Hello,

Port for 32B :

Original thread for more details

First A big thanks to Haykuro for providing the system dump of the latest known Hero build. Great contributions from Haykuro always!!! Make sure to thank him!!!

This ROM is based off the latest "HTC" ROM leak 2.83.x.x with tons of mods enjoy!!

DO NOT RUN ANY OTHER APPS2SD APPLICATIONS ON THIS BUILD. YOU WILL BREAK YOUR SYSTEM. THEY ARE NOT NECESSARY BECAUSE THIS ROM WILL DO A2SD AUTOMATICALLY AND BETTER!

NOTES:Swap is linux-swap by default. Edit the user.conf in /system/bin to change swappiness etc. Compcache modules built with the latest source are included if you want compcache or compcache with backing etc. Run sh /system/bin/swap -s to check swap status and other mod values.

JACxHEROSki-v1.7r2

-Remixed 1.5/1.6 with the latest 2.83.x.x HTC Hero Dump

-Kept Old Mms.apk

-Removed Plurk related .apk's (I dont like plurk )

-Updated Modules with backing swap bugs fixed

-Updated libs from dump

-Compcache with Backing Swap now on by default instead of Linux-Swap (Still need the 3rd partition for backing swap!)

-added back the ophone dropdown

- Everything else reads as 1.6r2a does

JACxHEROSki-v1.6r2a :

*New 2.6.29 kernel by JAC-SKI CUSTOM HTC SOURCED

*reverted Mms.apk

*update wifi tether 1.52

****EXPERIMENTAL*******

JACxHEROSki-v1.5r2 :

Everything else has a function for someone or another remove via terminal if you dont want Stock etc

wait so the original thread was for 32a?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] setenza01:
The rom is ported from Dream, that's the original rom .....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fridlack:
Faster than qtek? will give a try this night.

Thanks for the port!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ElChouch:
Hi Setenza, how fast is this rom ? I m running drizzy's full v3, can you make a comparison between these two ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] setenza01:
No i don't use this rom.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] pbaird:
I just flashed this - best part is that I do not get the "blurry screen" problem.

I enabled compcache and backing swap, and reversed apps2sd to run off the memory. This is a fast ROM - so far I'm really really liking it. This is subjective - but right now I think it is about the fastest hero I've run - but many of the recent ones have given the blurry screen, so I haven't given them a chance.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fridlack:
How you reversed app2sd? i allways thing that magic owners no need app2sd, we have more internal storage than dream one....

Any room run faster from internal memory than from microSD, i think.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mgorman:
So this is the first 32B ROM of JACxHero 1.4? If so that would explain why I was having problems running it on my 32B board.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] pbaird:
I followed Loccy's instructions here -> http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4353332&postcount=68
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] maxon25:
tried this rom, it seemed quick but brouser seems slow when loading a page and youtube cant play in HQ which tells me that im not getting 3g even tho the icon is their
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] WebghostDK:
wow this is even faster than qtek with compcache and back :O
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] arunchowdhary:
GPS does not work

I have just flashed this ROM on MyTouch, here is my obeservation:

1) GPS Does not work

2) Weather widget does not work, even I used the City name it does not get data on widget screen (is says "Can not load weather data...something")

3) Overall its very slow, when placed only 4 settings widgets on first screen

4) Wifi, Phone call works good.

Rest I'll test and let you know. Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] maxon25:
seems like these hero roms act different with each person who loads it. My weather widget worked fine for me. their was alittle bit of lag.

Still...the hero roms are getting better and better.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] wachino:
Can you explain how did you enabled compcache and backing swap?

Its needed a swap partition or its need two swaps partition?

Sorry for my english and thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fridlack:
Thanks for the link, as i undestand if i extract rom, delete cd /system/bin/a2sd and resing it, after instaling is it without app2sd? or need to make the full process after install the rom?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hitman4485:
how did you disable A2SD? how did you enable compcache and backingswap? new to all 3. would appreciate any help. thanks much in advance.

nvm found link for A2SD removal
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Mi|enko:
Wanna share the link? Been lookin' for it for a while now. Tried different searches, but I don't know how it's worded, what thread it's in, etc. lol Any help would be great. Also, is it running smooth for you without A2SD?

i personally can't get it to work... i get stuck at the splash screen...

EDIT: you probably want to download connectbot found here

i was trying to use a plain windows command prompt, which is probably why its not working...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mykenyc:
can someone verify this for me when i use hero rom like this and disable touchflo then restart the phone and go to people the app crashes everytime???
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hitman4485:
ok why doesnt this have auto rotate in sms app? out of the 2 jac-hero roms i tried neither of them had it. how do i enable this?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hitman4485:
after testing this it runs incredibly smooth...however...no horizontal keyboard for mms? what gives? this is the second jac*hero app ive used that didnt have it...dont take my tone the wrong way i appreciate all of this work for these roms. thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hitman4485:
hey!

no auto rotate? why? this is the second jac*hero app ive used without it. how could i enable this?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hitman4485:
sorry

sorry for the multiple posts...didnt think quick reply was working...again my apologies
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] djchiena:
I just flashed this ROM and experienced the same issues but i would like to add that SMS did not work for me. I would text someone and won't receive a text back.

