Well its that time. I'm releasing a Eris/Hero ROM. Presenting BiffHero Beta2, there was a beta1, it was broke . This is based off of Kingklick92's Eris2g1. I removed some things that didn't need to be there (bluetooth and stock.apk) I also replaced the google apps with the CM5 build and replaced the kernel with the latest CM kernel (including low mem killer patches, 576mhz overclock etc). Also added a better boot animation. Gotta say, this thing is fast. I'm quite impressed. Please see the credits and post boot setup below. Please not this is very much a work in progress. IF ANYONE CAN GET GOOGLE TO SYNC, YOU WOULD BE MY "HERO"
I'm not a dev, nor do I claim to be. Anyone could do what i'm doing, i'm just choosing to share it. If your phone explodes... NOT IT

*Calls

WHAT DOESN'T

Let it sit for 15min before you touch it. thats it for now
If you like my "work" buy cyanogen or anyone on his team a beer... you're free to visit any of the ad sponsors on my site as well.
Thanks to the community for putting up with mah "devvin"
awesome..... m gonna try this soooooon on my G1...!!!
Will definitely give this a try, Biff.
----------------------------------
[UPDATE]
Not bad, Biff! This is by far the most usable 2.1 Hero ROM I have used on the MyTouch. The speed certainly surpasses that of most ported Hero roms. I'm not one to do video reviews or anything, but maybe once we get GAPPS working I can do a write up review with screenies.
Wish I could help you with syncing the GAPPS, but don't have the knowledge or time to spend on it (especially while sitting here at work! )
I'm looking forward to the development of this ROM. It would be awesome to have a *real, fast and stable* hero ROM.
* Gapps
*Bluetooh
*CAMCORDER
Not working, no thanks, will wait.
Have u tried ext2/3/4 for google apps
Thats pretfy much a requirement on sense roms on g1 nowadays

I tried upgrading to ext4 and reflashed. Still a no-go for GAPPS. It gives the error that it "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server." Even though I'm attempting sync over wifi..
Could it be because he replaced the gapps with the cm5 build?

Hey guys,
this sounds quite interesting, since i like the sense framework.
Could someone try to install flash lite:
apk is here: http://www.mediafire.com/?ix2iwdm4otl
(found on http://androidforums.com/motorola-droid/67244-flash-player-flash-lite-apks.html)
We know flash 10.1 wont work ... but since flash lite worked on the donut hero roms, maybe this one runs also.

i gave ur rom a try ... flash worked for me out-of-the-box ... seems like flash lite is already implementet in that eris rom. Great! gaaps forced closed for me and camera preview pic is gropped.
Biff, I am so mad that you dont have every single thing working in this rom, if its not fixed in the next 20 minutes i am not going to use it anymore and i know how sad you would be about that. Haha come on guys! Biff is doing this for fun, and obviously its not done yet. SO QUIT *****ING! He doesnt have to do this for anyone (including his perfectly working Froyo ROM) like he said, if you dont like it, go somewhere else. HE NEVER SAID GAPPS WERE WORKING!
P.S Hey Biff, Gapps arent working

I've not had much time to Do much to this rom, But Calendar is working now for me ( Was getting error's ).
Change log will follow when I get more time to play with it.
as always, Be sure to thank Cyanogen if you enjoy this Rom.
Now, If you encounter an issue with the Flipclock widget, Don't delete!!!
Just reboot the Phone & it will load correctly, same for other widgets as well.

I had this issue as well. You need to actually unzip the CM-4.1.11.1 ROM and locate the HTC-IME.apk and install. This HTC keyboard will then work after using this .apk

Ah, the one I tried to install was the HTC-IME.apk from the CM-4.0.4 stable ROM, and also the one from the SDK. I may try the one from 4.1.11.1 a little later, but when I tried the other two, it kept saying it would replace a file that already exists. I tried uninstalling using AppManager, but whenever I opened AppManager it would just load and load and not actually show me what was installed. After switching back to CM-4.0.4, AppManager and the HTC-IME work fine.
I'll try again with the 4.1.11.1 ROM and the HTC-IME.apk from the 4.1.11.1 ZIP and post back with my results.
EDIT: I am still having trouble with AppManager, but at this point I could care less about that. I did get 4.1.11.1 installed again, and got the HTC_IME to work using this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=558134
Is the App Manager no working in this build? Please post issues regarding this Rom in Cyanogen thread if you are using his Build.
If using mine Please Let me know and I'll try and get it Fixed for you.

That's Really Odd, Did you Format you Fat32 ext2 /3 Partition.
Be sure to do this, Wipe, Flash. Reboot & Format is my Rule of thumb.
oh the only thing ive done was wipe and flashed my bad lol
Fast, seems stable.. Appmanager doesnt work with 1.6! Very Nice. Have to download the apppack next. Great work, keep it up!!!
I've tried everything still getting bootloops
Sorry I don't understand, what's the difference between this and cyanogen's own release?
I've been running 4.1.11.1 (with enochx theme) for the last few days and it is by far the best ROM out. Who needs Hero bloatware when this is available?
Well if you would have downloaded it you would have saw the Apps.
I Reverted the Calendar to an older build as I got FC.
As for now, I've not had time to do much to it.

