After doing my own work bringing the MoDaCo rom up to date with the Sprint MR, and a LOT of reading and researching, I'd like to start work on my own custom Hero rom. While speed and performance will be important factors I certainly want to maintain and/or improve functionality.
I have my own general vision for what I want to do, however I'd also like to get some community inputs on what you would like to see in a custom ROM.
If you can, please share 5 things you would like to see implemented. They can be features you've seen/liked from other roms or something you haven't seen done yet. I'm looking for some new ideas.
This ROM will be based on android 1.5 not messing with 1.6 or 2.0 until an official release is made by HTC/Sprint.
one great thing i would love to see included is a simplified task managment system. i am running task killer. but if it were possible to incorperate into the rom the ability to have a time limit on certin apps when not used that they would just stop.
The main thing that annoys me to no end right now would be to make predictive text allowable in all search forms, password forms and address boxes in browsers.
Would also love to see more functions from the locked screen like S2Unlock from WM. The ability to preview texts, emails and missed calls from the locked screen and either dismiss them or respond to them directly from the lock screen and have it open up the app that is needed like the SMS app/email app/Phone dialer after unlocking.
Edit: Oh and remove the vibrate from the dialer which Sprint added on the MR update. Why would they add this with no way to turn it off? SOME people DO wanna try and save their battery life ya know?? Stupid.
Something other than a minimally-modified stock ROM.

So both of you want applications for the most part, that's not a rom, that's something you can suggest in te developer section.
As far as something I'd like to see in a rom... A modified Kernel with SetCPU support would be wonderful
The ability to rotate the home screen to landscape mode, please.

Maybe the second request is more of a software request but he did say "anything". However, the second one I believe is more ROM related as there seems to be something in the ROM that does not want to allow predictive text in certain forms.

Agreed.
I posted this in Modaco's thread and I'll post it here too. Email from Mike, dev for SetCPU:
There is a feature in the Sprint HTC Hero's kernel that prevents SetCPU from working. It likes to constantly set the CPU speed itself, and SetCPU can't override the kernel itself. From analyzing the source, I believe this is fixable. Are you using a custom ROM? If so, try asking your ROM developer to compile a kernel without the "PERFLOCK" feature in the kernel off. Because I don't have a Hero myself to test, I can't verify that this will work.
I don't know if the setcpu idea would work well with the cdma hero, one of the times I've wifi tethered I witnessed an overheat LED warning, thought nothing of it until I checked my battery info, which was pretty much beyond egg cooking temperatures, phone then force rebooted without warning... Not sure if that has to do with things inside the Kernal like mentioned, but it seems like overclocking the cpu might just fry it quickly with the hero, underclocking could be a different story though..
Also.. It's hard for me to say because I'm very interested to see what HTC will be bringing to the plate with Sense 2.0, but I wouldn't mind more interchangable/ custom themes, or modifications to the look and feel to Sense itself, or like what was said above, something more than just a tweaked version of stock. Landscape home screens would also be a nice addition to the Hero, I often attempt this when tired, wouldn't mind it actually working for me.

the rotating home screen would be neat to show off
going to look into portrait mode in sense ui since i'm curious in seeing how it works too. any more ideas?
Do you think there is any way to optimize the htc_ime.apk? I hate getting keyboard lags when typing a text. That is the only thing about this phone that I could say that I hate.
Also don't want to beat a dead horse, but I wonder if there is any way to get the new maps to work with 1.5. Coming from the Dream forum, I know that they got it working on 1.6 (before it was released to 1.6) by tricking the app into thinking that 1.6 was actually 2.0. I'm not sure exactly how this was done but from what I remember, it didn't sound extremely difficult.
Then again, I'm not a dev so I don't know what it would entail.
Don't know if this is more of an app or what, but how about a way to change the frame colors from grey to one of serveral colors.
How about this, for the browser make it so I can type something into the address bar and if doesn't have a .com at the end of it. It then will give a Google search. Kinda of odd its not already like that it would keep googles numbers way high
The keyboard Lag would be great to fix and the rotating screen would make this phone even better than what it is. How about finding a way to increase the internal memory we start with. I don't know if that is possible but it sure would be nice to be able to have more to start with. I use Apps2Sd but still lose memory when I install apps. I am still real confused about this, but I am about 20 meg better than I was before I used Apps2Sd. I saw a video from unlockr.com where he was setting up apps2sd on a G1 and when he finished it showed the added memory from the ext3 partition in the Sd card and internal memory area in settings. he went from about 45 meg to over 500 meg after he finished setting it up.
please no hideous blue themes or annoying boot sounds
Is the ability to choose which apps open (or don't open) on startup something that can be incorporated into a rom?

i would love to see the time limit thing, and maybe an automatic reboot function, and maybe a recovery system IN the Phones GUI not in its own Partition or whatever.
So we should be seeing Honeycomb 3.1 for our transformers in the near future.
Google only showed a new task switcher and adjustable widgets as two new features. Shouldn't this be called Honeycomb 3.0.1? I'm not terribly impressed... I hope they fix some major force close issues and general bugs in the next release....
As for task/memory management, I wish they added a feature that allows us to exclude apps from ever being closed. Going back to a browser and having it reload 5 tabs EVERYTIME consumes a fair amount of bandwidth and time.

I feel the same about the update, seems very underwhelming. I wanted to see new games etc but that was non existent.

We are already at 3.0.1, but I agree with you doesn't seem like too much though I do like the new features.
I don't know what the heck google is thinking, but they need to focus on building a STABLE Android OS and really dumping resources into getting apps up to par with apple.
Instead they focus on remote light switches and facial recognition gimmicks... if quality apps don't start coming soon, it won't matter what flavor of desert they put out as it will be weak.

I'm sure they don't... I'm not sure who's giving them ideas like this, but when I upgrade my browser on my PC, it's not a Windows 7.1 update... with google, something as trivial as resizing widgets (which has been possible via 3rd party apps for a while) seems to qualify as a substantial upgrade.
Oh well, whatever keeps people excited.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA Premium App
Stop and think for a moment. They are releasing a new build of an OS. I'm sure that the resizing of Widgets is not the only thing they are doing. I would be willing to bet there will be plenty of fixes in the update.

Yes, little things. This should be a 3.0.1 release. The USB host thing... my Archos was using USB devices and it was running froyo! LOL
I'm looking forward to 3.1 anyways. I hope it's more stable than 3.0.

Some notable updates
- An updated home button, while still appearing the same, will now take the user to the most recently used home screen panel when pressed in an app instead of always taking the user to the center panel. (my pet peeve so far).
- PTP will allow users to connect a digital camera directly to a tablet so that the tablet can import all of the camera's photos.
- Web pages can now be saved for offline viewing, and the browser also offers faster zooming and support for hardware accelerated plug-ins.
A simple feature request. Allow us to choose which folders we wish to display in the Gallery. I'm unable to use it as all the album art from my music as well as bitmaps from apps really clog it up.

I think it's fairly good. USB host thing is cool, and resizable Widgets and a better browser good too. Also "UI transitions are improved throughout the system and across the standard apps. The Launcher animation is optimized for faster, smoother transition to and from the Apps list." So should overall feel smoother and no ui lag.
Honeycomb's pretty solid as it is and with these changes even better. Not sure why people are so disappointed really, what did you expect to be added?

This blocks music appearing in the official app. PowerAMP and other 3rd party apps can't find music on the microsd in Honeycomb.

I really hope they fixed the market app. That is my biggest pet peeve. You scroll down for 30 seconds, click on an app to check it out, click "back", and now you are back at the top, have to scroll way down again. When trying to find apps to install it is a huge pain.

