I'm unsure as to whether this is a common problem or not...

I live in cincinnati. 3 days ago we FINALLY got 3G with T-Mobile.

When my phone is set to use 3G my phone's location, weather location, clock, google maps and all read that I am in Tripoli, Libyia.

Turn my 3G off and my phone is back to Cincinnati, to my exact location.

GPS doesn't seem to be working in this build, it searches and searches and searches all day long.

Any suggestions?

An issue I've noticed no matter how many times I've wiped and reflashed is that SU requests never load. For example, I go into terminal and type SU (for the first time while running after a fresh wipe/flash), and the SU Request pops up, but its all blank. There is no always allow, block, etc.. It does this for any application I've tried requiring Su, such as audio hack.
[G1 Android Development] cryptic.cell:
thanks man great build. do you know when Bt will be working?

and how do you install the no wipe? also when you install your build do you need to reformat your sd or do you just need to do the data wipe?
[G1 Android Development] gwydionwaters:
the no wipes just put them on the root of your sd card, named update.zip(or anything if you are using cyanogens or ra-dream as you can apply any zip) reboot into recovery (power+home) and select apply update.zip, then reboot.

i did a factory wipe and cleared out my dalvik and apps as well. the first time i just did a factory and it seemed fine.

at the moment i am running the bfs230 at the sacrifice of wifi/gps/accelerometer, the speed difference is just to good to pass up. and the others i have tried i get huge lag on waking up the display
[G1 Android Development] GBerg2119:
Just got a quick question on the new sensehero. A while back I was running JACxHEROSki-v2.1 and I would get tons of htc loading screens when I would back out to the home screen. But I miss hero too much. I see newegg has a transcend 8gb class 6 for only $21. With the class 6 card are those loading screen issues solved? I really want hero on my phone again but cant deal with those loading screens. Is it really a drastic improvement over the standard card? Any advice would be appreciated!
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
JacHero was the best at its time, and fortunately, Hero has gotten much better. I was using the stock sdcard and only saw the loading screen like 3 times. But a class 6 should help ;D
[G1 Android Development] gwydionwaters:
so i went back to the 10mb hack version for the dream (the dangerous one?) i wonder about the home screen lag, it doesn't happen when on usb power. only with battery power. it also doesn't happen using the bfs230 kernel. what are the differences between the two kernels and where could i find out the differences within the system while on/off usb power? ( i will ask in general android as well)
[G1 Android Development] djunio:
I dont understand it either because i am using the same thing with no lag, maybe u should edit the user.conf
[G1 Android Development] henrylouis:
first off i love this rom...the themed version is amazing and its so fast i use it as my everyday phone rom but i sometime have my notifications just mute on me...like it makes no sound even though i have sound on max...is there somethin i can do to fix this?
[G1 Android Development] gwydionwaters:
i have been playing with it a bit, i previously did not have a swap partition at all. your using backswap w/ 300mb part? i only have a 96mb swap part using linux swap at the moment. my conf is this

what is yours?

this line scaling_min_freq=384000 # default 245760

now it seems a minimal bit of time before the keys light up and the screen follows, maybe one second or one and a half...
[G1 Android Development] Lockedown:
Newb question - can this ROM be installed over a Cyanogen based ROM or should I wipe first? For the Dream.
[G1 Android Development] gwydionwaters:
i would wipe first, you will probably get force closes and the like if you don't. i first just installed it overtop another non-hero rom but decided to wipe after it acting up. wipe data, ext, dalvik.
[G1 Android Development] nagash91:
You are using compcache without backing swap but with standard swap?

I use only swap with 60 - 70 swappiness.

