Re: [ROM] 19 May 2010- Cronos Droid (2.1 Release full 2.6.29)

You can't have observed very good, the reason we release to donators is so that we can solve problems so when release public it is as complete as possible.

If villain 6 is donator rom I will eat my hat, as any mod or admin from the site said it will be..... no

Grrr

From a normally calm and nice mike

Double grrr
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ThunderRoad:
OFFTOPIC OFFTOPIC OFFTOPIC

About the "donatorware", I'm not opposite to people that choose this way, but If you had choosed the "donatorware" way.......Why are you loosing your time in forums like that, and flaming other devs ????

I don't understand.......

Regards
​
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Yup. Believe it or not, we have been trying. Some haven't been fixable though :(

I have an internal communication setting the release time for Super to public though. Can't reveal it, but it's very soon
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ddotpatel:
Okay,... The reason I'M looking forward to Villian6 is that by the sound of 5.5 it is excellent apart from a few minor stability issues which should be ironed out by the next release. If it is released as a 'donator only' ROM then that will only be during initial testing (I assume), then it will be released to the public.

Oh come on, you gota have some ethics man. Really?... U'd prefer a guy to lie rather than be upfront? We all know that web sites cost money,... and unfortunately so does time. Monies have to be raised somehow, and its only fair that the guys that do dig deep and DONATE (not me,... yet) get a little something extra for their kindness. Nathan et al do not have anyone bent over a barrel to force funds.

Yeah your right, I wouldn't know if it wasn't for Kendong (so thank you),... But as I said, you gota have some ethics, and I'm willing to stick to mine, maybe the world would be a better place if more people did the same. Dont lie,... and then dont run your mouth off when questioned!!!!!

Definately have to agree,... But also a little transparency from the start would have nipped this in the bud on page 1. Agree?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Agreed. I'm doing this Villain as said above, and to re-iterate, I see no need to go through the beta phase on it. I'll get an OTA app made up for it, like the other ROMs, then it will be ok for a release. I have a target release date, but we have to stagger our releases to prevent server meltdown. Thanks to our server donators, we can probably get away with 2 releases at once, although I'm aware of more than just 2 ROMs coming up. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Wiley87:
On the side of Feeyo:

This ROM is very fast, easily the fastest that I have tried, and I have tried nearly every ROM on xda.

'Get More' HTC Widgets also works, which is the first time that I have ever got this to work. Google Sync works, as does Facebook.

I'll keep doing more testing, but so far I am very pleased with the speed.

On the other side of the arguement:

The ROM is very quick, which is great in itself. However, if this isn't a new kernel you shouldn't keep the thread title how it is. The thread will gain speed and recognition through the ROM being fast, you do not need to say it is something else. Removal of the thread title would keep both parties happy, creating a thread where only the positives can be seen.

Thanks for your time and effort, I really enjoy testing all the ROM's out there.

Wiper the wipe wipe. I am guessing you need to wipe.

From what rom did you come?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] naffgorr:
Media volume or ring volume? Cause there's a setting in 2.1 that when enabled lowers the ring volume upon movement, but you probably know all about this already.. just thought i should inform you just in case

Feeyo can we overclock the non oc version?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] akuma24:
which link did you download from? I used the rapidshare link last night and its worked fine for me, wipe battery and rotating settings as well
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marinierb:
Can't those people remove the HTCLockScreen files themselves?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lewman:
Same message with OC version. Have wiped everything (rotation,battery,ext partitions,data, cache etc.)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Moonshield:
HEy, make sure that your download is fine, I used to get the same errors when the downloaded file was corrupted for some reason.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lewman:
Are you sure dropbear is included in this ROM?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vladimired:
waiting ! thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jyhwai:
I dont like the HTCLockScreen either :p
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shyrka:
I verified the MD5SUM against the zip and it was fine.

Must be an issue with the build. :(

Properly can't wait for a 'working' 1.4.1 :p

Shyrka

How to enable more wifi channel?

I have flashed your firmware, and it is amazing.

But could you help me to enable the wifi channel to 14.

Many thanks!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] akuma24:
how can we lower the cpu from 710 to something like say 650, bit concerened about pushing the cpu, besides that my findings

ROM is crazy fast, wifi working, no echo sound on calls anymore, i think apps2sd is working, have removed some of the defaults apps, like stocks, peep, footprints, super duper quick :D:D:D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] M@rtin:
I used this fix to resolve the latest dropbear error when flashing 1.4.1 OC. I just modified the commands as follows:

mkdir -p /system/xbin/dropbear

touch /system/xbin/dropbear

Install completed successfully after this, previously I had the error multiple times.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Yes they are :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Rhamsterman:
Phew! got it before u snagged it......

