I'm not too sure... is the original modaco 2.2 mytouch-compatible? Because then it would at least be possible...
[G1 Android Development] Cosine:
nice man iim gonna flash it rite now
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
It works well if you put in a user.conf with 64mb swap partition and 60 swappiness... otherwise it's useless cuz all this hero stuff CANNOT run well on the G1 without some other RAM source.
[G1 Android Development] qwerty3656:
Swap Partition

I've heard others say 96mb Swap partition. Have you tried both and like 64mb better?
[G1 Android Development] yourtravelboy:
Sort of a fix....just clear cache to get new updates. I can send out if I sign out and sign back in, but its only for a short time before it FCs again.
[G1 Android Development] FREAKJAM:
better then nothing ;)

thanks! :D
[G1 Android Development] dipeshb:
By Jove, I think he's done it!!

Mr King, well done on this ROM... My experience so far

Rosie:

As smooth as Modaco 1.51, smoother than Drizzy 1.5.5. Equal or maybe better then JAC1.72

App opening: The best I have seen so far!! ( and I have thrashed many a Hero ROM), what a job dude, well done!!

People App Scrolling: Good job, usual slight lag, but the best of the bunch. Same as Modaco 1.51

Seriously King, PLEASE keep doing what you are doing, you are headed in a good direction..

Wish List:

MULTI TOUCH please!! I know its troublesome, but if you can lick that, this is my Golden Hero ROM!!..

BT and fully working LED's - But, that may be asking way too much!!

I dont get the ADB terminal.. I do an ls and I get this:

# ls

ls

←[1;32makmd←[0m ←[1;32mgzip←[0m ←[1;32mpm←[0m

I can make out the names of the files, but WTF? Whats wrong with the simple display of your directory? I know this was the same with the Modaco 2.2, but any chance of switching the shell to the familiar one?

Looking forward to tweaks and opts for this ROM..
[G1 Android Development] jubeh:
I hadn't really seen this rom, I only downloaded it (I'm keeping a repository of most roms that are posted here, and save for some very old ones or non-noteworthy ones, I have them all), but when I read that comment about the boot image, I had to see it. Heh, this rom must be the pletora of bestiality from cyanogen's build. Inside out and all throughout it's Paul's rom, same framework, same everything. Some few things are different, but I don't see why this rom should be faster (maybe slower) since Paul did such a hell of a job with MCR (actually, he didn't change much over the stock Hero build, and that's a good thing). That boot animation, though. I'll have to send it to everybody in my phone's contact list for a good laugh.
[G1 Android Development] dipeshb:
You are probably right, but the Apps do seem to be opening much faster, and the menus are definetly more responsive, they are odex'd maybe thats why?

I say good job to him, he has fully credited his rips also

Not a fan of the boot ani tho :-)
[G1 Android Development] joe v:
does anyone know what happend to the voice search for maps?? i love that thing, is ther any chance of getting it back up on the next update?
[G1 Android Development] kolyan:
I dont get any FC and all my apps are running fine so far. I did notice a memory leak or something......sometimes my Memory is dropping all the way to 13MB-20MB and closing applications does not really help. This makes everything lag.

1 suggestion, if possible, to also include vibrate on hang up feature.
[G1 Android Development] Krazyone:
Ditto! A few tweaks here and there and it runs just as smooth as any other ROM. Thanks to all the devs who make the cooked roms possible!
[G1 Android Development] masarliev:
I am getting this error while flashing this rom

E/ ( 1568): Can not open/create the keystore directory /data/misc/keystore/
E/keystore( 1568): Can not initialize the keystore, the directory exist?

Someone help me please
[G1 Android Development] Tomb77:
What steps are you taking before flashing? When are you getting this error?
[G1 Android Development] masarliev:
wipe, repair ext partition, rm -r /system/sd/*, fix_permissions, update, reboot and boom :) 3 Times
[G1 Android Development] masarliev:
wipe, repair ext partition, rm -r /system/sd/*, fix_permissions, update, reboot and boom :) 3 Times

and now I will repartition sdcard again
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DONT LIKE MY BOOT IMAGES/SOUNDS I put up my same ROM except with the stock htc sounds and images on the original post.

CHEERS :cool:
[G1 Android Development] Tomb77:
I don't know if it matters but I think your suppose to repair after clearing you ext. wipe, clear ext, wipe, repair, then flash is what I do. I heard you should clear dalvik-cache too. Hope that helps

Edit: thanks for the confirmation bobzoz. \/
[G1 Android Development] sic08869:
I wanted to reiterate how good this version of Hero really is. I am so impressed. As stated it really helped to start from scratch with this build.

I personally formatted allowing for 7+GB of space for Fat32, 512 ext3, and 96mb swap.

Did a clean install and its running phenomenal, I have widgets on every desktop and with the exception of the SMS widget most of them are instantaneous access.

In regards to the sound and splash, its more of a work thing for me. Ironically I was in the middle of a wipe/format when I had to leave for home. I did the install once I got home. My 3 year old daughter heard the song and proceeded to hum it all night long.
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
HAHA you just made my day man. ANyway if you want the stock boot sounds/images I put em on the original post :)

Also the song is 2am by slightly stoopid.
[G1 Android Development] n1ghtl1fe:
yea ur right it does matter. wipe, erase ext, wipe, repair flash.
[G1 Android Development] masarliev:
I repartitioned again sdcard but this time with 96mb swap(not 64) and successfully flashed KING's ROM . For me this is the best ROM yet (bow)
[G1 Android Development] Krazyone:
Where is the English US Locale?
[G1 Android Development] lycoln:
Use the app "custom locale" and scroll to English - US

If anyone wants a REALLY simple way to do partitions w/o any extra software needed other than you phone and SD Card reader for you PC...Hit the link in my signature.

**It will set you up w/ 3 partitions (swap being 96M <-easily changed, if you want)
[G1 Android Development] isikh:
yeah that^^
[G1 Android Development] jroid:
ok that's what I was thinkin. yea I enabled backing_swap and it's running smooth :) btw King your hero's are they fastest/smoothest hero ive ever run. they're the best I can actually stay on hero. just amazing
[G1 Android Development] isikh:
Is that linux swap swappiness or compcache swappiness?
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
no problem

No problem 10 characters
[G1 Android Development] Dalamar1320:
YES! I LOVE Red Rosie! Does it have the transparent lockscreen?

And is it exactly like the original Red Rosie? Or are you going to add more red accents to it?
[G1 Android Development] phpdiddy:
Facebook syncing issues?

Long time lurker, first time poster. This ROM has been working great. Great job all around.

Usually a quick search answers my question, but I haven't been able to find an answer on this one. Anyone else having issues with a handful of their Facebook links not working? I have about 7 or 8 profiles that won't sync, won't get albums, won't get any data from Facebook, but all my others work great, with profile pics and all syncing and working fine. Tried wipes, logging out and in, erasing the notes in Gmail to remove the links, etc.

Anyone else run into this or got any tips?
[G1 Android Development] PSP_Hacker:
System APKs in sd?

I find all the system APKs (Browser, HTC_IME, etc.) in both /system/app and /system/sd/app_s ...

Are the APKs actually on the sd? Is Android using the APKs from the internal NAND instead?

If the system apps start from my class2 microSD, that explains the slowdowns. This Hero build is still the fastest I've even seen, but 1.7 seems to be more stable... I just got a reboot on 1.8, probably because of my enormous linux-swap filesystem for CompCache... 128 MB :D

Keep up the Android pwnage, this is the best Hero build ever, it's not far from being as usable as one of the Google builds.
[G1 Android Development] digitallysick:
Are the radio and spl listed here, right or wrong for this rom?

http://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/downloads/list

Sorry, the information is not clear enough for me.

