Prepare for stable 550mhz ROMs across the board! - G1 Android Development

Just bringing this to the forefront, as it doesn't seem to be getting much attention - but it has to be as significant as the 10mb ram hack. This ROM is blazing fast in my opinion, even though it's an older cyanogenmod. Use SetCPU and choose "motorola" for device.
There is currently one stable 550mhz ROM available for download. The kernel should be compatible with donut and eclair ROMs, from what I gather. I had nothing to do with this work, I just want to see everyone's Dream come True! Hehe.

Direct ROM link:

Wipe, Flash, and then use SetCpu, choosing "Motorola Droid" for device, if I remember correctly. You should be able to clock it at 550mhz.

Sounds good, currently I run superD how Can I use this?

take the boot.img from this and stick it into superd, then resign.

How is battery life? anybody?

super d
im going to try it right now but i have one question. it shouldnt mess with any programs i have correct? i nandroided yesterday so im not that worried just dont wanna have to mess with it during the game lol

Here is the boot.img

Too much information

I should just be able to apply this using Terminal Emulator I assume?

that works too. put it on your sd card and type it into any terminal on your phone:
Code:
flash_img boot /sdcard/boot.img

Actually, I had someone flash it. It hangs at boot on most roms

Also Im assuming you would need to disable the cpu scaling in user.conf for this to work?

Thanks man. I wasn't 100% sure due to I havent flashed anything thru TE since cyan 4.2.9.1.

Sorta Works on OpenEclair
I flashed it on my OE1.1.4 and it booted, but was kinda jerky and wireless was unable to start.
But gave me hope and I look forward to maybe WesGarner getting a shot at compiling a complete ROM with this included!

Im bout to try this out with SuperD.....will report back

What devices?

Looks like it may work with Magic 32B as well as that phone has the same processor as the Dream / G1 (MSM7201A).
Anyone know for sure - or tried it?

*edit* Its booting up now...hopefully it doesnt loop

It should work on Dreams and Sapphires. I wouldn't flash just the boot.img to your current ROM, just wait for an official release. My guess is that within 24 hours there will be a few of them out.
I have officially decided to hang on to my G1 a bit longer in light of this new development. What I'm really waiting for is HD2 on Tmobile, with an android rom. ETA 2 months

jachero for magic

I know that with jac hero on the G1 is available that uses swap partiton on the SD card and runs very quickly and is fantastic rom. The Hero builds for the Magic are a little poky yet. Does anyone know how I can change or get a rom like the one on the G1 from justanothercrowd. His rom is fantastic and I don't personally know how to make the changes that he did. If anyone can help me make those changes or know where I can get a rom like that that would make everyone with a sapphire be a Hero and with better looks. That rom is spectacular.

Well, you can just grab that rom and use it on the magic ( Google Ion ). The only thing that does not work is the WIFI rest is all working fine. I am running his rom on my google ion. Just dont flash the SPL ... just install the update.zip and u are good to go.
Cheers !
i dont realy know if it works, bu u can extract the wlan.ko from a hero build for your firmware and flash it into the other
We are talking about http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=534479 right? =D i would love a port for the 32A magic.

Yes thats the one I am using (2.73) on the google ION ( 32B board ). I also tried what kingchris suggested of taking the old wlan.ko from a previous Hero build, but that did not work.
yea it is a great build but the rotation and wifi doesnt work like mentioned above can someone please get this build over to the magic asap with those two kinks worked out
I cannot get the jachero 2.73 to work on my 32A Magic. I have tried multiple SPL's and no dice. I am booting into recovery rom, wiping everything, and applying jachero update.zip.
It sits on the HTC Magic screen and does not proceed. Any ideas? All other Magic-specific Hero builds are waaaay too slow for my liking.

Just download and:
adb remount
adb push wlan.ko /system/lib/modules/wlan.ko
Now that I have flashed the boot.img permanently this is a great ROM!

rotation
how do i get the screen rotation to work im on a google ion 32b board
and how get wy working this on 32b
wlan.ko form other hero roms wont work
Is anyone running this on a 32B? How does it compare to fatal1tys rom? Must be faster then that?
It's certainly getting a lot of love on the other forum, if we can get wifi working on 32B then it looks very very promising.
@hakeem9 and @hakeem9;
1) did you guys flash any spl?
2) did you swap partition your sd card? since we already have more ram than the G1 and the 32B users...

New way to fix bluetooth on Hero?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=580486
Good find...will it work?
Someone try it?!
Wow sounds scary - flashing radio from another device. Scary.
But we want bluetooth so much, don't we...
I want BT as much as the next...but I wont be the tester lol, I have bricked 1 out of 7 G1's that I have rooted, was my mistake as I was tired from a 14hr shift at work, stayed up late night before and boom, didnt do radio first.
Its almost as if not having BT is worth it if you want Hero on a G1...Kinda lol
Someone needs to try it. It seems like a logical fix.
just to be sure? android dream is 32B right? and 32A is sapphire with more ram

Yeah, 32b is basically a g1 without the keyboard. That's why it makes some sense for this to be a fix. You should try it.

