Lmao, you're a clown.

ON TOPIC: Last 2 nightlies were 2.3.5. if anyone didn't know.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Dudebowski:
CM7 Nightly 143 just pushed AndOS 2.3.5 :)

Reports saying 2.3.5 kills free tethering ability? Sounds like the dev kitchen is gonna be hotter than Hades this week :cool:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Shelnutt2:
I'm running 143 and tethering is working fine :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stayclean:
It kills free tethering if you are running a Nexus S 4G and upgrade via the OTA update. That's it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:
As you can see I'm running newest CM. Not nightlies but my own build from their source to add languages they removed. (That's Japanese in the picture not Chinese btw) No issues that I've run into yet. Battery actually survives the entire day with about 20% left by 10 P.M. with a heavy use day of non-stop texting and internet surfing, even with my CPU speed pushed up to 768Mhz.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cjdalessio:
I'm running 144 and can get tether without WEP to connect but not with. And only with the beta wifi tether. I mostly use BT for tether though as it's much nicer on the battery. Haven't tested exhaustively though.

E3D is still biiiiig. I already have a tablet... :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Nanan00:
It has happened on Nightly 135, 140, and 142, I am now on 144, did a full wipe and all seems well.

Anything ADB is a no go on this phone, every computer I have tried gives the same waiting for device message. USB storage mode works if triggered via recovery but in the OS it will give the click to tether message, with the orange android, get the spiny wheel but it never connects.

I mostly shy away from the Evo 3D because of the battery life, I need 10-14hr usable as I am often no where near a plug. I don't care for the 3d stuff, the screen is far to small for me to watch movies on, playing with a 3DS gives me a headache in 30 mins or less so I would expect the same from an Evo 3D if I got one and tried to watch a movie or play a game.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Robbie_G:
My wife gets better battery life on her Evo 3D than I do on my hero.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Robbie_G:
Okay, to get back on topic, what makes this room different than cm7?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xDragod:
This is CM7. It's just made every night from the latest builds. You get the latest and greatest, but that comes with the understanding that there are bugs that could cause problems, though I've never had issues. Sometimes the battery life can be wonky or some graphic gets messed up for a build or two, but usually it's a pretty safe and stable experience.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
You're heavily misinformed about it. The 3D part is only for the Camera/Camcorder, finding 3D content and games is uncommon, and ultimately optional. To be honest? No one really cares about the 3D on the phone, it's just nothing more than "kind of cool" for a little bit, and then it just gets old. Seriously, no one really cares about the 3D. That's not what the phone is about.

I hope you realize the Evo 3D isn't just an Evo with a 3D display capability...

What makes the E3D such a high spec phone is the fact it is more powerful than the Samsung Galaxy S2. It has a dual-core 1.2Hz Processor (which is actually an underclocked 1.5 which can be pushed as high as 2.0), it's got a massive 4.3" screen which is qHD (higher than any other phone in the market, including the original evo, matched by just a few) which is definitely large enough to watch a movie comfortably on, it has 1 GB of RAM, 4 GB of ROM, and comes with an 8 GB MicroSD card. It's ridiculously fast, has recently been fully rooted and S-OFF'd, and custom ROMs are coming like a flood.

It blows your Hero out of the water. I unplugged my phone at 7am this morning, and with moderate to heavy usage, it's 10pm and I'm still at 35% battery life, and I haven't sacrificed any performance to get there.

I owned a Hero for the longest time, and I loved the little thing, but trust me when I say this; upgrade. You won't regret it. There's a whole world of powerful Android phone usability waiting for you that you've never known before.

...this is CM7. It's just the bleeding edge builds that are built once a night.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kyouko:
I do the same thing for a couple languages. No problems here either.

Phone easily lasts me through the day with consistent texting and web/email browsing.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Nanan00:
So I get back from getting a drink at work and go to send a text on my Hero and it is dead, try to boot, pull battery and put back, put it on charger etc. Dead... Well I now have an Evo 3D, you won me over.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
RIP little Hero.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ganjah:
I'd get an Evo 3d if:

1) My Hero was lacking any features except for speed.

2) Either where I'm living currently, or where I'm moving next weekend were covered by 4g or had planned coverage in the near future. Heck, both places actually have pretty terrible Sprint 3g coverage, but have wonderful Verizon coverage.

