AFT firmware mod for HTC Dream (Android 1.5) - G1 Android Development

AFT firmware mod for HTC Dream
This reflash is hybrid build from leaked files and sources of Magic reflash.
* I do not include any radio's in my build. If you are coming from an RC33 build, you can get the latest radio 2.22.19.23 here This is the same radio as the one that came from HTC.

This Build based on the The Dude's Cupcake v0.8 NO WIPE Regular and have some changes:
Changes made by AndroidFan team:
• All packages in reflash had been optimized like in other official Android releases. Due to this the final size of the image had increased. It made us to delete some useless stuff. But this optimization saves approximately 20 Mb of user data and improves system performance and startup time.
• Chinese font, voice dial files and several standard ringtones were deleted to save extra disk space.
• Busybox was also removed (unfortunately there were no enough space for it)
• 2 on-screen keyboards
• Russian language is installed by default and can be switched to English easely.
The most important improvement – is optimization. Dex files (with code) are being extracted from package during its installation. After phone-targeted optimization they are put into cache folder. All non-final reflashes comes with usual packages which should be optimized before usage. During optimization process all non-optized code is being replaced by ready-to-use one. This saves storage space and improves performance.

Is performance the only upgrade to this build, or are there any other functional changes/upgrades/enhancements?
Sorry I don't speak Russian, so forgive me for posting the question here rather than http://androidfan.ru....:D

Actually not only performance, we also tried to improve stability and added ‘garbage collector’. We are just at the beginning of our work, further releases are to come. Btw, there is a special thread on our board for English-speaking users.

Good luck with that. It took me 10 minutes to find that thread. I had to find the forum link in the menu through trial and error.
I don't see this catching on much, especially with this kind of support. If a noob can't figure out how to rename a zip file, I doubt they're going to search a russian website for the answer.

The first line of the OP's post is a link to the thread in their forum. Granted, yes, all the buttons and links are in Russian and definitely something users from here are not going to want to deal with.

I clicked the link at the bottom of his post which was originally androidfan.ru, but has since been changed to forums.androidfan.ru. I must have been wrong assuming the first link in his post was a direct link to the actual firmware, considering that's what it was labeled as.

We caught that the first time.

Has anyone tried flashing this, yet? I'm curious as to how it compares to Haykuro's 5.0.2G.

Hello, me and Dude have been talking and it's become a bit of a problem.
I have been as respectful as possible to support xmoo, his source, and everyone that is helping me.
Dude has been respectful enough to mention his work is based off mine, and tell you what parts exactly are based on my work.
You haven't given anyone from the community any credit. Please don't be a mooch. that's just lame.

Trust me when I say russians can be quite rude unintentionally but yes some designated 'props' are in order as well as a "spec" list of where the build is.
Haykuro- I would pm this but I have a feeling your box gets overcrowded so let me just say a considerable donation would be made to you if you could produce a build based off the current G build that would allow my wife to switch back and forth between russian and english as she chooses for text etc.

Its great that more and more people are creating custom roms. I love options!

it would be even better if everyone would work together on one build instead of a half dozen different builds....

Dude's G build has Russian locale in it. Look at the screenshots, see if you like it.
There's an option of installing Russian VK (3rd screenshot) into any build, it was on the market at some point... not anymore though. I still have it somewhere. Let me know if you need it, I"ll send it to you. It's fairly simple VK, no spell check, no auto correction but it does the job.
Good luck.

no chinese fonts. no busybox....……

Hey come on you guys. This guy has come on here to show us another version of Android. Lets discuss his version instead of Dude's, or JF's or Haykuro's. We can discuss theirs in their threads.

[TOOL] The Android RΩM Database v0.5

This is a little program I wrote that people wanted back when android roms first came out, and now I have had a little time to be able to put it together. What this is, is a database that I will fill with complete information regarding android roms that users may want to download.
It diminishes the need for users asking the same old questions like "Does wifi work?" or "What Android OS is it?". This would save a lot of posts and time. The screenshot below is both colourful (yeah, I'm canadian) and satisfying to the users that wanted this to ease their use. All downloads through this program are DDLs, meaning Direct Download Links hosted on a couple of Fast Download servers that should also eliminate any rapidshare waiting or time wasting on megaupload looking at it's glossy orange-ness. Anyway.

