You have to adb remount everytime you either disconnect the phone or reboot it.
[Hero CDMA General] daveydave:
Ahh, thanks. Still a bit of a noob on this, but the ROM is great!
[Hero CDMA General] gu1dry:
First post updated to makes things easier.
[Hero CDMA General] riotkid976:
I'm not sure if this is a gbits bug, or a 1.6 bug so i'll post it here first.

I've noticed that when I get a gmail notification, the LED switches to a constant 'on' state until the notification is cleared. It also has quite an effect on the battery life.

Has anyone else experienced this (it could be me, I've noticed some VERY wonky things on my phone that no one else seems to be reporting)?
[Hero CDMA General] fchipm:
You may want to try "Gmail Notifier" from the Market. Not sure it will fix the issue, but it's a different method of notifications and that could work.

Plus, it is MILES above Android's default Gmail notification system.
[Hero CDMA General] john.c:
Info on adding in Voice Search might be good to add to the opening post two. There is a tiny bit of info about it here. Only problem is it doesn't seem to be working properly right now with quietcblongs' 1.6 AOSP ROM. :( Force closes every time on launch. Has anyone else had this issue?
[Hero CDMA General] riotkid976:
well, after that I can now confirm that LED blinking isn't an option for me when it comes to gmail notifications. Even if I set the notifier to "blink" it stays on. My only option is to set the LED to off. What is odd is that it will blink fine for any of my other notifications.

When I get out of class in a couple hours, I'll wipe and re-flash everything and see if that helps...
[Hero CDMA General] david_ag:
I flahsed 1.6 and had this same issue too, I don't think it's your phone.
[Hero CDMA General] gu1dry:
This has been an issue for while. It's a smaller issue, so quiet is not focusing on it. Until he gets the bigger issues resolved.
[Hero CDMA General] riotkid976:
Good to know its not just me!
[Hero CDMA General] daveydave:
Funny, this issue caused me to go back to 1.5. I need my gmail push. Bluetooth is small potatoes to me since I don't use a headset, so that was fine.

The other issue with this ROM is that location services doesn't seem to work without GPS (ie it won't use the cell tower to locate you). I don't want to keep my GPS on to have locale work.
[Hero CDMA General] gu1dry:
Gmail pushes just fine. It's just the notification light stays solid, instead of blinking.
[Hero CDMA General] daveydave:
Not for me. I must have tested that for an hour, sending myself mail from another account. On 1.5 my inbox always reflected my online inbox. If I deleted any mail on my PC browser in Gmail, it never updated on 1.6 unless I manually hit refresh.
[Hero CDMA General] gu1dry:
Factory wipe, Dalvik wipe, reflash AOSP 1.6 & Gbits & see if that changes anything.
[Hero CDMA General] Gregalous:
I'm having the same issue.
[Hero CDMA General] andyriot:
hah wish i found this thread a few days ago! i had to manually find the HTC keyboard etc! this is a great resource for AOSP 1.6 though!
[Hero CDMA General] daveydave:
I'll give that a shot, haven't heard of the Dalvik wipe. Is that a more thorough wipe than the factory one in the menu? I'll let you know what I find out.
[Hero CDMA General] gu1dry:
The factory wipe, from my understanding, is supposed to wipe the Dalvik-cache. But I have seen before where you have to specifically wipe the Dalvik-cache, along with a factory wipe, to get results.
[Hero CDMA General] daveydave:
Dalvik wipe

Well, interesting. I did a factory/data rest wipe, then tried to do the Dalvik wipe. It said "Error: Run "wipe dalvik" via adb!" Ok, so I did an adb shell, and typed "wipe dalvik". I got:

wipe dalvik

unmounting /data

No ext partition found!

Also, I noticed that when I type "adb remount" I get:

adb server is out of date. killing...

* daemon started successfully *

remount failed: Invalid argument

Any ideas with that? I re-downloaded the sdk to make sure I had the latest (thinking that the adb.exe was too old), but no difference.
[Hero CDMA General] Is_907:
I'm having that same issue. Not a big deal, as everything is working okay for me at the moment.
[Hero CDMA General] ruben8448:
Hey is there anyway to get Sprint navigation on the 1.6
[Hero CDMA General] gu1dry:
When your in the recovery & you do an "adb remount" you will get that error. That is normal & that's will happen.

And with some people they do have some issue wiping the Dalvik-cache with 1.5.2.
[Hero CDMA General] riotkid976:
So i wiped and reflashed in hopes of losing the duplicate notifications from the stock messaging app; but the issue persists.
[Hero CDMA General] daveydave:
Well, I have to say, so far so good with the Gmail push! I'm not exactly sure what was different, but it definitely wasn't doing this yesterday. Possibly the extra wipe (though it didn't appear to work), or using the googlebits patch instead of manually copying. I think it's safe enough to upgrade my wifes Hero too.

If only location services would work without gps I'd be golden.
[Hero CDMA General] gu1dry:
Are you using a GVoice for SMS at all?
[Hero CDMA General] riotkid976:
Nope, just handcent.
[Hero CDMA General] daveydave:
Missing Market apps?

There are a couple free apps that I used to have loaded on 1.5 that are now nowhere to be found in the market. One is the Verizon FIOS app, and the other is one called EEBA for budgeting. Is there something I can change so that those apps show up again?
[Hero CDMA General] rockcrawler:
I am actually missing a few paid apps.... the two I can think of off hand are Gentle Alarm, and Pure Calendar. Anyone have any ideas as to why they would not be there? Think they might show up eventually?
[Hero CDMA General] theraginasian:
Thank you so much for this! Without it, ASOP 1.6 would be basically unusable! Please continue, the work is top-notch and well appreciated!
[Hero CDMA General] theraginasian:
Hey, does anyone know if the custom Kernels we have floating around would work with this? I'll nandroid backup and find out myself, just curious if its been done yet.

Also, anyone think of a way to get some of the goodies that are favorite roms have? apps2sd is the big one. I've tried searching for some guides but can only seem to find information that is ROM specific, whereas I would need instructions from scratch.

Even without Optimization, compcache, and apps2sd, this thing still seems faster than any of the 1.5 roms by a noticeable margin.
[Hero CDMA General] beyondinferno:
So, Lockbot works now, just incase anyone tried it and failed. (happened to me a week ago)
[Hero CDMA General] JASII:
BetterBrowser

First of all, thank you very very much gu1dry for putting all these extra features in one place.

And I just wanted to share with you all that I was able to install Loccy's BetterBrowser from this forum post here. It seems to be working just fine and adds a few extra features that aren't included in the browser included in AOSP 1.6. All you have to do is pull the old browser and push Loccy's :)
[Hero CDMA General] Is_907:
Really? I tried yesterday morning (early) and I could install it but it would never show a new lockscreen.

I'll have to give it another go.
[Hero CDMA General] watzone69:
Yep, working for me too.
[Hero CDMA General] adelaney:
I kept having my protected apps disappear while switching roms, so finally I went into system/sd/private-apps and copied them to my Sd. Now I open from there and it reinstalls with no issue. Some of you prolly know this, but. just putting it out there.
[Hero CDMA General] gu1dry:
I already tried MCK1.2, gets stuck at the HTC screen.
[Hero CDMA General] rockcrawler:
+1, tried it various times last night with all sorts of wipes and nothing worked. :(
[Hero CDMA General] theraginasian:
Thanks for the heads up on MCK guys.
[Hero CDMA General] darchstar:
If i remember correctly, there was a problem with /bin/sh terminating almost immediately after the kernel was loaded. probably the reason is that the kernel binaries were modified to work on this ROM by quiet from the stock kernel, so modaco's libs aren't modified at all to work on here. Please correct me if i am wrong, but thats seems to be the reason it's not working, and it probably wont ever work until we can forward port the current kernel to .29.
[Hero CDMA General] adelaney:
I tried with 1.6 & 2.1 with no avail. Got stuck on HTC screen too.
[Hero CDMA General] theraginasian:
How about apps2sd? Every post with apps2sd instructions that I find only works if your ROM has built in support for it. What does a ROM need to have included with it to enable apps2sd, or is it simply creating symlinks? Any help on this is greatly appreciated.
[Hero CDMA General] theresthatguy:
there's a script that has to put into the boot.img. a2sd script must be in the system bin folder. and you'll need a sd folder placeholder.
[Hero CDMA General] watzone69:
Well, earlier I said that "Lockbot" was working. It still is but now I get BOTH lockscreens. Any way to disable the AOSP1.6 square-of-boredom lock?
[Hero CDMA General] rockcrawler:
+1, but i don't mind unlocking twice if it keeps me from pocket dialing my wife all the time.
[Hero CDMA General] theraginasian:
Hmm... I've lost Speakerphone for good regardless of reboot or headset toggle... headphones still output no problem though.

