[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
This is in part more of a theming option from my point of view .. and not in my best interest since people then watch to see exactly how long 1% drops take with the screen on and complain how fast the drop is.. thus was not very high priority particular since the current images represent 5% drops thus are fairly accurate given the calibration is frequently off by as much on any li-ion battery.. better software fakes the % a bit so it seems to span 0 to 100.. rather than 0 to 95 as is sometimes the case.

as any app killing usually causes more problems than its worth I highly recommend never trusting this feature when it is available as well.. but noted I guess.

Jit is enabled .. you can change the build.prop to disable it but this is not recommended

Home is effectively locked in ram... messaging apps are also forced in ram when a message arrives.

But effectively this locking just makes the apps a very important service (more important than normal services)

This means if you are using a very large app they will still be pushed out of memory.

So two things to remember:

1) THis was always intended to be a basic close-ish to AOSP rom for the HTC Dream.. I know some features I deemed necessarily particular for navigating on this old device, but in many places I've kept the modifications to a minimum.

2) I've not booted my htc dream in a long time, this was my primary driver from its release in December 2011, until mid January 2012 when I upgraded to the Samsung Galaxy Nexus.. That is currently on stock rooted JB running (unsurprisingly) better than the dream ever did.

The source code is all available however .. and others are welcome to work on this further or make roms with a different mix of features, AndDiSa's version of this rom is just that and I believe even addresses some of the elements you are interested in.
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
I'm still using it as my daily driver, but after getting some experiences with JB on Nexus 7, I feel I need to upgrade ;)

Do you think it's worth to buy still a Galaxy Nexus or should I wait for its successor?
[G1 Android Development] demkantor:
I hope you don't leave the g1 forum for good, you've been a great help over the years, as was ezterry. he still stops by from time to time so I hope you'll do the same. I moved on to the g2 about 8 months ago but still follow this forum and use my g1 maybe once a week to test roms and cause well I love the phone!

I can't get used to no hardware keyboard (its fine on my n7 but not for a phone) the galaxy s 4g relay is very promising in my opinion as it has a five row keyboard and an s4 chip.

I doubt ill get it and just wait for the g3 or a nexus with a qwerty.

I still love ezgingerbread, one of the best ever made for the g1 and wish I used a device that all these great g1 developers used as it is so dificult to get roms running smooth on the g1 I can just imagine what could be done with new hardware! there are only a couple talented devs on the g2 and less on the mytouch4g slide. I hope the realy pics up some talent or the nexus w/hwkp or g3 picks some up some talent. doubt I would transfer to a phone that has none being htc shows its love to the consumers by giving almost no updates and dosent want to realse all the source codes to the hardware (I understand their reasoning on both accounts but its still disapointing)

sorry for the rant, back on topic!

ezterry is right on this rom is exactly what he ment it to be, and shows what the g1 is capable of. anddisa has added some extras which is a great touch, I usually use his version of this rom when I'm running my g1. neither one needs updating but it would be nice to see those talents put together a whole new different rom for the dream! there still are developers making great stuff here but id like to see what ezterry could come up with on let's say an ics rom for the g1?

thanks again everyone!
[G1 Android Development] ElConedeTJ:
Thank You

Thank you very much for sharing part of you knowledge. And yes some where just visual stuff, I was unaware that JIT was enabled by default and the Home and messaging apps were setup that way. I will continue using this ROM to see how much more life it can give to this classic Phone. :victory:
[G1 Android Development] ElConedeTJ:
Alarm Unlocks Phone!?

BTW Why does the Alarm unlock the phone, is there any way to fix this?

Update: The draw pattern wasn't set correctly, I re-set it and the alarm no longer unlocks the phone.
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
I don't know.. it has no problem dealing with anything so if you get a good price there isn't a problem.. but it feels (as is always the case) time that a better product to be on its way out if not already out (I don't look closely enough as this fits my needs, and my revenue stream is low at the moment, so I'll wait a bit before getting an even better device)

And I have the Acer a500 tab when I desire a bigger screen.
[G1 Android Development] selfinflicted1:
+1. I also frequently visit these forums as I also came from the g1 to the g2. If I could find one in good shape I would buy it just to have it around. And it would be running the ezbread lol.
[G1 Android Development] tass0s:
Is there a way to flash or push cm 7.2 features, like the dialer and the power menu with the screenshot feature, on ezgb?
[G1 Android Development] ElConedeTJ:
No Service?

