Does anyone have a list of any and everything that can be removed from a Hero build, that will not cause the phone to crash.... I pretty much just want The the Facebook and twitter capabilities of the hero.... so any frameworks, .apk's, files, folders, lockscreens, anything.....
Then if thats all you want why not look into a Hero build w/o Rosie? wait not sure if it still has the twitter widget though.
If I was you, I'd get JacHero 2.73 Superlite (if you don't want Rosie). Basically any apk's in system/sd/app_s/ can be replaced with apk's from google builds. For example on JacHero 2.73 I replaced both the Hero browser and music apps because I found them to be to sluggish to be useable.

I have Drizzy's Personal Hero rom and its ridiculously slow and laggy compared to Cyan3.9.10... Just wondering if theres a way to make it any faster.
I read you could install swapper and overclocker from the market and that would make it faster but then i read that it would brick your phone?
Also Drizzys Personal hero didnt come with some of the htc widgets like stocks and contacts, is there somewhere i can download those from?
double post. sorry
pretty much nothing will be anywhere near as fast as cyanogenmod. that's what his rom is know for really.
don't run overclock or the swapper applications from the market on any of drizzys heros. swapper is automatic on it. you need a linux-swap partition on your sd card and that will REALLLLLLy speed it up.
also, if you want all the htc widgets, get the FULL hero off his page. his personal is customized to his (and coincidentally, my) liking, so he got rid of exchange, widgets he didn't use, etc.
none of the builds on his current thread are fully optimized either. he's going to wait till he gets all the bugs and kinks out before he fully optimizes it. when it's fully optimized, it'll run faster and more stable.

It's not so much that Cyanogenmod and other stock builds are fast so much that builds with Sense are slow. Stock builds run at baseline speed-- that which any non-standard builds should be compared to.

true. very true. my statement was a VAST exaggeration
I quit running jac or drizzy's because of the lag. If you really want hero run zeroXD 3.82r3 been running it for a couple of day's running 4 screens clock people bookmarks and weather zero lag I have been pushing this build hard it's my understanding that the dalvik cache is what slows hero down twisted has forced cache to SD and stops the lag not a single crash or loading screen yet.

Can we expect faster more stabler hero roms? There are a few very good ones, but the speed and random missing txts kills me? Also can we see apps being ported over from the hero (The address book which allows facebook sync and such)
in due time im sure it will get better. drake was already working on a version of cm with hero apps so sooner or l8r
yes, that's all i want. a CM rom with hero apps ftw!
Pm drake or drop him a line on twitter to see how its coming along
the new jac1.6r8 doesnt lose txt and my speed is good no BT

JACs 1.6r2a is already stable with no missing text.
the address book with FB sync and such is alrdy on recent hero roms.
Drake has the latest hero update and pushed it out to a few devs already, he's sick so his wont be out for a few days probably, didn't hear if it had working bluetooth or not though, I would assume not, but who knows.
i asked drake a few days ago via twitter about the cm roms and he said he had something, so thats something to look forward to.
i am running the latest cyan with the updater, recently got nav working and my g1 is running super fast.
i tried out some hero roms last week and dont like the fc's, glitches, or sluggish performance.
cyans roms are much much faster. BUT i was wondering if there is a way to get the hero contacts lists ( with the facebook integration) onto my doughnut rom? did a little searching and cannot find anything. can someone point me in the right direction? or is this just not do- able?
No, htc framework != open source. To enable that you would be back with a hero rom. Run kings or cc's latest (i prefer his themed, link in sig I think) they are both plenty fast for everyday use.
Is there any way to make these two apps from the hero rom to work on Cyanogen? Or is it impossible since donut was implemented?
I searched around and found some the filpicker.apk, and the .lib files that were made to work on a 1.5 rom and installed them on my phone but the apps just force close every time.
Is there anyway to make these work?
I'm a older newbe to all of this so please bear with me.
I have a Sprint CDMA Hero running 2.27.651.6 PRI 2.20_003 and PRL 60670 that is rooted using the Universal 1 click app. I have a new 8g card in it with the following apps already loaded
Astro file manager
Clockwork Rom manager
Titanium back up
I have done a nandroid back up before with my 2 g sdcard but not since moving the files from my computer to the new card. Also I partitioned the 2gig that was in it with the Clockwork manager not the amonRA version.I have no partion on the new 8gig card as yet.
What I would like to know is..oh hell..just about everything for this
What I need from my phone is something fast,reliable, bluetooth capable,a nicer typewriter and looks really cool,and doesn't drain my batteries in 8hours of just standby,along with a decent camera tweak that will allow me to try to do something with all of this red haze I have no matter what setting I try. What I don't want is something that is not stable and I have to keep updating or resetting it all the time becasue of the phone locks up like my Windoz TP-2 6.5
Is this posasible in one of the new roms that are out right now ? I have no use for the TV function or NFL foot ball..nor tweeting anyone of looking at facebook,or peeping them. I use Dolphin HD browser and a lot of the apps from the market like the level and distance measure along with the audio spl meters.Heck I don't use any of the Nascar stuff either..I would like to have my music loaded on it so I can listen to it at work and I want good calculators on it as well. I haven't really seen any of the different roms with or without sense besides Windows 6.5 and what is on my Hero and a friends Evo..so I really know which kind will fit my needs and I really want to use..
So..long story short..Please help an old geezeer figure this out

Hey, welcome to the forums. Sounds like you're already off to a good start.
Based on what you've said, I think you might want to try Darchdroid 2.8 first. Here's the link to that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=703133
It's free from all the HTC Sense and Sprint bloatware stuff, no Facebook, Twitter, AmazonMP3 junk either. It's very simple, clean, smooth, quick, and most importantly, even with all that stuff taken out it's still very stable for everyday reliable use. It has a music player, calculator, and I'm pretty sure the camera in it works just fine.
You could also think about trying out Cyanogenmod 6, link here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=755795
It's running Android 2.2 (the next version of Android with newer features) and is currently very stable for everyday use. But it's also still in the process of development, so there are updates and changes still being made to it on a regular basis which you may need to apply occasionally. Many users are very happy with it though.
Hope this helps and gets you off on the right foot.
