pretty good rom. the only bug i keep getting is system force closing :(
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Did you wipe your ext? When do you get that error? Any other details you can offer?
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Taylor, how is it even possible for hero to run without swap? I remember not to long ago hero roms were struggling with swiping but you took it to Le next level.

-Best regards
[G1 Android Development] radonsg:
is it possible to run on magic 32A? Thanks
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
so:

BFS304 with RAM hack

vs.

BFS300 with RAM hack

vs.

BFS302

which one people? how do you make a poll seriously
[G1 Android Development] futangclan:
I'm wondering myself...I tried BFS300 w/ RAM hack and had wakeup issues, so now I'm trying BFS302.

LEDS

Great Rom. But I do feel empty about something. Back in the day when we first had crappy Hero roms the charging LED was a pink color. I miss said color is there a way to go back to it on this rom?
[G1 Android Development] hatebreeder209:
can anyone give me a step by step guide of how to update to this rom from JACxHEROSkiv2.2
[G1 Android Development] jamezelle:
yea i got you...here you go:D
[G1 Android Development] hatebreeder209:
thanks that helped a lot....
[G1 Android Development] Swampboy81:
Hell yeah

This is the Hero I always searched for..awesome and FAST..Thank You for all your work..

Dream 32b

Sensehero 1.4 rec image
[G1 Android Development] Markazeh:
See, thats what i mean. I've found it earlier in older versions like JacHeroSki but not in this one... So maybe it is a country problem? Any Ideas?

BTW I live in Germany and when I found Appmanager in the JacHeroSki i was in Canada.
[G1 Android Development] futangclan:
I couldn't get this ROM to flash without creating an ext partition, either. Really weird. I'd rather not use A2SD.

Perhaps I need to disable A2SD in the ROM before I try to flash? My best guess is that it is looking for an ext partition and when isn't finding one, it boot loops.
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
I've been running the original rom with 302 i think it comes with and its running great. and with no swap...amazing
[G1 Android Development] Lorennz:
Yes you can. Update this ROM (themed or not) first and then update with your own 32A kernel right after. I use Case_ 2.6.29 BFS kernel (find this on sapphire section). Anymore questions just ask.
[G1 Android Development] Yaboiaj:
Remember I said I couldn't get weather to work a while ago... lol probably not, but this time I took a screenshot as proof. These are all default settings other than the location and time zones set. My exact location couldn't be used to set the time zone, maybe thats the issue? And I can't use network values since I don't currently have service... Could that be it?
[G1 Android Development] JAWheat411:
So better to use swapper with this rom or not? if not does it use linux swap by default?
[G1 Android Development] Yaboiaj:
I saw a post in this thread by MikeTaylor00 that said do not use swapper!

It is already pre-configured to the best settings.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
You can do that but the a2sd file calls the swap file and moves the apps internal too so it is going to be harder than just removing the a2sd file.
[G1 Android Development] futangclan:
Well, it's running quite well the way it is, so I'll probably just leave it alone.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
At some point I plan to have different configs for G1 and MT3G but other stuff keeps getting in the way.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Any plans on using compache only for hero?
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
1.4 is using compcache only. I want to spend more time tuning but that was essentially the fix for the reboots. Really agressive memory swap on the sdcard seems to result in corrupt data. I only spent a short amount of time coming up with config for 1.4. When i have more time I will see what I can do to tweak it.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Oh and is it safe to use OC widget or set cpu? I heard it can interfere with the user.conf on a rom, which causes lag and stuff.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I haven't tested it. In theory it shouldn't hurt anything. The cpu is set at startup unless you manually run it again. I know it will give you some errors if you run sh /system/bin/swap -s. But I see no reason why it would cause lag, other than if the settings you use are not optimal.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
With OC widget i use this setup:

Screen on:

Min:245

Max:528

screen off:

245

245
[G1 Android Development] cephaus:
before each hero install i completely wipe my phone, except for fat32 ofcourse. I get the error at random times. also when system FC's everything else FC's. like gapps and stuff like that.

i might have found some sort of a fix because even tho you said no to swap, i decided to turn swap on anyway and i havent had the system FC in awhile

my hardware

adata 8gb class 6

512 ext3

288mb swap. alot i know.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Did you modify anything on the ROM before you started getting FCs
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Looks at that swap though its huge.Maybe some mem error?
[G1 Android Development] anthony1487:
Hey, this is my first post as I always seem to find the answers to my questions fairly quickly but I was having a bit of trouble with this ROM. For some reason after putting this ROM in my phone the Mic seems to pick up a lot of background noise, which makes it really hard for eveyone I call to hear. Is this related to the ROM or is there something I can do to change the sensitivity of the Mic. Thanks. Also, is there a fix yet for the out of order text messages?
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Might be your provider, i dont have that issue and that text mess isnt fixed yet.
[G1 Android Development] abteer:
Astro File Manager

Anyone else not able to install Astro File Manager? It is the only thing that I can say that this ROM won't do for me. Running very good with the 300 BFS w/10MB hack. Most responsive Hero ROM I've run and I've run alot of them.
[G1 Android Development] anthony1487:
When I put this ROM in my phone it already had Astro in it. But if your talking about updating it you have to uninstall it first through the phone then install again through the market.
[G1 Android Development] g1junky:
this rom is Great i've only had 1 issue and it was resolved by a reboot this is gonna be on my dream for awhile :)
[G1 Android Development] cephaus:
nope. just applied bfs300w/10mb after flash

I just went back down to 128mb
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
I had probs with that bfs...
[G1 Android Development] cephaus:
which one have you used?
[G1 Android Development] big nu:
i used 230.. so far so good.. i have a g1 with 96mb

ext3
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
300BFS+10MB so sluggish and slow

96/128MB swap(tried both)

[G1 Android Development] cephaus:
last time i used that wifi didnt work
[G1 Android Development] djunio:
this rom is beautiful, great job guys
[G1 Android Development] cephaus:
does wifi work for you on 230?
[G1 Android Development] djunio:
um still stock, uma try 304 n a few
[G1 Android Development] cephaus:
oh wow my bad. wrong person
[G1 Android Development] djunio:
BFS 304, edited the user.conf, this is blazing now
[G1 Android Development] garz:
can you post or pm your user.conf settings... i am jealous. :o
[G1 Android Development] cephaus:
me tooooo :eek:
[G1 Android Development] JAWheat411:
yeah I installed the update for the MyTouch....the 300 one. As far as what I noticed. I didn't see any difference in speed.
[G1 Android Development] ALIASADEJA:
Settings missing

I installed this rom and my settings is missing. When I try to go to home and then press menu and then click settings it force closes. Also when I go to all programs settings isn't there How can I get it back?
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
Sounds like you didn't wipe. The devs moved a lot of the apps back to internal memory. Wipe everything and reflash.
[G1 Android Development] djunio:
OK, open it with notepad++ or its not gonna look right.

Does anyone know if GPS is fully functioning on this build. Because I have copilot Live and I have this rom but I have yet to be able to go outside and try it out.

GPS is vital for me since I have no sense of direction.....
[G1 Android Development] cephaus:
seriously? :( man its always too good to be true :(
[G1 Android Development] triniscorpio:
my camera doesnt work..sorry if this is a known issue
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
camera works. did you wipe?
[G1 Android Development] triniscorpio:
yup..always. wipe, wipe ext, fix ext, wipe again, then flash. the camera icon pops up then it just goes back to the home screen
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Well, I haven't tested that exact config but I did similar stuff and it slowed down. I do want to set the page_cluster to 0. I forgot to do that for the one that I released. If you do find a config that works well send it to me.
[G1 Android Development] Bzerk1:
actually i think its wipe, wipe ext, wipe, and then fix ext. and flash.

im using the rom with BFS 304 w/ 10mb hack and its the best so far. really smooth and no FC's. been on for a day stock bfs 1.4. and been on 304 w/ 10mb for about a day.
[G1 Android Development] gophergun:
Anyone else notice that the streaming app has a tendency to disconnect you from Wifi? Very minor issue, just trying to provide helpful feedback.
[G1 Android Development] djunio:
Wow, I got noticed by the big guys, thanks man and it works very well.

