I tried Weather.apk from JACxHERO v1.0 and there was no change.. then the com.htc.WeatherWidget.apk and no change then both com.htc.WeatherWidget.apk and com.htc.WeatherWidget.odex and still no change.

Here's my batch file..

@echo off

adb shell reboot recovery

adb shell mount /dev/block/mtdblock5 /data

adb shell mount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

adb push Weather.apk /system/sd/app_s

adb push com.htc.WeatherWidget.apk /system/sd/app_s

adb push com.htc.WeatherWidget.odex /system/sd/app_s

pause

adb shell reboot

the pause is just there so I can see if it worked and it did. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong??

Also am I the only one who doesn't use a dark background and has this issue?? :p
[G1 Android Development] Dror520:
don't push the .odex file. I didn't and it worked ...
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
I pulled the weather app from Drizzy's 2.7 and did

adb remount

adb push weather.apk /system/sd/app_s

adb shell

reboot

and it works great. The world clock widget did't work for me on 1.1, but by pushing this, it now works.
[G1 Android Development] brian_v3ntura:
backup for root users

can anyone confirm that backup for root users is off the market? preferably sum1 not running jacxhero 1.1
[G1 Android Development] devsk:
yeah, what's the deal with that?
[G1 Android Development] NickDoughty:
1.1 is fast as hell. like fresh g1 outta the box fast!
[G1 Android Development] Jeffreybcam:
what sd card do u have?
[G1 Android Development] NickDoughty:
8 gig, class 6 :)
[G1 Android Development] Jeffreybcam:
k im gonna buy one
[G1 Android Development] NickDoughty:
thats the best to run the g1 off of to get the best outcome
[G1 Android Development] LoganK13:
anyone tried the Latest build yet...n i'm not talking bout 1.1...i'm talking bout the one on Drizzy's twitter

here's the link

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?tekmfz5jzk2
[G1 Android Development] Dror520:
Yea I just downloaded it, did anyone flash it yet?
[G1 Android Development] NickDoughty:
My internal storage is at 41 mb, doesnt this build have automatic a2sd?? i have partitions set up for it, and i rebooted and same thing..can someone help me out?
[G1 Android Development] Loccy:
Has anyone got this working on a Magic yet?

I've just tried 1.1 on my Magic and got a reboot loop, both using the Dream image intact (which was just out of curiosity more than actually expecting it to work) and also by modifying boot.img and copying init.trout.rc to init.sapphire.rc, repacking the boot.img, packing it all back up again as a zip, and re-signing the .zip file. It flashed, started to boot, then looped at the Hero screen.

The logcat output included

I've seen a couple of others on this thread who've got this ROM working on the Magic. Were there any other tricks or hacks that you used that I'm missing, or (I'll confess this is the first time I've tried this) am I just fundamentally doing it wrong?
[G1 Android Development] :
you NEED linux-swap
[G1 Android Development] :
does anyone else have crappy battery life on 1.1
[G1 Android Development] johnphamiliar:
excuse my language but that **** is FCKING fast! lol

im running the latest.zip right now and man, i have to say noticeably faster than v3r2, and im running 4gb class six ext2/ext3 with 96mb linuxswap.
[G1 Android Development] justanothercrowd:
1.2 uping to vps
[G1 Android Development] Z҉A҉L҉G҉O̚̕̚:
Will you please edit the first post to reflect the current releases. Thank you :).
[G1 Android Development] devsk:
what's the changelog? any speed ups...:D
[G1 Android Development] justanothercrowd:
See this is kinda like a social experiment. 1.1 is basically 3r2. Don't see how they can perform differently.
[G1 Android Development] Z҉A҉L҉G҉O̚̕̚:
@ justanothercrowd

Ba weep gra na weep nini bon :).
[G1 Android Development] Dyonas:
I hope it isn't really that because although I can see why you'd want to with all the bickering that goes on some (like me) try out the different versions based on the majority feedback. Having to set the phone up after flashing is laborious enough without it being an experiment on whether v3r2 or 1.1 feels different to people when it's the same code with a different label.
[G1 Android Development] bigchi2000:
I noticed that, but stuck with the hero because of the theme, lockscreen, etc
[G1 Android Development] zencloud:
See it running on the Android emulator:

Big thanks to http://twitter.com/MikeIzFresh :)
[G1 Android Development] hiroots:
is what drizzy released on twitter what jac posted on xda?
[G1 Android Development] devsk:
JAC/Drizzy: can we please put newer busybox in this ROM? It seems to be stuck at 1.8.1 (from 2007). Please update that to 1.14.2. Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
thats what i dont get!!!
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
well good people when i followed JAC's thing on making my partition for a 2gb sd i noticed that well not ALL of the mbs are being used. the card holds 2000 something mb and with the partitions all thats being used is 1732. Does that mean i can just rm the swap file and make it bigger for testing and all that? like change it to 1700-1764 or 1700-1796? Just wondering never asked the question and never seen it asked so yah.
[G1 Android Development] devsk:
I think there is one setting which screams: "All your speeds is belong to me." And that setting is: Window animations. Install spare parts from market and turn off window animations. You still get the goodness of Rosie and all the beauty but its faster now. I am not saying it will blow your mind away but its definitely very effective.

