Hmm. Thanks for the info. Will go accordingly.

The only thing I am missing in these custom ROMs is MS Exchange Support to My company mails. None of the ROMs could handle that issue (security issue)till now. Even if I use market enabler and try to buy n install some paid apps, then Google checkout wont let me buy that app as I have an Indian card:( So was just hoping that thing get sorted out in Official RUU and hence the urgency

ROM]31/05/10 - TeamVillain Presents: VillainROM 6.2 (Sense, Fast, 2.1, Complete!)

Noob question will this allow me to use my Orange UK hero with o2 sim ?

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Hi mate, there's an issue with some OrangeUK users with older SIMs.

It works for everyone else, but lenny had this issue. You can get the old radios from www.villainrom.co.uk/radio/

Or check out the thread here about Orange UK users with new radio.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] one_tjc:
nope - this rom won't unlock your phone
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
I use exchange all the time with villainrom 6.2.1

it's easy. in my case I can use the real exchange server (servername.domainname.com/net/whatever) and I leave the specific domain name field blank. enter my login and password (nothign fancy here, don't even need to put loginname/domainname) and voila it works.

but I also tried using the webserver for the domain name with everything else the same and guess what? it works! webmail.companyname.com or whatever, if your exchange webmail is setup. so now I don't even need to be logged into our company wifi security using true exchange protocol to get my work email/calendars/directory, I get it all even when I'm at home or on the road.

amaznig stuff. works perfectly. I suspect your issue is either configuration trouble (it's nonstandard, try what I suggested) or a server issue with your work exchange setup being misconfigured or possibly an unusual version that doesn't talk nicely to our exchange client in android?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
reboot your computer or get a new one?

that's not something to do with the downloads, it's to do with the harddrive writing or memory management on your computer.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] keridel:
Crappy. Wonder how they sim lock it past the Rom stage. Must have it right in the kernel.

HI

Any idea when we gona get the next version may be version 7 with official 2.1 ROM for our Villain ROM?

developers please advise....

Thank you for your support...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
I can tell you it will be called version 10 of villainrom :-)

from their website. but otherwise I don't see anything yet about a release date.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] McKriss:
Villain 10th is available already. No full multilingual support, but at least proper keyboards. Also, it's got a real big Facebook bug, so I'mwaiting for that ota update.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] merlin699:
yes, here the same. the more you use this rom the better it works. I'll keep it until the EU version of 2.1 arrives. I tried the V10 and it's too buggy at the moment.

Good for you mate. But the kind of security in our company's exchange server is incredible. Its not the general issue i m talking about. Its the problem with the security certs which is adopted by our exchange server and our ROMs inability to handle them. Cant reveal more about it as I m bound Compnay's SBC. Just think as, u need either ocean's team to get through the security. ;-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] AndrewWalker613:
quick question, Im still running this rom since Im waiting for a more stable version of the new 2.1... what is the recommended overclocking to use on this rom? Im gonna try it out today.

thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ateyercheese:
For those worried about the speed of this rom, visit the thread on "Android's internal task killer". My Villain6.2 is blisteringly fast!

Many thanks to the cooks, the Villian series of ROMs have been of a very high standard.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] knudsen81:
1 hour i loss 7,5% battery, but i have also downloaded all my apps, sync all my mail and so on
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Himcor:
yes, but i only have one wipe alternative.. dunno why (wipe data/factory reset)

i have recovery-RA-hero-v1.6.2

and when i boot recovery mode it says Build: CyanogenMod v1.4 + JF

used this guide when i flashed the recovery image http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=645253

i tried cronos 1.3 and it was even slower than villain 6, wipe there too :O

should i use another recovery image?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ChosSimbaOne:
Can i enable JIT in this rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] knudsen81:
no JIT do not work on sense roms
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ChosSimbaOne:
So if disable sense and use awd could i?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] knudsen81:
I don't know, but make a nandroid backup, and then try it
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] stephenophof:
WiFi Tethering is working, with the Wireless Tether for Root Users application from the Market :D

But USB tethering isn't working. I hope it will be fixed in the next release.

