Fresh rom with optimization text problem - Hero CDMA General

i dont know what is up, but i love this rom. only issue so far that i am having is that when i go to message settings it force closes everytime. i was trying to set my notification tone. it plays the one i have in setting in the phone and the text message one. sound funny.

There may be a more elegant fix BUT if you just want it to start working why don't you do a Nandroid restore to your last working setup and then reflash .6? i only offer this advise because nobody else seems to be having any issues with text on .6 including me.

I'm not sure what you mean by "with optimization". But I can't duplicate your issue.

its the zip on i think the first page that optimizes apps. it really inproves the speed. dont know if it did it before.. may do a restore just dont want to have to set my stuff up agian. lol

ok it wasnt doing it after a fresh install so and then all of a sudden it did. im going to try the newer version of the optimization.. really confused now. its either that or the green theme im using.

The optimizations do not effect the text messages, in fact, they do not effect anything, all there is to them is optimized images and zip alignment for faster file access. I am running Fresh 0.6 with my optimizations and experiencing none of those issues

I have the same setup (Fresh Rom w/ Optimzation).
My text problem is a little different though.
I use handcent SMS, and I received a text message today that previewed in the quick reply box, which I closed. Then, when I went to the handcent application, that text message is missing.
Is anyone else experiencing missing incoming text messages w/ Handcent?

ok well im having a issue with phone not vibrating as well and went back to stock so i will have to see. it may be a app i have added, but i have like a 100 so i dont know which one yet.

i'm running Fresh 0.6 and the optimizations from 11/24 and i'm sorry to say gents that I'm not having either of those problems.
everything is running smooth on my end (went from MoDaCo to Fresh 0.2 to Fresh 0.4 and now Fresh 0.6)... only problem I ever had was the wifitether stopped working on 0.2, but has since been fixed.
might be worth reflashing fresh..

Evil Eris 2.0.1 Messaging Bugs

Hi, I've been searching high and low for others with this problem but here I am starting a thread...
First let me just thank all the devs who worked on this ROM. Your work is very much appreciated.
Is anyone having issues with SMS after flashing EE 2.0.1? I went straight to 2.0.1 no 2.0 first. Seems to be OK except somewhat buggy. Maybe this is why?
Here's the central issue for me so far:
When typing in an SMS text input box with Handcent, screen would go blank/black and just stay like that with no recovery. Could eventually get back to home but message input would be lost . It got so bad I uninstalled Handcent (crying shame, i loved it) and went back to stock SMS (hate it, booo!). Even with that I still have issues though not as frequent. While typing in text box, text box will disappear and I am left looking at the general text thread, but at least when I pull the box back up my message is still there and I can keep going. Happens CONSTANTLY. I am an avid texter and will have to try other ROMS to fix if I cannot resolve. I'm lazy and don't want to do that .
Should I wipe and flash 2.0, then 2.0.1? OR I guess if I'm going to do all that I might as well flash 3.0? Any more conservative suggestions ?
Thanks in advance !!!!!!!!!!!

i'd suggest going to 3.0, never used it tho. do a nand back up first, and if you don't like it you could always restore back. the update of the rom might fix what ever is causing your issues. i read most of the EE thread, and don't ever recall anything like what you describe. maybe .... you could try uninstall handcent, then reinstall see if it helps any. just might be worth a try.
also you prolly should of posted this in the EE thread. some people around here get pissy when new threads are started.
Evil Eris 2.0.1 is only a flash update to 2.0 - you must have EE2.0 installed first. It also sounds like you didn't do a data wipe before flashing EE either. Personally, I would move to EE3.0 anyways. Framework is working on an update to 3.0 now that will finish the incomplete theme as well.
What g00gl3 said. Do a data wipe (backup first) and flash 3.0 anyways. There'll be a new version of 3.0 out very soon.
I did do a wipe... I'll try 3.0 and see what happens. That's a project for the weekend. BTW, I cannot find the EE thread. Can someone post a link to that? Search is limited in this forum (and I'm new here so maybe it's right in front of me). Thanks for the advice!
It's in the front now, I had a few FC's at first when I flashed it, but after a couple of days it was smooth sailing.
EE Link is in my sig.

Me too, lolz...
Thanks kindly everyone! Apologies to Mods for the new thread.
Flashed 3.0 yesterday and issue has been resolved, as it mostl likely would had i gone back and instead flashed 2.0 THEN 2.0.1. Anyhoo, LOVE 3,0!!! I especially dig the subtle blue theme (blue battery display, icon backgrounds turn blue when touched, etc). SWEET. Soft key backlights work, runs super smooth. Very nice!

[Q] Flashed Froyo on MT3G 1.2; a couple of concerns

I finally took the plunge and rooted/loaded a new ROM on my wife's phone. Everything went smoothly and I figured that the best/easiest choice for a new ROM would be the CyanogenMod ROM 6.0 that just came out.
Since I loaded the new ROM, I've noticed a few things that I hope someone can help me fix.
First, one of the main reasons that I wanted to load the ROM is so I could get rid of that Amazon Mp3 app. The Froyo ROM I installed still had it
Also, I've noticed that when I try and rotate the screen, it takes several seconds (some times close to a minute) to actually rotate. This mainly happens right when I unlock the phone.
My wife says that the option to have separate tones play when an e-mail comes in vs an SMS has gone away. I haven't played with it, so IDK about this. She just wants to know if the message received was an email or a text.
There were some other things, but I don't remember what they were, so if I remember I'll post. But those are the big ones. If there is anything I can do to fix them, let me know please! Also, if there is a better, smoother, faster ROM for MT3G 1.2 than the CYGN 6.0, I wouldn't be opposed to reflashing.
Thank you for any help!

Let's start off by moving this to General.
The best way to remove a system app (Yes, Amazon MP3 is considered a system app) is by installing Titanium Backup and using that app to remove any system app that you don't want installed. I used it recently to remove Street View (Street.apk) and I was able to install the newest version from Market after a reboot.
There should be no reason why it would take any more than a couple of seconds to rotate your home screen. How many widgets and shortcuts do you have? Try locking the Launcher app to memory. That may help.
SMS notification:
SMS app, Settings, check Notifications, Notification Settings, Select Ringtone
Gmail notification:
Gmail, Settings, check Email notifications, Select ringtone
Email notification:
Email, Settings, check Email notifications, Select ringtone
Thank you! Sorry for posting in wrong forum. I debated General and Android... should have gone General!
As per the homescreen, I believe she only has 2 widgets: Analog Clock and some task killer widget. IDK if the task killer widget is the root of the problem, but I will have her remove it and see if that fixes it. I also don't know how to check if it is using a lot of system resources. Is there some kind of Taskmgr app that will tell me if that app is a resource hog?
Thank you for your response!
That Task Killer Widget. Oh My, that is one resource hogger. I tried it on my Tilt with Froyo ... it hogged up badly . I gave up, and got me a new myTouch 3G 1.2 off ebay.
Ok, I got the sound thing all working (really easy. Should have looked b4 I asked) But the rotation is still really slow
I was given a Droid to help develop a mobile application recently, and even though it has similar specs to the MT3G, and the same OS version, there is not lag in the screen rotation. I've installed most of the same apps on the Droid and still there is no lag.
Is there something else that could be causing the lag? Any thoughts?
Thanks
Have you uninstalled task killer yet? they actually do way more harm than good.
Froyo on Mt3g 1.2?
Correct me if I'm wrong, please, but I thought the only Froyo images for MT3g 1.2 were buggy at best and didn't support wifi or camera, among other things.
A guy I work with just put Froyo on his G1 and says it works faster than Eclair. I want in on that action!
As a MT3G user, I've found that the 6.0 Rom from CY is horrible with a Mytouch sadly. It's the rom not agree'ing with the Mytouch that is the problem, not the phone.
I'd suggest the 6.1 RC1 Mod from Cy, or this linked Rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=814142
I've had no problem with the linked rom working for me. I had some minor issues with the RC1 not recieving all my texts, though honestly I upgraded my radio at the same time as changing over to the new Rom, so I'm not sure if it was the ROM or the Radio.

Messaging App issues.

Okay, well I have a notifier for my phone that sends notifications to my computer whenever I get a text. I recieved a text today and it showed on the notifier on my computer, however, it never showed up on my phone itself, it was like I never received the text in the messaging app itself. This has happened many times before today.
Any ideas as to why?
You will need to post more information about rom, theme, system apps etc., before anyone can help you.
I bet it is either to do with mismatched kernel or more likely custom dns servers. But then, I avoid mms at all costs, so I wouldn't know.
+1 for google voice.
PS. Maybe you wanted a better answer. Best I can do; I just make a conscious effort to avoid letting any polite post sit too long at 0 if I see it, because I know that sucks.
Swyped w/ XDA App. When in doubt, mumble.
Mine was doing the same thing the other day after putting the original dj05 leak on. It wouldn't show up a notification until I opened up my messages app. I believe it has something to do with the kernel. I tried to flash another kernel and it wouldn't allow me to through cwm. So i just wiped everything and put a new rom with a new kernel built and everything works fine now. I did all of this through rom manager and cwm. Hope this helps.
I'm running the D02 Voodoo Kernel but other than that everything is stock, this was happening even before I started using this kernel, I can't go to DJ05 cuz I own a Mac, but i don't know what's wrong.
I hear the notification sound but no message ever goes into my inbox or shows in the notification bar.
Anyone know what's wrong?
Oh and it doesn't happen every time, just once in a while.

