Also, there was a bug in this ROM: If you install application manually from SD-card backup, your market updater does not see installed application (it is not in the list of installed applications) and therefore market does not update that application. It is not a problem when installed one or two applications from backup, you can reinstall them from market. But, when installed 15-20 applications, you have to download and reinstall them again which makes backup Useless. :confused:

Roalex, could you please check what you can do to get it fixed. Thanks. :cool:
[G1 Android Development] Galaxen:
There is nothing Roalex can do about that.. when you install manually the market link isnt restored and then you wont see them in installed applications. Only way I know is to use titanium backup which actually restores market link aswell.
[G1 Android Development] uvt_novice:
Try another ROM, such as Yoshi's Ginger http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=932118, this works fine there. Market updates and restores all links.

I was already advised to use Titanium backup once by one of the members. Looks like commercial. Only pay-version of Titenium allows to restore links. In average, I did not like this application (Titanium backup), nor I am willing to pay for it.
[G1 Android Development] golfakis:
the best one i tryied untill now
[G1 Android Development] MrFrankfromCM:
The free TB allows for links to be backed up too. When I flash different ROMS my apps get auto restored one I download TB from the Market. You have to get TB.

COS-DS-03192011-full-signed.zip as well as its light version have no sound among many other huge bugs ...

COS-DS-03192011-full-signed.zip (no sound or video playback, no notification bar, no phone/wifi/data connection, can't read SD card)

COS-DS-03192011-light-signed.zip (no sound or video playback)

Has anyone else encountered these problems?

I checked the md5 check sum for all of them.
[G1 Android Development] juaninamillion:
Nope! Everything's perfect here. Started playing w/ themes. I..... think I like this one? Awesome job! Thank you for helping me like my phone again!
[G1 Android Development] roalex:
@mahasmb

This rom isn't quite nooby friendly im afried ><

If you have such issues i think it would be better to stick to something you know how to operate. Its a phone after all, having it unusable isn't really good :)
[G1 Android Development] uvt_novice:
Gentlemen, the question however arises how your current ROM works: whether you need an additional application to backup/restore market links for your applications or your ROM does it automatically itself even if you restored, for example, SD-ext with applications on it which was backed up when you were using another ROM. ;)

Anyway, thanks for your reference re TB :D

Nice theme ThdDude
[G1 Android Development] cj chitwood:
I've also noticed the phone being faster when apps are wiped (e.g. like with your accidental nuke as well as with fresh-wiped new-ROM flashes), but that's normal for any computer. Once you start installing things, inevitably something's going to run as a service, and inevitably the phone starts slowing down (for other reasons as well, of course, such as filesystem usage and general efficiency issues).

But yeah, I'll check the services too...

No disrespect intended, but I'd buy this if I plugged my phone into USB. I use the wall charger for just about all power now. 'Bout the only time I plug into USB anymore is to update the ROM.

See, my understanding of the "usb bug" was when "USB Debugging" was left on, the android debug bridge daemon would run when USB was connected, and after a certain version, they chose or forgot to have adbd stop when USB was unplugged. At least, that's what I had read.

So is the "usb bug" an honest-to-God, documented, true bug that we can see really does require a reboot? Serious here, not being facetious or anything. 'Cus I thought it was just adbd running in the background more than it should...

Uhm, so last night I turned WiFi off and left 3G on. Battery was at 60% after 7.5 hours. So 5.333% per hour loss. Little bit higher than I used to get.

So to test the theory, tonight I shall try again, ensure EVERYTHING but the phone radio is turned off, and reboot before I go to bed.

I also recently discovered Safe Mode. Apparently, it doesn't load any third-party apps. Maybe I'll try that as well, on another night. Just press and hold Menu while booting, until you get to the lock screen. On some models, it's the trackball you hold, but the Dream should be Menu. We'll see how that does overnight.
[G1 Android Development] Paul Shirley:
It's not that simple, it would be fixed by now if it was.

