Hi folks!

I'm having a horrid time finding cases/pouches for the Hero. I have tried the Cedar Square shop, but they have yet to receive stock.

Although the phone has impeccable build quality, I don't think it would win a fight with a tiled floor.

Does anyone have suggestions as to where one could find these types/all kinds of accessories for the device?
:confused:
 
ive seen nothing either for mine :(

ive had mine for many months now and still not a scratch on the glass. i thought the back was scratching pretty easy but i wiped it down yesterday.... NOT A SCRATCH EITHER

one tough little phone.

i think i need to do a factory reset, a couple of days ago i did some installs from the market and one of those apps (im thinking talkonaut) did something to my phone. suddenly my typing is laggy, ive uninstalled everything but still laggy. think im going to reset
 
Kvi do you have the vibration feedback on? I've read that the the feedback can make the typing laggy. I love typing on the Hero, it's very fast after a while of using it..

I use vibration or 'haptic' feedback. No lag for me.
Just make sure you calibrate it first.

The compact qwerty is so confusing for me.. LOL! I couldn't get used to it.

learning curve....but once you over the curve......

also keep a look out for TouchPal on the android market - from my winmo experience it is by far the best sip out there - so i am expecting some awesome stuff from there. I only hope there is a free version :)

hmm..lets see if i can explain this..

on the qwerty keyboard, last row, second button from the left (looks like a cog) takes you you to touch input settings where you can change the kb type (simpler, better, faster) ....OR

Settings->Local and Text->Touch Input->Keyboard Type->Compact Qwerty :D
 
anyone irate by the fact that the hero comes with no dedicated plug charger..I mean sharing the cable is annoying me...
Where can i get another cable from?
 
any pc shop anywhere. even from retailers like game etc. its a regular mini usb cable

ah... so i tried the usb cable from my htc touch that was lying in my bag and it works :whistle:

charging does seem a bit longer though but thats fined
 
usb charging is always a trickle charge compared to the full power version.
