Hey Stickman,

thanks for the Update. But now i have Problem with my SDCARD. I can upload some Files from my PC but when i use a fileexplorer on the Hero i don't see the files. After a reboot the are there.

I make a complete wipe (factory Data and format the ext3 and delete the fat32 partition on create it new.)

Does anybody has the same Problem?

Regards

Hermann
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grassiekuik:
*Boohooo* So I did it all for nothing :(

Ah well at least I learned something from it.

BTW updated without wipe and looks like it is a bit faster. And great to have the blue back
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kevinlow:
would it be any problem if i flash the sense 1.5 without wipe coming from other rom??
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
You shouldnt have any problems, you may experience duplicate icons in the application launcher depending on what was added to the data directory of the Rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kevinlow:
thanks for the reply..i will flash now..thanks for yr great work
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Everything has been solid for me on my continous testing, I myself certainly havent experienced any screen response issues.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kevinlow:
my hero cant start after flashing without wipe..waited for 10 mins..restoring now..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Been a number of reported success for update without needing wipe, that may be down to incompatible apks in your app2sd partition if enabled or in the data/app directory. I would suggest you wipe your app2sd partition if enabled and if that fails wipe data and reflash.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Rui-Cruz:
Is autokill needed in this rom or is it somehow build in?. I still have my mobile data issue, but I will try to roll back to an older radio later today. Didn't think of it before, that might be it. Flashed without wiping, works like a charm. :)

HTC_CIME

This is the chinese input method for chinese user.

Step:

1. Put the zip file inside the sdcard ( not in any folder )

2. Boot into the recovery.

3. Select the zip file and flash it.

4. Done.

Go to your Setting>Locale & text>Touch Input Chinese.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] TheCarl:
i installed this rom today and my sd-card died right after.

unlucky me? :p
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
I would say so, if you use apps2sd that may be the cause, long term use can decrease lifetime of your SD card due to constant read, writes. Or possibly defect micro-SD card, too many factors. You could try to repair it with a Linux partition editor.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] saar73:
Any mirror links please?

download is very slow..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Rui-Cruz:
Does anybody know a link to working Hero radios? the link in first page with all the different radios doesn`t work.

I was trying to go bak to 63.18.55.06EU_6.35.06.18

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mstulanovic:
I downloaded the new sensehero, but before I flash my Hero, I will do the Nandroid backup..

One question though, what about the flipping clock?! Is it there, or should I flash the Flipping Clock.zip after flashing the ROM???:confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Rui-Cruz:
Thankyou . :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Rui-Cruz:
flash as yould would another rom after the initial setup . says in first post.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gamer_frek:
Flipping clock will be removed after you flash

So first flash your ROM

after all the initial setup is complete(after htc setup)

Head back to recovery and flash the flipclock
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mstulanovic:
thanks a lot guys...

Thnx for testing out a benchmark:D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] downbringer:
just moved over from villian 2.1, looks good, may keep hold of this one!

thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gamer_frek:
Worth it... almost flawless
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] downbringer:
Villian 2.1 was good, not checked out 3.0 though - but this within 10 mins of use, its fast, it feels very stable, I love having the flip clock back, and the theme makes a very nice change from the ordinary theme I've been using for a while.

Definently thinking this may be theme for me, would be interesting when htc release a official 2.1 rom for a new build of sensehero, if the developer chooses to go down that path.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
CPU lowers by 3 whilst everthing else has increased I would say that is worth an upgrade, especially as the small decrease is not as significant as the increase in the other areas.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Groundless:
Great ROM!

Hi Stickman89,

your ROM was great. I think its the best.

But I have a litte problem when i start "root explorer", it comes the SU-Window but i can't select anything, the SU-Window is only a black screen.

Keep up the good work!

Michael
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] stuliv12:
installed perfectly, fast, responsive, the best rom by far. imo :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MrPappy86:
the root explorer working for me.

try to upgrade your root explorer for newer.

try this:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hkkla:
I want to be able to get protected apps. How should my ro.build.fingerprint line in build.prop look like?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Groundless:
It's the newest from market, downloaded 20min. ago.

