I meant if hrk is having wired errors best to make sure no overclock or under clock. (uninstalling is easier to be sure that nothing strange is happening)

And yes the last kernel behaves faster in quadrant then the previous one at the same clock speeds as the previous kernel)

If your phone is stable however underclocking is worth it for the power savings. I'm still running at 537/128.. many to avoid the max voltage are using 480/128.
[G1 Android Development] hrk:
Sorry for the delay in the answer. I'm not using SetCPU but my own No-frills CPU Control. However, I haven't been using it in the past few days to be sure that it wasn't causing any issues whatsoever. It even has a "safety valve" so that it won't apply settings at boot if the previous shutdown wasn't clean.

To make it short, the multiple reboots issues I (have) had are not tied to overclocking/underclocking. Does this information make the logcats more meaningful? Anything I could do to help? I have seen that I can easily reproduce an istantaneous reboot if I turn USB-mounting while attached to my workplace notebook (where I updated the USB driver just recently... damned be me and google!)
[G1 Android Development] kadajawi:
Sorry that it took me so long to test and answer, it seems like WiFi works since the new update (also installed the new kernel). Wohooo. Thanks!

(I have to admit, since last time my Android has been lying in the corner, crying. Or enjoying its holidays. :D I really wonder if Android can keep its lead, today you can buy a WP7 phone for 140 Euro...)
[G1 Android Development] tom0769:
I notice a higher battery drain with kernel v1.5 compared to v1.4.

Settings are absolutely the same.

Is it recommended to wipe battery stats after full load?
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
If you are having a reboot with USB mounting make sure you don't have ext mounted.. If not you can get the last kmsg of that operation and I need to know if it happened on the prior kernel.

As for rebooting on boot the only headache I usually have is when maps 5.x is being used. I think that app currently requires a > 18m ram dedicated at all times even if in the background. The service never stops.. it slows the phone.. and its non-interactive when opened on our old dreams.. until the phone just locks up.. Really use an older maps 4.x

(I wonder if its in part maps is assuming we have a stronger phone because we have gingerbread.. anyone know how maps 5.x works on froyo?)

You understand that if I was to release a v1.6 kernel today .. and all I did was change the version string (ie. Only the .config change no code change). .. I'm sure I'd get reports that it was faster, slower, drained more. Drained less, won't boot, as compaired to the previous kernel with the same settings.
[G1 Android Development] hrk:
I don't understand why I need to have sd-ext not mounted to get the last_kmsg. (But it really isn't an option, as I wouldn't have the space for all the apps I have).

I have Maps 5.7 (now), I've tried MapQuest but it behaves even slower than Maps. :confused:

A Gingerbread update was releaed as OTA for LG Optimus One which has more or less the same specs as our Dream. I'm trying to get my hands on one (at least to check if it comes with GTalk 1.3).
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
There are too many odd cases for me to support at this moment mounting the sdcard while the system has ed-ext mounted.. in future this may change but logic is needed for it.

Maps I find very bad performence with maps 5+ use 4.x such as on the links I just added to the second post.

There are GPS updates and fixes in the pipe but I don't have clear debugging data to say if they will help or not.
[G1 Android Development] Cokxx:
Hey Ezterry you built the best and smoothest gingerbread rom I ever seen and I would like to thank you very very much for that!

But I have a favor to ask you: Could you please build in any settings in the taskbar like for example on the latest desire hd sense rom or CM7?:rolleyes: And theme chooser would be great too!:D

I would do it on my own but I dont know how :confused::confused::confused:
[G1 Android Development] hrk:
Now I understand: you were talking about the sdcard mounting istananeous reboot. I somehow got you were referring to the whole reboot-frenzy thing. Now it makes sense. :)

Anyway, I just mounted successfully the sdcard while on OSX. I guess the USB driver update didn't work out so well on Windows XP... I'll blame it as the culprit.

I'll wait for them. Some days I can get a clear fix in no time, some days I can't get a clear fix at all... the real pain is when the phone reboots itself while driving under navigation :).... "And now.... where?!?!"

