Ive been thinking of taking off the regular launcher and replace it with ADW Launcher can someone explain to me how to do so?? That'll be great..

I tried this code on Terminal:

$ su

# cd /system/app

# rm Launcher.apk

# mv ADW.Launcher.0.7.7_standalone.apk Launcher.apk

when i enter # rm launcher.apk it says

rm: remove 'Launcher.apl'? <------ what do i put at this point su or yes? when i typed in yes it told me: rm: can't remove 'launcher.apk': Read-only file system

It ask the same question after i put in:

# mv ADW.Launcher.0.7.7_standalone.apk Launcher.apk

mv:: overwrite 'Launcher.apk'? <----- The same thing what do i put su or yes?

Can some one help so i can take off the original Home and have my ADW as default not worry about the original home running in the back ground.. thanks
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Uninstall the Market version, and then flash THIS in recovery. ;) Enter these commands to remove the included ADW if you're already on CE2.2.1:

su
mount -o rw,remount /system
rm -r /system/app/ADW.Launcher.0.7.7_standalone.apk
exit
exit
[G1 Android Development] Gen00:
So pretty much goto market remove ADW Launcher enter this code in Terminal then reboot into recovery and flash that program you gave me.. n that will replace my home launcher?? is that correct in that order?

which one do i download HDPI or MDPI
[G1 Android Development] Warsyndicate:
How would i go about making launcher pro the default home standalone launcher?
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Actually you cannot remove ADW through the Market (the buttons at the bottom are greyed out). Just enter those terminal commands, and then reboot into recovery and flash that zip. G1/MT3G users want the MDPI version.
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
mount -o rw,remount /system
mv /data/app/XXX.apk /system/app/Launcher.apk

Enter that, where "XXX" is the name of Launcher Pro's apk (I don't use it, so I'm not sure what it is).
[G1 Android Development] Warsyndicate:
Oh ok thank you! =D Launcher pro beta is another great home replacement on par with adw try it out sometime its on the market =D.

Camera

I can't seem to get my camera to work with any 2.1 ROM. Can anyone help? Whenever I try to open the camera app it opens fine and everything but where it should be showing the camera it's just black. I had this problem with CM v5.0.7 and messaged Cyanogen about it and he said it was my radio and that I could either downgrade it or wait for v5.0.8. I have downgraded my radio and it still isn't working. Anyone know what I can do to get it working?

when ever I boot into FastBoot the info that comes up is

DREAM PVT 32B ENG S-OFF
HBOOT-1.33.2005 (DREA10000)
CPLD-4
RADIO-2.22.23.02

My phone info

Phone: G1
SD:Class 6 8GB Fat 32/Ext3/Linux-Swap
ROM:Complete Eclair v.2.2.1

thank you in advance for any and all help offered and let me know if you need anymore of my phones info.
[G1 Android Development] Gen00:
Cool going to try it now.. im going to do a backup first then try it.. enter the command code first then reboot n flash that in recovery.. thanks teejay..
[G1 Android Development] Ampicillin:
Thanks bro but i cant get recovery option when switching buttons .. but i didn't try fastboot .. i'll try it if it works :)
[G1 Android Development] Gen00:
Teejay worked perfectly.. thanks alot..
[G1 Android Development] MattDrumz:
Just flashed this ROM.. I like it a lot so far. Glad I flashed it. :D
[G1 Android Development] AnGeL_WiT_SiNs:
great rom

i flashed this rom earlier and man oh man it works real smooth..handcent starts up quickly, when pushing the call button off home screen dialer pops up real quick as well...loving this rom..along with that cyanoch theme...Perfect :D

Great work cannon!
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Glad I could help. :)

Just bad timing I guess, but Cloverdale just released ADW 0.7.8 as a flashable zip. See here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6744387&postcount=1586
[G1 Android Development] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
That is definitely worse than I was experiencing. Have you tried the new optimized zip and see what happens there?

That's good to hear. Can you point me out to the exact path to get to that ringtones. I know you have left us None Danger SpL'ers (We'll miss ya! lol) so I guess you have done all this for nothing now huh? Maybe I will take the plunge myself, but for now I'mma rock out with my stock out.

Appreciations for doing this. Might give it a go this weekend and see if it works for me this time. Regardless, thanks for listening to the small minority having issues.
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Yeah, even though it's great that ROMs like CE don't require Danger, I got sick of the limitations the stock SPL imposes...things like having to delete ringtones just to use the black theme, etc. As you may have read earlier in the thread, even the "optimized" version of 2.2.1 still didn't work for me on the stock SPL. Cannon said in the future he will optimize in further so I'm sure eventually it will fit. For future reference, ringtones are stored in /system/media/audio. There are separate folders there for ringtones and notification sounds.
[G1 Android Development] jonbron:
This rom has been working perfectly on my G1 except for the fact that its auto-shutdown on me twice so far during routine phone use. The worst part is that it's acting like the battery's died and wont turn back on unless I plug it in to a power source. What's the deal?
[G1 Android Development] Ampicillin:
Hello G1 User here - first when flashing ROM What i should flash first ?

i mean Danger SPL Or Radio Or Update.zip ? :confused:

Please can anyone Guide me about flashing Procedure..
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Unfortunately, you're not the first person to report this issue with 2.2.1. This person reported the same thing. I've never heard of a ROM causing that problem...it's usually a battery thing, but it's more than one person now since 2.2.1 was released. I'll be keeping an eye on mine.
[G1 Android Development] androidnoobS:
i needs help ... anyone ... thanks

su

mount -o rw,remount /system

rm -r /system/app/ADW.Launcher.0.7.7_standalone.apk

exit

exit

when i enter rm -r /system/app/ADW.Launcher.0.7.7_standalone.apk, it repeats back to me but with a question mark as if it was asking me if i really wanna do this. the cursor stays on the same line after it repeats back the command, and i'm kinda lost now. i hit 'return' and exited terminal but it didn't remove it. what do i do ... help :confused: .... this is what terminal gives back to me ....

rm: remove '/system/app/ADW.Launcher.0.7.7_standalone.apk' ?
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
That can easily be found by searching.

- flash the 2.22.23.02 radio

- flash DangerSPL

- flash the main ROM zip and then gapps, reboot

- flash Wi-Fi patch, reboot

- flash black notification bar patch (optional)
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
You shouldn't get any response after entering each command. Did you enter 'su' for superuser permissions? Have you already flashed the ADW system version? Are you sure you entered the commands exactly?
[G1 Android Development] androidnoobS:
thanks for the quick response

i first tried removing it before flashing the flashed ADW version. then i flashed the ADW flash version and tried again. this is exactly what my terminal shows me:

$su

# mount -o rw ,remount /system

mount: mounting ,remount on /system failed: No such file or directory

# rm -r /systems/app/ADW.Launcher.0.7.7_standalone.apk

rm: remove '/system/app/ADW.Launcher.0.7.7_standalone.apk' ?

and this is where i'm stuck :(
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
The first command should be "mount -o rw,remount /system" (no space after the 'rw'). Other than that, I don't know why it wouldn't work or why it would say /system doesn't exist.
[G1 Android Development] androidnoobS:
ooohhh i did have a space ...

:o much thanks bro!! i'm gonna retry right now!!! thanks again

edit: thanks TeeJay!! it worked! you saved me from punching my roommate in the face :D
[G1 Android Development] Jboere:
Flashing on my G1

I downloaded the file but how do I flash it to my g1

Please Help:confused:
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
You gotta give us more info than that... I'm assuming your phone is already rooted?

If it is, simply boot into recovery, flash the main ROM zip, flash the gapps zip, reboot, flash the Wi-Fi patch, reboot, and then optionally flash the black bar patch.
[G1 Android Development] khmerkid:
i tried flashing this rom, it keeps boot looping... i tried repartitioning reflash wipe everything... still boot looping... any help?
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Tell your roommate, no prob!

That's because of the order in which you're flashing the files. After flashing the main ROM and Gapps zips, you must let the phone boot before flashing the Wi-Fi patch. Flashing the Wi-Fi patch before the first boot will cause the boot loop you're experiencing. tsheeley will be updating his FAQ post tomorrow with info such as this.
[G1 Android Development] Ampicillin:
All right Thanks Bro .. :D gonna give a try
[G1 Android Development] eNNtOXX:
am i the only one getting:

"the process com.google.gapps has stopped unexpectedly. please try again"

i don't have any sync what so ever now...

do you think i need to flash the 2.22.23.02 radio?
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
No, FCs aren't caused by the radio, although I would certainly flash the new radio anyway. Try running fix permissions and see if the problem goes away (enter "fix_permissions" in Terminal).
[G1 Android Development] nowusman:
Do I need to update kernal?

