Thats understandable but ADW is not the default launcher which comes

with GB. If I am not mistaken it was added by CM team maybe thats why

a lot of people ran into issues with it.

In case you want to go for option 3 or any other free launchers from the market

I would recommend you uninstall ADW completely with the help of Titanium back up. Option 2 will do that for you automatically if you run the file given in the

post. as I have already mentioned it is the best option =]

Please do let me know if any of these options resolved your issues or not.

Regards
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
LauncherPro runs way smoother on this ROM than ADW does. It's been that way in my experience ever since the very first build of CM6. ADW (not ADW EX) just doesn't like our Heros.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] waqasr:
I agree, that was also my experience. I use launcher pro plus now and like

it a lot but The default launcher for some reason was the fastest for me I believe

due to having hardware acceleration (I read that on forum some where) or something.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skyliner342007:
I've had some crashes on some apps. I go to fix permissions in rom manager but it keeps saying an error occurred....should I uninstall then reinstall???
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
Forget all that other stuff people posted, just go to cm settings and lock home in memory.

EDIT: Also disable bitmap asset purging as I believe that has shown to mess up ADW
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jamega2f:
so basically i can use launcherpro as my main and only launcher by using titanium backup to delete adw?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jamega2f:
Locking home in memory will fix the crashes? along with the disabling of Bitmap?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] waqasr:
Yes you can do that, download a free app called "HomeSwitcher"

from market which lets you change your launcher on the fly and also

lets you set it as default. Uninstalling ADW with the help of TitaniumBackUp

will just help you remove ADW completely so you dont get into any issues again

with ADW related crap!!! Even though if you want you can leave it there but I wont recommend it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] waqasr:
Bro try launcher Pro and believe you me you wont regret it.

Did you try the fix permissions option yet with ADW??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
Android will use by default the only Home Launcher installed if you remove any others. I delete ADW and use LauncherPro only because I just rather have my device clean of any apks I don't use.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jamega2f:
i actually just done it phone rebooted about to attempt to remove adw
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jamega2f:
thanks man, im going to give it a try i just hate having two launchers but now i can do different
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
So, after clutching to my smooth-UI-framerate CM6.2 for hte longest time, I finally took the dive and went for it with this. The only thing that still bugs me is how chopping the notifications drawer is, but other than that, it's been a superb experience.

What about battery life though? Because before, I was using Deca's battery tweak, but obviously, that went with his kernel, which I was also using. What's the ideal way to do that here?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
Well, you should understand that having 2 launchers really means nothing as long as you set one as the default, it's just that there's nothing wrong with only having one and physically removing the apk of the other.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jamega2f:
really maybe it was just me, my phone move really sluggish when i would install go launcher adw ex or launcher pr so thats why i usually stick to what comes with the rom
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
It's not crashing unless it's asking you to wait or force close. It's simply closing when you run our if memory. Make sure your autokiller settings aren't too aggressive and I guarantee what I posted will fix it.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jamega2f:
i done it guys im officially running launcher pro as my main and only launcher hopefully it runs smoother than adw im looking forward to seeing how it performs, thanks for all the help
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
Disabling bitmap asset purging just makes it run smoother.

posted via tappa tappa tappa
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jamega2f:
i think my autokiller may have been the problem since i had to aggressive, think im going to change that end future problems
[Hero CDMA Android Development] waqasr:
Your most welcome, So you did fix permissions and then removed ADW?

that was option one to try but I think you didnt understand me but no worries

Launcher pro is way to go, if you get into any issues just do fox permissions with

your new set up and most of the time it fixes your force close issues!!

God4bids if this fails we still have option 2 =]

Good luck and keep us posted.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jamega2f:
yea first thing i did was fix permissions via rom manager then reboot use titanium backup to delete adw after i installed launcher pro and when i went back to home launcher was my main launcher
[Hero CDMA Android Development] waqasr:
Actually you misunderstood me.

It was option number one, There was a good chance it would have fixed

your ADW issues with running fix permissions with it and trying it out for some time

before giving up on it and moving onto option number 2 or option number 3.

What you did is, you mixed option number 1 and option 3 together!!

They were totally separate options or suggestions that you could have

tried but no issues. maybe I was not clear at explaining since English is

not my first language.

I am sure using launcher pro will fix your problem if it doesn't then try to run

fix permissions once again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skyliner342007:
For some reason when I go to fix permissions via rom manager I get an error that says...error occurred fixing permissions...I'm not sure..I can't uninstall either..help
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
I don't know.

I have my Autokiller set to Aggressive because I'm an extremely minimal user of my phone. I don't use it nearly that often, and when I do, I'm not really multi-tasking.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] waqasr:
Please state what your issue is and what you cant uninstall?

Also what Rom you are using?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] norm12:
Cm settings and then performance. I think cpu settings is what you want. Does most of the same stuff as deca's tweak
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skyliner342007:
I'm using the new cyanogen 7.1 RC and its the rom manager I can't uninstall
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skyliner342007:
It also says Rom manager is an update and can't be moved to external media...could this be why I can't uninstall. My main issue is that I can't fix permissions cause I get an error every time
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jamega2f:
Ohhhh I definitely understand now, but launcherpro is running really smooth so no worries thanks

I don't want to uninstall Rom manager and someone told me that running fixed permissions fixes alot of force close issues that could pop up
[Hero CDMA Android Development] waqasr:
So basically you are having force close issues, what launcher are you using?

What Rom are you using? Please provide detailed information so some one

can help you.

Regards
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skyliner342007:
I apologize for not providing enough info :-(... I'm using whatever launcher came with 7.1 RC which is also the rom I'm using. Really the only app I'm having force close is memory booster. The other issue I'm having is when I attempt to fix permissions in rom manager...it gives me an error.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] waqasr:
No problem, Did you flash CM7.1 on a previous version or did you do a clean install meaning wipe data?

Do you have Titanium Back up installed?

I never use the Memory programs or any of the task killer programs, IMO they

are useless. They make your phone slow and kill the battery time as well.

You should try these to options and see if they work for you, they

are the same options I gave the other person on this forum

1. Try to use the default launcher which comes with GB (probably best solution)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=933517

(Very fast, Smooth and most stable)

2. Try free Launcher pro from market. (easy to just download and install)

I would recommend if you want to go with option 2, download and install

Titanium Back up and uninstall ADW with it.

Any veteran users, I really need some help with ideal settings for maximum battery. I am a very minimal user of my phone, and my phone does not do 768 (max is 748)

Any help is appreciated.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
I've found that smartass gives me better battery if my phone gets used moderately or while I run my tracks while biking. Ondemand works better if your phone is just sitting in your pocket, but I feel it drains faster while you use it.

I believe that you need to have your min clock higher with ondemand if you play music while the phone sleeps. Set the max to whatever you feel services you and put the min all the way down until it misbehaves then raise it.

posted via tappa tappa tappa
[Hero CDMA Android Development] waqasr:
Do you have SetCPU or you want to use the built in power settings?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
smartass isn't available in the CM7 governor list.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:
It is available on mine and I'm using stock kernel. Then again may be different cause I build my own from source, but doubt it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] GeezyAF:
Try 176/691 on ondemand/interactive.

Smartass may give you better battery, but that's dependant on how you use your phone.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
It's in the nightly builds.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
Ah. I'm waiting for a few more changes in the changelog before moving from the RC back to the nightlies, because right now they're really similar.

Also, I realized I forgot to mention (which probably explains my lack of smartass) that I'm using jaybob's .35. I'm guessing he doesn't have smartass.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
If you are having battery problems with .35 I suggest you go back to stock as I've only seen one post recently complaining about battery life.

As far as your settings, I tried smartass, interactive, ondemand each for 2 weeks at a time and I recommend you do the same and figure out what works for you, smartass worked for me, ymmv.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skyliner342007:
Thank you. I will try these options and report back with status updates.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cjdalessio:
I have gone back to 176/528/ondemand on the shipped cm7kernel. Interactive was crashing randomly listening to music and doing anything else (rather would grind to a halt making me batt pull)

My phone is happy to clock as high as i want but I don't use the speed and it heats the phone up a lot which hurts battery

Batt isn't the best I've seen. Something since build 97 seems to have hurt it a bit. Haven't flashed back to verify.

