[General Questions and Answers] Etrick:
My son follows my addiction to android and I'd like to buy him an inexpensive android tablet. Price range $100-$200. Basics necc... such as SD, wifi, rootable with some kind of following would be nice. Internet browsing, games, light apps... I know u get what you pay for but he's also eight(albeit quite savvy)and would like him to cut his teeth on something more disposable (although decent wouldn't hurt). Any ideas, links, etc appriciated. Thanks.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MusicMan374:
So I have this old g1, it's been through 5 owners and over the summer it got crunched in a recliner chair mechanism, and it stopped booting up. In short, I took it apart, determined that the slight bend in the daughter board to motherboard connector was the culprit. However, a month or so ago it started booting again, and the only 2 serious issues with it that I have found is that if you press too hard on the back, the daughter board becomes disconnected, which causes the processor to be cut off, crashing the phone, requiring a battery pull, etc etc., and also that the sd card controller no longer works. (Also for some strange reason rebooting won't actually reboot the phone, it just does this odd interlace fade to a black screen and you have to do a battery pull to even get it to turn off, only power off works)

Anywho, the issue about the daughter board connector becoming disconnected temporarily on pressure wasn't a huge issue as long as you were careful with the phone. The sd card controller wasn't an issue either until I wiped /system without knowing the sd card slot was dead.

The phone boots into fastboot and recovery, it has clockworkmod. However, I can't really flash a new rom onto it without an sd card, and I have tried every way fathomable to mount a folder in /system/ or somewhere on the nand as the sd card so I could adb push a rom and flash it, but it never worked.

I tried flashing something from fastboot, but it gave an error about the signature verification or something rather. Any suggestions for flashing through hboot/fastboot? Have I just not found the right htc signed zip yet or what? Help much appreciated. Its not a huge deal since I have a mt3g slide now but it'd still be cool to **** around with the g1 ya know? First android phone ever manufactured and its still kickin. But if its done, its done. It lead a good life, 5 owners haha.

Thanks in advance!

HCDR.Jacob Flash over any ROM Awesome Kernel 4.1 - Thanks to HCDR.Jacob and ralle.gade (+any other contributers for this)

Personally I find that, as is, the ROM is responsive enough for me, solid and reliable, I have found that with setCPU running (with standard Kernel) that I get some momentairy freezes and momentairy freezes accepting calls, just so that your aware of this... with HCDR.Jaccob 4.1 Kernel I couldn't say if the same problem exists as not tested...

This ROM, as is, has no know problems (without SetCPU running)

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reserved xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
[Wildfire Android Development] tuktukscotty:
Downloading now. I will give my views later. I have always wanted to have my3 stuff on Puzzle so............

The only real BIGGIE for me is I use MyTouchMusic on Puzzle such alot that it always makes me keep returning to Puzzle.
[Wildfire Android Development] adamsy:
Re-download before you flash am re-upping with MyTouchMusic ;)
[Wildfire Android Development] tuktukscotty:
Re-downloading now. Will report back in a little while.
[Wildfire Android Development] windywoo:
I dunno why anyone would want to keep the 3 stuff, but each to their own.
[Wildfire Android Development] tuktukscotty:
I didn't want all the three stuff, just wanted to be able to log in to My3 which is something you cannot do without having Planet 3 installed.

I have been running this rom since yesterday and not found any problems with it so far.
[Wildfire Android Development] windywoo:
What about going to www.three.co.uk with wifi turned off and then clicking My 3 Account near the top right?
[Wildfire Android Development] tuktukscotty:
There is that I suppose but it's easier if there is a direct click that you don't have to log in to each time.
[Wildfire Android Development] windywoo:
Set it as a bookmark. There shouldn't be a log in if you are accessing over 3's network.
[Wildfire Android Development] dselvey:
Is wireless tether not working in this ROM? Can anyone confirm? Ive tried it on 2 wildfires and multiple computers.

It seems to work, but it doesn't alert me to the connection and the computer has no internet despite the wireless connection being there.

Thanks!
[Wildfire Android Development] adamsy:
I will look into this...

Is anyone interested in an option to remove 3 stuff from Rom, or at least some of it?
[Wildfire Android Development] HCDR.Jacob:
The tether issue is a kernel issue.

My kernel seems to only enable tethering in froyo as well, not eclair for some reason.

