Hey Dookie (NCSU here), are you just dying to flash a hero rom or something? I'm not certain if it is true, but I read if you flash the Danger SPL, you may be stuck with that one and not be able to flash another.

I'd be cautious, hero is not worth being stuck with that SPL or a brick in my opinion.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B-man007:
you can revert the SPL, nothing is keeping it tied it on there
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Nimo84:
I'm having difficulties with my TP2.

it's running slow (removed programs and it says 45% memory). And i cant open any programs (like Word or outlook).

so i thought maybe a new ROM would help getting it work normal.

My spec's:

Modelnr.: HTC Touch pro2 T7373

ROM version: 1.19.404.0 (51489) NLD

ROM date: 05/16/09

Radio version: 3.44.25.27

I don't know if more info is needed to answer my question. Is my TP2 a CDMA model:confused:

Plz help me out!
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] ruskiyab:
LOL

No, it is not
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Nimo84:
How can you see that?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] crash:
if your usb port is in the center its gsm. if it's off to one side thats cdma/gsm. also my cdma model says t7380 not 7373

ok, thanx.

Noe i have to do a hardSpl:eek:

data roaming

hi there, i just got the phone but i cannot find any option for data roaming, could u tell me please where exactly? thanks.
[HD2 General] PDPPDA:
Likewise wasn't able to find an easy way to do this. Switching the data connection "switch" works temporally but phone will automatically reconnect if you then use an application which needs data.

Have however found the following, Haven't tried it myself but you might want to give it a try. Please feedback

[Hero CDMA Android Development] chuckhriczko:
Title pretty much explains it. There are (not many) but more Hero roms on the GSM side of things than the Hero. But obviously, MoDaCo took his rom and switched it over to CDMA for us. So if anyone could help that would be great.

I also have been trying to port Malign's Hero rom for the Dream over to Hero but I'm getting stuck on boot. Loads up but Rosie doesnt seem to want to load. I am trying to do this so I can learn how to port over the good roms since it doesnt seem like many devs are interested in CDMA Hero, which is understandable considering it's price and carrier.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] chuckhriczko:
Are you saying you know a bit of how to do this or you just want to learn as well?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cicada:
I don't know the ins and outs of the apks in that ROM, but I do know step 1 - a kernel recompile.

Thankfully, HTC released their kernel changes shortly after the CMDA Hero arrived, which you can download here:

http://developer.htc.com/

You'll need the android SDK and sources for whichever version you want to build - 1.5 should be fully compatible with this kernel, not sure about 1.6, but probably not 2.0.

Unforunately HTC probably won't release their changes for 2.0 until after they dunk Eclair onto the Hero. 2.0 support may work out of the box, may require just a few quick changes, or may be broken entirely, who knows!

[edit] Thinking on this further, a kernel rebuild might not be necessary, but it wouldn't be a bad idea. You may just be able to replace the kernel/boot image in the ROM with the kernel on your Hero (or yanked out of MoDaCo's ROM). No way to know execept to do a thang.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the.snks:
This about as short as I could make it:

I haven't tried to use ADB with my G1 for about a month, so I'm not exactly sure when the problem started, but it's become a royal headache now. For whatever reason when I launched ADB shell today, I got an error saying 'device not found'. The first thing I did was check device manager where I noticed the phone showed as a 'USB composite device' with a yellow exclamation mark over it. I thought to myself "drivers." So I tried pointing it to the driver in the Android SDK folder. That just popped an error saying that Windows couldn't find a better driver match than the one I was already using.

From there I got the googling and came across this insanely long Google Groups thread. Following the advice listed, I started pulling some USB .sys files. I tried using an older copy of the USB driver from a previous SDK. I tried using Haruyko's modified USB driver. None would install.

Same error.

Reading down some more I saw that some people had success with with usinfg HTC Sync. It was worth a shot, right? Well it certainly made things different, but doesn't resolve the issue. Now in device manager I have an 'HTC Remote NDIS' listing under Network Connections. The old 'USB Composite Device' item is now gone. But still, I can't use ADB. "Device not found."

It's driving me nuts.

At this point I figured that it'd be best to try this on a different PC. Maybe my primary one is wonking out. These things happen. Well, that hope was quickly crushed when I discovered that NOT EVEN on a VANILLA XP SP3 setup, will Windows detect the G1. I downloaded a fresh copy of the SDK, plugged it in, pointed it to the USB driver....and nothing. Same error as PC number one:

"Windows can't find a better version of the driver than you're currently using."

Tried switching the USB cable. Same thing.

Back to PC number one, I removed all HTC software from 'Add/Remove Programs, then ran USBDeview. There, I removed the HTC NDIS device, unplugged the G1, and plugged it back in.

The HTC NDIS Remote device returned. **** my life.

