nice.. i love coming in here and seeing new posts about new roms. my f5 mission was a success! will be checking this one out.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lows10:
I'm using aosps cm7 what exactly is the difference n this one haha
[Hero CDMA Android Development] BlaqkAudio:
You might want to change the OP to say HeroC instead of Nexus S

What are you talking about :rolleyes: :P
[Hero CDMA Android Development] laie1472:
Thanks gonna download. Ahhhh just like the good ol days. Been waiting a while for this rom now I just have to wait for a theme. Nevertheless thanks.

Yea its me Again With the

Modified Hero-
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
*sigh*

Still having homescreen lag + notfication bar lag. I wonder when it'll get fixed, I think aosp managed to totally iron out the popup dialog animations a few builds back, but I think it came back.

I wonder what it is that does this? Anyone else who's experiencing the same, feel free to chime in, this time I'm looking to see if we share something common about our phones.

(This is in comparison to Froyo)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] c00ller:
RC2 already! That was really fast!!

I know the camera quality has been an issue in all the nightlies thus far. Is this release any different?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Decad3nce:
I think jaybob and I found the problem with the camera quality.. should be in nightlies after one of us submits patch to heroc props.

(I think wjb already did, so we wait).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] radrian92:
Speechless...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zanywood:
What is RC2?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] derekaug:
Boot loops for me :(, after I wiped everything and installed fresh even.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] user7618:
Rc2 already? I don't recall an rc1. :D Anyhoo, sweet! Thanks, guys!

Sent from my CDMA Hero. I got some hot Gingerbread-on-Hero action here!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rootbeer001:
curious about this comment too since this is in the hero cdma forum.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] pstevep:
this is tempting to get in on, especially now that i know that you are working on this deca.. anyone know how s0be's .35 kernel works with this rom? i get it to work fairly well with aosp's build..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rigmort:
I was experiencing the same and it turned out to be a widget on my homescreen. In my case, it was Pure Messenger Widget. If you're running any widgets, try losing them.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
Interesting theory, I'll give that a shot the next time i flash. Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rigmort:
BTW, RC2 is running flawlessly for me so far.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] youdug:
sooo.... this.....or aosp.....or the nightlies.....hmm...

[Hero CDMA Android Development] bravo1565:
Rc3 is running awesome alot quicker definitely up to par does anyone use a browser from the market if so what would you recommend
[Hero CDMA Android Development] c00ller:
I use Dolphin Mini. It has all the features you could ask for in a browser, and runs the fastest while taking up the least amount of space.

Dolphin HD is too laggy, Opera Mobile takes too much space.

Opera Mini is the next best choice, but isn't as featured as Dolphin Mini, which is just as fast.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bravo1565:
Is there any way to set dolphin mini as main browser
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bravo1565:
Forget I said that I wasn't thinking
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
+1. Dolphin Mini
[Hero CDMA Android Development] SteaminLoaf:
updating the prl is not much of an issue. just a few hoops to jump through rolling back recovery from 3.XX, installing a sense rom and then updating. The PRI however not so easy. I got my MSL number by downloading barcode scanner, then alogcat and went through the steps to reset the phone. I thought it was suppose to automatically then pull in the latest and greatest PRI but upon restart there was no data (through 3G or wifi). I gave up because everything was working before and just recovered back to CM7 and flashed the latest 3.XX recovery and now data is back. Maintained updated PRL so I guess that's good. I was just curious if there were any GPS lock speed benefits or other benefits with the latest PRI. Sure wish there was a better way to do all that...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
go to settings > applications > browser > clear defaults