Wish the instructions would say

1. Download SPL here link

2. Download radio here link
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
yes sir these are it. but i would definitely suggest trying without backing swap and/or increasing it to 169mb
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
nah i had 169mb and it was fine, only using compcache no swap partition and it's even better :D yeah i believe all the apps are moved to the sd, unless it's only the downloaded ones...

i'm pretty sure you shouldn't have all the system apks in both /system/sd/app AND /system/sd/app_s. should only be in the latter
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
very good :) yep don't forget to flash the RADIO FIRST
[G1 Android Development] lycoln:
It does have the transparent lockscreen and it is the original "King's Red Rosie".

Everything that I do to this build will be by user request (examples: status bar, dialer, hover color, etc. ) ...so send me a PM or tweet with any requests.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
dude that's pretty cool :D so the other builds you do are just whatever you feel like plus the polls?
[G1 Android Development] hks18psigst:
1. 8 is basically perfect... just can't get it to ring as soon as 1. 7 did. .. was there any change that would result in this issue?
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
ummm... go to the phone prioritizer app and press start service
[G1 Android Development] hks18psigst:
Thank-you very much a lot better but I feel dumb now ha!
[G1 Android Development] lycoln:
That is correct and the poll ones are from user request.

Tried out this build and it made me regain faith in Hero builds on the g1...so I'm just trying to pull more eyes to the amazing work KingxKx has done. ;)
[G1 Android Development] joe v:
i looked at the change log but didn't see if this is running on 1.5 or 1.6 with new market or if hero can even run the new market? can anyone lmk.. thanks..:D
[G1 Android Development] skaterA223:
Sprint T.V

has any one have luck runnging sprint tv on this rom i tried but no luck

sorry im WAYYYY of topic
[G1 Android Development] mekan:
Hey King! I was wondering if you could "How to" get the throttle of the lock screen as I like it more with something there!(Hero Looking Lock Screen:cool:) and if theres a way to get MyFaves.apk to work here?
[G1 Android Development] crr127:
i had it running on a 1.6 rom today.. sprint tv that is and honestly until we can figure out how to bypass the subscription issue there really isn't much use to it.
[G1 Android Development] skaterA223:
whats next

so besides being the fastest hero rom out and the koolist whats next for this rom what can u do to make this even better or if you can do anything else becuase this is perfect !!!
[G1 Android Development] crr127:
he can add the dragon dump when he gets it....or the sapphire release hopefully... should make for some interesting weeks comming up...
[G1 Android Development] isikh:
WOW Sprint TV doesn't work over WiFi..off topic, but on the other hand, king, do you think you could bypass this?
[G1 Android Development] skaterA223:
OK

ok so this "dragon dump" is going to be awsome i asume (sorry i have horable spelling and NO im not stupid just dont care) anyways so whats in it and what can it do to improve this rom
[G1 Android Development] PSP_Hacker:
Rosie UI on this build is FAST!!!!

The Mail widget slides my messages almost immediately after I flick it... the Twitter widget is responsive... the browser is fast, and could beat iPhone's Safari if it weren't for the G1's memory and processing limitations and Android's lack of hardware-acceleration for the UI...

As soon as Google adds GPU acceleration for the UI and improves the development tools to allow more diverse applications, Android will beat Mobile OS X!
[G1 Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Very minor issue, but would you consider changing the "H" to "3G". I know its from the European, but I keep looking at H and going "huh??". 1.8 is running great!
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
I Sound Like A N00b

I sound like a n00b, but how do you get the Sprint apps to work on 1.8 their in the app folder but they don't work and all.
[G1 Android Development] digitallysick:
Ok I finally jumped on to this rom, but its very slow for me, any speed tips?
[G1 Android Development] jroid:
well for 1 its HTC Sense running Donut..(1.6) all hero roms right now run on cupcake (1.5) as for any other goodiez.. idk we'll have to see when drizzy ports it :)
[G1 Android Development] cephaus:
sometimes when i press menu or some other face button the screen goes black and wont light up. :( the only way i can fix this is to pull out the battery :(

anyone else have this happen to them?
[G1 Android Development] mackster248:
is there a stock android keyboard apk? i wanna put it in this hero rom.
[G1 Android Development] digitallysick:
How do I change the swap speed or should I? my phone lags =(
[G1 Android Development] skaterA223:
OHHH

ok i see that will be awsome so like how long do you ppl think till a next update cuz in these two past days 1.7 and 1.8 came out one night later lol but this next update is going to be savage:D
[G1 Android Development] skaterA223:
well i have a 96 mb swap and its runs super smooth for me. im a n00b at this stuff as well (not saying you are) but what i did is that i got amon RA recover.img v1.2.2 it will partiotion your sd to its setting (96mb)and if you want a 32mb swapp get his newer release v1.2.3

heres the link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=566669
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
Haha funny you mention it

I have in fact played with the sprint dump.. almost got a full port to boot...

