1.7r2 was the fastest rosie to date. Myself and a few others had a conversation about this many pages ago. It got lost in the sea of newb posts and posts from those who think because the build number is higher its automatically faster. It also didn't have the people search force close, or the random reboots. The only true daily use hero build from JAC. Though I continue to test the new ones, as its always good to test yourself. 90% of the reviews are useless.

Speaking of useless reviews, here's mine :D

2.2 BFS seems to once again make the apps load faster (though we're talking minimally here) while slowing rosie. Havent had the reboot yet, but I'm not sticking around for one, as I will be flashing back to 1.7 for overall stability and speed. Thanks for the work though guys. I will continue to test them, though the reviews will continue to get lost in the "Do I need to wipe" and "will this work on the G1?" posts :eek:
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Yeah, for some reason it doesn't work with the MyTouch/Magic. Yes the Hero kernel is much different than the one used for Cyanogen. The kernel is really what makes Jac and Cyrowski's ROMs stand out from other ROMs. It is the reason this ROM, xROM and JacMyTouchSki are so fast compared to other ROMs. Almost every other Hero ROM uses their kernel too. A lot of people don't realize how big of an impact the kernel has.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Check out the next one when it is out. It makes Rosie smooth.
[G1 Android Development] mylostlonelysoul:
/system/sd: 456783k total 107706k used 349077k available (block size 1024)

and my cache is only 1288k used

so yeah, looks like I got rooms...right?
[G1 Android Development] the1wingedangel:
Sweet, I'll give it a shot when it comes :)
[G1 Android Development] Loccy:
That's a shame - it's not a lot but I reckoned the extra 10Mb would help Hero no end, give it a bit more breathing space. There's an extended RAM Hero ROM over in the Sapphire board, so clearly it can be made to work on the Magic.

Agreed ref: Jac's kernel. Obviously I'm only just post initial flashing, so have a lot of experimenting to do yet, but that'll probably be why if I stick with a Hero ROM it'll be this one even sans the 10Mb hack. It's not my intent to insult someone's work I haven't even tried yet but suspect a Jac kernel with ~96Mb free will be faster than a eugene373 ~106Mb!

And if I don't get on with this it is probably time I tried xROM again. I last tried it months and months ago and wasn't too impressed, to tell the truth - it just seemed like a themed version of what I had as stock. But to be honest I was still completely newb back then and probably didn't have a clue what I was looking at :D

Oh, initial bug - force close on first boot on the HeroLED app. I'm sure someone else has reported it anyway and quite frankly I couldn't give a monkeys about LEDs.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Cyrowski will get the other 10MB for the mytouch and magic. Its just going to take him some time to play with it.
[G1 Android Development] Loccy:
Can I make a request on behalf of Magic/Sapphire/MT3G users?

If Magic detected, DON'T do A2SD? We don't need it. Whenever I install a ROM where the original audience was Dream users, I have to go through the startup scripts and ethnically cleanse any faffing around with symlinks before first boot. (The a2sd script is badly named, because it does other things too, so I can't just trash it).

Suggestion: couldn't you include an alternate version of the a2sd script (maybe called noa2sd)? People could then use that by renaming it if they wanted to run off of the NAND.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I think I can provide an a2sd script that skips the a2sd. I agree it is poorly named. The problem is that the mytouch users often want apps2sd. And I don't know if there is a way to distinguish. I look into that. If not, at least the file can be there to be renamed by those who want it.
[G1 Android Development] cmsweet21:
waiting for the next update..........................
[G1 Android Development] Loccy:
Just noticed an interesting quirk - HTC_IME doesn't give you any word predictions in the SMS app. Anyone else seen this?
[G1 Android Development] cmsweet21:
is there any direct download from PC?

coz i aint got net here for my phone
[G1 Android Development] Rey-619:
why does this rom always reboots?

4 times since the last 2 days.

BTW i'm using 2.2B
[G1 Android Development] marios96:
use this: http://androidmarket.ru/apk/handcentSMS_2.8.6.apk

It's not warez, since the app is actually free...
[G1 Android Development] maxisma:
Ok, so, does this Kernel have the memory hack for BOTH, G1 AND Magic/32B?
[G1 Android Development] jugg2000:
Because 2.2b uses the 10MB hack... it was doing the same for me too. I just switched to 2.2a. I'm not trying to brick a phone. I also noticed 2.2b gave me a weird black screen during use. The phone was on and operating but I couldn't see anything.

Somebody will be able to provide an answer...
[G1 Android Development] Argusi:
Using 2.2a and it seems to be running fairly well. A few issues I've seen are already documented. One thing is that it will black screen and stay unresponsive. This happens every couple of hours. No lights or anything come on. The logcat even stops. I let it sit for about 5 minutes and it never moved once it locked up. If you're interested, here is the logcat. I've zipped it as a txt file for space.

Awesome work on this. I just started playing with Hero a few days ago and I'm starting to like it!
[G1 Android Development] acousticfish88:
I had pretty much given up on hero roms... but last night my ext3 partition was acting goofy so i had to wipe it anyways, and i couldnt help but try the version of this rom with the memory hack. I havent had any reboots or anything like that. My experience has been over all very smooth. This is a lot coming from me because if anything gives me trouble or lag i usually switch back over to xrom. The only trouble im really having is that my keyboard is sometimes unable to keep up with my typing. Other than that, this has given me great hope for where hero roms are going. Thanks for all of your awesome work fellas. Oh, and for anyone wondering, i have a 64 mb swap with swapiness set to 60
[G1 Android Development] kolyan:
^ i get the same black screen (3 times so far since in about 20 hours). Whats yours specs ?

I have MT3G (of course wiped and repartitioned all partitions), 64 swap, swappiness unchanged, and ext4 (instead of ext3 what most use here)
[G1 Android Development] tf442:
Reboot

I have had 2 random reboots this morning. I guess I'll flash a different Hero ROM when I get home.

This rom seems to be fast at openning apps, but slow between home screens.

I'll be back when the problems are fixed.

Thanks for your work.
[G1 Android Development] Argusi:
G1 w/ 128 swap (did it for another rom and never changed it) with ext3. Using the stock user.conf as recommended.

As a side note, It's rebooted in the case 2 times since I posted. I'm getting a lot of gmail/twitter/sms notifications. I wonder if it's related to that?
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
I know what I have to do to get the 10MB hack to work with sapphire, I only have to change two files. I just realized it last night as I was going to bed, and haven't gotten around to it. I've been, you know, working!

Haha, I'll get it done hopefully tonight.
[G1 Android Development] kolyan:
i dont get any notifications.......1 time it happened when plugged phone into PC and other 2 times when i hanged up the phone call. didnt have any reboots. other then that black screen issue, its pretty stable so far.
[G1 Android Development] anselmo65:
Here are the files to push if you want to add some blur animations/images to this rom.

adb remount

adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/

adb push com.htc.resources.apk /system/framework/

adb shell reboot

After reboot go into settings/sound & display - then check mark Animation

Enjoy!

(All credit goes to drizzy/crew for making these blur files, I am only providing the resources to utilize this.)

[G1 Android Development] akycia:
Can someone please post terminal commands for this? can't use ADB on my work pc ;)
[G1 Android Development] mccurt29:
can some1 confirm if this build still has audio issues...like the camcorder audio
[G1 Android Development] anselmo65:
assuming your .apk's are in your /sdcard/download directory

Reboot to recovery - enter consule

mount /sdcard

mount /system

cp /sdcard/download/framework-res.apk /system/framework/

cp /sdcard/download/htc.com.resources.apk /system/framework/

Reboot

Hopefully that works !
[G1 Android Development] kolyan:
whats blur animations/images ? any screenshots ?
[G1 Android Development] anselmo65:
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4496788&postcount=1

