No there isn't.
They seem to have fixed the SMS issue in the newer builds. Try JACHero 2.7.3, As far as I can tell this issue has already been over and done. Try Searching.
Yup, flash is hero only. Some people have been using services to forward texts the gmail, so you could look that up, hardly ideal though.
Btw, this is Q&A, it has nothing to do with development *sigh*
Well for now, Hero is the only rom that has flash support. But Adobe said October flash should be available for Android..
http://androidguys.com/?p=5757
About the SMS Issues with the Hero Roms: If you're working with ext2/3 try wiping those, wipe the phone, fixing the partitions (option in Cyan Rec 1.3.1) and then flash the latest JAChero2.7.3 (or 2.7.4 but it's not stable yet) These are steps i've see all over the JAC forum and it seems to work for them. I had a similar problem when flashing from 2.6 to 2.7. 2.6 was working fine but when I flashed to 2.7 thats when the SMS started hapening. I flashed a couple times and that worked for me.

I bought a g1 off of craigslist and it already had root. JF 1.4 ....
Around the time cupcake was released I updated it to jf 1.51
Now since there will be no more JF updates I wish to switch to Cyan builds.
I'm unsure of the proper way of doing this?
Should I go back stock .. unroot and then go thru the steps to load cyan?
Or is there a better way? A wipe?
I'm asking to be clear because internet access is strictly from my g1.
Although I can download all the files I need, I do not have constant access.
I'd appreciate any tips or pointing me to the proper thread.
Check the threads in Dream >Dream Android Development look for Cyanogen's thread on his release of 4.1.999, follow the instructions and you will be fine. I'd also suggest at least flashing Cyanogen's v1.4 Recovery Image over JF's, easier to flash any .zip on sdcard. So, new recovery image (use search option in forums, or look in the same thread i mentioned for cyanogen recovery image 1.4) then update to cyanogen's latest rom build
So simply flash a new recovery, then follow the cyan steps?
Cool, easy as pie.
I certainly appreciate it.
Thank you
Yup. just be careful that you dont boot off the htc recovery rom, or the steps to get to cyans rom become much, much harder

sleep is for the weak. also it is really hard to flash two things while in recovery it causes hemorrhoids and anal fissures.

I'd like to chime in here as well since I'm having such a hard time searching for info on the conversion from jf1.51 to the latest build of CM. The amount of posts are staggering!
So, I vaguely remember setting up apps2sd following the guide at the bottom of this page - http://yokohead.com/2009/06/how-to-root-android-g1-with-cupcake-and-appstosd/
Will CM automatically detect this partition?
Also, will I lose the google experience? I'm still confused as to where we are on that.
Thanks for your time! If anyone knows an updated post on this process, please point me to it.

Well the sticky by fingerlickin at the top of this section is a good place to start....
all you have to do is find the singleflash update in the dev section, backup and clear everything off your ext3, and wipe+flash the single update. you can restore the ext backup then.
also you should upgrade to cyan 1.4 recovery
to do so
su
cd /sdcard
wget http://n0rp.chemlab.org/android/cm-recovery-1.4.img
flash_image recovery /sdcard/cm-recovery-1.4.img

Thanks B-Man007,
After a couple attempts, all is working well. I'm thoroughly impressed with the snappiness of this build. Although it's only my second time updating a ROM, I'm going to blame the amount of posts for my hesitation and confusion. It was easy to just go in and do it.
I actually updated to the latest Amon-Ra(sp?) recovery. At first my Rom was running real slow and the recovery allowed me to update my ext2 to ext3. Loving it now!
The amount of posts does make it quite confusing i agree, especially with the high amount of conflicting posts
Ya ext3 is a must, but you could have upgraded from cyans too haha
cyan usually has the fastest builds out there though at times it can get very slow.
Another noob here. A few months ago I rooted and flashed to xrom 1.5. When I do a reboot, my recovery screen tells me its "CyanogenMod v1.4 + JF".
Since xRom is experiencing some problems w/ updates, I figured I might try the latest build of Cyanogen. I re-booted, went to recovery mode. Wiped. Then flashed the latest Cyan and even found the 1.6 ota on another site. Flashed both zips, then did a re-boot and it hangs now.
I tried it over and over a few times, wiping then flashing again. Wiping, then re-booting, then flashing the rom, etc. Over and over with the same results.
Then as a test, I tried flashing back to xRom... perfectly fine.
As another test, I tried wiping and flashing to another rom, the rooted stock option (the HTC rom version)... and got the same results as when I tried Cyan... just hangs.
Wiped and flashed again back to xRom... works fine.
So at this point, I'm thinking I need a more updated recovery rom? Any other possible problems? Yes, I did a search all over and this was the best thread that matched my problem.
If it helps... I have a T-mo G1, firmware 1.5, JACxROMv1.5, kernel version 2.6.29.6-jac-ski root. And I know many will slap their foreheads when I say this: But the SD is NOT partioned at all (kept trying and trying with zero success, so I eventually gave up).
Oye this isn't good, after some flashing and backups, my Market Application actually disappeared on my phone and it says it is not installed. I am not sure how to get it back as I already used 2 of my previous Backups. Hope someone has a clue.

did you flash the htc recovery image before you flashed cyanogen?
Yes I did, I had Market, I did a specific market dalvik-cache wipe from Cyanogen's troubleshoot page on his wiki. I guess my phone didn't register that until I did a backup (w. ext) and now it disappeared.
I had this same exact issue with my gmail apk it was gone ! I update cyan rom but when I updg I notice gmail apk went missing I asked help all said wipe and flash again I had no success tried pretty much everything I even used dreaimg got it back and update back to cyan rom latest at the time. And still had no hope so I switch roms went to dwangs then from there superD and all was back to normal
I fixed it with a wipe, flash the defanged base, then newest cyan ROM. Problem solved =]

I totally had same problem! For whatever reason, my Market, Mail and few other Google apps just BOOFED.. disappeared and wouldn't reinstall..
I wiped, flash the defanged-thinga-ma-jigga and then the latest Cyan Mod..
Success!!!
Here's a basic tutorial I wrote up to install Froyo on the N1. Seems like most are having trouble with it. All Files Included. Follow the steps as listed. Report any problems but I have yet to hear from anyone about any issues... Enjoy!
My Way also updates to the newest radio. New radio includes new Video Encoders so you'll want to try the new radio first.
Tutorial Here
Please Post your Results - Feedback. Thank You.
If you try any optional kernels, try .34 kernels, not 33.4. There is positive feedback w/ .34kernels + new radio. If you're using the Old Radio and a 2.1 Build then stay on the 33.4 kernels.
I know it's redundant to install CM first as it mostly gets overwritten. Again, these are the steps I took and it's what's worked for me and others. Don't skip steps, if you have any issues let me know. I also just updated the CM 5.0.7 to Final, it's not test-3 anymore.
Like I always say... ENJOY!
+1 - Worked like a charm
The N1 can't boot up and hang on the 4color logo after flash the CM 5.0.7, what can I do now ?

Did you wait for the radio update to finish (the picture of the box with the arrow coming out of it pointing to the android) and have it go back to the recovery screen again?
The instructions don't appear to make any mention of the radio flash & reboot. I also don't see the point of installing the Cyanogen ROM first, what's the benefit of doing this considering the majority of it gets overwritten by the FroYo /system flash anyway, and the gapps all get replaced as well. (Cyan installs nothing to the /data partition).

Try the tutorial again, the radio part wasn't the issue as you haven't even gotten to that step yet. I re-uploaded CM 5.0.7 to final, it's not test 3 anymore... Try again and post results please... and follow steps exactly. As far as doing CM first, it's not necessary, I just include that step because it's how I did it and it works great for me and everyone who's tried it this way.
Also, make sure you do the prerequisites first like installing the recovery
Why not just load up FRF50 straight up, why the need for the EPE54B, and CM 5.0.7?

Again, this is the way I used and it worked... Also, there are 2 update.zip's floating around. 1 Is an update from 2.1 to 2.2 and one is the full update.
Better safe than sorry
Okay... I bought a gently used N1 and the previous owner has it Rooted and flashed to FroYo... I am wanting to try out CM5.0.8t5, but I can't find any directions for going from 2.2 back to CM.
What are the steps I need to switch over? Thanks in advance!
just flash it man - maybe change the radio to the old one.
Damnit... I thought I was posting in Q&A... that's what I get for having too many windows open at the same time. Thanks for moving it.
wipe, flash CM, flash GAPPS....... Froyo radio works on CM5.0.6Test now
So... next question... does Adobe Flash 10.1 work on CM?
No the flash does not work on CM 5.0.8 t5. Since the new CM uses the foryo radio just download the the rom. wipe everything and flash away.
Can this new recovery be used to flash CyanogenMod 6.1.1??? I just got the new recovery update on rom manager and was going to flash cyanogenmod 6.1.1 and just checking. I thought the new recovery was for flashing Gingerbread roms?? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Vinny
I don't see why not. You can try and if it don't work you can flash an older version in ROM Manager

I am not sure about that. But one thing for sure is it is not good for MM's CM7. I have loop-reboot problem with this. I cannot even restore to any custom roms except my froyo stock. :-( Now, I have to downgrade to 2.5.x.x to see if my custom roms work again.
See development section.
EDIT: I successfully restore other custom roms using lower version of Clockworkmod. But the loop-reboot problem of MM's CM7 remains the same.
I guess I won't find out until I try. Newly rooted and going to give CyanogenMod a try. Know I am going to be happy as hell with it.
Thanks
The new recovery should be fine with flashing any roms. As for any standing problems with it, im am uncertain. You may want to wait 2 weeks or so to see if their are any problems from people using it. Personally I like Amon ra so i cant say.

A full wipe is necessary to upgrade to gingerbread roms from any lower android versions. Did u full wipe? + Dalvik cache wipe?

I used it to flash and install tonight's build successfully...
I have a "side question".
To flash any GingerBread flavor, do we need 3.x.x.x ou 2.5.x.x is working?
I haven't give CM7 a try yet, but I'm not sure if I need/want to upgrade to 3.x.x.x, 2.5.1.4 work well for me.

I got it too. No more crazy rebooting. I solve it by reformatting my SD card and recreating ext3. I guess 3.0.0.5 recovery messed up my ext3 partition. Now, MM CM14 is working pretty well. FYI, I am using 2.5.1.4 recovery.
Yeah it was working good till I try to do a restore, lets just say I;m up all night trying to restore my phone. I think my EXT partition messed up too as DTa2sd is giving me all kinda of headache.
doesn't work with MIUI for me!
don't understand that, but luckily its not a big deal flashing older versions!

I hear you there! That was me last night! DON'T USE 3.0.0.5! The only fix I found to actually work was to completely format my SD card and then re-partition it, then use RA and a fresh install. What a pain in the arse!
Same thing here. Switched to 3.0.0.5, and the next thing, my ext was fried and I had to reformat the entire card. Could be coincidence, but...
