Thanks for the confirmation, glad to hear it's not just me. You never know with all the apps we install wether it's something I've got running or an issue on the rom.

Having looked at the logcat I 'Think' the error has something to do with this line:

W/ActivityManager( 89): Unable to start service Intent { cmp=com.android.music/.MediaPlaybackService }: not found

From looking on the interwebs this is a way of tying into the android default music player, but for some reason it's not finding it?

Could be wrong, don't know what to do from here though.

Cheers

Nobody have an idea what that ear-like icon is? http://img36.imageshack.us/img36/9895/snap20100330155515.jpg

I'm not sure if I'm just too stupid to google / use my phone or if that's an issue with the ROM.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Zero00SM:
may be it's a profile notification icon.Like: Vibrate, Silent or Loud?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] claudefrog:
Bluetooth Earpiece connected maybe?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mikael120:
I can understand not wanting to read through all the 55+ pages of this thread to see if somebody encountered your problem, but really? you know all that text in the first post explaining all known problems, maybe you should try actually reading it.

and sorry if i come off a a little rude but seriously, you are probably the 12'th person asking that question in this thread.

lol, that actually maybe me laugh :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] booster55:
Thought about those two possibilities too but I didn't change any profile-wise settings and everything seems normal there.

Bluetooth isn't even on, let alone connected. I think, I've never even once switched on Bluetooth on the phone since I don't need it.

edit: forgot to quote. It's @Zero and claudefrog of course ^^
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] steal:
Is there a solution to the dailer problem for numbers starting with a "+"??? Or can we expect a solution with the next release?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Zero00SM:
i had a similar problem in vil 3.4.

After unplugging the handfree the icon remained on.So it may be just a glich.Do you hear the sounds of the phone?

And another thing.Try to plug in the hand-free to see if another icon turn on.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bryanchapman9999:
Constanly syncing data

Hi,

Flashed this twice now. Having an issue where the sync icon just stays there. Doesn't seem to be passing data. All google contacts apeare to be there, as do email and calendar. Turned off syncing on all accounts - google, facebook and weather - still the same.

Anyone else have this?

It did it on 5 and 5.1

Cheers

Bryan
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] booster55:
Yes, I hear the sounds. No problems there.

If I plug in a hands-free-set, I get the normal headset icon which looks... well, like a headset. You know what I mean. :D

Unfortunately, I don't have a Bluetooth headset to test if the icon is related to that.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Zero00SM:
One more thing.Try to decrease the ringer volume from the volume down button until vibrate mode is activated.If the vibrate icon appears in the same place (and the weird one dissapears) it means the weird icon represents ringer active.

In my opinion...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] LuffarJoh:
seems like my fix only changed the fist '0'. Here's one that should fix '+' aswell. pls try it out.

made another change.

how about this:

D/InCallScreen( 3074): OoO before plus code ==+4670291xxxx
D/InCallScreen( 3074): OoO after plus code ==+4670291xxxx
V/PhoneUtils( 3074): OoO isEnable AutoPrepend(true)
D/InCallScreen( 3074): OoO after number Hyphenation ==+4670291xxxx

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] torespen:
Nice.. until final fix :) cudos man :)

On a note.. use the + handler to replace + with 00, and make a rule that says that every number starting with 00 should go by direct call. This prevents phonecard express to pop up that annoying menu asking You to choose :)

To all guys out there... This ROM is (at least on my phone) WAAAAY faster than 4.0b2 :D

THanks, yet another millions to Nathan for his work :) (and to all other involved in testing etc .) :)

LANGUAGES

Please someone can make a update file that can add more languages to this rom...

I Know that this rom is a CDMA port and peolple that use CDMA phones the language for it is english...that is ok.

But this rom is for gsm heros and I think this rom will be much more complete if that can reach all gsm hero users...And for many of this hero users I think they will prefere change the english language to their mother language (my case).

I know that is not big problem, but is something that annoying me, and I think that I am not the only one...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jvandiggele:
still have the 011 replacing the + in a dial string

hmmm, maybe we have to digg some deeper.....:mad:

Any number which starts with a + sign is replaced by 011 (after applying this patch and rebooting) (for instance +31 10 1111111 is replaced by 011 31 10 11111111 (looks almost binary :cool:))

should be somewhere...

Please help with some minor issues.

