Hi, I am seriously considering rooting my Hero, and would like to know some questions... thanks in advance! 1) How fast is it really? REALISTICALLY? Can it rival the iPhone 3GS? iPhone 3G at least? 2) Do apps stored on the SD open/load faster? (I have a 16Gb, class 6 card). 3) Can it work...

Does anyone know if the upcoming Android 2.1 update to the Sprint Hero will allow us to save apps to the SD card without having to root the phone? And also, some things to think about: remember that the Hero only runs class 2 speeds, even if the card is class 6. Do you think this will change...

Is there a way to sync music and also PLAYLISTS onto the Hero? I know I can easily drag-n-drop files onto my Hero's SD card, and also use programs like MediaMonkey or Windows Media Player to sync music, but I can't seem to sync playlists. I have to manually create playlists on the Hero music app...

As we call know, our Hero (at the moment at least) runs Android 1.5. Also, it WILL be getting Eclair, which from what I've heard has native CDMA support? What, doest that mean 1.5 did not have CMDA support? What can we expect from an OS that has native CDMA support? Does it have anything to do...

Before the update, I had a screen similiar to the alarm clock screen - an arc to pull down that would answer the incoming call. But after the udate, I could have sworn there was a different screen. Like instead of that arc-bar, there was a green and red "anwser" and "ignore" buttons. But now its...

I have a lot of lag with the ZOOMING function of the Dolphin browser for my Hero. Whether I use the multitouch pinch-zoom, or the actually zoom buttons on the bottom of the screen, its laggy. Am I doing something wrong? The pinch-zoom is way laggier than the pinch-zoom on the stock browser...

So I used to think that my phone was less laggy too after the update. But I must say, my phone has now returned back to its laggy state, and might be even worse that before. So I wanted to gather some information. How many of you think you're phone is less laggy after the update, and how many...

So I have returned back to the stock Message app for SMS mainly because no other app has a photo next to each message like the stock one does. But I was wondering if there is a way to control how many messages show up in each conversation? Like, say I am having a conversation with Bob. When I...

My phone was updated earlier today, and just now I realized a problem and need some help. If I am connected to wi-fi, and toggle off the wi-fi, it won't enter back into EV. My phone just goes without data network. Help? Is anyone else facing this issue?

Some of my apps on the main apps menu are showing up twice. For example, earlier the Colorix app (game) was showing up twice - one right next to each other - so I just uninstalled it because I thought it was a problem with the app. But now my AK Notepad is doing it, and some other ones. Anyone...

So I've downloaded a few "only works on 1.5" apps from the Market, and we all know that 2.0 Eclair is coming eventually. But when the phone is updated, what will happen to these apps? I personally have lost track o which apps of mine are 1.5 only, and it would suck if my phone messed up after...

So some people are claiming that Eris does some kind of "bounce back effect when scrolling to the very top or bottom of the apps menu. Well I just watched this video about the Eris, and if you skip to 4:20, she scrolls to the botom of the menu, and it just stops. Just like the Hero. Perhaps I'm...

Well, I know its software also, but is it hardware too? Because if not, then I was thinking, couldn't HTC just add it later on if they wanted it to?

I was just looking at this YouTube video of the Europ Hero being rooted for I dont know why reason, just because. And I noticed that they have the "Animation" option checked, but functions differently than our Hero. YouTube - How To - Root Your HTC Hero in One Click (www.TheUnlockr.com) In...

Is there a brightness control widget that works for the Hero? I disabled the auto-brightness because it sucks. But ever brightness widget I see in the Market, a commenter below says it doesnt work on the Hero... and its an automatically back button click after that. So just wondering if anyone...

Just wanted to make sure that the Hero is supposed to be a multitasking device? Because every time I try to multitasking, my phone freaks out. For example, as I was typing this (i am typing this post on my Hero), my green LED started flashing because I got an email. So I pressed home so I...

I swear, sometimes I feel like my phone's vibration is louder than its ringer. When I'm in class or something, I am afraid to leave it on vibrate because its vibrations are very loud. Same thing as in the library. Anyway to soften the vibration?

Does anyone know if there is a way turn off the text flow in the Hero's browser? I hate how when I pinch to zoom, it auto text flows and throws me onto some random place on the site...pretty annoying. I have to then search around for where i on the site I was before I did the pinchzoom

From some of the initial reviews, it is being said that the Eris seems to be faster and less laggier than the Hero. Now that I think about it, Eris doesn;t have all those Sprint apps that the Hero does, like NFL, Nascar, etc. Now that we found a way to remove those Sprint apps, is it possible...

Has anyone had much success installing and running games from the Market on their Hero? Or is the phone too laggy to run games? I browsed through the Market and noticed a lot of what seems like graphically intensive games that I'm sure look awesome and 3d, but might have trouble running on the...

First of all, let me note that the card that comes with the phone is a SanDisk 2gb MicroSD card, NOT MicroSDHC. Check if for yourself if you dont believe me. Now. I ordered a Transcend 16gb Class 6 MicroSDHC card from eBay last week, and i've been playing with it ever since. And let me tell...

So I got Task Panel X for me Hero and i've been trying to play aroudn with it. But ever since I got it, the weather part of HTC's flip clock widget has been messing up. It just shows a blank, no weather. Whenever I turn off the Task Panel X, it stops messing. Does anyone know how to make Task...

How many MB's of RAM are you supposed to have on the Sprint HTC Hero? After a fresh reboot, my phone is at 62 MB of RAM. Then I use the phone for a couple of minutes (check my facebook, check email, check weather, and maybe send an SMS text) and I'm down to 30MB of RAM, which almost never goes...

So ive been experiencing some issues today with the EvDO Rev. A connection on my phone. The icon just dissapeared from my status bar, I couldnt connect to the internet. Eventually I just rebooted it and it came back, but then later lost it again. So I just rebooted it again and regained...

So I used my Hero this morning/afternoon with music, wi-fi, internet browsing, and I used up the first half of the battery. And after that, I have been mostly studying and not using my phone... but the second half of the batter drains, it seems like, FASTER than the first half did! No music...
