Darch, dude, this is amazing. I don't know what voodoo magic you did but man I gotta tell you, this the first rom I have run since 1.5 that pairs with my freakin' POS Pioneer Avic D3 car stereo for BOTH voice and music - I'm floored and thrilled! I could always get music but voice would always return an "invalid device" message.

Some other things noted. The lock screen is now much snappier :D

Gallery (not the newest patch you just posted) seems to be working (so far).

Battery? Too soon to tell.

Overall snappiness of this rom is fantastic (not running any sort of OC, just naked).

One very cool thing I noticed is that when I wiped and then flashed this rom it automatically downloaded and reinstalled all 17 of my Market apps - awesome! Is that a new feature? I was just going to load a quick fresh version and then head to the Market for my apps but they just automagically downloaded and installed.

You sir have truly outdone yourself - me happy :D:D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] neonjam:
I noticed that in 2.6.1 too! I flashed at work because I was bored, decided to play Slacker radio when I was closing up and went to the market to redownload it and...it was already there!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rgildoss:
yup have to agree BT seems to work very very good now even with calls ... This is my day to day ROM from this point on..

one question Darch, will you be adding these small patchs to the DS uploader ?

once again you have done a fantastic JOB WITH THIS ROM ...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] johnsongrantr:
100%wake is still happening for me.

But one amazing thing, voicemail notification is gone.

Also with setcpu the max under custom is 528, default without making any changes is 758 or whatever, after you touch the slider it only allows 528.. I don't mess with oc much so I'm probally not doing something right.

Overall pretty happy with update, 2 gallery apps is somewhat confusing, but I don't use it anyway so doesn't matter to me.

Did a full wipe and I noticed apps repropergated as well, minus maps and a couple other I had to reinstall manually, confusing seeing everything show up after a wipe though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
No its not. spare parts is lying, fact of the matter. base it off your battery life after a set period of time
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Papa Smurf151:
any news on mms recieving. I want to run this and port my themes over but have to have mms. Thanks in advance
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
My computer overheated and turned off on me while compiling :-/ . I'll update you guys on how it goes
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thedudejdog:
i made some necessary changes.;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
oh, sorry. idk. i don't spend too much time app investing, sorry.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Papa Smurf151:
wow that is some great accuracy there
[Hero CDMA Android Development] andyriot:
so excited for the update!!! finally can stop carrying around my charger haha (was too good of a rom to not use as a daily before the battery fix)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rgildoss:
Re:

oh my phone. Fully charged in one hour.. is that normal?

-------------------------------------

Sent from my Hero CDMA
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rgildoss:
okay one last thing ( suggestion )

since this ROM is more mainstream ( day to day use ) maybe someone can start a thread deticated to Widgets, live wallpapers and other PIMP MY PHONE type things specific to this ROM ?? ( tested and working ) ..

i would do it myself but i just dont have the time and probably would suck at it ... maybe someone who has alittle more time ??

just a thought
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gu1dry:
Ya battery life is still not fixed. Been running for 3 hrs & battery went from 65% to 15%.

Also it still says I have a voicemail & I can't clear it out.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
ran for 4 hours went from 100 % to 75 %. idk man
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Papa Smurf151:
i will theme and port what ever as soon as mms works. I can not go with out it. i get way to many pics
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
About the setcpu.. 1 one can write the text in the setcpu.txt yourself to support 768. Or you can do it the easy way and just select the very top choice "Auto something" and it will read all the frequencies on the kernel for you.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] marcusva79:
Noob question. I tried to use the instructions on how to remove the voicemail icon on the the first page. But the link is broken. is there another way.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
this link??

thanks man. kinda alot of stuff to do when I dont have another phone to connect. But screw the icon still great rom. ha. hows the mms going.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ukcatsfan:

hey guys, is there any eta on the update for the mms fix. im running ice, just came from fresh toast cause of all the bugs, and the mms is all thats holding me back. i look forward to pics from my wife of my 2 little girls way too much:D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] justinisyoung:
hmm... it still seems as if opengl doesn't work 100%

it works after a reboot, but something weird happens after you lock your phone or something...

so any games that need opengl wont work well if your phone has been on for awhile, it seems.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
Try this

[Hero CDMA Android Development] PRGUY85:
Tested DS Updater. Downloaded the Update but couldn't install it after reboot, it said it couldn't find the file.

