Hi everyone.
I am an Android rookie, but i am trying to learn more and more each day.
I bought recently a HTC Hero from optimus operator (Portugal) - Orange - and it came with 1.5 version of the OS. There is original 2.1 version but not for my operator.
I already made an goldcard for it, removed simlock, and rooted (do i think is not ok because installed titanium backup pro and i try to have root acess - allow on SU - and i got an error from the app, saying it had not root acess) but now i would like to know step by step what to do?
what rom (original and generic) should i install to have 2.1?
How to do it, with goldcard inside cellphone?
It is possible to go back?
I have read in Q&A that some orange phones, whem the debranding is done, loose the network due to some radio network imcompabilities... how can i know if that is or is not my case?
I would be greatful for all the help someone could give me.
Many thanks

I am hoping yours is a GSM HERO (there is CDMA HERO which Basically for the USA)

Have a look at some of this Threads

Try to Install ADB on your Pc It will save you a lot of hassle and make life easy for you
also if you have adb installed you can reroot anytime if you unroot by mistake. so do search for ADB and stuff on google or this forums
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=757233
IF you have already rooted
Make sure you do a NAND BACKUP by going into your recovery before flashing any roms
You can flash anyrom you like from the DEVELOEMENT SECTION in this forums
Elelinux's ROMS are really nice but its all upto your choice.
Here is a list of some radios for HERO

anymore Questions Do ask there are lot of helpful people around XDA )
Was a perfect NOOB when I joined
You don't need the goldcard anymore if you have rooted your device. If you did and you also have a recovery flashed (i prefer amon RA recovery) you should do a nandroid backup like tfn said and then you can flash any rom you want .. you have to try different roms to get the best for you i think but you should try cronos 2.2, villain 13 or elelinux.
You can find all roms on my page: http://chulak.de/hrdb/index.php?site=a21
Hi,.
Thanks for the hints.
First doubt, phone rooted or not (SU)?
with phone connected to pc, with adb....
"adb shell"
"su"
and a get the "#" sign instead of the "$". so i shoukd have the device rooted.
But i installed titanium backup pro (think version is 3.7.6)... run allow root acess ... and the i receive the message that the software can not have root acess and it needs it to run without errors .... so rooted or not rooted?
is there another way to test without damaging phone?
I prefer the "original" HTC roms instead of the mooded ones, i think they should be more reliable.
Found out the radio on my phone is 63.18.55.06FU_6.35.07.08 ... is it compatible with the other HTC roms, or it should be changed ... and in that case is it compatible with the phone itself?
Again thats for all the help.

Boas,
Eu também comprei um Hero da Optimus. Mas ao contrário de ti paguei pelo unlock code no site www.unlocking.com (12€). Consegui desbloquear o bicho e depois quis remover o 1.5 pois além de limitado é mais lento que as versões 2.x
Assim usei o que me pareceu ser o melhor guia para rooting e para instalar a custom rom. É da autoria do btdag e foi extremamente fácil e rápido:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=645253
Portanto sacas esses ficheiros, pões na raiz do SD e executas os passos.
Depois disso fazes o wipe das caches e tal e passas a rom .zip para a raiz do SD card e através da recovery mandas flashar, 2 ou 3 minutos depois já tens a custom rom. Neste momento estou a usar a rom do robocik, a RCmix:

Hi,
I also bought a Hero Optimus. But unlike you paid for the unlock code on the site www.unlocking.com (12 €). I managed to unlock the phone and wanted to remove the 1.5 as well as limited is slower than the 2.x versions

So bags these files, you put the root of the SD and run the steps.
After that you do wipe the caches and such raisins and the rom. Zip to the root of SD card and through the recovery mandas flashing, 2 or 3 minutes after you already have a custom rom. Right now I am using the rom robocik the RCmix:

Obrigado.
Mas também é valido para as roms oficiais?
E pode-se "voltar" atras?
E acerca dos rádios ... isso é que me deixa confuso...
No post que indicas diz que não são "fixos" a uma região, simplesmente escolhe-se o ultimo - já agora, qual é, tendo em conta que é um da optimus / orange?
Agradeço desde já a ajuda.

Thanks,
is it valid for "oficial" roms (RRU) ? And is it reversible?
About radio update, that lets me confused, the post you mentioned says that they are not region conneted, simply we should choose the latest - by the way which the one is it, taking in account that i have an optimus/orange hero equipment.
Thanks again for the help,

NAND +ext backup error
Hy.
Trying to do a NAND+ Ext backup.
Installed recovery-RA-hero-v1.7.0.1.img ok, and rebooted in recovery.
But when i choose the backup choice, it starts ok , says performing backup, the "...." starts, but after 2 min or so it gives me an error, and says "Error : Run 'nandroid-mobile.sh' via adb!
PLEASE ADVISE.
Many thanks,

Hi, did you installed 2.3 on htc hero? Or you keep the 2.1 official?
I am trying to install in a HTC Hero Optimus the 2.3.3 Sense but with no sucess...
hi. Only now i saw your question.
I still have the nazgulled rom based on the 2.1 oficial but with root. Works ok but camera seems a little fussy. Thinking of installing flykernel13 in orther to speedup phone. Also saw heroine++ rom 2.1 based and i am thinking of giving a try to this rom. Other seem to have some bugs or not being stable so no 2.3 rom.
Best regards

How can users help?
Do you need information give by a tool like Quick System Info?
É simples, tens no pplware como fazer. Basta desligar, ligar e carregar som para baixo. Entras em ftm o resto é com o pc.
Sent from my tmn smart a7 using xda premium
Hi.
I'm a bit disapointed: before I buy the phone, I take a look to online manual. The information there is 512Mb ROM and 512Mb RAM. But veryfing this with Titanium Backup, I have 230Mb for ROM and 170Mb for internal memory. So, we have a 400Mb ROM. And on TaskManager, it informs only 160Mb free RAM. With this, I believe the chip has 256Mb SHARED memory, and 160Mb free to user...
Yours phones have this issue, too? These specs (400Mb ROM and 160Mb RAM) ara TOO SMALL for a today cellphone!
Also, I don't have any CPU/GPU speed or model information yet... Do you have?

lg optimus l3 help please memory/error 401...
Hi there
Not sure if this is the right thread or not but my 14yr old autistic son is having problems with his lg optimus l3 and I am hoping someone may be able to help me help him sort it...
For some reason his phone is throwing an error 401 message at him everytime he tries to do something... he also has the low disk space/memory symbol at the top of his screen.
He has deleted most of his apps and cleared caches etc but hes getting nowhere. I tried looking at it for him yesterday but no joy he ant even download antivirus software due to lack of space xx money is non existant so I cant buy him another phone or pay to get it fixed :'( xx hope someone can help please xx xx
For all those with this problem. Firstly download Faramaroot and install it and try the methods to exploit to install SuperSu. Link:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2130276
After you get root download Link2SD from Google Play and you need to make another partition on your Sd Card (ext 2 format) then you can link any application to sd card. (search on google on how to make another partition and how to use Link2SD). Good luck.

This fails. The screen just stays black forever until i eventually hit the power button again to reboot it.
