exit , hi u have done a gr8 job

i really loved ur roms

but yesterday without any reason it got so mach laggy,

rebooted to no avail.

so have to give up to mcr 3.2
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
Really weird, try reflashing it
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] phaelox:
You didn't happen to install jkAppSwitch, did you? Ever since the dev added the feature of showing resident apps the darn thing slows EVERYTHING on your device down to a crawl, until you either exit the app or remove the tick "remain in notification bar".
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dryspuri:
no,

i installed i think 8 apps max to max. not more that that.

all standard ones.

Update

@Exit Just wondering if there is any update on the 2.1 rom you said u were making, ur roms are the best and i carnt wait to try a 2.1 version out :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Hi back on your rom yet again after trying yet another 2.1 custom rom that was to unreliable for me.

Will stick with yours now until 2.1 is released properly and we get some proper reliable roms will be watching for yours if or when you do one mate?

Keep up the good work

Cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bratfink:
Kernel

I was just wondering wether the kernel in this rom allows the user to alter the cpu speeds etc as i have heard many kernels override this functionality. thanks :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
Not for now, it uses teknologist's 1.92

@All_those_who_want_2.1:

Android's coding it's not so easy, i'm only 17 and im busy with school too, so you have to wait
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] phrozen_lad:
been using the "fast" 2.1 roms and given up due to the clunkiness/stability probs..installed this and its soooo much smoother! will stick to 1.5 i think, maybe 2.1 demands too much from the hero?? (hence the slow update from htc?)

phrozen
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lesong_:
100% agree ..

i've been trying almost all the ROM's and just found out that 1.5 is much much faster and smoother for hero than 2.1 ..

and special thanks to our young man Exit93 for the great job that he had done with this ROM .. and personally would love to see his ROM is # 1 because trully and honestly it's one of the best ROMs in fact if it's not the best already ;) ..

Here Here i cant see what all the fuss about 2.1 is really as all the 2.1 ones ive tryed (all of em) dont do anything that ive noticed any better or faster etc so i say stick with this rom if you want a fast reliable rom you can use daily with no problems at all.

New Version Coming soon

New update coming soon

Temporary new features list

- Maxisma's custom kernel with overclock support (up to 710mhz clock)

- (Probably) HTC legend's sense graphics

If i find time i'll realease it on sunday, else on monday/tuesday
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] L0cke:
I must say I've been on 2.1 ROMs since I pretty much first rooted my Hero, and I thought I'd never go back to a 1.5 version, but I am so glad that I did!! There are no bugs, everything works and fast too.

This is the best ROM I have used :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ronique96:
Would really love to see an espresso theme.. or any theme for this ROM.. theres not a single one.. lol this may make me revert to villain
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] phaelox:
YES! Thank you, that's terrific! Now I can finally underclock AND have Sense.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Sergio PC:
Oooo man please! Your amazing ROMS keep my Hero running.

Thank you very much Chef:cool:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Was going to download yet another 2.1 rom but after seeing your about to release an update am now waiting on this one mate..

Although to be honest i dont see how you can improve on this rom at all i am very happy with everything about it and theres a saying i stick by which is....... if it aint broke dont fix it :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] furrypotato:
True, but the overclock to make it run at 700Mhz will make it the fastest Hero ROM on the planet.

Oh, and he announced on twitter about 30 minutes ago that he is uploading 1.6 now so it looks like we'll be in luck and get plenty of time today to test it.

After the last 4-5 months of using buggy 2.1 ROM's, this might get me back to 1.5 , where everything just works, and works fast too.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Is there any chance to get multiple language support without morelocale?

I've tried your rom. It's quite fast. I'm just missing some danish in there :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
Danish language works with morelocale

Just released Kimera 1.6
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] trashed78:
Saw on first post 1.6 was released.. is the wlan.ko fix for overclock included?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Davith:
Would the battery life be affected by the new overclocked kernel? I thought your ROM was already very fast, so I'm not sure it would be worth it if it reduced battery life.

Still, great job.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
Of course yes

Maybe, i don't know, i'm testing rom since today
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] trashed78:
downloading :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Downloading now if its better than or as good as 1.5 i will be a very happy man.

Cheers mate
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Wiped everything first to be safe and flashed the kimera 1.6 but seems to be stuck on hero screen for 10mins + just trying it again???
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
try reflashing, wipe ext partition too
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Will do i already wiped the 3 to be safe then flashed will keep you posted.

