MMS Working on another 2.1 ROM?

There seems to have been some movement on MMS working on the Fresh 2.1, does anyone know if that is applicable to this rom? I tried following the instructions on this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5792666&postcount=1701, but could get nowhere with it. (I'm at work, so I there is only so much troubleshooting I can do.)

EDIT: @Tipharet - Great minds think alike :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
mms works in this rom, it's just that for some reason it's not downloading, seems to be a problem with the length of the xml after i added the correct sprint headers into the mms_config xml and recompile... gahh
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Tipharet:
Just to report, upon reboot I seem to be getting FC's on google voice and facebook. Ive also started to have some excess battery drain.

Battery was killer until today.

Edit: actually issue occurs after unlocking each time.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kykiskly:
I always get FC's on the Voice Dialer app every time I reboot the phone
[Hero CDMA Android Development] catpunt:
Me too, I'm not using the JIT.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PRGUY85:
Will the new Droid release help us in any way with this ROM? I'm not a big fan of Sense UI after this ROM so I'm sticking with stock for now.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
... I think i said this before, voice search doesn't force close, if you read the error message correctly. it just says its not functioning properly, although it really is functioning properly, and is asking you IF you want to force close it, which you don't need to. it's just something weird that may be due to the new launcher2.apk that i added to the rom. if you set the regular cyanogenmod launcher as your default you most likely wont see those messages again, though you don't need to switch if you don't want to

In which ways were you envisioning that the new droid release will help us?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PRGUY85:
I was referring to the new Droid Eris release but I'm sure you know what I meant. Well, considering the Droid Eris and Hero are suppose to be close relatives, perhaps get better performance by having that ROM available. My wish (like others) was a way to get camera working but I see its not as easy as one would think.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
Oh sorry, i really thought you meant droid like the actual 480x854 res droid. Well, I looked into last night and there wasn't much that i saw that would be of any benefit to our cause. sorry
[Hero CDMA Android Development] khaag27:
what home should be used? N1 or home?? And how do I change it after its set?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] setix:
have to say, i tried fresh's new rom, but i had to come back to yours, aosp ftw!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] setix:
go to settings> manage apps> and choose home, then clear defaults, and press home button, it will allow you to choose launcher.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
Its arbitrary which home you use. Use the one you like most. you can change it after you set it as a default by going into settings>applications>manage applications>Launcher (or Home depending on which one you setted as default)> clear defaults. after which you can just press home and choose which one to use again
[Hero CDMA Android Development] khaag27:
I am having soo much lag with this rom. When I go to set a wallpaper my screen turns different colors and gets all boxy so I had to do a battery pull 2xs
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
First boot? Likely thatd happen because you're phone is working like a horse with dalvik dexing all your apps and google sync syncing. that in turns causes your cpu to peg. try again after a reboot and tell me if your problems persist. If not, i have a non 3d gallery app right here as a last resort
[Hero CDMA Android Development] RamboDroid:
Sorry after taking a step back and reading what i wrote i realized how i came across....sorry. In the moments before writing that i had read like 8 pages and seen a lot of the same questions asked and answered. And it was at that same time that i was looking for some specific information about the new v4 release so i got a little frustrated reading repetitive post. I was out of line writing that in a moment of frustration. I was venting and did not mean to direct it to anyone individual at all.

the short i should not have written a post while i was frustrated, and was defiantly not directing my thoughts to any one individual. Please Forgive!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Leukay:
You people that want the Nexus live wallpaper, If you search the market for live wallpapers, you will find one that is called NexusMod. This is the Nexus live wallpaper, but has different color scheme's and other options. And it works with this version of OpenGL. Try it out!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] acm2117:
darchstar mad props man this rom is the best rom out right now! i cant wait till a dev gets the cam working! one request though... is it possible to get flash in with this rom?

again... best heroc rom out. i like aosp better than sense now that im used to it. ive been running darchdroid for two days now. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
until flash 10.1 is officially released, no. sorry

2.1 Leaked Question

So 2.1 was leaked for the Eris, and it is useless for us? Is there anything we can grab from that end. I know it didn't come with the expected Kernel, but what about BT, or MMS?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
Mms works as i posted before, its just not getting access to the sprint site for downloading mms now.

