Link for my custom port of villian rom 5.0 which is based on cdma hero
Link
full rom based on sanpei kernel
What works :
Everything except:
Accelerometer
Camera is funky - can still take pics but need to play with the app to get it working at all
leds and lights probaly dont work as they should as is usual from hero ports
and the usb mount you need to use app mount usb
pretty much it
great rom - see original thread for info on rom
Thanks to nprussel and sanpei
edit update some further bugs
why not work together with robocik he is working on that rom too maybe you can fix it together
i was thinking how is leds and trackball on this rom?

if i put mine in, it would only increase with ½ more hehe
I`m starting to get confused who is making what Hope developers wont abandon us when official release of 2.1 will come
yeah thats my meaning too, robocik is on villian rom, now we have one more, we have sanpei on legend sense, and ahmgsk on eclair 2.1
im just making ports for people to use
really
ive got a super fast one incoming as well
if there was a rom for the version/rom i was using i wont release another if its working
just thought since i spend so much time porting myself i will release some for others to use
+45
how does your verison handle phone numbers starting with + (countrycode) phonenumber, it works or the number needs to be in 00 instead of +
ive only tested with north american formated numbers
+ 1 XXX XXX XXXX
works fine imo all my phonebook has + in it
installing now i will report what i find
when trying to change what to view under people, you cannot see the choices, when dailing like in denmark+45 it has the same as robocik it becomes 011 45 instead. outside us it needs work still.
no rotate
Force close at first boot.(something about Sense...??)
Took out the battery...boot...loading...very very slow...an now..WOW it`s verry fast.
After it loads the menu it`s so FAST
And the interface looks amazing an it has 3d Gallery
Hope the rotation gets fixed soon, need it for typing. But I support all the effort you guys put into this
Once rotation works, I'll try it
he needs to push in sensors.sapphire.so to the lib/hw i think

WI-FI don`t work.
"Unable to start WI-FI"
In 3d gallery, when switching from a video back to gallery it has the same resolution problem that ahmgsk resolved a while ago. (when you switch from landscape to portrait.

Ok, I've been trying out a lot of Hero ROMS and I'm always disappointed in the speed, or lack thereof. Each time I have found myself flashing back to a stable Hero build and then customizing it to my liking (see below). This release is mainly for my own sanity, to save myself the time and effort of getting back to a setup I prefer.
For clarification purposes, I will be referring to these builds as PhotonMod_Hero1 and PhotonMod_Hero1.5
Just understand that v1 is based on LeakDroid's SuperHero3 build and v1.5 is based on JACHero 2.63.
**UPDATE 7/15/09**
As requested, Re-upped PhotonMod_Hero v1 without the Asian IME (pinyinIME.apk). Just be sure to choose English on the first screen of the setup wizard.
PhotonMod_Hero v1:http://www.mediafire.com/?l3inmmtmjzz
NOTE: If you have random Asian characters showing up in odd places, power off the phone and turn it back on. This seems to only happen before the first reboot.
(Reminder, this one does not use AppsToSD. It is basically SuperHeroV3-MAS minus Rosie and all HTC widgets. Also minus swap. and with a few other teaks.)
Also,
Here is "Lite" version of PhotonMod_Hero1.5. I removed the Weather app and widget, and Retro Clock widget.
PhotonMod_Hero v1.5:http://www.mediafire.com/?nyhyfzzyiom
****UPDATE 7/14/09****
Bluetooth is NOT working in any Hero build at this time
New Build release: PhotonMod_Hero v1.5 - Lite
Based on JACHero2.63 with the following changes:
**Changelog - PhotonMod_Hero1.5 - Lite**
-Removed ALL HTC Widgets
-Replaced HTCCamera with one that works (No sideways image)
-Replaced HtcMusic with old Music app from non-Hero builds (b/c that one is a resource hog!)
-Replaced Rosie with standard Launcher
-Removed Teeter.apk/odex, Stocks.apk/odex, DCS_Stocks.apk/odex
-Removed (commented) Swap partition section in a2sd.sh as I want to try this build out without a Swap partition.
-Added section in a2sd.sh to move a "wallpaper" folder to the FAT32 partition on your SD. That folder contains the wallpapers from the Rosie wallpaper gallery (See Below)
-Added AppsInstaller
-Added Custom Lock Screen
-Added a few "Gems" to the Ringtones/Notifications
To use AppsToSD, make sure you have your SD card setup with Fat32/Ext3 partitions. You will not need a third Linux-Swap partion with this build.
To use new Wallpapers, at the Home screen, press Menu -> Wallpaper. Then choose Albums. You should see a wallpaper folder containing 5 wallpapers.
Thanks to JesusFreke, Haykuro, JAC, Cyanogen, L3wish and the Leakdroid crew, Meltus, and all the other great Devs working to give us the experience we want from our phones.
Rename to update.zip and flash as usual.
you really need to try jac 2.63 with a freshly formatted card and a linux/swap partition. its quite a thrill
Can u put some pics
might give this a try on my other g1...just for fun
i want som pics plzzz !!! and some comments of the one who flashed this .
Fully Functional?
As in Bluetooth working?
Why in the world do you need pics...its hero, duh.
And I have to agree, even 2.63 is quite slow (swapper and a2sd)...I might have to try this one out (though I heard SHv3 had many things not working...).
Thanks for the contribution anyway .
@Shaquiel Harris, NO BT works as of yet. JAC is getting close I guess but NO HERO BUILD HAS BT YET!
Working on taking some screenies for you guys...
be posting in a few...
hmm seems interesting.
wonder how this one works.

Here you see I have changed the background to one I liked from another build. I also have installed the Retro Clock widget, Weather Channel widget, and a few apps (AndroZip, Last.fm, and I really can't remember which else). Right now I currently have about 10MB free (not running apps from SD)
I don't see the bluetooth is working? What do you mean "fully functional"? is the led work, too !?

Ok, I just tried Bluetooth for the first time and it does not turn on. This was my mistake. I do not use it and did not ever try it. I may grab JACHero latest build and mod it the same way (if bluetooth does work in that build) if anyone really wants it. Personally, I never needed it.
As for the LED, as with most Hero builds currently out, the LED does not work. If someone can point to one that does, let me know.
not feeling the "ophone" icons.
but everything else seems legit.
but really isn't fully "functional" due to the fact there is no "rosie" which makes up pretty much the entire experience of "Hero" but good job regardless!

This is true, but every time I try to use Rosie I definitely do NOT have a fully functional phone.
I suppose I should say Fully Usable (once I get BT working anyway)

Well why would he say fully functional when indeed it isnt? and 2.63 is slow for you because your using swapper. Your supposed to make a linux swap partition and have a fat 32/ext2/3 and linux swap. 2.63 is the fastest and most reliable rom that has been made so far And well this is the rom i will stay with. I dont need bluetooth because well i dont use it kinda want LED's Though But besides that.

No,
and I can't say I've notice that on other builds I've tried. Is there somewhere you've see that? It may be part of the new MMS app (which many people are having reliability issues / not getting messages)

I have updated my original post that BT is not working. As for speed of JACHero 2.63, I'll give it a whirl now that I can easily get back to this ROM.
But I've heard "Really Fast" about a lot of ROMS running Rosie/SensUI, and have not yet been convinced by any of those claims.
The important bit - get it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=551119
Note - this is a link to the corresponding thread on the Dream forum. All new versions and change log info can be found there (because I'm getting fed up with maintaining two threads )
What is this?
This is a new build of the stock browser, that incorporates the multitouch code from Cyan's build, along with some additional code of my own, primarily intended to make zooming less painful, and looking to gradually move towards an experience as rich as the Hero browser.
What does it do that's new, then?
* option in settings to disable the obnoxious on-screen zoom buttons that usually appear whenever you so much as breathe on the screen (turn off "Visual Zoom Controls" in the menu to get rid of them - off by default).
* when Visual Zoom Controls is disabled, option in settings to add zoom in and zoom out to the menu (although this will bump over options that are normally on the main menu to the "More..." list)
* NEW! Double tap to zoom! Double-tap the screen to zoom in. When it gets too ginormous (about four zooms) a subsequent double-tap will zoom all the way out. (Feedback request: I'm interested in what people think of the double-tap to zoom. Does it go one zoom too far before zooming all the way out?)
* As requested by fastludeh22, there is now an option for "Mobile Web View". Enabled by default. Turn it off and you'll get the full desktop version of website such as YouTube etc that autodetect mobile devices.
What do I need to run it?
It was written to run on Cyanogen builds, originally. Others have tried it on JACxROM and other ROMs with multitouch in the kernel. I personally see no reason why it wouldn't run on pretty much any Cupcake ROM, although I haven't tried it, and obviously Cyan's multitouch stuff wouldn't work without the kernel mods.
Is this the same browser that's been doing the rounds on this board lately? What's with the version 1 stuff
Yes. I've reset the version numbering and given it a name (i.e. BetterBrowser). So this is BetterBrowser v1 (which comes after Loccy's Browser v5 ). Next versions will be 1.1, 1.2, etc. It was getting a bit silly going up a version number every time I added a single menu option!
Future improvements I'm hoping to do:
* Full screen option
* Hero-style lairy Mac-type bookmarks
* Maintain zoom level across pages on same site (so it doesn't suddenly zoom back to 1:1 level when you browse to the next page).
* tidy up what behind the scenes is, unfortunately, some really kludgey code!
Thanks go to:
* Cyan, obviously, without whom none of this would have been possible, and whose ROMs continue to break new levels of awesomeness
* makethetick, who pointed me in the right direction for the code in the first places
Raspberries go to certain individuals in this thread.
*sigh* if only we had multitouch on 32A. I dream of the day
PS for asking a stupid question =x.. but how do i push this browser into the rom? i love cm roms and having an additional feature like tis 1 is always superb!
Something like this from your PC should do the trick:
adb remount
adb shell
cd /system/app
mv Browser.apk Browser.original
exit
adb push Browser-cyan-pn-mod2.apk /system/sd/app_s/Browser.apk
okay thnx! will get back to you once i try it out
OKay so I've try it out.. the zoom is gone! Nice and Thank you.. So this browser doesn't have zoom functions?
it does have the zoom function but you zoom by pinching the screen verticly, like the iphone.
btw works ok so far just flashed it.
Oh, but mine can't seem to zoom tho, even with the pinching method did you follow the steps given by Loccy also?

