24601 your TS issues are brand new, no one reported that yet, so my guess is either you didn't wipe front to back, or maybe you have HW issues :eek:

@all, I zipped up the new stuff from the update with the 0.5 ROM, will upload shortly (not signed needs CWM). ALSO, I told you people to use MTD, /system was bigger than 170. Yet another confirmation from 24601, @pstevep, you already know how, just fix it lol.

EDIT: here's the updated ROM zip (I have not flashed it yet, and I'm tired, beware lol)

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5669105/gingersense0.5.zip
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pstevep:
Lol @duce.. maybe I will, I like to be close to the edge..here is a link for the update without the format system if anyone wants it..http://db.tt/gbbrZvg

I have to take a break for a little bit get some non phone related stuff done..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TJinWV:
I get a 404. Is this the update with the format removed, or the ROM with the updated stuff in it?

EDIT: Just saw pstevep posted his update with format removed.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
It's the whole ROM with the updates, it booted fine. The 404 is prob dropbox hating me :(

Here it is again

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5669105/gingersense0.5.v2.zip
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TJinWV:
That download worked. But you guys are gonna get me fired.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
So I just tweaked the zip a bit. I put in a really sexy sense bootanim (thanks to cypis) and modified some other stuff in the build prop.

Hey nfinite, you should throw this bootanim in your updates as they come, cuz it looks good :) or you could just use this zip, assuming of course I didn't bork anything lol.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5669105/gingersense0.5.v3.zip
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
It's gotta be hardware as I first had it with aosp 3/26, then CM7, then aosp 4/29, and now here. I'm presently RUU 2.32.651.2, with no root - OMG. Gonna stay here for awhile and see if it rears its ugly head. If so, I'll take it in for service or replacement. Maybe I got some bad crack from your dealer ;)

I'm stoked with what y'all are doing here. Sorry for the off topic detour. I'll be back when I get this resolved.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
lol Duce i just downloaded the one from above. then you post this one downloading now. should i flash this over the other. or do a fresh install.

edit never mind i see now that it downloaded.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pstevep:
Did you have the ts problems on aospCMod with the stock kernel or just with s0be's??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
the changes i make to the build prop are close to yours but i add this to mine not sure if it makes any differences or not.

opengles.version=131072
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
pstevep the 29 kernel wouldn't read my sdcard the 35 kernel dose. not sure what the kernel has to do with the sdcard read for the phone.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Yeah don't do that. It forces vector/3d maps, and we don't have 3d yet. It fails in the quad. If you leave it you'll still be able to use maps, just not nav, if you change it you'll lose both.

Also, this ROM includes s0be .35 ap5, just so you know.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
ok good to no 35 kernel lives in a rom. thanks for heads up 131702.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pstevep:
In this rom?? Ostensibly the 29 kernel shouldn't screw with sdcard mounting, but I suppose because I'm unsure of what the native kernel is for this rom from the original port that if you were going backwards in terms of kernel things may not be so functional.. this rom was probably designed with newer kernels. Just like I think aospCMod runs better with a 35 kernel instead of 29..

But that is just my thoughts no actual fact.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Yes this orig ROM that kyle ported was designed with pershoots .35.11, just like ap4/5. Kyle's original *unreleased* port had our .29, and when he origianlly PMed me about it, I told him that ALL the semi-working low-res old phones (sapphire,hero,etc) needed the .35 to fix stuff for gingersense, so he blended them together and voila, that's what the OP is :) So yeah the .29 will maybe function "smoother", but it will break things in the ROM.

FYI all, the last DB link has some build prop edits that put "my apps" in place of sprint for the market. Also like I said earlier it has sexy bootanim. I was gonna also put in some apps and change the downanim and bootsound, but then I figured people could just do that if they wanted to :P
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
i flashed the 35 kernel after running the 29 kernel and my sdcard was mounted. i didnt think the kernel had any thing to do with sdcard. but it must.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
see my above post. You DO NOT need to flash a kernel, the ROM already has s0be's .35 fork.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pstevep:
Truth
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
i read that duce this was yesterday that i had flashed a 29 kernel then whent to the 35 kernel to see if there was any change.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
ah gotcha, hey did you flash my newest zip? you likey the bootanim?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TJinWV:
Just flashed V2, now there's a V3?! You guys are good.

Anyway, bug report (most are known issues):

Phone FCed on startup (as usual), but acore did not.

Charging LED not working. Actually haven't seen any LEDs working yet. Update: Track ball lit up on incoming call.

Long delay (~5 minutes) in getting connection type selection screen when plugging in USB.

No service displayed instead of nTelos on lock screen and notification pulldown.

Titanium Backup seems to restart after I restore an app. Memory setting closing it?

Ugly small gray Gmail email notification icon (ok, not a bug, but I don't care for it).

Maps shows a "Login failed" message.

GPS icon in notification bar always has slash through it. EDIT: NM, realized this was for GPS-based location, not just GPS turned on.

Some lag in receiving a phone call. I called from my office phone, and I could hear three rings before the Hero recognized a call. It only rang for about 5 seconds, then I was in voice mail.

Good stuff:

Date format. :)

WiFi connects.

My location is back on the homescreen widget. I think this was an nTelos data network issue.

With GPS on, Maps takes me to my location.

Incoming and outgoing calls work.

Voice mail notification works.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pstevep:
I was going to but recovery told me it was bad.. and now I have to charge my phone for a while.. blah
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
yes i did and yes i do i hope it stays in the rom.

im having trouble with titanam it says it dose not have root but i do with adb shell and supper users show root. i tried uninstall and reinstalling
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TJinWV:
My TB is working, but it seems to restart after every application install (ie, it goes back to 'Asking for root rights' screen after finishing an install, and has to reload app data). I think I remember seeing this when I was playing around with some memory manager settings in the past, but I'm not positive.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] UniqueNate:
This is sweet. I still have this phone. I don't use it but I still have it. It's cool to have a phone that will allow me to keep toying with it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jurellz:
Have anyone noticedd the promo on Xda homepage?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
holy crap thanks man
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jurellz:
My pleasure;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pstevep:
BOOM!! front page Kyle.. thats what we're talking about..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Awesome! Hey now you might wanna update your OP :)

Hey all, attached is the logcat of the cdma fail.

EDIT: wow, I think that was about 15 seconds, looks like ti has stuff about the surface flinger error I was talking about. Oh and the LED lights fail. Wow lots of info lol.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
im actually about to do that i had some work i had to get done earlier give me a few

can somebody post me to the most recent files (i asked this because there have been 5 in the past 12 hours)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
This is my zip, it contains both nfinites 0.5 AND the update zip, a sense bootanim that's really sexy that I put in, and build.prop edits that tell the market "myapps" instead of "htc" or "sprint". PLEASE for the love of god don't actually use my dropbox, it will die :) Maybe use mediafire or whatever you like for the OP. Thanks again kyle :)

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5669105/gingersense0.5.v3.zip

EDIT, it's still amend, it's still NOT signed, and the system still is 170+ afaik. I would suggest you "recommend" MTD but maybe say some have flashed without issue and no MTD? Your call bro.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
i will pop it up there and i will throw in the edify script since i just found out the last "official" version of CWM can flash edify also. and yea i will put it up on 4shared i hate hosting it there but 10 gigs for free is right up my alley
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TJinWV:
Just for fun I installed HTCCamera.apk from SenseFroyo v8.5. It just showed a black screen (as expected).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
what happens when you take a picture because i know i saw on a slide port that it was just the preview that didn't work worth a shot
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TJinWV:
I pushed the track ball and tapped the screen. Neither did anything, and I see no new pics in my gallery.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
Ok in a little while I will probably post a completely new build, this will be a complete build of GB with all the functions included and also in odex for less dalvik and ram usage.

HTC hub seems to work

and all HTC Gingerbread functions seems to be working.

This will need to be run with the MTD partions setup as it is quite big current partition for apps set to 225 on mine.

I will keep you informed as I have it running just trouble shooting some issues at this point.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
Thanks for keeping us posted nfinite
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
thanks man i will update the OP with current stuff, and await your thread thank you for taking this over will you still be calling it sensible gingerbread?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ubnub82:
Just installed Duce's update and this is amazing! Definitely my new daily
[Hero CDMA Android Development] laie1472:
BIG THANKS for getting in on this. Looking forward to the update.

#Root/Hack-Mod_Always*
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
updated the OP

when nfinite releases his new version i will change the thread so that everyone knows its depreciated
[Hero CDMA Android Development] laie1472:
BIG THANKS to. Tk for posting this. And to duce aka "the 140 man" lol jk. Im waiting untill ninfinity posts the up date and I'm on it. Was any one able to get data2ext working on this??? Or does anyone have any info as to will it work on sense roms???

#Root/Hack-Mod_Always*
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
way to go on the front page went to look at it and its blank right now. are they waiting for the op to be updated?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
If you click on the article it gives you the full write up
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
ok cool. by the way its been a long time sense i have used mtd partition which version do we use for the hero. 1.5.6?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] unCoRrUpTeD:
I'm going to look at data2ext on sense. I have had it working on some. Which ones have you tried it on?

