Good morning!

OK had some time to let this Rom cool on my G1... first, the kudos:

- AMAZINGLY FAST! Quite possibly the fastest Sense rom I have ever encountered. (Yes even faster than MghtyMax, and that is an achievement.)

- Snappy! Transitions are smooth, no lag on app tray or other loads.

- Multitouch in browser and maps works like a charm. Flash in browser is also functioning perfectly.

- While the weather/clock widget can not display live locations, setting your home city in the app seems to work just fine.

- While the HTC alarm does appear to be bugged out, the old Android alarm works just fine.

- Camera seems to work just fine, as long as you don't try to use Camcorder.

- GPS works flawlessly. Step out to my balcony, and Maps shows me standing on my balcony. Perfect!

- 0 Lag on incoming/outgoing calls. No ring delay at all!

Things that may need work -

- LED notifications still a bit wonky. Maybe talk to Maxisma and see what he did to get LED's to work on G1?

- No button/keyboard lights (this has been a known issue for some time on these builds)

- Apps like the HTC clock still don't recognize location (Again known issue)

- Missing Voice Search

- Missing HTC Facebook which allows for photo sync of contacts.

- HTC Alarm does not work. (again known issue.)

- Camcorder not working (again known issue)

That is a pretty short list of issues.

Klick has done an amazing job on this ROM. It is a huge leap from the previous builds in functionality and speed. Despite the minor issues, I would recommend this build for daily use.

In fact I'm recommending that anyone still running MghtyMax and doesn't mind the above issues to go ahead and switch over to this rom.

Congratulations Klick on an amazing job!

Gonna test drive this baby out right now.
[G1 Android Development] AsaSpades:
Im enjoying this Rom, its fast and stable, any idea on an MMS fix tho? Besides th@ I really like it, keep up the good work King, im gonna leave this rom installed
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
How does this compare to Super D in terms of battery life and speed?
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
.If you really want to know how fast it is read the comments or just make a BART and flash it for yourself.
[G1 Android Development] G1ForFun:
Fair enough....switchrom it is.
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
Hey Klick?

Was there a reason why you removed HTC Facebook and voice search from this build?
[G1 Android Development] ScottR27:
Exchange is broken in this ROM. I retrieved the following log file via adb logcat. Notice the space in the URI between HTC and Hero.

W/System.err( 4386): java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal character in qu

ery at index 112: YOUR EXCHANGE SERVER/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync?User=YOUR_USER_NAME&DeviceId=HTCAnd2e2905b&DeviceType=HTC Hero

To fix it, i modified the /system/build.prop file and replace the following two lines

ro.product.model=HTC Hero

ro.product.name=HTC Hero

with

ro.product.model=HTCHero

ro.product.name=HTCHero

and pushed it to /system/build.prop after making a backup. Exchange now works, but i was wondering could this change impact anything else?

Thoughts?

[G1 Android Development] kitu-miyashi:
I have also problems with the unlock pattern. Is it possible to push the old lock screen over? Maybe you can tell me which .apk I need to push.

Yea this ROM rocks! Thanks King
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Wrong thread.
[G1 Android Development] shebaz:
Sometimes the buttons work for me meaning the lights come on. Also idk why but when i had cyanogen i downloaded an app call backlight. Which turned on and off the keyboard light. NOw on this rom whenever i click on the app, my keyboard black lights come on! But they stay on no matter what untill after a short while then they turn back off. So if your texting at night like me I suggest downloading that app and giving it a try!
[G1 Android Development] ultra spikey:
Does anyone else have a transparent lockscreen???

