Boot Time for This ROM

Hi mates,

can anyone tell me, whats the boot time for this Rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinyfong:
No I want to fully uninstall the sense launcher from the system
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rover.prince:
Well I am not sure that can be done as Sense Launcher is part of sense rom and I assure it might break some codes if we remove that from the Rom as a whole, but why do u wanna completely remove the launcher, it don't caste a lot of space just clear default and set ur Launcher Pro to default and u r done, ur Launcher will become default. I don't find any reason for removing the sense Launcher.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] garynsa:
Why not instead use the Lite version on cronos site. thats without sense
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] saj222:
Wow, that is great news! I am very excited.

Feeyo, keep doing what you're doing man. :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinyfong:
i want sense but i dont want the sense launcher, and how to get the eclair lockscreen on to this rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinyfong:
hi feeyo,

is it better to flash 2.11 then flash the Gzip fix then flash 2.12

or just flash 2.12 straight?

if coming from 2.11 do we have to wipe anything?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
You do not need to flash the gzip flash. if you are flashing 2.1.2. Wipe dalvik-cache only.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinyfong:
Thanks! and can we have the battery percentage like in vanilla?

how do we import the vanilla lockscreen and the receiving call>> the slide to unlock

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] theodore80:
There is an issue with the 3D gallery. When I click the camera button on the right top corner the application crashes reporting an error: com.cooliris.media has stopped unexpectedly. Then the Gallery loads again. Does anybody else experience the same problem? Is it maybe fixed with 2.1.2? I am running 2.1.1.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Guanarteme:
Having the same with 2.1.2
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tmh:
Used this fix for the gallery on both 2.1.1 and 2.1.2, fixes it right up :) Didn't wipe the dir as described in the description when I did it on 2.1.2, but it still works fine...

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kakabobo:
i had flashed 2.1.2 but under software number it reflected as cronosDroid-1.7.

is above correct?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tmh:
Did you come from 1.7.7? And what did you wipe prior to flashing?

2.1.2 should say 2.1.1 (Feeyo forgot to change the number). Also, if you flash JIT, it'll say 1.7 or 1.7.7.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Humanoids:
That fix ****ed up my Picture Frame widget and made the Gallery FC. Also some other stuff in Gallery did FC. Maybe I did something wrong. The camera thing in the upper corner worked though. But for now I´ll roll back...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tmh:
Hmm, it does indeed kill the Picture Frame widget. Didn't know, as I don't use it :P

I've had no FC's in Gallery though, apart from when trying to set up those Picture Frame widgets.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kakabobo:
i had flashed jit hence it reflected as 1.7

thanks for your advice.

Feeyo

How do you bring the vanilla lock screen to this rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
try removing the HTCLockscreen.apk from your phone.?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinyfong:
But you remove the vanilla lock screen also won't come? I want the slide to unlock and slide to answer phone, can it be done in this rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shroog:
can`t download from any link

plz add mediafire to your links
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] msnxda:
Selecting managing applications gives a force close in the settings app. Wiped everything and formatted SD.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Nemo0815:
Still having the SMS issue with 2.1.2, although i think not as much anymore...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] theodore80:
Hi Feeyo, could you please have a look at this? Thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tmh:
Do note that the above fix will break the Picture Frame widget though, as decribed a couple of posts up. So for now, I guess you'll have to choose between camera button or picture frame :D

I do like how the Gallery fix also has my "locale" or whatever, so I get it in Danish, instead of in English as I do with the one that comes with 2.1.2 :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinyfong:
anyone can do this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ric.rug:
Wipe needed coming from 2.1.1?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tmh:
Wiping Dalvik should be enough - it was for me at least :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] GeorgesAbitbol:
some lag when unlocking the phone...

Hello,

Since the update of the rom to 2.1.2 I have some little lags when unlocking the phone, sometimes there is no problem.

Do you think this is due to the kernel memory leak?

I've updated from 2.1.1 to 2.1.2 with a dalvik cache.

I also have another problem, contacts pictures are not displayed anymore in the mms app nor in handsent sms, but this certainly is my fault :o : I removed the mms.apk app when I was in 2.1.1, after that I loose pictures.

Updating to 2.1.2 didn't change anything (except mms.apk is back, but without pictures).

Do you know what's wrong and how to have the contact pictures back?

All the rest is working like a charm, excellent work, thanks!

Max
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] flitz:
On wich MHz are you guys on ?

710/160 ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulptweety:
2.1.2

I have an problem with Overclock Widget ...

sometimes it stuck with 264 .. sometimes at 460 ....

but everytime the message "new clock set" appears ...

settings are 512/512 on

an 192/192 off

the phone is very slowly of course... specially with 264 clock .
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Well then you need to change the minimum of the clock to be higher?

Its doing its overclocking automatically so when it does not need a lot of power it will drop to a lower one.

Play with it. See what you think is the best combination.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinyfong:
feeyo you had been working on the vanilla rom and i wanna ask can you bring the theme in vanilla over to this rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] quark_star:
All good updating from 2.1.1 to 2.1.2 after a dalvik cache wipe.

Many thanks Feeyo for your excellent work.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] cbailey:
Feeyo,

can 2.0.2 > 2.1.2 with just a dalvik + update? or do I need to reformat sd, new ext and complete fresh install?

ta
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rover.prince:
Hey Feeyo,

I've been using this Rom since couple of days and I must say It's amongst the best I've used. His bless you for your great efforts that u put here for the community. I needed ur guidance on a matter.

I used set CPU and my gov. Is set to conservative so I feel system very laggy I mean a lot of laggy when it reruns from sleep to unlock screen. But if It's put to ondemand my battery consumption is high. I just imagine its because the minimum frequency is 160 mhz so if it has been about 19 mhz will it not make the CPU usage a bit low while in sleep.

Looking for your guidanxe, regards.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Putting your frequency that low is a bad idea and yes will create laggy wake up. As conservative is slow on the frequency jumps it will lagg a bit longer then normally on ondemand.

19Mhz for sleep mode seems to me a bit too low really, what are u trying to do put your phone into a coma?

Minimum 160 for sleep mode should be perfect.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] neo23185:
Hi,

what about the language, is it possible to switch to German? would everything be in German (System,T9, Keyboard)?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Xaladilnik:
yes and yes!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rover.prince:
U r right, but when I said 19 mhz i meant the lowest possible option, i have used 110 in ondemand and it's pretty good (on Villain Rom 12). VR12 was my 1st ROM and your Froyo 0.1 was 2nd and since your froyo I just love ur Roms, they are really masterpiece to use. Simple elegant stable and useful.

Well what do u think ondemand on 116 mhz is it bad thought while phone is on sleep. hmmmmm
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] walkinhotdog:
Hey feeyo, when do you forsee your next update on this rom? im sort of a lazy rom flasher and try to stick with one for at least a week to fully test it out. Jus wondering if i shud wait a little longer or jus flash this one.

And what is the bootup time for this rom?

Thanks in advance
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
If your phone can wake up correctly from that speed with ondemand. Why not? The lower the better in sleep mode if you phone can handle it that is.

Give it some try's. But do some test calls to your phone when its in low sleep mode just to be sure it rings over fast enough. Sometimes when underclocking you will notice that if you get a call it will ring after a few seconds as it needs to wake up from his coma and notify you someone is calling :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rover.prince:
Thanks a lot for your kind guidance. God Bless u.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinyfong:
can anyone pls tell me?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] cbailey:
Could anyone answer the above? many thanks for looking :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gli8600:
I tried oc over 700mhz and it became unstable and freeze, anyone else having the same problem? anything less than 700mhz is quite stable.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ZeppeMan:
That's totally normal. Some can reach 768Mhz easy and others only can reach 600Mhz. Your Hero (@700Mhz) is probably on his maximum stable speed.

Every CPU is different. Maybe we all can reach 800Mhz easy if we would increase voltage on the CPU. But then we have to 2 problems.

1) Huge battery drain.

2) Battery too hot (overheat?).

Mine too can reach 700Mhz maximum stable, so your not the only one :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Dunkelziffer87:
I have the same Problems but I don't care about that cause it is still fast with 690 mhz
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
You will need to wipe everything from that version jump.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Hi, sorry I missed your post.

This rom is perfect really. There will be no big updates anymore for the 2.1 sense rom versions from Cronos. Maybe some performance tweaks here and there but thats it.

The first boot takes ages. But after that the reboots will be fast. But please note that after you have installed a bunch of aps to the rom the reboot after that will take a bit longer then normal as it will optimize the new packages on boot.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gli8600:
I had problem changing background picture, though I didn't wipe battery/rotate settings, also didn't repartition the sd card. Now I am wiping everything see if this helps.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shamsud:
hey feeyo thanks for the nice rom it is most stable and fast rom i have used

i know u r very busy but can u create an update. zip for kernal with cpu lockdown to 160-691 i dont want to use setcpu. it lags when phone wake after sleep

feeyo can vanilla theme be port to this rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
I am working on an Vanilla Eclair version.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinyfong:
i dont really like the vanilla contact and mail, so i dont intend to switch to vanilla and prefer to stick with this. i actually only want the vanilla lockscreen and the slide to receive call.. is it possible?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
adb shell
rm /system/app/HtcLockScreen.apk

This will remove the htc lockscreen and you will have the vanilla lockscreen. Although your alarm will not work anymore so you will have to download a new alarm clock.

