[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xiutian:
I think you should be asking the developers of the apps you are using.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dimdimsum:
Having trouble here too, it lags when I use speak phone to listen to music and/or using bluetooth headset to listen. It only lags when it goes into sleep mode(when the screen turns off), it's fine when it's on. Will it be possible to not underclock when the screen is off (or an option would be nice) ? Please and thank you~

Was wondering if I m comin from Myhero Rom, do I need to wipe?

Coz this Rom say must wipe, whereas Myhero Rom state do not wipe aft installed...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] RtOaNn:
If you're coming from another ROM, you usually need to wipe. ;)

Only if you're updating the same ROM, then you do not need to wipe.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] 2khong2:
MyHero ROM mention tat do not WIPE aft installed..so abit confused..Though that's a wipe patch for the rom..but cant seem to update..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] seto_613:
I'd made partitions on my SD card, 7GB + 1GB, both vfat. I can mount the second vfat after system boot up by terminal or adb, but I have no idea to make the system auto mount the second vfat.

I did not see the fstab in /etc so no file system table?

I'd tried to modify mountd.conf and vold.conf in /system/etc but nothing changed.

I'd worked on this for two days, can someone tell me which file(s) i should focus on?

Thank you.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] seto_613:
root on terminal

some said this rom not rooted, whoami is not 0.

Here is a method to root. (suitable for hero and sense ui magic, not tested on other devices)

1. download 'su' and 'Superuser.apk' from my Share Folder.

2. boot as recovery mode (# reboot recovery)

3. input the following code

adb shell mount /system
adb push su /system/bin/
adb shell chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
adb push Superuser.apk /system/app/
adb shell reboot

4. the phone will reboot and rooted with Superuser Permission.

Get the busybox:

Copy the busybox to right folder.

1. adb shell cp /system/xbin/bb/busybox /system/xbin/busybox
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] SpaceBoy2000:
Huh, what do you know? Mine wasn't rooted as well. Thanks Seto!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ct809:
you will have to wipe if you're coming from another rom.

if you're coming from the same rom then u dont have to wipe

Remove Asian Input

Does anyone know how to remove all traces of this? I have no need for it.

Is it possible to go back to the way it was where if you want it you can download the extra package after the fact??
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
Just a couple things I'd like changed, and I would if I could...

I really don't need any Asian input, how can I remove it and put the HTC_IME?

The flash player in the browser isn't working. Can it be updated separate from the other files?

Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] DrSpaceman:
I've gone back to 3.0.5 because the keyboard is significantly less laggy than it is in 3.0.6 and 3.0.7. Any idea why that is? 3.0.5 was the last one without the zipaligned/optimized apk's, could that be it?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jasrups:
Hey weiss, I know working with Sense has probably been more frustrating than expected but I just wanted to say that you've done a fantastic job so far and despite some of the minor bugs, it is still the best Hero ROM I've tried!

Hopefully a Telus Hero dump will bring some added stability!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
Yes, I've done all that I could for now. Now I'm waiting for a Telus or Rogers dump...

swap

Does anyone knows how to make swapper works in this rom, or how to enable my swap partition?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] seto_613:
I tried for a few days for auto-mount and set swap/a2sd, but did not success.

fstab not exist, useless by modified mountd.conf, vold.conf and init.rc

I think the only way is to modified boot.img.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] lincore:
Thank Seto for your reply, i will try to modify boot.img.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] seto_613:
Do u mind telling me how to modify boot.img? I can't extract it and pack it.

Thanks you.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] seto_613:
I can confirm, modifying boot.img is necessary.

I'd tried boot with a boot.img with a2sd from other rom, it's hanged on HTC logo but successfully mount mmcblk0p1 and mmcblk0p2.

lincore, can u send me the boot.img after modified?

making notification led work with 3.0.7

does anyone know which package I can push from 3.0.8 into 3.0.7 to make the notification led work? only the trackball works for sms'es. and i dont have any problems with 3.0.7, e.g. awake time etc.

what's new in 3.0.8

thanks for the great rom!

im wondering what's new in the version 3.0.8

i have just downloaded it, and wanna have a try.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] midtoad:
Hotweiss hasn't released it officially yet (no notice on first page of this forum thread), but why don't you load it up and let us know what you find? :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kencix:
yup.. me too :) tell me hehe
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jvincent66:
3.0.8 was up for a while but it had too many compatibility issues so he took the link here down. The file still exists in the download folder on the hosting site, you just need to change the file name.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zortoflaven:
Anyone have a solution to the MMS issue yet?

