I've had my phone almost last 2 full days but it was me not using it and I had full service where I was at. My phone will only last around 20 hours normally though which is plenty for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] t12icky0:
First off im not using battery tweak or setCPU as for me it kills my battery alot faster then it does help it. Hck right now im sitting at 34 hours and still have 47%. here is what i do which is prolly why i dont use much battery.

I have 3g/wifi turned off at all times unless i need it(which is usually only about max 30 minutes a day). I dont use active sync, facebook, yahoo or any other background data that syncs(i.e. weather widget). I get/receive about 3-4 calls a day which last anywhere from 15-45 minutes. I dont use live wallpaper, task killer, or GPS unless i really need GPS. I get and receive about 25-50 texts a day and thats all. The reason most people are only getting that much battery is because they usually leave 3g on which kills battery fast if its searching for it. IM not doing anything special just what i stated.

Im running CM6-RC1(8-24 nightly) with #11 BFS kernel and only at 691.2

edit oh and i forgot to add i do play some games( homerun battle 3d, and Doodle jump around 1-2 hours a day also).

Im only getting lag when i have more then 10 running programs, try using a task manager or something that should do the trick, if that doesnt help try reflashing the rom after a titanium backup
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ewyllins:
Unfortunately when I pull down the notification bar I only have 2 options,

1-USB Connected Select to copy files to/from your computer

2- USB Debugging connected

When i choose option 1 nothing happens.

Do you have the Android sdk set up on your computer?

Sent from my HTC Hero running froyo: take that, Sprint!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonevil:
you hit the first option...then mount...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Its commonly because the battery is too low. Try connecting the charger and doing it again, shouldn't be a problem.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bravo1565:
I will check for sdk set up

My battery never got below 75%... it's been installing since 8:30 am and it's now 3:10pm plus it's been on the charger through out the day as well.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Sounds like you're not rooted since you don't have a recovery... I would try rooting/flashing recovery again
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jjprophet:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] mbellett:
I have had good luck with an app in the market called sd split. It mounts your sd to the pc while keeping it mounted on the phone, useful for quick transfers back and forth, its how I usually update roms
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
+1, I use sd split and it's a fantastic tool to have
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PrO...:
okay i can't deal with this any more...what's the best way to unroot?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mxl180:
I'm coming from Darchdriod 2.8.

here are my steps:

I did a titanium backup of my files.

Wipe.

Flash.

Restore using titanium backup.

Is this the way to go? I'm a noob.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
I recommend giving one of NFinite's ROMs a shot. I too got fed up with issues that I had with CM6, ranging from usability to performance. I'm currently using NFX-ROM, but I suggest you at least try Nfinite's stock ODEX Rom. It's still rooted but is essentially stock, and from what I know it runs extremely fast.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Rivas123:
It does even at stock. Meanin not oc'ed. Its a great ROM. Nfinite is a genius with his work with stock and sense.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PrO...:
it's not the rom because i've had the same issue with 3 different ones(starting with aosp mod)...if i unroot and it still doesn't work i'll bring it to the store to fix it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Download the official .7 RUU (found in this forum) and follow these instructions to apply the RUU and unroot.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
Agreed, the odex version is nice. I actually started to like stock Sense again because of it but just can't deal with not having a 'voice' keyboard. Impaler thought it wouldn't be possible because it's a 2.2 feature (not 2.1) but I don't think that's accurate because I've run the AOSP voice keyboard on ZenEXP which is 2.1, works great.

I'm back on CM6 until I get that figured out, I 'talk' at my phone much more than I type on it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mxl180:
i'm on cynogen black... and my clock is black on a black task bar? I can't see the clock
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Change clock color under settings, cyanogenmod settings, user interface :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] davec1234:
Then status bar tweaks.

having a lot of problems lately with CM6.

lots of reboot loops requiring a wipe and flash

also today i got a "UID mismatch" error after boot up which required an additional wipe and reflash
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonbtrini:
Have you tried the Vlingo app? Download from the Market. I did about 2 weeks ago, and haven't stopped using it since. Total voice control, for texts/emails, call people from your phonebook (it learns too the more you call the same people), do google searches, etc. And the keyboard itself is great too if you want to actually type.

hxxp://vlingo.com/apps/android
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dragonziggy:
sweet! thanks, I know I can just flash back tot he older one but I figured what's the point in doing it to begin with if someone already knows there is a problem.

I successfully flashed to CM6 during the early hours of this morning. the one problem I'm facing is that my phone doesn't vibrate when I get a text, how can I fix this?

Sent from my Froyo Sprint Hero. Eat it Sprint!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Vandelay007:
Go into your text app, choose settings and then notification settings....when you choose vibrate you can choose: always, never or only when on silent...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Vandelay007:
One reason would be that it would reinstall any apps yo purposely removed....but other than that, its mostly the same....I only flash newer ones if I am having a problem with them...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tbald14:
Gps

Any ideas on the gps not working?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Vandelay007:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Vandelay007:
You can do it with handcent
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
+1 to that, I use handcent for all messages anyways :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DanWalker:
i was afraid you would say that, I dislike handcent. damn someone should fix that lol.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Vandelay007:
Maybe chomp has that feature....

Idk because I don't use it but it may be worth checking out
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
I think it does... I think
[Hero CDMA Android Development] srthimsen:
It does. If you click compose, then the plus sign, you can select contacts in a list format.

Out of curiosity, has anyone been able to get rid of the annoying camera beep when taking pictures? Or is there a good camera option out there?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
I've actually wondered that too... I haven't found anything
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kingdazy:
apparently, if you are rooted (as we all are) you can get to some system folder, just delete the sound file... cant remember how I did it, was a few months ago...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Probably with root explorer... I'll check it out, and I'll probably make those changes to the apk in my theme :) Thanks man
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Vandelay007:
I've been searching around...there is a camera sound file but its not the same sound as when you take a picture
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kingdazy:
warning: i may be totally full of ****. i did this on some rom I was using a few months ago, had the same issue... hated the fuggin sound, asked some guy how to get rid of it, and thats what he directed me to do... it occours to me that the sound might be built into the apk? meh...

i'll search my post history, see if I can link to it...

hey guys, just out of curiosity, what radio and prl should we be on now? I'm getting terrible service lately.

Lol dude, you wipe before you flash

Yes I am using my Sprint Hero to upload this. Got a problem with it?!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xDragod:
I'm thinking of trying this rom, but before I do I'm looking for the most recent radio to flash... My phone is the only internet access I have, so it's a bit difficult... Anyone care to help me out?

whats the difference between this and the nightlies hosted on cyanogenmod? and the gapps?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Milyenair:
I'm wiping everytime and the update still doesn't work. I'm installing a different recovery image first, can u help me with that process?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Visionikz03:
radio is up to u... flash watever gives u better service in the areas u frequent most... prl should be 60668 currently. im using the verizon desire radio 2.32.40.11.09 and getting average -80 dbm signal which is very good... but try all of fresh's radios listed on geek4me.com and see wat gives u the best signal. if ur phone doesn't automatically update prls then search google for prl 60668 then install it manually (u will need ur msl code to access)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] duffkitty:
The laggy GPS seems to have crept back in for me... ouch
[Hero CDMA Android Development] t12icky0:
i REALLY LIKED THIS ROM alot! but one thing i didnt like was the camera and the album. i liked the stock HTCCamera and HTCAlbum much better. is there anyway i could install that besides the camera and gallery in this rom?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Visionikz03:
the nightlies were testing versions which were very close to daily roms anyhow... darch has now gotten *all* of the bugs worked out to where 99% of people pending they follow instructions on installing should have no deal breaking problems running this rom on a daily basis which wat the RC (release candidate is). If u do come across a bug post it here so darch can work on a fix. the gapps r all the google apps like syncing your contact info etc, that u can optionally flash to ur phone after flashing the rom.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Actually the newest prl is 60669

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jakejm79:
Actually I believe 60669 is the most recent.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] roadster92:
I assumed that you have android sdk installed.

1. Connect your phone to your PC through USB

2. Go to android sdk's tool folder

and do the following commands without the ":

"adb remount" ---> (you should see a message remount succeeded)

"adb shell" ---> (now you should see a # prompt)

"flash_image recovery /sdcard/RA-Darchstar.img"

When it's done, you should see a "#" prompt.

Then use the following command:

"reboot recovery"

That should boot your phone into the recovery menu. From there goto "wipe menu" and wipe the followings:

1. data

2. cache

3. dalvik cache

4. wipe ext (only if you have the EXT partition)

go back out to the menu and use the "flash" menu and look for the Cynogen RC1 that located on your SD card, choose it and flash, after done just go back out and reboot your phone

Just flashed the 817, looked in cyanogenmod settings and there is now sound settings

Any updates on the wake-up lag? I get a good 3-4 seconds after pushing a button before the screen comes on.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Milyenair:
Okay, taking another step back. I appreciate your patience. I rooted my phone with Universal Androot. It was quite simple. I have now unrooted it. I downloaded the SDK again and transferred it to my sdcard. Now, trying to go through the set up from the card I get a failed to fetch URL etc. and no packages to install.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] typeadam:
I think I messed something up.

I was using DC 2.08 prior to this and there was an A2SD option there where it would move all my apps to the SD card. I saw no option in this ROM but I did see "Allow Application Moving" in the App. Settings Menu under CyanogenMod settings. So like an idiot, I checked the box, rebooted the phone, and now all the apps I have installed are gone. I assume they've been moved to the SD card.

Am I to assume A2SD does not work on this? Or do I have to make sure 'Install Location' is set to "External" before I begin installing anything?

Is there a way to move them back or do I have to download and install everything agian?

Thanks!

(PS: of course I didn't do a Nandroid b/u - that would have been the smart thing to do............)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] andygu3:
I'm getting about 1 second on 817
[Hero CDMA Android Development] roadster92:
I am confused, everything that i listed must be done through a pc with the phone connected and i am assumed that ur phone is rooted and u were able to boot into your phone with the official Sprint Rom. Is my assumptiom correct?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mdsj:
Alright I am getting a good signal i think, -91dbm, but my prl is 60667. How do you update the prl? I searched but haven't seen how to do it

my phone wont send texts that are longer than one page. it says sending for a long time, then it just says "message not sent". I'm using the stock messaging app, and I don't wannna use handcent or chomp or anything. how do I fix it?

[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Unless you use handcent or chomp, there is no way to fix it ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stanltod:
The way I see it, only YOU can fix this problem. :D

Seriously though, I would really like to understand why anyone would want to use stock Messaging over Handcent (or Chomp which I haven't used but sounds comparable to HC). Same goes for stock browser (Opera, Dolphin, Steel, etc) and stock dialer (DialerOne, etc.) when there are much better alternatives available IMHO. The statements I really don't get are the "I hate product_x but I want all of the features of product_x" type comments. That's like saying "I hate Apple but I want an overpriced status symbol that consistently drops calls". Too many people want to eat their cake and have it too.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] srthimsen:
Thanks, found it and just saw your post. For others interested, it's in /system/media/audio/ui/, just use root explorer or android mate to delete it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
I could try, but I'd have to edit the app itself for the default to be that way :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] srthimsen:
Well, I thought it worked... I removed the file via android mate, but it came right back after restarting the camera app. I then attempted rm-ing it via adb shell, but got an error that said, "Can't remove: Read-only file system" when I attempted to remove it using 'rm /system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg'

fantastic rom, loaded it up on my wifes hero today. Rooting my Evo and a few others got me wanting to do hers. Its like a brand new phone, its so much faster than stock.

I must add, rooting her phone was a real ***** on a win7 machine, had so many problems trying to get the USB drivers to work. Finally said screw it and jumped on to a little XP laptop, went just fine after that. I'd recommend using XP if you got it! Save some time and headache!

[Hero CDMA Android Development] mxl180:
