USB Tethering

First off, thanks for such a great vanilla rom. I've been using your rom since 0.9 and been happy so far :)

The only thing I'm missing is the USB mobile data sharing that natively available in Sense.

I notice the Internet tethering option in the settings menu but it's not supposed to work, right? With such option selected, I enabled my 2G/3G network and then plugged the USB to my laptop... but it didn't work out :(

(I'm pretty certain that I have all required drivers.... Plus, my laptop once worked with Sense's USB tethering)

PS1. Wireless tethering always works just fine but also heat my phone (~50C after ten minutes usage or so).

PS2. I've recently tried Pdanet but it as well made my phone reaching 46-47C in less than half an hour :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bigviv:
but all i have is slide screen left / LAB / RAB / slide screen right

i don't have messages, call, contacts etc. as in the screenshots...

any ideas?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xtkme:
This build comes with 2 launchers. That one you're using is ADW, dude.

Try clearing the default launcher application in the settings.... Next time you press the home key, it would prompt you which launcher do you prefer :)

Or just re-installing LauncherPro from Market (same version, anyway) :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bigviv:
cool, thanks

last q, i've used 2.1 diallers before but it's only just started to bug me

is it possible to get a dialler which shows contacts as per the numbers/letters you're writing out? i.e. if i want to call john, all i want to do is start typing in 5646...

any help? :o

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] x10397:
Hi,

Love the rom and would take the plung to 2.1.

The rom is fast and stable, but i can't seem to be able to sync my exchange calendar. Contacts and Mail are ok, but calendar doesn't show.

Infortunately this is a deal breaker for me. Can someone help me?

Thanks and keep up the good work.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MaXo64:
of course, downloaded Behnam's source and will compile as soon as possible :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] joaann:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ahmadmz3:
I hope you change the music player for next release , today it FC a lot !

I had to use wikitune .
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pper:
HTC_CIME FC, i really want to use it. but seems no senseui cause the problem.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MaXo64:
if this awesome Music player works flawlessly on everybody's phones but FC on your phone, that means your installation is WRONG !!

give me the output of "adb logcat" and I'll see if there is a problem. but replacing it? i'm sure 99.9% of users disagree, including me !!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dantad:
This is awesome! 100% better than the stock HTC Sense rom. My HTC Hero is like a new phone :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] saar73:
days in Alarm are still display as numbers :cool:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arj03:
Installed 0.4:

- netcounter crashed 2 times

- barcode scanner crashes every time I try to open

- same with maps ;-(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HishamN:
Hi,

Anyone trie a2dp "Bluetooth during calls"?

Is it working or not?

Regards
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] liorry:
uninstall and install from Market.

Maxo, I still think you should exclude additional apps in the core rom... :)

Thanks for 0.4! great!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Sobab:
I tried it with the earlier edition of this rom and at that time it did not work. Can´t find that there has been any modifications in the a2dp.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arj03:
Works fine for maps (THANKS), but barcode scanner is still buggy. Probably something with the new camery. I uninstalled netcounter, not sure why anyone would want to include it by default in a speedy rom ;-)

Other than that I like it a lot. I got facebook sync working in 0.3, but I like syncmypix better. Also it seems like I can't upgrade facebook?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arj03:
More bad news, andnav2 is not working. Clicking map kills it. There really is something fishy with this rom :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MaXo64:
guys, did you wipe??

also, please give me the output of "adb logcat" if you can .. I cant solve a problem that I don't have in my phone..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arj03:
I reformatted the sd card prioer to installing 0.4, it seems the problem is that andnav2 can't write to /data/data/org.andnav2/. Permissions of that dir is app_64?

Problem of the same kind for barcode scanner, think I'll have to wipe properly.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arj03:
Ok after wiping everything it seems now to be working. Sorry for all the fuss :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arj03:
I have never been able to get contact importing working in android 2.1. I just tried importing a vcard and got the following trace. The second time it worked:

Oh man I can't download the new update from here (KSA) , give me another link and I will upload it to zshare if you want , also do I need to wipe before installing this rom (I'm using ahero 0.1 ) .
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MaXo64:
this is zShare .. and works for me in KSA too:

Unfortunately I'm experiencing infinite loop while booting (0.4), just endless of bubbles passing by...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Soaa-:
The Power Control widget doesn't show its icons in 0.4. Also, I was getting a few FCs with Apex Uninstaller, Google Setup, and some others.

I've reverted to another ROM for now. I'm eager to see how aHero progresses though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ejo8210:
Outlook sync

I can not get it to sync contact with Outlook. Should this work?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] awsy44:
Hi, I just tried the Rom , did a wipe, sd:ext wipe and delvik wipe, flashed this ROM and I can tell you everything works perfectly, I just did the google setup, got my contacts without any issues, I used the Power Control Widgets and its running perfect. I don't know about Apex Uninstaller because I don't use it. Apart from that everything is running just like it supposed to!.

Thanks so much for this fantastic ROM, I really love it, I'm going to test it out a bit more and let you know how it goes along
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MaXo64:
you need to wipe the "ext" partition on your SD card too..

hmm, did you wipe? if you did, please give me the "adb logcat" output..

I don't know !! i'm an Anti-Microsoft guy.. :D

but give me the "adb logcat" output when syncing. I'll try to see the problem..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ahmadmz3:
Its weird the web site doesn't appear to me ! (I don't know why ) .

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ahmadmz3:
I don't know how to use adb. Anyway since no one reported that its not working ,then it must be a problem with the installation .

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] 2shellbonus:
Great ROM. I've tried a lot of ROMs, with Sense, without, and this seems to be the one thats clicked for me. Its fast and smooth and i really like the default background :)

So, I'd like to just thank you for your effort and hope you continue innovating.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xtkme:
Looking forward to that :D

I've used aHero since 0.7 and its one of my favorite ROMs. It is fast an responsive and the only ROM that supports right to left languages perfectly.

But the only reason that I'm not going to use this version like the previous ones is that it's battery performance is terrible.

My phone cant last a day without any phone calls or Data connection.

Please solve this problem and save me from changing ROMs every day ;)

tethering over USB / contacts

USB internet sharing not working for me. if I check the option in settings, nothing happens. if I use the wifi tethering, then my phone is getting really hot. it was plugged to the charger, it was showing, that the battery is charging but then, when I stopped wifi tethering, cause the phone was too hot, the battery was empty, my phone just went off and I had to charge it for at least 5 minutes while powered off to be able to power on again.

my other issues with contacts:

[1.] I'm having in my gmail account 1.659 contacts BUT for some reason the phone is showing only 1.644, for obvious reasons I don't want to search for the missing 15 contacts to find out what's wrong with them, why they're not synced to the phone... all my contacts are in the category "My contacts" / "All contacts", they are not divided into other categories.

[2.] my contacts are stored: "Lastname, Name" BUT after syncing with FB some contacts are showed in the way as they are on FB, mostly "Name Lastname" and I cannot override this name change... it's just messy in my contacts now. the other mysterious thing is, that not all FB contacts are linked with my phone contacts and there is no manual option to link them (as it is in some Sense ROM's). what's the criteria for FB to link to a contact in phonebook? my gmail contacts are having the same e-mail address as the contacts in FB but some of them are not syncing, don't know why? is the sync checking the names? or phone numbers? or what? why are some of my contacts liked to FB and some not?

is there a solution for me? am I the only one with this "problem"? couldn't find anything regarding this in the forum.

thanx for any replies!

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tbman1996:
Great ROM by the looks of it MaXo , looking forward to trying it next weekend!

A few questions though:

1. Will the next release come with overclockable kernel?

2. Any plans on including the updated SU app?

3. Froyo plans? ;P

--------------

Btw guys, is it easy to send tracks via Bluetooth with the Music mod? Like the HTC Music app, not having to use some File-Transfer apps and have to go through your file system.

Also, how is battery life? (and with what settings -GSMauto etc.)

EDIT: Regarding the app storage issue, wouldn't it be simpler to include the relevant commands in the update-script. I presume this would work and stop alot of n00bs complaining :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tbman1996:
You have a CDMA Hero!! Never use anything that says "GSM Hero"! I suggest you go to the CDMA Hero section

Insane to the membrane!
