[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Kaptur:
Yeah you should probably settle for a theme supporting the newest cyanogenmod. And you have to have the cyanogenmod rom before flashing the new theme. So install cyanogen's rom, then get some other theme :) Or you could get any rom you like, but I think cyanogen's has the most themes. Just make sure the rom you want supports your device (32A vs 32B) and read the instructions.

My cyanogen updater told me i needed to update manually here the wiki

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Upgrading_From_Older_CyanogenMod_Versions

well it gave me an error so i just tried using the update-cm-4.2.3.1-signed image as update.zip it said it completed but now it just loads on the g1 screen and stays there? home+power works camera+power works.

"assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "dream" ||

getprop("ro.build.product") ==" dream"

E :error in sdcard/signed-dream_dev....14731.zip

heck i would even start out new. but monday is coming fast and i really need it back to work! thanks.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjcforpres:
Try reading the info on the link you provided. I think you skipped the first section after the title of the wiki "Upgrading From Older CyanogenMod Versions"... If you actually read the first 3 lines, you will see exactly what you did wrong, and I would highly recommend you continue reading beyond that.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acdc.cleaning:
you are right

I didn't use 4.2.2 cause i assumed the new 4.2.3 was the newest and would work. i did go back and try 4.2.2 but now i get the error.

so the error that i gave was what happens when i do #10 on the instrucions.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjcforpres:
Are you flashing the 1.6 ADP recovery image before anything else? Since that is the key to the whole upgrade process from any rom not already 1.6 based, which your 4.04 is before he started using Android 1.6, it is still Android 1.5.

"""This guide will tell you how to upgrade from an older (< 4.1.99) version of CyanogenMod to the latest and greatest versions!

Installation instructions for an HTC Dream/ADP1/G1 and HTC Magic/ION/MT3G:

1.Download: Android 1.6 Recovery Image. (This isn’t like a typical "recovery" image we know -- it’s simply HTCs version of an update.zip.)

Magic32A and Magic32B users only: Download this HTC_ADP_1.6_DRC83_rooted_base.zip""""

That is the part I am talking about, you have to flash that before you move on. Once you do that, you can flash his newest no problem, the Wiki just hasn't been updated yet to reflect that a new release came out.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acdc.cleaning:
you are still right

I do appreciate your time.

yes i ran the 1.6 recovery image upgrade first. and that is the error that i got.

brief timeline:

steps 1-6 to the letter.

step 7 backup didnt work

8,9,10 worked (of course now i can't remember if 10 did that was this morning

steps 11, 12, 13, and waited maybe 15 minutes on the final reboot and stuck on g1 screen.

and that is when i tried way too much stuff i am sure.

thanks again!! -alan
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjcforpres:
I would highly recommend just starting over from scratch following his walk through in the Q&A section on here... without the phone in my hands it is hard to say exactly why you are getting these errors. I got something similar, different file system failed to be written, and it turned out to be 2 fold:

1) My SD card needed to be replaced due to age and over use(I went to Radio Shack and got a 4GB Class 8 card on sale for about $15, it was San Disk Ultra Mobile series)

2) Because of that, I had bad flashes of many things, from my recovery image, to my radio, to my spl, and so forth. I had to start all over from scratch because of this, by down grading to RC29, re-rooting, et al...

It sucks, but it was the only solution.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acdc.cleaning:
Last time. i tried to down grade to rc29

with original 1gb sd

format sd

copy dreaimg.nbh

power+camera

do you want to start update? yes

error: unknown fail!

update Fail!

any ideas?

i will try again with a new sd.

thanks! -alan
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acdc.cleaning:
it must have been the sd or file

redownloaded the rc29 file and tried a different sd card and at least i have rc 29 here we go again with a fresh i think i will keep cyanogen, unless you like something better.

thanks again -alan
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjcforpres:
Sounds like your SD card has seen the end of it's flashing days... the swap files run on the SD card really kill them fast, as does flashing in general.

Good luck! And if you like cyanogen, stick with it, personally I am rocking this one, and loving it! Very fast, very stable! And it sticks to compcache in place of a swap file on the SD card, so it doesn't eat up the SD card.

Ah, but which version of TCPMP and using which settings?

The best version for use on my Touch Pro2 seems to be the one attached to this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3275845&postcount=172

To make it work on my TP2 I select "DirectDraw" as the renderer method (which is the default, I think) then go into the Settings menu, DirectDraw page, and tick the box that says "use blitting instead of overlays".

If that doesn't work, then try using "Raw" or "GDI" as your rendering method.

If that doesn't work either, then try using the version of TCPMP attached to this post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=380387

(You may need to change Rendering methods with that too).

If you know where you can find a copy of TCPMP version 0.81 or 0.82, that would be an interesting experiment as well.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] stuntdouble:
Well the 1st one you linked isn't free or actual txt to voice directly, you have to save it to a file for playback. The 2nd one was terrible and that flite is extremely basic unfortunately and only does 8hz voices. And yes I've googled it myself and not found a decent program at all.