I have noticed that it is in all programs that need root. The SU Windows is black.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] m1lamb3r:
Try enabling USB-Debugging in application settings.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Hmm my softweg benchmark CPU results show:

Total CPU score;165.04092

That's odd...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Additional speed improvements will come in time as I have more planned for this build for the future, certainly the differences in benchmark scores do not reflect how smooth this build feels.

With the additional transition effects and bouncing menu's not forgetting the eye-candy this build provides I think I can forgive the small differences in benchmark results.

I guess it all depends what you are after in a rom, with this build I focused on getting the best of both with more to come in the future.

I hope that this doesn't put you off as I certainly do not notice any negative performance.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grassiekuik:
Stickman. Good to see another rom from you. This looks like a beauty. I'm going to try this one.

At least i don't have to post the clickable links for you anymore ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
@grassiekuik - hey mate, hope all is well :) yeah I'm all set now, got my link posting privileges now ^^, heh

Hope you like my rom
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Walto:
thank you.. this is.. indeed great work. great, speedy and the most beautiful looking rom. i found ROM i'll use till 2.x are stable enough for me.. and your ROM was first customone where my mobiledata (2g&3g) worked without manually inserting values.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dudeldei:
I have problems with downloading apps from Market when connected to WIFI.

If I cancel the download, disconnect WIFI and start download again, it works fine (with mobile connection instead of course)

Anyone else having problems with this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Roflnova:
Lovely looking ROM! I have a few questions though.

Are there any bugs?

Is there any way to restore boot sounds (if silenced) and cook wavesecure into the ROM like in MCR?

Thank you.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thanito:
+1

Thats the reason i want to try it :)

Since i just came from windows mobile and im new in android flashing, is there any problem if i dont do a nandroid backup?

I would like to, but i havent rooted my hero. This will be my first android flash, although in winmo i became an expert..hahah

wHAT if i just wipe my hero and then flash your rom? Except my contacts i dont need anything else, since i wont install all these apps i have now

Any app to backup my contacts, excluding my google contacts?

Thanx in advance
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grassiekuik:
No root is no flash
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grassiekuik:
Yeah all is well thanks :)

Man this is looking great. I just installed it and now i am installing all desired apps. I think i will try this one for a while.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thanito:
Ok, just like i was doing hardSPL to winmo, i have to root my android

thnx
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
@dudeldei - Just tested I do not seem to be having this issue, have you moved from a 2.1 build by any chance?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Smallguy17:
How fast is this compared to the 3.1 modaco? (:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MrPappy86:
Very, very faster :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Smallguy17:
Well, then I have to try it out (;
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
@Smallguy17 - MCR 3.1 was using the previous Teknologist kernal 1.91 which has now been updated in MCR 3.2 to the Teknologist 1.92 kernal which has had a number of kernel tweaks to improve performance and not to mention the tweaks that Paul has put into his roms himself.

So overall the build has a very quick and snappier feel to it adding to the usabilty and stability of the rom.

Also their is going to be further optimization to come in the future as i continue to work on this build.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] krusts:
Great rom. Just installed it.

One problem i noticed so far is an error installing HTC Battery from market.

Any ideas?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grassiekuik:
Don't install ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
I am working on getting the new HTC widgets back so there will be a small update soon.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] e.japonica:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grassiekuik:
I second that!!! Stickman and the guys who provided the rest of it. It's great.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Groundless:
Thanks, it works!:)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] blaxican21:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Which issue? He had commented on a few issues he was experiencing.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grassiekuik:
Minfree hack is applied. So you don't need to download it
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grassiekuik:
Does anyone know of a way to disable HSDPA and leave 3G on? It will save me a lot off disconnects.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] blaxican21:
yeah he did :D

Autokill issue. Do we need it in this rom?

sweeeet, keep up the great work
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ThaDemon:
wow, just installed this rom. Have been using MCR for a long time and lately tried Vanillain 2.1. But that was quite instable.

