I am reletively new to this but have now successfully updated and backed up my hero a few times. I;m not sure whether this problem is due to a ROM upgrade or me just being stupid but i cannot connect to the internet on my orange hero unless im hooked up to my home wireless? when i go to use the internet without wireless on i get the message "web page not available. check to make sure your device has a signal and data connection.reload this web page later. view a cached copy of the web page from google? im assuming its a problem with my settings but dont know how to sort the prob out.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if anyone could offer me some advice on which car stereo to choose. It doesn't look like there are many brands that officially support the HTC Hero's bluetooth functions. I want to be able to make and receive calls from the head unit or, at the very least, patch my phone calls through the car speakers for handsfree use. I would love to hear if anybody has managed to get their Hero working with any particular car stereo brand/model.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI appear to have gotten myself into a bit of a pickle. I recently bought a 3 Mobile HTC Hero and unlocked it successfully. After putting in my Vodafone sim card and starting up the phone, it doesn't seem to be letting me access Vodafone internet. I'm guessing this is because I have the 3 version of the ROM. Is there any way I can download the brand free rom or even just fix this internet problem? This is my first smart phone and I really didn't think this would be a problem. I assumed with android boasting it's open-source-ness that branding wouldn't be an issue.

View 3 Replies View Relatedmost uk networks who say that their plans include unlimited internet allowance actually have a limit of 500mb per month. i am on o2's pay as you go and i get unlimited internet on my phone for each month that i top up �15. i used my laptop to tether my phone's wifi once and ended up wuth a huge bill when i found out that the "unlimited internet" was actually 500mb. if you are listening to internet radio all the time or watching online videos then this 500mb is not enough. so my question is are there any networks who actually do provide unlimited internet allowance for your hero?

My question...are there any other apps from the N1 or other android phones that will work on the Hero?
I'm running Windows 7 on my main PC and netbook - are there any issues with the Hero and Windows 7? i.e. HTC Sync? Really excited and looking forward to getting the phone - still not sure what to do with the N97 - speaking of which are there any REALLY good fm transmitters that work with the Hero for in-car playing?

View 35 Replies View RelatedI finally took the plunge tonight on a whim with the help of Mahalo Cat, Thanks Bro, here is what I did so far, and I will keep adding to the original post as I see fit
My Software build is 2.27.651.6
I had both the Universal Androot and the Rom Manager on my phone already downloaded. I then was chatting with MC and simply hit the Universal Androot and rooted, LOL. Then I checked to see if I had SuperUser and I did. I then open the Rom Manager and had a blank screen for about 15 seconds and then there seemed to be a delay in the response of my phone, but then all came back, I then flashed the ClockWordMod recovery and then gave it superuser permission, then it brought me to a menu screen, where I then proceeded to scroll down to do a Nandroid backup, called it Stock_2.1 with no spaces "Very Important" and then it took about 3 to 4 minutes to do a full back up and then said back up was done. I then hit reboot phone in the menu. So that is it for tonight, I will play with it like this for a bit, then on the weekend I will flash a different ROM for the heck of it and see what that is like.
I dont have push mail in hero configured nor have I ever touched that application. I only use the built in gmail application to send and receive mails. When I installed Taskiller, I noticed that I have this "Mail" process which is always there! if I kill it, after a few minutes, it will come back. So far I cant seem to isolate the problem and I am quite clueless about why this application is there, because it takes about 3 mb of memory.

When i switch my phone on,i get this message.The application calender storage (process com.htc calendar) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again-force close.Also when i am doing something in calendar i get another message saying
The process com. htc calendar has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. Force closure.Hope you can help me. Other than these two issues I love this phone.
I typed in "adb push recovery-RA-heroc-v1.5.2.img /sdcard" for the root process and it says permission denied?
Anyone know an app that will tell me which apps/processes are responsible for the network traffic on my hero. I already have net counter for the overall amount, just looking for an app to track by process.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have been a Blackberry and Windows Mobile user for the last eight years. I am 55% sure that I want to get the Hero but I am not 100% sold. I am also considering the Pre. I know this sounds crazy, but the absolute #1 thing I need is Internet sharing and tethering capability; even more so than a phone itself. I must be able to connect my phone to my laptop, either by usb or bluetooth, and have it working in less than 30 seconds each time. I currently run Ubuntu 9.4 and Windows Vista/XP. My windows mobile phone works with all of these, and quickly.I have searched and searched but have found nothing as to wether the Sprint version is capable of thethering.

View 37 Replies View RelatedI recently purchased an HTC Hero and expected to be able to use it to connect my computer to the internet as I did with my last phone... unfortunately the computer isn't recognizing my phone as a mobile device. I spoke w/ an HTC techy and he said my operating system
(XP - service pack 3) isn't compatible with the phone.
I switched from WM6.1 to HTC Hero. With ActiveSync, my phone can access the Internet through the PC's Internet connection. But I cannot do so with HTC Sync. Can I get my phone access the Internet through the PC connection, without connecting to Wi-Fi or 3G?

View 5 Replies View RelatedA friend of mine has just bought one, and cannot connect to the internet using his SIM card at all. He can receive calls fine but for some reason the mobile internet does not work even though his SIM is enabled for it. His phone does not have Market, but SlideMe, which suggests it is a Malaysian Hero (I think)? I don't know if this is the reason.
I tried my SIM card in his Hero and, again, it will not connect to mobile internet. I checked the settings and under Mobile Network Settings/Access Point Names there is nothing and none of the fields are completed (I never had to set this up on my Hero, it was automatically completed by my SIM Card/Provider once switched on).
Just have a question regarding the HTC Hero. I'm planning to buy an unlocked version of the phone (I current reside in Canada), and I know the 3G will not work. However, I also live near my university campus (with campus-wide wifi). So I'm thinking to get the phone but not get any data plan (so not EDGE) and primarily connect to the internet through wifi. (Until I leave campus anyway) So I know at times I might not be able to connect to the internet. so how would this effect my daily uses for the phone? Such as...
1) Can I update my calendar app with all the details before I leave home and it'll still remember all the events/details without having to connect the internet again?
2) Can I update the weather app, and then it'll remember the info even without the internet?
