damn, I've got all my contacts at google

and contact sync is not working!

how can I fix this? I need my contacts...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] loki6666:
don't know what it is in my case but I can not establish my data connection. with MoDaCo it worked 1h ago
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] akirainblack:
Backup for root users (from the market) allows you to backup messages and call log amongst other things
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] henky92:
I know there's def something wrong with this ROM

glad I made a backup of MoDaCo;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] akirainblack:
1) It was in the previous versions as well.

3) menu -> settings -> sound and display, scroll down and you'll be able to disable haptic there.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Flame-R:
if ur all having so much problems, just use the beta test3 its the link above, ive had no problems with it really, it runs fine!

but feedback to np 1st before reverting.

i havent had the chance to test it as i am at work when i get home ill download the link, and see what the fuss is about.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] loki6666:
me too, I'm very glad :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dany_my:
-What is the newest version? (the first download links or the link in the end of the first post? villain 3-4 or villain3test3?)

-If i have the first beta of the villain rom 3.0-Do I need to do a wipe before flashing?

Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
It is the last link Villain 3-4

and yes wipe
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Blackout82:
Bugs i've seen on test4

- some contacts have lost their pics

- had to change settings to enable market

- did wipe before installing and yet htc widgets have doubled

hadn't tested bluetooth headphones yet
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Bornin:
All fine here except syncing google contacts.

Flipping back to the previous version for now.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Piercy0812:
i cant seem to get apps2sd working... does it work on this rom? Also, has mms been fixed in this rom?

Thanks for the new rom :) gratz on your new hero :)

Update:

:D Blutooth appears to pair happily, will test with a call later

:( Booting apps seems to take a few seconds (confirming what is mentioned above)

:( Handcent FC's if you try and view a conversation thread as does HTC messages (will see if the update on the market makes any difference when I get home)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
Thanks for the info so far.

I'll attempt to fix the bugs and re-upload a more stable version asap.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Gtot:
Uptil now, it runs without any problems on my Hero. No FC's at all.

So happy to have Email.apk back again. BUT !!!!! all other keyboard languages than English has gone again :-(

Except from that it looks good. Good work Nathan.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robtue:
All is working great here so far except apps2sd. Handcent, bluetooth on calls, google sync on mail, contacts and calendar all no problems. Does seem a bit slow but I've found that thats not uncommon at first on new roms, it normally picks up after a few reboots or something.

Great work, thanks

Maps seems to have died ?

Google maps seems to have been removed from the package in Beta 4.

When i try to run Nav Launcher, it does download the maps application,

but when i try to install it, it ends up with the message "not installed"

Is there any chance that you could include the Maps application in the next release ?

Best regards, and thanks for all your good work !
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fantastxmw:
I'm downloading. Is it better than the previous version?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kawai_sammi:
sorry , i try to flash the chinese input "update.zip" , every time seems ok, but when i change to chinese input, it FC.....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] zzzz2006:
beta 4 no chinese:mad:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
Sorry for the lack of Chinese. It seems I used the incorrect CIME file.

I'll sort it asap.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
First off

- After first boot voice control app force closed as soon as it booted up

- it told me I had a backup on my sd card and do I want to restore it? Very confused but said yes

- Calendar storage force closed (maybe due to backup being restored?)

- gives you choice of home or sense again (set sense to default)

- no set-up added gmail account manually

REBOOT

-Seems fast enough

- Downloading My Backup Pro to restore backup now

- after reboot market seems to work fine (at one download at a time) and 3g is now connecting

- restoring contacts (apparently I have 283 of them) – taking forever btw

- Still restoring backup…. Lalala 78% now

- Data restored (rebooting as required)

- Froze on lock screen (battery pulled)

- seems fine this time round

Post data

- Whole thing seems a bit laggy at the moment, but will clean things up in a minute then test again

- clock widget was doubled up on homescreen, network location seems to be working

- adding facebook account

Post applications

Screen seems a bit unresponsive at time, probably lag related

- no need for htc mail widget as app has gone

- memory seems good (about 88mb after closing things which is good considering the apps I have installed)

- not sure on battery life, sync seems to constantly be on

- google nav might be working (further testing required)

General Summary

Seems good, difficult to say in a little time how much better than 2.1 it is, but I think that it is definitely better than 2.1

I would like to have HTC mail (so I can use the widget)

It is good to have most sense things back working again.

Widget in screenshot

Hi,

Whats the widget in the screenshot on page one showing internal/sd free space and battery level??

Cheers

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dr3as:
Will there be norwegian there too?

