yes i did the unlockr.com method.

what i did was root using the following method.



and use this method to use 1.5 ROM

How To: Load a Custom ROM on Your HTC Hero | The Unlockr


donw load the 1.5 rom from here:
http://android.modaco.com/content/htc-hero-hero-modaco-com/292018/02-09-1-5-modaco-custom-hero-rom-is-here/

i would advised dont even trying to update radio as i had so much trouble updating radio update so i am using the radio update which was shipped with the phone i'll wait for HTC update that automatically over the air.

i am on orange when load the 1.5 orange logos and bookmarks was gone..
apart from the everything exactly the same and couple of extra apps in the where u can adjust font settings of ur phone as well as the window open speed and stuff.


camera .. now you can touch on the screen to do auto focus instead camera does it automatically in the original rom.. its like iphone 3gs u can touc the screen where u like camera to focus on.
yes APN settings was delete but was easy to put them pack just going to settgins and add new apn which is orangeinternet to access the internet..


Note: when you do update to 1.5 make sure do the backup then wipeout then install sd card update zip...
but boy it is FAST.
