For the record, I tried replacing this kernel with the current CDMA Hero kernel and it seemed to do the same thing as without. I am assuming this was built using this kernel.

I also replaced the /system/lib/libhtc_ril.so file with the one from our current Hero builds but that was a huge mistake. Many force closes and it didnt connect to the network at all. It just showed an x by the radio icon.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chuckhriczko:
Oh and I also tried sending a text and it force closes the messages app and refuses to send. Browser works on wifi but no multitouch?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tvrvic:
I noticed the same thing, I guess the display is different between the GSM and the CDMA?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] N0J:
I hope we can get this one figured out, it would be very cool to get to use this widget until we get everything fully going on 2.1 :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] toastcfh:
u know i dont remember. but i know it was an android widget and its in there i used it. its late and i already flash back to 1.5 for research. but yeah its in there and it works.:D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] N0J:
I've seen it work when 2.1 1st dropped, but want to pull it and load it in 1.5 until multi-touch and accelerometer are working.

everyone here has done an awesome job so far!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ajones7279:
Wow. Sprint and HTC needs to get this thing going. I played around with it last night and it's cool.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wasupwithuman:
yeah, they should fire all the current HTC/Sprint developers and hire these guys... I mean... Think about it, the devs here can accomplish sooooo much with out a paycheck, or kernel source code... You guys are amazing, thanks for all the work.... after Christmas, i'm sure you all will get donations atleast from ME.... :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chuckhriczko:
Im not so sure it's an apk. It actually may just be part of Launcher.apk. Im running this rom (have been for days now and I love it! Actually making a Gutted based off of this) and I havent seen an apk for it at all. I removed all files that I was unsure of what they did and the widget remained. This leads me to believe it is a part of the 2.0+ Launcher.apk. Also, for this rom, maybe HTC included it in Rosie.apk. I don't know but either way there is no seperate apk for it in this rom that I can see.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 27s:
I think the powerbar or whatever it is called is acutally located in settings.apk, or something like that. It does not have its own .apk. I am still trying to figure out the god forsaken weather/worldclock...I hate when things work like once or twice, then crap out. When I get those figured out, I will try to work on the powerbar.

@ chuck. The powerbar is an android widget. It is also available in the AOSP 2.0 ROM
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Orangeandblue302:
are you talking about the bar with all of the setting widgets? If so simply longpress the homescreen, select widgets and add the power control widget.

-nevermind i misread the comment. You are trying to port this over to 1.5 correct?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Orangeandblue302:
Has anyone figured out how to get data to work? I am cool when im at home cuz of the wifi but our WiFi at work is blocked so now web for me when im there :-(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thorracing1:
data has worked for awhile
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Orangeandblue302:
weird I cant seem to get any data connection.Internet and web based widgets just get the "Browser cannot open webpage because of no connection" prompt.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thorracing1:
try re downloading the rom maybe you have the older version
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Orangeandblue302:
WOW! After i restore my phone then wipe and Reflash I remembered that I never turned on the "Data Connection when Away from WiFi"

Super Facepalm!!!! LOL

Edit - Does anyone know if we can push the Lockscreen from the AOSP build to this ROM? I really miss the spin to unlock feature from that build.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sm_x:
everything is moving much faster now, we might see everything working before the new year.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] N0J:
spin to unlock feature?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wasupwithuman:
well one small thing i've noticed is if you try to calibrate the gsensor it says calibration aborted, but if you keep pressing calibrate, after about the 4th time it will say calibration successful... But it still doesn't work... So I tried pulling some of the AKM8973 (this was the only thing that looked like the accelerometer to me, but im a newb) files in /dev/bin/ (i learned that you can't pull from /dev/bin) and /system/ and the /misc directory (the directories might be wrong that im listing, just cause im tired and don't remember too much) from my old hero (broken screen running fresh 1.0) and push them to my new hero in the same directory. no luck or anything but yeah, i tried a little...hahaha. I'm a senior member now, so I got to make it look like im doing something :P
[Hero CDMA Android Development] djsplitimage:
Just wanted to give you guys a standing ovation for the work that you're doing. Wish I knew a little bit about this stuff so I could contribute, and I think that's the beauty of the Android platform, anyone can contribute. Coming from a Winmo device to this has been a great experience. The Hero is the first phone I've every had with a touchscreen keyboard and I was wondering how I would adapt but it's been smooth sailing with everything right out the box. Now with the work on getting 2.1 on our devices (even before Sprint & HTC put it out there) I'm just amazed. Hell, this is better customer service than what any company can give because you guys actually KNOW what you're talking about lol.

Anyway, keep up the good work, and I know I speak for alot of us readers when I say we're looking forward to finally getting Eclair on our devices.

