Why is it that Power Manager Pro never works anymore? :( Every other app works perfectly, yet for whatever reason Power Manager Pro is now useless as it can't apply profiles anymore.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] AltDimension:
For all the Sense ROM's I've tried, Power Manager Pro doesn't work. Been meaning to try the rooted version of it to see if it works but I haven't got around to it.

Having an issue in 3.0.6 and now 3.0.7. I am pretty sure many on here have had this issue. When I get a call or I am placing a call, when the other party answers and there is that short vibration burst, the phone hangs and continues to vibrate. The interesting thing I noticed today is that it only happened when I was on Edge service. When I had HSPA or 3G, it did not do this. I have not wiped since 3.0.0. Do you think a wipe will cure this? Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dr4stic:
I'd just like to thank Paul for a great release!

I'm on a driving trip across the US and don't have the headphone adapter for my phone to plug into my rental's aux jack. My rental does however have bluetooth, so I was very happy to switch to 3.0.6.

Just wanted to mention some issues. The music seems to be buffered (not a big deal), but occassionally stutters and will speed up and slow down seemingly at will. After about 30 minutes or so the music will stop and I have to stop playback long enough for the connection to go unused (about 5-10 seconds) before I can resume playback.

Anyone else noticing these issues?

Where could I find this rooted version? I bought app in the market so I feel angry knowing that I can't even use an app that I legitimately paid for...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] pcm2a:
Rom works fantastic. I was hoping to leave this rom on there when I sell my phone (getting the Droid) but I'm afraid the default Chinese junk will turn my buyers away. Is there a way to strip out the Chinese and make it English only everything?

It's ok if there is isn't I can just slap on one of the other choices.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] radonsg:
backup your apps on 3.05 using some backup sfw like backup for root, my backup pro. Then later when upgrade, restore it back.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ichijin:
I loved 3.0.6 since there was absolutely no keyboard lag, but with 3.0.7 there was a little more, but a lot less than ones before 3.0.6. I also found that in 3.0.7 that the calendar is a little slower when moving between days in the time view and the calendar actually FC'ed once, but I can't repeat the circumstances.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] darvo:
Great :rolleyes: thanks for these instruction but I know what permissions and root user are. I've been using Linux for a few years now so I'm ok on that. For your information, type su in terminal and you will have root permissions...

$ su
# whoami
whoami: unknown uid 0

uid 0 is root

What I'm trying to say it that on a rooted ROM yout should be able to do from within the ROM what you can do from adb. I have no computer as I had mine stolen 2 months ago. So I have no adb neither.

Did you try to copy an .apk to /system/data from terminal, using su of course? Give it a try! On my side it doesn't work and I'm sure it works with MyHero...

For some reason, I am able to delete files to /system/data with Root Explorer but I can't copy any files to the same destination. It doesn't make sense!!!

Oh yeah... and there is an SuperUser whitelist app rom market included in pretty much every rooted ROMs, but it won't install on this ROM. Is this a feature or what?

I'm just thinking about that now... every root apps runs without some sort of protection. Isn't it unsafe to let apps having root permissions without a whitelist with on screen consentment? Think about it! ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] midtoad:
no luck. Even after typing 'su', and seeing the prompt change to #, when I type 'whoami' I'm still not root. Hence, I am unable to put anything into /system. And /system/data appears to not exist.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zeotrope:
I just did a wipe and then flash of 3.0.7 and still no luck

it works with email and everything else, and the trackball lights up... but no LED notification

could this be because im using smsfixtimes?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] 3junior:
never mind
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] darvo:
Sorry but you are totally wrong. It does have root permissions. uid 0 IS root.

Try that:

$ whoami
whoami: unknown uid 10049
$ su
# whoami
whoami: unknown uid 0
# cd /system/app
# ls HtcFootprints*
HtcFootprints.apk HtcFootprintsWidget.apk
HtcFootprints.odex HtcFootprintsWidget.odex
# rm HtcFootprints*
# ls HtcFootprints*
ls: HtcFootprints*: No such file or directory
# cp /sdcard/download/HTC_IME.apk ./
cp: cannot remove './HTC_IME.apk': No such file or directory

You see?

EDIT: Just found out that it works with Better Terminal emulator Pro and "ash" but not regular "sh". :)

$ su
# cd /system/app
# cp /sdcard/download/HTC_IME.apk ./
# ls HTC_IME.apk
HTC_IME.apk

Youtube via wifi

Dont knwo if this has happened to anyone. I tried watching a vid via wifi on youtube (regular net no application) and it tells me my version of flash player is old? any ideas or is it just me (i also took mobile view off in the browser)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xiutian:
Because it's been answered so many times all over the forum. Just extract the apk from another rom and install it to your phone using adb.

Please learn how to use the forum search function.

Test Report of v3.0.7

Wipe -> 3.0.6 -> 3.0.7

Everything run perfect!

1. BT ASDP: OK

2. BT Phone: OK

3. GPS and A-GPS: Both OK (Testing by GPS Status, Here I am, Gmap)

4. Wifi: OK, testing to set up all account and sync all data with google.

5. Ringtone: No Delay and lag (tested on MP3 Ringtone only)

6. Market: Update Notification Works.

7. No HTC Sync (I don't need, push if u need or update from 3.0.5)

8. App2SD(vFat) works fine, all apps OK.

9. edit: LED Signal: Normal on charge but not shinning when new notification come.

Issues:

1. The phone won't sleep - Settings -> About Phone -> Status -> scroll to the bottom of the list, Awake time is always 100%. That means the system turn screen off only, not really sleep. The battery will last shorter time. I remember that the last time i check this was v3.0.3, Awake time is not 100%. edit: if a BT device connected, the phone will keep awake. I'd tested keeping BT on but no devices connected, the Awake time is stopped.

2. HTC Launcher force to close 1 time after i change the local chinese -> english -> chinese. I think this is a special case.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fezza:
I have the same issue, i wonder if its the 2005 eng spl that I have installed?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I changed my smstime settings from 3.0.7 but after a while, the time goes back to the -5 hours..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mstolpner:
It seems that battery life is much better with 3.07. Or is it just my imagination?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
I'm getting the same issue... It seems like that app needs more work...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
1) I just checked mine, and the awake time is 17%. Have you noticed that your battery life has decreased?

I will try a possible fix in the next release.

PS-I will try a new kernel tomorrow that will automatically downclock to 128 MHz when the screen is off...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zeotrope:
the battery has always been really good on this rom for me, except this latest version.

my only 2 issues are battery time and the messaging LED notification
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
I think you need a wipe to fix the battery issue, as I have no problem. LED notification might be fixed in the next version...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ma678:
Awake time on my phone is 44%. Is it too high? thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] djs1985:
I dont know if this is a rom or network problem but since flashing to 3.0.6 and 3.0.7 Nobody i send texts to is receiving them and also when people call me and I dont answer its not showing a missed call just shows a voice mail? Anyone else getting this or is this a network problem. I am running rogers wireless.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] DrSpaceman:
weird, i had an issue with 3.0.6 only some of my texts were getting through, but both texts i've sent since upgrading to 3.0.7 have gone through.

Edit: scratch that, only one of them went through. I think I'm going to wipe and go straight to 3.0.7 and see if that fixes it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
I am eagerly awaiting the Rogers Sense release... hopefully it will have all of these little bugs fixed.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ma678:
I'm afraid Rogers is waiting you to fix all bugs.:D

I don't know why I got three identical SMSes every time.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] DrSpaceman:
Do you have three SMS apps installed? When I first installed chomp, I used to get two notifications - until I disabled the notifications in the default android messaging app.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xiutian:
Hotweiss, thanks for the new rom update. Seems to have resolved all my Market problems (had gotten it to work before this but now all of my paid apps are showing). Only thing unresolved for me is MMS. My provider doesn't seem to like Sense UI much, can't get it to work no matter which permutation of the settings I try. So far, the ringtone lag problem hasn't appeared as well.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mpwarner:
3.0.7 is working fine for me. For those having issues with the phone not sleeping, maby its an app you have installed? My awake time is at 9% and battery life has been great. I've been updating without a wipe since 3.0.3.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] seto_613:
Paul, thanks for checking that.

when BT devices connected to the phone, or usb plug and connected to PC, the phone will keep awake, and don't sleep(only screen off). At this moment, battery gone very fast.

I think this is HTC bug, or android bug...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dawiebe:
I found that my text goes through if I text to "778XXXX", but does not go through if I text to "+1778XXXX". (778 being the area code)

Installed HoFo 3.0.6 the day before yesterday and just recently updated to 3.0.7 and it works flawlessly *knock on wood* :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] terryleung:
hi all

I just flash 3.0.7 and everything work great

Here I have a problem(may be just related to sense but not hofo itself)

when I use set wallpaper function in the rom, the resolution of the picture is just low(at least not as clear compared with the old 2.X.X version of hofo without sense UI)

Then I downloaded the AndroLib Wallpapers and set wallpaper via this software. it is a lot more clear!!!

(The wallpaper I used in hofo is very sharp I can even notice some large pixel in the 3.0.7 with the same wallpaper)

The only problem left is about the lockscreen , which i cannot set via other software

Anyone have solution?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] terryleung:
seems I found a bug

when I want to add a new wallpaper for the lockscreen

i copy the file to sd card (in the folder where i have 19 other wallpaper)and try to set it as my wallpaper

It just doesnt appear in the photobook(I hope this name is right as i am using chinese version)

then I try to delete all the wallpaper I have in the same folder

the photobook doesnt reload(It still show I have the previous 19 wallpaper but not display them. because I have already deleted them)

It seems that it is not possible to add new wallpaper to the photobook(maybe a reboot should fix this?) and hence i can set my own lockscreen wallpaper?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] d4ftpuNK:
What I did was put the picture into the camera directory on the sd card. i believe the dir is DCIM\camera

Version 3.0.8

Taking down, the scaling is causing compatibility issues...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] DrSpaceman:
I wiped and installed 3.0.7 and it looks like my texts are being sent now.

However, I have noticed that switching from portrait to landscape is significantly slower than earlier 3.0.x versions - particularly when the keyboard is open. Easily 2 or 3 times slower.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Donkey3000:
I don't want to wipe (I did prior to 3.0.3, now on 3.0.6 going to 3.0.8), but want to remove htc sync. I've gone through the APK's looking for a name that might match using adb shell [COMMAND] ..., but I'm not sure which one to remove. I have no use for it as my OS is opensuse.

Does anybody have uninstall instructions for htc sync (listed PC Synchronization when killing it via advanced task manager app).

Thanks in advance.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] seto_613:
Test Report of v3.0.8

Update road: Wipe -> 3.0.6 -> 3.0.7 -> 3.0.8

update successfully.

1. BT ASDP: OK

2. BT Phone: OK

3. GPS and A-GPS: Both OK (Testing by GPS Status, Here I am, Gmap)

4. Wifi: OK

5. Ringtone: No Delay and lag (tested on MP3 Ringtone only)

6. Market: Ok

7. No HTC Sync (I don't need, push if u need or update from 3.0.5)

8. App2SD(vFat) works fine, all apps OK.

9. LED Signal: OK (shinning green led when new email come)

Issue:

1. Hanged once when dailing, calibation non-stop once(cut the phone when connected calibating). Both not happen again after reboot, so this may be a special case.

2. edit: CPU clock down to 128 when screen off, but not enough power to run music player with BT headset. It's better set it at least 285 (I did a test before by using Overclock Widget).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] seto_613:
I think v3.0.5 & v3.0.6 if a good beginning because v3.0.0 - v3.0.4 had some bugs on directly flashing rom.

So, wipe and flash v3.0.5 for HTC Sync, then directly update latest rom.

Or, wipe and flash v3.0.6 for no HTC Sync, then directly update latest rom.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
Thanks for the feedback...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] djs1985:
I haven't upgraded yet but do you think 128mhz is enough to run wifi tethering? That is a feature I use quite often

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cndnlink:
Manage Applications

Is it me or does this happen for everyone.

On 3.08 was happening on .06 and .07, everytime I go to manage apllications it tries to calculate the space of the apps and then it Force Close on me.

Has any one else had this happen?

Cheers
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
Doesn't happen to me, I just uninstalled smsfixtimes.

PS-I am now waiting for Android 2.0. Sense has too many little issues...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mizunox:
Me too.. mine are off by 5 hours, but we can use SMSFixTimes from the application list to correct this.

I haven't replaced my ROM since a MyHero ROM 2 or 3 months ago.. I'm loving the speed of this.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cndnlink:
Hummm Ok, I might try a wipe and put the newest version back on. Will let you know. Maybe it is a specfic app I have that is causing the issue.

Also any idea when we'll get the new and imporved Market??

Cheers
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] seto_613:

Cpu Speed

I have the same issue with BT and cpu speed at 128mhz when screen is off... can't listen to music.. its lagging...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zghansar:
confused

I updated my phone with this version it still read as firmware 1.5

Is this not 1.6?

Is this the SenseUI interface of Hero?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Higgins12:
The ROM acts very strange to me :-( first of all i'm unable to access any Websites with the Browser (timeout) but anything else like Facebook , Weather and all what needs Internet Access works fine.

Other Thing is i removed Twitter, Plurk and Stocks yesterday as i always do cause no need for it. After a reboot the ROM became sluggish and the Keyboard very laggy. After 3 more Reboots it was bit faster but keyboard still very laggy. Don't knowwhere could be the Problem.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xiutian:
For those asking again and again without bothering to read/search, the Magic Sense UI rom is based on cupcake (1.5) not Donut (1.6).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Taknarosh:
Try a wipe a guess?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bruor:
SWEEET!!!

Do you mean stock 2.0? or an HTC 2.0 with or without Sense? (something like what we had before with an enhanced dialer etc.) I don't think I've heard of an upcoming HTC release that doesn't include sense...?

if you are going stock are you thinking something like a solid (your kernel) 32a version of cyanogenmod?

I really like the twitter app and some of the widgets that sense has under it's hood, but I think the raw functionality of 2.0 will blow away the hacked sense support for facebook sync and the HTC activesync implementation (I'm hoping 2.0 does mail and calendar!)

One of the biggest annoyances I have with sense ui is the fact that I can't send a contact to anyone anymore. Under the old UI I could long press on someone and send their details as an SMS message. It would be ideal if I could email contacts but I can't even find an APP to do that. Under sense a contact card is generated and attached to an MMS message. if you try to open the vcard on your own device it tells you the format is bad!!! not to mention that their contact card section for your info is pretty much useless, you can't even generate a QRcode from it...

Another annoyance is that while you have a widget that shows you your starred contacts, it forces you to set an action for them. If I could set "show details" (like you can for a desktop contact shortcut) then this would be fine, but it's annoying that it forces you to always do the default for the contact, otherwise you have to open your "people"

While I really like the quick search function of the htc dialer, I'm sure that I'll be able to live without it if it means fixes to the other annoyances.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ct809:
i just found out a bug, not sure if its been mentioned in the previous 186 pages, but i'm trying to add a 2nd phone number onto a contact on my list, and it never works. I can add it in, click 'save', exit, then once i reopen it the contact wont update at all.

can anyone else test this out? thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] seto_613:
Tested, I can add 2nd,3rd...phone number.

If u r talking about htc sense's contact widget, pressing photo for default action, pressing on name for open that contact(more action can be chose).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] seto_613:
about cpu clock on screen off, 285 may be little laggy for music player with BT headset, 384 is best. Screen on -> full speed and Screen off -> 384(or can tried 128 to 384), this is my old setting of Overclock widget(not work on sense rom).

Hope this helps you, Paul.

Thanks for trying to help me out but I'm giving up with this ROM. I really appreciate the dev's work but it's still too buggy for me. I had several weird issues like the phone starting to vibrate continiously for no reason, the phone suddenly rebooting to FASTBOOT, doesn't shut down but reboots when battery reaches 0%... I'm using eViL SenSe and it works pretty good until now.

Horrible Bug

Hello...

I got this rom yday.. its pretty gud and very stable... I keep having one bug though... whenever I recieve a text msg ... the time on it is 5 hrs before than its suppposed to be... that is kind of wierd...

Also after leaving the phone for a night when i woke up in the morning I cant seem to send any texts at all...

i have no idea how to fix this...

any comments

plz and thank u

Dan
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
Dan, please make sure you search before posting... This has been answered countless times on this forum.

You'll need to use an app called SmsFixTimes.

Change the SMS messages to +5 and tap the Back button in the app.

Should work then.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bruor:
Thanks for that, given the size of the icons, that is an easy one to miss...

However, it would be best if I could specify "view contact" as an action. If you add a contact shortcut to your homescreen, it allows you to select this as an option.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] midtoad:
Some people have reported that if you use the notation +14035551212 your texts will not be sent (and I've experienced this) but if you send them in the notation 4035551212 they will get through (and that works for me).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] danial.aw:
hey i tried both notations... i have no idea wats up... sms were working fine before going to sleep ... now they wont at all...

I tried both with 1+ and without... neither seem to work...
