Check in my signature, there is a link for a Vogue flashing guide. One of the posts, has the stock rom for Sprint (no need to relock it). Good luck!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] stephen240:
Does anyone have a zip for clear widgets (htc) for the 2.1 builds?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] VinceOB:
The only one ive done so far is the clock/weather one.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] stephen240:
Yeah before the 2.1 builds there was a zip for the 1.5 based roms with all the widgets cleared out. I may just do this myself once I download gimp.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] looneylu:
does that work on the legend build?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] VinceOB:
No. It ****ed it up when I tried it on the Legend. Different frameworks to work with...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] DanWalker:
I used the 1.5 version that Flipz put out a long time ago on my Fresh 2.0 and it works for me.

Hey all,

I'm a newbie in the Flashing side of things, but in under 2 weeks I have flashed every single ROM out there to my device, tried all of them. I can't get enough.

Current ROM runs great and does 95% of What I want it to do, if I never flash it again, I'll be happy with the device now, over stock. BUT yet I'm still itching for the next update to be released by the Chef.......... help LOL

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] smcb:
Something went wrong with my Tilt this weekend. The phone still works fine, but it won't read *any* memory card I put into it.

if I go to the Memory control panel, it shows no storage card.

However, if I go to the "About" control panel, it does properly show "expansion slot" in use or not in use as I insert or remove the memory cards.

I have reformatted one card, made no difference, run scandisk on the file systems on the cards, and all is fine. Tried a card from a friend's winmo phone and it doesnt work, and my card works fine in his phone.

Also tried re-flashing the rom (standard winMo 6.1) to no avail.

It definitely seems to be a hardware problem.

Any suggestions before I go out and buy a new phone?

And since I'm looking for a new phone, any suggestions where I can pick up a Tilt 2/Touch Pro 2 for a reasonable price (other than AT&T?)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Greeee:
Sorry to bring this dead post out again, but this weekend, I've had the same issue occur.

I have a 16GB Geniune Kingston SDHC, which has been used now since Xmas, with no problems!

Saturday night, I went to play some music off it, and Audio Manager reported no music, going into File Manager shows no SD Card.

So Sunday Morning, I checked the card in my PC, which is fine, copied the files off for safe measure, Formatted to Fat32, and reinserted the card > Nothing.

Tried another card (2 Gb Sandisk) also nothing.

Having used the above, I've only just gone into "About" and displays the Expansion slot as In Use.

Does anyone have any ideas? I can't live without my music!!!

Oh, and I have performed a Master Reset.

I'm using the Stock HTC Rom, which is wwe (should be in my sig).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] smcb:
i ended up ordering a new flex cable from a vendor on ebay - $22.

It is the cable that connects the display, to the lower half of the tilt, includes the nav button board, memory card board, etc.

Takes a bit of time to disassemble and install, but that solved the problem. The old cable was wearing out and breaking.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Greeee:
Damn. Shame I can't afford the cable, or have the confidence to do that to my phone!

Think I'd be best selling it as partially faulty now then...

Either that, or if someone's willing to repair it for me cheaply?

I'm about to start saving for a blackberry though, so may simply sell the HTC, which'll be a shame, as I love my phone.
[Desire General] hyuk_19:
Are there any applications for Android that work similarly to QuickGPS (downloads a small data file which allows you to lock onto a GPS satellite much faster)?

Had a look around and can't find anything.

Any help would be appreciated! :)
[Desire General] The_Stranger:
I haven't used the GPS very much yet, however, when I did use it, I got a fix quite quickly, so I personaly do not require a sort of quickGPS.
[Desire General] xdZKu7:
Essentially the phone does this already. However instead of downloading the file once and for all it might contact a server using your data connection to update it whenever you launch a GPS-application.

Hi!

I was just wondering if anyone would like to point me and others in the direction of some other useful threads to check out that relate to our Hero. (Not Superman, he's still GSM only)

For example, I've wondered if any subforums other than Hero CDMA in the HTC Hero Forums here on XDA have any useful info or downloads that are relevant. Also, I've been wondering the same thing about the general Android forums here on XDA.

I keep a CDMA Hero bookmark button on top of Firefox, but does anyone have any good suggestions of other sites or subforums/threads that I can add along with it and check about as much as I check Facebook, Gmail and Plentyoffish? Hahaha
[Hero CDMA General] azyouthinkeyeiz:

GSM Hero Themes/Apps Thread

Curious - is this thread useful at all to us, or will any themes and apps be useless since we're CDMA?

