Thanks Drizzy for all hard work, this rom is amazing.
[G1 Android Development] larryhi:
dang, i was about to flash 2.2... but i'd rather wait and get new release... I greatly appreciate all of your work.... by following you on twitter i can tell you dont get that much sleep, you are the man
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
it signs in to google "dont know why maybe sercurity purposes!"
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
thanks man! I get some sleep 3-4 hours is enough! plus I dont work anymore so yea, lots of free time!
[G1 Android Development] nuttyCreaToR:
Thanks drizzy, looking forward to this!

With reverted lock screen, do you also mean the hidden buttons (dial pad) on the sim unlock screen ?

Do you have any idea or estimate if it would be difficult and/or much work to fix the hardware keyboard issue on the home screen ?
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
didnt mean to blow up on you but everything has been answered already!

sorry man! I am very sorry!
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
the pin keys should be on already I fixed those on 2.2 also reverted old lock screen image is what I meant!
[G1 Android Development] Dror520:
K. thanks for the reply! I have another question :)

in the Hero development forum they said that the build number for the Orange Hero release is 1.76.61.3. But when I look at the Build Number in the phone it says 1.76.405.1, which is the WWE release. So my question is, is this rim using the Orange build?

thanks!
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
what is the hardware keyboard issue your having?????
[G1 Android Development] nuttyCreaToR:
Great! Thanks man! Can't wait to flash it :D
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
didnt use ,etc,permission, resources...mainly libs, apk's, and bins some other stuff"plus the orange is very similar to WWE almost Identical just different build numbers"
[G1 Android Development] Dror520:
thanks for the clarification! can't wait to flash the new rom?
[G1 Android Development] nuttyCreaToR:
When you keep your keyboard open and then go back to the home screen, it will always start loading the home app again (black screen, but no lock, the notification bar is still there etc.), without any real use because there's no landscape mode or something. And then, when you close the keyboard on the home screen, the same will happen again, So that's 2 times loading the home app (about 1 minute total).

If I close the keyboard just before going back to the home screen, all this doesn't happen. Then nothing has to reload or anything. It works just fine then.

I guess the home app (rosie) isn't prepared for these hardware keyboard opening/closing events ?

Some other guy reported a force close when these events happen on the home screen. I didn't get those luckily :) Allthough that wouldn't really matter also, because it would just reload the same way.
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
thanks man!
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
touchflo does not support landscape that is hy it wont show up when keyboard opened!
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
IM KINDA GOING FOR THE 3D LOOK...SORRY MAN MAYBE iLL CHANGE TOWARDS FUNAL RELEASE!

THATS IF MORE PEOPLE ASK TO REVERT IT TO STOCK!
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
guess 2.3 will be up soon lol. Ehh looks like im already getting a slowdown i might have to go back to JAChero 2.73.. :/.. or can you make a slow_SD version drizz?
[G1 Android Development] nuttyCreaToR:
Yes, I understand, but would it be possible to make touchflo ignore the event on the home screen ? Because now it takes a lot of loading time (and phone doesn't respond to anything during this loading) and I forget to close my keyboard all the time when going back to home screen. This results in my head hurting because of all the slapping of myself and saying "doh!" :)
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
2.2r2 out now check change-log!
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
sorry no landscape anytime soon!!! use launcher I just added on new update "first post"
[G1 Android Development] larryhi:
nice downloading it now
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
download android task manager. whenever i have the keyboard open and i accidently press home just drag down pull bar and go into the task manager. there i can just go right back to messages then close the keyboard then press home. saved me countless times now ;)
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
sorry no slow sd!

