Honestly, if you want to run HERO roms, you need a class 6. Hero roms are memory intensive. Many Hero roms like this one use Linux swap on the SD card. The SD CARD.

That means you want the fastest card possible so the OS can function at full speed.

I don't recommend you run this or any Hero rom without a class 6 SD.
[G1 Android Development] Datblkbro:
Damn really I just went out and bought this 4gb class 4 today.. cuz I couldnt fine a class 6 anywhere.. Dude at bestbut looked at me like I was crazy when I said class 6.. lmao

But the Rom is running smooth I mean real fast man, really hardly no lag.. Just Im running out of space on my phone..
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
OHHH... I misunderstood your question. When you said memory, I thought you meant MEMORY, not space. Big difference.

Your solution is simple, friend. Bigger card. Try a classs 6 next time too, you'll see a boost in speed. ;)
[G1 Android Development] Datblkbro:
Oh ok got u, but I think I portition it wrong my apps not going the the sd card they going directly to the phone.. this a new 4gb card with nothin on it really..
[G1 Android Development] magpie2000k:
For the record it works now Mghtyred.

It as to do with trying to partition to ext 4

as soon as I went back to just ext 3 booted straight up.

I have calss 6 SD card so runs pretty damn smooth. However get a bit of lag for a few seconds from time to time. What is everyone else running. Set CPU have people used specific userinit files etc

thanks anyway. great work
[G1 Android Development] cmsweet21:
for some reason, my battery easily goes down... :(
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
I haven't messed with setCPU just because it can be unstable with Hero roms. What I have found is the bigger the linux swap partition, the better. experiment with partition sizes and find what works for you.
[G1 Android Development] mmace:
I've followed the instructions step by step 3 times, the ROM looks excellent and very quick (1.8) but the market and browser both force close every time (browser worked 1 time but market has never worked), even with a different SD card

128Mb linux-swap, 400Mb ext3, 3.5Gb Fat32, G1.

EDIT: never mind, is was a "backup for root users" version number mix up
[G1 Android Development] Godson1227:
Idk what's wrong I don't get any notification sounds on any msgs notifications or reminders with handcent missed call and the normal sms I'll reflash the rom
[G1 Android Development] laff4fun:
Initial trouble with SIM unlocking, but everything is fine...

Thank you Mighty Max and Maxisma for all your hard work! This is my first try at a Hero ROM and now I see why everyone loves it!

Initially I had trouble getting past the "SIM unlocking" screen when I first installed your ROM, but after a couple of reboots, the phone and ROM settled down and everything is working perfectly! So, if anyone out there has locked their SIM with a 4 digit password, just be patient!

I wish it were Bluetooth capable, but I realize that there is nothing that you can do about it, until (or if) more of the Hero framework is released....

I would suggest that you add the new Market to your next release (though it sounds like you are leaving it to Maxisma to release version 2.0).

Thanks again!

btw, the Mighty Max sound/graphic at the beginning is a little cheesy, but I did laugh when I saw and heard it!

Please let me know how that goes. This is an anomaly I have not encountered yet.

Glad everyone is enjoying this ROM!
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
Well, never say never. I've been playing with the user.conf file in 1.8 "Final" and I've come up with a setup that works even better than before. Expect a MghtyMax 1.9 later today/tonight.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
can i ask the swap settings? the best i've found is 18 memlimit 60 swappiness with 169mb

then there's the virtual memory stuff...

Have this running on a G1 with a 128 MB Linux Swap, and it's super fast. You will notice some lagginess at first as everything settles in, the first time you run apps, they may load and exit kind of slow, but as it settles, this just may be the fastest I've seen Hero run. Let me know what you think.
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
1.9 is live!!! GO GO GO!!!
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
ooh ok cool. yeah idk personally i've seen CC and backing swap go faster... i know compcache is prioritized over swap... been trying to find how to only use compcache with hero. not too close yet... still a few loading screens
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
Compache was causing serious load screens.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
wow really? hmm... what were your settings?
[G1 Android Development] DarkOne951:
Eh, wth, I'll give this a try. lmao. Will post thoughts in a min.

Edit: Just read your Twitter. Waiting on new upload.
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
1.9 went up UNSIGNED. NEW LINK SHORTLY.
[G1 Android Development] Eclipse9069:
I have been running this rom with compcache and backing, and it has been running extremely well so i don't believe I'll be updating to 1.9.

However, thank you Maximus and MightyMax for this amazingly fast rom!
[G1 Android Development] rynosaur:
You're crazy man--but in a good way:) Normally, we like to download new ROMs when we see the subject line announcing such ROMs, but you obviously get very excited before a release after all you manic, caffeine, ritalin and probably meth-induced hard work (j/k). I much prefer crazy devs to egotistical bastard devs, some of which still flaunt but mostly haunt XDA. Naming no names.

