Thanks

Ok I've put this rom on my hero, I am having problems connecting to HTC Hub also I get to the sign in page and get sign in error saying (unable to confirm your account. Please check your email and password.)

Also I have had a few rosie restarts still much less then bonseys port of sfm 0.21

So all in all I am really happy with the port and I am looking forward to even bigger and better things from this rom.

I am not new to rooting but I've never ported a rom or anything but I am interested to help.

Thanks again for the hard work!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ChosSimbaOne:
Has any1 tired it with launcher pro? Does rosie restart alot too?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] wallimo:
I haven't, my only question about that is, Wouldn't I lose the sense launcher if I used launcher pro?

I would be happy to test it out if necessary
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ChosSimbaOne:
i don't know actually. Did they make any changes, e.g. add some features, to the app drawer? I'm running vr13 with launcher pro and the notification bar is the same.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Mimis_69:
will this work for cdma hero?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
No it wont.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
You wont lose sense launcher, It will just go next to it, and you can switch betwien the 2.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] wallimo:
Thanks for the information, I decided to switch roms to tastyginger last night. But when the next version of this is released I'll certainly try it. I cannot stand rosie causing restarts anymore!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] timbohobbs:
Tried this for 24 hrs and really hope the great work continues. I got rid of several things from it and overclocked it a bit and had no rosie restarts at all, think the size of it can be an issue so maybe needs trimming as much as possible. Love the extra features of sense 2.1, think HTC must have taken some ideas from CM !.

Thanks for the work on this, really wish I had the skills to help as gingerbread with 2.1 sense is surely as far as the hero can go. Also noticed the improvement in screen colours, was quite distinct.

Thanks again and also to SFM just hope more devs try this and contribute : )
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ASSK:
I hope that there will be a fix for the leds. When that is working I would flash this. I guess this the last sense update a htc hero will ever see.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] g21544:
Hi the adobe flash plugin doesn't work on this rom with the browser,isnt that included in the sense feature?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thantos2024:
Its not working because although HTC Flashlite plugin is in the rom, its actually missing flashplayer itself,:eek: so I am trying out some files from other sense roms to see if I can get it working, if I can then i will post up files here
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thantos2024:
Oh something that might help with the rosie restarts,

Download Android Terminal Emulator from the market and launch it

Type in su then hit return. (Accept when SU asks if you want to allow root)

Type in echo ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 >> /data/local.prop then hit return.

restart phone.

On a side note, if you have fast boot enabled then you either need to use the restart phone option in the power menu, OR pull the battery when powered off so as to ensure the phone does a full cold boot to get this to work correctly.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arnoslag:
orginal flash is left out in this rom, because flash 10.1 doesn't work on the hero.

i didn't try if maybe a flash lite from htc work with this rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] KylejMcD:
This helped a lot. a lot less rosie restarts.

I just hope the camera gets working soon.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] swatsbiz:
Really?

Flash won't work as it's not designed for the hero hardware, flashlite might work in this rom eventually but I guess it'll be low on the priorities
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] PochiMak:
great job!

can it display chinese?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thantos2024:
Sorry I did mean flashlite, it still needs a version of flashplayer to run, (hence how sense roms were able to run a limited version of flash 10.1)

I am looking at ripping the files from chocolatefroyo, but am suffering from a lack of space in /system atm.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bonesy:
Chinese should be integrated as i think it is in the original port from seb
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
more like sense roms were able to run a limited version of flash 8, give or take, based on compatibility I found in the past. but meh, flash light is way better than flash nothing :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arnoslag:
wil try in a next release to put flash lite in the rom
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
cool. since this has suddenly and unexpectedly become the only "currently being developed" rom for the gsm hero, please don't stop :-D

I mean, there are great older roms, but I just had a huge fail after 3 days of success with ele's cm7 rom, so I'm back to feeyo's cronos eclaire lite (a stripped sense rom running launcherpro) since it's so quick, stable, and smooth compared to most other roms while not having any of the most bulky and annoying sense stuff (such as the launcher, widgets, stocks, weather and so on).

To my surprise my recent fling with 2.1 based sense roms was disappointingly bad - vr13 is missing a lot of stuff which is strange, and rcmix is just too old to be truly useful to my any more since many of my apps don't run well on it any more for some reason.

So your 2.3 sense rom is a shining light in a cloudy universe :-)

cheers

Don
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] yasin12:
i agree. The miui rom was another rom that had potential but now thats stopped aswell this rom is probably the only reason for me to keep checkin back on these forums. oh yeah and erasumax said he might be releasing a rom so thats another thing to look forward to
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HannoSLM:
+1

waiting with anticipation the next update ..... your work is highly appreciated
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bosch23:

Keep up the good work guys, please
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Arnoslag, you are my hero! ... bad pun intended.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] wallimo:
+1

I actually really liked this rom, but for now it is still a little too buggy for me. So I went back to tastyginger.

But I'll wait keenly for a new version!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:
yo arno, if you want help with this rom, pm me ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arnoslag:
the rom from erasumax looking great :p

but it can take some time to release it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
where is it? how do you know? what did you get to see? don't hold out on us LoL :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
I think he meant this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1026699&page=7

I am sorry, but in my eyes, currently taking on this (Sense 2.3.3) Rom is way too much. We can't even get CM7 properly stable on the Hero, so a closed source one.... Practically, I find this ROM to be extremely buggy and very heavy. So at least for now, I do not plan to release any Gingerbread Sense ROM.

Still I am sure SFM will do his best to improve this ROM, and porting his updates from the magic should be quite trivial.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] il Duce:
Hello GSM users :) I am over here from Hero CDMA, we just got an alpha port of SFM sapphire ROM working on the heroC, I am wondering how you got wifi to work? Ours is a bit behind yours but it runs really well. We have the same "not working" as you, only plus wifi and a couple other things. I had been following sebastion's thread and bonesy's, now I will follow this one. Thanks in advance for any ideas, keep up the good work.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] CraigHardy:
Heey, I think it was the 2.6.35 kernel port by riemer what sorted the wifi out, but if it isn't and somebody corrects me that's cool :)

So I have a question for the op, has this rom going out of active development,

I'vebeen checking xda and nothings been said in a week or so.

Love to know some info

thanks

wallimo
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
I believe the activity is on this rom mainly now HeroLatte
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] wallimo:
Hehe thanks, I'm using herolatte now and love it! I have been reconverted back to sense roms.

But it goes without saying I'd love to see continued progresswith this rom!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Imperticus:
Is the camera working?

No, as is always the problem with sense ports.

Looks like SebastianFM got camera to work! :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Its a different camera so I doubt it will help us, but still worth a shot. Will be interested to hear from someone who uses this ROM if in some miraculous way SFM fixes also fixes it on the hero (when he releases it...).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ChosSimbaOne:
Would be pretty awesome :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] SebastianFM:
Cameras in Hero and Magic are different but libs are the same. I used libcamera.so from Feeyo Cronos ROM for HTC Hero and liboemcamera.so from Rogers 2.1 ROM for HTC Magic. I made libcameraservice.so and libcamera_client.so from AOSP source, a bit modified. Also I added YUV format support in Gralloc and Copybit modules. Try to use my libs.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] B1nny:

-nogay-
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
I'm downloading sfm 1.0 now :D

Results in ~15minutes
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tomekk_nt:
Hope the update would be useful for us :)

@krygo: Tell us how is it working (fast/slow) and how stable it is.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
Camera is working!!!! Wooooot

@SebastianFM Kocham Cię !! :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] B1nny:
same here ^^

Don't forget to flash the .35 kernel, without it it hangs here ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sjknight413:
you managed to flash it on a hero?? or have you two got magics too?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
You can flash magic rom with hero kernel.

ATM I can say speed is very nice but windows animations are little laggy.

I can't turn wifi on. Rebooting now to fix that (hope).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sjknight413:
ohhh man, didnt know that! going to download flash and test now. any idea what wont work on the hero due to it being a magic rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
I think all should work. If not it will be easy to fix that.

Ehhh... error when turning wifi on. ;/
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sjknight413:
oh thats annoying. i always thought the wifi drivers and libs were stored in the kernel though?

oh well, maybe someone more knowledgeable could get things working
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
Wifi libs are in /system/lib or /system/lib/hw

I'll try to fix this but I can not promise anything.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sjknight413:
okay cool :)

dont suppose anyone knows what the commitin cm7 was that fixed laggy window animations do they? i remember something along the lines of textview_setlimit but i dont remember, maybe if we used it in this rom it's speed things up?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
Only one line has been added in sources http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,4314

But we don't have any sources for sense based roms.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] B1nny:
cam works!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sjknight413:
oh yeah didnt think of that. can that line of text not just be edited in the surfaceflinger lib then?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
Yes but can you turn wifi on?