I was getting worried tho'

you can only look at so many girls wrapped in food wrap before it starts to get boring ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
NOC is posted guys. Let me know how it works out!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:

NOC Online!!!

Yuhuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shyrka:
My problem is that I cannot connect to my phone via USB anymore since I moved from VillainRom 5.5 to Cronos 1.3.

I cannot under any circumstances install the USB driver....keeps saying 'Cannot install hardware'.

I'm kinda hoping Cronos 1.4.1 will fix this, so until we get a fixed 1.4.1 update zip I'm stuck.

:(

Shyrka
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mikeyd85:
Can anyone with 1.4.1 (either version really) let me know how this ROM compares speed wise to a good 1.5 ROM (eg Kimera)?

Thanks! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Eh? I dont think this is fixable with an android system though. Or I do not understand you correct.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lewman:
Sounds more like a windows issue. Try it on a different machine
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] akuma24:
will leave 1.5 standing :D I was using modaco 3.2 for 3 months before jumping ship to Cronos, much quicker than that although I am using the OC version so not sure about NOC
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shyrka:
Crazy but as soon as I flashed Cronos 1.3 WinXP could no longer see the phone. Madness eh?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] akuma24:
are you using XP or windows 7?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Remove the items: HtcLockScreen.apk and HtcLockScreen.apk.odex from the /system/app directory and you have the transparent lockscreen
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shyrka:

is your rom not deodexed?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jyhwai:
anyone，please？？？

do i need to wipe or not，mine is 1.4 OC
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
No. Those are safe to be removed.

See first post. :)

specifically the bit about USBDeview?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Make a backup of your sdcard. Wipe everything. Repartition your scard to:

swap = 0

ext2 = 512MB

fat32 = rest

And try again. Will flash without problems.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] k0st4sGR:
OC working fine

I flashed the 1.4.1 0C version like 20 minutes ago ... from what i ve seen so far no serious bug has been found, also i didnt have any problems installing it and seems pretty stable so far, nice work Feeyo keep up the good work.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jyhwai:
Thx，I did not see the changes on the first post

PS : I used to think my english is so bad that you guys cant get it
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] akuma24:
Can confirm thats what worked for me, make sure you wipe everything including battery and rotating settings :) and dont forget the nandroid backup
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Davith:
Is the 1.4 OC ROM on the front page the updated one with the root fix? I'm getting confused since the names are the same. :D

Plus the one on Zshare says it's last been donwloaded this morning around 7AM, so I'm assuming it's not the fixed one yet.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Yep like I said in a few pages back. I have been doing a lot of things differently in the rom so maybe you do need a fresh start.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marco.fabbri:
another great release (4 in a few days!)

thanks again
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jpalo:
- Both Tethers say "Unable to start tethering. Please try again!"

- Should I be seeing the Superuser application in "All programs" or do I need to install it from somewhere? In 1.4 it was still there (not working though, only showing black screen when starting or trying to use from applications).

1.4.1 OC (the latest one, not the ones that were pulled).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] delarosajv:
I just installed 1.4.1 but the Markets keeps loading forever in Service Terms of android Market. I rebooted many times with no luck. Any other with the same prob?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
This is the old one mate. I guess the multiupload has not yet synced the files correctly to the other file sharing servers... What a piece of **** that service...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jyhwai:
Feeyo

when will you release the JIT Versions

really expect it
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Yes zshare is still hosting the old version! :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shyrka:
Ok...used USBDEVIEW and removed ALL Android and HTC related drivers.

With USB debugging disabled the drivers all install (mass storage etc) perfectly.

But as soon as I enable USB Debugging WinXP detects a new device known as ADB...this fails to install.

If for instance though I boot into Recovery mode and enable MS-USB or whatever it's called I can 'adb shell' to the phone!!!!

Has to be a problem with Cronos 1.3...surely.

Shyrka
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Ok.... to make it a bit easier for myself. And so that I can enjoy a bit of time with my daughter tonight and tomorrow.. I promise I will releasing the JIT versions this weekend! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mobydeek:
just to clarify, when people say "transparent lockscreen" they mean the Vanilla Lockscreen? (Slide right to Unlock and Slide left for Slient Mode?)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] silverstream:
Why dun you have a version number to the file, so we know exactly which version we downloaded ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] akuma24:
is that OC or NOC? Im using OC version and Market is working super quick over HSDPA, have to add, it loads quicker than it did previously on wi-fi.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gaz31:
Installed latest non OC version over non OC 1.3 without wipe,

all working fine. :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] longjumper:
i flashed the nOC rom and also the OC rom but in both cases it goes into a bootloop. how could i fix it? did a full wipe before flashing.

thx
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] msiviter:
1.4.1 OC

Booted fine - no wipe

APN for O2 UK fine

sms errors to be tested

WiFi Fine

GPS fine

Voicemail notifications Fine

Speed really good

Battery life good

Market UK works

Echo in calls - gone!

WiFi tether option - not tested

Root access works fine

Much faster and more reliable than Villain 5.5.0, IMHO

Thanks

Matt
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ermacwins:
Feeyo can we OC the NOC release and vice versa?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exocet93:
I was doing exactely wath you say, but i still have error.

Some ideas ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
When accepting the license from market. Dont wait for it to load up. Just enter the search button and do a search. It will load up faster :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
hmmm. NOC version running at minimum 528Mhz maximum to be set to 650Mhz.

Anyone can confirm this issue with the NOC release?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Davith:
Could you tell me from which hosting website you downloaded it from? I don't know which one has the old 1.4 OC ROM (Zshare does apparently) and which one has the latest one with root working. :o
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Yep. I added the option to set speeds as a lot of users did not want to have the forced speeds lock.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Just use the main link from multiupload.com. Top one to be sure.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sychie:
Add a relase number to files, a lot easier to find this good one;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] delarosajv:
Well... is working now. Thankyou Cronos for your rom. It's really amazing. The best i tried(I think i've tried all of roms around)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sebek_d:
just about to flash NOC.

Will report later.

Thanks Feeyo
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ermacwins:
thanks downloading NOC now, might fiddle upto 710 here and there
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Yah. I will. Stupid of me not adding version numbers to the files.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Davith:
Thanks Feeyo. I won't ask any more questions today. Promise. :D

a lot of guys flash your rom in the first time
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] davemusic:
- OC widget says 538 and 710 to me

- SU requests showing black screen with "su request" titlebar at the top

but i hardly remember i had this a while ago because on another rom when i "upgraded" the Rom by flashing it without data-wipe. If i remember right a fresh install fixed it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] genich1971:
framework.jar

@Feeyo

as i'm using hebrew support, i need the file framework.jar that should include classes.dex.

it's needed to for the support for RTL.

in your ROM i can find framework.jar, but the file classes.dex not included.

is there any chance you can fix it, or give us the framework.jar? so i'll be able to rebuid it for RTL support.

thax in advance

the classes.dex is unique for every ROM, so i cannot use the file from another ROM.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sychie:
OK. Error flashing OC withou wipes (Failure at line 391...)

Now, doing your instruction
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Yeah its strange behavior. With a lot users it does work without probs and other users do have problems. So not something I can work on :(

I do testing on 2 hero phones of mine and when both flash correctly I upload it..

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] akuma24:
G2 Logo? are you sure you wiped the phone completely, I maybe wrong but when I first flashed a ROM on my phone, the dreaded G2 logo never appeared again :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Rhamsterman:
I'm trying to be optimistic, but.......

1.4.1 flashes fine, for me, but then, like others have mentioned, HERO screen but nothing else.

I'm gonna try flashing str8 over the 1.3 (which i love)

I tried with noc 1.4.1 and it was fine.

No error while installation.

I wiped everything including Battery settings/dalvik-cache/rotation settings.

setcpu shows 650mhz max 528min

Amazing fast ROM, no issues with WIFI/GPRS/3g/calling so far.

Thanks HTC should pay you and provide this as official ROM
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Long black screen is normal. Sometimes takes a while.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sebek_d:
Rolling back to 1.3 :)

25 min on black screen it's an ethernity.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Ok mate. I will edit the update script for the users who are having errors on that line.

As everything is already chmodded to the correct permissions i'll remove 2 lines so that at least you guys can flash without errors.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Wiley87:
Feeyo,

One problem that people may be experiencing will be due to the apps2sd fix.

After doing some tests, the ROM works perfectly, however once flashing the fix the phone will not boot up.

I've tried this a few times, and it keeps happening. If I decide not to flash it, it works perfectly.

Has anyone else tried this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
25 mins is too much indeed hehe.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sychie:
I will love you
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
the app2sd fix is only for the 1.3 version.... Not needed for 1.4.x
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sebek_d:
I will give another chance.

Just flashing again. If that's not working, I will try to update from 1.3 to 1.4.1 NOC
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] M@rtin:
Stupid and probably already asked question:

If the standard version is overclockable, why would I want to install the OC version? Is the NOC version just for those who can't run at 710MHz or want custom OC settings? I'm fine with 710MHz so the OC version seems the simplest for me.

BTW Feeyo, thanks for the great ROMs! This is the one that pushed me over to 2.1 and kept me there so far :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] GaRd3NiA:
You are the MAN, cant wait for 1.4.1 to run on my phone!;););)
