GoogleQuickSearchBox is the gapps one (either in the package or market)

QuickSearchBox is the open source search box in the rom.

The system wipe is just to avoid the gapps backup .. since we wanted to change gapps packages.. On your next flash of ADS it will backup the new gapps and restore them

Well except the net jni_talk.so if you installed it.. that may need to be added to the ADS script.
[G1 Android Development] hrk:
:confused:

GMail was one of the "gapps" and was moved to the market. So it's not in the gapps-*.zip file. This I can understand ("me understand simple things").

Why do two versions of QuickSearchBox exist, one in the ROM and one in the market?

Already manually pushed, keeps core-dumping. :) But now I have the new Talk, looks nicer than the old one.
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
The one in the rom is compiled from ASOP

I have no clue what is diffrent with the gapps version (the one in market) besides the search icon used for 'all'.. the resources look near the same as well

I'd give you gmail from source.. but we don't have the source code.

(Prior to this the open source one was deleted and the gapps one installed when you flashed gapps)

Well you don't need the library for talk.. just for the voice/video chat.. the problem is its not built for the ARMv6 .. so it may be using instructions our phone doesn’t support... I've not bothers.. (certainty using talk2 but no video/voice) no crashes here.. if you are having issues clear Talks data.
[G1 Android Development] hrk:
I wasn't clear enough. It keeps core-dumping when I try the video/voice chat, but other than that, it works fine. About the ARMv6... we must hope a new phone comes w/ gingerbread and an ARMv6 CPU... :(
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
... already uploaded as 20110524 ;)
[G1 Android Development] stephenju:
I have 20110523 installed. Do I need to wipe system before I update to this or can I just install over the existing one?

Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] hrk:
FWIW, AOSP one reports version 1.1, Market one reports 1.1.2.64376

@AndDiSa: I8U... ;)... downloaded it, mounting sdcard...
[G1 Android Development] jdb78:
I did a nandroid backup, fastboot erased system, re-flashed ROM and gapps and guess what? Before I rebooted the phone was a whole lot snappier. Then I saw the update, flashed it and I think that this build is also more responsive - I might be wrong but it 'feels' better. Nothing scientific here. Just my humbling opinion :) Thank you guys for all your efforts!
[G1 Android Development] jdb78:
Just do a nandroid backup before flashing but you should not need to wipe.
[G1 Android Development] ibraheeemz:
I yesterday set zram to 16 and have faced four reboots so far within 24 hours. two of them were complete reboots and I saw the G1 screen. two were those weird reboots. Screen remained black for a while with no response and then I saw boot animation. I am using latest alpha of ezGingerbread and not ADS or any else. logcat after the last reboot is here

before setting zram=16 i was not facing any reboots but the apps response was much improved with 16. Now I have set zram to 24 to see how it effects me! I am using cpu 245/595MHz with PERFORMANCE. and i dont use maps, gmail or anything. but only messaging, calls, and launcherpro, with a single widget of circle battery!!

Edit:

I was thinking if it is possible to give user the control to prioritise the applications that he wants to have in ram/zram all the time? I mean, everyone's priorities are different, some people use maps, some gmail, some gallary, camera etc...so it would be great if use himself can choose which apps to be more responsive all the time than others. This should definitely not effect the home and messaging apps in memory!
[G1 Android Development] jdb78:
Try setting your clock to 537 MHz max. - just for test reasons. Some users are happy with more or less, depends on your CPU, RAM and so on.
[G1 Android Development] ibraheeemz:
I have been using it at 556MHz. and it seems stable now :)
[G1 Android Development] ibraheeemz:
one thing I have been observing that the battery usage is not accurately shown. though the battery time is alot improved but it does not tell the time since unplugged exactly.
[G1 Android Development] jdb78:
Mine is accurate. Did you connect USB in between?
[G1 Android Development] ibraheeemz:
I always charge with USB!! don't use wall charger :(
[G1 Android Development] farmatito:
Looks like memory corruption in make. Maybe you could try a older version of make. For me version 3.81 works fine on 32bit Debian. You can find the sources at http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make/

Eventually filing a bug report to the Slackware people or at http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/make/

would be a good thing.

