impaler, what task killer do you recommend. and how exactly do you get to what you are telling me. i have been trying to read bout it.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
Download auto killer from the market. Set it to extreme, and it may actually do it for you. If it doesn't, go into the processes tab and kill Android accor manually. I'd post a link, but I won't be on a computer today.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Namtaru:
Have we figured out a god way to completely block the voicemail texts from 9016 yet?

I set up Handcent to blacklist them but all that does is not show them when in Handcent, I still get the notifications from 9016. And I disabled all notifications from the stock mms app.

Other than that the only other thing that's bugging me is i keep randomly getting notifications that i have a new voicemail. I'm aware of the one we get on boot, but the random ones throughout the day are a tad annoying.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
For the messages, try blacklisting the number through the cyanogen settings. Go to settings, call settings, and scroll down all the way to the bottom where it says blacklist, and enter in the number. As for the random voicemail notifications, try dialing *38. I don't know if this will fix it, as I never had this problem, but the *38 is used to configure the voicemail, so you might as well try it out and let me know :D Hope this helps, let me know if you need anything else!

So I'm in a bit of a pickle.

I tried to flashed the battery meter mod and it didn't work. Got tons of force close errors and it ****ed my phone up. Couldn't do nandroid through recovery so I did it manually. It seemed to work but the phone is still sitting on the htc screen and it has been 15 minutes. I went back and tried recovery again and it did it through the phone this time. It is still sitting there on the htc screen. :confused:

I have the newest uncapped kernal and cm6. Anyone know of how I can fix this without having to wipe the phone back to factory? Really don't want to have to do that.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
Just flash the kernel on top of itself, no wipe. Once you establish that it works, you'll need to re-flash the uncapped kernel. This should fix it though, let me know how it goes!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dtom2444:
I'm currently running the 2.1 Fresh ROM on my Hero and would LOVE to run a better, faster one, maybe even step up to 2.2? :D But I've trying to read all about the newest stuff and get lost between all the mods and roms and radios and kernels...so my question:

Is there any place for someone "starting from scratch" to see a recommended (ie. stable yet feature-rich) list of all the kernels, mods, radios, etc one could/should use? I see you have links in your sig impaler, but I'm still not sure which to use, or how to successfully flash them.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
I would start here: this is the newest and stable CM 6.0.0, along with the gapps. To flash, boot into recovery by powering your phone off, and then holding end call and home to boot into recovery. Make a nandroid backup, do a complete factory/data wipe, and then flash the CM 6.0.0 zip and the gapps in succession. This should get you started on CM6, feel free to ask me anything else you might have questions about. And once you start getting more used to CM6, we can worry about the kernels and such :D
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dtom2444:
Great, thanks! One quick question, after flashing CM6 and the gapps, is there known functionality that does not work (GPS, on-screen keyboard, dropped calls)? Coming from a different rom, I assume the answer is problems arise on a phone-by-phone basis. On my current ROM, Fresh, the on-screen keyboard CONSTANTLY freezes up. Just wondering.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
Nope! Everything should work except that the gallery pictures will distort if rotated. But that's such a minor and non-everyday type of bug that it's really not all that cumbersome.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dtom2444:
Ok, I'm about to flash the CM6 ROM, but the gapps, Google Addon, link is not working. Got an updated link?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
Hmm, I don't of a mirror, and unfortunately I don't have a website to host it on :( That link worked for me, maybe it's just down for the night as I think darch was having some network issues.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dtom2444:
So should I wait to flash the rom until I cant download the gapps or can this be done later? Sorry, I'm just really anxious to get this started! :D
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
No problem, I understand :) You can flash the rom now and the gapps later, as long as you're fine living a few hours without a market, gmail, etc.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azr6:
Reflashed the uncapped kernal and the phone booted up. Thank you mucho!

How did you know it was the kernal that caused this?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
Well I knew that by reapplying the rom and the kernel it would reset all modified framework, which should allow you to overcome anything visual you did to your phone. And no problem, glad that I could help :D
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azr6:
Glad that I know this for next time. I really wish I could get this damn battery mod working on this rom without any issues. :mad:
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shawn328:
I have flashed recovery .That was the first thing I did. It loads to the point where the widgets load but then it reboots. I have manual boot into recovery wipe and reflash cm6.

I can't get google voice to work with the newest stable. Anyone have any advice? I've tried adjusting things in call settings, in google voice settings, and also on the desktop side of things. De-activated, then reactivated voicemail options through google.com/voice and still nothing.

Whenever people call and i let it go to voicemail it says "Call could not be completed" "BEEP".

Anyone have any advice?

Voicemail question....

I just flashed the new Cyanogenmod on my Sprint Hero and I completely love it. The only problem I have ran into is last night I missed a call and they left a voice mail. I received a text saying that I have a voice mail and it had a weird phone number in the text so I called it and it gave me two options that I don't remember. I was hoping I would have a voice mail app but cant seem to find anything similar. Any help would be appreciated and I thank you all for your hard and wonderful work!!

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stanltod:
I may be wrong but I always thought that it was the customization from the phone makers...like HTC Sense, etc. that is severely hampering android os updates from getting released by the carriers. The few things, like that accel calibrator, that are missing from ROMS like cm6 and kernels like BF11 far outweigh any benefits that I got from sense. I can't think of anything I used that I haven't been able to replace with readily available apps, certainly nothing that would make Sense 2.1 worth considering over cm6 AOSP 2.2 for me.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stanltod:
Great idea on putting this together imp. Also, great use of your signature as mini FAQ.

Has a fix ever been found for the gallery skewing pictures when you rotate the phone? I've read nearly every page of the forums and I've seen the problem mentioned but never a solution. That is about the only problem my Hero has now that the random and frequent reboots seem to have stopped once I installed BFuct 11 kernel.

Question about the FAQ...Are you going to keep updating the first post with relevant questions so this doesn't just become another 300 page thread that is impossible to wade thru? I think an FAQ / wiki is great but I don't want to have to read every post to see if someone asks about a problem or gives a solution to a problem that i have.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dtom2444:
Ok, so I finally put cm6 on my phone and everything seems to be working fine. The only problem I'm having so far is internet (data) speed. Using the browser takes noticeable longer to load, but what's really bad is the market. It's taking about one minute, literally, to bring up an app after selecting it. I've read about "upgrading radios" and that's the only solution I can think of. Any ideas?

Side note, would installing a new kernel, BFS maybe, provide a performance increase all throughout the phone? Just curious...
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
Oh ok, just wondering if you're running CM6. I would definitely recommend it :D
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
BFS would improve performance of the phone, yes, but not the data connection. I would recommend the bfs kernel, but the data issue is probably sprint, not the rom. Unless you're getting poor signal, you shouldn't need to change your radio.

Damn Impaler... you're just the answer master aren't you...

meanwhile I'm swimming through these posts trying to find the ultimate answer

so hopefully you don't mind if I ask since I've gone through 20+ pages and still can't find the answer.

1. I just loaded CM6 last night... love it... will loading the latest nightly patch me all the way through the others that have been released through CM6 or do I have to load all of them.

2. What kernel should I be running (my battery life sucks, and Im sure it has nothing to do with CM6.. it was like that before

3. Autokiller... I should be running this correct?

4. Am I missing the ultimate tweak post, or is it just a matter of hunting and pecking through this forum.

Thanks! :D
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rundmcarlson:
Hi, I seem to be having some issues with battery life and I think they may be caused by an incorrectly rooted or installed recovery/rom. All apps that need root access work and I have superuser but when setcpu starts both bars set to 19500 automatically, no matter what I set it to prior. (I enabled set on boot). Also, my battery life is terrible even though I flashed deced3nce's kernel 14 which is supposed to give great life. I lose over 10% an hour of battery life with little to no use and others report 17+ hours with moderate use. Could I have installed something wrong?

Also, I thought the recovery and the kernel were the same but I could be wrong because after flashing kernel 14 I still boot into clockworkmod 2.5.0.1. Is this right? If not, what could cause this?

Replacing AOSP clock with Sense 2.1 clock app?

Coming from the Stock 2.1 ROM, about the only thing I miss, other than the Sense Clock/Weather widget (Fancy Widget is an ok substitute), is the clock app. I really liked being able to tap on the clock widget and have quick access to a Desk Clock, World Clock, Alarm, Stopwatch and Timer all there in one place.

I'm not a fan of the AOSP Clock as I don't use the photo or music options, so I am wondering if it's possible to replace one with the other? Or, are there alternative (skinnable) clocks I'm overlooking that would give me some of the functionality I'm missing?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
1. When you flash a nightly or the 6.0.0 stable rom, it gives you all the advantages of the entire build, so you don't have to flash all of them, just the one you want to use.

2. I would use Decad3nce's uncapped BFS kernel #8 with either set cpu or the battery tweak (see my sig for the thread)

3. I like autokiller, and I would use it and set it to strict

4.No ultimate tweak.. just customize to what you like and what works best for you!

Hope this helps, let me know if you need anything else :D