Update: It hadn't downloaded the entire file. It worked now.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
The newest 2.6.2 download didnt work for me. It just says "opening package" then sends me back to the recovery home page. Any other rom flashes fine.

Im redownloading now to see if it fixes it.

EDIT: the redownload worked.. its flashing now.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] marcusva79:
i am still getting 100 percent awake time. am i doing anything wrong.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
No.. theres no way to really go wrong if you wiped everything before flashing.

I just flashed the rom. Ima unplug it to see if i still have the 100% awake time.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
.... is that what spare parts is telling u?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] marcusva79:
yup must be lying. think i remember you saying something about that.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thedudejdog:
spare parts stole my gf... that son of a *****
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
Lol, spare parts is still cool for other things, such as pimping your notification bar... and maybe your gf :p
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
Would you be able to put out an update.zip that will just simple not allow the voicemail icon to ever show up on the taskbar. Like mess up the line in the code of when it would call the voicemail icon to the taskbar.

I use google voice so it uses a separate icon, and i hate the voicemail one.

Not complaining, or saying its a must. Just throwing the idea up there.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
hey darch the camera in 2.6.2 only goes up to 3M for me. just installed 2.6.2 after a wipe.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
lol, it goes up to 5MP, just the text seems to be a bit blotted out when you switch
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jayjay7411:
Did this patch also fix 3d games like homerun battle????
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
Yea i still have the 100% awake time. I checked in spare parts and it said 99.9. So I let my phone sleep and I just surfed the internet and blew off time and my battery went from 75% to 68% in 5mins.

Though it wasnt a long test. I dont think it should of dropped that much. I put it right back to sleep, so ill update the results in about 30mins or so.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
yes.........
[Hero CDMA Android Development] marcusva79:
what are you talking about the keyboard is great in here. i am just waiting for mms. arh
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
its possible, just push it to /system/app
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jack-Johnson:
just tried to do a nandroid backup with this said error do it adb shell
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
If you are doing a nandroid+ext partition you have to use the newest recovery on the first page. If you just do a nandroid then it should work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] marcusva79:
where do i get the vvm app from? do i have to download that link or is on 2.6.2
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
About the awake time.. I did a completely clean install, no apps auto downloaded this time and im losing 10% battery every 30mins with my phone asleep.

adb cry
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
Look at the very bottom of the first post.. Its in small letters under Attachments.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] julwo:
for the people who said they have 100% awake i don't now if u are using or not but i used Set CPU i choose auto detect and my time without sleeping is in 4 hour is 17.7% my battery is look like run just fine :) idk if that is a fix to every one but work for me
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
Just wanted to join the battery plummeting club. Was at 54%, watched a movie and only checked email twice during it (gotta stop that!), when the movie was over battery was at 19% :(

Spare Parts shows 100% awake (I know, must be lying but still...) Some folks have the battery issue and some don't (like Darch), just wondering if there might be a common app we are all running that is a killer. LauncherPro Beta comes to mind first since it seems so popular. Any other thoughts? This rom smokes all others but the battery croaking so fast is a real bummer.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] coldsweat:
After fresh installs/wipes and/or patches, 3d gallery is still not working here. GPS is solid but it seems the battery is still going quickly.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
i think you also need a libt9.so to push to /system/lib
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DevinXtreme:
To everyone having battery problems:

What Overclock tool are you using? I use OC Widget and experience the 100% awake problem, but some people use SetCPU and are saying it isn't affecting them. I'm just trying to see if it is actually a bug, or some app we're using causing it.

This question is for you, too, darch.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
I'm not running anything, just raw AOSP and have major battery drain. Phone even feels warm.....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
as above poster said, are u using anything for OC? I just leave my phone without any OC apps and don't experience **** drains
[Hero CDMA Android Development] coldsweat:
I haven't used any applications to manipulate the processor speed but having battery drain as well. Actually haven't installed anything else since a fresh wipe.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
I didnt use one with my most recent post about the battery drain. I had no app but what came with 2.6.2 and it still drained.

I just nandroid to a 2.6.1 and flashed everything over top. I have maybe 10-15apps downloaded. And its not draining anywhere near as fast and using setcpu.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
Not sure you are talking to me but if you are then no, I don't run any OC app at all. Just flashed the rom and installed some apps, nothing having to do with OC at all. There must be a common app out there that we're using that's killing the battery. We'll find it, we're a persistent lot!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] julwo:
the 3D gallery used to work before but 2.6.2 now when i turn the phone the gallery get broken
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
thats why i put two gallery.apks in the rom. one for 2d with no probs and one for 3d thats **** unless you tried out my fix a couple pages back
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
I just flashed the GalleryFix you posted a few pages back and still get the corruption if the orientation is changed. Battery is my main concern at the moment though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DevinXtreme:
Well, several have said that they're using this ROM naked and still have the wakelock issues.

I have an idea... I'll get back to you guys if it works.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] julwo:
its me or video camera used to work on 6.2.1:confused: cuz dont work on 6.2.2
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Decad3nce:
Yeah, I can confirm this.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jack-Johnson:
whoa this thing just went from 66% battery at 2:50 am to 52% battery at 3:05 am just sitting there unused on my desk.........thats to bad... i really want to use this.... using 2.6.2 with oc widget 768-516 screen on 480-224 screen off.... and i used quick system info to see battery details
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Avalaunchmods:
heres a couple of ideas for people with 100% awake and bad battery.

1. use autokiller. i know everyone is still in mad about the location issue but idc at all. ill tell you where im at all the time haa. but i set auto killer to strict. 60 mbs free and nothing ever closes early.

2. use taskiller. although i know everyone says task killers are bad, you only need it for one thing. kill everything at boot

3. use setcpu. now here comes the important part. to get the best stepping that i have found with both the oc widget and setcpu. when you start the rom, slide the min slider all the way up and down. now set MAX to 729600 and MIN to 245760. now touch the screen and it steps up to 729 perfectly. any higher it will stay at 480 99% of the time. even while sleeping. i get an entire day with this setting under heavy usage.

now #3 is very important to keep processor stepping reasonable. any higher it will step to 480 while sleeping. any lower you lose horse power.

all this is my personal experience. and if that does not fix it, flash another boot.img. touch wont work but let it idle and logcat it and see whats running.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
Are you saying to do ALL of these or just pick one? I know, it's late.... :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Allen B:
Hello all,

First time posting so here goes...

1. Performed wipe and flashed 2.6.2. Noticed massive battery discharge. According to phone status and Spare Parts, phone has not gone into sleep mode for hours.

2. Installed SetCPU and followed instructions above. Battery loss a little slower, but still discharging rapidly. Same as before, phone status and Spare Parts reporting phone not entering sleep mode.

3. Installed Gallery3D fix. Gallery3D starts getting sluggish after about an hour or two. Ended up removing via Adb.

4. Camera will force close when I select Video mode. I can slide slider to Video, but as soon as I press button to start, force close app pops up.

I would like to add that I love this mod, and can't wait to see it running flawlessly.

Edit - Did a little test. Fully charged phone and placed on my desk for 1 hour. Did not use the phone at all. Battery dropped 14% over the 1 hour.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
Gallery3D starts getting sluggish after phone sleeps. Also neocore becomes horrible after first sleep. Any ideas?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rgildoss:
man it is so crazy how we all have diffrent problems ...

this newest release gave me a great battery life...

just an FYI , i have no OC software i just cleaned, factory reset, wiped EVERYTHING ( batterty included ) , installed ROM and all is working.. Phone was fully charged , unplugged and left it over night ... still have 59% after 8 hours of sleep ( not perfect but way better ) ... i have no extra software other then what comes with the rom ( and Facebook app ).

I truely thing all these diffrent problems we are seeing are related to applications and other stuff we have installed in the phone...

By the way i did not use EXT3 or EXT4 , just normal ROM install ...and i am still using RA.1.6.2

i got everything work even the galery is working for me ....

i think we should now start looking on whats on our phones ( software ) and start comparing things ... it has to be the only way to get a handle on all these diffrent issues..IMO..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] captainblue:
Very nice rom

I love this rom but I can't seem to get tethering working. Anybody got any ideas?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
isn't there an app called wireless tether that can do that? the option through settings currently doesn't work... yet
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mikethechap:
What I expected... What is...

When I loaded this on to my hero, I expected that it would look okay, and have lots of glitches (though I have not see darchstar do slovenly work on these before). I just expected it to be at best cute and usable "somewhere in the future."

What I found was entirely different; A blisteringly fast interface (though I am awaiting to see if the use of apps kludges up the speed); A well-thought foundation of tools; and a more integrated interface that looks and plays well.

Concerns at this point are: battery life; as noted above, slow-down in day-to-day use. As to the software included, the one I would with for would be the keyboard with speech. I would assume I can push that myself.

Overall, congratulations. This is beautiful. I never expected anything like this out of my hero...

Thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] julwo:
Check the text msj I think is something wrong with that too or is just me??

Never mind is working but for some reason don't let me send this. "\0>€ √" And I don't think that make it become a mms
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
I'm trying to replicate the minority (majority?) of people that have battery issues. i just can't. 3 hours straight of just playing music with the screen off and i don't feel my phone heating up, nor do i see a major decrease in battery life (80%-65% in those 3 hours). I'll be the first to admit its not the best battery life you'll see on your phone, but its not horrible
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dec3ption:
I wish you could replicate it..cause it's the only thing keeping me from using this daily :( Last night I went to sleep at 99% and woke up 7 hours later at 42%
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Zexter:
I absolutely love this rom now. I've been trying out the latest roms. Trying to see if any are stable enough to compete with damage's latest n greatest. This rom isnt slowing down or lagging as of yet.

The only thing I don't like is that the only photo app is "gallery". Which is annoying and a pain the ass.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thedudejdog:
darch. can you supply me a nandriod backup from your phone? do a wipe or whatever before, but i'm getting partial wakelock on android system? i think it must be phone/ hardware related. i did a wipe and a flash without signing into google
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
What did i say about spare parts and being unreliable :-/. neways, what good would a nandroid do? i mean the only thing that could possibly be of any help is that data image from the nandroid, but thats highly unlikely it will help. I will supply it though, if you really want it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
Wow, I wish I could get that out of my phone. Besides some 'normal' Market apps the only questionable one would be LauncherPro Beta (basically because it is relatively new and a beta) and perhaps the Keyboard with Voice which I loaded. Beyond that all the other apps I loaded are major ones (Google Voice, Where, USAToday, Pandora etc.) Frustrating.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thedudejdog:
eh its not a bfd. that bastard spare parts is at it again....

i'm going to reflash and flash some radios, prl, and pri updates to see if that does it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PRGUY85:
So Darch, you getting that battery life without OC'ing then?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] marcusva79:
any luck on mms recieving. i tried messing with it yesterday but no luck. I did push the new version of youtube and wireless teather. both work great. thanks for putting in a new gallery.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
PRI? Didn't think about that although I cant see that causing the issue. That said, I'm running PRI 2.11 as that one allows me to USB tether (on other roms), could that be an issue? So willing to change it if it fixes the battery as I love this rom but I'm not near a charger all day and it will be a problem. I'm running the latest Sprint release radio if that matters.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thedudejdog:
i think it could be, that's why some people are having trouble (me) and some aren't.

i'm going to jump through whatever hoops i have to but i will get this figured out today/tomorrow

i'm about to 1.29 RUU then pri and prl
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PRGUY85:
Can Darchstar confirm this indeed works?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PRGUY85:
What about battery life?

I flashed the latest ROM over 2.6.1 without wipe, have no Autokiller. Just OC widget and battery drained from 90% to 48% in 6 hours while I was sleeping.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thedudejdog:
* MOD EDIT *

Flaming removed.

hey, can you trim this down a little? i want to add it to my sig but its too long, needs to be under 500 characters

k thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mcgrathx:
i can attest that the battery drain is fixed on this latest update. only had half charge at 1:00am last night. woke up this morning at 8 and had more than a third charge. dont have specific percentages, but this is tell tale. previously if i had nearly full charge, id wake up in the morning and the phone would be dead.

i can live w/o MMS... thanks for the hard work Darch.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] andyjbmiller:
how do i get vvm to work? I flashed the zip and have vvm but when i get a voicemail it does not download it i still get messages from android saying i have a message

edit: ok i saw it was a problem for some a few pages back. sorry
[Hero CDMA Android Development] andyriot:
well ill throw in another 2 cents

i still have bad battery drain -- not using any oc app. just unplugged from charger about an hour ago and ive been watching it steadily drop with no usage at all.

also video force closes again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rgildoss:
No Ext3 or Ext4

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
Ha i came on hoping to fine a solution to the battery drain.

I went from 100% to 39% in 4 hours while i was sleeping. And i only had a 60sec screen awake time.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rgildoss:
okay im trying to activate my phone can anyone tell me what the ## commands are for this rom ? the normal ##123456# is not working
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
I dont think it has any.. It doesnt have the apk in system/app to allow those commands.

EDIT: i think.. im not 100% sure

DAMN.. guess i will flash Sprint Rom first ...****z
