Does anyone else have problems with this ROM. Whenever I try to add a new clock to a main screen, I get a force close on Sense. Doesn't seem to matter which clock except for the flip/weather clock. I also can't seem to add facebook without it adding all my "friends" to my phone list. Lastly I seem to have an amazing amount of lag. Not sure if this has one of the new kernals or not but the lag was worse than before I rooted the phone. These are just what I notice in the first 15 minutes of the phone and then I get frustrated and resort back to my nandroid backup.

email Flipz...he needs to know this stuff...we are kinda like his Beta testers.

Is voice search working in this release?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] VinceOB:
Are those some of the screens from his "new" ROM? If so, I though 2.0 had the white taskbar? That kind of defeats the purpose of a "2.0" ROM...Either way, good job Flipz.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ggoldfingerd:
Does anyone use google voice?

With this rom, google voice won't take over dialing. The option is set to take over, but it doesn't actually take over.

I do run into a good deal of lag at times.

I am looking forward to the official release of Eclair. It nice to have working apps like youtube and google nav.

White theme is the default Android theme, that's why it's in AOSP ROMs

Black is HTC Sense themed, at least every HTC Sense phone I've seen has had it black stock.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rank78:
has anyone who donated after the release gotten an email with the dl link? just curious to see if they're going out or if flip is taking the weekend off.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ggoldfingerd:
Yes, I donated yesterday and I got an email later that day.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rank78:
ok he must be going through the list because my donation was completed yesterday too but no word yet. thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercado79:
I figure I should regardless, but... what do you think? I'm coming from Darchstar's 2.1 ROM and loading this one up. Wipe? I hate setting everything up from scratch!

EDIT:

Well, I gave it a shot. Tons of force closes. Wipe appears to be required.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gabby538:
Question, when will it be officially released, going on vacation soon, so this would be nice to have.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ajones7279:
You could always download it from your Hero and flash it on-the-go like I did at work one day. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mcfarlan:
There will probably be an update. Rom is very laggy. I installed Systray which was the only app I loaded and watched RAM go from 67 on boot to 28 when everythingwas fully loaded and I di not launch anything. Switching between applications screens is very fast but all applications open very slowly. There seems to be a Mem issue. Reported Mem went as low as 17 and it froze on me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Tipharet:
Yeah I noticed that too. I also would like for it to "feel" like a 2.0 ROM. How bout changing the icons natively as well as come through with a light or white taskbar.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercado79:
I use SMS Backup and Restore. You can find it in the Market for free. Works perfectly well, though it did lock up on this ROM the first time I tried to restore my contacts. I pulled the battery and tried again. It ran without problems. Same goes for Call Log Backup and Restore from the same developer.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercado79:
The widget doesn't update when you change to fahrenheit (though it probably would after reboot). i got it to switch by removing the widget and then adding it back on.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ccapasso:
Anyone else that is running this notice the people widget? I tried using it, and the graphics are kinda messed up. Not sure what happened.

I do like the ROM though, pretty nice :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercado79:
same here. the new htc music app is pretty nice, but i also can't get the widget to work. just show's up as a blank widget.

ditto on the people widget.

as for the rom being a bit laggy, i definitely saw that when it was first setting up and syncing contacts and email. but after that, not too bad. to make things run even faster, don't forget that spare parts is available. just disable animations or set them to "fast". also, i installed setcpu. so far, so good.

one other odd thing that i can't seem to replicate is a mms force closing.

the calendar app will also force close when you attempt to modify which calendars you want to sync with the phone's calendar app. so i think that by default, all calendars are shown.

and the contacts functionality is different and kind of frustrating to use. before, when you were in the phone tool and you clicked on favorites, you could then scroll to the left to get to the full list of contacts. not the case in this version. instead you have to use the "search people" app. even more annoying is that you can't choose to show specific groups of contacts (the groups tab doesn't show any google contact groups). instead all contacts are shown, though you do have the option to show only contacts that have phone numbers. hopefully this can get fixed too.

overall, i'm enjoying this release.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] toastcfh:
its not an htc music app its the android music app from 2.1. that is why the htc music widget fails. use the android music widget instead. i removed the htc music because others had issues with it. the android music i have not had any issuses with. but yeah htc music gone. android music added
[Hero CDMA Android Development] toastcfh:
edit im gonna do some testing i think i got a solution. but i need to get the numbers right first
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercado79:
thanks toast. android music widget works well.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mcfarlan:
Looking forward to it....thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dragothegreat:
lock up on boot

mine keeps getting stuck on htc boot screen .. i get htc screen.. then sound hero screen then htc screen with animation... quick vibrate then no animation on htc screen..... any one else having problems loading rom?

dtg
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
No, it loaded fine for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Street_Knowledge:
did that to me the first time, then i realized i forgot to wipe before installing
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dragothegreat:
works now... remember wipe.....

