1) No random calls - front pocket has been nice to me so far, plus adding a lockscreen or disabling Menu(x2) to unlock seems to work as well

2) Swype, Dvorak, Swiftkey ftw

3) could be a whole array of different things related to the rom, kernel, app, etc.

4) errybody hates this :mad: you could try a handheld fan

5) lolwut probably a google talk issue

6) Mhm, mhm. wait a second.. "I end up not redialing someone" -> "Dialing the last person I called/who called me" What's your definition of redialing?

7) Jit'ing only feels good if you do it sparingly, otherwise you start to slow down and eventually your phone becomes impotent when it comes to jit o.O

8) :( you're lonely.. we've all been there. Don't blame the phone, thats why you should get a laptop :D bigger screens ftw

9) Damn straight, completely agree with you

Haha we need more people like you on this sub-forum

:( too bad you're leaving to the evo...I won't be there until possibly early end of winter. best of luck with that phone :)
[Hero CDMA General] theimpaler747:
Lol classic :D
[Hero CDMA General] danaff37:
I had all these issues on stock firmware lol it is sad. But on cm6, it us all fixed, except wifi tether heat and no island. Oh and the porn, but I don't really do that on the phone anyways
[Hero CDMA General] user7618:
My phone is my only porn outlet. The misses keeps an eagle-eye on the pc. :-(

Sent from my CDMA Hero. I got some hot Froyo on Hero action here!
[Hero CDMA General] rideascooter:
incognito window on Chrome will keep that eagle eye from seeing a thing!

BINGO
[Hero CDMA General] rank78:
CM6, modified kernel, XDA keyboard, battery tweak, launcherPro

What do I get? A fast and responsive phone running 2.2 that lasts 2 days on a charge. Sorry you have bad luck, or haven't optimized your phone to get the best out of it. Also, the "I shouldn't have to" excuse is weak if you're so disappointed in a phone that came out a year ago. I can't wait until the next big sprint phone comes along but to be honest I have nothing to complain about, I'm that satisfied. HUGE difference from the ****ty instinct I had before. lol

I don't get these farewell threads, just make the switch and move on. Maybe some here will follow your twitter but most of us are more concerned with the Hero. Not trying to be a ****, and I'm sure you're a nice guy and all, but I fail to understand why the world must be notified as to a person's purchases.

On a side note i bought an evo yesterday had an upgrade I was holding for a while... this phone is awesome I don't think ill be buying a tab now.

Don't worry guys ill stick around since ill always have a soft spot for the hero forum. I think its produced some of the best Serbs and themers

Ino i saidi want going to but the hero was getting boring
[Hero CDMA General] cordell12:
I had a ****ty instinct too! I bought 2 of them, one for me and one for wife. It was to be the iphone killer! Yeah right :mad: I remember they held a app contest, trying to get more developers to make apps for the phone. All that came was a few apps and a bunch of complaining from the dev that sprint wont release code to access things they needed to make the apps work! Frickin Sprint has been screwing people for a loooong time!!! :mad: Yet what do I do when its upgrade time? Get the newest POS :D Maybe next time I will hold out for the release that comes after the "new release" ie, hero/evo ;) Thanks to all the devs who made my and everyones else's hero manageable :)

does that mean bye bye to [THEME] DarkEdge UI :(

I know I'm a bit late to the party but here it goes.

1) b!tch, whine

2) whine some more

3) isn't this an android problem, not Hero?

4) even some more whining (cause i bet you're even stealing the wifi tether no?)

5) i didn't know 5 seconds was that important to your life, but hey if you're trying to find something to whine about...

6) see #5 above.

7) jit isn't part of the original phone (you make this claim for b!tching about other "problems'

8) Get a life

9) So stupid

Good riddance, enjoy the unemployment checks and keep feeling entitled.

Go complain in the EVO forums!
[Hero CDMA General] Powers16:

[Hero CDMA General] Powers16:
Im not a **** i just expressed my opinion and people actually agreed.

A few people didnt agree with it and decided i was a clown for upgrading my device for my various reasons.

They initiated my retaliation on a post that has been done several times over by other users who moved on to the evo/epic.

And as of now i am posting in the wrong section of the forum since i do not own a hero now so.....

good luck with your devices. hope you get a non asop 2.2 port with sense.

have a great day.
[Hero CDMA General] dpeeps74:
Yes it does

lol whats with everyone *****ing about a guy who's "*****ing"? lets all just take a minute and realize this is only online

:eek: watnoway!?

we 'should' all have lives outside of this place that we can invest emotional responses into...not some phone forum haha. be thankful the OP isn't a troll otherwise this place would have TONS of people bleeding between their hips getting worked up over a few comments here and there.

tldr: if his comments bother you just ignore it and don't fuel the fire. honestly who cares.
[Hero CDMA General] Mac11700:
Damn..it just a frigging phone...Get a life ..Get a grip..and get the hell over it for crying out loud..The Hero is a very good phone..Just cause you got a dorked one isn't any reason to diss the little feller..I had a chance to run the latest firmware for a week before getting my Captivate..and it did very good..Running CM6 and the Impalers theme made it great for what it is and has..It can't help that it's stuck on the Sprint network ;):D

[Hero CDMA General] phreak311:
I love my Hero, I love it, never had any of these problems that you have with it...

Just my 2 cents...
[Hero CDMA General] phreak311:
I also love Sprint's network too. WiFi tether through my hero is fast enough to play Xbox live without Lag...

Just my other 2 cents...

Damn I'm broke
[Hero CDMA General] Zexter:
Same here brotha man. I came from the instinct as well. When I was up for an upgrade I went crazy. I got the pixi. Liked it so I took it back and got the pre. Loved it, but then found out about the lack of devs, and the company's problems. Made my last move to the htc hero. (All of that happened in like 1.5 weeks, rofl)

I have no issues with this phone, and love the community as well. I understand the premise of not wanting to customize a phone, but I'd rather get the most out of my money, and to do so, you must customize.

To OP... Bye :p
[Hero CDMA General] add119:
1. that probably the rom your using

2. it doesnt lag to me

3. it doesnt force close on me

4. that happen to every phone i had droid 1 as well before overheating it to much and overcharging it. I can tell u the evo will be having the same problem.

5.that your issue

6. again mine is snappy im using fresshhh rom until 2.2 os sense ui rom

7.making it up.

8. their plenty of porn site get over it.

9. are you serious? are you high?
[Hero CDMA General] kostov22:
i agree with RANK78 ... with a good custom rom...the phone is really good...i hated it with the stock rom....well..not any more...i think i will keep mine for a while...

i think i will wait for dual tegra 2 device to come out (come on star)...we'll see...

but on the topic....i love my hero....

aosp 0.9.8...........:)
[Hero CDMA General] YoshioDuo:
Bit late on this myself - Stock rom was bad but with CM6 there are so many things that don't bother me anymore. Not to mention a new kernal, BatteryTweak and more... it's fast. The one thing I agree with however is #6. Stock - MoDaCo's custom - CM6; this always drives me insane, especially when I'm managing multiple calls, hanging up on one person and trying to quickly call another back, etc. The lag of hanging up and refreshing the call history is the cause of the mis-redials. I'm just too impatient though.

#2 was also a MAJOR grip of mine, but then with CM6 and HTC IME keyboard well, I'll just say it seems like a god-send. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=856442

So now I love the hero and I'm more than satisfied (but only thanks to the devs & community here) however, I do think I'm going to get an EVO tonight.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j.eaton80:
I have a samsung captivate that i have updated to the leaked 2.2 froyo and needless to say it is a very nice beta version but i am looking foward to the official release my question is there anyone out there that can tell me how to flash everything back to orignal so i will be able to get the OTA update of the official 2.2 froyo noob here in desperate need of help

Take a deep breath. Ok, there is a decent chance that the over the air update wont work for you no matter what you do. That is the bad news. Good news is that it will be available on this site almost immediately after it is out.

What rom did you flash and why are you so desperate to get rid of it? You jumped in the pool might as well learn how to swim
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j.eaton80:
I flashed the leaked 2.2 rom got it off xda site figured it would be about as easy to do as jailbreaking an iphone but ill admit i couldnt have been more wrong well anyway this leaked ji6 rom has its cool parts but my phone has problems with freezing up now and various occasional hiccups tried the one click flash to stock but that made it worse so back to ji6 i went guess its too late now but just wish i could go back to stock now :-(
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mac11700:
Amazing ain't it...:eek: Shows how anxious they all are or how little they research these things. I waited quite some time before flashing any roms on my Sprint Hero and once the 1 click rooting became available went over at least 2 dozen different roms intently before flashing CM6 and any additional oc kernels. That phone was a walk in the park compared to this one since you could revert back 100% stock with a current RUU apk.

I wonder whats going to happen when they don't release 2.2 and go straight to Gingerbread in December...how many bricked phones will there be...? ;)

[Touch HD General] fulham:
Hi,

I have Dutty's v4.3 ROM installed in my gadget.

Just over last few days it has been doing something funny:

When I pull the stylus out of it's slot, the device doesn't turn itself on (it used to before) and when I turn the device off (as in turn the screen off) and put the stylus back into it's slot, the device (screen) turns itself on (which was never the case before)!

In other words, it's responding in a reverse order.

Any suggestions/tweaks etc?

cheers
[Touch HD General] Bodisson:
This question belongs to Dutty ROM thread, not here...
[Touch HD General] fulham:
Oh sorry! Yes, it has Dutty's ROM installed but also has SPB shell 3.5 with Touchflo disabled.

Has been working smoothly with no problem until last few days that it started having this type of problem.

I thought may be it's shell related.

But if you guys think it still is a ROM issue, I will discontinue this post from this site.

Cheers
[Captivate General] nj777:
Hi,

I need some help to decide.

Should I buy this phone now or wait for later this year, or even maybe 2011(witch is to long time waiting).

Currently I own a Xperia X10(tired of this phone, no software update, captivate has way better screen) on Tmobile, and moving to ATT would be good I think.

Plan difference is not so big besides the cap limit on internet.

Please help, I will sell my Xperia X10, to have money ready for a new phone.

Thanks.
[Captivate General] Roxy:
Well honestly it is really up to you. I don't think the community should decide for you. Would the possibility of having a non working GPS bother you? Would the possibility of having a phone that randomly shut down bother you? ( then you'd have to deal with AT&T warranty and such ) Those are some examples of problems that you should consider about. Samsung is known for having ****ty customer service and lack of updates. You see, the latest OTA update that we received were supposed to fix GPS problems... but it didn't... so... * shrug *

Don't get me wrong, I love my phone. It's just that samsung frustrates me at times because of their incompetence.
[Captivate General] Mac11700:
How about...would I if I were you...:D

I don't have the Xperia..but did have the Hero..and they are fairly close..

I look at it like this..as much as I loved my Hero with CM6 over clocked to 768mhz and all the themes and goodies...I wouldn't go back. I don't depend on my gps in my telephone to make my life easier..If you do..then you might want to wait..but..know this..You can copy Walmart's info from the web for the Captivate and go into a ATT store and walk out with one for $59.00.

As too the random shut downs..I'm running bare bones stock...I've had my phone on solid since last Thursday and have loaded and played 5 HD movies on it..talked for about 200 hours and sent about 30 text messages..and not one blip/fc/shutdown or anything else..Also..I told the sales lady I wanted one where it would do the 3 button recovery..She Googled it to see what I was talking about and said ok..no problem..Mine worked first time..but had to open the 7th box to get one that did for the wife.Both of ours works great..and the GPS isn't real bad..I lock on to about 8-10 sats under 10 seconds with mine..the wifes is about the same..

If it were me..Hell yes..I love this phone..

[Captivate General] galaxyjeff:
The leaked froyo sure is nice though. I haven't had any random shut down issues unless I let the phone stay on the charger to long and then it will only shut down when its sitting without being used.
[Captivate General] avgjoegeek:
Um, not to be a hater here but....

This was the only high end android device that ATT had. All the other phone s the carrier offers besides the Aria is a joke.

I feel very lucky that XDA and Design Gears is around or I would have a completely useless device. No way would I recommend this phone to John Q Public.

There are too many awesome devices out that work. Sure the screen is awesome and its fast as hell. But it is laden with bugs and took folks in this community to get it to run.

Couple that with Samsung's track record? I would recommend getting another device. Most likely an HTC.

Of course with all that being said... I love my phone and wouldn't trade it for any other on the market today...... Until the next shiny new device comes out. :-)

With my phone using Cognition, because it just runs better.
[Captivate General] nbs11:
Are you meaning to tell me that the Moto Backflip is not a quality phone?! /sarcasm
[Captivate General] nj777:
Thanks for all your sugesstions,

A reply to second post: I am not looking for someone to pic a phone for me, I was trying to get information if there is a better choice comparable to Captivate and better than Xperia. And I didn't find any better device at this time or any confirmed device that would be available later. Sorry if I didn't express myself clearly.

As for Gps issue I know, trouth to be told I don't really use it so no big deal there, as for restarts and lag Captivate is not the only one doing that, my X10 does it to, I noticed it based on ever root or updates, mostly I think it's from incompatible software And hardware, even my Windows and Mac does that. My wife's IPhone 3GS does that too when using it too much and having to many apps xD.

So, are there any shortlly upcoming devices I should know? My google research didn't get far, maybe there is anyone with more information about it.

Thank you, I appreciet all your opinions :)
[Captivate General] Dani897:
better but comparable to captivate, hmmm the g2 from t-mobile. thats about it. no other phone has the 3d procesing of a galaxy s. but some are faster at other things. the g2 is very fast across the board.

snapdragon htc phones have bad battery life, the aria has too small of a battery. i had one it had alot of features but the screen was too small and no battery life, its basically a hero with android 2.1. so other than the g2 that leaves motorola phones that are only on verizon and have less performance than the g2.

i like the captivate but i think i would also like a g2.
[Captivate General] tbong777:
I would and did and don't have an ounce of regret. I have learned so much in the past few weeks which is empowering when it comes to choosing and flashing ROMS. My expectations from a $500 device that does so much is very low so I am rarely disappointed.

My GPS works to around 30 meters. Good enough. The Music player is phenomenal even through the stock buds.(and I normally use Westone 3s and ETY 4s) I have never seen such a customizable device and fool proof as well IF you take the time to really understand and follow directions

Read the later parts of long threads so you don't get into the middle error area where issues are resolved. Don't be afraid to ask questions after you look for an answer. It is a very friendly forum. Very few "self appointed forum cops"

I would not wait. get the JH6 and begin playing with ROMS and recovery. When the official 2.2 comes out you won't be afraid to burn a better cooked Cognition ROM of it later.

There will be bugs...There are always bugs......
[Captivate General] SiL3nTKiLL:
i say get it, i went from the fuze to the captivate and im never looking back, couldnt be happier :)
[Captivate General] sayurann:
If I were you, I will wait probably... X10 is a great device, but i dont know if they are going to release update... I will stick with X10, and change to a better phone next year... samsung is too ****ty, dont get ur hand with them if u can... also, dont even try to get att, they are ****ty too...

if u want, sell ur X10 and buy a vibrant...

im with att because they are the only carrier with rollover... and i have captivate because its the best android on att

tHe OTA update BRICK my phone, and att/samsung are blaming each other... they sucks...

do you mind to share your gps configuration?
[Captivate General] eclypse3demons:
I am one of the few or possibly not so few people who did not really have any problems with my Captivate on the android 2.1 release, and actually the 2.2 recently leaked os either.

One thing people do not appear to keep in mind that these phone are closer to a PC now than ever before with pound for pound nearly the same power house operating systems on them. With such a customizable OS on a phone like Droid its bound to have some kinks as I think alot can agree on this, most operating systems do.

That said, its not unheard of for there to be lots of updates, firmware fixes etc, and the numbers in this forum who are posting may not seem to be all that many people when you consider that there are probably far more Captivate owners out there with no issues whatsoever.

What I am saying is that this phone may have some kinks for the people posting in here but it clearly is not every captivate owner having a problem. You can go to any other forums from other sites, and even manufacturers and read hundreds of posts about nearly every phone made with problems.

Do not let the people here steer you one way or the other, but heed the notices regarding possible issues. All the reviews for this phone are not that bad at all, and there are alternative phones, but keep in mind that any galaxy s phone will most likely have the same OS and some of the same kinks. All are samsung so.

imo this is a pretty damn decent phone, it is better than my iPhone 3gs was and I am glad I dont have that pos anymore.

The GPS on my phone is pretty fast to get a signal, it was on 2.1 and 2.2 android, but I do find it to be a tad bit sensitive. Gotta leave in stationary in the open the first lock, after that it appears to maintain pretty well, and i have put it through its paces, average for me in my location for a lock on is roughly 10-45 seconds depending on occlusion.

The phones default power saving scheme to be appears to be very aggressive.
