    Help Camera Resolution Settings?

    Can someone explain the 5 different camera resolution settings to me and what's best for what picture? If it is set on 1M like my Hero was or the default resolution it is too large for texting. It always says too large and compressing. I can't find this info anywhere. Thanks, TC.

    Cracked My Hero/Sprint Fixed Free

    I've had my Hero going on 11 months now. Carried it in cases and naked. Not one drop. I'm very careful with it. Sunday it was naked. I was walking across the kitchen and it slipped out of my hand and landed face down on the ceramic tile. It had 4 chips and the screen was cracked. I'm just weeks...

    Got Hero-Skip Evo-Buy Sabor?

    I clicked on a link today by jarnold which took me to a short review of the Sabor by OZCARguide. I wasn't aware of the htc Sprint Sabor. I was just thinking about holding on to my wonderful Hero and waiting on something like the Sabor. By the time I'll get the Evo it will probably be outdated...

    Who's Using The Body Glove???

    First of all, yes I've read everything on the other threads about cases. The only problem I've had with the Hero in six months is settling down on a case. I've done naked, eBay cheapies, Sprint silicones, Otterbox, and now the Sprint Body Glove. No Seidio though. I like the way it feels kind of...

    Accessories Still Case Confused After 5 Months

    Me and my wife have had our Hero's going on 6 months now. She has had a cheap hard red eBay case and has never wanted to change. Me on the other hand stays confused. I've tried those cheap hard eBay cases, the Sprint silicone 2 pack, the Otterbox, and the Body Glove. I still have them all. Never...

    Camera Lense Cover Question

    I've been reading a lot on protecting the camera lense on the back cover. My question is: is that the actual camera lense? On my Hero it is part of the back cover and just a cover for the actual camera lense. I have several backs for me and my wifes Hero's so I don't worry about it that much. We...

    Otterbox Silicone Plugs?

    I've had my first Otterbox Commuter case for my Hero now for five days. I was carrying it either naked or in a Sprint silicone case. I like the Otterbox but the charging port plug keeps working loose. It doesn't come all the way out but the front lip sticks up a little. I've tried putting in...

    Staying 1.5?

    Me and my wife both have 1.5 Heros. We really like them the way they are. If we upgrade they will be done at the Sprint store. Right now we're not upgrading which seems like a downgrade in some areas. Anyone else staying 1.5 right now? TC

    2.1 market Question

    My wife and I both have 1.5 Hero's. She replaced her's due to a chipped screen. At that time we both had Zagg screen protectors on. She dropped hers in the car and something went through the Zazz and chipped the screen. So much for the best screen protector. No more screen protectectors for us...

    What Bluetooth Do You Use?

    I would like to know what bluetooth you use with the Hero. I use one most of the time. I've been through several. I've been using a Blue Ant Z9i for the last 15 months so it moved from my Instinct to the Hero three months ago. Just wanting to change I purchased a Plantronics Voyager Pro a few...

    Turning Off GPS Consequences

    OK I've now found and use the bluetooth widget. What about the GPS widget? If I turn GPS off what will not work on my Hero? Please, I'm not a wiz at this and I am learning a lot from all of you. Thanks, TC

    Bluetooth and Battery Charge

    Can't find it on search. I just discovered the htc bluetooth widget. When out I use my Blue Ant headset extensively. At home it is off. Does turning the bluetooth off on the phone increase charge time? And why is my profile picture not showing on my posts? Thanks, TC.

    Naked Hero

    I've carried my Hero in cases and with two different screen shields. I'm the happiest when the phone is not in a case and will not use another screen shield. I really like the feel and slimness of the phone and the smoothness of the screen. I kind of appreciate it for what it is. Of course...
