what version of wifi tether works with this and where could i get it?? thank-you

**DAMAGE UR ROMS ARE AMAZING**
[Hero CDMA Android Development] beyondinferno:
EVERYONE NEEDS TO CHILL OUT!

That being said, I'm sure damage is working his ass off on the next release instead of working out these bugs on a case by case basis.

Also, I'm getting really tired of people *****ing about it not being 100%. I spend the time reading the threads BEFORE I flash a rom to my phone and I recommend everyone else do the same. These Devs are not superheros, they are real people with real limitations that can't spend every waking moment fixing issues on 500 phones.

So to sum it up,

DON'T ***** ABOUT THINGS NOT WORKING WHEN THEY ARE WELL DOCUMENTED FROM PAGE 1.

My 2 cents.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] beyondinferno:
several.

use the search function to find htcfacebook.apk in this thread
[Hero CDMA Android Development] illogic6:
I remember that we've fixed protected apps not showing in the past when our old cooked up 2.1 ROMs caused us this issue by flashing AOSP 1.6 and signing in to the market then downloading a protected app.

Anyone tried this and then flashed directly to 2.0r2? I may try this when I get home.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] djR3Z:
I can't get it to work. After running "busybox --install /system/xbin" I get a lot of outputs ending with "Invalid cross-device link" and from "mkdir /system/sd" and "a2sd" i get "/sbin/sh: a2sd: not found"

Not sure whats up. Ideas?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MILH0U5E:
My process...

Here is what I have done on the protected apps issue, step by step and results...

1. Restore my 'Stock Root'.

2. ##786#, then my MSL, then that process wipes and restarts phone.

3. Update PRL and Profile.

4. install Root Manager (paid Protected), Googles, ShopSavy, appInstaller, Pandora, and MyBackUp from market.

5. Run MyBackUp and back up all apps listed above.

6. Use Root Manager to get into Recovery, then Nandroid backup this setting (Stock-Root).

7. Go back in Recovery and RESTORE DC1.1Beta6.

8. Reboot and check that PRI is still 1.70 and Restore the apps listed above (if needed) with MyBackUp.

9. Get into Recovery and Nandroid backup this current setting (DC1.1B6).

10. Wipe phone in Recovery.

11. Flash the zip of a new 2.1 Damage ROM (I did DamageRegaw)

12. Reboot device.

13. Log into Google and Facebook (there is no option for Exchange in this ROM, cause he accidently left out the mail.apk).

14. Let Google and FB synch, then turn the phone off, then on.

15. Phone boots back up with 'Sprint' on the lock screen and no protected software in market (Root Manager, Goggles, ShopSavvy).

16. Installed MyBackUp to restore my apps from #4

17. MyBackUp ran, and no error messages when getting to Root Manager, Goggles, and ShopSavvy.

18. Rebooted phone with QuickBoot (preinstalled on ROM)

19. Goggles opened, ShopSavvy opened, but Root Manager disappeared (Paid app).

20. Ran MyBackUp again and selected Root Manager, once again no errors. Turned phone off and then on to reset. NO Root manager, but there is an icon of a .apk for it in my 'All Programs'

21. VERY WEIRD... DEVS PLEASE CHYME IN... I used AppInstaller to try to install the .apk of Root Manager that is on my card from the backup. AppInstaller installed the program, but when I chose open, the word PIRATE displayed on screen, and then AppInstaller came back up.

22. Used AppInstaller to install mail.apk for my exchange email/contacts, installed QuickOffice.apk, and YouTube.apk all with no errors.

23. My exchange emails/contacts synced and phone is complete with exception of Root Manager.

Now, I did all this without Nandroid backing up this setting (DamageRegaw). And got some of my protected apps back, just not the one I paid for...

Going to try to do a Nandroid Backup of this ROM, restore my D1.1B6 with Root Manager, then Restore this one to see if that brings back Root Manager.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rquinn19:
Did you read the first post? Especially the part about no bugs...100% working?

I don't see many people *****ing as much as just asking questions.

Chillout, this isn't Damage's first rom and he knows how it goes. Some people will never be happy, but most are even if we are asking for fixes for certain problems. We aren't necessarily asking the OP.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mthanded:
Is the general xda rules "read all 270 pages of the thread to find your answer" . People seem to get really upset when bugs are called out. Think full disclosure is the best policy on issues like this. Every bug should be put in the OP under a bug section or issue log. This should be a mandated policy or the second post in a page should be a wiki entry similar to how slickdeals does it. This way people can add bug information on there own.

