Guest Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 (edited) Hy Paul What do you mean exactly by "insecure boot included" ? Is it possible to flash it using AmonRA 1.6.2 ? Yes it is possible to flash it with the AmonRA 1.6.2 method as that's exactly what I have done. You have to make sure you're on the official 1.5 update first though, and then wipe completelt once into the flash utility. In addition, is anyone else experiencing issues with android.process.media ? This process keeps crashing on my handset and I cannot do anything about it. It's stopping me getting anything from the Marketplace! Edited June 9, 2010 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest fercasa83 Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Hi Guys, I'm a noob is there any place where I can find instructions to install the files mentioned above?

Guest venturerider Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 I dont know if its just me, but whenever i try to open "superuser permissions" it just gives me a blank screen and stays like that.... That screen only shows which programs have already been granted SU permissions. To grant permissions, just start the program that requires it. You will get a screen asking to grant permission or not.

Guest Muzer Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 What's this "radio" thing? I'm quite confused - is it referring to GSM radio (ie so it won't work as a phone without it), or is it something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Perey Posted June 14, 2010 Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 I get occasional stuttering but, a little more annoyingly, sometimes when it's changing tracks it seems to get stuck, the way to fix it is by tapping button/screen. Seems it might be something to do with the CPU freq. when in 'screen off' mode. Might be able to fix it with a bit of OC'ing :) Yeah I'm getting this problem too, get it even when I have offlined the playlist. Spotify would stutter when playing and I had to take my phone out of my pocket and drag the drag the screen lock down to fix the problem. Bit of a pain in the arse frankly. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest garbiel Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 hey all. had been using the latest Villain rom because there was no Modaco 2.1 alternative until recently.... and now i see why. The villain rom was unbearably slow, would usually grind to a halt if doing more than 2 things, gps didnt work, the web was terribly terribly slow. constant reboots or just pulling the battery out because it would freez for 10 mins. this modaco rom is excellent. really impressed. had a few issues installing the rom and installing the radio, but all is done now. no reboots, no hangs or freezes, gps works, its very smoth and very very responsive. fair play Paul. great job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mugenmk Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 As a noobie can someone please help me. How do I instal this rom, where do I download it? Is it the same process as with the Modaco 3.2 , 1.5 firmware? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nickbw Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 (edited) Shortly, testing now... P I tried this with UK Orange (locked) hero (rooted) running MoDaCo 3.2 ROM and 1.5 firmware it came up with "sim lock" irrespective of which radio I used. This is exactly the same problem as I had trying the ROM from xda site. Does anyone have any ideas if rooted phone running 3.2 will receive Orange OTA preparitory upgrade for pending generic 2.1 or whether or not this will unroot phone?

Did you try last Villain 10 rom ? I'm trying it since yesterday, while waiting for the final MCR4, and it's really efficient. No FC, Multi language, OTA update ... I just think that battery life is not as long on VillainRom (perhaps some kind of overclocking in the air ...) Don't forget that before v10 release, all older villain roms were based on non-Hero ROM (i.e. Legend Rom ...), which were tuned to work on Hero. ;) Edited June 18, 2010 by Benkeeper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest eddiewawa Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 Hey guys, just letting you all know I was on a rooted HTC Hero (locked with orange) and the update to this ROM was successful. Did make the initial mistake of not wiping out the data 1st before updating it with the new ROM. phone powers up ok, had to add in the Orange APN manually so now can connect to mobile internet (HSDPA speeds checks out ok). mybackup installed and recovered 23 apps i had backed up, will need to go through each one to see if there are any oddities about any of them working on 2.1 update - as im writing this i am getting force closes with the HTC sense process. have rebooted the phone to see if this still occurs (anyone getting the same thing with the HTC sense force closing?) will try and see if the GPS works with backed up co-pilot. will provide an update on the rest when i can. Laters! Eddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Smilgs Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 (edited) Hello. I have a problem with the ROM - worked fine for a couple of days. Then my gmail application started freezing (using google apps account), and now when entering gmail it hangs. Any help is highly appreciated. Update - a wipe of the data for google apps, google mail and sync data + restart solved the issue. Edited June 25, 2010 by Smilgs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Hey all, 1 days worth of use and looks like this new 2.1 update is a real battery drainer. ok, maybe the battery is 1 year old now, but still, 40% drop in battery capacity in (according to the battery graph) 1hr30mins??? fair doos im watching loads of downloaded youtube clips and mp3's but still thats SHOCKING battery life! lol any ideas how to maximise the battery with 2.1? are there any processes i need to keep killing? also, GPS, initially flakey, but GPS worked fine after a re-boot. google nav works ok, but issue with co-pilot still so be warned for now. fingers crossed there hasnt been another HTC sense process outage, so seems to be fine. @ Smilgs: dont use the google mail app, I just use the HTC Mail app and have the gmail account added in as a pop3, prefer the interface. HTC Mail app is pretty stable so far, no new on that front. any of you guys aware of a good cpu monitor? Laters, Eddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