I saw this post and wanted to try 1.5 again.

Like I said.. wow..

My Hero has never been that fast before to be honest!

I haven't noticed any bugs (yet) and am setting everything up in my phone.

Really.. this is great!

One thing I would like to know.. Is it possible to install the Dutch language in the rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gamer_frek:
Tried More Locale?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Rui-Cruz:
I tried to find google maps in the market cause I think there might be a newer version, but couldn`t find it. searched every possible way. Anybody have any idea about this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] knudsen81:
the newer version is for android 1.6 +
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ThaDemon:
Just installed More Locale 2. Works as a charm, didn't knew if all roms works with this app, but it does.. Great! Tomorrow the big rom test at school etc..!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Latoc:
If I'm not mistaken the 2.73.405.66 rom is the same as the .61 EXCEPT that it's a release version whereas the .61 is a test version, problably with debug mode on. The release rom should be even faster, with no problems with protected apps in the market. Sheers.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Hmmm i think Mr.Bang is stealing my fixed resources, certainly looks the same, infact it looks like a replica of my SenseHero 1.5 pulled version :mad:

I'm sure it is actually, the lockscreen looks exactly the same, pixel to pixel, same gradients, same transparency on top edge to fix overlapping notification box, same brightness and contrast grrrrrr.

I found him quite rude actually...

Ahhh well, moving on :cool:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MultiMartin:
Thank you for all your hard work on this ROM... it is the best I have used so far on my Hero. I like it so much I've just sent you a donation!

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MultiMartin:
It's my pleasure. I actually don't particularly care about the official Hero Sense 2.1 update anymore - I'm enjoying using your ROM so much.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Guanarteme:
Dude (kevinlow) , see if you have this problem on this rom, then we both have a case with Stickman :-)

Stickman (joking yeah?!), since I last reported you about this, it's functioning well... don't know what's going on. My fingers becomes delicate...

And in another matter: i see that you have zip for removing some htc apps/widgets. Is there a way to keep Footprint? i like it. Or you can recommend on something similar in the market.

Thanks allot!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Cheers whepper :)

Oh don't forget to post your results for the kernel update detailed in the first post along with the download.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Minimad:
Another great release, just installed the kernel update.

Been running since 12.30, not a single problem whatsoever.

I do like the blue theme running through your ROM, gives it that unique feeling.

Best ROM I've tried so far.

Keep up the brilliant work.

looping the boot

I wiped it and installed the SenseHero-1.5_update_signed.zip – Installation went well – but it is still looping the boot. The only way to stop is to remove the battery.

So…?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Did you have app2sd enabled on your previous rom? If so then you may need to wipe your sd card ext partition.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Soaa-:
Your ROM is exceptionally fast! The graphics, in particular, are very smooth. I haven't noticed anything bad about app loading times either.

One thing I don't like so much is how menus bounce a bit. Any way to change those? I love the new window transitions though.

I'm about to try the kernel update. Any specific changes to mention?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Updated kernel to teknologist's 1.92, you will see the results ;)

No problem I will whip up a default menu animation update.zip and post here asap.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] camelush:
:(

NO...app2sd no enabled
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
I added an update.zip to the first post to revert to default menu animation for you and anyone else who prefers it.

[Optional] Default-Menu-Transition_update_signed.zip - Attached in this post below

Removes bouncy menu's animation and reverts to default menu animation effect.

Let me know if it all works ok.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Try the below in the Recovery Menu:

1. Wipe data/factory reset

2. Wipe Dalvik-cache

3. Wipe SD:ext patition

4. Reflash SenseHero 1.5

Report back if you are still experiencing this issue.

Thanks,

Wallpaper

Hi Stickman89!

Can you tell me where i can find the wallpaper "SenseHERO with Carbon bg"?

I do not find it and would like it on the lockscreen.

