I don't post a lot because I am not a developer, although I am studying up and trying to learn.

I see this as a forum for developers. They make great roms, themes, and other things that make my phone better, without asking me for anything in return.

If I was one of the devs, I would really hate having all of us noobies on here, posting things like "give us the rom", then when it's given to us, saying "it's not perfect", or "that dev bricked my phone". Not to mention all of the posts about, "How do I flash the radio?" etc.

Then there are the non-devs who flash these roms and get fighting about who's rom is better.

Maybe if those who aren't devs would just refrain from posting unless they have something constructive to contribute, and if they wouldn't flash everything that is released before it is ready to use every day, things would be better.

IMO on a dev forum, things are released early so devs can test them and work on them to get them ready for us to use. We should just keep our mouths shut, and let them do their work. Reading these threads and watching how they develop is a wonderful way to learn about coding so we can contribute too. This post was not aimed at anyone in particular. I just don't want to see it develop into cat fights caused by those of us who don't have the knowledge to contribute. Would you guys who are like me, and don't have the skills to make roms rather see this turn into a closed forum that you have to have approval to join, so that you wouldn't be able to download, or possibly even to read it?

Please, just let them do their jobs, send them donations when they make something useful for you, contribute when you have something useful to contribute, and stop making things difficult for them.
[G1 General] tsowen:
Allow me to point you guys to Rule #2

2. Be polite and respect your fellow xda-dev user.

There is no need for cursing, flaming, racism or personal attacks. There are a lot of different nationalities on this forum all with different cultures, this means that no matter what you're like, you'll have to adjust to people that are most definitely not like you. It will gain you a lot of respect if you help to keep the peace. It's disrespectful and therefore not permitted to create Alias Member names in an attempt to deceive others.

If I continue to see flamming going on or personal attacks this thread will be closed and infractions handed out.
[G1 General] diaztradeinc:
Well put, I for one am not a dev, but you won't see me complaining about a build or why this or that happened. I like many others who are, am not to lazy to read. The information is out there people, stop wanting everything to be spoon fed to you, you are not babies anymore, read try to do things on your own so you can atleast say wow i did it with little or no help. Isn't that what we are supposed to get out of these forums? Knowledge so we can spread. I have learned alot here and would like to thank all contributors, and i'm not only talking about the dev's, I'm talking about you guys also for the times when i've read and could not find any info you guys were there. Come together guys maybe we can get more done. :D Besides tomorrow is Friday weekends coming go party *itches! lol
[G1 General] haykuro:
I figure i might as well let you guys know about it.

The way this works is by taking the /system/app folder and moving it into /data/app_s (you can see by the size of the ROM [70+ MB] that it wouldn't fit otherwise). A symlink is created in update-script (on flash) to link /data/app_s to /system/app.

Doing this, of course, will limit your space for installing apps. This was done in the pre-alpha because i use apps to sd, and the people working and testing the rom at the time also did, so we figured it would save everyone time to do so.

At the moment, the newest hero rom (rosie ui) is pushing /system/app into your sd card (/system/sd/app_s).

If you would like any other information ON THE LEAKED ROM (i cannot discuss the rosie rom just yet) feel free to ask, and i will be answering questions (in this thread only).

NOTE: Please refrain from going off-topic ("how do i install it!?", "IT'S NOT WORKING!!" "AAJIOSDHASOIDHASUIODHUIO23!!!?" :p)
[G1 General] dpgc213:
ok ive got installed. but when i plug the charger in the led doesnt show that its charging, is that normal? also is there a way to change the lock screen wallpaper? as it force closes when you try change it in the settings

cheers
[G1 General] funbacon:
Waitin' for your release. G3 image was out. Will you release your Hero porting ?
[G1 General] haykuro:
heh, wow. that build must be very old :P

anywho, check out /system/lib/hw

you should have a "lights.trout.so" ;)

along with this, you should see a slew of *.trout.so if you don't get them off another build.

the lock screen wallpaper can't be changed as that part is incomplete in the rom you have ;)
[G1 General] siriuxs:
When you relase a your versione of hero?
[G1 General] haykuro:
The image that is out is mine. :p It's just older.

