Fat32, EXT2, Linux Swap 192. Is that not correct? i know how to read directions. i've always had my SD set up correctly every time. Phones work great for a week then lag like crazy.

and i just read that link, but again nothing there really is about my issue. I take the battery out once a day and the ONLY thing that lags is the phone app and rosie. everything else works perfect and nice and fast.

Just annoying because in my opinion i should be able to install a rom and just leave it there without having to wipe my entire phone and put a rom back on and reinstall EVERYTHING I don't like having to do that every 2-3 weeks. I don't have time to spend a day redoing my phone every couple weeks when i have 5 days of school and a job.

hence why i've been trying to find one hero rom that just works with no issues and can work for longer than 2 weeks. I have respect for all the developers here but there are a lot of people like me that want to run hero and don't want any problems and don't want to have to wipe our phones every 2 weeks, thats a pain in the ass. especially when you only have one phone and you need to use it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Foo_Blyat:
i dont know what to tell you, once i partitioned my sd correctly i havent had a single problem with any rom.

i ran evils nano sense rom for almost 2 months without wiping untill eclair 2.1 came out and never had a single slow day.

not to mention, when i flash new roms i dont devote a whole day to the process, it takes 20 mins tops.

click download rom > while thats downloading

Wipe phone

rebuild partitions on SD

wipe phone

>by now download should be complete

put rom.zip onto sd

repair ext

flash

repair ext

reboot

bam, done.

skip install (on any rom)

let the phone settle on homescreen for 10 mins

go into settings menu and log into google and facebook

download all ur apps and widgets

setup the phone

turn off the phone, pull battery for 2 mins, reboot

your set to go for as long as you need.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] neok44:
the day is mostly the time it takes to reinsall all of ma apps (it's a lot) and then redo all the settings and stuff. Takes 2+ hours for me.

Idk, i went to cyanogen now. But i really love hero so much. How's eugenes eclair? ready to run for daily use yet?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ikando2on2:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xXReubenXx:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ikando2on2:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Shatterv2:

no bluetooth sound on ANY hero

Has anyone been able to get the bluetooth working on any hero rom?

Love those heros, but none NONE of them was ever given me successful sound via bluetooth. Can't live without it, can't live without hero...:mad:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] death1246:
I like version 3 best manly because the original boot screen sorry evil D and the black dial-pad any way to fix that?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] FantaPanta:
I just flashed v. 3s Final yesterday

and if the phone is booting, it frezzes

after a few seconds at the HTC by Evil D

screen and couple of seconds later it reboots

(again and again)

What's my fault ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sugardaddyz:
Partitioning Hero

I was following a video online to get the Hero 3s remix for my mytouch 3g, but for some reason when I turn off the phone and hold home+power, it does not give me the option to partition. Please Help.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cyitoh:
The boot is looping.

I used the Ubuntu method to partition.

I put the zip file onto the SD card, and flashed.

It gets to the part where the Android waves , and disappears, looks around, and disappears (with the HTC by evil D:), and it seems to stop for a second after a while. Then, it reboots.

Any suggestions?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Did you wipe your ext?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Infinite76:
does the BT work with this ROM? I dont need to do file transfer i just need normal pairing and use with a blue tooth ear piece for calls. Also i need Wi-fi and GPS and market to work fully. all with the Sense goodness on a 1.6 platform. Stable for everyday, hardcore use.

Is this the ROM for me?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sutiban:
No it is not as this is Sense UI paired with Android 1.5.

Also bluetooth doesn't work unless you play with the radio. Wifi and GPS do however work. :-)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] norazi:
Just installed 3s final onto my 32b (with amon ra 1.6 recovery).. Im pretty new to android and did a lot of reading to get this far and just want some confirmations.

8gb microsd class6

swap/ext3/fat = 288mb/512mb/rest (this sound pretty good?)

I created the partitions via the recovery screen (and converted ext2-ext3) and then loaded the evilhero rom via update.zip from the microSD... The first boot was INCREDIBLY slow (possibly more than 5minutes) and overall the experience is not as snappy as I expected. Even the subsequent reboots take a LOOONG time (the robot animated screen in particular lasts a long time) so I am wondering if I left out a step or if my partitions are wrong.

Can I change the partitions via recovery again or will I have to reload the ROM every time I make changes to the partitions?

What does the move apps/swap to SD command in recovery do? Do I need to do this more than once?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
I know of this.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fridlack:
Just instaled 1.9... coming from 1.7, it's runs so smooth and fast!

