Call me stupid (please don't!), but I've forgotten which version of this rom I'm using! is there a way to differentiate between v1 and v2?? in "about phone"??

TIA!

Andy
[Nexus One Android Development] tech338:
The second version includes a tweaked internal task killer. This will help battery by killing any running apps in the background, this will save battery by not possibly running the CPU a little less. The other biggest users of battery are the screen, the radios. (Here is a Google Youtube that has some really good info on battery related to Android. I borrowed this from a thread in the General Section. Kinda dry, but watch at about 6 minutes; there are some good graphs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUemfrKe65c)
[Nexus One Android Development] tech338:
Do you have the H icon? This is the one that differentiates 3G from HSPA in the notification bar and was not in the first version. Also the Microbes live wallpaper was not in the first version IIRC.
[Nexus One Android Development] andynx1:
Yes I do have the H icon, so I guess I'm on v2.

Ta!
[Nexus One Android Development] RogerPodacter:
Anyone on v2 have problems using the paid version of system panel? It doesn't work correctly for me. Whenever I go into details of a process it force closes. Or if I go to history section it force closes. But I don't get this issue on the latest cyan nightly #31.

I'm getting amazing g battery life, well amazing g from what u have been experiencing.

The phone is quick to charge and lasts all day. I constantly get email and twitter updates along with a lot of web broowsing and composing/sending of emails.

There might be a few minutes of watching video as well.
[Nexus One Android Development] lionsson:
I really love this rom and hope I can stay with it for a long while. I just wanted to request one feature and that is to control play, pause, next, and previous from the volume control. Or maybe from the notification bar and if it's not possible can someone point me to the right direction maybe a mod or something of that nature.

Surfing around, i've found some more info related to the gps problem we discussed a couple of weeks ago: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=4e60b45c18d6665c&hl=en It seems the issue is Gingerbread related NOT Rom related.

I hope they fix it soon.
[Nexus One Android Development] tech338:
First Nandroid.

Then re-download Geo's ROM. Open up the Zip file and delete the system directory, leaving only boot.img and the META-INF directory. Flash it through recovery. Make sure to check to see if your wifi works as some of the kernels change the wifi libraries.

You can also download this kernel and flash it. It is compatible with this ROM and has been pretty stable for me. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=820172

Hi Toobie,

now I did once again exactly what you kindly told me.

After the installation of terminal and insertig

a2sd reinstall

I get 2 errors:

No a2sd.swap enviroment variable found

sd card not mounted

THE SD card is mounted.

One more question:

Do you use the ROM v2 or do you use the stock rooted ROM from this threat ?

I do not know - I thought I know Android a little but this a2sd makes me cry

THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HELP - IT IOS AWESOME to have such users in here

Danke sehr

the stock version and the v2 version but in my opinion the "v2" is a bit faster.

I'm using the Wild monks 'froyo' kernel on my Geo V2 and have had no problems. It was the last set of non-CM kernels he compiled on or around 1/6. Let me see if I can link you....

http://wildmonks.whoisthedrizzle.com/kernel/2.6.35/010611/No_720p_Stock_Froyo/
[Nexus One Android Development] RogerPodacter:
is there any reason why people are purposely avoiding using the 720p video camera with GB? are there issues or downsides vs usign the stock camera?
[Nexus One Android Development] Txtraveler:
Wow, and I thought my recent 8 day stretch was a long time! Still, I agree; this is a VERY stable ROM.

Edit: I just realized that this makes it look like the ROM being stable for 8 days was unusual. It's not; I travel on business regularly and have to turn my phone off during flights. It's rare that I get to test it for very long runs. In the past I've had problems with other phones (T-mobile Wing running Windows Mobile 6, for example) that destabilized after 3-5 days on the odd occasion I've been able to leave them on that long. Using Geo's ROMs I have reset my phone for instability maybe twice in 8 months!
[Nexus One Android Development] tech338:
I think this ROM is based on the the official Google release and not AOSP or CM. It is designed to run on the stock kernel and IIRC 720p recording is not built into the ROM. So from what I gather, 720p kernels will not work with this ROM (or at least the camera won't work). I think this is one reason that the many CM kernels won't work.

