Very strange.. stupid basic question but did you wipe 3x and flash? I'm trying to make mine reboot but I haven't gone anywhere so its useless

[Hero CDMA Android Development] NineInchNails:
Backup first then

Try jit on for awhile and test that. Some here have had success just turning jit on. Just watch your temp. If that fails I'd wipe 3x and flash again. Could be dingles from older stuff.

Coming from cm6.1 to aosp 3/09 I did a full wipe as per http://romrepo.info/wiki/index.php?title=Install_from_another_ROM, but only once. Between aosp builds I've been formatting cache & dalvik cache once each. What exactly do you mean by wiping 3x? I haven't seen that before.

EDIT: As far as making it happen goes, the most effective method for it is taking a call while navigating. Seems to reboot almost immediately after the call screen times out and the screen goes off.

Sprint Visual VM cant play messages. rec/send works good but when i try to play a message this pops up Attention Unable to play message. Any1 else with this problem?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Freeroot:
He means wipe data, wipe cache, wipe data, wipe cache, wipe data, wipe cache. Hahaha I do each 4 times though... it cleans up everything cause left overs generally cause problems..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] NineInchNails:
Just means doing wipe data 3 times in a row before flashing the rom. I've heard doing that clears out little bits of bad info (dingleberries). Coming from cm6 there's probably some there. Ill see if I can make mine reboot as per your post. Again as said many times here all these hero's act differently but we might be able to figure this out since its not widespread as previous builds.

Has nothing to do (on my phone at least) with dingles from older stuff. I do a factory reset, 3 rounds of format boot, data, system, cache, wipe dalvik, then flash rom and GAPPS. Reboots started a few builds ago for me (I don't flash each update so I don't remember exactly which build, but around 2 weeks ago) - never had any issues before, can go backwards to AOSP Froyo or a Feb AOSP GB I still have around, no problems. Going to test the JIT theory - just don't have any drives over a half hour the next few days. Love this ROM - just a bit inconvenient having to nandroid to an older rom when going on the road....

[Hero CDMA Android Development] stayclean:
Just flash a Sense ROM and do it that way. Or just use GV for only voicemail. :p
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JohnPublic:
You have the latest update (T.5.1.0.48). I would try just nandroiding back to a previous sense rom where it worked and back that up with titanium. My apologies if that's exactly what you've already done, but that is what I do anytime I have issues. Nandroiding back is easier than flashing back.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mongolx:
;( just did that still no luck.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MCMLXXIX:
Yeah I've tried that (just updated it and tried again) and a few others.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] JohnPublic:
I just finally bit the bullet and switched to GV. Seems to pick up in 5 for everyone.

The GV page says that it waits 25 seconds regardless of number of rings, so depending on carrier and phone it may be more or less than 5 rings. I assume your phone is not ringing 12 times in 25 seconds though...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MCMLXXIX:
It asked for SU the first time, and I 'allow'ed it. It is also listed in the superuser app.

I did a little googling and found that if I start it from ADB it will work, but I can't control the app from the phone at that point. I can only then stop tethering from ADB.

I only have /system/xbin/su (and not /system/bin/su):

For those of you using jit, what has been the noticeable effect? I used it for while on cm6 and it didn't seem to improve anything so I stopped and never turned it on with this rom
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wjason:
Some interesting JIT reading starting around Here. It goes on for quite a while......
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Did you use a "one-click" root method or regaw's full root method? I've read the one-click method does not always "stick" (I know, a technical term). But still, if you were asked - and granted - su permission, you shouldn't receive a request for root access. . . .
[Hero CDMA Android Development] norm12:
Thank you. I've been following this discussion for a bit and haven't heard the actual/tangible benefit that it produces for our heroc. I know that it is been problematic for some people and totally useless for others (like me) but what I'm curious about is what difference does it make that you can truly notice. Honestly, switching my VM between 24 and 32 has not wowed me in a meaningful way. Using jit never made a difference to me.

To be clear, if you like it and use it, then good, I'm not trolling or flaming, but wondering what the benefit has been over time---if its been on and not broken anything, is that really a benefit or just what it should do in the 1st place?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
ROM has built in wired tether, much better/easier than pdanet.

agreed. Also, for root issues, sometimes TB can fix it, when you press the "problems" button.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cmccracken:
I was one of the most vocal people that had the GPS reboot problems. As of the 3/22 build (and 3/26 for that matter), I have not had any reboots. So far, the longest I've used the GPS continuously is 3 hours. However, before jumping to conclusions about the newer builds fixing the problem, the 3/22 build is also when I got brave and started screwing with the CM performance settings. I have no proof that the GPS fix was in either the newer builds or in using tweaked performance settings, but I suspect that it is due to the changed perf settings. Here are the settings that I am using that differ from the "stock" aosp builds:

Governor: Interactive (huh, I thought I had changed this to smartass, oh well its working ..?)

Compcache: 18%

Use JIT: Yes

Enable surface dither: No

Allow purging of assets: No

Lock Home in mem: Yes

Lock msg app in mem: Yes

VM Heap size: 24m

I have suspicions that the GPS reboots were due to a low-memory situation of some sort, so I think the modified RAM settings are helping to avoid this.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MCMLXXIX:
I did the full regaw method a while back ("unrevoked" and all that crap)

I just tried his new rooting app and it doesnt even recognize my phone as a CDMA hero (though that could be due to the fact that im running 2.3.3)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wjason:
My .02.

In the past JIT has given me problems. On the 3/26 build I am not having the reboots I was experiencing prior. I do not notice any difference in smoothness/performance. My nav lasts longer with screen off with JIT enabled than without (but it still reboots eventually). Other than that I personally don't see a difference.

Not sure if this is the method you tried. I am not familiar with the Tony Armstrong method you mentioned. If it's the same as listed in Method II in this link, then disregard this.

http://romrepo.info/wiki/index.php?title=Install_Sprint_Visual_Voicemail

I have been using Method II with every new ROM flash when I do the full wipes. (Just wiping cache and dalvik for an update flash doesn't harm VVM). Before wiping, I do a TB of voicemail and it saves all my current message data. After doing the 3x full wipe method and flashing a new ROM, I install the Sprint VVM 5.1.0.48 apk in the zip file linked on ROMRepo.

After the install, it gives you 2 options that says open or done. I just select done so it won't start up VVM. I then use TB to restore data only. Only then do I launch the program. With this method, VVM has always worked flawlessly for me.

You may need to go back to a working version of VVM from a previous Nandroid for the TB data backup/restore to work properly. Other than the voicemails themselves, I have no clue what other data or settings TB restores when doing the Data Only restore.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] norm12:
Thanks for the honest assessment
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Your phone should still be recognized as a hero even with 2.3.3. Are you using any build.prop modifiers? The fact your adb starts and operates your wireless tether but your phone does not, tells me you've got something borked in your setup. I know it's a pia, but have you tried fully wiping everything and starting over with the 3/26 build?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Maybe y'all missed this, but open TiBu, press the problems button. Also, the not recognized in regaws rooter is a known issue and he's working on it.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] genuser:

Day 2: JIT seems to have no negative affects. Short trips only so far, but no reboots. :-)

Sorry, but I have to disagree that gps reboots aren't rom related. It's not asop specific, but seems CM 7 specific. Also have a hard time believing dingleberries only stick around when flashing this ROM. Why wouldn't i have them when I flash back to asop Froyo rom using same 3x series? I agree with cmc a few pages back that it's probably a settings related issue.

I always keep screen on for navigation. So my reboots aren't screen off.

Only reason I say it's not rom related is myself along with others haven't had an issue. I run JIT, others don't. Just speculating on what it could be. Know this has been an issue for awhile and since I don't experience it I don't know what else it could be.

There are fonts that render larger and/or read better when small, so you may actually want to look at that.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] genuser:
I hear ya. There are so many folks on this thread and all have different setups. Everyone says running "stock", but what does that really mean. Just listen to the couple descriptions on what 3x wipe was interpreted a few pages back (data, data, data? Or data, cache, data, cache, ... You get the pic). :-) Then add all the different recovery versions, firerat settings, performance settings, apps and different versions of apps running in the background, etc. The combinations are overwhelming. That's why the carriers take such a conservative stance.

It will be figured out. I am confident in that. :cool:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] genuser:
Well there's a first. I just got a reboot from Pandora. :eek:

Looked just like my GPS reboots; screen ON, rebooted to the android screen, not the HTC screen. Music was choppy for about 45sec prior and phone was non-responsive like I have seen many times when the CPU speed drops too low.

My settings are:

3/26 build, firerats 84 4

CM Settings: Interactive 264/768

SetCPU: With same screen ON settings as CM settings

Compcache 18%

JIT=ON

SurfaceDithering=OFF

AllowPurgeAssets=ON

LockHomeinMemory=ON

LockMsginMemory=OFF

VMHeap=24m

Battery temp was at 43C after reboot, I do have a profile to throttle back CPU speed if temp > 50C. Don't think it tripped, but will move higher to see.

Set the do not disturb option. Getting a new gv number fixes it too. Unfortunately that cost $10. For me that wasn't a big deal since i wanted a local # anyways but I've read the do not disturb fixes it. It's trying to forward the forward.

[dpeeps74]
[Hero CDMA Android Development] genuser:
Yep, stock kernel. Just did it again with VM Heap = 32m

This time I left the Info screen for SetCPU up. Battery temp stayed consistently at 41.7C. But the CPU locked in at the min 264MHz and never recovered.

How long did that take??? Didn't look at my last post time.

Edit: About 35 min.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
I don't think SetCPU is his problem. I've been running SetCPU forever, basically like he's got his set up, and it's never been a problem for me.

Genuser, if your high-temp profile only throttles your max speed without also lowering your 254 min speed, that shouldn't be the problem either.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] genuser:
I'm pretty sure that it's not the temp throttle. I moved it up to 55C and made the min temp on the throttle same 264 to take that out of the picture.

It appears to me that the CPU just is just taking a digger to min speed. I have never been able to drive and watch this, but it wouldn't surprise me if this is similar to the GPS reboot scenario.
