Then edit the /system/init.d/gumbo.sh to be less aggressive.

EDIT: Hmm, seems like there are some reports that minfree adjustments aren't sticking. Can anybody verify?

Sorry jonnythan, I tried to help.

EDIT: Looks like damageless knows about it and is working on it.

i need some help with this rom... sense is using WAY too much battery for me, id like to remove it..

how can i safely remove all of sense? what files should i delete?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Street_Knowledge:
why not just disable it?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sleejay:
i like a clean setup. im anal :)

i just need to know what files i can remove to get rid of sense entirely
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JsChiSurf:
From what I've read it is difficult, if not impossible to do from the HTC version. Your best bet is to go with one of the AOSP solutions.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sleejay:
the only problem is that this rom has everything working that i need. the others dont qualify for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JsChiSurf:
That's a compromise you'd have to make at this point.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sleejay:
the only reason i want to do this, is in spare parts i see 'sense' on top, with an astronomical amount of awake time, and my battery has been ****e with this rom, but i love it :/
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bielinsk:
I don't get it. I just got about 36 hours with this ROM and some not so heavy use.

Battery life is going to be tough until we get the official release with HTC power management and new radio. Suck it up for a few weeks then we will see what happens.

But then again, I am not seeing any worse battery life then I did with stock. Now if I am browsing with Java turned on, then the battery goes to **** real quick.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] getut:
Well... I hope my post here can help someone else. I hope to make my mistake and misunderstanding clear for anyone else that may be having the same problems.

My incorrect understanding of what everyone was saying about wiping the EXT on the SDCard was that was a fix for apps2sd and that if you got no errors when flashing that this wasn't necessary. It seems that it is necessary even if the flash appeared to go on without errors.

I had problems with not being able to save contacts entered from the phone and losing multi touch if I applied other flashes like the stock keyboard. I had done a normal wipe and a dalvik wipe but not an EXT wipe.

So as a last resort, I wiped all three and installed one more time. Everything works now except for the published problems like web apps. I even have voice to text in every field.

Oh... I had to partition the SD Card. RA 1.6.2 kept complaining that wipe failed. The only thing I could do is partition. Now wiping works every time.

Hopefully this will help someone. Wipe the EXT also... its NOT just a fix for apps2sd problems and that is what I thought the devs were saying.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Dan330:
can I suggest adding Wavesecure Beta to your setup?

hi Damages...

again great work...

i am using Wavesecure and I think it is a great security blanket for me. Modaco 2.2 had the Wavesecure cooked into the ROM so that it could not be removed. Can not be uninstalled or messed with.

Funny thing is.. when I installed DCv1.. it wiped the app off my phone.. :rolleyes:

I installed it from the market and is working great! but it can be uninstalled easily. Sooooo.. can you add this to your next build?

later
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonnythan:
I would second this. WaveSecure is a really great piece of software and one of the few "extra" things that really benefits from being included.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lgevo:
Thanks Damage

Thanks Damage i have no issues with this except the vvm but i use youmail like posted and this works like a dream its faster then the stock 1.5 and its 2.1. wow i am just in awe at how great this works i have had 0 issues. I have no regrets about leaving my palm pre and samsung moment no longer! Anyone know if we will be able to get more function out of 10.1 flash or is this the best it will be?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] x99percent:
There is no need to add it to the build. You can download an update zip directly from WaveSecure, and flash it in yourself.

http://www.wavesecure.com/installations/update.zip
[Hero CDMA Android Development] realmrealm:
The reason it went away is you flashed another ROM. You're right, it was "cooked" in, but what it was "cooked" into was the ROM that you replaced when you flashed damagecontrol.

This is only my opinion, so please be nice....

Most people (the common person) that steals/borrows/finds your phone is not going to know what wavesecure is, they're going to screw around with the phone, start looking at your texts, etc.. By this time I would think that you would have realized your phone was gone and either sent a lock command yourself, or walked someone else who is in front of a computer through sending a lock command.

If someone like you or I get the phone we are going to know enough to be able to disable the wavesecure using adb or just flashing another ROM.

Also it is my opinion that if you have very secure data on your phone that you should have "USB Debugging" disabled (except for when you need it), and that you should be using the lock pattern with a timeout. If I ever get up and walk away from my phone i press the "end" button to activate the lock pattern. If anyone got my phone, even if it wasn't locked, it would either lock on them when they pressed the end key, the timeout happened, or they rebooted. By that time I would have sent a lock, and possibly wiped. I'm also super paranoid about my phone because of my clients info that is on it, and I never let it get out of sight. It sleeps next to me, and goes to the bathroom with me.

