im going to give these a try and see how they work for me.. i have never had outstanding battery life, by the end of the day i am always dead.. the only thing that will be different for me will be firerats (i dont use it), i use a2sd instead to free up a little space.. thanks for the stats, hopefully i can see similar results..:cool:

Random reboots...

I just got a second random reboot, since yesterday evening. I observed the following when I got the first one:

1. Bluetooth was on and connected to by headset

2. I had switched off Sync, turned it on and within a few seconds the phone rebooted

Right now, I had my bluetooth on, the phone was locked and it just rebooted.

I am on 03/14 with no firerats running Interactive 176/710 no JIT no Compcache.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cybertimber2007:
Based on your sig, I see you're part of the CM team?

I was going to offer a suggestion to the folks who made the circle battery mods to submit them to the CM team. I've preferred the "battery percentage" in CM over the regular battery icon, but I wonder if the circle battery mod couldn't be another option.

And I really like the looks of RVdigital's battery mod. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=12004365#post12004365

To be clear, that's for all CM supported devices :p

Overall... I will say that I used to be against using CM (when I wanted to flash my first ROM), because I thought it would be slower from the extra options.... but I've found the opposite since aosp has been building from CM, and It makes me very comfortable with CM. (using it on my nook now ;) with you guys would offer SD images though for the nook color, aka encore)

acb issues

Perhaps not the appropriate place to post, but hoping someone can redirect me to a better site. I had to redo my win7 computer. ADB with my hero was doing great before than, but not can't get it to connect. Hero is showing in device manager as USB Device, not as ADB Device and when I run adb devices in cmd I get "'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file".

I placed sdk on root of C, ran sdk manager, reinstalled latest driver into "HTC device" through device manager, tried with and witout HTC Sync, etc. Anyone know what I might be doing wrong?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
+1 on that, hard to think of anything else to wish for. My compcache settings aren't having any effect, but that might be because I've been flashing the recent releases over earlier versions that were running a2sd (after wiping cache and Dalvik) instead of starting fresh.

On further thought, I prolly should just leave compcache alone, because all systems appear to be running fine, and I don't even know what the heck compcache is all about anyway, lol!

I will say that I sure hope aosp never removes the CM ability to jump forward or backward in the song list by using the volume toggle when playing music in screen-off mode. That ability is the single most valuable feature on my phone!

Just want to clarify that I merely "cooked" that mod in the kitchen, I am not responsible for the art. :)

Aosp, I agree. Cmparts is good to have, wallpapers are easily added from gallery, so no need for cm or live wallpapers (does anyone really use live wallpaper?) Personally, I don't use any themes, I love the gb minimalism with the added touch of easy system tweaking that cm parts and dev tools bring. Everything else is just extras I could take or leave.

And thank you for the work you do here.

anyone having issues with GPS on 3/14?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gigermunit:
Yep I use live wallpaper as my clock and calender etc instead of a widget.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
compcache helps with multitasking.

As for stuff to leave in, if I get a vote. The stuff I like is: volume rocker for media, cmparts/settings (all of it), theme chooser, dsp manager, quickoffice, spare parts. I would bet some of those can be added as apps, but some not. I do delete cmstats, wallpapers, live wallpapers, rom manager, fota kill, cm update notify, market apps installer, protips. Hell some of the stuff in there I don't even know what's CM and what's AOSP, lol. That's just my 2 pennies.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Try calibrating your battery also, that should help as well. I haven't yet after flashing this build...still waiting for it to die ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Agreed 100%...though I delete all the things you said to leave in :D So I guess I can't say I agree 100% for me, but I would say leave that stuff in for sure, as many use them.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stayclean:
I just wish someone knew what the black screen issue was all about. Even tried the RC2 and nightlies (with jason's fix and not using Firerat's) and still get it. Ah well.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pstevep:
i have only ever calibrated my battery once.. my only problem with battery calibration is it seems like everytime i start to calibrate my battery aosp comes out with a new version to flash or s0be comes out with an updated kernel (those arent bad things mind you).. but i will attempt that tomorrow hopefully.. and see what happens.. thanks for the recomendation though.:cool:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vayman:
First off, I have to say the freeroot comment is hilarious! :D

Secondly, and please correct me if I'm missing something. If aosp has already incorporated this fix in is it still even necessary? I did use it when you first posted it up until he cooked it in and it was said that it was no longer necessary. :confused:

Anyone having GPS issues that uses this fix, please report if it fixes your issues.