I just ask everyone to buy a new sd card thats is a class 6 sorry bro!
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
****ed me there lol mk. ill just live with this. i mean its not really bad just noticing the little speed downs thats all. like i ran free in the terminal and i had 107 buffers lol. usually its 64 :o
[G1 Android Development] brian_v3ntura:
just flashed rom

okay i just flashed drizzys rom from jachero 2.7.3

i want to say it runs faster,but since i was reading how fast it runs ands stuff it feels like my brain is now biased... i think i notice a speed difference but i am not sure. again it feel like i am now biased..

well my question is.. i JUST flashed the rom like 3 minutes ago.. are there and recommendations or ideas of what i should do next? i.e. optimization,speedboost, anything?

an also i would like to know the significant differences between drizzys 2.2 and jachero 2.7.3 if anyone could answer.
[G1 Android Development] jgu71424:
DRAKE

THANK YOU DRAKE MAN YOUR THE BOSS!!!!!!

sorry for using caps but i had to lol:p
[G1 Android Development] goldenarmZ:
Hmm.. This is fast. Good work drizzy. I think I'll port my not-very-finished-yet theme over to this. Have you tested this build with compcache?
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
thank you sir!!
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
yes I have and I have to say it lags it a lot within a couple hours! so far I have noticed no slow downs at all! but then again we all have different experiences
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
try using launcher see if it helps!
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
Okay everyone its late and I have to go but I will be back "sooner than later"

Man I am So Far Gone..... to make everybody happy, I think I would need a Clone...!!!
[G1 Android Development] nuttyCreaToR:
Drizzy, please don't be angry for this question, maybe it's a stupid question, or something you don't want to answer, but what do you personally think is the main reason for this ROM being so fast compared to other hero roms like jachero ? Does it use some other kind of caching or swapping, or is it because of optimization of the apk's or the kernel ? Or anything else maybe ? :)

Good luck with the moving btw! And thanks for your great work! Even when you are so busy you do all this great stuff!
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
I had JACHero roms optimized also... but that is confidential and to tell you that would mean I would have the same speed hero as everyone else!

and I don want the same hero as everybody else .... ;)

I can tell you that the kernel treats me well.....
[G1 Android Development] syphern:
you are...THE MAN!!
[G1 Android Development] brian_v3ntura:
i have a question for drizzy.. i just installed your 2.2 just minutes ago and then bam i see a 2.2r2... i was wondering do i still have to these steps again?

: boot into phone terminal and enter these:

(enter)

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

(enter)

# rm -rf /system/sd/*

(enter)

# reboot recovery

it was a pain the first time since i got sumthing likeits busy whenevr i typed the second line in.
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
no just wipe and flash no need to reformat ext
[G1 Android Development] nuttyCreaToR:
I understand, I understand :) Let's just call it black magic from now on then ok ? :D

Maybe you should change the name of the rom to Drizzy's Black Magic Hero rom ? ;)

Thanks so much for your black magic m8!!
[G1 Android Development] brian_v3ntura:
thx man i got frustrated when i got into bootloop the first time i tried flashing 2.2

but hey i jsut went onto ur twitter and saw:

Uploading 2.3

about 1 hour ago from HTC Peep

so does that mean i would see 2.3 when i wake up in abt 5 hrs?

if so whats new in it ? =)
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Lol Black Magic xD.

But i do second that. i still cant believe how fast this is and im using apps2sd on a stock 1gb sd. well im off to bed im not flashin r2 im using my own lockscreen nd im not gonna use the launcher so bleh. Gdnite everyone. You going hard in the paint on this Drizzy dont let me down. i might not listen to successful anymore LOL ;)
[G1 Android Development] Dror520:
Drizzy you did a great job with this rom!

If I want to change the lockscreen to the original, is there anyway to do that? Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] Dror520:
Sorry, double post
[G1 Android Development] maxld:
Just flashed 2.2r2 and I have weird feeling that 2.1r3 was much faster. I guess I'll stick to 2.1r3 for a while then.
[G1 Android Development] jamizzal:
eyyy drizzy gotta hand it to you major probs....this rom is insanely fast for hero and loving the theme on top of it real slick.... your the winner like drizzy em self
[G1 Android Development] nuttyCreaToR:
Thanks for this tip. I want to try it. Which app is this exactly ? Do you mean advanced task manager ? Or the app called exactly "task manager" ?

[EDIT] I just tried "task manager", it's very nice and has great user interface, and has functionality in the pull (notification) bar, but it slows down the whole system drastically.