But I do not see the point in reverting sense back to vanilla to be honest.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinyfong:
well actually i like the lockscreen and the slide to answer call only from vanilla, thats all. so this way i will get the lockscreen, but how do i get the slide to answer call like vanilla?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinyfong:
so how to get the slide to answer call?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
for the record feeyo, having used both quite a bit, I far prefer the vanilla contact system, so please don't let shinyfong turn you off of building a vanilla rom :-).

when it's working properly (it isn't in every "vanilla" rom out there though) it's one entry for everyone in your list one time only, click the name and see EVERY method to contact that person instantly in one little scrollable screen. FAR FAR faster and more complete than sense.

But it does have to actually be working properly. Worst example of a contact list is the slide roms - they can't seem to link anything automatically so I get myself in the list 3 times for example (gmail, exchange via email addy, exchange via M$ active directory database address (ewe blech)). And it just gets worse in slide roms when you add facebook etc, nothing can be interlinked with exchange properly.

Sense is similar to vanilla but with far worse layout and fewer contact methods.

But in vanilla it's outstanding. click a name, then click once to contact that person however you want from the list. and send info from one type of received data to a different type without even thinking about it. so nice!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinyfong:
i not say vanilla is not good of course vanilla got its own advantages i cant deny, but i am not used to it. Thats why i am asking if i can port the slide to answer call over here like how vanilla pick up call instead of the original sense. Don't get me wrong mate
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
haha, I did get you wrong. cool :-)

I'm not pushing vanilla, but for those who love sense (and I can understand it of course, it's very good), I encourage them to try a good, well setup vanilla system (with a good dialer like "dialer one", vanilla dialer is kind of annoying imho).

So I took that as an opportunity to list why I like it's contact list system better than sense's. I may have misunderstood your original post.

cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinyfong:
Haha its okay I tried to use vanilla but in the contacts when you link them with fb its not as good as sense? I'm not sure cus I'm still unfamiliar with it I guess
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
could be. how is it organized in sense? I'm running vanilla right now.

for me my facebook people who don't match up with my other contacts get their own entry in contacts (which is how I told it to be in contacts->settings). those contacts who match facebook<->existing contact just get a facebook line added near the bottom of the original contact's contact method choices. Also any previously missing info such as birthday etc is added automatically.

Seems pretty much how sense did it I think, but looks nicer to me in the vanilla listing.

I'm never sure how it chooses the photo though, if I have a photo in each contact listing and it links them automatically then it chooses one of the photos. Iv'e seen it choose either or depending on which rom I've flashed. Maybe it's based on how new the photo is? But it works really well either way LoL.

edit: and in vanilla I also can click once to send them an SMS, a gmail, an of their alternative emails, any of their phone numbers, a message through facebook, a tweet, start a gtalk conversation, and so on. I remember some of that in sense but have a pretty strong memory that many of those options weren't available in the sense "people" app, or at least not easily found like in vanilla's contact app.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinyfong:
but when you join them sometimes the contact might have different name on fb so when you join them, in your contact list they take the facebook name
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] cepet:
ok so this rom is sweet! i have just one problem, earlier roms i've used(tried most custom) i could enable "show battery percentage" through spare parts, only that in this rom i don't have that option >_< anyone else except me having this problem ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kipreos:
hey freeyo, its quietly brilliant, but the usb connection is missing. .
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:

As your coming from a different rom I would recommend a full wipe indeed.

Do a nand backup to be sure. a2sd is already active default on Cronos so no worries about it.

You can enable jit with a patch on Cronos Forum.

hey feeyo, first of all thanks for your work. i just got your 2.1.3 running, well see how it goes. but is there a way to change the font back to the original one or be able to make the two interchangeable. I downloaded the default font zip but what do i do with it? flash it in recovery?

Secondly sms vibrate didnt work for my first flash (after a while, i tested it at the beginning and it worked fine). I wiped and reflashed with same apps and its working so far (fingers crossed). Is this a known problem? It happened for the other roms (v12, kimera) when i restored old texts but i didnt do it either time with this rom.