What I noticed running 'The Official AOSP' was turning off USB debugging sometimes (rarely) stops the drain instantly but it mostly just seriously reduced the chance the bug would strike. On COS it doesn't seem to make a noticeable difference, I see the drain bug almost every time I unplug and worse, I often need to reboot several times to stop it.

The biggest difference on COS is battery history shows the phone not sleeping when the bug strikes, on "The Official" it reported being asleep but was still draining power as if running.
[G1 Android Development] anwoo:
3D hardware acceleration doesn't seem to be working.
[G1 Android Development] cj chitwood:
Interesting. You obviously have played with it more than I have, to the point of running AOSP. I never have the time to really get into truly developing, GITting, compiling from sources... It surprises me, though, that it would take multiple reboots to solve a problem like that. That tells me there must be a file stored in NVR that saves some state of some part of the device and that file isn't being removed or properly overwritten. But then, as stated, I don't play with it like a lot of people do. Wish I could. But that means I don't understand it the way you guys do, too.

Now, on the note of things not getting overwritten/erased, I HAVE noticed on multiple occasions that my phone doesn't always flash properly. Sometimes I can do a full wipe, flash, and tiny bits and pieces of old stuff stick around (even with the Google Backup thing turned off). Some other times, the flash only partially succeeds. Once, in CM, I had to completely wipe the phone 100% clean including using Fastboot, flashing a stock ROM, and then start from the first version after the Google C&D to reroot and bring it back to current version (6.0 I think, at the time). It's as though the NAND chip itself has a bug in it. I wonder if that could be the case or if this is a bug definitely in software that 100% of users have...
[G1 Android Development] Philip #II:
Heyo!

I'm a SGS user and a friend of mine got from her sister the G1 and now a have a question!

Is this rom really bug free like written in the discription? I'm asking this because the gingerbread roms for the sgs aren't really close to stable!
[G1 Android Development] luminoso:
Yes, this one is. Very stable. Didn't had one problem so far.

Perfect!
[G1 Android Development] Galaxen:
Seems only bugs you can find in this ROM are caused by yourself or are mainly bugs excisting in the GB 2.3.3 AOSP from google it self (e.g. blank black screens and so on)
[G1 Android Development] ThdDude:
Ok updated my theme for COS D/S 03202011 and STOCK THEME if you don't like
[G1 Android Development] crypticc:
Like this you mean? See massive drop at end when phone isn't even awake and screen isn't on. Looks like a service of some kind not playing nice when phone radio sleeps. no service running that I can see at all but I suspect network location service personally.

Which kind of makes sense as all this started at about same time as aggressive of aggressive battery management.

And to rule out the phone itself, this is what you can get if you insert a sim that doesn't even support data :) and just let phone sleep with occasional calls. I vote interaction of radio vs.gapps will eventually prove to be culprit
[G1 Android Development] cj chitwood:
Wow... so, 4 days. So even when I turn off data, turn off sync, and turn off 3G, that's still not the same as using a non-data SIM, correct? Because there is no way I'm going to get 4 DAYS out of my battery even with all that turned off. A day, tops. I plan to run mine in safe mode overnight soon to see if simply having some services stopped makes the difference.

What battery do you use?
[G1 Android Development] uvt_novice:
Yeah, this is a good question - what battery are you using...? :D
[G1 Android Development] yo9gnc:
i managed to stay 6d and a few hours with cm6.1 and a broken battery. the broken battery will drop on large consumers (wi-fi or even bright screen for too long). but on stand by it last for 6d. now i have a new battery (1120mah) and managed an easy 3days with COS D/S with little data, and a few phone calls.
[G1 Android Development] cj chitwood:
Well, I made a mishap and left the phone in Safe Mode last night. Meant to do that tonight, BUT, since I didn't, I learned that one of the things that Safe Mode prevents from running is alarm clock apps. :) So, if you have to be at work by a certain time and your wife isn't inexplicably awake and on her phone doing Facebook at 6:00 a.m. to wake you up and let you know you're about to be late, I don't recommend Safe Mode during the week :D

So, here's what I have found. After 8 hours and 48 minutes of me doing N. O. T. H. I. N. G. with the phone while it's in Safe Mode, I dropped to 89% battery. That's 48 minutes per percent, or 1.25% per hour. That means the phone in Safe Mode can last 80 hours, or 3 days 8 hours.