A newer, better, hero build will be released when i take care of the watermarks problem and the build cannot be tracked back.
[G1 General] diaztradeinc:
Woops, so um is your build faster then the leaked image im using?

ps: any timeframe availiable on rosie? ;)
[G1 General] RueTheDay:
Why does the Hero ROM require a different SPL? My understanding of the bootloader in these phones is that they really don't do much except trap the power on event, perform a POST type check, and allow for the actions in the bootloader menu.
[G1 General] haykuro:
Thank you very much for your compliments, but please stay on topic ;) this thread is for questions regarding the leaked rom ONLY. :o
[G1 General] jroid:
wait, the hero rom has been leaked already for download?? if so, where's the link?
[G1 General] haykuro:
The 1.33.2005 SPL gives you 92160K of /system and /data partition as opposed to the 69120K on the G1. it does so by shrinking the /cache partition as well. (but this is no longer used on a rooted device, as it is only for updates ;))
[G1 General] haykuro:
please refrain from such questions in this thread. you can use the search feature available to you to find the answer to that question. ;P
[G1 General] bolmedias:
I for one think that there's no point asking when Hero's gonna be released. The leaked rom was very buggy, short of unusable, so Hero is in the same boat as Duke Nukem Forever used to be: it will be released when it's ready.
[G1 General] Six6Sicks:
My $0.02 is this.....

I was excited to see the "Hero" rom available at the wee hours of the night last night (bout 3 a.m. for me).

I was hesitant on flashing it, but I did anyways, and, I love it!

Little laggy and missing a few features, but it's ok. I'll deal with it's flaws until the full version comes out.

I'm not going to complain that it isn't 100% perfect, I'll take it as it is.......for now. I couldn't make a rom like Haykuro, Jesus, or Dude......you probably can't either.

Those angered by not getting the full version, relax, do you think you are owed something?

It's hard work to get these things working.

Have no fear, our man Haykuro is working on it. Be patient.
[G1 General] N3xt2N0N3:
Are the watermarks just on the theme? or are they digital? Cause if its on the theme i could easily remove them and make it seem like they were never there.

I am a Graphic Designer.

So let me know haykuro i could probably help you out.
[G1 General] Gimpeh:
They are definitly digital.
[G1 General] bolmedias:
Watermark in this case doesn't mean a literal watermark, i.e. on a theme, it's more like how the ROM is signed, who's listed as the maker, etc.
[G1 General] anddep:
from what percentage u think it is at? just asking, either way i always end up tryin out a new rom.
[G1 General] hondamx525:
Here's a question, are you working on trying to make a finished rom of the version that was leaked, or bypassing it and trying to get a working rosie rom?
[G1 General] twistedumbrella:
Those of you that got Hero... try this out...

Just a little something I extracted from the original image:

http://code.google.com/p/cupcake-frosting/downloads/list

(Camera.apk)
[G1 General] Six6Sicks:
71.8%

wait.....

no, 71.8% it is.
[G1 General] funbacon:
If someone upload real G3 image (from HTC), will you release your build ?
[G1 General] anddep:
LOL nice .8%

another question.. how much space do u have free?

thanks:)
[G1 General] Jrbourque:
if you only have edge around you, you have to change your apn to the tmobile us
[G1 General] funbacon:
Yeah. But the camera button doesn't work.

I see that you have hero system image :)), why don't you share it and haykuro will share his build as he promised.
[G1 General] N3xt2N0N3:
I think were all not sure how the water mark goes. Hopefully later today haykuro could enlighten us with information about it. or how the watermarks work.
[G1 General] Six6Sicks:
Think it was about 23MB. I installed all my standard apps (bout 12) and I'm down to 21MB.
[G1 General] otto888:
I agree. If you do have the system image,please upload so we can have a build that will connect to twitter(at least). :P
[G1 General] anddep:
alright kool, thanks for the response. i am goin to try it as soon as it finish downloading - Whew! 3 min left outta 2 hours on comcast.:mad:
[G1 General] AbsoluteDesignz:
I'mma just wait for Haykuro's full build before I flash the leaked one...
[G1 General] Jrbourque:
Hey fun what has to be done so that haykuro will release his build?
[G1 General] haykuro:
I have to get off the computer now (going to 3rd block) please wait until i'm back to continue posting questions ;)
[G1 General] funbacon:
I remeber that he don't want to put out his build until there are someone post system image of Hero.
[G1 General] dpgc213:
thanks, i cant seem to find that specific file in any of the builds. however there are lights.msm7k.so and lights.glodfish.so in there. i replaced these with the ones from ur latest 6.0 build. The light only shows when the phone is off , wierd huh?
[G1 General] maxisma:
I Love this build. Really. =)
[G1 General] emms007:
message deleted
[G1 General] mr2man07:
Its a tad slow and sluggish here and there, but so far I am loving the new contacts with facebook. Thanks Dan for taking one for the team and releasing it.

