Thanks for your help!

one more question..in this case to sync PC with PPC. Do the PC need a Bluetooth set to connect with PPC? If like that I think my PC can not apply for..I see only Laptop have Bluetooth set included inside..what a pity!

Anyway thanks for your share!

Best Regard!
[HD2 General] dadaniel:
When I try to change my Caller-ID setting for outgoing calls, I get this error message (translated from german):

"Warning: Can not change phone's band frequency. Please try again later"

If I set the band frequency manually to GSM and then try again it works, but when I try to change for example the "knocking" setting I also get the above error.

Any ideas?
[Touch HD General] veehexx:
im using stock orange ROM, and i listen to net radio a fair bit at work.

the other day, i had a scenario where i'd of liked to stream net radio via wifi on my HD.

problem is, when using my HD, i always hit the power button (so screen goes off/device locked), but this disables the the wifi connection, and would obviously drop the free wifi connection, and swap to the chargable GSM network.

i'd prefer the wifi to only be active with that certain program running, so if i do forget to turn it off when i exit media player, it wont reduce battery life needlessly.

so, how does one keep wifi enabled&connected, with a specific program running (media player), and lock the device from accidental presses while in a pocket?

I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR PHONE

Infos

Why Should I root my phone?

Read Here

What can I do with recovery?

With recovery you can principally flash cooked roms, but also other things like make nandroid backups (Internal memory backups), partition your sdcard, fix problems etc...

If you want root there are 2 methods:

First Method

Is very simple, just download and install InstantRoot.apk (attached)

To install this from sdcard you need a file explorer like ASTRO

After the install a notify that says root access gained should appear, if not try second method

Second Method

This will install also recovery

1. Enable Debug USB from Settings->Applications

2. Download flashrec and install it with file manager like ASTRO

3. Download Amon_RA's recovery and put it in your sdcard

4. Run flashrec and tap Backup Recovery

5. Tap in the textbox and write this path:

/sdcard/recovery-RA-hero-vx.x.x.img

At moment of writing last version is 1.5.2, so the path should be

/sdcard/recovery-RA-hero-v1.5.2.img

6. Tap Download then flash recoery

7. If you get an error retry from step 3, else continue

8. Turn off your phone and reboot it keeping pressed Home button, recovery should start

9. Connect your phone via usb

10. Download Android SDK and extract all in the same folder

11. Download this and extract it in your sdk/tools folder

12. Open cmd (if you are on windows, if you are on a mac or on linux open terminal) and move to sdk/tools folder using this command

cd path

13. Give this commands in order

On windows:

adb shell mount /system
adb push su /system/bin/
adb shell chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
adb push Superuser.apk /system/app/
adb shell umount /system
adb shell reboot

On linux/mac

./adb shell mount /system
./adb push su /system/bin/
./adb shell chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
./adb push Superuser.apk /system/app/
./adb shell umount /system
./adb shell reboot

14. Now you have root access on your phone :D

If you want recovery:

Just follow root's second method to the step 7

Flashing Custom roms using recovery:

Custom roms are in Zip format, to flash it is really easy once you have recovery.

Once downloaded a rom put it in your sdcard root, then reboot into recovery (Keep home button pressed while turning on your phone)

Now make a wipe going to Wipe->Wipe data, then come back to main menu and go to Flash zip from sd card, select your zip and you're done :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] culturelol:
Thanks for the guide :-) How does Nandroid backup fit into this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] incomer:
maybe you need to tell how to downgrade(or a link to a guide :))

nice guide, only i have already rooted my phone(2 months ago or something xD)

@Culturelol

nandroid backup is recommeded when you install a new rom, so you can always back to your original/past rom
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] culturelol:
So i root with this guide, then nandroid and then i can flash the new rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] culturelol:
One more small question :-) Is there anything special i should know about flashing the radio?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
Yep

No, only that you can't flash a GSM radio on a CDMA phone and back, if you do this you'll brick your phone
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] culturelol:
Is that done the same way? Boot to recovery and then flash the radio? And is this done before or after wipe / install of the new rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
You can install radio whenever you want, it's flashed in another nand partition
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] krueck83:
nice rom - but the Home button doesnt work - is that normal?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
Wrong discussion...

If you refer to CKDroid you need to flash googlebits to get home button working...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] culturelol:
But it is flashed through the recovery screen?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
Yes, it is
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] krueck83:
Thank you - it works. :-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Rui-Cruz:
Thanks for the instructions.

1-Do you need to follow step 8-12 to get root and flash rom`s or is the android sdk and superuser only if you want to develope yourself?

2- If ypu do this and after want back to stock rom . As far as i`ve read it`s as easy as just flashing from HTC website and you`re back ? Won`t recovery still be left on your phone?

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
1. Steps from 8 to 12 are only to get root access on stock rom, if you want to change rom you don't need to make those steps

2. To get back to stock rom just flash official update, as far as i know recovery will be deleted
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] alfie196:
Thanks

Thanks for the guide.

Was being anal and following the guide to the letter (not wanting a brick!) and it just rebooted to stock recovery

4. Run flashrec and tap Backup Recovery
5. Tap in the textbox and write this path: /sdcard/recovery-RA-hero-v1.5.2.img
6. If you get an error retry from step 3, else continue

Should we be tapping the download button once we entered the img location?

Ne0
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
Yes, sorry it's my fault, correcting...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sailingjez:
Sorry silly question

Please could someone tell me, if using the first method the InstantRoot.apk. Will this wipe the current ROM/data/apps etc from the phone or will it just enable Root privilages and leave everything else the same?

Many thanks

Jeremy
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hatski:
It just roots your phone and leaves everything in tact, just did it now.

