hey darchstar,

is this fix for the landscape homescren? Can you figure how to get the Nexu LW to work :)

Also, for some reason my Power Control Widget does not refresh when you tap on one of the fuctions, e.i GPS, Sync or brighness. Is that one of the listed issues. I am also getting the GPS icon on the top bar all the time. Is that something normal
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
@samrozzi, I think i found a lead for fixing bluetooth.

@kykisly, i'm gunna post an update with the landscape launcher with fixed home icons in a bit, lwp don't work as of this moment, but i'm sure they will. The power control widget should not be giving you any problems

Update on bluetooth: it seems that it does work, but there's some services issue, can't be too hard to fix, right?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david_ag:
pretty nifty and GREAT button called SEARCH, will give you great results when searching for things like

"market problems"

Go try it, you will be amazed.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kykiskly:
Those are great news with the Bt, :), about the power widget my bad, it is working, i guess I needed to reboot my phone. The only thing is with the GPS, my Maps are not picking up my location
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 27s:
There is a GPS.Conf that someone in the 2.1 thread posted. I think it is page 107. I am with Toast, but that fixed my GPS issues in ASOP 1.6 and Sense2.1. Follow the directions in the post.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jschramm:
I had problems with push gmail in the previous 2.x rom I tried. Any problems with that here?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] samrozzi:
ah thankyou about the BT, id LOVE to have that working, your the first dev to even reply to the hope of having bluetooth on a 1.6+ build.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
gps picks my location with accuracy of a 6 meter radius, don't know what seems to be the problem with you. I added the gps.conf to the rom too so it shouldnt be a matter of manually adding files.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jayjay7411:
Awesome. Just woke up and saw you fixed the home screen with five screens iS that rom ready for download? ? This is the best btw
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
No, it's not up for download, sorry. i want to work out some other kinks before pushing out an update. i edited the first post with a link to the home icon fix btw
[Hero CDMA Android Development] coldfire2122:
IDK if anyone explained this but Sprint uses an SMS/MMS message to tell its visual voicemail app that a voice mail is waiting. The app hides the message from you. Because you do not have the visual voicemail app you are seeing the weird message. Only way to get around it is to not use Sprint's Voicemail and use Google's.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kykiskly:
I manually push it and now it is working, odd right :) either way, will be waiting for your update hopefully today.

is this update a full signed ROM or just a addon to existing? Just asking so I know if i should hold adding all my custom settings, emails and stuff like that.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
It probably would be more efficient to just do addons, but no, i'm just releasing full ROMs. you don't need to worry about wiping though, so go ahead and make your custom settings

EDit: actually you do need to worry about wiping if you're coming from another ROM
[Hero CDMA Android Development] samrozzi:
all i need is the home icons to work and bluetooth, camera can come last lol

and i REALLLLY like how its bare, like COMPLETELY BARE and NO SENSE. Im hoping itll stay like that, or if you add sense theirs still an option to keep it stock like it is now.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Leukay:
There's always that option haha
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cyclonebee:
Hey, darchstar, just want to show my thanks for this awesome ROM. Once the home screen icon fix is put out I will probably use this as a daily ROM. Also, its really great to see you working hard to maintain it even through the late hours last night and into today, fixing little things here and there, it really means alot! Thanks again!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kykiskly:
Nah man, I am sticking with this forever, i never changed ROM since the first one you release back in Dec 2k9 :)

I dont care bout the Camera, as long as we get back Bt, Id be happy :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lugose:
It's funny, but the reason I want the camera is for the stuff like barcode reader, google goggles, and stuff like that. The home screen stuff can wait as there are workarounds out there like Launcher+.

Though whatever is fixed is cool too, thanks for the work on a great rom.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jayjay7411:
Aw man i say puah out the new rom with icon fix for the noobs that dont understand push mount and stuff lol ill be here waitong paitently for ur update :-)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
haha, ok. also, would you guys rather stick with the original launcher, or would you want a nexus themed one? i'll post a screenshot:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bronxknight28:
lol dude you coulda always just used the normal home launcher, sense actually cant be added seeing that it's not a 2.1 rom just AOSP
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kykiskly:
Stick with the Nexus one :) --- :( so no Nexus Live W.. :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mcfarlan:
Launcher

I prefer the Nexus themed one...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] samrozzi:
id say original UNLESS the nexus launcher had the dots on the side indicating which screen, but if its just the square pattern then id slightly prefer the reg one.

maybe make the nexus one an addon to flash separately?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] crunchybutternut:
ditto for nexus
[Hero CDMA Android Development] illogic6:
Yeah, I understand that. It wasn't a SMS message I was getting.

