Anyway to use the old dialer from my 2.1 .

I hate the fact I cannot search for a contact through my dialer, or am I missing a setting?

From the market search Dialer One. Install and use this dialer. The searching works somewhat like sense does :)

I am curious about everyones Quadrant Scores. When I first installed cm6 I was pulling close to 500 :D I have my phone the way I like it and it has been doing good for a good week or so :) I decided to run a Quadrant test and I dropped to 430 :( I was wondering why a fresh install is so high and after a few days it drops so low? What is everyone else running for scores, did they drop or stay the same over time?

Thanks :)

more on the MMS issue

Hi, thanks for creating this Q/A thread. I have tried both the adb fix and the froyo flash fix and still nothing, any other ideas? :confused:
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cordell12:
I nandroided my extremely blue and installed AOSP's rom, I get a high 470s low 480s on quadrant score. This is with all my apps installed, and they are not on SD, just on internal storage. Will this score fade away like it did for me on cm6? And really, we are talking about a differance in about 50 points in quadrant scores between roms. Is 50 points a major improvement like standard def TV to HDTV, or is it something you really cant see, like 1080P vrs. 1080I ???

Thanks for comments :)

Missing apps

I am running CM6 Nightly #98

I tried a wipe and a fresh install and I still can't see some apps:mad:. I tried 3 different versions of GAPPS and all had the same result. Here are some of the apps that I know aren't in my market:

The Weather Channel

Groupon

Shazam

Wells Fargo

Locale

(to name a few)

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.:D:D:D

CM6 Nightly (10212010)

d3cadence CFS with customized battery tweak

No, HTC apps will unfortunately not work on AOSP roms such as CM6 :)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
I think this is just a market issue... can you search for the apps, but still get nothing?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
Dialer one will do that
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
50 points is like 720p to 1080i... not huge, but a slight performance, especially with some finer details :)

I would try nandroiding, flashing a sense rom, receiving/sending a few mms, and then nandroiding back... this works in some cases

I'm using the most recent stable cfs kernel. I like setCPU, all you do is install it, it'll ask you to set your device or something like that, or you can hit menu>device selection. Click "Autodetect speeds" and then "Ok". I have the uncapped kernel, since my phone can run a little faster than 691 but not at the full speeds, and the top slider bar that says Max I have set to 710400 and the bottom bar Min is set to 245760 (all the way to the left). My scaling (the dropdown menu below that) is set to interactive. That's all you have to do, you don't need to mess with profiles or anything. If you try those settings and they work well, you can click "set on boot".

So I ran quadrant on both roms, aosp and cm6. The CPU test is the issue. With soap the 12 tests go so much faster than cm6, I tried with both OC apps, setcpu and oc widget and got same results. What could be causing this? I also tried extremely blue rom that has latest kernel. I know my scores with cm6 used to be in the high 470s with my best at 501. U want that back!

Just a quick one. Switched to the black theme, just wondered about different icons for the notification bar. Specifically for the messaging, I like the contrast of everything else, but there's too little white in the messaging app icon. Maybe just an alternative icon?

Cannot view Google Docs - Spreadsheet content

I rooted my Hero, put ClockWorkMod and then CM6.

Problem

: I cannot view Google Docs - Spreadsheet content with the stock browser. I tried a few spreadsheets - for a few I could not view content, at all and for a few spreadsheets, with lot of rows, I could see the content, after scrolling down. The spreadsheet (for which I could view the content) displays a few blank rows at the top, which are not visible when viewing the spreadsheet from my computers browser. The content seems to be displaced.

I can view documents, haven't tried other types of documents.

I tried clearing the browser's cache, nothing changed.

So, to isolate the problem, I installed Opera mini and I can view the spreadsheets fine in Opera.

Any help, is much appreciated.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
May be a default browser limitation? Not 100% sure, as I never use google docs on my phone.

Darch recommends using 1.7 with any of his ROM's including his CM6 build

If you're not having any problems, you don't need to switch

If you start to have problems eventually, switch to 1.7

Trial and error pretty much...I'm using the 2.32 radio since that gives me the best reception

Just go to geekfor.me and look under Hero radios and just try out the different radios

Be careful...I take no responsibility if something happens to your phone...
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Namtaru:
Not sure there is much i can do about this but i'll ask anyways.

When I receive emails through my Exchange account, it properly notifies me in the notification area, but a lot of times i will hit "Clear" instead of clicking on the notification to read the email because i'm in front of my computer using outlook.

When I do this, if I go into emails on my phone it shows that i have no unread emails (because i already read it in Outlook), but the next time I get an email, the notifications says i now have 2 unread messages. The counter will keep going up until i actually click on the notification then it seems to reset to 0.

I was running the Fresh rom for awhile and it did not do this.

It's more an annoyance than anything so i'm not too concerned about it, especially since cyanogen is by far my favorite rom of the ones i tested.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
It's a trail by error thing unfortunately :(

How would anything bad happen from flashing a radio? Couldnt I always just re-flash? Sorry, I'm new-ish to all this lol.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
That's correct, just flash the radios like a rom from recovery. The only way to hurt your phone is to flash a non-sprint CDMA hero radio. See here for a list of safe and flashable radios to play around with. Let me know how it goes or if you have any more questions :)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HEROEVO:
As long as you flash a radio from geekfor.me under Hero radios, nothing bad will happen.

It's when you don't look what you're flashing that you could brick your phone. Just make sure it is a Hero CDMA radio and you'll be fine

Flipz also has a guide to flashing a new radio on his site, if you're not sure of yourself, follow the guide and you'll be fine
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
You really don't need a guide. All you do is flash the radio just like any rom and allow it to load.
