Sleeepy as I stated 2-3 posts above I tried using firerat's MTD.

First installed GBcronos to figure out partition size

then wipe -> firerat's recovery 1.5.8 mtd.zip -> gb cronos -> boot patch by firerat.

I get 20-30mins (And I dont wanna wait any longer) hang on htc magic screen (the first one).

Hope You can point me in the right direction since you figured it out. Cheers.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Sleeepy2:
oops sorry, was using my phone so I missed that part.

The only thing that I can think of is get a logcat while it is trying to boot and post it.

I am not very good at reading them but I can take a look and maybe someone smarter than me will have another suggestion.

I'm running 1.95 (Thanks to Denis at androidbugle.com for suggesting it) and I love it, but the only issue I'm having at the moment is that it won't connect to my wifi (seems to connect to neighbour's open network no problem as long as I'm in range).

Cycles through "Scanning..." "Connecting..." "Disconnected" over and over.

Any thoughts?

feeyo upload a patch.(cronos 2.0.1)

can you upload it?

thanks in advance giant!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] svpb:
About the wifi , try clearing your key, it happened to me,

Or remove and recreate the connection
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xguciox:
Has anyone got crt screen off animation.:confused:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Here's the patch Feeyo released, updated so it's compatible with our device. You can flash it from recovery over v2.0.0 with no wipe.

http://rapidshare.com/files/456817834/GBRider_Cronos_v200_P1.zip

It seems to be working fine.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mykail:
dude! seriously? Stop asking about updates - do it yourself if you want it so bad...otherwise just be dependent and wait.

I bet Giant_Rider knows what's goin' on with updates. Remember - it's more like a hobby rather then a real job.

Grow up.

Death In Sleep last night after upgrading to 2.0. Phone wouldn't wake up until I pulled the battery, alarm didn't go off either :(

PS. After restarting I looked at /proc/last_kmsg, but there was nothing of interest there - just the usual messages of the phone going to sleep at the end.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alex_canada:
Is any of you having an issue with USB connect/mount on this ROM?

I installed 2.0 and 2.1 patch after full wipe and although I have checking out options in Applications/Development for USB debugging/notifications...it does NOT work.

...all this time the computer is saying "Unrecognized USB device" and phone is charging the batter.

Same thing happens with the kernel inside ROM and latest rps13's 710Mhz.

Any ideas?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Mr.H-DK:
Works here with 2.1 patch

Thanks for the release giant
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Mr.H-DK:
some small issues with 2.0.1

1. Can't get on/off Animations to work. Tried giants tutorial more than once :)

2. No programs showing up in the menu. Got it to work by dismount/mounting SDcard and reboot. Any ideas why this happens, have had it before in earlier ROM?

Again, giant, thanks for your work and feeyo to if you are watching.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] djduxx:
On/off Animation

After folowing giants guide for on/off animation try disabling JIT. The animation doesn't work with JIT ON, at least for me it doesn't.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alex_canada:
Have you done a clean install of 2.0 + 2.1 patch of you installed on top of 1.9.5?

That might be the difference...

Although it might be one the apps that I have installed because I remember the first time I started the phone after flashing the new ROM was connected on USB...can one app have that effect on the system? I highly doubt it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Mr.H-DK:
Clean and after Feeyo instructions. boot up after everything you install.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alex_canada:
Interesting...I definitely haven't followed Feeyo's instructions. Where can I find them or it's just that I need to reboot after every install of an app?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Mr.H-DK:
Here is how Feeyo describe it:

http://www.cronosproject.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=58&t=918

I used giant way last time and had no issues with that, so I have no clue if it does any difference. Feeyo writes that is't impotent.

Do you know anything about that giant_rider?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] omlet:
what is the animation?

is it the neon's one?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Feeyo has said in his thread that you can probably just wipe cache and dalvik before flashing a new release. However, he recommends if you have any problems to follow his more detailed instructions you sited.

I have been wiping cache and dalvik only for a few releases with no problems.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] blaster44:
How to change bootanimation to original, android? I like this, but in this rom it was replaced. And this is not bootanimation.zip in /system/media.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Try adding the original boot animation in the /system/media folder. It should work.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] blaster44:
This is something other. This is "subbootanimation" whitch is played, if system don't find bootanimation.zip file in /system/media.

And next question. Have this ROM DISes after go in airplane mode?

Scheme:

Turn on mobile data, and go to any page. Now turn off browser and turn on airplane mode. Now go phone in sleep mode via red button. Now wait about 1 minute, and try to wake up phone.

And next question.

This ROM based on CM7 stable? I think about tablet tweaks in CM settings. Have this ROM this option?

And next question:

Have this ROM OC kernel? If yes, can i flash kernel with stock frequency?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] drbobb:
Has anyone succeeded in sending a file to another device by bluetooth while running this rom?

As request, another link for the 2.0.1 patch:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] drbobb:
I think there is some issue with the graphics on the latest release of this rom.

Gallery (3d) doesn't work in landscape, it produces a garbled screen. Likewise a garbled screen often appears when using the camera. Also, most LWP's don't work, some start up but exit before long (tested with several different launchers).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Feeyo has a link in his Cronos forum to a fixed 3D Gallery app.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] drbobb:
Thank you, will try. Any comment about the broken LWP's?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I can't remember if Feeyo has commented about this item. Not sure if it's included in his gallery patch.

kernel 710 MHz oc kernel: (rapidshare, multiupload) (thanks to rps13) (from page one)

what should i do to fix this problem??
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] drbobb:
I don't think the gallery has anything to do with this, and he just replaces the Gallery3D.apk. Thing is, *most* LWPs don't seem to work.

Also, I don't think the miui camera and music apps are a great idea, they do look fine but they work rather erratically.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] thp777:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] LordGiotto:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] petsrdjan:

Like I said before, in my experience most live wallpapers don't work (a few do though).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] drbobb:
Do all the Gingerbread ports for the Magic w/ 6.35 radio share the high battery drain issue? This ROM is really functional and pretty, but the drain is way too much, even when the phone is idle. And I haven't been able to find any app to blame, it looks as if the display was draining battery even when it's off.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] nooty90:
i dont think so, i hv use this rom.. and i dont hv battery drain issue
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Ntadeusz:
No, I havn't battery drain. But it needs to make some tweaks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alex_canada:
what are the tweaks you do?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] LordGiotto:
Another annoying issue: if i upgrade facebook to 1.5.3 version, the synchronization with contacts stops working and facebook FC if you try to access fb profile through contact profile.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Ntadeusz:
First, check phone settings: input on dialer following code: *#*#4636#*#* and you will see hidden phone settings. Set preferable type of Network to GSM auto (PRL) and it will down battery consumption.

Second, calibrate battery with this program http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1024867 .

It increase your battery life.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] drbobb:
Well I did perform the switch to GSM auto (PRL), and the battery calibration as well - though the old way, without using the app. But it didn't change much.

Based on my experience with other ROMs, when a ROM can't last more than 24 hours under moderate usage, I regard it as exhibiting excessive drain. In my case, moderate usage means very sporadic messaging (sms - I barely send any at all), a couple of voice calls a day (usually very brief), and a fair amount of internet use (email, web, maybe an hour or so of streaming audio), split about 50/50 between 3g and wifi, and maybe one snapshot with the camera. No GPS use in this case, if I do use the GPS it devours the battery like mad (gone in two or three hours).

Under such usage this ROM barely makes it to 12 hours, in addition to losing 30-40 percent of battery charge overnight, doing nothing.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] LordGiotto:
Neocore is buggy for me. It seems like some opengl layers are disabled (newbie consideration :P).

Does it work for you?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] drbobb:
I used it, but it did not fix the garbled screen issue.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Nel Del:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Ma5t3r89:
This version has new bugs with wifi, Feeyo is working on them, I guess it's nonsense for giant to hurry for porting it when we can wait a couple of days and have the fixed one...

Especially since most of Feeyo's changes were made in the kernel, and we have to use a different kernel on Magic.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Neky:
I have followed your installation steps and reinstalled the ROM twice, and I get the same issue every time; dialer has lags...not lags...delays of 2+ seconds, everything freezes as soon as I press a number.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Mr.H-DK:
Updates from Cronos

Hey giant_rider

I have no clue about how big the porting Hero to Magic ROM task is and how much that needs to be changed.

The reason I ask is because I see small patches from Feeyo. Lets say the battery stats update he did some time ago. I applied it, and it worked, but it could have gone the other way, if it was files that needed to be patched for Magic or something like that.

Is there some kind of guideline of what's safe and what's not to update from a Hero ROM? Up front I have a feeling of a no, and it's not that simple to say, but I am curious and I guess you know a lot about this.

Thank again for doing GBRider

Hey giant, do your aosp ROM have the crt tv electron beam effect when turning screen off and on?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Nel Del:
capychimp, i used to have your rom on my phone. very nice!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Yes. The last time I checked the ability to turn it on and off was a bit buggy I think, but I have not tried it in a few releases.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
You most likely won't have any issue flashing the updates Feeyo releases for apps (camera, 3d Gallery, music player, etc.) from his Hero forum.

Some of his patches won't cause a problem either....it depends what he's updating in the patch. I would have to look at the specific patch to be able to tell you if it will work or not.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I will try porting Feeyo's latest version in the next few hours.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Nel Del:
oh yeah! cant wait!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alex_canada:

Low free Rams in 2.1.0

While listening to music in my car, I noticed a few interruptions within the songs, is it due to the newly leaked music apps or the lack of rams.

I checked the level free Rams level in Cronos 2.1.0 it was only 28 MB. However, compared to the same number of installed applications on Cronos 2.0.0, I had a full 110 MB of free ram.

Anyways, I am switching back to Cronos 2.0.0 till this issue is resolved.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] drbobb:
Maybe it's a coincidence, but after the last update my gps stopped working altogether - no satellites are seen.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Nel Del:
No random reboots so far (2 days old). Smooth GUI. Very nice ROM. An issue with Google Maps, though...

Starting from either 1.9.5 or 2.0.0 - Google Maps change-angle started working for the 1st time. I don't really know what it's called but when I press the "My Location" button, it changes into a compass icon and the screen orientation changes based on my direction. When I press the icon button for the second time, it changes into an "angled" compass and the map view also sort of angles itself into almost like 3D view. For this latest version (2.1.0), I reformatted the SD card, did a full wipe, installed ROM and gapps, then noticed no more "angled maps" (even after patching oc710 kernel). I even patched the GPS_asia fix (I'm from Philippines). No difference. Why don't I have that feature anymore?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I think there is a missing setting in the build.prop file.

I will make an update and test later if I have time. If not, then I will try this week.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] drbobb:
Could this be causing my gps issue as well? What setting could that be?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Mr.H-DK:
Just to be sure, did you install the EU GPS fix?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] drbobb:
O

Nope, but I never needed it before, either. In any case, its lack might slow down operation but not cause the gps to fail completely.

EDIT I'm afraid it's a hardware failure, I tried with DietGB and the GPS doesn't work there, either.