BT, hmm, maybe it could help us out... forgot about that. lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kykiskly:
:), Well remember last night I sent you the logcat from my phone, which is not sending pics out, with same error code "Cannot download picture from the server, please try again later"

Perhaps if not to difficult, you can overlook at that :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
I did look at it and it seems when you were sending your message, that it was instead trying to download a message. Don't know how thats possible. Have you tried sending an mms to yourself to test if it'd work?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] RVDigital:
I see most (haven't looked for all yet) of my protected Apps in the Downloads section of the Marketplace.

BTW, FIRST POST! :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Some of your protected apps may not show because they arent compatible with 2.0.1.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] RVDigital:
This worked the first time. PERFECT!

The only thing I would mention is I did not need to Mount on the first step. From within the phone Console (not recovery) I simply refreshed (adb devices) to verify the phone was visible and proceeded on the second step.

Additionally, I manually copied the setprop file I unzipped from the MyEclair7 build (Cyanogen-like 2.0.1 ROM) into my C:\android-sdk-windows\tools folder before starting this process.

THANK YOU darchstar for all of your hard work!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PRGUY85:
Guess Twicca is one of those apps.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Did you search the market to see if it comes up?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PRGUY85:
Wait, I did it on 2.0.1 sorry. In that ROM Twicca doesn't show up, only a Twicca plug-in.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Yeah, thats a good sign it isnt compatible. If you go back to a 1.5 rom, that app will show back up in your downloads section.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PRGUY85:
Nah I think its a 1.6-2.0 app only. Don't want to stray from main topic. Thanks though.

And when is this getting Toast's kernel?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kmartburrito:
Yep, the cold hard truth I found out last night is that while 2.1 has "Exchange Support" built in, it does NOT have support for calendar. You'll have to do one of three things in order to get it:

1) Run a ROM with Sense UI or Moto Blur(i.e. not AOSP)

2) Install a third party Exchange app, like Touchdown (20 bucks)

3) Install Google Calendar Sync on your work laptop, which will sync all of your exchange appointments into your gmail account every X minutes. (absolutely free, and seems to work well so far)

Here's the link to that (choose the Windows/Mac/Linux option):

http://www.google.com/sync/index.html

Don't choose android, because that's not what we're trying to do here.

Happy Calendaring!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Oh damn, I just realized this switched over to 2.1. Lol. Ill have to try again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] myth_mn:
gmail

Gmail doesn't push for me, I have to refresh in order to get mail. Anyone else having this issue?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] durhamite:
Ok, running into a little issue with this. I pulled setprop from MyEclair7 and put it in the tools folder. Adb devices shows my phone. I do the push command and get a message that says Failed to copy setprop to /system/bin/setprop, read only file system

EDIT: Nevermind... I was able to push the file and now WIFI works perfectly!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tyrnight:
this has ALWAYS been an issue on 2.1

and Im not sure how to fix this
[Hero CDMA Android Development] samrozzi:
so any new on BT?

I know some people are getting it to work while some arent. Not sure whats causing it. but would really bt
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lugose:
My gmail is pushing just fine, not sure what I did different, but it works here as well as it did it the 2.01 rom.

BTW, anyone else get an email from google welcoming you to android on the nexus one?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gqukyo:
Yeh it worked on the fresh 2.1 rom. I did buy Touchdown when I first got the Hero but it doesn't integrate with the main contacts which is annoying. I did use Calendar Sync as well as GOsync to sync my calendars... what a pain but I'll deal with it until the official one comes out with Sense... I'm actually liking the phone with the Sense ui... hahaha
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Agimax:
Is VVM in 2.1?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
No. Use google voice if u you want visual voicemail in 2.1. Its easy to setup and works a bit better.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mario23:
This is what I want to do as well...just still haven't gotten an invite back :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kmartburrito:
Ya, both push Gmail and Exchange mail are working fine for me on this ROM.

One thing I'm noticing though, is that when I have notifications, my Green LED is lighting up and staying solid. Anyone else see this? Is this by design?

Seems like it would drain some battery, even though I understand LED's are low discharge.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kykiskly:
Did that just now with same results. Actually this time, the error code didn't prompt, but Pic wont go out.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] FivewaysNowadays:
fast scrolling in the contacts shows random letters instead of what letter youre actually on. didnt' wanna scroll through 100 pages to see if anyone else commented on it, just curious if there was just a way to hide it until its working?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tmidle8575:
Darch,

Loving this. Any way to get the latest flash running like on the "other" ROM? I prefer this one by far, but was able to go to hulu on that one and not on this one.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] XAnimal:
Still having issues getting a2sd working flash the old kernel n it locks up on boot
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
Yea, go back one page and you'll find your answer :D

could you please attach a logcat, because i have a hunch as to what you're problem may be. attach the logcat.txt created by the command "adb logcat -d > logcat.txt"
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Is_907:
@darchstar: I'm still really loving the newest build. It's smooth and the new dialer is sweet!

