Post
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ruskiyab:
I have gone through several applications from the MR release and optimized the images inside in an attempt to free up memory and/or speed things up a bit.

Some things benefited more than others, for example, Rosie.apk has lost around 7MB.

This will only work on software version 1.56.651.2. Don't know what version you have? Go into your settings -> About and scroll down to Software Version

Anyways, here's a list of things that have been optimized:

Folder: /system/app/

Browser.apk
com.htc.WeatherWidget.apk
htcContacts.apk
HTC_IME.apk
Maps.apk
Phone.apk
Rosie.apk
Settings.apk
Weather.apk

Folder: /system/framework/

com.htc.rersources.apk

Also included in the zip are the animations and boot screen from the Gutted rom

The zip is signed and can be flashed from recovery

This has been tested on the following:

Fresh 0.4b, 0.5d, 0.6

Unofficial MoDaCo 1.2

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for what you do with you device. If you break it, it is solely your responsibility.

Always remember to do a nandroid backup before flashing anything

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jerrygon:
Installing now... Will let you know how it goes...

Edit.... Wow this really made a noticeable difference. Running really nice on a stock rooted phone. No errors as well...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] knx2:
Installed on Fresh Rom. Works good no errors!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] minorsecond:
Wow! Just flashed this and it's great. Apps seem to load quicker. thanks for the work!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ekinnee:
How are your optimizing these? Just the graphics inside them? have you tried to use zipalign from the SDK on anything?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ruskiyab:
You are correct, just the graphics, I haven't looked into any other methods yet
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lostnfound53:
I just flashed this over my stock/rooted image. It does indeed load and run very fast. I was wondering what changes you made to the Settings.apk? I also did notice that the transition effects changed to a fade-in effect. Was this also the result of graphic optimizations? Either way, great work!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Spunkzz:
excellent mod. really enjoy the fading in and out and works alot quicker!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] swaze:
Has this been tested on the Gutted ROM?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] packetlss:
For further optimization use zipalign on the apks. This allows dalvik to mmap the files for further speed improvements.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Saltwater Hero:
I like it alot but I get a ton of force close errors cant even really do anything. Installing from the orignal modaco rom.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] QuiQNeZZ:
Ok I don't know if it was this update or the 1.2 unofficial but my dialer now vibrats and I can't figure out how to shut it off.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mkeyslehman:
My dialer vibrates as well, running Fresh .5d, would also like to disable it.

Looking forward to giving this a shot
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercado79:
The dialer started vibrating after the official firmware update from Sprint/HTC. I don't see any option under settings that allows us to disable it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kylez64:
thanksa bunch I was really hoping someone would slim Rosie down a bit
[Hero CDMA Android Development] magicalan:
i keep getting the application touch input process com.htc.android.htciem) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again

EDIT

aparently i cant text anymore?! :( help!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ruskiyab:
To those people who are having errors, are you using this on a rom that has been updated with the Sprint Maintnance Release?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] magicalan:
no but i never had a problem XD
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bray424:
By optimizing the images is there a downgrade in quality? Or is there no downside to this mod?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] brock1909:
Thanks man. the animations are awesome. and it faster, i didnt notice a change in available memory, but i dont really care.

Thanks again!

i had removed the Browser, so this reinstalled the .apk. just had to go in and remove it again, JIC anyone has removed one of the files, just go in and remove it again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Saltwater Hero:
Thats the same thing that is happening to me. Also my phone is not updated its just running the first modaco rom
[Hero CDMA Android Development] brock1909:
Probably should have updated first,I would assume the packages are updated.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alcaron:
Not bad, not bad at all. Using it with Fresh 0.6 from today.

LOVE the new lockscreen...thing...lol.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
Working great on Unofficial modaco/obelisk79 1.2c. Texting works as well.

Nice job!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] magicalan:
what new lockscreen thing i dont c it o.o
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 2.0t03speed:
It's the lock screen from the gutted rom i think. It's a black box instead of the normal arch or the clear lockscreen. Ive been running this since last night with fresh 0.5d then updated to 0.6 and re ran the optimizations ontop of that and everything is running great. Thanks!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ruskiyab:
Actually, its the eVil lockscreen that I ported that the gutted rom also uses.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] VoXHTC:
WOW!!! Highly impressed! ( I guess it doesn't take much ) Not sure what you did or what "optimizations" you did but this fantastic. Very fast and the zoom on the apps is the best! I think I might prefer my clear lock screen instead but I'll give it a go.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] swaze:
Has this been confirmed to run on the latest Gutted ROM?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thecodemonk:
Confirmed to run great on stock rooted sprint hero. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zikronix:
i dont see the animations how do i know what im lookign for...ive seen them before can some one give me an example app to test with
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lv2bll:
Just curious on how to install this? Do you flash this or do you just install over the current apps or what? Or. Is this some kind of Rom? I have no idea.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ekinnee:
I don't know how to create the signed zip file, but I did test zipalign on the files included. All of them report that they contain files not aligned on a 4 byte boundary.

"zipalign -v -c 4 Rosie.apk" to test this

"zipalign -v -f 4 Rosie.apk Rosie1.apk" to do the alignment. Then rename them correctly and re-zip and sign.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ekinnee:
Copy it to the sdcard, boot recovery, use "choose zip" and select the file.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lv2bll:
so it wont mess up my fresh .5 rom, it will just save over it? okay ya learn something new everyday
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ekinnee:
I installed it on a stock hero that had only been rooted and a few apps removed.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LeftonJackman:
Running nicely on Fresh 0.6! Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] swears11:
So, you flash this the same way you flash the Fresh rom? Except you do it after, right?

Or do you choose the update option?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] daafisch:
Same way you would flash a rom.

Boot into recovery and select the correct zip file
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ruskiyab:
I have gone through and zipaligned everything. About to flash it and see how it goes. If all goes well, I will post the link shortly
[Hero CDMA Android Development] phredphish:
I'm using this with fresh .6 and it works swimmingly. Look forward to the zipaligned version.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TOKiMONSTA:
How would I go about to get the old weather widget back? I had the cleartheme on but now it has about 50% transparent window behind the weather widget. Do I just find the old weather widget and push it to the phone through adb?

EDIT: Nvm. Just flashed the theme again and it worked. Thanks for your work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ekinnee:
Just updated to the zipaligned version. Works well.

Zipaligning isn't noticable, it just allows more efficient access to the resources used by the app. It also lowers memory usage.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lostnfound53:
Hmm, I just found an interesting problem (not sure if it's just me). If you try to change the wallpaper from the Home screen using the menu button, and then select wallpaper "from wallpaper gallery," all the images are black. Someone else mentioned it in another thread, but it could be a side-effect of resizing the images to make them smaller.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tstack77:
That is on purpose to shrink the apk. That is how it's optimized. The pictures are not resized, they are now simply black.

CORRECTION: Erased, not blacked out.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lostnfound53:
I see, so those wallpapers in the rosie.apk were not meant to be used? I thought the purpose of resizing them was to, well, reduce the size of rosie.apk. Otherwise, those files could have been replaced with null files that contain no data, accomplishing the same task more efficiently.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
I believe he actually removed them from the APK so the do not show that way anymore.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lostnfound53:
Actually you are quite correct. I tried to look for them in the .apk file and they no longer exisit. Asked and answered, thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ruskiyab:
The wallpapers were eating up quiet a bit of space in rosie so they were removed. They are available on the web if someone needs them
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lostnfound53:
No it was just a misunderstanding on my part. I thought that the wallpapers were re-compressed to save space, when in fact they were removed.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gqukyo:
Just installed the zipaligned version and I still get the launcher force close whenever I try to change the wallpaper... is that how it's supposed to be?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Spunkzz:
can this be flashed over your previous version of the optimization?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lostnfound53:
Yes, that is exactly what I did.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Spunkzz:
thanks so much. does someone mind explaining what zipalign is?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ruskiyab:
If you're trying to use the wallpaper that comes with rosie, then yes, it has been removed.

