[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] behnaam:
Modified the boot.img with the Hero kernel and ramdisk, and successfully booted Cyanogen 4.0.4 on the HERO.

It's really fast and works pretty well actually, I'll try to fix the things that dosen't work.

Things that don't work right now:

• WiFi Fixed!

• Camera - Partially fixed, still som issues

• Camcorder - Same as with camera.

• Bluetooth

• Auto APN Fixed!

• Accelerometer (Screen rotation) Fixed!

Will upload it when I believe it's stable.

[UPDATE]

Got Cyanogen 4.0.1 for 32A running on the Hero. Still work in progress, have to fix the camera, bluetooth and accelerometer before I upload it for others to use.

[UPDATE 2]

Modified Cyanogen 4.0.4 (Donut Build) so that it boots on the Hero. Accelerometer works! Camera works but with very poor quality and only black and white, no colors. Still working on the bluetooth!

See attached photos
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] NisseGurra:
Very nice. Good that more custom roms comes to Hero!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kristofizzle:
This sounds great. I ran Cyanogen Mod on my Magic and was really impressed with it's performance, would be great to have it as an option for the Hero also.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Biffert:
Great stuff :-) I would live to try this, I'm not really using all of the HTC stuff in the stock ROM, so a clean ROM sounds nice.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] oblika:
Would you mind sharing the ROM you installed (with modified boot.img for Hero) in an update.zip format (when you think it's stable enough, of course ;))?

B
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] behnaam:
sure thing, soon as I get the bluetooth and camera working, I'll upload it in a update.zip ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] paulobrien:
Nice. Why 3.9.7 and not 4.0.4?

P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] paulobrien:
Accelerometer should be easy enough to fix (check the init for the service, you'll probably need the binary from /system/bin), but the Camera is a potentially a bit more tricky.

P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] behnaam:
:)

I added the akm8793 from the Hero /system/bin into the rom and changed akmd service line in the init. But in the logcat it says the akmd service can't instalize, but nothing else. The akmd is the accelerometer service in android.

Need some hints with the bluetooth and camera if anybody can help
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] commodoor:
Nice can't wait to test it. i always wanted to test cyanogen roms.

i choose speed above sensui :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
add the libs for camera

which should be :

libcamera.so

libcameraservice.so

libqcamera.so

same with bluetooth:

libbluedroid.so

libbluetooth.so

for the accelerometer should just me som hw files located in the system/lib/hw

hope this helps!! ;)

kind regards,

~Drizzy
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MojUk:
all sounds very cool guys....shame not 4.0.4 or above though :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Tone-Fu:
Great work, mate! I'll be following this thread with interest now. It'd be great to have the cyanogen ROM running on the Hero, to really make the most out of it!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] behnaam:
Already done that, still doesn't work :/ the camera, bluetooth and accelerometer services starts fine without any problems in the logcat during boot but it doesn't work when I try them.

I'll do some more research about these things...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] behnaam:
Look at first page for update!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] furrypotato:
Wow, cool. May have to do a Nandroid backup and then give this one a try :)

Good luck with getting camera etc to work !
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gaabrysz:
Great !! Can't wait to try it :) i don't really about camera as i don't use it. but bluetooth would be nice :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lsim001:
Will give it a try once the camera is working properly. Also is GPS working?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] behnaam:
No, just tried it :/

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] deaney:
Hi Guys,

I recently won a i780 on ebay, I had a i607 and loved it so much I had to have the upgrade!

The phone is awesome, although its scratched like crazy.... The keyboard layout isnt the same as my i607 and the version isnt recognised on the samsung site.

The keyboard starts off with the Euro on the Q and $ on the W, with a message and satalite on the bottom right corner, and a % above the A. Does anyone know what keyboard layout this is?

Could I buy a new US style layout keyboard from anywhere? housing doesnt seem so available on ebay unlike housing and keyboards for say the i607.

Also, I wanted to get as up to date as possible on the unit, the version shows PXBHK2, im running windows 7 and select UK and Vista from the samsung site, when I put the version in to upgrade it says its incorrect and wont let me go any further. I read somewhere the PXBHK2 rom has a bug? and is slow... would upgrading to another work with this keyboard layout?

Any help would be appreaciated, I need to know where I can get new housing/keyboard and how to flash it to the latest version.

Also.... If i got a new US layout keyboard, and flashed a new rom.. would it still think its on the old layout? is there anyway to change this?

Thanks!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] benveq:
i dont where u can find the keyboard layout but you can try pdxbi1 offical rom from samsung.u can search on this forum there are links to download.however after u download the rom u need to do some changes in exe file.u can use hex editor for that .i dont have too much time to give all links to you but in the past i prepared a document with screenshots.search my posts ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Jay_8698:
Ok, well, yesterday I bought a T-Mobile myTouch 3G aka HTC Magic. I have a couple of questions, hopefully you people can answer them for me.

1) Do I need to hack my myTouch to install themes? (by hack I mean "jailbreak", if anyone had an iPhone or iPod touch then you know what I mean by jailbreak) or do I get to install themes as soon as I get my phone?

2) I have a two-year protection warranty with my myTouch, if I do need to hack/jailbreak it. Would it ruin that warranty?

3) Can I mess up my myTouch if I do anything wrong in the process of jailbreaking/hacking it?

4) Last question, where can I find out how to hack/jailbreak it? Can you give me a link?

Thanks to whomever answers my questions.

EDIT: One more question

5) My girlfriend had a G1, and she claims that you only could log into one of the messengers at a time. Does that change with the myTouch? Can I log into my AIM, MSN, and Yahoo at the same time without it kicking me out?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] CodeMonkey:
Nope - alternative home apps are plenty. Start with Freshface (a free basic theming application) to get a sample.

Expect some impact on phone performance if you run an alternative home app. (YMMV)

Without looking at the terms, probably yes (unless you can return it to vanilla pre-root state, or the claim is for a phone so borked that it can't be checked).

*disclaimer: I've not bothered rooting my Magic - I'm happy enough as is.*

Yes, but there are plenty of guides by smarter peeps than me here.

*disclaimer: I've not bothered rooting my Magic - I'm happy enough as is.*

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Jay_8698:
Thanks to both of you. I been searching though, and I found this:

Here

Is this good? or is it outdated? It seems pretty easy. So a couple of questions..

1) Is outdated?

2) Is there more of a risk doing it this way or the other way?

3) Is the "one-click" strategy, true or false?(as it fake)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bassderek:
This is the method I used to root my phone, and I did not have any problems. Just make sure you follow the instructions! Also, the written instructions on the page are updated a little newer than the video, so make sure you READ all the instructions. It's a little more than 'one click' but a lot easier than some methods. You can also search the android development forums here for alternate guides.

If you follow them properly, you should be good to go.

Happy modding!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dyonas:
I really like the new lock screen with the things he's put into it but I'm concerned at the battery drain I experienced while using it. As an example I can run a Hero ROM or a Cyanogen ROM for around 1 1/2 days before I get a low charge warning. After I flashed a theme over one of Cyanogen's ROMs (fresh install, total wipe) I didn't make it until the end of the day before I got the low charge warning. Use was the same as always for me so the only variable is the lock screen.

Is this happening to anyone else using it? That was the reason Cyanogen pulled the old 'new' lock screen with battery status so it looks like it's still there. I just don't see why it would drain the battery so much.

Hello everyone i have this issue my hero keeps freezeing i dont kno whats going on i thought i was my micro sdcard but i changed that today and its still freezeing at random maybe im doing steps wrong or something and i also have the Catlog files before and after the sd card change both are Transcend 4 gig class 6 micro sdhc cards so let me kno if you need anymore info thx in adavance
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
Which ROM are you on? It could be a ROM specific issue. Do other hero ROMs have the same issue?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RanT476:
sup man

Im on Hero-V1.5.5 by Drizzy rite now and i've had the problem on cyanogen's latest also i thought i was my sdcard but i changed it today and partitioned it the same way and i've tryed to switch the swappiness to see if that was the problem

could it be the radio that has corrupt files or the spl thats causeing this? and if so can i reflash them without it messing up my phone
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
Very odd. I would have thought there's an issues with read/write speeds on the swap partition, but that shouldn't happen on a class 6, and as you have a new card that pretty much rules out bad sectors. I'm assuming you don't have a user.conf and userinit.sh...if you didn't swap would not be active on Cyanogens ROM, so it's not a swap issue. Was it on cyanogens experimental ROM (donut based)?

Could you give a little more information about these freezes? When they occur, how long they last, ect.

The radio and SPL could be reflashed, I would wait for other peoples suggestions first, as there's a risk of bricking every time you flash the radio or SPL.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RanT476:
"I'm assuming you don't have a user.conf and userinit.sh"??? umm it happened on 1.5 and 1.6 builds but it never freeze's cause when i have another 1 gig sd card regular sd no class speeds it never freeze but when i use my cards with more gigs and with swap partitions sometimes it freeze's on start up sometimes when im puting the phone into sleep sometimes when i come out of sleep sometimes when i turn my music off sometimes when im just playing with it to see if it slowed down(if i get that far....) but like i said whats weird is it dont freeze when im not useing swap i guess i dnt kno man

[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] andjohn:
Hey Guys,

Ok, so I was inspired a bit by a Steampunk website to make a dialer that's a little more 'old fashioned'. It's for CM 4.1.11.1 and I quite liked it. I haven't made screenshots yet, but I a mock-up of the dialer. It's what you should see on your device. I took the dial portion from Chrome by Moonspoon as I didn't have the patience to finish it before sending it out!

Check it out, and let me know what you think! IF YOU HAVE IDEAS LET ME KNOW! :)

Installation: You must adb push the contacts.zip into your CM 4.1.11.1 to make it work.

For adding it to your phone from a COMPUTER WITH ADB try:

adb push C:\%SAVEDPATH%\Contacts.zip /system/app/Contacts.apk

For adding it on your phone, try:

mount sdcard
mount system
cp /sdcard/Contacts.zip /system/app/Contacts.apk
(or try [B]mv[/B] if [B]cp[/B] doesn't work)
reboot

You shouldn't need to rename it, you can do it all in one command like I did.

Thanks david1171 for the code for on the phone and the compliment :)

INCLUDES:

Only the dialer
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] david1171:
first off, that button looks amazing. like i will have to use it later on today it looks so great.

i don't know if these terminal commands will work (i will test them when i try this), in the recovery console (with file on root of sdcard (also you should tell them to change the .zip extension to .apk)

mount sdcard
mount system
cp /sdcard/Contacts.apk /system/app/Contacts.apk
(or try [B]mv[/B] if [B]cp[/B] doesn't work)
reboot

i will report back later today on this.:)
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] andjohn:
Nice!

Anyone know how all the themers are making screenshots? I'd make one if I knew how... :) And ya, I searched. Maybe my -fu isn't as good as it should be??
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] david1171:
if you have the sdk and adb set up you can use ddms in the tools folder of the sdk or you can get screenshot off of the market. one is free, the other isn't. i have both but use ddms because i can save the pictures directly to my computer and i find it a little easier to use in most scenarios
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] andjohn:
Ya, I have the sdk installed now, however it's not allowing me to take the screenshot in ddms. Framebuffer failure? Anyway, that's fine. I'm going to work on another version as well that kind of looks like a gold/bronze typewriter thingy with similar font...anyone is welcome to make a screenshot or suggestions. I don't think I want to make a whole theme, just a better dialer then the ugly stock one...so I added a mock-up of the dialer. Why spend a hour fixing something when you only need 5 minutes in paint? :P
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] hettbeans:
There isn't really anything...Victorian about it. Or Steampunk, for that matter. It's just a script font -- and a lot of black.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] bmnaccounts:
My thoughts exactly.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] DavidChill:
is there a way to make it look like a Rotary Dial phone? i think that would make it look pretty interesting.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] andjohn:
Re-read OP

Like I said above, it will eventually look like something from an old typewriter. Sue me for wanting to release it early. As for the rotary dialer, that's wicked! However, not possible without making a whole new app. *shrug*

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JYousuf:
Hi Guys

From where i can mute /disable the camera shutter sound, its so loud, i want to disable it.

My 2nd question is, whenever i take the picture from Xperia, the camera is so slow in all the means, why is that so? Either i start the camera, it nearly take half minute to get ready, If i take the snap after pressing the camera button, the snap is caputred after around 10-15 second, so for the meantime i have to keep the camera in still positon, otherwise if i move it i get the blurr kind of image.

And in the end if i fortunatley able to get some clear picture, closing the camera or to take another pic, i still have to wait for for 20 seconds.

Is there some software/ patch which can remove these problems? or i will appreciate the guidance of experts.

I am using Xperia( Made in Taiwan), with latest ROM version from Sony Ericsson.

Thanks

Jade
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rudegar:
in your camera settings

shutter sound click "snd.1" and change it to off

your camera settings also include various other settings you can change

to make the camera more like you want it

like many people get confused by the while click on screen where you want to have it focus

turning that off would prob help you

maybe all autofocus if you want it to take pictures fast
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JYousuf:
Rudegar,

Thanks alot the 2nd problem seems to be exactly what you pointed out. I never knew that before :),

But for the first question i asked about that Camera Picture Capture Sound, i am able to found the option for it, but i cannot found the option to mute it, infact i found 4 sounds option over there, and there was no option for "No Sound" or Mute , neither browse option to select any other sound file.

THanks

You can always make an "empty" sound file and replace the default one for the shutter. It is somewhere in the Windows folder IIRC.

Everytime i press the camera button to click a photo, the screen turns up blank(dark grey).