If I get time I can compile you a kernel which is completely stock but with wireless tether enabled
[Wildfire Android Development] adamsy:
Thanks Jacob... :D
[Wildfire Android Development] dselvey:
That would be great jacob, thanks!
[Wildfire Android Development] dselvey:
What i would really like to see with this ROM is something very similar to the WildPuzzle Eclair 1.0.1 (this rom was missing the reboot option on the powerscreen and then reboot into recovery option) but with the 3 boot screen and maybe some of the apps and obviously android wifi tether working on one of them.

Jacob says its his kernel causing the tether issue, but im sure ive ran his kernels before on my eclair wildfire and had wifi tether working, also with the standard kernel ive not had it working recently. Wildpuzzle eclair 1.0 was the last distro i had it working on if that helps isolating the problem?

Just out of interest did front button wake work in this rom, i forgot to try it when i tried the rom.

Thanks
[Wildfire Android Development] tuktukscotty:
Wifi Tether works for me on this rom. My pc picked it up straight away and got internet page up straight from the off. I don't mess with kernels and setting cpu etc so it's not that I've done anything to make it work.
[Wildfire Android Development] dselvey:
Strange, it doesn't work for me with this ROM or Wildpuzzle Eclair 1.0.1? If its not the ROM what could it be? Any ideas anyone?
[Wildfire Android Development] adamsy:
Sure adding reboot menu is fairly straightforward thanks to the guys here at XDA... so I will add as soon as I get chance....

Prehaphs a logcat might reveal the prob?
[Wildfire Android Development] dselvey:
Logcat showed no errors, only a WebService 404 error from android tether. Not sure if thats a prob.

Infact when a computer "connects" there no log entries occur
[Wildfire Android Development] coolsamshil9:
flash

i came to know that flash only works on 2.2 version. Will this rom support flash?
[Wildfire Android Development] coolsamshil9:
customize

sorry i am a newbie, can it play flash vidoes, since i have heard its only 2.2 froyo which can run flash.
[Wildfire Android Development] coolsamshil9:
i love this rom. i unistaleed cm6, wildfire and now on this. i am on threeuk network. just needed to ask if this run flash player. i only know that flash runs on 2.2/froyo. i am keen to watch criket matches on flash internet sites so wondered?
[Wildfire Android Development] mazsuper:
try skyfire browser
[Wildfire Android Development] biggary:
nice,,,,

as im on three uk, I did miss the three widget lol, this is a super little rom, anyone else still using it
[Wildfire Android Development] :
Flash is for ARMv7 processors. Wildfire only has ARMv6, so it doesn't support features that full Flash needs to work (NEON CPU instruction set).

Sorry but running Froyo doesn't automatically give you Flash. You need right hardware as well.

MOD EDIT - Not needed if you're already on CM6.1+

Add some bacon to your G2!

Now that we have root, and our team is hard at work on getting CM running, here's a quick "bacon bits" package.

* Unified Vision/Ace kernel with overclocking and lots of goodies - https://github.com/CyanogenMod/htc-kernel-vision (oc from coolbho3000, install SetCPU to use it)

* Notification lights fix - flash speaker LED for notifications

* Set ro.secure=0

* Add Superuser from ChainsDD

* Busybox

The kernel is based on the HTC ACE (Desire HD) release which is 2.6.32.21. I merged in the necessary changes for Vision so we are up to date with the latest!

You'll need a recovery which can flash stuff signed with testkeys. Use ROM Manager to install Clockwork recovery.

BaconBits: http://android.chemlab.org/android/vision/vision-baconbits-0.3.zip

MD5SUM: afbc157e888f08bf5c12cd8b66750b70

Push to your SD card and flash it in recovery. :cool:

With interactive governor and full OC, I'm hitting 2300+ on Quadrant.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Kazan22:
Thank you for your hard work! Looking forward to CM on my G2!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ciwrl:
Flashed and good to go

EDIT: The newest Rom Manager now has G2 support, and Baconbits will be added to the CM repo, so all this can be achieved via Rom Manager

Outline of steps: http://goo.gl/1VAXf

Noob walkthrough:

* Setup Android SDK and install drivers/udev rules as needed

* S-Off your g2 http://goo.gl/Sc134

* Copy vision-baconbits-0.3.zip to your sdcard, rename it update.zip (you can do this via adb using: adb push vision-baconbits-0.3.zip /sdcard/update.zip)

* Reboot to fastboot mode (adb reboot bootloader)

* Flash the recovery http://n0rp.chemlab.org/android/vision/g2-recovery-test-keys.img : fastboot flash recovery g2-recovery-test-keys.img (if you get 'waiting for device' your phone either isnt in fastboot mode, or you will need to fix your sdk drivers)

* You should get two 'OKAY's once recovery flash is complete

* Press the power button once; then the vol down button to highlight 'recovery'; then the power button again to select the 'recovery' option

* The phone will reboot to recovery

* Press volume up+power to show the recovery menu

* Select the 'Apply:update.zip' option, using volume keys to navigate, and power button as [enter]

* Once the zip applies, reboot

If you get signature verification errors on the zip, it means your fastboot flash of recovery failed to apply, redo it

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SRT102JZ:
Thanks! Can't wait for a full CM rom
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SoTacMatt:
might just have to root tonight!

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] franky1029:
Is there a way to flash recovery from the phone itself?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] phiredrop:
Hmm... some bacon would go nicely with the HD2... ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ciwrl:
ADB push vision-baconbits.zip /sdcard/update.zip

Fastboot flash recovery g2-recovery-test-keys.img

Reboot to recovery

Vol Up+Power

Apply:update.zip

Reboot
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Neejay:
Nice! Thanks cyanogen and team.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ~~Tito~~:
Nice Mr. Cyanogen! :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Thrust_XYZ:
I'm glad I made the switch from my N1 to the G2 right when I did. The timing worked out perfect.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Mikey:
The steps are in post 1 lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Mikey:
ADB push vision-baconbits.zip /sdcard/update.zip

Your fastboot command would work if the recovery image was named recovery.img from the start ;)

If they dont rename it, it would be:

Fastboot flash recovery g2-recovery-test-keys.img

You should know how members of all ranks are with typing just what they are told or see ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] donaliar:
can someone simplify the steps..what I have to do? sorry I'm a noob at this. How do i "fastboot" and the other stuff? Help the noob!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ciwrl:
Correct, but I did that really quick and by memory so forgive me

I'll edit the post since im so high up to cyan's OP

:)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shambala001:
Put the recovery file in your sdk tools folder,reboot your phone holding volume down, select fastboot using power key, via command prompt "cd" into your tools folder, then run the command in the first post (the fastboot reco... one)

then put the bacon bits file on your sdcard, rename to update.zip, restart your phone holding the volume down button.

once in the menu on your phone use the volume keys to select recovery and hit power button to select it.

hit volume up and power at the same time to reveal the recovery menu, select the update.zip option and power to start it, when its down hit reboot.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] loomism2:
Does this bacon bits include an ability to wake the screen by pushing the trackpad? Hitting the power button to turn on the screen isn't the easiest thing.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] outZider:
Does wifi calling still work?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] theratdude64:
Thanks :)

Thanks Cyanogen! I LOVE my G2 except I tell everyone "I just sucks cause no cyanogen :(" So I now love it even more lol, can't wait till 6.1 or whatever for the G2
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] amack10:
I'm assuming u have clockwork and stuff installed soo......just download the file on the main page and put it on ur sd card. Make sure its not in any folder anytime your flashing something make sure its always just on ur sd card also known as the root of ur sd and not in any folder. Open rom manager press reboot in recovery and it will automatically boot u into recovry rather nad hboot then recovery. Now the cool thing about clockwork is you don't have to rename wutever ur flashing to update.zip you can just select flash any zip from sd and it'll let u choose as long as its on the root of ur sd. Apply the update then reboot. Once you get into flashing roms and stuff once they're available then youl have to do some wipes before you install but the dev will put all that on his op.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] delirial:
Just a heads-up. I installed this mod on top of the DESIRE Z ROM using ROM Manager. It continues to reboot to the "quietly briliant" screen over and over again. The first version worked perfectly with the stock ROM, so I figured I'd give this a shot.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] TL24:
Ok I tried that but it doesn't look like it's working? When i boot into Clockwork Recovery I select the following:

- Apply update from .zip

- Choose zip from sdcard

- selecting "CyanogenMod-htc-kernel-vision-dec4085.zip"

- then i have to confirm at the "Confirm Install? This can not be undone" and i select "Yes - Install CyanogenMod-htc-kernel-vision-dec4085"

- however it looks like it's going to install but quickly reverts back to the main Clockwork Recovery screen?

I'm lost here....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] notimethanks:
Woah. First quadrant over 2,500 I've seen.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] amack10:
Ok those are the steps so hmmm do u see a status bar at all after you push yes to install the install is very quick. Do u see any text that says failure or anything at the bottom of the screen when its not working. Also check the size of the file it should be .com little over 3mb I've done this before were it was a corrupt download and I was like ahh why won't it flash turns out it was half the file not the whole thing.