You can also try a ugly hack by deleting or commenting out what at a first glance seems to be the offending line at:

frameworks/base/services/camera/libcameraservice/Android.mk line 73

$(warning $(LOCAL_SHARED_LIBRARIES))

Hope this helps.
[G1 Android Development] hrk:
@AndDiSa: do you have any ETA for the inclusion of PowerWidget settings? :) In the meanwhile... any hints on how to manually change the settings to show different buttons?

@German + Spanish talking people: anybody willing to complete NoFrills translations before I let Google Translate go rampant and build offending translations in your language? ;-)
[G1 Android Development] jdb78:
Hrk: I could translate into German. Just let me know how I can help.

AndDiSa+ezTerry: after using the latest ADS_Magpie for a couple of days now (from the 25th to be precise) I can tell that it was usable at the beginning but started to lag more and more. Yesterday my phone application crashed while talking on a headset. Unfortunately I was driving my car so I could not pull any logs. It seems to me that memory handling was good with a fresh installed system but gets bad while using it. I'm close to flash 20110416-1 back to the phone.

Apps take ages to start again (settings, phone app, sms app and so on). Is there any minfree setting I could try to change? I use 16MB of zRAM actually.

EDIT: After a reboot the phone is more responsive again. I'll keep on watching this.
[G1 Android Development] SubVert:
Well, I've been trying the latest ADS builds, 23/24 and today 28, all with the updated gapps, and I have wifi issues.

I initially did an update from my previous ADS rom, then installed again after SuperWipe and did minimal setup only. Same problem, wifi doesn't stay connected.

Currently, with the full wipe and minimal setup, no apps or data restored, wifi appears stable for a while, until I do something with the device, open an app, or a menu or whatever, then wifi disconnects, and 3G starts, then wifi quickly reconnects.

I normally use Tasker, and with wifi shutting down and reconnecting constantly, it causes Tasker major problems switching back and forth from different profiles, as well as things like Market keep reporting a network error problem.

I keep rolling back to the 17/5 build, and wifi is perfectly stable on there.

I've attached a small logcat sample, wifi was dropped and reconnected towards the end of the file.
[G1 Android Development] stephenju:
I am seeing the same thing. It's really snappy on the first couple of days after a reboot. Then it gets a bit dragging. Call log and contacts takes about 5 to 10 second to come up when it was a snap second when it first booted.
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
Unfortunately at the moment I don't have any time to spend for ADS ... If you want to try to change the settings manually: The settings are read from the settings.db in /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/database. Here must be inserted an entry (expanded_widget_menu) with the configuration string.

Hint: You should find the powersetting commit from 16.04.2011 in framework base on Github
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
Yes it Beta

An update!!!

Overall I'm finding the rom quite usable Just some small notes:

If Maps is making your phone come to a halt and you are not a big fan of latitude (or think latitude is interesting but not really worth it) you can always keep maps uninstalled and use MapQuest for occasional directions. I'm going to look if older versions of maps allow some APIs to work w/o being as large of memory hogs.

Also if you feel gingerbread launcher2 is a bit sticky you may want to look at Zeam launcher:

Note I'm still looking at the wifi (post module unload) drain .. so hopefully a kernel update in next but no eta)

To Developers

Starting with this release I will be "checkpointing" every public release

To switch your repo to 20110529-1 run 'repo init -m checkpoints/beta-20110529-1.xml'

To back to the main HEAD of development: 'repo init -m default.xml'

One you confirm you name/email (real or forged) just re-sync 'repo sync -j 10

The checkpoints are just files in the manifest, so for a full list:

[G1 Android Development] roalex:
Nice work Terry :) We have 3 roms now on RM for D/S, feels a bit more alive now, doesn't it ^^
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
Yes.. but I'm curious why the "clear dalvik-cache" option seems to result in failing to flash /system

(you can uncheck it and an upgrade will be fine.. or uncheck it and say clear all userdata and the fresh install will be fine.. but if I ask rom manager to clear dalvik I seem to get stuck on boot ..

what is clockwork doing behind the scenes? I know /system fails to wipe on install if /system is mounted maybe I want to add a check for that in the updater script)
[G1 Android Development] roalex:
TBH i have no clue, i only once tested it and it worked, there's no reason you can't just add a in the script some logic to clear Dalvik cache though also could format system with run_program("/sbin/sh", "erase_image", "system"); can add it with a check for amon i suppose since you like to support both ;)
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
don't make things overly complicated:

format("yaffs2", "MTD", "system");

is the equivalent of erase image and is executed by update-binary with a statically linked mtdutils from ezgingerbread (regardless of what recovery image the end user is running)

it just has a safety measure to not allow the format if the partition is already mounted.. the fix isn't odd command lines its to check and unmount if needed. That or it just gets confused when a clean mounted and cleared version both exist.
[G1 Android Development] SubVert:
Hmm, just tried this latest ezTerry build, and I have the same problem as the recent ADS builds, my wifi keeps disconnecting and reconnecting.

Has there been a change in the wifi module or settings that may be causing this?
[G1 Android Development] creezalird:
is it connect/disconnecting while the screen on ? because maybe the setting in advanced wifi has been set to off if screen turn off
[G1 Android Development] SubVert:
No, I have it set to never sleep. I can't pinpoint exactly what's causing it. Sometimes it dies when an app is opened, particularly a 'big' app like browser or market, other times they open and wifi stays connected. Sometimes it just cycles on and off when the phone is just idle, screen on.

ADS from 17th is the last build that keeps it on and stable.
[G1 Android Development] roalex:
@formatitio

Nice, hopefully this will do :)
[G1 Android Development] farmatito:
Seems that the drain is still there 20 % in 7 hrs.

and the mmc0 rescan msgs are also still there.
[G1 Android Development] ibraheeemz:
one thing I wanted to ask, is the zeam launcher the same as that of available in market? I am using the market version in the previous build, and now flashing this beta release, so suggest if there is any difference or I should install the one from market?
[G1 Android Development] roalex:
try to also patch this up:

https://github.com/roalex/kernel-biff-testing/commit/3e6f7025178699b354e0e9fd94331f47ebb82763

maybe all this combined does the trick

else...

i guess once you start wifi you leave it on ><

wonder if that eats more battery :)
[G1 Android Development] farmatito:
Haven't applied that patch yet as it was not needed on 2.6.35.
[G1 Android Development] jdb78:
Strange thing - I do not have any heavy battery drain at all, neither using ADB nor using WLAN. I wonder what's the difference between the devices...
[G1 Android Development] roalex:
was reverted(maybe even forgotten when wlan got updated to "froyo") at some point, but i have seen similar things for BCM in .35.

@jdb78

it happens once you disable the Wifi
[G1 Android Development] jdb78:
I enable and disable WiFi several times a day and I did not experience that heavy drain here. Well..doesn't help here I guess so I'd better shut up ;)
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
Its the one from market. Just installed to system and replacing launcher 2 if you choose to install it.
[G1 Android Development] muldy:
This is weird:

Can get this to install:

https://market.android.com/details?id=ru.org.amip.ClockSync&feature=search_result

Have 223MB internal storage free, I won't install anyway... (from manage apps - settings)

Keeps saying insufficient space...

No using sd-ext.

Sd-card has at least 2gb free.

preferred install location is: "let the system decide"

Usually I got this message, and retried... and would install...

