no no..this is for hero..the one you posted is for nexus one..

any1 can confirm me that this method work for build 2.73.707.9? im on a dead way to root my Hero.. always stuck in just few steps..

maybe share where are you getting stuck?

im not trying ur method yet.. currently i only successfully create goldcard.. from what i read in ur 1st post.. there are no goldcard required?

hi guys, pardon me this might be a really stupid question.
i rooted my hero on the first day i bought it all the way to the sd card partitioning. i didn't get to use the adb method as it just wouldn't mount. so i used flashrec and ran the rooting and rom flashing via the recovery console.
so here comes the dumb question, did i actually do a wipe or did i do an overlap install over the existing rom?

second question. i use advance task killer. but as time passes by like a day or two the available memory just keeps getting lesser and lesser. i need to reboot the phone to increase the available memory - is this normal or something went wrong from the above process ?

Yes, you have to use the goldcard method. But once you have the goldcard part done, the rest is just the same like my guide I didn't include the goldcard method to protect the user's files.

First of all, welcome to Android world You did it excellently my friend. Flashing a ROM is NOT like installing something. It clears the previous ROM and writes the new one. So you don't have the previous ROM anymore. Tadaa~

Don't use advance task killer. Take my advice and use the best application. Search in market for "TasKiller" and use that. This is what you should do after that:

In the settings, allow autokill (check it). Then, in the list, allow all the applications that you use all the time (phone, home, messaging, clock, etc)
To allow them, long-tap on the application and add to ignore. Once you have done this, go to the home screen. Add the widget which is called "TasKiller". Note that it creates 3 types of widgets. Use the 1x1 widget. Now, on your screen, tap that widget and see what it does. It will even tell you how much memory you have left Now you will not feel the low memory problem anymore.

well it's all thanks to your wonderful tutorial. thanks for the TasKiller - it's wonderful. i will look forward for more android stuffs from you

Not a problem bro..We are the ones who need you..Lets make the Android community larger.. We're very active in the Nexus One topic..Most androiders are hangin out there Come join us~

ok. will do so.

TasKiller FTW!
The other task management apps are mostly crap.

but somehow i feel like the autokill is not working so well. - oh well i could be wrong.

it works everytime your phone goes into sleep mode..but that doesn't really matter to me..I use the widget everytime I start my phone..Its always there and all it needs is a tap and you get all the memory you need

yup everytime my phone comes back from sleep mode the amount of remaining memory the same as before it went to sleep. thats y i'm guessing it's ain't working like it should

i think the programmer will fix the issue. Send him an email and he will definitely respond. I sent him a nexus one issue and he did get back to me

when i try to sync my Hero with my pc (windows 7).. HTC Sync latest update also did not detected by my Hero.. what should i do? im using windows 7 64bit..

regarding active tasks, was wondering if we should keep Wave Secure running at all time...?

good question..i didnt keep it in my safe list though..i'll test if it does its job..but everytime u change the sim, wavesecure will definitely launch so if its lost, i know the job will be done. Because my SIM itself will be blocked and he will have no other choice

Hey dude,

I am experiencing troubles in mobile network. It shows that the mobile 3G network is disconnected when i've switched on the mobile internet. Could you please help me on this issue?

thank you

are ur APN settings accurate? We need more details. Just stating 3G is disconnected will not help..
