rockplayer problem

just to let you know that neither the universal version nor the arm6 version of rockplayer can play avi video on froydvillain. I didn't try other formats

FWIW, rockplayer plays avi fine on my desire running stock froyo and it also played fine on the hero running vilainrom 12
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] reza_baher2001:
thanks for this great rom!

but i have an issue with this rom :(

in-call volume is too loww!!

when i'm in street i cant hear the other side!!!

and apparently there isn't an app in market to fix this!!

((even with ringing volume at highest level))

so is there any fix for this issue??

thanks guys :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
It's called Louder Volume Hack. Works great with Froyd 1.5.0. :) I've tested the 3.6 version, if I remember correctly.

And I think it's in the Market.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] reza_baher2001:
thanks!! it worked & it's great!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] milko9000:
Yeah that'll do - and I agree it's bloody annoying when people are asking for things to be hurried and for dates of stuff to be completed as if it's some sort of contract deadline to be met! But I just wonder what goodies are likely to be coming our way eventually is all :)

what about language

am asking is it support any other language ?

such arabic just in reading an email or internet browser
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] SikiN:
I use this rom for about three weeks and works great except that I have a problem with music player. When I listen to MP3 music with stock player or any other my hero is to slow sometimes FC:( When I listen to music other applications can not run.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
I use Music Mod, and it works great. Don't know if you've tried that one.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] descenpet:
i heard the headphone icon is sense thing. it's normal not seeing headphone icon. i don't have no sound on speaker problem though.

G-SENSOR

First of all, thanks for an awesome rom! By far the best i have ever used on my hero.

Second, does anyone know how to calibrate the g-sensor? I might just be blind, but i think i have looked through all the menus. My g-sensor is way off and i really want to fix it so i can play graviturn again!

Cheers! :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Neo Cortex:
The icon is there on Cronos Froyo, which is not running sense. Don't know whether this is something feeyo added.

Now it has happened for the third time... After ending a call, the phone crashed. It started vibrating for 20 seconds or so, and then rebooted. When it had finished booting, the sd card was damaged AGAIN! Sigh. Managed to make a nandroid backup in recovery mode, copy the files to the computer and then I formatted the card and restored the nandroid.

Why does this keep happening using this rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] squeeish:
Try erasmux's smartass kernel. I didn't have force closes anymore after I flashed it.

EDIT: I meant random reboots, not force closes. XD
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dieselpower89:
I also use flykernel 11, with the smartass governer. Phone no longer randomly reboots with min/max 274?/672. I suggest people give this combo a try as it has ironed out most issues i was having
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] captainstu72:
Maybe its your SDCard? Does not happen at all to me.

What card are you using? Have you ran it through HWtest? I hope you're not using a 32gb card you got for cheap off ebay....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] moonroy:
Using a high quality 8gb card that has been working fine with every other rom i have been using, including this one previously to 1.50. Have not noticed any problems before.

Flashed flykernel today, maybe it won't crash and mess up the card.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sidon100uk:
Can someone please advise, i have done a full wipe from VM12 to this ROM but it has not past the boot loader screen it just keeps looping i have left it up to an hour. am i supposed to update the kernal first please help as i am desperate to use GPS which is giving me jip on VM12.

Cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Turn off phone, boot to recovery. Wipe all as usual, reflash rom. Turn off. Remove sd card. Now boot. Should be fine.

Now back up the contents to your pc fully (including apps2sd) and do a clear out. Wipe it (reformat helps) and put essentials into it only. That should fix the issue.

Something in android posts junk to the sd, or perhaps an app, which causes trouble on boot.

Failing this, get a logcat and that should identity what's going on.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sassnowwolf:
If anyone can help me i'd really appreciate it. ever since 1.4, including this version of Froyo, every time i reboot the phone to do anything the theme seems to warp or change. For example if i flash a theme or use a newer themed version of this rom, then after reboot the top taskbar turns white, and the icons dissapear, and the notification bar completly changes and doesnt display anything. It's been happening for a while now but its getting that annoying i keep reverting to a 2.1 sense rom because of it.

A simple version being. When i reboot or turn off my phone, the theme ****s up!

thanks in advance!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] reza_baher2001:
well it didn't :(

just plays for abut 10ms then again silence....

:( even tried 2.2 version of this app... :(

i guess the only solution for this issue is to chew a gum and put it in 3.5mm hole!!!

:P

thanks any way!!!

any other suggestion is well appreciated!!!

Contact assigning issues

I just run into an issue with the assignment of phone numbers to contacts. I'm here in argentina and they have a pretty wired setup for cellphone numbers:

+54 911 1234 5678

11 1234 5678

15 1234 5678

are all numbers for one and the same sim card/person. In the Villain 12.0 release this worked flawless and all numbers got properly recognized. In FroyoVillain 1.5.0 it seems broken and android doesn't connect the caller id of +54 911 1234 5678 with the contacts entry of 15 1234 5678.

