[Hero, G2 Touch General] Sulus1179:
Well I took the plunge and flashed MoDaCo's 2.2 ROM. Looks like you were right, you can flash ROMs if you've rooted your phone. However I'm still not sure about flashing radios if your phone is CID locked - I got the impression this wasn't possible from other threads I've read.

So go right ahead and flash ROMs till your hearts content - don't forget to do a backup 1st though, just incase.

One issue I have with the new ROM though, I can send SMS but can't view the threads afterwards (just says "loading") also when receiving SMS I can't see them. Me thinks some investigation is needed :(
[Hero, G2 Touch General] CombinedEffort:
I bought mine from Dial-a-phone with an Orange contract. It's Orange branded and was locked to the Orange SIM

I unlocked the phone with http://hero.unlock-now.com/sim-unlock-HTC-Hero/

adq (Andrew de Quincey, by any chance?) hadn't posted his CID unlock by then, so I know nothing about that.

I did flash generic / custom ROMS hoping it would unlock the phone - it didn't, but I could still use the Orange SIM with the generic ROMS. Not sure how flashing the radio would affect this - I would have thought it wouldn't

Yes.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] CombinedEffort:
No, rooting affects the *ROM* not the *phone*. Modaco's custom ROMs come pre-rooted.

I came from an iPhone 2G background where I was expecting to have to Jailbreak and unlock the phone before being able to do anything useful with it. This is not the case with the Hero. Out-of-the-box, you can boot the Hero to the bootloader and flash a custom ROM from there - VERY hacker friendly!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Temjin:
Ah! Now that makes a lot more sense :D Thanks CombinedEffort, I'm slowly learning ;)

Hi,

I am a noob to Android have been WM for many years. Anyway I tried to flash a new radio to my T-Mobile Hero, now its stuck on a picture of a box with a arrow pointing towards a phone. Its been like this for one hour now. I tried flashing using fastboot recovery from the sd card. I thought I had rooted the Hero but am not sure if it completed correctly. What can I do to get it powering up again?

When I press the power and back button just that picture appears for ten seconds and then the handset seems to turn off. No lights, nothing I have to remove the battery and then when I press anything the same picture appears.

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] phlo:
Hi,

try to get into recovery and reflash the radio

turn your phone off.

press Home+Power on and hold Home pressed.

Your phone should now go into recovery.

You should consider to install a more advanced recovery.

Here is a nice one.

Hi all:

I am going to rebuild the android source and flash the new generated image to my Hero for research purpose, right now I have read tons of information about rebuild source for Dream, but few for Hero. and For Dream, there is specific configuration containing information about dream-specific files under source directory, but no configuration for hero.

So I was wondering is there any standard steps for rebuilding kernel image for Hero? Seems like direct "make" won't work, anybody can share idea on this?

Thanks a lot.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] packetlss:
Currently HTC has not released the kernel source code for HTC Hero so we can't compile our own kernel.

HTC has said they are close to releasing the source though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] felikz:
can you prove that?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Drizzy Drake Rogers:
we can compile our own hero but the main problem is "is it going to work?"

im still working on custom boot.img
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lk_517:
I see. Thanks to you guy's reply

Drizzy Drake Rogers, hopefully you will get it done soon:)

I used to generate my boot.img like this, but failed finally:

download the update.zip in modaco custom ROM

unzip it

unpack boot.img, do whatever modification I want

repack it, zip it into update.zip, just replace the original boot.img

reboot with it

It simply didn't work, stuck in screen displaying "Android", that's all.

Donno if it's the same procedure as yours, just one reference. In theory, doing like this has nothing to do with source code, so it's strange to me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] behnaam:
Try to boot your boot.img through fastboot and read the console debug messages to find out what's wrong with the boot.img

I really need a compiled mkbootimg to repack the boot.img with, but all the one's in other threads are not up to date, therefore no --base parameter support which is the one thing missing for me to repack the modified boot.img.

