yea i think so...didnt your G1 come with it from t-mobile ? i know mines did...
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Still using 1.7? Dear lord have mercy. Upgrade to 1.84b. Does appstosd automatically and has both Rosie and Launcher.

I choose to remove launcher.

Official Hero

Are you going to get an official rom from the htc hero soon?
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
It says Swap: 32760 KB

Used 76 KB

Free: 32684

This is correct for my settings of 32/10 right?
[G1 Android Development] jamizzal:
lol i know that seems to be the easy route but im a little weird i still like the icons/graphics from 1.7 that resemble the ophone like the battery and etc. Thats kinda another reason why i havent done it yet, and when you say it does auto apps2sd that means all your apps on the sd will already be imported back or carried over please elaborate im still a little new on apps2sd havent started to use it until the hero roms...and the set up time is also another reason i have put off on the update
[G1 Android Development] jamizzal:
yes everything is up running and is functional
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Yup, you are good sir. The used and free numbers will fluctuate, obviously: but you're good.

Sometimes it hangs on starting... just click get info to make sure you're up and running.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Does it for you. Brings the stock - properly odexed apks and dalvik cache - over to /system/sd/ (ext2 or ext3) for you. the AppstoSD app included in the build is for apps you download from market.

He is also using sym/binds - and upgrade!

Anyway, I backup all my apps and keep them on my sd card (fat32) that way I just download installer from the market and I'm up and running in no time.
[G1 Android Development] mjb337:
can you direct me to the link where i can download JACHero 1.8bv4?...thankz

@fleshdeep

Yeah the headset adaptors work, I am using one I ordered from ebay right now with some skullcandy 3.5mm headphones. With the v4 audio mod it sounds excellent. This is what I ordered: http://cgi.ebay.com/3-5mm-Headset-A...66:2|39:1|72:1205|240:1318|301:1|293:1|294:50

Good price for both and they work well.

@jamizzal

The terminal commands are as follows. You had it going correctly, this assumes Rosie.apk is on your sdcard root:

$su

#mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

#busybox cp /sdcard/Rosie.apk /data/app_s

#exit

#exit

You may have to reboot but that should get it for you. Don't know how Rosie uninstalled itself before

And I am using 32/20 for my swapper settings b/c I listen to music most of my workday and I text and such so this helps me greatly. When I first saw swapper I didn't feel the need b/c no other build lagged like Hero. This is a great addition, propz to JAC for adding it and whoever gave him the heads up on it

Thanks for the response. How is audio mod v4 with ringtones as far as volume?
[G1 Android Development] Do0zman:
1. Open the terminal emulator

2. type "su" hit enter

3. wait... itll ask for permission click allow.

4 type "chmod 777 /data/app" hit enter

and you're done.

Weather Widget

Has anyone realized that when you try to set the weather app and tap the blank widget it gives a rosie force close? I love this weather widget and would love to be able to use it.. Other then that this build is light years of in improvement :DWE'RE HEADED IN THE WRIGHT DIRECTION W/ HERO:D GOOD WORK JAC!!
[G1 Android Development] Lakers3408:
ALSO.... once running APPS2SD will all future apps auto install to sdcard or do I need to run it again later???

Anyone have an idea about this or some insite???

boot loop

ok i installed it everything was fine did apps to sd everthing was fine 46 free i restarted and not stuck on boot loop anyone else have this problem
[G1 Android Development] wizern23:
@justanothercrowd do we have to use marcus's new tutorial to get a2sd working in 1.5?
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Yea, I have a similar question. What exactly is/are UnionFS? A different way of appstosd? Similar to The Dudes? Also, @justanothercrowd, are you going to reduce the number of screens soon?
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
UnionFS what is this and whats the .zip for? People don't all know off hand such as my self because i cant keep up with everything. Second that app does not work well i just tried again for the 10th time and still same thing all apps disappear and loops the phone wont be trying that again. Also is there any big fixs coming soon or is haykuro the only one who can fix them. Because he does not want to finish his work and we are left here to figure stuff out on our own which kinda sucks but i do know why he is no longer here.

