Here's the deal. I have a HTC Hero from NTelos which I got free from a friend. I am new to rooting/hacking phones so I need some help. I have been trying to crack into it through some of the posts read here to no avil. I don't know if I am downloading the wrong software for my computers OS (windows 7) or the wrong program for the phone but I would really like to to get this thing running on Sprint. Can anyone help me with this step by step with URLs for all the programs I need to download? I am not so much worried about messing up the phone since it was free.
And English please. lol Remember, I am new at this so talk to me like a dummy.
Post in the correct subforum please.

I don't know how to make a rom, but I do know it's a hard job. I really want to enjoy the android 2.x, but all the cooked roms, no matter 2.1 or 2.2, do not have a working camera. I have to use it, so I just want to know if there is a possibility for me to use android 2.X?
No offense, but you should be banned... before posting you should check other threads!!!

Well yes, it can be done to get it work.
But so far, none of the coders who makes roms for tattoo doesnt know how to do it!

Thats because you REALLY didnt look lol
I really dont know why you are so upset, because I have read most of the threads posted since I got my phone last month. And what's the point to post a thread posted on purpose? I posted it just because I want to know sth I don't know. If I really make a mistake, you can ignore my thread and leave it to the buddies who are willing to answer my question. Thank you for your cooperation.

Hi and welcome to xda!
First thing's first: Are you rooted yet? You will be limited in what you can do until you root.
Here is a step by step guide to rooting 2.1.
Here is the board with all of the Hero ROM's.
It may appear daunting at first, but it's fairly straight-forward and easy to do. Just follow the directions exactly. Also, I believe there is a one-click root app around here somewhere called Androot, I believe, but I'm not sure how well it works, as I didn't use it to root. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

This question should have been posted in the General section. Anyway, you apparently haven't even begun to read the sticky posts in this forum because you would have found the answers.
Unlocking your hboot is the first step. Now you can use either the Downgrade tool in the General section or the HTC IncS tool 3.3.0.1 in this section.
Yep, as tpbklake said read the stickies on the general forum, they will give you your answer, the gave me an answer when I didn't know anyway
And what happened to the 10 post rule??

I'm going through the newb guide and Im stuck at step 4 because the "here" link is unavailable.
on this post i mean http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1337105
4. Go to here and download the recovery image for the Incredible S. Put it in the "android" folder along with the other files needed for HTC's unlock process, above. This file is the ClockWorkMod recovery image for the IncS.
Thanks

I guess the fact that he has been a member for so long must have allowed him to post in DEV.
I just wanted to post in here telling this guy how he was f***ed but it seems as though everyone else has taken him down a notch already. Glad to see people are posting about him and not to him. : )

What a bad reply !!
If u are bothering to reply to insult the guy or make fun of him, then u are all selfish idiots.
Why not bother and tell him the easiest way he can do his root ?
Why can't we be a little friendly ?
Is to dam* hard ?

Is today "Defend a moron who posted this thread in the wrong forum months ago" day? Get over it and yourself.
It's even more weird if you check his post history... He hasn't posted in months. Assuming he bought an incredible S that updated to 4.0.4 and it was the first thread he found and was sad that there was no direct answer without having to read.

whats even more weird is I was doing a search for incredible s parts, my girlfriend (not that you two hobbits would know what that is) ruined the micro-usb jack on her already rooted incredible and this thread was dug up by google. look like i struck a nerve amongst the lifeless acne ridden of xda....dont be so sensitive little missies, grow a thicker skin or go home. It seems to me the morons in this thread are the ones who ASSume to know what they do not.

If you're going to post, at least help a newbie out.
JxCarr - try this forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/moto-x-qa
That's not even a question that should be helped. 1 post, and joined this month. I read my ass off for about a month before jumping into anything. It's called LEARNING. They would like you to do it for them. We were all super noob once. IF the question was: "Hey, I did this, this, and this. I'm at this point and I tried this, but now its doing this? I tried fixing it by doing this. And I don't know what to do." That deserves a pointer/answer/help.
I did the simunlock the other day ive been expiermenting on my g4 and i restored tot method with flashtool like i have in the past. Well internal sd and unlock stuck. When phone booted up it was still unlocked and intern sd data was still there in the past flash tool wipes everything why not this time

Why play with your device if you don't know to expect issues. Guess this one bit you in the ~ too when you can't even run or know what to expect from a flash tool either .So don't ask questions if you can't find your own answers

You are missing the point of XDA! Of course he expects issues if he's modding stuff. XDA is all about trial and error. It's also about helping people to not make mistakes, and to help them fix mistakes they made. It's about sharing information and asking for help. XDA may have orignally only been for developers, but not that is not the case anymore. Even when it was, developers ask for help too! To not ask for help is egotistical and foolish. Intelligent people ask questions.