I know there are advantages to having it "cooked" in, but I think when you weigh the above that the case isn't such a big one.

Also I think to make damageless support another derivative (not everyone would want to have wavesecure forced on them) is too much.

..... again my opinion.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonnythan:
Is that an official or updated version? Do they have a link to that on their page?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lazyvegaskid:
Couldnt have put that any better myself. Leave it out the rom please.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wtphoto:
very eloquently put.

lets not forget that damage didnt want to maintain a rom to begin with but he has done so at the request of many people and becuase of the support that everyone has given. if you want something or dont want something just add/remove it from the great base that he has worked so hard on. if you are still new to the android world and need help with any of it search the main forum or ask in one of the customization threads. lets let damage worry about the main functionality of the rom rather than trying to add/remove all these programs.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] diordnahero:
lockSCREEN not lockbar
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Agreed.

My ROM is meant to be a starting base. I will only add things that I consider necessary. However, anybody can build off of what I have and build their own customized ROM, I just ask for credit to be given where credit is due.

I will check out wavesecure and stick it in the ROM if I consider it essential.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Tenny:
I'm with realmrealm.

We can all add / remove apps, so a nice clean rom is the best building block from my point of view! Really looking forward to the next version, as I'm waiting for it before going back to 2.1!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skola28:
Damage, you have the best idea ever! Put it in if you want :)

Personally, I vote for it being included; although the update.zip version is nearly as useful. Especially since it could be included on the first post; just a thought.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david_ag:
I consider Mobile Defense a much better, easier to use app, and works great!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dmitriandsnow:
So do we have to wait for sprint's release to use google voice .30 ?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] blampars:
I'm using google voice .3 on this ROM (just for voicemail, mind you) without any issues.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] patmanz28:
Hey just wanted to send a thank you for this. All my tech geek friends had i phones ans palm pres, and as such when i got this phone (even rooted with gumbo 1.5) they didn't give it any respect. Too slow too glitchy blahh blahh blahh. well they all have been playing with it since your 2.1 and even they say it is like a completely different phone. kudos it is people like yourself and all the other contributers that make this platform all worth it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dmitriandsnow:
yeah i meant for calls...

P.S. after wiping everything and reflashing from stock 1.5 my 3 way call/conference is still not working on damage v1.0
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
The lockSCREEN without the lockBAR is a CLEAR LOCKSCREEN.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JsChiSurf:
Not to get into semantics, but no it's not. A clear lockscreen means you can see through what is behind the lockscreen. You can't do this currently on 2.1, like you could on 1.5.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Dan330:
ok... point taken and understood.

keep up the good work guys... :P
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
You're 100% right. I apologize and stand corrected.

I use the stock Eclair 2.1 lockscreen which is clear (except for the slider tabs on the sides). If you want that it's easily done.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] joetemp75:
Just wanted to say this is by far the best rom i have ever used. I am so looking forward to the updates.

My question is when the "official" update arrives from sprint can i install it over this or do i wait till it is rooted.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] getut:
Can someone coming from a 1.5 or 1.6 Rom verify before they update what their battery use/cell standby/Time without a signal is running?

There have been a few other posts here mentioning this but I haven't seen it compared to an older ROM.

I am NEVER getting below 50% time without a signal.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Dan330:
an issue I just noticed...

My weather widget.... the automated update is not working.

I set it to auto update.. in different times..

and tried other size HTC weather widget.

I set it.. hit the "back" button...

and i go back to check it and it is not set.

anybody have a fix for this?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] longlivethetea:
I had 2.0b added the new radio just fine. then did a wipe and flashed to this one and it maintained the new radio. for what its worth
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TheBiles:
Ok, so is there any real difference between this and Fresh 2.0b2? I just got this version completely working, then 2.0b2 is released.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Anyone notice when they try to download something from the market, the phone goes into 1x?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sporkman:
wow im getting lots of FC's mainly googlemaps
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
You need to chmod the /data/app and /data/app-private dirs
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Guys, I realize there are probably problems in the current version, that is why I need you to check it out! The sooner that you can find problems, maybe even fix them yourself and post the solution, the quicker I can implement the changes. If you can't figure it out, I'll take a crack at it and try to get it fixed. The point of this ROM is to get a 100% working ROM quick (we should have one today!).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
I will be doing this to get rid of the Verizon stuff.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Well said.

Everyone please note this thread. No need to troll. This has been a very clean thread so far so let's keep it that way. This is a fine example of how a COMMUNITY can shine. I am not after any glory.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sporkman:
oh sorry i wasnt bashing i was just posting back other than the FC's its a great rom
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tatonka_hero:
mind if I ask how long before the next update?

I don't exactly have blazing fast internet, and it'd probably take 20-30 minutes to download any version....so I'd rather not be downloading a version only for a new one to come up before it's done :P
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
Will the 'new' version to be released later today (or whenever) be able to be installed over the current rom without a wipe? Kinda tired of reinstalling everything from scratch but, for me, it seems to keep the FC monster in his cage.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
I am going to post the update later today. It is fairly early in the day and I want to give people a chance to try everything out.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
It will not need a wipe.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
Thank you. You are a rock star, you know that right? :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tatonka_hero:
hmm, think I'll wait then. I'm gonna flash that radio upgrade and see if it makes a difference on my service...hopefully it doesn't brick lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DanWalker:
WOW

It's days like this I wish I knew how to do anything more than use Pre-Kitchen. I'm such a newb. Congrats on all the accomplishments so far, unfortunately I have to wait for a complete version because I have no idea how to fix the "simple" things as you guys put it lol. Keep up the good work!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TheBiles:
I love this ROM! I have so much more free space than Fresh 2.0b. Even with 60 apps installed I have 80MB free! I had 40-30 on Fresh.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tatonka_hero:
just keep reading the guides in the wiki's, they're a heck of a help.

I started out the same way, with a very very basic knowledge of programming. Now, while I don't consider myself experienced enough to make my own ROM (yet), I can do enough of the basics to get by (ROM's, apk's, etc.)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hoopsdavis:
Damageless, does your ROM have the color icon under "People" and "Mail"? I've seen it on Flipz ROM just wondering if yours have it or will the next release have it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kratos313:
did the Radio flash work on your phone?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bcnice20:
That's probably more of a radio problem then with the Rom itself
[Hero CDMA Android Development] marcusva79:
Tried looking for the thread but couldnt find it. Whenever I am on a phone call I guess my fat cheeks always accidently hangs up the call, by pressing the call button. Is there a way to prevent that without losing wieght. Please help
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lgevo:
i just got sms Error cause code 24 error 2 i already did the mms fix? is the sms issues because of something else?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] radxcoresteven:
DAMAGELESS!

I love you, and kudos to you for all the time and effort you put into this, it really made me love my hero wayyyyyy much more than I did!

But I have one concern, I keep getting a notifications for two new voicemails, call *86..And i get redirected to virgin mobile..strange, I have sprint..and I checked my sprint voicemail,and I get no voicemails!

No problems, otherwise its perfect!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aauussttiinn88:
change *86 to your cell number and that should fix it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] khaag27:
does anyone else have a problem with there screen going black with fresh written in the middle? I get this after exiting out of apps. I notice it a lot when I close the app toddler lock and a few others?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bielinsk:
Are you sure you wiped before applying Damage?

wow that sounds dirty...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] durandetto:
I think that is Sense restarting. It used to happen to me all the time when I was running Fresh 1.1.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] smw6180:
Well I've more or less been lurking (posted a few here and there) but I wanted to say this:

I've just donated to the cause. Been using this for close to a week now and it's definitely working out as my daily. It's super fast, most of the little glitches have fixes and the random weird issues don't bother me any (have to log back in sometimes, if very rarely, for example). This is probably about as good as it will get before the official release comes out (assuming the official release isn't riddled with bugs that is), and even afterwards, I'm betting this will be more stable than the ROM Sprint distributes. Nice work. Major credit to you Damageless, and Flipz, GBHill, Toatsch, and everyone else who worked on this.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] khaag27:
yes i wiped the phone twice. So whats the deal with it saying fresh
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fatcobra:
I want to use this rom but i keep having service issues... I read in one post it is that there are less bars but i am constantly not receiving calls. My boss said he called me 3 times and i only received one of the calls. I wiped and flashed 3 times but have the same issue. don't have the problem when i run 1.5>
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bielinsk:
Not sure where that could be coming from.

May not be a bad idea to start completely fresh.

RUU back to stock, root, the install DC 1.0.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] radxcoresteven:
thank you! :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] khaag27:
ok thats way to much trouble to get THIS rom to work properly in my book
[Hero CDMA Android Development] getut:
Yeah.. something is going on now. I finally got my other issues worked out but now my battery is being sucked dry. 10% of a 1700mah battery in 30 minutes right after a reboot.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tmidle8575:
Agimax, just because Apollo and I are the only ones who spoke up, doesn't mean we're the only two who had the issue. And you may not have been trying to be rude, but you came across that way. I didn't want to start anything, and had already fixed the multi-touch, so I tried to take the high road and not start anything by backing down and saying that I wasn't 100% sure that the keyboard caused it.

