Well I am not having any root issues and I use apps everyday that require su permissions, so something is corrupted. I am running the stock odexed since before release and the only change I have done is 633 Overclock.

try going into the market adn download the latest busybox and see if this cures the problem.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cephraim:
Downloaded and installed the busybox app. When I run it, it tries to install busybox, but comes up with the error:

"The application failed either because your device is not nand unlocked, or we were unable to remount..."

Drat. I guess I'll try reinstalling the ROM.

Let me know if you have any other ideas I should try before doing so. Everything was working so well until I had an unrelated problem and decided to restore yesterday's nandroid backup.

EDIT: Update -- I reflashed SU and it is now working. Not sure what happened...

Thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Enmedi00:
I installed the odex version on my hero and it still installing the apps to the internal memory. I tough that odex had a2SD?!?!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
Did you partition your memory card properly? Or at all?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Enmedi00:
Yes I partitioned my sd using a ROM manager
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
Not sure what to say then :/ I don't use it.

On the topic of the ROM, I'm just checking back in after a few days of use. It's damn fast, gets great battery life, has put me and good terms with the Sense launcher as opposed to LP, and at the moment, I've got precisely 140 MB of free RAM. I love this ROM.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mozman:
I sure am! Using Odex and running the super battery circle with no problems.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] digitalnirvana:
Happened with me, so I had to limit to 710 MHz using SetCPU.:(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
Do you (or anyone) know how to remove this? I checked under "Applications" but its not listed there.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
It's not an app, it's a code overlay. It gets flashed to system memory. You can't "uninstall" it as if it were an app.

In fact, I'm not sure how you can simply remove it without leaving a "hole" in the operating system code where it resides. The only way to remove it would be to replace that code with some other code.

There are two ways I can think of to do that. One way would be to flash a different battery status icon zip file.

The other way would be to re-flash nfinite's .7 rom, which would overwrite that chunk of code with the stock code again. Of course, that would also overwrite all of the other code you have flashed, including any kernel, no-haptic dialer, etc. But at least you could re-flash that stuff again afterwards.

Just curious, though ... why do you want to remove that icon? I really like that icon, because it tells me the remaining battery percentage at-a-glance.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
Thanks for the info, I may just reflash the rom. It's a stock odex rom and the only real change I've made is the 710 kernel which is no big deal to redo.

I like the super circle also but find the 'number' to be a tad small for my aging eyeballs. I was using Battery Indicator Pro prior and it had a bit larger font. I also wanted the super circle to minimize the things in the shade (accomplished this) and to possibly reduce battery usage by streamlining. Not sure this happened though as my battery life seems the same (or slightly worse). Do you know if Super Circle has any detrimental battery life effects at all?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Macanage:
I was going to use the circle battery because I really prefer it to the stock, but...the one thing that bothers me is that is turns yellow at 49% and it makes me feel like a better charge it in soon. Does anyone know how to modify it to say, become yellow at 35%, and red at 15%?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Rivas123:
Hey Nfinite I've come back to your rom. just can't beat this. Thanks man!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Enmedi00:
LiquidSolstice, why do yo have 140mb free... I only have 90mb. is there someting that could to to free some spce?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xDragod:
You could try using Ultimate Online Theme Kitchen, select the circle battery mod, then just change the percentage values for each color to whatever you'd like. I've never actually tried this, however... Do a nandroid. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pyovue:
Download links down?? After the wait, it says "Opps! Google Chrome cant find file" or whatever.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mkeyslehman:
If you were to open that ZIP you'd find framework-res.apk, which is, technically, an app. But a system framework app, so no, it's not something that you could simply uninstall. When you flash a theme that's a ZIP, you're replacing the programs on your phone with ones where the graphics have been changed or replaced. Themes merely replace PNG graphics within an apk; there is no code.

Question about switching from deodexed to odexed

I've been running NFX Hero deodexed. Great ROM Nfinite (as ALWAYS!) No mods except for SuperCircle Battery. Going to switch to stock odexed since I read that SuperCircle mod works with odexed version as well as deodexed. My main question is: If I backup my apps on a deodexed ROM using Titanium, will I be able to restore them to an odexed ROM? Am I just wasting my time backing up everything? I am ready to do this right now and was wondering just what is in store for me if anyone has tried this previously.

Thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] c00ller:
Yes it should be fine to restore all userapps across any ROMs. Theoretically system backups should be fine too in this case but in general I wouldn't recommend it unless it's the exact same ROM.. which I guess it essentially is so it's your call on the system apps.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Rivas123:
Everything seems awesome I just can't ddownload anything from the market, it either stays 'starting download' or says that i don't have enough room. any ideas? I read the thread but with so many pages I probably missed it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
I'm having the same problem on my son's phone (I just flashed this rom to his phone).

The 'starting download' message hangs there forever, but no download arrow ever appears in the notification bar.

Anyone know how to fix this?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Rivas123:
Yeah even the nfl update isn't going through.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
Check my sig for the solution.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Rivas123:
I tried that but it kept giving me errors that I didn't have enough memory.

Ok so what I did try was renaming the market app to vending.apk like you said too. unzip the rom, delete the old one put the renamed one in. re-zip. flash. then install the market app again. now I at least get the % bar going but nothing dl-ed yet.

All right! apps are dl-ing. I don't know how to pull or push files thats why I rather just unzip. I should of done that the first time I went to your thread before you suggested it. Thanks a bunch.

my suggestion would be to reload the recovery image, sounds as if your recovery is not working correctly, doesnt sounds like it is performing the wipes corretly adn the usb failure
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pipefitter:
Nfinite,

How do I reload the recovery image?

Is there really any benefit to flashing the 710 kernel over the 691 kernel? It seems like the speed gains would not even be noticeable...??

Anyone know of a way to get the Vanilla lockscreen on this ROM? I've tried WidgetLocker and Lock Bot... Neither work perfectly.

I know Fresh had it working, but it was slightly different than stock works where Fresh's vanilla lockscreen showed you your app shortcuts and widgets from your homescreen. I'm looking for one that works like CM6 where all you see is the background + Lockscreen clock.

Possible?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] c00ller:
I used this http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6271756&postcount=30 on the .6 de-odex and it worked perfectly. With these metamorph files you even have the option to have it clear or wallpaper, and you can choose your wallpaper, and text or no text (clock, Sprint, etc, but it says charging status regardless).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xDragod:
Metamorph is saying that there is something wrong with it. :(

.7 odexed.

EDIT: Just realized it's because I'm on odex rather than deodexed. Dammit.

Another question: If I start over and flash the deodexed version, can I just download the deodexed zip and remove the .apk files from /system/app that I do not want? It'd be easier than using Titanium Backup.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] c00ller:
Kind of confused by what you're asking. You can't remove the .apk files from the zip, unless you want to go through the trouble of resigning it. You should just flash the deodex zip as is, then remove whatever you want from /system/app no problem. Titanium backup is primarily used to backup userapps but it can be used to backup system settings as well.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
If anyone's interested, I have fully zipaligned and pngoptimized the Odexed version of the Update 3. I feel it's notably faster, nothing mind-blowing, but boot up was much quicker, so I know it worked :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pipefitter:
Reflashed recovery image. Same results as above. Nandroided back to NFX Hero, boot to recovery, wipes say they are successful, USB-MS works...no problems with anything in recovery.

DL'ed the deodexed ROM, wipe, wipe, wipe. Flash deodexed ROM and Installation aborted again.

Any other suggestions?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
I'll give it a go
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Enmedi00:
Anyone knows how I can install apps2sd on my hero? I am running nfx odex update 3
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
You have me at a loss, as no one else has issues with not enough space, I personally at this point would use and ruu to rest the phone to factory specs then root and try again. Just my opinion
[Hero CDMA Android Development] indiscriminant:
I had some random issues like that back on the .5 or .6 release, don't remember exactly which one it was.

I had to RUU, re-root, and also redownloaded the ROM. After that it worked like a charm and everything has since. Not sure which of the items fixed the issue. Just know it worked. Takes awhile though=/
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
I'm currently running update 3 odexed and would be interested in this. Got a link to it? Would it require a wipe prior to flashing?

I'm running the ODEX version of stock ...7, and noticed that I can only run at 528MHz (not sure where the built in OC is, but via Overclick Widget, I max out at 528). So I downloaded the 710MHz OC kernel from the front page and flashed it, but now my phone is stuck at the HTC boot screen. It's been that way for over 15 minutes. I have to pull the battery to restart into recovery and Nandroid a back up.

I remembered to wipe Dalvik-cache both before and after flashing the new kernel. The first time I did it via the screen option (I got the error that it didn't work, but I've been told that that error is incorrect). The second time I used adb wipe dalvik and still I'm stuck at the htc boot screen.

Suggestions? Thanks!

[Hero CDMA Android Development] xDragod:
I want to switch from Odex to Deodexed so that I can use the stock lockscreen, but I don't want to have to start over. Is it possible to flash the Deodexed version over the Odexed version and perhaps delete the .odex files from /system/app, or is this not enough?

I mainly want to keep my progess in a few games and my small changes.

Thanks everyone!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
To everyone, I apologize for the delay, knocked the power supply loose from my computer and I finally got it fixed. Link is reuploading and will be here within minutes of this post.

Here we go.

This zip file is identical to NFinite's most recent .7 Odexed ROM (version 3.1). Everything the ROM on the first page contains, this does as well, however, this ROM has ALL the system apks fully png-optimized and zip aligned, saving marginally in space and noticeably increasing performance, especially first boot. It is signed and excepting the optimization done to it, NO apks/files were removed or added to the ROM whatsoever. It looks exactly like what you get on the first page.

Note: To get the full performance, I'd wipe before flashing. Keep in mind, this won't blow your mind away, it's won't make the phone like Froyo or turn it into an Evo, but you WILL notice the phone being much faster to boot and faster in general.

Enjoy!

Link down while I figure out why people are running into issues.

If there is enough demand for the same optimization done on the deodexed version, I may upload it.

Are you using ClockworkMod? I've just realized, you might have Signature verification turned on (it's in the choose zip to flash menu. I had a similar issue.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pipefitter:
I am using RA1.6.2. I have no problems flashing anything other than 2.31.651.7
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
Try Clockwork. Some ROMs work better with it. You can install Clockwork through ROM Manager, which is available in the Android Market. If you'd like to stick with Amon Ra, Clockwork can restore the recovery for you afterwords.

What I suggest you do?

Boot into a stable working ROM right now.

Grab and install Rom Manager from the market.

Using it, install Clockwork Mod.

Reboot the phone into recovery.

Flash this ROM.

Boot into, Get Rom manager back again, and simply restore RA Recovery. Hopefully that will help (although I do advise you stick with Clockwork, it's in more current development than RA.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jtpterp:
Flashed and booted fine.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
Pipefitter, I may be grabbing at straws here, but is your sd card partitioned for a2sd?

If you're not running a2sd, then maybe the .7 rom is trying to load too much (apps, dalvik, etc) into system memory and you're running out of system memory.

If you haven't created an ext partition on your card, then you might do that and then re-flash the .7 rom and it will load some stuff onto the card instead of system memory.

Hey, it's worth a try...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
I dont think this is the issue either as I dont use a2sd on my phone and havent had any issues, to me it seems his mtd partitions are screwed he really needs to run an ruu to completely reset the phone adn wipe his sdcard. at least that is what I would do at this point.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pipefitter:
I did as you suggested. Got ROM manager, flashed clockwork recovery, wiped and flashed the deodexed version of this ROM. It wouldn't finish the flash, installation aborted. Flashed NFX Hero. Booted in and DL'ed ROM manager again. Can't flash back to RA1.6.2...that selection is grayed out! Reflashed RA1.6.2.img through ADB. Restored latest nandroid backup and am back to square 1. Like I said in post #842, I am able to do pretty much everything "flash-wise" except for NFX Sprint 2.31.651.7
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pipefitter:
Partitioned, ext2 to ext 3---did all that. Been running NFX Hero since it came out and Nfinite's stock ROM before that with no problems flashing.

Which RUU should I run? I have 2.27.651.5 on my laptop. Hell it's been so long, I forgot how to root. Rooting took like 15 steps!LOL There is an easier way to root now, correct?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
Use the app I've attached, unbelievably easy.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] scifan:
Yeah, the universal root's WAY easier than the old way... (and it'll root .6 also)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
This is insane. I have no idea why it doesn't want to work for you :(. My only other guess is that you're not Sprint, but I doubt you would have tried this much if you weren't on Sprint. Best of luck getting it to work, I'm sure you'll figure it out in the end.

Hey all, I'm a noob to all this android stuff but i rooted my heroc with superoneclick which was at .7 stock. I flashed the nfx deodexed version with rom manager. My question is in settings for software information all the info for build number and kernel version, etc. show exactly what it showed when it was stock. Is that what it should show or am I missing something? Also how can I tell what the cpu is running at, do I need to download setcpu? Thanks.

Ok, well I have tried flashing both the deodexed version and the odexed version without a2sd with rom manager and both have not flashed. Should I try flashing without rom manager and use a manual flash method?

Update: Ok, I deleted the two versions of nfx sprint roms from my sd card and dl'd nfx hero rom to my sd card. I then flashed the hero rom with rom manager with success. Still not sure as to why the nfx sprint rom's will not flash. Could it just be a bug with rom manager? Thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ItsDon:
Sounds good man, thanks. I'm not expecting any drastic improvement over nfinites already killer rom but will take even a minute improvement so it will be worth a full wipe reinstall to me. Is there any benefit to the battery life with these optimizations?
