can I tether via USB on my rooted 2.1 Hero? - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Was able to do the USB tethering trick on 1.5 unrooted, you know, changing to 1X only, connecting, then changing it to EVDO... anyhow, the new 2.1 ROMS don't have that option anymore.. least I can't find it... I have a 1.70 PRL, and a ROOTED Hero... but thus far I can't find a USB tethering solution. This is for my Ubuntu desktop so PDANET won't work..

nandroid backup.
Flash an Eris ROM.
nandroid restore.
enable mobile network sharing.
???
PROFIT!!!!

I hope you mean a Hero ROM that's based on the Eris leaks. Eris = GSM. GSM ROM = Bricked Hero.
I feel like an idiot >.<

Eris is not GSM, Eris is Verizon's Hero bastardization.
But yes, flash an Eris based Hero rom (Damage 1.0)
This gives you the correct PRI to Tether.

GSM ROM Will not brick you hero
BUT
A GSM Radio will.

Sweet! Thank you! Could I request a link to the rom? I'm on my phone atm at work, this is my only internet right now. Thanks again!

I can't find a rom called damage. You mean damage control?

Yeah, but 2.08 or 1.0 won't do it, needs to be 2.03 (I think that's the one)

Also, try DarchDroid (Which is the best rom i've used -- it's fast, and doesn't have Sense UI)

Thank you very much
I got a HTC hero 2 days ago myself. It also came with 1.5 so I rooted it using the root method for 1.5, created a nanodroid backup. Flashed a new radio (2.42.01.04.27) and am using the Fresh 2.1.2 rom by flipz..

FRESH rom is sweet, i put 2.0d on my girlfriends phone. its STABLE trust me. she will complain about the tiniest thing. but i haven't heard a peep out of her about that rom for at least a month. i'm sure she has NEVER rebooted it. if so you could count it on one hand. seriously they should change the name of the rom to "sprint official 2.1"
the downside is flipz got a EVO. so any forward development on that rom is going to be slim/none as far as i can tell.
damageless also is no longer deving the hero as far as i know.
this is why i recommend darchdroid. he is ACTIVELY deving this rom. everyday.

I'll take a look at that one too, thanks for your suggestions and your time guys.
Actually, I'm open to more suggestions 'bout you guys have experienced with any other rom.
i also used the AOSP 1.6 rom from here more specifically this one by gbhil. awesome rom. very very fast. like stupid fast and clean. very clean.
and yesterday i flashed Buufed 1.6 also very very sweet.
can't go wrong with any of the roms, they all have bugs. but some bother some people and some don't.
anything based of FRESH or DAMAGE CONTROL is good too if you like sense
If you want continuing support, Try either DarchDroid, or Regaw's mod, they seem to be the only two big ROM dev's with us now that the Evo is out.
Or Aloysius.

[Q] rooted 2.1 hero with custom 1.5 rom

So I have a htc cdma hero with the official sprint update and latest version of 2.1 I just rooted my hero last week and I was wondering if I could run a 1.5 custom Rom? Or will that not work?
Yep, you sure can.
The real question is why?

Yes, just make sure to Wipe Data/Factory Reset, Wipe Cache, Wipe Dalvik before flashing 1.5.
thanks for the help guys.. well I wanted to flash a 1.5 rom because I thought I could get the clock widget that flipped but i guess it never flipped on cdma only gsm is that correct?
1.5 is certainly NOT worth going to, especially just for a clock widget.

Don't flash a new rom to get it.
Just extract the rom's .zip and go into /system/app in that folder.
Copy the .apk and adb push the file to /system/app on you phone then restart.
Should work if you extract it from a gsm rom.
My Evo made me Swype this from the XDA App.
I have seen other forums where people have tried using the apk files from the gsm hero and it ended up bricking their phone. Is there any truth to that?
Gsm radio will brick it for sure. Just an .apk should be fine

[Q] Registering custom flashed Hero on Sprint Network

I recently upgraded my phone and gave my trusty Hero to an out of town girlfriend. She went to sprint today to have it activated and was unable to get it done. She tells me they attempted to register it on the network but were unable to do so. They say this is because it is rooted and flashed with a custom Rom.
It has the July 08 ASOP rom by jaybob. If anyone can give me any help, I'd be greatly appreciated. I'm wondering if I need to talk her through the process of returning to stock.
Thanks in advance
You need a sense based rom I'm pretty sure.
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA Premium App
If you want her to have a completely stock, unrooted phone, you need to "ruu" it. You will find the ruu file and instructions in the development section.
Other than that, you can flash any sense-based rom (infinite fx's, liquid's), and that will let you activate it also.
If she will be taking it into the sprint store, I recommend ruu, tho.

I had no idea that you needed a sense based rom. I'll talk her through flashing it. Quick related question. I am using clockwork recovery. I am under the impression I may not be able to properly flash a sense based rom with this. Or am I absolutely wrong.
Thanks,
You guys are saviors.
they need epst in the dialer and diag witch is only in stock sense roms.

You can flash a sense rom with cwm. I flash my nandroid backup of stock sense with it all the time.

I may be Wrong but you should be able to Activate it over the phone... I think Sprints number is 1-800-639-6111! Also if I were you I'd probably do what the others Advised and Flash a Sense based Rom, Try LiquidSense, or the Fresh Roms are Also pretty Good!
Good Luck!

G1 and Mytouch 3g 32b Sense ROMs?

Looking for a sense ROM for Mytouch 3g 32b (or G1) Radio 27.08? I see plenty of HTC sense ROMs bot none for radio 27.08. I have tried SenseL2.7 but can't get past the language selection screen. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116154
Would be great if it was Froyo or Gingerbread sense for Radio 27.08.
Sense lx is 2708+ (and why didn't you post on th thread that it didn't work? We would have helped)
The gb sense rom is 2708+
Namit1994's sense rom is 2708+ I think
I Just re-flashed it to try again. I didn't use the MTD I using the recovery from Rom manager (Still can't get passed the language screen). What is the link for those other two ROMs you mentioned?

I am monitoring the SenseLX I am currently using SenseLX 2.7 waiting for wifi to work on 3.0 before installing it. I do not have a data plan so I use wifi for everything.

Cannot find the one you mentioned

It was posted under HTC Sapphire: myTouch 3G, Magic myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development > SuperAosp 6.4.
But it also works for G1.

Thanks for your reply but I found it a 2.3 based rom.
Actually, I think 2.3 is just to demanding for G1
Yes it is a 2.3.x base and it will keep going up. currently the ROM is at 6.4.2.
It is not demanding as far as I know. I am currently using the base 6.4 and getting ready to upgrade to 6.4.2 (for basic fixes).
But that is up to you.
Even with the 2.1 base I think it's still demanding.
