I have this phone for 4 days now and it's quite nice.

Except for Wi-Fi connection it has some very big issues around this. It simply won't connect other phones have no problem. And the one time it did connect I couldn't browse.

I think it's a known issue (can't belive there selling it like this)

If anyone had the same experience and fixed it please let me know. thanks

    truly a great phone. But without Wifi n 3G (in countries like India) Its of no use..! Phone literally becomes a mere music phone. Sense UI n and other touch functionalities are just as good as HTC has promised. bit of Lagging still persists even after a ROM Update only if u have loaded the phone with lot of apps, music n photos. One thing I have noticed in this phone is that if you lot of text messages and u have kept messages widget in anyone of yo home screen then u will notice more lagging while sliding sideways. This also true for Albums. If u have too many photos it tends to lag more. Its been two weeks with this HTC Hero (unlocked version in India) i would rate it as 8 out of 10.

              i am from india... very disappointed with the phone indeed...
              i am really impressed with the quality but i had a replacement done around ten days of my purchase... now i have sent it again to replacement...
              12 years... 10 brands 5 visits to service centers...
              htc hero : 25 days 4 visits to sc... 1 replacement ... waiting for second replacement...
              track ball seems to have a mind of its own...
              phone switches off on its own...
              wap does not work
              airtel live does not work...
              major issues...
