lol i've been working on porting a gingersense rom from the legend for 3 weeks and yet you already have one in testing for everyone....i'm kind of late on seeing the ginersense port thread by you thoughtlesskyle :rolleyes:

but i guess i can just focus on the froyosense port, my app, and roms i currently have released :D

also another thing is it seems like using 225 25 like nfinitefx45 said actually made it a bit faster for me :confused: maybe its because the system had more rom to breathe, i don't know i'm just throwing some of my findings out there...most of them there have already been post about so i'm not going to repeat what they said i'm sure you're keeping up with your thread kyle :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Wireless Tether works fine. FYI, I used TiB to restore version 2.0.7 instead of using 2.0.2 that is included in the ROM.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pstevep:
Has anyone tried wired tether with this?? I am wondering if it causes reboot like it did for duce on aospCMod with the 35 kernel..

Sent from my... wait.. what..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
@ coolaaron - sorry for jumping down your throat, not enough coffee. I guess the part about reporting batt life isn't what I reacted to, it was the "maybe rom optimizations are in order", sorry for coming off brash.

@ 24601 - I think testing anythng atm won't matter much, nfinite said he was building from scratch and was testing his build yesterday, so my guess is that assuming nothing is super borked in that one, we should see it soon I hope.

@ kifno - ... the 225 25 is unneeded atm, since nfinite hasn't released that build yet. It also would have no bearing on performance. As for froyo sense, we already have one, v8.5, team FU-S already built it long ago ...

@ pstevep - I haven't tried is since v0.0 when I got FCs on both wired and wireless (probably my fault for pushing to /system). I will wait until the next release and see what she brings :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
Also don't forget the build pmgrands has too
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
pointless post .... here's a cool wallpaper I got on zedge ....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pstevep:
Thanks. That Actually goes well with my aosp setup..

Sent from my... wait.. what..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
hmm i'll ask them can i take over it since they hasn't been an update to it in a while :D

if not then that's fine i'll theme away on cyanogenmod 6 lol :D

but thoughtlesskyle i love playing with this rom in my spare time. you have my thanks for solving my boredom problem at 1 am last night :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
Why? Froyo is done only a few select users still use it. Do what you want but please stop littering this thread with your "plans" you have like 5 threads in the development section all of them end up starting some sort of problem or drama, keep it out of my thread please
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bierce22:
@pstevep i havnt tried it on the new update yet but wired tether from google code caused reboots on me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
Just an update

Still fighting major CDMA issues witht he FULL version, havent quite figured out what has caused this butstill hunting it down.

Definitely know that is is either in phone apk or framework.jar so I will eventually find it. I hope.

Once this issue is fixed then I will have a few select tester run it first for any unknown bugs as I cant test everything as i dont have service on my hero.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pstevep:
Awesome man.. take your time we will be here.. we know you have it under control..

Sent from my... wait.. what..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bierce22:
@duce wasnt that one of the cm6 wallpapers.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
No worries. I have patience and I know the ROM will get better. I appreciate everyones involvement.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TJinWV:
I haven't been this excited for a ROM to come out since, well, ever. Giddy as a schoolboy on prom night.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
I only choose froyo because we don't have a completed froyosense rom yet but I guess I'll just give on that.

I wasn't posting on your thread to start problems or drama.....is that how i am percieved in the heroc forums now? the problem starter? :(

wow......i'm sorry i sincerely am. i have been trying to not start any problems or create any drama but yet ever since _____ its just been haunting me down ever since..and i'm trying to make peace surround myself but yet i can't :(..i won't "litter" your thread with any of my post kyle. this will be my last post on this thread

i'm sorry dude

peace

- kifno
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Please stop being childish, this kind of litter is worse than kifno's imo. Can we focus on development and NOT a pissing contest, PLEASE :p
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
I agree im excited for nfinite's release and my hero isn't even active, has there been a sense 2.3.3 phone in the US yet?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
not officially :) but afaik most htc sense OEM phones (evo,shift,desire,hero,heroc,eris?,etc.) have a port or leak of some sort, XDA is freaking amazing, I love this place.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Houndog101:
OMG is right... or WoW... or HFC... Please get blue tooth working (hands free law here in Md.) and this Rom will be complete as far as I'm concerned.. :):):)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fallonjp:
I've been so happy with my phone with aosp's GB rom that I haven't been on here much lately. Awesome to see that a 2.3.3 Sense rom is being worked on. I always had a thing for Sense but haven't been back in about 8 months. My wife will be especially happy as she misses her HTC widgets.