Anyways about wi fi, i found a way to bypass it making you shut off wifi... only problem is i cant get it to work properly after... if another dev wanted to help me with that project id def work on it. Jus dont have the time to do it solo...

In class now though

Sent from my g1
[G1 Android Development] skaterA223:
so are you going to port the sprint hero to your roms or make like a beta or something i would like to try that out for you
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
Like I said I'm working on it. Semi close. ....

If it were as easy as most think it is someone would have already ported it :p

Anyway I'm just having problems with some libs, got to the sprint hero bootscreen then it loops
[G1 Android Development] rynosaur:
Problems

I appreciate the King's effort to refine his ROMs, but this one needs some more time in the oven--or perhaps it's just been tweaked or optimizers stacked up too much. Besides the wi-fi issue, it lags horribly between screens--and I've given it all the CPU and swap it can take. Trying to install apps causes reboots as does opening random apps. My SDcard is only a class 4, but that hasn't presented a problem with other Hero builds. Back to JACxHEROSkiv2.2 or Drizzy's 1.5.7 Blur I go.

On the plus side: this ROM boots up very quickly once Dalvik is written. Also, the screen refresh times/scrolling/animations are very fast. I also like the Prioritizer and Task Manager pre-loaded, but don't understand the thinking behind using an old version of SetCPU.

$.02 deposited.
[G1 Android Development] skaterA223:
im sorry man i seem like an ass after my last comment i know it takes time if i only new how to do these things i would be more than happy to help but i dont
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
Thank u for your input, however I feel you find most if not all people on here strongly disagree.

O and WiFi works fine

Your opinion is your opinion though
[G1 Android Development] jdscully:
Interesting, I am using a class 4 and don't experience any of these issues. Wi-fi works without a hitch and I haven't had any market reboot issues since the RAM hack was removed.
[G1 Android Development] MattKilla:
The clock/weather widget doesn't seem to work. Well, the weather part of the widget anyway.. it's just blank with the clock.
[G1 Android Development] rynosaur:
I probably should add that I sold a G1 owner who would only use Cyanogen ROMs on trying a Hero build based on the speed and reliability of your 1.7/1.7.1, so again, I appreciate your efforts--so try not to take offense to someone saying that your update might have caused someone problems. I dislike wiping my phone and starting from scratch (like I did before installing 1.8), but I had to do it now because of the problems I mentioned with my install of 1.8.

Some Hero ROMs cause a lot of force closes, many of Cyanogen's builds caused me spontaneous reboots, and JACheroSkiv causes me occasional acore (!) FC . . . nobody's perfect. I was hoping you'd like feedback, even if it wasn't mostly positive (though I did tell you what was positive, didn't I?)!
[G1 Android Development] problem1:
load the regular weather widget onto the screen configure it the way u want then put the flip clock bak on da home screen it should work fine
[G1 Android Development] isikh:
AWESOME! Well, I can't dev, but this would be an awesome project, and if you can't find a dev. could you please take your own sweet a$$ time to get it working over WiFi eventually? :D..Keep up the good work..I will donate as soon as I receive funds in my paypal account
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
Thank you very much in advance.

Of course, I'll keep playing with it ;)
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
Hmmmm...

Hey King I was wondering if you could reupload htcsync, it's not working right from page 52, it's showing up empty
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
when I'm home tomorrow I'll do that.

