[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Psyndrome:
for some reason i cannot connect to internet using my mobile connection. WiFi works fine.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] minty1978:
you will probably need to manually add your APN settings.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Psyndrome:
Thanks! I just went to APN names and just added a new APN. Just gave it a name and works fine now.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] seagerfreak:
My wifi doesn't work unless I set IP , Gateway and DNS manually. Any fix for the camera?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] boypower:
I really like to thank for this rom... its really awesome... fast, no laggy, no fc etc...

so far i am so happy :)

except the

camera & Numbers come up instead of name from phonebook....

Did somebody able to find a fix for it ?

its really annoying :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] homeinisa:
works pretty well on my HERO, but cant use it until camera is fixed :( the screen also doesn't work very smoothly sometimes it tilts.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Malveiro:
First:

Thank you for this Rom. Works (and does not work) as advertised.

Second:

Question about the contacts / caller id / country code issue:

From what I researched it is something related with the phoneutils MIN_MATCH setting or the libsqlite.so file.

Since Floydvillain's Rom doesn't have this issue is it possible to replace the libsqlite.so file with the one from that Rom and resync Google contacts or use kitchen (i'm way newbie on all this...) to change the MIN_MATCH value somewhere?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Malveiro:
Success!

I replaced the libsqlite.so with the one from froydvillan 1.6 via ADB, cleared data from contacts app (attention: clear data from the app does not mean deleting contacts from People - DO NOT DELETE CONTACTS) and resynced again.

Incoming calls are now being identified correctly even without country code from the operator.

One less problem to solve :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] boypower:
Hi Friend

can you please help me fixing that problem too... i am new to this stuff.... so if you can, then a little guide really helps n much appreciated :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Malveiro:
Sure. Newbies unity! :-)

ON YOUR PHONE:

Disable Contact Syncing in SETTINGS -> ACCOUNTS & SYNC -> [your google account] -> uncheck contacts box.

Go to SETTINGS -> APPLICATIONS -> MANAGE APPLICATIONS -> ALL -> CONTACT STORAGE -> CLEAR DATA

Plug your phone to your computer and enable USB debugging

ON YOUR COMPUTER

Download FroydVillan Rom 1.6 for hero.

Extract the rom ZIP file and search for the "libsqlite.so" file in "SYSTEM/LIB/" folder.

Copy the file into the tools folder of the Android SDK (i'm assuming you have the SDK in your computer).

Open a command line

Navigate to the sdk's tool folder

Run the following ADB comands:

> ADB remount (*** TO REMOUNT THE SYSTEM FOLDER ***)

> ADB pull /system/lib/libsqlite.so libsqlite_bak.so (*** TO BACK UP YOUR FILE JUST IN CASE ***)

> ADB shell rm /system/lib/libsqlite.so (*** TO REMOVE THE OLD libsqlite.so ***)

> ADB push libsqlite.so /system/lib/libsqlite.so (*** TO COPY THE NEW FILE TO THE PHONE ***)

> ADB shell reboot (*** THIS WILL REBOOT YOUR PHONE ***)

Re-enable the contacts sync. Sync again and everything should be working fine!

Voilá!

Please report any problems :-)

when the camera will start working i m waiting for that day this rom is gr8 but only problem with it is camra & bluetooth developers please remove these 2 bugs so that all hero users can use the 2.2 falsh rom
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] boypower:
Thanks Alot, Its worked like a charm :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Malveiro:
Good to hear!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] petemt:
When is the camera gonna work?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bihariel:
dont know for the moment.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] klungxda:
Any update of this ROM by porting official stock of HTC Legend 2.2 (GSM)?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] 87Vortex87:
can we do something with this? : http://forum.vodafone.co.uk/t5/Latest-Vodafone-News/Android-2-2-1-for-HTC-Magic/td-p/630265
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sergiopa:
Please my friend, keep working on it.

I´m waiting for you to fix the camera issue!!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] wormstein:
hey guys, any update on a camera fix?

this looks the best 2.2 with sense by far. if you'll fix the camera it will rock!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] adicken:
I second that. This is an excellent ROM but I need a camera. Please keep working no it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] PMGRANDS:
Is This A GSM Only ROM? Sorry If Its Posted, But Had To Ask What Would Happen If A Cdma HERO Flashed A GSM Rom? I Know Your Not Supposed To, But Why? What Would Happen?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arcblade851:
CDMA Heroes should never flash a GSM Hero ROM because of the different hardware of the two. I'm not too sure of the specifics, but it would render your phone useless.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Viper780:
its the only Sense Rom for the Hero that anyone is working on - i've tried it, i love it but i need the Cam for QR Codes and Businesscards.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] B-bal:
any updates on this great rom??:D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Dark Emotion:
Is someone working on camera fix? will it ever be fixed?

The Froyo update for the HTC Wildfire is rolling out!

http://forum.vodafone.co.uk/t5/Late...oid-2-2-for-Vodafone-HTC-Wildfire/td-p/634475
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Nice but don't get your hopes up too much. I doubt it will be much different than the leaked wildfire 2.2, which btw, I now know that it is the sources for the files which fix the hardware that does work on Sense 2.2 ROMs. All Sense 2.2 ROMs for the hero as well as similar devices all already use these files....

Still let me know if you see a downloadable update file or a zip ROM or something we can get the ROMs files out of.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stormingsoul:
Rom is great and all i wanted!

only the camery makes me so sad! :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] frijjy:
I know about the camera which is passable, but what about bluetooth audio, has that been fixed now?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rustynuts34:
Strange mine done it when I flashed the rom and kernel together so wiped and done them with a reboot inbetween and all's good : )
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Arranmc182:
Heads up guys if you download any App from the market and it defaults to saving to SD Card its seems to Download just fine then fails at installing. I tried with both Angry Birds & Raging Thunder 2 and both failed to install but I then downloaded Winamp that defaults to internal memory and that installed fine.

I have a workaround just eject the SD Card then download the App then put the SD Card back in. Also have tested moving the App to the SD Card after but that just fails.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] perdita2000:
Flash lite of course?¿?¿?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Arranmc182:
That's fantastic news can't wait for a port
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
I know I'm late to the table, but yes, thank you for saying this.

Amazing stuff... the guy at cdma forum zenulator built a rom claiming it has flash 10.1 working? because he added the 10.1 flash file to a rom that ALREADY had a semi-working flash light player in it? And the "developer" zenulator thought he had done something useful?

LoL

as for the person porting it to GSM - fair enough, he never claimed to have a lot of knowledge and is only porting what he was told is a rom with working 10.1.

He didn't know that a compiled binary executable for a certain processor can't magically (or at all) run on a processor that doesn't have the required features (such as in our heros).

But the guy at cdma who built this rom should have known, or someone should have told him before this waste of time started.

sorry guys but please understand. there can never be flash 10.x other than flash "lite" for the hero. unless htc themselves release it for the hero (which is less than merely unlikely since the hero's been discontinued).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
intelligent post. haven't tried it yet myself (and won't probably) but the point you and others make is valid - flash won't work, but who cares. more ports that are different never hurt anyone - maybe a better base for the gsm hero version of the future for those who care.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
two thoughts : it's froyo on the hero, so yea, downloads will be loads of fun until a real dev gets on this project.

and the other thought is.... wow, winamp for android? didn't know it had been built for android. is it any good?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] okdac:
Winamp

It is. Really nice to see that player on our favorite Android phones. Works fine, at least for me (using Floyo 1.1.9)

Okdac:)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] skedone:
winamp is good but its no poweramp
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] davrave:
I found on Floyo 1.1.9 that after install of winamp, USB notification on the 'phone is absent when connecting to my p.c.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Not sure how this thread is connected to Floyo, but winamp works fine for me on Floyo. I am not sure what you mean "notification on the 'phone is absent when connecting to my p.c.". Everything is fine for me.

