Well, I flashed to Drizzy's 2.8 from Cyanogens 3.9.2 and immediately remembered that I had no led's now. So I figured that some people find a way to put up with it. I just make people wait or sometimes I'll check my phone often enough that they don't have to but I was interested in how other people put up with it?
You just get used to it, is what it is...
Figure if you're looking at the phone for blinking LED, just pick it up and hit menu.
yeah that's what I do right now but the flashing led does get your attention sometimes =P
i remeber when i was using different hero builds for a week or so, i eventually forgot all about the leds not working and when i flashed to CM i actually stared at my phone for a few seconds wondering why in the hell my led would be blinking lol. its just something you get used to though i guess.
i just set SMS Popup to do twice as many reminders and i've been alright. have missed a lot of voicemails/missed calls though.

Dear all DEV,
I dont know if you all facing same problem as me, I have tried many kind of Hero for G1 from tradition hero by Drizzy till now the rom was upgrade to use RAM hack, but now I found one issue with my G1 when I try new rom that build on new JAC kenel ( I can't remember all BFS xxx) and it was my phone will not wake up and alert me anything after he sleep for quite a long time, for example, some one call me, they still can ring me, but for me I know nothing from me phone and even I press to unlock the phone, nothing happen. The screen just stay back or sometime I can see some picture from the screen without backlight, but nothing work for me, unless I pulled out battery and reboot phone back. After new reboot, it will go back to same situation again after a long sleep.
This text is not a panic to any DEV, but I want to show it out to you guy all in the new thread just want you all hear about this issue, cause sometime I reply in other thread, it was obmitted.
MOD, you can say I start new thread for nothing important and you can close it anytime you want, cause My main purpose just need some DEV to see my issue and keep it in consideration.
As this issue happen to me currenly I can not use SenseHero or M-LING... cause it's all give me this bad experience, and now I just stay with a very tradition Hero from Drizzy.
Regards,
I did have the same problems when using BFS 300 and 302. But 202 was fine, but didn't have WIFI. Pretty much what you need to do is use one that doesn't use any BFS (MLIGN, myHero) and you'll be fine.
Not sure if this is the same problem or not?
I replaced the MB in my G1 and now it fails to wake the screen up - SOMETIMES. No real rhyme or reason to it that I have found. I suspect that it's related to the MB and not any specific ROM. On reboot, sometimes I get the G1 logo for a few seconds, and then it goes black until reaching the boot screen. Other times it will go white on reboot, or white with black stripes. Sometimes, I can get it to wake up by pressing power then home several times, but that hasn't worked in a few days.
I'm preventing it from going to sleep, seems to work but it killer on my battery. Posting here to see if anyone else has run into this, and if there are any known fixes.
This only happens to me when I had stericsons LS. This may be a thing of the past because now I just stick with cyans rom. Last night I tried the 10 mb hack and had the issue again. Developer was already aware and working on the kernels though.
Can someone help me how come every so often I place press call after entering a number there can be a delay of 5 to 30 seconds where nothing happens. Or of I push the name of a recent call it has the same delay. If I push it many times sometimes it will continue placing new calls while I'm already called. I'm running Sprint 2.1 official. Thanks
you probably don't have very good service where you are, unless you deny that statement.
Only hit it once and you'll only make one call.
Sprint's rom is ridiculously slow and laggy.
More peopel could probably help you out with specific problems with sprint's rom on sprintforums.com or somewhere like that. NOT that we don't want to help, but problems often have different levels of depth, if you know what I mean. Or root and get ever CRAZIER problems and then stick around here!

thanks, but i think its the phone, because now when I click the green button the phone comes up immediately but nothing on the screen works. Its almost like clicking an image no beeps nothing.
Below is more detail of my problem
Can someone help me. How come every so often I try to place a call their is a long delay.
For example I will push the green call button to bring up the phone. Then I will click on a name from my recently used numbers and I will click the number I want to call and it will highlight then nothing. After 10 to 15 seconds does it vibrate and place the call and go to the screen with the timer and the end button. If I get impatient and keep pressing the number (selection goes green for a second) nothing happens for 10 to 15 seconds then the call is placed and it will continue dialing, holding, and conference call as I try to talk to that person.
This delay also happens when I dial a number, and the number keypad is slightly sluggish when dialing.
Please note I a running Sprint Official OS2.1 and even though the Phone Application is sluggish outside phone mode the device seems to run when when using other internet. I am also getting strong bars and EV.
I would really appreciate your help; I just got this phone 2 days ago and really like it, but this one fault is killing it for me.
Please Help me.
Thanks
please somebody help me other than that i really like this phone.

