Honestly, if Baked Snack is lagging, you might have a different issue. Lag issues are a lot of time related to your kernel. Try flashing Netarchy's latest (not the beta but the stable one...I forget the numbers) and see how that goes. I've tried almost all of the ROMs but haven't found anything as good as BS.
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
it started out awesome, everything was slick and zippy. now, about three weeks in, it takes nearly 45 seconds to get handcent to open. then when it does open, i have to wait 15-20 seconds for the keyboard to appear. then it takes a bit for the keyboard to get situated cause as soon as i try swipping, the tracer is all over the place :-/

could it be that the kernel didn't flash properly? maybe if i reflash, it'll fix my speed issues?
[EVO 4G General] novanosis85:
This is after you reboot the phone every day?
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
yessir. i had to, just to get a little relief.
[EVO 4G General] hooover:
Have you tried a simple wipe of your cache or davlick? You will not lose valued info and it will speed up your system.
[EVO 4G General] Sporkman:
Laggy yea ok, not sure what your doing but its not on the rom's end . I ran 1.7 for while and it was rock stable no lag no stuttering etc etc

As other roms go try them all see what one fits the needs you have

from the fade
[EVO 4G General] driguez:
+1 wipe cache and dalvik and switch to a dif kernel either kings or nets would dobjust fine.
[EVO 4G General] fachadick:
Sounds like a kernel issue to me also. I was running one of his tweaked "best battery" kernels, and started noticing some lag after a while, so I switched to what was the default kernel in 1.5 and the lag disappeared. Also, if you've been running the same bs for a few weeks, then you probably haven't updated recently (like me). Maybe you'll have a better experience with 1.7.

[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
no i'm up-to-date. i'm running the latest 1.7. :(
[EVO 4G General] rugedraw:
See my sig with all my rom info and scores. Fresh is working lovely for me, and everything works. While some of the processor scores may be lower than what the Evo is capable of, I don't think those scores are bad when you consider I'm running Sense and I have a bunch of apps on my phone that are always hogging up resources (i.e. Facebook and Facebook for Sense, Lookout, eBay, Google Maps, HTC's mail, friendstream, Scoremobile widget, weather channel app, Swype, and a live wallpaper). These scores were achieved with Fresh's 3.1.0.2 rom, and I flashed the 3.2.0.0 which is based on the OTA that has not been released yet, but I lost many features with the new kernel from HTC that saves battery life, so I flashed king's kernel over it until the devs get a chance to play with the new kernel. All my root goodies are fully functional on Fresh 3.2.0.0 with Kings kernel.
[EVO 4G General] driguez:
Switch to a dif kernel? I had a similar issue w one of kings kernels builginh a crazy amount of dalvik thus slowing down my phone, switched to a dif one and problem solved.
[EVO 4G General] fachadick:
whoops, my bad - see that in the third post. I got thrown off when I saw the comment about it being zippy at first but now you're having trouble 3 weeks in...

Try the wiping and maybe another kernel - say what you will about BS, but Hero does you give you kernel options!
[EVO 4G General] akastixx:
i agree with the wiping before and choosing the proper kernel, also what resource intensive apps are you running? maybe you should post a list of installed programs, atrackdog allows you to export.

lastly, you can't shop without your wallet. :D *runs off*
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
I'm having no problems with BakedSnack 1.7 and kernel #5. It is the best Sense ROM, in my opinion.

--
[EVO 4G General] Pao23:
I tried BS 1.7 on a fresh install today and I was not a personal fan. It would bog down and the camera could not focus for squat. Meh.

I really like evio because it does not resize pictures sent using the standard messaging client, a big bonus imo. Paired with BFS#6 and even though I keep trying other roms, I alwasy nand back to my evio.
[EVO 4G General] easy9:
How do you manage to get 50 FPS on your evo. i am also running the new fresh rom and i am only getting 30 fps. please advise
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
hey guys, i just had a thought. when i first installed baked snack i wiped with Clockwork recovery. now i'm reading reports that it may not be clearing the cache's like it's supposed to. could this be a cause??
[EVO 4G General] rugedraw:
It's all about the kernel. Which kernel are you using? I'm using King's #6 (I had stability issues with #8, so I went back to #6) on the Fresh rom. I just ran the test right now, and this is what I got:
[EVO 4G General] rugedraw:
I've heard the same thing, and I must say that I do think clockwork wipes the dalvik cache a little too quickly when compared to the time it takes for Amon's recovery to do it. Try it.....you can flash Amon's recovery from clockwork and then flash clockwork back on using the app. For flashing without wipes, I go with clockwork because it seems to find flashable files on the SD card better than Amon does, but for wiping, I always use Amon.
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
I just tried that exactly. i installed through rom manager, it completed, then i rebooted into recovery, selected recovery and it took my back into my boot options(fastboot, usb boot, restart etc.) i can't seem to get into recovery :(
[EVO 4G General] rugedraw:
So you're saying that when you boot into recovery through clockwork, whether you have clockwork recovery or Amon's flashed onto your phone, you cannot actually boot into the custom recovery? Did you try powering on while holding volume down? Even if it takes you to the HTC boot page, if you highlight recovery and press the power button, it should take you to whichever recovery you have flashed onto your phone.
[EVO 4G General] Sporkman:
could be the trouble i use the other myself and have no troubles
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
Okay, here's the steps i took. while in the full OS i opened rom manager. it told me i had clockwork installed. at the bottom it has an option for flashing an alternate recovery, amon ra, so i selected that. it worked a while and showed a progress bar. at the end it gave me a success message saying everything was good to go and the info at the top displayed amon ra as the recovery. i then it reboot into recovery, which took me to the HTC boot menu with the options BOOTLOADER, REBOOT, REBOOT BOOTLOADER and POWER DOWN. i selected BOOTLOADER. it took me to the standard HTC boot screen with FASTBOOT, RECOVERY, CLEAR STORAGE, SIMLOCK and HBOOT USB. i chose recovery. it took me back to the first set of options. am i missing something??
[EVO 4G General] rugedraw:
Hmmmm.....it sounds like the recovery wasn't properly flashed onto your phone. You may want to try and push the recovery using ADB. In my case, it is the complete opposite of what you're going through. If I try to push Amon using ADB, it tells me I have bad blocks and it fails to write. However, if I flash it through the clockwork app, it allows me to go from one recovery to the other with no problems. As far as my knowledge goes, you are doing everything right.

Edit: If you flash the clockwork recovery using the clockwork app, does it let you boot into clockwork recovery? Is the problem of not booting into a custom recovery when you flash Amon, or you can't get into any custom recovery at all?
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
Damn. well, maybe i'll flash back to clockwork and try to install amon through recovery itself instead of rom manager. maybe whatever image was bundled with the manager is bad. worth a shot i suppose:rolleyes:
[EVO 4G General] rugedraw:
Good luck, man. I really don't know what else to tell you. I'm not an expert by any means.
[EVO 4G General] fachadick:
Were you letting Rom manager reboot you into recovery, or did you power off, and manually try to get into recovery with the volume down?

Sent from my blah blah blah blah
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
well i finally gave up with amon. i could not seem to get it to work. instead i wiped cache with clockwork and installed netarchy's latest and greatest. things seem to be zipping right along. i'm pleased!

question though.(and this is going to sound moronic) Can kernels get clogged up with extended usage? do i need to plan on installing a fresh kernel every month or two??

Hi guys I am a little confused with all the different ROMS going around - which is the 'best' bear in mind this will be used for my HTC Hero (or G2 Touch as it is called on T-Mobile) and i'd like to use GPS & WiFi quite frequently.

Thanks

Moved to Q&A as not development.

This question has been asked countless times, and the answer is that it's up to you to decide. Threads such as this left open unfortunately gather flames and arguments.

Have a look at the releases of Froyo (2.2) ROMs in the dev forum (all are for hero), read the features, and try a couple. Keep an eye out for updates and what features you are after.

Thread shut to prevent flames and due to being asked before several times.

Hi all,

posted this on modaco already but putting it here probably means bigger audience and mayby an answer ;-)

Hi,

i just noticed that whatever file is created on my Desire (Photo, Text-file, ...) the filesystem-timestamp that is shown ON THE PC is always GMT ?

On the phone itself it it shown right (using any file-manager like Astro or RootExplorer), but once mounted on the PC the timestamp is GMT ? (so -2 compared to my timezone)

Example:

- just created a file in /sdcard/tmp "test.txt"

- Astro shows correct timestamp (11:40)

- mounting sd-card on PC

- Win-Explorer (and any other File-Manager) shows 9:40 as filesystem-timestamp

(- back on the phone it is still ok)

Can someone confirm or even explain ?

Is this "by design" or a bug ?

Marcus

UPDATE: even terminal on the phone and using "ls -la" shows the correct timestamp - so it seems that once sd-card gets mounted on pc (using the phone) the timestamp is somwhow "shifted" so that GMT-time is shown to the PC.
[Desire General] Jabbafat23:
Check what timezone your pc is in first.
[Desire General] marcuso:
PCs timezone is the same as on the phone (in my case GMT+2). So that is not the reason.

When i use some wifi-disk-app and accedd the phones SD via FTP for exmaple the timestamp is shown correctly in the FTP-Client on the PC...

just using usb-access shows this weird time-shift !?

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Big-O-Devil:
he can some one tell me how to port any theme to our hero.....
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ASimmons:
1. examine the theme to see where the differences are.

2. remove the res folder from all the apk and the framework-res.apk

3. remove everything from the res folder except the pngs

4. alter pngs to your liking.

5. copy over the res folder of your rom that you want to theme with your altered res folder.

6. package into an update zip

7. flash and test

A good way to see a road map is to take a known working theme and use that as an example. I dont use metamoph and this assumes the theme does not have any custom programming applied to it.

You'll also benefit from the apk builder that is floating around here some where as it has all the tools needed.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Big-O-Devil:

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanethal:
I'm sure you guys have notice that the front camera is installed 90 degrees perpendicular to the screen orientation, causing ridiculous distortion in qik. Any one know of a way to either rotate the aspect so that it fills the screen without stretching, or of the camera maybe has a square sensor that could just be cropped in the proper alignment?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaokollaa:
the problem is not the camera !! is qik

i download this app''mirror for sprint phones'' free in the market and it looks nice

i think qik is not compatible with the epic front camera
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanethal:
Its totally the camera. It renders (in landscape) a 480x640 image, which qik stretches to 640x480. Take a pic and resize it in photoshop, it looks exactly like it does in qik. That's why fring doesn't look horrible: it doesn't fit the image to the screen, and why qil looks good on the evo: the image is already 640x480 (well, bigger, but same aspect) and doesn't need to be stretched.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arashed31:
Look an app called MagicMirror. I personally worked with the dev on this to fix the Epic 4G front camera.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjben:
I see this thread is rather old, but I'm going to throw my 2 cents in anyway.

I tried the mirror programs listed here. Both of them produce an upright portrait image. Great. But what does that do to help video chat? Nothing that I can tell.

The front camera turns out a rotated image with Yahoo chat as well. (on a side note, Skype app doesn't even suppport video chat).

So I have to ask, what is the use of the epics Front camera? It doesn't appear to be supported by any useful applications. Furthermore- it seems to have been this way for 5 months now, and STILL no support?

Passaic 4g question.....

I've always kept the 4g radio off because I wasn't expecting the service to be available in Jersey but out of curiosity the other day I put her on and BEWM!:):)

One question though, it connects to 4g for only about 10 secs and then disconnects. Is this the normal functionality of the 4g connection or does this only happen in test areas where 4g isn't official? I've read threads in the development section that go into changing the timeout of the reconnect and would have no problem doing so, just wondering if there's something wrong with my rooted phone or if this is normal.

my evo won't stay connected for more than 10 seconds if the phone is idle...

ie: the phone connects to 4g....I don't do anything.....it will automatically disconnect...and then reconnect automatically...then the whole process just keeps looping.

Even in Samsung app Friends Now is happening the same. Or if you had a shortcut of a contact to UI.

Same here, images get stretched to fit the box. Annoying indeed. One fix would be creating a local contact and linking it to the facebook contact, then download a picture from the facebook site and add it to the local contact. That way the local picture will show up. I wish the phone did this automatically though.

Also, how come there's no "set as contact picture" option in the browser or in Facebook S? Cmon, it's a must feature!