Cheers mate
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] trashed78:
Worked for me...

Nice rom and fixed swedish with morelocale :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
2nd time lucky got to the android animation now up to htc bit so looking good

Got stuck in a reset loop this time try number 3
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] knudsen81:
do JIT work on the rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] trashed78:
Is it possible to delete stock and footprints apk + odex with rootexplorer never use them and just want them to go away :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] trashed78:
JIT never works with Sense and on 1.5 i think

Re: [ROM][CUPCAKE 1.5][25/04/2010] Kimera 1.6 - Feat. Overclock, Extremely fast!

in villain 5.3 as a donator you van have Sense with JIT
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] trashed78:
Yes but not on 1.5 roms :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] knudsen81:
okay thanks but can someone tell me what apps2sd 2.5
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] furrypotato:
But don't forget that this ROM has your phone overclocked anyway.

Installed and ran linpack after areboot and getting 3.1+ MFLOPS
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
Really weird, which recovery do you have?

How did you partition your microsd?

Yes, you can

What do you mean? Apps2sd allows you to install apps on sdcard, if you have an ext partition it's fully automatic
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Recovery 1.6.2 .think ive got card as 128 or 256 swap and 512 for apps and rest as standard not had any problems with your other roms and all the 2.1 roms ive tryed but im struggling getting this one going might try to download it again just in case its a dodgy zip
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] inoam:
quick question:

Can I run the phone at less then 710mhz? It's seem's like really pushing it and I worry that it will brick the phone one day.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
You have to ask to maxisma, kernel's creator

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6278288&postcount=1

Anyway i think it underclocks uautomatically when cpu it's not needed
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] knudsen81:
What do you mean? Apps2sd allows you to install apps on sdcard, if you have an ext partition it's fully automatic[/QUOTE]

Yes but on vanillaEclair 1.2.1 i have what in settings with sd card

secundare sd

it shows 570 mb

and then my intern mem
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
if you mean that you could choose where to install app between internal memory and sd that's an apps2sd version that works only on android 2.x
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] knudsen81:
okay thanks for the replay
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Am i the only one who can't install this?

it hangs at the HTC boot screen after flashing..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Nope me to mate just downloading again and gonna re partition my sd card, everyone else seems to be getting it working but us???
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] knudsen81:
works fine here, hope you will get it to work
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Formaterede du hele dit SD kort før du flashede knudsen?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] knudsen81:
nej wiped, bare de første 3 muligheder og så flash jeg bare rommen
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Spøjst.. Har gjort det samme uden resultat.

Har lige gendownloadet kimera 1.6 - Prøver igen :p
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Wierd.. Won't install no matter what i do.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
Explain your problem, boot loop?

Error while flashing?

Stuck on bootscreen?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ilbulgaro89:
but the 700mhz overclock could create any problems in the long period?

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
It flashes errorless. But when i reboot, it just hangs at the htc boot screen.

Nothing really happens. Its either a boot loop or just freeze. I've encountered both.

I've wiped data + dalvik + ext with no positive results.

Even formatted entire sd card. Still no luck.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
It's only a 200mhz overclock, in the today using i never saw an overheating so it shouldn't cause damage
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
Can you send me an adb logcat log?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Right my last attempt at this copied my sd card contents to pc, repartitioned sd card to 128 512 and remainder of my 8 gig as normal wiped top 3 flashing now fingers crossed
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
I'm not sure i know how to do that.

I've got Amon Ra's latest recovery. Is it from in there?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Yes thats what im using got to htc screen and choose language.............. i think its a worker yes it working whooohooo
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
What did you do different?

I'm still getting boot loops XD
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Spoke to soon phone locked up now im stuck in a boot loop again at hero screen i give up off back to my nandroid backup of 1.5 kimera
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
That sucks buddy..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] phaelox:
Thanks a million for this update Exit93, awesome! Can't wait till tonight when I get a chance to try it.

And cheers for the special thanks! ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
I really can't understand these problems, i got it working at first try, same for freidns of mine

Anyway, tell me which sd are you using and how partitioned and send me a logcat log (to get it start ddms from android's sdk)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] AXIS of Reality:
Loved 1.5 so updating now.