Probably because it's monitoring and pulling information all the time. Oh well, just have to get used to closing keyboard before going back to home screen :)
[G1 Android Development] sacredsoul:
Does this have ext4 support?
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
not yet!!!!
[G1 Android Development] antwanp:
just loaded it on my phone, everything seems to be running smoothly! Enjoying the TouchFlo desktop widget (I missed them from Windows Mobile).

At first it seemed a bit slow, but I did a simple reboot and the speed was corrected! Can't wait for further updates!

Great work Drizzy!

-Antwan L.
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
thanks man! and I just got the touch pro and I love the 3d heh ;)
[G1 Android Development] goldenarmZ:
Back again.. Do you actually sleep..?!
[G1 Android Development] antwanp:
Gathering more ideas to implement? ;-)
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
Yea I just woke up!!
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
yes??? what do you have in mind?
[G1 Android Development] antwanp:
I can't think of anything right off the bat, but I would like (and I'm sure you're already working on this) to see some more optimizations. But since this is the HERO build, that may be harder than it may seem.

Keep up the good work!
[G1 Android Development] sacredsoul:
Ah. Thanks. Looking forward to it. :D
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
uploading 2.3
[G1 Android Development] bhilgeman:
Drizzy

Yesterday when I told you about this build being unusable because of the speed of it, I reformatted the ext3 partition and followed your instructions then flashed 2.2. There is definitely an improvement in speed after following those instructions and updating.

While I understand this is a new ROM and you are working hard to optimize it as much as possible, here is where I'm seeing some lag...

1) If I try to use the people widget that allows you to scroll through your favorite contacts, it hesitates for a few seconds or sometimes doesn't scroll at all...

2) Sometimes when I hit the home button it goes to the htc screen then shows a loading box for about 10 sec.

Will it be possible do you think to get this thing very speedy being a Hero ROM or is it not possible being a Hero ROM on a g1?

This is the first Hero ROM I've used so I have nothing to compare it to except the Cyanogen, Dudes, and JF ROMs I've used which are all cupcake based and very fast...

Keep up the great work and keep speediing this thing up. Each update has been great improvements. And keep staying up all night! Sleep is for the weak :)
[G1 Android Development] loftystew:
Woah... I'm on flashing spree... Thx man. :D Will give a feedback if there is any problem.
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
Why not? Explain
[G1 Android Development] bhilgeman:
Saw 2.3 in your my 4shared folder already. Downloading now :)

Can't wait to test!!! You da man!
[G1 Android Development] loftystew:
Hmmm... as for me I didn't have that problem, I added only about 5 contacts though. The HTC loading screen, yea did experience it at times (about 2-3 times a day) but not a lot, in short its bearable.

Even though drizzy said not to overclock but I find it faster when I do and don't experience any problem overclocking other than maybe, a shorter battery life?

I like the HTC email widget however it introduces more lag but I still can't bear to give it up. I simply love it.

Just my thought
[G1 Android Development] bhilgeman:
Ya i set overclock widget to 383 max and min anyways.. Seems to have helped. I'm gonna replace the people widget with contact shortcuts and see if that helps...

I use advanced task manager to kill the apps and that helps too
[G1 Android Development] MortICi:
Quick question Drizzy, if i wanted to go back to the standard looking (non 3d) albums/music/phone all i would need is the apk's from the latest hero build right?

Or were your packages optipng'd?

(The album app looks just plain bad with the 3d background, the mirror images are off, and the images don't sit on the 3d plane so it looks odd, the original bg for the album preview was better)

Besides that keep up the fantastic work, this is by far the best rom yet. Im working with Shafty to get the BT working, were almost there, just need to do some further debugging, I 'think' i know what is causing it to fail, i just can't figure out why.
[G1 Android Development] loftystew:
Nah I set it to 528 MHz max and 245 MHz min. The less widgets you have the, the faster it run.

