[Touch HD General] badasschris:
Hi I was wondering if anyone else has this problem.

When I restart my phone my hotmail email will sync perfectly fine and will do so for some time. At some point usually later that day it will stop synching but will not notify me of this, the only way to tell is to do a manual sync and then an error message appears saying syncing failed. Now There has been nothing I have been able to do at this point to make the account sync I have even left it 3-4 days and everytime it will fail. If however I restart the phone it will work perfectly first time.

I have seen this problem on at least 2 roms although 2 versions of the same one. Is this likely to be the rom? or the hotmail server/program?

Hi,

On my HD2 both MicroSoft tag and neoreader get the camera image positioning wrong such that with respect to portrait orientation, the image is rotated 90 degrees (phone motion up produces image motion right), etc. I've only seen this kind of issue in these two programs -- odd that they are both visual data scanning tools.

Anyone else seeing this? Anyone have a quick fix or is this something wrong in the programs?

/P
[HD2 General] levi3man:
Absolutely

No One cares,

I have had this problem on all windows phones i have owned when using microsoft tag. I have reported problem to microsoft, no reply. someone said they had this problem back in april, they didnt get a reply.

No one wants to talk about it or fix it. Im fed up! See if any one replies to this with an answer. no one will. and i have no idea why?
[HD2 General] uccoffee:
i think because no one use the microsoft tag thing... hmm
[HD2 General] loomx:
I use it! still works with the leo, just the image on the screen isnt right. But im not really bothered as long as it works :)

Hello,

I installed Opera 10 Beta 1, which totally sucks for me. I cannot browse a site, because it just freezes.

Do anyone know how to get the old original back, without hard-reseting? I think it was 9.7 or something, but I cannot find it, on Opera's site.

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] creutzwald1105:
On my device Opera 10 install itself into a new folder and I could use Opera 9 and 10 simultaneously. Uninstall Opera10 via Start>Settings>Remove Application should revert your device to the "original " state. If IE is now your default browser you can set it back to Opera 9 with this cab.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] wroet:
That's right:

Uninstall Opera 10, the old one is still on your device... (In my case, dutch original: rom 9.5)

It might not be your default browser anymore (as I experienced) but you can still find it in your programs list...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] mortenaa:
I have the solution

I've done some digging and found a solution!

Why would you want to change back to 9.7? Because the browser works better than Opera 10, as 10 is just a Beta..

1. Uninstall Opera 10 Beta from Start / Setting / System / Remove Programs

2. Download Opera 9.7 from http://www.megaupload.com/?d=R148IQ5V

3. Enable Zoombar

[Hero, G2 Touch General] SZ_Editor:
First off - I Private Messaged a couple of people about this, but realized that I should have just posted this in the forum. So, my apologies for anyone seeing this a second time.

I've been getting all sort of conflicting information about the Hero 130 (The Telus one) and which UMTS bands it supports.

Most of the information I see at places like PDADB says that it's UMTS enabled for 850/1900 only, which are the North American bands. FCC reports and the Telus user manual show testing for WCDMA (UMTS) 850/1900 only.

However, HTC's Canada Hero website (http://www.htc.com/ca/product/herotelus/specification.html) says "Dual Mode UMTS" and lists frequencies for US (850/1900), EU/Asia (900/2100) and Telstra (850/2100). Two HTC support techs from their website also confirm that the Hero 130 supports UMTS for US EU/Asia and Telstra, but it feels like they are just regurgitating information from the extremely vague website.

Has anyone with a HERO130 actually gone overseas and seen if you get UMTS/3G to work overseas - or has seen anything that conclusively and definitively proves if it does or does not work?

Thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] itpromike:
I'm wondering the same thing. I'd like to get the Telus one and use it here on AT&T 3g in the states... anyone know if that is possible?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] SZ_Editor:
The Telus version of the HTC Hero (aka HERO130 or A6265) definitely supports ATT's 3G bands. It's been confirmed via the FCC documentation as well that 850/2100 is supported. T-Mobile's 1700MHz is not supported.

My question is specifically in regards to the European/Asian (900/1900MHz) bands. HTC's confirmed that it does support by phone, but I'm still a little dubious. However, I'm ordering one and am going to give it a test!

Stay Tuned!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] BlueHawk:
Yes. It is possible. I've got the Telus Hero, unlocked and running on the Rogers network. HSDPA/3G works fine on Rogers. North American radio bands for 3G are supported with this hardware.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] itpromike:
Awesome! How difficult is the unlocking process?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] itpromike:
I just thought about something. I'm used to the iPhone where you have to root your phone to unlock it for other carriers. Is the way it work with the HTC Hero and the like is that you just pay full price for the phone ($499) and it comes unlocked already? No tinkering needed?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] tsekh501:
The unlocking process is not painful at all, but it costs you $20-25. When you insert a non-Telus sim into the device and power it up, it will tell you that you are using the wrong sim and ask you to enter the unlock code. The unlock code is specific to the IMEI of you phone, so they can't be shared. They can be purchased on eBay for slightly more than $20.

Note that you cannot unlock your phone by flashing a custom ROM. So unless you figured out the magic formula for generating these unlocking code (different for each device and different for each carrier), you have to pay for it one way or another.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] itpromike:
So I buy the full priced ($499) phone from Telus, then I have to buy the unlock code from Ebay? Hmm... I feel leery about buying something like this from Ebay. Is there an official channel I can buy an unlock code from?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] tsekh501:
I paid mine for the full price too, but this doesn't make the phone automatically unlocked. Telus enters an exclusive contract with HTC to be the sole carrier of this phone in Canada (at least for now), and they have every right to make sure that an average-joe, who knows nothing about unlocking, who wants this phone have to go to them, with or without contract. Exclusive dealings are extremely common in cell phone industry, and they are not free for the carrier.

I doubt Telus would unlock the phone for you. In the US, T-Mobile will unlock their phones for you a few months into the 2-year contract, may be Telus will do the same, if you signed a contract with them that is.

I just went to eBay and notice that there are now many sellers selling Telus Hero unlock code, and some are selling for as low as $13. I bought mine from a seller called cellfservices, it is not the cheapest but it worked (and it took them about an hour after the sales to send me the code).
[Hero, G2 Touch General] profets:
mobileincanada.ca seems to be one that is very popular for unlocking, $20cdn, and they usually send unlock code very fast (within 5 minutes)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] ericlin0122:
all right people.

I am here to bust the myth.

Telus hero does not have asian HSPA band.

I have two heros: GSM and Telus.

Tested location: Taiwan.

Telus hero with Taiwan sim card = GPRS only, no 3G connection.

GSM hero = 3G connection.

Telus hero does not have dual model 3G, period.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] itpromike:
So which do I get for AT&T

Ok so I'd like one of these WITH 3G connection on AT&T so which one would I get to make this happen? I'm leaning toward the Telus model from what I've been reading but if anyone can confirm or deny this, that would be great. Also once I have it and it's been unlocked, then what do I tell AT&T? Just order a second line with a data plan? Won't they ask me what type of phone is this for or how should I do this?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] BlueHawk:
The Telus Hero is the only current Hero model that will work with 3G/HSDPA in North America. The European Hero will only use Edge for Data - it doesn't support the North American radio bands. The Sprint model only supports CDMA.

Do you need a second line? Are you planning to run two cell phones? If not, just switch your current AT&T SIM into the Hero and get a data plan for that SIM/line.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] itpromike:
I do plan on running a second line yes. I have an iPhone 3GS as my main phone and I am planning on using the Hero to play around with as my second phone. The hero is a decent phone and fun to flash and play around with etc... but I couldn't ever really use it as my main phone. I definitely couldn't give up my iPhone 3GS for an Android phone just yet there are still some refinements that Android as a mobile OS needs to undergo and still some refinements that HTC needs to bring to the SenseUI as well. I rely too heavily my phone and it doing what I need it to do as fast as possible. I did have the Sprint Hero for a month before I took it back, I just didn't like it... it was slow, laggy, and some of the things I wanted to do with the phone that I was just so used to doing on my iPhone either couldn't be done OR had to be done in a way that didn't make very much logical or design sense. I had a lot of those 'why can't I just press this to make it do that?' moments or 'why the heck would they put this menu under here?' moments. Anyhow with that being said, Hero and Android are still fun platforms to play with and flash and try different settings and home screens and different ROMS etc so I'm going to get another one but this time on AT&T so I can use voice and data at the same time (one of the things I hated about having the Hero on spring was the inability to use data and voice at the same time as well as how slow sprints data was compared to AT&T)... but I wouldn't want a phone that I flashed and played around with so much to be a phone I relied on for mission critical work.

