Sorry to hear that... It worked just fine for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sadalius:
ok, got it working. It was a case of not being patient. Thanks for that. Now my next question. my hero is not a sprint hero, its actually an appalachian wireless hero, I think its the same setup as bluegrass cellular, but not sure. Same method to root though. Should I do the radio update that is available? Current radio version on mine is 1.04.01.09.21

Especially curious since someone is reporting a bricked phone.

Thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ElAguila:
I also have strange issues with handcent. I have just removed it and am using the stock messenger for now.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] robchaos:
I did a little searching. I think the radio update is permanent. Is it backwards compatible if I have to restore to 1.5?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sirchuk:
Someone in the radio thread said they were running it on 1.5. I wouldn't have done it had they not said it was working.

I'm really digging this 2.1 build though. If only I could get some kind of voicemail notification..anything at all would be nice. I only get about 1 VM a week, but missing it could be disastrous!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] grifforama:
BE VERY CAREFUL OF FLASHING THE LATEST RADIO.

I just flashed the new radio from Fresh 2b, and I have a bricked phone.

I mean completely. I can't even turn it on. It's dead.

I had a brief screen of a phone with an arrow from a box, and then it went dead.

Luckily, I have insurance, and I'm going to have to BS them into saying it's been stolen.

BE VERY CAREFUL
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kellybrf:
radio worked fine for me, and im showing some more bars. battery life is the biggest thing, it had already drained to 29% since flashing this morning and maybe an hour of phone calls and a few texts. great rom, thanks for everything flipz!

people have mentioned facebook, but i havent seen an answer as to why its not loading contacts?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] regaw_leinad:
Did the battery die? :rolleyes:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] crunchybutternut:
YouMail is a good alternative to Visual Voicemail IMO. It's free and offers individual greetings for each caller.

Worth looking in to.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sirchuk:
Kind of curious as to how you got bricked..Is it a CDMA Sprint Hero? Did you go through the appropriate steps after it said reboot, and did it complete the installation after the reboot?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hoopsdavis:
Sorry to hear that grifforama. Also thanks for sharing, I was just about to flash the radio file, but I think I'll be waiting now.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Yeah, I flashed the radio no problem. As a matter of fact, its outstanding!! My phone is so much faster now, it almost caught my hand on fire. Sorry you had problems.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] atkailash:
The phone didn't seem quite right flashing this over the Eris based one, so I did a wipe and install. Smooth sailing so far (except have to login after this recent boot, will reboot again later to see.) Too bad Sense + LiveWallpapers are a no go. But they work well (at least NexusMod does)

Installed the baseband too, it's plugged in so not sure how battery life is (the Eris one ate the hell out of my battery, it went from 60% to dead in 4hrs (airplane mode even, I was sleeping), can usually go 8+ before it gets to 30% from full)

Now to put all my icons and whatnot where I always have em (yet again :|)

Good work! Thank you, flipz/everyone. Get paid Friday so will try to send a lil $ to ya
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Vrekk:
I have nothing to donate when it comes to cash. I barely have enough for myself :(

I would do a ton of though quiz things flipz talked about though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sporkman:
id toss in some cash but i dont /wont use paypal .. been burnt before :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] boredmug:
dont usually do donations, but this is one i dont mind throwing a couple bux for.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Negrito:
I assume because the one that came with the port didnt have multi touch , and you have to uninstall it to installed the modded one that has multi touch enabled.

I assume there will be a separate zip to flash the junk, i mean sprint apps back.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rulermon:
hey man i appreciate all the work you have done for us over the last god knows how long i sent 5 bones and keep up the great work
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wtphoto:
to check and see which apps you will need to backup and then push back after flash cd to /data/app-private and then ls to list whats in there anything that shows in that directory is a protected app.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] randalldeflagg:
been holding out for the camera to be fixed. and what do you know. I leave the safety of the glow of my screen and return and I see this beauty. Donated. can hardly wait
[Hero CDMA Android Development] FoxRacR17:
two words: GOOGLE GOGGLES!

Cant wait to mess with that, haha.

Also any word on if google earth works on it? I know that the rom built off the leaked eris 2.1 earth would not load up.

EDIT: Donated some cash also, I have been meaning to for a while, but never got around to it. Figured now was a good time to thank you for all your hard work and as some incentive to keep you around since your one of the few devs we have left since gbhil left the dev scene
[Hero CDMA Android Development] troyboytn:
Stoked here as well, but "please", Flipz, give us the option of the stock rosie scroll bar and stock lock screen....maybe through the kitchen? (sorry, I do not like espresso at all).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MotherMayI:
i 2nd that...please <3...^^^ same thing as above
[Hero CDMA Android Development] poor_red_neck:
This is AWESOME!

HOWEVER... Is there any way to pull the part of the earlier released Eris 2.1 ROM that does have Market protected apps?

This is the ONLY thing really from keeping me to using a ROM like this "every day" (with my 1.5 NAND backup ready, just in case.)

(sorry to hi-jack) Is it possible to pull the apps currently installed on the phone that are protected and push them via adb on the 2.1 ROM? Or would APPS2SD fix this? (Install the app in my 1.5 ROM and then just restore the 2.1 ROM and it will just have to write Dalvik cache?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rjj1976:
Just use Titanium Backup to backup all your apps then you can restore them even the protected apps.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] FoxRacR17:
It is possible. I use root explorer (paid in the market) and you just go to your /data/app or /data/app-private and copy the .apk from there over to my sd card, then just install the .apk again when you install the rom.

If you dont want to buy root explorer (its only a buck if i remember right and very useful) you can adb pull/push them also
[Hero CDMA Android Development] poor_red_neck:
SWEET!

I just re-read this thread and found this post:

Whoops! My bad!

I actually already have Root Explorer. Must have program for root!!(other than WiFi Tether ;) ) Glad to know I can do that though. I just answered my question too...

For some reason with Modacco 2.x (forgot which version I have, the latest) I can't find some apps in the market, like Shop Savvy. I flashed the Eris ROM playing around and remembered to look for Shop Savvy. Found it instantly. Installed it (of course would not work w/o camera) and when I restored my 1.5 Modacco backup, Shop savvy was happily installed :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jvz555:
You should use Nexus one theme like Darkloid or whatever its called. :)

I would love you forever if you did.

........No Homo:p
[Hero CDMA Android Development] CEspaillat:
Donated!!!! Omfg!!! Can't wait!!! Flipz you are the man!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dnalevelc:
I just donated also. I can't wait to play with this. I haven't read through everything just yet, but I do wanna ask: Will I have to root again when this is installed?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] phonetec:
this looks great with the live wall paper fix i posted earlier

[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
Ha!! Suck it Sprint!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theraginasian:
Awesome! I hope it has apps2sd... not a deal breaker, but man, it sure helps.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] robchaos:
Thank you for the info. The lack of vvm is killing me too. Can't wait till flips gets the official Sprint build in his hands
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
Which radio did you flash? There is one of the Fresh 2.0b (radio version 2.41.04.02.03) and there is a separate one for Eris-dump ROMs (radio version 2.41.04.02.02).

Everybody... ALWAYS be careful when flashing radios!!

EDIT: The one that I just flashed successfully is the "Fresh 2.0b (radio version 2.41.04.02.03)"
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mooniefresh13:
Man, I have an App Wireless Hero as well, just got done flashing the new radio, and it seems just fine. It's your call, just wanted to tell you it didn't brick mine.:D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nbroneobi:
Just flashed over the radio for fresh and no problems just follow the instructions

Im having the same sync issue with Gmail. Reboot it and you can forget it...LOL I also lose my Gmail account sometimes after a reboot...I may end up going back to 1.5.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gqukyo:
I was using Youmail's app but was told that it's a known issue that it keeps the phone awake 100% of the time w/ 2.+ roms... imma try it again on this rom and see what happens. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sirchuk:
I'm just leary about installing an app that wants my calls forwarded to it.

Just noticed, not getting LED notification of missed calls either. So no voicemail at all, and no flashing LED for a missed call.

Missed calls do show up in the notification bar, just no LED.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TheBiles:
I cannot connect to my device in the command line for some reason! I have it set to "HTC Sync," and I have the latest version of HTC Sync and HTC Drivers installed from the website, but no devices appear when I type "adb devices." It does appear in recovery, however, but that is pretty useless. I do have USB debugging enabled. This was never a problem on any other ROM.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] regaw_leinad:
In this rom (and a few others) there is no way to turn off gps AND keep location on. is there fix?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] crunchybutternut:
That was a fairly big problem on the 1.5 ROMs but has not been an issue on any of the 2.0/2.1 ROMs that I have used.

Been using Youmail for 2 days (with Fresh 2.0/2.0b) and my phone is sleeping normally and battery is lasting longer than being on 1.5 without Youmail running.

The voicemails do not get forwarded to the app. Youmail does provide a voicemail service, much like Google Voice or Sprints own voicemail.

It is free though and allows for individual greetings/messages for each caller or group, depending on your preferences.

I especially love the "smart" greeting that greets each caller with the name associated with the number in your contacts.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercado79:
My guess is that its Facebook sync related. My contact names were all scrambled in the SMS app until I removed that syncing.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hoopsdavis:
Go to "Settings" > "Location" and uncheck "Use GPS satellites"
[Hero CDMA Android Development] crunchybutternut:
I was curious about this too, but it does still use the cell towers for location. It is just, obviously, not as accurate as GPS.

With GPS location turned off I can still use location services in the browser and google maps, etc.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] regaw_leinad:
I wouldn't have posted if I hadn't tried that..

When you uncheck it, it goes straight to the location screen, where it automatically turns location to 911 only, and location is turned off (also the location off in the task bar)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Street_Knowledge:
I have been unable to send mmsbut can still receive , and unable to turn haptic feedback off when typing. Everything else works great though

[Hero CDMA Android Development] grifforama:
Sorry for the non-updates. I have just been down to my local Sprint Store to get a new phone. Luckily the phone was completely dead, and I managed to convince them I was doing a PRL update and my phone died...phew.

I don't know what happened. In all seriousness, and flame me down if you like, I flashed the radio on Flipz personal blog site, had the picture of a phone out of a box, and then nothing for about 10 minutes.

Tried pressing power a few times, then decided to pull the battery.

Phone was bricked.

Could have been a bad phone for all I know, but I'm just saying be careful.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thajacka:
i dont have it either, i had to manually install it, also estrongs did not show up for me either, manually installed that too. wifitether does not work though, problem with superuser i think. wired tether does not work either, error 67.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
Jeez, some people will do anything to get a new phone!:p

JK, I'm glad it worked out for you.:D

When I was using this I had random Market and message force close errors, then I couldnt get to my contacts..

otherwise very good so far
[Hero CDMA Android Development] knx2:
I flashed this no problem. But I now notice that my signal is very jumpy. When I set my phone down the signal goes down to one bar and when i pick it up the signal will max out. Anyone else see something like this? I am in a Sprint store and I know the coverage is max here because I work here hah.

Forgot one thing. Under status and battery use it says my cell standby is 53%.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] funcrusher:
Mine opens fine.

@alexthearmo
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Spunkzz:
glad to know i'm not the only one seeing this.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] troyboytn:
I originally flashed this rom over the Eris dump rom and had the exact thing happen. I had to wipe and reflash to get this to work correctly which btw also killed my ability to get protected apps in the Market......grrrrrr. Anyway all is good now (except the lack of protected apps).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alexthearmo:
Yikes...to me it's not worth wiping for. I'm running 2.0 right now...I'll try flashing 2.0b over the top and see if that does anything.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Tenny:
I've been using this rom (2.0 since sat night, and 2.0B since this morning) and it's a great rom. I want to thank Flip for all his hard work he's put into it.

Sadly I am going back to 1.5.

Reasons:

-Google Voice (Really need this working properly)

-Battery life (even with 2.0B, I went through 12% battery in a hour, I couldn't make it through all day yesterday w/o a charge... since I've had the phone I've never had that happen).

The only real reason I wanted 2.1 was for a few apps, but neither of those apps are worth having over google voice.

