Sorry late reply, I formatted SD without copying to PC by accident.

What i meant by Transparent lockscreen, is the image has a tranparency of say 30 - 40%. I've attached some screenshots from my old modaco backup i have.

Im trying to achieve the same with current 3.4 but the files are different :(.

Image1: Current Lock screen

Image2: Custom tranparent lockscreen from a 1.5 rom

Image3: Half unlocked lockscreen.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DMzda:
A small bug, the music control icons on the lockscreen aren't alligned properly
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] akirainblack:
Thank you, this worked for me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xTuX:
are you sure its a bug, its probably a feature :D

.. no, seriously, I think its fine :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Fraqq:
ok that i dont know..i have tried to figured out, but i cant find a way
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Nabukodonosor:
I've just installed this rom and some things i've notised:

1. Camera does not work. Not properly at least.

2. Bluetooth can't recieve files.

3. Cannot disable SIM contacts

4. In Contact Sidebar application i can't see any contact, just some numbers instead, like 233, 246, 345, 333...etc.

This is just after 15 minutes of use.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] peterpanuk2000:
Do you know how to make the lock screen a solid colour or to add a pic to the lock screen.

I have tried the adding to the lock screen but nothing happens I take this as becouse I removed the HTC Lock screen that is what that setting is for.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RichardFHTC:
I have got this working on exchange email, all be it I am doing it this way to avoid password policies.

See post #5458
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Yeah, that makes sense. What you're doing is replacing mail.apk and corgal.apk with other ones that work. I think there's something wrong with mail in 3.4 which causes this. I'm sure it will be fixed at some point. Either way, problem no longer exists in Legend dump that I'm working on right now :) So this should be a short-term issue.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Bad4ss:
Thanks!

Oops just tried - it says

Contacts database structure not recognised.
This application can do nothing on this device !

Saaayy Whhhhaaaaaat??????!!!!!!!! :(:(:(:(:(:(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] claudefrog:
Have been using this ROM for the last 24 hours and the only real issue I have come across is the Camera isn't 100%

Apart from that I would love to see the friend stream widget added in a future release please.

Keep the good work going
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Phanes:
@claudefrog

... the mentioned "FriendStream" widget is already implemented. I deleted yesterday a bunch stuff from the ROM and I remember I have deleted a FriendStreamwidget.apk
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lwk123:
how can i set the font size big more...?;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] claudefrog:
@Phanes

Can you remember if it was under HTC or Android Widgets.

Is it actually named friend stream?

cheers

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] btdag:
I'm unable to find it on mine.

Both the application and the widget is installed under /system/app, but they don't appear either place.

Your not wrong there, i am down the road in Scunthorpe.

:D:D

But i'm a Member of a little German Android Board and i'm promoting for your ROM because in my oppinion its very good and becomes still better and you are a developer you can talk with and tell your wishes and mostly all of them are	enthusiastic about how good it is!:)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] claudefrog:
One Addition Please

Hey,

been using this ROM and really liking it, CKDroid ROM has a voice to text keyboard feature and I really like it, any chance in getting into your ROM?

Cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
I'm not sure I understand what you want help with...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
Yes - I know the one. I'll test it :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] claudefrog:
Excellent, thanks so much.

Great ROM, I have tried bucketloads of ROMS and this is easily the best, very stable and all my stuff works, contact sync, Wavesecure back up and restores work, going to give it a damn good test tonight.

Cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MerXury13:
Hey in CKDroid 1.5.2 is OpenGL included! perhaps you can use this...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] devil666lee:
cannot see Chinese word

i cannot find it in my fone.

how to get there and copy ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
Already on it mate :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Sporkman:
flashing as i type this ! i have to ask is there any themes that will run on this rom ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] GertuZz:
Hi Nathan,

Is it possible to add the live wallpapers? I understand if it doesn't have any priority. The best thing is to get the rom stable (and fast). :-)

One thing: As I was testing the rom I noticed using Taskiller that I only had 30 mb ram left after the first boot. Once I closed most apps I only had 70+ mb left. The original 1.5 + sense rom had me about 100+ mb left after a reboot and after killing apps with Taskiller. Thought I'd let you know... ;-)

Anyway, keep up the great work!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Tutungzone:
Does the network matter?

NPrussell,

Is this specific for GSM, or will it work for other networks (I am with Sprint). I just got this phone after having to switch carriers due to location and service... and like the phone, just looking to see what I can do with it. I am a long time Modder, and enjoy these forums... that said, I am new to the full android forums, but not new to Android... been running it on my ATT Tilt forever.

Let me know...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shark0807:
You can safely assume that everything on this board is for the GSM Hero, there is actually a separate board for CDMA Hero: http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=519

As far as the ROM, I was going to post my experiences with 1.2 after a full day of work, but it seems I'll need to wait and report my experiences with 1.2.1 :b
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MerXury13:
How about the 3g Problem? can you fix it so that "H" is shown in the notification bar above?

or is it not possible to have HSDPA with your ROM?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
If I'm not mistaken, that friendstream app and widget is only for the legend. Not sure how it would cope outwith the legend rom, but I've not heard of anyone having it working on a hero rom yet (tbh I've not gone looking though).

Nathan is going to be moving to a legend leak for the next VillainROM, that's what we're working on just now...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] btdag:
When I try to install it from there I just says "Application not installed"
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] buck32:
Apps2sd not working on 3.4 all i get when switching it on is "apps2sd not found" any help solving it would be appreciated. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] k2thejx5:
Awesome

So far after using the rom for a day is great just i wish someone knew how to edit the my contact card anyone?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] claudefrog:
Ok, after a bit of searching I found that behnaam claims to have the friend stream working.

BeHero v1.3.2 Legendary edition

Fixes and FAQ can be found in the post below this one.

Including:

All goodies from 2.1

Fast

App2SD

Busybox

FriendStream

Think I will stick with Villain ROM as I can't be arsed flashing a ROM that might not have all the features I like in Villain.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dabrown:
You guys in this thread rock !! Glad I read through everything. I love this ROM and Exchange was my biggest issue, but this work around solved it. I am happy to see that it works on 3.4
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] folgui:
That's because BeHero 1.3.2 is a rom based on Legend Leak.

ATM, no Eris Port rom (like Villain 3.4) with FriendStream working.

Regards, folgui.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shelnes:
Should work automatic as long as you got an ext2 partition on your sd card. I didn't have any problem with it. Maybe you should re-partition your sd-card

Bluetooth & Wifi issue

First: Thanks for your great work! I think it is the best 2.1 CR at the moment.

But two issues i have found:

Bluetooth is not working with my car. With 3.2 and all other Roms i used, there was no problem.

When i activate wifi with the widget does it not connecting. Ever i must manually scan, then its connecting.

Sorry for my bad english.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
Bluetooth, Exchange & Java fix coming tomorrow.

Sorry!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Phanes:

... Java fix coming tomorrow.

Thanx a lot!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Nabukodonosor:
Can you fix also ringtones? After aprox 1 second, the ringtones becomes really quiet.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] akirainblack:
That's OK.. I forgive you for fixing issues in your own ROM. But best make sure you don't make a habbit of it or else... NO NATHAN IS A BAD NATHAN!! :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MrPadie:
Are you sure its not just when you pick up your phone? This ROM has the built in feature that when you pick up the phone while it is ringing, the ring tone becomes softer. Sort of a more 'polite' ring tone as HTC put it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] J-Zeus:

With regards to the battery life, how long roughly do you expect it to last?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
After a day of quite a but of use today I am at 55%

I have been playing games, watching videos, browsing internet, calls and texts, downloading apps and probably more.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Wiley87:
Doesn't sound that bad, my battery life has been pretty bad as of late, probably due to my lack of turning off wifi.

I've only just installed the BeHero ROM, and am very impressed with it, but I'll give Villain a go as well. Looks like a great project. I can just put the ROM onto my SD Card, rename it to update.zip and be on my way right, following:

Wipe Data/Factory Reset

Wipe Dalvik cache

Wipe SD

Press back button

Select Flash Zip from SD Card

Click Confirm
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
I have had wifi on all day today as well.

And re flashed my radio file so rebooted twice.

Ok Guys! I think I'm out..

Battery drain in this ROM is RIDICULOUS!

I plugged the phone from the battery charger today at 10am and on 9pm my phone switched off! I can accept charging the phone every night but this is just too much :(

I've tried Villain since first Eris dump but I think I will revert to modaco for now :(

I'm really sorry to come to this conclusion. Because I really like this ROM (especially now, with a new theme).

Exchange Sync not working in 3.4 [was working in 3.3]

Hi nprussell,

The exchange active sync is broken in 3.4

After entering the user name, password, server and email address - it just pops up a message saying cannot connect to the server. I tried even the gmail server settings in active sync but still the same. It was working perfectly in 3.3

Below is the message from logcat when registering Exchange Account in HTC Mail:

Hi All,

Anyone else facing this issue?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arshad14:
Problems when waking from sleep...

So I have re-wiped ALL and re-flashed 3.4 and all is good now. But the problem I see now is that when I wake the phone up from sleep, it always gives me a popup of an app not responding asking me to either FC or 'Wait.' If I choose wait it goes away, but it's just annoying to see that every time. Any fixes or ideas on how to fix that?

Also, is there any way to make the vibrate a little stronger? I tried looking in the market but couldn't find anything for it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] satinder:
This ROM is doing really well on Battery life when compared with rest of the ERIS or Legend leak based ROMs. I was on 46% of battery when I went to bed. After 8 Hours the battery was at 41%
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] satinder:
I use Nitrodesk Touchdown for this reason. No matter which ROM it is I am never away from my corporate mails.

