Thanks man.

I'm not sure why people are having trouble with this. It cannot be a compatibility issue; or so I assume. The only Sprint issue that appears to be permanent at this point is that Sprint TV has official detection of non-customers. That will soon be fixed; hopefully...by none other than "KFC" over at DroidAppz. Quite a few groups of people are working on "cracking" that application to be completely usable for absolutely everyone on T-Mobile USA. :D

The only other suggestion that I have to offer people to have this Sprint People Widget function properly, or appear within the HTC Widgets section...is to unzip your ROM file; then RESIGN it with the replaced .apk file. :confused:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jabbawalkee:
I got it to work last night (People Widget) via messing around in Root Explorer, but today my luck hasn't been so good. I just tried pushing via ADB and its booting up now (just takes a bit longer than usual and after seeing mytouch boot screen theres a blackscreen and eventually the hero logo + boot noises comes up). We'll see!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
I tried 2 things and they didn't work. 1, pushing via ADB and 2, cooking it in the ROM. I'll try some other things later.

Need Help. Thanx in Advance

Im kinda new to Android. Ive been unlocking , jailbreaking iphones and Roms for Windows Mobile. So im not new to modding my phones. But i am new to Android. Can someone tell me if this is a good video for rooting MyTouch 3g.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBax1zu1bao&feature=related

Also is this the same instruction for the NEW EVIL v3.0 Rom? Im asking because he is doing it with the EVIL v2.7 Rom.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VltaAoixulE&NR=1

Thanx in Advance....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tazz9690:
this is the unlockr's 1 click root method. fastest and easiest way to get root access. when you flash you are doing the same thing, just flashing a newer rom. if you look on the unlockr's site http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/22/how-to-root-the-mytouch-3g-or-g1-in-one-click/ it gives you a video similar to it but with instructions right under the video so you get directions in two ways. hope this helps.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jmannyjr33:
Thank you so much Bro.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] M3TR1C:
I'd have to check on that with work. What about yahoo? Thats the one I really want. I'll get the info for exchange later.

MyTouch 3G (Fender Edition)

I'm going to buy the MT3G Fender Edition; which brings me to my question...

Can this ROM be ported to the 32A motherboard? Because the Fender MyTouch is going to offer 288MB of RAM, along with a 3.5mm headphone jack...and includes a 16GB SD card as well. Pretty sweet little package.

I can only imagine how well this ROM would run with that additional 100MB of RAM! This thing would FLY! :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
I didn't know it was going to be a 32A.... nice. I believe TigerTael has a kernel for it, check his thread.

Hrmm, Cliq, Fender MT3G, Behold II.......
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rgbc:
I've been running eViL's builds on 32a for a while using the MyHero 2.6.29 32a kernel, it is extremely quick & stable, as well Case_ and TigerTael both have kernel's specifically for eViL's builds.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
Indeed. It's the 32A motherboard version of the Magic. It won't be released until closer to the Christmas holiday though. Regardless; I already have the Cliq. I just sold my G1 last week, so now I'm going to sell the MyTouch I have currently and snag the MT3G Fender Edition! :D

I completely forgot about the kernels that Tiger, Case, and Radix have all compiled...sweet! Dude, Evil...imagine your build running with 288MB of RAM! Christmas can't come soon enough! Lol.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
Sprint's People Widget from Drizzy's build.

Here's the "same" .apk file from the Sprint Hero (Contacts widget) pulled directly from Drizzy's final Hero ROM series.

It functions perfectly on that ROM. It's the official version from the Sprint HTC Hero. It's much larger, cleaner finish, and easily accessible compared to the standard one we've come to know and love. LET'S MAKE THIS WORK FOLKS! :D

Evil; give this one a try as well. Same goes to all of you that downloaded the original one I posted a few days ago. TRY THIS ONE INSTEAD! ;)

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=OAJLNJ38

EDIT: Apparently, this ROM http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=574101 also has a "new Peep application" from HTC. Or perhaps an upgraded one. It's based on the 2.73.405.38 system dump from Paul @ MoDaCo! Evil; check that out as well.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
i am using the myhero113 rom from redglasses, and i pushed over drizzys final hero's twitter app & widget and it works fine. i think the twitter widget is also updated. has 2 sizes now. a full screen as before and a smaller one too. no force closing either.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Foo_Blyat:
well, after unrooting my phone and being really content with donut 1.6, i still had the urge to go back to evils hero rom.

i rerooted my phone using amon_ra's latest recovery image, did a system wipe, partitioned my sd to fat/ext2/swap, converted ext 2 to ext 3, pulled the battery, put evils hero rom w/ A2SD onto the sd card, rebooted into recovery, repaired ext filesystem, applied update.zip, repaired ext filesystem, and rebooted.

currently hero is running slower then ever. i dont understand why evils roms cant work properly right after flashing them.

not to mention i doubt A2SD is even working.

