I'll try it, can't do it right now, cause I had the brilliant idea of applying the invisible shield in the afternoon, and now I can't touch the phone :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Fatal1ty2787:
Swapper is not working on Magic...

you can eneble or disable it just editing that file, change the last line, it's a number that it refers to swappiness, set it to 0 to make it don't swap, set it to a range from 10(recommended) to 60 (you can go up to 100, but I don't suggest it at all!!) the higher the number is, and the more it swaps!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
Please let me/us know how the Invisible Shield works out. I have it for my iPod and love it but I am worried about how it will mess with the feel of the touchscreen. It looks like itll be a ***** to put on, too.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] timmy1980:
Oh no! hope it's not ruined :( No worries amigo, like I said, i'm really not here with my hands out saying "please sir can I have some more"!!!

If you had a chance to look at it that would be amazing.

Thank you for all you have done already :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Fatal1ty2787:
it's not ruined, it just need to dry up for some hours....I ordered the screen protection, not the full body coverage....and it was easy to install... :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kingchris:
look at this link.

i think this is the best explanation ;)

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hughyb:
similar experiences as other initially but after 2 reboots its the best yet, i have taken off a couple of the widgets due to my voda-frickin-fone magic not being as beefy as its canadian, swedish and wherever else cousins. but looking good.

will keep playing
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
Awesome. Lemme know how it feels. A lamp might help it dry up faster.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rommelin:
Yes, it is for sweeterhome. I didn't understand that it shouldn't be a theme for sweeterhome, ahome, etc

;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] skittleguy:
Okay legitimate question time. If we were going to go about fixing this Bluetooth issue, what would be the best course of action? I was thinking of maybe porting the bluetooth related .so files from a rom where they work (like the Rogers) but I think that actually led to a boot loop when I tried it.

Thoughts? Suggestions? Ideas? Things I can try?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fridlack:
Finaly i can manage the swap file from swapper, i put a 0 on the txt file (on both numbers) on sdcard, restart untill adb shell free shows 0 swaps, then y grab the parch that works on v1.2 that enable swaper and install it and run it.... now i have swaper enabled, can turn it on or off without edit any txt :)

If anyone wanna try, here is the link to the patch

Thanks kingchris for this patch!

And thanks again to fatality for this great rom!

I can't believe am i so unlucky cause i've still got problems when trying to make a call.the phone crashes and i'm completely lost...

I used to install phonebook or star contact to be able to do a call,but with version 1.3 they both crash...

Anybody have some ideas?

No call and no contacts avaiable...****!

Wow, looks pretty sleek - still a bit buggy I think but definitely a looker.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Tuborgmann:
Im getting that error too, any update to that ROM?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
Here is the Rogers 1.3 update:

-fixed the Talk.apk error

-there is no swapping, as this slows down the Rogers phones

http://www.mediafire.com/?nxz2numidyg
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] avigan:
Which rom is this? I could probably fix it for you
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Tuborgmann:
The one in the post just above you, lol :) seems it got fixed.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Fatal1ty2787:
I've no clue on it... it's pretty wierd.... you had it with all the release?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] macacomachec:
Yes since the first posted on androidiani!!ustiasa!

I'm not as skilled as you,now i'm gonna try yo flash the roger one and then load wlan ko and boot img.

I also tried rogers and superhero and no errors whit them.bo!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kingchris:
will someone of you do a test for me?

i created a bat-File for helpin on updates.

the idea behind.

create a simple batch that can do this

- push a various *.zip-File in the Folder to /sdcard/update.zip

- backup all your installed apps from /data/app into a folder on your harddisk

- restart your phone in recoverymode

- wait till u wipe and Apply the update

- re-insall the backuped apps.

if it realy works like i think. i hope this will be helpfull on updates

(because you never have to install all the apps by hand)

--edit--

found an error

fixed
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] skittleguy:
Question for the people having issues with bugs and force-closes: are you wiping your data before you flash? I've had others complain about how slow and buggy the Hero port is, but they changed their tune once they reflashed after wiping.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
As far as the Bluetooth is concerned, do you think it might be due to incorrectly set permissions in the bluetooth and net_bt_admin group?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] LadFromWales85:
People keep saying "Damn Vodafone" etc about the 192MB ram, but isn't it all 'with Google' Magics that have only 192MB ram, including the Ion?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] macacomachec:
i alwais wipe before flashing any rom..:confused:i hope is only bad luck:D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Fatal1ty2787:
I read devs complaining about something in the btips on init.rc in the dream section you should look there :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
Well I removed btips from the init.rc, and the BT wouldn't turn on at all. That part wasn't there in the Rogers init.rc so I thought it would work, guess not.

Could i push dialer or contacts of previous rom via adb?Any tips about witch files pick?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Fatal1ty2787:
You sure that you have wiped?

btw the file you wanna look for is HTC_CIME.apk

Hi Fatal1ty2787,

Thanks a lot for posting this new ROM in tinyurl.

Thanks so much.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:
Dam almost 20 pages in one day, took me a bit to catch up.

Fatal1ty2787@ thanks for for 1.3 ;]

hotweiss@ thanks for the rogers version, gonna test it in a bit :D

Are you sure its taking that much? because hero has the same ram as the non vodafone magics so in theory they should be able to give the same performance.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Fatal1ty2787:
that's the value of the swappiness, it tells you how frequent the system is going to swap
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kingchris:
push :)

will someone pls test
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Hi Fatal1ty2787,

first thanks alot for v1.3.

But i have little problem.

I can't receive sms! :confused: What can i do?

Regards
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fridlack:
I will try it tomorrow morning :) if it works would be great!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kingchris:
thanks. i hope it will work complete. i testet the parts but i dont really know if it works as a complete step (sorry for bad english i know the words but i dont know how to put it in a complete sentence :D)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Fatal1ty2787:
do like I do, sort them randomly!!! ahahah j/k
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hofbert:
am wondering if i missed it, but there is no obvious reason why the build is not overclocked to 528Mhz?

i mean i can easily install the setcpu apk, but if there are some issues with overclocking then i might reconsider...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kingchris:
528Mhz is set as default by the rom on installation. fatalaty has patched this into the init.rc by installing the rom

lol randomly sorting.. (the last time i thougt, i will sort the words alphabetic, but its too much work ^^)

i reflashed the rom now 5-7 times and after a time i thougt it will be a good idee to have a script which installs all the programms after flashing.

if it works i hope it will be used here.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hofbert:
i have the rovers version of it installed from hotweiss's earlier post. if i check in a terminal emulator with

cat /proc/cpuinfo

i see that it is still set to 384Mhz. i see it as well if install setcpu and i can then put it to 528Mhz. just wondered if there are some issues with it (like with the swapping slowing down the roger phones)...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Fatal1ty2787:
This ROM is already overclocked to 528MHz so you don't need to use external apps to do that...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] blunden:
Is overclocking really necessary if running the standard Home screen? Where is the init.rc located when installed? I thought I might change it back then. :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
I think the focus has been lost here. We all want a nice clean Rom that will have most of the features of the hero build. As they are to release versions for our phones, we should focus on trying to make our original roms better by adding multitouch, flash, removing restrictions. There should be separate post for pvt a and b phones to avoid confusion and less people risking flashing incompatible roms on there $600 phones. Let's find ways to make the base of our devices better. What would we be focused on if this Rom wasn't around? Great work, I'm loving it. Keep it up guys.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
I could live with build 1.2 if the dam Bluetooth issue could be resolved. It connects but no sound. Still very impressed by the amazing work and effort here. Very!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:
Not to be rude but you should speak for yourself. some of us(me) enjoy the hero rom and don't need anything else, i have everything that i need working fine. And as far as making a custom rom and adding different features from different roms to it such as multi touch and flash would be 2x harder than what are people doing right now with the hero rom which is customizing it.

as far as the 32A vs 32b issue i completely agree, 95% of posts here are about the 32B.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Fatal1ty2787:
Actually it's not risky to flash the wrong ROM it just won't work wifi...