I already know (I think) that GSM themes won't work because they're probably designed for GSM ROMs, so all kinds of things won't be compatible. (Like trying to use a 1.5 theme on a 2.1 ROM)

Are things like widgets and clocks ROM and/or device specific? I'm on a widget hunt.

I'm new to using Helix and I'd love to find some widgets that compare to the awesome Sense widgets, particularly Sense's beautiful Messaging, Mail, Music, and Friendstream widgets.
[Hero CDMA General] azyouthinkeyeiz:
It's not that we care that there is a hundred threads that say the same thing, its that if there are 100 threads of the same topic, it in effect, makes our forum usage a terror, because navigation is almost doomed from the beginning in that situation..

And it is not going to be something that is always there, because with mods actually modding these threads on other forums that I frequent daily, *they are virtually non-existant...

For the "noob" users, they cannot find these answers efficiently because the forum is blasted with the same thing over and over... With different answers in each thread..

The only way to make the "noob's" life easier, is to format the forum in a efficient and knowledge ready way...

Which by letting noob's overrun your forum, is not possible... We are hateful because you are feeding an endless chain of questions, when it could be handled in a much more effective way, if it wasn't for people flaming people who are actually looking out for the forum....
[Hero CDMA General] subliminalurge:
Yeah, it's kinda bad here... It's like that on pretty much any technical forum, but things are really over the top on this one.

It's to the point now that when I do have a question I feel like I need to devote one short paragraph to asking the question, then tack on 5 more long paragraphs explaining that I already DID search, came up empty handed, searched again, explain which keywords I searched on, etc....

Surely there's a happy medium that can be found...
[Hero CDMA General] raynda:
Hey, I'm not trying to come off defensive to you in this reply because I appreciate your posts on here, but are you saying that I personally am feeding an endless chain of questions?

Also, maybe I'm wrong, but I think that the problem may be in people looking out for the forum too much, when the point of this whole XDA Developers Forum thing should be to look out for the fellow user. Like I said though, I may be wrong.

And I don't mean that it's perfectly cool to have hundreds of the same thread in here, I agree that is useless clutter. I just think that some threads that get posted do have potential for the good of the community, but they get squashed quickly by posters with bad attitudes, and then the OP in that thread and others who have the same thoughts and questions become too embarrassed or insulted/offended to post again. When that happens, someone who may have eventually provided something amazing to the community will either never get to that point, or will get there and just won't post it here because of the bad experience.

I'm sure that there are all kinds of amazing things that people have tweaked, developed, designed, and created, but they're never going to be publicly released for one reason or another. Let's not let the reason be that they were treated like they were stupid when they were finding their way on these forums. :)
[Hero CDMA General] raynda:
That's exactly what I'm talking about. People will get to the point that they just won't post anything when they have an idea or a question because there's no happy medium. And the worse it gets, the less progress we make as a whole.
[Hero CDMA General] azyouthinkeyeiz:
No not you specifically. Sorry that was an analogous "you".. And I totally agree.. But 95% of the ones get shot down immediately, deserve it, even though you might not think so, from the people with answers, you will know almost immediately if it merits further investigation. Wishful-thinking and impossible sometimes walk a very narrow line. Developers and end-users have entirely different mindsets.. That's never going to change.. But the end-users should have a more thorough understanding of what it is we do for you and *developers should be more compassionate "for the most part (there are alot of caring devs)..

Where this sub-forum was destroyed, was giving it sub-forum status and not its own separate forum, like every other HTC device.. Then, we would get a development sub-forum, themes forum, etc. The development is different than the GSM Hero, so why doesn't it deserve its own?

You will see, that with honest concerns and problems, I will go to the end of the world for you...

But, if you want something from me, (effort to help you) you must at least show some sort of effort to solve the issue, besides "NEW TOPIC< IS MY PHONE BRICKED?"
[Hero CDMA General] subliminalurge:
I can definitely see your point.

But this is where the happy medium needs to be found. I know I'm the exception rather than the rule on this point, but by the time I post asking for help, it's safe to say I've spent at least one day each both trying to figure out an answer on my own (and I'm fairly capable), and searching this forum, other forums, and google to see if anyone else has had and solved the same problem.

That's effort that isn't seen, but it's extremely frustrating to feel obligated to explain it all in detail in exchange for the privilege of asking a question.

Now, don't take this post the wrong way. There's absolutely nothing wrong with expecting people to do a little digging on their own before they come crying for help.

I just think this forum (as a whole, not you specifically) has gone a bit over the top with how much "proof" of that digging is required before someone can feel comfortable asking their question.

(And I'm not really even complaining, just offering my observations on a topic that was already brought up for discussion....)
[Hero CDMA General] azyouthinkeyeiz:
I get very sarcastic... But only because I think sarcasm is funny...

And you really don't have to explain it yourself *in every post.. Because most of us with a thorough background, can tell how much effort you put in, just by your question... (edit* Yourself is again analogous, not you)

For Example, the 2.1 thread this morning...

I opened it up, thinking to myself "Not again"...

But when I read and see that it was actually about A2DP, mindset about the thread changes, and I go into help mode... That invoked thought and development just from that post..

Now if I had opened it up, and it was a brand new "Can I change back to a rooted rom after the OTA update" question... I would have went into sarcasm mode... And I don't want to help that guy be lazy.. Why should we give him the benefit of spouting off verbatim what has been answered 1000 times before, just because he can't take the 20 mins to peruse over a couple threads??

I am all about the education of every single member of this forum, into all of the ways of Android... But its like what my papaw used to tell me, "You get what you put in."
[Hero CDMA General] azyouthinkeyeiz:
And to ray...

Download GMOB chat, from the market...

Go to the rooted users chat, and there is usually alot of good info there, you just have to sort of wade through some of it, since you only get to see like the 50 most recent posts.. So it takes a little more effort to find anything... Also the apps room is pretty cool...

I have found technorati.com is getting alot better...

androidfreeware.com is good for apps.
[Hero CDMA General] subliminalurge:
OK, now to take the completely opposite side....

I was just reading another topic and in 5 minutes I saw 3 different questions posted that had been answered ON THAT SAME PAGE!!!

The proper profanity has not yet been invented to describe people like that.
[Hero CDMA General] azyouthinkeyeiz:
See subliminal...

It's not that I don't wanna see those questions asked, I just want people to understand the nature of a forum, and alot* here do not...

If people read, before they start looking for answers, we would be alot better..

The issue is, that all of these people look to have a very limited understanding of Android, and just want a phone to use.. And this is not the forum for those.. Android-central, sprintusers.com, etc are more appropriate..

This forum is for development, not for chatting about the evo, or why your 1.5 is better than 2.1.. or how android is the iphone killer..

This forum is to bring ideas to our platform, and to build upon them... And to release mods and hacks..

Not for people to rant about how sprint sucks, and I want a nexus one.. ;)

Or to rant about how developers are stealing our donations....

It is to make our phone better, and with people feeding this nonsense, we are hindering the forum from where it should be...
[Hero CDMA General] subliminalurge:
But what if Sprint sucks, the Nexus One is a POS...

AND....

Why can't I get a Nexus One on Sprint?

:D

(I really do understand both sides of the issue. I just kinda agree that some on this forum are a bit quick on the draw with the "Use the search you ****in' noob!" gun....)
[Hero CDMA General] raynda:
Hey thanks, I'll check that out! By the way, after thinking about it today and catching up on this thread's replies, I think we're thinking on the same page.

It would be handy, I think, if we could get some extremely well written and dummy-proof How-To's stickied for the main page. I know there is already a sticky wicky for guides, but I remember still being a bit lost even having read them when I was new to the Hero. I wrote some extremely detailed step by step how-to's for the x51v over at htcgeeks, and though it might be my own vanity speaking, I think that it slowed down the constant repetitive questions. I'd volunteer to help out with this if we could get some Mod help to reorganize the stickies. I think we should have individual ones for...

- How To Setup an SD Card for A2SD

- How To Install Recovery and How To Use It (Nandroids, what they are, wipes, which ones to use for what, Fix UID's explanation, etc.)

- How To Flash a Custom ROM

- How To Flash a Custom Theme

- Troubleshooting PC Sync Issues

- How To Setup and Use ADB Shell with a list of ADB functions

I know we have this stuff now, but I remember it took a while to find all the info I needed to learn all these things when I was new to the Hero, and the current Guides sticky wasn't as helpful as it could have been. And I'm a pretty resourceful and intelligent guy who can search, read, and follow instructions! (Or at least I like to think so, lol)

Oh, and to make a preventative strike against hundreds of future bug reports on new ROMs, giant bold text on every page of every thread that says "WIPE DATA, DALVIK CACHE, AND SD EXT BEFORE FLASHING A DIFFERENT ROM!!!

:p

I hail from the Pre so I'm kind of new to Android so I'm still getting used to this thing.

I noticed though that I can't receive/send emails from my Exchange account while on Wifi only when on my work WiFi. I can browse the internet, receive/send from Gmail, use Google Talk, install from the Marketplace and so on. Just not send/receive from Exchange.

At work I get zero reception so I have no choice but to be on WiFi only, again this is my company WiFi oh and this worked fine on my Pre.

Thanks
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] djorijun:
Does anybody know? Do I have import a cert? anything would be helpful
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] CarbonKang:
does your work have a fire wall that is protecting information from coming in and/or out?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] subliminalurge:
That definitely needs to be checked.

Also... What do you have for server settings? An IP address or a hostname? If it's an IP address, is it one that can be routed to over the Internet? If it's a hostname, is it one that is resolved by public DNS servers?

There's a million different ways your admins could have your company email system set up. You're going to have to go into more detail to get this resolved.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] djorijun:
My job does have a firewall but I am able to use the WiFi for anything and everything except Exchange on the Hero. I even receive emails from Gmail with no issue.

My server settings are pretty simple, it is a hostname that can be routed over the internet, and yes it is resolved by public DNS servers.

As I mentioned before it works on my Pre and my iPhone currently. And again there is no reception in this dungeon so I'm stuck on WiFi only. If I go outside and get off the WiFi I get a slew of emails from EAS.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Lappie2010:
Does the Exchange work on every other Wi-Fi and 3G? It only doesnt work when your on your work Wi-Fi? Just trying to clarify.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] djorijun:
Sorry yes it works on 3G and any other WiFi besides work.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] subliminalurge:
OK, let's slow down and clarify....

Your exchange email works when you're not at work, but doesn't work when you are there?

Does it work from a laptop on wifi when you're at work?

Sounds like one possibility is the DHCP servers at work are giving the phone a bad DNS config....
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Lappie2010:
Ok, in that case, my GUESS is this.

Your internal network is named the same as your external network name.

In other words, you named the internal network mycompany.com as opposed to mycompany.local. Because of that, the DNS on your server thinks its the authority for that domain. If you look for mail.mycompany.com, it stops at the server and doesnt go outside. But your pointer for mail.mycompany.com resides on the ISP's DNS server.

Thats just a guess, and that would cause that issue on the internal network only.

EDIT: Computers and such inside the network wouldnt suffer the issue because Outlook is using the simple network name like MYSERVER or SERVER as opposed to the FQDN.

Did you make your network?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] djorijun:
Yes

Yes

hmm?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] subliminalurge:
Sounds perfectly plausible. Definitely the next thing to check.

Does Android let us specify the DNS server while still getting the rest of the IP config from DHCP? I seem to recall trying to set that and not being able to without specifying the full IP configuration (hate that...).
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] CarbonKang:
Why could he not connect off another laptop? using the conection off the laptop to go wirelessly to the wifi? I did this with an xbox 360 before. I dont see why i t wouldn't work with a phone ;)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] subliminalurge:
The actual device wasn't really the point of asking that. What I was getting at was whether or not the DHCP server on the work network was handing him a DNS server that would properly resolve the mail servers host name.....
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] CarbonKang:
well it seems it would considering 2 other phone work on his wifi... I'm thinking there is something with the phone its self that would need to be changed

Sent from my HERO200 using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Lappie2010:
The way to fix this is insert a pointer to the mail server FQDN in DNS on the server. Make an A record in DNS and point it to the IP.

I see this all the time with people that dont know how to make a server, they try www.mycompany.com and it wont work because they made the internal name the same as the external, if they dont host everything.

Anyway, I do believe this is a DNS issue, and it goes beyond the scope of the phone and this forum IMO.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] djorijun:
Wow that is a great guess, I did not make the network but I do have access to it.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] CarbonKang:
*face palm* he is correct. now I feel like a complete dumbbell ass.

Sent from my HERO200 using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] djorijun:
If I access the mail server internally it something like server01 and externally it would be mail.mycompany.com <- this is what we've used in the past to set up EAS and it has always worked.
