HTC hero (sprint) Battery life tips

yes lol

gps doesn’t use ram/memory when its turned on, but it does use the battery, if you have yours gps turned off when you don’t use it youll find your battery life will improve, as it did with me anyways.

i get most of mine from just launching the browser and looking for pictures online and saving them to the phone lol, any picture can be a background, your taken to an option with pictures where you can resize them to landscape. Hope this helps , don’t forget to subscribe.

Im not sure what you mean , Android 2.1 is a software refrence not hardware. And that software has already been confirmed by both htc and sprint to be hitting the htc hero in the first half of next year. So no , you don’t need to buy a new phone. Though new phones coming out next year will come preloaded with said software. Hope this helps don’t forget to subscribe!

can’t make that decision for you, but i will tell you this. Usually when good htc/android phones hit, they hit over seas first and then a couple months later US carriers get their hands on them. hero, magic,touch pro 2, hd2 etc all hit over seas first. So keep that i mind, even if they do comeout we usually get them last. Second, the Hero is confirmed to be upgradeable to 2.1 by both sprint and htc, so while hardware might be old software wont.

Yea , andriod does a pretty good job of managing tasks on its own, for me the task killer really is more about managing the ram, the phone does tend to get slow if you let too many things go on at once lol sigh…snapdragon where art thou. Don’t forget to subscribe

it does make the phone bullky, depending what kind of case you get. The one i have is bulk but does a great job of protecting the phone. Dropped it on gravel twice and no scratches, but i cant keep it in pocket, the soft rubber gips the pocket so its hard to slide it in and out. Hope that helps

Ill cover it in the next head to head video, the music slightly pauses when you recieve a text on both the moment and hero, accross all android phones actually