I guess that the main reason of this thread should be trying to make the rom more usable by optimizing it, and that's the same for rogers and vodafone phone...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
I would test it but I don't run Windows. I took a look at the code thinking that I would rewrite it for my use in Ubuntu but the app part confused me. Maybe someone who actually knows what they are doing can do one for Unix.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
Don't see it in that way. I like this ROM aswell. It's great. Just feel the topic has gone of base, that's all. But I'm not trying to offend anyone. This Rom is great, trust me.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
I will accept what you can give as I can't do as you. Appreciate your time and effort. Just wish the Bluetooth issue was resolved. Will try your new 1.3 version shortly. That guy never mention the Rom he was getting good Bluetooth reception on was , did he?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kingchris:
tu use it with ubuntu u must rewrite it as a sh script (i think)

this is written as a command scrit for windos.

unter ubuntu i dont know how to write. (i use ubuntu bus as a "normal" user not as a linux-man ^^ )

the app part is the part for backup the apps form /data/app and after update to re-install
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] skittleguy:
Read this thread:

It's a work in progress. This is not a issue that can be solved overnight. There is more involved that would you think, since the specifics of what is involved are different and people need to sleep at least a few hours a night.

Anybody tried tethering on any of these ROM's yet? I tried WiFi tether, computer found my phone, connected but couldn't get onto the net.

I may need some help from a smarter Ubuntu user with the for loop used to copy the apps back.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Gimpeh:
How come the CPU has been set to 528mhz? True throttling will save battery life but wouldnt running at a constant max 528mhz nullify any power that would be saved from throttling?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
Never asked for a miracle. As I said, ill take what I can get. It's funny that you speak in that manner when you just asked the same ? today and got directed to the link you sent me. LOL. And I'm now reminded why I never liked to post. Anyways thanks for your help earlier.

all credit so to the developer of command.com and bash :P

ps: i use google and find something like this

but i dont know if it is right
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:
stock cpu speed for 32A and 32B is 528mhz.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Gimpeh:
The G1 would Idle at I believe 228mhz and throttle up and down based on requirements. So what your saying is that the CPU in the Magic stays at a constant 528mhz? Idle or otherwise?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Gimpeh:
Also, How is the speed of this rom compared to a normal ION rom?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kingchris:
if u disable Touchflo the speed is compared 50:50 % to the other roms.

with the swap and the 528Mhz + Touchflow the speed is good enough to use. i will never go back to the "boring" normal android ;) (45:55 %)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :

download the original hero rom and type

extract

PCSCII.apk and PCSCII.odex from /system/app/

and then

adb push PCSCII.akp /system/app/PCSCII.akp

adb push PCSCII.odex /system/app/PCSCII.odex

then the sync will be there (but imho i think the sync is not realy needed)

I have a noob question, Can you install the Hero Rom without rooting?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] nanoflower:
First of all I'd like to say that I'm truely impressed with this project. A lot of hours has been put into this ROM and and the porting time has been close to light speed.

I would like to know If it has been considered to have the applications, wallpapers, ringtones and so on made available in a downloadable zip file.

Personally I like my ROM's as close to stock as possible, but hey that's just me.

- Keep up the good work
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
That looks great...so much clearer than Windows (at least to me). Hopefully I can get that script wrapped up tomorrow...I havent had a lot of time to spend on it.

In your .bat you have

adb shell reboot recovery

but when I did that it booted my phone to the exclamation sign with the phone beside it. I assume that we differ in how we have our phones set up. When I flashed the 1.2 (i think) hero ROM that I am running now I did a

fastboot boot recovery-RAv1.0H.img

Is there a better way to do it?

Thanks so much again, everyone. Amazing community.

There are numerous ports for the HTC branded one, if a rom is for these versions it works for the HTC branded one: Rogers, TIM, PVT32A, HK

So if you find one that is supposed to work for either os these it will work for yours.
