Anyway to extract just the on screen keyboard? So we can have an on screen keyboard till cupcake actually comes out. I think I'm like most people here and my G1 is my main phone and need it fully functional.
Installing Cupcake on your ROOTED G1 (or Dev phone)
- Thread starter Koush
- Start date
i installled this on my dev phone and wanted to go back to way it was before. Im a noob so im a lil confused. i added the modified rc30 but it's asking me for the gmail account and all that. before i didnt have to do that..... how do i get the dev phone back??
Hmm I figured that but thought it was worth a shot. I guess I'll wait a few weeks for cupcake to officially launch.
You need a dev phone image. I think that's been uploaded somewhere on this forum too.
so until then there's nothing i can do.... feel pretty stupid. i had the dev phone and now im stuck with tmobile registration. is there any other way to unlock it?
i think your confused. even with the dev phone build you still have to enter in your gmail info. and btw the dev build is posted somewhere just cant remember but JF's RC30 will be fine too.
when i first received the dev phone i can use it without a sim... now i have to go through the tmobile setup screen
I do not see google liking any kind of ad blocking software. Google exists because of ads, and blocking them is like killing a kitten to them.
Phone Working on Cupcake?
Thanks for all of this work guys. Did anybody get your phone to work while running cupcake? Mine wouldn't connect to a network at all so I uploaded the radio image from JF RC30 v1.2 to the phone. Once I did that phone wouldn't boot. So I just went back to RC 30 1.2. Did anybody have success with phone? NOTE: To go back to RC30 just copy it's update.zip to your sdcard. You'll have to do an "alt-w" before you can do a "alt-s"

Flashed fine, booted fine, but the missing wifi, bluetooth, and GSM functionality forced me to go back to RC30. We need a build that is actually targeted towards the dream and not for the emulator.

That is the dream targeted build. The current source is very broken due to the new features.
WARNING: Update on "Cupcake"
WARNING: It might be a coincidence but when I loaded cupcake it FRIED my SD card. The card acts really strange. I have gone into the card using LDE in linux and tried to wipe the card with ones and zeros, but it is fried. Anybody else have this trouble. Thanks!
FIX FOUND: This is a known G1 issue on multiple firmwares. http://rivviepop.wordpress.com/2008/11/11/fix-your-g1-android-messed-up-sd-card/

One of my 4GB cards was fried when I first got the phone. I had it loaded with about 4GB of music... then I started having issues with the SD card and found it to be some corrupted sectors. I didn't blame it on the G1 but now I have suspicions.
My 8GB card started acting up (not always being recognized/found) around the time I started using Debian. It may not be cupcake, but just the G1 in general...

fluke, if you took the time to read all that koush said, he advised us all that this is very much a development build and that after flashing to his G1 he went back to JF rc30 1.2. you cannot expect a fresh development build to be perfect, HENCE THE NAME DEVELOPMENT BUILD.
