Hey shadow

I would deffinately be interested in checking out the rest of your customizations. Sounds pretty sweet
[G1 Android Development] Hillaire:
Red-faced

I started to reply saying that I had typed it exactly as you wrote it, and went to check the new copies from yo9gnc to report back on those results, but I'm embarrassed to say that I added an extra character to the string, writing "mid5sum" and getting permission denied again. I must have done the same yesterday, and I apologize for running you guys in circles for nothing. Still no clue why knight's copies wouldn't work, though, unless the problem's on my end in the download.

It's working perfectly now, though. Considering it's a Froyo rom, it's by far the best rom I've run. Plenty fast, nothing buggy so far, and very smooth. Seems pretty hard on the battery, but all the Froyo roms I've tried so far have been. In any case, thanks knight for the great rom, and again to everyone for the help. Looking forward to 2.0...
[G1 Android Development] flip3547:
I would definetly be interested in those adjustments, Thanks! I'll look forward to trying them out.

Is there another link for this cuz everytime I try to flash this it says (BAD) and aborts installation. I have tried to download it several different times.

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] jasnmb:
this has the most up-to-date flash-able ADW files:

http://code.google.com/p/adw-launcher-android/downloads/list
[G1 Android Development] kingjehu:
I uploaded another one for you. It works best if you rename it Launcher.zip so that it actually replaces the default one, so I did that.

I will edit my initial post with this link. I just tried it myself and it worked, ADWLauncher Settings also shows up in the settings app now, right below CyanogenMod Settings.

[G1 Android Development] ForTehWolf:
Although the ROMs incredibly fast, swiping between homescreens is a little sluggish and choppy
[G1 Android Development] sl1k1:
What launcher are you using? ADW is smooth for me
[G1 Android Development] kingjehu:
Agreed. The stock froyo launcher has been called the fastest though, so maybe your settings make it less smooth?
[G1 Android Development] :
...I have ben driving myself nuts trying to figure out why I can't see ADW settings, and it's because there isn't ADW in this rom.

Wow.

I...wow.

*goes to the corner*
[G1 Android Development] 313dash:
For me the best launcher is LauncherPro. I haven't gotten any lag and I also removed the default launcher.
[G1 Android Development] burn317:
I've never had problems with adw, I think what I like most about it is I can restore everything exactly where it was so its not like relearning how to ride a bike each time I flash a ROM
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
Let me know when you get that done and if you want I will post it in the OP. Just let me know.
[G1 Android Development] sl1k1:
I agree LauncherPro runs super smooth but im soo used to the galaxy s style launcher in ADW lol..
[G1 Android Development] Ohsaka:
Progress on the 2.0 version continues!

Notice anything strange about this picture? :)
[G1 Android Development] Chapsticky:
Round one....

I think Launcher Pro works great on the G1, Mytouch 3g works better with both, This rom is kicking ass, the only gripe I have is it closes some of my games for no reason.
[G1 Android Development] Jbazt_katuforzs:
Best launcher for me too
[G1 Android Development] Jbazt_katuforzs:
Oh!!! There's ahmm.... an added switch of the.... hahahaha!!! Yes!!! Its coming out soon.
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
Yeah 2.0 is going to Rock the World. I am thinking they might see it soon right? lol

How is the 3G hack working for people?
[G1 Android Development] Lateralos:
Well I haven't done any Bench tests but market downloads do seem allot snappier, cheers :D, also can't wait for 2.0! Posts from your twitter's gotten me all excited ;)
[G1 Android Development] jasnmb:
launchers

my 2 cents on launchers is that the stock Froyo launcher has less restarts when returning to the home screen from an App than Launcher Pro or ADW. But Launcher Pro is much smoother when scrolling between home screens.

I wish someone would take the Froyo launcher and hack in nothing else but the super smooth scrolling of LP.
[G1 Android Development] burn317:
They seem quick, once they begin. sometimes I'll start a dl and have to cancel it and restart it again two or three times before it begins.
[G1 Android Development] burn317:
Have you tried adw with lock home in memory activated? Only time I get restarts is when I change something like icon names on or off.
[G1 Android Development] jasnmb:
I do have lock home in memory activated. It's been a while since I've tried adw, but it seemed to restart about the same as LP.

I don't have many restarts, but usually I get restarts when I exit out of a longer than normal web browsing session. It just seems like LP/ADW would do it more often than the stock launcher.
[G1 Android Development] Ohsaka:
There has always been a big debate on which Launcher is best and also "swap vs compcache".

That's why we made ROM plain. You get to set it like you want it. I think the difference in peoples results come from different usage patterns, widgets, background apps, etc.

The fun part is testing it all out and finding out what works best for you. With this app, switching configurations just got a whole lot easier!
[G1 Android Development] feckweed405:
Speed, etc.

I wiped and installed 1.9.2. I was getting a lot of those “wait” dialog boxes, particularly with Gmail, with Swiftype keyboard, and with ChompSMS (which is slow on these machine to begin with). I increased swap to 64MB (30 swappiness) and that helped a little. I tried DumFuqs 633 MHz kernel but it kept restarting. I then tried the 614 MHz kernel and it things are much faster for the past 1.5 days. I do use Advanced Task Manger 1 few times a day to end excess apps but usually my memory is in the 19-24 MB range on my MyTouch 32B. Hope this helps some folks with slow systems.
[G1 Android Development] jasnmb:
This is why this ROM is pure win.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
You can restore LP settings too
[G1 Android Development] Gisiej:
Realy excited for 2.0 =) cant wait to flash it and try it out!
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
That sounds like a lot of work just to get a rom running smooth you have to OC to 614 Mhz? Use pershoots kernels they seem to work much better, and you don't have to kill your battery with OC'ing!
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
Come on Sparks, not everybody has to do all that work to get the Rom to run Smoothly :cool:, That is one case, most people get the rom running, including myself, without having to do anything special to the Rom. As multiple people have said this Rom is smooth and fast. and 2.0 is coming out (:eek:most likely tomorrow:eek:) and its going to blow even this version away.
[G1 Android Development] paoloc67:
will be a nowipe version 2.0? I just finished to configure 1.9.2
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
I am sorry about this :( but 2.0 will not be a no wipe update we have changed so much stuff in 2.0 I dont know what a no wipe would do maybe Global Thermal Nuclear War or something....but like always you can try and see what happens, but remember if you try the nowipe dont expect to get help, until you do a wipe and if the problem persists.

2.0 will be released tomorrow after I get home, so around 8 - 10 am my time (AZ, USA) as long as all the positive feedback keeps coming in from testers. Get ready for the "Plain Ride"
[G1 Android Development] nakeman:
i am going to try it tonight since shadowch31's relaible comments.

hopefully biffmod would go on develope and don't let me down as what my current rom did :o
[G1 Android Development] nakeman:
Oops... just decided to flash this rom and here comes the big news... so i should wait for 2.0's landing.. :p
[G1 Android Development] feckweed405:
Truth be told this IS a fantastic ROM and those dialog boxes weren’t all that bad. I just like tweaking to cater to my OCD. Cant imagine if I ever tried meth....:eek:
[G1 Android Development] thelamacmdr:
Not sure if it's specific to this rom but I've had Google Apps (eg. Maps, Navigation, Google Search, Google Voice Search etc.) back out on me back to the previous Activity. This occurs with our without JIT and everything else is off, I also use SetCPU at 595 Mhz and Autokiller with Moderate settings
[G1 Android Development] :
Have you tried dropping it lower to say 556mhz and autokiller off?

If yes then i'd advise a full wipe and reflash because I have zero issues with Gapps, once clean installed test again. If it works then restore/setup your system and see if the problem comes back.
[G1 Android Development] snkrfrkr127:
1 of the best froyo roms ive used!!
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
Thank you and your welcome. working on 2.0 right now. :D

Hack the Planet.
[G1 Android Development] nickislauw:
oo when is it done????
[G1 Android Development] raven_raven:
I think it'll be done when it'll be done :). Just wait, don't stress the dev.
[G1 Android Development] nickislauw:
I dony stress him:) i just can't wait!!! :D:D
[G1 Android Development] Lateralos:
Ahh, the wait is killing me (on this boring ol' sunday), devs probably sleeping as I think its like 5AM in the West :D

Switched to the slow SuperE so when i try 2.0 the speed will blow my nuts off. :cool:
[G1 Android Development] paoloc67:
message on twitter :Royalknight6190

Working with others to get BiffMod 2.0 - Off the Ground and in the arms of yall.

Still polishing 2.0 sorry for the delay it will be out very soon Like I said before I would rather release a Beast of a Rom then a care bear
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
Yup that is what I said and that is what is going on, we are getting closer, we just also asked for the assistance of Shadow31 to help us with his Renice script, another big issue I see on the G1's when you have a rom is call lag, well I for one hate call lag and yeah we dont want any call lag so we are trying to get it where there is no call lag. Trust me the final product will make you fall in Love with your G1 all over again.
[G1 Android Development] Hillaire:
Hey, knight, thanks for taking the time to get it right - we really do appreciate your efforts.
[G1 Android Development] :
Well folks as Knight has said he has asked me to help trying to sort out the renice so it doesn't need manually doing each reboot and as part of that I have been given access to v2.0 :D

There are a few little issues being ironed out but you know what its like, you fix one thing and another thing goes loopy :rolleyes:

But trust me, you have no idea how good this is going to be! I have been privileged enough to be able to download v2 and anyone who knows me knows I don't say good things about a rom unless it is truly deserved. Well v2.0 deserves the hype and I bet my life on the fact after you have tried this you will give up flashing because perfection is just around the corner ;)
[G1 Android Development] nakeman:
thanks Royalknight6190, i am falling in love with you now.:D
[G1 Android Development] protomanez:
Made me chuckle because it's true :rolleyes: can't friggin wait.
[G1 Android Development] bunu:
I tried 1.8 and I didn't like it. CM 6 was acting so slow on me so I wiped and flashed 1.9.1. THIS THING IS SOOOO FAST! I loved it and flashed 1.9.2. For some reason 1.9.2 was really slow. I looked at how much swap it was using and I was like :eek:

It was using my entire swap partition (which is like 192 mb for those days when I want to try out Sense). I did the firerat script patches and brought it back down to 25 mb swap and it sped up A LOT. Now it is acting weird. I'll just do a full wipe and see.

Thanks a lot man for this ROM. I loved it and don't mind doing a full wipe for 2.0. Can't wait!
[G1 Android Development] bambi23:
Swap

hey guys i have a mt3g (uk vodafone magic), i've been using this rom and must confess it is pretty special! I've never had to use it with swap, but am wondering if this (or indeed v2) will require swap, or is it only needed for the G1's?

ps. thank you royalknight et al for all the work you guys have put into this!!!
[G1 Android Development] Lateralos:
The ROM doesn't require SWAP at all, I dislike it so choose not to use it and it's been working perfectly. ;) As it's not a Sense ROM I do not believe v2.0 will need a SWAP. Also yours (and my phone) have basically the same Hardware as the G1 so SWAP isn't needed for either :D Hope this helps :p
[G1 Android Development] kingjehu:
I flashed 1.9.2 on my wife's mt3g o US T-Mobile and it's been running beautifully with no swap (but with compcache).
[G1 Android Development] badboy68:
ive been flashing this since 1.9, and it jus gotten faster and faster. like u said shadow/knight, if this will be the one rom closest to perfection, then so be it i will wait..

thanx for all your hardwork
[G1 Android Development] yohshua:
how do you know app 2 ext is working right? because all apps still say move to sd
[G1 Android Development] jonbron:
I did as you said and it booted fine, then rebooted during setup just like it says in the OP. Of course it got stuck in a bootloop again and I'm getting a no space left on the device error again...:confused:
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
did you wipe all in amon then boot into fastboot and wipe the system using this command in a cmd prompt on your pc:

fastboot erase system -w

that worked for me and everything besides Gmaps works.
[G1 Android Development] jonbron:
Seems to be working fine now, thanks for the tip.
[G1 Android Development] DroidDavi:
I'm having issues with my market app it was there then it went away after I turned my phone off I downloaded some apps and there still there but when I try to open the market it says app not on phone do I just flash gapps over or do I have to fresh wipe and do all of it over?
[G1 Android Development] infinitybiff:
I would stick with 1.0 or 1.1 for now until I can release 1.3 to current these issues.
[G1 Android Development] infinitybiff:
1.3 is live now
[G1 Android Development] DroidDavi:
Ok I got you 1.0 was blazing without the comp or jit so I can deal
[G1 Android Development] Abhi_UK:
DOn't worry I've seen the changelog.
[G1 Android Development] infinitybiff:
Per the instructions in the OP... check the "enable application moving" box and leave location to automatic... a reboot wouldn't hurt either. The apps are automagically installed to SD card. Maps should be fixed.
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
Hey Biff Just woke up so I will flash the new version here shortly after some coffee. But you might want to mention in the OP that people wipe the System in fastboot. I have seen this helps in all froyo roms. The command people would use in a command prompt is:

fastboot erase system -w

I did the review last night but I am going to redo it here in a little bit after I play around with 1.3 so I can give you hopefully all 5's. I will PM you when the review is live.
[G1 Android Development] bzy831122:
1.Fast

2.Unable to download theme（bit.ly/aJQWVr）

Any other address to download it?
[G1 Android Development] Eduardo911:
is a wipe needed to go 1.1 -> 1.3?

also, hows everyone rotation speed? it seems like popping out the keyboard (on 1.1 at least) results in a 5ish second wait for ADW to rotate and redraw the desktop. its pretty slow in apps too. tried multiple combinations of compcache and jit and all seem to be the same (always leaving home locked in memory tho. and have tried both 16 and 32mb vm sizes. dont notice much difference there)

other than that been doin great
[G1 Android Development] phiredrop:
Hey Royal, I've been trying to research how to set this up on my mac. Could you help me out, or point me to where I can find the instructions on how to correctly set up the SDK for the purpose of fastbooting and running commands?

I've never bothered with trying to run commands for my phone from the computer, but since I can't seem to get Biff's roms to not reboot, a proper wipe would probably do the trick like you suggested.

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] infinitybiff:
This is my fastest one yet... but maps appears to be continuing to force close. Looking into it. Sorry guys EDIT: Trying it with some different kernels to see if that changes it. Logcat indicates something to do with web browser (which the rendering method was recently updated so that might make sense)
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
Anything to help somebody out, here are 2 great links that will walk you step by step on how to setup sdk on your mac, first link is a how to and 2nd link is googles sdk files along with any other file you will need.

http://www.talkandroid.com/android-sdk-install-guide/

http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

Hope this helped, the rom will reboot once during setup and thats fine. anyways let me know how it goes, also love your sig...Romans rocks
[G1 Android Development] DroidDavi:
I have never wiped from fastboot how do I go about doing that?
[G1 Android Development] phiredrop:
Thanks for the links! I'll probably tackle that next week.

Yeah Romans is some crazy awesome stuff. Highly recommended ;)
[G1 Android Development] infinitybiff:
You don't need to do that... just do all the wipe options in amon RA 1.7 :)
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
And you probably never needed to, but for some reason Froyo does not like old stuff hanging out on phones, I have seen this now on 3 or 4 Froyo Roms where I didnt wipe system and the phone/rom acted weird or I had FC's then I wiped system re flashed and phone/rom worked fine.

If you are going to flash Roms you need to have ADB setup on your PC/Mac/Linux machine so at least you can run adb logcat during first boot and then if you run into any issues you can tell the dev which line and what it says...(RomUser: um my phone rebooted, Dev: why, RomUser: um...I dont know, it just did.) That stuff is ridiculas.

If you dont have ADB setup follow the links in my previous post it will help you or go to the Rom bible in the development section there is a guide in there.

Sorry Biff for getting off topic.
[G1 Android Development] tissle:
I been wanting to flash a new ROM on my phone for a while.

I'm going to wait for 2.0. Hopefully, it will come out today.
[G1 Android Development] bambi23:
thanks alot guys :) really looking forward to v2 :D
[G1 Android Development] Sp4rrow:
Expectations are high...
[G1 Android Development] bunu:
Wiped from 1.9.2 (the no-wipe upgrade from 1.9.1) and flashed 1.9.2, the black and blue theme, and the 614 mhz kernel and this phone runs fast and looks sexy!

If your phone sucks after a no-wipe update, then wipe!

Can't wait for v2!
[G1 Android Development] BobbyDukes707:
Fingers crossed... waiting patientlyish(not really a word but it works)...
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
Ok we got a few more things to fix and then its going to be released. Its almost ready, but just to wet your lips a little more, I am at 10 hours of moderate use on my phone and I still have 60% of battery life left.

Hope you enjoy the update. Thanks for being patient.
[G1 Android Development] fanbogo:
o yeah :) awesome !
[G1 Android Development] sl1k1:
This is gonna be an epic release..I appreciate the awesome work that has been put into this ROM..
[G1 Android Development] protomanez:
I will eat cake to pass the time. I better not be fat by the time it's released. :(
[G1 Android Development] tissle:
So is this release coming tonight?

Or would it be tmrw?
[G1 Android Development] kingjehu:
120 pages!

Expect the release on Tuesday. That way you're pleasantly surprised if it's released sooner.

We are testing now and early tomorrow what we hope is the final 2.0 build, and already looking forward to improving it further after it's released. You will not be let down. There's a good reason why BiffMod has become one of the most popular Froyo ROMs in the last month. It took a month for this thread to get to 55 pages. Three weeks and a day later, it has 120. All that growth comes from word of mouth (or keyboards). This is a great ROM and people are realizing it.
[G1 Android Development] hellokidbye:
Hi! Long time creeper of the xda forums, but I have to give you guys major props on this rom. biffmod was one of the main reasons why i decided to drop using my cliq and go back to my g1. again, thanks for this fantastic rom, and I am eagerly awaiting the release of v2.0, which will be a nice "gift" to have after my organic chemistry test tomorrow, lol.
[G1 Android Development] metalfangs:
Beautiful rom here! Thanks Biff Team anticipating 2.0 :D
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
XDA is back up and I will say everything is fixed and we are doing the final polishing and speed tweaks. so be ready to enjoy 2.0
[G1 Android Development] diorDNA:
There is no rom that can even get close to biffmod, this is the greatest rom that I have ever flashed, so much speed with everyting I do, and it always is stable too especialy for everyday use. I give nothin but props to RK and the testers that helped with it. Great rom :)
[G1 Android Development] diorDNA:
There is no rom that can even come close to biffmod 1.9.2, so much speed with everything I do,and it is always stable too especially with hard daily usage. I give nothin but props to RK and the testers that helped make it. I am so excited for the 2.0 release cause I know its gunna be really good too. Great work :)

[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
You guys asked for it and I know it took forever for us to get to you but here it is BiffMod V2.0 is out for your enjoyment. Have fun flashing this is a full wipe update make sure you follow the instructions via the OP. We also posted a MT3G version which does not move dalvik cahce to sdext. so flash either version depending on what you want. Or test them both out. But like I promised 2.0 is awesome stable and fast.

Thank you for waiting and making Biffmod the best froyo build around.
[G1 Android Development] hellokidbye:
AHHHHH 2.0 yay!!! Downloading it right now and flashing ASAP. So much for going to sleep haha (it is now 12:40 a.m. Las Vegas time) and I have a test in a few hours! But this is soooo worth it x]
[G1 Android Development] CoolWheelChair:
im drooling right now, flashin this sec.

so glad i didn't go to sleep 15min ago xD
[G1 Android Development] BookCase:
Wo0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0oT!!!! Downloading..

:D:D:D:D
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
Also we removed Gapps from the build so make sure you flash the BiffMod Gapps after you set your phone up. To keep the Rom legal we did it that way. Also if you run log cat its easier to find a problem them. enjoy.
[G1 Android Development] RichieRichyRich:
hahahaah I love the Portal boot screen, I cracked up when I saw it
