I'd say its something odd with agps/gps .. I've found best is to disable the one you are not using. (ie if you need GPS enable it but keep network location disabled) .. if using network location disable GPS
[G1 Android Development] Spakainz:
Hi this ROM is great. But have one problem. I updated kernel to 2.6.35.10 and now can't enable compcache. Tryed to enable/disable in froyo parts but nothing helps. How can I fix this problem without downgrading kernel?
[G1 Android Development] Stone Cold:
Thanks for the reply. I'm afraid this didn't help. I really think it might be a hardware problem with the phone. The only way I'll know for sure is to unroot. I have warranty, and my G1 has served me well for a while now. If it does it in the stock configuration, I'll seek warranty replacement of some kind.

So just flash DREAIMG.nbh? Or is there something else I should do first?

Thanks again!
[G1 Android Development] lil-devil:
for what ever reason, lately my phone would just crash and reboot. after the phone finish starting up, it seems like the phone just went back to a fresh flashing and i'd lose all my apps that i have on it

any idea why this would happen? :S
[G1 Android Development] vermaekansh:
Please create an update with circular battery part.

thanks..or how can i change my framework to that...

or is there any theme which i can use.
[G1 Android Development] matesklep:
Yes! Please make some black bar with blue or green circular battery with percentage. Thanks :-)
[G1 Android Development] darekmer:
sorry for the English>> google translator :p

This rom is great, the best in the world! I just missing the 'reboot' and 'reboot to recovery' in the power menu.

Is it possible to do these options?
[G1 Android Development] xela92:
Hey, this ROM rulez!!!!!

It's perfect (even battery is good, but when in use it drains so much :( )

Just a thing: please, add to the PartsB bash and nano!!!!!
[G1 Android Development] legend221:
This has to be the best version of ezterry's Rom I have flashed.

While themes are nice, keep in mind that some will drain your battery quicker from what I've experienced myself.

Am hoping that there will be a stock black status bar in the near future.

My deep respect and appreciation to everyone and anyone that has made this Rom possible.

Everything works, especially apps2sd with a simple check mark and reboot of the phone, I am seriously loving this!

[G1 Android Development] MrShides:
I agree 100%

I almost think this should be placed as like "the" rom to run if you are loooking for stability over lots of xtras.
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
Just push bash/nano from CM6.1 to /system/bin and libcurses.so to /system/lib

Maybe someone will get around to make it flash-able.. but it really seems un-necessary for them to be in parts

Shouldn't unless the theme was not made well..

That said the included kernel is the best overall for the rom.. but not necessarily the most efficient kernel:

exp20110109 (a CM nightly kernel) certainly seems a bit faster and has great battery life.. Unfortunately has some gotchas:

a) USB unplug bug, if you rarely plug into a USB port this is less of an issues, but you do want to reboot after unplugging or battery will drain quickly

b) Green screen on some sapphire phones; all dreams are ok and sapphire phones with the Toshiba screen.

c) If your battery is aging it seems much more likely to have a quick drain + slow charge issue. (good battery's will work well.. and if you see this behavior the battery is not good; check if its bulging at all)

In short if the included kernel works I'd stick with it;

The simple black bar: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9771131&postcount=1493

With that installed if you want different graphics prob. best to ask some themers for a metamorph

Or flash http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10328491&postcount=1647 after installing the simple black bar

Details in OP

Otherwise While the rom runs well I'm done with it as its just the ports of the t-mob MT3G Froyo OTA. Test-3 being the most recent security update with the minimum changes to boot on the dream. (And the external parts package to fill some gaps of course)
[G1 Android Development] legend221:
Ezterry I sincerely appreciate the detailed reply.

Im running the new kernel and its stable as I type this and also the simple black bar.

Dont know why the simple black bar didnt work for me before but now am having no issues with it.

More than grateful for the rom and recommendation!

Do you have the 2708 radio and hboot combo?
[G1 Android Development] diskok:
I'm having issues getting this to boot :/

I flashed CM 6.1.0 fine and have been running that for a while but i want to give this rom a try after reading all the comments.

I think my G1 is a 32b radio is 2_22_23_02

When i flash it just gets stuck at the G1 screen and never boots :(

Somebody point a n00b in the right direction please!

I see the part of the original post "(32b devices only) details on this post.." but after visiting that link im still not sure what i need to be doing

EDIT: i flashed the ezBiffTestKernel20101031-ebi0_S.zip afterwards ( EBI0 (32b) port for 2.22.* radio users: ) and it boots up straight away! time to road test this baby
[G1 Android Development] Lyute:
Maybe it's just me, but I have problems when playing long videos.

After the video goes over 1 hour and 10 minutes or so, the timeline goes back to 0:00; and although the sound continues to play, the video part freezes.

Tapping a point after 1 hour and 10 minutes will get me the video part going, but now the sound is playing 1 hour and 10 minutes behind; and the timeline also goes back 1 hour and 10 minutes which is a problem when pressing the forward or rewind button.

I've tried different video files and tested two different video converters but still no joy.

Does anybody else experience the same problem?

[G1 Android Development] nagash91:
What about modified SMS, phone and contacts?

Modified SMS is vital for me :D Send SMS with enter isn't good.. and of course set the font size to 14 is perfect :)

Also the touch UI for the phone and the modified contacts.apk is good.

If I flash shadowch31 package made for froyoForTrout don't works.. (I think because this rom is deodexed).. contacts.apk don't open (disappears from apps list) and if I fix it, I get a force close..

It would be a good extension for this rom, the final extension for the perfect froyo rom :D
[G1 Android Development] vermaekansh:
need help

I used this rom over months...and then switch to Yoshi's ginger RC5.2 where i faced a lot battery issue which ever kernel i use...

so i came back to the old one (this rom) and since then i faced battery issue in this rom tooo.

currently i am with pershoot's latest kernel but still no win..

i did wipe my battery stat and charged my G1 with power off till 98% and then it went to 73% in just 15 min :(

also just my G1 got switch off i donno why n how :'(

Terible: unplugged since 1:11Pm and its 1:29 and only 43% remain and waht i just got another power off damm (help i love this rom )
[G1 Android Development] :
The fact it has happened on different roms would suggest the battery may be going bad. You could try this kernel http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11565574&postcount=670
[G1 Android Development] :
You can use a modded mms.apk but contacts is a no no I'm afraid, oh and music.apk can be changed without problem as well. Just remember to remove the .apk and the .odex file before pushing the modded versions.
[G1 Android Development] vermaekansh:
Not so happy with the result but still usign this only :) thanks i guess need to flash this one more time with proper steps.

[G1 Android Development] mzmo:
So after using this awesome rom for months, I've been experiencing battery drains a lot lately. Battery would go from 100% to 90% in a mere 10 minutes & would die out in 2 hours or so. My battery life is reasonable, only a couple of months old. I've tried everything, from turning off auto sync, 3g to 2g, gps etc, to wiping battery stats at full charge & using the phone till it dies out. Still no dice.

Was wondering if there's a newer/more efficient kernel?

Thanks in advance.

[G1 Android Development] vermaekansh:
i thing to ask...how old is your battery....

i was also facing the same issue and found that my battery was old and swelled a bit..so i hanged it with the new one, an dguess what now i am getting battery 9 hrs straight with GPS ON all the time...some chatting ..few calls few downloads and few msgs.....

you shud give it a try..and buy a new 1150mAh battey :) good luck
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
While I agree with the previous poster if you are having very bad battery life with the included kernel that it may be time to check the battery;

My current recommendation for a kernel is the upgrade to the included kernel ezBiffTestKernel20110222

It may not be quite as powerful as the exp20110109 kernel I mentioned a bit back but avoids the USB drain and green screen bugs and has most of the efficiency with scheduler and cpufreq updates. Also users of 32A devices (MT1.2/fender/and classic) get an extra 10MB ram using 20110222.
[G1 Android Development] azrash:
so the exp20110109 kernel is much more energy efficient than the ezbifftest? many thanks! i will test the kernel soon
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
different..

exp20110109 [linux 2.6.35.10] has less back light drain but biff testing 20110222 [2.6.34.8] is better or the same on other aspects and has no USB drain [so if you tether with USB, or use it to charge overnight and don't want to reboot everytime you unplug 20110222 is better]

20110222 seems a nice improvement over 20101106 the kernel in test3 and I do recommend it for all users.. (other kernels ought to be considered experimental only with this rom)
[G1 Android Development] mzmo:
Alright then, I've just ordered a new battery & I'll also re-flash this rom with a fully charged battery just in case.

Appreciate the help ezTerry & vermaekansh.

[G1 Android Development] tom0769:
I installed this rom (with latest bifftest kernel, I always use this one) a few days ago coming from biffmod and laszlo's rom.

Though this rom has not jit enabled and actually I've setup no compcache it runs very smooth and stable.

It is minimum as fast as laszlo's and actually the battery life is even better than biffmod.:D

I'm totally satisfied with it and gonna stay with it for the next time.

The only thing I'm missing are the power control buttons in notification from CM.

The stock power control widget is missing data (2G/3G) on/off.

Tried some widget from market, but they don't work well.

As I understood this rom is odexed.

Any chance to get the powercontrol of CM installed in this rom?
[G1 Android Development] azrash:
yeap has never looked back when i use this rom, been using it as my main driver for the past few weeks since i got my g1, cant wait for ezgingerbread/ads/cosds to be as good as this!

use autorun, and automemory manager to otptimize ram usage. btw try swipepad! one of the application that helps a lot! its a simple shortcut app that you can use even when you are in other apps other than the home screen. here http://www.appbrain.com/app/swipepad-beta/mobi.conduction.swipepad.android

Was going to play around with this ROM and themes this weekend, but never could get signed in - G1 keyboard not functional and number keys not functional on onscreen keyboard. Thoughts?

Adn titanium backup dont work on this rom.
[G1 Android Development] anddep:
actually this rom was the first time i ever used titanium. its working perfectly on mine.
[G1 Android Development] azrash:
if titanium backup to restore certain system app doesnt work, try to mount system as RW, that was what i did, im not sure why it worked though

go here, shadowch31 have a great set of scripts that i uses everyday.:p download gscript from the market, and download the gscripts.zip from here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6762470&postcount=208

open up gscript, load the scripts, and run mount system with RW, do all the app restore you want with titanium backup, and then mount sytem with RO :D

im not sure why though, have you tried fastboot erase system -w?

another black & blue theme which is on my rom now. most images came from kevin2516 touchwiz. Thanks

http://www.multiupload.com/YH2IUENB72
[G1 Android Development] sisterchick:
Got it going...my bad...problem was with Custom MTD and my partmap.txt.

And I answered by own question - metamorph works nicely with this ROM. For dark themes, just flash the Simple Black Bar pkg from the OTA first and be sure there aren't any XML inside the subfolders like framework, settings, deskclock, etc. (Leave the theme XML file alone!)
[G1 Android Development] R3N0V4D0:
a little bit offtopic but i was able to MM minimal green from laszlo's to ezterry's 2.3.3 using zip themer, it makes a flashable MM for any rom :) works nice :)

basically i have minimal green on gingerbread ;)
[G1 Android Development] sisterchick:
Are you sure? You may have picked one of the only themes that would work. Reason I question is because Zip Themer uses the theme control xml to choose the items to make the zip file. Froyo MM do not usually have the System UI apk used for the notification icons in Gingerbread - they are in framework-res in Froyo. Your zip themer file may look okay because stock Gingerbread has the same green icons as Froyo by Laszlo stock theme in the system UI file. (Froyo by Laszlo stock theme is a combination of Gingerbread icons and Minimal Green.) You can test this by trying a Froyo metamorph with different color notification icons - like a blue battery or something. I suspect you will see green.
[G1 Android Development] wuziq:
i'm going crazy with a particular issue.

