if you put the DREAIMG.nbh on your phone via bootloader it will reset the radio and spl to stock and everything else will be stock so that you can return the phone as though you never did anything to it
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G-Fetus6:
sweet. i guess i cant fix my phone. good thing i only got it 3 days ago.

whats a good thing to tell them when returning my phone?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
if your phone is not messed up then there is no reason to return it. if you keep it at stock rc29 then it will update to 1.5 firmware within 72 hours supposedly or if you still want root follow these steps in this thread. this is the probably the most reliable way to root your phone, and since it is not as automated as some of the other threads, you might learn some things about your phone in the process http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=442480
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G-Fetus6:
well the thing is im stuck at the G1 boot screen.

and cant get it to do anything after that.

so i might as well save me time and just return it tomorrow
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
do you have a modified recovery image on the phone or were you able to get that far. if not just take it by where you got it and tell them you got an ota update then wouldn't boot up past the g1 screen
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G-Fetus6:
i got that it back to looking stock. so that is better if they try to do a hard reset for me.

yeah ill just tell them that an ota did it. cuz the phone is only 3 days old so im sure theyll say "oh yeah it must of been cupcake"

thanks

Does it have the same sms problem that other Hero roms have?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Haven't checked SMS, let me know.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Roy Jovero:
Downloading now. Can't turn down another Hero ROM.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] clegall:
reboot in loop
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] njakobs:
Wifi fails to turn off. Similar problem that Qtek had with v1.1 of his rom.

1st txt I got came through, will let you know how it goes over the next day...

Cheers
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Roy Jovero:
SMS works fine. WiFi fails to turn on or off for me. This ROM definitely feels fast though. Are there any plans on doing a CompCache version? As with the Qtek ROM, it gets slower and slower as time goes on.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Wi-fi works, but sometimes you will need to restart since it hangs, not ideal I know. It does work, I promise.

hi,

this rom only in wwe?

can i install without partition sd?

thanks evil
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bhav007:
format your ext2/ext3 as evil D described and it'll work. Some hero roms need a clean install.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] technocat:
any joy with bluetooth stereo on this? Getting ferd up with stock rom man, tried them all same problems no bluetooth audio with headsets.....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Roy_Drage:
Few things I've noticed so far, seems speedy enough, stable. But...

Wifi on/off does work but only after resetting the phone, too much hassle

no led charge lights

no auto-rotation in texts/email apps

Get these sorted and you could be on to something nice here.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bhav007:
Thanks for the feedback, I take is sms works as well as the one on the jacxhero port by loccy?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Sorry, I don't have bt to check. But, I didn't play around with it, so there are most likey problems. I will look into it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Thanks Roy. Will work on charge lights, but rotation works for me in mail apps, not messaging however.

Only tried sending a couple texts to my magic from another phone and they both came in so assume for now that it works.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] magpie2000k:
Before flashing, format your ext2/3.

how can i do this without linux guys
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Roy_Drage:
I just deleted the contents of my sd card, then put the update.zip on it.

Went into recovery mode as normal, wipe and then flash update.zip.

Worked a treat.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Draxter:
Can anyone tell me which languages there are for the UI and XT9 in this ROM? I don't want to be disappointed again with it being WWE only...

Thanks :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] napilopez:
Well I do have to apologize now... I'm having problems with SMS as well =[

It was fine when testing it out by sending myself mesages via aim msn and yahoo, but it seemed to only sporadically receive texts from my sister's blackberry, while she always recieved all of my texts. Hopefully this can be sorted out soon, this is my favorite ROM, but I just can't afford to not have reliable texting =[
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] napilopez:
No need to type anything, just go to advance settings, then "use swap partition" or something like that =P
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Are you using x4 or x5?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] napilopez:
x5 =P

Strange that I'm only not recieving messages from my sis' blackberry
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] shadowleo85:
well i can confirm it because im still having the same issue as before... only way i can recieve text is by opening the messaging app first... which i have never had to do... since i cant remember to constantly open the message app after every reboot or after every few hours.... dont know y im the only person having this issue i have repartitioned my sd 4 times and used a diff sd also... so im clueless as to y this is happening and its only on 1.75... im just gonna go back to 1.5 which worked fine... and i could load my own touch input apk...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::

Few questions....

Evil...how do you get flash to work? Or does it just not work? I cant get videos to play on standard youtube site or have no idea how to get HQ vids from the youtube app (if its there) What is the purpose of the java app? Would it be possible to fix the force close issue i have with the tmo myaccount app? possibly place the 2.0.2. version in your next release or just allow for a download from market? I cant even do that because it keeps saying "package not signed properly" and doesnt install. Thanks for your help and hard work! :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] trillside:
is anyone else having a problem with the wireless tether force closing on startup?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yipcanjo:
I would *really* love to get the updated Hero build from HTC, because "TouchFlo / Rosie" is obviously the hang-up here.

Loading up the 1.7x5 ROM and disabling TouchFlo is a very smooth, load-free experience. You also get the better HTC dialer, mail app, browser, calendar, and so on -- but all smooth.

Disabling the TouchFlo removes some other functionality, however -- like home icons that update (# next to messaging, etc.), some of the better HTC widgets, and the awesome look n' feel of TouchFlo.

Argh... smooth TouchFlo & proper bluetooth support in a Hero ROM. Is that too much to ask! ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] trillside:
lol well my TF is pretty dam smooth with a class 4 microSD. swap is 96MB and swappiness is 60.

The only hangups it has is when I turn my phone and on again. Other than that its pretty fast and smooth.

Still even though im not a bluetooth user I still understand how some of you really want that to work.

Sooooo sms still doesn't work on 3g? that will be problem then ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
1.8 is now up. Please test.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] l3wish:
Sweet. Just download ur last update and it works great on mytouch..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] trillside:
me personally i think the basics functions of the phone should be perfected first ( like sms, mms calling, etc., etc...) everything should be a afterthought until those are completly fixed

just my opinion
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fivestar0234:
look @ that nice t-mobile boot logo , looks so pretty
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] shadowleo85:
ill wait to test... i just got my phone back working... 1.5 works and i dont have the sms problem so ill wait till someone can confirm the sms works
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] trillside:
It works for me on 3g and everying!!!! But no mytouch is the same or used the same so try at ur own risk buddy
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bobdude5:
well im pretty sure if they were able to they would of done it already..theyre all trying theyre hardest to make our 192 ram phones run like a 288 so give them credit..and mine runs perfectly fine..very smooth no load screens no lag or anything...i have a 4gb class 6 sd card with a 96mb swap partition with swappiness set 40
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] napilopez:
My apologies for my comments before about the SMS issue. This time around everything seems to be working, I've asked three people to send me SMS', have rebooted, and have sent myself messages from MSN, AIM, Yahoo, and 3 online sources to make sure it works, and for now, everything SMS related is working =P. Except for auto-rotate of course, but I personally don't mind that.

Things overall seem snappier/smoother in this ROM, but I've yet to load it up with my usual homescreen items. My only gripe now is that I can't get get the clock+weather widget to work =[ At least not the weather part of it, it just looks blank. In fact, 1.7 was the only Hero ROM is was ever able to get the weather part of that widget to work on lol. I don't know why. Does 1.8 bring all the like HTC scenes? That worked for me in 1.7 but doesn't want to this time around, it just shows blank homescreens.

Anyways, thanks so much for your work eViL!

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] maikelgm:
how did u install bfs-304 into the evil v3x rom. help me please
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Boot into recovery and apply. Do not wipe.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] shizzyraw585:
Bro, this is quoted from the FIRST post, "BFS REPO - All are update patches. Just boot to recovery and flash, no wiping needed"
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mbrentjohnson:
Having issues...

After installing the new 3.x version, it ran nice and fast... no glitches(the few moments it ran before shutting it down). I then flashed the "patch"... and that is where my problems started. I fixed the uid/ext... and its running slower. When exiting an app it kicks me back to the "htc" screen then takes forever to load back up. Its sluggish... not sure what the issue is... but what do you suggest, evil?

