hmm well it works great from just voice , but if i just type it doesnt do anything the icon comes up where its searching but doesnt show anything.

personal opionion do you see a real benefit in upgrading RUU to the new Fresh RUU?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wtphoto:
do you mean the radio? personally I had updated the radio when I was running DC .9999 but I RUU,d when 1.0 came out and I seem to have better performence with the stock radio.

if you are talking about the actual RUU then I would say that due to some of the problems that people have had with the 1.56 ruu (works fine for me) that I would stick with the 1.23 ruu.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
300 pages! W00T!

Obviously no update today. I am still working on some things. I want the next release to be good, so I figure it will be worth the wait.

Will this have a working auto backlight? Darchstar says he has it working in the upcoming version of DarchLegend. Great ROM by the way. Keep up the amazing work!

Did this to remove the lockscreen cause i want this AOSP regular but it says

rm failed for HtcLockScreen*, No such file or directory

I searched thread for others maybe having this issue but noone else seems to have this issue......

I too would like to get friendstream working on this amazing ROM of yours. it does not need to be included per se, just want to get it working.

So far i'm flying high on running 2.1 superfast on my hero. Thanks a ton!

Voicemail Notification issue

I followed the instructions in the OP to get rid of the voicemail notification and setup my phone number to match in the 'carrier' voicemail setup on the phone. However every time I boot up the phone it tells me I have a new voicemail waiting and i must go in and clear the voicemail icon again. I have called voicemail and deleted ALL messages both new and saved yet the notification persists. Is this something everyone is experiencing?

Also, I was having the google sign-in problem however deleting my contact groups appears to have fixed it. I have not tested with texting or anything to see if the problem reappears, this is just my initial observation after a couple of reboots.

Thanks again damage for your dedication to this!

PS. I don't mind the 4 signal bars at the top. I see this as an extraneous issue not something wrong with the core of your ROM.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kylejoynes:
Hi, I am a newbie here and have a question. I love the ROM so far. Its blazing fast! However, I wanted to fool around with the live wallpapers. I d/l the livewallpaper apk but how do I push the file? Is it from the device? my command prompt? I understand what command I use but where do I put the apk i downloaded and how do i get it onto the phone. I searched the threads throughly but the directions mite as well be in Chinese, lol. Any step by step would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Kyle

haha you use command prompt if you have windows

do you have the android sdk?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] shadowmikel:
no i just wiped sd ext
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rufflez2010:
Easiest way would be to use something like prekitchen for you. There's an option to push and pull files built in. Or follow these directions:

Hey I really need help I just rooted my hero for the first time using thersethatguys's Gudie to root on windows and backed up everything up I put this rom on my sd card and flashed it but the nexus one loader comes up and passes but when it boots the whole thing force closes.. I dont know whats the problem I dont know if its because i havent partitioned my sd card ...but I looked at another post and it said to wipe the sd ext and I did and I loaded it back on again and still force close and I renamed it update.zip and everything and I just used the guide to root hero on windows It says 1.5.2 recovery image

...then I re-downloaded the rom and now it wont go it freeze's at the boot. ...what am i doing wrong Do I need to re root if so please tell me How.

is there a way to add it back?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wtphoto:
thats where your problem lies then, when comming from a 1.5 rom you need to mipe data, delvick, and if you want to use apps2sd the ext paretition. wipe everything then try reflashing.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
From the first page of the thread:

Why is this 100%

* There is a fix for *nearly* every problem - just search the thread!

* For things there isn't a fix for, there is a workaround that works better

* The rest of the problems are problems that cannot be fixed until there is a better leak, we get our hands on the source of the kernel, or Sprint releases something. However, it should be noted that the problems are extremely minimal. Microscopic, even.

So yes, 100%.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonnythan:
Not to sound unappreciative or anything, but it's obviously not 100%. It might be 100% "as good as we can get now" but it's not 100%. It's "100% complete except for the things that aren't" ;)

I noticed that I'm now having issues (worked on stock Sprint ROM) with drocap2 when I want to take a screenshot - most of the prefs are grayed out and even though the countdown timer work, nothing happens when it gets to 0. Anyone else? OR what's another screen capture tool that works w/ this ROM?

[Hero CDMA Android Development] sadalius:
For those that are looking to edit their EPST, this is an eris rom, therefore you would need to use the codes for an eris to edit the EPST. What worked for me is ##778+CALL button. Now I have to remember what to change to reduce the ring lag.

I actually think it's kinda cool that the trackball doesn't light up most of the time, especially at night so that the button area is not as bright and annoying. Also, when I get a text only the trackball lights up and not the rest of the buttons which I thought was supposed to happen out of the box, so that's awesome to see (even if it is by accident)! :cool:

Now you can:

You should see 4 dirs there:

check the dirs for files and that will mean it works.

I noticed that error too, but if you go into recovery and convert ext2 to ext3 and reboot it disappeared for me. Perhaps for you too?

Working good on my Hero.

One question that I can't figure out (and I've searched this thread) is how do I limit which Gmail contact groups the phone syncs? I don't want every email address I've ever sent or received from in my phone book. I could easily fix this with 1.5, but I can't figure out how to in 2.1.

Thanks in advance for the help.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kkruse:
I noticed the libextfs.so errors on a SD partition formatted as ext2. IF you convert this to ext3 the fsck stuff actually CAN work on ext3 just not ext2. I think the (eris) build is missing the libextfs.so needed to fsck properly a ext2 formatted filesystem.

Workaround:

in adb as root:

tune2fs -j /system/sd

should do the trick or do the ext2 -> ext3 thing in RA.

That should make the logcat apps2sd libextfs.so errors go away.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MrWicked1:
Ok thanks i apreciate it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chizUFL:
I'm using the Fresh 2.1 rom, but I had this same question and this was the only workable solution I eventually found.

Go into People, stay on the All icon, Menu -> View, Uncheck "Show auto Email contacts"

It looks like that will display only My Contacts, but will still sync everything from Google contacts. Not exactly the same as you could set it on 1.5, but made the contacts much more usable. Hope this helps.

Ok, I have a HUGE PROBLEM.

My phone works, I can call in and receive calls just fine, but when I went to setup Google Voice as my Visual Voicemail service, I tried calling my phone to see if it worked. I hit the decline button and I got an automated message saying I have reached a number that has been disconnected and is no longer in service. :confused::confused::confused:

I called it again from the same land line, but didn't decline the call. I got the same automated message.

I called it again and answered it, it works fine, but I get that message instead of going to my voicemail.

Please help!

UPDATE: I deactivated my phone on Google voice and called my number and it works again. It went back to my old voicemail.

What other options do I have to get visual voicemail on my phone?

It is too bad that these great rom release threads have become bickering, nitpicking threads. I for one am tired of hearing "it is not 100% complete". If he doesn't intend to do anything else on this rom until an official release then it is complete. But all of that is a moot point. It is a great rom that runs great and he did it on his own time. If you don't like or only want to nitpick, dont' use and stop coming here and insulting the developer and users!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] smw6180:
Shh. It isn't nice to feed the trolls. You're only helping to derail the thread.

Back ON topic: I've noticed a peculiar problem...Had about 3 days without a reboot before I started seeing memory problems. But the real issue was that last night my battery suddenly got REAL hot, REAL fast. Hadn't changed anything about what I was doing on the phone...and I'm not saying this is a DC problem...but it was odd. Rebooted the phone and everything calmed down. I suppose potentially it could have been a runaway process caused by a crashed app or something, but wanted to see if anyone else had had a similar issue.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] joetemp75:
so when i change this the phone will ring right away or what does it do

I had been thinking about lowering my sci for a few days so I called sprint on monday and told the csr I am calling to get the msl numbers to the 2 hero's on my account, she asked why and I just told her my incoming calls are lagging and I want to lower my sci to see if it helps. She have them right to me, and I made sure they were NOT the one-time-use one's ;)

If you want your msl just call them up and ask for it.

