Might want to try Frost 4.0 has alot of GB features while keeping a sense based rom. I tried CM 7 rc2 but had to many issues for me "4g, 720p, cell signal". Frost gives me the features i want without the issues I get from other roms.

I just don't wanna toast my EVO as I had a bad root on my old Hero and it was bricked going to wait for an ota which is hopefully this spring

cool, welcome to the club

any way to find a 4g coverage map of the spokane area? i go from 0 bars on one corner to full bars accross the street...

new sprint 4g commercial shows samsung moment?

has anyone else seen this?
its been on twice today but i hadnt seen it before that (also cant find it on youtube)
IIRC it only talks about 4g, and it shows the actor streaming video through a Moment and using the Wimax Overdrive to power a few laptops

I saw it too, but it didn't look EXACTLY like a moment. The D-Pad was a little different.

Read the fine print then skip ahead about 1 seconds he's holding a hot spot kinda like wifi with 4g anywhere.
Here I took some snapshots,and edited with the snipping tool
In the second pic the thing circled in blue is the hot spot. I also highlighted some fine print in the first 1.
I'm really wishing my hero supported 4G right now, because I found out yesterday at a sprint kiosk that honolulu has 4G coverage already. QQ
Guys, that's not a Moment, it's his laptop. You got confused because the size is so similar...

I work for Sprint retention the "God" department... no phone has 4g access (yet) and the Hero will get an update to use 4g when they release 4g for phones... of course im sure someone will figure something out way before that

Our hardware doesn't support 4G does it? I don't think a simple software upgrade would fix that...

Hero vs. other phones re: speed

Hi all,
First post, but I've been lurking for a bit.
Anyway, I just got my Hero with Sprint about a week ago and am running DamageControl's current ROM. It's a killer phone, but from what I understand the Droid has more processing power. I've got another 3 weeks to give back everything and get free Droids with Verizon.
I know this is a Hero forum, but I wondered if anybody knew of a "benchmarking" resource for all Android phones.....
thanks!
PS You guys are amazing! I can't believe the amount of product that comes out of this board.
as we all know, the hero was obsolete was 6 months before it came out. youll go broke trying to keep up. save up your months with sprint and get the evo when it comes out, you wont regret it ;-)

whats after that? lol
i like the hero and am willing to stick with it until the evo, and as for whatever comes out after that...i dont know. (android, htc, ect) will eventually release their own iPad, im sure, but i guess its a matter of what YOU want. i got a great plan with sprint (54$ for unlmtd everything) with great coverage (detroit it a major city, its bound to be set up good for the 3G user) and a highly customizable phone to say the least (ill admit i was disappointed when i got the hero, learned of the nexus and all the new upncumins) and am excited to move onto the evo, and can wait patiently.
well, idk about patiently...but ill be waiting...

I was able to see the evo up and running the other day.... WOW. Slim and sleek and very fast... took about a 1/3 or less of the time it took the Hero to open stuff. It was running on 2.1 as well and look really similar to Damages 2.1v5 ROM. This handset is going to really help out Sprint. Only thing the one I saw lacking was they hadn't activated the 4g on it yet.

Yeah, after studying competing prices, I don't know that I could stomach what everybody else is charging. I just don't get how anybody is competing with Sprint at this point!
I'm paying $129 -%15 for two lines, 1500 minutes, web, txt, and mobile-to-mobile. ANYBODY else charges $40-80 a month more!
I guess it's good for us they're so desperate for customers
PS I'm curious as to the price of the EVO. Any guesses?

At least until the next android update (Froyo) is out. I believe Froyo is supposed to support 4G natively
haha, yeah it does. they had it on another phone of theirs in the past (winmo). I wonder what video formats will be supported natively. I hope they add .avi support.

That's been my PRL since I've gotten my phone, which was back in March. I update it fairly regularly, but it never changes. I wonder how often it actually does change.
Perhaps it is because I am up in WA now as opposed to Bay Area CA

Cool! I'm in the Everett/Snohomish area right now. Just updated to 60665 on..... well... ****.... Stock 2.1 lol
I still don't understand how the hell the PRL actually works then. Maybe it's just one master list for everyone that gets rolled out and it just needs your location for figuring out where to roam to? Not really sure. Cool that there's some WA folks here though.
I'm in SoCal.
Im having issues with this new PRL, my radio keeps pulling and i loose 3g quite often now.
Is there any way to revert back to an older PRL?

have to find the PRL file, which may be around these parts some where.
Put it on the root of your SD card
dial ##PRL#
enter MSL
Browse to SDCard
apply.

Look for "batteryindicator" by developer "darshancomputing" in Android Market.
Their Pro version "batteryindicatorpro" has higher icon resolution and more features.
I've been using for a month now and I highly recommend it.

I was blown away. There had been reports of 4g signals in Queens, but I just found out that we were getting a signal here in Brooklyn early this morning on a fluke. I tested around 4mbps indoors near a window. And the pic is the result from outside. On stability I'd rate it a 6.5. Signal did drop a few times intermittently. But pretty good overall.

I think it's all location dependent, but the main thing is we don't have an official date for 4G yet, so it's exciting....

This is good ol' Brooklyn, USA. Lefferts Gardens-Prospect Park area to be exact. The 3G service around here is actually pretty darn good. I average about 1.5 to 2.2 most times, so I'm not even that pressed about 4G, but I'm damn sure glad to see it is available if the occasion ever arises that I need it! Somehow I doubt, I'll be getting those speeds when the system officially roles out and is advertised.

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'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)
