i didnt made the rom by myself, just fixed the rom from the #1 post
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] maxon25:
Yeah i wiped and then just applied the JACHEROSKI_2_7_3-Magic32B-Ported update, didn't do any partition (because couldn't get it to work) and the rom seems to run perfect, only had alittle bit of lag now and again (but hey cupcake had that at times) flicking from screen to screen was smooth, when pressing home or back button, i didnt get a reload once, it just went back to the home screen no problem. the cam was still dodgy but if you want the cam to work fully just download camera zoom app and it works fine. As im a youtube fan, the only problem for me was you tube on this rom didn't have high quality option. Oh and the flash player wasn't that great. other then that it was spot on, widgets worked fine, phone was running smooth. So why have i gone back to cupcake? well it runs how it should, no problems, has everything i want. If i see a good rom and everyone seems happy with it, then id give it ago but for now i'll just read and wait.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] redmdc:

Is it just me that thinks that this Rom is just like pulling limbs off different carcasses to make a whole one? Ain't never trying this

I used Paragon to make the EXT3 partition but can you also use it to create the linux swap partition?

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] npw:
I concur, I had loads of problems with the Hero ROMs with lagging, and especially not receiving SMS which is obviously a big issue. Installed this version to my 32B Vodafone Magic and its been perfect since yesterday.

I first tried it without partitioning the SD Card and there was some lag. I then took the plunge and used partition manager to crete Ext2/Linux swap and it really makes a huge difference. Was a propoer hassle to sort but worth it, this ROM will be staying where it is.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kev30:
Forgive me for being a noob. But I've made my 3 partitions using ubuntu. Now should I use jan.lamp's revision or the OP's rom? Do I need to do anything else to make this rom more efficient? Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] npw:
I used the one from post 70 of this thread. Created the partitions in the right order, then installed the ROM. It sets everything up automatically by the looks of it, took a bit of time for it to build up the cache and all that on the partitions but now its steady eddy.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] paranoidpenguin:
Does the htc contacts-app working on this rom? Because with every other I have this android.process.acore forced close.

Maybe this is a problem with my gmail, but with acontacts everything works fine.

Anyway, does someone have a clue how to fix this, cause its really pissing me off. Everytime I reboot I have to reset my contacts.

Please help...

I created partition finaly.I was using Vista OS and getting "Device not found" error.I tried on XP everything was smooth.Except one, when i created third partition i can't set 32 mb on 2gb sd.so it has been set 298 mb.I don't know it will effect performance or not.I'm using my phone couple hours and everything is ok.Just toooooo little freezing sometime.

Can someone using this ROM tell me what the speed is like with all the HTC bits enabled compared to Fatalilty's ROM? Can touchflo be enabled or does it still cause Home to take an age to load?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] es_pirulo:
I'm grately surprised with this rom. It's absolutely fast compared with older hero ports. Removing weather and mail widgets is as fast as any other saphire roms.

Fantastic work. Congratulations!

P.S.: i've a class 2 card with 3 partitions...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] RYU1980:
Can't compare with Fatality.Cos this is faster more than Fatality.You can use TouchFlo always without freezing.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bpmorris:
Fantastic!

Hi All,

I have been running this ROM for the last few hours and cannot stop playing with it because it is so %$#% fast compaired the all the others I have tried and EVERYTHING so far is working. This is by far the fastest ROM I have tested todate running SenseUI. I have only had a SenseUI reload occur once but that was after disconnecting the USB from my laptop so I wont be too critical of that event. Before flashing this ROM I booted up Ubuntu with the live CD on my laptop and partitioned the following on the SD card. I know there are other ways to do this but as with anything, you go with what you know...

Fat32 - 9.7GB (Data partition)

Ext2 - 200MB (Dont know how to run apps off this yet)

Linux\Swap - 64MB (32MB is recommended, I was just generious)

My Testing so far....

Lag - Next to none!

WIFI - Working.

Exchange - Working.

Great Effort, I think this ROM will be the new benchmark, certainly for my phone.

Ben
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] stevetigersix:
Ben are you running the sence ui with the flip style clock with weather and peep, email and messaging and all widgets?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Xenn0X:
here i run fast with most widgets exept the email one. that one laggggss.

flip clock works nice, can switch screens smooth.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] npw:
Its running superbly on mine as well, the first Hero ROM which will stay on my device for longer than a few hours. The only one thing I have noticed is the bug in the camera app with portrait shots. Not really bothered myself, I might get round to adb pushing the old camera app in its place.

