Getting really bad battery life on this for some reason. I rebooted, and it seems that it might have fixed it. Using farmatito's latest kernel.
[G1 Android Development] G1Dreamers:
Notification bar

Hi Laszlo..

I stumbled upon your ROM only recently and been using it since then.:D

First thanx for such a wonderful ROM and your work.

GingerBread really slows, so was using cyanogen but it misses a lot of things which i found in your ROM.

I was hoping for some tweaks.. and it would be really good if you or anyone helps me out...

I want the notification bar like the Froyo AOSP.. n not the GingerBread.

Can anyone tell me How i do this?:confused:

The Green Gtalk icon in Notification to be replaced with the AOSP.:confused:

Thnx.
[G1 Android Development] paperheart:
Awesome rom but I'm stuck with one issue now. Tried searching but I can't find any fix to it.

Currently apps are installed in the SD ext partition but I kept getting the low on space notification. Internal storage seems to be running low but not ext.

Anyone knows how to fix this?
[G1 Android Development] kanek06:
What? I don't get it
[G1 Android Development] azrash:
np :)

so are you saying that sd-ext storage is not used? if it is not, then you have to move the apps to sd-ext maunnaly at 'manage applications'

but if that is not the case, you have to understand that all apps data are stored internally, apks can be internal or sd-ext, so it might be because of too many apps installed. you can get around this issue by either using a custom mtd, or sending the apps' data to sd-ext using firerat's all in one patch. hope it helps

which farmatito's kernel are you using? there are two version, BFS and non BFS one. try to flash the non BFS kernel.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
yoo azrash thanks a lot man i checked on swap and lock home in memory my phone is working great now i owe you one man haha
[G1 Android Development] azrash:
dont check on swap! haha it'll deteriorate your sd card over time. for fast g1, i recommend no swap and no cc(compcache). if you really need extra ram, then cc is a much better choice than swap
[G1 Android Development] ZaneChua:
Been trying the no ext4 partition.Seems worse for me.
[G1 Android Development] ldrifta:
ooo haha ailright thanks lol im flashin a diff rom at the moment but if i go back to lazlo ill do that! thanks agin

Is this rom smooth enough to runsmoothly for days without an reboot, cuz some roms tend to become REALLY slow after a day or two without reboot.

I understand where ur commin from and 2.3 roms are like that right now.. before it wa sense ui. U never know the real truth unless u try it out. Froyo roms are perfect for the g1.

stop using CC or swap

the kernels are totally screwed when it comes to swap management and Android

How to remove genie widget and browser

I don;t like the stock browser and the genie widget..

How to remove them?
[G1 Android Development] creezalird:
easiest way using app like titanium backup pro

or manually using root explorer
[G1 Android Development] Effdee:
physical memory fills up

before Android gets a chance to suspend (kill) an app it is put into swap

physical memory fills some more

Android needs to suspend (kill) apps

Android decides to suspend app which is in swap

it swaps app tp physical and suspends it

it then swaps back anything it swapped to swap to physical

round and round you go

swap was better when it was practically invisible, the patches to improve swap use on Android only made it worse
[G1 Android Development] tom0769:
From a windows plattform with adb installed you can do this to properly remove system apps:

adb remount

adb shell rm -f /system/app/Browser.apk

adb shell pm uninstall com.android.browser

adb shell rm -f /system/app/GenieWidget.apk

adb shell pm uninstall com.google.android.apps.genie.geniewidget

If you'd like to remove more system apps, you can do

adb shell pm list packages -f

to identify all apk's with their package names.

When I install another/new rom I simply run a batch to do this automatically.

Well you can call this the harder way;)
[G1 Android Development] Maxamillion:
But I only use cc.

Cuz I used swap before, but my experience with it was horrible so I just use cc now.
[G1 Android Development] azrash:
this rom is light enough, i am not using any cc or swap as the available ram are enough for me. try without any swap/cc first. disable unnecessary apps at startup and see how it goes. if you still need cc, go ahead. and yes this rom is very stable, read a few pages before to see what others have said, and just try it. you can use switchrom to change roms easily

Can someone link me the Default/stock froyo theme?

I love this rom, but i want the stock original theme like this

I just like the original white bar ontop and everything default/stock.

Thanks.

[G1 Android Development] Gabiru:
It's a great ROM and it seems to be working fast and smooth. But you really should add to the instructions that the .zip for the skins should be added to the folder root/AndroidThemes or you (at least, I) keep getting error messages the likes of 'The theme you selected is invalid because the theme control file could be missing, or is not correctly written.' Took me half an hour on google to find out what the problem was...

Other then that, great job, thx a bunch :)
[G1 Android Development] tom0769:
Just an update to that:

I was trying out some things to make my installation of laszlo's rom a little more lean/lightweight.