+1 It will be nice to have a choice between vanilla and aospCMod once he drops vanilla on us. :D His version of CM7 IMHO as well is better than the official, but hey I might be a little bias to aosp as I have always used his ROMs exclusively since froyo. :)

As of 3/10 my GPS issues have been non-extistent and seem to be even better in 3/14. :D

+1 on this! :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
funny me too, I stay close to a charger all the time anyway lol. If you REALLY want to calibrate your batt, you sorta have to commit to NO flashing/rebooting for about 2-3 days:eek:, and I just can't handle it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
I wouldn't think so...that was why I originally removed the libgps.so file from the post with the instructions. But this morning I edited that post and re uploaded the file if anyone wanted to attempt it again.

My GPS is working fine, so I really can't test and/or confirm one way or another.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pstevep:
yeah... 2-3 days is way too long for me... i have a charger that travels with most of the time.. and honestly my battery usually lasts just long enough.. but again i am too frequent a flasher :eek: (dont call the authorities) to calibrate properly..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Yeah it's tough...like I said though, that screenie I posted earlier (now at 29 hours 2 minutes) is without a battery calibration. Only reason I thought to calibrate is I think I may land on the 3/14 build for awhile...yeah right...and that will last until the next build :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mattynealo:
on 3/14 I can no longer select music for notifications. It only gives me the systems tones.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
In reading recent posts, GPS appears to be as sporadic as ranger's wardrobe changes :D;):D For some it has gotten better since 3/10, and others it's about the same. For me, it runs fine for about 45 minutes, then I get the searching for gps message and have to turn the gps off and on for it to work again, but only sporadically.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jlengvarsky:
help repost more inforation applied

here is the more information posted from a while back
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Had to change my "wardrobe" to the green Wild jersey in honor of St. Patty's day ;)

Yeah, I say my GPS works...but by works I mean I will lock on right away, then get a reboot after about 15 minutes, but once I am back up then it will go for as long as I let it go...I can live with the single reboot and then a constant lock. Is it a bug? Probably, but not a huge issue for me. I have no locking issues, just that one reboot :confused:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sportsplayer5959:
What is the current kernel version for this rom. Mine says 2.6.29.6 and i just wanted to make sure thay is the latest
[Hero CDMA Android Development] runningslow:
Similar behavior to what I'm seeing.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dedian:
Yep that's the current default kernel

Edit: errr... I think so. Forgot I was in this thread :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
my gps locks well, travels well, no reboots (up to 30min - havent tried further).

HAPPY ST.PATRICK'S DAY EVERYBODY!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
I don't get the 15 minute reboot, just instability after about 45 minutes.

