yo wassup people

i got my g1 on cyanogen nigtly 25x or 27x some **** like that...

it has the kernel with extra memory and also that new radio...

so right now i wondder, since ive been out of the game for like a month or 2

what is the overall best rom you would choose?

i know that the gingerbread roms arent gonna be 100% even tho cyanogen got someone workin on it, so i wont ask about those...

but what about this new froyo by laszlo? or biffmod? sparksmod? how do they stack up?

i do a lot of reading but it dont help much and im already too busy so i cant actually test them all right now... so i wonder does anyone have prior experience with these mentioned roms, or possibly better ones...

any response would be appreciated thanks
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dilwaladoctor:
Cyanogen has got nobody working on gingerbread on G1. EzTerry is the legacy master for G1 gingerbread and many variations of his gingerbread roms have become available. The best I found and currently using is Ginger Yoshi by Yoshua. You can find it in the HTC SAPPHIRE/MAGIC forum. Its almost hundred percent. Very fast and cool. Try it

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kac123ige:
no no recently i read a post, said that someone else has taken over the gingerbread development for cyanogen.... i dunno ask him but thats wat they said... what about these froyo roms? i think im gonna flash thihs laszlo rom...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dilwaladoctor:
They have been talking about Cyanogen taking on (or asking somebody to take on) gingerbread for G1/Magic since the day gingerbread was announced but that has been categorically denied by Cyanogen himself several times. As for trying Froyo roms goes, its your choice brother......but its a huge PSYCHOLOGICAL pleasure and satisfaction when you see "ANDROID VERSION 2.3.2" written in your phone settings......that phone which is two and a half years old....well I love it that we dream/sapphire users have fast and cool gingerbread roms while Samsung Galaxy people have just got froyo only.........LOL
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattDrumz:
You should definitely try FroyoByLaszlo. Its probably the best ROM I've ever used. I've been using it since v1, and I usually never stay on a ROM for this long. It's by far way faster than any other Froyo ROM I've used. Plus, there's quite a lot of themes for it, so you can do a lot of customizing.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azrash:
is froyo by laslo faster than biffmod? im new to the android scene and just got a g1 3 days ago.

my main concern, is speed, and battery, thanks very much! really appreciate
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grkmanga49:
Laszlo is fast and from what I've been reading, has good battery life. I'm actually downloading the rom now to try out the new version. I've been using CM 6.1. That is also a good rom. You might want to try both of them and maybe other roms to. Just to see which one you like. Use them for a few days so you can check stability and batterylife.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azrash:
Thanks man, I am currently using ezterry's AOSP and I can tell you that it is much2 faster than biffmod, you guys should try it! you have to upgrade the spl and radio first but it is not hard!

Happy flashingggg!!

I am giving this phone to someone and need to unroot it. I have S-OFF and all. Is there a simple way of doing this with ADB?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
http://theunlockr.com/2010/12/01/how-to-unroot-the-t-mobile-g2-htc-vision/

No need for ADB. Just a hex editor and a little patience. Unrooted my first G2 to send in for warranty replacement this way no problem.

GL.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guitarfreak846:
I have a Mac...so this should run well with XP running in a VM I'm assuming...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
Yep. The hex editor is just a simple program. Just open it up edit the line and save/close. Doesn't require any power.

I ran it in bootcamp Windows 7 on my Mac.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianmcquinn:
If you used gfree to obtain radio S-OFF and Super CID, you will need to use gfree to return to S-ON and set the default CID back as well. There are instructions in the Wiki.

The guide linked to earlier in the thread will work if you obtained "S-OFF" through the engineering hboot method. If you don't want to use a hex editor, there is also a pre-modified misc.img file in the dev forum (can't remember which thread). I think there is also a command-line tool for changing the version number that you can run from terminal in one of the downgrade threads.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
Thanks for clarifying. I guess I just assumed he used the HBOOT-ENG.

As far as the Hex Editor goes, its really easy to use and you only modify one section of one line. I just personally prefer to do it myself so theres no chance I get a bad misc.img .

Hi gang,

is anyone having this issue or similar?

I have swype installed on my DHD which is running LeeDroid 2.0 and 2.05Kernel

Works great, except everytime I restart the phone it stops working, as in it will no longer swype words and i have to manually key them in? It's nothing an uninstall/reinstall doesnt fix but just a little annoying

Cheers,

K
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lezperez:
Its a known bug but instead of reinstalling, just long press on a text box and change the input method to the original one and then back to swype
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pellin:
Had exactly the same problem, both on Stock and Leedroid. Changing the input method back and forth worked for me as well.