1) I have never seen any apn list , i always have to manually add my apn settings. 'Edge' would work on every rom that i have tried so far except this one for which i'm getting connection failed. Please help me sort this out.

2) Titanium Backup is stuck at Su permissions, it's a blank screen. No option for Always yes etc.

As for the rom , i'm loving it. Thank you for all your efforts. This rom has also miracally fixed the BOTTOM SCREEN PROBLEM that i was facing from last month. I used to have a responsive hero screen until recently the bottom of the screen became less responsive. I can confirm that this rom fixes the issue where as i tried going back to modaco 3.0, other roms etc but no luck.

fast and stable

its very stable, and its blazing fast, I tried using the nexus luncher and it worked great.

I also tried a few live wallpapers just for fun, and some of them was actually pretty stable, very slow tough and only works on the default android home screen.

and I think it looks great, hope you get the wifi working :)

note:I added live wallpapers and the nexus one launcher myself they are not included in the rom

wew that was really looking very very good. i will try it later...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] salahag:
This one Looks and feels great. But in addition to the things not working that has been reported I faced another problem.

I couldn't make local calls. I'm on a prepaid account and though I made sure I have credit I got a mesage from the operator that I didn't! Called them and they told me to enter numbers manually, which I did but got a FAX sound when I called a Mobile number. And noticed in the call history that there was a "1" at the beginning of the number!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arshad14:
Has anyone tried wiping the screen rotation in recovery to see if that helps with the accelerometer? I forgot to do that when flashing and was wondering if anyone could try that.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MrPadie:
I have played around a little with the WiFi files and settings, but still have no luck in fixing it.

However, there is something that bugs me. When reading the logcat, each time I want to activate WiFi, this is what gets printed:

E/vold ( 45): Unable to lookup media '/devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host/mmc0/mmc0:0001'
E/vold ( 45): Error processing uevent msg (Bad file number)
E/WifiService( 85): Failed to load Wi-Fi driver.
D/SettingsWifiEnabler( 385): Received wifi state changed from Enabling to Unknown

Now, I am not a very experienced developer yet, but what bugs me about this is that each time I try activate WiFi, it's looking for some media on the memory card, shown by "Unable to lookup media '/devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host/mmc0/mmc0:0001'". Does this perhaps mean anything?

Just trying to help :)

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:

Ok well, I've been at this fix all day long and I've finally done it!

This fixes the Phone dialer to:

- Not prepend 1

Good stuff guys!

what is the different between this?which one should i keep?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] obyn:
everything works except calling (07*** turns into 107***) and mms sending/recieving.

i used this for fixing the calling issue (just remount and push it into /system/app/).

and the mms fix is at villain wiki.

i added an entry there for swedish tele2 users also.

i used jonas enhanced htc_ime to get a swedish dictionary. this should be included in the rom i think. or at least as an optional update.zip

if you guys have problems installing, here's what i did;

downloaded the lowres version, removed both htc_ime.apk and clicker.apk via adb (remember to remount first), removed the entries for htc_ime and clicker in /data/system/packages.xml (adb pull; edit; adb push) and then rebooted into recovery, wiped dalvik, reboot, and then adb install the downloaded patched apks.

hope that helps somebody.

now i have a fully functional 2.1 hero rom! woot! :D

thanks nprussel and everybody who made the patches/fixes!

Dude, sorry but I have read this thread from post1 till now, this is what the first post says "I believe there’s also an issue with certain long telephone numbers that start with anything other than 0.

Why don't you stop bickering and moaning about everything and get on with it. Since the upload of 5.01 there hasn't been any mention about it. If there was I must have missed and I apologize for wasting your time reading my silly little post. I am sorry if I come accross as a bit annoyed, but I am.

just use adb (make sure Phone.apk is in samedir)

adb remount

adb push Phone.apk /system/app/Phone.apk

Hopefully this will help you, this was something i found on the VillainROM Forum from an0therus3r

Hope this helps

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Right. I can help with this :)

Browse to the folder containing the new apk file, and rename it to Phone.apk

Now take your obligatory nandroid backup you always do before faffing with your phone :)

Type 'adb remount'

Now type 'adb push Phone.apk /system/app'

Then type 'adb shell'

and then (don't type the # symbol- that indicates your shell)

# cd /system/app
# chmod 644 Phone.apk
# chown 0:0 Phone.apk
# reboot

And that's you.

Hope this helps, folks