I can't report results yet, I'm going to wait till I have time to start over and reflash this ROM.

BTW I've tried 4 2.1 roms so far and haven't been able to get any of them rooted properly. If anyone can reboot or reboot recovery from a terminal app will you please tell me your secret?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] geoff2005:
im been searching in this thread and i cant seem to find an answer

how do you tether? sorry if i missed the answer
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nebenezer:
I also haven't been able to get wireless tether to work. Someone suggested putting the phone into airplane mode, letting the radios shut down and turning them back on.

This did not work for me, but I think it's pretty awesome so much else works.

I've had some trouble sorting things out and have decided to give DC1.0 another try.

I just flashed the rom, haven't even swiped the screen down. Any suggestions?

Should I go thru the TTG root steps?

I noticed that the flashrec method is pretty much just "flash your rom" after you've finished flashing your recovery image.

Please, if you only answer one question...

What is a definitive way to tell if I am rooted or not?

*edit- In my experience:

Wifitether does not work, will connect to phone but not to web

Better Terminal Emulator Pro does not work

ShootMe DOES work

Su Permissions screen opens to ask for permissions, accepts input, doesn't hang

I've never had a problem with getting into or using recovery
[Hero CDMA Android Development] churraman:
Can you guys recommend an alternate voicemail solution go Google Voice?

On a purely voicemail front it is better because... well, that's all it does and it makes the more advanced stuff easier.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercado79:
Wireless Tether is indeed there. Scroll down to near the bottom of the programs list. The icon is green.

The only thing I had to do was go to Menu --> Setup and then click "Enable Access-Control". Once this is set, you just go back to the main screen and click on "Press to start tethering."

I always make sure that my Mobile Data is enabled, but leave off Wifi. The app takes care of turning everything on for you, though you'll probably be prompted to "Always Allow" the app to run as Root. Also, with the Access-Control setting on, you'll get a prompt when you first try to connect to your shared Wifi internet connection. Just enable it and you're good to go.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PRGUY85:

werid, i guess it didnt install.... cannot find such app on my phone
[Hero CDMA Android Development] red_neck_unix_tech:
WOW!!!

I just have to say FREAKING FANTASTIC ROM!!!!

I had rooted, and installed the recovery, but hadn't gone on from there. I did a factory wipe, but not dalvik. Flashed the ROM and it is great.

I have the typical Gallery problems, can't switch between portrait and landscape, and another including that if you let the screen-saver kick in, and then "login" again, it FC's, but that is acceptable.

I have the web problem where apps that aren't the browser can't use the web. Tried installing adblock, but haven't had the chance to try and figure out how to go on from the install to try and get it working.

Over all the ROM is FAR faster than the stock I was on.

The battery life is the same, or better than what I had on stock.

I haven't upgraded the radio, and I'm not sure if I will.

Anyway, fabulous work Damageless, fabulous work. Just wanted to let you know what my experience has been.

I had no problems rooting, backing up, or flashing over this ROM to my Hero, everything is working fine. But, now when I try to access my phone through adb it doesnt get recognized. Ive tried uninstalling and reinstalling the driver but i just get the message "Windows could not find driver software for your device" even when I point it to the correct folder. Any ideas on how to fix this?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nebenezer:
I don't know if this is against forum rules or anything but go here:

Wireless Tether For Root Users

1.60-pre3 is what damage preloaded into this rom but there is a 1.6-htc, maybe that'll work for you. I don't THINK there would be any danger in installing it to see if it works but DO NOT TAKE MY ADVICE, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONDITION OF YOUR PHONE.

That said, I loaded one of the 2.0 versions the other night, it didn't work for me but I was having other trouble before that. It didn't make things any worse though.
