I just installed 2.1 from a fresh clean wipe and I must say that it is running stupidly slow. The set up wizard kept on freezing, took a good 10 minutes to finally finish. Now I am waiting for everything to sync up and it is laggy in every way, nothing at all is running smooth. Even waking up the screen takes a good 20 seconds for the back light to turn on. Don't really know what improvements were made to this version but they should be taken out. I have ran previous version and was quite happy with the speed and performance, but this one is completely unusable. I say back to the drawing boards it is fellas.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Here's the thing you need to know this is using swap instead of swap on default. you got to mess around with the settings for it
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
lol, you probably didn't even give this rom 5 min to set up the huge 60mb swap file that has nothing on it. So guess what, when you boot up the rom, you have to give your phone at least a few minutes, then use SetCpu to OC to 614mhz, so that way your phone will use more swap. Don't worry, your battery won't drain, I tried it last night, and left it on 614mhz max uncharged and hardly any battery drain.
[G1 Android Development] pimpsta08:
Please tell me that you are not asking me to overclock my phone to 614mhz so it can lock up. Because that's exactly what will happen to it if I do and you know that, so I don't really know why you are trying to mess up someone else's phone. Secondly I have been flashing roms way before you even were registered on this forum, so I know to give a rom some time to boot up. It's just your latest version just doesn't compare to your earlier work, and you can tell by all the comments people have been leaving in this thread about them being faster and smoother.
[G1 Android Development] dubski:
Thanks for all your hard work.

Does anyone know the best settings for a 32b with new radio.

Should I be using JIT etc?

Compache

Swap

SetCPU settings

Anything else?
[G1 Android Development] thisishoot:
wait, what? im not really understanding so its swap but not swap on default? i mean is swap on period or better yet could you share the settings your using?
[G1 Android Development] thisishoot:
yeah i tried to overclock it to 614, it helped me for about 45 seconds till it rebooted and this is after super wipe and the such
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
You obviously have no idea what you are talking about. Your one of those people that should not even have a rooted phone to begin with. My phone has never rebooted randomly or locked up and I leave it on 614mhz max all the time, so I guess my phone is magic or superior to yours?

Swap is on 60mb default on first boot if you have an ext partition, with 40 swappiness. If you want to change it just do /system/bin/swappy in terminal. don't use JIT, it makes the phone slower.

Yes it's on by default, period...

So I'm guessing your using some weird overclocker other than setcpu? Maybe it's because I have the paid version and not the xda version :rolleyes:

Did you set your setcpu min to 614mhz too? lol
[G1 Android Development] thisishoot:
lol yeah no i have setcpu from the market not the xda(didnt know they had one) and my phone rebooted (not after 45 sec more like a minute and thirty though). why would anyone set the min to 614? is that what yu have??

maybe it was a bad install? ill try again when i get more time
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
By xda version it simply means that if u are a member to xda u can get it for free. Its the same version just free for us out of consideration from the dev. If u set your min to 614 your a Muppet. How can u save battery life like that?
[G1 Android Development] thisishoot:
hmm the more you know..

and thats what im saying lol idont think anyone would do that unless they want

their phone void of life
[G1 Android Development] c0mrade2:
Hi sparksco! Will this rom be released on 32a? I know crissvillani hasn't a PC at the moment..
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
It should be. Just wait till cris gets PC back
[G1 Android Development] kingjehu:
I know many here have cognitive deficiencies, but that should not include the "devs." Some phones lock up and go into a soft reboot when they're overclocked, some don't. Just like CC might be better for some people vs Swap for others. Despite the phones being built to the same specs, there are differences in the way some things behave. I have two G1s. One immediately goes into a bootloop when I set the max to 614 MHz. The other one can be at 614 set to performance and never do that.

Spark's comments on that followed by the insinuation that the paid version of SetCPU might be different than the one posted on xda just shows his ignorance. I'm not a developer. I've been messing around with my phone since June. There's no reason why a "developer" would be so ignorant on the subjects he's supposed to know about.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
It's fine, a lot of people don't understand my sarcasim, I don't expect you to either. If your phone doesn't work good with an ext partition or overclocking, then why don't you just not have an ext parition, or disable swap and use cache. You've been messing around with your phone since june, so you should already know the best set up for your phone, not "my phone"

Edit: I have made a special one just for you, and other people like you, since you've been messing around with your phone since june and all. I added the option to use swap or the 32% CC hack, as well as a option to skip ext installation completely, or run the auto install. Obviously since you can't even state what class of sdcard you have, your sdcard might not be good for ext with swap and all. You don't have to repartition your sdcard, just select no on ext question

[G1 Android Development] kingjehu:
You seem to be giving me advice meant for other people. I know what's good for my phone. I tried CC at 32%. Didn't notice a difference from 26%. I have a 512MB EXT partition. I have a 32MB swap partition. My phone is running fine. What I didn't like was the misinformation about overclocking you gave pimpsta08 in the previous page.
[G1 Android Development] andycore:
-- post removed, given up and jumped ship to a different ROM til my G2 gets here. It's been fun, guys!
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Wow really? That's a first. Why don't you give the time for your phone to boot completely then say it again. Cause I don't got any problems using it

Sent from Nexus One using Tapatalk
[G1 Android Development] andycore:
I think three hours is more than enough time to "boot" when you're not flashing a new ROM.

Let's not forget that the phone was REBOOTED, not reflashed. It was wonderful being without a phone yesterday and on the road all day.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Well how did you wipe?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
I'm pretty sure that the OP says that these are in progress roms. If you don't like the progress part of it, then go make your own rom. If you don't know how to do a nandroid backup before flashing a rom, then you shouldn't have rooted it in the first place. So who's fault is it for not having a phone??? We are not responsible for ignorance, or just plain stupidity for your poor usage of flashing roms and using custom roms to your phone.

Despite a few complaints here is 2.3 with changelog and md5. If you don't like the roms then don't flash it

2.3 Changelog

1. Added more questions for users when flashing

Options:

-Davlik-cache to ext y/n

-Basic A2sd y/n

-Swap or CC ram usage options

-Data/data binds on ext y/n

-What kernel to install y/n

2. My scripts are much more complex and check for more things, making it a much cleaner install with more options

3. Modified 20userinit a little

Rom: http://www.mediafire.com/?49087csoqbs455r

Md5: 3b7e4d2b4dbac1e32f2ca7e3c27e3c27e0776
[G1 Android Development] andycore:
You guys are ridiculously quick to jump on the "you're a retard and not doing it right" offensive, aren't you?

I'm not blaming you or your ROM for jack here, mate. I'm pointing out what happened, and the action I took. I had a full nandroid backup, stored on my computer, in addition to a BART backup of the working state just after flashing. I just happened to be at work when I rebooted (from a PERFECTLY WORKING INSTALL, mind you) then ran into the endless splash screen issue.

I'm at present unaware of how to get files off my computer from the car whilst on the road without my phone's data connection. Next time, yes, I'll leave the backups on the SD card, so if and when it happens again I can just restore and be going in 30 minutes or less. Live and learn I guess. But seriously, don't make accusations that have no basis. I religiously back up EVERYTHING before I make any change, and I don't appreciate your insinuation that I am a fool just because your ROM suddenly f*cked up on me.

I understand you do this for yourself and share it with people on XDA-Developers just because you can, not to appease to everybody's needs and wants, however you need a serious attitude adjustment. I'm sure users are sick of being belittled and made out to be intellectually inferior whenever something goes wrong that can't be explained. The customer is always wrong, apparently.

When I originally flashed 2.0? I used the Ohsaka Super Wipe. Twice. That was when 2.0 was first released, and I have been running it perfectly fine since then. Up until yesterday 2.0 had been the most stable version of SparksMod I'd used.

I have no explanation as to why it decided to fail on me, being from a technical background I can certainly understand that being "in progress" is a perfectly viable reason for something to suddenly go from "working flawlessly" to "f*cked" on one reboot. It's not uncommon, and it is annoying.

I was going to attempt to problem solve but then after realising I had ordered a G2, I decided not to bother spending time on the old G1. Any time spent on trying to fix the issues I was having would be wasted, when I can simply flash a "cleaner" ROM (I've gone to BiffMod leaving on a jet plain, if it's any interest) and simply use it to get by on the basics until my new phone arrives.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
LMAOOOOOOOOO Biffmod? really? That's so hilarious because that rom is NOTHING compared to this rom. It's faster and we buried them
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
oh yeah and one more thing your missing is a logcat
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
by adding other peoples themes to cm6.1 ?

lol
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Your a lier!
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
asking a question makes me like you?

how?
[G1 Android Development] ReTro FuZe:
sooo...can someone be completely honest with me here...um...sparkz or laszlo...give me details why please...i want to stick with one rom already...this is driving me nuts lol
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Your not being completely specific. What kind of details would u like?
[G1 Android Development] ReTro FuZe:
Pros and cons i guess...like why is one better than the other? Which one is best right now
[G1 Android Development] d12unk13astard:
tbh 1.6.2 is my favorite sparksmod rom, just seems the smoothest and fastest with no lag whatsoever, i even just went back to it again after testing some gingerbread roms that were very nice but not quite as stable yet compared to SM 1.6.2.
[G1 Android Development] andycore:
Cool, whatever works for you bro. BiffMod is ****loads faster on my particular G1.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
I'm assuming your refering to 2.1, because 2.3 is the fastest froyo rom period, because of all the options it gives you when flashing
[G1 Android Development] egzthunder1:
OK, I have cleaned this major flame fest. To all the parties involved in this... cut it out. If you all feel like arguing, take it via pm (be civil there as well).Thread reopened...
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Honestly pm has not done much good. I would not even say anything if everything that Firerat post was not a lie.
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
I should explain what

if [ "`grep -q \ \/data\ /proc/mounts;echo $?`" = "0" ];

is for

grep

is Get regular expression

the -q flag put the program in quiet mode, ( it will not write anything to stdout or stderr ), instead if the expression matches it has exit code of 0, if not then 1

the \ \/data\

is getting grep to look for " /data "

tbh,

grep -q " /data " /proc/mounts

will achieve the same ( note the spaces )

;echo $? , returns the exit code of the last command ( in this case grep )

So, if /data is mounted, it will be in /proc/mounts , so grep will find it, and echo $? will result in 0

so, the shell will see

[ 0 = 0 ]

which is true ;)

if /data is not mounted..

[ 1 = 0 ]

which is false

there are other ways of doing this, it could for instance be done with awk

note the use of ;

this makes the shell realise that there are multiple commands on one line

grep -q " /data " /proc/mounts;echo $

?

is the same as

grep -q " /data " /proc/mounts
echo $?

Does anyone want to make sure we have enough free space on sd-ext before we try and copy the apks to it?

go on, have a go.. we can get you all upto speed with scripts in no time , then you won't need to blindly flash roms that contain fail scripts ;)
[G1 Android Development] heylord:
is it froyo or gingerbread?

wow firerat, thanks for explaining all that I'm not installing this one.
[G1 Android Development] mzmo:
Woah Firerat! You went all out. I like that.

Was just about to flash this rom until I read your posts.
[G1 Android Development] azrash:
Wow. Firerat
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
keep on topic

If ya'll want to post something that has to do with development of this rom please do so.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
You're back. How are u? Sorry has nothing to do with development. Lol
[G1 Android Development] cesarbric:
Wow Firerat
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Oh I'm still around here and there ;)
[G1 Android Development] Llywelyn:
Don't understand why Firerat is so haughty and contemptuous. We're all a community, right ? Everybody tries to add something to the projects, it goes from bug reports to dev or hacking.

Instead, you are just flaming other people around here laughing at them and always talking about "Your scripts". Why don't you go and make a ROM yourself with YOUR SCRIPTS ? Or why don't you let people test the ROM and see by themselves how fast/cool it is ?

What's the point on coming on the ROM's thread and making your ridiculous posts ?

I have no dev skills, but as far as I can tell, SparksMod was just one of the best FroYo roms for our Sapphire aside CyanogenMod's official 6.1.

