12/18/2009 [UNOFFICIAL] v1.3a - CDMA MoDaCo ROM 1.3 - Hero CDMA Android Development

THIS ROM HAS NOW BEEN SUPERCEEDED BY MODACO ROM 2.0. I WILL NO LONGER BE PROVIDING UPDATES/SUPPORT FOR THIS ROM.
12/18/09 Update
Here is my most recent version of the updated MoDaCo rom. I have fixed the version display info.
This rom should be safe to upgrade from stock or MoDaCo 1.1 roms.
If you experience force closures the issue is with your dalvik-cache or your boot-cache.
You can clear your dalvik cache from the recovery mode. Do not do a factory wipe. Choose the dalvik-cache wipe/clear.
You can clear your boot-cache from adb as a temporary fix by typing:
rm -r /data/boot-cache
reboot
Changelog:

-rebuilt properties file
-shuffled some apk's around
1.3:

Get 1.3 here.
Install from the recovery console. No wipe should be necessary!
Please post here if you have problems.

Just flashed from 1.1, getting a bunch of force close messages on boot can't use internet, software version 1.29 so no update, don't know if I should've flashed from stock but thought id try from 1.1.

I'll look into it later right now I need sleep. FYI I updated from a stock patched Rom freshly rooted. You may need to do a wipe for it to work properly. Also i hand copied the individual patched files into the modaco 1.1 to make this work. I am new to this so I do not know how to update the version # by hand editing yet.

getting a bunch of force close messages also,plus it lags pretty much
dunno why but i tried it,thx anyway..time to flash again .

Is the bluetooth audio streaming working?

works great nice job man

i would also like to know if you can play media via bluetooth speakers on this ROM...all ROMs w/ the MR update don't seem to be able to do it, but the Sprint MR update w/ no custom ROM installed can

I got a bunch of force closes when it booted up. I also noticed the browser and some google apps will no longer open and just force close.

mine works perfect

Works fine for me. I did revert back to stock before doing the update and reset my data to be sure.
The build number in the "about" screen is the old number, but things do seem to be updated to the new stuff anyway. To change the build number, I think you need to edit the /system/build.prop file.
Great work!

My force closures have healed themselves! Well, except for the "market" app but I bet I can uninstall/reinstall it.
Obelisk, hopefully this description of my steps helps in finding some answers...
Last night, before I saw obelisk's first few posts regarding his experiment, I had decided to bite the bullet and flash back to the stock Sprint RUU.
First I copied all of my app and app-private folders to my SD card. Then, I did a nandroid backup and then flashed the RUU. I let Sprint download and install the MR. Then I rooted and flashed the recovery image. This is when I found obelisk's posts and decided to try it out. After I flashed his "unofficial" update I booted up and then rebooted (it stated "reboot required" in the menu\settings\about phone\build number after "MoDaCo Custom ROM"). At that point everything was working fine. No force closures, phone was sleeping correctly, I had mute and speaker phone buttons in the call screen, etc...
I decided to copy my apps back, restore my nandroid backup (even though I knew this would undo everything I had just done) and then reflash obelisk's updated modaco again. After doing that I rebooted and got a ton of force close errors. I just closed them all and went to bed!
HERE"S THE WEIRD PART! I woke up this morning and the only force close I'm getting now is with the market app (and ONLY if I try to open it). All my other restored apps are working fine. I am about to go to work but I will play around with this some more. I'm keeping it for now!

I just rebooted and all of the force close errors came back. I guess I'm going to go back to my original pre-MR nandroid backup.

i think the problem is related to the software version number which i haven't figured out how to update yet, so a lot of the apps, and yes there were about 20, that were patched in the maintenance release don't get updated properly until i increment the rom version somehow. i'll mess with it tonight when i get home from work.

did a fresh ruu, and updated this custom rom over a rooted stock, did a factory reset after the install and absolutely no issues.... A+ job buddy

How do you go about doing a fresh ruu?

I'm going off of memory here but...
1. download the sprint RUU
2. install HTC Sync on your pc if you have not already done so
3. connect your phone to your computer
4. run RUU (it's an executable file)
5. Follow prompts
6. Reboot phone into stock un-rooted goodness/badness depending on your opinion.

Is your battery fully (or at least mostly) charged?
EDIT: Sorry, I just noticed that's a different error.

Great Rom
I came from a rooted stock Rom wither the Mr update...wiped, flashed...apps2sd, then reboot. Worked flawlessly! I also added the extras from another Rom and everything is running fine. Great work on this..

are you getting error code 107 or 170? google provides no help for error code 107...

