I can tell you my experience:

with Biffmod+14MB hack = speedier ROM, faster* battery drain

with AOSPtest2+14Mb hack = even speedier**, even faster** battery drain

Hope this help.

* compared to the same version of the respective ROMs w/o the hack.

** compared to the Biffmod 2.1+14MB hack
[G1 Android Development] Phateless:
Have you compared this to the completely ota froyo rom + root + ezterry's kernel?
[G1 Android Development] roalex:
Been trying a few google fixes but it wont do it seams:

changed in tiwlan.ini >​

WiFiAdHoc = 1

in the etc wpa conf file>​

ctrl_interface=tiwlan0

update_config=1

eapol_version=1

ap_scan=2

in the /data.. wpa conf file>

network={

ssid=”whatever”

mode=1

key_mgmt=NONE

group=WEP104

auth_alg=SHARED

wep_key0="it”

}

also pushed the wpa bin's from CM in one of the tests

so any other smart things to try ?:P

In case i was unclear, basically the scan ignores the ad-hoc networks, it dosen't show them or connects to them, i have tested the network from my netbook so it does work.
[G1 Android Development] vermaekansh:
is there anything you can do for the boot time(start time) it take a lot of time to get boot :(
[G1 Android Development] coolme90:
test 3 is not booting up for me hmm
[G1 Android Development] bemymonkey:
Is there a way to avoid the battery drain? I remember reading something about it happening after being connected via USB? Just reboot after connecting to PC and that's it?
[G1 Android Development] zosX:
Best rom yet. Quick question. Is jit enabled. Sorry if this was discussed and I missed it.

Thanks ezterry!

Test 3 - Battery Drain

I was using the Test2 till 2 days back. Was testing BiffMod. Now I am back to Test2. Meanwhile I saw that Test3 is out.

I loved Test2 purely because of the battery life. It simply lasted longer than I can ever remember!!! Also the stability was simply superb.

Now the question is, will test3 give me similar results with the battery life compared to test2?? Anybody??

/Ash
[G1 Android Development] canizares:
Angry Birds is no longer playble on Test3, but Ok on Test2...
[G1 Android Development] roalex:


it works fine for me on test 3 with compcache from the addon.

nm, I does not :)
[G1 Android Development] vermaekansh:
Currently i have flashed test3 without the new radio 2708 and spl 13d..coz i have flashed the ezterry kernel ebi0...

just saw the pershoot's kernel

having some merger with ezterry's kernel...

can i flash this kernel with test 3 now.
[G1 Android Development] the.igorr:
I have a big problem with test3.

Every time I try to view a message in Gmail - whole application restarts.

Browser dies on attepmt to open any site (even google.com) and I'm back in home screen (no fc - it's just closing).

Any app with built-in ads crashes while trying to show ad (eg. free Astro File Manager) again no fc - home screen appear like if I pressed home button.

I tried to wipe countless times, instaling without parts, remove my sim card, format sd card and I'm out of ideas now. Help, please!
[G1 Android Development] abdoooou:
Is this Rom correspond to Phone

my phone

htc magic b32

radio 3.22

]
[G1 Android Development] abdoooou:
i need any rom to

htc magic b32

radio 3.22

plz
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
Sigh

Im sure both my kernel and pershoots works fine but not when you install the kernel for 2.22 on a device with 3.22

The ebi1 kernel is for 3.22. Or if you want extra ram use my fastboot instructions to switch to the 2708 (and greater) radios with extra ram.
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
Fix permission usually fixes gapp problems
[G1 Android Development] v3dran:
BiffMod is very good, but there's one thing making me flash AOSP 2.2 ROM...when i update friends or facebook or tweeter widget on LauncherPro Plus via WiFi or data connection, it doesn't show updates automatically, sometimes reboot or 15-20 minutes of waiting is required...i used to have those type of things in the moment, while updating...so ONE, but very annoying thing for me...and one more, whole system slows down when i'm connected to WiFi, and apps are opening VERY SLOW ;)

If battery drain is even faster with this ROM, we'll have 12-15 hours between chargings, because my battery lasts 20-24 hrs with BiffMod...CPU is on 528MHz, and if it was on 576 or even higher, i would have to carry 2-3 batterys on with me :D...
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
Well its the same kernel.. so maybe you use this rom more..

Fyi 528 and 576 are the same voltage levels.. 480 is better for saving power, depending on usage you may find interactive also an improvement.
[G1 Android Development] v3dran:
Thanks for the info ;), i'll try running on 480MHz by default and see if there are some changes...and yes, my Screen Off profile is set on 176Min-245Max, but still my battery goes down for about 5-10% during the night :S...sometimes it goes down for 1-2%, but when i just touch the screen it goes down for 7% more in 1-2 minutes...
[G1 Android Development] :
No problems with Gmail or any other app so far all is working as it should, have also moved everything to sd and started compcache which I've increased to 32mb (my system seems to love it, same on every rom) using the FroyoParts.apk. Very nice work on that one sir!

Restoring 181 apps (yes I know but it's my phone and I really can't be arsed if you think thats too many. ITS MY PHONE!) :D - 62 albums fully loaded within 5 minutes - Removed tones from /system/media/audio - Installed a bootanimation.zip in /data/local - Removed Launcher and installed ADWLauncher v1.1.5 with home in memory checked in FroyoParts.apk - All system apps opened and tested working, market downloads and installs great - Whilst flashing increased to 12 for 3g and it does work, had a lovely 3g speed boost so far. Will test further when apps installed.

Back to edit when it's finished updating.
[G1 Android Development] the.igorr:
I tried that as well, but with no effect.

Is there possibility that my g1 has some sort of defect that causes these kind of problems (in test2 I wasn't able to run messaging aplication)? Nand failure or sth?
[G1 Android Development] :
How do you wipe your phone? Maybe remnants of rabid Gapps causing the problems?
[G1 Android Development] the.igorr:
I belivie I've tried the all :( : fastboot erase, super wipe, rm system/data/cache from recovery.
[G1 Android Development] :
Have you removed the .android_secure, Lost & Android folders.

My little way of wiping is double wipe using fastboot erase system -w one after the other, boot to recovery, wipe all and then repair ext, reboot, wipe again then flash rom.

I know it's overkill but it puts my mind at rest.
[G1 Android Development] the.igorr:
AFAIK Super Wipe removes .android_secure dir.

I even flashed test3 + parts afetr SuperWipe, power off my phone and then REMOVED my SD to make sure that it isn't sdcard-related. And again gapps isn't working properly.

After I disabled JavaScript in browser it started to work, but gmail and aps including ads still fails. That makes me think that it could be Javascript parser failure.

Bad permissions on /dev/msm_hw3dc & /dev/msm_hw3dm

try:

su
chmod 660 /dev/msm_hw3dc
chmod 660 /dev/msm_hw3dm

If that doesn't work try 666, it was too late last night and I just 666'd them without checking.
[G1 Android Development] Phateless:
Do a complete wipe (data/cache/dalvik cache) and reflash everything.

This time on the first boot, DON'T TOUCH IT until it's been sitting at the "touch to begin" screen for at least 20 minutes.

There are all sorts of background processes and "thinking" going on when the phone boots a new rom for the first time. Just leave it alone for 20 minutes after it boots to the sign in screen to let it finish thinking.

Trust me, this makes a HUGE difference in rom stability.
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
Or just watch the logcat and when its done you can start....probably end up waiting a lot less than 20 minutes. Just sayin'
[G1 Android Development] the.igorr:
Thx for advice, guys. I'll to be patient and give it a try.
[G1 Android Development] Phateless:
Very true.
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
Has anyone managed to pull the MMS app from CM 6.1 RC and push it into this (test 3) successfully?

Would be lovely if it works. It has an extra option that I miss which is changing the text size in the messaging app. Also I like the black background better than the white background. :D
[G1 Android Development] roalex:
This works, 666.
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
What does that do exactly? In reference to the chmod part for 3d.
[G1 Android Development] roalex:
It fixes that GPU permission, the game will start proper then, its quite lagy tho and goes away after reboot.

Flashing test3 over test2

I am currently running test2, and it is going beautifully. I am on radio 2.22.27.08, and am using custom MTD partitions, and the phone never goes below 25mb free.

However, in the spirit of "you can never have too much of a good thing", I am thinking of trying out test3.

A full wipe would entail messing with my MTD partitioning, and would generally be kind of ugly. I know that it is cleanest to do a full wipe, but can anybody tell me if it would be safe to simply flash test3 over test2?

Thanks in advance!
[G1 Android Development] nleung:
After installing the DroidX keyboard, is there anyway to turn off the suggestions when using the physical keyboard?

Also, when I use the physical keyboard and type '?' followed by a space, it opens up the special characters menu, which is a little annoying. Is there any fix for this? Otherwise I'll just revert back to the stock keyboard.
[G1 Android Development] jeffakajeff:
Love the fast boot-time. Well done! :)
[G1 Android Development] pepone1234:
I have flashed the test3 parts zip and I have a small problem. The compcache option doesn't work.

No matter if the option is checked or unchecked when I reboot and type the "free" command in the terminal application the amount of ram is exactly the same an the swap is still set to zero.

Any suggestion?

best way to get back to original keyboard?

I flashed the droid x keyboard, but i've had issues hitting the enter button & "abc" button, I had no trouble with the other keyboard. How do I go back?
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
re-flash the rom (and if you flashed it parts) don't wipe

(I'm very curios why the '?' button is causing issues.. Otheriwise you need to try to tap the "top" of the buttons in the bottom row .. takes a moment)

its part of the keyboard settings in settings. (Multi Touch keyboard settings)

facing battery drain problem in test3....

fully charged battery after 4hrs only 30% left...
[G1 Android Development] the.igorr:
I did exactly as you said, I was doing nothing until logcat (bout 10 minutes) stopped and I got the same thing again - browser keep closing without fc, I can't view any messages in Gmail - same thing: close on attemp, no fc, all apps including ads are closing too.

Now I'm really running low on ideas what to do.:confused:
[G1 Android Development] studjuice:
thanks you were right, and i added it.

i just added the trout keyboard stuff from the /usr folder. that's basically it

i'm uploading my fixed mod of this right now. i'll edit this post in 4 minutes when it's done

*official froyo test1.1*
[G1 Android Development] nickeedoo:
'twill this be a no-wipe update? or perhaps a zip containing all the files we need to put somewhere?
[G1 Android Development] studjuice:
I bet you won't HAVE to wipe. in fact i'm pretty sure you won't have to. but I don't see a reason not to, considering what it might be worth :P

(it's a full rom in case that's what your asking)

but technically it is a .zip with everything you need inside it :P

link is now live
[G1 Android Development] nickeedoo:
oh ok, a wipe update :D (as far as i'm concerned) :P

edit: FIRST!!!

lol i troll you

Thanko, waiting!
[G1 Android Development] studjuice:
although it seems wifi is working, and i feel like it probably does for you guys, it's not connecting for me. I'm at college and our network set up is complex (and stupid) so my phone has always had problems staying connected to it with cm, but it would always get connected at some point.

and now i can't seem to actually fully connect.

and the reason this is important is because i use a g1 as my dev phone, not my actual phone, so wifi is the only way i can actually use it to test stuff out :/
[G1 Android Development] nickeedoo:
see, this is why we can't have nice things. lol i'll tell you in a minute when i've got it booted.
[G1 Android Development] bi0hzr:
hi all, so till now, what is not working yet?

im downloading the first post rom and the 101 post rom

any advice before install? in a tmobile g1

my f5 its getting broken
[G1 Android Development] studjuice:
my advice is to test it out, and come back and tell us what you've found to be broken. for what i uploaded, pretty much most stuff works and i'm unable to find out what's broken or not.

so far the one thing broken, is my own problem. and that's the fact that i'm unable to connect to a college internet wifi.
[G1 Android Development] nickeedoo:
all you need to do is use the 101 post rom. everything works in it. it also has magical powers.
[G1 Android Development] nickeedoo:
yeah your wifi just sucks, i've connected to mine, and thanks so much for your zip :D

edit: keyboard works, adb works, for me the debugging icon was on in the status bar, but it wasn't plugged in, fixed by plugging in, then unplugging :)
[G1 Android Development] studjuice:
hey you are welcome. I guess i'll still have to keep working on it just to get it working for myself.

until then, could you download a terminal emulator and get me a 'df'. just curious how much space in system mostly. the total, used, and available if you don't mind :)

sure,

-camera zoom (almost had to change my pants :))

-Bluetooth works (on a myTouch here, sorry G1 users ;))

Fact is, this has the speed of the original 1.6 ROM with the awesom-ness of Froyo :D

first start, skip the google sync then gets a reset i dont know why i just change language to spanish, after reset all working great so far

come back later with more info

thanks by the way
[G1 Android Development] studjuice:
i'm not really looking into the a2sd stuff, never have with froyo. because it's not really needed. as long as you do firerat's mtd part hack you can just froyo2sd for the big apps and you are set. plus it's faster and healthier imo
[G1 Android Development] kibmcz:
Great work :)

any possibility of getting rid of the need to insert sim? My Ion (Magic 32b) is not used as phone due to the Ion not doing umts 850 and its pain to pull sim out of my Gravity T just to install rom :(

Again great work making it fully run without the need of newer spl/radio :)
[G1 Android Development] nickeedoo:
few hours later, market and stuff open in background, messaging and dialer open in less than a second. maybe 1 second... but this is amazing. :D
[G1 Android Development] dm10:
Hey great work on the rom + spl + radio.

I've got it all installed on my magic 32b. Still had the stock radio so followed your instructions in the CM6 thread, installed the radio and spl, then restored my Test2 rom and upgraded to Test3. So far so good.

One question as I'm still getting notifications about system updates, which I'm pretty sure I shouldn't install. I thought these checks were removed from your rom? Is there something I can do to stop them. I'm in Australia if that makes any difference.
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
Can you run the following adb command:

'adb shell find /cache'

after provide the output.
[G1 Android Development] dm10:
/cache

/cache/recovery

/cache/lost+found

Hope that helps
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
No was hoping to see the zip file it was trying to update..

The message appears near the boot correct?

if so just take a logcat when it appears saving all the output (put on paste bin) and maybe that will show me what is up.

I don't see any updates.. but my serial number is wrong for any of these updates.

Anyone else with MT3G phones seeing this?
[G1 Android Development] dm10:
Sorry false alarm I think. I was getting them all day on test2. After upgrading tonight one notification came up but now that I have cleared it, the notification hasn't reappeared.

When I check system updates in the settings it says phone is up to date, where before it said an update was available.

Sorry about that ezterry.

Thanks again.
[G1 Android Development] Sleeps17:
I'm about to flash this on my HTC Dream/G1. Will I be okay with a 2.22.23.02 radio and DangerSPL? I'm kinda' new to the rooting scene..

EDIT: Okay never mind, I tried and I was stuck at the G1 logo. I don't know what I'm doing, so I'll just give up here before I brick!
[G1 Android Development] sheckaman:
Thanks. That's the answer I needed to here, didn't want to have to wipe again, so now I know. I did notice that hitting the top's of the buttons helps, but I don't always remember, so it slows me down.
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
What is step 4.c?
[G1 Android Development] guaiwujia:
nice work

I love it~~~
[G1 Android Development] Sleeps17:
Alright, I read 4.c, I downloaded the appropriate one for my device, which is 32b ebi0 kernel w/ 2.22 radio. From reading the instructions, I flash the ebi0 kernel after I'm done flashing your ROM, correct?

Sorry for being a newb.

EDIT: Yep, working now thanks! Much better than CM6 for sure!
[G1 Android Development] raven_raven:
I tried to localize this ROM using htc kitchen like I did with test2, but it's no use. Ezterry, is there any way for a person who don't know much about coding in Android to localize this ROM? I love it, but not in english... I'd love to see polish in it :(.
[G1 Android Development] :
Okay so I've been running this for a day now and am really enjoying it. It's been fast, stable and responsive with 5 screens and 64 widgets/shortcuts 6 requiring internet access, 165 apps. All in Froyoparts checked barring Data\files to SD Card. CC increased to 32mb.

Getting usual battery life which is fair in comparison to my usage, I get a day no problem and that is with the aforementioned widgets and the fact wifi, 3g and gps are always on, screen at 40% brightness and auto sync on. Also replaced Launcher2.apk with ADW v1.1.5, this needed a little tweaking to work but got there using a flashable version and some trickery.

Camera, video everything really is working barring one issue with 3d which we have discussed EZTerry and your already aware of. Some things work, some lag. Personally I have Angry Birds working beautifully so thats all I care about oh and Rolling Thunder too which is my break from birds!

So fast stable, hammered and still no sign of slowdown only thing not checked is multi tasking which I'm off to do shortly.

Thanks again Terry for a fantastic simple and stable rom.
[G1 Android Development] HTCMDA:
angry birds doesn't lag on your G1 using this rom?

is that what you're saying?

I should have mentioned I have an adfree copy of the latest release which is a lot smoother than the ad version. My mistake for not mentioning that.
[G1 Android Development] the.igorr:
I finally managed to accomplish my countless attempts to install test3 properly. I done it using FixFlash script that I found on xda. It has repaired my installation and miraculously cured this rom. Everything finally works as it should.

Ezterry, thank you for your great job!

It does lag, not quite sure why yet. Ads are not a problem thought, simply unpack this hosts and copy it into /system/etc/, no more ads.