Need to push gmail and vending from other rom to set it in spanish but was great anyway :)

Thanks for this great work!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yipcanjo:
So, I've been testing out the 1.9 for most of the day. A *very* good ROM, as are all of the eViL ROMs, in my opinion. Still, a strange "slowness" that crops up quite frequently on my MT3G. Have an 8GB "class 6" with 96meg swap / 40 swappiness. CPU set to 528max / 384min. Don't know what the deal is. Also, I'm not a huge fan of the new "white" keyboard. Easy enough to change back?

All that said, a beautiful ROM.

On a whim, however, I tried out a relative "unknown" ROM to me -- the ZeroXd Platinum 4.5....

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=548442

Crazy! Without a doubt, the fastest Hero ROM I've used -- which is plenty. Generally pulls apps up faster, moves around the screens more smoothly, and has a "pep" that I've not seen with a Hero ROM yet. Also has a transparent minimized drawer that is very cool. I do *not* like the bootup screen or cartoon graphics. I also prefer the translucent "lock" screen from the eViL ROM. It just looks better. Lastly, this ROM is using the "white" keyboard as well, which just doesn't look as good.

Anyhow... could some others check this ROM out and give some feedback? This might be a good base for upcoming eViL ROMs...

Yip
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fridlack:
Hi eViL! find a little bug... autorotation in sms dont work :( Normaly i use it in horizontal when i write... (

Hope you will fix it soon :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] gaprince:
im having a problem recieving calls. my ringtone wont kick in until the fifth ring and thats usually the last ring b4 the voicemail comes on
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] shadowleo85:
do a lil research... this is a problem with all the hero roms... having late ringers... i use shuffetones which speeds it up a lil mine normally starts ringing on the second ring... check it... everyone is hard at work trying to get this to run exactly like the htc hero... give it time
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Not a bug, it was removed due to some not receiving sms. I will change sms again in the next build, however.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ^iCemaN:
so far i have been using eViL's 1.9 and noticed it to smoother than Haykuro Elite...I use swapper as well with setcpu. I noticed that after i do heavy browsing i get the htc load screen...and also slow when pulling down messages from notifications tab on top.

i was hoping that on the next version it would be more optimized...because Haykuro's 30% optimized still is not that effective...

so far i am happy with eViL's rom...i really appreciate all the hard work put into this...as a matter of fact...i am learning how to tinker with the roms but very very very hard and confusing!!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yipcanjo:
Seriously... someone please look at the ZeroXd Platinum 4.5 Hero ROM. It's unusually fast! I don't know what the trick is, but something is working well on that thing. The eViL ROM is still my all-around fav (stylistically, especially), but the ZeroXd is the fastest I've used.

What's the deal with it, folks???

(Note: the 4.5r1 went "blurry" on me, whereas the standard 4.5 did not)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Johnny Blaze:
we are looking at it but please stay on topic. I like both of the roms but i prefer to just read issues, improvements, etc with Evil's rom in this thread.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crxtasi:
Thank....please stop pushing other Dev's ROMs in another Dev's Tread! We saw your 1st post :p
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
ROM 2.0 is now online.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tazz9690:
do I have to run the swapper app, or does it do it automatically?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Linux swap and 30 swappiness by default. Use Swapper to make adjustments or verify settings.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fridlack:
where is Mms.apk? Which sms app are we using in 2.0?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yipcanjo:
My bad. I wasn't trying to get "off topic", but rather see if there's anything in the ZeroXd ROM that might help improve the eViL ROM, which I much prefer.

Anyhow, trying out the v2.0 ROM....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] can7:
is bluetooth working in 2.0 release? and the ringtone delay is that still there?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] 13bjunkie:
testing...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yipcanjo:
At the top of the thread, you say to "before flashing, format your ext2/3". Is that the "repair your ext2/ext3" option in the CyanogenMod 1.4 menu?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yipcanjo:
Stuck in the "HTC" screen animation loop after loading from the SD card. Have tried a few times now. Will re-download v2.0 and try again.

UPDATE: re-downloaded and tried again. Same result. Stuck at the HTC animation load screen :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] robotician:
Same here. I already have tried 3 times, but symptoms were same.

I have Japanese Magic.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] upsett3r:
I am stuck at the HTC boot logo as well. The vodaphone screen comes up and then it goes through the htc animation. It then appears to load past it, but just loops through the htc animation over and over again.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
For those with problems flashing, be sure that you format your ext2/3 partition. If that does not work, you will need to recreate all 3 again as there is a problem with your card. You can always try to format and then use fix.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] 13bjunkie:
didn't see mms.apk included
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Johnny Blaze:
It was removed. See op
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] 13bjunkie:
lol I missread that - (minus) sign

I guess it's time for some new glasses

I'll give Handcent a try for the time being.

