if this build got compcache then it would definitelly boost performance as no more need for swapper
[G1 Android Development] SolemnWishing:
Well, things are slowing down for me on this build, and I'm not even using TouchFLO. Music takes forever to load, and when playing it isn't smooth. What should my CPU be set at?
[G1 Android Development] sullitf:
Jacheroski roms now use cpu scaling, so no need to set the cpu yourself. If it is slowing down try restarting it and see if that works.

I noticed the same thing yesterday and tried to close everything in Advanced Task Manager. This actually caused a bunch of force closes and I couldn't make any phone calls. I was at the airport and didn't have time to deal with fixing it so I just wiped and flashed and all is well.

Admittedly, I just shut all but touchflo in the task manager. This used to work and still works with cyanogen, but it seemed like the hero rom wasn't able to reload everything automatically. My guess is I closed some services and processes that were swapped. The memory was freed but the phone was still trying to pull those processes from the swap partition and was force closing when the memory location held random garbage rather than the expected process.
[G1 Android Development] Dyonas:
OK, I'm putting this for anyone that is in a similar position to me - new to flashing and followed *almost* everything >_> I had a 128MB swap partition and it was awful at times. Then when I was reading carefully through the first page again I noticed this....

"DO NOT USE MORE THAN 32MB SWAP!!!"

I rebooted into the recovery console, changed it to 32MB and the difference is huge. It's on a par with stock Cupcake (for me) which probably means it's faster given the extra functions.
[G1 Android Development] Chance Ill:
even though these roms come with overclock preinstall, using a overclock widget only increases functionality. and no, it WILL NOT fry ur phone. im currently using SET-CPU at max-528 245. i also use task manager to terminate foreground programs.
[G1 Android Development] sullitf:
I experienced the same issues with a 128mb swap partition. I thought it'd be fine, swapper actually worked best with a 128mb swap file. I am now trying out a 64mb partition just to see how it works. So far I haven't had any issues (think its been about a day) with moderate to high usage. I'm going to give it another day or two to see how it works over a long period and then try out 32mb to compare.

The first time I flashed 2.7.3 I actually did use 32 and it was horribly slow after about an hour of use. Not sure why it ended up slowing down so much. I did spend the some of the time installing ~50 apps, 40ish from the market and the rest from my SD card. I also did some heavy browsing which could have built up a big cache, but I wouldn't expect that to have caused the issues I had. I went from no HTC/loading screens to having loading screens all over the place. Hopefully my next 32mb test won't have the same results, it seems to be working great for everyone else.

Oh, and I'm using a class 6 8GB card so its not the card that caused the problems
[G1 Android Development] takaok:
but... if i instal rosie.apk on memery of the phone?
[G1 Android Development] bigslanki:
let me guess you want improvements, i doubt id want to hear it. SMH
[G1 Android Development] Henchman:
I created a 64 mb swap file. No problems here.
[G1 Android Development] mykoe817:
Is anyone else having issues with auto orientation or is it already a known issue? Even when I flip open the screen, the screen does change.
[G1 Android Development] Do0zman:
The only issue that i have found is with SMS. Now before i get yelled at to go and use the search button, i have. This problem has not been mentioned. if you know of a fix please let me know or provide a link to where i can get the answer.

With that being said, my sms system is sending message to random people. for example i rcvd a message from a number i didn't have saved and it put it into threaded message that belonged to another phone#/Convo. I rebooted the phone deleted the thread and sent a message to the number that i still haven't saved. It sent the sms to the first phone book entry on my phone. and this is only when i receive sms from someone i don't have saved initially.

I saved the number that i got a message from rebooted again and started a new thread for sms i sent the message to that person and again it went to the first entry in the phone book not the intended person, there is not resemblance between to two contacts all info is different.

Please help me with this i love this rom and mainly use it because of the mms app and how it looks. i dont want to swap back to a cupcake rom.

Thank you

Do0zman
[G1 Android Development] Wii60:
You just scared me the frick away from this rom haha.

Hope you get it sorted out.
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
I've been running 64 and I personally feel it's better then 32.
[G1 Android Development] andrews240:
Just use the space bar to choose your word at any time after the word has been predicted. A space will automatically be added.

Sorry if you are referring to something different.
[G1 Android Development] clr822:
??????????????/

anyone know of a way to use motion wallpapers ie ones that will move while on home screen??? animated android walking???
[G1 Android Development] johnnylicious:
no. you can't not have moving/animated wallpapers.
[G1 Android Development] Daneshm90:
No Gif Support

Yea cuz im guessin those pics wud have to be GIF's...n those arent supported as of yet in the os.
[G1 Android Development] big nu:
what pics?
[G1 Android Development] Daneshm90:
Well the previous dude asked if we cud have animated wallpapers...those type of images are usually i gif format...n gif isnt supported from what i've heard...
[G1 Android Development] armoredraven:
Wow this is running pretty nicely. I've been running JACHero from the start, and it seems like things are really improving.

I was wondering if I placed my own apk's in the Data/App folder where the Tether app is, would those apps be installed with the update? I didn't bother trying this time haha. Thanks
[G1 Android Development] big nu:
which rom are you running?

2.73?
[G1 Android Development] Dyonas:
I might be wrong in adding to this but I believe the issue happens when the word you want isn't the highlighted word. If you tap to select it then only the word is added, no space. If you're used to it being the same way I am (Cupcake mainly) it automatically inserts a space no matter where it is in the suggestion list.
[G1 Android Development] Daneshm90:
What swapper settings u guys are runnin on 2.7.3??? im on 64mb and 10 swappiness
[G1 Android Development] byebyeloser:
I dont use swapper, the new rom sets up linux-swap.

PS this page cannot be displayed :-P
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
definitely set up the 3rd partition in place of using the swapper app. youll see an increase in performance and battery life (at least i did)
[G1 Android Development] Daneshm90:
Oh lol i have tht setup....did swapper as well ahaha to see if ne speed increase...guess not
[G1 Android Development] nolimit78:
Massive lol sir!
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
yeah dont use it and dont bother overclocking either...
[G1 Android Development] Chance Ill:
u could purchase better keyboard from the market. it spaces words automatically
[G1 Android Development] brian_v3ntura:
i need help installing 2.7.3

as the title says i need help installing it... i am running 2.7.1 now for abt 4 days.

i downloaded the 2.7.3.. put it on sd. renamed it update. and went into recovery via home+power. btw my card is partitioned exactly the way it says it should with fat32,ext3,and linux-swap. i checked my filesystems. everything is okay.. then i wipe and then update...but whenever i start the update it says ABORTED. =\ and i made sure i didnt push anything but HOME to start the process.

am i missing sumthing? yes i had the recovery,radio,and spl pre installed for my 2.7.1 do i have to re-install beforeloading up 2.7.3? help greatly appreciated.. and i did try to install the slow sd version and aand regular sym/band.

i run on tmobile usa.
[G1 Android Development] Dyonas:
I can live with it :P I was just adding what I thought the original poster was talking about. It's just inconsistent having to insert a space in one situation and not having to insert one for another situation. That, I think, is the issue.

*strokes beard thoughtfully*

I could be totally wrong though :)
[G1 Android Development] tmac12:
Is anybody else still having text messaging issues the timestamps on mine have been really messed up lately.
[G1 Android Development] Chance Ill:
try downloading 2.7.3 again, rename, apply to sdcard. u know the rest........
[G1 Android Development] mcfly015:
Make sure the update is at the top of the sd card
[G1 Android Development] DroidHead:
Darn, ... everything runs great then the process system forcecloses and i have to reboot.... whole system runs slow then will get better only to do it again.

Im on 2.7.3
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
i deleted twitter and widget and now want them back. can i just put them in my sd from the 2.7 file and then use a package installer?
[G1 Android Development] Chance Ill:
yes. rip the apk from 2.7 then place on sdcard
[G1 Android Development] njuncos:
probably, but a lot quicker to use ADB to push the files to the appropriate locations
[G1 Android Development] Chance Ill:
do u have ur sdcard partitioned correctly?
[G1 Android Development] Daneshm90:
Hey guys is it just my phone or with hero the keyboard backlight stays on as long as the screen is on ?
[G1 Android Development] Chance Ill:
i believe back light is on by default. u can disable it by going to setting/sound & display
[G1 Android Development] IOmega666:
how do i install swapper ?
[G1 Android Development] Chance Ill:
download it from the market
[G1 Android Development] DroidHead:
Yes, I have Fat32, ext3, and linux_swap....
[G1 Android Development] Chance Ill:
are the sizes of the linux swap correct? if so, and everything is correct, re flash. if all else fails, reformat ur sd card, recreate partitions, wipe the flash
[G1 Android Development] njuncos:
of course, don't install swapper with this ROM!!

