Hey guys,
Well, a week full built on a steep learning curve for me. I have finally flashed my phone and got it rooted without breaking it. I did have a scare at one point where I flashed the latest SPL from Haykuro and it didn't work. My phone was stuck in a sort of limbo where it had a ROM that wouldn't get past the T-Mo G1 screen. Luckily I still had access to the recovery mode.
Anyway! Where am I now? Well I am currently running JACxHERO1.5r2 and have been since last night. God it's beautiful. However, not matter how much I try and convince myself, this ROM is still not fast enough for everyday use. So, where to now?
I think I want to use CyanogenMod-4.0.2 from now on. With the latest Radio and SPL on my G1 can I simply download the 4.0.2 update and flash it straight on there? I am planning to completely wipe before doing this by the way. I.E. Wipe data and reformat the partitions on my MicroSD.
I think I am getting the hang of all this now and am sort of expecting a:
Yes, that's correct Mike. GOLD STAR!

We'll see though... I've probably got a lot of learning to do yet!
You've answered it yourself: anytime you go between roms with different framework (i.e from AOSP to HTC) you need to wipe and reformat. If switching between different versions of the same rom (i.e from JF to CM) you can just flash away and wipe only if you're start having problems.
So yeah, wipe, repartition, flash away.

Got to be honest, I am loving this community. Everyone is so friendly and personal. Me a total n00b, lost in the world of ROMs and rooting, emailed Haykuro personally asking help (arguably one of the biggest players) and got a reply in minutes! Wouldn't happen in some communities. Love it.

I'm already on the latest Radio and SPL since I had to update for JACxHERO.
Surely I don't have to do it again?

Hello Kinda newbie question, maybe not? not to sure im new at this forum but ive heard great reviews of the knowledge of the members, i have a particular question ive looked around, but couldnt find anything on Downgrading the cupcake 1.5 back to stock or RC30, i mean is this possible by any means, im actually wondering because i wouldnt mind flashing the new HERO ROM on my G1 looks really interesting, if anyone knows anything or share their own thoughts that would be awesome!!
Once you have rooted your phone, you can flash to any rooted ROM... RC33, ADP1, Cupcake 1.5, Hero, etc

does it matter if i am already running the CRB43 build?
Sorry, missed where you said "stock" in the first message. So do you want to unroot and go back to the official software? In that case, flash the DREAIMG.NBH file again, then wait for the OTA update.
If that's not what you want.. Clarify, I'm confused.
well i was able to flash the phone back to RC29 i was rooting the phone but i stupid ass loads the new SPL that was for the HERO rom and now the phone is officially bricked no recovery mode or rainbow screen haha..!! fudge!...im thking of going to the tmobile store and just say i accidentally dropped it and phone shut off and when i turned it on it was stuck??? i did pre order the mytouch...but yeah man last night turned out to be a disaster now im stuck with a blackberry pearl for now lol.. thanks tho at least we learn from out mistakes
You can also try playing dumb and just say that there was a new update available and you hit OK, then the screen went blank and now it won't turn back on...

haha yeah thats actually a good one..but the phone stuck on the TmobileG1 splash, the is still under warranty so im thinking it would cover it..i got it 2 months ago i believe
Good luck with it, most people seem to be able to get a new phone.

yeah true...i do wonder but i dont think so...everyone usually gets their share i mean..like i bring in my dead phone, theres usually a factory warranty HTC covers the damage, tmobile loses nothing since most likely they get credited for the Returned Mechandise, if its a bricked phone HTC, theyll most likely flash the chipset via Jtag or something u know...kinda crazy in a way cause what do you think might happen if there was no factory warranty
Update!
they are sending me a brand new one lol! hopefully i dont fudge this one up!

Very new to root and roms. I upgraded to 4.0.1 very soon after having 3.6.8.1.
What are some of the neat things you can do? What settings have you changed? I JUST found out that there was another keyboard other than the android touch.
I did not know where this was appropriate and did not want to junk up cyans rom thread. Hope this is okay and apologies if its not. Just want to know what other cool features I am missing out on, and to also see what settings people roll with.

Best way to get the whole story is to compare the changelog of 3.6.8.1 to 4.0.1 which is available in their respective threads. One thing that was cool was the global search function from donut but that go reverted in 4.0.1. It will probably make an appearance in the 4.x.x experimental series however.....
I should clarify, I did not have 3.6.8.1 long enough to find all the easter eggs either. What settings do you change or things do you use after flashing his rom?

Hey DirectMatrix is this going to be another thread like yesterday.
yeah i'd also like to know.. im also new to the art of the root.. i also have my own questions
i know the myfaves app doesnt work, in fact doesnt even appear lol, but the actual myfaves service still works right?
and do the im apps work? im talking about the native one. it doesnt seem to be working for me =/
also, i want my settings optimized for overall speed.. what do you guys use for this?

You don't want the mygayes app on your phone anyways, its just a hog. It still does work, if you need to set it up just go to your online account and do it.
What native im app are you talking about, its been to long since I had the factory rom installed. But I can vouch for aim and googletalk do work.
If you are on Cyanogens rom everything should be optimized to full speed.
yeah i never used the myfaves thing to begin with, thats why when i heard its gone if you root, i didnt really care lol. plus i was already planning on getting rid of the whole service anyway. but thanks!
im talking about the one that comes with the phone. has aim, msn, and yahoo. i try logging but it just endlessly keeps saying "signing in..". im not sure if i just have to wait, or if its not working.
awesome!

I just want to know what settings you guys change and if there are any things you find particularly cool with his rom.

Point taken...my appologies...Supreme and I like to keep things lighthearted and have some fun. I'm sure I speak for him when I say we both apologize for offending you.
To answer your question....I was pretty much being completely serious about reading the change logs and comparing. That's where I get most of my info but as far as settings go, I second someone else's poste about the badass power widget. I also like the 5 homescreen options, the logcollector app is nice for troubleshooting, the fact that the buld.prop file has been changed slightly means that the new version of "My Account" runs properly without any futzing around, and playing around with the text app is fun because of the mms enhancements courtesy of rgv151.
Many of the other enhancements that make cyan's ROMs awesome are behind the scenes that just make it run faster (kernel tweaks, CPU scaling etc). These have no options available to the user, they just are part of the build that contribute to cyanoganized awesomeness.

Just like Direct said we ain't tryna make fun or nothing. We do help out alot, but after a long boring day of programming at work we got to do something fun to help pass time away. And hey we really didn't even joke around unlike the other thread. Best thing to do is just play around with the phone, try out all the apps, play with the settings, and just explore. Like Direct said alot of things are behind the scenes.

Hi everyone im new here to XDA and just got a quick question
I flashed Cyanogen 4.0.4 rom and everything works amazing!
only odd problem I have is that when I lock screen I see Rogers (operator name)
twice! really odd....
example
ROGERS
ROGERS<-----------this one never changes

Time/Date
some help with this would be greatly appreciated!
guess no ones gives a flying F***.....thanks...
ill try another rom then....
I dont want to sound like a mean idiot but, youre gonna try a new rom just because of that? How often do you study your lockscreen? If your gonna change roms just flash again id say and see what happens

two things:

Wasnt sure as there isn't a q&a for gb, but was directly rom related. I have no problem with mods moving. I actually wish they would help decide this for future posters.

i think its totally funny seeing smartass replies from supposed "senior" members. there no reason for it at all. i'm pretty sure some people just have really, really low self esteem and not many friends. Mommy doesn't count either. if you ever need any advice man just pm me and you won't have to deal with the bs. XDA is all about helping. thats exactly the point of it. good luck.
I appreciate that. I may end up doing that before I finally up on a GB rom.
I'm not upset about ^^. I understand his pov. I just ask he understands mine. It's kind of a grey area until a Q&A sticky is made for GB, or we start having roms appear in dev. However he did answer my question, to which I expressed my thanks, as I do to you.

Hey Everyone. I just wanted to let all of you know that I am very sorry about the screw-up on my part that led to damage of a few users devices. The error was all mine and it is inexcusable. Please know that I take this very seriously, to the point of losing sleep over it. As I have stated many times, I would like to pay for the cost of the bricked users JTAG repairs. Please just PM me.
I also want to apologize for my defensive attitude over the course of the past couple of days. I have never screwed up like this on these forums and I wasn't sure how to handle it.
There is some good news that has come out of this, however. I have been working with Task650 of GT 10.1 fame, an amazing dev and person, I might add, and we have come up with a beta ROM that I am running now that will be safe to flash and better than the original ROM I posted in terms of speed, stability and overall performance. I plan to have a private beta, and will ask for testers in a separate thread after Task650 and I have made sure that everything is OK and it is ultra-safe...
I have been humbled a great deal through this experience, and I believe it will make me a better developer. I have already learned a lot from Task and all of your posts, and I hope that I will be able to earn your trust with smooth, stable and innovative ROMs to come.

In another thread, you said you bricked cooking your own ROM. So which is it? Not trying to be testy, just wondering, so I can figure out what the issue is.
BTW - where are the bricked users from?
OK
So, flashed again, still fine. THe issue must be with the couple/few people's devices that bricked, or the installation process was messed up in some way. BTW, am NOT saying its anyone's fault, just saying that there must be something unique to your tab, or how you installed that caused the problem. So, if anyone has been "bricked", please let me know the following:
1. You did a full wipe, right?
2. You flashed on galaxy tab 7.7 wifi and 3g, not the wifi-only version, correct?
3. Where are you located and what was your build before flashing?
I am not asking these questions to be rude or defensive, I just want to know what's going on. I have had thousands (over 10k) of people download and flash my ROMS (search "Magnolia" in XDA), and have NEVER had anyone brick their device on my ROMs. I am known and respected by most or all U.S. developers for Verizon, so I am not some hack.
Thanks.
Steve
One last question...
Can you power on while holding down the Volume up key simultaneously? I am guessing, no, but thought I'd check. I just dont see how a device can be bricked when there is no firmware/radio, etc. being flashed. Not saying it can't, but it's weird...
EDIT - Try removing the SIM, too.

It might be because they came from another build (not ZSLA2)

Nope. Only two users have had problems with it, that I am aware of. The other 148 seem to have been fine. However, if you are not willing to take a risk, don't flash it. Simple.
Dont get me wrong dude... i already downloaded your ROM, but reading through the thread makes me think twice of flashing... Sorry if my post offended you... ill be traveling this afternoon so i cant risk flashing now because i need my tab... Anyway Thanks for the effort of this ROM...

Definitely not offended, sorry if I came off that way. I just wanted to clear up that it is apparently a VERY small minority (2 users, that I know of, and one other who bricked cooking his own ROM and then came here to state that he was bricked for some reason) that seem to have this issue, and, in fact, samsung tabs seem to have the "wont turn on issue" anyway, so I am not sure if it's the ROM, the devices, or what. I just don't like the dissemination of potentially misleading statements, intentional or otherwise.
Thanks again for your post.