if you did not make a backup, just go and reflash the rom and you will get it back.
OKay Thanx! Everything's working fine now . Thank you.
Wow this is great, thanx..now can you make it stop refreashing on reopen and im desparate for a setting to lock it in landscape (somewhere i read that there used to be a setting like this in earlier version, maybe someone could copy code# from there)

Afraid not - that's an Android thing not a browser. When it refreshes, it's because Android has let the browser drop out of memory to use it for another app. So when you go back to the browser it's as if you're loading it from scratch all over again. At that point if it didn't refresh all you'd have would be a blank page.

That, I could probably do.
Is there no way this browser can be used on 32A? Even with the new kernel and all? Really LOVE the functions listed down
Loccy said:
I've built a new version from Cyan's source that adds a menu item so that you can turn off the (in my opinion) obnoxious zoom controls that jump up in your face whenever you so much as breathe on the screen. Obviously, if you're running a Cyan ROM, you'll still have his multitouch zoom in and out. If you're not running a Cyan ROM, you zoom in and out from the menu options.

Nope. Not yet. That's the next thing I'm planning, though, although if I get time today I might quickly add another settings option so you can enable/disable the zoom buttons in the menu (some people in the Dream forums like them, others not, so it makes sense to make it a user config option). Multitap to zoom is a bit less trivial though and will have to wait until later on in the week when I'm not doing my day job!
Bounce for new version (see edited first post for details).

I don't know why everyone keeps asking for videos because unless there is a huge graphical difference (ie themes or change in the likescreen, statusbar, rosie, etc) then it's going to be the same as any other Hero rom out there.
In regards to speed and stability, that's mostly up to you the user. You configure the user.conf to your liking and use whatever apps you want. The more apps you have installed and more widgets you have on your screen the slower and more unstable your phone is. Also the speed of your sdcard could have a factor in it as well. Other factors could be included as well but the bottom line is that most Hero roms are identical to eachother and pretty much work the same way. Any obvious differences that are easily noticed visually is mostly themed.
I say backup what you have with nandroid/bart/switchrom/whatever and try it. Coming from JacHeroSki2.2, I'm noticing that this hasn't given me a single reboot and seems much more stable. But it's pointless to make a video of it because it looks the same. But... if someone would like to indulge us in a video of an MLIGN rom (which will be obsolete after every update by the way) than go for it! It's just my opinion that it's a waste of time.

The reason why i do videos is to show the improvements from the previous ROM.. Other people can then compare then if one of my ROMs suck and its BC of APK editing then i know to not use them.. I'm just trying to show them what is in store for them when i release it.

Glad you started a new thread. the other turned into a kindergarten fight on muscle relaxers
Didnt go to 2.5.5, but Im updating to this now because ive had trouble with gps.
Keep it up man. About now, your one of the only ones left here I have any respect for..... no matter what it is you do with your roms.

