I have been running 1.1 since it's release, and the only issue I have experienced is that trackball did not glow when receiving message or missed call. The patch to 1.1.1 resolved this issue.

This ROM is my favorite!

Can't wait for the full version, so that I can modify it with my custom wallpapers and ringtones.

Great work Case!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] perbu:
I agree wholeheartedly. Great work! I've been running around work getting co-worker to try out different ROMs and the Casense ones have the most satisfied users. :-)

Per.

Okay, so I might not be providing BFS310 kernel after all. Just compiled it and it's very unstable.

... hey iv noticed the Sms widget sometimes just stops updating... its happened to me a couple of times and until i delete that persons full thread it doesnt update again...

anyone have this issue?

:S

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Higgins12:
I can verify that , it happens sporadically just from Time to Time ... the Phone looks like hanging but continues after some seconds just to stuck again. Dunno if the CPU use goes to 100% during that time. The only Solution than is to pull the Battery.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] than33:
It happened to me when I was using overclock widget.

Case_ you are my Hero !

Since update 1.1.1 this rom is all snappy and awesome !!!

Before it was really laggy and slow and i often had kernel panics...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] strife242:
Case, I'm getting tired of the "no slots left" message.

If you agree to email the files to me I'll host them for a while.

Got a no limits 100Mbps link to use (well, I might limit at times if I need the bandwidth, but that kind of reduction in speed will be sorted out with QoS so links will still work).

PM if interested.

Edit: And by "e-mail" I ofc mean FTP :D

Friend of mine want test this rom on G1, This is possible to flash this rom and flash cyanogen kernel with it? It will work?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] katsuya82:
I'm using the latest 1.1.1 for a few days, there is one thing I've noticed.

Whenever I try to wake my device, the screen flickers like old style tv, this never happened on myhero.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] suur13:
I have Magic 32B and I would like to use Sense UI with Bluetooth (for file transfer mainly, not stereo, which works in Qtek 32B ROM already). Therefore I plan to flash 32A radio and use some 32A ROM with 2.6.27 kernel.

Your ROM looks best (not too customized, everything I need is included, people claim it very stable and has CC/swap support). I know that I could just use swap partition in SD, but it means that I have to partition my main SD again and sometimes I switch between SD-s...

So, my question is - can I use CC instead ?

Since I plan to use 2.6.27 and no BFS, there should not be any stability issues, or ? Would you recommend it overall ?

How's the speed (compared to using swap) ?

To enable it, shall I just install the ROM and then enable CC in user.conf ?

Thank you in advance !
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Case_:
I'm not sure if CC works on 2.6.27 just by changing the user.conf. Yes, I probably should know, but I don't :( On 2.6.27 there's CC 0.53, not 0.6 like on 2.6.29, which is activated in different way using different commands. Nevertheless, I think using "full" swap is slightly faster than CC anyway. If you don't want to repartition, you can use Swapper app (on Market), which allows you to set up a swap file on your existing FAT32 partition, similar to how you set page file in Windows.

An annoying bug has just surfaced... Sometimes my alarm won't go off. I have set a repeated alarm for weekdays when I'm going to work. Yesterday it worked fine, but today I overslept. The same has happended 3 times the last 2 weeks, but I am not sure if the alarmhickups occurs on the same days every week.

I know I have read many post about similar issues, but searches (yes multiple) did not result in finding a solution.

Does anybody know where I can find help, or even better, if there is a fix to this?

Case: Are there any updates arriving soon? What are you working on?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dirt77:
Just add your Clock to ignore list in kill apps software (like taskpanel etc.) this is the problem not the rom
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] betelgeuse74:
Amazingly I haven't tried that :eek:

Added to Ignore List in Taskiller, so tonight I'm gonna sleep like a baby, and not be afraid to oversleep AGAIN!

sdcard format

can you format sd card with this rom??
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] suur13:
Finally tried your ROM (with swap file) and I must say, I'm impressed.

First I tried with 2.6.27 to have the bluetooth support, but it still says that "paired, but not connected" and file transfer is not possible. So, I gave up...

Overall speed with .27 was average - not bad, but just like any other Sense ROM. Even with 96MB swap and 60 swappiness (used the user.conf editor).

Then, without BT anyway, I switched to 2.6.29BFS. Did not wipe.

Wow, what a difference the kernel makes. That's the fastest Sense I tried. Even better than eVil's nano.

Just one very small issue - wheather data does not show up on the default Clock Widget. My location and Whether app are set up correctly and they work fine. Then I bring up the widget, but it does not work (only clock works).

Another question - for ogg support on ringtones you just copied the files in ?

