Hrm, I've come across an odd little issue. Every now and again the phone will just restart. I'm not too sure what is causing it because it seems to be rather random.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Denil Wong:
Gallery 3D

Does this ROM includes the gallery?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Icchan:
I'm using this rom... i found only 2 issues:

1) speaker is too loud

2) when the phone is in standby i recive "application is not responding" and i think drains battery very much.

there is a fix for those issues?

thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Fraqq:
Nice ROM. till now everything works fine

Battery report:

Well I had very poor coverage and a very long phone conversation and still got 24hrs out of it no problem..

I am recharging now and will give more city signal strength based numbers.

No GPS fix in Navigation (is that the bug)... 3G in maps works tho ;)

I don't use exchange so can't provide any feedback there...

SMS and MMS working fine for me :)

Hi RaiderX303,

Would you mind providing me the steps of installing the Rom? Thankyou very much. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] melnychuk:
Great ROM! Fast and stable. Definitely worth a donation!

Tried VillainROM 3.4 first, but it was too buggy and I didn't like the styling.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Yamthief:
Same, VillainRom was nice and fast, but i didn't rate the skin. Downloading this ROM (1.1) now.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaiderX303:

Any fix for the GPS.

Does not work unless you reboot device. A bit difficult if you are out and about a lot.

Otherwise a awesome ROM.

Ta,

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kiwi89:
I've just had a little bit of a play around with it. It seems to work well actually.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
I am not sure if this will help with the GPS problem.

If I turn on Airplane Mode and watch the GPS (GPS Status) the satellites come up almost immediately.

Turn Airplane Mode off and fire up wither WiFi or Mobile Data and the satellites start dropping off one by one.

Hope somebody can use this.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kiwi89:
Lately with this rom I've been waking the phone to find one of the background apps has crashed. Not any of the apps that I've installed on there, but the music app and the sense stuff has been crashing. I'm not too sure what is causing it though. But it only ever happens when I wake the phone up and it doesn't seem to be effecting the running of the phone at all.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fin05:
Constantly crashes

I have recently installed this Rom and it is very fast :) i only have one problem but it is a big problem... After sending an sms i press the home button or the back button to return to the main screen and the UI crashes and has to reload itself. has anyone experienced this or know what would cause it?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaiderX303:
try wipe and reflash, i have managed to reproduce the FC after every unlock, it appears to be the full screen weather animations, a reboot appears to fix the issue although i have just disabled it
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] merlin699:
working the third day now with it and it works nearly perfect. since I managed to get the GPS working I got 2 random reboots. everything else is fine.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
What did you do to get the GPS working. I have been struggling with mine, but today I used a new rare earth magnet mount in the car. It caused the phone to recalibrate the compass and the GPS started working. Phone is off and charging at the moment but when it is on again I will see what the GPS is up to.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] melnychuk:
Yes, I also had one random reboot today.

GPS works fine for me. Don't remember doing anything special, though…

Another issue is with alerts. Can't adjust the volume for alarm clock. At least it is set to max, so I don't sleep over :]

Apart from that everything is great. Great ROM!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] omniwired:
please update /system/usr/share/zoneinfo/ directory the timezone data is old.

Thank you for your work.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] merlin699:
I read somewhere that you have to turn on GPS, starting e.g. GoogleMaps and do reboot (shutdown and boot again) and then the gps should work always.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Diamond Geezer:
Tried Villian 3.4 then this and I have to say this feels quicker. Villian had some screen buttons that were unresponsive and stuttered a little. This seems great so far.

I have found with wireless tether it seems to kill the active mobile network internet access when the program starts. You have to just turn it off then on again (just the gsm internet access not the actual phone) then it works. This is the same with pre7 and pre8 versions. I started using Anetshare which is slower to get connected but once it is works fine. It would be good to get wireless tether t work properly though

GPS, navigator, maps etc all worked fine 1st time for me. Even about 5m from the nearest window I get 8 satellites.

One thing that seems to be missing from all the 2.1 roms I've tried is the "mobile network sharing option" (via usb cable) that you get with UK stock 1.5 ROM (I know the wireless tethering sort of replaces it but it would be good to have both options). I think things would happen a little quicker via a cable. And if the tethering programs didn't exist how would we do it ? Am I just missing where it is ??

All in all great ! I'll try and report on battery usage over the next few days

UK Orange HTC Hero

Raidroid 1.1
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaiderX303:
im working on implementing the usb tether thats in my legendroid rom and also working on the IME performance in the MMS app
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] El Salvador:
I like the ROM thus far.

Have more people experienced that Google Earth won't open?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
GPS worked like a charm on the way home last night.

This morning, nothing. Had to reboot the device.

Is your way supposed to make it work forever, or do you have to do this everytime?

Can't be rebooting everytime I get in the car and I use my GPS a lot :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaiderX303:
google earth is only for WVGA devices like nexus one, moto droid/milestone, acer liquid, htc desire
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] merlin699:
before the gps-reboot the gps did never work, only on airplane-mode. after the gps-reboot-trick the gps works on my device always without the need to reboot.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] El Salvador:
Ok thanks for the heads up.

Really like your work so thanks a bunch!