Evil, all your work is greatly appreciated, but how about making a quick tutorial on how to actually setup and run what you provide.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] missbutts85:
love the rom but........

i love this rom. its pretty fast. the home scrren taks a little whle to load sometimes but thats not a big deal. however, i'm trying to figure out how can i make it so im able to download apps from the android market?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fulei1979:
try fix_permissions script. usually the cause of this is you did not wipe your ext3.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] illmatic282:
i just installed this rom in my mytouch last nite. and i would have to say that this is the best hero rom, i have tried so far. very stable and fast. but the only problem is that the bluetooth doesn't work. but i was wondering if anyone has tried to put one of those blue tooth dongle adapters in their phone with the hero rom, and if it was able to pair and work with your headsets.? or are these dongles adapters just for tranfering files? have everyone been getting a lot more dropped calls? or is that just my phone? sorry for the noobie questions..

something like this

http://www.eforcity.com/pothxxxxad09.html

thanks again for a wonderful rom. only if the bluetooth work, this rom would be close to perfect..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rgbc:
One thing I forgot to mention, I don't use swap or apps2sd so I run my sd card as one 8GB fat32 partition with no problems at all.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Sometimes it takes awhile to initiate. Download over data, not wifi, if it still doesn't take, reboot and let it sit. Cancel any downloads and try again.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
i want to use the blur animations on my 32A hero rom. i was lookin through your update.zip for the animations patch, and am i right to say that all the animation are located only in framework-res.apk > res > anim directory? so i can pull this directory, overwrite it with stock anim directory and it should be good?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Yes, you can do that. Probably need to remount too.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
thanks. i am doing a backup now and testing it. i am going to overwrite the anim folder. throw the modded framework-res.apk back into the update.zip. resign and flash. it should work, as i did simliar things, *cross-fingers*
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
Have you had any luck pushing the "new" People widget? There's a few builds that have this by default. However, most of those are Sprint rebuilds, or the Magic "HTC Sense" dump. The widget is amazing. I love the full-screen look.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
The widget works, thanks. I might throw together a small update tomorrow. Let's see what I can come up with. :P
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
That's a bit of great news Evil. I'm glad to hear that it FINALLY worked out. So, I assume that it might have been an issue with the original file I posted. I take it you tried that second one I posted last night, huh? Or did you simply find the method of MAKING the widget cooperate? Do you mind me asking what it is you did exactly? I'm going to "copy and paste" that mini-tutorial and shoot it out to my Twitter followers. If you don't mind that is...

Thanks. :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
Here's what I was referring to by remove, and then push "via ADB" earlier folks:

adb remount

adb shell rm /system/app/htccontactwidgets.apk

adb shell rm /system/app/htccontactwidgets.odex

adb push htccontactwidgets.apk /system/app

(This is a rather simple process; as you can see.) :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
i havent tried it. i dont like the idea of having my contacts displayed on the homescreen, might accidently press it or who knows what, haha. same reason i dont use the msg/email widgets.

but i have seen pictures, the full screen look is definitely awesome! i did push over the Twitter widget and App you mentioned that had some changes which you mentioned, those worked fine too.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
Awesome! I figured they would work appropriately. Thus far, nothing from these "updated" dumps has caused too many problems or unusual logcat reads. Glad to see that others have taken interest in the latest developments. :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] resinous:
BFS REPO - All are update patches.

do i download all of them, or the one from the latest date?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Yeah, the second one worked right away.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Exactly.

Or

data/app_s/ either way really, it is symlinked.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
It's your choice. Choose which one you feel suits you needs. Some work well for others, some don't. You'll have to play with them.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jmannyjr33:
so to make this rom work on mytouch 3g, Do i follow theunlockr.com root instruction then the how to load a hero rom , a2sd also from theunlockr.com ?

Or do i need to do other procedures to make a smooth and fast?

Im a noob :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
Here's what you're in need of:

"Recovery Flasher"; which is essentially the "One-Click Root Method".

Assuming that you're MT3G didn't ship full of Donut goodness. Otherwise, yes...theunlockr can certainly be of some help.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
I've been trying to create a mixture of builds with your's.

It's not working out exactly as I planned. However; since the "HTC Sense" system dump from the Magic has arrived, perhaps something will finally start to progress with this, huh? :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Yeah, maybe working BT.....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jmannyjr33:
i know it says do not use terminal. But can i use "Phillip_Hoopers" Config App to partition fat32/ext3/swap?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Ok, I lied. Now I actually think I can say that is the final full build. 3x......
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
I think I might continue this progress if you decide to step down...

I'll definitely consider it if I have your permission. :D

This is great though Evil; glad to see you came back for this update.

EDIT: For clarification, can ALL of the patches, including animations be used on this build as well?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Yes, they will. I will email you soon so we can discuss things.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
BTW, guys, this kernel isn't the most stable, but its fast. You know what that means, a trip to the repo more likely than not.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tazz9690:
Hey eViL. Great work on the ROM. It is blazing fast for me. I am running 192MB swap and 100 swappiness and it just flies for me. I have a question though. I usually push some notification, ringtone, and alarm sounds into /system/media/audio through ADB. I do this instead of just making a "media" folder on my SD card because I don't get delayed sounds this way.

I type in adb push notifications /system/media/audio/notifications etc. etc. for the alarms and ringtones as well.

I get "failed to copy ... to ... : read only file system"

To rectify this, I usually made the mountpoint read/write by typing "mount -w /system -o remount"

This has worked on other Hero ROM's as well as stock roms. For yours however, I get "Usage: mount [-r] [-w] [-o options] [-t type] device directory"

It will not let me push my sounds and it usually always did but I never got "Usage: mount [-r] [-w] [-o options] [-t type] device directory" before

Any suggestions? Maybe you can help on this one ReignZone. Thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jmannyjr33:
i see u have 2 downloads for evil v3, which one is the one with App2sd?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
The sounds are in data/media with that build. Try pushing there.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
V3.0 only.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
@Evil:

Sounds good. Most of the changes I would like to make are "small". Nothing too extreme; unless of course something of importance comes up...then by demand I'd go about solving the problem.

Here's a taste of things I'd like to alter:

- GMail.png

- Status bar

- Notification tray

- HTC Magic (boot.img)

I cannot think of too many things right now. It's mostly all visual aspects of this ROM. :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tazz9690:
Thanks eViL. That worked. One more question. I am trying to uninstall some things that I cannot do through the application manager, like footprints. When doing it through ADB I go to uninstall it by typing "adb uninstall HtcFootprints.apk" and when it goes through, all I get is "failure" I thought of doing an ADB pull and then I remembered, that it just creates a backup and does not remove it from the phone or memory card. Any suggestions? Thanks for all the help.

BFS kernel 303b......?

Hi,

Not sure if it's just me, but I just installed the kernel update 303b on my

working (but slow) Hero 2.9.8.2. Initial impressions - great speed boost,

but first problem encountered:

if I type su in a terminal (Better Terminal) I get the SU daemon page appear,

but it's blank - no buttons etc.

Damn - I just left my phone for 2 minutes and it's gone to sleep .... permanently.

Time to pull the battery and reflash to a slow kernel....:(

What's the latest on which kernel to be running? I notice that 3.0x has BFS-300 - is this stable or still eXperimental?

Cheers, Jon
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Jay_8698:
Do I need to wipe my data to install the new patch? or can I just rename it and flash?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] shadowleo85:
maybe its jsut me but imo 3x runs slower to me than 3.0 but very very good work evil... i love the big people widget but on this one for some reason i see the screen sticking when scrolling which in 3.0 a2sd ran fluid...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] shadowleo85:
are u talking about bfs? or the whole rom? if its the bfs u can just rename and flash if its the entire rom than wipe ur ext partition wipe the device and reflash
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
Here's some screen shots fellas.

http://twitpic.com/mg5rb :: http://twitpic.com/mg5sh

http://twitpic.com/mg5tf :: http://twitpic.com/mg5ui

Check those out. I shot them last night and my followers went nuts over the People widget! :D

3.x is flawless. Plain n' simple. Better, faster, stronger. Very nice Evil.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Jay_8698:
I was talking bout 3.x, the latest version that just came out. I'll make sure to wipe my data/factory reset it just in case though. Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Footprints is in data/app_s

or you can use to find the apk

adb shell find -name "Case sensitive".apk
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Jay_8698:
Are those screenshots actually from 3.x? If so, I love the way the new battery looks. Great job again, Evil! :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
Evil; the HTC kernel (2.6.27) has been sourced.

Apparently, it's "live". I'm going to check this out. I'll see if I can create a backport of BFS with it.

I'm going to wait and see what CC does with this though. It's the Hero kernel. Lord knows we need this. :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
from the repo, you just flash. 3x is a whole ROM ..... you would need to wipe.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Glad you like it! Not a whole major ball of wax, but if it stuctured differently. I could also just do an update to v3.....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Ahh, very nice. I'll be keeping my ears to the ground.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
The battery pack is not mine, Reignzone purchased that.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
I think the "update" you've provided is a great addition to this series. :D

I still flashed the BFS-230 patch directly to it; but it's much "prettier". I love the GMail notification icon. The HTC_IME is looking real good with the "carbon fiber" backing. The People widget is a solid add-on to this. Same with Peep, it seems that you've provided the "newer" version of this...because it offers a subtle amount of MORE user options. :eek:

As for the HTC Hero kernel...I'M SO PUMPED! This a major news to say the least. I can only hope that we can get Bluetooth operational for all of our users.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Jay_8698:
Oh, my bad. I love this ROM though, as soon I press on any application, it reacts and opens. And I love the new peoples widget. Now I can actually fit people without having to scroll through them. Also the scrolling between screens is smooth as ****. Good job, and thanks for the help. :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Foo_Blyat:
times like these i wish i would have done chess club and computer programming in highschool instead of sports.

so using amon_ra's recovery image to partition the sd in completely useless. im assuming the sizes he has are just completely crap to run this hero rom.

how can i partition my sd card manuelly without using adb (doesnt work on mu hp), and without using ubunutu (wont format the sd after making partitions making the sd useless). i know my revocery image comes with sdparted, but when i open up console i dont have a keyboard to type any commands.

im leaving for california tomorrow and seriously need a working phone while im out of town. can someone please tell me how to patition my sd without connecting it to my computer and without using amon ra's crappy defaults.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Foo_Blyat:
EDIT: just gave a last ditch effort into flashing the new 3.0 since the swap and ext have been changed in the user.conf and it actually works. FAST 2.

just a quick question, i purchased all the apps you gave for free to help give back to the community, how do i replace the outdated ones.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
Simply uninstall from the MANAGE APPLICATIONS section of your device settings...then enter the marketplace and download the purchased application.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] makross:
hey reign do you have the dl link for the people widget?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
I have posted that twice...on a few different pages. You'll need to back track a couple of pages to find where I posted that link. I did as well on Twitter, but that will take you much longer to find what you're looking for.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] makross:
thanks bud! Link in page 189.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
LOL, on my computer, page 98 is the last page. Maybe the post # would more helpful.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
Update?

Alright Evil; so what's the deal with this update you posted? I read what you've stated about this, but the details aren't exactly clear to me.

Other than what I've read...what can we expect upon flashing this "update".

And that's rather large, so are you sure that can simply be applied OVER the current installation of your ROM?

Any other specific things I would need to know about this? Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
It is basically the data/app_s folder as well as the framework from ccyrowski's sense ui ROM (the Magic's version of TouchFlo dump). It includes my custom "stuff" though, like lockscreen, status bar and notifications. Sense UI = TouchFlo.... As a whole, the apk's seem smaller, but that may be because of the compression. There's basically very minor changes to the framework too, so in a sense, I think it's just a more optimized Hero build. To me, it looks like a Hero ROM, which basically it is anyway, but there are some minor new things. Check it out and let me know if you see anything different or if it performs any different. I'm just throwing it out there for others to see if they wanna check it out. Yes, you can flash right over you existing build, I have done it. It also includes BFS-304, which is also now in the repository.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
So; I'm going to assume that this includes the MAGIC boot.img as well? Or perhaps the boot animation? :D

That would make this a little bit sweeter. Otherwise, I guess what I meant to ask is...after applying this directly over your ROM (which I currently have 3.x installed) won't that make this like some sort of "Mega ROM"...? Quite large indeed. Finally; "between you and I"; would you suggest this in terms of "awesomeness". Lol. :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mbrentjohnson:
Patch install question...

So you just transfer it to the SD, reboot in recovery... update... and reboot? And its good to go with the patch?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
No, I believe it's cc custom implementation of the boot.img. I haven't seen any new boot animation yet.... The apk's will just overwrite the other apk's, so it actually could be "slightly" smaller. Rosie definitely looks smaller uncompressed though. You guys tell me if there's any performance difference between Hero and "Sense UI". I think we'll only get boosts now in performance with a donut or eclair core.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
yep. I would run the fix uid mismatches to be sure too. but, you may have to reboot back to recovery for that.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Reignzone:
Oh, well MLIGN has the Magic boot animation from the official Sense release. It's quite nice. That's why I was asking. Otherwise; I think I'll steer clear of this update. I NEVER apply patches that will overwrite other files...it can eventually lead to data corruption; even with package reparations. :rolleyes:

It's gravy though...I'll be patient. The kernel is a nice addition to this thread. I'm sure folks will appreciate that.

SO...if anyone actually flashes the "Sense" patch; let me know if it has the HTC Magic boot animation. Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] LowQue27:
Wifi

I have just applied the v3x ROM with the update BFS304 new and I'm getting message: Unable to start wi-fi. Should I re-flash the update?
