lol.. i can skim thru, professional flasher here, just dont have time during the week to do much except for read and see if the rom is stable enough for a full days use at work.. mainly need music player working with usb headset working, and good battery life.. thats why im still on Virtudude rogers rom.. but I will probably flash this rom tomorrow when i get off work..

probably will be another 100 pages to go thru...

jac 1.8b4 rom was real fast and stable, just that the battery life wasnt that good..

doin a 15 hour shift tomorrow and cant use my charger at work too much..

i use the same program how do you delete a ext because when i do it's just renamed un allocated
[G1 Android Development] igloo77055:
I tried that just now..

I don't have any bootloops at all,

Its just that the update fails to install period.

I keep trying to install the SPL

But it never seems to work even though it says its succesful

On the Camera+Power screen I get...

"Dream100 PVT 32B

HSPL10.95.3000

CPLD-4

Radio-2.22.19.26I

Oct 20 2008"

It doesn't seem to install the new SPL at all
[G1 Android Development] nasell:
Not for 2.2.1, I was getting one of 3 scenarios... 1) Flashed to approx 77% (as seen on one other post). I removed card and put it in computer and reloaded the rom, also repartitioned, formated, SDFormatted, etc etc. 2) Would Hero -> HTC Loop 3) Would get to intro screen, with gapp force closing, then on next boot would loop.

2.2.1 was a no go after 2 hours of solid attempts.

Did anyone else have to delete multiple copies of widgets off their home screen?

I had to delete the clock, tweets, HTC mail and bookmarks 4 times to get rid of them!

i have had still no luck with getting the alarm clock to work

and now i found out that i cant access the bookmarks page in the browser

i have wiped and redownloaded the rom countless times

i just dont know what to do anymore

i found an alternative for the alarm clock in the market but i dont understand why no one else has this problem?

any advice?

i havent installed any widgets yet

im trying to launch the alarm clock right after i finished logging into the phone :(
[G1 Android Development] kson913:
anyone having this problem.. i am unable to install new apps after applying apps2sd

tryed to download apps but the download just hangs there.. waited hours but still nothing

im running 1.4
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
c'mon man - its in on the first page, same post that you downloaded the rom from...

YOU NEED TO GO TO TERMINAL SU THEN "chown system.system /data/app" before you can download from the market!!!! For VK enable under Settings>Locale and Text and Reboot.
[G1 Android Development] kson913:
already tryed that soo many times the TERMINAL SU THEN "chown system.system /data/app"

still didnt work for me
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
damn i just flashed this rom... and already a problem....

you made that fat cow rosie run faster....GREAT JOB ON THIS ROM...

not the fastest rom on the block, but overclocked to 383 and she runs fast... and apps do download from market.. you just gotta do the chown command line ON THE FIRST POST...
[G1 Android Development] armoredraven:
Overclock it to 530 (only goes up to 528) and it runs just as fast as some old JF builds :D

I can even get this to run smoothly with the htc clock, calendar, music, and settings widgets installed. Sometimes even with music working in the background!
[G1 Android Development] tato22:
how do u over clock to make it go fast ?
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
search the market for a app called overclock widget... or open overclock...

overlclock widget works better for me, cause u had different settings that u can choose.
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
oh wait a minute.. i didnt even have the overclock on and it was fast, i just turned the overclock on.. .cause i had apps2sd, it showed the speed i wanted but it wasnt on yet till i clicked it and did the superuser request... now its set to 383 and its hella fast..
[G1 Android Development] armoredraven:
383 is default high speed, at least according to the SetCPU app... I think most people set 383 to minimum and set 530 or 528 to maximum- This will REALLY speed it up.

justanothercrowd - PLEASE PUT THIS IN THE ORIGINAL POST FOR THOSE THAT WANT THE STUFF THAT YOU TOOK OUT OF THE ROM TO MAKE THINGS FASTER...
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
i would set it to 528 permanent, but want to have better battery life..
[G1 Android Development] tato22:
i overclocked same thing still no diff am sick am going back to rogers i dont thing hero will ever be fast
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
@tato- I feel you on going back to rogers.. rogers rules for speed , but this is a good modded rom of hero, cause its is faster than the bare hero...

@ anyone else reading about the rom :

Everything does go a lil faster without any widgets running( htc widgets that is) ..

you can run other widgets and it wont slow down too much.. but being that this is a homescreen application by htc its gonna go slower cause it wasnt made for the g1, the hero is gonna probably have more ram and a better processor..

example if you watch the videos for the samsung i7500 android works on that device way better than it does on the g1, cause it has 8mb internal memory....

hero on the g1 is like Touchflo3d on the tmobile wing.. if you ever had one you know what im talking about, when the weather widget is running on the touchflo it slowed th wing down, same thing on the g1... i had the music widget running with no slowdown, added the messaging widget and it slowed down only when i touched the message widget... add the weather and it slows down a lil bit, not too bad cause i have it overclocked.. When you open up another application and then go back to the homescreen Rosie takes a few to load up cause it in turn has to load up all the active widgets plus the orig system... you can disable rosie and run the hero system, and that way you can keep Flash in the browser..

But yes Hero is gonna run slower..
[G1 Android Development] BigWorldJust:
Anyone got a good ringtone site? Myxer.com doesn't work with Hero for some reason.
[G1 Android Development] wiked1r:
Your right though. I stopped using my cord for the g1 and either use my sd card reader or just an adapter for the micro and do everything through the computer. But also that ext2 suggestion seems logical since jac has released the 2.0 i havent had a problem that most people are experiencing and i never bothered switching to ext3 .. and im fine
[G1 Android Development] Nismo300zx:
i believe its more efficient in handling data than ext2

by the way i just flashed 2.2.1 with a fresh ext3 partitions with swapper file at system/sd and all seems well so far...gonna overclock and test some more now
[G1 Android Development] igloo77055:
I have an ext2 part. and use my roommates camera, and a cable that has a ferrite core on it.

Never has it failed me in the past, so I can't imagine thats it...

I think my problem is the SPL, for some reason it doesn't install even though it say's its successful
[G1 Android Development] jadams212510:
Runs great its really fast i did have a small issue when i turn my phone off and turn it back on it starts up all the way to the homescreen then reboots but only dose this once then it works fine any good suggestions. One last thing how much rom is everyone ending up with after swapper I'm at 25mb shouldn't it be more?
[G1 Android Development] doooshty:
Multi-Touch in photos

I'm loving the multi touch in photos and maps...so fast and smooth. I havent heard anyone else mention this about this ROM. I am new to hero, so I wasnt aware if this has been present for awhile or not...
[G1 Android Development] aimkeeto:
ext* deals with file indexing. ext3 is a lil faster than ext2. now if we can use ext4, that would be awesome. ext4 format on my linux laptop runs really, really fast.
[G1 Android Development] southeastbeast:
**Update**

Ok, everything works!! Much thanks to Luckenbach for the moral support, and thanks to JAC and all the other guides that I linked in my process. So if anyone else is a noob like me you can do exactly what I did (I provided links for each step where I got it from) you should be ok.

XDA rules!
[G1 Android Development] Nismo300zx:
woohoo this is the fastest hero around...i didnt even have to remove any widgets on the home screen to speed it up...good work Jac u did a hell of a job here

puhh - it is 2 days ago when I flashed 1.8b4 and now there are nearly 300 new posts here :-(

I am sorry, but I have 2 questions about 2.2.1:

is it faster then 1.8b4 (also when I do not use swapper but I use Openoverclocker)? because it works good for me ...

Are there the same functions like in the 1.8 build with camera, widgets etc?

Thanks for any help
[G1 Android Development] Nismo300zx:

so im coming from what was .06r.. now im reading this correctly its asking me to reformat my sdcard completely before installing the new one? thats necessary right? ionno im kinda iffy on repartitioning.. i didnt have to before coming from 1.86 to 06r but its necesassary to do so before installing?
[G1 Android Development] kkll70:
Well I have everything running but for some reason im sort of going in and out of lag.

I have a 1 GB sdcard partitioned 500/500 ext2. I havent done anything to it besides partition it. I droped jachero flashed and im in hero. Is there anything I could do to make it faster?
[G1 Android Development] doooshty:
I really am shocked at how much faster 2.2.1F is than 2.1f. This thing is smooth and speedy. This is the most usable Hero ever.

My friends have been dying to have me install Hero on thier G1s and I have been holding off because I have felt it's not ready for prime time. I think this is the first build so far that I could load onto their phones and not have them ***** about it...Great job JAC
[G1 Android Development] samethsom:
Remove widgets/apps you don't use. You can use overclock and swapper, there's a big improvement with those 2.

Remember, the more widgets on your home screen the more lag....well, for me that is, Not sure about other members...
[G1 Android Development] Nismo300zx:
well i wouldnt say necessary but 95% of the problems have been fixed by reformating/re-partioning...so to avoid that i would recommend it

Help, and I'm out of state

Hey guys I'm currently out of state and wish to update to 2.21 from 1.8bv4 but I'm running into some issues as I don't have access to several resources. If anyone can help that would be amazing. Thanks

1. Is reformatting the SD card necessary? Will it cause problems if i don't?

- Reason, I don't have access to using Paragon Partition Manager or Linux

and am not allowed to download them on this comp, not even the trial.

2. If reformatting IS necessary... how can I wipe info on my EXT3 partition without removing the partition at all? (If that is possible, would that actually help on what I'm trying to do. If anyone gets what I'm trying to do.

-If it is possible (which I'm pretty sure is unlikely what are the steps?)

**ughh I cant stand 1.8bv4 so slowwwwwww and the endless loading when pressing Home**

[G1 Android Development] youneek:
For everyone having bootloops and other issues. This is how I fixed the issue when I had it last night with the last release.

1.) Wipe the phone

2.) Go to console and delete everything in ext3

mount -o rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd
cd /system/sd
rm -r *

3.) Mount the phone to copy your files over

echo /dev/block/mmcblk0 > /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun0/file

4.) Once update.zip is copied over I click fix ext (just incase)

5.) Install and reboot.

I had it error once during the install. I rebooted the phone and re-copied over the update.zip. In console they were the exact same size so the reboot and re-install was probably all it took to fix.

If that helps, great! If not, sorry but these shortcuts can help in the future.

when i flash the next update ( if you come up with one tomorrow ) i will post them including the setup process..

* also noticed that if you have overclock installed to the ext2, let all the apps that normally start up run and go thru the superuser allow process 1 by one before hitting back or home to skip them.. this causes alot of failed startups..

overclock, swapper, and overclock widget will pop up for sure after the phone starts up... just a FYI for the impatient flashers !!!