I did some testing and switched the data from 3g to EDGE and ta da! Everything worked...GPS locked in on my location, texting came through on time.

I guess i have no choice but to stick with EDGE for now and then switch to 3g whenever i need to download things from the market.

Besides all these issues, I wish the rom had the Footprint app installed. Awesome ROM so far me. THANK YOU!!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mykenyc:
wrong thread meant to put for qtek sorry
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mgorman:
i just installed this rom and the market app isnt on the phone
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] djchiena:
the market app was included in the rom i installed. Did you perform a device wipe prior to flashing the rom?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mgorman:
yes. everytime i install a new rom i go into recovery mode and do format sd fat32/ext2/swap then i do data wipe then i do ext2 to ext3 and then i flash the rom
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] boosted22:
swithced to this rom from older qtek rom due to not getting about 90% of my sms. Used the Jac hero roms on my G1 and was getting most if not all of my sms . when I flashed this rom i did a wipe then the update and when phone booted I got a force close on messaging. before flashing this rom I tried to update to qteks new rom and figured it was an issue with the rom but now I see that there is an issue with the phone or something im doing. Anyone have any ideas?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] djchiena:
well after playing around with this rom all day, it got slower and slower and kept on restarting to the HTC logo screen with whatever i did and it just frustrated the hell out of me. Here are my observations with this rom:

-i had a sms problem where i would send a text and when my friend replied, i never received the message. i tried to isolate the problem to maybe my friend having a bad signal but i tested it with my second phone and also google voice. no text received. I solved my problem by switching my data to 2G and after that change, i was receiving all texts. I mass texted about 10 people and i received their replies immediately.

-the device got slower and slower as the day went on. also whatever change i made with the phone such as launching a new application, making a change in settings, and even going back to the home screen after making/receiving a call, the rom would reset itself and flash the HTC logo and reload the TouchFlo home.

-google maps and weather will not update your location/weather unless you are in 2G mode.

-i keep receiving a message that some app called acore needs to be force closed. after i force close, the phone resets to the HTC logo.

-still haven't tested bluetooth because the phone would crash and reset everytime i tried to make a change to use my earpiece to connect during calls.

after all this, i decided to just disable TouchFlo and use the standard Home screen. The difference is night and day and the phone is more responsive. i'm just happy that at least works great so it can get me through the weekend.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] frost785:
messages force close

i just tried loading this rom on my buddys G1 following the dream thread (i have a mytouch have not tested this) and his messages would force close before the rom would even fully boot up tried everything ran out of time befor i could reflash the radio and spl then wipe reformat then update rom thats the last thing i can think of doing ...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] frost785:
fix

i was reading some post and i found that the force close for the messages can be due to not reformatting the sd card which i did but that is how most fix it
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] soulfullvibes:
Touchflo

How did you disable touchflo? I hate that when you do something it has to reload the touchflo, any help on how to disable that would be great!!

thanks,
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] djchiena:
Off the top of my head...

- Go to SETTINGS -> APPLICATIONS -> MANAGE

- Scroll down and select TouchFlo

- Press the Clear Defaults button

- Afterwards, press the Home button on the phone

- Press on the checkbox to enable "use always this option"

- Click on Home

i am loving this rom! superfast and minimal lag! this is what ive been lokking for. i do have one issue with it though...at first the messaging app would always force close. i started over and partioned my sd card a second time and this fixed it. it seems as if my text messaging work because i had a few friends shoot me a text while with them last night and i got them without a problem. now it turns out texts from my girlfriend never come through! i got her first on and no more after that. she is on the same carrier as 2 of my friends who didnt have a problem getting me messages the night before. anybody know a fix for this problem? other than that i love this rom. hands down the best one ive tried on my mytouch!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dander88:
SD card issues

When the rom loads i am getting a notification that the sd card has been removed and to replace it..

any ideas?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] da0ne:
lol im having the same issue only some sms come in and the ones that dont are from my girlfriend
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] teddy_ballgame3:
haha its funny that its just girlfriends...maybe the rom is trying to tell us something? haha. i dont know if this was a fluke or not BUT i went into message settings and changed the priority level to normal. i do a TON of texting so i figured it couldnt hurt to change to priority setting to high instead of normal. i changed it back to normal and had her text me 3 times and they all came through. give that a shot. does anyone have anything they can add to the message priority settings? i havent read anything about them thus far.

Took the risk and flashed JACxHEROSkiv1.6 and seeing good things so far. Thank you all Dev for the great work.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ch4dr0x:
Just flashed to it a little while ago this morning. So far so good, had a force close when setting up the weather widget but after that its smooth sailing. Have 3 widgets on my home screen, and the twitter widget on the screen to the left with little to no lag so far.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Doom_G2:
I'm really interested in JacxHero 1.6. But - since I'm a sms-fanatic - all the trouble with textmessaging in Hero-roms keeps me from flashing my phone.

Are these troubles still there in 1.6?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] pphengsykeo:
I have not had any issues with sms text messaging. After flashinging, I immediately tested by texting friends and received the replies immediately.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yipcanjo:
Do you get the "blurry screen" action with your MT3G + this ROM?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ch4dr0x:
No I didn't. This ROM is working rather flawlessly for the moment.

However, I do have a question... with this new version do you still need to reverse Apps2SD or did I just screw everything up? I followed the guide that Loccy made but I can't find the line of code he said to delete.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Egonny:
Is a 32A port possible?

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ElahC:
Thanks guys for the replies :).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yipcanjo:
Currently using the 1.6 (beta) on the MT3G. It runs decently and *does not* blur, but I would guess that the eViL 1.7x5 probably runs a bit better. Still, both end up showing me the "HTC load" screen far too often, which is such a bummer. It's really hard to go back to the stock Android OS after you've used Hero...

Anyone know when the awesome "Hero performance" code is going to be released?

Hopefully soon... that vid I saw on gizmodo looked smooth as butter!

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MarkoDiMarko:
Hello to everyone. I've got a question which may be stupid for you out there, but it's smth that's really bugging me. I installed the latest version of JACxHEROSciv and it's going really well. I also installed HTC sync apk in order to sync with outlook. I have been able to sync contacts, but I don't get any option to sync with calendar. I have done a lot of searching without any result. If anyone has an opinion, I would be very glad to hear it.

Thank you in advance.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] StreetGuru:
Download the Google Calendar sync here:

http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=89955

It will sync your outlook calendar with your google account which by turn will sync automatically with your phone.

Hey Guys,

Last night I went from JACHeroSki-v1.5r2-sapphire to JACxHEROSki-v1.6r2a-sapphire, but after installing the new update I'm now getting the Fuzzy screen. I have now gone back to JACHeroSki-v1.5r2-sapphire for now.

Also how do you apply the JACxHEROSkiv1.5 to 1.6r2a no wipe patch? I have gone booted to recovered mode and try to apply the patch but I get

E: Corrupt file: boot.img

E: Verification failed

Installation aborted.

Is there something I may be doing wrong, I have download the file a few times to eliminate file corruption but get the same error.

Thanks

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Lindarose84:
can anyone else confirm a blurry screen after the 1.6r2a no wipe update? Looking particularly for those with a MT3G. I would like to update but I don't want to deal with the blurry screen.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] pphengsykeo:
I flashed it to try it out and did not get any blurry screen. I went back down to JACxHEROSki-v1.5r2 because the latency seen in 1.6r2a. JACxHEROSki-v1.5r2 works well and the performance is very good for a HERO rom.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sanmartindj:
I'm gonna flash and report back but after reading the blurry screen thread I think it will run in to problems.

I will report back!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] AGTCooke:
Thanks

Smoothest running ROM I've found for MT3G. It's still a little choppy, but I'm probably pushing it:

- Mail Sync w/ Exchange

- HTC Clock\Weather widget

- HTC Calendar widget

I formatted /fat/etc/swap with Amon's utility. Currently using swapper + swap partition + swappiness:60.

We'll see how it goes.

Also, I'm using the default ("perfect") SPL (006, I think?). Not sure if that makes a difference at this point.

Thanks again.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sanmartindj:
I just tried 1.6b and I still got the blurry screen.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yakovich:
I am using 1.6r2a and it is REALLY fast for a hero rom. I was completely surprised, but let's face it.. not as fast as cyanogen by any means. However the hero has SOO many features that are needed.

Everything appears to work so far, but I have had a restart for no reason once or twice. Multi-touch doesn't work on the maps, which sucks.

Is swapping neccesary for this rom? I got the feeling everything was already being maxed out ala cyanogens approach.

The browser does lag, and everytime I open it it has to "retrieving sign in details" and it takes forever. Also the browser crashed on me while trying to load techcrunch, and it just seems laggy for some reason. Like it can't handle the load on bigger pages. But for the most part it is okay.

It takes 50 seconds to load the UI after closing out of the browser, not that pleasing of an experience. But it is not enough to stop me from using it. Given the multi-touch, stop button in the browser, htc keyboard, all the widgets work okay....

Now my phone just went blank, and I have to do a battery pull... Dunno if I will keep it, if it keeps crashing its not worth it... GOD I WANT a real hero rom thats as fast as cyanogen :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sanmartindj:
Do you have the linux-swap partition? I rarely get the loading screen after the browser. I don't think hero will be as fast as cyanogen until we get the official lag-free update from htc (or the official magic port) and then the devs here can work their magic.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yakovich:
Now I am stuck in a boot loop... The hero animation keeps popping up, and I can't do anything. HELP!!

I have anons utility to wipe, but I don't know how to get back in the phone to mount the sd card... this is VERY SAD :(

All I did was format the ext2 to ext3... tried to start again and it is jacked.

Okay I uplaoded the rom to a diff SD card, going to try again... I don't see why formatting to ext3 would do that, but I'm going to stay away from it now.

Any tips for how to install this rom perfectly would be greatly appreciated.
