LOL, that is true. :cool:
[G1 Android Development] tee aiy emm:
Can someone inform me on the advantages and disadvantages of using a larger swap partition on this rom with only linux-swap enabled. For example a 64mb vs 32mb partition.

:confused:
[G1 Android Development] trill12:
Are the maps working?
[G1 Android Development] palosjr:
if you get stuck at the HTC screen press home or menu. sometimes this happens on my G1, pressing the buttons sometimes wakes the phone back up. also, try calling your phone, you will most likely get the answer/decline screen and once you do one of those the setup should resume, it has helped me before
[G1 Android Development] frawan:
thank you so much this actually helped

sorry if I posted in the wrong forum:confused:
[G1 Android Development] ~~Tito~~:
Maps has allways worked :confused:.
[G1 Android Development] trill12:
Maps never worked for me.

need sd help here

How do I fix sd card removed....4 gig class 6...partitioned with 512 ext4....64mb Linux swap...reformated...wiped ....flashed....everything seems to work well but that card...and only on this build. Checked with others and it works fine....what am I doing wrong.
[G1 Android Development] TheInfekted:
not really as my fone muffs up everytime a new rom comes out itll reboot and nothing will work aqnd i just wind uo fixing it with the new rom by removing the app_s and wiping never really had to wipe and flash a new rom unless my g1 turns off cuz ill be mad cuz i cant listen to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cE0NWR-pV10

Software keyboard issue

Okay, I've been reading through the posts but haven't come across this problem. I'm hoping there is and easy fix that I've just overlooked. I went into settings and unchecked the virtual keyboard. Closed setting...all good. I went back to recheck the option but everytime I select "Locale and Text" from the settings menu it immediately fc's. It doesn't do this with any other section.

I have tried rebooting, fix permissions and clearing the swap. I also tried reset and clear data. The only thing I haven't done is re-install the entire update. Does anyone have an idea before I go that far?

Thanks!

(and no...don't ask why I didn't leave well enough alone, LOL ;) )
[G1 Android Development] ~~Tito~~:
You have to wipe when going from full release to full release, also you can always back up.
[G1 Android Development] palosjr:
ok same thing happened to me. just reboot into recovery and flash again. when it boots back up skip the keyboard setup. you will be good to go. if you havent gotten it all setup yet, just wipe and reflash. no kidding, i had to do the same thing yesterday
[G1 Android Development] AGunz82:
This is the only Hero rom that has given me problems. Messaging force close, APN gives me force close. No service and I can't even get into wireless settings.
[G1 Android Development] ~~Tito~~:
After running 96mb swap, its even faster :D.
[G1 Android Development] PsychoKilla666:
After having to redo my partitions to install 2.0 everything works good and fast, HOWEVER, After about half a day of use I get a TouchFLO FC that Freezes the phone, I never had reboot problems and was wondering if the TouchFLO FC had been addressed in 2.1 or is it occuring with very few phones and we don't know the cause?

UPDATE - I just encountered the TouchFLO FC again and this time I FC it instead of waiting, after a while of reloading the phone returned to normal state and REBOOTED about 5 minutes later, it seems these issues are related
[G1 Android Development] n1ghtl1fe:
yea ive been getting touchflo FC's for past few hours. on 2.1
[G1 Android Development] dills84:
keep getting HTC loading screens on MT3G. Even after doing light duty tasks like calculator, picture viewing, ect...

Can someone tell me their user.conf settings on their MT3G that works best? I understand everyone gets loading screens. But having them pop up every 2 seconds is getting annoying.
[G1 Android Development] Reignzone:
This is all so funny.

@ccyrowski: I spoke w/ you a few times on Twitter in regards to the progress you and JAC were making with this project (prior to the 1.8 release) and you stated that instead of small updates here and there, that you guys planned on dropping major builds each time.

Honestly, with all these reported issues, it doesn't seem like you guys were being very patient in releasing "the latest" features. Your builds were solid as **** without "BFS" and all this other nonsense. My suggestion; slow it the **** down. It'll save you all the;

- Do I have to wipe from 1.8-2.0 to install 2.1?

- How do I format my extension partition to update?

- Why am I getting so many force close issues?

- It's fast, but why are there so few applications from Hero?

- Blah, blah, blah, etc.

