[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdr:
Google says Earth need "ARMv7 instruction set". The Hero has only a ARMv6 as far as I know.

So, do you really think it is an OpenGL issue?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
No - I wasn't aware that Google Earth required ARM7
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdr:
Says on their help center page. So I think it is upto google to rebuild it for older android devices. :(

network operator

Hello,

First, sorry for my poor english.

Is it possible with the pre release ROM to choose manually the network operator ?

I'm still in roaming and it's a problem for me.

Thx.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Phanes:
@christrodr

sure you can, please specify your problems.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] christrodr:
network operator

In :

Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Mobile networs -> Network operators

it's impossible for me to choose the network I want
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Phanes:
In which country are you at? Are you near a country boarder?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
Okay, this is bad, but:

I have left work early (half day holiday).

Although Maxxo has beaten me to it, I have just successfully ported the Droid 2.1 dump & fixed drivers.

I will 'Villainise' it all afternoon and release it this evening. That's a promise :)

Wireless, 3G etc ALL WORKING! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] drygmasken:
Fantastic news, great work. Can't wait :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
You are a fool Nathan :D

We love you for it though.

Give me a reason to keep f5ing this thread again, luckily my work is a little slow this afternoon anyway :D

Nathan you are addicted ... :D

Latest 2.1 Leak Port update:

- Fixed Protected Apps not showing in market issue

Currently working on the Accelerometer.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thieum la fouine:
May the force be with you, Nathan !!! don't fall into the dark side of it, you will not be able to come back mouuuuhhhhahahahahahahaha!!

sorry it's just came out with non control :p

you're doing a fuc.. great job man, thank's for all :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] christrodr:
I'm in France, and I work in the Switzerland boarder
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Tibor Gáts:
Thanx man! Please don't forget to include Apps2SD!!! (with option to move dalvik-cache too, and EXT4 support) ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Phanes:
@christrodr

ok.... I just changed my SIM card and you are right it is not possible to change manually the network provider. It is just possible to use the automated option.

That means in the end that, when your are crossing the boarders the strongest signal will lock on your mobile and it looks like it is in your case the Swiss one.

Lets have a look if the 2.1 leak will fix that when Nathan releases the Villain update.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] akirainblack:
Dammit, I feel like a child in a candy store again....... Can't wait :D

BTW if you've fixed all the drivers then you've beaten him to a fully working port if that's any consolation.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] christrodr:
Thx,

I think you're right.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
Another update:

- Accelerometer now working

- No FC this time on boot

It's looking good people! :)

It looks like I've been beaten to it by two devs, but I'm going to take my time with it today and release it this evening.

Keep reading for updates!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Phanes:
@christrodr

... one last thought, try to reboot. Maybe it chooses your home network first (I know it is annoying but try too) when you´re in France.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MerXury13:
Just installed Google Earth on the other ROM (sorry Nathan:rolleyes:)

-> doesn't work!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] wizkid6000:
If this is a fully working 2.1 rom i will happily donate you some dosh! been following you since Villain 1.0 and have loved your work. How about live wallpapers? you reckon they will be working? cause ive notice none of the HTC Desire or Ledgend previews show them......
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rednose30:
:plooks awesome cant wait to flash just donated for your hard work

Confirmation number: 1J965851PJ024264M:p:p:p
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
It WILL be a fully working 2.1 rom. I'm almost certain of it.

Three of us have ported it now, and there are currently two versions out there.

I plan on spending the day/evening sorting/tweaking it and releasing my own version tonight :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mousse04:
Nathan,

do you think you will release quickly a vanillain ROM with the new 2.1 ROM leak?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] georgeskydiver:
Ｉcan't wait for the ROM

But I have another issue, I am having problem Rooting my hero

I flash he recovery 1.5.3.img

but I still can't get in the recovery page

the screen I try to boot is always show a triangle with a ! and phone icon...

any help??
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Nexus one is the only device which officially has live wallpapers that is including devices yet to be released. As a result we are not going to see them on this rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Gtot:
Hi Nathan.

Sounds fantastic.

There was one guy in the HeroDroid thread, writing that the jit thing was working there, it could bring you back on top, even though you did not make it as the first rom ;-)

I hope you will manage to put all the usual stuff in this release as well... you know i am a sucker for Email.apk etc.

Keep up your fantastic work

Gtot
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] wizkid6000:
Good to know, wouldn't use them anyways because of the battery drain......
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Gtot:
Just sent an extra donation your way :-) so you can buy a couple of beers...AFTER working on the new version..... LOL

Gtot
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
haha, thanks.

My plan is to implement Gallery 3D & the Nexus One email.apk, etc.

I have a few other surprises too.

You'll have to wait about 7-8 hours for the release though. As I say, I'm really taking my time with it.

I'm thinking of releasing a JIT & NON-JIT version.

Oh - and that bloody Verizon Wireless bootanim has GOT to go ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Aafjes:
I have one question for you, Nathan.

- Will it also include Google Nav (working outside US).

You will see a donation coming after your upcoming release for all the hard work you've done for us! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Gtot:
Yeeeeehaaaaa

You are the best
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Gtot:
ohhh, forgot before.... remember the different T9 languages...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
I feel like an excited little boy. Honestly.

Forget the 7-8 hours btw, make it 4 hours, TOPS. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
It's nice to see Gmail push working. mmmmmm :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mauro269:
Wooooow...fantastic Nathan!Waiting your release :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vvaleta28:
You are a past nprusell, I wait anxious for your rom that sure that you improve her, you are very good.

Please, when the cuelges, do it in several servants because estaran collapsed
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fabsn182:
Is there a chance to get 2.1 without wiping? Also I really need the german language for menus and the keyboard-thingy because I'm writing a lot messages (sms) every day.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Birba:
Nathan, could you install Titanium Backup by default. On Maxo64's rom its not working
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vido.ardes:
I am using the freshly ported release, and it is amazingly fast! I can't wait to see what it is like once you have tweaked it!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] igniztion:
Titanium Backup requires busybox which still isn't in any of these ROMs. I'm sure it will be added soon enough.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ermacwins:
woot i finish work at 8 :)

can u leave all the bloatware out please? i.e. stocks, amazon mp3

maybe you can do a seperate zipp for those apps?

also what about live wallpapers? is it possible?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Tibor Gáts:
:eek: But busybox and Apps2SD are must have! :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
Busybox won't be in the initial release, but that's my mission tomorrow... so don't worry, you'll get it soon enough.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ermacwins:
posted this on maxos thread

i notice some lags i.e when adding widget

when i press the screen on the snes emu it totally slows down (this was the case with other 2.1 roms)

i cant uncheck sim contacts, so it shows sim contacts and google contacts :(

requests if possible

please add the new gallery from nexus and live wallaper

can you add apps2sd concept where it gives you option where to install app? http://htcpedia.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=1767&d=1267138422

oh and is it possible to have those superfast kernels? teknologist?

edit: Also i dont like the fact that htc put call history, phone and people in the app drawer. These can be accessed by pressing the dial button on the phone. Can I delete them?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rednose30:
cant find the link for the rom any ideas cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Come on people can we please stop asking about live wallpapers it has been talked about so much now.

This rom will not have Live Wallpaper, no device other than the Google Nexus One has live wallpapers fully working and as a result Nathan and a lot of other Dev's choose not to put it in their roms.

not to mention it has never worked with a sense rom anyway.

I REPEAT LIVE WALLPAPERS WILL NOT BE IN THIS ROM!!!!

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] opusheks:
Superb work, nprussell! Will def donate if the release holds up! ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
it is not out yet, check back in a few hours.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ermacwins:
hold on sir http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=De9nRePAa8o

htc desire, sense rom with live wallpaper
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
Oh, it'll hold up.

I have just fixed all sensors.

It looks like EVERYTHING is working right now.

The only issue I'm having (same in the other two as well) is that there's no option to remove/hide SIM contacts.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Ok then got that bit wrong, but the desire is not released yet.

My point still stands and I am sure Nathan would confirm only he has already said it a million times.

Live wallpapers will not be in this rom at least not until way into the future.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kayceejayh:
Worth mentioning that the Desire does have Live Wallpapers - BUT - the Desire also has a more powerful processor than the Hero. So they will slow it down and kill the battery.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ermacwins:
could this be related that the leak is from a cdma rom? (read something like those phones dont use sim?)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MacCarron:
This is GREAT NEWS indeed :D:D. nprussel, if you have time could you look into the wifi settings? To be more precise, i noticed that only 11 channels are available for scanning instead of the usual 13...this basically means i had to remap a lot of stuff :P. If it's no big deal i think having all channels could be useful to many people ;).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kroosh:
is there a link to download this rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Piercy0812:
Can you remember to include htc people app as well as the android contacts app, i prefer using people however, i need to turn of facebook sync in contacts so that it only syncs pictures.

cant wait for this release, very excited. Good work!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
I think I will miss the skin you used for the pre-release :(

But a fully working 2.1 rom, can't really argue with that.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] irispen:
Please make it a stock HTC SENSE ROM..

finally, my wait is almost over.

thanks.. cant wait.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
Not for long mate.

The skin will be released as an optional update by the weekend.

Don't worry, I'm going to work my proverbial arse off this weekend.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
I don't think we have a .apk for that yet.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] igniztion:
Issues with 11 WiFi channels and sim contacts missing, seem to be related to the leaked ROM being a US (CDMA) ROM.

FDA only allow 11 channels to be used for IEE 802.11b/g in the US, and CDMA phones have no simcard.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ermacwins:
launcer 2 installed but it force closes, can u fix this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
awesome :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] liorry:
Wonder if this ROM has the OpenGL which was missing until now to run the Launcher2 with 3D effect.

Also, does it include Flash?

I saw Live wallpapers are not included.. that's not too bad... it's nice at start but it just drain the battery faster...

Is is the new Sense UI version? with the colored tabs?

Thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] spacecat:
FFS Nathan put some effort in mate 4 hours to produce a

Working 2.1 ROM for free.

What's the world coming to

Not sure how true this is but @NAMETOBEINSERTEDHERE just said this in the other thread

"For anyone that wants busybox, just open Titanium Backup, hit the "problems?" button and it will download it automagically. Awesome!!"

If that's the case people won't need to wait for you to add it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ermacwins:
nathan, do emus lag when you touch the screen?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Phanes:

i have on the maxo's port and it does which was the case the the other 2.1, just wondering if you fixed any drivers to solve this
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] folgui:
What a nice day in our lifes :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
maybe its not a driver issue and is a processor issue with 2.1 roms on the hero? If that is the case it will never be fixed.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Puky70:
@ nprussell,

what about locale? Will this ROM have german language in it? I don't think so.

Kindly Regards

Puky70
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kayceejayh:
Gallery 3D still corrupting when you alter the orientation?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ermacwins:
until official hero rom?

hows the sim problem going? is this coz its from a cdma rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Well if the emulator is lagging because a hero running 2.1 can't handle it then I doubt even an official HTC Hero rom will fix it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ermacwins:
no no, it works fine but when u press the screen its lags, works fine on 1.5
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
yeah that might be because 2.1 takes more resources than 1.5

I am only guessing so could be completely wrong.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
Apps2SD & Busybox added.

btw do i have to do anthing to enable apps2sd?

never used it in any rom......
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kayceejayh:
Can you have Apps2SD *disabled* by default please?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
In most roms it auto enables when you have an ext partition on your sd card, if not you don't have to worry.

Not sure how Nathan has done it though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kevinlow:
i second this . . . thanks for the great job
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Bad4ss:
I want it on by default, because if you don't have your sd card partitioned anyway it wont make a difference to you, but it will for those that do have it partitioned, see the post above you.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kd0t:
@nprussell: can you confirm if data works on this? I am using another 2.1 ROM and only 3g works, and more recently it is stuck on GPRS regardless of reflashing the ROM or radio image, ideally want HSDPA working before I flash another rom.

I am in the UK btw.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] abu_121:
Cant wait for the final rom.. Your one amazing Chef!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Most likely HSDPA has still been working it just has not been showing the "H" sign. In most of the 2.1 custom roms it seems to stay on 3G but is actually giving out a HSDPA signal.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kd0t:
Yea i thought that might be the case because it said HSDPA in the settings menu and not UTMC (cant remember if thats the right abbreviation). Only thing is the one im using has stopped giving me 3g either which is a bit of a pain when I want to do anything on the phone besides sync emails, on the plus side it is fast for GPRS for some reason (double checked the Status and its showing GPRS still)

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] abu_121:
Have you tried flashing the latest radio?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] del_toro:
ooh... I actually didn't like that one. the idea's great but it messes some stuff up. you can't batch install with android commander (which is the absolutely fastest way of installing apps and retaining all market connections). also i couldn't update som apps. i think it concerned the apps that followed with kagudroid (prox sensor, nav launcher, etc). as I said I like the idea but you should be able to set a preference like in an app or something... check one of the following: always install to sd/always install to internal/ask every time :)

btw are you supposed to post confirmation on donations here? anyways, here's mine :)

You're commitment is exemplary. If it weren't for my need of Microsoft Exchange I would probably use your ROM more regularly!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] steveoy:
After a few minutes of playing with 1.1, I feel it is stable enough for daily use, but one big problem, it is missing the Calendar widget and the HTC Peep Twitter widget! Hopefully you will include it in the 1.2 version of your ROM.

But I must say, keep up the great work you've done so far.
