Hi - just found this old thread via Google.

Is there any way to rotate the display to landscape on this emulator?

Any update for latest app?

i tried to load some apps that failed in the emulator so i think is because programmed with other sdk..
[Android Software Development] bagers:
Hi!

Could you please update this to 2.3?

There are some instructions to get Android 2.3 Emulator with Market enabeld.

http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/10004/accessing-android-market-from-android-sdk/

But it is very much to do and very complicated.

Would be great if you could create a portable / standalone version of it.

Thanks for sharing. B4 this i find it,and just using android out there that too complicated. Now just simple .exe nice

[Android Software Development] jahfry:
I just checked out BlueStacks. It is SO close to working for my needs, and I did file the appropriate ideas/bugs to see if they'll work on making it happen in the future.

However I still need to get my current project up and running (I am creating a way for our employees to demo a couple of android apps that require WiFi and display best in phone portrait layout).

Does anyone know of documentation that I can use to do something similar to the .exe in this thread (I can live without it being self-executing). Primarily need to package up an Android Emulator AVD with just the files from the SDK needed to run it.

Well sounds you need to start cooking yourself!

German ROMs have to be cooked. Look in the Dev and Hacking forum, there is a thread with all new released and language packs. Good luck cooking...

Or you can pay someone to cook a special ROM for ya...;)

In my next batch of ROMs that will be based on the latest available SYS at the time will have a super light version...They will be up later tonight (East Coast) or tomorrow in the AM.

They are based on the latest SYS build found in the dev section of XDA.

It might just be what you are looking for cause I am making the same thing for myself...

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigvedo:
I was wondering if there is one hero rom out there that is not slooooow. I tried bunch of them, jachero, drizy full and now I have drizy superlite which is working ok, just little lag when using browser and downside is that it doesnt have touchflo.

I'm using setcpu and swapper but every hero rom is so slow, like typing a message and then going back to the homescreen takes a good minute.

Also flash is horrible, flash video is not smooth at all. Even skyfire does flash video better.

I was just wondering if there is one truly smooth working hero rom out.

If not, then i'm going back to cupcake or a cynagon modified rom.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Reverend Gridlock:
Whoa one day and you realise that hero on the g1 is worthless, good job, all heros are slow and laggy, which is why I tried to steer you away from it but everybody wants to check it out for themselves. You can try a linux-swap partion of 96mb and a swapiness of 60, it will speed it up a bit but not all that much better. Go back to a cupcake rom that is meant for the phone and you will be much happier.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
if you want aesthetics you go for a hero rom. if you want performance you go for a cupcake build. really was this all that necessary. some people claim that they have a fast hero build and maybe with their exact set up they do have what they would consider a fast hero rom, but every phone acts differently. please stop making threads that ask basically the same question. I just typed "hero" into the search this forum option and it gave me 18 pages of threads.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Senorkabob:
Amen... Hero isnt meant to run on the G1, our hardware specs arent up to par to what it would take to smoothly run the basic OS, let alone Sense UI. From the reviews I've read even Hero isnt running the Hero rom as smoothly as it probably should.

And david... its kinda a catch 22... I agree there are way too many posts on the same crap... but I also think that no one wants to sit there for hours readign through 18 pages to find out whether or not their question has been answered. I think a major cleanup of these forums is extremely necessary.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
It's best not to use any CPU apps on Hero, the ROMs are already optimized for best CPU performance. So clocking to 528 will not only drain your battery faster but probably slow your phone down too.

Don't use swapper either. If you have a linux-swap partition (which you really should) it will automatically be utilized. It's best to keep it between 32-64mb. Don't go crazy and make it 96 or 128, because it won't make your phone any faster and has been known to cause "ghost" lag.

Yes, the Hero browser is slow as a *****. That's why I always push back the cupcake one, because it's useable and you can use the freakin' status bar.

I would wait for JacxHero 1.6r2. Apparently the kernels that have been cooked from the HTC source code that was released yesterday are blazing fast.

want to change the themes , is this possible?

or is there simply an option or software so that i can change the theme?

what do you mean by themes?? if you mean by what htc mean by changing your scene to a work play ect ect then all you need to do is

no, the htc hero sense interface doesn't work like, if your looking for themes you might what to try aHome, sweeter home ect ect ect they areuser interfaces that allow you to apply themes but I don't know how well that works on the hero. Personal I love the sense interface but have a little play with sense and do a little search both on here and on the inter-web to see how well other home replacement apps work on the hero

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ASK768:
First of all, welcome to the forums. Second, install the file found on this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=442712&page=114

Its basically graphics drivers that will also improve performance. The game should now work. If you are new to windows mobile and just so you know, the file is a .cab file that you copy over to your device. then, on the touch hd, go the file explorer and run the .cab file from there to install. You should restart your touch hd after installing. Look into custom ROMs if you want, as they usually come with added features like new versions of touch flow 3d and better performance (depending on which you choose). to do this, go to the ROM developement forum and there youll find a guide.

other good games include resco bubbles, resco snake, need for speed undercover (make sure its the gsensor version) and tiki towers. You have to buy all of these though.

