NEBULAE ROOTED ROM BASED ON
OFFICIAL HTC WWE ÉCLAIR 2.1 (RUU)
***ONLY FOR GSM HERO***
Description:
This ROM is just another ROM like most others out there... Yes, I'm late in the game and it does not have much more than most ROMs but that was not the intention either. It's also not this ROM's intention to compete with any other ROMs. This is just something I did for myself (that's why you can find some unusual features) which I decided to share cause some people might like my simple and basic changes.
My work is based in two other ROMs, MoDaCo from Paul O'Brien and VillainROM from TeamVillain. I respect their work and thank them for their hard work. Some things were literally copied from their ROMs to mine, but I give credit where credit is due; if you find something that you think it was copied, that's because it probably was, but I'm not doing this to take credit for their work.
Features:
Based on Official HTC WWE Éclair 2.1 Update (RUU)
Rooted with Superuser 2.3.6.1 by ChainsDD
Missing locales from the official HTC update
en_PT, en_FI, fr_BE, fr_CH, pt_PT, nb_FI, da_FI, sv_FI
Fully deodexed for theming, hacking and extra space
Added Click'n'Drag to rearrange screens in Rosie/Sense
Long and comprehensive list of updated APNs
Added Dropbear support (SSH Server)
Added support for dalvik2cache script
Tweaked low memory management
Disabled boot animation sound
Included Linux tools:
BusyBox v1.15.3
SQLite v3.5.9
Bash v4.1
Nano v2.0.9
Included applications:
3D Gallery v1.1.30682 (Froyo port)
Removed applications:
HTC Footprints
HTC Stocks
Teeter
How to install:
Wipe everything:
Data
Dalvik-cache
Battery Stats
Rotate Settings
Flash ROM via recovery mode.
Flash Radio via recovery mode (the phone will reboot twice, do not interrupt the process at any moment).
Reboot the system once after the initial boot.
I suggest to always reinstall the radio after flashing any ROM, I've had GPS problems in the past for not doing so. Either flash the one below or the one that suits you/your network better.

It's somewhat impossible to thank every single person that contributes to the Android ROM development community. Kudos to everyone that does an amazing work and decides to share it with us.

Credits to TeamVillain for the huge APNs list, Bash, low memory management tweak and dalvik2cache script.
That's all I can remember at the moment, sorry if I forgot something or someone important.

I will not be held responsible for any damage to the phone and it's your responsibility to make the necessary backups before flashing this ROM.
Patch for Nebulae ROM v0.1
NEBULAE ROM PATCH
***ONLY FOR GENERIC/DEODEX ROMS***
Description:
There were a couple of things I wanted to include in my ROM above but couldn't because of software limitations (more specifically, signatures). This patch allows that and you also have the choice to flash it or not.
This patch can probably be used on another ROMs (for the HTC Hero of course) if you like but I will not provide any support there. Just make sure the ROM is deodex or it will probably lead to unexpected results.
Features:
Removed shortcuts from Launcher:
Call History
Learn More
Phone
Search People
Settings
Setup Wizard
Removed vibration from the Calculator and Dialer apps
Fixed graphical glitches and unreadable colors in a tabbed interface
Example of original interface: image
Example of fixed interface: image
How to install:
Just flash the patch zip file like any other ROM.

nice rom, gj

Done... Although I don't expect to update this ROM much as I took my time to cook exactly as I wanted and testing it thoroughly. But mistakes happen all the time and you never know what more stupid bugs HTC left for us to fix.
Thank you all.
Great post and nice patch,cleans almost everything we really dont need or have in other places.
Too bad for me it doesnt have footprints as i use it a lot,but you cant satisfy everyone and as you said it was build for your needs.
Welcome aboard,hope to see more work from you.
You can easily push it back (along with the widget) to the phone if you want. Of course, only if you really find this ROM more useful than the one you're currently using, otherwise don't bother
Nazgulled,
Could you please upload the freshly new Google Maps 4.4 only? I'd like to update mine to 4.4 but it seems certain apps are missing from Market for me right now, including Shazam, LauncherPro and etc.
Please?
Nevermind, the direct download is here: http://db.tt/0Mtbc3
Finally an Official WWE rom with locales fixed! Was waiting for a en_PT option for a long time without keyboard installations and tweaks!
Will try it!
Many thanks!
wow
very nice one. can you make a patch so I can set the speed to 710Mhz with Overclock widget?
thanks

I have 63.18.55.06PH_6.35.15.14 radio version.
Does 63.18.55.06PU_6.35.15.11 suites better for our country?
Thanks in advance

PH? Where did that one come from? I'm not sure that's newer though because PH comes before of PU and radios are normally versioned like that...
I'm not sure, I'm using 63.18.55.06PU_6.35.15.11 as that one came from the official update and haven't tested any others. The only way to tell is to keep using both for a long period of time and take some conclusions...
Found this now:

PH and PU are the same. Some Heros report the radio with an H and others with an U.

Click to collapse
So, there's "2 new radios" right now and I have them both posted on the front page. The "PH" you're using is basically the one I posted for "orange users", which ends in 14.
Seriously, I don't know which one is better, i'm just using the first one and haven't really tested the other... If you do test both and find out the .14 is better than the .11, let me know
I have seen this .11 radio in Denmark. (use .14 myself, no probs)
On an officiel HTC update.

Think I found it on Villain's place as a new rom.
Think its working well, just don't know about battery because I'm always using the phone and charging it a lot.

I don't get it, what differentiates this from the already existing rom's and why would one change when some of your bugs are fixed in many of the other rom's?

I appreciate what you're doing and well done an all but all i'm saying is that the RoM's on offer should be doing all they can to show what they have done differently to other builds.
Personally I can see little difference between your release and Villain or aHero aside from the bugs which they fixed a while ago. All I'm saying is that to get followers/users you need to offer something new! What is your rom offering that Villain isn't? Why would I want to go through all the hassle of backup & wipe?
Not cool guys.
If I have learned ONE thing from my experience with many, MANY different ROMs over the last few months, it's that each one has it's own uniqueness about it, despite what it may say on the "features" list.
There is ALWAYS room for new ROMs on the scene, and just because it may not be YOUR favourite, doesn't mean someone else won't prefer x over y.
No one is forcing you to backup & wipe. If you're happy with your current ROM, then don't bother. But DON'T come here and question the developer on the necessity of his work!
I'll certainly be trying this ROM out, as I'm yet to find a vanilla 2.1 ROM that I am 100% happy with for day-to-day use. Perhaps this isn't the one, but I'll certainly give it a shot.
Thanks robin04. I hope the negative attitude in this thread doesn't dissuade you from further development.
can't download it plz upload on mediafire
I wasnt beeing negative as i said in 1st post its always nice to see new ROM developers.
All i did was answer the dude question not my fault that he edited it while i was typing.
I do hope he continues to develop his ROM

awesome rom thanx for sharing,few issues could we implement the camera fix and vending.apk for the market or could someone point me in the direction of these plz ? also is there any other youtube.apk that we could push to this build because the videos dont play on this rom ?
If we could get these issues fixed this would be the best AOSP rom i have used simply because most live wallpapers actually work !
"green" "didgital rain" "water" "Duck hunt" and a bunch of others from the market actually stay on and dont dissapear with the lock / unlock cycle

I have no idea what negative attitude you're referring to but i think you've got the wrong end of the stick. I'm trying to help him out! I'm not here advertising my rom or any favorite, just asking what differentiates his.
I just think the ROM should probably be labeled correctly. It would be easy for a new user to install this rom when other roms would be better suited. Labelling this ROM a beta would probably be more accurate, until the major kinks are worked out.
The 3gp video record with the camera can play or not? (freeze after first frame)
Thanks
great rom Robin, imho the best AOSP 2.1 avaiable!! thx
Does this rom have root? If so,I can't get it... have flashed many roms but never had this problem. I have wiped data and dalvik. never used a2sd.
Any ideas?
never mind. got it working
How's the battery life?
tun.ko in aosp rom possible?

Hi All
Does HTC put Friendstream inside HTC Hero 2.1 rom?
French langage is present inside multi-language? For example in home menu, "Téléphone" instead of "Phone"
Many Thanks
Gibou
ok.... so which one do I use? yours Paul, or roufianos (which certainly sounds interesting), or 42's eclair-update-signed?
and this is likely a really naive question LoL, but I'm guessing these won't overclock?
And if they won't overclock, will it be possible for you amazing people to supply a kernel that CAN overclock any time soon using the actual hero 2.1 official kernel source? or is that going to be unavailable source code for the forseeable future (based on past experience with google/htc)?
One of my current issues with VR6.2.1 is that the camera only works at iso100, making it almost useless for taking pics of kids/dogs/anyone who isn't posing still. I'm hoping that this official rom fixes that. But I'm thinking that maybe using an alternative kernel that can overclock which isn't actually based on the official hero kernel source code but is in fact taken from the Eris (like VR6) might break the camera iso functionality again.
So much boring long crap I'm writing eh? LoL
oh, and most importantly, thanks for being super amazing!
cheers,
Dkelley
No voice search or voice input. Is it possible to add or get this?
Otherwise it's a very good rom, very fast!

Use whichever ROM you want.
SetCPU seems to be overclocking ok, HTC have to release kernel source code as they have modified other open source stuff.

you should be able to use any 2.6.29 kernel (from other 2.1 roms) or build your own using the leaked kernel sources http://github.com/behnaam/HeRo-2.6.29-GoDmOdE .
Works great for me Hero GSM China Mobile.

Hi ! Thank you for this release ! Flashing right now. I'll use it until the WWE or European version come out.
I still find that the new "shiny" look of the Sense UI is not as good as the previous one
Is there any body using oc kernel? If yes which kernel you using with this rom?

I guess Ill be the first to indulge...installing now, thanks for an easy flashable version of Desire Z sense, appreciate all the hard work in making my G2 the ****!
BTW - does the Desire Z OC kernel module floating around here work for this rom?
Came from Evil's ROM.
No wipe was required, kernel not overclocked, needs patience when flashing and firstboot, but overall seems to be working fine.
The location app, which didn't work correctly in the other Rom I tried, seems to be missing.
a) Where is said kitchen?
b) Can the kitchen include the 1.5GHz kernel and the "interactive" governor SetCPU?
quick question... would I be able to push lights.vision.ko to the appropriate location to get the trackpad to light up for notifications? i MUCH prefer that over the speaker light led
The locations option somehow got missed out of the kitchen!
I've updated it, and will update the prebake next time i'm properly online (visiting family for the weekend now!)

just flashed with BB and is working perfect so far @ 1.497 ghz

Help... when I first loaded up this rom, the first thing i did was check to make sure the .com button worked... and it did.
Now that everything is done installing, my .com key no longer works, what happened?
Wi-Fi Hotspot
I really like the ROM so far, but I can't seem to get the Wi-Fi Hotspot working. I had success with the hotspot on the G2's version of stock android, but no luck with HTC Sense.
Has anyone been able to get this to work?
EDIT: Tried it again and it works fine. You just can't have the USB cable plugged into a computer and have WiFi Hotspot on. Might have something to do with the tethering.
I have used the FM radio successfully and have paired with a bluetooth headset. Everything seems to work great on this.
I downloade your Rom on setup I can't find English ( united states) option just a bunch of other countries is it not available other than that great Rom real smooth and also will Bacon bits kernel work on your Rom thanks in advance

Works fine on eVil's Sense. Does the FM work on this one?
I can't do Bluetooth device pairing. I can turn it on but can't pair it with bluetooth hands free device.
pls advice if someone else has this problem
Paired OK here?

thanks for the universal g2/z rom.
I hope all follow your good example and do the same.
And we can get rid of one of these forums either dz or g2.
Question do DZ owners just need a proper kernel to run a g2 ready rom?
Or can the just flash and go?
How do I install visionary its not letting me do it on astro

Hope it works! (Desire Z - in Canada)
Works great! Finally stock crap is gone!
Does anyone know if this version has the HTC locations installed? I noticed on Paul's site it said something like it he forgot to ad this..? Was that only for the kitchen..? Or is it included in the pre-baked version..? BTW... as always, THANKS PAUL!

Really? I installed it and the location is not in there? This is from a pre-baked version. Do I need to use the kitchen? I don't see it in the kitchen either... Am I missing something..?
Update: saw it in the kitchen... Gonna bake one with it and give it a try. UPDATE: Locations working like a charm on NAM Bell Desire Z.
does HTC Locations only come in the kitchen or the default rom as well? I don't have ad-free membership, but i'd love to be able to use locations app.
Yup, its only included in the online kitchen.

It's not in the pre-baked one. You need to bake a NEW one in the kitchen. I beleive Paul will fix this soon for the pre-baked one. Not a big deal to bake. Locations works GREAT on the NAM Bell Desire Z. I downloaded maps, voices, etc from within the app. The widget is also pretty cool. Sooooo happy to now have all the bell junk out too!
Is it possible to upload your locations.apk from /system/app/ ?

Since this is the European ROM, it is lacking all the locale from NA, like English (Canada). Is there a way to add them?
Install MoreLocales from the Market. I'll fix that in the next release.

Description
I made my own ROMs for a while (too many bloated ROMs, or tweaked way too much), but never published them to others. After yesterday when it helped someone I decided that I'll go spend some time and put it up as it might be of use to some more people. But don't expect anything mind blowing. This is a ROM that is meant to be as close to stock as possible, while adding small additions that don't negate the original experience.
Features
Based on XXJVT [Android 2.3.5, Deodexed, Zipaligned, Rooted, Busybox] (thanks to Ramad)
Semaphore 1.8.0 kernel [Voodoo Color/Sound, OC/UV, BLN] (thanks to stratosk, supercurio, Neldar, and Chainfire)
VM heap size set to 32
Hard to kill launcher
AppWidgetPicker (thanks to boombuler)
Camera with low battery and power button hack (thanks to $omator)
Gallery3D without Samsung's low quality tweaks
Microbes and HTC Sense live wallpapers
Extended power menu, CRT-off (thanks to sphinx02)
Stock battery with percentages and green icons on connection to Google services (thanks to $omator and others)
Everything else is stock unless I forgot to mention it...
Download 'Stock_Extra_[XXJVT].zip' (no wipe)
Download 'Stock_Extra_[XXJVS].zip' (wipe)
Instructions
Apply from CWM. Preferable to wipe data/restore factory defaults and wipe cache, but you can try without the former and see what happens. As usual, make a backup beforehand just in case.
Extras
CM7 % Battery for XXJVT (thanks to thanks to $omator)
I didn't add any experimental things, or special tweaks, however I do have a few recommendations; Playing around with the Semaphore application may yield some improvements, converting your file systems to EXT4, and applying the Universal Adrenaline Shot may be of some benefit.
The benchmarks posted have been done under a combination of the previously mentioned tweaks. The numbers themselves don't mean much, but the overall experience is pretty smooth -- even without any tweaks applied as I was told.
Disclaimers
As usual, you are applying the update at your own risk.
ROM re-packaging is not such a difficult process. As such if you wish to donate please consider donating to XDA, or the people who have been credited for the tweaks (amongst the others that I may have missed).
If you ask for additions I may or may not include them in the future, depending on whether I would like to have them or not (remember the original purpose of this ROM in the opening paragraph).
Just gonna download. a nice simple rom
great work ..
i like roms like that ..
This kind of simple roms I really like. I just hope that you also make like this base on xxjvt.

I will rebase it once all the addons are made to be compatible with it. Also forgot to add in the features that it has Gallery3D without Samsung's low quality changes -- so it will be slower, but the pictures will look much better overall.
Per request I also had to rename the name of the ROM, however I'm afraid I won't be uploading the same zip file just with a different file name; next time.
And glad to know that it is to some people's liking
very nice rom . stable and good.
Hi, can i make a special request.
Can you do the same for Asia stock rom DXJV9. European rom does not contain Asian language pack unless you know how to port that into these rom.
Thanks

I'll see what I can do during the weekend, or the end of the week, but no promises. Aren't there any Asians ROMs that have a similar set of features?

Great man. Well, Asian rom is up to Android 2.3.3. I don't understand why Samsung did not release update to 2.3.4, even European rom had breach the 2.3.5 version. It pretty disappointing man.
Nevertheless, thanks for trying.
I'm currently in the process of testing a JVT version, so hopefully in the next few days (or maybe even today) when it proves to be stable and without any glaring mistakes I'll have it uploaded. Until then, sit tight folks.
Awaiting.
Does it come with Asia language pack?

I'm afraid the only Asian language included (that I recognise) is Korean, which by looking at your country's icon is not what you're looking for.
That said, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to make a full version for one of those Asian 2.3.3 firmwares. The mods and tweaks that I rely on are specific to certain firmware versions, as such I wouldn't be able to mix them together.
And I'm afraid I don't have time for the "trial and error" approach due to my job, so yeah... there's nothing else I can really do, unless there is a way to force the Asian languages into non-Asian firmwares -- something that I'm personally not aware of.
So here is the XXJVT version; you may download it from here (link is also in the front post). This version will not wipe your data, so if you came from the previous version you should be able to just install it over and everything should work just fine.
Changelog... or what seems to have changed:
XXJVT base
Blue overscroll glow (this is a Samsung change to stop infringing on Apple's retarded patents)
Overall smoothness seems to be better (and apart from EXT4 I have applied no other tweaks this time)
Slight battery improvement (discharging fully and wiping battery stats from CWM helps after an upgrade)
From my side the rest is the same
Enjoy

This rom is superb well done mate!
I guess Stock extra still the best. Too many tweak and mod will make the phone unstable. On and off, i still have to reboot the phone even though the developer declare it is stable.
Good work mate.
me too likes such simple ROMs like the one from $omator in the themes and apps sections called:
[ODEX/DEODEXED][2.3.3/2.3.4/2.3.5 - LATEST -> XXJVT] stock+ by $omator
