So I've been away for just a day (no phone, no pc) and when I get home I start browsing all the different sites I enjoy, finding anything that may be interesting and I feel like Ive been slapped in the face, I see several articles about malicious apps, nothing new really, and as I do often go on various spouts of randomly downloading apps, Im still over cautiously paranoid but this droid dream as they call it and the information (albeit lack of) surrounding this latest round of malware has me worried, although I do tend to wipe my phone twice a month (as I said I am rather paranoid) Im just wondering what the general opinions are and any tips that could be offered to help avoid problems like these, and as I have yet to do so and Im feeling quite ungrateful at this time, Thank you to the devs and community, Im either running a factory reset, wiping the phone for some patch or update, flashing a new kernel/rom that Im actually relieved that my phone never keeps anything long enough to be exploited, if it wasnt for all the helpful people, tutorials and advice I would undoubtedly be running a stock phone and Im 99% sure i would have a some malicious app installed (I almost downloaded one of the very apps listed on androidpolice for example)

I never download programs that are just out. If a game sounds cool, I may wait a week or so to get it. I also run MyLookout and have it scan every night.
[EVO 4G General] shift_2win:
Use anti-virus software like Lookout. Search the market for anti-virus apps. Its really no different than using a computer. There are thousands of viruses for PCs. Nothing to really be paranoid over, there are ways to avoid them, and/or fight them. Just use your better judgement when downloading apps, and just to be safe use a trusted anti-virus app. But generally i'd say we are still pretty safe.
[EVO 4G General] SolsticeZero:
I never use anti-virus apps on my phone, as they can bog things down. Just take the same precautions you would on a PC. Don't download stupid **** and you should be fine. :b
[EVO 4G General] DoctorComrade:
I don't have an antivirus on my computer and least of all my phone. Common sense is the best antivirus.
[EVO 4G General] deciplesteve:
This. I see no need for virus software. I have run my Win7 pc since I got it (@ Win7's launch) with no virus software and its still just as good as the day I got it. FireFox seems to block everything I need it to. And on my phone the most I might download would be an album or a movie and I only do that from trusted websites.

[EVO 4G General] Khilbron:
Common sense doesn't save you from the identity thief that drives around neighborhoods looking for wireless signals to access, a good thief can crack a wpa secured router. This is where you want your anti-virus software, these days they almost always come as an "Internet" Security suite, which includes intrusion detection and prevention.
[EVO 4G General] jeremyritzmann:
Or you could secure your network adequetly.and btw most identity theives are probably not trolling neighborhood networks. They are the people with access to mass amounts of accounts.ie cable companies, subscription services, and the like.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milk10man:
Hey guys I'm very new to all this, I just used the z4root (Permenent root) method on my g1 dream and I would like to try a new rom on it but for some reason rom manager will not flash clockwork mod recovery or amon on it, it keeps saying that an error has occured when trying to access special privileges or something like that. does is matter if I'm using the free version or not? and do I need to put a custome hboot or bootloader on the phone as well? I've been reading for the last two days through these forums and I'm really lost and confused on how to do this. I understand that I must flash the rom from the custom recovery but can I get to the recovery through the hboot/bootloader once the custom recovery is flashed? Please help anyone. I appreciate it.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnson8cyl:
Never used z4 so cant really help there but i do know that you need a custom recovery to flash anything. So the question is can you get a recovery flashed. Can you boot into the os and log in? if so maybe you can get a terminal from the market and flash amonra from there with the instructions in his op. Not sure but worth a try.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevenc19:
z4root dont work proplerly try unviersal androot
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milk10man:
Cool, hey johnson8 I really appreciate your help...so you're saying that the z4root has something to do with my phone not being able to download three recovery?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnson8cyl:
It might. I rooted mine the one click method a long time ago. Before these apps came out. Never liked rom manager either to be honest. I would try the androot the other Guy suggested really. See how it goes
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milk10man:
Just tried it and it worked just fine...just flashed froyo yoshi...been booting for around 5 minutes...should I wait longer or pull the battery?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnson8cyl:
I give it 10 before I do anything
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milk10man:
Waited for 15 and still nothing...trying super froyo.v.8 been about eight mins and the same thing..could it be my boot loader or should I use amon ra instead of clockwork to flash? A little frustrating...Dangit!:(
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnson8cyl:
Go to ezterry thread on 14 MB hack and fastboot flash new amonra recovery the radio and spl. Follow all instructions in there and try again. That will get u a good recovery new radio/spl and more ram comes with it. The new roms need that combo.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milk10man:
Oh, ok that sounds awesome! I'll give it a shot and let you know what happens...thanks so much...you rock!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milk10man:
Sorry about all the questions..but I'm not sure about how to find that thread...where would I locate out in this forum?

Thanks again.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnson8cyl:
It's alright. I was new once. G1 development section. Probably 2nd page
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milk10man:
okay. I really do appreciate your time.. thank you so much.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnson8cyl:
No prob. Let me know how it goes or if u need any help. I'm here
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnson8cyl:
Boot into fastboot and post the info in top left corner. Radio/spl ect.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milk10man:
Ok sir I found the thread but I have no idea of where to get the radio/fastboot and all the other stuff you mentioned in order to flash them..as I said...I'm very new at this..btw..does this process require me to type any code..the thought of that scares me to death:(
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnson8cyl:
Well. Not code but commands. Google how to set up sdk. I'm about to drive home from Tennessee. If u need help I can help when i get home.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnson8cyl:
ok I'm home

This is the guide you need to set up adb on your computer.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=532719

If you have any questions i will try to help. After this is done you should be set up to run adb and fastboot commands from your pc.

Do everything in this guide except the recovery image. You will be doing that via ezterry's thread with amonra recovery. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions. Good luck
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milk10man:
Ok will do..I appreciate all your help and have a safe trip..
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnson8cyl:
No problem. I check frequently so if u have any questions I'll try to answer promptly. Also u will see shadowch31 in ezterry's thread among others. He can help guide as well. Just follow instructions exactly and don't freak out and pull your battery during any of the process even if it looks hung. Good luck
[Samsung Mesmerize] shakeyourmatt:
What kernals and roms are some of you using?

Or what questions should i ask now that I've got EB16, CWM, PNP for EB16?
[Samsung Mesmerize] vluhd:
haha, not so fast big shooter.

there's only one rom and kernel out for EB16. PNP is all for roms right now, and the EA11 voodoo kernel is our only non-stock kernel.

maybe the question you should be asking is, "how do I develop for this?"
[Samsung Mesmerize] shakeyourmatt:
Well then....how can I develop for this?! I downloaded sdk..will do some learnin tonight
[Samsung Mesmerize] v_lestat:
there is a Sticky topic in the mesmerize General section of how to start developing

[G1 Android Development] Madride4life:
I will try it today and let you know :)

thank you for the ROM
[G1 Android Development] jianC:
Sorry for slow download guys! When I finish my build, I upload to ge.tt which allows end users to instantly download while I upload. R3 is also broken -_- ; will upload fixed again

Please stick with r2 atm until r4 is done uploading.
[G1 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
Why the mandatory 96MB Swap and 512MB Ext4?
[G1 Android Development] Bavilo:
Wow...this rom is so horribly slow. Amazing how Roms can still get worse.

Slow UI, no improvements over 2.2.1, Market doesn't download anything. No Superuser installed. No busybox installed either. Commands such as a simple "cp" doesn't work.

Horrible.
[G1 Android Development] shadowch31:
Honestly with EzTerry's odex'd Asop and Richies F4T 182 de-odex asop build you are a long long long way off lads, nice effort but there is a lot better available already. And as for it being Danger SPL or custom mtd patch needed for what 90% of people are using 2708 with 14mb extra ram then this is a massive home goal.

Sorry just speaking the truth.
[G1 Android Development] jianC:
No, thats allright, I haven't applied much stuff to it yet.. I just uploaded it the day I compiled.
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
i'm impressed, just needs a little work. Also, those figures you have for free ram is with or without swap??

do you include a 2708 kernel? is that the default one? that could be a little clearer.
[G1 Android Development] jianC:
Sorry for the bugs, it is my first native phone rom.. Those figures are for free ram (physical) with the stock system without google apps with 2708 kernel. I did not include 2708 kernel yet but I will very soon! With the google apps and without the 2708 spl/radio, i got around 30 mb of free ram.

The mandatory ext4 partition and swap is for the R5 (uploading now) with a2sd but su still does not want to work. The "su" file was not included in the aosp compile for some reason and it messes everything up..
[G1 Android Development] shadowch31:
I like the fact you have changed the OP now about it being fast or faster ;)

Look forward to see where you go with this fella, maybe a look at EzTerry's Froyo Parts.apk if it can help you out. I ported it with Terry's permission to F4T 182 and may be a useful additional update for your rom in the future to add additional functionality.
[G1 Android Development] jianC:
Yeah sorry I overestimated ;)

35 MB of free physical ram with market, pinyin IME, and google messaging running :) DangerSPL and stock radio, no 2708.
[G1 Android Development] highlandsun:
Well, I'm curious to see Froyo 2.2.2 on my G1 anyway. I have it on my TP2 and the major difference I noticed is that 2.2.1 doesn't have wifi tethering in its Wireless and Networking settings but 2.2.2 does. (Not really a big deal I suppose, since I already have a tethering app.)

I'm kinda curious about why Lazlo or the others haven't merged 2.2.2 yet.
[G1 Android Development] shadowch31:
Simple answer - Go ask them :D

My guess is nothing more than a reduction in memory footprint??? And Wireless tethering is so easy using the google code website (just for those that don't know) http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/ last time I remember wireless tether included in a rom was back in Donut days.
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
link is broken, tried chrome and IE thinking it was the site...
[G1 Android Development] jianC:
Link works for me... Using Google Chrome

Updating rom soon (this week) with EVERYTHING fixed. No more lags and bugs..
[G1 Android Development] shadowch31:
Nothing wrong with the link, works fine. I suggest taking a closer look at your pc :p
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
i was using an adblocking hosts file. who the hell doesn't? especially on xda... LOL i guess some people like ads
[G1 Android Development] jianC:
Ok, R5_Stable released. It is COMPLETELY STABLE with 97% bugs fixed. The UI is smooth and fast after all dalvik-cache has caught up on first boot. I have already messed with odexing and it works but will be in next release(s) because I still like my themes!

Note:

-DO NOT use QuickBoot application as it shuts down android incorrect (at least on this build), it works, but after you press "reboot" and android loads, up, android immediately crashes, and then reboots again and works fine..

-Now includes Live Wallpapers

-Launcher pro is default launcher

-seperate google apps for legal reasons (yeah again)

-On first boot, please wait until dalvik-cache has caught up (about 2 min) or until the phone has received radio signal for rom to run at full speed

-Pershoots .11 kernel added now

- 30+ MB of free physical ram with danger spl!! :D 60+ with 2708+ radio/spl/kernel.

-Requires Danger SPL now

- battery life is good but does not last 2 days

- setCPU recommended with ondemand at 122mhz-614mhz s (lower if you want to save battery but still runs fine @ 528mhz)

- usb tethering does not work unfortunately (the one built into rom)
[G1 Android Development] shadowch31:
Fella just because you use a host file please don't blame the links or assume no-one else is using them when links work for them. Not my fault you blindly use the host file and have no clue of how to configure it to allow certain things. The fault is the user because a computer works on a simply principle of it can only do what YOU tell it too. ;)
[G1 Android Development] Sik-1:
smooth but on the mytouch wen using any other kernel it breaks wifi and the stock kernel doesnt support the new radio
[G1 Android Development] :
Hmm, will compile specifically for sapphire soon. This build does not have the proprietary files for the sapphire, only dream, that is why..
[G1 Android Development] edward0119:
Thanks for your rom,but I can't download the file,what's wrong?
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
i attempted to fix your thread rating. I love this rom. if you vote for yourself, you might get 4 stars :P
[G1 Android Development] :
Did you try all links? like zShare? If it does not work, I will upload too mediafire.