I had everything shut off, hadn't opened any apps except settings. I even had background data turned off as well as regular data. No wifi, 2G only, etc. I only turned debugging on to get a screen shot, mere seconds before grabbing it.

Compare Standby, idle, Android, Display with the above... Similar numbers... Mind you, this is for a mere not-quite-nine-hours, so if I let it go for days, they might be more similar. Still, it's good to know we can drag the battery out if need be.

rc e100 don't work

Wow, this is a great rom, another life for my magic.

the original headset work perfectly but the rom doesn't recognize my remote control (RC e100).

Somebody know how to make this remote control work?
[G1 Android Development] Llywelyn:
Hi Alex !

Can you update the Github mirrored COS-DS ?

We can't download through megaupload-like sites with our connection here...

Thank you :)
[G1 Android Development] cj chitwood:
Funny, in airplane mode, you would think the battery would last longer.

I was not plugged in by USB at any time after this morning's reboot. WiFi, 3G, all of that disabled. Maybe I should turn GPS off, too, IDK. BUT, after only 4 hours and 20 minutes of being on battery, only about an hour total of which was with signal (*but airplane mode for the remainder), I'm down to 37%.

When I turned airplane mode off, I saw I had 91% Android OS using the battery, something like 3% or 5% phone idle, etc. Here's what I've got now:

​

Weird. So, I think one of two things. Either something runs the battery hard in airplane mode, or, when I'm inside and have no GPS it actually tries and tries and tries to get GPS lock. Maybe I'll turn GPS off tomorrow and try again.
[G1 Android Development] sada23:
I turn off the Bluetooth, GPS and Wifi off when I sleep at night. Also get the phone to "Go to sleep" by having the end button to put the phone to sleep. However, this does not help either. The battery drain continues at the rates you are seeing. As you have mentioned several times, there si some service(s) that is(are) draining the battery.
[G1 Android Development] crypticc:
Original battery. Nearly 2 years old now.

Can confirm airplane doesn't help. In fact makes worse, for me at least. regardless of reason for connect, failure to find data when it expects is an issue.

It's almost as if phone doesn't know there's no data service without trying and retrying unless data is completely disabled.

And here's where it goes wrong.note no usage midway. And biggest user is phone and android os.

roalex, call time now if you want this taken elsewhere.

Data Bind Without DC2X

I was wondering if Apps2EXT can be used as well as the having /Data on EXT, but without having Dalvik-cache on EXT. I think I'd rather have the space available without the performance hit.

Edit: there's no /data/data bind in this rom as is very slow

anyone know of any gingerbread rom with the screen on/off animations ? ;p thats one of the big reasons i want gingerbread for, its just so cool (x
[G1 Android Development] cj chitwood:
ON ANOTHER NOTE

Has anyone else noticed camera selectively showing pics? Like, I took some of the "supermoon" rise, and they showed up in Gallery, even this afternoon. But when I got home, those were gone and another set was showing. Any ideas?

I know that CyanogenMod changed the location pics were saved to as well as some filename formats along the months I was using that ROM, but I could always find the pics. Now it's like they're simply not there...
[G1 Android Development] g1user101:
umm so many updates on this rom. do i just put the .zip in my phone and just flash without wiping? i remember i did tht on gingeryoshi and it erased all my data. will it erase all my data on this rom?

and also, some lwp dont work. like nexus revamped, it works, then i go to sleep and turn it back on, it goes black
[G1 Android Development] arohacs:
I only lose data if I wipe before changing ROMs. In the case of this one, I have flashed over every update and not lost anything. NAND is your friend, though :D

[G1 Android Development] wjsturgis3:
roalex,

Thanks for a wonderful rom. I just have one small question.

