WOAH WOAH WOAH...

Are you sure about this statement??? Cuz when I upgraded MoDaCo 1.5.1 to the JAC 1.7r2 kernel it actually made the Rosie SLOWER. I don't know why, I just know that this is 100% TRUE. I am not affected by placebo or mind tricks. I know what I know.

I actually thought MaDaCo was nothing but hype and people smokin' drugs...

Until someone finally told me that I should have never upgraded.

Took their advice. Flashed it NAKED.

FASTEST ROSIE I HAVE EVER SEEEEEN. :eek:

I can't believe what I'm saying. JAC!?!??!! Cookin' up a MoDaCo 1.5.1!?!?!

I thought I wasn't getting through to ANYBODY. Almost getting myself kicked out of threads and forums... Its all worth it.

If JAC can do all his little fix'ins with MoDaCo 1.5.1 and keep the speed of that thing... All I can say is.... JAC you are NOT "just another developer"...
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
And if it IS the "same damn thing" that he's already released then lets get that speed BACK!

Right???
[G1 Android Development] ~~Tito~~:
Try 2.2 it will blow you away :p.
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
Did he really say this!?!?!?!

Or is this some kind of a joke you all are playing with me!?!?!?

JAC?!?! We finally got JAC's attention!?!?!?!

:eek:
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
I thought 2.2 was for the HTC Hero phone???

Mind supplying a link?????
[G1 Android Development] ~~Tito~~:
Here you go, then apply the JAC kernal update(I made with help) and watch the super speed commence.
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
And is there a reason WHY "upgrading" MoDaCo 1.5.1 to your 1.7r2 kernel actually slowed it down?? If I'm not mistaken, stock, its using your 1.6.2r2a kernel, correct?

Just wondering if any devs know what went wrong???

You would think it would get FASTER or at least stay the same... no?

Firmware

I flashed to the most recent ver of jacxheroskiv and it works great other than the blue tooth thing.

I do have a question can we still update firmware when it comes out? like i know that they are rolling out a update that is rebuilding the market. are we still able to update without messing anything up or do we need to keep it the way it is?
[G1 Android Development] ~~Tito~~:
Post your amazement in that rom thread :p.
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
One LAST thing, do I have to have to also download and use all the stuff that's in the first link like that compcache script, cyanogen's bfs patch, etc.???

(I wont ask you how to use scripts and patches lol)

Or just the 2.2 zip and then your kernel update???

Just curious. Thanks again for your help! :D

[G1 Android Development] sunset73:
Hi there,

I can see that you have the same problem as I do.

Try re-partitioning your micro-sd card.

MAKE SURE you have FAT32, ext2/3, linux-swap.

want to know how to partition sdcard?

Google :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] B-man007:
would you stop cluttering jac and drizzy's threads with mindless awe of modaco's roms. if you want to praise him, do it in his thread. i can understand maybe one or 2 posts, but you have at LEAST 20 posts between the jac and drizzy's threads advertising for madaco. i dont wanna hear that crap repeatedly when Im going through these threads to find out the latest information. Go and continually bump his thread if you like it so much. people will use it if they wish.

This is Jac's thread and you are disrespecting him by spamming his thread with ads for another rom. Same thing with drizzy.

EDIT: WOW you've spammed nearly every hero rom thread with this crap
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
What are you talking about??? I'm NOT spamming anything.

I just saw on here that JAC HIMSELF said he's gonna cook up something for MoDaCo. I was amazed. :eek:

And that's awesome for you and everyone involved. Can't wait to see what he cooks up. :)

You need to relax cuz I haven't told ONE person to flash over to MoDaCo.

I was merely RESPONDING to what !!!JAC!!!! said about it.

Stop being so testy....

Geez...

GPS

gps is not available in this version?
[G1 Android Development] vr24:
Woah woah woah.... I've used both. 1.5.1 is definitely fast and pretty stable, and so is 1.7r2. If you upgraded 1.5.1 to 1.7r2 without wiping, then that may be your culprit. But a clean flash of both produced almost identical results, other than 1.5.1 having better spell correction support, speed wise I noticed virtually zero difference. Both are very fast.
[G1 Android Development] xyrcncp:
Yes it is, I just used it 10 minutes ago.
[G1 Android Development] badger32d:
tNo,

I am noticing a similar issue, are you using a G1? I have ensured the GPS is enabled in the settings, but I can only get location from cell towers. ( only tried with google maps, footprints )

I am thinking perhaps this ROM doesn't see the G1 GPS as valid. ? Anyone else having this issue with a G1?

xyrcncp,

Are you using a G1 or a Hero?
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
If he had a Hero he could not be running this ROM. Did you install the right SPL and radio? I'm guessing there is a problem with your radio.
[G1 Android Development] twflys:
Does anyone know how to get text messages to work in 2.1? It stopped working after day 1, even with 1.8..... please?

Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] badger32d:
mike,

ehh, good point. Sorry, been jumping around forums quite a bit lately and got myself mixed up!

I have the 2.22.19.26I radio installed now. Is this correct, or do I need another version? This is the one I installed when using some of Cyangens ROM's.

Thanks for the observation!

[G1 Android Development] ~~Tito~~:
I said in one of the posts in that thread to only flash the 2.2 rom and my update :P.

