Will we have to wipe everything?

Will you be able to remove timestamp on camera?

Thank again for great work.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
Thanks for reminding me about the camera issue, I was just about to flash the last build.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Maharifu:
And please verify that pictures are sharp when zoomed in gallery. This is also an issue in other roms based on 5.0.8.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
Timestamp fixed :p And pictures are sharp.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Maharifu:
Wow, you are good!! :D Thanks, man!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
USB-tethering fixed!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Manny-:
Great ROM man I'm using this atm, love the live wallpapers, got 28.3FPS on neocore, overall love the ROM, keep up the good work ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pmicho:
Please make sure GPS is working ok. It was unstable on other builds.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
Build-7 is ready. I just have to make some final checking, screenshots and open the new topic... 30 minutes?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kosmiq:
Awesome! No timestamp (not that it actually is a dealbreaker for me, more that it is stable :p). Fixed USB-tethering you say, as in the built-in option or do you still need do start it through an app (like the one I linked a few pages back?).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] embrion:
Kernel with ipfilter owner module? :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kad3t:
You are a GOD! ^__^
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
As promised, all my kernels will include it ;)

Tethering without any 3rd party app.

Great, thanks :)

Im porting the Suavesque theme to VanillaEclair 4.0.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kad3t:
Interesting... Would you consider doing it for more recent VE5?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hund:
Ofc. I'll keep it updated to any newer stable builds of VanillaEclair. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kad3t:
Great! I'm not gonna lie and say that I will definitely use it but I WILL give it a whirl and decide based on my feelings when I see it running. ^__^
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] saiho:
Hi, that is great! But how to use it? Just flash it, and everything will done automatically?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hund:
Yepp. Do an nandroid backup before.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] msnxda:
Thank you!

A dark bar was all i was looking for

Couldnt get any metamorph to work with VE, but this flashable does the job.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hund:
Im glad you like it. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] red_jalapeno:
Has anyone been able to change the "Notification ticker color", etc, using the supplied Spare Parts application? I seem unable to get it to work, no matter what I try. I've even tried making just one change in Spare Parts and then reboot the phone just after, but it doesn't seem to work. Android still keeps its own colors.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hund:
It didnt work very well for me neither. But in the upcoming 5.0 ROM it works perfect. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] saiho:
Thanks! is that all app icons can be changed into the way in your pics?

Because someone has mentioned about the problem on modifying stock app icons, and another problem when update apps when their icons have been changed.

But I can not find the answers.

I'm going to try your design after the VE5 final is out. If your theme is working well, i would probbly keep it, because its great.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hund:
What you see is what you get. :)

I have never ocurred any problems with custom icons and I've never seen anyone else either. I'm guessing it works as long as the files are signed.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mhendrikx:
I'm getting an error while flashing: "copy_dir PACKAGE:system SYSTEM:"

What can I do about that?

Edit: Downloaded it again, flashed ok. Now booting :D

Edit 2: Now hangs @ lockscreen / enter code :( tried booting multiple time...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hund:
That happend to a friend to. I have no idea why, but I'll check it out.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hajimba:
Hi all,

I have been setting>wireless> mobile network > data roaming and others is disable. But 3g icon still work at bar. How do close 3g network?

My phone is HTC Hero.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Maharifu:
Android Vanilla roms do not have the option to turn 3g off. You will have to use a third party app for that. A good one is APNdroid, which is available for free in the market.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hajimba:
Thank you. APNdroid is work! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] raikan123:
mine could not show contacts in sms. anyone know the solution for this ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] banana9:
I have same problem.

I solve it by instaling "Handcent SMS", which work perfect.

Sorry, not a solved real problem but work to me,..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
I still say this is the best vanilla rom for the gsm hero.

It's still more stable for me than ve5, and cmh doesn't seem to like running well on my system.

I'm reflashing this again for my next trip out of town :-)

cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] palokalo:
True.. best vanilla rom
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pmicho:
Same here. I agree.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jnk1348:
Yeah, I tried several alternative roms, but I always go back to VE4.0. Most stable and fastest rom IMHO.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Judim:
I'm back to VE4.0 also.

Stable!

How to enable 3g

Hi

Where an this rom can i enable 3g?

I cannot hold the power button & there is not a shortcut??

Any1 help??

Thanks

Love the ROM!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] saiho:
Stability VS Performance

when I was using NAS kernel(691/176), my hero got waking up problem and the screen even suddenly black off(not turn into sleep mode) when i was doing normal work on it(sometimes i just waked it and it black off in half second).

So, i flashed the lokernel as suggested. after that i found its performance and smoothness droped alot, however, it's pretty stable so far.

Is there anyway to get rid of the waking up and black off problems without sacrificing Performance. thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MarkBM:
For the first time is flashed my device with a custom rom and it works like a charm.

Except for one thing...I can´t turn on my bluetooth. Only direct after a reboot, but when I turn it off and like to turn it on again after a couple of hours it refuses.