I just tried this. After flashing the 32a radio and the new recovery, it does not get past the G1 screen.
Had to revert. Maybe someone else will have better luck.

It wouldn't even let me get to the new recovery to flash a 32a ROM
I followed these steps Eugene posted. Maybe I missed something. Good news, its recoverable at least:
Code:
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot erase system -w
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery-RAv1.2.0G.img
- press MENU to power off! (do not reboot)
- hold HOME and POWER to boot into recovery mode
- apply update
EDIT: I'm thinking it didn't quite take the radio image even though it said it did. It still thought it was a Dream 32B instead of 32A.
i got a bootloop. im pretty sure i followed the post almost to the T twice i tried. sounded good in theory....
even went to a hero rom (king) prior to instillation just to give it a little more hope.

[WIP][DEVS] Motoblur 2.1 Port - Fail, Dev needed.

This thread is discussion about porting Motoblur 2.1 (Cliq Leak) to our devices. I've supplied my work below. Finish it if you wish, or use it as reference.
THIS DOES NOT GET PASSED THE SPLASH SCREEN. IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO FLASH THIS UNLESS YOU ARE GOING TO DEBUG IT.​
Done:
- edited boot.img (init.rc) (added init.trout, init.sapphire)
- a2sd (/sd-ext)
- oc'd kernel 2.26.34
- swap
- root
- Patched MTD Partitions. (THANKS FIRERAT & jcarrz1!)
To Do:
- Get it to boot. Almost done. Just audio issue.
Changelog | Issues:
Error Messages:
#demesg - "htc-acoustic: ioctl: invalid command"
#logcat - "Volmgr not ready to handle device"

I'm not responsible to what happens to your device.
Instructions FOR DEBUGGING:
- Nandroid backup before anything.
- Flash patch. (MTDBLUR-Patch.zip)
- Reboot to recovery mode.
- Flash ROM. (failblur-last-signed.zip)
Note: When flashing the rom, it will hang a bit near the end of the installation. Give it time.
Revert MTD Partitions (system: 90mb. cache:2mb. data: remaining.)
- Mount sdcard. Delete file /sdcard/mtdpartmap.txt.
- Flash FR-MTD-PartHack-recovery-v1-1_S.zip
- Reboot on recovery.
- Restore nandroid back up.
Have fun !
awesome. cant wait to see how it goes. i really hope people take this up. i cant stand stock and hero has seemed to die down. i personally didnt have a problem with blur. im big on social networking apps and blur is big for that. i really didnt mind it much at all and would LOVE to have a great blur rom. only problem with the cliq itself is that its a brick and moto keeps it locked up tighter than the house that is surrounded by cops in a "to catch a predator episode"
for those of you who dont know alot about it btw here are some of the new features,

Only thing that looks cool about 2.1 is the adjustable widgets, from what I've seen on the Droid, the launcher runs slow and looks a lil choppy. I can't wait to see this done though

your issues would be trying to actually succeed with a2sd at such an early stage. allow me to suggest shifted mtd partitions, see firerat's thread on the 1st page of this forum (usually)
it'll allow you to cram everything on. you'll have to edit the boot.img to negate the effects of a2sd support.

it likely will... they're a pain in the ass to port, and they're slow even when they work, so i don't want to waste my time. The only worthwhile things atm are 2.1 sense and 2.2. But good luck, if it shows promise when you get it working, i'll jump all over it.

the origional blur ports werent slow for first releases. i mean, im no expert when it comes to porting, but blur and pulse always seem to get little effort put into them. idk if its just the fact that the rom is so tied to the moto phones themselves or what the deal is that it makes it so its too hard for devs to continue progress on them. i just dont see how you can say its going to run slow and not be worthwhile without even seeing a preliminary release that actually boots...
idk, i just really hope someone will pick it up. if i knew how to do any of this stuff i would have tried my hand at it but i have no clue as to porting and i dont have the time with my work/family schedule.
sucks to the OP though. hope you can get a new sd card and a useful phone again.
I was never able to login or create an account with previous motoblur ports. :/

I got it back working. I figured out what happened. Something in my SPL was messing with my sdcard. I dont know how, but it was. It was making large qxdm_[time stamp].qm files each time i booted to recovery.
Solution: Get another sdcard, copy DREAIMG.nbh to sdcard and go back to 1.0. Btw, UI is ugly back then. lol. Then I rerooted. Reformatted my original sdcard. And now everything's working. I'll keep working on this tomorrow or Monday.

Port of the Mytouch3g rom that had a rom stock rom from the Wildfire S
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1025330
Rom link will be available again when I get a bootable version.
How to flash:
Go to clockwork recovery and wipe and format everything except sdcard.

Boot up and wait a while (might take about 10 mins so have patience)
Please respond to the thread with any errors that you encounter and also leave pics to for others to see and any pictures of errors encountered.

If you actually complete a GSM port of THIS! Wow that'll be amazing. I am curious though, since the mods frown on "coming soon" threads, what is your definition of "soon". I might actually enjoy sense if it was GB fast. Thanks for working on this! I know *some* devs have said they want this, but I don't know if you've asked them for help/teamwork. Not a bad idea, there's only a few devs left anyway, send some PMs maybe you will find some nice help

Hey if you're gonna port GSM roms it takes kernel work, why on gods green earth are you s-ON !?!?!?
EDIT: also, if I read that correctly, you are not able to boot? I hope I misunderstood you...........
EDIT 2: I now reread your posts, and remembered your earlier thread posts today "I don't know how to port a GSM rom" and your last post in that thread was about 2pm, this OP at about 5:30. I sincerely want you to drop this ROM, but I now doubt you ported a GSM rom in a few hours. I really hope my suspicions are wrong, but if you don't post a bootable ROM, well.............................
I need to flash something. This may hold back the shakes & the slobbering tonight.

based SOLELY on this post, I will not flash whatever you put up - unless of course others do and it works - but it won't I'm sure. You don't flip a frakking switch to go "off" And you just confirmed you have a zip that will do nothing. Booting up a ROM has NOTHING to do with the security state of your bootloader. Man this kinda reminds me of "webOS on heroC"......... Prove me wrong, please.

Well, again, proof? I have a few thoughts that may help you. First, get s-off. Then, these froyo and GB sense ROMs are HUGE and may actually need custom MTD partitions for a larger /system (see firerats). Third, booting a beast that big will take a WHILE. Still, proove me wrong.

I would recommend the eng-spl method, as it allows fastboot commands such as "fastboot erase system -w" which may help you flash these things after a clean wipe. How big is the ROM.zip ? That should tell you how large your system partition needs to be. I think the stock system partition size is 160mb. I remember in the beginning of the froyosense port it needed to be around 200 or so.....

just Got my Mytouch today !! i dev for the epic 4g but since i gained employment at Tmobile ive decided to get another phone just curious
how many rom/kernel dev's are there ?
lol.. we just got it rooted. Roms should be out within another month or so..
a month lol not even that long my dude
Well I saw CM7 is being ported by nightly to the sensation. You know the sensation and the mt4gs are like twins with different personality. Also to get a camera apk to work on other rom didnt they released the source for this phone on htc dev site.
Sent from my myTouch 4g Slide.
Yea, I suspect that the first beta roms will start appearing in a few weeks, maybe sooner. But I wouldn't expect stable roms to start showing up for at least a month.
The camera is going to be one of the things holding it back.
I, personally, would like to see some almost stock roms with CPU control....I would like to see sense go away, but it appears that would effect the camera to some extent. Either way, I'm happy to have root at this point. At least I was able to uninstall the bloakware and crap that I couldn't seem to stop running in the background.
Well when I get home tonight ill give a look into the source codes that htc released. I'll let you guys know if the frameworks is in it or not.

I can try and port a sense 3.0 rom for you guys, but i'll need testers for it. And to the above poster, porting from Sensation to MT4GS isn't easy, this device has WVGA, while Sensation uses qHD instead.

If you do this, try and incorporate the stock camera .apk from the tmobile rom.
I REALLY think it's totally sense specific like the other sense rom cameras.

That camera has been ported already, I'll try and include it, but i'll need testers since i don't have a 4g slide. I'm doing this to speed up development and i have experience with the whole porting thing.

Not by htc, by members of xda of course. I've used the MT4GS camera on a rooted ver of the MT4G's 2.3.4 build and it works fine.
And on another note, i've finished the alpha port, i'll upload it to multiupload
EDIT: Heres the test rom

I recommend that you guys do a nandroid prior to trying the rom.
DOWNLOADING - I'll keep you updated!
going to take my girlfriends's phone today and try the rom, thanks.
initial install has me hanging at splash screen.
redownloading to make sure it wasn't just a bad download.
interestingly, the install in CWM took like 5 seconds.. literally. so fast I couldn't even read what it was doing.
will report back shortly.
edit: second go-around with a fresh download and I'm still stuck at splash screen. formatted /data, /cache, /system and deleted .android and android-secure on my sd card prior to flashing.
do you need a logcat, Ace?

well I'd happily provide, but I can't get it. never run into this when trying to pull logcat.. judging from that error message, it sounds like /system isn't being written to during install? I dunno. let me know if I can help any other way, or if you have a suggestion for pulling a logcat another way.

restoring my backup for now.
I NANdroided, wiped data/cache/dalvik and installed from zip. Like pmcqueen said it flew through the install and rebooted automatically on me. It doesn't look like it actually rewrote/installed anything because my custom boot animation was still there from before. Unlike pmcqueen mine booted up fine, pretty fast actually, but acted as if I had just performed a fresh wipe of the ORIGINAL ROM; it took me through the MT4GS video and was the same rom, only as if I had just performed a factory reset. I wonder if it's clockwork that didn't perform the necessary functions? Are the files/folders/locations different on the MT4GS and that's why it didn't write anything? I didn't get any error messages... It's been a long time and I don't remember how to run logcats, so refresh me, and I'll hook you up. But it sounds like it just didn't install anything at all.
I think I know the issue, i'm working on it right now. I'm about to upload the 2nd test in a few minutes.