I saw no particular gains with the newer kernel so I just got lazy flashing. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] XGodOfModzX:
this rom is doing good, can't install nightlies because I have cwm 2.5.0.7. Also there are boxes replacing some characters like symbols. but I love the status bar on the bottom :D

[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
i use 2.5.0.7 and use the nightlies, there is no reason 2.5.0.7 should stop you. Boxes usually mean a missing font, did you delete one to try to save space.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] XGodOfModzX:
No I never deleted any, but I did use gscripts to switch to Segoe UI font to match with how I'm turning android to windows phone 7 as much as possible while still mantaining Android.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
I know there were issues with smartass on s0be's .35 kernel, bit interactive and on demand were ok. On demand was found by many to help with the camera issues. There we only 2 schedulers as well: noop and bfq ( of you happen to look using deca's battery tweak); i used to use it on s0be's, I haven't tried on Jaybob's, but I believe I have used it on every other .29 and have never ran into an issue except space in my system partition. Just using the one built into the settings works fine unless you really into profiles and changing the scheduler.

I'm getting periodic, random-seeming reboots in 7.1.0-RC1. Happily, these mostly seem to occur when I'm not using the phone at all - I notice it most either when it's in my pocket and I feel it vibrate and display the white HTC logo as it boots up, or when it's plugged in (to a charger) on my desk. So far I've never had it crash / panic while I'm using it. What can I do to diagnose the problem - are there logs on the phone or something?

Data drops here, too. My wife's phone runs LiquidSense and has no issues, my phone (same phone, same room, but running CM 7.1) drops fairly often, and data is almost always slow. Same radio version.

One problem I'm having is with folders. Sometimes, I click on a folder (containing 12 shortcuts), it makes the click noise, but the folders refuse to open. No idea why, but this is a problem since CM 7.1, as the 7.0.x didn't have these problems at all. Even tried to wipe/reinstall, and same thing... Randomly, the folders will just stop working.

Then, on PORTRAIT ONLY, the stock 2.3.4 onscreen keyboard will pop up and immediately close. Only seen it happen in the browser, but it's happen several times now. The only way to get it to function normally again is to turn the phone, let the keyboard pop up on landscape, then switch back to portrait. Works fine until it decides to spaz out again... Could be hours, could be days. It's really random.

Flashed CM7.1 RC1 when I gave my Hero to my son, prior to that I'd been running older CM7 (7.0.2), AospCmod, or Deck's rom. I have never ever had random reboot problems (other then nav reboots with Aosp) with the Hero until this version of CM. Rebooting several times a day now. I'm using the stock CM7 kernel and my settings are On Demand 264/691 (phone's stable to 748, but wanted to keep it down a bit so my boy doesn't overheat it lol), compcache @ 18%, JIT enabled (never been a problem before....but?), purging assests on, and VM heap @ 48. Going to try reflashing the rom & or switching to Jaybob's kernel (which ran fine with Deck's rom). Any other suggestions, or something I'm missing. I've read all 15 pages of the thread and have seen a couple of other people with reboot issues but no solutions posted.

***EDIT*** Flashed Jaybob's kernel and haven't had a reboot in almost 24 hours, but I suspect it was more due to wiping cache & Dalvik then actually changing the kernel.

Reboot when connecting USB for file transfer.

I have been running this rom for about 3-4 days now. Love the speed, and performance that I've experienced. Battery life seems to be much better than stock and the phone feels and appears snappier.

Only issue I've seen is that when I attempt to connect my phone via usb to mount the SD card for putting some files on it, my phone pauses, then reboots.

I've tried different usb cables, formatted/wiped the cache and still the same result.

This isn't a show stopper, since I can boot into recovery, and mount the sdcard that way to put files on it, or directly download them from the xda or other pages.

Just was hoping to see if others have the same issues.
