rooting sprints htc hero and loading 2,1 - Hero CDMA General

Yes I was wondering if someone could give me the steps to rooting the these HTC hero from Sprint I did install the maintenance update. Also how to install
2.1

There's a good step by step guide. It's the sticky at the top of this forum.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=CDMA HERO CURRENT GUIDES PAGE

download flipz kitchen, run the auto root option. mount your sd card, move the 2.1 zip onto your sd card, flash said zip from the recovery screen. pretty fool proof

this is gonne become a problem, this is like the 3rd thread thats related to something in the Guides and ROMs stickies

You don't actually expect people to *read*, do you? This is why there continue to be issues with people doing stupid things like flashing GSM updates onto CDMA Heros, just because the version number is higher.

Flash Player 10.1 for Android 2.2, can it be extracted?

Would it be possible to extract Flash Player 10.1 from Froyo? It doesn't show on Market for lower versions
I'd appreciate it
That's because it won't run on lower versions.
Ever think they do these things for a reason? (Resitrict OS version for certain apps)

Flash player 10.1 doesnt work without andorid 2.2 and hes speed.
Flash is using some new libraries from froyo, if you are on 2.2 then just get the beta from adobe.com, until it comes to RTM.
as the other 2 said, it doesn't show because it wouldn't work. Plus why would you need to extract it when the apk is a download?
It also kind of sucks.

You can't say that. Neither FroYo nor Flash 10.1 has been released yet to the general public.
Ok then what sort of flash player/plug-in inbuilt in the Desire's original Browser since it plays flash media!?
Flash Lite.

The few minutes I had with FroYo on my Desire were brilliant on Flash websites. No slowdown whatsoever.

Why am I running Flash 10.1 on my Froyo Nexus One then? Granted it's pre-release, but it's still Flash at its heart, and it's not intended for small screens.

You're running it because someone managed to extract the link out of an OTA update destined for journalists. That's hardly what could be called a general release.

Thanx mate
it wont work on android 2.1 so no point even downloading that apk.
if your on 2.2 then u can just visit the adobe site and download the beta.
Is the hardware accelerated flash app in 2.2 intregrated into the whole system or just in the Stock-browser and the Youtube app ?
i have backed up the flash 10.1 it is not apk file it is a .bin
you cant install it to nexus one 2.1
It's already been said all over the net and by the creators that it will not work below 2.2. I admire your determination in trying but anything below 2.2 simply doesn't have the performance to do it.

It has the Google search app and the updated Voice Search.

No, do NOT run that 1.66 stock ROM on a T-mobile US HD2, it will brick your phone.
and HellocK, you need to be looking through the proper ROM sections for the T-mobile US HD2...this is the area for the european version (Leo).
One of the local section mods will be by shortly to move this thread to its proper location.

sorry guys did not mean any harm,only was trying to help,did not realize you was using usa rom.i am sure if you can find something compatiple like the european rom and have 2.15.50 radio update it will work flawlessly.i can recommend also mdj revolution hd with hastarins 8.5.3 that i,m using at the moment its fast and battery life is excellent.
I had that problem a lot when I first started using Android on my HD2, what I do now is every noew ROM I put on first thing I do is go into settings, display, uncheck auto rotate, and turn off auto brightness and set it pretty high, never had that problem again. Give it a shot, maybe it will work.

Change the radio. I had that same problem with the 2.11.50.26 before. I am using 2.14.50 and it work fine. Winmo Rom in VBN 3.14 . And do you have the original card? If you have a crappy sd card won't help the matter.

I wrote the phone prioritizer app.
It started off being called phone renicer then script scheduler. It actually installs as phone prioritizer in the app drawer for all versions.
Older versions are here when it was called phone renicer:

Newer versions are here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=558822
The older versions were simpler to use.
The newer version allowed you to schedule any scripts you want by placing them in a specific folder on the sdcard. Sample scripts are in the zip file including the phone prioritizing scripts.

A few questions about Custom rom's.

I know this is the wrong section but I got some kind of feeling that there are more people looking in this section.
I have read some guides in the Development section (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857537'
But I got some questions about rooting/S-off.
Why is rooting/S-off necessarily, why can't I just put the rom on my SD and go right into recovery mode and boot it up from there?
Also the program visionary plus, I hate that thing so much.... At this step:
Open Visionary and tap temproot, then attempt permroot now. Your device will reboot.
How the hell do I open it? I use Astro File manager or something to go to the file but I can't install the program on my mobile/SD card >.<
Also what do I need to do more besides Wiping my phone? In this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11557769
It says to flash a Radio is this a must? Or is the S-off/Root enough.
Thanks already

No, the DHD has a protected system which precludes overwriting the system partition so without S-OFF you can not make any permanent changes.

Actually all of the roms now are running Gingerbread, and sense roms are on sense2.1 (With some sense3.0 elements).

+1 for this. definitely give LeeDroid a go if you can. admittedly, it's the only custom one i've used to date (and for less than 24 hours at that), but i can't rate it high enough compared to the branded rom i got in the first place. amazing!

sorry to hear that. it's news to me, though. i downloaded it (CWM), and used it last night in the process of flashing the rom, no issues. but i understand the whole 'there may be issues, so i think i'll wait - don't want to brick my phone' line of thought. good luck when you get there. i'm sure you'll be fine if you follow the various guides posted on here. they worked an absolute treat for me (and i'm the definition of n00b).

So basically I'm screwed? Since I need to downgrade to root, and to backup you need to have root >.< but when you downgrade you lose everything xD
I will try it tonight ._.
If you want to back up the new GB OTA ROM then yes but if you just want to back up your apps then No, you don't need root.
Titanium works with root but doesn't need it. Also, if you ticked to let Google keep a backup then your apps will be re-downloaded when you next perform a wipe.

Using Windoze is great....
One word for you: Linux.
At the risk of high jacking this thread, have you installed HTC Sync? Can you connect to HTC Sync? If not, try another USB port (if using front port use back ports or vice-versa). If none work uninstall HTC Sync and reinstall it after rebooting PC.
If that works when you are in adb (making sure USB Debugging is on) try
Code:
adb devices
Do you get a result?
