This rom takes use of maybe 5-20 minutes with at least one fresh boot before it runs at peak performance. Also, try flashing carz's 614 MHz kernel listed in the 1st and 2nd post, then reboot, go into Settings -> CM Extra -> Performance -> CPU settings and change the max CPU frequency to 614 MHz. I have my min set at 245 MHz. Check the Set on boot option and reboot and hopefully it's better.

Also, if you have not used Launcher Pro before there are window animation speed settings in the Launcher Pro settings. There are other window animation speed settings in Spare Parts too.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Maybe these tips will help. You could try a few of them first before executing all of them.

http://www.villainrom.co.uk/vBwiki/index.php/Calibrate_Battery

Also, I doubt it's the recovery, but I am using carz's v1.7.0.1 recovery (see my signature) and I prefer it over the other options we have for our phones and radio.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I've added the links to the 1st and 2nd post.

Talking about calling features...

I've had a problem for quite some time with most non-Sense ROMs and maybe you guys have a solution.

I have some numbers I like to store in my contacts together with the extra keys that are needed to take me to a specific menu like <phone number> p (for pause) 4p5p7 - just an example.

On the Sense ROMs I would hear the specific tones for the "4" "5" "7" as well as if I am manually pressing those keys while in call, but not if I initiate the call like a nice long number...and the actual call goes through but not the extra stuff.

Any idea?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Ntadeusz:
But it has much bugs.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fonsigno:
better than 1.6
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Ntadeusz:
I have 1.6 without issues, but before flashing I wiped all.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fonsigno:
I wiped all. i have a battery drain , in one day i have recharge twice. problem 2g 3g toggle when active wi fi and data connection phone rebots :S:S:S:S . i have wiped and flashed rom twice

sorry for english....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] moneymike55:
This may be a stupid question, but will this rom work on a mt3g 1.2 (32a/b hybrid) with 2.22.28.25 radio and 35.11 kernel, or just non-usa 6.xx radio? I am currently running Ginger Yoshi rc5.2 (2.3.2) with a cm7 honeycomb theme but would really like to find a working 2.3.3 rom. Has anyone with a 1.2/fender tried this or will I brick my phone if i do?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Maxxy13:
How do you enter the pause?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alex_canada:
Small 'p' symbol.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Maxxy13:
Don't use the 'p' symbol, use a comma from the numeric keyboard instead. I was caught by the same issue when switched from a Sense ROM to a normal one.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Nel Del:
This is the one i'm looking for. Will try it this weekend. Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Nel Del:
Where's the link?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Maxxy13:
Giant, are you planning to create a build based on Cronos 1.7.0 or would you rather wait till more bugs are fixed?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alex_canada:
You are right :) fixed my problem. Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] iliaskone:
cronos 1.8

i think giant rider knows what he is doing.he protects us from wiping all the time.its time to say, that cronos 1.8 is out!!!

i think that tommorow we will have the update link if giant can upload it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I was testing 1.7.0 and the wifi/3G bug is still present, so......

Feeyo released Cronos 1.8.0. I am porting now and will test for a bit before I upload.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] wingsaba:
i like this rom very much, thanks to giant_rider.

i want to know is there a way to modify lowmemorykill without the autokiller app?

i modify /system/etc/init.d/30tweaks like this

echo "1536,2048,4096,5120,15360,23040" >

it just doesn,t work

how to get it working, thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
The 1st and 2nd posts have been updated with v1.8.0.

It's a noticeable improvement over previous version I think.

The in-call touch UI added back to Phone settings .

As always you can try just wiping dalvik cache. I did a full wipe and everything seems fine.

Let me know if the bug with wifi / 3G has been fixed.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] biictorr:
Thanks giant. 1.6 wasnt cooperating with me. hope this one works better. btw, the link in post 2 needs to be fixed.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] nektong:
I just flashed GB Cronos (I was using RCMagic previously)

All my apps are available on the first boot. What makes that happen?

Please forgive my ignorance.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Did you wipe in recovery?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Extract the boot.img file, change the defaults in the init.sapphire.rc file, then build the boot.img again.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Unkjcr:
Did you wipe the sd-ext partition? I think it happened with me before too. :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alex_aac14:
i dont think hq youtube is a bug cause i already had it before i flashed this rom
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] nektong:
I did not wipe sd-ext. But all my apps were installed on phone, not SD. How did GB Cronos found them?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] nektong:
Yes I did factory reset and Dalvik-cache wipe.

I did not wipe SD card but I removed the "Android" fold on SD card manually
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] biictorr:
Call, home and search buttons not working for me in 1.8. And i got two reboots while trying to restore all my apps. Did a full wipe. Is 2.3.3 really so different from .2 that it's introduced all these problems?

No lock screen either. :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Ntadeusz:
Here works all. Thank you Giant.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] milowke:
Thnx for the newest version, But I think I will wait for more comments if it runs good etc,

Hate to wipe all the time.

About that youtube HQ bug, never had this with the roms lol,

HQ works even good, no problems with it :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ahdee:
upgraded from v1.6 to v1.8

v1.6:

the old TV switch on/off features for wake up/stand by is working

v1.8

The old TV switch on/off feature not working

will continue to update
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mkvb:
Skip songs on volume keys when screen is off, is not working! After update without wipe, from 1.6.0 to 1.8.0 Market is not working
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] milowke:
Did you tried a full wipe? full wipe should run good.

This has been posted couple hours ago.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mkvb:
My mistake, sorry, I forgot to flash gapps... Market is working now but skip songs with volume keys not. Can someone try that? Thanks.

Excellent rom!!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bengongboy:
does this new version build v1.8.0, usb tether still broken under windows 7?

I mean using tether without external apps like pda net or easytether
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ahdee:
Tried a full wipe with the same results.

other works fine. music not tested yet.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Try a full wipe.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] biictorr:
Just reflashed without wiping and everything seems to be working except screen off /on animations. Not a big deal for me though. Thanks. I liked the old font better but I guess the added features make up for it :p

Is the battery icon supposed to get squished when percent is enabled?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mkvb:
After full wipe and new clean reinstall, songs can be skkiped with volume button. Everything is ok now!!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Here is a zip file you can flash from recovery to load the old fonts.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] strobon:
compare to other rom,mine have 3g/edge/gprs enabled and show to,but only for a couple of minutes.check with *#*#4636#*#* it show "WCDMA Prefered".is that right?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
For people reporting home button, search button, etc. issues, apparently you need to boot into the rom and reboot again. Powering off from the recovery won't fix the problem. Boot and reboot. That should fix your problems.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I think from what I have read WCDMA Prefered won't cause any problems but it's not a great setting for the battery. I think the optimal setting is GSM auto (PRL).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] strobon:
yep, GSM auto (PRL) supposed to saving battery life.but maybe it just my setting or something else.the 3g indicator not even showing for me,iether WCDMA Prefered or GSM auto (PRL).

anyway,your rom always come with new feature every version.i like it man,especially the music effect.:p
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Maxxy13:
Mine was set to WCDMA Preferred too. I changed it to GSM Auto (PRL). Seems to be ok so far - I can make and receive calls, the data is working too.

One thing I couldn't get working on any Cronos ROMs is lockscreen music controls. The Song Name and Album Art are displayed on the lockscreen if enabled under the CM Settings but the controls are just not there. I tried to change the lockscreen style to no avail.

Other than that - great version. Giant, thanks a lot for your work!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tera89:
how about battery performance ??? is it good ??
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ceskopanjy:
hi everyone, i'm trying the version 1.8 of this rom and I've got a problem about the home app... after any kind of app that i open when i exit the home must be recharged in memory, despite i've selected in cm settings force home in memory... this happens both with default home and with launcher pro and go launcher... has anyone the same problem?

(I'm sorry for my bad english)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] spydersly:
Hi

ok i have now version 1.8 and all is very good

I have a question I had a APP news and weather application and I can not find do you have the name because i want to dowload in the market

Thank you
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] strobon:
so far it is good.as long as you disable data connection.if you use push notification

for gmail or facebook or else.use GSM auto (PRL) instead.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
There is a pretty good weather and news widget that is included if you flash the gapps file listed in the 1st post.

I use Pulse for news. It's available on the market and I think it's excellent. It does not have weather though.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
You could try rebooting if you haven't already. Also, if all else fails there is ADW Launcher on the Market.

I'm not sure why that is happening to you especially if you wiped.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jeffkhlam:
using 1.8.0:

wifi issue: could connect to my home wifi (non WPA). However, cannot connect to my office wifi (WPA).

