I believe the devs wanted direct links to the ROMs to stay off of the XDA forums for now, you might want to edit the links out of your post. Pretty sure they're trying to keep it in the IRC until something more final is ready to go.

edit: false alarm, you did it before I even finished typing the post.

Superuser permissions question

I don't know if this is happening to anyone else, or if this has to do with the previous ROM (I haven't updated to today's ROM yet) or with the program, but I keep getting this message that won't go away that says "MyBackup Pro has been granted Superuser Permissions". I can't clear the message, and it is blocking part of the screen. Otherwise, the screen is functional, I can still type, launch programs, etc, but it is in the way of some of the keys and annoyingly blocking my view. Anyone know how to fix? Anyone else having same problem?

Thanks for any help.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] METHOD1911:
Go to superuser in the settings and unchecked notifications

install seems slow

Installing todays ROM, but it has been at the animated cyanogen mod screen for over 15 minutes..... how long is too long?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrcamposd:
Im having trouble with my GPS in Navigation app and it looses signal. Does anyone else have this problem? or know how to fix it?

(Im using build "test2.zip")

Thanks everyone :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] revcp:
Yep, that's too long. I tried to install the ROM over the top of n00bz. Didn't work. So I did what I've done a few times, and that is wipe to factory, wipe cache and do a clean install. I didn't wipe anything from SD, so all data was preserved. I then used AppBrain (which I had installed before and synced with previous ROM) to reinstall apps I wanted. So, nandroid back to previous, install and sync with AppBrain, wipe to factory and cache and flash ROM from Clockwork or whatever recovery you're using.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] klopinator:
Sometimes it can take hours for that initial odex to take place...bu usually not more than 10-30 minutes. Just relax, it's doing what it's doing, should be fine.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wardfan220:
I've noticed that when I get stuck on a boot loop I can see the boot animation start over. If it's a continuous loop without any hiccups then it's probably ok.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] dondadah88:
It doesn't always work on our phone nor show all the stuff up top.

And there are people that just wants to see if there Is a new rom download and flash. Nothing else.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
SlingPlayer works great with Froyo, I'm using all the time. You have to modify a line in the build.prop to get it going.

My battery was being retarded. With EVERY SINGLE ROM! Lasting no more than 2 hours.

I calibrated and everything. It wasn't charging over USB anymore and won't charge if its on.

Should I RUU to 2.1 and then take it to sprint for repair?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
If its an issue with "EVERY SINGLE ROM", then your question would be more appropriate for the Q/A section. anyways, if its happening on "EVERY SINGLE ROM", then you probably need a new battery, or new phone
[Hero CDMA Android Development] heroid007:
Is this ROM UV'd or are there any plans to make one, Darchy?

My phone is kinda getting heated with little extra use! So just curious!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] conboy0:
Just gotta get this outta the way. Best rom, second being darchdroid. Darchstar, you and your crew are badasses. Now that's done...

Tried posting this on irc, understandable this isn't really too exciting to most people but. Since flashing this connectbot started displaying characters oddly. Looks like its an issue from cyanogen 5.0.8 which is logged as #1663 and fixed for that version. I would post a link but am not allowed.

There are links to some zip files to flash to fix that, but not for 6.0 or hero. Just wondering if someone thinks they might work, id give it a try, or try to help however.

Thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
It should be UV'd already

I don't have that problem so idk, but go ahead and try them out and see if they help. just be sure to make a nandroid
[Hero CDMA Android Development] heroid007:
Darchy, you think you can create a patch for me to avoid to avoid the lights keeping up all the time in the dark like you did for your 2.7 ROM? I like it when it comes on after I touch it and then time out after few minutes! Staying up all the time sucks on battery and annoying as well!

Thanks in advance!

[Hero CDMA Android Development] heroid007:
Thanks for the link but my problem isn't LED, but I am talking about all the button lights including track ball! Actually Darchy is aware and he fixed it for one of his experimental ROM's after 2.7!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
dude, stop spamming! i already gave u ur answer on the irc channel. What u want is a broken led auto-brightness. see the trackball light is started by the light sensor like when its dark, and turned off when its bright. What u want is that auto-brightness to be broke so that the led behind the jogball will come on by touch. I'm not gunna break a feature for you
[Hero CDMA Android Development] smolck:
Just got 31.2 fps neocore score with this rom. Previous best is 26.6 with darchdroid 2.7. Nice!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] heroid007:
Don't eat me Darchy! lol.... I used the IRC fix but that makes the track ball go away! I didn't know it breaks auto brightness! You always claimed it breaks but never mentioned what! Also, first you thought the feature it self was a break but it is not! Every freakin' phone behaves the way I was requesting! I understand the ROMs here aren't built by companies in the R&D labs, so if you can't make it work every which way and every feature a company built ROM comes with I understand! I wish you learn to calm down a bit! But again thank you very much for your work, much appreciated!

