Although I have not yet tried deck, I have tried aosp's , cm7 (not the latest rc, tho), evervolv, and jaybob's. I would say that out out those, jaybob's was the most hassle-free. Just make sure to flash the .29 kernel so to avoid camera issues (which the .35 tends to have ).

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattlebla:
I have been on both. Although I used deck longer both Jaybob's and deck were both equally smooth and hassle free. I recently moved to the most recent CM7 release (not nightly) and love it. It's my new daily driver.

Good luck!

How, would anyone in general or q&a section be able to properly answer that question? And not to mention as promptly as you all just did.

at this point my question has been

answered already thanks a lot guys the heroc community is my favorite.

Just a side note. How do I get rid of the post since its bothering a few people. I think op should be able to delete all somehow right?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ch1naski:
Your post in the dev section didn't bother me at all, I just told you it was in the wrong section (as an afterthought...) because there had been quite a bit of hoopla going on lately over that subject (non-dev related posts in the dev section) ... Not so much in the hero c threads, but still. as for getting answered, a lot of knowledgeable people read the q&a section simply because they like helping. You would definitely get answered, maybe not quite as promptly, but definitely.

You can ask a mod to delete the post if you like.

we are here to help thats what xda is for as long as u dont post questions in development your fine if u have a specific question about a rom post it in that roms thread and youll get help alot faster and if it has to do with a bug it helps developers fix the rom to make it better. so please just dont start new threads in development asking questions.

Cool..cool.. anywho I hear ya on the bigger and badder phones. I'm on evo shift now and love it. When I was on heroc still the best rom imo was aosps froyo. Might very well be still. But gf has heroc now and I want to make sure her phone can keep up with mine. honestly the hero gets better cell service then my shift does. anyways back to the point at hand.. The heroc scene blew back up and I'm excited about it. these deck roms have one hell of a reputation from what I'm gathering. But jaybobs sort of specializing in this phone vs the mass produced roms of kush. I wish I could grab some more opinions from you guys if you have the time.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ch1naski:
if we make a thread inside the dev section for answering questions it would defeat the purpose of THIS q&a section, wouldn't it.......one way to find out which rom is the most popular would be to scan the number of posts in each rom's thread. For instance, look at the amount of activity in the aospcmod gb thread. Easily the most popular rom.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ch1naski:
For simplicity and stability, jaybob's aosp with the .29 kernel is pretty good. Very vanilla.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hockeyfamily737:
I don't believe that's a failure of the system, but a failure of your question. Let me explain..... I saw your question & chose not to answer because for one, my experience with those roms on my Hero is in no way relevant to whetheror not your girlfriend will like them, and for two each of those roms have their own threads with all of the information you could possibly need to make an educated decision.

Folks this is a sad day in american history, one of your fellow phone brothers has fallen. After surviving many falls and drops, and even a malicious baseball like throw by my now ex gf, he has finally succumb to what it is a place for no return for many smartphones, the pool.... Even after being submerged for only 10 seconds, it still wont turn on after a day of drying out, but i still have my fingers crossed:(. so wish me luck guys

[Thunderbolt General] undroath2death:
did you try white rice?
[Thunderbolt General] astefanik:
yea, well i tried rice but it wasnt white. and i read that the microwave thing is horrible for the phone.
[Thunderbolt General] undroath2death:
yeah white rice has always worked for me, but i usually put it in rice right away, dropped my OG droid in the pool once, immediately took the battery out and put all the parts of the phone in white rice over night and it worked like new the next day
[Thunderbolt General] Skynyrd420:
I think its a solid idea to let it dry out for at least three days in rice...and NOT try to power it on until its dry(or assumed) to be...water on the circuits+power is no good if it arcs over or fries a vital phone part...I know it sucks being without your b.a. smartphone for more than 5 min, let alone a few days. But, it saves u 90$...well, its saved me a couple times anyways
[Thunderbolt General] GeekDrop:
If instant white rice doesn't work, try instant oatmeal. ;) (Seriously)

It might be a little more absorbent than rice, but it's also more powdery, so be prepared to blow the sh*t out of it afterwards to get it all out of the cracks.

Or cat litter. (even that crystal kind they sell now).

