Workaround for HTC Hero battery life issues discovered
Posted on October 29, 2009 | No Comments
Well, there still isn't a fix for the problem some people seem to be having with receiving text messages on their HTC Hero, but it looks like a workaround has been discovered for another pesky issue that can put a strain on the phone's battery life. Apparently, the phone has a bit of trouble going back into sleep mode after you send a text, or after you simply turn on the phone and immediately disable the screen without any activity. While some fairly elaborate fixes were tried by some users initially, it looks like the simplest actually works the best: just don't use the default SMS app to send texts. Instead, you can use a third-party app like ChompSMS or HandCent, which apparently have no problems letting the phone go back to sleep after you send a text. Of course, an official fix would still be the best but, in the meantime, you can hit up the link below for all the necessary details on making the (hopefully temporary) switch.

The HTC Hero is now available from Sprint, just an FYI
Posted on October 11, 2009 | No Comments
Sprint isn't doing itself any favors recently by breaking retail's first rule: Customers are dumb, so don't give them choices. But now at Sprint, consumers must decide between the Palm Pre, the BlackBerry Tour, and $179 (after $100 MIR & 2-year agreement) the Android-powered HTC Hero. I mean, they're making it awful hard on customers these days by offering more than one must-have phone.

Sprint HTC Hero now on sale to everyone
Posted on October 11, 2009 | No CommentsFiled under: Handsets, HTC, Sprint, Android
Sure, you've been able to get it a little early in one way or another, but the Sprint HTC Hero officially launched today, which means a second US carrier is now selling an Android device. High five. Now, is anyone spending the $179 ($479 off-contract)? And Sprint customers, we have to ask: Hero or Pre?
