That's an excellent point I never have to reset whereas with my TP I had to soft reset multiple times per day.

As for the post challenge I am posting now from my hero my last post was from my hero and id say 40-50% of my posts are from my Hero. It's far from perfect but not bad at all.

Despite its glitches the Hero still dominates most other phones ive used. Definitely winmo.

I'm running fresh 1.1 it really makes a difference and for typing make sure you have trained it to how you type in the keyboard settings.

Re: Help me keep my Hero.....

I constantly had to reboot my TP too, at best twice a day. I currently have over 2 days uptime on my Hero and the only reason I rebooted was to demostrate the menu-call-end button reboot sequence to my wife.

Re: Help me keep my Hero.....

Compared to my touch and touch pro , I never really have to soft reset, only when flashing between ROM's

Before flashing to Fresh 1.1 I was at a week with out a reset

Re: Help me keep my Hero.....

Ok people, by a SOFT RESET do you mean powering down your Hero and powering back up? If not, then what??

With a bit of research, a little reading, and flashing a good rom (such as fresh 1.1) You shouldn't have the issues your experiencing.

Just like the diamond you and I used to use, this device has come a long way (from stock) by means of flipz and co. in a very very short amount of time. Absolutely love this device, for the very reasons posted above.