You always take the risk when you want to be the first to release a rom off of a given code base. Additionally a user always take a risk when running "word of mouth" tested code. Full disclosure is the best way to go. Just add a bug section to the OP outlining the bugs. A lot less *****ing will occur.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] illogic6:
Check to see if Root Manager installs to an "app" folder rather than "app-protected" -- Protected apps from the market will install to an "app-private" folder. Protected apps installed with an apk on your sdcard will install to an "app" folder. Pretty sure this is how this program knows you installed through a different method... That's my guess.

x2
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
I plan on documenting all of the bugs when I get time. You are assuming that I am just sitting around wondering what to do next which is not the case at all. I'm not trying to hide any bugs or anything like that, that's a ridiculous assumption.

Give me a little time. You can't have everything all at once. Be a little patient.

If you have a bug, it is very easy to search. You don't need to read all the pages. All bugs don't apply to everyone as I have seen. And I have learned very quickly that I can't please everyone. I really honestly tried, but I can't.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mthanded:
This is not for you to update in particular. Do mods have the ability to update the OP. A wiki editable page may be a better solution if you are too swamped to update it. I know xda has a wiki.Can pages be created by anyone? If so you could just link that page in the OP and then you don't have to do it yourself.

Edit:nice stealth edit.

I am not attacking you but this is really just a suggestion. In my design projects we have an issue log and anyone can add to it. Just makes the process easier. You in particular don't have to add to it.

Additionally, not claiming you are hiding bugs. If you knew about these bugs at release time I am assuming you would have mentioned that in the OP. They just slipped through the cracks which is fair enough.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] illogic6:
Word. Epic ROMs like this should get a wiki assigned.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MILH0U5E:
How would I do this? Is there a way to fix it?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 151jcolon:
for people giving complain, if you dont want bugs or you dont want to help to fix the bugs, this rom is for you...http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=103776....damageless is working hard for us.... thanks papi
[Hero CDMA Android Development] illogic6:
I suppose you could attempt to move the apk to an "app-protected" folder. I'm currently at work, so I can't test out myself.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Konikub:
Thanks Damage! Flashed it and all seems awesome so far, and as you described :)

....now we need the goodies to add to this, like the android keyborad with voice, Droid Rosie, Black Dialer, and fade in/out screen transistions :)

I'll test a few from the previous DC1 and see what's currently working or not!

Thanks again Brotherman...

Kudos!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PlagaDeRock:
I'm gonna guess most wont work cause its a whole new framework again lol. But with any luck hopefully this is the sprint framework pretty much everything will be based on from here on out. So thats good news at least no more trying to find ported versions of our favorite flavors of mods and themes. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] subliminalurge:
Yeah, it most likely is permissions. I just don't have time to pin it down right now. If nobody's figured it out when I get back from running my errands I'll start digging into it.

Anyone know if there's a full bash port that'll run on the Hero? I do all my Linux work on big servers, busybox drives me freakin' insane!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kelvala:
Konikub- any chance of the Aloysius touch? :D

I am still running your version and just love, well, all of it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Konikub:
Yeah, I just thought the very same thing before I went ahead and flashed a slew of stuff that would most likely not work, and potentially brick my phone.

I shall sit back....and wait for the intelligentsia to work their magic :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ElAguila:
Fresh has the superuser as a flashable zip that would probably work with this build.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PlagaDeRock:
Lol, your fine. I've done that before too trying to get a theme I wanted really badly or even just getting lost in all the different frameworks out there and what was working with what. No worries if it doesn't go over well just reflash the rom update.zip and you shouldn't loose anything since its still got the right framework you'll just get all your stock lockscreen taskbar ect back. No need to wipe or anything like that and shouldn't have to worry about a brick.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Konikub:
That's awesome to hear! I always make my ROM's including the 2.1's look like they've been touched by Aloysius. After all is said and done...(was waiting until the official release of 2.1 - but it looks like it's already here)..I might put out an "Aloysius Theme"

My current DC 1.0 has an Aloysius Theme...but it takes five seperate flashes to achive this, lol. I plan on creating a "one flash" ROM based on an OFFICIAL 2.1 with this theme. I could send you one if you'd like :)

Let me know either way!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PlagaDeRock:
http://link.geekfor.me/fresh20csu

If anyone wants to try it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tyrnight:
DC v1.0 worked smoother and faster than this one.. there is a lag and things jitter about, like scrolling. Swype works, but lags.. I did a fresh wipe install..

Anyone experience the same issue?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] toastcfh:
u mind sharing the ruu or oficial signed zip damange?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] schizopunk:
Once apps2sd is working I will hop right on board with this ROM. Unfortunately I can't until then cause I use too many apps that I don't have enough space.

Does anyone know how to get apps2sd working in the mean time by chance actually? I love the ROM regardless, it just sucked when I ran out of space. Sorry for the n00b question.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] illogic6:
Anyone see how livewallpapers work on this build? Please tell me nexusmod works...

Also... protected apps don't seem to be showing... can't see cachemate in the market.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sporkman:
Idk the roms running great here no lag at all
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kelvala:
*drool* - you rock! Sure, send me a PM :)

When I loaded your ROM, I had tried 3 others, I was like..."Now this is how I would want mine to look..lol" Glad that you didn't give up, you have some really nice "final touch"talents. Props to Devs too!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Konikub:
I know...I've played around with different apk frameworks...and found MANY FC when booted up...lol. I do know, and realize that it's crazy hard to brick your phone.

I love playing with ROMS and creating my own themes...but I'm just waiting for the right time (officail 2.1 release time)....and it's looking very much like it's knocking on my door, lol.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pwc realtor:
Great ROM. Unfortunately can't use it due to the non-funcitonal WiFi (have to usean Airave in the house so need WiFi to counteract lack of 3G)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rogerbean101:
does live wallpapers work on this rom?!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ZiCoN:
/me is looking at his GSM Hero... crying.. just a littlebit... Congrats on this though :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PlagaDeRock:
@Konikub

:) Hopefully this is it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mthanded:
Its sad that when you give constructive criticism around here its always taken so personally. Sorry man I cant spend time working on fixing these bugs. I messed around with the alarm problem yesterday and managed to get it working. Currently I am a graduate student(embedded systems security/safety) working towards my PhD. When I get some free time I would love to do some android development(they actually use G1s for the real time OS class here). My tone is not condescending but if you want to take it as such then go ahead. I just suggested a wiki page. With this in place, people can update without the need for the OP. This takes some load off of damage's shoulders and will overall make bug finding/fixing easier. No need to wade through 260 pages of content. Just my 2 cents
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MILH0U5E:
I have EStrongs File explorer, when I go into System/Apps I don't see the App listed in that folder. Where else would I look?

EDIT:

I found the com.bg.rootmgrp.apk in the MyBackUp software folder... zipped. I unziped and it went into a folder with the date of my backup. Where would I move this too?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] josh_131:
First off, GREAT ROM! I am new to this whole rooting process, fooled around with windows ROM's years ago but this seems to be quite different. I am trying to fix a few things.

Anything on alarms?

To fix the facebook thing can I just swap out the files in the update.zip when I am doing the DC 1 flash to fix the market issue? and then just delete the htcfacebook from the DC2 when I flash it? I am a little confused on this process. Will I mess things up by doing it this way?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] frazmanw:
Thats awsome!!! LOL
[Hero CDMA Android Development] illogic6:
/data/app or maybe /sd/data/app... depending what you're booted into and how apps2sd is set up
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jakejm79:
Did you setup an email account, when you do it defaults the notifications for email to not vibrate, but that also effects SMS. Go into you email app, click menu>more>settings>notification settings>check vibrate.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MILH0U5E:
The file is labeled 'com.bg.rootmgrp.apk'

I tried to copy it from the folder I found it, to the Apps folder... but no bueno. Wonder if I have to move it via a different method.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rquinn19:
I agree completely. If anything we are looking for a way to help out the OP.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] illogic6:
You could also try to install via ADB. Probably won't do anything different, but it might be worth a shot. Shoot me a PM if I can be of anymore assistance... don't want to bloat this thread anymore than it already is. :p

I'd just like to re-iterate how much I am enjoying this ROM and how much I appreciate damage's work. :cool:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wcgbmd:
All current users please check this thread if your having problems with EVDO.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
That's actually my father's site and he uses X-Cart, but I'll check it out and let him know.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jeb0921:
I agree 100%. You will never please everyone. Even if there were no bugs at all, you would still get people complaining about something. A missing feature or app.

The majority of us really do appreciate what you are doing and the hard work that goes into it. Just ignore the crap and have faith that they are only a few. Most are thankful. I know I get annoyed so bad seeing the same questions and comments over and over again. I have read every post and followed along as things advance to the next stage, and actually try out the fixes as they come. And if I don't know were to find something, I actually do a search for it. Amazing, I almost always find it right away...

Keep it up Damageless, We really are behind you.

:D:D:D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Tipharet:
If I were him I would stop deving period. There are some ungrateful, inconsiderate and selfish assholes around here.

You guys get all tied up in semantics of the front page. I dont know bout you, but I myself would prefer devs put time in the ROMS than the damn first page.

I swear, most of you guys are just ****ing crazy and do not deserve a damn thing. Lets chase off all the devs at the peak time of the hero community really starting to get some where.

morons.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pseudoremora:
I ****ing hate you.... JK:D, I think you're absolutely right. Some people are extremely impatient and don't care to try help the community at all and also want instant gratification -- which they won't get, because ROMS are always a work in progress. Can't please everyone.

People should be thankful of all the work all the DEV's have done so far and continue to do. I shall be joining you soon, my brothers...:D Hopefully after this week.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] derekstory:
Can we please stay on the original topic. Its hard enough to keep up with all the fixes and work arounds when you are looking at 2600 post and 260 pages.

Thanks a bunch
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pseudoremora:
Hard? What? IF there is a certain problem you are having, the search function can SEARCH inside the thread itself (for fixes and work arounds), it's extremely useful.

You're welcome a bunch.:rolleyes: And I was just replying to the topic above, that's all.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] askwhy:
Damage likes what he is doing or he wouldn't be here. If a few negative comments were going to chase him off, he would be gone already.

As for your view on your XDA peers, you may be right that there are *some* of those types, but there are also those with a perfectly reasonable point of view who can be at the same time appreciative, respectful, and questioning of the presentation.

It seems that anyone who has anything but praise or plain bug reporting to offer in this thread is not only unwelcome, but apparently of worthless opinion. Way to be a sycophant -- and I am not referring to any one person. Every single time someone questions the *obvious* confusion that could be cleared up by a few paragraphs of text on page one, just like in nearly every well-made [ROM] thread posted here at XDA or anywhere else, every time, it's met with ridicule.

Anyways, I consider myself one of the appreciative. I certainly strive to be respectful. Damage has done us all a service by sharing with the community the fruits of his labor and connections. The fact that the text of his thread confuses the heck out of people when it doesn't have to is just that, a fact. You don't have to hate people for pointing it out.

/sorry_for_rant (I get carried away)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] derekstory:
love ya, thanks for being so considerate
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pseudoremora:
Sorry for being off topic.:D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
I know there needs to be a better first post. I'm working on it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cirehawk:
It was not an attack at all. It was more of a defense of the devs, because to me the post came across as a veiled attacked against Damage (even though the poster attempted to clarify it). Consider it forgotten.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cirehawk:
lol I started to make this point in my original reply, but I figured THAT may come across as me attacking him/her.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] doojer:
On mine, I don't get any blinking notifications. I have it set to notify me with the green light on missed calls, texts, etc... but it does not.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cirehawk:
And that is the point I was making. I rooted my phone knowing that it voids the warranty with Sprint. So if something happens to it, it's my own fault and not Sprint's. I see it the same way here. If I am going to flash a ROM, I try to find out as much as I can because ultimately the blame is mine if I mess up the phone.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] watzone69:
I have been running this rom since the second damageless released it. Yes, there were some things that needed to be ironed out but right now my phone is 100% functional. If you want to know how I accomplished it, I'll tell you...

I USED THE SEARCH BUTTON!!

How many questions has anybody seen from me in this thread??? None. If I can do it, so can you if you will only take the time to look for it. The responsibility for fixing the problems on your phone are up to you, NOT damageless because it IS 100% if you want it to be!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jakejm79:
Mine works for missed calls, emails and voicemails just not SMS/MMS.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cirehawk:
With all due respect, the best way to help a lot of times is to do it. There is no shortage of people making helpful suggestions (that goes for most things). And many times people say THEY would do it if they had the time. Guess what, if you (not you literally) are that busy it stands to reason that others are as well. The WIKI page may be a fine idea, but someone has to actually do it. Making the suggestion is fine as well. I only made a comment because the tone of the comment I was replying to seemed more like whining than actual constructive criticism.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Austin3600:
This is my first post ever on these forums but I just wanted to say... Great ROM man, much respect to you :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] doojer:
I forgot to check emails. My email notification does work. Not texts or missed calls, though. No biggie for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mthanded:
I'll make the wiki page if people think it is valuable.

Like I said earlier. People want to get upset because I make a suggestion. Please dissect the tone of my earlier comment for me thanks.

Here it is

All I got was snarky comments in return. Never once did I bash Damage. I really love XDA for what its worth. Came here right after getting my htc mogul -> htc touch pro -> htc hero. You might not be able to detect my tone through the monitor but I am genuinely trying to help. If this is not how things work around here then I may be barking up the wrong tree.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] doojer:
If anyone who can see protected apps has a minute to download yelp and try to install it, I'd love to know if this is something on my end or not. Definitely not a priority! But, if you have a sec... I can see it and download it, but I get an error on install....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] joetemp75:
I tried it and it failed unknown error 17
[Hero CDMA Android Development] doojer:
^Thank you! That's what I get... just making sure it wasn't me. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] damageless:
I agree, we need to be constructive here and not criticize people for bugs. I think that most people get mad about people posting the bugs because 99% of the time it is something that can easily be fixed if you search the thread. I agree that it all should be documented on the front page, and I want to do that. I completely agree with you there. I am working on it right now.

My edit wasn't meant to be stealthy. I just reread it and revised. I do that a lot.

Anyways, I don't know much about the wiki pages. Feel free to create one.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jakejm79:
Same error that you get with USAA banking, tried pushing the apk, will load up, but force closes when you try to do anything.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bob2300nx:
Well you still came across that way. Maybe take a step back next time.