Yes it can, it will just over write the previous files

Taken from Android Developers

I will be going through more applications this weekend so be on the lookout!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] liquidtheguy:
Anyway I can go back to the stock lockscreen and keep these optimizations flashed? For instance, editing a config file or something?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] swaze:
Can anyone confirm or deny that this works over a Gutted Rom install, or its just fresh and modoco ROMs????
[Hero CDMA Android Development] omeganot:
I believe I tried the non-zipaligned version on Gutted yesterday, but I can't remember for sure. I've since built my own Fresh/Gutted/Optimized Frankenstein ROM and I'm not having any issues. I took out a lot of things from Fresh I wasn't going to use, ported over a few things from Gutted, then all of the contents of the Optimized pack found here. Both Gutted 1.5 and Fresh 0.5/0.6 are based on the same 1.56 release, so you shouldn't have issues with either.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] swaze:
Thanks, thats what I was hoping, Ill give it a try but I do my nandroid but I just wanted to make sure before I even got it going. Good look.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tkhan02:
feedback: Just installed the zipaligned version and now the stock alarm clock sound doesn't work. reflash my back without Ziplaigned and stock alarm clock works like a charm again. I have MoDaCo 1.1 and Freeh .06 on my hero.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thecodemonk:
ZipAligned version works like a champ on Stock Sprint ROM (rooted). Alarm works and wallpaper changing works. ^_^
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Flomotion:
ran this guy on Fresh 0.6; works great and def sped up a lot of transitions.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] imb951:
Working great on so far on Fresh .6! Thank you!!!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] black7:
How does this compare with the Gutted Extras mod? That's what I'm currently running on top of Fresh Rom, works great so far, but am always looking to eak out any more performance that I can :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ruskiyab:
Gutter Extras includes a downsized rosie package, this one includes 11 png optimized and zipalignes apks. I don't know, is there a difference?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lloway21:
Can this be used on Non-Rooted Stock Sprint ROM ???
[Hero CDMA Android Development] N0J:
I'm sure being root is required, it is also a good idea to have the recovery tool loaded.

Matter of fact, the recovery tool provides the easiest and best way to install any of these roms/tweaks, plus you get to make a backup before installing.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] redram38:
Does this mean that the apps you optimized use zipalign or it is there for us to use. I am not sure how this works. How can I use this on the apps I install from the market or can I not do this and if I can the big million dollar question is how. I am going nuts trying to understand why this phone shows only 120 meg of space and I have only added 23 apps. My wifes Moment shows over 220 meg left and she has added about 12 apps with no Apps2sd being used. Is it the HTC sence that eats up the memory before we even get to start adding things over just plain Android like what is on the Moment. And why does the internal memory show more when I get rid of some of the stock apps?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] freebirds87:
Been a long time reader of XDA- had to register to say that this mod works great with the Fresh Rom .06... Thank you for your work!

Installation Aborted

Running Fresh 0.6.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dhinez:
Will this run on Fresh 0.6b? Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] beartrap:
Kudos, the new version takes about 25 seconds off the time to load the home screen. No change in the time to load the lock screen, but 25% reduction in time to load the home screen is good.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oxeneers:
Getting same error here, what gives?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alexthearmo:
hey...the (bad) installation aborted means that the file you downloaded is corrupt (ie: didn't download all the way). At least...that's what happened to me the first time I tried to flash the fresh rom. The file was like 90MB and my download (I didn't notice at the time) was only about 45MB, even though it said download complete.

All I delete the first zip file...redownload and it flashed perfectly. Not sure if that's what happened with yours, but it's worth a try. Try redownloading and flashing the new one...let me know what happens.