Anyone?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Maxxy13:
My home wifi with WPA is working fine...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ntphuong:
Falshed 1.80. WIpe Dalvik Cache only ( i am tired of reinstalling apps)

Flashed hot fix (To Giant: Do we need to flash Hot fix with newer update?)

Glad to see the Call Advance setting available.

Will test and report soon

Tks Giant
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] wolfshadowkd:
cool rom but why not fix the light issue?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
So far I haven't been able to figure out how.

I am open to help............I haven't tried using the lights.msm7k.so from a Froyo rom or a G1 GB rom yet.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] specialist83:
is there chinese input for this rom? read through the last 10 pages of the thread but didn't see anything on it so just asking. giant hope u wun mind. thanks..!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ceskopanjy:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] arthurcswang:
Dear Giant Rider ,

Is there any 650~670mhz kernel can co-work with your rom?

Many Thanks !

============

GBRider_Cronos_v1.8.0 USER +1
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Carz is the kernel master for the 32a 6.35 radio which this rom needs.

You could pop over to his Diet GB thread and ask him to compile a 650-670 MHz kernel. His kernels are compatible with any special tweaks with this rom.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] liakosak:
using 1.8.0:

wifi issue: could connect to my home wifi (non WPA). However, cannot connect to my office wifi (WPA).

Anyone?

i have the same problem!

Anyone?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rajkos:
Memory

Hey Giant nice work and great ROM. Not any issue. Maybe battery life but ...I will see (testing a lot so ....).

My device is:

HTC Magic 32a

ROM GBRider_Cronos_v1.8.0

Recovery: recovery-RA-magic+-v1.7.0.1.img

SPL: 1.76.2007

Radio: 6.35.16.19

I think that this device has 288MB RAM-a, but in "settings - about phone" total memory is 191Mb. Also system information from quadrant standard report total memory 196144Kb and inactive: 87132! How to "unlock" inactive memory?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] nobooya:
It's not inactive, it's just used for GPU, radio etc.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Check this thread out:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=681165

I think this is the link to the updated carz kernel compiled by rps13 that you want:

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=535158&d=1299439614

I am not on my own PC and can't look at the file, but my guess is you should be able to flash this from recovery over GBRider_Cronos_v1.8.0 to get a max 710 MHz oc kernel.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] acronimo:
Battery Charge is too long

Hi...I'm testing 1.8.0 ....

In this day the phone had 2 crash and automatic reboot...not a problem for me ;-)

Generally work fine in all functions...

Yesterday I had a block when I activated code fingers lock screeen, and I must wipe the phone :-(

The rom is a great rom and I will use it as daily rom!

Only a question: the battery charging is very very very slow? It's the same for you?

It need abou 3 hours for a full charge...while whit Cyanogen 6 or other rom It needed only 40 minutes!

Why? There is a setting for this?

Sorry my english :-)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Ntadeusz:
It is true - battery charging is slow. But is good, because fast charging is short time for next charging. For example, if you charge battery with charger, time to next charging is shorter than if you charge form PC via usb.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] acronimo:
O yes I understand...thank you
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] 2beta:
Have also some reboots. After the second reboot the ON/OFF screen animation is appeared, cool...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alex_canada:
Giant_Rider I flashed rps13's re-compiled kernel and works like a charm on your ROM
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Sleeepy2:
Alex just installed it also, so far so good. What speed do you have it set for max?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Mr.H-DK:
Nope, works for me with and without WPA.

Actually I have a super ROM, no reboots, no drains, everything works, thanks giant

I did a full wipe before installing and followed giants tutorial with reboot after install.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Maxxy13:
Can anybody verify the lock screen music controls? For me the buttons are not visible but are working.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alex_canada:
I'm a bit more conservative so I set it to 613Mhz when charging and between 245-576Mhz while on battery...but I can confirm it was working fine at 710Mhz (so fast!!)

AngryBirds is flying!! :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ahdee:
mine one is working. I have the setting:

CM Extra > Lockscreen setting > Widget options >

Lockscreen music control ON

Display music control when headset is connected ON
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ntphuong:
i don't understand?

I did not see any music control button on the lock screen. Try to set in CM extra but still did not work.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] nektong:
Did anyone try neocore? The graphics is broken. I wonder if I am the only one having the problem.

