Yeah, I thought calibration would do the trick but it seems I cud be wrong, still it might be worth a try your end.
Thanks for the tip re settings, I'll try that, and see what effect it has.


Update: with the fairly new battery fully charged after 12 hours its down to 12%, and that's with the changes in settings, so not good!

Don't know if you sorted it out yet, but theres instructions on the link(just spotted it hence a bit of editing) you posted, I find the zipthemer method the easier of the two.


By the way I've just download the rom and its running well. I found the black notification bar a handy add on. Thanks for all your great work ezterry!!

Well just upgraded from Enoms 1.6 to this rom. So far I am impressed. Having my G1 run at 4G speed now is nice. That was a bonus.

Only issue I have is from a boot up, it reboots once, then it seems to stay stable. Not sure what causes that.

Also question, Dev-cache, should I leave that on the phone or is having that run from the sd-ext ok?

Also are you all using compcache if you have the ram hack going? Just trying to make sure I tweak this well enough. I may stick with this rom unless someone says the CM6 final is better?

If you like AOSP roms this is good the only thing I dislike is that this rom is odexed so youn can't themed or is more difficult (but you can easily deodexed) also you can try DREAMteam Froyo and Ryree Froyo both are AOSP based.

If you want to try CM based roms try FroyobyLaszlo or Biffmod both are better than original CM

Yea not sure if I need CM on this. I know the orig CM wasnt optimized for the G1 in mind.

Atm I have apps, data and cache on the sd-ext which seems to be ok with my class 6. Got abit of a slowdown with adding items to homescreen and opening app menu. Not "too" bad.

Only issue I have right now is the LED Notification isnt working. Used to be I could use sms popup to change that led color. (Led works on charging tho) So any clue on that one? (I see others reported lack of custom led too on this rom, any update?)

Basically on my G1, I never did go fancy, which is why I stayed with enoms 1.6 forever. Worked. was snappy and it did the job. I am hoping this one still is the way to do that. I looked at Biffs and was curious. I just dont know which one is better optimized or still having support. Was there anything majorly wrong with this rom (Before I get too attached and setup)

Hrm so I take it nothing more will happen on this rom or the LED issue? I mean with my class 10. This rom isnt that bad tbh. Works smooth and stable which I like. Simple and so. =)

This rom is the last ota push for the magic modified for the dream. Since its not likely the magic will have another update this rom won't either.

As for your "led issue" I know of none with this rom.. so if its not working you need to make sure you have a clean install and no hardware issues.

This is unless you are talking about the rgb led not using all colors.. this is an extension CM added to his roms and not part of the aosp code T-Mobile used for the MT3G rom. You can see if a cm library may help however this should not be a update to this base image.

Well orig I used Enoms 1.6 rom, old old old I know, however I was able to get all the colors in my LED, which SMS Popup used. (Used to have it flash purple on text messages)

Cept that doesnt work on this rom. Dont get me wrong, I love this rom, 4G speeds able, I have the apps, data, cache working off SD easy enough. No slowdowns really either. So thats a perk. So for my daily use, this isnt bad at all. The only issue that I have are the led colors.

The LED does show green when I get a email and so, so I know the hardware works. =)

is there a language pack includes UK English? i've refered to the language-pack post,but couldn't find it.i don't like the US English,for which would separate the telephone number with a "-".eg: 1-380-013-8000, the UK English act in a normal way.

Let's see:

You ought to be able to try the full number with international code,

Or go to market and install morelocal 2

Or see what anyone else from the UK has done over the past 17 months this "test3" rom has existed.

(We can help you use the from or mirror files that have become lost but I have no intent on updating this old rom)

Ok if no updates are happening for this old rom. Is there works planned for a new g1 rom? I mean so far I am happy with this one regardless, but still nice to track what is going on where. =)

Hi guys. I'm late to the party for sure. I broke my old g1 because I needed to use for bluetooth headphones. I also needed it to run froyo. Right off the rip i jump to terrys rom, who else right? Anyways the op says bt works, and it absolutely does. I just seem to be getting very frequent cut out's. They only last for a split second but occur every few seconds. Unless, I'm holding the phone about 2 feet from the headphones, then everything is groovy. Does anybody have any thoughts on this. I've never used bluetooth headphones with the g1 before so it may or may not be rom specfic. Thanks guys!

It could be the headset too thats cutting in and out. I would try it on a diff phone just to test. So far I have no issues with the rom. =) Also see if the BT stays connected fully if you prevent the phone from going to standby/sleep.

    Here is a flash image for the dream of the MT3G ASOP (T-mobile OTA) 2.2 release. Including the most recent security update!!!