SO.....before I throw this phone into traffic, does anyone have any clue as to what's going on here? All I want to be able to do is regain ADB access to my phone. I don't care about USB tethering (and toggling that option does nothing btw) or none of that. Just looking to regain ADB access. The only thing that's changed since the last time I used ADB is the version of Cyanogen's mod. I'm currently using v4.2.3.1. Maybe this broke shell access?

Thoughts?

**EDIT***

-Toggling USB debugging does nothing either.

-Ditto that for Fastboot
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B-man007:
device not found has to do with the phone....make sure your cable is not messed up.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the.snks:
Tried that already.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B-man007:
is the phones usb port ok? can you transfer files over it? if your about to throw the phone away....at least try flashing the RC29 image again
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the.snks:
As far as I know the USB port is ok. It charges fine. And to update everyone on where I am, I tried the following today:

-Removed all HTC software (Sync and Drivers).

-Used USBDeview to remove all instances of HTC, and Android devices.

-Tried downgrading my test machine (PC #2) to Service Pack 2.

-Tried a third USB cable.

And I'm still getting the same problem. So there's no doubt in my mind that it has to be the phone. Like I said, the only thing I've done lately is update the version of Cyanogen's ROM.

I know it definitely worked before I updated to v4.2.3.1. Also I noticed that I am no longer able to mount the sdcard as storage in Windows. I do not get a prompt on the G1 asking if I wish to mount it. However, the USB debugging notice still pops up (weird).

....and here I'm stuck once again.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rp1783:
Have you tried actually uninstalling the usb devices in device manager?

I was having a similar problem, I just unistalled all the usb instances in the device manager, and when I rebooted my computer, everything seemed to work fine.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the.snks:
Yes. Multiple times in fact. It can't be the computer if the same issue is happening across two different PC's, with three different USB cables.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldenarmZ:
At first I thought this was a definite driver issue with xp, I've had similar problems in the past that just won't go away.. xp is a c*nt when it gets a driver stuck in its head that it just doesn't want to part with... but if its persisting across several machines it could well be the phone..

Have you tried adb with the phone in recovery? Boot into recovery and leave it about 30 seconds, then plug in the usb and try to get an adb shell.. this should rule out any rom config issues
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the.snks:
PROGRESS! I booted into recovery mode and plugged the G1 into the computer. I got the 'new hardware' prompt and was asked to install the driver. I did so using the one from the SDK. Now I have ADB access, and Windows tried to mount the sdcard but that failed. I'm guessing because there's no way for me to 'ok' that in the recovery console.

So what does this tell us? I'm not sure if I understand what's wrong here.

(Sidenote: Man I'm so tempted to try to install the new Google Maps now....)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldenarmZ:
It tells us that something's cocked up with the usb support in your rom, but the phone itself is fine. wipe/reflash and you should be good to go.

There is a command you can type to mount the sd for windows when you're in recovery.. just type this in the console:

echo /dev/block/mmcblk0 > /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun0/file
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the.snks:
Ah....that blows but you do what you gotta. I'll try wiping and report back in case this thread helps anyone else.

Thanks man.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the.snks:
Alright, here's what I did to get working again:

Doing a wipe did NOT resolve the issue. However, updating to v4.2.4 did (remember I was using v4.2.3.1 originally). For clarity, I wiped both before and after the update. And I had to use a sdcard reader to get v4.2.4 onto the phone. I can now ADB and mount the sdcard in Windows without issue. I'm not sure if this was a one off, or possibly a bug in v4.2.3.

Somebody may want to bounce that Cyanogen.

B-man007 and goldenarmZ, the help was much appreciated.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B-man007:
This probably is related to USB tethering Cyan put in his rom.

Also for future reference, if you want to mount your SD card in recovery and you have Cyan 1.3 or greater or RA recovery, you can just type

ums_enable

to mount and

ums_disable

to dismount

saves you from typing that hideously long line lol

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dieselboy:
Hi, can anyone explain the reasons why a ROMs RAM usage is high?

For example, the ROM I am currently using is up at 90%. After a reboot its around 75% and it doesnt take long to get up to 90%. If I use free RAM on level 1 it tells me "No change". If I use level 2 then it ruins touch flow 3d and I need to reboot.

I only need more RAM to run applications, but my idea is that regardless of the applications installed, if none are running then the RAM usage shouldnt be that high.. ? For example, you could install loads of stuff on your windows XP machine, but RAM only gets used when you load the applications right... ?

I have run task manager, and in the order of most RAM usage here are the things running currently at 92% RAM

gwes.exe 24394 kb

cprog.exe 7920 kb

device.exe 3658 kb

manilla.exe 3553 kb

shell32.exe 2705 kb

services.exe 2686 kb

filesys.exe 2289 kb

dotTaskMgr.exe 97 kb

connmgr.exe 96 kb

tmail.exe 45 kb

SAPSettings.exe 1 kb

NK.EXE 1 kb

total 47445 kb (or almost 50mb of RAM)

Now, I know that manilla consumes WAY more ram than titanium. But I prefer manilla!

Does any ROM cookers give me a brief understanding of why certain ROMS use more RAM than others?

