[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] askwhy:
See this thread on the GSM/CDMA Auto PRL setting, and make sure to read it carefully. While there is still debate about what is the actual default setting, and what is just a visual glitch, the reports of cold hard results cannot be ignored. People with 50% TWS are able to perform that tweak and immediately see their TWS start to drop.

I have experienced this myself, and the method described in that thread does in fact work for eliminating the inappropriate TWS. It will also need to be performed after every boot, and this problem seems to be affecting all variations of this current 2.1 build floating around, although not every single user has had it happen.

Damage 2.0r2 Mod Request

I have 2 cosmetic requests for this ROM:

1: Clear Widgets

2: Clear Lockscreen (I want my lockscreen wallpaper, time and date showing, just no gray bar)

thanks
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] MILH0U5E:
2 questions.

1. Do you have protected apps?

2. Do you use Exchange for a work email?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Tenny:
TrevE,

Is there a way you can do a light version w/o the HTC Dialer? I'm interested to see if Google Voice (3.2.0) would work properly then? Ideally I'd like a Sense w/o HTC Dialer as I think HTC dialer is the thing causing the problems.

I tried removing the HTC Dialer myself but never was successful at getting it to boot properly.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] askwhy:
1. Nope, not in market. (I have mine because I backed them up)

Even tried flashing back to rooted stock and they were still missing. We know that the build.prop is part of the issue, and I think posguy99 might be on to something when he describes it briefly here. If you can use that method, and see your protected apps, *and* download them right away, then they should 'stick', but there is no guarantee that any of these 2.1 ROMs with 'test keys' (as others have described them) will see this issue fully resolved until there is an official release.

2. Nope. I am fully on-board with Google these days. They could hold my entire life hostage if they wanted to. Yes, that is rather creepy *lights flicker -- internet cuts out momentarily -- the ground shakes* ...er...I don't mean that...I mean I completely welcome our new search-obsessed overlords and the coming age of Google.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] askwhy:
You should be able to 'adb pull [source] [destination]' just about anything (from /data/app, /data/app-private/, /system/app, etc) to a local folder on your PC then copy to a folder on your SD card for later re-installation. Assuming, that is, you are familiar with adb (plenty of info in this forum, if not).

I have in the past used free apps, Astro (which has an app backup tool), or a program called AppMonster (formerly called AppManager) to back up pretty much everything, and even some protected apps. Keep in mind that apps can be protected but not paid, paid but not protected, or of course both. An app like 'Barcode Scanner', for example, backed up fine for me (I think I originally sourced it from Market), but a free/protected radio app I used to use would never back up and I had to adb it.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ryan5943:
Thanks this worked for me. I had actually tried it already but I didn't know it reverted on a reboot so I never saw a difference.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] dmc971989:
is there a fix for the native wired tether (mobile network/internet sharing) yet?

I get an Error 67 when i try to connect... ive found a little bit of information about it but I cant figure out if upgrading my Prl will solve the problem or create it?

thanks in advance whoever can help me, i greatly dislike wifi tether and from my experience MNS is waaaay faster

Edit: i also had an issue while using google navigation today, i was traveling in the car with the phone plugged up to a car charger, when i left nav running (screen on all the time as well) it would drain the battery even while it was hooked up to the charger (similar to the way the older versions of Wifi Tether did)

P.s. i tried two different car chargers and both had the same effect

Loving this ROM

While its not perfect. Its better than my 1.56 even though i had it tweaked pretty sweetly. My ONLY issues currently is access to protected apps, which i have back most of what I needed, and my battery is dying quickly (even though all settings seem inline with expectation)... I am loving the new Rosie and all the wonderful 2.1 updates. A HUGE THANKS TO DAMAGE AND TREV... this will certainly keep me appeased until the April 9th formal release. BTW... when the formal release does come out... will I have to RUU to 1.56 and then follow Sprints upgrade path from there, or will I need to do something else as well to go back "legit"?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Joecrack305:
protected apps arent showing the ones i backed up are though, my main issue is battery life wow this **** swallows battery.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] askwhy:
Check if you are at 100% awake time. (Settings > About > Battery) If so, that is not how it should be, and while the exact cause/fix might be unknown, some (including myself) have had success by restoring a previous rom that worked, then performing another wipe (Data/Dalvik/Ext) and re-flash this one. For what it's worth, this issue doesn't seem limited to this rom.

EDIT: Oh yes, there is also the 'Time Without Signal' issue: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=651848 -- so check if you have around 50% TWS, and if you do, read that thread carefully, and then follow those instructions (takes about 30 seconds when you are used to it) each time after boot.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Joecrack305:
when i first flashed it over it was at 100% wake time for the first 2 hours, but after time it eventually started going down in percentage but the battery was still draining way to fast.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jonesdana:
Micro SD

What is the largest amount the Sprint Hero will accept? Will it only take Micro SD (up to 4GB) or will it take MicroSDHC (up to 16GB/32GB)?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Visionikz03:
yes u would have to RUU back to stock b/c ota won't recognize "rooted" software. But I advise u bypass the official sprint update cuz there is a good chance that HTC patched the root access in 2.1 and once u flash the official rom u won't have root access unless u reflash back to stock then re-root then upgrade to a rooted rom if u desire. But that's a hell of a lot of work. I would just pass on the official update and wait for devs to pull the last pieces of data that r still needed for rooted builds to build an absolutely 100% working rom(including the infamous trackball light lol). However thats just my 2 cents.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Visionikz03:
Technically the Hero was designed for SD cards not SDHC where HC means high capacity but as we all know 16GB cards work fine if formatted correctly. I haven't tried a 32GB but i've heard of some people having problems with the Hero recognizing the card.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jonesdana:
Good call!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jonesdana:
What is the correct formatting for it?

New Bootscreen

So I'm not sure if it's cool if I post this here, but I created a custom bootscreen specifically for DamageControl v2.

You can't flash this zip, but you can just remove all the files from /system/media/bootscreen/ and push the files from the zip into that folder.

EDIT:

Follow the steps in this post to make it work:

Applied the apps2sd (and lwp) zip someone posted here and it didn't work.Any suggestions? Theres no folder for it under system or sys,wherever it should be.anyone help out?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ElAguila:
I pulled a purchased protected app with adb. After flashing the new rom, I pushed it back and it worked until I reboot. Then I copied it to the sdcard and tried to install it but the install failed. I used the sdk installer and when I double clicked the apk in my pc the sdk installer asked if I wanted to install it. It copied it to the phone and the then the install started on the phone. It worked. It was still there after reboot. After 2 reboots my protected apps were showing up in the market again.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] bigronaldo:
Not really sure. If you removed the existing files from /system/media/bootscreen/ without any problems, I'm not sure why the old images still appear during boot.

I tried signing the zip and flashing it from the recovery as well as with Pre-Kitchen, but couldn't get it to work. The only way I could get it to work is using the steps I posted.

This is my first attempt at a bootscreen, so if anyone with more experience knows better, please let me know.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] pseudoremora:
I tried the steps you listed and even signed the .zip file and tried flashing it, however neither one worked. I still continue to the HTC bootscreen. I'm currently running the DC V2 ROM. I'll see what I figure out.

EDIT:: FIGURED IT OUT!! (This worked for me on Damage Control V2 ROM, yours might be different).

The reason your boot screen wasn't being recognized is because inside /system/media folder -- there are a couple files that shouldn't be there that are preventing the REAL path of the boot screen to load.

To make this boot screen load, do as follows:

**NANDROID BACK UP FIRST!**

Open command prompt

1.

adb remount

2.

adb shell

3.

cd /system/media

4.

ls

You'll see that there are more files than there should be in this folder, which is odd -- but whatever. The ones you want to delete are:

a) android_audio and b) bootanimation -- DON'T delete the audio folder, has ringtones.

To do this:

5.

rm android_audio and rm bootanimation

6.

reboot

Then it should work. By the way, good boot screen, creative.

Also, attached below is a signed update file, all you have to do is flash it. Enjoy.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jonesdana:
How do you do the sdk installer?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] bigronaldo:
Sweet! Thanks! I completely forgot that I deleted the other stuff first.

Yeah, I was listening to some Daft Punk earlier while playing with DC v2 and thought, "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" described my feelings about this ROM. haha

Anyway, enjoy!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jonesdana:
SDK Install

Okay, I looked up the syntax for the SDK install... np. Do I need the -l or -r "switches"? Also, do you have a protected app you can send me that i can try installing from SDK?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] pseudoremora:
No problem. I should make boot screen... in fact, I think I just might...:rolleyes:

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] pseudoremora:
adb push MarketEnabler_v3.0.8 /system/app/

For that to work though, you need to put Market Enaabler inside your androidsdk\tools folder.

Is there anyway to get just the statusbar mods?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] beerock:
somewhat off topic

I first apologize and have tried to search but I just lost with all that is going on lately.....LOL.. Thanks to everyone involved i have had a blast with all of the mods. I am currently happy with the and have fixed most all of my issues, currently running the full damagetreve and removed the htclockcreen.apk to get to the lockscreen i like(clear android with slide buttons) but now the buttons are in the wrong direction ,top and bottom instead of side to side when running DCv1.0......... can anyone get this fixed or is there a fix, i found a thread a few days back but lost track of it. I hope this is clear enough....

Thanks a bunch for all the hard work and awesome roms!!!!!!!!!!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] pseudoremora:
Can you be more clear -- is there something in particular you are wanting? (e.g. White taskbar, black taskbar with different icons, etc, etc)?

Pictures? and I would presume that this would have to be changed inside the .apk file.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Bphili:
im still having problems...chk out the attachment and let me know what im doing wrong

So what's up on getting apps2sd to work? Applied the zip that was posted but no go? Would really like to get this working
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] pseudoremora:

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] pseudoremora:
You have tried searching the other ROM's as well right? This problem has been experienced on more than one 2.1 ROM, searching other ROM's might find you the answer. Hint: Look at DarchLegend or Damage Control V2.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] dominion300:
Actually I've had a chance to play with it and I like it. The only thing I would like to change is the clear lock slide, I prefer to have the slide graffic. But to clarify, on the full mod download there is a modified black status bar with nice icons. I'd like to have just that status bar mod if I decided to go back to another ROM.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] pseudoremora:
Are you just wanting to reverse the positions of the Lock and Sound button? Also, to take a screenshot -- there's an app for that (Shoot Me), in the market.

Yea, for that I'm more than positive that would involve messing with .png files inside the Lockscreen.apk file.

How about the taskbar/statusbar in the full mod? Do you know an easy way to extract that taskbar?

The files you would have to edit are:

1. framework.res.apk

2. com.htc.resources.apk

http://ifile.it/nge8wmz/FullModTaskbar.zip

You'll want to open via 7zip/Winrar and look at the res/drawable folder. Look for drawable or drawable-land-** folders.

WOW.:eek: I know how edit files and what not, but that looks a little ridiculous, I don't know if I can be of much a help to you

VVM Troubles & Market

I wiped completely, cleared Caches and flashed the full complete ROM (Non-Lite)

VVM:

My VVM doesn't work but it worked on the original Damageles's 2.0r2

it is unable to download VVM and it has the unsent vVM activation message that can't be delivered. Any way to fix that without wiping?

Market:

I did the superuser fix and pushed the market enabler app via ADB but market still won't work?. After the ADB push is there a command that I missed like mount/unmount or something?

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jonesdana:
You can just push the Sprint_Core.apk (from Damageles's 2.0r2), reboot and VVM comes back. I still get the SMS with it, but at least VVM is working again. I also did the market enabler and my protected apps are not showing in the MarketPlace, but between backups and "googling" the web... i have everything i need for the moment.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] pipskicks:
Thank you Trev (wish I saved the scene, but wasn't fully set-up anyways)

After doing this I successfully flashed over Damage r2, I also plan to set up the bouncy menus, but that shouldn't be a problem.

I love everything about it so far, haven't set up all the patches, but I wanted a clear notification bar, the taskbar is so-so to me (don't like some icons) but with the taken out bloatware and the clear notification, this is awesome!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] TrevE:
Thanks man - I know not everyone diggs the icons so ive started putting up a few themes. check out the first post throughout the day ill be adding more. If anyone has any requests for a status bar theme to be ported from another rom point me at the old rom & ill take a shot at it.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] pipskicks:
One thing that's helpful is I hate wiping, and so far everything worked on top of Damage's ROM, if these are just theme add-ons that would be awesome (i.e. no wipe req.).

I just get thrown off on the phone image for sound/vibrate, but it's not that bad and definitely worth it for everything else.

I do have a question, the lockscreen looks a bit different, but I had a picture up there, do I clear that and then it's a clear lockscreen? I'm thinking I might keep the picture.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] PlagaDeRock:
Yeah the button presses instead of the solid green background the glass looking ones :) the other one I was talking about is I believe an icon set that shows up on screen when lets say your in contacts and you use the trackball to go right to groups it pops up on the screen. I think they're in contacts, alarms, peep, and a few more. But thats not really that big of a deal I'm mostly interested in the button presses lol.
