I appreciate your help, I will study up and perform the update tonight. When I post back tonight with the results hopefully I will be updating to froyo :)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doug piston:
If you are going to go through the trouble of updating the radio and then hope the OTA will push, why not install the update? Its the same process and you'll be assured you have the 3.26 build.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattrox1221:
Because I can not install the update right now if you read my first post I explain. It says update aborted
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doug piston:
Your doing it wrong. My idea is you would be using hboot to flash the update. It will work and not fail.

You issue using the update.zip idea is phone is checking for files that aren't there and then aborting. Hboot will not look for these files and will upgrade you.

An even easier idea would be just to run the ruu if you have a windows PC.

I'm just trying to save you time and headache. You don't have take my advice.

alright, I flashed the new radio(2.15.00.07.28) and i am still having the same problem, not being able to update, either way(manual or by ota) and i am still frustrated. the one weird thing is that after i flashed the new radio when i went to recovery to try ro manual update it was clockworkmod!? I have no idea what the heck is up with my phone! does anyone have any ideas?

thanks,

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doug piston:
You will have to either reroot or flash clockwork through hboot when you are done if you want root again.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doug piston:
If you can't find either the ruu or pb31img you can find them here

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattrox1221:
When i try to do this it fill find the file, start loading it then it says parsing image for 1 seconf the goes back to the hboot menu. am i doing anything wrong what is the ruu thing you were talking about?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doug piston:
Don't open or unzip the file. Simply rename and move to SD card. Check the md5 to make sure the zip didn't go tits up during download.

The ruu is a .exe. I'm in class and don't have time to explain. Just Google it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattrox1221:
Attempt 2 SUCCESS!

thank you! this worked the RUU worked! but now im "stuck" on 2.2 and the 2.2-update 1 wont show up on the system update any ideas on how i could get back to where i still get ota updates?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doug piston:
Unless I am wrong you should still get otas. That ruu is from HTC. Your build number should be 3.26
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattrox1221:
Oh, my bad, i guess i just overlooked the vcast apps in all applications, and went to software info expected to see 2.2 update 1.

thank you for bearing with through this whole dilemma i extremely appreciate it

Whenever my Gtab boots, Market gets two FCs, and when I install or uninstall anything also.

GoogleFrameworkServices is 8.0, and Market is 1820.0. This happened with stock 3053 and 3389. I've done the Market fix.

Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

Ok so I have the correct radio and HSPL 2.08, I flashed MAGLDR just fine, no issues there. It loads up and I can go through the options just fine. When I plugged into USB it installed the needed drivers just fine. So I go to install and Android build (M-deejay Gingerbread) and the DFT flasher comes up and says waiting for USB. Then it goes to an error screen and says USB Init failed.

Just wondering if this has happened to anyone or does anyone have a solution. Tried rebooting cpu and phone already. Thank you ;)

Once you reach the point after you start DFT where it keeps waiting, unplug and plug back in, should start.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mochii:
I realized today that my phone no longer vibrates or has haptic feedback. I have vibrate turned on for both calls and texts. I even downloaded Sound Manager to make sure settings were set to vibrate whenever possible. But my phone still doesn't vibrate when i receive texts/calls/change volume to vibrate using the side volume buttons.

I can't really remember when this happened. Would rooting my phone have caused this? It may have been that time since I rooted it a few days ago, but I am not sure.

Thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mondegreen:
No Vibrate or Haptic - after Bionix?

I am having the same problem. I believe it manifested right after I flashed Bionix ROM.

SOLVED--re-booting after flashing solved it. Sorry, I'm a NOOB.

It kind of works with your comcast.net email. I did see some things on my dvr but the tv listing are worse than tv listings for android. It still looks like a beta app. The real missing feature would be to at least watch dvr programs on the phone or on demand. I think they are redoing the tv side with hopefully a better system for viewing tv listings.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BuTTcHiPs:
In this thread, I would like to gather as much information as possible about transferring Verizon Wireless Service onto a

Sprint Branded HTC Hero CDMA

(Aka Hero200 & APA6277) with android 2.1 (codename Eclair).

I have already successfully 'rooted' the device....Now I just need a ROM. I cannot find any evidence that a ROM/PRL has been developed for this phone to support Verizon service(Although I believe some people have successfully ported cricket/boost/metroPCS to the Hero200).

I learned that the HTC Hero200 is pretty similar to the

HTC Droid Eris

, which supports Verizon, but the Eris firmware cannot be installed on the Hero without significant problems. Maybe someone knows of a workaround?

Perhaps we can break down exactly what is required to develop such software and implement the necessary provisioning data into this phone to support Verizon?

