seems the voicemail notification is stuck in chinese, though everything else is localized for me so far.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] TheMorpheus:
Yeah...Just booting!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
this problem has been affecting me for a long time now, it's not just from the new rom. some reason on wifi, data doesnt engage for mms. i message the dev of Handcent msg app, and they are working on an alternative fix for this problem.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zortoflaven:
Ive sent all kinds of picture messages on the old Rogers rom, though I dont know when the last one I sent was. I recieved one from someone this afternoon though with no issue.

edit - Seems I had network location on. With it off, I cant get a gps lock it seems. Hence the lack of icon I guess.

Bugs so far:

1) GPS

2) SMS Timestamp

3) MMS Sending

Thats it so far. Again, excellent work, Paul. Very fast and stable.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
there is not regular english touch input. i looked inside the rom and there's no HTC_IME.apk only the chinese input. there's no superuser apk either. also i cannot use adb. besides that, the phone is quick though. but we need adb to work.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
Paid app with market enabler works, as well as protected apps too. Can't switch to high quality video viewing when watching YouTube videos via browser or YouTube page. WiFi works. No forced closed, slight lag but that's normal. Good job.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Daneshm90:
Em we do have adb...also there is english input keyboard. Just change the settings. Even the handwriting accepts english characters.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] nanzhong:
Is anyone else having problems acquiring a data signal with 3.0?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
cool about the keyboard part but i still cannot get adb. says device not found everytime i try. i restored my backup and i get adb back fine. reflash hofo and no adb again. back to nandroid and adb is back...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Rede83:
Couple of issues I've noticed:

1. Peep (HTC Twitter) very slow to load when you launch the actual application. I tried turning off sync when loads, but that didnt have any impact.

2. Wallpaper quality is degraded when I create a custom wallpaper. I used a high resolution photo (>7 megapixels) and cropped it to the right proportions, but the resulting wallpaper looks like a photo that has been printed on a cheap inkjet printer. Color is off and there is a noticeable pixelation.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ichijin:
I think these "issues" are normal, because I'm still using the EVIL hero rom and i noticed these things also
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
adb working for me. using 1.6 sdk. few issues with root on phone. couldnt transfer or delete apps using root explorer.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Daneshm90:
Hey, its ur adb setup perhaps. Check in applications if u have debuging checked or not. If u still cant figure out whts wrong search for droid explorer and try tht.

Hmmm found my first bug. I cant mount the usb. It mounts for a second then dismounts....neone else have this ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] DrSpaceman:
Love it! Fast and seems quite stable. A couple of things, though:

- the calendar seems to think I'm in Taipei, and the only options I can find are taichung and kao-hsiung

- the camera makes a strange noise when it autofocuses. I'm not sure if this is a problem, but its definitely different from the previous hofo rom.

- the Rom as a whole is nice and fast, but there Is a significant amount of keyboard lag - its about half a second behind as I type this

- the keyboard is labeled 'touch Input chinese' but is typing in english
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] DrSpaceman:
Edit: Messaging ringtone issue was me being dumb - non issue.

Woah! Also, when I call someone and they pick up, the phone won't stop vibrating! Edit: that only happened the first time, it stopped vibrating when i called back the second time.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Daneshm90:
K the usb mounting thing was drivers on my computer's fault. False alarm.

Hmm looked inside the framework-res.apk....there does exist the png's for the gps icon status. So it has something to do with notifications (dev level stuff :)) Hope to c 3.0.1
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Daneshm90:
Hmm i c wht the previous poster was saying about adb not working. It works for a while then says "device offline" then i have to disable debugging and re-enable it. Then it works again for a while. BUG !!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Taknarosh:
Looks good!

Great work Paul!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zortoflaven:
adb seems to work OK for me. Removed some apps without issue. How long until it kicks out for you guys?

edit - I'm going to try pushing libgps.so from MyHero 1.1.3 to see if that resolves the issue. It was supposed to work for the new MyHero rom, so its worth a shot.

edit2 - Works! Remove the current libgps.so and replace it with the one in the MyHero 1.1.3 rom and you'll have your GPS back. I have attatched the file to make it easy :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ct809:
wow great work paul! im glad bluetooth is working now, but before i flash to this, i just want to re-confirm, GPS is NOT working?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zortoflaven:
See my last post. :)

edit - Anyone know if the MyHero SMS app has the timestamp bug? If not, might just be able to overwrite the current with it!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Phil_McRevis:
it has the bug... i don't think there's a fix for it yet.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] origins81:
Use chompsms, it does the trick and yeah myHero has the same issue

(Dont forget to turn off your default messaging notifications)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ct809:
One quick question, as i was flashing, this msg popped up

"Wrong digest:

system/lib/libgps.so

Verification failed"

what went wrong??

