Hi you guys.
I finally took the step to order me an Android-based-phone, and after days with reading on the internet I decided to buy a HTC Hero. Everyone was "splurgeing" this phone up in the skies.
I hope my choice wasn't a bad one?! (Actually I think Motorola Droid is a great phone, but it wont be available in Norway tho )
As i have understood the Android 2.0 ROM will be available for HTC Hero trough HTC soon. Anyone know the date(s)? I live in Norway, but have bought the English version.
Is there any other Custom ROMs that will be interesting to try out? If yes - which one?
Im also wondering;
- Is the email function good? Does it support HTML-mail, IMAP and other email-accounts than GMail?
- Is there any equal app to MyPhone? (sync app)
- MSN messenger client?
- Is it possible to use the phone without HTC Sense? (but I think i wouldn't)
Thank you in advance,
Joachim

Hey Guys! I am using the EzHero 5.1 (Android 2.1 Eclair) and I am wondering that HTC Sync doesn't find my phone. What do I have to do, to make it work? Or ist it impossible?

HTC Sync is HTC special software, and as such is only available in the Sense ROMs.
I too use HTC Sync a lot, and that is why I have not been able to move to Froyo: there are no 2.2 ROMs with Sense for Hero :-(
As for you case (Eclair) you will easily find another Sense ROM (VillainROM for example) and that will support HTC Sync
I have investigated how to get HTC sync to run on non-HTC ROMs, but so far, not managed (if anyone knows how to please let us know...)
Hope this helps
Okay thX! Means that I have to change the ROM. Or is there any other program like HTC Sync that supports the Hero? That would be great! I don't want to flash again... ;-)
Why do you need HTC Sense - that's what i'm wondering. You can do most of it just be file transfers. Contacts is another issue but converting them to gmail contacts isn't difficult IMO. Also programs such as Songbird and other media management tools should recognize the devise.
I am an android user myself on htc desire. Friend of mine gave me dell streak and asked if I would be able to load rom with polish language. Is something like that available? I can't seems to find one. Also the phone is supposedly factory unlocked but it used to be on uk O2. If I root the phone, could I lose the unlock? I have done root on my desire but my was never locked so I'm not sure. Last question what is the status of rooting on streak? Can it be done on froyo?
Thank for any answers.

Hi,
I am using Streak 5 imported from UK with Android 2.2.2 version and it does have Polish language, the only problem is lack of Polish letters on the virtual keyboard - they appear on the screen when I get SMS, or type them in to the phone book using my PC connected, but I have not found the possibility to input them directly on the phone. My one is unlocked, I have not tried Gingerbread yet, so I do not know if it has Polish, from Polish forum I just found out the korean release has only 2 options - Korean or English.
Being an English speaker/writer I have not had occasion to use other languages, but I do see that some replacement keyboards do offer other languages.
Doing a search in the Android market turned up this keyboard.
Hello,
I would like to ask if there is a way to enable the notifications tab in the Friend stream on Wildfire? I saw on htc site in the how tos section that the Friend stream does have the notifications tab (the Bell icon), but I don't have it on my Wildfire. Thus I'm curious if there is a way to somehow enable it?
Thank you very much in advance.
Hi, i was looking for that too but so far i didnt find the answer i guess this option is available on new fs so for now on i advice to check e-mail notification @fb site then when something is goin on @fb u will get e-mail push notification.

Ok thanks for the confirmation - now at least I know that I didn't break anything ;-)
Anyone have a solution to this? I am hoping for this too!
It does appear friend stream has been updated in newer phones. I bet/hope roms (I use Magnolia 1.3.2) will bake this newer app into the framework. It will make it very easy!
Hello Guys!
Been a while since I last been around xda or android so therefore I have a question!
I bought a HTC Flyer in the US, at Bestbuy. Now I'm from Denmark and therefore I would like it on Danish. I got the keyboard on Danish and I can ofc live with English language, however I would like to give it the last 1% toward the 100 of a perfect tablet experience.
I can't choose Danish under the language selection, so is there a way to get Danish. Maybe by getting the EU Version of Android 2.3.3? By rooting or shall I just give up, because it's now possible?
On forehand, thanks
I have the exact same problem with my HTC Flyer. I am Greek but Greek language is nowhere to be found in it. Even my Samsung Galaxy S (which still runs on android 2.2) has Greek!
I contacted HTC support and they told me to look at the Market for an add-on!! I specificaly asked the following question:" Do you mean Greek Keyboard OR Greek system menus? Because i do have a Greek Keyboard." The answear was "Greek system menus". I then searched the Market but i did't find any such app or add-on. Didn't contact HTC support again.
Get morelocale2 from android market
Can change system UI language

Cheers mate! Works out for me, found Danish and it just works!
- Try it out SpartanWarrior, Greek is there too!
Thanks, did the trick for me Portuguese
Can someone help me please?
Before Mango update i got installed on my HTC Mozart attentive phone app, after update i can't find it. There is no such app anywhere . Is the problem at my phone or it is not only me ?
Hello,
If HTC Mozart attentive phone app is the app that ive you the opportunity to modify the way that the phone ring (hiher level if its in the pocket...), i think that you will find that under "parameters" (for me it's the last entry).
Hope it's what's you are looking for!!
yep...it might have integrated to the new version's setting options.
enter "setings",maybe you can find it now.
Hallo,
thank you for your answers , but i still can't find that in "settings". Can you please tell me more details about where i can find this kind of settings for my ring ?
Thank you