All in all I am keeping this version on my phone despite the small issues :D

Edit: Heres a status of all the applications that i typically use, thought I'd share with you guys that were wondering:

-Camera button works perfectly fine for me and is extremely fast and is damn near perfect! Camcorder is also working just fine.

-twitter will not login, it doesn't give an error, just sits at the login screen even after pressing login.

-GPS seems to be working just fine for me.

- Paid downloads do not work for me yet, but regular apps are just fine

- I have not gotten apps2sd yet but i do have 27mb free right now with about 10 apps installed.

- Personalize settings does not work, force closes on any selection.

- Contacts, dialer, footprints, messaging, calendar, browser work great

- Browser tab switching is very smooth and the new loading bar and the full screen browser is a HUGE plus for me :D
[G1 General] mr2man07:
Same here, the new ui upgrades to contacts is great.
[G1 General] DVS_Sokar:
twistedumbrella:

Thanks for the updates.

I might have some more stuff coming my way about Hero. As Soon as I get some details and the needed information I will post on first post.

Stay tuned.

P.S. Since this thread is for the Hero Rom I will post all Current Builds of all Hero Builds I find .. I am not going to limit it to just Haykuro's build. As the community may be able to contribute toward a more complete build by having this out there.
[G1 General] anddep:
so u guys are seein' home screen like the video? or what i am lookin at is the regular framework.. Lifestyle in Personalized forces close.
[G1 General] Six6Sicks:
What a tease!

Anyone else play the tutorial that came with this rom? It shows you what Rosie is gonna look like on the G1. Such a tease!

Tutorials > Home Screen..........

So sexy!
[G1 General] Senorkabob:
Anyone know how to get this running in the emulator?

Lookin good so far.
[G1 General] anddep:
oh ok so u are seeim' what im seein'

the home screen is the same a the other builds.. i love it though
[G1 General] Senorkabob:
Yeah its going to be. It wont change until the "rosie" build comes out.
[G1 General] mr2man07:
Everything but paid apps, twitter, and lifestyle settings are working for me.

I love it so far, its a huge step forward for android, and Rosie will be comparable to us landing on the moon! Ok maybe not that extreme but you get the point
[G1 General] justanothercrowd:
I can't post any links but the build is very nice...a bit slow but Exchange works and everything else besides bluetooth and theme settings are looking good.
[G1 General] twistedumbrella:
Twitter doesn't log in because it is linked to the missing Launcher. Paid apps work fine for me, so I dunno what to say there. Apps2SD works fine, but not the new version 2, just the old so far. Personalize is linked to a missing apk also. As for the lock, that is how it is supposed to function. It will lock on whatever you were on and display that as the background. Once personalize is enabled you have the option to switch this with a stationary picture as your lock.

My system image is the same one posted here, so I dunno what Haykuro is going on about. It's the same one he has...
[G1 General] DVS_Sokar:
Pretty much what I was told were the issues in the release by the developers.
[G1 General] Rayman0625:
So are paid apps either they work, or they don't?
[G1 General] twistedumbrella:
Mine work fine. I think the issue is with some copy protected apps, but even those seem to install fine for me. I don't know.

"Individual results may vary. Consult a physician before mixing medications"
[G1 General] Rayman0625:
Ha nice. I'll have to try the build when I get home..
[G1 General] pinxue:
Why there are so many similar stories?

I have seen enough drama of mouse vs. cat in last year inside iPhone hacking community, iphone-dev team wants to hide some thing, others leak it for all kinds of purpose. Now it is turn of Android community.

