[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chaid:
Which upgrade?

If you ran the most recent RUU from the sprint site, it is already patched against root. You have to run the older version.

Go to: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=694572

Scroll down to Regaw's second post and click on the link that says, "My Personal One I used for testing"

Run THAT Ruu.......THEN proceed to root via his instructions at the beginning of the post.

Good Luck.

P.S. Your software number must be 2.27.651.5

If it has a .6 at the end, you can't root
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tbaybucs:
it is actually in with the other apps the ^ button
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbriddick:
thanks!

Thanks alot! I now own a perfectly rooted HTC Hero!

If you downloaded the Sprint Update OTA after upgrading to 2.1 you will need to run the original 2.1 RUU then root.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbriddick:
switched

I switched the 2.1 software to the one that ends in .5 instead of .6
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frans Parnel:
I had the same issue then realized that it was due to me being on the newer 2.1 and I cannot seem to get the phone to flash to the older one. I keep getting connection errors!!!

I heard a lot of it was due to windows 7 but people posted about the new htc sync that is windows 7 compatible is suppose to work. I have that yet i still get connection errors, and unfortunately i don't have any computer with an older os on it!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frans Parnel:
Alright, I was able to solve my problem!

If you are getting a connection error just after phone reboots and attempts to go into boot loader try this:

1. Turn off phone

2. Boot into boot load by holding "Volume Down" and "Middle Scroller" and then push and hold down "Power/End Call" - you will be in boatloader when you see three skateboarding "dudes"

3. Push "Volume Up" to enter fastboot (usb) - you will see the top item on the menu say fastboot if you ARE NOT in it already

4. leave phone on and in bootloader and then start the RUU update and all should work!

This is what worked for me with my issue, hopefully it will help someone out - i know i was getting stressed out about it.

And sorry for posting in this thread for my issue.
[Desire General] mhurg:
Sent my Desire in for repairs due to the pink screen issue (everything to make them aware of it!), and although the service report says "no fault found, test OK" and I know that to be lies, it also says "ROM upgraded".

Whether or not that is correct I do not know, my TP2 ROM upgrade was in fact a side grade a few months back, but I thought I'd let you know and will of course let you all know in a day or two.
[Desire General] EddyOS:
What ROM does it say you're on now?
[Desire General] zoltar99:
It is probably just a minor rom upgrade, not a Froyo upgrade. Let us know.

[Legend General] roeylee:
I tried to phone someone by pressing "Call" button but the call wasn't initiated. It is the second time it happens (since I purchased it about 2 weeks ago).

Restarting the phone solved it.

Would could be a more reasonable solution for that?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] meltwater:
Hi everyone,

Wondering if such a thing exists...

What I would like is an app which can be linked to hardware button (i.e. the Back arrow on the Touch HD) which brings up a small selection window. Within the selection window you would then be able to quickly choose the function of the volume control buttons.

i.e.

Volume Up/Down

Cursor Up/Down (or enable VolDPad)

Cursor Left/Right (or enable VolDPad)

Screen brightness

Task Switcher (switch back and forth between open apps)

Obviously it would also need the VolDPad ability of reverting to Volume control at key times (such as in-call).

So is it possible and is there perhaps a combination of apps which would do this??? VolDPad is quite close, but as far as I know there is no quick way to enable/disable it via hardware button.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] pckshd:
Something similar already exists

[Windows Mobile Software Development] Arto:
Would be possible to remapp the volume keys to htc volume control?? Because the wm 6.5.x has modified the taskbar, the volume keys does'nt redirect to htc voulme but to the ugly windows volume..

Ideas?

Hi,

i never did a Morph myself, probably i will try it later today. If someone is a bit more experienced he'll do that in a few minutes i think.

May someone be so kind and do the morphs for me (and tell me which file he needs?).

I have different Keyboard Layout styles here for swype (original, black/red, htc style, galaxy syle, original brown style).

I put them in the correct folders like com.swype.android.inputmethod/assets/keyboards. There are only some png's which have to be replaced.

They should work with every version / mod.

A sample morph can be found here (but it is for the old Metamorph version)

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6753575&postcount=102

The Morphs include QWERTY AND QWERTZ Layout.

Credits will be added soon, i have to look for myself from where i got this. I modified the black QWERTZ and the brown original style.

Thanks Sho3box for the Black Theme http://xdaforums.com/member.php?u=2308049

second step would be adding different tracer and corresponding glow colors so everyone can mix that and do his favorite version!

Have you tried editing en resigning the latest beta release?

Manually and autosigning it both made it crash in my case.

Thx and greets
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] watercool:
Yes works great for me but I am signing manually (ok i see you tried both..)

what do you edit exactly?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] THATTON:
I tried signing my own apk yesterday and I can't figure it out on my mac. There isn't much support online for Mac users. Were you able to make an HTC theme for Swype yet, or did someone? I don't need anything fancy just the HTC style keyboard in either a MM or apk. I think someone posted the Morph file in another thread but it's for the old version of MM which I can't find one that works on my N1. Let me know if you have anything modded already that could help me out or even the old version of MM would work I suppose with the other HTC style keyboard previously posted.

Thanks!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Drane:
I'm sorry but I guess my problem wasn't the signing because the install went fine, it's just that when running swype it crashed instantly thus making it useless...

maybe I need to try it with an earlier version...

Could anyone who can confirm a successful mod please post the version number in here?

Thanks
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] bluedawgalex:
wow id love that black swype with a red trace line for my evo..
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] bluedawgalex:

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Paraglider1982:
I did a Morph and it was processed properly but afterwards Swype wasn't present anymore to choose as input method.

I checked this twice, on internal and external memory.

But both times same result, swype isn't chooseable anymore

So I had to reinstal it again and then all is fien again.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] frontalot:
How do you install this?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
I hope these come out soon. I really dislike how slick the entire phone is. When trying to have a phone conversation, and trying to rest it on your shoulder, holding it between your shoulder and face, it slides right out...
[myTouch 3G Slide General] donepate:
Same here. TMo was suppose to start doing the custom printed covers, but they are slick as well. It was 100 degrees yesterday and sweat doesn't help when you're trying to silde it open one handed either. TMobile has a rubberized shell for it, but it was way too bulky.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
Yeah, I meant to mention those "skins" too, I am not a fan of those. One of my praises for this phone was it's slim profile, and adding one of those skins would make it just that more bulky. I like the material on the back of the Droid.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Etype R:
I like the battery cover on the back of the original MyTouch 3g, other then the fact that it slides open way to easy...
[myTouch 3G Slide General] y2k1ltd:
Have y'all looked into eGrips. Might be worth it for now.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
Well again, those I am not a fan of. First: I am not sure how those attach, and if it is simply a stick-on, I'd hate to have it leave a residue when you go to remove it. And since it's a cover on a cover, it starts increasing bulk. If someone would come out with a replacement cover, just in a different material, I'd be happy :)

Edit: I also don't want something that would make it a pain to slide in and out of my pocket... those super grippy type covers do just that. They're great at keeping them in place on a car dash, or on your shoulder, but it's likely going to turn your pocket inside out, leaving you open to being bum rushed when the change falls out of your pocket.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] benmarvin:
Well, it *IS* called the Slide. Sorry, couldn't resist. :D
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
Touche my friend.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] N1M1TZ:
Maybe it's time to use what we call headsets? :D:D

They even have wired and wireless version of this gadgets..:p:p
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
Eh, maybe I am old fashioned, but I hate headsets more than the battery cover :) I rarely use the phone in my car, so I see little use of the headset. Actually, I only use the headset when listening to my music.

OH, which BTW, if you used Subsonic, now you can browser your server using the phone's browser since it has Flash support, no need for the Subsonic app :) Maybe I'll post that in the apps thread...
[myTouch 3G Slide General] schnem:
The phone is great but it is way to slippery.

I was thinking of maybe taping off parts of just the back cover and spraying on a product called Plasti Dip just to give it a thin rubber coating.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
I'm very familiar with plasti dip, and thats not a bad idea...
[myTouch 3G Slide General] warwolfx0:
I put on some ghost armor on my device. It makes it a little more slip resistant. It was at one of the mall shops at a local mall.

[myTouch 3G Slide General] motorjonny:
Agreed on the slippin slide. I have a bench seat in my truck so i have to keep a t-shirt on the seat to hold my phone in place. (while streaming pandora into my stereo!)

So since gel skins have YET to show up at my T-mo store... I have been contemplating how to spray paint it or rubber coat it... If someone is bold enough I would love to see the photos.

Here are the potential problems

1. the holes in the back for the speaker.. we can porbably just poke them out with a pin after spraying.. hopefully it still looks pro

2. i started to pull off the front plastic and it seemed like the plastic screen cover was connected.. not sure if I want to mess with that... but it might look lame if the front doesnt match.

Possible anti-slide solutions...??

- some sort of stick on rubber tread that looks cool??Maybe if we find a cool piece of rubber tread that is made to stick on or we glue it one it could look cool and stop the damn phone from sliding.

p.s. my dream would be for someone to make a metal cover like the nexus (no i dont want a nexus I just like the finish that looks like an adults phone) with rubber tread lines built into it.. maybe I need to find a manufacturer. ..
[myTouch 3G Slide General] mylostlonelysoul:
I hate the slick back cover as well, i miss the cover on my G1 its the non-slick bio-hazard one. just the type of grip makes it great to slide in and out of pocket, less scratches, easier keyboard slide out.

Its too glossy for my taste i have to wipe the whole phone when im done with it for the night to make sure the finger prints are gone, gets annoying.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] i0nicx:
i'm looking for a nice matte cover as well, i hate the slickness(i dropped my phone because it slid out of my pocket). worst case scenario i might grab a replacement black one and sand it to a matte texture.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] motorjonny:
I am about to spray it with a satin black car trim spray... and if that doesn't work the next step will be a rubberized spray I think... Will post if it doesn't look like complete garbage lol
[myTouch 3G Slide General] motorjonny:
Well I hate to get ahead of myself but here is my rubber coated battery cover.. I am still waiting so patiently for it to completely dry. If what I used works then I will post a photo how to . Hang in there!

[myTouch 3G Slide General] jnight666:
I have a 2007 Shadow and the rubber texture on the back would Great on the back of the Slide...

Also does everyone else hate the stupid a$$ mytouch symbol on the back cover...
[myTouch 3G Slide General] xblue95:
I was thinking on trying an invisibleSHIELD by ZAGG, has anyone tried one of these?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] motorjonny:
Unfortunately my sweet spray job is not sticking to the plastic. I scuffed all of the gloss off first but it is slowly rubbing off on the edges.. it looked really good and worked (stopped sliding on my truck seat) but it is rubber undercoating made for metal... and i guess it wont bind to plastic.. ugh! maybe a coat of primer first..
[myTouch 3G Slide General] donepate:
There is a spray made for plastic to make paint adhere to the surface better. A good paint store should have it. They will know what you are talking about.

Here`s a little app ive made that lets you control the music volume with the default wired headset.

Long press PREV to make it louder, long press NEXT to lower volume.

Made for stock android music player. Tested on nexus with froyo. Confirmed working on CyanogenMods.

Comments welcome.

updates:

moving to market

16.06.10: Fixed incompatibility with some froyo roms.

15.06.10: continuous volume changing

SENSE ui player supported (at least on hero :P)

In Italy we have had problems with vodafone (i purchased my nexus one in USA ).

First problem, inside the box they replaced the original headset wich has the music control, with a motorola one. Now after a lot of protests they agreed to sent to all who purchased the phone the HTC headset.

Second, they are blocking the vocal search. I don't know what's the problem, but looks like they are blocking the vocal search because is recognized as VOIP traffic.

Anyway in Italy is sold with eclair and not Froyo.

Hope to see news tomorrow.
