Hi,
Need some advice, planning to get htc hero but checked on webpage the phone got some problems. Some even suggest to get iphone 3gs which is stable. Since this is the best place to get advice, need some feedback on this. Thanks. |

hi masskiller,
u might tell us what's the problem that they are saying in the web. as this is the topic for the hero, all hero users will able to provide feedback. some of the forum is getting some spam from the iphone fan boys. |

i myself haven't try on the new Custom Rom MCR3.0 which are claimed to be faster and smoother than the old version by some forumer here. They are very happy with it!
Furthermore the new HTC sense 2.1 is coming very soon for us to upgrade our phone. This is really an exciting news for most users but so far no review available yet. From the experience i have with this phone, Yes, the touch might not be as smooth as my fren iphone 3GS. but i'm running on MCR2.8. it's acceptable and doesn't causing much issue. If you are a heavy gamer, i think u should go for iphone instead of Hero. because iPhone should have more application at the moment. But who knows in the future what will happend. I believe Iphone do have it's own problem and i would say both phone would have pros and cons. I will try out the new MCR3.0 and provide some feedback later. For now, need to wait for the others comment. |

Where should I select HTTP (in my HERO) and enter to find proxy address and proxy port? Hi...artic_xp ..i was getting this link from somewhere...im not DIGI usrs...so not sure about the configurations details...As for no. 7, could you please give detail instruction on how to find MMS settings (in my HERO) in order to select server profilew? I've been using HERO for 2 and half months and cannot send MMS after rooting....  Thank You! FYI, after you rooted your hero...u have to menually configure your APNs..with seperately..means..new APN for 3G mobile / new APN for MMS GPRS & new APN for 3G wap.. My best advise is call to DIGI helpdesk , talk direct to them...request them to sent you the text with all HERO APN configurations... Any DIGI user here could help artic_xp? FYI, i just found out that my MMS not working too...LOL ...haha...will figure out later... This post has been edited by bonanno: Dec 7 2009, 04:13 PM |

QUOTE(massKiller @ Dec 7 2009, 12:09 AM) Hi, have you actually tried both before? well i owned an iphone 2g and i was considering between these 2 options as well but in the end i chose HTC.. the reason is pretty simple that is because iphone is overpriced! i have been using hero for around a week and i am very satisified with it.Need some advice, planning to get htc hero but checked on webpage the phone got some problems. Some even suggest to get iphone 3gs which is stable. Since this is the best place to get advice, need some feedback on this. Thanks. however, if iphone's price is on par with HTC then no doubt i will definitely buy iphone.. just because of its app store and the smooth touch screen. |

I bought magic, just going to update to official ROM with sense ui, will post it back here if I manage to get the APN settings properly. The pdaexpert asked me to get the screen protector from digital mall, so I still don't dare to use the magic too much yet. hehe... |
