Updating recovery-RA-heroc-v1.2.3 to 1.5.2? - Hero CDMA Android Development

what do I have to do?

Read the sticky about the 1.5.2

?? link please....

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=596879
You might read a little about this ROM before flashing, some People Are Experiencing issues, but not all, i happen to be one of them with the Dalvik Cache Clearing problem.

Agimax thanks alot, I'm reading it right now. I Think I'm going to stick with 1.2.3 for now until the prob gets fixed.

It's pretty much OK to go ahead and just upgrade to the newest recovery. I just did using Flipz's auto-rooter, and it works 100% for me.

I flashed the new v1.5.2 recovery image directly over v1.2.3 and didn't have any problems at all.

Yes, after all, it's so hard to just plug in a cable and clear the cache via adb if the recovery won't do it for some reason.
I think I'd take the potential weirdism with something you (a) seldom do, and (b) has a more than acceptable workaround, vs (c) the known nandroid breakage in 1.5.1.

You just flashed it off the sd like any other update? Is that the way to go people?

No, actually following the directions written by Amon_RA in the thread announcing the recovery image is probably the way to go.

Used Flipz auto-rooter in the pre-kitchen as well to go to 1.5.2 as well with no issues.

HELP! Standby Block!!!

Hi guys!!
I'm really desperate.
Today I installed copilot 8, after a while the phone when goes in standby doesn't wake up anymore. When I press the menu button it remains down.
So I tried to reflash myhero 1.1.2 but in vain, and if I try to wipe I get the boot loop on hero logo.
The rotation doesn't work.
Please help me!!!!
Format your ext partition, wipe and flash again.
I use copilot 8 and the same ROM and I haven't that kind of issues on the full version of myhero v1.1.2! On a previous version on the 2.6.29 kernel when never I closed the copilot 8 the system crashed. Then I flashed the red's HTC kernel 2.6.27 and the issue never happened to me again. On this new version, the GPS is working fine for me! I just installed a fresh and clean ROM..
Do you deleted the save folder on the copilot 8, before re-installing the app or it was a fresh install? Is mandatory whenever you re-install the app.
When you install it, be sure you don't have this folder, no matter what is the situation!
Edit: I didn't read the second part of your issue.. Evil is right.. no other solution
It was the first install!
It can be a kernel problem?
Evil, when I try to wipe it goes in loop with the hero logo, do you think that formatting will work?

I had this prob too.. after my micr sd card was set as damaged by the android sys and i wasn't able to start the device as well. But, the device was able to boot without the microsd card. Try it too. If so backup the information in your pc and format and remove the partitions of the microsd card (if you didn't do it before)!
I tried it, but the bug remains, I think it's something in the OS...

My friend, the best solution is really to try it..install other rom, just for testing! ,,at least to have something to work on it.. step by step.. I use the same ROM, the newest version of copilot (and I previously was with olders ones without prob too), swapper, overclock, 2.6.29 red's kernel (without BFS), Engineered SPL, no radio changes, bla bla..
Gives a description of what is the state of your gear..
I already started to think that it can happen that some piece of hardware on the device is broken, but lets see.. no false alarms,,
Let's try to understand the status!
Of course! I have a 32a with no radio update, engineering spl 2010 and .29 kernel bfs. I Aldo tried without bfs but in vain.
The last thing left to do is trying another ROM....but there's a low level formatting method?

If there is, it was never spoken here.. the only way I see the internal phone partitions formating is when applying a new room...
Remove the sdcard/copilot directory and reinstall copilot

No need for excuses.. Man, "just" in my opinion.. you might have some broken hardware on your device.. I can't find any other answer. Flash back everything original like it should be and send it to warranty. There's SPL collections, there's original ROM's from HTC, etc etc..
I'm sorry.. I'm unable to help you.. Maybe someone has other idea, or something, but in opinion you a broken device..

Guide to help install froyo on your hero :)

Removed at the request of the dev, official release will be available soon !
Ok the second link isn't working, so my best solution is to use the original recovery image, that you used to have, to do this i simple rerooted my phone, and pushed the flash file and it worked perfect, no errors or fc's so far!
The ROM link has been killed by MediaFire.... reup?

No, that's it. The FroYo ROMs are tiny.
Holy crap, i thought because it simply said recovery it was the recovery image, not the entire rom. well my sd card will thank me!!!!!
yea it works, the froyo rom is small, thats why it runs so smoothly on your device
Not bad, although I'll personally be waiting for some of the bugs to be fixed before I head on up to Froyo.
Looking forward to it
EDIT: Dongs.
IF ANYONE runs into a "sd card no mounted" " no sdcard" problem you need to wipe the ext. part of your sd card if you have one, also remember to wipe before beginning a new rom flash, do the nanadroid backup and wipe dalvik cache for saftey just in case
does this change your hboot and make it impossible to go back to 2.1?

[REF] MARKET PRBLEM SOLVED after. Doc's V5.1.1+ to V7.5 in 3 minutes.

Hi guys & gals.
I am a keen flasher, even an OCRF http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=823702
But restoring all your themes & 170+ applications could take me a better part of half a day, hence I was apprehensive.
Well, this time around I tried something different. IT WORKS. No need to backup your settings. No need to Factory reset, Wipe data before hand. DONT DO THEM. No need to remove your old lagfix (Sztupy's 0.3 ONLY). No need to remove your tweaks. No need to backup your apps & whatelse.
Here is what I did, Went into Recovery, checked which lagfix I was using, what tweaks were turned on, noted them down.
Downloaded V7, put it on my sdcard as update.zip, went into recovery & applied update.zip.
When my phone rebooted into recovery, I went back & reapplied all my settings. Lagfix & tweaks.
When I restarted, everything was as it was 3 minutes ago, but only with V7. I mean NOT A SINGLE FC, everything in its place, & believe me I have a VERY costomized 5 pages of ADW with 170+ apps, 800+contacts, 500 log entreis for calls, sms APN settings, JUST EVERYTHING..
I hope this helps someone.YOU CANT HOLD ME RESPONSIBLE IF IT BREAKS YOUR PHONE. This experience is being shared with good intentions.
I am very sure its Sztupy's modified CWM that makes this possible.
Check the last few posts in Doc_Kalpik's post, they are painfully, undoing the lag fix, backing things up, flashing & then restoring. 6 hrs of life GONE.
IF IT HELPS SAY IT HERE, might help others.
OK, after testing this method for 7.5 hours, here is my revised review. Before I did this, My gmail, sms, noLED & a lot of other apps were giving me FC's, Now thats GONE. The market was totally unreliable, starting the download, doesn't finish, downloads get linked, (that was the worst) & all sorts of issues. MARKETS NOW WORKS FLAWLESSLY.
EarlZ confirms that using this method he has come from V5.1.1 to V7 without issues.
Nice one. I'll give it a try.

better to disable lagfix before (specially the dbdata != rfs).
if u need to reflash with odin and dbdata is not rfs, it will be wiped.

hi guys
one question
do you use CWR for back up or other app
So if its done we rename it via update.zip and use 2e recovery nothing gets wiped as compared to the choose zip file from CWM ?

IF you are running Doc_Kalpik's v6 with ULK, you can switchover to V7 by this method. Yea, remane it as update zip, enter into Sztupy's CWM, flash sdcard:update.zip
yup works. but i went to choose the .zip file to flash. works the same. (as long as the kernel supports the same filesystem as you have chosen for the lagfix, then all will be well )

