SORRY

Process com.google.process.gapps is not responding

&

Application Htc Sense (in process com.htc.launcher) is not responding.

For both the errors it asked for force closure. i had to pull out the battery.

Modaco one request pls help me solve this issue love the rom u have made.

i have created a nandroid backup of the rom. pls let me know wt i can do to get it up and working fine....

Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Branwen:
Did you try factory reset/ data wipe? This usually solves boot-looping.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sslevski:
Hey I've got a question. Does 2.8 and 2.9 have Google Maps in them ? :confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] 04653:
yup i got that to work but it is the errors after that stop me from using the os.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kendong2:
you got the wipe "to work"? that is not the terminology normaly used for this.

boot into recovery, wipe, flash the mcr2.9, wipe again and reboot your phone. it it doesn't work try booting

without

your sdcard inserted.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JBNAquatics:
Yes I believe they should have it in both versions. It's not the 4.0 with voice navigation though. Just normal, simple Google maps.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kendong2:
could you provide us with the bash binary you are talking about? thanks.

hi paul when is the next version rolling out....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dying4004:
i am having a problem. i am using modaco 2.9 with fat32 , ext3 and swap partition. but still installing an application my internal storage is decreasing which shows that app2sd isnt working for some reason. any idea?

http://tunesbd.net/imagehost/out.php/i339_heroscreen.JPG
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kwiksand:
What order are your partitions in? It should make no difference but I'd noticed that the ext2/3/4 (apps) partition wasn't being recognised unless it came first on the card.

Apart from that, have you actually checked whether the apps are being installed on the card, some apps still take up space on the phone anyway I think, installation of system/background processes or something like that I'd imagine.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dying4004:
how to check if programs r actually going in ext? i checked that after installign each and every software my internal memory decreases.

Hey paul any date set for the next update?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] roakes:
I have been using the Pure Calendar app for quite some time now, but all of a sudden it has stopped working after the latest update.

When I uninstalled and tried to reinstall it is no longer available on the Market, the developer says this is due to the copy-protection on google market and the ROM I am using (MC2.9) not being registered with google?

Will it ever be or will this start occurring with other apps...or is there a workaround aside from going back to official ROMs?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] paulobrien:
MCR 2.9 has a build prop from shipping 2.73, so that is not the reason.

P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] roakes:
Good to know, I'll pass this on, thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] cdmackay:
by coincidence, I was also about to ask a similar question...

I've been running MCR since the very early versions, with almost no problems.

Since updating to 2.9 (from 2.8) I have noted that several apps have disappeared from the Market.

e.g: AppManager Pro, Google Maps, Multilang Dictionary

The apps still run fine, and I can see that they haven't really disappeared from the real Market, but the Market app on my phone doesn't find them.

They're visible in My downloads, but not as searches.

any suggestions as to how to debug this, please?

[I'll try a wipe as a last resort, but would prefer not to]

thanks much...

hi,Paul, Why the MCR 2.9 Chinese Version Haven't release yet? I' ve been waiting for a long time, by the way, can you fix the smart dial for Chinese name so that we can use pinyin to dial? waiting for you reply:)

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lupus77:
same here, no Google Maps and even can't find this in market. Tried a wipe and still no success. Any idea why maps does not show in market?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] cdmackay:
I've yet to try a wipe, but have tried clearing Market's cache.

Would anyone be able to confirm whether I have the correct build.prop, please?

# md5sum /system/build.prop.nopassword

08cb620b3c8a914dcc183eb3303c1e61 /system/build.prop.nopassword

[don't use /system/build.prop for the above, as the different password in it will obviously affect the checksum. The only difference in the nopassword version is that it has "REBOOT REQUIRED" in place of the password. So build.prop.nopassword should be the same on every MCR 2.9 phone]

thanks much.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] cdmackay:
No need; I asked a friend to check, and his is the same, but he *can* see apps that are missing on mine...