Bluetooth

Lockscreen issues (will personalize ever work?)

Led issues

removing some home screens to give more speed

Hero camera (Not the sapphire camera)

Home screen not rotating with keyboard open causing so many force closes

Having enter chmod 777 data/app to download from the market (This is new to this build)

etc....the list goes on

Is there no way to compress this O.S such as default theme,kernals etc...to make it run normal i know we have RAM problems but the build is huge thats why almost 80mb takes three days to download and still very buggy.
[G1 Android Development] justanothercrowd:
Screen reduction for Rosie is on the list...havent got my head around it yet. :)

UnionFS support the new method of APPS2SD...the old method should work as well using the included app.

I will update after talking to Marcus about the other app for UnionFS.
[G1 Android Development] justanothercrowd:
Home screen rotatoin for Rosie isnt working for any build...degguging the issues that plague all builds will be last..as it is the toughest :)

If you are looping after Apps2SD you most likely don't have a mounted EXT2 partition, or yours is damaged and needs to be re-created.

I know the APPS2SD works as I have about 40 emails thanking me for it..so let's see if we can gets yours running.

Terminal "df" what do you have?
[G1 Android Development] justanothercrowd:
Messing around with CramFS to try and save some space by mounting system folders
[G1 Android Development] chrisag92:

Thanks for your timely response, I'm flashing now will let you know how it goes.
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
here ill format the card again and do the df what info do you need? I formated it a lot of times and nothing but ill try again that box that says move current apps needs to be checked correct?

[G1 Android Development] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Anyone using the new ROM with unionfs: If you have unionfs set up DO NOT use my appstosd app(the original one). If you do it'll first delete all your apps and then make self-pointing symlinks on your /data directory which will make it so your phone will boot loop.

EDIT: Another thing, is "chmod 777 /data/app" really necessary? That's a pretty big security hole that opens up. Can't you just make the system be the owner by doing: "chown 1000 /data/app"?(I believe user 1000 is the system but not 100% sure, can anyone confirm?)
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Oh yea, nearly forgot, I saw on your twitter last night (sorry, I just need to download all of your ROMS right when they come out) that you were possibly getting another dump/source. How has that played out?
[G1 Android Development] defconoi:
Awesome, ya cramfs or squashfs works great with aufs and unionfs, ill be following your progress

[G1 Android Development] The Great NY:
going back to JF 1.5

this is missing too much, no email app, on Gmail. too buggy, get force cloes randomly
[G1 Android Development] superg05:
i guess I'll just reinstall use apps2sd move apps don't touch dalvic cache and pray i don't reboot bye the time my system gets buggy from no reboots a new build will be out and I'll try again
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
I don't mean to be a jerk, but the tut for you appstosd 2 app is extremely obtuse. There is more work than using Lucid's method and I still had to pay .99 for an app that seemingly does nothing. Is there a manual way to do unionfs?
[G1 Android Development] mjb337:
thankz a many Bro
[G1 Android Development] jamizzal:
o ok cool i may look into that...i got nothing but time today ima miss the battery though i thought it looked cool lol and the signal. But quick question how do u back up the apps that are already on your ext2 partition ? Just in case for when i get my new sd card.
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
Thank you both!
[G1 Android Development] chrisrj28:
I mean they are obviously not as loud as v2 or v3 but still have good volume and they ring a little clearer now.

Jamizzal did you get the terminal commands I posted? Let me know if that works, thats how I move stuff around
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
I just mount my ext2 partition in Ubuntu and pull the apps to desktop. After having found and collected all the apps I want, I keep them in folder that I'll move to sdcard when need be.

