Updating PRL and Profile on AOSP

Hey guys I have my girlfriends phone on darchdroid and was wondering if their is a way to update prl and profile

nope, no way. you have to flash something like Fresh 2.1 and do it using that rom.
So nandroid backup what you have right now > wipe/flash Fresh2.1 > update profile/prl > wipe > nandroid restore your darchdroid backup.
btw, just sayin, but if u read thru just part of the DD2.7 thread you would've seen plenty of people asking the same question - getting the same response. Unfortunately with his AOSP roms its not an option.

I belive you may still be able to update OTA but no rollbacks using ##PRL#

flashing new rom to cdma hero I NEED HELP

im using the cdma hero with fresh 2.4 rom on it i wanted to move to the new cm6.0.
and i assume the nightly rom on the cm site is for my phone...right? buttttt
i deleted the files for what i believe is my nandroid back up and apparently never put them on my computer....is there a way to get around this? or am i screwed?? do i have to unroot? then root, flash?
is there a 1 click root?
AND idk how to get out of root..so a link to a guide or maybe a quick way to do it would be nice...thank you for all the help. if you need more info in order to assist ill be glad to tell you.

I'm confused. Did you already flash CM6 or do you want to? If you haven't why don't you just do another nandroid backup. If you already flashed CM 6 and are trying to get back to Fresh, then you are SOL.
Yes, there is a 1-click root, but I forgot where I saw it at.

Thread moved in Hero CDMA Q&A.

Well I'm on fresh right now. I want to move to cm 6. Do I always have to do a nandroid restore when flashing a new Rom? I assumed you did.
But I cannot do a nandroid restore bc it tell me "cannot open directory no files found"

No these are the steps to move to cm6
1. Nandroid backup (when people say nandroid first they mean a backup).
1.5 update your prl, radio, profile if they are out of date (optional)
2. wipe dalvik and factory wipe phone.
3. flash new rom.
4. enjoy.

Here are the CM6 nightlies for the CDMA Hero. If you perform a nandroid backup you are copying your system in the exact state that it is so that if something happens you can revert back to it. When you perform a nandroid restore you are reverting back to the state at which you ran the nandroid backup. Most people recommend doing a nandroid backup before flashing a new rom. You do not do a nandroid restore when flashing a new rom. Just make sure you do a full wipe and wipe dalvik before flashing a new rom.

Ooh okay wow that's gonna help! can i update the prl and all that by just going system updates? and updating there?

Yes but only in Sense Roms CM6 and AOSP roms dont have this functionality (keep your last fresh nandroid for this purpose). Before you move to CM6 update all of that and then flash CM6. Then anytime you need to update any of that stuff in the future (prl, pri, profile) you can do a nadroid and then go back to your Fresh backup and restore then update it and then restore back to cm6.

okay! thank you very much!
and the nightlies? i dont mind using experimental roms as long as i can use like rom manager to just update it i dont wanna flash a new rom every day..

Try going into settings then go to applications manger and find the stock msg app and clear data then go to the msg app settings and scroll down to custom user agent and choose Nokia n95 options then reboot into recovery and wipe Dev cache reboot and it might work good luck

I ended up having to wipe everything and flash a sense rom - nothing else that I tried worked -
I had sense back on my phone for just over a day and couldnt wait to get back to a froyo rom -
i deleted all the froyo zips off my phone - then redownloaded all of them - wiped - flashed - and all good!

I've flashed my droid to a small Canadian network and have had a problem where i cannot receive texts, but the only way i found i can is if i run a sense rom, do you know what my problem could be?

Can't Setup CM6 As Usual

Trying to install latest CM6 RC1 1028, and it wont setup my google account. I came from 1031 nightly because mobile network was causing me issues. Now I've flashed multiple times, flashed the latest RC1 and google won't provision my account. I've done this over and over. I'm gonna throw the phone.
Any advice?

Flash over a ROM with data profile update, i believe Fresh roms have this option.
Do the data profile update through settings then reflash CM6, you should be fine.

Yes, any sense rom will allow you to update the prl.

[Q] HTC Hero Sending, not Receiving Texts

I have not received a text for about 3 days. It started when my sister asked why I hadn't responded to hers. I figured it was just a hiccup on the network. I was able to send her a text fine and make and receive calls fine, but no texts come in. I'm running on CM6.1 and hadn't had any problems with it. I tried uninstalling recent applications, and I even did a factory wipe and re-install of my ROM and mods, as well as all of my apps and I'm still not having any luck. I haven't yet called Sprint, as I'm afraid that they won't know anything or will give me grief for using a non-stock software (perhaps they won't even know); or maybe I'll just stop into the store sometime soon.
Anyway, I've read a few things about this, such as people removing apps and it alleviating the problem. I figured it was just a space issue, like once the phone dips under a certain amount of on-board storage it doesn't download them. I had a similar problem where it wouldn't sync e-mails until I got 2.2 firmware and did App2SD. But my storage isn't really low enough for that to make sense. I tried re-installing the radio that I use to no avail... I just really can't figure this out.
If anyone could give me a leg up on this problem, I'd be really grateful.
Thanks,
Mike

What rom are you running? Is your prl up to date? Current is 60674. Nand, flash a Sense rom, send and receive a few texts, update your profile and prl, then nand restore back to your rom. People have had success with that.

I'm running the latest Cyanogenmod that is listed for my phone, which is 6.1.0, released about 2 weeks before I started experiencing the problem. I have the PRL file and have it on my SD card. Is there any way to do this without flashing to a different ROM?

I had the same problem. Downloaded Fresh ROM. Did a nandroid, flashed Fresh, updated prl, opened maps for a good GPS lock for safe measure, then just restored my nandroid of Cyanogen. Worked flawlessly, and took 20 minutes. Definately the best fix, and the nandroid restores everything to to the way it was, so it's no headache at all.

I'm downloading the stock RUU and I have Fresh downloaded. Nandroid keeps getting stuck on data... about to just go for it.

Don't flash the stock RUU or you'll have to re root.

Well that's not too hard. But what sucks is when Fresh Sense keeps crashing... then when you go to restore, you get an MD5 mismatch... Yeah, it won't restore my backup because it didn't complete and got stuck. Looks like I'm wiping and re-flashing CM6.... again.

Well, somehow I had a working backup from yesterday, the 24th, at some point. It won't be exactly where I left it... but it'll be close. Hopefully I got all the updates I needed via Fresh. Fingers crossed.

The way I got it to work was to flash a Sense ROM. As soon as the ROM loaded, all the texts came in. Also while on Sense, update your PRL.