I really don't know...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] B1nny:
Nope I can't :/
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
Urgh ;/

Maybe you know how to fix that? :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] B1nny:
I have no idea haha, maybe erasmux knows, and I also think Pulser is looking at it ^^ atleast hope haha
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
I think now we can expect a new rom from Villain Team :>
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sjknight413:
oh man, so surprised at how smooth this is! i can confirm wifi doesnt work here either

and camera works perfectly :) except theres no option for 5 megapixels, can easily live with that though.

this rom is truly a breakthrough for the hero!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pkn3000:
So you can download and then flash a kernel without doing a reboot or do you flash the kernel after it boots up

I am confused
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
Flash rom and kernel without any reboot.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tim149:
Fix the WiFi and im sold :D:D:D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] B1nny:
how much? :P

I guess we have to wait for a dev to quickfix wifi

edit:

<YBinnenweg> oh pulseeer

<YBinnenweg> I bet you can't fix wifi under 30 minutes

profit?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pkn3000:
if you flash sfm 1.0 the build.prop would be all wrong
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] B1nny:
So....?

The rom works great ^^
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mljjlm:
A lot of it is just shown information from the settings..

I think wifi will work if hero-files are added to the ramdisk.. just trying it out :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
I think we can use old release of sfm with working wifi to fix it now. But I don't know which files are responsible for wifi.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sjknight413:
^ oh yeah good call, just use arnoslags version from this thread

lets try and get erasmux/elelinux on the case :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mljjlm:
Yep.. Wifi is working for me now ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
:D So please release your fix :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sjknight413:
how how how?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mljjlm:
easy now :p - I'll post my boot.img in a short while...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
I'm waiting patiently :>
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
My wifi works just fine. Didn't do anything special to get it working.

The only problems I have, is the SD card and a little laggy pop-up windows animations.

The SD card simply refuses to mount.

Now I'll try out other window animations, to check if it fixes the lag. It worked on other ROMs... Will report back.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
Haw you flashed sfm 1.0 from magic forum or this old version?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mljjlm:
If this works, I'm actually proud of myself xD (so will someone please tell me if it works for them or not? ;) )

This should be flashed after you have flashed Riemers Las Venturas 0.4.3 over SebastianFM's 1.00 ROM! Or it possibly will render your phone useless until you have installed another kernel.

It should replace your boot.img.

Hmm.. wait a moment.. it made my wifi go fussy when flashing it.. just a moment!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] B1nny:
waiting too now :D

then I can finally starting to setup this rom

(vodafone ended me this month... :D)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Nevermind the SD card thing. It works now.

I flashed the one from OPs link.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] B1nny:
That is not the new one ;-)

flash this one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1025330

and wait for the wifi fix :P

(it has a working cam ^^)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
God dammit. I flash that one, then. Thanks ^^
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mljjlm:
Trying again... flash this AND THEN FLASH RIEMERS 0.4.3-kernel (might be working with others as well.)

All of the standard disclaimers should be written here..

EDIT..

1. bug for me.. Camera makes my phone reboot with this "fix" - might know why, will try it later when i'm done eating ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] B1nny:
Please try again (don't dare to flash yet :P)

did you only change the wifi libs or also the old camera libs?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
Flashed your zip and... error when turning wifi on. No problem with camera.

Hmmm... Flashed LV kernel -> mljjlm fix -> LV kernel again = working camera + working wifi :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] B1nny:
LV kernel?

edit:

nvm, las venturas
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
LV = Las Venturas = 2.6.35 kernel port for Hero by riemervdzee :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mljjlm:
Las Venturas 0.4.3

Riemers Kernel

Funny that it worked with the camera.. mine just rebooted :p

Think I'll just start over with a clean flash.. something does not work for me now xD
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Confirmed for working! :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
Hmm... Rotation sensor is not working :/
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Am I the only one who lost the root permissions? I've tried to redownload Superuser, but it doesn't help.

Also, rotation sensors doesn't work for me either. Not a big deal for me, though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
Try this: http://www.multiupload.com/B2VSUNOB4U.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Woo! It works! Thanks!

710MHz overclock is fast and stable.

Fruit Ninja performs WAY better than it did in any 2.2 ROM I've tried.

The UI could've been a little faster, though. Especially the pop-up windows.