Any advices how to change this again? Is there somewhere a config i could change?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hniu:
After upgrading from VillainROM 12 to FroydVillain 1.5.0 (with full wipe) my phone number has changed. Everything works as it should, but I've noticed that there was no userpic in the SMS app, so I went to check settings->aboutPhone->status->myPhoneNumber and the number there is not mine.

Weird, I know.

Is it a known issue?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Did you port your number from an old SIM?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Unconn:
have you tried disabling al the settings under the DSP Manager? That sometimes give me problems, like playing for a few seconds after unplugging the headphones.

Unconnected
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hniu:
Yes. Last year, when I bought my Hero. From Orange to T-Mobile.

It could be the original SIM number, I don't remember, but why would the old number come back after flashing FroydVillain, and how do I change it?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] reza_baher2001:
yes i disabled everything there!!same again :(

hey hey!!!!

i played with dsp manager for serveral times!!!

just fixed everything!!

i'm happy!!!

be happy!!!

thanks unconn :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sidon100uk:
Thank you this work cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] descenpet:

edit:doesn't seems to stick on reboot.. lol sorry.. looks like the best way seems to be using another phone to rewrite the number to SIM.

Hi again.

Pulser, if you have a second to read this maybe you can help me.

Is there any possibility to have my hero listed in the Android AVD in Eclipse IDE, instead of using the emulator ? I know this worked before when I was using stock rom, sense and htc sync.

It makes development alot easier.

Thank you. :D

First impressions, not good aha :(!

There's a giant white bar down at the bottom of my screen :S can't get rid of it. And is there any way to get the HTC keyboard on the rom? I don't like the default android keyboard
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fongfc:
The images still got f*ck when rotated :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Good recommendation actually. I don't mind MusicMod which is what is installed just now, but I'm no audiophile on my phone. Phone = internet slate, 3G "dongle/modem", telephone and player of AngryBird.

MP3 player = music player :)

But for anyone who does use it for music, take a look at what's out there. I might get some of these apps reviewed soon.

No worries. Glad someone likes it, cos I don't :P

I concur. Time for angry birds. I'm on level 14 now :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Install HTC IME mod from xda to get the HTC keyboard. Or try SwiftKey if you're open to trying something pretty cool and different.

Try another gallery app. Someone recommended one the other day. Think it was on the vr site, but not sure.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bugeyes:
phew a wipe sorted it :D

These are my default settings and the problem remains that my HTC Hero bad awakening. In previous versions of FV I have never had this problem. For the rest everything works perfect.

Hopefully someone can give me suitable solution. Or is it better to wait for an OTA update?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
Long press in any text input field for the themed HTC IME mod keyboard.

*slaps pulser*

Unless you want the default grey one, in which case delete HTC_IME_themed.apk from /system/app then use the forum search tool to find htc ime mod keyboard download.

So set your minimum speed to 352.

122 was working fine before due to fixes I put in place in the HTC drivers, that allowed them to actually sleep properly. Unfortunately those fixes introduced other issues so I had to undo most of them. In all honesty the drivers need a complete rewrite.

Hopefully it'll all get resolved if/when we get ported to 2.6.34/35.

Which kernel are you using? Most hero's won't support over 691mhz, so if its clocked over that, it will just keep rebooting.

Btw FV1.5 is absolutely solid. Over a month and a half and not a single reboot or slowdown.

Seriously, where do you go to move the game on with FV2.0?!

and thus with the "SENS" Would it be possible for the GSM HERO?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
Alpha Sense rom port from Wildfire for the GSM is out as well, but it probably won't be worked much on. Waiting for the Legend Froyo release, I guess. It works though, but it's alpha. So gfx glitches, etc. and no camera/wifi.

You can use either Market (to download a file manager), ADB to push files or you can try Android Commander (http://androidcommander.com/)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
If you've used an overclocked kernel, have you tried a stock one? Or tried Erasmux's Flykernel?

If you're using the stock music apk, have you tried to use another one? I.e Music Mod (free on the Market). Don't remember if changing the music app was for reboots, battery or FC's, but it's worth a shot :)

do i set it to external or internal ??

why didn't harce choose to use sd-ext instead of system/sd :(

its working but just dun like the fact its is taking away more internal

My only issue with the ROM, is that I prefer to stay on 2G to save the battery, but every reboot, it reverts to 3G - is this a known bug? Other than that, I'm really impressed by how responsive it is. Even with no overclocking, it's more responsive than Villain 12 running at 691.

Yup, if you want to. You should repartition your sd to have an ext2 partition, not ext3. You can do that from recovery. Then flash this rom and if you want to oc, flash the kernel of your choice.