Any type of critism welcome, I've been through just about all stages of it by now.
Here we go, Please report any problems. I have done programming the first beta. Well, it functions, so it should be a 1.0 But I am waiting for feedback.
To be an uploader/moderator for tAROMDB, you must make a request within the application after registering. After doing so, PM on this forum, or mine, of your username that you requested with, and i'll bring you upto speed on how things will work as an uploader or moderator. It's very easy, and it looks great overall. As a reminder, this database has like no ROMs in it, so don't download this unless you are willing to do some uploading, or just want to check it out.
Download Windows v0.5 Here
Download Linux v0.5 Here
[Changelog]
Version 0.5
+ Added Tactile commenting/ratings (98% complete)
+ Added more ROM information available for a single rom
+ Updated GUI to reflect the new information added
+ Added 2 ROMs for example (32A, New Radio)
+ The system uses FTP for uploading and downloading, it makes things a bit more accurate.
++ Kernels will be added soon
++ Themes will be added soon
Version 0.2
+ Added User Accounts
+ Added Ratings
+ Added Comments
+ Fixed Back button
+ Added "World's Smallest (in kb) MP3 Player" on right click
- Taken out Submitting restriction (Anyone can now submit and upload a ROM)
- Re-coded the navigation from scratch
I'll have to apologize for making the ROM Submitter not as...pretty as the other pages. I just felt it really isn't needed too much. But, if you really want me to do it up, just let me know.
I'd be willing to help maintain the database as much as I can.
EDIT: Maybe a 32A / 32B option as well. Allows people to not get confused. Make it so that Yellow is 32A and Red being 32B or something. So that you can't make any mistake
Sorry I should post the other screenshots. All categorizing has been done. Including Phones + Their phone model types.
**Updated with how the categorization would work (Forum/Thread style with Downloads)
- Phones can be added, Subcategories/Models can be attached to each phone, and Roms and Themes can be specified.
How would you be maintaining this database for users? It would have to read from an online server would it not.
Yeap, and I'm going to include a "Submit A ROM" Button for select people and devs. So it eliminates people spamming it with multiple duplicates.
Well if you need a hand maintaining the database, I would be happy to help.
Thanks. I will put it up for download when I finish Setting up the "Submit ROM" section. PM me your IP. :/ Only reason I ask of this is to only allow YOUR IP to be able to see the section for adding roms No malicious-ness.
Look, my ROM is in there! I'm famous!
Lol, your ROM is actually a wicked example for my programs tests.
it will be awesome, we need this.
Nice idea, but not original...
Look at
http://db.androidspin.com/android_build_information.asp
they categorizing roms but it's messy...
Your work may be better, if you want to continue project...
I got the idea FROM androidspin, and BECAUSE it was the ugliest implementation of categorized roms. And plus, it's a web app, meaning it uses PHP. PHP has its limitations. As opposed to desktop applications that could do a shiz load of more. I'm almost ready to release this thing. I'm just finishing up the Submitting and categorizing.
I added Camera,Wipe, and Sync as per requested by many people through PM. Thanks.
Please continue developing and please release this! This project has alot of potential, and it looks awesome.
I'd be happy to keep the database up to date. PM me if you want my IP adress.
PM ME if you want your IP address added to access the submitting features. Too many people to PM, so whoever wants to help, PM me.
Hi, you should put two categories under magic 32A. One for 3.xx.xx.xx radio and other for 6.xx.xx.xx if you havent already
Regards,
Eyegor
good job .. how about puting req for each Rom like spl and radio and any other special req
one more thing : can u make a form that can be filled by devs ( an nfo like file ) and recognized by ur program so that any new rom can be added easily
This is a fantastic idea!
A rom repository that hopefully would work across XDA, HoFo, Modaco and so on
maybe you should add a link to the forum thread that is the project home for each rom, so people would know where to give response on the rom.
I am looking forward to discovering new roms to play with once you release you program.
Are you going to add the possibilty to rate roms?

