+1 to this.

And if that doesnt work, re-download the rom and extract / push. Its quite possible that the download itself was bad, not the update... but it could be either.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DevinXtreme:
Forgot to mention I already tried pushing Calendar.apk and CalendarProvider.apk from the ROM archive I first downloaded. I'm redownloading now and I'll try and push from the new download and post with my results. Didn't even think about a corrupt download. Thanks! :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] drummingfool:
Hope the new download works. If for some reason it still doesnt, try snagging it from a fresh rom, e.g.: Fresh Toast 2.1. If pushing that still doesnt work, you'll want to redownload the .zip and reflash completely.

Oh no, my tech support is showing!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] shippbe:
Wouldn't the Calendar app from a Fresh rom not work because it is a HTC Sense app and AOSP uses a different framework?

Voicemail Icon

http://xdaforums.com/show...&postcount=924 link does not work, I cant figure out how to get this icon off there
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DevinXtreme:
Alright, still no dice. The exact FC I'm getting is for "Google Calendar Storage (com.android.calendar)."

As was mentioned above, isn't the calendar in any of the Fresh ROMs the HTC Calendar, meaning it won't work? I may be wrong...

If I reflash, I lose all of my settings, huh? I figured the initial FCs when I first flashed were just typical (it seems every time I flash a new ROM, something doesn't work the first boot) so I went ahead and set all my settings up as usual... Which, with Titanium backup, wouldn't take too long to redo, but it's still a hassle. lol.

I came from FreshToast, and I've really just been looking this entire time for exactly what Darchroid is :) I'm very happy to have found it.

Thanks again!

What light fix was in the new update?...im still getting a solid light on notifications.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
It was the bottom lights.. With the 2.6.4 they stopped working.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jowdy:
Thanks...lo i didnt even notice that in 2.6.4
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kashb91:
so the solid light for notifications is 'normal'? i was just about to spend some time trying to see if there was an option i missed somewhere to take it off.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sariamanascar:
Ha ha I am definitely not a programmer, in case you couldn't tell!:D Your quote in post #1944 made it seem like the boot.img you attached there was not the same as the one from 2.6.4! I thought that's why you said, "But first, try this one." Anyway....I wiped then flashed only cuz that's what I thought you're supposed to do when ROMs fail on you. Fwiw.

I flashed the rom, THEN I flashed the boot.img. Now I don't get a boot loop but I'm definitely stuck on the HTC logo. Been this way for 30 min so I'm pretty sure it's not working. Any tips?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
they rn't the same...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sariamanascar:
Ok, finally found where the older versions of the ROMS were and dl'd 2.6.4 and unzipped it and found the OFFICIAL 2.6.4 boot.img.

Now: How do I flash it from recovery?? Sorry for the noob-ness.

Again, love your ROMs and really want to use this new one!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
Reboot your phone before doing this.

Put the boot.img on the root of your sdcard.. NOT IN A FOLDER

Type this into command prompt

adb shell

cat /dev/zero > /dev/mtd/mtd2

flash_image boot /sdcard/boot.img

reboot
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sariamanascar:
When I type "cat /dev/zero > /dev/mtd/mtd2" the output is

"cat: write error: No space left on device."

Ugh...

I went ahead and kept going. And got this at the "flash_image" command:

"error opening /sdcard/boot.img: No such file or directory"

It's sitting there at the root of my sdcard. Why can't my adb shell see that?! Thanks again.

Should I keep going?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
Yes.. I forgot to add, you might recieve an error when typing that.

Make sure you phone isnt mounted.. You SHOULDNT be able to open up your memory card on your computer. It should only be on charge only. Unplug your phone and plug it back in without touching anything. It should go to just charging.

Also make sure usb debugging is still on in.. Setting>applications>development
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sariamanascar:
Ok I did keep going and...

Got this at the "flash_image" command:

"error opening /sdcard/boot.img: No such file or directory"

It's sitting there at the root of my sdcard. Why can't my adb shell see that?! Thanks again.

Broken Root???????

I'm not sure how I did it, but I can't open recovery on my hero. :confused:

I've tried home+power, fastboot access, and flashing multiple images. My last image was darchdroid2, the one recommended for use w/darch's roms. When I try to boot from home+power, it bootloops at the HTC logo. When I try to access recovery from fastboot, I get the error "wrong or no image," a reoccurring error as fastboot tries to retrieve the image several times. I've tried flashing through DS updater, and it bootloops at the HTC logo.

Can anyone help me with this problem???:confused::confused:

W/ Darch 2.6.2
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sariamanascar:
I dismounted my phone from the computer, rebooted (although I can't really fully reboot because it always hangs on the boot screen - so I just reboot into recovery) and...EXact same errors. Fyi, I can't actually go in to the settings of the phone because I can't boot up the phone!

Thanks for your help so far. Would love to have an operating phone tonight, if possible.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
umm, i updated the recovery today, try downloading it and try that.

adb reboot recovery
adb push boot.img /
adb shell
flash_image boot boot.img
reboot

if this doesn't work, can u please redirect this to the Q&A section of these forums, and not clutter up this thread more. not trying 2 be rude, just saying becuz alot of these 200 posts in this thread have been useless and made this thread impossible to search through. Thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bob2300nx:
2.6.5 seems to be working great.

One thing I have noticed is sometimes the light sensor kind of acts goofy. I will wake up the phone and the screen will be very dim, then I will hit end and wake the phone back up and the screen will be bright (and the light in the room did not change).

Then to test when the screen looks dim I will up the phone under my desk light and the screen will get brighter so I know the light sensor is working. When I wake the phone up the lock screen will be bright but when I unlock it will be dim.

Could it be that the light sensor does not have a middle ground and is only going fully dim (was really dim) or fully bright.

wifi tethering

just a fyi:

for me, wifi tethering (1.6) freezes when shutting it down on 2.6.5 i didnt have this problem with 2.6.4. has anyone had luck with the newer wifi tethering app and 2.6.5? for now i am nandroiding back to 2.6.4. might have to give the newer wifi a shot with 2.6.5.

thanks guys!

I am wanting to replace my current recovery with the newest one Darch has kindly updated in the OP. I want to make sure I am preforming the adb commands correctly before I flash the .img

adb shell
su
cd /sdcard/
flash_image recovery RA-Darchstar.img
reboot recovery

would this be the correct way of flashing the new .img?

So I answered my own question :P

It worked :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] szainmehdi:
Really??

I do it without the SU command :)

Am I right in assuming that we have to wipe and reflash to get the new Google ****s????

3. From 1.7 to GoDmOdEb(or something like that)

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:
All im going to say is... And hoping people read it.

When changing the themes of darchdroid using ones made for CM 5.0.x.x Make nandroid backups (obviously). But also double check whats flashing to the phone.

Almost ever theme iv seen replaces the Apps on the phone, keep in mind that some of them might be different then the ones darchdroid includes. So it could lead to problems when using some apps, special if its really old theme with old apps.

Also double check the files that might change important ones needed for the htc hero, and for scripts. One theme that was confirmed working, also erased the camera.apk, it was a pointless script for our phones, but i guess the author thought it was important for the nexus.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrinehart93:
What was the confirmed theme???
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
I already flashed the AOSP voice keyboard (is that what you are referencing above?) because I love it. What other '****s' will flashing the new GS get me? Trying to decide if it's worth it as 2.6.5 is running sweet right now.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wiiguy5:
Yes, and I posted the results.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jus10o:

I would open it up.. Delete the script in the root of the folder, and then resign the .zip file and then flash it.

Or you will lose your camera.apk.

Anyone figure why the music player in darchdroid force closes constantly?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] shinkukage09:
This can still play, natively, .swf files, right? If so, how? I can't get them to run.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] usq:
if you go back to 2.6.4 just grab the 'home switcher' app and the 'adw launcher' app. use home switcher to switch to adw and also use it to set it as default launcher if need be.

launcherpro beta is nice too but not open source.

OK so this one I really can't get on DS updater, does anyone have the previous version of googleshits, my market keeps getting all screwed on this one.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] duffkitty:
I have two bugs with this release... The GPS issue came back, it'll stop working after a few seconds. Yes I can refresh it with the powercontrol but when you use Google Navigation for work this isn't an option =P

Second is I seem to be dropping to 1X a lot more often... I'm going to try flashing DamageControl to update my PRL/Profile to see if anything gets better but so far I seem to only get 3G in a few areas...

can't use htc sync

love the change of the phone dialer... can't wait till you fix the mms picture but i cant sync with my computer... some roms had if i connect to my usb it gave me the option to charge, disk drive, and or htc sync.... can you tell me how to connect to my computer that would be great:D:cool:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] shinkukage09:
Alright, so it doesn't have a Flash app in it. Is there any Flash Player app that WILL install with this?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sariamanascar:
Just hold the notification bar at top and drag it down after you've connected via usb. You'll see the option to click on one of the notifications if you want to connect to your computer (i.e. mount).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] abcdfv:
He's asking about Sync.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] joshuaharp:
First of all, excellent rom. When I flashed the GoogleShits after updating, I noticed that the keyboard voice input button is not showing. Additionally, I now have two Android keyboard in my settings. One has options for voice input. One does not. No matter what I change, I still retain the settings of the other one (not voice input). Is it possible that the old keyboard remained? If so, how do I rm?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sariamanascar:
Just wanted to say I GOT IT!:D

The crucial part (for future noobs that look here) is that I had to put the boot.img on the root of my computer's file system, which in OSX means ~/ instead of /. Then everything you all suggested worked like magic. Stupid beginner mistakes, sorry.

Will I have to overwrite every new version's boot.img with this one from 2.6.4?

Also, here is my adb logcat output since I had the boot loops going. I couldn't get the adb pull command to work for some reason. Hope this is of some help.

Sorry for so many questions and thanks a million to Darch!!!! Love the ADW and the new voice search on the keyboard. Keep up the great work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] joshuaharp:
Disregard this. I did a search for how to switch keyboards and found the solution (long press on a text field, choose input method, select other keyboard). I'm just doing my part to make this thread more of a monstrous beast than it already is. You're welcome.

Hi guys,

i am trying to figure out a way to run the 2.6.4 with the luncher of the 2.6.5 can you help me, where to get the luncher and how to make it the default thank you.

i really like the the 2.6.5 except the tether

i have to report that i performed a backup and then restored it and half of the things like google account, call logs, contacts, the way the screens were set up and other things didnt restore. the apps did
[Hero CDMA Android Development] shh im sleeping:
The launcher he uses is the ADW Launcher, you are able to download from the market. To set as default, after downloading, press home and then check "set as default" on the screen that pops up then press adw launcher. If the screen does not show up, then go to manage applications and find home (I think that's what its called, haven't used 2.6.4) and press clear defaults, then press home.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] eyesofbanquo:
idk if its just my phone...but my reception got worse once iinstalled this...and i also cannot find a way to turn off 3G. Its always running >.<

but battery life is insane and the speed is ridiculous. i love this
[Hero CDMA Android Development] usaar33:
Overall, excellent ROM. The fastest and most stable I've seen for the Hero.

Two issues:

-Battery life seems lower. 8 hours of "sleeping" brings the phone down to 65% power. fresh 2.0d kept it at 80%.

-Why are the notification lights so strange? Rather than the green light blinking, it alternates between orange and green. Anyway to go back to the original behavior?

Is anyone else having the problem where when you plug in ear phones everytime you touch you screen it does a "buzzzz" sound in your ear?

Yes! But I didn't report it because I wanted to flash to another rom and verify it was only occurring on this rom.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Kenpoman:
ok i wiped/ repartitioned the sdcard/ reflashed 2.6.5/ flashed googlshits/ pushed all my music files to /sdcard/music

now I see NOTHING in the player!!!!!

edit: ok this is strange it only happens with darch's roms but if I put all the mp3's in /sdcard/music it won't see them all

if I put them in /sdcard/media/music it sees them

edit #2: the music player randomly starts playing music. asleep or awake. the music app sometimes closes on its own also.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bob2300nx:
Ex4 is totally unnecessary....just use ex2 or ex3

i have yet to understand the benefits of using ext3 and ext4 partitions ..

can someone explaint this to me.. i know how it works and what it does , just dont understand the benefits of doing
[Hero CDMA Android Development] daryelv:
Here you go... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext2 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext3 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4

Going to EXT3 or EXT4 from EXT2 adds journaling. EXT4 allows for larger file sizes, but we really don't need that with 16gb or 32gb flash cards. I don't see really many benefits going with EXT4 listed in the wiki. EXT4 is backwards compatible to EXT2 and EXT3 (you can mount a EXT2 partition as EXT4 for example).

Someone else might have some more background knowledge on EXT3 vs EXT4.

-Daryel
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rgildoss:
okay so just to be clear , EXT2 is the normal way ( when you partion the card it makes it EXT2 by default ? )

As am I. I had it with 2.6.4 as well. Try using Google Navigation, just sits at Searching for GPS, finds my location after a few minutes, then about 20-30 seconds later, loses it again. Never had any GPS issues before this.

Facebook Account, and an app issue

When trying to add my facebook account under 'accounts and sync' it just loads the facebook app, or just goes back to the accounts and sync screen, never adding a line that includes my account to the list. Any thoughts on this?

Also, I am participating in audible.com's android beta app program. The app runs under other hero 2.1 roms but this one seems to be having a particular issue. Its not a 'force close' per se, but when I open the app it just shuts down back to the home screen, and therefore I can't listen to books.

I love this ROM and want to use it as my daily driver but can't until I figure out what's going on here.

I did a total wipe of everything, including repartitioning the SD, upgrading to ext4, and even installed the recomended recovery image before wiping and flashing.

Any help is apreciated!

P.S.

I attached the (currently latest) APK if you want to test it. They have promised a new build yet this week. you may need an audible account though, you can get a month free (w/ free book) at audible.com/twit. I am neither an audible or twit employee, just a fan of both. Thanks again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Decad3nce:
The problem you're describing is the same one that the XDA app has with JIT enabled.

Try disabling JIT.

Pull build.prop from /system

adb remount
adb pull system/build.prop build.prop

Then edit the line

dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:jit

to

dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:fast

Then push build.prop back to /system

adb remount
adb push build.prop /system/build.prop
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bobsbobbers:
Thanks for the quick response. I restored a nandroid for tonight but will try this tomorrow.

What will I be giving up when disabling JIT?

\ Also, do you think this problem is likely both for Facebook sync and Audible? or just my Audible App?

Probably some loss in JAVA compilation power. But you'd still have overclock, so it would still be butter. Personally I don't even use JIT anymore. Waiting for Froyo(stable JIT).
