apps2sd

For those wanting to apps2sd. This worked for me.

1. Format sd card with fat32/ext2

2.Download JacHERO 1.4 and extract apps2sd.apk

3. Run apps2sd and copy apps to sd card.

4. Reboot

5. Enjoy Superhero beta w/ apps2sd

This worked for me...

try this from the first post

Restore Original Boot Screen:

I didnt like the new boot screen, so I changed it back to the cute little bots peeking behind the HTC logo, this is how you do it:

Download: http://drop.io/HeroPorts/asset/cutebot-zip

Extract that to anywhere

adb remount

adb push boot.gif /system/media

adb push boot.mp3 /system/media

enjoy those little guys
[G1 Android Development] munnabhai13:
try this and if that doesnt work let me know

-rename font files to DroidSans.ttf and DroidSans-Bold.ttf, place in subfolder (e.g. london/) on sdcard.

- Boot to recovery

- Alt+X

- press enter

Write:

mount sdcard

mount system

cp sdcard/london/* system/fonts

umount sdcard

umount system

reboot

Hey yall im using apps to sd v1 and i moved my apps and thats fine but the cache still uses internal mem. Even after a reboot and retry. Is there another way i can do this cuz if i can get the in.mem. to stay at the same ill use this rom
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
i believe exchange was removed you have to push the PCSCII.apk if it was removed
[G1 Android Development] uberingram:
I would really love to see your signature get even bigger. It's not nearly huge enough.
[G1 Android Development] mongofrye:
okay, i'm going to ask a quick question that shows my inexperience. How do i push items to my phone? can you push from your sd card? from your computer? How would i begin to set my computer up to do that? Just point me to a thread if possible...i've tried to muddle my way through general area of forum and can't find direction on the basics. Thanks.

Ok i made my sig smaller so maybe someone might answer my question

Apps to sd works, cache to sd is not. I have tried 3 methods

1. Appstosd v1

2. Cyanogen's recovery alt+M option

3. Manual terminal entry

So can anyone give an idea?
[G1 Android Development] DroidHead:
Can ANYONE explain how to get your apps on to the SD in here????? I have heard 15 different ways, all which are vague as h***.

I have no room for applications with Superhero v1, what is the definitive way of getting ALL of the apps on to our SD card !?!?
[G1 Android Development] custom374:
Best thing is to wait for V2 to come out. They are including Apps2sd.apk in it i believe. With that its pretty simple. Just run the app.
[G1 Android Development] busterz:
What's the difference b/t SuperHero v1 BETA.zip and SuperHero v1 BETA 2.zip ?

They are both at: http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=4067d2e9394f49a91bee9a6e9edd9c76e04e75f6e8ebb871

Memory

Hi, may i know why is this rom is bigger than JACHero rom? i did the same method by removing all apps that i do nt need, i am just left with simple apps, such as dialer, messaging etc.. rosie was removed. I am left with 12 MB of space only, if i am nt wrong JACHero was left with 30 MB.Thank You.
[G1 Android Development] Freddy2Fred:
This rom is great but its kinda slow and it has issues. To many force close and etc. When it freezes the phone automactically resets. And whats up with that corny music on the startup screen. Its annoying.
[G1 Android Development] JakeEv:
He describes the differences on his website:

"Beta2 will include apps2sd app, superuser, busybox, terminal, and also apps will be symlinked for greater internal space after apps2sd. All stock fonts, boot screens, and Rosie.apk will be put back being no one liked the remix version :( lol. All widgets have been ripped out and will be available for download for those who wish to use them. No more force close on Clock widget, I have received a whopping 67mb free on internal after apps2sd and moving dalvik cache. Internal depends on what you choose to add or remove. New lock screen wallpaper. Dalvik vm from ion was added, No support for ext3 at the moment, but will be soon :) I'm still cooking so If anything else changes ill let you guys know.......:)"

Also, thanks for letting me know it was online ;)
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
I'm wondering that too. From what I can gather the v2 has the widgets split out and possibly some changes made, as it is a smaller file but not so small as to make up the difference between v1 and v2 when the widgets are added into the mix.