The problem is that ramhack or bfs300 isn't stable.. so it freaze for some minutes some times

(now I'm return to the new dwang 1.4... but I love hero roms :o )
[G1 Android Development] gwydionwaters:
yes, is that bad? i am going to try your way and see if it helps

i hope it gets better soon, but seriously it must be a power management issue. i have been playing with my phone too much lately and when the usb is plugged in there is no lag at all, ever. but as soon as it's just on battery there is issues, not with bfs230 though..

i'll get back about how changing to just swap works..
[G1 Android Development] orimps2:
Wallpapers

How can I find the wallpapers in the theme version of 1.4 I can't use the ROM but I have before and love the wallpapers.
[G1 Android Development] djunio:
i posted it n here, uma search for it
[G1 Android Development] djunio:
here it is, put it n /system/bin/
[G1 Android Development] gwydionwaters:
the default background is in system/customize/resource

bootscreen animations are in system/media/bootscreen
[G1 Android Development] djunio:
y not just use the rom, its great
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
It is pretty sweet, i find myself coming back to it since it doesnt use swap..So i recc that ya dont use it either it was redone to use compache only.Too much swappiness can kill your sd extra quickly, if you have a 16Gb you might wanna extend its life since those are pretty nice.
[G1 Android Development] djunio:
and they are expensive
[G1 Android Development] gwydionwaters:
as to the talk about the screen lag, i am going nuts! lol

no swap or compcache settings make any difference, the only thing is if it is on usb power. otherwise 9/10 the screen takes many seconds to wake up. i have been reading that it is happening on hero's average consumers are using
[G1 Android Development] gwydionwaters:
that file has linux swap turned off, backswap as well is turned off. your just using 96mb compcache?
[G1 Android Development] djunio:
did u try my user.conf yet?
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
All those widgets give the phone alot of lag, but thankfully these issues were fixed in 2.1 hero. Taylor&CC were gonna make a 2.1 once all drivers become avail i believe.
[G1 Android Development] djunio:
backswap should b on with a high swappiness, its great, try it, this rom doesnt use swap
[G1 Android Development] gwydionwaters:
nice! i'll just put up with it until they have some time :) if i knew how i would do it, but i have no idea where to start :)

but it really shouldn't be any different when on usb though, if it were the widgets wouldn't the lag still be present then? and i haven't noticed much lag using the phone, a tiny bit but i only have half the ram of a hero so i can't complain. it has sped up lots since changing to linux swap vs small compcache.
[G1 Android Development] gwydionwaters:
this is the compcache portion from the linked file

#compcache related parameters
compcache{
compcache_en=1	# enable(1) or disable(0) compcache
cc_disksize=96	# Ram swap disksize - any number between 1 to 95 should work
cc_memlimit=64	# Limit the memory usage for backing swap (cc .5x known issue-defaults to 15% of total RAM)
cc_backingswap_en=0	# enable(1) or disable(0) backing swap
cc_backingswap=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 # pointing to the backingswap partition device
cc_swappiness=100 # default 60
}

and using swap should be faster than compcache as swap just puts programs in the partition as though it were memory, compcache compresses the information into files it then has to uncompress to use again, and it still uses the memory card as much as swap with backswap enabled. depending of course on the amount of swappiness you set
[G1 Android Development] crypticlama:
any news on when Blue-tooth will be working?
[G1 Android Development] djunio:
it should b but its not n this rom, i think its not n the kernel, these settings use your swap partition for backswapping, this will make your hero really fast, trust me
[G1 Android Development] gwydionwaters:
i did try your settings, they didn't help. the overall speed of the rom is fine, but the slow wake up is the issue. i have diagnosed it as a power management profile issue or possible just a power issue(being insufficient supply to the processor), i have come to that conclusion based on no matter what kernel i use (aside from 230) unless i have it on usb the lag is there on wake up. i am trying to find the power management, i may have to try to compile a new kernel.

and those settings do not use your swap as backswap space, they are set

cc_backingswap_en=0	# enable(1) or disable(0) backing swap

and would need to be set

cc_backingswap_en=[b]1	# enable(1)[/b] or disable(0) backing swap

in order to use backswapping

i'm not trying to argue that you are wrong, just that it is not working for me :confused:

(by that i mean the lag will not cease to exist when on battery power)

and here is free, showing that my swap partition is in use with this kernel
[G1 Android Development] jf4888:
Doez anyone have a userconf that just usez Linuxswap...

compcache is absolite!! its slow!!
[G1 Android Development] phamous:
i can tell you right now it's not faster than kingklix's 2.0 hero rom.

for a 1.0 port though, this particular rom is AMAZING.

ive flashed back and forth between both roms since this one was released to see the discrepancies.

when i say "faster" i mostly mean switching between homescreens and scrolling in menu's. Kingklix's is exceptionally smooth where this ROM stutters at times and isn't as smooth in general.