MT3G install was flawless. Bloody quick on default settings.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] robotician:
Thanks for your answer, but I already have 3 partitions. Any way, I'll try as you mentioned.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ^iCemaN:
Let's try the 2.0....Hopefully this is going to be the fastest Rom out now...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Teleco25:
hello

same problem. I'm recreate all 3 again. the problem persists ..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tazz9690:
no problem flashing. I get the htc load screen if i stay in an app for too long though. Also, if I have the htc music widget on one of the seven screens, it crashes my phone. twitter was a little buggy too, but i think i managed to fix that.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] semm:
same problem here, keeps rebooting splash screen...tried to reformat ext2/3 and now i am stuck with a black screen not responding to anything
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vorach:
I don't receved sms , i can send it with v 2.0
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Newer version online. Hopefully it will resolve others problems.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vtecbros:
im running your v2x but your messaging widget is not there. would be nice if you put it back on.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
You're right.... if it's not one thing, it's another....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yipcanjo:
You're doing great work, man. Don't let us get you down... :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vorach:
Very faster ROM !!!!

Good job Evil D:

know i recieved all SMS thank's for the correctif.

Just one question : to upgrade for example 2.0 to 2.X i allways make a format of ext3

and wipe .

can i don't made it or not?

ci@o Vorach
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
I always advise a format.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vtecbros:
Its all good tho. Keep up the good work.

Your Rom is awesome.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kronosx1:
Great work on this. It's the Rom of choice here.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] androidpanda:
using swap? the right amount?

Hi,

I used some manual instructions to create a 512Mb ext partition, 64Mb swap partition and the rest FAT32 on my SDcard, prior to installing the HeRo v2x rom. But what I'd like to know is how the android OS knows to use the extra swap space. I also ran convert to ext3, but am not sure why?????

Performance is not quite as snappy as I'd like, and I wondered if there was some way to check whether the swap space is being used? On linux I would just type "free" and that would give me the answer.

Cheers, Jon
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yipcanjo:
Sadly, the v2x ROM gets stuck at the animation loop for me as well. :( Is this still happening for others too?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Type cat proc/swaps
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] androidpanda:
thanks!

Hi, thanks that worked a treat. One problem remaining: can't send sms. Any ideas?

Cheers,

Jon

Hey evil D: ...do you know or anticipate when the bug for unicode would be fixed? .....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
unicode bug?

What do you mean?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mykenyc:
eh evil you should try to develop a updater you update your hero roms very frequent
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yipcanjo:
Unbelievable! So now the eViL v1.9 ROM that *used* to work for me is stuck in the animation loop. What the heck is going on? Do I grab another SD card, format it, and try again?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Yes, try again. I've flashed many many times.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yipcanjo:
Hey, hey! I grabbed my original 4gig (Class 2) card, blew it away, and added the FAT32 + EXT2 + Linux-Swap partitions. Copied the v2xx ROM back over and loaded with no problem!

Now... let's kick the tires... :)

(p.s. -- thanks, eViL )

UPDATE: Interesting tidbit here. I used my slower 4gig SD card to test out the "wipe the card completely and re-load" theory. Worked fine, but I really wanted to be using the faster 8gig (class 6) SD card. I powered down, put in the 8gig card, and powered back up. Boot animation loop again -- and this after a successful ROM install using a different SD card. There is/was *something* on that 8gig SD card that it did not like. I'm having to copy my data off of the 8gig card, re-partition the whole thing, and reload the v2xx ROM again.

Not sure what to make of this yet, but it means that loading a new ROM is a longer process :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] BRAND1SH:
Awesome, awesome work D !

btw, my sms are sending fine, unless I shouldnt be trusting if it says sent ?

just checked, even though it says sent, I havent received replies, lol,, oh well, I'm sure you'll get to it soon enough.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tazz9690:
is the keyboard on this multi-touch enabled? I don't think I have seen a hero Rom with the htc keyboard able to do that.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dragonboyy3k:
the one that i mention in earlier post and u stated that you knew of it .. Basically it does not display Vietnamese font correctly like : it cannot display this sentence : "Anh em ta về đây, ***g sau sum vầy" ... all the accent are not properly displayed. .. Previous ROM to 1.6 work properly..but these update ROM does not ..please check on that for us
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
So you're saying 2xx does not do this? I believe I added that back.

I cant login into my google account when I flash v2xxx...I've tried reflashing and formatting the memory card but still no luck...if anyone can help?
