Exchange issues after 21 Nov build

I recently flashed the 21 Nov build and flashed the email.apk only to find out that my phone wouldn't connect anymore. I nandroid restored back to my previous version and tried reflashing the 21 Nov build again... still no luck getting the email.apk fix to work.

Has anyone else had the same problem? I'm wondering if the days of not entering in a PIN to get into the phone are numbered...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
It's not bricked then :rolleyes: pull the battery, and then hold endcall and home, it takes you to recovery :D

Sent from my hero running froyo... take that Sprint!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xanadu1979:
Same here. This is the first build I've tried, so I don't know if it worked previously or not.

I'm trying the free trial of Touchdown and that seems to be working.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chriswiegman:
Yeah,

as indicated in my first post it won't go to recovery ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
What does it do when you do that? Because if it turns on at all, you're not bricked
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chriswiegman:
Pardon my nomenclature. It shows "HTC" and that is all. It won't go to recovery or anything else. Been like that for 2.5hrs on the most recent attempt to boot it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Ah ok...... try reflashing the recovery image then from adb
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chriswiegman:
I might add that throughout the attempted boot there was no heat-up or anything as is common with this phone whenever the CPU is utilized.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Ok, see my post above, let's go from there :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chriswiegman:
How do I do that if it won't go into anything?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Power your phone off

adb shell

flash_image recovery /where-it-is/name-of-recovery.img
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chriswiegman:
No can do. It can't connect.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
At all? So the computer doesn't recognize it, on or off?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chriswiegman:
Correct. I've tried it with my mac (where I usually do android work) and a pc.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Ok, can you boot into fastboot?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
I have to hold endcall and volume down to get to recover.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JohnnyStaff:
So do I, also when that happened to me after it would be on the HTC screen for awhile, I would adb shell then reboot recovery. That would work when I couldn't just do it on the phone
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david1023:
This has been happening to me since the 6.1.0 RC1 version. After flashing to the latest rom, it would freeze on the HTC screen. What you have to do is boot to recovery and do an "advanced nandroid recovery" and ONLY restore the boot files.

I would like to add that this happens to me even after a full system wipe. I don't know what it is but I would like to be able to boot into a clean Cyanogen Mod rom without having to recover the previous roms' boot backup.

Sense Clock

So how do I get the Sense clock like shown in one of the pics in the first post.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
You can't... sense apps only work of sense roms ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bradgordie:
I'm confused. Then why is it shown on the first post by the original poster? Is what is shown as a screenshot something else other than Sense?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
That looks like an app from the market, weather toggle widget :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] daveman2123:
try fancy widget looks the same, just no animation
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yup, or Beautiful widgets
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
Look in the market search for HTC hero there are some good ones that are better than the regular sense one. I use it on black mod Rom.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] brokenflipside:
Bluetooth Voice Dialer, but no BT device is connected.

When I press and hold the talk button I get the Bluetooth Voice Dialer, but no BT device is connected. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

I am on the latest black mod. Thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cordell12:
Yep, also on latest Blk mod here.

You can hold down the search button and it will let you pick a option like voice dialer or a few others :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] brokenflipside:
Unfortunately the search button doesn't work well as far as I know for calling contacts.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cordell12:
Hold down the search button, it will then prompt you on what you want to do, choose voice search, also check default action. When voice pops up speak "call Rick" or who ever, it will call them. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cordell12:
Anybody having issues with MMS? I am sending them every way I can and the recipient is not getting them. I am sending to a samsung intercept, also a android phone using handcent on both. SMS works fine just sending, the intercept also sends MMS just fine :confused:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] raiders91340:
Does that intercept receive mms fine?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cordell12:
It wasnt getting MMS from me, it could send MMS to me just fine though. I found this fix here in the cm6.1 thread, I did it and tried to send and it worked! :D Good thing too, we are sharing Thanksgiving Pics from Texas to California just fine now :)

Thanks

I like the User Name, Raider fan myself! :cool:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] raiders91340:
Good to know another raider nation citizen on board. Lol. I never had that mms issue, but after seeing that link to that fix, I'm wondering if its the same thing as the data restore method on the stock hero? When u dial ##data# and reset data profile? Can anyone let me know if that's what it is or not?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cordell12:
I was upset to see they started Gradkowski last week after Cambell stepped in and finally won us some games!

I have also noticed MMS doesnt seem to send when sending while WiFi is on, anyone else?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] raiders91340:
They didn't start him. Campbell was doing horrible and they put Bruce in at the end of 3rd qrt. He did provide a spark. By then it was 21-3. I am very anti Campbell right now. Ford was what won against kc. Our d is keeping us in close games.

The WiFi issue, I haven't gone through that neither. Have u tried wiping everything and re flashing the Rom? (it might come down to that)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cordell12:
I was under the impression they started Brad and he F'd up the game. I worked that day and living in Texas we dont get much Raider action on the am radio here, lol. I do got that NFL Mobile, just didnt keep up with any games sunday :( So is Campbell starting this week, I am pretty sure I read he was :confused:

As far as WiFi and sending, I watched the WiFi icon move to the left and 3G icon come up while sending a MMS with the WiFi on, it just took a minute as it used 3G. I am using a new clean install set up yesterday.

Help with Home Screen Ext Blue

Hi - I am new to the rooting arena, but am catching on fast. My question is, at the bottom of the home screen, there is a "bar" with three icons/buttons...Phone, All Apps, and Music. How can I change the music icon to something different, such as a clock icon, for example. The "bar" I am referring to is the one that has a trash can pop up to delete items. Thanks for your assistance!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] raiders91340:
The same way u drag an item to the desktop. Just drop it on that space. If u want two more icons down there, disable desktop dots and add add the secondary action buttons. (button ur referring to is called an action button) hopefully I read correctly and its what ur talkin about
[Hero CDMA Android Development] diva64:
Thanks.... I was thinking more into the problem than I needed too. I thought I had to first delete the one i didnt want, then add a new one.... Problem solved with your help. Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HotrodHG:
That is an old version of fancy widget, which you can find floating around somewhere in the hero forums(can't remember what post). There is a new version of it on the market and honestly I like it better then the old one.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cyanfrost:
I'm having trouble with keyboards. Swype and the HTC ime keyboard dont show up once I select them (long press > select keyboard). Anyone have any experience with this?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Silly question, but have you already checked the box on Settings => Language & Keyboard?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pwrmedia:
Settings<Language & Keyboard< (keyboard of choice, check the box next to it)

**EDIT** - Yeah, what he said (tquetano)!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chriswiegman:
If I've flashed blue can I flash vanilla without wiping?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cyanfrost:
yeah, the issue is that once i enable it (in the settings as well as the long press to select the new keyboard), it doesnt appear when I go to a text box. I have to switch back to the stock keyboard to have it pop up
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Quirkman:
I just flashed the rom which seems to be running great. My only issue is my notification light is solid amber all the time. Anyone know the fix for this?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sputnikk23:
whoa.. my battery drained by over 70% in just a few hours of the morning work day.. ouch..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Quirkman:
Nevermind after multiple reboots and a phone call it seemed to resolve itself.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] raiderep:
I am having this same issue. I think I saw a fix for this on another Rom here but I can't seem to find it again. The light seems to go out after a while but the USB notification is still in the status bar. Overall this is a nice port of Froyo and I really like the blue theme for it. The 360 degree rotation is a blast too! I think battery life is down a bit but its not so bad. Good stuff guys, thanx!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] omair2005:
can the latest update from the other thread/irc be flashed over this w/o wipe?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pwrmedia:
Yep. Flashed w/ no issues this morning in terms of compatibility.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
The fix for the amber light stick is ...

su

echo "0" > /sys/class/leds/amber/brightness

If you set up Terminal Emulator to run this command upon opening (its in TE's settings), then all you need to do is open TE and it will fix the LED stick issue. I've also had the USB notification stick, reboot is the only thing that seems to fix that.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] CrashV2010:
Led still stuck

I did the TE commands, went through but it didn't take....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sputnikk23:
anybody having trouble following youtube links? got a link to a users page and a channel page but youtube opens up with the grey loading box in the middle of the screen and the circle progress bar gone. doesn't do anything. I can go search for the exact same item and browse to it though.

tested the links on my pc and they work fine... so its not that.

Edit: going to the www url straight in the browser redirects to m.youtube.com and produces the same effect (ie: http://www.youtube.com/user/allaboutbikes )

I also downloaded camera magic; works as a substitute to the camera app.

However, two camcorder apps I tried (qik and anCorder) didn't work. Anybody else get a camcorder to work?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Hmm ... mine had no problem. On the CM6 site it says this command:

su

echo "2" > /sys/class/leds/amber/brightness

I tried that, and it didn't fix it so I changed it back to "0" (which was the fix way back with Test 4, they changed it). Maybe trying that current command instead will work?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] raiderep:
Thanx for the tip but I found the latest battery fix and flashed it and it seems to have fixed this too.

Just wanted to add that I came from a moment and am stoked to have froyo on my new hero and no lockups anymore...this is a cool little phone.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] CrashV2010:
You are going to kill me !!!!

Now I don't have facebook anywhere, can't even download it from market...Plus here is the kicker... My internet is not working but I have everything else working.. Market, google contacts.....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] CrashV2010:
When I get online, the page it self will load half way and kick it's self off the browser.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] CrashV2010:
When I get online, the page it self will load half way and kick it's self off the browser.

But I do have the Led issue resolved, thank you.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] muppetman462:
This rom is SMOKING!!! I guess it's dumb luck, but everything seems to be working for me. I installed it this morning, and wow that's all I can say.

Great Job!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Actually that's weather and toggle widget on the market.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
I dunno about that. Sure looks like the original Fancy Widget (with a clear background applied) to me ..........
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Look at the weather. It's different, I've used both, and the cloud style is not FW :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chriswiegman:
Turned out the home button is physically failing which prevented me from booting into recovery. As for connecting to the computer, still no explanation for that. I was able to get it into recovery eventually to reflash and it works now
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Newklearx3:
when flashing the update should i wipe anything? I don't want to loose anything.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rickyq12:
No need to wipe for update. You should be fine.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Newklearx3:
Jw. It's already done. I flashed blackmod over vanilla.

sent from my pimp hero running Froyo CM6 and the XDA app

Seems like the email program could use some optimization. While connecting to my corporate email it seems to take forever to pull in the text of the email. Also seems to eat up alot of battery while checking my work email.

Updates Posted - 28NOV

Synced with CyanogenMod github on November 28 around 6PM Eastern.

This should work with no wipe over previous versions. Flash GAPPS after the ROM if you use them. The Vanilla build is very close to the Nightly build for the corresponding date. Only a few differences between the two. Extremely Blue has all the themed interface for Android and native Android apps. BlackMod has Gomorrah's framework mods integrated, and RedGlass and PurpleGlass continues the porting from Cuttalott's theme.

This release includes updates to lockscreen sliders (like choose app to launch for messaging); lockscreen gestures; ADW version 1.3.1; camera/camcorder updates; along with a number of other improvements and bug fixes since 21 November. It includes both the 2D Gallery and Gallery3D. Camera has been reverted to the original source and Gallery has cherry-picked an update that adds review intents, so either Gallery or Gallery 3D can be selected from the Camera thumbnail.

Kernel updated to include 25-November commits from Decad3nce's kernel github with updates to the smartass governor; tweak to deadline schedule, and so on. Check his htc-kernel-heroc github for more details.

ROM also includes updated akmd/compass to reduce excessive CPU consumption resulting in battery drain, freezing, etc.

Colored icons added to settings menu for Black, Red, and Purple. If you want colored settings in Vanilla, replace Settings.apk with the one from Black. Conversely, if you want black/gray icons in Black, replace Settings.apk with the one from Vanilla.

Check CMSRC Twitter or CyanogenMod Code Review for CM6 Changes since previous version.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] diesel joe:
Can't wait to flash this. Is Smartass the default scheduler or do we still enable it with the battery tweak?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
Default is interactive. Use battery-tweak to adjust as needed.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] diesel joe:
Is anyone else having problems with the download link?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] blakeatl:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] blakeatl:

cant receive sms

hey, i just updated to the Nov 21 version and everything is going very smooth, except i cant receive text messages. I've looked through all of the settings on messages and Handscent sms. Is anyone else having this problem? Thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] blakeatl:
I'm having trouble flashing over Nov 21 rom. Phone just sits at the htc screen. I just did a titanium backup so I'm gonna try a fresh install. (I was wondering maybe the download was the problem. I'll update after a clean install.)

Update: Still a no go. Going back to my Nov 18 backup.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Flash over last build went fine here. Always sits at HTC screen for a few minutes for me. Usually happens when I wipe cache + davlik (which I like to do before flashing one rom over another).

How long did you wait?

Either way, probably best to do a full wipe and install. I'd suggest going into the partition menu on clockworkmod and wiping boot and system as well.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dgatlin:
When I did the nov28...I lost 2 ab...

Thanks...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dgatlin:
Nevermind...found it...

Thanks..

I am really enjoying the Red Glass Mod, keep up the good work. Thanks for all your hard work Jaybob!!!

Is anyone else having trouble with the mediafire link for vanilla?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xanadu1979:
Does anyone know if the issue with connecting to Exchange 2010 SP1 servers is fixed yet? That's really a deal-breaker for me. It was broken in the Nov. 21 build but I read that Google has fixed it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mattynealo:
I just updated to EXT_BLUE NOV 28th. The lock screen messaging button is green and does not work. I am not sure if this is because i use handcent or not it worked in the NOV 21 build.

Thanks,

Matt
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pwachleman:
There have been some changes to that lockscreen button and you have to actually go into settings and chose what program links to that button, so you could go in under cyanogenmod settings/input settings/messaging tab application and you could chose for it to pull up handcent or whatever program you wanted to use for that lockscreen button. Pretty nice change if you ask me!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
Green is the stock color for ic_jog_dial_messaging.png in the framework. I will color and add this file to the overlay for the next build.

To set the lock screen messaging button to launch Handcent, go to menu > Settings > CyanogenMod settings > Input settings > Messaging tab application and select applications, then Handcent.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] raz699:
Edit.... Set manually, rebooted and switched back to network and its fixed. Crisis averted.

I upgraded to the newest black mod and now my date says the 22nd today. I verified it is set to network. Is this a rom thing, sprint thing or is my phone about to self destruct?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mattynealo:
Thanks Jaybob. I like the ability to be able to choose what action. Thanks for all the work
[Hero CDMA Android Development] raman_arora:
loved red glass mod .. upgrated to 28th nov and its working perfectly...

thanks for your efforts...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] blakeatl:
I finally got Nov 28th to flash. Problem had to do with Firerat's mtd hack. I had my mtd partition set to 102 3 and last I checked I had ample room for a flash so I never went back to look at the system space. Long story short, I changed my settings to 110 3 and flashed over my Nov 21 nandroid with success. Dang system space used is 102.2....smdh.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] papeseed24:
is anyone else having problems with text messaging? I can send them fine but my phone cant receive any. Suggestions?

(I recently updated to the Nov 21 and Nov 28)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] whoopingchow:
Everything was running fine until LauncherPro decided to crash...restarting didn't work, had to restore a nandroid to get everything back. This is the second time this has happened. The first time was running the 11/2 blackmod, the second time was with the 11/14 mod. Anyone else having this issue?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] c00ller:
I'm currently running CM6.1-RC1 (10-28). I'm thinking about trying out the latest Vanilla build in the OP. Few questions:

1) Can I flash over without wiping?

2) Does Vanilla have the option to have a black statusbar like the CM6.1-RC1 "theme, "STOCK_Black"? I'd like to keep my black statusbar, but that's it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] raz699:
Reverting back 1 week again, anyone else having this problem?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rdbox37:
I had that problem. I wiped and flashed fresh rom 1.1. Then nandroided back to Nov16 restore.

Cant explain but it worked for me.

Whats the best compcache setting?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Recently d/l Extreme Blue to compare with Impaled Blue. Love the lockscreen sliders for messaging and phone. For a number of reasons, I use Dialer One as my default phone app. Is there a way to set the phone lockscreen slider to Dialer One, or have it use the chosen default phone app?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
I'm using Vanilla 11/28 along with Dialer One and the phone lockscreen opens up to Dialer One instead of stock.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sportsplayer5959:
Is anyone having a problem with ADW launcher being laggy in this ROM or is it just always laggy?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] prescot123:
I've been using this rom for long time now, and it's getting better and better, but I'm not able to use the email widget since the NOV21. After configure my POP3 acc., it just show a little square with "Problem loading widget" inside. I know this i a very minor issue, but it will be nice to have my email widget back :)

I'm using Vanilla NOV28
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ahager88:
What is your CPU clocked to? Governor? Use autokiller?

Its never laggy for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] broncobuddha:
After updating to vanilla 11/28, the messaging lockscreen no longer works. The other three work fine.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dburg84:
I have the same problem with blackmod.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pwachleman:
You have to go into cyanogenmod setting and pick the program you want to associate with that lockscreen slider...cyanogenmod settings/input settings/messaging tab application. So you can pick what program you want to put on that button.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
OK, uninstalled and reinstalled Dialer One. Enabled lockscreen and the first time using the phone slider I am asked to select the default phone application. Chose Dialer One and all is good. Thx.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] broncobuddha:
That was it! Must of forgotten that step.

Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dpeeps74:
Installed the 1128 blackmod clean last night. Liking the lockscreen gestures a lot. Got scared when I made unlock a vertical gesture, but finally got it unlocked. Guess I should have read the note they put in before I did that. Everything is great tho. Did change the theme some. Uot with uni color icons, over stock black over blackmod. Just can't stand the colored icons and notification dropdown had a grey background for weatherbug. Now, everything looks nice to me tho.
