Look at the 1st post, section Kernels
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:
hawst, I tried searching, but did not find if there is patch or a way to change those rose notification bubble (number of unread emails) near mail or messages icons to green, for example.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
No patch. I tried to do that but no luck. If u know which files i need to replace tell me - I will do that.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] L0cke:
I think those files are: 'common_notification_on.png' and 'common_notifiction2.png'

Found in the 'com.htc.resources.apk/res/drawable-mdpi'

...this is where they are for a normal Sense ROM, so should be the same, unless they are found in the individual theme apk's.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] boypower:
hi hawst!

1st of all i should say its a great rom .... thanks for all your hardwork...

i just wanted to ask is there any chance we can have desire hd themes like ...

http://www.villainrom.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?3426-Metal-Theme ?

http://www.villainrom.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?3078-Rosie-Theme ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Yes, if someone will port thesse themes :). May be i will take a look, when will have a time...

PS. Themes are good and i like it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Looks like this is solved ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
you're one of the most supportive, responsive, dedicated and hard working rom builders I've ever seen!

Hero users are very lucky to have someone like you around.

cheers

This is one awesome ROM dude. Nice to have sense back. Top work, keep it up.

V1.7.2 Cronos® Speed Machine

DHD Heartbreaking
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:
Oh thats cool. Do you mind making an update zip or share that apk so I can push it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Ok, will do that today later.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] L0cke:
Both themes are already mdpi. The Rosie one has just a few changes, mainly to Rosie, but the Metal theme I fully ported from a Desire HD ROM. Not sure if they can be easily incorporated but feel free to use what's there :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Wow, thank u a lot for so fast answer! And even in my theme :D

There will be a little difference. Most of images are need to be moved into Theme file. But some still requere to mod apps. I will take a look later.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] paulb1320:
I installed the rom and it works great however now I am having troubles dialing toll free numbers. In fact anytime I try to dial a number with the eleven digits instead of ten (eg 1-403-123-4567 instead of 403-123-4567) Everytime I try I get "8UC1 Your call cannot be completed as dialed"

Please help this is annoying cause it completely ruins the convenience of the call history tap to dial function.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Sorry, but i dont have ideas what can be cause :(.

Guys, anybody have same problems. May be someone have ideas how to solve this ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Hello guys!

I have important and sad new - i sold my Hero :(. The guy who buyed mobile didnt give me a chance to finish my tasks to complete all my plans for 2.5.

1) Tegro future - In next few days i will release 2.5. Not all planned features are implemented. But i hope u will like it.

2) As for other my plans (I mention some time ago) - all of them will be completed, except ones which is for Tegro itself.

3) I will read this topic some weeks more and will try to answer to all questions or at least will give some suggestions.

PS. I will rx my DesireZ by next week and i may tell u - there will new Tegro for DZ ;)

PPS. Let me tell all of u huge thanks for help me to make Tegro as good as we can see it now. Without all of you Tegro would never have become so good and popular, i'm 200% sure :)!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinaipt99:
i really love this thread as much as i do fc porto. im using hawst's tegro's 2.4 and its the best rom on hero ever i've tried. keep in mind that he is developping something towards the community and himself. im sure you hawst. can make somerhing new but you all can give it a rest?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinaipt99:
in hawst we trust
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] merlin699:
wow, sad news. hawst was definitely the most engaged developer who took care about every small user problem.

thank you for this great rom, looking forward to flashing 2.5, it will be great, I'm sure!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Sure at 1st i will play on non rooted device enough :). Coz i really like DesireZ!

Btw, if someone around decide to continue development , i can give access to all sources of Tegro ROM. Actually sources are hosted at Mercurial repository on bitbucket.com. There are full sources from burn of rom (even before 1.0) and until now.

Requirements for those who want continue - knowledge of android development, and what applications has inside and for what. Common knowledge on Android system itself. And at least how is working addons like app2sd and kernels.

PS. I cannot release all sources for free because of nonfree original rom from HTC. Sources are smali codes.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Cero92:
Wonderful ROM! I'm using it with Flykernel lite and it's working great, thanks a lot :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Karmus:
This is the most stunning ROM graphically that I have ever tried. However I find it very buggy with a lot of crashes, but the most critical thing is the phone-application, which crashes randomly within some hours and makes me unable to make or receive calls/sms/mms/internet and so on unless I reboot. I hope 2.5 will fix these random FCs.

I have previously been a MoDaCo and VillainROM user. Does anybody know a stable ROM with such an amazing amount of themes and customization abilities, now that this will be abandoned?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Mostly u did something wrong. Coz noone other mentioned that phone has FCing, it is really issue that will cross all super features of any rom. To ensure please do next steps. Goto recovery, make nandroid backup of yr current system. Do full wipe (system,data,cache,sd-ext) at least 3 times. Try to install rom and maybe ploc614 or ploc633 kernel. Nothing else!!! No any addons or themes. Try to boot and dont install any apps at all for 1-2 days. After that u can revert and tell us about results.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] merlin699:
never ever had one single fc of the phone-app.

the whole system is running very stable for me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] L0cke:
Wow, will be sad to see you leave the Hero scene hawst. But very much looking forward to the final release and seeing what's in store. The 5 Rosie layout sounds amazing, so really hoping that's one of the features you have been able to implement. If not, you have still managed to make one hell of a rom. Thanks for all your work and good luck for the future :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
I'm sorry but 5 rosie layout is only 50% done and as dont have hero now - it will quite difficult yo finish it :(. Same is true for Stock android lockscreen integration to incall screen.

But, i have some ideas. I already got my DZ and root it and my hands are asking me to do something with DZ rom ;). So:

1) i plan to implement all my ideas on DZ rom.

2) so i think someone can port those implementations to Hero. May be i will implement it myself, but it will a bit hard to develope like a blind :).

PS. Dont trust 100% all the above, i will try that but real life can change my plans...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] L0cke:
Would it be possible to incorporate this mod into this ROM. Would be very handy :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fiftho:
hmm, which one is the latest?..

problems with MMS.. setup is correct, but still can't connect
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DonNaWaF:
hi Does this rom support RTL languegs like arabic and...etc ??
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Karmus:
Thanks for the tip, hawst. So far no apps have caused problems. I have a suspicion that it might have been one of the theme APKs.

However, I have another question. When I try cp /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /system/etc/customer in adb shell, after changing mount from ro to rw I get cp: write error: No space left on device (the file is 7 MB, perhaps I could make it smaller by decreasing image quality). Am I doing anything wrong? And is it possible to put sound to your own bootscreen too? I have read on this forum* that you'll have to call your file android_audio.mp3

* = Can't post links, but it is incredibleforum.com/forum/htc-incredible-general-discussion/998-incredible-boot-animation-6.html#post15023
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
All is latest, just choose which freq is better to u, or take setcpu compatible (non plocXXX)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:
Just for information.

Since I don't like very much that blueish color I decide to work on a green version of this ROM. It will have default green Hero sense colors and icons, but with slide layout.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
I added this into 2.5 but didnt tested it properly. I hope it will work...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
better to do next things:

1) remove /system/etc/customer folder

2) make link to /data/local, run command 'ln -s /data/local /system/etc/customer'

3) put bootanimation.zip into /data/local

Or u can take thunderbolt boot animation as base and change bootanimation.zip inside and resign (see 3rd post).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Awesome idea man!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:
I think I found a bug, but could be also only me related since I start to play around with resources.

Lockscreen music controls are not working properly. Its kinda works, but extremely laagy. If I press buttons few times, nothing happens, but when I unlock screen it repeats all buttons I pressed previously with few seconds interval. Weird.

Also slide down bar is missing in lockscreen while listening music.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DonNaWaF:
thank you for fixing it .. i cant wait for the update .. thank you ..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] minty1978:
Hi hawst, any chance of a port of the new 2.2 rom :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=928250
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
1) It will be absolutely same as we have already Legend/Area port :(

2) Mostly u miss important thing, i dont have Hero anymore :(

PS. I going to release 2.5 by this week.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
1) - well, no. it's a froyo slide rom isn't it? that would certainly be nice to have, but I suspect it would be like starting over for you...

2) that is terrible news for us, but I guess it's good news for you! I wish you could have kept it, but it's not like you get paid for this great work.

you've brought the best, imho the first fully working and finished, slide rom to the hero. thank you from everyone!

I can't wait for 2.5 and anything else you manage to bring to us!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] minty1978:
Yep its froyo slide...would be nice.

Shame you haven't got the hero any more.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
in the 2.2 slide rom that was mentioned, the camera will likely never work on the hero unless they did things very differently with that froyo sense rom than they did with non-slide roms @ htc. it seems unlikely they'd have done things that differently though...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Karmus:
I get a failure with the check_animation or check_bootanimation (can't remember if it's first or second) after copy-process when I try to flash the Thunderbolt-zip from Amon RA. Also, when I try to copy the files manually to linked /data/local (from /system/etc/customer) and also as a resigned zip flashed with my own modifications, I get a black screen after my custom splash (rgb565) has been displayed long enough, sometimes the standard 'my'-bootscreen starts playing after a while.

This is the zip-file: (have tried both with JPG frames and PNG frames and as winzipped files with no compression - same result)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
1) Of coz its Froyo :), and there will our best of the best Espresso interface. But i mean stability/issues.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:
Well, I almost finished theming to green, but I'm going nuts with blue progress bar, the one when you change volume. I looked into single png in com.htc.resources.apk and framework-res.apk I just can't find it where its located :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Take a look on files progress_*.xml in drawable folder of framework-res.apk
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] L0cke:
It's an .xml file. You need to decompile it and edit the hex colour value.

There was a thread about which one it was and how to change it. Let me look and report back...

...hawst beat me to it. Yeah, it'll be one of those :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:
Great! I gone look into it.

Btw, just noticed that video recording with mpeg4 codec does not work, h.263 is fine so.

edit: ahh...and maybe somebody know how to fix missing "H" icon in status bar for 3G connections? All framework files are there, probably something to do with config.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
1) Did u read 1st post "- For camera video recording please read 2nd post, Version 2.0 changes, line about Camera MPEG4"

2) Mostly it is ROM feature, its just not show H, but use it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fiftho:
Did, guess in the wrong order.. This will just make a difference for new apps, so I should uninstall/install.. or just wipe, run the addon and start over? :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
No, please google a little. In android 2.1 apps2sd is small hack, which chage /data/app folder to link and points it to partition on sd card. so that system still think that internal memory used. No need to wipe or uninstall any app. Just flash addon from recovert and after normal boot all yr apps will be moved to partition on sd card
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fiftho:
got it.. can FEEL the difference ;)

thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rionline:
hi hawst,

your rom is my daily. it is the fastest and most stable rom there is. i luv it. i can't wait for 2.5. Btw. could you change to H instead of 3G? It feels faster! ^^

so thanks for your hard work!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] emanuelemix:
Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee we want 2.5 rom todayyy :D

TIA
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arifqur:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:

- non-HTC lockscreens updated a bit

- statusbar window (mobile operator + Clear button) panel is themized

- Fix lag in weather animation after screen unlock

- Contacts application now has "Updates & Events" tab

- Fixed dark font on dark bg for popups in browser

- bootanimation now can be in /data/local, not more need to put it in /system/etc/customer

- ability to upgrade w/o wipe from any 2.x when u use app2sd

- Autoshoot after manual focus in camera

- Enable/Disable menu key for unlock

Download. Mirror.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] AdmcPL:
Flashing right now!

EDIT:

I can't flash this, I got:

E:Can't symlink /system/etc/customer
E:Failure at line 386:
symlink /data/local SYSTEM:etc/cutromer

Installation aborted.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:
/signed

got same problem

edit: I removed that line in update_script, resigned pack and it worked
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] L0cke:
Confirmed. Same for me. Gets pretty much to the end then fails with the above.

EDIT: Booted anyway and it seems okay. Anyone know what that error actually means?...

...scratch that. Something is deff wrong. FC on keyboard, so can't use that.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:
I'm already very used to have frequent crashes and FC on 1st, 2nd even after 3rd reboot with this ROM, but as jpool81 said HTC_IME crashes constantly and won't run. I could restore my swiftkey with titanium backup otherwise it could be pretty useless ROM :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] AdmcPL:
Confirmed, FC when trying to launch HTC IME keyboard.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DonNaWaF:
same for me .. it booted but forces closes .. is there fix for it ..

and you didnot add ararbic fonts ..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] adanailov:
hi,why when i try to flash your rom, every time is failure?

E:Failure at line 386
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shinaipt99:
Hi hawst!

Any possibility of getting locale in Portuguese?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Yes, there is some error in script. But that line is last in the script so you can ignore that error. Mostly now it means nothing. I will remove that line later. More important is to ensure that /etc/system/customer now becomes link to /data/local

Thank u guys for feedback. Its quite strange that keyboard FCing, i will take a look. Can someone please post here logcat of crash. And can u try to use HTCIMEmod ?

Hm. I didnt promise that. There are causes: 1) I dont know arabic at all and mostly i will be no able to properly check it, so its better to u find arabic fonts and replace in system/fonts folder. 2) I dont have HTC Hero anymore :( - so all current development i do like a blind and only all and every of u can help me finish it.

Man, did u check before to ask ? It should be there, at least in list of locales in system and keyboard settings. If u still use 2.4, please search thru this thread for addon to enable pt_?? locales on 2.4 or u can use MoreLocale2 application from market.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DonNaWaF:
thank you hawst for your good rom .. I found arabic fonts and I will install it ..

I install GB keyboard it work but some time forces close .. and again thank you for your work ..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Please post here your expiriens with arabic fonts and RTL - how is it ?

Keyboard i will check it.

Anyone tested enable/disable menu key to unlock on HTC and Stock lockscreen ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DonNaWaF:
edit: ok now I tested it after install arabic fonts the RTL fix does not works ):

i will do more tests and feed back ..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
whitealien, thank u very much for logs. Can u please post here logcat of loading, i.e. : flash 2.5rc1, boot 1st time, turn off phone, connect to pc, run adb logcat > logcat.txt, turn on phone, wait until it fully load, post here logcat.txt

PS. Mostly error is in HtcLockScreen and it prevent it from loading and possible produce some other errors...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:
Here clean 2nd boot logcat after fresh install.

P.S. I think there are also some issues with framework.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Tegro 2.5RC2 - download, mirror

Changes:

- fixed installtion script

- fixed HTC lockscreen, now should be possible to switch

- fixed keyboard
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
Nice! .......
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:
Yeah! Everything work fine, so far.

Another thing. There is no alarm controls in stock lockscreen. So if you set alarm you cant turn it off, lol.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
what? don't alarm apps replace the lockscreen when the alarm goes off? It sort of seems that's how it works with klaxon on gb roms (for example) but I' mnot sure that's what is really happening.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:
In other ROMs it may work properly and it also works fine with default htc lockscreen (which was not available in RC1), but hawst ported default android lockscreen to sense rom. In this case currently it does not implements alarm and also music controls.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Her0o:
thank u 4 ur efforts...

My [Q] i have arabic font from 2.1 fallah rom in this Thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=706649

is this font compatible with this rom?

and can i replace the font folder before installing your rom? or make flashing after?

Regards..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] whitealien:
confused

I'm still trying to theme this ROM with HTC Hero theme and getting some problems.

1st method I just unzipped framework files, replaced pngs, ziped back = done. This way all framework is working, BUT, there is big but, you can't handle 9patchimages this way. Some buttons are little distored, not much, something by 1-2 pixels, but still not perfect so I used 2nd method.

2nd method I used apktool to decode framework files (including framework files from other sense ROM), replaced pngs, build back with apktool, sign and zipalign.

On boot all services crashes. I dont get why. Most important statusbar is missing and statusbar service is 1st on list to crash.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] L0cke:
Providing you're replacing 'like for like' .png's there should be no problem. The .png's in this ROM differ to that of stock Hero Sense UI though, in some areas. With the 9.png's as long as you are not changing them, again there should be no problem, drag from one framework to the other.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DonNaWaF:
did u fix RTL in the new update RC2 ??

and for any one wants Arabic Fonts just flash this

http://www.mediafire.com/?pmqnn0wxob53255
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Mmmmm, wait. Did u try ? 2.4 works same way, absolutely - when alarm happen phone unlock and show u dialog with Snooze & Dismiss buttons, isnt it ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Please try to set alarm with stock lockscreen and see. Yeah there is no alarm and music controls on stock lockscreen. But u will be able to dismiss alarm - trust me ! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hawst:
Really, i dont know is compatible or not :(. U can replace fonts at any time. I think good way is to replace fonts 1st boot and setupwizard finish. I will try to research more on how to make arabic fonts work.
