Read my post.. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5965469&postcount=963

I just let it idle and it worked. Flawlessy. I'm actually posting from it now using aNetShare as my companies WiFi sucks ass.

Settings for Vodafone are easily found on Google (APN instellingen Vodafone).

It takes a while. For me, after a few hours of network connection, the first few started to pour in. This happens with the official ROM's as well. Bandwith priority policies I guess. Try to give it a day.

The Legend build in APN list is just to big to handle that's all.

Modify backup xml and restore that 1 with apn backup and restore.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
As well as adding in a thank you to my first post, I'd like to just devote a post to saying THANK YOU to Mike Perry from the USA, who recently donated a HTC Hero to me for dev use.

Mike has made my development life so much easier, as I recently lost my original phone due to a hugely damaged screen and broken casing. This was due to dropping it from a great height.

Again, this is an unbelievable donation, from someone who is clearly a very generous man.

Thank you once again Mike; for making my development life so much easier.

I'm sure the community will thank you for me now having the ability to test roms on my phone all day long, rather than the previously allocated 2-3 hours per evening.

Mike; you're a legend.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MartijnGP:
There is no need to restore anything. At least, there wasn't for me. I didn't need to use the APN backup/restore ap either (Market wasn't working..). It just started functioning after a few hours.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dr3as:
Is it just me, or are the HTC Settings Widgets missing?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] claudefrog:
Yeah, me too

Facebook sync is fine and it's worked on all the ROMS I have tried.

Just for information, on every ROM I install I always go through the set up wizard and log into my twitter, facebook and flickr accounts.

Once sense loads I reboot and then click on the Facebook icon in my apps list, I login through there again and 2 minutes later all my contacts are synced and pictures displayed.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
You might be right there. I never use them, as I prefer Power Control.

If they're missing, I'll add them to Beta3, which I'm working on tonight & tomorrow.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jocaferlo:
I have HTC Widgets settins working.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] movingtea:
SPL and RADIO

Which SPL and RADIO should I use if I want to flash this ROM?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sedinix:
can you reply ? im sure 1 of yours rom have working 3d gallery its much faster than normal and that bug its anoining.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] yellowt:
With villain 3.4 I had voice call with long pressing hard key. Now, with, the beta2, nothing happens... That's normal?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] claudefrog:
Use the latest RADIO - 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26

Check the main page for sticky links to Radio and SPL
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
Sorry; Gallery3DMT.apk is installed on this rom. The quicker to load version is the standard Gallery3D.apk (without the multitouch).

As for the Landscape/Portrait bug... I have never knowdingly fixed this. If it was fixed, it was purely unintentional...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
VoiceDialler.apk hasn't been included.

I can include in /DATA if this is missed.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Have you tried making sure you can restore from outside sources before using mybackup pro (this may just be a bug in the new version that needs ironing out)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sedinix:
ah OK can someone with fast download speed test it ??

Villain3TEST3

I think this relase have working 3d gallery witch vertical and landspace swiching
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Piercy0812:
i use apps2sd and rarely have to clear out my ext partition, for beta2 i did but for most of the other builds my apps just stayed installed. i did have to reconfigure them though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Piercy0812:
i dont think this was ever fixed, there was a work around where if you open it when the phone is already landscape it works but switching while its open doesnt.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
FOR ALL THOSE WITH FACEBOOK ISSUES THIS COULD BE WHY

Hi all I believe I know why facebook is not working for you all.

Facebook can only sync with your contacts if it knows who they are. Tha majority of us here will use google contacts as thats the best way of managing them on android phones.

During setup we are not leaving it long enough between logging into google (so it syncs our contacts) and then logging into facebook meaning facebook tries to sync just the few contacts are on the phone at that time.

What you should do during setup is log into google then wait for the sync icon to disappear before logging into twitter and facebook then don't restart your phone until the sync icon has again disappeared.