-alex
[Hero CDMA Android Development] irishman06:
So I just redownloaded, and it only got 17.5 MB...if the file is 90, i'm definitely not getting all of it! Tried downloading directly to the phone, and they both report the total file size as only 17.5...so what gives?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ruskiyab:
This file is only around that, I think the previous poster was referring to a differet file he downloaded
[Hero CDMA Android Development] atoy74:
So far I've used this for roughly 45mins and I'm in love. Let's see how it ages.

First impressions are very good and this really does smooth out and speed up the UI.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lilzone:
how are you getting 120 mb of space? I never can get above 75-80 or so and I only have 4 apps and one is a task killer. Thanks. One other question, do I need a overclock app still to make full use of processor or not? Thanks again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Semantics:
Just downloaded and installed, things seem nice and zippy. I have a question though, can I install the modaco ROM over this, or do I have to do a nandroid restore then flash the modaco, then get the optimizations again? I have also noticed one issue, and not sure if anyone else has this, or may know why. My browser works fine, well, everything but google.com. I get a blank white page. If I use a google search from the widget I get results, but I cannot load google.com. Everything else works. Any idea on what is preventing this, and only this site?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
Install this over top of MoDaCo
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Semantics:
Thanks Obelisk!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonnythan:
Maybe I missed it, but can you be specific about what exactly you did to each of these applications?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mkeyslehman:
Rusk took several applications (apk), opened them up and either removed or replaced pictures. In some cases, pictures were swapped out with slightly smaller ones size-wise, but are effectively the same graphic. Things like borders, backgrounds, shadows etc. In other cases (Rosie specifically) he removed the jpeg wallpaper photos.

Once the pics are removed, you use the ZipAlign tool included in the Android SDK to organize the applications so that they are loaded into RAM more efficiently.

The primary idea here is that the smaller the program, the quicker it is to process.

The only other thing he did (and the part I'm most curious about) is to swap out some of the XML files that control menu animation. But this is just for show and has no impact on performance. To the best of my knowledge, Android XML files can be "unpacked", but nobody has figured out how to put them back together again. I'm guessing they were copied from a known source. If anyone has any input about the XML files included here (or modifying them in general), I'd love to know. ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MotherMayI:
hey ever since i installed this rom i been having small issues with my messaging app, nothing like im not receiving messages but the timestamp is off by an hour sometimes so i have to search back in the convo an hour to see what the person texted me. does anyone know how to fix this, cuz its really annoying and inconvenient when im at work looking for a text thats off by an hour, when i should be working. please any info is appreciated :)

thanks for the rom again tho everything else is great, no issues besides this one <3

edit: sorry i posted this on th wrong thread but still any help is appreciated :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bcellis:
This is an issue a handful of people are experiencing (myself included) and it's not related to the optimized applications. It seems like on each of the various android/hero forums there's a post or two about it.

Apparently some people have contacted both Sprint and HTC about it and I guess both deny being responsible... makes me doubtful if it'll ever get resolved.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mkeyslehman:
Are you by chance in AZ? There's an issue with text timestamps due to daylight savings. There was a thread a while back that referenced this same problem, and just about everyone experiencing it was in Arizona.

None of these optimizations have changed the Sprint / HTC code or OS in any way. He simply removed or changed graphics to make several of the applications smaller.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MotherMayI:
i AM in AZ. sucks HTC and Sprint are denying that its their fault...who else could it be? google? lol...but yea thanks for your help (and bcellis too :) ) i guess all i can hope for is that it fixes itself by default when hero finally gets 2.1 : \. that would then to have been maybe proved that it was HTC seeing as they changed the code for it then it works properly all of a sudden? just a funny thought, hope thats the way it works out tho. thanks again! LOVE YOU XDA :D you've made my android obsession awesome! lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kcarpenter:
Can someone confirm that this does/doesn't work with MoDaCo 1.1? Will I have to move to 1.2c? I was running 1.2c yesterday and had issues so I rolled back.

I see a few of you with MoDaCo 1.1 in your sigs, but I am not sure if you are keeping those up to date with the mass amounts of things that are begining to circulate for our devices.
