Hey guys this is my first post here and I tried to search for an answer before posting. Here's what I have:
-HTC Hero CDMA
-cyanogenmod 6.1 heroc
-most recent sprint radio 2.42.01.04.27
-decafuct kernel 2.6.29.6
-open home full 4.4
Since I installed the new kernel and radio two things are happening.
1. Thy wifi says 'error' when I try to turn it on.
2. Everytime I reboot as soon as the home screen comes up it says that openhome had a problem and needs to be closed so I select forclose (my options are forceclose and report) Then after a second the home screen shows up, I see the the phone is mounting my sd card and my icons are all there but they are the generic android icons. If I click on any it says, this application is not installed. So I go into application manager and force close openhome again, and that restores it. Also any Widgets I had installed has the error 'problem loading widget' if I long press the screen to put a widget back, most of the Widgets aren't showing up to select. At least the ones that were running before the reboot. Any ideas? I've tried starting in safe mode and the home screen never comes up all I can access is the status bar on top.

Deca had a problem with his kernal for about a 24 hour period that did exactly what you're saying with the wifi. I suspect you have that one. Try downloading his newest.
I have no idea on problem 2 though, sorry.
Edit: Actually I had one thought, make sure openhome (and maybe those widgets) are installed to your phone, and not on your sd card.
Yeah, i made that 2 hour mistake a few weeks ago. But it is on the phone. I even removed adw.launcher as a last effort

Hello,
yesterday I started to move some Apps (around 20) to my SD Card.
On of the apps was "HTC_IME mod" (the keyboard). When I tried to write something now I only had the android keyboard. HTC IME wasn't even in the input settings.
Well, okay, moved it back to phone storage. Still didn't work somehow.. it FC'd.
I reinstalled it and it worked again.
Some minutes later I've seen that 3 Apps aren't in the AppDrawer anymore!
Since I got some of them in a folder on the homescreen I tried to start the apps there. It didn't work! Getting the message "isnt installed on phone" or something like that.
+ All of the apps I moved were shown without the actual app icon but with the default green icon. I tried to start them too and it worked..
I also couldn't move any of them back to the phone storage because the buttons were greyed out and I were only able to uninstall them.
I removed most of the apps without a real icon from the folder and put them back in (Holding them in the AppDrawer and moving into the folder) and did another restart to see if they're without an Icon again or not.
Now the Launcher Force Closed. Couldn't do anything.. (I'm on CM6 and deleted the ADW Launcher and just installed LauncherPro Plus)
Blah blah I connected to USB to get the USB screen (makes the launcher not close anymore) and used the powerstrip app to go the root explorer and reinstall the Launcher. Worked again.
I checked my folder again and I see that all icons are still shown! Yay!
But wait, that can't be true. I did another restart.
Checked the folder and most of the apps are without an icon again (default icon only).
AND I have some apps TWICE in the AppDrawer!!
wtf!? What the hell am I doing wrong?
I just wanted to use the FroYo Apps2SD methode to get some free space on my phone -.-

AND I have some apps TWICE in the AppDrawer!!

Another restart fixed it. But it didn't fix the missing icons in the folder and I think it also didn't fix everything what happened before.

Same problem... But i think it may be related to Market Update.
Common problem... have a read of the following:
http://developer.android.com/guide/appendix/install-location.html
http://www.androidguys.com/2010/05/22/storing-apps-sd-froyo/
Also, most reliable results are with stock Froyo Launcher... probably best to use that if you have a lot of apps on SD using Froyo method.
Shameless plug: Kang-o-rama 1.0, which is based on CM6 RC1, is the only CM rom with full apps2ext support. Apps2ext will give you the benefits and none of the pain... see my sig.
Temporary solution
Temporary solution that worked on my N1 is this:
Smokeaire said:
Here some solutions that I and others have posted in the nightly build thread. Go into settings, applications, manage applications, running, adw, then force stop. That brought back the apps icons. The weirdest one I found is to open camera (I then open settings) close camera, and my icons are back. Don't ask me why this works but it does.
Note: All the icons that turn generic are in folders on my home page, including camera.

Oh wth.
I know that the icons were still not shown yesterday morning and during the day I used the camera exactly once.
I just checked the folder on the homescreen and the icons are there .. crazy
Bump!
anyone with the same problems but other solutions?
This is a common and known issue with custom launchers (like LauncherPro you're running) and Froyo's Apps2SD. Plus, it's a known limitation - widgets/keyboards/system service apps/etc can't be moved to SD and keep working reliably. Cyanogen enables the option, but it doesn't say you can use it on everything.
There are no solutions, and it's very well possible that there won't ever be any.
Well I have read many forums that have this problem and most of them pass me up. The only time I get "android.process.acore" FC is when I am adding widgets. This happens about 95% of the time. I moved my widgets from SD to Internal storage. But I still get "android.process.acore" FC, when I re-add them to my home screen... So I rebooted and cleared cache, still no improvement. I am running Cyanogen 5.0.8 and Slide Blue Theme. Like I said, its not that big of a problem, but I would like it to work properly. So what could be the problem?
P.S. After I long press on home screen, select widget, select 4x1 or 4x2(depending on what widget) press ok, then "android.process.acore" FC appears, I wait awhile, then I hit FC, my phone resumes to home screen with the new widget I selected. But why does it have to say, "android.process.acore" FC? Weird......

I had the same issue and looked at this thread. I can not post links.. thanks.. anyway if you were to search and see codedotgoogledotcom/p/android/issues/detail?id=2377
I removed some widgets and it still happened. I followed the last solution to the post and removed my peep acct and it seems to have solved the problem, for me any way .. HTC EVO 4g on froyo (back to stock)..
Got my HD7 yesterday morning and was really happy with it, even more so when I found out that the HTC Hub contained links to apps which retained some of the functionality I was used to on my HD2 such as Flashlight and a phone enhance functionality app which enabled the ringtone to get quieter when it detected it was picked up etc.
But upon trying to start these apps I was directed to the MarketPlace which attempted to download them, except it kept coming up with this error: "Can't play or download. There's a problem with the licence"
After re-attempting several times I found that around 1pm yesterday the apps disappeared altogether and that the HTC Apps section on the Marketplace is now completely empty.
Is anyone else getting this problem?
didnt have those options on my hd7, im guessing its not a problem but more of a mistake htc put links there. i would say its just a waiting game, i know from my desire that i have got too that it takes awhile for the apps to appear and some of them are definitely worth it
They were gone when I looked. Hopefully they'll be back!
remove first
I had this too after it tried to upgrade them, just go to the programs list press and hold on each of them to get the pop up menu to uninstall. Then go back to marketplace and install again.
Yeah, I noticed that this morning they have re-appeared (yay!!).
Only problem I'm having with the HTC apps now is just with the one I really wanted - the 'Attentive Phone' app which brings back some the HTC Senseness that you didn't see from my old HD2 (such as quiet ring at pick up, louder in the pocket and automatic loudspeaker when phone is screenside down on the table).
It downloads. It installs. But try to run it? Nah. You select the program the screen goes black, thinks for a second, and chucks you straight back into the programs list. Dammit.
I sent an email to HTC yesterday about their app trouble but have yet to receive a reply. I just hope that they know that this particular app still doesn't work. Although it is nice to have Flashlight and the other fancy ones back and up and running!
Attentive Phone installs and runs ok for me; and the features work as advertised.
However the flashlight app can't install, and the "love" app (god knows what this is) won't run after it has been installed.
There's also the Lists app (for groceries, todo lists etc), and Notes is there too. I find the Microsoft Shopping List app is better though.
I've got all to install and only the flashlight app doesn't run. I'll try uninstalling and re-installing.
Update: uninstalling worked fine but on attempting to re-download I got an error '8000ffff'. I discovered by accident that if you press and hold the app in the 'downloads' screen, it gives you the options: 'retry' or 'delete'. Retry worked and the download and install completed correctly. Unfortunately the flashlight app still doesn't work tho!
First of all to fix error 8000ffff in windows phone you have to go to “Start”
Now in order to open the app list just swipe your screen from left to right.
Now this list gives you the entry of valid apps as well as those apps which are downloaded automatically due to error 8000FFFF.
Slide to any of the invalid app and press and hold it in order to get the option and press “uninstall”.
Similarly you have to uninstall all the invalid apps that are downloaded automatically due to the error 8000FFFF.
You’ve successfully completed the task to fix error 8000ffff in windows phone
i have a problem with ma window phone when im trying detting up my window live id accounts..its need an activation code to finish setup plz can i obtain an activation code fot htc hd7t9292

Same issue with Meridian Pro player, the widget would make it crash.
Deleting the widget, clearing application data, then re-adding the widget fix it.
Note that clearing the application data makes it forget your unlock code for the pro version. Make sure you have a copy of your code before clearing the data.
I miss the Froyo keyboard, i loved to just swipe my finger up and get another pair of lines with symbols, WHY WAS THIS REMOVED!!!
Or perhaps is not removed, anyone knows?

Do you really need to keep evangelizing CM? This is XDA, we know about CM7. If we wanted to be running it we would be already.
When you go to the USB storage connection screen the button seems to say "Turn off USB storage" no matter whether it's already on or not.

Just close the Market and then re-open and you're back at the new one. You may need to kill Market in app management, or just wait a couple of minutes to go back in.

