[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
are you getting error code 107 or 170? google provides no help for error code 107...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
Market, Google Maps, Gmail, and Sprint Nav are all working perfectly for me. I removed Sprint TV so I can't check that.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] posguy99:
What's different between this one and the beta? The beta has none of these problems. <knock on wood>
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
I flashed over Fresh 1.0. No wipe.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
Other than the addition of the new busybox build and updated wifi tether, the only change i made was the build.prop edits to fix all market apps. I am wondering if it is something other than the rom itself. Not sure though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
EDITED: Nevermind!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rustyman14:
Which recovery image are you using?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
Thats not right... i confirmed Su File Manager and Terminal showed up... it's both paid and protected.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
Disregard my last post. I rebooted and paid apps showed up.

So far this ROM is the shiznit!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
The new one: recovery-RA-heroc-v1.5.1.img.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rustyman14:
Becarful with 1.5.1 the nandroid restore wasnt working i just had to goto 1.5.2 to get it to work properly.. and i tryed it again and v1.3 did the same thing as before with all the force closes and nothing google or sprint would work..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Fadakar:
Market wasn't fixed for me. :(

Unless they removed FxCamera, CompareEverywhere, etc.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Thomas1218:
Market was not fixed for me either. Brightkite and other apps are not showing up. Other than that everything else works like a charm. Good work Obelisk
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
for those people having issues with market apps and/or force closes please provide me with the following pieces of information.

1. What did you upgrade from

2. What apps are closing or not showing up in the market

3. What version recovery image are you using

4. Is your phone google branded or not ("with Google" printed on the battery cover)

Hopefully that will help me narrow down the source of your problems and let me get a fix out for you faster. I'm also interested in adding more quality control out there for my roms. So if any of you are obsessive enough and willing to be guinea pigs, I could use about 4-5 dedicated beta testers to help identify and squash bugs prior to public release.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Thomas1218:
1. I upgraded from your 1.2

2.Brightkite and barcode scanners were the only ones I noticed but I didnt look too hard

3.I am using Amon RA's 1.2.3

4.My phone is "with Google"
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
Thanks for the heads-up. I'm downloading 1.5.2 now.

After a backup, I am going to flash the new recovery and then 1.3 to see if I can duplicate the errors.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
Do you know how to pull files from your phone using adb? I'd like to see the build.prop and build.nopassword.prop files pulled straight from your phone if you don't mind. Or from anyone having the market issues.

Also, if anyone who's having problems would be willing to do a nandroid backup and then do a full wipe and flash and report the results I'd appreciate it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mkeyslehman:
Do you have the ROM set to clear the cache? I might be completely off course here, but it seems when people post about weird issues running Fresh, cleaning the cache fixes a lot of stuff, especially when changing / upgrading ROMs:

adb remount

adb shell

rm -r /data/dalvik-cache

rm -r /data/boot-cache

reboot

Expect a looong reboot.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Thomas1218:
I did a nandroid and a wipe and market still wont show some things
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
What's the command string? I can adb and all that stuff but I'm still new to linux commands.

EDIT: BTW, I updated the recovery image to 1.5.2 and reflashed your ROM and everything still works fine.

EDIT#2: Google Maps gave me an FC when I searched. I uninstalled/reinstalled and now it's fine.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
at the dos command prompt you should be able to type

"adb pull /system/build.prop build.prop"

"adb pull /system/build.prop.nopassword build.prop.nopassword"

As far as clearing the cache is concerned that may very well be the cause. If we determine that is in fact the case, I should be able to clear the cache via the update script. I need to know if that works first though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TaurusBullba R.I.P.:
Temporarily stuck. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rustyman14:
Are the ppl that flashed from v1.2 hanging the same problems? Cause I flashed frrm v1.1
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Fadakar:
1. Upgraded from a clean wipe.

2. FxCamera, CompareEverywhere, Waze, Midomi all won't show, there's probably way more.

3. 1.5.1

4. Without Google.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
Sorry, the wife wanted to go out to eat tonight.

Here are those files. I had to edit the name to get them to attach.

Congrats on the (temporary??) sticky.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] posguy99:
They've got that Cupcake stuff in them vs what was in the beta. The build_display_id is the wrong version. And the fingerprint doesn't have the version number in it.

I don't know enough about it to know what matters and what doesn't... I didn't and don't understand why the FreshROM works w/ the Market with the same thing in it as the fingerprint.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
The market should be an easy fix. I'll try and get it out tonight, but I'm stuck at work late today so I can't make any promises. Family first!

