Very nice and Stable Rom!

Bugs i found:

You added Gallerie 3D and Live Wallpapers but no Launcher :D Which i would use? Anything 2.1 Compatible?

There are the normal Grafik Bugs in the Game exzeus but only legendroid rom fixed this yet.

Thanks for this Rom! Nice Work

I tried to install these files.

Pluginmanager no problem but friendstream can't install. Tried to find any more info on this but can't find anything in this thread.

Also tried to find the commands for pushing the friendstream.apk but i don't get it.

Can someone give me the right commands for pushing this file?

Or doesn't it make any difference. Will I still not be able to install it?

Would really like to have the widget working. Don't care if the app works thou.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JBNAquatics:
Okay very strange. First I couldn't install from Market after applying the apps2SD and then my phone hanged after applying the 3D gallery fix.

After a wipe and reapplying both the apps2sd and the 3D gallery fix, everything works now: market can download and install, 3D gallery with camera works. HOORAY!

Re: [ROM]05/04/10 - VillainROM(SprintPort)5.1: for GSM HERO - BETA

what are these fixes?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JBNAquatics:
The fixes enable apsp2SD and the gallery fix allow you to go to camera in the 3D gallery.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HomerSp:
Fixed the error: #1522
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] werziluk:
Lol sorry I know what they do im just trying to find them since the thread is full of all sorts of fix advise and im not sure which ones which.

Facebook syncing is still an issue for me, its either perma syncing or just syncing contacts and not the feed. Ive removed it from the accounts menu for now.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xxbabiboi228xx:
Confirming that the Gallery 3d camera tab fix works thanks for sharing your expertease Mr Homer

Also Confirming that i am not getting the perma sync i think this is the closest we are gonna get until the official Htc 2.1 release IMOP

Good Job Nathan thanks for your time and detication as always just one thing i am really missing is the friendstream widget very useful widget
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JBNAquatics:
Check out the post right before yours by Homer.

The apps2SD fix is this:

Here is the FIX FOR APPS2SD (confirmed by me):

Step 1:

adb remount

adb shell chmod 0755 /system/etc/init.d/*

adb shell mkdir /system/sd

Step 2:

Reboot

Step 3:

Enjoy

I was put off because people were still reporting errors, ill give it a try after doing a Nandroid backup. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, when these fixes are 100% confirmed think they need to be in the OP or in a future update.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] j0bro:
Sigh

Well, the pleasure didn't last very long on this ROM I must admit. Like in the previous versions, 3G/HSDPA connections are *very* flaky and don't work for me most of the time.

When I go to the testing menu (*#*#4636#*#*) and then to Phone Information, the ping test gives "Fail, cannot resolve IP address" or "unknown" most of the time. Something is seriously wrong with the low level connection setup I guess. 2G works flawlessly though. Sometimes all is well and fast for a minute or two and then suddenly everything times out again.

Anyone experiencing the same or knows a solution for this? Otherwise the ROM works quite well, all functionality is there!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
I have been having this problem with no ip as well.

I found that switching to "gsm only" for a short while then going back to "WCDMA" works though.

Your the first person not on orange UK to report this so I am glad it might not actually be a carrier problem and might actually be an underlying fault with the rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] PatcheZ:
Re: [ROM]05/04/10 - VillainROM(SprintPort)5.1: for GSM HERO - BETA

I only have 3g here for telus in canada, and reception is quite excellent where I am. Then again, it's either reception or no reception for me since no 2g.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] j0bro:
Really?

I thought a lot more people were having this issue but apparently not? It is buggin me already from VillainROM 5.x onwards. I guess the CDMA internals have something to do with it, this ROM just isn't suitable for GSM networks, although I am not sure whether 3G/HSDPA on CDMA is carried on the same protocols as is done on GSM. By trying to get this to work, I already found out that WCDMA is a synonym for UMTS/HSDPA, the terms we use in Europe for 3G and 3,5G.

What I also read, is that the latter technologies are incompatible with CDMA. I fear that the ROM is lacking some base functionality required to properly work with UMTS/HSDPA.

Are we on different bands, frequencies, carrier protocols maybe with regard to our fellow USA users? I hope to get a solution to this, or I will revert to a Legend ROM on which all works as it should.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RD1945:
First of all, thanks for this ROM.

This is a very fast ROM but I have a few problems with it.

First, the battery is like dead in 10 hours.

Second, there is a service running called HtcIQAgent and it keeps FCing.

Third, The process with bgp in its name keeps FCing (I think it has something to do with the calendar, don't know for sure because I clicked it away too fast).

The battery is a real issue here.

I know it is not the battery itself. If I flash the MoDaCo 3.2 ROM on it, it is fine. Maybe there is a process running all the time that kills the battery?

I know this is a BETA ROM and should expect bugs, but a battery drain like that?

I hope I'm not the only one with the battery problems and hope you can fix this.

P.S. I wiped everything (all the options in the menu) before I installed this ROM.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gu_de_o:
I have done that twice and it's not working for me. The apps are still installed on the phone
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] j0bro:
Affirmative!

I have the exact same issues as well. Battery drain as well as those processing FC'ing. Next to my 3G connection not working these are reason enough for me revert to another ROM again, sadly.

I think I'll stick with VillainROM 5.1 for today until a solution comes up or else I'm bailing out. Sorry to say, cause the functionality and speed are great for this ROM!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jayw08:
I agree, all credit to the dev but apps2sd isnt working, my 3G/HSPDA barely works (downloadin apps etc) i dont know whether it is related by i am having issues with some contacts not receiving my texts.

Can't get weather not only for "Current location", i.e. I can only get weather for "current location", when I'm trying to add some location to the list I get FC of the weather app.

Moving Apps to SD after the fact?

Hi guys,

Im using Villain v4 and have a constant "e! Low on space" notification. I have only 16mb on the system memory, I had thought villain was a2sd from the getgo, but i guess it needs the update.zip applied.

Now its too late, ive installed all my apps, configured them etc... big question,

Is there an easy way to move them from internal memory to SD? Or will I have to uninstall and reinstall, or reflash.

Thanks,

Mark.

Yeah, but realize now that it moght have been for something else :P But cant hurt to try :D lol

Lenny, I am on Orange UK and just tested this, I got a pass on the ping test so not sure if the problem is down to the ROM or the carrier.

Nandroid Backup

Has anyone done a nandroid backup from this rom? I getting an error message: - "Error : Run 'nandroid-mobile.sh' via adb!"

I'm using Amon Ra Recovery 1.6.2.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] krypta:
Just put in the USB-Cable so the device can charge! Then it should work!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arturrro:
nandroid backup only works for me without the ext
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] callummr:
This shouldn't be to do with the ROM. Low charge can cause that, amongst other things.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] theadmiralcs:
Re the 3G/HSDPA connection bits. I rebooted my phone and mine came back on. If I disable it then it doesnt seem to want to reenable using the widget, going to Airplane mode and back OR through the Settings menu.

Weird.

Charging the phone now then going to do a battery test :)

Looks good so far...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dglockitt:
Nandroid Backup

It's not low charge I'm currently at 100%. Will try without ext and see if that works.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Basically what Orange told me the other week when I phoned them about the problem was that for some strange reason (possibly the rom somehow?) my phone was connecting to two radio towers instead of the usual one. What they reccomended is turning the radio off (airplane mode or turn off and take out sim card) for 30 seconds or more this resets the sim connection and it then should reconnect back to the one required tower.

This may be the same problem for anyone having issues with 3g, I now find mine works most of the time but after prolonged connection to wifi without any 3g connection I get issues again.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dglockitt:
Nandroid Backup

Confirmed. Nand backup works but NOT Nand + ext backup as selected from the menus in Amon Ra Recover 1.6.2. Will this effect the backup?

Thanks arturrro for the hint!

Device: Htc Hero

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hanserson1:
check your sdcard. It might be full.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ratson:
is this a changed version? or just a local apk?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] an0therus3r:
Have you checked settings?

Open weather app, men for settings, change temp scale.

Open settings, date and time, change format.

Grab freindstream from 4.0 beta2 and push to your phone ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
Just a local apk mate.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dpi295:
Well, same here. Rewiped everything and still hanging.

Any fix?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] aroaros:
+1 same here
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
I will add extra tweaks/customisations later.

I will also sort the missing files such as friendstream
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] an0therus3r:
Nope.

Check bug tracker for know bugs.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] drygmasken:
Fantastic, makes it so much easier.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dpi295:
Okay apparently the freezing problem was caused by my sd card. Remove the sd card and reboot. it should do the trick
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shaxted:
The issue with +1 being inserted is a rather intriguing & annoying issue. All of my contacts are from Exchange and mostly configured with +44 etc. Looking through the phone options,

It looks as if the NBPCD settings could be changed it might resolve the issue, settings found "Settings > Call > NBPCD" however, if I attempt to change/add anything, it force closes.

NPRussell, I think a few of us would appreciate if you could take a look & see if you can figure out what's causing this issue which is otherwise hampering my user experience with otherwise what I consider I damn fine, fast, feature complete ROM! Awesome work with all the hardware fixes, all seem fine so far.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sadape:
I did. FC. Boot, wipe Dalvik-cache and still FC.

Tried swapping FriendStreamWidget too.

Just looked strange and still didn't work.

Thanks anyway.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
Just hang fire on the FS apk. I will sort it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Leeejohn:
There were more Mail Widgets within the Beta 2 ROM. There is 1 mail Widget now :(.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nprussell:
I'll look, but it's not something I have a lot of experience with. I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction.

Do you know if is it possible to get a different lock screen? I mean a lock screen like non-sense roms (unlocking left to right and muting audio right to left).

Do you have any information about that ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] colonel_lp:
great job, but:

i still have the HTC facebook sync persisting, even when autosync is disabled and sync account unchecked... the app just seems to keep auto starting itself... i even followed the advice of sync google first, reboot, add facebook account, then sync......

also few problems with creating events from htc calender, when you try to add an event for a day, the date is wrong.... also creating recurrent events have caused odd double events on certain days....

I installed 5.1 fresh from a full wipe.....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] guitarist7:
First boot...here we go!.....

Edit: took 6 mins to boot, and another 2 for the setup screen to load...

As a general forum opinion, which do you all think is the best theme?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kamirza:
5.1 rom

Nice one. Still cant access the favourite group. This has been persisting in all the 5 roms. It would be nice to have the HTC widgets otherwise the idea of sence UI dies. The dial pad being black was nice. Speed no doubt is better without the glitches. Thanks. Hope to see the complete one soon.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Gawis:
hi richardtrip,

is it possible that this package was broken by Villain 5.1 update?

I wiped and flashed 5.1 then flashed this package again and restored TunnelDroid with Titanium backup

it now stays stuck on "Connecting"

or did I mess up again somewhere :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] claudefrog:
Has anyone managed to get Frienstream installed and working?

If so, can you post details please.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] guitarist7:
Villain 5.1

SenseVillain 5.1

Black-Eclair v1.4

Which would you guys recommend?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
I like the sense villain theme, although I also don't mind standard sense :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] j0bro:
Sorry I forgot to mention, but I have the same as yours: 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26.

Something is changed over time which breaks all connections on a low level. I highly suspect it to be the GSM tower subscription that is refreshed; as everyting works smoothly whenever I disable/enable my data connection by long pressing the End button.

I have been meticulously examinging the LogCat output but there is simply too much going on to really spot something peculiar.

I have discovered quite a number of other bugs though, but that is beyond my scope here ;)

Google Maps from the Market seems to be versioned towards the Sprint network and is multitouch as well, interesting.

Sigh.

I think I let it alone for a little now, my brain hurts!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sampy14:
i cant see 'top paid' button in the market! has anybody got the same problem?

download something and it should fix itself, alternatively reboot your phone and try again.

Were you able to view paid apps before? Because I had to use Market Enabler to get access to view paid apps.

Hi,

Does anyone experiences FC on the signal? After about an hour, the phone starts to have FC unknowingly on the signal which it will be reset or reboot and connect. it just keeps going and going.

Did I miss any post on this?

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sampy14:
im able to view paid apps. Just the 'top paid' button is missing. I also find the market really slow on loading pages. :)

For me, the button is available. However as you said, the loading of pages is kind of slow. But it happens to me occasionally.
