CyanogenMod-6 for Hero V6.0.0 - RC1

1. Not many bugs, camera issue fixed. GPS works fine (just have to play with it a little)

2.Try an oc'ed kernel, it will help with the battery life [Kernel] BrainFuct Kernel - UncappedKernel - xda-developers I would try the stable kernels if you want GPS to work

3. Stock kernel better than 2.1 in my opinion for battery life

If you want better battery life try Collin_ph Battery Tweak RC1 for Cyanogen / Darch Froyo roms (possibly others) - xda-developers Some have said 40 hours of battery life with the tweak

Nandroid first before flashing;)

I just got done flashing and HOLY CRUD! There is 0 lag when I am typing in landscape mode. Its absolutely amazing!!!!

Do I have to run an adb shell to remove things like adw launcher and stuff though? I have the Pro version of Launcher Pro that I love - so I'd like to get rid of ADW for more space.

Any reason why I shouldn't continue to use Autokiller?

Also, why are Goggles, Maps, ROM Manager, Google Voice, Facebook all locked from uninstallation. I want to manage these exclusively through the market (and I don't want Voice at all) - do I have to remove via adb shell and then install again from the market?

Thanks,

ADW doesn't take up a lot of space, but you can use Titanium Backup to remove apps like that and whatnot.

I just opened up a debug shell and removed it manually. I like Bash commands as opposed to GUI's when working with this stuff.

So I only have 3 questions now that I have my phone set up exactly the way I want it (In addition to the link I provided above about problem with GVoice ringing 2x)

1. Any way to stop the "Phantom Voice Mail Message" that occurs on startup asking you to call your google voice number?

2. Any way to get the popup asking what to do upon plugging the phone in via USB.

3. In order to update the aforementioned apps, do I have to remove (via adb shell) them and redownload them myself?
 
The above link works fine. The link on the page to the zip file for to the blueext sep 04 doesn't work. It appears that mediafire is the site hosting the zip file and everytime I click on the zip file, the page doesn't load.

Looks like only the sendspace link works for now
 
Hey all

It's been a while since I've flashed a rom. I got this one going CM6 RC1. What do I get when I download the google addon?

What do I have to do to get visual voicemail working? I don't see it in my apps folder.

Does this ROM have apps2sd built in? If so, how do I use it? I'd love to keep phone memory as free as possible but not willing to risk bricking the phone to get it running.

I plan on flashing an OC kernel. What are my options for something stable so I can still reliably use GPS?

I would like the battery tweak as well, where do I get this and will there be any issues running it with an OC kernel?

Also, is there any reason to flash the nightlies with RC1?

I love the fact that Sense UI is gone! I was thinking today that I would love to find out how to disable it on the fresh rom i was running when I stumbled upon this. EPIC ROM!

A lot of questions I know, sorry for that, I just have an obsession with getting things done as quickly as possible, don't want to leave my phone incomplete for tomorrow.

Thanks!
 
Ok, downloaded the stable OC kernel. How do I utilize it? How do I overclock the cpu?

EDIT: Dowloaded OC widget. It wont let me go over 691...any ideas?

A2SD is built in

I would flash a nightly now, since the RC1 is almost a month old

battery tweak Collin_ph Battery Tweak RC1 for Cyanogen / Darch Froyo roms (possibly others) - xda-developers If you flash the battery tweak you will no longer need the oc widget
 
You should be able to OC with the uncapped, that's odd

Can you use your oc widget? That also needs root to use

Yes, the oc widget functioned but TB would not get root access. Also, superuser permissions would force close.

I'll try a nightly, where do I access the most current/follow them as they are released?
 
Thanks, got the nightly running. Ill try to get titanium backup to work again once i get the google pack installed. Any ideas why it isnt finding root access?

If you are comfortable at all using BASH (Unix/Linux) commands, just download the SDK on your computer and open an ADB Shell to do it. Don't mess around with the garbage actually on the phone.

1. Download SDK
2. Open Command Prompt/Terminal
3. Navigate to [PATHTOSDK]/tools
4. Type 'adb remount' or, if running *nix/OSX './adb remount'
5. Type 'adb shell' or, if running *nix/OSX './adb shell'
6. Type 'cd /system/app'

'ls' will get you a listing of everything in the directory.
'rm [filename]' will remove the specified file.

7. When you are done just type 'exit', close the terminal, and unplug the phone and you are good to go!
