Ok, I have an issue.

When I was using 2.3, I noticed I was getting quite bad battery drain. So, I used BatteryHistory (or spare parts) to find out what was going on. I discovered that Calendar was keeping the phone in a Partial Wake Lock for a long time (hours per day). So, I searched for this issue and found that even in some oficial roms this is a problem. There are various theories about this, one of which being that Flicr Sync/Account causes the Calendar to keep the phone awake. However, no matter what I tried (removing clickr account, disabling calendar sync etc) I couldn't solve the issue.

I believed this to be an issue with my setup. So, in desperation, I restored my VillainRom12 installation, which has all the same apps, the same setup etc. Lo and behold, the issue goes away. Calendar is now using seconds every few hours instead of hours!

So, thinking it was still an issue with my setup, I waited for 2.4. Today I installed the new rom and set it up the same as VR12. Same apps, widgets and settings. Yet, the issue remains. Calendar is keeping the phone in a patial wake lock. :(

Can anyone else verify that this is true of this rom? Use BatteryHistory or SpareParts and check Partial Wake Locks to see what is keeping the phone awake. For me, this is a real deal breaker right now. :(

I love the rom though!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] walkinhotdog:
hey hawst or anyone who can test, is the laggy sms conversation scrolling fixed (list of conversations and within a conversation)? I used to get huge hiccups. Thats the only thing preventing me from flashing this rom again. The new features sound awesome. Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] popmartian:
can install 2.4 over 2.3 without wipe?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Nice rom everything working 100% mate thank you.

Any chance of a 576 or 614 kernel? as my phone seems happy at these speeds and the battery drain is not bad.

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JFenlon:
Strange, it's the new market for me.

I'm not sure how I would have got it other than through this rom update because I didn't have it before. I can post the apk if anyone knows where it's located.

[edit] Never mind, I see it's no big deal now, you can get it for Android 2.1 from here.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
well, I still get doubled exchange contacts in 1.4. sorry for the bad news. but it's quite a fantastic sense rom anyway - I like all of the latest changes and the performance is really good!

well done - keep up the great work.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
I will try to use BatteryHistory andlook how it is going on. But i can u tell that i m also using calendar with events from google & exchange, and battery life is about 1.5 -2 days. About 20-30 mins talking. Wifi is on for all time.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Nothing i did to fix this, so i think no good news for you :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Yes

Will do that later. U can use SetCPU with original kernel or flykernel for now.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Thank u very much for feedback! Will continue my reserch on this.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gecsa:
Thank you,look nice, i will try it yet...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] SKRPhoenix:
Thanks for looking into this. Out of interest, is calendar at the top or near top of the partial wake list for you?

I will also test a plain install without apps/widgets over the weekend, just to see if t's an app/widget causing this issue.

Launcher pro crashes

I installed launcher pro from market and when i launch it, it keeps crashing. Any one else experiencing this problem?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] SKRPhoenix:
Hello Dev,

I have been testing the rom again this evening to see if I could work out what the problem is forme and the Calendar keeping the phone in a partial wake lock.

I wiped my phone (date, cache, dalvik, the whole lot) and installed the 2.4 rom + update. Booted into the rom and ran through the setup, setting up my google account, facebook and flickr. I let the phone sync and rebooted a couple of times. I installed Battery History. No other apps or widgets are installed or running.

I rebooted into recovery and reset the battery stats. I then booted into the rom. When booted, I switched the phone off (standby) and left it for an hour.

I switched the phone on, opened BatteryHistory and checked the partial wake locks. Calendar is at the top, the bar is full! It had kept the phone in a partial wake lock for the entire hour! The phone is in standby again now, and I will report back.

So I urge people to check what is keeping there phones in a partial wake lock, because this is a serious issue for me and I don't know if it's me, the rom or what? I really want to use this rom, but this is a dealbreaker for me. I only hope that is this is an issue, we can fix it.

Dev, please don't take offence at my post, I just feel frustrated by this issue and I do appreciate all the hard work you have put into this rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
I think we need to ask people around this topic, does anybody also has same problem ? Btw, i checked my phone and attached images.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Addon "Circle battery indicator + color icons + battery saving" is updated. Fixed, previously was no battery indicator included.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] SKRPhoenix:
I don't know if I am allowed to post pictures, but I will try in a while.

I have resotred my Tegro Nandroid this morning (clean, only BatteryHistory and ShootMe installed). Strange thing is, I was previously getting the old Market, yet today I am seeing the new one!

If I can, I will post screengrabs of BH, if I stilll have the calendar issue. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Nearest plans

Plans for near future:

At the current moment i like a lot to develop this ROM and have incredible amount of ideas to implement (all that you was asked me and much more, speed improvement also).

Of course i plan to build own 2.2 or even 2.3, but i think to have good reason and not to give to all of you just another CM rebuild... i have some ideas about that :). For all of above i spent quite a lot of my free time. And after a 4 monthes it becomes a bit annoying :) . So i m thinking to motivate myself by adding some paid features. Of course ROM itself will be free as before.

1) Kitchen - absolutely same as modaco and villain.

2) Paid version of Tegro Settings app in market - 2.4 has lite version. All new feature will be also added to lite version, but not fully, like now : lockscreen - i has 6 lockscreens: 2 is already in 2.4 and another 4 is rotary and semitransparent versions of all 3 (HTC, Stock & Rotary). Next example is configurable buttons in Sense (Rosie) - lite version 3 standard buttons, paid version is 5 buttons! Yes all is correct Sense (Rosie) will have 5 buttons! E.t.c.

3) I have ideas about to develope own Metamorph like app, i have some ideas how to make it much better then now.

I m thinking about how to mix 1 & 2 , to not ask you pay 2 times. Not 100% sure on this, but it will be done.

My head is full of ideas! I hope you will be happy to continue use this ROM and support me!

PS. Someone asked me about to add ability to test new feature & test versions of the ROM - it will be there also!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] llvllaster:
Thx for this good ROM. Is there a way to set default Theme (with green buttons not blue).?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
N. But there a couple of theme quite similar to default green.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Enter15:
Hi again hawst! I'm using Tegro 2.3 and when I try to install 2.4 my phone shows something strange:

I tried to download Tegro 2.4 three times (from megaupload, rapidshare and mediafire) and this error occurs every time. Do I need to wipe anything before update?

P.S. After setting 614 MHz instead of 691 multitouch seems to work good ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] llvllaster:
Good news. Please set also the theme to default sense hero. ;) i really like your rom because its fast and batt.life is also very good. But i hate this theme (with overall blue).

Sent from my HTC Hero
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
As i see in your log - mostly you need to free some space on DATA, i.e. uninstall some apps.

PS. Of coz you can try to do a full wipe, if nothing else will help you.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Enter15:
Well, I'm using App2SD with 512 MB ext partition (206 MB used only). I checked my data folder using Root Explorer and it shows 51,41 used, 114,34 free.

I will try to wipe dalvik later ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Oh. I'm not sure about how to upgrade when using app2sd. I'm also using app2sd, but i did full wipe coz my 2.3 became not stable after a lot of testing/debugging.

I'll take a look in 2.5 how to make upgrade possible in case app2sd usage.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] eiskrap:
Just wanted to say thanks for this ROM. Its my favourite Sense ROM of any kind, and would be interested in options 1 & 2 that you suggested.

I'll let you know if I come across any bugs.

thanks trying it out now
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Bjork62:
Hello, nice rom but how can i change the bootscreen animation?

Thank you :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
U can try one from 3rd post or if u have own bootanimation.zip, please put it to /system/etc/customer folder
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Yaaaahoooooooo! I managed to fix a lag for weather animation when trying to scroll screens after unlock!!!! Please try and post here results.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Gallery 3D fully working even with screen rotate, took it from Villain 12 and fixed screen rotation.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Enter15:
Hey hawst, did you managed to install the newest Tegro over 2.3 with app2sd? I wouldn't like to wipe everything :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Not yet. Will prepare some small update tomorrow. This update will let u install 2.4 over 2.3 with app2sd w/o wipe.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lifesaver800:
Too much battery drain :(

For about 3 hours - 45% !!!

I use only Wi-Fi
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Please check your apps, mostly it is one of them eat your battery. For about 4 monthes you 1st who tell me about this. I'm also using Wifi (i dont turn it off, only at night) and i charge my Hero one in 1.5-2 days.

My rom is 2.4+app2sd+ploc672+battery+icons.

PS. Anyway w/o any additional info i can not help you.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] eiskrap:
Yup working here, now using Rosie again, thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lifesaver800:
Hi, thanks for the fast reply!

I have nothing different apps from the previous rom(VillainROM 12) but the battery there is draining for about two days. I'm using rom 2.4+app2sd+battery booster+ icons. I don't know what is ploc672!?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
cool! that was a major issue I had with this rom, if you've solved it then it's probably the only obvious bug that most people would notice (the exchange stuff seems to be 2.1 sense rom trouble in general so not really anything you're doing wrong).

Since I'm messing with 2.3 roms right now anyway, I might as well try yours again since I'm in a flashing mood.

I'll try your gallery 3d patch too although I still prefer 2d galleries to the slow and unreliable 3d one - fixed though it may be, it's an inferior gallery app.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
plocXXX - is kernel from 1st post with hardcoded frequencies

I really dont know why it so for u :(. I think u need to do a full wipe, flash rom and may be only some ploc kernel (i suggest ploc652). If u prefer fly kernel u will install it later. Then try install apps one by one. Also dont use Titanium or similar tools to restore apps with data, especially system apps.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
that is a vital point when troubleshooting things imho. although I love tit backup and do restore user apps with data often (to maintain game save states for one thing ;-), if you don't do this one app at a time, or install clean one at a time, you will never find out which app is causing you grief.

and it is very likely that it's one particular app causing you problems. Could even be one app that works fine normally but not when restored using tit backup, or maybe only has issues with this rom, or maybe only has issues after a reboot, or maybe only dislikes you personally.

I swear I've experienced all of the above :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Legacyleader:
Hmm i Wonder if you can get 360 Rotation to work... that would be awesome http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=711132 here is thread from Desire and it works on 2.1 it even works on CDMA Hero with Rosie!

and i do some modifyng myself to get it to work...

and 1 more thing... this Rom is just awsomesauce :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
i did already 270 rotation, do u really need 360 ? It will be in 2.5
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Legacyleader:
Hawst you are a God :D looking forward to 2.5 Just get Paypal and ill buy you a Coffee :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Dimitrev:
just adding my support for this rom! been a long time villainrom supporter but they seem to have mostly abandoned the hero and esp Sense which is a must for me for any rom. this is the best sense rom i've used yet!

looking forward to 2.2 sense if you can do it and would happily pay for the settings app to support you!

keep it up!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Enter15:
hawst, you are god! Somebody wrote about battery - well, I need to charge my phone every two days (even on stock ROM) so it depends how you use your phone ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
haha, but 270 IS all the way since 360 = 0 = portrait default no rotation.

even CM finally backed down to my arguments long ago and changed their rotation naming from the incorrect values they had before to 0, 90, 180, and 270 which is as it should be.

anyway, I didn't know your rom does 270 hawst. so it does full rotation? that's cool!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
really haha :). i think he mean 180, not 360.

2.4 doesnt has 270 support. I did it about a week ago, so it will be in 2.5 only.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ULoveAriana:
Nice work on this rom, I wish it was for hero cdma :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
Going back to this rom, Like the support and the rotation sense stuff.

Ill make the gani theme with the color battery port, and a little of my own twist version so you can update the first post with it, Ill post tomorow , well thats in 5 min for me, or in a few min, But that will come :D

EDIT: Ok here comes the fun part.

I made 4 themes.

well 2 actually but 1 version is gradient battery and 1 is not.

1 version is color battery like the one Ganii made a long time ago for me with the normal sense icons. And the second one is the one I use. Completly white one till 15% then its red.

The gradient ones will flow the colors so it looks candy.

I read somewhere that gradient eats battery, Don't know about that though.

the file names of the included zips will tell which ones you got.

Ill post screens of the one that i got tomorrow. Now it is time for bed :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Nikolai2.1:

Thanks in advance
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Mostly all. Original ROM has only EN & ES locales

PS. if u want exact details & help in development, i think better to PM me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
All plocXXX links are updated.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
There is no RTL support yet in 2.4. I already added it (but not fully tested) in 2.5. Working on locales to add for RTL.

PS. If someone around is interested in RTL support, and have knowledge about RTL fonts, please PM me.

The best Hero rom, but I have a problem

Hello and thank you

this is the best rom I have seen latly and enjoy using it since 2.3.

after updated to ver.2.4.1have been using it for a week now and its the best.

fast beautyfull and has hebew.

but there is 1 problem i found that I cant seem to fix, I eaven wiped the Hero and flashed clean but still the same problem/

The problem is...when I try to creat a new contact, the new contact menu start wich askes where to put the contact.

if i pic google or phone, when presing the line to add the name of the contact, an error asking to close "htccontacts.com.android" and doesnt let me add the name of the new contact.

is there a fix to this?

am i the only 1 that has this problem?

enyway thanks

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] merlin699:
hi, I'm thinking of coming back to Tegro again. I love the extra features of this rom, that other sense roms don't have.

the only show-stopper for me is that the menu button unlocks the lockscreen. Is there any way to change this (I know some people love that menu-unlock-feature) maybe as "implemented Tegro setting" or as flashable zip-file?

thx again for this great rom!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
I dont have any problems with contacts creating, even google or any other. Which kernel/freq do u use ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Yes, i already promised this to someone. It will be there in 2.5
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mike_11:
i'm using the original kernel at 691
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
It looks like 691 to much for yr device (my too :( ), please try to use 672 or 652.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chrisjaggeruk:
Does bluetooth work properly with this release? only reason i stopped using your previous version is it wouldnt connect to my parrot car kit.

Thanks

Did u try Morelocale2 from market ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] zmen:
No not 100% translating:(((
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mike_11:
Thank you all for your help, I found the problem

The original problem was that I can't add contacts to the phone or google.

the app would crash.

after flashing the rom time and time again, with no overclock and still the problem again.

then I flashed other roms and then, no problems at all.

that left me puzzeled.

so installed the tegro rom again, but this time chose English instead of Hebrew (there is an option to choos to install hebrew rom,not english Israel) and WOW the problem dissapeared!

so my concluzion is that this problem is only if you install the rom to HEBREW languag.

it had nothing to do with the overclock

thank you all for tring to help.

after all the rom installtions...this is still the best rom for hero.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] AdmcPL:
Hello, I just flashed Tegro 2.4.1, previously I was using RCMix v2.2b.

ROM is very nice and I like it, but there's two things:

1. RCMix have animated flip clock (that was probably ported from HTC Desire), Tegro have un-animated flip clock. Is there a way to get animated flip clock?

2. RCMix have semi-transparent lock screen, I found tutorial how to get semi-transparent screen on Hero. Will it work on Tegro?

EDIT: There's another bug, after flashing Flykernel 12a, wifi doesn't work. It says "Can't turn on wifi".
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Thanks a lot for your testing. Can u tell me where to take a fonts for Hebrew ? I will take a note on this, not promise that will do it quickly, but i will take a look.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
1) It is there, just add it to screen - "ClockWidget (flip)", U even can have 2 widgets : flip and nonflip together on one screen :)

2) If this guide describe how to patch resources - it should work.

3) A lot of people around use 12a flykernel with Tegro rom w/o any problems (i'm tried it too). So probably u did something wrong :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] merlin699:
had the "Can't turn on wifi"-problem myself, too. after a *full*-wipe and new flashing it worked for me. even with flykernel.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Thanks for feedback, i got an idea why it may happen. Will try to fix in 2.5
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mike_11:
I will gladly give you an image file that flashes the hebrew fonts + pdac heb keyboard.

I realy dont remember where I got it from but in my opinion its the easyest way to install hebrew+keybord on to the Hero.

I can send it eny way you like...mail or what ever you like, just tell me how.

Mike
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
U can attach it here to your post or upload to some fileshare (eg. multiupload or mediafire or any other).

I tried these few times and WiFi still doesn't work :(

Please note that wifi works with standard kernel.

Hebrew font+pdac keyboard

Hello

this is an image file to flash through recovery to the Hero.

the file will install Hebrew font and the hebrew keyboard.

I dont remember from where I downloaded it from and epologise for not giving credit for the file.

I will gladly give credit.

enjoy

Mike
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Mostly there is not enough space on system , so wifi driver (which is included with every kernel) are lost when u try to install flykernel.

My suggestion.

1) Full wipe

2) Flash Tegro

3) Flash fitnesspack-lite, to remove some unnessary apps (3rd post)

4) Flash flykernel

5) profit!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Thank u man, will take a look on this later.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ZeppeMan:

I must say this ROM is incredibly smooth and fast and above that, it also looks good :)

Very nice work on this one!

For now i'm keeping 6.1 CyanogenMod, but if I think how smooth this ROM is I don't know wich one to choose (because I like it smooth :p).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] AdmcPL:
