[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
This is by far the BEST Sense rom I have ever run, don't allow anyone to tell you any differently*. However, i will be leaving it as I am not the biggest fan of Sense. Only flashed it because others were RAVING on how well it performed and I hadn't flashed anything other than CM5 in over a month. Great job!

*Even if the bootup scared me the first time.

If you have problems with it booting (like I did, it would hang at different parts in the logcat) remove the SIM card (as someone said) for the first boot-up.
[G1 Android Development] tehseano:
No offense to you mate, but I don't know what everyone was talking about. I spent 3 hours last night just trying to boot up and add my gmail account. If I slid out the keyboard, it took a minute, minimum to rotate. Going to the home screen and loading sense took 3-5 minutes, each time. Loading just about any page took over a minute. I never even did end up getting an account added because I was so frusrated with how long it took to do absolutely everything.

I did the proper wipes, and I have everything set up how it ought to be, I just don't possibly see where everyone is getting such amazing speed from. This was one of the slower Hero's that I'ved used.

Regardless if it works, it works. Keep up the hard work. However I am confused to know why you are posting a rom in the Dream section, having not tested it on a dream...lol
[G1 Android Development] the1gladiator:
i'm a huge fan of sense roms and i have to agree this is by far the best sense rom. I would overlook a lot with other sense roms but the phone is a MAJOR must and with missed calls via lag they didn't pay. With this rom the fact that the PHONE WORKS is by far a huge plus over other sense based roms.
[G1 Android Development] the_fish:
The first Sense UI ROM that seems usable for daily usage to me :) However, it would be great if we could have some more Sense Apps (Facebook for example, it does actually show a notification on status updates, but it does not display them)

or maybe also HTCMusic, that would be awesome :)
[G1 Android Development] Lieu10ant:
how fast is this in comparison to hero_over's 1.5 hero rom? that's the fastest hero i've used so far.
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
As I said the guy said it works and it does not and it was not tested on a G1.

So go and tell the OP what you just said.
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
No you are not confused...they are :D
[G1 Android Development] Aeltrius:
Please read my posts, at the op it had not been tested on the g1, but since it has been, by a lot of people, plus you keep posting bugs without good information or a logcat . Please be constructive or leave my thread. Some of us are trying to make progress here. Thank you
[G1 Android Development] the1gladiator:
some people my friend are negative and destructive to themselves let alone nuisances to others. my advice is that we just simply ignore this type of childish rant from them. experience teaches us that they either simply go away or go play in traffic. either way is beneficial to the rest of us :D
[G1 Android Development] castaway1:
the1gladiator let developer do his job. Some of us boot it some not but all what he need is logcat and more info about it. Is sure that they who boot it and it was slow something was wrong..(maybe long synchronize google contacts?i dont know)people that mark it as "best" sense ROM cant be stupid and know what they talking about. Aeltrius as a developer need just some time to fix some issues i trust him he can bring this rom to the top.So be patient.
[G1 Android Development] Aeltrius:
combined sites total almost 1,000 downloads in less than a full day. I'm going to guess that means I'm doing something right.

Thanks everyone so far, lets just make sure we have a detailed description of errors and a logcat when possible. Apart from that, I'll be doing what work I can over the weekend and into next week to get contacts fixed, as well as other bugs and addons, like facebook and making the browser laod up faster.
[G1 Android Development] kboater:
gonna flash this in a little while. quick question, im really tired of have to completely set up all my apps again when i flash Roms. only recently have i started using the free version of titanium backup. but i dont see an option to back up all apps or restore all apps with one click. Do i need the paid version? Or what about my backup pro? is that faster at backing and then restoring apps?

Aeltrius, sorry this is kind of off topic, but not sure where else to ask this and since im gonna flash your rom I figured this would be ok :)
[G1 Android Development] mattv888:
For some reason, my titanium backup coming from cyanogen's 5.07 failed on this =/ Any ideas why? For the rest, awesome possum rom =D
[G1 Android Development] koreancanuck:
One click batch backup is only for paid version.
[G1 Android Development] the1gladiator:
WTF are you talking about slapnutz. I haven't said anything derogatory or less than positive to Aeltrius about this ROM or the last one. I've been positive and said I LOVE THIS...

please don't get me confused with someone else :D
[G1 Android Development] tehseano:
This ROM may run great on a MT3G (Which this is not the forum for), but it runs horribly slow on a G1. I've tested this on x4 different dream's, all of which this ran horribly slow on. This is actually probably the slowest performance I've seen of Hero on a Dream. I have no need to provide a logcat cat, for the ROM worked. There weren't problems or force closes (except Touch Input/HTC IME), but besides that it was just horrible performance.

I thank you for your work and effort you put into this, but it is false advertised. It promises speed, however for an unsupported device. This is the dream section, and would think you should post dream-specific roms. If they work on the Mt3G as well, then that's just a plus.

I tried many different setups of swap sizes, including your recommended 128, full wipes, and so on. If you are a G1/Dream owner, I would not suggest flashing this. Many times was I close to throwing the phone at the wall, simply trying to login, or even type a few letters. I don't blame you Aeltrius, but this rom is certainly not made for a G1.
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
ditto. it sucks.
[G1 Android Development] rynosaur:
LOLz. No offense Aeltrius, but you're not the only guy developing with an MT3G who's run into problems with G1 users who have completely different experiences than your own. I haven't tried flashing this yet, but I know from experience with Artifexed's ROMs, DelsaLegend, etc that the extra ROM storage of a MT3G makes all the difference. I'm not saying you're not right, but you might want to soften the superlative rhetoric of your OP when it states the G1 is just as good to go as the MT3G is. Just some advice, it's a CYA statement that will avoid so many angries from us dino-G1 flashers.
[G1 Android Development] the1gladiator:
For most G1's it is good. I just loaded it on a friends G1 and it runs ok on older hardware confirmed. Not the same as my MT3G but then again the hardware is different.

If you find a problem report with logcat or please leave it be. if it works for 8/10 g1's then its safe to say its "good to go". if it doesn't work on yours, when was the last time it was dropped in the urinal trough after too much cheap ass cuervo? Just asking :D
[G1 Android Development] opasha:
not sure if anyone has tried this, but if you use the Multi Task kernel and flash it over this current rom, it might blow you away. not sure if it will work on this one but it should since it's sense 2.1. i know for a fact that the mytouch slide was slow as hell similar to the artifex legend rom i tried. however, skater4690 said the Multi Task kernel by dumfuq, located in the Multi Tasking on 507 thread, would make a huge difference in terms of speed/usuablity. let me tell you, it does 100%. if you guys don't like this rom, or even after flashing the MT kernel over this rom and no avail in terms of performance, then go download cr slide version 1.0 (has the same feel and looks way better than sense- then let it load and set it up). this way you will have your htc widgets set up and working. after that, reboot into recovery and use the update.zip for the kernel from the MT Kernel thread, and you're set.
[G1 Android Development] Aeltrius:
Thanks , opasha - I'm actually going to be running some benchmark tests with the MT Kernel on monday. We'll see how it goes, but watch my twitter for updates on it. :-)
[G1 Android Development] tehseano:
My hardware is capable. I didn't provide it because I said I had adequate hardware. All my g1's have 8gb class6 or higher SD cards. All are running on DeathSPL. All of them are in 100% perfect condition I do full wipes of data, cache, sd, system, and on none of my phones did it work well. And again I wasn't asking for help, I've never found any sense rom to run great on a G1, they're not made for it, and there is only so much optimizing you can do. Like I said, I think its just a matter of this is made for a MT3G, which is different from a G1. Others may have had some luck getting it to run ok (I don't know what there version of ok is), but for me it was 100% fail across 4 phones. 2 of which are new-er g1's, others I've had since the G1 was launched.

So I guess, kudos to those with G1's and it working great. However I still get displeased seeing MT3G stuff in the G1 section. They may be simalair but they are NOT twins. This cause of confusion brings on so many extra complaints in this section when people are making roms for x5 different phones, even though this is designated for the htc dream/g1.

Anyways keep up the great work. Like I said if it works for the MT3G, then great. I thank you for your efforts.
[G1 Android Development] Aeltrius:
There's obviously a difference between your 4 phones and the G1's that have had great results. I don't know what those differences are but I'd like to consolidate them. This belongs in G1 AND in MT3G as the rom DOES work on the majority of both phones.
[G1 Android Development] darksideofdamoon:
I'm feeling this rom, but I have just one major gripe. It seems you didn't add a Gallery to view pictures. Other than that, the rom is great. If I could view the pics I take, this would be my daily rom.
[G1 Android Development] ahaveard:
The MT3G forum has become a 32A or MT3G V1.2 forum, all of the 32B stuff is being released on the G1 forum and then just copied and re-released on the other forum. There has been too much of a separation between the old equipment and the new. The old MT3G is more similar to the G1 now than to its own model.
[G1 Android Development] Aeltrius:
Holy crap you're right! I'll work on a quick fix using the aosp album till I can take a little time to patch one of the newer HTC Albums. I can't believe I forgot the album >_< haha
[G1 Android Development] kboater:
I think it is safe to say the reason this is in the G1 section is because the original mytouch is very similiar to the G1. The Mytouch section here on XDA is for the new Mytouch, which is less similiar to the original mytouch.

MOST roms that work on original mytouch work on the G1 fine. and vice-versa (without any major porting besides spl change. I dont think the same can be said for the old vs new mytouch. that is why roms for the original mytouch are posted here instead of the mytouch section
[G1 Android Development] eum:
Wow, testet it without SIM-Card and I got a good speed improvement in comparison to the King's Legend2G1, amazing!

But I have some troubles when inserting the SIM card.

Can somebody help pls. I submitted a tail of the logcat at pastebin.com/Q11iyqaC .

The logcat say's before the exception is thrown:

I/HtcLockScreen( 357): -----refreshViewsWhetherSimOk -----: PIN_REQUIRED
I/HtcLockScreen( 357): createDeviceStatusView
E/SimUnlockScreen( 357): Exception occured
E/SimUnlockScreen( 357): java.lang.NullPointerException

:confused:

It's a HTC Dream G1 32b (german, t-mobile) with an O2 UMTS sim card.

I have no troubles starting w/o sim card
[G1 Android Development] skater4690:
just wondering so whats not in the rom besides a photo gallery and i think i read music app to?
[G1 Android Development] Aeltrius:
Right now it has an OLD music app, no album, no twitter and facebook doesn't really work (its a radio interface layer problem I'm working on)

I THINK all the major HTC apps are in here besides those, but if I'm wrong and I missed any, let me know and I'll work on porting/patching them
[G1 Android Development] skater4690:
ok does it have htc music widget? prolly not but asking... if not ill add myself and i can add the photo album myself and i usually delete twitter anyway lol i think im gonna try this out and ill try it without anything special and if its good ill leave it if not ill try the mt kernel. i think the guys saying its slow yall should try out the mt kernel it makes cr's slide rom fuskin amazing
[G1 Android Development] Aeltrius:
Woops! I mean an OLD Music app, not aosp - blah I've been up working on this for too long, and yes it has the music widget, and it works (I used it to play music in my car - through a cable that connects it to my car stereo). I'm downloading MT Kernel right now, but on a tethered connection from my basement on EVDO.... this might take awhile... I can't wait till I get my internet installed in my new place.... 5 more days. UGH!
[G1 Android Development] skater4690:
sorry for asking so many questions but does this have mount usb? ill prolly be flashing within 30 min also wondering why is it when i look through the system files i see no widget apks?
[G1 Android Development] Aeltrius:
I don't know what you're seeing, but there are widget apks in data/app_s/

Yes, it has mount usb.

PS - to anyone who cares, I might be trying to port over the HTC USB system from the new US 2.1 Eris OTA update - it gives you radio options to choose what type of connection you want when connecting to a PC, like charge-only, mount, etc. I think its pretty cool.
[G1 Android Development] skater4690:
sorry i was just looking at the files itself within the zip folder maybe something magical happens in the flashing process lol but thanks for telling me and that sounds cool what type of connection and we get to choose

EDIT: i feel stupid lol something happened when i unzipped some things didnt go where they were supposed too...:rolleyes:

one more thing will i need a ext part? laughs are quite disturbing reminds me of freddy kruegar
[G1 Android Development] Aeltrius:
Yeah, you'll need an EXT partition. It should work on 2/3 or 4, but some G1 users say it only works on 4, so I'd recommend trying that

HEY! I FIGURED OUT THE FACEBOOK PROBLEM!

Contacts Sync is trying to run as CDMA! Crap on me, I feel like an idiot for overlooking that!
[G1 Android Development] skater4690:
well thats great how long till you get a fix? can you post it so i can put it in manually? and i used firerats a2sd patch hopefully it will work
[G1 Android Development] Aeltrius:
I'm in no place to upload (or for that matter, even download) anything right now, working on a tethered evdo connection right now. Will have to wait till monday at least, but I'll be working on a fix as much as I can from here so I can be as close to ready as possible come monday.
[G1 Android Development] skater4690:
ok well how would you go about changing it if its not too hard i can go and change it myself ;)

first boot something went wrong sorry no logcat but it was prolly my fault changing apks and such did battery pull and now its booting up
[G1 Android Development] Aeltrius:
Looks like checkin is corrupt, I actually had that happen to me once. Try redownloading and flash only the Rom without any changes or mods.

Ps, someone emailed me the mt kernel. Makes some good speed changes, but messes with WiFi, calls and sms, and sometimes (though rarely) restarts rosie... will try to patch, I think its worth it ;)
[G1 Android Development] Babyface1249:
Aeltrius, awesome work, truly. Can't wait to flash after your next release.

In regards to ext partition, has anyone successfully flashed without any ext partition and using Firerat's modified a2sd?
[G1 Android Development] Aeltrius:
I wouldn't mind getting some information about this myself - most other roms (at least the ones that I've seen) use a2sd in the bin, this one works a little bit differently, and faster (thanks to changes made by eugene :-) )

I also discovered that GZIP in this rom has some problems. Will try to patch that too.

phew... we've got a lot of work ahead of us people, and to those who've given logcats thank you, I appreciate the extra work you're doing to help me fix the problems in this rom. I think together, we can make the fastest and most stab;e 2.1 sense rom to ever hit the G1 and MT3G :-)
[G1 Android Development] Babyface1249:
If no one else does, I'll give it a shot with the next update.

Off topic, but how exactly does the new method work? Is there a thread on it that I'm missing?
[G1 Android Development] vortec87:
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!! your last rom was one of my favorites!! please keep up the awesome work!
[G1 Android Development] khaosxiii:
Awesome ROM!

Been on the search for the holly grail for Sense 2.1 for some time and this one is pretty damn good!

Only thing I was trying to do was update some of the widgets to those of the Legend - specifically the Calendar Widget as the Hero version and does not have the "Agenda" style... So far I cp'd htcalendarwidget.apk and Calendar.apk to system/app (sym'd to /data/app_s/) - after a reboot the widget actually shows to available to be added on a long click screen press but when added it does not show ... wonder what I broke now :P

Q: is there any easy way to install these updated widgets? (is this even possible)

Thanks!

EDIT: Holly Dh1t! Just read through this thread and I'm seeing all kinds of G1 users talking smack about slowness and refusing to provide logs (logs could indicate memory or other issues ... wtf¿)

Wanted to add $.02 - I'm running a G1 and am seeing that the home screen and and home widgets load VERY FAST - haven't ran allot of programs yet, I am seeing that better terminal does certaintly take same time to load up and rotate but when going back to the home screen it is very fast and swipes are super quick so I think it may be a trade (not sure need to test more

I did have an issue where the ROM did seem to crawl once but a reboot resolved it - I assumed it was something that could be resolved by memory management or closing tasks ...

Good ROM!
[G1 Android Development] Scofield.:
Stuck on the HTC Screen, try to flash it two times! G1.
[G1 Android Development] Aeltrius:
Thanks for the feedback, khaosxiii. memory management in multitasking is still a bit slow, but I'm patching up the rom to make it work with the multitasking kernel for the next release. That kernel has increased the speed of the rom by at least 2x (which is AWESOME), but just broke some other stuff in the process. I'll try to have a quick update that includes the MT kernel, HtcAlbum, HTCContacts fix and some small fixes for everyone else in the next few days.

Also working on porting back the slide widgets. I've had some success so far (check the screenshots in my changelog at ASpin) but its not a big priority until after I get a stable 1.0 release with all the base stuff working.

Hey, any way you can make a youtube video of you running this on a G1 so we can finally put to the side those people saying it doesn't work on the G1?

