Thanks guys, the formatting system work for the problem. however a new problem arose shortly after reflashing the rom. everything was good for about an hour then i got a reboot and when it restarted the home button didnt work.... I reflashed the rom and everything appears to be back to normal. would it matter if i was using the Gapps from Cm7? anyway i downloaded the gapps from this thread and im going to flash those just to be safe.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] halrulez:
Ok so once again great work. Flashed the rom after wiping cache an dalv booted up fine and fashion. Market didn't work just reflashed gapps booted up all is well toned down the CPU to 691 and it was faster. Use to run 768 on all other roms to get this speed. There is a battery drain some place. Only lasts 24 hours Max. Other then that on screen touch keyboard.and surfing is great. Great update dude. But maybe we can work on the battery life
[Hero CDMA Android Development] youdug:
Turn down ur brightness to about 30%, keep data and gps off til u need it, in spare parts make the end button put the phone to sleep, put min at 245. Ive had 4 days without a charge with all that.

Just installed this version (1.2.1) with the 2.6.35 kernel mentioned a few pages back. Everything is fine, and running like a champ with LauncherPro. I used the afore mentioned 20110325 Gapps from AOSP thread.

As for the wake issue, I suggest changing some of the animations, and also increasing the minimum CPU speed since at least with this current build, it is by default set to 19 MHz with ONDEMAND. I am using 176 MHz and it is fine, but if you have issues with wake and camera, probably raising it to 352 wouldn't hurt.

Overall, moving up from 1.2x to this was a good move. No FC, everything works, and the updated kernel doesn't appear to mess up anything I use on a daily basis.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] abadasstanker69:
Did you remove the stock browser, freeze it, or leave it in place? I use launcher pro as well.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mtnchkn:
Didn't touch it and I assume then it is the one included in the ROM since that shouldn't be with Gapps. Also, in regards to the freezing reference, I let google do most of my restoring for me and only use TB for SMS/MMS restore, and a couple games.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] abadasstanker69:
I don't think you understood what I was asking. Enrique got what I was aiming at though however I don't ever uninstall the default web browser because of sites like rapid share that don't like opera. I just flashed this and yeah, it's an improvement for sure. My only complaint is battery life. It's still eating up ram also. Aosp froyo I had 105 available on average. On the deck roms it's been an average 40-50. Worth it though considering the build and the aesthetics.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] abadasstanker69:
Ok I removed the stock camera and replaced it with cam360, removed stock launcher and replaced it with lpp, and I tried removing the stock messaging app to replace it with gosms. That's where I hit an issue. Had to restore and just install them side by side. Flashed the gb gapps from the other aosp thread with vvm and everything checked out. The wake issue seems to be fixed but it keeps the screen on way too much IMO. No problem though. Just hit the end call button to shut it off. All around great improvement. I'd say close to RC. :-)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] youdug:
Yeah cant remove stock mms. I keep the stock cam for videos. I delete a ton of stuff tho. The rom is like 43mb when im done. I remove a bunch of apps, all wallpapers, and keep only one ring n notification sound. Every other ui, ring, and note sound i delete. Havent used lp in awhile cuz adw ex is sexy.

Yeah I loved adw but I wanted the sense look so I went with lpp for the widgets. Did you delete all that junk before flashing? I never thought of that lol. I'm always using titanium backup. Also appbrain does a good job of keeping a record of my installed apps if I forget to back one up.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] youdug:
Yeah i break that **** down before flashing. then after i flash it and gapps i go in again with root explorer n take out all the rest of the bs. I take out all the apps i never use, i keep new player and voila for my ring n notif tones and I use the stock wallpaper n delete the rest. I dont use a wallpaper from sd either, phone seems quicker when im usin a wallpaper already in the rom.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] waqasr:
Bro I have a few questions,

You said you use Root Explorer to take extra stuff out, I have TitianiumBackup which also removes stuff like that but is there an advantage of using Root Explorer

or is it better?

I am using Cm7.1 nightly 131, I believe my ring tone is on SD card because some times there is a lag before my phone even starts to ring. Do you know if there is a way to move my ring tone from sd card to my phone?

How can I use a wallpaper from my phone instead of SD card? I am using one which came with CM7.

I am sorry for so many questions but I saw your comment and all these questions came to my mind so I thought I should ask you.

Thank you
[Hero CDMA Android Development] abadasstanker69:
1st question ...root explorer and titanium backup can BOTH uninstall system apps. You can use either.

