10/Mar 3.2 - MoDaCo Custom ROM for GSM Hero (now with online kitchen)

[Guest Incomer]

thats strange ... i'm getting a lot of FC , with no reason , trying to open the market , the msgs , browser , anything with beta 5 .

all i did was pushing the hebrew fonts in it and installing a hebrew keyboard .

can they do that ? replacement of fonts can bring the system down ?

is there any log that i can upload from the device to here for you guys to look at ?

thanks

yeah you can post your logcat

install adb on your pc, connect usb cable

adb remount

adb logcat

and you see a log, copy the errors to pastbin or something, and whe can take a look into it :)

[Guest miragebg]

Please tell me how could I manually disable compcache?

[Guest SM411]

I got two questions.

Do I root my phone by installing this rom?

Can i add a norwegian T9 to this rom?

Is this a good tutorial on instaling custom rom?

[Guest teknologist]

In SDK I write "adb shell remount", but it says:

remount: not found

:)((((

Sorry, it's 2AM here and back from an Irish Pub, I am a dork...

adb remount

You reflash

or if you want to backup the file just do this prior to removing it with rm:

adb pull /system/init.d/compache.sh . (the dot here is important)

to restore it later

adb push ./compcache.sh /system/init.d/compache.sh

My baked ROM is super slow. I finished typed one sentence, two seconds later the whole words came instantly. That's how lag the input of the latest beta.

It takes one second to see the home after unlock the lockscreen. Three seconds to load SMS from top status bar. Two seconds to pop the keyboard. Two seconds to slide the keyboard down.

Damn baked ROM.

[Guest spooky2977]

to disable compcache i removed compcache.sh from the dir /system/init.d/ but compache is still loaded with 4096 kb. there must

be another script where compcache starts...do you have any ideas ??

[Guest keyra74]

Can i add a norwegian T9 to this rom?

Norweigan should alredy be in there :)

[Guest btnelson]

I love that I can come here from my phone's browser, bake up a new ROM, download, move to /, reboot, reflash and have a new OS without ever touching a PC. Paul rocks. Just tried out AOSP 2.1 for a bit but missed all the niceness is MCR 3.2 too much. Can't wait for official 2.1 for Hero.

[Guest e2zippo]

I just subscribed because you're doing an amazing job! Do you have to "activate" me before i can bake a rom or am i good to go? (why don't i just try it) :)

[Guest khunjj]

I am on MCR 3.2b3. Since b5 out until now, there is a few people saying about it. Would like to hear more about it. Thanks,

[Guest Kit59]

thks Paul

[Guest mifran]

hi paul after doing mcr3.2.1 and having a bad signal because of it only looking fo vodaphone 3G I wiped and flashed mcr3.0 which is ok for signal and then today i saw that you had done mcr3.2.5 so i cooked that and flashed onto 3.0 and get the speed and signal so i cant wait for the next version what else can improve my mind boggles your the man

I'm using beta 5 now and it works great! Really fast, no FC yet. Don't understand why people complain about compcache: it works great here. But maybe that's due to how you use your phone. Still a great rom! Waiting for 2.1 though :)

This is such a great ROM, fast & responsive.

I have tried a few combinations of this and other ROMS.

I personally have not had a single issue with anything.

My ROM included:

Google Applications - (both)

HTC Application - Sense and Tweet

Third Party Application - Spare Parts, Titanium, Wavesecure

Expert options - Boot sounds

Left Compcahe 'cos I'm sure Paul & Teknologist know what they talking about.

I have found Wi-Fi and Mobile comms to be excellent an no issues with FC or this ROM :)

English is the only language included in the beta 5

could you please put french and other languages?

thx! :-)

I believe you should use 'More Locale' for language support. I didn't do a wipe from 3.1 and still have my Dutch support. You can find the link to More Locale in the 3.1 topic

Decided to flash a custom custom 3.2 beta 5 after a wipe and a complete format of my SD Card.

Everything works well. Only issue I had was that I couldn't turn on WiFi when the phone booted up. In the settings, it was showing as turning on for ages and ages.

Strangely enough, powering down and powering on again, WiFi came back to life so it looks like beta 5 may just need a couple of power off/power on cycles before it's porperly working.

For beta 5, I decided to cook the rom without compcache to see what difference it made to things, to be honest I haven't noticed anything different speed wise etc.

It's been quite interesting to see how the rom performed after a wipe and with a complete standard SD card re-format i.e. no partitions etc. Quite liking it it so far. Nice and responsive.

Now I've got past the minor WiFi issue, it gets a big thumbs up from me.

[Guest spooky2977]

Are you shure you have no compcache enabled..i cooked the rom whit

Compcache disabled..but compcache is still enabled...cooking beta 5 whithout

Compcache do not disable it..seems to be a bug here..

Hey Paul, Thanks for your ROM. I flashed the Core and Extended pack and don't have Rosie, anyone know why?