Although, VillainROM 6.0 is the best ROM for Hero so far, especially in combination with the Legendary-Ben10-Kernel which gives me a 3.1 MFLOPS score in Linpack for Android Iwith overclock to 710MHz) :D

Best ROM ever for Hero!! :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
That sounds a bit more like it. 7.5% in an hour isn't bad if there was a lot of screen use.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] knudsen81:
I always use my phone alot and you rom is awesome
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Thanks. Once HomerSP is done with it, it will be a lot more awesome. I'm a heavy user too, and this is the only ROM I've had decent battery from. I am able to underclock to 19MHz in sleep too, but I don't recommend it, as mine just seems to be lucky ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] skauk:
What boot loader do i need for this ?? I dont have a partition option on my screen using cyanogen v1.4 + JF ??
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
That is based on AmonRA recovery 1.6.2. I think it's a sticky, or you can find it easily using search over here on xda.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
We (homer) have now got FriendStream widget working :)

Just wait for VillainROM 6.1 ;)

EDIT: Still on 100% battery :D Don't know what the issue people are having is. I cant really get screenshot though, since that would involve plugging it in, which will reset the time since unplugged
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] X-Ter:
Please don't put live wallpapers on Sense or at least make it optional. It slows Rosie down a lot.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] withoutwings:
Re: [ROM]24/05/10 - TeamVillain Presents: VillainROM 6.0 (Sense, Fast, 2.1)

I imagine it would be optional, especially if there is still the tradeoff of breaking 3D in other areas such as Google Nav, weather animations, etc.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] unika:
Were you build VR6 from the exact same base as the Cronos one?

Why I'm asking this that, the two ROMs have a lot in common, whereas VR5.5 differes from both VR6 and Cronos. Even the not working list is similar. ;)

The only difference is the kernel and I think you get behnaam's and Cronos has his own (though, sources could be the same). :)

And what is funny is that some people make war here defending either of these ROMs. :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] deanguqiang:
me 2.

try this link:http://www.villainrom.grense.no/vil...44&t=680&sid=f78d6465bdafd119b85b0d86ac79a88c
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Nah. It's up. Try setting your dns to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 (google dns). That fixes it if you ISP's dns is rubbish
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Well, they come from the Droid Eris ROM, but VillainROM is deodexed and has a lot of little extras :) Wait for 6.1 :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Yeah. I think it will be optional.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] unika:
Yes, I've seen that. Either extras are too small or no value for me.

Sorry, now I prefer Cronos, and I already tested VR6 and decided to stick to Cronos. ;)

Anyway, I'd like peace between ROM devs and their users rather then war.

Peace!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] knudsen81:
Any ETA for 6.1 :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Tatsu99:
testing now, it seems as fast as 5.5 with OC kernel... and installing my apps took away half my battery! :eek:

I hope it gets better! :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Today. It should add FriendStream and widget, languages, multitouch fix for maps etc. and a whole load of other random little fixes. It's a nice bundle of fixes, and I'm looking forward to trying them all out.

Still on 100% battery BTW folks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Yup. Agreed. Friendstream will make a return, and multilanguage is appearing. Few other little fixes. Might also look at Sense with live wallpapers as an optional one ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Tatsu99:
you know what's a funny thing? I installed doing a full wipe etc... and the rom is all in Italian! :eek:

I could not choose italian in the initial settings, but when I imported my personalised settings with titanium backup it went italian :D sweet
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Fraqq:
can anybody tell me why the 3D Gallery only works with this Rom and the rotatebug still exist when i try to install the 3d gallery from this rom on another?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] j0bro:
I presume that's charge and not load ;)

Looking forward to v6.1 though, this ROM gets better and better at each release. I might even consider donating, but I'm a dev too and not a user :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] j0bro:
Yeah I used MoreLocale2 to force Dutch and it works too despite the lack of locale choices in the settings.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] leung128wp:

i've downloaded, flashed (full wipe even for SD card), perfect, but...

when i use the OTA udpater, it reboots into recovery but then its stuck on "copying files"... any solution?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] knudsen81:
press reboot it is flashed
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
I don't think it's stuck. If the menu with reboot appears, then it's done.

Unfortunately, this is a limitation of recovery, just press the trackball to reboot.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
It looks just like stock HTC Sense, so there's not much to see. I can try and get you some, but it just looks like normal sense. Till we get some themes going ;)

going to flash it right now ! :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] OGC313:
Can this kernel be OC'd to 710mhz like the 1.5 ones?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
This one can go to 691MHz. I think a few people struggled with 710MHz. A pity though, as mine could do 71MHz and above without issues, but mine can also run in sleep at 19MHz
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] OGC313:
Arr thanks I'll give it a go :) Sounds like you got a pretty decent handset then! Aha.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Yup :) When my contract is up in 12 months, I might see if anyone wants to buy it off me, since it seems to be the most flexible one I've heard of.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ericjosepi:
F'n Eh!

