Hello I am trying to install this, I am very noob at android, just got g1 few days ago. It keeps saying E:can't find update script installation aborted.

This is why I tried and hopefully got correctly:

Rooting

SPL

now trying to upload rom via 1.8.2

i am now trying the 1.6 ver and its going further than 1.8.2 did so I assume I did something wrong with 1.8.2 I tried it several times.

When this finishes it will be 2.2.1 right?
[G1 Android Development] :
What radio and spl you on? Would be nice to tell us so we can help ;)
[G1 Android Development] sobuze:
My life is getting miserable for this

Any Help !!!! Please ..... !! Save Me !!!
[G1 Android Development] :
Post a logcat to pastebin.

Have you tried reflashing?
[G1 Android Development] gotgohan:
Alright I think my radio ver is 62.33.20.08H_1.22.12.29 labeled Baseband version I think thats it.

And the spl I haven't the slightest idea haha
[G1 Android Development] :
Seriously? Fella you have a lot of reading and learning to do!

Boot phone using power+camera. The information is in there.
[G1 Android Development] gotgohan:
Thank you sir for the help. I ended up unrooting to 1.6 so the lag would stop haha. Are the later versions of android suppose to lag on G1?

I would like to go through with going to 2.2.1 or something higher than 1.6 that would be fast and stable. If you could point out a decent radio, and give me a link as how to update it, I could not find it. Also what spl should I use, maybe the one I had sucked, haha thank you for reading.

where are cm settings?

how to install multilanguage pack?

thanks for the rom!
[G1 Android Development] jermo:
i just cant for the life of me get it to stop saying "can't find update script" and it aborts. ive done so much to install this ROM i just give up!
[G1 Android Development] sobuze:
Hi,

Thanks for the reply . Yes , I did reflash it couple of times and result is same. Here is the log as you have asked for :

http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=2JQ9wwzm

Thanks again and appreciated .

:-)
[G1 Android Development] :
Thats because it's flashable in recovery and if you tried unzipping it you will find the apk. And if you're using Terry's asop flash the mt3gpartsb.zip as this contains exactly the same thing?! Did you even read his thread or that I kanged this from Terry with his permission? Honestly if only people would learn to read properly.....

Very noob :D

Point 1 - This is ASOP which means it's source and therefore free of cm bloat hence my introduction of EzTerry's Froyo Parts to give us the extra's like apps2ext, cc, dext2sd etc.

If you want cm based then Froyo By Laszlo is the one to go for.

Point 2 - I have no clue on this, anyone else?

Never Give Up!

As my mother say's she didn't raise not quitter! Hence why I refuse to stop smoking :D

Anyway first question is Radio and SPL version? My Irc channel beckons!

I'll have a look for you fella, I'm in my Irc channel if you want to pop in and we can talk easier :)
[G1 Android Development] :
Just had a quick look through but can't see anything out of place. Just curious as to whether you have tried flashing a different rom? I'm wondering if this is hardware and not software.

Edit: Can you post a logcat of the phone booting up please.
[G1 Android Development] sobuze:
Hi,

Thanks a lot . Well.. I was using this very rom's 1.6 version and then I upgraded to 1.8.2 along with new radio/kernel as instructed on OP. It was absolutely fine after that for couple of days and then lately this present issue arrived .

I will definitely post the boot log .

Thanks again , cheers

:-)
[G1 Android Development] :
Have to ask, have you checked in settings/Wireless & Network settings to see if Airplane mode is unchecked?

Also if you are on the new radio and spl try flashing Laszlo's v5.2 froyo rom to use as a test subject to see if error is corrected.
[G1 Android Development] sobuze:
Thanks again for all the cooperation . well as i mentioned in my earlier post that while restart , the airplane mode gets enabled by default everytime . Then I need to uncheck it to disable . and after that if i try automatic/manual for the network , it does not registered to the network most of the time, say for 9 out of 10 times it wont get registered .

I will try the other rom you have mentioned but honestly I was so happy with the present one since v1.6

anyway , will keep you updated .

thanks again ..
[G1 Android Development] :
The other rom was mentioned to use as a test subject to rule out a sim/hardware issue. I have every intention of getting this working for you again!

And thanks but don't forget a logcat of booting the phone after you have ruled out above.

[G1 Android Development] ralphclark:
Custom MTD with small cache partition

I'm trying out this ROM for the first time having arrived, via various aborted gingerbread experiments from CM6 nightly builds and CM6.1 final.

As a result of the history with CM6 I already 1.33.0013d SPL, the 2.22.28.25 "new" radio, and I have custom MTD set up with a small 2MB cache partition as per Firerat's recommendation, and I have experience running the AIO script to set up a2ext and bind mounts for /cache and /data.

