Using the spare parts app, disable compatibility mode. This will allow all apps to be full screen. Spare parts is not included in the new patch, but is in linckraker's update.zip for it.

BTW, the gentouch is running much better with the new patch! The update didn't wipe data either. But, until linckraker finishes his new boot.img, /cache will need to be mounted to /data/cache manually at each reboot. I've noticed:

Audio is fixed

Lockscreen is fixed

Better screen calibration

Overall snappier

Notification bar volume controls really comes in handy

new wifi issues

ok. changed to WPA wifi

Everytime I try to connect with gentouch it kills my router. Is this possible or just repetitive coincidence? has happened the lsat 8 times I've tried to connect. It kills my router and I need to reboot it.

thanks instructions above worked perfectly.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cutterjohn:
Is it an n capable router? If so I have a b/g/n capable router and when I had it set to n with b/g support any time a b/g device would connect it would die(eventually -- I suspect that it couldn't truly do b/g AND n connections at the same time), so I just reset it b/g mode ONLY. ("security" is set to WEP)

I have too many devices that I use which can ONLY handle 802.11b & WEP. My broadband connection can't even saturate a g connection(nb) so I rarely miss having n capability.

The boot image in linckraker's update zip file should fix the cache problem, with no need for manual mounting at each boot.

@linckraker. Can the boot image from the updated zip be extracted and fastbooted to the device?

fastboot flash boot boot-test1.img

I already ran the previous update, which I assume only excluded the boot image. Just want to be sure there's nothing else new in the update.

Maybe you held down the "home" button instead of the "back" button? You have to use the "back" button for fastboot, and "home" for clockwork.

I am now on WPA (converted last night from WEP thinking that would do the trick to get me on at home). My entire network works flawlessly (with and without being bridged wirelessly, I've tried with and without). Running G only (not an N capable router - wrt54g). BUT as soon as

I turn on

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] wa3yri:
be warned the new v2. Update posted on Augen's site today wiped my CWR

I have a question. I have installed all augen and xda updates but not the market Update (Was frustrated with not being succesful pulling an android id from the SDK and just used dropbox and my nexus one to install apks ). Now I want to try again. Will it mess up any of the updates I've already installed?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] geller:
For someone that hasn't done any modding to this point, are the two updates the only things that need to be done to have it updated, rooted, and with a working market?

Also, the recently (re?)posted update on Augen's site is slightly different than the one posted here (even ignoring the extra file in the .zip). Would using that cause problems for the Google apps patch?

And thanks for the help in advance, and also thanks to linckraker for all his work.

ETA: Are these updates going to wipe current apps or settings I should backup first?

ETA2: Sorry I don't think I read it right the first time, and the update in this thread seems like it's supposed to be different from the one on Augen's site as it adds Clockwork or something.

I had not done the market fix prior to pirates update.

All I did was get my AndroidID with the emulator and updated it on my Gentouch (steps in the wiki). Market worked! downloaded all kinds of apps to make sure.

Never messed with cache or anything else. Did it all sitting at McDonalds because my freakin wifi does not like my Gentouch.

the gentouch is a weight gain program for me, since I am always at McDonalds to get on the internet.

Bit the bullet and finally installed Augen's (well by way of the one LincKraker posted, not the one on their web site) and the pirate update and did the market fix.

It works wonderfully. Thanks SO much for everyone's help and work done on this. I thought this was cool out of the box, and now it's made so much better.

Rotation and running stuff in a small window are the only little problems I see now and the first has a work-around, the other isn't a big deal really. (Granted, even without the calibration update, I had no trouble at all using a finger or stylus to type or navigate... Maybe I'm lucky... Or just lucky I've never used a better touch-screen so don't know the difference...)

Man this thing really is awesome now. Thanks again and special thanks to LincKraker. Off to download and screw around with stuff...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] geller:
If the second step failed, there's probably more than that missing. Download it again. I just used it and it worked just fine, so the problem isn't the file itself. Perhaps your download didn't finish properly.

The Market needs more work than just the update. You need to install the Android emulator, link the market in that to your Google account, then use the adb tool to pull the AndroidID and insert it into your modded Gentouch.

See here: http://augendev.wikispaces.com/Market+Fix

Do steps 19-28.

Stuck flashing system?

So, I have the v2 patch, and extracted the os dir to c:\. I open a command prompt and cd to c:\os and type update. recovery and boot flash fine, but it hangs on 'fastboot flash system'. I see sending 'system' (108565 KB)... then it just hangs.

Any thoughts?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] goodintentions:
First of all, you don't need to go to command prompt. Just double click on update.bat.

One thought I have is that your battery ran out. Did you have it plugged in? Both power and usb.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] wa3yri:
Thanks for there idea but I have full internet accesses. It works fine if I connect to gmail via the webb interface. It is weird, it is like the gmail apk doesn't like the auth for sending but is ok with downloading messages. Anyone else have any ideas?

Has anyone found any overwhelming reason to switch to the v2 patch if you've already done the 8/19 version + linckraker's update?

or maybe I should just:

@linckraker

when you were nosing around the v2 patch .img files did you notice any content diffs? e.g. sizes/checksums/files?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] eismanxda:
Yes both power and usb. I have even tried deleting the fastboot.exe and using the one in my sdk. I am familure with adb and android. I have rooted my moto droid and a few others of my friends, like the samsung captivate.

I wound up copying files to the sdcard and using 'adb shell flash_image system /sdcard/system'. It still seems to hang.

Can someone release a nandroid update.zip with the current patches and linkracker's zip flashed? That would simplify the process greatly.

- Copy update.zip to SD

- Fastboot CW

- Reboot Recovery

-Apply nandroid backup

Done

The new lock screen is annoying.

Also, it would be nice to get a keyboard option that actually has English words in the dictionary instead of... whatever is on this one. It says English in the options but it sure as heck doesn't offer English words in the predictive text. Quite annoying.

It would also be nice to get the newer browser if that's not too much to ask. I hated this version of the Android Browser on my Droid and the newer one was a tremendous upgrade over the previous (current on the Augen) one.

Just a heads up too, the pdf that normally tells you how do flash the update isn't in this version. It was in the link to the v2 update that you installed though... just missing from this one. I was able to do it because I still remembered how from doing v2 the other day but others may not. Thanks!

Using the custom Pirate version with Launcher Pro (5 rows), AVC (disabled spareparts compatibility mode), "RotateD" (manual screen rotation app), No Lock, and Swype (for the Evo).
