For you i just advise you to try it on another comp. If you were able to get it recogized but stopped during the system push then might be the comp. Use a friend laptop or comp. See if it works.

I think from lushmoney post #702. He said he unable to install Apps from market as it was giving him error. Havnt got any1 else to confirm it yet. I dont want to use R5 since Im content with R4. Might switch to App2SD later.

As far as stock sms, reason why it was removed it because it was not working properly. People like myself were unable to send out picture mms. Thats y stock player was put back in as the backbone of the sms/mms. But you can disable notification in stock then use
handcent for our main messaging app.

Oh,dint know bout mms issue,I don't know why BH Man gets error from market apps,I always asumed that he puts them in /system/app folder and does system dump after,I never had any issues.So its just market apps?As metter of fact I had issues installing app backups from galaxy 1.6 also,I don't think they back up correctly,because apps that I backed up on other rom(1.5) backed up correctly and installed without error.But apps backed up on 1.6 would give me error also when trying to install them,I used AppControl.

I guess I could do all that myself,maybe we askin BH MAN for too much,lol,when he surpased my expectations with 1.6.
 
I confirm this is happening as well. It does take awhile, but it seems to power off the Wi-Fi or something. Wireless shows as on in setup, but it doesnt reconnect to known AP's. Cycling the wireless does reconnect. Can another user confirm this, and BH_MAN make a note of it? I'll try to get an exact time it takes to jump off wireless. I am on R4.

BH_Man I think I found a bug with R4. After the phone sits around for a while connected on Wifi, I unlock it and its back on Edge... Normally it would take a few seconds and connect to the Wifi. However, it does not. You have to manually tell it to connect to the AP or Turn off/On the wifi to connect.

Though I can probably just tell Wifi to never turn off and that would probably fix the issue, I know with the previous versions it would just connect.

I had this same problem on stock 1.5. When the phone screen goes off and locks, it would randomly decide to connect back to the wi-fi when I unlocked it. Sometimes I would have to turn it off and back on to get the wi-fi working.

Edit: Also, R4 is awesome. I don't mind Vibrate not working and the gallery closing. I just use Astro to find and view pics. Other than that, this is a great rom. I really pleased with it. You've done an awesome job BH_Man. I think I'm gonna stay with R4 until a new version comes out with everything working like vibrate, voice search, gallery, etc.

Gotta use the back arrow button next to the cube button to go back to the home screen. The end button only works for pulling up the silent/airplane mode/power off menu.
 
Just got home... only to find out there is yet another revision.

Is there any reason to go from R4 to R5? Mine is working just fine, but I didn't know if there was something crucial included in R5. After reading the change logs, I couldn't figure out why R5 was created. Anyone?

Edited for typos. ;)

Auto Apps2SD. Thats it. Still need to format your SD card though.

Side note: Check ur google maps for me. Mine isnt working. Said No route available.

Yeah it's working for me. Is yours having a hard time finding GPS satellites? Mine took a while to actually locate my position. I turned off WiFi to force the GPS to do the work.

Try reinstalling?

Also, what's the benefit to partitioning my SD card? Sort of like partitioning a computer? Able to save your data if you decide to format the partition with the OS installed?

Nope its more like found my location perfectly to the yard. But I enter in address from my house and it said No route found. But if i select to walking, it then will give me direction. Well Apps2SD is just way of freeing up ur RAM for more stuff. All the apps you install will now go directly into the SD card instead of internal memory.

I've never had this problem before and was on R2/R3 for a bit and didn't notice it there. I'm currently running on R4. Going to pop my BH2 onto DDMS in Eclipse and see if I can't find a log message on the Wifi shutting down.

If anyone else has the development system setup to check into that and not on R4 or another release where they're having this issue, it would help to see what's reconnecting the Wifi connection after waking up. If not, I'll probably just reflash back down and check it out.

It really just feels like it's a configuration issue. If it's an actual error, the DDMS logs should throw something when the phone wakes up. I'll post back with any results.

EDIT:
WOW! Immediately upon opening up the DDMS log I'm seeing TONS of errors on wpa_supplicant. The WifiService process keeps polling the system every 5-10 seconds with a message of "ACTION_BATTERY_CHANGED pluggedType: 2"

When the screen is off, there are no wpa_supplicant errors. When I turn it back on the errors on wpa_supplicant start back up. Here's the series of repeating errors:

03-26 22:26:27.594: DEBUG/WifiService(105): ACTION_BATTERY_CHANGED pluggedType: 2
03-26 22:26:27.724: ERROR/wpa_supplicant(473): wpa_driver_priv_driver_cmd RSSI len = 4096

03-26 22:26:30.754: ERROR/wpa_supplicant(473): wpa_driver_priv_driver_cmd LinkSpeed 48 len = 12, 12

This block is repeating every 5s. While I haven't located the exact reason for the wifi not reconnecting upon wake, I've certainly never seen errors spewing like this on wpa_supplicant.

Just for clarification, this is R4 connected to an 801.11a/b/g network with WEP encryption. Signal Strength is Excellent, Speed is 48 Mbps and the IP address is valid.
 
Now that I'm seeing an error, it seems (according to Google) that it's not limited to BH_MAN's releases. Apparently the issue is especially common on the N1. Still doing some further testing, though after looking at these, it's nothing that I expect we'll find a fix for or anything that's due to BH_MAN's builds.

Ok, quick question, I setup my 2 Gig SD card with the two required partitions: one 1.6 Gig Fat32 and the other 256 Meg ex2. Now installed R5 with a2sd. How do I verify the A2sd is installed and working, I know it's automatic like post 770 reads but I have about 20 apps that I have installed and it shows the space remaining 144meg. Is there a way to check the SD to make sure that my apps are installing on the SD card. Thanks.

I would add, how can we manage and see the space left on the ext2/3/4 on the SD card that has all the apps, without having the app2sd app installed?

EDIT: After looking around in the Better Term, i found that apps now are saved in the /system/sd/app folder. In the /system/sd is where the magic happens (in app's terms lol)