Remove the HtcLockScreen.apk

# adb remount

# adb shell rm system/app/HtcLockScreen.apk
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tom3k:
suggestions and props

this is where i look like a lurk....

been around xda for awhile (mda, wing, g1, and i have no clue what else I have utilized this valuable resource for)

neither here nor there, cdma hero mod scene is on point right now. i hope devs keep up the momentum.

A few things I would like to throw out there for next release/update patch:

1)Patch to Remove HTC Lock.

A)either to be able to revert to default vanilla eclair rotate lock or Fresh 1 transparent lock lest the "LOCK" itself​

*I understand that you can remove the HTC Lockscreen via ADB but given the convience of being able to switch between these without command prompt would be great​

2)Patch to use default vanilla eclair dialer as in AOSP rom

*I do not know if the dialer gui is simply a graphic or if it has a bunch of dependencies so I dont know how realistic this is. I just feel like the vanilla eclair dialer is more responsive/accurate/aesthetically pleasing​

3)IF ALL ELSE FAILS: A PATCH TO DISABLE ALL OF SENSE UI AND TO JUST UTILIZE THE DEFAULT UI AS FOUND IN AOSP rom.

/suggestions

Experiences with current build:

Have had reliable uptime. Very infrequent force quits (when things do it is usually because i am really pushing it. GPS and HSD are flawless. Boot time is reasonable. Weather widget not working as reported. Multiple facebook apps are redundant as far as I can tell (again not a dev so I do not know what the dependences are). Additionally on the Facebook topic, which app given that both are required to be present in the rom is the most integrated/best? I am going to continue to kick my phones ass to push it to the limit.

Thank You again everybody on this and all of the other CDMA hero rom projects.

ps. does anyone have a status on mms or album app??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] magicalan:
does open home work?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tom3k:
i installed home++ beta and it worked without a hitch.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] magicalan:
I wanna try it so bad ....what dialer does it have?! screenshots please :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] durhamite:
I flashed it today to take a quick peek to see what it was like. Seemed really smooth and I liked it. Can't wait for it to be complete. Great work guys. Like may others, I am planning on donating after Christmas!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rustyman14:
I uploaded it on my phone just to see whats its going to be like and the only thing that i didnt like was that it was very laggy other then the things that arent working which i already new about..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tom3k:
me. i wiped my phone as a result. i was worried they would push and be merged with my gmail contacts which luckily they werent. i think it has to do with either the redundant facebook apps or a new integration feature or maybe even facebook's new privacy policy. all of that is speculation of course. a solid (maybe) answer would be nice. a way to get around the extensive list and whittle away at a majority of the contacts is to under people press menu->view->only contacts with phone numbers or something to that effect.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] magicalan:

it doesnt have the 2.0 slide lock thing :p
[Hero CDMA Android Development] intx:
Love it fresh.

Keep up the great work bro :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] toastcfh:
Ok... I. Don't wanna be a ****. But let's just keep this dev. I'm not really trying to add a bunch of fancy **** to the Rom just yet. What is important is to fix what's wrong. Not to get side tracked with trying to get new things in the build. If u wanna spend ur time doing it then that's fine but its enough to sort out what's not working. Like camera,gsensor,ect... I'm not trying to single anyone out or make an example out of u or anyone else. But till the harware is fixed what use is a fancy toggle or lock screen. As it stands now u could use this Rom allday everyday. But without the hw features of the phone. So please everyone let's stick to the topic. Development....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tom3k:
huh?

again not to be a ****.

i believe my post wasnt directed at any particular dev or member. i agree that priority 1 should be to get the rom to 100%. however the post that i made did say that i would not mind seeing these things as updates or addon features that can be applied by people that are interested. i am in no way indicating that you should drop your current workings of getting something like the "click" function to work on the trackball or the weather app to work or something deeper than that. again i said it in the post that i am not a dev. i am at the mercy of the dev community and what they provide. however if that community is not going to be positively receptive to what people want to see or how they feel about a rom's build, in essence its not really a community at all. these roms are your babies and that is fine and i am not trying to tell you how to raise your kids. i feel that the things i stated hold valid ground and i am sure that there are other interested people. this is a forum for development yes. developers look here to make progress yes. i am just providing something other than "FLASHING NOW CANT WAIT!!!! OMG" i just posted development build end user feedback that is essential to any creative process such as this. if

you

do not want to manifest anything that i suggested that is fine. but there are others here far more capable than me that might be able to do these small ui changes. if they come about or not i am still going to use this build.:confused:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bobdude5:
okay first of all i have no idea what im doing and i do not understand the android htc framework bla bla stuff

so anyway i tried pulling the libcamera and the stuff related to it from fresh rom to this one and it went to a the white camera icon then a black screen ( i was excited this point) then it restarted ahah

pointless i know but just thoughtd i share lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] toastcfh:
lol....anyhow i got location to work. yay!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Thomas1218:
And there was much rejoicing:D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] toastcfh:
yes... it shows my current city in weather and on the clock. woot!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] katmandu421:
Yes, it does. It's just "underneath" the HTC lock screen. Remove HtcLockScreen.apk
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Ska8erMush:
:D yay! is that gonna make the clock application work now that it knows location correctly?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lonerebel:
Any chance your change fixed google navigation?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] toastcfh:
are u talking bout slow gps reads?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] adelaney:
None

You kind of sound like one in this little rant of yours.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] blankd3ckskat3r:
Toast is right. This is a DEVELOPMENT thread noone wants to see posts about what requests people are making. Its strictly DEVELOPMENT, getting this to work properly. Dont call him a **** because he asked nicely.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] magicalan:
how exactly? why nobody posts screenshots :P

does it have htc at all? XD

what about the dialer :O
[Hero CDMA Android Development] boredmug:
I agree. Add in all the junk you want after the fact. I don't see a point wasting time adding things when we still lack core functions.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tom3k:
did you read the post that i made that toast felt warranted his given response? does anybody know how to read a thread or just troll... thats what the chans are for. and also my rebuttal should be read before you start **** riding toast.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] WhiteWidows:
Stay on topic! Dont reply unless is regarding the development of getting this ROM working 100%
[Hero CDMA Android Development] blankd3ckskat3r:
first of all **** my post wasnt directed at you it was directed at the person who called toast a ****. so stfu obviously you dont read forum posts you scroll thru them.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 702DROID:
PLEASE LETS STAY ON TOPIC THIS IS A DEVOLPERS THREAD

once the devoplers get this working right im sure they will ask people what they want to see in the next update
[Hero CDMA Android Development] buck1623:
so any howto get the weather/clock working... need to get to my alarm asap...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JoeyRev:
All i wanna see is this project work 100%, all these guys here on XDA work their butts off to make us happy n all people can do is slander at each other.. XDA RULEZZ, that is why we all here to help one another n not BASH one another..so lets keep on the thread n hope for this project to get 100% workin..let's get FREEESSHHHHH.

XDA RULEZZ!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] toastcfh:
its just my opinion. if u ask me the hardware and issues we have now are enough to sort out. really, would u have bought the hero if it had no gsensor, camera,multi-touch,force closed everytime u touched the clock or weather widget? hell no u wouldnt!!! this rom is in dev. meaning its not done. hell look at the list of **** thats broke and "NEEDS" to be fixedjust for it to be fully functional. now from my point of view its pointless to put abunch of time and effort into adding more junk to debug through. but hell if u wanna or anyone else wants to take this thing apart and add a fancy lock screen or whatever do it. im just saying im not interested in doing that. i think its useless and the next build im gonna release ive already started cleaning up and removing things from. sorry if i offended u or anyone but for now the build is in dev. but take it how u want too. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 27s:
By the by, I did post a screen shot of me getting weather working. Smartass. XD. It seems as. Though toast has beaten me to making it consistent. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nebj00la:
Seriously people... I'm about to vote for an IQ check before people are allowed to post in the developer forums.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] buck1623:
u mind posting how to get it to work?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] katmandu421:
Look at the thread on how to remove apps (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=581976). You will need to adb into your device and do this

#mount -a

#rm HtcLockScreen.apk

Sorry no screenshot, but it looks like the Droid 2.0 (prior to the latest 2.0.1 update last week or so) lockscreen with the rotating dial unlocker.

Hope this helps!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wasupwithuman:
DO you know who your talking to? last person who talked to toast like that ended up in a dumpster outside of the hilton in new york.... :D

in other words toast does a lot around here, don't talk to a dev like that.

on the other hand, i might have missed it when i was looking, but how did toast get location to work?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] toastcfh:
i made some changes to the build prop. the market is still being a *****. but the weather widget shows current location now without crashing. um.. also after setup it asks if its ok for google to use ur location. so sweet... now just to get these apks worked out. i think some of issues are in there. i noticed in settings.apk there is a ref to bma150. which is the compass ****. so woot just gotta port it over and get it to sign right. anyhow ill be releasing a newer build soon. itll be a single wipe updat. but itll have everything i got so far in it. im just hoping to get the market and atleast some of these apks to install. just kinda ****in with it tryin all i can.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] katmandu421:
"Compass ****" would that be the digital compass? It'd be awesome to get geobeagle working on this build :)

How is GPS? my 2.1 v1.5 is kinda hit and miss with accuracy. Network loc is pretty solid in maps, though. I'd be happy to give er a test for you. Thinking of wiping tomorrow and trying to download again, so wouldn't mind giving yours a go beforehand. PM if interested.

