Copying to /system/app using Root Explorer don't work but pushing via ADB and then rebooting works for me. All applications are installed now. The downside is that it goes on to my system memory.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kojitabe:
have been use this rom for one day,and it still stable and fast for me.

GPS a bit harder to lock,but the battery life is awesome.

The main problem for me is i can't install some apps from sdcard.

I wish you will fix this on your next release,cause i don't know how to use adb :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Prof Peach:
Used GPS for 3 hours..... Through forests and all was good. 100% tracked.

GPS seemed to be a bit of a drain on batt compared to other roms.... but it may have been the fact I was in a signal free zone and the handset was working overtime searching for a signal.

I struggled on Cronos Ginger to find a setting where SetCPU underclocking screen off didnt make the music player stutter. This rom however performed flawlessly.

I'm running SetCPU at 652/352 with a screen off profile 352/176, Smartass v2 governor for both.

Same settings as I tried with cronos but this worked perfectly, even with GPS and Endomondo app working. No stalls, lag or slow wake up like Cronos Ginger.

Hope this info helps others realise this is an awesome rom. Give it a try.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] timbohobbs:
Hi, loving the Rom was just wondering if you could include option for 2d gallery in the update? Have tried myself to install from other sources without success. Thanks again :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Prof Peach:
If the 2d gallery is anything like the one offered for Salsa I'd save yourself the bother.

Looks kak and doesnt let you swipe images left or right. Maybe someone will confirm if the one supplied in the Deck OP is the same.

I'd give it a go but im happy to live with a slower 3d gallery as its not used much.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] timbohobbs:
Damn! Didn't see the 2d option in op. Will flash it later and see. Thanks! :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] timbohobbs:
Tried 2d gallery from op and no go. It deleted the 3d gallery but left nothing else behind. Tried twice, once with wipe of dalvik and cache and once without...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Prof Peach:
Really like the sense clock option. It would be ideal if it could open another app or 2 on clicking...... as per sense clock.

Click on weather opening weather screen and click on time opening alarm or world clock.

Is that do-able by anyone here.??
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marleyfan61:
Installed this rom yesterday and must say I am very impressed. So far everything works just fine. Used GPS today for about 40 min while playing music (PowerAMP). No stuttering of music, no signal loss or freezing for GPS. This is the most reliable rom I have used so far (and I've used many). Hopefully a longer test period will not disappoint me. Have I finally found my permanent daily?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Prof Peach:
+1..... Difficult to see where an update will improve my Hero......:confused:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jkballero:
Yep, i can confirm the problem... " this app is not compatible with your device "... :-/
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] aca89:
I'm not sure what version of script you're using, mine is "update9 beta 6.3". There's probably later one but this one works just fine. There are 27 options to choose from in this one.

So after I've started the script this is what I've done:

*be sure that "lock home in memory" is unchecked in settings*

1) You can check status with option 1 I think. Select option 12 in my case which is "OOM grouping fixes + die-hard launcher". Bilion lines come after this and you should read them 'cause they tell you what's what :). Someway along it prints the status of launcher and minfree values.

After this restart the phone, option 26 for me, check this.

2) Start the script once again after you reboot. Check the status which should say that launcher is "die-hard" or whatever you've chosen before.

3) I've selected Super UL option under 256 HP title (#4 for me(6, 8, 28, 30, 35, 50).

4) Check status again. OOM values should match the ones you've selected and launcher should be "die-hard". And you're done :)

Since the settings for minfree go away after reboot, you can make this single script for editing them execute on startup. Every time you flash some option in supercharger it's copy is created in "/sdcard/v6_supercharger/powershift_scripts/". So, you start script manager and browse to this location and select the script you want to access on startup (or often, or whatever...), in this case "256 HP Super..", choose options (root, favourite, startup) and save it. Voila, minfree modified every startup with chosen values.

There's also a "flush engine" option in supercharger which is useful when your phone becomes little slow, something like "kill all" option. So, you do everything like in previous step, go to desktop to add widgets, select "script manager" from list and then flush engine. That's your speed boost widget ;).

Hope I helped. Cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:
You can run supercharger script from console. Don't need any script manager crap. Download script, connect phone to PC, open command console and type:

adb push V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-update8.sh.txt /data/local/tmp/Supercharger.sh
adb shell
adb chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/Supercharger.sh
/data/local/tmp/./Supercharger.sh

follow instruction on screen. Reboot phone when done.

Installed ram manager again and strangely i'm getting phone freezes, everytime it request superuser permissions after boot.. :s Is this meant to happen on the deckedforlife? It happened on the odexed aswell, but I thought it was the roms fault..:s Or would it be cause of setting the JIT compliter to be used on advanced cm7 settings?

You already pointed me to this in your test port thread.

I'm currently trying to port an dream/sapphire rom to hero gsm.

At the moment I get error 6 when flashing rom, must be something with the updater script.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mrsatan:
What's the difference between odex and deodex?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Tenpin:
There is more technical explanation to this, but the easiest way to find out is to use root and root explorer and in your phone's /system/app normally you have the .apk and coresponding .odex to every application inside your phone. Deodexed rom (mostly Custom Rom) don't have .odex files.

Deodexed is like decompiling the application (java..etc.) and recompiling it at the same time so that the apps will work even without the .odex file. Once your rom is deodexed you can modify the look of your phone, like adding custom theme for example. this is AFAIK.

If you have a stock rom (original or update), it's not deodexed, unless it is indicated when you downloaded it.

Source.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bharat_goku:
Hmmm error 6 is mostly missing files in the updaterscript ...if u need help just lemme know ill help u wit the build to the best of my knowledge:)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mrsatan:
Thinking about trying the supercharger script, but it sounds like it might not be worth it. Does it really make that much of an impact?

edit: giving it a try. Does that kernel script do anything?

Hi, im thinking about trying this rom since with ele rom Google maps doesn't seem to work in the last version (6.02 i think)

So has anyone tried the new maps on this rom? Or is there a way to fix maps on ele's rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ChosSimbaOne:
I've just tried 6.0.2 on this ROM. It works fine :-) So go go go and try it :)

Is anyone else experiencing wired issues while calling? I made a call to my voice mail to day, and the screen locked when the phone was at my ear, telling me to double tap to unlock the screen. However the buttons was still active, which caused me to delete two of my voice mails before listening to them, as my double tap hit the delete button :-(

Anyone else with this problem? Can it be fixed?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] teslavio:
Maps 6.0.2 works fine on my Decked odexed.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tom0769:
Yesterday evening I managed to get the updaterscript working so that the rom was flashable. But the rom won't boot (stuck on T-Mobil logo). I also tried to flash fly-kernel afterwards in case I messed up the boot.img but still no luck.

Adb isn't usable at this moment, so I dont' know what's the problem.

I followed the steps in this tutorial, but something I guess is missing:

- Unpacked the rom (FroyoByLaszlo) and extracted boot.img

- Unpacked boot.img and renamed .rc files on ramdisk

- Replaced the zImage with the one from ele's speed machine

- Repacked boot.img

- repaced kernel in /system/lib/modules

- replaced the proprietary files in /system/lib/hw

- replaced the key files in /system/usr

- replaced vold.fstab, /wifi, /ppp in /system/etc

- renamed build.device.prob to build.hero.prob

For rom cooking, un/repack boot.img I usually use dsixda's kitchen.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bharat_goku:
In lib/modules did u symlink the modules?

U will also have to replace a few lib files like libhtcril.so n libril.so these are radio files,in system/bin replace akmd,vold,netd,netcfg,rild and wpa_supplicant files

Compare the build.prop n change device info where needed,replace files in system/use/key layout and keychars,u should be able to get it to boot....

In case it doesn't work try putting lv kernel1.0rc2its easy to install that kernel,extract the boot.img of ur rom,replace the zimage copy the modules,copy the lines in the updater which refer to symlink modules ,convert update script to updater script and convert back to update script check for errors then zip it sign it flash it :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tom0769:
So that's what I was expecting, it's not that easy as described in the tutorial, though i appreciate the work of people caring about others and writing such tutorials.

I will continue tomorrow evening, for now I have to get the software for my refrigerator control running, customer is waiting for it:)

hi!

I just flashed this rom and I still have this weird google maps glitches:

am I the only one with this problem? could it be hardware related, maybe my hero has a defect or something O.o

I really like the speed of this rom, before I had elenilux´s rom and this one feels faster. now even uisng the "new" market kind of works, still a bit slow but usabel..

the only thing is google maps :( any help with that?

edit: btw, did you delete miui music player? i can´t find it, only the regular one O.o
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] schlehdorn:
Same problem here. All signs for the autobahn are white boxes. Realy annoying. But speed of this rom is sooo damn fast. I swear i stick with this till my new smartphone...hmm or maybe i try annother rom... :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
Use an older version of Maps. if you install the latest market on the Hero, well 2.2 and then try to install the latest it says its not compatible and well that is correct. use 5.5.0 or something that one works fine for me..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kirilliz:
ok, that worked :) I installed maps 5.5 again!

for everybody with the same problem, just google "maps 5.5 apk" and download the apk, than install with the filemanager on your phone. in my case, maps couldn´t loginto my google account at first, you have to give permission first which is in the status bar wehn you open maps the first time...

Is there a way to get german language in this rom? I downloaded a loceal app from the market and i let me change the language but only some things are translated now. all the menus and stuff is still english.. in elenilux rom it change the language for all the things. did I use the wrong locale app?

If you are using the latest version of DeckedX then wifi tether is possible. However, you need to flash erasmux's fix for the LV kernel to get it working. Follow this link to find it. You'll want the file for CM7:

By now I've given up trying to port my favourite dream/sapphire rom.

I could not get it to boot and I found no way to debug booting process.

Meanwhile I synced repo of cyanogenmod to start compiling myself.

I was "shocked" that it downloaded ~9GB. I recognized it to be finished after ~28hours just this morning before leaving for work.

I synced repo of an aosp project for dream/sapphire before, which downloaded only ~4..5 GB.

For what I've seen I should now be able to build for several devices including my hero and my magic.

Will try this when XMas holidays start.

BTW, all the best for your exams!

Thank you, Sir Goku

Goku. I swear to God, this is the best rom I've tried on my Hero, since first flashing days when my daily use rom was VR12 (such an excellent ROM on those days). It's incredible fast using LauncherPro+, enabled JIT and Surface Dithering (the last option - because I don't like how it looks like with it disabled - it looks like crap), Compcache disabled, running at 356 -691 smartass V2 without screen off profile!

God give you power, will and health to raise more ROMS for us! My Hero has just revived from mud like gold from rocks.

Calling all the Heroes running Odexed Deck, did you installed SuperCharger script? I've patiently read the whole thread and i saw only a few of you trying that, some of you with some nasty FC's and hangs. How does it feel with that script enabled? What are your settings? I'm thinking of trying it myself but my phone feels so damn good and I don't think that it needs those scripts. Someone on this thread said that the phone feels even more faster with that script enabled, is that so?

Thanks, and cheers Goku for this incredible ROM!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hello247:
im using v8 supercharger script. i do see a slight increase in performance, but i do get the odd forces closes.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] 1ceb0x:
So its a trade off. Increasing performance but force closes/reboots/hangs randomly. Seems like a no working phone for daily use. Anyone else?

Cheers hello247 for the quick reply!
