Had 10.2.1 installed since it's release.

At some point this morning, it decided that my APN settings were incorrect, and dropped my data connection.

I rolled back to 10.1 and the connection was re-established.

I then went back to 10.2.1 and still had a data connection. This lasted a few hours, until now, when I am getting the message "connection failed due to incorrect apn setting" under "Mobile Network"

-----------------------EDIT-----------------------

I turned "Mobile Network" off, rebooted phone and then re-enabled "Mobile network". I now have a data connection.

I had also lost MMS (without changing any settings) - even when I did have a data connection. This is now working too.

Any idea why it was lost in the first place???
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
No need then to have wiped for that. Try the new xda_mod keyboard from this site (i think you just need to search for it or google it). Use the "low" one, as high is for nexus etc.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
I will release the new app as update.zip as well as OTA, so you can try it again.

BTW, we also publish OTA updates at www.villainrom.co.uk/ota too, for if you choose not to use the OTA app (it's not for everyone, especially if people don't have unlimited data etc.)

I'll get my things sorted out and package it up soon... ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Wow. Weird. Which country and network are you? this seems strange, so i wonder if anyone else has your same network etc. working fine...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] filipharvey:
This was O2 UK, which inadvertently seems to be the hardest to get MMS working with too!

My data connection seems to be stable for now, I'll report back if it relapses!

I still get the issue with receiving massively compressed images in MMS, but that seems to be an issue with O2 as opposed to any of the ROMs, as it was an issue when running stock.

(You get sent a 30k image but O2 compresses it as they don't recognise the phone, and you receive it as a useless 3k thumbnail :mad:)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tolis626:
Hi all!

First off,a big bravo to nprussel and all of VillainTeam for putting together such a great ROM!It's the first custom ROM I use on my Hero 'cause I can't flash many different ROMs as it's my everyday phone and can't afford not having it available every minute of the day.

However I am facing one minor issue.In the weather app I get my city as My Location alright,but I cannot get any weather data.I have enabled location services etc,but I just can't get any weather data.My location is Amalias,Greece.When I try to add it as a new city it doesn't appear in the search results,but the Cupcake stock ROM also wouldn't find it when searching but had it available as my location.I also seem unable to determine another city as my location so that it will appear in my homescreen.

If you have any idea please inform me!Thanks in advance!

I'd like to move over from the Roufi ROM to official Villain. There was an update script on the Roufi thread, but that thread is closed now.

Does anyone have the URL to the script which converts Roufi to Villain?

Or is there an updater to get to 10.2.1? Any recommendations?

Sorry if this is a bit of a noob question, but I have been trying to skim through 75 pages of this thread to find a simple answer to my question. As well as trying to find the link which was up on the weekend.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Well, there's an experimental one I use, from ninpo. It's really good :)

Get it on OTA by turning on experimental updates. Open the VillainROM Updater app and press menu, then select middle button. Then go to ROM Update settings and tick the experimental box. Then check again.

Take "Ninpo's Battery Life Improvement".
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Menelaoxda:
Thanks, I'll try immediatly!

I hope that the updator don't give me the recovery error.

You can still flash the downloads manually, just move them from the updater file on your sd card to the root and flash as normal.

You will need to go settings and tick "experimental updates" to see other things

How to set CPU clock at 710Mhz??

Hi.

How can I get the kernel to clock @ 710Mhz?

My hero feels oh so slightly laggy at 691Mhz but at 710Mhz it feels like a HTC Desire! Can I modify a Kernel parameter to achieve this or does the kernel need to be recompiled?

Either way...how do I do that? (I'm a Linux SysAdmin so I'm not afraid of getting stuck in.)

Thanks for all your hard word!

Shyrka
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
You don't need to do that, you can just flash Kendon's "no whining" kernel, or ninpo's excellent kernel, both are listed as experimental updates in the OTA app.

So , i rooted with success the phone ,and puted the recouvry

with img RA 1.6.2 and i flashed it with ahero rom and all good with signal 3G, and with herodroid rom and so good with signal 3G, but when i flash with vilain rom 10.1 or 10;2 all work good but without 3G , note that i have wiped all before ,

Now i just flashed with herodroid ROM and the signal of 3G work fine.

Hi there! :cool:

Using this rom for the last few days and it's working really great!

But i have 2 questions:

1. Is it possible to turn of the weather animation? It makes the phone really really slow during the animation!

2. When i install copilot 8 it says at the startup: can't acces library :(

i've heard this is because it's not compatible yet with android 2.1, but is there a fix available or something that makes copilot work again?

Thanks in advance! :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
1) Yes, remove the clock widget, and add it back and then it should have a tickbox saying "full screen weather" just untick it.

2) if you use the legal version of co-pilot it works (or so I have heard) I don't use it myself so sorry if you do have the legal version and it still doesn't work :)

Proud to announce that I am running with JIT enabled,a freaky super-wow 749MHz overclocking using Ninpo's BFS kernel and a Linpack score of 5.054Mflops!AND it is very stable.In fact more stable than stock 1.5 and standard VillainROM 10 kernel @693MHz.

One question though.Why can't my hero overclock to the maximum 768MHz?I am so close with 749,but overclock widget just won't make it 768 for me!It does not crash,restart or anything like that,it just stays at 749.Any help greatly appreciated!

Oh,and temperatures with standard VR 10 kernel @693MHz ranged from 33 to 43 degrees Celsius,while with Ninpo's kernel @749MHz from 29 to 40.Pretty impressive if you ask me!
