[G1 Android Development] iLOSER:
love the rom! everything runs so smooth! no lags at all. rarely any force close too. but the only thing i'm having a problem with is trying to install apks onto the phone. i already check the allow unknown sources but every time i try install an app, it keep on rebooting. what am i doing wrong here?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
What's to come??

Full stock sparksmod rom, 100% compatible with new spl/radio, no kernel extractors, just rom and gapps. I'm keeping the animations though everything else is stock.

Good new's for you mytouch fender users and danger spl users, I'm making a seperate kernel flash port for the next major release :D
[G1 Android Development] glowinthedark:
HERE IS THE LINK TO THE THEME..see what you can do! thx

[G1 Android Development] Edubyah:
Does that mean myTouch 3g Fender users will get something out of the extra ram radio? Right now I can use the radios and I do use 2708 but really there isn't much if any improvement. Will we ever get a modified SPL like was made for the dream?

Glow in the Dark What I have attached is a flashable .zip for Sparksmod framework the rest you can Metamorph with the original theme from the original thread but remember not to choose "apply all" when doing it and do the phone.apk last or it will forceclose until you reboot.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
so these are metamorph's? I don't use the metamorph app, I just make my own flashable themes now, which is why everything is going to be stock rom releases for themers, so I can port all of these theme's over to the stock framework.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
no just a newer source code full stock rom, no kernel extractors in the rom or needed at all, and I'll make a really nice theme for it with the boot animation and theme.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
been running the stock dude all day

absolutely fast like a donut literally haha
[G1 Android Development] Edubyah:
My themes are flasable themes also the original theme he wanted was a morph so I adapted it to your framework and made it a flashable .zip the rest he can do with metamorph himself. I think you making this rom vanilla again would be a great idea and I am going to spread the word I don't know why it does what it does but it runs sooooo smooth and I am enjoying it.

PS What about starting a theme thread for Sparksmod? If you can keep the rom updated and themes are readily available this should be the top Dream/Sapphire rom.
[G1 Android Development] glowinthedark:
Thank you thank you sir..I apprciate it. And sparks great rom man..looking forward to what u have next!
[G1 Android Development] anghellic:
I tried doing as you said with metamorph as I also want to use this theme and when I try to unzip the theme it says the Theme Control file is missing or incorrectly written. I checked in the folder, there is a file, so it must be incorrectly written. I'm just not sure how?

Edit:

Here is what the file says:

Recommended!! Fast As Donut

Really really good work! I have flashed previous versions and I can tell this is one of your best roms, I will keep an eye on the upcoming 1.5

by the way... I LOve the Added animation on framework-res.apk :D
[G1 Android Development] Edubyah:
Go back in Metamorph and choose existing theme it will work then.
[G1 Android Development] xymic:
One of my fav. Froyo Roms! It looks nice and is very fast :D Thank you!

One problem though..when I play youtube vids, I only get the sound..no video. Why is that? I flashed another Froyo ROM and it works fine on it, but I flashed your ROM and it stops working again. Any clue?

Oh..that happens in Youtube app as well as youtube.com w/ browser.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
It might be a bad flash did you wipe dalvik before flashing 1.4.1?
[G1 Android Development] mzmo:
Woooah! Looks freakishly fast! :P is this based on the full stock one?

Can't wait for the release! Keep em' coming Sparks!
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
1.5 Complete

Alright so the 1.5 full rom is complete, fully stock, to be added to with themes and what not. I will check with the team and hope to have it released by tonight.
[G1 Android Development] mzmo:
Did you upgrade to version 2? If you havent, just search "Youtube" on market & download it ;)
[G1 Android Development] paoloc67:
living in Italy I was already evening so I could pass the link of the new version:D:D:D
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Good point, I will try and get that new version on the rom! I wish gapps were updated more...
[G1 Android Development] xymic:
Nope. I wiped dalvik before flashing 1.4, but I didn't wipe it after 1.4. I'll try it out and report back;)

Yep, I updated it, but still the same problem. I'll try out blahblah's (:D) suggestion
[G1 Android Development] mzmo:
Nice...I know right, they barely do it....btw will the 1.5 still have the +90mb free memory?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
No with this update you will have even more storage than before!
[G1 Android Development] mzmo:
Your kidding! Sparks how long before the release! :P
[G1 Android Development] Trek55:
Out tonight?, can't wait..
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
As soon as I can upload it, which with my internet connection speed right now probably all night, just kidding. As soon as it's done uploading.
[G1 Android Development] gcantu:
Sweet! Super excited!
[G1 Android Development] gcantu:
Wait you guys have over 50? My max has only been 31 and that's on a good day how is this possible? What might I be doing wrong?
[G1 Android Development] mzmo:
I think your on about the ram. I'm on about the internal storage available.

Oh yeah Sparksco, why is it my ram is extremly low?
[G1 Android Development] gcantu:
T
[G1 Android Development] mzmo:
Yeah mine too, but it doesnt seem to affect the speed, plus I don't use task killers I use Watchdog - Much better :D
[G1 Android Development] xymic:
Ok, I reflashed it, wiped dalvik, and videos still didn't play until around 2-2 1/2 hrs. later. As of now, the videos are playing flawlessly:cool:

And what? 1.5 is in the oven? :D Looking forward to that:)
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
Wow!! I miss this thread tons! I think I'm going to get back on the G1 just to flash 1.5 haha. Also good to see that this thread and rom is having HUGE success! Hats off to Sparks!
[G1 Android Development] crisvillani:
hows the g2??
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Mmmm, looks like you did some last minute changes to 1.5 since last night ahha
[G1 Android Development] anghellic:
1.5

on first boot of 1.5 I was already signed into my google account.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Well did you do a full wipe?
[G1 Android Development] anghellic:
Yessir, I'm rewiping and trying again. Probably just missed wiping sdext somehow:p
[G1 Android Development] anghellic:
yikes.

Never seen this before. Upon completing the initial setup everything started force closing. Going to reboot and see if that helps. Otherwise looks like starting back at step 1.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
We miss you too buddy ;)
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
It doesn't sound like you followed the instructions on the OP for wiping
[G1 Android Development] anghellic:
Followed them to a T. Always do. Rebooted and everything is up and running perfectly. Setting up swap as we speak...Erk...my phone just froze...one last reboot...seems to be working now. Now I'm setting up swap.

Edit: ugh...I think it's just been one of those days...open terminal, superuser permission, always remember, type the code just as it says in OP for setting up swap, error: cannot open file...
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
the file was changed, it's called IConrad01.txt
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
yeah I just finished updating the OP as much as I could, I made it easier to type in terminal:

$ su

# sh /system/etc/IConrad01.txt swap

# reboot
[G1 Android Development] anghellic:
Success. Thanks again for all your work and for making (hands down) the BEST froyo rom for the G1!
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Enjoy the best rom ever then haha

I'll make a video review soon enough
[G1 Android Development] Edubyah:
Sparks is the 2708 pershoot kernel included? If so do myTouch 3g Fender users have to change kernel first? Just checking one of those I know you know..lol. Do you think a 2708 kernel will ever be made with the Fender driver included?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Yes it is included, tell me what port you need and I will make it happen

Edit: I'm still unclear about which kernel port you need, 32a or 32b?.
[G1 Android Development] BobbyDukes707:
So how many of you guys use Compcache and how many use swap?

Thanks Sparksco! I thought Biff was the end all be all... I was wrong!
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
The G2 is amazing! Fully rooted and now trying to understand how this phone works haha. Its different then what I have been doing and what I know haha
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Well on the previous version is seemed like swap was working better but now I can't tell because it's just so fast. I'm going to play around with settings and see what I can come up with for the best results. But so far the swap settings on my sig work well for me ;)
[G1 Android Development] Edubyah:
Technically my phone is 32a but it uses the 32b pershoot kernels that include the correct touchscreen drivers. These drivers have been included in pershoots and cyanogen kernels since CM5. I have tried pershoots 2708 kernel and it never finished booting it was right there at the end no bootloop key lights turned off and bootanimation just stays going never hanging just playing like a movie. Seems like if the drivers weren't removed it would work I use the same kernel as Dream 32b from pershoot 2.6.35.9 on BiffMod I use 2.6,34,7-cm6-Biffmod-ezterry@zach #2. Think I should just flash a pershoot kernel after flashing your 1.5?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
No this already has pershoot's kernel in it for 32b, I'll make another one for 32b for the other radio if you want, but flashing two kernel extractors on top of each other won't work good, your phone will not boot.

Edit: It's uploading right now
[G1 Android Development] Edubyah:
That's what's crazy cause I use 2.22.27.08 radio. Am I losing any performance if I swap kernels before I flash?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Well then it should work fine. The one I'm uploading is just pershoot's normal 32b kernel, no ports for 2708, so if neither one of these work then I don't know what to tell you buddy.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
The reason that pershoot's kernel wouldn't work for you is because i'm not using the same method to extract and install it like he is. I could never get his stock one to boot either. Have you even tried flashing it yet? don't mess around trying to swap kernels, 1.5 should work fine. If you could flash 1.4.1 then 1.5 will work fine.
[G1 Android Development] Edubyah:
1.4.1 wouldn't boot I flashed pershoot kernel like stock CM to make it boot.
[G1 Android Development] Edubyah:
I'm wrong

I remember now I pulled everything you changed from the update.zip except the kernel to make it boot. That way I had the newer framework and so on whatever..
[G1 Android Development] Kristion:
just flashed 1.5 and it is really lagging. I didn't have this problem in the previous 1.4.1 rom, that was blazing fast. Used the exact same method and followed the instructions, wiped everything etc. What do you suggest?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Well if you just flashed I assume your phones still doing stuff. Give it time, get all your settings right and it will be fine. Also reboot at least once.:rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Well buddy to late, I have a compatible one with just the normal pershoot kernel for 32b: http://www.mediafire.com/?d5ce72fi1625m57
[G1 Android Development] Edubyah:
Thanks Sparks that saved me and feel better about it being the way you intended rather than me just swapping stuff in the update 'till it works thanks again.

If I theme to this one will it work for everybody else on 1.5?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Yeah let me know. Yes it will theme the same
[G1 Android Development] Edubyah:
Yeah it booted but it's got that green render from the 263 nightly last time I had to flash kernel to make it go away what do you suggest?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
I already have one with no kernel extractor, I thought something like this might happen, just give me a minute. I'm starting to wonder if pershoot even makes normal kernels anymore like he use to.
[G1 Android Development] Edubyah:
Is that why the nightly builds started that? The kernel extractor?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
No according to ezterry we g1 and normal mytouch users still need a kernel extractor, but it sounds like yours doesn't, so I changed the updater-script and removed the kernel extractor, it's uploading now ;)
[G1 Android Development] Edubyah:
Damn man I can't believe you'r going through all this trouble....by now I'd expect you to say go back to 1.4...Don't think for a minute I don't appreciate it I'll get you back one day thanks man.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
np, do you have ubuntu? If so I have a great png crush script that will optimize a whole folder like for theming. I'm trying to get good themes for the framework for this rom but I don't want them to slow it down any. This stock theme on this rom still has castaways status bar mods but I optimized it, so other themes may not run as good as the stock one. Let me know if you want to try out the script.
[G1 Android Development] Edubyah:
I can optimize in APKManager and I zipalign in my SDK I have the Virtual Box and the Ubuntu but haven't made bootable image yet really didn't think I needed too with these? I have never made a bootable image for anything and I stopped there should I get it installed?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
basicly it just compresses the png files in the framework-res.apk if you extract them to a folder on you linux box. Then you cd to that folder and paste these commands in in terminal (on computer not phone), and it will do everything for you. Once it's done just manually place the images back where you got them from and that's it:

#!/bin/sh
for png in `find $1 -name "*.png"`;
do
echo "crushing $png"
pngcrush -brute "$png" temp.png
mv -f temp.png $png
done;
[G1 Android Development] Edubyah:
All png's ...9patch too? What is the batch optimize I do in apkmanager doing?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
I don't know about apkmanager, I'm just saying that's what I do, here's the rom: http://www.mediafire.com/?aun71mih5cfvnh4
[G1 Android Development] paoloc67:
but the v 1.5 is the CyanogenMod 268 clean,missing the theme, missing your bootanimation, miss your backgrounds.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
not for long, I'm making a new boot animation right now that I'm porting over from the evo, that I will be able to flash to the ext partition so it won't take up space on the system. Don't worry I will have my whole new theme with still castaways status mods in it. Also if you choose stock black cyan it's just my black mod again, so it looks the same. I'll be done with it soon, just be patient because I don't like it when people get pushy!
[G1 Android Development] paoloc67:
ok thanks for your excellent work
[G1 Android Development] mzmo:
Awesome rom! thats all I have to say! ;)
[G1 Android Development] Trek55:
Edubyah..are you making theme for this rom?
[G1 Android Development] Spakainz:
Hi, I love this ROM, without doubt the best froyo rom ever. Thanks Sparksco !!!:D
[G1 Android Development] stlouie65:
First off, Another GREAT ROM build.