The only issue I have is the contacts bug. I know you said it's not a big deal or that people are being nit-picky but, seriously, I have a lot of phone numbers in my contacts and having most of them stored under the header of "B" makes it TOUGH to scroll through them. (Also, it goes like this: B a D c a d. Weird. Most are under the first a section.)

Is there a way I can fix this or help you find a fix for it? I'd be glad to help debug or test possible solutions.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tmidle8575:
D'OH! ::Palm to foreheard::

Must've missed that.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aauussttiinn88:
Im pretty sure you can load the contacts apk from his older build cant you?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Is_907:
Does anyone have a copy of the older build for me to download? heh

I didn't download any of the previous builds and can only find a mirror for the first build.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gomorrah:
Here you go. Its the Contact.apk from the last build before this. It'll fix your filing issue, but it doesn't have the new dialer.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Is_907:
Awesome! Thank you.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rjj1976:
darch, Really liking this Rom, great job. Enjoying being able to use Google Navigation, I added the new Google Gesture Search, overall just works great. You need to add a donation button so we can contribute for your hard work. Thanks again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Patb8man:
It doesnt show up in the applications list...I tried that before I asked...Thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Tipharet:
Yeah same thing for me, I had to reflash.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Patb8man:
cool thanks Im glad Im not the only one who coudlnt find it...its crazy though...I activated Jit and it was horrid...I did my reboots it was still bad...I stopped using task panel and its a lot better...my whole system runs better just like Watzone 69 said...thank you...NO MORE TASK KILLERS.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] catpunt:
gotta say, this is my favorite rom evar. it's super fast after turning up animation and transition speed, and i'm not even using jit. everything seems to work perfectly though i generally don't use the camera or mms much. much kudos!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gomorrah:
Next time you need to find an app and go to Manage Applications press the Menu button. Then select Filter and choose All. Then everything will show up, including the Launcher.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] icm714:
wow first time i have seen this thread on page 2
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Avalaunchmods:
all sensy goodness loll. darch needs to come back and get .29 kernel workin i know he can :D:D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrchu001:
where has darch been anyway?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] asapelectric:
If hes not on here, probably workin' on something. Maybe he has a life too.:eek: Thanks Darchstar for your contribution of your time, I'm waiting patiently, I think.....:rolleyes:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
ahh yes, i haven't deserted you guys. I've just been busy with my personal life. I have SAT's next week :eek: . ya so along with studying, I've currently been trying to assimilate openeclair code into my source. so thats whats up lately.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrchu001:
oh i hated the SAT's! haha good luck man

also, hows that going?

what is that going to improve?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
haha thanks

I'm hoping it improves the overall quality of the ROM. also, along with including openeclair cod in my source, i may try to do some kernel devving to see what other cool feautures i can add with my rom.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tmidle8575:
Anyone else having trouble with texting? Messages appear to not be sending or receiving properly. Sometimes it says it sent, but they never get it. Other times I don't get the message from them at all. Now some messages I send are just sitting as pending but not sent and the other person isn't getting anything. Not sure if this is a ROM issue or a network issue.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrchu001:
oh that sounds pretty sweet

i am more than willing to beta test :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
ok, once i get it stable enough, sure.

It's not a ROM issue, but i don't think it's an issue with the network either. I've been sending near 40 texts a day with no problems.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrchu001:
i send texts pretty much all day and i have no problem..

and thanks darch! :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] asapelectric:
I'm like you, I'm busy. Just like to better my phone every other day.;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tmidle8575:
This is the first time I've had problems is today. It seems that some are sending and some aren't. Rather arbitrary so far.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] catpunt:
I have had such issues with SMS on sprint in general with the stock rom and other phones on Sprint. Haven't noticed any special difficulties with this rom. (By the way i just spoke this message, awesome! :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PRGUY85:
I think its been reported but just want to add that the Nexus Launcher on latest ROM makes phone a bit sluggish. I may have to revert to stock Launcher. Tried Home++ but don't like it much.

I tried Gumbo's 2.1 ROM, it was great yet I kinda miss the Stock look. So I may revert to this ROM once more.

DARCH

maybe flipz will help out look at this new thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=643034
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tmidle8575:
Might be able to help, but I'm sure flipz would appreciate darch and anyone else holding off on incorporating it until it's released to public.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] icm714:
well of course that would be f'ed up if someone leaked a leak lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Vrekk:
Don't worry now that flipz has a working cam, we will get it to, if worst came to worse, we could just copy over the new kernel and we will have it. But I doubt that flipz wouldn't help us anyway, otherwise, why would he be deving roms?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
lol, Thats great news that we finally have a .29 kernel. Once Flipz/toast releases the Rom and i get permission, i'll definitely include it in this rom. I've also made some other minute changes that overall increases the rom's performance. I also think that with the .29 kernel we could have lwp's running alongside openGL, though i'm not sure.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Avalaunchmods:
looks like they beat you to it ;)

lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
haha, yes, they sure did. though i'm not surprised. they are coding geniuses after all :cool:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] asapelectric:
Darchstar, whatever you do, please don't get rid of me being able to pull up a contact by hardware search button. This is the first ROM I can do that with out of all. That was why I loved the Pre, slide open keyboard, type person first letters in, and there they are. Not to mention other designs I really like about this.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Darkshneider:
Isnt that part of 2.1?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
are you guys talking about quick search? That's been in android since 1.6
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Darkshneider:
Then it is part of 2.1, been there since 1.6. Thnx.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] asapelectric:
I just experimented with a couple of other 2.1's, and uh, apparently not. I love that function.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
hmm ok. Don't worry. I'll leave that feature in this rom no doubt. just to let you know, you can even add more things to the quicksearch by going into settings>search>searchable items, you can add stuff such as music and youtube.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] asapelectric:
Yep. I feel like an idiot, I didn't know about that setting for search! You must have enabled that for us by default somehow. Because I've looked for that feature in every ROM I've tried, (including 2.1's recent in this forum)but didn't think of being able to select it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kenfly:
sorry for the possible noob question, but how do i install the kernel provided without the opengl?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Tipharet:
Darch, do you plan to get up with flipz and toast to get 29? I just really prefer AOSP over Sensui
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
there's your answer :D

EDIT: but i really hope they put up the source to their .29 kernel so i don't have to put up a complete copy of theirs

Can anybody post the car home apk, I seem to have lost mine in my meddling and like an idiot I didn't backup. It would be greatly appreciated thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
it's called CarDock.apk in /system/app . just unzip the rom and you'll find it

Ahh thank you Darch! A gentleman and a scholar.

Does it work with the opengl kernel?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] emerica6541:
i dont think so

im pretty sure you need the kernel without opengl
[Hero CDMA Android Development] digitalscars:
after flashing the other kernel for a2sd, what steps do i have to take to get it to work even after boots?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tmidle8575:
So I sent darch a PM on this, but thought I'd ask everyone. I donated and got the flipz 2.1 with working camera. Is it possible for me to take that kernel and drop it into this ROM? If so, can someone please explain in newb terms? I love this ROM but I want my camera! I know it'll be a matter of time before it's public and this happens anyway, but I'd like it sooner (and I figure this is a good learning experience for me and maybe others interested). I'm not looking for someone to post flipz's kernel since it's not public. I already have the ROM, just prefer DarchDroid much more. Thanks.

Lol, you could just tell even without that being from a g1 forum that in the github repo, you'll see you'll need to build aosp against a dream vendor tree, and not hero, quickly raising the red flag that it won't work on our phones.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
Thanks man. I don't mind at all. Would you mind if i include this in my next release?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Decad3nce:
Flashed it, camera worked. Once you exit the camera though, all hell breaks loose. Nexus launcher won't show.. eh. I'll play with it some more.

EDIT:

Also touch input doesn't work. lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tmidle8575:
After much trying, finally was able to flash it. Touch input didn't work for me from startup. No problems using trackball to move around, but no touch is annoying with a touchscreen. :) I did not have any problems after closing the camera. I'll keep playing also. If someone can get touch working, this will be the best!

Edit: I'm using Home++ so maybe that's why my Nexus launcher isn't affected. Everything else is running normal except for touchscreen.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] emerica6541:
i dont mind go right ahead
