I updated from 0.9.6OC to .0.9.6.3 yesterday, by flashing 0.9.6.2, and applying the update to .3. I realy like this ROM!

I have two issues, and would appreciate some assistance.

1. I use the BofA app from the market. It has always worked well for me. With this ROM, the app will not remember me, even after I input my user name, tell it to remember, answer the security questions, and enter my password. The next time it will say it doesn't remember this device, and makes me input the info again, and answer the security question again. I have uninstalled the app and reinstallled it, same thing. I have checked to remember all the settings in the browser: passwords, form data, accept cookies. This app works fine for me in 0.9.6OC. Any ideas? Please let me know if more info is needed.

2. This one is realy a nit pick! I don't care for the way the shortcuts/apps/icons look with the grey box/ borders around them on the home screens and the apps drawer. I think it makes a cleaner look and easier to see without that. Anyone have an easy fix to make them look stock?

Thanks! Great community! Great ROM

I can't remember exactly where but in the first 20 or so pages there is a update.zip that you can flash to get rid of them. If not try this it will also help you to learn the system a little. In com.htc.resources.apk look in the res folder and you'll see a png called container open that up with gimp and erase it save it and adb push it back to /system/framework

If so, this will remove those boxes? Great! Thanks!

Well, I guess this is not working for me. I flashed the zip I found which I referenced above through recovery, and I see no change after the relatively long re-boot.

I then found (thru Root explorer) the com.htc.resources.apk, and the res folder, but that is where I get stumped. I don't see anything called png or container. And what is gimp? Thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chromiumleaf:
No, the post he is referring to is #934: Remove the 'iphone-ish' background boxes.

Or you can just search 'iphone' in this thread and you'll find it a couple results down.

GIMP is a free, open-source advanced image editing program, very similar to Adobe Photoshop.

EDIT: (Side note of enthusiasm just to myself -- I can finally post links in this forum!!! :D)

I installed Zen a couple of hours ago and I'm pretty happy with it so far. The only issue I've found so far is with Pop3 accounts. If I set up an email account, it verifies the incoming server with no problem. When I set up the outgoing server, I get a message that it "can't connect to the mail server." In effect, I can get mail, but not send it.

These are settings I've used with two previous ROMs without any problem.

I just wanted to say that I've tried Fresh 2.0d, Fresh 2.1.2 and Damage Control 2.08 and this Zen ROM runs more efficiently than any of them. Less hassles, great features, good battery life and everything works correctly as far as I can tell. Great job, Zen.

The other day I had asked about the new mms connection settings and got a response from zippy-man (thanks) and I noticed that on other roms that if you go into ##DATA# and change the mms settings there it also changes the mms settings in the connection portion. So now my question, "is there any way that I could change the rest of those settings in there". (don't know why I put quotes either it just happened)

Hi all,

What's crackin'? My name is Adam from Indiana, USA. I am really really new too all this Android stuff. I just got my HTC Hero 2 days ago. Well I have been searching ever since then for a way to theme and change the look of it because I HATE the default look of rosie/eclair or whatev. Anyway I came across the thread on this forum with the post to ZenEXP and from the moment I saw the screenshots I was hooked I knew it was this ROM or NO ROM. So I researched all damn night making sure I knew everything I needed to know to be able to rely on my computer skill if I got stuck somewhere without a UI. So boom here I am with my shiny, freshly formatted, ZenEXP 0.9.6.2 updated install!!! It's the most badass thing I've ever experienced on a phone to date in my life!!! :D Sorry for sounding so cheesy but I, like I said, am new too all this... This is my first smart phone besides the Palm Pixi I just sent back to be replaced by my HTC HERO! Best decision ever btw. haha. Well I'd just like to thank you very much for working so hard and making something so stable and functional for all of us! Thank you!!!

Adam.

Dumb question...I'm currently running 0.9.6OC, and have it set up they way I like. Re-reading the forum I see that 0.9.6.2(.3) is faster/smoother. I tried it before, from a fresh flash, and had a couple of issues, so I went back to a nandroid of 0.9.6OC Now I would like to try the .2, and/or .3 versions. I have tried to flash the update, from the first post, the 4.9MB one, and it doesn't seem to change the version, at least from looking at what displays at the top of the updater. ("Running ZenEXP-0.9.6")

What am I doing wrong? What am I missing? Is the only way to get .2 (then .3) to flash the complete ROM? I have tried this several times... :confused: I was successful in updating the updater to 2.1...

I could just stay with 0.9.6OC, it is working well...I'm not sure I want to go thru all the setup again.

Thanks!

This is the smoothest ROM I have tried to date. But... I really miss Gmail, since the other mail clients don't have push.( I know that there are some convoluted workarounds to approximate push.)

More importantly, is it possible to strip the Gmail app from another ROM and get it working on Zen?

ZenUpdater Issues

Hi All,

I just rooted today and flashed this ROM and the first update.

I've tried updating ZenUpdater to 2.1 and I've also tried to install the most recent update.

When attempting to update ZenUpdater it gets to Copying Files and does not move. On the ROM update it gets to writing BOOT and does not move.

I've let both of them attempt to load for 30 minutes.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks!

I'm having a problem similar to BrandoKC.

I run the Zen Updater and it downloads everything with no problem. I choose to install and do the "reboot now"

When my phone reboots it starts copying the update files but then the "root menu" comes up before it finishes. (By "root menu" I mean the menu that lets you wipe, backup, flash, etc...)

Its like nothing is telling the startup process to pause and wait for the copy to finish. For something like the ZenUpdater2.1 update, it always shows the progress bar about 60% of the way before the menu pops up.

Some updates get farther along, some less far before the menu comes up. Only the smallest updates finish the copy step before the menu appears.

Any thoughts on how to fix this?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chromiumleaf:
Are the updates not working or applying correctly? If you reboot again, is your phone messed up or bootlooping? If not, then you probably don't have a problem.

ZenUpdater downloads the updates with no problem. I allow the Updater to reboot my phone to apply the update and it seems that the apply just never completes.

My phone doesn't bootloop or lock, it just doesn't apply the update. When I reboot again and check the version numbers, it confirms the update hasn't applied.

I've rebooted countless times, the only thing I haven't done is a total fresh re-flashing of ZenEXP, which I'm trying to avoid because I'm so happy with the rest of it.