(I asked earlier and only 1 person responded. I wiped and reflashed but its still the same. This is the only thing that's buggin me)
[G1 Android Development] lightninbug:
can someone plz tell me step by step how to get the facebook sync working? If i get it to work this has got to be the best/fastest/reliable HERO Rom evvvvver!
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
Lightningbug, HTC Facebook was not included in this build, so no contact sync. I'm waiting to hear back from Klick about why it wasn't included... I may try adding it myself, and see if it works. Same for voice search.
[G1 Android Development] lightninbug:
i pushed htcfacebook.apk and socialnetworkprovider.pk to app_s....and now when i try to sync htc facebook it says FC t" The process com.htc.bg has stopped..." the files were from kings espresso 1.3

any help would be appreciated
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
shouldnt... thats wierd/kool it fixed that, thanks!
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
I talked to Klick. Do NOT try to install HTC Facebook or Voice Search. They were intentionally removed due to bugs... he is working on getting HTC Facebook working now. No word on Voice Search yet.

Oh, and anyone remember where that setting is to turn off the "turn off ring when phone is picked up" thing? I really want my phone to just ring.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
We need the @550MHz for this rom...
[G1 Android Development] lightninbug:
nevermind....rebooted my phone..and htc facebook works...no FCs contacts along with facebook albums were syned...all is well on my end.....great ROM even tho I had to do some modding! Keep up the good work Klick
[G1 Android Development] kingdkknox:
Well the only problem I'm having is setting my wall paper and using the photo album widget. It all force closes. ANy help? ANd by the way thanks for the fastest hero rom yet.
[G1 Android Development] sanstrom:
Battery life?

Using this on a mytouch 3g. First of all this thing is awesome for speed. Couple little snags here and there but nothing too big...except one thing I found overnight. My battery was full got up it was almost dead. Seems like something is draining the battery in standby mode. I didnt' have the flipclock widget or any of the htc widgets running. Odd but understandable since it's really a beta. Still if that could be fixed and we finally get a damn hardware accelerated video driver.... this thing would be PERFECT. Still great work. faster than cyanogen and that's pretty damn fast.
[G1 Android Development] lt1pnyklr:
Anyone know why i cant access the phone dialer?
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
Talked to klick again, and going to give this a try...

"try different htc fb's dont forgot to push the included socialnetworkprovider either"
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
Seriously though... anyone know where the setting is to get rid of this ring mute when the phone is moved?
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Dude i know right? i really cant get enough of this lockscreen. i really like that its transparent like this and its really quick.. this rom is so damn fast lol.. anyone noticed that the password screen the dots are bunched together now? and yeah i was about to say the regular G1 doesent bro lol. and OH the priceless one was when i played the droid commercial to my friend who has the iphone. everytime he says something about android i go to youtube and play the video for him lol.
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
I like the transparency and bunched up unlock dots, they seem classier for some reason. My friend with the iPhone likes to say Android is evil, but then I remind him of who made his phone and who made mine. Google's motto is literally Don't be Evil. He shuts up then
[G1 Android Development] prince.siraj:
hahahahhahha DEFINITELY the Droid is the iPhone killer no doubt about it :D and if you don't think so you're either a douche Apple fanboy or way behind the technology curve or just trolling or otherwise attempting to piss me off lol
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
:eek::mad::(
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
haha i always count off how many things it can do that iphone cant. i even paused it when it said open developement and when it said widgets lmao and prince since we have to wait another half hour you should flash 0.2 just to get a rundown of the newness :D and yes bro of course everyone is a apple fanboy. MAC's suck lol
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
It's kind of sad that I came to a smartphone from a razr last year and no more about smartphones than my friend who's had one for 2 yrs., and if I had Verizon Droid would be where it's at, but fortunately I have T-Mobile, with a G1, running a hero rom
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
yeah it does look classier. and its alot more responsive and you can do the pattern alot better than when they were spaced. another little something i just found was that when the keyboard is slid and you lock it you still have to unlock it vertically and stuff lol
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
i think my first smartphone i got was like a dash when i was like 13 and thats when i got hooked to smartphones.. i had so many emulators on it.. i just had to lose it lol
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
My first touch screen device was a instinct on sprint, actually i got it earlier this year:p Before that had something.
[G1 Android Development] TFJ4:
I'm 13, 14 next month and the G1 was my first phone and obviously first smart phone =).
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
i was thinking the EXACT same thing because this almost seems like this rom is starting to be made for the g1 now with the landscape rosie and the speed this rom has.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Look here-Links were removed...Maybe G1 getting upgrade?

http://developer.htc.com/adp.html
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
im sorry but that phone sucks so hard what was you thinking? :p ;)
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
but the commercials just pulled me in and i thought it had that touch wiz. i am disappointed at sprint and samsung,*shaking my head*.

But i still use it as a alarm.
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
your on the right track my young man :D:cool:
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
its probably for android 2.0. Back when JAC was developing t-mobile had said we weren't ever going to get the update to hero since the device was coming out here or whatever. stupid tmobile europe or wherever hero came from lol
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
i almost started when crying when my cousin came to me with that telling me it was better than my phone lmao i showed him hero on my phone now hes supposidly getting hero christmas.. that douche.. :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Well they shouldnt make such decisions considering they have tragic data speeds and 3G coverage that you have a 25/100 chance of getting.Well atleast for me...

This is pretty fast should htc should just give us the update as well, it seems stable so far.
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
They're swayed so easily, like I know hardcore Apple Fanboys that are drooling over the Droid
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
True statement but i think most of it was because htc and google though. i mean think about it if hero was coming to our phone who the hell would want to get the hero from sprint when they can get a g1 and flash a better than stock rom with a added bonus.. physical keyboard? i know i wouldnt. A phone like you said must be coming out with a keyboard with hero because ive also seen other htc phones running sense.. i thought sense was hero only?
[G1 Android Development] lightninbug:
Like I said i pushed both files from kings espresso 1.3...and its working fine on my G1....Shocked i got it to work with as little experiance i have..... Dunno why it wasnt included..
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
seriously folks, where is the setting to remove the ringer mute on phone movement?!?!?! It's driving me batty!
[G1 Android Development] kingdkknox:
can anyone tell me why i cant set my wallpaper and use the photo album widget without it force closing
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
I would try the settings in the people app, or call settings in settings. Possibly even sound & display in settings
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
tried all that.... and may have spoke too soon on the HTC FB working.... two lockups in a row now on boot. :(
[G1 Android Development] lightninbug:
Me 2....Facebook sync was working...can not view albums in contacts without it FC.. O well.. Rom is fast but to many things missing that i like...switching to a diff Rom till King updates
[G1 Android Development] ultra spikey:
Here's a tip...don't switch to Folder View in the Media Gallery. It will Force Close and will never open again.

Now, does anyone here have a properly looking lockscreen? (I can see right through mine)
[G1 Android Development] ohspaceman:
SMS?

Anyone else find themselves unable to receive SMS messages with this app?

Briefly flashed back to King Eclair AOSP 1.3 because I needed to send a few SMSes. If that wasn't so much of an issue I would have done some debugging, seen if Handcent worked, etc etc.

But the point being - I receive no SMSes in the stock app.

Aside from that no major issues. Not all cities are listed for Weather widget. No popups when you try to type a name in the 'to' field for SMS, you have to enter the number manually or go from contacts.

I also had an issue where certain core apps - Browser, Messaging, and People (in order of frequency) would like to FQ quite a bit, if not always.

Also, occasionally the home screen / Rosie would like to go out of memory, so you'd press home from another app and it would give you the 'loading' screen. Problem is, for me, that screen lasted indefinitely and I'd generally have to reboot.

So, to recap:

- Can not receive SMSes via stock app (untested with other apps)

- Not all cities listed for weather widget (probably due to HTC Beta?)

- Core apps (Browser, Messaging, People/Contacts) like to FQ

- Home screen/Rosie often bumped out of memory, will not reload ('loading' screen just sits there, have to reboot)

These are mostly things I can work around. I'm curious as to if there's a fix to the SMS problem, or if anyone else has experienced it. I'll reflash back later today and mess around for awhile. In my experience, SMS and minor issues aside, this thing is easily slick and stable enough to be a daily user. I'd say it's even faster than King's Eclair AOSP 1.3, somehow.

(Oh, and for reference, I did enable backing-swap. I don't know if that'd have an effect on any of these things)
[G1 Android Development] NICEGYPT:
plz any fix for the ringer , it's driving me crazy .. i hear the first scound from the ringer and go very fast to mute
[G1 Android Development] Baba1472:
Location/GPS in maps

My GPS is not working even in Maps....is any1 else having this issue?...it worked in expresso but not here but it says in the OP that it works...any fix mayb? thanks

-Baba
[G1 Android Development] garrette:
sms should work fine it the mms that doesnt work
[G1 Android Development] NICEGYPT:
GPS work very fine with me .. try to restart and if it does not work do a full wipe and reflash . what about your ringer ?
[G1 Android Development] ohspaceman:
I understand that. But for me, obviously not ;).

Sometimes should and do don't line up, inexplicably.

I'm probably gonna try a wipe and reflash once I have more patience, I'm thinking something went wrong somewhere in there, perhaps in setup. Or maybe B4R messed something up (restoring SMSes), I'm not sure.

Didn't mess around with GPS or Maps - what's the verdict on that?
[G1 Android Development] kingklick:
GPS works just fine :)
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
GPS should be working for everyone... Make sure you are OUTSIDE. GPS works on line of sight, and the signal can't make it through most man made structures.

As far as the FB thing, Been chatting with Klick and hope to have a solution very soon.
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
As far as the ringer mute, I have no clue. Neither does Klick... A missing setting in this build perhaps. In the last build there was a way to turn that off.... if someone can find it, awesome, but if not, we may be SOL.
[G1 Android Development] mccurt29:
Does mms work
[G1 Android Development] ScottR27:
Not trying to start anything, just wondering why this is the wrong place to post something relevant to this ROM. Isn't this the Development forum? Where should i have posted it?

Thanks
[G1 Android Development] garrette:
no mms dont work,...but i was messing with phone and came across the "edit access point" options...is there anything in there i could try to change, it has options for mms settings
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
You are not starting anything, your post was perfectly relevant to this rom.
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
Can you post detailed instructions on what EXACTLY you did to get this to work? Nobody else has been successful, and I've been in direct contact with Klick while we've experimented on this.
[G1 Android Development] lightninbug:
i said i thought i got it to work....albums do not load in the people app...gets FC..so in other words i spoke too soon...just pushed both files to app_s...like King told me to...used the files from espresso 1.3
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
OK, so you're not getting the FB photos in your contacts either... At leas that means we weren't doing something wrong. Hopefully this will be corrected in the next build.
[G1 Android Development] adelco93:
ummm. data suddenly stopped working?

edit: ok its back up, but it was out for a good 5 min, not cool man
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
Could simply be network related. Try shutting down, pulling the battery and rebooting. I had some network issues today as well. I am in southern California where there were some pretty serious storms.
[G1 Android Development] janux13:
Did you trying pushing the ContactsProver.apk from openeclair rom? That worked for kings Eclair rom

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5535342&postcount=1392

Might work

im in norcal, so maybe that was it

Security pattern not working

Is anyone else having problems with the security pattern? I was able to set a security pattern but it looks like I'm not able to actually draw the security pattern to unlock the phone. The phone keeps thinking that I lifted my finger when I try to do the pattern. I have the haptic feedback turned on for the security pattern. Anyone see this problem before?
[G1 Android Development] jeanundead:
help!!!!

Can someone fix the transparent look screen, the Rom would feel more complete and it gives no privacy

Someone respond please!!
[G1 Android Development] Macrophage001:
Suck up.....lmao :D Jk
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
Worth a shot...
[G1 Android Development] janux13:
I just tried it and am getting all sorts of FC's
[G1 Android Development] AsaSpades:
Its not that important is it? C'mon ppl b patienttttt ahaha :p, let King work his magic
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
copied it to my SD card, and pushed it via Terminal on the android using the following command: cp /sdcard/contactsprovider.apk /system/sd/app

Rebooted.

Signed into HTC FB.

Let it sync.

Sure is doing a lot of syncing... good sign.

This works! Takes at least 24 hours for FB contacts to sync, but it works!
[G1 Android Development] mghtyred:
First off, Important is a relative term. While it is not vital to daily functionality of the rom, it is a feature that many have grown accustomed to, and enjoy.

If it were vital to daily functionality, I wouldn't have advised the thousands of MghtyMax users to switch to this ROM.

With that said, if there is a solution that can be devised by this community, why not work towards that. Heck, I was chatting with Klick today about this very subject, and experimenting on different things that might make it work.

Instead of telling people to "be paitenttttt" why not contribute to the community and start using your brain instead of your ass to think.
[G1 Android Development] ElahC:
I agree with this
[G1 Android Development] AsaSpades:
Hmmm I agree with u on the first part, but goodness, speaking of ass, whats up urs? I was making a joke, notice the smiley and the "ahaha" do u honestly think im trying to prevent u from finding a solution to the problem? or any1 else for that matter? I try the same thing, and if I could contribute I would have. I hope u enjoyed trying to tell me off.
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
Smilies don't portray anything over the internet, that's why I must have a disclaimer in my sig.

Ahhh ic, I mustve 4got the rules of the internet back when I first got my internet connection, I apologize for my 2 previous posts if they offended anyone.

Contacts

I know this has been brought up and I did search and found 2 alternatives to fixing the contact sync however neither have worked for me. I have tried skipping the first Google sign in and trying after opening the market, no dice there. wiped and flashed again trying the exchange method, I was unsuccessful here as well. I also saw that you could import them through the people app on the phone but will this fix the sync issues? Ex. like if i add a contact through my pc will it be added on my phone like normal or will i have to export my contacts and import them to the phone again?
[G1 Android Development] AsaSpades:
What account are u trying to sync ur contacts from? U talked about going to the market to sign in, if ur referring to ur google account contacts that should work, give it sometime, and mayb a reset and try again, or go to the system settings and enable it in there, I had a similar issue.

class 6

hi sorry about this question, but do you absolutely have to have a class 6 sdcard for this rom to work? I have a class 4.......

I've never used a Hero rom before, so just checking, I keep getting stuck on the HTC boot screen. did full wipe including dalv.

thanks
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
I would say Class 6 is certainly preferred, but a class 4 isn't a show stopper, it just going to be slow

how long are you leaving the HTC screen?

first boots can take quite a bit of time, and its going to take even longer with a class 4
[G1 Android Development] thierrz:
Thanks for this ROM!

Hey,

Can someone explain me how to enable swap, and what to do with userinit.sh?

Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] janux13:
I do believe swap is already enabled as long as you have a swap partition
[G1 Android Development] thierrz:
Great, thanks. And do you know where userinit.sh is exactly for?
[G1 Android Development] smalld810:
fast!!

But keyboard light not work..... both qwerty and navi botton

why ? how about yours?
[G1 Android Development] XZ32:
class 4 will do just fine.

Been using it since the beginning and i cant really say this rom, or any hero rom, is slow.
[G1 Android Development] jeanundead:
:confused:Seriously,does no one want to help fix the transparent lock screen?
[G1 Android Development] Firerat:
sure, I'll help if I can

how far have you got so far?
[G1 Android Development] cheil:
Why not lock screen Rainbow Bridge:confused:
[G1 Android Development] jeanundead:
Okay the rom comes stock with a transparent lock screen and when you try to set one from the albums it force closes everytime and when you try to use the roms wallpapers after you press set, still the lock screen remains transparent.
[G1 Android Development] jeanundead:
What is lock screen rainbow bridge?
[G1 Android Development] cheil:
Hero is the kind of lock screen

To the drop-down kind of
