Hey Keyra,

It's kinda odd... but with a fresh install it's back to normal :)

Although I do have issues with the battery indication.

Sometimes it's fully charged after an hour and some days it's fully charged after 4 or 5 hours.

Both times I drain the phone till 2%, do I battery stats wipe and I put it on the charger... it's kinda odd.. sometimes even a relief when the phone is empty :P

cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] michael_ch:
I have noticed the same. I'm currently installing v78 again to verify this and will report if I find out more...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tl883:
Mmh I thought it was solved when I flashed No 81.

But somehow the ringtone volume still goes to silent mode automatically.

Even when the screen is active. First I thought it was the CPU tuner or Juicedefender. But when I uninstalled them and rebooted the phone, the problem was still there.

Another problem I am having since build 79, is that the txt messages aren't coming thru directly, just hours later or not at all. I thought it was a network problem, it ain't. Sometimes they come thru, but I just don't get a notification.

Could this be a memory problem?

cheers Tim
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] michael_ch:
Well this is really interesting. After 6 hours on battery with a fully charged #78 I still have 73% of my battery capacity.

To compare: last morning after 5 hours running on a fully charged #81 build, I only had 50% capacity left.

There definitely must have been some changes that affect the battery consumption.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DjoeN:
#81 works fine on my Hero, everything works so far (for what i use it ;) )

Did a full clean install
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gciochina:
in any case, i see even more things that are ready for build #82 (changelog here).

hmmm, does anybody know why is there no build #82 yet? i was starting to believe these were built automatically on a daily basis
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jaffry:
I had a major problem on #81.

Wiped everything. Flashed the ROM. Booted up once. Reboot to recovery. Flashed Gapps.

Then I got into this crazy boot loop - I'll reach the 'Touch here to start' screen for 4 seconds and then jump to boot animation and back to 'Touch here to start' and again and again…

I did notice on the status bar - the SD Card was being mounted when it goes back to the boot animation.

It drove me nuts and I went back to my nandroid-ed Elelinux.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] keyra74:
so that's why...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gciochina:
10x!

thanks! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tl883:
How do you guys get that rate after 5 hours?

As soon I'm using the display... the battery goes down very quickly.

1 hour texting/chatting/mailing and it's dead.

Even with CPU tuner and Juicedefender I am not able to make a day without charging it once or twice(limit usage, taking a few pics or mailing).

cheers Tim
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] i004909:
OK so things are very unpredictable in this build, that's for sure.

I also got the boot loop issue when 1st 'Touching the Android' on build 81 - but persevered with flashing and re-flashing radio, ROM, GAPPS (20110501) and even my Titanium Backup.zip. Eventually it went in.

I also had severe battery drain on builds since about 68, and was not happy - but now on 81... I recharged fully with adapter thru the night - and have 74% now 30 hours later. MUCH BETTER!!!

Screen definitely has an extremely high drain - I keep mine set to dim as one way to counteract this but its still bad. Could it be rotation sensor? Magentic field sensor is also a higher user which I think is a waste unless using GPS/NAV/Compass. (Try AndroSensor if you want to see these useages but beware - it eats batteries for breakfast! Recommend uninstall after use.)

My Cell is on always, I used WiFi this morning to update things for about 20 minutes. Only a few SMS's yesterday - but battery use is noticeably lighter on 81.

Hope we can find the problem - on older ROMs I was getting 5-6 days battery life (obviously I'm not a heavy user). But something isn't right.

UPDATE: Oh dear... got home last night with Battery at about 55%, within an hour the phone had lost all battery and switched off. The useage graph shows a nice steady downward line until about 40% over ~36 hours, then a steep drop (graph looks like a hockey stick :-O) within 20-30 minutes. Only thing happened since battery was at 50% was one SMS received. Cell Standby and Phone Idle are the biggest users by far according to Android System Info.

Hero nightly 86 is out. Please check. Thank you. I use it for couple hour.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ciprilik:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tl883:
I got the app installed and like you said the Magnetic Field is using a lot like 6.7mA but the Orientation uses a lot more 9.7mA.

Is there a way to disable them when they are not used? (I am only using my phone in potrait mode, only for pics it's in landscape)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] docertabum:
you can activate power widgets in CM settings and from there you can simply switch on/off screen orientation...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tl883:
that the auto rotation right?

If so that's switched off, that function really annoys me ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] i004909:
If I turn off rotation from power widget bar (or from settings), when running AndroSensor I see the sensor continues to run and consume power. I can see the coordinates changing all the time as I move the device... it's just that the display doesn't rotate - seems to me this is not powering on/off the sensor.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] docertabum:
sorry, that was just my first thought...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DjoeN:
Installed Nightly #88 and it works great so far, no issues with it till now.

Problems flashing ROM for CM

Hi all

I am doing the first time an update of my HTC Hero (GSM). I have done everything described in the cyanogenmod checklist in the Full_Update_Guide (sorry - I am currently not allowed to post the link to this guide).

My problem is that when I select a function of the ROM Manager v4.3.1.4 I only get the boot screen (the black one with the "Hero" sign). I try to boot into the recovery system --> I get the boot screen. I try to install ROM from SD card --> boot screen. I try to save current ROM --> boot screen.

I don't know what I can do now.

Current ClockworkMod Recovery is 2.5.0.7

I don't know whether this is the right forum for that problem, but I think I can find here the most skilled people for this problem.

Thanks for any help!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] afeeq:
you need to wipe everything. If you had wipe everything but problem still persist you check the rom file.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] flyout.net:
OK - I will try that and let you know.

I haven't detected any passage in the cook-book which says that.

Its sad to lose everything (just in case the CM ROM doesn't match my exprectations) but if this is the way to do it.... :-/

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jaffry:
If you have a (Nandroid) backup of your previous setup, you can always restore it if you're not happy with the CM ROMs.

You should do a backup before flashing anyway.

(Hope you have a backup, dude.)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DjoeN:
Gotta say, Hero nightly's are getting better and so far every nightly has done a great job and didn't fail me in whatever i needed my hero for.

Great job!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] afeeq:
yes you need wipe to make new rom installation working. If not you will get HERO logo only. But please carefull do not to format SD card.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chikar4:
hey just wondering, I recently installed nightlies #92 and randomly today my hero just suddenly rebooted on its own. this has never happened before on any of the other nightlies, anyone else?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] afeeq:
Why dont you try nightlies #94. I think its more stable
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] i004909:
No problem - every idea helps, thank you :)

Have cracked my battery drain problem - now I use 2G networks unless I want mobile data on and there is HSDPA (3G) available. Seems my phone was searching for 3G the whole time. Lots and lots of details in my post here:

h t t p : //forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/14455-cm7-discussion-of-nightlies/page__view__findpost__p__208226

Since those changes - my battery is at 50% right now after 48 hours - how it used to be in Cupcake!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] davrave:
Installed #94 today and after a full wipe of all, it gave me so many problems that I deleted it. Best Roms for me to date VR13, Floyo 1.4 and Cronos GB.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
For me non, everything works fine, Some say GPS makes the phone do a hot reboot. Well I havent had it since a long time.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Tatsu99:
I installed nighty 98, all is working except superuser access, and titanium backup, of course... anyone? :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] irmantas:
i confirm this, #97 everything works ok :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Tatsu99:
ok I'm going to try #99 to see if this is fixed :)

Yes #99 is working fine for now :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] irmantas:
Good to know :)

With #97 I have issue with usb mount screen it shows and closes and I am unable to mount my sd card :/ to pc
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Tatsu99:
this works for me on #99
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] irmantas:
thanks for replay :) if think i would go with with #100 today, would see how it would work form me
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] DjoeN:
#101 working fine so far for me :)

- GPS / Data / WiFi

- dtapps2sd 2.7.5.3 beta3

etc...

It works smooth, and so far i'm damned happy with it :)

I don't play games on my phone, so that's lucky no issue for me ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] trikko:
Doesn't cyanogenmod use 2.3.4 now? Post topic says 2.3.2 but it's quite old.

So far, what works and what doesn't on htc hero?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] erasmux:
7.0.3 "stable" is 2.3.3.

