Sept 22 runnin good

Froyo is too sweet for iclones
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ConanOBrien:
Went from Sept-04 to Sept-22, and now the camera app force-closes whenever I activate it. any recommendations?

(did not wipe, should i?)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ConanOBrien:
damnit, I just wiped it and the camera app still FC's immediately ><

going back to older build i guess

Great Grandson of Vanilla

Hopefully, the third time is the charm, as the saying goes.

There were some issues with the source used to build the 23SEP version of Vanilla, which appear to be corrected in the latest source.

Vanilla Rebuild 3 in now posted in the OP.

This has had even less than the normal 30 seconds of exhaustive testing, so this is primarily a build for those on Vanilla that are having problems to test.

Sorry for the issues with incremental source changes on the rebuilds. That is one of the reasons I try to pick my release points. Here at home we are running all three of the 22SEP versions without issue, so still don't have enough info to figure out what is happening with those who are having trouble, or why it is pretty much Vanilla users that are affected.

I will be out of pocket most of the day, so if this doesn't resolve the issues, it will probably be sometime this weekend before I have a chance to get back to it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
They will always come back. The point of deleting them (in particular the telephony file) is to let the system recreate them.

Do you have Sprint as your carrier? If not, you will probably need a different apns-conf.xml file in /system/etc. The current build source only has entries for Sprint, unlike older versions which has more carrier info.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sandmanfvr:
All my upgrades went fine, the Sept 22 build boots till the first audio sound where I think it is mounting sd card, then it reboots forever. *sigh* Backing up builds, oh well.

edit: Re flashed Aug 29 back on (never did the other Sept builds, didn't need them) and it booted up fine. Sept 22 has a bug seems like. Hopefully it gets fixed, want voice dialing.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thedarkness81:
Flash

Sorry if this has been asked and I just missed the answer, but I've been reading through and can't find the answer. Does flash work on this rom? I tried to install the 10.1 player and it crashes my browser.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Vandelay007:
No, it will not work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vayman:
Glad you got it working! This is truly one of if not the BEST 2.2 ROM's I've run so far!:D:D:D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kingjames2.0:
I just wanted to say thanks for all the ROMs, blue, black and vanilla. You Rock and they have really made my Hero better, way better, than it was. I have all them downloaded on my card because I can't decide which one I like better although I run with Blackmod. Thanks again Guys!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] izoro:
Yes I have sprint as my carrier, the other part you said was like French to me, I still learn to read computer code sorry. Can you break it down in noobie terms
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kingdazy:
Just wanted to mention before requesting/questioning: Love this ROM, somehow seems more stable than the CM6 builds, love the black theme, works pretty damned good w/ LPP.

Wondering... has anyone tried to port the droid KB to this?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DemonRagna:
Yay camera works now. But has anybody ever like got the lockscreen wallpaper different from their home screen wallpaper? I know its not an option but it glitched on me. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] easy1600:
I just wanna say great work guys; I love the ROM. I like the black theme but whose idea was it to have a black text on black (the clock)? I don't use any additional clock widgets and depend on that clock for time. I'm probably the only one. If there's a way to change that, how to I do it? I'm unaware of any settings that change the clock colors.

Thanks again for the hard work all.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Oxrod:
When you flash a newer version over an older version of your ROM with out a wipe, does something strange happen to the Apps pushed to the SD Card? And does flashing with out a wipe mess up files you have flashed like the SPINT VVM?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Flashing without a wipe will remove the Sprint VVM... just flash without wiping and then reflash the zip :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PMDColeslaw:
Settings>Cyanogen Mod Settings>UI Settings>Status bar.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
Status Bar Text Colors

Or even easier, run the "Theme Defaults" app, and it will set all the status bar text settings to white and then reboot for the changes to take effect. After that, you probably want to set the "Clear Notifications" text back to black, as the button is currently white.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] paul96:
Does this rom have sense
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
No, Pure AOSP
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
No, AOSP only, no sense UI or apps :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JGeZau:
Just flashed the rom. Pretty good so far and no problems. Let's see how it behaves in a week :P

Question: Does this come with a2sd? How do I activate it? I was previously using DC 2.09.01 and had my apps with a2sd, made a Titanium bask up, now I want to restore them.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Trust me you'll love it, CM6 is the best :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JGeZau:
Never mind, I found them under mnt/sdcard :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kingdazy:
Anyone try the BF kern with this? success? so far no actual complaints about this ROM that I can't blame on myself, but a small speedup would be nice...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
The BFS is amazingly fast and stable, with great battery life to boot :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] paul96:
Wats the difference between vanilla, blackmod, and extremely blue builds.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
They're just different visually, vanilla is plain AOSP, Blue and Black are, well, blue and black themed :D

BlackMod

Black Mod22 is running great...smooth and fast. But I do like EXTBlue. This ROM just keeps getting better and better. Keep up the good work. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] riddlebox1980:
I just wanted to let the developers and everyone on this forum know that a few months ago when alot of developers were saying they were not going to support the hero anymore due to the Evo and other phones coming out, I was sad and flashed to Sprints rom. Well a week ago I was so fed up with that rom that I came back and was looking at any replacement roms when I found the Cyanogen mod. Everything I hated about the Sprint rom is fixed and I love the phone now. There is a tiny issue, the battery charging light goes green when the phone hits 90% charged, so you think it is fully charged....Maybe it is a threshold that I can change myself...if anyone could tell me how I would appreciate it. I hope everyone continues to work on this rom and keep these phones up to date and working better than the factory rom!

Thank you all!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
LWP have trouble running on the limited performance our heros give them, so it's not just you, it's your phone :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
This is an AOSP issue and affects all Hero phones. Nothing you can do about it, it's just the way it is!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] elhpro:
Any circle battery for backmod?????????? I can not.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
Next update for BlackMod will have the same circle battery status as ExtBlue built in. (not sure when it will be up. sometime in the next day or two.)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] leadfoot9281:
quick question and it may be a noob Q lol.... im running cellular south on a cellsouth rom and would like to try out cm. the only thing im worried about is the radio changing up on me and from what i have gathered flashing radio is the one risky thing there is as far as possibly bricking my phone. i have been told that flashing this rom coming directly from the rom i have currently wont change the radio but i just wanted to kinda confirm. i know i an always just do a restore if it does change me over but i just wanted a little input first. i seem to have read so much stuff my brain is swimming with info and now im lost again..lol. thanks for any thoughts.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Flashing this rom won't change anything on the radio :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] leadfoot9281:
awesome! thanks. bout to give it a whirl :cool:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Cool, let me know how it goes :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
It won't change the radio, but you may have mms issues. The apns-conf.xml file for this ROM only has entries for Sprint CDMA. You might need to backup and restore your current APNs or replace the existing /system/etc/apns-conf.xml file.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] leadfoot9281:
yea come to think of it i remember reading something about that now. i still am a little new at all this, and picking up what i can in my spare time but is that a fairly simple fix?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bravo1565:
Still having trouble downloading extblu22 keeps saying download unsuccessful I really want try this and ideas why it won't download
[Hero CDMA Android Development] swapped:
since search is down, would someone direct me to a version of VVM that works with the latest vanilla version of this rom?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] swapped:
Thank You!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hkb18:
since search is down, not sure if it's been answered, but may i ask how you got the camera up and running?

mine would immediately force close and if i try to open the application it sometimes says cannot connect to camera.

any suggestions?

TIA

EDIT: sorry, using vanilla 23 SEPT rebuild. did a full wipe and install. was getting the camera to work as simple as updating to 24 SEPT rebuild of vanilla?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DoughnutSpanker:
I don't know, as I am using blackmod, but I expect the 24 build would help.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hkb18:
yup, seems to have done the trick. just dl'ed and flashed the 24 SEPT rebuild and camera seems to be working great. actually seems to load a lot faster than normal. maybe just cause it was the first app i ran after flash reboot.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PMDColeslaw:
Anyone had issues with the Bluetooth not coming on? I'm running the Vanilla 9/23 rebuild and bluetooth was working fine but since I turned it off yesterday it wont turn back on. Not sure why.

Also another issue I noticed is that BT voice dialing, and google voice search is having horrible results on this rom. Like I'll say call "Joe Smith, Mobile" and it'll say "Call Al Cannon at work" lol. Voice search does the same thing. I'll say "Text John Hampton... Call me when you get a chance" and it will compose a text to "(some random person)... (random message)" I havent had these issues with the voice recognition before
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
RedMod Test ROM

I made an initial Extremely Red version for a family member, and thought I would put it up here for anyone that wanted to try it. Not sure if this will be an ongoing or one time thing.

REDMOD_27SEP.zip
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
I would switch to the 24SEP version. The 23SEP version had some issues based on a few things that changed in the source for that build.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
Unfortunately, I am not much help there. I only have experience with Sprint. You could try using an APN backup and restore program from the market. or replacing the existing /system/etc/apns-conf.xml file with one from a system that is known to work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sandmanfvr:
Does the new builds fix the infinite reboot? I want to upgrade soon. Thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Pyr0TeK:
Is the BlackMod from the 22nd stable or are you going to post a 24th updated one like the vanilla? Been running the Blue for weeks now and love it. Keep up the great work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
BlackMod from 22SEP has been stable for me, and I have not seen reports of issues like the Vanilla from that build.