I hope not. Ive seen nothing good come of the ram hack on G1's. The phone is only meant to use a set amount of ram, and all it does it become extremely unstable when added. My experience with the ram hack i get nothing but reoots from phone going to sleep and even just sitting the home button.

well i think he was talking abt recording a video abt his new rom that has the 10mb ram hack in his last thread but idk if this one has it. we have to wait till he releases it n the changelog to see.......
hmmm i got a problem.. i dont get missed call notification on 2.5.5
...Never mind it works now.. it wasnt last night.
And to whoever was askin about the LED's they do work just download the missed call app.
Request/Suggestion
On the next and upcoming versions, could you change the gmail icon? It would be easier for those of us who use two email addresses. In my case, I like to glance at the notification bar to see if I have gmail email aka my business email, but now I can't tell because the HTC mail and gmail notification icons are the same. Thanks bud.
P.S Correct me if I'm wrong, but it was you who posted the twitpic with the purple/jester rosie, right?
EDIT: ON 2.55 I noticed, the browser can get very laggy

still its the BEST eclair 2.1 sense so far.. will dump everything else and start with this one...bluetooth will be fixed and cam drivers have been hacked "stolen" allthoe its still not included... i belive withind 1 week or 2 the camera drivers will be public
thanks for the port. will try.
works a lot better than previous expresso build, but still not ready for general use ;-)
what I've seen:
Email doesn't work: keeps on FC (showstopper for me)
caller application has issues
sync works
people work
thx, for the port, this will be a sweet rom once it works correctly
Pretty good rom and port. A lot of things still needs to be working before I will consider using this daily. First of all, the default messaging application is not able to find contacts when using the "to" field. You are however still able to send, you just need to use the people application. Google Sky does not work either, and I suspect a couple of others not working either.
Other than that it works pretty good. Some of the animations are VERY clunky while others are very smooth. Window prompt popups are very slow while scrolling etc. is very fast.
I look forward to trying this rom out when it's more usable. The camera drivers should also be out next week.
Thanks for the port
Hi, the rom seems to work pretty well, but definitely isn't ready for every-day use yet. Some nice new features (e.g. enhanced clock), and I really like the new lockscreen and the new homescreen makes more sense - Always bothered me how the menu launcher was so much smaller that the phone one, when there are so many ways of launching the dialer, and I use the menu much more anyway.
Shame about the bubbles, I guess...
[Edit] You don't need to worry about formatting the memory card, btw.
This is fantastic news!!! Looking forward to try this ROM when it gets updated!!!

