sorry guys if im asking stupid questions, but recently I dont even get a reply to tell me im a noob or a douche, can anyone help? or am i just as well to wait for 1.3.2?

Sooo...yeah.

You need to remove HTC_IME_themed.apk from /system/app

It's in the first post, but you probably didn't read that.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fabioff:
Sorry, thought this Rom is based on Cyanogen aswell ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] slimjimwoods:
i did read that, im not one of them, but its not allowing me to remove it
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] descenpet:
how are you trying to remove it?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ~David:
adb remount

adb shell

rm /system/app/HTC_IME_themed.apk
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rd-Target:
Try doing a 'adb remount' before going into adb shell

Edit: Danm you beat me to it ~David :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] slimjimwoods:
aha! thankyou, I was trying to use Astro as Im new to adb, but that should do it :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] stormfury_2:
You should just be able to use yours by doing a long press in the text field and changing your input method - I have 3 or 4 keyboards available (as I use swiftkey beta mainly) should work flawlessly no need to remove the HTC mod if you don't use it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] slimjimwoods:
it wouldnt allow me to install a second Mod keyboard, it just saw it as the original keyboard and gave me the option to uninstall (which it wouldnt), as im sure you can tell, I dont know as much as I would like about it!

I guess it's because they were essentially matching apps, with slightly different modifications
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Mdk001:
I installed the HTC ime low res for 1.5 devices after removing the themed one via Titanium and now I can't see any other keyboards aside from the android and the japanese ones...perhaps it was the wrong version,since the hero is now running android 2.2?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] slimjimwoods:
you might need to re-enable the keyboard in keyboard settings,
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] slimjimwoods:
David, thankyou, keyboard is now installed :)

and now i know how to adb apk's from the system too, much appreciated!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] phlash73:
Oh, can it? I hope so! Now you've got me on the edge of my seat! ;-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] keyra74:
i'm following almost every message of this thread and i don't remember seeing someone with my brand new problem :)

when i try to download some apps from market, they stick at 100% downloaded and download disappear from notification bar

then the download bar became empty and does nothing

it doesn't happen with every apps
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jayzy1:
as a newbie:

how can I get the stock widgets: wireless/gprs/bluetooth/mobile the ones where you can swith the options to on/off

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Higgsy:
You mean the HTC sense widgets?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jayzy1:
yes exactly
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robbo990:
Goto the screen you want, Menu-Add-Widget-Power Control - then select the switches you require.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] orangeclanz:
it happen to me twice, just close the Market apps and open again, should solved, works for me. hope this help
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jayzy1:
brilliant ! many thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] TheRealHero:
Thanks for this suggestion.

I have tried this and it seems to work, but I really need that extra battery life. I have changed this back to WCDMA preferred and it seems to be ok so far.

Am I using the correct radio? Where do I find the updated radios?

Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
Welcome to Google Market being a bastard.

Just pushed a release candidate of 1.4.0 to my phone... :o

EDIT: ^ that is totally not the smiley I wanted.

Who said it wasn't based off the Cyanogen repo?

Tell you one thing though the difference between Froyd and the Hero nightly is well, night and day.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] TheRealHero:
I have found a way to fix the email problem. Rather than marking the emails as read, if you actually open them and load content, this seems to go away.

Zoomfield works fine, thanks. It is a shame that Hero does not support LWP. Is this the case with all ROMs? There is an aquarium one that I really liked, would be beautiful if it worked.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] TheRealHero:
Can you tell us newbies a bit more about how to go about these and what it actually does? Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] maddog497:
Well, I pretty new at this as well, but I will try and hopefully if I mess up someone here will correct me.....

With the last FroydVillian roms (and some others) they are letting us choose which kernel to run. (Flash your rom, then flash your desired kernel) The higher the number the more overclocking you are getting from your phone. The more overclocking the greater the chance of instability. Just like no two engines run identical, no to Hero's are either. While your phone may work perfect with the high kernel 19-768 mine may not. Mine usually runs 19-691 (haven't tried anything higher) but for some reason it didn't like that kernel in the last updated version. (I don't know that for fact, just my hunch!!!)

In theory the 19-729 kernel should run faster then 19-691 kernel. Though I'm not sure how much of a difference you would see.

Is that what you are asking. I hope so I went on and on about nothing?????
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] BuzzFuzz:
What about FriendStream apk. It is possible to install/push this application?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ziggy1001:
So if i look out the window in about 10 mins i'll see you running around naked with my new pony!:p
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] liverpoolfchero:
So is the 1. 3. 2 actually coming out today like You said?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Gage_Hero:
I was in IRC on the Villain site and no 1.3.2 is not coming out they are going straight to 1.4.0 eta unknown......
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bugeyes:
:eek::rolleyes::eek::rolleyes::rolleyes:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ShiDi:
WooT.. WOoOT 1.4.0 rolling out sooon!! Yeahh!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] stormfury_2:
Looking forward to this next release - for some reason it didn't want to GPS lock for me tonight :( hopeful that a fix with the latest build. Still my preferred ROM of use right now though :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] skyfisker:
ohhhhh, we'r on a version racing~
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
FroydVillain 1.4.0 has landed.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] liverpoolfchero:
Halleluja praise villain team! Downloading now thanks in advance :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Noppes123:
Great work VillainTeam! I wanted to do a wipe/flash and battery calibration anyway, so might as weel be with the latest and the greatest. D/L'ing...:D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Haizum74:
That issue with the music player, I have had it again and it still freezes and becomes unresponsive (music widget) and lags the phone. Any possibility there is a bug in the music app. Either that or my Hero doesnt like blues. :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Haizum74:
Have you tried Root Explorer?

