Has anyone tried using Ustream Broadcaster with this rom yet? I know that with Fresh rom, the video is all messed up. The video works fine with Qik, though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] durhamite:
I think I am missing something with apps to sd. The first post instructions are not clear to me. Is it automatic with a ext partition or do I have to throw some commands at it?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sdrewh:
has anyone been able to get the launcher2.apk or live wallpapers working on this rom. great work on this damageless!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
I apologize to all those having problems.

Usually if you have had apps2sd before, you will have to wipe or it will not boot up.

Again, I'm sorry for those having problems. I know that if you just try it out though, that you will love this. It is super fast, super stable, and by far worth it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
If facebook/other applications don't work, go fix your uids (available in the Other menu in recovery).

This will fix all of your problems.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] looneylu:
Definitely worth it... Damage, any reason why I wouldn't be able to install the friendstream.apk on this??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] smw6180:
Morning Damageless. :)

I flashed this over .9999 without a wipe. A couple minor glitches that I was able to resolve (phantom shortcuts, for example) and it's been up, running, fast and stable as hell ever since. Excellent work. Thanks for all your time. Go back to bed. ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Unfortunately friendstream doesn't work on this ROM.

I am looking into it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] looneylu:
Thanks!!! I'd like to try the fulle sense 2.1 experience
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ajaholic:
flash

how come you can't click on flash elements, e.g. on hulu.com i cant click the arrows on the side of the first picture to flip thru the featured content, or on hot97.com i can load up the stream player, but i can't click on play?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] durhamite:
ok, I found that it is automatic. You don't have to do anything in terminal. to check if it is working

adb remount

adb shell

ls /system/sd/app/

If you get a list of apps, its working .
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonnythan:
Applied it, froze during bootup, read that I have to wipe the ext partition. Wiped it. Re-wiping and applying now.

Woo.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] durandetto:
I had the same problem on 0.9999, but haven't tried on 1 yet.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bmwboyee:
I would also try to redownload from a different source. I had the same problem as you and it seemed my first download was corrupt.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonnythan:
Nope, worked fine this time. Download was fine. My ext partition had all of my apps and stuff on it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] durandetto:
Did you switch your VM settings under call settings? Mine worked after dialing *28##########, that's how it's activated.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sporkman:
only thing not working is facebook sync for me but ill deal with it :( i tried the fix you suggested still no luck .

still this is the best 2.1 rom i have tried A + work
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Flyer729:
Great Rom!!

I've been following this thread since it started. I just upgraded from .99999 to 1 without a wipe and everything works great! Great work Damage, Toast and the rest of the Devs!!!!

Oh, I forgot to mention, on Flipz 2.1b rom, the facebook application sync'ed with calendar also. Not seeying this with this rom, which is good, I think that was one of the reasons why FB messed with the contact pics.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bbv203:
I get the same problem, is the ext partion used for regular storage or apps to sd? I guess i'll have to backup the card when i get back from taking the kids to school.....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonnythan:
You should have a complete backup of the card anyway before you do any wiping or ROMing.

But the EXT partition is the one for Apps2SD, if you're using it.

In other news, I got the Google sign-in error. Groan.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
Me too. Fresh wipe, clean install, no awaiting messages (text, voicemail or email)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sporkman:
yea rebooted phone and got the sign in error as well
[Hero CDMA Android Development] djR3Z:
oh goodness...

;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aauussttiinn88:
anyone have insight on the "secret modem" apk that comes installed on this rom?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bmwboyee:
Do we need to download the app "apps2sd" in order for it to work or is it included in the updated rom?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david7586:
@ damageless

I'm not sure if I anyone else has noticed this, but I am noticing that the touchscreen doesn't seem to poll as often as othe rroms such as flipz 2.0b. In a very unscientific test, i noticed that swype was harder to type with on your 99.9999 rom. i flashed back to 2.0b (not 2.0b2) and the touchscreen polling seemed better. going back to the 100% version of your rom, I am stil experiencing issues. additionally, multitouch doesnt seem to be working on your rom for me.

would you have any insight on this problem? thanks man.

Also, your work is super appreciated. Still loving your rom regardless of the issues ive encountered!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
It is included.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] appzattak:
anyone get the trackball light to work?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aauussttiinn88:
damagless i freakin love your rom dude....i was wondering if you could check into that secret control modem apk that your rom has in it like what it does and why its there....TIA
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
The updated kernel might have something to do with this.

