Yes it does. Or more correctly: I am using it and cannot find it among my downloaded apps so it has to be included in the rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Immortal_Baron:
which live wallpapers work smoothly ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] majorpappy:
From my experience, None. I tried a few and they just pegged the processor...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] drancill:
Not working!

Maybe I'm doing something wrong...

I'm looping at the Andriod startup screen (yes I can still get in recovery)

any ideas? :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thiagofbrito:
Wipe all, flash again. You should be fine.

Don't forget to reboot before setting everything up.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] haseeb114:
rom is good,,,,,,, BUT!!!

black color isnt black enough ,, color are somewhat not good.. like lears of color appears,,, Auto brightness doesn't work properly. its on high brightness in dark... no touch focus in cam....

And cant find flash 10.1 for it.... plz post .apk file here!!!!!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
Wonder when people are going to learn and read....... FLASH 10.1 WILL NEVER WORK ON THE HTC HERO.

about the rest. Yes colors are a little of. that is a Gingerbread problem. If your running CM7 based rom, and turn on surface dithering, this problem is gone.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] haseeb114:
flash 10.1 worked on 2.1 rom ... but i guss not in 2.3 ... how im gonna turn on surface dithering... 1st time heard that word :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
Nono, flash 10.1 never worked XD

If you look around you can see that it is flash lite.

Like I said, in a CM7 based rom, you can do it in the options of the CM options. I got no idea how to do it in this rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] The0Code:
You're able to turn flash 10.1 on in CM7 based roms?

Is there any way to override the default dialler? I prefer dialler one which is installed, but once the phone call is initiated, the default dialler takes over... up until that point it's running dialler one... odd?!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tatwamasi:
You should be able to set it as the default. It works for me? Go into Application Settings and clear the relevant defaults and then when you get the option make sure you set Dialer One to be the default dialer.

Insufficient storage available

I tried to install the latest update of Google Reader but it failed due to "Insufficient storage available"

When I check with Titanium I get these numbers:

Internal: 173 MB (114 MB free)

SD card: 15,4 GB (6,27 GB free)

SD card (a2sd): 479 MB (336 MB free)

How can this be unsufficient storage?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] TA123:
I guess it's a bug. I often have to try a few times to install an application because of that

Is there any way to replace the Froggy sound for empty battery?

Last night it scared the **** out of my GF while she was playing Sudoku with lights off :D. It's like playing DeadSpace for them I guess :D.

Also I don't like the sound myself very much.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] danoneil:
Mmm... this is odd. In my last ROM, in calls, the Dialer One app has this thing where you swipe up the keypad. This one has it showing the buttons on the screen... which I thought was the original dialer. When selecting a phone number to call, if I press menu and about it's definitely the dialer one app that is running... just the in call screen that looks like the default dialler??
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lagren:
Do you mean CM7 got flash light integrated like Sense ??

I've been waiting for years to get FL workin on non-sense roms :D

Low DPI

Hi!

First of all, I would like to thank you for all your ROMs for the Hero.

I've used a lot of them, but now I'm on CM7 nightlys.

I was wondering, how did you achieve the low dpi settings in your rom?

I was trying to modify the /system/build.prop ro.sf.lcd_density=140. /that should be a nice value, with almost sharp graphics)

On the main screen and with the majority of apps its nice (like in your rom) but in some apps (installed before settings changed) apps show up with black border around them (like they are not streched out to fullscreen)

In your ROM they're working fine

Have you added some kind of script to make them work? Is it possible to tell how?

Thanks in advance...

Update: I've tried to reinstall the apps (no success :( )
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] bluepinkpanther:
Disable Compability Mode in Spare Parts and reboot.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] juhasz.jozsef:

Apparently most Froyo & Gingerbread ROM's have a problem when watching movies longer than about 1 hour. In my case the sound is fine but the video freezes. Anything you can do about it RaduG?

I don't watch movies on my Hero myself but the guy who does isn't allowed to post in this forum due to too few posts so I'm doing it for him.

so whats the word on mms on this rom? It does not work for me =/

Anyone else got it up and running?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tonyleeloveyou:
Hey, RaduG

i'm back to TF again,that's awesome!

and how is the tf update going?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] majorpappy:
Works great for me. I've been using it for about 2 weeks now with very few issues.

What do you mean by 'it doesn't work'?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] EnsconcE:
I am using this ROM for a while and i love it. It nice and slick. I only got a problem with rotating, the screen does not rotate when i turn my phone sideways. I have installed Rotation Toggler from the market and that one does not solve my problem either. Out-of -the box rotation has only function in the beginning with this rom (about one day). The same for Rotation Toggler, after installation it has functioned again just for one day. can somebody help me?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] majorpappy:
Are you referring to the home screen or applications? Rotation does not work for me on the home screen but I've had no issues with apps (e.g. Android Market, Handsent SMS, Browser).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] danoneil:
To add a little to the dialer one issue - there's an app called "phone" which sometimes appears in the menu that pops up if you hold down the home key.

I can't find any reference to this in the application settings and the "dialler" app has no default actions set so they can't be cleared...

In the about for this app, it says...

Mod Name

WyContacts Froyo

Version 1.2

Any way to stop this being the default phone call handler and allow dialer one to be the main app?

Cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] EnsconcE:
No, i'm referring to all apps. But the weird thing is, upon posting my post yesterday, rotation seems to function again with Rotation Toggler :confused:. Though that app is showing some weird behaviour. It now shows it's icon in the notification area which was not there before (i had disabled that function). I can hide it, but then i have to disable and enable Rotation Toggler. But nonetheless, i'm happy because rotation functions again :)

The problem is that no video uploaded after mid December will play in HQ on Hero, Wildfire and some other devices. Older videos play fine.

Is there a way to turn off the ad blocker on this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] grcd:
Can someone offer me a simple explanation to the problem I am having?

I have a Class 4 8GB card by Samsung. I was often having many problems with all ROMs, mostly of note that they would turn to extremely slow speeds after a couple of days of use. Even doing a dalvik-cache wipe would not significantly improve things.

At first I thought that it was a problem with the phone and that HTC Hero phones are just simply too sluggish to run the new Android version ROMs.

I was wrong.

I had my SD setup so that it had both a small swap and ext2.

I decided to reformat the card and remove both swap and ext2. The phone now 'flies' in speed comparison and it does not significantly deteriorate in performance after the first few days. It is really a big improvement.

But now I am left with a big question: What use is swap and ext if they do not improve speed? I understand that ext is useful especially on 2.1 and before, because it allows you to have more space for installing programs. But what about swap? Is it realistic that using it will only make the phone slower over time?

Can someone explain to me the difference between choosing a swap or no-swap, and the difference in choosing between ext2, ext3 and/or ext4?

Has anyone had really fast results by using any combination of swap and/or ext, or do you suggest that I do as I discovered, i.e. simply not use either?

So far from my experience, not using either of the two is actually better for long term stability -- and therefore sensible usability.

Any insight will be really welcome.

Is this rrot

Hi Radu, Is this rooted? Keyboard and mouse doesnt work when i use android screencast.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] squeeish:
Um... of course it's rooted. You have to be rooted in order to be able to install this ROM anyway right? :confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arklov:
I have these settings, but it wont work anyway =/

It just says "sending" and nothing happens...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] torkel_b:
Hmm, where do you find these settings?

I can see one difference, I am using APN online.telia.se, not mms.telia.se when checking Settings/Wireless & network settings/Mobile networks/Access point names
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] arklov:
There are two different settings, one for internet and one for mms. The mms setting was set to "mms.telia.se". I tried changing it to "online.telia.se", but it didn't help. This sucks

Battery Drains so fast

Hi Radu,

which radio version are you using? Under settings/about
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] torkel_b:
I can't find any special radio version but Baseband version is 63.18.55.06PU_6.35.15.11

I just wiped everything and installed TastyGinger so I have whatever radio it came with I guess.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] davrave:
The rom does not come with a radio. This is something that you the end user, has to install by yourself. BTW There are newer radios available.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] andAsh:
There may be a serious problem there. Phone randomly restarts when using Google Navigator with the screen switched off. OC settings set to factory speeds.

Navigation on my phone is very important function and I am afraid I'll have to look for another ROM.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Slugbug:
I'm not really using my Hero all that often anymore, but I recently flashed this ROM on it. I managed to get 9 days out of my battery. Before, the battery would last 3 days or so at most. Nice work RaduG!

small statusbar icons

hello

I installed this rom u made and love it.

its fast reliable....and i like it/

my only preference is that the statusbar icons be bigger, and the battey icon would have nombers.

is there a way to do that?

thanks

Mike
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
No not on this rom, you need to install CM7, or a ripoff of that.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] thedoginthewok:
I don't know why, but this Rom is extremely laggy and slow on my Hero.

I wiped it all and flashed it several times, but always with the exact same result.

I may be that I have high demands on speed, but it may also be, that there is something faulty with my phone.

I've overclocked to 710Mhz and it is a little better, but I'll change my Rom after only one day using this one.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Bladesan:
As far as I know all GingerBread roms are somewhat slow at displaying animations. It's actually quite speedy once you disable menu animations.

I seem to have developed a problem where I can't boot to recovery anymore, it just hangs at the G2 Touch screen and I have to pull the battery to get it to reboot. It will boot up to work just fine, just not to recovery, is there a way round this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Dark Emotion:
hey man , here is the original thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=645253

and here is tutorial:

1. Backup your SD card to your computer (very important as this process will wipe all the data on it)

2. Restart your phone into recovery mode (Home + Power)

3. Select:

Partition sdcard

Partition SD

Press Home

Swap-size = 0 MB

Ext2-size = 512 MB (recommended)

FAT32-size = Remainder

Press Home

4. Once complete Reboot system now and wait! This can take 20 minutes or so to complete, so just keep waiting!

DO NOT USE EXT3 or EXT4 partitions. They will just wear out your sd card quicker. They are designed for large files systems (i.e. 50GB+) with full operating systems running on them! The only benefit they bring is indexing (which on a 512MB partition is worthless). (Optional - before reboot) - Under partition sdcard you can convert the ext2 partition to ext3 - "SD:ext2 to ext3" - however this isn't recommended as it will wear out your sd card quicker. There is also often support for ext4 so you can do "SD:ext3 to ext4" after the first one too. Though again this will typically just wear out your SD faster without providing any speed benefits. See note above.

memory leak

Is the suspected graphics system memory leak exists on this rom, like it does on all other GB roms?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Bladesan:
I don't know, but Bubble Blast 2 and Bonsai Blast are working slower for me, despite minor overclocking (652MHz). Bubble blast just recently optimized performance and it is NOT showing on my device :).

Other games are somewhat ok .. Angry birds are slow on beginning and during castle parts falling apart.

I don't know about other roms, but this one is stable and battery efficient. So far no major problems. But I have my eye open for Cronos Ginger, because of constant development on the ROM ... it's hard to believe how RaduG released this ROM so quickly and is without issues, everything just works - except animations, they are slow and choppy, but as I read, every GB has this problem :).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] adisa:
Your phone has partially unrooted. way out is to re-root your phone:

1) Boot up your phone, copy your desired recovery.img to your sd card root directory then attached your phone to usb and start up adb;

adb shell

su

mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

you also use better terminal on the phone;

su

mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

Another way is to copy both recovery.img and runindos.bat (unzip the attached file) to your adb tools directory then start adb;

Adb remount

runindos.bat

your phone will be rooted and and rebooted into recovery.

runindos.bat is courtesy of the Villain rom team.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] torkel_b:
I have been using this ROM since 6/2 and the only thing problem I have experienced is that GPS-locking seems a bit off. Normally Caridotrainer always keeps track of the satellites during my "standard" walk but not so good anymore.

I have baseband version 63.18.55.06PU_6.35.15.11

Is there a better radio out there maybe?

Can't really live without low-DPI anymore. Keep up good work!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Bladesan:
Thx RaguG for this ROM, but after 2 months I converged to CronosGinger :) ..

Lately I experienced quite laggy response from my Hero and slow list scrolling (I have around 150 apps!!), so I decided to try another ROM, with better dev support (unluckily freeyo stopped developing too :( ).

I have to say that Tasty was very nice ROM, but CronosGinger is much smoother for me (and on my Hero).

I liked Tasty's low-DPI and battery life, but seeing how smooth CG is and what all the CM settings can do, I'll just have to live without that - I would like to see that on CG though :).

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ZACHARiAS_:
well, his roms AFAIK are built and compatible with latest radios. ive got this one: 63.18.55.06PU_6.35.15.14 tha you can download here. i got it from his rom here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=727459. give it a go and let us know.

kudos
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
This is because this rom is Outdated and uses old GPS Hacks to get it to work. The latest GB Roms got better support for that. And the Radio well that should not have a massive impact on locking. It is more the server your phone uses to find the satalites. I always set mine to use the netherlands with FasterFix and well it works.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ZACHARiAS_:
@RaduG

will you consider to update this wonderfull rom and make it absolutly perfect? it still has a minor bugs. i think we would all help you test it and point out plus and cons. what do you say mate?

we're kinda eager for it. kudos
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Habarug:
RaduG has moved on to a new phone a long time ago. What do you want this Rom for? The other GB roms are way better as I see it, what advantages does this have over the others?

simplicity, lightness and response. \m/
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
You tried any other GB roms, cuss well Cronos for one is way lighter and faster then this. And if you want speed go to 2.2 AOSP Rom like Floyo 1.4 PRE1 or Elelinux speedmachine V4
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ZACHARiAS_:
well but cronos didnt stop developing. my point is, considering that RaduG has many rom, the ones ive tryed always had these features. ;)