While this isn't how I wanted to do it, I finally went with with a program called textaloud which lets you save text to wav files for playback similar to sayvoice.

Still looking for a proper txt to voice freeware program...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] howdykeith:
Hi,

I have put together a Mortscript which allows you put any text into a text msg and have it send to your own phone.

My app does turn on the voice announcing and turn it back off after the msg has been received. This is if you have voice announcing turned off.

I know this is not free, but I had to start somewhere. I am going to add 1Liner support so it can read jokes.

I do know there is an app called Flite, but I don't know if it works at all any more.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] markachee:
I've learned that the exploit used on the Sprint Hero doesn't work on the CS Hero because it uses mmap_min_addr. This means that exploits which rely on a null pointer dereference (like the Sprint exploit) won't work.

So here's what I think I need:

1) I'll be watching bugtraq, etc... for non null pointer dereference local kernel vulnerabilities. (I don't think I know 100% what that means yet.)

2) I also need to learn how to know if a vulnerability is applicable. Like this one http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/36834 . I don't even know really where to begin to see if I can use that.

3) Once I've found a vulnerability, how do I exploit it? I realize there will probably be proof of concept for the exploit, but how will I turn that into something that executes a specified command like asroot2 does. Is the source available for asroot2?

4) I wonder if I need to bother figuring out if the source used to build the kernel for CS is different from Sprint. Is a change in config.gz enough to legally require HTC to provide me with source specific to the CS version?

Help

I too own a CS hero and i am looking all over the net for a way to root this phone. if a way can be found will any roms work on it or will new CS specific roms have to be developed. If that is the case then i am afraid we CS users won't gain access to this for awhile as the customer base is quite small compared to sprint
[Hero CDMA Android Development] markachee:
Well I've been surprised by the response to this thread, so hopefully there is more interest specific to CS than we may realize.

Ideally, ROMs made with Sprint Hero in mind will work on the CS Hero. I haven't put much effort into it without having root access yet, but when I get a chance I'm going to take the time to compare things like the radio image, etc and see just how much they differ from one to the other. If nothing else, hopefully we can replace the different pieces in the custom ROMs and be able to use them.

I will update this thread with what I find, and hopefully others will contribute as well.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] markachee:
It's just going to be a waiting game.

First someone has to find an exploit, most likely in the Linux kernel. This doesn't have to be something specific to our phone. It's more likely that it will be a generic thing that will work for us, Droid, and Droid Eris (as well as Linux in general).

It's not likely I'd be able to discover one of these exploits, so I'm watching for exploits coming out (bugtraq, etc) that might work for us. There really hasn't been anything at all since the pipe.c vulnerability that worked for the Sprint Hero.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] markachee:
Really one thing we need that we should be able to get now is an RUU specific to Cellular South's Hero. From what I understand, an RUU lets you reset your phone to a factory/updated image in the event something goes wrong. It wouldn't directly help us get root, but it would be a "safety net" for those of us screwing with our phones trying to get root.

Anything you guys could help dig up on where/how to find it would be awesome.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] markachee:
As long as your card is already FAT32 (card that comes with the phone isn't by default), you don't need a card reader. If it isn't FAT32, you'll have to format it, and I wasn't able to do that with it in the phone.

I haven't tried DamageControl2 yet, but DamageControl1.0 has been working great for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ibegary:
Same. Really any of the 2.1 ROM's have been fantastic. Tried both flipz and damage(less).

There's really no reason to be concerned about the 2.1 update from CS or any other regional carriers. What you get from the roms here will be 10x faster than what you would get from the carriers.

I should state, if you are NOT Cellular South, DO NOT DO THE RESET IN THE ##786#.

For example, if you are Bluegrass Cellular and you do the ##786# and hit the reset button the firmware reverts to Cellular South settings which breaks your phone and requires the carrier to re-flash back to stock. (Yes, local carriers have the RUU just can't distribute). Found that out the hard way.

If you are cellular south, then have a ball.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] navalynt:
It's come to my attention that the Sprint RUU from the 2.1 leak (that's being used as the base for the new DamageControl ROM) will work to update the GCI Wireless / Alaska DigiTel HTC Hero to a rooted Dev ROM that's Sprint branded.

DO NOT UPDATE USING THE SPRINT RUU!

Unfortunately it is also either updating the PRL to a Sprint PRL or allowing the phone to update the PRL from Sprint's servers using methods contained in other threads. I'm uncertain what (if anything) else it's overwriting as far as the phone programming is concerned.

If you are on a GCI Wireless / Alaska DigiTel Hero and you end up with your PRL as anything other than 0004 then you could end up with some major roaming problems and possible charges on your bill.

THERE IS NO RUU FLASH BACK TO STOCK 1.5 FOR GCI WIRELESS / ALASKA DIGITEL