If "An apple a day keeps the Doctor away",

does "A rom a day keep the bugs away"?
[G1 Android Development] sada23:
"An apple a day keep the Doctor away, If, the doctor is pretty, throw the apple away"

"A ROM a day keeps the wife away, if the wife is pretty, throw the ROM away".
[G1 Android Development] uvt_novice:

Let's be patient and wait till final release :D
[G1 Android Development] d12unk13astard:

[G1 Android Development] bbutlerau:
roalex thanks for the awesome rom.. making me hold on to my HTC Dream a bit longer till i can get a new phone. My contract is up ... just waiting for Australia to get some decent Tegra2 stuff.

I love when a rom is supported to this level with bug fixes almost every day. Keep up the good rom
[G1 Android Development] g1user101:
do u just rename the zip as update.zip and flash it?

i have amon ra recovery. or do i just flash the rom and just reboot and im done
[G1 Android Development] kingjehu:
Wow, this ROM is updated often. I have Yesterday's release running so beautifully, with such awesome battery life, that I almost don't want to update again. I guess I'll do it once a week, lol.
[G1 Android Development] roalex:
There will never be a final release, just updates, the code isn't standing still but its improving daily, just like this rom, that's why im keeping older build in the topic, who thinks an older build was better for him/her can use that.
[G1 Android Development] fonsigno:
i need wipe for update ?
[G1 Android Development] sada23:
You dont need to wipe if you already have a previous version of this ROM installed on your phone.
[G1 Android Development] g1user101:
so much updates! haha. but, good job. best gingerbread rom ive used. used gingeryoshi and i have to use like a different kernel and stuff. wifi nd usb breaks. but on this, no! thanks !

[G1 Android Development] DevilofanAngel:
Update issues...

Finally a noob has been granted his just due!

Anyway, I would like to thank you for this Roalex, sent you a pm expressing my gratitude a week or so ago.

Now, I've been running the 0317 update without any major hiccups until I tried to apply the 0322 update. It flashed fine & booted without an issue. However, after restoring my apps & running fix_permissions, it wouldn't completely reboot, it would get stuck on the Android boot screen for almost an hour at the most. I found another thread saying it could be the ext partition being corrupt, wiped it, no joy. Did an Oshaka wipe & reflashed, no joy. Did a fastboot system wipe, reflashed everything per instructions, restoring apps now & will reinstitute the built-in apps2ext & then reboot shortly.

Attached the last logcat before resorting to fastboot wipe. Need to learn more about this...

Question 1: What could have caused this boot failure? My intial COS-DS install was 0312 without any major issues.

Update: Without reinstituting apps2sdext yet, stuck at 'Android' boot screen again.

On a side note, prior to the flashing attempt of the 0322 update, I was unable to install any updates via the market & majority (like 90%) of my apps have been installed internally, so I also had the low storage warning & insufficient storage warning+unsuccessful installation warnings. Less than 5% of my apps went to the ext. Keeping in mind that I downloaded more apps after the FR-CMTD patch+swap & initial COS-DS 0317 flash. I waited before doing much installing to become more acquainted with the ROM+patches & it's stability. Even after a few reboots, nothing more would move to sdext. With Firerat's AIO, you rerun the patch each time your internal storage gets low. The built-in is supposed to be automatic.

Question 2+: Is it best to have apps2ext on from the start or only after you get the low storage warnings? Is this a situation where using the data2sdext bind is best used or am I missing something?
[G1 Android Development] arohacs:
no need to rename the rom - better if you don't so you know what you're flashing. Flashing from recovery should work assuming you have the prerequisite things done. When in doubt, NAND.
[G1 Android Development] cityeyes:
This is seriously as good as having nightlies. Thanks, roalex.

