[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nebenezer:
No one can help you chose a rom, it's a personal choice and frankly there are so many to chose from you'll get at least 5 different answers from 10 people.

The advantages are you will get much better performance out of your device and unlock potential that the average person would never know exists. Sprint bogs the thing down with so much crap you would be AMAZED at how much better it will operate when it's all cleaned up :D Also you can do things like wifi tether (true) and enable the built in light saber (false)

The disadvantage is learning about this stuff and doing it for yourself is so fascinating and fun if you're not careful it will quickly take over every aspect of your life (true)

There are plenty of guides from getting started for total noobs to things like compiling kernel from source code. Check out the guides wiki at the top of the forum, it' one of the stickies. First thing you will do is "root" and backup your phone, then you're pretty much good to do whatever you want and as long as you don't flash a GSM rom on your CDMA hero anything you do after you make a nandroid backup is reversible.

Welcome to xda, have fun!

*edit- LOL, there's a few of us up late tonight I see!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terryazthompson:
I finally decided to use custom ROM because I got sick of waiting for Sprint to release 2.1 update. There is all sorts of software out now that just runs on 2.1, Google Navigate was the big one for me.

Since I upgraded, there has been other things, speed, the ability to install a virtually unlimited set of apps, live wallpapers, swype keyboard, these are the big things i Like. Edit: Oh and wifi tethering is huge!!

There are some problems right now, you cant have everything at once. and it will take some time playing around to get what works best for you.

One other thing to consider is that when Sprint rolls out the 2.1 update over the air, you may lose the ability to root your phone. You can root now, and when the update comes out, someone here will make a rom from it and that way you will guarantee the ability to have root and still have latest stock sprint/htc software.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nebenezer:
Agreed, there are several methods to rooting but you cant go wrong doing it the old fashioned way. You get some great exposure to the inside of your phone and TTG wrote a very good guide. Just follow the steps.

Also in that guide he has a link to the 1.5.2 recovery image, thats a little outdated, you want RA's 1.6.2 found HERE, scroll about 2/3 down the page and choose one of the 4, doesn't matter which, the only difference in them is cosmetic.

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] rogatsby:
I'm using one of the new ROMS with Sense 2.5 and WM 6.5 21901, and the Youtube is not working. It shows the thumbnails with no problem, but when I click on a video, an error message pops up that says, "This video cannot be played". Otherwise Internet works fine.

Has anyone had this problem with any of the newer Sense 2.5 roms? Is there a solution for this? By the way, the Google Youtube app works fine.

Tried searching, but couldn't find any answers.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] williyung:
Did you reversmode the YouTube package files? It could be caused by that.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] rogatsby:
What do you mean by reversemode? Do you mean recmod? I'd really appreciate your response.

By the way, your roms are great.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] williyung:
Thanks. :)

Reversmode means convert files to modules.

Recmod means convert modules to files
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] rogatsby:
Hmmm... No, I didn't reversemode any of the files in the package. I did recmod a couple of modules.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Wild Child:
I suggest you mention this to the maker of the rom,this is an error on thier part. If you are the maker of the rom then usually this is a dshow or driver error.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Delaneyd:
I can't find a straight forward answer on this and I know I'm not the only one with this question.

Which kernel/radio/rom is the best for 3g/reception/ect?

Everyone has their own preference and there are a lot of variables that make a difference, but I'm just curious on what you all think. I'm running diet_2.6.33.2.hybrid_avs_925mv_OC/4.04.00.03/cyanogen 5.0.6 and I'd have to say that my signal strength/3g/EDGE/ect performs pretty well. But it could always be better - right? I'm not even sure how much the kernels/radios/roms change the performance from one to the next and that’s the reason I started this thread. Let me know what you all feel. Thanks.
[Windows Mobile] rogatsby:
I cooked a Sense 2.5 ROM on WM 6.5 Build 21901. Everything works great, but I am having problems with Youtube. The program starts up fine and the thumbnails all load, but when I click on a video, it always says "This video cannot be played". I am not having any data connection issues. But this happens on both Wifi and 3G.

