I have HTC Hero which is rooted CyanogenMod 7.0.3-Heroc
Had this phone reactivated but the Evdo or 3g did not come back i do have wifi and can make calls
just no internet or data.
Have used the ##3282# dialer but this is a rooted phone.
Did not back up 2.27.651.5 before the root and i have a mac.

I need help anyone please, Thank you.
 
You need to backup the phone via recovery (Nandroid) or through the ROM Manager app. Afterwards, find and flash a Sense 2.1 ROM and update the PRL. If that doesn't do the trick, call Sprint and have them problem solve for you. Since you are back to a stock 2.1 there won't be any problems -- Sprint won't even know you are rooted.
 
Did the back up of the CyanogenMod 7.0.3
Flashed the stock Sprint 2.1
Then got Sprint to do the rest
Thank you.
 
You are very welcome. I forgot to suggest making a backup of the Sense 2.1 ROM and restoring back to it every month or so to update the PRL (Primary Roaming List). It helps with phone/data coverage since Sprint updates its agreements with other providers to allow roaming on their networks.

If you didn't make a 2.1 backup don't worry about it now -- be sure to save a copy in the future for quick reference. You can have multiple backups saved, just remember which one is which when you restore based on the date created.
