New to rooting....got a few questions before I try.

I searched and did not find anything...sorry if i missed something...
Alright so I am looking at rooting and only thing that worries me is if i have to send the phone in. How can i make it look like I did not root it. Is there any downside to rooting and what can I do with a rooted phone. Thanks everyone

It's really simple to make it go back to stock, just use the Sprint RUU in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=608434
Downside to rooting might be if you don't have a permissions manager installed you could give root access to malicious program. Haven't heard of it happening yet, but it can.
As for what can be done with a rooted phone, the possibilities are endless...

once you root and flash a recovery rom your all set to go...also do a backup in case. there are a couple really good roms out there, i recommend fresh 1.1 and gumbo kernel. there are some really great themes out there as well. as the above poster said the possibilities are endless and in time we will have as many new roms and themes as the gsm users have.
most important, have fun!

Where can I get the ROMs? I can't seem to find them....and with my luck they are in some place obvious.

There is a sticky at the top of these forums which gives a nice link.
To make it easy, it takes you here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=CDMA Hero ROMs

there is a sticky at the top of the forum that has all of the ROMs in a Wiki site. look there

haha just like I thought...It was in plain sight. Well after trying a couple of ROMs i fell with Fresh....but i've noticed that my clock does not display the weather anymore...whats up with that?

Go into menu, weather, update and then give it a min. If it still doesnt refresh, put your phone in stand by and come back.

Nothing. The weather widget has no problems and syncs just fine and shows the correct weather but the clock refuses to. I think everything is set correctly yet it does not want to show.

Did you try soft resetting your phone or even removing the widget and adding it back to the homescreen?

both. Neither worked oddly. I dont know...ill mess with the GPS and wifi settings also and see if that fixes it. that isnt the biggest problem ever. If you have any idea on whats wrong though let me know.

I have rooted my phone and I am an addict. I am here everyday for about an hour. You will have fun with it. I recommend that before once you root it and get your first rom installed play with it for a while but dont get comfortable. I have used all the roms available for the hero except one of them. My advice to you is install one play with it them switch and use them all before you start installing all of your apps and customizing it. I have put three hours into customizing my phone with a rom and then Im like ooh a and install another rom and I have to start over LOL. You will have fun if you like to tinker I guarantee it. Have fun and good luck.

While I am thinking about it....can I make my lock screen any more useful. I find this so plain

sorry for the double post but I wanted this to bump up. Clock will not show the weather anymore...anyone have a fix? also any way to put something on the lock screen?

[Rom][Port] xXBabiboi228Xx{Manila Carbon Fiber 2.2™} from EVO *UPDATED 1/21*

I'm making this thread to avoid confusion now that there is a working port.
Well just heard back from xxbabiboi228xx and trock79 apparently will be using parts of his rom in the future, but until then.
Here is my port, everything seems to work and I do not intend on maintaining this. Hope this works out for anyone who wants it.
This is a straight port of xxbabiboi228xx's rom! I did not have anything to do with the development of this rom and take no credit for doing so, only for making it work on the inc.

build 2:
Cleaned up the sprint stuff and added the gingerbread keyboard. Htc keyboard still there by default. Also added the htc lock screen back with an optional download for the vanilla lockscreen in the first post. You can try a flash over and it should work, but I recommend a full wipe, quite a bit was changed. Let me know if flash over works out if you try. Trimmed 10mb's off.
build 3:
Updated to new host rom (xxbabiboi228xx' 2.4) Changed battery indicator to vertical green with percentage (gingerbread style). Theme changed a little bit here and there.
Integrated rosie right key setting (internet icon still present after change) and notification toggle widget changer (PowerControl settings)
No more bootloop on first boot (you don't have to wait to see the lockscreen twice anymore)
New clean and simple bootanimation, very nice in my opinion
bugs known:
4g settings and sprint apps are still present
Other than that, nothing else that I know of
I have tested:
browser
phone
mms and sms
wifi
bluetooth
gps
market
camera with flash
camcorder (720)
mail and facebook sync
Just to be clear I do not intend to maintain this rom. If anyone else wants to take over from here, great! Its a really nice looking rom for sure. I only did this because it was requested and I liked the look of it. The rom runs great, check it out!

Thanks br125 for all your efforts again!! Wanted to be the first one to thank you !
Now if we can get that haptic feedback in the dialer, the lock screen, and the GB keyboard, we'll be money, LOL!
Again, thank you so much for your hard work, and the hard work of BabiBoi! Also the upcoming support from trock79!
You guys are awesome, thank you again!

I will download and I would love to help by supporting this. Let me know what is needed and I am sure I can make it happen...

This ROM is very fast. Has anyone found a way to easily change the toggles in the power control pulldown?
Nice work babiboi and thanks for porting br125.

It's pretty much the theme that makes it what it is. I'd suggest checking out the evo thread for more information. Its a nice rom, runs smooth and looks great, everything is themed very nicely

Does it say sprint on your guys phones?

@synisterwolf: Doesn't say Sprint for me, that is, if you meant the Operator Name/Logo. As br125 mentioned though, the Sprint apps should be present in the ROM. I hope that answers your question?
@Lsdozer: The easy answer to your question is, edit the file called, widget.txt, to your liking.
The file resides in system\customize I believe.
Unfortunately, the tool br125 posted, is only for the Cyanogen ROMs I think. And for the life me, I have been unable to effectively change that text file, using Root Explorer, ES Explorer, and SUManager. People swear that this is the easiest task to take care of, but for me, I have tried it all, when trying to edit from within the phone, and nothing has worked. If you consider editing the file on your computer and push it to your phone, one thing to consider is that I read somewhere that the file has to have a UNIX signature on it, for it to work. This is the reason why I was adamant to try to edit the file, while it was on my phone, well... that and because I have no idea how to push files using ADB or something to my phone... Hope this helps, please let me know if it works for you. If it does, please post what you did, thanks!
On separate notes guys, does anyone know how to restore haptic feedback to the lockscreen, when unlocking? The original ROM came with the Sense the lockscreen, as default, but I believe br125's port defaults to the Vanilla lockscreen.
Other things we can think about is:
1. Figuring out which kernels are working out well on the ROM, since it has now been ported to the Incredible.
2. Maybe getting that Gingerbread keyboard on here ?
Thanks once again to br125, Babiboi, and, trock79 as well!

I will take a look at gettin haptic working for you, i took out the htclockscreen when I ported it and forgot to add it back in. xxbabiboi228xx said that he will be releasing 2.4 tonight most likely and I'll have some free time tomorrow that I could possibly add in his changes/fixes.
As for kernels, any inc. sense kernel will (should) work. ie. incredikernel, heyitslou's kernel etc.
I've flashed Lou's kernel and it works great, I'm currently at 77% and been using it off the charger for about 7 hours or so
edit: the notification toggles shouldn't be hard to get the 4g outta there and add more useful things and I'll put the gingerbread keyboard in there if it works when I take a look at it. Basically I wanna clean up all the sprint leftovers and make it not seem like a port

Sounds great Sir! You are the man !
BTW, I tried getting some of the GB keyboard flashed over into the ROM, from the forum. Maybe it's my luck, but I have never actually gotten a single keyboard flashed successfully through to recovery. Whether it was the EVO or the DInc, same results...
This was no exception of course ...

Much thanks to OP for download link fix. Playing with ROM and very nice. Only things so far unable to access photos, video or music on SD card. Am I missing something?
Thanks for the nice work!

Ran fix permissions and rebooted and fixed photos and videos but still music app does not pick up music on SD.
Edit: now picking up music! Guess needed to give it more time. Maybe that will get Navigation working. Maps work fine but Nav still not.

This ROM can works with Cricket?

[MOD] AdeoMOD - Navalynt Style (for Adeo v.02)

Based on DesignGears Adeo (REDUX) v0.2
I know I have a lot of people to specifically credit/thank but it's 12:30am here and I'm ready to fall asleep at the keyboard! I will have to revisit this in the morning and check for any feedback you all have.
BTW, Battle:LA, AWESOME MOVIE!
So I did a bit of theming after I got the services.jar file edited to support transparency in the notification drop-down. I also made the following additions to the ROM:
AppWidgetPicker
Playstation App
Fenny's WebTop Mod
Adobe Flash 10.2
Titanium Backup
Larger APNs list (apns-conf.xml) for unlocked phones
This is packed up with the Adeo v0.2 update since DesignGears did such a great job of scripting that update. You *should* be ok to re-apply this over v0.2 but I have not tested that myself.
INSTALL AT YOUR OWN PERIL - THIS HAS ONLY BEEN TESTING WORKING ON MY OWN HANDSET
DOWNLOAD LINK
Also included in the download file are the icon/dock images I used with LauncherPro which you will see in the screenshots.
UPDATE: If you have issues with MotoBlur widgets after this update you will need to perform a factory data reset. Actually, if you use the Blur features, just plan on performing that reset no matter what.
PICASA WEB ALBUM (higher quality screenshots)