TY for your work.
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
Well as far as getting a lock goes: the issue tracker has an issue regarding if you disable gps after boot and re-enable it then you won't get a lock.. I usually just leave gps enables and make sure nothing actually uses it when I don't want it to.. thus didn't notice.. but I think I confirmed the bugs existance.

The reboots are usually related to bad xtra data sent to the gps system it seems .. a coffeshop portal page is a good way to trigger this but other hickups seem to happen as well.

As for the crashes on boot .. that seems related to data issues and gps bugs.. while on the road I'm not as sure .. the xtra data really ought to only be loaded on boot or the first time gps is loaded.. not randomly mid trip
[G1 Android Development] hrk:
Yup, that's what I do myself. I saw that when no apps use it, GPS doesn't eat battery. It's always enabled.

If I remember correctly, mid-trip reboots happened when something else occurred (i.e.: email received + sms received, still waiting in the notification bar and then.... a call comes in!... 3...2...1... reboot!)
[G1 Android Development] 4qu4rius:
I confirm this. A phone call during an CPU-intensive or memory intensive gps or web app is a good way to have a soft or hard reboot. I would have thought Android was capable to kill the Navigation app quickly to allow for the phone app to launch, but it seems it's not as simple as that.
[G1 Android Development] Poppu:
I confirm it too. I can have 2 or 3 reboots on a 500kms trip, but most of the time it's when something else happens. I just guess the other times too, but I don't see it. Up to know I was blaming the lack of RAM or CPU overheating when overloaded... Thing is I don't really read my last_krnl when driving ;)

And since the last versions of GMaps, another behaviour occurs : the GUI is freezing, but the service itself keeps running (vocal informations, possible to swap application, etc...). And if you try to use the GUI (menu button, or touching the screen) and choose "force close" on the "application not responding" window, it kills only the GUI. i.e. after a few seconds the navigation notification appears on the bar, and if you select it the GUI will reload itself and works fine... So I guess GPS is not involved in this problem.
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
Fokes that keep indicating crashes, regardless of the trigger I am not supporting maps 5.0+ with this rom at this point in time.. its not behaving in low memory and I too get too many crashes any time I so much as think of installing it. In part this looks like a leak of a kind .. 2 services require eachother preventing either from compleating. But this is a google app and there is not much I can do.

Maps 4.7 in the second post works fine for most needs, I understand the desire for more caching but its better behaved overall.

Its the version you had when you just installed a rom such as MT3G-test3.

If you are still getting many crashes: in the case of soft crashes its important to make sure no excess services are running, the respawning of services in low memory is a bit sub-optimal (I think raising minfree some more may help)

Otherwise if its an actual reboot (phone vibrates and returns to the splash) check last_kmsg at the end of your trip (don't worry if you miss ones in between its trends that are important) if its an arm9 crash hopefully its one of the gps bugs I'm looking at.. if its something else more investigation is needed.
[G1 Android Development] sisterchick:
Thank you!

Ezterry and Andisa -

Just wanted to say thanks. Installed a slimmed down version of Andisa's 06July11 build with the new kernel and the Galaxy power widget and it is running very well. Quandrant score is around 340 and typically have 40 MB free RAM. I removed music, voice apps, ringtones, etc and my system fits into my 75Mb MTD partition with room to spare. I'm not using apps to ext or SD.

A no frills build is the only way to go on my old G1, but I did miss three things from CM: the power widget, menu unlock and onscreen buttons for answering the phone. I've got them all now. For the menu unlock, this old app works fine: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=676514. For onscreen answer/ignore buttons, I'm using Easy Answer Button from the market.

Again, thanks for all the time and effort you put into this project.
[G1 Android Development] roalex:
I looked on my maps archive and found Google Maps 4.7.0 by ownhere, basically he took off Brut, so all the usual feature, you guys should check it out.

maps4.7.0-ownhere.apk
[G1 Android Development] marquimsp:
Any chance of adding Brazilian Portuguese pt_BR to the langpack? :D

Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] jdb78:
Thanks for the latest changes, ADS runs very well ATM. I got one issue to report though. The 2G/3G toggle button in the powerbar widget doesn't seem to work at all. GPS, brightness and WLAN work flawlessly. But just a minor thing, I am so happy with the latest ROM. :-)
[G1 Android Development] xda<3:
WOW! I must say I'm impressed! This ROM is SO FAST! As fast as cyanogenmod 6 for that matter. GOOD JOB! Just don't really like the search bar.. can't we have the new one that is used in cyanogenmod? Is this ROM using overclock or something? Hopefully not.. Don't like bad battery life. I'm pretty picky regarding that matter. ;)
[G1 Android Development] Maxamillion:
no, but ezGingerbread is one of the sources of COS-DS
[G1 Android Development] xda<3:
yeah.. too bad you didn't respond to my edited comment.. lol. Do you have problems with the battery life?
[G1 Android Development] Maxamillion:
[QUOTE=xda

Overall no not really,but it really depends on which kernel you use and how you use your phone.
[G1 Android Development] vermaekansh:
I am currently on COS DS 3rd july build and running with ezgb 2636 1.5 kernel

and feels lot of battery drain.
[G1 Android Development] roalex:
COS is build with Terry's kernel anyway :)
[G1 Android Development] vermaekansh:
but still i just tried to flast the stand alone anyway :)...

did u feel the same issue (battery drain)..shud i get back to 1.4
[G1 Android Development] tom0769:
Lately I flashed ezTerry's kernel v1.5 o another gb rom and noticed a higher drain compared to kernel v1.4.

Meanwhile I found out that this was because of poor radion reception.

I was on a business trip right after flashing v1.5 kernel.

In that area I had very bad radio reception which was definately the cause of the higher battery drain.

So my question here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15426560&postcount=2555 was definately overhasty:o

Sorry for that!

Currently I'm testing COS-DS latest (which has the v1.5 kernel) and battery behaves absolutely normal while speed of rom is very good.
[G1 Android Development] xda<3:
Yeah, I'm going to test out the battery life for this ROM today. Hopefully it will be good! I text alot and use the internet for browsing. Usually with CM6 I could get 15 hours or more with heavy texting and heavy browser usage. Hopefully I will be able to get similar if not better battery life with this ROM, because I have confidence in ezterry. ;)

Thanks for this cool ROM

Developers And Translators

Hi All,

As the coder minded set of you may realize I'm working on a larger than usual release.. bit slow getting all the edges out and I have a bit more features to iron out before pushing a build.

However since we know some advance users are around.. those building from source are welcome to let me know if something is painfully wrong.

Those Not building from source.. well I need some help from those more versed in multiple languages than myself to help translate some of the new components.

1) Paste this: http://pastebin.com/ZL8uvHBj into a text editor/work/xda PM

2) Put the language you are translating it to in at the top..

3) Translate the contents of the XML tags as indicated

4) Send it to me.. PM, Email

If you are also a coder used to translating apks you can send me pull requests on github.. but if not don't worry get me the translation adding them to the codebase is the easy part.
[G1 Android Development] 4qu4rius:
I'm doing the french translation right now.

in several instances in your xml file, the xxx_option_on and xxx_option_off strings are the same in English. Do you confirm that it's just a copy/paste mistake and that I should translate as "Option xxx is ON" and "Option xxx is OFF" ?

Thanks !

EDIT:

I'm not sure what the Expanded View Widget will look like, so what I'm writing could be a bit off. Do you have a screenshot or two available that could help me do a better job ? If it's like the CyanogenMod PowerWidget, then fine, I'm on it.

EDIT2: email sent your way.
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
There are two types of bloat (and I find few understand the diffrence)

1) active bloat - uses system resources and ram frequently or constantly even if not in use

2) storage bloat - eats space on /system

Any apk may be one, the othre, or both

While the lack of storage space on /system makes us keep the second group in mind.. its the first group I'm most concerned with. Particuarly if it runs on a fresh install without user control to turn it off.

(And for those striping down a rom of apks that are only in the secong group you do not get a speed benifit unless you use the space for something.. be it using customMTD to provide mode /data to install other apps to or moving a more used apk to /system .. just removing things like cmwallpapers to say look at the free space in /system just gives you less wallpapers to look at when board.)