New builds (27SEP) will be out lated today, provided there are no issues with testing.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
What changes are in Sep27 from Sept24 vanilla?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vrundmc:
I installed Handcent and it blocks the voicemail text from coming through but the Handcent widget/icon still shows a "1" when a voicemail is left. Anyway to block that?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Vandelay007:
You need to go into handcent privacy settings and choose: show blacklist. Then back out to your messages and delete that message then you can go back and uncheck show blacklist and you're good to go
[Hero CDMA Android Development] CrashV2010:
Why don't ya just go into your default messenger, and delete it there.. LOL !!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vrundmc:
I did that...I thought there was a way to block it completely and not have to go through the manual process of deleting it. No problem. Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Vandelay007:
Once you go through those steps it shouldn't show up in handcent... it will still show up in the stock messaging app but as long as you disabled the notifications you will be fine... let me know if that's not what you meant or you need more help
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vrundmc:
I think I am not communicating what I am seeing.

I have installed Handcent and then left myself a voicemail.

A text pops up from "9016" and now I have blacklisted text from "9016"

I have deleted all my texts included the blacklisted text.

I have added the Handcent icon to my phone.

Now I test my voicemail by leaving myself a voicemail.

I do not get a text and the voicemail pops up in Visual Voicemail

BUT

On my handcent icon, there is a green "1" indicating the number of NEW texts I have. This is the blacklisted text. I wanted to get rid of that unread notification for having a blacklisted text.

I appreciate you helping me with this.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JGeZau:
I'm loving this rom, but I have a concern. When adding a new contact I can only add it as Google Contact, not as a Phone Contact. Is there a way to add them as Phone Contact?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Vandelay007:
I see....if you go to notification settings and tap notification settings in there you can choose not to show the number of unread messages...I don't know f that is important to you or not but it would solve the issue
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vrundmc:
Yes I would have to give that up, either way no big deal. Thanks for trying to help me out though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] izoro:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
Update Posted - 27SEP

Updates posted after repo sync at 8AM Eastern. These have only had the standard 30 seconds of exhaustive testing, so YMMV.

Added initial Extremely Red (RedMod) ROM variant based on the Extremely Blue theme.

This release includes both the 2D Gallery and Gallery3D, along with the modified Camera app to call the 2D Gallery from the thumbnail. The CyanogenMod VoiceDialer source was reverted to support Bluetooth Voice Command from headset and call button, so this should now work without mods from the source. Includes recent bug fixes, app enhancements, etc., including integrated OI File Manager, CMStats, and updates to Gallery3D, Camera, MMS, Music, CMParts, and more.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] CrashV2010:
I love the red one, it's look very very good on any landscape !!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] AmbientNoise:
No no the phone automatically recreates them on reboot, but they should be fully functioning .db files now and mms should work alright
[Hero CDMA Android Development] izoro:
Yeah it does now thanks again. I'm soooooooo in love with the circle battery on this 27 Sep Black Mod build. Yall are crush the hero game with these roms Please keep up the great work. I MAY NEVER GET RID OF MY HERO YALL KEEP THIS UP.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] whoopingchow:
I actually preferred having the mini-battery in the status bar instead of the circle battery tweak. Should I just flash Blackmod on top of the 9/27 build? Or is there another way of reverting back to the old battery display?

But WOW. I updated from the 8/22 build. This is SNAPPY. Holy crap. +1
[Hero CDMA Android Development] whoopingchow:
I just tried this with the 9/27 Blackmod update, and I couldn't get it to work. Anyone else with any other ideas?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vrundmc:
I flashed (without wiping) over the SEP22 update and I lost the ability to receive sound notifications for call waiting and text messages while in a call. I restored back to the SEP22 and it was fine again. So happy I did a backup!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mattynealo:
I installed SEPT 27th build and new Full Gapps: gapps-mdpi-20100926-signed.zip

I do not see quickoffice is their something I need to do install it?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mattynealo:
I am using the bluemod and just went from 9/22 to 9/27 and flashed the new full gapps and my Gmail is still updated.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] AjaxBU:
Is this 9/27 build working well for everyone? Also, do I install the CM6 .zip, then the extblue.zip, and finally the gapps.zip? Is that the right order?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
No ... the extblue.zip is not a theme for CM6, it is a different rom entirely. Simply flash the version you want (black, red, blue, vanilla), and then flash gapps afterward.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] whoopingchow:
I uninstalled Gmail and flashed Gapps over it to get the updated Gmail, and it worked. So i guess that's what you'd have to do.

Is gomorrah's stable Blackmod flashable over the Blackmod themed Rom? I've actually gotten used to the original Blackmod theme, which I prefer to the 9/27 Blackmod Rom.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JGeZau:
Can someone post BlackMod pictures? i wanna see how it looks before deciding to make the switch from Vanilla to BlackMod.

Thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
I flashed 9/27 over 9/24 (vanilla) and then flashed the updated Gapps. Everything went smoothly and everything seems to work. I especially like that Gallery 3D rotation is fixed - nice! Battery seems fine (no OC or other tweaks) and speed is good (399 Quadrant). Only issue I have is ringtones are hit or miss. Sometime I'll get the specific person ringtone but minutes later the same person will call and I'll get the standard generic ringtone, weird.

Other than that, Jaybobs roms continue to get better and better - best in class stuff.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Dan330:
for the last few versions.. my music has been very upsetting..

both in Pandora and the stock music apps.

I plays fine for a few songs.. then starts a very bad skipping issue. sounds like it plays .1 seconds of the song, skips, .1, skips, .1... and so on. it will not stop. when this happens the whole phone is stuck in some very very slow loop. I can not get it to fully wake up... so that I can end the music app. It goes into the lock screen. I have to wait till it can finish what it is doing and wake. this may take up to 15 mins. I can pull the battery to reboot if I wanted to.

I heard there was a maintenance release from HTC for the hero on Sept 22. that might fix this issue. I was wondering if Sept 27 release has it included? I was hoping it did and loaded and tested it. Pandora and stock music player (playing mp3 on my sd) still has the issue. Can anyone confirm that the new release has it and that I am doing something wrong?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Tutungzone:
Upd 27-Sep...

Works for me...

I was just updating since the 22-Sep...

1) Flashed the 27-Sep CM6 BlackMod

2) Flashed Gapps 26-Sep

3) Flashed Sprint VVM

Seems the main Gmail account was a little slow at syncing with email, but it came in finally with notifications. I would say so far so good. Checked Camera... bluetooth talk works fine, maps, LWP, seems to be working, no FC's so far.

The only thing I wish worked better was the account combining for contact pics. The one thing I liked about Sense. Is there an app that will help combine the, say FB and Gmail accounts for contacts (Free?)?

Other than that, the speed is steller... all my apps run well. iheartradio freezes every now and then after an hour or so playing... but does not need FC yet. You guys ROCK.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sandmanfvr:
Sept 27 worked for me Sept 22 didn't.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rickyq12:
Hey bro, I feel the same way about my HERO. These ROMs kick ass, I'm due for an upgrade in about a month...but don't want to get rid of this smooth and quick HERO. Very happy with these ROMs.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] djorijun:
The Facebook for Android app allows you to do this. If you know there is an FB contact that matches your contact. Edit that contact - click menu and choose Join. Done
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ElAguila:
Would it be possible to put the steps for the mms fix on the first post? I realized today that I can send an mms but I can't receive them. I remember somewhere in this thread(still looking for it) there is a fix mentioned.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Oxrod:
I can confirm I'm seeing the same thing with ringtones. I did not have this issue with Sept-22 Blue, but I see it with Spet 27 Black. (I did a complete wipe and flash)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cactus165:
27-sep redmod

Wiped and flashed from 16-SEP Vanilla to 27-SEP redmod.

Only thing I'm noticing so far is incoming text messages no longer vibrate, despite the settings all being correct. As I'm not a big text fiend, it's not a dealbreaker - but is anyone else noticing this?

(and thanks again for breathing new life into this old phone)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Rizzy6:
Does anyone know where to find some nice wallpapers for our Hero's? The cyanogen ones that are preloaded aren't my style and I have to crop pictures that I put onto the sd card., so that doesnt work. Thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Oxrod:
1 Go to Google on your phone browser

2.Search: 640x480 wallpaper

3. Hit the top "Images" tab on Google.

4. Find a wallpaper you like and click on it

5. Tap on image and touch the "View full size" button

6. After full image loads, long touch the image until a menu appears with the option for "Set as Wallpaper"

You should be able to find more with Google images on your phone browser then anyone could show you here.

This is by far my favorite rom I have ever tried. I love the blue theme and it runs great. Thanks for all of the work, I love it!

I even recolored the default icons to fit the theme :p
