Settings-Wireless controls-Mobile network settings-Enable always-on mobile-uncheck Settings-Data synchronisation-Google-uncheck both options under General sync settings
You can also add a new widget to your desktop too: Add a new widget > HTC widgets > settings > mobile data Turning this off will disable any mobile data connection. Enable it whwnever you want to get data access.
Cheers Leky hey Leky you aint too far from me, im in blackburn, i work in preston and have been over to bolton today, ive had full signal once, for about 5seconds, then back down to 1 / 2 bars...whats with the signal? ive had 2 people hang up on me because they say they cant hear me and or that the lines breaking up? is it a known issue or do i have a faulty moby
hey, have you got the latest phone update? Go to the HTC website, click support and look under the Hero if not. It might help with the poor signal, cos I get pretty good signal here on Orange (full bars right now). If that doesn't help it might be a faulty device. Oh, if you do need to run that update, bear in mind it will wipe the data off your phone, but you can get backup apps on the market if you need to backup contacts/apps/sms etc
yeh ive tried all this leky cheers, ive had a few more calls where people struggle to hear me, might be time to try a replacement
Well people, ive decided to keep my hero, I really do like it with the exception of the camera and battery . Il prob get a nexus off contract in about may time, got the gellcase, cracking buy 2quid on eBAy
update.... orange replaced my hero today, the speaker kept sounding like it had a tare in it, wow this 1 is so different, think its an older 1 than the 1 just returned, the screen is soo much rich, and so much faster (had to manually update the rom) and the sounds it wayyyyy better, cant beleive the differences, oh and i get a decent 3/4 bar connection 90% of the time
