What message app?

Also, I've been running this ROM since the new version came out, and it's pretty stable for daily use :D Camera, gmail, and google voice are the only three things I've noticed not working, uninstall and reinstall gvoice, using k9 and I don't use the camera on a daily basis. Great job aosp :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wcooper0077:
okay so i understand that the sensors are not working so this is what i am curious about.. is the sensor that deals with auto dimming part of the group that would be included in the accel sensor???? thats the one sensor i miss the most. well that and the lights on the buttons not lighting up. but i must say

Good job with the rom so far its really nice

Are you talking about auto brightness under the display menu? Mine seems to be working fine.

i can 2nd the issue i was just about to post mine def doesnt work
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wjason:
I don't think the auto brightness is working. I use Quicksettings (free from the market). With the shortcut in the notification bar, it's about as close to the CM power widget that I can find.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] wcooper0077:
Yup thats what i am talking about and i just checked in display settings and it is checked but i am sure at night while driving home it is def alot brighter than it was with CM6 on it so i can only assume that its not working if someone can direct me to a way to test if its functioning other than being in a dark room than please hit me up =) thanks

Here's a link to an audio.zip that has a been taken from some roms for system sounds. I know aosp has taken a lot of them out but from a little earlier post wanted a notification sound back I thought I'd share this. Still a lot of the same sounds but some new ones from different phones in it too.

BusyBox v1.16.2androidfull (2010-08-01 14:57:25 EDT)

I formatted system, caches (a few times), updated to the latest radio and clockwork recovery (as of this morning), reinstalled the 3/26 build & gapps, ran fix permissions, wiped all the caches a few more times, still getting the "cannot start tethering, is your device rooted?" error.

I haven't done a full wipe yet, because I dont really want to mess with my data folder. I dont really know what a full wipe (factory reset?) will do when I've got my data folder on the sd-ext partition. (some insight here would be helpful, if anyone has any)

At this point it's only a minor inconvenience, but it's an annoying one.

Just want to report that I'm running CM7 RC3 with Firerat's and haven't had a single issue with market downloads. My MTD settings are 100 4. I could go down lower but meh, 355 MB of /data/ is more than enough for me.

Just a guess, but perhaps those having issues missed jasonmaloney's post regarding CM7's built-in cache/data binding conflicting with Firerat's cache/data binding:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Ok I posted this for you twice yesterday, maybe you missed it. If you go into TB and press the problems button, that may fix it. Also, go into your superuser app and make sure the binary is up to date, that may fix it too. YMMV.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
I was running CM7 RC3 for a bit and I didn't have to apply any market fix as well and it was a fresh install of the rom with full wipes/formats. I have never applied the jasonmaloney fix, so I think something has been changed in our (firerat users) favor. Who knows though, maybe my other S0be fix stuck for some reason. I'm still liking this Rom too much right now to stay with CM7 right now. The off animations worked as well.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] RVDigital:
Outside of the obvious relationship to the market, does "06mountdl" hold any other critical relationships to this ROM or CM7? Seems to be a fix if a given Cache Partition is too small.

Just wondering

/system/etc/init.d/06mountdl

#!/system/bin/sh
#
# bind mount /data/local/download to /cache/download if cache
# partition is too small
#

CACHESIZE=$(df -k /cache | tail -n1 | tr -s ' ' | cut -d ' ' -f2)
if [ $CACHESIZE -lt 20000 ]
then
mount -o bind /data/local/download /cache/download

It'd be good to move everything from your previous card to the new one, but I suppose you don't need to move the aosp zip file as it is installed on your phone.. I'd just keep anyways if I were you. Never know.

Not sure it's needed. At least not like previously...I wiped everything before I flashed 03.26 yesterday and I'm not getting the black screen on incoming calls like I was getting on previous builds. Instead, incoming calls are behaving like after I'd run the code that jasonmaloney posted. On first call after boot, the screen comes on after 2 rings/vibrations. After that, the screen comes on after one ring/vibration.

bluetooth pairing problem

Everything about the 3/26 build is FANTASTIC for me except the thing I use the most: Bluetooth! I'm running stock kernel with Collins battery tweak (interactive) and I upgraded from 3/24 by wiping Dalvik and cache.

Let me explain the strange workaround that does seem to work:

-Turn on bluetooth in my car. Settings says "paired but not connected."

-I click on "connect," it shows it's connecting and then right back to "paired but not connected." In other words, nothing happens.

[here's my "workaround"]

-Unpair the phone.

-Re-pair the phone.

-Immediately, I can connect!

Is anyone else having this problem and if not, any tips on how to solve? Does this sound like a kernel issue? I've always flashed 691mhz kernels before now but haven't really needed one for anything with this build - would a kernel help this behavior?

Thanks in advance!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] philmhow:

On a fresh wipe/install I adb remove /system/etc/init.d/06BindCache and adb echo "debug.sf.hw=0" /data/local.prop post FR boot flash then boot into the ROM. If the market starts acting up I will then run the s0be fix. TBO though, since I've started to use a larger cache partition w/ FR I haven't had any issues w/ the market.

2.42.02.10.29 is the most current baseband that we have for Heroc. If you have that then you're good. ;)

[Hero CDMA Android Development] twcrosno:
One of my co workers just inherited a Hero at work and the first thing he did was come ask me to root it. Used the one click root for 2.0\2.1 then layed down Asop's ginger 2.3.3. He is pissing his pants on how fast it runs compared to sense 2.1. Thanks Asop!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] twcrosno:
Yeah, had an issue with zeam with my co workers phone we just rooted. The screen was blank, no launcher. I checked under applications and it showed zeam, but it never came up. We re flashed, but no luck. I just installed ADW and he is rockin now. Not sure if there is an issue with zeam and 3/26, I like zeam, but I have no problem with ADW.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] NineInchNails:

Lock screen lock up

I've been using the various versions of this rom for over a month now and have consistently encountered problems with the lock screen freezing. It doesn't seem to matter which lock screen I am using, and it has happened on pretty much every update and now the 3/26. I flashed the GPL kernel hoping to fix this and the problem continued. The weird thing is that when I reboot into recovery, recovery will freeze, IE trackball scrolling does nothing, and I sometimes have to wait a few minutes to be able to access a screen in recovery, so I am not sure what is going on. Any help would be awesome as I am loving gingerbread and don't want to have to downgrade.

Deciding to take the plunge with firerat's mod today. Just one question, 'df -h' is showing 79.4mb used in /system. Does this mean I could put my system partition something really low like 85? Cache is showing 40.6 used, confused how a value like 2 would work here.

Also, the first number is /system and the second is /cache in the mtdpartmap.txt?

One more thing. From the post below, it looks like Firerat's 1.5.7 might screw with gingerbread or cm7, however, I cant find 1.5.8 anywhere. Actually I have 1.5.6... I'll go ahead and try with this one.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
I know you pain. While my "quirk" was different, I had to go on a mission to be able to flash these incredible aosp/cm7 roms. Something changed with 3/23 and above.

I have been using Firerat's since early January and have used it on every Rom, Nightly, etc. since then. I have always liked to do fresh installs with the 3x wipe/formats because I don't want any berries thinking they can dingle around. This is when I found that I could just advanced restore my data form a previous build and I wouldn't have to do a fix (if you do, you will get some dalvik cache choices), I wouldn't have to wait for my apps to download, and everything would be set up the same without locking anything in memory.

I think something has changed on the CM7 side because I flashed one the other day to check it out and I didn't have to do a fix for firerat's. When I was having my corruption quirks during flash from SD card to system, my fix wouldn't allow me to use firerat's (because it needs to look at a directory to search for corrupted files) and I would then do gapps and sign in, then nandroid, do the firerat wipe and flash, and restore. I haven't always done the data restore because I wanted to see if there were any issues there. I couldn't find any.

Now, everything is cool and my mtd is 105 2 (I am at 95% in the mtd3 partition). Everything is running smoothly- theme and all.

I am wondering if you had an issue where your market downloader apk was getting corrupted like my phone.apk or superuser.apk would (and usually a build.prop issue too). It's just a thought. I think we are going to find that things will get easier for us Firerat users. I even tried the mtd @ 125 30 to try and fix my issues, but no dice. Actually, no signal.

I'm glad you are up and running. I have posted a few times about the fix, so I'm not going to bore everyone with that because it is so random. If you want to try it just to see, PM me and I will give you the info. You need ADB to be able to do it.

Happy Flashing!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
You might want to check your mtdpartmap.txt to make sure there is still something written. I erased mine somehow. Actually, that caused bootloops for me because I think that the default mtd is 90 2 if there is nothing to read.

Is it possible you forgot to reboot into recovery after flashing the recovery.zip and wiping system, data, and cache? I have forgotten that step on a few occasions. Also, if you have flashed one of the new 3.x.x recoveries recently, it would erase those partitions. And if you flashed an update without going through the process, I think you would be back to 160 mb of data. Just a thought...or two.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sparticuz:
Is that 79.4 with or without gapps, don't forget about them.

As for /cache. It is symlinked to /data/cache, so the cache partition will only be 1.1/2. Some people have had problems with it when installing apps via market, so If you'd like a larger one, I've heard 10 is good.

Yes, the first number is /system and the second is /cache.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] AjaxBU:
Pardon my stupid question, but I'm trying to learn here. Out of curiosity, what is the benefit of running frerats? I'm using data2ext2 with no issues and over 800mb free. It was really easy to set up too. Am I missing something, what does it do that data2ext doesn't?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Osirus71:
Does anyone have an older Android SDK? Maybe like r6. The reason being, i installed the new r10 cause had to redo my computer and it didnt have adb or fash by default in the tools directory. Thanks in advance.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
Basically it keeps all of your items on the device by shrinking the cache and system partions if you have a low class sd card it would be a better way because your using the nand chip on your phone, in contrast data on ext2 allows you to have more than the fintie space on your phone, firerats was preferred before because till the newest versions of cemetery recovery you needed to use gparted to set it up now it can be done from the phone
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jneg123:
Thanks very much for your efforts and the information. I didn't even realize there was a newer version of FR. I have been using 1.5.6 and doing the sObe workaround in the Readme. The only issues I've had is trying to update more than one program at a time. I'd get low mem error and just restart the update and it would then work.

Thanks for the link to 1.5.8. I'll give that a shot with my next ROM install. Great to hear you didn't have to do any workarounds, that it just worked.
