DCUpdater problem - Hero CDMA General

I've had this problem twice. Once with going from DC 2.06 - 2.07 I had to download and put the zip on my SD card myself, and now same with 2.07 - 2.07.2. Is anyone else having this problem with the DCUpdater?

worked just fine for me, going from 2.06 to 2.07.2.
The only problem I had was that when the update was loading for the first time, it froze on the white HTC screen. A quick battery pull and reboot fixed it.

It all downloads for me, and reboots, but it just reboots into my current ROM.
I just checked my SD card and the zips are in the updates folder.

I too have had this issue... I tried installing the zip files and the installer comes back and says the zip files are bad. I had to wait to return to work to download as I use a sprint aircard at home too... I guess I could have tried using a computer but I was lazy. seems to load just fine at work though!

error 155 during update

after reboot and sending the new rom i got this error, the device restart and the update is not applied
any hint?
error 155 during install update HTC Hero
I got the same message 155 during the ROM update for my HTC Hero. It should be a flash issue. The space for install the Image on the flage should be too low. I don't understand this, because the space on my flash (after a hard reset) is 155Mb. The downloaded file is 103Mb. Enough I think.
I have 489 MB free on the card, if a minimum space is needed htc should write it on the read me...I don't think this is the problem (but I'll try with another card tonight)
from HTC support only say to re download and reinstall, I've done this many time on my pc (XP sp3) and a couple of time at work (on Vista)
I'm happy I'm not the only one with this issue , so keep in touch!
confirmed: with empty 8GB sd card, same results
nobody else with this error?
same problem here... but this this worked for me (got it from another thread):
-------------------------------
Install HTC-sync
Connect the phone with the cable with the pc
Select on the dropdown-screen : sync --- THIS IS THE IMPORTANT STEP
Install the firmware update
---------------------------------
Also, note that I formatted the micro sd card before starting the installation.
After I got a successful installation message on the PC, my phone didn't restart. I got out the battery, reinstalled and everything is fine.... installed with the new version.
still doesn't work for me. But i also noticed i've got a problem the syncing my phone with HTC sync. I use HTC sync 2.0.4 and before i tried to update i,ve never used HTC sync before on my android
I mailed HTC and the told me the would have a look at this problem.
i've solved too, is not a problem of htc update software
the first owner of my hero negate that the phone is rooted, but i've found installed an SPL, so I think this cause the problem
i could restore the orginal one, but meantime i'm playing with the last modaco
hope can help
I know for sure my phone isn't rooted. And i have the same problem. I even called the htc helpdesk and the also could not help me. Htc offert me to colect the phone and install the update themselve

how did you restore the hero to the original one? I've been trying to do that for months and I'm getting frustated, would you please help me...
i've never did it (modaco custom rom worked fine form me), I think you can try restoring the original recovery:
download from here and put it in the tools folder of sdk
then launch:
Code:
fastboot boot cm-hero-recovery.img
hope this solve the problem, good luck

jumping to kernel

have a tmo us hd2
had a past version of android with sense it worked fine. tried a different and got the pause at jumping to kernel so tried a clean version, it worked. ive booted it plenty of times, then tonight it stopped working
so im trying froyostone with sense and now it wont boot either
im on omega v7 newest and radio 2.1.5.28_2
I was on the same problem, i think you have the android files directly on your SD Card? So that is the problem, put them in a new folder android.
That helps me, the first boot was by me also possible, but after that all reboots end in "jumping to kernel"
nope. theyre in the android folder.
and i just tried switching to the 2.12 radio
the strangest part is that is was working the past few days and earlier today...
id understand a certain build not working but why would it randomly stop working.
Have you made, since this problem more reboots. I have on my HD2 sometimes that i must boot 2-3 times to come up
yup, tried multiple reboots and both radios
have you solved a problem? I've similar problem. Each time I turn on the phone - I'm getting this error. Sometimes it helps to remove "cache' folder and some others and restart twice or may be 3 times. But no working 100% solution.
My Results
ppp vr.
Market ok
WIFI ok
BT ok
whitout freezes
little bit more sensitive touch screen
Very good job, DEV team you are masters
When I'm getting stuck at jump to kernel, I normally remove and reinsert the sd card when I booted into WM and most of the time that fixes it.
I (and other members) have found that "Jumping to kernel..." freeze occurs when one is using Windows for a period of time. The solution is usually to re-boot and once Windows loads *immediately* boot into Android. This has not failed me yet! Before I was like you, wondering why sometimes I get the freeze and other times I don't...but a fresh boot into Android solved my issue.
Hope this helps.
have you changed the kernal lately or switched any file , or renamed anything
have you tried changing the startup.txt file? look around for that solution..it has been posted here many times.
I would give you a link but I am posting from my cell so it would be a little difficult.

TMOUS HD2 Freezing on New Flash and Without Micro SD Card Why?

I recently have been experiencing problems with my HD2 freezing and lagging.
I decided to get rid of the stock ROM that came with my phone. I installed the HSPL 3 on my phone and it is now at 2.08 instead of the 2.10 it came with. I installed the Energy ROM build from Aug. Cant remember which one. For about a month the ROM gave me no issues at all. Then suddenly i started getting freezes as I once did on the stock ROM. I flashed the ROM again and still freezing. I backed up my data on the micro sd card and re-formatted it but the HD2 freezes without the sd card installed. also many times I have had to pull my sim card out to get the phone to respond to my finger. also when i recieved a text message the phone froze.
When i boot into android the phone is fine. no freezes. some lag but no freezing at first. now i get random freezes as well. I just installed the latest Froyostone build from Sept 29 V 3.1 on my micro sd card and it as well has been freezing. Before I installed this new version I was running a clean froyostone version and that too was freezing.
im beginning to think my phone is bad! My sim card is old. Ive had it possibly 4-5 years now since i first signed up with tmobile. ive tried just about every tip available to fix the freezing issue and nothing works. the phone freezes at bootup with a new flashed ROM. freezes on the stock ROM too. Tried the task 29 flashed with radio file.
currently on my HD2 I have the following
SPL 2.08
Radio: 2.07.50.27_2
ROM: Energy Aug 28 2010 WWE
for Android
FroyoStone Sense - Version 3.1 (29-September-2010)
I flashed from the 2.10.50.26 to 2.07.50.27_2 using the task29
I have tried many radios. the stock, the 2.07.50.27_2, 2.08.50.05 and the latest 2.14.50 radio. ALL freeze on my phone. I read on some threads that radios cause the phone to freeze but all of them are freezing. 2.08.50.05 i got my best performance. 3G was very strong indoors and download speeds were through the roof but when i ran android i got the robotic voice so i changed the radio back to stock.
Sorry for all the mixed up info but just wanted to say what I have gone through. The phone will work fine for awhile and then it just freezes. Also another weird thing is that when the phone freezes and i do a battery pull it boots back up right back where it left off. like it did a system resume. it wont say HTC Loading HTC Sense it just goes right to the lockscreen and freezes. WTF!!!
so please anyone have any info for me? because no matter what ROM and/or radio combination i use the phone freezes and even without the micro sd card installed. yes my card is a class 2 and i heard on th htc forum that they are replacing the class 2 cards for class 4 cards but that doesnt seem to be the issue here because the phone freezes without the card.
when i flash the ROM or radio i do not have the sim or sd card installed. I also tried the elegancia rom and i loved it but same thing. freezing. I dont have any apps installed on the phone except for GRemotePro which is installed on the storage card and the phone was freezing before i ever installed that app.
So if anyone reading this has solutions or links to other threads on here please help me by leaving them! I have done a very extensive search through this site for solutions and done many of them with no luck. I hate to call tmobile and go through the hassle of getting another phone especially because i paid 300 bucks for a NEW phone and I dont want to send this one back and get a refurbished unit. I want a NEW working unit in which i originally paid for to begin with!!!!
HELP my fellow HD2 users! I love this phone!
i hink you should download nrg's newset rom but flash the radio he recomends
I'm also having the same issue, and looking for a fix. as what i observed, its a hardware related issue, not software issue.
Did you get any solution after that? I like this phone but it failed me...

Suddenly experiencing the weirdest problem.

Hi guys
I'm a NRG rom user, com5 build and suddenly I'm experiencing the wierdest problem, which I can't solve by myself. Let me explain what happened.
I flashed the latest rom but also went back a couple of versions. I always flash with the flash util which has the task29 feature build in. What happens is that when I flash a rom, all goes well, the complete process including the XDA_UC auto install process. After that everything is okay and everything works. But when I restart the phone all processes are starting to fail loading. Strange thing is that when I remove the storage card and reboot the phone everything is back to normal again. But as soon as I boot the phone with the storage card in everythings fails. I even had white screens of death when booting with a storage card mounted. I also tried dutty's latest rom and mirri's latest, all have the same problem. This problem appeared all of a sudden, all the cabs etc worked like a charm before, so the problem doesn't lie in the cabs or the files autoinstalled during the xda_uc.
A weird solution to this problem is to flash the latest dutch official stock 1.66 rom which is available for the hd2. With that one everything works, also after a reboot. So I can't use a custom rom anymore. Could this be due to a hardware problem? And if so, how can I explain this to HTC if I want to try to send it to them for repair?
Ow and of course I tried it with several other microsd card, all having the same error, so it's not a sd card issue.
I would relock and the re-unlock your hspl and see what happens. That is indeed a weird problem (that you can't send your phone in for).
Good luck

