1.1.5 is the base. I already have a no wipe update from 1.1.5-1.2 that I will upload tomorrow.
[G1 Android Development] Blackman778g:
Eye 2 Eye

Thank You, now we see eye to eye.

Flashing 1.1.5 and then 1.2. Will report back any problems. Also... nice dramatic boot screen looks perfect.
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
yah, roms aloot better with the other kernal bro. but i did notice the battery drops like crazy now. and all i do is txt. like i can count the number as they drop. lol. but alot more responsive now. haven't found any major issues yet. flashed yesterday as soon as u brought it out. and i'll donate more as soon as the bills get paid! ha. thanks man.:D

Best Froyo!

Let me just start out by saying your ROM.... is the best Froyo ROM out there! This ROM has not even lagged/frooze on me yet. I have alot of apps and it is still very snappy. This ROM makes Chromatic look bad now.

Good work, will have to try and donate to this.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Awsome thanks! As far as battery life goes, turn down the CPU with SetCpu! More power means less battery. This rom runs fine for me at 537mhz. I believe this is also in the OP so this will be the last time for reminders. :confused:
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
yah yah. haha. i read it, i was just tryin it without setcpu for now.that was the test run. :p gonna hook it up right now tho. :D
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
oh yeah man the battery will really drain quick if your don't use SetCpu, basically your phone will be out of control even with the stock kernel lol.

Low Memory Issue still

I dont know whats going on, but I am still getting a low memory issue after a clean wipe of everything and install of the 1.2 and following the OP.

Is there a specific reason this is happening ? The only version I recall this didnt happen was the 1.12
[G1 Android Development] BoomBoomPOW:
Google Voice app force closes. Must uninstall & install for app to properly work.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Probably because it's cm6.1.0 nightly

Edit: My google voice works fine
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
I think we all are having low memory issues. I found that auto memory manager, which is an app on the market is helping me pretty good. Right now I have 21mb of memory free, before I only had around 10mb free. Also that app has help tremendously with the battery. Also my settings right now are: jit on, comcache on, lock home on, message in memory off, vm heap size 24, setcpu 556mhz max 245 min. Spare part settings fast.

Hope this helps you all!
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
Google voice takes up tons of memory, so use it if you absouletly have to. I enabled it and it ran me phone down to the ground. I deleted the app and my phone now runs pretty good. Also if you uninstall google maps and reinstall it, it seems to work better....humm....don't know why but it does.
[G1 Android Development] darkphoenix2012:
I've had browser issues, and sluggish response times with this rom. Tried a plethora of different settings and wipes / clean installations. Had it working just fine besides a lack of memory since CC was set to a lower number. Will give this newest edition a go, the older releases didn't do this for me, I hope 2.2.1 is where it's at! Otherwise this rom is the most aesthetically pleasing one i've ever had.
[G1 Android Development] nimms:
It takes a lot of time to boot /reboot.. is that because of boot animation? i have ext/swap on my sd
[G1 Android Development] kwrose14:
low memory

I have always been told that the apps would automatically be moved to the sd card and there is nothing we need to do, and now once again I see that I manually need to move everything again as in other ROMs. I am just looking for a correct answer because that is the one deciding factor for me in using this ROM is that I didnt need to change any of those settings or run any scripts on a regular basis.

Thanks for any assistance you can provide with this issue.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
No you don't need to manually move the apps, that's why I have 81mb of internal memory still even with all the apps included. You probably aren't wiping or flashing correctly. I have not had one single problem with apps2ext with 1.2
[G1 Android Development] kwrose14:
I am wiping and flashing as explained on the OP and yet I am still arriving at low memory warning after the downloaded apps are installed. I have not started to install the apps that are on my sd card. For your satisfaction I will go ahead and do it once more.
[G1 Android Development] naripsta:
Flashed it earlier tonight, am very happy with the results so far. Very quick and stable, for me at least. No troubles. :)

Thank you.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
this is going to be a stupid question

Read the title. Lol. Old apps2ext method. Does that mean you dont need ext3 partition? Not really Educated a lot on apps2ext or a2sd for that matter. Its changed so many times. Just wondering if someone can clear that up for me. Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] darthlukan:
This may sound silly, and may be unnecessary, but have you tried skipping the first google login, setting up app moving, etc and then rebooting the phone before logging in to market? That's how I do it (even if it is not needed) and it works for me. If you are already wiping and reflashing, it can't hurt to try.
[G1 Android Development] kwrose14:
This may sound silly but from the OP this doesn't appear to be necessary as it looks like it is not necessary to have to move apps, that it runs like it should using apps2sd as in the old versions.