I'd like to set up the new ROM to release as much space for /data as possible in order to keep the most I/O-sensitive apps in internal flash. So can I keep my 2MB cache partition, or does this ROM - or any of the add-ons listed in the first two posts (the All-in-One update and the FAT182Addon automatic firerat patch) - require access to a larger cache partition during setup?

Alternatively - I think you said the stock partitions are OK, and IIRC the stock partition layout on the G1 allowed only 70MB for /system - can I even reflash the recovery image with custom MTD of only 70MB for /system and 2MB for /cache?
[G1 Android Development] :
Firstly my addons require nothing more than what your system is already running bar the inclusion of froyoparts which if memory serves me right is around 50kb with the inclusion of the live wallpaper picker so not gonna have any impact at all really, (as you will find stated below, how hard really would it have been to download them and simply check for yourself?) but I'm probably wrong and well can't be arsed checking at this moment in time.

As for the rom itself I don't bother with MTD and never have but honestly by time you had logged in here and written your question you could have just tried the numbers yourself and found out that way.
[G1 Android Development] zsouthboy:
Was using SuperD forever, tried CM6, it was too slow, went back to SuperD.

Flashed this after backing up my SuperD install - holy crap, this might stay on my phone! How is it so much faster than CM6?

Thank you RichieDaze
[G1 Android Development] kevin.hansen:
Should flash work out-of-the-box with this ROM?

I have tried different flash sites, checked market etc. but as far as I can see, flash 10.1 is not present?

Kind Regards,

Kevin
[G1 Android Development] zsouthboy:
Adobe Flash will never work on our G1s. Flash is complied for the ARM7 processor architecture, our G1s have ARM11.

Since new chips are all ARM7, it's incredibly unlikely that Adobe would release a plugin compatible with our old phones ever.

I have used themes on others

| mytouch | vouge|touch pro | evo | samsung acclaim | samsung intercept |

havent really used metamorph.

But im pretty at good at design. I made custom icons/docks for launcher pro. as well as my own website

Ill start working on the wallpaper now. Whats a good rez for the g1.

if you can direct me to learning more on theming i can come up with a custom one for you
[G1 Android Development] transitoyspace:
just a quick one for right now cause i gotta go out.

let me know if you guys like it or have any ideas for a new one

Wondering if someone that was using the Rom from my signature and now using this can provide feedback on the fastness, stability and battery life vs. that specific Rom.

Im so close in flashing this myself.. looking forward for an easy apps2sd/ext implementation and themes if indeed its as good or exceeds the Official AOSP 2.2 OTA
[G1 Android Development] bfreexxx:
it's just as snappy... modded in a couple of small but cool ways... ie. can uninstall amazon mp3 and my favs... i haven't been running it long enough to tell if there will be any slow down or other glitches that i found with AOSP.
[G1 Android Development] legend221:
Great, thanks for the quick reply.

Will be flashing this in the next couple of mins.

What types of modifications did you do on this Rom?
[G1 Android Development] bunu:
I will forever love the person who can fix the build.prop and resign the zip. The details are on page 2.

Fix the build.prop for mytouch 3G (original). I would do it but I don't know how to resign.

I will include the modded build.prop if you don't want to edit the original one. Just unzip the .zip file
[G1 Android Development] yohshua:
iam uploading an edited one for the mytouch if anyone needs it. full rom it is signed and all how have not tested it but all that is changed is the build.prop

The first boot might take a short long while... If it does not boot, send me a complete catlog...

I never ran a ddms on a live phone call, but this should be fun...

640x480 is the proper size.... I love it!

Themes are almost ready for everybody. I have been playing with this theme.I got Alt white clock on status bar ready. Working on Date and notifications...They can be flashed or Morphed on.

Apps2sd is also being sorted out...
[G1 Android Development] transitoyspace:
Ya the boot time took longer than usual on custom roms but the actual rom has been good. My bro told me autorotate was dragging him down. but not a big deal cuz he turn it off

Would you like more? maybe have launcherpro as the default launcher so we can do custom dock and icons

check out sparksmod he has apps2sdext working

also i tried that theme and it got stuck on bootloop. but i had ra amon recovery installed.

do you know the link to learn more on theming.
[G1 Android Development] biglo:
That theme would look pretty nice.
[G1 Android Development] hrk:
I have a question related to the internal system clock & USB charging. I am running CyanogenMod 6.1RC1 but I have been having the following issue since CM5.0.x. Before flashing I never checked so I don't know if it's a problem the G1 has always had or if it's related to CyanogenMod. I'd like to find out if your ROM has the same issue.

I use ClockSync to keep my system clock up to date.

With normal usage of the phone, the clock is "good", and I can have just a little +0.1 seconds after 24 hours of it running alone. Good clock.

As soon as the phone gets charged, though, the clock slows down, so let's say I charge it for 2 hours, I check with ClockSync and I've got 4-5 seconds of "slow" clock. The first time I noticed it was after I left it charging the night and getting the work alarm 2 minutes late. :)

I know that I could NANDROID, flash this ROM and try it for myself, but I'd like to know if you already know if the issue is here too.

TIA

[G1 Android Development] ralphclark:
Heavens, you're a tetchy fellow aren't you. Is that your real photo up there by any chance? :p

As it happens you mistook my meaning somewhat. I don't waste people's time with questions I could easily resolve myself and before I posted I'd already flashed, booted and inspected the file system both pre- and post-boot without really learning anything conclusive. It looked to me like there was quite a lot of stuff in /cache afterwards, but that wouldn't matter so long as it only gets put there after the bind-mount has been completed.

I have read that /cache is used by as a sort of maildrop for passing data between the fully booted system and the recovery system - so for instance if there is something special going on during the first boot that needs /cache as a scratch area then a tiny internal flash /cache partition could cause all sorts of unpredictable crap that I can't guess at without unpicking all of the scripts.

I just wanted to bounce my question off the maintainers as a basic sanity check, since it's not yet been explicitly mentioned anywhere in this thread what the minimum partition requirements are for this ROM, and the maintainers, I thought, surely have some idea.
[G1 Android Development] :
Deleted and laughed off as figured what would be the point.
[G1 Android Development] ralphclark:
Beware of the Dog

If you can't even try to answer my questions about how the ROM is put together maybe you should just stand aside and spare us your arrogant huffing and puffing. Never mind, I've given the ROM a full workout now and it doesn't meet my needs. Also I have concerns about support e.g. why this thread doesn't get many visitors... maybe it has something to do with them getting pounced on and flamed as soon as they walk in.

Gee, look what I saw the other day:

LOL. Look in the mirror, "fella".
[G1 Android Development] :
Flamed? Tetchy? Concerns about support? Arrogant huffing and puffing? Boy ain't you the little drama queen.

Fella I answered your question and wondered why you hadn't just tried it for yourself which became apparent in post two you had but somehow I'm meant to be a mind reader and know all that from what you originally posted.

And please don't try making me out to be some arsehole that hasn't a clue or is not willing to help people. I created the extras and stand by what I said, all you had to do was download them to see what was inside them to see they would not have a large impact on the system size. I believe I also stated as having never used custom mtd before that the best option would be to possibly try for yourself at which you seem to have taken great offence and I have no intention of apologising for. Not my fault your a soft arse with a over sensitivity issue so please don't be expecting one. I also noted that having done a search on the thread the complete lack of it being mentioned (four of five times only) which for me would be an indication of not many people using the custom mtd use this rom and if they are they have enough of an understanding of what they are using and they would be best advising you as I did clearly state I had never used it. I figured obviously wrongly that trying for yourself would have been the better option and taken less effort than posting in here.

Now be as pissed as you want at me, I really don't care but don't take your frustration out on the rom's creator who I have no affiliation with so why would I know how the rom is put together? I do know but wouldn't have a clue as already stated regarding custom mtd as I have never used it? Seriously do you always get this arsey about someone asking why you hadn't just tried it for yourself?

You say you got flamed? Well in my first post to you I'd love to know where as I remembered wondering why you hadn't and suggesting you try for yourself was and is not 'flaming' in any way shape of form.

And whats with the 'Warning - Unsupported rom'? I think you mean 'Warning Shadowch31 told me to go try for myself so I cried because he is a big meanie mommy'

You'll also know having of course done your homework that this rom IS filled with support from myself which I am under no obligation to do due to it NOT being my rom and as 99% will tell you, I am more than willing to help those that are willing to help themselves.

Now really if you want to continue this pathetic attempt of playing the poor little picked on one please lets do it in pm as I'm sure no-one else wants to see this continuing.
[G1 Android Development] ralphclark:
I considered several responses but I can't afford to spend the time and effort combating such lengthy and pointless rants, and frankly your attitude is so appallingly bad that it's quite obvious any such effort would be utterly wasted anyway. Fortunately I'm done with this ROM anyway as it just doesn't meet my particular needs (no disrespect intended to the author).
[G1 Android Development] RichieDaze:
This has been mentioned before and will be in the next release. Please understand that one modification doesn't mean a new release as I am testing multiple mods at the moment.

What seems to be missing in this rom that will contempt your needs?

I designed this rom to be compatible for everyone. And, to accept multiple modifications from different modders and sources.

The only way to find out what you want, is with multiple testing as everyone on this forum does.

I can help you test if you need me too.
[G1 Android Development] ralphclark:
Hi RichieDaze it's good to see that you're around and I do appreciate the offer. But I've been through all that already with the G1 and now that I own a DHD I'm simply evaluating what's the best ROM to put on the G1 right now before I pass it on to my wife.

Good luck with it though. I will pass on the following observations:

* Firstly, it would be useful to include a mention of the correct flashing sequence for the ROM, 2708 radio kernel, the all-in-one package and the Firerat stuff

* You should test how the flashing sequence works within a range of MTD scenarios, including noting at what point FR-boot should be run.

Many people coming (you hope) from CM for instance will already have MTD set up with system partition that's too large for this ROM, and a very small cache partition perhaps.

Even for those who don't have MTD already, it's a good idea to keep all performance-sensitive apps on internal flash if you can, so there are gains to be made by keeping /system tight, minimizing /cache and maximizing the space available to /data.

In theory the optimum MTD settings for your ROM would be 70MB /system and 2MB /cache. After running FR-boot, the small cache partition is ignored and replaced by bind-mounting /cache to a location on the /data partition.

* Consider providing Superuser.apk at least on /data, I had to go and download it from Market which surprised me a bit. Can't use Titanium Backup until that's in place.

* I'm surprised that you included the Faves package, it's nice but a bit out of keeping with the minimalist theme.
[G1 Android Development] :
I see Richie has kindly offered to help you test but perhaps to ease his workload and allow him to concentrate on working on the rom perhaps you could run some test and post your findings? Thats what the XDA community is all about, testing things and posting the results for others to use as a guide as the devs are normally busy with life/rom to be testing everything themselves so we all chip in to help.

Already is included, check the zip in /data/app for 'com.noshufou.android.su-1.apk' if its not showing up then possibly try redownloading the zip as it may have been a bad download.

[G1 Android Development] santelm:
Hi guys!

Let me start by saying awesome rom! Stable and fast,however got question,is it possible, By any means to have the "H"signal on this rom?

Thxs in advance!!!
[G1 Android Development] jdc:
Interesting question. Per the specs, the phone does support it, but at the time the phone was released, along with the touch, TMo didn't have HSDPA, so I doubt the radio stack supports it.

I'd love to be wrong on this, even if the G1 doesn't have the power to really take advantage of the speed.
[G1 Android Development] santelm:
Well here is the thing ,when tryin different roms for stability,some did indeed lock on to that signal and working on them was a breeze,but after awhile the rom became unstable due to different scrips errors,looking thru ezterry rom he has a "solution"meaning a way to disable the menu unlock and enable the H signal ,so here I am trying to figure how?
[G1 Android Development] santelm:
Checking the specs on the g1 it shouldn't work but somehow it does!!!

And I'm not firerat with this kind of things ,I don't know a third of what he does!!!its sooo frustrating..
[G1 Android Development] :
Deleted: Thinking of something else.
[G1 Android Development] jdc:
Really? The Google sources have the 3G and H icons both in the code. My understanding was that the 3G is used when the phone is locked onto UMTS and H when it's using HSDPA.

I know some carriers always shows H regardless of which protocol the phone is using (which I find misleading), and I have seen some reports of phones that will flip between the 3G and H icons, depending on what the phone is using, so hearing this kind of contradicts what I have understood.

(ref: http://support.t-mobile.co.uk/discussions/index?page=forums&topic=8010387839d2fa012839559bf5007e70)
[G1 Android Development] RichieDaze:
From my understanding T-Mobile upgraded their UMTS radio band to HSDPA.

UMTS runs around 400kbps, by upgrading to HSDPA it runs around 800kbps.

Which is their upgraded 3G service.

Their so called 4G is known as HSDPA+ which in reality is 3.5G.

To achieve these speeds on the G1 would require a modified radio (I think).
[G1 Android Development] santelm:
Talking on my own experince and work,our phones do get that signal and you can tell by doing downlloads text,that the reason of mine to take on this,if you try any other rom(for example)and you will see what I'm saying...if doubt try it
[G1 Android Development] yonu:
I am sure this has been covered but I would like to find a simple fix I hope

I am averaging about 6.5hrs of charge on a brand new battery and all data disabled and the phone laying on the desk maybe 1 5min phone call in that time frame.

Any ideas would be great

Thanks,

Reg
[G1 Android Development] RichieDaze:
This rom uses a cm6 kernel which has a know usb bug. If you plug in the usb cable to your pc, you would have to reboot your phone to bypass the bug. Even though I have noticed that if you do not have a sim card and place it on airplane mode it seems to kill the battery to same way. :confused:

If need be I can post the original kernel that came with the rom, which was perfected to run limited but conservative.
[G1 Android Development] yonu:
I assume switching to the original kernel should help? and will i have to wipe data to change kernel?
[G1 Android Development] :
No you should just be able to flash it right over.