PS. According the note at http://www.androidin.net/read.php?tid=4380&page=3#42157 and http://www.androidin.net/read.php?tid=4380&page=4#42286 , I'm wondering if anyone may tell the story behind the scense.
[G1 General] DVS_Sokar:
Theme Settings and Bluetooth are the only items Reported NOT to be working in the Leaked build. Others may have issues with other features. But Needless to say those should be the only 2 issues. From what one of the devs told me.
[G1 General] dbhatesyou:
Just wondering haykuro, you've always mentioned watermarks, what kind of watermarks exactly are you talking about, are they the image type or more datatype. im sure theres a way to remove them... depending if its coded into an apk (id like to doubt this because that would be a lot of apk signing ) or some random file, i know on some phones in their .bin's would hold modifiable data where as if you remove text it craps out but where you want to remove text , adding spaces works. Anyways... to the original question what kind of watermarks are we talking about exactly.
[G1 General] froesei:
I don't think anyone has reported being able to get the twitter settings working either, myself included. Anyone care to correct me on that?
[G1 General] mr2man07:
Awesome man, yet again you come out and give a nice explanation of why it isn't working. This way If anybody else or myself need to explain we can use this information to tell others.
[G1 General] Jrbourque:
no gps either :(
[G1 General] JakeEv:
I actually like this, I haven't had any problems other than the Twitter, but not a big deal cause I have twidroid. I really like the new way of adding contacts, how it asks if you want to open the camera to take a picture of the new person. Pretty sweet. Looking forward to Rosie, big time, but this is really good to hold me over til then!
[G1 General] Jrbourque:
i dont want to seem like im repeating but if you're not reading other threads the gps doesnt work either
[G1 General] Rayman0625:
I'd really much rather get the full build. I can't wait, my birthday is June 15th. Hopefully by then? :)
[G1 General] DVS_Sokar:
This seems to be hit or miss for some people.

Some get it some don't.. Looking into it though.
[G1 General] Jrbourque:
ohhhh please let me know i leave for vacation in a couple of hours lol and that would be pretty handy....could it have to do with what apn you use?
[G1 General] Rayman0625:
In another thread, it was stated that twitter wasn't working due to a missing launcher.apk. Pretty sure it was said by Twistedumbrella.
[G1 General] DVS_Sokar:
In California I use epc.tmobile.com for my apn and I have 0 Issues. If you use the older WAP based APN's you could be getting data issues but GPS should not be affected by a APN issue.
[G1 General] gotchobo:
i'm curious as well. a split between the chinese and "international" communities doesn't seem productive at all.
[G1 General] wizern23:
Like he said earlier. stop asking questions until he makes a new post. this way the thread wont grow rapidly with the same ones being asked.
[G1 General] nolageek:
Where... anywhere... did I say I know more about anything than either one of them?
[G1 General] Rayman0625:
I don't feel like the split will be very productive for the community either. I think both factions should just properly thank each other for what they've brought into the community.
[G1 General] DVS_Sokar:
Seriously Guys No Flaming. Let's trying to be the bigger person and not even respond to that type of post.
[G1 General] lilwill2806:
Successfuly flashed hero rom but cannot login into google(no network connection)

hey i have followed the few steps posted to flash hero rom to my g1 during setup screen where i would log into my google acct it keeps endine (no network or sim error what could i do to fix this unable to access internet/market .
[G1 General] Rayman0625:
Also no need for the language Frogg. It's really not needed on these forums.
[G1 General] Rukus911:
Where exactly did u find the steps to flash this rom, and what are they?
[G1 General] nolageek:
anyone try pushing the dialer/contacts to a non-hero build?
[G1 General] l3wish:
It worked for me
[G1 General] emms007:
click on menu and add your network provider APN
[G1 General] lilwill2806:
use search bar for hero rom install, need new spl jf1.43 new radio and google for rom file becareful as this setup will/could brock phone. nevermind the network settings. just got it to work
[G1 General] twistedumbrella:
Tried it for fun. It won't install. It goes into system, replaces the existing one, and doesn't activate. It's linked into the frameworks. A lot of this build depends on other parts of the build

As for the gps, you are correct. GPS uses google's servers which are wired to epc, much like internet2 was for sidekicks and wap if for wap. Internet3 supports full browsing, but I am unsure about GPS
[G1 General] l3wish:
The Thread was closed due to incompletion of the build., Follow Twitter
[G1 General] justanothercrowd:
The APN settings are not set by default. You must go in and select epc.tmobile.com for data to work.

GPS is working here as well.

Twisted pretty much nailed it with the missing links.

