No data on Cupcake? - G1 General

Hey everyone right now i have an unlocked g1 i use with AT&T and ever since i tried to use a rom based on cupcake it wont let me use the data when i create a new apn.
Ive Tried The Dudes 1.2b and the ion rom, has anyone else had this problem or know how to fix it?
Or am i just doing something wrong?
Let me know =)

I think with cupcake, you can only store APN's with MMC and MNC settings of your current (sim's) country only

unlocked from t-mobile no internet access on vodafone

Hello -
I just bought an unused t-mobile HTC Hero.
I unlocked it for use on vodaphone.
Everything works fine except that I cannot use the mobile network - although it is apparently enabled in the phone, any attempt to access internet etc fails, saying "this application requires network access".
NB: access is fine using wi-fi.
Support at vodafone suggested a rom upgrade. ROM Download refused by HTC website (upgrade n/a for my phone's S/N, it said)
are the two issues related and how should I resolve them???
S/N (HT98SL903000)
build number: 1.76.110.6146733 CL47212 release keys.
many thanks,
alex
Have you checked the APN settings?
Regards,
Dave
Search for the vodafone ROM on the XDA-DEV Hero Wiki. Or google...
Or, just check youve got vodafones APN settings and not t-mobiles (like foxmeister said)

Thanks for that.
I will follow all of the suggestions.
One point though _ If it needs rom as well as correction of APN - is it worth considering a custom rom instead of getting tangled with vodafone?

Vodafone don't carry the Hero, so there is no Vodafone specific ROM for the Hero.
You've got a T-Mobile branded device with a 1.76 build on it, so my advice would be a MoDaCo ROM, or if you don't want a custom ROM, a generic HTC ROM. If you upgrade to the latest T-Mobile ROM, you'll end up with the "perfect" SPL meaning you'd have to downgrade via a goldcard before you could replace the ROM with something non-T-Mobile.
Regards,
Dave
Thanks again.
I now have internet access having sorted the APN. Much happier now (I got anxious cos the phone I bought in a box from another phone -- bearing the wrong serial number, IMEI etc )
but I'm attracted to the ROM change.
Is there a particular MoDaCo ROm that i should go for that wil allow the usual apps to be run alongside some level of compatibility with outlook and MS word etc?
cheers,
Alex

Well, head to http://hero.modaco.com and have a look. There will be a full version (3.1 IIRC) available free, and a beta of the next one (3.2beta5 IIRC) for paid members.
Try the free one, and if you like it, you might like to donate to Paul to keep him going. Also, that will get you access to his 'kitchen' to make your own custom ROM from the modaco base, but adding and removing things you don't want etc.
But there's really only 1 modaco custom rom (aka MCR), just make sure you get the right one (GSM/CDMA) so GSM for you I reckon.

ROOTING! Whats the worst that can happen?

I know absolutely nothing about rooting, radio's and flashing ROM's... But I feel compelled to root my phone an run a custom ROM. I'm a bit (a lot) afraid to screw up my phone like I've read a few places that people didn't have signal cuz of the radio they installed!
I know that there's no Telus official ROM and whatever RUU is, available so what can I do to unroot and go back to what I use now as rom and everything else???
Anyways, what's the worst that can happen once rooted???

Ok I downgrade my phone, now on RUU 2.73.405.5 but I can't connect to the internet using my network??? what do to?
The worst that can happen is that you get a very expensive brick...

You've probably lost your APN settings. Two things you can do here.
1) Search for the APN settings for your carrier, or post your carrier in the forums and someone will post them for you. (Although, I'm assuming you're on Telus... give me a few minutes and I'll find a thread with the Telus APN settings.)
or 2) Now, install a custom Recovery Image (Amon's Recovery 1.6.2 can be found in the Hero Android Development forum), then flash a custom ROM which includes a large APN list. Although, AFAIK, Telus isn't included in any of the custom ROMs... so you're back at step 1.
EDIT: Here are the Telus APN settings: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4897152&postcount=14
You can edit them from Home -> Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names
(At least that's how you do it in an Eclair ROM... I forget the exact menu items for a Cupcake ROM.)

You know what, after all the custom ROMs i installed, i never had the APN re-configured, however, with the last 2 i installed (BeHero and Villain5.2) after the initial setup, i power cycled the phone (pulled out battery for 2mins) and the APN got pushed back to the phone.
Anyways, its always handy to have that APN written down but im starting to think after the phone gets registered, upon a reboot it gets pushed to the phone!

And about if you ever want to unroot, just install an official RUU. Telus will release an official one when they release 2.1
I wouldnt do it, because we don't know how hard/complicated its going to be to root a device using 2.1 yet. Once the official rom is released, its gonna be a question of hours before a Dev will release a new build with the ''official'' base software to make it a fully functioning rom
Thanks for all the help guys, I really appreciated... It's all done now, I rooted my hero without any problem. I've also completed a Nan Droid backup and saved it to my computer cuz I know I'll screw something up soon! LOL Now I'm just all confused cuz I'm a retard when it comes to flashing custom ROM's ( meaning I have no clue which one to flash) any advices?
It just need to be stable, better then Telus 1.5 and not to complicated.
Cheers

Get VillainRom 5.2. It's running 2.1 with Sense. So far it's the best 2.1 rom out there. It will get laggy at some times, bear with it, they all do. Because the current 2.1 rom don't have the correct kernel and that will come with the official release.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=654030
And once the official release is out, wait a few hours for them to release a better version
I've PM you there KriEv. just need a few pointers again... lol
SD Card
Hey guys one more question. I"ve loaded Vilain ROM 5.2 and I love it.. My question is can I put another SD card in my phone or I have to keep the one I created a gold card with? Or can I create another GoldCard and put that one in, I used the 2gb one that Telus gave me with the phone but I want to use a 8gb...

You can exchange it
What's the worst that can happen?
Well a couple of days ago this guy in Iceland was trying to root his Hero when it started smoking. Now there's an enormous cloud over much of Europe which is stopping 1000's of flights. Be very careful.
hmmmmmm bricks
?
I exchanged my card but had trouble mounting it on my computer, it appears to work for now! Since I'm new to this any files I should keep on my SD card in case something wrong happens? I've kept my NanDroid backup but nothing else.
What would be the steps to take if I wanted to go back to the ROM I had before loading VillainROM 5.2

thx guys, any other suggestion for a 2.0 or 2.1 ROM that doesn't have Sense that wouldn't drain my battery in half a day? lol
cheers
HTC Hero, running VillainROM 5.2
I'd suggest giving this one a go, was good to me but I missed the SenseUI too much lol

Have you checked that the APN settings are correct? Go to settings>more (under wireless and network)>mobile network>APNs and either make sure the correct ones for your network have been set or create a new one with the correct settings. If you need to create a new one, you can get all of the info you need either from the internet or by calling your carrier and asking for them. I've found that the SIM Toolkit built in to CM doesn't work for me, but you can try it anyway.

Have you gone into settings>wireless>mobile networks and searched for networks. What happens when you do that? I had a similar problem with a JB rom. The rom just would not see the network. Nothing. Said error searching for networks. I flashed other ROms and they all worked ok. It was something specific with that ROM and my phone what was not happy. A different ROM sorted it out. I am too new to know where the signal loss is.