More frustrating at this point is the random loss of data. No way to turn it back on, forces me to reboot. Your best guess is as good as mine!

Any word on updates, future planned bug fixes? Really anything helps.
[Hero CDMA General] ffolkes:
I can't get most apps to show in Marketplace. Does anyone else have this problem? I've tried everything I can think of, but no luck. When I restored back to 1.5 (stock) most of my paid apps were gone from My Downloads too. I cleared the cache for Marketplace, rebooted, and it stock worked again at least. I tried this rom again, but it never shows all my paid apps. Any help would be most appreciated!
[Hero CDMA General] daveydave:
Still having issues with data turning off on it's own. So, yes, Gmail sync is still an issue on this ROM. Rebooting doesn't seem to help. It's pretty bad that I launch Gmail and it has emails in my inbox that I deleted days ago. Only hitting refresh does the job. I think as much as it hurts I have to head back to TTG 1.5 since there's no interest in fixing this. Sigh.
[Hero CDMA General] sleejay:
busybox --install gives me a metric crapton of errors... is that ok?
[Hero CDMA General] darchstar:
no.

go into adb shell and type "busybox --install /system/xbin"

you shouldn't get any problems
[Hero CDMA General] sleejay:
i must have done something wrong earlier, i just tried again and it worked perfectly. thanks!
[Hero CDMA General] Tipharet:
I keep getting FC when going through the google setup. I have wiped, wiped davik cache, and reflashed-but still have same error.

Video Playback after flashing AOSP 1.6 CDMA rom

Having issues while playing video back on my sprint hero phone. I can hear the audio of the file but the screen remains black. Are there any work arounds for this problem or has anyone else encounter it and how were you able to resolve the issue. I can watch youtube videos. Thanks.
[Hero CDMA General] gu1dry:
That means you have the video in an incompatible codec. This isn't an issue ROM. You will either, A.) find an app off of the Market that support that codec, or B.) convert the file use a compatible codec.
[Hero CDMA General] mrcharlesiv:
Can we use Stericson's lock screen with this AOSP?
[Hero CDMA General] riotkid976:
So, after wiping, unrooting and rerooting today i decided to play around with 1.6 some more. I still dont have a MIN so texts are hit and miss. Other than that, the only real issue im having (other than the known ones) is this pesky dual notifications.

Normally, it wouldnt be a big deal. I could just use the stock app and be ok. The problem is that it is happening because of a blacklisted contact.

When i first flashed this build, the error didnt happen. I installed handcent, metamorph, andexplorer and then flashed some themes and still no error. Installed beautiful widgets and twidroid, still no error. Then i installed barcode scanner and facebook. Then the error starts.

Of course, i uninstalled ALL the programs to see if it fixed it, but no dice. Maybe this info will trigger something in someones brain so they can help me troubleshoot this?

On a side note, im just now noticing that (at least in landscape mode) there is no typing assist in the browser. Im using the htc keyboard.
[Hero CDMA General] diablo3111:
i install this things wit the originaly room that its suppose to come wit

but one of my contacts cant recieve my textmessages

idk wats the matter

i tryed deleting it and i even tryed restoring the whole room

and installing it again

n notting seems to help any idea?
[Hero CDMA General] watzone69:
Text messaging is a problem for some people using the AOSP 1.6.

See more here.
[Hero CDMA General] dhowell1:
I have flashed with gbits but i dont have a data connection at all... i also don't even have the vanilla keyboard. I haven't tried to push the HTC one or anything it has just never been there.
[Hero CDMA General] Jwahlg:
Don't think so, Tried flashing a standalone zip, and it killed my install
[Hero CDMA General] bonly:
me too, contacts syncing doesn't work
[Hero CDMA General] gu1dry:
Wipe & reflash AOSP1.6 & Gbits.
[Hero CDMA General] rt1oo:
alright i have a stupid question...

Can I grab the APKs from, say, fresh 1.1 (/system/app/*) and push them to /system/app on AOSP 1.6 and will they work? because the vanilla camera app is downright awful and I feel like sense did some good things right.

anyway i'm going to try it now and if it doesn't work (good chance) I'll report back / whatever
[Hero CDMA General] gu1dry:
Probably won't work, due to Sense being embedded into almost everything on the stock Hero & have annoying dependencies.
[Hero CDMA General] rt1oo:
camera -no

browser - said it installed but nothing changed

MySMS - no luck

MMS - no

DCSWeather - no

WorldClock - no

But through flipz kitchen, i was actually able to install sprint navigation, so that's cool. but also has nothing to do with sense :P

thanks for this guys. i'm liking 1.6!