Anyway, I for one thought your mighty mighty mighty max intro screen was funny, it just needs some 8-bit magic reworking by some skilled in such arts.
[G1 Android Development] crypysmoker:
argh... guess Ill flash it for a few minutes.

Maximas made my phone reboot 4 times in 5 min so lets try it.
[G1 Android Development] lightforce:
ill try this rom. Max's 1.8 is running very slow for me.
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:

[G1 Android Development] boostenmkiv:
I wiped my SD card using RA Magic v1.2.3 format fat32/ext2/swap (not sure what size swap this creates). then, did a nandroid backup, wiped/factory reset 3 times and am flashing now.

-

**update** While searching through contacts i receive android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly FC.

- Tmobile My Account now works! TMobile Visual Voicemail ALSO WORKS!!!
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
You're probably going to run into problems. On MT3G I am recommending a 96 MB linux swap, and I doubt that the auto format will give you a linux swap of that size.

You should manually set up your partitions with parted. If you don't know how to do that, there is a very good guide here.

http://androidandme.com/2009/08/news/how-to-manually-partition-your-sd-card-for-android-apps2sd/

Just follow the instructions, and do the math to set up your partitions.

Again, for MT3G I recommend a 96 MB linux swap, for G1 a 128 MB linux swap, and recommend everyone run off ext4.
[G1 Android Development] lightforce:
i only know the command in parted to go from ext 2 to ext3 will ext3 be ok?
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
read the link I just posted. It will walk you through upgrading to ext4. It is very easy.
[G1 Android Development] lightforce:
oh ok nice. If im already all flashed will i need to rewipe to upgrade the ext? Its running pretty darn nice so far lol
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
If you're happy with it, keep it. If you start running into problems with apps loading, or serious app tray lag, you may want to consider wiping again and running ext4.
[G1 Android Development] boostenmkiv:
So far even with the settings I chose that dont appear to be optimal this ROM is running GREAT...i'd like to be able to use the search in the contacts, but im guessing this is one of the many HERO roms that just isn't currently working on?

Thanks for your awesome hard work, and also for providing the link below.

I will continue to "play" and if I come across anything else I'll let you know!
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
Contacts search is a known issue in my and as you mentioned several other Hero roms. Scroll away!
[G1 Android Development] samethsom:
I'm getting bootloops on your rom, any reason why?

i wiped, wiped the ext partition, applied rom and still bootloop.

and yes i have 2 partitions.
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
That's why.

Please follow my instructions on the first page TO THE LETTER.

You need THREE partitions.

Seriously. TO THE LETTER. This is a very fickle rom. Think of it like a Ferrari. If it's properly tuned, it's a thing of beauty. If you just do whatever, it's going to be a problem.

Read the first post and follow exact directions! :) Any questions, please ask.
[G1 Android Development] samethsom:
i'm sorry, i meant 3...LOL
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
Good chance you didn't properly wipe your device. Nobody should be experiencing boot loops if they followed the instructions exactly. Usually it means that someone has attempted to flash this rom OVER another rom.

Again, go back to the first page, and start over. Let me know how it goes.
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
hmm. seeing people getting errors thats not good.. :/ how long have you yourself dev tested this rom without cc and just swap?
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
Really? One guy who posted an issue and realized he goofed, and another guy who is about to realize he goofed? Reports are all coming in very positive.

Perhaps you should try it for yourself before you start implying things like the rom wasn't properly tested?
[G1 Android Development] boostenmkiv:
As for this ROM, so far I am very happy with it. I missed not being able to use Visual Voicemail and now being able to use this is great. The ROM is responding very quickly so far and I haven't had ANY "HTC screen delays" and the ONLY force close ive had is in the contact screen search (most HERO roms this appears to be an issue)

So far, I would recommend this rom to anyone interested in a HERO rom...at least I can speak from a MT3G perspective.

THANKS mghtyred and keep up the good work.

Any chance of getting the working contact search implemented into your ROM? My previous ROM Hero3G UnI V.07 seemed to have that issue nailed down if that helps you.
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
I'll look into it! Thank you, and thank you for your support! Glad you're enjoying the rom!