It has made tonnes of difference in the usefulness of this ROM!
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Exactly what Drizzy released. same thing.
[G1 Android Development] justanothercrowd:
OF course. I'm working on a 1.2 with CC 0.6+ and my compatible kernel and it has the latest busybox
[G1 Android Development] chevycowboyusa:
good call on the other thread johnny and all

Can't believe I wasted time flashing that other rom..

Jac you done good work here and props to all that helped.

I'll wait for your version when you get bt working! Thanks
[G1 Android Development] KennySmoothx:
Sounds sweet but whats the difference between this MMS.apk and the one in the current JACHero?
[G1 Android Development] CPR123:

one is odexed and one isn't.

minor UI difference.

besides that, not much more.
[G1 Android Development] markimar:

[G1 Android Development] jigdagod:
Is it included in 2.5?
[G1 Android Development] dbhatesyou:
you know you can speed this up just by typing:

adb shell

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

rm system/app/PDF*

rm system/sd/app/Q*

rm data/app_s/teet* htcsearch* htcmail* htcPh* *book*

reboot
[G1 Android Development] xREVOx:
You gotta ask JAC. I'm not sure if he did this in 2.5... according to the features on the first post, I'd say no... but I don't see why this patch wouldn't work for 2.5...
[G1 Android Development] jl1030:
i got 78.7mb
[G1 Android Development] dbhatesyou:
this has been answered a lot... learn to read; if it says cant determine location just keep trying; mostly its got interference. so just keep trying if it doesnt.
[G1 Android Development] fdeschape:
im flashing 2.5 now... will post screenshot when done
[G1 Android Development] CPR123:
Thanks alot!
[G1 Android Development] stopjockingme@gmail.com:
Thank you dude! This will be handy. I know the tutorial on how to remove them has been brought up and posted before but it was hard finding it through 600+ pages. Ill keep this in notepad or something.
[G1 Android Development] Lou2serious:
I've tried it multiple times it only works on EDGE for me
[G1 Android Development] Hacksaw Jim Thuggin:
hmmm..im gettin an error at line 281 when i try to update to 2.5..will try downloadin again..............
[G1 Android Development] Truculent:
Thank you so much for that video, it made the install so much easier. I bow to you sir.
[G1 Android Development] stopjockingme@gmail.com:
Hey i need the names of the widgets that came in hero, I'm trying to remove more widgets like stocks but i don't know the exact file name to remove them.
[G1 Android Development] jigdagod:
If you get root explorer from the market you can remove what you want.
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
lmao me and this other guy was talking about this earlier too lol glad to see people are using this app :D im going to switch up between having the screen animations enabled in the settings of the phone because on previous builds that used to make it smoother also.
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
JAC/Drizzy Have you guys ever thought of adding Meltus's Audio hack to this build? his v6 is really really nice on these builds and the sound quality is definitely noticeable and the volume.
[G1 Android Development] Dror520:
Hey JAC/Drizzy is there anyway you could make the camera button on the g1 act like the search button on the Hero? that would be great!
[G1 Android Development] bigchi2000:
What did I do?

I had 1.1, my sms and mms messages worked, dont know how but they did even tho the pics would come hours later, flashed 1.2 and my messaging forced closed from boot, so i restored my backup 1.1 and i didnt even have a messaging icon this time, messaging FC on boot again, decided to use chompsms and 1.2 but am curious as to what happened...any ideas??
[G1 Android Development] g2crx:
Did you wipe your ext2/3? If you didnt you should that should fix the FC issue
[G1 Android Development] Chance Ill:
u have to wipe before flashing AND restoring
[G1 Android Development] Griphine:
Thank you very much..flashing fast! : )

A very good work for this 1.2!
[G1 Android Development] mburris:
For what its worth, this started working this morning...

I think it may have been happening because I had restored using the switchROM script (nandroid and /system/sd/app* restore combo).

Maybe the cookie like system that gmail uses had expired or something.

But it seems like all is working now. off to test 1.2
[G1 Android Development] Docavelli:
Was there ever a solution found for the phone not detecting incoming calls sooner? I like these hero ROMs but this is my only phone so i need that to be on point first and foremost. Having the phone not recognize a call until the callers third ring is causing me to miss some calls. I have my rom working great except for that. I cant find the conversation again so i dont know if there was a solution found.

