Hey everybody, i have a quick question. I have rooted my HTC SPRINT HERO (CMDA) and I'm looking for a stable 2.2 (Froyo) ROM so that i can flash. Anyone have any recommendations?
Looking for a Sense base, or AOSP?
I prefer AOSP to CM but the CM7 tht aosp made is the best rom ive tried thr were alot of issues bot all of them are fixed

Im looking for a AOSP. Something that will make my phone run Froyo. I already have sense and im not a big fan of it. I like the TouchWiz feel better
why not just try Ginger bread?
aospmod 2.2.1 froyo http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=782320 no problems yet

See above or the 31DEC release of it that was done by CM. I think it was the last 6.2 entry of the Froyo releases. Although, rumor has it that they picked up on the Froyo nightlys again. Might want to check that out too.
Come check out the latest Gingerbread when you get the chance. It's making great progress!!

On aospcmod, it's pretty much almost set, just have problems with trying to play more than 5 YouTube vids. But there is a work around. I haven't had time to try out the cm nightlies but they have a thread in the dev forums about both

not yet, but the update should be today now that fresh toast 2.1 is out of beta. darchstar said he would make a new thread for the 2.6 update. keep an eye on the dev section today/tonight
i know i will be waiting for it
Agreed darchlegend was the first rom i ever really used on a daily basis and i loved darchdroid but no camera just wasn't working for me. and i love how the slide rom looks in rosie and the 5 screens but i find it to always be slow,does overclock really help out this rom? and is freshtoast slower since the sprint ruu has alot of bugs? just things to consider
if speed is that big of an issue download all of the roms and run bemchmarks
Fresh toast 2.1 overclocked is running as fast as lightning for me... Have yet to experience a bug
Can the "old-tv" screen animation be ported to cm6 ?
It has been tried earlier. It seems to be very difficult.

Thanks for your reply. All in all gingerbread is great but to my personal experience it's not that snappy like froyo. I'm using launcher pro plus as home replacement and in froyo I managed to set it so I wont get redraws when closing the browser or other application that needs a lot of ram.
Note: I disabled JIT
In gingerbread with the same settings of launcher pro I get redraws. I tried with jit disabled, enabled, vmheap 32,40 and it's the same.
Is it something that I'm missing out?
If it werent for this everything would be great about this rom!
Yes. I agree. I do not see much advantage in using GB to Froyo as of now. If only we could port the screen off CRT animation to Froyo, it would have been great. But it seems to be built deep into the framework. Check this link.
I had the problems you mentioned with the CM7 alpha release and IceandFire ROM.
Whereas on Shadowmod and Hobomod , the phone is seriously zippy! The latter being slightly better!

Really. I will try them and report back later No need to wipe anything when moving from CM7 to Shadow or Hobo right?
A full Data/factory reset is advised at least thats what i did.
I did 2 Wipes from the stock recovery and then 3 wipes from Androiddiani OR 3.3.

I would reccomend wiping before moving to either rom (just to be safe), though you won't need a wipe for moving between my mod and shadow and vice versa.
Also, if you can wait about 7 hours, I should have a new version of hobomod up

It seems that the guys dont work anymore on putting the CRT animation into FROYO. I mean it would be great but it's pretty difficult to do it because it's very well coded inside the framework, something like that.
Froyo? Wait a minute... Oh, yes Froyo! You mean that ancient Android version that will not receive any more fixes and enhancements... Hmm, Froyo. OK, enjoy it.

Come on, Gingerbread is nowhere near perfect yet on Milestone
As for animations, everyone who attempted it indeed failed, its probably possible but hard.

After searching all over the internet i could only find one flash 2.1 that actually worked on the hero.. http://www.androidpit.com/en/androi...tall-Flash-10-1-On-Android-2-1-Eclair-Devices
BUT.. it only works on stock for some reason.. could we get this in cynanogenmod?
Screenshots Below:
The hulu, kongregate, and sony pictures websites will not load those main screen advertisements unless you have flash 10.1 or higher. also included is the flash checker from adobe's website -http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/-
I think you mean flash 10.1, lol, anyway, there are some sense roms that have flash lite, but not 10.1 that I know of, can you CONFIRM this works on your phone? I don't really care about flash, just curious. My memory tells me flash and aosp don't work/haven't yet worked, and the only time there was flash lite in a heroc ROM was on sense based roms....
I think you're right. Any time I've ever seen Flash 10x was in a sense ROM and I kind of miss it being I run GB. Personally I'd like to know if this works as well and what ROM you're using this on.
I think he's looking for a way to get flash 10.1 on cm7, he’s not running it.

Flash 10.1 cannot run on our Arm6 processors. Flash lite is in some sense ROMs. It has been discussed in depth and you should be able to search and find the threads on it.

Looks like they just confirmed it runs on stock 2.1, and last I checked, flashing a rom does not change your processor.

Works on your phone. Running a stock 2.1 rom. As you can see in the discussion in the link you posted, only people with HTC phones running stock/Sense roms can run it. Flash Lite only works with Sense. Enjoy.

However, there won't be a pure aosp rom running flash because of the ARM6 processor. Here is a great read. If I remember right they even discuss why/how it is able to work in your 2.1 Sense ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=806410&highlight=adobe

This is a flashable ROM from generated from 911Sniper's Incredible_C_GB_S_VERIZON_WWE_4.01.605.0. This is test build from HTC and may be buggier than a typical release. It includes all applications and original vendor configuration. In other words, it is untouched with the exception of the following:
Rooted with my customized version of Superuser (required until ChainsDD releases a version with my patches).
Busybox installed in /system/xbin.
There are no other changes. Just to be blindingly clear, this is NOT Virtuous; although a future version of Virtuous may be based on this ROM. Anyone building ROMs is welcome to use this as a base.
Disclaimer: This is a one-time release. Unless a problem can be identified with the changes mentioned above (rooting, deodexing, etc), it will not be updated or supported. In other words, use this as-is or find a ROM which uses this release as its' base if you would like support and/or expect to see changes.

I've been wanting to try it out but it hasn't updated. I've also tried to install it manually but it doesn't install. I believe it's cause I'm running 2.3.7 and hero doesn't officially support 2.3

I'm amazed of pace of ICS development for Hero.
Too bad our Pulse device (msm7200a) failed to hold ICS properly due to minimal RAM on it.
Your development helped me to fix trackball, being as a mouse pointer before.
Good luck.

""Shooter on Deck""
It just won't let me RUU it. Keeps giving me a USB error. And it won't let me install none of the sense Roms, or Radios. So, instead of messing with the updates, it at least allowed me to install the last cyanogen nightly.
Can you believe the sprint store kept him on Cupcake? They must have really wanted him to upgrade to a new phone. He took it in last week and that's what they recommended. He fell back in love with the phone when I updated it.

My setup is clockwork 2.5, and Rom is the last cyan nightly; which is 252. Cpu is 710, jit, non firat, regular setup, ex explorer, with every eye candy feature disabled.
What I was trying to do is setup two roms. One being sense and one not. Was going to use sense to change the prl and update the latest radios, then switch over to the nightly, but it just wouldn't work out that way.
Funny about the nand. I did do one, but gave me a md5 error when I tried to put it back. I've never came across such a troublesome Hero before. But, you know how that goes, there's always that "one" that wants to be unique.
But at least I got him running on the nightly. So he's really excited about his Hero again. Now people are not receiving his text hours later like before. His girlfriend is happy.