I have a small issue. I've wiped iaw the instructions. When it boots, the color of everything is GREEN. Am I missing something

Edit: I've tried the 2708 version, the colors are fine, get the the bootanimation, but then it reboots.
[G1 Android Development] gcantu:
Glad to here I really miss the boot animation too lol. Not sure why but I do! I feel like this is how the g1 should have been sold. Super work!!
[G1 Android Development] Edubyah:
I had same problem on Fender My Touch I had to download pershoot kernel from rom manager. I know Sparks has done lots trying to fix this on these phones I need to let him know.

Are the scripts still in the ROM? I had to use my sdcard scripts for swap.

Here's the theme that Anghelic requested I went back and optimized all png's and zipaligned all apk's so Anghelic re-flash this one and everybody enjoy it's a port of Simplistic -http://www.mediafire.com/file/ba6lb5vu2h8uazl/SimpleSparks1.5-optimized-zipalign.zip
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
everything on my end is working like it should, did you follow the OP fully?

It might just be a bad flash
[G1 Android Development] lolmensch:
hm i couldt flash it.... mountsd failed. sd-ext couldnt be repaired --> apps2sd disabled
[G1 Android Development] Edubyah:
I had same problem didn't go away till I installed kernel with ROM Manager even the bootanimation is green on mine.

turning on usb storage

updated to 1.5 and I love the changes made. However I am still unable to connect phone to pc via usb to perform file transfer. I select connect via usb from menu, the connection screen comes up, I click ok and the cursor just spins and spins as the phone never connects to the pc.

I have flashed twice and still not working.

Any suggestions?

Which ROM to flash?

So i have a G1 with radio 2.22.23.02, should i flash the 2708 port or the no kernel extractor 1.5 ROM??? :confused:
[G1 Android Development] lolmensch:
use dual mount sd widget. (it's not free)
[G1 Android Development] lolmensch:
my bad:

i used SparksMod-1.5 Fender/Danger SPL: http://www.mediafire.com/?pgmtm9syytf5g

usb mount

is this something that has recently changed in the builds?
[G1 Android Development] crisvillani:
The green screen problem is a glitch in the latest nightly, if you go over to cyanogen forums, a lot of people have this problem, and a lot dont, its strange.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
You can only use the 1.3 Rom since your not on the 2.22.27.08 radio

Exactly what steps did you take? Did you fastboot wipe? Use superwipe? What spl radio phone? Wipe ext?

Thanks for the link I'll have to check it out.
[G1 Android Development] maxmyo:

New Theme uploading

I'm uploading the new Sparksmod/Castaway theme with random boot animations. So far I only have two that I like, If you have one that you made and want me to add it in, just let me know, we can now add as many boot animations to /data as we want, of course given that we don't run out of space. You can flash this on top of a fresh rom install, or just flash over the one you have now. Also I'm not even going to reply to stupid questions about how do you use your phone, if you can't search the settings on your phone maybe you shouldn't be having root or flashing custom roms :rolleyes: Check for the new themes link on the OP :D

[G1 Android Development] anghellic:
If I just want to put one of the boot animations, and not the whole theme, can I just erase the original boot animation from /system/media and copy one of the new .zip files to /data/local ?

Edit: Answered my own question. Yes.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Installing new theme right now. Awesome. Cant wait to see it go. This thing flies bro. Using the same 32 swap file 30 swappiness i've been using and its running crazy fast. Great work yet again

Did you get your g2 yet? Saw mj got his going. Guess he's liking it. Maybe ill get one soon. :D

A rom that flies, theme that looks slick as always and really cool animations. What else can you ask for. Lovin it. Thanks guys. Also really glad to have the wallpapers back in. The one with the green swirl with sparksmod in green looks really good with the new animations when you open an app.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Not having any problems here. But i am on an original mt3g. Did you try to wipe and re flash? Delete the folders that are listed in the op? Run a logcat while you tried to download something from the market? That might help.
