So far so good but I really don't like the big fat "LOCK" on my nice clear lockscreen. I've tried flashing the clearlock screen over top but the big padlock remains. Gah! Can someone that's much smart than me fix that while fresh is on vacation? Also flash the clearlock.zip that I have removed the customized DATA ICON from tsowen's icons at the top. Back to default. No biggy though.

great release regardless :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
^that is basically correct
[Hero CDMA Android Development] StephenMilone:
thanks for the tip to removethe boot sound!

regarding the new lock screen...on mine it just shows the lock screen background with the lock photo ontop of that. it doesnt showmy home screen behind the lock photo..any thoughts?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thorasaurus:
As petty as this sounds, I'm actually waiting to flash 1.0 until I can find a good lock image to replace the one in the rom. Is that pretty easy to do via Astro or adb if I can find a good one?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Philosophy757:
Ok. Did a restore then flashed again. So far so good
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ibegary:
Love the new ROM, hate the huge lock on the lock screen. I tried re-doing EVILS lock screen but the lock persists.

Other than that, love it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] flipzmode:
Just be aware that nandroid doesn't backup your sdcard (I believe that it's possible with the new RA 1.5.1 recovery image). So if you are using apps2sd and something breaks, nandroid won't save you.

Yea. I put right in the release notes that I didn't really like either but it was the fastest thing we could whip up. Hehe. As requested in release notes if anyone has any art that they would like to see used them send them my way. As for a fix, if someone doesn't come up with one before I get home then you'll just have to wait for now. ;) I'm sure that one of the apps/art guys can figure it out though.

Are you using a custom lock screen wallpaper? Something off your sd card perhaps? If so you probably need to delete those or just move them so the system can't find it. Then it should work for you. I made it so for a stock setup the lockscreen will be transparent, but if you manually assigned a non-stock lock screen then it can't fix that. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ebaDamagePlan:
First let me say thanks and this ROM is awesome

As others have said I would love to be able to get rid of that lock or change it to something else

Also will the clear theme work with 1.0? And the clear buttons at the bottom?

And I had Apps2SD setup before I flashed to RA-1.5.1 and Fresh 1.0 this morning, do I have to reformat my SD to disable Apps2SD? After reading about it I don't want to use it anymore.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mcdroid:
Boot up is sweet! Thanks for posting how to remove the sound too ;)

Hopefully there is a way to do the same with the lock screen? I tried to install evil lock screen and no go...

Also 1 more. The new icons are great but the signal meter has like a circle (globe?) behind it. Maybe just the blue signal meter instead of the globe? Love the blue! Thanks again for another great ROM update!

Edit:

you responded while i was typing up this on for the lock screen :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lonequid:
Actually, there is a safe mode. Power off your phone, hold down menu, then press the power button. Continue holding menu until the phone fully boots up. You'll see "Safe mode" in the bottom left corner of the screen. I believe it disables all non-system applications from starting. (also appears to turn off apps2sd)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Ceger:
As usual, great ROM and overall upgrade process.

For some reason, I lost about 11MB of internal memory, even after removing the HTC Guide and Sprint Nav apps. Any ideas of what is taking up an extra 11MB of internal space?

When I load up Root Manager and look at system apps, I see a number of temp#.bat files. Can these be erased? Are they from the Fresh 1.0 install?

Also, does anyone know what Street.apk and Sprint_App_Updater.apk are for and if safe to remove since for the latter I am not using any Sprint software?

Thanks,

Ceger

EDIT: Also, The IM is not part of the flash package and I didn't install the IM app either, but looking at system apps, it lists ImProvider.apk, IMPlugins.odex and IMPlugins.apk. Can these be removed as well?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mkeyslehman:
As per Flipz' OP, yes Clear theme should work, but because it's currently built on .7 APKs, you'll have to clear the cache first. I'll be updating in a day or 2 when I have the chance to re-package everything
[Hero CDMA Android Development] flipzmode:
I never knew that! Thanks.

What you are seeing is the move of the odex's from the system partition to the data partition. The "about" screen on the phone is only reporting the data cache. So while it appears you lost 11mb, you still saved about 14mb off the actual system partition. Don't remove the improvider, it will break the market place I believe. The actual IM app is gone, but some of the services had to stay behind. You can delete those bats. Those got zipped up in there on accident. They are part of my deodex process. They won't hurt the phone being on there and are extremely tiny, but no they weren't part of the setup process or anything.

So in order to go back to a different lock screen you will have to:

1. Install a lock screen you like (this will also delete some of the taskbar animations unless you re-build it off of 1.0)

2. Push a copy of htclockscreen.apk and htclockscreen.odex to /system/app (or include it in your lock screen update.zip)

3. Clear your cache (use my apps installer or look through old posts in this thread).

That *should* get you back to your old lock screen however it's untested and I can't guarantee it won't cause FC's. Don't like the big ass lock on the screen? I don't either really but it was a proof of concept. Send in what images you would prefer to see with the clear background!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alexthearmo:
can anyone verify...

Is it any faster than 0.7? I know it's a little bit smaller, but is it faster? It's all about speed for me. Please let me know your experiences. thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ebaDamagePlan:
First. In his post he mentions modifying the APKs could break some of the new status bar icons, would that happen in this case?

Second. In Flipz OP he says the easiest way to clear the cache is with his stock app installer, is that true? Or is it easier now that the 1.5.1 image is out?

Third. Should I just wait for your update?

And unrelated, my question about App2SD card wasn't answered, if I was using it before and now I flashed to a new image and a new ROM is it gone, or do I need to reformat my SD card?

Lastly, my lock screen isn't clear, I tried changing the wall paper to the stock one and it isn't clear still, what can I do?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Moguledyouth:
I would like a 1.0 Fresh Rom without the "new" stuff. get rid of the taskbar icons and "new" lock screen please.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ibegary:
I second. I liked the 1.0 ROM But hated the new notification bar and lockscreen. Rolled back.

* Dont take it as a diss to your work, I just don't prefer this 1.0 load. Will wait for 1.1 :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] riotkid976:
I'm noticing a LOT of lag any time I use the landscape keyboard (at least in .7, i'm working on downloading 1.0 atm). I have all of the clear themes installed.

is anyone else noticing this?

edit:

just booted 1.0. that lockscreen is SICK. i think i'm in love. also, all of the clear themes that worked for .7 seem to be working with the exception of the clear widgets.

I'm not noticing the boot sound. I'm assuming this is because my phone is always on vibrate. and i'm ok with that.

and i agree with everyone else, that lock has to go! lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bcellis:
For that matter, can anyone clarify or quantify how much faster .7 is compared to .6?

My first (and only) ROM flash was from Stock (1.56) to Fresh (.6). It seems to me a lot of the lag is reduced/gone and the phone works great now (no bugs that I'm aware of). I'm hesitant to upgrade simply for the sake of upgrading but if .7 is a significant improvement over .6, then it's probably worth a shot.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] saintirish:
Question. I just got a brand new hero, and I want to flash it today, but I'm new to this process.

Can I follow the post from goku14238 entitled "Step By Step Way to root Using Flashrec", and instead of using the files he links to, substitute the new recovery.img file called "recovery-RA-heroc-v1.5.1" which was recently posted and also substitute Fresh's new ROM

"fresh-cdma-hero-1.0.zip" instead of MoDaCo's?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonnythan:
Yeah, same here.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] magicalan:
the only thing that i dont like its the lockscreen other than that i love it :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] asrebel:
For what it's worth, I agree. I like the idea of this being an optimized ROM where extra functionality like the new lock screen, etc. is an additional download
[Hero CDMA Android Development] StephenMilone:
i did assign it a picture from my SD card...but i just removed the file from my card and rebooted...and yet it stayed??

i dont see a way to unselect a photo from the lockscreen select menu..i'll dig deeper, thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thorasaurus:
From deviant art: http://sgraves.deviantart.com/art/Micro-111492791

I nominate something like this without the clock since you'll be able to see the flip clock through the transparency. Or something that is barely smoked (mostly transparent) with a tiny simple lock icon in the bottom right corner, and a tiny android logo in the bottom left. Someone with some photoshop skillz?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pitmanr2003:
the link for the new version doesnt work. is there another place to get it?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lonequid:
Which app (filename) was this?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] VoXHTC:
rm LearnMore.apk
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dbroadus2007:
apps2sd

I also am running modaco 1.1 with apps2sd and want to try out your Rom....I came from winmo to g1( still have it) to Sprint hero...I've done a ton of modding...let me kno if I could test it for you.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pitmanr2003:
can someone post a working link to the new version. the link is bad.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Negrito:
I for one would love to see what you can do with Android.

One in the OP works fine for me. DL @ 55KB/s....

@flipz/fresh: I noticed you guys left Sprint Nav, is it safe to remove it cause im content with google maps.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] flipzmode:
Ditto. I'm not sure why you are having problems with the download link. I've tested it and it's working fine and has had multiple downloads this morning? I'll make a mirror once we release the next version (to fix and include apps2sd. Will likely be a few days).

It *should* be safe to use sprint navigation however looking at startup items, for some reason (don't ask me why) sprint nav gets launched when you receive an sms. It wouldn't hurt to remove it and see what happens. I left it in because I use it but you are now the 3rd request to have it removed. Heh. Looks like we are going to end up with a few different versions of this rom.

