Thanks, I'll work on that later today, sorry. I'm usually really good about reading, I am having a little ADD action today, couldn't focus reading the last few pages of the thread. :-( I should've seen it, oh well. Next time, oh yes.... next time I will notice. Jeez... the immediate prior post... oh, you know what? I took about 15 minutes to post that, so it wasn't up before I posted mine. Ok, I feel less like an idiot now. Thanks again, though.

Well played sir, well played.

Thank you for making my Hero better than ever! Have a beer!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercado79:
hi all. just thought i'd check in for the last time and say thanks for the memories! :)

today is the last day of the free buy back program at best buy. that, coupled with the fact that the premier yearly upgrades end in about a month, led me to decide to upgrade to the evo. i held off a long time, but... i'm not going to jump on the sprint arrive (wm7) and i don't see sprint launching any dual-cores between now and april 1.

anyway, i'm sure i'll check back and see what kinds of great roms are being cooked up here in the future. thank you aosp, and thanks to everyone else in these forums, for everything.

-m
[Hero CDMA Android Development] RVDigital:
Maybe I'm wrong (please chime in if I am), but I think you have to purchase the buy back program at the time you purchased your equipment. Unless your Hero is only a couple weeks old (Buy Back started Superbowl Sunday), I don't understand how you qualify.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] horseinthehouse:
im sure hes saying he wants to have the buyback avaliable to use for when he sells his evo (when a dual core finally comes out). ive considered doing the same thing but just couldnt pull the trigger.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] CrashV2010:
NO NO... Best buy has a buy back and the sprint has the buy back... Sprint is on going till the end of march..... Sunday paper to hard to read these days or what, lol !!!! My upgrade is coming up in march so. I will be moving to a SHifty...

On that note... This is making the Heroes rock hard solid till then.. Great job Aosp !!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stayclean:
Is the "buy back" even remotely worth going that route instead of selling it on Craigslist/eBay/just keeping it? Seems like they would give you barely anything for a Hero.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] CrashV2010:
No the buy back in best buy isn't... The one through Sprint is... Do it at the store and it's right there, no other sending stuff in..... Aosp, love this rom...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] harpstar:

did someone say something about an updated gapps ?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Correct, you cannot use the stock usb tethering with a mac. If you want usb tether, you have to use PDAnet. However, I was using PDAnet until recently when, after a little nudging in this thread, I decided to give wireless tether another go. However, there's a little trick on a mac that worked for me. The following is not my work, but from a different forum (and, again, I forgot to write down the author for proper credit . . . damn memory).

1) Make sure Wireless Tether is NOT running

2) Inside the app press the menu button and Settings to access the settings

3) Change the SSID to "AndroidTether?", and Channel to 11 (Any SSID and Channel should work but I want to keep these instructions simple and easier to follow. I suggest you try these settings first just to see if it works.)

4) Go onto your mac and select the Airport icon from your menu bar and click "Create Network..."

5) Set the Name to "AndroidTether" and the Channel to 11 (make sure that "Require Password" is unchecked). Your airport icon on your menu bar should now be solid grey with a little computer inside it.

6) On your phone go back to the main screen of the app and turn on Wireless Tether (by clicking the large green wifi symbol)

7) Enjoy your tethered internet access!

This method has never failed me. I use channel 10 because it seems to work better than 11. The wireless setup is 10x faster for me. YMMV.

Take a minute and read through UOT Kitchen's material. Under the "Pickup" tab, you will find the following:

WORKAROUND for recovery error (Status 0):

1. unzip your rom and find META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary file

2. put this file in UOT zip (overriding UOT's file)

This should solve the issue.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] CrashV2010:
just use 7zip and open zips up to move meta around....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vinnypel2ella:
Good to gooo!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Correct. Zipeg works great for mac, too.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
@24601

I just start wireless tether and choose the wifi network and I'm in.

edit:

Thanks for this too, been looking for something like 7zip for the mac for a bit too.

edit again:

Can't see how to delete things out of the zip in Zipeg though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] picklerick:
I must be stupid cause every time I use UOT and flash the zip I end up with a black home screen and then the phone locks up but I do see the batt mod before it locks up :) I end up having to push the original files back.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
For whatever reason, when I tried that, I could not get a connection. That's when I went searching and discovered the method posted earlier. Some may not need it, but if you are having issues connecting, try the create ad-hoc network method.

To pull files out of the zip, I have to unzip (extract all) the entire zip, then delete (or add) files, then compress using mac's built in file compression. As long as I use an edify MetaInf folder, I have never had problems flashing.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
I am also a Mac user. Wireless Tether just worked right away for me too. No tweaks needed.