No its not, I've been running these configs since jacheroski first and came out and even on jacski n drizzy colab, it never gets slow not even a little, my phone has been on since y'all released this beauty and its still flying like I just installed it. Give it a try, I know u gonna love it.
[G1 Android Development] quint9:
I'm sorry it this has already been asked, but will this build be updated to 2.1 when the Hero is updated? I already miss the GoogleMaps Navigation. Not that Im complaining. This is the sweetest ROM out there.
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
Yes this build will be updated 2.1. All signs point to a release in short order. I hope you have your sdcards ready.
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
Short order? sorry for my retardation
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
I.E. Very Very Very Soon
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
awesome....Thats what ive been waiting for is you guys to drop 2.1 because ur 1.4 is by far the best hero i have ever flashed and ive flashed alot of sense builds lol
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
Should have 2.1 soon and the themed one will take a few days because it is a big theme,my phone I bricked testing some new stuff but I am getting today so ill get on themeing the 2.1 so we can get this out soon with both versions instead of just no-theme.

SD memory card problem!

hi,

Im trying to install this rom but am having problems. My sd card cant be read by my computer's media reader(only shows up on paragon).

Any way im trying to use recovery mode's "enable usb mass storage" though it doesnt seem to work? any ideas?

Also earlier i did get the complete rom to work but internal storage was only 32mb and when i tried to install copilot it said not enough space. Does this come with apps2sd already installed?

thanks
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
If you are properly rooted and have a custom Recovery set up, as you should... then use Parted to partition your SD card. That's your problem. Create a fat32/ext3/linux-swap partition in that order and everything will work. Make sure you backup anything off your fat partition though, cuz it will be erased.
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
this build doesnt use swap i thought.....i'm not using it and it runs fine
[G1 Android Development] xdakix:
ok thanks im properly rooted and just did a windoes restore and fixed removable media issue.

Now ive done fat32/ext2/linux-swap partition using Recovery. Im now going to copy over the update.zip file to the memory card.

The process im going to use is:-

1. Wipe Data

2. Wipe Ext

3. Install update.zip

4. Wipe Data again

5. Reboot phone

Also ive heard ext3 is faster in recovery theres an option to convert ext2 to ext3. When should i do this?

**update

After doing "fat32/ext2/swap" i decided to covert ext 2 to ext3... now im installing update.zip

will this cause any problems?

**update2

yes it will casue problems(i answered myself) lol. Cant get past Hero logo keeps looping. Formatting sd card again going to part fat32/ext2/linux-swap. Leaving ext2 and then install update.zip

Hopefully this will work.
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
No what you need to do is make a Fat32/ext3 and thats it. make sure you wipe and you are good to go
[G1 Android Development] xdakix:
i dont have an option to make fat32/ext3 do i have to type it in console? how can i make a fat32/ext3 shall i use paragon? or stick with the console...
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
stick with console...but either would work... what recovery are you using?
[G1 Android Development] Käptn.Karacho:
i think wiping after installing the ROM is your problem

i am using ext3 with this ROM without issues

works like a charm

i once wiped after installing the ROM and it wouldnt boot

then i installed again without wiping and the ROM boots

do it this way

1.Wipe

2.Wipe ext

3.Install

4.Reboot

and you should have no problems

thats the way i did it

by

KK
[G1 Android Development] xdakix:
im using Amon Ra’s Recovery Image

*update

ok i used paragon as memorycard and software was already opened. i made fat32 partition (6.5GB) and i made a linux ext 3 partition (1.2GB)

now im going to wipe, wipe ext and install , reboot......right?
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
re partition ur ext3 to like 512mb...you dont really need more than that....and the way i do it ....is make my partitions.....convert to ext3....fix filesystems(just to be safe) wipe....flash
[G1 Android Development] xdakix:
is there any problem tho with sticking to 1.2gb...seems long re partioning it again as ive been at this for a few hrs now...still have to install linda install mybackup install copilot install apps and so on, so quite a few things left to do...is it necessary to lower it to 512mb?