Didn't say it was for 32a, I've really not had time to play with it, Just repacked it with tons of apps.
Any problem switching to this from JACxROM 1.4r3?
I have a2sd, partitions and compcache enabled, will everything run just fine? I'm asking because I found somewhere in the xROM post to be careful when using a2sd from other sources...

UPDATED
PLEASE WIPE DALVIK CACHE.SYSTEM WIPE. AND IF THE FAILS UID MATCH UNDER OTHER IN RECOVERY
V2---------im sorry in my rush to throw this out i kinda skipped some stuff and left old meta's in so that caused problems. this is completely redone with all the apps working, NO FC's. no install problems. and a whole new kernel variant from gumbo. (idk which build though). i tried to fix every reported issue. this will stay a trend i promise . any issues just report it and i will find out why. a wipe is recommended unless you want to try flashing over the first version. idk what will happen then. ok but here is V2-----------
V3---------
took expresso out as it caused problems. some people are getting and some are getting strange results. this is considered a beta until V4 or 5 so enjoy the speed and everything. tell me how it goes!-----
V4---------created a rom based on darchs new V2 legend. as of now it is 50/50 working not working. people have told me that pressing wait and then restarting the phone works. or just pressing wait instead of FC. anyways its the same gbhil kernel that is the fastest i have used. lets hope this fixes the FC for some. expresso is included automatically. i will change later for others-------
everything works. any problems just comment.
I have had like 20 requests for this so ill post a thread on it. i would put it in the damage customs thread but i dont want it to get lost .
so basically it is Darchs Legend release and a variant of gumbos kernel with alot of extras i added. like expresso and some tweaks to icons and stuff. you will need to do a wipe and install unless you have darchs legend. this contains the legend frameworks that is why. i also made this because my fav apps are friendstream and news.
all i did was copy and paste. ALL credit goes to Damage, Gbhil, and Darchstar. their incredible work created this rom.
please refer to these threads for issues
Darchs-http://http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=645491
this has the best of both worlds. hope you like.
here is stock sense just flash it over top this. i stole this from darch so all his work not mine.-- http://www.4shared.com/file/240585860/71735a12/stocksense-signed.html

CAUTION:
This is not recommended for the ave everday user/know nothing/no time to fudge with my phone crowd...
that being said, now for the fun stuff
i take no credit for any of this other than typing(incdoes leaked most of these port bases). i am just posting links to roms i found in inc forum with the instructions for porting to evo from incs blog. just trying to initiate some more rom development. i am still trying to decide which i will be working on...but this is open source so i just put it here for evo users/devs to view and get porting

HOW TO PORT INC ROM TO EVO
-excerpt from incdoes blog-
Okay, to run an INC ROM on your EVO would be simple. There will be a few broken 'stuff' e.g. bt, wifi etc... but easy fixes!
First you will need the INC ROM you desire to run on your EVO. Now, if its an "INC Sense ROM" you will need a "EVO Sense Kernel" and if it's an AOSP ROM then you will need a AOSP kernel.
Now there will be a few things you will need to replace on the INC ROM to make it run on your EVO:
~We are going to use a sense 2.2 rom as an example~
"so grab these files from any EVO sense ROM, preferable stock 2.2 EVO"
- boot.img (for your phone to bootup)
- system/usr (for buttons)
- system/lib/hw (for lights)
- system/lib/modules (for wifi)
- system/etc/vold.stab (for sdcard readable)
- build.prop (for market and LED's fix)
please note: some prop files include different edits that can break market/data/network/LED's... but then again, easy fixes!
Now you have an INC Sense ROM and 'all the files listed above pulled from an EVO Sense rom, you will have to add/replace the files pulled from the EVO ROM into the INC ROM, sign the .zip and flash (via recovery).
Should/will bootup if its based on the same firmware i.e. 2.2 INC ROM and 2.2 EVO ROM.
DISCLAIMER:
I am not responsible for you bricking your wife's/son's/boss's/aunt's/grandpa's/girlfriend's/fiance's/mother's/etc....evo
good porting