I don't want to start a war. But have you already seen Ezterry, which is without any doubt at least as talented as you are, coming on the fork's topics of his ezGingerbread ROM and making fun of the devs ? This is just utterly ridiculous !

Thanks for your understanding. Sparksco, I hope you will soon release 2.3.3 Roms. FroYo is obsolete now...
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Well as sparksco has switched to evo shift now. Ill be trying to upload a new gb version. I don't know when though as I've got my g2 now and making roms for it as well
[G1 Android Development] cmsullivan:
What launcher is used with this Rom? Its the best launcher I've used but I can't find it in the market
[G1 Android Development] 313dash:
Its the Go Launcher. I have it on my G2 also.
[G1 Android Development] dw9906:
Great ROM. Thanks for all your hard work!
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
You should try pyromod on your g2, it's a good rom
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Glad you like it :D
[G1 Android Development] Maxamillion:
First of all i want to thank you for this amazing rom and all ur hard work!

Um i am having some problems, my phone was running perfect at first, but after a few weeks its running slow, the appps are lagging it to launch, and when i use the browser my phone becomes unstable and sometimes reboots.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Phone? Set up? CC or swap? CPU speed? Ect.
[G1 Android Development] Maxamillion:
i have the setup recommended by sparksco on the first page

- no swap

-compcache disabled for 33% hack

- jit enabled

-surface dithering enabled

-lock home in memory enabled

- lock messaging in memory enabled

- vm heap size 32

- set transistions windows to fast

- the cpu speed is untouched (i didnt mess with that)

i have a g1 32b

Is that sufficient info?
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
Lol. thats funny! Next he is gonna tell us to oc to 710 just cuz his phone can handle it!

Some info. All our phones are guaranteed to go to 528mhz. That's all. Past that it's just luck. some can go all the way up to 825. Mine only gets to 595.
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
Edit: drunk posting is a bad idea. Sorry about that
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
No need for swap or CC IMHO. And no don't overclock that high. Lol
[G1 Android Development] Maxamillion:
do you know how to disable the 33% cc hack?
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Can't remember off hand. Sorry. Look around the options. Maybe cmparts power options?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Just go into the cm settings and change it lol. Swap seemed to work the best for me but you'll need to decide that for yourself. You don't need to overclock it should run fine on 528mhz. You can also turn down the vm heap size if you wish to, like I said, it's your phone, so set it up to your liking.

I need help flashing this rom. I have the latest radio and spl, but my g1 always goes on a boot cycle.

Edit: I fixed it by switching to clockwork mod
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
What recovery were you using before?
[G1 Android Development] Miguel1rulez:
I was using Amon RA version 1.70. I got the rom to boot. However, every app keeps on getting force closed. I haven't even gotten to the set up yet.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Aw. Ok. probably because when I made this last froyo rom it was developed and tested on CWM ;)
[G1 Android Development] nolimit78:
Not to sound like a ****, but usually when someone asks for a mirror it's because they're running into an issue with what's currently available. I'm tethering via wire and it gives me an error after each countdown. So another mirror using something like 4shared would help me out and possibly others.

As far as Gapps, I have been looking in your mediafire folder and didn't see the main rom so I just dismissed it. That's my bad.

So would anyone help a brother out and provide a different mirror please?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Right now I'm working on 1.1.5. I'm just going to upload it when its done. Also a blue flashable theme

Hey bro,

Are you going to release a version of .5 that will be the same theme as .4? There is really nothing i dont like about the theme i have now. Love the minimal blacks and greys to be honest with you. Just wondering. Keep up the good work. Running smooth and awesome. Loving every minute of it. No problems whatsoever. Donation will be headed your way shortly. Appreciate your hard work

Hello,

First, spark: Great job. I was following since the RC...and the improvements are always great.I'm currently using the 1.1.4 and looks very stable compare to 1.1.3 O/C and very smooth.

I have some question:

- When Compache is usefull ?

- I would like to update/replace launcher po on this rom ( 1.1.4) how can i do it ? Need to compile my own version ?

Have a good day!