I think I'm gonna keep this ROM for a while.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] cartman333:
Flashed 1.0 with CWM and the camera works! (expect zooming in/out)

But wifi is not working :S and the windows animations are sluggish, but the rom is quite fast :D

EDIT: i cant get root acces at titanium backup :S

EDIT 2: all aps what need superuser are not work.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Does gps work on SFM 1.0 because the file looks suspicious to me? I assume that the g-sensors also do not work, again need to bring the right files.... BT since its broken also on the SFM original ROM. What is the status of the leds? Any other hardware problems?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
Flash this to fix su: http://www.multiupload.com/B2VSUNOB4U

Not working hardware:

5mpx camera

g-sensor

leds

bt

I will test gps today.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mljjlm:
GPS works for me..

Not sure about the camera, but if the maximum resolution is set to 3.2 megapixel in the build.prop would that affect the camera app?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
I don't know. I'm flashing sfm again so I can try other resolution with changing build.prop in few minutes.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Did you replace the libgps.so or are using the 88,444 bytes one?

Is the auto-brightness working for anyone?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mljjlm:
I've done nothing but replaced the saphhire-file with the hero-file (from SFM 0.30) in the kernel-ramdisk, and flashed LasVenturas 0.4.3

Automatic brightness is rather bright, and I not sure if it is automatically at all, just using almost turned off backlight.

GPS was working out of the box for me (after the mentioned change)

bluetooth doesn't work, but it doesn't either on the magic.

I think that most sensor-stuff doesn't work.

The rom is in english only btw. but dictionaries for HTC_IME is included for quite a lot of languages..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
English only? Nope.

There's polish language =)

btw. how to get working gallery 3d on this rom? This one is not working ;/
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mljjlm:
Oh my bad.. Then the few languages that programs and applications are often translated to :p
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
How did you get camera to work? Its not working here :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
For me it's working everytime.

Have you flashed this version?

Download in this topic is out of date.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mljjlm:
Actually I didn't ;) (though it works now)

If you flash the raw SFM 1.00 for Magic, then flashes Riemers LV 0.4.3, Then flash the zip-file (replacement boot.img) I put up on page 12 (I think), and then flash LV 0.4.3 again, then you'll have both camera and Wifi working..

If you just flash the SFM 1.00 and LV 0.4.3 you should have camera but no Wifi..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Marsou77:
Sorry but you are wrong ! There are many languages available.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mljjlm:
German, English, Spanish, French, Italian and Polish are available on my phone? I don't count that many :p
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
Here goes nothing :p I am so curious how this will run :D

Jheez how fast can it write Quitly brilliant XD
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
I can't promise anything, but I'll try to get a clean port of this out later tonight....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
:D Oh yeah

I can use this rom daily now.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Marsou77:
Sorry :p For me is many because I speak only 2 languages :D

Btw I love the work of our dev'! Thanks again :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mljjlm:
I'm sure you'll do a better job than most of us flashing random stuff from the forums ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
That would be so great :D I really love all the work you and other devs put into it :D Thanks again :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Not sure about that, for now, took me an hour to find out how I broke the camera from loading. Now I got it loading and displaying the picture but I still can't take a shot. You sure that you can take pictures and everything? I was sure this would be a quick detour just adding my usual stuff and moving on to my other projects....

EDIT: ok, got it to take pictures with the original SFM files, now just need to find out what I did to break this one....

EDIT2: The one picture I did take is 5M (4.4M to be exact but its what I have always gotten of the hero). What makes you say you only get 3.2M?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
well after a while the phone goes into a warm reboot and then wifi is not working anylonger. Think the hack is a little to dirty done to work 100%

Ok well my phone does not do a warm reboot on the Wifi but on installing OI File manager, Gonna try another app from the marked to see how it will handle that, if that is still buggin ill try to reflash the busy box and stuff.

Ok it does a warm reboot on all the apk's
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mljjlm:
Didn't check the file actually, it is just what it says in the camera-app ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] SebastianFM:
Camera app can't read sensor type (file /sys/android_camera/sensor doesn't exist) and default set it to 3M. I modify Camera app to set sensor type to 5M. Could you test my modified version.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
Erasmux made a ported version of your rom here.

I think it can already take pictures at 5MP
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] SebastianFM:
I missed it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Habarug:
Sorry, what is the difference between this one and Erasmux'?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
The version on the first post here is a port of the SFM 0.3 version to the hero. Yesterday version 1.0 was released with many improvements, most noticeable is the highly improvement responsiveness and stability as well as a working camera :D. The ROM "I" released, is at least for now, a straight forward port of the 1.0 version. See my main post for the differences from the SFM original version and the current status.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] docertabum:
big THANKS to SebastianFM and Erasmux :) You make Hero-dev a neverending story :)