Cheers.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Negrito:
are you going to post it here, fresh's blog, or both? Just dont want to miss it. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wasupwithuman:
cool. can't wait! :D have you had any luck with the gsensor?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 27s:
Worldclock fixed. I think. XD

The proof is in the pictures.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Ska8erMush:
wow awesome! this is what i was needing for daily use! :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 27s:
Alrighty..

Worldclock with correct weather/location - Done.

Correct Weather Widget - Done.

Weather full app - Not so much (still force close)

Again, proof in pictures.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] bobdude5:
nice job man!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] VoXHTC:
Can I push the albums.apk from 1.5 over to this rom so I can view my pictures and change my wallpaper and lockscreen?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] katmandu421:
I pushed gallery.apk which is the vanilla photo viewer, not HTC-ized, and that works for viewing phots, setting wallpaper and lockscreens, etc. It can be found here http://www.buttonclicker.com/2009/12/02/googlebits-signed_v1-1/
[Hero CDMA Android Development] VoXHTC:
You sir ,are all right! Don't let anyone tell you different. Thank you!

UPDATE: force close when trying to set lock screen , otherwise works great! thanks again!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lonerebel:
Google maps was working just fine for me with the ROM. The gps reads seemed regular enough but when switching over to google navigation, a message would appear saying waiting for gps and stay there indefinitely. Rendering the app pretty much unusable.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] venumx:
yoo 27, you mind pointin me in the right direction of what to edit in the APKs in order to get them working, is it the xml files that are the primary concern or what? i have the programming background to do it, i just need to know where to start...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skola28:
I was able to get the Google Nav to detect the GPS signal a couple times, but was very unreliable.

Everything seems to be working as described. Good work peeps. It actually seemed a bit snappier than 1.5. I went back to 1.5 b/c of the Clock issue and some wonky things that seemed to be happening with my Facebook contacts and my Gmail contacts. I love how fast it is to swap between ROMs: SOOO NICE.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theoottesen:
Been running this for almost 2 days, everything is running great, some widgets are fc but i dont believe it to be the rom.

Side note, this is the longest i have seen this thread idle, something must be brewing.... :D

almost forgot, i cant seem to get a gps lock at all....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bobdude5:
deng they got the sensors working in the vanilla 2.0 cant wait till they work here :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chuckhriczko:
Looks like the devs can do it too. Here is what they did for AOSP:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 27s:
Working on it right now. XD
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chuckhriczko:
Dude, I'll hug you, no homo :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 27s:
Yea...it is gonna have to wait for tomorrow. Keyboards don't like drool! :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] N0J:
very exciting!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] toastcfh:
Yeah I'm stuck at work for the next 7 hours:(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] phonetec:
work?? quit and devote all your time to this :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Nodata:
I'm stuck at work too. I wish there were a way I could help contribute while I'm just sitting here.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] magicalan:
cant remove lockscreen it says device not found.. :S
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chuckhriczko:
Can we keep non dev issues such as lockscreen on another thread please? Also is anyone experiencing issues with installing apps from the market? It keeps saying install unsuccessful.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] normano80:
I've installed a few apps from the market and have only run into unsuccessful installs on the HTC widgets. I can understand those due to the HERO and Droid ERIS restrictions if they are enforcing OS version and other things.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wasupwithuman:
Make sure you have usb debugging enabled in your application settings on your hero.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] toastcfh:
Ok... the gsensor fix isn't gonna be cut and dry. It's gonna take some work to get this fix in. I'm on it though so keep ur toes crossed. ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] N0J:
toes, fingers, arms, ears.... whatever you need ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] toastcfh:
starting to cramp yet?! lol:p
[Hero CDMA Android Development] acm2117:
I'm starting to druel! I cant wait till ya'll get the camera and the accelerometer working! Then i will install this rom for daily use :):)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 27s:
The camera is going to be a long time coming, unless we can get something out of flan.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] adelaney:
I feel that they are essential as well, just thought you went a little overboard with your response. Could have been handled in one sentence, and then moved on. Heres a member just asking some questions, doesn't have the knowledge but share's a passion for the android os, and bammm; you read him the riot act. Just didn't seem necessary.

And FYI, I didn't call you anything. Just said your statement made you sound like one. Peace. FRESSSSHHHHH
[Hero CDMA Android Development] quietcblongs:
I did a little poking around, and I think framework.jar and core.jar is definitely modified. For libs, I think libandroid_runtime and libandroid_servers.

Try using those files from my build and see how it goes. Although I think you might need to repack the jar files with the files I modded if HTC did anything custom with them (they shouldn't if they follow good programming practice).
