So far, actually buying one is the biggest issue. There's been discussion both here at XDA:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=580418

and on some other forums, such as:

http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?threadid=1585687

About buying it. Apparently both Best Buy and Walmart in Canada have them, but only sell them in the store and won't ship them. (Best Buy's is on their website, but Walmart's doesn't seem to be).

I'm an AT&T subscriber that's been keeping an eye out for a way to buy a Telus HTC Hero. If I lived close to Canada, I'd drive up and get one, but I live in Georgia, so it's a bit far. I hope somebody finds a place online or something.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] ranphi:
I'd be careful about believing the Telus CSR info that the phone is unlocked. Somebody posted on Boy Genius Report that they bought one and the phone IS locked.

See user "k386" comment here:

[Hero, G2 Touch General] eviltuna:
I just bought a Telus Hero from Best Buy today, and I can tell you that the phones are LOCKED. Bought a code off a website and unlocked it, it is now usable on Rogers, but I'm with bell, so I will have to get a Bell Sim tomorrow.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] tsekh501:
Can you please let me know where did you buy the unlock code and how much did you pay for it? Thanks.

they don't know how to unlock telus hero. dont waste ur time.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] profets:
thanks for the heads up
[Hero, G2 Touch General] rafynet:
I just got my brand new Hero from Telus at square one.

I then put my Rogers sim card in.

I unlocked it successfully through mobileincanada.com it took 10 minutes to receive the unlock code.

Everything is working great so far. Except for wifi ... having issues connecting to any hot spots? it may be just weak signal or something ... will do some more investigating.

btw. My old phone was the HTC HERMES (I loved it for many years) but it's time to move on :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] quicksite:
Hey all right! Congratulations!

So, just checking: You live in Canada, right? You didn't drive there from USA, right?

I'm just looking at this from afar. So that mall has a main Telus store and a satellite store. For the smaller store, I see that the store mgr or seller provides a non-telus email address. So, for those who want this phone, i don't guess you'd think he'd sell & ship them, right?

Because what were the requirements to buy the phone? I'm just curious since so many people in US are trying to find a source where to buy these phones from.

How much did mobileincanada charge to unlock? And would they be a possible source for buying telus phones, and re-selling & shipping, at a markup, to USA?

This is how I feel about my T-mobile Wing... My unlocked Europe/GSM version of the Hero arrives tomorrow. I wanted the brown color :) Then I should just have to call up t-mobile's data group and get the settings to use it, with my swapped out sim card, right? (I know, i know, i won't get 3G. That's okay with me. there are many tradeoffs)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Gochris:
You don't need to meet any requirements to buy the phone outright. Other than having the cash to do so :)

I've bought 3 this week for USA members to ship to them. Was no biggie.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] quicksite:
That's cool! FYI, if it seems worth your time to buy, sell, & ship, with a markup to make it worth your while, to others, there are folks over at HowardForums who also want this phone badly :)

http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?threadid=1585687

EDIT: hah hah - I just saw you came here from there! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Gochris:
Yes that's who I'm doing it for :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] tsekh501:
I am waiting mine to arrive (my friend in Canada bought and shipped it to me).

Just now I went to HTC Canada's website and looked at the spec again:

Dual mode UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA (900/2100MHz for

EU/Asia, 850/1900 for US and 850/2100 for Telstra)

It's funny how they list 850/1900 for US on HTC Canada's website, as if the phone was designed to work in the US. They could have put it much better by saying "850/1900 for Telus"... Only AT&T uses 850/1900 here in the US, and NO I don't think AT&T is carrying any Android device in the near future.

It's like "Hey, friends across the borders. I am sorry for making the Hero exclusively on CDMA networks in your country, but you know what, here is something that you may like."

Hi everyone,

Initially, I'm French, so sorry for my English :D

I've bought my HTC Touch Diamond 2 with the official SFR ROM, it's a Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM.

Today, on the HTC website support page http://www.htc.com/fr/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=249&cat=2&dl_id=733 , I saw the official update. But when I'm trying to make my serial number in the box, I've a message who says that the download is not adapted for my device, I understand this, because I suppose to wait the official SFR ROM, but I'm fed up waiting...

So I've found a "magic" serial code to download the file :D, but I know if I want to install this ROM, I'm require to Hard-SPL my HTC TD2.

I'm ready for that, but I'm asking you a question : If I install this ROM, the configurations are they the same as the old SFR ROM ? I've to configure my phone ?

When I'm install a ROM, is it necessarily to install radio ROM ?

Thanx for your help ! :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Lapeno:
read this clearly http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=520312

if you flash make sure make a backup because all data will be removed

you flash stock rom right? if so it will automaticcly install new radio
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Deleted member 2094080:
I know if I flash my device, I will lost all my data, but can I make a backup of the system settings ? Which program can I use for the backup (All data) ?

I don't understand when you are saying "stock ROM", I just want to install the official ROM which is on the official website.

Or if you know a best similar ROM which is in French, give my his name, because I a bit lost :rolleyes:

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikjensie:
Hey all,

first off, this is NOT me going off in a disappointment rage blaming everyone for not doing things for ME cause I think the universe is all about me... it's more about trying to understand as I unfortunately is not (yet) knowledgeable enough to do any cooking or developing of any sort. I do admire all the things that people do in this forum.

Anyhow... I've been kinda waiting for a vanilla ROM to show up for the Hero as I am kinda fed up and a little disappointed in the HTC Sense... one example is the mailapp that I can only use for my Exchange account and not my IMAP as it doesn't support IMAP prefix... and HTC doesn't seem to want to fix it...

I was under the impression that the kernel would open all my vanilla dreams doors but it seems like there is still issues to resolve with getting Hero drivers for a vanilla ROM(?)... or am I missing something? Is it simply that no-one want to develop a Vanilla ROM?

This came out much more as a rant than a productive post... sorry but feedback would be appreciated...

//Nik
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djmace:
IMAP email works fine for me???
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wouwout:
IMAP works fine on the regular HTC rom, including prefix. Use it every day.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikjensie:
There's been a known issue (that HTC has admitted to) that with certain IMAP accounts you will only get the folders downloaded, and no e-mail. This is, as far as I know, yet to be resolved... How do you specify IMAP prefix in the built in client?

I know, I'm keeping track of that, and that is part of my frustration in the post... that ROM still lacks quite a bit when it comes to hardware... I thought with the kernel we'd see fully functional ION/Vanilla ROMs... that's what I don't understand...