EDIT, SOrry for the DP (no, not that tut)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bugeyes:
second that!

cant wait to try this........**** got visitors..........Feck em! :cool:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Noppes123:
Great work! Downloading as I type...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ganii:
What about Google Backup/Restore problem?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
Requires Google to fix so I'd still avoid it.

Speaking of themes, I've added the Galaxy S theme to the OP. It's sweeeet.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] AroArecki:
Villain Team Rulez...awesome roms, I'm not worthy :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Mdk001:
So,this is safe for everydays' use?

Even if I desperately need my phone as GPS navigator?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
I tested it by going somewhere that I knew my way to along with Google Navigation. Worked fine. GPS lock is a bit faster as I've enabled the options that use cell towers to get a quick location fix too.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] asad510:
hi there as im downloading may i ask is the usb problem fixed
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Mdk001:
I usually use Copilot,but as long as the GPS works fine I'm ok
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ganii:
Yes,it`s really nice,but I want to port this again

for 1.3.0.

INSANE, already another update!

This is GREAT!

Thanks a lot ninpo for your hard work!

I looked forward to this because of the GPS reboots, gonna have some fun with it now :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] raz-or:
Great work with 1.2.0 btw,

Will us 352ers need to wait for a separate batch of kernels?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] asad510:
LOL hahahhaha u jokka
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] zorxd:
:eek:

Damn it, who's the idiot who asked for that :p

Why buy a phone with 2 leds if you only want 1 to be used? :p

Oh well, I guess others have different tastes :D

At least it's better than no led at all, but I was with you on this one.

Anyways I will stop complaining and try this new ROM which looks very promising. Thanks for your work, again!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ropster:
Loverly, on its way down now:D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Noppes123:
Quick question while the phone is booting into 1.3.0... Does this ROM include the latest GApps with the new Gmail app?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] melvie:

i read about google backup/restore problem. where do you have google backup hidden on froyo? is that backup factory set on?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Json_81:
Rndis works in linux but not OS X.

I will try and report back.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] melvie:
At the start when you did a full wipe it will be asked for using google backup..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Mdk001:
Any chance for the HTC sms and camera apps to be included to replace the default ones?

Actually,I'd just be happy if someone had the .apk for those (as long as installing them was enough)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
+1

the cool glowing trackball in the stock sense rom was one of the nicest features of my original hero. I loved that in your rom...

oh well, some people have zero taste. but whoever is the vocal majority must win of course.

I dont want to download the whole rom just to check to see if it has gtalk on it lol he is a l little slow when it comes to this

It's there. But it is called Talk, not GTalk. So it's in the Ts

3G/H Indicator Fail

Hi!

I've installed this rom and I think tha is really good but I found one missing thing from the previous version because now I can't find any difference betwen 3G (UMTS) and the HSDPA Network.

I think the problem is in the framework.apk. Inside that apk exist one 'xml (bools.xml inside the folder /res/values/) who let that indicator run correctly.

In the line 13:

<bool name="config_hspa_data_distinguishable">false</bool>

Should say "true" instead.

I tried to recompilate but doesn't work and I don't know what I doing wrong.

Is possible to make an update.zip with this solution?

Thanks for all and apologizes for muy very bad english
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] yasin12:
You have to go into system then app and mount as r/w. Then just remove the app and reboot your phone just in case.

Btw downloading this right now can't wait. Thanks for all your hard work team villain

Google Services Framework error

First of all, thank you, Villain team, for this great rom. I was enjoying 1.2.2 and thought I'd try 1.3.0.

Unfortunately, even after a full wipe, I cannot get past the "Welcome to HTC Hero" screen as I keep receiving this error when trying to skip past signing into my Google account:

"Sorry!

The application Google Services Framework (processcom.google.process.gapps) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."

I press "Force Close" and it sends me right back to the welcome screen. Any idea what I might be doing wrong?

Thanks again.

Faster GPS? Good lord, my Hero is going to start preemptively locking on sats soon :p

I'll be about to touch the Google Maps shortcut and a popup will come up along the lines of "Shadap! I'm already on it..."

still can't get it working.. :( whenever i tap on "Tethering" in wireless & networks menu, i'm getting FC on com.android.settings :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] maddog497:
Ninpo/Hacre,

Thank you for all your work, HOWEVER 2 things.....

1) I had just convinced my wife that I needed to spend some money on the new HTC Desire. But after using your rom 1.2.2 ( and now downloading 1.3) I truly believe getting the desire would be a downgrade!!!!!!! ( I know, I could root and flash roms on the desire too, but the point is now I don't need to).

