I tried The Rom.. Unfortunately, all the same problems exist.

1>search in browser in landscape mode, keyboard bounces.

2>sms delivery report time shows 7 mins. later than actual.

3>Advanced task manager does not show memory inso and system tab force closes (the 3rd problem is what i dont like),

I'm quite sure there is some problem in these modified roms(even the modaco one, Ive tried them all) because when i install the rooted unmodified rom from modaco the 3rd problem is solved it works fine(not that i really need this app. its just that some where in the back of my head i feel something is not right in the rom that causes this, which might later on be a problem with some other apps also). and i also added a2sd later on which worked fine. and the 1st and 2nd problem exists in all the roms(modified, unmodified, rooted, and unrooted stock roms). if you could please solve the 3rd problem it would be gr8.:)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] basbroens:
I'm very keen to try this rom...

Could anyone explain how to make the 3 partitions which are required.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ritdaw:
Just to confirm: a partitioned sd card is not optional for this rom? When fiddling with the modaco Rom I never bothered.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
3 partitions not neede!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
send me the logcat!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
remember I am USA time so I sleep when you all are testing so always be patient as I am trying to wok on this build as much as possible!

I will have an update tomorrow for you all! ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] soulehmoo:
Seem to have lost some apps from market ones im having trouble with being Maize's Digital Clock Widget and Autostart.

Any ideas?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tkm89:
Drizzy, have I told you - 'I never cried when pac died, but I probably will when my hero does' ;)

Good release Drizzy, will try it as soon as I get home!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lmart1n:
What's in your opinion better than in MoDaCos Rom 2.2, Drizzy?

Why should I flash yours instead of?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Azure465:
what's this "2.86.110.6 un-released build"? A new update coming up?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ritdaw:
Interesting change of style to the notifications area - not sure if I like it or not!

Also the lock screen - how did you manage to edit it?

As above
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nicelad_uk:
Any chance of some screen shots so we can see the visual differences?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mystaka:
: added lots of languages

What languages are there actually? My concern is on Chinese, obv. Will be more than perfect if a Chinese IME is included, just like MoDaCo's. Thanks, and nice to see you on this Hero board!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kosmiq:
Nice to see more custom ROM's out there. As with the others I'd also like to see some screenshots and more information about what's new/changed. Might switch from MoDaCo to this one... We'll see.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] keyra74:
testing asap :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] keyra74:
didn't even had to wipe on modaco one

god... it's even faster than before or i'm crazy

no problem with wifi/3g for now

sms ok

second picture shows his "optimized rosy" i think
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] KinkyGolab:
hey can u fix Plurk so it can be installd afterhand. plurk apk packapk
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hkfriends:

thannks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] KinkyGolab:
if u add it can u make it to install pack or so whe hu dount us it can remove it
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] packetlss:
Trying it out now. Will post my findings later.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Jesterz:
Like other people have noticed, i'm curious about a couple of things:

1. is this 2.86.110.6 release a HTC hero build ? or some frankenbuild from another htc device?

2. did you get the original build files ? (care to share them?)

3. did they come to you in RUU package or in update.zip form ?

for the rest, thanks for the build :) i'll have a look later !
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] KinkyGolab:
can u pleas add the wap browser, my internet back is using wap to the mobile internet portal
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hampan:
Hey cool, I installed this rom and now my phone can't find my sd card , not from cyanogens boot or when the phone is running.

My conclusion now is that I'm stuck with this rom since I can't get back to an older rom because of lack of sd card :((((((((((

Is it possible to apply the official RUU update without SD-card?

Also, the phone is no longer recognized by my computer ...

Am I totally f**ed now?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] FrAN_oC:
Does A2SD work correctly on this ROM? I have all my apps installed on EXT3 partition, so I don't wanna lose them.

I think I will make a nandroid backup, wipe and flash it to test.

I will comment if I find any bug.

RGDS!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] keyra74:
yup i confirm ap2sd working here
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] FrAN_oC:
THX!! Downloading ROM. Nandroid backup is ready.

I'll test it...

RGDS
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] domi55:
Please can anybody confirm if this is a HTC hero build?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hampan:
Anyone? Pretty please ... what can I do to get my sd back?

The phone says immediately on boot : SD card removed, please insert a new sd card.

This happened after flashing, can't even format the card in the phone, would it help to format it in a pc?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] slimfady:
You might wanna check if it's readable on your PC. If not, formatting would probably bring it back to life.