I'm pretty sure 3.1 will support hardware acceleration, that to me is a HUGE improvement. Flash rendering should be a whole lot better. I already think Honeycomb is a very solid OS and the new features are exciting. As long as they keep rolling out updates I'll be happy.
I must admit what was announced at IO was underwhelming, but who cares? Are you used to Apple esque keynotes that praise "new" features that have been available on other OS's for years?
I have found that 3rd party apps are lackluster in their scrolling mostly. Just wondering if anyone has noticed any difference so far? I know they said that list scrolling would be improved but im wondering if its still completely dependent on developers to use Mango coding to their advantage or whether Mango inherently improves. Eg. IMDB--app is great but it still suffers from choppy/laggy scrolling throughout the interface. Anyone?
I noticed the same issue as well, i was pretty stoked to get smooth scrolling, haha
I thought the apps had to be re-compiled and re-submitted for them to see that improvement? Maybe I'm wrong. Either way, all the apps I just tested were very smooth/responsive - including IMDB.

They could always be coded more efficiently, but Mango is bringing OS wide improvements to this. Check out the keynote day 2 video at Mix11 this year around the 1:02:00 mark I believe.

The difference is going to be profound, especially since smooth scroll and responsiveness will be present while things load in the background now.

Fast forward to 17:54 to see the feature:

Definitely smoother, even with the same apps as before the update. Twitter apps are noticeably smoother when scrolling, and there's less lag when they're grabbing new data.
Everything is much faster. Love it.
BTW, is it only me or did they remove the animation when going to the start screen? I miss it.

Certain apps now scroll wonderfully. It was like the scrolling issues never existed. Its awesome.
But not all apps do this. I guess some of them have to be rewritten or maybe some were never just optimized to begin with.
Yeah, a lot of them scroll much better just like MS claimed. A few apps however, do not get more responsive scrolling wise. Facebook and imdb are the ones I noticed.
All the other twitter apps and things that have long lists scroll perfectly though. Great great great improvement.

Have you updated to the latest Facebook app update (2.0)? Ever since that update and Mango, scrolling has been buttery smooth, and even performance overall has just been better.

Yeah I have updated it. The first section of the app is fast and smooth. But when I go to "most recent" that is where I experience the pre-mango scrolling
Hi,
I've noticed that some apps run very smooth, but others can lag for no reason.
For example Play Store. When you open Play Store and start scrolling to the bottom of the home screen (lets say 3-4 rows of apps per swipe down) it lags a lot. It's nowhere close to being smooth. Even when you're at the bottom so everything has loaded, it still isn't smooth when scrolling up and down using normal scroll speed.
Reddit is Fun is also an app that has lots of lag / stutters for me.
Does anyone else experience this?

no. i haven't yet experienced any (major) lag in any app (have Play Store obviously and Reddit is Fun installed).. currently on 1.13.401.1.. also as some apps are smooth for you and others not, i would say blame the apps, but lag and smoothness are such subjective terms that I can only say I don't see any lag.

Do you have a password manager such as LastPass installed? They can cause lag issues if you have the accessability option set to fill passwords in apps.

Well I can't really blame Play Store since it's a default app. If you don't experience such lag, it must have something to do with my device.

Thanks for your reply.
It's strange to me that the top of the line hardware can't even manage to make scrolling a default app like Play Store feel smooth. Even when viewing text comments within the Reddit is Fun app isn't always smooth. That's just scrolling text, not even loading images.
I guess I have to deal with it then. I expected more for this price range.
It's not the device. It's just poorly written apps. Compare for instance Facebook app and metal on older devices. They do the same thing but the experience is night and day. This a fairly new device so updates will come but playstore always stutters no matter the phone. It's been like that for years and I tried maaaaany devices
yes it has absolutely nothing to do with the hardware/device. like @mlodykaras said, it just poor coding.
Okay thanks for all your feedback guys!
Let's hope Google will learn how to write applications for Android correctly :silly:
Well to come back to this. The lag is just insane, there's no other way to put it. When I compare scrolling through the same text with my old Lenovo K3 Note, the U11 lags and stutters all the time while the Lenovo K3 Note doesn't stutter at all. That's just scrolling through text!
I've noticed that if you change the Interactive governor to Performance, the U11 doesn't lag anymore. But this isn't great for the CPU and for battery life of course.
Video 1 shows a 1080p 60fps Twitch stream. You can notice there are some spikes and overall it's close to the green line.
Video 2 shows the same 1080p 60fps Twitch stream. You can notice there are no spikes and overall it's not even close to the green line.
Video 3 shows the same comment thread in Reddit is Fun. I start by using the Performance governor and you can see me switch to the Interactive governor a little later. It's clear there are a ton of spikes using Interactive.
This really shouldn't be happening on such an expensive device.
I've even reverted back to stock using RUU, fresh install no restoring done. Same issues.
I have also noticed few apps other than play store. I am from India and some apps like BookMyShow & Inbox from Gmail stutters and there are always some frame drops. I tested BookMyShow in One plus 5, it runs very smoothly. Idk why it is like this and whether it'll be corrected or not.
My old debloated Galaxy S6 had smoother scrolling in apps in comparison with HTC10 and U11. HTC should adjust some kernel settings ot OS to fix this, it is very annoying. I really hope it will be fixed with Oreo update.

I don't think it would get fixed with oreo update as its not something that requires an overall new version of android.
Had it supposed to be changed, it would've changed by HTC in those 2-3 updates came out till now after the launch.
Problem with HTC is they do not take or even consider feedbacks unless there is some major major glitch.
For HTC this scrolling stutter and overblown of highlights and light sources in camera is just minor issues and they don't care about it.
On the other hand, there is google which takes every feedback seriously and tries to improve the Pixels on the software level as much as the software can.

Thx to XDA now through set it application, ive set it to 90hz for most of the time..but still there is some stuttering felt when u scroll the home screen of the launcher slowly..or the phone settings application..or gallery..sometimes chrome too..rest is smooth..can anyone suggest a fix? Also note that when I restart my device, then for 2 or 3 days it runs buttery smooth as.i wished it did constantly.. but after that the stuttering and slow animations appear through normal use..rest performance is fine during gaming and social media scrolling..but I don't like the dynamic Refresh rate switching..I wish it was set to permanent 90 Hz Instead of 120hz..

Sounds like you installed a lot of bloat on your phone. I would advise to search your app list for power hungry behaviour (always running in background, disabled battery optimizations, etc.) or even for suspicious and malicious spyware like Twitter and Facebook.
If you find such apps, remove them and try again. I'm sure the stuttering will vanish.

If I want to use the stock mui ..I'm on version 12.4 and Surya model..

I never used MIUI. I instantly flashed the custom ROM, as soon as I was allowed to. Before that, the phone was just laying around, waiting to be flashed. I have no idea what spyware this Xiaomi software has, so I refrained from using it all. That said, if you don't do extensive backups, then your data will be deleted on flash anyway, so why would I bother using the stock ROM for 7 days, just to remove it afterwards, anyway.
That said, I already heavily customized all looks, so potential screenshots wouldn't show how the custom ROM would look, instead it would only show how my personal customizations look, so no point in showing screenshots of that. Additionally, the parts that aren't customizable, like the Settings App, just looks like a stock Android 11 Settings App, I guess.
Finally, if you want to know more about OctaviOS, you can check out the thread I mentioned earlier. If you get to the first post of the thread I gave you my comment from, then there will be an explanation on OctaviOS and its feature set.

Right man..I respect that choice of yours using custom ROM..and tbh I think I'd do the same but only after some months.. I'm thinking that maybe future updates..and mui 13 next year would solve the trick..so got my fingers crossed..but when and I will flash my phone using a custom ROM..I'd definitely keep this OctaviOS in mind..thanks man