Dude, this ROM is probably the best 2.1 ROM I've used. I especially appreciate the OTA update capabilities as well. It definitely appears faster and I am loving all the benefits that come with Android 2.1. If you guys can do for FroYo what you've done for Éclair, I'll be a happy happy Hero user for some time.

Although, if Google follows up the Nexus One at some point I may have to lean that way!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pigdog237:
Could anyone confirm whether the voice / instructions are in UK English on Google Navigation? I'm using Villain 5.5, which is perfect except for "traffic circles" doing my head in! (adjusting language settings don't make any difference). I previously used another ROM which had localised UK instructions, which was much nicer! :)

EDIT: "Traffic circles" rather than the more usual UK "roundabout".
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] drygmasken:
To make it go to 710MHz I have to put max to 768MHz.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Hmm. Try it when 6.1 comes out. It will have greater localisation support.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Indeed. You are correct. Thanks for pointint out.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] maxisma:
After a few reboots, this ROM doesn't boot anymore, quitting it job by not letting sh run for some reason anymore.

I had this issue with all ROMs running behnaam's .29 kernel.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Hmm. That seems weird. I wonder if your hardware just isn't up to the clock speed that is set?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] GXFX:
lol..

i have

2 mail icon ;

2 settings icon ;

2 messages icon

and Villain ROM updater FC´s every time :S

btw ,the best android 2.1 rom :D

thanks :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] maxisma:
Nah, it fails because its not able to run the sh-binary anymore.

My Hero's CPU can run the OC just fine on Cupcake ROMs with my .27 kernel.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Sounds like you didn't wipe everything before installing (including EXT if you can). Try that. If updater FCs, check USB is not connected, and then try deleting folder villainromupdater from sdcard
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Tatsu99:
I had his same problem with double icon (and I wiped) but it solved itself with a few reboot... wonder what happened :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] KaYs3r:

I also have the 'cave' sound effect, cool but creepy!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jUsT2eXy:
it is a problem with the new kernal... just press the off button once to put hero to sleep and press it again to wake it up and it will go... nothing more you can do..it does not happen often though

:D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ermacwins:
anon is this being addressed in 6.1?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Nope. That is your own overclock settings. It means you need to reduce the maximum speed or increase the minimum in sleep.

This applies for anyone with purple/graphics issues, or a sluggishness or inability to wake from sleep. To force it awake, plug in the usb cable. Then change the settings.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
No. Totally different base. You need to use VillainROM 6 themes.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ermacwins:
lol so overclocking turns the screen purple?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
not exactly. Resuming when underclocked too low can cause this. Just knock the underclock on sleep speed up a little
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jUsT2eXy:
Hi I remember reading in one of the kernal threads someone asked why the purple issue occured... the thread starter (kernal provider) said it was a kernal problem..

people without overclocked kernals (like me) are also suffering from the purple issue... (even with 5.5 with updated kernal)

so yeah... hmm

also just did a google search and you wrote this:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] knudsen81:
Hey anon2122 can you add the stock contact app in this rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Ehm. A lot of people don't really want it, but try pushing it to /data/app and see if it works. I can make it an option if it works
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] knudsen81:

Thanks go to Stickman & bihariel for this fast fix.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Swap on on mine is set at 128mb and not 0 but works on all other roms is this setting just for your rom?

Also i am using ext3 is this a problem on your rom?

Cheers its just a right pain copying everything off the sd card then re partitioning again then copying everything back to find it still doesnt work?

Cheers mate

oops thought this was the superhero villain thread as thats the rom i'm running, but you can still try this fix to see if it works.

Shouldnt need that mate if the rom has apps2sd built in
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shanz:

This is to do with the kernel. Not the rom itself. I use Superhero 1.1.0 and it does the same, but it didn't before I flashed the new kernel update. I'm sure it will be sorted.

standard speed or OC? Now I've even disabled OC to see if it works better, also I did already disable autoupdate for the OTA app... testing

with villain 5.5 I had excellent sleep battery drain, less than 1% per hour... that was really sweet (even with OC kernel, of course sleep speed was slower, the same that I have set now)