I'll keep you guys updated. Likely won't get to much until tomorrow.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] intx:
Well is Sprint Nav free?!

I know on my diamond it wasn't but if it is, then I would def keep it in until we can get Google Nav working on here.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] flipzmode:
If you have a Hero (you do, right? :p) then you have sprint nav. It's included in the lowest plan required to have a Hero.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Negrito:
Ok. Hopefully i get to it today. Juggling football, helping my ex move, and getting this rom on my Hero. If i get to it today i will report back after i remove Sprint Nav. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] VoXHTC:
Nice! I can confirm that "Quick Reboot" from the market works with this ROM - no more 23 button presses to reboot my phone. as well as the Command Prompt app - the new startup sound is very cool. kept all my settings and wallpapers etc.. well done.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pitmanr2003:
No not the .1a one. it gets line 71 error. you pm me a new version, .2a to try, but the link is bad. thats the one im talking about.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] flipzmode:
Oh gotcha! My mistake. I had a number of other people test it and it wasn't getting the line 71 error anymore but it was bootlooping after the flash so I deleted it. That error is caused by people who are using apps2sd. I'm working on a fix and will hopefully have something pushed out yesterday.

In the mean time if you really want to test out this rom you will have to restore to factory settings and then flash this rom (your phone will still be rooted).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pitmanr2003:
i will wait on you. i would hate to have to download all my apps again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] intx:
Well sprint nav on my diamond had cost money, so i wasnt sure.

loving the rom though, great job.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jerrygon:
Love it!

.1 version and it already is wayyyy better than stock! Thanks guys!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] flipzmode:
Updated to 0.2b. Check the first post.

To the beta testers... I put over 12 hours in to this build and it's now 5:30am. I decided to just put it up and hope for the best. Hehe.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jerrygon:
Wifi???

Why the removal of wifi tether??? If you are not going to put it on do you know where I can get it? Or does USB tether work on this rom? Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] flipzmode:
Hey Jerrygon. I removed it to guarantee 100% functionality with previous installs using apps2sd. I tested every aspect of the install but didn't get a chance to test applications that had been installed using another rom and then using this rom also. I left it out to avoid any possible data wipe or loss. I'll throw a link up on first thread so that you can download it. Look in the change log, I'll put it there.

And don't worry, it'll be back. I just wanted to test it in the install script before I did.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jerrygon:
Thanks for the quick response... Any way to get USB tether to work on your rom?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] flipzmode:
Ok... I give.

How can I de-freshen fresh rom?

[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
Very, very, very nice!! I am officially a FreshROM user now! I've always been a fan of tsowen's work back in my Diamond days. The red bluetooth icon threw me for a second though

Am I the only one who actually LIKES the big-a$$ lock??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] flipzmode:
People hate change. :cool: I knew that the lock wouldn't go over too well, but I figured that it was a proof-of-concept that people would be ok with until something better came along.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 702DROID:
could have delt with just no lock screen the notification bar is nice and our trademark freeeesh boot up is just that your trademark leave it in there
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thorasaurus:
I second this.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] magicalan:
hhahaha i just wanna remove the lock :( i love everything else man

awesome rom :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] saintirish:
I don't mean to be annoying, but can anyone answer my question before I get started on this thing?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ibegary:
I agree. Leave the fresh in there, its easy enough to edit the /system/media/bootscreen directory if they don't like it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Ceger:
Thanks for explaining. Even though the memory is lower, the overall phone is speedy. Weird thing is though, does that mean I actually have that much less for installing apps? My concern was that I had it 68MB remaining previously which was above the 40% mark. Supposedly, rumors are that if you go under 40%, then system runs into issues. With the 11MB difference, it is now 37% available.

Ceger
[Hero CDMA Android Development] flipzmode:
FIIINE! :-P Check the post again. Refresh the page if needed.

http://geekfor.me/fixes/mod-de-fresh-1-0/
[Hero CDMA Android Development] flipzmode:
Yes, replace it with the new RA 1.5.1. Yes you can use fresh instead of modaco like the instructions say.

Enjoy. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] flipzmode:
If you were wanting to get rid of apps2sd then you are going to have to totally restore, possibly even RUU.