Also since this system folder is bigger or close to our system partition we might want to look at trying a modified data++
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
laie i have been trying different ones. i think i no what it might be. but its going to take me finding the file in the rom.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
dose sense have an int.d file in it that needs to be changed for data2ext? i had it a while back but i need to find what i did.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] laie1472:
As far as which roms I've tried it on, none. I have a nand of ninfinity's I'm about to restore and try to set it up on that. And I'm game for a modified data2ext for sense. Also doesn't sense play better with ext3 or does it matter???

#Root/Hack-Mod_Always*
[Hero CDMA Android Development] laie1472:
What version did you try???

#Root/Hack-Mod_Always*
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
GF v4 and not V7 yet and both of ucorupted's
[Hero CDMA Android Development] laie1472:
Ok I'm booting up the laptop now gonna restore my nand and try to set it up.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] ehusidic:
Do you mean that the camera will never work or could we intall another type of camera app and have it working?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
Not as easy as just using another camera app. HTC uses proprietary drivers for the camera and that is why its hard to get it working
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
i have had to get busybox from the market to get it to work before.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
Kyle, you need to fix your link on the first page. You have the link pointing to this:

http://www.4shared.com/file/e51j89Fw/Sensible_Gingerbread05v3.html%3Cbr%20/%3E

Because for some reason, there is a < br> in it.

You want the link to point to this:

http://www.4shared.com/file/e51j89Fw/Sensible_Gingerbread05v3.html
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
Is there something that we can strip to drop the MTD requirement, or does that involve manually changing partition size?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
Fixed the link in the OP
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
Well if it is up to me you shoould have two choices Full (requires mtd and ODEXed) and reduced fits factory partions, there is about a 40+ apk difference between the two.

I will continue to work on the FULL as it is having issues due to the extra requirements of the extra apks , causing the phone and mms apks to fc due to this not liking the cdma.

I am guessing this is going to require some smili editing to get things to play nice.

Other then that it boots twice as fast and once running it runs smooth, also have it booting at 691 with ondemand.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bierce22:
has anyone tried aman ra or god speed recovery on this because i know it took forever to copy all the files over on cmr almost to the point were i thought it was frozen i havnt used godspeed inforever and that was the overclocked one right.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] laie1472:
Well I got it to say it's enabled but it say's it's not active???

Any thoughts ???

This is what it say's

sh-3.2# data2ext --enable

data2ext --enable

Data2EXT is already enabled but not active...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
So far the zips haven't been signed, and afaik kyle made the zip in the OP edify, which means no amon. Only cwm 2+ will flash edify.

@laie and oostah, correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't data2ext need to be cwm 3+ due to the ext4 compatibilty?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
try

su

disable --data2ext

reboot

mount | egrep mmcblk0p2

umount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

umount /sd-ext

mke2fs -m0 -b4096 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

data2ext --enable

reboot

see if this works

on sense roms i have had some luck installing busybox from the market. the one in this rom you cant do "busybox df -h" or "df -h"

i am trying some things i may try the one you are i have had the best luck with it. if its GF

data2ext --enable
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
no im using cm 2.5.0.7 and have not had any problems.

thats only if you are running data2ext4.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
I think you can run the cmd "df" without the -h (as root of course), worth a shot? somebody posted that earlier in the thread, I forgot who lol.

EDIT: also, the rom has busybox 1.19.0 andynaline, my TB shows it. I would bet you guys are having probs due to not using firerat, and the /system is crowded. It sounds like you'll HAVE TO go firerat soon enough, thanks to nfinite :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
+1 duce. I did not post it earlier, but I tried it after reading the post and it worked for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fowenati:
gonna keep tabs on this thread until i get home n get to test it out.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
Ext4 needs CWM 3+, Ext2 will work just fine.

I think TheGrammarFreak put up two versions, data2ext2 and data2ext4, apperently 4 is safer but slightly slower, but I live on the edge with 2 :cool:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
also, idk if this matters or not, but the ROM zip actually has a wipe system and data built into the flash (and probably boot) so if the data2ext process takes place before you flash the rom there may be issues there as well, hope you 2 get it figured out. Can you even use firerats AND data2ext? just curious...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
you flash rom then data2ext i found a flash able busybox going to try it i think its in the busybox or a ind.t file or what ever it is i had one for sense that i lost when i wiped my sdcard the other day. loking for a back up or the file agian.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
how much kb/mb does the data2ext and busybox add to /system? I still think it's not simply big enough. For real my first flash was 169.7/170 (prolly forced small system) and after I set mtd 200 100 it was 172 or so, others have reported 174. That's where I'd hang my hat as to your issues.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
edit i could not get data2ext going. will try some more later and see if UC had any luck or not.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pstevep:
you wear a hat??