However, not completely sure. I haven't ever noticed this.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
I will look into it.

I will update my ROM later today with this removed. Seems like people are flipping out over it - I am skeptical and people are jumping to conclusions, but just to be on the safe side.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bbv203:
I have one, it's just a few days old.... So since I'm not using apps2sd what would wiping the ext parition accomplish? Or does it just have to be done to make this work
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aauussttiinn88:
thats whats up I apreesh
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bmwboyee:
Alright, i am a newbie on this apps2sd stuff. I partitioned my sd with first locating over 7000 mb and the second 800 mb. I have an 8 gb card. It seems I can only see the 800 mb partition. I want to put all my music and photos back on but of course that won't fit. How do I locate the 7000 mb partition?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] x99percent:
Ditto.

Also, busybox appears to be the same version... still at 1.15.2
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonnythan:
If you don't have an ext partition don't worry about it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonnythan:
Sounds like you made your ext partition 7 GB and your fat (windows/sd card) partition 800 MB.

You need to re-partition. Make your ext partition 500 MB and use the rest of the card for the fat partition. The fat partition is the one that shows up as "sd card" and mounts in Windows. The ext partition is the one your apps will go on.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] slackwaresupport:
this has to be the fastest growing thread EVER!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
I will update this in a small version update today.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tyrnight:
I did a fresh Wipe and Install and the HTCWeather widget wouldn't load.. and if I went to add it, its not there in the HTC widgets.. I looked in /system/app and its there.. but the system doesn't recognize it..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Just tested this widget with no problems.

Anybody else have this issue?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bbv203:
Guess I'll re download then. It froze after a couple minutes of being on the nexus boot screen. I wiped EVERYTHING first, tried rebooting, and reflashing.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] smw6180:
I was using Fresh 2.0b2 with swype as well. I just sent several e-mails and a text message on DC v1 and noticed absolutely no difference in the swype operation. Worked fine, no lag, no other issues.

Multitouch is also working just fine.

I suggest a wipe (if you didn't before you flashed this) and a re-flash, then try it again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tyrnight:
the file sizes are 0k thats odd.. maybe I should re-download the rom and try again..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] smw6180:
Bad flash maybe? It's there and fully functional on mine.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] slackwaresupport:
damage,

does it have live wallpapers?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david7586:
I believe it's hard to notice unless you are actually using swype because swype leaves a trail behind your finger movements. The trails i have seen while using your rom are more "jagged or aliased" in comparison to other roms. The only reason why im inclined to think that this was a touchscreen error instead of a processor/ram usage problem (like too many apps open) was because i also noticed the multitouch issue. multitouch doesnt seem to be working for me at all in the htc browser or htc homescreen. However, a rom like 2.0b not 2.0b2 worked fine.

Thanks again!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
I think Live Wallpapers do work just not using Sense.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong. I haven't tested it.

Heck, I've barely gotten the chance to use my own ROM
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sinistermeshes:
genuis.

i would like to formally apologize for having ever doubted the best ROM available on the internet.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] slackwaresupport:
i know it doesnt work with sense, but you can switch to Home and works fine.. but its not in the rom that i see..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
No problems with multitouch here. In fact, if anything it runs better on this ROM.

Did you do a full wipe?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aaron130:
Hey damage not sure if u seen my post earlier but I diownloaded that adfree android and updated my host file and it still doesn't work. Any ideas?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] networx2002:
I just pulled these files and now i dont get that gmail login error

adb remount

adb shell

cd system

cd app

rm SecretControlModem.apk

SecretControlModem.odex

can someone else comfirm
[Hero CDMA Android Development] n388mm:
i did a no wipe flash from .9999 espresso to v1 espresso with zero issues.. no FC's or freezes.

damn its fast. awesome job.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Find out what yours hosts.conf file contains
[Hero CDMA Android Development] slackwaresupport:
whats the difference in roms? from the other to espresso??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] timezone12:
is'nt that the modem that you use to hook your pc up with? you can use your phone as a modem right?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aauussttiinn88:
i tried with a terminal emulator and i get the read only file error....cant wait to get home to take this off
[Hero CDMA Android Development] smw6180:
Ok, so I sent a couple more e-mails after reading this...I'm not seeing what you're seeing with regards to the swype trails. They're perfectly fine, no jags, no lags. And as I said, multitouch works just fine on the homescreen and in the browser.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aauussttiinn88:
if i downloaded the non expresso version would it be ok to get rid of the rosie apks i have on /system/app/ ?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] icm714:
For the ppl that are having the sign on problem did you try my idea on how to fix it. I baby test cause I don't get the error at all.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
I really don't think that anyone has to worry about that apk.