Help

Can someone tell me why the screen gets and stays blurry after my phone resumes from screen lock on the 1.9 update?
[G1 Android Development] PsychoKilla666:
r u on myt3g, did you try the fix?
[G1 Android Development] PsychoKilla666:
cc has always caused slowdowns over time, but it helps in multi-tasking, which I love but honestly dont do as much as I frequently check my phone for updates, which is in my experience much snappier on linux-swap

My phone is usually on for at least 10 days to 2 weeks before I actually forget and let it die, cc is really slowing me down right now on 1.8 after a long uptime, maybe most people burn thru their batteries and they dont notice cc starting to crumble, maybe I am just picky, but linux swap has always been my preference
[G1 Android Development] mariojp:
Yeah, it worked. Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] PsychoKilla666:
no problem, glad i could point it out and help
[G1 Android Development] osupra:
thanks for creating this rom i love it
[G1 Android Development] lightforce:
damn now thats what im talkin about this rom is flying lol
[G1 Android Development] boostenmkiv:
Update

So all seemed to be working well with my phone still when I woke up this morning except that in advanced task manager I noticed that PEEP had started and I don't use twitter, so I decided to connect to the shell and delete all twitter apk's from data/app, data/app_s, and data/app-private (if there were any). NO OTHER CHANGES

I then rebooted my phone and a few apps were missing (astro file manager, advanced task manager and pandora).

I've reinstalled the apps for now and am testing if they work. I will then reboot and see what the outcome of that is.
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
Awewsome! Glad everyone is enjoying this! As promised, one of the fastest Hero roms ever!!!
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
I wonder if you deleted more than Peep.

As far as Peep goes, if you've been following my releases you'll know I'm very much NOT a fan. I'm a Twidroid man myself, and even though I haven't even configured peep to my twitter account, it would run in the background, and even caused FC issues in the experimental phase of 1.7.1 a.

Until recently, I removed Peep from all release versions of MghtyMax. However, many people complained and wanted it back. So it's back. Give the people what they want. I have no objection to, and even encourage you to remove HTC PEEP.
[G1 Android Development] boostenmkiv:
Yeah, I hate PEEP, every Rom i've used that has had it i've deleted it. I just rebooted my phone and this time everything appears to be working just fine. I didn't lose any apps this time, so i'm not sure what the issue was last time...(scratching head)

I checked my SD partitions since I used RA1.2.3's default fat32/ext2/swap and this is what it created. Think I should upgrade my ext2 partition to 3 or 4? (im not totally familiar with the differences) Swap size looks plenty big...should I reduce the size..is it possible to be TOO large?

Number Start End Size Type File system Flags

1 512B 15.4GB 15.4GB primary fat32 lba

2 15.4GB 15.9GB 500MB primary ext2

3 15.9GB 16.0GB 163MB primary linux-swap(v1)
[G1 Android Development] ironstorm:
+1 Props

Best Hero I've used so far... Love the start screen too, that's funny.
[G1 Android Development] lightforce:
i really like peep havent had any issues.
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
If it's working for you, leave it alone. If you start seeing apps load very slowly, you may want to upgrade your file system to ext 3 or 4.
[G1 Android Development] crypysmoker:
.... Amen ras recovery made your swap 163mb??? Thats strange. Anytime I have used the auto partition thing it leaves me with either 64mb or 93mb on a 8gb card. So I always do it myself and make it 128mb.

EXT2 is good if you dont use a lot of apps or widgets, but I suggest upgrading it to at least ext 3.

If you dont know how.... easy way..

Reboot into recovery.

Go to console

Type upgrade_fs

done :)
[G1 Android Development] boostenmkiv:
Yup, I guess whatever forumla he uses makes a larger swap on a larger card??

I went ahead and upgraded to ext3 using the recovery and wasn't sure if i'd have to reflash or anything but I didn't. I haven't noticed any change...is it worth upgrading to ext4? I dont see that as an option in the recovery so I guess that would have to be done manually. (which is ok if its worth it:) )
[G1 Android Development] x1tyme:
How do i push this???
[G1 Android Development] j8dailo:
how do you remove peep?
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
It involves unpacking and repacking and resigning the rom. If you don't know how to do this already, You may not want to bother. Of course if you search these forums, you will find all the information you need to do it. However, I will not provide support in doing it. You're on your own on that.
[G1 Android Development] PsychoKilla666:
couldn't you just uninstall it and adb pull it for a quck and dirty way?
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
Well, you can't uninstall it from the Manage Applications, so...
[G1 Android Development] PsychoKilla666:
o, i c, that would be a problem lol
[G1 Android Development] juangil:
am confused:confused: isn't peep=twitter? which is located @ system/sd/app_s?

if so, isn't just matter of

Is there any way to get the original hero lock screen back on this rom?
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
That would work just fine. ;)
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
shouldnt be getting reboots. If I had to guess, you didn't properly wipe reflash. Follow my instructions on the first page to the letter.
[G1 Android Development] waqas.sonic:
I did exactly as mentioned wipe,partition,rewipe etc, but npw 4 reboots in 3 hrs,

as no one else is facing this problem i will reflash and update how it goes.
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
and you are manually setting your partitions in PARTED, right?

As you've already mentioned, this is not a known issue in MghtyMax, so starting over is probably a good idea. Let us know how it goes! Good luck! ;)
[G1 Android Development] PsychoKilla666:
backup your FAT and reformat your entire sd card if you have not done so in a while, should get you extremely smooth and stable results