The guide is not clear on how to flash the rom though. Because it says "If you want recovery" I don't want recovery I just want to flash. I have root now what's next? In simple steps, no recovery required just want CKDroid.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
You need recovery to flash roms, it's written on the start of the first post
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] air-:
help pleasee

everytime i run flashrec (any version) i get the error "Backup Failed: could not run command"......i am running an unlocked telus hero the phone type is EBI1/32a.....is there another way to do this or do i need to change something in how im doing it...i have run flash rec 1.1.3 and 1.1.2 :mad::mad:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] digunchang:
Hi,

if i just want to root my HTC HERO then I only do the step 1-6, is right?

anyway whats actually the different between the 1st and 2nd method.

thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Exit93:
With first method you get only su binary (root) without root permissions app

Root permissions manages apps that can use root rights like windows vista's user account control

If you want to follow second method you have to follow all steps to get root

By the way this will install recovery too
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] cursordroid:
This method won't work on a Telus Hero. You'll need to use the goldcard method to downgrade to an older HTC WWE RUU.

What about downgrading,

when I root my phone am I also downgrading it's kernel ?

I need to downgrade since mine is 2.6.27 (right?)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] btdag:
The kernel is controlled by the ROM usually, though you can flash a separate kernel with a custom rom, it is not something you need to bother with for the most part. You shouldn't need to bother with the kernel when installing root :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] m4co:
You mean I can start directly with your guide, don't need an extra step to downgrade the kernel ?

Thanks for the quick reply, I wanted to do this today. Can't wait (and it's Sunday :P) :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] btdag:
My guide is designed to work without any extra steps. It is designed to cover as many different people and situations as possible. It really depends on whether you want root or whether you want a custom rom installed? If you just want root access with your current rom I believe this guide is for you but if you want a complete custom rom then my guide can help :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] m4co:
Sorry I'm new to this so I'm just trying to understand

I'm confused enough with so many terms that I had to learn in the past few hours

I want to flash my HERO with a custom rom, i chose VillainROM 5.4

To achieve that, this is what I understood that I need to do

- downgrade the kernel

- root the HERO

- flash

So, correct if I'm wrong.

Downgrading the kernel is not necessary and all I have to do is root the HERO (your guide) and flash it ?

EDIT: Sorry for the confusion, I think I got it now.

This guide is not what I'm looking for ( I think ).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] btdag:
O by kernel you're talking about the firmware/software version. The kernel is slightly different. The kernel is basically the version of linux which loads the android operating system.

If depends on which version you are on, but my guide will take you through:

1. Attempt to install recovery image

2. If fails, downgrade the rom (firmware/software) using a goldcard

3. Try again to get recovery image installed

4. Use recovery image to install custom rom

The phrase "rooting" the hero has been completely distorted by many of the guides out there (not this one), I have attempted to explain it better in my FaQ but don't worry - most new users make this error. Root only enables root (administrator) access. By itself it really doesn't do much, apart from enable a few extra programs in the market. However, 99.9% of custom rom's have root enabled which allows for greater functionality they also enable other features too (i.e. based upon v2.1 of android os).

Hope this clears things up.

Yeah great, visual kitchens are nice but I've learned everything by hand without a visual kitchen and I still do.

I always followed Bepe and Mamaich because they created most of the tools we are using today in our kitchen.

Offcourse there are many more people but they are my big examples. :D

An example to dump a rom by hand, the tools you find in most visual kitchens today:

Open a CMD window in the directory with this tools and your Ruu_signed.nbh and type te following commands:

nbhextract ruu_signed.nbh [ENTER]

nbsplit -kaiser os.nb [ENTER]

imgfsfromnb os.nb.payload imgfs.bin [ENTER]

imgfstodump imgfs.bin [ENTER]

Dump created....

Now drag the dump folder on Bepe's packagebuider and your packages are created.

There's so much to read about it, here's a old thread from Mamaich,

offcourse the tools are much more improved today thanks to these great guys. :)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=249836

I show you this and you probably know to but it's good to know these tools if you start cooking I think.

That's quite simple,

in /Notification_Enhancement_3_5_20113127_00 <DIR>

you find /files <DIR>

in here /NTFConfig.dll <DIR>, now recmod this /NTFConfig.dll<DIR> folder

after recmod /NTFConfig.dll<DIR> you will find the NTFConfig.dll file in the /NTFConfig.dll<DIR> folder

now move this NTFConfig.dll file out of the /NTFConfig.dll <DIR>

now delete /NTFConfig.dll <DIR> and replace the NTFConfig.dll file back in /files folder

that's all

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] huggy_72:
recmod means "transform" a module on a .dll (flaten),

or rather the original file is a. dll which is transformed into modules, which have the advantage of better memory management (at least think so), but in this case, it's necessary in a reverse form. dll (don't ask me why, I don't know :(, little bee someone more experienced is explained).

Materially, click on the button at the bottom left of the EVK, " FROM MODULE TO FILE",

and surfs the EXT (or if you move first as advised on the deck or wherever you want ).... address posted before, select the folder NTFConfig.dll, and that's it;) put only the file .dll on manila membership package(Notification_Enanchement)

I replaced all lang using those of 1.66, both for EXT, which for SYS and OEM,

boot.rgu amended, initilflashfile (replaced OEM_Lang everything, but everything that needed to be integrated in the. dat) then I replaced MSXIPKernel, and SYS, renamed all the 21889th in 21892nd folder, and in fact gave me no errors, but the error began with implantxip xip.bin not found: (

I had tried first to compile and use Xipporterex & Rom, which I'm not very familiar, to increase the PP, and give the name and date the rom, I then had to navigate manually to show him the os.nb.payload, but I do not know if it was correct. Rather let us say that having read as much as possible, the xip.bin (and how to patch) and how to do to update a build I did not understand anything!

I am attaching also build_log is perhaps more useful to my poor English!
