Did you use the phone for a while with no card at all in it? I just want to make sure we've clearly eliminated all possibilities
[HD2 General] solace.discord:
I had the voice command problem- if you go to settings->all settings->personal->buttons and change the default for send key from voice command to ok/close, it stops coming up.
[HD2 General] adamhlj:
I used the phone for a while without putting music onto the memory card. But I have always had the stock memory card in it. This really started happening as soon as I loaded music onto it. I had a few files on it like the bsb tweaks and other mods. But nothing big. What is interesting is that I found a 8 gig micro sdhc lying around and put that in. It has a bunch of pictures and files from school when I had my bb last summer. When I try opening some of the pictures, a new prompt comes up saying "A problem has occurred with HTCPhotoPicker.exe..." and the picture viewer terminates. What the eff is wrong with my phone???
[HD2 General] adamhlj:
So i think its most definitely something to do with the memory card. When I take it out, it doesn't have a problem. When I put it back in, thats when it acts up. And I even tried deleting all my music from the card then putting it back on, and it still occurs. I emailed HTC about it. Hopefully, I actually get a response.

We need to get Cyanogen a CDMA hero and see if he can cook us up the cyanogenmod. The g1 and mytouch are rocking it.

[Hero CDMA General] mountaindont:
yeah hes ruled the roost of whatever phone hes using

wonder why hes never considered the hero

isnt he on the nexus nowadays though? itd be downgrading :-(
[Hero CDMA General] andyjbmiller:
He hasn't officially released this 5.0.7 yet but hes about to. So he must still do work with the g1....etc
[Hero CDMA General] theraginasian:
I would argue that Damage is our Cyanogen. I mean, his rom even uses a built in updater like Cyanogen. Plus it rocks.

DamageControl = Our Cyanogen. Duh.
[Hero CDMA General] Jus10o:
We have toast and flipz and darch and treve.. All four are great. Damage is also good when he has the time
[Hero CDMA General] OtisFeelgood:
I agree. We don't need Cyanogen.
[Hero CDMA General] andyjbmiller:
I'm not saying that our devs aren't great but i would like a rom like cyanogenmod.
[Hero CDMA General] mountaindont:
so your all saying youd block his IP if he came aknocking:p

i agree, flipz and toast and damage have truely earned their spots in android history. i hope to see damage over at the evo portal one day :-D
[Hero CDMA General] looneylu:
that g1 had a fully functioning gallery... wow
[Hero CDMA General] danknee:
Agreed! :D
[Hero CDMA General] zenulator:
The hero has fully working 3D gallery with working auto rotate and multitouch. I'm using the same Gallery3D in ZenHero and it should work for every Sprint 2.1 rom.
[Hero CDMA General] Sawawa:
Cyanogen actually releases his source code.

So that's at least one important difference.
[Hero CDMA General] bronxknight28:
We most likely won't get cyanogen around these parts because he stated before he doesn't like sense ui, so let's appreciate what we have,i think our devs are great anyways!
[Hero CDMA General] darchstar:
you guys do know my darchdroid rom is built from cyanogenmod sources, right?
[Hero CDMA General] bronxknight28:
And that too! So i think we will be fine without the actual cyanogen here
[Hero CDMA General] fixxxer2008:
yeah the nexus is a faster phone than our hero.
[Hero CDMA General] fixxxer2008:
it would be nice if we did though. we already lost gbhil on xda and id love to see cyan come on board.
[Hero CDMA General] Leukay:
You're really gonna mention these three without mentioning Darch?! That guy effing rocks. He started with a near cyanogenmod rom port, then ported AOSP 2.1, and an crazy good Legend rom. Im not gonna bash any of our devs, but Darch is definitely top notch. I know prolly just forgot to mention him and that you agree completely with me, I am just giving the guy the proper credit he deserves ;)
[Hero CDMA General] ARoiD:
darchstar owns a cdma hero go buy one asap!

i couldn't agree with you more darchstar is a amazing dev no need to upgrade to a nexus-one i know:eek: i have Darchdroid it owns all the right tweaks and mods and it keeps getting better try it and see

Darchdroid is a clean fast vanilla aosp 2.1 rom with no bloat what so ever if your a fan of cyanogen Darchdroid is the closest thing to a cyanogenmod rom your gonna get on your hero:p

and i'am pretty sure owners of other phone models wish they could have a great dev like darchstar cooking roms for them were lucky to have him xda-devs own;)
[Hero CDMA General] Roman G:
The previous 2 posters speak the truth about Darch, he is one of the few that thinks outside the box, I have been running his Darchdroid 2.1 OC+JIT for over a week without a single problem!

