Will do. 20 min and then another is added.

Nah I just want it to be fully documented else I will get. Do I need to flash the lightscript before I install the ROM, or after? And when do I need to flash the Kernel????

And this is all mostly cuss I did not manage to get FlyKernel into the rom... Yes I know I faill.

This rom is Odexed. Mostly what that brings for the end user is a faster ROM. In feeling. For me that is 100% true. And I had Jager on the phone a few min ago and he was like.

Jheez deze rom is echt verrotte snel... (easy translation) Jheez this rom is really broken fast. (Dutch, weird language)

So yea the feel of the rom more really. It is the ROM that HTC made without extra's but all the goodies like the tweaks and the new apps.

E: Really I release a ROM and then SuperUser has the idea to update... so yea I will upload it to multi as well again cuss I made a small change in superuser.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
Rom is uploading to Zippythingy
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:
Hey, congrats on your first ROM. If you want help adding a kernel to it then don't hesitate to ask. I've wrote a pretty good guide (if I do say so myself), that covers ROM porting and so on but includes that info.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
Yea sure love to see that guide and make some changes to it again :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] stroobach:
i have status 0 signature failed..

nvm rebooted recovery and its flashing now
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gzdpy:
is this rom include chinese?

and the zippyshare link download so slowly:(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] skyfisker:
Hi girl, thx again for quick mirror, Kimera 1.8 was one of my fav. roms but no longer updating. I‘d like to try ur rom through mirror but failed again, cant open the page...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Nicolasfoto:
Nice ROM.. just realised, no Apps to SD though..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jaychou8899:
It fast and seem stable. I'll use it for tomorrow and share comment.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
that's odd. there's apps2sd in kimera 2.1 which is what she based this upon.

I'm running kimera 2.1 and it has a2sd just fine.

and may I take credit for planting the seed (which led to Lira choosing this as her base rom) that this is a nice fast 2.1 sense rom? :-)

congrats on 3.0.1 Lira!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DjoeN:
This is a nice Sense rom

Speedy and very responsive
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
Well I myself do not use A2SD cuss it slows down my phone like crazy... sooo Well I can not confirm it.

Where you want me to upload it to so you can download it? Cuss then i will do that.

ROM update from me. Well I have been running this just fine. Tomorow I am gonna be with Jager all day. And his house is like techno heaven, and his car :O A Citroen Saxo with the most advanced radio system I know XD so then I can test GPS, BT, and all the other fancy stuffs..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
Gonna trow in my review of this rom. its good. i am not the biggest sense fan but that was mostly cuss of the speed sense has comparing to AOSP. but this...

Well it is still smooth and works fine :D so I am more then happy with it. and i am gonna stick with it for now. I need a rom that does not reboot on GPS usage and this one does not do that for me so, yea i am gonna go with this one for some time from now on.

ehm well i got nothing else really. and no my house is not that advance, i just use remotes to turn the light on and off, and same for the sound systems and some other stuff. and car XD got a sony car thingy and 4 new speakers.

and i uploaded the 3.0.1 one to MU cuss my upload is better then hers.. soo http://www.multiupload.com/9NFLKTDAGO
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] walkinhotdog:
Sweet. Thanks Lirasina and dkelley for reviving kimera. It really is still my favorite rom on the hero (yes i cant live without fully functioning sense). It was always super fast and responsive. Wakes up instantly when a button is pressed (some other roms do that too, but few). I feel that kimera2.1 is still faster/responsiver? than ele 2.1 reloaded, which i am using now but the keyboard lag is really starting to bother me. Will wait a little longer for bug fixes then will flash this sexy rom
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DjoeN:
Yeah,

I'll stick to this sense rom, like said by rdejager, i'm not a sense fan, but this beats everything. I'll stick to it for awhile, GPS works fine, didn't test BT yet, but i'll do as soon as i get in my car :), Biggest issue with the other CM6/CM7 based roms was for me battery life, so far it's still @ 100% (used to be around 85% after a few hours on the CM based roms) If BT works fine, this is gonna be the rom i'll put on this little Hero for a long time :)

Would it be possible to get a "reboot" option in there?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
ATM my knowlege of odexed roms is limited. I had the plan to look at it today same as trying to get the BT drivers from 2.2 in this rom as an option so it may work smoother on some BT devices. like car radio's, (the next and previous buttons on the radio work then) ATM like all sense roms they just don't do what they need to do. Do not know about this one 100% yet. Gonna find out in 10 min..

But since this rom is Odexed I can not just add the reboot menu. I will see if I can backport the one from RCMix and odex that thing XD but yea... we will see :P

But today the weather over here is like :O soo me and jager are going out.. :P

And then I will get to it early as tomorow evening maybe :P all depends on my free time in the next few weeks..