If you plan a fast update with some bugs removed i think i'll wait for that one...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] andready:
No one????
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] taipan541:
hey, does this beta4 allows to use epsresso optimized? :p just asking.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] akirainblack:
Search the market for:

Internal memory widget

SD Memory widget

You should be able to find it with no problems. Will try and remember to post later with exact names (am at work so no access to the market)

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] andready:
Thanks, just like that:)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] piotrreq:
Ok - my feedback raport:

1. No polish language - morelocale2 doesn't fix all. For example the new dialer is still in english, and there is only english t9 dictionary

2. I had problems with sycing google contacts. They appeared after a couple off manual syncs (just like in 2.1)

3. Google nav tries to install from some strange server google maps 3.3. It installs with error but works. On marked there is visible update to 4 but the update doesn't work.You have to uninstall maps and install them via Market

4. I cannot torn off keboard Haptic feedback, even via Spare parts

5. It's quite laggy (Just like 2.1 or even more) although Softweg benchmark schows ~149 cpu score, with isn't that bad. My wife's favourite game - Jewels is almost unplayable.

6. Cellular network htc Widget still doesn't work properly. It can turn on 3g for the first time, but whet You touch it again it turns the network off but it looks like it was on (this was in 2.1 allready)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Jewls is playing fine for me
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dr3as:
Are the dictonarys gone :S ? Exept for the english i guess.. Well beta 3 had norwegian, and i kind of need that :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Xian_2:
I also in need of norwegian.

I like the new nexus one mail.apk, and also the new phone layout. Got occasionally some FC on sense.

How can I tether via BT ?

Any chance for the VPN in this rom ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] morphen:
+1 for norwegian :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] simondadiamond:
I had a quick question for the developper and everyone actually...

How come APN Backup/restore is not part of every custom ROM ?

is there a built in way im missing? what if im stuck in a no wifi zone and cant set it up (ok im being extreme lol) but yea... what gives? any reason its not part of every build ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bloomaster12:
voice

Google voice search and voice navigation do not work on my phone.

It shows "Audio problem".

The rest looks very good. My respect
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
My phone has completely frozen a few times, you think this might be an overclock issue?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Gtot:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] piotrreq:
Sometimes it's running almost ok, but sometimes it lags very hard. I'm afraid to show the phone to my wife because She is very sensitive about responsiveness :D

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Well lol. However I played one game on it perfect so far. Will test again later and see.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] akirainblack:
Thought I'd be a smart arse and restore beta 3 via nandroid, then use Titanium backup to backup Teeter, to then restore on beta 4 :( Sadly it doesn't work, just asks me what I want to restore and doesn't give the options for app or app+data. Just in case anyone else decides to try.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Maybe nathan will be able to make us a .zip of teeter to flash.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Romdan:
Anybody knows how can i remove htc lockscreen and have the lockscreen which has the speaker and unlock options? Thanks:rolleyes:

apps2sd is missing? please include. thanks. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Yes I do this all the time and is already in this thread several times, but due to the size of this thread I will post instructions again.

Download Terminal Emulator from the market then enter this:

su

# mount -oremount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

# rm system/app/HtcLockScreen.apk

Then reboot your phone.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] folgui:
Hi!

Without any apps installed, only default, seems stable rom and not slowly, this is important ;) Only one FC with Voice Search since installation.

Minor issues:

- On first boot "Voice Search" application is not responding and later it doesn't work, because of an audio problem.

- In Settings -> Language and Keyboard -> Android Keyboard options seems duplicated, but options in it are a bit different.

- No HTC calendar widget, i think it was working ok in 2.1, wasn't it?

- HTC Photo Album keeps in loading state forever...

- HTC People widget doesn't sync correctly, some contacts don't sync, others sync with facebook account, even if you don't mark facebook in "Android Contacts" app.

- Personally don't like blue background of icon's text in HTC widgets (wifi, gps, etc).

- Only english locale, need morelocale2 app.

Going to try other things...

Thanks Nathan, keep on, i think it's the right way ;)

Regards, folgui.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] akirainblack:
:D Just tested, incoming calls pick up perfectly well (didn't send the call to answerphone as it used to). Will test outgoing via bluetooth headset in about 15-20 mins and update as shortly after as I can (once I've also tested the market ;) )

:( Photo Album widget doesn't work (not that I use it, just testing) says album missing
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Yeah I can confirm I am also getting "audio problem" in voice search app
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Nymphe:
Hi, is it possible to compile a specific kernel with this modification on .config ?