Hey, Scofield, can you send me a logcat?
[G1 Android Development] khaosxiii:
Done:

You rock. I think I love you. :-)

How'd you like to be a beta tester for my future updates?
[G1 Android Development] Scofield.:
Sorry man, i cant, flashed another Rom already!

But everything sounds nice, looking forward to flash your next release! :)

best regards

Aeltrius

Aeltrius can you focus on get this rom to work? me scofield and some others have same issue.. stock at lockscreen...someone already send you logcat
[G1 Android Development] Aeltrius:
Working on it as we speak - I needed to see it running on the G1 with my own eyes first so I knew where to start working on some of the reported issues. Right now I'm working on the CDMA/APN issue. There's a peice of this rom that doesn't like GSM :-)

I'm going to assume I'll have a quick fix update (WILL require a wipe) sometime between monday and wednesday, but thats not a promise ;-)
[G1 Android Development] nicknowsky:
its funny cause the number 1 thing that ruins every Sense UI based ROM from 1.5-2.1 is the horrible slow, buggy, crappy Phone.apk Just in general is always sucks, and I hate soo much thats why i cant use any hero or legend rom for more than 12 hours. It just isnt responsive at all, and its even worse on the new Slide ROMS, it makes those roms just straight garbage. And i know its not the DEVS, cause the rest of the rom is generally optimized it just the phone, dialer, contacts, they just suck
[G1 Android Development] NJAZ:
100% fail = user error 4 times over ;). ROM works fine on G1. I am using ext4, 94mb swap and fat32 for the remainder on my 8gb class6 card. I reformat my card before all ROM flashes. ROM loaded right up and works as advertised.
[G1 Android Development] Aeltrius:
That was the first thing I worked on, and now we're down to near perfect pickup time :-) Check my youtube video ;-)
[G1 Android Development] skater4690:
i was using cr's slide with no problems or lag at all i was also using the mt kernel which made a drastic improvement. i still cant load this up and i the only thing im doing is using firerats a2sd patch for mt3g's shouldnt make any difference for the rom...
[G1 Android Development] stlouie65:
Great ROM. I've loaded it on my MT3G v1.2 with NO ISSUES. The only question I have is will the BT be working in next update?
[G1 Android Development] Aeltrius:
You should try it without firerat's a2sd mod. a2sd works well in this rom, even made friendly for MT3G's - but it isn't in /bin as an individual file, which I think is whats causing the poblem for you. I haven't looked directly at firerat's mod, but I'm guessing it targets /system/bin/a2sd

Just try the rom by itself before making changes ;-)

I'm working on BT, but it is not a priority at the moment. My current goals fo 1.0 are to get everything in the rom working as stable and fast as possible (like, the speed of a stock phone) with the exception of BT.

BT, backported slide widgets, and more are all what I currently consider addons to the rom. :-)
[G1 Android Development] skater4690:
i did it wont load cause i have no ext part on my sd card i hate a2sd so i always use firerats patch with no probs...
[G1 Android Development] fanbogo:
on second movie (from yt) :

1. cant see nothing

2. this room is slow

3. so delete that link

4. becouse its not proof :P

6 times flash , 6 times all wipe and same problem freez on htc screen when unlock telephone g1 dream
[G1 Android Development] MarvinTheAndroid:
I've got it working here on my G1.

A little slow to start with, but that might me because I've not given it long to settle. :D

I notice that keyboard / button lights don't work on the G1, but I'll leave things to bed in and see how it pans out.

So far so good. :D
[G1 Android Development] stlouie65:
Thanks for the update, keep up the great work
[G1 Android Development] Aeltrius:
Thanks for your well thought insight.

I would care what you thought if you'd read through my myriad of posts about giving me a LOG, or if you had checked the thread to notice that there have been NUMEROUS people, from G1 users to MT3G 1.2/Fender users and everything in between talking about how it worked, and how it worked very well.

The next person who makes makes rude posts on this thread, claiming a million bugs and refuses to give me a logcat - I'm going to report your post to the mods and ask it to be deleted.

I've done nothing throughout this thread but continuously explain WHY I ask for logcats on a BETA rom, and I really don't appreciate the disrespect.
[G1 Android Development] skater4690:
can i flash this without ext?
