Kitchen doesn't work for me atm.

Running windows 7 64bit, script runs but no zip file in output folder.

1.6 is looking great though keep up the work :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Foka002:
I got the same problem - script runs but no zip file (win7 64bit)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Ok cool I will take a look, I am running Windows 7 64-bit aswell :D

Sometime's I keep getting a urge to go back to XP x64, the best operating system for performance and stability for me, even though I game alot too! :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gamer_frek:
Posts work i just posted
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Wouter1:
Same problem but win 7 32 bit!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Have you guys installed the Java JDK as commented in the first post? That will be the only reason the zip file would have failed to be created?

I will make some changes to the script so that it checks that it is installed and reports to you with a link if it is not...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gamer_frek:
I got an error while updating MusicWidget

E: can't chown/mod /data/app

(no such file or directory)

E:failuire at line 4:

set_perm 1000 1000 0771 DATA app

Installation aborted
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] esguk:
I installed 64bit version of sdkshould it have been 32 bit instead ??
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
damn, must be using different Recovery Images, hold on I know what that is...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gamer_frek:
lol that was fast thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Done, re-download from the first post again :D

I will need to do the same to the App-Kitchen as well so I will re-upload that too, however the problem regarding the zip file not creating is because Java JDK is not installed
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gamer_frek:
Yeah noticed that too, worked after installing JDK
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] esguk:
I have just installed jdk-6u18-windows-i586 and still no output from batch file, tried both versions of Java JDK (32 +64 bit) but neither give output,must be a Win 7 odd thing :confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
That is odd, did you reboot after installing?

It shouldn't require one, but its worth a cry :)

#edit: Typo intended!! :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gamer_frek:
It worked for me and i have Win 7 32 bit
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Hmm definitely need too add some content to the website...

Keep you eyes peeled for a decent vbulletin theme, gonna see what I can do.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gamer_frek:
HOW TO's should be a good start, i'll write up some when i get some time.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] esguk:
Just rebooted and .....no output, gonna try laptop to see if it works on there cos its bugging me now :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gamer_frek:
Why not use the adb-script? that works just fine.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Has anyone noticed, no one has themed the new 2.1 leak's yet?

The framework resources are so messy there scattered everywhere and I am the only one digging in deep to get the SenseHERO 2.1 build out asap

Another reason is all the other dev's have pushed it out far to quickly...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gamer_frek:
And thats why your the best:D

Here are some good vbulletin skins(didnt know which version you were using i just presummed 3.8)

Blue Surge

Blue Senseless

right i checked its 4.0

BlueHaze??
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ZigmaDK:
I thought that as well, but right now I have 74MB free. Advanced Task Manger has 0 apps to kill. I am still WAY off the 150MB.

After running the MinFree on the old 1.4 I got a steady 90-93MB free, but 1.6 is much more random.. Haven't seen above 90 on 1.6.

And I only have 20 apps installed or so.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gamer_frek:
Try clearing your browser cache, you can move it to your sdcard by using TAutility
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ZigmaDK:
It doesn't look like its the browser cache. I haven't really used the browser.

After clearing the cache im at 76MB.

How much total memory do you guys have? Maybe that's why? I only have 191MB total memory.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gamer_frek:
iv got about 138 free, but thats cause i havent done a full wipe
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kien:
I had 152mb free on first boot with wipe, now down to 123mb with apps installed and browser cache cleared.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Try this via ADB: (Ensure phone is connected via USB)

Type the following commands into adb

and then type:

you should now see an output similar to this:

This will show the size of all the directories located on the root of your device, this way you can determine what folder contains the most data...

Hope this helps,
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Foka002:
App-Kitchen works after installing Java addon. But still no HTC stock Twitter widget :/
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
You have to type the widget name aswell, so for example you want Htc Stock type:

and then enter "1" for "Add More Applications", now type:

I will change it though to automatically grab its associated widget.

i am having this result :

i have average of 70mb free memory after killing apps using advance task killer..any idea how to improve on the free memory??

thanks in advance
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
My results were taken from stock installation so it looks like you had not wiped prior to installing or you have installed additional applications via the market or alternatively restored a backup via Titanium Backup as your data partition is more then my stock results.