3) There were no additional charges. I pay $36.70 after tax for the Everything Data 450 plan with all the accoutrements, and I don't really use my phone for much besides texting, reading emails, and tethering, but not that much of any of those. I do make some phone calls, perhaps 150 anytime minutes per month at maximum.

Sprint is making money from my account. I've been a customer in good standing with never a single late payment in 11 years. If they gave me an Evo 3d and waived the $10/mo premium data fee (since I won't use more data on the Evo than I do on the Hero), I'd get one and they'd still enjoy a very profitable, stable account. However, they're not going to do that and, thus, I'm not going to upgrade. My contract runs out in 02/12. We'll see what executive services will do for me at that point. Until then... :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Robbie_G:
Does anyone know the system size of the latest nightly? What firerat settings are people using?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ohbuckeyeman:
I just installed 155 and put the .35 kernel on top of it. I show system at 132.9 mb. I have my settings as: mtd 135 15 and it's working great.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Robbie_G:
Thanks for the reply. I installed 155 and the 35 kernel as well, but my system is 116.9M (using df -h in terminal emulator). I wonder why ours are so different. So I then set it to mtd 120 18 and it seems to be running okay.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vestaviajag:
SMS won't receive

I've been having major issues recently. I figured I sorted them all out the past 48 hours. Here's what I've been going through...

I was on AOSP 5-23 w/ FireRat (as my sig indicates). No problems ever.

I removed (or so I thought) FireRat

Couldn't flash anything that would make it past boot

Finally found a way to upgrade CWMod to the newest as I was on 2.5.0.1 I did this at the suggestion of a fellow member, stating that it would remove/overwrite all traces of the FireRat settings. At first, nothing worked; used the Rom Manager, HBoot, everything. It would flash and still be 2.5.0.1 Suddenly I rebooted after giving up and there it was, the orange text of the 4.0.1.4 CWMod).

Finally could flash other custom ROMs. Chose the nightly builds (152 at first, then 154). Everything works, it seemed. GPS, Calls, Data, Hotspot, WiFi, etc. It's a great ROM, very fast, everything I want/need...

Until today at work... suddenly my calls coming in had a weird message (press 1 to continue, or 2 to leave a voicemail). It seemed that Google Voice was handling my calls. Then it seemed GV was handling my texts too! I would send a text out, it would use my GV #, and any response from people would goto that app, never to my native sms client or Handcent.

Finally I deleted all GV traces from my Hero, and even went online and disabled all GV connections to my Sprint #. My calls are fixed, and my texts even send in my Sprint # now...

Only problem is, I never receive texts. I've been testing it all night. Nothing helps. Read that maybe updating my PRL would work, but I would have to use a Sense ROM. Tried the WildHeroc and it wouldn't let me dial ##PRL# and anytime I tried to "Update" in settings it said I was up to date. My current PRL is 60672. I also read that it maybe because of my prefered network, or something like that. But I don't know how to get into the QPST settings to even see that stuff.

Please help, I need SMS for work as we aren't supposed to be on our phones talking.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] anthony_s:
You won't be able to update it through the WildHeroc rom. Try the LiquidSense rom a few pages into the development section - and nandroid first. You should be able to update through settings -> about phone. I'm s-off so I just ruu'd, updated prl and profile, booted into the bootloader, and reflashed my recovery through hboot with a hercimg recovery image. Then I restored my backup. Try Liquid first. It'll save you some time. My prl is 60680 so you are a few behind. Hopefully it helps.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vestaviajag:
Downloaded LiquidSense, factory reset, flashed ROM, booting now...

Thanks, I'll keep ya'll updated. 60680 hopefully will do the trick.

[UPDATE]

WOW! I tried to update the PRL first, it FC'ed. I then tried the Profile, and my twenty something test texts I sent that I never got, came flooding in. I think that fixed it! I'm trying to update the PRL one more time to see if I can get to 60680... we'll see

[UPDATE]

I've tried to update the PRL, and it just says "Update PRL - Your phone is preparing your services..."

It's been 15 min., and it seems stuck. If I let the phone goto sleep, or something interrupts it, it acts like it wasn't even doing anything. I think I'm going to NANDROID back to what I want and hope the updated Profile is the key. How can I even check if the profile was actually updated?

Thanks again!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ohbuckeyeman:
I would venture to say maybe it's from a different gapps version. I am using the newest one you can get with the built in gapps updater within omgb rom.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ohbuckeyeman:
I had a very similar problem with the latest Liquid Sense. You may want to try NFX, which is what the latest liquid sense is based on. I have had no issues with it and in fact, with the newest .29 kernel that jasonmaloney put out, it's not all that slow. Worth a shot if you still wasn't to try getting your PRL updated...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ehusidic:
Is it just me or have the latest nightlies had horrible battery life? My battery has been draining really fast on little to no use at all. My governer min is 19 so I dont see why its draining battery that fast on little use.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xDragod:
You know, I have. I just thought my battery was beginning to die. Hope it gets fixed soon. Phone died today while I was getting my oil change. I left the house with 70% battery.I used GPS for 20 minutes and the phone for about 15. I was at 30% by the time I made it to the mechanic and was dead within two hours.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ehusidic:
So maybe its the rom. Im running the omgb 1.2.2 rom and it seems to be doing a whole lot better.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
Yep, battery sucks all of a sudden.

posted via tappa tappa tappa
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ehusidic:
Try out the OMGB 1.2.2 rom and tell me if theres a difference on battery life.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
Not interested in changing, sorry.

posted via tappa tappa tappa
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
I think the battery problem started at 148, for sure 144 was good for me.

I can't just flash back, something changed, I can nandroid though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bravo1565:
Is the battery really that bad
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
Yes. My battery started dying around 5-6pm and I would usually get the 15% low battery warning around midnight.

I'm back on 144 and I just got the low battery warning now as I was writing this.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bravo1565:
That is pretty bad I'm on jaybobs rom and recently my has been really bad I was hoping this rom would be better
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
If you use something before 148 you should be fine. I went back to 144 because that's the last nandroid I had
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cjdalessio:
148 has been about the same as the rest for me. I am using the newer kernel though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
Then try 148, ymmv.

Battery life seems to be back to normal for me on 167
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bravo1565:
Trying 167 but when I flash gapps there is no market Been struggling with this issue lately I've tried 3 different roms same issue the only one that works is jaybobs any idea why?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] shawn1482:
can you post 144 cause cant download it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ehusidic:
Battery life seems to be some what back to normal for me on 167. Thanks for letting us know!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
I agree it's "somewhat" back to normal, but a little off still.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ehusidic:
Does compcache or vm heap size affect the battery life any? If so what settings would give me optimal battery life.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ehusidic:
I took my phone off the charger today around 9:30AM and it died on me right before 8:00PM. Battery life seems to be better on this latest nightlie. My use was a little over 200 texts, some internet use while I was out in the middle of nowhere with horrible signal, and about 10 calls that didn't last very long.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PRGUY85:
Little off meaning what? I'm currently using Jaybob's ROM but found this (copy/paste from his thread):

A week ago, I flashed this ROM after full wipe and applied the V6 supercharger tweaks with V8 tweaks as well. However, after full battery calibration and some day usage, I was noticing my battery was draining. On Spare Parts, the phone had the Running bar on 99.9%. Yet, Battery Usage showed no rogue app keeping phone awake or no app on Partial Wake Usage on Spare Parts. This made me switch to OMGB. Yet, I wanted to try this ROM again so I flashed it two days ago, applying V6 supercharger tweaks (update 9 I believe with 3G and Kernel Tweaks).

Now after calibration (and normal Running state during calibration), the phone is at it again. I unplugged it 3 hours ago, haven't used it much (no more than 10 minutes) and it's Running 99.9% on Spare Parts. Again there are no rogue apps showing on Partial Wake Usage. This didn't happen on OMGB. So, what's the story with this ROM? Any ideas?

AND

Update:

Battery use from 100% to 37% in 5h 46m. Display has been on only 29m39s.

In Spare Parts, it appears Running 99.9% since Boot, Time Spent without sleeping 4h 31m. Curiously, Battery use graph doesn't show much awake time, if at all. So, I can't find any rogue app. Also, this didn't occur during first flash and battery calibration. It's now occurring after booting the phone after full recharge from 100% to 0% in calibration.

Any ideas?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cjdalessio:
I've been observing issues with system hanging after turning off wireless. Never gets data back (2g or 3g) and keeps awake but no. Lear culprit. Switching to airplane mode sometimes fails after this starts. Seems to require a reboot to fix. SMS works during this time.

Build 167 plus 2.6.35 kernel.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
it's the kernel, no issues here cm7 stock.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bravo1565:
I've tried everything that I can think of want to try this rom but for some reason gapps don't work when I flash I've wiped and format numbers of time it flashes the gapps but I signed to my Google account but there is no market and I've downloaded 3 or 4 gapps the only rom gapps works is on jaybobs is there a reason why
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
Don't know but you could try installing market from TitaniumBackup and go from there.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ehusidic:
No idea why that's happening to you I'm guessing you tried the gapps thats attached to the original post? I always use that one with this rom and it works for me.

GSBv3.8-ODEX-cm-7.1.0-RC1-Eris.zip cannot update PRL and cannot receive calls

After flashing, I can call out, do the VzW test call, but not update PRL (*228 opt 2). I get sent to VM after about 5 or so rings when I try on incoming call. Any ideas? I apologize if this is off-topic, but the original thread about this mod is closed.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:
This is not a mod, its a ROM... Also this is for the CDMA Hero and I haven't heard of Verizon getting one, or flashing the device to their service. What are you trying to do?

I am having issues with my phone (Droid Eris) shutting down thoughout the day. I wanted to try a new ROM (sorry I called it a mod) in case the issue was software related. I have run 2 different ROMs and the issue persists. The battery does not last long (old) so I am thinking the root cause is the battery. I will find a new on on eBay. Anyway, thank for the reply.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Robbie_G:
In case anyone cares, CM7 nightly 176 + J-Bob's KERN-2.6.35.14-01SEP-V3.zip gives you a /system size of 117.9M. My mtdpartmap.txt for firerat's is 120 and 18, and running it well. Also, I seem to be getting really good battery life with this combo (not running any other tweaks right now). The default CPU settings are smartassv2, min 352, max 691MHz.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ehusidic:
for us not running doing the firerat mod will battery life be affected any?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Robbie_G:
From my understanding of firerat's, it should not have an influence on battery life. But I could be wrong.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] core24:
The same way that changing the relative sizes of your C and D partitions on your laptop won't affect your laptop's battery life. Firerat's is essentially just changing the relative sizes of the pieces of your internal storage "pie" and updating the kernel options so that your device will boot and know about the non-default partition sizes.

If you don't care about wasting 100+ megabytes on a cache partition you don't use, then Firerat's is not for you :-)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ehusidic:
I dont use my hero for much more than texting facebook and making calls so I'll keep my nose out of this one haha
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrtimo:
Newbie question, you have to check the 'restore CPU settings on reboot' button on the cpu config screen, right?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
Yes . . . if you want the CPU settings restored to where you set them before rebooting.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Robbie_G:
If you want to set your own. But those are what came up as default. I guess I assumed that is what the phone is running without checking "restore on boot," but I guess I could be wrong.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] waqasr:
When you say you are getting really good battery life can you

please specify how long and what other settings are you using?

(performance settings)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ehusidic:
Would you say the battery life is better with that kernel or the one the rom comes with?? Also what vm heap size and compcache ram usage settings are you set at? allow purging of assets? Also with that kernel do you have gps or camera issues?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Robbie_G:
My settings are all default:

CPU: smartassv2, 352-691 MHz, set on boot NOT checked

Compcache: disabled

JIT off

Surface dithering off

Allow purging of assets on

Lock home in memory off

Lock messaging app in memory off

VM heap size 32m

My battery use today:

I had a 1 hour phone conversation (the large drop) and a 5 minute conversation, with occasional checking of things here and there. Didn't use it much otherwise.

I forgot the only other thing I did from default was use Zeam Launcher 3.1.3 from market.

I have not had any camrea or GPS issues. I did not use this nightly with the stock kernel, so I cannot compare. Historically, I feel like my battery barely lasts 10-12 hours, but that is often dependent on where I am/my signal strength.

I know it's not spectacular, like I hear how some people go for a day or 2, but it seems better comparatively for my phone. I also have not used things like juice defender or turned off auto-updates.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:
Nightly #176

[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:
As some have you have probably noticed, there have not been any nightly updates since Sep. 1. The reason is due to that there was a security breach at kernel.org. A better explanation can be found at kernel.org