Btw, does the swappiness level help or it is just a placebo effect? I've increased it from the originally 30 to 50 (which some others recommend). I feel it did speed some of the things up a bit. Maybe it just me and my mind.
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
PORT the apk from new hero release and framework clocks all widgets and apk, and the resource apk thats it oh yea and the lockscreen images
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
I havent optimized the people widget thats why also hero will load if your running some apk and press home in the middle of it "it will cause loading"

"AND YES THERE WILL BE A STABLE HERO ROM FOR THE G1 I PROMISE ALL OF YOU THAT ;)"
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
Do not run overclock okay everyone just leave it as is! Read first post
[G1 Android Development] goldenarmZ:
Drizzy can I make a request?

Can you put up (or just send to me :p) a completely unthemed build as well? As you know I'm working on my own theme and I want to make sure I'm basing it on the latest, fastest build, but I need some of the images you've changed or blanked out as a guideline... would make my life a hell of a lot easier. :D
[G1 Android Development] bhilgeman:
I need to update my signature. I'm not currently using swap or compcache since I switched to this build....

I'll play around with CPU settings, but Drizzy said he doesn't reccomend going over 383 because it can cause a lag at 528.. Why is that Drizzy?

Just saw your post about overclocking... Are you saying don't because it messes things up or just causes lag or you just want reports back without CPU changes?
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
a no theme Hero aww man! lol ill up it and post for those who do not want theme but will be up in an hour or so okay
[G1 Android Development] tinyaznboi:
whats the speed on this? could it be used daily with minimal issues? (lag/fc/loading)
[G1 Android Development] dav1boy:
wtheezy.. im still downloading v1 and now i see in the op there is about to be a v1r2 already? should i cancel my dl?
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:

[G1 Android Development] dav1boy:

[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:

[G1 Android Development] dav1boy:
let us know how this runs..
[G1 Android Development] doooshty:
Booting up now...I'll let you know how it goes.

Will post screens.

EDIT: Boot loop...time to wipe partitions I guess. Thought I could get away without it:p
[G1 Android Development] Diceman4:
Does the daproy kernel support compcache? I know since drizzy didnt mention it in the OP I would probably have to push the lib modules, but I am curious if any kernels except Cyanogen's support this yet...

Thanks!!
[G1 Android Development] Kino Joe:
It hangs at boot
[G1 Android Development] g2crx:
SU not working in Terminal
[G1 Android Development] h.nocturna:
It should, its just that no one else has re-compiled the modules for it yet. I *think*.
[G1 Android Development] :
bootloop :(
[G1 Android Development] g2crx:
Did you do a wipe and wipe your ext2/3?
[G1 Android Development] imbonez9:
Went into boot loop on V1 with the Hero logo. yes i wiped flash wiped. n then wiped flash, DL'ing V1r2
[G1 Android Development] imbonez9:
1st we have to wipe both?

2nd how do we wipe?
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
cpu settings are set to 383 maximum thats why so do not run overclock or compcache or swapper.apk
[G1 Android Development] MortICi:
Thank you sir!
[G1 Android Development] goldenarmZ:
You are truly a god among men. Thanks. :cool:
[G1 Android Development] Nismo300zx:
any speed increases from 2.2 to 2.3 ?
[G1 Android Development] bhilgeman:
ChangeLog on OP says yes :)
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
been testing for about 2 maybe 3 hours still no lag, response on apps quite quicker also seems smoother to my opinion of course it is what the community says!
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
I will upload a no hero theme in about an hour so just hold your troubles!
[G1 Android Development] Nismo300zx:
thanks...2.2 was runnin smooth as hell ...im flashin 2.3 now ...thanks for the hard work
[G1 Android Development] sacredsoul:
Whats the difference with new apps2sd? Downloading now :D
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
you are very welcome
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
I am so tired but will optimize apk's and post as soon as they are done

"I GUESS MY SIGNATURE NEED TO COME TO LIFE"
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
it is cyanogen first boot apps to sd, automatic and a lot better!
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
Hey Drizzy,

