    Default Should I mod to v4.1.999


    I have CyanogenMod-4.0.4. I am thinking about modding my G1 to the latest version.

    What things should i look out for? I am always cautious. Is there any problems with this ROM?

    I have mine tethered, apps2sd, will flashing from 4.0.4 to v4.1.999 break my apps2SD?

    Will I need to flash my radio first? And to get all the audio back (ringtons, etc.. ) I know i have to just unzip the audio resources. But I heard there was some issues with the ROM due to the legal problems with not being able to include all the files due to the redistribution laws. Is it a PAI?

    expect another 9 soonish, i'd wait for 4.1.9999 if i were you, there are still a few issues and if you're not happy on an experimental rom i'd avoid it untill it's a stable 4.2

    I upgraded last week and the ROM runs fine. Make sure you upgrade your ext2 partition to a ext4 if it already isnt a ext4. Apps2sd still works fine. Use the simplehelp tutorial aryndar posted.

    Go ahead and try it. It is extremely stable and has few to no issues as long as you WIPE before installing. Follow the instructions via Cyanogen and you will be fine. Just be sure to do a nandroid and then a wipe as his instructions tell you.

    yah I traded in the rooted White G1 for the droid and I could not be happier. The continuous 3G on verizon is to my liking but the bill is not....

    Do you have a ext2 partition? That's probably why, you need to upgrde it to ext4 and after that it will be super fast

    how do i do that? you think that could be the main error? cause it's lagging so bad &i'm trying to find threads of people having the same error but i don't seem to find any. I went from JFv1.5ADP to CM 4.0.4 without a wipe cause ppl said it wasn't necessary but i've been getting a lot of force close errors &i think i partitioned my SD card correct.

    i just got a text message &it lagged up my whole home screen, it took like 2 min for it to like sort of return to viewing screen, then i got a handcentsms force close error &then it went black for a while like it looked like the screen was trying to load but was taking forever then all of a sudden it just rebooted.

    Not entirely true. I have ext3 and it's running perfect. The key points are to wipe before you flash. Amon Ras' Recovery is perfect for making the change over. You can use it to partition your SD, then while still in recovery, use it to update to ext3. Simms has a good tut on how to make the conversion along with Cyanogens instructions on XDA.

    Odds are, if your running that laggy, you either didnt wipe before you flashed, or your ext* partition is cluttered. JMO.
    Gave up on updating my sig so I took the easy way out...
