Hi, as explained before i very happy to this rom, working fine.

But, i have a problem with HTC sync 3 installed on my computer.

When i connect my phone, it was detected and i have the USB icon who appear in the taskbar in the left corner of my phone screen.

But in this bar i have only two choises :

1) Connected to an USB Cable

2) Debbuging mode

I did not have the third line : HTC Sync and it's impossible for me to connect my phone to HTC sync.

Thank you in advance for your help
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbrucemtl:
It seems your Hero has a sticky switch... There is a tiny switch in side the headphone jack... maybe it is not releasing when you unplug. I have not had this problem, when I unplug headphones the icon goes away and all it normal. It is strange you say it's all normal after you reboot so maybe it's not hardware related. Does it do it everytime?

Go to CyanogenMod setting - sound settings - select always play on speaker for each item

The head phone jack is set to only play sounds through the headphones when connected... you can change this in Cyanogenmod settings.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbrucemtl:
As I have explained before... :) This is not an HTC ROM so HTC Sync 3 will not work.

Use google contact to sync because this is a Google Android ROM. Thank you.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] reza_baher2001:
thanks but i did't fix that...

yeah everytime that i plugged headphones it happens !!!

i'm sure this is not hardware issue!!

wer is the link for download update8???!!!!!

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] maddog497:
Just to let you know, I had the same issue happen today with another rom!!! Funny thing is, when I noticed no service, a few seconds later I had a call come in and it was clear as could be!!! I then tried data and nothing was working except phone calls even though my strength icon had no bars and an X. And my lock screen said no service.

Not sure if it was just a coincident or not but I was in settings/wireless and Network/mobile networks/network operators and it searched for some time and then my service came back?????

Prior to getting in that far I noticed my signal strength was -69dBm? No mobile network.

Anyway, I am going to switch radio's and see what happens?

I didn't want you chasing something that has nothing to do with your work.

Nice job!

I just wanted to say BIG thanks for this amazing ROM! I've been using it for a couple of days now and just found one minor thing: I sometimes have random dropouts of the WLAN connection and it seems like it restarts the WLAN service.

Might be a radio issue? I use 63.18.55.06PU_6.35.15.14.

Otherwise, everything's smooth :D

Greetings
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbrucemtl:
Thank for the info... let me know how it goes with a new radio... I have had problems with some of the newest radios and service dropping...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] maddog497:
I will be switching back to your rom first thing tomorrow morning (it's been a very long day today, and have no energy to do it now, lol)

I will also change my radio, and will let you know.

Keep up the great work.

I've noticed much higher battery use with this version...don't know if it only on this rom. At the moment I unplugged after a full charge 4 hrs ago and am down to 50% - no phone calls, wifi and GPS off (phone pretty much idle). Top 3 battery use are Android OS 62%, Display 12%, Android System 5%. I use Watchdog to trap apps using too much CPU. This is happening most days now but have never had battery problems in the last 14 months and have been using fusion rom exclusively since April/May (as it's so good normally). Any thoughts?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbrucemtl:
Check your display settings is auto rotate checked or unchecked...

If you disable auto rotate the akmd process will drain battery... you can leave auto rotate on and disable rotation in the cyanogenmod settings as a work around.

If this is not the case... download os monitor and see that is the problem

after update 8 i can't install apk's with terminal.. "cp /sdcard/DigitalClock.apk /system/app/" worked on update 7, but now i only get this message "read-only file system".. is there a way to get this apk in to system/app without a pc?

edit: i'm using su in terminal first...

I installed below package for arabic support. but phone hung in booting on hero logo. I've made a nand+ext backup. but after restoring the backup it hung again on hero logo.

Why this problem ocurred? how restore my backup?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=790255
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbrucemtl:
Yes you need to remount the file system in terminal first...

mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbrucemtl:
This package replaces two pre linked libraries and there is no Hero spacific versions only generic so that could be why it does not boot... as for the back up restoring do a full wipe and try again...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] asm0diel:
Please include two things:

a) a File Explorer so I can install Titanium Backup before typing my (quite long) Google password

b) Polish dictionarys in the default keyboard

-> MAN this ROM feels fast, keep it up!

Does this rom (update 8) provide root access for android 2.2.1 ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbrucemtl:
Yes they all do :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] turfadic:
I have been using this ROM for about 4 days now... without recharging my Hero! I rooted my phone just last week (I am a sales rep, not a computer guru) and tried a few ROMs before this one but I am sticking with this one now. The battery life is pretty good versus the Stock Telus Hero ROM.

The only things I am missing is the speed dial & SmartDial features on the dialer. Any chance this could be added?

Merci beaucoup!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DonNaWaF:
hi i flashed below package for arabic support. but my hero hung in booting on hero logo .. but in update 7 it was working and its for cyanogen roms for hero can you find whats the problem plz help

the zip file

***.mediafire.***/?of332jencw3dr96

add www ... com >>im sorry i cant post url im new

thanks for the great rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbrucemtl:
You can install dialer one from the market I hear it's good. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] turfadic:
I tried it. It is OK but then, along with Skype, you end up having 3 dialers and you get prompted too often to my taste as to which one to use every time you want to make a call. I ended up removing both Dialer One & Skype so that it becomes cleaner when you make calls...

That being said, I can definitively get by just the way it is. I really enjoy this ROM. It was food for thought, when you have some time to kill, like if you had plenty of that lying around... :)

Thanks again.

Google-apps not working

I installed update 8 yesterday and noticed that none of the Google-apps (Maps, GMail, Voice-search, ...) are working :( I checked my ext-partition - as suggested anywhere before - for existing old versions, but the partition is completely empty. Updating or reinstalling these apps from the market fails, even if I delete the apps before in Titanium (well, Maps I got working this way, but not the others).

Any ideas?

Apart from that the ROM is really good, even faster than update 7!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sentimex:
way to go

Switched from villain to update 8, everything works, it's fast, I'm sticking with this ROM. THANKS.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] popup89:
try to reboot ure phone after delete those apps, then install from market.. it worked for me :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nospoftombl:
OK, thanks, I will try that.

Edit:

Wiped again and reinstalled update 8 and now all is fine !!! Perhaps the cause was in the first time - against the advice from rbrucemtl - trying to do the google setup with the wizard, which failed.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] popup89:
no problem. but might i ask if you can update gmail and the other google apps? i fint it kind of uncool to have to delete those apps, restart my phone and then install the updated app..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DonNaWaF:
rbrucemtl come on help i am stock with update 7 dont leave me without help >>plz
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jaikat:
a thank you note

this is only the second froyo rom i'v tried here and i think its a keeper..

after deleting many stuff i don't really use(google voice, talk, genie, maps(installed brut again, among others) i ended up with about 120 mb of free ram, then i installed snowstorm(weather app), superdial, notcalllog, setcpu, all of which are in the ignore list of taskiller, and flashed the generic smartass kernel and set it to 176-614, i have an impressively fast froyo, with battery life that could easily normally run till the end of the day 2.

what can i say, i'm satisfied, but will keep my eyes open :)

as for my contribution to this and other froyo roms here, i had owned a G1 a while back, and the problem with the 3D Gallery was the same for G1 users, until one guy (Cannon) came up with an Eclair rom that had a working 3D Gallery, believe it or not, i copied that file to my sd, deleted the 3d Gallery that came with fusion rom, copied Cannon's version to /system/app, and wallaa.. it works

the only way i could get it to show the jerkiness when rotating was when i come out from playing a video, and even then i tilt the phone to rotate again and its back to normal, which is good enough if you ask me...

anyway the file is below, feel free to try it out.. and good luck

and of course, many thanks to rbrucemtl for his work on this respectable rom.

btw, i'm on update 7 if that matters
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nospoftombl:
No, I didn't do any updates from the market, the download-page doesn't show any availiable updates for those internal apps.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nospoftombl:
Calendar - no recurring events

The calendar does not show recurring events, e.g. one event on monday, 29.11.2010 08:00 - 16:00, repeating every day until friday, 3.11.2010. The calendar on the web and in thunderbird DOES SHOW this recurring event, so it#s definitely in the Google calendar.

It's also not possible to input such events on the Hero, choices are only 'regular' repeating events like every day, every weekday, yearly etc.

possible market problem solution(worth a try)

for those having market issues, launch titanium backup, press menu/more/market doctor

note: make sure market is closed(through your task killer).

good luck

I think you could do a backup and try it without... but I recommend a full wipe.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] maddog497:
I'm a flashing junky but I always come back here, lol.

I've had some weird experiences lately not related to any one rom. Twice now I had the phone reboot itself right after I answer a call? I have changed my kernel to flykernel-11c-CM-528-352 to see if that is the problem. I am also now using HERO_63.18.55.06S_6.35.17.03 for my radio.

I have been very impressed with the speed of most things in this rom. The market seems to download faster, then the apps seem to install faster and my gps loads in under 10 seconds inside my house.

Very well done. Glad you gave us another update to flash.

I should know this but will ask anyway. When I flash your rom (any rom) will the kernel change or will the last kernal I have on my phone stay? I have used a few different ones lately trying to fix my problem so I can't always remember after I flash what I had before?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbrucemtl:
Thank you...

Installing the update will replace your last kernel with the Fusion!ROM kernel.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] maddog497:
Thanks for the quick reply.

Will flash asap and have at it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] maddog497:
Wiped everything and no issues.

Everything is very fast, sitting in my basement got a lock on my gps in under 15 seconds first time.

Looks good.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] williamit:
Thanks. I am waiting for you New ROM, Your ROM is the fastest.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbrucemtl:
There is no real answer for radios... :confused:

I use 63.18.55.06SU_6.35.17.03 right now and everything is livable but these radios are not really understood by anyone but HTC... even the XDA members that pretend to understand them, don't. :rolleyes:

My guess is that radios are not really universal...although they may seem to work well for most I have strange issues like calls randomly going to voice mail with my current one but GPS works instantly... 1 out of 20 calls might just goto voice mail but I can live with it.

Using the radio 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26 I never get any lost calls like I do with the 63.18.55.06SU_6.35.17.03 but GPS refuses to work... so I still have not found a perfect radio for my service provider Fido.

You just need to try and find one you can live with... :)

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] solarbird:
Hi !

I must say that this ROM is much better than stock 2.1 but I dont know if it is faster but i think it is.

My question is: why my hero get stuck from time to time? When that happend, only thing what i can do is to pull off the battery and turn the device on again. What can i do about that?

And my secons question is: when i type, there is a bigger key above the key i have pressed. How can i turn that off?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] blackaardvark:
This ROM has everything I've been missing in previous releases (audio EQ, proxy support) and if it's as stable as any of the older ones this is gonna be a keeper.

Great job guy! If I wasn't broke I would give you some kind of reward for work this good! :D

I am having problem with this ROM or most latest FROYO

I wipe everything (all 6 in my recovery ) and even took out the SD card after flashing

The phone will freeze about in about 1 ~ 5 after booting

Any idea what going on, I like what I see in the first few min of booting.

I am trying to use FROYO but no luck so far

Are you using CPU Speed to speed up the phone ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] solarbird:
Yes. Is that a problem? I have enabled CPU settings and set minimum frequency to 352MHz, and maximum to 749Mhz. Should i turn that off?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbrucemtl:
:D

Yes this is your problem... Your max is way to high... try 691 as the max and your system will be more stable then slowly try bigger numbers. If it's unstable again reduce until you find a stable speed.

very very few heros can support the full 749MHz
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] solarbird:
Thank you very much ! Now i have turned it off and everything works very smooth.

This ROM is much better for me than 2.1 stock, and works really perfectly. And i dont miss sense. For now :D

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] solarbird:
I have one more problem

When i scan for wirelles networks, my home network ("linksys") never apper.

It IS visible, and i havent touch anything and on 2.1 stock ROM i could normaly connect to my network, enter wap key and i am on internet. Now i can't connect because i cant find my network (but other networks near me are here). What is the problem?

Sorry, it was my fault. I solved the problem changing wirelles channel from 12 to 2 (because i have messed around with channels recently)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] madwolfchin:
Thanks for putting CPUSpeed on the home page.

I found my problem

My Hero will not run at 352Mhz I wounder why

It could run at 176, 246, 480, 528, 576, 614 634, 653 (not 100% stable)

But just not at 352Mhz

Currently using 176 634 at Min Max setting on CPUSpeed and have been very stable. Not a single lockup. But when ever I try to set 352 the whole will freeze and I need to take out the battery.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbrucemtl:
Yes this is strange... as the 352MHz is the default in the kernel...

are you using FusionROM kernel or did you install some other kernel ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] madwolfchin:
I do not know if it is my phone, but it mainly happened on Froyo build

most of the 2.1 I tried do not have this problem

But for FROYO I have to avoid 352, mostly my phone will reboot when switch to 352 sometimes it freezes.

Yes after installing and running Fusion I have to switch the freq immediately after boot if not the phone will reboot or freeze, have been fine for a few day running 176 634 in min max mode