sorry
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
lol to much i guess i couldn't doing mtd now to play around with till an update comes. didnt nfinitefx say 225 but didnt say what the second number was.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
FWIW it seems like /cache occupies about 10 for now, so for NOW "mtd 185 15" but I think with more apps like nfinite said we're gonna want something like "mts 225 25" which will still free up 50mb to /data.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
ha thats what i set it at so i dont have mess with it later.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] laie1472:
No luck either Not giving up though lol I'm still trying
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Lol, I was on RUU for about 90 minutes and the touchscreen issues persisted. Took to Sprint and he hooked it up to a super ruu IV that cleaned out the arteries. When I came back he says, "did you know your security is off in your bootloader, and I can't fix that." I said, "what? What's that?" He says, "oh, it's nothing, you would have to really try to do something to mess with your phone." (Oh, you mean like cramming 10cc of gingersense in a syringe and hard lining the aorta of my bootloader!) Anyway, my phone's all Donnie Osmond now, so let's f it up. Someone pass me a spoon and a bic, I've got some gingersense crack to cook. Hi, my name is 24601 and I'm a flash whore rom jockey . . . toss me a needle.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pstevep:
there is a sig quote
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dreign:
im really late on this but when i flash this, it says my memory card isnt in. Any suggestions?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
What did you flash besides, the rom?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] unCoRrUpTeD:
Guy's......

Is the .35 kernel compiled in the newest download or is it still.29.

.29 won't recognize it, but .35 will.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
It's been .35 since the beginning :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dreign:
first gotta give huge props to everyone involved in this

and i haven't been able to read the entire thread yet but i only flashed the link on the first page. Did i miss something?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
i have tried the 29 and 35 with both of your data2ext v2.1 would hang on the htc white screen and then i may not have given it enf time.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] unCoRrUpTeD:
Maybe I was getting confused by reading different people flashing 29 and 35.

I just found the issue in my data2ext script. Fixing it now. I'll let you know when it gets uploaded.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
thats great let me please let me know.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Booted nicely. For those wondering, here is df information:

This is stock 05 v3, I had not added any apps to this.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
This might be just me but is anyone else having battery life issues with this Rom at all ? I'm finding my battery running down very fast.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] unCoRrUpTeD:
Here you go..

data2extV2.2

FYI: Some roms have a kernel that does not support ext2. This could be a problem with nfinite stock rom. If I remember it did not have ext support.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
thanks downloading now
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
The signal and wifi ran mine down over night.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Initial results:

> I did a full wipe and install

> MTD 225 15

> After flashing ROM I wiped cache and dalvik BEFORE installing FR Boot zip.

> After installing FR Boot zip and before booting, I typed this using adb:

rm /system/etc/init.d/06BindCache

> The boot animation is the poop

> Upon loading got "Process com.android.phone is not responding" fc / wait; I chose "wait" and it never appeared again.

> White HTC splash screen after going through set up pages; only appeared once.

> I signed in with my google account, and choose NOT to sync my data and apps, and when my home screen loads, it brings up a background I had deleted weeks ago. When I go into settings > personalize > Skin and reselect HTC Sense, it brings back the default background

> Wifi setup quickly

> Restoring apps with TiB is painfully slow

> Significant lag between selecting an app and actual loading, as much as 4-5 seconds on some. Haven't tried rebooting yet.

All in all, looks really nice.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
The app movement is definitely slow. The slow warmup is the .35. I think a new release is coming real soon.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TJinWV:
I don't have any of those pretty charts for proof, but my battery did better last night (lost ~15%) than with other ROMs (~25% typical). I don't have data at the house, so my phone usually just sits on the counter until I leave for work in the morning, unless my wife decides to play Jewels. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
Yeah I notice that my battery drains really fast without really doing anything. Perhaps Rom optimizations are in order ?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
I highly doubt it. It's alpha. I think battery life is immaterial at this point. The phone doesn't know the pri, or the carrier, Bluetooth doesn't work, WiFi is hacked, and you think batt life is worth a post... Maybe hold your battery life posts back until the Rom is a little older than 5 days, or its a "beta". Oh and keep a charger handy. This Rom is pretty fun though, please keep testing, report actual bugs, and maybe we'll get to "stable".
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
Well not to be rude but I thought it was worth a post. No one had talked about it so I wanted to say something about it. I understand this ROM is in alpha right now do there many more pressing matters to focus on. I do plan to keep testing this ROM because I love it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Yeah, not complaining, just reporting. Duce, is there anything inparticular you want tested? You know me, I'll put any pill in my mouth :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pstevep:
Lol.. that's what gets us in trouble chewing on random pills..

On the battery front (sorry duce) I actually thought this had good battery life for an alpha.. it lasts all day for me with lite to moderate use..

Sent from my... wait.. what..