I mention this because half if not more of the "crap" the carriers give are just eating storage unless you are using them.. and if you have a stock rom its better to leave it then modify /system.. if you are rooting and don't care for ota updates by all means swap with more useful things.
[G1 Android Development] fonsigno:
hy guys i have problem to install thesemalpha . i have htc magic 32a
[G1 Android Development] bypass23:
You won't be able to use the nightly builds posted in the OP

BUT

There is still 2 solutions for you I guess :

Some members did ask me last week for a 32A version, I've been using pershoot's kernels mainly myself so I did repackage one but it is not based from lastest nightbuild but from 20101222-1 build. There is no SPL check in the installer script check this post

Firerat posted a build with AutoKernel and there is a 32A kernel included. There is a SPL check in the installer script so it will check for v1.33.xxx you can spoof it or remove the SPL check as instructions are linked in the previous post above. This build has everything but the internet calling that was recently added to the repo... basicly the lastest nightbuild with some nice extras ! (ezterry is reviewing the code and it looks promising) Magpie really is something awesome for limited hardware devices. Props to firerat on that I was using it with CM before and it all went drama in cm forums lol :confused: Thanks again to firefrat I really think his mods are clearly in the direction ezterry see it : lightweight aosp 2.3.1 so check his post really nice work !

I'm compiling atm with updated repo (fix reboot menu and add VOIP for 3G aswell - pushing 2 xml perm files will only let you do sip calls on wifi) + firerat mods for magpie + pershoot's kernel... I could just add AutoKernel aswell but I'm checking other issues (video playback/gps) matter of time :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] HyeProfile:
Does anyone know why video playback and GPS don't work?
[G1 Android Development] farmatito:
Attached a anykernel zip of 2.6.35.10 + BFS + minor fixes

for 32b and 2708 radio for testing. It's my first anykernel

zip so please have mercy, nonetheless I've tested it on my

G1 and it booted and works fine.

NO WARRANTY, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Enjoy.

PS: for the applied patches and config used see my previous posts.
[G1 Android Development] bypass23:
I'm looking into GPS atm, weird thing is enabling it in settings doesn't spit out anything in logcat... nothing happens gps wise localisation is purely gsm based.

gps is working on nexus 1 with aosp 2.3.1 but it needed edits I think, waiting for replies :)

As for video playback I haven't checked yet but mediaserver simply crash :

01-05 16:57:24.115: INFO/DEBUG(144): pid: 1660, tid: 2799 >>> /system/bin/mediaserver <<<

01-05 16:57:24.105: INFO/DEBUG(144): Build fingerprint: 'unknown'
01-05 16:57:24.115: INFO/DEBUG(144): signal 11 (SIGSEGV), code 1 (SEGV_MAPERR), fault addr deadbaad

It may be easier to fix video but im not sure, gps seems harder to me atm since it doesnt spit out any errors when enabling and android still complains gps is not enabled but it is...

That's what I know atm I guess :o
[G1 Android Development] farmatito:
I hacked a little on gps in the last days without result.

Got some output when forcing the build to enable

gingerbread/hardware/qcom/gps/loc_api

in libhardware_legacy. Don't recall how i did, but was not difficult, maybe enabling:

BOARD_VENDOR_QCOM_GPS_LOC_API_HARDWARE

BOARD_VENDOR_QCOM_GPS_LOC_API_AMSS_VERSION

in some BoardConfig file.

In logcat it seemed to try to enable gps and get

agps from the internet but was unable to talk to the hardware

(complaining that some /dev/oncrpc/XXXXXX:XXXXXX was not there, so I suspect it was trying to speak to the wrong address

of /dev/oncrpc as there where other addresses but i was unable to guess the right one).

In the end I reverted everything as my repo was already badly messed up and unable to sync.

Hope this helps.

[G1 Android Development] jeffakajeff:
I have a Mytouch 1.2, and I can get this rom to boot up, without changing kernels, but it just keeps rebooting itself over and over. Logs does not show anything abnormal either, so not sure what the issue is.

If it is a radio issue, (I did not upgrade) What do I need to change in the source to be able to boot this up?
[G1 Android Development] bypass23:
if it reboots before android splash you need to flash a proper kernel after flashing the night build.

If you dont get to android boot animation your kernel failed to boot
[G1 Android Development] bypass23:
simply flash pershoot proper kernel after flashing the nightie ... It should boot :)
[G1 Android Development] sada23:
I flashe pershoot kernel for Dream 32b boot-cm_2635.9_ds_32b_radio2708-oc-uv-xtra-ram-fp-120810 and the nightly. It seems I am going in a loop. How long does it take to boot up the first time?

I have Radio: 2.22.27.08 SPL: 1.33.0013d
[G1 Android Development] Ohsaka:
I'm just patiently waiting for the first decent dual core phone to be released.

CPU: dual core

RAM: >512MB

microSD slot: required

Front facing camera: required

LED camera flash: required

LED notifications: required

NFC: not required

Is that really too much to ask for???

I got one wife, two kids, and three mortgages. I cant afford to be buying a new phone every year...
[G1 Android Development] jeffakajeff:
Unfortunately, That does not seem to work. When I flash the proper kernel for my phone, It does not boot up at all. I Know I am flashing the correct kernel, since it boots up any other Rom I try.

I am getting passed the splash screen with the kernel included, it makes it to the actual "Home Screen" sometimes, but it just reboots itself. The logs show nothing unusual. Next time I try to load it up, Ill actually save some and post them up.
[G1 Android Development] soub31:
well it would flash but progress bar on the gingerbread rom never moved. kernel flashed successfully as well but just stays at splash screen.

[G1 Android Development] Ohsaka:
Tested install of "FR-110105-Magpie_GingerB-DS-AutoKernel_S.zip".

No errors noticed in boot log. http://pastebin.com/N4mWHqk3

Installed "update_bypass_mod-signed.zip".

Set install location to sd-ext, installed random app from market, and it installed to /sd-ext/app with no errors. I updated Youtube app and it remained in the /data/app/ directory which looks good to me also.

Would love for this to progress to the daily driver level! Let me know if there is any specific testing you would like done.

FYI, Gmail doesn't work as noted earlier in thread. Here is the error logcat: http://pastebin.com/XwQwS0f8
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
yeap, updates will install to the currently installed location regardless of your default

which is the way it should be.

It _might_ create a little confusion if an app was removed by simply deleting it, as its details will remain in /data/system/packages.xml

regards testing, I'm open :)

there are some things I know about

paid ( or apps with fwdlock ( /*/app-private ) can't be moved

annoyingly its popping up with the no space error, it should be copy protected error

to get round that

su
chmod 666 /< sd-ext or data > /app-private/<apk name>
pm install -r -l [ -e / -f ] /< sd-ext or data > /app-private/<apk name>

e.g. this moves myPlayer from sd-ext to data

su
chmod 666 /sd-ext/app-private/sns.myPlayer-1.apk
pm install -r -l -f /sd-ext/app-private/sns.myPlayer-1.apk

system apps

move button is not disabled for system apps

( but at least the error pop up is correct )

No work around required ( I'll tidy that up later )

Todo

add default install location to the UI

In Magpie CM 6.1 this was in CMParts, simply because it was already there

tbh I think it might make more sense to add it to normal settings, probably in the ManageApplications section

currently menu will bring up sort by size button

highlight sd-ext / fat in On SD card

happy accident that sd-ext apps show in that, they don't in CM6.1

add sd-ext to storage 'settings'

add sd-ext to the sexy storage graph

anyone want to add anything?

Just got back from a Hoiday, been reading CM Magpie to findout the BS over kicking FR out - wOwZers! Lame!

Then stumbled across this thread, wOw again - sick progress.

Been running FRs Magpie GB - very nice, great work EZ & FR, props!

However I think I am missing the nice customisations that comes with CM, stuff like

- editing desktop screens (i only use 3 screens)

- customisable notification power bar

- lock in memory stuff

- also really like CM's personal settings for Input & Appearance etc.

Saying that, I think if I plant ADW over this GB then I will gain a certain portion of customisation.

Will this GB for Dream receive the nice 3D App Tray & the very pleasant Sleep Phone Graphic (similar to a CRT turn off effect) which features on the Nexus S 2.3?

Quite incredible how this has come so swiftly, again props to the devs on this one.
