Cause all the people are busy flashing Feeyo's rom Nathan and Villain team were just a little too late. I doubt there'll be lot of people trying the Superhero now.

Do you know if everybody likes Sense UI ?

This isn't even the ROM that is similar to it. That is coming soon
Finishing touches to the last wee niggles etc. ongoing

Exactly, Sense UI is not for everyone.
I for one love that SuperHero bring only some Sense UI bits (black notification bar, calendar, etc.) but for the rest is 90% clean Android 2.1 Eclair.
Just look at different sizes:
- SuperHero = 92MB
- ChronosDroid = 103MB
P.S. Ask an iPhone user how far he can go customizing his phone... eheheh!

Just to argue a little its not that clean, there quite a few sense apps, sure no widgets. Thats why I actually like SuperHero ROMs.
FyI clean Vanilla ROM size is ~50Mb only.

this isnt vanilla, its villainrom without rosie and htc lockscreen based on some aosp stuff, but it still has sense ui framework which allows you to use htc apps such as htcdialer and htccontacts and htc facebook sync

I bet a lot of people will try this one...it has Villain quality stamp on it.
I hope Villain team work on the cyanogenmod 5.0.7...its nice for me to be able to have the great themes out there for CM 5.0.7,the only reason why i wont try this.

can we get vanilla please because the wiimote app is not working on this which indicates its sense and it only works on vanilla. Or atleast strip the sense bits out and put in the bluetooth files needed from vanilla PLEASE. I found the rom fast

Just a little niggle but shouldn't Nathan be the one announcing his roms?just a thought

So frustrating, I get an OutOfMemory each time at startup ! Full-wiped and flashed twice, same result : at first boot I come to the lock screen, frozen, with the words "Invalid SIM card", and an OutOfMemory exception if I check logcat.

I get sim card invalid. Tried 2 times with and without sim lock. Wiped all I have, except SD. What I never needed to wipe until now.

Have you got sim lock with a pin code on??

Nathan was having a night off and decided to pot today. It seems his ROMs are so eagerly awaited that people will post them before even he gets a chance.

Hi
Big red letters on the post that's remove sim pin.......

Crashes (resets) the phone with JIT enabled a lot more than I care about, but then we were warned it could be unstable. But overall, very impressive!
I decided to go for this one because all the "drama" over on the Cronos thread spooked me a bit. Might let that one settle for a while before touching it...
EDIT: In fact it seems to be rebooting by itself now every single time it boots up, once everything has loaded. Think I'll have to disable JIT just so it's usable today.

The villain site is off line. someone could post the download link? thx

I can't make mirrors as the entire server is down just now, I think for maintenance.
I will update the twitter feed @VillainROM as soon as I hear anything about it.
I don't have a local copy of the ROM either to upload
Got loads of servers, but nothing to upload to them
Sorry folks

Seriously?
You do realize that the HTC Legend runs HTC Sense? We already have a great theme for that. It's called HTC Sense and it comes with every HTC Hero out there.

yes iknow that but i would like to have the ui in settnings and like friendstream
watch video "Hands-on with the HTC Legend and the aluminum unibody" on youtube
Any 2.1 rom should have that menu and the friendstream is an app when someone gets hold of the .apk for it then that should be possible as well.
thanks for the infO

We won't be able to theme something like FriendStream, but like mentioned above, there will be an APK for it.
Within minutes of the Legend being released we will have a system dump. It won't be long.
I am also waiting a lot for the dev's to get the ROm of the HTC Desire and Legend and adapt it for Hero!
I am so excited to get all these new features ( i don't care about the stupid pinch to see desktops, but the copy-paste , Bluetooth audio on 2.1 ROM, the new contact widgets, etc..)
Villain is really nice but still buggy and i am sure it will get really better when he will get the Legend/Bravo sources!
im hoping its soon its a really nice UI !!
I'm looking forward to this as well. Does villain have good 3d gaming? i havent tried his yet because of this.

You do know we can already copy and paste don't you? Bluetooth audio works on some 2.1 roms already and so does the new contact widget and even pinch zoom on desktop. Currently the only real thing we are missing is the friend stream.

No it does have problems with this but that's more due to the files we have available than how he has made the rom, we need a more complete htc 2.1 rom before this will work properly

He won't get the Legend/Bravo sources! Android 2.1 is already available AOSP, and the HTC stuff is closed source.
To be honest, I rather expect the Hero update to be pretty much everything that will be on the Legend, so the real issue here is which will come first - the Legend or the Hero 2.1 update?

Dave

He probably meant that the copy and paste feature have been much improved since 1.5, if you watch the presentation of the new HTC phones.
In about a month, we're getting the same Sense update..
For the who wants to know:
The new ROM is already compiled for the Nexus one and works 99%.
I really hope that once it's OK for the N1, we will get it for the Hero!

This doesn't make any since because you want a 2.1 sense ROM that will also be given to the Hero?
The work making a rom based off of the Legend is pointless since it would be the same thing your getting.

Exactly, people don't seem to be understanding this point.
Also about 80-85% of the features are also available on custom roms (albeit maybe a little buggy until we get the real thing)

New Fusion!ROM R1 [Friday, May 14, 2010]

GSM HERO ONLY
What is it? Fusion!ROM is the idea of Fusing an HTC ROM with a AOSP ROM... it is based on a HTC port stripped down to resemble a AOSP ROM and is clean, very stable, and functional. This is not a Sense ROM
NO DONATIONS! FREE FREE FREE
Benefits...
Looks and feels like a AOSP ROM but with less bugs and more stability, more stuff really working with good speeds and no random reboots.
AOSP Camera always working at 5MP without random corruption, video too.
AOSP Keyboard has a background.
Gallery 3D is really working not just reloading itself when you rotate your phone.
Includes all stock AOSP apps. with the exception of the "in-call" dialler functions.
A2SD Working if you have a partition set.
Superuser permissions
No JIT = more stability I will test a JIT flavor soon.
The catch... some HTC stuff remain hidden because they are required by the frameworks.
The status bar is black because the HTC frameworks have been compiled with white fonts. Maybe some HEX editing can fix this.
When using the search feature the graphics are a little off by a few pixels but everything works 100% maybe I can fix this.
You need to complete the HTC setup wizard if you want USB disk mounting to work... I recommend skipping to the finish and then setting up your mail and other accounts after.
The Dialler is AOSP but the "in call" keypad is HTC I have not found a way to replace Phone.apk with the stock AOSP one.
All settings work but the Personalize functions are removed so they will cause a force close if you try and use them.
Animations are disabled by default... just enable them.
Using the HTC Lockscreen for now... the AOSP one has no background.
HTC Contacts and Call log remain in launcher "all apps" and are required for syncing to work but you don't have to use them at all and they won't show there ugly faces, just make sure you pick AOSP Contacts as your default when prompted.
Things to test...
Multi-language stuff... do locals work?
Google sync works but is it also possible to sync your contacts and calendar using HTC sync?
Internet tether is untested please report.
Feel free to report any bugs that affect your Android experience I'll do what I can to help.
Camera Greenish color? I get different results if I leave the white balance set to auto in various lighting and I think that is normal.
A full wipe is recommended...if you are coming from a different ROM.

I think he was asking in terms of, is this based on a stock CDMA Rom or Modded CDMA Rom.
I thought I'd add CDMA part on there before someone starts trying to tell me there isn't a stock 2.1 rom for the hero yet....

If you are talking about Villain,you should stop a minute to think...
They ask for donations only,all the ROM´s eventually are avayable for free,they work hard to have every single port out there avayable for us,they have OTA that needs a server...
I havent donated as i dont do web transactions(got burned once) but i think its nice of them to have goodies for people that made donations and helps them...They could work on the ROM´s just for them,and we wouldnt have half the ROM´s we have nowadays(most of them are based in Villains builds)
So if you feel left out because others are using a ROM already and you dont,donate...they deserve it

Sense look on a Vanilla Rom

Hi all,
I'm looking at some vanilla Roms right now, as I'm sick of all the HTC crap But I really can't stand the Vanilla default rounded-white-awfull style and love the blak HTC's one. I've looked over the internet but I only find some framework-res.apk that would replace the notification bar. ANd I would like to replace all the look of vanilla (included radio buttons, checkboxes etc)
So here I come with this idea. Taking the framework-res.apk of an htc rom, let's say VillainRom for e.g (if they don't see any drawbacks in that) and replace a lots of stuff in a vanilla one, e.g ezHero, as this is the one I'm looking at.
Now, knowing the fact that I've never done some Rom customizing before, is this a quite easy task... I mean, some png are different in size, would this be a problem ? Do I have to do something else appart from zip align, re sign etc ?
Cheers,
LTourist
PS : and don't answer me "if you don't know that, you shouldn't do it" because the one who do must have started somewhere before becoming a rom expert
you should take a look at SuperHero from the VillainROM guys.
almost exactly what you describe.

Why don't you try it & see?
This should help: http://android.modaco.com/content/t-mobile-pulse-pulse-modaco-com/302404/ande-android-design-editor/
If you need any help I will be glad to help.
I was on SuperHero 1.1 once upon a time... but since the version 2, I don't want to go on it again... This version is, imo, just villain without sense home... which i already have on my villainROM... Moreover, there is still so many htc crap under SuperHero, like sms, clock etc...
I will have a look at the soft you're pointing to me 42turkeys, looks promising
How about: Take a great Cyanmod base (VanillaEclair because of its awesome power saving kernels and CM 5.0.7, or the straight 5.0.8 port) - and try theming with a CM theme? Problem with having Sense frameworks is that of space - and memory usage. They will always run in b/g
Scratch that - Just tried this and hung on loading screen.
Same here, but with the framework-res.apk modification that 42turkeys gave me. I started from ezHero...
I totally agree, sense framework is hell, that's why I would really like to have the best of the two world. And a vanilla rom fits in 60MB whereas SuperHero take more than 100MB... for absolutly useless app's and features... Vanilla with CM and "sense" look would be awesome!!!
Didn't know about the CM theme, i look at it tomorrow, it's too late now, off time
Good luck! If you need any help just ask and I can test stuff for you as I'm running EZHero too.
I assume "theming" CM is actually using Metamorph, right ?
Well, I'll try to learn how to do it this evening. Just in the mean time, I give a try at superhero again, just to be sure I don't wan't any crappy sense stuff, and I'm now fully convinced... SuperHero crashed this morning by waking me up as the htc clock was ringing but without htc's lockscreen...
VillainRom team has made an incredible work since a while, but this release of SuperHero is just a joke to me... (sorry for those who worked hard on it )
EzHero/Sense look, I'm coming
Well, I can't manage it...
Can't do metamorph because it seems dead and the only reliable informations I could find was videos made by stericsson... Which is not helpfull regarding the xml file tags and others specification used by metamorph...
I managed to boot with a modified framework-res.apk but android is crashing just after boot up... I tried to pushing the original apk but I got the same errors since then... So maybe it's not my apk which is bad but just the method I'm copying it : the brute force !!! (adb push ^^)
Does it gonna work if I'm making an update.zip ?
If somebody could just point me where to start, I'll be gratefull
LTourist
Probably the theme section of the forums as this really isn't development related...
Yep, I agree. I saw my mistake after my first post... But it was to late Maybe some moderator could move the thread in that forum to avoid duplicated thread

Rom request

First off excuse my ignorance, as I am not a developer.
the thing I hate most about Sense is the Contact interface, facebook and google voice in particular. Now I know google voice isn't a part of sense but thats kinda the point.
Facebook for sense is a good idea done bad. All the mundane features are hidden and obscure. Also when you use google voice, half the sense features don't integrate and just make things feel cumbersome.
Is it possable to make a true "vanilla" Rom at least when it comes to contacts and facebook. Can we get the android facebook to do the contact integration like the Nexus and can the sense contact interface be completely discarded?
I assume is is vary difficult since it hasn't been done yet but I wanted to request it just in case it can be done
People are working on vanilla 2.2 and2.1 roms as we speak. Should have more stable versions soon.

so these roms would have no sense it it at all? The reason I ask is because I have tried a few roms that say they are Vanilla but as soon as you go to a contact, the sense interface is still used.
try the CyanogenMod Test Rom.
No sense at all. It's nice to see it totally plain, but there are still enough bugs in the rom that I went back to stock to wait for a future release. But I still recommend you check it out for a day or two.

I tried it last night. Facebook still uses the HTC sense to sync contacts (witch is broken and I didn't try to push the friendstreem.apk) and I am pretty sure it had the sense finger slide in the contacts

You may have tried Ozzeh's or Jager's "vanilla" roms (which still have some sense left) but if it had any sense in it you didnt try Cyanogen. His is completely free of sense.

I may be wrong about the contacts menu but the facebook sync was definitely missing from the android app witch lead me to believe I would have to push friendstreem.apk to fix it but I didn't try so I may be wrong

OK, that makes sense then.
Because yes, right now the only way to get Facebook sync to work is to use friend stream....but that doesn't mean that the ROM has sense UI in it. It means you REALLY want Facebook sync.

[WIP] Update 2011-7-19: Port Sense 3.0 Lockscreen and Quick Settings to OTA GB

Update 7-19 Working Lock Screen: jrizk07 has put together a single zip update for a stable lock screen. Big thanks to jrizk07!
In the zip, the Sense 3.0 Weather is included along with the updated 3.0 lock screen. All are working.
Limitations/Bug:
The lock screen will not show missed calls. This is due to the use of the 2.1 phone.apk. The 3.0 phone force closes too much, presumably due to a conflict with our radio.
Some are seeing the VVM app displayed twice in the app drawer. This is not consistently reproduced.
Zip can be found below. It is best flashed on a clean version of the RMK OTA. Flash on top of the ROM with no wipe. Link below:

Update: I have managed to get the lock screen working on the OTA build by RMK. I did no dev work on this, but rather was able to find different combinations of files that mostly worked. I am no Dev and cannot really support this, but wanted to post my findings. Flash at your own risk.
Here is what I did:
Taking the great work by Seo on the Desire HD (Thanks Seo!) in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1062962, these are the steps I took:
1. Flash Sense3_WeatherPack-0.13.zip and reboot to set up. Do not wipe.
2. Flash Stock_Weather_KingdomLock-0.3.zip and reboot. Do not wipe.
3. Flash Kingdom_Lockscreen-0.17.zip. Do not wipe
After this, you should have a working lock screen and the new Messaging app. The new Messaging app cannot send MMS, so I pulled the MMS.apk out of the RMK ROM and pushed it back into System/App using Root Explorer (remember to change permissions), and reboot. If MMS is not important to you, you should be able to keep the app.
Bug:
com.android.phone will force close on occasion. I am not sure what is causing this, but it seems to happen mostly at start up. You will lose network connectivity momentarily and it will come back. I am not sure if it is a conflict with my SwitchPro widget for toggling vibrate or not, but seems related. This will also happen when toggling 3G Hotspot, but after the FC, everything works fine.
Work Around:
If the Phone FC'ing is an issue for you, you can push the phone.apk from the RMK ROM similar to the MMS method above. Doing this will not show missed calls on the lock screen and it will not show the count of calls on the phone icon for the lock screen.
I know the Kingdom ROM folks are having the same FC issue with the phone, so we should monitor Joel's progress to see if the issues they are having are related to this.
Now, on to the Quick Settings.
Old Req...
I know we are all waiting for Kingdom and Virtuosity, but I would love to just add these two features to the OTA. I suspect it will yield a very stable ROM.
That said, can anyone point me to a tutorial for porting features? I am sure it will require some framework tweaks and new APKs, but I would like to at least start poking around since we have a stable ROM with all working features.

Thanks. I tried that ROM and liked it, but it is missing several HTC widgets and the voice search does not work. I really love that lock screen though.

Don't forget MMS doesn't work.
A good place to start is looking at the sense 3.0 update in that thread.
It replaces various frameworks, permissions, and apk's among other things. The only problem is that it's based on the Incredible S otherwise we'd be able to just flash it normally.
I flashed it just to test and I got the lock screen to work however the com.android.phone will continuously crash along with the status bar. I don't have enough time in the day to look at it piece by piece for a port.

GPS works fine for me but what did you do differently for mms?
It always fails after a number of retries and looking into it the settings are all blank. That's coming from a clean wipe of everything to beta2.
I'm still unable to send/receive picture messages

Yea, I was bummed too after they said it was fixed.
I'd really love to use that ROM, loving the sense 3.0 features, but can't live without mms
I'm working on porting the 3.0 lockscreen and a few other applications to the OTA update that rmk released. This is the first time I've done something like this, though, so somebody might beat me to the punch as I'm taking my time to make sure everything is gravy.

Same here, i'm interested in being a guinea pig
I'm going to try to get my hands on an inc2 of my own so I can get some work done. Team BAMF has given me permission on the port and I got boot, haven't tested beyond that.

I just successfully ported sense 3.0 . No service yet though. I used a MT4G rom.
for those who want rmks rom with sense 3.0 lockscreen pull all the idlescreen.apks and fusion.apk from a sense 3.0 rom and htclockscreen.apk and put them into the rom before you boot
thats all it takes for 3.0 lockscreen? easy enough. thanks a lot
What ROM would you recommend grabbing these APKs from?