That is exactly what I am doing right now. Since a LOT, yes a whole lot of people have been requesting a Section on SPL & Radios, that's going to make my life a lot more impossible. It means I need to re-program everything to setup for new types of categories. Well, I don't have a problem with programming stuff, I can't live without doing something so I will do it, but only if enough people agree to this program NOT being released for a little while longer.

Well, I have my own forum, I could just shove all the roms individual stuff there. But, I was thinking. What if I added a comments response system within the program? Like, how the android market has comments. Hmm.. wow, more re-programming. Crap. Alright. I'll make it away so that it can be added on later. But for not I can work on the main things to get this done. Which is submitting roms, and displaying them in a nice GUI interface.

Well I suggested that in my first post. I don't know how helpful it would get if i'm going to add comments. Hmm... Find me some nice.Stars... No wait! Omega symbols...yeah. That's grand.
On the developments on the actual software, I'm going to have to recode everything. Not really everything. But the category system, and the submission system. I'll replace the first post with the New pictures of the new systems As they are finished.
I have decided to put the categorization of SPL and Radios within the roms content field. So where all the checkmarks are, will have SPL and Radio somewhere there displaying what type of radio and spl is needed or...perhaps. Recommended.
EDIT* Okay, everything is just about done. All that is left is the Uploading system which uploads files to a fast download server. Release is closer, then people will be able to populate this. I updated the Original Post with new images of what it looks like After adding the SPL and Radio. And I AM aware that the submitting a rom window is VERY VERY ugly looking. It's not meant for the public to feast their eyes. Just for submitters to get roms submitted.
Well, I have released the first beta of this program. Please be gentle. Check the original post for download details. It's fairly small for an app that does so much. Have fun, for now... Infact, I have programmed the Android RΩM Database for Three different Operating systems....oh yeah.
hmm, as for the those submitters. Your IP's have been added and are now able to submit ROMS. Please be advised that you should start the upload of a ROM before entering any information. Uploading uses a custom encrypted FTP Protocol that might be slightly slower then your regular ftp uploading speed. But, the servers are as speedy as foggy light :/
Anyways, patience helps when uploading. I hope you guys can populate this program to help everyone.
Downloaded and ran it a bit.
Quite a nice app i must say, but i've found a bug. I've entered cursorsense rom just to see how it works, went back, selected 32a again and entered another rom. Now at this point the rom selection buttons didnt disappear but they stayed on the screen even after pressing back. So it was like i was able to select htc magic and amon ra 1.6.3 donut (as if it were a phone).
Thanks for all your hard work
P.S the white letters on orange background are not really clear

[DEV] CDMA Hero Kernel Source

The CDMA Hero kernel source is out as you can see here (22 Jan 2010).
Direct download source here.
Mirrors:
Mediafire: link
DarkTremor: link
Gigasize: link
TurboUpload: link
and so the floodgates have opened
Well folks here it is. I am going to bed. Its 415est. I bet by the time I wake up u crazy devs will have ripped this **** appart limb from coded limb. Good luck.
I don't know a whole lot about this so excuse the noob question but does this mean we don't have to run 1.5 anymore and can finally have an up to date operating system like 2.0 or 2.1??

We already have 1.6, 2.0, 2.0.1 & 2.1 ROMs out for the CDMA Hero, but the release of the kernel source means we have the means to improve on the performance of the kernel, porting to 2.6.29 (which is the true kernel 1.6 SDK4, 2.0, 2.0.1 & 2.1 use) & proper drivers for all the hardware.
Just on a side note, it's weird but HTC double tarball'd the source.
IT'S A TRAP! lol.
^ lol...i been refreshing the HERO CDMA Forum's all freakin night..waiting for the devs to show up LOL

How do you mean? I see a bzip-ed tarball (.tar.bz2).
Man it's nice to finally see this. First step: finding proof of kernel modifications and therefore HTC's months-long violation of the GPL!
Sorry I screwed up my last post I know we have those roms available what I meant was we will finally have a fully functional 1.6,2.0 or.2.1 correct?
Thank you for the mirror -- I was repeatedly unable to complete a download direct from HTC, and was starting to get worried. Your mirrored file seems perfectly intact, however, and for that I am grateful.
Cheers!
Something tells me the devs here are gonna have lots of fun with this over the weekend!

as much as I agree with you on we need to find that they actually did violate GPL I dont think that they should be hassled about it at this oint just document the facts. What was it exactly that they violated how long where they in violation. and keep a link to the "Attempts to get kernel source code thread" so that if the issue does come up again then we have actual documentation on their practices with open source code.
Just my opinion
Very exciting
very exciting indeed. finally...we can say thanks to HTC

Any one else notice all this useless crap..like a CDRom driver?? WTH.
EDIT:
There is a lot of stuff in here that seems useless, mostly stuff for a full linux kernel. We should surely be able to make the foorprint drasticly smaller if all this stuff is getting compiled into it. Why would we need PowerPC or IA64 stuff???
http://geekfor.me/news/sprint-kernel-compiled/
I just wanted to post and say that I have successfully compiled it (thanks to toast for the pep talk ) and I am currently running a beta of fresh rom that is using the new kernel. While it is 100% stock and no changes have been made to it, this test will help show what we can do with it! Keep an eye out for exciting things.

By the way, toast and others have noticed (and it seems I can confirm) that HTC's power management might be closed source and isn't included. This means that even though the screen turns off and it reports that it's sleeping it might drain quicker than normal.

I agree, sort of. I'm not advocating for punishment, but this has to stop here. HTC should have been checking in these (rather minor, as far as I can see) modifications into to a central repository (GIT) where they can be used, improved, etc. The kernel is now months older and better, with hundred/thousands of updates, and now this stuff has to be merged. Apart from the relative pain of doing this, it highlights how unhelpful HTC's release methods are.
They have to be made to understand that this is unacceptable. An open letter, perhaps, showing line-by-line GPL violations does that.
What I want may be different from some here: I want a universal kernel that compiles and runs everywhere (with device-specific configs, libs and "drivers" added as needed). That's one of the powers of Linux (kernel), working on a common code set, improving it together. There are kernel hackers doing amazing things for Android (look at the cm-kernel commits to see what I mean) and we benefit from none of them if we are stuck without code or hacking a codebase from four months ago.
Sorry, this must be residual frustration still at work

I completely understand however hounding them now about just how late this release is does nothing productive. As I have heard several people say, if it becomes to much of a bother dealing with everyone they may just decide to drop the system all together, and that in my opinion would be a shame becuase the do make a very nice product. If we just keep this in mind and keep a link to all of this then if/when they release another cool device without releasing the code when they are supposed to then we can refer them and anyone else that may catch wind back to this to prove that they have a history of violation. and that may get farther than starting from square one trying to pressure them for the code for a defferent device.
and as much as you may and many others may want a universal kernel, I doubt that will ever happen just like with linux look how many variations there are to it. which I feel is one of the many reasons that it has not taken more market share from windows.
So HTC's change window is every 4th Friday. Please enjoy .

[ONLINEKITCHEN] CyanogenMod (STABLE) [UPDATED 30/03 - v4.2.15.1]

By request (and since my other half runs a HTC Magic, hehe), following on from my Hero, Pulse and Nexus One kitchens and most importantly with the permission of the legend himself that is cyanogen, i'm pleased to present a 'MoDaCo online kitchen' version of Cyanogen's v4.2.15.1 ROM.
Note: As with all of the kitchens, this online kitchen is currently only available to my MoDaCo premium members (those who have signed up to MoDaCo Ad Free or MoDaCo Plus) as it is not yet running on an infrastructure that can support a huge number of users. I don't collect donations - signing up for a MoDaCo premium membership supports future development in many areas and gives you access to great services now and exciting developments in the future!
This is the first CyanogenMod kitchen - if there's something else you'd like configurable in the kitchen, post here or in the kitchen topic and due to the nature of the system, changes can be deployed very rapidly! Of course, let me know if there are any issues too, this is v1 after all.
Click here to view the Online Kitchen at MoDaCo.
Update: a prebaked ROM for Dream / 32B Sapphire and one for 32A Sapphire are now available for ANYONE to download! Sample the kitchen's delights for yourself!
Base configuration (standard CyanogenMod with HTC IME) - download MD5: f1e923f8992911e0c5e8fcaae64ff069
Base configuration (standard CyanogenMod with HTC IME) for 32A devices- download MD5: c65de4774d9b4b704d928cf7f189927d
Enjoy!
P
Update: the online kitchen is now running on new dedicated hardware. Please bear with us as we tune performance and configuration and report any issues via PM!

very nice
Looks pretty cool =)
this is pretty cool.

While I appreciate the effort - you basically used Cyanogens ROM to make a kitchen so you can profit off it. This is all just a way to sell your subscriptions.
I like a lot of the stuff you do, but this is kind of not cool.

Because this requires special infrastructure on the host to glue the pieces together and sign the package, requiring nontrivial amounts of processor time, then must serve the custom file, requiring nontrivial disk space. Neither of those is FREE.
Though a potentially useful variant would be to cache every ROM it produces for up to, say, 48 hours, with the countdown reset each time that configuration is requested (and served immediately from the cache). Classic time/space tradeoff, there, but if certain configurations are popular, probably worth it. Though, for all I know, Paul does this.
This is quite cool and similar to something a couple of us proposed on the TheOfficial AOSP/ADP/TMO thread. We ended up with theme profiles, which are heavier (larger download) but don't require the infrastructure. Always love to see alternate solutions, though!
I think you guys are misunderstanding..
modaco is not charging for CM Roms, he is charging for a service he provides. In this case, it is making it easy for people to 1) stop clogging this forum with repeat posts.. over... and over......... and over again, and 2) customize their ROMS to their liking without having to invest a lot of time figuring out how to themselves.
By saying he should be giving this away for free, you are essentially saying that someone like Red Hat should GIVE it's support away for free. I mean, how can a company make a profit off of open source software that other people have helped write??!?!?
This is no different. That is how companies like Red Hat make their money, it's their bread and butter. Not to mention, they provide Certification avenues, this is just one other way they are "making money off other peoples hard work", according to the outraged ones in this thread.
i personally think this is pretty neat, considering I have been through the learning curve of rooting my phone and trying to customize a ROM; It worked but it took me a bit before I got it right and actually was able to use my update.zip. Thanks Modaco
Listen, I'm saying anything about what he has done or how much time was put into the project.
But before I start my argument let's give it a couple days to see how it does; assuming the stats are correct on his site.
If you don't wanna use it, don't.
All the kitchens to date have been for my ROMs, I put Cynoagen's ROM into a kitchen - with his permission - because a) people asked and b) I find it useful.

Because this requires special infrastructure on the host to glue the pieces together and sign the package, requiring nontrivial amounts of processor time, then must serve the custom file, requiring nontrivial disk space. Neither of those is FREE.

Yeah, i'm caching each ROM produced, but the number of variants is HUGE and takes a LOT of disk space, so caching isn't actually as valuable as you think. With my Hero ROM IIRC I generated about 500 ROMs before I started to see any real benefit from caching. Crazy!

Now, this is something I might be interested in, depending of course on the type of functionality it will have.
By the way, I don't want to rain on your parade but I just think your current version of the project should be free; that's all.
I remember someone in the the XDA WM forums created a kitchen for roms and cabs and it was pretty cool.
I like your project but will it only work for a specific Cyan rom?

Just tried it out of curiosity (also been following the original thread)...an amazing amount of work has gone into this...it's quite amazing...although I don't think I will use it myself.
ITs great! I just want to know how to set my countrys weather...I live in sweden...
It seems to be nice!
Downloading now. I'll post my thoughts in a bit.
THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR THE HARD WORK!!!
Just downloaded and installed all is ok you have to login to some community for the gold stuff (i didn't do that ) but it seems pretty solid runs nice but the weather will not let me set my area. very nice launcher though can't wait to see the updates
Please anybody knows how to get the weather for sweden? I can NO chinese and the weather app integrated is in chinese!
some of the parts I still find chinese. if the pop up comes up you can just hit cancel and the program still runs. overall neat. custom version with some stuff toned down would be nice
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
REEEEAALLY hope you didn't use my scripts or steps for your translation because that's really lame to ask for donations and not even give a thank you.
you didn't made this app and you ask for donation? not only that, this app is a paid app and u want it to crack it? you are so messed up.
wait so is this a cracked version?
keep in mind this app was NOT a paid app until this english release appeared. it was a free app - I had the chinese versino yesterday.
please correct me if I'm wrong - since of course I don't speak chinese it's possible that it was only a trial version in chinese and this informatino wasn't translated properly by google translate. But it certainly was believed to be a free app until now.
Either way - posting a donation link is not "wrong" according to precedence on this site. the work to translate it is huge and the guy here did put a lot of work into it at the start of things, so fair enough.
just my opinion - but it seems that some people are very judgemental about other people's concepts. if you don't like a donation link, don't donate.
I don't know about you, but if I do something that takes some time, I won't refuse if someone wants to pay me for it. a donation link makes that an option to the end user. nothing more, nothing less.

no.... it's an english version which the author has now decided to make a trial version of what is now a paid app.
it seems like a really impressive launcher! makes much more sense in english LoL
still a couple of things are in chinese though so I won't be paying until I see it actually fully translated. but it's very very impressive. I bet my wife would like this if it was really fully translated.
nooo you guys are confused
The app IS free but to use it you have to pay for a subscription to the actual maker's website. Has always been that way.
This guy took some scripts I made over in the evo thread to pull all the chinese strings and allow you to re-inject them as english.
All he did was pretty up some lines of text and run my scripts. But the actual app itself was released in english on their own website.
ok i just want to be using something that is someone elses app if that makes any sence. also it would be nice if we could ad some widgets to this like audio set cpu ect

not asking for donations, or for a crack version is a choice for anyone who wants to do it, if u dont like something just dont say nothing because if it wasnt for me NO ONE WILL KNOW OF THIS APP.

thank you, some people judge and see things a different way,
like i said before i did not create the app, but put some time to it, and sorry to be negative but people gotta learn that i shared it with others to enjoy, because im pretty sure NO ONE would of know of this app if i never would of shared to the community.
thanks for those who enjoy this trial version, hopefully more features soon from the original developer.
can't wait for the cracked version
Looks interesting, but I did not buy an Android phone to make it look like Windows.

Great work! It looks good, but to be limited to one screen and also not being able to use widgets, seems like it is a very limited. More so then even an iPhone!
Yeah no widgets and the weather which I like to have is a paid extra only.
hope you aren't using my scripts i made for translating and asking for donations that's pretty lame
not my cup of tea to limited imho
Before donating to aalopez you need to check out the thread Windows 7 App (Translation). The original developer is http://www.joymms.com/English and Samspoon was assisting with the translation because the developer was delayed in getting the English version published, but it looks like the developer has the english version on his website now. I had an e-mail conversation last night with [email protected] and he had just downloaded the English version.
aalopez pdf looks VERY similar to the Readme.htm file you get when you download the app from the following site, http://www.joymms.com/English/. WOW!!!!
I was wondering why another Win 7 thread was created.........

My apologies if I spoke out of turn...just looking at your post it didn't seem you were giving credit to the original developer. Now that you have the following on your original post I believe it makes it much more clear of your intentions.

http://www.joymms.com/English"
Please except my apologies if you feel I slandered your good name or intentions.
Now to the topic of this thread...the app is really cool but I had issues with trying to register for the Gold Membership, there was no way to continue after putting my payment info. I have sent an e-mail to the developer asking for assistance.

I'm also showing you some love. I've been following this app since the beginning. I think it's awesome. Would like to know what particular features get unlocked with paid version. BTW... sunny with a high of 70 today.......in Bangkok!! Any fixes for the weather gadget, or is that one of the paid for features?

Meh, I was excited, but didn't really like it after using it. I couldnt figure out how to put it in landscape. Im sure it will get better with updates though. It reminds me why I preferred my phone over my loptop. It is something new and innovative. Im sure the dev will make some good money off this at 10 bucks a pop.
Long press desktop,settings,rotate.