You guys have been working hard man...take a break. Drop something competitively major. Trust me, we can all be patient and satisfied without a new build every other day.
[G1 Android Development] trill12:
Maps still dont work :(

All good. Runs like the wind.
[G1 Android Development] AGunz82:
All these wipes blow. You need to cyanogize your joints. I never wipe with his roms. Setting up ringtones and everything else over and over is OCDish. Hero is dope but tedious.
[G1 Android Development] wiseradvizor:
This is my number one request. I would be forever grateful for the time saved.
[G1 Android Development] h.nocturna:
Honestly? Just wipe, then flash your data partition via fastboot and you'll get all your settings back...

i need some quick hero help. i'm on jacxhero 2.0 and my text message app isn't working properly. i'm not getting any texts. it viberates and rings and everything, but it doesn't getl isted so there's no way i can tell waht message i got. and when i type a message out to someone, when i send it, the chat window says "loading" and stays there forever. anyone know a fix?
[G1 Android Development] trill12:
Ive done it. Still cant find my location.
[G1 Android Development] h.nocturna:
Yes, don't restore your sms via data.img or Backup for Root Users...
[G1 Android Development] oneyoungjay:
SD card help anyone.... seems to be the only problem
[G1 Android Development] Lieu10ant:
heh, yeah i restored my sms's using backup for root users, now how can i fix this? i tried deleting all of my text message s (successfully) but it still doesn't work. any way i can fix this without reinstalling the rom? maybe reinstalling the app?
[G1 Android Development] h.nocturna:
its a difference in the database, there's a thread on how to fix it. Go search.
[G1 Android Development] cephaus:
Does anyone else get a permission denied while trying to adb push?
[G1 Android Development] jigarcaptain:
Do you use any Backup restore application for SMS? This happened to me when I restored v1.7 SMS to v1.8.

Do all the step again and this time don't restore SMS from old backup.:)
[G1 Android Development] therealgillz:
Question!

I was on 1.5 before, now I got a new SD card, so I want to go to 1.8.

I formatted it correctly for the 3 partitions, put the update.zip on it, but now I can't remember if I have to wipe data/factory reset before I install the update.zip.

I'm running a Rogers HTC Dream.
[G1 Android Development] h.nocturna:
You people must be joking... the OP is there for a reason...
[G1 Android Development] trill12:
calm down, dude lol.
[G1 Android Development] Reignzone:
HAHAHA!

Wow.

This is hilarious. For kicks, I decided to flash this 2.1 build to my spare G1, I use an entirely different SD card (Class 6 - I have several) reformatted the partitions and everything...

Here's the funny part. As soon as it boots into home screen, I go to tap the menu - BOOM, ****ing force close of TouchFlo and "acore" crash!

RAAAAAPE! Classic. Nice work guys.

EDIT: Why would anyone here be willing to compromise QUALITY and RELIABILITY for speed? Oh, and of course; still force closes, as expected immediately upon trying to search your contacts. It's a phone? You make calls with it? Thank God I have a phone to test this on.
[G1 Android Development] therealgillz:
Or you could just answer the question
[G1 Android Development] cephaus:
that must suck

mines pretty fast actually. ive never had a touchflo FC or acore FC

also JACxHEROSki-v2.1 - Experimental
[G1 Android Development] jmotyka:
I have no idea why you people are having any issues with forces closes, I've had none and I've been running jac from 1.8 to 2.1.
[G1 Android Development] tee aiy emm:
No.. he's right, I really don't think you gave a real effort to finding out the answer for yourself before you posted that question.

jacheroshiv2.0 and swappiness

can some1 plz point me in the right direction for swappiness. i have jacheroskiv2.0 some lags and loading here N there. current swap is 32 and 512 ext. do i go to console and enter sh /system/bin/swap -s to check and change the swappiness? or do i download swapper prog. or can i use terminal? i have been reading alot of thread and dont understand which is the best way. i rather use console on c 1.4. i have 3 partitions already and that brings me to my last question. do i need to delete my partitions in order to change the swap from 32 to 64 or 96? do i have to format it? which is the best way. but i really need to know how to change the swappiness? if its as easy as going to the console and entering that code...thanks or point me to a thread that shows you how to change swappiness. i have search sorry i am noob.
[G1 Android Development] h.nocturna:
Really... You think you re so important that I should answer a question that has been asked countless times... while the answer has been posted on the OP? Even if it wasn't... the search button is at the top of the page, a lot closer to click than scrolling down and clicking Post Reply, try using it first...
[G1 Android Development] cephaus:
you can use this in terminal or adb shell

echo 60 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness

you can change the "60" to whatever number you want. I dont think you can go over 100 tho
[G1 Android Development] Lieu10ant:
hey i found the thread that had info about the "sms loading" issue that i have after i upgraded to 2.0 after backing up my sms's.... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=558377

hope you guys like
[G1 Android Development] Docavelli:
Did you ever stop to think it may have been something you did wrong??? :eek: I didn't do half the stuff everybody else is doing to their phones (just wipe,wipe ext3, repair ext#, and flash) and besides a couple of load screens coming out of heavy websites, I haven't had one problem. I've been on 2.1 for over twelve hours now.

And let's say for the sake of argument you didn't do anything wrong. There's still no need for this sort of crap. These guys work hard (in their spare time, for free I remind you) to bring you nuts choices for your phones and all you give back is crap. There's nothin wrong with constructive criticism but this type of stuff needs to stop!

You are the man palosjr! :D

I've been wanting transparent Rosie on these newer Heros. I tried pushing Twisted's ZeroXD Rosie and got all sorts of problems. I can't wait to see the thread and see how you did it.
[G1 Android Development] Reignzone:
I wish they would charge money for this ****. People would stop complaining. As you can see, my comment wasn't complaints. Lol. I just thought it was hysterical that this build isn't half as reliable. Hence experimental. Which is why I gave it a try, to be dangerous.
[G1 Android Development] j0k3rn2o:
Cool thanks since I have terminal which I downloaded from the market I am going to use that thanks again
[G1 Android Development] trill12:
yeah, when you flash the build, terminal is automatically installed.
[G1 Android Development] h.nocturna:
But the point is: it is reliable. I've been running it since it came out and I haven't gotten a single FC or reboot yet... ergo, not hysterical? Its reliable and fast, just needs a little more polishing, which is what they're doing.
[G1 Android Development] joadchob:
yeah its reliable, its the fatest Rom i tried up until now !!! good job jac. Keep working
[G1 Android Development] zerolimit1:
wow! this is fast! a lot less lag!!! still a little lagy! but not compared to all the other ones! this is by far the BEST!!! hero rom!

Using on "MyTouch3G"
[G1 Android Development] ~~Tito~~:
All ROMs are experimental. . .They just put experimental to shut up the whiners
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. You're doing something wrong, obviously. In fact, there is no doubt in my mind. I am so certain it's like i've had a spiritual awakening and found god.
[G1 Android Development] dragonranpu:
OK BT is working for the MyTouch with Twisteds roms apparently Spent about 40 minutes going through his thread to confirm this. But BT is still NOT working for the G1.

However some of the messages are a little conflicting and confusing. :confused:

I have a mytouch3g too.. Did you get the screen rotation fixed and/or the wifi to work? Am willing to try and follow any leads to get this fixed on my phone.

I would love to use this rom but these issues are deal breakers for me. I had to go back to CyanogenMod 4.1.7.. Very fast too!

CC
[G1 Android Development] jugg2000:
Tweak your user.conf settings, that'll eliminate 98% of the lag. This build runs as good, if not better, then CRB43. Very fast, responsive, etc. It's all about the settings for each device.
[G1 Android Development] michagol2:
I gave up on hero about a month and a half ago due to lag issues. I've been using jacxrom and cyanogens 4.1x experimental series of roms when I deceided to give it another whirl and I am glad I did. This is the hero that I've been waiting for no force closes, everthing works... very good speed... def the fastest ive used and is really up there with stock cupcake in comparison...thanks for all the hard work.....will be sticking around with hero for a while

[G1 Android Development] crobinson24:
i would just like to say that this is my first comment about any of the hero roms and i have been on them since they started but anyways i felt like i needed to say that this rom is BLAZING fast and i have not had not a single fc or loading screen and i have a 4gb CLASS 2 sdcard so for you people having problems you are doing something wrong.

Thanx to cc and jac.

by the way it is not that hard to search to find an answer to your problems bc i have never asked a question in this forum(maybe one)but i have searched and always found an answer.

By the way im on the g1 with the default setting that come with the rom
[G1 Android Development] jugg2000:
No question they're doing something wrong. If there is an issue with FCs and loading screens, people need to check their settings and adjust accordingly.

Stating that you're getting FCs, freezes, and loading screens won't help you get answers when the answers are already given a million times. SETTINGS, SETTINGS, SETTINGS.

USER.CONF... nuff said.
[G1 Android Development] crr127:
ok so i'm trying to edit the user.conf but for some reason having some issues lol... everytime i try and pull out the user.conf it doesn't pull out and if i cp a different one in it will boot loop.. i'm assuming that if you copy a new one in that it doesn't replace the one currently there correct?

these are the commands i'm using to pull it out but it doesn't ever show up on the sd card.. maybe i'm just doing something wrong

su

rwsystem

cp /system/bin/user.conf /sdcard/user.conf

then when your done editing it

su

rwsystem

cp /sdcard/user.conf /system/bin/user.conf

jsut wanted to add that i am unable to get 2.0 and 2.1 to load. I am always getting a bootloop. 1.8 loads fine with no problems at all. I have done a full format of my SD card and a system wipe in fastboot via cmd on my PC. The settings you see in my sig are what the partitions i am trying.
[G1 Android Development] PeDe7:
im still using v1.6 of this hero rom [i know, way behind] but i havent had the need to update to later versions. i rarely get the htc logo going back to the home screen and when it happens, it loads quick. i use the rav recovery image [includes everything cyanogen has plus more like one-click partition and exts], task manager pro to kill anything that's not being used and is idle, and i use the overclock widget at 383cpu. hopefully this helps some of the newbies cuz im one myself.

im also curious to know if once the donut firmare is stable and running, will it's features be brought over onto this rom??

hey having a little problem here with ChompSMS.

I can't start a conversation in it. when trying to send the message chomp crashes.

I can start them in the regular messaging app with out any problems.

Once the convo is started i can message in chomp without any problems.

tried reinstalling chomp twice now with no such luck. so i'm assuming it's something to do with the rom.

on the bright side i havn't gotten any missed text messages so i'll settle for having to start convos in one app and go to another but just figured i'd put this out there.
[G1 Android Development] jugg2000:
YES.

It is pretty much required.

Nice Fast Hero Rom

I dont post on here too much only questions when i dont know how to do something but i downloaded a couple of hero roms in the past and from the lag and minor problems i left really i just wanted to see how the hero rom was, i left it and went on to your JacHero roms and i was satisfied with the results. I'm the type to try new things and really i dont know awhole lot about this stuff but i learned and when this rom came out i gave it a shot coming from CyanogenMod 4.0.4 stable i have to say Jac you did your thing on these hero roms you came along way from when Haykuro threw out the first ever dump. I give you and all the devs props for giving us these options of roms to use and messing and playing with it instead of having a phone and just adding stuff to it cause before this thats all you could do much respect to ya'll and keep doing your thing Jac nice and fast daily use rom keep pushing the limits

[G1 Android Development] waxman2009:
I noticed that ever since JACxHEROSki-v1.6r2b the music player won't update the song list in the music folder.

Heres whats happening to me if you sort by artist it would list from 0 to F. Everything after that will be ignored and it will only list the first 80 songs and if you delete a song that it was able to detect, the music player will still think its there but you can't play it because its missing. This means it says that there are 80 songs when in reality it should say 79. I know it isn't the music files themselves as I have copied and pasted a renamed version of a detected song and it'll still be ignored. Rebooting the phone every time I update the music doesn't help either. Currently on JACxHEROSki-2.1 and it is still happening.
[G1 Android Development] crr127:
i have the issue when i add songs or an entire music folder over it will only display like 10 songs when in reality there are like 300 on there.. so what i do is go into the player click on the left and side button the one with the lines.. slide the bar over to songs and it will update the folder for you... try that out..
[G1 Android Development] waxman2009:
I tried that before posting and it will only give me the same 80, including the one that is deleted.
[G1 Android Development] crr127:
it should populate them... does it show all of ur artists??? try moving the folder off the sdcard and than putting it back on reboot ur phone and try what i told you..
[G1 Android Development] roguestatuskat:
okay so i installed 2.1 on my hero this morning at work

and so far

i have had a few loading screens nothing out of the normal

but idk if this is only me but sometimes my alt and shift keys dont function even though on the little line it put the mark to show that it has been engaged but it doesnt really work unless i put delete then it does delete the line

but also

can someone post a sticky with like all the basic linux-swap commands such as turning it off and on and switching swap and stuff like that
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
shouldn't be getting ANY load screens.
[G1 Android Development] tee aiy emm:
Sounds like you're having some typical htc_ime interference. The next time that happens, try clicking menu twice and your alt/shift keys should be back to normal. If not, well then.. it isnt interference from htc_ime.
