After reading about Google rolling back the 19/5 feature, I tried again this morning and auto/manual sync were both working with Gmail/IMAP. I set the auto sync to every 15 min (use to be 5 min before this issue) just to be cautious. It's been two hours and so far so good.

I've updated my status in the Google support thread:

http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=62077c5f41b7cf17

Kudos to Google for acknowledging the issue (ok, not directly to us WM users, but to a group of Gmail users) and rolling back the troublemaking feature.
[HD2 General] stevedebi:
That is strange. I'm using the latest NRG, and my gmail with imap is not causing any heating that I can tell.

I have occasionally had the device heat up a bit while charging, but certainly not in daily use.

EDIT: I do not use "push"; that one does heat up the phone because it keeps the data connection active.
[HD2 General] dmoneyinc:
Wish I knew about this sooner.
[HD2 General] BigBlueEdge:
Yes, according to Google they have identified the issue with their IMAP mail server and fixed the problem. I turned my Gmail account back to scheduled checking (every 10 min) and reset my phone. I've had no Tmail.exe CPU spikes or any of the associated heat & battery drain since then (about 12 hours).

[HD2 General] JeaNBeRG:
what can we do for our droid hd2? disabling auto sync is enough?
[HD2 General] mcgam2000:
gmail revised???

Well I was glad I checked here, I was looking for why my phone was doing the same thing since last Thursday. And now I am glad I was able to go back to gmail.
[HD2 General] RJC82:
This info was great, I was worried that some thermal issues would be the problem. After a few days of freezes it went back to normal today.
[HD2 General] segster620:
For God Sake - sent phone back

Doh!! I persuaded HTC that my phone was bust and they collected it today. Now got no phone - could be up to 20 days he said!!! Wish I had checked here first!!!

I use sky mail which uses Gmail and I was getting the tmail errors freezing etc all the same as everyon else - battery dead after about 4 hours.

Oh I am so annoyed that I didn't look here first!!!:mad::mad::mad::mad:
[HD2 General] wigwam12:
So did I - but I discovered this before I contacted back to arrange collection etc.
[HD2 General] Slickickmax:
Very good find. I have been racking my brain trying to find out why my phone got sooo hot. But I had since deleted the email account because I updated my Energy ROM and I must say with the update the phone works much much better. I have yet to add my email accounts back but after reading this I am reserved in adding my gmail back.
[HD2 General] speakerphone:
I'm non gmail user, but I get this every now and then too

it's either my mail or mobipocket reader.
[HD2 General] stevedebi:
I load my email accounts onto NRG via xda_uc (xml file) and my gmail is not having any issues. I don't use push.
[HD2 General] wholoot1:
Wow, you are a hero.
[HD2 General] DTNT:
Hey guys, what about HD2 with Android on the board? Any solutions, because it freezes with heavy apps and in 3G surfing. And if I rollback to WinMo again, will my device stop to freeze? Any suggestions?!
[HD2 General] CubeShin:
GMail IMAP is causing tmail.exe to spike to 90+% CPU on WM 6.5 phones... AGAIN!

Started for me again today 31 May 2011.

[HD2 General] maximus9314:
Yes, the problem is back. What's up Google? Don't you test your stuff before releasing them especially there was an known issue before?

Everyone, please post at the threads on Google support forum (again).

[HD2 General] mentosan:
yes, it is back. What is going on? Is it google not so serious anymore?
[HD2 General] haighpaul:
Agreed, it's back and they know but please add your contibution to the disgruntlement on google forum. The latest google thread dealing with it appears to be:

[HD2 General] mad1010:
Damn it google, it's back again. Charged my phone last night, to find it empty again in the morning. Let's all complain again @ google...
[HD2 General] gandalftgray:
damn it.....

Bad, bad Google.

They know, but doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

I'm start thinking to move my private domain mail somewhere....
[HD2 General] stevedebi:
Something must be different, mine is set to IMAP but I have had no overheating, before or now. Strange.
[HD2 General] spikeyl:
it comes and goes. My battery has drained twice today.

Good news is that Google are rolling out a fix (see link in post 86)
[HD2 General] Farshlufen:
Google knew why and what they are doing.

Sounds like they had no other choice:

Now they are reporting that China tried to hack in to their system.
[HD2 General] maximus9314:
Yeah, Google admitted to the problem and rolled out a fix (completed).

I can confirm that my Gmail/IMAP sync on my HTC HD2 running WM6.5.3 is back to normal.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] ahager88:
Alright ladies and gentlemen, I am glad to finally bring you the Evervolv series of ROM's.

The current team of Evervolv constists of:

Everything should be working as of now. Please let me or us know if you find anything that's not in working order and we'll try to resolve the issue promptly. 4G widgets are currently still included in the build, just ignore, for now. :)

Screenshots of the ROM in action can be seen Here - Screenshots

Download the latest rom and view the changelog at Evervolv.com

Make sure to do a full wipe, even if you're coming from an older build, just to make sure. Also, flash Google Apps that are also on that download page.

Q&A

Is this CM7?

No, this is a build that started from AOSP. However, some of the fixes and few features have been derived from the CyanogenMod Team, including the CM kernel.

How social is the evervolv team?

You can join us on IRC, irc.freenode.net #evervolv. Or follow preludedrew and the status of Evervolv @preludedrew on twitter.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rubyknight:
Does this rom include the T-Mobile Theme Engine? Downloading now but I'm at work so I'll report back in a little bit. Much appreciated :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dburg84:
Good stuff positive one:] I'll play with it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
This tastes smooth :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] flyingemu:
Did a fresh wipe/data reset. Flashed the rom and the gb-0325 gapps. Everything installed with no issues, first boot went smooth.

It's a decent looking rom even though the font is really hard on my crappy eyesight, overall I like it so far besides the few issues i ran into. Market works and reinstalled all of my apps without issue. Everything syncs(contacts, gmail, apps, etc) Sent and received a few SMS messages. 1x/3g works. Browsed the internet. Can make and receive calls.

I thought it was a little slow after first boot but after a reboot it isn't as clunky and sporadicly laggy. Gallery took a bit initially but i think it was generating the new thumbnails

Camera force closes and does not open.

I receive an error when trying to start wifi. It just says error, I will logcat or something later when my kids aren't trying to beat me mercilessly.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] preludedrew:

USB fixed, Wifi fixed, Sound fixed.. Anything else?

The power widgets are going to be an issue for a short period. I created them with HDPI in mind, and still need to do some adapting to MDPI.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] preludedrew:
Normal distributions for phones that are supported go as follows

Test builds (current stage of the heroc), These go on irc in the main topic, i often tweet about them being there... but not always.

Nightly builds ( I call them nightlies because I used to do them once or twice a night for people back when gingerbread first came out, now i just put out nightlies when I think the rom is good, but want one last test ). - These can be found on twitter and in the IRC channels main topic.

XDA/evervolv.com builds - These are the obvious release builds... I do not do 'Stable releases' just because there's always something out there that im trying out... learning how to do.. so ya'all get what we're doing anyways. For the most part a 'beta' build is something that is stable enough for usage... yet the next week there could be something borked because im adding new things (like standalone power widgets are currently borked... working on them as soon as this message is written).

As far as the heroc is concerned, im fine with smoothtaste compiling and distributing.. ( this is an open community afterall) but i'll be doing an official release shortly (was close to doing one before 2.3.4 was merged, and then got busy with that =p)

my twitter account - @preludedrew

I post everything i do on there, kind of a 'twitlog' if you will.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] revcp:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] windtrader:
Reporting back after some time on ROM

Evolver has solved my GPS locking issues. I did increase the min CPU time while phone is active and set scaling to performance. Using profile turning down when screen is off.

The phone does generally feel a bit laggy, like screens don't scream by and starting things up somethings seems to drag but the GPS is working so it is a worthwhile tradeoff for me.

Phone has very good battery life, easily going 24+ hours under normal use, meaning no long drives using GPS and screen on while on battery.

I have had a couple freezes and FC but not very often and who knows what caused it. Navigon runs fine but the voice is not totally smooth and has some hesitation but overall ROM is great and a keeper.

There are still some CM7 features I miss. Most missed is the ability to fine tune the auto brightness, particularly increasing low light levels; it is stock and stays too dark for me. Also miss the battery percent number in the top status bar. SetCPU does what CM7 option does. Really, that is it on missing CM7.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bdcrim:
Have to tried running a memory manager such as Autokiller? It eliminated any lagginess that I had.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] painter_:
Why does the install script format /system? shouldn't I be able to flash over the last update?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Mumnoch:
Has anyone noticed battery drain issues? I have a Seidio 3500mAh battery on my Heroc and yet this morning I watched it go from 100% battery charge to 0% @ 1400. I used the wi-fi tether to give my nook internet access while at work and was playing off and on on it most that time (probably 4 hours worth of usage). Figured with a 3500 battery even with 4 hours of surfing/watching youtube my phones battery should of been at least 50%...

Is there a setting I missed? Other than the battery thing (and I'm not sure if it's this Rom's issue) this thing is sweet, couple of hickups but overall fantastic rom!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] flashinglights:
You might want to take a look at the evervolv thread over at rootzwiki. They have an updated 2.3.5 version over there, don't really know why they stopped posting here but updates can be found over there. Updated version might help you with your problem?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Mumnoch:
no dice, I'm using the latest Heroc according to their site, think I'll try some other roms out and see if I have better luck with battery life. Thanks for the link though)

[Hero CDMA Android Development] MongooseHelix:
I'm the maintainer of Evervolv for the Eris and wanted everybody to know that I plan on adding similar tweaks and updates to the heroc build since they are sister phones. I just put out a new release for the Eris and if people seem happy with it, I'll work on an update for you all.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vidaljs:
Kush's hero deck has great battery life also.

Good luck
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bdcrim:
I would appreciate the effort. Would those updates be different from preludedrews twitter page? Much thanks.....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MongooseHelix:
He'll most likely tweet any updates that get released assuming we remember to do so :). These would still be official Evervolv builds built from source...just adding some HeroC-specific changes since I'm already doing them for the Eris. These will also include any new features and changes we make to Evervolv as a whole. Two things we added recently that are in the nightly preludedrew tweeted about the other day are:

* lockscreen volume button music control

* "hot reboot" option added to restart the android framework
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bdcrim:
Thanks again. I would love to see this maintained on this forum. I drive this rom everyday and have had very few issues with the 3 hero's that our family uses.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MongooseHelix:
I wanted to share the download link to a new nightly build for those interested in testing it out. I've basically incorporated the same tweaks and changes I have done for the Eris. Be sure to make a nand backup of your current ROM and do a full wipe before flashing the ROM and GApps.

Download Here

For a changelog, you can look at the one for v1.2.0b3 on the Eris page here. Note that this heroc build doesn't include cache2cache since you all often use custom mtd partitions. I gave some specific details on what tweaks I used in this post. Also, for reference, the Evervolv-Eris thread can be found here.

To give feedback, you can post here, come to #evervolv @ irc.freenode.net (webchat), or PM me.

For all of u that may not know much about preludedrew or the evervolv brand. I've been running his roms on my Evo for quite some time now and also now running them on my hero and all I can say is WOW!!!! His work is as good as it gets. I've ran every Evo rom out there and close to every hero rom and it doesn't get much better. The Guy is extremely talented and a great person. If there is something broke or that can be better than I can guarantee it will get done and he takes care of issues pretty quick so no waiting and waiting for something to be taken care of. So if your on the fence about whether or not to flash one of his roms I'm telling u, u will not be disappointed.

Same question I ask for every ROM. As for battery life, what should we expect compared to other Hero ROMs with default settings?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PRGUY85:
Also, notice you got a different kernel in there. What's the difference?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rb3:
Considering the rom was out for less than 20 minutes before you asked I would say it would be tough to say. Got to give people some time to run it before any results will be available.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ahager88:
Not sure with ondemand or interactive. I compiled from kernel source on my computer and implemented the smartass governor for my heroc. I also compiled from up-to-date evervolv source last night as well, though the rom releases are currently compiled by preludedrew.

Long story short -> with my personal kernel and the smartass governor (176 min, 768 max) I got 28 hours my first full charge.

Just wanted to update my post with the Firerat mtd info:

on the latest build, after flashing the 5/24 Gapps, /system was just under 148, and cache at 17. I would suggest 150 20 for your mtdpartmap.

You may be able to regain some space by deleting some stuff from system, do a df-h in terminal emulator (to see what you have in /system), change mtdpartmap, then make a nand backup, reflash FR, and restore the nand.

just putting it out there.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jneg123:
First, thanks for all your efforts in bringing your ROM to the Hero and helping keep it alive. It's amazing what these little workhorses can do with the right software.

Just want to report I had an issue with the GAPPS from the download page. I was coming from CM7 nightly #73 (I think). I did a full wipe and a clean install. No Firerats or any other mods. When it booted up and I went into programs, Market was not there for me to download and restore my apps.

Unfortunately, I had to get to work and couldn't trouble shoot. I had to go back to CM7 nightly (#83 now, I think). I used an older GAPPS I downloaded from them and that worked fine. When I get a chance, I'll try again with those GAPPS and see what happens.

Also, I love the 6 signal strength bars! Very cool, just like Sense. Any chance of sharing that trick with the other Gingerbread ROMS out there?
