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

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.
Can we do this yet, or is it limited to Android 2.2 when we get it... I ask because the Aria does have rather limited internal memory, outside the use for a SDcard.

No we can't because we don't have a kernel to support it yet. As soon as we do, I'll add it to the liberated rom. That is, if we don't find our way to FroYo rom in the meantime.
well lets hope that Att and HTC get 2.2 out fast. Or if you or someone else can port the cyanogen mod from the MT3GS to the Aria

there's an app called 'apps installer'..but i've had issue with it crashing..not sure why..

Has anyone tried adding the old method of Apps2SD to the rom? You don't need a kernel for that.
Here's a guide I built to add the old Apps2SD to a rom...doesn't matter which Apps2SD.

I would like to get FroYo soon. Idc if it has sense or not.
yeah i would rather install it to SD too
Being that Android is based on linux, I don't wee why programs can't be moved to the sd card and have a symbolic link where the app normally would install. It would work in desktop linux, so why not Android?
Well you can but Google only added that feature in 2.2, I'm not sure about the idea behind it.
Sent from my HTC Liberty using XDA App
Google added that feature in 2.2, but there has been workarounds using the Linux method (symlinks) since Android 1.0 via CyanogenMod.
I know my Darktremor Apps2SD uses this method of redirecting Android via symlinks to an EXT partition on the SD card. Even the dalvik cache can be redirected if desired.
I know that CyanogenMod has an Apps2SD or a way to launch it via /system/bin/sysinit (at least it does in the CDMA Hero). If anyone is interested in trying it, here's the link to 2.7.5 final:
http://www.darktremor.info/files/a2sd/dtapps2sd-2.7.5-final-adv-signed.zip
If anyone tries it, let me know the results. Thanks.

A lot of roms can run live wallpapers, but the real problem is finding one that will work on the magic 32b or dream.
That said, does anyone know of perhaps a list of wallpapers confirmed to run smoothly on the more modest android devices?

LWPs just aren't worth it, the home screen is already slow enough, why bog it down even more and reduce your battery life at the same time. I can see how they're feasible for high-end devices, but not first-get armv6 devices.
Live wallpapers work fine on G1 and mytouch running OTA
Here's how
Uninstall any livepicker.apk
I put the com.android.wallpaper.livepicker.apk on my sd card and re-named it "live.apk" for simplicity then:
open up better terminal and run:
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cp /sdcard/live.apk /system/app
reboot
I ran a fix_permissions as well..

I'm not sure I understand fix_permissions? Is that another command in terminal? Does my myTouch have to be rooted? Also, is the livewallpaperpicker.apk yoshua posted in this thread what you used?
Thanks!
fix_permissions can be done with a custom recovery, terminal (though you might need busybox?) or in rom manager.
Any livewallpaperpicker.apk should work

I don't have a custom recovery. Completely stock. Do I have to root my phone to run that script you posted?
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.

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

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?

You're not alone. I have same problem, too. There's a lot more missing things like setup wizard, input languages other than English, etc... Not just wildpuzzle, same situation applies to some other custom roms I tried.
Weird thing is that there's no problem with old wildpuzzle 8.0.11. Maybe some dev would come out and compare it with others to find out what's wrong.

100%.
The things that are limited by stock version will be overcomed by dev software.
Personally i got S-OFF, bluetooth wireless pan tethering (kernel dependent) , live wall papers, better battery, and many other things.....
If everyone tells what they got benefited by dev software, then the list will be really huge.....
I also heard that wifi N and newer htc sense got enabled in devices that are not supported by stock (not sure about sense). Depends on what u consider. IMO, like i said 100%.

Try to compare the update-script files of both, and see if there is any part "missing" or something.
If both are alike/the same, then create a recovery-logfile just after flashing the latest wildpuzzle rom. Perhaps it will clear some things.

Could it be a problem related to AlphaRev?
this morning i've flashed an ruu stock rom and the problem is still here: empty htc wallpaper.
I doubt this is a wildpuzzle bug cause I've never flash one of those rom (only cyanogen, jokerdroid, dk).
the only things in common are alpharev and clockworkmode (i'm using cwm2.5) but the latter is out there since too long to discover a bug just now.
I restore stock and no problem ..
did you restore stock through recovery or the executable ruu?

And yes, it's not a wildpuzzle related error. It happens in all custom roms and ruu except wildpuzzle 8.0.11.