WiFi Tether stoped working!!!

WiFi tether was working a few days ago before I had to run the Sprint RUU. I went to use it today and it keeps force closing when I touch "Start Tethering"
I have re-rooted since I loaded the RUU.
Loaded Amon RA 1.5.1 Recovery Rom
I loaded Fresh 1.0 (I think it maybe a problem here)
Any Ideas from anyone?
@K
I had the same issue with Fresh 1.0. Just google search Wireless Tether, and download v1.70 from the website, and reinstall. Have you had any voicemail issues since fresh 1.0? I no longer have a voicemail app...?
Voice mail works fine for me.
Are you sure it is missing or just doesn't have an Icon???
Nope...It is gone...No .apk, nothing...and the phone no longer prompts when new voicemails come in..as in I checked yesterday and had 16 new voicemails! Haha.
Wow. I will post my APK later and see if it will install back on yours.
Thanks bro
I can't find an APK clearly called voicemail... if anyone knows where/what this thing is called I will pull it. Otherwise I am lost. I've looked all over the phone.
Found it!!
Let me know how this works. Not sure what all Spint_Core has in it...
That is the voice mail app alright...Problem is..I get this,
What program are you using to install it? I was having the same problem and was trying to install it with app manager through astro and it wasnt working. I did it a couple times and then i found tje vm app in the /system/app folder and i tried installing it from there and astro gave me the option of using package installer and it finally installed. I still didnt get vm notifications for a couplu days but then all of a sudden it starded working yesterday
Did you do a full wipe before installing Fresh? I kept having apps missing, force close issues; everytime I changed ROMS. I narrowed in down to apps2sd. If the apps were on my phone went I added the new rom, everything went smooth, the rom would move them after boot. But if they were already there, the rom would boot up, and not seem to find the programs. The only other workaround was using astrofilemanager and doing a apk backup and restore. Now if I switch, I do a full wipe and then restore all my settings/apps. Seems to work seamless that way.
I do not have apps2SD enabled (no ext part.) because I like to help test new roms...and things can get nasty. Yes, I did a full wipe when I did 1.0...No luck..It was like one day with 1.0 it was there, then poof...no dice. I even wiped and reinstalled 1.0 and no dice.

I updated some things and added some screen shots.
Wow, and I thought I was the only person with Appalachian Wireless to Root, you know I had a terrible time rooting. Just about every guide I could find was for Sprint only. I wish I had found you about 2 months ago. I had to upgrade to the Stock 2.1, before I was able to root. Did you have as hard of a time getting your Hero rooted as I did on Appalachian Wireless? Just curious.

no i waited until 2.1 was released and rooted, i didn't want to take the chance of messing up my carrier settings with the sprint RUU, and not being able to restore them, i was tempted though very tempted.
Could you please host this somewhere else??? I cant get it to download from mediafire..
can't download it ,can u give another link ty

please be patient with me I'm working on this, should be fixed in a little while.
OK because all my files on mediafire got wiped
and i was going to release this newer version in a couple days anyway, i decided to go ahead and post it tonight.
the only thing missing that i wanted to include in this version is some custom mods i made for it.
i decided to just add them to the original post as metamorph addons instead of including them with the rom, that way you can pick and choose which ones you want instead of me I'll try to have them up soon.
Very nice codejunkie. You've got a little more accomplished with this rom than what I got done with it. My rom was pretty much bare stock. Nothing removed. I was able to get it de-odexed, but when I started looking into changing the rosie, that was when things started becoming unstable.

Awesome man kudos to you...Thank you so much been hitting all the others since someone talked me through a root back in early summer and forgot how nice sense was. How do we add themes for it?

