Just got my Airtel Carrier - HTC Hero (unlocked) 2.73.720.5
Im surprised that everyone besides India have a 2.73.4xx firmware. Is it just me or did India get a smaller updated edition (revision) compared to the rest of the world, or is this just Airtel's doing of a little extra in the firmware/rom.
After running from WM to the iPhone, Ive finally made peace (hopefully) with the HTC Hero (Android). Being an avid Star Trek Fan...all I can say is I've got "Data" - what about you all
I did my little share of forum searching, but I couldnt find a single post regarding the Airtel HTC Hero (the last HTC Magic was locked with that stupid and insanely painful SPL), so my question begins with
1) Is the Airtel HTC Hero using another crazy SPL?
2) If so, what guide should I follow for unlocking (ability to ROM upgrade/change)
3) I can confirm that we are NOT locked to SIMCARDS - I can use my Idea Cellular Simcard just fine.
Added questions include - are there "Kitchens" like we used to have for Windows Mobile ?
Hope someone can help me out here - I'd love to be part of the ol' Cooking & Chef team
Nice to know that Airtel has brought in the latest version of the ROM.
Did you buy it with the Airtel dealer OR from a conventional distributor. At Bangalore, it is priced at 32K. How much did it cost you?? I am more of a palm guy...the palm pre just does not seem to come out.
I paid 33,600 actually Couldnt get a better deal and didn't want to wait a few more days since I'm off to USA tomorrow (rdosti = shivam)
Performance
Guys,
I am planning to buy Hero through Airtel and have a few questions,
1. Is the airtel version unlocked ?
2. Should I buy from Airtel or open market ?
3. Any reasons not to buy it ? Performance ? sluggishness ?
and lastly, is it simple to update the firmware, I am very keen on the new Android 2.0 update for the new google GPS app.
thanks in advance,
Jaspreet
Only the first part of 2.73.xxx.x bit matter. The "xxx.x" refer to carrier and regional customization, the ROM is basically the same.
have same phone, in China.
Hi,
Did you root the phone? I have the same phone, but i bought it in China for 3100 rmb. I'm trying, and im stuck on downloading 'boot.img'... FAILED (remote: not allow)

Buy it from outside distributor or mobile shop. dont go to Airtel. they are damn costly.

We are getting more and more surprises from HTC!
Astel.be the biggest Belgium cell shop listed the Legend ''in stock'' today

WHouaua
Many thanks for the info !
Have you ever purchased at Astel ? Is it secure ?
Thanks
I didn't buy from Astel, it's in Belgium and I am in Lebanon.
Here phones are available 2-3 weeks in black market after European release, so I think I will have to wait to end of the month
Available in the Netherlands: http://www.smartphoneshop.nl/product/90878/htc-legend.html
I wonder if it's available in Asia already because our imported black market phones are either from Veitnam,Hong Kong or Thailand
I see a HTC Legend yesterday from Astel.be
Reliable web store
i have one here atm, we got them in stock @ Mediamarkt in holland
Hi! Hope u can help me. I'm looking for HTC legend in Beirut and can't find one yet. What's the official black market in Beirut? How can I contact them? Many Thanks. Hani
Hey everyone.
Currently have a HTC Hero. Want to get the Desire Z/G2.
Does anyone know any good priced UK sellers?
So far my best option seems to be Play.com, just wondering if its available elsewhere for cheaper?
Ive googled but most of the sites Ive never heard of/seen/or used before so I am a bit edgy...
Cheers everyone! Hopefully Ill be a proper member of the G2/Desire Z brigade soon!
(No, Im not going to import it unless someone can give me a really really really good reason to)
Its a good phone,I got mine off amazon but in the space of 2 days went up in price by 50 quid!
Nothing against amazon but as I found out when I tried to transfer my phone insurance over they would not touch it as they class Amazon as a "2nd hand" dealer even though they sell new stuff as well,good service and I thought 250 for it new was fair, just be mindful about the insurance angle
Thanks! Thats why I didnt want to import really, most insurers will class it as a 'grey import' and not touch it (Ive had the same with camera equipment)
Im guessing Play would be treated as not being a 2nd hand dealer surely...?
I would get a second hand one, but not sure what versions will be locked down and unrootable (if there are versions that are locked down?)... A couple are available locally on gumtree etc for between £190-£210, I wouldnt get insurance, but Ive always babied my Mobiles so may just go without...hmm...
A bonus of getting a second hand one may be that it is easier to root,i think the newer phones were causing problems to root(I think they have sorted it out) I know what worked for me,
Hopefully welcome to the Desire Z brigade
If I were you, this late in the life of the Desire Z, I'd just buy a refurb unit or used from another person. It's really not worth the price that they will be charging online at this point.
Not sure about the UK market for DZ's, but in the US the going price for a used G2 is in the $200-$250 range.
I brought my dz from www.handtec.co.uk. they seem trustworthy and prices were very good.
The XDA app now has a thanks button. Please use it
I have seen them on simply electronics website in UK for 248 pound brand new, i bought a camera from the same website and had no problem.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I'm sure I had an email last week from either Expansys or Dabs which had a DZ for just over £200. Can't find the email at the moment, I will check tomorrow.

Bought my desire z off amazon too...amazon prices change every now and then..I got mine when it was 250 I dont think it usually goes any lower.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Found the email, Expansys were offering the DZ for £280 sim free but it shows up as discontinued now. Though they B grade stock for the same price.

Www.Simplyelectronics.net got it for £248 simfree plus free delivery 3 days.

i got mine for £200 at carphone warehouse in uk brandnew. not sure how much it is now though...
Hi everyone,
I have Desire HD with 2.3.3 and sense sense 2.1. The handset is by Virgin but i am using it in Pakistan. Just wanted to ask that since HTC is officially pushing the upgrade, would it be possible for me to get it by using Virgin bought set using in Pakistan on a a local cellular company?
so just wait for the update, i get mine on 29 dec 31!
after a wait for more than 2 months, got the update yesterday
I think the dell xcd i bought is a chinese blade...someone on xda with the same baseband as mine tried to unlock the ram following the tutorial for gen 2 blades .. and it got bricked ..:/ so not sure if i shoukd try especially since i have no prior experience..besides the blade checker app also says the phone in a chineseblade and gen 2.
Now since i bought it in feb the blade still carries warranty... my question is ..can i get a replacement for this working phone by just stating the low ram...or by pointing out other probs as wi fi keeps connecting and disconnecting constantly ..freezing cause of inadequate ram?
Or like someone here suggested ...by deleting specific files from the phone to brick it ?(if this is to be done ill need help from someone in mumbai as i am here for a week...)
let me know guys cause the phone is extremely slow with just the 256 mb ram..sometimes you need to wait for min or two.just to make a call :/
I am in mumbai for a couple more days so would appreciate suggestions soon...since there are no dell service centers where i am from.
thank you in advance
Any suggestions ?
I reckon u shd buy a one v (17k) or a micro ax ninja4.0 (5k)