Hi,

I have HTC Magic Sapphire.. below are specs:

SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H

HBOOT-1.33.0008 (SAPP10000)

CPLD-12

RADIO-3.22.20.17

Are there any steps to install this rom? (I mean like cyanogen have given).

Do I need to apply a different kernal / base image before installing this ROM?

rgds

Usm
[G1 Android Development] eNNtOXX:
i updated the radio over my old one

i ran "fix_permissions"

i got a long list of:

"busybox: permission denied"

all of my Market apps are stuck on "Starting Download"

my contacts & calendar won't sync either

i'm stummped
[G1 Android Development] eNNtOXX:
NEVER MIND...

i re flashed and started from scratch

all syncs fine and works great now

this time i flashed G_Apps after flashing ROM prior to reboot

may have something to do with it

everything works and looks great and i am very impressed with this cook

great job cannon
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
Launcher

it says "Read-only" because it is read-only .. you must first remount the system to make changes

# busybox mount -o rw,remount /system
[G1 Android Development] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
Yeah the limitations can be, well, limiting. I know I should just go ahead and do it, but I being burned before has me twice shy. I am concerned about the optimized version not working for you. I want to give it a go, but I'd hate to full wipe for nothing either, seeing as I too had issues previously. I'll probably flip a coin. lol

I actually forgot to ask previously, is the Black Theme(Patch) re-optimized as well?
[G1 Android Development] s1n3rgy:
So i did everything yesterday.

Danger installed

Cannon2.2.1 is getting installed as we speak. Waiting at the new fancy loading screen. I know this should take about 15 to 20 mins from what i have read.

Ill let you all know after im done.

Thanx again for taking the time to help me....

Edit: Man does it take long to load after installing 2.2.1 on my HTC Dream... but none the less atleast i got this far lol....
[G1 Android Development] s1n3rgy:
Hey Teejay how long did it take for the phone to start completly. After doing everythign and installing DangerSpl i was in my phone. Today when i got to work i downloaded Cannon's 2.2.1 rom installed it everything went well now im stuck in the nexus type loading screen. Its been like that for about 45 mins.. Did i do something work or is my phone still trying to load or what not?

How long did it take you to get in your phone and set it up?

Thanx in advance
[G1 Android Development] myronic:
Sorry to clutter up this thread with nothing but praise, but Cannon (& FireRat) - you two have completely outdone yourselves with this latest version. While I had some nagging problems with 2.0-2.2 that made me go back & try CM5tests (very briefly), this build has been absolutely flawless, from gVoice to Gallery3D to battery life & speed. Hands down the best ROM going. I don't know how you did it, but I'm sure glad you took your time to release this masterpiece. Thank you and all who helped save my broke ass from being stuck with a subpar & obsolete phone. Viva el Android! :-)

Please read over the FAQ post in my sig. That covers pretty much everything. This SHOULD work on your 32A phone, but you'll need to get the 32A patch... there is a link in the FAQ to a post with the details.
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
I'm in the middle of updating the FAQ. I'll get as much done as I can, but I'm also home sick... so don't expect too much interaction from me today.
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
So you did the radio update, then danger... now you've flashed the newest copy of 2.2.1 and it's stuck?

Are you trying the same 2.2.1 you downloaded earlier yesterday, or is it the newer optimized version Cannon did yesterday?

Either way, 45 min is way too long. If you watch the animation, is it totally smooth, or does it stop and then start over with the 4 orbs converging in the center? It shouldn't start over at any point.
[G1 Android Development] s1n3rgy:
Nice i know what i did wrong now and redid it to work. So the problem i was having was i installed the update 2.2.1 but instead of the appstore fix i installed the black theme then appstore. After reboot device then installing update / appstore i am currently in my phone. Its pretty fast man.. Now its time for themes.

who wants to help me with that ;) lol j/k
[G1 Android Development] s1n3rgy:
Yeah it was stoping and starting.. So i just redid it from scratch again whip / install cannon update then installed app. worked like a charm was actually fast getting in. Now im installing the black theme.

In the phone thanx everyone again for the help...
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Awesome!

Be sure to turn on Apps2SD from Settings -> Applications before you start installing the bulk of your apps. You should probably do it right after flashing the base and Google apps once the first boot is done.

G1s fill up very fast due to their limited internal memory. Did you format your SD card with an ext partition?
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Try doing the battery calibration procedure discussed in the troubleshooting section at the bottom of this page.
[G1 Android Development] s1n3rgy:
Apps2SD is actually grayed out i am unable to select it. also when i hook up my phone to my pc i dont get the mount to pc pop anymore on my phone.. Kinda wired might have to format it.
[G1 Android Development] killermaze:
I was running CE before

TYPE: HTC Dream/G1 Black

SPL: Not sure what type I have installed- Can you direct me where to find this information?

ROM: Eclair 2.1

RECOVERY: Amon_RA 1.3.2

Kernel: 2.6.33.4 cynnn

APP2SD: I removed all the Ext partitions or any partitions. I believe I was advised to do so when the thread first open.
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Ahh... that might be your problem. G1s have very limited internal memory, you've probably filled it up.

You should repartition your SD card to have at least an ext section (linux-swap is optional). Then do a complete wipe, flash the 2.2.1 base, flash the Google Apps, reboot normally and do the Google setup, turn off Google Backup when you get to that screen, turn on Apps2SD from Settings -> Applications, reboot to recovery, flash the wifi fix, reboot normally, then back into recovery and flash the black theme (if you want it).

For the partitioning, the RA recovery has a really slick tool built into it... you might have to upgrade to the newer version though.

You can find out your SPL and radio info from fastboot... see the guide here.
[G1 Android Development] TheLaughingMan:
ADW is gross :P you should go back to including LauncherPro instead
[G1 Android Development] n3rdftw:
i'm not too sure if its been stated before in this thread, but a quick search didnt help me

usually everything is great, however, occasionally, after the phone has been on for, say a day or so without a reboot, i lose the ability for "mount sd card" when connected via usb, and lose the ability for USB tether. However, a reboot will fix this issue everytime, but after another few hours, i will lose the option again.

is there some sort of fix for this?
[G1 Android Development] s1n3rgy:
hey how do i install themes for 2.2.1.. Also what would be the best app to download to install apk files form sdcard.

sorry about that guys i know this isnt the correct form but i had to ask...

Edit: better yet what are the best apps to use for 2.2.1
[G1 Android Development] TheLaughingMan:
I recommend Astro for file management (which can install from SD card as well)

In terms of apps, well that's all personal preference. As it's been stated, Swapper2 is a good one (so you can actually enable this feature). I always install Advanced Task Killer on every ROM I install and the rest are just ones that I play around with. If you're wanting to play around with CPU clock speeds, you can get SetCPU (you have to pay, but it's not much)
[G1 Android Development] sleepyfu:
Made a little quick vid here to show you how to keep just one Launcher without ADB or Terminal or what have you..

and a boot screen/splash update as well.

[YOUTUBE]csVfINXq0k8[/YOUTUBE]
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
You can flash the black theme from your RA recovery... just do it like you did all the others.

For a file manager... I highly recommend Root Explorer from the market. As the name suggests, it gives you access to all the root folders as well... but, if you don't want that kind of power at your fingertips, I also recommend EStrongs File Explorer from the market.

"Best apps" is a pretty open question... and everyone will have their own opinion. It really depends on what use you want to get out of your phone.

For SMS I prefer Handcent... my fiance loves Chomp. Most folks love Dolphin for their web browsing. I'm also a freelance computer tech on the side, so I love having easy remote access to my home computer using PhoneMyPC (then I can use LogMeIn Free from my home PC to remote into my clients) and Wifi Analyzer for troubleshooting network issues.

It's pretty much a trial and error system to find the best apps that work for you.

Edit: EStrongs File Explorer now has root access... per sleepfu's video above (awesome job btw).
[G1 Android Development] TheLaughingMan:
Alright so I'm up and running on 2.2.1 now, but I'm having some problems :(

I flashed the ROM, then Wifi, then gAPPs, then Black

My problem is with wifi. I'm getting assigned an IP address from my wireless network, but I can't get to any sites with browser, can't access market, can't ping other devices on network using terminal :(
[G1 Android Development] brianius:
do you have a g1 or 3g? with my magic no problems here - maybe wipe all again and reinstall rom-wifi-gapps ;)
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
Do you have any other wireless devices setup on your network? Can any of them get out to the internet?

I'm not really sure what would cause this.
[G1 Android Development] TheLaughingMan:
Yeah, everything else on the network is just fine :(

And brianius, I got a G1.
[G1 Android Development] brianius:
I do have a problem with 3d! on cannon 2.1 and before i played speedx 3d (should work on all android phones) without any problems. Now it's very laggy and i have wrong textures, no textures and other graphical errors...maybe something has changed on the 3d driver?

thx in advance! ;)

edit: link to game: http://www.cyrket.com/p/android/com.beepstreet.speedx/
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
This seems to be a common problem with Eclair ROMs... to my knowledge, there is no fix yet... it's been reported that this is a problem when using a wall charger. Your best bet is to reboot daily... I was doing that anyways first thing in the morning, and I only charge via the USB on my computer. My phone sits right next to my 5th gen iPod on my desk at home. ;)

If you don't already have the EXT partition setup on your SD card, you'll have to reformat it. You can pull down the notification bar when connected via USB and there is an option there to mount it.
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
I had SpeedForge and Replica Island on mine, and noticed the lag as well. I don't really use my phone for gaming though - that's what the PS3 and Wii are for. I only had them on as "showcase apps" to show off how cool Android was if anyone asked.

I'm at a total loss then. I'm sorry. Maybe wipe and reflash? I hadn't setup the wifi yet on my phone... I just did now... no issues for me.
[G1 Android Development] brianius:
Hell Yeah! :D

I'll sell my magic these days to a friend - maybe will go back to 2.1 again :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] T.C.:
I am having a problem with notification sounds.

Either I am a noob or I am missing something.

In the E-mail client (not g-mail) you can set the notification sound for when you get a new mail. Well I set the notification sound to "cricket" and the notification sound in the system-settings to "ta da". and even after setting them to different sounds, when i get an e-mail it still plays "ta da" regardless of the tone i set in the e-mail program.

Phone: T-mob G1 rooted and with Danger SPL

Rom: Cannon202 CE (v2.2.1)

Swap:32mb

compcache enabled

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

[G1 Android Development] skarboy:
I waited about 10 minutes now.

I think im stucked too.

the anySPL is still not working fine with 2.2.1
[G1 Android Development] TheLaughingMan:
Yea, DangerSPL is definitely looking like it's more and more necessary with 2.2.1
[G1 Android Development] tsheeley:
I've been updating the FAQ with new info for 2.2.1 all morning....... I need to have SOMETHING to do while I'm home sick. ;)

I'm also right in the middle of writing up a complete flashing guide. I'll have it done sometime in the next couple of hours.
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
So I have been running 2.2.1 since it was posted and I haven't had any real major issues with it, but I have had a few slow downs. Specifically when I open my keyboard on my G1....there are times where it takes upwards of five seconds to rotate the screen.

I have swap setup via the fire rat patch and my swap partition (256mb).

I can see it is using 160mb out of my 256mb on my swap partition.

Is it possible that my SDCARD is causing the slowness? Anyone else getting the flip the keyboard open lag? It's a pain when you text a lot like myself.
[G1 Android Development] LucidREM:
Desk Clock

so one thing i have noticed .. if you set alarms with deskclock the alarms do not register with the phone .. they still go off but the phone does not show them in the notification bar or lock screen .. does anyone know if replacing the default alarm.apk with deskclock.apk would cause a problem with the system? i am going to test it out .. we have already successfully replaced the default launcher.apk so i am imagining no problems .. thus deskclock would then take over the alarms but would the system register their existence
[G1 Android Development] Gen00:
Oh man can i just flash that on top of what i aleady flashed?
[G1 Android Development] TheLaughingMan:
I reflashed the Wifi patch again and now I'm up and running :) that must have been what it was.

Might want to add that to the FAQ, tsheeley.

"When in doubt or if WiFi isn't working, reflash the patch" :D lol

or maybe it needs to be done very last after rebooting competely once
[G1 Android Development] Gen00:
I think thats what you messed up on its suppose to be ROM then GAPPS then wifi patch then Black Theme..