My suggestion would be if you have installed application after SenseHERO 1.6 to use App2sd to store all applications to an SD EXT partition to free system memory.

I you have not installed any apps and the results you posted were after a believed fresh install of SenseHERO 1.6 for some reason your recovery menu is not clearing your Data partition when doing a wipe.

Let me know which one of the above is true, if you have not installed any applications after a believed fresh install I have a solution for you...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kevinlow:
i did a wipe on data, Dalvik-cache & SD external partition before flashing 1.6..i even format my sd card.i don hany any app2sd..but i do restore my apps from Mybackup Pro..i have about 30apps installed.

many thanks in advance
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mstulanovic:
Hi everyone...

I have a small problem... I saw screenshots about this ROM, but can't make my phone do this rotating screen like on these pictures:

http://img687.imageshack.us/i/snapshot5v.png/

http://img684.imageshack.us/i/snapshot4m.png/

Is this just a picture, or it has a capability to do this?!

and other thing, my program menu bottom is not transparent like on this picture:

http://img26.imageshack.us/i/snapshot2ox.png/

Any tips for this?!!

Hamo
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] izkon:
that screenshots i think is for the sense2.1..you could try the leak eris roms to get the hero to do that
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mstulanovic:
o, is that so... thanks man, I have that forgotten...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] izkon:
forgot to mention this..stickman..the new htc widgets dont seem to work on my hero..unsuccessful installation from the market(incompatible update)...and not installed if using the kitchen..it is not that important for me..but just wondering if its a common problem or just on my hero..thanx in advance for this great Rom btw..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gamer_frek:
Just use the adb-script is flawless.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
This is occurring if you have come from a previous SenseHero without a wipe..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Villarous:
It seems to drain battery more than the 1.4 build, back when you used MCR 3.2b. Im not sure thats the reason, but the battery at least seems to drain faster.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jeryco:
It's really smooth & faaast! Much appreciate for your work.

I just have a question whether a CPU adjusting APK needed or not?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] izkon:
ahh ic..came from 1.5 to 1.6 without wipe..thanx for the info..any news for your 2.1senseHero :p
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mstulanovic:

Gps problem

anyone else having problems with gps?

i have turned on gps, but when i start google maps the gps icon will not appear and it will not give me a fix, the same goes for copilot live.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kien:
I had that problem when I did a nandroid restore, I had to do the restore a second time to get GPS back on.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jbr7rr:
hmm i tried to flash the rom again whitout a whipe no succes though.

will try another rom to see if it works to exclude a hardware problem then flash again with a full wipe
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grassiekuik:
That I think personally it isn't appropriate to advertise your topic here

my 2cts
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] snaven:
try reflashing the radio... i had to do that to get gos working in copilot, maps etc
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mstulanovic:
sorry man, I wasn't advertising anything, I have that problem, and seems that no one has a solution...

If u see it in that way, can I delete the post in any way so you don't get annoyed buy that...

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
OK guys I have created a new application builder/installer, frustrating making this bugger as I have now binded the two previous scripts together in one tool.

12/03/2010

Additional Application Installer & Builder *UPDATED*

Install additional application to SenseHERO 1.6 with the script below:

Application-Installer&Builder.zip - Download (TO USE PACKAGE BUILDER AN INSTALL OF JAVA JDK IS REQUIRED , GRAB IT HERE http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/widget/jdk6.jsp)

If you are having problems with the package builder not creating the zip ensure you have installed the Java JDK as stated above, if it is still failing also install the Java JRE from here: https://cds.sun.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/WFS/CDS-CDS_Developer-Site/en_US/-/USD/ViewProductDetail-Start?ProductRef=jre-6u18-oth-JPR@CDS-CDS_Developer

I hope it all works for you,
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mstulanovic:
I have deleted the post, check it out...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Foka002:
i had same problem. I couldn't get gps working on any 1.5 ROM. Reflashing Radio solved the problem
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gamer_frek:
Your hard work is much appreciated :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] snaven:
brilliant!

worked first time - thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ZigmaDK:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
compare your above results to my below stock results:

The below are the two directories that we are interested in, we can ignore all the other directories:

These will be the largest directories and where all your applications/data will be held, if we compare the results we can instantly see both of these directories are larger then the stock results.

This means that either a wipe was not performed prior installing SenseHERO 1.6, you have restored a backup using Titanium Backup or lastly you have installed additional applications via my application script or the market...

Again I would suggest a full wipe and then reinstall SenseHERO 1.6, this will create a new data partition and will contain the standard SenseHERO 1.6 system applications.

Once this has been done I would suggest enabling App2Sd to store app's and data to a ext partition on your sd card...

Hope this helps,
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kendong2:
are you aware that you are throwing flash memory and RAM together?

the output you pasted gives information about the free internal flash storage, in the sentence below you are talking about RAM memory...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] karma0321:
hi!

is it possible to use the builder on linux? and if not, what if i just push the apps i want to the apps directory? might i face signature problems or else?

i'm still using sensehero 1.4 and i really want to try 1.6 but i want to keep most of the removed apps! :D

EDIT:

ok... sorry! :D i took a look at the script and found my answer.. :D i'm going to try a wipe-less upgrade and then i'll push my apps.. :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Woops yup that's right, dunno how I missed that.

Cheers kendong2, my brain is on overload :eek:

- How add twitter and twitter widget ?

- Map 3.2 and 4.0 not working in this ROM ? (i have map.apk 3.21 and 4.0 but

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] juansuandi:
we have the same issues. i add twitter by twitterdroid pro. but i can't install 4.0 maps. as its have buzz.

is any other way to install the 4.0 maps?

as far as i try, i love this ROM. great job
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] juansuandi:
mine to.. i cant see that the GPS work. i flash the Radio to the latest but its couldn't get the gps working. should i reflash my radio? i've tried that my gps work well on every 2.1 Rom.

any help?? :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Marcehh:
Lockscreen

Any chance of a different lock screen? This ROM is awesome but the stock HTC lockscreen is super ugly!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] juansuandi:
use lockboot, there is link on page 97 or 98. please look back. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ZigmaDK:
Do you have an idea why I get the "No such file or directory"?

I will try and wipe everything again. And this time also the Battery and Rotation settings.

How do I go about checking the /data and /system directories?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Thanks for this ridiculously awesome custom mod.

My hero performs exactly as i want now.

And its not bloated with bloatware like other custom mods! :D

I have but a question or 2.

Is it possible to add other languages to my htc hero.

I want to install a font for non western alphabets.

Can it be done?

Is it possible to uninstall apps such as the regular browser that comes with HTC? if it isn't needed anymore, can i remove it? Or is that a bad idea?

Also. I'm using the Opera mini beta 5 browser. Does anyone know how to install flash support in it? I can't seem to watch youtube videos with it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] skhbbss:
could somebody make a update.zip for the additional apps? i can't open the script on mac os
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] snaven:
if you've definitely reflashed the radio after installing this rom - then I'd suggest just loading up google maps or your sat nav application with gps activated and then waiting 15 minutes or so.... it took a while for mine too work first time - but it's been fine since.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jbr7rr:
A full wipe and reflash worked for me ( I tried villian 3.3 before )

I haven't flashed the radio in a while though.

SenseHERO works like a charm here now :) thx stickman
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grassiekuik:
what apps?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Hey guys,

Added a new optional update to the first post :D

13/03/2010

2.1_animations_update_signed.zip *OPTIONAL ADDON*

This optional update adds the 2.1 animations from the Htc Legend dump, if you don't like them simply roll back using this: rollback_animations_update_signed.zip

Have fun,
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MrPappy86:
Nice :)

I try it :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grassiekuik:
downloading now. Did you got the time to take a look at that other rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Yes but as the framework resources are different from the 1.5 build things are moving slower then expected :(...

I am working hard on it still though, I only really get evening to work on it, shouldn't really be on here now...

My daughter is poorly at the moment :( and my fiance gets annoyed at me if I am on the computer during the day whilst she is awake...

Which is understandable because its hard to get me off it when I am on it hehe :D

but shhhhh! ok, she has gone out shopping atm haha ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MrPappy86:
this update what do?

i dont see any changes
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grassiekuik:
Lol. I noticed the whole setup is different than the 1.5. Everything is placed elsewhere. Maybe it's just the cook who did that but i can't make sh8t out of it :P That's probably me as well coz i don't understand a lot of this all. I recognize a lot of myself in your home situation :P LOL
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Have you got animations enabled in Settings > Sound & Display > Animations (tick option)

It will add the left to right windows transitions and so on....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Wouter1:
I just flashed 2.1 animations, it goes left to right instead of fading in and out now? Usually I never have animations on but this looks pretty sweet.

Thanks stickman :)

GPS issue

Hello there Stickman89

GPS doesn't work in most of applications, like google maps and some others... but does get a fix with GPS Status from Market... but not all the information that it was giving me before (like coordinates, that means it can't fix my place on this earth, something is not in its place) ... it shows only the compas right, but no other stuff ...

I can see that a lot of people here have the same issue... I just wanted tell u that this problem is real :D

Thanks for your time.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kevinlow:
i have the gps issue after a wipe from 1.5 now flash to 1.6 earlier on. . . but after i update the latest radio 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26. gps seems to be working now.. apps including google maps and ndrive are working perfectly..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Cheers kevinlow, I'm sure this was confirmed to resolve this before, ahh well can we get some confirmation for the suggested fix above, if it resolves the issue I will add it to the first post, if not then I have an idea what is causing this...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MrPappy86:
In my device with SenseHero 1.6 and 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26 radio my gps working fine.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] skhbbss:
Quick office, pdf reader, those removed apps, I can't open the java script
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MultiMartin:
Is there any way I can remove the Zegoe fonts? I really don't like them and have reverted back to Sense Hero 1.5. Is this possible?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] karma0321:
i upgraded from 1.4 to 1.6 with no wipe, everything works perfectly!! i love this rom and i love the new font too :D i had the gps issue and solved with a radio re-flash.

the only problem i have now is that, even if i pushed htc twitter and battery widget, i cannot find them either in apps list or widgets list. is that possible to solve it or i'd just better look for alternatives? :D

thank you, thank you, thank you! :D:D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kongkkm:
I want the twitter widget back after flashing to SenseHero 1.6...I don't know how to use the Application Installer & Builder after installed Java JDK bla bla bla...no guides are provided too. So i think creating a zip file is better.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thanito:
i have a strange issue with people widget..

although in my favorite people i have assigned photos, in people widget no photo is shown

any tips??
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mstulanovic:
Hello there Stickman...

I have the latest radio, but in Google maps my GPS doesn't have a fix of my position...

I will update the radio again when I come home, and I will send the feedback...

really hope that fix my problem..

Hamo
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] juansuandi:
should i reflash? :(

before i flash this rom, i do wipe data, dalvik and ext partition. why should reflash? do you mean reflash the radio?

any help please? i ve try to on GPS and still nothing.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mstulanovic:
WiFi

I had a problem with my WiFi from the day I bought my Hero, but 2 days ago, I think there is a solution, not so sure, but so far it is working normally...

Before I connect on the WiFi I have to turn off Mobile network connection and than connect.. but there is some things... sometimes when I try do download a program from Market if its on WiFi it stuck on Starting Download and never downloads the program unless I restart the phone... when I restart it, the download from market starts immediately... Strange... any clues... ????

Hamo
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vincent0923:
what a fast and stable ROM! Been using it for a few days and I can conclude it's faster and more stable than the MCR3.2b, without too much HTC bloats!

I wonder if you could implement some sort of method to change color of the theme, it's currently blue and cool, but wouldn't it be nice if we can change it to red, orange, greem, white etc (perhaps by some update zips)?

And if the PDFViewer can be included it would be great, as I dont seem to be able to find a better pdf viewer than the stock htc one
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vincent0923:
if the photos are from the contacts' facebook accounts, then u may have to wait a while until the phone finishes the sync, it can take a day
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grassiekuik:
I think reading is more easy.... Use ADB and push the file
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thanito:
I dont think thats the case though, since, when i go to my favorites in people application, all the fav contacts have the photos, but photos dont show in widget, strange.

I tried both widgets too, the small and the big one, tried removing them and adding them again, reassigning photos, but it made no difference at all
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Sawkes:
Awesome ROM ! :)

Been using it for some days now, and found no problems so far.

Keep up the good work!
