I guess your not smart enough to figure out how to use this rom, so go use one that does works
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
The animations are in the theme, the ROM is completely stock though
[G1 Android Development] d12unk13astard:
Just for anyone wondering, I have the 2.22.28.25 radio with this 1.6.1 rom and it works flawlessly. The first boot takes about 4-5 minutes ya, but every boot after that it's like maybe 30-45 seconds if that. Thanks for the new themes btw I'm currently using the gingerbread theme and it matches well with my icons i use.

f u and this damn rom
[G1 Android Development] gurpreet470:
So if I want to install AndroidColorWashEvo4GBA.zip from this link, mediafire[dot]com/?0y1am5y4uk52l[/url] , how should I proceed?
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
The thing is, IDK if that boot animation will actually work on this rom
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Think of it this way, if you don't have a sd partition on your sd card then it won't work at all!

If it still don't work then use a different rom
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Just flash the bootanimation of choice in recovery and reboot

It'll work fine, it installs it to data/local and not the system
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Well seriously you've been on this thread for the past how many days now??? And how many people have tried to help you get it running??? If your smart enough to root your phone you should be smart enough to install a custome rom, NOT A STOCK ONE. With custom roms you need to follow instructions from the dev/OP, just like every other post :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] gurpreet470:
Thanks, I just tried and luckily it worked..., after one self reboot though :)

I see all of you reporting less load times, but for me, it has increased considerably..., almost doubled... What might be the reason? Eveything else is working normal...

Edited:

Just to add, I installed CM 6.1.0 DS 3 days before, which was working fine... and jumped up to SparksMod today, and it has doubled boot time....
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Mmmm, I'm not sure about that actually, I think that boot animation was back when we had a long boot time, so i'm not sure actually but if it's booting up normally then good
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
The more apps you install the slower it gets. Also you can do just a data factory wipe and reflash the rom/gapps. By doing this you will still have all of your apps and 89mb internel storage. My phone is really fast and staying that way now. Boot time is still a little slower with all my apps but the rom is faster still ;)
[G1 Android Development] gurpreet470:
Well, I would love to see it running faster than before!

Any suggestions anyone, where can I look up for more info? I am a software developer, so can dig my way if correct path is shown ;)
[G1 Android Development] gurpreet470:
Well, I just installed this mod 1 hour back, and I have tried rebooting like 10 times at least.. nothing new installed, everything stock....

I can try data factory wipe though... Thanks for the advice...

Let me check that out, and I will update here by tomorrow.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Well just mess around with your swapfile/swappiness settings that's what i do, same goes for sparksco
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
ok, make sure you install the newest kernel after you install the initial rom, the new kernel is much better than the old one
[G1 Android Development] anghellic:
vibrate

Everything is working fine, and I've reflashed at least twice trying to fix this, but my phone does not vibrate anymore. Anyone experienced/experiencing this issue?
[G1 Android Development] castaway1:
thenks for compliment :) i have new ideas for bars so stay tuned :) .

dock is my work too ;)
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Hook it up dude lol
[G1 Android Development] antinerd:
Job very well done!

I wiped, and re-flashed and now the audio on my video recordings is fine. Also, the new theme is seriously sweet! Thanks for an awesome rom!
[G1 Android Development] Kristion:
If i have the gingerbread theme installed. Do i have to wipe everything and reinstall the rom in order for me to have the new theme?
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
nope, themes are normally flash-ables on top of a rom (themed or not themed)
[G1 Android Development] shoe02:
I installed the rom, and everything seems to be working fine, except when I try to install apps from the market.

The apps will download, but when they install the phone will reboot into the second splash screen, and the apps wont install. I can't even get an update for google maps.

What do I have to do to fix this?

-Thanks
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Wipe dalvick. Re flash gapps. Reboot. Try again.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Can't wait to get home and see this. Thanks bro
[G1 Android Development] isikh:
Thanks! AND Thanks SPARKS aka Paul!

Also, Blahbl4hblah, where could I get the theme+animations posted in your video review? Could you please post the link here?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
np, you can flash it before you get home ;) Just download it with your phone and use a file manager to move it to the root of your sdcard
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Well you may have downloaded the old gapps with the broken market in it before on the first day of release fort this rom, just re-download the gapps again ;)
[G1 Android Development] tuthan:
Flash new theme, great. Thank you and merry Christmas :D
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
who ever said my name was Paul?

What's Ext3 or Ext4

Hey guys I understand all the directions and everything but I dont know what and ext3 or 4 partition is and how do I find out if I already have one on my sdcard and how do I get one. Thanks guys at XDA! I'm new to the site but I hacked my G1 last night and its awesome. looking to put this new theme on it today. Im kinda scared to do anything to my new G2 though! I dont wanna brick it or mess anything up :D
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
lol, oh yeah :D
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Well basicly you need to install the newest radio and spl if you didn't do that already, which requires that you install the android sdk on your computer. Just follow the video above and install the sdk from here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

After that all you need to do is partition your sdcard, so make sure you back everything up onto your computer first. Then use amon ra recovery to partition it with the partition sdcard option. I like ext4 but some people have said that ext3 is better. The rom will work on any type of ext partition, but if you want to use a swap file on ext like some of us are using, make sure you make it big enough, mines 500mb ;)
[G1 Android Development] isikh:
but in all seriousness, it's a great rom. Awesome work, bro. Also, what is the theme in the video review by blahbl4ahblah?
[G1 Android Development] jtl_777:
well when i put cyanogenmod6.0 on it last night I updated the radio to 2.22.23.02 so I wouldnt brick it. Sorry but I didnt understand most of what you said haha. would you say that this rom is better than cyanogenmod6.0? also I tried getting CM6.1 but it was a broken file and didnt work so I downgraded to 6.0. do you know of a non broken 6.1 or 2 maybe? What do you think about my G2 as well?
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
The theme I use in the video was gingerbread nobattery it can be found in crisvillani's tread in te mytouch android development.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
In my opinion yes this is more stable than the stock 6.1.0 because we have the extra ram, internal storage, and apps2ext which is really important for these phones. Stock 6.1.0 doesn't include a compatible kernel for the new radio/spl, that's where this rom comes in at :D It has pershoot's latest .10 kernel made just for this radio and spl for 32b g1/mytouch devices :D
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Just follow the instructions in the first post and the video by sparksco too. It'll help a lot. This rom is better than any other rom for g1 and mytouch. And for updated your radio lOok for the thread called ramhack 2.22.27.08 by ezterry
[G1 Android Development] isikh:
Thanks! Also, does it include the GB keyboard or do we flash that ourselves?
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
I flashed the keyboard myself if you were wondering from the video
[G1 Android Development] isikh:
Precisely. Thanks so much. I will post here if I've further questions. Thanks from bringing my G1 back to usability. :)

Also, for those of you who want it, Gingerbread theme here: http://www.4shared.com/file/0gEyA4-_/SparksMod161_GingerBread_V2.html?
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Oh yeah. Duh. Going to do that right now. Thanks. I can't wait. :)
[G1 Android Development] jtl_777:
Ok where do I get Ext4? and what is apps2ext? also I have a couple more questions :rolleyes: on some terms lol

Is gingerbread the same as android 2.3? where can you get it? What is baconbits and is it needed? Does CM6 or baconbits or any of this stuff overclock your phone? Thanks for all your help by the way

[Edit]

Okay so I downloaded and flashed that Gingerbread theme above ^^^ and now the startup screen keeps repeating itself... what should I do?

should I wipe and reinstall CM6 or wipe and do this new thing that this thread is about? I need some extra preparations to do this right?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
All of the information on installing the new radio/spl can be found here. The radio you want ends with 2708. Also there is more helpfull information in that thread in the comments that will help you understand and install it:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=831139

Once you get all of that set up you can use superwipe. I remade superwipe with a auto-reboot to recovery also. I'm not claiming that I made this superwipe, Ohsaka and ezterry made it, I just added the auto-reoobt:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11290772/Android/SuperWipe-Auto-Reboot.zip

Then flash rom and gapps and you are good to go

G2 info go to the G2 Threads, thanks!!!

This rom reaally is only for advanced users, so search the threads and GOOGLE for info on and educate yourself before installing this rom!
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Sweet man let me know how you like it :)

BlackChrome Optimized

Hey all, I was noticing a little lag issue with the BlackChrome Theme, so I decided to try and optimize it even more. Just updated the download link, just download and flash no wipe needed. I just did it and it really made my phone run fast again :D
[G1 Android Development] d12unk13astard:
Eh, not really. Anyone with half a braincell can just read the op. They just choose not to and be lazy by asking away the same questions over n over lol. People dont just need the 2708 radio either, it might be optimized for that when you created it but the 2825 radio has worked amazing with this rom as well!
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
It's time to throw away my battery haha, only had battery life for 6 hours then died

Let's hope the new battery works better lmao haha

I'm going to flash the optimized theme right now

@d12unk13astard: Don't take it as something negative towards you, It's because we've helped a lot of people and even told the simplest way on how to flash the rom and yet they still don't get it. If you were in our shoes, you'd feel the same exact way
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
You get ext4 in recovery under partition sd card or something, apps2ext means it sends the apps and data to the ext3 or ext4.

gingerbread is 2.3. You can't get it yet because cyanogen hasn't made one for our phones yet
[G1 Android Development] anghellic:
battery drainage

so I'm having some major battery drain using this rom. It doesn't even last a full 8 hours. I don't play any games. All I really do is text, phone calls, email, and use the browser once in awhile. And I love this rom as its super fast and snappy compared to all the other Froyo roms I've used. What have you guys done to get such good battery life?