Anyone an idea?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
Agreed. A 245/691 kernel is much needed for this rom. Anyone know of a compatible one?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
Maybe a bad idea, but reflashing the rom might do it. I don't know for sure though ... could be waste of your time. Bt is fine for me ...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MarkBM:
Not sure what happened, but it seems to be ok now. When the problem returns I'll try to flash the rom again.

I didn't updated my radio at first, now I did, can this be of any influence? Or has this only to do with the reception of 3g and gsm signals?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] saiho:
I found one 264/691 kernel in CMH 1.4.3 thread (it also come from CyanogenMod) and I flashed it. so far everything is fine except my hero browser doesn't support FLASH anymore. Any idea?

I will try wipe and reflash everything again to see if it help.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sizanx:
hey, installed it, but I don't know why but Launcher Pro is totally slow on my phone. And I can't change the clock of my CPU in overclock widget it's just says 518 :( Installed the regular one, then linkernel and installed the default kernal on top of that.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hikui:
Don't use overclock widget. It doesn't work with the default kernel. You have to flash the free kernel if you want to use overclock widget. But I suggest you just uninstall the widget and use the default kernel at 691mhz.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fluke2k:
After been through my fair share of different ROMs over the time (including your VanillaEclair 5.0) I installed VanillaEclair 4.0 and I have to hand it to you.. THIS is the best ROM I've tried yet. It's very snappy and feels just "right".

I haven't had any troubles so far (except the nandroid ext backup trouble)

Thank you SO much for your effort RaduG. Keep up the excellent work!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] comphotostian:
I have problem with proximity sensor on this rom. It doesn't work. Is there any fix for that? I keep on pressing "Hold" button with my ear when I'm calling someone :mad:

Don't wanna change rom, because everything else works perfect :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Eh? Hero doesn't have a proximity sensor. That's the droid eris.

Or do you mean the app?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] comphotostian:
I thought Light sensor :)

Is there any other way to turn the screen of while calling?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lukesky:
No. u can probably remove the original phone.apk and replace it with another version that doesn't have the pause/hold button at such a ridiculous place.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] comphotostian:
Thanks. Now just have to phone.apk like this :D

recovery boot?!

Hello,

Not to sound stupid, but how do I flash from this ROM (I love it but am selling the phone). When I try to get into recovery mode, it basically just gives me the option of clearing data and that is all, I can't get to a point where I can do a backup or flash the original sense rom back on.

Any help would be really really good.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lukesky:
what kind of recovery are you using? if u're using a proper recovery like AmonRA or ClockWorkMod, there should be a lot more options than just clearing data
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mgolder:
That, I'm not entirely certain of (I started trying to remove the rom late the other night). I have probably missed a step or something. I just remember it being easier to get from sense to this rom than it has been to get back to sense so far.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Dark Emotion:
wow ,this rom is only 56 mb?

Corporate Calender Exchange

Hi!

I really enjoy this Rom, thouch I have a problem. I have changed to Launcher pro which makes it really faster.

Though the corporate Calender doesn´t seem to work.

I have Exchange on my work and really need to get this going.

Any idea´s anyone?

THX
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
Hello,

This ROM is pretty old and out of date. You should flash TastyFroyo, which is my latest 2.2 Froyo ROM.

Have fun.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
or just go this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6941402&postcount=548

and download and install corcal.apk. gorcal too is for something useful in exchange, I don't recall what. but corcal always did hte calendar trick for me.

cheers,

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] socker22:

I tried it out, but I only get that the process com.motorola.calendar for the program corporate calendar stopped unexpectible, try again.

Why can not I change the keyboard.

I've tried it with Swype and touch input, but it is always the Android keyboard.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
go into settings, find the keyboard one (it's keyboard and somethign else, like keyboard and locale or something like that). scroll down and you'll see checkboxes for each of your newly installed alternative keyboards, checkmark each one. exit settings.

go into something where you type. long press on a text field. choose "input method" or whatever the option is called...

select your new keyboard. wait a few seconds. if you don't see it yet, tap the textbox and wait a few more seconds. hopefully it'll come up and if it does it should be your default keyboard until you change again using a long-press in textbox.

FYI that is android fundamental stuff - it's not specific to this rom - any keyboard you download or install should come with instructions telling you to do this, either in the app itself or on the support website for the keyboard you downloaded.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fubuday:
Many many thanks ..... its works.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] saj222:
Anyone have a working link to VanillaEclair 4.0 NAS @ 691/176? Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
interested in trying the fastest hero rom around, eh?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] saj222:
Fastest ROM around? I hope so. :D

Do you use the stock kernel, or something else?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
always fly 11c with this baby. titanium backup doesn't seem to restore to this rom very well, but if you have the patience to install your apks clean and/or from market then you will have the fastest rom you can run on the hero.

it's iPhone-fast imho. instant response with all major features.

using a cool free launcher like "QQ Launcher Pro" from the market gives a nice updated experience (like miui) with scrollable widgets etc and is also insanely fast.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] untitledmangxg:

Is this rom really that fast? In other performance testes I see that phones like the Desire performs much better with 2.2... I've never really thought of vanilla eclair as an option :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
yes. on the hero, the earlier the rom, as long as it's vanilla, the faster and more responsive it is. it's consistent too. there was a 1.5 aosp rom that was even faster, but 1.5 is SO limited that it's just useless these days.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tanvirashraf:

This rom is very responsive so far, especially the contacts and phone section, which I use mostly.

Had a couple of reboots but seems to be settling down now.

Wonder if any of the knowlegable people out there can tell me if the trackball fix is available as a signed zip file for installation with Amon Ra? I am not familiar with ADB.

Thanks all.

Great rom, had to download a data toggle app from the market to disable data when I switch off the wifi as I am unable to do so in settings?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
I am now on this rom, changed a lot of the stuff on it. Apps GPS Conf OpenGL and stuff like that :P And the Theme.

I will like I did in the speedmachine one make one that is all updated apps and stuff like that for the people who like that, But since I got to go to bed now I will continue on that tomorow :D

But for the rest. Smooth as butter so that is nice :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] saj222:
That sounds awesome rdejager! I like what you did in Speedmachine and am curious to see what you do here. :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
fantastic news! that kicks ass dude! go for it :-)

If you can solve a couple of issues by updating things, life will be good.

I notice one thing - I can use google nav just fine (Even current version) with this rom, but waze resets the phone. That's the opposite of my results with most GB roms where google nav blows up or locks up at some point but waze is 100% reliable. I like waze so this is frustrating, but google nav is great when it's working so it's not a big problem. Just an observation for anyone who uses waze or google nav or would like to.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
Just wondering about the current version of GMaps Nav. Is the voice stuff fast. not like a break when for me the woman is getting a coffee drinking it and then saying the next line?

Haha just noticed there is a VanillaEclair 5.0 XD Gonna check that out. :P

Ok well I made a build off that one, Gonna test it now and see how it runs. Think it will end up at 8 builds now XD

-Stock theme Basic (Full) 160 DPI

-Sense theme Basic (Full) 160 DPI

-Stock theme Basic (Full)140 DPI

-Sense theme Basic (Full) 140 DPI

-Stock theme Slim 160 DPI

-Sense theme Slim 160 DPI

-Stock theme Slim 140 DPI

-Sense theme Slim 140 DPI (The one I am going to use, And prob upload first)

I will try to get this all sorted before the end of the day but my upload speed is like crap so it will take around 2.5 hours to upload them all. When I get to that eventually.

Ok Booting the Stock theme basic one now.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
no, dude. vanilla eclair 5 isn't as fast or light or stable as vanilla eclair 4.

trust me, I was very active in the forums and with flashing when both of these roms came out a year ago or whenever. Unless a modern kernel can improve VE5 somehow then VE4 is faster, more responsive, and less likely to reset spontaneously.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
How do you all get spontaneous reboots XD Never get them XD.

But yea I got V4 already done so I can use those if people would prefer that :P Gonna test some more and then I will decide.

And yea I know you where like always online and stalking everyone XD

I did notice that somehow it is not made up like it says all over XDA to change some colors XD

EDIT:

Ok I am back at the number 4 one. Gonna see if the zips I made are still the correct ones XD and then if so I will upload it all. Well atleast 2 before I go to bed XD
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
cool! haha, I'm not stalking you. I would never do that! By the way, that sock you were looking for is beside your bed.

no, the other side of your bed.

Yep, you found it :-)

OK about Froyo?!?!?!? Ha! Ha! Ha!

Enjoy your Coke(s) :cool:

Make sure the copy of the Phone.APK you have pushed to your tools folder on your computer is the Vanilla one (You can extract it from an earlier ROM 3.3 RC2 I believe!). When you push it to your phone, you may have to restart your phone or if you use a PIN on your SIM card you will need to re-enter if the Phone.apk has changed successfully.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] donatienus:
I may not have the vanilla one but I don't have the 3.3 RC2 anymore. Could you please attach it if you have.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] donatienus:
I may have wrong about the app. I don't want buttons on screen during call. I prefer push "menu button" to appear options. Is really the app phone.apk which can do this ?

Or maybe, i don't push correctly. In recovery, i do this :

C:\android-sdk-windows\tools>adb push Phone.apk /system/app

1183 KB/s (796660 bytes in 0.657s).

thanks a lot for your help.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Marcehh:

I have a read-only fail !!

C:\android-sdk-windows\tools>adb push Phone.apk /system/app

failed to copy 'Phone.apk' to '/system/app/Phone.apk': Read-only file system

Can you give me the exact way to go!

thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
adb remount

adb push Phone.apk /system/app

Thanks for your donations!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] masterpfa:
Make sure you copy Phone.apk to the following folder

C:\android-sdk-windows\tools

Then on your PC with your phone on and running as normal type the following commands

C:\android-sdk-windows\tools>adb remount

remount succeeded

C:\android-sdk-windows\tools>adb push Phone.apk /system/app

789 KB/s (1499819 bytes in 1.855s)

C:\tools>

This apk would then have been "pushed" to your phone
