[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
This seems like a great rom. Thanks for all your work! :)

Got two questions/issues though.

1. Using the Sense status bar, can I somehow change/invert the colors on the activities listed? Now it's black text on white bg, as seen on screenshot. Can it be made to be transparent, or white text on black bg?

2. ScummVM 1.2.0 official worked great on FroydVillain 1.5.0, but after switching to Floyo 1.1.9, all I get is a black screen when starting ScummVM. The bar counts to 100% and then it's all black. This seems to be a known Cyanogenmod issue. At least it was for about a year ago. One should think it'd be solved by now. FV 1.5.0 is also based on CM. Wonder why it worked there.

Any clues?

Thanks again for a great rom! :) Much appreciated! Trying it out now.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
About 1, the text color is easily changed from the cyanogen settings, the problem is the background which is an image file inside the framework-res.apk. If you are familiar with apk manager you can open this file replace the image and repack it....

About 2, I assume that this is because Froyd was built with a now rather old version of CM and that it somehow broke in newer versions. A bit hard to tell, I am not familiar with this problem. Let me know if you find anything further about this problem.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
Not very familiar with apk manager, so I guess I'll be happy with the way it is :) I'll get used to it :D

Regarding the ScummVM problem, that was my guess too. That FV was built on an old CM base. Guess I'll have to wait for an updated ScummVM version, unless there's another way around it. I'll let you know if I find out anything. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Actually, your post got me interested in ScummVM and I decide to give it a try and it works for me. Could it be because I couldn't find it on the market so I downloaded the scummvm-1.2.0-monolithic.apk from here? Can you give this version a try and see if it works for you?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
That's wierd (but good) news. I've tried both the monolithic version (pre) on that site, and the official one on the ScummVM page, but both give the same result.

Let me backtrack a bit.. I've installed the Sense status bar, changed fonts to Ubuntu and back to stock CM fonts, and ran the replacesystemlauncher. Other than that, I've restored some backups using Titanium, and I guess the ScummVM from FV 1.5.0 was amoungst them. I've been careful not to restore too much, and nothing system related.

I'll look for some remains of ScummVM and remove it, and try again.

Thanks so far!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
Tried both the one you posted, and the official release (non-pre) one from http://www.scummvm.org/downloads/ but same result on both. Black screen after it hits 100%.

Could it be a kernel issue? Or that I've changed the fonts or status bar?

I'm just guessing here.. Or is there a way to log what's (not) happening?

I don't know how to log stuff. Haven't had any trouble I couldn't fix or find a solution to before. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] floomat:
I've made 2 Packages for you like you want it.

The Sense-Status-Bar with Black or Semi-Transparent(65%)

but i cant change text color, you have to change text color by your own, somewhere in the CM-Settings. :) hope you'll find it.

The Files are attached. hope they work well :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Don't know. I use the FlyKernel-11c (preclocked to 614/176), although I doubt it if your replace it to the BFS version or to a different kernel try restoring the 11c non-BFS version.

I guess you can check the logcat but it's usually hard to understand things from there.

The best way to troubleshot it, is to do a clean installation of Floyo (do a backup first), and check the it works. Then start installing the things you suspect caused the problems and see what breaks it....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
Yup, was planning to do that if I can't find a solution by tomorrow. I'll do a nandroid, wipe everything, clean install and install ScummVM first thing, and then find out what (if anything) breaks it. :) Thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
Thanks! Tried the transparent one, and it works great! :)

Can't seem to change the font color though. Isn't it the Items notifications settings? Items title/text/time color.

Or do I have to reboot to see the changes? :) I'll give it a try.

Edit: Reboot did the trick. Wondering about changing back to black though. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
This should be helpful:

http://www.absolutelyandroid.com/ui-tweaks-on-cm6-a-tutorial/

I think at least some the items are updated now without a reboot but not sure which. If your changing the right ones, try a reboot and it should work :).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
It did. :)

Thanks for the link though! :)

Try ScummVM with a clean install tomorrow. Have a nice evening and thanks for the support!

Oh, and can I overclock the default kernel without flashing a new one? Flashing another one oveclocks from boot as well, doesn't it? Guess I'll read your kernel-thread as well :) Could learn a lot!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mdon874:
this is the best rom I've had yet... battery life is excellent
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ulyan:
You have to try the bsf kernels ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] windg3:
Very cool ROM,little problem

Hi， it's very cool and great ROM

Here are little problems:

1.After a long talk end, if the another side hang up firstly, my hero can't light the screen automatically, it's still black. But 2.1 Rom does very well.

2.Can't add message receiver list.

How to solve these?Hope your reply,thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] iceman-001:
Hi,

yesterday i changed from FroydVillain 1.5.0 to Floyo 1.1.9.

Batterylife is much better and the complete system feels faster.

In fact, Froyd has over 5000 MFLOPS and Floyo around 4600MFLOPS by Linpack tested with 748MHz.Both test with Flykernel. But this is only a benchmark, everything runs smoother now.

