Hello,
I recently acquired a HTC Hero from Malaysia and its ROM version is 2.73.728.5 which I assume is the South East Asia release.
The problem with that ROM is that it doesn't have the Marketplace app and has support for Chinese characters (which I don't need).
I would like to install an English language ROM (with all the latest features, patches, fixes) which also has the Marketplace app.
Can anyone suggest a ROM which I should install?
Thanks in advance.
I believe Modaco's custom ROM is very good.
Or you could install the latest official World Wide RUU. You can find it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=559622

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. Does Modaco's custom ROM have the Sense UI? If yes, where can I get it?

OK, is there any simple to follow instructions about installing the MoDaCo ROM from a Linux machine?
Also, what are these "radio" files that I hear about? Why should I install one of those?
No. You cant flash without first flashing recovery. Madaco Roms are not RUU but rooted roms as update zip.
If you want to go root way please read stickies.
Hi everyone
Hate to ask a stupid question... but here it comes:
If I go and root my Hero and install a custom rom (2.0 or 2.1 ?)
Can I then still install the original rom when HTC releases there 2.1 version next month ?

In short yes.
Installing an official update will wipe absolutely everything on your phone.
It may be hard to root again if you do that though so it might be best to wait for a rooted version of the official rom (should be out about the same time as the official one)
So it will not disable my ability to install the original version again if I root now ??
Have never tried to root yet

You will be able to install the official rom if you have a rooted phone.
the issue might come, te root your phone after the update from HTC though....
Hey,
I Sold my HTC Hero, and the buyer wants the official Rom. i know the latest official rom by htc was an 2.1 version, since i installed an unofficial rom, i cant reset it back to the deafault rom, so is there any way i can get the official HTC rom back on my hero?
Thanks in advance

Hi Guys,
I am about to do the rooting of my I9100 , so I wonder, if I do rooting, will I still have option for Official Software Update, or I will lose it?
Thx
If it is a stock rom yes, official Software will still be there.
if it is a custom rom the answer is no.

Just to clarify for the OP, You can use a custom rom but if you wish to then do an official update you must flash a stock rom again via ODIN/Mobile Odin.