Read the OP, use a linux-swap partition...much, much smoother IMHO
[G1 Android Development] DroidHead:
Have done all of the above. This aint my first rodeo... lol :)
[G1 Android Development] DMaverick50:
yeah ive never used adb, but it doesnt seem like anything could be faster than clicking and dragging right?
[G1 Android Development] Chance Ill:
maybe u should flash to a previous build. personally, i prefer 2.7 over 1,2 and 3.
[G1 Android Development] andrews240:
In which case, the scroll ball is your friend (scroll to you word > space bar). It would be cool if there was an option to change the behavior to space by default, but then sometimes you don't want a space added, like at the end of a sentence.
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
is there any feedback on the lite version... not many post regarding it...

might have to give it a flash in a few, and see how stable it is..
[G1 Android Development] 281:
Will we ever get LED...?
[G1 Android Development] prodigyweb:
oes anyone have the issue where they are on 3g and the browser is loading pages slower than edge loads pages? Everything else works wonderfully fast...

didnt see anything about this while doing a search sorry if it was answered...
[G1 Android Development] sullitf:
Well I think my 8GB class 6 SD card just got corrupted. I will explain exactly what happened below for those who are interested, but I think it could have had something to do with the swap partition. I have no hard facts to base this off of but wanted to throw this out there for everyone else. Hopefully the same thing will happen to others but if it does we need to keep up with it somehow and try to find a pattern.

Okay. I have been using hero roms since the first Haykuro leak. Once the Swapper app was released in the market I began using it and finding great benefits in it. I began using linux-swap partitions as soon as JAC added this functionality to his rom. Here is exactly what I experienced when my card died....

1) I was loading up the browser when my phone froze. I pulled the battery and rebooted, but after the initial G1 screen I would get stuck at a black screen, never seeing either of the boot screens.

2) I put the SD card in my linux machine, but no go. The card was not recognized at all, nothing mounted and it nothing showed up in my /dev directory.

3) I put the card in my Windows machine with no luck. The F: drive showed up in my computer but wouldn't open or format. It read the drive mapping but didn't actually recognize the card, it was listed with 0MB total space and refused to format, telling me there was no drive.

4) I put the card back in my phone and attempted to redo the card via recovery terminal. Parted did not recognize the card.

5) I put a Cyanogen rom on my stock 1GB card and wiped/flashed. After it booted up I put my 8GB back in the phone. It recognized the card and said it was damaged, but would not format it.

There are plenty of reasons the SD card could have been corrupted, but I should have been able to delete the partitions and reformat the card. Based on the timing of the card dying I believe the swap partition is what caused the error. It died while loading the browser, which is also the time that it would attempt to swap enough processes to free the ram needed for Browser.

If anyone knows a way to clean a card as corrupted as mine that would be greatly appreciated. For now I'm going to run Cyanogen since all I have is the 1GB card from T-Mobile.

I will PM Jac with this info just to let him know and see if he has any insight, but I wanted all users to know as well. By no means am I saying that Jac's rom or the swap partition caused this, these things happen. But on the off chance that the swap partition/swap file is what burned out my card, everyone should be aware in case it happens to others.
[G1 Android Development] r_dub:
This is like last on the list of priorites for the build if you really wan them there is a way to have them just do a search for LED DEBUGING FOR HERO and you should find how to do it that method makes them extreamly dim which is why most builds dont use it but if you cant live without it then use that
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
its weird that cyanogens rom wouldnt let you reformat the card when you put the sdcard in the slot..

make sure that you dont have a ext2 partition the sdcard when take out the sdcard...

i had the same problem before, but i had loaded virtududes rom on my backup sdcard, and then put the corrupted sdcard in and it gave me the option to format it... so give that a shot...
[G1 Android Development] sullitf:
I may try virtududes rom in a little while, but so far as I can tell the card is just completely dead. It is detected as being a card, but none of my computers recognize it at all. Linux does not add it to the /dev directory which means it can't see any partitions to remove. I have a feeling virtudude's rom is going to do the same thing as cyanogens, but i'll give it a shot.

It's like the card is just empty now, nothing can read it. The phone thinks that it reformatted it, but it then redetects the card as being damaged.
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
yeah thats how mine was...( i had 2 card crap out on me ), and I gave up...

then i flashed Virtududes rom, and said let me try something, put the card in and message came up saying the card wasnt formatted...

if you have paragon partition manager and a card reader, you should be able to delete the partiton ( it will show that its not complete ) but you should be able to rescue it with the g1 format ... try the first way i typed without paragon, then try the second way..
[G1 Android Development] poe11371:
I have a SanDisk 8gb class 6 card that I partitioned out with 32mb swap and all that but still find that the "slowSD" to be the best version of all the versions of the current build. Little to fc's or "htc wait screens" but still get some lag when going back to home.

Anyone else find this to be the case for them as well, or do I just have a worn out card and it usually runs fine with all the app_s moved to the sd?
[G1 Android Development] sullitf:
Well I just tried both Virtududes rom and Paragon, neither worked. Virtudude's rom did the same as cyanogen's. Kept telling me the drive was damaged and let me try to format, but it never did anything.

Just a warning to everyone, keep an eye on it and if your card dies report it to everyone else. I have no real reason to believe the swap was the absolute cause of the problem, so unless there are others that end up having the same problems I'm going to assume it was a random error. Things happen with memory cards, looks like I now have an excuse to get a new 16GB to replace the 8GB card that just died
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
so when you chose to format it on the g1 it didnt do nothing at all ???

the format doesnt take long... take the card out and put it in a card reader, right click on the drive for the sdcard, and go to drive properties, and choose check for errors
[G1 Android Development] h.nocturna:
I'm using the full apps2sd version and I get no FCs or HTC wait screens, maybe a 1sec delay when going back to the home screen, sometimes a little longer if I'm using browser, but most of the time, near instantaneous. The only time I saw TouchFLO load was when I finished set up and it loaded for the first time...
[G1 Android Development] sullitf:
Yeah, when I tell the G1 to format the card the format window will go away immediately and the Damaged card error will remain in the notification bar (or may actually reappear right away).

I tried everything I could think of on all OSes. Windows will see the F: drive after I plug the card reader in, but it won't open or format the card. Properties says there is 0Kb total memory, and telling it to check for errors does nothing (presumably because it doesn't actually see any memory on the card to check).

I've never actually seen a card die like this, its very strange. Its not a new card and hasn't given me any problems before.
[G1 Android Development] rpmccormick:
I have an 8GB Class 6 freshly formatted with 8000/8100/8132. I get the HTC-Home loading after I close almost any app and it takes about 60 seconds or more to become usable again.

Any suggestions?

I'm running 2.73 after a wipe and brand new partitioned 8GB C6 SD card
[G1 Android Development] bigslanki:
ive been using lite for first at 2.7.2 then at 2.7.3 the next day....no problems its fast. i dont really need rosie and prefer my home screen to rotate, thats why im using it.

here are my screen shots

Ive experienced that the app2sd DO NOT move to SD with this build for sum reason???anybodyelse?
[G1 Android Development] bigslanki:
let go of rosie.....and get the themed 2.7.3lite
[G1 Android Development] h.nocturna:
I think I might have had the same problem you had... how I fixed it was booting into G-Parted. Tho neither my phone nor windows could see it, G-Parted was able to. From there, i just reformatted, and set up all my partitions. Try that and let me know how that goes.

I would check if your swap is being used. Go into Terminal then type:

$su

#free

If you see any zeros in those lines, then your swap is not being used and is probably causing you to get those HTC-Home loading screen all the time as I almost never see it and mine runs fast. :D

Day 3 without my g hero.. god this is hell lol.. ehh only a few more days though till the other one comes ;] and i havent rooted in so effing long i forgot how to do it LOL uh the one im getting is coming with the ****cake update can i just use the DREA.nbh file i used to downgrade my old rc33 to downgrade that? or is there a diff .nbh I totally forgot how to do that. and i should be able to come straight from Jf's 1.5 adp to this right? i think thats what i did before lol ALSO my sd has all the partitions and what not i wont need to redo or delete them i should be able to just stick the sd into this new g1 and ill be ok? And just thought of something instead of having to do the old double sd trick when installing hay's spl cant we install radio, then spl then boot to recovery, and do this if we only have one sdcard and no sdcard reader? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=476403 and when it mounts through this is it gonna be like i regularly mounted through the phone? never tried it. Thanks ;]

which is the last jachero, btw, which used cyanogens .29er kernel?
[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
thats weird.. keep trying different ways.. try gparted also.. .and also try putting the sdcard into card reader while the pc is turned off, then boot up..

* also does the computer see that the card is full, and you just cant see the files ??

i might give the lite version a shot, i never use any of the htc widgets anyway... just want to be able to use flash when i want to while surfin the web..

i might give lite version a shot..

Anyone know where it is?

Thanks, Roy.