You can also use "BackUp for root users"
[G1 Android Development] jamizzal:
i didnt see em but i think ima do a quick update to 1.8bv4 to be as current as possible o well i enjoyed the ophone graphics while they lasted lol...
[G1 Android Development] jamizzal:
i have backup for root users but idk where the app backs the stuff from ext2 partition to lol, so wat i did was since i have all my apps installed at the current moment i just used astro to back em all up, since even the apps on the ext2 partition were shown.
[G1 Android Development] jamizzal:
ur welcome no problem man
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
Are you in Jersey BTW?
[G1 Android Development] jamizzal:
yep NJ lol
[G1 Android Development] jamizzal:
@Chris

i do see em now lol...i didnt look up in the thread lol...but im going to go ahead and run with the update. is the audio still as loud in 1.8bv4 as it was in the 1.7 build ? i love that especially when bumpin some tunes...
[G1 Android Development] horrorwolf:
Hey, does anyone here know if Exchange and the original clock widgets are in 1.8bv4??? If so I'll try it out.
[G1 Android Development] Ai.alexibarra:
Market

anyone having trouble downloading from the market?i try and download apps and it says installation unsuccessful and the installation error comes up blank.

(im using 1.84b)
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
Yes, they are.
[G1 Android Development] Henchman:
Any way to get swapper to have swapfile on the internal memory?
[G1 Android Development] horrorwolf:
Cool I'll give this a whirl.

;)
[G1 Android Development] chrisrj28:
That is a nice idea but where would the needed memory come from? You would have to cut into your available app memory.
[G1 Android Development] Henchman:
Well, since we're using appstosd, I'd happily use 32 megs of the internal memory.

Still leaves 20 meg of unused space
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
I must say...this latest ROM update is by far the FASTEST and most reliable I have used yet.
[G1 Android Development] matthewngsm:
Newly updated to JacMan's 1.8bv4

For some reason none of the google widgets work on me... like when I tried to put calendar on homescreen it just makes Rosie force closes... any ideas what went wrong?

and the camera button is still not working, but i thought from the specs. shown on first page it's fixed?
[G1 Android Development] horrorwolf:
hmmm....

I'm flashing now, I'll let you know if I get the same issues after Apps2sd sets up.
[G1 Android Development] armoredraven:
Hey dude, if you want, I can port the ophone graphics to the 1.8 launcher if you like. I can also do the framework.apk that includes the icons at the top... It shouldn't be that hard.

Oh, and if I don't want apps2sd, if I remove the apps2sd.apk from the update.zip, will it no longer auto run? What other files should I remove?
[G1 Android Development] horrorwolf:
All Google widgets are working fine for me.
[G1 Android Development] jamizzal:
whew 1.8bv4 is blazing fast even with rosie omg...lol...but that would be awesome my man, i really just like the ophone graphics for some reason lol. and about the apps2sd idk because when i first used 1.8bv4 none of my apps were there only a few i had to run the apps2sd app then press copy apps 2 sd to get my apps back. So im not sure exactly how its set up, some showed up but alot didnt.
[G1 Android Development] matthewngsm:
ouch... thx horrorwolf for the quick response. though that means something is wrong with my g1 and it's unusual... :( I flashed from Cyanogen's 3.4.4, but i applied a wipe whenever i switched from rom to rom, so I don't really know what the real problem is... do you have ext2 or 3 as ur sd partition?
[G1 Android Development] jamizzal:
is it just me, or can you not edit your notification and ringtone sounds ?
[G1 Android Development] sacredsoul:
Cant wait to try the new beta. Im a little sceptical coz Im one of those guys who believes Hero can never be a speedy ROM in G1. Waiting for my Class 6 card before trying though.
[G1 Android Development] armoredraven:
Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think i've ever been able to do that, unless I pushed a different mp3 file to the phone itself...
[G1 Android Development] jamizzal:
i have ringtones and etc created but whenever i press something to try and access them it gives me a force close.
[G1 Android Development] chrisrj28:
That happened to me a few times on 1.65. I believe the sdcard isnt mounting correctly. Try a reformat and then load your sounds ringtones. I did that and it worked for me.
[G1 Android Development] horrorwolf:
Yeah, I agree, Im using ext2 atm.

If I were you I would clear your ext2/ext3 partition before and after Hero builds.

