You should always wipe device data, wipe ext part and wipe dalvic when installing a new ROM, unless of course you want random issues.

A2SD should automatically be working if you did everything stated in an earlier post. Dalvic cache will still be stored on device memory and will gradually consume storage space. Dalvic can be moved to the SD card using the Android SDK.

You must have the SDK installed and setup. If you do not have it go here for download and instructions. http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

Open a command prompt from your windows based computer (hit enter after each line).

cd c:\android-sdk-windows\tools

adb remount

adb shell

a2sd cachesd

After entering the adb shell there should be a # on the next line. Type in the a2sd cachesd command on that line then hit enter. It will appear to be hanging at one point in it's process or you may think it has finished but it's not just let it go until it reboots the phone. Be patient. Remember when it's finished it will reboot the phone. When it boots back up you should notice a considerable increase in your Internal Storage. I usually gain from 40 to 70MB of Internal storage by moving dalvic.

Happy Hacking!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pegb856:
Follow these steps in setting up your A2SD. If you set up your A2SD using this guide there is no need for a separate application to get it configured.

Go tech support, lol, great job peg. And thanks to everyone who is helping out, I am around just busy one other things that got put off while I was doing the roms. I should have more time by the end of the week to be around a little more.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] athanos:
You are correct. Any time you change a ROM that uses apps2sd you need to wipe everything. The only time you do not have to wipe ext is when you are flashing another version of the same ROM. Of course, sometimes you just have to still, lol. I always wipe completely even when upgrading my existing ROM. I have only had a boot loop once in all the times I have flashed ROMs and that was because it was a corrupted download.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] BrandoKC:
Everyone please remember to wipe front to rear :) O.k. that was juvenile!

After wiping and reflashing I ended up having more reboots last night.

Today I redownloaded the entire ROM package and wiped everything.

Hopefully I just had a corrupted dl the first time because I absolutely love this ROM and would hate to move to anything else.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Tibson:
Thanks, I wasn't sure about dalvic but I saw the data folder was moved so I just trusted it was doing its thing. When I get home I'll transfer dalvic to SD and see what that does for the internal storage.

This ROM is blazing fast and I love the theme, no problems at all!

I'm always glad to be of help.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pegb856:
If your issue persists I suggest repartitioning your SD card in case something is corrupted there. Don't forget to backup your content to your computer since a partition will reformat and wipe everything.

Good luck.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] BrandoKC:
Thanks! I will give that a go if I need, hopefully I'm good to go now.

Not seeing caller ID..

I had this problem with another rom I installed a while back. When i'm on a call and another call comes in I hear the beep from the earpiece but there is nothing on the screen identifying the caller nor is there a way to answer the call. Any ideas?

Besides that the rom has been flawless. Thanks a lot for all the time and effort nfinite.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JB in AZ:
nfinitefx45...when you have time...I have been thinking about trying out the ZenHeroFX 2.0. When I click on the link in your sig, it takes me to the first post, and unless I am blind, I don't see a link to the 2.0.

Also, what are the differences in 2.0 and 2.1 lite? Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ghsoler:
Unfortunately still can't get the phone to work with any of the oc'ed kernels flashed. It simply won't get past the boot screen. I did try to use ddms but ddms doesn't even connect to the phone while it has been flashed with the oc'ed kernel. It connects just fine with I load the phone using the stock kernel provided with your ROM. Not sure what to do at this point. BTW haven't even tried to use JIT so that can be ruled out
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
If you get a chancecheck this post and try the new zenkernel r1 it just might work
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
Well 2.1 lite was cleaned and tweaked for stability and speed. it is the same rom, just less junk for better operation, I am making addon packs that you can flash to customize the rom to the individuals liking.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JB in AZ:
Thank you for the quick reply. I suppose if I had been following the thread from the begininng, I would have known that. There are just too many pages to read them all. And I was confused by the 2.0 link in your signature. Thanks again, I plan on trying this rom in the next few days...it does have widespread acclaim. :)

Thank you soo much it worked. Having some weird restarts and power offs but we will see how it plays out. However, i didn't see youtube app on my list. What is the command to install the youtube app?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pegb856:
Here's a link that you can get some commands from. http://augendev.wikispaces.com/Adb+for+beginners