It is the port from Moto's Blur to the G1 that Drizzy did. I dont have any screenshot's.
[G1 Android Development] ElChouch:
Where are the 10MB extra on the 2.2B ? When using adb shell free I can only see the same amount as usual... ~98mb
[G1 Android Development] anselmo65:
I replaced the audio files with Meltus' G7 audio hack and the camcorder video/audio works great. I have not noticed any other issues. Can't confirm this is the case with the original audio files.
[G1 Android Development] palosjr:
miketaylor00- been testing the ROM since last night, been running great! no FCs anywhere, only weird thing that i have seen is that the IME doesnt really have the popups when pressing keys anymore, not sure if this is on purpose, but it works. running home screens with twitter widget and calendar widget and full of shortcuts and still no lag. i usually have to remove alot of stuff in order to get a hero ROM running decent but this one is running great so far right out of the box. you guys will like this update when it goes public.

Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] zambezy:
Try pushing the old HTC_IME... I have been doing this in ZeroXd works every time. It seems to be little laggy with the autocomplete but I dont mind it. Beats using the backspace.
[G1 Android Development] icpeanuts:
I got a force close error, The application Clock (Processcom.htc.android.worldclock) stopped... when adding an alarm clock through the clock/weather widget. It happens occasionally. It happens when I press/select the alarm /switch it to another, select it again. If I keep pressing the same selection, it will crash also. it happened three time the 15 minutes I spend setting up the alarm. I can re-create it all the time.
[G1 Android Development] h.nocturna:
You want me to take a screenshot... of an animation...
[G1 Android Development] Oizea Hatcher:
safe play from 2.1

Already both flashed 2.2a and 2.2b and got black screen.

For anyone already has 2.1 and want to play 10m hack safely.

Just extract the boot.img and flash (backup your boot.img first)

An obvious issue is the unmatched wlan.ko, replace it when you need.
[G1 Android Development] akycia:
Emergency dialer?

Does anyone know how to get rid of the emergency dialer pop-up when coming out of lock screen when airplane mode is enabled? really annoying...
[G1 Android Development] brian_v3ntura:
basically from what i noticed, whenever you push menu, the menu tray "bounces" and some of the lime green stuff have been changed to red.

lol from what i been told since kindergarten,"nothing is impossible" o.O LIES!
[G1 Android Development] akycia:
also, some of the icons in the system notification bar(3G icon and airplane mode icon) are changed to black(since the blur bar is white), so you cannot see them against the black background
[G1 Android Development] ce_rob:
i'm not sure if this is rom specific, but i've noticed the following:

with the 4x1 (or 1x4?) calendar widget, all of my appointments are listed a day early. for example, saturday i've got a meeting with a client but in that smaller widget, it shows it as being tomorrow...whereas i've added it as a meeting on saturday and the full 4x4 calendar widget shows this. rom specific or hero specific? any ideas on how to fix? TIA!
[G1 Android Development] brian_v3ntura:
oh yea i frogot to include that. i found the blue icons to be too cartoony for my taste
[G1 Android Development] big nu:
LMAO!!! *tearing* this has tremendous comedic value... good stuff h.noc,

also can you post a screen shot of the scrolling while in the browser.:p:eek::rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
I just tested the Blur graphics on the build and they look kinda cheap thats why there small in size I dont like it but there are some cool things I seen,so what I am thinking I want to do is make a custom theme manup456 style for this jacheroski. :cool:
[G1 Android Development] :
hell yeah!! :D:D

Insufficient Stoarge Space

scratch this post..it's working now..
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Thanks for the update. This was what I thought the experience would be for 2.2 A and B but adding the new BFS right at the end messed it up a little. People are going to love this new one.
[G1 Android Development] badger32d:
lucky,

I've been running the b version - everything seems to be running as stated in the release notes.

I'm also getting the purple ( blue / red ) LED when charging as some of the others have noted, but that really doesn't matter.

I have had minimal FC's - mostly related to having the keyboard out when returning to homescreen.

Loading screens are almost non-existant for me, but I am using a 4 gig C2 card, I'm suspecting the slower card speed could be holding back my swap speed. I'll probably throw down and get a 8gig C6 sometime soon.

this build is teh fastest everer, like totally better than anything out there. doood, you shuld all d/l this shiznat NOW!

--Sorry, couldn't resist makin fun of the kiddies ;)
[G1 Android Development] palosjr:
agreed. let me know if you need a tester for some updates. i took down that other link, sorry it took so long, i knocked out last night and hadnt had a chance to get on here til a few hours ago.
[G1 Android Development] ce_rob:
anyone? or is this not being posted in the correct location?
[G1 Android Development] lucky 69:
lol ,love the last line. thanks for the info ! i seen a couple post back that miketaylor00 said that the bfs added on build B might have messed some thing up on it ! so i see an update some time soon! will stick with build A for now for everyday rom ! one thing i forgot to ask was. i download the cartoon sounds and ringtones .it has a option on it to save for ringtone, it says saved .then i go to apply it it's works fine .but when i turn phone off and back on it gone .i don't see it anywhere .i have had on prev.build of hero never did that no big deal just weird .i know it the app .not the rom anyone else have this happen?
[G1 Android Development] minorsecond:
Anyone been noticing that in messages when sending a text, the word suggestion doesn't work?

Also, twice now I have gotten a force close for "system" which puts the phone into the HTC load screen, and begins a force close loop. Had to restart. I'm running the B version.
[G1 Android Development] kolyan:
did u uninstall heroled.apk ?
[G1 Android Development] bolmedias:
I know that if I have a G1, I can use either of the two, but does it really make that much difference which one I use? What's the advantage of this '10MB Hack'?

Also, I currently do not have access to a computer with the Android SDK on it, so I cannot push my own files. I wish to use a 96MB swap partition. Will this be supported without me having to change the user.conf file? And finally, what about compcache on these builds? Are they turned on by default?

And yes I know that some of this has almost definitely been asked before, but I really can't find it, so sorry
[G1 Android Development] lucky 69:
haven't notice that .but i'm running build A .but if you keep having fc issues i would switch to A it seem to be very good !!!!!!!!!
[G1 Android Development] anselmo65:
I would like to see this, as I have always liked anything that manup has done. To me the regular hero is getting kind of bland , especially the stock lockscreen. Let me know if you need any help manup , I am not a pro but I can do some custom editing of images with photoshop cs4.
[G1 Android Development] badger32d:
No, I have not had any issues with it, I know some people have mentioned it FC'ing them, but nothing on my end.
[G1 Android Development] chief2842:
Thanks haven't flashed a rom in a couple of months will try this one later hope I don't have problems with the linux-swap part.
[G1 Android Development] domex2k:
Bolmedias I have for almost 24 hours been using 2.2b and I did not configure the user.conf, and have only had 1 reboot, it was when i open a pdf file and then I press home button it froze and rebooted. Also it did a load screen only once, when press home button while keyboard open. An usually when i install a hero rom, if I get a loading screen I quickly go back to cyan.
[G1 Android Development] jugg2000:
Ok, having too many issues with both versions. I have adjusted the settings here and there and I continue to get freezes and FCs... never had this issue with the previous builds. I can't fix this one no matter what the settings are.

Alittle perplexed...
[G1 Android Development] mylostlonelysoul:
Flashed 2.2. Seems to be running smoothly. When you type text on browsers seems to be a little slow recognizing it. Almost 23 hours with out a self reboot. 4 widgets up, and still running alright. Keep it up. So far so good.
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
been running the 2.2b version on my G1 with a Class 4 card, and havent had any issues with it at all.. only time i saw a black screen was during the initial setup and thats it, pressed the red phone and then menu and it was back working again...

everything is working, got the camcorder to work with sound on record using the volume hack.. its very easy to fix that....
[G1 Android Development] pllexx:
i just flashed my g1 with jacxhero build and it works great, all i needed to to was remove my first partition, and repartition my sdcard with 32mb linux swap,
[G1 Android Development] kolyan:
you should, maybe your leds with start working correctly and you will not have that extra app. running and eating your memory

there is also a fix in build.prop file if leds dont work
[G1 Android Development] lucky 69:
if you are on the latest jachero .you need to set linux swap at 64mb !! 32 doesn't work for this build .
[G1 Android Development] lucky 69:
if your linux swap is set at 96 change to 64 might help out ! im running build A and have no issues
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
i would go with 128mb swap
[G1 Android Development] firestrife23:
tried out 2.2r4 with user.conf..... amazing this one blew 2.2 out of water! no problem, running solid since this morning

Awesome. Thanks for the feedback.

If you don't mind me asking, what is this 2.2r4? I see no mention of it anywhere.

Also, running 2.2a, I've got a permanent purple LED on since I stopped charging. How do I stop it?

HTC_IME

Hi,

I tried to replace HTC_IME.apk by Evil_Hero's, which has a better french input. I replaced libt9.so, too.

It doesn't work (No IME).

Do you know why ?

Thx,
[G1 Android Development] t1h5ta3:
fresh sd, fresh wipe etc..

all good so far! that 15 min initial boot time, i think it took all of 5 tops...

im running this on a class4 card, and its almost as quick as CM is on a class6.

now to reload my apps etc and see how everything go's!

Sorry about the force closes for HeroLED on the MyTouch.

Didn't realize that it would not work on a MyTouch.

Seems to be working great for most people on a g1.

Added what will probably be the final version if anyone with a G1 is interested.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
It works for some people on the Mytouch. I'm going to ask Cyrowski to include your final version in the next update.
[G1 Android Development] jinx10000:
Wow, that is strange but good to hear.
[G1 Android Development] FAMBOLUGA:
few things i have ran into using 2.2r4:

1. just today i was getting a long wait waking up from sleep after pressing menu 20-30 secs

2. got a random HTC loading screen while scrolling the twitter widget, then another clicking the wifi widget right after that. i didn't get a logcat and i haven't been able to reproduce them.

still very fast and no other problems.
[G1 Android Development] pllexx:
meen you are right.... i guess that explains why it so slow on my g1
[G1 Android Development] The_Chrome_Coyote:
Awesome ROM compared to the other hero's I tried. Im a MT3G user and I actually like Apps2SD, it a much easier way to back them up and transfer between ROMs without having to go through with clunky batch installers. Also I like having all that room for my cache's and I have way too many apps lol

Im having a couple of issues; Hero LED doesnt work as has been reported for MT3G, and I did have a slow response time once when trying to wake it from sleep.

Im also having a sound issue. Notifications dont seem to be grabbing their sound files, just vibrating. This has happened with Handcent, ChompSMS, and the stock Messaging App.

Oh, and do I need to use SetCPU, overclocker, or something similar or does the ROM do it for me? :D thanks!
[G1 Android Development] dragonranpu:
From the other thread about LEds, it looks like the purple was on purpose because it was easier to do.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Try reselecting the notification file. It probably lost the pointer to where it is. You don't need to run an overclocker with this ROM.
[G1 Android Development] The_Chrome_Coyote:
I did, even tried selecting different sounds. They work for a couple of notifications, then stop entirely. With Handcent I couldnt even get them to ring when "testing notification"

The Evil Hero ROM thread mentions that they think 240 might have a memory leak problem. Is this something that other's have observed? Basically the ROM gets more and more unstable the longer its on.
[G1 Android Development] jinx10000:
Fictionles chose purple for charging on purpose. I changed it to blue because it looked the same as the flashing led. If people don't like the charge light at all I could remove it. Suggestions are welcome. However you should make them in the HeroLED thread. I won't catch most of them here.
[G1 Android Development] neok44:
I have this exact same sound issue. There is no way to fix it short of reinstalling the rom from what i've been told.

So now i'm just waiting to do that until theres a version out that has the new marketplace and other donut upgrades.
