NEED SERIOUS HELP WITH CDMA HERO ON SPRINT. After rooting, downloading ROM Manager, & applying various ROM's due to rebooting issue finally was able to apply Cyanogen Mod version: 6.0.0-Heroc but now I'm totally unable to REACTIVATE MY SERVICE ON SPRINT! I sat on hold with Sprint's supposed "Tech Support" last night for not resolution to the issue. I came to the conclusion that Hero won't accept any provisional programming codes. Anyone, anyone, ANYONE know an answer to this issue, experienced the same issue, have an explanation for this issue? I am a former manager with Sprint so not a complete imbecile with phones/computers/techy. devices but this has me completely baffled & stuck using my old HTC Touch Pro until this issue is resolved. Thanks in advance.

Reactivate your service? Were you trying to activate it after rooting and loading cm6?? aosp does not support ## codes...why don't you load the sprint ruu and then activate your phone and then root, flash a custom recovery (use clockwork in the rom manager app you have) and then load cm6

Thanks!
I really appreciate your suggestion and was wondering if the ROM was unequipped to do any carrier provisioning after-the-fact. I'im definitely going to do as you instructed, which had struck me as an option, but, was a little freaked out to start applying different ROMs not in ROM Manager App since for the most part of the week my "Hero" has been inoperable, unprovisioned, or buggy in one way or another. Will attempt this tonight and post-up the outcome!
You could try Fresh 2.4, its a pretty solid sense based rom....let me know if you need anything else

Funny you should mention that, too because I just got done downloading Fresh App. before going to xda to check if anyomore feedback on my post. Thanks, again, for the advice & are going to start on fixing this issue at this very moment.

Someone else that I was helping with this same thing flashed the liquid sense rom and got all his missed texts, like I did with fresh then came back to cm6 and everything was fine, so this should solve your problem too, but let me know...

Should've replied earlier but was too busy celebrating the usage of my Hero, again! Lol! So, did as advised above & did esn swap before flashing to Fresh & no problems. Thinking I want to go to Cyanogen instead but a little weary because of previous issues, any advise, should I give it a shot?

I'm glad I was able to help you! I would not hesitate to go to CM now that you are up and running again, it should flash nice and smooth! Let me know if you need any more help!

Hey all, very new here in the android world. Brand new samsung I have and I would like fix the lag in it. I did do the update to froyo through the kies interface. I hear voodoo is the best to fix the lag with but I have not yet rooted my phone, however, on project voodoo.org they say you don't need to. The update.zip is ready escaping me, not sure what they mean by it. I do know the 3 button recovery mode. Buy I am still a noob at this. Please, any help would vastly appreciated.

I would start by reading the Stickies in the development section. Specifically the READ THIS FIRST one. It has a lot of the information you will need.
Cool man, I'll start there first. Thanx.

I just got my tablet yesterday and it seems to crash pretty often... it would vibrate once, freeze, then vibrate a few more times before it freezes and FC whatever I'm doing.
What should I do?
(From what I can tell, the sprint version is the least popular version )

Try to root it first, and change your rom and kernel. Did you install any applications or whatever that are, well, funny?
Moved to Q&A.........
Nope no funny stuff, completely stock. A lot of people have problem roofing the sprint one after ota so I didn't bother... guess I'll give it a shot.

I got screwed up by the stupid AT&T update... it only half finished. I don't know why. I kept telling it NO, not to update. But at some point it must have on a reboot. In the update section it says, "Continue update" but clicking that does absolutely nothing.
UNFORTUNATELY, now I have NO WIFI and NO BLUETOOTH. Can't see any wifi routers now, and can't see any bluetooth devices. UGH! DAMN AT&T! I didn't even ask for an update. SO....
HELP ME PICK A ROM!
I used to flash ROMs on my older PocketPC phones... I flashed a Gingerbread ROM on my Galaxy Tab, and I flashed a ROM on my HTC Aria.
So tell me what your opinions are about some ROMs. Here's some features I'd like to have:
- ICS
- Newest Sense
- HTC's button dial command and voice dial that was left out of ICS (bastards).
- Native wifi hotspot
If there's a ROM that combines that and is STABLE, tell me about it! I want opinions.
There's really only one option and it's not on xda.

Are you just gonna leave me hanging with that?
I'm by no means an expert, but I've recently taken the dive into helping a friend with his AT&T Vivid. After looking around at all the ICS ROMs out there, the one I settled on was Extreme Holiday Dream X2...doesn't have the newest sense version, but it's running 3.6, so it's fairly recent. Also (again, not an expert), I'm not sure any newer version of sense would work on the Vivid.
Now as a heads up, most people don't seem to have issues with the ROM (and it is a very nice one), but we have had some problems that may or may not be related. First is WiFi constantly attempting to turn on and never working, which I think I've narrowed down to the fact the ROM uses the stock kernel, so I'll be attempting to fix that tonight.
Other problem is the ROM Toolbox not working, though I think that may be linked to the way I rooted the device since SU isn't giving permissions to it (set to auto-allow). That I'll be attempting to fix with SuperSU.
I know this ROM is stable for just about everyone else so far (no actual known bugs), but I don't know if it meets your last two prerequisites, since I'm not really all that familiar with Android devices in general yet. I'll ask my friend and see if he knows.
Due to my permissions right now as a new member, I can't link you to it, but you should be able to find it by googling. The thread I found was on rootzwiki.
Hope this helps. If I find out more about the button dial/voice dial and native WiFi hotspot support, I'll let you know.
EDIT: So I asked about the features, seems like it has the button dialer and native WiFi Hotspot, but not the voice dialer. I'm sure there's an app for it, but it's not native.
Google the rom in my signature

Except that WC's forum is down. Is there an alternative way to get the ROM and kernel?

Hi all,
My first post, and as of yesterday my first custom ROM. Despite some sweaty moments it worked fine thanks to the guidance on this forum and some leaps of faith Can't reply to the relevant thread directly since I'm n00b.
Was very happy with this, however one killer issue that's meant I've had to revert to stock is that Google Talk (installed via GApps link with the ROM) crashes to desktop (no FC dialog) when i attempt to use voice or video within it. Skype seems to work fine though. Anyone else experienced this? I haven't seen it previously reported on here which makes me think maybe I didn't clear something properly (I used cwm recovery 5.5.0.4 to wipe cache, factory reset and clear dalvik prior to flash). I tried repeating the entire upgrade twice from scratch but same issue is still apparent.
Thanks for the coolness and hopeful for some help and further development.

Hey.
You're not the only one. I have the same issue with Google Talk. I, like you, thought that I wasn't installing something right. I even went as far as using an outdated gapps package, namely 20120726, to no avail. If you've gotten help with this, please let me know. Otherwise, I have no idea what else to do. I don't want to revert to stock because, quite frankly, its terrible. Also, to anyone else reading this, any help would be appreciated.
Try uninstalling talk after you've flashed the Rom and then reinstalling it. Had a similar problem with Google search.

I just checked the tablet and i dont see an option for uninstalling the app. just force close and disable. I also checked the play store to try and download the app, but i dont see it in there. maybe i'm missing something? like i said before, any help would be appreciated.
I'm not familiar with Google talk, is it the same as voice. To uninstall you'll need tibu or something like that.
I did find talk to chat in the play store which maybe the same thing you're talking about

Hey, I just want to thank you for your response. Its been a big help. Unfortunately, google talk isn't the same as voice. Its the chat client that is found in gmail and stuff. They just have a separate app for it on android devices. I think i may just use skype to video chat since i can't seem to find a fix for this and I can't bring myself to go back to the stock rom. If anyone happens to find a fix or knows of one, please let us know. Thanks.
same problem here

gtalk doesn't work
My first ROM as well and facing the same problem with GTalk. Skype & Hangout on Google+ works fine. I was also wondering probably i missed a step.
But this ROM is so awesome don't want to restore. Other problems I am facing is that USB is not getting recognized on tablet and 3G not working. Any of you facing similar problem with 3G and USB?

As far as 3G, my tablet is the WiFi only, so I can't help you there.
With the usb, have you tried turning on the MTP setting? When you connect the tablet, go to settings>storage> and in the upper right hand side of the screen, if you press on the 3 dot things, you are going to see USB computer connection. press that and you will see the option to turn on MTP. I hope this helps.
Thanks for the replies, glad to know I'm not alone with g talk. Finally got stock ics ota but it's terrible! Prime example is Swype keyboard often appears the size of a credit card. Going back to cm as soon as talk fixed also had the USB issue but didn't try the workaround

it's all good. it happens to us all. I guess its a matter of waiting to see if anyone else realizes there is a problem and issues a fix of some sort. Int any event, i'm sticking to this rom until they find a fix.