Is it the stock SD? you might wanna see if other SD cards would work on your phone.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
For those wondering what Build is 2.86.110.6 it is from a Unreleased HTC Sense UI phone I do Have the RUU but cannot leak due to source "though I have put this build together for you all to play with!"
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
Yes this is an HTC build but not a Hero Build "it is still a Sense UI build" it is very very similar to the HERO build nothing Different at all!

Due to source I cannot leak the RUU to this because it is not made for the HTC hero But I did make the sense UI port to HERO

"please enjoy!!"

Kind Regards

Drizzy
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] FrAN_oC:
Since I installed DDR 1.0, I cannot sync with HTC Sync. The phone is detected correctly, but HTC Sync refuses to detect it... I think I will roll-back to MCR 2.2, since I have all contacts sync'ed with outlook.

Any advice?

RGDS
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] keyra74:
enjoying :D

looks like my hero will have a good long cookin life with modaco and drizzy
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
mine syncs just fine!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] J-Zeus:
Is there an update.zip file to upgrade, as I don't have a pc ( I'm on Mac )?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] soulehmoo:
Tried market enabler to no avail also noticed Androzip not in market.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
yea they are all ready for update! just flash!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] intronauta:
Drizzy Drake Rogers , all working fine ;)

Great job!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] minogue:
Doing a Nandroid backup just in case anything goes back and will then Try out this rom!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
new build added lots of fixes and lots and added chinese stuff back on also added some extra apk's for chinese users and added the chinese languages

hope you all enjoy!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] FrAN_oC:
I rolled back to MCR2.2, made a backup, and reflashed with 1.0... and now... It's 2.0!! WTF! You are 2 fast!!! Amazing :eek::eek:

Downloading 2.0

Thanks a lot from Spain!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] domi55:
Thanks Drizzy

Can you please provide some details to the following change in 2.0:

What was the problem here?

cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Floejen:
How does this compare to Modaco 2.2?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] brettlzz:
hey mate this is my first time downloading a custom rom, for some reason modaco doesnt work for me.. i have used ur rom for an hour or so an no hassles what so ever, works a treat. syncs fine with windows also.

i was wondering though do i have to wipe everything again if i need to put any further updated versions on there? i assume u will have more coming just around the corner lol. thanks heaps again :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
in y phone I would sometimes get FC while browsing thru contacts but I fixed it now "Im in the USA so might have something to do with that not to sure!"

just changed some images and it fixed it!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] FrAN_oC:
I find it a little bit faster, but I am currently downloading 2.0 version... Also, graphic interface improvements has been included. And as far as I could test, new sounds have been included...

I will test 2.0 as soon as I download the file with my crappy ADSL :p

RGDS
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
yes wipe is required!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
i DONT KNOW i HAVENT FLASHED MODACO'S! but I have read that it is very good!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] domi55:
cheers Drizzy.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
Thanks see you around!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] minogue:
Yeah Modacos rom are very fast and stable! Im yet to try your rom yet! But will post back once i get everything up and running and will give my feedback!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
sounds good thank you!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] intronauta:
wipe is required to upgrade since v.1.0?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] deeren:
installed v1.0. did a wipe before install and even after but for some reasons, i had a clean theme, meaning without any widjets. i had to personally customise the screen and add the widjets one by one. Was this done on purpose?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
yea i removed all default setting which it boots up with out widgets! I gigured everyone will removed them all and make it custom " just saved them some time lol!"

Kind Regards,

Drizzy
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
yes please wipe!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] FrAN_oC:
I will remove all chinese stuff. Can I remove it from "manage applications" in settings menu?

Great ROM!! Thank you very much Drizzy

RGDS!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
yea I placed all chinese in app folder so you can remove it thru settings!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] brettlzz:
hey mate. This probly sounds like a stupid question but when I am upgrading from your 1.0 version to your 2.0 version do i have to delete the 1.0 version off my sd card first or can i transfer the 2.0 onto the card an rename it update2 an go from there??...thanks in advance..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
no you cant flash update 2 you will have to remove old update!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kwiksand:
!

Fantastic news! Now I just need a second Hero!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] brettlzz:
version 2.0 is awesome thanks for it mate...... appreciated HEAPS :D :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] soulehmoo:
Still having market trouble. Can anyone see if they can get to autostarts ebuddy and androzip.

If you can can you post your enabler settings.

Ta.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gaabrysz:
Ok first i would like to thank you for your hard work:)

Can anyone tell me how to: clear Dalvik? And can i reformat my ext partition using my phone? Im away from my pc for a few days. Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thespeed:
I have installed 2.0 but got some Chinese icons.

Can i change this or is this because of the Chinese support.

Thanx for the work!! :)

My hero works much faster :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lsim001:
Oh man. I just spent the past 2 weeks setting up the phone. I don't want to have to do a wipe. .. but I want to try this ROM. Guess I'll just have to harden up and do the wipe.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jhericurls:
I didn't wipe, just installed over the MoDaCo Custom ROM. Working fine I think, does seem faster than the MaDaCo 2.0 Rom.

Not sure if its because I didn't wipe but on the change-log it states "removed htc scenes" but I still have scenes on mine.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Amdathlonuk:
Can some-one post a nice variety of screen shots?

I have over 220 programs installed on my phone and it's running sweet as a nut!

Don't want to wipe if there's not much change...etc.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jhericurls:
Screen shot would be a bit pointless, as it all looks the same.

Only 2 visual differences:

- Lockscreen the grey arch is gone and displays full wallpaper. Still undecided if I like it or not. Time and date can be very hard to read now on lighter backgrounds

- Notification pulldown is now transparent.

Thats it, as far as I can see.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] KinkyGolab:
what do u mean whit added plurk "not in setup by default, sign in thru apk" ???? ign in thru apk????

can u fix wap browser to?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
yea i removed wap browser, but I mean in set up you wont be able to sign into plurk you must go into the apk and sign in!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Atze001:
v2.0 runs great. Extrem fast and stable. Keep up your good work :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] badgaz:
Thank you for making the effort with this great ROM.

Although I am having market issues, I cannot install my purchased apps it is saying failed to download?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gaabrysz:
Same here. Got the problem with paid apps.:(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] minogue:
'

i have the problem with private apps such as Pandora.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
try market enabler!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gaabrysz:
Didn't work.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
hmmm ill look into this error for next releases!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] slimfady:
I was able to re-download one of my purchased apps using market enabler 3.01 beta.

Flashed the V2.0 rom after a wipe from MCR 2.2
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hondasr:
I like your work Drizzy but i dont like this lock screen so i go back to modaco.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] keyra74:
can confirm there's a problem with market

before i could see every apps and now some paid one won't be here

i'm on a french isp and never had those problems before

market enabler does nothing 6 of my apps aren't found

i'll stick with this rom thou ... or not for now
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] freeed:
Market paid apps not working

Some of my market apps (paid ones) don't work either.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rvashi:
guys maybe i missed the obvious, but how come a keyboard doesn't come up during initial set up....I can't set up the device at all (APN, WiFi, etc).

I am using English (United States)....what's the deal?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] aleck_eagle:
Any of these issues been solved yet ??

1>search in browser in landscape mode, keyboard bounces.

2>sms delivery report time shows 7 mins. later than actual.

3>Advanced task manager does not show memory inso and system tab force closes
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] aleck_eagle:
Just Tried the v2.0 rom all the above problems exists.. goin back to rooted 2.73.405.5 (untouched) ,a2sd works very well with this as well. and no 3rd problem. thanks ne way
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] soulehmoo:
Apps not showing in market (even if market enabler used).

Prediction not working with QWERTY keyboard if you end the touchinput process (breaks after its restarted too).

Also dont like wiping every upgrade.

Might be a good idea to do what Paul did and make core and enhanced versions theres way too much extra locale stuff.

Reverted to MCR for now.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] FrAN_oC:
After intensive testing, I rolled back to MCR 2.2. I will wait until another new version. I found it a bit slower than MCR2.2 after intensive testing.

But anyway, great job Drizzy. I'll test all of your ROMs.

RGDS!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] keyra74:
from what i see listed above, the only problem i have is with market

my sms shows the right date/hour and launch fine

i don't use advanced task thing

mms confirmed working too
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Normanxiao:
Drizzy,

thanks for your great work.

this 2.73 version ROM don't support simpli chinese so well,

smart dialing: in dial interface, we can't search contact name by Pinyin, Modaco's custom ROM V1.5 do it well.

Contact sort: can't sort chinese name by Pinyin, we replace the libicudata.so in /system/etc to resolve it
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mystaka:
Very smooth, and full support of traditional Chinese. Perfect. I love v2.0!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] geovass:
How did you remove htc scenes ? I want to do that on modaco v2.2 rom. I dont need this crap... ;-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] freddy87:
hi,

hope someone can help me..

installed 2.0 after wipe..

now TouchInput Word Suggestions doesnt work at sms typing..

if i write a new email - it works normally..

sorry for my bad english :)

best regards from vienna

freddy
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] brettlzz:
Hey.. I've got a few little issues that never happened before on the stock Rom..