The YouTube app should be pushed to /system/app/
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pegb856:
I'm not having any issues with mine, I have 691 kernel installed with minimal memory management, the one nfinite posted a couple days ago. This is the name of it: Stock_vUV3_691_M_signed. No jit. I was having a couple glitches and nfinite suggested I wipe and repartition my card, that fixed my issues. Of course when I did this, I wiped everything clean and started fresh.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
I had same problem if you have JIT enabled,try disabling it thats what i did. This ROM is fast enuff for without JIT
[Hero CDMA Android Development] -l3x-:
If i have ap2sd would i still want to push it to /system/app or will there be another location. Where is the youtube apk location on the phone?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
that location is fine, but your other loacation would be data/app

[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
no reason being that alot of phone dont like undervolting it will generat serious lag when exiting the sleep state. the one posted is jst 601 without any extras, this was to make sure the users got the best experience from the rom, without anything else possibly causing an issue.

Rock-on

Hello,

Rom runs fantastic. I am using the 691v4 kernal and setpcu. I noticed that after use the setpcu either looses root access or forgets the kernal because it scales back to 528? You have to reboot to get the 691 back up, any ideas? I am very impressed with this rom and it is just fun again.:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] -l3x-:
Ok I am still having trouble getting Youtube on my sdcard. I did these commands:

adb pull /system/app/YouTube.apk C:\android-sdk-tools

I used this to move the app to my computer, however it gives me and error adb: not found.

What am I doing wrong?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chatsfire:
you are trying to move it back to the phone, correct? You need to push it, not pull it.

adb pull source destination (pull from the phone to the computer)

adb push source destination (push it from the computer to the phone.)

There is a thread on here (son't recall where, search for it) that explains how to use adb. there is also a post a few back that has a link to a very good primer.

If nothing else, a google search for adb commands would lend some great results.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] -l3x-:
Yes. My issue though is that i get an error.

adb: not found
[Hero CDMA Android Development] BrandoKC:
I was able to place the youtube apk on my sd card and install it with "installer" from the market.

Almost 24 hours no reboots. Life is good!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pegb856:
If you have followed all the instructions and installed the sdk properly the tools path should be:

c:\android-sdk-windows\tools\

You should place the app in that folder then push it to your phone.

To verify everything is installed properly and it is acknowledging your device. Open a command prompt and type:

cd c:\android-sdk-windows\tools

adb remount

adb devices

It should show your devices ID if everything is installed properly and the phone is connected.

If it's not there then refer back to the previous posts with links to installing and setting up the Android sdk.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] runngwlf:
Flashed this one last night and it is running sooooo smooth! I was running Fresh Rom 2.3.3 with an overclocked kernal and JIT enabled and having reboot and force close issues like crazy. I had one force close (when I applied a metamorph theme to move the rosie buttons) but a reboot fixed it and I was good to go. The flash of the sprint "bloat" did not work for me, but I was able to pull the apk I wanted and just install them with ES file explorer including the you tube APK.

Not sure why but I had to push the HTC widgets to my phone, they would not download through the "Add htc widgets" menu, they would download, but never install? Not a biggie for me though.

Great job!!!!!!!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pipefitter:
Not to flame anyone in particular, but the reason there are so many pages to read through is because people post questions WITHOUT reading the forum. I work 10 hours a day, 6 days a week and I have still been able to read every post on every forum that addresses the problems I may be having with my phone. Only then do I post a question, mostly asking for clarification. Too many people want someone else to do all the work for them. The devs at xda are already putting in countless hours making our phones better than HTC ever imagined. Nfinite does this AND provides the best, most efficient support of ALL the devs. So no more excuses about too much reading...I know nfinite has read every post, every page. Just my 2 cents.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jschill31:
+1 to that! This rom is smooth as silk.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
I am glad to see most like the rom and that the support you show others is outstanding. Good job everyone this is what makes a great community!!

No JIT here
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MrDowntown12:
I too have this issue. As does my brother. Obviously it's nothing major, but it can be annoying when trying to type slang words.

nfinite, any idea why this is happening? could it be since the stock kb isn't on the rom it can't edit the dictionary? I'm sure its an easy fix, no rush though. You can probably just add it to the add ons your going to make.

Again thanks for all your hard work.

Thanks.

Edit: Never mind, I dun figured it out. But I would like a like to know if there is an add on that would put the db signal strength next to the bars? Anybody know of one?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] -l3x-:
It all worked out. Thank you all.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Tibson:
This might not be the best place to ask but search didn't do it for me. I know that this kernel has on demand for the OC and setup or ocwidget isn't needed, but what determines when the on demand kicks in? My battery is getting hammered just using the music player at work with the screen off. Does music push it to 691?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mozman:
In addition to using "installer". You can also use the ES File Manager that is included in nfinite's ROM. Or Astro file manager.

OR you can use the HTC Sync program to install. Connect your phone to your computer, change your USB connection type to "Sync", Run HTC Sync and the installer feature should appear.

Just remember in all cases you have to enable the Hero to allow installation of non-Market apps:

Go to Settings>Applications>Unknown Sources

battery problems

I installed the ROM with no problems but the battery has been draining extremely fast and my phone has gotten quite hot over the past hour. I plugged it in and the light indicates that it's charging, but really isn't. How can I fix this?

EDIT: Seems like the recent facebook update was the problem.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sekarpdkt:
I had same issue.1% per 2 to 3min. after couple of reset, one battery pull ... after 3 days cool off ... working great. So, try to perform battery pull... observe for 2 days. Might stabilize. I am running plain vanilla 2.1 lite. Yesterday I got 3 hrs wake up time... approx 2 hrs talk time, 16 hrs after full charge it was at 16%.

Some time back I posted that the hero halted, if I left it charging for 7 hrs and no other activity. Past 3 days no such issue. As I was traveling, idle time was 5 to 6 hrs only.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jschill31:
Tibson,

I have only had the rom dialed in for a day but I too have found some kinda kernal snafoo? I first loaded setpc because I missed the auto thing and it ran great for a few hours than started to freak out and lag bigtime. My feelings it that it was underpowering or loosing root access but not sure? I unintalled it and my phone took off! The kernal does seem to fly without any control software. I think it redlines as soon as you start a program so your music player is screaming fast but it is using more juice. I too use my phone for programs because that is why we love this phone...right? I am currently trying the other wiget, It is at the market for free and I searched for overclock. It has a terrible grafic but is working and gives you a visual of what speed the processor is running at. I am going to give it a day or so to see if it does good or bad things. Who knows if it is doing anything at all? I can tell you this rom is frikin fast using the provided 691 kernal. I wished more people took the chance to try this rom, they would love their hero again. I will try to post my results in the next day or so.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jschill31:
Rexant1,

You want to flash the LWP zip that is on the first page. All you need to do is put it on the root of your sd card and boot to recovery. Flash it just like you did the rom but do not wipe anything. It does work and run good but several of the LWP do not stick after next unlock. I have found the mario, flying toaster and flying android stick and I am sure there are more. Fun at times but is a battery burner.

Did you push it or mount as a drive? I would mount as a drive using usb and verify the file is there and at the root of your card. I found that you can only flash one thing at a time without getting an error. Good luck

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jschill31:
Rexant1,

Why do you say it is in the folder? The zip needs to be located the same way you put the rom zip on the sd card. It also needs to stay in zip form, could you have unzipped it? "Root of sd card" means it can NOT be located in any folders or it will not be seen by the recovery program. When you double click on your sd card if you do not see the zip file in the first box that opens it is not in the root of the card. Hope this helps you... I am trying to help.

It's definitely something that your phone doesn't like in this ROM, not sure why it happens though.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] athanos:
So, after commenting out line 373 of the update script the phone boots up beautifully and I have been running it for a little bit now. The only issue I am having is that twice now the rosie fc'ed while trying to add the Messages widget. I'm not sure if that is because I commented out that line or not. I wouldn't think that is causing the issue, but you never know. I remember having that issue with some of th eother ROM's I have run as well. Other widgets seem to load just fine though. I will update again later after running it for awhile and see if I have any more problems. If all goes well I will OC it tonight.
