s207 1 Report post Posted January 27, 2010 I downloaded the RUU 1.56 and updated my handset. Done today morning itself but still feel Awake time is less than before. But Bluetooth problem still remains. No MUTE icon appered on phone display (as claimed by many thru OTA update).

s207 1 Report post Posted January 28, 2010 As per my experience I recommend ALL HTC Hero users to Upgrade software to Version 1.56. BIGGEST advantage is phone AWAKE time goes down to 15-20% even if we keep network access ON. It was 80-85% before this update. After phone restart I started getting MUTE buttons on screen while making calls. (earlier I had reported that it was available even after update, so a correction to my earlier post) Regards I downloaded the RUU 1.56 and updated my handset.