Great rom. Looking forward to any updates.
Can't get a USB connection on this rom though (No HTC synch, No memory card mounting on PC)
flashed this rom without sd partition.. nice work..
cant wait for cam and BT drivers
I thought the bubbles signified... glass enclosures... oh well, by the looks of it, it looks really nice. But I'm sure people will be surfing this thread looking for the words "general use = OK" and head to the download.
Hello again.
I couldent help my self, had to try it even when i knew that it has a lot of FC's
But i must say, this ROM is really...REALLY nice!!! It has great potential, and the eyecandy never stops, im really looking forward to this!
Is it possible to add some more IME launguage's? I would really love to see Danish for the HTC keyboard
Too bad that the original phone app doesnt work yet
Just to help others before they choose to install
On my device following things doesnt work:
Market - Wont get connection
People search - Has a wierd bug where the letters dissapears
People - Is really slow
Sense - Will often force close if you have the big calendar
Phone - Force close on number press
Messaging - Cant choose contacts in "to:"
Email - Loops a force close when try to open
Mount USB - wont connect
Cam - no drivers yet
Bluetooth - no drivers yet
Teeter - Force close No G-sensor drivers installed
Generally performance issues with a lot of lag
What works:
Tether
Wifi
Mobile networks
Browser
Google Maps
Phone (Partly)
What i could wish for :
Danish IME for the keyboard
Danish locale
Hope this helps to answer a lot of questions from you all.
Kindly regards from Thomas.
Yes, this ROM need some work .. but it is damn fine ROM.
Looks really nice
Hoping this is to be the UI for HTC Bravo
Really like the scene modes, where you have diffrent desktops for different uses.
Thanks for your effort
Slick rom excited about new updates. This will be great once it's refined. Thanks for the hard work guys.
I found a guide that mentions basic Sense porting to another Sense device. I tried this with this Wildfire S ROM for a few reasons:
--I prefer the "standard" HTC Sense as found on any other device (ie. Black status bar, black apps, etc.)
--I wanted to see how well it'd run
--I wanted to see if there'd be any problems with anything
After following the above guide, I notice only the following bugs:
--Camera is upside down
--Rosie keeps force closing because of forced landscape orientation so I have to use an alternate launcher
--Lockscreen is always in Portrait no matter what
--Keypad backlights don't turn on
--Facebook button doesn't work (duh)
--(New)GPS doesn't work - need to mess with GPS libs when I have more time
--(New)The FM Radio app's graphics are messed up
To try and fix the Rosie problem, I tried copying over the Rosie.apk and Rosie.odex from the Chacha's 2.3.5 OTA, but no dice, the system doesn't even see it.
Anyone have any tips on how I could fix any of the above? I'm no dev, and I only tried this for (basically) the fun of it to see how it'd turn out and my "experience", so to speak, only goes as far as swapping files here and there - I felt like the Development forum was the best place to post this. Apologies if it isn't.
good attempt! nice to see to back into work. May be some developers can help you out.
I would like to apologize first, as it is 08:19 in the morning and I'm already drunk. lol.
Well, let's start with the easy bits:
1. --Keypad backlights don't turn on
Mainly the thing is that the Wildfire S ROM does not have support (or it is not activated) for a physical keyboard; therefore the need for backlight is redundant. To fix this you will either have to manually add the code lines or un-comment them. I suggest talking with adlx or xdbg since both of them have implemented this feature in the two custom ROMs.
2. --Facebook button doesn't work (duh)
As above, the ROM doesn't know (or doesn't want to know) about the physical keyboard. Same suggestions as above.
3. Landscape/portrait issues.
Well. The main problem here is the android system. By definition it detects the longest size on the display and sets it as the height. Therefore you'll have a tough time fixing the standard display to landscape. As above, I suggest speaking with the devs that worked on these roms and implement the ChaCha kernel files into the Wildfire ROM.
Aaaaaand that's about it I guess. I wish you good luck!
Drunk, this early??
Good effort!

Nice!
For the backlight, maybe you could try using system/lib/hw/lights.msm7k.so from the stock Chacha rom, or even from SuperOSR...
You cannot copy/paste an apk+odex file, it will probably never work. Try deodexing it first, then copy it.
I guess this is the right place to ask

I copied lights.msm7k.so from SuperOSR, and the keyboard backlight works now.
I used an application on my laptop called xUltimate to deodex both this ROM and Chacha 1.54 stock, and the only things that wouldn't deodex are the Lockscreen and Rosie :/
Camera appears right-way round/up if a 3rd party camera app is used
Additional bugs I've noticed after trying it out a bit again:
--GPS doesn't work - I'll mess around with gps libs tomorrow when I have a bit more time
--The FM radio app's graphics are messed up
For gps try also to use stock chacha libsensors (or something like that)
the right names for the files are:
/system/lib/hw/gps.chacha.so
/system/lib/hw/sensors.chacha.so
try using the one from SuperOSR.
Is this ROM going to be official released anytime soon because I am working on a ROM from another HTC device aswell and was wondering if you needed any assistance on final touches?

This would interest me greatly, as I really love the "standard" sense and was quite disappointed with the amount of white/light colours used in the ChaCha's version, and how it just doesn't seem to fit in very well at all with the HTC family. Would it be possible to use the Desire Z's rosie? As that supports landscape natively.

Tbh, I haven't done anything on this for a while because I started flashing CM7/SuperOSR.
From what I can remember, the following things wern't working:
-Lockscreen - Always in Portrait, won't rotate
-Rosie - Force-close loop, had to replace with an alternate launcher
-GPS - Icon doesn't appear in the status bar
-FM/Dailer/maybe others - Graphics messed up due to forced landscape resolution
That's all I managed to check before I got caught up in crackflashing XD
I am by no means a dev - all this was done by replacing files in a Wildfire S ROM with ones from SuperOSR/stock Chacha

Precisely why I tried this in the first place - I wasn't expecting all this white, which doesn't make the Chacha feel like an HTC as much to me - I already tried the Desire Z's Rosie - while it did work, all the icons were huge (because of it being scaled for HDPI screens). Dunno about widgets.
Once I find it amongst all the crap I have on my laptop, I could upload it if anyone might have an idea how to fix what's left and to see what else is broken?