I use Springy to do my ROM edits and Battery Mods. Works like a dream. :)

Guys if I want to install the 3D Gallery from the previous version Rom, do I have to uninstall the 2 D version first,??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] awesomginger:
Me too, it worked right away, no troubles.

No. You'll just have two galleries. But if you do uninstall the 2D is actually called like camera 2.x.x.x

Thanks, done and uninstalled the 2 D one
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gadgetcraze:
Everything works good and the rom is real snappy. The only issue i have is that my data would switch on automatically at times. Usually happens when I switch off wifi. Maybe some syncing or updating is interrupted that triggers the data toggle for the sake of completion.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DJB628:
I noticed also in the previous release there is a Pacman APK, is that the Pacman game?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stayclean:
It's the gapp installer when you sign into your Google account.

Another confirmation that GPS is fixed. I was one of those who had continuing issues with GPS even with the 2/21 ROM and the libgps.so file swap. Flashed the 2/25 build and all GPS problems have disappeared. Thank you AOSP and any others responsible! :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cmccracken:
EasyTether Pro works very well for me using USB Tethering with both my Windows and Mac computers. There is a free trial version available in the Market to test out before buying. The only limitation is that https does not work with the trial version.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cmccracken:
I spoke too soon about my success with GPS. Since upgrading to 2/25, I've had three crash/reboots. Each time, it was while actively using the GPS for an extended period of time (>30m). Each has been a different GPS app (GPS Status, Google Nav, CoPilot Live), and each time the symptoms were the same. The app would say that the GPS signal was lost, the phone would lock up (completely responsive to ANY input), and then about 30s later it would just reboot on its own. Everything would work fine following the reboot. After the second crash, I completely wiped and reflashed my phone, and still had the problem again today on a fresh install.

The first time it happened, I happened to have my phone connected to ADB running a logcat, and captured the crash. It crashed on libdvm.so, or the Dalvik VM (I posted the crash dump earlier in this thread and didn't get any replies about it). I don't know what's causing this, but I'd really like to track it down. While the GPS works for short-term location apps, it is really not usable for navigation when it occasionally crashes your phone after using it for awhile.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Mine has always rebooted on any ROM (CM 6, aosp's FroYo builds, etc) after the initial 30-40 minutes, but once it reboots and I turn Google Nav back on, it will run until I shut it off. Don't know why, just always has. I just say it's a quirk on my phone and expect it ;) Though it is strange that it will run as long as I want after that initial reboot.

Widgets Crash

Every time I reboot the widgets on my pages are unable to load and I have to reinstall them, This rom is great but the widget thing is annoying.

Thanks ASOP

AccuBatt Pngs

To all who have PMed me for the AccuBatt, I am not publicly posting it anymore.

I was the one who told 24601 I'd rather teach you how to fish than simply give you fish...You all know the saying, "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime"...so I'm gonna teach ya all how to fish ;)

Here's how to make your own, and have it flash right when you initially flash the ROM

1) Download the attached file.

2) Extract it.

3) Pull your framework-res.apk form your ROM you downloaded.

4) Open it, but DO NOT extract it (it will open as a zip...an apk is a zip in disguise).

5) Navigate to the drawable-mdpi folder (/res/drawable-mdpi)

6) take all the AccuBatt pngs and drag them into the folder, replacing them with no compression, etc.

7) close it up

8) take the edited framework-res.apk and replace the one in the ROM

9) Close up the ROM, and it's complete. A whole ROM, that includes the AccuBatt mod that will flash right along with everything else.

10) Flash, and hope ya don't bootloop ;)

Couple tips:

- make a nandroid first beause you may bootloop your first few tries

- make a copy of the ROM so you don't have to redownload if something goes wrong

- The key is to NOT extract anything from the ROM, just open the zip

- I use a Mac exclusively and use Springy (Not free, but very good) to open the zips without extracting. 7zip is a good one on PC

- The method above will work for any battery mod, you just need to pngs...so grab them from one of the prior mods if you want, say Circle, AndroidGuy, Gauge, etc

- Notice the other files in the drawable-mdpi folder...this is where theming begins;)

Happy fishing :)

*EDIT* I uploaded the AndroidGuy and Circle pngs as well.

Mine rebooted twice today, each time after about 30 minutes of operation, during my mountain bike ride. I was recording the ride with MyTracks and listening to tunes on PowerAMP.

If it's relevant, I use a2sd and was running with JIT enabled. I run SetCPU at 614/245 screen on, 345/245 screen off, ondemand. After I got back home, I disabled jit and rebooted after wiping cache and Dalvik. I haven't had a chance to try any GPS apps since removing JIT.

I was previously running the 2/21 rom with no such problem. I skipped 2/22 and flashed 2/25 straight from 2/21 after a complete wipe, so everything is from a clean slate with this 2/25 build.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] picklerick:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonmaloney:
I'm getting hard reboots when making a phone call, but only right after booting the phone. Anyone else?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] genuser:
Running the 2/22 and it is outstanding!!! Got two issues, they may be related. Anyone else have experienced or know how to resolve:

1) I went up north and got an international roaming warning when Canada was still many hours away. I enabled international roaming and data worked fine, but it appears this ROM is confusing roaming and international roaming.

2) I have an Airave in my house and the phone doesn't appear to be connecting to it either.

I looked through the change log and didn't see any work in this area that would lead me to believe that flashing the 2/25 is going to resolve.

Any help?

[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercado79:
you're spot on horse. i was close, and finally pulled the trigger when i remembered i had some best buy giftcards lying around and a reward zone credit that would be expiring soon.

sorry, this is really not going help anyone right now (though maybe if you order online before midnight). crash, what you're describing is similar to the recycling / trade-in program. for the evo, sprint would give you about $135 right now. best buy's NEW buy back program costs $70. in exchange, best buy will give you 50% back if you return the phone within the first 6 months of buying a phone. 40% in months 6 through 12, etc. that money is based on the retail price of the phone. the evo's retail price is $600 right now. so, if i return it between now and september (count doesn't start until after 31 days), i'd get $300. much better than sprint's "buy back". also, i'd still have the option of seeing what the evo was going for on ebay.

either way, not so sure i'd pay $70 for the possibility of returning it at best buy, but... it's free until today. sorry for the late response guys!!

Launcher Pro Plus is BUGGY!

Ever since moving to 2.3, I can't get launcher pro plus to play nice with my phone. It is laggy when switching between windows or opening the app drawer, and it freezes/force-closes often. Or if I'm coming out from deep within an app, it just shuts down and all my widgets have to reload. I've cleared the data and rebuilt my set-up, but that didn't help. I've also tried the "lock home in memory" setting that people recommended, but that didn't seem to help.

Is anyone else having these problems? Does anyone have any advice?

Thanks in advance!

[Hero CDMA Android Development] BJex:
I am using launcher pro and it is running awesome! I have never had any slowness with it. If you want to send me what your settings are, I can compare them with mine to see if I can help.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
What I did was teach everyone who reads that how to start theming with an initial battery mod. What that will do is continue things and open it up to more people to be creative. We will have more mods and more things come out. I'm not posting them anymore due to lack of time and because I am moving on from the Hero to the Epic. So...I do hope aosp takes the same approach when he moves on, but ROM deving is harder than theming. ;)

[Hero CDMA Android Development] BJex:
Try locking home app in cm settings and not launcher pro. I also have surface dithering enabled, JIT and lock messaging app in memory.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Macanage:
Obviously would start with wiping everything, clean install and may be reformatting sd card. If you have done that.

Try Zeam and see if that helps with the lag in the launcher. I was using adw and Zeam seems to be alot better. Freezes/FC sounds like data2ext issues. If you are, I would move to Firerats and see if that clears anything up. JIT on or off? Min, Max Cpu setting and what govenor? Stock kernel or something else?

People getting the nav/large ram app reboots, are you using jit? This is a loose theory, but try turning it off and run some tests, see if that fixes it. I'm curious.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:
I'm curious, is anyone else getting system r/w access, or Wi-Fi problems while using 2/25 version of this ROM? I noticed that all is good until I try to open up Wireless Tether. I've wiped multiple times and did a clean install and when I open Wireless Tether, my phone can't system r/w, or connect to Wi-Fi. I've tried fresh install with Firerat's updated Superuser, with Firerat's no updated Superuser, no Firerat's updated Superuser, no Firerat's no updated Superuser. Its probably something to do with Wireless Tether, but that app has been fine with this ROM since December. I'd appreciate any help, thanks in advance.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
Haven't seen this posted yet, but in the 2/25 rom there's an option in CM settings to always show the battery percentage in the status bar! :cool:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
There's a setting in Wireless & networks > Wi-fi settings > Menu > Advanced > Wi-fi sleep policy. That setting specifies when to automatically switch from Wi-fi to mobile data. You probably have yours set to "Never". The "Never" option means that whenever you have mobile data enabled and you turn on wi-fi, mobile data automatically disables...but when you turn wi-fi off, mobile data is re-enabled (if it was enabled to start with).