I could be wrong, but I don't see anything out of ordinary when I netstat.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] smw6180:
It's probably a coincidence. I had no problems with those files in the rom, pulled them, started getting the login issues. Several reboots later the issues are gone. I don't think those files have anything to do with it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sleejay:
alright ill ask the questions:

live wallpapers? how do we do it.

nexus launcher (launcher2)? how do we do it.

great rom, best yet
[Hero CDMA Android Development] azfxstb:
Facebook

Well everything seems ok except the Facebook sync, may sound silly but thats a deal breaker for me, other than that it seems to work well. Yes I tried the Uid match from recovery still no joy, if it gets fixed I may try the rom again. Thanks for the efforts
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bitbang3r:
Sorry about the newbie-ish question, but I'm at work and dying to try the new ROM at lunch. If I download signed-DamageControlv1Expresso.zip to /sdcard, is there any way to get into the bootloader besides 'adb reboot recovery' while tethered via USB? Also, is there any way to delete HtcLockScreen* from the Hero itself, instead of via 'adb remount', then 'adb shell'?

Just to update yesterday's observations regarding multitouch, it appears I was wrong about Expresso not supporting multitouch pinch-zoom in the browser. I don't know why it didn't work yesterday, but it IS working now. The only thing I remember changing between last night and this morning was the default font size in the browser (was 'normal', now 'huge'). With this observation in mind, I'm now questioning whether non-Expresso .9999 really lacked it, or whether I was just doing something wrong.

Another thing I've noticed: the usability of StrokeKeyboard seems to vary wildly over time. I've had times when I couldn't even get it to reliably tell the difference between 'e' and 'o' (!!!), and other times when it seemed to work flawlessly, regardless of how careful or careless I was about drawing the letters properly. Overall, it seems to work less well with .9999 than it did with the previous release, but at this point I can't tell whether it's coincidence or due to some change at the kernel level.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JsChiSurf:
If you are worried about the 'SecretControlModem', save yourself some trouble in case the files truly are needed, and rather than delete them, at least pull them first so you can easily put them back on if something breaks, or, instead of deleting, rename them, so you can more easily "turn them back on".

mv SecretControlModem.apk SecretControlModem.apk.bak

mv SecretControlModem.odex SecretControlModem.odex.bak
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
I haven't ever had a problem with facebook sync with this ROM.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
You can get into recovery by holding down home and power when booting up.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mergethereat:
same here with the facebook sync problem. contacts stay at zero. wiped, reflashed, wiped again, flashed the expresso (used decaf first), waited until this morning and still nothing
[Hero CDMA Android Development] n388mm:
im not having a google login error at startup at all.. *knocks on wood*
[Hero CDMA Android Development] icm714:
As I'd right now I don't think they work I have tried dling a few lwp and changing to the non sense home and can't get it to work
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tyrnight:
I re-wiped and re-flashed.. and the Weather widget worked..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] icm714:
Ok a couple of questions for u when u flashed your Rom did you set up your vm right away or sign in to Google voice before reboot.

I'm thinking that it had something to do with the voicemail. Danger stated that it seems to happen when you have a msg waiting and well the phone can't get to the voice mail unless you set it up right and after u set it up it goes away. I might be wrong but its a crap shoot
[Hero CDMA Android Development] azfxstb:
Yup Face book wont sync and Led lights dont work. Installed from a wiped Moco Cooked ROM, gmail sign-in on each boot. Now I applied the mms fix before first boot after flash of rom and I have the "updated radio" not sure if that would have any effect but thats my results..rom is fast fast fast and butter smooth but those "eye candy" things i just like to much
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ganyapr:
Facebook sync not working either

Has anyone found a solution to this, I have tried Wipe everything and reflash and even used the mismatch uid without any luck. Help please.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tyrnight:
Facebook sync Works for me. I had to re-wipe because the sdcard wouldn't mount and the weather widget was MIA, but since the re-wipe and reload all is good so far
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bbv203:
EDIT:

Wiping Ext partition worked, I don't know why, afaik I don't have that with out partitioning my card for apps2sd.....

