Froyo on Hero!

So I made the mistake of installing the Sprint Visual Voicemail on this rom. I'm not sure how to get rid of it now. There is no uninstall option for it. I'm assuming I need to do some adb commands but don't have a clue how.

WiFi tethering isn't built in on 2.2 but it's offered as a pay service from the carrier.. or get the wifi tether app from the market.

to make it more SenseUI like... look into beautiful widgets in the market.. it's a pay app but will give you a look and feel similar to SenseUI

to get a bit better battery life, flash the battery tweak listed above

Thanks mystic. I guess I was wrong about wi-fi tethering being built into Froyo. Not sure why I thought it was, but I thought I read it somewhere. Not a big thing though, since I already use the wifi tether app.

I had already installed the battery tweak when I made my previous post. I wasn't complaining about battery life. In fact, I was saying that I am impressed with it.

I restored my DC ROM for now, but I'll play with Froyo again this weekend. When I do, I'll have a look at beautiful widgets if it doesn't cost too much. I already paid for launcherpro plus, and they guy is promising some sense like widgets in the next couple weeks. He already released a people widget and it looks similar to the sense one. I'll see how it goes next time I play with it.
 
Is there another option for a better keyboard or am I doing something wrong?

There doesnt seem to be any corrective spelling or word prediction with the stock keyboard.
 
when i installed froyo last week, i accidently installed the clockworkmod recovery console...i honestly dont like it..i want my carebear back lol...i try to flash it through cmd prompts but i cant get it..and if i try to flash my nandroid backup from 2.1 it doesnt recognize it..any suggestions?

there IS corrective spelling and word prediction, but you have to go into the settings and select them...if i'm not mistaken i think they WERE already selected and i just unchecked them and checked them again and it worked..

Use either the xda keyboard or smart keyboard, you can get both for free.

Via the market, or do you have links? Is the keyboard Flipz uses in his 2.1 ROMs able to work with 2.2?

I had went into settings since I remember seeing these options. They indeed were all checked. I unchecked and checked them again. Still nothing. It offers a quick snippet of symbols and whatnot after words, but doesnt attempt to correct anything, or suggest any words.

If this is the one being mentioned, then it does not work.

[MOD] HTC_IME (8th June) v27: Small fix - xda-developers

I unzipped, installed the APKs, activated it, long press input field, select input type, HTC IME, and the keyboard never pops up.

Edit: Thanks to guys at XDA, apparently 2.2 doesnt work with 2.2, you must use the 1.5 version for it to work with this ROM.

does OC Widget not quite work well (or at all) with this ROM?
Click to expand...

If you install the battery tweak/fix, it says to not use setCPU or OC programs since the tweak is optimizing the CPU already.

Without it, I havent seen anything saying either yes or no.

I had the same problem where the corrections and predictions weren't working, but the boxes were checked. When I had the problem I was on cyanogenmod 6.0.0 Test 4....I flashed to cyanogenmod 6.0.0 RC0 and now it works perfectly...

I went from Test 4 to RC1, and checked it again, it works now. Not sure which I like better though. So many options!

I pretty sure if you open up Rommanager it will give you the option to reflash the RA 1.6.2. However, it's not the blue version with the carebear, but given your circumstances, I don't think you would care.

You might need to make sure that it is on you SD card.