Exams and study :D

BTW from first post :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
No Chinees sorry.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
kimera 2.1, and presumably this rom even more with it's light script, runs launcherpro really really smoothly. using LP means you aren't constrained by sense's lack of scrollable widgets and so on.

Resident memory and responsiveness isn't quite as high as with VE4/VE6.X of course, but GPS is flawless, even waze and google nav both work perfectly in kimera 2.1 and presumably in kimera 3.0.1, so it's about the best rom we can get if you want navigation.

I ran the new cdma port gb cm rom for a couple days to try it out - it's really nice for a gb rom, but navigation restarted the phone, same old problem, and it has a big bug with app installing for some apps/games.

Both ve6 and kimera are more stable for daily use and for navigation. ve6 has very stable google nav but can't currently run waze.

I'm going to download and flash your current kimera 3.0.1 rom now Lira - thanks for the hard work - I think this will be the best choice if a user requires the highest compatibility and stability.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
Well I tried it with my car radio and well I am in love with this rom. This rom and my car radio just works, GPS is awesome to. So yea nothing much needs to be changed in my oppinion :D

I am gonna stick with this for a long time. :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DjoeN:
I'll stick to this rom, cause it's fast and works great!

- Is it possible to get the HTC Sense friends stream widget in it?

- Well seems like al other roms i ever tried, BT doesn't work with my handsfree carkit :/

- An other issue is, the sense twitter widget, can't log in to my twitter account, always says wrong login/password, while i know 100% sure it's correct (can login with the twitter app from the android app)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
- well I guess no :P

- Got no problems here and it works just fine for me and my sony thing :D

- Don't use twitter so I do not know.

For the rest Waze does not work and well I am gonna debug why. I saw on the waze forum that it may be a problem with OPENGL so I will see if I revers the OPENGL if that helps.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
Indeed Friendstream won t be in this rom :( Cuss I am not smart and well I am not - gonna do it, I hate social networking so :P

- Well 2.1 BT is always a little weird but yea this rom somehow it works great so XD

- Same as the first answer :( I do not use it so I can not test it. People please help this poor guy out :(

And the Waze thingy. I found the problem with the help of Jager and well I will make a fix for this rom and for VE6 and then Waze will work on this one. :D and even on the VE6 one :O

Don be amazed :D

Ok that just sounds stupid. Since I got this done and when I made the update packages I will try and see about Froyolicious :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
OpenGL downgrade on the first post to fix Waze and some other apps maybe :D Under the options btw :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arnoslag:
Great rom, very fast !!

The peep that did come with stock rom doesn't work. A couple of months ago htc did bring out a update for Peep.

small update ( 6mb ). But iff you install it you loose your root access !!

maybe someone can help with the Peep update.

maybe it's just putt the new peep in the system folder, i don't know.

i will give it a try tomorrow.

dank je voor fantastische rom !!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DjoeN:
Héhé,

I can live without the friendstream and twitter stuff, was just wondering.

I would be more happy with a working BT connection to my handsfree kit (it does recognize and connect to my BT HP printer)

Like said, it's the best rom i encountered so far for the Hero GSM :)

Thanks for that.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] puppyko:
First, a big welcome to Lira to this otherwise already quiet Hero community :)

And thanks for continueing the work on this ROM :)

I am currently using VR13 and is pleasantly happy with how good it turned out (with RCMix reboot menu and that everything is working so far so good!).

I had a brief try on kimera 3.0 yesterday. I tried copy over a maps.apk (my prefered version) via root explorer to system/apps but had this message "not enough space". This was even after I had flashed the light version script.

Any help or suggestion? btw, the Internal phone storage at setting shown a healthy 70Mb space available.

Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kakabobo:
does this rom support app2sd?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
Hmm weird I didn't use the light script at firs and it worked just fine. You did do a full wipe?

And about a2sd. It shouldwork. lira only added apps and update some stuff. And you yourself need to flash flykernel if you want to.

And since waze works now I am amazed how awesome that navigation is. I was driving an then noticed I gained on someone else who was using it. Then when I got in front of a truck he flaslighted me.... and then a chat. I see you :D. So yea that was awesome. Works way better the maps.

And it did not had a roundabout in it that they just finished. I took it and the app itself came with a message about it. And now on my maps there is one :D

Awesome app. And now I need to look for candy on the map.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Nicolasfoto:
Hahaha! Dont you just love Waze?! We still need lots of users here in South Africa. I'll run the update now to get it working again. Do you guys rename Flykernel and what works for you?