I have no issues moving my downloads to the external, and change the default install location. I have been told all along that is not necessary with this ROM as it works all by itself. Everytime I have fastboot -w and flash the ROM and the GAPPS after I get half way through the downloaded apps, it comes up with a memory low message. I just want to be sure there are no other steps necessary as has been explained in the past, "just wipe flash and download away". I just want to know if it is only me that is having this issue or it is others and they are just manually moving items themselves. I am just wanting to know how to properly handle this so that I can completely set up my phone again.

Thank you for your help and assistance.

Below is the listing on the OP which is different from what you have told me to do above.

Full wipe required if coming from anything other than SparksMod-1.1.1 I can not guarantee that the no wipe thing will stick. These roms are changing constantly since they are still in the development stage, or at least until Cyanogenmod is completed with cm6 development for the dream/sapphire.

Apps2ext partition is now automatic. That's it, feel free to install as many apps as you want worry free from reboots to move apps, slow boot times, or running terminal commands to move the apps to ext when you get low on space.
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
dude, you werent playin around, i highly recommended installing "auto memory manager." have u checked it out sparks? its not a ware, soo. u could even add it to ur next update. i just installed it last night, and my phones been unplugged for almost an hr with just minor txting, and im still at 100% its retarded. annd the phone feels alittle faster too. ive got it set on aggressive. also, if you dont use google voice, i also recommend uninstalling that as well. idk if thats whats helped my battery as well, but, basically. my phone is officially legit!
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
yah. you dont need to move the apps at all! whats ur ext partition? im usin ext3 then repaired after. try that. you shouldnt have to move apps, when he says its auto matic, its really automatic, and if ur still havin a hard time and cant figure out what ur doin wrong. check out http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=717874 and do a custom mtd partition. so u have more room. i dont NEED to do it, but i do it anyways, and ive got

6984654987489451 apps. ok, maybe like 80,(counting gapps) and i still have 104mb free. check it out.
[G1 Android Development] kwrose14:
I have an ext3 or 4.

I have done that before and was looking for some clarification if I need to do that still because the OP says I dont that it is "automatic", and yet I am still having issues. But yet I need to move the apps because it is not behaving like it automatic on my phone.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Have u gone into the terminal and checked to see if your apps are in your ext3 partition? I did and mine are. I did check the allow app moving in settings though.

Open terminal and type:

su (enter)

ls sd-ext/app
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Logcat's

I am going to request this on the OP as well, please provide logcat's, you can post and save them here: http://cyanogenmod.pastebin.com/

I will have a fix for 1.2 but it will requere a full wipe of everything. This will be the base platform for future no wipe updates.

Also this is the new method of apps2sdext being used and it works great: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/2636-froyo-apps2sdext-2010-08-12-new-v12-include-apkmanager/

Sooo Close to having the best ROM setup!!

Is my G1 just dying? Well I flashed 1.2 and it was blazing FAST!! But then I remembere to flash G.apps so I went on and flashed it on top and now the phone is slow,freezing, and giving me constant force closures.
[G1 Android Development] cesarbric:
any reason why, when I type reboot from adb or terminal emulator it wont reboot? got a message:# reboot

reboot: not found

other than that everything works fine.

I really like this rom but its always one thing I'm sick of in froyo roms recently and that's the ability to multi task I have no problem with the battery drain cuz my phones on the charger most of the time so is there something I can do to get multi tasking back or am I just screwed?

[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
u talkin about fr's custom mtd settings? or just partition settings?? if ur talkin about fr's custom mtd settings, leave that stock. u really dont need it tho.

but if ur talkin about partition settings. its really whatever u want it to be. i do 0swap 256ext and then remainder, then do ext2-ext3 and repair. parks is a gangster, and made it to where we really dont even need swap.
[G1 Android Development] jkoenig00:
Same here....
[G1 Android Development] bl4cklabel:
Nope, already running without swap, I was asking about custom mtd partitions.

