Hey raptor and welcome to the SenseHero thread, modaco 3.2 should have titanium backup preinstalled on it, launch this application and perform a backup before flashing to ensure you do not loose anything, if the application is not in your application launcher simply download it from the market.

Titanium backup comes preinstalled into my builds so you can restore your data once flashed.

Hope this helps, also FYI we have had a number of members reporting that a wipe was not required moving from mcr3.2, if you experience duplicate icons or unstabilty without a wipe, then I suggest wiping and reflashing.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Nice find soaa, I will have a read through, I went the long way around then :) ahh well.

Thanks again.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Raptor-21:
Ah ok, thank you for your quick reply! It's backed up to the sd card right?

Can't wait to try out your rom. Will get back to you when I install it =]
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Nope this will not affect performance, yeah gonna have a nap I think, good night everyone, will chat tomorrow.

ST1Cl<^^aN is out
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] prommindh:
Flashed over senseHero 1.4 last night with no wipe, so far so good it's working excellently well (very fast & very responsive) and everything stay intact.

Again big applause to your excellent works. Thank you!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
sorry I haven't actually used the titanium backup yet, I flash my phone so much developing I rarely use it as a phone lol.

There has been a report here that it works fine, I presume it loads to sdcard.

Don't forget to flash the kernel update on first post for even more speed :D.

Ok I gotta sleep now I'm very tired, night all.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] stuart2008:
Thank you!

I see, By the way, is your ROM based on firmware 1.5 of 2.1?

And is Chinese language supported?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] doormenv:
Stickman ,

Is this 1.5 version is based on modaco 2.9 rom ? Is I not mistaken , previous version 1.4 is based on modaco 3.2b5 version .Correct me if I'm wrong .
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tempo10:
Bug report On 1.5

The ramswap.sh doesn't apply on boot, no cpu and memory tweak has been applied on boot.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] leon912:
where is the kernel update pakage?:confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] leon912:
(1)this rom si based on 1.5.

(2)you could download and install "more local" form market,then choose chinese by using this software.

HTC Widgets

I just did a wipe and flashed 1.5 re-release. As everyone said already it's very fast - great work StickMan, my favorite ROM by far. However, I tried to install the HTC Widgets from the Market and they failed for me. Has anyone else tried and gotten them to work ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Teeth=]:
i can't either. but i had a backup of the first 1.5 that was pulled (with htc widgets installed) so i restored it and flashed the new 1.5 over it without wiping and its there. hope that helps
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dabrown:
Thanks gonna try that now.:)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dabrown:
HTC Widgets

Thanks Teeth=], it worked. I did a Nandroid restore to the original 1.5, then flashed the 1.5 re-release and the HTC widgets worked. Gonna test this ROM out :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Teeth=]:
no problem =]
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hermann1514:
Hi,

yesterday, after i wipe my HERO and install senseHero1.5 i can't upload some file to my sdcard from usb. A wipe from the SD CARD dosen't solve the Problem.

Now i have repartioned my SDCArd with other Size.

ext3. from 512 -> 768

swap -> 128

Now all works fine.

Another question: Do i need the SWAP Partition?

Regards

Hermann
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grassiekuik:
You can find chinese supported keyboard in this topic. There is a great search button on top of this topic ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Liavk1:
when i get loops i just backup everything and i re partition my SD to fat32+swap+ext2 and than i convert ext2 to ext3 and than i do a factory rest...

it works everytime
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] M3 SMGII:
I can't flash the zip file.

It says that it can't open it.

In the zip file there is only 1 map: META and no other maps. Other roms that I tried are with 4-5 maps.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Liavk1:
i think you had a glitch while downloading...

try again
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
I think I know why that might be, I'm looking into in and I will report back here.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hermann1514:
Hi,

i think i have found my Problem with the SDcard.

After flashing i installes the Widgedt Dual SDMount 1.65

This is not working right with this rom for me.