[HOW TO] Flash Froyo without loosing downgradability and keeping cam flash

Thought I'd better post this before everyone flashes these sbfs and looses downgradability (is that a word?)
So as you may have worked out this process is if you have never flashed a non downgradable .sbf i.e you have never flashed 2.51 eclair or the 2.2 GB/US 2.2 froyo. If you flashed these then this won't work for you and youve lost downgrability.
Follow the process below, This works with the TMobile US and The GB 3.4.2 Firmwares.
It may seem long winded, but it is the only way to get it running with everything working ok and still downgradable/able to flash other .sbf, most notably the cam flash working 100% - fully sync'd and no greeny blue tinge to it.
Need the Chinese 2.2 release – Download Here
Need the system.img nandroid and boot/devtree.sbf – Download here
Also now added the GB system image+md5 - the one that racca added in the original thread. Download hear
• Flash the Chinese .sbf by RSD lite
• Once booted root via superoneclick http://bit.ly/gUzV19 then reboot (make site debugging on)
• Install Clockworkmod recovery app http://bit.ly/dOdhKc , open app, install recovery and then boot into recovery (make sure debugging is off whenever you boot into recovery
• Wipe data/cache in recovery
• Flash the Tmob 3.42 system image(pre rooted) via advanced restore (folder need to be put in goapkrev/backup folder)
• Once restored pull battery, put battery back in while holding up to get into bootloader
• Flash the boot/devtree.sbf once its rebooted after this you are done.
If you want to use the GB release then just restore the system.img from the GB release.
Enjoy and don't get locked in peoples.
Thanks to adlx whom I enjoyed working with to figure this out - team effort! +as always Sorensiim for the hosting!
I don't think you actually need to flash anything other than boot/devtree.
I tried TMO with uk2.51 and it was just fine.
And if someone followed your post exactly as it is now. Chances are they'd
get their phone bricked (since many are already on 2.51).
Easy to fix for sure, but since it is most likely meant for less experienced
users, we really don't want that, right?
BTW
Thanks for writing it up.
Quick question for you Higgsy...
On one of the original T-Mobile Froyo threads, you posted update files to bypass the Motoblur Setup ("Skip_Blur_adlx-signed" worked fantastically...much thanks!).
Are those modifications included in these posted files already?
EDIT: Went ahead and tried it both with and without the update. Answer is that you cannot skip Moto Setup with this install; however, the Skip_Blue_adlx-signed update will allow you to if the update is applied before leaving recovery.
EDIT: Credit goes to adlx, as it was his file (mis-remembered...should have known better from the file name though). Using Higgsy's instructions and links and adlx's update, I now have a working working US 3.42 with the Motoblur setup bypassed. Thanks to all those who made that possible.
sorry to bother, but as I am now having the green light problem after flashing the "flash fix" several weeks ago, can I get the normal flash back using this method?
and thank you for your work....

No you can't. Nandroid backup and/or SBF won't do anything on that front.
As I am on the UK sbf, this will not be of much use to me. Thankfully, I have no issues with that sbf, so I do not need this.
That said, thank you from those who do.

what do you mean by "on that front"?
means that fix package consists some fundamental codes that had thoroughly change the hardware control? and nandroid backup as well as SBF could not overwrite that part?
Forgot to put in the post this is if you have not flashed a non downgradable .sbf before, although I would have thought people would be able to work that out by the nature of the thread.
This will work and will fix you cam flash if you are coming from 2.21+2.35 Eclair ROMs or 2.2 Chinese ROM where you haven't flashed a non downgradable .sbf

[Q] Can't reboot !

So I have a small problem with my One S (S4).
Whatever ROM I flash I also have to flash fastboot boot.img wheter it's really needed for the ROM or not.
But that's not all.
Every time I want to reboot my phone, whatever ROM it is.. i get stuck in a bootloop and I have to fastboot flash boot.img again.
So basically I can't reboot/restart my phone without connecting it with USB and fastboot..
Really. Not even 1 reply?
Thats what I get for waiting a week and not bumping the thread awesome
I think you got no responses cause this is covered everywhere from OP's to many posts on it in the threads. So, unless I misunderstand your post, you have to flash the boot image all the time if you are on hboot > than .09. Or, you will bootloop. If this is what is happening you need to read up more in the threads before flashing the rom. Also, highly recommend you wipe system along with data and caches before flashing new rom.
Good Luck on it--

Ya I think you did misunderstand because it sounds like it works but each time he reboots he needs to flash boot.img again which is odd.

No need for the comment like that more so when no one really knows what's up but try Flash Image GUI to flash the boot.img and see how things play out.
