do you have a link where I can get it from (including instructions)?

thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] BB15:
I installed Fresh 2.1.2 a few days ago and am loving it! Looks slick and is fast.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lambstone:
I think in terms of speed, any of the 2.1 roms are great when the hero is overclocked (OC).

I had been using BeHero 1.2+ before the OC patch came out and it was occasionaly sluggish but after I applied the OC patch it is perfect now. LAGLESS :D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MNK78:
what i really need are links where i can download these things from...from whatever i've found, it seems to be through rapidshare.com which doesn't work...:(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] chachi:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MNK78:
thanks! finally found a site from your link that lets me d/load :)

Glad to be of assistance, is what we're all here for after all :)

Whatever ROM you install, I recommend that you install SpellDial to search for your contacts (it is free).

It gives you a T9-style search of your contacts. Type in the name on its telephone keypad and the you will usually get your contact listed within 3 to 4 key presses.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jd230:
SenseUI already does this.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MNK78:
hello again :)

now that I finally downloaded this, I don't know how to install it!...

I have an unbranded Hero (i.e. not locked to any network)... do I still need to root my phone first etc?

where can I get instructions on how to install the ROM?

many thanks!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] SiNJiN76:
yup...you need root access to install ROMs. Google Search on how to unlock your version of the HERO. Good Luck!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] chachi:
What he said.

Google 'how to root HTC hero'

Basically:

allow 3rd party installs, dl and copy the Rom zipfile, flash backup/loading tool and the recovery image to SD, install the tool, run it, backup, then flash the recovery bin to the phone, power off, power back on holding home and power until the green on black text recovery screen comes up, wipe all, then flash from SD and select the raidroid zip

Will take a few mins to flash and reboot, reboot will take a bit longer than usual but that's it in a nutshell.

Good luck ...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MNK78:
ok.. so the day started off with trying to root my hero with the 'one click' unlocker...

finally d/loaded the program, ran it but it somehow couldn't find my android phone (on Win 7)...

wasted a couple of hours on above, then tried it on a WinXP machine... found phone no problem, ran the one-click unlocker and got an error while trying to 'update' (i.e. downgrade ROM)...

so then thought I'd give the 'goldcard method' a go...

followed instructions to the letter...got as far as trying to write the image on the SD card till when I pressed save (on the hex editor) and it gave me a 'cyclic redundancy error'...

not sure what the heck that means!... don't know whether it had anything to do with me not formatting the SD card when sticking it in my PC since WinXP said it needed to be formatted....

however, the instructions didn't say anything about formatting it!... tried to re-insert it and format it but don't get the format option this time....

SD card works fine in phone...

Don't know whether its to do with brand of SD card not being compatible with the 'goldcard' method (San Disk)... read that Kingston works... can't be asked with all the hassle and going out to buy a different one etc etc...

Hoping that a new ROM is released by HTC officially, soon!

[G1 General] damien667:
OMG

ARE

YOU

SERIOUS?

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Compcache

you guys are like a whole YEAR late on compcache... SEARCH THE FORUMS

it makes me sad that in today's society, people want everything HANDED to them...
[G1 General] Cresho:
compcache has been discovered like 20 years ago. in a fresh install, i dont know if your refering to the cyanogen but you can enable compcache in spare parts
[G1 General] zixaphir:
Uhm? I'm pretty sure what's being presented here is a NEW METHOD of compcache? Am I wrong?

It seems that the current implementation behaved by using a part of your RAM as a compressed swap, where as this one makes it actually behave like compressed memory.
[G1 General] gophergun:
I believe you're right. At the very least, it's a new (22 hours old) version of Compcache.
[G1 General] olearyp:
This is a more generic version of ramzswap (compcache) which permits the virtual block device to be accessed exactly as a normal RAM drive, except it's compressed on the fly. You can make an arbitrary filesystem, etc., as shown in the OP. The current ramzswap driver can only be used as a swap partition. It does not provide OTF compression for normal RAM, however--the resulting thing is still a virtual block device carved out of part of the RAM, which is then unavailable for normal use.

I'm guessing there's more overhead if you were to want to use this as swap, though I can't say for sure (haven't tried/looked at code); since the Android system doesn't use a /tmp directory, it's no good for that, either. It's probably "nothing to see here, please move along" for us, but tests would not hurt.
[G1 General] kernelzilla:
This is definitely (kernel)development related, don't know why it was moved...

This is a nice way to do compressed ramdisks, but if you checkout the performance results they list on the google code site, it's still not as good.

The patch is for kernel 2.6.34, which most mods currently don't run, theres still some issues to get sorted out (usb umount broken). We'll likely see this in the Froyo mods next month.
[G1 General] 999phonebug:
compared to pure ramdisk, which is understandable since there's (de)compression involved in zram.

however, compared to the old ramzswap...? i have no idea and doubt if there's an easy way to to benchmark ramzswap (it's a swap device).

besides there was fragmentation issue (which seems not that significant on android device) with ramzswap, not sure if it's been addressed in zram or not.

cyanogen is at 2.6.33, i think either backporting or waiting for froyo+2.6.34 will do.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] terrabytez:
Hey forum! I recently installed froyo on this beautiful nexus one. I must say I am impressed. I am having a problem getting my paid apps that were protected via DRM though. Here's the life cycle.

Purchased stock N1 with 2.1> Manual install of 2.2 from official Google servers (stock manual update)> DRM apps worked just fine.> Factory reset phone> DRM apps no longer available in market even tho I purchased them and kept receipts.

Everything else works just fine though.

Any insight to this problem would be appreciated. Thanks community!

Okay this is for people that buy their movies, music videos, songs, or what ever you have from iTunes and it puts it in a protected mp4 format called m4p.

First thing you have to do is convert the (m4p) to (mp4)

I found this freeware to be 100% perfect for this.

http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/android/download/

Note: This is a download from the official site.

It supports Mac and PC.

An app on he market I really enjoy that plays mp4s is Meridian

You can DL it for free on the Android Market.

If you want a movie to test this out PM me.

Just thought I would let you in on my research.

Thanks

**EDIT**

I found a better app. Its called Zimly Media Player.

http://www.appbrain.com/app/nc.zimme

Its scales the videos! and it doesn't have lag.

but the downfall is it wont automatically know where you were last.

I'll talk to the DEV an see what he can do for the next update.

I apologize if this is a stupid question but..

What do I need to do to make TAB auto complete.. I'm getting sick and tired of typing commands and having typos.

for example typing

ln -s /sd-ext/sms/mmssms.db /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/

was a pain to type.. if only I had a simple TAB auto complete option..

Anyone got any ideas of what I can do?

Also was it a bad idea to symlink my sms's and subsequent attachments to the sd-ext?

Are there any other things I can try besides setcpu

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sebyx31:
My config

Here is my configuration, it's pretty fast :

Own compiled CM-kernel with:

- OC up to 614MHz (595MHz appears to be the best)

- BFS 318 (boosts up the system)

I currently have two issues with it:

- Sometimes, bootanimation is displayed twice (I'm investigating on this)

- When activating Compcache from SpareParts, a kernel panic occurs (but compcache works normally after the reboot)

Compcache activated

No Swap

NO AutoKiller, TaskKillers, etc.

Here is a flashable update.zip you can try.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDeadWalk:
what exactly is this zip??
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahasmb:
I'm having the same problem.

I just upgraded to CM-5.0.7-DS and right after flashing the ROM (after Wipe) I noticed my HTC Dream was faster than before, but after restoring my data through MyBackup Pro I noticed that I was once again experiencing sluggish and slow performance.

I wouldn't blame MyBackup Pro, because if I didn't do the restore, I would have manually gone ahead and setup the phone with the same Home apps, data and settings that it already had.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bunu:
I use pershoot's undervolted-overclocked kernel. I use the latest setcpu always. I make the max 576 mhz and the min. 122 mhz. I set it on boot and put the CPU governor on "ondemand". I did not put any profiles and did not mess with the advanced options.