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asb123:
hey guys, I have been using the stock IM app and am not really satisfied. I use msn messenger not yahoo or aim. Is there another app which is better for msn?

My problem is that the IM app doesnt work well in the background. Almost always when i leave the app and open another app (browser or game ect.) then go back to IM it is signed out or it will say that zero of my contacts are offline. This means that while i think i am online and able to receive messages i am not.

Like I said is there another app that will work instead of doing what was listed above? Also it is not necessary but i would prefer it to have a quickjump in notifications, but I would prefer a working app than to have the notification quick jump.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anartic:
on the market there is an app called Hi MSN Beta, you can try that out, the dev for that app also has ones for AIM and Yahoo. I personally have never used any of them because I don't use MSN and Meebo works just fine for me.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjcforpres:
I like meebo and palringo. Both will do pretty much any IM.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asb123:
I checked out the comments on meebo and people are reporting the same signing out problem.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjcforpres:
Try out palringo then? I don't have that problem personally with meebo, but then again I think what causes the sign outs is Android "closing" the program to free up RAM, and I don't run a lot of programs. Just my browser, work email, google email, SMS, and my weather flip clock.... do use docs-2-go a fair amount in spurts here and there, as well will use many other programs from time to time. But for most people, they would say I don't use very many different programs.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilostchild:
Ebuddy is the one i use... and its pretty user friendly
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carnegie0107:
As was said, the reason you are being logged out is that you are running out of memory and Android is killing the IM application. Any other IM app you use, no matter WHAT it is, will have the exact same problem. In fact, the stock IM app is one of the lightest on memory, so it would probably be the best for you. Your real problem is that you have too many background services. Get a good task managing app, make sure you exclude your IM app, and kill all tasks regularly, and you should have much better luck.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asb123:
i use atk for task killling
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carnegie0107:
Okay, two questions:

1) is your IM app excluded?

2) how many tasks does it usually show running when you open ATK?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pkrattu:
I Tried out most of the IM Apps in the market and i would have to say that ebuddy would be the best one for me. I use Aim+Yahoo messenger + MSN. It works beautifully.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asb123:
So I tryied out hi man beta and it is perfect, it has the quick launch from notification and isn't signing me out. An added bounus is that it is made exclusively for msn so it supports everything encluding the ability to change your name and motto, sending emotions, winks, and to nudge. It also has many other features.

Loving it so far and I recomend it to anyone looking for an msn messanger app.

i just purchased my tp2 it came with 6.1 ...now ive been reading

about differant roms you can install...now im clueless to all this can i get tmobile to install 6.5 on my phone..i keep reading how to do it but it seems so difficult
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Rickmasta:
You can get a cooked rom with 6.5 (or even 6.5.3), but that's if you want to void your warrenty.

If you don't want to void your warrenty, and not in a rush, you can wait till Janauray 6th, supposedly T-mobile is supposed to be released their 6.5 update for the Dash 3G and TP2 on that day.

Let's hope that it's true.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] 1milenia:
will the update install automatically ...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cbreze:
6.5 is a totally diff ROm and cannot be installed ota. I'm sure they will give step by step instructions as for what to do and where to get it. If the above post is tru then it's only a 2 week wait. no sweat.:cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] MCbrian:
Here's where T-Mobile (USA) has offered previous upgrades to previous Windows Mobile phones:

Windows Mobile Upgrade

So seems like it'll appear there....and direct from HTC on their page for the T-Mo TP2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] bigoload:
When I went to purchase my TP2 at a tmobile store in November, they had a displayed TP2 running on 6.5. I asked if mines come with 6.5 and they said no, but they said that I should be able to upgrade it by early December. Now it seems that I will have to wait a couple or perhaps a few more weeks again (if nothing gets delayed). By the time the official 6.5 upgrade is out, I hear that winmobile 7 is already making its way out sometime early in 2010. Knowing that, I no longer want to wait for the official release of 6.5 and would just rather installed an unofficial released instead, but like Rickmasta said, it will void the warranty on the phone and the TP2 is a really pricey phone.