But again, you're comparing a heavily optimized veteran rom against a brand new port.

Both roms are suitable for day to day use, but i'd stick with a kingklix or an mlign if you're the picky type
[G1 Android Development] markimar:
You've got some great devs behind this build.

Don't make them leave xda too, because it doesn't run the way you expect and make rude disrespectful remarks. Every rom runs differently on different phones. If ya don't like it don't flash it. ....move on. But keep you're opinions to yourself. If you don't have a proper bug to report then stop waisting our time and the devs. ..grow up!
[G1 Android Development] sykokenndogg:
I just wanted to thow up a couple comments for the dev.

I just flashed this rom from the most recent Cyanogen rom. This is my first Hero rom i've flashed to. I'm very pleased with the work the dev's have put into this rom. ESPECIALLY for it being version 1.

I simply cannot wait to see where this goes, you guys have a new tester/guinea pig for life.

Keep up the good work, and thanks!
[G1 Android Development] manup456:
This is the first drop how many have the others dropped? If people are comparing with roms that are up to like there 4th and 5th drop we are in a good spot lol....I love it!!!!

One more thing of course it feels the same if there using Jac and CC kernal how would it not,if you like there ROM better go ahead and use it we don't get paid off of downloads and I don't know about my other partners but I have not seen a dollar in donations so.
[G1 Android Development] GarlicYoda:
I have tried this rom with 64m swap with a few lag problems, so I reflashed after changing swap to 128, and so far it seems a lot better with no lag problems :D
[G1 Android Development] Shatterv2:
How did you get it to 96mb swap?

Do you have a 64mb linux swap? Any help on how to do it?

I want to fully optimize my hero!

Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] sacredsoul:
I am on a 128mb swap. I flashed this. I was getting loading screen EVERY time I enter back to Rosie. Sadly, I cant feel the speed everyone else apparently feels. But I will flash it again in the future once all the BFS kinks and other bugs get ironed out. Good job devs! Back to Kingklicks 2.0 for me. Haven't expereicenced a single Loading screen other then the one right at the start after setup.
[G1 Android Development] Shatterv2:
any help on how?
[G1 Android Development] samethsom:
hey manup, when do you guys think your going to release an update with your theme???
[G1 Android Development] sacredsoul:
Search... Edit your user.conf...

Anyway, I am using the default user.conf now so unless I'm very much mistaken, only linux swap is enabled.
[G1 Android Development] Shatterv2:
I searched but im a noob

i did the .conf settings but eh

How do i change my swap and swappiness?

i couldent find that anywhere.
[G1 Android Development] isikh:
Thanks. If you can report back awesome. I have no time to switchrom..AP classes keeping me busy, and once I tinker with something on my G1/Dream I can't stop haha
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
yeah same here, just can't stop :D. awww AP? oh screwed gotta take a few next year. supposed to be cheaper than the college equivalent.
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
swappiness is in the user.conf. change your swap by going to the recovery console and typing

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

print (find out what your partition sizes are and remember the start and end numbers for the partitions)

resize (resize your swap)

3 (swap is 3rd partition)

the numbers in brackets are your current set start/end points. type other ones as needed

I was looking for a review like this :) so i guess until there are a few more updates, kingklick's 2.0 is superior. lol i was JUST about to flash that and then looked at XDA and there's FINALLY this link showing up lol. indeed fast though. but sometimes it like lags and idk why. probably something i did with the user.conf settings lol
[G1 Android Development] Shatterv2:
Great deal of thanks!

But it says error cant have the end before the start!

um just making sure, you didn't put anything stupid like 8169 start then 8132 end right?

off topic: Yeah; they are much cheaper, but back to android dev! :p
[G1 Android Development] gwydionwaters:

just remove the .txt :)

and here make sure this points to your swap partition

Audio While In Call

hey everyone, I've searched the thread and found nothing on this... I absolutely love this hero rom because it's the only one with the least lag with my class 2 sd card but every time i get on it, I have complaints from people I am on the phone with that there is some roaring in the background. I'm pretty sure its the adjusted mic sensitvity. is there anything I can do to help this? because i really really want to go back to this rom (great job by the way) I've tried going back to 1.3.3 to see if it would fix it, but it seemed slower and had the reboot issue. so if anyone could help me, that would be highly appreciated.

Also when I'm talking to people and they hear a roaring in the background (especially when nim in the car) and can barely hear me even when i'm in a quiet place... would metus' audio hack do anything for me?
[G1 Android Development] djunio:
no problem, of couse its gonna show it but this rom does not need swap

ok, but swap is the reason y your hero is slow
[G1 Android Development] :
When can we expect a new ROM?

Do you have danger SPL?

And it works with those partitions.But do this first before flashing:

0.Get Amon_RA 1.5.2

1.Wipe

2.Repair EXt

3.Reboot recovery via console

4.Flash

5.Bam

Which one has more risk involved, and which one is easier for me to comprehend? xD hehe
[G1 Android Development] gwydionwaters:
uberfast is indeed uber fast, but wifi and gps and accelerometer do not work on g1/dream. i am using the dream 10mb hack newer source with no issues. other than some lag on wake up while on battery.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
The one that says newer source is better..Also you cant open the keyboard on the home screen...Because the HTC hero doesnt have a real KB so yeah be real careful not to have the KB open while on home..

for those experiencing text message time stamp issues

i have pulled this modified version of mms from soulifes rogers remix, not sure who did the work but it wasn't me. i re compiled the odex into a dex and put it in the apk, signed it and pushed it to my phone. works great. and as a bonus, you now can set the led to blink a color and at a speed of your choice as well as vibrate settings for mms! :cool:

for instructions:

1) download the apk to your sdk/tools directory for ease of commands

2) connect via usb

3) type adb pull /data/app_s/Mms.apk Mms-backup.apk (back up the original)

4) type adb push Mms-timefix.apk /data/app_s/Mms.apk (put the other in it's place)

that's it, set up you preferences and replace your home screen icons

the theme is not as nice, i will work on porting manups theme to this version over the next while. unless someone else can do it faster.

**missing link here**

i'm not sure if i am allowed to share this, if not let me know and i will put a link elsewhere. :)

Just flashed the rom and everything works great. Just having one issue really. The flip clock is only displaying the time and not the weather. I searched but couldnt find an explanation. I am coming from cm and I did a clean wipe. Dont know why the weather isnt showing up. It works for the weather widget but not for the flip clock widget. Anyone have a solution?
[G1 Android Development] gwydionwaters:
ensure always on mobile network is checked, or wifi, and stay on the screen with the clock for a minute to see if it loads.
[G1 Android Development] gwydionwaters:
i'm curious, what is dangerous about the bfs 304?
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
It's probably the most unstable of them all, hence the dangerous part.
[G1 Android Development] gwydionwaters:
ok, i've always wondered if it meant something might burn out or some other crazy dangerous happening
[G1 Android Development] GBerg2119:
No luck. Ive been on the screen for at least 5 minutes and Ive been on the wifi network since setup. Still nothing. Oddly I just got a random reboot.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Too fix clock:

Delete current one

then put new weather clock on home

it will ask for location

put then your done

Also dont leave wifi/always on data on because that eats up your batt

doesn't seem to eat mine any faster than running any other way. i have wifi/gps/always-on-mobile on all the time
[G1 Android Development] GBerg2119:
Alright. It works now. It cant get my exact location so I gotta use a major city close by. But for some reason in maps it cant find my location. I always had this issue when I used JacHero. Is there any fix?

what happens if you click on the little target beside where you type your location? drag the pointer to where you are and then confirm that? that is what i did