I'm going to flash this later tonight or this weekend and would be glad to do any testing. I'm nowehere close to having the experience or knowledge that many of you have but I'd love to be able to help out if I can.

Thanks for keeping my Heroc relevant!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Fallon, you may want to hold off flashing anything until nfinite completes his changes. Check his last 2-3 posts and you can see he's working hard to come up with a stable ROM. The present link is pretty alpha, although it is fun to run and see the potential.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bierce22:
and when nfinite's on the case expect swift results!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wjason:
Mount as disk drive?

Anyone having any problems with the USB connection? It seems to work fine at first boot but then after a while it won't mount as disk drive. the connection is there because USB debugging works.

Hadn't seen it mentioned so I thought I would throw it out there.

Fantastic job on this. I love it even at the alpha stage:). I consider this "sense training ground" fro my Evo 3D (or whatever else HTC is out there in August when I get my upgrade:D:D:D:D:D)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pstevep:
It connected and held just fine for me.. it would ask about every 5 minutes if I wanted it mounted, charged, or tethered.. but it never lost the mount..

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jurellz:
omg i need to run this asap

ily <3
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
is this a direct port of the wildfire S rom?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Or use adb ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Awesome kyle! I'll try to get on this soon, I'm tied down for a bit...

I am making a nand though, maybe I can flash tomorrow, we shall see.

sent from a series of tubes.

EDIT: have you PMd the dev or looked at the GSM build for hero??? Sometimes that helps with porting stuff :P

EDIT2: anybody on this ROM can you run "df -h" in terminal and put up system/data/cache sizes?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zwizzle:
This would be preeeetty cool. :) Thanks Kyle for getting it started!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] griffincash:
This rom is my new daily. Very smooth for sense especially for GB. Everyone needs to try this. It is very stable in my few hours of usage. Can't comment on battery life yet, but this is more stable than the froyo sense roms from awhile back imho. Great work to everyone involved!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] trip187:
Lmao...just read that thread before I glanced at this one..funny $h!t
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bierce22:
i want to upload screens for yall but sense sensors dont work its kind of hard lol.

so does anyone know were the light sensor is i did get it to take one using that mode but i couldnt do it again lol.

also it apears that screen rotation wont work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Use adb to take the shot ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
go into cmd, your tools directory, and type "ddms" which will bring up another popup menu on your comp, click the device tab, then click screen capture.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lows10:
Loving this Rom great work I love seeing the flip clock again like the Windows HTC sense haha brings back memorys

Does anyone know how we can get more HTC skins? So far no fc's haven't tried downloading a camera app but besides WiFi and else has been reported everything is working great !!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
This Rom runs really well. I'm amazed. Flashed last night. There was a whole bunch of errors in the log while booting. But then the news told me to stop everything. America FTW!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alexthearmo:
Awesome! So what's not working exactly? The first post is not really clear on that. I'm assuming sensors, camera, gps....anything else?

Thanks thoughtless kyle. I haven't been on XDA for a while, and this and the miui rom make me excited. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
Sensors, camera, wifi, bluetooth, less, and probably a few other things
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vayman:
Definitely gonna keep my eye on this. This definitely bodes well for the future of our HeroC! :D Thanks Kyle!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] griffincash:
Screens

Hey I got some shots for everyone. Here ya go
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Sense 2.1 is really nice! There is not animated boot animation, it's more like a boot splash screen lol - I am sure you know that but you may want to put that in the OP so people aren't all weird about it lol (AAhhhh it's stuck on the splash screen - you bricked me :mad:). Also, I found WHERE the anim zip lives, and noted it in a later post in the thread for those who wish to change it :) ... The df -h cannot be found, TE says "-h: no such file or directory" just so people know. Obviously removing firerats is needed to boot this ROM. WHOA HOLY CRAP, I have an app "absolute system root" it shows /system avail 170mb 99% used 968kb free !!! /cache 130mb 7% used 120.7 free. I guess I would highly recommend using firerat set mtdpartmap.txt to something like 200 100. I wonder if I'm missing any pieces of /system ??? I will do that later and report back.

GPS and google maps work (altough it gave me "error-cannot sign in" or something), but the nav app does not work - weird. I think it has something to do with the build prop, but maybe not. I have a heavily edited build.prop that I will apply soon after I nand backup and I will report back, hopefully it fixes some issues. Also related (maybe) - when you go into about phone/software/ it does not read the PRI, which is GPS related. Quad fails on 3d, maybe that's why the nav app fails.... Linpack ran 3.642 MFLOPS with 2.220 precision.

The ap5 that you built in (you should credit s0be in the OP btw ;)), has a couple known issues: it takes a few minutes to "warm up" after each boot, it has very buggy wired tether (reboots for me on aospCMod, haven't tried on this ROM), the governor needs to be ondemand. Also, s0be removed a lot of debug code from ap5, so if you could rebuild the ROM with ap4 it would function nearly the same, only users could pull more useful dev and bug info like logs, dmesg, kmesg, etc.

FWIW users would do well to get "quick boot" from the market so they can boot into bootloader or recovery from the OS. I would also suggest setCPU or similar and set the gov to ondemand (but I think it defaults to that) and set CPU min to 176 or higher, I was having some blips at 19.2. Also the CPU max is 691 by default, so users could scale up to what their phone can handle. I have not had any reboots or freezes with some HEAVY use (I'm trying to crash it :)) so I would say it's "beta" lol - assuming the /system is not currently larger than 170mb.

Also, the zip is amend... grrrrr.... You may want to add that info to the OP as well.

It's nice to have a "unstable/alpha" ROM to mess with, seriously. Thanks for giving us something to play with TK !!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bierce22:
ah 180 characters lol

jk
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
OK so on this /system used %, I restored a nand that I just reported using 99% of 170mb avail in /system, the restore now shows 29.9 free of 200 avail (I set firerat mtdpartmap.txt to "mtd 200 100"). If you do the math that means it's using 170.1. Because of that I now caution ANY user to only flash this if you use FR 200 100, and then report the used sizes - I still think I may be missing some files, but I don't know for sure. Kyle you should add that to the OP.

Oddly, I started to get FCs on phone and mms now at boot (they both still actually work), wtf - could be the kernel?

I pushed maps, youtube, quickboot, xda, facebook.katana, wired tether and wireless tether (neither tested yet) to /system/app from /data/app. All seems fine so far on those after a reboot (no FCs).

I put a few boot anim zips in /system/media/ and it didn't work. I think sense has a different path for bootanim, but I can't remember it. I then put it into /data/local/ and it looks like it went to the anim in the boot process but the anim itself did not show, it was black - maybe it was 3d?

One of the build.prop edits I made was to change ro.opengles.version=65537 to 131072 (which spoofs open GL 2.0), but it made made the maps app fail. My guess is the 3d tilt that 131072 adds to maps is why it failed. It did however show open GL 2.0 in the app "android system info".

I tried to edit the build.prop with some lines taken from aospCMod build.prop with carrier and region info, in the hopes it would show "sprint" instead of "no service" - no luck there, but it didn't bork anything :) Then I added something in there that killed data, oops lol. Went back in and found the offending line, which fixed that :)

This is fun.

EDIT: wired tether and wireless tether only seem to open if they live in /data/app/ - I still have not tested whether they actually work fyi.

EDIT EDIT: neither app works at all.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
I will credit sobe when I get home I was posting it up in a rush last night so I missed it

And I will try it with ap4 when I get a chance sorry I am so limited on my skill set
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
"limited" lol. Sure.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Hey does anybody running this ROM have the ability to "squeeze" the homescreen to get the thumbnail previews? I added some stuff to the build.prop that I think enabled that, and I got all full of myself, and then I realized I had not tried it before making the edits. Please report.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
So nfinite, do you need some testers for this ROM? I would be happy to test.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
cant wait to try this one.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
yes this is a fresh port but working with your original to speed things along, did a compare of the stock rom versus the port you had to speed up the process of lib replacements and such.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Straight from the front page of XDA yesterday about the work on this ROM:

'Nuf said.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jurellz:
you said it all in one post, thats impossible :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pstevep:
This is balls awesome.. thanks Kyle and nfinite..

Sent from my... wait.. what..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
in time I have still got some work to do on this. And Initial testes will be internal till we feel it is worthy.

I will be more behind the scenes as this progresses along your main contacts on this will be

thoughtlesskyle and il Duce as I still have other projects with other phones also. I just wanted to have a crazy ass challenge to drive myself nuts with. LMAO
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
Haha understood. Thanks for taking the time to keep making our phones better.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dreign:
Man i cant wait till an updated ROM is posted. I feel like a kid on Christmas morning haha. Great job everyone who contributed and good luck with further tests.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
Man, even when you move on to a different phone, you still keep the Hero rocking for those of us still finishing up our contracts. Thank you so much :)

Also, I'm not sure it would help, but have you thought about contacting Zenulator? I remember he was the king of GSM ports (granted, I'm not sure if this is a GSM port you're working on or if the Wildfire S is CDMA), but he might have some insight to help you move things along :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
i have been in touch he actually told me to get in contact with nfx
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
it cant find my music what do i need to name my folder so the player can find it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Ditto. Man this thread is flying.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
I wanted to finish the thread before I flashed. This thread IS flying. I will be checking this out later today. You guys have accomplished a lot in a short amount of time.

Can't wait to see what this is like!

Flashing IS a gateway drug!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
It shouldn't need a special name, so long as there isn't a period (.music). You could try unmount remount of your sd. It reads mine ok. I can't remember the TE command right now, but its something like scan_media, like the command triggered by dev tools on cm7.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jschill31:
Hello,

I have my music under "media" and it is picked up just fine. (/sdcard/media/music and /sdcard/media/video) It really should not matter as il Duce said above but I remember reading back on prior Android builds that it was an issue so I have just done this ever since.

Cheers
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
This was on page 5 lmao, the "new" differences are listed below the quote, for 0.5 v3 -

1) same (works at 185 25), but I'd suggest 235 25, just so that when we do get a new build, you're all ready. AFAIK nfx intends to build the mtdpartmap and fr boot INTO the ROM.zip. The ROM.zip will also auto-wipe boot/data/system/dalvik (not cache). That way all people would need to do is wipe, flash FR-rec, wipe, reboot recovery, flash ROM, reboot. CWM will be the accepted recovery.

2) same.

3) same.

4) CHANGE: wifi now WORKS :).

5) same - app opens to a black screen.

6) CHANGE: now says PG06100 (wtf lol) but apps seem to read hero200 :).

7) same.

8) same.

9) same - intermittent reboots.

IMHO :

recommended VM heap = 48m (homescreens are smoother)

recommended CPU gov = ondemand (kernel is ONLY happy with this)

recommended CPU min = 264 (had lag/media stutter >264)

recommended CPU max = 691 (or w/e your phone will clock)

recommended app "quickboot" = allows boot to recovery or bootloader

recommended app "spare parts" = set window and transition anim. to FAST

...there's probably more that I'm forgetting...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Houndog101:

i was having that issue and if you open titanium you will get an error are you running firerat
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Houndog101:
Thanks, No firerat, could'nt get it to work on other roms so I did'nt try it on this one, should I ?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
you might want to try firerat and set it 225 31. to start with. i could get to su with adb shell but not with some apps on the phone. i got firerat setup so everything fits and have no troubles now.

EDIT can you adb shell?????
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Houndog101:
Ok, will do.. Thanks oostah.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
can you adb shell.

look back 4 post and you look at my post

do adb shell

busybox df -h and you can see the room on the rom
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
A couple thoughts (AFTER you do firerat and reflash the ROM) = 1) go into your superuser app and check for an updated binary. 2) go into titanium backup and click "problems" and fix whatever it tells you.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
i did the samething to Duce. but didnt think of it to tell him. thanks man
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Houndog101:
Yes I can adb shell, I will check the titanium backup and update su.. Thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
if you would do

adb shell

busybox df -h

would like to no if you are running out of room
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Houndog101:
titanium backup says " Root access failed" , su is up to date. also titanium backup shows 38.7 mb internal storage free and 1.32 sdcard free. I even tried rerooting and no change..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
i did the same thing to and tried to in stall busybox from market and it would say i needed root. but under the message it it would show that i had root.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Firerat firerat firerat...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Houndog101:
Yes, I going to do that next, I'll get back later, Thanks Duce.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
hay Duce if you think of the command to force music let me no i cant find it search do you think we are going to get some kinda flash to work on this. have been trying flash lite plugin and apk.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
cmd: get the app "rescan media root" from the market and try that. Unless somebody else who is reading this *pstevep* who is on aospCMod and has the dev tools app can run media scanner and enlighten us with the command line :)

flash: It's being toyed with, so maybe? But other stuff needs to be fixed first of course. I wouldn't get your hopes up much, and if you do, it will likely be a couple versions later.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
thanks.

as far as flash i liked it so i could watch live local news if i lose power or am away from tv. this would be great to duel boot with AOSP i did that with v8.5 rom and AOSP2.2 worked great.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
great app

need to cheek out blade buddy from the market it make changing settings easy like vm and mounts you can reboot,reboot to boat loader, reboot recovery, alot of cool things
