I actually deleted all those files out of my download folder. Not sure what they are for, and since they looked so generic I didnt wanna fool with them. I do remember a few pages back people reporting that it didnt install the apps automatically. I noticed it because when I used Titanium after a fresh wipe, there werent as many apps to restore, only a few, and some didnt install, because they were already there.

:-)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] asoong:
Nice find! I thought this was fixed a while ago (before RC1) but with all of the continuous GPS postings, I'm probably dead wrong.

Has anyone else tried this fix? I'm still on the 9/7 nightly and had several issues with Maps and Navigator. While in Hawaii, the GPS wouldn't lock for at least 5 minutes but would usually lock within 15. Luckily, the route information would still work so I could follow that old-school (w/o verbal turn by turn) until I got a solid lock. It might have been the network in Hawaii though - its been pretty solid for me in CA.

Side note - the text to speech algorithm was hilarious when it tried to pronounce Hawaiian words. Likelike Highway (Leeky-leeky) was pronouced Like-Like and Waipahu (Wai-pAH-hu) was pronouced "wipe poo" which had my wife and I laughing so hard I almost drove off the road :p
[Hero CDMA Android Development] norm12:
Thanks so much...worked perfectly
[Hero CDMA Android Development] feefeeboomboom:
Do you wipe system and boot before you flash. In running 74 and camera works other then changing from 5m to say 2.5m;wide it fc.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] krazeejb:
I'm in the 9/25 nightly and this is not commented out.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] andygu3:
So........ 75 is 9/30? Confused!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] s0be:
The build bot was never updated to change the build date in the files or insert the build number. I'm sure it's in the cards.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] andygu3:
Thanks for the quick response
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 151jcolon:
Built 75 running 100% for me. No camera issue. Gallery working perfect. Is great

sugar free froyo
[Hero CDMA Android Development] y24k:
Build 75 running great here also

Sent from my Froyo'ed HERO w/ xda app!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] painter_:
Build 75 rocks! Everything I have tried works and from 1:00 am - 8:30 am I only lost 8% battery.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] METHOD1911:
How the hell do u update the car home app in the market I'm getting unsuccessful
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Brandito:
doesn't seem to be available for the hero or many other phones.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] METHOD1911:
Oh ok I figured as much wtf are we chopped liver
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
There will probably be an update in a new version of gapps soon.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Vrekk:
I hope so, it sounds like the new car home has some cool new features to go with it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Nice sig by the way ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jmoch2:
D

are you using the battery tweak with this Rom?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jakeblues55:
You can just delete the apks that came with whatever gapps your using and install it from the market. This goes for Gmail, voicesearch, car home, or whatever else they have.

mount -o rw,remount /system

rm /system/app/CarHomeGoogle.apk (or whatever other one you want to do this with)

mount -o ro, remount/system

then reboot and install from the market.

I never updated my gapps from RC1 i just do this.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] painter_:
Nope, After I flash I use adb and issue these commands.

echo "768000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq

echo interactive > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

This sets the governor to interactive and the max speed to 768 and I am done. No modified kernel, set CPU, or battery tweak. I have been running like this since the stable version was released and I have not had any problems or mystery reboots.

edit:

the 8% battery drain was when I was sleeping. about 20 emails came in during that time on 2 accounts.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hotaru:
remove the car home apks from /system/app, install from the market, then put CarHomeLauncher.apk back in /system/app.

if you want, you can move the car home apk from /data/app to /system/app.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] krazeejb:
Just installed the 75 Build and so far, the Gallery issue is gone. Also the GPS locked spot on. That's all I can report now. I was on the 9/25 prior. Good job on fixing those issues guys!! :cool:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] METHOD1911:
Thanks guys but someone said the new car home is not for the hero just yet and I agree does sound like the new one is cool
[Hero CDMA Android Development] METHOD1911:
Did anyone try to install or push it and it showed in the app draw
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jakeblues55:
I did what i outlined and was able to install it. I never used it previously so i can't comment on its usability, but it did update, launch and work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] METHOD1911:
Oh ok thanks for the reply gonna try it so do the remount thingy
[Hero CDMA Android Development] METHOD1911:
Thanks jakeblue worked perfectly
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Vrekk:
I was able to get the new car home installed by rming the old one and rebooting. When I tried to install it last time I forgot to reboot. Everything appears to work like it should. I like it

Thanks :cool:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sladehawke:
Same here.... build seems perfect after you take out all of the bloat.

