i've been switching between Jac's hero versions and cynogen. The performance of the hero roms has increased ALOT. i'm using 64mb swap and got around 32mb free so for me it's enough.. now if the devs could only fix the lag in opening apps it perfect!
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
You haven't seen NOTHING until you flash MoDaCo 1.5.1

Seriously, the fastest thing I have ever seen... I honestly can't believe it. :eek:

If you want a video you can see it on my Youtube:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gog-MAl6a7k
[G1 Android Development] dof250:
I've watched you're video... but Jac is just as fast... its completely lag free on the home screen... only when opening apps its still laggy
[G1 Android Development] MoxFulder_CH:
especially the browser with the "retrieving sign-up details" message.

Question : I use the Wifi toggle widget, when I click on to enable the wifi, no network is found. I have to go into the Settings then press scan. The networks are then discovered. Have you the same issue/behavior ?
[G1 Android Development] dLockers:
Guys,

Quick question, probably a dumb one at that, but I haven't got the time nor patience (I sound like a spoilt child typing that, haha) to read the last 1000+ pages, and my search terms are so wide it's ridiculous(!).

I was just wondering, is it correct, that if you use the 'back' button on the phone, to get back to the home screen, TouchFlo crashes and has to restart? Because every time I do this, it just goes to 'HTC Smart mobility' and then reloads TouchFlo.

Is this just an error for myself? Or is it a known bug like the bluetooth issue and sliding the keypad down on the home screen?

Cheers.

Darren
[G1 Android Development] Kwincy:
Do you have a link to this ROM, I'd like to try it out.
[G1 Android Development] ElChouch:
I think that JacHeroski 2.1 is faster than modaco's...
[G1 Android Development] psxx:
Very Nice and very fast....

i have a problem with the G-Sensor on my 32b (sapphire) is there any fix?! i already changed the bt/wlan files.... but didnt find anything for the Sensor!
[G1 Android Development] Slinker:
cant select audio for ringtones, alarm , etc...

list doesn't show anything and i have the /media/audio/"all files here in respective folders"

any fix? i searched but didn't find it...
[G1 Android Development] johnnylicious:
thanks alot, if you can fix this, this its a winner ima start using this Mms.apk now.
[G1 Android Development] RaQHoliday:
So we're able to receive txts/mms with the patch, but there's still an issue with notifications.

That's progress if I've ever heard it =] I'll be watching very closely man... and licking my chops in anticipation of a fully functional release.
[G1 Android Development] xREVOx:
Notifications work, you just can't change the settings it is set on by default. If someone wants to send me a logcat so I can look at what's going on when they are changing settings, that will be appreciated.
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Does anyone know the exact build Where this started happening? Because maybe we can try and test every mms.apk before the build where we started missing mms and test those and maybe one of those work perfectly with the notifications.
[G1 Android Development] xREVOx:
WWE builds.
[G1 Android Development] stevemartin1991:
Wherever u gr the old mms.apk file from will you not need the odex file aswell? How can I put mms.apk on my phone through the terminal?
[G1 Android Development] halla29:
what ever happened to high quality?

I don't know if this question has been answered yet so please forgive me for asking. Has anyone found a way to include high quality with the YouTube app? If not or if so please let me know and if by any chance you happen to be reading this jac hopefully..........just hopefully u will include high quality as part of your next hero upgrade. By the way man I can't front your the best and as always. Halla. Lol
[G1 Android Development] Lakers3408:
Ok gotcha!

Did that and JUST kept your Mms.apk

No more FC .... however while on wifi I used another phone and sent myself 3 pic messages and got none.

Sent another 3 more while my phone was on 3G and got 5 out the 6 messages.
[G1 Android Development] sullitf:
I can say that SMSPop up works fine with notificatiosn. I normally turn off Messaging notifications all together and use SMSPopup instead. Didn't even realize there was a notification problem
[G1 Android Development] big nu:
Poor pic quality on mms

@ xREVOx

I finally fix my sms/mms problem thanx to your simple fix bat. I appreciate your help on this..

I was just wondering if you notice a poor quality in your picture messages my wife sent me a pic from her g1, it looks perfect on her phone but when see sent it to my g1 it turn to a blurry image(poor quality)...

I think i read about this happening to some one else on this rom just wanted to know if this is a known issue?

thanks again..
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Oh so the 2.0 builds. Ok Thanks man :D

Nd i know this is off topic but someone Posted Jac's rom on another website saying Bluetooth works :rolleyes: http://androidforums.com/updates-cupcakes/6501-rom-jachero-2-3-2-fully-optimized-htchero-port.html
[G1 Android Development] Lakers3408:
True I looked at the pictures I sent my self and they are very blurry.

Plus the fact that i didnt get any picture messages while on wifi. (this maybe a known issue)
[G1 Android Development] xREVOx:
IDK, i didn't really look into any problems w/ the JACHero1.72 Mms.apk... I made no modifications whatsoever. I can look, just haven't had the time yet.
[G1 Android Development] youngstacks74:
none of my settings stay saved.... notifications in peep.... and default app notifications

Can anything be done to the lagging when we open n close the keyboard? Just wondering...Thanx guys this a great rom.
[G1 Android Development] Chance Ill:
disregard last post. copy and push wlan.ko. works perfectly!!! :)

change to the directory you have put it, and type:

adb remount

adb push wlan.ko /system/lib/modules/wlan.ko

adb shell sync

FOR TERMINAL:

put the wlan.ko in the root of your sdcard

su

mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

cp /sdcard/wlan.ko /system/lib/modules/wlan.ko

JACHero 1.72 MMS.apk Settings Not Saving

I cannot duplicate this. Can someone with this problem tell me their exact steps when they change settings? Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] seanhassars:
this isn't specific to the new old mms.apk. it's like that on every hero build, and it's literally the only thing keeping me from switching. the amount of compression hero seems to put on pictures is insane. it'll shrink a 50kb image to 11kb, which is nice since it sends/receives it fast, but the image looks terrible. if this can be fixed, i'll be sold on hero.

for now i'm doomed to use the hero theme + beautiful widgets :(
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
I second this.. my settings save..

EDIT: Well Now it wants to change for some reason lol :p

EDIT 2: Nvm it does stay the only reason it changed was because i was connected to my comp lol i disconnected now no problems with ringtone and everything staying. And this does increase the speed dramatically for me.. no lag screen and i dont have swapper nor overclocked and im running the msg widget with this and it works perfectly great find xREVOx.
[G1 Android Development] Zarboz:
has anyone else noticed increased download speed after the cyanogen kernel was added
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
LOL. Maybe you should try flashing it cuz I used both JAC AND MoDaCo and Modaco KILLS JAC's latest... KILLS IT.

Everything that is wrong with the new Rosie MoDaCo in no way suffers from.

Look at my Drizzy video.

Look at my JAC video.

MoDaCo kills it. Responsive. Quick at opening apps. There's no contest.
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
Think?

THINK???

Seriously, have you USED MoDaCo?????

Try and slow that thing down by throwing whatever you can at it. Can't be done. Lol....

Flash MoDaCo. You will see. It's a beast. Hands down.
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
Sorry, check out the vid again. Gonna post a link in the annotations as well as the sidebar....

Prepare to be amazed. LOL
[G1 Android Development] dweller88:
So you've got a boner for another hero rom.

Do you really need ten posts on another rom's thread to let us know this?

All these roms are fast. What I'm interested in is how buggy they are and what new fixes are being implemented i.e. video recording sound, LEDs etc...
[G1 Android Development] the1wingedangel:
1.7r2 was the one where they enabled cc, but it just wasn't enough. You'd still get the HTC screen when going home from ram intensive apps. When switching to linux swap it cured this problem. So in this particular case, to answer your question, yes. This is an ongoing testing game, and not every release is going to be perfect. Problem is 90% of the people in this thread really aren't ready to be flashing in the first place. If they were, it would be more like 200 pages, not a thousand.

If you wanna talk about placebo effect, that is what most people are having every time they flash. I look over in my hero zip folder and I see 25 build versions from just JAC (and his co-builders from time to time). And that is not all of them either. He's had 30+ builds. If it were truly "WOW SO MUCH FASTER THAN THE LAST ONE" like everyone has been posting in every thread he's had, every single time there is a new release, then it would be quicker than sonic the hedgehog on a caffeine overdose. Thing is, while hero roms have definitely gotten faster over the times, I've been running them since the day haykuro released the first one, and I can tell you, that REALISTICALLY speaking, there have only really been 3 or 4 major speed increases that will effect its daily use as a rom. Most people are just full of it. Another way to look at it is take its original port speed, speed now, divide by about 35 (for the number of builds, and this would be assuming it did get faster each time) and then you'd be looking at such a minor increase, that it would be basically physically impossible for a human to notice. It just makes me laugh sometimes.

That aside, JAC, CC, haykuro, all these devs really have done a bang up job. Well done guys, and thanks for your time. I really do appreciate that I can run hero like I do now because of what you've done. :cool:
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
Okay, I'm just letting people know cuz seriously, when I was starting out, I would be here whatever forum people were telling was "the best" or "fastest" Hero rom and I would have LOVED for someone to have told me about MoDaCo from the get go...

Just cuz you're offended at people trying to help other people out. Lol... Sorry. =p

And have you tried MoDaCo???

Records sound... Has led's... And is not buggy.

Maybe you should try something out before being a jerk. =)
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
WOW. This is so so so so true!!!!

