Im glad someone finally gets it, ive been preaching this for 2 days str8, this makes me happy. I can rest my head now. :D oh and lastly in the dconfig app you go into banned apps and select htclockscreen and sprint apps and once you restart the phone your clear lock screen will magically appear. peace out
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DominoDoug:
I think people need to get away from the whole app backup thing and just install their apps from scratch. If you go to market right away when you boot it will have your list of apps. Download them all at once; no back button, no clearing installed apps, just download them all then worry about the rest. It's a new rom so start from scratch.

On a side note: woke up this morning and had 2 fc's.

Rosie utility

DC Updater

Phone is still running fine though. I'm attributing it to my auto killer being set to strict. Any thoughts?

sorry for double post, stupid internet. FML
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
and once again another soul has caught on....lol......you should remove dcupdater manually thru adb shell, i always remove it, and are you overclocking it? or using JIT
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
I've always done this. The key is to do it right away as you state.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonyana:
Likewise

Likewise, always worked for me. The funny part is I can start with a totally blank new rom and configure everything the way I like it in my sleep at this point.

This rom updating is addictive, I don't know how many times I get things running perfectly and then cannot resist the temptation to change something.

I think we're all a little insane.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JB in AZ:
Can this also be done with root explorer? Or for some reason, is dcupdater different? Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xxxk15:
LOVE this rom its fast without overclocking.had lots of problems with apps not loading widgets not loading but other than that the rom is so smooth. LOVE IT, THANKS

Like a couple people said the key is to flash and flash again if something doesnt work

One question, is anyone having the problem with nandroid backups, when being restored they dont have the market??Would a nandroid+ext backup fix this??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cirehawk:
I appreciate your input, but I must say that it's not always a matter of people not "getting it". When I had my issue with 2.09.1 I had wiped everything (including dalvik and ext3). I was using straight Rosie (meaning I did not ban anything), and after a few hours of use my phone started to lag like crazy. The only difference I had from your setup is that I did not install a task manager, but I never ran one with 2.08.01 and didn't have lag issues. I decided to give 2.09.1 another try this morning, so we'll see how it goes.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] subcypher:
I see what you did there.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] notasimpleway:
Try AutoKiller with it set to 1536, 2048, 4096, 10240, 12800, 23040. I get my best results from that. If you have programs that give you updates and stuff, this is a good setting.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
all the apps you dont want to keep thats on system memory you can remove, i hate sprint apps, i usually take out alot of crap that i dont want. Using this can remove all unwanted apps, be careful when removing the system apps removing the wrong things cause cause problems. here is how you do it, make sure you have your phone plugged in with usb and on charge not mount. Follow these commands or you can just copy and paste them.

Open up a windows command box so you can adb shell.

cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools

adb shell

su

mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

cd /system/app

ls

now it will show you a list with all the apk's installed, to remove them you just put a rm in front of the apk and its gone,

ex- #rm Sprint_Nscar.apk oh and i think dcupdater is something like this DCUpdater.apk i think.

here is the link that teaches you also, i typed all this for nothing when i forgot i had this link bookmarked lmfao oh well

[Hero CDMA Android Development] cirehawk:
Yep, I made that mistake as well. Not only was market gone, but a lot of my apps (which I couldn't re-install because market was gone lol). You need to do a "nandroid+ext" backup if you are running apps2sd.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
aight man no doubt give it a shot, thats what were here for to help each other out bro. let me know how it goes, im running 3 days strong not a single force close yet me, i guess im just lucky. and you dont have to do a nandroid and ext backup, i never do i guess thats why i dont get force closes, i just go to market, hit download and get my apps again and wipe ext
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DominoDoug:
I'm overclocking. I flashed the 537 kernel and have it set to 710 with OC widget.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cirehawk:
It's all good man. Are you sure about the nandroid+ext backup? I only did a nandroid backup before my first flash of 2.09.1, and when I did a restore back to 2.08.1 everything was screwed up. All my market apps were missing as well as the market app itself. Also, I never got any force closes with 2.09.1. It just lagged. At any rate, I have it installed again now, so I'll see how it goes.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jcf304:
Well so far I seemed to have resolved any issues I had, for the life of me I cant get jit to run even though I have followed the steps in prior posts. Oddly the f1n1sher rom (also based on DC) can run jit without a problem, all you have to do is enable it from dconfig. Not sure what steps I'm missing when trying to implement it on here but no biggy the rest of this room is running fine. I think it may be due to the lockscreen. Does anyone have a link or post to a version of this lockscreen without the date and time showing? Figured since its a clear screen, why put the digital clock up if you can see the clock on the home screen anyway.

I know we beat this horse to death but the nandroid, FULL wipe, and installation of any rom I have tested always works.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] JB in AZ:
Thanks, I appreciate the extra effort!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] livinlifes2short:
maybe I should post this in its own thread I dunno, with apps2sd do we have to wipe it everytime we change roms?? I have a 16gb card with around 4-5gb of stuff and backing that up everytime I flash a rom is a total pain. So is there a easier way or is that how it has to be?? Thanks Just flashed the rom, coming from Fresh I have heard awesome things about this rom excited to try it out!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
you should try this one bro....and either auto detect freq or you can use this setcputxt just have it on the root of your sdcard, try setcpu and see if you like it. and 710max and 245min, im sure you know this damage kernel is a flashible zip in recovery, you have to try things to see if they work diff you know, well it up to you. but here you go. for some reason ocwidget has given me nothin but probs thats why i use setcpu.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DominoDoug:
Testing it out now.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fifedogg:
The problems I was having with 100% wake time was solved when I wipped my hero and reinstalled the rom. Everything is running flawless for me this time around.

I wipped the device, flashed 2.09.01 and then the OC kernel right after without rebooting the device 1st. When I first booted up it was a little slow but once rebooted again it worked out great. I didnt have any problems with my widgets or sense. Also I had 3g working right off the bat which I didnt before.

I also turned off Apps2SD. My device is working soo good now with incredible battery life (92%) with 5 hours of use...

No FC's or any other problems. I can't believe how well and fast my phone is now. Thanks DamageControl!

edit: I now have a problem when I recieve calls...I will get a force close on the phone app 1 out of 5 incoming calls. This was also happening the first time around when I installed 2.09.01. This is the only issue I have thus far. I have decided to go back to my nandroid backup of before I installed this rom. I hope this 1 issue can get worked out because this was the only thing messing up for me. Besides that I had this rom running flawless and super fast.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
Im gonna be honest with you and your prolly not gonna like what im about to say. You wanna know how many times in two years running diff phones and how many times ive actually had to flash a nandroid. Only once and that was when i had a tmobile g1, i have never had the need to flash a nandroid on my hero and i had it since it launched. ive only made two nandroids in my life. i swear. I guess ive never had the urge to flash nandroids because peolpe always complain how many issues they have with this and that, and ive never done anything that severe i guess. dont care much to get my phone back in a previous state it was in because that causes issues to, dont like to go backwards, id rather download a new zip and wipe everything and start all over again. thats why i never get force closes or missing markets and all that junk. and if its laggy you should follow my post above and give overclocking a try along with downloading a task manager it kills apps and saves battery.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] platinumrug:
I see people are saying stuff about the battery calibration thing, but I'm a noob, I went into recovery mode and couldn't find where to type the command. Can someone tell me how to do so?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fifedogg:
You can also remove the stock apps you dont want using Root Explorer directly on the phone. Worked great for me...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xxxk15:
THe same thing happened to me should i do both backups just in case??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DominoDoug:
@Dirkydirk23

Did the SetCPU switch over. I do like that it's more in depth than the OC widget and it's running just as smooth. I'll need to do a little more research into it to see exactly what the other functions are. Do I want to check Set on Boot?

Thanks again!

SIDE NOTE: Wireless Tether for Root has an update. Someone willing to try running it? =P
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
If you do a nandroid before you change anything. Then when you nandroid back, it should be the absolute same as before you changed anything. When you do a nandroid backup, it automatically wipes everything for you and restores your rom.

Im not new to it or dumb in anyway but I use nandroids all the time. Specially when im testing or trying something on top of my rom, and it goes wrong or trying a new rom, in case i dont like it, i can always go back to my old one. If you dont like using a very nice feature of the recovery, i guess have fun with that. Ill stick to not having to reset up everything from a fresh restart.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xxxk15:
well i tried to take the stock widget off my homscreen but everytime i do the htc force closes and it restarts my homescreen. does anyone know how to fix this??

NVM i just cleared the data on htc sense
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kingdazy:
agreed. when not testing roms for function, i actually like to use my phone for more than just a phone. I have quite a specific setup with apps/screens/settings/etc that I like to be able to return to if a rom doesn't fill my needs.

i <3 nandroid
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cirehawk:
Dirk, I set mine up this morning according to your guidelines. In fact, I did a little experiment. I set up my 2.08.1 configuration exactly the same (damage768, setcpu with text file on root of sd card, and task manager), and it flies. So far my 2.09.1 setup, while fast, doesn't seem QUITE as fast as the 2.08.1 setup. I'm basing this on scrolling through my home screens. 2.08.1 is buttery smooth while 2.09.1 has an occasional choppiness (not really lag and more so when I first wake the phone) to it. It doesn't take long to smooth out though. I'll put it through it's paces today though and report my findings.

A couple questions for you. Do you have setcpu set to start on boot? Also, do you keep the Task manager notification in the taskbar.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
yes i use task manager by apollo software, you can turn off the notification in the task bar it will sitll kill apps in background, and i also set my setcpu on boot so i dont have mess with it, another note in task manager while setcpu is running, you can long press it to ignore the process so you wont kill it. and try going into dconfig and banning htc lockscreen to get the clear one its kinda faster.

And just10o your right its a great feature but i have no use for it, it takes me 5 min to set up my phone, not a big deal i guess. i dont go testing crazy stuff im just a rom whore. but your work is surely greatly appreciated youve helped me many times also just following your post here and there for help to cause ur the man. thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] overthinkingme:
Sorry for the newbie question, does this run based on Android 1.5 or 2.1?

Thank you

Nvm, saw the "2.27.651.5" mention..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
EDIT, just saw your nvm
[Hero CDMA Android Development] getut:
The only problem I am having is lag related to when I've used the phone. Everything gets slow as hell for about 10 minutes after I've done anything phone related.

Everything runs normally the rest of the time as long as I haven't tried to dial anyone or received a call.

I didn't just wipe, I repartitioned prior to installing this ROM. Then I wiped everything twice. Then I flashed the ROM, then booted and went through wizard then shut right back down and flashed the 768 OC ROM.

There have been so many other updates out there that changed various things, our phones could be at vastly different software levels but all running the same ROM. Maybe there are magic software combinations causing problems. Please help me compare working and non working configs:

Rom = 2.09.1 w/ 768 OC kernel (no setCPU or OC Widget)

Baseband/Radio = 2.42.01.04.27

PRI = 2.11_002
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xxxk15:
hey dirkydirk23 would the OC kernal make my phone a lot faster. it is really fast righht now and i dont know if i should flash??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xxxk15:
right now i am using an app called system and it tells me how fast th cpu is running and it is running 500-523. would that extra 200 make a big difference??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
flash itttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt :D and delete that system app junk lol along with using that task manager by apollo software, thats the kernel that just10o provided me. its the toast kernel for damage control.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
you should USE set cpu bro and scale your phone to 710 max 245min and set it at boot, using a task manager too, couple post back. im using exact same radio, my pri is 1.70.003, prl 60665 and im running the latest damagecontrol. no lag whatso ever
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jcf304:
Are you using the profiles with setcpu and if so how do you have that configured ?

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Aridon:
Flashed this to my wife's hero. Great build. Only issue is pinch to zoom in and out doesn't seem to be working in the browser. Anyone else?

Edit

Two resets but finally fixed. Not sure what was going on but working perfectly.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] redroodog:
I completely agree !! simply put.. well said... enough said When in doubt... Wipe, Wipe and wipe..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
Dont try any of the profile settings. Other then maybe "when charging" or "temperature" profiles. But dont do the "when sleeping" profile, it will just cause wake up lag or even phone lag while your phone is asleep, leading to many problems (not phone problems but lag, battery drain, wake issues etc..). I could go into detail but im just gunna leave it with dont do the "when sleeping" profile. lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
i dont use profiles neither lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jcf304:
Ok thanks. Theres a bit of lag using the setcpu file I have so Im downloading the one provided by dirk in t he previous message. See how that one works. It still bugs me that I cant get jit work..argh...even if its just to see it work for a day ... what kind of linpack numbers your getting..I guess anything above 3 would be good because On a stock setup Im seeing over two ?

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
I get 5+.. And with darchdroid with an old kernel thats not downloadable anymore, i got 5.5mflops. Highest htc hero score.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
holy moly, you get 5, are you still running darchdroid now? with this damage i get about 3.6 or something in that area, but i turned it off, i wish alot of apps were compatible with jit, although im sure they will be soon
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonesdana:
How is it supposed to be setup? I mean, once you download, install and go through the wizard... What other phone settings or changes are required to get it working?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jeb0921:
If you have gone through all of the wizard setup things, the go to

menu>settings>call>voicemail service>set it to Google Voice

then Voicemail Settings and under voicemail number make sure it has your new google phone number. Mine did it automagically when I told it to use Google Voice in the first setting.

As long as you are signed into Google, everything should just work from that point on.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] swapped:
does anyone know of an easy way to move applications and email settings (mainly exchange) between roms when we have to do wipes. I love the bugfixes and love messing with new roms but i hate re-downloading all my apps and re-setting up my email...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cirehawk:
Actually, I did perform the step to convert ext2 to ext3. I just forgot to mention it. Either way, I'll sent you my logcat when I get off work later today. I'm actually enjoying learning about all this stuff. I've actually been a linux user on the desktop for years, so once I'm pointed in the right direction it shouldn't take me too long to figure it out.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jeb0921:
I don't. I have never had a problem with them.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sidepart:
I haven't found any bugs that I know of yet with the exception of the "menu" popping up after I tap "menu" twice to unlock. That's been reported numerous times though. And really, we can resolve that bug by adding it to the feature list. :D

One thing I noticed though, in the HTC Messages app (texting) it will try to pull contacts from my facebook account as well as from Google. I made sure to set the phone so that People (my contact list) doesn't add facebook friends. Facebook for HTC Sense is set to sync my existing contacts (for pictures, birthdays, etc). So, I'm not sure why it's happening. Anyone else notice this, anyone have a fix?

Tried disabling Facebook for HTC Sense, hoping it wouldn't sync anymore. Rebooted the phone, seems like everyone is still there (maybe there's a cache I have to flush? Or maybe I could remove the account completely?). Any thoughts?

If you were using VVM you need to dial *38 and then go back to google voice and activate vm and it will give you a number to call and that should fix the prob

Hello gang, I'm a veteran damage user, but have been venturing out and trying different roms recently. I just came from darchs full aosp rom, which I absolutely loved. The speed was incredible. However, I started to miss some sense things (believe it or not).

I have a quick question as I try to get this running in comparison to my last ROM. whats the deal with BFS? Is this rom capable of it, does it already have it? If not, is it something I could pull from fresh toast, another rom based off the same official or is it kernel specific? I plan on flashing the overclock kernel for some speed there, enabling JIT (I assume these roms still contain DConfig which makes it quite easy) and would love to add BFS if it isnt already implemented. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
yes theres themes, you missed all the festivities dude, i suggest reading pages 597-619 lol, i swear it will go by fast as heck and you will learn alot. promise.

Its something within the kernel.. Its nothing easy to just pull and push to DC rom. I dont even know enough about it to tell you if it works in my Damage OC'ing kernels HERE