Has anyone had this problem, and is there a solution?

By the way, the Google Youtube app works fine.

Thanks in advance.

Did you try playing with Streaming_SDK?

I don't know if you use mixed packages but I recommend to use packages coming from the same source.

Dshow

mHub

Streaming_SDK

Youtube

Look in the multimedia packages.

I prefer to use packages that come from the same stock rom.
[Windows Mobile] chrisjaffe:
I also read somewhere that the flash packages need to be from the same build as the youtube player.

It may have helped fix an issue that I had.

[Touch GSM General] Jasjit:
Hello All,

I am using HTC touch for a while and would use different ROM versions quite often. Recently i put in the some ROM which event i don’t remember which one i started getting this error below. I checked and made sure that there is nothing in the SIM card i also put in the SIM in different Cell phone to make sure its blank. I also reverted the device to the Factory Image but still the same issue. There is no pattern on when i get this error it would some time come twice in 1 hour and some time it would be couple of hours. Once i get this error and select Ok my network will go to searching and often end up enable Flight Mode and then disabling it.

"SIM card full. The SIM card is full. You must remove some messages from your SIM card to receive incoming SIM messages."

Any pointers are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Jasjit

it will be necessary for you to call the carrier to locate a retail location near you that has a Cellebrite device... not all locations have one as they are quite expensive... using the Cellebrite it is possible to wipe/edit your SIM...

this happens sometime with my device also.

but in my case i just clean simcard and reinsert it.

Just tried out the pre-alpha version of Fennec on the Nexus One...

available here: http://blog.vlad1.com/2010/04/27/fennec-on-android-ground-zero/

After going into settings>applications>allow unknown sources, it installed predictably without having to reboot. It's like a miniature version of an old familiar friend. :) pinch/zoom doesn't work yet, but the pages were readable... tiny versions of familiar looking webpages. (some sites load the web view, some loaded the mobile view) Youtube loaded the mobile view, but I couldn't seem to trigger the videos to actually play.

Navigation is very intuitive, pages load very crisply, the keyboard entry is stable, there are some nice new navigation features. It is a pre-alpha build, but something to look forward to in the near future?

[Touch HD General] thomvanloon:
I found myself a way to enable my current location. Since it has always never worked on custom roms!

Steps:

Go to Settings tab --> "menu"(under-right corner) --> "more" --> "connections" --> "connections" (yes, again) --> Manage known connections ( i don't know if this is the correct translation, i have a dutch rom, in that case: "bestaande verbindingen beheren" --> <choose your provider> --> "edit" --> "next"--> There should be some sort of adress on your screen right now! delete this adress! --> "next" --> "apply" / "finish"

This did the trick for me!

Let me know if it works for all HTC roms!
[Touch HD General] acneman:
Unfortunately this simply prevents me from being able to connect to my provider at all

"TextModeEnabled"=dword:00000001

"HardwareStartKeyEnabled"=dword:00000001

"HardwareDoneKeyEnabled"=dword:00000001

I'd like to know how to :

- skin the buttons (for example, change them from rounded to squared)

- relocate the start menu on top (classical 6.5 location)

- skin the menu, increase or decrease the bar thickness...

any infos & links are welcome !

thx.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] MooGoo:
+1 but also for 6.5 and below.

The persistent task and menu bar is one of the things I hate most about WinMo. In portrait orientation they can be tolerable but in landscape they take up a significant chunk of the vertical screen space. This almost nullifies the advantage of having a high resolution display.

It would be great if there was a way to make them smaller, or even hide them completely. There are not nearly enough full screen apps to make up for this deficiency.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] fr3sh_t0_d3f:
go here and download the oem. it is a very good base for starters. It has everything you need to skin a 6.5.x theme

Hi,

is there a facebook fix that makes facebook really working on manila 2.6?

Basically on the ROM I'm using currently, it seems that contacts updates are partly working, and online album is not working.

I've seen the fix from Dutty, making online Album work, but contacts not working.

Anyone has a fix that supports facebook as intended?

Contacts means what? Contacts updates are working on my rom, incl. photos from FB, but online albums not.

I'm running official rom.

Online albums are not running even after official fix from HTC.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Deleted member 1919717:
Hi interresting that evewn the official ROM does not support the album.

When I'm talking on contacts, I'm refering to a fix Dutty provided for one of his ROMS (I think it was HolyGrail R6).

With this fix album worked, but the contacts didn't any more (So no user picture and status updates any more)

(With this fix dutty replaced the facebookSDK.dll)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Bruce Inman:
GeScha,

There is a thread about Facebook tab for 2.5.

I installed it, but it didn't work for me as I have too many manila tweaks (CHT) so it didn't work, but from a fresh flash it is supposedly working.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Deleted member 1919717:
Hi Bruce,

this creates the facebook tab. I use it as well, and it works fine on LueMeiYins Yin7. I also use Cookies 1.7.1

The facebooktab lists basically all status messages that are in the contacts. AS it uses basically the manila features from contacts, it does not improve the general troubles with facebook (but it also does not cause any unknown or new ones.)

So still online album is not working. But seems that it is not working as well on the stock rom and therefore I have less hope that there is a fix for this.

Gescha
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] DD_:

you'r right, it's not working on stock rom as well (on HD2, the situation is the same).

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Delaneyd:
Okay, another question that makes me feel kinda dumb.

How can I improve my N1's performance?

Specifically, how in the world do I get my nexus even close to the N1's I see on Linpack's "Top Devices"?

I'm running diet_2.6.33.2.hybrid_avs_925mv_OC with cyanogen 5.0.6. I can get 7.778 MFLOPS. Honestly, I don’t even know what that means. All I know is that I want more. Or do I? Does it even make that much of a difference in everyday usage?

I've noticed that in the JIT thread under development they talk about getting up to 17 MFLOPS, but no one really explains what JIT is or does. Just that it's unstable and that if your not sure what it is, you don't need it.

I can benchmarkPi in 2790 - how in the hell do I get it lower? Under the rom description of some of the top 50 they mention JIT and experimental kernels, but there's not much room for more than just the generic names of them. Where do I get these magical roms and kernels? Do I even want them? Are they so unstable that they can only be used to gain geek cred on some benchmark lists and once they hit the "high score" they explode in flames? Do I need safety goggles before I flash the update.zip?

Seriously though, I know I'm not the only one with these questions - so any info would help. And do me a favor, please do not respond to say that if I don't know - I don’t need to know. At one point, you didn't know either. No one was born with this knowledge.

I know there is a very bright person on here that is willing to take a couple of minutes to shed some light on us simpletons. I'd like to thank you in advance. Thanks.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eclair~:
Even if you get higher linpack scores, you will barely notice any difference in your devices performance... That's why I tend to ignore it. If its possible to get faster than Cyanogen ROMs (not in terms of linpack) I don't know how different things would be.. im curious about how quick Froyo is though.

Oh and have you searched, Jit has been covered in more places than just xda developers, several times it has been discussed I believe.. while using it, my Linpack scores did get into the double digits though - but this (not even that noticeable actually) speed increase was not worth the random reboots, and such. When Jit is stable though, it will be quite nice.. hopefully Froyo has it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bahathir:
Linpack number did not make any differences in overall usage :). Now, I am using my own UV kernel and setcpu max freq to 500MHz.. only... but, I still able to get 26.8 fps in Neocore's 3D benchmark. Playing games, 3D or not, still smooth and fluid.

I also waiting for Froyo and hope we can get even efficient and fast OS.