If that makes any sense.
[G1 Android Development] Ronnymes:
I had the same problem, and also with other ROMS, so i'm back to the onrooted version and try it again..
[G1 Android Development] JakeEv:
Just booted beta 2. So far I already like it better than beta 1. Original boot screen is back. :) Rebooted when trying to load Rosie the first time, then it was fine. No more blue dock bar. As stated before, if you want widgets, you'll have to install them yourself using package installer (super simple). Initial free space, without running apps2sd: 15mb. Seems pretty good so far
[G1 Android Development] peary27:
are the widgets in the zip file, or will they have to be downloaded separately?
[G1 Android Development] JakeEv:
The widgets are in a separate "widgets.zip" file. Just extract to your sd card and use a file manager to select/install them.
[G1 Android Development] peary27:
Nice! Did u wipe or straight flash?
[G1 Android Development] JakeEv:
I wiped, because I was coming from JACHero. I think you might be okay to not wipe if coming from beta 1 of Hero, but if it boot loops, you'll have to wipe. Good luck though, I hope you don't have to. I've also heard that there is something you can install to never have to wipe, but it's not that big a deal to me.
[G1 Android Development] mongofrye:
Exchange Server

Okay, ver 1 is actually pretty smooth. One of big features with Hero is exchange capabilities. it is not installed on here. What is the best method to get it working and where can i get the right file?
[G1 Android Development] JakeEv:
I think it's in beta 2. I at least have the option of setting it up (it's not greyed-out, like before) but I only use the Google sync, so I can't verify if it's working or not
[G1 Android Development] l3wish:
Who gave you beta2?
[G1 Android Development] JakeEv:
You did. Probably un-knowingly, but still it was online so I went for it :) I clicked the link to the download of beta 1 and there was a folder of uploads from this morning around 10:30 and "SuperHero v1 Beta2.zip" and "Widgets.zip" were in there, so I thought I'd try them out. Hope you're not upset, I was just excited to try it so I hopped right on it and I actually like it much better than beta 1.
[G1 Android Development] JakeEv:
That is, I got it from the downloads on your site, not necessarily from you if someone else has the access to upload on there...

Again, I'm sorry if it wasn't supposed to be there, but I just downloaded for my own personal enjoyment, not to distribute ;)
[G1 Android Development] mdanerd:
just upgraded to beta2, a bit faster, pretty stable so far, but same facebook photo error :( i swear its just my luck because most people report it working.

SuperHero beta 1 & 2

Can anyone that is using either of these two builds tell me if the notification LED is working yet... or POP3 email other then google?

thanks

Peace
[G1 Android Development] DroidHead:
Very nice.... beta 2 is more like the original Rosie UI...

The apps to Sd works good . . . I think :)

My only problem is that it keeps unmounting the sd card. . . anyone else having this issue?
[G1 Android Development] JakeEv:
robbie: still no notification lights. I believe that beta 2 has the email support, but don't quote me on that
[G1 Android Development] robbie725:
Damn.. ok thanks Jake... wish knew more about this I would look into it myself... seems like it would be an easy fix....:confused:
[G1 Android Development] Maisum:
Currently have beta1. It's stable but lags every now and then, for the most part its "GOOD".

It's definently much faster than hykaro's release of hero.

Ill report stability once upgraded to beta2
[G1 Android Development] busterz:
anybody have trouble turning WIFI on?

I just installed V2. When i click 'turn on' it says. 'unable to start wifi'.
[G1 Android Development] JakeEv:
Yeah, sometimes I wish I was as smart as these guys. I'm not sure how easy it'd be, but I heard something on AndroidCommunity to the effect of "Hero doesn't rely on notification leds, but rather it outputs to the keypad lights"? Not sure if it's true, but if it does send a light notification of some sort, I'd believe it is fixable. Probably just not a high priority until they get Hero running completely stable first.
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
Beta 2 lite is being uploaded right now....you will need to add your own widgets but please be careful and load the right things or you will cause force closes lol
[G1 Android Development] DroidHead:

68mb available?? lol what did you remooove? I removed like 15 things and only got 28mb space, and had quite a few icons gone, but I see not much different there but you have a lot more space...thats good :). Cant wait to try this one. [More space really seems to make a difference]

Did that work for you? Cause it didnt for me.

Actually everyone, check!!!

About to try this one, will report from B1 to B2
[G1 Android Development] teh_lorax:
btw, where is the widgets zip?
[G1 Android Development] Maisum:
SuperHero v1 Beta 2 Report

--First start up was slow.

--No more japanese intro. It's now the HTC guy coming from behind the letters.

--Much more stable then beta1 [by about 80%]{meaning less random lag spikes}

--No problems with WIFI.

--Still NO LED notification light. [I think there's an app in the market that changes LED notification light, you can try that out]

--The lock screen wallpaper is the one with the light bulb coming out of a box with the HTC guy inside the bulb. Some kind of abstract.

--When trying to change the lock screen wallpaper, it force closes.

--Weather widget works. Has a cool animations that perform smoothly; Having some trouble changing the location though. Every time i click the widget it says Activity is not ready to execute.

--Still only has one default ringtone. It's called Standard 3. Sounds like a normal house phone ring.

--The notifications sounds were taken away. There's only one now which is called ascending.

--Landscape mode doesn't auto rotate anymore. Beta1 did.

If you're thinking about getting this ROM, its definitely worth your time. It is 110% faster than hykaro's hero build.
[G1 Android Development] diaztradeinc:
Reboot and violaaa :D
[G1 Android Development] diaztradeinc:
Weather.apk is needed to change location, i left that out because the widget finds your location itself, and I saved more by leaving it out.
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
on the lite version please be careful installed the weather widget. there is an apk that has to be moved over that i can't figure out yet. DCSweather is already on the rom as well as weather provider, i moved over weather apk and the weather widget but still get force close we know its an apk because the only difference between lite and full is obviously the apks. If anyone figures out the mystery please let me know
[G1 Android Development] Maisum:
But I'm not in Tokyo :(

lol..It isn't auto detecting my location
[G1 Android Development] theslam08:
7mb from fresh install is pretty 'non' lite to me...much less than b1.

Things right off the bat actually seem quite a bit heavier to me. WIll have to go through and delete a ton of stuff again, restart and try again.

Thanks for update though :D. Updates are good no matter what.
[G1 Android Development] inpherno3:
almost everything crashes on beta 1 and beta 2. Acore, (just looked at my phone after sending a txt message) and now process com.android.mms force closed. Rosie constantly force closes, not to mention acore and phone process'.
[G1 Android Development] Rayman0625:
Did you wipe between installs from Beta 1 to 2? I've been running this build solidly for hours with no force closes at all.

[G1 Android Development] djdeviance:
66mbs free after aps2sd v1. Beta 2 is running alot smoother then the first one.
[G1 Android Development] Six6Sicks:
Is there a way to change Weather widget settings? I would rather temp be in Fahrenheit.
[G1 Android Development] Maisum:
I had the same problem. This is what you have to do.

In the link provided below, there's two download links. One for the RADIO and one for the SPL.

DO THE RADIO FIRST!!!

http://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/downloads/list (it should be the first two download links.)

Here's how to do it

downlaod it

rename it to update.zip

put it on your SD. If you cannot access your SD because it keeps starting in the recovery mode, you will need to put it on your SD from a card reader.

and then flash it...

do the same for both, radio then spl

after that you can put the hero rom on your SD from a card reader if its still starting up in recovery mode only.
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
go into weather apk and then its in the settings in there
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
Okay My bad guys i thought the lite version was uploaded it was not lol. It is being uploaded right now just be careful like i said before with the weather widget it force closes rosie until i can find the apk that we are missing
[G1 Android Development] Six6Sicks:
I feel super dumb for asking, but how would I go into weather apk?
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
go to your app slider and its at the bottom
[G1 Android Development] Six6Sicks:
I don't have any Weather app in my app drawer. Weird. The Widget works, I just can't change settings when I tap the widget.
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:

[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
yeah im not actually using the full version of v2 im using the lite version so im still trying to figure out how to get the weather widget to work on the lite version

juts went from beta 1 to beta 2 and soon as i got it running i ran apps2sd app and then rebooted and trying to instlal apps from market it says app instalion unsuccesful wat do i do i need APPS! although the apps that were moved to sd like the widgits for example all work, but overall i love this build VERY FAST 150% then haykuros perfect for daily use

EDIT: also another problem im noticin is that when ever ur doin somethin then ur done and u wanna go home so i u hit home button it just takes a bit to get there
[G1 Android Development] Maisum:

Hey guys I flashed my phone with the dream.nbh to take me to RC29, then I Rooted my phone, and then installed the new radio buttons and the SPL that was provided on the previous page and now my phone hangs on the G1 screen.

Now I can re-flash it again from my dream.nbh and get it working but is there anything I'am missing to install this ROM?
[G1 Android Development] cashless:
Just flashed and I gotta say that the font is horrid. I'm not a raver from 1997. Jeez have some class. I'll report back on the actual build once I get into it.
[G1 Android Development] AbsoluteDesignz:
you downloaded the wrong file....
[G1 Android Development] mak213:
correct me if im wrong u flash rc29 then u flashed radio then u flashed spl now wat u need to do is get a memory card reader or another way to put the superhero beta 2 rom on the memory card then put it back in ur phon ethe home+power then update

because the rc29 (offical tmobile) wont allow the hacked radio and spl so u did them correctly but it wont boot because u stil lhave rc29 just put superhro beta 2 rename it to update.zip then put it on ur memory card then alt+l alt+w then alt+s then u should be good to go when it boots up for first time ur screen will hang on the HTC logo for like 3mins or so just let it sit

EDIT: when u get it running run apps2sd app inside the menu thing then move apps to sd and the cache also super permissions wil lcome up put always allow and if u get a force close just put wait then after ur done reboot and vwala
[G1 Android Development] pizzlep0p:
afta i ran apps2sd it says insufficent memory when i download an app how can this be fixed
[G1 Android Development] jroid:
it says there is support for unionfs (a2sd2) anyone tried this for beta2?
[G1 Android Development] sxfx:
Well actually I just pressed the cam button and power got into the menu and the new updated version asked me to update I kinda missed that step hehe.

So now Im about to flash with the beta2 lite and report back :)...
[G1 Android Development] magicditto:
so in the build i'm using i've played with the weather quite a bit.. and it seems in order to get the widget working, you need the following:

com.htc.WeatherWidget.apk

DCSWeather.apk

HtcLocationPicker.apk

HtcLocationService.apk

Weather.apk

WeatherProvider.apk

the DCSWeather, i'm not 100% on, but these are all from the original app_s.zip... hope this is helpful:D
[G1 Android Development] yeticomes:
Hello,

I have read all post in this thread and want to try your Hero ROM and have just one question:

I have the Dudecake with apps2sd (v1 I think) - do I have to re-format the ext2 partition or just install the spl (radio is newest version) & then flash the SuperHero 2 after a wipe and all my apps are still there?

Or do I have to use the apps2sd app in the rom or something else?

Thanx a lot for the work,

cu
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
thats wierd i have all of those loaded some are on internal memory and some on sd but i didnt think that made a difference

been using the rom since 11am. Will report back tonight about how it went...

So far rosi.apk has only crashed once on normal use while it use to crash 5 or 6 times on the beta wth light use.

Great progresss...hopefully htc will leak a hero rom since the htc hero phone is closer to its launch date

[G1 Android Development] diaztradeinc:
You dont like it? Well you have the energy to complain so i appose you have the energy to push your own fonts..correct? Have some manners we didn't make this for you! We made it for everyone so be happy...
[G1 Android Development] jdubzisfaded:
ok first off you guys compiled a wonderful update that takes the speed of hero to a new level. so once the update installed i messed around and enjoyed the speed. once i wanted to get my internal memory back i opened marcus' apps2sd application. i only used the option to move the dalvik-cache to the sd card. this brought up multiple force closes which i figured was normal. then i rebooted only to be stuck at the g1 splash screen. so i did an honorable wipe and this left me with looping android boot. so i wiped again and reinstalled the update. and when i try to move dalvik or apps it will repeat this event. i have an ext3 partition on my stock transcend 1gb microsd. i have also tried this with ext2 and both were setup with drive letters aka mounted partitions. please any advice on either setting uup my ext3 partition or how to get my apps2sd to work. any and all suggestions are appreciated/welcome
