That's about the same amount of ram I have. Take the battery off the back and tell us what the numbers say on the sticker
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omokas:
Sorry my WHOLE ram is shown as "192MB" with the application System Monitor.

Please tell me if I got a faulty , 2nd handed , special , fake edition of this phone...

It doesen't have an operator logo in the phone or outside.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omokas:
On the sticker it says :

IMEI : 3579XXXXXXXXXXX

S/N : HT97NL906926

P/N : 99HHM005-00 A

What is this "A" ? There is only one letter , "A".
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soulehmoo:
the serial number seems right for a genuine hero.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mancsoulja:
yeah that looks like a htc s/n . . . . . .
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
That is correct - Hero has 288mb of RAM, but 96mb is reserved for the operating system itself, so you only "see" 192mb.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omokas:
Oh god thank you for your answer. I thank everyone in this topic for his/her help , is much appreciated.

Sorry to ask another question but I want to hack my HTC Hero and flash ROM. What is the best ROM for now and how can I flash it without many risk ? Also what is called "RADIO" and "SPL" and what should I do to "update" them without many risk ? I have heard of many bricks and I want my phone to be OK. I want you to know that I am not a n00b with PC hacking or Console hacking.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendong2:
there is no spl on the hero, at least none you could/would/wanted to change at the moment (or are we calling the recovery spl now? i am a little bit confused right now...). do NOT flash any spl files (true even though i am confused, if it is the recovery image it will be called recovery image, not spl), as they are for the g1/dream. there is a thread where someone's brother flashed the spl, afaik his hero was bricked afterwards. the rest is out there, best rom is mcr2.9 so far (i think this is safe to say, as all other roms aren't that much developed or without issues. i hope i do not offend the other romcookers out there, which also do a great job nonetheless. it's just that imho paul is best at the moment ;) )

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omokas:
Thanks again for the answer. It would be much appreciated if you can add me on MSN , iRC or another chat client so I can install the rom you suggested.

If you use msn then please add me atimoterataki@hotmail.com

Sorry for my english.

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
SPL = HBOOT.

See this thread for a bit more detail, but bear in mind that these are *NOT* for the Hero, so don't attempt to flash them.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendong2:
ok, thanks for the clarification. i think we should stick to hboot, less potential for confusion with other devices/files.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Arktronic:
You really should have posted this in the Q&A forum instead. As for your question, you generally want a ROM that matches your language. As such, I would guess that whatever Asian ROM you were looking at is for another language, which would not be good for you (unless you understand that language of course). In general, though, the ROM should technically "work".

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peaman427:
hi everyone, i seem to be having a whole lota problem with the backswapping automatically enabling. i'm currently running cyanogen 4.2.5. My problem is this. when i first boot up my g1 and adb shell free, i get swap 0'z all across the board. when i run the adb shell sh /system/sd/userinit.sh and go back into adb shell free, the swap becomes 24mb. now if i reboot my g1 and check adb shell free, the swap goes back to 0. is it supposed to be like this? or do i have to enable the script everytime i reboot my g1. i searched the forums and there is just too much info. i'm a very newb. very much appreciated.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Janis:
Try Swapper on Market. It's worth it.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B-man007:
Do you have a user.conf file?

Instead of swapper, i would recommend the user.conf creator application on the market.

you can enable compcache and backing swap from there
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peaman427:
yeah i've tried downloading the new user.conf and userinit.sh, pushed them both into the /system/sd and chmod 755 both. still no luck.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peaman427:
went to market and downloaded swapper and seems to be working nicely now. can i get rid of user.conf and userinit.sh now that i have swapper?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
you could but you should keep it just in case.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peaman427:
hmmm i can't seem to adb mount anything, keeps tell me that device or resource is busy. i tried uninstalling swapper and still the problem. ugh!

My (Snooper) sat nav with hands-free function pairs perfectly with my other 3 phones and my G2 pairs with my Tom Tom 720 but not with the Snooper AVN730. I've been told I need a software update or patch, but where do I find this please?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
Who told you that you need a software update/patch? If you are on a 2.73.xxx firmware for the G2, you have the latest version for the phone, so perhaps they are talking about a patch for the Snooper?

Regards,

Dave
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] womanita:
Suggested by the company where I bought/had fitted the Snooper & by T-Mobile!

Hmm - what else might be causing the problem? I've been told it's because Bluetooth versions change when new equipment come out, though the Snooper is only a couple of months old too.

I found my way to this site by searching solutions to this problem and apparently someone else got a patch for the G2 phone which sorted the problem out (they had some other sat nav though).

I'll have a go at searching from the Snooper side too but if anyone can suggest other solutions I'd be grateful
[Android Themes] Ace42:
So im working on a themed eclair and the others but want to know what colors people would like to see.:D
[Android Themes] Cybrasty:
I always preferred grey + light blue with unified icons matching the overall design.
[Android Themes] schtuka:
White and Black versions would work. Common issue with black themes is that search, music and power widgets stay white or from Community Hero theme. I prefer XRom black widgets. Also in Black theme the drawer tab should be black too or transparent. One color for highlights is also needed. Whether it is going to be blue or green or stock orange don't matter as long as it is consistent through out the theme.
[Android Themes] USHERROB:
Black w/ either blue, green, yellow, or stock orange highlights. Also add in Eclair transitions w/ blur menu bounces
[Android Themes] SuperDave479:
Hero-like theme with Advanced Launcher, Ted's launcher bar, black notification bar with Hero icons and for the regular icons, Eclair. Blur animations. Black themed widgets. Compatible with Cyanogen. Basically like pdudek's Orange Hero theme but with green highlights instead of orange. Ted did one a while back like this but stopped that theme and hasn't updated to even the latest Cyan releases for over a month.

Multiple versions with different color highlights in each version would be a plus, such as red. Pcmaniacs has something similar with his theme, but he changed the notification bar icons to 3D ones and has started changing some of the text to the highlight colors as well, yuck.

I'd go to a Hero ROM but I've got to have Bluetooth, or else my Bluetooth headset won't do me much good...
[Android Themes] Masterloki666:
Black with blue highlights dark and slick custom drawtables, widgets the only way to go lol
[Android Themes] rp1783:
How about a yellow eclair theme?

I'm working on one, but it's so time consuming.
[Android Themes] MurderDeathKill:
What ever you do DONT match the icons with the theme! I hate that. I get these nice theme like icons that look nothing like all the other icons out there for apps.
[Android Themes] antonio91282:
theme the bar

i been searching the forums for weeks looking for a themed hero rom where the bar is transparent or completely invisible. can you do something like that?

Hi all,

Got a ipaq 612c with english rom a few weeks ago. Needed french xt9 input ; Hp support if of absolutely no help.

Just managed to extract the xt9 files from an incomplete french rom, and installed them on the english rom, with a small registry adjustment. Works beautifully. Works on wm 6 and 6.1. Not tested for 6.5.

I've seen many post from users struggling to find french xt9.

So, if anyone is interested in the files, I'll send them with instruction for registry.

Cheers.

is there any application or way to spoof my location? for example, i am subject to games that are blacked out due to my location in the United States for the application NBA league pass, and i need a way to bypass this by telling the application i am some place where i actually am not.

thanks in advance for any responses
[G1 General] jad011:
you can spoof your ip address which will show that your connection is in a different place. and no i cannot tell you where to get something that can spoof your ip... google.com
[G1 General] lbcoder:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but NBA league pass is a directv app, right? Linked with your directv account... and its location is based on the MAILING ADDRESS that you gave to directv, and I believe that this means that your *actual* location is irrelevant.
[G1 General] donutman:
Actually, if the NBA LP app is anything like NBA LP Broadband, which I believe it is, they do blackouts based on internet service location. I use my friends NBA Broadband account and he registered and lives in LA. I'm in Houston and Rockets games are blacked out for me. So it doesn't matter where you bought the subscription because it blacks out based on where you are when you are watching.

I have been trying to use 32B ROM's with 32A Sapphire and Magic device. I found that most of 32B ROM's works with 32A. How? Just do full wipe using Recovery RA-magic-v1.3.2 at below link:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=530492 (thanks Amon_RA)

Perform the following wipes using RA-magic-v1.3.2 before flashing the 32B ROM on 32A device:

1- Wipe data partition.

2- Wipe cache partition.

3- Wipe Dalvik-cache

4- Wipe SD:ext partition

Then flash any 32B ROM zip file on 32A regular way using recovery mode.

Then apply without a wipe 32A_UPDATE_Stable.zip (Thanks eugene373's)from below link.

http://alldroid.org/viewtopic.php?f=130&t=449

Reboot the phone and wait for 5 to 8 mins.

unfortuantely it is only 32B's SenseHero ROM series that is not flashable to 32A so far. :mad:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] FirstNoobToBrickHisPhone:
I did exactly what you did and SenseHero's latest works just fine.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Filgaliel:
Very interesting. Thanks..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] nabor:
Is that means that I can use the Vodafone ROM on a HTC device?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Case_:
I wouldn't encourage this, as you're effectively replacing the ROM's original ramdisk with the one from eugene's 32A update, which might create unforseen problems. And most often than not you're also mixing different versions of kernel and kernel modules thus creating a bad "hybrid" while stripping the ROM of possible additional functionality.

If you want to make 32B ROM run on 32A, at least do it properly instead of encouraging hacks such as this one...:/
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] suur13:
But regarding speed and other features (besides BT) is there any difference do I run some 2.6.29 kernel on 32A radio or 32B radio ?

I have native 32B (with 96MB swap set up on my SD). Shall I run:

- 32A radio and ROM (w 2.6.29, as BT filetransfer don't work on Sense anyway)

- 32B radio and ROM

Well which radio, ROM and kernel combo is "fastest" (regarding ringtone-lag, 3G, Wi-Fi, GPS etc.) ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] arahma:
Kernel has to match the radio always, so if your radio is 32A radio you must use 32A Kernel. The advantage of 2.6.27 32A Kernel is it has working BT compared to 2.6.26 32A kernel.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] suur13:
Thank you. But I know this :p.

My question was - is there anything ELSE which is different besides possibility to get BT working ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] arahma:
The answer is no. Bluetooth does not work on any Hero 32B ROMs.

Hello,

Only started having this problem today, when you select "tap to compose text" it just doesnt recognise it.

I press it say 20 times and it'll pick it up.

It seems more apparent in contacts with a large thread of messages.

Is anyone else having this problem?
[HD2 General] kaiserkannon:
yeah i get the same exact thing in long threads. immensely frustrating. also scrolling up and down is very laggy in my long message threads. after ten seconds the scrolling becomes smooth and then when i tap to compose text it does a much better job. i think the leo messages program takes a bit to load long threads and until its loaded it refuses to let you tap to compose text.
[HD2 General] polystirenman:

yeah me too absolutely the same problem.... :(
[HD2 General] Nit3m4re:

[HD2 General] joropug:
Is there a fix for it? At the moment im deleting my threads of texts every day but i usually like to keep all my messages.

HTC phones are brilliant, but what annoys me is that its left to third parties to fix problems like this, when HTC should be picking up themselves.

Surely cant be that hard to rectify!
[HD2 General] pympster:
Quessing still no fix?
[HD2 General] DavidC1980:
You're guessing right :(
[HD2 General] joropug:
I seem to be getting an intermittent problem where for no apparent reason the "phone keypad" mode just types numbers.

I don't think im pressing a button of any description, and when i switch to full qwerty, it works, but if i go back to the phone keypad, it still just types numbers.

any ideas?
[HD2 General] joropug:
Anyone? any comments appreciated
[HD2 General] halling:
I also have the problem that the phone types in X number of letters/number when typing sms without me doin anything.

There are actually a lot of bugs in the phone, hopefully HTC will fix some of them soon with freezing and sms problems.

Hi there,

since all the great tweakers seem to take shelter in this forum, I'd like to post my concern right here.

Actually I come from a german Leo-Forum, but there are so many links to the xda-guys, that I'm sure I'm better off here.

It's about the clock of the native homescreen. I'd like it to be darker, meaning that the sheets should be of a very dark grey for instance. Would it be possible to make a cab, that changes only the clock, leaving everything else as it is? I'm not much of an it-expert, so please excuse me, if this question is kinda silly. :o
