Hi Elellinux,

Thanx a lot for your great work. Since froyo, when I found your ROM I always flashed newer version and only yours. Me and My hero was very happy about all the new surprises from you.

I am very sad that you will finish to develop more for Hero. I don't understand really the mess with feeyo and copy things - my bad english!!

I hope you can let soon all this behind you and you will start again to develop custom rom for Hero or other devices.

May be in a future time I will find a new great ROM from you for my mobil phone.

I wish you the best and thanks again that you let grow up my hero just to gingerbread.

Greetings

So let's stop condemning guys...

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jens.bergqvist:
I just want to sent a great big thank you to Elelinux for all his work! Really sad to hear that you may quit or take an extended leave, but under the circumstances it's not hard to understand. Wish you all the best and thank you for keeping my Hero usable a while longer!

FW clock update

I have one problem which remains. This concerns the clock update of Fancy Widget. After a while of usage, roughly 1-2 days the clock as well as the battery status of FW won't update. The clock in status bar is always updated as well as the battery status in system settings. I have mentioned this issue before. Rebooting resolves the problem. I have observed that it usually appears after the display is redrawn, for example after switching from portrait to landscape and vice versa. If this happens, from this time onward the time will only very sporadically updated.

Does anybody have a similiar problem, and have a solution?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Whyt_e:
have you upgraded to 1.6, it may be a problem with fancy widget and 2.3, and have you installed any patches e.t.c?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mikarbach:
Sorry, yes I have updated, but forgot to update my signature. The problem is also available in 1.6.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] casonhistoriko:
I think that it is not a ROM´s bug.

Try a new install, with all the wipes and with de ADB command that Elelinux left at the first post:

"TIP" To be on the safe side and really get the system clean, then apply a command with ADB

Code:

mount /system && rm -rf /system/* && umount /system

good luck
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] david.f.girault:
Nice to see that you have a fix. But do you upload it back to CyanogenMod?

I'm currently build myself CM7 and I wan't to try your patch.

Is there a public Git repositary where you commit this patch?

Thanks a lot for your work,

David
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
As far as I know, because of recent events Elelinux stopped the dev on this rom and is most likely not going to respond, nor finish this rom to the max.

Maybe I am wrong but he hasent responded since he last said he was going to slow down the dev.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DizzyWeb:
My timestamp issue with sms messages has been fixed... for some reason the option "Use original timestamps" got checked. I'm pretty sure I've never done that, so I have no idea how it happened... but that messed it all up. Now that it's unchecked, messages get the local timestamp of their arrival.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ipuljiz:
ele,

thanks for all your work
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] timbohobbs:
Sad to see you go. Thanks a million for all the work and support : )

I know little about the finer details of what went on and who ( if anyone ) didn't credit another developer, nor do many others who seem quick to pick a side and judge. Only the developers know and maybe not for total sure.

But two developers have stopped which only makes me think that if any ' stealing ' went on, surely this is due to the lack of colaboration and sharing that I ( naively or just ignorantly ) thought it was meant to be about.

****, enough about me. Just thanks again and hope it feels right for you again to work on the hero : )
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Dr34mc4tch3r:
Dude, seriously? The whole intention of Android is to share stuff so that these things dont happen. And yeah, people troll on the internet but those are mainly the fanboys. Also Feeyo apalogised already. We all believed you and the amount of comments, level on the thanks meter and complaints by your file host for too much downloaders should say more than enough. So please rethink what really matters: Argueing about a platform that was always supposed to be open, or reading all the thank-you comments after another great release.

You sir, have put a large stamp on the Hero. But there is still room for another few stamps.

Remember that there are far more fans than haters and that to us you are an icon, a Hero!

Cheers mate!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] keyra74:
who's gonna close this "feed the troll topic"...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] AzaraT:
Ele,

Thanks for all your hard work! Loving your roms. Very sad too see you go.

I am using Launcher Pro and every time I reboot the phone all the widgets are gone! I never had this with another rom. I restored my apps with Titanium.

Any suggestions?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jpq:
Never had this kind of problem

i think it's better using save/restore configuration in LP settings

A+

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] iulipepe:
You hace it installed on SD or internal memory. LP should be on internal.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tpnavas:
Thanks Ele for your time and for letting me to enjoy your work.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] helten2:
Oh - I am having the exact same problem. Wiped everything before flashing the ROM, but when I boot after installing Launcher Pro, the home screen is blank and I can't to anything.

Have to wipe the cache in recovery before every boot...any hints?

I only install apps to internal memory BTW.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
Try to place LauncherPro on the system partition.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] perdita2000:
I will like to tell you something about ELELINUX and Cronos fix.... They have both compile a backsource from 2.3.1 so they broke youtube HQ fix..... ?¿?¿?

Perdita2000

DON'T BELIEVE ME, TEST IT YOURSELF
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
I saw you placed this also in the Nightly topic. Kinda useless since it is not nightly related. but on this one.

Youtube HQ, whats the use on a screen like the hero? Youtube works fine for me on CG 1.9.5

And I tested 5 vids on HQ, and I got no idea what you mean it is broke, cuss it is working just fine here...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] perdita2000:
Doesn't work for me on ELELINUX.... At least for me after 1.6 or patch applied...

Perdita2000
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
Well in this one GAPPS is included, and that could be the case a wrong Youtube version, I got the Cronos version installed and the GAPPS from CM7 nightlies topic and then I used the setup wizard to install Youtube, worked fine for me.

And HQ same working just fine. So it has nothing to do with the fix they both implemented.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] goldencore:
How should I do this? De-install and then re-install (and how do I avoid apps2sd then?) or can I move it somehow?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] adry1988:
no sim contacts

why is it that i have 88 contacts on my sim but they wont show up in the contacts page!

i have tried importing them from sim but it keeps telling me i have no contacts on sim.

can someone help me or message me please.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
contacts on sim? I think in most of these froyo aosp roms you have to use some type of tool (maybe there's an android app for this?) to convert those sim contacts into google contacts so they just follow you around from android phone to android phone without worrying about sim data any longer.

That's a really distant memory though so I could be incorrect.

Anyone else?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] perdita2000:
You were right ... New gapps solve the problem... I thought it was related to patch because I read google code issue and change on that libraries will affect video capacities...

Many Thanks rdejager,

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tolis626:
Guys,is it normal that with this rom games(specifically Angry Birds and MX Moto at the moment) will lag on my girlfriend's Hero?Please help me cause she said that we won't be having sex until I find an answer! :p

By the way,congrats elelinux,erasmux and all you guys around here.You all make me regret I sold my Hero sometimes! :)

Sent from here!Boo-yeah! :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kiljacken:
Angry Birds lags on nearly all ROMs on the Hero, since some strange update a few months back. MX Moto should work fine on the HTC Hero, according to Jespr's comment on the Danish Android Market..

But it is likely that it will lag on this ROM, as Gingerbread is slower and more RAM consuming that FroYo was on the Hero, so I would recommend you to flash a Froyo ROM and test it there..

One great FroYo ROM is Elelinux's CM-6.2.0 Spin which you can find here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=906552

Good luck with your girl :D

-- Kiljacken
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Imperticus:
Yes, its something to do with gingerbread. Works perfectly fine on all Froyo/Eclair ROMs. And Angry Birds will NEVER work smoothly on the Hero, just not powerful enough :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tolis626:
Oh God,se can be a ***** sometimes... :p

Anyway,she says she doesn't like the look of Froyo!Either I will convince her to flash elelinux's froyo rom,or she will make me flash her a Sense eclair rom!Will see...

Thanks anyway guys! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] minty1978:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] elelinux:
It has been nice with a small break, as I wrote in my last post should take a break.Logged in here for the first time in a week to read some pm etc.. including from erasmux and was instantly in a better mood.

Been thinking a bit on this with md5sum, etc., talking with a friend who is a skilled programmer, and of course I tried a lot of different things,this has certainly come up during the week that I have not been here, if you compile from the same source regardless of 32bit or 64bit, the result is the same if the source is the same,it has been showed in my tests ,in all cases and I have tried with different computers, one with a 32bit with 64bit, it does not matter what comments I add only the code will be included in the file, but if I changed any variable then there will be a differences.

As I also wrote in my last post that I might release a final, it will come, and all my settings and files, etc. and a guide how to compile etc..'

Best Regards
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dpjohnston:
Thanks for all your work with this. I have been running 1.6 since minutes after you released it and I have had no problems and battery life is best so far with gingerbread. It also now works very well with updated version of Launcher Pro so very pleased all round.

Welcome back! Thank you as always for your work!

I can't wait to try your final release, the version 1.6 has been a pleasure so far and I have been using it for a week.

Best battery life ever, and everything is smooth an stable.

Finally I am running a clean gingerbread release! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] enzydroid:
WTF? Where's everything gone?

I'll apologise first of all if this has already come up, but right now I don't have time to wade through 189 pages...

I've been playing with 1.5 and 1.6 for the last week, and twice now, since installing (and reinstalling) 1.6, I've turned off my phone, then turned it on again only to find everything has reset; no more launcherpro, no more restored applications, but the wallpaper remains the same (I'd changed it to one in the Elelinux Wallpapers).

Has this happened to anyone else? I guess I'm just going to have to wipe and start again, but would be nice to find out why...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marcero:
I set up a empty wiki for the ROMs on my webspace:

http://elelinux.marcero.de/wiki

There is not already one, isn't it?

Everyone is invited to work through this thread and fill the information into the wiki.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] GbNoR:
Probably a nice gesture this.

But what is wrong with the already wiki, here on XDA?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] GbNoR:
Just want to say thank you elelinux.

The Elelinux-7.0.0-RC2-Hero-v1.6 was my first...root...:D

and I have to say, I'm loving it, great work!!

And to keep you motivated:

Confirmation nr: 2PT35975SR336434U
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marcero:
I did not really think about this possibility. :rolleyes:

And because I read about a wiki in this thread a few times, I think the only problem was to give some webspace and because I offer a download link already, I think, why not hosting it on my space, too.

The other reason was my interest in trying out the webspace possibilities.

Sorry for that. Probably it might be more useful to create a wikipage here. :o

Decide yourself. I let it on so long and would combine them if someone create one here and also on my webspace to prevent fragmentation. (Androids fragmentation is enough for me :D)

Marcero
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ExMM:
Never happen to me before, but I guess there is always something that could go wrong, isn't it? :rolleyes:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] GbNoR:
I understand :)

As long as your site don't violate with any of the forum rules...

any wiki is more then welcome.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] liput_81:
Great ROM and good to see you back

I have 2 small bugs that if fixed would be great

1. I use dialer one instead of stock dialer but after a reboot the system forgets the preference to use this when pressing the dial key. Happens for both the button and the softkey. Am using launcher pro, if thus impacts? All other default app preferences are ok

2. My work exchange email stops getting new email aftera few hours, reboot fixes it. This may be harder to fix and I think it started with the move to 2.3.3

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ciprilik:
Is it just me or the animations got as smooth as they are in froyo? I just returned to Gingerbread with a full wipe from testing Elelinux-Hero-2.1-update1 for the last week as I missed Sense a bit since I haven't used a sense rom since last summer when I bought the phone :D

Hi!!

is there any way to install HTC Keyboard? it is very easy to use. also the phone application of HTC (all these are from 2.1)?

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xsxd:
Wow! Great ROM indeed! Very fast and pretty stable. A much better experience than froyo.

Not that it is a problem for me, but the wifi icon disappears after a while, even though it still is connected in the wifi settings. It reappears when I actively use the internet.

Also, the power control in the notifications disappeared for me during the first run. came back after 2 reboots. :)

The break was well deserved! And I'm glad to see you back!

Been running 2.1 for a while now but I'm eager to try GB again, and this one looks great, as always. Thanks for all your hard work Ele!!

Edit: which launcher is the smoothest with GB right now? I know LP has issues and is kinda slow, but the rewrite will probably take care of that, whenever that's out.

How about zeam, ADW, stock?

edit2: what are the recommended settings for a2sd, ext 2 3 or 4? i have the default sd-card that came with the phone, which one will be the fastest?

And is it slower to run a2sd then not, i mean, my sd-card can't be as fast as my internal memory right?

Cheers!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
Wooot!!!!!!111oneone

Animations are smoooooth...

Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] helten2:
Edit: It is not missing - it appeared after logging in to my google account. So it WAS me that was missing something :p

Is the Market missing? It was there in the previous release and I just did a complete wipe before installing the current version.

I can see it under "Application settings", but I can't find anywhere to launch it.

Most likely I am missing something though :p

Thanks!

Are they really so much faster than e.g. CM7 build #32?

How about popup menus like when adding widgets? Does it still lag when opening?

On LP about a second
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
I'm talking about windows like this when you are adding widgets.

Now it's ultra smooth.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Krizp0:
Sounds good, gonna test it out this evening! :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marcero:
What I really hate is, that I'm gone back to Froyo Speedmachine, because it was much smoother for me and after this release everyone says it's ultra cool, but I do not want to install everything again. :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ciprilik:
U can always make a nandroid of 2.2.1 and try latest Elelinux GB release and if u don't like it you can return to froyo in under 3 minutes... but I bet when you see the speed of window animations of this release you will forget about froyo :D If u feel like it , give it a try and let us know what you think :D

clear now?
