This rom is getting better and better, but It's stil laggy sometimes, specially the keyboard, sometimes the market doesn't download apps immediately, I have to try a couple of times, but beside that everything is working fine.. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marcero:
Maybe its not the ROM, but the grey beard of the HTC Hero, because it cannot be as fast as newer phones like desire.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] f_padia:
youlu address book allows you to set up contact groups easily. I think it looks nicer than htc dialer too... plus its free! try it and see, I think it will cater for what you are looking for.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ExMM:
yes, that's one reason, but I really feel it more laggy, even compare to the 0.6 or 0.7 version
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Otze:
try to add another calendar

Hello,

I'm really happy with this Rom, thank you to all participating on it!

One issue I found:

I cannot create another calendar with the calendar App. I only have the Google-calendar which is synchronising fine with my Google-account, but I would like to have a second offline-one.

Any suggestions how to add another calendar?

(normally you do it in the calendar app with the dialogue "my calendars")

Cheers, Otze

Also found this version of Eles' rom a bit laggy especially in the morning when I get up and switch on wifi and sync. This happened 1 day after installation. Did all the usual tinkering with speed of CPU etc. ad nauseum. New Cronos 1.5 works better for me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Tom C.:
Another question (guess not only about this ROM, because I have had the same issue with cronos GB):

With GB I am not able to define the size of email attachments which I want to download from my Exchange account! Can anyone confirm that? Or WHERE can I make this settings?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] TA123:
Does anyone use WeatherBug on this ROM? It does not update the location for me quite often and I wonder if it's WB' bug or GB's.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RatTSnake:
I had the same issue with WBp, but location works well on BeatifulWidgets ... so it seems a WB issue ... I think :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ArVanHas:
Yep. I tested GPS several times, in several apps (Maps, Navigate, Copilot end GPS Status). Tried to fix it with the build in aGPS reset in GPS status and with FasterFix.

Also longer than five minutes, and with 7.0.0.7, 7.0.0.8 and 7.0.0.9.

Same problem everytime. Seems GPS receiver is losing it's timetablecalculation, this is an included configuration with every GPS signal the receiver gets. This is because the clock in our smartphones aren't acurate enough to calculate the position on it's own) so that after a few minutes (5 till 20) the positioncalculation doesn't match the fixes anymore. Result lost GPS position. Might have something to do with our processor or memory. Since it's not that quick, maybe with GB the load is to high to calculate quick enough for GPS.

That would mean that 2.3 is havier on the processor than 2.2 since the GPS is very good in 2.2

Don't know if that's the case but could be a reason imho.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] TA123:
Another thing. I have enabled Russian language on the keyboard and there is no dictionary for it. Dictionaries work fine for English and German keyboards though. Is there any way to get the Russian dictionary?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dont know:
Thanks for testing and the explanation.

It's not the hero - in Cronos-GB gps is working.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sniperde:
and it is not a kernel issue, as I experience the same GPS problems with both flykernel AND cronos kernel.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] AdmcPL:
Hello, does this ROM support ext (old school method) app2sd?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] swatsbiz:
Yesitdoes:-D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marcero:
Yes

Edit: damn #2 :-)

thx

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lfvo:
hi Elelinux

tks for your rom, its very nice, but i think i found a bug in the app clock and happend to me 2 times

i run the clock, and set the alarm to 8:45 a.m., and what append, is that is already 9a.m. and when i click on a button in the phone the clock just reload for example from 4:30 a.m. to 9 a.m. and the alarm start ringing
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] treesurf:
Thanks for that tip. I was having the same problem.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Krizp0:
I'm very happy with this ROM, the only thing is a bug in the notification pulldown menu... See the attached picture.

Why is it like this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] keyra74:
it's like this because u didn't even read first message :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Krizp0:
Well, I assumed the "Colours in the notification" was about the cyanogenmod settings, because it isn't the colors that are wrong, but the texture and size of the elements ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] prommindh:
After wiped dalvik cache and re-flashed apps2sd the phone memory has only 5 MB left despite 45 MB before flashed (75 MB for 6.2 rom), FYI

Edit: Sorry, found that app "Myphoneexplorer" created 101 MB of data during re-installation of other apps, now the memory stay at 106 MB _/\_

First of all thanks ele for this fast gb.however, for some reason quadrant stops after reaching 3d benchmark for cronos 0.0.9 and also with this rom. Can someone else confirm this behaviour? My CPU set at 372/748

I think thats why EGL is not working 100%. Cant confirm it'cause i'm on froyo.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] keyra74:
dunno about quadrant but i can confirm tank hero works and use opengl 1.1
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] codnik:
Hey, I had problems with Launcher Pro lagging as well. I'm still on Ele's special froyo final, and yesterday I changed to a different launcher called Zeam. It's much lighter and snappier. Not as many options but it serves me well. Try it out and choose for yourself.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluenova:
Thanks for the ROM ele.

+1 for Phone and Home hardware buttons not working.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] zagielek:
Is there a way to replace the Gallery2D with the Gallery3D in the next release? It would be nice to have it in this rom, just like in CG 0.0.9.

Anyway, thanks for your work Elelinux :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
minus 1 on gallery 3d LoL

keep that fast 2d gallery please but I guess you could do one of your amazing patches to make it replace 2d with 3d for those users who prefer it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] petsasj:
By the way, try out JustPictures! (android market, free). Fiddle a bit with the settings, and you will have the best album app ever.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rustynuts34:
Tried zeam its nice and quick but miss the features of launcher pro : )

Just installed just pictures this is a smart app indeed cheers dude
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] codnik:
Which features do you miss? Maybe try Go Launcher Ex which is free, fairly popular right now and combines features from Launcher Pro and ADW. Here's an article talking about a few launchers, Go Laucher Ex included http://downloadsquad.switched.com/2...n-launcherpro-adw-zeam-go-launcher-quickdesk/

Finally able to give this a flash.. Cronos 0.0.9 for some reason, is pretty much so laggy i can't do a thing with my phone... =/
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] f_padia:
I have experienced this too. It seems that sometimes the phone goes into some deep sleep where the clock stops and so alarm does not ring. Thankfully I haven't missed anything important due to it (yet) but I make sure to set my alarm clock now!

Do you have any idea what might be causing this ele?

Edit: by the way I am using Myclock so I don't know if this is a problem using the default alarm clock. Also it seems a bit inconsistent so I can't figure out when and why it happens
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lfvo:
i'm using the clock from the android system, i just get late to work :D lol
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Maharifu:
Hi, I have a similar issue. But, I'm still using ROM 6.2.0, and I'm using 'Alarm Clock Plus' app. So maybe, this is not a rom specific problem.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lfvo:
but before i have the cm6 and other roms, and never happend this :s
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ExMM:
The alarm is working fine for me, I use it everyday
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hopoffbaby:
Hi,

This is a very nice ROM, and gives me a good linpack score. I also like the wifi tethering.

However I am getting a really, really annoying issue with this ROM.....reception.

When I flash the stock 2.1 ROM, I generally get a "time without signal" of ~15%. With this ROM the percentage jumps to around ~75%!!!!!

Does anyone else see this issue? I am on T-Mobile uk with all the roaming options set so I can roam onto Orange UK.

Regards,

hopoffbaby

EDIT----

I am using the following radio: 63.18.55.06PU_6.35.15.14
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] TA123:
I had the same issue with stock ROMs, both 1.5 and 2.1, before rooting my phone. There is an issue filed in the Google's bug reporting system: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=9974

I have never experienced it since I switched to custom ROMs. I'm a bit worried now.

I can't wait to have battery indicator on the statusbar :)

cheers!

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Flow:
Is it no longer possible to see your battery status in percentages anywhere anymore? In CM6 (Froyo) I could set the option to have the remaining percentage in the taskbar in the battery icon.

Battery status

I can set to show my battery status on my lockscreen, but not in my taskbar. Is it possible?:confused:

Thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] luki59:
try the battery indicator App. It is a little bit bigger, better to see with different colors.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] geoworld123:
Just wait for the next release...if ele compiles it from the latest CM source, it will have the battery percentage shown on the taskbar/nofication bar on the battery icon itself....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] elelinux:
Yes,you will get everything next update,I have deliberately waited to try different things, among other things, I drove with CoPilot today for 1 hour to work, lose gps signal once in about 2-5 seconds during the voyage. :D

There are an awful lot of small updates in the source during the past week, then my little surprise I hope to get together,have probably already added 50 hours on that :( to much,but but waiting for something good .........
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] wapz:
Hero specific code prep and optimizations for CM7? Would be easier if you perform all your fixes upstream so preparing your roms based on the nightly would be easier ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] elelinux:
I shall only I may order the ssh keys, etc. .. has done a lot of changes that should be uploaded with nighlies :D

Edit: Can also add, I've tried do not know how many times but failed to upload upstream, but will try over the weekend again,the **** git hub ****s like hell,easy be going crazy for less. :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sjknight413:
Hey ele :)

Still using your rom and happy with it!

one thing though, I mentioned something earlier you may have missed. Feeyo has managed to get window animations reaaaly smooth in his latest releases. Just wondered if it was worth asking how he did it?

Dalvik2Cache

Hi,

I post a question here but got no response. As a result, I try to make a dalvik2cache based on Elelinux7.

You can try it if you're interesting in this.

In this update, it disable the function of:

ln -s /sd-ext/dalvik-cache /data/dalvik-cache

Instead, it will do:

mount -o bind /cache/dalvik-cache /data/dalvik-cache

In this case, I assume it can not only save battery life a little (access memory instead of SD card), but get better performance if SD card speed is low speed..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Flow:
I had an awfull GPS reception on my previous ROM, which was your Final Froyo ROM ;)

But last week I've installed your 2.3 RC1 and it's very good now! :)

I've been using Google Nav and Sygic MM10 8.24 (with Navteq 2010.07 maps) the last few days and didn't loose the GPS signal at anytime :)

Only thing I've noticed is that Google Nav is actually to slow, but I'm thinking that's just a Google Nav issue. (It's telling me to go right/left at a point when I'm already at that point so then I miss it.)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] cyberghoser1:
The work put in this rom is excellent, i flashed it to test and its incredible, only minor thing in my eyes is the graphics lag, because of that i won't use it yet, but overall its realy great.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marcero:
I use it, but graphics for dialogs or popups could be a bit faster ;).

When do you want to release the next update, what do you think? Today or tomorrow :-) ? Can't wait.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xmaskx:
hmm..

i cant phone with this rom. during signal drops nearly always and i cant understand the people who are calling...

anybody got this issue too?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] elelinux:
You must excuse me, but it posted so much and I do not have time to read through everything, but this was interesting, I shall take a look at the script.

A quick question, is it meant instead of dalvik script I have in apps2sd ?

Edit: I have seen this script before somewhere,is it from Modaco ? ,there will be conflicts if I do not take away from dalvik apps2sd, if I not remember wrong.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] KSTu:
hi elelinux! i installed your rom it is very nice and stable....but i have an question: there is any posibility to remove unwanted system apps,like maps,street, etc? i try to remove them with system app remover but without succes.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
Use Uninstaller for Root from market.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] KSTu:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] timbohobbs:
Titanium Backup works for me with system app removal :-)

Yep, Titanium Backup kicks ass. I always remove the stock music application for instance, since it steals my Bluetooth button events. Quick and painless.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] KBEscalona:
Hello Everybody, does anybody know how to sync this rom to HTC sync. I need to sync it with my outlook. Many thanks in advance.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] f_padia:
I don't think that is possible in this ROM because this is not a sense ROM. Can only do HTC sync in sense ROMs
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] swatsbiz:
Correct! To use HTC Sync on your PC you'll need a ROM which includes HTC Sense. Which means you'll have to stick with an Android 2.1 based ROM or a buggy (and no camera) 2.2 ROM.

But there are plenty of options to sync your phone without HTC sync i.e. sync your contacts with Google (it is the native option) then use Titanium Backup and Wavesecure for everything else.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] elelinux:
The rom is updated :D enjoy

Mobile Network Connects Even While Disabled

I seem to have also lost 40MB of internal memory.

More worryingly it connects to mobile network as soon as I lose wifi connection even though this is meant to be disabled. Anyone else without a contract with data entitlement could be running up large bills without realising. Can you investigate asap
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
I will test this out for ya, did you disable it in the options or in a widget?

Booting now, Ill report back in around 5 min.

Did you do a full wipe or not?

If you did not, it is general sorta policy, to wipe first and check if it still happens and then report the problem. Cuss that can be the problem. We will never know :D

EDIT:

Well even how hard I press the Wifi off buton it does not turn on data connection, Mine stays off when I got it turned off.

It is an app you can install from market as a short term solution.

This option has worked in every other ROM I have tried from 2.2 onwards and was working fine in 0.9 so obviously someone has broken something in latest CM sources.
