The only way I know of to stop the battery drain is to plug it into an AC charger after using USB to charge.
[G1 Android Development] roalex:
Depends on your needs, for me works quite well, for browsing, email/messenger. For downloads you can put up 3g or use some Wifi. In the end you have to choose if you want to be mobile or be hooked to a generator -: )
[G1 Android Development] shakennotstirred:
mine was charged off the ac, as i knew about the usb problem
[G1 Android Development] will4958:
This may sound like a noobish question, but is there any particular order the updated SPL and radio should be flashed in as when we flashed the Danger SPL and required radio? Also, is there a way to do this from the phone itself? It's been a while since I updated to the Danger SPL on my G1, and I run Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat on my laptop.
[G1 Android Development] runderekrun:
Ah sorry for assuming.

Maybe calibrate the battery? Is there one program that is way ahead in percentage in Settings>About Phone>Battery use?
[G1 Android Development] iucidium:
Hey ezterry. Test 3 is great sir!!

The Droid X keyboard is great too. My wife is tempted once more to root. Thank you and others on this thread for help!
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
Even with an ad free version, it still lags for me... Also running this rom along with the rest in my sig.

Everyone has their own definition of "running beautifully" but I have a feeling that most people who think that about their G1's just have not experienced the game on a capable device.

Oh and in case you have not played it on a capable device look on youtube at Angry Birds videos on people's Iphones for example...
[G1 Android Development] Phateless:
That's bizarre, test2 worked flawlessly for me, haven't tried test3 yet.

Are you running a g1 or mt3g? Are you using the correct spl and radio?

ezterry - is the market fix still required with test3 or only with test2?

Not sure how to help with this, it booted right up with no issues for me.
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
Market fix is not needed when flashing Test 3...

On a side note.... my battery life is pretty good right now with this rom and kernel 2.6.34.7-cm6-biffmod #7 (not sure if this is the default kernel in test 3 or not....I can't remember if i flashed a new one).
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
So far there have been 3 actual ota updates for froyo on the mt3g:

* Original was 2 parts one just the new hboot, the other the rom I used in test1/2 (these had an ebi0 kernel by default)

* Next was a small update I re-packages as the market fix (thus test2+market fix)

* The most recent is test3 all prior ota updates included. (This has the 2708+ kernel by default)

Its both the original kernel for the new radio+spl I released and the version in test3
[G1 Android Development] Phateless:
That's what I figured. Why on earth would that guy be having problems? Corrupted zip/bad download? I don't know where else to look.
[G1 Android Development] HTCMDA:
so you 3rd party installed it?

how did it allow you? i always get a popup saying not enough space. my phone itself has 40+mb of free space. and i have apps on my sd

how much space does angry birds need to open up? its only a 14mb (give or take) file.
[G1 Android Development] Killadude:
for some reason im getting boot loops on the test3 version, yes i am on the new spl/radio?!

tried installing the kernel as well, but since its already included it dosent make a difference.... What do i do?

I checked the md5 code and they all match up =(

EDIT: image added of logcat where it fails.
[G1 Android Development] lil-devil:
not sure if i did something wrong or anything but after installing the test3, i'm having problems with finding a GPS signal and sometimes my phone would just crash and restart.

also there are problems with a few apps where it doesn't run properly for me, for example doodle jump.

i did a full wipe then flashed test3
[G1 Android Development] :
I've played it on an iphone4, I know the difference.

I also understand the limitations of our devices and the fact still remains that on this rom for ME Angry Birds has run better than on any other rom.

Call bs, waffle some more about 'not understanding' or 'knowing' what I am I'm on about because I apparently haven't played it to its true capacity. I don't even give a rat's arse that it runs like crap on YOUR phone, all I can tell you is how it is on mine.

It really is that simple :D
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
glad you cleared that up and explained yourself. So its not running beautifully...its just running the best it ever has on your phone...which means nothing.
[G1 Android Development] wariat:
Lang pack Lang pack Lang pack Lang pack!!!!! :D please.. if someone tell me what i do for create a new lang pack i'll do it!!

PS. Thx ezterry for your work!!
[G1 Android Development] vermaekansh:
hey terry just a small ques...

recently pershoot released a kernel merged with your stuff can i use that kernel with test 3. currently m having your kernel from the OP for G1 users(user without the latest 2708/13d radio/spl)
[G1 Android Development] zosX:
Ok...here is what this rom desperately needs.....the dsp manager from cyanogen 6. I tried to install the apk, but it seems to have no working effect, so I'm asking what could possibly be missing that allows it to work. Also can I just take the browser and mms apks from cm and drop them in system/app in recovery? I have no idea if that will break anything. This rom is so close to being the ultimate g1 rom (it really already is imho just for the free ram alone) I think all it needs are some very minor tweaks.
[G1 Android Development] hddavid:
Thanks a lot.
[G1 Android Development] jane.h:
I have to say thanks to authors!!!

really, i love this rom!!!!

I have only one problem with it, maybe someone solved this problem before, I have to look, but it is to hard to find it on the 101 pages :-)))

Anyway my problem is with the LED, is there any chance to configure LED blinking manually?

I use Handcent SMS (I also tried to use Chomp SMS), but these "other parts" programs cannot use the LED, does anyone know how to solve it? cyanogen has own configuration, but I cannot find it here...
[G1 Android Development] stevendeb25:
Problem is on my g1 is that angry birds installs and does load, but screen isn't right, its not distorted just see credits at top of the screen but thats it, how to fix this anyone? Thanks
[G1 Android Development] Paul Shirley:
In a terminal or with adb:

su
chmod 666 /dev/msm_hw3d*

You'll have to reapply after every boot, hopefully test4 will fix init.rc ;)
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
no test4 for that.

your fix will be test3-parts2.. when I find myself some time to create and test.

it's planned to be no wipe flash over the current parts or flash instead of the current parts.
[G1 Android Development] bemymonkey:
Is anyone else having problems with the mobile data connection not coming on after you move out of WiFi range? My Dream just sat there for hours without a data connection until I turned "2G only" on and then off again...

Had this on my Desire with certain Cyanogenmod versions too, but never thought I'd see it on a more or less official build...?

-edit- I'm guessing this is because of the Cyanogenmod kernel (IIRC there's one in this build...)? Does one of the drop-in replacements not have this bug?
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
No problems here with that....using the default EZterry biffmod #7 kernel that comes in Test 3.

Maybe for you, but for a lot of people including myself, that is one of the first things removed from a nightly install.

I think a lot of people want the Phone and MMS from CM6.1 RC because they have a lot more features and settings that the ones in this OTA rom do not have. Of course, you lose speed when you swap out those two for more features.
[G1 Android Development] bemymonkey:
Was the kernel different on Test2 (I'm still on that, but upgrading now probably)...
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
Have a look....Menu / Settings / About Phone then scroll down to Kernel Version.
[G1 Android Development] bemymonkey:
Now there's an idea. Too late though, just flashed Test3 along with the new radio + SPL... let's see how it does...
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
You won't be disappointed. :D
[G1 Android Development] jamal717:
:) do u guys turn compache and stuff on? in froyo parts or do u do any of the options in there? like home in ram compache apps to sd data to sd dex to sd??
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
* if you don't need it avoid the 2sd functions. (I find dex2sd on and apps/data off is still snappy.. but if you have apps/data on try to keep dex off)

* home in ram works well.. better than the intertnal version of LauncherPro in my opinion. All that setting this does is make the oom killer give launcher a higher priority and thus its less likely to be killed and need to reload returning home.

* compcache may help if you need a bit more ram but the rom works well without it as well. See what works best for you.
[G1 Android Development] jamal717:
ard man thanks
[G1 Android Development] wuziq:
went from the official OTA to biffmod to cm6.1, finally back to this. clean, fast, no frills, super usable.

thanks for keeping the extra features as separate updates.

nice work on the froyo parts.

ezterry 2 gud.
[G1 Android Development] coolloser:
@ezterry

I have a request....In the next parts, could we have a "keep messaging app in memory"?
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
SInce I want to push out these few bug fixes sooner than later.. probably not the next..

Um do you know how that feature was implemented? If its scripted we can see if it can be added.. but it must be light weight.

Currently parts is what you see (a menu that is only in ram if you run the apk)

And a init.d script ran on startup before you even see the "Android" boot screen. that initializes the environment. (ie. set some OOM variable to tell it Launchers priority, initialize compcache and make the bind mounts to the SD card)

At run time parts is inactive.. hopefully meaning that if you leave everything unchecked the phone will behave the same as if you didn't have the parts ('cept maybe allowing you access to busybox at the command line, and adb remount)

(Just a requirement to add it to parts may still help you install it if its not extremely hard to do)
[G1 Android Development] vermaekansh:
Can anyone answer me the above quest...please
[G1 Android Development] haunter1982:
with the multitouch-keyboard installed the hardware-keyboard doesn't work as before. If you want to make a special-charakter you have to press the alt key as always. But on standard keyboard the next char would be normal. with the multitouch-keyboard installed you have to press the alt key again to disable the "special"layout. Is there a workaround or can the multitouch-keyboard be uninstalled?

I've tried to copy the ime apks that are deleted by the multitouch.zip back in /system/apps and delete the lib and apk file for multitouch but then i get a repeating force close for ime...

Any chance to go back without flashing the whole rom again? Or a workaround for the multitouch problem?

Sorry for my bad english....
[G1 Android Development] coolloser:
I have no idea how it was implemented...here's hoping it is scripted! *crosses fingers*

This feature is really the main thing that I miss from CM.
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
If you read the change log on pershoots site then you will answer your own question.

Hint: The answer is no.
[G1 Android Development] punshkin:
i have the test2 and love it.

only issue: when connecting to my mac/windows it charges but doesnt show the usb debugging notification neither does it show the enable usb storage notification. adb also doesnt work. the mac/win also dont make the new hardware pluged in sounds...

do i have to fix a setting or is there a known fix?
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
Start by wiping, upgradeing to test3 (remember you will need the new spl+radio *OR* the ebi0 version of the radio)

If you sill have the issue download terminal or connection bot from market and run log cat in it.. see if it notices the USB change.

I've not had this problem on any of the releases of this rom. So you may also wish to check your USB cable isn't the problem and that it works in recovery as well.
[G1 Android Development] Mxtrmeg:
Hey guys I am brand new to the whole rooting and moding of the phones thing. I recently rooted and installed CaNNoN202-CompleteEclair-v221. I have the G1 btw.

While this ROM was great after a while it would just get to laggy somtimes. And now today I saw this and tried to install it.

I booted my phone by holding Home and the Power button and got into recovery mode. I then went into the console and typed:

'fastboot erase system -w'

Which did not work it kept saying cannot find fast boot.

So I just went to "wipe" in the recover menu and did the factory/data reset.

I then went on to flash the MT3G-test3_S.zip on the Flash from SD card part in the menu and it installed fine and I enabled amazon Mp3 and the 3g thing. Installation was complete and I hit reboot. Only to be stuck at the G1 screen forever with no change.

Booted back into recovery mode and I currently do not know how to proceed.

One additional thing I did try was installing ezBiffTestKernel20101031-ebi1_S.zip which succeeded.

But still it would not get past the G1 screen. I then tried to reinstall the MT3G-test3_S.zip but it got stuck half way through for like 20 mins so I pulled out the battery and boot back into recovery mode where I currently am.

Help me out please. I will provide any other information you might need.
[G1 Android Development] jadephyre:
Due to the two major threads out there for the OTA, i'm now utterly confused as to how i'm supposed to upgrade and get the new radio on my device.

Can't someone here provide a simple and straight-forward guide as to how ?
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
This thread's original post....theres a lot to read but it has the steps you need to take.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=831139
[G1 Android Development] bemymonkey:
I just did it yesterday, so the memory's pretty fresh in my head, but it's also Friday night and I'm drunk. I'll give it a try though ;)

The easiest way is if you're prepared to wipe and start over:

1. Install the new SPL/Radio/Recovery from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=831139, follow instructions including wipes

2. Install MT3G (first post of this thread) Test3 and any add-ons you need (I'd recommend Froyo-Parts)

3. Done.

If you're on Test2 + Marketfix + Parts1 and want to upgrade, you'll need to:

1. NAND/BART backup

2. Install SPL/Radio/Recovery from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=831139, follow instructions including wipes

3. Restore NAND/BART backup

4. Flash Test3 over the top

5. Flash new Parts over that

6. Enjoy.

:)
[G1 Android Development] jadephyre:
I have the wrong SPL... guess that means to either start from scratch or scratch it entirely.

If the ROM included german as a choosable language it would be a no-brainer, but this way... (I don't have problems with english, but Operating Systems on phones and computers are something that i'd rather use in german).
[G1 Android Development] roalex:
Well you can see the bright side of things, you get to learn a bit more English or Spanish. Joke aside if you want a German rom you could use hes ported CM 6 rc 1.
[G1 Android Development] v3dran:
Right...last 24hrs i was testing this ROM and my reaction is :eek: ...i was on BiffMod 2.1 which is great, superfast, stable, etc., etc., but this one is even faster and I am more satisfied...flashed it last night, spent 24hrs killing the phone and wasn't able to do that :D, still stable, still fast, not laggy at all, RAM is like after first boot, 23-28, sometimes about 50!!! Mb free, but it drops quickly on "normal" level (23-28)...i think that BiffMod could be as fast as this ROM if there aren't some "extra" options which most of us don't even use, but they slow down the phone...i had to reboot my phone three times per day with BM, had to charge every 10-12hrs, and that is why this ROM has big "+"...charged my phone last night, battery lasted for 23-24hrs when my phone turned off itself...during that time i made about 30mins of calls, sent 10sms, spent about two and a half hrs online via Wi-Fi and made 26Mb of traffic and spent about 4-5hrs of playing around with phone...all in all, very fast, stable, doesn't get slow after 4-5-6hrs of use, battery lasts longer, so this is MY recommendation ;)...
[G1 Android Development] vermaekansh:
thanks for the answer...appericiated
[G1 Android Development] xaueious:
Tried to do a clean install of Test 3 on a 2708 Rogers Dream. Bootlooping.

Flashed the recommended 2825 kernel too.

Both result in bootloops. Also tried test 2. Same results. Hm...
[G1 Android Development] Paul Shirley:
Much better Angry Birds fix: start the game, when the corrupted screen appears go to sleep then wake up, should all be working. So maybe no need to fix init.rc after all, looks like a real Rovio bug.

Better yet, do the same after starting each level and the lag vanishes! Looks like those naughty Rovio boys need to help with OpenGL programming...
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
I promise it works on rogers dreams with the new radio+spl just as well as T-Mobile ones.. What date does the phone think it is.. I've had problems where my clock got reset and this rom would bootloop. (If I let the battery drain all the way .. then left it for a few days on one of my testing phones)
[G1 Android Development] geokuttan:
its soo funny....it works, but i have to like lock the screen for every level. funny how this solution works. :)
[G1 Android Development] Sleeps17:
It seems that the LED colors don't work on this ROM for ChompSMS. Does anyone know how to fix that? Any possible add-on fix or something?
[G1 Android Development] arceles:
Can someone help me? I'm trying to install this rom but it just doesn't start, I did the fastboot wipe but after flashing in the recovery the rom and rebooting the phone this will get stuck with a black screen and a small vibration in different intervals.

I applied the 14 mb ram hack as can be seen on my signature, thanks in advance.

Edit 1: Nevermind, Applied Superwipe and vuala, boots :)

Edit 2: Flashed gapps from cyanogen and ruined the rom, so flashing again... nop, not even using fastboot erase -w works nor super wipe, to bad since the time that it actually started I was surprised of how well it went. one last oportunity... if not there is still always my nandroid backup... booting... nop, back to SuperEclair.
[G1 Android Development] xaueious:
I'll try another time. I am not sure how to set the clock manually in recovery. Restoring to CM6 works fine for now i guess :(
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
easiest is to restore CM6.. set the time.. then install MT3G.. (fastboot erase in between if you like.. but wipe in recovery will probably be enough) keep the USB or AC wire attached while going between the two roms.

Otherwise if you flashed with parts while its bootlooping you can set the time with adb

adb shell date 1290872205.7064731

give it a loop or two it will probably sort its self out.

you realized the GAPPS where not needed right.. Because t-mobile has them in the ota image.

Actually it seems it works better w/o the full acceleration .. but some games need the full acceleration..

change /dev/msm_hw3dc to 0666 will make the splash screen appear w/o lock but the game is not as smooth.

back to 0660 and it works as you describe..

It will be 0660 for other games in the next version of parts with a toggle in froyo parts. (reboot not needed for this one)

Now GPS is working for me.. and agps with wifi networks is spot on ... any ideas why agps is out of wack? the settings seem right.
[G1 Android Development] arceles:
Yeah, but it's not right... is the only rom that has given me this problems of not booting after installing it, also I installed gapps believing that the vanilla stock email application would be there, and it wasn't... Worked fine, even skype worked for me there (it does not on Super Eclair) That's why I installed gapps, because I wanted so badly the Email stock app.
[G1 Android Development] jadephyre:
Installing gapps on a rom that already has them integrated is always a bad idea.
[G1 Android Development] bluizzo:
Does firerats a2sd patch work on this rom, just wondering

Sent from my HTC Dream running MT3G Test3
[G1 Android Development] bestofrhcp:
will the radio and spl work for Test2_S?
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
Why don't you want to upgrade to test3? Particularity as its ticketed as a security patch in the actual OTA!
[G1 Android Development] xaueious:
Too late lol. Not my phone though, and CM6 + ext2 is okay. I might as well wait for a fully packaged release.

Thanks anyways.

By the wya, I'm back because I picked up a Rogers HTC Dream for $100 for my cousin. So I might drop by again. You are the reason I even got one ezterry. The 15MB was key, and now this.

Thanks :D
[G1 Android Development] zosX:
Found out that you can replace the Mms.apk from cyanogen. I don't think it changes a lot other than the black theme. Also you can uninstall music from titanium backup and install the cyanogen apk from a file browser. I don't know what it needs for media server to read flac, but that should be easy to fix. All I think he added in the browser was the incognito window, but you can possibly replace it with copying the apk over manually if you really want the latest and greatest I guess. Still working on dsp manager...I can get it to work, but it clips even with the ported cyanogen kernel. Hopefully the developer will get back to me. A fix for the usb issue is the only real problem I've had with this rom. Everything else is super smooth. With the original ported 2708 cm6 kernel I score over a droid OCed at 595. Nice work everyone! Doesn't eat up a whole lot of ram (1mb?) either. Running fb sync, voice, and I can still multitask. Sweeeeet.

One question remains...is jit enabled? It seems to be....need to maybe run quadrant in cm6 with jit off to see how much difference it makes. The cm6 ported kernel seems a bit smoother I might add. On quadrant scores...the ota beats cyanogen hands down.
[G1 Android Development] bemymonkey:
Similar functionality (which works just as well) is already built into Froyo-Parts on this ROM.
[G1 Android Development] jadephyre:
I finally took the plunge and updated my SPL & Radio to fully enjoy the ROM, and I can now say that I was stupid not to do it earlier :D

It runs faster (in my opinion) than CM5.0.8, though I replaced the stock launcher with LauncherPro.

Hopefully the new parts package for Test 3 will fix the broken 3D :)

Just an astonishing piece of work you put together here ezterry ;)
[G1 Android Development] EdKo66:
Flashed test3 earlier today, and so far everything is working as it should be.
[G1 Android Development] jadephyre:
only thing I will have to do is drain the battery completely and reset battery stats.

It drains rather quickly at the moment (with nothing active that could refresh or something like that).
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
Good to know about the MMS. Also, the mms app that comes with this OTA rom has 0 personalization, the one from CM 6.1 has a lot of options. That is the main difference. When your in the MMS app hit menu and you will see the settings in CM 6.1 or lack of settings in the OTA mms app.
[G1 Android Development] bestofrhcp:
camera doesnt work :/
[G1 Android Development] zosX:
3d isn't working? Its working here as best I can tell. Gallery works and a few other 3d things I've tried.
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
since you do not have details such as a logcat.. and camera works for the rest of us zoom included.. I'd expect very little help.

the generic answers are:

*you can clear dalvik cache, run fix permissions, reboot

*you can erase camera data in application settings

It works, just the lwp makes some popular games run smoother.. while breaking many others..

I will fix the others and install a toggle switch. Expect it Wednesday.
