strange sd card behavior

This may or may not be related to the mod.

Sometimes I won't be able to open a single app, trying to do so causes a system crash(sorry I didn't get the logcat). When I reboot, in the notification area, it says blank sd card or unsupported filesystem. So I repartition and refromat, install all my apps again, which is a temporary fix. Then about a few days later it happens again. It a brand new pny 4 gb sd card. For the record I used to use swap on a swap partition before cm 5, I can't imagine that being the problem since the swap partition would be isolated from ext and fat partitions. What do you think?
[G1 Android Development] mrfust81:
Market error seems to be fixed- I found the solution (I think) HERE and involved simply entering *#*#2432546#*#* in the dialer. So far so good!
[G1 Android Development] androidmonkey:
The call log list duplicate names, in the past it only showed 1 name then you would click on that name to see when they called.

Is there a setting to change this that Im not seeing?
[G1 Android Development] Rindroid:
I have detected some glitch, then I plug G1 to PC, G1 don`t react on it (sometimes, reboot requared). Where is no such glitch in a donut (like SuperD). Any ideas?

call log/revert back to contacts 1.1

no difference for me after reverting back to wysie's 1.1, its still not grouping calls from same number in call log
[G1 Android Development] tnpapadakos:
5.0.8 solved this problem...
[G1 Android Development] _zygo_:
Yeah...Same result. I tried all of the different versions. The OP edited his post, but I have the same, non-grouped call log. Oh well. I got an email from the tracker that said Wysie might be working on this, so we'll see.
[G1 Android Development] Rindroid:
Yesteday I flashed 5.0.8 test 4, and the problem didnt disappear..
[G1 Android Development] tnpapadakos:
did you try rebooting the PC, too?
[G1 Android Development] Rindroid:
For what? Donut dont require any reboot.
[G1 Android Development] tnpapadakos:
ok, well, usb toggle always works in recovery mode (amon ra)

this hasnt happened to me for awhile now, i thought it was resolved, but im on mt3g

i guess you could always go back to donut if its bugging you that much, though:eek:

Just tried, I get exactly the same error as if I was flashing this Rom.
[G1 Android Development] zim2dive:
I created this error for myself once when I re-zip-aligned my first ROM.

Are you sure you are flashing the right file? It sounds like you have an incorrectly structured zip file.. when recovery (how are you flashing?) looks for the update script, it is not in the expected place.
[G1 Android Development] .Sam.:
I'm booting into recovery mode (Home + Power, right?). Alt + L to bring up the text, Alt + W, then Alt + S to update.

Live Wallpapers

THANK YOU Cyanogen, this is the 4th ROM i've put on my MT3G and by far the best, fastest, most stable and awesome ever.

only issue i have is this:

live wallpapers work but after locking the screen, they revert back to the last static wallpaper image. the only one that's stable is maps.

i searched the thread and only found the post at the bottom.

thoughts anyone?

[G1 Android Development] ttabbal:
Larger ones are probably getting killed as the phone runs out of RAM. I saw this and fixed it by enabling swap or compcache. Then I decided that LWP was sucking too much CPU and disabled it. :D
[G1 Android Development] zim2dive:
which recovery are you using? (I use RA 1.70)

I just scroll to the particular zip I want to flash (no need to rename anything.. keep the descriptive names) and off it goes.
[G1 Android Development] .Sam.:
I suppose I'm using the "regular" recovery.img

I'll change to the RA one, and see if it makes a difference :)

EDIT: To change recovery, do I just download the RA.img, rename it to recovery.img and replace the old one?
[G1 Android Development] kevingannon:
thanks for the info. i had to disable compcache because the home page was reloading every time exited an app. i'm still relatively new, how can i see the available RAM? should i use a task killer widget? when i look in the settings, Internal Available Space = 245MB. the phone is the 32B MT3G.

I see in first post of Amon_Ra the following text:

via terminal application installed on the phone :

•Requires root

•DO NOT use this method with CM5.0.7, there are currently some memory issues while flashing, use the above methods (preferably the fastboot method) instead until the issue is fixed in CM5.0.7!

My question is:

is this problem solved or can I flash the ROM over CM 4.2.15.1 withoud taking the newest recovery?

Thanks :)
[G1 Android Development] tnpapadakos:
you can flash 5.0.8 right over 4.2.15 using amonra

just remember to then flash the gapps.zip BEFORE rebooting, or you'll be posting about how you dont have any google apps

just to review:

copy 5.0.8test4 to your sdcard

copy gapps.zip to your sdcard

reboot into recovery

DO A NANDROID BACKUP

flash 5.0.8 test 4.zip using "flash any zip"

then flash gapps-ds-ERE36B.zip

reboot

wait till its done, it will take a few minutes

enjoy

Great Rom

Finally after wrestling in my own mind about it, I installed Cyanogenmod-5. I had gone back to stock after JF had quit doing customs. I knew Cyanogen had basically taken over JF's place, but I did have some stability issues with 1.5 and 1.6 so I decided just to go back to stock for a while and miss my bt working. Well, after the broken promises of Android 2.x on the G1, I have come back and am so glad I did. Excellent work by all involved. I'm not saying I haven't hit a few hiccups here and there, but all in all it works as well or better than stock 1.6.
[G1 Android Development] feronovak:
Does it sometimes happens to you that if you call or someone calls you you can answer the phone but you have complete silence like call wasnt connected? Other side of call cant hear anything either. I have to reboot to get phone work properly again.
[G1 Android Development] .Sam.:
Thanks a lot man, you were a great help.