...of course I haven't tried any of the 720p or CM kernels, so maybe I'm wrong.
[Nexus One Android Development] RogerPodacter:
Yeah I would think this is true because I regularly go weeks between rebootp and it gets too long and boring to test beyond a month or so. So my best result I actively recorded was 530 hours. But it will go so much longer that its pointless to track it:-)
[Nexus One Android Development] ExtraDas:
I've tried that set last week and it ended up killing my Wifi (wifi off when flashing, etc).

I'll give it another shot as I've just had to reflash everything due to a sd card dying on me (a2sd so that took down everything with it).

On another note: my battery life has been beyond great prior to flashing last night. However, right now it's quite bad. It lost 25%+ just sitting on my night stand for 5 hours with "Android OS" responsible for 45% battery use. Sleep policy is NOT set to Screen off.

l'll have to keep an eye on it the next few days but there is something iffy going on.
[Nexus One Android Development] shpongled:
Oh what a scare, I didn't remember I had to reflash a2sd after updating from v1 to v2 and got stuck in a boot loop. All good now, thanks again for greeeeat ROM!
[Nexus One Android Development] Toobie:
Yip..

I tried to update busybox.. and got stuck at the Bootloader..

had to reflash the v2 and the a2sd image.

Than it reboots like nothing happens before, everything fine ;)
[Nexus One Android Development] 69reichertm:
Hey Toobie

Thank you for all the Hekp and Tips:

Here my conclusion to may a2sd Problems - perhaps I can help some one.

The problem was that I did update busybox after flashing the stock or the v2 rom before using the terminal.

LET THE VERSION ALLREADY INSTALLED OF BUSYBOX AS IT IS and all goes right.

If you update busybox the a2sd is not working after reboot and all apps are gone.

I noticed a small problem..

Iam using this rom now for a cuple of weeks.

Till some days I've got problems with my gps.

Some problems like Waze or also google maps doesn't get a signal.

So it is not possible to navigate... it always los the gps signal.

Foursquare for example works, because you just need the signal for a couple of seconds.. so you can check in.

I will now wipe my phone and will start from the beginning.

Hopefully, it's not my phone which is broken ;O

Anyone have a problem in this ROM where screens want to stop appearing correctly? I've had an issue where the lockscreen is blank, but you can still slide where you normally do to unlock it.

Then I've had keyboard issues where the popups just want to show a blank box (like the smilies). Or where the keyboard doesn't want to open at all and eventually gives me FC's.

I've had these issues on dsixda's OTA-based ROM too. I've had the keyboard issue on CM7, but only once so far and that's when the battery was really low.

Not that all but sometime, also some windows don't want to show up correctly.

I've had the exact same problems. really annoying. probably happens once a week. if you open an app you go to a black screen, any settings or menus also go to a black screen, holding down the home button just dims the screen instead of showing recent apps. and several other problems. reboot fixes it. other than that, the rom is and always has been amazing.

Launcher2.apk with 7 Screens for GeoBread

So I've been missing the 7 screen stock launcher (stolen from the G2) since we've had Gingerbread. Last week there was a leak of a G2 Gingerbread build that included a new 7 screen launcher. I've ripped the Launcher2.apk from that and it works well on my Geo Gingerbread 2.3.3. Hope this helps some people.

Credit to xboarder56, as I took it from his leak rebuild in the G2 section.

Here are the instructions I copied and pasted from last time...

If you have root explorer, copy Launcher2.apk to your SD card. Open root explorer and navigate to /system/app/ and rename Launcher2.apk to Launcher.bak. Then copy Launcher2.apk from the SD card to /system/app/. Lastly, change the permissions of Launcher2.apk to match Launcher2.apk (long press launcher2.apk and check : user read, user write, group read, other read). Reboot. If any problems, just rename Launcher2.bak to Launcher2.apk. Probably best to do a Nandroid first, just in case.

You can also do this by adb if you can use adb. In this case, copy the new Launcher2.apk to the tools folder in the android-sdk-windows folder (assuming you use windows).

adb remount
adb pull /system/app/Launcher2.apk Launcher2.bak
adb push Launcher2.apk /system/app
adb reboot

Again, best to Nandroid just in case. Not sure how the phone would react if something is wrong with the Launcher.

