2 problems with Fresh 2.3.3 - google maps and voicemail!

Specs on my phone:
Rooted HTC Hero 2.1. Fresh Rom 2.3.3, DarchKernel 2.6.34, OC'd to 768 with SetCPU.

I've got 2 problems!

#1. Google Maps crashes whenever I open it. It'll open the program, attempt to load a map, and then reboot itself straight to the white screen with "HTC" on it. Just once or twice before this started happening, i opened Google Maps and the GPS was off by a half mile or so from my actual position.

#2. Sprint voicemail text messages from 9016. Every time I get a voicemail, the icon works properly on my sprint VVM, but then I get some weird long text from 9016 //ANDROID:$. Anyone know how to eliminate this?

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!!

#1. I would set the OC speed to 710. Many Hero users have issues above this speed.

#2. I have experienced this on ZenEXP ROM, but not on Fresh 2.3.3, so no idea, other than using Handcent for sms, and blacklisting the text from 9016.

Oh man, i finally have the phone working and set up exactly how i want, except this Google Maps crashing. Is there a way to back up apps/settings/screens on Launcher Pro before I do this?

And when you say WIPE everything, what exactly does that mean? I know the Wipe option in recovery, but I never wiped davlik or SD before. THanks for the help!