Wecome to XDA

For available games which work on the HD, check out the following sections in the wiki

Games working on the Touch HD (A - Z)

For anything else, you'll need to use the search function.

As you are new to XDA, it would advantageous of you to read the forum rules and the wiki.

The mobile version of Facebook.com is not horrible, but has its own set of limitations. Your frustration is one I share as well. Maybe Facebook Lite, which is being developed for third-world, low-bandwidth countries will be a better match for mobile devices.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
Just an FYI, but it's largely a waste of time unless you happen to be a T-Mobile US customer since it doesn't work over cellular data for the more common protocols (AIM, MSN etc). If you are a T-Mobile US customer, it will "work" via a cellular connection, but does so using SMS messages - if you have any other carrier SIM, it will complain that it cannot read your phone number.

If you just want to use if over WiFi - it works fine.

There was a hacked version of this floating round the Dream forums some time ago that did allow proper cellular data instant messaging, but I've no idea what happened to it.

... to access their work mails on your phone?

If so, have you had the same problem. You can get in and see the mails in the inbox, but...... when you're on a PC accessing from outside, you have to double click on the emails to open, On the Hero, double clicking just brings it bigger and smaller, the trackball clicks don't work on it either.

Has anyone managed to get Debian running on the Hero (as per the instructions in the Dream forum?)

P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Dream_Team:
I tried but I'm stuck because ext2.ko needs to be compiled for the Hero (managed to boot debian IN recovery mode with the custom image but not under the stock hero cupcake) and I haven't really had the time to look how to do that.

Also, I had hard time installing debian because of weird sh behaviour (looks like it's also cupcake's fault) and needed to modify the install script so it uses busybox tools.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] paulobrien:
I was getting a fail on the 'modprobe ext2', because of the lack of kernel modules.

Chmod 4755 on the sdcard also fails because of the way it's mounted, you need to run the installer from somewhere else instead.

P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Dream_Team:
su <installer.sh does work, but sometimes chmod just says "Operation not permitted" and mount fails when using the stock utils on my phone, using busybox seems ok, and I belive that I'm rooted correctly, so I don't know why some chmod fail.

Can ext2.ko be compiled alone or does someone need to rebuild a brand new kernel for the hero ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] enlightener:
ext2, ext3 & other are compiled into the current hero kernel.

Have you tried to compile a kernel from the magic 32a sources that htc released? maybe it boots on hero too (i'll try today, if i have time)?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] paulobrien:
What does modprobe actually do?

I guess it's important, because when I try and start debian, it all dies horribly and reboots the device.

Not had time or inclination to really investigate yet!

P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] enlightener:
modprobe is a wrapper that calls insmod and rmmod(-r option).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Dream_Team:
modprobe loads a kernel module into the kernel using insmod

In this case, ext2 seems to be needed in order to mount debian.img (looks like it fails there, even if ext2 is compiled into the kernel). No idea about what makes mount fail, but I know that it works in recovery and doesn't in android

If you want to reseach a little about debian on the Hero, I suggest stripping out the reboot line in bootdeb, you will save a lot of time.

No, I didn't try to compile anything for the Hero personally, basically beacuse I have no clue about how to do so (yet)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] paulobrien:
OK so the normal mount command won't mount debian.img, but 'busybox mount' will.

Woohoo, success!

My doing 'rm /system/bin/mount' this makes 'bootdeb' use the busybox mount instead, and hey presto! :D

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] paulobrien:

P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] paulobrien:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] brampower:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Dream_Team:
Still fails here, no idea about what to do.

# busybox mount -o loop,noatime /sdcard/debian/debian.img /data/local/mnt

mount: mounting /sdcard/debian/debian.img on /data/local/mnt failed: No such file or directory

/sdcard/debian/debian.img and /data/local/mnt both exist, and this line works in recovery

Any idea ?

EDIT : Fixed it !

In bootdeb, I needed to replace "mknod /dev/loop2 b 7 0" with "mknod /dev/loop0 b 7 0"

Maybe I'll rebuild a debian zip ready for the hero with a proper install script, or even as an update.zip when I'll look into android customisation

BTW (offtopic) : I'm also really intrested in a stock android (like Cyanogen roms for the G1) with mods for the Hero (with Flac patches for example), and maybe donut ! I'll be glad to help if you need.

EDIT 2 : Also, I don't really like how the script is done. In a world of android multitasting, we only can run one debian shell at the time ?

My idea is easy to do (I think) :

- Don't make bootdeb run chroot directly

- Make a debshell script that will launch a debian shell

- Make a debshutdown script that shuts down debian and doesn't reboot the phone if you throw it arguments.

OR : Make a big debian script that parses the command line and do what the 3 different scripts do, and do like the classic bootdeb if no argument is providen

I hope I explained what I think well ;)