Thank You

Hans
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ng LC:
Does this rom have chinese input?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] desean:
nope but you can use this or this
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ptm:
Great rom, fast, stable and very reliable.

I have found that i get the following programs FC however

1) Sound Hound FC's when you try to identify a song.

2) Shazam does the same as above

3) SetCPU FC's when I try to move the slider to OC above the default

Does anyone else find these? Or are there any known fixes? What do you think is the best OC prog to use?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] artursc:
Chrome to phone does not work for me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lynt:
Just flashed from 1.01 to 1.1.9.

Wow, performance is great! Everything is verrrrry smooth.

Two things present in this ROM detract from it a little for me, and I understand that being a theme-based criticism this is open to opinion:

1) The highlights for buttons/ticks (purple) and selections/scroll bars (cyan) - the colours clash and aren't a good match at all. How can I restore them to the basic Android orange/green?

2) I've flashed the Sense status bar, which I prefer. I notice in this iteration, which wasn't there in previous ones, is that some black "masking" can be seen around the icons that sit on the status bar - it's like the icons are sitting in a darker rectangular box reception, wifi etc. icons).

The Sense bar wasn't like this in earlier releases - it looked consistent all the way across.

Apart from this, haven't noticed any issues! Can anyone tell me if I can use the Cyanogen settings to fix the tick/button highlight colours? I find it a big negative for this ROM, which is great in all other aspects. Theme-ing is such a personal thing, I always vote for vanilla ROM's with themes being options, rather than something pushed onto users.

My 2 cents.

Great work Erasmux.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bilalali:
Ditto.

android2cloud works though, so not sure what went wrong...:confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Schiehallion:
Erasmux this is great, 1.8 plus the fixes
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] desean:
works fine for me
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
Have you tried: "After installing the update, you need to go into the CyanogenMod Settings, under User Interface, Tweak Extras, and select a theme STOCK_Sense."

Need to do that after flashing the Sense "theme". It's working great here, but the Sense theme breaks ScummVM it seems though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
@Erasmux: ScummVM works great until I flash the Sense "theme" from your main post. It seems to be the culprit that breaks ScummVM.

If you do a nandroid, try for yourself to be sure. Is it something you can easily fix?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Regarding 1 flash the CM untouched theme. Notice you should use either the CM untouched theme or the sense theme, can't have both, sorry.

Vatvedt already answered 2.

Thats weird, I'll look into it when I have time. Thanks for for isolating the issue.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Calico5:
Hi erasmux!

Im switching over from FroydVillain... every1 is saying your ROM is the quickest :D

Done all my data backups and im ready to flash. But i want to do a clean install... what do i have to delete from the recovery menu?

# Wipe data/factory reset :: Wipe /data and /cache

# Wipe cache :: Wipe /cache only

# Wipe Dalvik-cache :: Wipe /cache/dalvik-cache

# Wipe SD:ext partition : Wipe the ext partition on your sdcard

if i do a wipe data or wipe sd... wouldnt that remove the floyo rom zip on my sd i want to flash afterwards? :o

Your help would be much appreciated... im eager to get this rom up and running! :D

Thanks

EDIT: i just jumped in both feet forward and wiped evertyhing... booting now lol....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bilalali:
Where did you install it from?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
Erasmux, I tested a bit further. ScummVM is not only broken by Sense, but also by CM Untouched theme. I flashed that one by a mistake thinking it was the Floyo Original theme, and the error was still present.

Then flashed the Floyo Original theme, ScummVM ran beautifully! Flashed Sense again to doublecheck, ScummVM was broken again. Reflashed Floyo Original theme, all was working.

There is something that breaks when you flash CM/Sense theme.

Haven't found anything else than ScummVM that is affected by it (there probably are though), but it sucks for me :) Since I really want to use ScummVM with Sense theme :D

I'm reverting back to Floyo Original theme for now, but hoping the Sense theme will be fixed in not too long :)

Thanks either way!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] desean:
from the market
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lynt:
Thanks guys for the help. Running the bare CM vanilla theme now. So the Sense status bar won't work on this like earlier Floyos? Cheers.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bilalali:
I'm unable to find it in the market :(

Doesnt show up...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] UltraBoykj:
Thanks

Works wonderfully.

Eight days ago, I didn't know the first thing about how to Root, replace roms, kernels or themes (except those in the Market). Now, four ROMs later, two Kernels later and a couple of "fancier" themes into my Hero I think I've finally settled.

Needless to say, my phone *flies* now compared to what it used to. Thanks all for your help.

Can't change input method no matter how I try... already check the input method under the keyboard system setting, long press on keys and the option box pops up, select "input method" but nothing happen... already tried with the latest HTC IME v27 lo rez and swiftkey.

Anyone has any idea?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] iknorr:
I use shazam on 1.1.9. Its working fine for me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
You don't need to install or do anything.

Do a full wipe, install the ROM, then long press a text box, select input method and select HTC_IME thats it.

