ROM Manager has never fully worked for me and most people will tell you to backup and flash from recovery, not ROM Manager. I'm sure you've been doing this longer than me but I've never run into any problems using those attached files or that HERCIMG recovery. I'm just trying to cover all the bases.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] systemshock869:
Well I don't flash the ROM from ROM manager, I just use it to get CWM. I guess I could try the manual method but I actually don't remember how.. I tried adb flash_recovery <filename> and that didn't work. Haven't had a chance to look up the command

Aloha folks, here you go.

On another note, Saturday, we had the Changing of the SD Card Ceremony as my beloved Hero was retired from action. It was a beautiful ceremony. My daughter danced hula, my son saluted, and my wife left the room shaking her head in disgust.

I wish to thank you all for teaching me so much, and also giving me a laugh when I really needed it. I'll be hanging around, if for nothing else then to put some money on the Il Duce Baby Pool ($5 says a girl... and he names her Aosp).

The Hero Developers are the best, mahalo for all you've done, and a warm Aloha to you all.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] bjvanwash:
I'm still fairly new to all of this, so I apologize if any of this sounds dumb:

I was running CM6 which was great and decided to update my hero to the aosp mod (which is awesome by the way). I believe I have done everything correctly including flashing CW 3.1.0.1, wiping everything, flashing the aosp mod, and then flashing gapps.

Everything is running smoother and faster except for the actual phone part. There is a delay when I dial and it acts as if it connects but I never hear it ring. My internet is working fine and I haven't tried texting yet(I will tomorrow). Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance.

*Props to all the devs out there who made these roms, recoveries, etc possible :)

Congrats to you as well. Maybe it's the Minnesota water? I'm a pastor and I have four other couples in the church having babies as well ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
A couple thoughts...

1) my son, at a young 3 years old (maybe even my wife at times!) already thinks I am the dumbest person on the planet, so what's one more person :D

2) Ginger...let's just hope she doesn't have red hair ;)

*EDIT* My baby girl's first onesie?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hakujin:
So did I! I'm running CWM v2.0.5.7 w/ v3.0.2.2 ROM Manager.

I honestly fail to see all the hoopla to any of the v3 recoveries. Most of us just use it to wipe, flash, back up , and restore. The 2.x 'Green Lantern' accomplishes this just fine. Edify is just a PitA and creates additional hassle in install hurdles than its worth and dually, my last 3.x experience involved a bad restore.

Besides curing cancer, 4D, parting the Red Sea & giving a lap dance, what does the new ROM provide, other than a clock fix? I'm guessing only a clock fix (and maybe a system app update) as we all know 5.17 is rock solid and both are v2.3.4. Not debbie downing the ROM, LOVE IT... but insofar as the difference between 17th and 23rd. :D

NEVERMIND, found this (forgot about it):

http://romrepo.info/wiki/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges

Seems some nomenclature revisions changes; obviously the clock (though easy to fix if you have 5.17); workaround for camera bug (I never noticed this) and something to do w/ bluetooth headsets, which I believe is still broke. So... afaict, nothing really... EXCEPT

4D, Holograms, new car (and island) and LD.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
This room is +800D. Anyone else get a lower showing of available storage over the last build. I have seen it before.

More congratulations to the baby people. I'm with 24601, Ginger is the word, is the word.

I have two little girls. Enjoying them before they hate me, drop out of Jr high and get pregnant. Hopefully in that order too.

By the way, this Rom works better than Viagra AND 4 hour erections aren't dangerous FWIW.

Flashing IS a gateway drug!

[Hero CDMA Android Development] hareofthedog:
I'm almost afraid to download the latest, as apparently it can go back in time and increase fertility and cause flashing of items other than roms. My kids are at or near college age and I can't go through all that nonsense again.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
Well, I'm getting some strange behavior from 5/23 ... it turns my phone into an EVO 4G, but it still looks like a Hero. :(

Not complaining, I can prolly live with that if I have to, just wondering if anyone else is getting the same results.

There is indeed something in the water. I'm a pastor in Minnesota, as well, and while my wife and I are not pregnant (we're at two and holding fast--anything beyond that will be a miracle, one we are not asking for), it seems every third woman between early 20's and mid 30's in the congregation is "great with child."

Have open source roms really hurt htc that much? Are they just caving in to the carriers (*cough*sprint*cough*)? These phones are rapidly becoming or mobile computers, and I would NEVER buy a computer that I couldn't customize to suit my tastes/needs.

I often wonder what the use of locking a device down like this does, then I read all the posts here where people brick their phones or merely bootloop and then get either a warranty or insurance replacement. These are only the people who bother to post here (I don't frequent any other Android forums) and there are too many.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
So who can we contact at HTC to voice our disgust? It would be awesome if there was a single Point Of Contact that we could all contact and let him know that HTC is losing ALL of us as customers permanently if it doesn't unlock its phones.

We either try to approach HTC en force and convince them that it's in their best interest to unlock their phones, or we just throw up our hands in defeat and abandon any aspirations of ever owning another HTC phone.

A concerted drive on ALL of our parts (and I mean everyone at xda-developers) might be something that xda would be willing to organize, no? Just thinking out loud here, but I don't want to give up just yet, because we all know that HTC makes a quality product, especially when compared to the competition...I'm sure not looking forward to a Samsung phone anytime in my future.

Sorry for the threadjack, aosp.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] n33sirgp:

Well, that's what makes Android so "open".

If that's the reason, they should concentrate on making their phones water- and shatter-proof. I suspect more phones are bricked physically than from open source customizations.

It sure would be confusing if it was Sprint's call, right after they make a big deal about carrying the Nexus S 4G.

Regardless, I agree with everyone else here that this effectively rules out the EVO 3D for me. No matter how great the launch software is, it's a pretty good bet that you'll be lucky to have OS updates for even half of your contract, and even then it's usually a couple months behind.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hakujin:
I'd love to get a Evo 3D but taking a measured approach on this one in light of the news.

If /system is accessible (unsigned) though (as the leaked picture of the hex editor indicates)... that just means we cant customize UI or install custom kernels, recoveries, and ROMs, but still load apps that require super user and such after root yes?

If that's the case, it wouldn't be so bad as cooked roms, IMO, are largely a manifestation of abandoned hardware; a reaction to fragmentation. But the Evo 3d (in theory) should be pretty well supported through at least a couple major sw revisions, I would think anyway. So I don't mind doing the adb shell work myself, even if that means no Cyanogen Mod, or NAND.

If I can install SU apps, (wireless tether, SMB File sharing, PAW Server, Root Explorer, etc.), and remove /system bloat, I will be a happy camper, more or less. If not, I may just get the Galaxy S 2.

Anyone confirm (or deny) what I'm saying?

I had that happen to me on my old battery. When I took it out of the phone, I noticed it was no longer flat. It had developed a bulge in the middle. Physically inspect your battery and see if it showing any signs of failure.

FWIW, I picked up a couple of 1800mAh batteries from eBay for $25 with the wall charger. Now I just swap between batteries. I have been getting over 2 days of life on a single charge with moderate use. Also, Bat Stat widget showed the old battery running at ~93 degrees. The new ones run at ~77 degrees.
