Update SparksMod-1.3 Remix

New packages are in the downloads folder. Full wipe (believe me worth it). I'm using new update and flashing methods with these that work very well. Flash rom and then SparksMod Add-On's. Have fun, I sure did making this. I will update new screen shots asap.

Edit: Also future no wipe updates will also use these methods
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
ok, u lost me. lol. what dixon was askin was how he was gonna put his files he has on his sd onto his new one, so i was tellin him to drag them into a folder on the computer then when he flashes his new rom and partitions his new card. plug the phone into the comp a throw all those files from the folder onto the sd. :D so what are u talkin about, nandroid? files?

btw sparks. cant wait to check it out! i might have to buy u another beer when i get home!woot. ha also, we CAN flash the addons ontop of the rom right?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
This new update should have no sdcard mounting issues at all
[G1 Android Development] crisvillani:
downloading now !

sounds great, :D:D
[G1 Android Development] stlouie65:
Thanks for the update Sparks, installing now
[G1 Android Development] crisvillani:
where can i find CMTHEME file?
[G1 Android Development] biglo:
Will give this rom a go right now to see what I've been missing.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Will flash right now, and tell you what I think ASAP

EDIT:

Works perfectly, faster than before reboot is instant, i like the font haha

I'm amazed by what you've done with this rom, it's faster than ever!!!!!!
[G1 Android Development] crisvillani:
Love the new theme man great job!!!!

just noticed finally shows h icon in status bar nice!
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
My bad bro, I forgot to upload it, it's up now
[G1 Android Development] crisvillani:
got it thanks!
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
I agree, this rom is really a beacon of light for the g1/mytouch's. I have yet to see if someone can make one faster.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Just out of curiosity, are you going to change your sig. soon lol? I notice it still says biffmod. So I take it you are using the 32a port on this rom?
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
I don't think anyone has made a froyo this fast!

I absolutely love it, if you make this even faster I'll just be shocked!

EDIT:

@sparksco: do I need to put the swapiness still at 60?
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
First boot animation I made from scratch!!!

Check it out!! This is your surprise Sparks!!! A little late, cause it looks like you already released 1.3. Now I just have to find how to implement this boot animation into the rom.
[G1 Android Development] crisvillani:
Ya got to change it lol , and yes Im using ezterry 's 32A port.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
I'm using Compcache @ 26% because swap didn't run very well for me. I Even tried 40 swappiness and that didn't help any, if anything it made it worse.

Edit: Once I'm getting ready to upload the new screen shots now, and it shows all of my settings, so check op in a few
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
It's cool bro, I can just make a flashable for it ;)
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Oh okay, that's awesome we'll I absolutely love this rom
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Me too! It really makes me happy that I decided to wait a extra week to get the g2 so that way I can keep my g1!

Edit: Go to a radio shack near by and pick up a g2 with a new 2 year contract for $150. Tmobile store is $250 with 2 year contract w/$50 mail-in rebate. Also make sure you get the premium handset protection so that way your phone is covered.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
I want the g2, but then again you can't use this rom on it haha
[G1 Android Development] ctgttp46:
a have a problem, i can't install a apk file from my SD card? why?

(rom 1.2 full i install very good), i flash a new rom and i'm not upgrade.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
You flashed the rom and Sparksmod Add-On's right after?
[G1 Android Development] stevetha1:
:D truly the best rom ive used boots fast XD
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
Just flashed 1.3!! Stoked!
[G1 Android Development] ctgttp46:
yes, i flashed Add-On's right after flash 1.3remix rom:confused:
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
what do you think bro?? what do you think??? lol
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
siick. boom.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Did you check the unknown thing in applications?

That might be another reason
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1.3 LOOKS SEXY and FAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[G1 Android Development] ctgttp46:
tks, I think i found my problem:D .

If i go to CyanogenMod Settings / Application setting / enable:Allow app moving & Install Local : External => apk file will not intalled.

But, I want all application will be installed to memory card:confused:, help me!
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
"i go to CyanogenMod Settings / Application setting / enable:Allow app moving & Install Local : External => apk file will not intalled"

You just answered your own question, don't mess with the Application moving, ext external is automatic after flashing.
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
Yeah its my first and it doesn't have much going for it, but it was a good practice run. Glad you like it though! I should have a sweet looking one coming soon :)
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
woahhh homeskillit where have you been?? lol. we dont have a true legit apps2sd like we did with eclair and past that. you need to set ur settings on automatic, it'll save the majority of the app on the sd but some of it still gets saved on ur phone, you shouldnt have any issues with space tho, and if you. then try the fr custom mtd i have on my on my sig. im not usin it tho. or check the goodies in the op. and follow sparks instructions. btw. you are a badass chef sparks! im tellin u. u need to hop on cy's gravy train! lol
[G1 Android Development] ctgttp46:
thank u, i will check again :)
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
lol, yeah I was thinking of helping them test roms for the g2, he even says on his forum that anyone with a new device can volunteer.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
I was just wondering, would the rom run better with swype?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Yes swype works well on mine :D

Edit: I'm not sure if swype is warez or not, I'm still trying to figure out
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Get your internal storage back!

Ok so I have a way around lossing your internal storage after restoring your apps with titanium backup. First restore all of your apps and reboot phone. Go to terminal emulator and type:

[CODE]$ su
# sh /system/etc/fr-patch141-BETA.txt a2sd

Then select yes for move /data/data to ext

# y

wait for the #, it does take time.

Select no move froyo fat32 apps to ext

# n
# reboot

Then do this:

$ su
# df

Now your phone should run like a champ[/CODE]
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
Typing with swype to also confirm that swype works well :)
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Could you give me the swype.apk file that you use? I'm using a 32b mytouch
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Here is the apk, I just updated my screen shots, and one of theme shows how this swype is themed

http://www.mediafire.com/?wyoycs1o315dsj2
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Thanks, works perfectly!!!!!!!!!!!
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
i doubt it, it's not a paid app. although the beta crap is closed, it was offered as a freebie. :D

that'd be badass, but just dont get to caught up in too many things at once!
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
I grabbed this pic from the op. Why is almost all of your "swap partition" be used up? Was this screen shot after you ran firerat's beta script?

Stuck at T-Mo G1 Logo

I already follow the ops and it happens.

What have i done wrong?

Please see my logcat image capture cos i dont know how to save my logcat. I came from Sparksmod 1.2.3

Thanks in advance
[G1 Android Development] pudgedaddy:
I'm also getting this on v1.3rom as well. Are you also flashing the psfreedom enablerv3.zip file?

Edit: nevermind. I ran the psfreedom disabler and still got wifi-error.
[G1 Android Development] pudgedaddy:
Hey sparksco. Is there anyway you can add the equalizer app that cyanogen has on his nightlies?
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
right on, handle it!! ha.
[G1 Android Development] LOONEyRR:
if im notmistaken, its in te market. ur talkin about the dsp manager right?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
No its not from firerat's patch, its my compcache
[G1 Android Development] pudgedaddy:
Not sure if its in market. Doesn't matter anyway now. I pulled the DSP manager apk out of cyanogen's nightly.
[G1 Android Development] pudgedaddy:
So what's the deal with wi-fi? I've seen a couple of others saying that had this issue. Is this a sporadic problem or is everyone affected by this? Is the wlan.ko the same from cyanogen's nightlies or is it different?
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
Everything is working for me just fine! Thanks Sparks for another great rom! So far zero fc's and no random reboot. Looking at trying swap as well, just to see how comcache matches up with swap.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Who knows, no all the lib have not been modified.
[G1 Android Development] :
Any chance for the lazy arses like me you could upload it please?

Much prefer to download that than the whole nightly :D
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Here you go buddy, I don't think it's from the latest nightly but it works.

http://www.mediafire.com/?1vh6itlcpdxdj
[G1 Android Development] :
You are a gent, thank you :D
[G1 Android Development] pudgedaddy:
Beat me to it.
[G1 Android Development] stevetha1:
have u tried how is it ? ? ?
[G1 Android Development] joeyhza:
Can someone please please help me - can i unload Launcherpro and install ADW? How can i do it coz launcherpro seems totally embedded. Reason i ask is coz afterward i want to load another version of Launcherpro!

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
UPDATE!

Swap 32mb and swappiness 40 is the sweet spot!!!! Disable compcache before setting up swap.
[G1 Android Development] jfbuck:
Would also like to know the answer to this question. Been trying to uninstalling it for about 30 minutes to no avail..
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Easy, download the adw launcher from the goodies folder on the OP. Flash it in recovery and reboot. Boom, launcherpro will be gone. Also download the adw settings file and place on sdcard, then restore adw settings. The file you want starts with adw-rm's
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
is it better than at 60?

EDIT: Tried it at 40, and it lagged so much it's not even funny

60 is best for me
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Hey mj,

Using minfree or anything else? What kind of settings u got going? Got any feedback?
[G1 Android Development] jfbuck:
Thanks for the help, I acutely figured that out a little bit ago, but a new problem has arisen; Ive installed a different home replacement on top of the above stated method, With success, set it to default. but now every time I got to reboot and everything loads back up, it load the ADW launcher, and when I press home it gives me to option to load the other Launcher. When I select that launcher, its all blank, like I have to add all my widgets and everything over again. This can become quite a tedious problem. 0.o any advice?
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
For me I use auto memory manager agressive, advanced task killer on crazy killing and also setcpu at 537max/245min
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
Not using minfree as of now. For settings, there is a video I made for you all to check out, which I will post soon :)

As far as swap size 32 and 40 swappiness has been treating me very well.
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
Video for 1.3!!

Here it is everyone! Right now it still has not been fully processed, so it might be a little pixelated...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJAXNRT9iYc
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Nice video, I actually saw it right now haha

Do you know how to change the boot animation?

I wanna put the mario boot animation just cause I like mario haha
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Thanks for all the feedback. Video says not available on my phone. Ill check it out when I get home. Can't wait to try it out.
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
If you find a pre-made mario boot animation, then you can flash to your phone. But I have not seen a mario boot animation.

Once you find a boot animation and you put it on the root of the sdcard, these are the commands you use in terminal emulator.

su

cp /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /data/local/

reboot
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
oh awesome thanks, i found one, but the size is too small and it's in the wrong way haha

i'll fix it so it'll work for mytouch or g1[not sure what the resolution is] i'm going with 320x480
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
Yes you would have to change everything. First cause its not the same size, screen wise, second your fps would have to be lower cause our processor in our G1 is not as powerful as the Droid. So it would be better if you made your own or I can try to make one. But right now I'm in the learning process to make bigger and better boot animations.
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
This is practice run 2.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Flashing update!

I found a problem with wiping with the flashable zip file, which is the reason that I removed it from the downloads The problem is that the rom wipes the system partition before installing the update already, which means that you only need to do a factory data/cache wipe. Still need to wipe everthing else like ext and dalvik-cache. I will update on the OP

Edit: Basicly just flash like in the olden days when we had Eclair :)
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Looks really nice, I can't wait to see the finished product. :D
[G1 Android Development] dixon93:
Hi... i tried to run swap at 60, 32mb.. and it's lag like.... indescribably.

i had to spent 10 minutes just to get to terminal to disable swap and use back compcache at 28.. then it works well...

anyone know what's the real problem?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
The problem is that these roms are being made to support Compcache and not swap ;)
[G1 Android Development] kwrose14:
1.3 startup issue

I dont know how or why I have this issue, but I have tried just about everything possible to fix it and I am stummped.

My phone starts after flashing the 1.3 along with the add ons to the Welcome to HTC Dream SparksMod. I am able to click on the Icon and hear it click, however the screen doesnt change for me to enter my account information.

Any suggestions on why this is happening and how to resolve it ?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Check the OP for new flashing update. If you used the wipable zip file that I just removed from the downloads, then just wipe like the old days when we had donut and eclair.
[G1 Android Development] kwrose14:
I have been performing it that way and it is not making any difference.

It is even happening after restoring a nandroid!!
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
Just for your sake.

I see that a few of you are having some lag problems. So I went ahead and started fresh with the "new" way of flashing, meaning not using the wipeable.zip. I want to see if I have the same problems. So here it goes.

I just wipe all doing it the old school way (not using the wipeable.zip)....Now the bootanimation is going..........waiting for the "red x" to dissappear that is laying on top of the signal bars, before I tap on Andy. Ok now Im signing in. Signed in. Uncheck everything that is check, and finish setup.

Now I am up and running! So far no problems. Going to set up all my settings and I will report how it goes.

But like I said, so far no problems!
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
No problems for me to report either, but I will report back after I am finished setting everything up and testing compcache vs swap.
[G1 Android Development] kboater:
when i flashed the Rom it had a small swap set up automatically...confirmed by typing free in terminal. how do i disable this swap partition that was automatically enabled when flashing?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Compcahe is on by default, not swap, but it shows up in terminal as swap. Compcache uses a differnt type of swap basicly. Disable Compcache and reboot, then go back to terminal and it should saw 0 for swap.

Edit: I meant to say disable Compcache, not swap
[G1 Android Development] dixon93:
ya.. just disable swap by using terminal app.. after i rebooted in my setcpu the swap still shown

SwapTotal : 25656 kB

SwapFree : 2036kB..

it shown 0 before i enable swap but now i disabled it (enable compcache) still shows a value... kinda weird..
[G1 Android Development] nickislauw:
is this rom good with multitask? or does it IMMEDIATLY kil your app when your going to another?
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Guess what! I'm getting ready to upload 1.3-Remix Stable! Thanks to everyone for testing. This new rom will still be using apps2ext, but in a differnt and much better way. Just wipe like normal in recovery, then flash rom and sparksmod add-on's.