Something happened and now my phone is not getting any service :crying: It sees my provider (TELCEL) but it reads "(No service) TELCEL" I tried to restore a backup and it didn't help :confused: I'm Attaching the logcat after booting to see if anyone can see what's wrong.
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
Looking at the logs I see many ANR messages and many processes get killed, but I cannot see any message regarding phone service. There are many background services started and probably there is not enough memory to keep everything in memory. But it's only a guess ...
[G1 Android Development] frankdrey:
I saw a radio turned off error in there somewhere O_o
[G1 Android Development] ElConedeTJ:
It was my Service Provider! (I Think)

Well it sudently worked again, so I would assume that it was a problem with my number with my service provider :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] Godfrd824:
I am currently using this rom, I love all the features, but it runs slowly, sometimes the phone even reboots itself, and it almost always asks either to force stop or wait for apps, how can I alleviate these issues?
[G1 Android Development] chidori602:
Does anyone know where i can get SPL 1.33.0013?
[G1 Android Development] demkantor:
Look @ ezterrys signature
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
This is most likely due to many background services running. Unfortunately the G1 has a very limited amoutnt of memory available and almost all actual apps are becoming bigger and bigger :(
[G1 Android Development] frankdrey:
Developers are becoming lazier with more powerful hardware :/

G1 devs are the best at coding efficiently :P

Devs should be forced to develop for hardware 5 years behind, and then the programs they write will run beautifully on new hardware too :P
[G1 Android Development] chidori602:
Where? I dont see it.
[G1 Android Development] demkantor:
the search button on xda works great by the way

in his sig is even easier .... here you go .... 2708+

next time please do at least a little homework...
[G1 Android Development] chidori602:
Thanks man! Yeah I was on my mytouch earlier and couldn't see probably because of the small screen. I'm on my tablet now.
[G1 Android Development] cj chitwood:
You know, when I see that, I never see "search button". I see "Devices by OS or Manufacturer", which I see is a dropdown, but I don't parse it as such when I look at it. Then I see the "FIND YOUR DEVICE..."... but for some stupid reason I never see the big white text box with a separated magnifying glass between the other two. I feel like an idiot drilling down to the subforum level to get to a "Search this forum" button all this time...
[G1 Android Development] ElConedeTJ:
darn it...

It's no longer working again and I'm not sure if it's the phone company since I tried my wife's chip and it had the same issue. I can see the networks in the selection screen but it just won't register, I tap the TELCEL network listed and it takes a while and nothing, and sometimes I even loose the whole list! I have no idea what's going on... :confused: I'm attaching the logcat from my latest re-start to see if anyone can see anything... BTW when I'm taping the network and it says that it's trying to register it doesn't record anything in the logcat.
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
Well I can see a very heavy system load (> 11.0) and an ANR of com.google.phone ...

I may be wrong, but I would say that there are too many background processes running and due to that some apps and the phone app, too, cannot run (well).
[G1 Android Development] ElConedeTJ:
Can you let me know how to ID the background Processes in the log? to see what I can do to either uninstall or disable them? The strange thing is that this started like a week ago so maybe I installed an app or updated one that is now causing this, that is why I want to see what is running in the background and try one by one to see what helps.
[G1 Android Development] ElConedeTJ:
Must be an app or something....

I flashed ADS (doing a backup then superwipe prior) then flashed the gapps, gprs patch and zeam replacement. Booted once then rebooted. Then it registered on the network OK... So there must be an app or setting that's doing this.
[G1 Android Development] demkantor:
Try using watchdog (in market) to see what's running in the background. Won't be for sure if its conflicting but at least you can see what's running easily. or you will have to learn to read logcats. If you go to androids sdk it has some good tutorials
[G1 Android Development] ElConedeTJ:
now I'm thinking it's hardware...

I "superwiped" (twice) and flashed EZGB nothing else, and it didn't register on the network... so now it's either hardware or something outside of the ROM (if there is such a thing).

I'm attaching the logcat of the 1st boot after wiping and flashing EZGB (with nothing else). the only thing I did was wait until the screen turned of, then unlocked went in to settings and tried connecting to the TELCEL network... and nothing :crying:
[G1 Android Development] ElConedeTJ:
Guess not?

well I rebooted the phone one and it connected... rebooted once more and connected again... so my assumption that it might be a hardware issue was incorrect (hopefully). I'm attaching the logcat after the 3rd boot with only EZGB.
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
In both log cats you posted this afternoon, I cannot detect unusual things. The only difference I saw: within the first log the garbage collector is running quite often.
[G1 Android Development] ElConedeTJ:
Still no luck

I re-booted once more to make sure it still connected to the network and no luck... I've been flashing EZGB, ADS and now IcedADS and no luck... so now I'm above 75% sure it's going to be something not related to the ROM. I'm attaching the 1st and 2nd boot logcats using IcedADS
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
Sorry, but I have no clue :(

Did you already try to switch 2g/3g settings? I have no other idea.
[G1 Android Development] ElConedeTJ:
I can't even search for networks now... so I guess my phone has Alzheimer or something... it's forgetting that it's actually a phone.

Oh well... time to look for another smartphone...
[G1 Android Development] tvall:
First, I would suggest trying non ezgb based roms to be completely sure (cm7 and froyo are good ideas) then maybe try stock. If none work, its either the hardware or the network.

I'm a noob at this. AndDiSa would be able to offer more detailed and accurate advice than I can
[G1 Android Development] cj chitwood:
I'm on the outside not going through your logs. Just based on the last ten or so posts, I see you've been watching consistently decreasing performance across flashes. I think your hardware is going.
[G1 Android Development] ElConedeTJ:
Must be the hardware

I flashed Ginger Yoshi and have the same issue, so it's most likely that the Phone part of the Hardware is going or already gone....:angel:
[G1 Android Development] azrash:
Sorry for OT, but time for a new phone! The Nexus 4 is a good deal if you can get one
[G1 Android Development] Tamhvm:
This ROM... This ROM blows my mind out. It's fast and it's really well behaved. No surprise reboots ever since I installed it 3 months ago.

It lacks some utils, like the Screenshot app on the shutdown menu and some Spare Parts, but I can live without it.

I love it. The time it takes to go from lockscreen to working dialer on my Magic 32B, is just around 5 seconds, when some others make you wait at least one whole minute.

No words can express the gratitude I have towards ezterry for making this awesome ROM.
[G1 Android Development] sisterchick:
The old girl still has it!

Timex and Energizer could both take a lesson from my old G1...it keeps going and going. I've got AndDiSa's latest Iced Ginger build of EzGingerbread on my old girl and have repurposed it as a part of my entertainment center to stream Pandora into my receiver via wifi. Sounds great! The TiVo provides USB power to the G1. When not listening to music I use it as a large and very accurate clock with Night Clock and Clock Sync. An inexpensive business card holder from the office supply store makes a great stand for it.

Thanks again, EZTerry and AndDiSa!
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
Nice to hear these somebody (beside me :) ) is still using the G1 with ezGingerbread/ADS_Magpie. For me it's still the phone I am using all the day even if I notice that the time for a change is come ...
[G1 Android Development] azrash:
The only reason I have stopped using the G1 is the battery is bonked, and to import one from the states is too costly for me. It is now a paper weight but the last ROM it had was ADS based on ezGB. So thanks again for giving a good experience with my first Android phone!

Sent from my Desire Z
[G1 Android Development] hrk:
Even my battery got busted, I got a new one from Ireland or Germany, I don't remember well. The G1 is still alive, although it's a development phone now. :) Still the best qwerty keyboard. Wish HTC made a 4-4.3'' device w/ the same keyboard, I'd drop the crappy G2/Desire Z in a second.

SCRIPT ERROR WHILE INSTALLING gingerbread on tmobile google g1

[G1 Android Development] cj chitwood:
Way to resurrect a dead thread! :hi5:

And with a full verbatim quote of the longest post in the thread, to boot!

You say full beginner... well, first, you can do some research. "How to root a G1" on Google is a start, or even this forum has a sticky (if memory serves) that says how to root the G1.

Once the phone is rooted with a compatible radio installed (compat radios are listed in that bookish post you fully quoted) you should have no issues with installing the ROM via the recovery.

Some info from you could help us help you:

Recovery name and version

Exact wording from your fastboot screen so we know what radio you have and whether your G1 is the 32A or B (probably B but IIRC there were some A G1s)

Any other text the screen shows with your "script error" message

I would provide nonbroken links as I have found them before and honestly I might even have the files on my G1 still but as it's 4:30 am here I'm a bit too tired to look for them now... maybe if I remember in the later morning..... or PM me and I think the forum will notify me by email...

