I am looking for an emulator for windows so that i can test out software functionality of the device.So far i know that rim releases such emulators for its devices and i'm hoping i can find one f or HTC Hero.If you would happen to know anything please let me know. Thank You.
Windows 7 seems to take ages to start using the phone's connection, after you change the connection type.The internet and sharing center thing hangs for like ten minutes, then it connects.Ubuntu doesn't seem to suffer from this problem.
I have installed the terminal emulator [URL] but am facing problem in that it is not responding to key presses. It is only responding to the symbols but no other keys.
I'm about to compress a lot of short videos for mobile phones that will be online. First i compressed as .mp4 (H.264/AAC) which worked fine on iPhone, worked ok on a SE-X1 (needed to load whole movie before it could play), the Hero couldn't recognize the file at all.
The info page for Hero says it handles mpeg-4 (H.263 and H.264) and MP3/AAC.Is it just the .mp4 container that the Hero doesn't like?Does anyone know what format that would be best for video on the net to work on most phones?
I can send and receive sms and also I can send mms but I cannot receive mms. I've tried turning wifi off, using Handcent and disabling messages but it still won't work. Has anyone had any luck with this?
I have a HTC Hero working on metro with voice,text and web some apps work but some do not. most work through wifi. does anyone have any ideas about mms and getting all apps to work through network vs wifi. there is a guy in Hamtramk who has supposedly gotten everything working through metro. for about $100 he will take my phone and add mms.
I'm looking to switch to Sprint and get a new phone (currently have a BB 8120 on TMO). I'm considering the Hero, because I'd like an Android phone, but don't want to get locked into the $10/mo that Sprint charges for the Evo and all future 4G phones.My hesitation is the one that every gadget lover has - will the Hero be obsolete soon after I buy it? We already know that 2.1 is the last Android OS the Hero is going to get.
I'm probably worrying about nothing as the Hero can handle everything I envision doing with the phone - in decreasing order of importance: calls, texts, emails, web browsing, GPS, etc.Hero owners, what would you say to someone considering a 2yr relationship with the Hero?
I just got a Hero, am trying to get my hotmail, but it will not download emails. I am getting a message "Sorry! The application mail (process com.htc.andriod.mail) has stopped unexpectedly. " I called Sprint and they walked me through resetting the phone, deleting the hotmail account, and adding it again, but the same problem persists.
So I've done all the steps on how to send an MMS but when I click on the menu button to pull up attatchments its not there. I texted CS help (I'm with Cellular South) and they said that the Hero is unable to send or recieve MMS at this time and an app is being developed, yet I see all over the internet that people can send MMS so what is the deal?
I have BB Desktop Manager 5.0.1 and I am un able to syncronize my Contacts with Windows Live Mail from Windows 7. The only options the Desktop Manager offers are: Outlook Express, Importad./Exportad. ASCII adn Yahoo.
after using htc hero for 2 months, i tell you right now the biggest problem is that the cpu is not fast enough to run android, with senseUI with its 7 screens.occosionally, IF I haven't restarted it in a long time, The phone will lag so slow that after having pressed something on the screen, it will lag and then capture the movement seconds afterwards.
I dunno if the Eris is that much better to make me stay with Verizon. The Sprint plans are just better. I really have no idea if there's any difference between the two though.
I have an HTC Hero with Sprint, and I'm wondering how to tether it to get internet connection on my laptop through USB. My laptop doesn't have Bluetooth.
I decided to revamp my MP3 library, so I deleted all the MP3's off my phone and then copied a whole new set onto the card. All seemed to work fine, no errors on transfer, all the MP3's showed up in the appropriate folder on the card, and the few I tested (by playing them on my computer) worked just fine. I then disconnect from the computer, and let the phone "remount" the memory card. The phone gives a message saying "Preparing SD card". Unfortunately, it seems that when it says "preparing", what it really means is "DELETING random MP3's". For some reason, it will only let me keep SOME of the MP3's I copied onto the phone less than half of the number I had on it before I deleted them. I can actually WATCH it delete the files. I go to the music player, and watch as the song count spirals downward, my MP3's fading away into the ether. I've tried copying via HTC Sync, and I've tried by copying straight onto the card via a card-reader slot. The results are the same:
I copy the files onto the card I verify that they are present and working on the card I insert the card in the phone (either physically, or by disconnecting Sync) The phone mounts and "prepares" the card The MP3s I've just added have simply vanished I re-Sync, or check the card via card-reader The MP3's are gone. Not in the file, nowhere on the card.
I've just upgraded the software on my phone but now the market app won't load. I get a network conection failure notice but the phone is fully connected to both a mobile network and the internet.
I have downloaded the ROM upgrade to set my phone to Android 2.1. I have also downloaded the latest HTC Sync software.i have no problem 'syncing' my phone with my PC (Windows 7) and the connection is fine. Until, I open the ROM upgrade software on my PC. When I get to the first window warning me the upgrade will delete all info from my phone and asking me to open the Readme, the connection always drops out. Therefore, the PC cannot start updating the phone.
i recently bought a refurbished hero and want to update to 2.1 but i am having problems doing it.there is not a option on the phone to update and i cant seem to update when i connect to my laptop running windows 7, the laptop doesn't recordnise the phone for me to update it.
I was updating my Orange ROM from the HTC site to the most updated one using windows 7 and it needed to install a driver to my pc for the phone halfway through. After this it stopped updating and told me i needed to reset my pc, i did this and afterwards the update stopped running, i hate to reset my phone and reinstate factory settings to get it to work.
I had a problem with the HTC Hero (T-mobile G2) touch screen and sent it back to T-mobile to be serviced. ( Problem: The touch screen would lock and no matter where I tapped on the screen, it would only react at the bottom)I have sent my HTC Hero to be serviced through T-Mobile. They gave me a website that I could check the status of the service and it is now "Dispatched".There is not much information on what they did to the handset - or what the actual problem was, but I can see that they have assigned a different IMEI number. The serial number is the same though.Can anybody deduce what might have happened to my handset?I assume, since the serial number is the same, I will not be getting a new phone. What are the possible scenarios for changing an IMEI on a handset?
- Firmware update? ( I had the latest firmware from T-mobile installed) - new PCB? - new touch screen?
I have a problem, I cant log in to the android market because my google account that is linked to it is deleted, I can�t add a new account or change it for some reason, I get an error when I try that. Is there any fix for this?
I would like to know how can I update my android 1.6 to android 2.0? I have been using these phone for less than 1 month and I still don't have the idea how to update it..
I'm trying to download my music but WP8 uses the Windows Phone App client in Windows 8. Wll, when I tried connecting my phone, it says "Your phone is having troubles" error message. The instruction says to power off the phone. But no luck. Tried searching MS community but nothing there (but I won't rule out I didn't search well. Also, I posted the same question there and waiting for a response.)
for some reason my Hero isn't receiving text messages. I have updated the PRL, Profile, and checked for firmware updates.. no luck. Do you think it possibly needs to be reprogramed? This is the second odd thing that has happened with my phone. First was it resetting itself back to the theme, and layout I had a week prior. I woke up and everything was changed back like someone did it.
I would like to open a .pls , wich is a streaming radio I ried with my friend's iphone, work well.Mine? Reader doesnt support this media.. is there another mp3 player or reader that I can use for reading mp3 and streaming radio?
