CYAN 3.6.2, trouble with scrolling? - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

First off, let me apologize, if this is the wrong place to ask, I checked for a dedicated thread for cyanogen 3.6.2, but didn't see anything, at least not in the recent pages.
Be that as it may, here's my problem: I'm running an imported US G1, on the orange Siwtzerland network. I recently rooted my phone and flashed the cyan 3.6.2 rom to it. While I'm very much impressed at the added functionality, I'm having trouble with vertical scrolling (mainly in long list-like pages, in the browser, market or twidroid). The screen seems to 'hesitate' and 'catch' when I try to flick it with my finger. Sometimes it then starts moving, sometimes it flashes down to the bottom of the page at very high speeds.
I never had this trouble with the stock 1.5 f/w, and I'm wondering if this is a known drawback of cyanogen 3.6.2, and if so, which other release the experts would recommend.
For sake of completeness, here's the exact version numbers off my phone:
Model number: Android Dev Phone 1
Firmware version: 1.5
Baseband version: 62.33.20.08H_1.22.12.29
Kernel Version: 2.6.29-cm [email protected]
Mod version: CyanogenMod-3.6.2
Build Number: dream_devphone-userdebug 1.5 CRB43 148830 test-keys

dude...why the hell are u still wit 3.6.2? where have u been...3.8 and 3.9.5 are rolling along...

So which would you recommend? I was under the impression that the 3.9 releases were still pretty unstable, maybe I'm mistaken.
I have no use for A2DP, so that's a non-issue. What I need mainly is a smoothly working UI (no hangs or freezes).

Phone Won't Boot In Overclock Mode

Hello --
I have come across an issue that, as far as I have looked, doesn't have a dedicated thread. I've seen a few people with similar issues, but wanted to post a dedicated thread so that all of us can try to get some help. Thanks in advance to those that are willing to help
Down to business...
For the life of me, I cannot get my phone to boot an overclocked ROM. I've been mostly running DC roms, so, naturally, when the the .29 OC'd kernel was released, I flashed it. It threw my phone into a wicked loop where it wouldn't boot past the black-and-silver HTC screen.
Out of pure curiosity to see how an OC ROM would perform, I tried a number of other ROMs that advertised that they were OC'd. Every single one of them puts my phone into the same boot loop.
Does anybody have any ideas as to how I might be able to approach getting this fixed? I am at a total loss. Could it be a possible hardware issue?

I and others have had the same issue. I subscribe to the thread for the kernel in hopes that the issues will be solved.
I also had the same issue,
But then I flashed the recovery image from the darchdroid thread and
it booted right up, I'm wondering if it was an issue with godspeed or something.

Interesting. I think I tried that recovery image yesterday before I flashed and rooted the official 2.1. I wonder if that recovery image will still work...?

I dunno, the penultimate update worked in 1.6.2 (And I was like "HOLY CRAP I HAVE AN OC/AOSP ROM??? DDDDDDDDD"), and then the most recent worked in godspeed. I don't think it's a recovery issue. :/

[Q] Rooting a G1 running Android 1.0?

A while back I rooted my G1 which was running 1.6 and I successfully rooted and installed cyanogenmod. I wasn't impressed with the battery life so I decided to switch roms. I did something wrong and my phone pretty much reverted back to unrooted Android stock 1.0. That was a while back and I have been pretty much hanging with it since. I could do generic things such as send and receive calls, send text messages, play music off sd, etc., but I'm tempted to find a way to root my phone again and with a diff rom. Is there a way to do this with android version 1.0? Can I also do this without a data plan and just wifi?
Here are the specs for my G1 if anything:
Firmware Version: 1.0
Baseband Version: 62.33.20.08H_1.22.12.29
Kernel Version: 2.6.25-01843-gfea26b0 [email protected] #6
Build number: kila-user 1.0 TC4-RC29 115247 ota-rel-keys, release keys
forget it. I got cyanogenmod up and running. Close thread.
Before this is closed, try out the Froyo for Trout rom. Its stable, and faster than CM. Really recommend this.
Anything will be better off than CM (that from my experieces) But the new CM (XDA Mod) is promissing.
@ TheIneffable - I would suggest (if you still wants to use CM) to look at [ROM] NameLessFroyo (CyanogenMod variant) by NLJ or [ROM][2.3.7 GB][18.10.11] BananaBread v1.2 DS +cMTD(Based on CM 7.1) by banana4444.
But if you would like to try other ROM, I suggest [Rom][2.2.2 AOSP] DREAMteam Froyo v1.9 "I'm hungry...." by DreamTeam (AKA:Green ROM Projects) or FroyoMelt (see my sig for link) also by DreamTeam (with Customization by ldrifta).

What guide are you following? What is your current situation?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
i also have problem rooting T-mobile htc G1 with android 1.0
i downgrade it to unlock from data plan and to be able to use on my network , but now i cant wind file manager to install for this android,
also all tutorials that i find about root are incomplete because all download links for files are dead

I9000M Bell Vibrant Cyanogenmod

This noob successfully rooted his Vibrant thanks to some key members here. Now I need your help for another matter. I installed Cyanogenmod 7 nightly and it worked! I did it this way: http://www.theandroidsoul.com/cyanogenmod-7-cm7-samsung-galaxy-s/
The only problems that I'm having now is:
1)ClockWorkModRecovery does not want to reboot so I can't install anything else to it, which brings me to
2)I can't install Google apps like the Market. I went through this procedure:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHgZNnHdrSA and it only took me so far. It came to the home screen and it said that the widget had a problem loading. I couldn't get it to reboot and install after that. Please help - once again.
3)Should I flash another base band version? I know you guys were telling me to get the UGKG3
Latest info on the phone:
Android version: 2.3.7
Baseband version: I9000XXJVK
Kernel version: 2.6.35.14-g7a2264a [email protected]#1
Mod version: Cyanogenmod-7-11162011-NIGHTLY-Galaxy S
Build number: GWK74
Please and thank you guys.
Update:
So I switched to the Stable version. I'm not sure if this was the right move, but help me out here. the only thing that's changed is:
Kernel version: 2.6.35.12-gdf10700 [email protected] #1
mod version: Cyanogenmod-7.1.0-Galaxy S
The only problem now is that the market app is there, but whenever I search and am about to download an app it has to force close because of unstable behaviour. So now I can't get any apps even though the market app is there...
So I tried Cyanogenmod 7 and even though it was blazingly fast and fun to play around with, I decided to go back to Stock gingerbread. Why mess with something that ain't broke, right? Regardless, it was a great learning experience and I encourage any wannabe enthusiast to try it out. I found out it wasn't for me and that's ok. Thanks to the guys here for your help. I'll try other things. Later.

[Q] SGH-I987 - New (to me) Device - Questions

Hey All,
I'm a Sprint Nexus S 4G user/Nook Color user, been around for a while, I've flashed a number of custom ROMs to my devices so I've been around the block a few times when it comes to doing all of this.
I'll be receiving a AT&T SGH-I987 (7" Galaxy Tab) soon, so I figured I'd start doing some research on the subject of installing custom ROMs on it so that I'm well informed before I blow it up.
I'm not an AT&T customer, so I'll probably just use the Wi-Fi capabilities of the device for the time being (unless Sprint upsets me and I move to a GSM carrier).
I'm fairly certain the device will be in stock condition when I receive it, so let's make that assumption for the time being.
I presume the first thing I'll do is check whether it's running 2.2 (Froyo) or 2.3 (Gingerbread).
If it's running 2.2, I'll want to check to see if the bootloader is signed/locked, and if it's locked, I'll need to unlock the bootloader using the patch here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888071
If it's running 2.3, it sounds like I can pretty much just root the device with the following guide and go from there.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=812367
After that, I'm wide open to flash pretty much any ROM from what I can tell.
I've got enough Android devices around, so I was thinking about buying the media dock for this one and leaving it connected to the TV as a web browsing device, amongst other things.
Because of that, I'll probably try (though it will take some serious self control) not to throw Ice Cream Sandwich (AOKP or CM9) on it - keeping in mind that TV out isn't yet working in either of these ROMs (the biggest reason to go the ICS route would be for the bluetooth keyboard/mouse support...).
Looks like as of January 2012, Overcome 4.1.0 supports HDMI output, so at least I'd be able to get it up to 2.3.6.
Any thoughts, suggestions, or ideas the community can throw my way?
pitcherj
Sounds like you have it covered. If you start at teamovercome.net you can get the stock safe gingerbread, tools, and instructions. The stock safe gingerbread is rooted and has the CWR in the kernel. From that base you can go anywhere.
ranger captain,
Awesome!
Thanks for the sanity check!

