I have tried that a couple of times already, I will give it a shot again to see
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DJB628:
Still does not show the unread count, weird, I am using the native app from the market, the one with the red envelope, not the exchange one, just to make sure
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jckeyser:
I find that after flashing the latest update or rebooting my phone, I need to:

Settings->Accounts and Sync->Press the account@gmail.com button->Make sure Sync Gmail is checked

A lot of times it becomes unchecked.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DJB628:
Yep it is checked, I had already checked that before, thanks though, any other suggestions
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jckeyser:
Hmm...do you have any settings apps like MySettings or Quick Settings installed?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Igotsanevo4g:
Is clockworkmod 3.0 needed to flash this?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jckeyser:
Negative.

I use 2.5, and I know that a lot of other people do too. To use 2.5, however, you'd have to flash a kernel like DecaFuct 691.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DJB628:
I have quick settings installed
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DJB628:
And just incase Sync is set to on, incase that is your next question, LOL
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonmaloney:
Make sure background data is enabled
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DJB628:
It is and has always been, weird I have a buddy that has the same issue,just to clarify, I get emails and I get the notification sounds and envelope in the top status bar, I simply do not get the unread count
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
HELP I'm in a area that I'm roaming and my calls go straight to voicemail I have went through settings can't find any thing. how do I fix this. My wife's hero has aosp 2.2 and works fine. I'm going to be here for 3 days or more and my kids have to be able to get a hold of me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jckeyser:
I actually had problems with Gmail being pushed in aosp 2.2, but in CM7 I get them every time. Since it is a custom ROM, the only things that I could see as a fix would be to uninstall/reinstall (a cliched method I take for granted too often) and go from there. I love Gmail but the Android interface leaves much to be desired compared to the email capabilities of my old Blackberries, but seeing as how it's not the Facebook app, it really shouldn't have to be slapped around by us so much just to work.

But it is, and the good news for us root users is that it doesn't seem specific to any Android UI.

Hell, it may be as easy as fixing permissions and rebooting your phone. I know brute force has worked for me on more than one occasion.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
As am I. The Gmail app...works fine...unread count and they push right to the phone immediately.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jckeyser:
If you're using the LauncherPro dock are you getting unread SMS counts and NOT GMail?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kevphan08:
Hey everyone,

I looked through the Wiki and tried searching through the forum but couldn't find my answer.

For some reason recently my wifi hasn't been working. I'll connect to my wireless at my apartment and it'll connect, but nothing works. For example when i try to go to the market on my wifi it just times out saying "Network error".

Didn't know if anyone was having trouble with connection to a wifi network but any help would be great.

Please and Thank you in advance.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DJB628:
We thanks anyways, I figured I post it here for the heck of it, was worth a shot, not the end of the world, I still get my emails, LOL
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DJB628:
I have not tried the SMS, I don't care about that, I guess I can check mark that to see if it works
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DJB628:
OK SMS work, but not Gmail
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
im going to the irc to see if i can find anything

Hello all,

I spent most of the day trying to build a circle battery mod for this using the correct GB green color (93D500) and never get it to stick? I have seen a few floating around but I beleive everyone is having the same luck. If anyone has been able to get a flashable .zip circle mod to stick can they please make it in the correct green color? The Ginger Bread green is 93D500 in hex value, I am sure there are others who would like this other than me. If you have a circle mod that is sticking, please PM me and tell me how you built it so that I can fix my mistake...

Thanks in advance!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonmaloney:
mkdir /data/download
chown system:cache /data/download
rm -rf /cache/download
ln -s /cache/download /data/download

Or ditch Firerat's mod.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] systemshock869:
Did the market fix already, everything works except large apps
[Hero CDMA Android Development] systemshock869:
Got an idea that I'm gonna try when I get home. The cache/downloads folder is on the cache partition right? So if I increase the size, I should be able to download larger apps. I'm gonna play around with it and post my findings
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jschill31:
Interesting, I wonder what the deal is? I think it must have something to do with the script update vs. updater? All in all ASOP did a fantastic job, I hope some of the ranting I heard about does not push him away. I have built several roms, most for Android tablets...it sucks when people judge things they don't understand. Let me know if you get any bright ideas.

Cheers
[Hero CDMA Android Development] CrashV2010:
That brings up an interesting point... Doesn't it !!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] realmccoy813:
Yea I had a similar problem but it was sort of intermittent. I happens every time I am restoring my previous apps via google sync. I just cleared all the running then tried the install again and went through. Just a thought!!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cyburke:
if i've installed an updated kernel for my custom 2.1 sense rom i'm running, will flashing to the 2/18 GB give me back the 'stock' kernel for the rom?

or do i need to flash back to the stock kernel - before flashing the 2/18 GB rom?

