hi all,
I'm from singapore and recently have bought a htc hero. I wanted to load modaco's rom but failed. this is what i have experienced.i tried the guide on adb commands but it gave me the error "remote: failed". subsequently i try the flashrec guide but the flashrec gave me invalid error.
Can someone help?
There are my phone details:

one assumes that you have already rooted your HTC Hero ?
If not then follow this
http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/27/how-to-root-your-htc-hero-in-one-click/
once that is done then follow this
http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/27/how-to-load-a-custom-rom-on-your-htc-hero/
This worked like a charm for me so I assume that it should work for you as well
Hope this helps

hi, i havent root my hero. i followed the guide and could not load Amon Ra’s Hero Recovery Image into my phone. there's error
Since you are in Asia you likely have the 2.73.707.9 ROM you can check this under Settings/About Phone. Please see this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=563256
there is no way to gain root and flash ROMs onto this release at this time

Where, China? I've heard it called the G2 by virtue of T-Mobile branding it the G2 Touch, but never the G3!

I have this model also, just wondering when we are able to root the hero and install different roms will it enable different android market? I'm in the US and am lacking apps that should be present e.g Pandora, ebuddy etc.
I was wondering if this way of force updating would work?
download the official rom version 1.76.405.x firmware (not rooted),
boot up the unit using home+power (to boot into recovery);
extract the official rom's rom.zip and rename into update.zip
put that update.zip into sdcard's root
on the device, apply the update in the recovery.
?

try it, but i doubt it will work because it will check the CID in the rom.zip(or renamed to update.zip) file and that ROM does not contain CID's needed for most phones.

uhm, could be, or it doesn't like the rom.zip (altough renamed to update.zip) zip file, which makes sence as we can create update.zip files and sign them ourselfs (stuff that for example paul (modaco) does) i need more playing time myself, but you can try and creating a new zip with the contents of the rom.zip and sign it, then look if that works....but i'm doubtful
funny thing is, i've downloaded the signed rom from modaco, (they are signed, as far as i can be told by the file name), and tried to flash it again using the same method:
log:

does renaming a file affect the signature?

no, but the type of signing is the problem, the update.zip (with cert/sign files inside the zip) is a different kind then doing an edit on the physical zip file and changing (signing) and thats whats being checked and we currently can't duplicate (or re-sign a changed rom.zip)
I found a solution after being told it was not possible.
The Brown Hero I purchased was also an Asian version and had no Market.
I was so scared and frustrated at first because everyone said there was no solution.
But I found one!
*1. Download Linda file manager from here and install since you don't have the market! (I had a copy already on my sdcard) goto Settings, Applications, and make sure Unknown source is checked ON.
*2. On your phone, goto Settings, SD card and phone storage, and click Unmount SD card.
*3. Then click Format SD card (it should automatically remount after this)
*4. Plug the phone into the compuer via USB, then pull down the notification bar and click on the SD card notification. Then click mount.
*5 Download the Flashrec apk from this link: http://zenthought.org/system/files/asset/2/flashrec-1.1.2-20090909.apk and install using Linda File manager.
*6. Download Amon_RA_Herov1.2.2 Recovery image and place on root of sdcard
*7. Open the FlashRec program and click on Backup Recovery Image and wait for it to finish.
*8. Once done, click on the empty text box in the FlashRec program and type
/sdcard/Recovery-RA-HERO-v1.2.2.img
Then click on the Flash Custom RecoveryImage button and wait for it to finish.
*9. Turn off the phone and turn it on into Recovery mode by holding down Home and Power to turn it on (keep holding until the recovery screen comes up has a bunch of text on a black background). So long as that screen comes up, you have done it correctly and now you can load this rom which is HTC Generic 2.73.405.5
It's also referred to as Modaco version 2.2, it's what I'm currently using.
*10. Place that rom on the root of you're sdcard and use option Apply sdcard: choose zip option and flash! Once done reboot and you're all set and will have The Android Market and all the goodness that rooting provides!
Hope this helps!
You had the same ROM version as mentioned in the original post? ^^

My version was a little different but it was an Asian version and did not come with the Android Market installed and had SlideMe market instead.
Here is a screen shot:
i have tried the method u suggested but to no avail. ya, your version of hero is slightly different from mine.

how to solve this problem?
The error tells you what file failed the MD5 check.

what does that mean? how to solve the problem?
First thing would be to download the zip again and try once more

You are not stock. You changed a font or something.
If you are not completely bone stock, NOTHING customized, not build.prop, not font, nothing, the update will go through.
yes I changed the font. I do not remember the default font and I can't change it back to default. what should I do?
I think Roboto is default for ICS 4.0. if not, can anybody tell me the name for default font for this phone.
Yes it is roboto. I'm not sure if you can just apply the font or not. I remember adryalyne posting somewhere that the md5 is changed permanently and even if you put the stock fonts back it still won't work. Correct me if I'm wrong.
My advice is to flash the stock 4.0.4 image in fastboot. There are here: http://code.google.com/android/nexus/images.html
You need to adb delete and then adb push the correct unmodified versions of any files listed from stock 4.0.2 to your phone, the update will then work as normal. They just failed the checksum.
I had the same problem with my modified launcher2.

is there a way to back up all installed app then put them all back without reinstall? also I have lot of text.
that is why I want to update but not wipe all.

Hi All,
I have create template to be used with DSIXDA kitchen. Hopefully you will find it useful.
Just rename the file to endeavoru and then place the file in tools\edify_defs and use all the kitchen power without manual editing

You don't need to do anything, just let the kitchen build the update-script, convert it to updater-script + its binary during ROM building.

So just remove the extension and we can build a working rom for HTC One X?
Since it says no ROM support on the kitchen page.
Thx for your effort!
Yes you are right
Rom wont flash for some reason - getting status 0 error. Kitchin faq says thats from having update instead of updater script, but i do have updater and binary. Any ideas?

When building the rom you have to choose Edify or updater script.

Yeah I know, I did that, the problem was the file extension was left on the file, strange I deleted it, but set the extensions to visable in windows and there it was still on there.
So all sorted. Thanks.

so i oppened the original updater to check and i see some diferences ...
kitchen converted updater
Code:
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p12");
original updater
Code:
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p12", "0");
i removed the 0 like we talked in previous post, and chaged that line to the same as original updater and now it works
so its supposed to be a kitchen bug ?
the strange thing is that in previous users are reporting sucessefull cooking and flashing ... so why my kitchen isnt converting properly to updater script ?
i got the last kitchen 0.202 and the enderarvou file in place..
i already tryed to change update-binary in /update_files/ but its the same
now .. i know i can change mannualy the updater script before building the rom .. but i want to make it work like its supposed to work ...
can be my system configuration ? OS / cygwin / java ?
thanks
Ok!
Problem solved thanks to "backfromthestorm" hint!!
The problem is the Kitchen update to updater conversion.
The kitchen doesnt make correctly the conversion.
So the solution is:
not give any script to kitchen for conversion, remove META-INF folder from original zip and let kitchen create a fresh updater..
Hello
I keep getting an error ( status 0 ) even after edifying it . I chose edify in the kitchen and while flashing i get the error . Any help please what to do ?
Maybe the problem is when making the rom because it says signing update.zip . Any idea anyone ??

You will have to either replace those apps back in system/apps or you can use the factory image to flash it back to stock. You might not need to flash the whole factory image if all that was modified was in the /system directory. All you would have to do is
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
Same problem

You have to flash the stock image to go back to stock. Then you can use adb sideload to update.

Hi Baxxxtor
Did you unroot your phone ? Or changing the file system of the SD card was enough ?

Did you unroot your phone ? Or changing the file system of the SD card was enough ?
Thx

Hi,
i flash B118 or B125 with and without root. Its no problem..
You only have to root your device again after flash.
I flashed without root to B125. So root is not needed
