Sup Impaler had? If I mod a rom ( cm6) and add a few apks of my own which I intend to do is there a way to tell by how much did I add to the total size of the rom as in how it would load on the system data partition reason I'm asking is I'm using firerats rec mod and I know for sense roms and aosp the data mount partitions are different so if I alter cm6 how will I tell by how much so I can adjust the rec mod or does it just remain the same I hope this makes sense lol thanks man

No, you're incorrect. The default kernel is NOT fully overclocked, and to use set cpu as he specifically stated you should have the uncapped kernel installed. Please don't post on my thread if you don't know what you're saying.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
I'm not sure how that mod works, but you can go to settings, system storage to see how the free space changed. If this isn't what you're asking, let me know and I'll try to correct myself :D
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HEROEVO:
I'm running the latest nightly and have SetCPU installed and can push my phone to 768 just fine without the uncapped kernel. Just because it doesn't default to 768, doesn't mean that it can't go to it.

I have been running CM6 since Darch first released his first pre-alpha build and am in the IRC helping people everyday, I think I know what I'm talking about.

And for the record, I'll post in whatever thread I want to post in, thank you very much

:mad:
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehdarkknight:
HEROEVO never once said the default kernel was fully overclocked. In fact, unless I'm terribly bad at reading, he says the default RC1 kernel goes to 691, not 768. Everything HEROEVO stated is correct. The Hero's default frequency is 528, so by definition anything over that is overclocked.

As for SetCPU, you don't need to have an uncapped kernel to use it, you just need an uncapped kernel to hit 768 on any ROM before the 9/10 nightly.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
Almost all the posts from you here in my thread except for about 4 have been arguing with me and with others about flash, and I feel that it is extremely unproductive.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
Actually only the nightly kernels are able to go to 768, not RC1.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehdarkknight:
That's exactly what I said, read it again.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gobi42:
Being an OP you should know all of the facts before you flame someone who is in fact giving true and factual advice as of 9/2 Darch changed the kernel and uncapped the nightly to run to 768 and default to 691 if you have any issues your more than welcome to come to the irc and discuss this further.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
I would not be flaming him except he has done nothing but argue with me and actually tried to dissuade people on other forums who said they were going to donate to me to do so (they did anyways).
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wiiguy5:
hey guise lets all ask stupid questions and donate to our god, the almighty impaler, for guessing, and donate to him for the work of others kthx
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gobi42:
I don't care about something stupid like donating if you notice i don't have a donation button and never will info and help are free and should be free and flaming someone who is tell the truth is rather immature and petty. What he said was based on facts like it or not he was and is right. Just cause you run a Q&A forum doesn't mean your the only one that can give advice if anyone wants free advice and help at any time they are welcome to come to the irc and we the community will step up and help them any and every way we can. We have been doing this since before this rom was cm6 and will continue to do so in the future. LIke i said in my early post if you have any issues your more than welcome to come to the irc and we can discuss them. Have a nice day
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
Really? The help and advice that I give is the work of others is it? I suppose that I copy it from you, with your infinite wisdom and humor? Oh and your great spelling, too?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
I've found the IRC to be little help as most people on there talk about cars, not the ROM.cAnd my advice is free, people only donate if they want to, but it's a pretty stupid thing to dissuade people to donate to other people when they want to because of good help.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shabbypenguin:
you guys need to stop flaming, by following his work i was able to get over 9000 on linpack. clearly he knows what he is talking bout, mirite?

hey sorry i cant donate yet impaler, i just gave my last bit of spendable money to kyouko for the visual fix ill hit ya up laterz

From one Minnesotan to another...yeah, at some point even in my 6.0 it disappeared, not sure when:confused: You can install CMParts, set up your lights (only ones that work are orange and green) but when you reboot the option will go away again. Not sure why.

Not to mention 6.0 eventually removed this. Still can't get the LED working for missed calls though (yes, that option is checked in call settings).
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
It's because it's not natively made to work for the hero's wimpy LED selection ;)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emipow:
That's what I was trying to do, but when I go into the settings in Messages, Gmail, Email that option is no longer there either. I can choose notifications completely on or off, select a ringtone, and turn vibrate on/off, but there is no option to set the light to blink or not.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
Probably not an option without a third party app then
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emipow:
Ok, thanks for your help. Do you know of any apps I could try to do this other than CMParts?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
Not sure, there's a few in the market I think though :)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MECHAnized:
Hi Impaler, thanks for taking the time to answer so many questions.

Lately my Cyanogen modded phone has gotten terrible battery life and slow recharge times. Wiping the battery stats usually reveals an extra 10-15% of battery life which is weird. I've heard about a battery tweak but don't really know what or where it is. I noticed this battery issue on CM6.0 RC1, and yesterday I upgraded to CM6.1 RC1 and the problem persists.

Any help would be appreciated.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
Do you have a kernel flashed?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Like I said, install CMParts, set up your lights and they will work. Mine all work fine once I set them up with CMParts in 6.1. Just make sure you select "green" or "orange" for the color
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I know it, it would be nice to have more options other than green and orange:D
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emipow:
Thanks! I do plan to give that a try! I was just looking to avoid having to set it up again after each reboot :D
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MECHAnized:
Umm, my settings for kernel version say "2.6.29.6-cyanogenmod ammer@darchstar #3"
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Not sure if you can...I haven't found anything, but then again, once they are set up, and enabled you won't ever need to do it again.:)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emipow:
Oh, so the settings stick, you just can't go and change them again? That will be perfect. I guess I misunderstood before.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Yeah. They will stick, but the option to change them won't...which is fine because you can't change any color anyway. So just enable them, green, and they will stay.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
Ok. Go here to download a better kernel, and at the bottom of the second post is the battery tweak :) Flash both from recovery

trackball ... please don't ignore

just looking for a quick one. can i turn off the trackball and hardware LEDs with the cyan settings? i went into the auto backlight setting, and i don't use auto btw, selected custom and turned all the buttons to zero, doesnt seem to listen to me? any ideas, already searched xda, no result...?

edit - i should add that it DOES turn off the led's and trackball, but when i adjust the dim level with the presets in the new power widget in cm6.1 in the notification bar, it seems to override the custom level setting...
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
Yes you can, but it has to turn off all bottom leds, not just the track ball... is this ok?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Impaler can correct me if I am wrong, and he may be typing at the same time:D...It has to do with the dim level that the setting is at in the notification pulldown...it's not the same as in the setting you changed to 0. If they match, it should work fine.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
Well, if he set all to 0 on the bottom leds, they should all turn off, no matter what brightness
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Yeah, I suppose that's true. What I did is just set the lowest setting to "0", so that when I am in bed at night it wouldn't keep the wife awake with bright lights. as long as the levels matched it works...The levels in "Screen Dim level" and "Edit other levels". One was 16, the other 20. Set them to match and all was good.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] il Duce:
ok so here's what i mean...

when i set it to 0 for buttons they go off, but then (still set at 0 custom level) whn i use the brightness toggle in the notifications bar it turns them back on, the only toggle they stay off on is auto (i currently have the toggles set to: auto,dim,40,100. also.. what the heck is the dim level setting in the cyan settings where i can change it to 20,24,26, etc? could these two things be related?

edit: also, if is use the brightness bar setting in the phone's display settings it turns them back no matter the brightness level...
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
I think the settings only work for auto brightness.... I think
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I set mine to match on the level I wanted the lights off at...only the lowest setting I have off though.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] il Duce:
ranger - how do i set them like that?

impaler - it does apply the setting even when i am at full brightness, it just overrides the levels when i use the toggle or when i use the brightness meter in display settings...
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Mine turn off on the lowest setting...but...come to think of it, it may be on auto at night...never payed attention. I just stop selecting when my lights go off :)

Alright, so good news - installing your theme seemed to do the trick (at least I don't get the error when I open up settings!) One more (hopefully, heh) thing - which fix do I need to install to fix the colors? The clock and notifications seemed to blend right into the background - I saw a couple fixes in your sig that might work, but I am not sure which one I actually need (or if there is just a setting I can tweak to get that to show up right). Do I need anything other than that one ZIP in your sig (right here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13748666/CMGold_6.1-signed.zip) for my mod? I thought maybe I had to install that on top of something else, but just installing this seemed to do the trick :)

new q: i seem to run at about 50mb free most of the time, and there are a bunch of apps that autostart right away after i long press kill them, how do i stop that. the ones that keep coming back (that i don't need running) are: dialer,email,mixzing(using widget),titanium backup,voicemail,calendar storage,handcent. also some of these are listed as foreground or background, what levels are safe to set these to, and can i ignore certain apps (like phone so it wont kill on a call?

btw imapler it had an update today (for your theme);)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] il Duce:
now you see what i mean?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
You can use an app called autostart to stop them, and what had an update? Autokiller?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Yeah. They still turn off on Auto though, just not when I use the notification pulldown to change (except Auto). They used to turn off when I selected the lowest setting. Now, even at the setting I had them at won't work. Time to try the Nandroid I made this morning and get it back :)

I had it set up from 6.0...maybe they just stuck? Whatever I had them set at in 6.0 stayed when I went to 6.1 and worked until I messed with it just now:confused: Weird.

Impaler - first entry here. First of all - thanks for maintaining this informative thread - just flashed to 6.1 a few days ago and was hoping this would fix GPS coming in/out randomly when using Sprint Nav which I rely on for work. As you recommended to "subliminalurge" above I went to Decad3nce's page . I can see the CFS kernel downloads but not sure which version to download (768 or 691)? Also, are there settings that I will need to set for the kernel following download?

Thanks in advance,

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler747:
No problem, I would recommend for stability and GPS the 691 CFS kernel. No tweaks are needed, but some, like the decamod battery tweak on the second post of that kernel thread, can be helpful :)

deca tweak

gold theme

boot animation

everything came up fine, oddly it seemed to load adw 3 homescreens way faster (usually took adw 2-3 minutes to work) except my market would not load, and i was missing a few downloaded apps... i rebooted and got the same thing, so i figured wth. nand restore, so i did, and now it works like it did before, so i am curious, is this the correct flash order? i would like to try again later given the speed i noticed, but can't figure out how to fix the market... any ideas?

bootscreen

did i get that right? and should i reboot between (i was wiping dalvik cache)

Is cyanogenmod cm6-build#99 the latest..That is what I have on my hero, but looking here it does not say anything about build # .... Got it through rom manager premium.

If a new build comes out will it be like starting over???

The newest stable and the one I recommend is CM 6.1.0, but the newest nightly is 117. These can't be found on rom manager, they are found here. Flash 10 will most likely never work on the hero, since the structure is not correct on the processor. And you can flash any CM build over itself, no wipe unless you have problems :D
