Hey all! I'm so glad i found this community it looks awesome! I'm new here and to the HTC hero G2 AND to the droid OS for that matter so i will have some pretty noobish questions , i will try to make it easy and list them in order so if you could please respond that way it would make it a lot easier on this noob as well
I am in the USA so i don't know if that will make a difference but i see a lot of other countries names in updates.
1. My device is the G2 obviously and its unlocked and i use my local carrier Cincinnati Bell and i'm pretty sure my phone is stock everything as far as firmware and what not. I still have 1.5 and i'm seeing people talk about 2.1, some say a message will automatically appear for the update but will it work since i'm not on T Mobile? if not how do i go about getting this?
2. What other types of software are there you recommend every G2 should have or that i can update to my phone to make it better, faster and just all around great, how would i go about doing this?
3. i've noticed when i go to albums for some reason there are 5 different albums just for my pictures which were all already on my sd card, and on my old phone were all just under the same album. The same for videos too there is 3 different ones for those too. Why are they all being seperated and how do i just make one entire album for all photos and one for videos? i've plugged the USB into my computer and opened my sd card and have seen the folders for all my music and photos so could when i add particular artists music on just create my own folder and put each artists music in their own folder? would it show up like that on my music player as being seperate? and could i do the same for pictures?
I realize i have quite a decent amount of questions and i apologize but i am new to the G2 and Droid in general as i've stated and i love the experience so far and i want to gain as much knowledge as possible so big thanks to anyone who helps me!
THANKS!!!

What exactly did you think it was? This is a developer community.. not a help desk.
I myself am not a developer.. I have a very small and limited amount of knowledge regards android.
I come here because I pick things up.. and occasionally when I have a problem I ask a question BUT only in the hope that the great and the good of this community feel like they have time to answer it.
Sure I wish I could be more welcoming to you.. I really do hope your problem gets solved.
Just dont expect it to get handed to you.. for example.. most of your questions can be answered in the hero wiki.. which is one quick search away from discovery.
Your initial question was polite and well formed.. however to follow it up with that statement just shows that you were being very disingenuous.
Again.. I hope someone takes the time to answer your several questions.

I've searched for forums for the Hero G2 and this is one of the only ones with activity i found. So i signed up, yes i know this is a development forum but if someone has the knowledge to develop for such a phone then it became common sense to me they would know answers to the questions i had. I did not mean to seem "disingenuous", its from the fact of taking a post like my last to get a response is why i did so. I wish someone from the first few views could of either 1. Helped me or 2. Said what you said and suggested somewhere or something else to help.
I don't mean to sound like an ass, just would really like help so it would be GREATLY appreciated if someone tried at least :-/
Ok i'll use my first post as an attempt to be useful, if only because i've read a whole lot from here and as yet written nowt
Now, first things first, being in the states do you have the G2 gsm hero, the one with the chin, or the US cdma sprint version? Makes a big difference if you want to do rooting.
Information searching for the hero doesn't have to come from active forums, many were hugely active when the phone first arrived and may not be so now, but much of the content is just as useful/relevant as it was then.
Oh, and i'm neither a dev, or a programmer or a techy phone expert, pc expert or any other expert come to that, just a hero owner that started much like you. Knowing nothing
Regarding the official 2.1 update, have no idea how it might arrive at your device, or mine as i'm not interested. Mine is rooted 1.5 with modaco 3.2 and it works just fine (and stable/reliable) for me, and does pretty much all i need it to do. The only exception being maybe bluetooth transfer.
When i got my hero it was the latest all singing, all dancing device that shamed most if not all other smartphones, eventually rooting it made it better, and unless i get to upgrade it every 6 months to me that's the way it'll stay.
I might go for a custom 2.1 rom at some point, be warned the official upgrade removes that possibility for the future, and even if you don't think you'll want to now, you may well change your mind once you've had the phone a while
How are the files stored on your sd card now? Separate folders are displayed separately. Contacts, downloads, camera shots etc I guess you could put them all in one folder but the album has an "all pictures" option anyway so why bother.
All my albums are stored in folders, with artwork, and just drag and drop into the music or mp3, can't recall what it's called right now, folder and display as whole albums in the player. If i want to create a folder just for one artists tracks then again it will display that "album" separately.
Works fine for me as i'm a whole album person rather than using playlists.
Any combination is possible, trial and error and personal preference time, but you wont break anything by trying.
Finally, have google work for you, or you tube, there's a heap of good stuff around, and more applications than my failing keyboard can mention hence rooting and apps2sd has unlimited my app count. No more worrying whether i can fit in that latest market find or what i have to delete first.
new batteries time before i launch this keyboard.....
Thank you! for someone trying to help... i'll soak all that in kind person, and i have the one with the chin
So i cannot see any threads at all when the forum skin is set to 2010/13 and Beta. Couldn login in the Xperia section for da last couple of dayz regarding this specific matter..i ended up bored and frustrated and started clicking everywhere on the blank page. Ended up changing the forum look and walah! the posts are visible. SO, my question! Is the forum upgrading or what? Why wont the other skins work? Kinda got stuck with the classic screen..and..i gota say..its not that impressive :silly: so lemme know if anybody got anything to share on the behalf! Thanks :highfive:
I'd recommend you to ask this here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=276306&page=525
Ahh! Thanks m8 .. posting em right now, bdw..arent you having the same problem? Or the themes working well over at your side??? How you doing bdw?? Whats new?? :highfive:

"I got my values. So you can keep yours, OK?"
Working for me as well. Sounds like something on your end.

I obviously can see the baseband has changed but what I was asking being not as clued up as you lot was what does it mean?
But forget it. I can't take a joke and am too emotional to be on the internet.
Actually I'm a 48 year old father of two wonderful grown up boys,I have no nerdy inclinations at all, indeed before I was struck down by cancer I was a self employed gardener.
I now choose to spend a fair bit of my time helping people here, but if you are so uptight you can't take a little joke, then I suspect you have far more issues than me.
're. Your responses, I won't be attempting to help you any further young man.
Good day
Sadly,there is very little room for fun and sarcasm in this forum any more..
Smile and have a nice day slappy

Nice to see how much you searched before creating a new thread:

Please, look a bit before creating a new thread (this forum section is a bit stopped, but it doesn't mean there should be two threads of exactly the same thing)

If YOU look a bit closer, you will see that the thread you referenced (and which I read before posting) has not mentioned the "rumours" for a few weeks and has gone off-topic. I see no reason why I should not pose a simple question that maybe teases out a rumour or two. That's the fun and benefit of forums - to engage in conversation.
If you feel the need to make a point like this, a gentle nudge instead of sarcasm is much less offensive.

Yep. Sometimes I sound a bit rude... But the info stays exactly the same. The info there is exactly the same as here: May.

i wonder if it will be 4.4.2 we get which has some known bugs in, such as camera battery drain, or given that they have waited a long time to release it, if they will give us a newer version that has the bugs fixed?
Its coming on May ive heard

Dear people. Some of you may know or heard of my channel (link in signature). So Ive been recording rom reviews, fixes etc for lg g2 which I own. But I kinda run out of ideas I could always record more rom reviews but g2 is my daily driver and I cant keep wiping everything and flashing new roms. And also im not earning anything from youtube so I cant kinda buy another phone or something... I hope you understand. Now I recorded some app reviews but havent got much views on that and I wanted someone to recommend or if you have any problem questions etc I can record that step by step for you to understand. So if you have any ideas I would be more than happy to listen to them.
u can do gaming reviews, crusaders of light, wich i am playin for example
done that. but that video havent got so much attention as I expected... maybe I try it again
