I was wondering if anyone has been able to get it working on a GSM Hero? I have a telus hero and was wondering if anyone has gotten it to work, and what steps you did.
I would imagine the people who have it running on the G1 are on Android 1.6 whilst we are currently stuck with 1.5. Just a guess though.
Now here, but from v. 1.6. .... http://googlemobile.blogspot.com/2009/11/happy-thanksgiving-travels-google-maps.html
meh.
I guess we'll have to wait till HTC releases an update 2.0 rom, someone gets this working on a 1.5 rom, or someone creates a new custom 1.6 rom.
I'm guessing that we'll have to wait till 2.0.
Alright, so I updated my phone with the official 2.1 android update from sprint, then rooted it. I hate 2.1 and my phone runs like complete crap. I even tried to re-flash it after doing a hard reset, that didn't help. I am very new to android phones, but learn fast. I downloaded the initial release ruu from sprint which has android 1.5 but can't simply run that to flash back to a 1.5 rom because it gives some type of error about not being able to update the boot loader or something. I gather that I need to get the original 1.5 rom in .zip form somewhere and then flash that rom using the menu at the phones boot up to get back to a 1.5 rom. Can someone tell me what I need to download, and the steps to do so? Also is there any 1.5 roms that are nearly identical to sprints stock rom but that have tethering enabled? Thanks guys!!

I would like to know this also as 2.1 runs like garbage I think and 1.5 at least worked for me and wasnt so buggy. I am not happy wih 2.1 at all. Also I really want my tethering back.
Pick a 1.5 ROM like Pancake or Gumbo and install it. The list of 1.5 ROMS can be found in the XDA Hero CDMA Wiki
Which Rom is closest to stock? Know where I could find stock 1.5?
Im going to say Gumbo ROM 1.5c FULL but I could be wrong. I am going to wait and see what some more experienced member/s have to say. For now I deal with this rooted 2.1.
You can not go back to 1.5 after running the 2.1 RUU. The hboot in 2.1 has a higher version and you can not downgrade below the version currently on your phone. The only thing to do is install a 1.5 ROM..
Just look in the Wiki, there are several 1.5 ROMs.
Before I went to 2.1 ROM's I used Gumbo 1.5c Bare. FAST as the wind...but there is the FULL version also, that has all the sprint apps.
Both here.....Flash them and see which you like better.

Hello,
I just rooted my htc magic to mod 5.0.7. eclair.
Now i have a desire using the same firmare but it's looking completle different.
am i missing someting or is this normal.
i would like to have the same clock/weather, calender, email widget as the desire.
is this even possible?
after searching i now know i'm missing sense.
So the next question. Can please someone tell me what firmware i should take? I would like to have sense working on a 32b magic.
Ther are a lot off firmwares but all are missing some parts. Is there a firmware that is just stable?
You need to root it and install a Sense ROM, which you will find in the G1 development section. However the ROMs aren't really fast enough for it to be worth it
The most stable sense ROM is cursordroid running on 1.5. If you want a 2.1 sense, I am not sure what I can offer you. As to why CM Rom is different from the Rom of HTC, CM is AOSP aka Open-Sourced and HTC Sense is Closed Sourced. So technically you can't load closed sourced progs into open-sourced.
Hi there,
I just rooted my 2.1 Eclair phone to Froyo's 2.2.1. Although I love how its made my phone faster its missing some basic features like the camera not working, (which is useless to me because i am always takin pics on my phone) and not having the ability to import contacts from SIM. Am guessing theres other things that make this Rom uncomplete compaired to the official release. Anyways am not here to complain. My question is, Is there a Eclair 2.1 rom that is customizable just like any other custom Rom out there ? I want the rom to be the same as the official release but just with the ability to download custom software basically...or if anyone can suggest a rom that retains all features like camera and import to sim....
sorry for the long request but once I know then I guess I know what choices I have.....thanks !
All Froyo builds, or most of them that i know of, have a camera working, don't know what is wrong with yours =/
Try Floyo or VillainRom, they surely have camera working.
Now if you want to go back to sense, there's a 2.2 Sense version flying around here (sorry don't know the name), and we even have 2.1's still about. There aren't that many Roms around anymore, so you can easily help yourself around. Just look in this section, and the thread titles should be fairly descriptive, along with the first post in each rom's thread.
Well I did try the latest Froyo, it was the special edition version and the camera didn't work. I then tried the stock version and the camera worked but I still had import to sim problems. There are a lot of Sense and non Sense roms out there, someone made a list and i've had a look at it so will try one of them. Thanks for the reply !
P.S. What in your opinion is the most stable rom out there for 2.1 ?
Floyo, FroydVillain, and elelinux's ROMs all have reputations for being quite stable. There may be others. I'm running Floyo and it's been totally solid and speedy, with rocking battery life. And everything works.
EDIT: Oops, sorry you asked for 2.1. The above ROMs that I listed are all 2.2.1. I've no idea about 2.1, sorry!
VanillaEclair has everything working, search for it on the board..
So maybe you guys can help me out. New to the SF, not new to flashing/rooting/etc...
I am simply looking for a rom (other than Powerwashed) that works with Cricket with no other BS required. Just flash and reboot.
I have no idea why this forum is so much more convoluted than the Eris forums, but it's hard to find things here.
im just trying to find out if i put a custom rom on my fascinate will it remove my flash.
im running 2.1 O.F and lots of apps tell me to update to 2.2
