[Hero CDMA Android Development] RamboDroid:
love the ROM all is well for me

For those who have problem with the phone lag or dialer lag make sure if you are using a task killer that you have both the dialer and the contacts exempted from being killed. Cuz i have notice that with incoming calls that are in my contacts they tend to be the ones that lag and unknown contact don't which seem to makes sense as it tries to put contact info for incoming calls.

I am not a pro just some thing that i have observed.

How in the world do you people get so much battery life....i guess its where i live i dont have the greatest service and the most battery life i get is 9 hours....and thats on all the ROMs I've tried (Darch's, Fresh, Damage, ghil)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thematrixkid17:
Task killers are useless, and harmful.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] thematrixkid17:
It has a lot to do with service. I live on the 10th floor of a building, 1/2 mile and line-of-sight away from another 10 story building which has my tower on top of it. I always get full bars in my room. Last night I flashed my phone at 5 AM. 12 hours later, 80% battery left. (i'm also on the andia battery, but it's just like stock capacity anyway)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] RamboDroid:
i am not getting all tge apps in tge market like i have on other roms is there a quick fix for that.

No fix right now that I know of. I don't think very many are missing though. I've never come across one that I couldn't find that I was looking for. You could always look to see if you can find the apk somewhere else
[Hero CDMA Android Development] EvanWilson:
Is there a way to change the grayish app drawer arrow to the one from Fresh 2.0d?

Besides that great ROM :)

I was looking for a good one

Question

Hey, so I really like this ROM, and a while back I set my phone back to Stock due to crazy Issues I've been having with the custom roms, but what my question was if I rooted my phone again would I be able to get the Footprints app installed with this rom? I was going to wait until the officail release from sprint but at this point that day doesn't seem like it's every going to come, and that app is basically a make it or break it for me. Sorry for the essay lol..but yeah

Edit: Also is the camera working? I assume it is because it's not listed in the bugs section but I'd like to be sure.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] EvanWilson:
You can get Footprints here:

(Credit to origins81 for uploading these)

In the rar you get Footprints.apk, which you can put on the sdcard and use a file manager to install. And yes the camera works for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] computerkid23:
loving your rom bro but is there anyway i can take out the vanilla lock screen not a fan of it at least until we can set wallpapers to em......thanks in advance
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aauussttiinn88:
anyone know how i could get the darchvanilla aosp-ekse dialer in this along with the complete aosp icons and contacts...i tried just taking the apks out but that didnt work...purely cosmetical cause this rom is by far one of the most stable roms i have used :cool:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Noirad:
Thank you! I just downloaded the folder unziped it and put it on to my sd card,I am able to negate to the .apk an get past the installing screen but once it finishes it says n was not installed each time, I have unknown sources turned on and I tried rebooting my phone know any other fixes?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thematrixkid17:
I may make update.zip to revert this if I have time this weekend.

You can just adb push them over, but the reason I didn't include them is that you can't remove the HTC versions, so I see no point in cluttering up the ROM with multiple applications that do (almost) the same thing.

Try 'adb push'ing it to /system/app
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aauussttiinn88:
yea i feel that...like i said i knew it was something that was strictly cosmetical...i always forget i have root explorer lol so my bad for the clutter...but i seriously havnt had one single problem with this rom and its has been about 24 hours besides the nexus mod lwp they have been sticking ever since...really dont see what you could update to make this rom any better matrix....but holla at me if you need someone to test anything bro...cause me and you got the same tastes i LOVE this rom oh and battery life it damn good too even with lwp :cool:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] XxsydenxX:
This rom is great. I love how light weight and upgradable it is.

I have made some changes to my rom however

I've replaced Launcher.apk, with Launcher2.apk, It may take up a bit more ram, but I payed for the ram right? Why not use it?

I'm visually impaired though, the font is difficult to read, and honestly i'd prefer if the bar at the top was black.

I'm able to change this through metamorph right? Would anyone mind helping?

Still...great rom so far, and it doesn't murder my battery life.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bretwalters13:
This ROM needs more love. I've flashed everyrom since the hero was first rooted and I have to say this ROM is my favorite. Everything has worked for me out of the box. Not one problem. Thanks so much matrix, this is great :)

If you are questioning flashing this, do it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JakeCP:
Anybody else having problems with VVM??? I used the additional "Add Sprint Visual Voicemail" and I still have the same problem... the message the program sends to activate it isn't going through for some reason.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] AboveUnrefined:
Awesome

This is my favorite so far, thanks for your work!

The only issue I've had so far is the touch screen flipping out on me (I posted this in another thread because I think it's due to the new radio out there since it happened to me in other ROMs as well...)

Thanks again - I love it!

[EDIT]

Just voted no on Rosie. It's dead 50/50 yes/no -- I wouldn't waste my time to add it to your ROM, if others want Rosie they can get a different ROM...

do

has anyone gotten the live wallpapers to stick? Mine keep going away. I have wiped and reflashed it twice now as well as going into spare parts and selecting to save home in memory. It just reverts back to normal wallpaper.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thematrixkid17:
Sorry, I didn't have any decent amount of time over the weekend, I was 600 miles out of town at a wedding. I'll work on this tomorrow for you.