Edit: Just for the information of anyone interested, what I will be doing is taking the stock RUU and installing it on my phone. I'll root, install the recovery image and then update to 1.56. After that is complete, I'll pull the stock build.prop file and make the necessary changes for the custom rom to work right and patch it into the update.zip. I'll re-version it as 1.3a to annotate the bugfix. I'll wait until after that to see if that also addresses the force close issues. Sorry for the troubles, and thanks for the support and bug-reports.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] posguy99:
Based on the people that seem to be piling up on the 1.0 FreshROM with Market issues (see that thread), I think that signature is bad.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
I may offer up an update.zip that will patch it for fresh too. I'm sure flipz is getting bombarded right now.

His build.prop file is formatted differently than mine/stock from what I've seen. That was how I messed up the build.prop in the first place since I was too lazy to flash the stock ruu/update/nandroid restore business. I didn't know a lot of people had been having those market issues. Lesson learned.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Mizex:
Have been messing with the phone a little.. attempted to reinstall some applications and I was able to get Sprint Navigation and SprintTV working again. I was able to get market to load but it does not seem to be updating any of the applications it just sits there saying loading whenever I click a category.

Listed below is a list of applications that failed when I booted up my phone after the update. I had posted some in my other post but this seems to be all of them. I hope this helps in troubleshooting!

market (process com.android.vending)

SprintTV (process com.mobitv.client.sprinttv)

gmail (process com.google.android.gm)

com.google.process.gapps

Sprint Navigation (process com.telenav.app.android.sprint)

notes com.marigold.android.notes

com.smithmicro.dm (process com.smithmicro.dm)

Sprint Updater (process com.sprint.ce.updater)

Keep up the good work and I hope there is a fix soon.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Genjinaro:
Had a smooth update from 1.2c to 1.3 ROM.

Painless. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] diesel joe:
Testing

I would be happy to test any of your roms for you. Send me a message if you still need testers.:cool:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] QuiQNeZZ:
Not me, gmaps FC and handcent and the batterlife app both wouldn't work and were just frozen so I didn't even bother trying to test the other stuff like the market and other stuff. I just restored. Will try again once the fix has been added.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
I should have a fix in testing by tonight. I will need someone who has had the force close/market problems to test it before I release this in order to prevent additional issues and confirm the fix. I would also like to thank the few people who have offered to and agreed to beta test future roms prior to release.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rustyman14:
Ill test it for you i had all the same fc as everyone else..

email me if you need me chris.bowen85@gmail.com
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jtadeo:
I tried loading the latest version (first time trying to flash my hero) and I get stuck on the HTC logo.. at first shows htc logo, then the sprint gif, then the android animation, then stuck again on htc

I have used the whipe feature before trying to load an still no go.. any ideas?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] posguy99:
I finally got a chance to actually load v1.3... I don't get any FC's (yet), but no, the Market doesn't work right either. :(

I may not get any FC's since I loaded it over the 1.3beta, which was working fine. I wonder if the other people having FC issues are using apps2sd. Maybe if they uninstall and reinstall the FC-ing app, they'd be fine. That was the case before with Maps back with 1.1. Of course, reinstalling something like Maps gets interesting now since it's not actually in the Market for us any more.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Mizex:
If you still need more testers let me know. I had a few apps that didn't work for me when going from 1.1 to 1.3.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] AH28:
Does 1.3 fix the 'workarounds' needed in 1.2c?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
How long did you let it sit at the htc logo? that first boot cane take a much as 10 minutes for the initial scripts to set up the phone. Only the first boot after flashing the rom should do that. It's normal every other time.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
I was never aware those workarounds were ever needed and didn't have any reports of problems to that effect that I can remember. In either case, I'm adding the change to my bugfix release 1.3a which hopefully will be ready in a few hours.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonnythan:
Love it. Thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jjjjayd13:
Screen-shots?

Any screen-shots?

TIA,

ps--like your work very much!!!:cool:

jjjjayd13
[Hero CDMA Android Development] posguy99:
It doesn't look any different than the default ROM. That's one of the nice things about it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
Just an update, I've sent the bugfix to some testers and I'm waiting for some positive feedback before I make any kind of public release. I'm almost positive the market should be good to go now. I'm hoping to hear the same about the force closures some people have experienced.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rustyman14:
Testing now.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
gmail is not sending for me.....any suggestions?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
never seen or heard of a gmail problem. May be a software configuration issue.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
is there a way to remove my gmail account then add it again?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
Ok found this on sprint community website....

From home screen hit menu hard key > Applications > Manage Applications > (wait a bit for phone to compute) Scroll down to "gmail" click once then click "clear data" hit back hard key then below it you should see "google apps" click once then hit "clear data" as well. I rebooted my phone and it asked me to re-enter my gmail address and password but not sure if you need to reboot.

I was able to remove the gmail account doing this and it is sending again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rustyman14:
I just installed and it and it had all the same force close problems

What doesnt work:

Market

Google maps

Browser

gmail

Sprint Nav

Sprint TV

Device Self Service

What Works

GPS

Messaging

Visual Voice Mail

Phone

Downloaded Apps

Camera

Now i didnt do a wipe this time im gonna try to wipe and reinstall and see if that fixes it..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
Thanks for the info, let me know how it turns out.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
gmail back sending again. All is good.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jtadeo:
I only let it sit for about 5 min... I will try again later... tnx

Anyone know of this is better than the freshhh rom?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rustyman14:
OK i Wiped both of these and did a reinstall and everything seems to work just fine!!!

factory/data reset

dalvik-cache
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
It was most likely the dalvik cache that fixed it. It's just strange that we all have the same hardware but only some people have the problems.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
Ok maybe i missed something....clearing the dalvik cache fixes what?????
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
Google and Sprint app force closures. Theoretically. If that proves to be the case and can try and add that to the install script to automate the process.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rustyman14:
Yeah it was wierd as soon as i wiped everything it started up fine and works great no fc's or anything.. But i am having a problem with the Wifi Teather i try to get my sisters Hero to see it in her wifi list and it doesnt show up?? I had the same problem with the last rom.. i havnt tried it with any computers yet though..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
oh ok i though it may fix the problem with some apps not showing in the market. im starting to think its more of a google problem than on our end.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lostnfound53:
Thanks so much. Though I'm not using the MaDaCo ROM, I was having this very same issue. Following these steps allowed me to send gmail using the built-ib gmail app again.

A small warning: this will delete your cached copy of Contacts, Calendar, and Gmail. You will need to wait for the data to sync again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lostnfound53:
Doing this also wipes out your list of downloaded market apps. Say so long to update notifications.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
There is an app called aTrackDog that will find updates for you, or you can reinstall via the market to reestablish the update notifications.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lostnfound53:
The atrackdog route seems much better. I have too many apps to reinstall manually via market :)

Edit: Even better is that aTrackdog recreates the update notifications in the Market app.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
My list of downloaded apps is still there.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
Just wondering, did you flash the Eclair ROM 2.1v1.5 at any time previously?

There were some reports in the FreshROM thread of issues from people who had tried it and then flashed back to FreshROM v1.0 and had their paid apps disappear.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
yea, i flashed the 2.1v1.5 and went back to 1.5 and lost my apps. Its something on googles side thats going wrong. If you sign in with a different email at first startup after flashing the stock RUU all apps will be there.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rustyman14:
Actually i did i flashed it the other day to check it out.. Its nice but it seems slow and everything wasn't working on it yet.. So i did a nandroid restore and went back to modaco 1.1.... Well i wiped it both times so idk. But i see the paid apps in the market if thats what your talkin about..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
For me paid apps are there but certain apps aren't like twidroid, some barcode apps, ect. they wont show up.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rustyman14:
Yeah my 1.3 is working fine but i cant see these apps in the market either
[Hero CDMA Android Development] AH28:
Sweet. Also, have you noticed an issue with Google Maps on 1.3? Every time I close and re-open I get the tip prompt as if I just installed. Also I must re-join Latitude each time as well.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
No, I have absolutely zero issues with the rom on my phone, that was why I felt comfortable releasing it. I am commited to correcting all of the bugs or finding solutions to the issues some people are continuing to have.

I still am waiting on reports to see if clearing the dalvik cache via recovery mode fixes any of the force closes.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
I had this too a while back. Just uninstall/reinstall and it will be fine.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] AH28:
Thanks, I'd try that but unfortunately Google Maps doesn't show up in the market for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] diesel joe:
1.3

I have no problems with this rom. Market works fine, all apps show up. All google stuff works fine. Keep up the good work.:D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] AH28:
I didn't seem to have any problems last night, but today issues have been popping up. Now when I uninstall an app it still shows up in 'My Downloads' in the Market. I am having trouble with Better Keyboard now as well, it keeps closing while I type and the cursor moves ahead yet the letters don't show up. Also the problem with Google Maps that I explained earlier. Unfortunately I'm going to have to restore back to 1.2c. :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] posguy99:
I can't answer any other problems you're having, but the Market is SUPPOSED to do that.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] AH28:
I decided to wipe and reload 1.3, working great so far... :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
You can back it up to your SD Card (either with Astro or adb shell), uninstall it and then reinstall it from your SD.

Or, check your PM.:D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
I moved google maps from data/apps to system/apps in 1.3a functionally it is the same however you won't be able to uninstall easily unless I move it back. If a lot of people take issue with it I'll release a 1.3b with them moved back. But right now I don't see a need.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] posguy99:
It's not like we can't just move it back ourselves either if we like. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wiszmaster:
This release has been running very smooth for me, only a couple of FC's last night.

Glad the speaker phone button is back on the main call screen.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] posguy99:
You know, the additional buttons on the call screen are from the Sprint update, and don't have anything to do with the ROM, right? Unless you stepped your phone all the way back to the 1.29 ROM (via the RUU) and *left* it there, you should always have had them.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wiszmaster:
I did not know ...

I had them with the hero out of the box, but when going to modaco 1.1 the speakerphone option was (buried) in the menu.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] posguy99:
I went ahead and loaded this one over the top of my slightly hacked-up 1.2c, and have not had any problems with it other than the purely cosmetic version number inaccuracy and gTasks app name going weird, which is easily curable by removing it and reinstalling it. No FC's at all.

gTasks' problem isn't the ROM's fault... it's always weird. :) Always fun testing beta software.

I haven't seen any reason to mess with the 2.x ROMs that're floating around, so maybe that's got something to do with it. At the end of the day, I still need the phone to be a phone, not a paperweight. Not that the 2.x ROM won't get there, it's just not there yet.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] posguy99:
Yes, because there is no MoDaCo based on the 1.56 update that added them, just "unofficial" ones like Obelisk's.

So out of the box your Hero had 1.56, and you *downgraded* it to 1.29 when you applied MoDaCo, and now you're back up to 1.56.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TrevE:
Anyone else just randomly have problems with phone? I upgraded to 1.3 whenever it came out, and then randomly today my phone locked up, i rebooted and now all the android processes are crashing on startup. I went to settings -> abut and only thing i see is the baseband version says Unknown (not sure if this is normal).

*Edit* Googled around, looks like its something to do with the radio? Wonder how that happened.... Looks like i win a nandroid restore.

*Edit#2* looks like other GSM phone can just fastboot flash radio radio.img can i get mine off to see waht happened? or just get this one file to flash?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] posguy99:
No, it is certainly not normal.

And how did that go? Is the phone operating correctly again?

This isn't a GSM phone. Apparently you want to poke at it vs simply restoring the phone.

Now, if the baseband is *still* Unknown, I think you've won a trip to a Sprint Service Center.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TrevE:
Awesome - I love when the phone randomly commits suicide. Good news is i got it up and running for my 7pm conference call. Because I dind't have time to mess (and i cant remember when nandroid backup was from), i just did a wipe from recovery console and flashed 1.3a. Baseband 1.04.01.09.21. Ahh that was a bit scary. Anyone else ever have this problem?

*edit* something to add on this, when i tried to push the new modaco 1.3a to my sdcard, adb push wasn't doing anything.

C:\android\android-sdk-windows\tools>adb push modaco_1.3a.zip /sdcard/modaco_1.3a.zip

1181 KB/s (102007440 bytes in 84.311s)

But no file ended up on card. I turned on usb mode from recovery, deleted some files, and then it pushed. Im using apps2sd, could I have been out of space or something on the SD card and somehow this got corrupt?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wcgbmd:
This rom is completely unstable. I'm flashing back to 1.2c. After installing apps for nearly an hour and changing all my settings back I start get force closes for all google apps. I cleared the dalvik cache and all google and sprint apps force close. I noticed this rom lags alot more than the previous one too. Before you release something as "fixed" make sure its fixed. I'd recommend everyone needing a stable phone to flash back to the 1.2c rom. I had no problems with that rom.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dcdave63:
Just loaded this, and I must say it seems to me faster than the 1.2's by more than I expected. Works great for me! Thanks!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] posguy99:
And maybe it's only you. Funny, but mine's not crashing at all.

What, did you delete something you shouldn't have?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] posguy99:
If you did this from within recovery, then the sdcard wasn't mounted, and the file didn't end up where you think it did. You might go look under the mountpoint and see if there's a zip file sitting there.

Why people think they have to use adb to put the recovery.img on the sdcard, I have no idea.

Ahhh, that's very telling. Unless you explicitly enable USB-MS, the card isn't accessible.

No, as people have endlessly explained in multiple threads, apps2sd uses an EXT partition on the sdcard and doesn't have anything to do with the space you see in the filesystem.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fr0st:
is there something special I need to do to make wifi tether work is this rom?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
I have found this ROM to be

VERY

stable!

You should reserve judgement until further investigation.;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fr0st:
please disregard this .. I figured out the it was because I flashed a newer rom and did not perform a "wipe" before installing this. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] afazel:
I'm having the same thing, although I don't intend to be as rude as the post I'm quoting :P

1.1 works just fine for me, though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] posguy99:
You don't want to use 1.1, it pre-dates the Sprint MR and you have bugs.
