Hey all, I have an Evo 4G and have no damn clue what I'm doing to this old hero, but I've managed to root it with z4root. The problem is I can't access a computer to perform an adb recovery flash and I also can't find Rom manager..
I've tried downloading rom manager from an outside source but it always says error parsing package.
I'd like to know if I can download the proper app or if I can run an ruu without a computer. (I'm not a total noob, I've been around the block a few times..)
Software version: 2.32.651.2
HBOOT: 1.47
Here is a link to rom manger which I know works. Hopefully you can install this one.

Went with hexperia. Its not activated so its more or less a toy for my little bro. He wanted to play cut the rope but the stock Rom could only install a 15Mb app before a low space warning. lol.. the bloatware is crazy. Running smooth with lots of space now.
Lol Sweet. You firate it?

Yeah. Look into the Development section. It allows us to repartition space on the Hero to open up more space.
Pretty neat stuff there. Can't wait until they do it for the EVO 3D.

I agree, XDA has changed, but a lot of people are still dedicated...jcase, ivanmmj just to name a few.
I will try this tonight...
My initial guess is it SHOULD work... I have root and am running a custom ROM... so I will update and let you know tonight.
UPDATE: it installs, launches, but when I select "Start checks" it wont execute the system check... I might try a different version and see how that plays out.
thank you very much android!
i appreciate u comming in and making the effort here.
Got it to pass the System check, after updating to ROM 2.1 V.5.5.. works so far...

I just remove Sense for every ROM I install because I like nexuslauncher so much better lol.

Eh, I tried using metamorph on jamezelle's Sense-able 2.0 rom as well. I couldn't get all that I wanted to apply. Going on Stericson's post about metamorph (if you can't tell, this is the first time I'd ever used the program ) I assume there's not enough room in the /system partition. I have no idea how to fix that so I could do an entire theme (noob alert!).
but I did manage to change some images.
I'd love to see some themes for the eris

Lol, yeah. I have been giving it a good try, but I just don't understand enough about the process to do it well..
would any of the themes already made for sense ui be able to be ported over to the eris?

Hey people,
Can someone with a download server post the RUU exe for those of us that want to download from here so that we can get at it there are some screwy things going on at HTC's site prompts for ftp credentials and the like. Any help would be greatly appreciated....if you're worried about crashing I'll gladly take a PM of the link

Seriously? It will break root even if you are already rooted and using a custom rom?
WTF?
Also, if it's the same as the leak does that mean bluetooth is still jacked up?

you will loose root forever? Forever means never and I highly doubt that it would never be rooted again.

The likely hood of us actually rooting a 2.1 build is there, but it is going to take a long time. Someone with the know how is going to have to either A. Buy a Hero - unlikely after June 4th or B. A dev will take the dive a load it just to find root.
Eris only has root because of a rom that was leaked with root still in it. They were never able to find an exploit.
Droid guys are actually having to load there 2.0.1 OS back to root the new ones.
It is entirely possible that this phone never finds root again.

Both are one in the same. MD5's match on both files.
will be mirroring when I get it uploaded as well.
so do i REALLY need th htc sync???
Thanks for the mirrors guys it finally came thru now I'm just trying to download htc sync to my work pc so I can update... I'm not too worried about root, blah, blah. Someone will crack it at some point when there's something better to do with it. I'm putting 2.1 on my phone to hold me over until I can upgrade to the EVO or Nexus One once Sprint get's it .
Thanks again for the guys that stepped up to mirror the host!
Someone please post how to flash custom image for hboot so I can put custom roms on again

okay I recently got my phone and upgraded to 2.1 from the sprint website before I learned what rooting was. I don't want to do anything fancy I just want to get rid of the pre-installed apps that I don't need so the phone will run faster, is there a way to get this done now?

No, sorry, you're SOL until a root exploit is found.
well I just downloaded qpst and it has this option to backup restore image could I use the image off of my other phone With root and place it on my phone without root?
i'm not a dev, but how hard would it be to port cyanogen mod 6 to the vogue.
if somebody could give me a tutorial on how to do it i would love to bring it to you guys
i already have a computer with xubuntu on it (should work fine for the SDK) and i have the SDK downloaded but from there i got nothing, i am still not sure i even need the SDK for this port
I've got it ported, if you guys are okay waiting a couple of days I'll post it
Sweet your the man my touch will def be getting some tinkering with when you release this

Here you go, I've not got any plans to keep this updated as I just put it together for my wifes vogue. Everything works. See the cyanogen mod faq for answers to most of your questions.
It shows two copies of the file. I'm not sure why, but they're both the same.

Anyone trying this build want to compare it to dzo's?
anybody having problems getting this to boot?
you'll probably have to wipe data
i did wipe data, just put the newest nbh on the phone at 240x320
before it goes to the boot screen it says something
mount: system/xbin/su failed no such file or directory exist
can i just rename this to an update and update it over incubus rls10? (running off haret)

No, it's a totally different build, just updating will leave files from the old build and will end up being messy. At best you may be able install the system without wipig data.
I cant get it to boot.. it gets stuck at the boot animation and loops. im using latest froyo kernel on vogue.
Try using a 320x480 nbh if having problems booting.
EDIT: Sorry, for some reason I was thinking this was a sense build.
