ok thanks...shame tho, dont think ill go back to hero for a while..loved it!
but, i love my txts better..

I need my texts as well. I am on jachero 1.6rb and I got all my txts. With other hero roms I did not get all my txts. SO if you want get jac 1.6rb

agreed. jac 1.6r2b (sounds like a droid from star wars) has been the best rom as far as sms goes. i am pretty sure i got them all... meaning nobody called me asking if i got their text or sent a reply saying hello? lol

thing is, i dont when i lose my txts. the only reason i knew i was losin txts was cuz i was using this messages widget..in launcher, not rosie.
when a txt came up, sms popup popped up showing an Old text..and i just dismissed it.
but when i went to the messages widget, i saw my new txt, but when i opened up messaging or chomp sms, it wasnt there. i tried clicking it from the messages widget to open it, then it just disappeared.
ive been using hero for a while, and i didnt have that messages widget...so i wonder how many txts i wuld av lost without even knowing - and well..nobody calls to check if i got their txt..they just think im ignoring them...(which i do alot anyway).
i was using jac 1.6..i think a, i actually sent and received a couple of txts the night i flashed it, so i didnt suspect anything. the next day's the day i realized id lost some.

ur not really gonna lose messages from the 1.6 whatever though are you, aint that upgrade only? But I'm sure there are some scripts that will backup your sms. Look for the gscripts thread, it may be in there.

Bluetooth made it to hero yet?

so i have been reading posts looking to see if anyone has put bluetooth in a hero rom yet but didnt see anything, so im geussing no.
but was wondering with the hero device that is going to sprint if anyone has ported it over to the g1. Just a plain rom, no mods or even one with roms.

it would be a very big thing and if you use hero roms. i am sure there would be a huge banner in all of the hero threads about bluetooth working. the last thing i heard about it was that there is a slight hardware difference for the bluetooth in the hero and the dream, so i don't know if there will be a work around for it soon.

why dont u use bluex?

No damn it! Why do you need to read when you have a "Create new Thread" button?! You can just get other people to read for you!

can u tell me which rom is better including BT wifi GPS

I call this to be locked lol. READ. For god sakes. It's all a personal opinion. NONE OF THE HERO ROMS HAVE BT. Maybe if you read you wouldn't have asked the question at all. Or read any of the posts for that matter.

every hero rom that has been released has 100% working bluetooth, but you must fail horribly if you cannot get it to work.

1 word, awesome! LOL!

I think JesusFrekes Hero was the best. BT and BT transfer were wonderful. As well as multi-touch and flash. My opinion tho.
YAY!!!!!

All Hero's have working WiFi and GPS, none have BT ><

You have to go to Full Web View I believe in order to see them... Then go to Control Panel (CP) and look all the way to the Left!

I'd go with CM7 as a first rom. it works well, and is pretty fast.

have to agree with dragoon there, just starting out go with CM 7.0.3 or 7.1.0. easy to flash ,theme and tweek. good for a starter.

Well Ive had a rooted phone before. This is actually a down grade from what I had which was the MyTouch 4G. I used CM7 on that and loved it so I might have to give it a shot.

Question

I want to use my hero as an mp3 /video player is there a way to remove the phone part of the phone?
If so can someone point me in the right direction please.....

theres no need to remove anything to make it an mp3/video player. all you have to do is have airplane mode on all the time. as far as a good rom for speed, i suggest cm7.2 stable. from there you can customize with any app you want.

I agree, however you will need to experiment with it because my son did just that and he had problems with it being stable after playing a few songs. Don't expect to do much else with it.

No need for airplane mode either. Open up your dialer and dial *#*#4636#*#*
Then scroll down to the bottom and you will see radio. Then disable/turn off the radio.

? i use my heroc for mainly an internet browser, youtube, and music. i've never had it ever lock up on me while playing music in any of the cm7.2 rc's or final. did you or your son v6 supercharge the phone? thats usually the first thing i do.

That only works on a sense based rom. cm/aosp builds don't have the the dialer that supports ##DIAG#

Quite right, I made the mistake of testing in dialer one instead of phone.