I've been looking for this kind of guide but it lacks the ROM recommendation.
Atleast you have made us newbie a good start..

it definitely have help,
I got a link below for the guide to install Overcome ROM, but I can't see any picture,
I've switched PC and still the same so I guess its the site that has the problem..
I hope someone at the overcome dev. fixes this so that the guide would be of more help than me guessing what might appear on-screen.

Thanks do much mate!
now on to modding my tab...hoping that everthing went well and not brick it he he he...
I hope someone could get the FM radio to work here.. I'd love to have it..there is a work in progress though...hope it would be a go,
basing on their teardown of the tab there is a chipset for that..now I don't know the reason for samsung not to activate it..
hi..
I'm able to follow the guide given at the overcome net
I was only able to get up to #6 which boots my tab up to JQ1 GB condition..
When I try to flash the overcome kernel v4.0.0 tar file, odin reported fail and
I can't boot the tab (I think I soft bricked it) the screen only showed a figure of cellphone and a pc with an exclamation inbetween.
I connected the tab to odin and again flash to GB stock safe v5 tar.
thankfully the tab booted to stock GB again.
Anyone know whats wrong?? Help please..

By the way don't be afraid if any of you softbricked your tab, its a nice learning experience plus gives you alot of confidence to tackle any future problems.
Well, just received the tab.
It's running 2.2, so thar be dragons ahead.
I'll let you know how it goes.

Hey All,
Everything went well!
One small hangup that may be helpful to others - when the instructions on the teamovercome page say to "sync with kies at least once" - you don't have to transfer data or anything, it just means have kies open, connect the tab, and make sure the drivers install successfully.
The bootloader patch went well - my device only allows installing signed firmwares, but that's fine.
Ran with teamovercome 4.1.0 for a while, but decided since I don't have a dock with HDMI for it yet that I'd give humberos a try.
Very simple install - copied the three zips to internal storage, flashed with CWM as instructed, boom.
Very nice guys, thanks for all of your help!
pitcherj
As promised here is my experience with the overcome rom
overall everything is nice and smooth
the battery seems to last longer..
the transition is good gives you a feel of ICS like feature..especially the music where Google music was in place of the stock player..
When you switch on the tab you are greeted by the overcome logo (nice)
the notification tab was give a nice overhaul and good looking widgets
overall good performace but the gyroscope mechanism seems not to work here..
(any ideas..)
the temple run i installed won't tilt to collect coins he he he..
overall I'd give it a five star...

[Q] screen - black rendering issue :(

Hello, first i would like to say thanks for having me here. I'm a new android user coming from iOS and I couldn't be more happier!
I just received my galaxy note n7000 today and everything was setup perfect and worked, until the Software Update. I noticed once the updates were done black or any dark images/videos weren't rendering correct. It looked pixelated and patchy only when it's dark.. I don't know what I did wrong or how to fix this issue? Do i need to return my phone or something? please help any suggestion would be appreciated!
Seems like lockscreen, music album images and videos are mainly having this issues :/
Thanks for your time.
