HTC Hero :: Online Kitchen For MoDaCo Custom ROM For GSM
Jan 13, 2010The Beta version of the MoDaCo Custom Custom ROM 3.1 for GSM Hero online kitchen is now available!
11/Jan 3.1 - Online kitchen for MoDaCo Custom ROM for GSM Hero - Android @ MoDaCo
The online kitchen is currently only available to my MoDaCo premium members (those who have signed up to MoDaCo Ad Free or MoDaCo Plus) as it is not yet running on an infrastructure that can support a huge number of users. This will be the case for the foreseeable future as the kitchen system is developed.
With that said, for those who can test the kitchen, enjoy! I've had this vision for a long time, so it's exciting to see the pieces falling together - both here and in the Android 'scene' - to make it happen!
This technology will be coming to other ROMs and will also be available for other ROM creators to use via our Chef's Team.
Sprint HTC Hero :: MoDaCo Custom ROM For CDMA
Jan 13, 2010You can now create a customised ROM containing only the parts you required - click here to read more about the MoDaCo Custom Custom ROM online kitchen!
MCR now optionally includes Wavesecure in ROM, allowing you to lock / locate / wipe your device remotely in the event of loss and be notified if the SIM is changed. The application cannot be uninstalled by a thief and we are actively working with Wavesecure to ensure that in a forthcoming release, your settings will survive a hard reset!
This ROM is based on the updated 'MR' ROM release series (together with my own optimisations) for the best possible performance! The ROM is packaged as a core version with optional add on packs.
Included in the 'core'
- Built with my new MCR build process which reduces size and boost speed of the ROM
- Rooted with 'adb remount' permission and superuser APK
- A2SD included (fully automatic - thanks cyanogen!) - create a EXT2 partition as your second partition to use. dalvik-cache remains on device.
- Added Jbed Java
- Added Dropbear SSH running by default, check 'About' screen for password (port 2222). You can now remove this by running /system/bin/removedropbear.sh
- Added Notes app from Dragon
- Added Spare Parts (run it and switch the 2 animation types to 'fast' for an even better experience!)
- Added WiFi Status indicator, with kind permission of Andrew Schwimmer
- Added busybox 1.15.3 with Droid Explorer support
- Added nano 2.09 - text editor for use in shell mode
- Added parted and sqlite tools
- Added terminfo and settings to boot.img to allow nano etc. use
- Added files required for Debian linux including loxley's updated bootdeb script
- Added all 4 available HTC widgets
- Moved Quickoffice to data partition to allow easy uninstall
- Moved Google Maps and Google Voice Search to data partition to allow easy update
- Deleted 'Learn More' application
- Silenced boot sound (it's still there and can be reactivated with a file edit)
- You can now check your MoDaCo Custom ROM (MCR) version from the about menu
Included in main 'enhanced' add on pack
- Added Business Card Scanner
- Added 'Plurk' client
- Added WAP browser
Other optional add on packs (apply as normal update zips)
- 'WaveSecure' add on pack (puts Wavesecure in ROM - it is no longer in core)
- 'Boot Sounds' add on pack (restores boot sounds)
- 'Hebrew Fonts' add on pack (installs hebrew fonts)
Recommended applications (available from the market)
- More Locale for setting non english Locales
Downloads
11/Jan 2.0 - MoDaCo Custom ROM for Sprint CDMA Hero - Android @ MoDaCo
ENSURE YOU DO A NANDROID BACKUP SO YOU CAN 'ROLL BACK' IF REQUIRED!
Please note that first boot may take a little while, especially if you have a lot of apps on your A2SD partition. Be patient! If you want a real clean start or you have issues with your existing A2SD installed apps when you boot, you need to wipe your EXT2 partition on SD too by executing 'adb shell rm -r /system/sd/app', 'adb shell rm -r /system/sd/app-private' and 'adb shell reboot'
The ROM is in an update.zip format for installation via the custom recovery image.
For the complete newbies, these are the steps you need to take with a 'virgin' Hero:
- Download and install (via rooting) the patched recovery image (step by step guide to follow)
- Download this custom ROM, and copy it to your SD card
- Enter the recovery image (if you're not in it already) by powering on while pressing 'home'
- Select 'nandroid backup' from the menu to do a backup
- If you copied the custom rom as update.zip, select 'apply sdcard:update.zip', else select the option below.
- all done
Feedback / feature requests welcome! This ROM is posted in multiple places - although I try to provide support everywhere the ROM is posted, of course you will receive the quickest response at MoDaCo.

May 7, 2010What would people's favorite ROM be? MoDaCo or Villain? I recently rooted my HTC Hero and installed Villain 5.4 on it. However, I've noticed the battery drains quicker than previous Android 1.5 that was on it. I've changed to "GSM only" in phone settings (*#*#INFO#*#*) and also have changed some settings with regard to display timeout etc etc.

Sep 28, 2009Having a few issues with wifi connectivity (which admittedly could be down to my router) so i thought id try updating my Hero's Radio Rom. Just wanted to clear up a few things before proceeding:
What is difference between 63.18.55.06EU_6.35.06.18 and 63.18.55.06FU_6.35.07.08? To apply the update do i simply rename the Rom archive update.zip and update as normal? and finally, does anyone have experience with the above rom on Orange? No issues with HSPDA / GPRS / Wifi connectivity?
HTC Hero :: From MoDaCo 3.1 To Villain And Back Again?
Mar 6, 2010If I make a Nandroid+EXT and a BART backup, wipe and then install Villain (or any other 2.1 ROM) is it completely roll backable by wiping and restoring either the Nandroid+EXT or the BART? The wipe affects nothing? Also, if I decide I like it, can I perform an EXT restore only and maintain my App2SD?
View 27 Replies View RelatedHTC Hero :: Updating Radio On Modaco 2.9
Nov 19, 2009I can't seem to find much info on how re-flashing the Radio is different to the ROM ?
I'm on a UK Orange phone with the Modaco 2.9.
Reception is generally good, however there are times in good reception areas when I get an answerphone message come through when I havent moved away from a good reception area.. So it appears that the phone is dropping reception - I have read this before on the forum IIRC.
Hopefully updating the Radio will help? Which one and is it as easy as updating the ROM ?
HTC Hero :: Need Options To Upgrade To Standard ROM Or Go With Modaco
Feb 26, 2010Sorry, a bit general and probably another Dumpty question (bits covered in other threads)
I have a sim free Hero (now on O2). Was working ok, but now seems to be getting very slow. I think my ROM is very old:
Firmware Version: 1.5
Baseband Version: 63.18.55.06U_6.35.04.25
Kernel Version: 2.6.27-a5504199
Build Number: 1.76.405.6 146733
Software Version: 1.0.0.A6288
What's my best option? Upgrade to the standard HTC ROM or go with Modaco? Are there other options? Is the android version linked to the ROM upgrade and if so, worth waiting for 2.1?
If it helps, I don't really use the phone too advanced. Sync to google and yahoo mail, some internet, music and a few apps.

HTC Hero :: Battery Life Terrible Since Flashing Latest Modaco Rom
Jan 25, 2010As the title really - for example full charge last night about 1am, currently sitting at 58%.would last a few days before flashing I'm not running anything differently - everything that's switched on was switched on before if you know what I mean! Is there anything I can do? Apart from going back to the previous (very slow in comparison) ROM.I have taskpanel installed to auto kill pretty much everything apart from the UI and messages.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHTC Desire :: Rooted And Flashed Modaco's 2.2 ROM With Sense
Jul 21, 2010I got sick of waiting for HTC to get 2.2 out for the Desire and I have no intention of waiting for the weeks of rumours and "delays" on those rumours.
I've rooted my Desire and installed Modaco's Android 2.2+Sense UI ROM and frankly I'm glad I did. It's stable, has all the features of 2.2 and is a LOT more responsive than the 2.1 stock ROM.
This was super easy thanks to Unrevoked. The principles should in fact work on any new HTC device. I can highly recommend it and you can check out the details of how I did it here:

Nexus :: Modaco Desire ROM / Touch-to-Focus Camera Works?
Apr 12, 2010Just got back from my hols where I used my (stock) N1 camera a lot. Got some great pics but a few certainly highlighted just how important touch-to-focus is to me. Was quickly reading a review of the Desire and read it has touch-to-focus. Was just wondering if anyone who is actually running the modaco desire ROM on their N1 can confirm whether this works? I'd also be interested to know if I could just use the desire camera app on a rooted N1 with Cynanogen? I'm rather partial to the stock appearance and not massively inclined towards Sense UI.

Mar 27, 2010Ive seen that many people are using the custom roms partly due to the frustration of having to wait for Android 2.1.
I love the Hero as is & have heard that under the custom roms it runs even better, is this true.
More so which of the Custom Roms would you recommend & why?
And in the event I dont like the Rom is the action reversible?