How is the connection with BT and a carkit?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
In my car it just works, Got a sony car stereo with build in Mic and stuff. Prev and next work just fine. No hickups in sounds like I always got on 2.2 and 2.3 So that is good for me. Some others say it doesnt work on theirs so that is a bummer :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Brakelseboer:
Flashed the ROM. With the latest QQLauncher it's a nice and smooth ROM! Gonna test the BT connection with my carkit in about an hour
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jaychou8899:
why don't u guys vote for this thread, it's so cool
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lost101:
This rom is really great. Fastest and most reliable Bluetooth and GPS I have had in years. Bluetooth connection to my earpiece is made really fast. Also GPS locks on very quickly. Running Launcher Pro, the phone is fast and responsive. I love the HTC enhancements, I'd forgotten about them since I haven't used a Sense Rom in a very long time. HTC did some nice work on the BT/GPS here. No reboots so far, and it's going to feel weird if they are gone for good :) Thanks Lira for reviving this rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sphinxy:
Hi, does anyone else have problems trying to sync facebook/facebook contacts?

I just like it because it pulls my contact's DP from FB.

Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hirencj:
Hi Congrats for your great Rom works Charm :) just on first boot that green screen is weird ;)..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] skyfisker:
Hi Lirasina,

Finally I'v downloaded ur rom and tested it in hand for several hours. pretty good rom with nice speed, fast, low battery drain, well done:D:D

Some advice for improvement:p

1.would u please lite the Gappz in the next rom update? just keep them as an option, I think it's fine. these Gappz canbe downloaded through marktes and removing them can save loads of spaces!:)

2.some appz can be removed like youtube, learn more(can be del by Root explorer), can be fetched from markets:)

3.Is there a save way to avoid the green first boot screen?

4.Plz use this upload web host if possible, here:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=730471,

and in here: FlyKernel-13 (#253)

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Brakelseboer:
OMG this Rom is really really really great! Very fast @710MHz and very stable.

My BT carkit works like a charm
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thomaas:
3 gapps force closes during the first setup... umhh... any ideas?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Nicolasfoto:
Yip, nice ROM, I'm still having issues with Waze.. :-( it wont open.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Brakelseboer:
Found an annoying bug; The phone responds to the volume buttons when in standby. Normally you have the press the power button (or other hardware buttons like in other ROM's) but the volume buttons are active too. That means the phone is often active in my pocket.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Nicolasfoto:
As far as I know that is the same with all 2.1 Sense ROMS. I prefer it like that when I'm doing exercises and the phone is in a pouch. That way I can easily adjust the volume up or down.. It has never happened by accident.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Brakelseboer:
I thought the SalsaSense ROM didn't had this bug. For me it's prety annoying. Maybe there will be a fix for it. All the hardware buttons for turning on the phone may be fixed imo
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
Replies in the quote

For me only the Power and the Menu wake up the phone. the volume does , well the volume XD

For me waze opens but then sends my phone into a cold reboot XD soo yea not really working :P will look at it when I get back from my little family vacation..

Little more info would be nice, did you flash the option (lightsript) if yet then 1 GAPPS close should be it XD. thats all I ever got..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Brakelseboer:
For me all the hardware buttons wake up the phone just like the volume buttons. The hardware buttons are not the biggest problem but the volume buttons are annoying and easy to press in your pocket ;-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] walkinhotdog:
Ive used pretty much all the sense 2.1 roms and have never had volume buttons that wake up the phone. So sounds like a bug to me
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bobbylouman:
Love this rom, super fast and has everything someone could ask for.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thomaas:
nope, just flashed the rom + flykernel without lightscript... came from VE6.1 and did full wipe! what else do you need?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tjempeng:
Today I'm trying to install this rom on my Hero but it seems to get stuck after the reboot at the screen with an M on it and a flashing bar beneath it.

How long does it take for it to boot or is something wrong here ?

I've tried flashing it for the third time now, but it still gives me the same.

EDIT: Never mind. Fixed it by repartitioning the SD Card.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
I have been smashing the volume buttons for about 4 min now and still it does not want to wake up on me... :( so I think indeed it looks like a bug you got on your phone :P

What are you missing? I am not missing anything once you done that :P I got the openGLfix for Waze on my phone to and the maps 5.5.0 incase the waze network is not happy in this area... Love to use waze on my bike, then after I ran a while it will say that there is a traffic jam :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] stroobach:
great to see that the hero is still kicking ass :)

im not using my hero that much now since i got a sensatoin

but maybe i will come back (once i got a good rom for the sensation) and try to port some stuff :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Nicolasfoto:
My bad, I completely misunderstood the situation. I thought you meant that the volume buttons dont work while screen is locked.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] slobo2712:
why don't have facebook friend stream widget just twiter?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Habarug:
Because this is Lirasinas Rom...

