Thanks for the heads up on Agile Lock Screen. Its good but I do notice a few problems. I keep getting double lock screens when I have it on. The same developer has another lockscreen called "Ripple Lock Free" based on Honeycomb lockscreen. This one has a settings feature to fix the double lockscreen problem, but it doesn't seem to work with this rom.

Also, I notice these both lockscreen apps take a while to load after a reboot, and sometimes hang.

Would be awesome if Elelinux can build something native built into this rom itself. :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Habarug:
The reason it hangs it that it gets killed due to low memory. As I'm using a Froyo rom i hardly ever experience this :P There was this one time I had double lockcreen but if I restarted agile lock I fixed it :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JieeHD:
Go into CM Settings > Tablet Tweaks and then check disable lock screen. No more double lock.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jonathanljs:
Sadly no-one else seems to have this problem! Just the two of us, then. I tried a wipe cache/dalvik cache reflash, this left it the same. I probably should do a complete wipe/reset and reflash, but right now I don't have the time to do this and reinstall everything. If you get a chance to do so, try it and let me know if it solves the problem...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] CrazyDelta:
Thanks. I think it has sorted the double lock problem. Will test it out more over the next day or 2. Cheers.

P.S. Why is that option hidden under Tablet Tweaks? It ought to be under Lockscreen Settings. However, I'm just glad its available.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marleyfan61:
I also had the double lock screen. Now my phone is SUPER safe.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] VandaL^:
You can edit non-sense rom to look like sense.Launcherpro can edit dock and also there is launcherpro clock widget which is the same as htc clock.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nu_skool:
I installed from scratch and I can confirm that I am experiencing this issue as well.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jalize:
I did the following from V2.3.5:

1) Wipe the cache

2) Wipe the Dalvick Cache

3) Re-installed V2.3.5

and I can confirm that I still do have the problem.:mad:

Other than this, everything is running smoothly (using old Maket);)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] CrazyDelta:
After some testing, I have noticed that Gtalk works fine on a clean install of Elelinux Light version - while having almost no other new apps installed from market nor any widgets running.

I have about 98MB Ram free and the Running Service (Cached Process) called Talk does not get killed.

Once the Ram goes down to say around 40MB free, Talk continuously gets killed off while other apps remain to run alright, like Whatsapp, skype, etc.

Can anyone else confirm this?

Would very much like Talk not to get killed so easily.

Edit Post Update: After turning on the browser, BAM!- it immediately kills of Talk in the cached process as well as various other processes that were running. Even tho there was still plenty of ram to be used. I noticed that the browser was taking up 22MB of ram.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ciprilik:
My phone and battery are 2 years old and I can see that the battery performance is not what it used to be when I bought the phone.

You will

never

get allot of hours, days, weeks or whatever

on any Rom

you could think of with normal to heavy usage if :

1. Your battery is very old (2 years) because they weren't build to last forever and their lifetime is reduced drastically if you are charging your phone every single day.

2. The apps you are using consume allot of memory and/or they use gps, wifi or network data.

The battery has a Talk time of up to 8 h on 2G

if

it's new.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kenleong:
Ya. Mine is 2 yrs old as well. I'm still considering whether I should get a new battery ...

Smart phones no matter what model, as long as you are running full time on data plan, you need to charge it everyday. Our battery technology is still far behind. Hah
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jonathanljs:
The unresponsive check-box saga continues. Given that it's several of us, and neither installing from scratch nor an update install cures this issue, I think we have ourselves a genuine bug, which lies either in 2.3.5 itself or this ROM in particular. Let's hope someone manages to fix it!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nu_skool:
A fair few pages back I was complaining about poor battery life (~10 hours) and Elelinux suggested it would be the battery. I purchased a genuine replacement for around £10 and it's vastly improved. I would recommend it if you can get one cheap.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dithemis:
mine dont have greek keyboard.any solution?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jonathanljs:
Unresponsive check-boxes issue solved! It's an issue with the Elelinux Elegance theme. Change to the System theme - or maybe another - and we're all good again.

This solution was brought to me by member maveq, to whom many thanks!

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marleyfan61:
Just noticed that my screen rotation isn't working. I have checked both 0 and 90 deg in CM Settings and have checked Auto rotate in Screen settings. Is there something I'm missing? Anyone else have this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] CrazyDelta:
After further investigation, I have discovered the reason that Gtalk gets killed so easily is because of its OOM (out of memory) Value. It is not prioritized to remain turned on. The moment some app that requires more RAM is turned on, Gtalk gets killed.

After installing a few apps to a clean install of Elelinux 3.1 Light, Gtalk is in constantly on and off depending on any other apps being used like gmail, twitter, whatsapp, etc.

Of course this has all to do with Hero's very limited on board RAM.

I have used Autokiller to manually change the OOM VALUE of Gtalk, however this is not permanent. And since Autokiller itself uses a lot of RAM, the moment it gets killed, the OOM VALUE of Gtalk reverts back to what its original value is.

For more details on OOM Value - http://andrs.w3pla.net/autokiller/details

Apologize for hijacking this thread - I'm an avid Gtalk user and love the new Elilinux Light Rom - I just want to be able to use it without the pain of having it murderously killed and resurrected all day long and having all my messages missed or delayed.

If anyone has any radical ideas to solve this issue on Hero - I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

Great ROM as always !! :)

But i think that the keyboard has fewer input languages available? I have used this ROM since v 2.4 or 2.5 and there has been a Bulgarian language for the default keyboard. Now there is not!!

Is it repairable or I just have to install custom app from the market?

Hmm, I thought the latest version of CM7 added the ability to have a different lock screen wallpaper... can anyone point me as to where I set it? Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] SpPes:
CM settings?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nu_skool:
Can't see the option?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jonathanljs:
CM Settings / Lockscreen / Style options / Choose background

You might have to scroll down in the final window to find it. The lockscreen image doesn't always stick - depends what's your picture viewer / gallery app. Just fiddle around with it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jalize:
Thanks guys, It works:D The unresponsive check-boxes is now working with the other themes.

The "Top paid" "Top free" and "Just in" buttons in the the old market is also screwed-up by the Elegance theme.

@ Elelinux: Elelinux Elegance theme of must be corected for the unresponsive check-boxes. Thanks Ele;)

Hey, guys! :) Decided to give this rom a chance again, mostly because of transparent stauts bar :P I have one question, though. Is it possible to keep the phone from bluring the lockscreen wallpaper? Check the attached screenshot and you'll see what I mean. If I use Agile lock instead it doesn't blur and it looks way better. Thanks in advance :)

Well guy's, I have vacation now, and my wife has forbidden me to work with android :), have read about the issues with HTC.Elegance will fix it to next release. Keyboard dictionaries issues is a bugg in 2.3.5 waiting for a fix.

As soon as it becomes some kind of fix for the keyboard dictionaries so I upload a patch or update of the rom.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Capitan Trueno:
Hello,

this issue has been posted a few post ago. You only need to reboot your hero once the ROM has started, and buttons will work.

Regards!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] CrazyDelta:
Is there any way to go back to an older Gtalk version? Perhaps an .apk file?

This 1.3 version feels a little laggy, and plus it gets killed a lot. Perhaps an older version without the "video chat" functionality would be lighter on resources and work better with Hero?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marleyfan61:
Yeah it was checked. I did manage to solve the problem. I had flashed LV kernel and I tried reflashing the rom and now my rotation is back. So maybe LV doesn't play completely well with this rom. Thanks for your help tho.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mikarbach:
Hi,

I am using Elelinux-7.1.0-RC1-Hero-v3.1-Light and it works realy good. But I have one problem which still remains, that are more or less often serious lags in LauncherPro. Does anybody have this problem and have solved or minimized it? My free memory is around 135MB. I have tried also different vm-sizes and stick to 32MB so far, with no big differences to 48 or 64. I have disabled all kinds of animations and similar stuff. I am using ondemand with 176/652.

I will not change my launcher.

Michael
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] puppyko:
I used to have unexplained lag from time to time using Launcher Pro even after I tried changed ROMs, it would surfaced again eventually.

I had since removed some apps, example Fancy Weather Widget. Now I hardly come across any lag and usually using just the default setting that came with the ROM.

You may wish to check any of your apps which constantly trying to connect to internet (even if you have not enable data). Also, when google happen to sync, you may experience lag during that period.

Good luck.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] AryanFL:
why many keayborad like arabic/persian(فارسی) remove in this version?please add to next version...thanks ele and goodluck
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mikarbach:
Yes, I have also fw, but I do only update every 4 hours when connected to wifi. Other networks things are only gmail with push, and gtalk sometimes, but not always. I also have those legs when I do not have any network connections at all. For comparison I have recently tried elelinux-6.2-v4 and there I don not have observed a single lag. And the free RAM was 145MB compared to the 135MB in 7.1. Unfortunately in e-6.2 I do not have custom LED-notification, and all apps in the market do not work properly.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jonathanljs:
Some lags are probably inevitable, given that we're trying to make the Hero do more than it's designed for. I've found that some launcher lags can be avoided by running the v6 supercharger script http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=991276 which locks the launcher in memory more effectively than the standard CM settings lock does. But the only way really to get the phone running completely smoothly and rapidly is to downgrade to a good Froyo, keep the apps few and light, and only use 3-5max home screens.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mikarbach:
I have already tried this script and actually it has improved a bit. With the original settings I only observe very few apps with system-monitor running. After applying the script those numbers have increased a bit. But in e-6.2-v4 there are more running apps observable with system-monitor.

I do really not think that it is a real RAM problem. I have 145MB in e-6.2-v4 and 135MB in e-7.1-3.1. And actually you can observe the lags when 45MB is available for the system. So probably no need to kill an app. May be the reason for the lags is LP-related, because LP is based initially on 2.1/2.

[update] Only for clarification, with lag I do mean a real freeze for 3-10 seconds and always accompanied by a appearance of a message window that the system is waiting for LP ...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jonathanljs:
Possibly LP - I use the ADW version supplied on page 1 of this forum and only 5 screens (down from 7). Seems to work!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] avishai0528:
Hey all,

I just received HTC Hero (HERO100)(T-Mobile) from my CEO :)

and he asked me to flash to a new ROM...

Since the first page looks like a mess and there is 415 pages in this thread I will have to ask what probably was asked before...

How can I Flash this ROM safely...

Is there a good Instructions somewhere like I had with 'Overcome' (Galaxy Tab)?

Current ROM Shows:

Firmware: 1.5

Baseband: 63.18.55.06Ju_6.35.09.26

Kernel: 2.6.27-mck-teknologist01.91

Build: MoDaCo Custom ROM 3.1 Core

Thanks in advance... :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] puppyko:
I recalled when I used to have those lag, 'manage application' or 'titanium backup' loading all apps would take ages to complete when I checked. If one were to at the same time trying to swipe on the screen, naturally the message on system is waiting for launcher would appear.

You may have to narrow down problem yourself slowly by removing 'apps' that you suspect of hogging the system.

If you look at threads on current phone model with bigger RAM like Arc or Sensation, there are still users that complaint of lag.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mikarbach:
Ok, of course those lags I have too, but those are not disturbing me, because i know the reason and have still to wait until the running process is finished. My LP-lags occur definitely without other user-process running. I do not have so much apps. Normally I use my phone for, gtalk, sms and gmail. And with other Apps except LP I do not have such lags. Often it appears soon after wake up the phone, when no process was running. With cpu spy I can see that my phone is usually abvoe 85% in deep sleep.

In ele-6.2-v4 the phone is running absolutely without any lag, and I have installed some apps more compared to ele-7.1-3.1-light. As I mentioned unfortunately I really need custom-LED-notification, which is the most important hardware feature of my Hero.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] avishai0528:
managed to install it....

but it's very slow :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mrxd:
That is the price we pay for flashing the latest and greatest 2.3.5 on a phone that was only shipped and supported with 2.1. Props to elelinux and everyone else that managed to keep this 2yr old+ phone still going.

Too slow? Install Elelinux-Hero-2.1-update1-Reloaded or VillainRom 13, give it to your wife then buy an SGSII, worked for me :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vrooden:
Great ROM! And to me it "feels" it's running fast and snappy.

I've been using Elelinux 6.2 v4 before, and had massive lags in the end. Now with Elelinux 7.1.0 RC1 I'm _IMPRESSED_ how smooth and snappy everything's running.

And I have the same apps installed (~150, leave alone 5-10 less) on both ROMs, and have nearly the same widgets placed etc.

Anyway: what seems crucial after reboot is running "Advanced Task Manager" and by using "App Info >> Force Close"-method is getting rid of a handfull of apps I don't really need running. After that... everything's fine.

Soooo... THANK AGAIN @Elelinux for creating such an amazing ROM!! Will definately donate soon some bucks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] orrebo:
You can try the Las Venturas 0.5.0 kernel.

For me that have improved the speed :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dmestriner:
last time I tried LV kernel was when elelinux included in in his ROM, and the battery life was terrible on that one. Has it been improved since?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Habarug:
It has improved a lot :) Now it seems better than Flykernel in about everything.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] avishai0528:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jonathanljs:
Try locking home in memory via CM Settings / Performance. If that doesn't work, try using the v6 script (search XDA) which locks the home in memory even better. You can also try ditching LP and going for ADW launcher, which you can find on p1 of this forum.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] luculuc:
Thank for the update ele!

Have you noticed lately something strange when trying to install certain apps or is it just me?

Some apps like Bubbleator, Touchretouch and others are absent from the market even if I change my Sim settings to the USA. And when I make a search through Appbrain and I reach the app on the market from there, there is no button "install"... And when trying to get the app from the web market, it always says the app is incompatible with my HTC Hero. Anyone having the same? Any idea?

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] squeeish:
Because in Google's servers the HTC Hero only has up to Android 2.1, and these apps probably need 2.2 and above so they're not allowing you to install them. I had a similar experience with apps like Viber. Just search on google or xda for a apk of them :p
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] luculuc:
Yeah I thought it could be something like that, but for example touchretouch is officially for Android 2.1 and up so this should be ok for the Hero, and yes 10 days ago I could easily get viber from the market, but now it s no longer possible... So there must be something changed recently out there...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] luculuc:
And I cannot find the last version of touchretouch on xda...