I've even gone as far as changing the theme but to be honest I dont think it made any difference..

I am a complete N00b but I like to read and use google so if people can give me some direction I will go away and do some research! :D

Thanks!

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dieselboy:
Hi Guys!! Thanks for both your replies. So I googled about the page pool as I had heard this mentioned before. It's a little like virtual memory on PC's right?

So I used the page pool changer to tell me what my rom has as it's pagepool and from what I can tell, I have 8mb.. Do you agree? I've attached a screenshot.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dieselboy:
Yea I understand! Do you know why it gradually increases the ram usage up to over 90% though? :o
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] benko286:
try with changing pagepool (8mb-12mb)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] makeveral:
there are many ways to get more free ram... easier is pagepool but if you lower pp you will loose rom speed so it's not the best choice... other things have to be done by the cooker not the rom user.

Obviously if you use manila+phonecanvas+wm6.5 you will have a high memory usage rom...

edit: between if you want a good program to free the max of ram, use the one i made in my signature.. but you will have to configure it for your apps
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dieselboy:
Thanks Benko!! :D I will try and see how it goes :D

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] GenghisKhan:
Defiantly agree with the OP.

I had NRG's Rom installed, and I'll say he manila and titanium on his ROM is mega fast. Every animation is so fluent, so much eye kandy and hi-res icons...

Was perfect...

Till I started to actually use programs that couldn't even start. I was on mainila looking at photos, and hit 'album' but cant open the album. can't use the camera.couldn't play games or anything..

currently on Benkos full ROM, is a little buggy, animations aren't so fluid but usally are fine however am pleased i can actually use programs.

I could NOT use manila but same as OP, I prefer it.. I'm keen on the later versions which have colour icons on the slider etc... Not so keen on titanium but i prefer everything else on 6.5. I'm wondering if I really need to use 6.5 as it does use a whole lot more RAM than 6.1
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] goTouch:
Think about it... what are the real differences between WM 6.1 and 6.5? Do you really need the 6.5 start menu? Titanium? WM Slide to unlock?

The problem about the WM6.5 is the graphics and windows event service (gwes). It consumes to much RAM. Phones with 128MB RAM are made to run WM6.1

Try this ROM

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=565243&highlight=akeo

It is stable, fast, a lot of free RAM and very clean. And if you still need more RAM, just try to disable TF3D and tachi phone canvas. You are going to get 38% used RAM after boot. I installed IphoneToday 1.2.5 (very lightweight and fast) and S2U2. After boot I still get ~40% of used RAM (~70MB free RAM).
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dieselboy:
I'm pretty sure I need WM6.5... After using 6.1 for a whole year and getting frustrated at the little things, like looking through phone contacts, dragging the list up a tiny bit and then the phone automatically scrolling all through my 200 contacts to the bottom.. then if I tried to go back, I would end up right back at the start. WM6.5 fixes all the things that either I hated, didnt work in 6.1 or both.

I'm learning how to cook now so I can just build a ROM that I'll use for myself.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] longice:
WM6.5 isn't really much but ram-hungry, eyecandy graphics. The scrolling is improved, that's correct, but with Sense 2.5 (newest Manila) you will barely need to use the old scrolling of WM6.1 as most stuff is integrated. I can warmly recommend Kisja's WM 6.1 with Sense 2.5, although you might wanna wait for the final release (in RC1 now).

The reason for your high RAM usage is mostly graphics - phone canvas, Manila and some WM6.5 graphics. The more tabs in Manila you open, the more RAM it uses. The WM6.5 screenlock also consumes alot of RAM. In addition, there are (and will always be) some memory leaks in WM. Don't ask me why, it just is like that. Therefore you need to use RAMsweeper, cleanRAM or other cleaners every once in a while.

I recommend you to disable the WM6.5 screenlock and use either the old WM or TouchLockPro which is a great piece of software.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] KobrakaiMM:
I have to agree with the topic.

I've been searching for a good Diamond rom, but can't seem to find one.

I personally don't care about the OS on my phone. 6.1 seems to work well enough.

I do want manilla 2.5 though. It looks better and it's really easy to use with the finger buttons.

Maybe someone could help me out.

I am looking for the following rom:

- Manilla 2.5

- Ability to switch automatic to landscape in; Manilla, contacts and texting windows (don't care about the rest but it would be nice)

- Fast and stable. So for daily use.

- Not to heavy on RAM. I still want to be able to use all my apps.

- CLEAN.

Things I don't care about:

- OS. 6.1 or 6.5 both are welcome

- Playing music.

- Extra apps except for the essentials.

- Enhanced looks. Plain HTC black works fine.

So; clean, fast, stable, RAM friendly and manilla 2.5.

A rom for standard daily usage. Calling, browsing contacts, texting, maybe browsing the web every now and then AND using GPS on SOME occasions.

This is WAY to much to ask for a Diamond rom. But maybe someone could help a guy out.