Edit...wait what file are you installing it should be called baconbits v.03.zip. just download the file in the link on the op and use that one. Don't exctract the files on the zip leave them in the zip and place it on ur sd
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gravis86:
You're trying to flash the wrong file... You need to flash vision-baconbits-0.3.zip it's the second link in the OP.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] TL24:
Great, now i feel like an idiot lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] amack10:
Lol what the guy above you said ur usin the wrong file I didn't catch it till I re read ur post:o
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] theratdude64:
Mine have gone down from ~2300 to now 1900-2000 in Quadrant now that I'm using the OC included with Bacon Bits. I set my setCPU up to 1497, what am I doing wrong? :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] TL24:
Haha sorry guys, I'm still new to the Android scene and this is my very first Android device... So I'm still learning on the fly here, but I appreciate the help and guidance!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] amack10:
Lol no prob man just keep lurking the forums and reading as much as you can. I got a g1 wen it came out and had no idea what android even was. Now I'm learning to write code.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] oldsk00lz:
Bacon Baby!!! Bring on the Cyanogen!

- Missing the CM, so this is a great start. :)

Working well. Got a 2322 Quadrant (then lowered my oc), Notification lights seem to be working (both earpiece light and the trackpad), Wifi Calling works,

Issues. MSM Video. Started delivered Messaging, New Message, Attach, Compose Video. When clicking to take picture I get an FC. Issue during Initialize. I had just take an MMS picture before trying the Video, so possible issues with previous camera client? Here is the logcat: http://pastebin.com/SmWDPbbr

Requests: Would be great to see future versions of the Notification Light enhancement be able to show a charging light as well as a notification light (override),

-oldsk00lz

(time to update my sig to bacon bits!)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rUsTyRuSs:
Is there any way to make this play nice with trackpad wake? I was using easy wake with widget locker to allow me to wake the phone with any hardware button. Since bacon bits it no longer works. I also tried to uninstall and use the script mod a few threads down but the trackpad wake doesn't seem to play nice. Now the hardware buttons wake the phone on the initial sleep, but are unresponsive on subsequent tries. (Only the actual power button unlocks) thanks in advance for any help,

Russ
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] oldsk00lz:
Looks like Cyanogen tweeted about using a new kernel based on the MT4G release. The trackpad wake may be limited to a previous kernel.

-oldsk00lz (enjoying a bit of bacon)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
Wait until your battery is low... then you'll see what I mean;) It seems the low battery/charging/new notification light are conflicting with each other. I finally extracted the stock lights.vision.so (since someone else was too sleeply to do it :p) file. Unyaffs was being a jerk tonight so... I found an old system dump and extacted the file from there. I'm gonna link it here in case anyone else wants to revert to the old notifcation led system. It goes into /system/lib/hw/ for those who didn't know...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] stevepsycho:
thank you so much for this. I have one question. Where can I find this file? "fastboot flash recovery g2-recovery-test-keys.img"
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
That's why it may be worth it to stick with old kernel. Coolbho3000 probably will fix the MAC address issue and you can flash it on top of baconbits from there. That's the beauty of root access.... True personalization;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
just use rom manager, friend. it will it flash for you. might have to run it twice and open the app on a wifi connection for some reason.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] stevepsycho:
I keep getting this error after downloading baconbits> E: Can't open /cache/recovery/command any help would be greatful.

So just to make sure, I flash bacon bits, then push this file to have the orignal just trackpad notification along with keeping baconbits right?? Not having LED doesn't bother and since its buggy still...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
Yup... that's right. Yeah, I've gotten used to the trackpad myself so its a bit redundant (buggy too)

My setcpu wat max and min at 1497MHz and Scaling Performance. Not anything I would uses day to day. 1900 to 2000 is nothing to be sad about.:D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] theratdude64:
Definitely not bad, Still WAY over the next phone on the graph, but still disapointing that it dropped. I have SetCPU setup for 1497,245 with On Demand Scaling Set on Boot, with a screen off profile, Temp >39.7* and a battery <10% profiles. Same as it was before perm root except I edited the Temperature profile to go higher.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cyanogen:
I actually get *lower* numbers on Quadrant with the performance governor. Interactive governor gives the best results, I'm not sure why yet. I hit 2400 almost every time though.
