I didn't need HTC Sync to install the update
I was having problems trying to install HT Sync so that I could do the ROM upgrade to Hero_2.73.405. I don't remember the errors I was getting, but after a lot of googling I found a post which said, in effect, you don't need HTC Sync installed, you just need the SD Card drivers (which for me installed themselves pretty much automatically the first time I connected the Hero to the PC). It was a few days ago, and I didn't make notes, but as I remember:
a: the USB connected notification should be showing on the Hero
b: the card is not mounted
c: the "USB debugging" checkbox in Settings / Applications / Development is checked
d: run the downloaded ROM Upgrade Utility from the PC
Actually this suits me fine as I don't use Outlook so I have no use for HT Sync. Hope this helps
Regards
Pete