So what's the best way of going about this? What type of line should I order from AT&T? What should I ask for when i call or go into the store to get another line? Any suggestions?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Broken:
I just got my Telus Hero last week, and coming from a 3G iphone, this blows it away. Not sure about the 3GS as it is a faster processor..... Also better than the Tilt 2. Love it. Just waiting on Eclair to get Google Navigation and other goodies...

;)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] itpromike:
Yeah the iPhone 3G (I have both a 3G and 3Gs) and the Hero are pretty comparable. Browsing the web (which I do a lot) is faster on the 3G but the loading of applications etc... are pretty much the same. This is stock to stock so no modding on either phone. The scrolling on the 3G is much smoother than a stock Hero. I know that there are ROMS that make the device faster which is the only reason I'm even rethinking about getting one. The 3GS however is just no contest. But I've pretty much had all the fun I can out of the iPhone; not talking about the the apps as there are so many apps to choose from and a lot of them are awesome and fun to use, but with modding the phone itself and playing around with the OS etc I've done all I can do with the iPhone and want something new to play with...
[Hero, G2 Touch General] BlueHawk:
Just tell them you have an existing phone so you want a new SIM and to purchase a plan for a smartphone (data and voice plan) - they can advise you on deals and packages then. The carrier should never care about the phone - it's not like they make money on it - they usually subsidize the manufacturer for a unit anyway, in a profit sharing deal. The only thing the carrier is really interested in is the data and voice carriage charges. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] cargo54:
i would just tell them you want to add a line for regular phone with unlimited data. that way you dont have to pay extra for the smart phone data. unless of course its cheaper and you can just for like ten dollars make your smart phone data plan you have now a family unlimited
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Twenty4:
That would not be the best option. If you are going to add a line, figure out which phone they are giving away for free they you can get the biggest profit by flipping on eBay. Most likely the Solstice.

This way you can get away with the cheaper non-smart phone data plan and get about $200 back by selling the "free" phone they give you.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] holydhaliwal:
Can anyone confirm if the telus hero ships with the updated faster firmware? Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Broken:
Must have had a dud iphone then as my Hero is noticeably faster than my 3G in pretty much everything. Well, browsing is pretty close. Battery life is better and with my iphone speedtest got 900k down and 256 up. Hero gets 2mb down and 1mb up. Liked my iphone, am glad the Hero offers a similar user experience.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] tsekh501:
No 2100Mhz 3G support for Telus HTC Hero

Just tested my Telus HTC Hero in Hong Kong, and I could not get onto the 3G networks here, only GPRS.(tested with 2 different sim cards, both carriers use 2100Mhz for 3G).

At the same location, with the same sim cards, Apple iPhone 3G, Hong Kong version HTC Hero (HERO100, same as European version), and HTC Touch Pro 2 could connect to the 3G networks of these two carriers. My Telus HTC Hero couldn't.

Either HTC Canada is providing wrong informatoin, or a software bug is preventing the phone from supporting these bands. Note that while the specification under the product page on HTC Canada website says that the phone supports 900/2100 Mhz for 3G, the specification in the user manual of Telus HTC Hero doesn't say so. In the user manual, only 850/1900 support is mentioned.

Hi,

My previous phone was a SonyEricsson and I had this app for Windows named MyPhoneExplorer. I could connect to my phone with this app and do all sorts of things. One of those things was typing a message on the computer and send it through the network on the phone.

That was pretty nice for some long text messages, where is faster to type on the computer than on the phone. Specially when I'm not yet used to the touch keyboards.

Is there any app I could do this with the Hero?

[Hero, G2 Touch General] rfgamaral:
For starters, Java applications look horrible in Windows and most of the time the developers don't even care about using controls that have native look and feel which conforms to Windows Guidelines. That bugs the hell out of me.

Unless an application looks and feels like it belongs and fits in Windows, I don't care the language it's developed in, even if it's Java, I just won't use it unless I really have to. But that's not the case most of the time.

It doesn't seem to send SMS as you said already, but it looks a damn nice application for Windows users (it seems that it also runs under Mono, or it's something the developer is interested in).

I have to take a look at that and maybe make a feature suggestion for that... :)