Just wondering if you fixed the small issue of the alarm not working when using the flipclock (optional animated one).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] No1VIPER:
Great work. Im pretty new to the ROM seen, but with the on going delays with the official update I thought Id give it a go.

After trying a few 2.1 ROMS and finding them all to buggy I tried the latest Modaco ROM and had been using that for the past couple of days and was impressed, but decided to try this, and from my inital impressions this seems alot quicker!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Ok, got ddms.bat running.

But when trying to get a logcat. I get this error when selecting it

/sbin/sh: logcat: not found

Know what that means?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] furrypotato:
After a few hours using it , I'm finding that I am getting either random reboots or it freezes and I have to take battery out to restart.

No consistent pattern as to what is causing it. When I get a chance I'l keep it hooked up to laptop and logcat it.

Or I'll backup my card contents and reformat the SD card. After months of using various 2.1 ROM's you never know what might have crept it (I had to do this before to get a 2.1 ROM to work)

EDIT: Getting a lot of restarts around installs. Here's one trying to install Sype that makes phone reboot.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] knudsen81:
i have not got any reboots or bugs on this rom

edit... gmail push is not working
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
Where is it written?

This is ddms's logcat
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
This is my logcat...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
Ah, not good, debug drivers are not loaded on phone

So which sd are you using and how partitioned?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Sorry mate ive copied all contents from my pc back to the sd card now and restored my nandroid backup of your 1.5 kimera so cant help you with the logcat but i will keep an eye on this thread and see if anyone else has the same problems as i had and mange to sort it out.

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Ah crap :x

...

I'm using a 2gb Sandisk MicroSD card. Currently not partitioned, just a big 2gb FAT32 filesystem.

EDIT: How would i install a debug driver thing to my phone. I could always install another rom and then install the driver thing, and then reinstall kimera 1.6 and make a logcat. If thats how it works
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
Debug driver are on phone and working only not loaded at that part of boot

Try flashing attached zip then flashing rom

Consider that attached zip will format system partition too
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fallos:
how the battery usage ? cpu allways at 710mhz ? and where can i get standart apn list .. Cyanogen's APN List don't have Estonian prividers =(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
No dice even with the fullwipe.zip

Still hangs or bootloops at the hero bootscreen
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] No1VIPER:
This is something Im also interested to know. Is the CPU set lower during the screen being off, and also does it only use the full 710mhz during CPU intensive apps?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Yes i gave it a go doing this and still looping at hero screen
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] furrypotato:
Decided to re-partition my SD card.

What settings have you got on your that are stable - ie Swap size, ext size (ext 2 or 3)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Tryed that to mate 128 swap 512 ext and rest of my 8gig as standard
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] TZC-T1-FX:
32 FPS in Neocore... Amazing!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
I have 32mb swap partition, 512mb ext2 and the rest is fat32

4gb sandisk sdcard class 4
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] furrypotato:
Ok thanks, just partitioning now ( 8Gb Class 2 Sandisk, must replace with faster soon)

Will report back on stability later.

Oh, and thanks for all your work.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] No1VIPER:
I dont know whether this is of any use to people having problems, but I have this working perfectly using my 8GB Class 4 Sandisk Micro SD without any partition and using the following radio 63.18.55.06JU 6.35.09.26.

When I first loaded the ROM it did take a while to boot, so just leave it for a bit longer and see if it works before giving up. I know Im a newbie, but it worked for me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lesong_:
just instaled it and works great so far .. thanksssss Exit93

How is it possible to Overcock to 710 MHZ??

I thou d this was Not possible Yet !??

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fstluxe:
Overclock ? to 710 MHZ Read THIS!

How is it possible to Overcock to 710 MHZ??

I thou d this was Not possible Yet !??

Read this

So the Question = this the BogoMIPS overclock ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] noobstix:
Well I just flashed to this rom and can safely say that there is a clear difference. no placebo affect here, the keyboard never lags, the pull up app menu is much, much quicker and navigating through the homescreen is far better. I dont even mind the lack of 2.1 because this is so good :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fstluxe:
528 MHZ

I've test it to, But I Can't go higher then 528 MHZ custom MHZ with setCPU. and my Neocore score with out sound = max 24.4 FPS while the original Netherlands rom scores 29.9 FPS

Is this normal ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] scouzer:
interesting post fstluxe, would like to know the answer too.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
No, this is not the BogoMIPS overclock, in fact without this overclock enabled kernel on linpack you get around 2.39 mflops

With the kernel you get around 3.0, and also you feel rom faster

So performance are better, try to believe

Yes, it is

Can't understand the real problem, try running rom without ext partition on sd

So try to:

1. Partition sdcard only in ext2

2. Wiping all

3. Flashing and running rom

then let me know the result
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Danltn:
I didn't flash the most recent update but I flashed the previous version (before the overclocking) and manually flashed the overclocked kernel + wlan.ko.

I'm getting Linpacks of over 3MFLOPs with it now. (most recent run averaging about 3.0 to 3.1)

Definitely faster.

Note below: SetCPU and OverclockWidget will not allow you to change the CPU frequency to the higher values. Just leave it as is and don't use any overclocking tools. It's done by the kernel.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] furrypotato:
I've already tried ext2 and ext3, followed by a wipe and then flashing. Something goes wrong early on, as normally it freezes on the 'Hero' screen before it ever gets to 'HTC' on first boot, and only works after pulling the battery and rebooting.

Ill give it one more try with no ext partition to see if that solves it. Been playing trying to get it to work for over 7 hours so will have to give up soon and revert to stable ROM ( at least until my next day off tuesday !!)

I'll let you know either way. I thin there was more info earlier on the logcat of some sort of possible crash too, so that might help if it carries on like this.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
Sorry i miswrote, i meant partition only in fat32
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fstluxe:
Really thanks for the answer !,but it still some confusing is the phone running 710 MHZ ? it feels smooth but if I benchmark it with setcpu I get the Same score as the orginal rom arond the 14000MS so I'm Really curious about the way how this is done.

I hope someone can explain this kernel thing.

THanks,
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] furrypotato:
I assumed that's what you meant no problem. Partitioning and reformatting as I type.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
I had exactly the same results as you mate tryed every which way i could think of but had boot loops on hero screen mainly...

Every other rom i have tryed i have managed to get going and i have tryed EVERY 2.1 rom so far and never had this problem with any of emm.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] furrypotato:
Tried without an ext partition and no luck. Even redownloaded and flashed Radio and ROM for one last try. Time for bed soon so I'll have to give up for now.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Hmm, still no solution? :s
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Ive given up and gone back to 1.5 for now but will keep watching here just incase someone finds the solution
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Yea, i jumped back to SenseHero 1.6 as well.

I really wanna try that overclocked kernel though..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Cant get my head round why rest of people get it going ok and we are struggling with it i could understand it if it were the first rom ive ever tried using but i must of flashed my phone 100 times now and never had this before
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] madduckuk:
seems to be working fine for me, apart from the only clock available seems to be "analogue clock" with nothing else showing :( i have installed the flipclock thing.. am i blind? have they moved somewhere else?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Yea it is quite peculiar.. First time a rom won't install without me having tinkered with it at all..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gascanieto:
I had same issue. I flashed radio and then tried the rom, and it worked. Hope it helps
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Gonna try this now ive tryed everything else cheers mate
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Same haha.

Just re-updated my latest radio to same radio.

Flashing kimera now. Let's hope for a better outcome.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
Ok, let me know, if that works we finally found a solution
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Well its flashed i seem to be stuck on hero screen but gonna leave it a while
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Its flashed, but stuck at bootscreen for 10mins now.

I'm guessing it failed.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Yes same here mate gonna have to take battery out and see but i think its failed here to.

Thank god for nandroid backup :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
Did you flash rom again after flashing radio?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
yes flashed rom after flashing new radio even though i was on recomended radio anyway took battery out and powered up again stuck at hero screen.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Well yea.

Flashed the radio. Which flashed just fine, then flashed Kimera 1.6.

Flashes fine with no errors. But when i reset phone and boot up to system. It hangs at the htc hero boot screen.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gascanieto:
i always flash rom and immediately afterward flash radio. then boot for the first time for the new rom. I always had issues with GPS, till I started doing this.

Other idea would be to download the file again...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Same here looks like its just me and you that cant get it going and everyone else can???
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Maybe we have a special phone type :p

Let's see if apps2sd is the real problem, i made a remover (Attached)

Do this test:

1. Wipe all

2. Flash Kimera 1.6 (DON'T REBOOT AFTER FLASHING)

3. Flash apps2sd remover (Attached)

4. Reboot

Let me know =)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Gonna test it and report back
