Check and see what her Baseband version is maybe it listed there.Just a word of Warning as I'm sure you already know this.But just in case don't flash anything that is for a GSM Hero radio.IT WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE!

You can flash back to the last one,I believe it was .27 the newest that came with this latest update was .29.If you flashed the radio that was posted .29 and want to go back just download it from Flipz site and flash it or you can go back to the radio that you had.It's ok like I said I go back and forth between 2.1 and 2.2 alot and use the same radio.
Dose any one have a link to non Sprint radio. I'm running a 2.2 rom sense group heroc v8.5. Would a radio for 2.2 work?

how
how did u get froyo 2.2 for alltel htc hero?i too have the same radio,and cannot find any roms for froyo 2.2 for alltel.ive already rooted.
First flash back to a 2.1 stock based rom. Then go into your dialer and type ##775# and it should update your radio.

##775# is to set up prl updates. It dose not give an option to update the radio.

Unless you can find a more recent alltel hero system dump (unlikely), your best bet would be to RUU back to stock/nand restore if you have it, then go do all the system updates and such. RUU updates are the ones that contain radios. If there isn't one then you can't have a newer radio, if there is one do it - but you will lose root. I would suggest you get s-off first in case they patched root. Good luck.
I did find a update here
http://www.pcdphones.com/
But it did not have a radio update. I did find a link for prl and download update did ##775# when I was on the alltel rom. Its alot better now thanks to all.

I was hoping someone could answer a simple question that after researching isn't obviously stated anywhere I've looked.(forums slowing down? yeah, because I've been using the search religiously for days) so let's get down to it.
concerning flashing 2.1 based ROMs onto a rooted sprint cdma htc hero that is running 1.5-
in the new Wiki page of roms for the cdma htc hero, there are two main lists, one for 1.5 ROMs, and another for 2.1 ROMs.
all I want to know is can I flash 2.1 based ROMs on my phone that is running 1.5?
silly question, but I don't want to brick my phone by trying to apply a ROM that isn't compatible with my phone. a simple yes, or no is all I'm looking for.
thanks in advance, and please don't judge, I'm new to this, and want to simply avoid mistakes.

I'd start with posting in the correct forum: development instead of themes and apps.
That said, I'm very happy with Froyo 2.2.1 (released dec 13).

Did you wipe everything in recovery mode before installing the rom?
If you're not familiar with rom install steps, follow the steps in the guide posted in the development forum.

It depends on which you binds good. For me I use floyo 1.2 rom. But you may give a try for froyodvillain 1.7(I think).
and here is somewhere a chinese rom, which is also good too but it may be abit difficult for you to understand that things as you are new to this things..
hope this helps you
Thanks guys going to try froyo 2.2.1 think I need to to look into this abit more though lolz.. what's the radio updates I keep hearing about?

I'd start with telling him to post in the real correct section, which we all know is general, or even Q&A
I use FroydVillain 1.7.2, but if you want speed, just flash flykernel 12 on your current ROM and it should be rapid.
I put froyo 2.1.1 on my phone and wiped everything including my nandroid back up is there any way I can get it back? Froyo is amazing may I add lol.. can I create a backup image of this rom instead?

no, if you deleted your nandroid, that ROM is gone forever
Yep, just reboot into recovery, and select 'Backup/Restore' and then 'Nand Backup'

There is a Radio thread in the dev section, where you can flash the newest radio versions. As to what it does.. im not entirely sure myself its supposed to improve phone reception i think.
But make sure you flash the correct type of radio... There is GSM or CMDA. Make sure u know which is the correct one for you!
Has anyone had the problem t30 from the sprint vvm app? I'm running the cmgb rom its the 1/11 update I think. All it says us error t30 when I run it. Tried uninstall then install and doing it through titanium backup. Nothing seems to fix it...has anyone else had this problem?

I've looked around and only found people with installing it issues, I can install it. It just wont work
Sent from my HTC Hero CDMA using XDA App
Follow instructions on the wiki. Only way I know of to get it working. You don't restore vvm app and data from titanium. Only data. There is a special vvm .zip to apply. Worked like a charm for me.
Flash sense based rom and update vvm, backup with TB the nand back to gb rom and restore vvm. Data is the only choice you are given.
Sent from my HTC Hero CDMA using XDA App
I tried that, but it's not working. when I flash the sense rom and back it up and cone back to gb rom I can't restore the vvm app.
its crossed out on the bottom, how would I fix that?

There's a .zip on the wiki for vvm. Flash that and restore ONLY DATA from titanium. You have to backup data from sense or froyo rom first though.

Alright that worked flashed the zip then restored it. Thanks for the help

No problem. Glad you got it working.
Yeah sorry forgot to tell you to flash the vvm file and then use TB to restore data only. Glad you got it running.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=853868
as far as prls go u can update it in about phone and software updates u should either get 60679 01115 or 01120, 01120 is a corporate prl.
or you can read through the links in my sig and do a manual prl update.
I don't have that option I have to flash back to a sense rom and do it