:cool: i cannot believe i forgot.... to wipe
[Hero CDMA Android Development] agentofboom:
This happened to me too. Originally i wiped, flashed- but it locked up. I wiped and wiped and flashed, locked up.

At the suggestion of of the devs, i wiped, flashed to a 1.5 rom, wiped then flashed to this rom. I guess the wipe isnt as complete as it needs to be when dealing with improperly signed roms and apks. This got it going.

Also note, it does take a VERY long time to boot the first time. Like any new rom, Make sure you give it a long time the first go-around (5-10 minutes sometimes).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercado79:
Yeah...first boot took at least 10 minutes.

My main issue is the contacts integration. All kinds of extra people being listed in there. I need to be able to hide some groups... Linking to Facebook contacts is way buggy. Auto-complete doesn't work in the text messaging app.

And lag seems to get progressively worse. Ugh...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] puertoblack2003:
yea,thanks i'll look into that.But i reverted back to gumbo, there are issues with the rom that needs to be squared away before i can consider it a everyday use.

same problem i had.This rom has potential.I'll look into it some more when it becomes stable.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ggoldfingerd:
Is anyone gmail push email working?

Mine won't update unless I refresh it. I have it set to auto update and background update.

HTC mail through exchange uses push email and that works fine.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercado79:
I think I'm seeing something similar. Exchange email is arriving fine, but Gmail seems to lag. The email comes through eventually, but not right away. And no notifications either (I think).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rank78:
does this include the gumbo kernel? i think i remember reading it was planned on being implemented. if not, is it able to be added? and does setcpu work on this?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
This is flipz/toast's rom, so its highly likely it won't include gumbo kernel, though they may implement many of its features in the kernel
[Hero CDMA Android Development] toastcfh:
eh i looked into the lowmemkiller but i found issues with it. as opengl didnt bench as high and such. i went from 29fps down to about 19. but then again i didnt tweek it to much just tried to echo the 2 different sets of values that are mentioned it the first post of this thread. i did how ever see an increase in ram for a period of time. but as soon as i went to using apps and stuff i didnt really see a differance. it did however make things a little snappier it seemed. but idk it couldve just been me. so it wasnt something drastic.

i did however include support for setcpu. even though i dont use it and in many test that performancelock and powermanagement to a really good job at scaling the cpu and do increase battery life. but thats just from what ive found. alot of people on here seem to like setcpu and asked for it so the got it.

ive played with ramswap and compcashe and also found myself not to impressed. but im not gonna make that call just yet. i just didnt add it to the build.

htc builds are increasing in size for sure with 2.1 coming soon im thinking squashfs is gonna play a major roll in the future 2.1 builds. i actually wonder what were gonna end up with as i havent seen a small 2.1 htc rom yet. i believe its gonna be a scaled down version without lwp and such. i believe that htc will have to give somewhere to pull this off on the hero. or invest alot of time into squashing the rom to fit on our devices. its rumored that a g1 dev has a 2.1 htc build that is scaled down and is missing lwp and some of the glam of 2.1. idk though thats just what the dude tod me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ripleys:
Regarding the clock/weather widget, I also had issues with getting it to show fahrenheit, but I got it to change by setting the phone to fahrenheit, then removing the widget and then putting it back on. :)

Can anyone tell me how to get multihome to work? :confused:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ripleys:
Exchange Activesync

BTW, one of the great things about this ROM is that it supports Exchange Activesync to the point that I can actually send emails with it! It connects to our EAS server, then tells me that it has to set certain policies. I have to set up a password, and then Activesync works fine for me. There are still a few kinks in it (stricter password policy than the server dictates), but native EAS support is a great step in the right direction! :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] RLothar:
Couple issues I experienced:

1. Choosing what calendars to view = force close

2. Changing home wallpaper = force close

I gave up after that. Too buggy still

In the start menu in list or grid view is there a reg entrie to change the menu highlight color? not the text highlight but the actual bar as you scroll down. It is blue now and would like it to be red. I am using the 3vo 11/25/09 rom. I want my topbar to stay black and just change the menu highlight color.
[Dash 3G, Snap General] PsychoPops:
Well due to lack of response and my lack of patience it forced me to go digging and I figured it out. Thanks for motivating me.:D
[Dash 3G, Snap General] Badcam:
Great. Good on you.

