HTC Hero :: How To Unroot Hero?
Jun 21, 2010
I rooted my phone a while back and have been having fun installing custom roms.But now i want to try the new update.So I reverted back to my first nandroid back up. And tried to install the pre update package (4mb). I get the Update OTA. I restarts and goes to the Android install screen (I don't know if that's the right name for it, it's the screen that you access after holding home on start up).Do you think this is because the phone is still rooted?Does anyone know how to fix this?

My mom will soon be getting my phone since I will be buying new when they one day releases the dual-core phones. I also have some sound problems when calling so I thought it would be easiest just to unroot the phone. So my question is: What is the easiest way to get from rooted to stock 2.1 ROM.

I'm running fresh 2.1.1 and lately its been really buggy and I think I'm tired of having to deal with updating to the newest roms and dealing with bugs and glitches and I just want to go back to the stock firmware. What is the best way to do this? If my phone originally had 1.5 on it do I have to go back to that before I can update to the newest official firmware release?

How easy is it to unroot a phone after trying a custom ROM? One of the advantages to the plan I've got is free insurance on the phone, but rooting it will, of course, void that.

So I have issue with my phone, no one can hear me on phone calls. Unfortunately I need to return the phone to stock so I can take it into the store for warranty. So if I just run the 2.1 official, will that take care of it? Or should I use some other method to do it. Also, I see the update is an EXE, is that gonna give me troubles since I have a linux PC?

I need to unroot a sprint hero to the original stock but I don't know how the phones was given to me with the leaked 2.1 sprint RUU. I am willing to learn to do it if someone can just show me how cause I saw all the forums and no such luck finding anything relevant to what I am looking for.

I have (UNFORTUNATELY) an Orange branded/locked HTC Hero running the oh-so-old Android 1.5 ROM....what would happen if I tried updating it with the Sprint 2.1 ROM (if this is possible).If it's not possible / will brick my phone, does anyone have any idea when Orange will release the update (not even had the fabled pre-update update which the rest of Europe seem to have had or about to).As an aside, I will NEVER buy an HTC phone again after this s*** is over with. They may wonder why people want iPhones....Apple promise the iOS4 update...they deliver, on time with no malarkey about supposed different carrier versions. Counting the months till I'm out of contract and can sack off my HTC Hero.

If you take a look at this post on gizmodo: Sprint Hero Review: Faster, Stronger, Uglier - Sprint htc hero review - Gizmodo.it claims that the sprint hero works better in low light than the GSM hero. Why is the GSM hero so much worse in low light?

Yesterday i found a HTC Hero lying around at the office, i asked by boss about it and he said that i could have it if i got i working.The problem is that when u turn it on, u will only see the "Hero logo" and get a small vibrator beep.This is anoying since the phone cant make a USB connection to my computer, so i cant use any official HTC flashing software, im therefore kinda limitet to placing files on the sdcard.

I slowly getting more disappointed with this phone. When you plug in standard headphones without a mic, you get mono output and not stereo.The Hero's 3.5mm plug is Mono not Stereo

I have the Modaco latest ROM. Its been perfectly fine since I installed it over a month ago, but recently my memory card corrupted and now I cannot download any apps off the market.I had an ext2 partition, so I reformatted my memory stick the exact same way it was before it corrupted. Even so, whenever I try to download items from the market they just get stuck on "Starting Download".I literally cannot download ANY apps

I just go hero and I went to the Pop3 setting and started to insert my microsoft pop3 account setting in the fields as prompted. The password was not correct so it would not pull in my emails.I can't seem to find out how to go back into my pop3 settings since the HTC Hero email application will not let me view my previous settings to make changes.There must be a way, I am just not seeing it.Please help me with the correct procedure.It tells me to select my email account from the drop down screen in my created email account, so, I select the email address that it shows that I created.

I hate the lock screen on the Hero, I know their is a way to turn it off, but i don't like getting a message and then the phone doing something in my pocket. Is their a way to extract the .apk of the lock screen from the droid, and just install it on the hero, I understand that the resolution on the hero is different, but hate the current lock screen, i have to slide it down 2-3 times for it to recognize. I downloaded lock 2.0 already on the market, its not bad. but it takes 3-4 seconds on my phone to actually give me the slide to unlock screen.

I dont know what "underclocked" means, but nonetheless the Droid's processing is a bit higher than the Hero's. And also,I know that the Arm Cortex A8 is a better processor than the Qualcomm's in the first place anyways.So, looking at those specs, is the Droid's processing power really that much more superior than the Hero's? Basically, I'm trying to get an idea of how much of the Droid's better performance is due to its processing power as opposed to its higher (and more efficiently coded, im assuming) Eclair OS.

I recently installed the new security patch that came out around the release of the EVO because I was unaware of what it entailed. However this battery life problem has become sickening and I would really love to root my phone and get rid of all this sprint trash on my phone.

I once had a samsung jet which was great but it was on orange and i wanted it on 3 because i recieved a better signal and wanted their push email. But when i put my three sim into my now unlocked Jet i found that i lacked 3's certificates and couldn't tether or get 3's push email.Anyway this made me decide to upgrade to a 3 hero to gain their functions however it seems their are no "certificate" needed and the hero seems to have its own push email service and can tether easily.SO my question is if i debrand my hero and thus can ugrade to 2.1 android will i still recieve free push email and be able to tether? as i guess if i change my rom it might be hard to go back.

So I've been looking at some videos on YouTube of the new HTC Desire and Legends. I've been paying attention mostly to the Legend, because it was more similiar specs to the Hero than the Desire does. I've noticed that the new Sense seems to run very smoothly on the Legend with its 600MHz processor. Now, we all know that the Hero can be quite laggy at times, and we all want some performance increase from the update. But how much better really is the 600MHz processor than the Hero's 529MHz? Are the videos of the Legend a good portrayal of how Sense will perform on our Hero's?

Is there an application I could use to record both sides of a phone conversation with an HTC Hero? I don't have one yet (currently a blackberry user) but if one is available I'd be willing to make the switch. I'm a medical writer and need to record interviews and since I'm going to be on the road a lot in the near future, don't have access to landlines and the ability to use a conventional tape recorder.

I haven't been able to figure out how to change the google account I originally activated my hero with. The reason i want to change it is because my gmail app only opens email from that account, and I used a new gmail account to register my phone with that was specifically for my contacts, and now i cant check my other gmail accounts email. anyone know a good solution without having to format?
