Thank you everyone! - Hero CDMA General

I am moving to the EVO thread tomorrow... I just want to say thank you to all the amazing devs that put so much work into making the hero a better phone. This is a great community and I hope to see most of you over in the EVO thread.

So Long and Thanks for all the Fish

Well my trusty hero which I only had for a a couple of months bit the big one yesterday. I went to the Sprint Store to get another one and all they had in stock for Android was a Moment.
So I guess I won't be around here as much.
This community despite some squabbles is incredible. I've enjoyed and appreciated my time here and the help I got.
The moment isn't a bad phone, I just pretend I'm running DarchDroid.
With a keyboard.

Well we're gonna miss ya for sure! Hope you can deal with the Moment until you get our EVO (providing that is what you're going to next ) I know we'll see you around......
.....Now you should root the moment and port all our goodness to them You'll be a hero......haha.
The Moment was rooted before the official 2.1 was released. They have it easy. An earlier version of the Samsung software updater let you run unsigned tarballs. So you just use that to install a custom recovery and off you go.
btw, great reference for the title. was one of my favorite books WAAYYY before the movie, they did a HORRIBLE job with Zaphod
good luck you going to sdx?
I prefer to pretend that movie never happened.
Either of them.
Going to miss you gunnyman both here and Android central.. be well.

See ya gunnyman.... I hope those who get an evo will see you in the portal. Me however, I'll be in this ghostland of a Hero forum.
I'll be here with you for a while, Meng. Dropping $500 on a phone, even one as nice as the evo, just aint happenin for ol' tejas.

Argh I miss my Hero already. The themes, the ports of different roms. Just don't happen over there in SDX Land. Someone is working on a Sens UI port though. On the upside. Live Wallpapers work perfectly and so does the 3d gallery at the same time.

So wait they just gave you a moment instead, no questions asked? Im gonna try this today as my hero has been acting up and if i get a replacement it would be my 4th phone already. Sprint told me they hardly ever give you a different model phone.

Thank you all!!!

Hello people,
Sadly I had to give up my hero for evo 4g.
I thank all the developers who have created those great snappy ROMS for the hero.
Thank you all who have been supportive.
Still will be around the EVO Forums.
See ya people.

Well, at least for the EVO, there is work being done on that by toast and etc, obviously no ETA whatsoever, and anyone who expects there to be one is crazy, as just reading about the steps that are needed to do anything with it hurt my brain very, very badly. A bit of a bummer for sure, but I do not live in a 4G market anyway (I almost never use 3G anyway, wi-fi most places I go, only use 3G if I'm on the bus), so that's not a problem for me.

I have 4g, so I wouldn't use CM on any 4g phone until it works
In that case, good thing the Epic doesn't have CM or MIUI, ha
I'm super hesitant to upgrade to the Evo right now. I have my Hero with CM6 and love it and I have been looking through the Evo threads and I'm not sure I will like the Evo now. I can't even seem to find the best way to root it. I never thought I would say it but I don't wanna leave my Hero!

Hboot 2.02 S-Off Like a Boss Edition for the newer hardware revisions... it's almost as easy as rooting a hero using the old asroot method. Alot about an hour and half until you are running your final chosen rom (including time for nandroid backups et al)

Adios HTC Hero.....

Hey all,
Just thought I would inform you that my Epic 4g is officially ordered, and I will receive it in approximately one week. Not only do I want to thank everyone for their amazing support of me for my time on the hero forum, but I'd like to let you know what I will maintain while I'm gone in the Epic section. I WILL still maintain my Q&A section, and will look for questions in my Themes. I will not be releasing new versions of themes, however. If you all would like the themes ported for the latest versions of CM, feel free to do that I just want to let everyone here know that they've helped me develop as a themer and developer, and I will miss this section. And please, feel free to join me as an Epic user
Thank you all again,

My farewell to the Epic dev community

Hey everyone.
Well sadly, and happily the time has come for me to move on to another device. The epic, while having great potential just did not hit the mark. While many of you may disagree, etc, the truth is simple; The Epic4G had much more potential than Samsung/Sprint allowed it to have.
So now I say my farewell to the Epic dev community. I will still be around, and if you need to contact me you can do so via PM, or find me in IRC @ irc.freenode.net #G2x
As some of you know, I recently decided to switch carriers to T-Mobile, and I am getting a G2x. My new device arrives tomorrow, and I am quite excited to begin dev'ing on a new phone, with a lot more power.
Good luck to everyone, and I hope to see you on the other side
We're going to miss you. Thanks for all you've done.
Thanks Dameon you did SO much for this community

Thanks Dameon! Leaving with class and style! I like it. Maybe when the G2s hit Sprint you can throw together some stuff for us, even though I got awhile before I can upgrade.
Thanks for all you've done. Good luck with the new device.
thanks for all your work.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Have fun with the new device.
I've read reviews on it, and it looks to be plagued with battery life issues and random reboots on stock. So I'm sure you'll make that community very happy with fixes.
Talk about a traitor!
I'm jking dude. I'm sure there was a logical reason behind you switching to tmo, even though you will be an AT&T customer with their outrageous prices.
Just saying.
Take care

Hey, great choice man!
I personally, don't like HTC phones (I don't know why, just a dislike, I've had a MyTouch 4G, and a G2, and for some reason, I don't like them), and have ordered the Samsung Galaxy S 2.
It sucks that I'll have no 3G (doesn't matter), but I'll have an AMAZINGLY fast phone. ^^
Have fun, I heard the Sensation is an amazing phone.
How can you use a phone with a crappy LCD after using AMOLED?
have a good one man, enjoy your new phone!
The first 4.3-inch smartphone with qHD resolution. Sensation perfect smartphone.
Enjoy it!

this may seem like the dumbest question ever, but how or where do I find the HTC phone for T-Mo? do I have to buy it unlocked from overseas? I can't find it on the T-Mo site or amazon wireless.
Enjoy your new gadget!
