Hi guys! :) I managed to port the Cronos Ginger just like giant used to do. I already talked with him and i'm gonna start porting the ROM. Today it's impossible for me to start a new thread because it's my mother's birthday and i'm gonna be very busy, but hopefully i can do it tomorrow. Here you have the 2.3.1 update to try out. I made some changes particularly to the kernel that is the new carz12 2.6.34.4 kernel. :)

Here you have it: http://www.mediafire.com/?4fpblpm6ymmem38

Unkjcr, In Your rom accelerometer not working.

I have same problem on my ports
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Mr.H-DK:
Hey Unkjcr. Sounds great that you will continue the work of the falling giant. giant, you will be missed and thanks for all your work, it's been quite a ride :)

Unkjcr, I downloaded your port, but haven't flashed it yet, reading the Cronos forum, it sounds like they have some issues with this build.

I have a suggestion. Can you make the version number follow Cronos like giant_rider did, it's more obvious what's inside the package.

And a little side note. If I look in system/app there is a lot of stuff starting with 'g' is that ok to have in, just so don't get into trouble?

Looking forward to your ports :)

/system/bin/akmd file is different from previous rom's...

replaced from previous version and it works

Hello,

I just replaced the file and reboot.

Is working ok.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] aadam79:
Hello,

I just installed this rom and I really like it. One issue: Locking the phone (gingerbread TV off Animation), and the lock screen are very laggy.

Has anyone had this problem? If so, how do you fix it? Alternatively, is there a way to customize lock animations and lock screens?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Mr.H-DK:
They can be a little laggy. You can disable them in setting, where you change all other visual stuff. I am using Danish, is no clue that that setting is called in English. They are called screen on/off animations I think(don't have the phone in me right now)

If you have installed 2.3.0 the setting is not there :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ricc@rd:
And so, in 2.3.0, where can I find this setting?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Mr.H-DK:
It's not in the 3.2.0! I copied system->app->Settings.apk from cronos 2.3.1(for HTC Hero) into 3.2.0 after install

You can also install the newest version, giants work is taken over by Unkjcr

Thanks for the replies! I hope this can be fixed in a future version. Best rom on this phone I've seen so far
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Mr.H-DK:
The ROM continues and is taken over by Unkjcr

[ROM][32A][6.35] CGX-Magic 1.0.1 (Android 2.3.5) 30/07/2011

This is somehow the continuation of giant_rider's GBRider_Cronos. It's a port of the HTC Hero ROM Cronos Ginger X from Cronos Project Team.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Sorry with this release I had to make a full rom.

Do a nad backup, then try flashing v2 over v1. You may encounter some problems though, not sure.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Tafla:
I flashed to v2 from v1 without wipe. And now compass (hardware sensors) are not working at all. Anyone noticed this problem, or it's just me?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] drbobb:
I confirm, compass and accelerometer don't work at all. Did the same - no-wipe flash over v1.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] drbobb:
Unfortunately wiping and reflashing doesn't fix anything.

Back to v1 (nandroid).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fonsigno:
giant please fix screen autorotate, and screen on off animation :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I will be fixing the compass and accelerometer tonight. So if you can hang tight until then I will update a file to flash.

So auto-rotate will be fixed (that was my fault - I forgot to do something to the rom before I signed and zipped last night).

From the first post:

..To enable On/Off animations in this build:

..1. SpareParts: Enable both and put on Normal.

..2. Menu -> Settings -> Display -> Animation = Show All.

..3. CM Extra -> Display -> Rotate 180 = enable.

..4. CM Extra -> Display -> Rotate Screen On and Off = enable.

..This should work. If not reboot.

Not sure if the problem with the compass and accelerometer might also impact screen on/off. These instructions to fix the screen on/off is from the Hero Cronos forum. Not sure why the CM Extra Rotate 180 setting needs to be enabled. If this does not work now, you can try it after the update tonight.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fonsigno:
Thanks for you re hard work :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D::D:D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] blaster44:
ROM is really good. I hope you support this in the future :)

Please, do fast animations... Screen off working, but it's slow, same as all other animations. Thanks, and waiting for update :)

eu gps

i have a hard time getting the GPS to work here in denmark (europe) :(.. sad cause i use maps a lot :P

and do you know a 700 mhz overclocked kernel that would work with this rom
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Mr.H-DK:
On FroyoRider Capychimp had a GPS fix. He is from Denmark to(like me). He might have the issue to and if you are lucky a fix. I am still on FroyoRider for a couple of days more and then I will switch to this ROM to. Looking forward to it!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] smoke_weed:
Is this Deodexed?

I want to change the background of the statusbar to white and icons to ones I made before That I used for froyo? Which apk do I change on ninjamorph to change the background and batter and signal icons .. I think its in a seperate place because when I did it using the froyo guide I used before I don't get anything changed except Wi-fi. Which is the framework.apk
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Here is the fix for the compass and accelerometer. Flash this with NO wipe over v2.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Tafla:
After flashing compass and accelerometer update, not only these two started to work, but also TV on/off animation kicked in :)

I want to say thank You for Your work on this ROM. It put new life into my magic :)

Hi,

I have problems with ADB too.

when try "adb devices" there's a msg saying "ADB server didn't ACK", is the same problem?!

any solution for this?!

Thks

P.S. Giant congratulations for your hard work, we can have ginger in our "old boy" (Magic)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] r4mps:
Thank you for the work on the port, kernel and fixes rider and carz :)

Maybe these are known problems, but i get f/c in shazam, system info in cm extra. Shazam is the voice input bug i guess :)

Battery life is great too. In gbrider v4 had awfull standby, with the exact same widgets and settings for syncs and updates etc.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] IstBarP:
Thx trying it out now! :D

what about a 710 mhz kernel? .. i dont flash my phone so much anymore, but i have had problems with the latest games (they lag like crazy.. mostly angry birds i want to play right now :P), never tried the 710 mhz kernel.. :)

or is there another fix on these problems?.. i know this isn't the right place for the question but since i am looking for a kernel to this rom i could ask anyway :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] drbobb:
Thanks for the sensor fix, seems to work fine. I'm not getting the screen off/on animations though, no matter what voodoo I perform.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Right now we have no 710 MHz kernel, but carz posted a 614 MHz kernel in his Diet Gingerbread thread. I have not tested it with GBRider Cronos v2 but it should work fine.

I've got strange behavior accesing display during call - can't get rid of this bar with green and red phone buttons so I can't acces all dialpad numbers.

Anyone?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] snailmale:
screen on/off animation works for me, but is far too laggy to be realistic. either way, its not a big deal to me.

FC when going to CM Extras, System

GREAT performance and smoothness, the boundaries of my phone's quadrant score have been pushed even further.

i cant seem to get the trackball to pulse, which while small, is something that i do quite like. although its also something that hasnt happened in quite a while, as it has been neglected in recent roms.

all in all, this is a fantastic rom by feeyo/Giant/carz. now lets just hope i dont have to pay for it with battery life!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Someone said you can download Notifylight from the Market and it will fix the trackball pulsing issue. I think mine pulses when I get a phone call. I have not tried Notifylight.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] capychimp:
trackball is a so tiny thing compared to a fully working gingerbread ;)

Hi Giant.

Just flashed V2. Do I need to flash 614 kernel of carz to have OC?

Also, when receving the phone I could not see the number of caller in case of they have more than 2 phone numbers, due to the cycle of the unlock screen. So can I change this?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] nO_LimiT:
Accelerometer

Is it just me, or does the accelerometer doesn't work at all?

The ROM does not change to landscape on messages/contacts...

But, and summing up, great work :)

Found out now about the patch to fix it.. I'll try it tomorrow :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] snailmale:
in my case, overnight for 9 hours, with 3G and sync on, although i did not touch it at all.

100% dropped to 22%.

gahh i hate having to choose between battery life and smoothness. carz's rom gives me wonderful battery life. giant's rom gives me incredible speed and smoothness. but for the time being i have to revert to carz's, i need battery life that lasts at least 16 hours of normal usage.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
This rom uses carz's kernel. Battery life should be similar unless you have other processes and apps running I would guess, but I am not entirely sure about this because this rom has other tweaks that carz's probably does not.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Weird. The update only changed one file in the whole rom. For me battery performance was the same as before.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
You can flash carz's 576 and 614 oc kernel over this rom with no wipe. I have added links to first and second posts. These kernels are carz's updated v2 kernels. GBRider_Cronos_v2 includes carz's v1 576 kernel, so you may want to flash his latest version.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] halo140288:
why the G-sensor doesn't work???
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] snailmale:
i suppose the tweaks are eating up my battery faster than carz's rom. but those same tweaks make things much faster.

on carz's rom, 13 hours of light usage brings me from 100% to about 65% battery.

but its significantly slower than your rom.

either way, im eagerly looking forward to testing each release from you, in hopes that i can finally get a rom as fast as yours but with good battery life!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
I'm getting over 2 days on one charge, but then again I usually have 3G turned off.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
There is an update to fix this in the 2nd post.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fonsigno:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sevag00:
I really like the rom. Very smooth UI. There is one problem i encountered with the battery. I was using wifi for about 3 hours and the battery life went from 100 to 80 which is pretty good. But then when i restarted the phone my battery goes from 80 to 90. Anybody having the same problem?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vercetti:
hey giant rider,

really like your rom - great work!

2 or 3 issues i found so far:

1.) after using gps with goople maps navigation i turn off gps but the symbol still stays in the status bar. gps is off but the symbol doesn't disappear. is there a way to fix this?

2.) also maps crashed a couple times for me so far (when entering an adress it would crash without warning). just went back to desktop. i'll have to see if this keeps happening.

3.) more a cosmetic/minor thing: i use german language and 24hour time display (as opposed to am/pm). with 24h display there is no need for am/pm. but in screenlock it says (for example) 23:20 "afternoon" or 08:15 "morning" (in german of course). this must be the translation for am/pm, but there is no need for am/pm in 24h display. dietginger from carz doesn't have this just in case you wanna see why this appears.

of course point 1 is most important in this list. i'd aprecciate it if you had the time to look into these issues.

thanx for your time!

and great rom!

greetz,

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ntphuong:
I flashed carz 614 kernel.but the speed is 576 only.... Downloaded by carz's link. Tried twice. I don't know why?

Also, auto brightness is not working well, I think so.

The speed of rom is fast and there is no FC after 6 hours of use, except CM extra.

I saw in Cm extra, compcache ram is disbable, so can we enable it to make rom faster?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ntphuong:
also, screen rotation happened with home screen. Is there any way to stop this?

Any one get this issue before?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ntphuong:
Tks so much.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
v21 includes the update to fix auto-rotation.

It does not include carz's latest kernel.

The links to carz's latest kernels are in the 1st and 2nd posts. Just flash one of them over the rom with no wipe.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
What recovery do you have?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
You can turn off auto-rotation in the settings for LauncherPro in Behavior Settings.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
Did you change the kernel speed default in Settings -> CM Extra -> Performance -> CPU Settings?

I changed the min and max CPU to 245 and 614. Then I selected "Set on boot". Then I reboot and my changes were still there.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
For anyone who is having battery issues when phone is sleeping, here is a fix that works great for me.

Using the Power Control widget (for convenience not out of necessity), I turn off 3G, wifi, BT, GPS, sync and data before I go to sleep at night.

Last night I changed settings this way, left my phone on and unplugged, this morning 9 hours later my battery was at 99%.

It's because I put in a statement to prevent people from flashing with the wrong hboot. I did not include 1.76.0010.

I hope to release an update tonight or tomorrow and will fix it so you can flash. If you don't want to wait change your hboot to the same one in my signature.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
The fix for this will be in the next release. Not sure about the others. Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
My guess is this problem is caused by the app and not the rom.

I am able to get rid of the gps symbol by opening navigation again, select menu, then click exit navigation.

It seems navigation does not close right unless you do this.

This is a fantastic rom. Bravo. Only one hiccup I've had so far - some apps that make use of the camera seem to fc. I've tried Camera 360, Camscanner and Camcard and all of them fc. The camera app works though as do Goggles and barcode scanner.

Also I've tried to move some apps to the storage card, but it gave an error that there was not enough space available, even though there was plenty of space on the card. This happened with only some apps and not others.

Ok...it appears that the camera problems were not caused by the rom. For some reason uninstalling and reinstalling the offending apps cured the problem. They were originally restored using rerware myBackup from my previous rom which was Froyo based. Perhaps that was the problem. As for the move to sd problem, I have not found a solution yet. Any ideas?