This will be sorted in time...not really a concern.
[G1 General] :
gps/data not working

everyone with data or gps not working is most probably because they have not flashed the radio.zip that came with the update
[G1 General] meww:
why does the home screen look same as h6.00r2, how do I enable the home screen shown in the tutorial app, the one with blue backround and the big clock.
[G1 General] Jrbourque:
I flashed the radio but i will flash again can you point me to the radio that you are talking about please
[G1 General] haykuro:
copy libgps.so from /system/lib if you'd like gps working again. ;)

all settings and twitter works in newer builds imho. :rolleyes:
[G1 General] MonkySlap:
The one in the tuts are of the ROSIE ui which isn't in this build.
[G1 General] sinbot:
Leaked Hero build worked well enough for me. GPS actually pulled my location really fast as well from satellites. Contacts synced really fast after entering my gmail account. 5 home screens too. I didn't poke around too much and used nandroid to go back to where I was since I don't have time to get things setup right now but it seemed entirely usable and responsive to me.
[G1 General] twistedumbrella:
Hopefully you can get those watermarks out. I imagine that looks like the wonderful "Free Version" tag on that Lock2.0 haha. Personally, I wouldn't want it there, and now everyone has a shiny new ball to hold them over a bit. G'Luck.
[G1 General] l3wish:
Heads up Beta-2 is out :) twitter.com/l3wish
[G1 General] Jrbourque:
which radio are you talking about? can you link it?
[G1 General] fdisk81:
I'm going to wait for Haykuro's official release out of loyalty alone.

Keep us posted H; I'll definitely throw some money your way if you release a nice working version of it so take your time to give us a quality build and not an alpha release :)
[G1 General] eosrider:
i have to say, that spending my lunch hour or half of it anyway reading you guys ***** and moan to eachother about a underdeveloped rom has to be some of the best comedy ive read or seen in a bit.

Haykuro; Keep up the great work. looking forward to your next release.

Dan; Thanks for giving the kids their rubber balls to play with until the next coolest thing comes around.

im still laughing about the 1st guy to reply. "Wow.... Shots Fired" so classic.
[G1 General] l3wish:
The first leaked update was 70.6 MB Beta-2 is only 60.8 MB
[G1 General] defconoi:
instructions

could you share how to install hero without avoiding a brick? Also you may want to create a google code page for this project, thanks for the hard work

Defcon
[G1 General] dpgc213:
change log?
[G1 General] jriley60:
eh i tried to flash and got htc bootloop...i'll wait for haykuro's build
[G1 General] afflaq:
same here!
[G1 General] Obsidiandesire:
Easy to install hero.

Flash radio from WWW.code.Google.com/sapphire-port-dream.

Flash spl from same site

Flash Rom.

I wipe as often as I can (ewww).

Is this new rom just a condensed version or are there new features? I plan on making my own release if possible. Would prefer to get a team going (amazing programmer of a girlfriend wasn't into it =( )
[G1 General] l3wish:
Make sure you have Radio: 2.22.19.26I & SPL: - 1.33.2005 to avoid loop. I'm running the Beta-2 now :)
[G1 General] jriley60:
nm i figured it out.....i have both the radio and the correct spl still got bootloop
[G1 General] anddep:
so its just the size of the file changed?
[G1 General] :
i would but i cant find the thread anymore pm me and i might be able to send it to you
[G1 General] QDT:
No need to get excited. Hero build is cool - snappy and very nice polished but there is no Bluetooth, GPS, customizations. Wait till final is released. You don't need the bleeding edge and then complain about instability and bricks.
[G1 General] froesei:
So far I have no soft keyboard in beta 2.....
[G1 General] jriley60:
good call me either....how does this facebook stuff work as well?
[G1 General] Jrbourque:
I flashed that radio already before with the 6.0 and no gps should i flash it again you think?
[G1 General] froesei:
A restart restored the soft keyboard, but it's the original android keyboard, not the htc one. Also, the soft keyboard does not appear to have auto correct. That being said, it does seem snappier than the original beta, but obviously at a cost of missing features....
[G1 General] l3wish:
GPS not working here. I recommend you wait for future updates on Haykuros or leaked versions..
[G1 General] :
hero beta 2 changes

so far the only changes i have aseen are the lack of a soft keyboard, the update file being smaller, the camera app changed back to original (rubbish one), and 4mb more system memory
[G1 General] lilwill2806:
i agree this rom rocks, ater setting up my apn settings cant beat it, hope to see the final rom soon
[G1 General] minty1978:
me too, I would rather wait for a decent H release, rather than an alpha test...