I managed to set up the ADB and fastboot, then proceeded to install the recovery (it took a while with fastboot, I didn't realise I had to target the file from my own system, I expected it to find it in the SDcard root). It flashed the ROM without any trouble, and everything seems to be running smooth so far.

bug

thats a bug thats supposed to have been fixed in the new test roms. im not sure if it has though. fyi the bug starts whenever u use the factory installed camera. so if u dont use it u wont have that problem.
[G1 Android Development] FiReBReTHa:
haha

Ok, so its a Kernal for usage in the the Magic, (which confused me because we are in the G1 forum)

or its the Magic's Kernal, for usage in our G1s?

LoL, see how I got confused!!?
[G1 Android Development] spongaweb:
Whewww had a last couple intense couple days with the .8 T4, overloaded it by running too many apps and it did a soft restart. Than it started acting strangely and randomly the whole screen goes black, pushing buttons does nothing and than I just push the power button to start it up again.

Application behavior has been screwy since I haven't been using swap anymore, I think I am going to turn swap on again because the G1 just cannot multi task whatsoever.

I will try to post a recovery log but I have done so many reinstalls since last night it might not be there.

Streamfurious seems to run out of memory quickly also.
[G1 Android Development] TheAdictsPunk:
Yeah man it happened to me the other day! it sucked bad cos they keep calling and calling and your phone starts lagging (especially because you initiated the factory camera) and then restarting takes a while. But yeah, noticed it did happen right after i used the camera.

I'm using a t-mobile mytouch 3g running cyanogen mod 5.0.8 test4 so its not just g1's having the problem.

I had the same thing happen to me today, although I wasn't completely sure what caused it, if you look closely though, the screen is not completely black, its actually showing the boot logo without the back-light :/ I should probably have let it go for awhile to see if it booted back up, but I wasn't really thinking much about it at the time. I just pulled the battery and rebooted and it ran fine from there. the only thing I had changed was I started using an auto task killer about ten minutes before.

it hasn't happened again, and I've been running it pretty hard.

I really love this rom :)

its the best I've run yet.

[G1 Android Development] Tom in AZ:
Deuse, Just wanted to get back to you on this.... I was thinking, I never went and checked on my Cache setup.... So I downloaded a cache cleaning app and I went from 24mb of free RAM to 45mb of free RAM. Then I went and grabbed the Cache to SD app and installed it. Hopefully this will keep me going well now until T-Mobile releases something nice like the Galaxy S Pro. It is time to order up a 16gb MicroSD Class 6 at this point and be ready for the next phone.

Just wanted to say, lately I've really been seeing some good stuff here, lots of newbies being helped and not fired on. Keep it up gang!

Hi all

This will be my first mod install. My phone is a stock USA 1.6 G1 at the moment (not even rooted yet), but i'm sick of the email bug, so i'm ready to do this.

I've got about 10 different tabs open in my browser with various things i need to do, and i'm rapidly losing track of what steps to take and when.

Is there a soup-to-nuts list of steps to take to go from a stock phone to this mod? For instance, in the OP here, it just says "wipe" for step 4, but i'm worried that if i follow some random instructions around here, i'll screw something up. I've searched, but all i can come up with is bits and pieces, and i'm afraid that if i start guessing and assembling, i'll make a mistake somewhere.

Can someone link me to a more verbose set of upgrade instructions?

thanks!

So, as usual. I wiped data, ext, and Dalvik.

Flashed CM5, rebooted right back into recovery.

Flashed Gapps and rebooted.

and, as usual, everything works 100%

I have no issues what-so-ever.

Why flash over a previous rom it takes 5 minutes to wipe and flash a new clean Rom.

It makes no sense to me. Doing it this way I have never had any issues.

[G1 Android Development] Tom in AZ:
Since I cleared the cache and moved it to the SD Card the phone has had a solid 45mb of free RAM and running pretty darn great (the best it has ever been since buying it) on the 5.0.7 stable.

On thing I did notice since I have installed this ROM is that the MIC is really picking up everything around me. My friends and family always ask were I was at. If the radio in the car is down low they hear it as if it is turned up, and the air conditioning is like I am in a wind tunnel. Is there a way or an app to turn down the MIC gain a little?

Also, are the 5.x.x roms going to be offered in the CM Updater? I am only given the 4.x.x to DL within it.

OK, never posted here before because I've always been able to figure things out based on what everyone else has already posted. But I have to figure out the battery drain issue on my G1 with CM5 (i've tried 5.0.7 stable and all of the 5.0.8 test versions.) I guess I can't be sure it's always been the same problem, but I've had much worse battery drain than on CM4. Yes, I've seen the post to replace your battery, but that doesn't seem like it's it, because I can reflash CM4 and go right back to having 1/2 battery by the end of the day. With CM5 I don't make it half the day without it being completely dead, and that's even if I don't use it much. When I go into battery history->other usage, it usually shows it as running between 70 and 90% of the time. And if I look at usage statistics, ADW launcher is at the top and running for several hours. It doesn't seem to me that the Launcher should have hardly any usage. I have the box unchecked to keep it in memory. I've seen other people that say they no longer have problems and I want to know what's different, cause I really like 5.0.8, but I really need it to last me all day too. Only 3rd pary apps I have on right now is KeyPassDroid and Aldiko (and gapps of course) and I did complete wipe when I installed the last time. Have tried resetting battery stats after full charge. Have unchecked notifications in market.
