If you're getting the black SU request screen with nothing on it, chances are your USB debugging is disabled. Go to applications>dev>check debugging. Now try :D

I'll load up Spare Parts and see what I can find for you over the next couple days, TrevE.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] barnacles10:
I just reinstalled spare parts so I'll look out for anything suspicious. I was getting great battery life until I changed memory killer from more to stock. At least I started to notice a difference after that. Now 2 hours off the charger, with a bit of browsing, and I'm down to 70%. Maybe thats why, maybe not. Who knows.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ghuqu:
Thank you smw6180, I'm flashing it now.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mjpuczko:
ha, thanks! forgot about that one. sitll getting used to not using the stock ROM ;-)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] manlypowers:
ROM is fast and running nicely, I am very impressed so far... but it looks like I am still having some small problems.

First: I posted earlier about this but it has returned. Contacts (htc people) force closes randomly when entering or editing contact info. Also, contact images disappear in different messengers (handcent & htc) even though they appear in the contact's profile.

Second: Notification and sound problems. Besides the blinking LED, I am not getting any notification when sms/mms messages are received. If I have a different ring tone set for messages it doesn't play. It also will not vibrate. I've double checked all my sound options...:confused:

Coming from gumbo 1.5 but when I installed I wiped everything...data, dalvik, and ext...then formatted the SD and and repartitioned it.

I thought I had resolved this issue but it has returned and I am not sure why. Sometimes doing an dalvik wipe temporarily fixes the contacts issue but it has came back twice now.

Guess I will play with the mem settings a little and see what I can tweek. Anyone else have any suggestions on where to start?

You're welcome. Took me awhile to figure out myself

Yeah, I'm still having issues with the bannedapps GUI even though I flashed the fix that TrevE posted (now buried about 50 or so pages back).

I checked Sprintapps only and it didn't ban them. It banned Rosie so I went back to the GUI and Rosie had been mysteriously checked. I'm still not sure how "other" works. I'm just manually deleting or moving apps I don't want.

Other than that I am very pleased with this ROM!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] teedo757:
Ok I have a few questions and any help would be great.

First it seems my phone takes about 5 seconds before it starts to ring with this release, anyone else having an issue with this (using stock ringer)

Second is there a way to sync "My Current contacts" to facebook instead of syncing All my facebook contacts to my phone contact list.

and lastly what the heck is the difference between the hero's people contact list and the phone contact list......why are they different???

Thanks again

I went from damage control 2.0(3?) to 2.08 a couple of days ago. AMAZING battery life and most things are running very smooth. My only issues have been with the dcupdater (does nothing, but I keep reading that damage's server is down alot) and apps 2sd just refuses to work for me. Minor widget glitches, but nothing horrible. Thank you so much damage and friends for your great work and if anyone can help me fix my minor problems that would be awesome.

I wasnt aware of a fix, I havent been following this thread very close. Banned apps is not working for me, I just moved all the ones I wanted banned into the banned apps folder manually, including launcher as I have fallen for helix :D. Had 1 random reboot earlier but that was before I moved any banned apps so we'll see if it happens again.

Also, after enabling JIT phone is awake 100%.

Aside from that... WOW.. what else can I say? This phone is faster than it has ever been.

Need more information. Why can't you flash it? Does it give an error? What happens when you try?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bielinsk:
Wipe, flash, power off phone before reboot, remove SD card, reboot.

If that works, the problem is your sd card.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jUgGsY:
Still getting Audio loss bug on this. Flashing AudioFixEris. Thats worked flawlessly for me.

EDIT : Forgot that "audiofixeris" is incompatible with DConfig. :(

Anybody have an audiofix they flashed that worked successfully with DC2.08?

There seems to be some issue with Google Maps ..... once you open it, it keeps drowning the battery even after you close it and kill it!!!! Any idea how to stop this happening?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mas3773:
I just wanted to say I bought my hero from Sprint on the day it released. I've been on the fence about flashing a ROM, but I finally decided to give it a shot last night and wanted to say THANK YOU. This is exactly how the phone should be.

Excellent work.

I falshed this rom and its stuck on the HTC screen!! I wiped .

How long was it stuck there? First boot can take up to 20 minutes (mine was 15, my wife took 18).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gottria:
Little Problem. Stuck at HTC Screen

Flashed to 2.08 the day it came out and has been running great. Restarted the phone at HTC screen. Let it sit for about 30 minutes and still there. Screw it, restored all factory settings in recovery mode, re flashed 2.08 and still hung at HTC screen. Hmm now what?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dbroadus2007:
HELP

its only been like 4 minutes lol :/ so i should wait at least 20 minutes or so.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] heroid007:
If you using a2sd on ext2, then chances are that the partition is corrupted!! You may need to reformat, of course you will lose all the apps, and flash it again..... this suggestions is assuming you wiped dalvik cache and sd card ext partition, tried to fix the ext partion and reset to factory default. If it is ext2 partition, first upgrade to ext3 and you shouldn't have issues in the future!! (not my own wisdom just trying to help from the help I got)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] smw6180:
Yeah, I would.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] heroid007:
I would say connect to computer, go to adb shell and execute logcat soon after phone starts booting, you might catch the bug! That's how I learned about issue with my phone when it got stuck in HTC screen. My ext partition was corrupted! Good luck!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] subcypher:
I'm getting pretty much the same thing at this point. I guess this is saying that the only time I have a battery drain is when I'm using the phone.

I have GPS turned off
[Hero CDMA Android Development] subcypher:
I just turned on GPS, Maps and Latitude. I let them run for a short while and then turned them all off. Battery history shows it at 13% and holding since turning it off. So it used a LOT of my battery, but it hasn't used any since I told it to stop. What else are you doing that I'm not? Directions? Navigation?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TrevE:
Guys with problems with google maps have you updated to latest market version?

Menu about hould say 4.1.1
[Hero CDMA Android Development] subcypher:
From the searching I did, it appears to be related to weather and/or Facebook. Try going into Settings > Accounts & Sync. Either turn off sync with Facebook and turn it back on, or go further and remove the Facebook account and put it back in. It might shake something loose.

Also, do you have any weather widgets running?

I did not wipe I just upgraded from 2.07
[Hero CDMA Android Development] subcypher:
You can't reboot your phone and then check it. It doesn't work like that because your phone has been awake since you booted it. Turn your phone on, put it down, go take a crap, wash your hands, make a sandwich, watch a movie, read a book and then check your awake time. You have to give your time phone to chill while being turned on to see a difference between up time and awake time.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oohoy:
been having sound issue since ver 2.05...after a long phone call, my phone tend to lose sound. i have to reboot the phone to get the sound back.

is it just me or is this a bug ?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TrevE:
Srry about the recent dcupdater downtime everyone, damage and i have been having a hellofa time trying to keep up with the amount of load you guys are putting on the server :) Looks like everyone loves DCUpdater which is a good thing, we just need to take our backend up a notch now. We have (hopefully) fixed an issue giving us better uptime and are looking into throwing more servers on it. The amount of bandwidth were using is not cheap so were doing the best we can with little resources.

So dcupdaters back online now, ill be stickin up a patched audio kernel in the experimental updates section for those of you that may need it along with a few new themes shortly.

New release is starting to shape up well, start getting excited
[Hero CDMA Android Development] woofers1803:
Search the forums. There's been a few different rounds of fixes.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] teedo757:
Ok well before I rebooted I had about a 1:45 awake to 5 hours of up time and my battery was 100% charged at 8:30am, its almost 5:00pm and its almost dead.....something is not right.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] subcypher:
Then it's not your awake/up ratio that isn't right. During that 1:45, what were you doing with your phone? Talking, texting, surfing, navigation, are your GPS, WiFi and Bluetooth turned on, do you have widgets updating in the background, etc?

Turn off GPS, WiFi and Bt unless you're using them. Set widgets to update at reasonable intervals, not every 3 minutes. Turn of FriendStream, which sounds like it's killing batteries single-handedly.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oohoy:
i figured that wer're in ver 2.08, any known bugs before should have been fixed by now with current version
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TrevE:
Everyone thats getting crappy battery, have you tried calibrating the battery? When you wiped did you wipe battery stats as well? Maybe this is part of the problem if you do NOT see anything chewing batery up in spare parts.

From Cyanogen:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mjpuczko:
I'm going to try this tomorrow. i need to fully charge tonight.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TrevE:
by the sounds of it we need to be careful not to wipe battery stats unless the battery is FULL. Im guessing if we wiped it half way the gauge might think thats full
[Hero CDMA Android Development] techwerkz:
Any reason why my hosts file doesn't seem to work? I made some changes to it, and have verified that the changes stick to the file after reboot ... but the changes never seem to work in the browser, or other apps.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] riggsandroid:
Definitely looking forward to new releases. Getting excited because the official 2.1 is close and hopefully we'll get some nice cooked ROMs off that!

Will try the battery fixes you mention and will update. I am at 95% after the light is green for 5 minutes, I'll plan on letting it die tonight. Plan on using it for a 45 minute run tonight, with CardioTrainer, while listening to music....lets see if it can keep up....haha....

Also plan on installing my upgraded microSD tonight when I get home! :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] teedo757:
GPS WIFI and BT all off. I was not using my phone much so I thought my awake time was a little high but it may have just been my lack of attention. I do have friendstream up so I will remove that also and reset my battery status after a full charge.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] icm714:
well im almost over this rom i love damageless and treve but today i was onthe phone with my pops and the phone froze and rebooted in the middle of the convo, sent a bug report and not even 3 mins later same thing happen after i called my dad back almost smashed my phone on a car lift, any fix for this yet or what i dnt wanna go to another rom but these reboots are killing my battery and patiences
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TrevE:
what do you have moved to sd card? really sounds like its not keepng up as it should be. Stuff like dalvik & swapping on the SD especially will cause that behavior on slower cards
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TrevE:
That will be a fun day once we get our hands on a sprint build, we will have a new version up shortly after on dcupdater you can be sure:)

Let me know on the microsd & battery fixes curious how they stand the stress test :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nebenezer:
So I just did some benchmarking.

JIT enabled, apps and dalvik on sd (8g c4 sandisk), no swap

Out of 10 runs:

Linpack - 9 were between 3.38 and 3.52mflops, one was 2.8

Benchmark pi - every one was between 9700ms and 10400ms

Not bad :)

I was surprised though when the highest neocore result was 22.1fps... lowest was 19.8fps

No progress on getting the phone to sleep :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
Here's a suggestion for those of you having wake locks and bad battery.

Try putting your memkill settings to stock for a day, or most of a day, let all the memory intensive HTC (crap) apps get their sync on then, set memkill to more agressive so it might kill google maps when it goes to the background.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nebenezer:
I've removed almost all of the crap ware, even facebook, and I've had my memkill at stock most of the afternoon.

I've lost 8% battery in the last ten minutes

Next move is trying the battery calibration...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TrevE:
For the 100% jit wake Can you run

adb remount

adb shell

top -t -n 1 >>/sdcard/log4treve.txt

exit

adb pull /sdcard/log4treve.txt .

and send me that? Just curious if anything obvious shows u

[Hero CDMA Android Development] vardyr:
Excellent work, both of you!

My only issues so far are trivial:

Whenever someone ends a call before I do, my phone tells me the call was lost. This is trivial and appears to cause no real issues.

Clean up your editor's backup files. ;) This is obviously incredibly trivial, but worth noting.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] looneylu:
how do you calibrate the battery?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nbahsan:
From Cynagog:

Battery recalibration

If you're experiencing higher than normal battery drain, try the following:

1. Charge the phone to full battery; power off and let it keep charging until the light is green.

2. Boot to recovery mode and go to console (or adb shell) and type:

mount -a

rm /data/system/batterystats.bin

1. Reboot the phone and use it normally, but don't charge until it shuts off.

2. Recharge the phone completely and then use as you normally would.

Note: Newer Amon_Ra recoveries have an option to delete the battery stats, do this in place of the console commands above, but charge/discharge as stated.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mjpuczko:
i'd much rather try the calibration than reinstalling a different rom & downloading apps/etc!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] someonenewhere:
can't figure out DConfig ... it reboots the phone and it reboots it again.....HELP!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pipefitter:
Please help. Partitioning but nothing happens??

I have been through thousands of posts, so please don't flame me for the following questions:) I have been running DamageControl 2.06 and 2.08 without partitioning my sd card. Got a new 8GB class 6 Transcend card and copied everything to it. No problems, but my phone wasn't any faster. My internal storage is down to 40MB, so I decided to partition. I booted in recovery mode and partitioned my card, toggled mass storage, copied my backup to the card and rebooted. My internal storage remained the same. Am I omitting something in accomplishing my goal? I thought this ROM automatically moved the apps to the SD card. My total space on my card is now 7.09GB so I am assuming that I do have partitions. What am I doing wrong?

Any help is greatly appreciated!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] celith:
Have you gone into DConfig and made sure both "Enable A2SD" and "Move Apps to SD" (and optionally, Move Dalvik to SD, not a bad idea with a class 6 card) are checked? If so, try unchecking them, rechecking and reboot to see if you have any better luck. My only guess is maybe the script disabled A2SD when it didn't find an EXT partition after the first boot.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] celith:
What did you change in DConfig? Enable JIT? Banned apps? Providing more information about exactly what happened will get more helpful answers.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] someonenewhere:
i did enable JIT and unchecked everything on banned apps ........

i'm doing a nandroid restore right now,....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] liquidtenmillion:
You can't use HTC sense with JIT enabled...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] celith:
JIT and sense don't play nice with each other. After restoring, you'll need to decide which one is more important to you. If you want JIT, you'll need to have sense banned (and possibly others, not sure cause I haven't used JIT).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] someonenewhere:
ahhh okay ...

do I have to do something to my sd card in order to move apps to sd???
[Hero CDMA Android Development] celith:
Needs to be partitioned with (at minimum) an EXT partition (defaults to 512 meg). It defaults to ext2, though some people will tell you that ext3 is better. Depending on the speed of your card, you might or might not want a swap partition as well.

Important note: partitioning your SD card will erase everything on it, so back it up first.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] techwerkz:
The hosts file edit works when I tether, just not with my internal apps. Is this normal?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] posguy99:
Charging with... what? The Sprint leak has an apparent problem with correctly identifying the difference between a USB-based *charger* and being plugged into a USB *port*. You can often run down the battery faster than it will charge because it thinks the former is the latter and sets the charge to such a slow trickle.

A USB-based charger would be your normal wall-wart which has a USB-A connector rather than an integrated cable. You plug a normal USB-A/mini cable into it and into the phone. Think Apple USB charger.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] barnacles10:
What kind of changes can I really expect enabling JIT, if you or anyone else has.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] celith:
No sense interface, obviously. The biggest draw of JIT is speed. Benchmarks show it making the device significantly faster. Pretty sure it was TrevE who posted some benchmarks showing the difference in JIT vs. non-JIT as well as the effect of different swap settings. Search his posts in the thread and you should find them.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] smstutler:
Well besides a gain by using a trimmed down home setup, Sense is a little bit of a hog, but has advantages, you may also gain 40-50% increase in speed. To be honest I have done both and the difference isn't that great to me. Now when there is a final 2.1 release and cam works, I will go to the OC and maybe kill Sense. Dont know though.
