can't update firmware on my cdma hero

I have been trying now for almost a fully day to update my hero. I was receiving error 67s and then error 1012. I have been on the phone with customer call all this morning and they tried to reset my phone from the network. Then i was locked out of any data on my phone until the manger corrected my AAA password. Now I can still browse the internet and use other data required applications, but my phone still does not see the new firmware update. Has anyone else had similar problems?

I have 2 stock Sprint Hero phones that I have been trying to update that get stuck at 11% when downloading. Went to my local sprint store and they said it was a problem with the network in our area, North Louisiana.
I used the FRESH 0.4 rom on mine and everything is great.

Yep - I've been getting error 1012 all day. It doesn't even see the update. My Hero is stock rom and not rooted yet. I was waiting to see what kind of updates Sprint and HTC would push before rooting.
**edited i'm in oregon fwiw

whats the firmware version currently? I heard rummers it has something to do with having the early productions that ended in 1.22 instead of 1.29. Mine was a 1.22 as I got it before the official launch. I used the ruu with the launch software and the OTA update went thru with no issues

Dunno - I am looking at software version: 1.29.651.1
build is: CL69164

okay that is the launch release software version. do you get error 1012 when getting on the internet? do you have wifi turned on? Try it with the wi-fi radio off. if you cant get on browser then go to update profile. If you still get error 1012 then you could contact sprint or try doing a data restore the code is ##3282# and you need the msl

Same problem.
Running Software version starting with 1.29
My wifi radio is off, everything else works perfectly I just can't get the update.

I am no expert on this by any means but...
I had rooted mine and it would never even receive the update. Then I ran the RUU utitlity which takes it back to "right out of the box" stage.
Then I was able to get the update immediately. Try that

I did a reboot was able to apply the update. YMMV.

Tethering issue with Hero

Hi all, I've followed the instruction of rooting the Hero and everything looks fine. When I try to run the wireless tether for root user and I am unable to get it working.
kernel - 2.6
build number - 1.56
software - 1.56
firmware - 1.5
If I installed version Wireless Tether 1.6, it starts fine but my labtop only see ad hoc, not wifi router. Any other version will give me an error stating unable to start WTFR, please try again. Any idea why this is happenning? How do I know if my phone is rooted properly? TIA.

That coz jpm doesnt have your apn setting it seems. Once you do a factory reset and if your firmware doesnt have your apn settings you will have to set them in the settings.

[Q] Cannot connect to 2.4GHz WiFi

Hi,
I purchased a used S4 recently, when I first unboxed the phone it connected to my home network just fine and WiFi was working great. After running the OTA update (I know it was dumb, but I my mind was numbed by the shiny new phone), I could no longer connect to my home network, and could only see a few of the nearly 20 networks I could see before the update.
After a lot of experimenting, I finally figured out that I simply could not see any 2.4 GHz networks on my phone! I can connect fine to 5 GHz networks and they work well, but I can't even see the 2.4 GHz networks. Any ideas on how I can fix this? I've tried searching the XDA forums and Googling the issue without much luck. Here's the closest thing I've found.
I'm a software engineer with some background in hardware, so I don't have any problems doing any kind of software or possibly even hardware mods to get it working. For completeness, I've detailed all the steps I've taken so far:
0. (First unboxed the phone, WiFi worked normally I was happily connected to my network)
1. Ran OTA update
2. WiFi quit working (displayed above symptoms)
3. Rooted phone (towelroot) and installed safestrap (3.7.2) following the last section of this post. - Issue persisted
4. Installed SHOstock ROM - Issue persisted
5. Followed entire Odin/stock re-flash using the same link above - When the phone first turned on after the NB1 install, it picked up my network. I thought this was an indication that it was going to work so I continued following the guide
6. Updated to NC1 - issue returned
7. Used Odin to restore phone to NB1 again - same issue
8. Realized only 5 GHz networks show up
9. Ran through complete re-install and am currently rooted with safestrap running LightRom v13 with the NC1 modules installed
10. Installed this WiFi band switcher. Whenever I switch to 5 GHz or auto I can see and connect to 5 GHz networks. When I switch to 2.4 GHz nothing shows up and when I hit scan it acts like it's not doing anything.