Does anyone know how to stop Activesync from renaming my phone everytime i plug it in. When i plug it into WMDC on my laptop my phone keeps the name i gave it, yet when it is plugged into my desktop at work it is renamed HTC58. Can anyone help me?

Thanks, Sam
[General Topics] cmstackar:
Your work may automatically change the name. Maybe you can end your partnership, and enter the name you want when you start a new one.
[General Topics] robinsonsam:
I dont think it will as due to the nature of that i do for the company (not network admin) i need unrestricted access to the computers so i am not restricted by anything which is why i think its an issue with Activesync.

I don't use my phone for much, but I like it as a cool toy... I do a LOT of texting on it as well. I have been using PDAcorner's rom, but it seems to freeze up a lot... I do like using M2D though. Any other Roms you might recommend??

Choosing a ROM is a personal preference only you will know what you want, flash untill you find that ROM and then flash some more to try and better it good luck. :)

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] vinsonizer:
I have the MyTouch3g rooted with CM 4.0.4 and I am having an issue with my microphone volume. It works fine in calls for a few minutes, but then occasionally drops to being really quiet to where the person on the other end of the call can't hear me. Occasionally it comes back, but usually the other person hangs up, thinking they've lost the call.

Is this a common problem, and is there a software fix for it? I am pretty sure it happened with other versions of CM and my phone was rooted pretty soon after i got it, so i don't know if a stock image has the same issue.

Any help would be appreciated!
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] DaIronFist:

[Touch Pro2 CDMA] gehzumteufel:
Are you on the stock rom?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] DaIronFist:
yes on stock sprint rom. thanks
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] gehzumteufel:
It could have something to do with Sprint not setting up the MMS profile properly on their end. Call and *****. If you know someone that has a stock Touch Pro, Touch Diamond, Mogul, or 6700, it is pretty easy to get the settings. Basically you would open up a registry editor and navigate to the key below. Export it, then import it on your TP2. This will fool the MMS server to think your phone is one that can handle MMS sizes properly.

small mms pics

i have a sprint tp2 unlocked and using tmobile. since then all my mms pics are real small. so i cant call sprint cause im not with them and if i call tmobile they might not trouble shoot me cause i am using a sprint phone even by the esn#, so how do i fix it?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] gehzumteufel:
You are on the stock Sprint rom, and you are on Sprint. Have you called them and asked? One way you can ALWAYS test the sizes, is email yourself (number@sprintpaging.com or number@messaging.sprintpcs.com) an MMS. This will enable you to troubleshoot.

Are you on a custom rom?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] daylate:
can you post the registry settings...

i used this cab and it worked
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] ddubois:
For me, the MMS pics are fine; it's the MMS videos that are smaller than a postage stamp. The CAB attached to the previous message did not help.

I'd like to upgrade the ROM, for a variety of reasons, but before doing so, I want to archive and/or convert all the videos my wife has sent me in the "\My Documents\UAContents\MMS UA" folder. I've been googling for awhile, but I haven't been successful at finding a extractor/converter/player that can handle successfully the .DAT files.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] gehzumteufel:
Go into the message itself, and save the contents. This will give you the source, as opposed to the dat file. :)

To make sure to stay current when new builds are released, and so you don't have to sort through logcat. Open up your init.rc and look for the line BOOTCLASSPATH and manually odex them first in that order. For ease of use you can use the attached scripts for ease of use.

I'm posting from my phone so I can't upload...

(For framework)

for i in /system/framework/*.jar

I have to agree with the OP. Why isn't there a way to sync time natively on the phone? All of my other phones do.

As already said, clock is automatically synchronized when device is connected to a PC via Activesync or WMDC. In Activesync it is enabled by default but can be disabled in Options. I personally use GPS2Blue to get date&time from GPS sats..no need for a connection nor a pc,easy.

After all tries, in the about screen now I can only see square boxes instead of software version, hardware version and serial number.

Then I tried hard reset and nothing changed. How can I solve this problem. Any help will be appreciated.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] xnifex:
are you talking about deleting a call in the call history? if so, here's how to hide your mistress' calls.