What i did was just copy the libgps.so you posted, and put it into the hofo300.zip file, renamed to update.zip and flashed it.

TIA
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] origins81:
Use these commands
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
I still had time stamp issue even when using chompsms, unless, you have to check the t-mobile thing.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] origins81:
Do you have your incoming texts pop up? If so then it displays the wrong time, even in chompsms. set quick reply popup on never and uncheck T-mob, works just fine after
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] DrSpaceman:
I think the timestamp issue remains even with chomp, but it matters less because chomp doesn't organize messages according to the timestamp. So the messages are shown in the proper order in chomp even though the timeframe is messed up
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] awtryau89:
Paul,

Does 3.0.0 have busybox. I use SU File Manager and it will not work any longer. I have been in touch with the developer and he has stated it is either a bad root (which I am almost sure is not the case) or Busybox is not installed. Thanks for any info.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
But I use the quick reply ;-), its the only reason I use the app. Lol.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
When I used root explorer, couldn't delete files in system. Was very buggy. What if we make Su unpermanent and then add super user app? Could that fix root access?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Taknarosh:
Flash Content in the browser is not working for me. If that's what you're referring to.

[Edit] BT Works good on music and calls (using a Sony BT Stereo Headset) youtube seemed a bit choppy will try again.

[Edit] On second try after wipe and reinstall BT on youtube is choppy.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] awtryau89:
Well after going back and forth with the developer of SU File Manager, we have determined that something is very wrong in the root. I see others talking about that as well. How can we fix this?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ma678:
GPS doesn't work for me. No icon or signal.

Timestamp issue exists in both HTC and ChopSMS.

HTC Sync doesn't work, either.

Anyway, a very nice try, Paul. Thank you.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Daneshm90:
Read a few posts above for the fix.

READ PEOPLE READ. :rolleyes:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] joseangel.alv:
Is it solved the issue with adb not working? If not, you can try to add:

persist.service.adb.enable=1

in the build.prop file

I've not tested it, because I'm not using this ROM. Sorry. Only an idea.

EDIT:

About the su issue... I don't know why this ROM has two su commands (one in bin directory, and another one in xbin), but I've seen an extrange thing:

in update-script you can read

set_perm 0 0 06755 SYSTEM:xbin/su

I don't know what those perms are... I think it must be

set_perm 0 0 04755 SYSTEM:xbin/su

Peace :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
Thanks. I will update the next release with this fix.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
Thanks for the heads up.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
Thank for all the feedback.

Here's a big reply to all the previous comments:

As far as the GPS is concerned, it will be fixed in the next update thanks to zortoflaven.

The timestamp issue should be fixed once we get a Rogers Sense update.

Will try to bring HQ Youtube video to next release.

There is English input. HTC_CIME has both. I will add more input options in the next release.

I will also start optimizing the performance.

As far as adb is concerned, update to the latest SDK.

HTC Sync has been removed intentionally. May I ask why some of you want it back?

Peep is slow, I will see what I can do to improve performance.

As far as the wallpaper issue is concerned, there's little that I can do.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
i am already on latest SDK still doesnt connect, but owell.

for wallpaper, download an app called "wallpaper set & save" it will set your wallpaper with high quality.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :No-Frost::
Only english and Chinese... I will wait for a Multilanguage one =P... Thanks anyway... Its a greate rom!!...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] joseangel.alv:
upsss... I think I've forgotten a lot of my knowledge about unix...

as I suppose you know, my idea about set_perm was wrong... I didn't remember that enabling SGID permissions also assigns SUID ones... sorry :)

EDIT:

And about HD youTube videos... have you tryed to change

ro.ril.hep = 1

to

ro.ril.hep = 0

in build.prop?

It makes you to lose the H mobile network icon (not the speed, only the icon) but it let you see HQ videos and run some TV apps
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] nanzhong:
Is it possible to revert back to 2.2.7's Chinese input? The new one is all traditional chinese and lacks the ability to enter Chinese using Pinyin.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ma678:
I need HTC Sync to sync all my Chinese contacts in Outlook with my Gmail account.

I tried to export all my Outlook contacts to a .csv file and imported to my Gmail account. All those in English characters are fine, while those in Chinese become wrong encodings.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xiutian:
My previous downloads from Market are not showing up. Contact, Calendar and Gmail are syncing correctly. Any idea why?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xiutian:
hmm..I can't download anything from Market, keeps saying items not found.

Edit: Just realised that I can't find Market Enabler in the app list. Can't figure out what's wrong though.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
OK, I will create an HTC Sync update for those who need it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] DrSpaceman:
I just found out that this version of the ROM lets me edit my yahoo fantasy teams, something the stock Rogers ROM and HoFo 2.7.5 couldn't handle. Very exciting!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xiutian:
Flashed back to 2.2.7 and the Market error is still there. Looks like it's a Google thing
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] lifeflayer:
Woo, my extended battery came the same day this rom got released. I've always found Sense based roms to be a little more power hungry and hopefully this battery will remedy that problem. Now that being said, this release is extremely fast and the WiFi signal strength is finally displayed correctly.

Just wondering, are the new HoFo roms be based on Sense from now on? Or will you still release the plain ones?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
Switching over to Sense, as every thing works on the Sense ROM now.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vjb:
Just wondering when are you going to release it....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] lifeflayer:
Awesome, glad to hear you are devoting all your cooking effort into one great ROM. I can't believe Sense can feel so fast though, now I just got to wait for Rogers to finally release the Sense update and fix all the remaining problems.

Edit: cant wait for the new update! i have been wanting hq youtube for quite some time now :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] homeiss:
Hey Paul,

I loaded up 3.0.0 tonight. Looking amazing!

After I had installed the rom, the first time I plugged in usb it rebooted my phone. Not sure what that was about. Have not had that problem again though.

Had the same problem with GPS as everyone, but a quick push of that libgps.so file to the phone corrected that. (thanks zortoflaven)

Everything seems solid to me. Does anyone know, is it possible to change the number of desktops? Seven is a little overkill for me. I could hardly fill three before.

Thanks for all your work Paul!

Cory
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] TheMorpheus:
Great work hotweiss, your rom is the only one it working almost everything!

Now we need a multilanguage rom!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
Added to the list:

1. fix su issue to permit proper root access. maybe keep it simple and use su app.

2. hq youtube works via youtube app and not in browser.

3. remove plurk, stocks, footprints

4. add market enabler, term, busybox, spare parts

great job, i admire your work and dedication.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bruor:
Issues I've noticed.

The 3g data connection didn't work OOB because no APN was configured. Used WIFI for initial setupa and manually added an APN and it's working great.

GPS icon doesn't show, but it works no problem.

If you are installing apps while searching for another, if a notification comes through it kicks you out of the keyboard input window completely. (not a big deal at all.)

This thing is freaking amazing. THANKS!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
Noticed that there is no camera sound when taking a picture.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] paulpenny:
Any clues as to what app/file is needed to add the compact qwerty keyboard option.

I tried installing the HTC_IME.apk from the MyHero Rom but I only got the qwerty option, which was already available under the CIME option.

Thanks

also installed the HTC_IME.odex and then long pressed in a text input box to get option to switch to english input. all working now.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Taknarosh:
Is anyone able load up any flash based content in the browser? I tried loading a flash based website and even HTC's website and the flash content isn't loading. It shows a hour glass then it doesn't load.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
This browser is surely different from past hero roms that I have tried. We may have sense but may not have all the features. Will try a few roms and see if there is a difference unless somebody can confirm. Maybe we can port browser and flash from another Rom.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zortoflaven:
About MMS:

They work fine when connect to the mobile network. On the old roms, when connected to wifi, it would connect to mobile to send the mms. On this rom, it doesn't.

Flash:

I've only tested one site, and it worked fine (www.dal.ca). The hourglass appeared, then the main flash animation ran just fine. I will test on other later.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ct809:
one thing, please dont get rid of the stocks app, as i think its important.

i noticed a bug in the stocks app tho, in the previous sense roms, whenever a stocks price drops, its supposed to be in red, and when it increases its supposed to be in green.

However it's reversed in this app. (green is drop, red is increase)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Howler62:
will try it out right now... same thing happened to me as someone earlier stated.. when i plug in usb reboots phone.. will probably only happen this one time
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bjareboy:
"You don't have to wipe" (3.0.1)

Is this the case even if I'm coming from an earlier release?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] d4ftpuNK:
does anyone else have problems with the fixed gps being inaccurate?

i stand outside my house and it give me a rhuge range of where im located and when it does find me within 100m it thinks im my neighbours accross the alley.

in previous hofo roms it finds me even when im inside my house accuratley.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Stratrix:
I think in TW, the stock colors are reversed.

but this is configurable within the application.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] lokto7:
Thanks hotweiss.

1. does 3.0.1 have CIME?

2. is Bluetooth fully working on audio as well as call function?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Howler62:
just as it states no wipe needed for 3.01
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Howler62:
My GPS has my location about a mile away.. but thats the way its always worked.. when i use wifi for location its correct tho.. but as far as icon go it works.. only prob with this is the old 4 hour sms timestamp.. hope its gone when we get a canadian updated RUU
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
1. Yes

2. Yes
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hotweiss:
You have to give it some time to get a sat fix. I'll test it out some more later on...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] frankinmerth:
fyi: the issue with the vibrate running for an entire phonecall is something I have seen as far back as the first hacked sense roms, and in most of the ones I've tried. I had it happen once or twice with nearly each of these roms so I suspect it may even happen on phones that ship with sense?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] seto_613:
3.0.1 has bluetooth issue. phone is normal but no audio. I'd tried re-connect my bt handset and re-boot. my bt handset is sonyDRC-BT15, no problem on 3.0.0 rom. Is this my problem??

adb is still not connected with the phone. i'd changed to connect with sdk 1.6r1.

^^---- solved. my mistakes (forgot update the adb driver)

gps works fine. boot time is faster then 3.0.0, and running more smooth than 3.0.0.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] d4ftpuNK:
SMS Time Fix

got fixed time stamp, new smsfixtimes app came out Oct 25, lets you choose how much time you want to change, changed mine to +4 hours and now works correctly (works with new hofo 3.0.0, havent flashed 3.0.1 yet)

http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-nathan-smsfixtimes-zipE.aspx
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] DrSpaceman:
Anyone else having problems syncing facebook contacts? It syncs some of them, but for some others it shows the loading screen (face with a spinning green circular bar) and but never finishes. Edit: it looks like this is just a sense ui problem, not specific to this ROM.

Another issue: sometimes my wifi gets stuck at 'turning off'. It never finishes turning off, can't turn on, and the only way I've found to adjust it is to reboot. I've tried going into settings -> wireless controls -> wifi but it's stuck there too. This never happened under 3.0.0, and has happened to me twice since I updated to 3.0.1
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] seto_613:
correct sms time stamp in 3.0.1, so no need to use this fix.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] djs1985:
3.0.1 definitely boots up faster! I cant believe how solid and fast this rom is! Thanks for the hard work Paul, I appreciate it.

My one question is, does anybody know if there is a way to get the full keyboard when texting in portrait mode. I get it when flipping to landscape but I cant for the life of me find in the settings to make it a full qwerty keyboard in portrait.

Thanks

Djs
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Tony_M:
Running 3.0.1 and everything but the GPS seems to be OK.

GPS icon now shows up but it can't get a lock on my location. It's like it's only using the network to locate me.

I waited 15 minutes, which is way more than it needed when I was using 2.2.7.

Thanks for the best Sense IU I've tried so far.

EDIT: GPS works after a wipe and reinstall.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] FirstNoobToBrickHisPhone:
Looks like I'll be using Hofo's Sense UI's from now on. Keep up the good work man.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sleepyghost:
Version 3.0.1

I updated from 2.2.7 and the phone process always died after the update to version 3.0.1. After wipe my data and applying the update another time everything worked. The only two things are:

I had to enter the APN settings from Sunrise (Switzerland), before it could read it from the sim card...

If I select «Data synchronization» -> «PC» I get «The application Settings (process com.android.setting) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.»

Bootscreen and UI looks great :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Howler62:
did you wipe then do 3.0 or just 3.01.. wipe isnt for 3.01 as it is just an update to 3.0
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
I definitely don't have the correct time stamps on my SMS messages with this ROM. Not that I'm complaining, the rest of the ROM is flawless!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zortoflaven:
The GPS works OK for me. Was taking a little longer to get a lock today, but I put that down to the weather.

edit - Going to flash to 3.0.1 now :)

Anyone have any more insight as to why MMS wont engage the mobile data to send when connected to WiFi?

edit2 - Update works great! Boot time is much faster. :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] skittleguy:
SMS bug is still there (obviously) but that SMSTimeFix app isn't working. Crap, it's the smoothest experience I've had otherwise.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zeotrope:
with 3.0.1 i have a few problems:

- time stamp in sms doesnt work correctly

- wifi breaks randomly, the problem im getting now is that when i go to turn wifi off, it just stays at the 'turning wifi off....' thing and never actually says its turned off, so i can't turn it back on

i should note that wifi worked for a while when i first flashed the rom, but seems to be randomly broken now
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zortoflaven:
Ah, I am also now experiencing this WiFi bug.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
Yeah, same here.
