I'm sorry I if this sounds elitist, but there are a bunch off new guys here, and it needs to be said. There is nothing wrong with trying to learn more about how our phones work, and I'm glad so many people are interested in learning instead off just getting others to do the work for them.......but:

1. This is a dev rom thread in the dev section. This is not the place to ask questions about the basics.

2. A lot of the questions being asked have been answered numerous times before. Spend a few days reading and researching, then, if there is still stuff you don't understand, post your question in the proper place. In other words, don't bust into a rom thread and start asking questions about how adb works. It just makes threads longer, and finding info harder. No offense, but if you can't make the effort to learn as much as you can on your own, when all it takes is a little time and patience, why should anyone else take the time to answer your questions?

Hopefully, by this point, you have realized that I'm not flaming anyone, and am trying to help folks understand why they sometimes get a rude response (which, by the way, is also unnecessary). There are lots of folks that would be more than willing to help, if you show that you are putting in some effort, and not just trying to get the answers handed to you. Just so you're not surprised, if you go into irc and start asking a bunch of questions about what many here would consider basic technique (and which mostly already have guides written about them either here or in other sections of xda), don't be surprised if some one gives you flack. It is not elitism, people just get tired of answering the same questions over and over. I'm not saying their response is right, but assuming they are just a$$hats who don't want to share the info isn't correct either. Many people will be more than willing to answer any question you have (myself included, as far as my knowledge goes), but depending on the question, the answer you receive might be something on the lines of "go read the guide in the wiki, and czech out this link."

If anything in this post seems harsh or out of line to you, you might consider re-reading the revised rules on posting (you did read them, right?) and taking them to heart. If this seems like a lot of work, that's because it is. If the prospect of having to put in some outside effort sounds unappealing, maybe phone modding isn't the hobby for you....not trying to be a pr!ck here, just staying it as I see it.

Have a nice day!

Woo, this is fast! Got a 4.9 score on Linpack.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] raven206:
Can't believe how fast it is either!! It took probably about 6 seconds for it to sync up via bluetooth to my Sony head unit in the car. Calls are more clear, even Slacker doesn't freeze up when I change songs via the head unit. I'm stoked to see what the devs can do with this thing from here. For now, I am content to live without GPS or camera.

Well put sir. I hope the message get's through.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrinehart93:
Hmm, yeah I agree with that. Well said :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrinehart93:
Hmm, yeah I agree with that. Well said :) Mostly though, people can't be afraid to experiment with their phone. People have to understand that it's almost impossible to brick your phone for good, because most of the time, the problem is easily solved or a RUU can fix it.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] mprunty:
Thanks to everyone who help put this together. Im loving it so far. Can't wait for a things like gps and camera to be fixed.

Keep up the excellent work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] taicor:
What exactly do they mean by need a new kernel? Do we need HTC to release a .32 kernel source now? I'm kind of wanting to keep GPS, so I can't use the 2.2 rom for right now.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aven_soulgazer:
I've got 2.2 up and running. I know it is a dev rom, I know it has the sensors patched and i ran that patch. They work, I'm not complaining. In my opinion froyo seems to be a little quick to rotate the screen over, seems like the slightest tilt turns it. Does anyone else feel its a little too quick with that? I dont want to turn it all the way off but wish i could change the sensitivity of the rotation.

Otherwise it is great for everything that does work. Great job and thank you.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] animal7296:
I am not having that problem as of yet. Yes it does turn fast but this is a fast rom. I believe you will get used to it if you play with it for a while.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] SavvyX4:
Per Sprint on Twitter:

HTC EVO will be updated to Android 2.2; Samsung Moment & HTC Hero will not. Future devices launching w/ 2.1 will be also be updated to 2.2.

----

Just more evidence that you guys getting 2.2 up and kicking ass on our Heroes are awesome! Thanks for all your hard work, I know we all hugely appreciate the effort.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aven_soulgazer:
It wasnt the speed it was turning. A tilt of 10-15 degrees would cause my screen to rotate. Seems to be better now though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] heroid007:
apps2sd?

How to make apps2sd work with this ROM? Should I make ext partition? Has anyone played with a2sd yet?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aven_soulgazer:
Im pretty sure they said a2sd doesnt work and you cant have an ext partition. I could be wrong.

Froyo has its own way of doing a2sd
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sdrr00:
i completely understand that, however i have a problem with people basically telling you to sit down and shut up when your trying to learn. yes, i had a few basic questions that i could have figured out elsewhere, but i didnt and was able to get this up and running relatively quickly.. and the fact that its a dev rom holds almost no water since the process was so simple all i need was to be pointed in the right direction. anyway, the build rocks, its like i have a new phone
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PRGUY85:
I´ve been testing the latest build release on IRC. Battery life has been decent, comparable to Darchstar 2.7, perhaps a bit better. It is smoother and faster, and browser is speedier. There are other UI elements of it that I like, specially the optimized Search features. Let´s hope the great devs can port .32 kernel and give us GPS/camera. Right now my biggest gripe is not being able to use location anywhere on the phone.

Great job so far though.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] aquarinard:
i couldnt sinc my facebook. I signed in but its not showing up in my sinc settings under gmail. Is there any thing i can do?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ace586:
Just a guess, but this problem seemed to be solved under Darchdroid 2.7 by uninstalling Facebook and then reinstalling it from the market. Worked perfectly for me, and I remember seeing a lot of similar success stories in the thread. (It was a nagging problem that received a lot of discussion.)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pritch1011:
same here this rom rocks besides it shortcommings its super fast ty:eek:

Vending.apk

Darch has done an amazing job so far, and the ROM is already near perfect, and I can't imagine how good it will be when he bestows the kernel unto us.

For those of you who haven't tried it yet, the only lag I run into is with the launcher. When I move between home screens there is a bit of lag.

For everyone who has tried it: Has anyone had visual issues with the Market? The .pngs haven't been acting right for me. I edited the .apk if anyone else is having the issue, just push the new vending over the old one.

Vending.apk is at = mediafire . com / ? uhytdmmnzmn

Sorry, I never post here, I just look and stay out of the way.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] akijikan:
Everyone should strive to be more like you.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aven_soulgazer:
I get the market image issues too.

Do you have overclock set? Mine is set and only lags when waking up.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dbldown768:
I installing this software yesterday and i'm am loving it so far. I know there are a lot of things that still need to be ironed out but the speed of the device is so much better. google maps and other things dont work are to be expected. One thing that does work is that my phone will now sync with my panasonic home phone over link to cell just fine. amazing that htc screwed this up with 2.1 release which is why i was stuck on 1.5 until now. i can't wait for the devs to improve on this rom. thanks for all the hard work.

btw, i hear there is a way to add a dictionary to the phone. Does anyone have one somewhere uploaded?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
Maybe ask in the irc.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dbldown768:
yeah no one seemed to know on there at the moment. I just heard there was some way to pull it from one of darchstar's roms i guess.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
Maybe ask in his thread. I believe it can be fixed by using the deodexed N1 Froyo IME but I don't have time to check and I've never messed with the dictionary in the IME.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Decad3nce:
Just have to grab the main.dict from some other LatinIME... working on it right now.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Decad3nce:
Here's the dictionary fix: http://www.4shared.com/file/nSMGZ2aO/DictionaryFix-signed.html

Just flash from recovery.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
Good stuff.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] raven206:
It is amazing to see how far this has come from a few days ago when the source dropped. I for one tried it and was amazed by how quick and efficient the rom works. For now I went back to Aloysius 2.1 until all the bugs are ironed out with camera and gps. Thought I could live without it but will be content to wait for the new kernel to work out those bugs. Thanks to the devs for once again, making "end of life" an obsolete term for our HTC Hero. You guys are the best! :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
I changed the title of the thread. :rolleyes:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] brokentoaster24:
Oh noes..so many precious mflops :p
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stillryan:
i know i should post this in the irc but I'm at work and thats blocked here. I've got the froyo running and followed the directions to the letter and it's working great.

I figured i'd try that flash 10.1 apk and see if it would work with the froyo build and it does not. It actually makes the browser just close after you open it. It would not even load up goolge.com. Deleted flash and it started working fine again. No issue with the ROM, just a little quirk that i didn't see posted in the thread.

If anyone here is in the irc and checking this thread, will you let them know about the flash thing please? Maybe they can look into that, or see if it's even worth trying or not.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kdragon75:
This is taken from the IRC page for those to lazy to look for them selfes. :D

*Added by me*

-Flash causes the browser to just close

-Google Maps is Force Close

-And many more..

Please keep in mind this is all being worked on.. I will update this as time permits.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aven_soulgazer:
They were talking about flash not working the other night in irc. Maybe the new kernal will help. If not maybe someone will figure it out once the new kernal is in place.

Is there any way to get the xda keyboard working with this? I tried hi res froyo and low res 1.6+. Hi res no errors, but never shows up. Low res gives some error message.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dec3ption:
Maps will FC until GPS is fixed I believe
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stillryan:
Cool. I wasn't sure if anyone had cared to try that or not, figured things like camera and gps were more important to work on than flash.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrinehart93:
This is off-topic, but for some who knows what reason, I was just banned from the IRC server for "spam". However, I hadn't talked at all... so I was banned for no reason. Can someone unban me?

[Hero CDMA Android Development] stillryan:
Me too. This is just like when i had my old Diamond. There was the 6.5 leak from somewhere overseas (i think it was China) and the guys here and at ppcgeeks were making early alpha builds. I was flashing new, buggy (but improved) builds almost daily and able to give feedback. That was fun. I'm feeling that fun again now that we have Froyo and running software that's not going to be officially released to our heros. The fact that it runs so smooth is just a really nice bonus.

I have been using Ic3Rom v2.6.3 as my daily ROM. This is a fast ROM. I consistently get 3.5 MFLOPS on Linpack.(JIT enabled)

I have been checking the speed of this ROM with Linpack

Initial ROM

= 1.9-2.2 MFLOPS

Update-1

= 2.9-3.1 MFLOPS

Hopefully we reach that magic number ......... 450% performance increase with FROYO!!!!!!!!!:D

Hero Froyo

Does anyone think after we get the source code an actually working Froyo ROM for the Sprint Hero will be possible? I mean with all the components of the phone camera, bluetooth, sms, all the general stuff? If I can contribute in any way I'll be glad to. I feel we need to put pressure on Sprint to give us Hero users some kind of upgrade option as the Hero is less then a year old and here it is most likely getting stopped cold to make way for the Evo.

I don't know about you but I don't have five hundred bucks to blow and buy the Evo flat out. I kinda feel like the horse with the carrot dangling in front of them. I'm very grateful for the talents here, had I waited on Sprint I would have went crazy. I just don't think its fair to try and cut us out of the Froyo update and move on with a new device less then a year after the Hero. Most people used their upgrade to get a Hero and are locked for a year or longer. They need to give us a trade in program or something. My main gripe is flash, thats what I really want.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] setix:
maybe no with sense ui, but an AOSP rom sounds reasonable
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Darkshneider:
Just like 1.6 was back in the day.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] misterhearn:
Hero Froyo

Thank you guys for the quick reply, I like Sense UI but I'll be glad to ditch it for a good Froyo ROM. The race is to beat Froyo to the Evo lol. People are really acting like the Hero is dead and it shouldn't be!

It bugs me that the N1 was suppose to be on all the carriers and Sprint and Verizon decided against it. I woulda bought an N1 and just used Sprint as my carrier. The N1 is Google's baby so we it getting all the updates first is a given.

Well just wanted to thank you guys for all your hard work, I'm starting to study coding some I'm in the n00b zone but if I can help, I'll be glad to. One last thing does anybody have a ROM they would recommend? I'm running Damage Control 2.08.1, its pretty good for the most part but I tend to encounter the audio issue I've heard about. I'm up to any suggestions. Thanks again everyone!

[Hero CDMA Android Development] mardurhack:
Excuse me..I'm from GSM Hero section... :P Did someone try to get it working on a GSM? It's enough to change the kernel into boot.img or there's some "tweak" to apply too? Thanks in advance and...Congratulations! You lucky CDMAs.... XD
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zenulator:
I was working with enatefox on getting it ported the mytouch3g and the last I heard he had it running. I don't see why it wouldn't work for the gsm hero with a modified boot.img and build.prop.

I'll really be looking forward to what you guys do with this.

i know i am following this religiously all i need to see is, calls work and im going for this like im butter on bread!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
calls should be able to come in and out. its only audio that doesn't work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] blankd3ckskat3r:
What is causing the flash 10 to crash the browser? Sorry if this has been answered I've only seen posts about audio in calls
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gabby538:
i could care less about audio out of calls, but in calls would be necessary, sorry darch i cant out with this, im only 15 with very mediocre knowledge in c++ and java, when i start shipping out my apps for android, ill make sure you are the first one to get it, for free, thanks for all you have done man.

Flash

Please let us know what your experience is, thats all I really care about at the moment, however like everyone else i'm on the edge of my seat waiting got a Hero version of Froyo to show up, I hope we can get it done before the Incredible, Moto Droid and Evo get it, that will be a great "IN YO FACE!" moment for us. I doubt that the flash will work but if you're brave enough to try it, let us know, thanks ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thatguythatdid:
When you download it your browser shuts down before you get to your home page I'm gonna adb pull it and apply it to a couple of other roms to see if it installs

mine bootlooped and i wiped data and dalvik 3 times, flashed, wiped again, reformatted SD card, jus10o was trying to get me to modify the cpu speed cause i can only oc to 710 mhz. i didnt try it because i was just going to try it, but to make such a blanket statement is a little frustrating.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] balistc:
I didn't put any ext on the SD card, they said not to in irc chat.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cp0020:
So In order for this to work you need to completely wipe everything and reformat your sdcard and then flash?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mattcoz:
Hmm, all of a sudden it's saying I don't have root access. I had installed Titanium Backup, and was able to give it superuser permissions. I then updated it and now it says I don't have root access. I can open the superuser app and see that I gave it permissions. Strange. :confused:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] balistc:
That's what I did. Backup your SD card to your computer, do a nandroid first. You could put all the files back after you format the card, with no EXT.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bagpipes88:
My suggestion for the people not able to get this working.... Don't use it. Wait until the major release. For those of you who did get it working, good job and keep testing. The more feedback we have, the better.
