HTC Hero :: Any Way To Update Build Without Connecting It To Computer?
Feb 6, 2010
Im new to this forum and have a few questions. I have a HTC hero android g3 a6262 gsm unlocked. Im wondering if there are any updates for it? I dont want to root it yet since i dont have much time to research that stuff yet. I read that orange and sprint have updates? Are those just build updates? Is mine the euro version?
HTC - Support - HTC Hero - Software Download
Correct me if im wrong but there are no firmware updates, but there are build updates? nd is there any way to update the build without connecting it to a computer since i dont have the usb cord?

I currently have firmware 1.5. How do I update without a M$ Windows based computer?
When I try to update with the phone it states that no updates are available.

i got an S3.. and my computer has xp pro. i had to restore my computer recently from a saved image of my system. before i restored my computer, i was able to connect my S3 to it via USB with no problem. but after i restored it, i'm unable to.
i downloaded and installed the MTP driver, which got my computer to recognize my phone before i restore it. but now its not working and i dont see it listed in Device Manager. whats weird is that when i connect my S3 to my computer, the phone doesnt give any notifications that the phone is connected to USB like it used to before. and it also doesnt give me the 2 options of connecting by either MTP or Camera. all it does is charge my phone.

I have been pulling my hair trying to read forums and find the correct solution to my issue. Whenever I connect to the computer whether its on "charger only", "disk drive", or whatever, it still doesn't allow me to access my SD card.I've tried the following:
1. uninstalling doubletwist
2. connecting, going back from charger only to disk drive.
3. ejecting the removable hardware and switching from charger only to disk drive and still nothing.
If anyone can help me, I would greatly appreciate this.

When I plug my phone into my computer via USB, nothing happens. I don't get a notification although the phone charges which means it is plugged in. But as I said no notification so I can transfer things between my computer and my phone. Any ideas anyone? I'm running 2.1 V2 and this just happened as of today. It was working fine yesterday.

So while I am fairly good with computers, I am pretty new to android phones. I have been trying for a few hours now to connect my phone (Galaxy S2 d710) to my computer to use in QPST and similar programs. The only way that I have been able to get it to connect in modem mode (not usb modem tethering, that is) is to turn my phone off and boot to the Odin flash page thing. Problem is, Odin is the only application that can communicate with my phone when it is like this. I have found several guides on how to change the usb settings temporarily to a modem connection, but all of the numbers and codes it tells me to type in either don't work, crash, or go to a blank page.
Just realized that I should probably note that I am rooted and running cyanogenmod.

I have no idea where to go to get these (probably routine, simple) questions asked. Thanks for answers/links. I just purchased my phone and I'm really excited. And nervous, is that weird? 1. I have a MacBook Pro w/ my music on itunes, although I didn't buy any of it through them. Is there any issue with connecting my new phone to my computer and getting my music stuff on it? Is it easy or do I need to read about how to do it from somewhere? FWIW, easy to me = drag and drop, or have it automatically transfer.
1a. I am hoping to replace my ipod touch with this device. Realistic? Or silly dream?
2. What should I do to the phone when I first get it? Are there things Verizon includes that I should delete (like when you first buy a computer and it's preloaded w/ a ton of crap)? Are there things I need to immediately get?
2b. I assume those things I need to immediately get are apps. Can I browse them now w/out the phone or can I only do it from the phone? What are the "must haves"? Is there a website that lists the most popular/useful apps?
3. Is there a good tutorial for how to get the most out of Android? Or do I just monkey around and see what I like/dislike?
4. Should I root this thing? Not quire sure what that means, but it seems to be what the cool kids do.
4b. Other than paying for the teething thing from VZW, is rooting the only way to get that ability?

Is there a way to check the contents of the SD card in the Incredible without connecting to a computer? All I can find is how big the SD card is and how much room is left on the card. But like I said, I cant find a way to see what files are on it.

After updating to Froyo, I can no longer connect to my home WiFi. anyone else having a similar issue? I've tried re-entering my WEP key with no luck. I know my WiFi is working, I took Froyo on it and my wife's Evo that hasn't been updated to Froyo connects fine.

If you have received the 2.1 OTA from Verizon, can you tell us your baseband version, kernel, build #, and software #.
Just to compare those to the 2.1v3 leak to see if they're the same.

I have an unlocked HTC Hero that I got off ebay. It is the Telus gsm version, but it has hero rom build 2.73.661 which I can find no info on anywhere. The latest build on htc site is 2.73.405 but it says my s/n cannot use that one. Anybody know where this build came from?? Or what this means when android 2.1 is released, where do I get my rom..?

When my wifi scans on my HTC hero my router is not picked up (even though im sitting right next to it). I also tried adding it myself and when I had completed that it just says "not in range, remembered" or something.

I seem to have a problem when trying to connect the Hero to the Internet via Wi-Fi.
It seems to take an age to connect sometimes up to a minute to make connection. Wheras if connect via 3G etc it connects via automatically.
I am using the Wi-Fi widget to connect & disconnect if that makes any difference.
This is also NOT just happening at home but at other locations where I have connected via Wi-Fi before.
These are all secured connections that I am trying to make.
In contrast my wife has an N1 & this connects to the Wi-Fi at home virtually instantly.

Hero users should do is check that you have the latest Rom Build. I read on the HTC website that for my Unlocked GSM Hero I should have 2.73.xxx.x. My phone says I have 2.3, I think (It actually says, "MoDaCo Custom ROM 2.3 Core"). What steps do I take to update my ROM build?
Part 2 of this question: My phone is running on 1.5, and I've heard people saying that 2.1 is now widely available for the non-Sprint Hero, and being "pushed" in most parts of the world. (I purchased my phone in the states, and brought to Israel this week where I'm now using it.) I don't have any particular service for it other than regular cellphone service with a Cellcom SIM card. Is there a way I can actively download the 2.1 to my phone, or do I just have to "wait"?

I just updated to the Froyo via the OTA and now when I plug my Dinc in to be charged (while it is on), I get the following message:
"The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer. Ignore or Eject."
I never had this message until the update.

I want to connect to internet through Connectify (2.1.1) but I can not, Hero is always just obtain address, but never connects.
Do I have to do anything with advanced settings on hero, or enything else?

I am having real problems getting my hero to connect to vodafone internet. Vodafone have twice sent settings but my phone hasnt received them. I have tried some different APN settings that I found on the internet, but without success. Since the update I can't seem to find where you can check that the phone is enabled for 3g.

I have just installed HTC Sync 2.0.18 on both my computers and none of them will recognize my phone when I connect it. One of the computers is a Dell Inspiron 9400 running Vista and the other is a MacBook Pro running Windows 7 under VMWare Fusion 3.0.2.HTC Sync 2.0.18 should work in Windows 7 and definitely under Vista so I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. On both computers I'm running AVG Antivirus 9.0 Free, on which I disabled resident shield during installations, as recommended.
