First one again!!!!, you're the best!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rfgamaral:
I have a question though...

The update had a bunch of new files that's for sure, but it also lots of "patches", which needs the original files. Does this ROM also uses those patches or what?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mac1929:
+1

Seems that it comes with 6.35.15.11 instead the 14 that came with taiwan OTA update.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Mynx:
Lol and i thought that Friendsstream & A2SD where standard features of 2.1 , im not gonna use then , ill stick with Villainrom for now :p
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] max0r1m:
Hey guys, I'm new here.

Does "rooted" also mean that we'll be able to flash further custom roms?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Thats why I said less work for me lol. The patching system is fully dumped with md5sums based on the original and part 1 update. So to get this fully patched we would need to add our own md5sums to the patcher list and then flash it over. :)

Currently andrewb84uk is flashing this and is going to tar the /system with busybox for us.

Hopefully...

If anyone else wants to then here's a howto: (ONLY IF YOU ARE PREPARED NOT TO HAVE ROOT EVER AGAIN!

0) If you need to, unroot using an RUU then flash part 1 & part 2

1) Install Android SDK or simply adb

2) Download busybox for Android

3) Launch Windows console (cmd) and go to the directory where busybox is with the "cd path/to/the/file" command.

4) "adb devices" <- Is your device detected ? If not, install HTC Sync // Of course, before you have to plug your device in... (Sync mode I guess)

5) "adb push busybox /data/local/busybox

6) "adb shell"

7) "cd /sdcard/"

8) "chmod 755 /data/local/busybox" (something like that)

9) "/data/local/busybox tar cvf dump.tar /system"

10) When it's finished, you will have a normal error like 'tar: error exit delayed from previous errors'.

A sacrifice for the community? I admire that. :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] idroid84:
If I can't find a way around root once I have done it I will just break it somehow and say the flash failed instore to get a replacement! ;)

OK here goes;

Part 1 - Reinstalling RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_2.73.405.5_WWE (Done)

Part 2 - Get Update 1

Part 3 - Get Update 2

Part 4 - Busybox IT

Part 5 - Upload /system (Complete!)

The radio image

I flashed the radio image in the first post onto my Orange UK Hero and it locked it. It can be undone by reflashing the previous image but you should out this in the post.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] idroid84:
Will do :) Thanks for the heads up.

EDIT: Post Edited. Thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] 42turkeys:
Top way to break it:

Reinstall the OTA & Pull battery during radio flash & say it failed :)

I will make the tar into a rooted update.zip in the morning.

Good Luck :)

try mine then...

it is the HK_WWE release build 3.34.721.1

i simply extracted the system.img and boot.img, rooted it and maked it as update.zip

so it is as every other update.zip rom.... just wipe and flash

Do i just download the rom from point 2?:

Information for Developers/Cookers ONLY

1. Version: 3.32.405.1 WWE Build (All Languages)

2. HTC FULL ROM Download ??

3. Busybox Dump by andrewb84uk

And flash this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] 42turkeys:
Actually the build.prop already shows the Build as 'ERE27' (Nexus One) so should work...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] 42turkeys:

Should work. Replace and sign (Google 'Sign a rom android')

Then reupload it if it works for you.

What will this edit of the build.prop do and how can it be tested working?

It will make android think you are using a Nexus One. (passion)

You will know because you will see protected apps on the Market.

Yeah but please NANDROID backup first in case it all goes wrong.

One more question. How much space does this rom need?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] idroid84:
I am confused... all you have to do is find the .apk and then install it again on the new ROM. If you are rooted try installing it... then pull the apk from '/data/app'.... move over to your new ROM and then push the apk.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] 42turkeys:
Almost the whole of /system

Those languages take up a lot of room!

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] idroid84:
Ripping the languages out of the ROM is defeeting having it WWE. :p :p You should make it stock (Don't touch nothing!) and revise a new link with a new 2.1 Custom ROM!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
I actually agree with this. maybe two versions. one FULLY stock except for root etc as you have now (although if it has apps2sd it will be great!)

the other one with overclock, secure apps, and apps2sd ((again) and whatever else you want.

also please clarify if this can be installed clean or if it needs to be installed over top of the rooted original 2.1 taiwan (or where ever it's from) hero release... I haven't seen clear instructions about that yet. (in other words, is this complete or does it require some files from the original rom to be present during the flashing of this one?)

cheers, great work 42. I still say your original 2.1 taiwan rooted release was the best performer on my phone (but I'm on superhero 2 for the time being... I can't stop flashing roms dammit!!!)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Arkanius:
It is recommended you install clean
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
cool, thanks! :-)

so it has everything needed and isn't just an update to place over the older official rooted release then.

exactly what I wanted to know :-)

cheers!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kwanbis:
Sorry for the TOTAL ignorance, but i come from the G1, and just got a HERO 30 mins ago.

The HERO says:

Firmware 1.5

Baseband 63.18.55.06DAU_6.35.08.20

Kernel 2.6.27-0078c992

Build 2.73.661.46 CL#74632 release-keys

On the G1, i had to previously do a downgrade, but i have no idea yet on the process for Hero.

So, to flash this, and have ROOT, i just:

1) Boot recovery

2) flash signed_062910_164847.zip

3) flash RADIO

that would do? Where do i get the radio, it sees see bellow, but i see nothing.

(i would follow this first, correct? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=622228 )