Geo, Can you include this if/when you do a new 2.3.4 build (I hope you will!)
[Nexus One Android Development] Snickolaz:

I also tried this, but no luck, as the wifi gives error all the time and canoot be turned on.

[Nexus One Android Development] mo2002:
biggest reason i came to this rom
[Nexus One Android Development] tech338:
You are not going to be able to flash the update over a custom ROM. If you want it you will have to get back to 100% stock GRI40 and/or flash a complete ROM that is based off the 2.3.4 OTA.
[Nexus One Android Development] Nikos_s3:
Actually my current rom is Geo's stock GRI40 rooted, with busybox...and yes indeed, the only chance I have is waiting patiently for his next 2.3.4 pre-rooted.

And since my bootloader is still locked, going back to 100% stock is no good for me. I need either a prerooted one or an incremental update.zip, so as to flash superuser right afterwards and before reboot my phone...otherwise, no root, no party..:)

Either

or

2) revert to stock image by flashing an official Google ROM or use the PASSIMG method. Update to 2.3.2 via OTA. Re-root with gingerbreak. Load custom recovery. flash the official 2.3.4 AND BEFORE YOU REBOOT, flash SU (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13424911&postcount=19).

[Nexus One Android Development] tech338:
Can you try this? Please Nandroid first...

Use a file manager such as root explorer to navigate to /etc/security.

rename otacerts.zip to otacerts.old (you can rename it back to .zip if needed).

I have used this method in the past when modded build.props have ceased to work.

I would try it myself, but I have yet to receive the OTA notification.
[Nexus One Android Development] shpongled:
Has it ceased? Could have sworn I modded the build prop while waiting for Geo 2.3.3.

Any one tried to update to the other "deodexed rooted stock with a2sd" available here in another thread?

Damn you HTC for the ridiculously low storage space.. only real motivation for me to mess with this.
[Nexus One Android Development] tech338:
Not sure if the modded build.prop has ceased to work, but I had problems when I got 2 OTAs behind. Changing it worked until a 2nd OTA started rolling out, then I was getting a notification to upgrade.

Yeah that happened to me too, skipped the last froyo and then couldn't get rid of the gingerbread OTA notification (and then updated to 2.3.3). But... it's working so far for the 2.3.4 update (renamed the otacerts file). Thank god because I'm holding out for Geo. I trust his roms to just work, and that's what I need on a daily basis.

If your using GEO's stock 2.3.3 you do not need to wipe data.

Flash Stock GRI40 2.3.3, (don't reboot) then flash update.zip (dont reboot) then flash su.zip

After you reboot, you will have 2.3.4 and Root + maintain custom recovery. You'll just have to download latest busybox.

Hey tech338 I used your directions in this tread sometime ago to shut up the notifications. I am not sure what to put in the build prop for this update in terms of version keys.... could you tell me the info and then how one gets it(to put in the build.prop file) so I can use your directions to shut up the notifications.

much appreciated
[Nexus One Android Development] tech338:
build.prop instructions remixed.

To avoid getting the annoying system update message you can do the following...

(requires root)

Use your favorite file editor (I use root explorer) to navigate to /system.

Ensure you have read/write access.

Open up build.prop in a text editor.

Change line 30 where it says "ro.build.description=<whatever it currently says>"

Change it to "ro.build.description=passion-user 2.3.4 GRJ22 121341 release-keys"

Change line 31 where it says "ro.build.fingerprint=<whatever it currently says>"

Change it to "ro.build.fingerprint=google/passion/passion:2.3.4/GRJ22/121341:user/release-keys"

Save.

Reboot.

I believe that part should stop you from getting the update. If you have already gotten it, you may have to navigate to /cache and delete the OTA zip file. I had to go one step more and allow the OTA to try to install and fail.

You could also use ADB to pull the file from the phone, edit it on your workstation, and then push it back and do deletions as well.

These values are always found in the build.prof of the latest OTA (perhaps not the ota file itself, but any nexus that has taken the OTA).

As always, I recommend a Nandroid before you do this.
