In this version of android there is an option for the apps that show up in the market that you can check that says automatic update. If you don't check this box, will you still get notification when there is a new update available for the apps you have downloaded? Also how do you enable compcache on this version. Before I went to the cyanogen settings and the performance setting but compcache is not there on this version.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Davidsr1127:
Well after reading some posts about the 18th update I went to check to make sure everything worked on mine... So I flashed the 18th and the google apps updates with no wipe and everything seemed to work. Now I did have a problem after church when I tried to turn my phone on and it freaked out and I had to battery pull a few times. But my MMS works, my GPS and Navigator work, and everything else seems to be fine. Good work dev!!

I uninstalled the Japanese one with titanium backup. I haven't looked but I would assume you can do this with the built in app manager under settings or you can just use adb to pull the apks out.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sputnikk23:
I did that way back when I was flashing 2.1 roms still (booo.. froyo rules!).. and I was also told that it would need done every reboot. Checking it today due to my battery problems and it was still set to Cdma auto (prl)! So I'm good there I think..

battery life is still sucky... charged it.. unplugged it just to do the tweak real quick and it instantly went 92%. Less than 5 mins of usage?

Edit: 21 mins since unplugged (went to full charge, green light) and I'm showing 83% already!! what the fudge! biggest culprit is display which is showing 5mins on. Display brightness is set just one notch above the lowest setting and screen timeout is 30 secs.

One small step for Android, One giant leap for CDMA Hero

:):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):)

Finally, after owning a CDMA Hero on the Sprint network for 10 months, I can truly say I am happy with my phone. Why Sprint is not supporting 2.2 on the Hero is far beyond my capacity to understand:confused:.

I went from a very nice 2.1 custom rom, DamageControl_Deodexed_2.09.01, to this and it is night and day. My internet speeds are consistently three times simply because the software can process the info without epic lag. The screens switch seamlessly, I can play 3d games that I could only hope to play on a high end phone (not that I use my phone for games but that is no excuse for them not to work). The boot time is much quicker, camera is quicker.

I love the interface, just as good as SenseUI if you ask me. The phone performance is awesome compared to that it was with my old rom (which I attribute to Android 2.1 not Damage_Control, DC did wonders with the rom). This rom is already overclocked which is awesome. I am more interested in phone performance that modding the colors and look of the phone. I can now say that this HTC Hero is better than the iPhone:p.

I can now bear to use my phone for another year until the contract runs out and i can upgrade.:D Hopefully to a

1.5DC

Snapdragon with a GPU;)

I have to say that I am very well satisfied with the battery life in my phone. I use it for moderate texting and some emails, mostly to check who they are from. Yesterday my phone was off the charger for 17 hours before the 15% charge warning popped up. The battery in this phone is IDENTICAL to the battery in the EVO and I hear it is also the same as the HTC TouchPro 2 (which sadly I never owned :()

*Note: Over at Alltel they have been selling the Hero as a premium phone. Seems to me it was out dated months ago:rolleyes:.

Has anyone used Exchange yet?

[Hero CDMA Android Development] SteaminLoaf:
The green light comes on at 90% so you may not have been fully charged? I'm guessing you may have been around 94-95%. So you probably lost 10% in 21 minutes which isnt horrible. Check sync frequency on all your accounts.

hey- a trackball light!:D

Change the Phone pad

This mod is awesome!

My one request is a phone touch pad that will look up my contacts as I spell the contacts name. I know that I can search in contacts for the person I am calling but that takes longer. Often I will look-up contacts just by using the phone pad.

Is there a app that will change the phone pad. One that automatically guesses who I am trying to call????

Thanks in advanced and keep up the good work!

my phone is a unlocked and rooted sprint hero on a non sprint carrier [mobi pcs Hawaii].with fresh 2.3.3 all is well .on this rom,or any other 2.2 based[froyo] rom i cant receive a text message.i can send no problem.ANY ideas?? any help would be much appreciated.and yes i always wipe everything before flashing.:confused:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
Seriously, you are asking this again? Easily 25 of your 30 posts have been variations of this exact question. I understand you are frustrated (I would be) but if you've not received an answer by now its clear that no one really knows how to help you. My best guess is that it is because you are using mobi pcs hawaii and Froyo simply doesn't like it (and maybe never will). Why the Sense based roms work and Froyo doesn't is beyond me but at least you can use a Sense rom. There are a lot of really good ones out there, personally I'd recommend you download and use ZenFX Lite 2.1, super good and fast rom. You can modify it to look and act dangerously close to Froyo.

