Don't know if this is the fabled 2.1 ROM or not
Put in my serial number and it says its not suitable for my device
http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=840&news_id=461
Anyone know what it is??
The ROM version is 2.73.771.73, so it is just a carrier version (Three) of the 2.73.xxx builds we already have.

Dave

correct me if i am wrong, but the newest version so far was 2.73.xxx.66, so this 2.73.xxx.73 should be newer? afaik the xxx part is the carrier, while the two last digits are the rom "revision"...

It may well be slightly newer, but the point is that it is still just another Cupcake ROM and as such, not really anything to get too excited about!

i sort of agree with you on this, nevertheless if you keep on mind the performance boost from .61 to .66release it is at least worth a look... maybe someone can upload it somewhere so we can have a look?
It's been asked for too on this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=614053&page=2
As of yet, nothing, but if anyone feels like PM-ing their device number (or telling me how to modify mine to get access to it, as in the good old 'swap the last two digits to get access to stock RUUs), I'd be happy to upload it (I'm on cable so should get a decent upload speed to mediafire).
I only see Flipz releasing new Radios. Does anyone else release them? What all do you use and think you get the best single? Does anyone use the stock one?

I'm no expert, but in all honesty, I've used pretty much all of the radios offered and can't really tell a difference. Once again, I'm not an expert at this, just telling you my experiences with them.
radios are a thing of there own. one may work better than the other for different people in different locations. you just gotta try them for yourself

I agree, i feel like the one im using now is great, but if i loose signal, i always think maybe another would be good.

I have tried stock, the 2.42 latest, and now the 2.32 Verizon radio. I spend most weekends in a Verizon area roaming, and found the Verizon radio gave me more reliable 3G connectivity. The 2.42 radio while roaming on Verizon dropped out every now and then. When I am back on Sprint, the 2.32 Verizon radio works fine and I don't really notice any difference.
(btw I am hoping I got the versions correct!)
I am getting worse signal and speed after I flash Flipz newest Radio. Is there anyway I can go back to the stock one I had?

Flipz's website. Search, et cetera.
I flashed a new radio and I noticed a big connection increase. Then a newer one came out so i flashed it and it sucked. Then flips released a even newer one, but it was an older version radio and Its been the best radio iv had, huge increase. Me personally just south of dallas can tell a big difference between some of the radios.

You always seem to know a lot of info, do you know what the move dalv to SD in the recovery does? Ive been searching and can't figure it out.
Can anybody offer me a ROM that runs steady and has Google Maps and Navigation built into it, in other words the google maps Beta proggie that is currently running.
Also does anyone know if BBC Iplayer will run on the G2 as oppose to beebplayer which will not play 'Live' TV on my Hero?
And also if possible something wth Exchange Mail added or Touchdown?

You have the SPRINT American Hero, right?
google maps is ok but i much prefer the I-GO navigation app, it's not free unless you search for it.
HeroMeng Thanks no its not the Sprint American Hero, I dont think, its the UK version 3 mobile. If this is the wrong info please let me know as I'm a nube !!
Fixxxer2008, where do I get your roms from? Do you have a link?

Wrong thread...you want the Hero G2 Development thread.
This is the Hero CDMA Development thread.
And don't get me started why they would name two completely different phones the same name.
That was very very dangerous thing you did.
If you loaded a CDMA ROM onto your GSM phone you would have bricked it. Be very careful. If you load any ROM other then the one for your phone there is nothing anyone on these forums can do for you. Your phone would be dead and unrecoverable.
Are you sure about that? Because I think flashing wrong rom would make you unable to load the rom, but you would still be able to enter recovery and flash a new rom. I've been told that the only really dangerous thing you could flash is wrong radio, but I might be mistaken.

The CDMA kernel flashed onto a GSM hero (or vice versa) can cause major damage IIRC. I think it tells the radio drivers to use a different voltage
But I may be wrong.
DON'T TRY IT THOUGH!
With regards to the original request, I would suggest trying VillainROM 5.5.0 if you're after a normal Hero ROM, and SlideVillain 1.1.0 if you're after a really fast port of the MyTouch Slide's ROM.
Personally, I use SlideVillain because of the sheer speed of it.
If you are interested in the VillainROM route, check out www.villainrom.co.uk

I think he meant the radio. Since att crippled our radios uplink speed. (Hsupa disabled). Could be wrong. But i think that's what he meant.

Was it necessary to be ugly?
I apologize for not explaining myself thoroughly.
No I was referring more to getting a dump off the rodgers captivate so we can get that firmware that only Rodgers releases and hope that hsupa is enabled. Because regardless of roms this captivate has been an awesome phone but what ATT did to this is unjustified and borderline illegal. Those @ssholes farked this phone up real good and it going to be awesome to get this thing free and 100% up and running.
Back to the them of this topic...
Vanilla rom would be nice as long as there is no att restrictions and this phone is 100% free .

Yes this is a 100% android stock 2.1 aosp rom, about the rodgers dump, it would be nice to have a look at it, but since there hasn't been any dump as of yet, were gonna have to wait.
do i go back to stock to use this?
Does this work on the captivate
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
This looks sooooo badass.
I just got the stock messaging application and the stock music player on my Captivate, now I see this. If they had data working I would be flashing it right now, but I rely heavily on data so I'll wait for the bugs to be worked out.
I really just hate TouchWiz and can't wait for a real vanilla experience.
Looks sexy, how hard would it be to fix the radio for us to use it? Also has anyone benched this beast?

Did you seriously ask just ask that?
yes it does. as it wouldnt be posted in the captivate section with the OP stating it runs on his captivate, and provided a picture of it running on his captivate.

Dude he didn't wanna read through the massive amount of posts in this thread (10) or the OP. I don't blame him! (it was hard keeping a strait face while typing that lol)
Now I am definitely interested in this because there is no point in running Touchwiz since it does seem to be pretty buggy and eventhough it is very colorful, I am using the latest launcher pro and prefer it but if I can get vanilla 2.1 running on my Captivate and be running data properly, then I will flash my phone with this.
Cheers,
Charlie

Did you wiped data/factory reset? Dalvik cache? If not do so and reflash.
thanks ill try that
i tried all that stuff and got same results
What advantage does a Vanilla Rom, have over stock w/Home Screen Replacement?
I know this has been posted in the Captivate forums, but I was wondering if any Fascinate devs had messed with it?

Doesn't really apply to the Fascinate since the i9000 is GSM.

It still has the same absolutely everything else hardware wise minus a hard-disabled (but still present) FM radio tuner, right? That's got to count for *something!*
There's no source in the leak, so no, it doesn't help much at all.
Kaos mentioned in his thread in the dev section that he may be able to use some libraries from this leak, but otherwise is not expecting any major breakthroughs.

There are a few things different besides the cell radio and fm radio. Either way, it's enough differences to prevent it from working.

im sure its better that the leak is out there than not...as was mentioned kaos/others may gleam a few things from it...
but much like the dozens of froyo leaks for all the other galaxy s variants over the months (including cdma) it wont be turned into a rom compatible with this phone
still it does show that samsung is actively working on gb for its touchwiz-based phones...so those that plan on keeping this phone for the 2 years that they might be tied into a contract *might* be in luck...in spring 2012 with a 2.3 ota
the rest of us that move on to whatever superphone comes out this summer/fall will have to put our hopes on a developing kaoscinate or whatever