Great looking ROM though!!! Love it, besides the minor issue.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] shizzyraw585:
Hey Evil,

I notice you are still sporting BFS 302. I was using that on an earlier build but was getting random reboots. Hows it working with 3X? It seems fast as hell with the BFS 300 it ships with but I'm starting with the reboots again. Tried disabling compache but still having an issue. Have you personally tried 304 yet? I tried the original one you posted last night but I couldn't get past the HTC screen (applied the patch over a fresh install after initial reboot.) Figured I'd see what others are saying about it before I try again, (I think I'm finally getting tired of flashing my phone twice a day :rolleyes:).

Also, when installing a new ROM is it sufficient to Wipe data/factory rest, Wipe SD:ext partition, Wiped SD:dalvik-cache, or is it best to format the card every time. I normally reformat but was wondering if I could save some time transferring everything back to the SD.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
This should fix it.

http://www.4shared.com/file/143057115/4bb8b804/BFS304_dexopt_patch.html
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Well, it seems every different build likes a different kernel. As with devices, it seems no device is made alike..... Right now, 304 is working pretty good, I have noticed that keeping wifi on though makes it go haywire. So, I only enable it when I absolutely need to. With no a2sd, you can just wipe, that's it. But, if you want to be safe, format the ext and cache. I would only reformat the card if you cannot get the ROM to boot fully.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
Dude, Sense has a new widget in there. I believe the Horoscope widget is what I noticed last night when I downloaded the system.img from the official RUU that HTC posted for Taiwan. :D

That update is looking solid man; it's huge in size...but the build number is impressive to say the least. It's a "3 series" build number, a major leap from where the 2.73 builds left off.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] 5[Strogino]:
Widgets HTC Horoscope and HTC News you may find in old Hero-port-ROM too. They aren't new
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
Updated build version, different device altogether, optimized and revamped = NEW!

So yeah, despite that being true...THOSE are both "new" to the Magic. :D

@Evil: I pulled them both from the RUU and Eugene's ROM he put together last night. I wanna' see if they will work with your's. I'll upload them shortly.

EDIT: Here's the widgets http://www.megaupload.com/?d=66NW8DO4 (Horoscope widget)

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Foo_Blyat:
well, after flashing the new kernal the rom didnt do any random reboots. worked awesome for a day, now every 10 mins i get the htc splash screen and everything reloads.... im sure its the low CC and LS values but unfortunatly evil and reign only answer questions they want too and skipped over mine asking how to up my partition values without using recovery or ubuntu because they both dont work.

anyways, just unrooted my phone because i have a plane to catch in 45 mins and i cant go out of state with a useless phone.

sorry evil, i have tried 100000 times/ways to get your rom stable on my device but it simply wont cooperate, its probably why unlockr took it off their preffered rom and dont even offer the download anymore. its not simply flash and play anymore.

if i dont sell the mytouch for a hero when i get home, ill give it one last attempt at partitioning the sd card with correct values and going back to 3.0 w/ a2sd

wifi?

Booted this last night applied the BFS 304. woke this morning to start "setting up" and experienced 4 random reboots and wifi wont turn on (get msg "unable to start wifi") any ideas? anyone else experience the wifi issue?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Foo_Blyat:
you got it all wrong, i was EXTREMELY greatful for all the work evil put in and all the help you have been providing for his rom, unfortunatly you guys expect everyone to have your knowledge and skill level and always repeat urselves over and over again instead of explaining things differently. heck, i even offered money to help me, not to mention went and purchased every app i was given for free just to help out a little.

i mean its not such a hard concept to grasp that maybe 4 people in this thread have a perfectly running evil hero rom where 50 others keep having the same issues and the same questions.

i have had what seems to be one problem this entire time, and instead of offering a solution to partition the sd card, you guys keep telling me to do more and more things and flash more and more kernals and roms.

i mean, props to you guys, but untill you get off your android high chair and dumb down your explanitations, not many people will successfully run this rom.

and i know i might have came off like a jerk in my previous post, but im the nicest guy you'll meet and honestly its just me being frustrated with the lack of new info on how to solve OLD issues, i mean before i can even get evils rom to load up u guys already added 15 new kernals and 100 new animations and widgets.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] shizzyraw585:
Hey eVil,

Just wondering, what knowledge/skill sets do you think are required to be a good dev? For example, do you need to familiar with a particular programming language (java, c++, assembly, etc). Do you need to be a Linux guru?