JAC's and ccyrowski's kernal do some amazing things for that rom.
[G1 Android Development] janelee08:
Was anybody able to fix this? I sent 8 repeat txts to my friend and 4 to another after I rebooted so I'm looking to get this fixed since I don't want to switch out Hero for only 1 quirk =p
[G1 Android Development] xyrcncp:
LOL...:D

Like Mike said, check your radio, SPL, etc...or wipe, repartition and flash again.
[G1 Android Development] sillyshyme:
How many times is the Hero logo and soundaffacts going in loop what is the inital boot time? I do have new spl and radio.
[G1 Android Development] lucky 69:
if you see the green android twice then you have a loop,if not then you don't have a loop.you should only see it once and then htc with its sound effects.if this is the first hero rom you flash,it takes a while to come up.just let the phone sit there ,it will come on if you installed it right.not sure on the exact time of boot time.all phone seem to boot diff.some fast some slow !
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
Without me going throough this whole thread...

Can somebody tell me what are some known issues 2.1 has been having??

I remember 1.8 having that force close when closing the screen on sms and other little things...

What's still wrong with this as of now???
[G1 Android Development] expected_un:

Thanks...
[G1 Android Development] mdafabe:
Sorry if this has been posted, but I did a search on this thread and didn't see anything related.

I have the the latest radio and spl installed. I can even create 3 partitions as described. But when I do the upgrade_fs, the screen says creating iode and never returns the prompt back to me. I am forced to take battery out. When I go back to recovery, the 3 partitions are still there and when I run the update.zip it says the installation is complete. I see that people say wait for it to boot, but it has been almost an hour.

I wiped and flash again with no issue and when i go to boot up same thing, the G1 screen. When i go back to recovery mode and try to fix partitions using cm14, I get a bunch of scrolling ..................

That is when I start over again :( when I run the upgrade_fs to convert to ext3, what should happen? Thank you in advance if anyone decides to comment. :)

[G1 Android Development] HTCG1:
What's your recommended settings for this ROM?
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I suggested the default settings and Cyrowski put them in the build. I think it is a good idea to bump up the minimum CPU freq to 245760. Other than that, keep it the way it was installed. Oh, and use a 64MB swap partition for the backing swap.
[G1 Android Development] expected_un:

[G1 Android Development] vr24:
yes, those are the correct commands. Although, instead of typing "reboot" and holding home, you can type "reboot recovery" and it'll boot right back in.

After booting back into recovery, WIPE, then flash the rom.
[G1 Android Development] expected_un:
when i did

mkpartfs primary ext2 7500 8000

it says

Error: Can't have overlapping partitions

[G1 Android Development] tee aiy emm:
It means your fat32 partition (your main /sdcard) is larger than 7500.

Do LED's and MMS/SMS work on JAC's latest hero build?
[G1 Android Development] NepaliGamer:
can we use swapper to do swap?
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
You could if you turned off Compcache or linux swap. But why not just use what's built into the ROM? I don't see the benefit.
[G1 Android Development] blinkerz:
basically, i have the same issue. i can't receive new messages (just some vibration / sound + green LED, but without any notification / new message) and i can't read my old messages (the message box just says "loading"). any known solution?
[G1 Android Development] NepaliGamer:
I still got the Loading screen after using it for 10min. Using the latest version. Also, for some reason, when i try to add a video or a pic or mp3 into the sd card from my comp, it doesnt show up in the SD Card while in the Phone. But when i put sd back into the comp it shows the files....
[G1 Android Development] nycbasic:
Did you edit your User.conf so that it's running on Linux-Swap instead of Compcache? Compcache is known to slow down the ROM just fyi. If not, edit your User.conf and turn off Compcache and BackingSwap. Trust me, afterwards you shouldn't see any loading screens.

As for your video, pic and mp3 you have to put it into the right folders for the files to been seen on your operating system. The reason why I think it's not showing is because you're not putting them into the correct folders. I hope this helps!
[G1 Android Development] nycbasic:
When you're boot looping, that means that you have to reformat your EXT3 partition on your SD card. Go into recovery mode and go to console, press enter and enter the below linux command.

mount -o rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd

rm -rf /system/sd/*

reboot recovery

then wipe and do factory reset and install the rom. It should stop boot looping. Good luck!

I gotta say man. This is, by far the best Hero experience I've had on my G1 yet. Only seen the loading screen twice. Once when I was too rushy with the messages and another time re-doing my bookmarks. About Swapper though. I 'm guessing you want us to get it off the market?
[G1 Android Development] badger32d:
@miketaylor00

Thanks so much for your assistance,

I reformatted and partitioned my SD card

tried flashing again, had the same problem ( GPS not working )

reformatted / partitioned again,

redownloaded the JACxHero 2.1 ROM

Flashed Radio, SPL and the ROM and voila - she's running smoothly.

Thanks again for your help and thank you JAC for an amazing ROM!

Use these commands in terminal:

For system applications

rm -r /system/app/<name of apk>
rm -r /data/data/<name of data folder for apk>

For regular applications (using Apps2sd)

su
rwsystem
rm -r /system/sd/app/<name of apk>
rm -r /data/data/<name of data folder for apk>

For private applications (using Apps2sd)

su
rwsystem
rm -r /system/sd/app-private/<name of apk>
rm -r /data/data/<name of data folder for apk>

Make a nandroid backup before you do anything. Be very careful on what you remove. Some apps are required for the ROM to run properly. The ones you listed shouldn't be a problem to remove.

Edit: If the app has been odexed then you want to delete that too. It is the same as removing the app except you change the extension from apk to odex