Anyway, a few people have PMed me saying that they'd like to know how I fixed it. So, after flashing the Android keyboard that Agimax was so nice to provide and realizing that I no longer had multi-touch for one reason or another, I did an adb push of the attached file into /system/etc/permissions. Make sure you change the file name from a .txt to a .xml (it has to be changed from an xml to be uploaded). This file is originally included in the ROM in this location, but for whatever reason something gets messed up with it.

To recap, for those the PMed me and anyone else having multi-touch issues, change the attached file from .txt to .xml then push it into /system/etc/permissions. If you don't know how to do this, I'm not sure you should be playing with toys this expensive. ;)

I love this ROM Damage, please don't stop!

alarm clock not working?

Hey guys, I searched but I think I am having a different alarm clock problem

I use my alarm clock on my phone all the time. Works great, until I missed class this morning, lol I over slept and I couldn't find out what the issue was. I just tried setting an alarm a minute or two ahead and the alarm never goes off. It's weird. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

I am using the Expresso build and using the stock clock/weather widget app

EDIT: I take that back. none of the alarm apps are working on my phone!!?? What the hell??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] eldiablito004:
Hey is anyone having a problem when sending a text message (starting the conversation) I keep getting a sms error and its not sending my text ...I can only reply to the people that already sent me a text with no problem ...is there a way to fix it? Thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dcdave63:
Even though no one else responded to my messages, and no one knew what I was talking about, I figure I might as well type it up in the event it does happen to one other person.

On Friday, I put this ROM on my Hero. I moved from Fresh's 20b2 ROM, and yes, I ran Nandroid and did a wipe first, etc... Got it up and running a few minutes later, with no issues. It ran very quick, and I was loving it. The next day I was sending and receiving text messages, and sending and receiving emails. Made some phone calls. Thought everything was great. Sunday morning, started getting text messages from people asking me why my voicemail wasn't setup and why I my calls were going straight to a Sprint message stating "The number you have reached has not been setup for voicemail...".

Turns out, I had not received a single phone call since installing the ROM. I asked and for 2 days people tried to reach me, but thought my phone was turned off or disconnected, even though I have had the same voicemail on Sprint for almost 14 years!

Anyway, went home Sunday and tried to do a restore from a previous Nandroid, went back to that Friday night before the ROM, nothing. Went back a week, nothing. Went back to January 1st, 2010...nothing. So, I tried to install Darch's ROM over Damaged, since I didn't have anything to lose...nothing.

Called Sprint, they told me I had to go into the Store. So, Monday morning, went into the Sprint store expecting to get a new phone. The tech worked for an hour, couldn't figure it out. Even erased the phone, reinstalled from the latest RUU...you guessed it...nothing. So he ordered me a new phone and said it was covered under warranty and that it would be here Tuesday afternoon. I thought I was done....wrong.

He texted me 2 hours later and asked me to stop by. He worked with an engineer who looked at my account, and the ROM must (in some way) sent alternate settings to Sprints network, making it look like another phone (I am not sure of the exact settings, ESN, MSN, etc... that relate to how the phone connects to the servers and the voicemail settings), and shutting off my voicemail and expecting me to connect to the server with this "new" phone to setup my voicemail.

So, they wiped my phone from the server, and then re-activated it. The cleared my Sprint PCS username and password and something else (forgot, sorry). Once they cycled the phone, it connected right away. Got my incoming calls back, and a new voicemail account (lost 12 saved messages on the network, oh well).

I will be trying Darch's ROM (version 3 I believe tonite). I hope its as fast as Damaged's is.

DISCLAIMER : I am in no way *****ing or pissing on anyone, I don't mean to say anything that might piss anyone off, or blaming anyone in any manner. Just wanted to put it out there so if anyone realizes they are having the same issue, they know how to get help.

Thanks for all your hard work guys! Love ya! Mean it!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
This wasn't a problem with the ROM.

I have personally tested this ROM inside and out for bugs the last few days, including phone calls. This had to be something with something you did or something on Sprint's end that got screwed up.

Feel free to call yourself from another phone with this ROM.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dcdave63:
Sorry, but even though I didn't actually say I tried to call myself from another phone while on this ROM, I did. It seemed like a basic thing, so I limited what I typed to not continue on for 3 pages on here. I use three phones to be exact. Probably over 30 times I tried to call on Sunday while trying to figure it out.

And yes, I am sure that there will be not a single other person who may actually experience what I experienced, and no, like I said, I don't personally attribute what happened as only occurring from and on your ROM, but since it did, and its the only time in the half dozen ROM's I have tried on this phone in the last 3 months, where it happened, I figured I would post it here.

Maybe no one else will ever had this issue, and I hope they don't. Don't take it personally. It is one experience and one issue for one person.