sounds like a defective phone!!!!
Yeah, that was my idea too. I tried relocking and reunlocking it with HSPL, but that doesn't matter.
But the problem is, how do I explain this to HTC if I want to send the phone to them for repair? I can't tell them that the problem only occurs when I install a custom made rom.
Pfff okay, I found the solution. It wasn't a hardwareproblem after all. I went through a terribly long trial and error procedure but finally pinned the problem down to only one cabfile, named HD2MemTweak found in the registry tips and tricks section of the general forum of the HD2.
I'd installed the lastest official 3.14 rom and installed all the cabs I was used to. But noticed, after several reinstalls, that when I installed that specific cab and rebooted the phone, everything went wrong. So I installed it without that cabfile and allw as working fine again. Then reinstalled HSPLv3 and installed the latest NRG Cookie Classic rom, which works fine again.
So that was the problem indeed. But one thing is strange of course, is that the mentioned cabfile used to work and suddenly stopped working. Could this maybe have something to do with the fact that the latest roms were build on the new 3.14 official rom? Who knows.....

[Q] darky 10.2 boot problem

Yesterday I needed to take a picture and used my Galaxy S. for it. After that I connected my phone to my laptop USB port and got an unknown device error. Assuming it was a driver problem I re-installed them keeping the same error.
I also got telephony problems before, after some minutes calling the other side couldn't hear me anymore and I needed to put the call on wait and back to continue the call.
Both problems together made me decide to update my Darky 10.1 Extreme edition to the latest 10.2 Extreme edition. I took my sd card out and copied the darky 10.2 zip to it using my laptop. Put it back in and used Astro filemanager to copy it to the internal sd. Because I can't use the usb port this was the only way.
Rebooted to recovery and flashed 10.2. After reboot the screen stayed at the boot screen with green Darky text for half an hour without doing anything. No vibrate or anything. I did read some info about 10.2 before i downloaded it but missed the lagfix point. Tried to get into recovery and luckily that worked. Turned on the lagfix, did hear the computer voice 2 or 3 times and last time it said lagfix was enabled. Rebooted to recovery again, checked lagfix was on, also for next boot, and flashed 10.2 again. Same problem, hangs at bootscreen.
Turned lagfix off again and flashed the old 10.1 again. Same problem again, this time only bootscreen with white SG text and both button lights on. Nothing for the rest. Flashed back, after lagfix enabled, to 10.2 again without luck. Again bootscreen only.
Someone knows how to fix this? Because of the usb problem I can't use Odin. I did read somewhere now there might be a cable problem or a dirty usb connector on the phone. Checked the connector visually and can't see any dirt, I also keep it closed when not using it.It does load the battery also when connected to my laptop. At least it did when I first got the unknown device error.
1) USB Error
I am not sure you have Only installed the USB driver alone or Kies it self. Anyway, try this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315265. Scandisk with delete currupted file on your disk drive and replace with default window file. You can reinstall your driver/Kies on your laptop after scandisk complete.
2) First, you must come from JVP or JVQ base rom. JVO and older rom have older bootloader. What you need to do is to flash JVP or JVQ stock rom with bootloader into your phone. Then, flash over Darky 10.2 over the phone. Take note that Darky still have many problem and it is not that stable yet. I've run it over a week and decided to dump it. The rom is too big at 215MB where else others rom only 195MB. The startup is too slow, take 5-10min after reboot the phone. The initial start up takes nearly 15min after flash.

If your boot takes so long, you doing something wrong
First boot, yes... it takes some time. But then, the animation isn't finished yet and I'm already good to go (after media bla bla bla)
@OoZic
For darkys rom... i had the same problem.
First flash Ficetos resurection 10.2, then make shure lagfix is ON (full lagfix - check in voodoo control app) and then flash 10.2 extreme edition
For details go to
http://www.darkyrom.com/community/index.php?threads/v10-2-final-what-are-you-waiting-for.4253/
I had the problem too
Thank you for your reply from.insider
Problem is the phone can only do bootscreen and recovery. The device isn't recognized in any way. Tried it on 2 computers (laptop/PC) with different multiboots (Win7 X64 and Vista X86 on both). Maybe that is because the OS isn't loaded and can't go to MTP?
Is there a way to copy something from external SD to internal SD within recovery menu? Because that way I can copy a JVP or JVQ image to internal. Now there are only the 10.1 and 10.2 zips from Darky.
FSCK didn't find any problems btw.
Thanks again.
Problem solved, my Galaxy is unbricked and working again. Very happy now
Can't post a link because of low post count but the answer is on post-87372 on Darky.com.
The USB problem also went away, but after using Titanium to put my backup back the problem was here again. something in my settings or a service is screwing something up with the mtp I think. Used Android Booster to kill some things and it works again. As soon as I know what exactly is screwing up my mtp I will let you all know.
