The new Firefox is out for Android, and it requires 2.1 to work. I have Froyo, but it seems to crash as soon as I start the app. Anyone else get it to work?
I checked and it requires an ARMv7 compatible CPU, which means it won't work regardless of the version of Android you have. There was something about nightly builds if you want to give that a swing...
(https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android#System_Requirements -- click on the "experimental nightly builds link")
If you do try out the nightly builds, let me know how it goes.
I installed it, and it's starting up. It's been loading for nearly 5 minutes now, and it finally started up. It's really slow, which probably because it's far too early in beta. I wouldn't recommend any G1 user to try this. Waste of time. I couldn't even visit a webpage.
Not to mention that this beta is HUGE. It requires a ton of space on your device. Something like 40mb. I was unsuccessful in getting it to work on my g1.
the alpha worked without problems on my g1. just was a lil bit slow.
If it's anything like the desktop version it's gonna use a metric ****-ton of memory. I tried it and deleted it when it didn't work. I'm also on froyo.

Hi...I've been reading through everything regarding Google vs. Cyanogen dispute. IMHO I feel very sad about it but....what can we do?? I like CM ROMS they are probably the best (I'm not saying JF, HAYKURO, etc, are bad, just that I prefer CM) but since all the C&D issue Gmail, Gtalk, Market, don't work..Well
Well the thing is, I've read some comments that on CM Versions up to 4.0.4 everything still works fine...it just gets messy from 4.1.x and up, is this true??
cause I still have 4.0.4 in my computer and I really want to flash it to this version...so please let me know..
Thanks!
We are all done talking about the C&D. There are plenty of threads about it. Download CyanogenMod Petition off the market to show support.
As for his ROMs 4.04 is stable. Nice ROM with lots of themes for it. 4.1.11.1 was days away from being stable. It is pretty stable. The only problems I have noted is some apps arnt supported with 1.6 firmware base. And sometimes my icons just disapear from my home screen but, after reboot its fine for another 24 hrs.
2 things really
1. you have a valuable pm
2. ummm 4.1.11.1 hasn't given me any problems except once out of a week or so i have been using it, i got the coma issue and had to reboot. also anything you have on your computer is well.... on your computer, is google going to stop every one they see with a g1 and go to settings- about phone and see if there a cyanogen mod version number there.
I think I didn't make my self very clear, when I ask if it is giving any problems I refer to the Market, Gmail, Gtalk still workin with CM version 4.0.4...that is the real question
i use gtalk all the time in 4.1.11.1. the market works just fine for me. gmail registers my emails on my phone faster then it does on my computer. i don't use maps to often (unless i go out of state, i know where i am going), so i haven't had a need to use it in 4.1.11.1, but it still should work.
I literally mean the only i have had with 4.1.11.1 is that one instance of the coma occurring. i have had no problems with anything else that is rom specifically related, the only thing that isn't the roms fault is that some of the apps are not 1.6 compatible, but again, not the fault of the rom.
I Understand
I get what you are saying. Google has no way of detecting that you are using an "unauthorized" ROM. Flash away. Except for the "coma" issue (was wondering what that was called), 4.1.11.1 is pretty nice. I prefer 4.0.2 over 4.0.4 for the stable but that's just me. Anyway, why not wait. Cyan has a surprise for everyone this weekend.
Hi all
So I upgraded my friend’s G1 to the Cyanogen Froyo that came out in July, but ever since, she’s experienced deleted texts and sometimes hourly reboots.
I’d like to find a more stable version. Sadly the way these forums are laid out means it’s always very hard to find such info unless you’re already ‘in the know’. So… can someone in that know please tell me what the latest, most reliable version is, if not the one I already installed?
Or at least a way to make it stop crashing…

cm nightly
Thanks. Where would I download it and are there N00B instructions to install it over Cyanogen Mod 6.0 RC2 (July)?

