Theres no megabass or audio boost or equalizer. Theres no app for it either. You can't send or receive anything with Bluetooth. There might be an app for that. Battery is rubbish. Most the apps on the market are pointless

      How about Hero's sound quality? The frequency responce graph in the review looks really disappointingly poor.. Even though the lows are not cut by some low-pass filter (Magic and G1 case), but it's so choppy and highs are..well, pathetic.
      Maybe somebody could test that out again, with newer firmware or something? Because really, that's just a deal breaker for me and I'll have to go with the Diamond2..I adore Android so much for it's UI philosophy, but sound quality is too important for me. I won't mind that gorgeous pixel density of the Diamond2...

      Thanks for any replies regarding this nasty issue, I'll b checkinh back now and then.

          example. theres a sega megadrive emulator which is a lite version and dont work properly and they have a full version you have to buy which is the same as the lite version. on the hero that app will not work with the touch screen.

              i like this phone, i have it now for 3 weeks but at the same time im not too happy about it. the apps on it aint that great.

              think soon as the nokia n900 comes out and the blackberry storm 2 i might sell this phone and get on of the other two.

                    HTC Hero is a great phone.
                    But there are some serious disadvantages for a phone of it's class.
                    Like: No Flash with a 5 Mega Pixel camera.
                    Video recording that even a 100 Euro phone can do.
                    65K colour is so last decade.
                    No FM Radio (why is it a multimedia phone then).
                    No TV out.
                    Very Small built in memory.
                    Bluetooth without file sharing; what a joke.

                              How can I get the Rom update? How do you do it? I read somewhere that the phone notifies you when available and does it automatically over the air for you. Is this true? Please help

                              Also how do I get ahome or open home?
