I am getting bored with my Hero. What can I do to make it exciting again? Here we go, let the hatin' begin.

What hatin'? We don't hate (well. most of us don't).
Try another rom...especially one with overclock functionality and an interface that is not SenseUI (JIT works in those roms).
Try Froyo.

Get into development or at least minor development. Create things for your phone and make it different then anyone elses. Change up roms and themes, or create themes, they are very easy to make.

Tried all the roms with the exception of 2.2. Can you point me in the direction too learn a little about developing?

Will a Eris Rom work the Hero?

Might sound Stupid but I know the Verizon Eris is Very Similar to our Hero's... with that said, does anyone know if its Possible?

they have diiferent kernels, so you would need ours. I've never tried it, but I think you need to unpack the rom and put in our kernel and rezip/sign it. There's probably some other fancy stuff you need to do too, good luck.

Well guys I Did Try It... But Sadly After my Expectations were High, It just Stayed on the HTC Boot Screen!
But it Did Say Installed Successfully So I Still Believe its Possible...
I'd Be Willing to Give it Another Shot, But I can Honestly say I've Tried to Unzip/Rezip a Rom in the Past "But from my Phone"
Next I Resigned it with Signapktic, But must of did Something Wrong because I Kept Getting a Bunch of Force Closes!
If Someone Could maybe Take the Time to Explain the Correct Method to Rezip and use the Signapktic App, Like I said... I'd be Completely Willing to Play the Guinea Pig Role Again!
For the Sake Alone of Expanding the Choice of Roms All the Hero User Have, I Feel it Worth it!!

What else can you do?

I've been with this forum for quite a bit now.
I flashed a lot to try out different roms
But these days I got really bored/tired of flashing. So I was wondering if there is something else that you could do with the captivate?...

I think that's what he is tired of is the same basic rom just themed 47 different ways.
@op, switch to an htc device if variety in roms is what your looking for. Only so much that can be done with the captivate until an aosp build is functional that can be built upon.

[Q] would you all like a froyosense rom?

So I'm doing well with gingersense and I notice some people still use froyo. So would you all like froyosense weather I compile and modify froyo myself or port it from the desire or evo 4g. Would you all like froyo sense?

chances are that it would work with sprint without any changes needed. worst case you could use an eri.xml file to change the carrier name. all of the sprint roms will work on cellular south. i just wanna see one built from a CS image, and i am sure that there are several others here that would like to see it too.
Cool I'll get to work

Bootanimation Thread Epic 4g

Was wanting to see if we could start a bootanimation Thread that only has bootanimation. So here you go, I personally do not have a boot to post but was hoping this would make things easier for people.
Please give credit to those that made it. if you are just posting here for others... i also can not post links yet so. please help fill the thread
That is funny I was literally thinking about starting this thread earlier today. The one I am currently using is the high def droid peeing on apple.

Here is a video of someone running it on youtube.
So far one good boot looking for more volunteers to help out.

Love me some candy korn! Where is Nubecoder these days?
On Gingerbread, you have to rename those files "bootani" or something. (Sanim.zip?) Anyway, I could never get them to work after Froyo.

thank you for you dedicated assistance ... there is a boot animation app in market that can help with changing the boot but is not for everyone and well need to have root access
BAC is the app

New Dev

I would like to start developing roms and apps. How do I get started? I have experience coding in Java and C but I assume Linux is much tougher. Can anyone hook me up with the resources I need? Tutorials? Tips?