2) I was very very very happy with 1.2.2 but if your putting up a new version then I am up for a full wipe and a new flash. :cool:

The fact that this thread is already over 60 posts should be a compliment to your team. ( I only wish more would take the time to read all of them before posting questions)

Once I have 1.3 up and running I will be sending a little of the money you saved me to your team.

Keep up the great work. (HTC could learn much from your team)

Thanks again

Jim
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Did you wipe data before flashing? I'm able to use this menu fine, though I've not tested tether yet tbh.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
I had to LOL at this. BTW, there will be VillainROM for the desire soon, so you can still buy one, then be a man of 2 devices :P

And whilst it would be awesome if everyone would read the comedy proserelease notes, that's half the fun, and where would the fun be. I'm still waiting for someone to join IRC with an overclocking issue, to watch the promised extreme ridiculation (if that's even a word)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rustynuts34:

Ok i have got serious problem...don't know why but WorldWar game is restarted which mean to me wasted 4 months of playing. Never had such a problem before. I could change ROMs between 1.5 and 2.1 without any problems. When I restored nandroid backup WorldWar Game was fine. I also noticed wavesecure is trying to register my number again. It's maybe funny problem but for me it's the reason i can't use this ROM :/ Help
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Regarding WS: You need to use titanium backup to backup its settings, then restore them after flashing, since they had a security issue and had to change how this worked till they fix it.

Again, try doing titanium on your game, then see if it works after a restore???
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ridhavm:
You guys rock!!! Amazing work, Everything's working perfectly fine or atleast everything i used so far :-)

Have put my phone outside for the past 40mins - can't get a GPS fix. According to GPS Status it can see between 5 and 8 satellites.

Worked fine in 1.2.2
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
You're gonna hate me....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Foka002:
Yeah, I always use titanium backup and in this case it's not restoring my worldwar data. Maybe it's something to do with Titanium ? Did anyone have the same problem ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] krispijn_s:
No.. don't say it.. let me guess... there's an update coming? :D

EDIT: 1.3.0 runs smoothly btw. nice job, I no longer have to push parts ^_^
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ganii:
Why :confused:

Froyd 1.3.1 comes?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
Because I just released a 1.3.1 OTA update (check your updater) and I'm currently hunting down the Wired Tethering crash which will probably take us to 1.3.2 lol. :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ricostuart:
no worries.. just goto settings (after leveling up to lev2) and import again. back to normal.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] blackplatypus:
nice work hacre, love the new framework features, especially the new "reboot settings".
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ganii:
Oh no,framework update,so I have to port again :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] phlash73:
Hacre, you never cease to amaze me... a couple of days ago, I was thinnking to myself "damn, wouldn't it be nice to be able to reboot into recovery without having to hold down the button?" I didnt post about it cause I figured it was too minor to bother about tho...

Lo and behold, I go to reboot after Titanium restore and what do you think I find? :D

hats off to you (again :p ) and all your psychicness!! :)

EDIT: On another note, I'm still getting the gapps fc when syncing calendar, and I cant seem to restore my Launcher pro plus backup (from within LPP). it keeps telling me that my sdcard isnt available. I also cant perform another backup with same error. If these are addressed in 1.3.1 then pls ignore
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] asad510:
hacree can u help my usb problem
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
gapps FC should be fixed in 1.3.1 OTA update. Not sure about the SD card seems to work fine here?

I don't know what your USB problem is.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thepittbull:
Hi Hacre,

Was about to flash the galaxy theme when I saw this. Would it be alright to flash the galaxy theme after the 1.3.1 ota?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
Noooo. Lol. Well you can if you don't give a snot about the H icon.

Let me chase down this Tethering bug before flashing any themes unless of course you don't use tethering either. In which case go nuts! :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thepittbull:
Hahaha.... thanks mate
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] asad510:
hacree can u tellme a fix about my usb problem
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ~David:
Asking the same question every 30 minutes isn't going to change the fact that you haven't explained what your USB problem is lol

Can I have a pony?

No.

Can I have a pony?

No.

Can I have a pony?

No.

Can I have a pony?

No.

Can I have a pony?

Sure.

Really!?!

No.

Unfortunately, I'm still having issues using the OTA Updater. Despite my best efforts (read: pushing the "Check now" button repeatedly as fast as humanly possible), it continues to say "Check for updates failed".

I've tried over both WiFi and 3G, and tried changing my DNS servers to OpenDNS; no dice.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] phlash73:
OK, this is strange then. I just nandroided back about 4 hours to 1.2.2, deleted my LP backup folder, performed a backup homescreens and settings with no problem. FF to 30 mins ago to my completed 1.3.0 install, try to restore backup and get "an error occured while trying to restore backup. Please make sure the SD card is available"

anyone else experience this, or did I gibble my install along the way somewhere? I'm gonna install the OTA update and see it that fixes it

EDIT: RESOLVED.

OK, Well like 98% of all computer related problems in the world, if you kick it, (or reinstall), the problem seems to vanish..:D

near as I can tell, something happened when I did Titanium restore of system data.
