Hm.. i dont have those battery drain problems.. on my magic (32b) its not the fastest rom out there, but it´s working fine and i have like battery power.. PURE!

battery is so much longer ok than in super e...

i'm using the old 1.0 super f, not the one with the fixes (yet). will install it later.
[G1 Android Development] nate410:
After installing a new ROM, you need to calibrate your battery. Follow this procedure and see if it helps. Has for me every time.

- Let the phone die till it turns off

- Plug it in

- Boot into recovery

- Wipe battery stats

- Let batter charge for 8+ hours

Hope this helps!
[G1 Android Development] asb123:
This is the real instuctions:

Battery recalibration:

If you're experiencing higher than normal battery drain, try the following:

-Charge the phone to full battery;

let it keep charging until the battery says it is fully charged. Do not just wait until the light is green, it isn't always fully charged, causing a lot of inaccuracies. (You can check by going to: Settings -> About Phone -> Status -> Battery Level = Full.)

-Boot to recovery mode and go to console (or adb shell) and type:

mount -a

rm /data/system/batterystats.bin

NOTE: Newer Amon_Ra and ClockworkMod recoveries have an option to delete the battery stats, do this in place of the console commands above.

NOTE: To have the most accurate of battery stats, reboot the phone immediately after wiping the battery stats and wait for CM to boot completely to the desktop. Once your entire boot is done and you have full access to the phone, go ahead and pull the charger and continue with this troubleshooter.

-Do not charge the phone until after draining the battery completely, resulting in it automatically shutting off.

-Recharge the phone completely and then use as you normally would.

I know that. I have done it several times. It DOES NOT help. The issue is different - I have absolutely full battery when I go to bed and absolutely no battery when I wake up. I have had this issue with almost all FROYO roms and some eclair roms. I don't have it with donut roms and some eclair roms.

Possible reasons :

1. A program I'm installing is kinnling the phone - Yes, but I have tried with no software installed and the issue is there.

2. My G1 has a problem with certain kernels for some reason. Mabe a radio problem, maybe a hardware problem. I don't know much of these things.

3. The GaPPs don't allow the phone to sleep when there is no network (like I said, the problem happens when I turn airplane mode on)

P.S.

Battery usage in excessive battery drain condition usually points Android System or System Idle Process as the Battery HoG.
[G1 Android Development] nate410:
Try turning off "Background Data" when you're not using the phone. I do this and it improves the battery life considerably.
[G1 Android Development] Tom in AZ:
Ok, so I installed this ROM this past evening overwriting CM6.Thank you for a nice ROM. After a full wipe and installing the ROM and Tiny Gapps, everything seemed to work well on my phone for the first time in a long while. Before I ask any questions I'll use the search utility.
[G1 Android Development] darkshino:
Try disabling "Network location" as well. It improves the battery a bit too.
[G1 Android Development] Tom in AZ:
With the new release and it being posted that everything is fixed in the first post, does that mean that Apps2SD should now be working or am I just missing a setting? Maybe I have an older download of the ROM?
[G1 Android Development] StreetGuru:
Reflash the Radio (or flash new one, can't see what version you are using). And since you're at it, before you flash new radio, wipe your system. boot into recovery and go to the terminal/console:

mount -a

rm -rf /data/dalvik-cache

rm -rf /cache/dalvik-cache

rm -rf /sd-ext/dalvik-cache

sync

um

reboot recovery

again, go to the terminal/console and:

mount /system

/system/bin/erase_image userdata

/system/bin/erase_image boot

/system/bin/erase_image cache

/system/bin/erase_image system

then turn off the phone, boot into hboot and use fastboot to flash new radio.img:

fastboot flash radio radio.img

Reboot recovery and flash new ROM.

You are wrong, that may be the "official" way of doing it but you'll have a lot better results wiping your battery stats when battery is empty then when it's full.
[G1 Android Development] :
This ROM is horrible without being able to set compcache size and lock home app in memory. When that gets added it will defiantly be my daily driver, as all of ben's ROMs.
[G1 Android Development] reiga:
14 hours use = 2 hours surfing with 3g + other use

= 70% battery

only one widget on screens, very very fast.

nice ben!
[G1 Android Development] xi@o.f:
yes ben, pls add these and the ROM will be better, the battery is very nice!

Also I found the wifi doesn't work, it can't get address from route, can't get it fix?
[G1 Android Development] greyroar:
i like the old 1.0 superF battery power,but it can't use a2sd,could you do it?
[G1 Android Development] jdyates:
Question: What Kernel is this ROM using? I cant run any ROM without a CM Kernel due to touchsceen drivers.
[G1 Android Development] XBrav:
2.6.35.4-superF

root@bcds1 #1

Honestly, it'll take a 3rd party kernel, as the underside of this is CM 6.
[G1 Android Development] jdyates:
Cool, will try when i get my new MyTouch this week.
[G1 Android Development] bbuchacher:
Ill be adding memctrl settings into the framework and hopefully will have another update next weekend
[G1 Android Development] asolis:
Sweeeeeeeet :D
[G1 Android Development] Necrobutcher:
Have you done a battery calibration after flash?
[G1 Android Development] hpdroid:
without using any modification, my phone begin slower after 1 day operation.

any clue ?

thanks
[G1 Android Development] deepred86:
ben thanks for ur awesome work!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[G1 Android Development] reiga:
ja mach ich eigentlich immer, beim flashen.

btw.

29 hours use = 3 hours surfing with 3g + other use.

= 53% battery
[G1 Android Development] BrandoHD:
ben, we really need for u to compile a 32A version, all the 32A kernels i flash have the same problem, if u charge with USB, I have to reboot else the phone will not sleep, same might be true for bluetooth, i charge to 100% went to sleep at 2am, woke up at 8.30 with only 33% battery with absolutely no use and screen off 100% of the time, i will test again tonight after charging then rebooting to see the difference

i'm hoping if u compile a 32A version, we might not have such a bad problem
[G1 Android Development] chili434:
Please!!

Ben this would be much appreciated. I always prefer to flash a kernel from the ROM dev as well. Awesome rom and it runs great on my 32B device :)
[G1 Android Development] coolloser:
Love this rom, but I miss lock home in memory too and live wallpapers too.... :(

Alas you can't always get what you want.
[G1 Android Development] SEALBoy:
Is there a 614MHz kernel for this ROM?
[G1 Android Development] Adamsville MITM:
we also need a way to change clock color, date color, etc...
[G1 Android Development] Kaos Chase:
The rom itself is fast and pretty stable but still has typical froyo problems like in CM6. like market mesh, 3g outage and of course a huge turn off for me, no apps2sd. when these things are fixed I will enjoy SuperF but until then I am enjoying SuperE.

Hopefully the rumors are true about T-Mobile releasing 2.2 to the Mytouch, and devs can get working on some of those issues.

Ben you do an awesome job man, I can't wait for this to be more stable!!
[G1 Android Development] Tlowery88:
i flashed the danger spl and this rom last night and now my phone has froze and rebooted itself about 40 times in the last 9 hrs...anyone else having this problem or know a fix?
[G1 Android Development] Tlowery88:
strangly enough i took the sd card out and re flashed w clockworkmod and it worked flawless quick and fast and then i was able to back up this rom and flash cy6.0 out of rom manager just as a test so i think im good to go now.
[G1 Android Development] BrandoHD:
Back with the battery update, i charged with USB, rebooted the phone and from midnight to 7am, lost 2% charge, so u definitely need to reboot after u charge with usb

besides that, i have not had one single issue with this rom, and i mean zero issues.

no market issues, no FCs no nothing, battery life is good also
[G1 Android Development] solbg:
is there a way to reduce the number of screens ???
[G1 Android Development] traumatism:
menu, edit is what you need on the main screen.
[G1 Android Development] BrandoHD:
which "HOME" app are u using, if u r using the default, i do not know of any way to change the number of screens
[G1 Android Development] traumatism:
if hes using the adw home which comes with super f, then you press menu on the home screen then press edit as i stated before.
[G1 Android Development] BrandoHD:
I didn't know adw came with SuperF
[G1 Android Development] traumatism:
ah my bad. apologies. its launcher2 with superf. not sure if you can change the screens on that one.
[G1 Android Development] splttingatms:
I didn't get any alternative home with SuperF. There is no way to change the number of screens with the stock home launcher.
[G1 Android Development] BrandoHD:
@splttingatms, not that i know of, u could try the adw and keep playing with the setting till u have it working the way u like it, including the number of screens
[G1 Android Development] austinjjarboe:
I was able to successfully use a theme from FroyoRedux/ CyanogenMod..

added the theme files to framework-res.apk

signed then,

and pushed them back onto the phone within recovery.

Its quick, and might I add.. sexy. So far been running smooth no bugs.

heres what SuperF looks like with Galaxy S Theme Implementation..

