Can anyone tell me where to find HTC Sync software for mac?

**beezy** · 05-19-2010, 06:47 AM

**Edit Everyone read this. If you ran the ruu then you can not root,which in return means you would miss out on the goodthings that you can do.Just to name a few,NO livewallpapers,wireless tether,themes.
Ill sing and dance if they do put it up.Warning there is no way to root as of now if you run the 2.1RUU.

I don't think there is for a mac.Also you can't run the official 2.1 RUU on a mac.

**JayCudi** · 05-19-2010, 08:53 AM

The file numbers match.I almost bet its the same,but won't know till i can dl and open it up.If it has gsd in it then its the same cause it keeps the phone awake even with screen off.Glad im rooted.

**endeavorc** · 05-19-2010, 09:07 AM

**beezy** · 05-19-2010, 09:24 AM

Sucks i know of four bugs.lol

**geneva54** · 05-19-2010, 09:38 AM

What do you mean "awake issue?" So it sounds like we are better off getting your Kool Aid release?

**abbidad** · 05-19-2010, 09:39 AM

SPRINT HTC HERO 2.1 is ready for download at htc :

If you check in settings itll tell you up time vs awake time.GSD keeps your awake time almost the same as up time(eats battery).I wouldn't twista your arm to make you use kool-aid but if it was me i wouldn't ever run stock unrooted.

**illushinz** · 05-19-2010, 09:44 AM

Ok, so the question de jour, my hero is rooted, and running a custom Damage ROM. Can I run this update to "reset" my phone to a factory 2.1 directly, or do I have to jump through some hoops?

Well that sucks. Guess Im going to wait before making the decision on which update to use.

I would think you could but i could be wrong.If im wrong then you have to rruu to 1.5 then ruu 2.1.Remeber there is no way to root 2.1 right now.
