Wipe everything, data, cache, and dalvik, and flash away.

Don't forget to make a nandroid of your current setup before you start wiping and flashing.

Nandroid error

I needed to upgrade my prl so I made a nandroid of CM6.0 stable. Upgraded my prl with fresh then proceeded to restore the nandroid. It gave me the error to run nandroid-mobile.sh in adb.
So, I did what some people said to do. I cleaned my SD card and repartitioned it. I have over 5gb free and still the same error. Help?

Have you tried pulling the battery and going into recovery again?
Sometimes that works.

Did you rename your nandroid file? I did that a couple times and was never able to restore them until I changed the name of the file back to what it was originally.
+1 you can rename nandroids just as long as you don't use any spaces... you can name it: CM6.October.10 but not CM6 October 10

[Q] Selling my hero: How do I wipe it clean of personal information?

I am running the latest Cyanogen Mod on a HTC Hero CDMA and have decided to sell my phone and get an EVO. I have sold it on ebay and now need to wipe it and reinstall Cyanogen Mod. What is the best way to be sure the phone is clean of private data before reinstalling Cyanogen? I want to be sure all backups are gone, images, etc.
Here is what I was thinking:
Reformat a fresh microSD card, add cyanogen zip, flash cyanogen mod using clockwork recovery. Am I done?
Don't I need to wipe the phone's internal memory?
Thanks for help.
Has the phone been transferred to the new line already?
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
that makes no sense they arent going to be able to activate it with cyanogen installed
Boot into recovery and wipe.
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
As other have stated, they won't be able to activate the new line if cyanogenmod is installed.
I am about to hand off my old hero to a family member, and I think I am just going to flash the last version of fresh. It is my understanding that fresh still has the ability to update the profile and PRL which would be necessary to provision data services after transferring to a new phone number.
Out of curiosity how much $ did your hero fetch you? (gonna sell mine too!)
Thanks

What you should do is get the latwar ruin from htcs website and load that on. But if they want the phone rooted then your method makes sense

Update prl manually

How do I do it I can't send and receive texts
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
You have to do it from a Sense rom.
Nand, flash any Sense rom, update profile and prl, send a few texts, receive a few, nand back to whatever you were running. I keep a Sense nand on my sd card just for this reason.
Also, search is your friend.

I have the prl file. But where do I get a sense nand? Please help.
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
You make one. When you flash a sense rom you make a backup. I don't know where you got a prl file from, but you don't need it.

Lets try this a different way.
1. Are you rooted?
2. If so, what rom are you running?
3. What recovery?
4. What is your current prl?
Answer these and we can get you fixed.

Yes
Aospmod 0.9.9.2
Clockworkmod latest stable 2.5.0.7 I think
60671
I want 60677
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
Ok, good.
1. Find any Sense rom on here. Liquid Sense or nfx are both good choices, and download.
2. Go into your recovery and make a backup.
3. Wipe everything, data, dalvik, cache, and flash the sense rom.
4. Once booted up, update your prl and profile. DO NOT check for updates. Just profile and prl.
5. Once they have updated and applied, you should start getting text messages. Send out a couple, get a couple.
6. Boot back to your recovery and make a backup of the sense rom.
7. Restore your aospmod backup.
Done and done.

Before I restore back to the ROM I want (step 7), should I wipe everything again?
Meh, doesn't really matter. You can if you want to.

Ok here is the problem that i'm having when ever I start stitcher radio on my phone I get an error message saying " Activity Stitcher player (in application stitcher) is not responding.. This is the only app I've had problems with so far that I know of...

I had no problem with this app when I was running asop cmod7... I tried clearing out the cache for the app that didn't work... I haven't tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app to see if that clears out the prolem...

Try uninstalling and reinstalling. If it's one app and not "apps" then it's probably not the rom.

I had to do a system/data wipe then reflash the rom "teamheroc" but now I'm trying to figure out how to get back the apps I saved to the SD card ... I can get them back if I do a recovery from nandroid but it goes back to a different rom " asop cmod " that I had running when I backed up my phone... Or am I sol and have to download the apps again from the apps store..

Titanium Pro is the best for ROM flashing/backing up...tons of options for saving apps with/without data or system settings (bluetooth,wifi,calendar,etc). Best money I ever spent in the app store. Also tons of batch restore features.

Depending on how technically inclined you are and whether or not you understand everything I'm about to say, you can unyaffs your nandroid data.img and get your apk's. Then you can flash or push them or even install them from your SD card.
Google "unyaffs nandroid". It's not hard to do.

Puzzled???? Do you mean the apps you had moved to your sd??? As in you went.in to settings/applications/manage applications and moved the apps to the sd instead of running them from the phone?? Are you referring to those apps???