basically the touch screen will sometimes think i'm touching one spot on the screen when i'm actually touching a different spot. back when i was on super E, there was a dev tool that showed the pointer location (i.e., where on the screen you were touching), and i remember seeing that it would think i'm touching two locations at the same time when i'm only touching one. my friend who is using super D also notices the same thing.

it doesn't happen all the time. when it does, i just figure it's some weird static electricity thing or something. the thing that usually works is just rigorously wiping the screen (with my fingers, or my shirt), but it really sucks to have to do this, especially if i'm in the middle of writing an email and i touch somewhere in the edit text box and it thinks i've touched the send button :mad: i've tried 2 different screen protectors but get the same result.

has anyone noticed this? is there something wrong with my digitizer or something? any help would be GREATLY appreciated..

edit: sorry, i just became acutely aware of the fact that this issue isn't specific to this ROM. but nevertheless someone in here may know what's up.... i hope..
[G1 Android Development] :
Personally I've never had any of the problems you have described on any rom and the fact that it happens on different roms would suggest to me that the phone is at fault and not the software.

i got this rom the way i like it and i am using 88mb of ram :) no swap, no cc, no jit

no apps to sd.. :) using farmitos kernel non bfs (latest) unplugged it for 8 hours and used 5% :) now just to work on the DL tweaks :)
[G1 Android Development] arsonist63086:
Just like to say I like this rom especialy the 88mb app space just have 3 issues...

1st.. I can't write to system folder with out REMOUNT app from the market..

2nd.. why can't I install the latest busybox

3rd.. main issue. I can't seem to view HQ videos on youtube I have to watch them in SQ even though I'm useing wifi. :-/ (I flashe the rom and parts b 2times to make sure if it would go away..)
[G1 Android Development] roalex:
first off you cant install a newer busybox pack cause you don't need a newer one, new != good, secondly the xbin, where it resides its on a squash fs, that means is READ only(it saved a lot of space being that way).

system folder should be readonly

no idea about youtube or if it should work to watch HD on g1.
[G1 Android Development] arsonist63086:
oh ok thanks for the info.. as for the youtube issue you can watch

hq videos on it but on my g1 its a hit or miss with this rom (im coming from biffmod 2.1).

[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
Um:

You can try saying no.. (or to avoid a full reinstall set the gprsclass in build.prop to 10 manually [as no=10 yes=12])

or just look up ro.rill properties others have listed optimized versions of on XDA and modify build.prop accordingly.
[G1 Android Development] roccoadam32:
gprs class was already set to 12 but what i did was change the ro.ril hsxpa=2 to 1 and a get a much more stable signal instead of dropping 5 bars to zero i drop 5 to 4 bars never lower and im getting much better battery life and it says im still on hsdpa still

Experimental kernel

If anyone in interested in testing it out:

ezgb-2636-v1.4f_S.zip = froyo version of the ezGingerbread kernel

Seems to work alright maybe with some speed improvement over the Test3 rom.

1) backup your current configuration

2) install kernel (via update.zip or rom manager)

3) if you experience slow downs run fix permissions (via rom manager, the script if you installed parts or recovery)

then test how it goes.. if you have problems revert to 20110222 (also available on rom manager)
[G1 Android Development] :
Flashing and testing now and as always thank you so much for the hard work you continue to do.

Using Fat182 myself and no such issue.
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
Um.. the wifi sleep issue is fixed in 1.2+ make sure you are using 1.4-froyo not 1.1-gingerbread.

Otherwise logcat.

My problem with 2636 is it seems to cause pegged CPU errors in CM6.1

yea it was the froyo when im not being lazy ill flash it again and copy a logcat for you i reverted to my other kernel already

[G1 Android Development] :
Did you do a complete wipe before flashing? With a rom like this, it helps to do a fastboot system wipe and, in my opinion, a five points wipe if you're using RA Recovery.