Question, I was getting google maps and dialer storage force closes on 2.2 and it would not boot up. I wiped, wiped again and again. I also cleaned my ext3 and then I got so frustrated I deleted my partitions and redid them. Any ideas why?
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
1.76.61.3 official hero running on our g1's ugh.....now we need to make it last and run better than on the actual hero device :p soon people soon!
[G1 Android Development] syphern:
ok thats it... thats it... i take back my you THE MAN comment... i now label you.. THE DON!!!!!!:D
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
after wip and formating ext you have to repair ext system this will clean out and reduce issues!
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
haha...nice guilty as charged lol JK thank you sir!
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
Yeah sorry I did that too...and I also downloaded the ROM twice thinking it was some kind error. I'll give 2.3 a shot and then let you know.
[G1 Android Development] bhilgeman:
Just flashed using CyanogenMod's new 1.4 and the update any .zip. Worked great except I didn't wipe and still had to go through the login process and now have to set up my phone again... Is that something to do with this update or is that with Cyan's new recovery?
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
thanks for the new update Drake! so far 2.2 its a keeper! backing up to test 2.3:)

Question for you; is it too much to ask to add the music player which include the "trim" option when selecting set song as ringtone?

Thanks a lot! BEST ROM EVER:D
[G1 Android Development] davec26:
What can i say .........Amazing it just keeps getting better and better thanks bud :cool:
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
i think I removed ringtone trimmer but will add on next update"I update hourly in some cases haha"
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
Kool! thanks a lot;)
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
cyanogens recovery is always a must"plus repairs ext also lets you flash any zp from sd card doesnt even have to be update.zip" any zip literally
[G1 Android Development] Zappza:
Hi!

I use Advanced Task Manager, and I usually add the processes that Hero relies on to the Exclude List. I have experimented a bit, but I am not sure exactly which processes should be excluded.

Could you please list the critical system processes and the other system processes? Perferably in seperate lists :)

This would be a great addition to your first post by the way!

Haven't tried your ROM before, but I figured I might give it a shot ;)
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
I will remove launcher for next release
[G1 Android Development] bhilgeman:
WHOA! Huge speed increase in 2.3. Now THIS is a daily user!! Keep em coming!

Nice work Drizzy!
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
thank you! i do my best
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
hey guys sorry but next update in a few hours gunna get some rest and please report bugs to my twitter!
[G1 Android Development] CPR123:
I just flash 2.3 and do su then free from terminal and saw that my swap partition = 0, is anyone else linux-swap not being utilize?
[G1 Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
didnt add swap suppport hah sorry!
[G1 Android Development] sacredsoul:
Oh man... 2.3r2 :D
[G1 Android Development] CPR123:
Thanks Drizzy and as always great work.
[G1 Android Development] maxisma:
Waiting for 2.3r2 :D
[G1 Android Development] goldenarmZ:
Get some sleep.. for god's sake.. lol
[G1 Android Development] Breakthecycle2:
Is there anyway to pull it from a previous build?
[G1 Android Development] notxel21:
I would also like to know this because all I'm getting is load screens.
[G1 Android Development] goldenarmZ:
Try this in terminal (haven't tried it yet but should work in theory):

su
mkswap /dev/block/mmcblk0p3
swapon /dev/block/mmcblk0p3

This probably wont persist across a reboot but should do you for now.

Edit: Confirmed, this works. need to su first.
[G1 Android Development] loftystew:
lol... I was wondering to myself "what happen to the swap? Did I make a mistake and goes to reformat the swap again." Still didn't work and start looking around for solution till I saw your post. :p
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
yep,

adb pull system/bin/a2sd <location>

adb shell

rm -r system/bin/a2sd

exit

open a2sd and add this lines:

#!/system/bin/sh

# Thanks to Denkai/Dwang

if [ -n /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 ];

then

mkswap /dev/block/mmcblk0p3;

fi;

if [ -e /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 ];

then

echo 35 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness;

swapon /dev/block/mmcblk0p3;

fi;

then adb push <a2sd> system/bin/

adb shell

reboot
[G1 Android Development] goldenarmZ:
Or that.. :cool:
[G1 Android Development] sacredsoul:
rm -r system/bin/a2sd

rm failed for system/bin/a2sd, Read-only file system

Any idea why? I already was in adb shell...
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
adb remount first:)

then adb shell