One thing that I do find weird, is that winamp default to automounting the SD card to the PC which I don't like. I disabled it through the winamp options. Is this what you mean?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
Sounds like it and if I may say so that's a great move as a ROM dev, since we see a -ton- of issues over on the vr forums with people complaining about their phone automounting and it is all the result of winamp or other music players that do the same thing.

I reported this thread once for claiming that Flash 10.1 works on the Hero, when it doesn't. Now more reputable ROMs are being dragged in.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Arranmc182:
Winamp for Android is super slick its worth a try and if you use Winamp on Windows then then you can WiFi sync Music
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Fysi:
Winamp UI is the best on any Android music player, but PowerAMP just has the features (PowerAMP being the only music player that almost nearly does gapless playback seamlessly).

I wonder how hard it would to transplant the WinAmp UI over onto PowerAMP? Hmmm

Anyway, looking forward to see whether the Devs use this as a base for their 2.2 ROMs or they mix and match with the new Legend 2.2 ROM.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
cool, I do like poweramp :-)

although I'm still loving Mort more than anything. best widgets around.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] k0zmic:
Similar problem, as soon as I slide down the lock screen the com.settings.android (or something) force closes then the screen goes and stays black with just the notification bar remaining. I've done a full wipe twice so I can't figure it out. I'm on T-Mobile UK if that makes any difference.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Fourth Horseman:
Have you wiped the dalvik-cache as well?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] k0zmic:
Yep I've tried that too.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
Outdated post
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] galvinlurv:
fo those having issues flashing this rom, the solution is simple. all you have do is remove your simcard and flash the rom. and after that, return the simcard and reboot. thanks me later.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Snotmann:
Get someone Pocket Legends working with this Rom ... or another Rom für HTC Hero ??
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] medo159:
Unfortunately I couldn't get this rom working, I (as many others obviously) got stuck on Force close before setting up the phone.

Tried already every solution here for bypassing that problem but nothing work, removing sd card method, flash different rom before flashing this one, all followed by a full wipe, but still doesn't work :(

hope the next update will fix this problem, good luck dev :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] galvinlurv:
you should try removing your simcard before flashing this rem, it worked for me
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] galvinlurv:
please i flashed the gingerbread keyboard, but it force closes, and also any fix for the camera yet cos i lovethis rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sharky2xyz:
anyone else had battery problems with <<< Froyo Sense Extended v1.4 mixed >>> ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] fusioncoast:
even i tried this rom this is better than FROYO_2.2.1_Final_Android_Stock and the Elelinux_Special_Edition_2.2.1_Final both only problem is the camera hope we get a fix soon
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tedloukes:
camera fixes?

Hi, Just flashed my Hero with great success. Thanks. Any news on camera fixes?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] omaghe:
I am running this rom for a couple of weeks now and I am realy enjoying it. :D

Such a great rom, except for the camera.

Is somebody working on this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] BisHouse:
Quote everything.

Please fix the camera because is very graet rom :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Legacyleader:
The addons are down pls reupload! or Mirrors were nice...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] PMGRANDS:
YEAH, KIND OF FIGURED THAT!!

LOL....

I Kind A Thought I'd Run Into Trouble....

But It Seems Curiosity Almost Always Seems To Kill The Cat!!!

Found Out The Hard Way!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bihariel:
Discontinued for now, we have no fix for camera and i have no more this phone so i can not do any teting so if someone want to continue the work, tell me and i will give you the php code to create a new thread with the new dev. sorry
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Viper780:
Bad to here it.

Your Rom was one of the promising one. I hope there would be a 2.3 or 3.0 Port with Sense for the Hero but i guess there isn't enough RAM on the Hero :(

Sad to see that the others also Stop working on 2.2 with Sense
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bgcngm:
Do you guys know if this file should works in every ROM? I have Android 2.2.1 with the match contacts ID problem and tried to push the "patched" libsqlite.so to my phone, but it didn't worked... phone crashes at boot. Is there any way to patch my libsqlite.so?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Jurellz:
Wishing This Would Come Back ALIVE :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Picarden:
This rom made it possible for me to sync against Exchange 2010 SP1 again! Thank you!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
GPS Improvement?!

I would appreciate testing of this initial work on a fix for the dislike this ROM has for the hero GPS.

I am able to get a GPS fix with this update.

GPS Status dies after about half a minute (at least for me), BUT this seems to be a problem with GPS status compatibility with this ROM and not with the fix itself (RAM problem?!):

E/dalvikvm-gc( 727): Could not create 1183744-byte ashmem mark stack: Too many open files
E/dalvikvm-heap( 727): dvmHeapBeginMarkStep failed; aborting
E/dalvikvm( 727): VM aborting
D/GpsLocationProvider( 111): GPS status listener died
D/GpsLocationProvider( 111): GPS status listener died
I/ActivityManager( 111): Process com.eclipsim.gpsstatus2 (pid 727) has died.

With iGO I don't have time problem.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Koneko_cz:
System

Thank goodness it's Rom but sometimes crash and eats so much ram. It is good that someone is doing port Sense 2.2 thank ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robtue:
I have maintained GPS fix for about 10 minutes now. I am using iGo and GPS Test. This is great news. Well done Erasmux!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] petewxm:
Is this Rom for the gsm version? Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tomekk_nt:
Yes, it is.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mdon874:
buzzing that erasmux is on the case :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bihariel:
thanks genius. i will add it on the first post.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Koneko_cz:
JIT

Does go JIT? Or it must somehow turn? In Linpakc i have 2.7 MFL, but when I have the villain rom there was 4.5 MFL :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] minty1978:
is there any chance of an apps2sd add on for this erasmux?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] cyberon:
Erasmux rules!

You are the best hero developer ever. ;)

Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
I am pretty sure this should work:

bihariel, any chance you can verify the above indeed works on this ROM, and if so add it to the main post as well. Or do you have different proven app2sd method for this ROM?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] skedone:
only the cam to go, i must brush up on my c and java and get involved in dev work more
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] skedone:
forgot to say im just charging phone will test the rom/gps/ap2sd when it hits about 60% what about other gps aps tho like google maps problem still there
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JonasBom:
Daily use?

If we forget camera and apps2sd, is this rom ready for daily use? Is it faster than HTC 2.1?

Jonas
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
what about the original poster's comment that this rom can be a little slow at times?

what are people's experiences as far as UI responsiveness, lags, lockscreen unlocking lag, lockscreen UI responsiveness, memory use (odd apps FCing in background once in a while)...etc

I'm not saying these things happen in this rom (don't nkow personally), I'm asking if these things are happening for people who are using this rom? I'm going to be flashing it again shortly now there's a gps fix (you are brilliant erasmux!! great work on that!)

I'm just trying to focus the discussion on helpful feedback like how this really is as a daily rom compared to vanilla froyo roms.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] minty1978:
cheers erasmux, doing a NAND now to give it a whirl :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] djdavis:
I have tested the patches, the GPS patch works, the A2SD one doesnt..BUT

darktremor's apps2sd patch works!!

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=790825&highlight=darktremor

at least i think it is: before it was saying low disk space, about 5 mb free, and after flashing the patch, it no longer says this, and the free space has risen now to 45mb!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] skedone:
which version of the ap2sd did you use mate
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
either a virus is eating your apps or it's working ;-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] djdavis:
lol nah definately not a virus

I'm using this one http://www.darktremor.info/files/a2sd/dtapps2sd-2.7.5.2-signed.zip
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] crilin80:
Well, what don't work at this point? Just the camera?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JonasBom:
Damn... i cant flash this rom :( The Bootscreen repeats a million times... damn... does anyone know this problem? Could it be the kernel? Any ideas?

Jonas
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] minty1978:
did you full wipe? Davlik too?

I was getting an FC when it booted, just been through and flashed the rom, boot, flash the GPS patch, boot, flash the DarkTremor Script, boot.

Havent tried redoing the kernel...just in case!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JonasBom:
Yes i did... Mhm
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] minty1978:
try installing each patch separatly, after a boot.

I have just flashed the kernel last, and all is good now!

Apps2sd working also :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lesaqq:
Buttons light and bluetooth don't work too((
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
to save a boot, I flashed rom then gps fix before first boot. works perfectly. apps2sd may take a reboot then flash then boot, I'm not overly concerned about it right now though, although it's cool that it works.

rom's pretty laggy right now and lockscreen's unlock drag is twitchy as is the notification bar dragdown. Very much as though there's a BFS kernel runnin gin this this.

So I'm gonna flash 11c kernel on here and see what happens.... :-) I fully expect it to break since I don't know which version of the kernel to flash. I'll just do cm6 version I guess for now.

assuming this speeds up the laggy ui stuff somewhat then I have the following list of nice-to-haves which some clever person can hopefully implement sometime:

- extended reboot menu (just has sense shutdown type menu now)

- default apn list would be nice (at least mine wasn't in this one)

- a default file manager would be cool - it's a pain having to go through whole google setup and market crap just to get a tiny app that could be included anyhow.

As you can see we're down to the nitpicking stage here! which is great news I think!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
Thanks for the testing, it seems the tenfar kernel does not run the init.d scripts?!

I would appreciate it if someone can help me test the following kernel:

flykernel-11c-FroyoSense-614-352

First I want to know if this kernel works ok with ROM (does it boot?). This kernel will boot @ 614/352 and has the same optimizations as the CM optimized kernels on my FlyKernel thread (see there for details).

Second, using the above kernel (assuming it works), does the my CM6 app2sd patch work? If not, the result of a "adb shell mount" command and if possible the logcat from the beginning of the boot, will be very helpful.

I am sorry, I'm lazying out to flash the ROM on my internal memory to test this (I am currently dual-booting to it and the entire ROM sits only on the SD...). But I do intend to support this, if there is interest in it.

In the meantime, if the above update breaks something, you can use this update to restore the original kernel that comes with this ROM:

TenfarKernelRestore
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
ok.... flykernel11c CM version 3xx-691 = fail (bootloop)

will try general version next after I wipe settings and dalvik to ensure nothing's screwed up.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
The CM ramdisk (ALL flykernel-11c-CM-XXX files) will not work for this ROM. The generic update will work, because it does not change the ramdisk, but hence does not have the optimized parameters, and apparently does not run init.d scripts (see my above post).

Maybe you can be my ginee pig and test the above kernel version?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
definitely!

so that's the one linked from the first post of this rom's thread?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
weird, in recovery I just tried connecting to usb and it gave me a phone error message and said to do it through adb. never had that before.

so now I have to boot into un-kernel-fied rom and get it going before I can connect via usb.

I don't feel like screwing with adb right now
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] skedone:
the kernel linked in first post works fine thats what i used just wiped everything and flash rom kernel gps fix and rebooted, install setup then OC cpu and its running lovely not tested the gps fully but it seems to working
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
No, I mean this: (post #89)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
thanks man, missed that along the way. copying it to my phone right now.

booting up... hang in there
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
That has nothing to do with adb, it just failed to unmount the sdcard, hence it could not connect it and told you to try through adb to see the error message.

From my experience, this somethings happens, you just try again and it should work.

The kernel on the first post is my generic update, which works but only because it does not change the ramdisk.

I will not spam with a another quote of my post #89, but would appriciate it, if someone who has the ROM flashed would test that version.

Thanks.
