sd-ext & paypal goodness, will retest Kindle when RC6 rolls round

Reformatted my sd ext partition and upgraded it to 3 then 4 and now all my "internal" apps are installed on it - my god does that make things faster

Paypal sent - thanks :)

Starting kindle still reboots the phone, but will test again when RC6 rolls round.

Thanks again.

jjrumph, as I'm still with the problem, what do you suggest me to do?

Use another radio? I'm with 2.22.28.25.

Reinstall Ginger Yoshi? Use another option? I installed with ccache hack.

Wait for the next version?

Regards!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jjrumph:
Well you have the newest radio., Wouldn't hurt to reflash again. Make sure you wipe several times. I had some issues in past with things that went away after reflash.

Also next release may fix it. Really hasn't been an issue from what I read so it may be something in your phone. Reflash and see what happens.

I''m assuming that your GPS worked up until this last rom?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] uvt_novice:
I realized that sometimes, when people come FROM DIFFERENT ROMs, simply doing a full wipe does not help that much, they stuck sometimes at boot. I found it out that it is useful in addition to full wipe which clears up cache, dalvik and sd-ext, to do "full format" - format system and boot. It can be done through recovery (Clockwork has option) or adb commands when in bootloader mode. Guys, don't forget to do a full backup before wiping and formating your phone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] rcsilva83:
Yes, it was working before. So I'll reflash the radio after wiping it several times, as you said. Just one noob question: can I do this (wipe and reflash radio) without SPL and ROM reflashing, just radio?

If the radio reflash doesn't work, I'll make a full format.

Thank you guys!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jjrumph:
By reflash I really meant reflash the whole rom. That may fix the GPS.

How long does the message stay? sometimes it can take a few mins for it to lock on to the satellites. Are you inside or outside when trying? you need to have a clear view of the sky. you can also open google maps and see if it can lock on.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] dextenga:
thanks for the reply.

After saying waiting for location in like 3-5 mins or more, it says "checking location availability." and thats the time it got stuck there for a long time (nothing happens).

in the MAPS application all it says is "Loading" and then it says "Network Failure, this application requires a working data connection." (does this run on gps satellites as well (which is free)?)

also, im outside (clear sunny skies.).

O.T: im only getting 27-30mb memory left on this phone. Noticed some slowness as well. Im running ADW Launcher. (just bought a new sdcard) do i need to partition it? How do i do that.. i have Amon_Ra. Also tried tweaking the cyanogenmod but my phone is restarting when i tried changing the heap size. Sorry just a noob here.

Misread release versioning - kindle happiness

I misread the release versioning and assumed 1.0RCx came before 1.0. Flashing RC5.2 resolved the app issues, particularly Kindle is now happy.

I do seem to have some issues sending and receiving SMSs - I've just tried locking the Messaging app in memory to see if that helps with receiving...

Wipe and re-flash the new RC6 release ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] cpaixao:
Yes, you can.

My phone is the same of yours, but my radio not.

Please wipe with superwipe this way: Wipe all, superwipe, power off, wipe all, superwipe again, power off, then reflash rom, radio or both. Are you using superwipe? Please answer yes, because if not, and if you're not able to use GPS even on RC4 too, you may look for technical assist.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] rcsilva83:
Hi, Carlos

I did this exact procedure and GPS Status found 1 satellite! Unfortunately, it didn't found more and couldn't provide my location.

I'm trying RC6 now and I'll perform some tests on it. If I get the same result, I'm gonna change my radio to 27.08 (same as yours).

By the way, do you use 27.08 radio for any special reason?

Thank you for maintaining this bug fix info.

Guys, I like to say thank you for maintaining this FAQ for bug fix. I have been a lurker for a while but had to say something as I see members asking questions which you guys have done a great job in explaining. They just didn't do a good job in searching. Sad. I have flashed lots of roms from winmo to andriod, from the early smartphones from 2008 to the lastest, I have flashed yoshi RC4 to the current RC6, no major problems as the solutions were suggested when bugs are reported. Just wanted to say THANKS guys for the hard work.

So wheres that flipping manual to install this rom?

I recently got this phone and I am not sure if this is what I should do, so I preffer to ask before have a bricked phone

Please correct me if I am wrong, I am 2 clicks away from trying this rom:

1.- Root with superoneclick

2.- Install Amon-ra recovery

3.- Partition sd from Amon-ra recovery 512 ext4, 64 swap and the rest fat32 (8gb class 4)

4.- Download Ohsaka-SuperWipe_v2.zip and SuperWipe.conf to the sd root

Flash Ohsaka-SuperWipe_v2.zip from amon-ra recovery and reboot. Then do it again and reboot

5.- Do all wipes avaliable in Amon-ra recovery, reboot. Then do it again and reboot

6.- Download Gingeryoshi.zip to the sd root

Flash Gingeryoshi.zip from amon-ra recovery

Doubts:

Is it important to have battery charged 100%? Should I wipe it or follow any recommendation so that it does not get affected?

When flashing a new rom, can I keep the apps in the ext3/4 partition? I dont worry about the configuration data

Wich are the settings you would recommend to optimize the htc magic 32b?

what should i use, too many unknown options for me

cc hack, keep launcher in memory (this seems very needed), ext4/ext3?, swap, JIT, vm...

Is it possible to have a 32a mt3g phone while being a Tmobile phone ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jjrumph:
Does the phone have a headphone jack at the top. Does fastboot say sapphire 32A?

If it does and say t mobile on the front, you probably have a my touch 1.2. Although it says 32a that refers to the memory of the phone and it actually uses 32b kernels> It's kind of a hybrid.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jhench1638:

Exchange email fix?

I started with Ginger Yoshi v5.2 (ext4, Zeam, 51cc) and had a problem getting Exchange emails pushed to my phone. Tried changing inbox check frequency settings, having it check every hour and still didn't really work.

Recently I started using v6.1 (ext4, Zeam, swap) and still had the problem. I looked at the battery stats today and saw that Email app was consistenly using 5% battery, so then I decided to change inbox check frequency to "never".

To my surprise I started getting every Exchange email pushed to my phone perfectly!! WTF? I won't complain, but maybe someone else has similar experience, or this fixes someone else's problem.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ddcc:
It took me a while to try the instructions that you previously mentioned, but I finally got Yoshi mod 6.1 to work. I ended up having to extract the boot.img from 5.1, and then replace the version in the 6.1 zip with that file. After that, I had to delete the certificate and manifest files from COM-INF, and then resign the entire zip with testsign.jar, and then flashed it from recovery. It does seem a little unstable; as it hard froze after a few hours of activity after the first flash and then got stuck in a boot loop, but I cleared the cache and dalvik-cache and now it seems fine.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] devrruti:
Hi, I like very much this rom, and it is my daily driver. However I want to share some bugs I have found.

I can not find Google Street View. It is installed, but the app does not show on the apps list, nor I can find any way to use from google maps

Very bothering and weird bug: sometimes I can not use the poping menus inside aplications, or even to turn the phone off (the menu to reboot, turn off... is there and works, but does not show up). Everything works, but sometimes it draws the menu and you can not scroll it, or sometimes it does not appear, but it is there and works if you press it. I have to reboot to get it all working normal again.

Hard to explain, I just want to know if someone has the same issue (they will know what I mean)

Also, I would love to see a sliding curtain more nice (the one with wifi, gps, messages...) it is very awful in plain grey. I preffer it transparent or at least black or with some image. I don't know if this can be changed, I have seen it prettier in other roms, maybe I just miss it

Thanx very much for this rom

USB tether issue

This is the best working Gingerbread ROM I'd say, but as I'm using USB tether a lot I switched to COS-DS where it works (or works again after going back to 2.6.35.10 kernel). So I guess it's a kernel related issue.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jjrumph:
Sounds like a bad download. Everything is working fine here.

I would download again then wipe throughly then flash again.

Make sure you let the phone fully sync before attempting any changes. Good idea also after it syncs to reboot again . Then make your changes or whatever you want to do.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Gordonson:
I love GingerYoshi RC 7 so far. It seems smoother than RC 6.1.

However, one problem that I've had with both is that rebooting my phone (Magic 32B) puts me in a permanent boot loop at the Ginger Yoshi screen.

The only way to repair it is to perform a battery pull, boot into recovery, wipe twice with Ohsaka Super Wipe, and freshly install it again.

It's becoming irritating to have to keep re-installing all of my apps. Is there any solution for this issue?

It seems to happen every time I power off and power on manually as well. I'm not sure if I can keep putting up with this.

Also, I've noticed that at some times the lockscreen becomes bugged and just displays the background, with no means of unlocking unless you previously had set a physical button as an alternative method.

The theme by moneymike55 and the unlock screen by TD

The theme that moneymike55 posted in the development section>GingerYoshiRC7

I installed the theme apk and the rebooted into recovery and flashed lockscreen but couldnt get the HONEYCOMB ICONS on the HOME SCREEN (the three icons : back, apps and menu icon) ......Please tell me how to get those icons. Im using the stock launcher...is this theme meant for adw launcher? And can this theme also work with LauncherPro, cause frankly i rather have LauncherPro, its my favorite just cause of its smooth scrolling. But i went with stock cause i read that LaucherPro uses a lot of ram.

And the honeycomb lockscreen is just the icon, its not like the original lock screen(you know, where you move the unlock icon out of the circle boundary.) Is it supposed to be like that. Cause all i see is the unlock icon, the sound on/off icon and the message icon are missing too.

Also I cant get the 3D style screen shift seen in the last image.

Not the sdcard ( wouldn't flash it you did.LOL) The sim card. Without a sim card google asks you to hook to a wifi network, Assuming you have one, the sign in and sync go so much faster rather than rely on a data connection which may or may not be good in your area.

Just a speedier way to do it.

Hi, just installed the ginger yoshi RC7 and it works great but huge problems (huge lag, sometimes can't receive text or pic messages) with sms, mms, and also google voice text messages as I know you guys state in read the flipping manual already that there are problems with sms and will get fixed with next release, but y'all never mentioned anything about google voice. Unless you would consider google voice a third party app but either way good job.

Also the udate notification function in yoshimod settings doesn't work as everytime i click on that setting option, it then says yoshi settings problem and gives me the option of force closing only, so then i have to force close. Also I think on my system there is a problem with the push to notification (as I am running an HTC Magic/Sapphire 32b on tmobile).
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jjrumph:
Google voice, sms and mms all work with my phone. Under the systems settings in Yoshi mod the only thing thats works is changelog for now.

Try settings in spare parts. Look up a couple posts to see what setting can be changed.Bump cpu up to at least 595 in performance settings.

Missing Shared Library

I have been running Ginger Yoshi since the first RC and have only hit a few snags along the way, but now I am unable to install a few of my favorite apps from the market or Titanium Backup. The Market error reads, "Missing Shared Library." I have hit the "Insufficient Storage" error before, but downloading again has always fixed it.

The apps in question that I have hit are Foursquare, WeReward, Tweetdeck, Wells Fargo, and the official Twitter app. I'm sure there are other apps that might hit this error, but these are my main problems. I tried installing an old .apk build of Foursquare that I had, but the installation just hangs. These all worked perfectly on RC6, but the upgrade seems to have messed with something.

Also, the livewallpaper .zip does not work for me, but it's noot nearly as important. Thank you in advance, XDA community!

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ghostnik:
Okay will do, but further testing shows that the problem for both sms and google voice occurs when someone replies back to a text message from me, whether it is via my regular sms or google voice sms. For example when someone replied back to my google voice txt message there was a 6 minute delay and what i had to do to receive the message was go into google voice and select refresh to receive the replied message. I think that these delays in google voice and the lost messages in regular sms might be due to the low amount of ram that my phone suddenly has since the ginger yoshi rom (i think the low ram might be due to the fact that i have ginger yoshi rom 7rc running internally and didn't make an ext 4/3 filesystem on sd card, which led me to decline the option when installing the rom of having an extra 60mb placed on ext. I choose no on that option b/c i had no ext on sd card and told rom installer to install internally.) Currently the phone reads when i go into applications that 62 mb are being used and i only have 11 mb free, so i think thats why messages are being lost or there is delay in time when messages are received. Do you think i should wipe and re-flash rom but b/4 that add ext 3/4 filesystem then choose add 60mb option to ext?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] TaterTot24:

Custom ringtones never work..They always play default ring.

WiFi only works 1/3 of the time, even with the correct kerning..

Text messages never work in 7.0, only the first line displays on the recipient's phone.

The phone never gets past the first splash green anytime you shut it down. Forcing you to Re-flash 7.0 again..I tried re-flashing different installations several times.. However, it never fixed that issue.