also check if dolphin mini has a setting for that.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Nsandhu23:
Anyone looking for a fast performing browser definitely get dolphin mini. There isn't a lot of bloat, but there are some nice features like drawing your bookmarks that make the experience very nice.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PrO...:
I love this new ROM,is there anyway to change the color of the text on the notification bar? I'm using a theme and everything is black so I can't read it. Thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] smackfreek:
LOVE this rom!!! One thing though,is there anyway to shut the shutter sound off on the camera?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
in root explorer, go to system > media > audio >ui and delete or rename camera_click.ogg
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dromango:
everything seems to run perfect, upgraded from rom 2.2.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gundamwfan:
I've said it before and I'll say it again, this rom is gold. I don't want to slight AOSP, but I've tried his rom and this one, and I prefer this one. I flashed over my 2.2 build, assuming I would always love the speed and stability from such a reliable ROM. but with this build, it's officially good enough to completely replace my Froyo build. I used ATK with this, I had 106M of ram free. That's up from AOSP, which on average I'd have 45M free, and up from the last CM7 nightly, where I had 60M free on average. Great job devs, keep up the good work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bravo1565:
Is there any themes for this rom
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
search the market for "cm7"
[Hero CDMA Android Development] smackfreek:
Thank you very much!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] TinkerToyTommy:
I had that also. Wipe Everything, then flash ROM. Then Flash Gapps. I would avoid any other tweaks (e.g. Build.props, Kifno's, Collin's Batt tweak, Circle battery hack). Then try booting up. Next, go through the Google setup. One of my attempts, I lost the ability to access the market. All errors were fixed for me, by wiping EVERYTHING (and I hate doing that).

GREAT! GREAT! ROM, Cyanogen...

Ever notice people pronounce "Cyan" half-dozen ways incorrectly??? Maybe Crayola should put one of those crayons in the box.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] srkmagnus:
Make sure to do the following in Clockworkmod Recovery:

wipe/factory reset

advanced -> wipe dalvik cache

partition -> format boot/system/data/cache.

If you still get the boot-loop, then re-download the file and flash again, make sure to wipe the above before flashing.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PrO...:
I can't find it...:confused:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alexthearmo:
Flashed last night. Seems a little laggy to me. Even when compared to some of AOSP's older builds. I haven't tried any of his new builds. Anyone know if they're a little less laggy?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] c00ller:
The only issue I notice is the download icon when downloading an app from the Market isn't animated like I think it should be. It is only animated when the status changes from downloading to installing (it just stays grey).

Also, does anyone know if the option to show signal strength in dB is in the works? This feature came with all previous versions of CyanogenMod.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dedian:
From what I've overheard in IRC, it's an AOSP issue, so I wonder if it'll get fixed upstream. Happens with any animated icon that doesn't have text with it.

Edit so there's no confusion: AOSP the project, not the XDA dev :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
It's probably just the launcher, this shouldn't be laggy at all.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stayclean:
Yeah, that was my thought as well. The non-Market ADW included in CM, in my experience, has always been laggy.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wild1z:
For me as well. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alexthearmo:
Just reporting back. I played with it for a few hours but the lag wouldn't go away (i was using launcher pro plus) and so I wiped dalvik cache and flashed AOSP's 3/26 on top (suprisingly it didn't boot loop) and things are much much much smoother. I'm not complaining or trying to stir up trouble, I'm just posting my findings.

Thanks to ALL the devs for their awesome work! We appreciate you!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
Maybe you could wipe dalvik cache and flash back to this and have a better experience too. ;)

They bumped all devices to RC4 today.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ccrunnerli:
RC3

I have been using RC3 for a day now. I noticed when I used 3/07 gapps that none of my apps download and I always get a android.process force close with the market. Does can it be just a bad download of gapps? I have also encountered that my network would say that I am roaming internationallywhen I have bad signal. Does anyone have some tips on this?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] srkmagnus:
RC4 so soon! lol I'll be giving it a spin later tonight. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Decad3nce:
RC4 has a huge bug fix from google that pwns a pmem leak when exiting any gfx-intensive app. I'd highly recommend updating.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ccrunnerli:
android.process

Damn. i feel like such a noob. Rebooting my phone got rid of the android.process force closes on market. Does anyone know why it forcecloses to begin with?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mbarnwell:
Clear your caches and reflash Gapps...that helped me out with FCs
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fowenati:
rc4 is great
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ccrunnerli:
rom fc's

Thank you. That helped. No more FC's!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] srkmagnus:
Good to know. Will be switching back to CM from aosp - the joys of having options :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rigmort:
RC4 running perfect for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Nsandhu23:
Damn they already released another one. I'm not complaining, but that was fast!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danbula:
Does the headphones jack work on this rom? Mine is not working. Tested with various headphones.

Voice Dialer reboots the phone.

Any ideas?

Edit: Ok. Checked on the nightlies changelog and it's pending on the R4.1.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] winter128:
Hmmm....thats odd. Both the headphone jack and the voice dialer work fine for me. Try turning any effects off in DSP Manager.... I had some problems with that a while back and that solved the Jack issue.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] radrian92:
Are you using sobe's Kernel?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danbula:
Yes, I'll try to revert to Deca's kernel to check.

Thx

Edit: Yes, That was the fix!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gu1dry:
RC4.1 is for the Shift only....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danbula:
Thanks for your clarification. Got solved the headphones issue, it was the sobe kernel.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] btaylor545:
Anyone having problems turning off haptic feedback? I turned it off in the cm settings and its still on at lockscreen and when I swipe up. Also laggy a bit in the the menu scroll from what I've noticed so far if neone else has had probs with haptic feedback and has a fix can you please share thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ehusidic:
RC4 runs great. So far about 20+ hours of battery life with moderate use, ondemand 19/518. 518 max doesn't make it lag or run slow at all it's very snappy with the ondemand governor. Love the rom keep it up! :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
S0be is working on that issue as well as some others. Hopefully he can get it stable before he ditches his Hero. He has helped out the Hero community immensely. My phone seems to like Deca''s #589 uncapped on CM7 and AOSP/CM7 roms. Every phone is different though (as funny as that might sound).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bsmith1051:
Just installed RC4 and in general I really like it. I had previously been running Liquid Sense 2.1.

As much as possible I'm trying to avoid installing additional widgets and I'm wondering if there is a 'digital clock' already built-in? I can only find the analog clock. I'm not quite sure what software is installed here but my understanding is that CM7 uses ADW Launcher? and from googling around I've found themes for ADW that include very 'Sense-like' digital clock + weather widgets. Are those just add-ons?

Also, the battery seems to be draining really quick but that might just be because I've been playing with the phone non-stop since the upgrade. Or, is it predictable that I need to re-do the battery stats or whatever that is?

Thank you for any suggestions!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zwizzle:
Loving this rom for awhile now. Awesome work, CM team.

Has anyone else noticed that the status bar battery looks a little "fuzzier" than the other icons? I hate to nitpick, but it's just something that's been bugging me since 2.3 was released.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ch1naski:
Don't know about ADW, but yes, you should calibrate the battery when ever you do a "wipe and flash."

Check out "Fancy Widget," my favorite clock with weather widget.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Texas Spectre:
@ch1- How do you recalibrate the battery? I never did it with 6.0 or 6.1.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ch1naski:
I am on my phone and can't post a link, but if you look in the first post of the aosp gingerbread thread, click on"read me" and on that wiki there are instructions

Edit: nvm, here ya go

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
I use a sense glass clock widget that has weather and gives system stats. You can also do a custom app when pressing on the hour. I went to the smaller recently. Works well with any launcher. I have been using Zeam for a bit. There are many digital clock Widgets in the market I believe.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] c00ller:
I just flashed RC4 over RC3, but when looking at Settings > About phone, the mod version still says RC3.

Is this happening to anyone else?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Nsandhu23:
Nope sorry man. Mine says rc4
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Err0rist:
Mine says RC4 as well.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonevil:
really awesome rom but one problem...i can't get any theme compiled in windows for the theme engine to work....they won't show up in the theme engine, the numbering is right but it skips those themes.....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jwhistler:
Keyboard problems

I'm on RC4. Only tweak running is the built-in performance overclock set to 352/691...

When typing on the keyboard in browser in landscape mode, typing is not reflected in the text box area. If I minimize the keyboard, then bring it back up, the text is there. Sometimes I've had strange placement of the keyboard on the screen, where the keyboard is about 3/5 normal size and placed to the left center.

This seems to happen mostly in landscape mode.

Anyone have this problems, or any suggestions for a fix?

Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stoney_38668:
A quick message of gratitude to all of the CDMA Hero developers. I had my Hero for about a year and upon each ROM update, my phone just gets better. It is so much faster and reliable now than the day it was purchased. I am however moving on to the HTC Merge. Hopefully a team will form around it's development soon.

Again, many thanks!

CRS
[Hero CDMA Android Development] c00ller:
Nevermind, mine still says RC3 because I pushed an old edited build.prop which still contained

ro.modversion=CyanogenMod-7.0.0-RC3-Heroc
[Hero CDMA Android Development] c00ller:
I had my first problem with Firerat's. I'm using v1.5.8.

I've been reflashing and trying different things, and found out that if I remove

/system/etc/init.d/06BindCache

as per jasonmaloney's recommendation, rebooting never gets past the HTC screen. adb logcat revealed that there was not enough space in some partition. #df -h showed that 4.0 MB / 4.0 MB of my /cache/ partition was used, dunno if that is relevant.

So now, the only way to boot is to keep the 06BindCache. However this is the first time leaving it there, and now I can't download anything from the Market. adb logcat says

statfs /cache/download failed, errno: 2

Anyone else having this issue?

Edit: found out that s0be's fix gets it working again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DozeBeatS:
Hey guys quick question. A friend of mine has an Evo with Cyanogenmod, I do as well. He has a problem getting data service where he works after rooting. He didnt have this problem before. The building he works in has bad reception, but he still had some kind of signal for data. Voice calls and text hes good. My question is, does Sprint charge for data roaming? Also, it seems like you have to select international roaming for it to work. Will he incur any additonal fees? Id love to know so I could use this as well.

Thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Yeah someof the firerat users in aospCMod thread have been saying the latest has similar issues, and a fix. RVDigital posted a pretty good run-down of the fix/success, Check his recent posts and you should see it. I know it involved upping the cache partition to something like 40 or 50.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bsmith1051:
What is the 'Clock' app? it seems half-app and half-widget, or something. I would like to make it's full-screen display my default screensaver but that only seems to work if I manually trigger it before locking the screen. Is there a menu option I'm missing? Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ehusidic:
I noticed when the phone is connected via usb and you unplug it the usb icon on the status bar still shows and you can toggle the usb storage with the phone being disconnected. Is this a problem with my phone or is there a fix for this?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] c00ller:
This happened to me in CM 6.1. A reflash with no wipe fixed it.

I flashed this to my ntelos hero and I really like it save one thing. How do I make wifi tethering work? Would really love this feature
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Nsandhu23:
You have to download the app from the marketplace. Search Wireless Tether by muller
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Neogenx:
As mentioned, Wifi tether App or if using the usb to tether to the computer, make sure you have htc sync on it ( so it will install on the drivers ) and just go into wifi, click tether..and your set.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Neogenx:
anyone have issues with usb tethering and the phone locks up? and stuck having to yank the battery

[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
Try the EVO forums
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Nsandhu23:
Sprint doesn't charge you, but they get charged. However if you are using absurd amounts of roaming calls, after about three months they will notify you and ask you to stop or they will start charging you directly. Sprint is nice enough to cover the initial costs but after three to four months they charge the customers.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
Me and my wife got laid off from work. At home we was roaming after 3 months we got a letter that we need to watch are roaming that we was using to much roaming min. Three months later they sent a letter telling us that are phones would be shut off there was nothing they could do at that point. We was with sprint for 8 years. We all ways paid are bill on the 3rd of every month. In the first two years we was late for three months. But that was long before. So if you read there roaming agreement it dose state that if you use more min or data roaming than not. They have the right to terminat your contact. And you do not have to pay the early termination fee.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Nsandhu23:
Sorry to hear man. But in all honesty, the letter was a fair warning.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] holic87:
If I'm currently on the aospCMod (3/19 version), do I need to wipe data before flashing to this? From what I understand, the aospCMod ROM has been syncing changes with CM, so would there be any issues with flashing straight over?

Thanks.