I don't mean to sound rude or disrespectful and I know you WANT Froyo but I don't think you'll be able to run it and get your texts working, sorry.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Williamh85:
Is there a way to request it with the Boost mms setting in there? I love everything about it expect that I cant send pics. I dont like using 2.1 but stuck for now with it. TYVM!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sputnikk23:
I know what you Mean but it was at 100.

Even so, it never drained this fast.

Exchange is on push. top takers are display at fifteen minutes and voice calls at five. Eight hours and my phone is about to die. I can't even get through a work day without a charge. I used to be able to go to bed and forget to charge It and have around 20% left. I'd love some more ideas on a possible cause.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] purebishop:
so mine got messed up...

I just installed this earlier today. Everything was working smoothly without any issues. :D I did a full TitaniumBackup. I enabled JIT, rebooted, and the phone hangs at the "htc" black screen. :( I've tried flashing to another ROM, wiping everything, and flashing back; still nothing. I loved it while it was working. Any ideas :confused:

Edit: Looks like this may have to do with still using RA v1.5.2. For some reason it was still coming up. I am going to try to install the Darchstar RA instead.

Edi2: That was it. After installing the Darchstar RA, I was able to reflash without any problem. *pats self on back for using search* Thanks!

I definitely had battery issues with Froyo. I text a lot on my phone and last night when I finally took it off the charger at 4PM to go home from work it was down to under 30% by 10PM. I didn't use it any different then when I ran 2.1 which could go all day with my usage without the worry of battery

hi all...

i tried to flash this blue rom...

it did not work.

I lost my SD card. got a replacement 16gb class6.

I also have an old 1gb class2.

i have been rooted since I got the phone in Dec and have flashed many ROMs with no issues. I was last on DC 2.1 custom Rom.

it just gets stuck in "HTC" splash screen. wait 15-30 mins. never comes out. here is what I have done...

each time i wipe the data and Dalvik.

flash the 2.2 ROM.

both from the 1gb and the 16gb.

just stuck in the black screen "htc"

what do I need to do?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ahager88:
Still running strong.

Battery life is continually outstanding, 22 hrs uptime with wifi on light to moderate use throughout. This was done entirely in my home so yes wifi was locked and enable throughout the entire power cycle.

Still havent had any stability issues with JIT, CFS, or compcache enabled, and I run all three.

Hope the rest of you get your problems worked out. :cool:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ahager88:
Did you run apps2sd on damagecontrol? If you did wipe ext2/3/4(whatever your fancy) as well as both cache options (if in amon_ra 1.7.0) and factory reset then flash. If it doesnt work that time you might be dealing with a corrupted download or card itself.

Cheers.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Dan330:
well...

I was using apps2sd.. but that was on my old sd card which is lost.

the 1gb and 16gb card is new.. and does not have any partitions on it to support apps2sd.

did both wipes..

what factory reset????
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ahager88:
What recovery are you using? Factory reset is just the data wipe.

From personal experience I would use darchstars recovery, format the SD card, do a fresh download of the rom and gapps. Wipe everything and try the install. If that doesn't work maybe your phone doesn't like overclocking at all? In that case I'd ruu, re-root, and try again from a fresh start. Its worth the trouble IMHO.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] martyskates:
does anyone have any ideas on how to make the market faster?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Dan330:
i am running recovery... 1.5.2

i reloaded the DC 2.1 Rom. to make sure it still works. It does work and boot.

redownloaded 2.2 ROM

wiped both data and dalvik

flashed ROM

it stuck in black screen with "htc"

but this time I saw it blink and vibrate 3 times..

but still stuck in same screen
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Dan330:
how long does the initial boot take??

i wait at least 15 mins.. before I give up
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ahager88:
How long are you giving it before battery pull? First boot could take awhile. Are you even seeing the CyanogenMod boot screen? Which version of the rom are you trying to install?

i just went from RA 1.5.2, to darch RA wonder if this is the reason I'm having issues flashing the new version not sure but my Nand restored just fine will wait to hear from other folks and their experiences.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] RammsteinNicCage:
Tried searching, no luck. I'm using the latest build, vanilla. I have a hotmail account setup through the stock mail app. If I have 10 new messages and delete 5 of them, during my next mail sync, I will get 5 "new" emails which are really 5 old emails at the bottom of my email list (I guess the program now always wants X amount of emails in the list and will grab the next 5 that weren't previously displayed).

Ideally, I'd like to be able to switch to displaying X amount of days, not emails, but at the very least, I'd like to stop getting notifications that old emails are new. Any suggestions?

Also, how can I delete my trash folder without individually selecting each email?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ahager88:
The only differences are that Darch RA can read and write ext4 (older versions said they could but weren't actually able to.) And the recovery is overclocked. I've been using it since it came out, never a problem. I'm starting to suspect an error in the 18 build myself, seems like some experienced users are hanging at the HTC screen.

Updates Posted - 21AUG

Just posted updates for Blue and Vanilla. Built after repo sync this morning. You can check the CyanogenMod Source twitter feed to review changes. Updated the 2D Gallery apps in post 2. Updated the kernel to restore swap/compcache. Also included loadable kernel modules from kernel build.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Lowenski:
Is any one working on porting Flash to the ROM?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
This has been answered hundreds of thousands of times. Flash is made for arm7 chips, and herocs have arm6. So no, and it never will work.

Sent with Hero juice using XDA power
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
Awesome, thanks for doing this. Question, what are "loadable kernel modules"? I see when I run Quadrant that the one installed is running at 691. Since I don't run SetCPU or Battery Tweak or any of that nonsense I don't believe I can kick it to 710, right? I was running the previous nightly with Darch 710UVOC kernel (#9 I believe), is this still cool to run to get 710 or is there something better that is provided by you in the download?

BTW, I have this build running with both JIT annd CompCache running and so far it is running very smooth :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
Loadable kernel modules are object files that extend the base kernel. This includes the wlan.ko file used to provide Wi-Fi support, and the ramzswap.ko file that provides compcache support. These files are found in the /system/lib/modules/... directories, and provide things like ipv6 support among other things.

You can use SetCPU or OC Widget to overclock to 710 if you want. You can probably also use other 2.2 kernels for CM6 Heroc builds. I can't make any promises, as I have not tested them myself. I would, as always, make a nandroid backup in case you run into issues. YMMV.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rmars:
Hey thanks for the reply.. yeah I've been rooted since dec09 pretty experienced still a n00b haha but yeah pretty simple should be able to flash the upgrade without wiping no win. So I wiped, flashed still looping will check the next update.. :(

funny as ive seen a few roms with full flash installed. :rolleyes:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
The ones you've seen have been Sense-based 2.1. There was a Flash 10.1 zip that was made specifically for Sense 2.1 (ZenHero, for example, has this), but on AOSP-based 2.2 there is no such mod. Also, the 10.1 on those devices is basically a bulkier version of FlashLite ... not like you're suddenly going to run hulu from your Hero.

I realize my reaction was both unnecessarily sarcastic and poorly worded, so I'm sorry for that. But as of yet, the full Flash experience (and I mean FULL ... hulu and other "blocked" sites included) does not exist on the Hero, nor will.

Can't establish a reliable connection to google

After a full wipe and flash of this rom and gapps. when the phone starts and asks to sign in google account. I have 3g working and I input my google account info. but after a minute it says Can't establish a reliable connection to google.

I googled this for a whole night. I found a work around to get the account to connect. I open youtube and login to google account. then I go to settings and check to sync contacts and gmail.

up to this point it's great. but it seems that the market doesn't like this.

When I open the market, I get "Attention: an error has occurred. Please try again later."

there is no way to connect to the market where I get some important apps, the main one of which is a file manager like astro which I have to install from adb.

Please look into this. I get this problem only with aosp roms.

even on wifi this doesn't work. and a factory reset doesn't fix it.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] denstark:
Hello,

Just flashed this rom tonight, and it's looking great! I just had a few quick questions about it.

I noticed that Google Search, Voice Search, and Voice Dialer are constantly running. Killing them with a task killer doesn't do much as they automatically start again. Any way to stop them from doing that?

My second questions is about wifi -- have there been any reported problems? My wifi hasn't connected and just sits at 'Scanning'. When I try to connect to my access point nothing happens. Maybe a bug or maybe I'm just doing something wrong.

Thanks for the rom!
