Im positive this is user error, but i switchrom -r my cyan5.0.7 and wiped and when i reinstalled, everything works great but i cant su anything, my wireless tethering doesnt work nor does using su from teh console. any ideas?
[G1 Android Development] damngood98:
handcent will do that if you have the voice data on your phone. use it all the time
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
by default the google backup/restore is on

so when you reinstall and signin your previous settings/apps are restored, if one of those settings is 'broken' you will get problems again

to see if thats the problem,

settings --> privacy , untick "backup my settings"

give it some time to sync up with google, and then wipe and reflash
[G1 Android Development] Babaki:
youre complaining that it went from 47 to 42?
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
do you know what a memory leak is?

I don't think you do, google it.

it is normal for data to be used when you install apps ( even if a2sd is used )

turn a2sd off uninstall an app on sd, then reinstall, you will see a great deal more of data being used

cache cleaners are handy, but to be honest pointless, caches will just get rebuilt the. apps are caching so they don't need to keep downloading borng stuff over and over again

Hi, some people told me they hear me so bad, with breaks when I talk softly. I tried the echovoice.zip but the problem persist. With CM 4.2.15.1 I had the same problem but I fixed it with a small zip with three .csv configuration files. Should I try the same zip? I dunno if being for 1.6 will work for 2.1. My phone is a Vodafone HTC Magic.

Sorry for my english :P

Unable to add new event on calendar

.

Hi, as the title says, when I open calendar and click on New Event, screen turns black for a second and then goes back to calendar.

However I can add new events by logging on to my gMail on the computer which does show on the calendar events on my G1.

It was working fine up until today morning and now it doesn’t after I restarted the phone.

Does anyone know the solution for this problem?

Thank you,

Please help

hey guys ive have searched my @ss off and if this has been covered i do apologize but i really have been searching for hours and im lost.

im getting a force close when i try to go into the widgets menu... the application settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped etc etc. i dont have this problem at first when i install. it seems to pop up at diff times (or i just haven't noticed what the real cause is) but when it does it wont go away after that except for one time it did do it then stopped but it came back again... i have installed with just wiping and it came on quick then i rewiped, formatted my ext, and cleared my cache etc and installed it again and everything seemed to work fine for a while. i reinstalled everything from the market and everything was working fine but all of the sudden it started up again when i hadn't even changed anything.... i tried re flashing, restarting, fix_permissions, no theme, killing all apps and nothing... i really dont want to wipe everything and start all over again if it seems like it will just happen again... any ideas? im tempted to uninstall all widgets but eveything worked at one point and there were no recent installs that i can think of...

any help is really appreciated. i love this rom but this widget thing is very tough to deal with. i have backups i can try going back to but it seems like this will just happen again so if anyone has a better idea please help.

[G1 Android Development] My1es:
Any idea how long it generally takes when rebooting after the flash? I know it says longer than normal but it's been at least 5-10 minutes. Just sitting at the G1 screen. I followed the directions in the Wiki.

I have a G1 with Radio 2.22.19.26I that was running on 4.2.5.xx or whatever it was. I followed these steps to a "T". And loaded the new kernal cause I wasn't sure if I need it or not. I did a nandroid backup so hopefully I can reverse all this? Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks
[G1 Android Development] samsci:
Not sure on the stable version, but on prior Test versions, with installing Gapps on the MyTouch it took mine roughly about 4 - 5 minutes for a full boot. But it will vary.
[G1 Android Development] My1es:
Should I just continue to wait? At what point should I try and reboot the phone? Can I rebooting back into recover mode or is it bricked?
[G1 Android Development] 2rz_taco_sr5:
for me this is one of the quickest booting versions ive ever had... even the first time wasnt any more than 3-5 mins i wanna say...
[G1 Android Development] My1es:
Mine is still just sitting at the G1 screen. So I'm more than likely bricked?
[G1 Android Development] samsci:
This Rom WILL NOT brick your phone. If you followed the directions like you said, everything should be ok. You can reboot back into recovery and try again. Also, check the download to make sure it is correct as well, just to play it safe.
[G1 Android Development] My1es:
Is there any way to to load files onto the root of the sd from recovery mode. I want to reload the radio just to make sure. But I verified I had the correct radio before I started downloading everything.
[G1 Android Development] My1es:
I've also just tried rebooting and it is still stuck at the G1 Screen. Should I remove the battery?
[G1 Android Development] rudeguy:
yes but only after waiting 15+ minutes. It can take a while.
[G1 Android Development] My1es:
Yeah it's been well over 30+ minutes. I took the battery out and got it to boot into recovery mode. Any suggestions on what I should do now? Resore latest back up, verify I have all the correct files and try again?

EDIT: Did some searching and got everything figured out.
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
can you post a logcat?
[G1 Android Development] qw3rty3:
My battery drained super fast with this rom. I ran test 1 for a while, then test 3 and had no issues. I read about other people having battery problems. I updated from test 3 to this version and the battery drained in between 12 - 20 hours. Not sure exactly cause I was asleep. Its an extended battery and usually lasts over 48 hours. Something is definitely wrong.
[G1 Android Development] My1es:
Got it all straightened out thanks!
[G1 Android Development] NJAZ:
Glad you got it figured out. I know how it can feel to be in panic mode because I've been there!

Folks remember to read and re-read procedures and try to remember your issue is more than likely not unique. With that, there is an answer out there and searching Android forums and Googeling will 99% of the time get your issue resolved.

Definitely not dissing anyone, I just want new members to know that there is no need to panic unless you have really done all that you can do to resolve the issue in the most constructive and informative way.

Battery life with this ROM:

I have started using setCPU to use stock maximum CPU values (352MHz) and I am not having any performance issues at all. Getting about 5 to 6 extra hours out of the battery by doing so. There is absolutely no need for an OC kernel with this build. If I really feel I need to boost performance I will push setCPU up to a higher value. I have not needed to do so in 3 days once. Give it a try ... or not.
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
I second this

OC on this ROM is pointless, all it will do is get you a higher benchmark, ( whoopy dooo ) and introduce instability.

Same goes for JIT, pointless benchmarks, lol..
[G1 Android Development] skrki:
You should never pull the battery, unless absolutely necessary. You have the option to reboot holding Call+Menu+End.

The amount of time is hardly equal for everyone, and you should not listen to vague posts telling you "15+ minutes...". Instead, plug it into a USB port, run "adb logcat" from your computer, and see if your device is stuck (or looping), or it just needs more time. I see you have figured it out, so this is just for future reference.
[G1 Android Development] samsci:
You need to check to see if there are any applications you have running in the background since the upgrade. If you are running SetCPU, you can also setup a profile for sleep mode to turn down the mhz.
[G1 Android Development] engagedtosmile:
I am unable to mount to my PC through USB. My PC doesn't even recognize it.
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
well, read stuff and get the right drivers

search for android commander, it has tutorials attached
[G1 Android Development] rbaggio00:
im having kind of the same issue, it allowes me to mount but then says "no SDcard detected, application cant run normly" and i know the card is there and i reformated also and nothing, but if i use a SD reader it works fine,
[G1 Android Development] engagedtosmile:
i have read stuff and I am able to mount fine in Recovery and any other rom that is not based on CM5.0.7

Does this ROM require special drivers or something?
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
what are you trying to do?

list your steps!!!
[G1 Android Development] illmatic282:
i have the same pop up about the no sd card detected, but it only happens to me when i reboot the phone, but it goes away and doesn;t seem to effect my phone.

however, i am having problems with downloading apps from market. it tends to get stuck at the installing part, and seems to download the apps very slowly. did anyone figure out how to fix this? thanks
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
turn off backup settings ( settings --> privacy )

give it a little time to 'sync' that

backup your apps ( Titanium )

wipe all, and reflash

turn a2sd on early
[G1 Android Development] engagedtosmile:
Shocking. Android Commander doesn't find my device. It doesn't even show up in Device Manager. WTF
[G1 Android Development] rudeguy:
you need to install the driver for it first
[G1 Android Development] skrki:
Hi, you're welcome!

I looked at the traces.txt, but I can't really figure out much from there. BUT, you can give it to the guys over at IRC (see link at the bottom) and I'm sure they will tell you, if they see anything wrong. The important thing is that you've got logs and traces.

As for other solutions, first make sure you have:

(-Flashed the DangerSPL? I think you have it, right?)

-Wiped

-Flashed CM 5.0.7

-Flashed gapps

..in that exact order. Don't experiment! :)

Once you reboot, let it load up, maybe reboot once more.

Then do the same "chmod 667 /data/anr".

(BTW, /data/anr still has incorrect permissions, so every time you flash 5.0.7 you'll have to do it.)

Try to force the error. If you can, then reboot to recovery, plug your phone to a PC, and execute this through the command prompt (or terminal):

adb shell mount -o rw /data

then

adb shell rm -r /data/data/com.android.phone/*

Reboot your phone and see if anything changes. The above will clear the data of the Phone app, so upon reboot, it will be regenerated. That should give it a fresh start. Solves most of the FC issues, but....

If you still have the same problem:

Again, reboot to recovery, "adb shell mount /data", then:

adb shell rm -r /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/*

Another little refresh of the data.

