You can't root this version 2.27.651.6, which you said you have, you must have version 2.27.651.5 to root, so download that build, and reload it first, then you can root easily.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dezel29:
well i have tryd to do just that...i get a usb 171 error message everytime...the bootload waiting to load gets to about 80 seconds then i get the error message...so its not for lack of trying...nothing else i have tryd works and have no idea how to get my hero back to older version...
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kcarpenter:
Run RUU let the 171 error appear. LEAVE THE PHONE AT THE HTC SCREEN!

Exit the RUU

Run the RUU again while the phone is still at the HTC screen.

It will run the second time. ;)

I have a similar problem with trying to downgrade 2.27.651.6 to 2.27.651.5. I've tried running the RUU (which takes a LONG time to load, by the way) but it sits at the "Verifying information on you Android phone. Please wait" message for 5-10 minutes then says it can't connect to my phone.

I have Sprint's CDMA HTC Hero with Android 2.1. Every guide I've found about downgrading makes absolutely NO mention of how your phone needs to be setup when you connect it to the PC.

I've tried it in "Charge Battery Only," and "HTC Sync" modes.

To all of you need some help with getting the ruu to run try this.

1. Make sure you download all the necessary items found here.

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

2. Check out the step by step rooting video on Youtube found here.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAKrIZzXIyA

I used the video rather than try to read all the steps because I felt it was much easier to see everything and takes about 10 mins.

Then make sure that leave your phone on the charging option not "Use as Disk Drive" etc.

I've been rooted for a while but I just rooted my gf's Hero last night and was getting the same errors with her phone that you guys are mentioning so I reinstalled the Htc Sync program and after no luck finally realized I forgot to turn usb debugging on. This is key. MAKE SURE YOU ENABLE USB DEBUGGING. That seemed to solve the error message for me.:D

Hi all -- I looked but couldn't find this question asked before. Apologies (and permission to delete/move my thread) if it's a dupe.

I'm an "eager to learn" noob, especially interested in theming the DInc. It's become apparent that to get anything good going I need either to get my hands on a de-odexed stock ROM (stock sense 2.1) or learn how to de-odex.

Does the former exist someplace?

If not, what tools would those with expertise recommend to go about de-odexing?

Thanks in advance!

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kenjindomini:
Using the samsung ROMs the only replacement you can get for boot animations are boot animations from other samsung androids that use the same *.QMG files to store the animation. These are QMAGE files, its a compressed file with all the image frames stored inside it.

We have to wait for a hacked kernel so we can use bootanimation.zip files like every other android phone.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] lockzackary:
Just root your phone and follow the steps below

1. get your desired bootanimation (i cant point you to specific threads but here's my favorite )

2.once you get your desired bootanimation, place it on the root of your sdcard, (internal sd card not external)

its actually easy to replace your bootanimation once you learn how to install adb tool (i had this even before i owned an android phone coz its part of the android sdk)

3. all you have to do is type adb shell in command line

and these commands:

su

busybox mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl9 /system

busybox cp mnt/sdcard/bootanimation.zip system/media/

reboot

you're phone should reboot and you can see the changes immediately :)

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdc177:
What specific 4g symptoms does this fix? I have seen various issues reported:

1) 4g won't turn on. PERIOD.

2) 4g turns on but only scans - never connects.

3) 3g/4g alternate so there is never a stable connection.

4) 4g turns on and connects but after a while disconnects and won't reconnect until it is toggled on/off with the widget or check box in settings.

I used to have #3 until I did whitslack's "start over" method and now I have #4. I've changed my wimax idle sleep time to 300 in ##data# and verified a good MAC so other than the 2 evo last resort method I think I've tried everything other than the above.

So, does anyone know if renaming/moving macaddress.tree.xml is for my issue #4? Or does anyone know a specific fix for #4?

If it matters I rooted with toast 1/2 and am still on the rooted stock ROM from whitslack's "start over" method.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pondy:
Hi guys, I am not sure if anyone else has experienced this before, I have done a bit of searching.

If I connect my data connection (APN) at night it will work fine, if I disconnect it, go to bed, then wake in the morning and try to reconnect the APN , it will fail. The only solution is to turn on airplane mode, then disable it, then reconnect my data (APN).

I have updated to the latest (leaked) radio, hoping that this might have fixed the problem, but its still happening. It's been happening ever since I bought the phone, on stock ROM, and on every other ROM I have tried (2.1 and 2.2).

Has anyone else seen this? Is it related to my carrier (Optus)?

It just seems that it wont reconnect if it hasnt been used for 6+ hours...

Please Help

Thanks for the reply, it's finally good to find out that it's not just me. Maybe someone else out there would be kind enough to test it on a different carrier, either in AUS or elsewhere, just to find out of it is an Optus issue, because I have never heard anyone else mention it before.

Please, can someone do this test??? That would be totally cool. :cool:

Hi again,

I rooted using unrEVOked 3.1 and am now running the ROM listed below in my signature on an A8183 (Telstra) model desire.

Since I turn the data off and on as I need it and since the ROM flash, haven't had a problem. So I don't know if it was OPTUS or the TELSTRA standard HTC ROM. Next time I use my Telstra SIM, I will test and tet you know.

Cheers

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pondy:
Thanks mate, just to let you know I have tried a few roms and had no luck, until now. I think it was actually the latest radio (32.42.00.32U_5.09.00.08) update that has fixed it. Seems to be fine now. :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p3anut:
I'm getting this same issue on mine, Telstra Desire on Optus. Maybe I should simply root it and be done with it? Only thing stopping me I'm worried I'll have radio issues after.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] oswade:
I found something out guys...

I'm on JG1 but with the JFF CSC which apparantly fixes the swype bug.

All was working fine, however when I was typing a long sms (which turns into an mms after 3 pages 0_0 never knew that), the phone recommended to me to change the "input mode" to "automatic.

So I went into messaging > settings, and changed "input mode" to "automatic. Suddenly the swype bug was back...

Changed "input mode" back to "gsm alphabet" and all was working again.

So I have a suspicion that the swype bug is caused by "automatic" input mode, which is probably the default mode for JG1 CSC. On the other hand I suspect that the automatic input mode for JFF CSC is "gsm alphabet".

If my suspicions are correct.. then you can fix JG1 swype bug without firmware flash, by changing the input mode to "gsm alphabet".

Anyone try?

Thanks in advance
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuff:
If my definition if correct, it's one that is still being worked on. Not like a regular one with a few bugs. This is like a build before they would announce it a beta/rc.

Kinda like an underground build for only the advanced
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f2003554:
Yes. Its the 'current build'. Another way to look at it - better two beta builds.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjss75:
my understanding of nightly builds are that those builds are not supported in any way, they are experimental. flashing them on our phones=120% our responsibility even if it crashes. u find links at some places but i guess theres a reason for it to not be out in the open.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khaytsus:
Nightly build = An automatic build from a codebase.

Simple as that. Implies it's untested, and yes, could eat babies as the other replies imply.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pzumk:
In software development, a neutral build is a build that reflects the current state of the source code checked into the source code version control system by the developers, but without any developer-specific changes.

A nightly build is a neutral build that takes place automatically. These typically take place when no one is likely to be working in the office so that there are no changes to the source code during the build. The results of the build are inspected by the arriving programmers, who generally place a priority on ensuring the recent changes to the source code have not broken the build process or functionality of the software.

When someone says a developer "broke the build", they are effectively saying that a developer checked in code which might very well have compiled (and hopefully also run properly) in their account, but does not compile (and therefore, cannot be run) in anyone else's account. This is typically due to additional developer-specific changes that were either not checked in, or (in the case of environment variables, etc.) were modifications to systems not under revision control. One of the most common cases is remembering to check in all modified files, but forgetting to add newly created files to the repository. If the other developers check out the new code without being aware of the problem, their work may grind to a halt while they wait for the problem to be fixed (or try to fix it themselves, which can be even more problematic, if multiple developers attempt to fix the issue at the same time). This naturally can result in a significant loss of productivity.

Neutral builds are important for software development processes running at high loads with short schedules; not having them means that any build that needs to be created for the Software Quality Assurance department has to be created using code which may be in the middle of major modifications, and which would best be left out of a build for testing (particularly a build being evaluated for possible release).

Neutral builds can be done on a machine which is also used for active development if enough caution is taken, but it is safer to dedicate a machine to that purpose because an issue in the build process could cause the machine to become unstable.