thanks
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
In all honesty, i couldnt tell you for sure if it would cause a problem or not. But ever since ive been flashing the recommended is 500-512mb

edit*... dont know if anyone asked you or not but are you using g1? if so do you have the "danger" spl installed?
[G1 Android Development] xdakix:
ok might as well move it too 512 as ill have more space on the fat32 for files and music.

thank again

update*

One more thing when making a ext3 on paragon do i choose primary or logical disk????
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
primary......do you have danger spl on ur phone?
[G1 Android Development] xdakix:
whats danger spl?
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
if you have a g1 you have to change ur spl over to "haykuro's spl" or "danger spl" not sure where it is posted but its some where. and you have to have that first before using hero
[G1 Android Development] xdakix:
oh i think ive done that i had to change the spl to 1.33 or somthing and the hboot :confused: but im pretty sure ive done it
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
hmm i would actually like 2.1 released early without no-theme.. i just want to test it. hmm you guys think that annoying screen lag is gone? im kind of annoyed having to flash bfs 230 with the darn wifi not working and the random slowdowns it has..
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
also to Manup/Miketaylor00/Ccy

DO you guys use Zipalign for the apk's? i hear it works wonders.
[G1 Android Development] xdakix:
hi

i did the partition and the ext3 512mb partition on paragon left it then

installed the update.zip , restarted fone

still i have 32mb internal storage? is this jus for show can i still install more apps or have i jus got 32mb storage meaning i can only install 32mb worth of apps :|:eek:
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:

Oh just be patient, it will be out soon. Mike and Me and Manup are working stiffs! Can only dev when off work.
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
your apps will be installed on ur ext3 so you dont need to worry about the apps
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
PLease ccy i dont care about the theme right now.. please lmao i dont want to even use my phone until i have that rosie with landscape lol..
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Damnit lol alrighty.
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Landscape rosie ftw! on 2.1 from eugene haha its insane finally no fcs! I cant wait until you release yours CCy! welp going back to 1.4 now lol
[G1 Android Development] xdakix:
are you sure i just installed linda file manager and mybackup and its gone from 32mb to 30mb :eek::confused:
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Don't worry guys. We will have SenseHero 2.0 out as soon as it is ready. Expect good things from this. It is much faster than previous hero builds and it takes advantage of a lot of the new Eclair features. This does seem to be a relatively early build so there may be some bugs with it that we can't fix without source code. Look at where we are with AOSP. But as usual we will be providing you with the best ROM out there.
[G1 Android Development] xdakix:
Just installed copilot live 8 gone down from 30mb to 22mb :|:| somethings either not right or maybe when i hit 0mb it will continue.:confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:
[G1 Android Development] quint9:
Hey kix. I'm not a G1 guru but I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night. hehe. But really, I just went through all this stuff yesterday and I had plenty of my own problems. It looks to me like you may have screwed up the partitioning of your SD card. Here is a tutorial from a great guy on the Android Community that helped me. Go down to the part after the rooting instructions, under download, after the RA-recovery downloads. There are two different ways there to partition your card correctly.

http://androidcommunity.com/forums/f4/guide-rooting-and-flashing-hero-28995/

Hope this helps
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
oh no you dont have the new amon ra then?
[G1 Android Development] futangclan:
Has anyone else gotten a "system process has stopped working" error? I'm going to wipe and see if that gets rid of it, but was curious if it happened with anyone else.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Yes on ext4/swap 96
[G1 Android Development] code72:
For me too apps2sd don't works in this rom
[G1 Android Development] cephaus:
i get that too. i hate it :(

ext3/ 128 swap
[G1 Android Development] futangclan:
Dammit, was hoping I was the only one. 1.4 is amazing otherwise.
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
Both of you are obviously doing something wrong.

xdakix... you're problem is that you're a noob who didn't bother educating him/herself prior to partitioning your card. Sorry, but Paragon is **** and will not work properly. Study the tutorials and read up on the proper method of manually partitioning your card using Parted in any of Cyanogen or Amon_RA's recent Recovery updates.

code72, I haven't seen your recent posts, so I don't know if you're as uneducated as xdakix... but I suggest you use Parted to delete your ext partition, recreate it, upgrade it to ext3, and wipe everything and reflash. It will work if you do this.