CONFIG_HTC_HEADSET

This entire line should be replaced with the following:

# CONFIG_HTC_HEADSET is not set

Now repeat this process with the following two entries:

CONFIG_MSM_SERIAL_DEBUGGER

CONFIG_MSM_SERIAL_DEBUGGER_CONSOLE

and replace them with:

# CONFIG_MSM_SERIAL_DEBUGGER is not set

# CONFIG_MSM_SERIAL_DEBUGGER_CONSOLE is not set

I hope you can help me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kawai_sammi:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Nathan aside from a few small bugs this seems to be working ok as a whole.

Voice search is the biggest problem I have encountered so far, and I never really use it anyway.

Think I can use this build until the next best one is out.

Good Job.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nightwarrior10:
Nice ROM, but a little to slow for me. Back to Modaco 3.2
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] danchappers:
Hey,

I've been running it for a few hours, so far everything seems ok, a little bit laggy in places however nothing major, from what I've tested not noticed any bugs, however I'm in work so not been able to give it a thorough test.

I am no longer getting the audio error on voice search.

However a new error has appeared

It now says "connection error, unable to connect to google search"
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Gtot:
After rebooting a couple of times, it is running fairly smooth, even as i have installed Expresso on top of it.

When playing with Navigation, it kept saying lost gps signal until i rebooted the phone.

All in all no problems for me except for the missing Danish language in T9.

It is a bit slower than the other betas, but i guess Nathan already said that before releasing it.

Super work Nathan.

Your ROM is the best that i tried yet (with some minor bugs). The speed of the UI is like wow. I also tried CKDroid 1.6 which is also great and has an own kitchen app to download where you can select which apps should be integrated into the ROMMaybe you can offer a similar tool?.

But it has no Sense UI and is slower than yours.

Any news when the final will be ready?

If you promise to keep up the good work, i will donate.

one more bug I've noticed.

When i listen to music on stereo bluetooth headphones, volume goes down and up. Moreover sometimes I hear something like a helicopter in the background.

On clean 1.5 there was no problem

on CKDroid 1.6b no problem as well.

I've got latest radio, and i'm using default mp3 player, headphones are HT820
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] phenome:
Hmmm and any hints to change the Touch Input language?

Beta 3.0 Wave 3 had Portuguese. This one only has English. Even with "morelocale 2" from the market.

Any other ideas? Perhaps some .zip I can flash?

Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] knudsen81:
when you use morelocale the text input t9 don't change name, when you have you lang. and go to text input settings the first is where you can mark qwerty and next is lang, the text field shall be emty then you olso have portuga. t9
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ptm:
HOw do you switch keyboards so that i can try out Voice to text?

Also when i try to enable Apps2sd it says its not found.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] phenome:
Thanks for the reply, knudsen81. I changed my locale to Portuguese (Brazil) then went to the Touch Input config.

After the 'querty' option, there's the option to change the keyboard language. There's only 'english', it's marked, and unfortunately there isn't much I can do from there.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] akirainblack:
Handcent won't update. It says there's not enough room despite there being lots (both internal memory and SD memory) :(

Trying a nandroid restore, will then remove the app and install directly from the market clean rather than try to update.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] aceman3000:
Here is my test of the Beta 4

*** pros ***

it´s nice to have the choice to select between normal homescreen and sense at start after install

apps menu scrolls smoothly (was a bit sluggish under CKDroid 1.6b)

nice zoom function in camera app

*** cons ***

no german locale

where is synching of my google contacts (it was there in BETA3-Test)? I only have the choice of mail and calendar :(

Some items are not beeing translated into german (after installing More Locale 2)

* in each subsetting there are a few texts missing in my language

* Settings App -> Privacy

* Call Settings -> Phone Settings, Cell broadcast, clear voicemail notification

Settings -> Language & keyboard settings appears twice (maybe because of More Locale 2?)

can´t get voice input to work. where can i enable it? can it understand german words?

Android Contacts shows wrong Letter labels (for example M appears on my contacts that begin with A. weird bug)

*** nice to have ***

Review

Generally this is a very good and stable ROM, however there a few issues that need fixing

- Voice search not working - Audio problem

- I occasionally get Force close on com.htc.bgp (always happens on boot and at various other points)

- I noticed that after adding your google account your contacts don't sync until you have rebooted

- Lastly Google Navigation doesn't work - App opens and gets gps fix and then suddenly closes and returns to the Nav home screen where you enter the location you wish to travel to.

- Google push still not working

Apart from the issues above everything else is fine, this is definetly a big improvement over 2.1. Speed is ok, not the fastest but not slow either

I hope you can fix the above issues

Lastly thanks for producing these great ROMs
