How do I type "gpsclrx" when I can only input numbers, and not letters, into the number field?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KimballGCole:
Sounds like the same problem I had; did you flash the google apps file?

I had that problem as well, but my fix was to revert to CM 2.5 and flash the Deca 691 kernel, which is becoming my method of choice.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Tibedabeeto:
That is what the numbers mean when typing out ##4772579#. Just need your msl code after inputting that.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] htchero789:
Sorry if this has been asked before but my my market has been force closing and some other apps, im using the latest rom, data2ext4, decas batt tweak, decas kernel,and the most recent gapps. Is there a fix? it downloaded all my apps just fine when I flashed the new rom so im not sure what happened. I tried clearing the cache but there is nothing there and reinstalled gapps but its still doing the same thing any help would be appeciated thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jckeyser:
I have been fixing force closes by using Fix Permissions from ROM Manager. I found that I had to set the screen timeout to 10 plus minutes to keep it on the screen.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stayclean:
Have you tried the gapps from the first post?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Long press in any text box. Select input method, choose android keyboard, then repeat, and choose swype keyboard. You have to do this anytime you flash a new rom. Sometimes I've also had to run the installer again.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jdlumley:
My experience with this ROM has been great! I'm getting great performance and battery life and thought I'd share with current setup with everyone. This setup flies for me! No lag and rarely and FCs. My only complaint is that GPS drops. Thanks for the great ROM!

The screenshots are with moderate use. (Google/Facebook syncing, Locale checking location, playing games, surfing web, etc...)

hey ranger, will this work with the newest update?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] htchero789:
I did that but it keeps force closing and quadrant app is also doing the same thing
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Mine says 2/16, which comes from the build prop, which I bet you edited.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Loosenuts:
No go here for GPS with 2/16. Seems a bit worse actually, in maps alone it would jump to numerous other locations and in Google navigation it lost GPS signal quicker than previous ver. I do however like the brighter yellow-green. I'm not giving up yet.

Ok i think i foud a solution i just went to settings>applications>manage apps> market then i went to uninstall update then went back to check if it worked and it did and for the other apps that were force closing i just reinstalled them and everything seems back to normal
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
I have an "android", what is this app you're talking about? It's an app right?

I see 24601 told you the blue box fix, but what other kb problems do you have?

My gps is MUCH better on 02/16. All this gps rahrah from the last few days, I still think it's from tweaks like firerats and data2ext, etc. Stock rom/kernel, gapps in /system, mine locks faster and holds fine. Also, what brighter color? I'm using the androidian theme which is ALL green, but the color is the same as far as I can see.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jckeyser:
Sometimes it won't be all Swypey, it'll just let me tap the letters.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercado79:
As for Swype, I usually have to reinstall after an update and do the input type swap after every reboot. Even by doing this, the keyboard occasionally switches to all caps and then I have to toggle it off (often after I'd already typed out a few words). Frustrating, for sure, but not a huge deal.

Not sure how Firerats would do anything to GPS. All you're doing is changing the partition sizes, not touching the radios or system apps themselves. I think the ##gpsclrx# fix Tibedabeeto suggested sounds like it might work (haven't tried it yet). Also, I had no problems with GPS for a while and then it started acting up. Strange.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Loosenuts:
Lucky you for GPS. yes im using androidian as well and my battery, signal bar, 3G, predicted text and default icons are all a brighter green like there's more yellow in them, its all good. Seriously I could care less about GPS as I never expected to move from where I was living the past few years but ever since 2/10 I am now living in Houston so GPS comes in handy. With the previous 2/10 version I would have to toggle GPS off and on while driving to regain gps signal using Google Nav. I'd say over a 30-40 mile commute I would have to toggle 5-6 times. I'm not one to complain about this as this is third party software we choose to run on our own knowing other people are developing this to make for a better experience when we us our phones so I'm just here to give feedback. As far as my setup yea I realized I should have posted that in my last post. No firerats partition or data2ext here. No custom kernels or CPU/battery tweaks either. Just CWM 3.0.0.5 and aospCMod.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
try uninstall swype, run the installer from scratch, like mercado (look down)

I'm not sure either, but mine's fine, on stock. Some firerat folks been saying the cache is too small and upping it to 12 or higher seems to "fix" gps, who knows.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
everything error. YOU FIX NOW!

Mem available

I was just poking around.

Under Manage applications I'm showing 79MB free (of 190).

Under Phone info I'm showing 34MB/190 free.

What gives? I have been having some errors in updating apps sometimes. Getting "Not enough memory".

This has not been a huge problem, but I noticed it and thought I might bring it to someone's attention. Maybe it could clue in on a solution for someone's problem.

I'm on the 2/16, 1/20 gapps, and just the circle battery mod.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercrapper:
Are you using the stock kernel? I'm pretty sure swype is somehow tied to the kernel version. When I was using CM6.x, swype would work fine as long as I stayed with the stock kernel, but once I flashed any Deca's kernel, I would get an alert saying that swype was built for another device and it would hve limited funcationlity (ie no swyping, only tapping).

Since switching t0 AOSP and keeping with the stock kernel, I have not had any problem with swype (even after flashing a new daily)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
reboot, if that doesnt work, usually incorrect mem readings are due to a lack of wiping, it leaves dingleberries.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] andythegreenguy:
I think, those are two different things... the later is memory info, whereas the prior the storage.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
Changing cache size did NOT help gps here.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] stayclean:
Phone info doesn't show you how much storage space you have.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
yes I'm on stock, mine's fine, I was just telling him... Anyway, the wrong device error was fixable by re-running the installer when I used to have deca's kernels. I do have to reselect swype every new rom, sometimes after reboot, but it works like butter.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wild1z:
LMAO, those dingleberries can really mess some stuff up. Put em in a bowl of water, if they float it's your SD card. :)

I am using RA-heroc-1.6.2 are there known problems with that recovery?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] too.many.imails@gmail.com:
well, act stupid, then you'll be treated stupid.

just like stupid questions get answered with stupid answers. treat people how you want to be treated. freaking out doesn't help any of us. you didn't specify anything other than you were bootlooping and that you wanted a change-log.

other people asked for help, and specified what they were using, what they did, and what went wrong... and help they got...

i love to help people, but i dont like people, who especially on a forum, act like a crackhead and demand help, like there is a whole website on how to get around bootloops, i know you flashed the alpha edition of aosp gb and this is no different... dont be stupid. thats annoying. -_-
[Hero CDMA Android Development] D3FAULT:
Hm, I was having boot loops, so I decided to be a rebel and flash gapps before I fully booted the first time. Idk if it will mess anything else up, but it DID get me past the android boot screen boot loop. :)

GB .1 running

I'm running on GB.1, and find it is more stable, but you will not see everything working. Still no camera, sensors, or GPS. Not on Sprint, so I can't tell you about VMM.

Thanks again for all the hard work AOSP. The install with new GAPPS went much smoother, although for those having problems, go back and re-read. Same methods work!

Merry Christmas All!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] too.many.imails@gmail.com:
i dont think there is any problem with that recovery, but seems to have more problems with this ROM, but people have got it booted using that recovery.

just make sure you are wiping or formatting everything boot, system, data, cache, dalvik, and re-try flashing... we'll get you booted, dont worry :) it might take a few times though...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mjodotcom:
Hehe thanks if I get stuck again I'll try the battery pull/gapps trick =)

[Hero CDMA Android Development] too.many.imails@gmail.com:
thats the trick, lol, to make sure everything gets wiped/formatted correctly

[Hero CDMA Android Development] PhntmParadox:
Bonus, thanks.

I was SHOCKED to learn that I might have dingle-berries!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xDragod:
I noticed that we now have two new types of lockscreens. I don't know if that was there before.

I also noticed that we now have the ability to remap the "Search" button. You can set two different apps for a regular press and a long press.

That's all that I've noticed, though I do think it seems faster. I did just up my VM Heap size, so that could be a contributing factor.

It's looking good. I have no complaints about this rom whatsoever.

Stock Alarm App?

Flashing 2/16 now. One thing that I always liked about Sense was the stock alarm/clock app. Not the widget (I don't care for it), but the actual app that opens on press. I find it to be far more functional than the AOSP one.

Any idea as to how/where I can get it? I'm not even sure if it's possible since I think it's closely tied with the HTC lockscreen.

Many thanks! :)

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jckeyser:
Swype is working great now. Also running the latest SwiftKey Beta which has a new black and green skin and a Rapidfire mode. Having said that, the stock GB KB is fairly buttery to use as well. My only question about third party keyboards on these ROMs:

Do they maintain your custom dictionaries when you flash from, say, 2/10 to 2/16?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vayman:
Somebody correct me if I'm wrong but I think fancy widget has this option. Haven't used it in a while but I remember being able to set applications that open depending on where on you press, I think.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jckeyser:
Beautiful Widgets does. As a matter of fact, they've added a whole lot of new badass improvements.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vayman:
Good to know! I just use the AOSP one.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
None of those are what he's talking about, he's looking for the clock app. I really see no difference between asop and sense though.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
Yes it dose you can set 4 or 5 different apps 1 for clock 1 for date 1 for weather 1 for weather info and more depending on what you have on the widget
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Telgar:
Have flashed 2/16 over the 2/10. Wiped cache and dalvik. Running much smoother and snappier.

Thank you for the continued work in supporting the Hero. Screw sprint's $10 cool (greedy?) tax.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vayman:
Thanks Oostah for clarifying! :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] the john:
This is right. I want the actual app. For a widget, I use FW which opens the AOSP app, but there is an actual difference between that and the Sense one. For one, the sense on has a built in stopwatch and countdown timer. And yes, I know there are separate apps for that but I'd prefer it to be in a single one.

Thanks for the replies though, everyone. Hope this clarifies what I'm looking for.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
Oh yeah, forgot about those, been so long since sense. I use a separate app and I use it about once a year.

Sorry about my prior post, it has been edited b/c after all you were right. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] takmsdsm:
For all of you that are having the GPS issues, the Evo had the same issue when going to 2.3 roms. Doing the ##GPSCLRX# fix on a sense rom fixes the issue completely. From the sounds of it, it works for the Hero too. Forget all other bandaid fixes. Do a nandroid backup, reflash a sense rom, do the fix (you can get your MSL from an app in the market, cant remember what its called, but its free), and then Nandroid restore.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kingdazy:
I would like to personally thank AOSP (and friends) for the GB experience here, for helping me realize the Heros HW limitations, and for (unintentionality) providing me with the impetus to go get a new phone.

Bye Hero, Hello EVO

catch ya'll on the flip side.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vayman:
What recovery does he have? Also, if not running RA did you follow all the steps in the WIKI? If not try that and see. ;)

All phones are different. Try it stock out of the box and if you don't like it then nandroid and try a different setup. ;) I've always used the stock kernel that aosp includes in the ROM.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] blaccdayz:
Cool man thanks. Yea I figured there wasn't a 100% solid answer. I usually just rock the default also, but I didn't know if there was anything that would give better battery/peformance. I'm not complaining about anything, battery life is solid. Just the phone seems slightly laggy. Nothing I can't live with. By far the best Hero mod out there. Was using CM6 forever.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cuatillo1:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] picklerick:
I don't think JIT is being enabled when checked in the settings, the build.prop always shows it as "dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:fast". If I manually change it to "dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:jit" I see no difference in performance, linpack, or quadrant scores...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stayclean:
You ARE rebooting after checking JIT on, right?

Also quadrant scores are completely useless so don't worry about that.

A rom with SenseUI...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] takmsdsm:
Sense roms are roms based of the stock sprint roms aka roms that use Rosie. The dialer on sense roms have been programmed to access the backend functions of the phone (phone number programming for instance) that stay no matter what rom you put on the phone. Unfortunately when you go to a non sense rom, you can no longer (currently) access those functions, hence the reason you need to flash back.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ROB281:

I know I had Amon_RA at that time..

Is there a trick to this or are they non-compatible. In that case, is there a sense ROM that I can flash that is compatible with CWM ?

Thanks in advance..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ROB281:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
It looks for them in sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/ move it there and you should be good.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kashb91:
i think it doesnt show because of the location of the nandroid. since your using cwm now, all nandroid are stored in a folder called clockword, and then inside another folder(cant tell the name, doing a nandroid). place the sense nandroid there and it should show.

edit; damn aiwetir, your fast.