@jcarrz1: haha, i don't really mind the ratings, I never really expected too much out of this rom at first anyways :)
[G1 Android Development] edward0119:
I have downloaded the rom, but after I flashed my G1,it stucks on the first screen.

radio/SPL:2.22.27.08/1.33.0013

I don't have custom MTD and I have SD Card partitioned

what should I do?
[G1 Android Development] :
What should you do? How about learning what it is your flashing and realise its not compatible with the 2708 radio which has been mentioned a few times in the whooping three pages of this thread which shows you couldn't even be arsed reading through. The lazy arse nature of users these days is really starting to piss me off.

Anyway to save anymore stupid posts from you heres a link to a kernel, download, flash, boot up. It is that simple.

Some reason, Japanese IME was selected under language and keyboard, and I was getting this pop up menu at the bottom when I started to type. I disabled it, and it's fine now, but why was it selected to begin with? There's also something else in Japanese that I just deselected.

I just figured out why, cause I just restarted my phone and those two options are selected again. WTF? How do I stop it from doing this?
[G1 Android Development] :
You need to download either "CustomMTD" recovery partitions or simply re-flash the compatible radio/spl (in this order)

1) non-US radio (HTC provided; I assume you are located in China? ): http://sapphire-port-dream.googlecode.com/files/ota-radio-2_22_19_26I.zip (ONLY FOR 32B)

(if you have 32A, download the ROGERS radio here): http://briancrook.ca/android/rogers/dream_update/radio-3.22.26.17_dream.img

2) and DangerSPL: http://sapphire-port-dream.googlecode.com/files/spl-signed.zip

You can go to the text box, long click it, and then click "Input method" and then click "Android Keyboard". It should be defaulted the next few times you reboot. I like to experiment a bit with the Chinese keyboard so that is why I left both keyboards in there (in case anyone is Chinese or Japanese, download the app "MoreLocale2" from the market)

Hey I've been using your rom for a couple days and its great! Only concern I have is that screen rotation doesn't work anywhere. :( running on Mytouch 1.2 (Sapphire)

Edit: It would be nice if it had apps 2ext and maybe swap? :) Just saying! Lol
[G1 Android Development] :
Its fine

I have Apps2 EXT.. But not swap yet. (keep the partition there for future :) )

The screen rotation does not work because it was never meant for the htc sapphire, I will see if I can get around it sometime (soon!).. Busy with CAD work right now so I can't get onto Ubuntu to compile for sapphire branch from AOSP..
[G1 Android Development] edward0119:
Could you pls catch screenshots for your rom?

[G1 Android Development] moises93:
Sounds great! Thank you for support! :) Great rom by the way! Fast and light on battery!
[G1 Android Development] roccoadam32:
does this run better than the tmus and mytouch tmobile roms?
[G1 Android Development] tribalartgod:
I would like to know this too! :-) TMUS is BY FAR the fasted 2.2.1 ROM I have run, and am still running.. I have tried almost EVERY ROM for my phone, and keep coming back...if this ROM is similar, speed wise, then it is DEF a winner. I shall try it later, but would still like this info as well please.
[G1 Android Development] :
Hmm.. It's kind of hard to answer.. but its fast (don't know how fast). I compared it to my father's HTC Sapphire with the stock T-mobile 2.2 rom and the performance is similar.
[G1 Android Development] mrtausif2004:
Hi i m totally new with this ....

just tell me how to install this build because i have rooted my phone already.

thanks
[G1 Android Development] azrash:
Read theguide at the first post.

First check your phone's radio and spl version through fastboot (power off your phone, then press the camera and powerkey together)

2 install amon ra recovery and DO A NANDROID BACKUP

3. Flash the rom and the necessary kernel if your spl n radio is different

Google up all these steps for clearer explanation or simply look for a guide topic in xda
[G1 Android Development] mrtausif2004:
using hboot 1.33.2005

radio 2.22.27.08

and installed the build using recovery but after restart g1 keep on restarting...

help needed...pleasse

Auto-Installer

Loving the ROM, I'm currently working on an auto installer for new people who don't know what do do (we've all been there). It'll be a simple plugin the phone and click. I'll give it to e334 when it's ready. Expect it to be out this week or next week. Happy Flashing :cool:
[G1 Android Development] azrash:
Did you follow the instructions given at the first post?

Do a superwipe first before you reinstall
[G1 Android Development] tribalartgod:
Ok... A few have asked how this ROM compares to TMUS, including myself. Well...It doesn't compare at all. It's actually BETTER!!!

Not exactly sure how people are having issues, as everything worked fine for me the first time.

THIS ROM DOES WORK ON 2708 Radio/SPL COMBO

*I use biffmod's test kernel

Here is what I did to install, as well as my own personal rating:

1. Download ROM and Gapps and put on root of SD card

2. Wipe in fastboot mode

fastboot erase system -w
fastboot erase boot

3. Reboot into recovery

4. Wipe again, through recovery (wipe everything EXCEPT your ext partition)

5. Flash ROM

6. Flash Gapps

7. Flash Kernel (If on 2708 like I am)

8. Reboot and wait

My rating of this ROM

"Extra" features - 5 out of 10

Usability - 10 out of 10

Speed - 9 out of 10

Stability - 10 out of 10

Themability - 4 out of 10

Battery Life - 9 out of 10

**Themability is low, because this ROM is VERY VERY stock. It IS possible to theme this ROM, but not as easy as most others.

All in all, if you want a daily driver that WILL NOT fail you, has great battery life, and is just as fast as your own daily routine...Then this is the ROM for you!
[G1 Android Development] Svensemann:
So installed it now! Wow Smoothiest Froyo ive Tested so far! Battery Life for a Froyo ist also great! But i wished there were Battery Life like Super D :-D

So one Problem ivet got, when i press 2x Menu, i come to the Homescreen, so the Lockscreen is senseless! Wich Kernel is best is for Froyo roms nowadays? Ive got no Plan?
[G1 Android Development] plumppp:
currently using froyo by laszlo, but looking forward to your next release

that's a lot of free Ram :)
[G1 Android Development] edward0119:
do you mean the radio is 2708??
[G1 Android Development] tribalartgod:
Wow! That is a serious typo on my part. :-/ ...Thanks for catching that. I'll go back and edit that now
[G1 Android Development] mrtausif2004:
i was using an other rom previously and had installed many apps in sd-ext4.

Now i m shifted to this rom and want to use the apps installed in sd-ext4 so that i dont have to install all again....is there any help....?
[G1 Android Development] :
No, the apps will not be wiped in sd-ext4, but only in Data, Cache, and System.
[G1 Android Development] edward0119:
it works fast and the battery life is very good!

surprising!
[G1 Android Development] :
Next build coming out soon! It will include ALL the locales available for android including zh_CN. No more need for "MoreLocale2" application. It will also have the "reboot" and "reboot to recovery" function. (Sorry, postponed again but locales added)
[G1 Android Development] azrash:
any chances of the froyopart suggested by shadowchi?

great work on the rom!
[G1 Android Development] ph0b0z:
Uhh, i'm really really interested in testing this on my Magic! :)
[G1 Android Development] edward0119:
waiting for your update.
[G1 Android Development] :
FroyoParts will be in R7 build.. PartsB by ezterry cannot be directly flashed onto my build because the builds are different, most importantly the init.rc script is different, so the permissions are wrong. I cannot add the "reboot" or "reboot to recovery" option because apktool will not compile framework-res correctly..

I will also be adding an AOSP donut and eclair builds later after froyo is "finished" (roms can always be improved but I will leave it at a certain degree of usability) ;)
[G1 Android Development] konnspiracy:
You know the Extra stuff in setting under lazlo's froyo? I think thats Cmparts?

If that can be put into this rom and still have that much ram left over I will deff be switching.
