HTC Hero ringer delay
Published on 2009-12-28 21:01:00
I've been having issues with my hero taking awhile to start ringing, here are the things ive tried. Ill repost after a day of use to see how things are. First i took my ringtones off of the SD card and moved them to to the system partition. Even though I have a class 6 card I hope it would make a difference.First I moved the ringtones to their own folder on my SD Card. After unmounting I dropped to an ADB Shell# cd /sdcard/Music/ringtones# mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /d

Last night was the second time my phone had committed suicide on me. This time I was trying to set an alarm & was randomly unable to enter text. I rebooted the phone and then started getting forceclose in google.apps & android.phone. Great. After getting ready to throw the phone through a window I found this:http://androidforums.com/sprint-htc-hero/15011-70-app-limit-hero-sprint.htmlLooks like there is about a 70 app limit on stuff downloaded from the market.