When you reformat your sd card to all fat32 via the recovery menu (required if you want to get rid of apps2sd) then it's going to wipe your sdcard. But all those symlinks are still going to exist. I personally would partition the sd card back to fat32 and then sprint ruu and start back over just to make sure everything works.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ibegary:
You know your popular when you can't take a vacation ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] flipzmode:
Haha. Shhh. I'm not here!! :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Ceger:
What he said. People don't like it overall, then they are free to make their own ROM. ;)

[Hero CDMA Android Development] ljmeli:
Hey great work on this ROM man! I can imagine it gets annoying hearing the, I don't like this and that...but it's nice to see a chef care about what his users think. Keep up the great work!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thorasaurus:
You have better customer service than about 99% of companies. *Donate button*. How much does a six-pack cost in your neck of the woods?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alexthearmo:
I'd say .7 is quite a little bit faster than .6, and it's nice because you can't even tell that it's a custom ROM. It looks just like the original, but it's way faster. I almost never experience any lag. I'd say it's definitely worth a shot. You'll like it...plus it boots up faster than other ROMS.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] iTouch24:
SOME CHEFS say here .. this is what it is and thats it .... You stand out being that u listen to what we think and give us options to help us get the look that we like ... wow ... the best service !! android has taken over my BB and WM phone .. i see myself staying with android for awhile .. and with a chef like u .. we will have a long life together.. haha

thanks man :D

im getting alot of force closes after trying to put the fresh water theme back on top of this 1.0
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JoeyRev:
what can i say,YOU GUYS DID IT AGAIN...nice bootup screen and smooth install..thx guys
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MotherMayI:
i have a question about the lockscreen. how would the music app go into play with this cuz i know when the music is playing it shows on the lockscreen, so would it not show up anymore with this lockscreen? and if i wanted to switch to the old lockscreen would i be able to pull the apk from .7 to here? or would i have to pull the images from the old .7 lockscreen apk and replace them onto the new one???

this is off topic a little. i been trying to theme the lockscreen but cant find the image for the curvy bar what folder in the lockscreen apk is that in? and is it even in the lockscreen apk?

lol ive come a long way with my questions i remember asking how to i get to recovery and messing up my G1 lol!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] flipzmode:
Yea I just added something to the fresh water page on the blog but I guess people who already have it downloaded wouldn't be checking that. Fresh water uses all the old apk's so it breaks stuff. You can try clearing the cache to see if it resolves your issue. But that is taking you back to how the apk's used to be. Not the new deodex'd ones. I'll put freshlyill to work on making an updated one. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alexthearmo:
Flipz, you are ridiculous! Someone said that you have better costumer service than 99% of real companies. I second that. You do quality work, you listen to what your fans want, and you give it to them quickly! That is so reFRESHing. (sorry for the cheese, but I had too). ;) I'll definitely be sending another donation your way today.

I think some of these people who posted about additional zips might be onto something here. You'd be the first (and only) ROM maker who lets their users have some say in customizing their phones. If every release was just an optimized version of the regular firmwear, and then each release had extra zips available for people who wanted them (one for the lockscreen, one for the icons, another for something else, and so on) than people would get a quick and stable ROM, and then be able to customize it to their liking adding the extra zip files as they saw fit. Everyone would want to use your ROM cuz they'd have a say on how their phones looked and acted. Anyway...just a thought. You are the man! Thanks for all the hard work, and try to enjoy your vacation. :D

[Hero CDMA Android Development] flipzmode:
I emailed you.

As for the idea. About 2 weeks ago I was working on a rom that I called vanilla extract that did exactly that. I had stripped it down to about 55mb and was still going. Then the theory was that add-on packages would get it to where people want. But in order to simplify the process and not have to flash 10 different update.zips, a kitchen is needed. That's why I started working on the app installer and stuff. It's coming..... :p
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dav3wash:
okkk I'll do the sd push from now on lol. Also, 1.0 is amazing! Nuff said lol. Great job

[Hero CDMA Android Development] andybars:
Love the new ROM flipz...only thing i noticed is that the battery level indicator on the taskbar isnt accurate...

and...thanks for lettin us take out the lockscreen image. everything else looks dope!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] flipzmode:
The battery increment on our phones is 20%. Meaning the battery display will drop from 100 to 80 to 60 etc. It is 100% accurate, but it won't show any numbers in between. I left the numbers in there in hope that I could modify the framework to create smaller increments, but not having any luck on that. I'll likely just edit out the numbers.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] black7:
My lock screen is still showing my previously assigned wallpaper, and not transparent. It was mentioned earlier to delete the wallpaper files so it will be 'back to stock'. Where are these wallpaper files located so I can delete them?

thanks, great roms so far FRESH!

btw- When I'm in shell, why are all the files funky looking?

/system/etc/lockscreen . on fresh 1.0 there shouldn't be anything in that folder. If there isn't and you are still getting a wallpaper then I'm guessing it's on your sd card somewhere. If you removed it from your sd card and it's still showing your wallpaper then then I'm guessing when you pick a custom lock screen wallpaper it pulls it in to /data/ somewhere. If so then I'll have to find out where and have the update script delete it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] black7:
Thanks Fresh!

Hmm... I don't seem to have 'lockscreen' folder in /system/etc
