Camera without zoom

I have the 6.0 but the camera only shows 3 "icon" options: color effect, location and white balance. however it seems Froyo has 5 options for the camera, the 3 above and zoom and focus (like in the picture). Is this a bug or did i install something wrong? Couldn't find any settings for the camera either

Thanks a lot

Market app missing from the last update ''update-cm-6.0.0-DS-RC3-signed'' even i installed google app ''gapps-mdpi-20100930-signed'' !!?

any idea pleas,
[G1 Android Development] id242:
Chances are that your phone has run out of system space while trying to install the gapps-full [17MB] package. try just installing gapps-tiny [7MB] and then get the removed apps from Market

When gapps-full [17MB] is installing, it installs the files from the archive in alphabetical order... since Vending.apk (this is your Market app) along with VoiceSearch.apk. YouTube.apk are at the end of this alphabetical order, chances are that you wont have those either.

The main difference between TINY and FULL are about 10mb of files that can be downloaded through Market. When downloaded through market, the programs are installed to your much larger DATA partition rather than your SYSTEM partition - which is smaller.

TINY has the following applications removed from it:

CarHomeGoogle

CarHomeLauncher

Facebook

GoogleVoice

Maps

PassionQuickOffice

Twitter

As far as what GAPPS version to use...

gapps-MDPI is for phones with Medium density screens (160)

HVGA (320x480), 3.0"-3.5" diagonal

32A/32B - Dream/Magic - G1/MyTouch3G...etc, use MDPI

gapps-HDPI is for phones with High density screens (240)

WVGA (480x800), 3.3"-4.0" diagonal

FWVGA (480x854), 3.5"-4.0" diagonal

The most recent gapps can be downloaded from this link (I suggest to bookmark it)

Making sure apps2sd is working.

Hey, no prob at all. Just glad I can help.

As to your question, you don't really "disable" Froyo2SD, you just trick it into working with the new script (props to Firerat for the script, again). So, the short answer is "Yes." But, I don't really do short; I do thorough. :D So, first thing's first...

SECTION 1:

1. Under Settings>CyanogenMod settings>Application settings,

uncheck

"Allow application moving."

2. On the same setting screen, click on "Install location" and make sure it is set to "Internal."

3. If you already did that (steps #1-2) before you ran Firerat's script, then you get a gold star and a pass to "Section 2."

SECTION 2:

1. Go to Settings>Applications>Manage applications. Click on "On SD card" in the far upper right corner of the screen. If there are no apps listed in that menu, move on to the next step. If there are apps listed, move on to "Section 2" of this post. NOTE: Do

not

worry about all the apps listed in "Downloaded." Firerat's script just tricks the phone into seeing the EXT partition as a different part of the phone's internal memory.

2. Go to Settings>SD card & phone storage. Check to see that your "Internal phone storage" isn't low. If it is not low, Firerat's apps2sd was installed correctly (kudos to you), you're golden and you can stop here. However, if it is low, on to "Section 3" you go.

SECTION 3:

1. Open up "Terminal Emulator" and type:

su

apkmanager.sh

2. Per the prompts, move all of your apps to the EXT partition, just like when you first ran the script (I'd also suggest moving the data/data to EXT, as well; it can get decently large).

3. The script will continue to loop back to the same questions. So, just type quit when you start seeing a repeat question.

4. Reboot.

5. Once settled back in to the OS (give it a minute or so to settle in), go to Settings>Applications>Manage applications. Click on the "On SD card" box/icon in the far upper right corner of the screen. If there are no apps listed in that menu, then you are golden and can move on to step #7 of this section.

6. If there are apps listed in "On SD card," tap on them and choose "Move to phone." Firerat's script will automatically move the apps from internal right onto the EXT partition. The phone still thinks they are on internal, but we know they aren't (via "Section 1"). Moo ha ha.