If you have problems after a full wipe, please describe exactly what does happen (what does "nothing happen" mean?)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] stantang:
that's exactly what I did, but still not working after 3 wipes and flashes, so I uninstalled the stock one and try other input methods, still no luck. Saw someone had the same problem few pages back, wonder how they solve it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kakabobo:
go to msg.

create a new msg.

long press on the 'to' field.

select input method and select input method - HTC_IME mod.

if u long press on the ?123 and select input method it would not work.

hope it solve yr problem.

regards
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
It does work, and it looks good. It just seems to break ScummVM. If you're not using ScummVM, you should have no problem. I'd use it myself, but I'm using ScummVM every now and then.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
I really don't understand this problem. Nevertheless, playing a bit with the Sense bar theme I got it to work. Redownload it, the file name will now have an "_" at the end and it should now work.

The trick I did to fix it will not work on the CM untouched theme. Note that if your download a new CM nightly and install google apps + the app2sd (from the obsolete updates on the first post) it should be very very close to floyo (and have the CM theme of course). My latest updates/fixes have been integrated into the CM code on 05-11-2010.

The Sense bar update is NOT intended to be flashed over the CM untouched theme. How well it works and looks I have no idea and will give no support for this.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
Thanks! Seems to work great now! Awesome! :D

It's 2MB smaller than the first release of Sense Status bar though. How did you do that? :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] stantang:
It WORKS!!! Thank you so much! That's a very strange bug(?)

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] 4thfloorcaveman:
Lovely! rom.

I was a bit afraid to leave Froyd, but wow.

it even let me run an app I'd given up upon (blamed the app though?).

A teeny tiny issue - which is probably in CM6.1 stock, but damnit if I can find their bug/issue tracker: The "longpress to kill foreground application" feature, is awesome, but far far to sensible.

Almost every press of the button kills.

but cheers.

and thanks for the rom

I can link my contacts to facebook... so when i scroll through my contact list i can their their profile pictures. However with the people widget... the contact pictures wont populate :( even after many syncs and refreshes!

Also seems to be a problem with the messaging widget....contact pics will show in the message threads...but not the external widget!

Dont know if this is due to the update from LP 0.8.1 to 0.8.1.1, or from me switchg from froydvillain to floyo :o

It is quite annoying tho...

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
I too went from Froyd 1.5, and I'm really happy with this one. Feels snappier, but that might just be because of a wipe and flash.

Anyhow, I don't regret moving on to this one even though I didn't have much problems with Froyd. The biggeste problem with Froyd for me, was the lag after using it for a few days. Haven't run this one long enough to tell you if this one is better regarding that problem.

Either way, no regrets. I'm really happy with Floyo! :)

hi

A couple of issues.

I am in Israel and GPS is not working for me. I have flashed to the European setting and to the Asian settings. It was working under VillianRom.

I have no option for wifi tether. Only usb tether. I had to install Wireless Tether from the market for wifi tether (way better than aNetShare). I thought Froyo came with wifi tether built in?

When are we upgrading to Android 2.3? It is coming out in a few days!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shimon-xda:
Oh, one more thing.

SipDroid is appearing as white on white in the notifications bar. Is this a Floyo bug or SipDroid bug?

I am also having other problems with SipDroid... so I wont be surprised if it is SipDroid.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
I think the built-in portable hotspot option is Sense only. Correct me if I'm wrong :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Judim:
This is indeed a good new! Thanks for porting your fixes and improvements directly into CM!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
I guess, you could download the CM6 RC1 official release for hero (from the CM site), verify that all the errors are there as well (as they really must be because I use the same sources), and assuming they are, report them on the CM bug tracker. It's a bit of a pain, and worst, there is no gaurantee anything will be done about it....

Please do not try to report bugs with Floyo on the CM bug tracker as they will not support Floyo. You can only report there problem with official CM releases.

Finally, the best method: if you know how to fix this in the appropriate XML files, and can fix it yourself, you can upload to it back to the CM review system so all CM users can enjoy your fixes. If you need help with the technical sides of such a process, contact me by PM.

Google account should be there. Something went wrong with your installation, do a full wipe and reinstall only the ROM update.

Do a full wipe (with a backup before if you want), install only the Floyo 1.1.9 update, reboot, do not install anything, try to launch the CM settings. If you still get a FC, please send me a logcat of this FC (after you did a full wipe).

I would guess it is something you install on your ROM.

How to fix this (FYI, I did full wipe before installation of Floyo 1.1.9).[/QUOTE]

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
About the GPS, first of all what do you mean "GPS is not working"?!

I suggest: flash the latest radio, for example from here. You can reinstall the Europe GPS "config", it works great for me (also in Israel).

Try to get a lock with the "GPS Status & toolbox" app from the market (free). If necessary, go to a place with clear skies and wait, if necessary, even for 20 minutes for the initial GPS lock. Assuming you do get an initial GPS (it really should take a few minutes at most), check how much time it takes to a acquire locks now (should be within second and less than a minute).