Already OC to 1.18GHz no need to do anything but flash
THANKS TO TEKHAUNA FOR THE OC MODULES HE BROUGHT US OVERCLOCKING http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1355474
Updating SuperUser is OK now, go ahead and update
Removed almost all widgets
Same Framework as Doomed Froyo so ALL themes/flashable zips made for Doomed Froyo will work with Slim version.
Same Tweaks from Doomed Froyo
OC Kernel 1188MHz/1.18GHz Doom Kernel made by me
*************************************************************
Widgets kept:
Power control widget
Weather
Application Specific Widgets
Analog Clock (Black with green hands from DeskClock)
Calendar
Market
Music
Youtube
*************************************************************
Removed apps:
Google maps
Google talk
Google street view
Voice search
Finance
Richnote
Live wallpapers
News
Soundrecorder
Swype
Facebook
Plenty More (horrible note taker will update with all removed apps)
Replaced Apps:
LGHome with Launcher from source code
Calculator with Calculator from source code
Alarm/Clock with DeskClock from source code
*************************************************************
Added Apps:
DeskClock from source code (shows up as "clock" in app drawer. a sort of lockscreen, put icon on the homescreen, press it, DeskClock comes up and you can turn off screen with power button and when come back DeskClock is your lockscreen. It is actualy supposed to be a "DESK CLOCK" for when you are at a... uh desk and want easy access to music and a clock. Gallery Slideshow option does not work with newest gallery, it does work with one from source but, you can not view 3D pictures with source Gallery. Trying to fix)
Spare Parts (allows you to control speed of windows/font resizing does not stick. Better battery statistics/history)
Email original from source code
*************************************************************
3D Button does NOTHING now just makes a nice little vibrate. It can still be used to switch between 2D/3D in games/videos/pictures.
Increase speed of phone by going into spare parts and set Window transitions/Transition animations to FAST
Launcher includes a bunch of wallpapers including a few from Nexus
I suggest using Titanium Backup to make a full backup of all system apps/data BEFORE you install this rom. If there is something missing you want back or want to replace one of the switched out apks, you can use Titanium to do it
*************************************************************
On fresh install settings will FC on first boot. Just ignore it, it happens because of some of the things I took out. Will be trying to fix this. Settings will work just fine and FC only happens on first boot.
Install:
1) Download the zip from link below.
2)Put the zip on your external SD card.
3) Boot into CWM with Vol Down+3D Camera+Power.
4) BACK UP YOUR CURRENT ROM!!!!!!
5) Perform Factory Wipe
6) Install zip from SD
7) Reboot and enjoy!

For me it works great, can't complain... location based finds me within 20-30 meters and GPS locks on pretty quick to be on safe side I would say within a minute. You will have to install maps from a backup or from market it has been removed.

None that I can think of right now. It is stable and definitely ready for everyday use. You shouldn't have any problems. If you do post them here.
Sweet! Will be downloading and flashing as soon as I can get to work tomorrow and download it! Keep up the good work!

I would like to think it is faster than Thriller... It probably is because it is quite slimmed down there has been a lot taken off of it. The rom is actually based off of Thriller 1.0.3, I haven't had any restarts or problems and I haven't had anyone reporting any problems so I do believe it is pretty stable.
The best thing to do is to download it, go into CWM make a nandroid backup with the "backup and restore" option, then flash this rom and see how you like it. If you don't like, or you have problems just go back into CWM and restore your old setup. It will bring back all your data, sms, contacts, apps everything all of it.
I fixed a problem with the search capactive button and the search on home screen menu not working correctly.
You can either download and flash new rom, no need to do a data wipe.
You can also restore "Google Search" in your backup app (Titanium Backup) it must be a system app for the button to work. I thought it would work as long as it was installed but this isn't the case, it has to be installed with the system or into system/apps
Great work is there a way you can upload a zip w/ the stuff that's removed so we can pick and choose which apks and widgets to install if its not too much trouble.

BATTERY UPDATE: Been running this for a bit and I was absolutely shocked when I woke up.
The shot in OP with the widgets and icons is my homescreen. Turned wifi off and had music player open and paused, data network off as well. When I went to sleep, battery was at 30%, when I wake up... still at 30%. Here is a shot, notice android system is only 29% even right now it has only gone up to 30% usage as I type this. Starting to make me wonder if it isnt showing right.... which I am sure it is... just cant believe that after 8 hours it hasnt budged. Also, when I unplugged the phone, it wasnt even charged to 100%. Will give an update on what time it finally dies on me.
Do you have any Gameloft games? If so, was there any issue getting them to run okay on this ROM?

PROTIP: For those that don't know. Go to settings, wireless n networks, wifi settings, press menu capactive button, choose advances, set wifi sleep policy to off when screen is off... save battery