7. Now, either pop open "Terminal Emulator" or reboot into recovery and run a fix_permissions.

8. Repeat "Section 1" again for peace of mind and then throw in one more reboot. Bam! :D
[G1 Android Development] my_former_self:
I second this post. While Estrong's can read/write to the /system, the guide's method is, in my opinion, a cleaner way as it removes all traces (i.e. associated data, etc.). Then again, I'm a long time Linux lover and think the Terminal should be the 8th wonder of the world. :D

P.S. - @Dukenukemx, be careful uninstalling ADWLauncher; it is the default integrated system launcher. You may end up with an unusable OS.

[G1 Android Development] raven_raven:
I think that's because G1 doesn't support either different focus modes and digital zoom. But hey, newest nightly should have tap to focus, so maybe this will replace at least one of missing functions you are looking for ;).
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
It seems that it does, since I have those features on my G1 using Camera ZOOM FX.
[G1 Android Development] raven_raven:
Hm, maybe they're using their own code. My point is that Froyo camera wasn't meant to be run on G1, therefore it may not fully support Dream camera hardware.
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
That's a good point, and I'm sure you're right. I like the Froyo camera, but ZOOM FX takes consistently better pictures.

[G1 Android Development] my_former_self:
See my sig. Specifically the "CM6 Speed Tutorial."
[G1 Android Development] my_former_self:
If it's memory (i.e. RAM), check my "CM6 Speed Tutorial" for better settings.

If it's actual storage space (or even if it's not), you need to install the real apps2sd and not use froyo2sd (it's cr*p). First, get yourself a 512MB EXT partition via whatever method you want. Then, install Firerat's app2sd script from my sig and follow his instructions. There's another link in my sig to make sure you got it working. That will free up a lot of internal storage, especially if you use the script to move /data/data to the EXT partition, as well.
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
That sucks. I didn't know that, thanks.
[G1 Android Development] VAMCAVALO:
hey thank you very much. i have some problems on my way

1. i do not understand what you want to say at 22# of the cm speed test

what is spare parts

2. i do not understand either how i get swap enable. i flashed the swapscript 2.1.1 then i try the command swapfile64 or 40 i dont remember and it didn't work

what i supposed to do?

3. i tried to install a 39mb game (need for speed shift) by adb install and it gives the error INSTALL_FAILED_INSUFFICIENT_STORAGE ... and using the script app2sd it shows that i have more than 500mb free at ext partition

thank you very very much and sorry about my poor english!
[G1 Android Development] jpzzle:
Swap is always and always slow my friend, I don't even recommend it, even if at first it seems to help, but just a few minutes/hours/days/weeks later it will absolutely and eventually make you hate your phone.. IT"S SWAPPING, so it makes sense.
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
Beg to differ. CompCache behaves like this - starting off fine, but degrading over time (within hours). Real swap otoh, makes my G1 consistently more responsive even after a week of uptime.

OK, if you manually "single task" you shouldn't need swap, but as soon as you have > 1 app running simultaneously, I'm afraid you need some swap on a memory starved G1
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
Compcache is swap in memory! If swap is helping you, compcache should do the same, on a level bit lower of available memory. You can choose: fast swapping with lower memory available, i.e. compcache, or slow swapping, but more memory ;)
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
Wrong. Compcache is

A) slower (as it as the name suggests compresses and decompresses the data) unless you have a really slow SD card and

B) uses the RAM it's trying to preserve.

The gain is the difference between size of uncompressed data vs compressed data. The more you compress, the more efficient, but the more you compress, the more CPU (=time) the compress/decompress process takes.

Why this deteriorates over time is beyond me, but it does. I tried compcache when it was introduced, but gave up on it after a week or so, as my phone constantly became unbearably sluggish (much worse than with no swap of any kind) after a few hours of use, and had to be rebooted to come back to life.

I don't doubt compcache is great with memory to spare and a fast CPU, but unfortunately the devices that really need swap has neither.
[G1 Android Development] vermaekansh:
I totally agree its useless....i am not using swap and now my phone is working like a charm...really nice very rarely get any FC's everything seems to be nice...
[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
Let's agree to disagree :)

Some find swap useless. Some find compcache to be tha ****. Some find real swap to be the best solution. Thanks to Cyanogen we have the alternatives.
[G1 Android Development] vermaekansh:
I just want him to add APP2sd with CM6.1 RC at and also the latest kernal..

[G1 Android Development] ZilverZurfarn:
Yes, it'd be nice to have that "built in", but with FireRat's script A2SD works just as nice as it did with CM 5.X
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
After reading the above discussion, I'm now testing my phone with CompCache off since the performance would degrade so significantly (requiring a reboot every 24 hours at the very least). I hesitated doing that though, because I can't get GTalk to stay in memory. :(
[G1 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
This (or any other 2.2 Rom for that matter) won't keep apps in memory at all when you disable Swap (or Compcache).

Without any of these two necessary evils it's a single-task affair. Leave an app? It will be closed. Return to the app? It will be reloaded. Utterly annoying.

So a (small) Swap file really is needed for people who want to do multiple things at the same time.

Not being able to answer a Google Talk request without the messaging app shutting down is not my cup of tea.

This is not exactly the answer you were looking for, but have you tried this yet...

Wireless Tether @ http://www.appbrain.com/app/android.tether

From what I've read, the hardware driver that our phones are using does not have AP mode support, which is required for hotspot. The current driver currently only supports tethering over an ad-hoc network.

BTW, what CyanogenMod screen shots are you referring to?
[G1 Android Development] id242:
Oooo - what is this? :)
[G1 Android Development] tnpapadakos:

btw, it works on my froyo'd mt3g, even though they dont list it as such
[G1 Android Development] TeeJay3800:
Yeah, that seems to be how it is. :( I tried turning CC off, and NOTHING would stay in memory. I would use swap, but without a Class 6 SD, it wouldn't work very well. So it looks like it's either use swap, or use CC and get used to daily or twice daily reboots.
[G1 Android Development] firefly6240:
I'm using swap on a class 2 card (the stock one that comes with the phone) it works pretty well. compcache seems slightly faster overall, but swap multitasks better in my experience. although if you decide to upgrade sd cards, amazon has class 10 cards for not too much, although the larger ones get pretty pricey.

I have a problem with my wife's mytouch..

I have wiped completely and installed fresh newest version of CM6. Everything is super fast for a few weeks then it drags to a halt and is unusable. nothing responds very well and it lags really bad.

I rewiped and installed same version and same thing! week or 2 fast then drags to a halt.

I am assuming that it has something to do with cache? Do I need to clean out the cache and whats the best way of doing that?

[G1 Android Development] firefly6240:
on paper you should see a HUGE difference.

a class 2 is way slower than a class 10.

realistically however you should ask someone that has one.

I think most people around here have a class 6 at most, only a few seem to have a class 10.

it may not be worth it to upgrade.

most people I talk to say they get a pretty nice boost with a class 6 though.

So how much ram are you guys seeing once everything is installed and running. I am using some memory status program and it is telling actuall ram is between 6 and 11mb, in total internal ram I have 48mb (again after Firerat's 1.4.0 patch). Guess there is not much left in these G1 phones at this point. I worry about it not wanting to answer the phone, on CM5 if I didn't have 24mb of actual ram free it would not ring. Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining at all, just don't know if maybe I am missing something. So far it seems stable.

[G1 Android Development] fratermus:
Agreed. My anecdotal experience:

G1 with swap: works fine, no degradation with uptime. Some CPU bottlenecking noticeable at times, particularly when loading big apps. Can surf net over wifi or work on email and and play podcasts over bluetooth at the same time. Tasker runs in the background happily automating my android universe.

G1 without swap: unusable, practically speaking (and I am a fellow comfortable with old, slow hardware). Cannot multitask any of my frequently used apps. 10-second loadtimes to redraw home screen.