Send me a tweet tomorrow afternoon/morning to remind me
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
Ok I'll do that

Ok I'll do that
[G1 Android Development] icpeanuts:
LOL. It is most likely your sd card. Have you try using a different sd card? I had a 4gb class 6 card that would do all those things you said even after format. I used another class 6 card and everything works fine.
[G1 Android Development] rynosaur:
I dunno, my buddy who switched from CM 4.11111111111 to King's 1.7.1 had it repeatedly rebooting on him within about 24 hours. He has a brand-new 16gb class 6 SDHC and you can't drive to too many retail stores and buy a no-name 16gb off the shelf. Still, I don't know his brand. I do know that certain ROMs have caused me massive ext2 corruption (not King, but another Hero builder) on every boot cycle. Once I switched roms and went with ext3 w/ a journal, all has been well corruption-wise but for once.

Yes, I've heard class 4's have some unique issues to them. Will you buy me an 8gb class 6 SDHC just so we can make sure it's all me? ;)

I used to use a 2gb Kingston miniSD card back in the ol' JF 1.33 (pre-cupcake, remember the old days?) and intial Hero ports back in the spring and I would soft boot those builds every hour because the FCs and lockups were so bad. I lost a lot of jpegs too due to corruption.

SO my answer is . . . you could be right :)
[G1 Android Development] problem1:
man my contacts wont sync
[G1 Android Development] MattKilla:
Ahhh. Didn't have that problem on 1.7, but it works fine now. Thanks, mate =)
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
im on 1.7.. and i dont think im going to switch lol.. LED's are perfect. like perfect. they freggin blink every color i thought id never see the day. the speed is perfect. no fc no slowdowns no nothing. what possibly can 1.8 give me. besides bluetooth which i dont give a flying **** about. like seriously cmon now. can someone please explain? because im not getting whats the reason people are updating from 1.7. and im not on a class 6 sdcard. im on a 2gb like class 2 or something.
[G1 Android Development] MoxFulder_CH:
using 1.8, I sometimes lose the wifi connection. It never occurs using the built-in HTC/Google rom or the JacxHeroSki
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
more optimization

newer heroled

newer wifi tether

different cc settings

its all personal pref though :)
[G1 Android Development] love1785:
I dont know King, this rom is still wacky for me in 1.8. I have done a FULL wipe and reflash and wiped the sd card partitions yet still after about 4 hours my text sound notifications stop working for no reason...Im starting to feel like there is nothing I can do. :(

ps-I had the same issue in 1.7. Still the fastest hero rom out there. Keep it up!
[G1 Android Development] ruffrider5956:
This rom is amazing i thought cyanogens roms were the best but wow this is great dont even have swap and this rom is blazing. I tried to learn how to make a swap but all the comp cache stuff is confusing can someone explain it to me or better yet show me thread that tells you how to do it. I did search but havent found to much on just creating a swap do i need to do the comp cache stuff. Could i just do with the swapper apk.

Hey King, you got the Sprint apps working right? Is there like a specific way to do it because they just won't install. I'm running 1.8 if that helps.
[G1 Android Development] jtroye32:

[G1 Android Development] tf442:
Great ROM

I have been running 1.8 for about 24 hours. No problems at all. Very fast. This is my first Kingklick ROM. Before this I was on xrom and then JAC hero and then mlign hero. They were both good ROMs

I never seem to have any problems because when I flash a new ROM I copy all the files I want to save to my computer. Format my sd card, set up my partitions again. Copy back my files to my sd card. Wipe, fix extensions and flash the new ROM. Not easy, but like I said I have had almost no problems with any ROM.

Sprint navigation works perfect. NFL and Nascar work. No luck so far with Sprint TV.

Yesterday after I flashed the ROM is seemed like my battery went down hill very fast. Today I am at 80% now and my day started about 6 hours ago. Better battery life than any hero so far.

Thanks very much, a little cash coming your way.

Anyone having any issues with the alarm clock? The last couple days mine has not gone off in the morning. If I set the alarm to go off in 10 mins or so, it will. So I am not sure if it is something that is happening when the phone isn't touched for a couple hours.

I do use the Adv Task Manager to auto-end tasks (which I just recently started to use), is there a task a should be excluding?