Some other experiences:

- Cannot seem to change the lockscreen wallpaper (now it does work!)

- Sudden reboot while using the latest version of Google maps (with GPS enabled)

- GPS fix is inaccurate

- Boot screen sound is not muted when phone is in silent mode.

- MMS still doesn't work after using MmsZap (Vodafone NL, unbranded)

Hope that helps you to finetune the ROM even more. :)

problems I found with Raidroid

Hello,

I have installed raidroid and it's working fine. Just have some apps that are not working.

I often use the application SIPDROID an it doesn't work very fine.

I also see that it is not possible to set pop email accont as it was the case on HTC Hero 1.5, are some evolution in the pipe for that?

Thanks advance,

Dolfidop
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Catscrash:
is there a fix to the exchange-bug yet?

anyone else with not-working market here? only "install" button is there, no description, and after clicking install the screen is just white :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Taijohnsen:
I have been using the rom for a while now, I installed overclockwidget which needs root permission..

When it requests root privileges it just hangs on the SU permission screen... No prompt, just a blank screen.. Home button exits, nothing else responds..

Any ideas?

EDIT: Wireless tether gives the same results..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Diamond Geezer:
So I just got a 15% battery remaining warning and just thought I'd let you know my findings according to the battery info page

Uptime 25:20

Awake time 24:13

Battery Usage

Cell Standby 40%

Phone Idle 39%

Display 7%

GPS Status 4%

Camera 3%

Maps 3%

Voice Calls 2%

Wifi 2%

I'd consider this quite lightish everyday use really ocasionally checking emails via 3g and wifi depending if i'm at home or not, a couple of snaps etc etc. Always turning off data connections when not needed

Would anyone say this is good/bad ? It seems to me that most smart phones need charging every day and if we are to use them as smart phones as they are intended (otherwise we might as well just dig out the old g only handsets from yesteryear) then battery life isn't going to be much better no matter what the ROM.

not sure how Taijohnsen gets two days and battery still at 49% ???

My phone and battery are new (5days old) by the way
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Taijohnsen:
Your phone isn't sleeping when the screen is off due to the GPS bug i think.. Re-start with gps off and leave it off, perhaps update your radio version if you haven't.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] El Salvador:
Have you put USB debugging ON?

(Settings - Apps - Development)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Diamond Geezer:
Ahh ok so the phone is supposed to go into a sleep mode when you press the screen off key ?? is there a setting for this I can't see or is it supposed to happen automatically ?

Yes I have the latest radio rom installed.

Can you explain the gps bug as it has always worked ok for me i.e. it seems to turn on/off fine and get a lock every time. I've never seen it as a running service in the applications menu when it is turned off like it is staying on or anything.

Thanks for all your suggestions by the way.

Hi, this is my first time on xda and installing a custom rom.

Could anyone guide me on msn what todo?

I want to try this rom
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] naenee:
If you are using a HTC Hero, you should first install a Recovery Rom, such as the one in this article:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=561124

Furthermore, please use the search function, it's there for your convenience.

Succes ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kaasinees:
I was more looking for personal guidance, so i can also get to know this person and make a friend who does this stuff to.

I will look in the link.

(Yes i have the hero, im not stupid, just dont like following text, i rather have guidance directly from a person)

edit: do i have to use recovery rom? i dont mind using adb commands

edit:i cant even install recovery rom, no access.. cuz i got t-mobile
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Taijohnsen:
As far as i know, if you touch the GPS at all, the phone won't sleep.. If you turn off GPS then reboot, the phone should sleep. If it doesn't try again.

Thanks El Salvador! My USB debugging was off ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Diamond Geezer:
cheers for that

so far

battery 70%

up time 21:09

awake time 1:03

cell standby 46%

phone idle 47%

etc

so I guess it's sleeping now cheers

Calculator change

A trivial question (but not for me ...):confused::

How can I change the default calculator included in this ROM with the calculator thats included in Modaco's 3.2 or Mr. Bang's (both are 1.5 ROMs). I like that calculator much more (from the esthetic point of view, but also functionality).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] amosingh:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Pagan:
Every time i'm putting my phone in standby, the wallpapers disappear. The same thing happens with every rom with live wallpapers that uses open GL. They only stay if you leave usb power plugged-in.

I was hoping this was the real fix for this problem. Guess it's not gonna happen on the HERO.

Just wondering

I admire the useability and stability that both your Raidroid and legendroid roms have. However due to them both being 2.1 roms and having not yet tried either i was wondering which one people deem as the better rom, whether it was a clear winner or if the legend for e.g. is slower but less buggy, or visa versa. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated as i intend to switch to one of these ROMS tonight!! :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdewa:
I tried the market, internet...

it says sorry ( process com.android.browser ) has stopped unexpectedly please try again.

Can anyone help with that please?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaiderX303:
Legendroid is the more stable rom and more functional, it is slightly slower but still easilly usable.

Try wipe Data (and EXT if using a2sd) and reflash, if still having the same issue then try redownload incase you have a corrupt download

I have tried most of the 2.1 ROMS including those by NPRussell. This is by far the fastest and the most stable. The only I have noted is that WiFi does not work properly.
