Actually, for now I think my work with Floyo is pretty much done. All changes I think are important have been merged into the CM 6.1 sources so Floyo 1.2 and CM 6.1 final release will be very very close.

Additionally, I am spending way too much of my time on "supporting" this ROM. There are better ways I can aid the hero community with my free time.

Floyo 1.2 will be the last version of Floyo, at least for the foreseen future.

As far as I know its a CM feature.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Kirsebaer:
Hi, I have a quick question.

1) I never had a radio when I got 1.6 and the OTA 2.1 update didn't give me a radio either. Is it possible for me to flash a radio into the Floyo 1.1.9 version?

2) When you flash a radio, do you have to wipe everything, flash the radio and then the rom? Or can you just install the rom (like I just did today) and then install the radio later on.

Thank you :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sjaanjean:
1) Yes

2) No, wipe is not necessary. Yes, you can flash the radio later on.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Kirsebaer:
Thank you sjaanjean. Hm..I have updated the radio now, but there is no radio to be found in the programs. Could it be that the version I used didn't work with Floyo? So much trouble to hear a bit of radio :(

I used the last one from here:

villainrom.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?307-Gsm-Hero-Radio-Roms-Download-Links

Thanks again :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sjknight413:
ha! bit of a misunderstanding there,

when you flash a radio it is not a program with which you can listen to the radio, it is a rom that controls things like gps and network connection, effectively it is a firmware file for the devices in your phone that transmit a signal.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] cjescudero:
I have install floyo 1.1.9 with all the wipes, the last radio and the flykernel-11c Smartass with 528/176.

Everything works fine, but the contacts automatic synchronization with my Parrot bluetooth handsfree (model 9100i). Since it was imposible to autosync with the Parrot, I've decided to export the contacts and this works fine.

Is there any option in the configuration to allow automatic sync of the contacts through bluetooth?

By the way, "Erasmux" congratulations for your work with this excellent ROM.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Kirsebaer:
Hm..I see :( thought it was a hurried 1.6 rom without radio they shipped, because even my old SE from 2004 had radio.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] B4Me:
Circle Battery mod ?

Hey

Can the the circle battery mod ( http://circle.glx.nl/ )

be add'ed in this core, I cant seem to find anything about the mod on Hero... only Desire.

But maybe I'm wrong ?

Btw. I love this Rom :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
The Hero doesn't have an AM/FM radio. You could use an internet radio. That would use your data-plan or wifi, though :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bobbytomorow:
I have one hurdle as I am new to flashing roms, how exactly do I change/flash the gps config? I am in North America. This is only my second ROM flash so if someone can explain it in noob that would be excellent :D

Love this rom btw
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] treesurf:
Here's an easy way to set the gps config:

After a few days of troubleshooting, I found the problem why my phone is having problem using this ROM. My phone would freeze within 1 or 2 min of using this ROM.

I tried everything from Wiping everything in recovery removing the SD card reformatting a blank SD card. and Finally start looking at the Log Cat.

My phone will not run at 352Mhz using Fly Kernel, every time the phone switches to that speed the whole phone will freeze.

I could run at 176, 246, 480, 528 576, 614, 634 with no problem

653 is not 100% stable will have lockup when the phone is hot or under some heavy usage. But somehow everytime when it switches to 352 the phone will Freeze.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bobbytomorow:
rad man, thanks!

I have sorted the issue now.I did a clean wipe ,then re flashed

Thanks all
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nechmadi:
hi, i've got a problem:

skyfire browser fc's. i thought that it's a problem in skyfire himself so uninstalled it and tried to use the defualt browser, it fc's too .

i flashed the rom after full wipe.

any solution?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ulyan:
Does it takes some time to load after wipe ? I am stucked at the hero screen ... :confused:

PD: I did not manage to install it ... strange.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Kirsebaer:
I have a few more questions :)

1) How do you delete applications that were part of the ROM, like chrome to phone and dev tools? It says uninstall failed or something when I try.

2) How on earth do you add the facebook photo of yourself to the "me" profile. Like when you text someone, then I just have a droid avatar :)

3) Two small things here. The default Android keyboard it comes with is sooo smooth, but when I switched language it didn't seem to work so I had to pick the HTC_IME mod where it accepted the language change. Has anyone else noticed this? Also..how do you select telephone keyboard instead of qwerty with the Android keyboard?

4) Is there a way to change the lock screen wallpaper?

TY :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ulyan:
Guys I can't install this rom, I get stucked at the boot screen (HERO screen). However no problem installing CyanogenMod.

Any clues or personal experiences ? :(

Tank you.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Logcat ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] badboyvtec:
Hi Guys,

Love this rom and been using it for about a week now (best rom i have used so far by a long way). It has been connecting to my Parrot CK3000 EVOLUTION fine upto now. Now everytime I turn on my car the kit says "Please pair device" although it is already paired.

I remember originally having trouble connecting to it but finding somewhere online that holding the green and red button on the parrot to reset it TWICE should get androids going with it, and this did work orignally. Having done this a few times now I am a bit stuck. Sometimes it beeps as if it has connected but shortly after dissconnects (you cant call through it.)

Any ideas? Please.....

EDIT: Forgot to mention that my Blackberry pairs and connects fine with it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] abucan:
Chrome to phone is not installed in this ROM.

hi erasmux

thx for the great work, this rom have totally changed my mind on the current 2.2 rom.

It's really fast and stable.

Here I got two little problems, and I found no one mention it. So need your help.

1: when I try to change 'screen unlock' to enable 'Pattern', program shows FCs every time after I click 'next'.

2: After I flash the Ubuntu Fonts, btw really like the it, some of my application titles can not show their entire name. like "advanced task manager" , it shows ’advance ask man..口口‘.

So any suggestions? thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] PAGOT:
Well his fonts update doesnt work for me too also the squares. I used the one from elelinux and no problems :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
It the exact same fonts, open the updates and compare.... Only different is that my update only installs the ubuntu fonts, and his resets all font files to the CM default. If you install my CM fonts update (to restore the stock fonts which come with a clean installation of this ROM) and then my ubuntu fonts update, it is the same.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] PAGOT:
Is you sure? Cuz your file is significantly smaller as his. Like 5x smaller(And is missing many files inside.). And I did a clean wipe and installed the fonts and had squares.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] merckey:
Hi,

Wow, can you upload this fonts? I want to try it now :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] merckey:
thanks for the reply, I will try this first:D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Open the update zip files (with any program which can open zips) and compare. His new version has a DroidSansArabic.ttf file which is different from the CM version, don't know where he got it from. Other than that, everything is exactly the same.

Everything is on the first post.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] PAGOT:
Well I dont know either. Fact is I got squares with a clean install.

Compare of the versions I have here.

Are you really sure you aren't missing anything? :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] merckey:
Everything is on the first post.[/QUOTE]

thx!

Any ideas about the FC I've got?

settings->Location& Security-> set up screen lock-> Pattern-> next then FC :confused:

'process com.android.settings' stop unexpectedly
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Read my post from above: I said the only difference is that he resets all the fonts! The rest of the files (except the arabic one - again as stated by me above) are the same the come with the Floyo 1.1.9 original ROM and/or the package to reset the CM fonts.....

thx!

Any ideas about the FC I've got?

settings->Location& Security-> set up screen lock-> Pattern-> next then FC :confused:

'process com.android.settings' stop unexpectedly[/QUOTE]

No FC here, a clean install (full wipe), if done properly, will solve your issue....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] PAGOT:
Ok :). Not sure you believe me or no. If I remember correctly those squares I had on longer names on apps. Or longer inputs in some widgets. So maybe its something specifically I have where the fonts are missing. I didnt even report this since I thought its only me and wouldnt even react if he didnt have the same problem (and the package from ele helped).

However one thing to this "ROM" uf.... MAN IT ROCKS!!! 80 hours standby and guessing since I had the battery out 3 hours of use (1-2 hours display on) and still 20 percent left. Seriously good job and thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Its not a matter of belief, its the exact same files.... If you really think that there is a difference, flash my "Original CM Fonts" update (to restore the fonts that come with this ROM), then flash my "Ubuntu" fonts update and check if the problem occurs. There should be no problem. If somehow there is try to flash elelinux update on top of this. If this fixes the problem, its this Arabic font file which I highly doubt has any effect (unless your using Arabic of course).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] PAGOT:
Sorry took a little longer.

Screenies. (After CM6 fonts reset + your update Fonts zip)

First screenie is on the date of the android agenda widget. look down.

Other are apps.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
No need for screen shots, just reading my posts, please, pretty please, pretty please with....

The next of part of my last post, was flashing elelinux ubuntu fonts on this to check if it solves the problem. If it does this Arabic font file somehow fixes this problem....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] PAGOT:
Eran try to read my posts? I even wrote you 2x I did the update of his fonts onto yours (well not particulary onto yours sorry for my phrasing, but I did it always like that, I never wrote that I did before the CM6 fonts reset)... and I know that will fix the problem...

So to recapitulate :)

1. clean wipe install

2. ubuntu floyo

I get squares

3. ubuntu ele

fixed

1. cm6 reset fonts

2. ubuntu floyo

I get squares

3.ubuntu ele

fixed
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
I give up. nevermind.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] PAGOT:
Hehe dont :) . There has to be something missing in your update package besides the arabica. Maybe the other files are there for a reason? Maybe you could ask ele if he didnt encounter something like this. I saw other update packages for fonts and all had the other files there too. But as stated before I didnt report it since I found a fix as soon as I saw the squares.

Anyway again thanks :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Could you please, just flash the elelinux ubuntu fonts on top of the ROM with my ubuntu fonts (the one you posted screen shots of above), and doing only this change, does this fix the problem?

If you are willing, to check this for me, I would like to know the result. If not, lets just drop the subject.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] PAGOT:
Did, fixed :) (and as I wrote you before I did this always like this, but I guess there was a mix up or misunderstanding there , sorry my english aint so good)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Ok, I managed to recreate the "problem" on my device as well and indeed its this Arabic font file..... I will repacked my ubuntu fonts when I get home tonight (will not be able to upload it until then). Thanks for the persistence.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] PAGOT:
No problem, thanks for not loosing patience with me :) . Wasnt a big problem after all.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mte:
Wrong first day of week

Hi,

using Slovenian locale the first day of week should be Monday, not Sunday as it is now.

Is this something you (or even we, users with adb shell?) can fix? Should I file a bug report to CyanogenMod? Or Google itself?

Thanks for info,

matej
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lohtse:
mmmmmmm an odd one for you...Only just found it.if you have saymyname enabled so when someone calls it announces them the slide to unlock screen is nolonger enabled after a call!!!! had a call from a colleague and after call turn phone off(press power button short press not fullshut down) and when came back to phone the lock screen was nolonger present just went straight to desktop.

Disabled saymyname and after a call locked screen still works...

any ideas???
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
If you want to report it on the CM bug report system, you'll need to install their official release (the 6.1 RC1) and verify it occurs there as well. They will not take reports on CM-based ROMs like Floyo.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] desean:
Just to check, does Floyo supports wifi ap that do not broadcast SSID?

I noticed I couldn't connect to my home wifi until I enable the SSID broadcast on my router. However, I seems to recall being able to use my home wifi (i.e. SSID is not broadcasted) during the first few hours of installing Floyo. Also, FroydVillain works fine with un-broadcast SSID afaik.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] artursc:
Hey should i install Autokiller on this rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] PAGOT:
no

fineprint just cuz it says NO is too short.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] socratesig:
Yes, Floyo support hidden WIFI networks. Just add you network manually, in wifi settings.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Pikkuhannu:
Flashed 1.1.9 yesterday at last.

Can´t see difference compared 1.1.8, so all works like it should.:D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] badboyvtec:
Although no-one replied about my Parrot CK3000 Evolution handsfree not connecting I have solved it now. In case anyone else with a Parrot CK3000 Evolution trys to connect you need to pair after using green and red to reset the Parrot TWICE. After this delete the pairing from the phone and turn off the power to the Parrot and then turn it back on. The parrot should now request the pairing with the phone. Hope this helps others stuck.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Kanzar:
I can't get this to work. :/ It still displays as not in range.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] AzMean:
Hi,

I have just installed this ROM along with its updates and I have to say this is the most stable ROM yet.

I have tried Elelinux (drains batt like no tomorrow), MCR Eclair (hangs frequently) and FV (can't even flash).

Batt looks Good so far.. can last the whole day under normal use. No major FCs. Speedy ROM. Loving it.

Sent from HTC Hero loaded with Floyo 1.1.9 ROM.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] AzMean:
Try disabling Bluetooth and try again. I dunno.. but i cant find my network if i switch on Bluetooth.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Kanzar:
I never have BT on.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shonen45:
I couldn't see my SSID when it is on channel 12. I have had to press the phone "menu" for the "Advanced settings" to allow viewing on more channels (within Wifi settings screen on the phone). So, you may want to check your Wifi settings on your router.

If your Wifi channel is 11 and below, then I am not sure what prevents you from seeing it.

Another thing to check is the transmission rate (fequency?) of 2.4GHz or 5GHz. I am not sure if HTC Hero works with 5GHz if that is what your router is on.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Menelaoxda:
Hi Erasmux, I install your rom last Friday and... wow it's very stable, smooth and fast, I like it very much!

Just an information, it's possible to hide the battery indicator?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Kanzar:
Yeah... it's on channel 11, and still not in range whether I change to 13 or 14.

It's the 2.4GHz band on our dual band router, and other 2.4GHz devices connect to that SSID perfectly fine.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] yellowt:
You can set the battery indicator in CM settings
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] amresh:
I found solution to this problem. I am not sure how it happened but Titanium Backup application froze CMSettings application and hence launching CMSettings was causing Settings to FC.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sik_gerar:
i am new to this rom, and i cant find a2sd anywhere. i have the partition done but it wont use it. have to do something by hand? i've tried darktremor's a2sd but it will bootloop forever..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] yellowt:
Stupid question but i can't solve it. I set the stock phone app on the "green" key but I want dialer one there. How can I undo the "set as default" operation?

In the app manager phone app has a grey button on the erase defaults...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mdon874:
this is a new world record for me and my Hero...

longest time i've kept the same ROM, it's been running perfectly since install with 176-614 flykernel11c -BFS.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
App2sd is included in the ROM as is, and if you have an ext2 (or ext3) partition it will use it automatically. Do a clean installation (without installing darktremor a2sd) and check again, it should work.

Clear defaults on "Contacts" through app manager.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Menelaoxda:
No, in the CM settings it's possible to visualize the percentage.

I need to completely hide the icon

another question:

I've installed the "176-614 flykernel11c -BFS".

I need a specific program to enable that frequency or it's enough any program that can manage it?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Dark Emotion:
Awesome ROM but is there any way to disable unlocking vibration? tnx
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
The preclocked kernels (i.e. 176-614 flykernel11c -BFS) will default at the boot of the kernel to 614/176 but have all frequencies open. Assuming you didn't install any CPU overclocking app (or boot OC or anything like this) it should stay at this speed.

You can check it using SetCPU (but don't enable "Set at boot") or by reading the following files (for example using adb):

adb shell cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq
adb shell cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
adb shell cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

Regarding the battery icon, I don't think you can. If you know how to change the resources in the framework-res.apk, I guess you could replace all battery icons with small transparent images. Not sure if this will leave a empty space where the battery is or not.

Not that I know of.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] milko9000:
If you set the Cyanogenmod setting for allowing a double-press of Menu to unlock, that doesn't vibrate it. The vibration still happens in the touchscreen swipe though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] UltraBoykj:
Running Floyo 1.1.9 with default Flykernel-BFS with one of the newer themes. Loving it, but my battery usage is crazy. Anyone else having problems? I am going to go through this forum to check if others are seeing this. Thanks for any help.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mdon874:
I get about 13-14 hours out of mine ... I would call my usage 'moderate'.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Roz3buD:
autokiller

Hi everyone

just for information, I had autokiller installed, as I was thinking it will improve my battery life, which is WRONG. I uninstalled it two days ago, and haven't charged it since :)

thx erasmux! great work

next step: sense!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] alltheway3:
Loving Floyo, the phone is so much quicker and the battery life is much better without Sense.

Just a couple of questions/issues, apologies if these have been asked before!

Has the stock dialer with this ROM got a T9 contact search? The keypad has letters but doesn't seem to make contacts appear. I'm having to use Dialer One instead at the moment.

Has this ROM got hotspot (share wifi) software built in? I thought it was part of 2.2 standard?

When using the pattern lock screen and playing music, I don't get music lock controls. Yet if I use the PIN lock screen, I get the music lock controls. Is this a ROM isssue or a Froyo issue?

Cheers in advanced and keep up the hard work :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vatvedt:
No, it doesn't have T9 contact search. Try Dialer One. It's free in the Market.

No, built-in portable wifi hotspot seems to be a Sense feature only. Try Wireless Tether for Root Users. Also free in the Market.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rustybones:
Great rom and I really want to use this as my default but I've been having some problems.

First was the battery drain issue. The battery would last all of 8-9 hours with minimal usage. Minimal as in check email on wifi twice, that's it. Went through the battery calibration dance, which seemed to work.

But now when I go to bring the phone out of sleep, it will either reboot or not wake.

I was running Floyo 0.8 before I upgraded to this with zero problems... so I'm really at a loss to what it is, probably the kernel, but I know SFA about that. Any ideas?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Do a clean install of Floyo 1.1.9, flash and install nothing except the Floyo-1.1.9.zip. Verify that you have no problems with this.

Now you can start installing your regular config, and find out what causes the problems (if they will reappear at all).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hbls00190:
Hi, just wanted to say that I've crossed over from FroydVillain to Floyo and it's a fantastic rom! Installed 24 hours ago, several reboots for flashing stuff, some surfing, some texts and still got 63% battery left.

Once again, great Rom!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] B4Me:
What is this battery calibration ? haven't heard about it before
