Since I got my phone shortly before going on vacation, I never bothered to check into rooting it until yesterday. Telus seemed like they were never going to get the Hero updated to Android OS 2.1, still stuck on 1.5 – which limited me for the apps I could install, and other OS features. So mostly following the directions here (I had to use a different RUU image from what they said), I’m now using VillainROM 12 and so far things seem to be fast and smooth. It was a pretty easy process, nothing crazy to do at all really. I might try out other custom ROMs, but I like how this one is pretty much the same as it uses HTC Sense (which I think is nice).