Ok. I may have to go find a paragon partition manager step by step, unless someone has a link, partition up my class4 8gig card and drop this rom on my 32bmagic, any tips
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] njakobs:
Super Fast

For those wanting to see how fast this rom is try 'BenchmarkPi' with past Hero roms and others I was hitting 16500ms tops. With this rom I am consistently hit 11500ms.

Fantastic work! Can't wait for the next addition.

Cheers
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] polloconchile:
any solution for my problem ¿ i download the zip of the 31# post that was fixed.

i make a wipe and then run update.zip . the phone freeze on the image that the droid say hello and reboot in loop. i have vodafone magic B

thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] npw:
Seriously, it doesn't need a step by step. I had a quick look for one but to no avail so decided to just do it without.

Just downloaded a copy of partition manager, started it up with my card plugged in.

Right click on the current memory card partition (not your hard drive :-) and select delete partition.

Then you can put your new partitions on. Right click the now unallocated space and create partition. This is very important - make sure it is set to primary partition and to format to FAT32. There is a space to set the size of the partition and to create additional partitions before and after (you'll see). It took me forever to get the right combo.

Top one (primary) should be the massive FAT32, then create the 500mb partition before it and the 32mb partition after it. Click OK and it will create the FAT32 and two unallocated spaces.

Select the top unallocated space and format partition, select Ext2 and click OK

Select the bottom unallocated space and format partition, select linux-swap and click OK.

then click apply at the top and it will do the rest.

Drop the update.zip on and flash. Voila!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] npw:
Awesome, thanks very much for getting hold of the link, I'll see how this goes tonight when I get out of work.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] maxon25:

If I already flashed the ROM from #31 without preparing those partitions before it - do I need to re-flash it again after this partitions process?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] maxon25:
Cheers dude! is your the full software or the demo and do i need to burn this to cd and then have it in the cd drive and restart windows or can i run it inside windows?

anyone notice that in the JACHEROSKI_2_7_3-Magic32B-Ported rom, google maps dosen't pin point exact where you are, its like few miles off even with gps on. with original rom (cupcake) the gps pin points where you are exactly.

can all this reflashing the phone mess it up over time? or start making it slow even with original cupcake rom restored?

(silly question maybe but just thought id ask) lol
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] lezperez:

To be honest I'm not sure, I did it just to be safe
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] npw:
I have the full versionm I'm assuming the demo limits some things?

Flashing should be fine over and over, wiping it first to get a fresh base is always good practice though.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kev30:
Thanks. I created the 3 partitions (Fat32,ext3,linux-swap - in that order). still had some lag but not that bad. i noticed that htc loading screen when i was playing music and exiting out to use sms. maybe i should give it a little more time to build up the cache?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] saquib:
Hi

What class of memory card are you using? I am currently using the one that came with the phone which I assume is class 2, but have ordered a class 6 8gb card. Will there be a big difference in performance?

I can confirm that bluetooth - at least with my in car bluetooth system - is not working. Its paired but cannot make or receive any calls. Stereo bluetooth is not working. Think its something to do with the hero rom itself thats causing the bluetooth to not work.

Swap question

Hi everyone,

Installed this new rom yesterday and thanksfully everything's fine so far.

Put Rogers camera instead. Great.

But one question remains:

I did three partition as mentionned in different thread.

Do I need to enable swap or is it automatic?

Using Swapper apk to check information about swap i can read:

Memory: 98328 KB

Used: 95680

Free: 2648

Swap: 10932

Used: 9460

Free: 1472

Is it normal automatic settings (I did not put Swap ON considering so far that swap function was automatic since partitions seem ok).

Can someone help me about this in order to get more fluidity (even if this is already fluid compared to other rom)?

Thank you.

PS Sorry I said one question but in reality there are several:)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] electricsheep:
All but bluetooth

Firstly I would like to praise all the fantastic work on this rom. I tried it last night and was amazed with its speed and stabilty.

This was the first Hero rom I had used and was a little worried on its performance.

Wifi, Exchange Outlook Sync and everything else I tested worked great. In fact I have not been able to get Outlook Sync working on my NKion rom.

I would happily stick with this rom if it wasnt for the bluetooth problem. Bluetooth starts fine and can connect happily to devices but unfortunately my in my in Car kit states there is no signal. Certainly never been an issue before.

Is the bluetooth component part of the kernel or has it been added by another package?

Thanks again and I look forward to the next versison.

:D
