what i had to do for the wireless tether is go to(on your computer) control panel, then wireless network connection and on the left it says "Set up a wireless network for home or office" click on that and set up and name ur wireless network the same name as the wireless tether on your phone in the settings of whatever app your using for it, finish and then refresh your network and then first connect on your phone then connect on your computer and that should work.... But for the wired tether that came with this ROM it should just automatically connect without doing anything to your computer(well for me any ways)

p.s. when you hit connect on your computer, on your phone a notification pops up and click on it and allow your phone to accept your comp.(if you have the security enabled on phone)...

i hope I explained everything right, and i hope this helps:o

Help

Can anyone please help me. I flashed the rom and everything was working fine. I used GScript to enable a2sd then used Rom Manager to partition my sd card. After it completed it's been boot looping ever since. It stops at the blue droid eye then restarts. Can anyone help me with getting a2sd working??? Please need help ASAP
[Hero CDMA Android Development] spookytay:
I've never done A2SD, but maybe you needed to partition your SD card before you installed the ROM
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fresh85:
any help is good help....I will try it out.

Thanks

HTC Notes

I just installed this rom a few hours ago and was surprised by its speed. However, one of the reasons I chose this rom was so that I could use the HTC notes widget. No rom has been able to run this for me. I installed the SprintHTCBloat_signed.zip file and it still won't work. Help?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
wow notes never had a problem before, I will check on this but I need to switch roms again. so I will do this sometime tonight
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
This rom is set to run A2SD automatically , so just make sure you are formated and reflash the rom should enable on install.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] falcon1009:
Htc Notes

Well, it says the widgets are installed but they won't get placed onto the home screens.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
so when you go in to add widget and click it it is failing it doesnt just show up on the screen.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] falcon1009:
I pull up the page where it says uninstall and details. I click it and nothing happens. I have also tried long pressing it and nothing happens as well.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bdizzel1982:
Try extracting just the apk from the zip file and manually install just the apk
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
on an empty home screen click the button on the bottom right this will bring up a menu go to the top one wigdets then clcik that this will give you a list of all widgets scroll till you find notes and click it this must be done on an empty screen as the widget takes the entire screen
[Hero CDMA Android Development] falcon1009:
Thanks for the help. I finally got it to work. I had to uninstall, and reinstall the apk not through the "get more widgets" menu
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
nfinite ran a2sd check shows no flag in zipalign my question is if I run the zipalign command then clearcache and reboot will this cause problems?

EDIT:nevermind i went ahead and ran the a2sd commands and bootlooped =FAIL

nandroiding now!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fresh85:
I did that and when I install a app my internal still reduces. And I did not get the extra 120 megs
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
I dont zipalign like that because google apps really dont like being zipaligned

well you wont gain an extra 120 megs you should of had 120- to 130 megs free after install and this will creep down slowly as you add apps even if they are on the sdcard due to decompression and caching +data produces by the app.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fresh85:
Ok well in that case I did it right because I had a total of 149 megs. Thanks

Would cleaning the cache regain those lost megs???
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
Yes it should
[Hero CDMA Android Development] marcusva79:
What megs are u talking about. Im using zen rom and mine only shows 52 megs avail in autokiller.

Alarm Clock Issues

Anyone have issues with the alarm clock. I can't really find out what's going on with mine, but I have 3 alarms set, 10 minutes apart. Basically the first one will go off, I can swipe down to turn it off.

When the second one goes off, several things may happen.

One instance: I grab the phone to turn the alarm off, but it just stops by itself and somehow the snooze gets enabled, I can tell because I can see the snooze message pop up. I'm not hitting any buttons or the screen for this to happen.

Second instance: I can swipe down and turn off the alarm, but the alarm continues to go off, the screen unlocks, then there is two buttons to snooze or turn off the alarm.

Just curious if anyone else has some similar problems with the alarm.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bkz_flyest:
Also.. Still want to know why my lockscreen pictures are always distorted.. :-/

The NFX one takes the whole screen.. But when I put my daughter's picture It looks compressed. :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
That may be because this is the lock screen from the desire ported to the hero,
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hough77:
Anyone on the YouTube reboot issue?

Sent from my HERo
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bkz_flyest:
Could the lockscreen be changed? I'm a newb.. sorry..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
I'd imagine that would be as simple as pulling out the stock HTCLockscreen apk from any other ROM or the stock ROM and pushing it to system/app/
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pyovue:
why does live wallpapers dont stick? i tried the add on launcher, also breaks. tried turning off weather animations, dont work also. everytime i set the wallpaper, and turn off the screen for like 5 secs, then turn back on, its back to normal wallpaper. any help would be nice.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] envioussob:
am i just stupid or can you not assign ringtones to contacts with this Rom? So far its been pretty smooth. I have only had one random reboot and got one force close from an incoming call. not sure if its really any improvement over ZenHero Lite, but ill give it a try.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tstack77:
Tried this, amazing.

Thanks for the write up!

[Hero CDMA Android Development] dhero1:
What Linpack and Quadrant scores are you seeing?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stricklerjosh:
Tried this, now I get a force close on estrong and can't open up the app again. Help?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] srb7215:
I am getting a force close everytime I recieve a phone call. Has anyone else had this problem? I reflashed the ROM and reflashed the three other files in correct order. I have not wiped the phone started from scratch yet and if no one has an answer I will do that tomorrow.

Any thoughts or ideas why this might be occuring?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
well just flash the roma nd nothing else then run that for a while and see how that works, you should need to flash anything else other then maybe a kernel upgrade.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] srb7215:
I reflashed the rom but no go. So unless anyone has another idea I guess I will wrote and reflash.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ahager88:
Perhaps your download is corrupted? Or the card itself even. Force closes shouldnt be happening like that on a fresh flash.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stricklerjosh:
I'm getting error code 67 that keeps coming up? How do I fix it?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pbp776:
For Data Connection?

Put the phone in Airplane mode for few minutes. Disabled Airplane mode. See if the data is working. If not disable mobile connection for few minutes and enable mobile connection. If this does not work reboot the phone.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] painandpleasure:
I had this problem also. I wiped and redownloaded rom incase the file I had was bad then reflashed now its working great
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
Hm. There is small bug with Estrongs sometimes in which it crashes if you multi-select too many things to delete at once. Delete EStrongs, install it again, and mount the filesystem as writeable over again, that should work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stricklerjosh:
Where is the system app folder?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
@_@ If you followed my guide, how do you not know where the system/app folder is? You have to first make sure Estrongs is running as root, then mount the filesystem (both of which are available in the Settings page of Estrongs), and then, within the filebrowser, you hit the backslash up in the upper left corner, you'll see the System folder, and then you open that, and you'll see the app folder.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] spookytay:
You got any apps installed you think might be causing the problem?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pzvv:
I'm struggling with this rom. terrible lockscreen lag, and overall sluggishness on the home pages and keyboards while typng. Plus 6hr battery life while mostly on sleep.

All I want is a kernel to flash for performance and a batt tweak that I can use without set cpu or the ocw.

Can someone please provide me with a link and proper instructions.

Ive been searching for them all day and I cant really find what I need. Plus search has been down for a while.

Seriously I need help...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
Flash the 691 kernel in the first page. Then, (you don't need to reboot before doing this, you can flash at the same time) flash this as well; http://code.google.com/p/zen-droid/...enKernel-HTC-08122010-noperflock.zip&can=2&q=

If you're interested, look a page or two back, you'll see my ultimate guide for optimizing the ROM. When I figure out how to do it, I'll cook all of my tweaks/optimizations into a custom ROM for you to use.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pzvv:
Thanks im getting it done now.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pzvv:
So one of these is a kernel and the other is a batt tweak? Everything went perfect so im gonna give it two minutes to get together after this boot.

Do I have to use an emulator to get it started?

Btw thanks.

EDIT: Zero lockscreen lag. CHECK!

Homescreen stability. CHECK!

I am now going to enable JIT and see how they fair.

Then the batt life later tomor.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
Glad it worked out for you :). No, I did not give you the battery tweak. Maybe it's just something else dumb I did, but the last time I flashed the most recent battery tweak, I lost my data connection completely. (Then again, I might have done something wrong that's not related to it), but still, I'm not going to recommend it till I figure out what happened.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chefthomas99:
I don't recommended Collins tweak or Jit - they've caused issues for me
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vreyes:
Thanks chick3nstrip, i will try the wireless method you explained.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] strayduck:
This is a quick question (probably for nfinitefx): finally got around to installing NFX hero update 1 in no less than two ways:

(1) flashed over my existing install to see I'd I could get away with it (I didn't)

(2) wiped and started from scratch

Finally got things stabilized and went into "about phone -> software" but it's still showing NFX HERO 2.2.1. Did "update 1" not get a revision number or did my install not take?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] laie1472:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
not i didnt set a rev # on this one as I ended up with the new update from sprint and well it just got put to theback burner and I forgot. So you are fine just no rev # adjustments.

Well everytime I have ran into a no boot issue it has ended up because every rom stores info on the sdcard and sometimes this will keep you from getting a good boot. So I would start by backing up your sdcard to computer then format it , copy over teh zip to the fresh sdcard and flash then after a successfull flash you can restore your photos adn ect... back
[Hero CDMA Android Development] someonenewhere:
are you planning on updating this rom with the newest sprint update??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
Yes but it has been fighting tooth and nail on applying the patches or taking the new apks in so it will get done just not as quick as I wanted. This is because this is a hybrid rom and its not liking all the added features
[Hero CDMA Android Development] someonenewhere:
I see...well I'm going to have wait till you release.... :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pzvv:
What kind of issues.

If you mean boot loops and spontaneous reboots. I now see why.

EDIT: Anyone might know why some of my nandroids aint working? I wanna go back to CM6 and i cant. Only this roms nandroids restore.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] laie1472:
Tried it no dice even tried with the wifes 2gb card freshly formatted this kinda bugs me still looking for suggestions lol Im really stuck with this one gonna try clockwork recovery next just wanted that to b a last resort so help would b greatly appreciated thanks

[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
I was having a similar problem a few days ago, and I don't think it's related to any particular rom you're working with ... I think it may related to whether or not you recently updated Busybox.

This is all conjecture, but I believe Amon_RA Recovery uses busybox, and if you update the version of Busybox that's installed in your phone then Recovery won't properly save nandroid backups after that, and you won't know it until you try to do a nandroid restore from one of those backups.

Something I found interesting ... the first time I ran into the problem, recovery gave me an error that said something like' "Error: Run 'nandroid-mobile.sh restore' from adb", or words very similar. So I plugged into my computer and ran the command, and it replied that the attempt had failed because the md5sum (checksum) for that nandroid backup file was bad.

You might try running an adb nandroid restore on your "bad" file from the command prompt like I did, and see if you get the same result.

In any case, I un-installed the Busybox updater app that I had recently been using, and then I re-flashed the Amon_RA 1.6.2 Recovery utility, and all has been good since then, but I still can't use any of the nandroid backups I'd made after updating Busybox. Had to just throw those away. :(

Hey will dark Envy 2.0 work with this rom?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] QuiQNeZZ:
ANYONE know what's up with friendstream with these ROMs? It all of a sudden stops working after a while and keeps force closing when trying to open. Had the same problem with Fresh a while back.

Don't know but it might be happening when an app gets updated. Does it work well will with aps2sd?

Alternate speech engines

Anyone been able to get any alternate speech engines to work with this rom? I am using the odexed version, have had to download the TTS Service Extended app in order have the option to choose a new default engine (for some reason this option doesn't appear in normal Text-to-Speech settings), have tried setting both Loquendo TTS Susan, and Svox Classic as default engine, made sure "Always use my settings" is checked, and nothing happens. Have checked in both Google Navigation and Handcent, but the standard default voice is still used. I don't know whether anyone has tried the Loquendo TTS, but the voice is so much better, even has infliction, sounds very realistic, I would highly recommend it. Now if I could only get it to work. Any suggestions??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] QuiQNeZZ:
Umm, says it only supports froyo or later.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skndeep102:
Yes it will I run it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rondietz1:
This is froyo, that's why I don't know what the problem is.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dhero1:
NFX 2.2.1 = Android 2.1, but not Android 2.2 (Froyo) ...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Yeah that

When I try to flash from my sdcard i get error message:

What am I doing wrong?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] QuiQNeZZ:
Did you download it from that first link? It was bad for me last night and I had to use the mirror link. If it was a quick download then it was a bad file, try the mirror.

I do not understand i know i dont have JIT on i do have overclocked on my phone. but today my phone has rebooted twice by itself. WTF. This never happened in the pass until recently.

I did take this dudes advice and did all the following. And now reboots. any suggestions
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stricklerjosh:
Ever since flashing dark envy 2.0 whenever my phone is asleep for a few minutes, when I cut it back on my 3g icon is gone and it takes a little bit for the mobile network to cut back on. Any ideas? I need to get my push gmail so this isn't cool if the mobile is somehow sleeping.

Thanks.

Can someone help me out? For some reason my mobile network keep going in and out...it will not stay connected. Not really sure what is going on.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] chefthomas99:
What radio are you on? have you tried switching in and out of airplane mode?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stricklerjosh:
Tried airplane mode...still cuts in and out.

In network settings it says Mobile Network type:

CDMA- 1xRTT is that right? Now it changed to EvDo Rev. A.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chefthomas99:
Try flashing a different radio.

How do I uninstall native apps that i don't want. And/or the ones that show up but don't have an option to uninstall?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] glen4cindy:
Please forgive me....how do I flash this?

I don't have hours to read 233 pages of posts....so please forgive me for asking a newbie question......

I followed the guide here on XDA to root my CDMA Hero, Regaw's method.

If I were to attempt to flash the ROM at post 1, which one do I use, and what is the process? I have a Nandroid backup that I made during the process of rooting, is that a sufficient nandroid backup?

I've never flashed Android devices before rooting my Hero, so I have no idea where to go with this. Sorry if these have been asked a dozen times in these 233 pages.....

Thank you
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
I would use titanium backup, download free from the market, select the app, and uninstall :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Reboot into recovery

Make another nandroid to be safe ;)

Make sure the zip of the rom is on the base of your sd card, not in any folder

Do a complete factory/data wipe

Flash the zip after the wipe by choosing a zip from recovery, and select the rom

Once flashed, reboot and you should be good to go!

Hope this helps, let me know if you need anything else :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] glen4cindy:
Wow...Quick reply...

So, Let me see if I understand this.

Plug the USB cable in, and open a CMD window...

1. adb push name_of_rom.zip /sdcard

2. reboot recovery

3. make nandroid backup

4. (is the factory/data wipe on the recovery menu?)

5. Flash zip from sdcard (I think this is also on the menu??)

6. Reboot (this is on the screen menu)

What is the difference between Doxed and Oxed?

And, one more, I am still using the 2GB card that came with my phone. Should I be upgrading to an 8GB or bigger before doing stuff like this?

Thanks for your patient help.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
No need to upgrade sd, and all of those are found under recovery... other than that, seems like you're good to go!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
You understand correctly.

And yes, you can perform the tasks above with a 2GB card, but you really should get a bigger card pretty soon, because each nandroid is 200 meg or more, and it doesn't take many of them to fill up a 2 gig card! ;)

Also keep in mind that if you don't keep at least 250 meg of free space on your card, you can't do a nandroid restore because there's not enough room on the card to extract the nandroid zip file.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kyhassen:
im new to this kinda, i been flash jumping left and right between CM6, and this one. but i am curious about JIT on this rom. would jit cause me to get force close constently, and restart phone even time i try to turn the screen on or receive a text message and hang up phone calls?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] glen4cindy:
Cool. Thanks for all the speedy help. I think I will upgrade my card.

One last question that hasn't been answered yet....

What is the difference between Doxed and Oxed?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Odex is a bit faster, but it's bad for theming. Deodex allows for themes, but startup times will be slower :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
Thanks impaler for helping, Just been lost in this damn froyo release.
