I can't sync to google either. It Have had this problem for a while now. through 3g or wifi.

I can always sync google on 2.1 Please do you have any fix to that.

there is a workaround, by logging in youtube app. However, that only syncs gmail and contacts. It doesn't sync market or talk which don't work

IMAP is turned on on my gmail because I use sms gmail backup

Please, Please, Please, Help

upgraded

Ok..i'm always a Noob...........i downloaded this ROM and it works fine...but I couldnt find anything.....

how do you get the Android market...i see the GAPPS..but i dont know how to install it...

if i get the GAPPS installed, will that get me all the apps i'm looking for...i use pdanet. How do you sync with outlook?

thanks for your patience....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] diesel joe:
You have to flash gapps just like you did the rom. This will give you google, contacts, and the market. Then you just sign into your google account.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kingdazy:
most of this should have been posted/asked in general/questions... but a Really good place to start is this thread, impaler can giude you through most things, possibly getting you to connect to outlook. (who uses outlook? :p)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lisnupjr:
Worth it?

I have a rom that works beautifully. Last time i tried Froyo i couldn't even get on the market cuz there was just nothing there. it was basically a phone that i couldn't text on. is it a true working ROM now? if so yay i'll try it. Who knows if i'll like it. but i still want to try.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] diesel joe:
It is the best rom I have ever used. I like sense, but the speed and battery life of this made me ditch sense.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lisnupjr:
grrr i love sence though. its okay. i lived without for months before till this rom.

looking forward too it

but i just realized i don't have my USB link with me to connect the dam phone (in class) so i have to wait to get home.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kinextions:
I like sense also.....how can i find the widgets like calendar android? and can you use the HTC sync to import outlook2007?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
No HTC sense apps or widgets will work on an AOSP rom such as this one.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kingdazy:
dont know a thing about Outlook and Android, would not touch it (outlook) with a tenfoot ROM...

as for all of the benefits of Sense, well there are a few (and lots of threads discussing it). but generally, everything "widgety" about sense can be filled with using LauncherProPlus. I'll never go back to Sense. Not until the devs finish a Froyo version, anyway. (it's ALL about the A2SD.)

EDIT: Lol, of course Impaler beats me to it. ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Lmao :D But I agree with your synopsis of LPP, just as good as sense!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xxassassinxx:
Great work with the latest release currently using the red glass oct 12, and my only issue is that I've noticed I am only able to install certain apps, everything else always downloads then tries to install, but fails ex. Handcent or quadrant. It give no error just a small triangle saying the download failed to install. It only seems to happen while running either of the current froyo roms.

Any ideas or help would be appreciated.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] caaznkid:
Does anybody have a problem with the red glass theme where when you go into an application and you press menu to look at all the options, all the icons and words under the icons are all messed up and jumbled together?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] caaznkid:
I thought the 10/12 version of this rom already updated to decad3nce's 10/12 kernel (not sure if its CFS OR BFS tho)? This rom doesn't have the "stock" cm6 kernel on it does it?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] joshk89:
Vanilla ftw, the voicemail fix works nice, smooth and snappy rom, good work to all!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
I am working on this. There looks to be an image size or layout error with the menu icons. I hope to have time to fix this is the next day or two.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
Definitely not the "stock" cm6 kernel. Not exactly the same as decad3nce stable CFS kernel, but very close.

His stable 10/12 CFS kernel has an additional update that is not in the kernel in this release (it will be in the next build). I personally haven't seen much difference with that update, but people that have had problems with low memory have had positive results.

If you are looking to try a different kernel the 10/12 Stable CFS would be my choice. The BFS kernel is also great work, I just prefer the CFS version.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] glen4cindy:
As I've stated before, I'm running the Extreme Blue mod, and it's the best I've tried so far, but, I've been reading over and over about people using different kernels, and I don't quite understand this. What exactly does running a different kernel do for me? With all but a couple of hiccups, this is a wonderful find, WAY better than what Sprint had loaded on here with all that S*L*O*W SenseUI stuff!

Thanks for the info.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lilmikeyv:
Please help!!! I'm pretty new to all this but with everybodys help and the easy to use guides I was able to root and test out some different roms:) I really love how fast and smooth this one is, but when I used rom manager on this it sent me to clock something for recovery...now all my previous nand backups go into a boot loop when I try to restore. What happened? And is there any way to fix?...flashed to amon RA 1.7, but same thing. Please, I apologize if this is the wrong area to post this, but any help is greatly appreciated!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sputnikk23:
as soon as the camera is fixed I AM ON THIS! keep up the good work.