It was just a "new voicemail" notification. I wiped and re-flashed and it was still there. I flashed Gumbo 1.5c, wiped and re-flashed this and it was gone. Your guess is as good as mine. :confused:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cyclonebee:
So if we get the Nexus One launcher we lose the ability to use Live wallpaper? I love Live wallpaper...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jayjay7411:
Nexus for sure omg i cant wait for update quot teasing lol your the best darch
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
Ok, so i decided to just make the Nexus launcher an addon. The regular one will be in the full ROM. It'll be online in like an hour
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
Does apps2sd work in this rom?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jayjay7411:
Ok cool question when you say addon will it be a flash zip addon? Like in recovrry mode
[Hero CDMA Android Development] samrozzi:
thanks, really like all the work thats being done to this rom and all SOOOO fast.

so do the icons on desktop work? or only from launcher still? and i know i JUST asked but anyone take a crack at BT?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
I'm releasing an update with the fixed launcher. And i'm still looking into bluetooth.

@jayjay, it will be an update.zip, the nexus launcher
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cyclonebee:
so when you swipe left with the sound thing on the lockscreen, it turns vibrating off too? I don't really like that, but I would guess that's something that can't be changed.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
go into settings > sound and display settings and turn on phone vibrate
[Hero CDMA Android Development] samrozzi:
ok thanks, because BT is the only thing preventing me from making this my daily, I rather have BT than working icons lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
Edited first post :D.

Bluetooth still doesn't work yet, but icons do.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] samrozzi:
ok so bt all i need, i would love camera for things like goggles and shopsavvy but i work for sprint and i use my bluetooth daily.

well heading off to work to sell more heroes (and moments if I have to lol)

hopefully when I come home even more greatness will come around with this rom, bt :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ibegary:
Any luck on MMS?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pseudoremora:
I tried installing this ROM -- any reason why I'd be getting a bootloop?

This is what I've done:

Currently have Gumb1.5c

1. Downloaded the file

2. Copied to SD Card

3. Rebooted into recovery

4. Wiped my phone

5. Chose the .zip file - and then flashed

6. It said it was successful, but after I reboot my phone, I just get stuck in bootloop?

Any ideas?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Sounds right. What all did you wipe?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] illogic6:
That damned voicemail notification just came back like 5 mins ago. Is there a certain file I can remove to clear this? It isn't giving me an option to clear it in the notification shade. Am I getting someone else's voicemail notifications???

EDIT: It's telling me to dial *86 to hear the messages. From what Google is showing me, it seems that's what Verizon users use to dial their voicemail box. I'm a Sprint customer! What gives?

EDIT II: I looked at the "Voicemail Settings" menu and I show my Google Voice info. I checked Google Voice and I had nothing new. Called my Sprint Voicemail... nothing. I can't be the only one seeing this.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Is_907:
It takes a good 2-7 minutes the first time you boot this ROM. Just FYI.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
He said boot loop, so unless he is terming it wrong, he is saying that it is booting over and over.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Is_907:
My bad.

If it's looping I'd try wipe and flash again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lilgringojr:
sprint tv issues

So far im liking the new rom..other than the issue of not having the home butttons working which I'll.try to push later.

Im also having issues With sprinttv

I downloaded da sprint apk with the files and installed it but it will not work..errors about it only being available to sprint customers only is this something you can fix or is it issues with this rom being 2.0.1 and not 1.5 which was stock..I've had many other roms running it with no issues...props on the rom tho
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Im coming from the same ROM as you and this is my first time flashing this rom. Ill update you if I get the boot loop as well.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] illogic6:
$10 says your SprintTV issue is related to my voicemail issue. It's almost like our carrier-specific settings aren't quite right.

I don't understand how I went seven hours without this thing and all of a sudden it popped up. It wasn't after a reboot or anything like that. I really thought I had a message for a moment there.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] crunchybutternut:
Should have the date in the Thread title, so people know when the ROM (or first post) was last updated.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
You arent. I called it and got "Virgin Mobile Helios VM". I went in to VM settings and changed my VM number to my Phone Number and rebooted. Still says I have a VM.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
done and done!

sorry i didn't see your post earlier, its just this rom has been getting so much unexpected traffic.umm, i just tried putting sprint tv on and i didn't get an error about not being a sprint customer, though it didn't work for me. Does sprint tv work on the sense 2.1 rom?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
Is the nexus zip supposed to be that small(352KB)? I flashed it and it never got to the home screen. Stayed on the nexus boot screen.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
go into the dialer and call press the voicemail button, it should direct you to your sprint voicemail
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
yes it is the right size. i flashed it and got the nexus launcher, so should you.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coldheat1906:
I'm coming from the same ROM and everything is working fine, here are my steps:

1.) Downloaded the file

2. Copied to SD Card

3. Rebooted into recovery

4.) Choose the zip file - and then flashed

5. Once it said successful then I Wiped my phone

6. Everything comes up and working fine. (Yes I have not installed the patch for the launcher screen)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
You don't need the patch anymore, just flash the zip i just uploaded
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coldheat1906:
Cool thanks.... I'l just re-flash again. This is a really great rom, can't wait till you get the camera working.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kykiskly:
hey darchstar,

Was a new update posted? Where?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Thanks but that isnt just the issue. We cannot clear the New VM Icon. It says we have a new VM but there is no new VM in my box. Its empty. Im loving this damn rom though. Looks great and runs awesome.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coldheat1906:
First post.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coldheat1906:
Quick question......

Why is the file size getting smaller? Your first file was 73mb, now your new upload is 69mb.

Just curious
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
I can't seem to replicate your problem with voicemail... hmm, have you recently gotten a voicemail before flashing the rom?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrcharlesiv:
Darch, you're doing a ****ing killer job on this. Thanks for putting this together for us!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
Because I've been cleaning it up. I could probably get it to around 58ish if i removes some uneeded stuff like superuser or the apps in /data/app/ , etc
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
No. I keep it clean. It was there as soon as the phone booted for the first time. Ill try a wipe and reflash.

EDIT: Oh and does this have APPS2SD?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrcharlesiv:
Before I go and try to flash some themes on top of this... are any other ROM themes compatible with this? I believe I read somewhere some some of the Cyanogen ROMS will work on our phone... cyan 4.2.8 I believe. Again, you're doing great, Darch. Thanks!

EDIT: The DarkStar theme would be sweet!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chuckhriczko:
For the record superuser is definitely needed. Security in case a malicious apparently wants root access.

On a side note‚ is the headset speaker working? I got two calls today where I could not hear the other person.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
Not as of now, but i'll add it in later

I haven't tested it, but i'm fairly certain they wouldnt work

They should work. I've seen people have this issue with the 2.0.1 rom dchadwick released, but i haven't been able to replicate it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kykiskly:
Hey Darch,

If you remove the Superuser.apk, can we still manage to do all of those crazy things without the User Permission?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
yup, you should be able to. But as chuck said, its a safety net to have on.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrcharlesiv:
Sorry for the double post but will this work: http://alldroid.org/viewtopic.php?f=315&t=1843&start=0.

I just really don't want to **** up my phone! :cool:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Ok, so i wiped and reflashed. The 1 new vm is still coming up. I wonder if it has something to do with the options I pick on first boot. First thing is sign into google services, I sign in with my gmail username and password. Then it asks if i want to use google Location services, I leave both checkmarks checked. Then it asks if I want to back up my info to google account, I leave check marked. Im gonna Reflash and skip all that stuff and see what happens.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
Damn!! That looks sick! i'll test it out for you
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
I left those settings checked too, so thats not the problem
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kykiskly:
Missing Maps

is it just me or after applying myeclair6 my "Maps" is not there.

Error code : Application is not installed on the phone.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Weird. It doesnt affect anything but its annoying to look at cause it always appears as though i have a voice message that has been unread. Ill do some more testing.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
Okay got it working now. Had to flash your newest core zip.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrcharlesiv:
Hell yeah. Thanks bro!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
It's there, I made sure of it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kykiskly:
Keyboard

Hey darchstar

Do you think you can include the Swype Keyboard.

I am using the BETA one and this **** is sick. it is not lagging for me. :)

If you want, i can send you a link to the apk.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kykiskly:
Trust me, I believe you. I see it under my installed apps, but tapping on it from launcher or homescreen wont work. Weird right ? :\
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Ok so I thought maybe there was something on my sd card that was causing the 1 new vm icon to show up so i removed it and rebooted. Didnt go away.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
hmm, how about you try uninstalling it and reinstalling it from market?

and about swype, sure i'll put that into my next build. doesn't make that much a difference
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
This is so weird. I tried reflashing it like 10 times trying to replicate your problem, but have not been able to. can you clear any other notifications??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercado79:
same thing is happening to me too. i had already pushed the home screen icon fix and tweaked other settings so, rather than installing the latest ROM version that was posted, i only installed the nexus launcher zip. it checks out (verified), but never boots up. it just sits on the nexus boot animation. i've let it run for 10 minutes, pulled the battery, and tried again. same problem.

does the nexus launcher zip require that we flash the latest ROM (v6)?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
no it doesn't. All the nexus launcher zip does is replace the launcher.apk in /system/app.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coldheat1906:
Facebook sync question

Is there a way to sync my Facebook contacts up with this ROM? I usually pull all of my contact pics from my Facebook contacts but I don't see an option for that now.......