Yes, that is the stock kernel. If you're brave, head over to s0be's thread and you can test a .35 kernel, but it is still a work in progress.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
you don't need to be brave, s0be's kernels are great, they ramp up slower than .29 and no cam, but they work as well, and better in some areas. I think everybody should flash it, realize how amazing a .35 unified kernel for heroc would be, then donate to HIM, cuz that makes the, well, everything, better !!! s0be for king!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 808Bill:
RVdigital's mod was very cool. Using his mod, I think I've gotten it adapted to the 3/14 update. Credit goes to him, and Crysis, and much credit to Pfer10 for his instructions on the Wiki.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] SammyM00782:
Ooo I like that one! I prefer anything that gives me a percentage but I liked the CBM better than CM's stock percentage display. On a side note, my battery has lasted 24% more today with 3/14 then any CM7 since. I'm not really sure why but since I'm using all my data sucking apps and skipped the rest late last night I imagine this was is a ROM tweak. Nice :-)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] SammyM00782:
Another note....has anyone noticed that the LED goes green well before it's done charging? It seems it's alright everywhere else but it throws me off sometimes. This thread grows too f'in big everyday but I've gone back about 40 pages and didn't see anyone else bring that up.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 808Bill:
I believe the LED will turn green when the battery level goes to 90%.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] SammyM00782:
That it does, but in stock land it goes green at 100, which makes more sense if you think about it. If there's a way to change that I'm all ears. I don't know enough of this stuff to go rummaging through system files or build.prop's without some instruction, otherwise I'd do it myself cuz I hate having to ask for help.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stayclean:
LED for all AOSP and AOSP roms turn green at 90%.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cybertimber2007:
Thanks for that :) I installed the earlier one and yea, it glitched the heck out of my rom >_<. Funny screenshot coming :p

Edit: This is what my phone showed on the power screen (with the older build of the Crysis). Screwed up other things, but still funny isn't it?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 808Bill:
LOL. Too funny. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] SammyM00782:
Alright, well if that's the way it is then whatev. It is what it is. I'm technically still new to AOSP so I'm still learning these things. Thanks for clearing that up though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] NineInchNails:
Price we pay for our custom roms. Its up to the dev. Better than what sprint stuck us with for these phones.

Have never falshed CM7 but maybe someone else can answer if CM7 LEDs green at 90%?

Phone is stuck on the android logo. I wiped the cache and Dalvik before I flashed ROM, GAPPS and Kernel in that order. Should I pull the battery?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jckeyser:
Try and flash the ROM with no gapps and no kernel. If that works than go back into recovery and flash gapps.

If it's a completely clean flash (data reset), you're likely to see the bootscreen for what feels like a long time. Could be you just needed to wait a bit longer.

A couple phone questions, about actual phone use.

I liked the predictive aspect of the sense dialer, starting to type in a name and having their contact come up to call, for example. Is there a preferred or recommended dialer out there? I've started using Dialer One I think and it seems to be alright, just looking for other opinions.

Other question, I would like to be able to turn the screen on during a call without hanging up but haven't found the setting to do that. I can leave the screen on longer but I'd still like the option to use the power button. That's all for now, and if those are my biggest worries with this ROM then this is definitely an awesome one, thanks aosp! Federal rebate needs to come so I can buy you a beer or 6!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
There's another app called Go Contacts (by the same team who brought us Go Launcher, Go SMS, etc) that is slowly getting good and does the same thing. There's also one more that does something similar, but I can't for the life of me remember its name (its primary draw was the ability to display international characters)

As far as the turning the screen on goes, don't press "Power", press "Menu". That should solve the problem.

That used to drive me nuts too. The only irritating thing which I wish Android would just fricking add on to the call screen is a button that shuts the screen back off. If I'm on a call and the screen is off, I turn on the phone's screen using "Menu" and then I can't shut the screen back off again. I miss the way my old HTC Titan handled it, dedicated standby/power buttons.

ok i have a question, i have heard that you must have a 3.0.x.x version of clockwork to use GB, i have also heard that 3.0.x.x doesn't support nandroid or the older froyo or eclair roms. SOOO... if i flash to 3.0.x.x and GB, is it possible to flash back to 2.5.x.x and restore my nandroid backup?

[Hero CDMA Android Development] h4kudoshi:
Ok I completely formated EVERYTHING at least 2-3 times (boot, system, data, davlik, etc..) Then installed the 3/14 build, 0120 gapps (i keep getting force close upon rebooting if i use the 0307 gapps), and finally installed the data2ext 4.

After 1st boot I use terminal emulator to finish setting up the data2ext then reboot.

Upon 1st reboot everything is great. Then I let the sync take place. I then reboot a 2nd time and I then start to get many force closes on many different applications, or after opening an app after about 5 seconds it just goes back to the main desktop screen.

Any ideas?

anyone else having issues with Pandora freezing your phone? like, a song will begin skipping, and the phone will completely freeze up - requiring a battery pull.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Start by changing your governor to ondemand when using Pandora. If that doesn't solve the problem, increase your cpu min setting one notch at a time to find the best setting. I currently use interactive gov and 352 and Pandora works fine.

Read the last 300 or so posts didn't see anything about this. I am running 3/14 build in Ms on cellular south. As long as I am in my home area data works perfectly. Went outta state today and as soon as I went roaming off of home network I lost data and haven't had it since with 3/14. I flashed back to sense 2.1 and regained data. Updated prl done a complete wipe / format from clockwork and loaded 3/14 again from a clean load. Still no data while roaming. Anyone else have this problem?

To the Tasker users on the thread, by default GPS Toggle is not function in GB due to a new API call change implemented by Google. The Tasker DEV states that modified ROMs are able to get around this and cites Cyanogen as one of those ROMs. Currently, I am not able to toggle GPS and I am wondering if I am alone.

The DEV states that he will need some build prop info to add an exclusion and I have already submitted the information to him just in case.

More details at the Google Groups Thread Here

Questions:

Can anyone else toggle GPS in Tasker and aospGB?

Some in that thread have said that changing the build prop to reference "Cyanogen" is enough to allow tasker to toggle GPS as the DEV has stated the app is simply looking for the word "Cyanogen".

My question is, what if any adverse effects can I expect from simply adding the word "Cyanogen" to our existing (3/14) build prop line?

(See below)

[Hero CDMA Android Development] 808Bill:
Yes, this ROM has a new launcher.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] RVDigital:
It was removed from 3/14 in aosp's efforts toward Vanilla. Download it from the Market if you'd like.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Brickster:
Mine will toggle but it took like 5 minutes to do so. Further testing, toggle is "iffy" at best.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
I've always just left my GPS on, I never toggle it off. Having GPS toggled on doesn't use any power ... it's apps that use GPS that are what use the power. If you aren't using any GPS apps, then GPS being toggled on won't be any drain on power.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Best sense dialer by FAR that I've found is called contapps, it might even be faster than the sense dialer, I emailed the dev and they said next release would have the option to default to the dialer.

Your other q, and to liquid solstice too, theres a power widget toggle for the dropdown called go to sleep which turns off the screen, and a toggle lock screen button which turns of the lock screen, both I find helpful for tone dial calls, like my work voicemail.

I was able to flash aosp's froyo build as a backup. Gapps would seem to install in rom manager but gmail and phone setup wouldnt work along with at least half of the gapps when android was up. I downloaded gapps from the wiki page, tried fresh downloads of it a couple times and went searching for an older version of gapps with the same results. I formatted boot, etc on down the line besides sd card and wiped dalvik after formatting it too.

I would recommend not using ROM Manager... flash the recovery you want and do all your things from there. ROM manager has been a trouble spot, in the past... since then I have never used it.

I, too, like contapps, but I still have the 2-3 second delay for the dialer to pop up after pressing the talk button.

What vm are you using? I use google voice and there is no delay.

It sounds like you are trying to use the gb gapps on a froyo build? The gapps in the op of this thread are for gb build. I believe the most recent froyo gapps can be found here.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
my gps dropdown toggle works perfectly :confused:

Yes sometimes, but most of the time it's spot on. I think it has something to do with 2.3 sleep policy, but who knows.

:confused: what ROM or gapps are you trying to flash? I assume aospCMod, but you never said, and if you grabbed it from ROM manager my guess it was CM7 nightly or RC2, please clarify. Also see below, ROM manager = fail

I find ROM manager useless, everything it does can be done either in recovery or the emulator, and more reliably imho.
