htc hero fresh rom 2.3.3 question - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

on the fresh updater i applied the vanilla lock + vanilla apps + world clock 2 n when i applied it it took away the htc music away & i want it back because i dont like the vanilla music app. i tried to apply the vanilla lock enable to see is that would take it away but i didnt. what can i do thanks

I gave up on fresh 2.3.3 too many issues. No offense to flipz but ill stick to 2.1.2.

im not having that many of issues it runs pretty good to me does anybody else know what to do thanks

After reading one of fresh's release notes on his earlier builds like 2.1.2 or something, i noticed that he had 3 update zips that did different things to sense and vanilla lock screen. You will have to reinstall the rom and choose the basic vanilla lock screen because the other lock screens have issues with sense. Thats why certian sense items are not working. The update zip you choose to run which was the vanilla lock screen plus clock + apps. That paticular update zip deletes parts of sense that are incompatible with the lockscreen.
Hope this helps

ok it makes sense ya ill just reinstall the rom thanks

i tried to back up both nandroid & bart & they both said (error : run nandroid-mobile.sh via adb! & error : run bart via adb!) whats causing that

Newb here...need help loading "rosie" interface

I have rooted and installed HERO2 - Freedom of choice v1.5.5. Cant seem to figure out how to get to the next stage and install the "rosie" interface. Is it a theme? Do I need to download and install something else... is so where and how.
Any help would be...well...helpful.
Jeff
If you've installed thata ROM then rosie is the homescreen UI. Click the plus on the bottom right and choose HTC Widgets, from there you can add all the nice widgets.
Thanks... I think I found out what I did. I installed a different rom since my version of recovery cyanogenmod v1.4 didn't let me install that rom. I keep getting a no such file or directory, faliure at line 80 error.
Do you know if there is anyway to get the rosie interface on a cyanogen or donut rom?
Am I way off track here?
failure at line 80 means you don't thave the 1.33.2005 SPL. Make sure you have the blah blah.26I radio first though. No theres no way to get Rosie on an AOSP ROM.

need an alternative to Cyanogenmod

ok i have had for about 3 or 4 weeks cyanogenmod and it doesnt always pick up my email...if i go into an app while listen to music (like ip cam or even the browser) the music app crashes (just stops and when i load it up again its rest back to where i was when i loaded the music app that time) so i want to change roms
heres the details
network: t-mobile uk (dont know if that makes a difference)
model number : T-Mobile g1
firmwareversion: 1.6
baseband version: 62.50s.20.17u_2.22.19.26i
kernalversion: 2.6.29.6-cm42 shade_at_toxygene ) (the _at_ is actualy the at email symbol but i couldnt post this thread with that there)
mod version: cyanogenmod-4.2.9.1
build number: DRC83
wow thats a lot of digits!
ok so what custom kernal/firmware do you guys recommend? (i know its down to personal taste but i need an alternative, im tired of my phone being so sluggish)
the requirments i have
apps to sd (as easy as possible!)
extra home screens
thats all i really need in a kernal (the ability to go to the next track with the hangup button on my bluetooth headset would be fantastic, but i guess that will never happen )
Thank you very much in advan

Try updating to the latest cyanogen, or try something like Super D, thats supposed ot be quick.
Perhaps upgrade to Cyangenmod version 4.2.14.1? You seem to have missed some versions. An alternative would be, the Super-D versions. For other options: check the ROM-posts, download them and install them. See which one you like the most.
i ran the cm updater and it says no new versions available will look into super d thankyou
the cm updater apears to have gone lazy im following the wiki to update the rom now
also if i try super-d rom i will need to do a full wipe...i renember the term but not the method (stupid brain)
I've tried every rom here and I use TheOfficial. It works great, it rarely forces closes, and it's never crashed. The links are in my signature. If your phone starts to run sluggish, get a task manager see how much free ram you have. That's a problem common to all roms.
Also, posting a question in the Q & A section will get you more responses.

Look fot Titanium Backup in the Market. (Search for root) It will backup all your apps and data, making a full wipe much less inconvient.

Enom's offical is actually faster than cyan & Super-D after doing tests for both. Apps open fast even with a max of 384. Plus enom uses the expo to get more things. I've used theoffical for a long time(since it came out) and think you should try it. However flashing the RC29 is also a good option for you then you can wait for 1.6 and then wait for the infamous rumor to go airborne to give you 2.1 .
ok this is wierd
held down home+back when turning on to do a factory reset
i updated to 4.2.14.1
i used the factory reset in recovery
i booted up (took ages)
cmupdater immediatly said there was an update (4.2.9.1) i think cmupdater might of become senile

It wont find a new version, because the updater thinks that .14 is older than .9 because of the one.
You can change that in the options (or just download the new version in the CM topic here on xda)
Moved as not Android Development.
thank you
i flashed the official (adp version) plus expansion... just looking at themes now
it doesnt look much different (hence the themes lol) but seems a lot faster

Quick question

Ok i did a search for whats the best ROM and it really didnt pop up with much so i figured i would ask, im fairly new to this all im running damagecontrol 2.08.1 my pri is 1.70_003 i guess what im looking for is there a better ROM that has everything working (or at least the big features) with sense as its launcher.
also my RA is 1.6.2 that i installed via freshkitchen is there a newer/better version i should use?
the reason i ask is because dmgcontrol is working fine except when i try to go in and change my USB settings to connect to pc settings crash, and the nexus live wallpaper doesnt load properly
I like Fresh but I am not sure how much longer it will be developed if at all.
This situation is one of the good thing about nandroid backup. Do a backup in recovery and then try out a bunch of ROMs. You can always go back to your original setup and if you did a lot of wipes then going back to that will help transition over to a new ROM you pick.

Can you please clarify your post. There is no damage1.8.1.2.1.
Are you using the most recent damage (2.09.01?) If so, these zips aren't compatible with it. They would be compatible with previous ROMs.
Um... those zips are designed for Fresh 2.1.2, that's why you're having problems.... they aren't designed for the damage roms to my knowledge
i ment the 2.1 rom 2.08.1 but im no longer using that im using the
Stock Sprint Rom 2.27.651.5 and if there not compatible where can i found one that is i just hate the stock lockscreen and the apps that replace it

[Q] Issues with Legend 5 ICS + Corn Kernel 7.06

Just installed these earlier(Odin method) on my 100% OEM gingerbread captivate and I ran in to some issues.
-I'm noticing some sluggishness in various actions, i.e. unlocking the phone, using the connect-the-dots lock screen, etc. Didn't do this before.
-Seems like the battery is draining a little faster than normal.
-Seems like I have less free memory than normal.
-I can not figure out how to fit a wallpaper to a single screen since I don't keep icons on the other screens and even deleted/disabled them in the launcher desktop settings. When I go to wallpapers > gallery > my wallpapers folder > my wallpaper I always choose the rectangle option and click/drag and set that. Now I can only see a small portion of that rectangle as it seems to be zoomed in like 50x. Does it with every custom wallpaper I try.

Really? I'm currently running same as yours Legend 5 ICS with Corn 7.06 and my results are far more different than yours. I have experiencing any of issues or what so ever and I have more free memory than the past Legend 4. I'll suggest that you FLASH back to STOCK KK4 using One click Odin in the development section so it will be a fresh and clean reflash. Then root your phone using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1680048 and get CWM. Then FLASH the LEGEND 5 ICS FULL WIPE ROM in CWM. Wait and poof! All is good.
Did you upgrade from another ROM? A previous version of Legend? Go back and flash the full wipe version of Legend. I think you'll see your problems go away.
@ red and takeoutt thanks for the posts @ op hopefully the issues will be taken care of with the one click takeoutt recommended if not feel free to to bring up any other issues you have on the Legend Q&A thread..

So I'm using this post to go back to OEM with the option "I897UCKK4 Odin One Click - Stock, NO Bootloaders, Re-partition, Full Wipe"...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18370912&postcount=3
And using this post to root my phone and get Corn 7.0A Kernel using his batch file method...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1680048
What are the steps for reinstalling the Legend 5 ROM? With Corn 7.06 Kernal I booted the phone in recovery mode and used that new kernal menu to install the ROM.zip from internalSD, I'm assuming the process will be about the same?
Do I need to reinstall GB bootloaders or will those always be on my phone due to previously having GB?
Anything else in particular I need to know before doing this?

I went from a 100% OEM GB KK4 Captivate to Legend 5 ICS and Corn 7.06 Kernel.

Thanks for the link, I'll check that out.
I posted a reply above to confirm if those are the correct links/steps I need to perform this reset/reinstall. Want to be 100% sure before I do this.
Sounds like you have the steps down.
Just make sure you flash the full wipe version of the ROM

Pretty sure that's what I went with before, "Legend_v5_KK4_ICS_FW.zip," but maybe it was that 7.06 kernel giving me issues.
Do you know if this wipe/reinstall will give m back my ability to fit backgrounds to my screen again? That's a HUGE annoyance mainly because I only use a single screen, I removed the other blank screens via the holo launcher, and it still stretches my backgrounds for some reason. I'm wondering if I just need to crop my images to single-screen size for them to work properly.
ETA: OdinOneClick got me set back to OEM KK4 without issue. That custom batch file got me rooted and set to Corn 7.0a Kernel without issue. Now rebooting in to recovery mode once more so I can reinstall Legend 5 ICS FW.
Just finished reinstalling Legend 5 and all my apps.
Seems to be running a bit smoother than before., memory free is about the same, but wallpapers are still showing as zoomed in when I choose them(uploaded to externalSD or Zedge wallpapers). Any idea on how to fix this?
I use Go Launcher so I can't say for sure...
Give me a few minutes and I'll switch launchers and see.....
It does this across Go Launcher and Holo Launcher. Touchwiz seems to keep it the normal size.
Now I have to go restore my Go Launcher from backup because I hit the wrong button.....grrrr
What do these launchers do exactly, and what would some pros/cons be if I switched from holo to something like touchwiz?

The launcher is what lists your programs and shows you the home screen. Some add new features, some use less memory, some are just plain faster. You just need to try them and see what you like best. You might want to download a program called desk migrate to help move your layout between the different launchers.
Thanks. I'll see whats out there and give them a try.
Can't really seem to figure out what launcher my phone has(OEM) and where I can find other launchers.
What launchers and themes are compatible with Legend 5 ICS? I guess it would help to know what's been tested before I just go throwing whatever on this phone.
ETA: robm1911's "Stainless" theme for the Captivate is awesome looking. Not sure on compatibility, though.
I find the holo luncher very responsive and snappy. Got no problems at all really.

Hololauncher worked great for me, but it kept zooming in on my wallpapers which was a deal breaker for me.
Touchwhiz 4.0(in second post of L5 thread and listed as TW4) not only fixed that resolution problem, but it also offers more customizations and seems just as snappy as HL did. Definitely worth trying out, just use homeswitcher from the market to switch back and forth between launchers if you don't want to make a full commitment to just one.
The app that either you or rob recommended that backs up your settings and moves them between launchers did not work for me. It downloaded and installed but wouldn't do anything when I tried to run it. No biggie as I only run 2 screens, homescreen for apps and second screen for games. Not too much to set up.
Has anyone tested TW4.5 with L5? I guess it's just a re-work of 4.0 with some extra options thrown in.
have you tried go launcher ex?
i think it has the option whether to zoom in your image or letting it display normally on the wallpaper
