Turn on WiFi tether. Press to start tethering. Open up wireless connections on your pc. Look for G1 Tether. Connect to it. Computer will acquire address and then phone will vibrate. Surf safely haha.

I rooted, recovered, MoDaCo'd my HTC Hero from Sprint just fine after a few hours.
However, the next day I realized I was no longer receiving Text messages (Sending seems fine).
I went back to my earliest Nandroid backup (post-root, post-recovery image install).
This did not fix my issue.

I even went as far as downloading the original stock image, and loading that.
This resulted in bringing this back to factory state (inc. unrooting, recovery image removal).
However, I'm still unable to receive SMS.

Spoke to Sprint support.
They see lots of inbound SMS traffic to my phone during this period. They show it as delivered.

I'm not getting notifications of SMS or anything. Just not receiving any.
Anyone have this similar issue?

send text to 9999 "all messages". without quotes. this might help.

That may help ^ if not you may need a new MSID(I think) number. Mine got clogged one time and a new one helped. Otherwise, new phone time.

ROOT THE HERO!! WHY? Because its awesome sauce! I used this method and it worked great, I recommend you:
1. - Get it rooted first.
2. - Flash the Recovery image
3. - Now you can Flash A ROM!! I recommend Fresh's roms personally. Don't get a Beta if you want a rom for daily use.

Will this work for the HTC Hero on Telus? It is not CDMA, but HSPA+...
