quick question about the cdma hero - Hero, G2 Touch Android Development

i hate to start a new thread for something like this but i have spent hours searching through the forums and cant seem to find it...
i have a CDMA hero and am looking to get a vanilla rom running on it... i dont care if it is 1.5 or 1.6...
i have found some solutions for it but they all seem to be GSM versions...
i personally hate what HTC did to the Browser, Music, contacts, and picture apps.... i also dislike the sense ui in general.... but i LOVE the hardware.
any help is greatly appriciated...
thanks in advance!

Check out the blow thread. It should point you in the right direction. Correct me if I am wrong (and I know someone will) but the Sprint Hero (CDMA) does not have a custom rom for it yet. I am working to get a nandroid image over to Modaco to develop a CDMA rom. Anyhow, read through that and it should clear some stuff up.

If you go to settings then applications then management scroll down till you hit senseUI. click on it then clear default and once you hit the home button selects Home and set as default then you have standard home.
Use something like taskiller to kill senseUI and all the widgets

Just change the keyboard setting in advanced config or under HTC Custome if you have it, select Cingular for ATT & Cignular or you lang if dif. I think this is like the 100th time this has been asked. Doesn't anyone use search?
Thanks Scrambler001, i am glad someone asked it, i am a newbie i tried a search, before asking but you was kind enough to still answer that other person. I have to sneak around work to use the cpu really so i never have a chance to actually sit and read. Thanks again, fixed...
i checked in the advanced config app, the only choice for keyboard layout is "english", still the same results. I dont have any HTC Customize apps or settings on my device either.

Well then just install HTC Custome if you need to. I thought all the options were available in Schaps rom though you might need to scroll up or down to find the Cingular one if thats what your looking for. Thats what I did when I installed his ROM.

This always works for me. Hope it helps.
I"m just wondering, did no one bother to look in the Schapp's 4.0 thread. I think it was asked about four times in there

You bet I even posted the answer there a few times already but the starter of this thread probably didn't go through the whole thread or search using a good key word like "keyboard" or some such. I think the total is more than 4 though and if you count the number of times it's been asked out of the thread well I run out of fingers and toes so go figure. LOL

[REQ] Is there any way of removing Win Start button?

Is there some way of removing the WinMo Start button, or perhaps using a blank icon so that it's invisible? Purely aesthetic change, as I never use it, thanks to TF3D.
Of course, the question I really want to ask is "Is there any way of integrating top & bottom WinMo bars into TF3D?", but that sounds a little involved, and, well... cheeky.
Thanks to all for much hard work with ROMs and apps on this ridiculously popular new device (I bet the forums have never been so active!).
try this thread...
I haven't tested it, but they are talking about changing the Start icon... Maybe you will find your answer there...??

I hear ya on the search... I stupidly only searched the Diamond forums... I should know better. Thanks for doing by work for me...

iPhone Theme with cyanogen 4.0.4

I know its probably a sin to talk about this, however... Has anyone come up with a bootable theme (meaning not with a 3rd party program ie: ahome, open home etc.)
I LOVE LOVE androids functionality and the Cyanogenmod rom layout, however I love the layout and design of the iPhones face.
Is anyone interested or even thinking about wanting to do something like this? If not i understand (as I said its probably a sin to talk about let alone do)
I just think it would be the best of both worlds... I love androids layout design too, dont get me wrong, just a simple question... (please don't flame)
I'm actually in the process of learning to do themes and what not so i'm hoping if this hasn't been done yet, to put out the first and it will obviously be on the "LOVE IT" / "HATE IT" scale where it will be a hit or miss.
anyways thanks for reading and again (don't flame me, this was a question for those who were thinking it and didn't necisarily say it due to people flaming over it )

I think one of the best ways to achieve the iphone look you're going for without having to go thru the trouble of making a whole new theme is just installing better cut, and then just bring your icons to the home screen and using one of the icon packs, such as tenious icon pack, to give that iphone look. Hope that helps. Just a suggestion

Hey, thanks for your input (and not flaming )
That's a great idea and i've seen it done, however putting all those programs onto the phone really lags the g1 down...unfortunatly Cyan's rom is fast but start packing on the programs and it boggs a great rom down lol.
What i'm trying to accomplish is the entire "feel" if you will of the iPhone;
When you click on "Phone" you will see Favorites, Contacts, Dialer, and Voicemail all at the bottom like the iphone,
also when you click on lets say Alarm clock, you will see the layout of the iphones alarm clock setup.
also the browser setup... androids browser is great functionally however, the layout of the iPhones is much cleaner.
So hopefully if it CAN be accomplished I would like to change all of these things to fit the android with the iphone "feel" almost as if you were using the actual phone itself with a few android goodies

No nothing out there right now with that much customized. I dont think some of the things you mentioned are easy at all to pull off, but Id have to assume if anyone could, it would be the devs here at XDA.
It would be much more than just a theme. All of the things you mentioned would require replacement apps.

As a theme maker I can tell you that what you're talking about (replicating phone/browser/alarm clock layouts) is not an easy task without having to edit the actual code of the apps. This is more of a developer territory, you'd be recreating a new app basically. So...no on what you want to do. You can however use one of many iphone skins available on home replacement apps out there.

Hi. Welcome to XDA When I first signed up to xda I had no idea what I was looking for or what I even wanted to do to my phone. Being familiar to the whole forum edict rather than asking questions that have already been answered a million times over I noticed the handy dandy search function.
An example: Regarding you above question I searched, "rhodium custom sms tones for contacts" and was quickly presented with:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407933
I have no personal experience with this program but I imagine that you are not the first person to request such a thing so there are probably plenty of options out there Youtube is also a good reference source since you can search your phone and see custom things people have done to it. Check out the rom section for an all over makeover for you phone.
Xda's database is intimidating to say the least but sorting through what you need is pretty simplistic Good luck pimping you phone

[Q] help me

hello i am very new to this forum but i have heard xda is the place for anything cell phones.
i just recently got a tp2 and my carrier is sprint.
what must i do to my phone to get the most out of it? and is there a way to run att's tilt on my tp2?
thank you
Hello and welcome
Fist thing is to read, search and learn.
Now regarding your post...It's a little confusing
You have Sprint, right? CDMA Service
You got a TP2, right? GSM required
You want to turn your TP2 into a Tiltl II? Got me there
i saw att's tilt and the main screen i thought was a lot cleaner, meaning less **** on it. clock and calendar. any way i can customize it so i only have that. i want to be able to see more than 1 event at a time.

There you go...so, you want the Tilt2 screen on your phone?
Have you visited the TP2 section and looked at the custom ROM (the operational system)?
I will advice you to do so. Read "everything" and don't skip a single step.
Go here and read the Noob guide to flashing
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=490
After that look at the various programs available for your phone.
Last question....do you have Sprint?
yes i have sprint?
and thank you i will go do that right now.

Like I said....read everything. If I'm nor mistaken...your phone is CDMA and has a gsm card, right?
yes it does. i looked through the forum and found alot of roms but with the roms i need the function of a windows phone for work but i want to be able to see more than just one event on my calendar at a time on the home screen

Try NRG's Co0kie.23XXX or DotComp Deepshinig. By using CHT you'll be able to edit the amount of events.
The look on the ATT Tilt2 is not really specific to ATT. Only thing specific to ATT is the ugly blue theme and wallpaper.
The HTC homepage interface is Sense, and 2.5 is the latest and prettiest. Find a custom ROM you like which includes Sense 2.5 and the Cookie Home Tab (a user made mod), and customize away.