The "most" stable in my opinion is: SuperflyTCBY1.1DSF 2.2 Froyo. Starts with a bit over 80MB internal memory.
Been using approx 2 months with very little problem.
NOTE: Any apps you plan on running on homescreen, leave in internal memory. Runs better, loading widgets, etc.
Would anyone be kind enough talking me through how to install it over Cyanogen?
Also how to install an update of Cyanogen over itself?
I wasn't able to find a solution in the Honeycomb Dev thread but I found several people with the same issue but so far nobody has found a solution from what I can tell.
I have the market installed and it seems to come up after a while however I can't reliably download anything. Angry Birds for example takes a full day to download. I also get a lot of Gtalk authentication errors even though it seems to log in fine once I go into it. I've also tried creating a new Gmail account to see if there was an issue with mine but so far nothing is working. I haven't tested regular web browsing speeds fully however it seems to be slow as well.
Has anybody experienced this or know of the solution?
Just wanted to confirm your issues. I too have issues with the wi-fi lag. When I run stock rooted and Nookie Froyo I have no issues. I guess it's still in it's early stages and bugs are to be found. Hopefully a fix will be along soon. But so far I haven't found anyone with a solution yet.
Yep, that's the issue.
..In picking out which is the best droid setup for me.
I was here months back when I setup droid on my Vogue(US Cellular) and over the course of a couple days of trying out different builds and testing, I found that Warm Doughnut was the best working one for me at the time. Unlike the Froyo build on here that I tried, doughnut's data connection worked fine (and right away) without any setup at all whereas I couldn't get it running for the life of me on Froyo.
However, I'm wanting to swap out past doughnut now to a more updated version of Android. Which would you all recommend? I've been reading some good reviews on the Gingerbread build... However, I'm worried about calls/sms/data and all of the other features... Which are working which aren't?
I'd have to have them all working (like current setup on doughnut) to make the switch, else it'll just be pointless for me.
Now I ask the same of the FroYo build on here. Before it worked fine for me, except the data functions... I couldn't get it to connect at all for the life of me.
So, I ask of you all with more experience with this phone than me. What would you suggest? What works for you? Doughnut, Froyo, or Gingerbread?
I want to get Froyo running if I can (about to put it back on and give it a go) but not having a data connection will kill the idea for me. And even better would be if I can get Gingerbread running, but only if I can get in/outgoing calls, sms, data, (gps hopefully) and bluetooth.
Thanks in advance for any/all support you guys can give me!
Superfroyo seems very stable and functional to me. I'm on Sprint. Even MMS works though you have to fiddle with it. Gingerbread's not all there yet stabilitywise.

Thanks for the reply! I felt the same when I tried it out months ago, my only issue is getting the data running... Did you have to fiddle with yours a lot to get it working? I know you're on Sprint and I'm on US Cellular, but from what I can tell the two shouldn't be that different to setup. Maybe I didn't give it enough time/work before to get data running (or maybe I was doing it wrong).
Also, I'm going to be using it from my SD card (like I have previously) for a while and make sure its solid before I think about wiping my WM6.1 off and replacing it altogether. Doughnut worked fine off of the SD card, I'm assuming Froyo will as well? Didn't give it too much time before, but when I did have it going on the SD card before I didn't notice it chugging along at all.
Another thing, do I have to use WM6.5 to get this going, or is it ok using WM6.1 like I am? Would prefer not to have to redo (and backup all that nonsense) for my 6.1 if I don't have to.
I totally wiped windows mobile and run off nand. It's snappy enough and data worked straight off. No fiddling.

Well, got Froyo running... But no data running yet... Enabled Data, enabled data while roaming (roaming majority of the time anyways) and nothing yet...
Ideas anyone?

The typical question is: does it work in winmo?
I haven't updated my SCH-I800 in a while and I notice that there is now a stable "cm-9.1.0-p1c.zip" on the cyanogenmod site but also CM10 builds (cm-10-20130714-NIGHTLY-p1c.zip) as recently as last week. The forums for the I800 aren't up right now so I thought I'd ask here if these CM10s are actually functioning well or if they have lots of missing features. And as much as I dig, I seem to only find half working ROMs or extremely experimental ones that have basic things like WiFi missing. Is there a solid stock Samsung ROM and a solid AOSP ROM that everyone uses at this mater point in this tablet's lifespan?
And is there a new method for flashing at all? Or is ODIN still the way?
Thanks!!!

I have spent the last week or so trying to get an SCH-i800 to run something OTHER than the stock gingerbread well and just haven't found it yet. The closest I got was a build of CM9 but still have sporadic reboots.
It's frustrating since the only thing I want this to do is run some OBD apps for my car. The problem is that apps detect Gingerbread and run in phone mode vs. tablet mode, wasting a bunch of screen space.
Cubed has been pretty much the only non-stock rom that didn't have FC's and random reboots. I don't even use the cellular feature of this tablet - I'd be happy just disabling the modem entirely and running on wifi if it meant it being more stable.
I'm considering just getting a Nexus 7, but the problem is that this thing would need to live in my car and I don't feel like doing that with a new tablet which is why I was trying to get the i800 to work