Anyways, I really appreciate all the hard work you put into getting 2.1!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kellybrf:
ok, MAJOR issue: all of my texts are merging into one thread. if person a sends me a text, then person b sends one the thread shows person a, but when i open the thread it does show person b's icon. persons c, d and e also merge with the thread, etc. when i reply it always goes to person a. wiping my inbox doesnt help anything, nor does a third party program like handcent. in fact, handcent shows the thread under a totally unrelated person x whom i have no texts with. help!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] conman13:
No problems flashing at all. I seem to get a little better coverage. Weird thing though...when google wants to know my location it is in chinese or japanese now rather than english. I cleared my cache and browser history etc...no luck. The weather app pulls the right location though. Anyone else experience this? (I've also tried rebooting several times.)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] muppetman462:
Great ROM

Flipz,

This is a great ROM! The only problem I ran into so far was SIDdroid does not work with it (no biggie) but Fring does.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Condo20t:
What version of GV are you running? I installed v0.2.8 and I'm not having any problems with it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alexthearmo:
Same issues here. I live 300 feet from a Sprint Cell tower, and always have full bars at home. Since flashing my signal status bars having been bouncing from FULL to NONE to ONE. I can't figure it out. I'm not moving the phone at all. I'm sitting right next to the window.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Tenny:
v0.2.0 & v0.3.0

Are you sure it's working properly? With 0.2.0 it tries to make the call but "the call is lost".

With 0.3.0 it connects and everything appears fine, but in reality it's not really using the Google Voice #, if you check the other phone it's still coming from the regular cell phone #, not the GV #.

Are you sure it's working properly?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TheBiles:
I'm getting this too! I can't even properly uninstall the old HTC Drivers without getting this error.

Lockscreen workaround

Hey guys just in case you didnt backup tried to go back to the stock android lockscreen and now its jumbled you can just push this .apk to your phone with adb and the sense version will be back.

just showing what i did in case anybody has any trouble

cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools

adb remount

adb push Gallery3D.apk /system/app

adb reboot

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Moguledyouth:
My Phone Weirdness

Ok so, I have had some of the same issues as other people in this thread, I have experienced the following:

1.) the GMail reboot logon failed issue (kinda a pain, and I wanted to test flashing 2.0 before 2.0b but the 2.0 download is gone now.

2.) neither WiFitether or Estrongs is in the App drawer after a clean wipe and flash

3.) This one I haven't seen others with, for whatever reason I had a voicemail that never was downloaded previously from last month, so when I boot the phone it pops up a "new voicemail" notification, which I promptly listened to and deleted from the system. BUT everytime I reboot, even tried flashing again that damn notification comes back.

I have to say, I do love these roms, keep up the awesome work, I even donated earlier today.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] koricua74:
I was having the same issues I think it may have something to do with the fact that this is based off a Verizon phone? I've flashed the radio image (Sorry to hear you had problems with it griff) and hopefully this fixes it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] muppetman462:
Wow, you are correct about the error with google voice. I did not see that either. Tried to call via google voice, and no dice.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Flashing now. Looking forward to seeing this rom! :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bthessel:
Ok, so when I try to restore my Nandroid backup it fails and says to run it from a command. If I want to go back to a 1.5 Rom can I just do a wipe a flash it back over it?

Excellent work all seems a go. Thanks again Flipz This version works better than the first
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Condo20t:
Just checked and you're right. It shows up with my regular number when making calls. I can receive calls with the GV number though.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] tango22203:
thanx work perfect....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tatonka_hero:
with the backup not running and spitting out an error to run it from adb? All the time.

Best bet is to wipe, then flash the stock version of whatever ROM you're trying to get back to, then reboot into recovery, wipe again, and run the backup. Works for me anyway.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] khaag27:
sorry if this was asked or talked about? I just got up and im sick, so I dont feel like reading all the pages. So I am relly behind lol..

But do I need to wipe the phone since I had the test rom on there before flashing the new one?

does SetCPU work with this kernel?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tatonka_hero:
no need to use setcpu on this, it's got something similar already incorporated into it, and setcpu can actually slow this ROM down quite a bit
[Hero CDMA Android Development] YoungAceAtlanta:
Am I the only one that can't make phone calls?. I've flash the Rom then flash the radio then rebooted my phone
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alexthearmo:
I flashed over the text ROM fine. No problems (well...a couple of bugs...but they were there even when I flashed over a fresh WIPE). Hope that helps.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kellybrf:
make sure your battery is above 40% or so. i had this problem, but i put in a fresh battery and all was good.

no, htc power management takes its place
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alexthearmo:
Ya...do NOT use SetCPU with this ROM. It makes it horribly laggy. This is the fastest ROM i've used so far, and that's without setCPU. Just use it as is.