So far i've tried all 3 download sites for the espresso and they all freeze on the nexus boot screen. I've done all the wipes; data/factory reset, dalvik, battery and sensor wipes each time. I'm not using apps2sd so i did not do the ext wipe. However in logcat it seems to be still seeing all my apps.

Help

Previously I updated Fresh ROM with new Radio. Now, I am trying to re-flash your ROM and it freezes on Nexus screen. Do you know why? Some one please help. I wiped the phone.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sleejay:
lets make a quick guess... you didnt nandroid backup
[Hero CDMA Android Development] prodigy2m:
Yes I did but that's not the issue. The issue is that how can a person flash a ROM coming from Fresh with new Radio? Do you have ideas, suggestions, or regards. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonnythan:
You need to re-wipe, then wipe the EXT partition. Then re-apply the ROM and reboot.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Street_Knowledge:
sooo I was kinda drunk and missed a step last night, I seriously must have DL'd this thing 6 times thinking I had a corrupt download, apparently what was causing my problem was not renaming the zip ( I know I fail) is what was causing my problem. For a ROM that was intended to unite a community, comments like this:

really shocking, you two should be ashamed of yourself.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Agreed. Let's all be nice to each other.

If you are having problems with it booting, please wipe your ext partition. This will fix any problem you are having.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 98classic:
this is OT but those PM's are GREAT hahahaha. hope you learned your lesson and not be so stupid next time. lolololol:cool:

someonenewhere is a dickwad, called me a troll for telling someone they were stupid on anotherthread guess he likes to do it in private. idiot
[Hero CDMA Android Development] prodigy2m:
Wow, that's problematic... You know, one thing to wipe the cache and stuff like that but to wipe an EXT partition (sd card)... all the images needs to be copied to computer and stuff like that... And there is NO other way you think?

Thanks for suggestions by the way.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
Wipe your ext partition.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tatonka_hero:
um...put it on your card, wipe data, flash ROM.

Re-download the ROM if it doesn't work again. Might have gotten a corrupt download, it seems to be happening quite a bit with this ROM for some reason

The radio version doesn't make a difference.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jerrygon:
This does not wipe the images and other personal files you have on your card.

So don't worry.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tatonka_hero:
Aren't only apps stored on the EXT partition? EXT would be the part you can't see on your computer, correct? Images and the rest of the stuff on the card are stored in the other partition...correct?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 4redstars:
Great Rom. applied the new update and it seems to be functioning even better than yesterday!

Thanks a ton!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] blehzz:
CORRECT!!!!!1
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
You are correct.

Let me repeat this.

You will not lose any pictures or other files on your SD card by wiping the ext partition!!!

This only clears what you may have had in the past if you have had apps2sd.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jerrygon:
Lol... I bet we still get 10 more post about this today.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] n388mm:
when i flash i did not wipe so my google sign in was already setup.

im using google voice for my voicemail and it was already signed in on boot.

and have 0 unread sms but 403 unread email
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Nak131:
battery drain

First of all thank you to all the devs for their hard work! This rom is AWESOME!

I seem to be experiencing poor battery life.... is anyone else having this problem? I went from a full charge (overnight) to 91% in 15-30 mins. brightness is on a low setting, phone usage includes checking my email and flipping through the home screens and such. It's now an hour and a half since I unplugged my phone and it's down to 75% after sending a couple of texts and rebooting once. I turned off any automatically refreshing services I could think of... Doesn't seem like my battery should be draining that quickly, anyone think they know of a possible fix?

Sorry if this question has been addressed already, but I did search the forum before posting
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kraminc:
Fastest ROM I have used to date. Great work. Only issue i have had so far other then the login after a reboot issue is with the Gallery. Selecting the camera causes a force close.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jeb0921:
Everyone with problems seem to think that we are all having issues. I assure you that the small number of problems on here are vastly outweighed by the majority of us that have no problems so we don't come on an complain.

Great work Damage and crew. You are appreciated by the majority.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] navalynt:
I did a few searches in this thread but I never saw a clear resolution for apps such as Bank Of America where the website shown from the app does not pull up but instead looks like a connection error.

I'm not running any adblock software currently. I tried installing, updating, then removing Adblock but that didn't work.

Is there a resolution on this and I just missed it? If there has hasn't been a resolution can this be updated on the first post as a known issue?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sefferdog:
Yea, but what about my mp3 files?:confused:

Couldn't help myself........ ;);)

<ducking flying objects>
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jerrygon:
