Hey stupid, did you happen to read the original post saying he has a data plan and wants to use 3G?

OP: Don't listen to lbcoder, you clearly stated you wanted to keep your 3G data so the AT&T one pointed out by Mr ILIA is the right phone.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clarkster:
Yeah, he's clearly angry with the cell phones thugs in Canada. And I don't blame him, but I currently can't get a cheaper deal with Wind than what Fido/Rogers gives me. (For my usage.)

Here's hoping Wind is really a great success though, then it won't take people 5 hours on the phone to get a good deal anymore.

But if you do want an unlimited everything plan, and live in the few cities that Wind is in, and don't plan to travel to other cities in Canada often. Then seriously consider them when your time is up.

[Hero CDMA General] Dave2582:
I've been messing with my sprint HTC Hero phone for a few days now. Rooted the phone, and trying to upload mods and what not. One thing led to another, I somehow managed to make the phone loop on reboot over and over again. I tried wiping, did not make a nandroid, so I think at this point, the phone is useless unless there is a way out of this.

I just want the phone to be in its original state. I'm about to go to the store to see if the technician can somehow put the original rom back in.

Any suggestions?
[Hero CDMA General] danknee:
Power off the phone (pull the battery if you have to), power back on while holding the home button. Do you get to recovery? If you do then you are fine.

If the above doesn't get you to recovery, plug the phone into your usb port, then open cmd on your computer and type :

adb reboot recovery

Now are you in recovery?

Once in recovery you can use the nandroid in this thread to flash back to the 1.56 OTA image, otherwise just download and flash whatever custom ROM that you want to use.
[Hero CDMA General] Dave2582:
Where is that code? Am I moving the NoRootNand in the folder of the sdcard? There's absolutely nothing on the sdcard. Is that the way I'm supposed to name it on the sdcard?
[Hero CDMA General] tkirton:
Okay...what are /data/app, /data/app-private, /data/dalvik-cache, /data/data and /system/app pointed to:

Go into the phone shell by typing adb shell, then type the following command:

ls -l /data

I need to know what the entry for app, app-private, data and dalvik-cache look like.

Next, type ls -l /system

Tell me what the entry for app look like.
[Hero CDMA General] Dave2582:
Reboot

You are a life saver!

Figured it out. A million kudos, thanks!

Edit-- You guys/gals rock. Went from an almost useless phone to the original state of the phone...Took me the whole night only to get frustrated. Then I asked for some assistance, had a little help, with huge end results. Again, thanks. I consider this a hard lesson learned to make sure I back everything up before anything.

Who would of thought the knock off would be just as good if not better than the original?

Not sure where you can buy it...i searched ebay and didn't find anything.
[Off-topic] SMS92:
lol, though inevitable that was super fast!

More and more clones will hit the market as time goes on.

A few places you can get China's famous knockoffs from:

http://www.dealextreme.com (my favorite & a fantastic site for cheap gadgets, but the most 'legit' in this case, they won't state anything as an 'iPod/iPad' clone)

http://www.focalprice.com - This one is hilarious, they are a rival of DX and openly sell clones though use ridiculous terms to disguise trademarked names such as 'NokLa 3210 beautiful comfort phone' and post their own fake Engrish reviews

http://www.milkandhoneyland.com - I've never used them but they openly sell clones for what they are

Stay the hell away from clones though unless they're something you really want or have money to burn!

Edit:

More functional than the damn iPad already then.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Zinx Verituse:
First, I must thank kbeezie for being my guinea pig - he's definitely the next best thing to owning the actual phone (which I do not), and this would have probably never happened without him.

I have patched the CyanogenMod 2.6.29 donut kernel to work with the MyTouch 3G 1.2 / LE Fender. This can be used for other firmwares, but I have only created an update.zip for CyanogenMod 4.2.15.1.

To restate: THIS UPDATE.ZIP IS ONLY FOR CYANOGENMOD 4.2.15.1, WHICH YOU MUST INSTALL FIRST.

This is the standard CyanogenMod kernel, with a few patches.

It includes all the CM kernel features (including tethering), plus:

3.5mm audio jack ported

new memory map and extra memory bank were added

hardware 3d accel works (memory map)

camera works (memory map)

has the correct amount of memory (~190MB) (extra bank)

[*] Seems video recording does not work currently... or does it? may work with original CM 4.2.15.1 + this update.zip.

I have attached the update, but it is also available via:

http://zenthought.org/tmp/update-cm-4.2.15.1-mytouch3g_3.5mm-20100426.zip (md5sum 7915a543c9141bbac277867fe040f1aa)

Additionally, the patch I created is at:

http://zenthought.org/tmp/kernel-mytouch3g_3.5mm-20100426.diff

The patch applies against cyanogen's android-2.6.29-donut kernel, commit 0d1b80cd04298dee93e917580fc2bfed1d05b59f

This initial version of the patch is a bit dirty (I didn't bother to add defines for the magic numbers), but I may clean it up eventually.

If you have any reboots, please attach the output of /proc/last_kmsg when it boots back up - this file is only useful for the last reboot, so it is not useful if you rebooted any (even normally) after the crash. It should end with a bunch of hex numbers.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
EDIT - THE PURPOSE OF THE PATCH IN LAYMAN's TERMS TO THOSE WHO ARE NEW AT THIS

There are three versions of the MyTouch 3G

- Original MyTouch 3G (32B)

- Original MyTouch 3G (32A/EBI1)

- MyTouch 3G Limited Edition / v1.2 (basically has headphone jack on top)

The problem is that HTC has not yet released the kernel source for the third version of the MT3G (aka MT3G LE/1.2), as a result fully functional custom roms are not possible, for example the ports that have been available thus far, such as the CM "Port", doesn't have working internet tethering, and every Eclair port for the LE/1.2 do not have 3D capability (no GPU drivers).

For example if you took the Defangled Base + CM ROM onto an original MyTouch 3G (32B), it would work fine. But if you did the same onto an LE/1.2 you would not have a working touchscreen, headphone jack, full memory (you'd lose bout 2/3rd of your rams due to improper mapping), and a number of other issues. By flashing the kernel patch above onto the rom without wiping you replace the drivers and mapping thus allowing the 32B CM rom work fully on the LE/1.2. Also because the drivers were created from source instead of hacked out from a boot image from the stock rom, all kernel features of Cyanogenmod remain intact. This is thus far the best attempt at creating drivers from source, due to reverse engineering, so that a custom rom has 100% full kernel functionality

My installation process

- flashed the Defangled base (Mirror)

- flashed the 4.2.15.1 CM rom

- flashed the above patch

- flashed Binary's theme

- Rebooted

"What works" list

- Youtube (Both SD and HD)

- Camera

- Camcorder

- Protected Market Apps show up (ie: Paypal)

- 3D (games are Fasssst, tested Radian, Totemo, Retro Defense, etc)

- Headphone Jack

- App2SD (but why would you want to on this phone?)

- Bluetooth/Wifi/Etc

- Video playback (tested on some mp4s)

- Google Voice 0.3.2 runs without crashing

- Native USB Internet Tethering (ie: in the Settings -> Wireless control section)

- Android Wifi Tether

- Compcache Support

- Wifi and Bluetooth internet tethering (bluetooth works best as it won't drain your battery faster than it can be charged)

What doesn't work (updated late April 28)

- Some users report random reboots on their devices, I've had em myself but its been nearly 24 hours since my last one

- When a headphone is plugged in it shows up as a Headset (Not sure how this may have a negative impact)

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
Awesome! How can we do this for all roms?

And any theories for the camcorder issue?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
In *theory* you can flash this patch onto any 32B Rom (non-EBI1) based on the same kernel (dounut). He basically had the CM 4.2.15.1 kernel to go off of. Also with any luck (maybe some incentive) he can do the re-mapping for the GPU so we can finally have an eclair rom with working 3D on the LE/1.2 :D

Besides CM and Super-D I don't know of too many 32B roms, so I haven't really tested it with anything other than the official CM rom.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] knny1491:
super d is based off cm source isnt it, regardless this is an amazing work for us tobeable toflash this over a 32b rom and it actually work.

It is , which is why originally when the MT3G LE/1.2 port was made he mentioned not releasing it due to how close it was to the original CM port. I am incredibly grateful to the op for his patience, based on our chat logs we been whacking at this for several hours a day for nearly 4 days now, and he doesn't even own a MT3G LE/1.2 , he's been relying on me to test update after update, I almost feared he'd call it quits given how much of a pain in the ass it seemed lol.

Random reboots

I'm getting kernel panics pretty often now causing random reboots.

Sometimes I don't do anything at all. The phone boots... sits and loads and then reboots.

http://pastebin.com/Hpg1U2TX

btw i did not flash this directly over the original 4.2.15.1 but the ported version instead. everything still works. tethering, compcache, video, etc.

not sure if it makes any difference.

I tried defanged, rom, then patch and it would reboot at the lockscreen but never wiped.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
It's not a rom, its a patch, and when used with Cyanogenmod 4.2.15.1 , on my LE, I do see copyprotected apps in the market just fine.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] voxluna:
Oh, thank you for pointing that out. I see that now. :o

I guess that leads me to another question... how does this differ from, say, gsxR's implementation? I suppose that's where "*PROPER*" comes into play?

Maybe not so proper after all. But I'm enthused about the attention being given to these MSM72xx phones, especially the new CM 5.x that Steve and others are working on. Now

that's

Ok so I did your steps. I guess it worked but I don't know. I got the CM ANDROID logo on boot up but all of my apps are still there. Is that because I did the dalvik cache and not a regular wipe like I have in the past? I'm thinking it did work though because I can turn off and reboot my phone something I couldn't do with the ROM I was running from gssxR. Ok so now that I've got this what all can I do? LOL!

I was referring to the post above me about CM5, not 4.2.15.1.

They were talking about flashing the patch on top of CM5 and said those things weren't working.

I've been running 4.2.15.1 with the patch from Zinx since he posted it with only the reboot problem, which stopped once he released his second patch that decreased the memory.

I may not be a programmer, but I definitely know how to flash a ROM and follow directions.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
the op clearly stated this oatch is ONLY for 4.2.15.1

also regarding battery, cm always has 528 max/ 128 min mghtz for all dream/sapphire device and since the le/1.2 normally has it at 384/225 then battery is expected to be less unless you underclock it with setcpu or similar. only reason "ports" dont suffer this is because they use the stock kernel, not cm's