1. When Im typing txt messages from my inbox the prediction doesn't come on.. it works though when I'm in browser or searching though..

2. I use apnDroid to kill my connection so it doesn't download constantly. I have had to uninstall because when I press the widget the screen freezes for 5 seconds.

3. When I am in market the connection freezes after downloading a few apps, I have to restart my net settings. I never had to do that before.

Apart from all that I like the added extras you have put in an the speed of the phone an the lockscreen..cheers :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robertosandros:
for some reason I get a FC when trying to play the game Robo defense. Maybe Open GL issue?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] KinkyGolab:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] keyra74:
looks like the market thing isn't due to your rom

i have now the same problem with modaco after restoring my backup

so back to yours for now
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] oblika:
@Drizzy

1) Is there a possibility of creating a update.zip that would change the lockscreen back to normal?

2) Suggestion: Maybe you could create 2 versions of the ROM (like MCR), one with Chinese language and IME and all other "not really needed things" and one that has all the goods.

3) Maybe you could post some ROM editing guides (For us that want to become chefs;))

I'm happy to see more developers working on Hero ROMs.

B
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kwiksand:
Yea, I made a similar request to this topic the other day, as I'd like to get into it myself. I'd hate for the peeps (Drizzy, Modaco) to think I haven't attempted to do my homework, as I've done a lot of reading, but apart from adding and removing applications from the build itself and applying new HTC builds without access to the kernel source itself the optimisations seem limited?

Obviously thats not the case though, otherwise there wouldn't have been the need for so many versions of the custom ROMs though!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Birba:
the same happened for me. with modaco i was able to brows private-apps in the market. with drizzys i wasn't able anymore.

then i restored my modaco nandroid backup and now i'm not able to browse private-apps with modacos mod.

i noticed another thing. touchpal worked with modacos. with drizzys it crashes. after i restored modacos it also crashes. can somebody explain me that?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] egress:
I changed from modaco 2.2 to this one, discovered market problem, went back to modaco still had problem. wiped and reinstalled modaco problem gone hope this helps.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Birba:
ok, touchpal was my fault...

i solved market issue in the restored modaco rom by deleting market stuff and then killed the market task:

rm -R /data/data/com.android.vending/*
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rvashi:
Hey guys, no one answered my question....whats the deal with the keyboard not showing up? I can't set up the device at initial set up and can't type anything anywhere.

Is there a trick or something to get the keyboard to show up?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] badgaz:
It worked for me and seemingly everybody else straight away but maybe you could try long pressing the text input box and choosing the "Select input method" option?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] enlightener:
hmmm, you have wiped after installing the rom, didn't you? :D

you have to wipe before flashing the rom, if you wipe after, you will lose some apps that are installed on /data/app/
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rvashi:
I've tried the long press and nothing comes up. I've even flashed the image twice with no luck. I've tried multiple button combinations and no luck there either.

What gives?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rvashi:
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh......... I sure did wipe after installing the ROM (thinking it was safe practice).

I think you're right on the dot.....but what now?? Should I install an original htc ROM then install this one again?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] enlightener:
just reinstall the same rom (ie drizzy's hero mod v2.0 )
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vanti:
Im liking this custom build. Only thing I've noticed is that it does not suggest words when using QWERTY in "Messages" anymore. Seems all other places work fine except when I try to send SMS. I use swedish language but I must confess I did not wipe prior to going from Modaco 2.2 (I wiped before installing that one tho). Could that be it or is it something in this ROM?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] locutus-of-borg:
[ROM]**9/13/09** Drizzy's Custom Hero Mod-V2.0 "Full Chinese support added

Hi

well this is my first time using custom rom and its fast seem to be stable will let you know what gose on with it but so far so good all i can say is thank you Dizzy
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] keyra74:
tried a wipe then reinstalled your rom and still the same, half market is visible

i'll wait for your next release
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ghoonk:
I'm seeing the same thing using the modaco modified ROM with HTC CIME installed. A reboot sometimes solves the problem, otherwise, it's a reflash to get things working again.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] enlightener:
must be a issue with build.prop ;)

you have to change the build.prop and then wipe (i don't know if just deleting /data/data/com.android.vending/* works the same) ... but if you wipe you will lose some apps like HTC_IME that in this rom are stored on /data/app... so it's better if you change the build.prop in the zip and then resign and flash :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ZenorGR:
2-3 sec delay for me, like with modaco's ROM
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] crash515:
Then i still stick with rom from htc until somebody dont fix that problem BTW thanks for so quick answer