End of discussion. This bull**** where xdakix is posting about his lack of technical skills and knowhow for 2 f-ing pages has to stop. Take it to Q&A if you can't figure this SIMPLE problem out.
[G1 Android Development] code72:
Thanks, i'll try to use Parted and reflash the rom, hoping to solve.

However i think i was never been uneducated
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
I was referring to xdakix moreso than yourself. Good luck.
[G1 Android Development] quint9:
Wow uansari1, you must have been shat from the womb knowing everything there is to know about android. Some of us have not been so lucky.

For your information, there are many misleading posts and people like you who think that everyone knows this stuff by heart. They write instructions that are vague (not intentional on their parts) and even following the instructions step by step leaves a noob plenty of room for error. Try being helpful to someone sometime instead of flaming them for not being an idiot savant like you.
[G1 Android Development] futangclan:
I think people are sick of noob posts with questions answered in the faqs/wikis. They clog up threads. I know am.
[G1 Android Development] xdakix:
well i got it working

thanks to all that actually helped...:p
[G1 Android Development] downtrodn:
Whats a good partition size for this rom? Im using 128mb and 512mb with a class 6... Could i boost the speed with a different partition?
[G1 Android Development] cephaus:
no thats good. im running the same as you and its fast
[G1 Android Development] downtrodn:
great thanks.. im new to the partitioning... So using swapper and cpu is good for this rom?
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
This rom doesnt use swapper, and yes use cpu widget if you like to.
[G1 Android Development] cephaus:
no to swapper. rom doesnt need swap, only compcache, which is enabled by default

and by cpu im assuming you mean setcpu? sure you can use that
[G1 Android Development] downtrodn:
yes, sorry. Set CPU. also what is compcache? I downloaded the upgrade files 302 and 230. has anyone had good luck with either? At times id get a system fc with 302
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
300+10mb is best for me
[G1 Android Development] downtrodn:
Thanks, ill give that a try. Just havnt yet because i have no idea what the 10mb hack is. Ive seen it all over the place in the forums but no explanation of what it is
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
i've tried BFS300, BFS304, and BFS302, and i would suggest BFS304 with the RAM Hack. it's basically a re-allocation of some video memory (10mb to be specific) to system RAM. BFS302 is most stable but a little less responsive than the BFS304 from what i've seen
[G1 Android Development] djunio:
+1 for BFS 304, only problem I am having now is I can tether my connection through usb or wireless
[G1 Android Development] downtrodn:
Thanks for the info. I have a mytouch, so ill try the 3oo
[G1 Android Development] bigslanki:
but u would release the same build???? im done with the name calling.

u can change a kernel that doesnt make it a new rom.
[G1 Android Development] Jrbourque:
and whats the difference in the imgs from hero sense to magic sense?
[G1 Android Development] bigslanki:
The boot imgs.....the ui is different no hero widgets. it has been redone besides the drawer tab etc.....

this rom isnt responsive... sorry to cause so much drama but thats def the truth about this rom not being sense for magic
[G1 Android Development] crypysmoker:
Found something else. Noticed the temp looked wrong on my weather widget then checked it and it wont auto update. To get it to update I have to go in and refresh it. COuld this be a problem with the flash? or maybe remnent of a previous weather.apk?
[G1 Android Development] bigslanki:
the sense ui is going to be different for magic users but only because Hero's sense is called rosie/touchflo, it is NOT the same rosie for MAgic