Thanks for the reply though, just trying to get everything set up for optimal performance..which seems to be a never ending process... at least with froyo...

--edit

Has anyone successfully downloaded the 1.2 no wipe fix? If so could you please upload to a mirror and provide a link for us as dev has uploaded the file as "private" so I haven't been able to download it.

I'm coming from another Rom (ZX 2.1 HERO) and it's awesome, but I want to get back to Froyo. Looking forward to trying this Rom out, but not sure if i should flash 1.2 first and then the 1.2 nowipe or just the 1.2 nowipe. Any help is always appreciated.
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
read the op homes, u flash both, :D
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
yah idk if u got what i was sayin, but i used the custom mtd too,(even tho we dont need it.) u dont need to change anything on it, just use the 2 dl's fr provides. no need to change anything around.
[G1 Android Development] l30r0:
Yea, I went through the OP and figured that's what it was, but wasn't sure. thanks for the confirmation.
[G1 Android Development] Blackman778g:

[G1 Android Development] kwrose14:
I saw your earlier requests looking for them and figured while I was going to post the new one, I would help you out and post the others that I had saved.
[G1 Android Development] bl4cklabel:
No i got you, and I appreciate the input.

I was in fact talking about fireats custom mtd script, to clarify.

But I think some people might have to setup the custommtd.txt file or whatever depending on the spl they're running. not sure though, but the way i understood it was the different spls have different size system partitions.

once again. thanks for the input. kind of a newb to the whole android scene, but I'm one of those people who has to mod everything possible, and I'm learning fast. Glad I found such an awesome community to learn from.
[G1 Android Development] Blackman778g:
Well, I have to say this ROM is stable and I know the G1s meager 528mhz proccesor is trying to manage froyo. I installed Auto Memory Manager as someone here suggested earlyer but now anothe problem pops up!

Setcpu 2.0.3 for some unknown reason can not obtain root?!?!!.Tommorow I'll read the logcat and see what is goin with it.

In the meantime.. any suggestions?

wipeable zip file

-Wipe everything, flash the wipeable zip file and then wipe ext partition.

which file is the wipeable zip file? is this the wipedatacachesystem file?
[G1 Android Development] Asswipe44:
want to try this out but the link for the sparksmod-fixes is nonexistent as the file is set to private on mediafire...

please fix
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
ohh. gotcha. :D and yup. welcome to xda. the legit android community ha.

thats a trip. u try uninstalling and installing? kinda dumb question, but ur not talkin about super user permissions are u? like maybe u might've hit no when it asked. hey. never know. ha

yep. thats the one! :D

Low Memory

Something stil is not correct. I followed the directins on the OP and still getting the low memory warning after 25 or so downloads. The apps2sd obviously not working correctly still. If I go ahead and make the changes to install on external, I am unable to even move the downloaded apps to the sd card, as I get a "failed to move application" message every time. Yes I even performed a fix sd card in recovery, and ran a fix permissions.

What else am I to do so that I can completely restore my phone to complete functional status with my regularly used apps on them? Something has got to give!

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
wow bro, if ur still havin issues, and ur sayin u did everything according to the op, then i would recommend just usin the custom mtd i have in my sig. outta curiosity, what are u partitioning ur sd to?
[G1 Android Development] l30r0:
Are you using the customMTD? and if you are, are you using the default partition sizes? Just installed the rom and trying it out before I decide if I want to use the MTD hack.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Thanks for the logcat, the wifi issue is not present is 1.2-Stable
[G1 Android Development] nickislauw:
Is the new one based on the tmobile 2.2 OTA ?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
I also skip sign in because I never have a data signal right after flashing. This is what I do and it works good.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
I'm on the 2005 bootloader, aka danger spl.

Edit: Most of the time people use custom mtd partitions because they do not want to install danger spl, and need more system memory to flash cm6 roms.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
There was a lot of low ram issues with previous versions, wipe and flash 1.2 stable
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
No it's based off of the latest nightly for cm6, but it runs much better than previous versions and includes much more apps.

Edit: T-Mobile has a 2.2 OTA for g1?
[G1 Android Development] nickislauw:
lol no for the mytouch 3G 32B !!:D

its rolling out today till next week :)

[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
lol, well seeing as this is the g1 development section and I have a g1, I would not be expecting to see it here.
[G1 Android Development] nickislauw:
But hardware is the same so it would be veeeeeerry easy to port, or use.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
very true, but I'd rather be on cm6, it's already ported
[G1 Android Development] nickislauw:
but my guess is that stock will be much better then CM...sorry cm:P
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
sweet man, if you want to port it go for it
[G1 Android Development] nickislauw:
lol i cant port ? :P

im only flashing roms, im not a dev or something
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
yah, im usin it, yup. just got the default sizes. i've got like 80 apps, and still have like 105mb free. just keep in mind that u dont NEED it, i just use it cause idk..cause i can? lol and good piece of mind knowin i have a bunch of room. ha
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
hey sparks, whats the difference between the 1.2 fixed, and the stable?
[G1 Android Development] l30r0:
Noice, good to know it's there if I ever do need it. Although, from the looks of it, everything seems to running really smooth so far. Definitely one of the best froyo rom I've used.
[G1 Android Development] kwrose14:
I am not using the customMTD because I have been told I shouldn't have to. I have a ext3 partition of 592. I can try to use that but dont see the point. Back to the drawing board again.
[G1 Android Development] ivans13:
I'am having the same problem. After "Obtaining IP address..." it does nothing, and it doesn't connect. Otherwise this ROM is mostly really fast and the only thing not working is wifi, and had some problems with Market FC but solved them..
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Everything, I'm not going tp get into the scripts because then it gets really confusing.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
How did you solve the wifi problem? My wifi works fine, as I said before the wifi issue has been fixed. Please only report real issiues! The only reason that wifi might not work is if you don't wipe. In which case you are on your own as far as I'm concerned if you don't follow the op.
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
fair enough! :D well its goin good so far. my phones actually still pretty smooth with cc off and no swap hows that work? lol
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Open terminal emulator and type su and enter, then type sh /system/etc/fr-patch140-Kanged.txt swap
[G1 Android Development] bl4cklabel:
I wiped multiple times, and tried re-wiping and reinstalling a few times too and I too was having the wifi issue. did a nandroid back to 1.15 but my nandroid +ext backup got messed up when it comes to the ext part so looks like I'm going to give 1.2 another shot.

Will post logcat if wifi decides to not work again.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Ok, well we'll see if anyone else has this issue. Did you wipe with the flashable zip file?
[G1 Android Development] bl4cklabel:
first time I just wiped via recovery.

Second time I used flashable zip and wiped everything manually too.

Not sure if I'm going to flash this rom again though, the whole compache thing is kind of important to me.
[G1 Android Development] cesarbric:
would you please post again if your wifi got fixed, I am still experiencing problems with wifi, did wipe and reflash 3 times, follow the instructions by the letter and still the same.
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
negative.

"sh: can't open /system/etc/fr-patch140-kanged.txt"

thats what i get.

ohwell, no biggie bro. im happy with what ive got. :D
[G1 Android Development] stevetha1:
capital K as in Kanged
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
The wifi works, when you flash just flash EVERYTHING [factory, cache, davick, sd, battery and rotate] then just fix the sd ext thing and partition like regular

That's what I did and everything is running as it should

GOODJOB SPARKCO

I can't really see the notifications too well but could just be me

Best Froyo rom I've used so far without ANY lag
[G1 Android Development] cesarbric:
My bad, I guess I did it all wrong, because I WIPED everything but I did not flash all of that that you are mentioning, let me try FLASHING all of that you say. Thanks for the information
[G1 Android Development] kwrose14:
So is there a difference between the newer 1.2 than using the previous 1.2 along with the SparksMod-1.2-Fixes-ReadOPBeforeFlashing.zip ?

I am about ready to set up my phone completely with apps and all since it appears to be running properly for me, and just wasnt sure if there is an advantage to the new over the previous.

Thanks
