    Cardio Trainer Problem

    Hi I'm having a problem with Cardio Trainer, I want to post my tracks to Facebook from my Desire but it will not post, I found a fix that says uninstall and reinstall the Facebook app obviously that's not possible with my phone. I removed the permissions on Facebook and then granted them back...

    Flash 10.1

    Well we've done 2.1 to death so it feels like a good time to start a new thread on Flash 10.1 :) Will we see Flash 10.1 on the Hero? If not, why not? My limited understanding is the chipset won't support Flash 10, not forgetting the antiquated 1.5 can't/won't run Flash 10. Thoughts...

    Screen Not Rotating.

    I've searched around but I cannot find an answer, I'm sure someone here will know. When I switch on the phone the screen rotates as normal, browser, messaging ect. Everything is normal BUT this only works once and then it never rotates until I switch off my phone and turn it back on, then...

    O2 and Tethering

    I'm moving back to O2 with an unlocked Hero or Legend. I've been using Orange for the last 6 months, will I still be able to tether on O2 using a pay as you go simplicity sim? I couldn't tether with my iphone. I haven't used it much on Orange but it is quite handy if you want to type a long...

    Replacement phone on the way...help please.

    Orange are kindly sending me a new phone because of the screen being raised up on the right hand side. Quality service by Orange. Does anybody have a checklist of what I should do to back the phone up before I factory reset it? I'm bound to miss something. Thanks in advance Al

    Open Home & Widgets

    I installed Open Home this week on my Hero running 1.5. I can't seem to put any of the stock widgets on my Open Home screens. Maybe I'm doing something very stupid, which wouldn't surprise me, but is it possible to use the stock calendar or music widgets? Thanks in advance Al

    A Tech Question.

    Please bear(bare?) with me I'm not the greatest at explaining what I actually mean when it comes to tech stuff. Here goes, when I switch on my Hero for some unknown reason I always check to see what the figure is(RAM?)on my task manager/tasKiller widget thingy. It's always around 110-117max...

    Better Keyboard Question

    Is it possible to teach Better Keyboard my words? I'm getting very frustrated, even the simple words like my name Al turns into Alp and I don't always catch it before I send mail or a message. The stock keyboard seems to manage it. Thanks in advance Al or perhaps Alp EDIT - I've found the...

    Cable Problem

    I have a small problem with my USB cable and I wondered if anybody had the same. The cable is actually coming away from the end that goes into the phone! I can see bare wires. The phone still charges and I can stick a bit of tape around it to cover it up, but I've only had the phone 4 months...

    Better Keyboard App

    I thought I would highlight this wee app for anybody who's having trouble with the stock keyboard. I was thinking about getting rid of my Hero because I really can't stand the stock keyboard, luckily my friend had downloaded the Better Keyboard App, and I had a go on his Hero, what a...

    Formatting SD Card

    I've had a search around but I couldn't find an answer. If I format my SD card what exactly do I lose? I'm not too bothered about pictures and music because I can back them up, or apps either because I've never paid for one. So is it safe to just go ahead and format? It's the bog standard SD...

    My Battery Life Experiment.

    I'll start a new thread if that's ok. I carried out a little experiment over the last couple of days. I switched off my Hero, fully charged it off the wall socket & switched it back on. I left WiFi on, GPS on, Mobile Internet on. I did my usual browsing, email(15-20), messaging(dozens)...

    HTC Hero for a week

    Hi All I've just moved over from the darkside, like a lot of people I was seduced by the iphone, it's fancy touch screen, ipod, apps, email, browser...and the rest. Nearing the end of my 18 month contract I asked if I'd have to pay for the new 3GS next time round(I've been an O2 customer for 10...
