I asked if anyone having problems controlling the in-call volume during a call. I finally found the solution and what was causing it.

It wasn’t the ROM’s fault that I couldn’t control the call volume during a call. It was my own doing. Under Menu, Settings, Ringer Volume – if you select Use Incoming Call Volume For Notifications, you’ll be able to control the in-call volume by pressing the Volume Rocker on the phone.

So now, apart from Peep "force quit" problem - which HTC is working with Twitter for a solution, I've only got one more issue left to resolve on my Hero. The weather widget which doesn't update (on the homescreen, clock). Day time showing moon, night time showing sun. Sometimes it updates, most of the time it doesn't. Anyone else having this problem?



Note: Mac user here too. Don't use HTC Sync either. Google all the way.

Can anyone who uses yahoo mail here able to open pdf file in the Hero?

Mine seems working fine. When connecting to either Wi-fi or mob. internet..the weather widget at home screen will update itself in around 30 - 45 sec.
I'm using stock firmware n also google sync contact..

ps360, nice wallpaper you got thar :-)

Any source for that wallpaper or wallpaper with the similar theme?

Probably due to its location. Go to Settings and under the "Location" drop down, make sure both entries("Use wireless network" and "Use GPS satellite") are checked. I also have the "Date & Time" setting, and under "Automatic" not checked, which in itself says it uses the network-provided values. To me ,this is network specific, and seeing how the massive problem with our telcos these days, I'd rather have the phone internals figure it out. I never had any problems from Day 1. In fact, I was pleasantly surprised that that weather widget changes even according to the specific area I am in. For example, it is now showing "Ampang" as "Intermittent Cloud" and while I was at work in KLIA 3 days back, it changes to "KLIA" by itself.

By the way, on that picture, that representation is correct. It shows "10:34pm" so it should be showing the moon.

Here you go ....



Yeah, that photo was taken during those "sometimes it updates" moment. Lazy to snap another photo and upload showing the problematic screens. My location changes too, only the sun and moon visual stay unchanged at times. Sometimes, tapping it and going into the weather widget itself, clicking update, will do the trick. But success rate is only 2 out of 10 times. Anyway, its no big deal. Just bugs me not able to get the phone working in the way it should.

I might be able to help u guys to get HTC Hero at RM2250. COD at lowyat.

That's just a Hero against the Mac OS X iTunes artwork screensaver.

Dear all, I am currently noob with all things with Android and Hero. However currently I am doing on my own reading abt this handset, and possibly I may go for this as replacement of my P1i. Speaking of rooting the firmware from the local SIS sets to other ROMS in order to access the Apps Market, I believe it also cause the handset to lose chinese support. I was going through this posting, maybe this firmware Vers 2.73.751.4 may help? link:android.modaco.com/content/htc-hero-hero-modaco-com/291942/03-09-hero-roms-radios-in-update-zip-format/

yeah, forgot to mention that. it's a Celcom packge deal.

more updated news:

as per bluecube twitte, it will come with 16GB card and Jabra bluetooth headset FOC

Nice deal indeed. Go buy and come here :-)