Not even from the apk file: http://amip.tools-for.net/wiki/android/clocksync
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
And cache free space?

whats it exactly say in logcat?
[G1 Android Development] ibraheeemz:
excellent work Terry!! I have been using it since a few hours and the BETA is a hell more responsive than previous releases!! Excitement continues to increase for the final version :)
[G1 Android Development] ibraheeemz:
I happened to face the same problem and what I did was: after enabling mount sd-ext from Settings> Application> Development> Attempt to mount sd-ext

I just restarted and then tried to install apps. please try this way!!

I just saw you are not using sd-ext, but perhaps you have checked the option "Attempt to mount sd-ext" if so then please un-check it, reboot and then try

I observed that by just checking the option "attempt to mount.." does not mount the sd-ext until we restart it. and if during this time we try to install an app, it cannot access sd-ext and gives above error i.e. "insufficient memory"
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
I'll add a description.. "attempts to mount sd-ext on boot if checked" or something..

(also I added some logic to clean up lost downloads on boot so that may be fixing cache issues)

Also feel free (for non-english speakers) to PM me or email on github.. or better yet provide a pull request on github translations.

Hi,

my system (64 bit Gentoo) chose to update make to 3.82 today.

Now it is no longer compiling the source with the same symptoms as at NetrixTardis.

glibc is at 2.12
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
I'd look into a debian squeeze chroot with a user with the same pid as yours.. then in there make your android build enviroment. (The same pid is so you can modify the files both in and out of the chroot.. but building will need to be in the chroot.)

That or install both versions of make and poke your PATH before building.. or patch things up so it can work with both version and give me a pull request.

Actually given squeeze has 3.81.. its likely something silly and easy to patch

--

Edit:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2010-08/msg00104.html
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
Probably that's due to the kind of apps you are running ... low memory -> services get killed -> no battery drain ;)

To be serious: up to know I also had a big drain after using wifi. Today after switching off wifi, I killed all services manually (settings -> applications -> active services) and ... afterwards there was no battery drain. So to me it seems that there is a system service not releasing a handle to the wifi.
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
Hrmm... I think I'm looking for package manager.. try putting the more complete log.. if its long pastebin.com is your friend .. *notes new layout* it used to be anyway :/ ..

Otherwise I will need to check when I'm home.. the hope is magpie will do nothing is you don't have the mount-sd ext checked..
[G1 Android Development] muldy:
I only stumbled upon this one, that is not installing, aside from this the beta is all OK.

http://pastebin.com/rm5ZPFQ7

I installed from desktop market.

I have no partitions on sdcard (only the vfat one).
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
Well if people find other apps with a problem ... let me know I'm a bit stumped..

The app in question succeeded to install with magpie enabled.. and I could then move it to the phone without problem.

Also I've installed much large apps from market without magpie enabled.. but this one failed.. so the question is what property of the app caused it to crash.

muldy: if you have the apk and still are failing to install it.. just run:

adb push ClockSync.apk /data/app/ru.org.amip.ClockSync-1.apk

then reboot.. it will be installed.

If you are missing the apk.. as its free on market pm me.
[G1 Android Development] almostthere:
Happens too in roalex's build if application default install path is selected to specific path e.g. sd-ext. If left to the system to decide on it's own doesn't occur.

Thought I'd share that as it might help
[G1 Android Development] muldy:
Ok! Thanks.

Requests/Comments

A couple of comments/request re: EZGinger Beta - 1) Can the APN settings for AT&T be included in the build? Or Plan B, where is that information stored so I could make my own flashable? I forget that I'll need that info and don't seem to have it with me when I wipe and flash a new build. Not a deal breaker but a hassle. 2) I'm not sure I'm on the right page re: the Magpie implementation in this build. I enabled mount SD-Ext in Applications/Development but left Let the Phone Decide as the install location. All but one app installed internal and left me with only 12MB of space left. Obviously, I did something wrong.
[G1 Android Development] Virgilus:
I use your rom for a month now. Et the time when i worked the best was when i didn't add space on my phone so APN were always off and i could use my phone for two days before it would go below 15% of battery. So i made a lot of space on it because almost everything was just useless on my phone, but my phone is going crazy since then...