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jcf304:
Did you try L.E.D hack off the market..it turns off the lights when you have it plugged in or in a dock. I use it when setting my phone as an alarm clock with other 3rd party alarm apps. It gives you the choice of which lights to turn off also.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] okcnyyfan:
It's working without modification in the nightly.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] markus_del_marko:
is this a RC release?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] darchstar:
nightly != RC

nightlies are unsupported builds automatically built by the buildbot every night. since its automatically generated it could build badly coded/testing source which may result in some breakage. thats why they aren't considered stable.

RCs are stable releases that can be considered an everyday build but still have a few kinks needed to be ironed out before a final release
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Flashed today's nightly, and boy is it good! It has a few problems (headphones not recognized, can't cancel market downloads) but other than that it's amazing. Any ideas on how long before we get some everyday rom releases?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] asoong:
I'm running the latest nightly "cm_heroc-08102010-011300" and this is what I've noticed:

Really cool boot animation.

Market worked fine

GPS and Nav works fine.

WIFI works fine albeit very slowly as I posted previously. I still haven't set my router to G-only so that may be the issue.

There's a new app "DSPManager" Not sure what this does though.

The camera preview works but after going to the gallery, I experienced the preview freeze as previously posted. Taking a picture required the home button double-tap that someone posted.

Upon first boot, I got some error from Google Voice. Seems to work OK though.

The CPU seems to max out at ~690, not 710 like it was with zOMG

Widgets on the home page take a while to refresh when i close an app.

Rom Manager keeps popping up with "Recovery Failure" but I got this ever since Test 4.

Swype needed a full uninstall/reinstall before it started working again.

Still can't close Messaging

I plan on testing this out for a few days unless a new RC comes out :rolleyes:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vidsid:
So far, every thing that I've thrown at it has worked..even the camcorder ..bravo!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] urushiol:
Indeed, also using cm_heroc-08102010-011300. Looking amazing darch and team. So far I have ran into..

1. No headphone icon, though the device does recognize, and direct audio to the headphones.

2. Had to use collins battery tweak to get charging LED to turn off.

3. DSPManager is fking awesome. <3

4. Camera works great, but its best to exit to home screen after using it, and not use the shortcut inside the camera app to the gallery, doing so has resulted in FCs for me.

5. You didn't automatically install this on my phone as soon as it was posted.

6. Very fast in everything. Market download speed seemed slow on first boot, i'm now on 3rd boot, and it seems very fast now.

Now heres a question. I'm currently running DC 2.08 still and want to try this 2.2. out. Can I take an nandroid backup of my phone, install this 2.2. build, and if I don't like or can't adapt without sense for example, do an nandroid restore?

Basically does the recovery console on this 2.2, would it allow for a restore back to my 2.1 , DamageControl 2.08?

Notification error

Only problem I have run into so far is with the notification bar. If I plug in my headphones, I do not get a notification on the notification bar. Other than that, things seem to be running smoothly here.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jakejm79:
No problems for me, have installed Handcent and a few others with no problem.

I do get the occasional rare FC but I had that with DD2.8 too.

Is the icon not there or is it just transparent/white? i.e. if you have a notification does it go to the full left or not, I thought I read somewhere in one ROM that the headphone icon was screwed up and while there was not visible, not sure if that is the same here.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hintzilla:
Interesting, I guess I'll try wiping and flashing clean again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danaff37:
For those complaining about only able to go to 691 clock speed, it's because many people, like me, can't even boot it if it's faster. Our chips can't handle it. I would love to take it into sprint, but what would I say? My phone won't overclock very high? Lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Once we start getting into more stable everyday releases, will sprint visual voicemail be made available? Just wondering because for some reason google voice doesn't work in any rom for me (if someone wants to help me with this, that's fine too :)

Works here been running it a few days now. I missed it badly.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercrapper:
The new daily works better then the previous release. Just a couple of things I've noticed.

1. Headphones icon doesn't show (as reported by others), but audio does get routed properly.

2. bluetooth audio seems to "skip" periodically (the audio cuts out). This doesn't happen with the wired headset. This is an improvement because the release it would skip every other second.

3. sometimes the charging led light doesn't turn off (when unplugged) until I receive a notification. I downloaded LEDs Hack to turn the LEDs off and on again when this happens.

4. Unable to get Sype keyboard working after upgrade, but I think this might be Swype, not the rom.

5. Camera preview works great, but I'm not sure if it's focusing. Can anybody confirm?

6. Linpack gets the same performance (or a little better) even though the CPU is is not overclocked as high.

Overall, this is awesome.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercrapper:
Transparent Lock screen?

On a different subject, does anybody know how I can get the transparent lock screen back? I read somewhere that the transparent lock screen was purposely removed from the Cyanogen rom, but I really like being able to turn the screen on to see a the status of my widgets without unlocking. I do want the screen locked in case it is accidentally turned on in my pocket though.

Thanks in advance.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mdsj:
Just flash them all from recovery and it should be good? Thanks for the help.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xcolt45:
I'm getting a whole lot of keyboard lag with the latest nightly... I don't know if its just me though. If it is I can always just wipe and reflash haha
[Hero CDMA Android Development] asoong:
Regarding Swype, I had to uninstall and reinstall to get it to work again. I've had to do that for every ROM upgrade.

As for camera focusing, it does for me but when i go to the gallery to review my pic, it takes quite a while for the pic to focus - probably because I have things set to the highest resolution. FYI - exit camera and then open gallery - DON'T use the gallery link from camera or else you might experience the "preview freeze"
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hintzilla:
I've got to say that I really like that there's no headphone icon. I find it pretty useless and redundant even, since you can see the headphone jack clearly has something plugged into it less than an inch away from where the icon is. Also, once you start getting lots of notifications up there, it becomes valuable real estate anyways.

Also, my market issue is gone now after wiping and re-flashing. Not sure what happened in the first place, but it's working fine now. It's been weeks since I've had Handcent, man I've missed it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] shepkc:
Does Handcent still lag as bad as it used to? I got rid of it because it just bogged everything down so much.

How is everyone's signal strength on the the most recent nightly? I came from DD2.8 and I am barely hitting -100db where has before I was in the -80s

Trying a few different radios now.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] asoong:
I'm at -67 dBm 0 asu in SF, CA using PRL 60667 and radio 2.42.01.04.27.

BTW, how up to date are your speeds in your sig? Unfortunately, your upload speed is my download speed - on a good day...:(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jakejm79:
Those were a while ago, actually I think I was running DC1.X or something at that point.

Yeah I tried that radio, the original 1.56 stock and Eris one and one other, I was using 2.42.01.04.27 and I am back to that since that seems to be marginally better, only one I can get to break into the -90s

Gonna flash fresh 2.3.3 and DD2.8 again and see if it really is the ROM or suddenly my service sucks. Gonna do a PRL update while on Fresh too.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DirtyShroomz:
You do know that -60dBm is better than -90dBm right?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mparkerfd20:
Yes. Flash the cm-heroc first then the GAPPS. Depending on which ROM you're coming from you may have to wipe first.

Yes I also know that the -100 that i am getting now is not as good as the -80 i was getting. Anyway it seems like it is sprint in my area, tried 4 different radios and 2 different ROMs (Fresh 2.3.3 and DD2.8) and I am always in the -100 region.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] itrackit:
there are people running the native a2sd in 2.2 and others running DT. i have my sd partitioned for DT or the like, wiped before going to 2.2 and then told 2.2 to use external for installing apps. all is going well and the system says all my apps are being installed on the sd. you dont have to repartition.

im not exactly sure how DT works in 2.2. might read up on the thread to see what they say about it. but i know people have said they are using it. im just not sure if they also have to tell 2.2 to install apps to external to make it work. maybe not and DT just handles it based on the partitioning of your card. this would make more sense to me but read some more to be sure.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] asoong:
If this was directed towards me, I'm using version 1.56.30.7625. I didn't flash an apk, I downloaded the installer apk and it downloaded and installed this version - just like when the thing was in beta.

actually I was! My apologies for failing to quote. where can I get a working apk to install?
