Well, I did a nand backup right before installing fr. Then I flashed the mod, restored the nand, flashed the fr boot, and done (then the market fix). Took 10 minutes, tops. Fwiw, I put off doing this mod because it seemed like it was complicated, but it was actually smoother than a fresh install of gb.

You can add me to the list. Converted from DT a2sd to firerats about 3 weeks ago. I always thought it sounded a bit complicated and read about so many users having problems. But its quite simple, and if you READ and know/understand what your doing, you wont encounter the afore-mentioned user-errors

Black Screens / Blank Screens

I just experienced my first issues with black screens on 4/21. I had no issues on 3/26 as I did on previous builds, but they appear to be back.

It started when I clicked on my Mobile Buzz widget to read an article, instead of the widget opening up to a readable size, it opened to a tiny square in the center of the screen smaller than a MicroSd. I removed the widget and then tried to re-add, but the Add Item option did not appear when I long pressed on the home screen. The screen just went blurry. Tried long pressing the call end button to reboot and nothing there either. Wound up pulling the battery.

I did not do a full wipe for 4/21, just wiped cache and dalvik cache 3x each.

IMHO we should have the talk about firerats in that thread.... ill admit all the talk has me convinced to go for it after this post but its kind of nice to stick to rom talk. Not trying to be the thread police.

Oh and by the way is anyone partaking in the xda classes of cut and paste developing?? ;) no reply needed boys just wanted to throw it out there for those that know and would get a good laugh. (Yes I know its not rom talk either but I thought of it while at work after duces post)

Now for rom talk...

While at work I use the lockscreen obviously. I could enter my swipe pass but the pattern wouldn't show up. Reboot fixed it but I've experienced more wonkiness in 4/21 than 3/26.. small and minor but 3/26 ran flawlessly for me. Just wondering if anyone else has seen minor bugs in 4/21 at all? Not a flash over either. I freshed it up.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] dpeeps74:
Wonkiness is a very technical term for "reboot fixes it"

~maybe I set it too high...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] NineInchNails:
Lmao yup it does.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] PhntmParadox:
Speaking of "Wonkiness" do we still need the dewonkificator? I zoned out of this thread for a while because my phone loved one of the early March builds. But now I'm on the latest and greatest 4/21.

Thanks tons, AOSP, for keeping my Hero super.

Peace.

"EWWW . . . someone got Gingerbread all over my Hero!"
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fallonjp:
A reboot definitely fixes the wonkiness but I didn't have any on the previous build. I'm going to start fresh with a full wipe when I have the time and see if the problems still persist. My guess is they won't, but who knows.

Thanks aosp for the great ROM and prolonging the life of my and my wifes phone.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ULoveAriana:
I did a full wipe & sometimes in applications when I press an option the screen either goes black or it goes blurry like someone else said but if I press menu or something it'll show up just fine...its weird but then I reboot & its all good but then after a while it happens again *shrugs* rom still runs real smooth & quick for me though

Makes it easier to keep same mtd and just flash fr-boot after an upgrade instead of constantly changing mtd and having to re-do fr-recovery, yada,yada, yada.........

For those having black screen issues, if you haven't already, try ninja's fix here. In looking at the build.prop in the 4/21 build, aosp still has debug.sf.hw=1 incorporated.

Well it "worked" for most of us, for a while, then it came back. Honestly I think the reboot is what fixed it, and then it just comes back after a while.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Brickster:
Yea, still no luck here with it. Thanks though, it was worth a shot anyways.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
I don't know much, but I do know I incorporated JM's fix as soon as he published it (not because I had a blackscreen problem, but because I didn't want one, lol), and I've never had a blackscreen problem.

Btw, the fix has stuck through every rom update since then.

I learned how to cut and paste in the Army, nothing to see there, and I did indeed get a chuckle out of that jab....well played.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
I think you got lucky, and have just never experienced it. I will say it was BAD back then when the "fix" was suggested, but now I almost never get black/bad screens. I do not have the fix incorporated, since it didn't work, and everything seems faster without it. YMMV.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
Thanks Duce, I'll try life without it, the Surgeon General says you only live once! :)

So I tried a fresh install with a full wipe, I also ran Firerats for the first time at 90 4. I'm having some GPS issues now, can't get a lock whatsoever in Maps, I've downloaded the GPS data from GPS status and nothing. Reboot, still no lock. Just had a random reboot also with GPS running in the status bar but no applications actively using it (or at least not actively on the screen).

Are my mtd partitions ok? Anything else I may be doing worng, or could do to fix this?

If not, I'll just nand back to 3/26 as I had none of these issues on that build.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
In TE, type df -h to check your system size. The results will tell you if your firerat settings are sufficient.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 808Bill:
Don't forget to type "su" first.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fallonjp:
Looks good I think. the only 2 over 80% are /system at 88% and /mnt/sdcard at 80%.

I'm also having an issue opening a lot of apps that I restored using My Backup. They all foece close when I try to open them and if I try to move them to the sdcard I get an error that says Failed to move application. There is not enough sotrage left. Each one that isn't working had been moved to the sdcard when I was running 3/26. Could it be that there is a problem carrying these over to the new build since I just started using firerats also? If so is there a way to fix this without losing app data?

Thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Firerat shouldn't mess with your data. You can check if firerat is causing this issue by re-flashing your recovery (this will blow away firerat settings) and restoring the backup you made before doing the full wipe setup.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vayman:
Not familiar w/ My Backup, but you could always try running "fix_permissions" (w/out quotes) in terminal and see if that fixes your FC's.

And as Bill pointed out, make sure you type su first in terminal. ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fallonjp:
It's fixing 116 permissions, is that normal?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vayman:
Yes, just let it run. It may take a while and make sure you keep the screen awake during the entire process. ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mk2munky:
I've been getting a lot of FC's lately also. Some apps will open and run partway and quit. Others will quit when I try to navigate to a different part of them (Facebook). I've run fix permissions via recovery and ROM Manager several times to no avail and I've also re-installed the apps. Not sure what the issue could be.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stayclean:
Facebook FCs are a known issue, check the comments for it on the Market and elsewhere on the internet. What other apps do that? The XDA Premium one does it randomly as well.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mk2munky:
I was getting it with Lookout, but I think a re-install fixed that. Redbox opens up, starts to load the list of movies, and then force closes. Those are the only ones I can think of. Didn't realize Facebook was global and not exclusive to this ROM; with all the other force closes I had been getting I'd figured it might have been something with the ROM.

Actually both. I had CWM 2.5.0.7 and for the life of me could not get CWM 3 or higher. I had go back to amon ra to partition the sd for data2ext.

It was big pain to back everything up and push stuff back to the sd and reinstall all my apps. Is there much benefit ditching data2ext to go to firerats? Have a class 6 16gb sd.

Sorry for being kinda noobish, I've had apps2sd since last summer and just now am I trying something new.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Well you said data 2 ext was sucky, so I guess there is a benefit? Firerat does not have a speed benefit where data 2 ext is supposed to. It does increase internal storage but bit sad much as data 2 ext does. The big benefit I see is that if my sd card fries but all my app are on the device memory I'll be fine. Also I think the general consensus is that firerat is more "stable". Ymmv.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Freeroot:
Alright. I have been saving up these topics for one relatively sizable post so as to not bloat this thread more than it has already been. I realize that some of this are known problems, but they are still issues with the rom and I am trying to do my part in aiding the development.

-I had a reboot with the navigation today and 3 days ago. After about a half hour both times (big surprises!).

-Today something weird happened, after quite a bit of data usage, my phone got so undesirably slow that it wouldn't do anything. A reboot fixed it and I'm thinking of uninstalling some apps that I don't use and wiping cache.

-Today when I opened the app drawer(LPP), the screen went black. I know, you're probably thing "dude, do you have them installed on your sd card?" I us firerats and am trying to keep as many apps as I can manage on my phone cause in my opinion they open faster and my phone is a little snappier that way. A reboot fixed it. Thinking of attempting the same thing proposed in the previous issue (uninstalling some apps and wiping cache).

That being said, I can't even imagine going back to the stock rom and using that. I would miss everything about gingerbread..or more specifically.. da bomb.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Freeroot. The gps and blank screen issue, it's ongoing and intermittent and therefore hard to fix. The data thing, I would suggest turning on purge arrests in cm, and get autokiller set to optimum.

sent from a series of tubes.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Freeroot:
It's going to be a pain, but I'm pretty sure what you have to do is go back to the stock sense rom and send and receive a few messages (id update everything while you're there) and then come back. after that, it should work like a dream. That was the solution from a few hundred pages ago at least..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Freeroot:
I've got purge on and I've got autokiller set to strict (one up from optimum). would you suggest moving to optimum?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
For me adw ex seems to like a lower setting, it's weird. Also maybe try jit off?

EDIT: ok I goofed, strict was too high for me, but after I had better success I changed the values to 50 60 70 and thats been good for a while now.

I've always had jit off. I lowered the autokiller to optimum and that seems to have done the trick. I'll reboot and wipe cache aswell. I use launcher pro plus and I'm sure adw ex and lpp have the same deal going. could lowering the oom value of the launcher change that? or would it have android kill something else that would be equally important?