I do like HERO but i may have to go back to my ION unless something is found. Im gonna flash 1.2 and see if anything changed.

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] bigchi2000:
thanx @ dre and g2crx, i did wipe the first time around yet i decided to start from scratch, redownload, re-partition ,re-fix ext, etc, and im gucci now.

sidenote...

white status bar to match g1junky's white rosie???
[G1 Android Development] dr3as:
Strange, have tested all builds of jac and drizzy's hero ROM, and this one made my phone loopboot.

SD-card is right partitioned, i wiped all partitions, and did wipe before and after installing update...
[G1 Android Development] TDMaster:
yeah u need to delete the data from the Ext3 Partition or the phone will bootloop

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

rm -rf /system/sd/*
[G1 Android Development] AbsoluteDesignz:
note, if u wanna keep ur apps and not reinstall them...you can simply

rm -rf /system/sd/app_s
[G1 Android Development] dr3as:
As i said, all is wipe/deleted, also the Ext3 partition :S
[G1 Android Development] TDMaster:
yep just installed the latest of JacHero 1.2 and also bootloop...
[G1 Android Development] 281:
AHHH now im pissed ok i really need help idk whats going on so i push launcher.apk and launcher.odex and all i get is boot loop in terminal i did this. is this right and it wont work it will just keep looping the hero animation what do i do to fix this because this build is fast but it goes to htc screen to much and id rather stay more stable but still use hero

this is what i did in terminal and everything worked well until i rebooted the phone:

su [enter]

mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system [enter]

cd /sdcard/ [enter]

busybox cp launcher.apk /data/app_s [enter]

busybox cp launcher.odex /data/app_s [enter]

then reboot

BTW I GOT THE LAUNCHER.APK AND .ODEX FILES FROM THE NEWEST SYSTEM DUMP IT WORKED BEFORE BUT NOW IDK...
[G1 Android Development] dr3as:
When i loops, i can see the usb is connected message on top, and somethimes it goes to landscape, strange thing.

Looks like it is the setup that don't want to start :S Bah
[G1 Android Development] Noobyflasher:
OK SO ARE THERE ANY CHANGES FROM V3R2 TO 1.2. I HAVE A 96 MEGABYTE LINUX-SWAP SO HOPEFULLY THIS BUILD USES THAT BY DEFAULT...UNTIL JAC PUTS A CHANGE LOG OR SOMEONE TESTS HERO 1.2 THEN IT WOULD BE POINTLESS TO FLASH IT...SO SOMEONE PLS TELL ME...WHATS IN HERO 1.2

sorry for yelling...apparently thats the only way to get questions answered...
[G1 Android Development] Enmi:
281, JAC mentioned via twitter that other launcher apps don't work with this version yet... trust me, I've tried, too without any success. >.<

... Sadly, I'm afraid of testing out another release of hero, I've gone and switched to his latest 1.3JACxROM AOSP release.

People app and Dialer app... I miss you terribly. But the rom proved unusable when after attempting to hit home, and open up the dialer app, and add a phone number, the phone locked up on me... and wouldn't even take a phone call. In fact, the phone wouldn't respond at all until like 10 minutes later, when it began to ring uncontrollably for a few minutes. LOL

Even after a reboot, it was -way- and I mean -way- too unresponsive for normal, regular use. >.<

Far cry from the 2.7 releases, that's for sure. Even they were usable, but now I'm addicted to the speed that JACxRom brings me. XD Haha... sucks, I know. ^_^ Might try out Hero when I get my class 6 card, and stick with linux-swap. Compcache didn't help much in my case at all. XP

Is there a way to get titles of videos in the default player if not ill just dl meridan
[G1 Android Development] twistedumbrella:
I have an answer, but since you decided to bold, red, and cap your text for a stupid question instead of asking nicely... IGNORED
[G1 Android Development] jmdrizen:
This is covered in the FIRST post.

Next time, please read through bits, I appreciate that there is a lot on this thread, but not even to get through the FIRST page - Where changes are normally stated..??

Please avoid the red, bold, caps in future...
[G1 Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Stand alone launcher apps do work. What doesn't work is a launcher from another build. The .odex files from other builds tend to be incompatible with the boot.img (Causing the boot loop people "CANT UNDERSTAND, IT WORKED BEFORE")

It's the same reason sometimes apps from a previous build dont work in a new one. The app itself may, but the odex file doesnt and since launcher has been removed, you aren't able to just add the apk. There are no dex files in it, so it would crash on its own.
[G1 Android Development] :
use open home, thats what i do and also apply the hero there it looks just like rosie
[G1 Android Development] kelvin216:
Great job on the rom guys but y cant i get my yahoo account working any help plz
[G1 Android Development] davec26:
I agree with the above quote abd to the guy writing in red bold lol look buddy you are not the only one here needing help we are not sat here waiting for people to post their problems . This is why we have a help thread avalable to allow users users with problems like yourself to ask a question. Posting in red just makes you look very rude . Now if you wanted to help yourself you would take the time to read twitter and their you will see this build is experimental hence its not going to be perfect . Please excuse my spelling lol but seriously bud ask a questin sit and wait for a reply or pm someone who may be able to help you .

just read the last few pages and i really want to upgrade from 2.73

but am i better off going to this 1.2 or going to the Drizzy v3r2. or are they the same thing.
[G1 Android Development] jinx10000:
Devs. Your last few releases have been unbelievable.

Please keep up the good work and ignore all the nonsense that keeps getting posted.
[G1 Android Development] darvo:
this has been aswered 10 000 times. maybe reading a few pages back and you would find an answer. but as i'm already wasting my time writing this, 1.2 is the most recent and is based on the same Hero as v3r2

EDIT: oh yeah you said you red a few pages... probably not enough... search button maybe?
[G1 Android Development] darvo:
with no rush at all... is gps fixed in 1.2? because 1.1 is running really smooth and I prefer waiting for this fix before upgrading.

thanks to all devs on this project!
[G1 Android Development] droiddv:
Hey Jac, I have a question, I have been trying to get the photo album widget from the HERO roms working in the non hero roms. Have you figured that out? I have yet to learn the the entire file structure of the HERO roms. Like how in general do you get the odex files to work in conjunction with the .apk files. Do I need to change the boot.img file to get the odex files to run properly.
[G1 Android Development] unnatural1:
Thanks! This worked great. Should be a sticky.
[G1 Android Development] BombaMyte:
I'm running JACxROM and just checked Market. Sure enough, it's not there.
[G1 Android Development] kelvin216:
Thank u jawash22 it worked great
[G1 Android Development] neok44:
based, yes. but are they EXACTLY the same. Cause i'm seeing a lot of problems with 1.2 but i haven't seen much of anything about v3r2
[G1 Android Development] andrews240:
I can confirm that GPS is working on 1.2. I tested it out today with Wisepilot, since I am taking a road trip tomorrow, and it worked perfectly. I didn't have a problem with GPS on 1.1 either, although I only tested it once in a static location.
[G1 Android Development] dr3as:
I fixed my loop issues, just let i loop for about a hour, watched some tv and took a shower, then everything is ok. Strange...
[G1 Android Development] theDante:
okay.. I'm going absolutely nuts!!!!

it pushes fine, but my widget is still transparent.

could you give me the weather.apk that worked for you??
[G1 Android Development] imfloflo:
Just try the 1.2 version and all are very good :)
[G1 Android Development] theDante:
I did.. and the weather widget (and calender) is still transparent... and only works if you have a dark background.
[G1 Android Development] darvo:
look dude, i'm sure you could have find that on your own if you had just a little patience. from reading just a little back in this forum, you would have find out that v3r2 came before 1.1, then 1.2. so it is obvious these are not the EXACT same thing, no? they don't have the same size nor checksum so it seems clear they are not.

you know, for people who like this ROM like me and religiously follow all the development on it, it is very frustrating to see all these answered questions all over again again and forever... just tired of these forums filled with the same problems by people not able to read and start from scratch when something goes wrong.
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
Which weather apk are you using??
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
I couldn't agree anymore.
[G1 Android Development] clownfart:
Hmm..just flashed 1.2 from CM..same APN settings and I can't download MMS pictures. They worked fine on CM..any ideas?

SMS works fine.
[G1 Android Development] theDante:
I've tried... 1.2, 1.1, 2.7.4, 2.7..... they all show up transparent... they were when I was running those roms.. but after 1.1 they show up that way. In an earlier post between 2 other people.. everyone said that its supposed to be "3D".. but it makes it hard/impossible to see if you have a light back ground.
[G1 Android Development] stopjockingme@gmail.com:
Waiting for more dummies to test out 1.2 .. I'm still on 3v2 :p
[G1 Android Development] notxel21:
No need to wait for dummies to test! 1.2 is legit!

I've been on it before it dropped and have no issues whatsoever! :cool:
[G1 Android Development] unnatural1:
stock widget

Has anyone successfully pushed the stock widget? I pulled the stock.apk, stock.odex, stockwidget.apk, and the stockwidget.odex from the orange build and pushed all the files to /system/sd/app_s then rebooted.

The widget is not there. Any ideas?
[G1 Android Development] stopjockingme@gmail.com:
Now this is what I wanted to hear. Ill give 1.2 a GO.. so far 3vr2 is super speedy, even after using it when the phone is in sleep mode for hours.
