Hey, DF.

You had the best rom out there for the moment with remix. I used to use it before I got a hero.

When did you get a hero?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gadgetcraze:
Will try. Slept last night in a boot loop. Woke up and saw gb running. Installed gapps and it would get stuck on the "touch the android" screen. Will try the tips mentioned in post no. 1137 and get back.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] athanos:
Hmmm... I can't seem to get v0.1.2 to install. It goes past the htc screen but then it's just black with no animation. I've tried with and without firerats. Guess I will have to wait until Monday to investigate more logcat had some errors but I'm on the road right now. I'll see if I can post a logcat later.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wcooper0077:
hey man i had the same problem i had to use the format feature in clockwork and format everything but sd card stuff than go in a run firerats and than installed the gb and the gapps and than i did the firerats thing and it booted strait up first time now when i did it without firerats it just would boot up without the damn market. it took me like 4 trys to get it but it went in

Also no one told me is it possible to delete and than re download the gmail app from the market i am wondering if maybe its an old gmail app thats not ment for GB i know its in the gapps program but just a thought
[Hero CDMA Android Development] reggiedarden:
You can uninstall gmail if you use titainium backup and then reinstall gmail from the market. I tried that but it didn't help.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wcooper0077:
thats what i needed to know thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wjason:
I changed to 48 and didn't see much change.......but when I switched back from JIT to fast, it helped a lot. Thanks for the help! For anyone interested, the only real difference I noticed with JIT was the Linpack score (which is irrelevant to me). Fast is plenty fast and seems to play nicer with LPP

obviously where it says nameofrecovery you should put the name of the one you're trying to flash
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gadgetcraze:
I do not use clockwork mod and have no idea what it is all about. Is there a way to install this without CWM?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] obsanity:
Download CWM from the market. Its free and it will give you an option to flash the latest version from the app with just a push of a button. Look for "ROM Manager" in the market. They have both the free and paid versions.

As far as I know you must use CWM to install this ROM because it's the only one which lets you clear all data from the phone.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaredlyvers:
As some members have pointed out, Google apps seem to be buggy ie. gmail will show an email but will only let you read it for about 4 seconds before returning you to the list view. I will say, the new keyboard is bad ass. Also noticed the camera doesn't work. Generates android robot image when used. I'll be looking forward to checking out the next versions.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] e1cadet13:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Blivit:
I wanted to bring this back up to see if anyone else is getting this or has any ideas on what it may be.

I'm running the 3/26 build, CM 3.0.0.5 recovery, no firerat and I have never changed any of the CM settings other than the CPU that I have set on ondemand since that worked best for pandora for me.

Been using everything like this with only the quoted above issue. Mine is not quote as bad though. Only sometimes when I switch to landscape and try to type a text everything switches but what I type does not show. I'll go back getting rid of the keyboard and it's there. Switch back to landscape...text gone...switch back and sometimes I will get the keyboard half screen as above.

It doesn't always do this, sometimes everything is fine. I thought it was my messaging app (was using handcent at the time) so I switched to go sms and am getting the same thing.

I do like the rom and will continue to use it but this piece is a bit annoying.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Neo31697:
That was mine for the most part all of my issues are gone, I did an hboot wipe through abd and then could flash the Tom flashed aosp 2.2 and then did a wipe and flashed this Tom back and that seem to clear everything up. If you need help pm me, vayman helped me through it you can talk to him he's a great person and willing to help. I have been told and I will tell you. BE CAREFUL MESSING WITH H BOOT.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] rondietz1:
Thanks, figured I was doing something wrong.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JohnPublic:
I performed the s0be fix from the terminal emulator and am still getting the "download unsuccessful" error most of the time on first attempt. I triple checked each line as I put it in. Is it not 800% success or did I just goof it?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
A few people have posted in the last day or so that they get that error, no firerats or data2ext, I myself got the error both pre and post firerats. It is a market issue. The only recommendation I have is watch the download happen either from "my apps" or with the dropdown bar opened, mine seems to work about 80-90% of the time without hiccup. YMMV.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Freeroot:
+1 I find that helps me too.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vayman:
as long as it returns a "#" after entering each code then you didn't goof it up, but if it returns anything else run each code again. You may also want to try this fix as well. ;)

Also, if I watch the download from the page of the app that I'm downloading that usually works for me. Just a suggestion though. YMMV :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JohnPublic:
That is a firerat fix correct? I'm not running it.

It's basically a non-issue as others have said since watching the app page works well. I'm just suffering from flash withdrawal and thought I would try the fix for something to do. :D

I'm a born tweaker. I can't seem to leave well enough alone.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vayman:
Yes, that is a FR fix. Sorry about that man, :o I thought you were running FR b/c you were applying the s0be fix. I understand now it was your ORD that was taking over! Gotta get that flash fix :D:D:D

Market Fix Attempt #EleventyBillion

I was going to write this up, but I wanted a few people to test it to confirm.

Well...lookie here! Two test subjects besides myself. ;)

Before we start, lets clear out the in progress app downloads/updates.

Go to your downloads in progress (Market --> My Apps) and clear out the "Starting Download" statuses individually by clicking each of them on their individual progress bars.

It will then take you to the app screen where you can Update or Uninstall the App.

Back out of this a repeat for all the remaining apps until you have no in progress app updates/downloads.

Now, lets try to fix our Market problem...

Settings - - -> Applications - - -> Manage Applications - - -> All Tab - - -> Market - - ->

You should see that you're running version 2.3.4 of the Market, if not, this idea/fix is not for you.

1. Force Stop

2. Clear Data (if a available)

3. Clear Cache (if a available)

4. Uninstall Updates

If Uninstall Updates is NOT available, the button (which is right of the "Force Stop) may be grayed out and labeled Cancel. Continue anyway through the rest of these steps and then repeat this process, see if "Uninstall Updates" is STILL NOT available.

5.Reboot to Recovery

6.Clear /Cache

7.Clear Dalvik

8.Reboot

9.Check Your Work --> Settings ---> Applications --> Manage Applications ---> All Tab ---> Market ---> Does it say 2.3.3 now? If so try installing an app.

Side Note: When I was having all the Market issues, market.android.com ALSO showed no device linked to my Google Account. Are you seeing the same problem??

After my previous issues attempting to solve the long standing Market/FireRats issues, the problem popped up again. That's when I tried this process. I'm VERY happy to report about 10 days of fully functioning Market.

Finally, (and this is VERY interesting) about two days ago I checked my Market version...what do you know... version 2.3.4. I'm guessing that the Vendor.apk that is provided with the flash-able GAPPS has a corrupted version of 2.3.4, scaling back, and then allowing the OS to download the updated Vendor.apk from Google may have been the issue all along. As I said, this is a very sloppy test/attempt in TRYING SO DESPERATELY to get down to the bottom of this. This may not work at all for those of you currently having issues, those of you NOT running FireRats. Give it a shot if you're bored. Let me know what happens.

EDIT: I have revised this post with additional steps RE: Downloads in progress before the fix. See Above

RVDigital Market Fix Results

OK, here's my results.

I was able to uninstall updates, reboot recovery, wipe cache and dalvik, and when I rebooted I was back to 2.3.3. I had three apps waiting to be updated. I had them all update at once and I specifically backed out of Market while they updated to see if they would still update while not watching them. They continued to d/l for about 10 seconds then my Lookout security gave me a message that "Market was scanned and safe" as if I had just d/l and installed Market. ????? At this same time, my three d/l's completely disappeared from my notification bar. Went into Market and the three d/l's were still showing that they were trying to d/l. Checked my Market app and sure enough it was back to 2.3.4. So, Market immediately updated on its own. Rebooted to recovery, wiped cache and dalvik again and went into Market. The three d/l's were still trying to d/l. When I pressed each one, they immediately changed from d/l to install, and all three installed fine (I backed out of Market while they were installing and they still appeared in the notification bar as installing). I then d/l a new app and specifically backed out of Market to see if it would d/l without me watching. It d/l'd and installed perfectly. No insufficient space messages or disappearing d/l's. So, for me, for now, this appears to have solved my Market.

My firerat is 95 3, and previously I had done both ninja's fix and s0be's fix.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rondietz1:
I get the error mainly when I'm downloading more than one thing at a time, and if I click on the error in the dropdown it always says, something about lack of mem or space, I'll have to pay better attention, but it's always the same message. If I re-try the failed item a second time, with no other downloads happening, it always is successful. Maybe it's some sort of a bandwidth thing, but not a major problem.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wjason:
I tired this and the uninstall updates box said cancel. After rebooting to recovery and wiping cache and dalvik, I still show version 2.3.4 with the grayed out cancel button. It seems that I cannot get my device to roll back to version 2.3.3. In case it helps/matters, I am running GF Data2Ext. Maybe I can find a 2.3.3 APK out there somewhere??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JohnPublic:
Clear Data and Clear cache were both unavailible. As was uninstall updates.

Market still shows 2.3.4.

Tried three updates from market while on my homescreen. Had one unsuccessful. :/

I'm using gapps-gb-20110325-signed.zip btw.

EDIT: I want to point out that my error is not the insufficient space that most people seem to have. Mine says "download unsuccessful" and will even say that sometimes on successful installs/updates just before saying "successfully updated."
[Hero CDMA Android Development] RVDigital:
Im not sure when, but at some point, 2.3.4 finishes what its doing an allows you to roll back. Repeat the steps again, this time, try and clean Download Manager Data/Cache as well as the rest of the steps. Maybe, do the Download Manger cleaning before market and before reboot to recovery step. I want to say that I think the Vendor.apk updates reside here.

This is only a test.

Good Call, I will update the steps I outlined. I forgot to mentioned that I had the Starting Downloads going as well and I cleared them before starting my test. Go to your downloads in progress and clear them individually by clicking each of them on their individual status bars. It will then take you to the app screen where you can Update or Uninstall the App. Back out of this a repeat for all the remaining apps until you have no in progress app updates/downloads. THEN, try the steps I outlined.

To anyone else trying to fix a similar market issue(FireRat's or not), what happens when you use an older GAPPS, say from January? If you're feeling ballsy, start from scratch. What Market Version is pre-installed? Can you download/update apps from the start?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
RVD, FWIW, I did not have any d/l's in progress when I started your fix. They first appeared when I was testing after doing all the steps. I think the d/l's got hung by the fact the Market updated itself to 2.3.4 within 10 seconds after I started the update of the apps.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] RVDigital:
Very surprised it updated so quickly. When I initially ran that process as described, i think it was v2.3.3 for at least two days.

Hi, my name is Bill, and I'm a Flashaholic. It's been 12 days since I last flashed a ROM... (This is where you're supposed to say, "Hi Bill"). ;)

I just downloaded and installed market 2.3.2. Restarted phone, checked app, still 2.3.2. Went to the market, while browsing apps the market closed with no FC message. Checked apps.... 2.3.4! Still having download issues. *boggle*
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Yeah, I was a little surprised, too. I expected to be on 2.3.3 for a while. But, as ^^^JohnPublic found^^^ the Market is updating almost instantaneously.

John, after the Market updated itself to 2.3.4 I rebooted to recovery and wiped cache and dalvik again. It seems to work for me for now.

If you guys really want an old market, delete the system app market updater, delete your market and flash an old gapps from rom repo. Or flash a themed market by pendo.

I agree, I just deleted the market updater when I was using firerats with gb and it solved all of my market issues. I did the same when I started using data2ext "gf " method with the gapps that aosp posted and the themed ones that kfunk posted.

Alright, I'm having a weird issue. Idk if it's rom related or hardware. I'm doing the plumbing for a new hospital in Oakland, CA and my phone is doing some weird stuff with data coverage. it'll show I'm connected to 3g while I'm at the job site (verified via about phone) but when I try to use data it just hangs for a while then the signal bar drops to nothing (still showing 3g) then jumps back up to full again, then drops signal and switches to 1x (with poor signal). it takes over a full min to actually start downloading data. I'm thinking it's switching towers a couple times then finally giving up and switching to edge coverage. It only does this at the job site and it's been doing it since I started working there 2 months ago. Could there be a permission issue with the towers? I'm out of ideas and it's driving me nuts! Any ideas?

Also, I'm running 3/26 latest radio/prl and as of 3 days ago s0be's .35 kernel.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Well, my success was short lived. Started d/l an app tonight and backed out of Market, the app d/l for about 20 seconds, then the d/l stopped. No message. Went back into Market and started the d/l again but stayed and watched and it d/l fine. Sigh :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jneg123:
My guess is that you really aren't connected to 3G data. I've had that happen to me before when I wasn't in a good coverage area. The icons don't properly change to show no data signal. It may still show 3G data connection until you actually try and use it.

My dad used to work plumbing and maintenance in a hospital, from what I remember visiting him at work, with all the pipes, thick walls, and electrical equipment in a hospital, getting a good signal is gonna be tricky.

Question is, are you seeing this behavior when you aren't in the building at work? Let say you step outside and everything goes 3G?

If it works elsewhere, then it's not really the phone, it's just doing it's best to find a signal. Are you noticing a faster battery drain when you're at work as opposed to your day off?

One option is to turn your data roaming on. You won't get 3G, but may get a lower speed data connection. Go to:

Setting>Wireless & Networks>Mobile Networks and check National Data Roaming.

I've had my phone default to this several times when on a road trip and was out of Sprint's data coverage area. Not sure who it connects to, maybe Verizon? The icon looked something like an radio tower with a triangle. This happened when I was still on Sense, before rooting and using AOSP.

Hope this helps. Also, we have the unlimited data plan and I never had an extra charge appear on my bill with this enabled.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
Beyond, I think the main issue is that your in Oakland. All of the copper wiring has been ripped off to be recycled- there and Berkeley. Just kidding. If your signal is only poor in that area, I think you could deduce that the problem lies in that area and its not a rom/hardware issue. Especially if your prl has been updated.

Since my prl update, my signal has gotten worse.

My alma mater is across the bridge from you.

Like Butter

Well I'm afraid I have some bad news...

For those of you holding out on flashing anything and those just getting over your need for a new fix to cure the itch...

s0be's AP#5 is SO F***ing necessary that you are literally running behind the pack if you don't flash this going forward.

After performing a fresh wipe of my Heroc, I'm happy to report that not only is my phone truly running faster than ever, but after a slimmed down FireRats MTD configuration. I have 0, yes ZERO Market issues out of the gate. Upon completing the initial sign in, Market 2.3.6 was already installed and up and running, downloading the Google Apps that I specified during start up. Of the 12 simultaneous downloads and installs running at the same time, NONE of them failed. All are flawless.

This is it folks, with the exception of a Vanilla GB build, I'm having a hard time understanding how it could get much better.

Unless s0be has any final tweaks he needs to add, call #5 the final release.

Like I said, if you've been holding out, start your backups and prepare your nandroids. Get on board or GTFO!