Press the send key to pull up the phone app & then the bottom left of the dialer there is a Call History button. that will bring up all the individual calls & you can select & delete & hide your affair.

enjoy
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Quantico:
Thanks for your answer but your advice doesn't work in my phone with the european rom reported above. I need to delete a single phone to a dialer and not all the phone calls to that dialer.

FOr exampke if I call a friend 10 times and he can't answer I will found in my call history all the 10 calling and this generates confusion, so I want to be free to delete wath I want in my history call to obtain the better information I need.

If in the future, as you mention :D, I will need to make some "mistress calls" I will use a first generation phone (never a pocket PC phone :cool:) and another sim card but it is not time yet :).

Thanks in advance for your cooperation
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] xnifex:
Call you post a screenshot of what pops up when you press the Call History icon on the dialer? I'd like to see if it's the same as mine.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mda71:
This was a feature I was also looking for.

I found this on a ROM with Manila 2.5. I apologize but I forgot which one. The ROM was a bit unstable so I am presently using another. I will PM the OP with the ROM I used.

---edit---

It was a ROM with Manila 2.5 build 23049
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Mesquire:
You can delete all calls to an individual caller (or all calls to all callers) but on Manila 2.1 it is not possible to delete a single call to that caller.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] xnifex:
It is possible on 2.1 doing what i described. from the Phone/Dialer, press the bottom left icon for Call History & it will bring up individual calls (sort of like the old WM way) & you can press & hold a single call & it will pop up with an option to delete or you can do it through the Menu.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] freakingwilly:
Wow... I can't believe it was right in front of my eyes the whole time! I was going through my call history from the 6.1 contacts.

Thanks :D

And for the record, it's the icon directly to the left of the Talk button when you bring up the dialer.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Mesquire:
The icon to the left of TALK button on my TP2 toggles between voice calls and video calls. There is no Call History icon :(

Call History can be called up using the right softkey Menu > Call History, or click on the icon to the right of the call entry, which only gives me the option to delete all calls to that particular caller.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] xnifex:
hmm, must be a US only thing then.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] monomer888:
Yes, I can't find it on my European version of the TP2.

I think freakingwilly did mention a way to do it: through the 'Contacts' app in the 'All Programs' list.

t's a bit fiddly, but the way I've done it is:

1. Press the Phone/Send key to get a list of recent calls, and hit the button to the right side of that entry to get to the Contact Details page

2. Once you're there, press 'More' in the Information section

3. This will bring you out of TouchFLO into Windows Mobile 6.1 page for that contact

4. Tap on 'Last Call' (this will only be present if there is any call history to see)

5. You'll see a list of last calls for that contact which you can delete individually.

Note that this only works if that number is in your phonebook contact list - I haven't found a way to delete unknown callers short of saving them to my phonebook first.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Quantico:
Nice work!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Quantico:
Correct :( !
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] CyberLord:
Indeed, it's a US thing.

The simplest thing I've found is simply to exist TF3D/Sense. I have installed the Darkness Toggler for TF3D Sense/Titanium/SpbShell. Once out of Sense, the option to hold down and delete individual calls is there.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] see_u_then:
I have US Tmo 6.5 rom. Press and hold does not bring up any menu for me and the moment I let it go, it simply dials that number for me.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] CyberLord:
@see_u_then:

What you described comes from the TF3D-Sense. Once you get quit sense, you will get the option to delete. As I said in the note above yours, I simply toggle between shells (TF3D/Spb Shell/Titanium). I get the option in all shells (or no shell) except in TF3D-Sense.

(As an aside, it's interesting that they removed this option in the TF3D-Sense2.1. The option was there in the WM6.1/TF3D Manila2.1 version that I had before the "update").

Would you be able to tell me how you assigned AltTab.exe to run when Messaging button is pressed? (assuming what you did would also work on CDMA version)

Is it possible to make the Message button run AltTab ONLY when multiple "windows" are open and retain normal function (or better yet, make it launch Start menu) when all are closed?