Before I removed the bloat:

Other: 48MB in 5 --- Avail:13MB + 68MB in 15

After I removed the bloat:

Other: 34MB in 4 --- Avail: 64MB + 60MB in 15

I nandroided back to my old stock backup and updated to PRL 60671, then a full wipe. It's too bad I'll only be using this setup for a few weeks before I jump ship to the EVO. They should make this the stable build because of the random restarts the current "stable" build is giving CM6 a bad name around here.=
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tennockey:
How exactly are you removing the "bloat"? also, I can't seem to get it to run well. usually it starts slowing down after a day or so. Are you using setcpu or overclock widget and at what values? thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sladehawke:
No, I only ever use stock kernels... The bloat is all of the apks and packages that come preinstalled with CM6 that I don't use. For example, why let the bluetooth support eat up memory if you don't own a bluetooth device?

Here is the list of what I delete:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8320641&postcount=5
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tennockey:
thanks for the quick reply. a shame that i can't seem to get it going very long, ends up slowing down more than the stock hero build
[Hero CDMA Android Development] s0be:
JIT can cause that. Do you have it enabled?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
+1 to that, JIT is not made for small cache phones like the hero
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tennockey:
no sir. I havent used JIT since the first time I tried it a few months back when I first rooted. made the phone unuseable. lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tennockey:
Can anybody reccommend some good cpu settings so I can give this ROM another shot? I'm a flashing addict, so I gotta keep flashing new roms daily basically. haha
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Main screen on setting: 710-691

Screen off profile: 354-245

Governor: on demand
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tennockey:
which kernel should I use? I'm gonna flash the latest nightly build.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
I would use the newest BFS
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tennockey:
do you think adw or launcher pro is better? I love the customizability of adw but can never seem to get it stop lagging so dang much
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
I like LP, it's just smooth and stable for me, where ADW isn't.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tennockey:
same results i get. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't just me. Not sure why ADW is included in CM6. but thank for your input! Now i'm just waiting for NFX and Decadence to finish porting that froyo sense ROM.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tb87:
+1 I have used both quite a bit. I bought the paid version of LP and I don't see myself going back.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
As am I :D And no problem, let me know if you need anything else
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yup, LPP is just better than ADW IMO :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tennockey:
how do you change the screen on settings in set cpu? all i see is screen off
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Screen on is just the main screen :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tennockey:
haha, i knew you were gonna say that
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
That's alright, better to be sure :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hotaru:
probably because adw uses less memory and cpu, and has widget resizing.

yes, lp has widget resizing if you pay for it, but if i wanted to pay extra for basic functionality, i would have bought an iphone.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
And it's open source, whereas LP isn't ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tennockey:
flashing and tweaking is done and it still feels a bit jittery. At one point I had a perfect build on CM6 going, it was as smooth as butter. I thought I had an N1 or something. It might have been the stable build, but I can't remember how I got it running so smooth
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
If JIT is on, I would turn it off, that helped smooth it out for me
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tennockey:
JIT i off by default right? Cause I don't mess with it. It may just be LP being sluggish. idk, by the way, do you use compcache?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Correct, JIT is off by default. I don't use compcache, as I only have a class 2 sd card.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 151jcolon:
built 76 is out
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dpeeps74:
Awd runs great for me. I only have 3 screens and not many widgets. I also disable the swipe up/down. But cm6 on the stable runs great for me as is. No tweaks other than theme. I also rarely use wireless as I hate that 1 time I do get sent an mms. Also GPS is almost always off. I have had a couple of weird lockups but so far nothing recreatable. I will say that I don't see the battery life some report, but I also don't expect it, and would venture to guess that the few that get crazy battery stats are not the norm. But everything works for me. I still only wish trackball notifications would work for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yeah trackball notifications would be cool, but sprint limits the use of the trackball and we still haven't figured out how to "free" it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dpeeps74:
FREE THE TRACKBALL!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
I know right :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
I dub thee

Free The TRACKBALL MOVEMENT

FTTM!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also grats to us for replying to each other on parallel topics xD

Also, try kicking your vm heap up. I'm running 32m heap with no jit, and it's smooth as silk.

Sent from my CDMA Hero. I got some hot Froyo on Hero action here!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] feefeeboomboom:
76 is rocking. Date was updated to 10/03/2010 aswell.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cbeast3434:
thanks everyone for all the great posts. i'm currently running 75, which is pretty darn awesome. before jumping to 76, is there somewhere i can find the change/fix log?

i had to redo my sprint vm, gapps, and collin battery tweak after upgrading to 75, and want to weigh my options before plunking down 76.

take that sprint!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
No changelog for nightlies :) Just nandroid and experiment, although if you're happy with your current setup I wouldn't mess with it to be honest.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Brandito:
http://twitter.com/cmsrc

closest thing to a change log i found. just look at the twitter updates.

though it's been quiet since oct 1st so i dunno if they turned it off with the new build bot or what.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Brandito:
anyone else have problems with their charging led flashing orange, turning off completely, or occasionally flashing green and getting stuck on after removing from the charger?

is this a battery tweak issue? i enabled the led fix in the batt-cfg to see if that helps.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JonBryant:
Anyone having issues with Talk reconnecting after a phone call? 90% of the time it takes almost 15 minutes before it'll connect. If i use a different rom like fresh of the stock rom, it'll reconnect almost instantly.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
That happens sometimes to me, and I don't use the tweak.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Brandito:
well that narrows it down.

if it helps the tweak "seems" to be helping now that i enabled the led fix...so i'm not sure if the led fix is for something the tweak breaks or an attempt to fix something broken in cm6...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Well to be honest I'm not a huge fan of the battery tweak, I find it to be slow and battery draining, and the LED issues only happen infrequently with me so I just live with it :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Brandito:
seems about on par with setcpu for me.

i was more worried about any overhead setcpu might add.

setcpu does offer a finer grain of control with profiles though, i had 4-5 profiles setup. the interface is also much nicer and no need to flash anything extra after flashing the latest nightly.

so far the tweak is working well for me though. battery is no worse and speed seems as good maybe better.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Hey, if it works, it works, I just like set CPU better :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obsanity:
I think this can be considered as the overall change log for the entire CM6 project.

Even though it includes projects from other devices, all other projects are merged when approved to the base code of all devices which eventually will be compiled and posted in the nightly release.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yeah, but if you look there Darch isn't even there, meaning it doesn't have the hero updates ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] s0be:
Very little device specific changes occur. 99% of the changes we experience are CM6 overall changes.

Before anyone makes a 'fool' of themself... build 76 is identical to build 75 except for buildbot knowing how to change the date again. There were NO commits to any of the relevant source trees in the 24 hours before. Any gain anyone sees from flashing 76 over 75 would also be seen by doing a reboot/cache wipe.

Also, any 'new' bugs would also have happened to you on 75.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] brokentoaster24:
for anyone with bad battery life, go into battery use->cell standby and check your time without signal. if it's something really high, like over 50%, do the *#*#4636#*#* two signal trick. if you don't know what that is just lurk moar, it's here.

also people with the LED problem, get LEDs Hack from the market and use it to toggle on and off LEDs and everything will be fine.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] drummer68:
Ok, even more wierdness...

disregard, sorry...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tomatosoup:
just to elaborate go into you dialer and type *#*#4636#*#* select phone info and press menu then press select radio band. It should fc, now select phone info again, scroll down some and where it says unknown or gsm auto change it to cdma auto
[Hero CDMA Android Development] babysdog:
camera preview

has there been any fix found for the camera preview?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tomatosoup:
The best I can tell you right now in terms of camera preview is that A. Darch Froyo to recognize our camera yesterday but is still having trouble with it, and B. Your best bet for now is to use Camera ZOOM Fx(paid) or Camera Magic(free)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] babysdog:
thnx for the quick reply and i'll look into them. also watch here for a fix.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ssolomon:
I tried Camera Magic and Camera 360 and neither one seemed to have done anything to fix the camera issue. Am I missing a step in uninstalling the original camera app or changing a setting somewhere to get the other apps to show the preview?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tomatosoup:
The camera preview has only worked so far in camera magic and camera zoom fx so idk what's wrong
[Hero CDMA Android Development] asmith001:
Yes I noticed this as well. At first I thought it was just a bad barcode. Then I realized it was happening on all barcodes.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] smolck:
Did this, but it already said CDMA Auto (PRL) is that right? I have 63% time with no cell :mad: Oh, and thanks so much for the explaination, I'd have been lost without it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cjdalessio:
It is a little premature to throw in the towel... If this rom doesn't deliver just what you need right now, don't use it. It is not final, and that means it has quirks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xxproblemzxx:
Was another build made available last night? The irc was acting kinda buggy for me
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tomatosoup:
No not yet, hope one comes soon though :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] animal7296:
First reboot your phone then hold power for a few seconds then turn on airplane mode, leave it on for a few and then turn it off. This should get rid of your TWS issue. At least till you reboot again. I make it habit to perform these steps every time I reboot my phone.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] smolck:
Quite the contrary. I am not at all throwing in the towel. I had the same problem with DD 2.7 though. Seems AOSP and my phone = battery problems.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Have you tried resetting the battery stats? Especially if you came from a Sense/HTC-based rom to AOSP (but really, whenever you switch roms) it changes the way the system consumes battery. If the battery is not calibrated to that system, it will gobble through battery like I will a Reuben.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] szainmehdi:
Try what I did.

RUU to 2.1 from sprint, then root and flash again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zenstitution:
anyone else havin a problem with the irc? finally managed to get the login page to load but when i click to login nothing happens. did the same thing yesterday on a different computer.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cwils132:
No, it's been the same for me the last couple days. I was trying to get help but my client kept crashing so I figured I'd stop spamming them with my join messages and such and come here.

I had a question about the "Quick & Dirty" performance tweak.

I try to do the adb push:

adb push C:\android-sdk-windows\tools\21vm_bfs_tweaks /system/etc/init.d/21vm_bfs_tweaks

But it says the file or directory does not exist. Near as I can figure it's because I don't put an extension on the 21vm_bfs_tweaks, but for the small amount of time I was logged on to IRC I was advised not to.

So, someone please tell me how I'm being dense on this one. I'm no good for coding or anything but I figure I can at least test things like this for the rom and report how it works.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tomatosoup:
try adb remount first
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cbeast3434:
thanks for all the help with this question. nandroid is my best friend. great community.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obsanity:
I believe it's because all of it goes back to when they switched to Gerrit and since then, Darch hasn't done anything but compiled the nightys (I think... I may be wrong)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 151jcolon:
i tested 76 and gallery issue is back.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Hmm, that's interesting, you'd think nothing would've changed between these builds
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 151jcolon:
I know. Maybe bad flash ?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Possibly, I would re-download and try again. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
Im not getting the battery life I would desire, what kernels or battery tweaks could I run to optimize battery life on CM6? Please and thank you :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
I would go newest BFS from today, and set cpu at:

Main 710-691

Screen off 354-245

Governor On Demand :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
You are a saint, gonna friend ya xD
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
Also what is BFS xD Sorry trying to get all the terminology together
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
BFS is Brain F**k Scheduler. See here for some reading, it's just a faster method of CPU load handling.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrinehart93:
Has anyone here discovered the "Quiet Hours" option yet? It's amazing. It schedules the phone to turn off all the sound, vibrations, and LED's for whenever you specify... it's amazing. The only thing that should be added *hint hint Darch or Cyanogen* is specific day scheduling. Right now I have it set for whenever I'm at school (the hours), but it would be awesome if I could set it to off automatically for the weekends (when there is no school).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
I've seen this option as well, it's pretty cool :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrinehart93:
Yeah it's so nice because it lowers the chance of me getting my phone taken away by a considerable amount in case I forget to turn the sound and such off.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yup I can relate to that lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
Capped or uncapped?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Uncapped works best IMO
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
So get uncapped and then use SetCPU for everything else?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Correct :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
Ok sweet, if I have any more questions, I know where to find you xD
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yup, and feel free to ask, either here, pm, or my cm6 Q&A thread :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
Where are main and screen off located?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Main is just that first big screen, screen off is located in the "profiles" tab. You'll need to set the profile to screen off, 354-245, and then make sure enable profile box is checked. I would also set the priority to 100
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
I see Max and Min sliders and under profiles I see charging, sleep/standby, power<100% and failsafe profile
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
The sliders are the main, and sleep/standby is screen off :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
oh haha sorry for not reading between the lines xD
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
No problem, better to be sure
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
Also I cant get the 354 number exactly using the sliders, do I just take the next number I can get?