I only ask because I guess I have become a bit obsessed with this damn phone. Sometimes it's a pain in the ass to flash it over and over again, but I guess I realized in order to do tinker with it as much as I do, I must enjoy it! I was thinking about learning a language and thought what would be better than learning one that would allow me to give back to this great community. So, any tips for an aspiring dev?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
I might have a Wi-Fi fix somewhere on my PC. Gimme' a few minutes to track this file down and I'll upload. :D

EDIT: Here's the fix. Test this out and see if this resolves your issue. Otherwise, wipe and re-flash without the Sense patch. Or if you MUST have the Sense patch, flash that...then ALSO apply the BFS-304 kernel immediately after.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Foo_Blyat:
just put it this way

i am the bar, im your DUMB average joe consumer out there looking for a phone. just the run of the mill guys, no IT classes, no working at tmobile and at&t and apple or blackberry or etc. androids concept realed me in, i purchased the phone, but if i cant even use the one thing that made android so popular, that means most of everyone else wont be able to either. which means android will only be completely utilized by the 6 people on xda making and exchanging roms.

theres a reason 1/1000 people have an android phone and 1/3 have an iphone.

this is america, our whole soicety is unfortantly based on "buy it, use it, forget about it"

sorry i just happen to be the 2% on the forums that wanted to be open to trying android out and didnt come from hacking and jailbreaking phones for the past 4 years.

all i know is that the 4 buddies who have mt3gs, 2 have sold theirs and the other 2 keep bugging me everyday trying to find out if i got evils rom to work yet.

Well, I have tried BFS 300,304, 240b, and 230 in conjunction with 3x. So far the only one that hasn't given me any trouble is 230. And as you can imagine, there is a bit of a performance hit going all the way back to 230. I disabled compache, bumped LS up to 80, and have the CPU clocked to 384-528. I was really hopeful about 304 because from what I understand (which is usually completely wrong) is that it doesn't the memory hack, which is what I thought caused the phone to crash. Oh, well at least I don't think I'll be going back to 2.8, which is really saying something ;) .
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
I haven't had any rebooting issues with BFS-304 patched over 3.x at all. :D

The RAM hack was a likely suspect of the virtual memory crashes. It certainly did NO good for the device other than STEAL away the available visual resources. The random reboots and or "waking" issues are also caused by resource management applications...such as Task Managers that you might have set to "end task automatically". I don't install but 10-15 applications from the marketplace, because the rest are GARBAGE or resource hogs.

However, I'm currently using the BFS-230 kernel with Pulse animations. That's my preference. I could care less about the "fastest" and most updated multitasking BFS patch. If you enjoy reliability; stick with 230. There won't be that kind of stability until closer to "BFS-350"...trust me.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hitman4485:
ish happens boss. i remember 2 years ago (i think) when i bought the iphone. had it for about a month and was unable to unlock it because of my "inexperience" but i tried (with help & RESEARCH) and succeeded. patience is a virtue. do a little RESEARCH and im sure youll find your way. i started with a G1 and a HEROski rom now i have the MT3G with EVILs couldnt get it to work right at first but i did after some trial and error and RESEARCH. best of luck (sorry if i seem brash but there really isnt any reason to act like a jealous girlfriend because you question wasnt responded to. its most likely happened to everyone in this forum)

shizzyraw585, in order to do the things that go on in this forum, you need to be willing, ready minded and have ALOT of time. Not to mention the tools and contacts. I always say, I know a little about alot. Obviously more would help. But, that's why we have the forum and web. XDA has pretty much all you need. Just know, that you'll probably fail alot, get yelled at, called names and have threats on your life. If you can take criticism and turn it positive, you can succeed.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Make sure your sdcard has 3 partitions. fat32, ext2/3 and linux swap. Make the swap partition at least, IMO, 96mb.

Download a full ROM, not a patch and apply it in recovery mode.
