[HERO ROM] Sneak Peek Working Donut on CDMA Hero

[ThatGuyOverThere]

I would love to be a tester and/or see this rom released. It looks really nice, and I think I'd love the new Market.

There's a download link on page 7 of this thread.

With the release of the CDMA Hero Kernel today, can we expect this rom to take off now? Or does it not have anything to do with this?? Sorry don't know much about all the programming stuff...

The kernel should show what kind of hacks they had to use to get 1.5 working on CDMA networks as well as any hardware drivers built into the kernel. As long as they really are built-in, and the guys over at XDA believe them to be, someone smarter than I am should be able to use those along with their own customizations to get everything working.

The kernel source was needed for development past 1.6. Donut runs with the same kernel as cupcake, which is why this was started. I do plan to drop a kernel with compcache and cpu throttling compiled in to make this even faster. Even when 2.x gets built, I'm probably going to keep working on this. It's like a pet project

The only hardware that's not working in this build is the jogball led. It's all a matter of initializing the hardware so it can correctly work.

anyone with the SMS sent issue... i noticed that i WOULDNT be able to send when i have a "1" prepending my number.

so if i texted some one @ 1 555 555 5555, it woudnt work, but 555 555 5555 would work fine. can anyone else test and confirm?

I also noticed i couldnt send if the text message was over 140 chars (more than 1 msg being sent)

That sounds like the most important post in this thread. Thanks. If nobody else reports anything on this, I'll load the ROM up later and try it myself.

I tested this ROM 2 days ago and never used a "1" on sending SMS and it didn't work anyway.

I tried pushing the files GB said we needed to push (via ADB) using the command adb push /(file)/ /system/app/
It just says Error: Read-only access
Can you please tell me what's going on with that?

You will have to remount the system as read/write.

adb shell
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
exit
adb push *path to file* /system/app

Same way as above. Once you're shelled into the device you use standard Linux commands.

Not a problem. Maybe the right pair of eyes will come across it.

Don't want to put Jeremy and company in that situation. Google is very picky about who can distribute their proprietary apps. What's posted here is 100% open source.

Attention. Download and use these files ONLY if you have purchased a Sprint Hero and have license from Google to use their software.

And do not be surprised if this link goes away or the entire post gets deleted.

1. 4shared.com - online file sharing and storage - download CDMA_Hero_Dount_0.1-signed.zip

Wipe your data, flash this and boot your phone. This is the core and open source portion of this ROM. YOU MUST RUN THIS PORTION AT LEAST ONCE BEFORE YOU CONTINUE.

2. Next, download and flash this, WITHOUT wiping data
4shared.com - online file sharing and storage - download CDMA_Hero_1.6_BITS-signed.zip

Reboot, and go through the Google setup.

3. Next download and flash this:
4shared.com - online file sharing and storage - download update-superuser-1.2.0-signed.zip

this gives you a working SuperUser Whitelist. Don't skip this part.

4. Reboot, and plug back in to your computer. Via the shell, run these commands:

adb remount
adb shell
busybox --install /system/xbin
exit
adb reboot

This enables and installs busybox so third party apps that need it can run.

Now stop flooding my inbox and gtalk lol.
