this really depends on your budget and your liking...
the interior really got nothing much difference other than the camera and 3.5mm jack.

1 is price at 2200-2300 and another is price at 1499(if still available).
really on your choice.
have u see the actual phone yet?
i can say both have it's own characteristic and they are nice! brows.gif

hey bro,no need to be so rude.
not only u having both phone.
peace ok? is juz a normal comments from the others. smile.gif

i cant compare the screen whether the screen is more crisp or vibrant...
because from the first day it's already come with the screen protector.
i believe it's depends a lot on this little plastic.

you are able to compare without the protector?

Yes it is Very annoying.. i hv tat problem too..

btw. is there a way to sync contacts in my phone to my Google Acc Gmail??? I backuped by contacts on the phone with MYBACKUP.. and Delete all my contacts in Gmail using my pc... then Retrieve all my contacts through MYBACKUP again.... but it doesnt sync with my g account.. still 0 contacts in my gmail.... unsure.gif
*
If you look at ur ppl contact, u will see a contact type on each ppl.
if you copy ur contact from the sim or PC. ur contact type will be "phone"
in this case, ur contact wouldn't sync with Google mail Acc.

if you create manually or copy from Google, ur contact type will be "google"
in this case, ur contact would sync with Google mail Acc.

thanks Levi!! i've rooted my Hero with MCR 3.0 already.

but dont hav chinese input! so i havta re-root wf 2.8 again? or any thing i can install? haiz..


after rooting, all my sms & contacts gone, OI manager also gone. then i tot wanna do Restore, then everything went back before rooting. wat went wrong? got back up, but after rooting no restore? how?


and still no bluetooth file transfer..very frustrating. any apps to download for bluetooth transfer?

frustrated...sienz..
MCR3.0 is not coming with chinese input, currently the latest chinese input for MCR rom is 2.8. correct me if i'm wrong.
i saw some chinese pin yin input software in the market.
i'm not sure if you dl those software it will offer chinese input to u in MCR3.0
u might wan to have a try.


i blif the backup u mentioned above is the nandroid backup.
this is kind of image backup same like ghosting your windows.
it will restore everything that including the rom.
u can't use this to restore ur msg or contact. u have to use mybackup or other software to backup those msg u needed.

bluethooth file transfer is not available yet, maybe 2.1 eclair.

Thanks danny 83, but i read from another forum says tat 2.1 eclair still CANT do bluetooth file transfer. haiz..disappointed la... sad.gif

so in this case, after rooting, how should i restore my previous sms, contacts etc? sorry i ask alot of questions cuz i really have no idea on all these.

thanks!!
*
u have to use the "mybackup" software or other backup software like "sprite" to backup the sms and contacts before u flash and wipe ur rom.
then u can keep the backup in ur pc and restore it once u completely performed the flash by copying to the phone and use the same software to restore.

hi kiwlm,
anyway we could setup all in 1 apn profile?
becoz if setup using 3, u couldn't have instant mms access unless u choose the apn profile.

i;m using apndroid software suggested by other forumer that could enable mms and on off 3g in any time.
but im trying to figure out is there anyway we could juz configure 1 apn profile and do the job?


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i have tested out the configuration u provide and yes i'm able to send/receive sms when i on/off my mobile connectivity.
Great! now i can uninstall the apndroid.
Digi User, you may follow the instruction provided by kiwlm, The digi website config is not able to be work with all 3 together but onli 1 by 1.

how??? btw wat is apandroid software?


Added on January 24, 2010, 1:44 pmok, my problem fixed dy. now can mms.

Sad huh? Digi themselves doesn't know how to configure the android phones for Digi? Sigh... I guess probably HTC/SiS is a better company to ask since they are the ones who configured the default on our phones stock.

i really think u should call to Digi and tell them:"let me teach u how to set the 3g for HTC android phone.... tongue.gif "

Got to agree about the super lag camera... It's really difficult to take a proper looking photo without a little blurry unless you have really steady hands.

Despite saying that, I think the quality of the photos are relatively good when you got it right and of course under good lightings. 

Btw, mine is running on stock rom.
*
with the proper lightings, i'm really satisfied with the photo quality by hero.
but of cause u cant compare with camera with flash like xenon or led.

below is the photo taken by hero:

this is the photo taken during driving with 110km/h at the side mirror.
quite good for me.

Yup, under good lighting its good. I'm quite surprise though, on your pics while on the move. It looks pretty good. I doubt I can get the same effect with mine. Mine just lags too much...

Are you using a modded rom?
*
yup, im using MCR3.1.
but i doubt that modded rom will have any effect on the camera.

*
did u try a restart of ur phone?
sometimes is the sync detection services got ended by the task manager program.
try to restart it and plug in again.


Added on February 24, 2010, 11:29 pmDozz, do u use any power management apps?
if u did, u may change the screen stay awake timer during ur call.

advise wipe the dalvik-cache in recovery mode before flashing rom. You can move them to SD too..to get more space of your internal phone memory.

I always love Behnaam's work.. rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif
did ya encounter any FC by far?
*
i also juz tried the BeHero1.3.2.
very nice.
is smoother comparing to MCR3.1.
i did not use any task manager and the 1.3.2 still flying...
the new browser is best as the function really useful and more easier to perform text editing and magnifying.
the speed of browsing is increased too.

further more the overall user interface glue nicely.
i like the weather animation after unlock the screen.
i would definitely stick to this.
hopefully there is GPS apps and Chinese input like what 1.5cupcake offering.

u guys have the opposite result?
but it really happens to me. any lagging to u guys?

the only difference from MCR3.1 and Behero1.3.2 is im changing the new 8gb class6 SD.
and my Behero is not as much apps as previous.

any problem u guys having with Behero?
i found out 1 problem with Behero is the phone would lag when receiving incoming calls.
the screen would be slower to show up the incoming contact and photo.