my settings are as follows:

setcpu: 537 max 245 min

Swap: 40mb swap file/45 swappiness

SD Card: 8gb class 6

Correct radio/spl

VM Heap: 32
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
The honest truth is that, I'm having the same problem

I'm thinking it's my battery

OR just something else, What you can do is this, let your battery get to like 5% left then reboot into recovery and wipe battery stats, then charge it fully and that should fix it I think
[G1 Android Development] anghellic:
Okay thank you sir. I will try that and post an update, and I have a relatively new battery so I don't think that's the issue. We will see.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
You should mess with your settings for setcpu and make profiles

Btw, I found this camera mod, looks nice

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=880391
[G1 Android Development] anghellic:
yeah I usually only have one profile for when the screen is off and one for when the battery gets below 75 or 80 percent, how many do you have?
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
I got about 5 haha
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Merry Christmas to everyone, Hope everyone got what they wanted for christmas

I am sure I did XD
[G1 Android Development] jumpman707:
hey sparks is there anyway i could get the old black keyboard that used to be in your older roms. and by the way i love the room :D
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Are you talking about swype?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Well honestly I don't use the stock keyboard anyways, since I have a custom themed one. Plus it's just one more thing that I have to make, so probably not going to happen. Why don't you use the keyboard crisvillani and blah are using?
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Well I got both swype and gingerbread keyboard installed on the phone
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
You have the new swype with the voice option, the black chrome themed one?
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
no, the old one 1.60 version; the one you gave me a long time ago

Wanna give me the new swype?
[G1 Android Development] tearsphere:
perfect settings on 1.6.1

Alright, so I was told to change radio from 2825 to 2708, which I did... I am just curious what the perfect settings would be for me on my G1... I use it for mostly regular phone things (ie. texting, few apps, a little browsing) .... Just want a fast response time between things... Seems like the phone should be going faster then it is...

I am currently using COMPCACHE at 18% and no JIT and VM at32mb.... Ofcourse, messager and home in memory.... Looking at my phone stats below, what recommendations can you make for me...

btw, swap seemed slow, but may it wasnt set up right.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
For swap, just mess around with it that's basically it

Try sparksco's settings 35mb/35 swappy

BUT that depends on the class of your sdcard
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Wow

Well Sparks. I would have to say the theme you made decimated the idea i had in my head. Congrats for that. This theme is totally sick. No lag at all. At least not since its been optimized. Great work bro.

Merry christmas everyone. I got what i wanted. Hope you did as well. :D

Edit: Did flashing the new theme give back mj's wallpapers or did i miss something before? Just wondering. Im glad to have them back as well. Looks really good. Loving the detail on the menu. Thank you very much
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Yeah dude, this rom is his gift to us
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Well if your refering to the one with the green line and android with the black background then I know which one your talking about. Remember when I said I added it but it wasn't showing up with the older roms? Well I guess now in this new theme it decided to pop up as a little merry Christmas Gift :D
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Yeah. Its a great gift at that. I think I'll keep my phone right where it is unless a themed messaging app gets made with a themed keyboard that matches the black chrome theme. Then ill install that and be good to go. Love the contacts all themed up too. Looks better than anything i have ever seen.

Well im off to bed. Gotta get up before the kids i guess. Got in late so i only get a few hours sleep. Ill see you guys at some point tomorrow.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Well im loving it. However it happened. Thanks a lot bro. Looking good. :cool:est ever.
[G1 Android Development] Arkain2K:
Merry Christmas folks! I'll check back next week to see all the gifts you've left me in the previous pages :D
[G1 Android Development] prusokas:
Merry Christmas!!! So I have wonderful news ADW ex is out :D !!!!!You have to try it is fastest launcher of all times for our g1! sparksco can you make flashible adw launcher to replace our adw 1.3.3 with adw ex :rolleyes: And again Merry Christmas!
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
No I can't because its a paid app, go buy it! :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] prusokas:
I now have it and usingt it.ADW ex incredibly fast I recommend it to all!!! (and how can i replace it myself ?)
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Seriously? Download from market, install, done
[G1 Android Development] prusokas:
I know that :D No need to help now i did what i want :) I repaced my old adw with new uninstaled old 1.3.3 and instaled adw ex and now its default launcher ... :D
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
right well there is no system app for the paid one to just download and install with adb or anything

$ su
# mount -o remount, rw /system
# ls /system/app
# rm /system/app/ADWLauncher.apk

Or use Titanium Backup to uninstall it :)
[G1 Android Development] d12unk13astard:
Ya already downloaded it last night, Still got launcher pro just in case i do get tired of adw. Two presets that are sweet on it are the fast and iphonish, but only cuz the icons are much bigger and easier to press. If you got Applanet it's free :-P
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
U can also download home switcher free from the market to easily switch between the two or between say LP and adw
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Don't you have to pay for applanet now? Kinda stupid you have to pay for a app to get free paid apps. Besides that the developers deserve the money, so just pay for it.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Agreed
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
I completely agree dude, I downloaded it and paid for it. I love it a lot, made it a lot faster.
[G1 Android Development] d12unk13astard:
nope never had to pay for applanet you kidding me haha. Ya i agree good developers do deserve my money.. which launcherpro got :-)
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Yeah dude when I first watched the video of it I was amazed at how professional it looked and everything, that's what made me want to get it :)

Ander Web seems like a really good developer, and I've also heard he's a better programmer than Launcher Pro but that's neither here nor there
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
agreed! my favorite animation is num 6
[G1 Android Development] d12unk13astard:
the apps and games on applanet have both free and paid items that you dont actually have to buy to try them out, kinda conveniant imo since not all developers give free trials on their products.. especially now with this try for 15 minutes bull**** b4 its yours no refund..
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Well one thing I did notice today is that it wouldn't let me bill it to my tmobile account, which I think is bs. Every other app I've ever paid for let's me bill it to my account
[G1 Android Development] kwrose14:
Animations

I recall there being a SparksMod version that had cool animations when you pulled up the apps and un-locked the phone and all, and wanted to know if that will be available in a theme because that was amazaing looking.

Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Just download the themes from crisvillani's thread over at mytouch android development
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
The new ADW is way better than Launcher Pro, BTW, so it deserves your money more :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
WTH, my theme has windows animations and your totally telling people to use other themes?
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
**** I forgot dude my bad
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
no fighting

I added animation to framework

just push it to system/framework/framework-res.apk

no need to flash a theme if you dont want to
[G1 Android Development] kwrose14:
excellent, thanks. This will work!!
[G1 Android Development] d12unk13astard:
Ya that's what everyone says when a new version of any launcher comes out, then when the new launcher pro plus is out everyone and there mama will be swarming to that. I do agree that this new ADW is nice but i still prefer my LP+ over it.
[G1 Android Development] billquinn1:
Don't mean to interrupt your argument but I just wanted to give a "rom" experience" report. This is my first Sparks rom and I am pleased. Nothing just awful jumps out at you with the possible exception of the time at the "G1" screen. I had to flash it twice because I just can't read the instructions about rebooting. I thought it would auto reboot. My bad. Anyway I went ahead and did a custom MTD as well and it worked flawlessly and the apps to ext works as advertised. All in all a great effort. If I find anything interesting I'll report back.

You can return to yelling at each other.

PS Thanks Juangil for the framework file.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
ok, well the auto-reboot is only for amon ra, so with clockwork you need to select advanced and reboot recovery every time you flash something. I meant to put a message about it in the rom for clockworkmod recovery users, my bad
[G1 Android Development] yatzee:
i've got a problem on the rom co'z everytime i rebbot my phone when it turn on there always a pop up say proccess time need to force close..
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Does it give you any problems? Cause if not then it's just off the first boot and that's it then it's nothing
[G1 Android Development] yatzee:
nope dont have any problem with it.. and i try to wipe and install the rom again after the install my application got fc.. ist ok if use superwipe then install again.. maybe this work on my phone..
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Well IF YOU READ the first post, it says use superwipe to wipe the phone then flash the rom
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
I wouldn't even count on a lot of these people even knowing what the first post is or reading it because they would just rather be a pain in your...
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Andy Andy. Pastebin is your friend. (Or should be)
[G1 Android Development] d12unk13astard:
Not that this rom really needs this..

But is there a kernal update or older kernal that will support higher OC like around 652Mhz. I saw the thread that infinintybiff made about the universal OC that can go up to 825Mhz, but i just wanna try this rom @ the 652mhz sweet spot. Lots of people are reporting bootlooping cuz they obviously didnt know what they were doing when they flashed the OC kernal, i'm just wanting to know if it's compatible with this Sparksmod 1.6.1 rom.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Well to me it looks like you have a lot of processes set up, but most likely it's a bad flash. Did you use superwipe and everything? Also what's your sdcard class and ext partition size?
[G1 Android Development] andycore:
I pastebin'd it first... But being my first post, couldn't link to it :(

EDIT

Yep. Had to superwipe multiple times including wiping everything from Recovery, as a couple of flashes left it prompting me for my swipe gesture, which I figured should have been deleted when I wiped... So it was a bit of a rocky start, but from what I remember this flash had absolutely nothing underneath it.

My SD Card is an 8GB Class 6. My ext partition is 512MB, and formatted to ext4.
[G1 Android Development] d12unk13astard:
Just replace the http with hxxp for future reference :)