[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercrapper:
I have been having this problem without firerat's mod. I believe what is happening (at least in my case) is that the dalvik-cache (or something else in the /cache partition) will fluctuate in size. Sometimes there isn't enough space for the new app. I got around the problem bu doing a bind mount to a directory on the ext partition of my sd card. Have not had the problem since (of course I've only installed a couple of apps since doing this). I also used to have this problem with file downloads too (from the browser). It would download, get to 100%, say completed successfully, then Failed. It would finally work the 2nd or 3rd time. I'm thinking it may be the same issue.

EDIT : Just tries download a ROM and no go. I still get a Failed download. Like I said, I have to try 2 or 3 times before it will work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
Good news to report:

It happens that I'm using the 3D version of Google Maps that is enabled when build.prop's ro.opengles.version is set to 131072 (the version that's slow to re-pixelate the screen when you drag the map view). Anyway, after I set the ro.compcache.default to 18, the lag in the map screen update speed is greatly improved! :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
no luck there :mad: cant get any straight answers was told to go back to 2.2. like that is going to help fix my problem or a bug for others :( every time i go in there its a train wreak. i made the mistake when i first started running aosp 2.2 and told my wife to go in there for help.:confused: i was out of town and could not help her. i had never been in there before. my mistake i guess for thinking that a live help link would actually be respect full of others. i have a 26yr old girl 19yr old boy 14yr old girl that i have been teaching how to flash roms and other things. what a shame that they cant use some things that is suppose t to help them learn and be more interested in dev are future. :eek:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercrapper:
How do you know that compcache is actually running? Did you run "free" in terminal emulator? I have tried editing my build.prop, but it does not appear to be working for me.

I don't think my JIT is working either.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stayclean:
Well, it's probably more smart to go back to 2.2 if it's, well, actually working for you and you need your phone as a phone, instead of trying to get help for a problem that probably isn't ROM-specific, or one people haven't run into (therefore no way of being able to even diagnosis it as a problem specific to the ROM, or being able to replicate it and find a workaround, etc).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] drthunder:
I just got 18 hours battery life using my phone quite a bit! Thanks again AOSP.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] CrashV2010:
You might just want to RUU and go back to 2.1 stock, if you are having this much in proplems..... GO and search... It's like google.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
i do agree with going back to 2.2 if there is no solution. but dang lets try.

and for good news i drove 4hrs using sprint nav and im on alltel thanks to liquids removed apks with my Bluetooth on listening to nav so my wife could listen to radio. this is a great rom.

i dont believe its the radio or prl when my wifes hero running aosp 2.2 has the same radio and prl as my hero 2.3

[Hero CDMA Android Development] bks0101:
Not that I'm recommending this or anything, but thought the experience was worth sharing. As I've progressed thru the various builds of this ROM, I've seen more and more of the "strange" issues like (and including) many of those reported the last several pages. Got tired of chasing a tweak for this, a patch for that, build prop this, kernel that - things were totally out of control. So I decided after flashing God only knows how much crap over the last several months, that it may be best to start over. RUU'd back to .5, re-rooted, did a nandroid of that to give me a Sense image if I need it. Then formatted/wiped everything, installed Firerats @ 130,2, formatted/wiped everything again, and flashed AOSP Froyo. Did a nandroid of that to give me a clean Froyo in case I need it. The formatted/wiped everything again, clean install of Firerats and another format/wipe (forgot to change so I'm still at 130,2), flashed the latest 2/18 GB, and all that strange crap has gone away - did have to do the Market and VVM fix's in the Wiki, but that's it. Although I haven't tried

everything

mentioned the last 10 pages or so, I've not seen any issues with the many that I have tried. Again, not suggesting this and not claiming it's a silver bullet, but it made all of my "strange" stuff go away - phone, GPS, wireless, Bluetooth, video, text, etc, etc, etc is all rock solid and so far has been repeatable over and over and over during my testing.

I have been using PDANet for wired tether for a few weeks now. Always good until the 2/18 build. Now, tethers fine for @ 10 min, then phone locks up. Have to battery pull to get it going.

Anybody know of a way to get the apps you have downloaded to show up in the market? Usually a reboot would do the trick after updating the Rom but seems like a no go with this update
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonmaloney:
This ROM actually supports WIRED tether natively. I would suggest trying that if pdanet is giving you issues.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ccrosno:
Alot of the times it has to do with the refresh of the SD card. If you hadn't rebooted between the time you took the photo and the time you were trying to view it in gallery, it sometimes wont show. I have this issue all the time

Hello,

No worries, I will eventually figure it out...I was just looking for the quick help of the others who are trying as well. Once I get one to stick I will post for all but for me to post it will have to be perfect.:) I realize that there are several out there who will beat me to the punch... I just haven't played with CM7 much so it is like starting over. Those of you who are versed, I think I have nailed the colors down: GB Green 93D500, Yello EDED00, Orange F2C957 and Red FF0000.

Also, clear market data. I think I've narrowed this down to uninstalling apps through apps like uninstaller or titanium backup. I think that screws with the market when it tries to verify your apps.