;)
[G1 Android Development] matthewngsm:
It's so sad I don't seem to be able to find anything helpful for my problem after searching around for 30mins... this is like my 3rd encounter with a hero rom but it never quite satisfied me cuz of speed issue. This time, i finally see something that's almost as fast as a normal rom but then trivial problems like this turns me off... too bad i m going back to cyanogen's or ravenge~ good work though JAC this is really a promising rom to whoever gets this to work on their G1~ I will join you guys when the hot potato is ready to serve~ :P
[G1 Android Development] justanothercrowd:
1.8b4 version with ophone graphics uploading now...find in the download section in the first post
[G1 Android Development] jamizzal:
thank you that was quick JAC
[G1 Android Development] sxfx:
Well I for one say I got this working beautifully.

Took my SD card mounted on my Ubuntu box, formatted everything properly, and flashed.

Did aps2sd after words and put tons of icons and widgets all over the screen and was just amazed how blazing fast it is and that was before overclock.

Just folks don't do what I did, I didn't realize that swapper is ran automatically at start up and mounted my SD card, the minute I did that and then unmounted it again all hell broke loose, and until you can get your sd card separately mounted and re formatted on your PC, your phone will be stuck at the G1 screen, so now Im phone less until i can get home to my card reader hehe.

Good idea would be is if someone maybe made a widget for swapper or if there was a way to build in a safety fail into hero that detects if you have swapper running when plugged into the PC and wont let you mount unless you turn swapper off. Just an Idea.

One other problem that doesn't bother me as much yet is I forclose every time I try to attach an image to my message.

Il keep playing with it and keep you guys updated.

But so far this thing is awesome.

Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
holy smokes! so the 1.8b4 thats up is the one your describing or will there be 2 1.8b4's, one with the new graphics? thanks
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
I second the swapper switcher or auto shut off, and the pic attach in sms also
[G1 Android Development] Zarboz:
is 1.8v3/4 worth going to if im at at 1.8v2? i have everything put back together the way i like and weather working is it a huge speed diff?
[G1 Android Development] xadaniman:
Bugs but still awesome

heres a list of bugs

lanscape

mms attach

display drivers (from lag or incomplete display drivers)

wallpaper

Music and weather work without lag very nicely done!!!!!
[G1 Android Development] armoredraven:
Thanks JAC. I like the original graphics over the ophone ones, but I like the idea of the highlight things being blue rather than green.

The background that shows when you highlight an icon, or whatever else.

If I wanted to take that, but keep the notification bar icons the same, what file would I need to edit? I thought that the notification bar icons are in the framework_res.apk, is that the same location for the highlight part?

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] justanothercrowd:
1.8v4 has a more robust and reliable APPS2SD method that works on boot...it is also faster..and more effecient in how the VM parses data

There will be 2 versions of the builds for the most part due to request.

1 regular build using the stock Hero graphics and another that is EXACTLY the same except using ophone graphics
[G1 Android Development] maydaysos:
quick question, The version that uses ophone graphics, does it also use the ophone transitions ie. the card/cube? or is it just using the pngs for icons and whatnot
[G1 Android Development] armoredraven:
Just uses pngs for icons... It is like the ophone theme in the themes section here I'm pretty sure. It doesn't use the actual graphics/ home app.
[G1 Android Development] horrorwolf:
This is the smoothest running Hero I've ever flashed JAC, thanks for all the hard work man....

The only question is that I prefer the original HTC clocks, not the google version. How can I go about getting them loaded back on this build?
[G1 Android Development] BigWorldJust:
So is this currently the fastest build? Faster than SuperHero v2?
[G1 Android Development] sxfx:
One more quick thing.

Anyone have problems syncing their contacts between their Google account and phone?

It seems like if I add a contact through gmail it will update to my phone, but if I add it on the phone it wont add it to the gmail, meaning if I wipe and reflash its gone.?

