LOAD HERO ROM WITH SWAP

http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/17/how-to-load-hero-onto-your-mytouch-3g/

i wish this came out 3 days ago before i went through all the trouble of doing mine lol
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Howler62:
what does this have to do with the 32a in this thread? or am i missing something
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] daandman:
I was using the "Drizzy's V3 Full No Name Hero ROM" rom briefly & I switched back to this, but I really liked the fixed camera app. Can anybody help me get that onto this rom?

I tried pushing it on the same way I did the stocks app/widget, but it didn't work.

Here's what I did:

- copy HTCCamera.apk & HTCCamera.odex to tools folder

- adb remount

- adb push HTCCamera.apk /data/app_s/HTCCamera.apk

- adb push HTCCamera.odex /data/app_s/HTCCamera.odex

- adb shell reboot

Then it reboots & there's no change to the camera & I can't find the new camera anywhere.

What did I do wrong? Any help would be appreciated.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] elegos:
Try the JACxHEROski for 32A, I find that a lot faster than this :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rainabba:
Very much liking this ROM, but I do seem to be having one problem. I've choosen TouchFlo as the default home and each time I go to home, it seems to be reloading completely. Takes around 20 seconds. That behavior normal for this ROM? I need to do something different?

Sorry if this has already been answered, but I couldn't come up with a good search that revealed it if so.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Howler62:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ratchetjaw:

Anyone has the link to latest one of this? The link is broken :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] 4bia:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ElChouch:
Can't you read the topic title ?...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] 4bia:
so thats means can?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] daihiep:
Mate, he means that you have to read it. If you allready have and still asking, then he means read it again. :)

Go for MyHero, its also a great rom.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] d.m.s:
post latest rom on rapid or mega please
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] trident167:
Installed this ROM and works great so far with a few minor bugs. I can live with them except the Bluetooth. I know its an issue since day one and I wanted know if this ROM is done development since it looks like its slowly dying thread. Maybe all are on vacation...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
this was a port. it is long dead. there are more advanced and improved hero roms now. check the other ones in this forum. myhero is a good example of one for 32A.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] amjad_2020:
Hi

Do this rom have the new market like in the Donut 1.6 rom ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] trident167:
No its not. Only in 1.6.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ekie84:
i cant download the roms...maybe the link is broken
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] raymar23:
WOW

I think your trying to bring something back from the dead :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ekie84:
need help really badly

LOL...sory but i really need help...i want to root my magic 32a with perfect SPL and theres so mane rom to choose from....what hero rom should i download...could you put the link pls...thanks all
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
Hmm, Think I know why this isn't setting up automatically, just re read first post - he changed the boot.img, and therefore changed the kernel and init.rc etc.

The original JacHero uses the cyanogen kernel now, plus other tweaks, so now were back to the fatal1ty rom with a few tweaks.

Don't know where that leaves us long-term, but seeing as we now have working cyanogen ROM too perhaps a merger of the the efforts?

Would love a rom with speed from cyano kernel + hero interface :)

UPDATE:

Just flashed the boot.img from the NK02 Cyanogen rom, and it hangs before showing the hero logo, I didn't expect it to work but worth a shot :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] star1977:
thanks a million!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] funfobia:
This is a fantastic port and work fast on my A6161 Taiwan Magic (PVT32A).

But how come bluetooth A2DP is not working ???

I know HERO bluetooth is a mess but at least on fatal1ty build i can use bluetooth for A2DP and it work great (though headset is not working). Do we have any fix around on this? What should I pull from fatal1ty build and push into this one?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] star1977:
got it up and running.

so far so gd!

:D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:
I know thats why there is missing features from JACHero :( i will be trying to port the boot.img somehow, im not very expericned at this =P but im going to try my luck

Other than that i will repack the 32B version with the wlan.ko just to edit the main post.

thanks everyone,
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
There was a thread here the other day about using the stock dream ROMS on a Magic, and one that worked was JacHero but with no wifi.

Today, we have a port of cyanogen - I don't know if this uses the 'real' cyan kernel or another version.

Seems like we have all the parts to get a really great rom, but they're all a bit seperate at the moment.

Great job so far on this rom though, been using all day and still going great
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] TommyPickles:
For replication, can you please describe exactly the signing process?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
Could we just ask Cyan to build a wlan.ko for the sapphire hardware against his kernel? We could deal with the testing aspect
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] TommyPickles:
dazcox5181: its the same wlan.ko from pretty much any working Magic ROM that we'd be asking to include in the package. so they dont need to develop anything further.

But I like your thinking.

All we really need to do is ask that G1 ROM makers continue to create their awesome updates. The only extra thing we ask is that when they are done, simply replace the wlan.ko for G1 to a Magic version, package it up and sign it. Then upload it to a site. And thats it!

I say this because from our testing we have shown you dont need to modify the boot.img or anything else to make Hero or any other G1 ROM to work on Magic.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] star1977:
hi, i need the htcsync to work with this rom as i need to sync my contact from outlook. any idea how i can do it?

also, if i wanna install the stock widget, how to go about?

thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
Yeah, I was following that thread, but I thought that simply swapping the wlan.ko wouldn't work, as it has to be built against the kernel (at least thats how it works on my linux desktop)

Assuming the cyna build uses a custom kernel dont we need the matching module?

If it's as simple as that, why are we swapping boot.imgs to get this running (sorry, I'm probably missing the obvious)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:
Same here... from what I read I seems like we need replace boot.img.

If this is not true then I guess it will be as easy as changing the wlan module and resigning
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] timmy1980:
I have flashed this on my sparkling new 32A (32B wil be going on ebay!) today and all I can say is... WOW!

I don't know if it's the increased RAM of the 32A or the build itself, or more likely a combo of the two but this flies! NO loading what so ever, loads of widgets in use and hitting home from anywhere takes me straight back to Sense ui with no loading!!!

Thanks to JAC for the build in the first place and to k4r1m and all involved in getting this ported to the Magic.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
I've tried replacing the wlan.ko in the stock cyanogen, and stock JACHero roms, and it does not work (as expected)

We replace the boot.img to get us to a kernel we have a matching wlan.ko for, i think...

I've PM'd cyanogen to ask for it to be built, but I don't expect it'll happen - maybe someone could ask for us/build it?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:
Good stuff :)

I don't think the kernel is the only thing we need to port there is other stuff like the auto apps2sd that seems to be missing and I'm guessing that's because of the boot.img too.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kingchris:
i think all the beatitull nice things of this rom are in the boot.img ant that is the part which has been changed here .. -.-
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] star1977:
The camera seems to be bug in portrait mode.

Any solution?

Running on 32A Rom.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Roy_Drage:
The camera is still all messed up in 32B, just means we have to flip it around.

Also can everyone else check if they can rotate into landscape mode, even when writing messages and I flip the phone it still won't go into landscape!!??

Anyone else experience this or know why it may be doing it?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] timmy1980:
Rotate works fine for me, using a 32A. Just recieved a call and the other end said that I was really quiet though.. anyone noticed this?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
the boot.img contains the scripts for auto apps2sd etc, so yes thats what were missing
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Roy_Drage:
Just made a call and they said it was a little quiet, nothing to the point of them not being able to hear me though.

My auto-rotate works when flicking through pictures, I can rotate them them to landscape then. It also works fine while using the browser. Wonder why the sms messaging screen wont let me rotate?

Can someone else check to see if they can rotate to landscape while writing texts?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Wysie:
Hiya, don't mean to be rude but the rom's name is JACHeroski, since CCyrowski is involved as well :).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:
If you guys want I could change the camera app to a standard magic camera app

And as far as the audio issue I will see if I could get the fixes from the Fatal1ty hero Rom to work, if that doesn't work it could be something from the boot.img too.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] D3NNY:
im about to test this out now.....whats the speed like compared to the other hero roms (32B).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
Can confirm on rogers device, no auto rotate in text messaging.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Roy_Drage:
That would be good mate, the only good thing about the HTC camera is the zoom, but the fact its all the wrong way round makes me think we would be better with the simple Magic camera.

If you could do that a put out a 32B as well as 32A i'm sure everyone would appreciate it.

I still definitely think this ROM is a touch more stable and faster the fatal1tys one. It's a shame he not around, reckon he could do some great things with his Hero Rom.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mr.r9:
Definitely faster than the Fatality one, although not perfect but I am not an elitist. I think I'll keep an eye on this thread:D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Roy_Drage:
Well at least it's not just me then, and I'm on 32B!

The auto rotate does work when using the keyboard in the browser. As does rotating the web-page and flipping photos.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] D3NNY:
how much difference will having a swapper set up make?

thanks in advance.

also rotate on sms on vodafone uk also not working for me....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] r1tman:
If you are running Fatal1ty2787's boot.img for the port,

then the rom is going to be missing features,

which are in the original boot.img file ....

won't you miss atleast the following ?

* Enhanced ramdisk with auto EXT2/EXT3 mount

* Cyanogens Apps2SD with a2sd ran before user runtime starts

* Includes E2FSProgs for checking and converting Ext filesystems (Thanks Cyanogen!)

* Apps2SD is automatic. All you need is a second partition.

* Supports ext2/ext3 for Apps2SD

* Linux-Swap is automatic! All you need is a linux-swap partition (32MB~)

* fsck at boot (should stop FS corruption)

* TCP buffer changes

* PATH variable updates

* Calls to /data/init.rc /system/init.rc

-lucid already in /system/bin

-Framework optimized

-Linux-swap support
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Roy_Drage:
Also how on earth can I change the home screen wallpaper?

No matter what I choose from an album, even when it says it is saved as the Homescreen wallpaper it still shows the JACHero wallpaper!

Starting to find too many little niggling errors in this ROM. Shame really..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:
There is only 1 wallpaper in the rosie package for optimization...

Look at the first post there is a link to the optimize rosie thread which also has an optimized wallpaper zip... just put it in it as card
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] timmy1980:
Sorry my mistake, I thought you meant no auto rotate at all, I can't rotate while writing a text. Is this the build or the application itslef?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Roy_Drage:
There is auto-rotate, in everything except writing a text.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:
I'm Working on it =p
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
Create a folder called "wallpaper" on your sd card and select from there. Easy and simple.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MCoimbra:
Is this one better that myhero 8?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] star1977:
Hi k4r1m, is it possible to change the YouTube client to the magic default one as the original magic YouTubeclient support option to view in HD.

Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] maxon25:
good call! i found that out just now that i cant get the option to view in high quality with youtube clips
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:
I will make sure i do that for the next update... kinda of in the middle of uploading the files ~60% =P
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] D3NNY:
Eagerly awaiting this.......will you be uploading a 32B version or just 32A?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] star1977:
Ok, thanks! :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:
It's not that much ;[ but yeah check the first post i just finished uploading the files, 32A and 32B

* reverted the camera app to the standard one

* added voice dialer and AudioPara4 from rogers rom

* fixed no landscape issue in messaging by replacing it with the messaging app from Fatal1y's rom which seems to be twice smaller?

as far the boot.img stuff im still trying to learn how to port it...

edit: oh and yeah the 32B should have wifi working fine, not gonna make the same mistake twice =P
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] D3NNY:
Will test now :D

also what boot.img are you trying to port?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:
The JACHeroski which has the modified kernel, auto apps2sd and all of that other fun stuff..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] D3NNY:
Intresting.....looking forward to that if you find a way!

also ill be happy to test any early versions of it :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] star1977:
hi, can I know how to install apps in sd card since this has the apps2sd?

do i need to modify any setting?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] D3NNY:
auto apps2sd is not currently included in the boot.img beiing used at the moment...but it is still possible to manually set it up yourself(i think)...look at some guides in the dream forum.

RESULTS from rom update so far:

Wifi working.

rotates while composing message!!

3g signal fine.

not much lag when going to home screen.

so all in all good...will continue testing tomorrow.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bcrook:
To anyone who wants an alternative to Rapidshare/MegaUpload I have uploaded the 32A to my personal site. You can find the link here:

http://www.briancrook.ca/JACHeroski2.7.3-Magic32A_signed.zip

Not sure how much faster it'll be but at least there are no wait times :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] k4r1m:
Hm i know that bluetooth doesnt work but i heard someone say that on the Fatal1ty's hero you can get A2DP to work but in this rom it doesnt work, could someone confirm this please?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] funfobia:
Guess it just me who test A2DP function over bluetooth :-D.

I start out HERO from richyyun's fatal1ty port 1.2 A2DP work!

So far all build which use fatal1ty base image i've been flashing have a working A2DP.

So far i have Moto-S305 and Bluetrek Duo Stereo both working A2DP and AVRCP. it can connect as media and headset. Media is fully function while headset isn't.

On JACHero port, it can connect as media and headset but none of them work. only AVRCP work in media, no sound nothing.

I hope it's only a lib problem not a kernel so some expert can help me figure out how to fix this one.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
I just tried to use the NK02 Cyan port boot.img to boot his rom, as the NK02 boot.img uses the cyano kernel which should get back some of the optimisations, but it just hangs after the voda logo:(

Going to try and transplant the kernel into fatal1tys boot.img, and see what happens

HELP!

I can't unpack Fatal1tys boot.img, the script I have says theres a file after the ramdisk, and I'm not that good at hex editing to find it...

Anyone have the ramdisk from fatal1tys rom they could upload?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] maxon25:
anyone notice the JAChero rom seems to drain the battery?

is the new version of the JAChero rom ready to download yet?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ElChouch:
I've flashed it yesterday around 4pm with 100% battery, I'm now at 53%, so I'd say that it doesn't drain battery that much (regarding other roms).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] maxon25:
i fully charged my phone, hadn't used it and when i went to use it, the battery was below half way...

I'v read about people saying to get the phone to run faster with hero rom, is to close hero widget n stuff but i thought that the hero rom is all about the cool widgets, without them we might aswell go back to cupcake..... come to think about it, why are we trying to use hero rom with all its problems when cupcake runs like a dream and their is a new firmware update (donut) in august some time.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
I DID IT!!!

I don't know how this worked, or how it's been missed but I have got the FULL JACHeroSki 2.7.3 working on my 32B, with the original kernel and all its goodness:)

I just flashed the normal JACHeroski rom, then made one small change to the boot.img (rename init.trout.rc to init.sapphire.rc - Thanks NK02) repacked the boot.img (this failed yesterday due to dodgy osx cpio, now fixed :))

Flashed the boot.img in fastboot (fastboot flash boot boot1.img) and rebooted,

Loaded - WIFI & BLUETOOTH WORK :)

Heres the boot.img i used

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=R8OX15W1

If someone can test please? Sorry this is just for 32B
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] saquib:
Do we first install the JACHeroSki 2.7.3 rom (via update.zip) and then apply this boot image ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
Yes, install normal JACHERO rom (not the ported one the one straight from the dream forum) through recovery, reboot but GO STRAIGHT TO FASTBOOT (vol down + power)

Then flash the boot1.img I posted using fastboot flash boot boot1.img

Reboot

Enjoy :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] saquib:
Thanks. Couple of more questions:

1 - which recovery are you using ?

2 - how did you format the sd card for swap ?

Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
Can you repack the one for 32a boards? Would like to test. And when you say Bluetooth works , do you mean for calls, music and all?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
I think its the AmonRa recovery from the forum (nandroid backup and restore)

I used a live gparted usb stick to partition the sdcard, theres plenty of guides on here though

i have a fat32 partition, 512mb ext3, and 32mb linux-swap all used automatically (even picked up apps installed to sd from previous test)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
What change is needed for a 32A?

Sorry i only have a 32B, if it's just the wlan.ko flash and push it to phone, but from what i've read so far no one has a custom kernel that works on a 32A just yet
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] DarknessTM:
Lets get one for the Rogers phone.

Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
All i changed was the name of that one file, but the 32B and dream are pretty much identical... 32A may work if anyone wants to try it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
you never answered my ? about the bluetooth functionality? Calls, a2dp? which is working? Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ElChouch:
Bluetooth is working, wifi is not "enable to start wifi" (french translation ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
WIFI works,

Bluetooth turns on, and can scan devices, Bluez doesn't work, havent got my headset so cant test calls right now, and have no a2dp devices.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] maxon25:
where do i put the boot.img? at first i put it to the root of my sd card, turned off me phone held back and power buttons to get into fastboot, pressed vol down and power buttons, then some green tex came up which said no img.... have i put the boot.img in the wrong place?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jfive74:
Thanks. :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dazcox5181:
first you flash the full update.zip from the jacheroski thread in dream forum.

Then download my boot1.img to your computer (you need fastboot/adb utilities installed - if not get the sdk first)

Then reboot to fastboot (vol down + power)

wait a few sec for the text to clear then press the back button

Connect phone by usb - screen says fastboot usb

on computer in command prompt type fastboot flash boot boot1.img

it should say okay

reboot phone (menu button then power) and wait - first boot is slow
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] DarknessTM:
So far this is a fast rom. I don't use bluetooth so im good lol :) The only thing that sucks is that i have to always install all my apps all over.
