My Gmaps installed fine this morning, I flashed the "old fingerprints" option right after I flashed this ROM.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] elelinux:
Have built the first test of custom-v2 now, no revolutionary differences purely graphic or anything else, a little bit more stock look over the whole rom now, will try one more compilation and change little more stuff and if everything works as intended it will be a release later this evening. :rolleyes:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
Nice. Looking forward for it :D

issues with gmail client in market

First of all thanks a whole lot for the wonderful Elelinux port! I'm using it quite a while now without any major issues.

Only the latest custom and customv2 brought up a major issue with downloading the gmail client. I cannot see it in the market not even after flahing the fingerprint.

Does anyone have an idea of what i did wrong?

Thanks and Regards,

Xian
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] saj222:
Thanks for the Custom-V2 Elelinux! I am excited to try it out.

SMS application bug (Version 3.6 full)

The SMS app for some reason keeps freezing and eventually crashing/rebooting the phone... Is anybody else running 3.6 experiencing this?

I'm hoping it's just the .apk... Could you please add an option for the previous SMS app?

Many thanks,
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
I saw something in the change log that I LOVE. so if it actually works :D THANKS, don't know it yet. will know tomorow.. XD
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
Running this now.the V2 one, and again same as the V1 noticed the white notifications on a white notification item in the pulldown. so you do not see the icons :P

I ripped the icons from a sense rom and pushed them in. and changed the background from the pulldown to normal white :D so it fits better for my needs :P

The rom feels nice :D Thanks ele :D

And I made the setting widget match the music widget, looks better then when placed on the same screen :P If anyone wants that stuff, give a yell.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nu_skool:
Can anyone test if they are getting a FC whhen going to settings -> display.

I didn't try it before I replaced ADW with Launcher2 so I don't know if it's related. Also, Ele, Launcher2 doesn't have the nice "skin" from the previous ROMs. Just thought I'd mention it.

Once again thanks for the effort you've put into these ROMs...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Stempfr:
No problems here.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nu_skool:
Damn, thought that might be the case. I think I'm gonna have to do a fresh install.

Thanks for checking.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
Ok I tested AVCPR or what ever the line is XD and it does not work on a Sony Xploid thingy XD

Anyone else got it to work on another Radio?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bochdi:
Ele, many thanks for ur great rom!

But i have a problem here with usb tethering on my windows laptop.. When i tick the option, always back to unticked.. Does anyone have the same probs too? Or what should i do to fix this? Thanks..

Note: I did full wipe before flashing this Rom (custom v2)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] elelinux:
Well writing this post now in usb-tethering mode, using ubuntu no problems
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bochdi:
Yes i've been trying it too with ubuntu, and its working..

But with windows didnt work, the checkboxes always back unticked.. :(

Is there anyone here still using windows? Please checks that..

Thanks for ur reply, ele..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] elelinux:
You probably missing some usb driver for windows, check here http://developer.android.com/sdk/oem-usb.html for usb drivers
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] socratesig:
Working fine here: writing this post now in usb-tethering mode, using Windows 7
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bochdi:
Strange.. Mine still not working..

But when i'm using other rom (i.e Deck goku), the usb tether working fine.. So confusing..

Actually i can use wireless tether to connecting my windows, just curious with this problem..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thanksgiving60:
this has been great

thanks for the effort
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ChosSimbaOne:

Thanks for your great ROM Elelinux, Do you plan to update this ROM? because there are CM nightly available everyday.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] elelinux:
No, my plan is start to work with ICS now, the source have been released today :D

I wish you good luck in on the new project. I can't wait to see the first Android ICS build for the HERO...:D

Froyo vs Gingerbread

Hi, i use Ele's froyo rom 6.2 v5. It is stable and also smooth but sometimes the apps are laggy at the start.

The last gingerbread rom, that i have tested, was v3.5. It feels fast, but i had memory problems with the launcher and e.g. the GenieWidget (dosn't keep in memory). Are the memory problems solved now in 3.6? Would you recommend to switch? Thanks for your opinion!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] darkmansd:
hey ele,

i just wanted to ask, if you think that ics on hero could actually work better(=>smoother) on the hero than gingerbread does

especially because of the gpu hardware acceleration (as far as i know the hero has an adreno 130 - capabale of opengl es1.1)

so i wondered if it even is possible to use the gpu for the ui with ogl es 1.1

any clues?

and thank you for your great work!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Habarug:
THIS

made my day :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] SummonerOfDeath:
AFAIK, the hero has no GPU, thats why its so difficult getting newer roms to run on our small 529MHz cpu.. so bad luck for you here :(

greets, S.o.D.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Atenaa:
And I'll be the first to try it...:p

Thank you so much for your work Ele!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Habarug:
You first? Lol. I have flashed it before you have booted into recovery :-P

sent with love from me to you
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] darkmansd:
the reason that many people think that the hero has no gpu is, that it 'only' utilizes opengl es 1.1 (>90% of the android devices use opengl es 2.0)

in fact it has the adreno 130: developer.qualcomm.com/discover/chipsets-and-modems/adreno
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Habarug:
Hmm. That was interesting. Everyone has always toldme it has no gpu. But I guess repeating a lie doesn't make it true :-)

sent with love from me to you
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
Yes... By all intents and purposes equivalent to having no gpu.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ExMM:
Interesting...I didn't know, thanks for the info.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] darkmansd:
technically thats not true....but i get what your point is...

that is why i had asked elelinux the question if it is possible to deliver hardware acceleration for the ui with opengl es1.1 ;)

(since es 2.0 is mostly about shaders etc.)

for more info: khronos.org/opengles
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vikashhero:
Source code for ICS released!

Wow, can you imagine, ICS on a phone that is almost three years old now?

Running Gingerbread smoothly on the hero is nothing short of a incredible but it works, and it works gooooood.

Call me a skeptic, but I think this is the end of the line for our little pocket friendly phone with the "chin".

I eagerly await the day you prove me wrong :D

Best of luck <3
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
Indeed best of luck to the guys who are going to try it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] serguma:
Do you know anything about PowerAMP (2.0) stopping when the screen turns off?

I've read on the official forums that it is caused because the system kills OpenGL app (which PowerAMP 2.0 is), and that this is the ROM's fault. If the music is played on the brackground there are no issues.

Any ideas?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vikashhero:
Huge WTF

I had just upgraded from 3.5 to 3.6

I had re-downloaded the .ZIP from wuala and put it onto my SD, then flashed it.

Its insanely quick to boot, but what'S more, it remembered my system preferences, my wallpaper and even my Google account, and for some reason, already has XDA premium installed?

Did I just have a stroke? :S

Paranormal activity 4?

Why am I even complaining?

This is seriously so messed up?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ryanraven:
Proximity Sensor problem

Proximity Sensor doesn't work when in phone call.

Any idea to calibrate or..... ??

Thanks

Great rom speedy and very stable for me :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ordellz:
Hi

Block at boot time :

I have a problem with my phone. It blocks at boot time. I described the problem here but i couldn't post in this thread because i didn't have the right to then.

Handcent, SMS :

I have another problem, with handcent (or sms in general?), described here. I think that problem appeared under elelinux (v3.1 then v3.6 light), but i admit i'm not sure whether it didn't appear already before, when i was using CM 7.1.

Thanks

And thank you so much ele for your ROM!!!!!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lutchezar:
Use Screen Tools 2 instead of Proximity Sensor - both are for different android versions:-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
for the guy who had paranormal activity making his 3.6 flash work without reconfiguring, did you WIPE DATA or WIPE SYSTEM or WIPE ALL type of thing from your recovery before you flashed 3.6?

if not then yea, it just pushes the files over top of what was there. if it works, great. sometimes it will result in lots of errors if you don't wipe.

glad to hear it works for you.

and to the guy about the proximity sensor - you know that there is no proximity sensor in the hero hardware, right? that's why our screens stay on during calls, or why they turn off after a couple of seconds during calls (depending on rom's configuration), but it typically has nothing to do with the phone being anywhere near your face... you can only fake one using the light sensor and/or gravity sensor using a third party app (a previous poster mentioned 2 of them).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vikashhero:
@ dkelley

Wiped data, wiped cache, wiped (+ formatted) ext partition in CWM Recovery.

So weird, right? But everything is snappy, and what not. It is, however, the first time I've had to handle the ext partition, I've never used apps2SD before, maybe I did that wrong?

Edit: Speaking of paranormal activity, as soon as I sent this, my phone just autonomously rebooted. Scared the **** out of me.

Maaaaaaybe I should fix that...

Faster than 6.2.0 ?

Is this rom any quicker than the 6.2.0 ( Elelinux-6.2.0-Hero-Speedmachine-v5-Reloaded )

don't really want to install this and slow my phone down because Elelinux-6.2.0-Hero-Speedmachine-v5-Reloaded is really quick for me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Habarug:
Vanilla Eclair is faster than anything else :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] davrave:
+1 fully agree after trying most of these roms, VE6 still whips the Lamas' ass!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ryanraven:
GingerBread ?

what about the fastest gingerbread rom ?

I know CM7 nightly is slowwwww
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Habarug:
Fastest GB rom is Decked for life. But it's not as fast as VE ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ryanraven:
Im using Decked for life :D

Might try VE6
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Gone2Plaid:
I had tried this back when it was still on 3.1 or 3.2. I quickly returned to the stability and performance of SpeedMachine. I kept an eye on Ele's GB development to see how much refinement he might have up his sleeves. When I saw all the positive comments on 3.6, and especially the Custom build, I decided to give it a try. It has been an excellent choice. After 2 weeks, 3.6 Custom is still running beautifully, and I believe battery life is even better than SpeedMachine. Only tweak I recommend is switching the governor to SmartassV2 - it seems to improve touch screen responsiveness. As for speed, I believe it is comparable to 6.2.0 v5, but I wouldn't say that it's faster for me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] iHero96:
CG 2.4.0 is the fastest i never tried
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ZyberXDA:
I use the custum V2 with ADWlauncher now and am very satisfied about it!

So far the best rom I have had on my HTC hero!

As an app tip I can say that I like the amazingly good predictions of the Swiftx keyboard I used the trail for a month and am sold to it!

Aside from that-

Is it possible to create a flashable .zip for the very first android market?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Pitel:
No sound after long usage

After having a phone up for a long time (like, no reboots for about a week, does not mean using it all the time), the sound stops working, and by stop, I mean completly. Not in phone calls, no "ding" sound when changing volume, no alarms, no notifications, when I try to play some music, the player just skips from one song to another, because it can't play it, etc.

Changing volume, changing sound profiles, soft ROM reboot (the one withou htc logo on start) does not help. Only way to make it play again is to reboot the phone properly.

Unfortuantely, I don't have any logcat from the moment it happens. And I gues I can't provide them, because I usualy notice it after a long while (I don't make a lot of phone calls, neither listen to music on my phone).

Am I the only one having this issue?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lirasina:
Those scripts will barely have any impact on the hero. mostly cuss of its limited ram.

And the old market. well I think not. cuss that one never ran on GB so I do not think it has GB support but there is a market zip on the first post for the older market and not the newest. I would suggest you use that.

---------- Post added at 03:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:52 PM ----------

I do not even get it a week to run.. XD but if a reboot fixes it I think the problem is not that big.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Siauka:
Have a little problem, when I'm not turning on Data access for longer time, then it's not turning on at all, in menu it shows that its checked to be turned on but in real it not working, icon do not appear in top bar.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vikashhero:
Got my SGS2 today.

Thank you so much for your hard work, Ele.

The only reason I refuse to sell my Hero is because you made it so useable and so good and at the moment, my Hero is running a newer version of android than my SGS2!

Kudos to you, and many thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marchard:
Yeah, this happens to me quite often. A couple of times i noticed that it rang only one time out of the speaker when i get a call - that the moment, when the hero starts to be quiet. Only a restart helps. Couldn't figure out yet what circumstances causes this...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ryanraven:
But the SDK is outdated in VE6 so most apps wont install from the market.

Battery drain questions

Guys,

I just want to ask how is your battery drain with this version (I'm using Version Elelinux-7.1-Hero-Custom-v2). I think I'm noticing a faster battery drain (or maybe I'm imagining things, so I'm asking you :p ). The governor and the max/min CPU configurations have any influence on this issue?

I have smartass2 and 264/614 MHz.

I discovered that if I turn off completely my phone over night, in the next day when I turn it on, it drained more battery than when I leave it in air-plane mode..

2 problems with this ROM......maybe somebody else posted this before,dunno

1. sometimes when recieving a call(or dialing) speakerphone turns on by itself..

2. I have to change wireless name every 2-3 days cuz phone suddenly won't find network anymore.... :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] notea:
I had this issue, found i could manually re-add the network and it would connect, then i would delete the old entry. it's a bit easier than changing your SSID every time. no idea what the problem could be, maybe kernel?

i switched back to and older rom now as these little issues every now and then got to me =( despite it being a lovely rom 99.9% of the time.

Have flashed the new LV 1.0 RC2 and pushed the overclocking to 264/691 (previously 264/672).

What is the best radio for our hero?

What is the best Cpu Frequency?

Thanks everyone in advance!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vikashhero:
I updated my radio ages ago, the first time I flashed CM6.1, so I cant help you there...

Try SmartassV2 245/710.

Also consider the launcher you use, I find ADW is too slow for the Hero, but LauncherPro, Zeam and GoLauncherEX are really smooth.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jonathanljs:
ADW is standard in the custom v2 version of this ROM, and works very smoothly, especially if you lock it in memory (do this EITHER in ADW settings OR CM settings, if you do it in both it seems to cancel out!)

it is weird.. but it is not in the market and not in http://android.a0soft.com/?url=aNetShare.htm

Hello, I've a graphic problem with the google Maps 6.01. I tried unistalling it and reinstalling but didn't solve it.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vikashhero:
Ah, That reminds me, I need to try out custom V2, thanks!

I'm using ADW Launcher EX and it's fast and smooth for me, faster than Launcher Pro.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Habarug:
Well, I've got to say I find LauncherPro and Zeam waaay faster than Go Launcher. I love Go launcher, it's possibilities, themes, widgets and options, but it lags, especially when opening app drawer :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jonathanljs:
Always a pleasure. Try flashing the LV1.0RC2 kernel as well - seems a nice alternative.