That said, the light version seems to be missing. The other two are updated to 032311, the light version is still 032211.
[G1 Android Development] g1user101:
good rom. Cant believe ima say this, but this is better than GingerYoshi. haha.
[G1 Android Development] sada23:
Seems like the SD Card is corrupt. Try to copy the contents of your SD card to some HDD, format and re-partition your SD card, restore the copied content and try again to flash the ROM.

Arabic fonts

Dear Roalex,

Thank you for this great ROM.

I would be delighted if you add Arabic support

Through downloading an Arabic keyboard , we can read and write Arabic sms

However, in the browser the letters are not linked, I think it has to do with RTL

in system/lib/libcore.so and framework.

Thanks.

[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Funny how much Dream developement is still going.
[G1 Android Development] sada23:
Alright, Wil try the download again and install it. could you add Titaniumbackup as one of the apps in the ROM? This would help use restore the data after we flash the rom.Else we will have to install the Titanium Backup ourselves. Not a biggie , but nice to have. I hope we will soon find a good resolution for the Battery drain,
[G1 Android Development] sada23:
The new upload from RC1 seems better and snappy.
[G1 Android Development] crz6662:
Very nice, runs better than some of the Froyo roms I've downloaded. One small issue though, can't get the usb tethering to work. Keeps defaulting to USB storage, even without mounting. Tried clicking tethering box when 1st connecting, check mark appears and then disappears. Something special I have to do to enable ?

Absolutely must have tethering.

Shame that damn Gallery is in there. To slow and to much time loading all the time.

Other than that, really good job. Will be my new rom if tethering can be fixed or I can get it to work.

Thanks Dev....
[G1 Android Development] crz6662:
Actually mine came up very quickly. Ballpark, less than 4-5 minutes. Nice rom.
[G1 Android Development] d12unk13astard:
I noticed this too.. But you can try apps like easy tether or pdanet which are a workaround to the problem.
[G1 Android Development] crz6662:
Actually have the paid version of easy tether and pdanet and for some reason neither work. Both used to work on both my XP & Vista but haven't for a few months. Might have to attempt them again. Stock tethering app on HTCClay's SuperFast 1.6 works with no problem.
[G1 Android Development] ThdDude:
I found this kernel works with G1 very well and fixes tethering. It seems to break wifi on mytouch in gingeryoshiRC5, not sure with this rom but it does fix the G1 with GingerbreadCOS-DSRC1. signed-boot-2.6.37-cyanogenmod-ds_32b_radio2708-20110207
[G1 Android Development] crz6662:
Thanks. I can flash through clockwork with this ?

Yes you can its signed so can flash with RA as well, Its from source code repro forums. I belive MrFrankfromCM made it but not 100% sure
[G1 Android Development] Dukenukemx:
How's the performance with this rom? I tried it when it first came out, and it ran terribly slow. I'm speaking about the UI. Also, what does OpenGL lib v1.1 add? Can I run some 3D applications that I couldn't before?
[G1 Android Development] MrFrankfromCM:
Nope..sorry wasn't me who did this.
[G1 Android Development] ThdDude:
I will track it down and get there name then lol

Its farmatito's Kernel he called it

anyway G1 Works tethering
[G1 Android Development] domii:
First of all, thanks a lot for the great work.

secondly, i got 2 problems...

1- i have no led notification at all... :(

2- it's pretty lagging and i done everything i can to speed it but not what i hoped for.

just hope for a fix for the led notification.

again thanks.
[G1 Android Development] roalex:
So far the 2.6.37 kernel looks to be under performing sadly, not quite sure whats the issue since im no kernel master will probably go back to 2.6.35 w/o a working USB tether for now :)

there for i made a quick rollback kernel update

2.6.35_2708_ezterry.zip

not gonna have USB tether working but its tones faster.