AMEN.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
The speed increases in all Hero ROMs across the board are because of me and JAC's kernel.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
For real. Whose ROM do you think Modaco is based on? This one. A lot of the Hero ROMs take JAC and Cyrowski's work and make a change here and there.

People need to quit spamming this thread with this is faster than that and whatever else. No one cares about personal opinions.
[G1 Android Development] Reignzone:
Actually, personal opinions are the basis of changes that are made to better someone's experiences with a product...in this case; ROMS.

Don't be a prick. Everyone in this forum is entitled to their own opinion which isn't something you should take personally.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I'm not being a prick. It's one thing to say what you think of the ROM and your personal experience with it. It's another thing when someone is going into a ROM thread to argue with people about why another ROM is better. It's not helping the ROM improve. It's just bloating the thread. If people want to argue about which ROM is the best start a new thread.
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
Very true.
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
I wasn't trying to argue with anybody... Sorry if it seemed that way.

And of course I want this ROM and all ROM's to improve for everyone's sake.

And now I know that its cuz of JAC and CC that MoDaCo is as fast as it is but the question I have is WHY? Why is it that none of the new stuff compares to the speed of that Rosie??

Nobody is arguing. Just trying to help people out and get some answers.

I appreciate all the dev's hard work and we owe all of this to them. I understand. =)
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I understand. You are excited about these ROMs. But the majority of the last three pages is about which is better this ROM or Modaco. People are going to give up on searching for answers to their questions when they have to read that stuff. Then they post the same question that has been answered before and the thread grows even more.

http://www.androidcentral.com/htc-hero-gets-update-improves-htc-sense

I hope to see this soon on our custom Hero Roms. :D
[G1 Android Development] the1wingedangel:
Yes, this I know. Hence your two names in the thanks. However we must also give credit to htc haha. After all, the base speed increase in rosie and widget scrolling is due to the new 2.83.xx dump.

That's not the only thing posted. Some of us are trying to have a real talk about how bfs has slowed rosie.
[G1 Android Development] akycia:
rosie may have been slowed a tad, but i believe that app response has improved drastically over earlier non-bfs builds.

OMG, that looked freakin sweet. I can't wait until Java hits JACxHEROSki. And it looked so fast, cant wait :p
[G1 Android Development] Fictionles:
57 seconds in you can see the Superuser Permissions App. Is that part of the update too ;)
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
one question: are there any ROMs that run better without compcache at all? because i was trying out cyanogen's 4.1.9.2 and it seems to lag more... and the MoDaCo Hero2 1.5.1 also seems a slight slow but it might be me on that one
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
have you tried the MoDaCo Hero2 1.5.1? you might want to...

I just noticed that my "red button" doesnt turn off the device.

When I hold down the "red button" the recent app list pops up.

Anyone else getting this?
[G1 Android Development] sunset73:
Hi,

After i did all this, I still can't load up the setup screen.

it loads up, then get stuck at HTC Screen (initially can see the logo "HTC" flashing, as if its loading). After a while, it stops and a notification bar on top appears, with time, battery power, and signal.

Next, Dialer storage and google maps force close.

And i am stuck forever..

Need serious assistance on this..
[G1 Android Development] palosjr:
dude, pay attention, it comes with java, and if yours didnt, you can install it still. just do a search in apps and games on here.

Wifi Sleep policy not locking

I'm on Jacski's 2.1 and really like it. 96 swap size haven't had any problems at all. except for the known contact search FC, all is good. I just have one problem that is really bugging me. My Wi-Fi sleep policy can't seem to lock. It stays on for a while but it will always eventually revert back to turning off when the screen turns off. I've tried changing the sleep policy (settings->wireless controls ->wi-fi settings ->menu button ->advanced -> wi-fi sleep policy (select never) -> menu button -> save) but no luck. I also tried the wifi lock apps. I even have wisyncplus but nothing works.

I was wondering if anyone can also check this for me by enabling it on their device so i can rule out whether its the rom or an app that's causing this. thanks!

Rio
[G1 Android Development] palosjr:
so cyanogen got the new market up and running in his newest build.... anyone up for bringing it to hero? i tried but kept getting FC everytime it started... i messed with everything, XML, files, you name it... someone that knows XML better should try it!
[G1 Android Development] twflys:
please someone help...

alright, here i am all the way across the country and tried to upgrade to 2.1... just stops loading, i have tried everything; wipe, flash format ext2- etc

nothing is getting this thing to work, i cannot even roll back to 1.8

I just keep getting stuck at the HTC screen, no more boot loop- but it never gets past the HTC screen.

Thanks,

how to do a2sd with jacheroskiv2.1. i have apps and wen i flashed from 2.0 to 2.1 i had to reinstall all my apps. however, i just had to go to download in market and all my apps are there just not installed.
[G1 Android Development] saffad:
Just wanted to share a problem i had few days ago

When pressing the Menu button, there is a delay of few seconds to wake the screen up. I went to screen timeout n changed it to 15 secs which actually solved this problem, strangely.

After rebooting the phone the problem appears to have come back. And now, even changing the screen timeout settings doesnt 'fix' anything. Is there anyway to fix this? If problem keeps occuring i will have to flash cyanogens ROM, its just not usable at this moment.
[G1 Android Development] Pepe101:
noone has came up with a solution on fixing the text notification problem and the problem of sendin texts over every time u reboot ur phone???

Thanks to the Devs

What up everyone. Been followin xda since I got my G1 in Feb. Just never needed to ask any questions (I'm pretty decent @ using search :D), anyway I really wanted to thank ALL the devs for real, ya'll really make it happen for us. And to all of you posting negative s@!t, chill, the 'little spat' was like 2 weeks ago and people are still trying to start stuff. Move on and let the Devs work. :mad:

Sorry for the rant, my first post was and still is to thank the Devs.

So, CC, JAC, TwistedU, Drizzy, Cyanogen, JF, TheDude, and most importantly Haykuro. Theres tons more and thanks to all of you if I did not mention you. Thank you sincerely for all you do. You guys make owning a G1 really cool, Keep it Up :)

P.S. I've been runnin JACxHeroSki 1.6a since it came out and that IMO is the fastest 'stable' hero now. Not that any Hero Rom is stable, but everything works for me. No problems with SMS, GPS, WiFi, Maps, Music, Pandora, Co-Pilot, Peep, etc....the only thing I have not really tested is MMS (I just don't use it that much). I hope this helps some of you looking for a solid Hero build. But in no way should you just flash that one, these devs depend on people to report bugs, how do you think they keep making these roms better :confused:, so YOU OWE IT TO THEM to flash a new rom, even if for only a few hours, to do YOUR part in advancing the Hero Roms.

Anyway Thanks again to all of the Devs, and everyone else that helps people out on these forums, you guys deserve some recognition as well, so for everyones sake, please try to search before you barrage a thread with questions that can be answered by reading the OP.

P.P.S. I also want everyone to know I'm not trying to single anyone out, I include myself in the group that owes it to the devs to report bugs, thats another reason why I joined the forums;)
[G1 Android Development] Docavelli:
A2SD is done automaticly (IN THE OP). Once you get your apps loaded back, reboot and it will move them.
[G1 Android Development] xyrcncp:
I'm using Touchpal for now, although I have a love/hate relationship with it. I prefer the OEM text prediction and some of the layout of the keyboard over Touchpal's, but right now that's the "solution".

I tried Handcent SMS and it worked perfectly, but it killed ALL of my notifications (Mail, SMS, Calendar, SD card, etc). It would only allow vibrate, but everything else worked.

As for texts sending themselves over after reboot...I have not had that issue.
[G1 Android Development] twflys:
It Worked!

So, I stopped following the Hero ROM development months ago, when it became clear to me that Bluetooth would not be working anytime soon. I thought I'd just check in to see if any progress had been made, and I can't seem to locate anything substantive in the searches. Can anyone give me a quick update on how close the bugs are to being worked out -- Bluetooth and LEDs? Or has everyone given up completely?

IMO JACxHEROSki-v1.8

Iv tried other roms DDR had a few bugs and so does JACxHEROSki-v2.0 I had a few auto reboots and load screens with 2.0, the roms that are stable for me are Hero2 1.5.1 and JACxHEROSki-v1.8 which im using now, no load screens no auto reboots sms and gps no problems contact search works, only the obvious dont work eg BT MT, class2 SD 8GB and its still fast.

Hey, It FINALLY WORKED !

What I did was:

1. Changed down from a 8GB KINGSTON sdhc class 4 microsd to 2GB KINGSTON normal microsd.

2. Re-partition new micro-sd.

3. Reboot, screen either lags or hang at "T-Mobile G1" Screen.

4. Got frustrated

5. Took out microsd, put the hero rom in, renamed to update.zip

6. Did a ALT + W

7. Fixed ext2 partition

8. Flashed ROM

And for the first time in my life, felt hopeful once again (When the setup screen came smiling to me)

donut

the 1.6 sdk has been released and im curious to know whether the donut update will be included in future hero roms??
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
SDK isn't donut. Nonetheless, hopefully soon.
[G1 Android Development] vr24:
While 1.5.1 is solid, and I'll be using it until bluetooth/led's work. I can say that I have the same FC's as with 1.7r2 - and roughly the same speed. I just won't switch back to 1.7r2 simply because there is no difference.

I don't see the point in you wasting time with 1.5.1 JAC.... It's the same damn thing as 1.7r2 that you have already released.
