Since Bluetooth is sketchy on the Hero, I figure it would be useful to have a list of peoples' experiences with different devices. If you have a Bluetooth device, please reply with it's manufacturer, name, the exact OS you are using, and how well it works. I'll try to keep this post updated.
Stock 2.1:
* Blueant Interphone (motorcycle helmet bluetooth) -- Works
* Jawbone Icon -- Works for both voice and A2DP
* Parrot CK3100 car kit -- Works for voice and enables voice dial
* Plantronics Voyager Pro -- Works
* 2010 Mazda 3 GT with Bose stereo system -- Works for voice but not A2DP
* Blue Ant T1 -- Does not work properly
Stock 1.5:
* Blueparrott B250-XT -- Works
* Foxl G-2 Bluetooth speaker -- Works
Fresh 2.3.3:
* Blue Ant T1 -- Does not work properly
Just a few questions on flashing a new radio on a Sprint Hero, as I'd like to be sure I won't brick my phone and there really don't seem to be many guides on this.
Are certain radios only compatible with certain ROMs? If so, what do you do if you want to flash a new ROM afterwards? In the event a radio flash fails, can you attempt to flash a different one or is your phone pretty much bricked at that point?
I'll probably have more questions later, as the thought of bricking my new Hero is well, I'd really rather not have to go back to my old BlackBerry.
When you root your hero and load a Rom, is the android market and all the apps still compatible?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI was recently hired to work on mobile Ajax applications. This is the first time I do this, as I always worked on usual Ajax sites on common web browsers. I'd need a framework and possibly a toolkit that works both on IPhone and Android... capable of abstracting the mobile browser the same way jQuery does with desktop browsers. I've seen JQTOUCH, but it seems very much IPhone oriented. I'd like something more cross platform and lighter. Do you have any idea?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI don't know if it was a settings app (Quick Settings by Sergey) from the android market that caused it, but after uninstalling that app (the only other one i use right now is the lock screen widget - which i just uninstalled), i can't turn the mobile network on. i've tried the airplane mode trick, gone into settings, soft reset, etc. any ideas in the manage applications? i'd rather not do another hard reset (had to for the google account). i called htc and they were useless - with no trouble shooting, they recommended a hard reset and to not download apps! btw, i'm on a non-rooted phone.

AndroLib, Find all applications and games available in the Android Market for your Android Phone, HTC Dream, HTC Magic etc... shows that it is out there! I hope this isn't an Android 1.5 thing... Anyone else been able to find it or use it? I am really pumped up about being able to deposit checks by taking a picture of them and instantly having it deposited in account.

But heres the Question: Is there a way to root this hero to unlock the sprint mobile network so that he can text anytime and anywhere the phone is on? Right now he can only do it through wifi.
So I'm guessing you cant talk and go online through the mobile network, I remember reading that in the book and from personal experience. But I remember talking and browsing the web while connected to wifi, but can no longer. Whats up with that?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI just got my Hero from Sprint last week and I love it! But I have one small problem. When my battery drains and the phone shuts itself off (ie powers down). After I charge it up and turn the phone back on I have no service, if I try to go turn my mobile network back on it wont allow me to open the program and it forecloses on itself. The only way I am able to do ANYTHING on the phone or use it is to reset it to factory settings which causes me to lose EVERYTHING!Has anyone had this problem or know of anyway to fix it when this happens?
