I am looking to trade my Samsung Moment for an HTC Hero. My phone is like new, no defects, problems, drops, scrapes or scratches. I have applied a clear skins. I still have the original box & all included accessories. I would like to swap for the same thing in an HTC Hero. I live near Memphis, TN and would prefer a FTF swap, but if your not in my area, please contact me with your questions.

Thanks
 
I originally got a HTC Hero and it had major problems. I took it back and got a Samsung Moment. They said I can not exchange my phone again even if it is in the 30 day period.

can I ask why your going back to the hero? I'm getting a moment on moday and I'm still having a REALLY tough time deciding between the two. I had my mind made up on a Hero, but Radioshack doesn't carry the hero yet, and the manger said I could try out the moment till they start carrying the hero. You're one of the only people I've heard that is starting with a hero, trading for a moment, and going back to a hero. Dont wanna hikack your thread, so if you wanna PM me, it would be greatly appreciated.

My hero I got first had problems. 10-15 sec camera delay, obviously the battery drain & gps problems. I loved the sense ui and the feel of the phone. When I took it back the lady said I should get the Moment. I played with it in store and I liked it. I do still like it. There are just certain features I like better on the Hero...mainly the sense ui and the htc widgets. Both phones are great.

Just in case you can't find a swap. Have you tried Ahome or OpenHome? They get you part of the way to Sense UI, 2.0 (when we get it) should take you the rest of the way. While you can't change the Heros smaller size factor, you also can't change the Moments speed, keyboard and screen advantages. Everything else will change and change again over the next year.

Yes, I have Open home and love it. Changing to 3,5 or 7 screens is great. I really miss a few other features from the Hero. Mostly I miss the cal widget, where you can scroll through contacts on your home screens and dial from a photo. I have DialFavs, but it is not even close to the same. I also miss the pairing of my contacts to their FB pages. I know these might seem minor, but I miss those features.

Can there features be added to my phone?

When Android 2.0 comes to Moment, you will get social network integration.

Also I'm sure there is a widget for the other things

I just can't imagine going back to Hero *shudder* just for the stuff you mentioned...