I'm using swap and Compcache. My linpack is 3.6 with all of my apps and widgets! Left compcache at default and just went to set up my swap partition at 32mb with 40 swappiness. Now it runs like a donut rom!
[G1 Android Development] mjybarr:
Dang Sparks I'm still testing haha.
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
For the sake of calling it 1.3 Stable I am going to test a little longer just in case I have to change to 1.3 Test2 haha.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
I can't wait for the 1.3 stable, I bet it'll be even better than test1
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Man. I'm still playing with test as well. Running real good so far. Awesome.
[G1 Android Development] johnson8cyl:
Does good for me. No problems at all
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Oh it is better, I just finished up checking my scripts and making sure that apps2ext is still working. Everything looks good. Just to warn you, this version does use a different and much more stable method of apps2ext. Your internal storage will not report as much space, but the performance of the phone will be exceptional.

Edit: Also you must enable allow moving of applications, and set install location to internal with the new version.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Anything you make dude, I'm sure it'll be godly

Biffmod made there 2.1, I'm trying it right now for the comparison to yours; it's pretty fast too

BUT I'm sure the 1.3 stable will beat it
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Stable is ready for download :cool:
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
I'm already downloading as we speak; as well as filming the video
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Update on 1.3 Stable

When you first boot you must select "Allow Moving of Applications" before you restore your apps! Once your all done with that, follow the OP on how to move data to ext to gain some of your internal storage back.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Alright for sure, just got done with Biffmod's part; doing yours right now

IF anything I'll finish editing a little and then upload before it hits 9pm, california time
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
I'll be up, that's only 10pm here.
[G1 Android Development] dixon93:
well.. i'm trying the latest 1.3 stable right now..

maybe i will make a vid if i free...

so i just backup my appz, wipe as usual then flash?

after that do i need to apply swap after 1st boot?

by the way thanks for putting my youtube link at the first post..
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Alright, we'll I just flashed yours now, I'll just change a few settings and start on it ASAP
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
I think swap will work better, Compcache worked ok for a little while and then started acting up a little. This rom is completly different from test1. Just do a data/factory wipe, then wipe ext and dalvik-cache. Then flash away.

Edit: Once you restore all of your apps, you might start to run a little low on internal storage. If you do follow the OP on how to get some of it back. It will still read low storage but it's basically lying to you. I installed 65 apps and my widgets load fine too. After I moved data to ext it says I have 31mb left. But the way my phone runs it's like I have way more than that.
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Haha I'm already making the video; just wait for mine
[G1 Android Development] dixon93:
looking forward to it too..

so.. i guess i need to disable compcache and use swap then..

well 32mb and 60 or 40 for swap? i just need to make sure before flashing..
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Just did everything, and all I got to say OMGGGGGGGGGGGGG

This is just godly, You've made me amazed yet again, so fast!
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
32mb 60 swapiness, works like a charm

I'm still not sure which I like better compache or swap; both are great

@sparksco: no need for me to go back to biffmod haha; yours is too good
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Well that's Just the start. I'm going to be uploading some new kernel updates throughout this week and next, as well as themes for 1.3. All of these updates will be using the new flashing method, not the old one. SparksMod is going to be easy to update without wiping from now on.
[G1 Android Development] dixon93:
hi sparksco.. seems your latest rom was fast..

just one question.. where's the titanium backup? haha maybe you missed it.. but it's ok as i had to download it myself
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
OMG I can't wait; I want those new kernels now haha
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
Titanium backup worked just fine for me, but maybe it failed to install on your device. But you have everything else like DSP Manager and all that?
[G1 Android Development] dixon93:
well i guess not...

it came with very little of applications. i only remember it came with youtube.lol

but i guess it wont effected anyway.. any more application that came with it? i might have a check..
[G1 Android Development] sparksco:
It probably didn't mount your sd-ext when flashing, did you wipe ext partition? It doesn't come with maps, but it comes with file manager, cmstats, ext, just like test1
[G1 Android Development] dixon93:
haha i guess all i did not have.. it's ok since i dont really use those.

by the way i followed all your steps, enable moving app to internal, restore apps, reboot, run the script a2sd then reboot.

now my internal left 40mb..

so next time i need to install application it will auto to my ext-sd?

do i need to change any setting in CM setting before installing anything?
[G1 Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
Videos will be up tomorrow, For some reason I can't remember how to combine the videos into one and make them side by side :D haha. Fail on my part