When Im connected to WiFi, I cannot recieve or send MMS. The mobile data never engages to send/recieve. When I disconnect from WiFi, it works fine.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] roelbondoc:
I have 3.0.8 loaded on mine and works just as well as 3.0.7 as far as I can tell except for when playing music when screen is off. The cpu set to 128mhz is too low I guess, it chops up here and there.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] lifeflayer:
I think the problem only occurs if you play music with a bluetooth headset. Even with ebuddy active and streaming 128kbps shoutcast radio with the screen off I have not experienced any problems with wired headphones.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] gbil:
For the MMS to be retrieved the data connection is used. If at that point the data connection active is the WiFi you will NOT be able to retrieve the MMS, you have to switch it off in order to use the GPRS/3G data connection.

This is not a ROM specific issue and I don't think it will be resolved any time soon since this is how android handles connections.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] radonsg:
running on 3.08, upgrade from 3.07.

Overall ok. Except some small bug here & there. Like the sudden long vibrate making calls.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zortoflaven:
I understand that, however that is not how it worked when I was on the stock Rogers rom. When WiFi was active, mobile data would connect to send/recieve the MMS and then disconnect when it was done. I was not require to turn WiFi off in order to send/recieve an MMS. This ROM does not do that.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ChillyEli:
Supposedly that's an HTC problem, not this Rom's problem. I get it with 3.0.6
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] roelbondoc:
I do use wired headphones. Sometimes I can get uninterrupted music, usually after restarting my phone. It only happens after running a couple applications. Still a great ROM though!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] gbil:
Are you sure? When I was using the stock HTC ROM I had to disconnect WiFi in order to retrieve a MMS.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] smile4them:
Is anyone having a problem with sound cutting out during calls? I searched the forum and found a couple of users with the problem a few weeks ago. The call isn't dropped but the speaker on my end cuts out completely and I have to hang up and call again. It happens about 3 times out of 5 calls. Any solutions? Thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KratosAurion:
I see that this ROM is snappy and unexpectedly fast compared to the old unofficial release. But I'm having one problem that I've never experienced before on other ROMs: I can't use the marketplace. When I choose something, it tells me: Not Found: The requested item could not be found. I tried the 3.0.7 and the 3.0.8 ROMs, same problem on both for me. Am I the only one experiencing this? I'm using the 1.33.2005 ENG SPL btw, and I've never updated the radio before. And I'm on a Roger's HTC Magic. TIA. PS: Sorry if this has been answered before, I searched a bit and couldn't find any answers.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zortoflaven:
100% positive. :cool: I sent many MMS messages when I first got this phone in June while connected to my works WiFi network. Since it did work, that's why I am now so surprised by having to turn WiFi off to send/receive MMS.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dsammy:
Thanks you!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alistairfang:
anybody has the same issues as I am having?

after upgrading from original Rogers to 3.07

When I tried to add event in the calendar, it gave me "the process com.htc.calendar has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"

Is the any change I need to make?

Thank you,

I have tried every hero rom, and this is the best one I have tried on any magic.

If its not too difficult you should add the navigation from:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4920480&postcount=75

in your next update. Thanks again and keep up the good work!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ichijin:
I had the same problem, upgrading from 3.0.5 i think. What I did was wipe and apply 3.0.7 and not restore any backup.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] pmow:
Have the same issue with 3.0.7. It isn't critical though, I still get the notification that an MMS has come in, so toggling Wifi is just another step.

[EDIT]

I tried other music players, and only got sound hiccups with AntPlayer. DroidLive Lite and TuneWiki both play flawlessly, and over bluetooth.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] speedbratz:

Anyone figured out how to get navigation working on this ROM?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] silvertag:
Yes as long as its a 32a model. I don't see any other reason.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] silvertag:
It won't work in the Canada unless you use your phone in the US.

I have not seen any other ROM except cyanogen using the beta navigation.

You mean download google pinyin ime from market? I download it and enable it in settings but can't get it to show up on my keyboard. Anyone have any ideas

thanks

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] DrSpaceman:
you need to figure out what kind of magic you have - there are two types (32a and 32b). do you have a t-mobile mytouch 3g, or a vodaphone, or a rogers/singapore/other one?

when i was rooting my phone, i used a video tutorial from theunlockr.com, which tells you how to check whether you have 32a or 32b. this rom is only for 32a magics but there are plenty for 32b varieties available on this forum.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dsammy:
Nevermind I figure it out. You have to hold at the middle of the screen and prompt to select pinyin option.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rickytenzer:
Thanks for the heads up.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zortoflaven:
A tip for those with keyboard lag:

I removed HTC_CIME.* and pushed HTC_IME.apk to /system/app and libt9.so to /system/lib from the MyHero ROM and the input is a much nicer experience for me. :)

How to make keyboard work

Hi

I have tried copying 3.0.7 to SD, doing wipe, applying hofo307.zip and then applying originalkb.zip. It seems to work and I can boot into theHoFo 3.0.7 Rom just fine. But I can't find any other keyboards than English and Chinese. Am I just missing where to look for it?

If I then try to re-apply originalkb.zip after going back to recovery mode, I get an error in the apply procedure:

E:Failure at line 3:
copy_dir PACKAGE:system SYSTEM:

What am I doing wrong here? I need the Danish keyboard....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] SpaceBoy2000:
Hey hotweiss, now that the 2.0 source is out, are you going to work on making a 32A ROM for it?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jasrups:
I was wondering this as well. Hotweiss has done a great job so far at working on this ROM, but I don't see how any more improvements can be made until a Telus or Rogers release eventually comes out.

In general, I think the Sense ROMS will soon become obsolete with the release of the 2.0 AOSP (that is, until a 2.0 Sense ROM gets dumped for the Magic.. and that might be a while lol).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sadlove:
i just install 3.0.7

every thing is fine

the only problem is when i want to sync my names from outlook

and try to open pc from data sync it says

the application setting (process com.android.setting ) has stopped unexpectedly please try again :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] pmow:
Pretend I'm slow (ok, don't pretend).:p I'd love to apply this but don't know what "push" means, and removing files sounds dangerous. Could we get a version for dummies? =D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Yanguang:
The mere mention of Eclair and 2.0 excites me :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zortoflaven:
Sure, not a problem. :)

What I did was move the HTC_CIME files located in /system/app to my sdcard. I still have them, so I didn't remove them completely. This was done using the following commands:

adb shell cp /system/app/HTC_CIME.* /sdcard
adb shell rm /system/app/HTC_CIME.*

I then pushed the new files (push is like copying) like this:

For libt9.so:

adb push libt9.so /system/lib/libt9.so

For HTC_IME.apk:

adb push HTC_IME.apk /system/app/HTC_IME.apk

These files are found in the newest release of the MyHero ROM. Im trying to upload a zip with just the files, but the attachment manager here is giving me grief! If you still need them, I will upload them elsewhere after work today.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Donkey3000:
Worked fine. Thanks! Only thing I should mention for others is that I had to do this in recovery mode (go to shell from recovery menu) as it won't let you write to /system/lib while running the normal rom. In my recovery image, I had to go to the shell in order to use adb (maybe it was just lag detecting my device). "adb shell reboot" does a reboot if you get stuck there.

Cheers.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] midtoad:
yes, please!

what improvements have you seen, exactly? Faster, less laggy keyboard?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zortoflaven:
Lots less lag. Probably due to the no frills nature of it. I should mention you lose the handwritting thing by doing this. I never used it and wanted a less laggy keyboard instead.

Here is a link to the files I used:

http://www.mediafire.com/file/mnuynbt3ty2/ime.zip
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] midtoad:
Just type "adb remount" to gain read-write access to the device's ROM. Recovery mode is not needed.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jvincent66:
Just updated the keyboard files as suggested and the keyboard response is most definitely snappier.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mstolpner:
It seems like everything became more responsive not just the keyboard.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jvincent66:
I noticed that too.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] silvertag:
Thanks for the keyboard upgrade it's great. This phone keeps getting better and better.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] pmow:
<3 thanks. I finally got a few minutes to do this, and learn something

about adb in the meantime. I had some fun poking around the filesystem after I got a shell, really neat.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] stillriza:
HI everyone,

I'm not really new, I've been reading and following for a few months but just now decided to give this rom a try. I am still pretty basic but I think i got the handle of it.

I just flashed the latest rom (Version 3.0.8 )but I am getting "process com.android.phone" force closed every few seconds. I am not sure if this is a bug or it's something I screwed up.

I did the flashboot boot using recovery-RA-magic-v1.3.2H.img then followed by flashing the latest rom. I am coming from a stock rogers Magic that I rooted..stock as in no mods aside from a few downloaded apps.

My question was...I see alot of references to wiping? Was I supposed to wipe before flashing this latest rom even coming from stock? By wiping, do you guys just mean a factory reset from the settings menu? I did a nandroid backup so If anything I will just go back to that...but wanted to know.

The rom looks amazing by the way, and i'm pretty excited to get it working right.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] walie:
wipe from recovery, then flash new rom

ALWAYS wipe before flashing rom, unless you're upgrading a particular rom with a new verion and the authors says its ok to wipe to upgrade
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] stillriza:
thanks for the response. I was pretty sure i read somewhere within these 193 pages of posts that you only needed to wipe coming from another rom...and not necessary from a stock build.. but i could be wrong ;)

i will definetly give it a try and start over.

edit: I did as mentioned (wiped data partition) and started over, and so far everything is working great.

it's amazing how far this rom has gone from the very first release up until now.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] silvertag:
Like you saw a stock Rogers rom is a rom by itself. It comes with its pre packaged apps and settings. A wipe is always in order to clear any config that are set by the previous rom, unless you come from the same rom and are just upgrading it. Happy to know your clean install is working. If you haven't done so from your reading i would recommend you install the keyboard upgrade from zortoflaven, you will definitly see another increase in speed.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] pmow:
I find myself frequently rebooting to fix an issue with the keyboard. I'm pretty sure it also happened with the ROM's keyboard, as well as the "modification" from zortoflaven.

Basically, when typing and hitting space, the screen jumps to focus on the item above. In this case, messages that were just sent.

Anyone else having this issue?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zortoflaven:
I have not come across this with any keyboard. Strange issue. :confused:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MOUSEY:
I have the same problem. A quick fix is to close, reopen the screen and type again.

For example:

If you're typing on Meebo to send an MSN message and it happens, press the back button a few times (don't have to quit the app) until you close the screen. Reopen the screen by selecting the contact again and type again...

Another way to try is to switch to another application in which you can type and switch back, see if that works or not...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Malza:
For some reason I cannot do this on my device, is it because I'm using Amon RA recovery?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cole26:
Can anyone help me out? I am trying to change the keyboard as per the procedure. I have a Rogers 32A with the HoFo 3.0.7 ROM loaded and I used Amon-RA1.2.1H recovery using the Unlockr.com one-click method (which didn't change my SPL or Radio). What mode should the phone be in to use adb? 'adb devices' finds my phone only when in recovery mode. It gives back my serial no. and 'recovery'. But when I try do the procedure 'adb shell cp /system/app/HTC_CIME.* /sdcard', I get 'cp: cannot stat '/system/app/HTC_CIME.*': No such file or directory'. TIA
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Malza:
Same problem as the poster above me, I checked with ASTRO, and the file is definitely there but i cannot cp/rm it. Also when I push libt9 or HTC_IME its successful but then when i check using astro, it is not there, weird.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jdavies_88:
I have this rom installed on a now bell htc magic. The problem im facing is that i am constantly "roaming", it seems that i cant find where to change the MNC setting to trick the phone. Also when i add an apn with the correct MNC, it wont save, its as if the phone will only accept the rogers code. Any help will be appreciated.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Malza:
I found a solution, well a fix really. For some reason we don't have access to our /system files. So the best way to do this is to go to recovery mode, run your adb shell and then type in:

adb shell
mount -a

Wait till it fails/succeeds doesn't matter what, but it will hang for a minute before it responds. Then type in:

exit
adb remount

Once that is done proceed normally

adb shell cp /system/app/HTC_CIME.* /sdcard
adb shell rm /system/app/HTC_CIME.*

I then pushed the new files (push is like copying) like this:

For libt9.so:

adb push libt9.so /system/lib/libt9.so

For HTC_IME.apk:

adb push HTC_IME.apk /system/app/HTC_IME.apk

new rogers magic

Ive recived my Rogers Magic today and its my first android.

Is still untouched and Im between installing this rom or the Honk Kong Official Sense that they say is pretty fast. Is there someone that tried both and can give me pros and cons?

In the other hand, I dont know how to root my phone and install custom roms, links are welcomed.

regards
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
I'd recommend staying away from HTC RUU updates. You'll end up with what's called a Perfected SPL, which means you're stuck with that HTC ROM. None of the new Sense ROM's from HTC are rooted yet, which means that what you see is what you get.

The HoFo ROM is probably the best Sense ROM available and it'll run on any 32A Magic that's been rooted. And if you don't like it, you're not stuck with it like the HTC RUU updates.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] amjad_2020:
Thank you very much ^_^
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cole26:
Hmmm. Ok, everything seemed to copy and push fine, but when I rebooted, I have no keyboard at all. What is the procedure to go back to the original keyboard?