I don't see this app any more as well :-( Gave up on it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] BlueHawk:
I believe they've updated to the new Google Maps which is with navigation - but that is for Android 1.6 and higher so alas we aren't privy to it as the Hero is currently stuck at 1.5.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tony28:
I have installed this rom and when i install apps, it installs it on the internal memory and not on the sdcard.

Once installed, do we need to make something special to make installed the apps on the sd card ?

Thanks

Tony
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] FormelLMS:
Partition your SD Card?

You'll make a partition with 512MB in ext3 format.

Do you have so many apps, that your apps must go to sd? SD is slower than internal memory.

If you had no internal memory free it's okay. If you have many Megabytes free, it's useless and slower if you take your sd card.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] cambria83:
I'm having the same problem with Apps. missing from the Market. It never used to be a problem. I'm currently on 2.8 as I rolled back from 2.9 but the problems started with 2.9? If I used atrackdog it finds 10 updates for my apps. but all of them are now missing from the market for me?

I am on 3 in the Uk too if that makes any difference?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Gabe3:
quick question. I installed aTrackDog from the market, and it shows there being updates for a few of the apps that came with modaco 2.9.

google maps, installed: 3.1.2, new: 4.0.0

voice search, installed: 1.3, new: 1.4.0

spare parts, installed: 1.5 only, new: donut

should I update these or what?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] joopsg:
Most likely cannot install them.

Just leave them alone.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Gabe3:
Ok, what about spare parts? when or if there is a new version for it, the market doesn't know I have it installed. Should I uninstall it and then install the one in the market? that way I can get updates for it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] paulobrien:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bunu:
will this work on non-hero phones like the mytouch. i mean v1.5.1 worked on the g1!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] BlueHawk:
No. The kernel in the ROM is for the Hero hardware so you will only brick your phone. The port of the ROM for the Magic and Dream inserted the relevant CyanogenMod kernels for the Dream/Magic hardware if I remember correctly.

Hi guys, I seem to have a problem with my A2SD ... I have serious doubts it is actually working ...

I keep installing apps and my 'internal memory of the phone' keeps shrinking ... It is now only 90M (it used to be 130 or so, I believe the max is 150)

In a former thread I explained my trouble but thought it was fixed ... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=568932

Can you help me ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] packetlss:
Seems like your apps2sd partition isn't mounted. Try repartitioning the card and reinstall.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Corpsed:
A2SD question: I put MoDaCo's ROM on my Hero a few days ago and it's been great. I forgot to set up Apps 2 SD though. Do I need to reflash my phone with the ROM again and setup A2SD immediately after, or can I still still set up A2SD whenever I want (now)?

To get A2SD setup with this ROM, do I follow the instructions here?: http://code.google.com/p/android-roms/wiki/A2SD

Sorry, I'm a complete Android noob. Thanks for any help.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MrPappy86:
Hi Modaco

The description that you write "A2SD included (fully automatic - thanks cyanogen!) - create a EXT2, EXT3 or EXT4 partition as your second partition to use. dalvik-cache remains on device."

So I have format my sd card to three partition? Fat32 and ext3 and swap and all work fine without setting up?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] FormelLMS:
You don't need swap anymore.

Just FAT32 and ext3!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lord_Phoenix:
For 2.9 no need in swap partition, for previous versions yes. I'm on 2.8 with Swapper have ~7 Gb for FAT32, 512 for ext3 and 32 for swap.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] an0therus3r:
After searching around for some apps i ran into a stock app called "local" but it seems it's missing from MCR2.9.

Anyone can point me out to the apk of it and not the "morelocal" app as stated in startpost?

Eclair ROM?

Hi Modacco.... as substantially as i am in love with each one of your owesome ROMs, any chances of a quick release based on Eclair 2.1 since there are so many now...

Thanks:rolleyes:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lord_Phoenix:
What exactly? You can use df command for example.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] BlueHawk:
To check if you have swap enabled in 2.9 (which is pretty much near impossible not to have running), run at the command line (from an Android terminal) or through adb:

free

If it shows you have about 80MB of swap, then the compcache swap is running.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Gormandy:
Any plans on having a Modaco ROM using Eclair any time soon? :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] an0therus3r:
@modaco

Are you working on 2.1 yet since ROM got leaked?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lord_Phoenix:
Do you really want a ROM for your primary phone based on leaked and still pre-release version? =\
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dipje:
He posted on a thread @ MoDaCo about the leaked ROM that he didn't find it stable / good enough to make a MCR out off.

He got the leaked source for more than a week he said, so he still has access to the early stuff :). Once he encounters a ROM or leak that has stable and useful stuff in it to make it usable on a daily basis, he will MCR it :).

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] soulonfirexx:
I am very sure that it is still 1.5. Hero devs skipped 1.6 and 2.0. 2.1 ROM leaks are unstable for MCR use.

WPA2-Enterprise

Paul,

thanks for the great roms! I am just now loading up 3.0. 2.9 worked great for me! I have a quick question though. I was trying to get hooked up on my companies wifi. Using HiddenSSID I can find it but, the options for setting up WPA2-Enterprise seem to be different on this ROM vs a colleague who is using the Cyanogen 1.6 ROM for a Magic (I think). His allows you to select the authentification (I think). Is there any way to access this in your rom? Thanks again for sharing all your hard work!

Nice to c another update, but i really thought version 3 would be android 2.x. 2.9 is very stable for me but have problems with HTC applications they are very slow, but not that big deal for me.

Did you already looked at the 2.1?

Keep up the good job
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] stripealipe:
Upgraded from a nice smooth 2.9, but this is definitely smoother and more responsive so far. I notice the touch sensitivity seems nicers, multi-touch is smoother.

Overall an excellent upgrade! Thanks Paul!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Gormandy:
I believe he made a post saying he checked 2.1 and it wasn't stable enough for him to work with.

And thanks a lot Paul, I love your ROM. Its the bestestestest!

One question though (somebody asked this previous page also), my Wifi goes off to sleep when its idle for some reason. I have the "Never sleep" policy checked. Any help here would be appreciated.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] benlc:
Thanks a lot ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pjcforpres:
Check your memory before and after install... if free memory goes down only a fraction of the total used by the app, you did it right. If it goes down the same amount as the app, then it isn't getting on your SD card.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Tone-Fu:
Just upgraded to this. Had a little hiccup with my partition being ext4, which stuck me in a reboot loop. Pulled the battery, took out the SD card and rebooted into the recovery console, did a reset and rebooted fine - it works like a charm now, lovely and quick.

Are you sure guys? check it out! cause mine working fine. Try to install root explorer. browse and check whether the applications are in data/app or system/sd/app

They should be in system/sd/app.

You can use root explorer to do it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] janjan:
I just checked my apps are in system/sd/app. so it means it works fine. thanks guys

I followed this guide...http://androidandme.com/2009/08/news/how-to-manually-partition-your-sd-card-for-android-apps2sd/

after you complete this quide.(do in recovery mod ). Just remove your sdcard from your phone and put update-hero-modacocustomrom-1.1-signed.zip (rename it to update.zip). then wipe and after install your rom. done.

(it followed these steps and it work for me ...my appz are in system/sd/app)

I've been watching my phone memory diminish with every installation so I'm quite sure. When I get the chance later on I shall have a go with root explorer and see what's happening though.

I don't know if it matters but I'm installing apps with the adb shell on my PC rather than through the market.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Jabbypants:
Wonder why it never went in lol is it worth trying again with this update due out maybe Friday, the funny thing is i thought i had installed it and my phone seemed better to start with LOL i posted saying this all i had done is put the stock rom back on.

Did you have to put it back to ext3, or have you got it working with ext4 under this ROM?