2nd question...you can't compare the two to find out what's better because they do different things.

3rd question ....yes you can. In root explorer navigate to the media/ringtones folder for ringtones and media/notification for text alerts.

4th question ...if you're using a wallpaper from cm7 it was on the rom. I disagree that using one from the SD card slows down the phone but, to each his own ;-)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] youdug:
I have a class 4 sd. Maybe with a better class it wouldnt make a difference but if ur sd is low class it might cause some delay accessing it, whereas the one on the rom is accessing it from the internal memory which is quicker.

This rom is really smooth, clean, and runs well, except the only problem i'm having is that Google Navigation keeps freezing on me every 30 seconds. That kinda sucks because I do use navigation a LOT in my line of work so for it not to work puts a crimp on this great rom for me personally. Not sure what the cause of it is, I wiped, cleared Dalvik, installed the rom, and i did flash Deca's 2.6.29 kernel, but everything else works fine with it so i'm not sure what the prob is. Anyone else experiencing anything similar?

you only blacklist the vvm 9016 number...i get all my Voicemails and text messages...you must be doing something wrong ..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mkeyslehman:
I stand by what I said via my CM6 experience. I too received all my VVM / SMS messages. Blacklisting 9016 blocked ringtone, vibrate and the SMS message itself, but

never

blocked notifications in the notification bar that I had an unread SMS from 9016.

You may have to update your recovery; there's a Darchstar_Ra floating around these boards for those of us not using ClockWork. It could also be that most other recoveries have eliminated verification and Deck didn't include the APK in his ZIP. In this event, either re-sign the ZIP yourself or wait for Deck to post an updated ZIP.

I installed a gapps without the sprint VMM from aosp 2.3.4 thread because I couldn't flash the one linked in OP. Then installed sprint VMM seperately. Did the restore data trick for sprint VMM. Called my phone and left myself a message. Got the VMM notification and I'm able to listen to the VM just fine, but no 9016 sms message. Interesting. I will test again later when I get home.

edit. I can confirm that I have Sprint VMM working and I don't get the annoying 9016 texts. I'm not sure if it works on other 2.3.4 ROMs, but I know for CM7.0.3, I was still getting the 9016 texts.

I flash it early today so I will see how battery is with normal use but so far it's good
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mkeyslehman:
I think, repeatedly, you've completely missed my point. I

NEVER

claimed VVM didn't work. It did. Like a charm. I was referring

explicitly

to the SMS notifications, which Yadnom answers directly:

Which means I wasn't the only one who had this issue, and was not the only one who found it annoying. Thanks for the update Yadnom, I appreciate :)

******

Also, as far as Handcent / GoSMS are concerned, I've tried both. Repeatedly. And I want to like GoSMS, I really do. But I hate the iPhone bubble chat display, which means I have to run GoSMS in Custom mode with Inbox customization enabled. When doing so, as surprising as the results seem, Handcent seems to run smoother and more consistent. For me. So I'm sticking with Handcent for the time being.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ch1naski:
I know that REDLIST from the market used to work for 9016 texts. The free version lets you add only one contact, and as long as you use that one contact for 9016, you're good.

VMM works fine for me. No issues with the 9016 texts as I no longer get them with this ROM.

I did have the phone reboot on me earlier today. I was using GPS with runtastic GPS coach app, the phone rebooted probably about 5 minutes after starting the app and logging data. I'm not sure if it was the GPS or the app. That was my first time and last time running that app. I did run Google maps with GPS after that to test and that ran fine for over 30 minutes.

After flashing this ROM, I haven't been able to get back into recovery. The phone works fine, I just can't get back into recovery...it hangs on the white HTC recovery.

Did you try getting into Hboot? Like powering down the phone, and holding down the volume down button and the power on button at the same time, then pressing the Home button when you get to the menu. If that doesn't work, I may be stumped.. have you tried the reboot into recovery option directly from the Rom Manager application menu? I guess I'm assuming you are using CWM.... well, lemme know if that works or not. Good night and good luck.

If you have any problems understanding how to do it, ask. I have a pretty clear understanding of what needs to be done. If you are not able to even get into Hboot, then you may really be stuck.. if you can, try to recall what could have possibly happened.. Did you maybe format recovery? Honestly, if you're still unable to get anything to work, I would just take it into the Sprint store and say something like "My nephew got a hold of my phone and now it won't boot at all". They generally either won't understand or care and for the few who would understand, have probably rooted and modded their own phones. Just some advice. You would obviously then have to reroot and all that though..
