Flash the batteryfixxx.zip, not any of the others.

If you flashed any of the others, you'll have to nandroid back, and then flash the right fix over. (I had the same lock ups)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Wabem:
I'm having the same lock up problems even with the newest fix(xx).. let me know if starting over from scratch fixes it :D. I love this rom!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dec3ption:
Yup I get stuck on the htc screen after flashing the batteryfixxx :(

EDIT: got it to boot, but now I lock up on the home screen
[Hero CDMA Android Development] feld:
Haven't flashed yet, but

THANK YOU DARCH
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nicksavop:
Yup same as everyone else keeps locking up on home screen
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sporkman:
just did the battery fix no lock up and running perfect
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rgildoss:
okay started from scratch.....

wiped everything, partitioned card again then did 2.6.2 rom, then battery fix, then googleshitz.. then rebooted ....

at first it was very very sluggish but then i realized that the market was installing 12 apps ....after all custimization and app installes reboot again and now seems to be good ( no lag ) .....

gona test it through out the day and see how it goes with battery life ...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] katmandu421:
Never got it to boot, pulled battery and got it to boot through but locks up pretty quick. Bummer.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] andyjbmiller:
+1

seems to be working good. will report back about battery life
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Rizzo19:
Am I correct in assuming that titanium backup doesn't work with this? (I guess assuming is the wrong word, it keeps fc'n LOL)

Also, had a few lockups when first installed, so I redid the install and so far so good. We will see how it works throughout the day.

Have you tried plugging it into to a charger, computer or wall. Make sure "stay awake while charging" is on in the settings and then boot the phone up and dont touch anything at all. It should stay lit the entire time without you having to touch it. Wait for it to load sprint and all apps, give it a good 3mins. Then see if it locks up.

Its worked for me in many situations. A try wouldnt hurt.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
Titanium will work perfectly fine. All it does is install apps.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thematrixkid17:
Mine was locking up on boot too. I wiped dalvik and it worked.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sporkman:
strange the light turns green @ 90% /shrug
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jakejm79:
Phone is now sleeping, Wifi works, but video camera is still FCing, not a big deal, just wanted to point it out since it was mentioned that it was fixed.

Logcat
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rgildoss:
can someone tell me the best settings for SetCPU?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] booyakasha:
I left my phone unplugged last night to see how the battery would do:

7hrs 20min 100% --> 92% :eek::eek::eek:

I'd say the battery drain is fixed! AMAZING JOB DARCH!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Rizzo19:
Weird. I tried running this earlier in the week and titanium would force close everytime. Guess ill try and figure it out then. Never had a problem with it before.

Thought it worked but froze on lock screen again. I'm going to try wiping again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tokuzumi:
I stopped using SetCPU/OC Widget with Fresh Toast 2.1. I would have to restart my phone every day, otherwise, after several hours of up time, I wouldn't be able to answer the phone. The phone was ringing, but the screen was frozen. With this rom, I haven't had a need to use either of those.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] feld:
I've got the same bug. I'm reverting to 2.6.2 for the moment so my phone is usable. I'm sure it will be figured out shortly.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
I originally flashed XX and then went to XXX without nandroiding and it seemed to work (kernal info shows #90). Is there a reason to nandroid back and start over?

Phone is working good (and staying cool!) but is a little slow. I'm not running any sort of OC though, should I? If so, what's the best one to use (and what settings)? Diggin' AOSP though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Stramondroid:
LOL, Asop is for fables, AOSP is for your hero. LOL
[Hero CDMA Android Development] whiteonline:
Darch-

What was changed regarding the phone's identity between 2.6.1 and 2.6.2? Reason I ask is Google Voice no longer syncs on 2.6.2.

I recall a post regarding the name or type of phone coded was different than the Hero. Is it possible to flash your battery fix onto 2.6.1?

Other than the Voice problem, fantastic job!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Stramondroid:
The market auto installs? How did you realize without making the downloads yourself? Im confused..

DS, your the man, take your time, as you see in my sig, Im on Zen currently, but your AOSP is my preferred rom, and I cannot wait to rock it again!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
Darch, great work man, keep it up.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] neonjam:
Fixxx

Fixxx did not work for me. Tried full wipe and flash, clearing dalvik, repartitioned SD card. Always froze during set up. Flashed just base and completed setup then flashed fixxx, and it wouldn't get past the boot screen.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] tejasrichard:
Not only does the market auto-install, but when I had to replace my phone earlier this week (long story), I rooted my new phone, and installed DD2.6.2 in one fell swoop. Guess what? It STILL found which apps I had previously installed and reinstalled them automagically (and no, this was not the same sdcard. it was a brand new one. again, long story). I don't know how he's doing this crazy voodoo, but in the .zip I saw a folder named recovery that i've not seen before with a .sh file in it. I'm guessing there is some scripting hocuspocus going on.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rgildoss:
hmmm just had a huge battery drain .. it was fine all morning and then poof now its down to 30%.. started with a full battery..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dec3ption:
This worked great for me at first...but after rebooting it freezes on the lock screen. Looks like something happens to cause all of the services to die :(

I ran a logcat and made a pastebin:

http://pastebin.com/5euT8n85
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lattiboy:
This is awesome: Phone off charger for almost three hours now, at 96% battery! Used GoogleVoice for some txting and messed with my scheduler.

Thanks for the voodoo that you do Darch!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mcgrathx:
flashed the fixxx last night...had 64% battery when i went to bed. Purposely left it off the charger and woke up to 61%.

Seems like the fixx worked.

Thanks Darch!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dec3ption:
Ugh I'm so jealous of you guys that got this to work :mad:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jakejm79:
There is an option in settings (privacy I believe) about backing up settings to googles server (i.e. your google sign in). Basically it will remember everything you have downloaded from the market, Wifi PWs, bookmarks, etc and when you reset up your phone (after wipe or new phone) it will retrieve all of the above. This is only on the AOSP builds.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KillaKanga:
I was wondering if there is something i have to install to be able to at least send MMS, it hangs whenever i try.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] andyriot:
im having a lot of strange issues with the latest fixxx :/

phone now randomly freezes up and i have to do a battery pull.

i left it off the charger last night after flashing the fixxx to see what happened and when i woke up not only was my phone dead, but i could not turn it on. i plugged it into the wall, still wouldnt turn on. nothing. i dont know what happened, but i had to pull the battery and put it back in to get it to turn on.

also when using the phone it is randomly going back to the homescreen when i havent pushed any button to do so? one time when it did it i noticed that all my signals died out at the same time? i was pushed back to home screen and then my phone signal popped up then my data signal. very strange.

BTW this is all a completely new install. Wiped everything. Flashed 2.6.2, GoogleShits, BatteryFixxx.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
No joy here. Did a complete wipe; installed another ROM (DC 2.08.1) to test boot; another complete wipe (Data, Cache, Dalvik, Ext); flashed DDv262; flashed batterfixxx; rebooted.

After hanging on lockscreen, rebooted and captured logcat from to freeze.

Output of logcat can be found at pastebin:

http://pastebin.com/wgfTFnnT
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dec3ption:
I had a very similar logcat on my first try (posted pastebin earlier). Now I've tried once again and got a little bit of a different logcat

http://pastebin.com/LeMUJqe9
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jakejm79:
Just something else I have noticed, if you try to send an MMS it fails obviously, but even if you delete it, it causes a wake lock issue with the messaging app.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] booyakasha:
OT alert

Are you a pilot? I've never heard anyone outside of military or pilots use this term. just wondering
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mcfarlan:
So far everything is good. Only have two issues....(1) Message telling me that VM will be delivered when data is connected and (2) on incoming calls it is not until the 2nd or 3rd ring that the Caller ID screen displays. Otherwise I am rockin'

Thanks Darch.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
Nope, not a pilot (although I have spent some time jumping from planes which was great joy [chute mandatory]).

This was a common phrase for problems during build and test among the software hacks and systems architects I used to work with. A few of them had been in the military, but don't think there were any pilots in the group. It was also a pretty common term with the electronics engineering group who designed and built our gear.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Stramondroid:
totally weird, I just flashed the rom, after wiping sd/ext, main, and then booted:

I can unlock the lockscreen, but I have NO service. This is what I flashed:

main rom

voicemail

fixxx

All in that order, at the same time...

Any ideas?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rgildoss:
the people that are having problems booting are you all using an ext3 or ext 4 setup? ..i dont use any of that ...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sph33r:
Not that it matters but I flashed batteryfix, batteryfixx, and batteryfixxx on top of each other without any wiping and I had no issues with boot or locking up. I haven't used the phone much today but it's been off the charger since 9am, GPS is on, and I'm at 82% with light use at 3:30pm.

Compare that with the previous day of not having the GPS on and it going from 9am-12pm at being at 65%. This is definitely a HUGE improvement. Sucks so many people are having issues with it. :(

In case we all want to compare software.. I don't use SetCPU, Autokiller, or anything like that. Darch has made it clear that this rom works just fine without it so I stopped using them and haven't noticed any downsides. I also do not use App2SD and do not have any EXT partition on my card.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tokuzumi:
Here is my experience. I flashed in this order:

main rom

google ****s

voicemail

All of this was before the batteryfixxx. If I flashed the voicemail.zip before letting the rom load the first time, and going through the setup, I wasn't able to get service, and I would get force closes for messaging, and something else. It also wouldn't let me touch the android to begin (each time I've setup the rom, I would have to go to "select language", and then I could touch the android to begin...). I recommend to flash:

main rom

google ****s

Let the rom load up into the main android screens

go back into recovery, and flash the voicemail.zip and batteryfixxx.zip.

I always wipe between flashing roms, even if the rom is the same...just to be safe.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tokuzumi:
I am not able to get the visual voicemail app to work. I get a text that I've received a voicemail. I then need to dial in to my voicemail, in order to hear the voicemail.

When I went into settings, I did see my voicemail number was *86, which, when I called that number, it said "Welcome to Helio". I changed it to my number, and will test again. I'll update if this fixes my voicemail issue.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Lukez123:
I just spent an hour flashing and flashing over and over..everytime I would flash the battery fix rright after the rom and google ****s and my phone kept freezing and just wouldn't work properly..I then just flashed the rom and google..booted, set everything up...then went back and flashed the battery fix..I noticed that the fix made the overclock default at 768 instead of 710.. my phone freezes at 768 and runs like ****..if ur phone is the same then flash everything except the battery fix, dl an overclock program then flash the fix so when it boots u can change the speed
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jakejm79:
Hmmmm that could explain my slight lagginess, my phone never ran well at 768 unless both max and min were set at that. Maybe if this is true we could get a 2nd batteryfixxx.zip at a speed of 710?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] duffkitty:
Something in the battery fixxx kills the GPS in Navigation. It works until I flash the fix and then it'll work or a few seconds and lose signal.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] feld:
That's a good idea, but I still can't get it to boot reliably. We might need another fix that includes a kernel with the OC set to 710
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jakejm79:
That is what I meant, the batteryfixxx.zip contains the kernel I believe so you need one where it is set to a default max of 710.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] feld:
Yes, I was just reaffirming it. It does include the kernel -- I've checked.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
The kernel should already be defaulted at 710.. It runs at 710mhz, but if you install an OC'ing app to run at 768mhz.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jakejm79:
I dont think it is, tho I could be mistaken, if I install OC widget, on the old kernel it would have 710 set has the max, with the one in the batteryfixxx.zip it if shows 768 has the max before you make any changes.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
:-/, ur right, apps2sd doesn't work either, amirite?

this update.zip should fix apps2sd and reset default max at 710.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] boredmug:
I can't figure out how to get pics to save to the SD card. Anyone?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gu1dry:
Should it still be revision #90?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jakejm79:
Actually apps2sd seemed to be working, but I didnt start with a fresh install and wipe.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sph33r:
I know it's probably been reported but disabling wifi tethering causes the entire phone to freeze up.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
yes

Is wifi tethering included in the rom???
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sph33r:
No it's not.. is that your way of saying it's not supported? :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
Its my way of saying if its not included in the rom, take it up to the developer of the said application and ask them for help
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sph33r:
Eh.. ok. It was working fine in 2.6 and it works fine in 2.6.2 until you try to stop it, then the entire phone freezes. If you don't care, so be it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
:-/, don't put it that way. I never said i don't care, its just i really don't use that app, and u'd probably get better dev support from the actual developer, as its his source and whatnot.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
Though it might be fixable within the app. The thethering app on any rom with toast's newest .29 kernel freezes the phone when disabling.

Someone on DC with the kernel i posted even reported it.

Also (not to darch) use Advance task killer or similar to try and kill the app when you are done. Instead of ending it from the app.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sph33r:
Just for reference.. someone has flashed the GoDmOdE kernel that Jus10o created for DC roms and is having the same problem.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6622027&postcount=5124

I guess it could be related to the kernel but maybe that's jumping to conclusions. I'm about to try to get a logcat of what happens when it locks up.

EDIT: Jus10o beat me to it :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sph33r:
In case anything stands out to anyone, here's a logcat of my phone that includes waking the phone up, started WiFi Tethering, me stopping it, and the phone freezing. Logcat actually kicked me back to the command prompt at that point.

I'll pass this on to the developer if we're sure this doesn't stem from the godmode kernel.

http://pastebin.com/YxSLdSwb
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gadgetfl:
This makes sense, as I also can not run @ 768 but 710 works fine. When I set to 768 I lock up hard. When I flash XXX I lock up hard.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
Darch fixed it for everyone..

My stats:

Complete wipe (cache, dalvik etc)

Flash 2.6.2

Google ****s

batteryfixxx

ADW Launcher

No ext3, ext4, apps2sd

everything seems to work great... unplugged charger, went from 100% to 80% in 4 hours with little to no use. Its definitely better than it was if not ideal. Otherwise everything else seems good.

[edit] still seem to have somewhat of a battery drain.

went from 80 to 76 in 9 minutes with some texting...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danaff37:
I can't flash this rom to test(not even the 710 one), but have you guys tried to use wireless tether 2.01? He made it to work on g1 with toasts new kernel there, I had to instal it on my buddies g1 when I rooted it, may work better on new kernel for you guys. I'm using the 1.60 version on zen's rom, as it's the only overclock I can run, but that's version #65 of the kernel which is why it probably works. The #90 might need the new version.

I second this. Battery will drain if there is any use what so ever. With out use is just regular. Also I was texting [101mb of space] so that was the only app open and I went from 76 to 72. Just to get the ideal of the battery drain. But nonetheless its better. :)

The first post says its preferred, not mandatory

Camcorder FCs? no one else said they have that problem :-/
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pwrmedia:
Just flashed both the ROM and GS. Booted up w/ just the ROM first, then flashed GS. Market appears no problem, w/ previous downloads showing.

System won't allow me to run Root Explorer though. SU recognizes it, but it FC's upon open..

Using SetCPU rather than OC Widget w/ this particular ROM, 768/633, and all animations set to fast speed. ROM flies, as expected w/ Darch build :D

Good work on this one. Let me know if you have any clue about why Root Explorer wouldn't open!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jiongtl:
I can't start wifi, it will make my phone not responding and crash before I can turn off it.

Yep, it's been reported by a few people actually..... I can add my name to the confirm list as well.

Possible bad zipfile w/ latest update, Darch.

Tried 2x, once w/o wipe and once w/. Gets 5 seconds in and says (bad).

MD5Sum correct?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sph33r:
That's the MD5 for darchdroid-26-final.zip that was posted last night. I have the same MD5 for patched as you do.

It might be. I forgot to edit the md5sum before I left my house
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gomorrah:
Hey Darch, is there any way you could tell me what to pull out of the new patched version that fixes GPS? I dont have any of the other issues other people are having and dont want to tempt fate. So if possible Id like to take the fix and push it to my phone without flashing a different version. Thanks and as usual stellar work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MILH0U5E:
Gps still not working.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] blulitespecial:
A couple others mentioned it. When you go into camera and hit the switch to go to camcorder it will work for a second and then FC.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] andyjbmiller:
Darch, I flashed the patched release and still can't use gallery or youtube.

Edit: Camcorder will work for a little while then force close also
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
if u think its kernel related, it'd be more advisable to get me a dmesg, rather than a logcat
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sph33r:
I agree but unfortunately as soon as you click to disable wifi, the entire phone locks up like a brick and everything stops responding. This is the best I can do although I don't feel it captured any useful info.

http://pastebin.com/86sf45rT
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
hmm, my phone doesn't and i am using the same kernel version as u r and the same module.

and u know u can still access adb shell to logcat and dmesg after the phone crashes, right
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sph33r:
Once the phone locks up, nothing works. ADB sees no device so I can't shell to logcat or dmesg or anything. :confused:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DevinXtreme:
Darch, you are amazing. I can't believe how awesome you are. I wasn't really having battery issues before the fixxx, but now I don't know if I'll ever have to charge my phone again. I did some mild texting today and took one phone call. 12 hours since unplugging, I'm at 86%. You are amazing. Once again, add a donate button.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obelisk79:
It's a newer build of the kernel, it would stand to reason that there could be a slight issue with the wlan.ko if it wasn't compiled at the same time with it right? Just a thought.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
its definitely not that. if you would've saw in his pastebin, the tiwlan0 interface is clearly present, meaning the module successfully loaded
