gyurman:
You need install DangerSPL & CyanogenMod 5/6 - CyanogenMod Wiki
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Which is also noted at the beginning of the lengthy FAQ.

Cannons Froyo ROM

Haven't been on this thread for a while, anyone know of any progress with Cannons Froyo ROM?
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Only that he's up to test 8 in his sig... but he's been on that one for a few weeks.
[G1 Android Development] gyurman:
Apps2SD => Market problem

Hello, I have probe for last 5.xxx8 version CM. But I see the apps2sd, and I tick it on setup, and I have a ext4 partition with some apps. These apps loaded well, but if I install any, I get error download or package file invalid. Why?

If i switch off the apps2sd everything working well. But I also cannot move.

Why?

How can I use it?
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Are you currently using CM? If so, I'd suggest asking in that thread.

If you're using CE... did you follow the flashing guide? Have you tried formatting your SD card, wiping your phone and starting completely fresh?

Remember, even tho CE is based on CM, it's still recommended that you wipe first. If you decided not to wipe, there are some fixes for apps2sd issues in the faq.
[G1 Android Development] Madmedik:
Wireless Tether ???

Can anyone help me, I've seen wireless tethering in other roms, is there one that works with this Rom and if so, would it be too much to ask where to get it...Thanks :o
[G1 Android Development] gyurman:
Missing some apps

When I finished install missing some apps. But if I install CM all is on good place.

Why?

It was wipe.
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
What was missing? Did you also try formatting your sd card when moving from CM?

Try to give as much info as possible... my crystal ball is in the shop this week.
[G1 Android Development] gyurman:
Ok, it is working.

in recovery console:

mount -a
df -h

And i see ext4 is too small. It was only 40 kb free space. Sorry
[G1 Android Development] sleepyfu:
here u go, 2.0.2 should work too.
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
While I haven't used it personally, the ROM I put on my fiance's newly rooted Cliq came with Barnacle Wifi Tether - the market and AppBrain reviews say really good things about it.
[G1 Android Development] phuzznut:
Hi, I'm new to this rooting stuff, and just loaded this rom and its working great! I do have one problem with it though. the phone is no longer detected over USB. I can't get to access the sdcard in windows, even with droid explorer. What am I doing wrong?

PS The only FR patch I was was "fixp" because that's the only thing that seemed to need running.
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
First off... welcome & congrats on your "new" phone.

After plugging into your computer, you should be able to pull the notification bar down and tell it to mount from there.
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Awesome! Glad to see you got it all sorted out.
[G1 Android Development] phuzznut:
Thanks!

The weird thing here is that I don't get the notification, I even used a widget to force "enable mass storage" but even when that shows up on the notification bar, windows just sits there without recognizing any hardware. The phone will charge from USB. I also verified these results on another PC.

I did use the instructions in this guide to set up the memory card among other things, would the funky partitions be screwing stuff up? /showthread.php?t=734617
[G1 Android Development] qwerty3656:
I had the same problem on a new Windows 7 laptop that I had not installed ADB (and the ADB drivers) on. You will find ADB useful anyway - try installing the SDK/ADB (and ADB drivers) on your computer. It can be somewhat of a headache to get your computer to use the ADB drivers once it has installed it's own. This link here provides some useful steps to make that happen. Just ignore the stuff not related to installing SDK.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=532719

(The first link I had wasn't to the site I was thinking of - this link is better - that program USBDeview comes in handy for installing the usb drivers after you have already mounted your phone)
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Is there a way to go back to the regular gallery app? The 3D gallery is cool, but it's too slow on the G1/MT3G. It makes dealing with pics a complete PITA. Does anyone know of a place to download the stock gallery APK and will it be compatible with CE2.2.1?
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
You could probably pull it from CM5... I think he uses the old one.

I don't find it slow at all... but then again, I barely have any pics on my phone. I'm sure if I had a lot it would make a difference.
[G1 Android Development] smurfgod:
Looks really cool..I'm doing my first boot now and man it's taking a while..Why do they take soooo long to do the first boot??

And I flashed...rom,wifi patch,black theme..then rebooted..that cool??
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Nope, not cool. Doing all of them at once like that will put you into a loop of the boot animation... you'll never actually boot to the desktop.

Follow the guide in my sig... that will get you running.
[G1 Android Development] smurfgod:
Yea I saw that about half way thru the flash..lol

I knda got I was on a loop about the third time I saw the boot animation load up..lol.. I just popped the battery out, did a whipe and reflahed following your guide..Went smooth as butter.

Very nice rom, very fast, AppstoSD work's flawlessly as well as everything else.

Thanks man..And I love the Black theme as well.
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Glad you got everything worked out. I decided to do the guide after I tried flashing everything at once the first time too.

Cannon should be having his build of FroYo done sometime in the semi-near future... once he works out all the bugs. We've already got it worked out for me to grab the first couple replies for the faq and guides - which should help make the process as smooth as possible from the start... we hope.
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Yeah, same here. It worked fine with only a few pictures, but now that I have over 50 on my SD, it's very laggy.

I ended up finding a flashable zip for the "2D" gallery on the CM forum, but the zip itself didn't work. The process I used is slightly tricky and involved manually pulling the APK from the zip and pushing it to /system/app. Now it works great! If anyone else wants the 2D gallery, let me know and I'll post the procedure.
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
If anyone is interested in a nice little upgrade, I'd recommend upgrading your Superuser app to version 2.3.1. It's as simple a flashing the zip and then re-allowing your apps SU permission. See here for the thread and downloads.
[G1 Android Development] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
Thanks for the heads up on this. Am I correct in assuming it doesn't matter what ROM you are on (using CM 508) as long as you flash the correct pastry version? Looks like a big upgrade to superuser and worthy of flashing.
[G1 Android Development] ryaninc:
Very nice, thanks for the heads up! Just flashed it and working nicely. Hopefully we see it start showing up in new ROMs soon. :-)
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
So how's the stability of the FroYo you're running? I'm not sure yet if my curiosity is going to get the better of me, or if I can stick it out and wait until Cannon releases his.
[G1 Android Development] ryaninc:
It's extremely stable and solid. Noticeably faster than Eclair in a number of areas, too. Curiosity definitely got the better of me, especially after I saw a friend demonstrate Chrome to Phone in action.

Froyo is still a bit hacky when it comes to apps2EXT. After the initial install, it takes a few tweaks and reboots to get it working, and even then it's mostly tricking the system into using the EXT partition. The system still thinks the apps are installed to /system, but the script redirects the install to EXT. But it's a solid workaround and definitely gets the job done. (Though you have a MT3G, right? So that's not an issue for you).

I love it, especially given how fast it is. Plus, now I get to use the Voice Actions app announced yesterday, which is very, very cool. :D

The ROM I use is Biffmod, and I stuck with it because it was the only one I could find that didn't have any theming or extra stuff. It's extremely fast, no bloat, and I like it a lot. (that being said, once Cannon releases his Froyo ROM, I'll almost definitely be giving it a try) :cool:
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Hmm. I might have to give it a try in a couple of weeks when I have some free time.

I wonder if the apps2sd is what's keeping Cannon from releasing his... it's not really a concern for me tho.
[G1 Android Development] Gen00:
Been having a few issues with my MT3G with Cannon 2.2.1 sometimes it just loves to lag out like go really slow n takes for ever for apps to open sometimes.. dont get me wrong when he comes out with Froyo im jumping on that as soon as it comes out been trying out CM6 RC2 for the G1 nothing really special its nice but im still waiting for Cannon to come out with one of his own to flash it on MT3G( Unless i can get the Galaxy S Vibrant before Cannon comes out with Froyo) Would like to try it out before i get my Vibrant.. Well hopefully things are going good with Cannon and the ROM is coming out smoothly from what i saw he's still on Test 8 n he's been on Test 8 for a while now so hopefully that'll be his last one before he launches Froyo.. All n All i cant wait for it..
[G1 Android Development] Cannon202:
*ANNOUNCEMENT*​

As you all know.I've been working on my Froyo ROM for quite a while now,making progress with every test version. Unfortunately I think I might have to cancel the Froyo project. I've been EXTREMELY busy lately with moving and other things and I just haven't had the time to work on the ROM. Plus with all the new froyo ROM's being released everyday I think it would be a bit cliche just to throw another one out, I just see no point...Well the good news is I haven't made my final decision yet so you guys still may have something to look forward to. I dont want to let anybody down so I just need all the encouragement and patience you guys have to offer.

Thank you
[G1 Android Development] Gen00:
Well Cannon I hope things go well maybe when you get time to start again u can just come back with a big bang..(Or just create a awesome ROM for the Galaxy S Vibrannt.. lol p.s. im getting it monday.. hahahhaha) just you know if you do decide to finish froyo ill probably go back and forth from Vibrant and the mT3G i dont know i think ill miss it..
[G1 Android Development] schnogg:
I've stuck with CaNNoN for a few months now because of the stability and features. I've been holding out on using a different Froyo waiting for CaNNoN. I will keep waiting until he gives up.
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
You've got my support and patience. If I knew how to code this stuff, I'd even help out.

I'm all wrapped up in other stuff too... like getting married today (the 20th) for instance... so I totally understand having to direct your energies elsewhere.

I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say that no matter what other FroYos we my try, we'll still be waiting with bated breath for news of yours.

In the meantime, I'll probably do some updates to the various guides... throwing in more of my 2¢ once all my stuff here has calmed down. I've actually been meaning to for a little while anyways. (and it'll help keep the thread alive)

Good luck with the move... and thank you for all the work so far.

Congrats, though, married life is great. Been married about 3 and a half years myself. :D
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Haha!

Actually, yeah, we kinda did have to take them apart. We had the reception in our apartment and spilling into our building's courtyard. We moved our computer desks into the bedroom... her desktop was the driver for the music inside and out, but it was hidden under a serving table.

Got to terminal emulator, and enter the commands:

I've tried resetting the battery stats....nothing....

Anyone know how to fix?
[G1 Android Development] sleepyfu:
do you have other modifications done to the rom? ie minfree, jit or whatever?. If you flashed the overclock kernel, it's probably the cause of shutdowns. I don't recommend running over 567mhz. 528 is ideal.

Can't get into settings

Whenever I try to go into settings, it shows up with a force close message

saying that the process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly.

I've tried reflashing with DangerSPL and everything else twice. What should I do?

I have a Mytouch 3g on t-mobile
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
First off, being that you're an a MT3G, you don't need to be flashing Danger. (It's noted on the FAQ).

How long did you let it sit and settle before trying to go into settings? Did you follow the flashing guide in my sig?
[G1 Android Development] smtrejo:
Fast and stable until now

Hi!

Well, I just want to share my testimony for those who are looking for an Android 2 fast and stable ROM.

In the past 2 weeks I've been testing some Froyo ROM's but I've experienced a strange problem on most of them where, for example, email sync got cycled forever blocking Gmail and SMS's notifications (Handcent Pop-Up window, even status bar notifications). That was very annoying because I didn't notice important messages on time (I'm in permanent contact with my girl via SMS). I was so disappointed that I wanted to go back to my old Android 1.5 Hero ROM which lasted more than 8 months on my G1 with no problems. So, as a last attempt to keep Android 2 on my phone, I found "CaNNoN Complete Eclair", but I was a little exceptic because I didn't know what was the difference between Froyo and Eclair. Anyway, I flashed the ROM 3 hours ago and it's working just as I want: I'm getting email/Gmail/SMS notifications on time and sync doesn't get stuck, I also noticed that screen transitions are faster than the Froyo ROM's I've tested, App2SD is automatic (once is enabled as indicated by the developer), and some other good things.

The only complain I have is that when I touch the clock widget on home screen it doesn't opens the "date/time & alarm" configurations, and I'd like to know what are the suggested configurations to improve battery life.

In general, I'm very satisfied with this ROM and if I had Paypal I'd definitely buy you a beer. :p

Thanks!!!

*I forgot to comment something very important: I've read that many Froyo users's are having trouble with Market when downloading/installing applications, downloads take very long and even if installation succeeds the application can't be found anywhere. With this ROM, applications download almost instantly, and as I mention above, the application goes directly to SD if the option is enabled.