Edit: on second thought, you should be fine just by pushing over the HTClockscreen.apk. I don't want to complicate this ROM too much by adding tons of options.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] iamjfarrell:
ok. i think the problem was the nexus mod live wallpaper. other ones seem to stay now. thanks. amazing rom

[Hero CDMA Android Development] DarkPhoenix:
Hey thematrixkid17 great job on this rom. I've always been a big fan of the Sense ui but I have to say that I really like the ui on your rom. All of the wallpapers I've downloaded seem to work fine so far. Just wanted to say thanks and keep up the good work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Visionikz03:
The phone doesn't sleep for some reason while charging but as soon as it's off the charger it will sleep. Verified this today. Strange that i've never seen it in other 2.1 roms. Oh well not really a big deal...

[Hero CDMA Android Development] raynda:
This is an excellent ROM, just wanted to take time to thank the OP for this. I've really enjoyed DC and DL, and I've been jumping between the two of them for weeks now, but I installed Matrix a few days ago and haven't had the urge to go to any other.

Nothing has crashed, no bugs, everything works, and it's fast and the LWPs are pretty.

EXCELLENT WORK! Please continue working on this one, I'll be checking for updates! :)

So I restored my most recent nandroid backup and everything seems to work except when I try to download or update anything in the Market it just keeps saying "Starting Download" and never does.

Is there anyone here who has the original turkish shipped rom. i want to flash it back to the original rom or somehow solve this issue. thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] thewooleymammoth:
android appears essentually a linux distro aimed at phones (maybe i am wrong?). is it possible to add a repository to the market? say for apps that are only ment for certain phones. What i mean to say is:

Could we have a repository for kaiser phones where apps are designed for or modified for kiaser?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] dcarr622:
Most apps run fine it seems to me, what exactly are you getting at?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] thewooleymammoth:
for example on debian. There is a normal repository where you can find all the free programs that the debian community recommend. However since the debian devs tend to be open source nazis (they only include things that are open source) people commonly add ubuntu repositories (where things are allowed that arnt open source, like flash10).

In relation to android:

while alot of the apps run great on my phone, many apps die or dont work at all. I have seen, on this forum, requests on this forum for certain apps, that dont work, to be ported. which leads me to believe that its possible to modify those programs available in market to work for our phones.

In conclusion:

I propose the idea of creating a server which would host the android programs that have been modified to work for certain phones. ex: kaiser. On my kaiser i could browse regular apps on the android market oooor check the kaiser repository for apps that are ment for kaiser and are therefor garunteed to work.

maybe its not possible, maybe its just a bad idea. But i thought i would throw the idea out there.

(please let me know if its still not clear. Im kinda hungover and only got a few hours sleep).

also if this is possible i would be willing to help out with programming the app and i may be able to get a server going for it. (although im new to java so i would definitly need help)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] justinisyoung:
okay, so we all know that the 3d gallery app had some issues when you rotated the screen. it'd get all messed up and stuff cause the resolution of that was for the nexus one's screen(a lot larger than the hero). so i'm assuming that because of that, a lot of people would just rather use HTC's album app(just an assumption)

but, i realized when i was testing out darch's aosp rom(darchdroidv2), the gallery app rotated fine. so i'm just posting it here so anybody who wants it can have it :)

now, obviously, this isn't my work or anything. i don't know whether or not darch edited the apk to make it rotate right, or whether he got it from somewhere else, but still, the credit goes to him for putting it there. i just found it :P

attached below.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Tikerz:
It's something in the ROM that makes it rotate fine, not the .APK. I've been installing the same .APK in every ROM I've tried and the first one I noticed where rotation works was the new DamageControl. Rotation with this .APK is still messed up in DarchLegend.

[HD2 General] berndhufmann:
Hi how can i share via wifi pc directories with my hd2? Setup/instructions? programs? Thanks!
[HD2 General] gaiden0000:
You can map drives over to your HD2 in order to view video's and play mp3's ect... Get Resco Explorer ( http://www.resco.net/pocketpc/explorer/ ) as it has a Network Browser that will allow you to view your network and map drives.
[HD2 General] berndhufmann:
running resco explorer seen network item but i couldn´t get connection to my pc name and a shared directory (ex. \\pcname\$c) must i disable firewalls or anything else to get communication established?
[HD2 General] gaiden0000:
Normally you'll need to disable the firewall on your system (if it's running windows firewall as it does sometimes affect the connection).

Just double checking the method that you are using to connect, with Explorer open do the following:

Click on Menu - File -Network - Map Drive. Now give a few moments and it should show you a list of "Computers Near Me". Once you see your computer you should be able to click the plus sign next to it and automatically see all of it's shares.

Also just to double check, you should be trying to connect to "\\pcname\C$" and not \\pcname\$C" although i'd recommended not going for the root of your drive and just mapping a different shared folder.
[HD2 General] cbkihong:
I am sharing files from a NAS over LAN too. Using Resco Explorer 2010 to browse the files works great for me. Actually, being able to browse Windows share is the reason I paid for Resco Explorer.

If you have another PC, try confirming you can really access the share from another Windows PC.
[HD2 General] berndhufmann:
Thanks a lot i will give a try and response with results ;-))
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
I use resco, and although I can manually map shares buy typing in \\comp\drive, and they stay mapped and work fine, I've never yet managed to get resco to actually list the shares in the my network section. no idea why, all my machines are discoverable etc.
[HTC Excalibur] notreally:
I saw a Visual Voicemail .cab that was ripped from the (touch screen) T-Mobile HD2's ROM and it got me curious...

I did some googling and found that T-Mobile's official 6.5 upgrade for the Dash 3G (non-touch QVGA, just like our beloved Excalibur) also came with visual voicemail. TMo's update was actually good for something, ha.

I extracted the VVM package from T-Mo's official Dash3G 6.5 ROM and compared those files with the files in the HD2-ripped .cab.

The registry settings and .dll's (down to the MD5 checksum) are the same. The only difference is, of course, the .exe.

Attached are the QVGA non-touch Smartphone vvm.exe from T-Mobile's 6.5 Dash 3G ROM and the .cab from the HD2, which was originally posted in thread #613855 (can't post URLs sorry.)

DIRECTIONS:

Install the .cab, delete /Windows/vvm.exe & replace it with this non-touch vvm.exe, then soft reset (reboot.)

For Visual Voicemail to work, you must have Visual Voicemail on your plan. You have to call 611 (say "tech support") and tell them to add Visual Voicemail (free) to your plan. If they struggle with that, tell them you have a Dash 3G. Others have had success by logging into My T-Mobile, temporarily changing their phones to Dash 3G/Bold 9700/Android, and then adding Visual Voicemail to their services. (You can then change back to a Dash if you'd like.)

ISSUES:

1. Getting CHome plugin to open Visual Voicemail app instead of dialing voicemail (Not sure if that's normal behavior. In any case, opening VVM instead would be the preferred behavior. Registry/dll edit hints?)

2. Dual Voicemail notification icons. It keeps the greyscale/standard one and adds its own colorful icon. See screenshot in post below... I'd like to disable one.

Just my small contribution to the community that's given me so much.
[HTC Excalibur] notreally:
Screenshots

One of the cool features is you can save the voicemails locally as .amr files.
[HTC Excalibur] notreally:
If somebody wants to make a cleaner .cab, here's the EXT package extracted from the ROM in a .zip... Lemme know if you need any other files.

\EXT\Captain\21854\Captain_External_Packages\VVM_1_0_9_RAW1\

Next project: HTC Youtube, much better than Youtube's official app.
[HTC Excalibur] C0dy:
This is pretty cool, good job OP!
[HTC Excalibur] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
Hmmm...I would LOVE to use this with my DASH, unfortunately, I don't use T-Mobile voicemail...I have Google Voice.

BUT THIS GIVES ME AN IDEA...

If i have time, I'll try to see if it is possible to make a Visual Voicemail for GoogleVoice! *Now i am off to google like crazy!*
[HTC Excalibur] ramfan43:
question about this....

ok, I downloaded both files and ran the cab file and then deleted the vmm.exe file and replaced it with the QVGA non-touch screen one. Then changed my phone from a regular Dash to a Dash 3G on the t-mobile site. I then added the free voicemail to my account.

Does it take a while for this service to activate? When I hit the vmm icon it tries to activate the service and I see the little circle thing working and I get a text message with a bunch of gibberish I am not sure what it is... some technical stuff.. The circle thing keeps coming up and eventually says my account has not been upgraded and asks if I want it to upgrade the account.

I say yes but it tries and cannot even access it even though I have the WiFi active... It says I do not have access to Visual Voicemail. Please upgrade your phone... it has an upgrade option that shows up in the bar on the bottom left of the phone I hit that and it tries to go the web site but cannot.. Do you have to have a data plan for this service to work? I just use WiFi and do not have a data plan or want one... please help if able, Thanks!
[HTC Excalibur] notreally:
Did you reboot after installing the cab?

I got a text like that from "129" before I rebooted.
[HTC Excalibur] ramfan43:
yes I did reboot after installing the cab and what I stated is what happened after I rebooted..
[HTC Excalibur] notreally:
Can you try grabbing "sms_setup.dll" from "EXT package VVM_1_0_9_RAW1.zip" (its inside the "files" folder) and placing it in /Windows

The HD2 cab doesn't seem to include that one, hmm.
[HTC Excalibur] ramfan43:
I did what you stated and still cannot get the rascal to work..
[HTC Excalibur] notreally:
In case anybody cares, I figured out what was causing the issue: you need to temporarily disable SMS Bubbles to complete the initial setup. It's intercepting the 129 text before VVM.exe can read it.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] rondo0:
Hi,

I would like to map different phone/mail/SMS and callendar applications under notification icones in MaxManila v2,7 as well as in slider bar icones. I suspect that there are some register keys, but I do not know where.

Is there possibility to get rid off "contacts" screen in manila - just switch it off?

thanks
