Stock CDMA Hero w/ Root

I am looking for the 2.1 sprint stock hero rom that has been rooted and can be flashed via recovery menu. I normally don't ask questions, i've looked but can't find. Link would help very much.
Thanks

I've been looking for the same, or roms based of the official release at least.
So far it looks like DamageControl 2.09 is the only one. The rest are based off of the signed leak.

Here is the version based off the last leak (it's in the first post, second download link) : http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc-hero-roms-hacks/9522-sprint-2-1-leak.html
Damage might be the closest ROM based off the Final Sprint release (Fresh has the removed apks for download @geekfor.me if you need them).

this the one created by damage

HI,
A very quick summary to get you started:
The Nook color will boot first from a bootable external uSD card - so it can
be easier to 'try out' different ROMs without worrying about bricking the
device.
The internal flash memory is called 'emmc'.
You can root the stock ROMs, either the 1.01 or the 1.1 versions both are
based on Android 2.1, Eclair. You get Android market access this way and
can continue to use the stock Nook eBook app. There are rumors that
a version of Android 2.2, Froyo, with a B&N market is soon to be available.
Android 2.2, Froyo is available by ROM developers for installing on either
the internal memory or to run from external uSD cards. See for example
Nookie Froyo 6.8 in the developer section.
Android 2.3, GingerBread, is available as a pre-release from the
developers of CyanogenMOD ROMS, it is called CyanogenMOD7. They
release a new version almost every night, termed 'nightlies'. There is
a version for internal emmc or from someone else to run on uSD.
Current (3/23) versions have low frame rate hardware codec video
playback, but seem very stable otherwise. Phiremod makes a ROM
based on CM7.
Android 3.0, HoneyComb, has a very early release, based on
SDK version, not full source code.
To dual boot, see the thread in the developers section.
To overclock, see Dalingrin's kernels in the developer section.
To install new kernels and ROMs, see the ClockworkMOD (CWM) recovery thread
in the developer section.
Running a ROM from uSD can be as easy as downloading an image file,
on a PC, burning the image to uSD with "win32diskimager", then booting the
NC with the uSD inserted!
I am running CM7 nightlies and update when there are significant changes
or perhaps weekly - everything I have wanted to do has been working well.
Phiremod 5.1, based on CM7 is another good place to start.
As the NC has only one bottom button, you will also need some type
of on screen button system or button remapping to the volume buttons.
Most ROMs have something in them. I have liked Button Savior from the
market best.

[Q] latest "stable" ClockworkMod recovery version?

Pardon my noobiness... I am trying to find where to download the latest CWM version for a heroc and more importantly a matrix showing the latest stable releases by phone model. I have downloaded the latest CM6/CM7 and gapps builds and they have nice matrices showing which latest version is recommended for each phone, but nothing for CWM.
I have ROM Manager installed to the phone, and 2.5.0.7 is shown as my current recovery. When I look at the "older/experimental" list, I see 2.5.1.1, 2.5.1.3, 2.5.1.4 are available for flashing. Not sure if these are experimental or if ROM Mgr just doesn't upgrade to newer version of CWM automatically.
Also, I have found the instructions for getting v3.0.0.5 (or newer) installed by fooling ROM Mgr to think it's one of the above "other" versions. I have seen posts that CM7 requires version CWM v3.x and plenty of people running v3.0.0.5 or newer on their cdma Hero's but the xda "official" instructions for rooting/etc show 2.5.0.7 as the latest release (instructions were written some time ago, not sure if the ver# for CWM is up to date).
what am I missing? or am I just being too careful?

CM7 doesn't require CWM 3.0.x, actually.

good to know. Any clarification on CWM versions and compatibility with Hero or any benefit of using a particular one?

I'm using 3.0.2.4, found here

the 2.xxx versions of cwm will flash both amend script (old) and edify script (new). The 3.xxx versions are the newest and therefore "best", but they only flash edify, so depending on what script your zips have, some may not flash. Try them all out, pick your favorite, like ROMs, also, here's some kindof related info in another recovery thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12467895&postcount=4

il Duce, thanks for the explanation - provided the clarification I was looking for. I'm just a casual modder because I hated HTC Sense (the slowness mostly) and needed a phone that was usable, so until I buy my big boy hacker pants, I'll stick with CWM 2.5.x.x since it will flash CM7 and still work with the older scripts.

From what I've been reading, the 2.x.x.x versions are "official" and all 3.x.x.x versions are unoffical custom-made versions. That's why the app doesn't come with the orange colored 3.x versions.

This. The 3.x versions I've posted are unofficial and built from the latest CyanogenMod source. The latest official release from Koush is 2.5.0.7.

[Q] Install a theme on a stock rom ??

As the title says, is there anyway to do this ?
To be honest i want to flash the overcome ROM with the ICS theme but my friend said that my tab may get hardware brick if I flashed another ROM, Is he right or wrong ?
I'm new to android I used to have a Symbian phone and I flashed so many Firmwares without any problem. Is it different in Android ?
Thanks

Just Do It!
Simply follow the instructions for Overcome. I am a n00b also and am successfully running Overcome 4 ROM - it's fairly simple.
The overcome site is down for some reason but if you follow this thread...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1317384
...you'll be fine. Instructions below (it's a screenshot of the instructions page when it was online - the files you'll have to locate yourself (google!))

Almost giving up now...

Ok I have a GT P1000 (belongs to a friend)...
AND ALL I WANT IS A DAMN CM10.1!!
No clear instructions how to go to CM10.1 from CM9
No clear instructions where to change from CWM to TWRP
No clear instructions on how to fix errors
No clear instructions on how to 'restock' either (There are like a plethora of "restock" ROMs and have no clue which one to flash when).
PLz people..I am not angry..just upset..can any1 help.. plz?
PS: I have tried flashing CM10.1 by Alroger/Cdesai and the Touchwiz 4.2.2 and all three give me Status 7. There is absolutely no way I can change the recovery or fix this error. Is this some MD5 checksums issue?

Don't multi post your problem.
It is so simple. Most instruction for CM10.1 ask you to restock, so just do it.
You were in sos_sifou's overcome thread. Use that. If you forgot where, see my signature.
1) You better don't go from cm9 to cm10 directly, for reasons I mentioned there in reply to you.
2) You don't need to change from CWM to TWRP, when you flash the new ROM, it comes with TWRP in it's kernel. P1000 does not have separate partition for recovery. It has to be included in the kernel.
3) not everyone encounters your error
4) any of the restock instruction will likely work. If you haven't even tried, why didn't you? Safest is to use overcome method.
your status 7 will go away with overcome method.

Hi guy
The dude speaks true but you might want a bit of hand holding.
Alterbridge, a genius contributor, wrote a ROM in gingerbread called the overcome ROM for the p1 version of the tab based on leaked Samsung code. His latest version was called kratos and was really quite amazing. The overcome ROM can be downloaded from mirrors that are provided regularly on the xda SG tab site. Find using search p1 overcome from xda.
Loading this leaked GB ROM is called restocking and brings you to a vanilla system with few problems. Most people use Odin to load it under windows or heimdall under Linux. Both are pretty easy. They do erase anything on the sdcard though, so be careful.
This provides a stable base from which to install ICS and jb versions mostly championed by humberos, sbradymobile and cdsai. The 10.0 version mostly works. 10.1 has a broken front camera for selfie fans to lament but recent improvements to the battery life provides redemption. I like 10.1.
10.2 is still a bit wobbly but works well enough and gives the cutting edge if you can handle it.
To progress you have to find overcome and Odin / heimdall. Flash of and follow the prompts. This will give you a rooted tab under gingerbread and cw recovery.
Entering recovery you can flash any of the 10.x ROMs and the gapps zip and experience the latest android versions. Really quite amazing. Use too manager to find the latest gapps zip and the 10.1 daily uploads.
Hope this helps, read lots of xda and Google cm 10.1 BBQ to find the latest stable stuff.
Happy exploring, follow the guides precisely on the first posts of a thread to get updates and current info and to avoid bricks. Good luck, it's really rewarding to follow these amazing folks and their work.

Actually, Kratos was before overcome 4.1
If not mistaken, the alphabetical released ends with K (kratos) was for 3.x series.