Does anybody have the same Problem?

Hermann
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
I will post an optional update.zip to fix the HTC widgets asap.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Picarden:
Wow great rom! :) Fast, stable... and liiiicious! Thank you! No problems what so ever. I even took a step back from 2.1 to 1.5... and i´m still happy!!

Thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] reeja:
Hi everybody,

indeed a nice slick and fast ROM based on Modaco's great work.

However I have two problems - maybe somebody knows how to resolve:

1. application TurnAround does not work correctly. It mutes the sound if the phone is turned around and switches back to last settings if the phone is turned up again. On Sense1.5 the application dies shortly after the phone has been turned face down and sounds are on again. The app works flawlessly on MCR3.2b5. I have also tried Sense1.5 w/ kernel 1.92...

2. cannot install stock android calendar app. I am not allowed to replace HTCcalendar with calendar. I can do this on MCR3.2b5. Also tried with both kernel versions on Sense1.5.

I really would like use Sense1.5 - it has a greatly polished look'n feel!

Regards,

reeja.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Duke_Bones:
Thank for this ROM. My first thought was 'God Damit is this FAST!!'.

It's fast, Stable and everything works.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Guanarteme:
Hi stickman

Still with the problematic touch functioning thingi... (sorry to come at you again with this, but i would really like to stick with you)

So I was thinking maybe i should format the sd card (i did all the wipes already) and then re-flash your rom. Any recommendation for a proper procedure with this one? Does formatting deletes the partitions? actually how do i know if i have a partition ? ;-)

Oh well...

Thanks.

New benchmark

SenseHero 1.5 with Kernel-update_signed.zip.

Softweg benchmark:

- Graphic: 116

- CPU: 152

- Memory: 150

- Filesystem: 38

Linpack benchmark:

- 2.47 Mflops/s
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Hmmm my benchmarks hit 167 for CPU after I have opened a few applications, I think it may be down to the CPU scaling script not initializing. I will report back when possible, should be a fix for it later when i get some time.

The script not initializing isn't a major issue but should further smoothen out this build when i upload a fix, also be a bit more snappier.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kikius:
is it normal?

i flashed my magic with your ROM, i like it very much, but Wi fi didn`t work , so the camera...is it normal?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sphinxy:
You know this rom is for the HERO right?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Raptor-21:
Just flashed. Clean install + wipe and also updated kernal; titanium back up worked a treat but I'm experiencing quite a bit of lag, more so than mcr3.2b5. It probably something I have done wrong, but any thoughts on how to fix?

On a side not, not sure how it's done, but is it possible to restore default theme? If not doesn't matter, I'll get used to it. Other than that top job! Will be staying with this rom for a while as your community support is great!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
I think the magic now have a patched hero spl working for them, this allows them to flash Hero Roms, i'm not convinced that the hardware is like for like so its possible my rom doesn't have the drivers compiled in for the Magic's wifi.

Then again i have no idea, I have not been following the Magic's development.

Is there any reports of this issue elsewhere in the Magic's forum section?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mstulanovic:
Its easy to partition your SD card with Linux, Ubuntu... I don't know how to make it on Windows... but on Linux, Ubuntu it is very easy, you can make all kinds of partitions ... :)

If u are using Linux, you will have a program called Geparted, if u don't have it just write in the terminal: sudo apt-get install geparted

or try the download and install button ;)

In windows you can format the fat32 partition but the linuxSwap and Ext partition I am not sure. If u format your SD with your Hero u will lose all partitions and the SD card will be one hole fat32 partition

hope this helps...

So, in all awesomeness, it seems the Eris ROM dump seems to be working on the Hero! Got an ETA for the 2.1 version of SenseHero? :D

Can you make the rom bit slower? i cant keep up ;)

download the cime package and flash it, i got it working on this rom
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Guanarteme:
Thanks Hamo!

Well now you bring my memory back. I have windows... on a mac. :-) I remember that i first formatted to fat32 the card, then i cam across a guide that showed me how to partition threw that recovery. so i never used the computer to partition, and i am not shore what it did finally. anyways, any recommendation for the mac? :-)

Viva la vida (and Stickman) (and Hamo, and everybody...)

Cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mstulanovic:
Well, I have used Mac, but that was back in 1994, and that Mac had 4GB of its memory ONLY :) and no any partition programs... that time, if u wanted to partition your HDD u had to do it in terminal, and u know that Mac is no OPEN SOURCE...

I think that the modern Mac is similar to Linux, or the other way around, so there must be some partitioning programs, there must be... if not, then try the Mac Software Centre, and in search just put the PARTITION word and it will find some of the free softwares...

or try to find some forums that have the partitioning of an SD card step by step... but I think is very easy...

ooo, u sad that u use Windows on your Mac... Try to find Partition Magic, download it and install, and check if that program have linux swap and ext partition formats... I don't remember, because back than when I was using windows I used that Partition Magic only for Fat32 and NTFS formating...

If anything else u need I will be happy to help...

Been using the Sense 1.5 for a whole day and noticed that my battery ran out for the first time today. The new rom REALLY eats up battery life!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mstulanovic:
I am using SenseHero 1.5 for 2 days, and the battery life is same like MoDaCo's ROM,

I didn't see any differences, the phone is connected to 2G network all the time, emails coming every 10-20 minutes, calls, SMSs... haven't see any differences, like before, I have to recharge my battery every second day... and I think it is normal for this phone...

with out internet I think it will last for 4 days at least. :)

Yes, you can, no worries, just put it on your SD, bootloader, then flash it without any data loss... If u have something important then make an Nandroid Backup, and than flash... :)

I only have one issue..after some time customizing my hero, I tried to download some new apps from the market ,but they stuck at downloading.

I think this happened before to someone..any solution???

And please try to fix Facebook contacts sync in people application..it keeps messing up my contacts photos..

Thanx in advance
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hertus:
This ROM with SenseHero 1.5 is just great!

+ fast / stable kernel

+ found no bugs / fails / all apps works... (since 2 days ^^)

+ sensible apps integrated (Titanium Backup, SU, Wifi Tether) and not overloaded...

- first i've got problems with google account login and facebook login (exchange works at first time...), but 1 or 2 restarts, reconnect etc. it works! :)

only one thing for me:

- wath about german keyboard or more languages?

anyone knows where to download and install + works with this SenseHero?

thanks man an keep going with this kitchen!

I've been testing my WCDMA only set from the *#*#4636#*# menu. But it still doesn't solve my problem. WCDMA only function is to allow 3G and HSDPA I need 3G and 2G only :

(

I know this is not Rom related but maybe stickman has an option. Because on the first version of this rom it seemed to be working. Untill the HSDPA fix came out.

the HSDPA_rollback wasn't working

It works great and is really responsive. I've installed it in the following order:

1. full wipe

2. install senshero 1.5

3. install kernel_fix

4. install wavesecure

5. reboot

6. reboot

With linpack I get 2.20 - 2.35 MFLOPS.

Hey Stickman,

I noticed that someone mentioned green boxes in the new 1.5.

For unread emails (not gmail or exchange) the marker on the left is still green rather than blue as expected. The first and very minor bug I have found with this ROM.

Can't wait to see if you do a 2.1 ROM
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thanito:
any solution about the stuck at ''starting download'' issue?

edit: problem solved, google talk service had to be enabled
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Hey guys, sorry I havent been around today, Its been a very busy day for me, I'm shattered.

I have noticed we now have a swarm of 2.1 builds now as we have successfully ported the Droid Eris build to the hero, they all seem to be relatively smooth, there are still minor issues with them but definetely issues that can be ironed out.

Looks like I will be working on a sensehero 2.1 build then :D

Can't help but feel that all the 2.1 builds in the hero thread have been rushed, but hey it is big news.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Thanks everyone who has left feedback and reported bugs, I will get them resolved asap.

Thanks again

I've been using your rom and have found it to be clean, fast and tidy. Thank you. As requested by other users, it would be great to have one with 2.1 firmware.

Could I also request that you keep the UI, colour scheme and everything else the way it is on your 1.5?

Thank you

Do i have to wipe if i come from SenseHero 1.4?

Thx
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grassiekuik:
"Created" another one. Or inverted the image as i saw a question on how it would look like inverted.

Well this is the answer :cool:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
I gotta say, that looks good inverted, did you apply a grayscale throughout the animation also? I haven't had a chance to check it out. Will in a mo.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grassiekuik:
I just clicked around some in the Gimp. That isn;t my thing. I'm more of a photoshop man. It is grayscaled though
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Just tried it out and it does look great, I am gonna try some more variation's on that look if you dont mind and I will post it up on the front page for all.

Anyone notice that the battery drain super duper fast after using SenseHero 1.5? I think i'm facing this problem even though i updated to teknologist 1.92. With fully charge and after 5 hours, the battery drop to 60% without only few calls and messages.

my battery life has increased with this rom, just for the record :D

try doing some battery management tweaks on your phone, to increase your battery's life.

reduce the update frequency for the weather n social networks, emails, etc.

if you dont use 3g switch to 2g only, DISABLE ALWAYS ON MOBILE...!

lower your brightness.. there is more to do ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thanito:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
I have some changes made for the boot screen, it again is a small change to the quietly brilliant bootscreen in invert (black). Where the first section will show "HTC quietly brilliant" and the next will show "SenseHero xxxxxx xxxxxx".

Could anyone sum up SenseHero 1.5 in two words similar to HTC's "quietly brilliant" which we can then apply to the bootscreen.

If we can get some suggestions up, i can then implement it into the bootscreen for an optional update package and to be built into future SenseHero builds.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
I was thinking of using...

SenseHero

elegant blue streak

Definition:

Elegant = beautiful, tasteful

Blue Streak = speedy, fast

It could be the rom slogan aswell, hmmm SenseHero - elegant blue streak, better then the re-release lol.

What do you guys think, or have you got some suggestions?

The preview image below is static, but the final if you like it will be animated.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kongkkm:
Thanks, just notice my always-on mobile is ENABLE. While report back in few days about the battery drain.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Raptor-21:
Reverting back to Sense hero after giving Villian a spin, to much problems atm, and not as smooth as yours, not to mention the battery drain on them! Going to wait until you release a 2.1 update before going back to 2.1.

Anyway, I have one request; is it possible to release a non-skinned version? Or tell me how I could get the default skin? It's not that I dislike the sensehero skin, I just much prefer the default one. I don't mind custom boots tho, alsong as you don't decide to throw in a nexus one boot like villian has...

Thank you for your continued support!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Yeah no problem, i will whip up the files later for the default htc theme as alot of system apps have been skinned with the SenseHero UI elements aswell. Shouldn't be any trouble at all though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grassiekuik:
Nice even though I don't like the slogan
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stickman89:
Open to suggestions, the image posted was just a preview of what it would look like, any idea's for a slogan?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grassiekuik:
Heck i'm brainstorming like crazy. Was even following the topic while driving home :P I saw you did some with the bevel and emboss setting. I suggest you don't do that and keep it just flat. The color is great and fitting the sense theme.

I think the slogan you thought of is too long. I'll keep ya posted if I come up with something
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Raptor-21:
Cheers for that Stickman.

And for the slogan what about:

SenseHero

Without Compromise

Or

SenseHero

As it Should Be

Or

SenseHero

Stick it to the Man​
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Liavk1:
SenseHero

the way it should feel

SenseHero

Comes To Your Senses

or awaken your senses

or open your senses

Or the sixth sense
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Teeth=]:
