So, I am at JF 1.4.2. What are my options at this time to get the latest and greatest on my G1?
Also, can I partition the card using 'fdisk' and format in Linux and then use the card in my G1? I am getting a class6 16G card, so I want to put apps on there. Is apps2sd already included in some builds?
Please don't say search. I searched and my head almost exploded after looking the ginormantic threads.
If someone has a thread that provides summary or howto update from JF 1.4.2, kindly point me to that.
Really appreciate your help!

SEARCH! No, just kidding. Basically, take your pick of the available roms, make sure you have the correct SPL and newest radio flashed, then wipe and flash your rom of choice. Its that simple. As far as the apps to sd issue, most of the roms have their own thing going with that. My recommendation would be to check out either marcusmaximus' thread on the subject or grab lucidrem's app from the market to help out.
Other than that, good luck, dont brick your phone, and enjoy!
Oh god I wish i had jashu's search pictures. Use cyanogen's ROM. auto apps to sd. Incredibly fast. Stable. Awesome.
Start here. LINK

You can definitely partition the SD card using fdisk and linux--there's a walkthrough here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-502095.html
I recommend using the cyanogen roms because they automatically handle the apps2SD for you and are fast and reliable. There are also several themes available if you are into that.
Thank you so much for your responses! I think the consensus seems to be cyanogen's rom. I think I am heading to cyanogen's ginormic thread and figure things out. Thanks again! I will come back if I need help...

there are thread saying...G1 SCREEN....BOOT SCREEN...but a blue screen after both of those?
Wow I feel as though people who don't want to help themselves shouldn't ask for and/or receive any help from anyone... why should we answer your question when it has been many times over? Please give one reason? You already have the fact that you posted a question in the wrong forum......
Q&A section is where you want to be!! That Help Me !!
is it an entire blue screen or is it the screen that has android with blue scrolling across it.
Did you reflash a rom after reformating your card?
Did you sacrifice kittens before flashing?

First off, this isn't even the right spot. Move to the Q&A section.
Second, use the SEARCH button.
I'm sure this has been answered several times.
wrong section
this question has been answered a million times if you just search
im in a good mood from beer so all i will say is this:
if you are rooted you dont even need to activate with most roms (and you can do it when you have wifi access)
next time, QUESTIONS GO IN THE QnA SECTION....cmon...is it really THAT difficuly?
just noticed from your signature that you are the idiot who asked us to magically improve your signal the other night
STOP POSTING IN THE WRONG BLOODY SECTION
atleast we can read what you are saying this time...

I vote they should, they make some of the best threads... But because they also have the stupidest questions to post a thread you have to answer an Android related question. Something a SEARCH would tell you. You know it reads the subject/post looks it up and tells them to answer their own question
a bit like ubuntu forums and the way they make you answer like "what is one plus four" to get results? but android related...

I think it would work. Like this thread, how to setup with out sim. The question would be
"If you don't have a sim card, how can you setup your phone?"
looks like we have jacked this thread....
more than appropriate for threads that jack sections if you ask me

Well i´ve got a problem.
I´ve got a Magic 32B (i think its better in the G1´s forum) and it freezes randomly, since i´ve rooted it.
I´ve tried several roms, but the problem is still there.
I´ve tried some sd cards, but it still freezes.
I´ve updated the Radio and the spl (Radio : 2_22_19_26I & Death SPL)
well. i dont know what to do now. it freezes, the display´s still on, but its.. frozen. then half a minute later, it reboots. but its not a kernel panic. it reboots completely.
please help
There's only one thing to do in a situation like this.......
.........get a Dream (G1)!
thank you -. - i really dont need answers like this one.
Also, this is in the WRONG section, this isn't DEVELOPMENT its a Q and A so put it in the QandA section
reformat your sd card(fat32) re partition it , the wipe EVERYTHING YOU CAN ON YOUR PHONE, and flash a STABLE ROM. LIKE SUPERD OR CYANOGENS ROM.

I'm not sure where your problems can stem from.
That being said, I try some of the suggestions stated above, ie.,
1. Complete wipe
2. Repartiton SDcard
3. Maybe even invest in a new battery (you never know)
4. Those are the things I would've tried. Those same things can pretty much eliminate most problems.
5. If all else fails.........get a Dream (G1)
Or you could pray to the Cell Phone Gods...........
Seriously, I know I haven't been much help, but the suggestions I put forth is what I'd do.
Don't forget to pray!

Communities police themselves and don't need no STEENKIN' badges to do that. If you don't have an ARM compiler or the Android SDK on your computer you are not a developer and have no business creating new topics in this subforum.

Rooting your phone does not make you a developer. If you don't have an ARM compiler or the Android SDK on your computer you are not a developer and have no business creating new topics in this subforum.

You don't have to be a mod to know who is the intended audience for a forum section. If you expect free technical support the very least you can do is to help out the people doing it by filing your request appropriately and doing your own damn leg work.

Junior member wannabe fail?
Anyway, the main thing is is that if your phone is relying on your SD card like for Apps2SD you could run into some problems with a badly formatted card. Would you be able to post a logcat of one of these crashes? It would help a lot in trying to find and identify the problem and then fix it.

This sounds more likely to be a hardware issue, I've heard of many cases of it on the forums every month or so.
but why should it be a hardware issue? i mean, before i rooted it, it worked perfect. but now..

Yes, some people had the exact same hardware problem as you. You can try to un-root and root again but the problem may still be persist.
okay, thank you. i´ll try it tomorrow, then I tell you if it worked
Hey wazup man well i see what u talking about but i also have a MT3G (32B) and i had no problems with it. Its just depends of the rom you put on it cuz not all roms are stable some are beta or still working on the rom. So what you need do is find roms that are stable. Try find a rom in here go to the search Tap>and put this SuperCSDIX10 im using right now that rom and its FAST so hopwe it helps out
Hi all
I wanna thank This Forum For Helping me to Mange all my Android Phones And Tablet That I'm using..
Recently I Manged to Make my wife to use An android phone ( Samsung ACE s5830i ) as a first step to make here a fan of android Samsung instead of NOKIA
i found a big problem that happened with me before that the internal memory is very small and i couldn't install so much programmes from the store so i used an old trick that i used be4 with my android VPAD 7 which is:
1. make root to the phone ( you will find it in the development section)
2. i used a 4 GB microSD card formatted it to 2 partions primary FAT32 ( the 2nd one is 1024 mb).
3. put it on phone and install the LINK2SD program from the market. when it 1st open it will ask for the second portion type choose FAT32.
4. it will relink many files the belong to the internal memory to the SD card and also you can install the proggrames to the SD card but not all programes the supported ones
this will save alot of space on the internal memory
I hope that Help
