Sprint HTC Hero – Re-Rooted and Re-Flashed with Apps2SD

Finally took the time to redo what I did wrong the first time around. I realized that I never properly got Apps2sd working. So I was running out of space on my phone and it was getting bogged down a lot because it didn’t have available memory to run smoothly.
This was my main source of help on the rooting
Here’s the basic run down to get a sure thing:
- Make sure phone is not plugged into USB
- Turn off phone
- Turn on phone in recovery (Hold Power + Home at same time)
- Phone loads with simple green menu
- Go to Wipe >
* wipe data/factory reset
* wipe dalvik-cache
* wipe sd:ext partition
* wipe battery stats
* wipe rotate settings
(important for things to load right, especially if you had a custom ROM before) - Go to Partition > Partition SD card (Swap = 0, Ext = 512MB, FAT32 = Remaining)
- Plug phone into computer via USB cable
- Go to USB-MS Toggle > Enable
- On PC: Drag your ROM .zip file on to SD card *
- On PC: If you want Live Wallpapers – drag that file on to SD card as well **
- On Phone: Disable USB
- Flash .zip from SD
- Reboot phone
- Before you do anything else – Press Menu > Settings > Manage Applications > HTC Sense > Clear Data (This gets the clock to show up on the home screen)
- Go to town on downloading apps and happiness
* Find a ROM that automatically enables Apps2sd if the SD card is partitioned.
* I use DamageControl 2.09.01 – Stable and fast 2.1 rom, especially when running apps from the SD card