[G1 Android Development] amitpmistry:
Hi, thanks for the info, i have this information below if you can help me better

I am using Android System Recovery Utility using test keys

on the bootscreen(camera+power button press) it says

drea110 pvt 32B

hboot - 0.95.0000

cplid-4

radio-2.22.23.02

the script error messages i get is regarding the update script which i dont know how to modify it and install it on this through sd card.

"Cant find update script"

installation aborted.

Thats what it says.
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
As cj chitwood already said: have a look at the tutorials how to root the G1. If you have understood how to do it, install the radio and bootloader needed for EzGingerbread as described on the OP of this thread. It makes no sense trying to flash a custom ROM by the standard Android recovery, it will not work.
[G1 Android Development] cj chitwood:
Yes, it looks like you're on the stock hboot (usually called SPL or "Secondary Program Loader") and stock radio. You need to upgrade the HBoot first, and honestly the radio should be okay if it's supported by the ROM but I think I had the latest available radio on mine. Mine said "drea1000" not "drea110" like yours, but I think the important line there is "32b" so you should have no issues upgrading the hboot, radio, recovery...

Can't find files? Try e-mailing this guy:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2407470

(and that thread is only a couple months old, as opposed to years...)

Try this one for what to do with the files:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1301379

I just dropped twenty minutes on this from work. I can't go further. At this point you're on your own. The files are out there, you just have to find them. Here's a hint: Once you know the filename, google that and see what you find. For instance: dreaimg.nbh. You'll learn real quick which file host sites went down a while back and lost everything, and avoiding them will save you buku time. Or just e-mail that guy in that thread.

I don't mind looking to find the files on my old G1 if I still have them, only because I know what a PITA it can be to find a decent host, but I need you to send me a PM if that's what you want. Otherwise the forum e-mail is handled differently and goes to a folder I almost never check. Also, my time is valuable (at home, not so much at work because I do get scheduled breaks) so I'm not going to do this if you don't PM me. Even if I do, I can't guarantee I even still have the files.

If you simply cannot find a G1 file, look for a magic/sapphire file. As long as it's for the 32B magic/sapphire, it probably will work for the G1. Do the research though, I'm not responsible if you brick it.

Maybe it was closer to ten minutes. We have a filter that makes pages not load sometimes and it took a while for me to figure out why the G1 forum pages weren't loading right (the forum moved and the URL in the links was set to the forum root). But the information is already out there, you just have to look for it.

Hi i need to update my Sprint HTC G1 can i do it safely with this ROM. Thanks
[G1 Android Development] cj chitwood:
does your fastboot screen show "32B" on it?
[G1 Android Development] dreamwave:
A quirk/issue that I encountered was that the first letter in a search field is always selected (take market or google play app search as an example), so the next letter typed overwrites it. Also, could you integrate the T-mobile theme chooser from cm7?

[G1 Android Development] alex_canada:
I could try doing that tomorrow since I need to dig after my HTC Magic phone ;)
[G1 Android Development] cj chitwood:
I recall quadrant scores in the 325 range but I also want to think I neared 1000 so I'm not sure which "memory" to trust. I mean it's only been three years since I've used that phone regularly. However, seriously I know for a fact people have posted their quadrant scores in this forum if not this very thread (and I'm pretty near 100% positive I personally have posted a dozen or more) so these should be child's play to find. Just know that the quadrant dev redesigned the score calibration so the number may not mean what it used to.

As to speed, it depends on the kernel you're using with the ROM. Nearly all kernel devs post the maximum cpu speed in the announcement (first post). Most only went up to 528MHz but I was on one that allowed 618 MHz IIRC. There wasn't much noticeable difference between the two, honestly. You'll notice more difference with the right/wrong governor because that's what manages useability.

Don't worry about burnout. The chip was designed for 528, 618 isn't over that too much. Unless you literally never put the fool thing down you won't burn it up at those speeds.

However, while I think it's fantastic the Dream and Sapphire are still enjoying peoples' interests, the phones are five years old. You might do well to find an inexpensive, much faster, replacement on eBay or some such.

I would recommend the DoubleShot/myTouch 4G Slide except you likely will hate the keyboard compared to the near perfection that was the HTC Dream. And there aren't yet as many ROM options for it... :( but it is a decent replacement to the Dream.