happy flashing

So im flashing a nexus rom right now, that i switched out all the stuff + threw in a cyanogen kernel.
If this thing bricks...
___________
UPDATE: It booted up, but it doesnt register any touch on the touch screen. LOL.
Hmmm maybe if.. Any ideas guys? I switch some other stuff around too. Maybe i can figure this out...
UPDATE: I flashed netarchy universal kernel and now the touch works, i cant get any signal, i dunno what stuff needs to be switch out from GSM to CDMA.
Wifi WORKS! I dont have a keyboard for some reason, so i cant enter my password to test it but it looks to be fine. And since i have no internet connection i cant get astro to install one from my SD haha.
I flashed over sky raider 3.3 final and every thing is perfect. Theres a uncommon sense patch which I also ported because I remember reading that on the hd Rom the ego didn't like the 4 signal bars. Only thing not exactly right is the camera. It doesn't have the capture button but I can take pics by holding a finger on the screen. Video is a no go due to not having the nature button. This Rom is the smoothest I've used and I'm a flash a holic so I've used them all.
So if I use the flash patch do I need to do any of the other stuff listed in the op(replacing files)?
Sweet Magnus, may have to get back to you details of what i find wrong. But i got a porject due next week for school. I have to record us BMXing this weekend. Then make an edit. If i get that sweet alone time in the eveing, i'll be sure happy to port all three and give findings.

@nammit: im not sure yet, im going to try messing with wifi once i get apps2sd working.. i haven't really messed with wifi drivers or camera or anything yet.. but you could try using a cm build for the drivers... i used some files from cm6 for the port over.. mine is also legend based, figured would be the best idea lol
my first priority is possibly apps2sd since i have about 15mb available when its completely stripped down
i will post a link up soon if anoe wants to take a look.. could use all the help i can get if you guys dont mind...? im not greedy lol

haha thanks man wouldn't know half the stuff i know if it wasn't for this place!!
@darius99: yes lol place all the files on sd, the mtd remove file is only if you want to get rip of the custom partition layout, so you dont need it untill you decide to do that.
but be sure to follow the steps exactly, be sure to wipe multiple times lol
just flashed and booted.
wifi isnt working and i dont have a file manager so thats basically where my testing ends for now.lol
looking forward to future updates
yeah nothing works lol im trying to fix wifi now, hopefully i can get apps2sd working than i can really start working on this thing

You get those working and I'll jump on the boat testing it. Got to have my wifi and spaces, ya know!
So, I have done plenty of research and come across dead links and scary ads. And I have been flashing and flashing.. with no success. First, let me explain why i'm even typing this... because Miui, in my 2 day experience with it has been the cleanest rom ever, and i love it BUT......
I started with miui.com but since the Miui Devs haven't made a stable release for HTC Evo Shift they don't have a rom available to download there. Then i went to miui.us which was filled with roms! the only versions of Miui for HTC Evo Shift available are 2.3.23 and 2.3.30 and this would seem okay but unfortunately neither of those versions work correctly. And they don't contain just simple bugs. the PHONE app doesn't work unless 3g data is turned off (When trying to receive calls a "com.android.phone has stopped working" message will appear and it will when trying to call as well. after that it resets mobile network). i've been looking everywhere but i can't find a fix that will work.
I found a fix on a thread that promised to do the trick by replacing "framework.jar" in the /system/framework .zip file for installing. But i tried twice and came across the same problem
I just want a stable version of Miui for my precious HTC Evo Shift. Miui Pyromod ROM fixes the phone problem and it works on daily bases just fine but it still lacks stability. I WANT A PERFECT MIUI PORT FOR SPEEDY.
...and this is when you come in:
Do you guys have any links(more researching), ideas(ways to fix the phone app problem), will to help, or even fix the rom for us:laugh:?!
I have the last MIUI.us release for the shift with the phone app fix applied on my computer, I can try to upload it later for you.
Edit: I found it on my windows partition and starting to upload now, will be a minute though because I am downloading gigs worth of stuff at the same time.
should be 2.3.30 with the fix

Lol!
Lol...
The extended settings mod gives u some extra tweaks to play with. You flash the overscroll zip through recovery like a rom, then install the apk.
The apps name will show up as miui control panel

There's also PyroMod (its 2.1.20 I believe, it didn't have the phone problem) on ROM Manager, one of my personal favorites.... I've been trying to get a more functional MIUI v4 working on the Shift but alas I have not gotten it working yet... I'm still trying tho. I love MIUI!
PyroSucks!

Yeah it's on the back burner right now, I gotta finish other projects but I'll be going back to it soon... I probably will need help, I've already made three attempts and it never gets past the first lock screen.

I can always use testers gonna finish up on my MotoBlur ICS ROM and try and get back to MIUI V4. Or v5 whichever I can get working. We need a 4.0+ MIUI ROM... the EVO has like ten of them. We have one that was a WIP.
I'm so lonely!
has anyone experienced roms that will not send texts if they're over 160 characters? i know miui turns them directly into mms and it doesn't cause any problems. and i remember a rom gave me an option to "split sms" and it fixed it, but i dunno!

Well, if you want a solution for any rom, you can use GoSMS and in settings just check the "split messages" box
I think there was also a zip that you could flash to fix this somewhere...but it mightve been for certain android versions only
