Hey guys :)

I'm currently using an older version of RA-hero. How do I upgrade to the new version (v1.7.0.1)?

ADB for some reason won't work properly with my laptop, is there an alternative way to upgrade my recovery rom?

Thanks,

Alex

edit: oops my bad, I thought I was posting under Q&A. Sorry!

Have a look at BTDAGs guide linked in my signature, there should be step by step instructions using Terminal Emulator, failing that you can also try Flashrec but that doesn't work on all roms for some reason.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] alexluckett:
I've already got that :)! Do I just flash it like I would do with a ROM? Or is there some other process?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] ddotpatel:
... Oh, too late, the update.zip method posted above will be the easiest route to go.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] ddotpatel:
Yep, just like a ROM.

No need to do any wipes though.

So i tried to flash a rom like a normally do and i get stuck on the green screen.

I noticed now when flashing a rom is takes alot longer to flash then it usually did , i wiped pulled battery multiple times and still the same results. If i try to flash a froyo rom it will stay on the mytouch screen for a few secs and reboot to recovery mode on its own. every other rom just gets stuck and will not move. im limited to only recovery mode and Fastboot , are their any simple fixes that can be done and thanks in advance.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fonix232:
Recently I was getting a kinda weird effect. My compass now always directs to the bottom of the phone/screen, except when it is in open state. I think I have magnetized some parts somehow, and it is kinda disturbing when I want to use Layar or anything else what uses the built-in magnetometer.

Is there any way to fix this?

Theoretically putting the device into a simple depolarized magnetic field would solve the problem, but I don't know if it will damage the phone itself or not.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
There are no magnetic components in the phone.

That means that it can't be magnetized.

I'm sorry to say that your magnetic field sensor itself is shot.

Note that putting the thing into a demagnetizer, if the sensor wasn't already dead, would DEFINITELY destroy it.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrsWoodfork:
How do I demagnetize my cell phone screen
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bobsmathkins:
Actually phones have a magnet for the compass function and apps such as google maps to show which direction you are facing. Also, if you put your phone near magnets a lot it might magnetize metal parts in the phone messing up the compass. Demagnetized get your phone would demagnetize both the unintentional magnets and the magnetic compass. Please don't do that.

[Hero CDMA General] h3nG:
I have a stock HTC hero phone that constantly reboots. This occurred after it ran out of battery. I recharged it and turned it on, and it just constantly reboots after seeing the HTC hero / Sprint logo.

I took it to the Sprint store and the guy claims the phone has water damage so he won't fix it or replace it. It has never been exposed to water for all I know.

I figure the problem could be software issue...Is it possible to reinstall everything?

Update:

Sorry about the premature posting. Spent an hour looking for it and couldn't find it, but i was able to find instructions on how to do the hard reset. I tried the Hard Reset method and it seems to be working for now...

[Hero CDMA General] chromiumleaf:
Try re-running the official RUU via your PC. See this thread to download it (scroll down to post #2 for the RUU): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=694572

Don't worry about following all those rooting steps in the first long post #1. Just scroll down to post #2 and download the .5 RUU file, then run it from your PC with the phone plugged into USB.

It will completely wipe/erase the phone and revert it back to factory stock settings, just like if it were fresh out of the box. (Make sure you back up your contacts and other important information on it before doing this.)

EDIT: Posted this right before you edited yours....hope things work out. Hard reset is basically the same as what I described above.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Matt4542:
Epic Unleashed 1.1! First DROID2 rom!

For all the bugs people reported, I thank you. This release should fix a bunch of those bugs!

UPDATE:If you are having problems follow the new instructions on how to install bellow.

Changelog:

MAJOR Bug fixes.

Screen turns off.

Keyboard works.

Wifi may work(untested)

Accelerometer works.

Missing anything...?

Thanks:

Thank you Brendan for testing this release for me while my phone takes a little "nap" lol.

Features:

Deodexed

Bloatware removed

Scripts

Build.prop mods

Not sure if everyone know's this, but all my releases come with a widget that looks just like the HTC Clock called Fancy Widgets.

Please report bugs to me as you find them. Best way to contact me is email me at matt4542@gmail.com or my GTalk Matt4542.

How to install:Important!

You will need to download Koush's bootstrap application and bootstrap your recovery. Then you can boot into recovery via the same app or you can install via ROM Manager(by rebooting into recovery, not via install rom from sdcard). Once you boot into recovery do a FULL nandroid backup and then you go to mounts and storage and mount /system manually to avoid more issues. Install zip from sdcard and toggle signature verification to disable. Now you can install the zip from the sdcard. Once this is done, reboot.

Now after reading all that here is your download!

Download <--- Click Me :P

For the best support please join my IRC chat on Freenode. #epicrom

Thanks for using Epic the first DROID 2 rom! Say thanks if you like it :)

I am trying to buy a domain name to host my files. All I need is $15 dollars. You do not have to do this if you do not want to. It is just to help me out a little bit :) Please donate as little as $1 to my PayPal matt4542@gmail.com. Thanks if you do!

I have v1.0 installed now. When I go into bootstrap and try to install 1.1 my phone still reads rom v1.0...?
[Droid 2 Android Development] pulptastic:
Same for me, I came from stock and it appears I am still stock (no weather widget, etc). I notice I did not move the .zip from my /downloads/ to the base sd card, I will try that when I have some time.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Matt4542:
I am working on the issue now.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Matt4542:

[Droid 2 Android Development] pulptastic:
Thank you for the quick response. I am very excited about roms on the d2! I will play around with it some more after dinner.
[Droid 2 Android Development] RCourtade:
I came from stock and it appears I am still stock (no weather widget, etc). Nothing has changed.
[Droid 2 Android Development] trillside:
Maybe you can put the launcher2.apk for 2.2 as the main homescreen. I downloaded it from the droid incredible forum on my phone and everything is working alot snappier on my end. Still using stock just looking and waiting until everything is figured on this rom.

Later....
[Droid 2 Android Development] Matt4542:
As a test for now just try to install your recovery from ROM Manager and boot into recovery that way. It is untested but it is worth a shot.
[Droid 2 Android Development] Matt4542:
Actually all of the bugs have been ironed out. It is a problem with the recovery. It may affect you, may not. I would put the stock Froyo launcher but I am not going to risk screwing with blur and causing more problems now. I will do it in a later release.
[Droid 2 Android Development] th3drow:
ya i installed it, but i did it from my downloads folder, it took like 3 seconds and nothing is new lol, i will have to try from the root i guess.

[Droid 2 Android Development] JKASS5:
for those having problems installing epic 1.1 try going to mounts and storage in clockworkmod recovery and select -mount /system before installing update.zip. worked for me may work for u idk. it now shows epic under android version instead of 2.2...

Yup. It does work. Thank you to you sir, and thank you to Matt for walking me through the updating process. I have updated the tutorial to reflect the changes.

[Droid 2 Android Development] darkonion:
When you are using the music app, and you lock you phone, when you start it up again, there are controls on the lock screen. The controls work, but the song information is messed up.
[Droid 2 Android Development] trillside:
Gave in and gave it a shot everything feels alot better! Keep up the work man!

EDIT: I use launcher2.apk for my homescreen and its the best home I've used so far. No lag for me and real nice if you want a more stock feel. Just my little 2 cents...

Well phone was working spot on before but now when i plug my phone into my computer the external sd storage does not come up so i can't move things direct to the external sd card from my computer. but the phone knows it there cause its in "my files" application and its where my music is stored and it plays the music fine. but the external sd card doesn't come up as a directory in kies or normal windows file organiser.. its really strange. any ideas apart from a flash? it was working but then i installed that stop media scanner thing (deleted it now after restarting the media scanning) but since then this has happened. I mean its now the end of the world since the phone sees it and can use it and i can transfer from my phone to my sd card but its just weird that it no longer comes up when connected to pc.

Hello ...

Im useing OD 4.4 since a few Days ... today i wanted to install a syncml client but there is only the google accountfor my contacts which is syncing. Where is the Phone Adressbook ... ? Creating a new Account ... Exchange and google ... but i need the offline phone adressbook ... Anyone out there who can help me?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nzdcoy:
first, google address books can be used offline. it periodically syncs (updating both the server and the phone), leaving a copy on the server and a copy on the phone.

second, because the contacts are on the phone, there is no need for an 'account' on the phone, accounts are used to sync information.

why can't you use a google account for your contacts?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] philJ:
Problem solved ... i thought that there was a hidden account - the sygic navi shows all contacts twice. Funambol Sync makes a second group with all contacts ... google contacts on the web shows the numbers of contacts in each group so i recognized the problem with the second group.

I want to sync my Android with egroupware over syncml. Is there any free WORKING client out there? Funambol only shows the "checking" Message and nothing was synced.

is it possible to install multiple versions of one app, such as the different versions of the touchwiz launcher, without having it overwrite the previous install?

If the different versions share different package name (like com.android.Launcher and com.android.Launcher2) then yes it is possible. All the released TouchWiz launchers are sharing the same package name, so the last one you install will be the one you get.
