As always big up to aosp for the rom

not trying to thread jack just voicing an opinion

some of do go and look at pages upon pages for help. then when we ask questions and get stupid replies.

it's also funny how certain people are allowed to get away with meaingless replies and some aren't on this (and other) threads.

You guys are all right and all wrong. What I do know is you've all contributed to many wasted pages in this forum today and if I weren't such a noob I'd tell you all to move along....oh wait I just did. But on the plus side we're closer to post 20,000 now.

That said, thank you aosp! I am loving this Rom and loving my Hero again. I probably don't use it for as much as most people on here do, but the fact that my phone is super smooth at the basic tasks like swiping screens, opening and closing different tasks and settings, and has considerably less dialer lag makes me much happier with my year old purchase.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
Now that was funny- and your opinion. I've never tried but because I have an addictive personality, I might like it too much. That's what my Mom told me to say.

Downloaded rc3 and I just can't bring myself to flash it. Maybe a new boot animation instead? Time to re-up.

My friend bought a new battery for his Evo and this rom still kicks its...is there an eta for when nobody will expect an eta? Sorry had to. It's been a long day (and still at 64% batt. Jit disabled.

Just an FYI for those interested in updating PRL while roaming. It doesn't work. I got the "The number you are trying to reach....." message.

Just wiped EVERYTHING, including the SD card. Newest rom 3/26 flashed and works great. Just wish I could figure out my 3G connection issue (same on all roms, even Sense). Get data long enough to load Google, then loose it. Some areas it stays connected. I am of course roaming everywhere in FL.

Thanks for the great work AOSP. Very smooth rom.

Could someone on Cellular South look up their PRL version and post? I am on 10004, trying to figure out if an update might fix my roaming data issue.

Anyone know what the latest prl is ??? I had to ruu yesterday and I updated while I was stock to 60677

So I'm not sure if its been announced or if I'm the one who's late. Another thing can any one tell me how would I change my default font size??? I use spare parts on large font but once the phone rotates it reverts back. So I'm looking for a way to change the default size bigger. I think its threw the build prop but I'm not sure. So can any one shed some light on this for me. Also how would I predetermine the size before I changed it??? I like the size spare parts puts the font at when I select large but I don't know of a way to tell what size that is. I wear glasses and the stock font size has me staring at the screen like I'm trying to figure out what's on it. So any knowledge would be appreciated thanks.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
For larger you can change the dpi in build.prop to something larger than the 160 that is standard. Try multiples of 20 maybe so 180 or something. This will basically change the display density making everything larger, probably something you should do as you are having issues seeing it. Personally I put mine down to 140 to get more information on the screen, less scrolling too. There is no preview, just change it and reboot and see if you like it. Once you find a number you like, you will just have to remember it and change it each time you flash a new rom.

look for this line

ro.sf.lcd_density = 160
[Hero CDMA Android Development] trip187:
You can change the screen density in the build.prop file. Default value is 160. Choose a higher numbed to enlarge or a smaller number to make smaller. Its really more like changing the resolution though but it will make the words bigger. Try 170 or 180 and see if that's what your looking for. You can always change it back.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jneg123:
I have to add to this the Nandroid backup step. Also, before wiping anything, use Titanium Backup to backup programs and voicemail, and SMS and Call Log backup to back up that info as well.

Root>Install Recovery>Nandroid>Wipe>Flash

Also, Orange, since you've never done this before, make sure to read, reread, and then reread again all the steps outlined in the readme.

I don't know of one, but I'm guessing that it can be done as I've seen people change all the fonts on the phone, don't see why it couldn't be changed to one that is larger.

i really love this rom.. been using it for awhile.

the 3/26 build still seems to suffer from the GPS reboot issue. i'll be driving, with google nav on, and it will just randomly reboot my device -- usually after ~20 mins or so.

previously i was running something like 3/2, not sure, and that was pretty solid.

anyone else experience this GPS reboot still? solution?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cyburke:
as a secondary reply, something i just remembered actually... the other troubling issue is when it says 'Searching for GPS' and completely locks the device. this will most often require a battery pull to resolve.

its very frustrating as i wish i knew the resolution!

If the spare parts trick doesn't cut it then I will have to do it that way. Thanks. Is there a way that you know of to change it post flash if I end up taking the build prop route. I mean can I just keep one edited build prop if I stay on one specific rom and just make a flashable zip to apply before I boot up a new rom??? Or is build prop specific to each rom release even though it maybe the same rom??? Hope I'm asking my question correctly. I'm just trying to find the method that would be quickest. Thanks

At one time in Themes section there were different font packs posted. You could unzip those and push them into /system/font replacing the ttf files that are there. Someone may have even written a PC program that would push different fonts for you.

That may be your best bet to get font size to be increased.

Well, kids, I'm going on the fourth straight day of running JIT, and I'm getting a little jumpy because I keep expecting the phone to lock up or spill its guts in my hand or something, but it just keeps ticking along like it was born doing it ... it's kinda spooky, because I've never had JIT behave itself for even a single day until now!

Not sure what you want to look at but you might try "Network Info II" app from the market.

Lol I was expecting the same. But all is well here also. Not one fc or black screen (incoming). Still occasionally get a black scrolling screen but a reboot fixes that.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
When I'm hung in a bootloop, I'll plug the phone into the computer and do an "adb reboot" ... that will break the phone out of the bootloop, and will restart the boot sequence ... sometimes a simple reboot is sufficient to bring the phone to a good boot.

If that results in yet another bootloop, then I'll do an "adb reboot recovery", which will break the phone out of the bootloop and bring me to the phone's recovery screen, where I'm free to do whatever subsequent wipes or flashes I care to try after that.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
The following is the list I follow when installing a new ROM or Nandroid. I've used it on both the original GB Alpha and v0.1.2 with no problems. WARNING: This is cobbled together from the OP and 2-3 posts in the firerats thread. If any doubt, go back to firerat's thread and follow the steps in the OP to the exact letter.

FireRat Instructions whenever installing new ROM or Nandroid backup:

1.	Change mtdpartmap.txt file to whatever size you need. (For AOSP GB Alpha, you need at least 120 4 and preferably 125 4.)

2.	Boot into Recovery using CWM

3.	Nandroid Backup (As someone so eloquently put it, "Not necessary, but you're a moron if you don't.")

4.	Partitions Menu:

a. Format Boot

b. Format System

c. Format Data

d. Format Cache

5.	Advanced Menu > Wipe Dalvik Cache

6.	Flash FR-recovery-v1.5.3-CustomMTD_S.zip

7.	Partitions Menu:

a. Format Boot

b. Format System

c. Format Data

d. Format Cache

8.	Advanced Menu > Wipe Dalvik Cache

9.	Advanced Menu > Reboot Recovery

10.	Partitions Menu:

a. Format Boot

b. Format System

c. Format Data

d. Format Cache

11.	Advanced Menu > Wipe Dalvik Cache

12.	Flash ROM of choice; or Flash Nandroid Backup

13.	{optional} Flash Kernel (if using special kernel)

14.	{optional} Flash Battery Tweak (if using a tweak)

15.	{optional} Flash Gapps (if you need Gapps for new ROM)

16.	Flash FR-boot-v1.5.3-CustomMTD_S.zip [Important, must do this or won’t boot.]

17.	Reboot

If you're Gapps aren't showing you may not have allocated enough memory for them. Try moving your settings to 150 4 and then follow the instructions from #1 to the end. Anytime you change your memory settings you have to go back to the beginning of firerat setup in order for the change to take effect, e.g., you must re-flash FR-recovery-v1.5.3-CustomMTD_S.zip and the steps thereafter for the changes to stick (found this out the hard way, ugh).

Edit: Sorry, cleaned up my indenting.

Tried multiple times formatting everything with same results.

What about your voice search right after flash? Mine wouldn't start up completely so uninstall and install from market to get it to work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] EmperorX:
Has anyone experienced the following:

You go to make a nandroid in CWM and it freezes at some point. The first time this happened to me it froze on the data section, the 2nd time it happened it froze on the system section. After this, you CAN NOT boot. It goes from the HTC logo, restarts... then goes back to CWM.

This has happened to me twice tonight. The first time while trying to make a nandroid for this rom, the second time after trying to Nandroid from the most recent AOSP 2.2 build. Not being able to make a nandroid backup is especially unnerving if you don't have any....

Edit: This results in having to do a completely fresh install and reconfiguration. None of which can be nandroided... ugh

I have been running JIT since yesterday. I did get a reboot while running nav but that was only after running with the screen off. Without JIT, screen ooff nav would reboot inside of 5 minutes. With JIT running yesterday, it ran w/screen off for a good 10-15 minutes. Screen on has been working flawlessly but I have not run for more than about 30 mins.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] poashll:
Here is one more.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wwejr4540:
Thank you oldjackbob!

Based on your post #11167, I turned on JIT in 3/26 and have also had no problems. I had Google-NAV on for more than 90 minutes yesterday without issues, a new record for me. There were even 2 phone calls in that period which always caused a reboot before. (Note: I installed 3/26 and turned on JIT simultaneously so I can't compare to previous ROMs exactly, but I had GPS reboot issues on all previous versions that I tried).

I use 4 programs that use GPS; G-NAV, G-Maps, MyTracks and GaiaGPS(uses some code from MyTracks). Only MyTracks maintains a GPS lock when the screen turns off. All the others report "Searching for GPS" when the screen is turned on. Based on your earlier comments, I think I will give Maverick a try. I really like MyTracks, but would like off-line maps for hiking.

And, thank you again AOSP for this great ROM!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] NineInchNails:
Someone else reported jit on and no GPS reboot for over an hour I believe. Not going very far today so I can't test yet. Anyone else testing please share your results later?

Has anyone else seen this, or hopefully has a fix?

[Hero CDMA Android Development] NineInchNails:
Do you use setcpu or have a screen off profile? IMO it could be caused by your CPU being set too low for GPS to be on in your screen off setting. From rangers previous posts I don't even use a screen off profile but I do use setcpu which he doesn't.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] genuser:
Tethering is very demanding. Not sure theres much you can do.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
it's a single digit edit in build prop and they dev may or may not choose to make changes to build prop so you are better off editing it after flashing. you can always adb pull and push it if you want to do it before a reboot or you can edit it inside the zip if you have the right software to do that

if it's wireless tether, plug the phone into an ac outlet instead of computer's usb, wireless tether uses the battery faster than you can charge it on computer usb, but ac usb should be fine.