Thanks for the help in advance.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
I had flash to lastest zip to get the nexus one launcher to work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
I've heard facebook sync works for that
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Yep, I can clear all new notifications but not this one in particular.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kykiskly:
Funny, lol, i went to the market, try uninstalling Maps, both the open and uninstall are gray out lol. then I tried doing it from the Settings>applications>Manage applications, not even there :eek:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
Oh ya, now i remember, ya, you would need to flash the latest rom because i edited the build prop to get the nexus launcher to work
[Hero CDMA Android Development] illogic6:
All other notifications clear normally. There has to be some kind of carrier-specific setting somewhere that is causing this.

Like I said... I wiped, went back to a 1.5 rom, wiped, and reflashed and didn't have the icon for approx 7 hours.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
that is very odd. Try uninstalling it from adb

adb shell rm /data/app/Maps.apk

then try installing it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ibegary:
I can confirm this in my logcat as well.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercado79:
alright... that's easy enough. can you tell me if i update using the latest ROM and want to keep my settings (coming from v5), do i need to do a wipe or will flashing over it be fine?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
ya, i didn't update the boot.img yet with the fix. its not much of an issue if you aren't debugging, but its annoying if you are
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Ok so I went into vm settings and applied my phone number with area code and can access my vm. Icon still wont go away and here comes the weird part. I called my phone from another location and got my vm, left a vm, and then it came in on my phone as a text message saying

"///ANDROID:********:has sent you a Sprint Voice Message. Call 408-970-0000 to listen. MMSN,c060114f,1ce6,V6a1iIDgG+5//CM

I called the 408 number and it asks if im on a text vm recipient headset and i said yes. It hung up
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrcharlesiv:
Darch, with that theme would I follow the instructions on that site I linked or would we have to do something different b/c of different phones?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
no you don't need to wipe.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
no, i wouldn't bother with it until i make an update.zip of it if i can get it to work, or if someone else ports it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrcharlesiv:
Oh alright. I'm glad I asked first then! It said for 2.0.1 so I figured it'd work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Well I love this ROM but gonna have to go back to my old set up due to the VM issues. Looking really good though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ibegary:
Sorry to bother you again! I don't have a sprint hero, I have one from Bluegrass Cellular. I updated my mmsc and information in the /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db and rebooted but it doesn't seem to affect anything.

Any other files that i'm missing or need to edit? I know, I know.. i'm a pain in the ass :)

I'm loving this ROM though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kykiskly:
Sorry, it didnt work either,

Can you send me the Maps.apk?

Question for you, now that made some progress with this new ROM, is there anyway to put some effort into the trackball light? I see that it works but lighting is not....

You never answered about the swype integration:rolleyes:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
ahh man. sorry about the vm issue. If i could replicate the problem im sure i could be better help, but i just can't.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
@kykiskly

also, did you do adb remount before doing the command i posted?

The trackball light. hmm. it's not that big of an issue, but i'll see what i can do.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrcharlesiv:
I have a request that I think people would be in to... Could someone port over Sericson's Lockscreen? That'd be sweet!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
Unzip the rom on your computer and push the apk to your phone. It will be in /system/app.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
In my latest rom i put it in /data/app so i updating it would be much easier
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
How do i get to this?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Im at work right now so I cant do anything major. Ill try flashing back to stock and then flashing this and see what happens.

Quick question. When you call your VM does it take to your regular vm box and are you getting all of your VM just fine? Thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
thats the clock app. just go into launcher and tap clock
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
ya, it takes me to my regular vm box. and yes i do get them just fine.np
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kykiskly:
Yeah. See the screenshot
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Are you on a Sprint Hero?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
have you tried reflashing with NO wipe

@kbizzle yes i am on a sprint hero *looks at first post screenshots* lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Oh lol. Ill try without wiping.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
the wiping part was meant for kykiskly
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kykiskly:
I did that already, not worries man :) I know you must be cursing at us now with all these little tweaks :)

I will see if I can get the Maps.apk and push it to the phone :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Oh. Lol. Well im trying anyway.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
here you go
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kykiskly:
This worked :) Many thanks :)
