long press any screen to add a widget then add the Advanced Task Manager widget (in Android Widgets). Should show up as "Press to end" or something like that. Click that everytime you get sluggish and it should be smooth sailing. I too had a ridiculous lag problem after awhile of use and this solved it.

MMS Issues?

I have been using this ROM for a few days now and everything seems to be running smooth even on my class 2 sd card. The only issue is when I try to send MMS it just hangs and doesn't send. Is anyone else having any issues with this? By the way, I am on Rogers and I have my APN set and am getting 3G service and SMS just fine.

Awesome ROM King, keep up the great work!
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
Hmm... this might be a Rogers-specific issue... are you on wifi when sending the MMS? cuz it only works with the mobile data connection on.

@King: ok right now the best CC settings are 95 disksize and 45 or 60 swappiness. gonna do some benchmarking with my phone during school and by the end of school should be able to report back ;)
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
yeah if you fill all 7 home screens Rosie like stops... although i have 5 screens and only minimal loading screens, and that's only after heavy browser usage. try editing your user.conf for the settings in my signature. the ones for compcache only. and don't forget to use setCPU!!! 528mhz people then 128mhz for the sleep profile...
[G1 Android Development] kassy_ok:
from what i have experienced with this rom, linux-swap is the best choice, compcache just slows things down..

96 linux-swap/80 swappiness
[G1 Android Development] craperpolt:
Has any one else had a problem with set cpu changing back to defaults?
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
So you pressed apply settings and all that stuff and it didn't work?
[G1 Android Development] cnbrian7:
This is my apn setting:

Name: Rogers

APN: rogers-core-appl1.apn

MMSC: http://mms.gprs.rogers.com

MMS Proxy: 10.128.1.69

MMS Port: 80

everything works including mms on every rom i ever flashed. not sure if ur setting is the same.

btw is the timestamp of incoming sms on ur hero rom correct or still 4 hours behind.
[G1 Android Development] ~~Tito~~:
65 cc

48 mem limit

40 swappiness

Page_cluster = 2

Dirty_writeback_contensics= 650

Up threshhold=35

And 96mb swap partiton works best

I had to reflaash cause I was messing with these settings and one conf made it way too slow and unresponsive, so this is what ive been using since yesterday.
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
Hey fans-

I really dont know what else to add for 1.9? Other then some tweaks I've made already ;)

any ideas?
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
i wish i did lol. did you get my PM? 95 disksize 60 swappiness. if you have problems with that then just forget about using only compcache
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
yah, I'm going to try one more thing though with it
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
Think I got some ideas for 1.9........ ;)
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
Lalalala

Hey King is there a way to get the grey bar back on the lockscreen, I was one of the few people that liked it. Also, whens that reuploaded sync coming?:p
[G1 Android Development] neva dinova:
Is 1.9 going to be based on the new Sprint build,
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
right here brother... Sorry I took so long, been real busy
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
Thanks, now about that grey bar
[G1 Android Development] micahansel:
So I am new at the technical modding aspect, like scripts, overclocking, piecing together other hacks, etc. WHATS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN COMPACHE AND LINUX-SWAP? What is Swapiness. I have a 16 gb, class 6 card! I really wish i could utilize it more. Everyone is telling me to just take my widgets off and use task killer to solve my slowness issue. I appreciate the help immensley and honestly things have gotten better slightlly. However I dont have 1 flippin widget on the screen, and the internet is slow as hell. Plus i have tried looking at flash on qik.com, and it doesnt view it, it just downloads it. Anyways my main point is I really would love some help in getting this Rosie up and cooking. I will blog about it, and help others. I know there has got to be more, i missing something. all you guys are saying this rom is quick. Trust me, Im running barebones and its still slow. Thanks

also can someone post how to set the user.config? settings for maximum performance.
[G1 Android Development] craperpolt:
Yeah. It'll stay for a few hours, but sometimes when I check it's back to defaults.
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
Uggghhhhh Windows is being stupid it keeps saying it's invalid. Is there another way you can get it to me?
[G1 Android Development] micahansel:
Maxing Hero/Rosie for speed

Oh, and if this would help anyone analyze my situation better, (if you have seen my recent posts on Hero/Rosie being sluggish for me) I will share my partitions: I have 15.4 gigs of fat32. 500 megs of ext3...and 202 megs of linux-swap(v1)..hope this helps. Someone please give me a recipe to bake this sucka! haha pleaassee. I am already running cpu at 128 for the low level and 568? i believe for the high, whatever the max was i forgot.
[G1 Android Development] micahansel:
I'm thinking, maybe you could add an extended menu in, for like changing the number of home screens, subfolders, etc. Also adding the extras in the settings like the new Donut basically! idk if thats even possible, but some of the donut features rock, like new Market, text to speech sythesis loader, integrated search bar, etc. Plus maybe its just mine, but an autorotate feature for the homescreen. It would also be cool to see a Full Photo Id and possible a way to cycle through your homepages. for example when you swiped number 7 it would go back to number 1 or vice versa. thanks king klicks for all your hard work. I love Rosie, i just wish i could get it working!
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
Well, the easiest fix for this would be to just call T-Mobile and tell them to increase the length of time before your calls go to voicemail.

Wouldn't matter if it rang 5 times before you heard it.... =p

I have mine set to 30 seconds before going to voicemail. That way I can hear my awesome ringtones for longer... =D
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
I keep my CPU at MAX always. This helps with the slight lag you find when you get your Rosie moving from sleep...

ALL Rosie's SHOULD be moving at super duper speed like King's 1.1 release but things went to poop after that... But he did pick up speed in other places... =p
[G1 Android Development] ultma75:
how about the new market? i dont think you will get a c&d letter from google since donut is already out
[G1 Android Development] Dror520:
Hey Chris, how do you set your CPU to max all the time? do you use setCPU or do you change it in user.conf? thank!
[G1 Android Development] jkz209:
Clear lockscreen..

I am sooo missing the clear lockscreen. the lockscreeen bar hero comes with is ugly, if you could do that one little thing then it would be soo awesome.
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
Oh. I just use SetCPU but I heard from a dev that OverClock Widget was better....

I personally just noticed Overclock Widget wiggin' out my phone after awhile... But maybe it was in my head. Never can tell with these things :p
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
To each his own..... :p

I personally like the lock screen bar or "throttle" as some call it. I think it's cool looking and matches the Sense UI which is BEAUTIFUL. =)

And I don't like a transparent lock screen cuz if I'm texting some girl and lock my phone I don't want the girl I'm out with to be able to see my convo. LOL

Keep this in mind..

If King really tried to change everything based on everyone's preference he would have like 100 versions out of the same ROM. LOL
[G1 Android Development] ChrisChavez:
In my humble opinion I would like to see a NON BFS version...? With the SUPER DUPER fast Rosie from 1.1??? Maybe? Perhaps? :D

A guy can dream, can't he? LOL :p
[G1 Android Development] jkz209:
HAHA, True dat. To each his own and to his own may he get. I personally think the transparent lockscreen suits hero better. But yeah thats just me. :D

If King could do 1.9 with the reg lockscreen and one with the transparent lockscreen... :rolleyes: that would be very awesome...
[G1 Android Development] lycoln:
---This is only for v1.8 the default (not one of my themes)---

Here's the lockscreen I said I would do, but have been swamped so haven't had the time to get around to doing it...

Lockscreen Choices.zip with 2 versions of the file needed to be pushed for the lockscreen.

**Named in .zip** <---pull .apk you want

1. With reg hero lockscreen

2. With transparent lockscreen

To Install:

adb remount
adb push [Path-To]/com.htc.resources.apk /system/framework
adb shell reboot
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
thanks lycoln... I'll try to release 1.9 tomorrow guys... sooo busy lately im sorry :(
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
1.9 WILL be something tasty ;)

finished optimizing even more !
[G1 Android Development] mikeyxmike:
thank you! i dont want to make any mistakes so id like to ask a noobish question. do i type that code in the terminal emulator or is that something i would go into my recovery and type into the console? can i not just install the apk with astro file manager or something similar?
[G1 Android Development] ganny:
No for that you connect your phone to your computer and use Command (Windows) or Terminal (Linux) to run those commands. Otherwise, for in a terminal emulator on your phone, if I'm not mistaken you can run these:

I'm not sure whether you can install it via Astro or similar, because I always tend to follow the dev's instructions so as to avoid mistakes.
[G1 Android Development] :
I wonder if there's a way to map the camera button to make it open the camera application and use it as trigger?
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
I actually like the camera button as search... but maybe we could get voice dialer and voice search? I had them in my other hero builds but cant get them to work on yours.
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
I agree with kingklick on not knowing what to add to 1.9. Told him its nothing else to add anymore the rom is perfect lol. Well im still on 1.7 i think i might flash 1.9. MAYBE i dunno. Just wanted to say great job to ya again king for all this. You finally made hero usuable for more than a few hours lmao (still Shoutouts to JAC! without him probably wouldnt have gotten this far in the first place) i still cant believe this rom hasnt slowed down nor had Major FC's and stuff like that yet. Great Job bro and just to save you the hassle unless there are some serious changes made or a new discovery is made, you shouldnt even take the time out to make 1.9 honestly. all it is going to be is 1.8 with a few optimizations here and there you know? i mean if you want to Please release it, but im just saying not much more you can really add to it ya know besides little things maybe.

To Lyc: sup dude. um question on your 1.8 did you do any changes to the actual rom itself? because i ran 1.6 reg then i ran your theme 1.6 and it was awesome but then it slowed down dramatically. i dont want to run into that again. But AMAZING job on the themes bro!! if king decides to make 1.9 ill flash your themed 1.9. also please keep the lockscreen transparent! or maybe just make two themes with one transparent and one with it not because i love the transparent lockscreen.

theres my two cents.
[G1 Android Development] Krazyone:
When did English US become a custom locale?

lol

Good stuff! Keep it coming! Running for the last 3 hours on it and it is fast! First time i have seen Rosie stay open when i use other apps on a hero rom.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
wow dude that's ridiculous! unless as you say it actually works maybe i should try it...
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
wow dude that's pretty funny.
[G1 Android Development] Krazyone:
Just realized my LED's were not working with this build... Do i have to do anything special to make it show up or am i screwed for now?

I did the normal... Waxed Dalvik, Wiped with toilet paper etc. Loaded ROM.

PS: Device is G1 w/ Latest SPL & Radio etc.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
yeah... your custom boot animation isn't bad... it's just i actually liked the Hero ones better. in fact i find yours pretty funny :) thx for making my day
[G1 Android Development] evotuned:
fonts?

First off, GREAT BUILD! I'm loving the speed of this ROM so far and not a single FC yet!!! The only thing I have an issue about, and it's hardly an issue, is why the font is different? and how to get it back to normal. This font seems to be a little wider than the Hero font in the ROMs I've previously flashed. Has anyone else noticed this? It's a slight issue because it seems to show the squares on characters that do not exist.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
no cuz kingklick disabled CPU stuff in the user.conf so we could use the profiles in setCPU and save more battery :D brilliant
[G1 Android Development] Krazyone:
Just as i noted in a previous post. I think its due to the English Locale not being US but UK. Just a theory though so dont take my word for it. :)
[G1 Android Development] DavidChill:
Does SenseUi come with this HERO Rom or is it something that's automatically in every Hero Rom?
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
Swap Partitions

Do you have to re-flash the rom if you change the partition size? i'm thinking of trying the 150mb with 100 swappiness... and would you say 150 mb swap partition with 100 swappiness would be faster that, let's say, 96mb with 60 swappiness?
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
The Sense UI AKA Rosie is in every Hero ROM and is the whole reason why it was ported to the G1 in the first place ;)
[G1 Android Development] Tomb77:
I think the sense ui(rosie?) comes with all hero roms unless specified.

edit: yeah what he said /\
[G1 Android Development] evotuned:
I thought that, and set the locale in the Custom Locale app to en_US and didn't affect a single font. :(
[G1 Android Development] Tomb77:
you shouldn't. just backup and let's know how it goes.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
ok i've finally found it has multi-tabs lol and shut down some useless processes and it's a bit faster :) but how do i remove Amazon MP3 and Footprints?
[G1 Android Development] Tomb77:
I use root explorer or you can rm them in terminal. the command is somewhere in the thread.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
oh ok thx. about to right now.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
i don't have the money to buy it... man 2 years until i can actually get a job lol. yeah but every time i try it says no such file or directory so i'm guessing i don't have the correct caps and stuff...
[G1 Android Development] Tomb77:
I am so sorry for the bone head post. king provided you with advanced task manager. use that.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
I tried uninstalling but it says can't uninstall... :/
[G1 Android Development] jkz209:
when i use the terminal commands i get an error saying that it is a read only file system??? what did i do wrong? Using kings 1.8 BO version
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
hey guys! super optimized more !

dont have that many left to do for future versions!

anyway I think you'll find 1.9 to be a treat :D
[G1 Android Development] GarlicYoda:
When is it coing out then?
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
waiting on my themer to do some touch ups to some visuals (My super optimization kinda screws some things up) then we should be G2G :)
[G1 Android Development] icpeanuts:
Great, I have been using the Hero Rom for the past 2 weeks, it works well. Thanks
[G1 Android Development] GarlicYoda:
Looking forward to the update, it's my favourite rom
[G1 Android Development] ~~Tito~~:
King, I have noticed that all of your ROMs slow down and become laggy(before 1.8 they became unstable) and they would start reloading after the first day. Do you think it has to do with the fact that I have a class 2 card?
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
yes, you should do at least 1 or 2 restart(s) a day to get your system some fresh memory. Your class 2 will get stale data easily
[G1 Android Development] ~~Tito~~:
I would pull the battery in frustration but it would go fast then like an hour or so later its the same story.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
You think 2. 0 will be the last for awhile? Or 1.9
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
I'll extend it to 2.0 then figure out what to do from there :)
[G1 Android Development] Alucardis666:
Dying to see what 'treats' come in 1.9. I';m currently trying out mighty maxes 1.9, its awesome so far. Nice and FASSSSSST
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
..Please hurry and release 1.9 lol.. :o i dont even want to flash it but im like so anticipated i must lol.. ugh!!! King bro can you at least tell us a few things that are going to be changed in 1.9? i dont want to get worked up and if you personally think its going to be the same as 1.8 ill just flash that. My god my phone is running 1.7 still so perfectly i still dont know how you did it lol this is so amazing to me.. perfect roms dude thanks for helping the community out.
[G1 Android Development] :
Well, in a perfect world the camera button would start the camera and sliding out the keyboard would start a google search prompt.

Is there any progress being made about the homescreen FC?
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
You should've seen what I did to search before I knew the camera button did that. It required opening a keyboard on the homescreen. And I search...a lot. It gives me chills just remembering it.
[G1 Android Development] GarlicYoda:
Could have been worse, you could have had a reboot button!!!
[G1 Android Development] hks18psigst:
I'm honestly going crazy.. checking like every few minutes... damn you!
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
It has much more optimization and needed fixes ;)
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
Oh ok cool

Sweet! And I thought 1. 8 was fast.

I just read lycoln's Twitter. so most likely you'll release 1. 9 tonite or tomorrow morning?
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
tonight tonight tonight !
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
Yes Yes Yes!:)
[G1 Android Development] amirnew:
did u solve the reboot problem? on the 1.7 aftem a day i have tons of reboots mainly when using the music player and lots of HTC screen after a few minutes on the browser...

Amir
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
fixeddddd 10 char
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
Doing FINAL testing......

Going to upload pretty soon ! !
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
I haven't flashed 1.8 was so good, I'm shaking
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
YES.. hurry and release..PLEASE.. :o
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
It will come my fans, do not fret ;)
[G1 Android Development] skaterA223:
swapp

what swap size is recemended 96mb, or 32mb or something else
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
back to swap.. D: CC was starting to be oral sex no slowdowns no reboots no nothing lol.. if anything ill go back to my baby 1.7 lmao or i might try out 1.8. King you shure about swap? swap always fails in the long run it seems like.
[G1 Android Development] skaterA223:
thats just me saying if i need a big swap size idk what will work the best or will swap not work good adn try cc
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
Haha in my testing I found the contrary... Either way if you dont like swap in 1.9 you can always change it back to CC with your user.conf. Use my tutorial if needed :)

120MB it seems.. I'm making sure though
[G1 Android Development] skaterA223:
so what do u recamend CC or swapp
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
Obviously, if the default is swap, and he has stated he's found it to run well... well that answers it, doesn't it?
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Alright. Your the dev im all for it :D. and yeah your right because at first i didnt like cc now i do. so yah but damn 120 mbs.. thats huge. your keeping the transparent lockscreen and status bar right? i really loved those.
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
OK fans! Its all you guys! dl time!
[G1 Android Development] skaterA223:
calm down man i didnt mean to get you mad i was just saying so i can have a better experiance
[G1 Android Development] andythefan:
:D

I'm so excited! I just flashed your 1.8 a few days a go, and though a bit slow sometimes I haven't been this excited since I found out what Cyanogenmod was, haha.

I wiped my class 6 yesterday to try to get KingxKxRom to work more smoothly. I made a 128 swap file because I thought the more the better, since then I've been reading otherwise all over the place, so I was worried it was too much.

I'm excited to know that you reccomend a 120 mb swap :D

1.9, omg!!
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
SWEET!!! goin to an indian party lol. this is the only thing that's gonna keep me going all night... :D thanks
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
haha good. I'll play more with swap partition sizes and let you all know
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
AAAhhhh too many people are downloading at one time Chrome says it'll take an hour. That really says something about how popular your roms are
[G1 Android Development] icpeanuts:
Is there anyway to improve the battery life on Hero Rom with the stock battery?

My G1 last a whole day with Cyanogen's, Hero, 60% of the day. Same usage,,

Did I say Thank you King? Thanks...
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
Just doing my job brotha ;) thanks

Use the provided app and "downclock" to 245Mhz.. Wont be too much slower, but will save you some much needed battery for those long days :D
[G1 Android Development] isikh:
Happy Diwali or Deepawali as some say ;)
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
I wasn't mad bro... just pointing out the obvious. ;)
[G1 Android Development] skaterA223:
1.9

ok ppl how is it so far i would have flashed it by know but i needed to re-formt my sd
[G1 Android Development] andythefan:
E:Failure at line 364:
copy_dir PACKAGE:data DATA:
Installation aborted.

Just tried to flash 1.9 from 1.8

Transcend class 6, 4 gig

Fat32, ext4, swap

Do I need to wipe any partitions?
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
Seems like 96 or 120MB swap partition is doing the job just fine
[G1 Android Development] joadchob:
King, do i need a special configuration with the user.conf, i tried 1.6 before and i didnt have luck as other guys maybe cause this user.conf file, i have 96MB as swap partition, so in a case i need a user.conf, please can someone share they conf file. Thank U
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
yes FULL wipe
[G1 Android Development] Fictionles:
The modified build.prop works perfectly with this build for the LED notifications. My app, by default, will catch the enabled notifications in Settings/Sounds and Display/Notification Flash.

If you don't have the build.prop modified, you'll have to launch the Preferences app and enable it for everything.
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
nope its using swap now so you are good to go 96MB should be just fine
[G1 Android Development] Joeya7x:
King this rom has left me SPEECHLESS.!

Best rom i've used hands down,

Love all the add ons without sacrificing speed.

Moto Phone Portal is AMAZING, or shall I say

AMAZKING!

And if anyone has trouble getting wifi working try flashing this BFS after flashing the rom

http://www.4shared.com/account/file/137315423/a8aabdf6/BFS230.html

Thanks a million for that Falcon.!
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
damn thing finally downloaded.. 89.5 mb never took so long lol..

flashin now.
[G1 Android Development] andythefan:
I'm a newbie on xda. I've had my share of flashing, but I have a question.

What's the point of wiping my entire device everytime I want to flash a new rom if I lose everything? I know there are backup apps, etc, but whats the best way to retain any like sms messages, or other data that the phone saves, but not on your sd?
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
What is that portal thing?