Theme is Galaxy S Style

PS, i am using launcher pro that is themed, HTC IME Mod, as well with handcentsms
[G1 Android Development] bbuchacher:
Wont be able to get the update out till after this weekend, running outa time now and am going out of town / away from internet also tomorow. see ya guys in a few :)
[G1 Android Development] XBrav:
Thanks Ben!

As someone noted before, I think something is amiss with the sleep policies. Usually, my cell standby takes up about 43 percent of battery usage. I left WiFi on last night, and now it's saying the primary user was WiFi at 43 percent. The night before, that was Android System. Not sure why...

Let me know if you need a tester. Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] jseso:
nice rom...some of the settings like the cyanogenmod settings arent there...which those settings were pretty useful..and liked to see the messages app in black instead of white...BUT FAST AS LIGHTNING! :D
[G1 Android Development] mjb337:
can you send me a download link to my email address i really like this bro?
[G1 Android Development] xymic:
I love this ROM, but is it just me or does the default launcher have low scrolling speed? It seems much lower than LauncherPro. It's like you have to put more pressure..is there a way to change the scrolling speed besides using different launcher ?
[G1 Android Development] ctheory83:
Still having issues with not getting messages? Seems to be the case - keep getting people telling me they're texting but not getting a response.
[G1 Android Development] BrandoHD:
i dont think you have much options with the default launcher, what u see is what u get
[G1 Android Development] maverickcri:
Thank you Ben for your work, but I think Eclair is the "natural limit" of G1/32B.

In the beginning rom is fast as a spark but after is very very slow and heavy. For example I can't listen music and write or read a sms at the same time becouse music stops.

I will back to SuperE hoping for a specific kernel upgrade while flashing a generic version from droidbasement.com
[G1 Android Development] kordnas:
App2SD+ in SuperF 1.0

Hello,

I just wanted to make the switch from SuperE to SuperF, but I have a problem. When trying to follow step 9 from the "[ROM] E-Xtreme 2.1 v1.3 / F-Xtreme 2.2 v1.9.5 9th July 2010) Complete (BETA)" post, the App2SD option isn't there

When I went back to SuperE for a test the option was there. So it probably isn't the ext3 partition or anything...

Here are the steps that I went through:

1) Wipe everything in recovery

2) Repair SD ext

3) Upgrade SD ext2 to ext3

4) Reboot to recovery

5) Wipe everything again

6) Flash pershoots kernel

7) Flash SuperF ROM

8) Reboot device

9) Try to do the unknown sources and App2SD settings

App2SD settings not there... Any ideas on where the problem is and how to get it right?

Thanks a lot

Sandro

P.S. My phone, HTC Magic 32B Vodafone, SPL: 1.33.0007
[G1 Android Development] ForTehWolf:
O_O for some reason this is being painfully slow to be
[G1 Android Development] asb123:
I just want to say that the ROM is running nice and fast for me, and I am having NO PROBLEMS with missing messages.
[G1 Android Development] XBrav:
So, other than my power management issues, I've made this rom FLY!

Now, I must admit, I don't have a data plan, so most items I removed were due to this fact.

I did remove launcher2, and replace with Launcher Pro.

List of apps kept:

AccountAndSyncSettings.apk
ApplicationsProvider.apk
Bluetooth.apk
Browser.apk
Calculator.apk
Camera.apk
CertInstaller.apk
Contacts.apk
ContactsProvider.apk
DefaultContainerService.apk
Development.apk
DownloadProvider.apk
Gallery3D.apk
GoogleBackupTransport.apk
GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk
GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk
HtcSettings.apk
HTMLViewer.apk
kickback.apk
MarketUpdater.apk
MediaProvider.apk
MediaUploader.apk
Mms.apk
Music.apk
NetworkLocation.apk
OneTimeInitializer.apk
PackageInstaller.apk
Phone.apk
RomManager.apk
Settings.apk
SettingsProvider.apk
soundback.apk
SpareParts.apk
Stk.apk
Superuser.apk
talkback.apk
TelephonyProvider.apk
Term.apk
Vending.apk
YouTube.apk

I'm sure I can still strip more... but I will admit, it gets even perkier. But, as I said, many of the apks are associated with data options.

But pretty much, this ROM is really, really fast. I can play Angry Birds quite smoothly.
[G1 Android Development] Tom in AZ:
I am buzzing to buy some Rum for ya, but waiting for apps2sd first. I am afraid to get you drunk prior to it! LOL :)

I am running into some major battery battery issues, but I know that this is my original battery that came when I first got the G1 a year and a half ago. My guess is that it is giving up the ghost. I ordered a new battery that should be here very soon. Meantime I'll keep this phone on the charger when I can.
[G1 Android Development] bigmoew:
I've discovered when switching between roms, there is something wrong with how the system uses the battery until you just let it run out and then recharge it. Same thing happened to me, Super F draining by battery like crazy, and then after I let it die completely, then recharged it, the battery worked fine (in fact the best battery life I've ever had, can go almost two days with sync/gps on without recharging).

/rambling
[G1 Android Development] jdc:
I'm test driving this one now after the great experience with Super D (and a not so good one with Super E).

So far, aside from the lack of a 'move/install applications to SD' option, I have noticed that the auto rotate doesn't work with the home screen/stock launcher. Works with google maps and such.

Regarding memory usage and speed...

Froyo uses a memory manager setup that is fairly different from earlier versions of android. From my few days of test driving, froyo appears to be considerably more aggressive about killing apps/daemons/services/whatever-you-call-them in memory.

I run the lookout security program and with the stock memory reclamation settings, I watched it get killed off quite a bit (it was rarely killed under super d). Logcat confirmed it being killed off due to 'low memory', even though the system tray application I have showed over 10 megs free.

Enter in AutoKiller Memory Optimizer, written by one of our own XDA members, which lets you adjust how aggressive the system is in freeing up memory.

My own experimentation with this utility makes it seem that while the phone can be set to allow more memory to be used before killing something, the more memory that is allocated to programs makes the phone run slower.

My 'guess': If the 'memory used' settings are too low, the phone is forced to read from NAND, which is slower than RAM (think reading form disk vs reading from a disk cache).

Finding that balance may be a project unto itself. Something to chew on.
[G1 Android Development] Tom in AZ:
Bigmeow, I do thank you for that info, and have bumped into that in the past... This time it really was the battery. I will fully charge it and when it was unplugged within 10 mins I was down to 50%, after an hour it was dead. No matter how I tried to condition the battery or wipe the battery info on it there was no fixing it this time. My new battery came in today and it is holding a charge just fine. After 2 hours of being unplugged the battery still shows that it is full on the screen.

Later this week I will be receiving a new 8gb class 6 microSD card, that should also help a lot of the wait screens that I am getting (this happens no matter what ROM I use with my current class 2 card). This needs to last me until the holiday season when I can get a new phone.
[G1 Android Development] Adamsville MITM:
bump... cuz I can
[G1 Android Development] macpherson123:
can you please make a flashable theme for SuperF???

is a flashable theme possible? is not could you please give me a link to the theme....
[G1 Android Development] deepred86:
Just an info, how faster does your device run? I mean i'm with a 16gb microsd card class 2 and 64mb swap, and an average free ram of 18/25mb is it the same for you too? I think i'm gonna switch on a class 4 card ... will it increase speed ?
[G1 Android Development] batp:
This is a beautiful rom, I usually delete most of the extra apps and on fresh install have over 40mb of unused ram...

After loading up on email, skype, call block, etc it drops to around 25. On Cyanogen I was lucky to have 10. These figures are coming from running Syspanel (10mb foreground service) so add an extra 10 on top of them.

Trying a different ADW config right now, hopefully it works right

Thanks a lot, perfect for a G1
[G1 Android Development] mindstormmaster1:
I hope this rom gets a 1.1 update soon with cyanogen parts soon and all the problems fixed that people are talking about. I went from Biff Mod 2.0 to Chomatic 3.9.1.1 to Super E and would like to jump back to Froyo, but this rom just looks to beta to be a daily driver. :/
[G1 Android Development] jdc:
Which 'extra apps' did you delete?

This is a great froyo rom for the G1, and collecting tuning and app add/removal info can just make it better.
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Just an fyi um don't get so caught up on the class of the sd card and think that your phone will be skier because of it. Had a class one sdcard in my dream and it was the same speed as a class 6. If not faster.
[G1 Android Development] hamhead:
Quick question guys.

i am running SuperFroyo 2.6, android 2.2 on a Rogers G1 radio 3.22.26.17, 32b.

after flashing this Super F rom do i need to flash the ebi1 file that was needed after i flashed SuperFroyo??

i am unsure about this ebi1 file thing, someone in Q&A told me its for CM nightly releases only.
[G1 Android Development] BrandoHD:
once you are using a 32A device, you always have to flash the EBI1 zip after you flash a 32B rom, you could try the one you ave and see if it works, i usually use the bcrook's port which has the anykernel from koush, basically that means you can flash it to any 32B rom and it will boot, bare in mind its a Cyanogen kernel
[G1 Android Development] hamhead:
nvm guys i flashed the Biffmod rom and noticed it flashed Pershoots rom right after automatically. well that did not boot at all, stuck at ROGERS screen. so i flashed BC ebi1 6.0.0 and now it works
[G1 Android Development] jdyates:
Best battery life ive ever had on my myTouch. Nuff' said. Speed is amazing too! Any other (higher) OC kernels for this ROM? I noticed it said "SuperF" and not "cyanogen" so i wasnt about to flash my favorite 672MHz from the kernel corner.

5* ROM you have here :)

Sent from my FroYo addicted myTouch 1.2
[G1 Android Development] LCAHMED:
Hello everyone,

Im new to the g1 scene, and i need some help on the super F rom part. Ive already flashed radio, already flashed spl. Now when i try to flash through recovery mode the Super F zip which i moved to my root of sd and renamed as "update" the installation goes about half way then says "E: cannot find update script" or something along those lines. Please help anyone
[G1 Android Development] kruz7:
You should have Amon RA recovery, in it you can choose zip file from the sd card to flash. So you don't need to rename the zip file. If you don't have Amon RA recovery, flash it and start it by pressing home button. Good place to look at is cyanogenmod wiki, you can go through the guide for CM6 and finally flash SuperF + google apps instead of CM6.

Anyway, I prefer SuperE for my G1, SuperF needs some features like keep launcher in memory and apps2sd (apps2sd it solvable by other way, but with SuperE it's much easier).

What I can recommend is to make swap partition on the sd card and enable swap by Stevo's scripts ( forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/208-swap-enabledisable/ ) .. but I don't recommend to use stock g1 sd card for it, yesterday I bought cheap class 6 sd card and it's much faster when loading some app from swap.
[G1 Android Development] deepred86:
I can see sometimes some strange background apps like Amazon MP3, 2 Maps Processes, Messages process cannot be killed like in every other 2.1 or below roms, and it drains my ram :( I usually find around 10/15mb free with my task manager, once I kill everything it runs faster and gains ram arriving to 23/30 which is quite enough for me. Can you suggest me some software to remove those Amazon ****z a/o some useless stuff? Thanks in advance bro
[G1 Android Development] jdc:
Titanium backup can do this, even in the free version. It's 'standard issue' for anyone I know who has a new android device.
[G1 Android Development] godsp33d:
thank you man, seriously- I used your Super D ROM forever.. and I finally decided to mess around with other roms.. and of course every other ROM out their is unstable as hell. Thank you :) i went through 6 ROMS today and yours is def. the best. I was so happy when I noticed Super F was made by you.
[G1 Android Development] hamhead:
ahhhhh why is there no "lock home in memory" for this rom?!!! it speeds up everything so much!! i like everything about this rom, except that one thing. still gotta wait for home to load..
[G1 Android Development] deepred86:
gone back to SuperE ... maybe it's just my fault but .. no free ram even swapping things, Maps loaded twice in background w/o any sense :| waiting for updates
[G1 Android Development] JazzyStahh:
I am on a G1 with the super F rom. Idont like the fact tha there is no apps2sd but is there any way to fix that? As this one of the fastest roms I have used!
[G1 Android Development] breezy169:
onee of the bestt froyo roms out for g1 . has speed and battery life is better the average .

but i think the only thinqs missing is the "lock home in memory" cuz it seems to always reload the home screen nd whenever i send an mms the other person wont qet it, if that can be fixed this would be the perfect froyo rom
[G1 Android Development] kordnas:
App2SD+

Hey guys,

From those messages I take it, that there is not App2SD+ in Super F, yet, and it's not my fault, that it isn't showing?

What is the deal about it? Will it come?

After having started using this ROM and following Shadowch's guide for setting it up and maintaining it in a functional state I am slowly starting to gain back my confidence in Android. There were times, where it simply sucked due to performance issues

Thanks for that! :-)

Sandro
[G1 Android Development] jamal717:
I was using this rom for a while i wasnt to concerned with apps 2 sd tho considering i barely install apps but this roms pretty quick i would rather get the official 2.2 roms from the mytouch
