I also have the tweak installed, but after searching, I have not been able to find the screen where it shows the Up time vs. Awake time.

I have the Oct. 4 Extreme Blue Mod flashed. Can anyone show me how to find this menu? I've looked under Menu, Settings, About, Battery Use, and Staus, each one shows Up time, but, neither shows Awake time that I can see. Spare Parts also does not seem to show Awake time.

I know under my Stock Hero ROM it was under About, Battery. However, this ROM is so great, I doubt I will ever go back to any of Sprint's sense based ROM's. I thought I would miss the Sense UI, but, I am finding that I don't miss it at all.

I might still try other ROM's but, this one so far is just fabulous. I greatly appreciate all of the great minds that went into this great ROM. I am great with PC hardware, but, have no ability whatsoever when it comes to programming. So, I have a great appreciation for the people that have the ability to turn out such a great product as this. THANK YOU!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] glen4cindy:
Have you actually flashed it and tried it? I really thought I would miss Sense. I don't! I'm running the Extreme Blue Mod, and the only thing I might end up doing so far is d/l Dialer One. I honestly don't miss Sense at all. I installed Fancy Widget because I really liked the flip clock with weather on the home screen. Other than that, I have found nothing at all of the SenseUI that I have missed. I did install Gapps, which you could take or leave with this build, but, I wanted them so I flashed them.

I'd do a Nandroid and give it a chance. If you don't like it, just Nandorid back.

If all you want to sync is your contacts/calendar...you can without syncing to your pc...

Import your numbers/calendar to gmail...then star them for android. All your numbers and your calendar will go straight to your phone without connecting to your pc.

Any Chance of getting one for the BlackMod?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] glen4cindy:
I see where you are going with this, but, HTC needs to see that it isn't really exactly the same. It does not do anything even close to what the HTC flip clock and weather widget does, as in clouds, lightening, rain, windshield wiper, etc. It may look the same most of the time, but, I do miss the "animation" the HTC one had that Fancy Widget does not have. Guess I will have to buy Beautiful Widgets to get this back if I want to run this ROM.

Believe me, Froyo does NOT need Sense. It's AWESOME without it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hexskrew:
Well this doesn't have anything to do with sense, but I am going to make custom eri.xml files for everyone to change the carrier name.

It can only be so many characters long (I am testing it. It's supposed to be 16 but I call b.s. cause it's not taking that many).

I'll keep you updated

Well 9 chars (literally)

Here's what I have got:

Here ya go! This file has all the above phrases pre-packed in a ready to go framework-res.apk file!

http://www.mediafire.com/?267pg4c6p3g18x4

How to is in the file! Instructions lower are for making your own.

(((Prerequisites)))

1. Android Device (doesn't have to necessarily be a phone)

2. Root

3. Working adb connection to phone

4. 7zip

5. HxD or another hex editor

(((How To)))

1. Connect your phone and mount your it with adb.

2. use adb to pull the framework-res.apk file from the phone

3. open the framework-res.apk file with 7zip

4. go into the res/xml folder

5. pull eri.xml from the zip file and open with HxD or your favorite hex editor

6. scroll down until you find the provider name (usually sprint)

7. Change the name to whatever you want. WARNING! Depending on your phone you can have as little as 9 characters available all the way to 16. It depends on the phone. I have found that the Hero CDMA only has 9.

8. Save eri.xml, and copy it back into the zip file via drag and drop into 7zip.

9. Using adb, push the file back onto the phone. You may have to reset it to get it to show up.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hotaru:
or do it the easy way:

3. apktool d framework-res.apk

4. start notepad framework-res\res\xml\eri.xml

5. change it to whatever you want

6. save the file

7. close notepad (not really necessary but i wanted the same number of steps)

8. apktool b framework-res framework-res.apk

Update Posted - 12OCT

Updates posted after repo sync at 10AM Eastern on 12-October. These have only had the standard 30 seconds of exhaustive testing, so YMMV.

This release still includes both the 2D Gallery and Gallery3D, along with a modified Camera app. The Gallery3D has the Camera button restored, but the Camera thumbnail still invokes the 2D Gallery for review. VoiceDialer source was reverted to support Bluetooth Voice Command from headset and call button. Includes recent bug fixes and updates.

I have also included an initial test build of Red Glass themed framework. This is black with Red accents that was ported from the Motorola Droid Red Glass them by Cuttalott. This is still a work in progress, and currently just has the framework ported. App mods still to come.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mattynealo:

Did you load the 20101008 Gapps with this; just let the backup script restore the Gapps; or load the 20100930 Gapps?

Apologies if someone else already asked this question but when I searched the large thread, I didn't see this question come up.

I love using Froyo for aesthetically it's pleasing and the performance of my phone while on the Froyo ROM is impressive.

However, occasionally my phone will freeze and when I'd restart my phone it'd loose the message that was sent during the time of freezing. However, I was on the September 27th version of the vanilla ROM. Has anybody had this issue? Is that issue rectified with the October 12th release? Or do I need to do something with my phone internally? I didn't flash the clock recovery for I didn't think at the time it would change anything, but should I have done that?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
Here are a couple screenshots of the Red Glass theme. Still just in the beginning stages, as only the framework images have been converted. None of the apps have been modified yet.

First off, I would like to thank the developers for this awsome system!

I have been using CM6 for a few months now, with great results!!

The past month of so, keep up on up on updates when they are released, I have noticed an extremely slowdown when using my GPS...

For example, when I open Google Navigation it can take upwards of 10 minutes for it to find my location, after that it works fine.

Is there a solution to this? I tried flashing, doing a full reset, clearing and starting over, with the same results.

Thanks!

i dont know if it has been mentioned..looked but not found anything about certain apps not in the market. i would think flash 10.1 and the beta for angry birds would be available since this is a 2.2 release, im sure there are other apps missing but thats what i noticed first....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] glen4cindy:
This is an A*W*E*S*O*M*E ROM, I really love it, but, I have been experiencing one issue that I cannot explain. The only difference I can see is that I'm running the Collin battery tweak, but, this issue affects me even when my battery is upwards of 80-85% so, I don't think the battery tweak is responsible, though I won't rule it out.

Every once in awhile, when I touch the red button to turn the screen on the use the phone, the screen is really dim. When I go into the settings, the slider is right where I have it set, just a bit up, not to far, but, just a bit, and when I just touch the slider, the screen brightness comes back up to where I want it. It may stay this way for awhile, and then all the sudden, this will happen again.

It's just a random occurance with no predictability and happens at various levels of battery charge, and after various times of sleep.

If I try to choose Automatic Brightness under settings, my screen is way too dim under all lighting conditions.

I am running the Extrmeme Blue, Oct. 4 build, and I did a complete wipe before installing, and the only other thing other than the Collin battery tweak I flashed was the regular Gapps. I have not flashed any other kernels or anything special.

Thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mattynealo:
I had the same issue with OCT4 BLack and Blue.. I don't know that i have seen it on OCT12. I am also running the Collin battery Tweak.

I get the dim screen thing occasionally, I am still running the sept 27 version. It's a tad annoying but I just press the red button and to turn the screen off then unlock it again. 9 times out of 10 it corrects the issue and it's only 2-3 seconds to do.

Planning on updating to the 10.12 version soon.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] twcrosno:
I believe this is because the default brightness is set to 45%. Mine does the samething. Press the menu button and go to settings, select display and if you have a check in automatic brightness it will allow the screen to dim. I unchecked mine and now I have no dimming when I unlock the phone and it stays bright. Hope this helps

[Hero CDMA Android Development] glen4cindy:
Well, that is strange. I have this box UNchecked. If I check it, the brightness goes WAY down ALL the time.

This is something that only happens randomly. It isn't every time I wake the phone, it might be once, twice, three or more times per day, but, it is very random.

Thanks for the tip.

I just left the Touch Diamond and WinMo, bought a Hero....hated Android 2.1 and wanted to kill myself...then flashed this ROM.....and have to say, this is the greatest day of my life. I can't believe how much smoother this OS flows now.

Still figuring out the world of Google....and how they went about building an OS.

Find it strange that you "flash" the gapps to install those programs on an existing ROM.

Is this the same process required for sapps? (Sprint apps) :)

I really want to have SprintTV
[Hero CDMA Android Development] glen4cindy:
I must admit, that part really stunned me too. Seems there are alot of things that you "flash" just like you do the ROM, like kernels, radios, and some other things I have run across. Seems the Recovery manager is smart enough to know what to do with whatever you are flashing to know how to handle it.

This is a very cool ROM. I'm not sure I want to try any more! I know I could always Nandroid back, but, this one is working so well, and I am so pleased with it. I'd love to take my Hero to a Sprint store and SHOW a Sprint employee how well Froyo CAN run on a Hero....but I won't. <wink>
[Hero CDMA Android Development] spearoid:
It was actually a Sprint Store employee that inspired me to find a way to get 2.2 on my phone.

She owns a Hero...and was telling me how she has grown to long for a new phone because her's drives her crazy.

I told her my desire to flash it....she didn't think that was bad.

I emailed her after doing it to tell her how much better it is and she asked for instructions on how to flash her's!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] caaznkid:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] caaznkid:
Yeah I think I know what you mean. Sometimes the screen is like...really dimmed down all the way to the max right? And then when you go back to the brightness settings and look at it. It comes back the brightness that you set it at? IDK why this happens either. It's nothing that's super bothersome though at least.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] spearoid:
So, searching provides indicators of varying levels of success.

Can someone tell me plainly if I should plan on not being able to use SprintTV or the Sprint Voicemail app?

I've installed a SprintTV app, but it did not work. Haven't seen the VM app to try yet.

But if we already know they won't work, I won't bother trying.

VM works, I just had a computer melt down so I don't have the apk but search and you can find it easily. You'll get 9016 texts whenever you get a VM, but if it is a problem you can download Super Private Conversation (SPC) from the market and blacklist that number. You still get the texts but they are moved to a different spot and you don't get the annoying text notifications from it.

No reason. Just operator error. I neglected to run "get-rommanager" before building. This doesn't get updated by the repo sync, and needs to be executed independently of the build process. I have done the update, and it the new version will be included in future builds. If you want to switch to the updated version, replace the existing RomManager.apk with the one attached. Thanks for the catch.