Flash

Is flash not working?

I have tried to intall this verison of flash and I get error Application not installed

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=688054

I then tried to install flash from

labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html#android

which states you must have access to the market for 2.2 which I jut installed the google apps file you have on here

I found a APK file for adobe flash, installed it but when I load it or any browser downloaded from the market it loads the browser and automatically closes out of it.

Also, I know live wallpapers are not supported on the Hero but with this ROM does it enable the live wallpaper?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ptowsvc:
loving this rom!!!mahalo for all of the hard work from everyone involved!!:):)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ThaMadDoctor:
Is there anyway to set the main wallpaper and lock screen as different pictures?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] prezmater:
same ways as any other rom
[Hero CDMA Android Development] prezmater:
dont be a douch, i knew about the camera issue just not the facebook an beautiful widgets. You one of the people whos **** dont stink becuz you have more than 500 posts?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dryvali:
Gallery

Has anyone had issues with the Gallery when switching orientations? I have been using this rom for a couple of days now and this is really the only issue i have encountered. I have tried other picture/gallery viewers, but the stock Gallery is the only one I've encountered this issue with.

vanilla cm6 jul 29...straight up 2.2??

If I use the Vanilla CM6 Jul 29 version...that is just a straight up, vanilla android 2.2? no sense, is that correct? im interested in 2.2 but have been waiting for the official to see if anyone will produce something based on official. thank you thank you
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Shelnutt2:
There is will no official 2.2 for the hero. Both HTC and sprint have said so. There might be some sense ports onces MT3GS or other arm6/7 devices get sense in 2.2. However as of right now, only plain jane AOSP roms like this or CM6 are the only way to get Froyo.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ThaMadDoctor:
i've tried but when i do set as it only lets me choose wallpaper or contact
[Hero CDMA Android Development] prezmater:
Long press on an empty space on a home page. Then select your wallpaper. It works for me :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danaff37:
Not trying to be mean, but the way you asked about the camera, I really did think you were kidding. When it comes to your widgets, make sure they are stored on phone and not the sd card... Under settings, applications, find the app and click move to phone
[Hero CDMA Android Development] FireDog31262:
After moving my applications to the SD card the icon for the applications on my desktop are the default android icon. Is this a bug in this rom?

I have removed the applications from my desktop and re-added them and that fixes the problem until I reboot the phone. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: This has to be a bug with ADW Launcher because when I go into the settings for ADW Launcher and change something that causes it to reload the icons show up properly. Would still appreciate any help with this problem.

Questions

I've read through the forum and I really want to give this rom a shot but i was hoping someone could answers some questions for me before i did.

Currently i'm running Fresh 2.3.3 and I was wondering if anyone else came from Fresh and had any issues?

If I understand correctly I can flash this like i would for a Fresh rom and i can use Amon RA recovery 1.6.2 to flash?

I've never done a nandroid recovery before but if i wanted to go back to Fresh 2.3.3, i can make a backup and recover straight back the way it was before? I've already made a nandroid backup.

I'll have to wipe data/ext and the whole sd card or just data/ext?

Any other notes/pointers anyone want to throw out there :)?

Thanks for the help.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ptowsvc:
ok gang i love this rom using 3 days now.played with phone and apps while drinking beer last night and cant figure out where a constantly changing -71ish to -91ish showed up in my status bar between the signal meter and the 3g icon.please help!!!cant figure this out for the life of me.:confused::confused::confused: mahalo
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wjason:
It's displaying your signal as a numeric value. There is a "show dbm" setting in the cyanogen category under settings, user interface.

I hope that helps.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tailsthecat3:
I understand this. However, my main query is: which is just a 'straight up' vanilla version of 2.2? No theme, overlay, etc.

Thank you thank you
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ptowsvc:
mahalo that did it!!!no more drinking beer and playing with my phone!!!thanks again:)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] phreak311:
Everything works great with 2.2 The only problem is can't send picture messages. But oh well...keep up the good work!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] feefeeboomboom:
Hey man, So I get a fc in cyanogen settings under date and providers after running the default theme app. Just FYI. Oct12 EXTBLUE.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mattynealo:
You need to change your app install settings to internal or automatic.

menu, settings cyanogenmod settings. application settings, install location. Some apps don't like being installed to the SD card. I change mine to internal install app and then change it back. most of the time once installed you can move it to SD card.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] feefeeboomboom:
Also what would cause really bad graphic rendering of the UI? I had the same problem on AOSPMOD. the Rom just looks horrible. CM doesn't do this and either did blue

mod. VANILLA Oct12
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kingdazy:
sounds like a bad flash, plain n simple... running the same ver. + CFS kernel. looks fricken great. triple wipe + davlek cache wipe, reflash, might fix this? (from your post count, doesnt look like I need to tell you anything. ;) )
[Hero CDMA Android Development] feefeeboomboom:
Lol post count ;) I used to ask dumb ?..

Anyway, that was with several reflashes. I don't really get it. I'm running cm6 now and its normal. There are a few rendering things I noticed like Google search looks really ugly on a page scroll and the hand for gapps setup had some pixelation by the finger tip. it only used to be with aosp mod but now this to.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Do you have scrollable widgets enabled in your launcher settings? This may be causing the distortion.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cordell12:
My wife and I had this on both of our heros, extremely blue, and vanilla. In the launcher you need to turn off Wall Paper Hack, Scrolling Cache (disabled), and Scrollable Widget Support. This will clear it up while scrolling screens. Come to think of it I dont remember this in cm6 either, I did see it in aosp mod as well though. It is annoyin thats for sure! Look at slacker app, the black looks horrible, even the brown color when XDA is loading, flip phone sideways and see how bad it is! I may go back to cm6...

UPDATE... I went back to cm6, no wipe beside devlik and I got the same issue on it. I dont recall the grainy/fuzzy screen on cm6 before. Maybe I need a full wipe to get back to a fresh install of cm6, I was using oct12 extremely blue. Anyway since it looked the same I nandroid back to my back up I had just made. Could it be a kernel issue?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaysin2719:
Noob question here perhaps, but how do I install the google apps again. I just installed this ROM and have the zip file for gapps on the SD card, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to install them again so I can have market back
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kingdazy:
flash them (the .zip file), right after flashing the rom, or whenever.

usually I flash in this order:

ROM ~> CFS Kern ~> gapps ~> extras like VVM
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaysin2719:
do I use clockwork to flash them? Like I said, noob questions I know :(. If it helps I am using HTC HeroCDMA

Think I figured it out thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kingdazy:
have you flashed a ROM yet?

same procedure.

boot into recovery, choose .zip file from SD card, apply it. :-) easy peasy.

awesome! ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] feefeeboomboom:
Make sure you stay in the cdma hero section when flashing stuff.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yeah, otherwise you could end up with a paperweight for a phone ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] feefeeboomboom:
So I just thought that maybe I got a crappy screen with my refurbished hero. That could be some of it for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
That's always a possibility
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cordell12:
I don't think so, its something else. My wife's hero, new from sprint does the same thing, with vanilla and cm6. I see it in both extremely blue and plain cm6 as well. I guess I just didn't really notice it before. I might try flashing a older kernel, maybe its something to do with that?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xxassassinxx:
Solved my problem, thanks:)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] feefeeboomboom:
It might be the new source?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Can't be, as plain CM6.0.0 hasn't been updated with the new source yet, but he still sees it on that
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cordell12:
I flashed cm6 along with new kernel last time. If I do a full wipe can I still nandroid back to my current set up? I have to much time into current set up, lol. Got me thinking though, could it be the new kernel...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Correct, if you nandroid, you can go right back :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cordell12:
I did a wipe, wipe devlik, flashed cm6, wipe again, wipe devlik again, then booted. CM6 started and I still had my gapps, and market was trying to restore apps. The screen was still grainy/fuzzy, kernel was #2, it must be something else. I have a spare SD card and will try to do this from nothing at all. Maybe a app is messing with it, what feefeeboomboom is describing and what I am seeing on both heros at my house sound like the same thing. By turning off the scrolling cache, wallpaper hack, and scrollable widget it looks way better, but I loose ability to use a handcent widget :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Well at least you know what the problem is ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] prescot123:
All others CM6 worked fine for me, but I made a clean 10/12 install on my wife's phone and now I'm having a hard time trying to activate the visual voice mail. Already changed the *86 to her number, but still not working... I installed the same ROM to my phone without wipe and it's working perfect... Any idea?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Dial *38 on the phone where it doesn't work, and then try leaving that number a voicemail... should work after that
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
I wonder. Is the concept of odexing the same with Froyo? Is it needed/helpful at all?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
No... all of these roms are pretty much deodex, since they're AOSP :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] prescot123:
That was fast!! Tks... but *38 just disconnect me after 3 seconds... any other idea?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
That's what it should do ;) Now leave a voicemail, and it should work
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
Isn't it possible to odex one of these builds for faster performance then? If one was not interested in theming?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Well odex is only faster in boot-up, not actual overall performance. And I don't think there's much of an odex/deodex differentiation with AOSP.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] crxmax:
Ive been running the latest build of darkmod for the last 5 days coming from odex zen-exp. and while i dont think there is much performance difference its good not to feel left out from froyo anymore. still i think sense is smoother in some aspects. I have some questions i hope someone can help me out with:

1. is everyone's "search" app pretty laggy? and why does it take you to an app when you use it from the widget. my gf's stock mytouch doesn't even do that

2. my facebook pictures wont sync =[

3. and the most important - I see alot of mods out there for this rom (firerat,collins, different kernels). Any recommendation on tweaking this out for better performance??

thanks in advance.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Davidsr1127:
So my camera app freezes all the time and I have to do a battery pull... Works less than half the time, and seems to work once or twice right after a battery pull!! Any fixes or suggestions? And I'm not complaining, just seeking advice :) I love this ROM the most by far! I've tried a few here and there, but this is an overall stable, fast, and reliable daily ROM...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Try flashing decad3nce's kernel, I believe he fixed this issue :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hotaru:
the kernel in this rom has the same fix.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
New Test Builds posted

New builds of EXTBLUE, VANILLA, BLACKMOD, and REDGLASS are posted on Mediafire. I may do a rebuild in the morning before updating the OP, so no promise that this won't be replaced with an updated version tomorrow. This will depend on testing results, and whether there continue to be significant source updates.

Lots of updates/bug fixes the last couple of days to CM6 repos. A new feature, "Galaxy S Style Power Widget" was added to the notification bar pulldown.

Kernel updated to include lowmemorykiller patch (as noted, it already included the hw3d patch for Camera freeze).

The RedGlass version has the icon sizes in the menus fixes, along with several other theme updates. Not yet complete, but getting closer.

You can access the updates (along with the older versions and gapps) at the main MediaFire shared folder:

http://www.mediafire.com/JB_CM6_ROMS

UPDATE:

You may want to hold off on flashing this, as there are some issues that need to be looked into with /system/lib/copybit.msm7k.so. I will take a look and re-post once it is resolved. In the meantime, replacing that file from CM6 or perhaps an earlier version and wiping dalvik cache has been reported to correct the issue (Thanks Decad3nce!).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Newklearx3:
Quick question. I'm running Sept 27 if I flash the update will I loose everything again?

@jaybob

Flashed the Red Glass Oct 17.

Was getting mass copybit fails.

E/copybit ( 146): copyBits failed (Invalid argument)
D/copybit ( 146): 0: src={w=320, h=480, f=0, rect={0,338,13,73}}

D/copybit ( 146): flags=00020000
E/libagl ( 146): copybit failed (Unknown error: -22)

But the performance was impressive even with the crapout; I pushed the copybit.msm7k.so from CM6, wiped dalvik, rebooted and all the errors were gone; but performance dropped off a bit. I was wondering which copybit.msm7k.so you were including in this? Is it the one from the Wildfire leak?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
Built libcopybit from the updated CM6 repo. There were a number of changes recently in the android_hardware_msm7k repo for some additional variants. I will take a look at this tomorrow and try to fix or else revert to an earlier commit.

Thanks for the catch.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Decad3nce:
I'll check it out myself. If I can catch the problem, I'll have it in gerrit before class tomorrow.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
Sounds good. I am going to do a make clobber and start a completely clean build before I go to sleep to make sure it is not an artifact of previous builds.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cordell12:
Extremely blue seems to running just fine. Flashed last night and no issues yet, thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] piranah:
Im running the oct 12 and getting mass force closes and random reboots. I was late to a job cuz I was talking to the person getting directions and it decides to reboot on me. Is the 17th build gonna be better?

Froyo is too sweet for iclones
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Should I use autokiller with this?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Davidsr1127:
Please don't blast me for asking this, lol... But can you flash another version of this ROM (like the red glass over the blackmod) without wiping? I'm running the blackmod and was curious to try out the redglass but don't want to re-setup!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
I do, set to no higher than aggressive :)