(sorry for my English. I donno how to describe it other than just broken)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] nektong:
I tried a few HTC_CIME packages but none works for me

At this moment I am using CedIME
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Maxxy13:
The Neocore graphic looks weird to me too.

48.7 fps.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Maxxy13:
Okay, I've figured out the lock screen music controls thing. They are actually visible but barely. The problem is that my wallpaper picture is very much in grey tint. The controls icons are greyish too.

It would be nice to be able to change the controls color.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Maxxy13:
There is some kind of Profiles configuration under the Settings. Is this a Gingerbread 2.3.3 feature or CM7?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ginoyang:
HTC_CIME mod v2

I am using HTC_CIME mod v2 (2010/09/16), read the post if you could read Chinese ...

It's work but buggy when press IME setting.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] onimorza:
great rom!

best one I've ever seen!

only thing is the music widget seems to unload after a reboot.

but if that's the only thing not working for me that's peanuts!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] nektong:
It works! Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] iliaskone:
hey giant rider.

cronos 1.8 is the best rom!!very stable with no really bugs and with the carz 710 kernel hade the best results to neocore,linpack and quandtrant(55.5,4.7,495).the battery life is better and extra settings are very nice.i dont know what it can be better than that to my phone.

respect to the people who done that awsome work!!

thank you!!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ntphuong:
Yes, it is correct. I see the control icons already. But I feel that the control speed is not good (the music did not response immediately)

Also, after enable this, sometimes I could not see the incoming call, just only ringing.

To Giant: Carz has new update of kernel to 710 and 10MB RAM extra

"Update 10: I've made a new OC kernel for anyone running Gingerbread on the new radio, it's basically carz's kernel except it goes to 710 MHz (max, seems stable so far) and adds an extra 10 MB of ram (ezTerry's patch can be found here)."

Can we flash this kernel with your GB ROM?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] 2beta:
when I hold down the power button now, I get all five options: silent mode, airplane mode, choose profile, reboot and power off. In profile there are Default, work, Home,...

How/Where can I edit these profiles ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Maxxy13:
You can edit profiles under the Settings -> Profiles.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] drbobb:
Why was the DSPManager thrown out? I tried to push it from a previous version, but it doesn't seem to work.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] arthurcswang:
Dear Giant Rider,

I'm playing 1.8.0 + carz 710mhz kernel(+10mb free patch) now, it is fantastic. :D

But when I want to flash my personal testbuild (still learning),

the RA-recovery 1.6.2H always ask me to have Hboot 1.33 :confused:

So, could you give me some clue for this issues without downgrade the hboot and radio ?

Many thanks again !
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] acronimo:
New test for battery....

to charge the battery from 20% to 90% takes over 5 / 6 hours....too much...You have same "problem"?

Is there a way to speed up the charge?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Nel Del:
1.8 is the best so far. will the ambient light sensor ever work? and could somebody post the link to carz's 710mhz? thanks.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I added links to the carz 710 MHz kernel by rps13 to the 1st and 2nd posts. I've been busy and have not been on much the past couple of days. I am going to flash it and test it myself after reading all the good reports :p

Edit: I set my max CPU to 652 MHz in Settings -> CM Extra -> Performance -> CPU Settings and my phone is faster, smoother and for now stable.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ntphuong:
Set the same speed like you, the phone run faster.

Also, very strange that my phone battery was 6% when I flashed the kernel but after restart, it is 55% ??? And I saw the charging speed is faster than the past. Do I need to wipe my battery status?

I think the screen on/off is very lag even I run at 652 Mhz. Is there any update to fix this?

New kernel makes the charged Led on.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Nel Del:
Thanks for the help. giant_rider updated the first post with the link to that 710mhz also. I've just finished flashing it and I'm now at the homescreen. Is it just me or the boot time was cut in half with this speedy kernel?

Zimbianize? I'm not a member of any phone org except this one (XDA) and cyanogenmod but I guess I'm suspending my membership with the latter coz they stopped cooking for HTC Magic.

Any news on ambient light sensor?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] drbobb:
WHAT ambient light sensor? To my best knowledge, the magic doesn't have one.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] nobooya:
MusicFX is included in ROM instead of DSPManager.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] drbobb:
But does MusicFX support other apps than the stock Music player?