You can buy these silica dessicant packs online that supersuck out moisture. Buy a couple and keep on hand for this kind of "emergency" is a good idea for the future.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yossi_s1:
Hi every!

a friend of mine gave me his X10 cuz he had many problems with it, mainly it was slow.

now the most important thing for him is games and speed (mainly touch responsiveness)

one of the games he wants to play is Assassin Creed, I saw a video on Youtube of someone playing this game and he uses TW ROM,

when i try to flash that ROM on my friend's device in boots and then few secs later restarts, over and over.

i cant figure why it happens, as im using the right BB. help!

besides this, i tried many other ROMs, but Assassin Creed worked on neither of them, i would think that this game is not meant to run on this device but i saw that Youtube video...

last thing, i loaded EWJET ROM, was amazing, everything was really fast and touch was really responsive compared to stock and other roms, but in quadrant it got only 1000 pt, while in TripNMIUI ROM it got 1500 pt, even tho it felt much slower and less responsive.

why is that?

Thanks!!!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridaki:
I think just there, you solved your own problem.

Is Quadrant that important to your friend?

Does he want a fast phone for gaming

or a phone that scores high in Quandrant? :confused:

The thing with Quadrant is that even though is commonly used,

it's easily "cheatable" and bottom line is, it should be used as a reference

and not as an evaluation point for user experience.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yossi_s1:
Oh well, I thought that quadrant measures FPS which basically tells you how well games will run, but then, high FPS with ****ed up touch is pointless...

Thanks for your answer
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridaki:
It does measure FPS but it's only a part of the tests conducted,

so the results do not mean anything FPS-wise.

And FPS are kernel-related, indepedent of custom ROMs,

so you could try using Z's latest kernel that raises the FPS to about 48-50 max.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yossi_s1:
Thanks very much for your help, I am actually using zkernel which is really good...

so i guess no idea why the restart loop happens, or anything about games compatibility.

anyway, u made me wounder... you said that i can use zkernel...

is there a way to flash only kernel to use with specific ROM? or that isnt a good idea/possible at all.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yossi_s1:
Update:

At the end I loaded MIUI ROM 1.7.01 with zKernelbb67

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1152555

pretty good ROM, runs pretty good, with it i installed chainfire3D from the market, and now all the games are working pretty good, so everything sorted out.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridaki:
Glad you sorted it out! I also use MIUI with the zkernel overclocked and games run really smooth!

Then again I mostly play Cut The Rope and Angry Birds (2D games)! LOL! :D

Hi all,

I got Ubuntu running on my Asus Transformer via the chroot method. Now, I installed Eclipse and wanted to start developing my Android Apps on the tablet.

Problem is the Android SDK tools are compiled for x86.

Does anybody know how to compile them for ARM or maybe even have a download link?

It'd be sooo cool to be able to dev on the Transfomer as it has this awesome physical keyboard dock! :)

Any ideas are highly appreciated.

Thanks,

Chris
[Android Software Development] bigsupersquid:
I also run a chroot (debian squeeze) on my optimus v. you're lucky to have a keyboard port! I'm stuck with a stupid touch-keyboard without programmer keys.

I have looked for an ARM-based SDK myself as well, with no success.

some of the binaries would be useless on-device without usb-otg host mode, like adb and fastboot, but on capable devices those are needed too.

you already have an ARM-gcc toolchain too, so that piece is unnecessary as well.

maybe going through the SDK manually you could find exactly what parts are binaries to see about finding specific replacements compiled for ARM, or at least source for them.

the rest of the SDK should be portable without mods, unless something's so picky it requires sun-java instead of open-java.

keep us posted!

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noob_2010:
I have to take my phone to Sprint because I have a Hugh phone bill from roaming calls under 450 unlimited plan. They said I was roaming on Verizon the whole month of June. I dunno what's the deal. And yes I have that Verizon 3g hack using the 00001 prl.

Question: should I update my Rom or no? Sprint has to check my phone to see if it was a problem on my end or their networks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrPremier:
I did it once had to downgrade and go back. Whatever you do don't update...you'll lose root

Sent from my Synergized Evo
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pnewgaard:
If you feel like it would be best to return to stock, (depending if your on Froyo or GB) and depending which root method you chose, just don't flash S-On and do a factory reset before you go in. They may reset your chip inside which controls the radios, prl's etc as they did with mine when I had the same issues. So if you are on GB, stay S-Off and then download custom recovery and begin flashing away again once out of Sprint.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cranbiz:
You were using a Verizon PRL and wonder why you were roaming on Verizon?

Pay the bill and change to a Sprint PRL.

If I were you I would return that to stock asap. You take it into Sprint that way it is, you may have more than a big phone bill.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
Umm, you were using the Verizon PRL, and you dont know why you were roaming? That's like putting diesel fuel in your Mustang, then going to Ford and complaining that your car wont run, when you know it's YOUR fault.

If you don't do it, they will. The FIRST thing techs do to diagnose problems is update your phone.