Since you are not rooted and not running a custom ROM, this is probably not the best place to ask for help. You should call Sprint directly or check out the website/forum listed above.....
This lag is common on this particular phone. Just look at all the threads about dialer lag. 2.1 made the dialer lag even worse IMO. A custom ROM may or may not fix it for you.
i'm run Aloysius and Darchdroid I have the lag too. I dont know the problem i just wait.
i run DC and its laggy too... i bet its the dialer app...
that huge delay in actually dialing the number is an issue with all of the ROM's based on the official 2.1 (and the last leak as well I believe). No idea why it happens, but I hope a dev manages to figure out how to fix it soon, because it's the biggest annoyance for me
lag everywhere
i agree, the dialing lag is very annoying. also I have issues when im using the web browser while trying to tap on the url bar or in a search field the phone just hangs and doesn't bring up the keyboard.
while my buddie is already looking at a web page or search results on his very responsive palm pre webos im stuck waiting swearing at my phone lol.
But given all the things you can do to androids compaired to webos ill take the lag.
It was so bad for me that I took my phone into a sprint store and showed them how f'ed up it was. They said that it was happening a lot...evidently they have an internal forum where these issues get posted and the tech I talked to at the store said he saw a ton of posts referencing this same issue. They told me, however, that my phone passed diagnostics and that I could make and receive calls, to which I responded, "sure, I can make calls, but it barely functions as a phone." They sent me on my way, and I figured that was that until I got a text 2 days later saying that my replacement phone was in.
When I went to pick it up, the store rep said, "We'll have to reload the update for you" and I told him not to bother. Whatever issues 1.5 had, they were better than the enourmous issues with 2.1. Of course, as soon as I got it home, I rooted it (the 2.1 root came out the next day) and had 2.1 running quick as a fox anyway.
I have had the same issue, but have discovered one important thing by looking at the logs and just observing... This does not happen when using WiFi. I have a log showing that this problem is related to turning the radio off in order to make the call. For those who do not know, this is unique to CDMA in that it cannot use both data and voice at the same time. For some reason it is taking forever to turn data off in order to make the call. This has been reported to Flipz and he is looking into it, but until then I guess you just have to put up with it or go back to a 1.5 rom.
For those to say that the problem doesn't exist on rooted phones or that he should go somewhere else is not giving any good advise.
I have been rooted for several months and never really had any problems with an extremely long delay until recently. . I know if I am rebooting my phone I have to wait a little bit to do anything, even after Sense has finished loading or i will have the same problem. I'm sure you were not rebooting your phone when this happened.
Here was my experience 2 days ago...
I tried making a call and pressed on the contacts name. It was just sitting there. After 20 seconds it still wasn't calling, so I pressed the name again and after 15 more seconds it began calling the person. And then it started dialing again. I hit End Call and attempted to do it again. I had the same problem. I then rebooted my phone and waited 5 minutes and tried again and had the same results. In between pressing the contact and the phone actually calling it just sat on the contact screen. I have had the same ROM running on my phone for 3 weeks and this was the first problem I had like this.
At first I thought it was with Sprint, but it should have atleast gone to the calling screen and said dialing if it was even attempting to call.
If you have had this problem was it just stuck on the dialer/contact screen or was it on the screen that says dialing/calling?
It gets stuck on the dialer/contact screen. I had this problem slightly with 1.5, but it is far worse in 2.1 including all official 2.1-based roms. The problem is present in all 2.1 based versions of Fresh and Fresh Toast.
I had this problem on every 2.1 ROM. It went away with Fresh Toast and the 710 Kernel. Now the most lagg I get on the dialer is between 1 or 2 seconds. Before it could be 10 seconds before the call placed. I am extremely happy with that overclocked ROM. Try it out if you want.
Hello people!!
So, here's my problem for today, in that ROM (the Desire2Nexus 1.4 that is) sometimes when i leave my phone in the pocket for sometime it just wont turn back on.
Basically it stays Locked and The power button does not do a thing. The only way to get out of that situation is to take out the battery and reboot it.
Now, the last time it happened to me I tried to call it while it was "Locked", on the other side it seemed like it's calling the nexus normally, but the nexus didn't do anything, it did not ring, did not turn on or anything.
Did anyone here experienced anything like that?
And if this is the wrong place to put this at, Sorry in advance.
Ooh, I guess this is my first post too... yay!!

King had messed something up in the kernel, that was the cause. Try using Evils latest version, with Wildmonks kernals specifically for the ROM. Its really blasing fast.
hi,
For starters I've had my G1 since it came out, been rooted for a while so i know what I've been doing.
Anyways.. I've checked the forums and I've seen similar problems like mine but not exactly the answers I need.
Basically my Digitizer is being unresponsive randomly and when this happens my entire phone just FC's everything. The first time i noticed this was when I would Charge my G1 using a Blackberry Charger when id text, the Screen would be unresponsive to touch on all of the screen and just lag on everything. So I would have to unplug it and re-plug it continually. Recently I switched to the new Cyan Rom (i forgot the number) and now it will just randomly be unresponsive with the touchscreen id go on apps and it will FC. Ive wiped and rebooted many times, ive switched roms multiple times as well. So I'm on my last resort and asking for help.
Any help is highly appreciated.

Try to upgrade to the 27.08 Radio/SPL combo. Follow all of the instructions contained within that post. It will suggest you also re-install your recovery. Do it. Once all of this is said and done, if its a software issue, it should be solved.
I had this same issue prior to the upgrade, and all is fine now. Mine didn't FC tho. If I touched the bottom of the screen, it would select something at the top. any questions or a perfect walkthrough, my direct email to my cell is in my info on the left.
<<<<<<<<<< Over there.
ah! thanks! Im actually going to try this now, and hopefully i don't fail and mess up my phone even more than what it already is. and yeah the FCs are really annoying i cant really do anything like make calls, which is ridiculous. Im also having problems with the camera as well i got those really funky colours in it. and then my regular speaker for calls isnt working unless i put it on speaker, i think my G1 is telling me it wants to die. lmfao.

Oh crap. You have the funky color camera?! That might actually be a hardware issue. But we can certainly try this out. I have the gTalk PC app, and it's up and running now if you wanna run through this.
My Hero CDMA just died on me! It was running on AOSPCMOD. Everything was fine for a whole day. Until just now, I got it playing some mp3s. It kind of froze up on me for a little bit, so I decided to reboot it. It wouldn't reboot from the "end" power button, so I decided to take out the battery. Then BAM, put back the battery and the damn thing never turn back on.
Anyone know whats wrong with it? LOL
Possible causes? I had CWM3.0 installed before flashing aospCMOD rom, which is fine. Then I was messing around with the pre-installed Rom Managers, and I think it downgraded my CWM3.0 to 1.5. Could that be the cause of the brick? That's the only thing I could think of. Anyone got any idea??
You think BestBuy can replace my phone? I only had their insurance for about a week, and it wasn't even for the Hero. I bought an Epic, but didn't like it so I gave it to my g/f and I took over her old Hero. Do you think Bestbuy will notice?
Damnit...me and my good ol' luck! or stupidity....either way...FML!!
normally i would say your screwed but i think i know your problem. its probably because of the room i would say format and reflash it. take your sd card out first and put it in an sd card reader and backup as many files as you can.
Well does the red light still come on??? And the chances are razor thin that you bricked it unless you flashed a gsm radio. If the red light comes on just let it charge untill its green. Then try to boot up. If it boots try to raising or lowering your cpu frequencies in settings/canyogenmod settings/performance /cpu settings /min/max frequency. Try raising your min and lowering your max or vice versa. A clock speed to low when the screen shuts off may cause something like that. And don't forget to check the little box to apply on boot. Hope it helps good luck.
Yea its me again with the
Modified Hero--
How do I re-format and reflash? the darn thing wouldn't power on or connect to my computer. If I could get into recovery then that wouldn't be a problem.
I wish the red line would magically appear, lol.
So your red light does not come on at all??? If not then try a different usb cable if you have one.
Yea its me again with the
Modified Hero--
Yea...I did just that, lol. Thank for the reply. For some reason, CM's Rom, the LED light is disable. But I removed the battery out for awhile then used a different usb cable, the phone finally came back on. Whew! I can breath now.
LMAO. I've been there before. Glad to see you got it all worked out. If you need anything else let me know. If I can help I will. Good luck.
