The fresh 2.1.1 ROM is for the most part a very smooth experience. But making/receiving a phone call is a little frustrating. I end placing a call and then hanging up due to the lag. But this post would most likely get more attention in the root section of the forum. Unless of coarse all 2.1 android users are experiencing the same problem on the HTC Hero?

mine can be a little laggy but i haven't noticed anything that to me i would call unacceptable. now, if i'm out for a run and using tracker, and listening to some music...hahaha forget about it! the couple times i've gotten a call during one of those moments (and "run" means i may be walking a bit lol) it is basically impossible to answer the phone

I too have noticed a considerable lag mostly when making a call & when pressing End Call. But I also have some overall screen lag. Sometimes when I tap something either on one of the homescreens or keyboard, I have quite a good amount of lag that I didn't have until the 2.1 update

Does anyone know why this happened?

Thanks for starting this thread. If anything annoys me its the lag when receiving and making calls. I am happy with the 2.1 update but, its overall buggy. We waited all this time for a buggy update. I should rooted a long time ago. But I am happy with the new Market.

Weird thing happened to me today. I was finished with the call, and used the end hard key to get back to the dialer screen (the screen had dimmed) and touched the end call button on the screen. The button went black, like it was ending the call, but the call continued. I pressed the return hard key to get to my home screen, and in the not. bar, there was an icon for a call in progress. I swiped the not. bar down and went to the phone call from there, but the end call button was still black! I could not end the call. I had to shut the phone off to end the call. Anybody else have that happen?
I'm experiencing both the lag in dialing and some delay in hanging up since getting my update a few days ago. Not thrilled about the idea that the solution is do delete facebook, email & messaging widgets.
anyone else have ideas?