And I'm guessing you are rooted too, so you need to unroot and return to stock before you take it to sprint, or they could void your warranty. And obviously, flash back to a sprint prl. If they find out you were doing this, they will terminate you immediately.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] runcool:
Sorry for all these wrong answers. Federal law states that the phone is yours. YOU PAID FOR THE PHONE! They do not have the right to ask for you to take your phone into a store to prove anything. Also, their actions are actually illegal. it is a illegal request. If you have some money. go ahead and take sprint to court and you will win. your actions were wrong, but by law... what sprint is doing is illegal. Adding illegal charges on your bill. There is no such thing as roaming,... remember. That's what they advertised.

However, if you are stupid enough to take it into a store. IT MUST BE A CORP STORE! you must unroot your phone. you must have them SIGN A LEGAL DOCUMENT SAYING WHAT THEY ARE AND WHAT THEY ARE NOT ALLOWED TO DO WITH THE PHONE. THEY DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO TELL YOU TO UPGRADE YOUR PRL FILE! ALL ROOTING DOES IS VOID THE WARRANTY! if you pay for a warranty, than you're an idiot. lol
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
OK, wow....just wow.

Actually, they have EVERY RIGHT to ask you to bring your phone in for service. Your phone has a warranty, and the warranty states if you need service you must bring it into sprint. Simple as that. It's NOT illegal to ask someone to bring your phone in for service.

HAHAHAHAHAHA good luck with that. You would need MILLIONS of dollars to actually try and take on a giant corporation like sprint.

Wow, did you even read ANY of this thread? He ADMITTED he was using the Verizon PRL, therefore he WAS roaming the entire month. It was HIS fault. He knew that by using the Verizon PRL, you are roaming.

Umm, what? Yes there is. When you are using another carrier's signal, that's roaming.

Umm, no, sprint is NOT required to sign any legal documents. YOU are taking your phone to THEM to fix it. If you tried to tell them to sign a legal document, they would kick you out. And yes, they DO have the right to update his PRL file, as that is the SOURCE of the problem. If he wants his phone to be fixed, that is the solution.

That was by far the DUMBEST post I have ever read on this entire site.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jfree3000:
I hope you aren't practicing law anywhere.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cranbiz:
You are something else buddy.

OK, you are correct that it is your phone to do what you want with it. That is one of 2 correct things you wrote.

Sprint is asking him to take his phone in for service because it appears something is wrong with the phone (there is, he is using a Verizon PRL). While this is not desirable for the OP, it is Sprint looking out for him (and themselves). Read the posts about people getting the letter about service termination for too much roaming data. Sprint is actually being proactive in trying to help out a subscriber. So get off your high horse. You are wrong.

Read your contract, it is their right to terminate your service (without a ETF) for too much roaming (roaming is a privilege, not a right) you can roam nationwide but not all the time.

All they are doing is trying to figure out why he is roaming all the time (and with a PRL that say's "HEY MR TOWER, I'M A VERIZON PHONE. LET ME ON YOUR TOWER ALL THE TIME" he will) As he is using the Verizon PRL, he will roam all the time. Have I made my point to you yet! He IS NOT using the correct setup for Sprint. All Sprint is trying to do is assist this subscriber in determining if he has a faulty phone.

So, for the only other correct point you had, Rooting does void your warranty. A corporate store will normally overlook it for a lot of things and cannot reject to service your phone if it is rooted. They do, however have the option of not honoring the warranty.

Now, if the OP does not want to be terminated, I highly recommend that he unroot and flash a stock rom with the correct PRL for Sprint. Then take it in for the look see.

Again, it's his phone, he CAN do what he wants, but it's Sprints network. They have a right to terminate you if you can't stay on their network most of the time. Instead of terminating him right now for 30 days of constant roaming on Verizon, they are trying to help him out. Only we know that it was his fault all along.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jimmy34742:
When I do software update, "Check for update" returns "No update available." When I connect to Kies on my laptop, I get a message telling me of an available update from

PDA:KF1 / PHONE:KE4 / CSC:KE7 (BRI)

to

PDA:KF4 / PHONE:KE4 / CSC:KF4 (BRI)

My current kernel version is KF1. I'm ignorant as to why Kies's message associates "KF1" with "PDA" and not with "PHONE", but maybe that's normal. I'm rooted with CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OJV_KF1-v4.0-CWM4, so if I update to KF4 I'd have to use a different CF-Root, and CF says he hasn't personally tested KF4, so that's a little unsettling.

Before I update via Kies, any thoughts on this inconsistency between what Kies says and what the phone says about the availability of an update, or on anything else I'm not understanding?