And she HATES social networking :-D

sent with love from me to you
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
Friendstream is not origionally in the HTC Hero ROM and this rom is made from that rom. RC Mix and VR12 are both with added stuff so those 2 roms have those. Nothing has been removed from this rom. The lightscript does that.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Habarug:
But IF she had liked social networking, she would've added it to the rom ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
yea, I think it's clear that friendstream comes from the htc sense LEGEND, and for some reason wasn't added to other sense versions until later android versions.

but thanks to devs pulling it in from the legend roms in the past, it works perfectly on the hero and roms like rcmix offer more competitive features as a result.

I think I'll try rcmix with fly13 - a combination that might just do everything I need.

edit: one note about peep - I've found sometimes that installing the current market official twitter app can fix the obsolete (broken old) peep twitter login code. I'll try that and see if it helps. otherwise I'll remove peep and twitter and then reinstall twitter which should definitely solve the login problem. the official twitter app normally registers itself with sense accounts anyhow which should allow it to work with friendstream, I woudl think.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] slobo2712:
i installed RC Mix but in friend stream i can't write on wall anyone?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
Please post this in the RCMix topic. This is about Kimera.

And adding friendstream is not just about pushing an APK you need to change some stuff in the rom to get it to work. Making it more slow. So yea. not going to happen in this one.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
Ok well I said in the Froyolicious rom topic I wanted to get that rom to the potentional for fast rom and good usage. but well not getting there. This rom is still on my number one. I am still learning how to change some system stuffs in android. When i get far enough I hope to release 3.1 :D with some speed tweaks and some hardware tweaks. BT mostly. cuss Wifi on sense is already outstanding. Maybe a better browser? from RCMix maybe but since its odexed I can not just smash it in. But I will see what can be done :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] beri84:
usb tethering

Hi Lira,

your ROM seems to be awesome, although I haven't tried. But I would like to ask whether the internet connection sharing via usb tethering is working. Thanks for reply.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Wupper:
A user pm'd me if I could upload the rom to my server, so here it is: click!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
Yes works just fine, :D Better then fine for me actually :D

Wasnt me :O
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
Ok well I am gonna post this once. This rom does not have friendstream. I tried adding it. but you can forget it. It does not work. maybe because it is Odexed. but I think it is mostly cuss off the fact Friendstream is something like Windows media player, you can install a windows without it. but when you want to isntall it you neeed a lot of extra apps then.. to actually run it.

BTW I do not hate social stuff that bad but the fact that people think its a way of communication sickens me, so I do not want it on my phone. If you need me, call me, text me or mail me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
Did you get my tweet?

if ppl want friendstream there are two fairly current roms that have it, tegro 2.6 and aeonflux. maybe one of the vr roms, I don't know (sorry)!

but if you want a nice, solid, fast, up-to-date and fully working rom that is close to but better than stock, use kimera 3.

this is a NICE rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bobbylouman:
I was just wondering, would I need to use DarkTremor's apps2sd or is there another way and I just haven't found it yet?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
I find it weird that a kernel change can break that A2SD XD but yea if it is not working you can use that. I am no A2SD user so I can not test it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bobbylouman:
So it should work if I change the kernel back to default? Phones fast enough at regular speed so I don't really HAVE to overclock.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
Kimera 2.1 has A2SD so I think so.. I think XD
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] TA123:
Thanks a lot Lirasina for a great ROM!

After using for long time froyo and GB based ROMs I have fed up with their sluggishness and was really pleased with Kimera's smoothness and responsiveness.

---------- Post added at 09:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:39 AM ----------

so apps2sd does not work on this ROM with Flykernel 13?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Brakelseboer:
Nope it does not work

---------- Post added at 12:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:06 PM ----------

I have to admit this ROM is extremely fast. Everything works perfect and very fast. Compliments to Lirasina for returning the hapiness of using our (old) Hero!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] TA123:
Is it possible to install something like darktremor's apps2sd script? Although I cannot find it for Hero GSM.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] n00bDroid:
Is it Rooted, so I don't have to perform new root after flash?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
yes. every rom you can download in this gsm hero forum is rooted pretty much.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] n00bDroid:
one issue

Downloaded and flashed. Super fast ROM, looks awesome! But one issue: keep getting FC of com.htc.bgp.

What and why, and how to fix?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
I have ???? above my head, never had that one.. XD so I guess it may be a faulty flash, you can try and do a complete wipe and a redownload and flash. Maybe that will fix it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] n00bDroid:
Really doubt it to be a faulty flash, I did everything, and in order. Used Amon-RA and performed Wipe of data/factory reset, cache, and dalvik-cache. Even wiped battery stats. Partitioned SD card. Had a seemless flash of ROM, then kernel, before rebooting.

Just tried to 'Fix apk UID mismatch' from Amon-RA . Will let you know if it worked.
