[tribalartgod]

Wow it has been a while since I have posted in this thread... I have a request, and have looked around, but to no avail... So, without further ado...

What I am wanting, is as follows:
CM-5.0.8 with:
NEW GApps
Apps2 ext3 <<-- Very important
and Finally, if possible... A FULL Gingerbread theme

Can anyone help me with this? I would be forever greatful. :-D

I update the radio and SPL yesterday.

After I update the kernel of my ROM and ... great, is very fast.

What is the apps to sd in this rom? Havent used it in a while. If it is a2sdfat what is the method for ext?

 

[G1sanju]

It's apps2ext and it's automatic, you just need to make sure you have ext partition on your sd card

Please tell me you flashed the Radio first... If you didn't, then I am sorry...You have a brick now. You may want to check into JTAG.

Horrible battery drain! I tried SuperE and it's soooo much faster and better!

Good for you! Well then, now that your life is complete, you should donate your body to NASA; not to medicine or science. That way, when the old redneck space cowboys look for the black hole, they can just look where your so-called brain is and say, "Oh hey! I thinka we found it!"

Camera

hey!

does camera work with 3MP ?

on SuperE and Complete Eclair 2.2.1 camera only work with 2MegaPixels.

(tested on G1 with radio 2.22.27.08 & hboot 1.33.0013d)

I just reverted back to this rom because my phone was to slow on gingerbread.
How do I activate apps2sd again. I see it in the settings but its grayed out.

Good ol' G1

Nope, unfortunately (and Super E is based off of CM5, btw, so no surprise there). But, set it to 2MP and you'll be good to go. At 2MP, it stills takes pretty decent pics with the right settings ("Super Fine", etc.). All in all, though, I mean let's face it; it's 3 year old hardware. And we're not expecting SLR quality shots here

I recently downgraded my wife's G1 to CM5 from CM6 due to performance issues and easier apps2ext (on CM5). Actually, I first went all the way back to CM4 because, let's face it, that sucker is the best performer, hands down. But, even though I love CM4's performance and like CM6's features, I was a little tired of hearing "My phone [insert complaint here]. Can you fix it?" every other day And, as much as I hate to say it, CM4 just won't run a lot of apps anymore

So, CM5 it is for her. Add Faux's 2708+ kernel to that, a 512MB ext3 partition (I found ext4 to actually be slower, at least on the G1), a 96MB swap partition enabled w/ -Steve-O-'s swap script (10 swappiness) and bam, you got a speedy G1 that still runs pretty much everything. She has a slight phone app lag every so often, but I'm working on that (I think I've got a solution - to raise the app's priority - but need the time to test it).

All in all, I'd day this is probably the best daily driver ROM for a G1, IMO. She's only had a few issues and, after some troubleshooting, I've come to believe her SD Card was just fragmented, had a few bad sectors or is just plain starting to crap out. I think apps2ext and swap have taken their toll over the years (remember, the G1 just turned 3 years old this month!). I reformatted it 3x, repartitioned and restored, and it seems to be running better (for now). So, I'll probably grab a new 4GB or 8GB microSD sometime when I'm out and smack it in there. Cheap and easy fix.

It still just makes me smile that the very first Android phone, even at 3 years old, still is one heck of a smartphone. Compare that to a iPhone 1st Gen and...well, heck, you can't even use it anymore! They make a really pretty iPaper-weight, though

I think its awesome that the 32b devices are still supported. I have to ask though, why not pick up a vibrant for $100 on CL?

Heh, because my wife loves her G1 more than me, I think I've tried countless times to convince her into a newer phone, but she just loves that thing. And, hey, if it still runs fine & works for what she needs, I don't have much to argue on. Plus, it let's me upgrade more often

Lol I guess that's true. I'd probably get a mytouch slide 3g and hand it to her to see what happens.

Tried. She hated its particular keyboard, reiterated her love for her G1...and then told me to put the MT3G Slide back. Believe me, it ain't happening unless her G1 goes belly up. And considering I have spare G1 parts from a friend's phone, that will be a looooong time from now

Yep. That G1 keyboard is worth holding onto, but the manufacturers for whatever reason just don't seem to get what having five rows of staggered qwerty keys can do for a phone's popularity with those that -- like myself -- just need to have a keyboard.

I have yet to see a phone personally that has a keyboard that I like as much as my G1's. However, the things I want to do with my phone require that I do upgrade and I am considering -- slightly -- getting a non-keyboard phone. Depends on what's available over the next month and a half.

Been there. The only available (and natural) option was and still is the G2. Far from as good as G1 keyboardwise, but the best hardware kbd option.

 

[AndDiSa]

Same for me, I am still waiting for an alternative, but there isn't anything iteresting here in Germany.
But what's about the Galaxy S Glide? It should be available in America, shouldn't it? The keyboard will not be compareable to the G1's one, but might be a compromize.

 

[cj chitwood]

It's a little older but the Sidekick 4G for T-Mobile has a keyboard I'm eyeballing. Only thing is it's a single-core proc, but it IS a GHz and it does have five rows of QWERTY.

I see a few other phones, but T-Mo's phone shopping site sucks. They can't pick a single set of specs to show for ALL phones, so there are some I'm interested in but don't know how the proc compares, or whether it's got an SD card or not. There's no one table that shows them all with yes-or-no, unless you compare, then you can only compare five at a time.

I'd take the time to google the specs but I'm just not motivated in that direction yet.