Then I use 32 mb swap, and compcache. I use the launcher known as "LauncherPro" (on the market, it is free). I use Apps2SD but all the big, heavy apps I use everyday are on my internal memory and everything else is on the ext4 partition.

I am using the ROM SuperBad v1.3 (a modded version of Cyanogen 5.0.7 but still basically the same thing.) You can flash SuperBad over Cyanogen without wiping.

I use a class 2 sdcard and my phone is SOOOOO FAST!!!!111!111!!!1!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bunu:
I never liked MyBackup Pro. It messed up my phone so much that I had to wipe and restart. Use Titanium backup to backup and when you have to restore DO NOT RESTORE ANY OF THE DATA OR YOUR HOMESCREEN.

Or just do the old fashion setting the ROM back up routine. It may take longer but the ROM is much faster that way.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDeadWalk:
does anybody know how to enable jit?

i cant find anything anywhere about how
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xelaboy:
Over on Cyanogen's forums there is a zip that makes it so you can type jit-on and jit-off.

Trust me you don't want it. There is a reason it was left out.

Not sensitivity, I got that fixed with the sticky up top, thank you very much, but I noticed on the new rom they changed the speed of the inputs.

I type using the key pad which requires me to press the same button many times and the old rom kept up just perfect, the new one.. lags majorly

any advice or any one know how to put just that one dll or driver back in?

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] shekki:
So I have a mytouch 3g 1.2 and they come stock with an 8gb Sandisk class 2 SD card. I had problems with the SD card sometimes not being read or the phone acting like there was no SD card in there when there is. I've tried reformatting it several times to no avail. I ended up calling HTC and telling them my problem. They told me that they were out of stock and they'd put me on a list to get one when they get a new shipment in. So I'm still waiting for the replacement.

However I've recently rooted my phone with Cyanogen's recent Eclair 2.1 rom, version 5.0.7 test 7, on my phone and I've had no problems with my SD card not being read or anything like that. This leads me to think that it's not that the SD card is defective but it's the vanilla cupcake OS, stock OS, that has a problem? Has anyone else had this experience before?

I recently received a myTouch 1.2 via insurance since I lost mine and I have been having this problem. Issues being read and written on. Its aggravating since I have to unmount and re insert for it to work. Its a stock 8GB microSD and I am trying to reformat it several times will update shortly

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] shekki:
So since I posted this thread I've done some reading here and there. I don't remember where I read this but I read that the problem might lie with the OS itself. I wonder if any other phones with the official stock 1.6 have this problem as well or if it's just the mytouch having this problem.

I could have sworn I posted in the Themes & Apps section last night. But after it posted, I figured I'd leave it since I can't delete my posts anyway like on other boards.

Not sure what you mean by decode/encode. I replaced the png files, signed the framework apk, and replaced the framework apk in the update.zip from Docrambone.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsixda:
Did you re-sign the update.zip after adding the APK back to it?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul22000:
No. The auto-sign says it will sign the only apk in the folder, so it wouldn't even see the update.zip.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsixda:
Hmmm ok, so now I am confused, I thought we had to sign the update.zip each time it changes.

If you can get it working, let us know what you did..
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djmcnz:
Ahh... yes, you need to sign the zip as well...

java -jar signapk.jar <your_cert.x509.pem> <your_key.pk8> <input_file_name.zip> <output_file_name.zip>

If you're using test keys it will be...

java -jar signapk.jar testkey.x509.pem testkey.pk8 <input_file_name.zip> <output_file_name.zip>

If you run this in the same directory that you ran signapk.bat in then this will work as well.

So your procedure:

Edit apk

Delete META-INF folder

Re-sign apk

Add re-signed apk to update.zip package

Sign update.zip package as above

EDIT: Oh, are you reusing an existing update.zip file?? No, don't do that. Perhaps reuse the script but just create a new zip and replicate the required directory structure, drop your files in (including the script) and sign it. If you must reuse the zip then delete all of the certificate files in the meta-inf directory but don't delete the folder structure where the update-script lives.