Im running the latest 2.0.6 kernel, but seems to still be happening, like I said not a big hassle if its just changing the input method, thanks for the help guys! :)

[Atrix 4G General] dsjr2006:
Here are some comparison shots from my Atrix compared to pics from my iPhone 4. Most of them are very different......

Some of these are in low light, but all are on default - automatic settings, and iPhone 4 has HDR turned off. Flash is on Auto on both also and it came on the exact same shots so there should be no difference there.

Feel free to post more comparisons.

The Atrix shots are 1st and iPhone 4 2nd btw.

iPhone 4 vs Motorola Atrix Camera - a set on Flickr
[Atrix 4G General] SS2006:
wow thats pretty bad...

u sure u did everything right lol
[Atrix 4G General] dinan:
The iphone has a backlit sensor and I don't think the Atrix does... it simply has a better camera sensor so this is no surprised to me =\

the iphone does have a tendency to oversaturate its pictures though...
[Atrix 4G General] emudojo:
that's pretty bad :'(

engadget was lying then when they said that the camera was good enough to use it on a daily basis
[Atrix 4G General] dsjr2006:
Maybe its better outside and that's how they tested. I'll try it out today.
[Atrix 4G General] perdurabo2:
I'm no camera expert, but the Atrix camera is great (but not as good as the iPhone 4). It could be much greater if it fixed the lighting control issues. Too much light. Too much JPEG compression, too.
[Atrix 4G General] waltah!:
I've definitely gotten better results than the ones above, but the camera isn't as good as the iP4's. I don't generally factor the camera into my phone buying decision too much, but it's nice to be able to get a good shot. I've had an x10, iP4, Captivate and Inspire most recently. The x10 and iP4 had the best cams. I wouldn't go back to any of them because of it though.

btw, I like that table:)
[Atrix 4G General] doug7:
WOW

that sucks. we need more of this, and it would nice to see a captivate vs atrix comparison.

And inspire vs atrix comparison would be useful as well.
[Atrix 4G General] GuestK0050:
It's also not as good as the Captivate, but it is by far not the worst.
[Atrix 4G General] waltah!:
Captivate

Atrix

These were 2 quick shots and I think the flash was reflecting heavily off of the guitar in the shot.
[Atrix 4G General] waltah!:
lol, and seeing them both blown up they both look like crap. My bad.
[Atrix 4G General] doug7:
Same photo with the winmo htc tilt:
[Atrix 4G General] waltah!:
Outdoor pics.

Captivate

Atrix
[Atrix 4G General] psufan5:
Honestly, the atrix is probably closer to what your eyes see. Which isnt always as pretty as a camera picks up.

iPhone 4 tends to saturate the **** out of pictures especially inside. Those actually dont look all that bad.
[Atrix 4G General] Kailkti:
Well one thing is for sure, There is a purplish hue in its pictures.
[Atrix 4G General] NonovUrbizniz:
Even on the first page the Atrix photo's look more "real".

Iphone even the 3gs does SOOOO much processing to an image it's not really a reflection of the hardware... Iphone pictures look better because of MUCH better processing software.

My 3gs iphone can take nicer looking shots in CERTAIN cases then even a older canon 5 or 6mp dedicated camera.

I think the Atrix pictures are great... there is a bit of blue/purple hue but I think a better camera app would probably fix that.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] phillycreamboy:
I'm not very experienced with Linux, but when I was in the Firefox browser, I chose "check for updates under the plug-ins section and it allowed me to download a newer version of Firefox. I couldn't figure out how to install it. Also, when you choose the flash plug-in, it points you to the 10.2 download pags with multiple types of download options for Linux.

Could the reason 2 finger scrolling works in the store and not on the home version of the laptop dock be because of the older version of Firefox?

Also, enabling smooth-scrolling makes it a much nicer experience also. I hope someone can tell me how to update the flash and browser.

Thanks!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] uskr:
Sorry to bother you, but I can see you have the webtop dock.

Do you have adb installed?

Would you mind to do an "adb logcat > log.txt" , then connect the phone on the dock, then disconnect it after a couple seconds, and send me the log.txt file?

The reason I ask that is because I am trying to figure a way to get it working without the dock, using only the HDMI cable. That would help a ton.

In regards to update flash and the browser, the only way to do it is if you can find a ARM version of those packages. Firefox should not be hard, worst case should be possible to setup a gcc environment and port one of the ubuntu sources direct to atrix.

[Wildfire General] faraonu:
Hi all,

I have a weird situation. I have a wildfire with latest hboot, made s-off with the xtc-clip. First step I've made after s-off was to flash clockwork recovery via terminal with flash_image. At that moment I've put the 3.0.0.5 version. After few days I decided to change that version with 2.5.0.7. This time I did it via Rom Manager. The weird thing is that if I reboot the phone from Rom Manager I enter in the version 2.5.0.7. If I go into recovery from bootloader I enter in 3.0.0.5. So this mean I have two different versions of clockwork in the same time. How is this possible? Anyone has this issue too?

Thanks

Sorry if this was posted before....I've searched the forum but I didn't find anything related to.
[Wildfire General] NickHu:
It's called fakeflash; ROM manager stores CWM 2.5.0.7 locally, and when you reboot via it, it "flashes" CWM 2.5.0.7 and boots into it. It doesn't actually touch recovery.img, kind of like a buffer. It's more of a blessing than a curse anyway, as you have easy access to both; and you can use Amend (Useful for radio updates).
[Wildfire General] faraonu:
Oh, I've got the idea and yes indeed it's not a curse to have both, I was just curios how that happened :)

tnx

[Fascinate General] fupamobile:
It downloaded randomly and says something like "phone will update, power down, and power up automatically for this special offer"---GREAT!! a SPECIAL offer that is ESPECIALLY ANNOYING!

I dont like how someone can just download something on my phone like that without my permission. when i want to update windows, I go and manually update it. i dont need someone to hold my hand.

anyway, it obviously didnt work.

1)it tried to reboot and it goes to the little android guy with exclamation mark and it says some failure to update message.

2) I just hit reboot phone and it goes back to my homescreen

3)it goes directly into trying to install again.

4)my only option is to postpone it for 24 hrs

What should i do? I want:

1) full control over my device(pls go verizon or whoever is trying to control my phone)

2)to fix this issue
[Fascinate General] chopper the dog:
Since you are rooted on a stock rom use Titanium Pro to freeze or un install Innopath Active care. What os version is your phone on now?

good day.
[Fascinate General] fupamobile:
its on DI01.

first thing I did when I got the phone was do the "how to root, install CWM, voodoo,...." thread.

I haven't updated it because the thing runs great and I was just going to wait until we have a super stable 2.2 to go to.

Is freezing innopath gonna cause any problems though??

I don't understand why this hasn't been addressed on this forum yet. not that I am impatient. usually these guys are really on top of things.
[Fascinate General] KitsuneKnight:
It won't cause problems. And what else can they do, anyways? The developers here can't automagically push changes to your phone! If you install any of the ROMs posted here, the updater won't try to update it, because it won't be there (or, like said, you can just manually disable/remove it).

You probably didn't see anything about it because there hasn't been a new update recently or anything, the last one being a fairly minor update shortly after the previous one was released to boot.
[Fascinate General] AlexDeGruven:
If you're still running DI01, it's probably trying to update you to DL09/EA28, which is the current highest version.

As stated, either freeze it with Ti or just move the .apk to name.apk.old in /system/app. Either way will prevent it from running, ever.
[Fascinate General] RacerXFD:
Well dl09 also fixes gps. It's nice.

Seriously, DI01 is obsolete. EA28 is better in every way. But if you chose to love your DI01, there is nothing we can do.

Also, adrynalyne's super clean rom is pretty nice. But again it's up to you.
[Fascinate General] neh4pres:
But do NOT let it update you while voodoo is active

Rocking dj05 and jt's voodoo 5
[Fascinate General] fupamobile:
ya i want to update, but I am waiting until we have an update that will get me to a stable 2.2 that has some more roms to choose from.

i actually havnt kept up to date with how 2.2 is right now for this phon, how stable is the leaked version?? my phone just runs flawlessly and I want to keep it like that. the main reason I would even upgrade is just to get flash and fix gps(which i dont really have much problem with anyway)

thats what i was affraid of.

since i have voodoo on DI01, i heard it was a pain to update to anything, is that true? dont i have to completely remove voodoo and clear my phone then update?

anyway, i will definitely just freeze stupid innopath, get your hands off my phone verizon and/or samsung!!

thanx bros!!!!!
[Fascinate General] RacerXFD:
Well even if you have voodoo, you can flash dl09 all in one odin which will bring you up to spec with the public accessibility.

The current 2.2 works wonders in comparison however... I don't know how I lived without it.
[Fascinate General] chopper the dog:
I bet he is still on voodoo .02. So that adds to the misery.

good day.
[Fascinate General] KitsuneKnight:
DL09 is one (minor) release behind. EA28 is the current latest public release.

Personally, I feel like I jumped the gun with EB01. GPS works worse, it's a bit flakier all around, and I had a hell of a time dealing with restoring SMS (I had to make a backup, restore an old one, back the SMS up, restore the eb01 backup, then restore the SMS... only to have the SMS app auto-delete all but the 200 latest!).
[Fascinate General] fupamobile:
i am assuming that is the leaked 2.2 update???

this is the reason why i havent upgraded to 2.2 yet. it seems a little unstable. all the other public updates are too minor for the work that i have to do to get them.
[Fascinate General] KitsuneKnight:
EB01 is the latest Froyo leak (DL30 was the first&previous, and was far buggier). I upgraded to DJ05 because there were more rom/theme options available for it at the time than DI01, as well as hoping it'd fix the horrible GPS performance (it didn't, nor did EB01). I upgraded to EB01 after it was out for a while because, well, I wanted Froyo (plus, I'm going to be using Push updates for an app I'm working on... and C2DM doesn't work on Eclair).
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GaBoRoOtSs:

Anybody know how to get into Bootloader mode on the Inspire 4G? I have tried holding the Volume Down button while restarting and all the phone does is vibrates and reboots normally. Am I missing something?
[HTC Inspire 4G] shawn1224:
You're doing it right (Vol Dwn + Power)

Just make sure to hold volume first before you hold power.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jasonyump:
Make sure you have fastboot turned off in sense.
[HTC Inspire 4G] IsraelR:
I press volume down, then select "restart". Keep holding power down until you get into bootloader.
[HTC Inspire 4G] h_22_accord:
I take the battery door off to power off, then slap it on real quick then hold volume - down, then hold power button. It can be a little tricky to do. Then ull be in bootloader and have four options to choose from. Ive only done it manually this way because i was in boot loop. Was scared ****less the first time i got boot loop, cause i wasnt sure if there was a way to get to recovery manually lol.
[HTC Inspire 4G] synnyster:
Are you guys booting into clockworkmod? When I hold down volume and power it goes into that.

[HTC Inspire 4G] h_22_accord:
If you manually do the volume button and power button trick it should put you in bootloader mode then you can choose to boot into recovery, ive never had my inspire boot right into recovery unless i choose it in rom manager.
[HTC Inspire 4G] JUSMEJOSE:
i tried doing that but it just goes to fastboot the reason that i want it to go to bootloader im trying to re-flash it back to stock...
[HTC Inspire 4G] POPPY SEEDE:
Power your phone off. Now that your phone is off hold the volume button down and tap the power button. Now you should be in bootloader mode. If your trying to get into recovery mode download rom manager from the marketplace.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Nickovtyme:
be sure you have Fastboot turned off in Applications.

Another thing you can do is download Quickboot from the market...then boot into bootloader from there. Quickboot>bootloader :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] hyun18:
Is it really that difficult??lol, for me when I hold the power button while phone is on, it gives me multiple options to reboot , including bootloader and recovery...

If your phones off , then just holy the vol down and off key .

Oh and I have fastboot on and I have no problems.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
That's because your running a ROM with an extended power menu. Other people might not be.
[HTC Inspire 4G] hungmung:
A lot of the people that are having problems are probably running sense roms and have fastboot on. I got confused by this at first because with fastboot on it doesn't actually shut off so the down and power method doesn't work

Sent through the power of Cthulhu.
[HTC Inspire 4G] diasas:
You can download quick boot from the market. Makes so much easier booting into recovery.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Staticpunk84:
yeah Im trying to do that I am able to boot in where it shows Hboot and then you have other options to choice from but Im not all able to select anything it just scans and then go to the scan mode and ask if i want to update