What I found out (of course in forums here on xda) is that in general there is no need for using taskkiller or memorymanager, since froyo has its own.

I use the following script to change the minfree settings and it seems to work fine. So for me there's no more need for apps like auto memory manager or task killer. They only consume additional system resources (ram/cpu) for keeping their services running.

#!/system/bin/sh
# Values are given in 4k units!
# Foreground App, Visible App, Secondary Server, Hidden App, Content Provider, Empty App
echo "2048,3072,5120,7680,10192,25600" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree

I use GscriptLite to run the script after each reboot.

Surely it could be implemented in the installation script, but maybe another user want's to try other values.

For me the above values work very well, but it depends on the rom setup.

Edit:

See attached a boot.img with my new optimized minfree settings (1536,2048,4096,6144,7168,10240) and further sd-ext entries stripped out of init.rc.

Unzip it, put it to your sdcard and flash it like this

flash_image boot /sdcard/boot.img
[G1 Android Development] ExDr:
Hi,

I've come to the same conclusion ) But I would like there was a script that started afterboot automaticaly. Also I wish renice script for phone was added (to decrease oom value for com.android.phone up to -17). Script for subsequent renice of phone would be useful too...

But unfortunately Im not able to use linux syntaxis enough :(

Is there someone who solved the language issue in this rom??

I really like this rom because it is stable and smooth, and fast~!!

I think it is the best rom I have so far~!!

But, I really want to add Korean language in this rom because I could not read any korean, and the titles of music files showed with broken words...

Please help me to enjoy this rom more, and I tried many solutions that were provided from other users, but I still have this problem...

Thank you so much guys, and have an awesome day~!!

God bless you~!!

Fast and Stable but...

Great Rom!!! fast, stable, smooth..great for 32b MyTouch3g..

I tried ginger yoshi...but MyTouch3g is way too slow for it...sticking with froyo.

the only problem with Laszlo's is that unlike other Roms, Laszlo decided to only install handful of languages..which is fine and makes the rom light(?), but I need to view asian characters.. I have asian apps... my locales is English and I don't need to change that.. but I need it to support display asian characters. ( they are shown in boxes)

I tried to flash Font package but that doesn't help(droidsans*,droidserif*)

If anyone out there know how to do this... please direct me how to insert/flash all languages just like in other Roms!!!!!

All I need is the language supports nothing else! Laszlo Rom ROCKS!!!

Thank you~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!!!!!

I love this rom :)

But How can I use Stock Theme ?

Do you mean stock Android AOSP or stock Froyo by Laszlo?

You can install the stock Android theme from here: www.sisterbird.com/android-themes and I believe the stock Laszlo theme is in the OP.

Hello all,

I need help with this ROM. I have just recently installed this Rom, and everything seems to be working fine except for sd-ext. I am trying to move some apps from phone to sd-ext but it keeps saying memory is full. I have over 200 megs of memory left on ext4.

Also with my internal memory, i have only 15 megs left, how can I increase that?

Thanks for your help.

apps in internal memory would load faster than the apps in sd-ext, hence custom mtd is useful as it allows you to repartition your internal memory so that you have more space to install apps in internal memory

Thing is, i have no idea how to partition it with the script but i'll figure it out when i'm free. Don't think i need it though. I don't really install much. Sometimes the "install" instructions aren't updated too. -_-

looking for guidance

I am new to android. i have UK Tmobile G1 and I have downgraded it to RC7. IT IS STILL NOT ROOTED. It is SIM locked aswell. My current SIM does not allow data connection but I am hoping to get this bit sorted soon. My phone has 8GB card which i have formatted to FAT32. I do not have a card reader. My PC is running Vista 32bit.

I have been reading (a lot, including most of the guides in sticky posts) to make sense as I want to install this ROM but I am struggling as most 'guides' are outdated (e.g. using old versions of spl, recovery ect.) or links to files required being dead. Also a lot of stuff/guides are for US G1.

I will appreciate if somebody can guide me in this process.

EDIT: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=HTC_Dream:_Rooting Since you said you're on RC7. Just pay attention to the rooting process and Amon Ra Recovery. Ignore the rest.

Get Amon_RA Recovery 1.7.

Flash the latest spl's from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=831139

SPL 1.33.0013d and either one of the radios.

Download the .zip from here, do all the wipes in the Amon Ra Recovery and just flash the zip via recovery.

That should be it. Do post if you need more detailed instructions after flashing a recovery. I missed anything anyone?

Very fast, and all the features of Froyo as well.

Does anyone know how to change the time and date to being black?

For the kernel, do a nandroid backup first. Go to the link in my signature, download the standard nonBFS version for froyo, and flash it in recovery

with the newer radio, the extra ram is sufficient for me. Swap degrades your sdcard over time, if you really need more ram, go for cc instead ;)