Can anyone please help point me in the right direction? Thank you!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thoughtlesskyle:
even if you get it to work as in pick up their service there is no way they would allow you/ be able to active the phone.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abadasstanker69:
Ok I'm kinda familiar with this as I'm new to sprint from cricket. The rom isn't important. Before you get to deep in to this I would recommend you either go to the Verizon website or call the customer support line and try to register the min on their network. If not then what you have to do MAY be illegal and I'm not sure if I can explain how to do it here. I know I can say what you need to do though. You're gonna have to get a Verizon phone and flash it's serial number to your hero. Remember, this is ONLY if they won't register the phone on their network. Try that first and report back what happens.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BuTTcHiPs:
If I risk bricking the phone, it's cool... I'm more interested in learning about it, and I want to see if I can successfully transfer carriers.

I actually acquired this Hero200 through a 'friend of a friend' which was passed along as a gift, but I think the original owner lost the phone. I'm guessing they may have notified Sprint the device was 'lost/stolen', thus rendering the ESN number useless on Sprints network (But I'm not exactly sure how this works).

So if the ESN for this phone is 'tainted' or I guess 'blacklisted' on Sprint's network, this means I have to either program a new ESN onto this phone, or use a different carrier, right?

I believe you very likely could be right... But what are the exact components that make a phone worthy of activation on a network?

I would like to learn more about what constitutes a phones' "identity".

Surely there must be a way to alter the Hero200's ESN or other appropriate attributes to be interpreted by a carrier as a "valid" client.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thoughtlesskyle:
Altering or tampering with a phones esn is also highly illegal
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abadasstanker69:
Sorry the auto correct put min instead of esn. The only thing your phone needs is the prl for text and voice to work. Data is a little more detailed but easily done. Yes it is illegal and if the phone was reported stolen or missing the only places you're going to get it working is a lower tiered service provider like metro pcs or cricket unless you swap the esn. Again it is illegal and I can't tell you how to do it without violating forum rules.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kostov22:
I wouldnt play with the ESN...why dont you just try to flash an eris rom(it might not run everything)but...activate the phone and flash another rom...(Aosp 0.9.8 is my fav. thanks aosp)

anyway...i am not sure it will work but i think is worth a try than getting into some illegal stuff....
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bomix:
how would you get the PRL? I am running a stock sprint 2.1 rom. Heard some people got it to run under a eris rom. I don't think that matters what Rom your using. i'm soo close.. I keep getting "We're unable to authenticate your phone at this time..." DO i just strip the PRL off the old phone? Isn't there an A-KEY that has to be delt with.?? i've seen lots of people get text and talk (all I need) but how are they getting past the A-KEY???

Is the PRL the answer to my mess?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joshr:
I was actually looking to do just this, only the opposite. Buy a Verizon phone and activate it on Sprint's network. Altering ESNs is illegal, is it a different story if you rightfully own the ESNs that you are modifying? I had my EVO stolen so I'm stuck paying full price for another smartphone if I want one. I'd love to buy a phone, full retail price, from Verizon so that I legitimately own the device(and its ESN?), and swap its ESN with another Sprint phone which I legitimately own. I'm just unsure if this is allowed or still considered illegal. Can anyone provide insight?

I'm pretty sure this would require changing the ESN of the phone. If you own the phones and ESNs that are being altered/swapped and you aren't cheating the carrier out of any money(i.e. putting a Hero's ESN on an EVO so they don't charge you the $10 premium data charge because they think its a Hero, which would be theft of their services=ILLEGAL) is it still not allowed.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] egzthunder1:
Changing the ESN is highly illegal, no matter if you own both devices. Look at it this way, the fact that you own 2 cars does not give you the right to exchange their VIN numbers. Identification numbers on products are not meant to be modified.

Please proceed carefully with the discussion of this thread. Continued talks about exchanging (cloning) ESN may end up getting this thread closed down.. Thanks.

There's a guide for using ADB in the dev forum: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=865685

If you are just trying to put music on your SD card though, I don't think you need to do all of this. Just mount the SD card once your phone is connected to your computer (there will be an option that appears in your notification drawer to do this). Your SD card will then show up as a drive on your computer...

Cd to the tools folder of the android sdk. (Bear with me as I haven't done this on windows in a good long while). For example, open command prompt, then type "cd C:\androidsdk\tools", where the androidsdk part is whatever the sdk is called.

Once you have the android sdk on your computer- change the folder name to something simple so typing is easier. You'll also want to edit the enviornment variables (google is your friend, but I'll post a link tomorrow to help). The latest sdk is missing a dll file - I'm sure one of us can upload it, I just don't remember which one it is right now.

Now that you've got that done open command prompt an type:

cd c:\where\you\put\it (the sdk)

Then type:

adb devices

Or

adb start-server

If you get an error it means you did something wrong.