Now I have tested this a few times and I am virtually sure this is the reason for the majority of facebook problems people are having.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
yes please I like it (even though it needs an American accent to work most of the time)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sedinix:
I give me hand cut if Im wrong Im sure in 100% there was 1 rom witch working land + horizontal. Im switching orientation and don't have graphic bug.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
there was but I think we had to sacrifice other 3d graphics in order to have it like this, was not really worth it seen as there is a work around as it is.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] claudefrog:
I agree with this, as per my previous reply in an earlier thread, I use googlemail to manage my contacts and have never had an issue with facebook sync. LennyUK is spot on with how mine is set up.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] an0therus3r:
@nprussell

I saw you mention Villain 4.0 Beta 3 on other topic, any ETA on that ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jeremy89632:
I think for the gallery3d.apk issue.

We should include the gallery3D.apk and offer the multitouch version as a update.zip

Or vice versa.

So everyone will be happy!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mattyguk:
Funny you should mention this as with the last few loads of the rom i've skipped setting up facebook, and put it in the 'do later pile'. When i get round to setting it up, I fill in the details wait 5 min, reboot and they all get sync'd up no problem in a few min.

I thought it had been fixed i didn't realize the method i used might have been sorting it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
I'll avoid the clichéd; 'When it's ready', response.

If I were to hazard a guess, I'd say the end of the week (Fri/Sat). Don't hold me to that. It was a nightmare on Monday trying to meet the deadline I had set myself unncessarily.

I have a lot of work to do on it. Although the fixes seem minor at first glance, they're actually a lot of work.

Anyway, follow me on Twitter, and check out the VillainROM website, where I'll post development updates.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
have one question for u guys,

how does it play mp3 but 320 bitrate ?

After a while, it hangs by me, but it plays good the 128 bitrate i have.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] geoff_allix:
Do you have any idea on the Sense FC bug that a lot of people are getting? What's annoying is that I loved this ROM and now can't use it. If it weren't such a good ROM I wouldn't mind :-(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] skauk:
I love 3.4

Not sure I want to make the move to 4 yet but I need to ask has anyone noticed that some apps that use the internet like Pirate Wars wont work ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
The older one had a problem with "not showing pics in gmail", villain 4.0 shows everything ok, so your problem may be gone it too.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] evilfry:
i am using the port of this in 32a by robocik.

Facebook's contacts initially did not sync completely no matter how hard i tried. I had to remove account, re-add then resync
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
It's difficult to fix as I cannot replicate it. I haven't had a single FC, and I'm using the rom on 2 Heros right now!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] geoff_allix:
Is there anything we can do to log the bug in any way? The worry is that the trigger seems to be different for everyone, but it can make a perfectly good phone instantly useless.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vido.ardes:
ROM's based on the Eris leak had a bug where applications couldn't make http requests (so images would appear in Gmail for instance). This is what you are describing, and is fixed in the Legend based releases (villain 4.0)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sakolaas:
It's working perfectly for both me and a classmate :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arshad14:
Out of curiosity, is it after you install Handscent that you get the crash or after you set the calendar widget on to the screen. Cause that's what I do as well and get the FC and I'm trying to figure out if Handscent or the calendar widget might be the cause.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erikwt:
Google Talk problems

Am I the only one having (many) FC's in com.google.process.gapps when using Google Talk or is it a ROM problem? If it's a problem in the ROM I will try to get the eris-based version to work in this one, if not I might try reflashing.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
I use the Calendar widget, so it's not that.

I don't use Handcent though. I'll install that and test it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] supadupa111:
FC on sense? I updated without a wipe and not have a FC
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jeremy89632:
The bug tracker informs us that there are people which have problem with handcent. However, there are a few people which reported that It is working fine and the application itself is causing the problem. Issue marked as resolved in tracker.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tofrost:
is it possible to disable compcache in this release? If it is possible, how it is done?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] leinad:
I use both, without any single FC ...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fuzzic:
Thnx for another great rom!

But I just have one question, is it possible to get Norwegian dictionary without installing Scandinavian Keyboard and Norwegian Dictionary?

I like the Sense keyboard a lot more...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] supadupa111:
I use both too. Handcent is laggy on the betas but doesnt not kill the phone.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] piotrreq:
The same is for me :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] geoff_allix:
I don't use Handcent or the calendar widget. I use stock messaging and the Agenda Widget, however this happened when I used the HTC People widget. Everything was running smoothly and then I clicked on a contact and got into an FC loop that needed a flash.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HomerSp:
Here's an update.zip which fixes the various graphical glitches and removes the Save Scene dialog that appeared after a wipe.

If Sense (RosieUtil) crashes right after a boot you may need to do a data wipe.

Still can't boot into system after updated RADIO

Sorry, I still can't boot into system, all I got is a big TIM logo on my screen. I did fully wipe before flash ROM, and used several cards to see if it's because a bad card, and also I changed my RADIO to 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26, the latest RADIO I could find.

I flashed for 5 times, and each time I was waited for nearly 30 minutes, nothing I can see except a big TIM.

Could anyone help me with this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:

help please

so is this faster/as good as/ slower than 3.4 atm??

thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mrtoken:
This is a issue some of us are having,

Issue is logged in the bug reporter

Only thing you can do is go back to 4.0beta 1 or 3.4 and wait, you could try to reload the beta after all wipes and not load any programs, I have a feeling its something to do with handcent widget once put onto a home screen
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] andresousa90:
I agree with you nexus style is cool but vilain 3.4 is supercool:D

which I have some dev habilities...lol
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] VenomGBR:
If the theme from 3.4 was ported to this 4.0 Rom, i'd definately move back to using Villain.

Also, fix the random htc sense FC thing that makes your phone a brick.

I'm hoping these get addressed soon! Im stuck for a decent rom.

Just a question, which of them updates on that villain site are considered to be for 4.0b2?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] raajkay:
I may have missed the conversation on whether a wipe is required when coming from 4.0b1. Can the update from b1 to b2 be performed without a wipe?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] andresousa90:
For me looks is very important... This rom looks nice but looks banal and for me villain deserves a special looks to her special performance...

And I agree with our "god" Nathan make the themes optional and work like a update file, but the big problem is that not exist themes...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
a wipe is always advisable however many people have done it without a wipe and it seems to work fine.

Hello,

I would like to do my first custom rom install and was hoping to have someone point me in the right direction for a guide to do this properly. I found a newbie guide to install a custom rom: hxxp://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=645253

Yep this is what i did the first time i flashed my phone, however you may need to use gold card (i did not have to but got my phone last year around October09), Just don't panic when doing it, take your time, read and re-read and follow the steps, when i did my FlashRec.apk it said it did not work however it did (don't know if this is still a problem).

And always wait for the phone to reboot (it may seem like its taking a really long time when rebooting after a flash of the firmware) i tend to leave it for up to 20 - 25 mins before pulling the battery

Yes but are you using the handcent widget, i.e. under widgets you pick handcent (the one with the little green dot that tells you how many sms's you have, like on the iphone)

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Bram77:
I've tried this rom for a day now. I like where it's going but it's to memory consuming. Initially, after booting and killing all active tasks, it has about 70 to 90 MB free ram. But after using for a few hours (only using the FS and Contacts widget, opening a webpage and making a call or two) the free memory is down to 15 to 30MB. The phone becomes so slow that it's hardly usable. Even starting the taskkiller takes ages.

There are a few bugs, like the camera app crashing and only after rebooting being able to start again and the (slick looking with Picasaweb integration!!!) 3D gallery which won't load some pictures (probably due to memory issues). These are minor problems though. Overall the ROM seems pretty stable!

I'm not complaining, I'm actually complimenting :), but might save some people some time who are looking for a fast(er) 2.1 ROM....which does not exist (yet) in my experience :P

That's the guide I used, really simple and straightforward, just make sure you read it through properly.

It'll guide you through the easiest ways to root first, and if those don't work it has a link to the goldcard method (which is what I had to do in the end)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mrtoken:
I was using the widget on beta1 fine but beta2 hates me LOL,

I have noticed this as well. Even Autokiller App doesn't keep memory over 80MB on aggressive presets. So at the moment I have to use Task killer very often, otherwise ROM is great.

I don`t think you need gold card for that rom. use the guide in sticky pages here in G2 developement or unlockr. And get to it. It`s so much fun!!!