Note that I have just done all of these things, and haven't broken anything.. so you should be good. Get back to us with the results!

Not sure if this will help you, I'm all out of ideas at this point. If nothing changes, be sure to stop by http://www.cyanogenmod.com/irc, they should know better.
[G1 Android Development] engagedtosmile:
The USB driver? If its that one, I have.
[G1 Android Development] foxtrickle:
I third this. My G1 run sooo much better at 384 MHz.
[G1 Android Development] skrki:
Perhaps you are having this issue:

http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=1326

Quite a few people have it, as far as I see :(

I saw it once, when I plugged my phone into a Windows 7 (that recognizes 4.2.x correctly), but never on my own computer. I run OpenSuSE though.. saw people on Ubuntu having the same issue, too.

I'm afraid it isn't the drivers...
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
uninstall and reinstall

Its also worth pointing out that you will probably need a new driver if you have recently crippled your cache partition ( by flashing Danger )

usb driver for danger available here

[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
turn off the back up settings in

settings --> private

Wipe / reflash

Restore backups , but don't restore settings! ( or do so systematically so you know which app/settings is causing the problem )

My theory is a corrupt setting is getting restored by the google backup
[G1 Android Development] attn1:
[SOLVED]

I wasn't close.

now:

SAPPHIRE PVT 32A ENG S-OFF H

HBOOT-1.33.2010

CLPD-12

RADIO-3.33.20.17

RA-sapphire-v1.7.0H

Root procedure is all over the place for the Magic. Finally got it though! This is one unreal ROM - works great.

I am loving this little phone all over again.

Battery Drain

I have just upgraded to this ROM from 4.2.15.1, and its great however I noticed my battery drains super fast. I'm talking like in 4 hours. I have SetCPU to turn down the MHZ to 245 when on standby, and run at 576 when on. I also have network settings on 2G, and only bump it up to 3G when I need to download something. I remember reading on one of the CM 5.0.7 test versions, toggling one of the bluetooth options ON actually lengthened battery life. Is this still relevant? And if so what should I do? Anyone else experiencing really short battery life?
[G1 Android Development] My1es:
Yeah everything I was asking in my previous posts I was able to find answers to by searching google. I was definitely in panic mode though. :D

Well what's done is done and luckily for me I got everything straightened out. I did try every form of rebooting the phone I could remember including the Call/menu/end sequence and I was still stuck at the G1 screen for almost 45 minutes.

That's when I removed the battery. It would still boot into recovery mode and after figuring out how to mount the SD card from CMD I verified I had all the right files and re-flashed them in recovery mode from scratch. And WALA! Everything is golden.

Now on to talking about how awesome Cyanogen 5 is. OH MAN IS IT GREAT! Very nice upgrade, very smooth, fast and some nice features. Thanks for keeping us G1 guys taken care off. Even though I'll be retiring my G1 for an EVO4G next week, it's been a great adventure seeing android evolve and watching Cyanogen Mod make it even better.

Quick question. In the call log, what happened to the feature where it condenses the numbers and puts in parenthesis the number of times you've called.? Instead of doubling up the number every time you call.

Thanks ahead.

EDIT: Another question. I'm also experiencing pretty quick battery drain, anything you guys would recommend? Anything free? Is Set CPU something I should buy? Also those of you using TasKiller on average how much ram is displayed available after clearing everything out? Sometimes I left with two apps running even after I clear them out.
[G1 Android Development] samsci:
Ok, you still are not saying much. in the 4hrs, what are you doing? Talking on the phone, txting, running apps?

Many on here have no issues with their battery life, so please be more descriptive on what you are doing exactly. If I do not do hardly anything with my phone, it easily last a whole day with no issues.

Edit: With talking on the phone normally, and texting, downloading through the day, I would say in a 4 hr time frame, I am still above 50%.
[G1 Android Development] ilaf0106:
I just had one simple question what would be the

Best cpu setting for this rom to run super smooth (not that it doesn't but

I do get occasional lags here and there) I have mt3g thank you in advance

Hythe way the best eclair rom to be bad theres another rom

That everybody wants know lol
[G1 Android Development] chrisokaly:
oh, i'm sorry. no i havent done much at all. i sync'd my contacts with facebook, downloaded setcpu and assigned the profiles, updated google maps, and sent a few texts. thats all, most of the time the phone has been idle, and thats why I felt there was something wrong. I was getting almost a day, sometimes day and a half, outta the phone before the ROM upgrade.
[G1 Android Development] bcarpe211:
Hey! So I do have the DangerSPL (even though I shouldn't need it because I am using Sapphire) and I followed all of the instructions that you gave me. Unfortunately I got the same results as before. I'll take your advice and probably talk to the guys at the IRC and see if they have anything. Once again, thank you for the help!

OK, weird bug, stop me if this has been reported elsewhere:

G1 phone, just installed all of this...

when i pick someone from my contacts and then press the hard green phone button to call them, i get "the process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. please try again"

I can call if i click on the person's number on the screen to call them. The hard button crashes.every.time.

any ideas?

thanks
[G1 Android Development] samsci:
Default that comes with it I believe is 576mhz, but some like 384mhz. It just depends on your preference. Try out differenct settings and see which one works best for you.
[G1 Android Development] engagedtosmile:
I have had Danger installed since JFs roms. This issue only started happening flashing CMs rom. I restore my previous FastTest rom and it works just fine. Not sure what it is. Works fine in recovery as well. The bug report is interesting since its not 100% of the time for him, but it is for me.

After reading the comments on the bug report, it seems to be in the commit for next build and is a known issue.

back up has been off since i did the recent major wipe out... i guess it could be an app or widget but im pretty sure i hadnt installed anything could be forgetting tho... well i wiped and reflashed and its still there so im gunna assume its an app not a setting or theme. im gunna start uninstalling untill i find it hopefully. could be anything tho since its been doing it from the start. if i do find it tho and i restore a my nan backup will the apps come back since i did the backup +ext? if so then i can just uninstall the particular app and not worry about reinstalling everything again...

edit! i think i got it! loading backup and im gunna see. stand by!

ha! got it! it was the alarm app i have been installing since cyan got rid of it a while back.... interesting how it wouldnt kick in right away tho as the app was always there.... idk must have been some typ of conflict. thanks for the help tho!

Cannot flash old ROM

I am trying to flash an old ROM after seeing Google Voice not syncing up. I was trying to flash dwang's ROM. I wiped and now it hangs with a blank screen after the startup screen. Any ideas?
[G1 Android Development] Arkain2K:
If Market give you that random "return to the previous page" problem, rebooting the phone will get things working again, a little something I picked up from all those years using Microsoft Windows :D

I completely agree with this assessment! Infact, I think the only legitimate use for SetCPU with this ROM is for underclocking (128/352/OnDemand), and Sleep/Stanby profile set to 128/128 so the CPU wouldn't suck your battery dry while the screen is off.

Retarded people set their CPU on 528/528/Performance (or even higher), and then whines about how their phone dies in 5 hours :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] samsci:
This isn't Microsoft Windows. Rebooting will not fix the issue. It will come back.

go into Settings/Applications/Manage Applications/Click on Menu to pull up Filter and and click All/ Then go to Market and clear data/cache. Do the same with Market Updater.

apps to sd?

So I just installed the latest CM5 for the Dream, following the instructions in the wiki, which was flash 2.22.23.02 radio, then danger, then CM5.0.7-ds, then Google Apps.

Everything is smooth and fast and awesome, BUT Apps-to-sd doesn't seem to work anymore. If I check the sd card it sees all the partitions and correct free space, and I can use the ringtones/music on there, but when I pull up the app drawer there is nothing but the stock apps. I even checked the Apps2SD box in the Applications settings and rebooted.

I'm sure there must be something obvious I am missing. Any ideas?

auto task killing

This ROM is fast and responsive which is great but it looks like there is some really aggressive process killing in the background. Examples:

- Google Navigation is killed when I press call end button. This does not happen on other ROMs I have tried and this is what Google actually suggests to conserve battery

- It's impossible to open up e.g Browser and Maps at the same time. Attempt to switch to the other app makes it refresh its state, e.g. website reloads

- screen goes to sleep, after a few minutes I wake the phone and website previously opened starts loading again

- Google Navigation running, I get a phonecall, after a phonecall a bug with Media Player automagically playing songs kicks in, this kills Google Navigation

Is this supposed to work this way or is it something on my end? I would much prefer to have a slower system but actually usable...

Stable version running on G1, no swap, EXT4 partition with Apps2SD.

Found a cure for low volume and background noise!!

I did some searching and a found a nice cure for the low volume, stratchy, and background noise I was experiencing with this rom.

I went here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=517745 and found a app called LOUDER VOLUME HACK. The app is on the market for about 3 bucks. Everything is now louder and clearer when im talking to some one and when im using the speaker phone.

Go to the dev's website to learn more at http://androidaudiohacks.com/home/

This apps also helps with bluetooth volume and headset volume.

By the way, u dont have to buy the app, the dev gives instructions on how to manually do it yourself but the app makes it a whole lot easier.