Can someone please make a status bar morph for 5.0.4 like this one. thanks in advance!:D
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] gtrplr71:
No takers. Well thanks for looking at the thread!:) I appriciate all the themers hard work.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] david1171:
Ask the person where you found that screen shot. It appears to be a mixture of various status bar icons.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] gtrplr71:
I sent a message to the dev yesterday no reply.:(
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] david1171:
After looking at it a second time, I realized where I saw it before.

http://android-theme-minus.googlecode.com/files/CarbonNexus_Status_Bar_Morph.zip

Credit to jonnybueno and myself for the images included. It is part of his carbon nexus theme.

framework-res.apk/res/layout/status_bar.xml and services.jar/classes.dex built against CM 5.0.4.1 source. If not compatible, I have built files against most CM releases and Enomther's 1.6.1.

Also, fixed up the icons a little bit. At the time, I hadn't done the 1X and H icons, in this morph, I included the 1X and H icons similar to all the other data icons.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] gtrplr71:
I will apply and report back
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] gtrplr71:
here is the result the clock is black and there is no charging status or blue in charging or standby
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] david1171:
The blue is in the images as the charging image. I do not know why it isn't showing up.

http://android-theme-minus.googlecode.com/files/White_text_clock_date_5.0.4.1.zip

I haven't done a morph that includes a .jar before so I probably screwed that up. Here is the sevices.jar for CM 5.0.4.1 that has just white text for the clock and date. Flash it in recovery.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] gtrplr71:
clock is back now is there a way to make the battery blue all the time even when not charging?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] david1171:
Go into the morph, open up all the blue images of the battery, then save them as the not-blue version of the battery.

ShortenMobile 1.4 [updated at 2010-03-24]

Description:

ShortenMobile watches the clipboard of the device and automatically shortens the urls for you. The application can be set to run at start up and hides in the background. I developed this application cause of the lack of this functionality in HTC Peep.

Currently implemented url shortening services:

bit.ly

tinyurl.com

snipurl.com

is.gd

anonym.to

How to use:

Install the cab file

Open ShortenMobile from StartMenu

Activate the switch "Run at startup"

Click on Hide-Softkey

Copy any url (including "http://" at the beginning) to the clipboard

The shortened url is available in the clipboard after the confirmation dialog has been shown

Requirements:

Microsoft .NET Compact Framework 3.5

Please post any errors, ideas, or your favorite url shortening services. ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wapvirus:
Thanks handy little thing :) but can you add

TinyURL

SnipURL

URLot.com

Hide Link
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marcells:
Currently, only bit.ly is supported. See "currently implemented url shortening services" in my initial post. ;)

Error after soft resetting Samsung Omnia

Hi all,

I installed ShortenMobile 1.1 on my Samsung Mobile last night. Looks like a great program. However, the next time I soft reset the phone (Resco Backup requires it after doing a backup), I received an error right after the phone gets past the Windows splash screen. Here's the error:

"The file 'My' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted

certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem

persists, try reinstalling or restoring the file."

Since ShortenMobile is the only new program that's starting at start up I went in and uncheckmarked the "Run at Startup" box, and then soft reset the phone again. Sure enough, the error goes away.

The custom ROM I am using has .NET framework 3.5.9085.00 running on it, and it was installed prior to installing ShortenMobile.

Anybody seen this before with your program? I didn't see any about similar problems. Never had v1.0 installed so this is fresh.

Robert
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] santaninja:
is there a program that will work on a MAC?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marcells:
Hi Ribert,

to start the application automatically at startup (when the checkbox "Run at startup" is beeing checked), there will be created a shortcut to the executable "ShortenMobile.exe" in the "\Windows\Startup folder" (when the checkbox is unchecked the shortcut is removed). I can't understand why the application tries to open something with "My" in the filename.

Do you have installed the application on sd card, the internal memory (in which path) or moved the application to another folder after installing?

As a workaround you manually could create a shortcut to "ShortenMobile.exe" in the "\Windows\Startup" folder. The parameter for starting the app in hidden mode is "-hidden". (Here's a website, that shows how shortcuts can be built. - http://bansky.net/blog/2007/07/creating-shortcuts-in-windows-mobile-smartphone/).

So your .lnk-file must contains something like this:

#58"\Program Files\ShortenMobile\ShortenMobile.exe" -hidden

I hope I could help you.

Regards

Marcell
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marcells:
I have no idea.

You must be kidding. Here's a Windows Mobile forum and you ask for Mac software. :)

But I have one idea to possibly solve your problem. ;)

You could install a virtual machine on your mac.

Then install a windows xp, vista or 7 on your virtual machine.

Then download the windows mobile 6 SDK from Microsoft and install the emulator on your virtual windows system.

Then start the emulator and install the cab you can download in this thread.

(Also don't forget to configure the network settings in both, the virtual windows and the emulator.)
​

But in earnest, developing an application for the mac will surely be faster than my proposed steps above. :D

Regards

Marcell
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Robertjm:
Hi Marcell,

Thanks for responding. I installed it to My Storage, which is the option that lets you install it to the 8gb storage that's on board the Omnia i910. Perhaps the space in My Storage is causing a problem? I had assumed you didn't require installation to main memory...Correct?

I will enable the automatic startup and then look at the shortcut generated to see what it says and let you know later.

Robert
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Robertjm:
malformed link

OK, so here's what the link file has in it:

67#"\My" Storage\Program Files\ShortenMobile\ShortenMobile.exe -hidden

as you can see, the space is causing a problem. I created a copy of the file and moved the second quote mark to behind the .exe. Then I did a soft reboot. sure enough no problem, and I double checked, and the program is currently running!

So I guess this is a bug report that you're not accepting spaces in the file name structure.

Robert
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marcells:
Thanks for your information. Now I know, that I have to build the shortcut on my own way. I expected that the windows mobile api I used would create the shortcut in the right way.

I will see what I can do on this weekend to repair this functionality.

Upgrade to Version 1.2

Just upgraded to Version 1.2!

Changes:

Startup is unsuccessful, when the application path contains whitespaces
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marcells:
Now I create quotes around the path and then append the -hidden arguments. I tested the application on my device with an application path which contains whitespaces. It works correctly.

Please inform me, if the upgrade to version 1.2 solves your problem.

Thanks marcells very handy little application I am using it all the time now another service I use is http://anonym.to/en.html not sure if you can include this,

see here:

http://drop.io/about

and here:

Good luck and thanks again :)

Just upgraded to Version 1.3!

Changes:

Added new service: anonym.to
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marcells:
I implemented the anonym.to service right now in version 1.3. I'll inspect drop.io at weekend and check what I can do. I think, that I have to use unmanaged api calls to get files, which are "copied" to clipboard via file explorer. That could be a bit tricky. :rolleyes:

Regards
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wapvirus:
Coming on nice this app is very useful please keep up your hard work and thanks for considering the drop io option as that is great for dumping small files or images for others to download :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marcells:
Thank you! I also thought about integrating the twitpic.com service, but getting images or files from clipboard is not as easy as getting simple text like links. But as I did promise, I'd see what I can do. :)

Hi,

Just installed the 1.3 cab but when i want to start i get an error:

It can't load PluginInterface.DefaultPluginAttribute from assembly PluginInterface, Version=1.0.3711.35160, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null

Any solution?

Same error here..

original 1.44 ROM..

EDIT: the 1.2 CAB does work!

EDIT: the 1.2 CAB doesn't work with Opera Mobile 10 Beta 3, it does with Explorer! Can you fix this?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marcells:
Version 1.2 should work. Did you copy the full url including http:// to clipoard?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DirkjeX:
Opera 10 doesn't work because there is no http :// in the adress-bar. When you manually edit that adress and type http :// in front of it and then copy it, it works.

A new version for Opera 10 (no need for the http ://) would be nice :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marcells:
Uhh, okay. Thanks for that information.
