[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zedray:
Changing screen density isn't the same as changing resolution. Apps choose which icons to show depending on the "screen-density" value reported by the device. So higher density devices will have larger and more detailed icon graphics, etc.

As far as saving battery life, the screen typically uses most battery which varies slightly depending on the brightness setting. One root user found he could save battery by only showing red colours (requires changes to the display driver).

Shrinking the screen like in Note 3 will save energy...anybody found a way how to do this in other phones? application?

[Milestone XT720 General] eejin2:
hello guys. usually when phone's plugged in to my computer for file transfer or after that, i cant use the phone. when i press the power button, the screen stays black and i cant touch anything, while the 4 touch buttons are lit up. its very annoying as i have to do the battery-yank thing and turn the phone on again. any solutions?:confused:
[Milestone XT720 General] eSu.Matix:
Yeah. Same think happened to me when my SD Card had bad sectors. Just buy a cardreader and scan and attempt to repair'em. If that doesn't help, just make a back up on your PC, format your SD Card and backed it up.

Hope it works for you too...

P.S. When I was using with my phone during file transfer and my phone freezes, it doesn't go black but stays with the current "frame" and just the LED lights. I don't know what's in your case.
[Milestone XT720 General] Woody:
Check this thread out. It is pretty much the same thing.

Also you can use Androidini Open Recovery to check your sectors on the SD card. Works for me.

Is this rom able to download mms
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rubyknight:
Wait till the rom comes out and test it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cybertimber2007:
Ok just so we are clear, this is based on

A) AOSP source code

B) Cyanogenmod source code (which is based on AOSP... but is *not* AOSP code)

Also curious about FM radio since the Hero doesn't have a radio tuner?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ch1naski:
This rom is ported to quite a few different devices, so there will be some features that don't apply to the hero.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] bravo1565:
How is this rom running?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bdcrim:
It is not posted to download yet.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rubyknight:
A) Correct

B) Err... I don't recall reading that in the op?

The original omgb ported to the hero was pure AOSP source with no cyanogen at all as far as I could see... His omfgb rom has cyanogen features but all this one includes is the Tmobile Theme Chooser (which most people seem to think is Cmod only...). If the hero ever got an official 2.3 OTA this rom would be it.

Edit: The simplest way to put it is that this rom is to Cyanogenmod 7 what Aospmod 2.2 was to Cyanogenmod 6.

Can someone tell me what the size on disk is for this ROM or what FR settings they are using?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] drlzanej:
64 mb 691\345...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PMDColeslaw:
It's only 64mb on the system partition? Also, what gapps are you using?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
im using these

http://dev-host.org/58vtmdxqqwoe/gapps-hero-20110522.zip
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
i was reflashing this rom and i see that it says it restored GAPPs so do we need to flash gapps i never seen this in a rom

wait for it to boot without flashing gapps to see what hapends

EDIT the gapps is built in to this rom i didnot have to flash gapps just flashed rom after wiping everything booted up and the green android you touch was there did setup and market was there. first time i have ever seen this in a AOSP rom
[Hero CDMA Android Development] davewinkwink:
smooth?

how fast is it? smoooth?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
so far its very smooth im using adw ex still setting up with some tweaks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Houndog101:
Did you have any problem getting it to boot?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ehiggins:
It booted fine for me. I did a full wipe coming from Jaybob 7-8 build. It's smooth. I'm using launcher pro with the honeycomb 3dicon theme.

I haven't tested the navigation or the golf caddie but I imagine that it'll be a good week before I need either one.

edit: navigation constantly lost gps signal but my phone tends to do that on all roms.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Houndog101:
Thanks for the reply, I guess its my phone, I have till next May before I can upgrade..:(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rubyknight:
I haven't flashed it yet (dang boss keeps calling) so I'm not sure what kernel is in it but have you tried flashing an alternative kernel with a lower clock speed?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Houndog101:
Yes Bud, 2 others, Deca and jaybobs..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PMDColeslaw:
That is odd... Can you look at the OS partition and tell me what size it is? aospCMod with gapps is only 78mb
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rubyknight:
Does it do that with any rom you try to flash? Unless you did something really strange to your phone you shouldn't have problems... Have you tried RUUing back to stock and rerooting it from scratch?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ehusidic:
Whats the difference between this rom and the omfgb1.3 rom performance wise? Any known bugs or random reboots?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mattlebla:
Is there a way for me to add an option to clear vm indiciator? I have the chronic phantom vm but can clear it in the deck rom and aosp cm7 rom. I assume that this option is not part of base aosp so it won't be part of this? Again I dont know s#it but am willing to try to change some things on my own phone to get this option back.

I like this rom a lot btw! Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ehiggins:
perhaps try downloading the zip again perhaps you received a bad download
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
even though i don't use my hero anymore, i am glad to see this rom come to fruition, it's been a long time since we have had a totally AOSP rom
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrtimo:
this rom seems to be working great. Not exactly sure if it is any faster than other roms out there. It did loose GPS signal after a while (but no reboot). Any recommendations on a kernel to install with this? Seems like that would speed it up more.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirtroad:
great rom! all working i believe. are the wallpapers not for heroc device? the folder is showing, but no papers are in it?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Houndog101:
I have not tried ruu on this rom yet, I have on others and then some would boot. I also tried several d/l's and the results were the same, gets stuck on white HTC screen. I also tried "fixflash" and that would'nt work. I',m running "update-cm-7.1.0-RC1-Heroc-signed.zip" with no problems.. Thanks for your replys..

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Houndog101:
Well I've exhausted all my options for getting this rom to boot. I did an RUU, rerooted, reflashed recovery, wiped,wiped,wiped all, downloaded the rom on a different computer,, still gets stuck at the white HTC screen..:confused:

Will it have transferring of apps to SD? ?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] r2DoesInc:
Kernel is the same one in cm afaik.

And ya. Gb has native a2sd
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
I think we both have whacky phones. I have issues like your do, but for some reason some roms work fine, others, white boot screen.

I was able to load omfgb 7/20 no problem after finding out that I was over taxing my system partition. 7/21 wouldn't boot. Jaybob's has worked well for me, but some of the others i have had real problems. I found by using FixFlash that some files will corrupt during the flash from the sd card. It's too bad it wasn't helpful to you. It adds a little hassle, but it has always worked when I needed it. There are so many good options now that I just use what works.

I am excited to give this a whirl. I like the omfgb too. Nice work r2 and company.

I've tried different kernals.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
anyway you could compile a version of this that is Odex'd?

imagine how snappy it will be then
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rubyknight:
This rom is my new daily for sure :) Thank you so much R2! It seems much faster than most CM roms but it comes in a nice easy to swallow package with no bloat and the god mode looks like it's going to be great. No issues at all so far, everything is running fast and smooth. I'm even running Go Launcher perfectly which is something I've been trying unsuccessfully on every rom i've ever used.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rubyknight:
Which recovery are you using? The 3.0.2.8 seems to be the most common one. Supposedly it does a better job than older recoveries of wiping everything. Beyond that the I have no idea.. I've never heard of that problem.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skyliner342007:
When wiping correct me if I'm wrong...

Wipe data/factory reset

Wipe cache

Wipe dalvik cache

install rom

Wipe battery info

Reboot

Correct me if I'm wrong...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zaep0b:
Ok. Problem.

It boots up to the welcome screen - then reboots.

I am on an endless reboot loop.

every time it reboots at the welcome screen.

any ideas?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
Wipe system too
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skyliner342007:
Wiping the system...that's under advanced right...that wont wipe out my sd card will it....maybe that's why my mms doesn't work cause I've never did that.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skyliner342007:
Referring to my post on what to wipe...I noticed in clockwork recovery that under mounts and storage there is format system, format cache, format data...what's the difference between that and the main wipe system, cache at the main menu??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skyliner342007:
And is that what you mean by wipe system??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rubyknight:
Edit: Format data, system, cache, and boot. That's the step your missing.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skyliner342007:
Do u think that is why my mms isn't working....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skyliner342007:
All those options.s are under the mounts and storage not advanced but I under stand what your saying....am I right...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skyliner342007:
Thank you for your help
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ch1naski:
I am 99% sure your problem will be solved by formatting. Just be sure to NOT format sdcard, and you will be golden. Formatting = wiping.

Oh, and do a completely fresh install. If you have a backup that you made while not getting sms, it will still not work. Fresh install.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] skyliner342007:
Thanks bro
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skyliner342007:
So I did the main wipes like I normally do then I did the format wipes a step that I have been missing...the rom flashed great...but I still can't send mms....I don't know what else to do...:-(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ehiggins:
you are on 3g when you try to send? I think my data roaming needs to be enabled too
[Hero CDMA Android Development] roundaway:
Since you appear to be having problems across multiple ROMS I'd recommend the next time you do a clean install of a ROM, before logging in to Google, go to Settings, Privacy and uncheck Automatic Restore and Back up my data. Potentialy an old app or something is being added back to the phone by Google. Just a thought. Oh, Titanium Backup is the heat!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bravo1565:
Just flash this early today and notice it wasn't as smooth as I expected and seemed a little choppy

2.3.5 build tonight
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fredrick1213:
Any changes other than the fact that it's 2.3.5?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] prattleon:
This ROM seems to be pretty smooth so far. I have a few problems/questions though:

1. I cannot get Google Voice to show up in my voice mail service settings.

2. It seems like incoming calls are all being sent directly to my GV voicemail and not causing my phone to ring.

3. the top bar in the gmail app is much larger than usual, and I don't know how to change it.

4. my apps are not showing up in the market despite fixing it with titanium backup market doctor.

5. my backed up apps did not automatically install from google like they normally do after installing a new ROM (and yes, I did install GAPPS)

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] old.ghost:
Is there any big change between 2.3.4 and 2.3.5?

BTW, when 2.3.5 be ready today? Many thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rubyknight:
Woohoo! Can't wait :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
it sound like it didnt get a good wipe. i would rewipe and/or even format everything but SDCARD. give that a shot:cool:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zaep0b:
So, today I tried yet again.

Wiped everything except SD.

Installed rom from newest version of CWM....... same ****.

It boots all the way to the Welcome screen (where you calibrate, etc.) and then boot loops.

This is getting frustrating.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] prattleon:
I wiped and formatted everything and reinstalled OMGB 1.2.0. i'm having the same problems. Some quirks I can handle, but a phone that doesn't ring is a problem.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zaep0b:
Update your profile. See if that fixes it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] prattleon:
Can I update my profile within this ROM or do I need to flash a different ROM to do that?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zaep0b:
good point. I forgot AOSP is unlikely to have profile update in settings.

I can't seem to get the rom booted to verify.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] prattleon:
I've had no trouble getting the ROM running. maybe you'll have better luck with 1.2.1.

I flashed my nandroid backup of the ROM i had been using successfully prior to this and google voice is missing in the voicemail settings as well. Calls are still going straight to vm. So i'm going to flash a non AOSP ROM and update profile and PRL then reflash one of my nandroid backups.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] prattleon:
I realized the problem. I was testing from my work phone which I have listed as forwarding phone in GV. Even though it is not currently checked to forward calls, it will not cause my phone to ring. So my phone does ring, but GV is still not an option in voice mail settings. I guess this is because of the GV/Sprint integration. Sorry about the confusion, and thanks for the help. I'm glad I can use this ROM. it seems to be working quite well. The only quirk that remains, other than my apps not being automatically restored by google (not a big deal), is the strange giant buttons on the gmail app. I can live with it. it's just odd.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ehusidic:
When is 1.2.1 going up?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
You need to flash a sense rom in order to so your updates. You could also use the nandroid you probably did when you rooted.

Flashing IS a gateway drug!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
When you are wiping data and cache, are you also formatting three system partition as well to clean that out? In mounts and storage I format boot, system, cache, and data (2-3 times) to make sure everything is wiped and no dingleberries are left over. Are you using firerat's? I sometimes will get a boot loop, but it usually will work itself out after one or to tries.

Flashing IS a gateway drug!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] old.ghost:
I have the same question:D

[Hero CDMA Android Development] fredrick1213:
This has been the fastest ROM on my Hero by far! All other ROMs that I had would cause Go Launcher to be sluggish but with this one it is pretty smooth. Thanks for the work done on this! I can't wait for the 1.2.1 build to come out!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ohbuckeyeman:
R2, I'm using the 1.2.0 and loving it. The title says it is now 1.2.1, but that file isn't available for download. Was wondering if your build bot missed the heroc?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rubyknight:
The 1.2.1 rom is only uploaded for 2 or 3 of his supported devices so I'm guessing there might be a few issues with 2.3.5 support for all devices. And according to his signature hes not even posting on XDA at all anymore so you might wanna look up his website and keep up to date from there instead of here.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Hammerfest:
not only that but apparently 1.2.2 is out even, OMG OMG

lol, scrubs...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
1.2.2 is up for the Heroc! I'm glad it's the weekend so I can try it out. Thanks r2...r2?r2?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Hammerfest:
Yeppers! I am running the 1.3.1 EXTREME NIGHTLY from Aug 2nd, some FC's here and there, but im sure there would be alot less if I could figure out how to get it to use my SD swap partition (no damnit not a swap file that those ****ty apps off the market give you, a swap PARTITION)...

It was EZ on my HD2... cant for the life of me figure it out on the HeroC...

BLEH...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fredrick1213:
Thanks r2! I've been waiting for the new build!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
Somewhere in thoughtlesskyle's sensible salsa thread I believe there are instructions for setting up swap on the heroc. It is buried in there somewhere or there is a link to thread in there. Are you trying to speed things up or are you looking to make more room for apps to run internally?