Reserved (10char)

I'm testing this right now. Thanks, it looks awesome. Also, you might wanna make sure that you tell people that they need Adeo 0.1 BEFORE applying this update.
(A Mod might move it though... >.<)

hey man i just tested it. i do have the never software flashed on it (the sbf file frmo teh forums), and it seems to work fine, however i saw a glitch or so to say, namely when i did the webtop over hdmi only, after disconnecting the hdmi, and pressing the off/on button to put the screen to sleep, i tried to get it from sleep again and the screen just stayed black no matter what i did, i had to pull out the battery and now it works again.
so it might be a glitch with the newer version and teh webtop hack.

works well and very pretty but,
my social networking is messed up. my contact widgets are not linked anymore.
it was cool to test out!, how do i uninstall?

Well, there were a lot of people having problems with their MotoBlur after the 0.2 update and I believe this "ROM" is based on that update so maybe a factory reset would have fixed it?

Yes, factory reset will fix it. I had issues with with Adeo .2 and a factory reset got everything working fine.

Yup, had to upload via dog sled to! It does have MotoBlur, no way of completely removing that right now. I just choose to use LauncherPro Plus instead of the stock MotoBlur launcher because I never use any of the Blur crap. If we ever get a custom recovery I will definitely work on a Blur-less ROM!
crnkoj, thanks for the feedback on the webtop mod! I have not even tried it yet but I'll probably play with that later this afternoon. If it continues being a pain I'll remove it from the updater.
songoghon, some people have reported that issue with blur specific widgets after the Adeo v0.2 updated (as mentioned above). The only solution which seems to work universally is a factory reset.

The primary reason for this mod/theme/pseudo-rom is for my own personal use which is why you guys might find glitches I don't see. Everyone uses their phones a little differently so I really appreciate the feedback!
I still have some ideas for the graphics since I really dislike the lock screen sliders and I can see a few small glitches. Updates will be posted as I work on it (and as I have the time).

yep, worked for me

is the link for the download the new one with the custome theme andother packages you listed?

I don't like that the messages app icon and email app icon are really small.. The trans. of the notification bar is slightly to transparent and cant read text very well maybe adding a white boarder to the text or changing trans. to something slightly darker. Really like the rest of it... Great job on this.. Keep up the good work...

+1 on that quoted section above. If those two Icons were normal sized - i would have no complaints period. Love the theme job here. Please keep this going and update it as often as you can. This is very nice looking. I love the Signal bar design
[edit] There are actually a few icons that got shrunk down to very tiny sizes.... Hope this is an easy fix and an easy update to those who have this installed

*bump* I know OP is limited on time available - just wondering if anyone else has found any issues with this mod. Anxiously awaiting next release!

[Q] Front screen task buttons

Ok guys and gals. Had my htc one for a few days now. Unlocked the bootloader today, installed twrp custom recovery so far and running stock.rom at the moment. Now the question i have is:
Like on my HTC Evo 3d you could replace the task buttons on the bottom of the screen up from the soft keys. Im not seeing how to do that now.
Any one have a clue about how to go about this? I removed a few apps and disabled a few for example the stock internet browser. And it took the task icon off the bar but i cant seem to replace it with anything. I am adding a attached screen shot pic for a better idea
I do appoligize if this has already been asked before. I have been the past while trying to make sure it hasnt been

[Q] Is there a mod or way to completely get rid of the shortcuts bar?

I already have no apps linked there, because, well, I don't want to, but is there a way to just get rid of the lock button too? Because no I can swipe from the lock or the time, which is a bit redundant. Is there a mod to do this?

you can always flash ViperOne ROM which has MANY mods and tweaks

Well I've got ViperROM, the one for the sprint version. Can I get those tweaks on my version or only the viperONE version?

I'll check there, thanks! And I don't get to change the entire family's plan, especially when I don't even pay for it directly.
