weird. aTrackdog shows updates are available.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pipefitter:
So I removed about 5MB of stuff from my card and my internal storage went DOWN by 5MB! Wtf? Someone please help me understand. I have read thousands of posts and searched for answers.

Thank you. Really...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nebenezer:
so the FC happened about a half hour ago, my phone has been sitting on my desk for almost all of that time, awake time is 100% again... UGH!!!!!

On a good note though, under normal use my battery is at 48% now since 2am this morning
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chfields:
I didn't use the *#*#4636#*#* I used the settings>about phone>Software system updates and it just gives me the option to "check now" for updates
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nebenezer:
and no luck?

I had to go back to a 1.5 build to get to 60663 but updated to 64 on regaw2.1
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mjpuczko:
alright, phone finally died. so i'm now on my first full charge since wiping battery stats this morning. not good that i only got 6 hours of moderate use out of that charge!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] heroid007:
Crossing my fingers and waiting ...... thank you so much Trev!!! I really hope I don't have to touch the rom again for long time ..... (I can listen to my geek mind giggling!!!! :P)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] adelaney:
Damage, you are the man. Your roms, the updater, and dConfig are f'in sweet. I was a big flipz fan at first, cause he was releasing the most custom work; but he slowed down. Seems like a lot of people are changing a couple things and slapping a name on, and calling it a rom. But you my friend, are the real deal.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PawkChop:
The main reasons Im leaving the stock OS behind is annoying lag and short battery life. How does this ROM do in those departments? Also, is there anyway to bring over the contacts that I have on the stock OS to the custom ROM without typing them in myself.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TrevE:
What i find interesting, i am running through battery calibration steps now. My phone shut off while in rosie due to being dead. I booted it back up to recovery and now im running fix UIDs over and over and over (only intensive thing i could think of) Its been running about an hour and a half in recovery AFTER it shut off because it thought power was dead. Now i realize radios and such arent on so its probably using less power but i woudl have assumed it would have died by now?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mjpuczko:
my battery life is not good on this rom but working on that. the lag is gone

contacts = back up to google? i haven't saved contacts directly to my phone since i got a smartphone 3 years ago. there's no point.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chfields:
All it gives me when I go to software system updates is a check box that says scheduled checks and a button at the bottom that says check now. I don't have the choices of updating pri, prl etc like I did before......
[Hero CDMA Android Development] riggsandroid:
Thats definitely weird....after 7:55 uptime, 2:18 awake, I'm at 45%. Still around the 7%/hour mark....

I would agree that is probably hardly drawing anything, but even powering the display I would think it would be drawing enough to drain the little left....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nebenezer:
lol, I'm still at 46%, unplugged at 2am.

[ROM] DamageControl v2.08 | FriendStream, Theme Server, DConfig, more | Android 2.1

how much awake time since then?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mjpuczko:
is there a way to disable apps/widgets from starting every reboot? i've noticed GtalkService, SprintTVAPPWidget & a widget for newsrob are running everytime i reboot. i can close/stop them manually but that's annoying. i don't use any of those widgets nor the gtalkservice.

obviously there's the dconfig but i can't figure out to specify certain apps/widgets.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nebenezer:
well, it was very little until 2.5 hours ago when I had a reboot.

It's been 100% awake since then and now I'm down to 34%

so, ~50% in 12 hours and another 15% in 2 hours
[Hero CDMA Android Development] subcypher:
Yeah, I tried this out for a while. Don't use this if you use gTalk. It disconnects every time you lock the screen or leave the program. That won't work for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mjpuczko:
almost done with the charge so i decided to check my up vs wake time. looks a lot better!

it was about 35% (1 hr up, 35 min awake) compared to close to 60-70 earlier today.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] animal7296:
That is actually about 56% but whos counting. LOL
[Hero CDMA Android Development] riggsandroid:
uptime 9:43

awake 2:24

battery at 34%.

Sticking really close to my 7%/hour all day. Hopefully it dies on the way home, when I play games and use it more. I can charge it all night and see how it goes.....hopefully better....

umm...hate to break it to you but 35 minutes out of 1 hour is actually 58%, not 35%..... :eek: (LOL animal beat me to it...haha)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mjpuczko:
yeah. i'm a moron w/ my math skills. wow. now i'm down to like 38% though ;-) haha.

i was dividing 35/100, not 60. brilliant! that's what happens when i'm replying here & doing actually work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nebenezer:
Damn, now I'm down to 24% in less than an hour with almost no use...

So the wake lock definitely seems to be killing the battery :(

*edit- holy crap. I just did a simple reboot using quick boot, went from 23% before to 13% after boot, wow

.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chfields:
Took phone off charger at 10a, have been on the phone for about 25 min, did several restores and a couple of flashes and tried a few adjustments and my battery is at 67% as of right now.....

I am in the process of porting your rom to the eris on verizon. Do you have any problems with screen rotation in your build?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] SweepinJR:
Have a weird quirk running Damage Control 2.08

My phone has a strange quirk with bluetooth. It connects to my Pioneer Headunit in my truck just fine (sometimes you have to fiddle a little to get it connected) but the phone almost never recognizes that I've turned the truck off and that its no longer connected. It doesn't bother me THAT much.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PawkChop:
Ok im running into problem with widgets. The clock widgets that come with the ROM just dont fit my style so I went searching on the market. However none of the ones Ive downloaded show up on the widget menu and they arent added to the program list.

EDIT- dowloaded a heroclocks widget pack and that works.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tbryan:
Hey guys I'm just wondering if I'm upgrading from 2.07 do I need to wipe before upgrading? I wouldn't think so because when i'm in the DC Update it boots and starts the install automatically?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] camdz:
Anyone know if its possible to remove XT9 completely? I will NEVER use it and it reverts back it by default. Every time I go to send/reply to a text I start typing and realize its not in ABC mode. Someway to block it or remove it completely would be awesome. Ive noticed when typing into the URL bar in the stock browser it is grayed out, so it should be possible.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] posguy99:
If you don't use whatever "newsrob" is, then why is it installed? It's not native. As for GTalk, you certainly do use it, every time you access the Market.

So they're running. So what? They're not consuming any CPU cycles.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chfields:
Gtalk has nothing to do with the market. I have it removed from my phone and have no issues with the market.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] abcdfv:
Then that's a first.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mjpuczko:
i use newsrob but not the widget. i assumed gtalk was google talk/im. maybe thats why apps arent showing as updated for me?

Gee, you think? I'm sure randomly deleting files is fun and all, but if you don't know what things are for, don't mess with them.

Especially since it hurts nothing for them to be there, they're in a different filesystem and have no impact on the space you think you need for installing applications.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] posguy99:
Then you're the only one. Don't spread nonsense.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mjpuczko:
can't people just give civil, nice responses here. my god. still running the gtalk service, no update notifications on apps that i know there are updates for. .
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chfields:
KISS MY ASS!!! I have been running this way for weeks without issue, if your having problems, thats your problem, but don't tell me its nonsense!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] riggsandroid:
Ok, back to civilization to both of you guys. I thought it was previously documented that somehow google talk was intertwined with market. Could this have changed between 1.5 and 2.1 perhaps?

He is simply confused because a lot of people have apparently had this issue....so can you clarify which .apk files you have removed?

I'd be interesting in knowing this for future reference.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mjpuczko:
thank you! my apps seem to be updated now. maybe just took a while. also, battery life seems a bit better after wiping battery stats

Sent from my HERO200 using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TrevE:
as far as i know market + gtalk are combined. From cyaogen

He also has another fix might be worth trying for the heck of it if your having market issues.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chfields:
I have removed talk.apk and gtalkservice.apk and have not had any issues with the market. I also have had no issue with battery life, or audio issues or rebooting issues either, is that nonsense as well?

It still doesn't give him the right to be rude and disrespectful.....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] riggsandroid:
That's why my comments were directed at both of you.

Interesting that you haven't had issues considering what Treve posted...wonder if the framework changed in versions.....

As for the other issues, those aren't as defined as the market/talk thing was, until now...apparently...

anyways, Treve, any update on a possible experimental build?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 1Bigg_ER:
I apologize in advance here.

I just found this thread, got too damn excited that I don't know where to start from.

How do I go about getting the goods?

thats funny... i just reverted back to 2.07.2.333 treve test tonight cause i couldnt deal with the random freezes and reboots the 2.08 was causing. **** friendstream this treve test build runs circles around the 2.08 imho, no freezes no random boots if friendstream was the only enhancement in the new build i can surely live without it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] StepheGon:
Very new myself, but I finally took the plunge just this afternoon and it was much less painful than I expected. Heres the guide I used, just substitute the fresh rom for this one.

androidforums.com/all-things-root-sprint-hero/38911-guide-root-rom-faq-tutorial.html

The only slight issue I had was no mobile network connectivity on the first boot, but a reboot fixed that for me.

I hope I'm not stepping on toes posting links to other android forums but I just spent the entire afternoon/evening doing this myself and I wasn't able to find anything this concise here. Perhaps it is here, but I couldn't find it.

PS, Thanks for the ROM, its incredible.

shouldnt need to wipe. Might want to wipe dalvik after the updates applied but you dont have to. It will be a long boot if your paranoid watch adb logcat

[Hero CDMA Android Development] amdme127:
I got on my phone today (note I was getting poor battery life compared to 2.07.2 for damagecontrol and had prl 60663), after 13 hours off the charger i had only drained my battery by 10% (a few calls, some text, and some internet - low to moderate usage) in an area with poor signal. I looked and my PRL is 27392.

Anyone know much about this PRL, because my battery life rocks. I had 60663 and people wanted me to upgrade to 60664, but wouldn't let me. Automatically downloaded this without me prompting. The number doesn't seem to follow the others (60665 would be expected) so that is why I am inquisitive about it.

So any info on PRL 27392 and what it does that improves battery life so dramatically for me?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] StepheGon:
Well, the PRL is just a list of information that allows your phone to connect to roaming partner's towers. The better signal you get, the lower power modes your phone will use so having information that allows you to roam on a strong network rather than just barely get by on sprint would give you better battery life.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] etl:
i keep getting the no md5 error, how do i fix that!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] e30user:
Upgraded from 2.8, no wipes. HTC Weather/Clock stayed in intact, even after a second reboot. However, I did lose my HTC Calendar widget. Overall though, things seem to be working fine.

Email Notifications not working

I just downloaded the ROM and made sure it was fully updated. It works great with one small exception. The email notifications don't come through. I use gmail of course and even when I open the app I have to refresh before it will show new emails. I love this ROM it's really fast and works great otherwise but I can't use it if there isn't a fix for it. HELP!!!

[Hero CDMA Android Development] lanfeare:
Just wish to say that I finally took the plunge with my hero and am very gratified with what you 2 have done. I really appreciate it you guys really are awesome. I can only imagine how much work this is to get everything right. I remember when i was just learning code in C++ and trying to write a simple program took me days dunno how this code works but i'm sure it would fly straight over my head. Well ty again. And keep up the hard work.