Every time i try to use Maps, my phone just shutdown, and it takes me about one hour to reboot because my phone detects it as empty despite it's between 40% and 80%... I must admit my battery is dead: i don't know why but it inflated... Receiving a new one in couple of days and will come back on the constant reboot problem.

Edit: I laso have the problem about installing apps from the market after a fresh install. I managed to install 6 apps already but now there is no space left..... yeah right.

It's not a big problem for me now as i have exams... If you need something, please ask for it and i will provide it as soon as my exams are done.
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
ah.. right .. adding in massive apn list.xml.. that is what I forgot..

I use cyanogen as my source.. download the raw version and put in /system/etc/apns-conf.xml

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...gingerbread/prebuilt/common/etc/apns-conf.xml
[G1 Android Development] ibraheeemz:
how did you make the space free? What did you delete? I guess you might have deleted some useful files too!!
[G1 Android Development] Virgilus:
No, only apps from the market that i didn't use anymore. Btw, it happened again this morning on a fresh install of the the beta build...
[G1 Android Development] jdb78:
I had some strange experience with a 3rd party battery. Phone booted to the PIN request and did not react to touch screen any more, I could not enter my pin and pretty soon the phone rebooted. After putting in the original battery the phone worked fine again. So maybe you'd like to wait till your new battery arrives?
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
I generally set it to sd-ext default and force the few I want installed diffrently.. Also like the symlink move data2sdext feature of the new titanium to allow me to move apps with larger data use .. but letting me keep my core app data on MTD. (I'll need to implement that into the rom)

I pulled mostly from ADS magpie for the build.. some extra bits from firerat and cleanups.

At least part of it is kernel.. but I can't prove the other part is not software.. currently testing a theory based on this..

BTW if you merge this build to ADS the "trip string" is in the device trees to avoid extra bits or duplication in init.d scripts. Otherwise the merge back ought to be clean.
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
... already merged and seems to run fine. Actually merging also your latest changes ;)
[G1 Android Development] ezterry:
Update regarding Maps

I've Installed Maps 4.7.0 (and old version I had about)

Seems interactive and usable unlike 5.0+ on GB.. maybe Maps 5+ and gingerbread has become to require more power than own poor phones have. (well assuming you want to use the phone for anything else as well)
[G1 Android Development] NetrixTardis:
sorry, but that wasn't it. From more research, it is a bug in make-3.82. Fix has was submitted to upstream earlier this month. I've tested the patch, and I am sucessfully building CM.

ref: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?33125
[G1 Android Development] hrk:
Due to Terry's merge, do I need a different approach than "get latest ADS_*zip and flash it upon previous ADS_(*-1).zip"? Do I have to check the sd-ext option or will it be automatic?
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
You can flash without wipe, but first boot probably will not recognize sd-ext ...

To get it working either set the flag manually (echo "1" >/data/property/persist.sys.magpie.allow). This can be set also before first boot, or enable sd-ext mount option in settings afterwards and reboot.
[G1 Android Development] greenkabbage:
Another alternative might be the brut.all maps which stayed at 4.6 and offers tile caching.
[G1 Android Development] ibraheeemz:
and what about the brut maps? I have maps4.6.0.4686-brut. I guess it may take more memory and processing but just taking expert opinion of yours :)
[G1 Android Development] BibleBelt:
make 3.82 vs. 3.81

Thanks, I just masked make 3.82 and reverted back to make 3.81. Now the compiler is happy again - and so am I.
[G1 Android Development] AndDiSa:
Battery drain seems to be not only related to wifi, but to bluetooth, too. Yesterday I used bluetooth and after switching off I had a massive battery drain. Anybody else has noticed this behaviour, too?
[G1 Android Development] ggonsalv:
Also when it is rapidly draining the battery, the phone seems to get noticeably hot. Reminds me of a road trip (8 hrs long) using Navigation Beta (part of Google Maps)

Would flashing farmatitio's kernel improve the situation?
