So far so good for me with 2.09.01. I've had no data problems and no lag to speak of. I've had no problems with Market. Battery life looks good.

Prior to this I ran Fresh rom and PureHero. This one isn't as fast as overclocked PureHero, but it feels a little smoother overall for some reason. Fresh was laggy for me in certain areas like browser. Not sure why.

I'm running Helix for my home app instead of Sense. Not using the HTC widgets. Helix is just too fast to put up with Sense crap.

So far so good. At this point I'm kinda torn between PureHero and this one. I like the stock Mail app, Contacts, and dialer in PureHero. Wish I could get that on here.

For now I think I'll flip back and forth between the two with nandroid and do some testing.

Thanks to DC and Trev and anyone else involved.

I flashed this last night after making some tweaks to the ZIP myself (bootanimation, a little theming to add clear lockscreen and live wallpapers).

I rebooted this afternoon and battery life literally went into the dumper. Found out the Calendar had a wakelock and was in constant Sync in the Accounts/Settings page. After fixing that I'm no longer at 100% awake.

Everything else has been solid... running Beautiful Widgets w/ Beautiful Wallpaper no problems.

Tried using the overclocked kernel (710) this morning but reverted back to the standard kernel, phone was laggy with the 710 kernel. It wasn't scaling up to 710 fast enough (ondemand) after waking up.

Nice work DC and TrevE!

Thanks Roadster, I stand corrected. Indeed the Apps2SD appears to be working just after a flash because I reflashed this rom a third time today and I checked with root explorer and the app that I installed post flash (root explorer) was indeed in the system\sd\apps folder. There fore the SD and Phone storage menu under settings is not a good measure of whether you have apps2SD installed or not.

Think I'm going to be going back to 2.08.1 after tonight. This one seems a bit more buggy (I attribute that to the buggy Sprint RUU) and my Linpack scores aren't as high as they were with 2.08.1.

has anyone else ever had that camera issue, i thought it was just me, but sometimes im using the camera, and it will freeze, not all the time but every blue moon, and then it will kick me back to the homescreen and i try to launch camera again, and it wont open, the only thing that fixes this is a restart, and no im not using JIT

Live Wallpapers

Okay, for the last month, Ive been flashing nothing but damaged roms, but today I took a plunge and grabbed Fresh Rom, the new one.

As far as I can tell, Damages Rom works wonderful, but its missing alot of the bells and whistles that Fresh provides. Now Im the kinda guy that likes to stick with something, and not deviate. And to be perfectly honest, the only reason I did it, was LIVE WALLPAPERS. Why cant this be added to this rom, and why cant the little addons be there as well? Like for instance the icons in mail are colored, and nice. Are these things that will be added eventually, or not at all on the roadmap?

P.S. I flashed without wiping, over the damage 2.05 rom, with no issues. I only did this because it seems they said it was the same base rom..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tkirton:
Go into adb shell.

At the root prompt (#), type ls -l /data

Look for the entry app and see if "-> /system/sd/app" is to the right of the entry. If it is, then you are set.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DJAscendance:
Most of these things can be added by you, the user after the fact if indeed necessary.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chfields:
I agreee as well, nothing beats Google voice...I love getting an e-mail transcript of the message. This is great when I'm working and can't call in to listen.....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] phonetec:
u want live wallpapers on this??

just flash this zip without a wipe
[Hero CDMA Android Development] subliminalurge:
So you're saying that

1.) Fresh has Live Wallpapers.

2.) They work with Sense.

3.) It's not an Eris based rom and won't mess my PRI up....

Is that what you're saying? If so, I'll flash it right now.....

(But I don't think you can actually make those claims...)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tkirton:
*86 then the phone number. If successful, you should hear a series of beeps.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DJAscendance:
1. Fresh DOES have Live Wallpapers.

2. They DO NOT work with Sense.

3. Its a ROM based off from Damages 2.1 with Fresh's own custom tweaks.

4. You probably have to use a different launcher like the Nexus Launcher 2 or something to that extent.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonesdana:
Excuse my ignorance... never used Google Voice. Why is it better than Sprints VVM? I tried it once, never got it working and had just ended up with a bunch of annoying text messages and had to wipe and start over.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] phonetec:
they dont work with sense, ive got the htc sense lwp installed, just doesnt work yet, im working on it though
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jeb0921:
It gives you a vvm similar to sprint, plus you get a transcript of the message. You also get a phone number to give out specifically for voice mail, that way you don't have to give your personal number.

it also has calling out features, but I have never used them
[Hero CDMA Android Development] crash447:
Would AutoKill be useful with this rom? I am just asking because it seems like about half the time roms lately have it included and I have been very pleased with it the few times I have used it. I didn't know if damage's memkill settings make it pointless.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] typeadam:
As far as the sync issue, on r2, removing HtcFacebook.apk and pushing the alternate HtcFacebook.apk that was posted, did the trick for me. Will that same approach work on this build??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mountaindont:
First things first.

Damage, you must be laying some major d!ck down, and laying it down GOOD to be getting official sprint leaks, and I must say, I couldnt be happier.

Just ONE thing.

I understand the trackball is light sensitive...and I understand why Sprint (or you) would want it that way...but please. Im begging you. Or whoever can help..how do I get a constant trackball led? I cant explain why its so important to me, and I cant expect you to change the whole rom around for just me...but it must be possible, if it worked in 1.5...and id do anything to have my trackball led back full time.

You are a true artist....ive said it before, expect to hear it again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonesdana:
This did work for me to get all my FB updated... If I uninstall minfreemanager after i am done with the ROM memkiller kick back in, or do i need to keep this app now and leave it in "aggressive"???
[Hero CDMA Android Development] uraganone:
Wow wow wow

Extremely impressed.

Internet sharing works just fine like it used to be on the HTC windows based, no need for extra software or anything self installs or connects. (very impressed). it uses the full speed of your network.

FB dont sync but i dont care this thing is a killer.

No PRL issue (i went with my stock PRL from Cellular South).

I have my custom theme so other widgets and stuff not a problem.

I would suggest people to install the Autokiller and Adfree coz they both do a great job.

Battery is perfect been using it for 3 or 4 hours and still within 90 % battery (awsome)

Google voice works like it should and calls abroad are done directly now.

Market dont show all the stuff but i am not to worried ( i have my own resources :) )

Great job Brother keep it coming
[Hero CDMA Android Development] riggsandroid:
FYI

I'm sure most of you know this, but I pushed Gallery onto this build and it worked fine. Hope that helps someone.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gapoochi:
I had the facebook problem this morning when I flashed this. It wouldn't sync any of my contacts.

I have it working now and how it started working...I went to market and did the update on the facebook program. once i did that, all my contacts were updated with pictures and everything in less than 2 minutes.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jacksmind:
Works great until I enable JIT and disable everything except social networking then when I restart for the changes I get stuck in a bootloop. :(

Download link to Damage Control v2.08.1 zip file

Trev or anyone on this thread,

Do you guys have the download link to the old Damage Control v2.08.1 zip file? I'm thinking of downgrading to that version because the Damage Control v2.09.1 version does not have the Flash Plug-In. I really don't want to downgrade but I really want the flash plug-in feature you use when browsing the internet. :confused:

I flashed the rom and when it booted up first thing i noticed the clock is gone the one that shows location and weather. second every time i try to change lock screen wallpaper i get android.settings process quit unexpectedly. also no calender. can some one please help me:o
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bruceleroyjr:
Fixed my FlashLitePlugin issue...

Ok, I thought I had to downgrade back to 2.08.1 to get the Flash Lite Plugin issue fixed, but what I did as a quick fix was grab the FlashLitePlugin.apk file from the old Damage Control 2.08.1 zip file and installed it on my Hero. I first uninstalled the existing FlashLitePlugin.apk and reinstalled the old one using the adb commands. I loaded up one my favorite flash websites and it loaded up PERFECT. If you don't want to downgrade and just want the Flash Plug-In to work when viewing sites on the browser. Perform the steps I mentioned above. Good luck! =)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Darknight630:
Upgraded to 2.09.01 and all is awesome. However there's a couple apps I want to remove like HelixLauncher, MP3 Store, etc. How would I go about removing these apps?

Everything was going good, but just had a FC on the phone app as a call was coming in. BT doesn't always stay connected either. :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cirehawk:
Last night I did a nandroid backup of my 2.08.1 setup and then flashed 2.09.1. Initially I didn't wipe, but I got stuck in the boot loop so I wiped and flashed again. I don't have titanium, so I had to re-install all my apps. It took about 20 minutes, so that's not too bad. Things were working nice and smooth for most of the day today. However, this afternoon it started lagging badly. When I tried to make a call, it would take more than 30 seconds to respond and actually place the call. I could hardly move between home screens. I rebooted and still had the same behavior.

So I decided to wipe everything and go back to my 2.08.1 nandroid backup. Unfortunately, once it was restored a lot of my apps/widgets were missing. Market was even missing, so I couldn't re-install the missing ones. I guess I have to flash 2.08.1 fresh and set everything back up manually. Based on my experience today, I'd have to agree that 2.09.1 is unstable. I thought about trying it again, but now I'm not sure. I may just redo my 2.08.1 and stick with it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Counterfeit7485:
I had similar issues and had to nand restore my 2.08.1 but I had no issues with the restore. 2.09.01 is definately not stable, I'd stick with 2.08.1 for now!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] extxn72:
I'm right there with ya. I was really hoping it wouldn't have all of the 2.1 problems, but I guess since it's based so much on the official release it's got all the sense bugs in it. The 10+ second lag calling from a direct dial shortcut is the deal breaker for me. It was the deal breaker when I was running stock 2.1 and why I took my phone in to get it exchanged.

I'm back running PureHero today and I don't know that I'm ever going back to anything with Sense.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Darknight630:
"rm failed for amazonmp3.apk, Read-only file system"

I think I have an idea :|
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
I have noticed that if you don't try to enable anything other than the basics (moving around icons, changing settings, changing the wallpaper) this rom works far superior to the previous or any other out there. I don't have any issues and its far snappier. I believe almost all the problems lie in trying to add or take away features like OC, JIT, lock screens, random sense issues which are in 2.1. Sadly, this is pretty much what everyone who is on this forum wants to do.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xxxk15:
how long will it take to boot up when i flash the rom??. its been on the first HTC screen for like 6-7 minutes
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Darknight630:
Takes about 10-15 minutes. Go make a sandwich in the meantime.

Just to double check on the removing apps thing, HelixLauncher=com.helixproject.launcher.apk right?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] smw6180:
Give it 30 minutes. I've seen it take 15-20.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xxxk15:
everytime i boot into the new rom it gets caught in a boot loop what can i do??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aarronbittick:
Sigh, I have been using DC ROMs for a long time. It really makes me sad this Rom is what you want to claim as your final hero ROM. So slow, even after clean wipe & such. Switching over to Fresh. Goodbye DC.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] cirehawk:
I'm not trying to run JIT, or anything other than what I was running on 2.08.1 I run apps2sd, but that's about it. 2.09.1 was working good for me until about mid afternoon. Then it started to lag something fierce.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xxxk15:
is the rom 2.09.1 faster than 2.08.1?? should i even flash 2.09.1??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] SammyM00782:
Mine was just as lagged as the sprint rom so I myself went back to Fresh as well. HTC widgets never came up, market worked fine but even after being overclocked it still wasn't all that fantastic. I'm not a douche though, I understand how f'ed up it is doing all of this crap so I'm gonna send you guys a lil something anyway. I've been using DC ever since I got the Hero 2 months ago (I know, it took me long enough) and have never donated. So, since this may possibly be a farewell from D and T I gotta do my thing to say thanks for putting up with us. Hopefully someone will figure out how to get us Froyo :-) IF that's possible.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] SammyM00782:
Exactly the same here. I run the typical stuff that came with the phone anyway. With Fresh though I miss Peep. I know, I know....blah blah but I like it :-p FriendStream throws too much ish into the window at one time for me. Speaking of which, has anyone put Peep into Fresh 2.1?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
whats the deal with every one having all these issues, i came from darchdroid, repartitioned card in recovery, and wipe factory settings, wiped dalvik, wiped ext before partitioning my card though, and boot only took my 5 mins, its not that hard. stop holding on to those apps and just wipe your ext dudes, i have seen no force closes on this yet been running since this morning. this is the best damage rom ever. hands down, bettery still at 30 percent since this morning and with heavy usage. later gay boys(from the hangover)

One thing i noticed was that on my wife's non rooted hero, when you hit menu then wallpaper, it asks you whether you want to change home or lock screen.

on our damage ROM, it goes straight to pick the picture. To change lock screen you have to go into setting/personalize. not a biggie, just noticed it.

this is a Functional ROM. you cant beat that. over clock it and get a decent app/process killer and it will fly.

go ahead and switch to fresh, have fun with all those force closes, lmfao hahahahahaha youll be back. I know you will, and if its slow or laggy YOU are not doing something right its not the roms fault. this roms is lighting fast. even faster when overclocked "they see me trollin, they hating, trying catch me trollin dirty"

i have to say i am dissappointed with the new release, no offense and i know these guys do all this for free but this is the only update that i flashed but ended up reverting back to the original....

I hate to say it so as not to jinx myself, but the new ROM is running great and is fast. 2.08.1 was very laggy for me.

if i may ask, which overclockin app are you using? and what speed are u using? which setting that I can set and forget and still use tether and it continues to be functional?

I'm obv using ext3 - and dc2.09.1 is working great but my overlclocking exp is very limited.