Its a paid app bu really worth the dollars.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] alsonlow:
bluetooth

hi, er can we send and receive files with bluetooth with this ROM?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kar1oko:
I'm very happy with this ROM, but I continue having the same problem, that I don't have with any other ROM (Vanilla or other based on Eris). The Music player doesn't see my podcasts (they are in mp3 format). It finds all my music collection but not the poscasts that are in fact in the same folder. I installed other music player (Mixzing) and it has the same problem, but at least it locates the album, but when I go inside it is empty.

I can play them going directly with file manager to the sdcard.

I wiped and rewiped everythying and reinstalled, but the same problem is found. It is really strange because, as I said, this is the only ROM that gives me this problem, and apart of it I think it is right now the best one.

Anybody else have similar problem?

Thanks

@stinerpl

For those who are complaining that battery life is bad. My battery lost 6% over the last 12 hours.

Always start from scratch when flashing ROM´s, (even MoDaCo, I had this draining phenomenon with MCR, too. ) you can´t control which stuff sits on your CPU if you do not start completely fresh.

@alsonlow

Please read the last 10 pages of the Thread.

@arshad

Which app is it that FC´s?

@welling.silver

Would you please be more precise?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] stingerpl:
I started fresh (wiped even my sd card). Didnt even have time to completely set-up the phone :(

Thanks a lot Satinder. I just purchased it!

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shadoon:
First : thank's for this rom it's very good work.

But for the futur can we have choise between a themed rom and a classic rom? it's will be nice.

Again, thank's for your work.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
My guess is something must be up with your phone 9something running you don't know about?) then as I can also confirm the battery life in 3.4 is great (easily last 24 hours with heavy use)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Update is coming to revert back to old sense
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] drygmasken:
Battery life is very good, down to 41% after about 26h. That's great.

Not a single FC so far for me, that's fabulous.

Like the new sense better, the original is a little dull to me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
There will be a small 'Original Sense' update later, and a fix for exchange & more tomorrow.

I am primarily working on my own version of the Legend leak right now though!

I'm glad to hear that the battery life is significantly better!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] satinder:
Great.

Once you setup everything including the license. Just take a backup from advanced settings (It backs up to the SD card). The next time you install it, you just have to restore the backup. Click on restore and it'll automatically detect the backup from the SD card. After this you just have to give the access password in case enabled on your exchange server. Everything gets setup automatically including the License key.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fuzzic:
Thnx for a great rom!

Been playing with it for a couple of days now and no bug og FC.

But I have a couple of questions:

- Is there any way I can download maps and use with the Google Navigator?

- Is it possible to change default Phone app? I want to use Dialer One instead beacuse the default Phone app syncs with new mail adresses and all of my Facebook friends.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shanz:
this update is great nathan, battery life is so much better and very happy with the whole package. Thank you for all the hard work! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
1) uninstall maps then download "nav launcher" in the market, follow its set up and select BRUT MAPS (if not in the USA) and then it will download and install what you need.

2)not without pushing other files to your phone via adb you can't.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Keiths098:
thanks for the update, it's amazing.:D

but it seems the camera link is broken when i tried to start the camera directly in the gallery, and it will just keep telling you the gallery application has stopped unexpectedly

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Your gps issue may be either, your not waiting long enough or because you didn't do a wipe.

Also your battery will probably be significantly better if you were to have done a wipe first.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kwiksand:
Just a quick note for all:

The task/process killer in spare parts doesn't play nice with Autokiller, I couldn't work out what was continuously killing Sense (a full reload of the home screen every time I pressed home). Turning autokiller off, solved the problem, as well as changing the Spare parts setting back to normal (from aggressive). I prefer Autokiller of course, more control!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] stingerpl:
Just found out, that my up time == awake time.

Any ways to fix it?

Edit: seems that reflashing radio has fixed it for someone in 3.3 - will try that
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] IcEman911:
I'm also having problems with regards to the battery life which is in direct contrast to what most people are saying.

For example, I was watching Youtube with around 20% life and whilst plugged in and charging, my phone died after an hour or so because it ran out of juice.

Therefore am I right in saying that applications like Youtube can drain more battery life even if its on continuous charge???

When I flashed Villainrom on, I wiped the data, wiped dalvik, and then wiped the data again, then installed the rom on. So I don't see what I did wrong?

Overall I am very happy with Villainrom since it is super quick with little to no lag thanks to Nathan, but the battery life is a small issue which could be in regards to the HTC kernel as identified within the first post.

Edit: I thought I'd also mention that I'm using the original radio which came with the latest Orange firmware (EU), so maybe I should upgrade it to JU?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] smiff:
