I was at a wedding at Christchurch Mansion. Very nice place...

(I'm going OT on my own thread here... sorry Kendong)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
See devblog.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] leinad:
I've no clear explanation for that.

But, what I can tell you is that, after having moved dalvik cache to SD, I got back 112 MB free :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Kadounet:
Hi,

First, great job for this Beta 2.

Near something usable every day for me.

At last, i have a strange bug on this version :

I'm on the french network SFR (Vodafone), and now, i can't make a call to the number "123". It call an emergency number, number 112.

It's really annoying, i have to wait for a incoming call to check my messages :(

Any idea ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjasper:
I have 151mb free.

Around 25 apps installed, after wiping everything (back up sdcard contents then copied back data but not any settings folders) after install completed, including battery stats and rotation stats then using Amon to partition the sd card again (just to make sure) I flashed the rom.

Followed Russells instructions to the letter about installing, then applied the apps2sd, dalvik and flashing led hotfixes in that order.

I re-installed all my apps from the market, rather than attempting to restore, and the only data restored with mybackup pro was call logs, sms, mms, bookmarks, alarms and dictionaries.

So far no FC, interface is a little laggy sometimes but since this rom isnt really for this phone anyway I find the performance pretty good until HTC get off their collective arses and stop worrying about legend sales and release the official upgrade.

:D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
So you can't dial 123? what exactly happens it reverts to 112?

I can dial 113 fine.

Did you wipe before installing beta 2?

can someone upload in rapidshare? i cant download it from easyshare..

Sorry guys, cant find all the fixes, which are comming around... is there any place i can find all of them ?

I am maybe blind this morning, but cant find them. :/

Nathan:

Can you please help me fix the Gtalk issue? I guess it is a "time based problem"

The thing is that my chats don´t appear threaded as they should, mainly because when I type something, the hour post my local hour, but when people responds to me, it is labeled one hour less, so all the answers are grouped together at the top, while all my posts appear grouped together at the bottom as well.

Is there a time fix app or this is a rom bug?

Can you check it please?

I keep having FC on messages, process com.android.mms

This happens when i open messages so not by sending sms or mms.

Don't have handcent installed. anybody knows what's up?

cheers,

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
The majority of fixes are no longer necessary, which is why they're not in the first thread.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tomikoran2:
hi guys!

i have installed villain4 beta 2 and i have it for a few days now,it's great!i only have one problem i noticed yesterday,when i am on mobile network and trying to go to browser,or dolphin browser it won't display any pages!i can go to market normally on mobile data but cannot browse the web.when i am on wifi browser is working...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] orgasmatrond:
Try deleting all the APN's using APN Backup & Restore, and then manually input only your local SPM. That did the trick for me, and I had the exact same issue
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tomikoran2:
man thanks a lot!it's working now!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
Yesss i found them, but i saw someone installed led fix, i though it was a LED fix, not trackball fix hehe... missunderstood, and searched ghosts. ;)

Thanks guys...

I have one question tho... does the original HTC Music player, plays mp3(320bitrate) for you ? it hangs for me after a while, but other players have not this issue, they are working good.

can someone test it for me? i have ported this awesome rom to my magic, and dont know if it is my porting issue or the rom/player issue.

thanks in advance.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Storken:
First of all i LOVE this Rom.

so here comes one more mirror VillianROM 4 Beta2 (RapidShare) :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nicknyhk:
sorry but now im a bit confused..i remember the legend beta needed fixes but if i flash legend beta2 do i still need to flash all the same fixes again or is it in built into beta2?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Foka002:
Can't get all 4 Picture frames on desktop. It will allow to stick only 3 of them. Not a big deal but now I have to choose between my dog and my wife :/
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Morak75:
Little advice: for those who flashed without full wipe from beta 1 and are experiencing some lag (beta 2 less speed than beta 1), go Spare Parts and reset Transition Animations to normal.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] matejudo:
Depends on the wife, doesn't it?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] BlueHawk:
Ok. I've now got a weird problem. Well, not necessarily a problem but it's weird and I'm not sure if the data is believable. I've now had the phone on for 10 hours. Battery consumption is down to 95% according to spare parts. Settings battery information tells me that the phone has been awake for 10 hours. Anyone else notice this sort of anomaly with status readings? It's nice if true though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Is it just me or is the advert in spare parts not loading? Not sure if i have a problem with HTTP again like on eris builds.

Edit: just being incredibly dumb as I have not got any connection turned on stupid me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] akirainblack:
That's just plain scary.

It's an easy decision. Which one is likely to bite your head off if you choose the other one?

Or if not that drastic liable to give you grief. LOL
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjasper:
Choose the wife, the dog isnt likely to get offended rooting through your texts and e-mails while you're in the shower

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ratson:
AutoKiller 2.2 is out:

* ordered presets

* custom preset
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marksyzm:
Very, very nice build this one... the only issues are the ones known and stated, very good. Thank you, nprussell and Lennyuk

Oh just a quick note - mine would not boot when I set up ext3 and linux-swap first before I flashed the ROM - any ideas why this might be? I just had a blank ext3 and blank linux swap
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jayzy1:
how can i update an existing version? it wants me to pay again?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
I know you won't like this but are you sure it was ext3?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
If you got it in the market then it won't want you to pay again
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] monastermu:
Thank you for the two new download servers.

The previous file hosting site was quite a headache and a long 500+ seconds wait made me sick.

Downloading and trying your new rom atm

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HomerSp:
If you bought it from the market you should be able to update it (would say Update Available next to it).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tony28:
The gps is working :)

Nathan, Do you plan to make a beta 3 with all the correction ?

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
yes he does
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] olive22:
Nathan, any ETA for your beta 3 (I went to your dev blog to read about it) ?

I'm still on 3.4, and am hesitating to go to 4.0 beta2, given all the fantastic work & fixes you guys have already pushed out :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] BlueHawk:
Dumb question: Did you format the partitions after you created them?

Cheers.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jeremy89632:
This time I really need some help from you guys to confirm some issues about this ROM.

Is .wma song files able to work on Beta 2?

Is HTC Weather Force Close when launched?

Do the phone vibrate when it's told not to?

Please keep me updated, as I wish to keep the bug tracker updated as well.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dalet11:
1. wma dosent works..

2. no fc to me..

3. no..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gc48067:
- .wma - don't use that is it some kind of Microsoft thing :-)

- Weather works fine for me.

- Yes - phone input vibrate doesn't turn off.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] punkmonkey1984:
Great Stuff

Iv been following this Thread for ages, finally went and flashed today, and this is amazingly better then 1.5 modaco rom, loving the new options and details,

Amazing work

Question tho,

whats the battery life like will it last a full day, i remember someone saying its not as good as there are missing some sort of kernel of drivers (i cant remember)

Donation coming on payday to you Nathan

Thanks for breathing life in my other-wise boring hero

Also is it me but i like the old 1.5 icons better anyone else feel this way
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
Thanks, and welcome to Villain :)

The battery will last significantly longer if you remove MMSZap! It's true though; the kernel is the primary cause for the ridiculous battery drain apparent in most 2.X roms.

Anyway.. not to worry; soon we'll have the official update by all accounts.

Until then, we have me + several other people trying to get Villain as close as possible to the 'real thing'.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sedinix:
I have motorola s9 bluetooth headphones and after paring I turn on music player 2 min music and bluetooth disconected me :/

Hope to fix ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mantrajt:
When DL an app, the phone gets pretty numb, anyone can confirm this behavior?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gc48067:
If you mean unresponsive - yes. Mine 'has a bit of a think' while installing but normally only lasts a few seconds.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Wouter1:
Ye I got the same, only when it's installing. Not realy bothering me though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Nemo0815:
GPS is definately not working for me. I tried rebooting several times, but never getting a fix.

Which radio are you using where it works?

-

Also i noticed that i get quite often Network errors and have to press the "Retry" button, that's something i never had with 1.5 based ROMs.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
The latest radio.

I'm sorry to hear you're having a problem. Unfortunately, it's not one that I am having so I can't really help.

Just check to make sure you have the latest radio flashed, as I suspect you have an old version.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thieum la fouine:
sorry mates to bother U but where can I find some good theme for my villain ROM?

I realy like the 3.4 villain theme but just wana try some other.

Nathan your ROMs are awesome, keep it like that :o

I'm thinking about flashing onto the new beta 4.2 but i'm so happy with the 3.4 that i realy wondering if it's necessary :p

is there a big difference between the ERIS and LEGEND dump?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vorach:
i have a bug with answering machine

french sfr

the number is 123 and wen i call this number i fell on an emergency service :s

i have the same problem with behero rom based on legend?!

:confused:

any idea for this bug
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Gr3m1in:
I second this, I have constant retry errors when using wifi and 3g in full reception areas, radio is the very latest 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
yeah it does a bit, but nothing to worry about its very slight.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thieum la fouine:
how did You configured it?

it's working for me (same operator)

i've configured it through menu / parametres / call / parametres de la messagerie then i entered the 123 numeber and it's worging good for me;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
can you not just hold 1 to dial your answer phone?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vorach:
yes i have made it and i get an emergency service like SAMU

and just tape 1 don't work
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] cyberden:
Thanks for the tip! I didn't know that. For those with issues, doesn't the SFR "answering machine" have a full number instead of the short one? For instance, bouygues has a long number (10 digits) and a short one (660) for the same service.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] leinad:
Do you mean that GPS is working without draining your battery, and without having to reboot your device after having switched it off ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HomerSp:
Hmm, my e-mail accounts aren't refreshed automatically. I think they worked on beta 1. Anyone else experience this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mrtoken:
what time of email accounts, i have exchange (work) and gmail working fine, they ding when i get a email.

I have not tried pop or imap however
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] LuffarJoh:
My IMAP account is refreshing automagically without any problems.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
On beta 1 (not had time to move onto 2 yet), I noticed an occasional delay on Exchange push activesync, but it disappeared after I faffed about a bit.

My Google Apps email (a la gmail) works perfectly via push.

But not tried beta 2 yet, although I'd think it would work
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nicknyhk:
mine works fine...well gmail anyways.. maybe u should try logging out of ur mail accounts and set it up again..

if that didnt work perhaps a fullwipe and flash beta2(yikess)

well usually thats what i do to the other roms i have flashed and it usually does the trick
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tony28:
I have switched it on, reboot. And now i have a fix. About the fact, if it drains the battery i don't know.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tony28:
Does the imap work ? Cause yesterday i try to set up an account, and it didn't work for me .

When is the date for beta 3 and stable release ?

What about the speed ? Beta 2 is really slower than villain 3.4, do you think that you can make something about that ?

Thanks a lot.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] folgui:
My POP3 accounts work ok. No problem at all.

Device detected as Legend AND Verizon Droid

Today, I visited the dutch tech site Tweakers.net. This website features WURFL to adapt the layout to the user agent, for instance to apply a simpler stylesheet for mobile devices. Via http://tweakers.net/devicedetect I let the site detect my phone, running Villain4.0beta2 and got some interesting results, which I managed to copy/paste into Google Translate:

Your user-agent string:
[B]Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 2.1 en-us; HTC Legend Build/ERD79) AppleWebKit/530.17 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/530.17[/B]

You are recognized as:
[B]ID: verizon_droid_ver1_subua[/B]
[B]Brand: Verizon[/B]
[B]Model: Droid[/B]
Mobile Device?: yes
Control: touchscreen
(X) HTML support level: 4
Preferred markup: html_wi_oma_xhtmlmp_1_0
Javascript?: yes
[B]Resolution: 480x854[/B]

Looks like Villain4b2's browser is a mashup of the the Legend and the Verizon branded Motorola Droid, which is quite unexpected ;)

The problem is that the reported resolution is too high (Hero has only 320x480) so this may mean that other websites also won't render as they should.

Should I report this as a new issue on the bug tracker?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] drygmasken:
+1 I have the same problem with my e-mail.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] djoanes:
Does anyone notice that this ROM hangs much more often than the 3.4 rom? I don't know whether or not this was expected or not..

I nandroid backed up, wiped everything, flashed rom, rebooted, downloaded spare parts, set transitions to fast, rebooted, install my apps and rebooted. I then installed the update ...

Just curious if this is expected. Otherwise, this rom is awesome! Keep it up :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
This is already there, as the second issue posted actually :)

http://www.villainrom.co.uk/bug/view.php?id=2

Feel free to go in and confirm it. I have also noticed that I have issues on Villain 4 b1 where when I use text boxes, my touch is wrongly interpreted and ends up going in further up than I pressed (significantly, roughly 3/4 of an inch). I think this could be related.

Mine also shows as the Verizon Droid on 4 b 1, so I'm going to mark this as confirmed on the tracker. It also says my resolution is 480x854...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] salahag:
Bug fix files are same or?

Guys what's the difference between the attachments (fixes) in Post #1

(VillainROM4.0B2-GoogleSearchFix-signed.zip)

and Post #2

(VillainROM4.0RosieFix.zip)

?

Nathan has the same comment ontop of them and they seem to be identical but I checked file sizes in the zipped files and they are different. Plus they apparently have different names! :confused:

APPS2SD

I have around 80 apps installed and when I check my how space I have left on my nand it's only 40mb. Isn't there something wrong? Yesterday I had only 16mb left but now I have uninstalled some.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Nemo0815:
I'm using the JU one, thats the latest right?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] cyberden:
They are not the same! The first one is a fix to remove the graphic glitches (mixup images) and the second one fixes a FC issue when using the vanilla google search widget.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] karma0321:
The same here, i noticed these retry errors with full signal and reflashed the latest radio, nothing changed, they keep on but, at least, i have no problem with gps. Also it seems that after rebooting the first time with gps on to "activate" it, the battery started to drain dramatically, i could not swear on it though, because i did it two hours after flashing the ROM.. :D

Great work anyway! Thank you so much!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] djoanes:
Interesting... I was playing Homerun 3d and it crashed.. said a new sim card was detected... now my rom is spanish... Anyone else come across this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
No problems with refreshing (using however k-9-mail and not htc-mail).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] salahag:
Thanks cyberden for the confirmation ... it was just that both fixes (zip files) contain the exact same files (different sizes) so I assumed each time they are executed same files get replaced or something, but it looks like it's not that straight forward replacement process.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] BlueHawk:
No. By default, dalvik-cache is still stored on ROM. Apply the dalvik-cache to SD patch to move your dalvik-cache to SD (dalvik-cache holds all your processor-specific recompiles of your applications - so the more programs you have installed, even if the raw apks are stored on SD, the less ROM space you have). The patches are all available here - http://www.villainrom.kriev.com/

Reboot after applying the patch "Move Dalvik-Cache to Apps2SD Partition".
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] folgui:
Homersp, author of fix, says at post 1155 that the VillainROM4.0B2-GoogleSearchFix-signed.zip files has also his other Rosie fixes, so flashing the latest is enough.

About the gps, it is working, but does it mean that each time i need to use the gps i need to switch off my phone with the gps on ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] SpPes:
GPS

Its strange I know, but my GPS is working without reboot or battery drain.

First time I tested it yesterday it took a bit longer ... 5 minutes but it found my possition

today in 3 minutes

I used the GPS Status

please can somebody try with wifi, data and bt off? or its just me?

right now I'm on 4.0 beta 2 without wipe from 4.0

Hi guys,

I would like to install this rom, but i have a question.

I upload videos in 3GP format to picasa but can't play them. Can I change the format of the recorder?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Furious Yellow:
First of all, thanks for a great rom :)

But I've come across a big problem..

My phone chrashed and rebooted itself, and now it freezes at the lock screen.. It is totally unresponsive and I have to remove the battery to turn it off.. sometimes It gets to the "enter pin" screen before it freezes..

Is there something I can do to fix this or will I have to flash the rom again? It worked fine for about 10 hours before this chrash..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dipak2010:
happens to me too, no idea why?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dipak2010:

As quite new on Hero, Is the VillainROM 3.4! faster Rom or is it just my hero that go very slow on the Beta2 rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] BlueHawk:
Have you rebooted the ROM several times so that everything gets cached and works a bit faster?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] punkmonkey1984:
Does this have live wallpapers ? im thinking it does not as i cant find anything ?

This issue is now reported as fixed on the bug tracker but installing the Rosie patch did not fix it for me. My browser resolution is still detected as 480x854 and mobile web sites are switching between resolutions. I also tried wiping but no change. Any ideas? I can't report my continuing problems it in the tracker because the comments are closed on this issue...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ariozo:
Yes, have done a few reboots. But still quite slow for me tho. Takes a while to go into things and even scroll between screens. And not talk about change/edit a contact or so.

Myabe shall give VillainROM 3.4! a chanse see if i notice any change in speed on that Rom, or if it is my phone that just like to be slow atm. :)
