I think I did that using Rom Manager (Clockwork Mode) and then I went to Recovery and did a Backup.

But I only did that because I was flashing my Hero to Aosp 2.3.3 and it was necessary in case something could happen in the future.

Now I don't know how to reinstall (or is it flash) the Rom again.

Thanks.

X. Hold the power button. Press reboot. It'll bring up reboot, recovery or bootloader. Hit recovery. It'll boot to cw recovery. Go to backup and restore. Restore the dated backup I told you before enabling jit. You'll be good to go.

Not sure why you are deleting that stuff it's pretty small, if you don't like seeing them, use a launcher that lets you hide them, if you need more room, you'd be better off deleting sound files and maybe the bootanimation.

I got "Flash plugin not found" error, but actually I already installed flash player and version is greater than game minimum requirement. Anybody can help look into this? Many thanks.

Thank you.

Do I have to wipe data/cache or anything before I proceed reinstalling the Rom?.

I would like to turn off that effect that goes on the screen when you press the power button to put your phone to sleep. The cry on/off effect.

What about changing the android logo boot up screen. Can it be change to one of your likes or all you can do is just remove it?.

Thanks again!.

No idea what you mean by cry effect but do a search about boot animations. Its been discussed before so I'm not one to repeat. Just make sure it's for the hero. Alot out there that are cool but not everything is gonna work.

There is a thread on how to change the boot screen image to another but I think you would be wise to do a bit of reading up on the subject before thinking of actually doing it. It pays to know a little about the ins and outs (and the possibility of doing something wrong) before trying stuff that that could leave you with a phone that doesn't function anymore.... Just my two cents. :)

[Hero CDMA Android Development] vayman:
1. Yes it's highly recommended that you fully wipe if you're re-installing the ROM. ;)

2. Those are the CRT animations. You can turn them off by going to settings > cm settings > display > uncheck "screen on/off animations"

3. First you want to find a boot animation that you like and put the .zip on the root of your sd card. Then w/ a root file explorer, adb etc. copy it to /system/media or data/local. Reboot and you'll see the new animation. :)

boot animation

hi all,

i have been trying to put together a custom boot animation for this rom...

i simply took the existing asoprom boot animation from the wiki and replaced the files inside part0 with my files, luckily both folders (original and my new animation) contained 20 png files. i zipped using winrar, and moved the bootanimation.zip to /system/media. it works!!! sort of..... the animation will play one time, then a white screen pops up, then it plays again, then the white screen... it just keeps looping like that until the system boots.

i didn't make any changes to the desc.txt file as there was only one part with 20 png's in both the asoprom animation and my own

i have searched the forums and the interwebs for a solution, but nowhere can i find anyone having this white screen problem. anyone have suggestions?

thanks

edit:

haha got it working finally, don't know what i did differently, but its working now.

i tried to keep it as close to original android boot animation as possible, but wanted to give aosp his due respect

here it is if anyone wants it:

zip:

This must be what happens when the rom is so good there's nothing technical to talk about. :-)

Has anyone had a gps reboot on 3/26? I have not, but only <30 min uses so far.

I was experiencing Pandora reboots with 264/768 INTERACTIVE. Kind of strange cause those settings worked on 3/8 just fine.

That issue is resolved by Setcpu profile going to PERFORMANCE when on charger. Fine for me since I listen only at my desk.

I suspect that gps is similar issue and will be OK since I always plug in to car charger when nav'ing. JIT seems to be running fine for me as well.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] NineInchNails:
Read back quite a few pages and you'll find a TON of posts relating to gps reboot. We've all had different expirences with it and differs from each phone.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] motoelliot:
No, your bi-winning!!! ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] genuser:
I've read every post on this thread since the early 600's. Understand the history well. I want to know if anyone has really taxed the GPS on 3/26 to know the issues are behind us. I haven't had the opportunity yet. Been close to home this week.

Also thought it was also better conversation than the last few pages. ;-)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] NineInchNails:
Lol ya I agree. We've narrowed some of it to JIT. No idea why but for some it works. I've personally tested with and without JIT and don't get reboots so its hard for me to troubleshoot it. Even previous builds I didn't have a problem.

IMO its attributed to a screen off profile. The CPU is getting set too low to run GPS in sleep. Or even set too low in general for GPS to run. I've heard 480/729 on demand should let Pandora run while sleeping but also they didn't get GPS reboot. But that's what they set it for when they want to use GPS. Then back to their normal setup. It's seems like a crap shoot to find out how to get it to work. But when it works it sticks.

I have made three or four trips of two plus hours each and have not experienced a reboot. Have not changed a thing (i.e. enabling JIT, etc...). Same settings as always. I used to get them after about 15-20 minutes in some of the early builds.

FWIW, I was also able to run Pandora at the same time with no issues.

GPS still reboots on my phone with 3/26. JIT does make a difference - with JIT on it reboots faster :) Went back to 2/18 as that was the last version GPS worked solid for me personally. Never ran 2/21, but per the Wiki the inconsistencies started after that build. CPU settings haven't helped in the past either for me, although I haven't played with them in 3/26 yet - may do that later this week if I have time...

I've had three opportunities to really thrash My Tracks for extended periods (1-1/2 hours each) in deep woods (poor GPS signal) on the 3/26 build, ran every time without a hitch. Been running JIT from day one, SetCPU 352/352 ondemand (screen off), PowerAMP running all the time.

I think I'm gonna try 245/352 and see if everything still runs reliable. Will report in a few days, if I can remember. :o
[Hero CDMA Android Development] NineInchNails:
See Jack is one of them that sounds like he needed the CPU set higher on screen off for GPS. Ranger and I can still run with no screen off profile and keep it. It's gotta be hardware related to why others need higher CPU settings and JIT on to work.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
Because there's no need to run any higher, at least not during screen off, as long as everything is running reliably at the current speeds. Running higher speeds would only burn the battery faster.

I'm not certain I actually need the higher speeds, it's just that I know those speeds are satisfactory. As I said, I'm now ready to try some lower speeds, and will report my findings.

Nor am I certain that JIT is necessary for GPS to operate properly. As I stated earlier, I just decided to run JIT from the git-go as soon as I flashed 3/26. For all I know, GPS might run fine on 3/26 without JIT, but I just haven't tried it. As long as JIT shows no evidence of misbehaving, I'm willing to continue running it for the empirical research. The 3/26 build as I have it set up is so fast in nearly every regard that I'm not sure whether the speed is just a trait of 3/26 or if maybe JIT is part of the reason for it, but I imagine that JIT does play at least some small part, and I see no reason to disable JIT just to see if the GPS starts misbehaving. ;)

on a positive note, I just might be getting used to the damn keyboard now. i hated it before. still do, but i'm adapting lol.

Low Memory Warnings

I am to the point of getting constant low memory warnings, Don't know what causes it, or what to do to alleviate it. Currently, even rebooting doesn't help. I am running 3/26, stock rom, firerats 100 2 (have also tried 115 5 and various others) and tb shows Internal: 355 mb (192 mb free), sd card: 7.93 gb (3.46 gb free). Please explain, the concept of low memory, other than for storage, seems far fetched, because I thought the nature of android was to leave items open until the memory was need for another app, than close what is necessary (thus, no big "X" as in windows to close an app). Is this a warning as to processes currently running, or storage, or what is it referring to and what causes it??? Yes, I did a search of the thread and didn't see where this has ever been discussed or answered in any detail. If it has been elsewhere, please point me in the right direction.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
the only one I've ever seen was back on 2.1 when internal was low (below 20mb) and it would leave an icon in the status bar. Not sure what message you're getting. If it's RAM, I would say make sure in CM performance settings that "allow purging....." is checked, and you could try autokiller, YMMV. It could have something to do with your firerat settings/setup too, but since I don't use that, idk for sure.

I've been getting about 36 hours out of light use, 24 or so out of normal use, which for me is basically 3-4 calls and an hour or two of FB and/or blog reading, in addition to sending scattered texts/emails. however, this weekend i had terrible (for me) battery life -- about 16 hours Friday & 10 Saturday with minimal use - just routine email checks every hour.

Friday morning I flashed the SD card tweak & rebooted, and then went to visit family out in the country where I had low-to-no signal on occasion...I was worried the SD flash had caused some battery drain, but yesterday (back at home with good signal) battery life seemed to be back to normal range - so I assume it was the bad signal that killed my battery. right now I'm at 56% after 25 hours on.

In my experience with the 3/26 build, the black screen only appears on the first call after reboot...for me, the screen appears after about 4-5 seconds. Subsequent calls show the call screen immediately after the first ring.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Another thought, you said the camera will shoot video, so couldn't you just shoot the video and then attach it in a text? I don't use mms so I'm not sure. Also, for a killer sms/mms app, get "gosms pro" (it's free) from the market.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rondietz1:
This also is the status bar one, that simply says "low memory". Could try autokiller, but have seen on here time after time that killer apps are not needed, or even not recommended. Isn't the nature of android, or the google operating system, that you can not run out of memory, because when you open a new app, it automatically closes whatever is necessary to make room for the new app, therefore no need for an exit button on any apps. I thought that was one of the major memory management differences between android and windows, at least, that is what I have read in all my google searches. If my assumption i incorrect please educate me.
