fullscreen weather animation :D

look for a city where it rains, you will see the wiper over your home screen...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
No it is your weather app.

It now tells you your weather on the full screen (unless you tell it not too) should be updating once an hour by default.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjasper:
Hmmm, I have an issue with SU request, black screen and eventual force close on the app asking for it.

Any ideas??
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Install "Spare Parts"
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Piercy0812:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
so anyway do you have a copy of that desire wallpaper?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Piercy0812:
just got it:

edit: all wallpapers are located in system\customize\resource in the update.zip 3.1
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Thanks! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjasper:
Star, that worked, thank you
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
No problem
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Maybe Nathan should add a FAQ section to the start of this thread detailing things like how to use SU permissions and how to view Gallery in Landscape etc
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] reinert:
ok ill do that but how do i put the sdcard in the computer?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Does your recovery not allow you to mount usb?

I have not used a recovery that old before.

Can someone else take over here I really should be doing my work :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjasper:
With an sd card reader and adaptor for usb, you can get them in most computer shops, mobile phone shops, online....

Something like this is what you are looking for: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/...m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_r=1FP756VKV5NB31HF0MR6

My impression so far...

No big issues with the ROM at all. Widgets, sync, push, NAV is all working. I removed 3D Gallery since it's buggy, the HTC Album is okay for me. Flashed the 3.1 about 11 hours ago. Used the phone as I usually do; a few phonecalls, sms, a few emails and some surfing. Still got 62% left on the battery. That's totally approved!

There are only two things that bothers me a little. The usual mms problem and the LED trackball. When I receive a mail/sms/phonecall it goes off like crazy. Same when I download something from the market. But theres are only minor problems, and I can survive with them :)

Great job, Nathan! You rock my phone!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Yeah it does flash a bit :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dbsoundz:
Sorry guys for stupid question ;) but what is a FULL WIPE, Dalvik wipe & Ext partition wipe?! I have only the choice to wipe my device... Is there everything included likle Dalvik and Ext wipe?!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Upgrade your recovery image to a newer one.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nysos:
I haven't been able to get the Facebook sync working on 3.0 or 3.1. Tried everything, manual sync, rebooting, wiping Facebook data then resyncing, etc etc. It just won't sync the Facebook friends, the list to link contacts to Facebook accounts is empty.. :(

Edit: all the rest works fine though! Just donated :) (0BP756111Y438582P)

Facebook htc sense sync working only over GPRS/3G?

All working great now... but FACEBOOK sync working only if i turn off my WIFI...

AnyOne with the same problem?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] BobderDritte:
one question ... i tried raiddroid wie 2.1 sense and its awesome fast .. i mean ists faster then modacco or anything else for me ..

so the question is, how fast is this rom, how fast is sense ?

once i trier a fast rom i dont want go back to sth slower

i dont want to critizise your work russel, i knwo this rom is much better but my first priority is the speed ;-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MisterRio:
Sorry, almost missed this one. I didn't hide them, I deleted them once and for all.

(press and hold contact, then choose delete)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
yeah deleting is the only fix for now as this is based on a CDMA rom and they don't have sim cards therefore they don't need this option in their menu.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] muchbt:
after i replaced the file libicudata.so in /system/lib to get contacts order by chinese my phone cant start anymore.any help will be appreciated.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dbsoundz:
Thanks for answer... The recover image is independent of the ROM, so I can choose whatever I want?!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RichardFHTC:
NPRussell

I know your busy and exhausted,

On your last 2.1 rom before the Eris release, exchange had a GAL search function and the mail layout was differenet on the phone itself , it seems to be back at the 1.5 version of mail in this release,

Is this because you have used a differenet mail app, or Eris itself does not have the same software releases as the last Rom you were using
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjasper:
Any one you like, Amon Ra is pretty good
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Yes I would use Amon Ra's latest one
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sjeffrey:
1. yes

2. yes on betas, no on 3.0 and 3.1 final

What I did was repartition sd card, wipe everything (probably not needed because of partitioning but did it anyways), installed 3.0 final, removed all widgets, rebooted. No widget issues. In the betas I couldn't get rid of the widget duplication no matter what I tried.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] silverstream:
Ah ...... somehow .. after 3hr, photo from facebook are not sync into contacts yet
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] eeww:
i really like this rom, but i hope it can have Touch input (Chinese)!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fcknghll:
Will give this a go!

BIG thanks for such quick progress! :D

BTW: will u be adding the the Stock 2.1 gallery app?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Pixeye:
Hi-Speed Mirror

Hi,

Thanks for this rom !

i made a mirror here : http://ks33077.kimsufi.com/open/Villain/villain12.zip

on my private dedicated server ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] klaus27:
Gosh, this is annoying.... I flashed and configured version 1.1 only 30 minutes ago.. :)

Thanks dude, will try Exchange and report
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] derDominic:
Just flashing ;) Will report in a few minutes if exchange (z-push) is working or not.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
Update - exchange is working for me! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] klaus27:
Exchange is working, that's genious :))

Thanks a million
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] derDominic:
And i know how you did test it ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
awesome.

Has anyone come across anything that does not work yet?

I may give this a try on Thursday (day off work)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MisterRio:
Nice work, but you're not there yet I'm afraid. I've tried another 2.1 based ROM which had Google Nav working here in The Netherlands. I'll look up what ROM that was when I'm at home.

Furthermore, maybe it's an idea to include more locale settings in your ROM.

Keep it up!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Dakeyras:
downloading then I'll be flashing, I'll be back with some feedback. great work so far!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
haha - I was about to PM you. Still, Thank you for the test account :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Was that 2.1 based rom running with HTC Sense? as google nav seems to be working on most non-sense UI 2.1 roms but not ones with sense
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kingkarl:
Hi,

I want to test the rom.

Is this Rom for GSM Heros?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MisterRio:
Yep, pretty sure I'm not mistaking it with a 2.0 ROM, but I'll look it up as soon as I get home tonight.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] wouzer:
Might have been one without Sense like the chef explained.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] derDominic:
Just synced mine, its really working fine 'bout 250 Contacs, also with photos ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kokiri081187:
Thanks for doing such a great and fast job !

And I'm looking forward to have the autosync with gmail.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] z0nic:
Yay! :)

One thing that's kinda bugging me a bit; In the contact list, there's no way to NOT display my gmail contacts... If I press the menu-button, and select View, I get the following: Phone, Exchange, SIM, Facebook...

Where'd the Google-ones go?

They're showing in my contact list.. which I don't want....

Oh, and what's that blue thing around the text on the toggle Wifi/GPS/Data-buttons? :P

On the other hand, congrats on a working 2.1 ROM with Rosie/Sence :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Uniqron:
downloading now. (50kb/s average, ffs go faster mate!)

About fast: awesome that you got that many features fixed that fast. Keep those updates coming! (esp now with no-wipe updates!)

About the donation thing: How much do you need to get your hands on a second hero? (I'll chip in a bit if I end up using this rom for more than a day)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kendong2:
first major problem: installed a few apps, then tried to install another which failed with "unsufficient space" error. after that phone won't boot anymore, bootanimation just stops, no useful information at all from logcat. also i have only 308kb free space after flashing on /system, could that cause trouble?

as soon as i get of work i will start to rip that rom apart and see where i can save some space, for starters maps should be moved to /data...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ratson:
I have only 3 HTC widgets, not even the clock is there. i did full wipe. what can be the problem?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fabsn182:
A few things:

- Voice Search doesn't recognize foreign languages

- Some Apps won't appear in the markes (e.g. the game "Blockx 3D")

- Bootscreen gets overwritten everytime you boot your phone. I want my own bootscreen animation so I push my files to the phone and delete the ones included in the Rom. Won't work. Can I just delete the bootanimation.zip in /system/media?

- The Trackball flashes like hell. It's really annoying cause it also flashes when you start playing a song with MixZing or d/l something from the market.

But despite those things the rom is great. Love it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kookix:
Ok a little battery test:

My phone was reboot after a full charge, ~ 5:15 am

Battery start to drain at 6:15 am

We could see a kind of linear discharge: 10% in 3,5h, 20% in 7h.

It was during my sleep ^^ So no activity from me on my phone and screen turn off.

I notice in every ROM this line in log, it pop up every 5 secondes !

What is that ? The battery life could be better with a fix ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
you need to save your necessary files from you sd card

format your sd card

do a full wipe

reflash the rom

add your important files back to your sd card (music/pictures etc)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RichardFHTC:
Sensor Drivers

MaXo64

[ROM][Sense 2.1] HeroDroid v0.1 "Eris latest dump port!!!" +Wifi fixed!!

Wifi/sensors drivers (will be included in next version) : Multiupload just Flash it

the ROM is FAST!! but I don't know if it's Stable..

Are the Sensor drivers already installed in your release or do we need to install them

Cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
already working
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nysos:
Yup, I turned off wifi and everything syncs fine! So I have this issue as well.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ratson:
so formatting only the ext2 partition is not enough.. sad....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitedevilo:
I partially confirm this, for me it did not worked in the morning with wi fi off and HDSPA on, however after few hours of work I checked phone again and it works now
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RichardFHTC:
cheers

Many thanks

HTC widgets

Sorry, I know this question has already been discussed... but I don't have time to search an answer in this very long thread...

First time I boot the phone with 3.1 villain ROM I had all htc widgets... after short time I rebooted the phone and most of HTC widget were disappear...

Is there a solution?

Thanks

:rolleyes:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] reidefors82:
is there any free backup-app that actually saves the layout of the homescreens, apps, settings ?

My backup pro trail is out of date
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Wipe and start again.

Or try flashing without a wipe first.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] meatmaker:
I can confirm. WiFi off, 3G on and all the FB-Contact-Pictures are flying in within a minute. :-) Thx
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Piercy0812:
edit: im a retard its cos it was on silent lol
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MacCarron:
+1 for gps not getting a signal. It's the only thing that does not work for me so far. Great ROM nonetheless, super fast and smooth :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Strange mine is not, and also not set to on by default either

Maybe its because I restored my settings using mybackup pro
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mjcook1984:
the facebook sync to use your contatcs facebook picture itsnt work at all for me it doesnt even give me a list to select contact or anything. also i rebooted my phone and my widgets disappered from the add widget list :eek:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjasper:
I can, have you got usb debugging switched on or off??
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RichardFHTC:
NPrussell

Same here thats why I asked about the sensor drivers from the other Rom post with the original dumb users explained that after installing these the GPS works, however it has just been confirmed on here these are already installed with this ROM
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Piercy0812:
dw im a retard, its cos it was on vibrate.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arkkimede:
Clarification

I've read in the first page

"If you experience any problems with WIDGETS in this rom, ensure you have deleted any unnecessary crap from SD card, along with wiped everything, including ext partition. If you're still having problems, FORMAT YOUR SD CARD - I'm pretty sure something's being left behind on your SD card."

This mean that I do not have any partition on the SD card or

I have to format and redo the typical partitions

1) Fat32

2) ext2

3) linux-swap

TIA
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fabsn182:
Those plus:

The haptic feedback is imho WAY too light. Turn up the vibration please :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Don Vincenzo:
Yeah, it's a bit of a pain...thought Spare Parts might be able to change its settings, but no joy...any thoughts Nathan?

Otherwise, absolutely loving this ROM, and it's fast!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] code72:
Same for me, last update 3.1 is F A N T A S T I C and all works like a charm , only issue is drain battery more fast than previous
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Shizophren:
Does anyone have an alternative download link? When i download from mediafire, my download abbort itself at ca. 50%. I try it 7 time till now.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] BTaylor927:
Could you add an update.zip which will give a standard hero boot animation? I'm not a big fan of the nexus one boot screen...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
If you go to settings you have some control over what causes the led to flash e.g. sms, missed call etc.

Just untick the things you don't want it to flash for.

I HAVE NOT TRIED THIS THOUGH SO IT MAY NOT MAKE A DIFFERENCE
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fabsn182:
Makes no difference. There's no option for "download" or "playing music".
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mmiii:
GPS works without any problems for me.

I only had to turn it on under location in settings. ;-)

Perhaps it is a stupid reference that may help as well :-)

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gxg:
HTC Sysn not working. Everytime I want to sync... USB debugging automaticly is switched on.

Galerry is not working in landscape.

If it's a custom rom.. a tinny small explorer program would be apreciated to have "by default".. because ... if you don'y have GPRS EGDE 3G or any internet connection... to be able to restore a backup from SD card... at least for contacts.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
maybe you can stop those apps creating notifications then they will not cause the phone to flash.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MacCarron:
Thanks but i already tried that..i also tried to use several gps-based apps just to be sure. My external gps works so it should not be a problem related to the satellite network :p. I'll try again later, maybe the first fix is veeeery slow, who knows.

Sync works fine for me..are you sure you have the correct usb driver version?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Higgsy:
I have the issue the notification light flashes like mad when a call is coming through then stops - should it not continue after the call/message has been receieved? tried turing off and on in settings but still same. Also anyone got a workaround for the mms yet
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Haha just experienced my first full screen whether change

Awesome :D

About widgets dissappearing:

Q1. No.

Q2. Yes.

Flashed rom a few times, rebooted, eventually lost almost all widgets, then deleted some tmp or system files from the root of sdcard, and it worked.

Bugs:

1. GPS unstable. Worked afer reboot, but not sure in won't break again

2. Java not working (heeeelp!)

3. Trackball flashes for every notification. Even for downloading, then installing a program, or connecting to USB.

4. Navigation app is not working?

5. Search widget doesn't search on device. Something wrong?

6. Locales not setting completly. Ex, my week begins on Sun, and should be on Mon. Installed MoreLocale2, it didn't help.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mjcook1984:
scratch that it seems to have jumped into life now :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Piercy0812:
huh?? what you on about? :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
The weather app, now does animations on your home screen.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Piercy0812:
by default or do you need to have a widgit or something? :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
no by default, wait until the weather changes in your area e.g. rain or clouds etc then you will see :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Piercy0812:
lol now im waiting for it to rain lol.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marcoyee1989:
I cant use the Bluetooth File Transfer in 3.1

anyone have the same problem?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] reidefors82:
my weather-widget is long gone... only 3 widgets left :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
rewipe and flash again
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Walto:
So far every single aspect working perfectly.. only thing my contacts has multiple entries same phonenumber ie.. person X has 6 times his number on contact sheet.

Bluetooth HF working great too.. :)

battery went 100% -> 94% during workday.. listening 2h music, testing rom generally and surfing net and mail about 2h via WiFi

so indeed best rom for hero so far with 2.x android

thank you very much nathan. you did amazing job and really fast :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kolaf:
My GPS also dropped out, GPS status showed me No satellite reception. It worked after rebooting the phone, but I'm not very confident that it will not happen again.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nysos:
Or unlock it and don't touch the screen for a second of 2.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tron13:
Before 1 hour i have the same problem...

1st, open your sd card with windows explorer (from pc) select the folders that you want for back up and copy to your desktop, then delete ALL FILES AND FOLDERS that you dont want OR you dont know what is it... ( before that you have to choose from your windows pc that you show all files and folder - hidden files AND operating system files)

2nd wipe hero

3rd flash

4 enjoy your super fast and stable HERO 2.1
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
haha nice one :)

Still have to have a weather that has an animation though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] benlc:
The bugs I have :

The phone is warm sometime, then freeze (so I have to take off the battery and reboot)

HTC Widgets disappear

Trackball lights for nothing

Some games aren't working properly (Toon Warz for exemple)

Gallery horizontal view

The rom takes a lot of space compared to mcr 3.2 b5
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] htb2050:
After a hour of heavy testing I think the Rom is very fast...pretty complete...stable...all widsets and Apps completely working NO FCS AND WIDSETS MISSING AFTER REBOOTS ..... ****ING AWESOME ......... THANKS NPRUSSEL ....YOU ROCK..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
This process should definitely work
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lozfromcorby:
this rom is immense!

that is all :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Piercy0812:
damn tis sunny atm. lol
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] reidefors82:
Ok, i´ll try that
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lozfromcorby:
one thing...would it work if i was to flash the animated flip clock widget from another thread? i've only tried it on a 1.5 rom before...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marcoyee1989:
