Smartass scaling ;) I think flykernel is bit faster than standard kernel used in this rom.

Anyway I have another problem. After deleting files in /system/customize/resource i got black screen instead of boot animation on booting. So I just put bootanimation.zip from official htc rom (I don't like orginal boot screen in this ROM) and it's not working. I also tried to put bootanimation files in /sytem/media/bootscreen but it doesn't work too. How I can change bootscreen or deactivate splash to get pr0-haxor console on booting?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] merlin699:
just another question:

in VR12 I have the function "updates & events" in the contacts application. I don't find this feature in Tegro.

Is there a way to activate it?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
To change bootscreen please put bootanimation.zip to /system/etc/customer
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
I have no answer, will take a look on this later.

PS. Just checked, tab is here, just invisible. Will try to make it visible and see will it works or not.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Attached is small update to enable "Updates and events" tab in Contacts application. Please dont forget to do a backup!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] CrabMan:
So is it based on 2.1 2.2 or 2.3?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] merlin699:
you are the best! thank you very much.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rozitg:
Hmmm I don't have this localisation? :/
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] AdmcPL:
Thanks, it works.

Just create it.

I have one more question. How I can update superuser app? I tired to update it from market, but I got "unable to update this app". I even removed /system/app/superuser.apk and tried to install superuser from market but I got "unable to install this app" and I had to restore nandroid backup.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
what's wrong with the old version? it's not like su really changes much...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
It's 2.1 based
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Hm... it seems i tried to update it from market, time ago, and it worked. Will take a look and revert.

Btw, u can download 'update.zip' around this forum and flash it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] evelryu:
Can you guys include Brazilian Portuguese language (pt_BR) in one of the next updates?

Thanks for the incredible rom, love it on my hero.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
I'm here along :)

Attched is small update to enable pt_BR locale. But u need to do a full wipe, sorry but it's not possible to add new locale w/o wipe and reflash the rom.

So u need to:

1) download attached file and put it in sd near the 2.4 zip

2) do a full wipe

3) flash 2.4

4) flash this update

5) flash any other updates/kernels/thems/etc

reboot and enjoy

PS. SOrry will reupload it soon.

PPS. Reuploaded
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinaipt99:
This rom looks really great :D but i have a question...

Is it possible to be pt_pt? i mean the full system language and keyboard?

Thank you in advance!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Yes, it's supported.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinaipt99:
thanks for the quick answer! will flash it in the next minutes :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
I managed to fix dark text on dark background in popup of browser' dropdown!

But, this fix is inside framework-res.apk (system framework). So i will not upload this update until 2.5.

Btw, i suggest to look for other places like that abd write here about yr findings.

PS. I decide to upload it, but only 1 - themed with 'battery 3 + icons 3 + battery saving' (this is a mix from 1 and 2 themes used by me).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Some updates for all of you - i woking now on 2 big tasks:

1) User configurable buttons in Sense (3 or 5)

2) Incoming call lockscreen same as the system one
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinaipt99:
Hello again :)

Flashed this (AMAZING!) rom and im really enjoying it since im a huge sense fan. but i found some small problems... on nature theme, sliding down the settings the letters get all mixed. also, its killing some processes when applying new settings on phone. last but no least, facebook sync is not working since i choose the contact, try to link it to fb contact and nothing shows up... any help on thins questions?

im really enjoying this rom and im glad you are still working on it to make improvements! keep it up!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
1) Please keep in mind, after u change the theme please reboot phone. Its mostly not possible to fix (explained in 1st post).

2) Can u give screenshot with glitches ?

3) I have facebook contacts also even some of them linked with google ones and exchange ones, no any problems so far.

Hey, guys, do any of you has similar problems with fb contacts ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinaipt99:
The contacts are working now. I updated Facebook and restarted. It automatically made the sync. It seems that this rom needs a few restarts to get fully working. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
...this rom sounds like me in the morning...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Updated theme 'battery3 + icons3 + battery saving' now with 100% fix of dark text on dark bg for dropdown select dialog.

Other themes: wait for 2.5 or do it yrself
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinaipt99:
Hi hawst!

Is it possible to change the dock shortcuts? i have phone, menu and camera and i would like to change the camera shortcut to something else.

Thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Working on that!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinaipt99:
Keep it up! :cool:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] merlin699:
great work!

I want to change over to Tegro again. Is there a rough ETA of 2.5?

or will it be possible to upgrade from 2.4.1 to 2.5 without full wipe?

thx
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] evelryu:
Quick question, if i install Flykernel i need to install "JIT on update" or the flykernel takes care of JIT?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
the jit on only works on the default kernel, If you try it with fly you will end in a bootloop or it will boot, but no jit. So only works on the default kernel. But on a hero JIT is no advantage on 2.1 roms, bring only more problems then speed.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
No ETA. Working on 2.5, but no idea when i will finish it.

Yes it will be possible, 100% sure.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] CrabMan:
I flashed tegro 2.4, update to 2.4.1, original kernel in OP-post, app2sd, weather fix, fitness pack, jit-on. When the phone 1st time boots, it shows me settings wizard, i choose wi-fi network, google account and other things and when i close it i see looping boot animation instead of home screen, can't get through it. What's wrong?

It works fine with jit-off
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
I'm alwasy suggest to not use Jit on Hero. Reason is that our hw is not for Jit. Memory and cpu will not give any real effort of Jit, but mostly give a some bugs.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Found good bootanimation around the XDA, details and video there - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=911341

Requires 12Mb free space in DATA (where user apps is installed) !!! If u use app2sd - dont worry about.

multiupload

Updated: 14/01/11 - Fix possible problem
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] CrabMan:
Ok, i installed jit-off, it worked but almost every app force-closed very often. And benchmarks showed very bad results. The I installed jit-on again. And it worked! Force-closes stopped (maybe just because of reboot), benchmark results improved, interface became less laggy. What program for overclocking would you suggest to use? And what radio module should I use for Moscow - MTS?

Another question: is it able to install opengles 1.1 on this firmware?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
1) I suggest to read 4pda.ru forum - http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=188453&view=getnewpost .

2) What is cpu speed ? FCs cause can be very different, mostly i suggest to do a full wipe and reflash the rom one more time. Or it may be to big cpu speed. btw, did u read that after change the theme u will face a lot of FC ?

3) For overclocking suggest to use plocXXX kernels. On 4pda forum look into 7hero theme and read about the kernels (whats is difference between ploc & nploc). Those kernels are fully compatible with Tegro.

4) Radio any of latest ones, u need to try and see. I'm use latest - 17.03 (last digits). Tried all others 3 radios and find no difference for me, but some people got issues with some radios. It is mostly depend on your mobile provider. And quality of provider' hardware.

5) Yes i preapred even update zip for gles1.1, but my expirience showed me that interface becomes not smooth with it. But gives about 1 more fps in neocore :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Updated post with Thunderbolt boot animation. Fixed possible problem with installation.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinaipt99:
Hello hawst :) do you recommend any specific kernel? I'm running base one, from the rom. Also, what can we expect on the new update?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sjknight413:
Hiya Hawst :)

I have come back to your rom after flashing numerous others because it is the fastest and smoothest sense rom out there, and i prefer the espresso look!

cant wait for the 2.5 update!

just a quick question for ya,

i have found this zip file full of themes:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=OEAPBBAN

they all install wonderfully and there is some really nice ones in there! but there is one problem, they all bring back those damn bubbles you removed! haha. i hate them and im glad you got rid of them, but i wondered if you would maybe be able to take the bubbles out of a few/all of these themes? especially the DOWNTOWN one :)

and who knows, you may want to include them in an optional update or something!

thanks for reading,

-Sam
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] McKriss:
Rosie doesn't start after the PIN code screen for me. Home button unresponsive too. Had to do a nandroid restore :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xtkme:
a2sd

A little more on A2SD thing here...

I've been using A2SD script provided in the 1st post and everything works just fine until recently that my cache partition was running out of space.

Anyone has an idea of how to move dalvik-cache to the ext2/3 partition rather than /cache ? There should be plenty more spaces there and that we have no need to worry about the storage anymore.

Thanks in advance ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
1) I suggest to use plocXXX kernels, but u free to use flykernel also, this is up to u. Better to try and see which kernel u will like more :)

2) A lot of new features. Much more improved Tegro Settings. There will be no much of addons, but there will more settings in Tegro Settings. U can search last 10 may be bit more pages for my plans on this rom.

1) U can take a look on this post - http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=188453&view=findpost&p=6233947 (sorry its in russian, but u can use google translate), downtown is there. To remove bubbles u need to replace 2 files in theme and resign .apk file. File name is container_bg.png in folders res/drawable-port and res/drawable-land. With one i attached to this post. Btw, as i wrote before, i prefer to develop and not do a theming, so i always suggest to yr guys try to do it yrself, this is not too difficult.

You give me another idea - i will add another setting into Tegro Settings app, which let user choose use bubbles or not.

Yeah, i have such script and using it already, will publish it in next few days.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] evelryu:
Some esthetically tips for one of next updates. :p

1 Option on Tegro Settings to hide or customize carrier name on lock screen.

2 Opition to hide "draw to unlock" info on music lockscreen or at least make it appear only when we touch the screen like on regular lockscreen.

3 Option to hide some apps on appdrawer.

4 Replace the old youtube app for the new youtube app hacked for 2.1 and include the desire Gallery 3d that is a lot better and support multitouch pinch pick (both attached).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xtkme:
Nice to hear ;) Looking forward to it... Thanks hawst.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
1,2) Will think about that

3) Its not so simple, will try, but dont know when it will be

4) I trying to keep rom with original apps mostly. But you free to use any of them. Gallery3D is already added to Addons(3rd post). Youtube is not fully working so i dont think it will good to include, as i remember it FC after login, or this FC fixed already ?.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Small addon in 3rd post - "app2sd + dalvik2sd". Can be installed on top of app2sd
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] evelryu:
It's working very well here nothing different in comparing with the original version on 2.2.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Did u try to login ? Will take a look later.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] evelryu:
Yes i logged well, and got no FC's even after some minutes of use.

I used adb push to install but before i removed the old youtube app and data.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Just tried. Really here is not Fcs anymore, but after login i always got network error in some places (eg. my videos or similar videos). If i logged of - no such errors. So i dont think its good idea to add it into rom. We can add it into 3rd post, with description that possible some errors, coz of backported from 2.2
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] evelryu:
I removed the bubbles from all themes, tested only some, but they all should work well, used same process on all .

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=21H4OQ6V

Link update: I heave removed the bubbles on first link, but i noticed that in some themes theres still a transparent gloss over icons... Now no Bubbles and no Gloss.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Wow! Thanks a lot! Added to 3rd post.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ZeppeMan:
When 2.5 comes out this will be may daily ROM.

Why? Just because this ROM is the smoothest I ever used on my Hero.

I used android 2.2 for quite some time now, then I flashed this one just outta ceriousity. And I must say Tegro is just as fast and so much smoother!!

Great work on this one!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] evelryu:
Well i dont getting any kind of error, im over wi-fi network... working well and fast here. :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lynx2k50:
I think i will give it also a try when 2.5 comes out. Running Froyo but missing Sense.

Btw. Is it possible to disable the rotation in sense?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Yes, there is Tegro Settings application which has some features to choose and will get much more features in 2.5
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lynx2k50:
And there is no ETA for 2.5!?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Oh, guys, you so impatient :). By this month 100% sure, may be earlier... I want to do a few really big things before to release 2.5. 2.4 is more then good for gladly everyday use, isn't it ? So, if you really want - flash 2.4 now and be happy ;). When 2.5 will come - it will be 100% sure possible to upgrade it w/o wipe, even if u use app2sd.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lynx2k50:
Hehe yeah you are right. thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lynx2k50:
Btw: there are a lot of addons which i want to flash.

should i reboot after i flash the rom the first time or should i flash flykernel, app2sd, weather fix, battery icons immediately after flashing the rom?

And i have also want to try a new theme from your links. I want to use "lyric ink". Its an apk. Only install it with e.g. OI file explorer?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:
Can someone confirm if Auto brightness works properly?

For me when activated it stays on full brightness.3

P.S. Yeah, plz no bubbled icons :p

edit: btw no double exchange contacts for me. Everything is correct. Are you sure you did not screw up something with sync?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
It is ok for me, i'm daily using of Jabra X10 BT headset (w/o carkit) - and works fine.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
- Autobrightness is work, sometimes it switched from auto to 100% after camera usage, but it is same on all Hero roms. It seems sometime camera forget to switch brightness back to original state.

- How many exchange accounts do u have ? I think issue is possible only for case when u have more then 1 account on the same server.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] orangeclanz:
A noob question here.Is this froyo sense rom or eclair?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] L0cke:
Eclair 2.1
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] peachananr:
Is there a way to optimize the scrolling in the app drawer. It's seems very laggy. This seems to happen on all Sense roms, which i believe it's the way HTC coded it. It's very laggy compare to the stock 2.1 launcher anyway.

On Chocolate Eclair 2.0 ROM, the lag when scrolling on the app drawer was smoother than this, so it there a way to apply any optimization done there to this rom?

Other then this, this rom rocks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Will take a look on this.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:
Are you sure it works? When I put finger on light detector screen does not dim. Maybe dim values are wrong? So the manual screen brightness works fine.

I have only one account and sync is setup on phone. I don't use HTC sync on PC. I was thinking that maybe you get double contacts when you sync with exchange on phone and on PC.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Yes, i m sure. I tested it next way: goto to out of office/home at the sunny day or at evening/night. Goto settings, set brightness to abt 40%. Look how screen becomes darker. Then set brightness to auto - it reverts to prev state.

Another way is - set brightness to about 40%, then open camera, wait few second while autofocus will finish and brightness will be auto ajusted, then close camera - brightness will back to prev state. Actually this is a bit hard to understand how it works, but im sure it works same as on our Hero roms.

Actually i have no such problem (also have only one exchange account), i just suggested possible cause.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
About FriendStream widget - just checked it and at me it works for facebook.

I found that FriendStream app has settings 'Show update' where we can choose what sources to use (Facebook,Flickr,Twitter). Can u guys check on this ?

PS. Will do more testing tomorrow. Need to reinstall my rom, it becomes buggy after a ton of experiments.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DaHandy:
Nice ROM but there is no way to install apps on SD card? Could you make an update? Thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Is it so difficult to read 1st post carefully ?

Ah, you mean 3rd post! Thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Welcome :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DaHandy:
Sorry to bother you but just one more stupid question.

Do I install the App2SD addon through the recovery menu (flash zip from SD card)?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
yes, like any other theme or addon
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DaHandy:
Ok, thanks. I just wanted to make sure because this is my first custom ROM on my Android phone. I have previously had a HTC Touch Diamond with many custom WinMo ROMs though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fahad123:
seems like a great rom.. can anybody confirm if its a SENSE ROM?

plus is it apps2SD enabled rom?

Thanks in advance..

Best Regards.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DaHandy:
It is a Sense rom and you can enable App2SD as an addon.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] singlico:

1、Hope to add support for Chinese

2、fc in the weather location set

Swype

Hawst can i first say what a great rom this is, and thanks for all your work! Please does anyone have a version of Swype that works with this rom? :)

my tegro here is working very well and fast but my hapitic feedback is kinda buggy, sometimes it simple dont respond for some commands them after somo seconds w/o no response it give a big shake, any idea on how to fix this?

Im using 2.4 with, app2sd and flykernel @672/160
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
This is issue of fly kernels after 12pre6. So u can install flykernel 12pre6 or any of plocXXX kernels
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] evelryu:
Can i install a plocXXX over flykernel? w/o problems?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
yes. u can install mostly any kernel over any other.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lynx2k50:
Does the plocXXX base on Flykernel? Wanna know if the battery life is the same as in flykernel,also the performance and so on.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
No, plocXXX is based on Stock Hero kernel sources from HTC' site, there are only few optimizations + OC + tun.ko (OpenVPN) + DroidWall + rVoid + rebuilt with compiler from Android 2.3. There http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=170135&view=findpost&p=4821739 is original post with full description, sorry its in russian (please use google translate) and author dont want to post it here on XDA. Comparing with fly, it is a just a bit slowly in Neocore, but smother on my look. Have a same battery life. I think better to try, for me it is best kernel for Hero when ever.

Little question???

Hello,

Always looking for a ROM with the least possible bug, hyper reactive and contain the latest features introduced in Android, I think yours is really excellent, but always makes me hesitate with the different ROM sense for all of their opportunities customization.

I await the arrival of imparience with your version 2.5, in order to test it and at the same time, do you think your application settings TEGRO, it would easily customize posibble Rosie at color change, management transparency, etc, etc, etc. ...

I know this is hard work and time, but you have a rough idea of what this future release version?

PS: Sorry if I missed a post already asking this question and had an answer, I do not speak English and is quite tedious for me to follow all the discussions and sometimes to understand what is said despite the Google translation .

Thank you in advance for your reply.:):):)

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] raxv2:
does it has flash? 10 or 11?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Yes, Flash lite as any other Sense ROM.

flash 10 or 11 can't ever work on the hero - that's a fact that will never change.

flash lite is surprisingly good though.