Latest nightly builds for quite sometime are 2.3.4. Check, if your version number has 7.1.0 something, its 2.3.4.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] trikko:
Known issues?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
test it and find out
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] khunjj:
After used other ROMs (Ele 7.1.0, Latte 0.9, Floyo 1.4, speedmachine V4) for a while, I decided to flash this latest CM7 nightly 106. Surprisingly, it shows a lot of improvement from my last nightly 86. I can feel more smoothly and responsive than other ROMs, perhaps faster as well. No any bug so far for a day used. Only a disadvantage is it has no app2sd (no support ext2, ext3, ext4 partition). Hope final CM7 will be soon.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gensplejs:
7.1 RC1 is out for several other devices... any word on the Hero?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] perdita2000:
You can use TESLA app2sd option, it should work with all CM7 based ROMS. And of course you can test TESLA ROM as well ;))

Wouldn't it be good to consider a new topic for the Nightly's? (or change to thread title)

[ROM] Hero CyanogenMod 7 Nightlys-Android 2.3.2 Gingerbread (2011-02-27)

is a bit outdated

a new thread or thread title change to:

[ROM] HTC Hero CyanogenMod 7 Nightlys-Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread or "[ROM] HTC Hero CyanogenMod 7 Nightlys"

would do more right to it :)

-------------------------------------

Got to say, i tested a few roms this week and for the CM7 ones CM7 Nightly is one of the faster roms, even Elelinux 3.2 light feeled more lagging then this one?

It was however a suprize to try "[ROM][2.3.5-AOSP] OMFGB 1.3.1 For Hero" Fast, clean Android, but it had a few problems for me (new market (is very slow and laggy and crashes sometimes) some apps refused to install (foursquare))

I'm messing around now with OMFGB 1.3.1, but really when i'm done, i'm back at CM7 Nightly, cause it does everything i need without problems in a relative fast way.

The only drawback that all roms have (except OMFGB 1.3.1, it's a bit fatser in that) when comming out of sleep mode it takes some time to get the screen there.

Ppl that like a descent good stable Android 2.3.5 os on there hero, really should take this nightly in consideration (Tested #150)

That said, i'm of, got a whole day to mess with my hero (that's counting to it's last days a replacement should be there by the end of the month)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pananza:
Is there any development on CM7 for the Hero? I've tested several of the nightlies and they are great, but I cannot see any difference from say build 140 to 150. Is a Hero branch spesific changelog available somewhere?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ciprilik:
there you go : CM7 Changelog For Each Build

Elelinux is CM7's Hero GSM Developer as I recall.

Been playing around with the latest nightly #196

It's pretty good, nice speed and everything (except my BT) works well

Battery life is very good :)

The BT problem is: Can't find my handsfree kit :/
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pananza:
Works with both my el-cheapo bluetooth headset, and my garmin gps with built-in handsfree. Must be a rare problem with your handsfree kit.

I sometimes experience dropouts when in a call. Suddenly the audio moves from the headset to the phone and back again after a few seconds. If this is the cheap headset or the CM build I dont know.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
ya know what's really funny? how everyone gets excited about the "Stable" release when in fact the stable release was declared stable after cm7 finally solved all of the major problems and has proven to be stable enough to promote to a "stable" version.

stable releases are just a solid, proven, slightly old release that works as perfectly as possible.

nightlies, and possibly even elelinux's own rom builds in his thread on xda, will be newer than the "stable" release.

Anyway, I'm happy that they've finally managed to find a release that is considered stable. GB was a tough rom to take this far!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Blob83:
I have only one problem ! The HQ video on youtube :( In normal mode no problem but in HQ no video was play
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
seems that this happens on most hero roms. I've had it work in the past but I have no idea what the rom and youtube version combination was that worked.

So it IS possible to have it work, I just don't anything more than Iv'e seen it myself in other roms and/or other youtube versions.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] adisa:
What you need to do is to wipe all via fastboot, then boot into recovery and repartition your sdcard and then powerdown (using from Amon-RA recovery).

After that, boot into recovery and the wipe all, then mount usb and format your fat32 partition through the pc and copy your files ready to flash the rom. safely remove eject the sdcard from the pc and the press home key to disable usb mount. and powerdown again and then reboot into recovery. Now you are ready to flash the rom and your phone should boot properly now. just in case it doesnt boot, then its your sdcard, try another one. (i once had this sort of problem and this was how i walked around it)

Goodluck.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vido.ardes:
I have sent the files to lox so hopefully they will be included soon. In the meantime, here is a metamorph which SHOULD work with any of the nightlies. As per usual, I am not responsible if you phone eats you cat after flashing this, nandroid first, yada yada... I have tested it on build 6 and it worked for me. You will get force closes during applying, this is normal.

Enjoy! :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] UbuntuBhoy:
Thanx for the update, but unsure what you mean by 'force closes during applying'. Can you give a little more info.

The 1 thing I do miss is a fast Gallery 3D like in the Cronos rom.

But I saw some nice fix my Elemag. So maybe that will work and speed it up, Like in the Cronos rom. Nice and fast.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Tatsu99:
I use the gallery 3D from floyo, it works and it's fast :p
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
Thought of that but on the first version of CM7 I had problems with that :(

But Ill try again later.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Tatsu99:
sorry but how does it work? :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
There is an app on the market, Metamorph or so, Install that and use that zip from lost in that prog and done.

I myself am not a fan of that. Cuss I don't like it :P but most of the times it works.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ganii:
No,fix by elemag seems to broke opengl es 1.1!

Other update will come.

But get higher linpack score with the Nightlys as

with Cronos ROM!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rdejager:
That linpack, well nice, But I don't base the quality of a rom on a score :P

But thats just me.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ganii:
Both are important!

Nightly quality is in other areas (CPU govenor/frequencies via CM Parts,

fixed SMS bug,picture and video tweaks)

and faster too ;)

But each ROM has advantages and disadvantages ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RatTSnake:
+1

and next one important thing is

...

I have functional android 2.3.x on my Hero ! cheers :-D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] R16:

This rom is the same that beta3 or this is a final and BETA3 over?

I wanted to test Nightlies on my Hero but because it doesn't support A2SD-EXT I had to flash Darktremor Apps2SD 2.7.5.3 Beta 04 but I'm stuck on splash screen. I've tried 2 methods with no success :

1st: wipe everything (data,cache,dalvik,ext)

flash nightlies #7

flash latest gapps

reboot for first time (the rom boots successfully)

reboot to recovery

wipe cache and dalvik-cache

flash Darktremor Apps2SD 2.7.5.3 Beta 04

reboot ... stuck on splash screen

2nd: wipe everything (data,cache,dalvik,ext)

flash nightlies #7

flash latest gapps

flash Darktremor Apps2SD 2.7.5.3 Beta 04

reboot ... stuck on splash screen

any tips?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lynx2k50:
Try this one (its from CM Forum):

- wipe data/cache/dalvik/ext

- partition Ext3

- flash nightly

- flash gapps

- flash DTapps2d

- reboot phone

Is there a good way to prevent ones apps from getting deleted when upgrading nightlies? Or should i just make a backup with titanium and restore after every flash?

If you just clear cache / dalvik cache before flashing, your apps and setting shouldn't get wiped

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vido.ardes:
If you install any launcher, you can set it top defautl first time you press the home button. If you want to remove ADW, I would suggest using something like Titanium Backup to uninstall it (but install another launcher first)

LauncherPro is completely lag free on mine, but I can run at 748MHz stable. I hear Zeam is a very fast launcher, low on features though
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
heard a rumor on a blog that lox or cm got screen off anims working in these nightlies, at least partially.

is this true? same thing with ele's gb 0.3 which is I think largely based upon cm, apparently sporadically the screen off animations are working.

yet nothing in the changelogs about this and no mention here.

or is it only in ele's rom that they work sort of and not in cm rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] minty1978:
I just flashed nightly 7 with no on/off animations.

Though it wasn't working when I tried eles v.3 earlier...maybe its my phone.

I also seem to have lost 3d scrollling in Google maps.
