New ROM is working fine on my phone. Ended up doing a wipe and then installing it. May not have needed to do that if I had justed waited longer for the phone to finish booting after the first install. It was stuck on the HTC logo so I pulled the battery. Wiped, re-installed, and just about everything seems to be working so far. Pretty slick. It's like getting a new phone all over again. Battery life is sucking today, but that is only because I haven't stopped playing with the phone yet.

This could be my problem... I pulled the battery the first time and didnt wipe and reinstall. I'll try tonight and hopefully it fixes the few minor things.

btw I love this rom besides what i mentioned so far. Everything is super smooth and quick.

I have a real strange problem since I flashed this firmware. If someone calls me from an unknown number my phone always displays one contact in particular. Doesn't matter what the unkown callers number is, it will just display his name and picture by default.

Any ideas?
BTW I haven't used or turned on Facebook Sync



I know you said you aren't using Facebook Sync, but did you check the sync area I mentioned in my post above? I was having the exact same problem (mine was facebook related). Might want to double check what is syncing your contacts to.


Other than that, keep reading the XDA forums. The answer is probably out there.

So the only problems I have been having are with my phone vibrate function.B

1. Haptic feedback will still not shut off no matter what I try.
2. Handcent will not vibrate on txt receive in any mode.

Just figured out how to turn of haptic feedback...

Settings-language & keyboard-touch input-text input-vibrate when typing.

I hope this solves your problem! I know I was excited when I finally found it!

Tried it for a couple days, but was having issues with ringtones, contacts, and so forth. Decided to do a Nandroid restore back to to Fresh1.1.

I loved the way everything worked, how fast it ran, and the battery life. Just need to work out the final bugs and it'll be perfect. For now, I'll go back to what works best for me.


As a donator from the start, I am very thankful for Flipz. He does great work.

I'm holding off til the official Sprint release gets out... then a full blown Fresh will be available

it certainly looks like Damageless' ROM (which is based off Fresh) will be as fully functional as is possible by the end of the day, minus the Sprint apps....should be pretty sweet.

It's going to be really damn awesome when 2.1 does finally come out, and we actually get everything that's built for the Hero. I mean, Fresh 2.0b is already insanely fast, just imagine what they can do by optimizing something already made specifically for our phone lol (and yes, I know the Eris is damn close to our phone)