No additional tweaking were needed ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] feicher:
Thank you

I am on this rom now for more many many days (actually since it was published), which is something I didn't to before. I kept switching ROMs all the time as there was always something simply not right: Keyboard, Dialer, Stability...

CaSense 1.1 is the most stable and fasted so to say best experience so far. This is what the "magic" was meant to be.

I have both kernels on my SD. Before I have to drive a longer distance, I switch to .27 for Bluetooth (Handsfree). After Driving I switch back to .29BFS for speed as no wipe is needed.

After several weeks speed begins to degrade slightly. I strongly recommend the use of "CachMate" which recovered around 30% of speed (no: no stocks and I am not the developper, it's just a good app :)).

Please continue your work... and HTC please pay this guy (Case_) a salary as he makes your device worthwhile.

Regards,

F

PS: any news on .29BFS with bluetooth or moving apps to system?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Case_:
Having been quite overwhelmed with work and personal problems lately, I pretty much didn't touch Android stuff for several weeks now. I'm sorry for that. Might get a bit better now (but sadly, I'm not promising anything). As we're seeing the first Hero Eclair ROMs surface, I think I'll just skip right to them now instead of devoting time to "polishing" up the "obsolete" Cupcake. And as for moving the apps to system - I'm still not convinced it's actually worthwhile - I haven't been able to spot a noticable difference yet.

Noticed one intresting thing - when I connect my phone to PC (Win 7 final), it automounts SD card as USB disk in Win Explorer. Never seen this before with Android... not that it bothers me much :)

Also, can anybody help with this ClockWidget issue (wheater data does not show up) - I tried also HtcClockWidget.apk from MyHero & Gyd ROM's, but same thing...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Case_:
Weird. Doesn't happen to me...

Mentioned a few pages back by betelgeuse74:

"After I enabled the clock widget, I configured my hometown as default location, and everything works fine. It was the first thing I did, so I have only WiFi enabled. No APN settings configured, but everything updates as normal, as far as I can tell."

So you might want to check that.

CaSense 1.1.1 is stable and smooth.

I keep using Hofo 3.0.7 for a while and change to 1.1.1 because i want to use A2SP, but a2sp is disable at this version. is there some way to enable it?

i'd tried to change by userconf edit but useless. can someone help?

Thank you very much.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] betelgeuse74:
Hi Case

I have been experimenting with different ROMs these last couple of days to see what the developers have been able to do with the official Sense ROM for Magic.

I flashed Magic GyD 2.1 yesterday, and it is a great ROM, but compared to your 1.1.1 with 2.6.29BFS kernel it is a slug...

Does the kernel make that much of a difference?

Since I don't use Bluetooth, I think I will convert back to your excellent ROM.

I hope you feel motivated to continueing your work with CaSense ROM. It is my definitive favorite!

Thanks for your effort!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] pagubg:
It is my favorite too. I have tried many roms, but this defenately this one beats all of them :) Fast and stable, i hope Case will continue to work on this rom.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] suur13:
It's repeatable and does the same with Windows Server 2003 too.

But once I do 1 Mount and then Unmount cycle, everything goes back normal. Until phone reboot.

Another strange thing with USB. I was never able install correct drivers and use ADB with this Windows Server 2003 (as USB disk it worked fine tough). I had to always use Windows 7. And so with every ROM I tried (also stock one). As I had some connectivity problems also with IPhone, I tought that this is Windows problem.

Until I faked my Vodafone Magic to 32A. Suddenly Server 2003 found the phone, installed drivers (automatically) and I could use ADB !

So with your ROM with original 2.6.27 kernel.

Then I switched to your 2.6.29BFS (and got massive speed increase). And Server 2003 does not see the phone anymore. Can't use ADB.

So I have to use Windows 7 again.

OK, thanks, it worked !
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mstolpner:
Hi,

I tried this ROM and I like it very much. It's fast and smooth. I think it's been said 1000 times already. :)

However I have a problem that nobody else seems to have. I do not have data connection. I must have done something stupid. :) WiFi works just fine. I am on Rogers:

Sapphire PVT 32A ENG S-OFF H

HBOOT-1.33.2010 (SAPP10000)

RADIO-3.22.20.17

Swap 64MB.

I tried reinstalling it from a scratch. I would appreciate your advice.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Case_:
Check your APN settings, perhaps I've got Rogers APN wrong (or missing?).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mstolpner:
>>> I added APN config from a post in this thread but it did not help. It's a pity as I really like this ROM. <<<

My bad, I tried adding the APN once again and it worked. Thank you for your help!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] phunkycow:
I'm about to test this Rom, heard a lot of good things about it :-)

Btw Case_, mind uploading the files to mediafire instead? Afaik, there are no slot limitations or wait time!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Case_:
Weird, as the default APN list should contain exactly the same APN settings for Rogers like the ones you linked to (I've changed the Rogers settings back then according to that post).

I'm not very fond of Mediafire (or any other file sharing server for that matter, but Mediafire especially), but I'll see what I can do.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] phunkycow:
Cheers!

PS: Been using your ROM for a day now, I'm in love with it :cool:

Can I put the sense of ported Android Diamond 1.6 and 2.0
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] amjad_2020:
Thank you for the new update ^_^
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Case_:
I'm very sorry to bring this old thread back when there's tons of much more interesting things going on these days, but I finally got to what I was planning for about two weeks now, which is to deliver one last update to CaSense 1.x ROM to finish off nicely at 1.2, not at that ugly 1.1.1 version number ;) Perhaps there are still some people using CaSense apart from myself ;)

Nothing much changed, though. I was pretty much asked to do this update because of the wired tethering support, so there it is (sadly the guy who asked me to do that didn't even reply if the update works for him in two weeks, but it works for me, so...fingers crossed.)

As I mention in the changelog, because changes in this update are pretty much kernel based only, there's no 2.6.27 version and as a result, bluetooth doesn't work in 1.2 once again. So if you need it and are still using CaSense, just stick with 1.1.1 and 2.6.27, you're not missing much.

There's also one small add-on for all CaSense versions available which changes the default analog clock to the Pulse clock (see screenshot in the second post).

This is for sure the very last update to CaSense 1.x. I'm still planning to put together some kind of CaSense 2.x based on Sense UI 2.0 or 2.1 sometime in the future, but that won't happen until there's a stable and fully working (and hopefully, official) Sense UI 2.x available.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] scylla69:
Hi,

thanks for the rom.

I've just installed v 1.2

it's really good [fast, smooth and bug less (at least for now ;p) ]
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Dave778:
Hi, so is ext4 is now supported? also on 32A is it nessesary to have ext3/4 + swap or should I just use 1 fat32 partition?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Case_:
The 2.6.29 kernel has ext2/3/4 support compiled in as always, but the ROM doesn't use app2sd by default, so your ext partition is ignored by the ROM (or at least it should be).

Swap partition, on the other hand, is supported and enabled on the third partition, if you have it on your SD.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Dave778:
So if I just have 1 fat32 partition & no ext & no swap, does that mean its all good? I find swap sometimes slows u down a bit. is it mandatory to have swap with this rom? Maybe u could put your recommended partition/swap settings on the first page :D

Thx for sweet rom - Updating
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Case_:
It shouldn't be mandatory. You should be fine with only FAT32 partition.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Dave778:
OK great, thats what I needed to know.

THX
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alexanderpl:
great work on this. one thing that bothers me is when its locked i can unlock it with MENU button which kinda wasnt dedicated to do that (no hint on lockscreen). can I disable MENU for unlock and use just the sliding curved stripe method ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Case_:
On my phone it behaves like this:

If I don't have swipe pattern enabled, then one press of Menu button shows me the lockscreen and second press of the Menu button (or swiping the lockscreen handle down) shows me the home screen. No, there's no hint about it - that's Sense UI thing, I've never seen Sense UI ROM that shows such a hint (the regular Android build does indeed show it).

If I have swipe pattern enabled, then the second press of the Menu button or swiping down the lockscreen handle shows me the screen with the swipe pattern points and pressing the Menu button one more time doesn't do anything, I have to draw the pattern.

So if it does work differently for you, I really don't know what's causing that. I'm using the regular CaSense 1.2 ROM I've uploaded and shared here, no custom modifications done to it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alexanderpl:
That's exactly how it works for me. I won't bother then anymore :)

Thank you !
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Higgins12:
Downloaded , installed , tested ....

Great work case :-) , the ROM runs well after the first impression , no hickups during typing SMS and scrolling is quiet fine (even with BFS) GPS works , Market works .. all good.

Bluetooth filetransfer isn't working :-( which is all for what i use Bluetooth , sorry can't test headset as i don't own one , no need for it.

Again great Work mate :-)

Oh yea just simple Question: Why it stills shows "HTC Hero" under System Status ? Shouldn't it state "HTC Magic" ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Case_:
Krzysiec: "And can U tell me what is LOG ? ("Log is disabled")"

Kernel log, used for debugging phone/apps. In other words, if you do "adb logcat" from your PC (or "logcat" from the phone), you get an error message, not the log output.

snakejoe: Default is 245-528. I may change it to 384-528 in the future if it seems reasonable. We'll see.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Dazog:
Multiple entries are listed for ringtones.

They work fine they are just listed a few times each, should be an easy fix :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Case_:
Might be because the fix for protected apps needs the ROM to be signed with Hero keys (if I understand correctly how it all works together ).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Higgins12:
No big Deal just was wondering , i have no Idea about ROM Building so i won't complain :-D

Another good thing , the Trackball glow is working in Handcent SMS (wasn't in the last MyHero Release) anyhow it doesn't glow every 10seconds but i guess that's more a Handcent Problem not the Rom
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] str4vag:
first time ever on a hero build. i must say i like it. been going smoothly for now.

we'll see if it keeps up.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mike1986.:
Amazing work! You made a really good stuff! Just one question here as I am wondering about that since a long time ago. Is it worth to create SWAP partition bigger then 64MB? F.g. 128MB? And is there any reason to create extra ext4 partition to install there applications? Wouldn't it slow down those apps? Thanks!

BTW creating SWAM partition using recovery is simple? Just select there to create it and it's done or I have to do something later? I do it before flashing new ROM or after?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
same question do we need an extra ext2/3/4 as 2nd partition (i.e. FAT32+ext4+linux-swap) --or-- do we just create a FAT32+linux-swap (say 64mb)?:confused:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Case_:
I wouldn't recommend swap partition bigger than 64MB or so, but there are many differing opinions on how big the swap should be and how the swappiness should be set, so take it just as my personal opinion, nothing more.

Note that you have to configure the ROM manually to use swap/compcache, it's all disabled by default (as I've mentioned in the first post).

As for ext2/3/4 partition, the answer is also in the first post - I don't recommend App2SD, in my opinion it only slows 32A Magics down. Therefore the ROM is not tested with ext2/3/4 partition AT ALL - I didn't want to bother with repartitioning my card, sorry. Might test it eventually, but for now, once again, I don't recommend it. The kernel has ext2/3/4 filesystem support, though (also has read-only NTFS support compiled as a module). I'll rephrase it in the first post so it is clearer.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zomp111:
dosn't work on my 32a device :-( lots of errors!

tried to update from myhero 1.1.3, going back to that one....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
did you remmeber to wipe first before installing CaSense1.0? why kind of errors do you have?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dBartoz:
Did you wipe?

Anyway, I cast a vote for a logcat-enabled kernel update..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mike1986.:
OK, thanks. So I will not create ext4. It's not really needed I think also. But... I'm a noob in this and can you explain what does it mean to "change that in /system/bin/user.conf" What am I suppose to change? And after I change it do I have to create SWAP partition or before it? Wipe and reflash ROM after creating SWAP? May I ask for step by step tutorial in few points?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] than33:
About clock speeds. I just downloaded Overclock Widget, which is free. Then I set speed to 384-528 for screen turned on and for screen turned off I set 128-245. Thus I have fast device when I use it and econo device when I'm not using it. Works great!

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Case_:
There's plenty of info available on this on XDA and I don't have much time anymore right now, so very short guide:

- definitely no wiping

- can be done either from recovery or "on-the-fly"

- connect phone to PC and mount system as writable

- adb pull /system/bin/user.conf .

- Edit the user.conf file you just downloaded to your current dir from the phone to your liking and config

- adb push user.conf /system/bin/

- adb shell sync

- restart phone

I might create a few pre-configured user.conf files and better guide eventually, but not now, sorry. And as I've said, there's plenty of info available.

Edit: Yes, good point, you can of course also use Swapper and just forget about user.conf. Just pick your poison ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
one question about partititioning, does it format the card i.e. erase everything? i just want to add a swap partition, but dont want to have my entire card formatted because of it. sorry for off-topic, but hope its a quick reply.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mike1986.:
Thanks, now I know everything :) Just two last questions:

1. Are you going to release some 1.1 version of this great ROM soon? It's not that there are some bugs or something but I want to flash my phone and don't do it again for next half a year :p So if there will be some update in few days that I prefer to wait a bit.

2. Maybe you can decide to enable this wipe by default so it will save you from other people asking for how to do it...?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zomp111:
can't even start it up now... nope, didn't wipe :-)

maybe not LOTS of errors, but forceclose of 3 different progs, something about .provider and touch input and.... ? don't remember....

on my way back to myhero 1.1.3 - maybe I will try 2.0.0 + patch, but think i´ll wait for full rom myhero 2.0.2
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Higgins12:
You HAVE to wipe if change to this ROM , otherwise no go ... pretty sure about that.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] TheMorpheus:
