If you are in a call. When you hit the add call button. Your phone is going to try to dial the number and you will get silence. If you push the merge call button busy signal. Merge calls again, original call. Merge call again, short dial tone. Dial the number or select the contact. Wait for the person to answer. Merge calls and it works.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pfer10:
Yea that is the problem. From what I can tell if the theme doesn't have the mdpi folder then it gives trouble. Try androidian it has worked for me.

I love the look of Simi clock widget but it does not update. Anyone else experience this or know a fix? The only way I can get it to update is to go into the settings menu and save.:confused:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] runngwlf:
That is great battery life, considering your phone radio is off, your phone has been mostly asleep and the screen has only been on 4 or 5 times. I use my phone for a little more than that.

Long press home screen, choose widget, add it again, remove the old one. That's what works for me, seems to happen after a nandroid.

Conference Call Procedure

OK, following jaisanders4u's procedure, I am able to make conference call work doing the following:

1. Dial 1st number (either with keypad or contact press, etc.). Let the person answer.

2. Press "Add Call"

3. Dial 2nd number - there will be a short dial tone, then silence.

4. Press "Merge Calls" in upper left corner - there will be fast beeps.

5. Press "Manage Calls" in upper left corner - there will be silence.

6. Press "Manage Calls" in upper left corner - there will be a short dial tone, then silence.

7. Press "Add Call" - still silence

8. Dial 2nd number again - Let the person answer. This is critical.

9. Press "Merge Calls" in upper left corner. Should be connected.

Test and let me know if it works.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wjason:
Thanks, that worked. I should have tried that but I was too lazy to set up my custom colors again. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
Yeah me too, but when I do it now (after the last update it seems), everything is the same.

do these work with 2/10?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danbula:
Maybe since a couple of roms ago I have noticed more lag than before. Someone posted about the phone ringing and the screen not showing (just black screen) anything until 4 or 5 rings, sometimes more. Before answering the phone I want to know who is calling and sometimes I get a missed call because not answering on time.

Someone know a workaround on this? I'm using stock kernel with 2/10 rom, jit on, 729/352 Mhz with smartass governor.

Thanks in advance.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vayman:
Yep, using the android guy and it works great on stock theme!

**Edit: Was going to add this to my above post but 24601 beat me to it :p**
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
So far . . . yes. They are still limited to stock theme, though, and androidian, but I haven't been in androidian too long. Any other theme, and they tend to disappear and reappear intermittently.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] DJB628:
The issue is this, your saying we have to do it twice that does not make sense to me, and when I hit the add call, my phone does not try to call out, it gives me either the option to dial a number or to add a contact with a + sign
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
DonB, try following these steps and see if it works.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DJB628:
I will try it on the weekend, but seem crazy to have to do this way, I assume this is a glitch in the system, but at least there may seem to be a work around I guess, hope AOSP you can look into this to try to resolve this issue that has been there since Froyo

I have to laugh...not at the battery life which is downright amazing, I laugh at the little use the phone has seen. I would imagine most (all?) of us actually use our phone ;)

Yeah, and if you're looking for a ROM, custom or otherwise, with no bugs at all you can always use ... err ... you can use ... definitely let us know when you find it! :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jneg123:
I know exactly what you mean. I heard this a lot in dealing with computers, "It's not a bug, it's a feature." :rolleyes:

Seriously, thanks again to 24601.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Yeah, sorry about that. I am not very confident with these mods in either 3.0.0.5 or something other than stock theme. If the 3.0.0.5 mods loop for others, I'm gonna pull 'em.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
I think it must be something in the mod itself. Ranger was making them for edify and they worked flash-wise, so did your 3005, meaning it flashed. The rom is deodexed now as of 2/10, so I would assume that makes it easier, who knows. I pm'd ranger to see if he would try an andyguy for the 2/10, we'll see what happens.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Did you try it with the stock GB theme? It generally won't work with a themed ROM
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jneg123:
I had a problem with Google Maps holding a GPS lock with the 2/9 release. 2/10 works fine though. I don't use Navigation though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] silberj:
Try going into Settings/Applications/Manage Applications/Maps and also Navigation and clear that cache. Reboot recovery, clear cache, and that should do it. Worked for me. If that doesn't work, try same steps and wipe Dalvik. Hope it helps.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] silberj:
No GPS issues for me running the latest release. I used to have, but if you wipe the application cache (under the manage applications) for both maps and nav, you should be good to go.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
I'm running the androidian from the cm7 theme chooser app (which worked with your previous battmods), I edited my post, so far so good on the one 24601 sent me. However (much thanks to 24601) the green color is really bright, whereas the ones you made matched the stock green. I will use that one for now unless you decide to give it another shot, the stock is fine too. Thanks guys.

EDIT: the charging color is blue which showed correct on the lock screen but the status bar one stayed green, now changed to blue in the bar after about 4 minutes.... weird. If it's still qwirky later I'll revert, who knows.

EDIT 2: pulled the charger out, now it stays blue, lol. I'm gonna revert. again, thanks 24601 and ranger
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bks0101:
iHeart "works" fine for me. I say "works" because it's never stayed locked long enough to listen to more than 15 minutes or so on any ROM I've had, including the stock phone out of the box. Good stuff there, but really frustrating to try to listen having to restart the app to get it to lock in over and over..... at least that's been my experience...........
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Yeah, it is widely reported these mods do not play well with anything other than the stock theme. Mine worked in Androidian for a while, but I didn't stay longer than a few hours. The changing colors is the way I built it. I'll build one with stock green and you can see how it works.

does the GB rom automatically recover your apps?

just curious, i wiped everything as instructed (i was switching from CM 6.1 to the 2-10 build today), and after i flashed rom, gapps, deckern, signed into google etc, all 15 apps were restored back to my rom.

The character limit for CDMA is 160, but I've never had any issues sending texts more than that w/ either the stock messaging app or 3rd party app.

text

There is a 160 Character limit on text and then they are not sent. Most sms replacement apps like chomp sms and handcent correct this by splitting the sms in more than one message although I have been having problems with handcent not splitting the text messages.

No. It did/does it with both. It's something with the themes because they work with the stock theme/colors.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] athanos:
The theme chooser looks for the theme apk and redirects to look at the PNG and XML files in the theme apk and overrides the ones found in the normal apps and framework. So if the PNG changes are only made in framework-res.apk and you apply a theme. You are no longer using all of the framework. If you want it to work on a theme you will need to make all the mods to the theme apk as well.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] runngwlf:
Here is a warning to all... If you wipe cache and dalvik, your applications may not load back up if using data2ext.. I had to restore a nandroid.. by the way.. clearing the cache, didnt do jack.. at any point.. for the gps. At this point, it's not google maps or nav doing it.. I have tested on 3 other GPS nav programs, they all loose the GPS lock 1 to 3 min after starting, I can get it back (for another 3 min) by using the gps fix with gps status. It has to be something with the rom or the kernel. Will just have to wait for it to be addressed.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 808Bill:
No problems here.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Menu - Settings - Applications - Manage Applications - Gmail - Clear cache and Clear data. Let it resync and you should be good to go.:)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Right. It's doable, but not as easy as simply adding the BattMod pngs to a new framework because in looking at the theme apk, the pngs are named something different...in other words there are about 200 pngs in the BattMod that need to have the prefix "framework_res_" added to the png name in order to put them into the theme apk. Then I am sure there are XML edits involved as well, which I know nothing about:o

i have over come this by creating a davlik-cache folder in the /data partition after wiping cache and davlik-cache, then rebooting, or you can create a symlink to the internal memory davlik-cache location. after rebooting all apps was back and running normal. clearing the davlik-cache did wonders for me after updating. I'm not sure if wiping from the recovery is removing the directory or symlink or what, but maybe next time i will try just "# rm davlik-cache/*"
[Hero CDMA Android Development] athanos:
And it would have to be done to every theme for the theme chooser. I haven't looked yet, but there may be some duplicate png's in the systemui.apk. I know that the wifi pngs are located there and not in the framework. It might be worth a shot to look at those too. Could that maybe be the reason it works sometimes and other times not? I'm not sure, but someone may want to look. I could be way off beat, but just trying to explore some optins for those making the mod.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DJB628:
Bump, anyone else syncing to app brain and apps not showing online?? I have cleared data incase and the same results, still have missing online that are on my phone
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Yeah it would be a pretty big task to take on. But after further exploration, I am almost sure that's the case, as there are duplicated pngs in there matching the stock battery images which would override the framework when a theme is applied. It's more than I am willing to take on. I'm lazy :D They work stock, that's what I use, so if anyone wants the GB BattMods I make for myself, I can link them, but I'm not editing/porting them into the themes until an easy solution comes our way ;)

Screen off in call

I'm just now flashing the most recent update, but with the last two I've had a problem with the screen not turning off automatically in calls. With every other rom I've ever flashed, I have my screen timeout set to "never" or whatever the longest delay was, and the screen would always turn off automatically in a call. For me this is posing a problem because I've been randomly ending calls or muting myself, so I was wondering if this is just me or if this is a common problem. Any help appreciated! Great rom, by the way.

Yep - same for me - nothing works. Interestingly the GPS icon continues to show as locked (doesn't start flashing), but the GPS says signal lost and the screen shows that the app no longer knows where you are at. Nandroid back to 2/1 (not because that special or anything, but it's just the last backup I did) where everything worked and stay put until it's fixed - no big deal.....

I'm about ready to take the plunge on this ROM, which is a huge upgrade for me. I have some questions about migrating my apps, though. I'm currently running Fresh Rom 2.1.2 (I know, this is ancient) and have my apps on a 1GB apps2sd partition. What is the best way to migrate my apps to the new ROM?

Does this ROM recognize the same apps2sd partition on my SD card, or will I need to repartition it? How does data2ext factor into this?

Other than the apps, I think I'm pretty ok with the upgrade process. I've read through the ROMRepo wiki pretty thoroughly, and no big surprises (great job on the documentation!). My only concern is with the overclocked kernel. I've never run on on this Hero, so I don't know if it will be a stable one or not. Either way, the fix for it is simple (just annoying).

I just noticed that I still have PRI 1.68_003. Does this still work, or will it need upgrading?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sippi4x4man:
I have the same issue. GPS locks on just fine at first, but as soon as I start moving, the signal gets lost and I am stuck on "Searching for GPS Signal.......". I have tried clearing the cache, tried the suggestions with GPS Status from the market with no luck, tried every governor in cm settings with no luck, tried all different processor speed combinations, and disabled the auto killer memory optimizer app. Gps works great on my phone if I am using any 2.1 rom or aospMod v0.9.9.2. I will try again later tonight with a fresh install of 02-10-11.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
If you install a2sd it will recognize it, but I think you'd be smart to back it all up with titanium backup. If you want more space, I would try firerats mod instead of data2ext or a2sd, it seems more robust, and once you figure out what you are doing, it can be redone in about 5 minutes.

Overclocking should work fine for you up to 691, above that ymmv.

I don't know about the PRI

edit: don't just back your stuff up with titanium backup, back it up to your computer.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonmaloney:
Haven't seen that issue here, although I have seen several people forget to re-flash the data2ext zip after updating/re-flashing the ROM. I'm working on a way to use the ROM's built-in backup tool to prevent this from happening in the future, but it looks like it may have a bug.

EDIT: This should do it.

adb shell
mount -o remount,rw /system
echo "etc/init.d/40data2ext" > /system/etc/custom_backup_list.txt
mount -o remount,ro /system

The included SMS/MMS app shouldn't have any issues automatically splitting any text messages longer than 160 characters into smaller, discrete messages. I just tested it myself and the receiving phone showed both messages. Some people have had a problem with this in the past, but I thought it was resolved at this point.

My $0.02 worth - I prefer Firerats over A2SD - plenty of space, easy to set/change, and less wear from r/w's to the SD
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cmccracken:
I had read about the Firerat MTD partitioning, and it seemed that it didn't buy all that much space. I have ~80MB of apps on my a2sd partition, and the amount of space freed up by the fix wasn't much more than that.

However, I just realized that Firerat's HOWTO post for the MTD re-part was based on a G1. I added up the space my Hero's MTD partitions (459.5MB) and its over double what was available on the G1 (209.8MB). I can't believe there's really 130MB on the cache partition, and its being shrunken to 2MB?!! A 128MB gain? About 65MB is gained from the system partition. The recommended aospCMod MTD numbers (105 2) leave 352.5MB for the data partition by my math (fits my apps plus plenty to spare). Does that sound about right?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PRGUY85:
Hey Ive been having problems with my phone being awake much more than expected compared to Screen on times. This has happened with the past three versions f this ROM regardless if I install any apps or not. At one point I thought it was Google Maps since it always had a service running. At another aosp recommended using Autokiller and turning on international and national data roaming. However it still hasn't fixed the issue completely.

Now I'm doing more tests to diagnose problem and after 10 minutes after boot, my phone has been awake all the time. Based on battery status and spare parts the culprit seems to be the Dialer. I haven't even opened it in these ten minutes. And this is the first time I've seen dialer react this way. Any suggestions?