The Kernel-Update works great.

Your ROM is insane.:eek:

p.s.: a small donation is on the way!;)

This is really nice, seems stable and really fast. With Overclockwidget even faster and hopefully not draining battery as fast.

I like the idea with updates like you did with new kernel, maybe thats the way to go instead of wipe all the time a new rom from same chef being released.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hkkla:
You are very interactive with us users of your ROM, i like that. Perhaps you could look into this?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=639398

Maybe you have a solution for it? Changing volume-buttons function. I would seek you up and warship your toes if you succeded with my request. :D

(no, i´m no stalker) :rolleyes:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] camelush:
1. Wipe data/factory reset - DONE

2. Wipe Dalvik-cache - DONE

3. Wipe SD:ext patition - Done

4. Reflash SenseHero 1.5 - Done

and boot loop again :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kongkkm:
As we say, we love the new window transition and we would like to keep it. The thing that we want to remove is the bouncy menu ( the thing that bounce out when we press the menu button. It is like undergoing damping effect ). Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Soaa-:
Thanks a bunch! So that's where the animations are stored. How do I edit them myself? I tried unzipping and opening the XMLs but they come up as gibberish.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
That has been removed in this optional package, the windows transitions are there but there is no more bouncy menu's.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kongkkm:
It is now a perfect sensehero for me...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Could have been a bad download, try downloading again.

You do have a GSM HTC Hero right?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] camelush:
right HTC Hero GSM ... and download twice....and .... loop again :confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] stuart2008:
Nice job, but is this ROM suitable for G2 32A TIM(New Radio)?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Soaa-:
Sorry, you might have missed my question earlier.

I wanna have a go at editing the animations myself, but when I tried opening the XMLs in framework-res.apk, they all come up as gibberish. How would I go about editing them?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mstulanovic:
No worries man, I had that problem today... downloaded 3 times but every time the file was smaller than the original... when u download the file check that it is 89.7 MB. if its smaller than the browser didn't download it correctly, it may be cause the server was busy giving the file to tens of peoples at once...

I my self had to download it 3,4 time till it was correct and clean download...

Hope this tip was helpful..

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
I wouldn't like to say as I have not been following the sapphire/mytouch 3g development, this Rom has been developed for the HTC Hero GSM, if you now have a modified SPL that allows you flash HTC Hero Rom then i guess so.

Cheers hamo, I will get some download mirrors up when possible.

2 Questions

Hello Stickman98

I downloaded this new SenseHero, flashed my Hero with it, and was testing it for 4 hours...

it looks perfect.. fantastic speed... super... great work... the closest ROM to perfection that I have seen here... :)

I haven't check the WiFi yet, and I think it is not you that I have to ask about WiFi program, last night I have found a lot of forum and people that have the same problem with WiFi like me... but this is not the place for that...

2 questions:

1- What about the boot sounds?! If someone want them back, or it is removed for better performance of the ROM?

2- Green text borders when the phone is in landscape mode and the keyboard pops up, can it be fixed?!

Thanks a lot for your time...

Hamo
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Hey soaa, you have to use eclipse to edit the XML from source code, it it a very long process and requires knowledge of eclipse.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Raptor-21:
I again second this :cool:

Also, I'm on MCR 3.2 atm. And really want to try out your rom as from the sounds of it, it's awesome! And I assume I'll need to wipe, but I don't want to lose all my apps + data, how do I do this? (including apps, data stored in apps, messages, phonebook ect) Basically so I can restore everything as it was after I have wiped & installed sense hero.

Thanks Stickman
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
No problem I can make an optional update.zip to enable boot sounds tommorow, also im working on the text frames still, there giving me a lot of hassle, they are .9.png resources which need to be imported into eclipse and built from source, slow process...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mstulanovic:
Thanks Stickman89

My question was, if I have the boot sounds will the phone lose some of its speed performance... that's all... If not, then I will put them back...

It's late... everyone go to sleep, even you Stickman :)