Any suggestions or is it just me?
[G1 Android Development] horrorwolf:
There are no problems with Gmail Contacts. I think your issue is related to the HTC contacts which are independant of Google...(I think they allow you to save contacts to the phone instead).
[G1 Android Development] horrorwolf:
With Swapping enabled, Definitely.
[G1 Android Development] BigWorldJust:
And how do you enable Swapping?
[G1 Android Development] justanothercrowd:
Exactly. I havent messed with changing too much around as I'm more concerned with function. If you come up with some nice changes please let us know
[G1 Android Development] armoredraven:
Included in the new version is the app "Swapper"

Running it uses the SD card for extra memory space and lets the phone run smoother, allowing Rosie to be on constantly, without restarting.

Just open the app, set the swap values and turn it on.
[G1 Android Development] horrorwolf:
1.8bv4 has it active by default once you flash, but you can also customize your settings.
[G1 Android Development] sxfx:
Cool, I rather have them directly save to gmail, and then re download when needed.

Its not too big of a hassle Im sure Il figure out a way.

Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] horrorwolf:
JAC, found a bug.

When you have headphones attached, it sends the phone into a reboot repeatedly until they are removed. I'll keep looking for other issues.
[G1 Android Development] slyfury:
has bluetooth been worked into the build?
[G1 Android Development] I7oobie:
This is a very good build. Almost as smooth as cupcake itself! Keep up the good work!
[G1 Android Development] chrisrj28:
This has happened to me as well but only when I had the two way splitter with my phone plugged to PC & headset. Only happens occasionally, I have it just plugged into cpu and no problem. May be the splitter, were you using one by chance?
[G1 Android Development] BigWorldJust:
Awesome. Do I need to have my SD Card partitioned for swapping to work?
[G1 Android Development] chrisrj28:
No that's not a necessity, the swap file allocates space in the fat32 portion of your sd
[G1 Android Development] BigWorldJust:
Nice, so I don't need apps2sd for this to run smoothly than :D?
[G1 Android Development] jamizzal:
no but you will need it if you ever want some things like more than 4 apps from the market or browsing on the browser or steel for the cache...
[G1 Android Development] doubleokneegro:
Auto EXT2/EXT3 APPS2SD (Cyanogen SYM/BIND) on boot (this will automatically set you up for APPS2SD if you have an EXT2/EXT3 partition on your SDCard!)...use the included APPS2SD apk ONLY to move newly installed apps from the market

it has an auto apps2sd, assuming you have partitioned your card correctly.. ext2 or ext 3... but if you dont have it i guess it does not apply the auto apps2sd...

try it out, unless someone else gives u a more direct answer
[G1 Android Development] cjlyrix:
the way i check is install alot of apps and go back to my sd/phone memory and see how much is moved... so far its been installing in the sd

Hey jac, can you please include the loudest audio mod in your next update? The volume in your builds are horribly low. Ecspecially in the ear speaker. Thank you for all you hard work. It is appriciated.
[G1 Android Development] Ai.alexibarra:
This is a problem that ive had with all of the JAC roms, (not a knock down i love your stuff!), but its blazing smooth for about the first hour and then after that its a lagfest. i check task manager and the same processes are running as in the first hour, ive even closed the mail app and the home apk (even though it comes back up). after restarting it starts back up just fine. just an FYI :) btw do u have a donation token?
[G1 Android Development] xyrcncp:
Are you using an overclocker?
[G1 Android Development] Ai.alexibarra:
I thought the roms were pre clocked at 528
[G1 Android Development] Zarboz:
ill give it a shot when i get off tonight and see how it performs

thx jac
[G1 Android Development] xyrcncp:
I remember JAC stating somewhere in the thread that they weren't, that's why there's always talk about overclocking apps. My 1.8bv3 hasn't slowed down since I installed it yesterday.
[G1 Android Development] armoredraven:
When I was on 1.72, the rom was preclocked to 528, but the problem is that the phone would not always run it that fast, it would keep using the minimum, which was set to 380 or something.

I have a question. If I were to edit images within Rosie.apk, would it need to be re-odexed in order to be as fast as it previously was?
[G1 Android Development] BigWorldJust:
I thought this had the LED fix?
[G1 Android Development] xyrcncp:
It was taken out until a final fix is done, at least that's what I think the reason was.
[G1 Android Development] BigWorldJust:
Ah, thanks.
