I can confirm that moving the dalvik cache to the SD card will indeed enable the App2SD. Just did it myself. Also, in my previous flash, I did ban the sense and htc lockscreen and enabled JIT but never saw the speed improvement in linpack, plus after an hour the lag was unbelievable so I would say that the JIT is not functional with this ROM.

I am running the 768 OC kernel - works with my phone on other OC roms so I suspect it should be fine on this one.

I am going to try and run it without OC widget and see how it works.

Thanks DC and TrevE

Here is a metamorph file to do the Rosie Remap. I suggest you make a backup of your Rosie.apk first. I am not responsible if you mess it up!

htc battery widget

As I stated on my previous post I downloaded the htc battery widget but as like others it seems to not install.

Just by browsing with root explorer in the cache folder I found the "com.htc.rosiewidgets.battery.apk" with time and date that matches when I downloaded the widget...so there It was.

Now I pressed install and got the following message "There is a problem parsing the package"

I am no developer so I dont have a clue what parsing means.

If someone out there knows what this means and know how to fix it then that might be a solution that some people are looking for when trying to get more of the HTC widgets.

anyone up for the challenge?

does moving dalvik to sd enable apps2sd or just free up more space? i think it's the latter, no?

[Hero CDMA Android Development] roadster92:
Apps2SD is default with this ROM. Moving Dalvik cache to SD will free up the internal memory "NAND" (Unless you have a lot of apps that needed more space than the internal memory (NAND) available, it is suggested that leaving Dalvik cache in the internal memory (NAND) for better performance). By freeing up internal storage memory (NAND) does not help the free up the memory (RAM) that apps and process used. NAND and RAM are two different things.

cool +1.

Now can you teach me to do that?:D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Moguledyouth:
One last thing... I ended up having to nandroid back to my previous rom, I thought the rom was great, no problems flashing etc. Then all of a sudden, it wouldn't recognize my SD card at all, it would say unavailable. I tried rebooting, re-seating the card etc. and it would not come back, I thought maybe my card got toasted, so I went into Recovery and it works fine, I restored my previous Rom nandroid and have had no subsequent issues with my SD card. All in all, I think there are too many little gremlins in this rom still unfortunately...

Did you have the USB cable plugged in at the time ? You can try shutting the phone down and reseating the sd card back in to make sure its not just a problem with the contacts of the card.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] get-Apache:
Good question, I just looked. In root explorer, I can see a path /system/sd/app and it contains googlevoice.apk, linpack.apk, overclock.apk and rootexplorer.apk. So I assume that it is working.

After today's flashing, I can see 32:20 up time and 20:17 awake time so I have to assume that it is not awake 100%. I did have a bad config after flashing 2.09.1 last night and this AM it was showing something awake time much less than uptime so I don't think wake lock is a problem with this ROM.

Noob question?

How can I clear system memory and internal memory?

I am running both at 30mb out of 160 and 170 respectively.

Battery

Is it normal that every time you reboot the phone the battery seems to loose a significant amount of charge? I know/assume that booting up the phone takes some juice but how much is is too much?

Goes from 30 to 15 percent....as an example
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jcf304:
What kind of numbers are you guys seeing using standard room without the setcpu parameters set ( like this rom here) and then having jit or setcpu ? this Rom here shows 2.2-2.9. I havent tried setcpu or jit on this rom yet but I tried it on a few others and was bascially getting the same mflop values ? This room works sweet.

What happened to the theme server ? I don't see that listing anymore? Are the themes version specific ?

To free internal memory (NAND): Enable Apps2SD and Enable Move Dalvik Cache to SD

To free system memory (RAM): Use third Party app like Autokiller to kill tasks or just let your phone (android system) manage itself.

just an FYI/easy way to find out if you have apps2sd:

i'm removing dalvik cache to sd. from all i've read, it can burn out sd cards. i only have a class 4. i read class 6 is best. i don't care if my internal memory is low if i have apps2sd
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jay24k:
Anyone find any themes that work on this? I get rosie error and launcher error on the black and blue one.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jcf304:
apps2sd is your best bet once you enable dalvik to sd. There is a app I use called mini info that I ran during my tests. It can sit on your main screen as a widget. Typically, it would be like 80 or 90 percent, depending on how much activity with programs the phone has had, at first. Then after the Dalvik move it goes to 140 and 150. There are tons of apps that can give you the memory stats but this has been the one more convenient as it sits on the startup screen

Worked great until the first reboot

I was very eager to try 2.09.01 and was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to flash this rom and use Titanium Backup to restore most of my apps and data. No boot-loops, no problems installing at all. A job well done!

Unfortunately, once I restart my phone, crazy things would happen to my phone. I've done 2 wipes and 2 installs, both times everything worked great until I rebooted. And yes, I have the lastest version as of this post date.

1. I loose just about all HTC-based widget. I only checked the ones I use (clock, weather, calendar, system, and a few others) and they're all gone. I can't even add them back in. DCConfig is still using all of its default settings so I don't think its banning anything.

2. Only after the 1st reboot, I can no longer install apps from the market. I can see apps and get all the way to clicking install. Apps keep erroring out while downloading. I did make sure I had connectivity through Opera - and the fact that I can wander around the market confirms I am connected to a mobile network.

3. After every reboot, the animated "Loading" runs for a good minute or two, even when I simply do back to back reboots.

4. After every reboot, I keep getting the same missed call notification even though I clear it.

5. I too get the sync symbol but it goes away after about 30 seconds. But, it keeps coming back after every reboot. If I manually sync gmail, calendar and/or contacts, the sync symbol does not appear so I'm not sure what's syncing. FYI, I'm too old to be You-Twit-Faced so none of those apps are ever used.

OK, enough of my rambling. I'm back to using the Damageless RUU leak where everything pretty much worked well. Misc. issues with Rom Manager and Wifi-tether but nothing too bad.

I'm not asking for solutions or personal assistance - I am just sharing my experiences. I know there are probably solutions up and down this post but with 5000+ pages, its pretty difficult for me to search effectively. Plus, I'm too lazy :D

I really hope Damageless and TrevE have fun and a lot of success with their EVO roms. I'll get one as soon as 4G is in my city (supposedly by the end of this year). Therefore, my hero is just a temporary phone so I'm happy without 2.09.01.

Good luck to all!

i also have two question of my own, how do i run dcpowertop and do i need to? and next question is what is the name of that annoying NAVIGATOR app, im trying to remove it but i cant find out whats the name of the apk.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aisseleacim03:
Thanks.

To move the Dalvik Cache to SD you have to have apps2sd right?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DesJR9:
Help!!!!!!! I'm Stuch in a boot loop with the animated sprint "Welcome to NOW" and the "Htc quietly brillant" boot screen what do i do???
[Hero CDMA Android Development] roadster92:
Apps2SD is enable by default with this ROM. Dalvik cache to SD was not enable by Default. You can fo to DC config and check to see if they are turn ON :)

I have not tried Dalvik cache to SD without enable Apps2SD so I can't answer your question. But I believed that you could move the dalvik cache to SD and not move Apps2SD (All it does is created a symlink point to the EXT partition for whichever you want to do). However, it does not make sense when you move the dalvik cache to SD and not moving the Apps to SD :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jcf304:
Yes. You can do this from DCconfig or ADB. Whatever your more comfortable with.

First boot up take a while ... sometime 10 minutes.

Did you wipe all 3 items (Data / Dalvik / EXT)?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
Clock/Alarm troubles

Use the vanilla clock, in the past it was banned fsr you will find it in a folder in either system/app/dcbanned or data/app/dcbanned. Move it install it, forget the htc alarm clock, you will never be able to turn it off.

A2SD Working or not?

If you have apps in system/data/app/ A2SD is working.

If all your apps are in system/app/ then no it is not working.

It's that simple, don't bother looking at available space in settings.

It seems to be, I typically lose 10% min when I boot first thing in the AM. Midday boots sometimes take only 2% but sometimes I've seen my battery drop 2% from the boot then another 18% immediately after it :eek:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DesJR9:
i didn't wipe anything. i didn't think i needed to because i was just coming from DC v2.09. And did anyone elses phone go through a boot loop then finish correctly???
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aisseleacim03:
I always wipe no matter where I am coming from:D

And for me the phone did a double boot, the first one the clock was telling me that it was 3 am (when it was only 11 pm) then it went into another boot, faster this time and it popped up right this time.

Has anyone using this ROM has run the dc kernel to see it it works and in doing so have you run the wifi tether to see if it doesn't freeze when trying to stop it?

That was my issue when running 2.08.1 and the oc kernel and the reason for me going back to "stock" kernel.

If it works I would love to oc this ROM but I use the tehter a lot and having to stop it by rebooting my phone is really not an option.

Thanks

[Hero CDMA Android Development] MoseIlla:
I flashed it last night and I had an EXT4 partition and it wouldn't boot past the HTC splash, so after spending 15-20 minutes trying other things (and letting the thing sit for like an hour) I decided to check to see if formatting the thing to EXT3 would help; and it did. After that and clearing the data for HTC Sense, everything has been working fine and super snappy.

I'm using the OC kernel and I have the OC Widget which is set to 245/653 when the screen is on and 160/480 when the screen is off.

Here's a suggestion and I'm going to seem like a **** for saying it, but if there's important steps to getting this thing to work properly after the initial boot, you might want to edit them into the first post. For example; Clearing the data in HTC Sense. It also may help to mention that the ROM is only EXT3 compatible.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
Agreed. In case you all havent figured out this isnt compatible with ext4, it supports ext3, so if you came from darchdroid or another rom with ext4, format your sd card in your comp first(dont have to but i always do), and go to recovery and repartition your card and get it back up to ext3. Also im using the Toast OC kernel 768 and it works fast and flawless. you guys should give it a shot. Also i run an app called task manager(with the green little android) it auto kills any apps in background and keeps your phone running smooth. it works better than autokiller to me. I also suggest using setcpu but i guess we have our own prefs. As long as the setcpu read me file is on the root of your sd card and its not mounted to the comp. Hit the very last option in setcpu it will detect your read me file. once done i scaled mine to 710 max, and 245 min. Works flawless

Here attached are the three files, the damage768 is a flashible zip you need to flash in recovery, the setcpu txt leave it on root of sdcard, and the setcpu needs to be installed with a file manager like astro or whatnot. I take no credit im just sharing some apk's. Once again you dont have to do this, im just sharing how i use MY phone and i have no issues.

I was running the DC OC'd kernel, but there is something with that kernel that doesn't work with the BT in my car. :( The same problems happens running Fresh Toast roms or adding the DC OC kernel to any DC Rom's. The stock HTC kernel works okay. So its a toss up..fast overclocking or BT.

I can't change my lockscreen everytime i try i get (the application settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Does any body know what i need to do?:o nevermind i figured it out. with absolutely no help from anybody on here. thanks guys thanks for the friggin help
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LARPkitten:
Had the same problem, don't panic. What I did to fix:

Pull battery

Restart in bootloader

Wipe data

Wipe Dalvik-cache

Wipe SD:ext

Flash Update.zip

Reboot via bootloader

Have patience

It worked. Apparently what causes the loop-de-loop is the failure to wipe the SD:ext... Try it and see if that fixes it!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MoseIlla:
When I was using Fresh Toast (whatever the latest version is) and I used SetCPU my phone app would crash regularly and it was annoying. I looked it up and found that people were having similar issues and they were fixed by using OC Widget, so I downloaded OC Widget and the problem happened a let less frequently, in fact, it has only happened twice since then. It would have happened 10+ times in the same period of time.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
yeah the fresh roms both for me had issues with setcpu with force close thats why im damagedconrolled buddy and fresh toast is full of force close issues more than any rom i used, not knocking fresh and toast they are geniuses, using setcpu on damage i have yet to encounter a force close with anything bro.. as long as your not pushing the processor to hard(leaving it around 710 or 691 max, and 245 min) you shouldnt have an issue. Also i know your prolly not a noob but if you dont have that read me file on your sdcard and your using setcpu it will crash cause you have an overclocked kernel and your not overclocking it. lol idk if that makes sense.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xxxk15:
i havent used dc updater in a long time. so all i have to do is download the new update and shut off my phone and the updated rom should be applied?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
yeah it should be. just hit apply now and it will take you to recovery and flash that sucker :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LARPkitten:
When it downloads, it will automatically pop up with prompts to apply and restart. Fairly intuitive, it does all the work for you. Just have patience.

Mine failed first time, see previous page to see how I fixed it. Good luck!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MoseIlla:
You don't need the included SetCPU.txt if you manually set the frequencies you'd like to use. I've avoided using the max clock speed since it's not good for the processor. It can cause overheating and instability.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
or you can do it the easy way with no fail just download it from the link on the first page, and put it on the sdcard and flash in recovery. easy as pie. sometimes the updater fails idk
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
why wouldnt you need the txt, for some reason when i dont have the txt it just stops at the 528 max?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] roadster92:
If you use the SetCPU 1.54 and choose auto detect when first execute the program then you would not need the text file
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
oh i guess im old school im still rocking out with setcpu 3 not 4. thanks anywayz
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aisseleacim03:
another update...

My battery run out form all the playing around so I went to charge my phone. In the mean time I had read that some users where having issues when rebooting the phone so I decided to try it.

I reboot the phone and although it started well but right away the weather app lost its sync. I work in a place with very low signal so maybe...

Then I tried the sprint Nav app cause I had not tried it yet and it told me that there was no connection. I though maybe it is corrupted...will have to push the app from someplace else...

Finally my exchange sync went out the window. It could not connect to the server...Contacts, calendar and email. It had been working smoothly until 5 minutes ago...

That was it for me...obviously the rebooting of the phone has created all this issues.

So reboot it again...and all came back to normal.

Weather synced, Nav app worked and exchange connected...

Facebook sync continues to work at 90%

Bottom line the ROM sometimes works, sometimes doesnt. If you happen to reboot your phone...it might go into "I dont want to work with you" kind of state and then you are f up. Or it might decide to be friendly and oblige...:p

I will give it couple more days and continue to read this forum and inform what I experience but if we cannot get this ROM to become as stable as its predecessor...then I will saddly have go back to 2.08.1 which worked A+ for the last month.:rolleyes:

Evo for me? not for a year at least...so Hero with 2.08.1 will have to do...

redownload from first damage post, wipe phone, wipe dalvik. and flash again.....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] smw6180:
Ok, I ran this all day, and I've nandroided back to Fresh 2.1.2. Here's my experience:

Note: Some of these things other people have mentioned. I only mention them again because this was MY experience with it, after running it since last night.

Pre-work:

Wiped factory/reset, dalvik, sd:ext

Initial flash:

Flashed over Fresh 2.1.2 after a wipe. First boot took the expected 10 minutes while dalvik was built. Once booted, was unable to use the google quick setup due to the mobile network not starting.

Rebooted, skipped google quick setup. Turned on/off airport mode, network came up. The system was dragging. No syncs were running, nothing that should have been tying it up. Waited another 10 minutes, everything was fine. Not superfast, but fine. Did the google set up, market worked but I was unable to download anything. HTC Widgets weren't showing up, cleared Sense data, that was fine. Then about 30 minutes later they vanished again. I decided to wipe and reflash.

Second Flash:

Re-partitioned SD card.

Re-wiped Factory/Dalvik/SD:EXT (SD not necessary,since I had just repartitioned, but it's a habit).

Re-flashed the ROM.

Booted up, skipped google set up. Airplane mode off/on, did google set up. HTC Widgets were fine. Market allowed me to download. 'Get More HTC Widgets' appears not to work. Download/install never finishes for any of the apps.

Phone was VERY slow. No syncs happening, just slow. Had a phone call, after the call was over I was unable to tap anything on the phone for 8 minutes. Everything was very lagged.

Rebooted the phone. Did airplane mode again (mobile network needs to be reinitialized after EVERY boot. Tested this multiple times) and got back on the network. Normal speeds. Phone call, again lagged out. After the phone 'caught up' it rebooted itself. Came back up fine, but rebooted itself several times throughout the day. Also, battery life is AWFUL. By noon (5 hours off the charger) I was down to 40% battery life. Charged it back up at work, and the battery dropped again to 40% within 5 hours.

Overall impression:

This ROM is way too buggy for me to use as a daily. I've never had problems with DC roms in the past, and they've always been the most stable. However this ROM, even after multiple wipes and installs, just plain doesn't work for me. I've read some have had more success then others, but overall what I experienced and what I read from others leads me to believe that this ROM is just too buggy to have been a release version. Sorry TrevE and Damageless...I calls it like I sees it....this ROM isn't ready for 'prime time'.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dalvarez7:
I agree, I think 2.08.1 was much more stable. As someone else stated earlier, "this bun needs to go back into the oven a while longer".
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Spikemonkey:
That was me! And yeah, I hope the odexed version works better. I just wish TrevE would have waited to sell his Hero so he could test these things himself. And I wish Damage would stop being so quiet about what's going on with the Rom. But, I will take what I get and like it, becuase that's all there is to it. Once agian, keep up the good work, guys. Thanks.