Problems I've had with DJ05

Kind of a pointless post but if anyones interested heres my observations thus far from flashing the three things i listed below. I'm really enjoying it overall. So I dont know which has the problems.. I have DJ05 modem, Stock DJ05 rom unrooted, and geeknik superfast (always current) test release kernal.
Tetris is broken no matter what I do... (I paid for it :'c ) tried restoring it with titanium... installing with the apk from my friends phone / putting the apk in the apps folder... and even downloading the similar one from the apps market. No go they either dont show up or freeze on boot up. i loved that version of tetris! QQ
V. Visual voicemail, for some reason when my face gets close to the sensor it turns off my visual voicemail. so ?I can only use it with speakerphone and face up. I know google voice does the same thing, I like VVM.
Swype... when I correct a word it will one in five times put the corrected word at the end of the paragraph instead of replacing the highlighted word. cant figure out why
as for the good. reception seems more reliable... 3g seems more reliable... phone feels faster... battery lasts longer... gps works properly... life is good
one day when we get proper flash, i will be truly happy!
Very odd regarding swype, mine worked perfectly after DJ05 update. JT's new clean DJ05 has the updated swype, you should install that and see if it fixes your problem. Good luck
Can someone check a possible bug for me, go to either email\gmail click on settings and then click on select ringtone, do you get a FC?
Tetris plays fine for me.

everything works great for me ...when I installed dj05 modem then got to the clockwork menur when to the partion menu before flashing & I mounted the system data then the flashed super clean v.9 rom with stupid fast oc kernel evything works fine dont know about VVW cant stand it bloat ware swyp A ok
"It works fine for me as long as I have previously enabled the Email notifications check box."
I second that.
Dj05 actually solved some really weird shutdown/startup behavior I had.
A lot of times I'd power down my phone and it would start right back up again... sometimes it would take a really long time or just freeze powering down. Weird stuff like that........ all fixed
I think geekniks has the updated swype as well because its different... there seems to be more spacing between the letters. swype in general is being really weird. I might try JT's...... I think geekniks is built off JTs though
not sure.
Overall, I'm loving DJ05. I have 2 problems so far, both minor.
Video player and My Uploads FC on boot up (solved this by deleting both, lol)

[Q] Picture Mail

I have a problem. Whenever someone sends me a picture mail i receive the message but the picture does not come up. the only thing there is a button that says download and you click on it and it says downloading but nothing happens. Any thoughts on what i should do?
So I'm guessin your running one of the Cyanogen or AOSP roms. I've found these just don't do picturemail all that well. I can get static pics but no animated gifs on these roms. I've never had a problem on any of the Sense roms (Not sure about Sense hd).
If your having issues on a stock Sense build, this may be a phone problem.
yeah its cyanogen. i dont even see the static picture. do u know a good sense rom to get? i would love to try one that is good.
Thanks,
fresh evo 3.5 is pretty good. i just switched from that to cm because i want to used a bt keyboard and wii remote on my phone.
fresh is pretty quick.
i think you will like it

I get the same problem with Myn's Warm. I think it may be a phone issue.
I have the same problem and made a thread if you want to check it out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=10197958
basically the only fix i have found for now is when you get the download button, open a task killer and kill the "messages" and "message uploader" processes then go back into the message and hit download and it will come up. From what I can tell it is for sure a sprint issue. I have had the problem before i even rooted and its continued no matter which rom i use or which wimax/radios either.
OP, are you running handcent? i have the same "problem" but i thought it was just a setting in handcent.
I have the same issue, of course my cell phone provider told me to do a hard reset, I can send picture messages, but can't recieve them.
I get this sometimes too. Usually dropping to 3g will fix it. If that doesn't work, a reboot will do. It tends to happen when I've gone a long time without rebooting.
I"ve had the problem on different phonies, different ROMS, different MODS> Sprint says there's a ticket out the MMS problem.... for what it's worth