    [SIZE=+2]MT3G-test3_S.zip[/SIZE]
    (MD5: efff33db482ea3b6da3b247516be6a7f .. last updated 11/21/2010)

    Please note this includes my 20101106 - 2708 ported kernel, for those requiring other kernels see addons

    Requires:

    * [Size=+2]1.33.0013d or 1.33.0013 SPLs with recommend 2.22.28.25 radio[/size]
    (32b devices only) details on this post..
    If you refuse to upgrade or can't upgrade because you have a 32a (1.2 or classic) device: you will need an alternative kernel as described in step 4.b 4.c or the phone will not boot
    Note: 2.22.27.08 will also work but is not how the ota was shipped

    * Uesrs of other SPLs can either use Danger (dream only), any sapphire SPL on the magic/sapphire/MT3G or alternatively Custom MTD I recommend "87 2" (system/cache) {as of test3 06bindcache will work if you install the parts package, thus if you use CustomMTD parts is mandatory to avoid market issues}

    To install:

    1) Wipe with 'fastboot erase system -w' (A no-wipe upgrade from test-2 will probably work)
    2) flash MT3G-test3_S.zip
    3) You will be prompted if you wish to install AmazonMP3 (answer yes/no)
    4) You will be prompted if you want to set gprsclass set to 12 (you probably wish to answer yes)
    4.b) If you have a 32a or 32a 1.2 magic install the ebi1, ebi0 kernel respectively from here: http://goo.gl/qFJO
    4.c) If you have a 32b dream/sapphire without the new 2708 spl/radio install the ebi0 kernel if your radio starts with 2.22, or the ebi1 radio if it starts with 3.22 here: http://goo.gl/qFJO
    5) Optional flash "DroidX keyboard" add-on
    6) Optional flash "parts" add-on

    Alternatively the rom is now available in RomManager; and will install the rom and correct version of the 20110222 kernel; also will allow you to choose between the components parts, droidX keyboard, and language packs.

    Whats included:

    1) su/superuser from CM6
    2) my cm6 optimized pershoot based kernel described here
    3) wifi working
    4) bluetooth working (fixed inv2)
    5) keyboard working (fixed in v2)
    6) Rom contains English/Spanish only (Other languages available as language pack addons)
    7) No sim card required (fixed with v2 market fix)

    Many additional packages included in the parts addon.

    To see information on the original Test2 release vist This Post

    What not working:

    * CM6 potential USB power issue (its not horrible on 2.6.34.7 but if you notice it reboot, or plug in a wall adapter)
    * Sound Recorder shortcut missing, this looks like a bug in the OTA not the port a workaround

    What to do if it bootloops

    Before posting that the rom will not boot; please verify the following:

    1) Check that if you don't have the newest radio SPLs *OR* don't have a 32B phone; that you install the correct kernel as mentioned in step 4b/4c in the installation instructions
    2) Please use Super Wipe immediately before installing (ie. flash super wipe; restart back to recovery; then install the rom)
    3) If you did not install it; install partsB; this will fix some date related bootloops that happens after flashing some of the radios. (after you can login and set the date correctly feel free to re-install without parts if you really don't want it)
    4) If your phone is still bootlooping; after a clean install make sure you run 'adb logcat > logcat.txt' on your computer just after rebooting into the rom. Then paste the logcat contents into pastebin copying the link to this thread.

    This may sound overkill but its the easiest way to make sure its not your error during install.


    Addons

    A|| Kernels:

    The set of kernels used with this rom can be found: http://goo.gl/qFJO
    > MT3G 1.2 (fender users) please use the EBI0 kernel
    > 32A magic users (and rogers dreams who have not updated to a 2708 radio) please use the EBI1 port
    > Dream/Sapphire users with older EBI0 radios may also use the EBI0 kernel with this rom.

    B|| Parts Add On:

    MT3G-test3-partsB_S.zip
    MD5: 58b80345db33c95a92f9be77ee67cc43 (update 12/01/2010)
    What is it you ask.. It adds support for many things on top of the base rom

    (note if you are upgrading from the original Test3-parts this is a no-wipe update)

    1) Add support for init.d scripts
    2) Add support for 'adb remount'
    3) Add support for live wallpapers (apk kanged from CM nightly 238, and odex by myself)
    4) Add busybox in a squashfs (binaries kanged form CM nightly 238; and repacked since I didn't want all of them) Note test3-partsB restores the toolbox netstat link to correctly display netstat information again.
    5) Add LWP fix (fixes various 3D) via init.rc permissions (based on firerats work) updated in test3-partsB to fix slow performance in many games.
    6) Added fix_permissions script (this one kanged from biffmod 2.1)
    7) Load ipv6 on boot
    8) apn list from CM238 nightly (new for test3)
    9) flash_image from CM238 nightly (new for test3)
    10) date verification; if year is < 2010 set the date to a more recent date (prevents initial boot boot loops for some users) added in test3-partsB
    11) And Last but not least:
    Added "Froyo Parts" apk custom menu interface to (this is my work k, thanks.. but certainty has ideas from pre-eclair apps2sd and firerats scripts):

    internal -> /sd-ext
    a. dex2sd (/data/dalvik-cache)
    b. data2sd (/data/data)
    c. apps2sd (/data/app & /data/app-private)
    d. Keep Home in Ram (thanks to raven_raven's idea) [new test3]
    e. Compcache 18MB (based of CM's script) [new test3]
    f. Restrict /dev/hw3dc most games run better with this disabled; however some work better with it enabled (no reboot required) added in test3-partsB

    Check the one or more to gain additional space; allow the app root permissions and reboot; the files will be moved accordingly.

    All options only apply on next reboot, so if you make a mistake just revert

    E|| Lang Packs:

    Non-supported language starter packs
    see this post (update 12/11/2010)
    These are for test3 only and provide the options to add [fr,pl,de] or [ja,zh] or [it,ru,nb] or [cs,ko,tr] to the existing en,es rom.

    F|| Disable Menu Unlock:

    No this is not a bug fix; the Rom has a feature coded in to allow the menu key to unlock the screen as could be done on the phone before the update.

    However for those that don't like this feature here is a hacked version of the framework to disable the menu unlock, and enable the "H" notification.

    Simply flash the kernel update.zip matching your configuration

    FAQ:

    * Installing Titanium + Root Fails: You require BusyBox for Titanium to work; this can be installed via You can either install the parts package or install via titanium its self
    * I need ipv6 loaded on boot to run goggles or other app: This is included in the parts package; if you wish not to use the parts package see this trick
    * adb remount doesn't work and this rom doesn't have root.. yes 'adb remount' fails because this is a stock rom.. however NO just because that fails doesn't mean there is no root. see this post in short modify /system in recovery its safer than adb remount anyway. Also ADB remount has been added to the parts package
    * I want to revert from the DroidX keyboard to stock: re-flash test-3 followed by parts if you flashed parts. (do not wipe)

    (In short if you are having issues with advanced features try out the parts package ;) )

    Note:

    This is only a quick hack of the official MT3G rom; please don't expect me to make major changes to it (If I'm doing that I'll build from ASOP source)

    (Changes: version 2 fixes bluetooth and the keyboard + audio levels for dream + removes OTA key so it won't ask for any future updates)
    (Changes: Market-fix; applies the updated files from the OTA fix; in addition to allowing you to signon [or skip signon] without a simcard)
    (Changes: Test-3 parts improvements + security update included)

    Here is a language pack to overly roalex's Gingerbread theme http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9686189&postcount=1440

    YOu probably do not need to wipe if you are already running this rom, but it is wise to reflash the rom:

    [size=+2]
    1) Flash MT3G-test3_S.zip
    [size=-1]MD5: efff33db482ea3b6da3b247516be6a7f[/size]
    2) Flash MT3G-test3-partsB_S.zip

    3) Flash OA22OTA-Gingerbread-Theme.zip
    [size=-1]MD5: 93887ac62ce5f87dcd3b1b8906720619[/size]
    4) Flash MT3G-test3-gingerbread-ex1.3_fr_pl_de_S.zip
    [size=-1]MD5: 2fbf18fa25a4a5e7f8e20a146a04c32b[/size]
    [/SIZE]

    If you are not using the 2708+ kernel (or are trying a different kernel) remember to also flash the EB0/EBI1 kernel of your choice before booting.

    Thanks to roalex for making the theme (OA22OTA-Gingerbread-Theme.zip) I just applied my language pack scripts to it.

    Oh.. and note the Gingerbread Keyboard supports all the languages of this port :)

    You can thank Google's asop code for the speed.

    The T-Mobile odexs help keep the data contained (you can do a bit better with a small as possible system and no extra apps using custom mtd, but its not realistic for everyone to set up.)

    Goggle goggles works! You just have to type in this:
    Code: 
    modprobe ipv6
    in terminal and Goggles work like a charm! Maybe ezterry would like to add this little helpful piece of info to OP ;). Credits to NLJ for informing me about this way.

    Ah, there is another one. There is a way to succesfully keep launcher in memory (I don't know how long it works, but I think you have to redo it after launcher is killed). Open terminal and type:
    Code: 
    $ su
# echo ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 >> /data/local.prop
# reboot

    Works great!