He is the ****!!!!!!!
[Hero CDMA General] abcdfv:
I definatley want to see damage in the evo portal when the time comes.
[Hero CDMA General] troyboytn:
Hope Flipz and Toast have EVO yearnings! ;)
[Hero CDMA General] dirkyd3rk:
cyan mod is awesome but we have some pretty talented devs floating all over this cdma hero, they all rock. i remember my g1 days cyan was the man, i had the only g1 in houston rockin root lol.
[Hero CDMA General] toastcfh:
Damageless isnt Cyanogen for sure and none of us are as good as that dude is by far. but Cyanogen isnt just one guy. its a community of people who work together to make one awesome build. Cyanogen the man does a lot of work on Cyanogenmod and cm-kernel. but if u really sit down and look through the commits in his source u will see hes not the only one who makes Cyanogenmod awesome. there was a time in CDMA HeroC history when we all worked together for one common cause. at the time it was fully functional eclair. there were a few of us, quietcblongs, maejrep,flipzmode, darch, and really the whole community was involved. it seems like the day that flipzmode got the first leak of the .29 kernel and a cdma 2.1 build , the forum became an every man for his self type place. now the dust is settling from that big .29. i think almost every mod u can think of has been done to the leaked Sprint builds to make them as fast and stable as possible. so now its looking back to real development, instead of the next leak. i think if we all came together like the dream, sapphire, and nexus guys we wouldnt be worried about source anymore. we'd have full source and have our own "Cyanogenmod" type AOSP. but until the day comes we all work together for one goal like that, were not gonna have it.

just my take on things
[Hero CDMA General] jerry43812:
I think that was the intention of that action. But no debating here.

My 2 cents from an obvious outsider's POV on these things, is this: the devs here, if they teamed up and worked TOGETHER on a common build and each individual dev wanted to make their own 'update' containing their own personal work, so that way the users have a choice but run off of the same basic ROM, then we'd have something to work off of. I thought about developing, but I quickly changed my mind after flipzmode's move he made. I'd rather watch and learn about the issues and such, rather than try to stick my hand in the proverbial bag of chips too.
[Hero CDMA General] Jus10o:
I say you, flipz and darch all work towards the same rom. And in the end have 1 main rom to show for it all.

I know all have there own things they are doing but it would be nice if the main devs of the forum make one "super" rom.

Then on the side flipz maintains 2.0d for the everyday sprint user and darch for his special roms.

I think the only difference between some of the roms now are just some apps are removed/switched around with a theme thrown on top. Few "devs" actually do real hard work on there roms.

I know theres couple other devs but I see you 3 talking the most (out of the cdma forum devs).
[Hero CDMA General] toastcfh:
well actually i dont team up with anyone. ask anyone who has came to me for help if ive turned them away. ive helped everyone who asks and sometimes i find them and ask them if they could use my help. i build a kernel and have always had the goal to make that kernel fully functional in eclair. imho if we want a "Cyanogenmod" type AOSP build then its gonna take more then just darch. this thread is about a "Cyanogen" for the hero am i right? and what is Cyanogenmod? its and AOSP build and a kernel. what makes that build possible? a whole lot of developers. my intentions werent to say... hey everyone stop building ur own roms and lets work together on one. it was more like if we want to have something as nice as Cyanogenmod, then were going to do as they do and work together to do it. quietcblongs is the only dev i can recall that built his own AOSP build from scratch, not using Cyanogenmod sources. but he been ran off for a long time now.
[Hero CDMA General] darchstar:
I can build you an aosp rom from scratch, doesn't need to be cyanogenmod :p. The only reason i use cyanogenmod is because i like the features included in his source. But ya, i agree with ya, if we didn't have quietcblongs, we would have no real aosp/cyanogenmod/openeclair roms. He definitely needs to come back to these boards.
[Hero CDMA General] toastcfh:
bah i know u can. im just saying there is AOSP and there is Ur own AOSP u know. Cyanogen sources are awesome for sure. lots and lots of work goes into them. like the day the sdk was released they were already fixing and commiting. they are like a AOSP machine over there at Cyanogenmod

edit: i went outside to smoke a cig and was thinkin back to the quietcblongs days. i remebered the sensors fix he had come up with for aosp. anyhow he grabbed a cupcake (1.5) commit from a like 3 months before eclair and merged it with his AOSP eclair build. thus tweaking it a little and got sensors to work. well that was awesome for AOSP but i worked on the HTC eclair build so modifying source wasnt an option. i even tried the baksmali tactic and no dice. well so i had to find my own fix. so i focused on building a new sensor.heroc.so from AOSP source and using it. me and maejrep reversed the cupcake one and manage to get the ball to roll across the screen in teeter(and were friggin stoked btw). but once the ball fell in the hole it was no more sensors. well quietcblongs had known our struggles and he went and found some dream sensor mock ups. he managed to basically acheive the same thing we did. but his would rotate the browser too. anyhow long story short i ended up making some mods to the source he gave me to play with and bam, fully working sensors. aanhow the point here was he had sensors in his build and had no reason in earth to go looking to make a new binary so htc builds could do the same. but he did and he didnt stop there. we always kept in touch and shared ideas on things, even still we keep in touch. but yeah its things lke that i rarely see on the forums anymore. sorry for the rant. just good memories lol
[Hero CDMA General] Julianmgn:
well here is a vendor tree that we can use from darchstar

but im a noob and dont know how to do it lol

Hiya,

Being a bit concerned about my N1's battery use, I've started a spreadsheet in order to log how much battery it uses at night, which is the time when it should be affected the least by user interaction.

Would you be interested in taking part? That way we could get more relevant information, and maybe find out which battery use should be considered normal.

You can see the spreadsheet here, and also here. There is probably a lot of meaningful information missing, but hopefully that can be improved with your advice. Also, if you want to help edit it and log your data, just ask me for an invitation.

Thanks!
[Nexus One General] liam.lah:
perhaps you should speak to persiansown, he is about to start a study regarding undervolting and battery usage maybe you can use his results. If you have any ideas on how to improve the study, i'm sure he will be open to them.

[Droid Eris General] bigfern63:
Good evening,

I recently decided to root my Eris and flash a recovery image (via unlockr.com). After that, I installed Grdlock's VanillaDroid 1.0. So far, it seems very good. However, when I look at the software information now, i notice it no longer says "test keys". It now says "release keys". Does this mean I no longer have a ROOTED 2.1 eris? If it's still rooted, what can I do to go back to 2.1 root? And is there a way to keep my contact's list from disappearing everytime I flash something?

TIA,

David Fernandez
[Droid Eris General] WalkingTaco:
You're still rooted. Made my heart skip a beat the first time i read it too. You're just using a ROM based on a more stable version of 2.1 (one the leaks) but since you already have root and your recovery image you're just fine. I believe the leak with test keys was a prior version and only required really for establishing root.

As far as how to go back, simply flash a new rom after wiping the phone and dalvik cache. Your contacts should be backed up with your main gmail account so its only a matter of logging into your account when setting up the phone with a new rom.
[Droid Eris General] bigfern63:
Thanks a lot for your help, sir. It worked like a charm. Are you familiar with the custom recovery image for the Eris on theunlockr.com? I was curious because I wanted to know if i could use that to do a backup image of my phone.

I switched over to the Evil Eris rom and am much happier with that setup. As for the previous custom rom....can I delete that off my phone via my computer?

Thanks again for all your help, sir. I really appreciate it.

[Hero CDMA General] Kcarpenter:
Google has said many times, especially with the N1, they are not at all interested in being a hardware manufacturer. If you look at their business model hardware doesn't fit in any where. Google's primary revenue is Ads and Searching.

Not to mention that but Google would have to provide an support phone number...I am under the impression there are no out/in bound phone lines at the Googleplex.

Microsoft has been trying to make money off of linux since it was first perceived as a threat. Now that WM is losing market share and android is a linux kernel they trying to make money that way as well. You would think if they really were concerned about patents they would have went after Google instead. Their WM 6.x is a dead OS and I don't seem them selling the Windows 7 Phone cheap enough to gain ground.
[Desire General] MasDroid:
Hi everyone,

i was just wondering about what partition sizes I should set for my memory card using Apps2SD as I am a little unsure. I am currently using a 8 GB SD Card.

I was thinking to set it up with a 32mb swap, 512m-1gb ext2, and the remainder as fat32? Is that suffice? the ext2 size I assume is the space I would dedicate for the installation of apps.

Then after that, should we convert ext2 to ext3?

Please advise :)

Thank you.
[Desire General] alpinux:
I wouldn't use swap at any time. Your phone has 578 MB of Ram - I don't know how much is left for the running system after the substraction for radio, 3d,.... but it still should be around 400MB. Using swap would just slow down your phone.

A 256 MB ext partition for programs is enough.

Greets
[Desire General] abats:
Kind of depends, I will for sure get a bigger partition then 256MB, some games are 20/30MB in size. Will be nice to not worry about those anymore!

Hello guys,

I'm a newbie with Android.

I've not understood: with A2SD I can "migrate" all apps to sdcard or there is a way to choose what to have on the device and what to have on sdcard?

Thanks,

[Desire General] lambrospower:
I have this question too. are all the apps going to the sdcard or you choose where to go ???? or when the phone memory fills the sdcard is used ???

and another question I have is if the sdcard apps are copy paste backup able
[Desire General] MasDroid:
I have read that if set to 0, no swap partition will be created. The default is 32MB.
[Desire General] Nekromantik:
Im not using a swap.

I just created my ext2 using gparted on Linux. I resized the original fat32 and then used the free space to create ext2. No data was lost on original partition after resize :)
[Desire General] MasDroid:
Hi there,

im not a big user of apps and won't end up installing many to the sd card. Would you suggest I set up the partitions as follows:

0mb swap, 512m-1gb ext2, and the remainder as fat32?

I have also read that if you convert EXT filesystem from EXT2 to EXT3 after partitioning, it results in better stability/performance, and by converting the EXT filesystem from EXT3 to EXT4 results in best stability/performance.

Can anyone clarify this please?

Thanks again in advance.
[Desire General] mupper:
EDIT

Found it !
[Desire General] MasDroid:
This is where i'm getting confused... this article, for example, states to allocate 32 MB to the linux-swap partition, 512 MB ext2 partition, and remaining free space as a fat32 partition (for an 8GB SD Card).

It also states this is the most common setup...
[Desire General] TeCH-Guruz:
I used 980mb for my a2sd not swap and everything seems to be working just fine :p
[Desire General] MasDroid:
Im just thinking... the Android OS is designed to do this for you, when it runs low on free memory it starts closing apps based on a ranking system for deciding which is 'least important' to avoid actually running out. If you later switch back to an app that the OS has removed from memory it will be reloaded from internal storage which won't be as quick as if the app was still in memory, but on the other hand it won't be any slower than if it was being loaded into RAM from the swap partition on the SD card.

Actually, I can't see swap helping... Either the Android OS will avoid running out of physical memory as it's supposed to and never actually use the swap partition, or worse it does actually use it as if it was extra physical memory (unlikely, I think) which will interfere with the sophisticated memory management scheme that's already there. Is this the reason why Android phones don't ship configured for swap? maybe because the OS is already doing something better that makes swap unnecessary?

[Desire General] MasDroid:
You will not need to hard reset, just access recovery again via Linux and select the option to Partition the SD in recovery mode, enter the partition sizes you want, then you may want to select the option: convert ext3 to ext4 for improve stability/performance. Yes, use the Gold Card SD.
[Desire General] MasDroid:
I think this is possible, but I'm reluctant to try this as I'm not 100% sure exactly, hopefully this will be made clear in future weeks/months.

convert ext2 to ext3 for stability.