4349 with market

installed 4349 today....had some minimal trouble with this hack when installing mybackup pro images but works fine besides. anyways i wanted market and the other gapps on a stock rom with zero other changes. ie ota still works etc...
1. save the update.zip to your root drive on your gtablet
2. turn off then reboot pressing the power and volume-up key
3. choose wipe data/factory reset (must do or the next step will not work properly)
4. after it completes choose apply internal update.zip
5. reboot, allow android to stablize
6. run market (apps will show up but the following steps make sure more do)
7. run android settings-> applications -> system applications -> market
stop market
8. run android settings-> applications -> system applications ->google services frame work
clear data then force stop
9. reboot and your market should be fully functional.
link for to gapps on cyanogens site, remember to rename it as update.zip before saving to your gtab http://android.d3xt3r01.tk/cyanogen/gapps/gapps-mdpi-tegra-20101020-signed.zip
Thanks for taking the plunge. I'll give this a shot tonight when I get home and report back.
After I installed 4349 and booted up I took your linked file, renamed it update.zip, and rebooted the tab into recovery. I just flashed it and didn't do anything else. After the tablet rebooted I skipped some of the setup screens for Google framework and when I ran market it started to update apps automatically. So it worked without doing steps 3,7,8 & 9 for me, although updating Angry Birds from market made the tablet quick reboot... Which was fixed by uninstalling and reinstalling. Everything else works ok.
times i tried to skip step 3 the gapps package would not install properly. it would stop early on the install progress bar and no market or any other apps showed up on reboot. as for steps 7,8,9 those are market fix steps...few apps were missing and those are needed to get them to show up. though the default market is much much fuller then previous hacks. would love to know if anyone else has any other issues similar to mine or not.
also has anyone got myback pro working on 4349. i can install it from market but as soon as i restore any of my programs my reboot-up freezes on the tnt logo. only cure is to nvflash and reinstall.
Tried this a few times with a fresh 4339 installed, followed the steps exactly, but never get the google apps to show up. Oddly, during the install of the update.zip, the tablet resets, and boots normally. I expected to be returned to recovery after installing the update.zip
i have done the fix several times now with the same needs step wise and results...mainly cause i am trying to figure out mybackup pro cause it keeps borking by device and i have to nvflash and start over. turbo you did all the steps and didn't get the gapps package working? make sure your stock 4349 other wise the bluish CWM like thing isn't there to load update.zip's. otherwise i am at a loss? anyone else having trouble?
I an ran through all the steps up to 6.... but now there is no Market app.
I checked the update zip that was on my root (/sdcard is what I assume you mean by root as there is where the other update.zip is, though I initially assumed you meant / as the root) and it is the one that was downloaded from here.
What am I missing? It seems to be it installed the basic 4349
the only way i get those results you speak of is when i omit step 3. are you rebooting between as i am not.
I did step 3 as I had to run through the setup again.
I did not reboot in between step 3 and step 4.
should this work if i installed clockwork after the update?
I just went through it again, step by step, and it did the exact same thing. No Market.
Just to clarify, when I hit apply internal update.zip, the gTab reboots for me. In your instructions you say reboot. When mine boots it takes me into the first time user setup for the gTab, which is UELA, timezone, wireless, username then into the Non-Classic (not sure what it is called, but the one with the weather, news, etc) UI.
haven't used cwm with 4349 as i heard it crashes it though a very similar interface is built into this stock rom.

Yes, followed all steps, from a completely stock 4349 (with the 4349 recovery), and no gapps installed.
Justin
if you have done the steps exactly i am not sure what to tell you. and yes it should reboot itself. i have tried the fix a dozen times with no issues so i am not sure what it is your doing differant if anything at all. as of right now i can't reproduce anymore results on 4349 as its not showing up on the OTA anymore as my mybackup pro borked me into yet another install. is 4349 still showing up for other people?

Can you verify that when you say root you mean /sdcard/?
Outside of the Market is there any way to tell if it did it right, like some file someplace? I checked the /system/app folder and it has none of the apps that were in your update.zip in the app folder, does this mean anything?
I renamed my old update.zip to update_old.zip, could this cause a problem?
yes the root drive i spoke of is /sdcard. i do not think your renamed file should cause a conflict though you might try deleting it and see. again the only time i had this trouble was when i didn't do a factory wipe first...every other time it has worked but i don't know if their is some trouble with 4349 as it seems to have been pulled from the OTA in the last half hour. can anyone else confirm the OTA now set back to 3588?
I deleted update_old.zip, and no dice.
If you come up with some troubleshooting steps I am happy to try them.

Don't apply Clockwork .08, you will soft brick your tab.
Well I applied the gapps using clockworkmod from roebeet for 1.2 bootloaders and everything flashed fine. Running the latest version so I dunno.

[Q] Can't download from app market - and no backup!?!

Hi all...I hope someone can help with my problem.
Background: After my stock phone 'crashed' last week I have spent a few days on the forum's and have learnt how to fix it.... First I created a goldcard and recovered the device using a stock WWE ROM (updated device using the PB.zip method). This all seemed fine, so then decided to use enrevoked3 to root....this went fine and I ended up with rooted version of a stock WWE ROM (I think?). It wasn’t until I decided to install a custom ROM (starting with a backup) that I found I couldn’t download anything from the app market!
I thought it was unrevoked that had caused the problem so re-flashed the WWE ROM, but found I still had the same issue (an no longer a rooted device ).
After researching on the forums it looks like I’m missing the gtalk.apk which is used by the app store (does this mean the WWE ROM I have is not up to date or complete?) However, this isnt so much of a problem if you reinstall the gtalkservices.apk, but after trying 3 different apk files from 3 different threads on this subject I still am unable to download anything from the app store (the apk's wont install and just come up with an error - 'application wont install' - also I tried this on the phone when it was rooted and after I reflashed back to the WWE ROM)
Can anyone suggest how I fix this?? I dont have a stock ROM that I can flash back to and I didnt have a backup of my original ROM as I hadn't expected to need it (as before last week my phone was 02 stock).
As a thought I wonder if I re-root with unrevoked and then installed a custom ROM (not the WWE ROM I currently have, something like Cyanogen or Miui) that maybe this would solve the problem assuming the custom ROM I installed included all the relevant gtalk apk’s etc??
I have tried to find the solution without posting another thread, but none of the other threads I have read seem to cover the same issue (most of the solutions are either re-flash your previos ROM, which I cant do, or install the apk, which doesnt seem to work..)
any and all help much appreciated
apart from step 5...this seems to have worked...hope it helps someone else one day ;-)
1) go to settings>applications>manage applications>all>google services framework>clear data
2) go to settings>applications>manage applications>all>market>clear cache and force close
3) go to settings>applications>manage applications>all>market>clear cache and clear data
4) Reboot phone
5) Open and sign out of GTalk, then re-open and sign in.
6) Open Market and accept agreement. Let it load your apps. Close Market.
7) Go to market.android.com and sign in. Go to My Market Account>Settings tab>Edit>Nickname your phone and click Update.
8) Install an app from market.android.com.

Update from NDE63U to NMF26O broke System UI

Hello,
something went wrong during my Update from 7.1.0 (Europe, NDE63U, Nov 2016) to 7.1.1 (NMF26O, Dec 2016). My System UI behaves cracy. Examples:
- click on the Multitask Button doesn't pop up recent apps, does actually nothing
- long click on home shows the assistant icon but nothing happens
- I don't get any notification (Mail, SMS, Telegram, ...) nothing
- if I pull down to the notifications and quick settings I can change WLAN and BT.
-- if I click on Mobile Data it is always off although I seem to be connected.
-- if I clicked on mobile data quick tile and close / reopen the notifications area I still see the mobile data view
-- I can't pull down the notifications again to get the bigger setting toggles
- I tried Google Pixel Launcher as well as the Microsoft Arrow Launcher, both the same
Else the system behaves OK, I can start all Apps, they behave normally. Also the new dt2w or l2w work.
How can I reset my System UI without resetting the whole phone? I am bootloader unlocked and rooted (v2.78 SR3 without TWRP installed).
Thank you very much!
KobiP
Last the story how I reached that state:
- I updated from 7.1.0 to 7.1.1 by flasing the imgs manually. Something went wrong and I got stuck in a bootloop
- reflashed 7.1.1 again. This time it booted but I got a message that something is wrong and I should contact the vendor. I could not get any mobile connection, WIFI was working
- Nothing except reflashing 7.1.0 helped. With 7.1.0 I got already the behaviour described above
- Flashed again the 7.1.1 with the flash-all.bat (removed the -w parameter to keep my data). This time I could boot 7.1.1 and get cellular connection, no error message appeared. But still the cracy behaviour described above.
Get Google firmware package and flash all . You can chase your tail or spend 15 min to properly flash.

Hey,
I have used the flash all bat without the "-w" flag. Thats how I could get 7.1.1 running with the Cellular connection. Still cracy System UI behaviour.
This is slightly off topic, bit I'm going to throw it in here anyway.
I'm dual booting, stock with elementalX kernel on slot_a, rooted on slot_b. I have been using the altered flash all scripts in post 2 or3. It never works. The initial firing flashes only the bootloader and the radio, I have to copy the update command section from the .bat file and paste.it manually into fastboot for the system and vendor to update.
I don't know if others may have been copying the scripts and altering them to their own needs, but the final step in the batch file has never worked for me as is.

Hey,
you are using Linux? I could just run the script in Windows Batch and it was working smooth.
To fix the Issue I tried to clear the Data of the System UI, Settings, Google and loads of other Google Apps. Nothing helped. Then I realised that I could not even reach my Data via USB as I could not see the Notification where I can change between charging and data mode. So I made a Titanium Backup to Google Drive and reset my phone with the original flash-all.bat Script (with -w Parameter). It was working smooth, now my phone is reset and thanks to Titanium I have most of my stuff back.
Cheers
