I’m not sure what you mean. It sounds as though a step has not completed correctly. Are you using a European Hero?

Hello,

I followed the procedure “Rooting the HTC Hero” (http://www.thisandroidlife.com/2009/09/guide-rooting-htc-hero.html) and I had no problem to flash the image and to turn into recovery mode (everything I did matched the video as well), but unfortunately I still do not have root access

When I try to copy files to /system/fonts I get a warning “Read Only File System”

When I use “adb.exe shell” I get the “$” prompt instead of “#”.

I bought my HTC hero in Sweden last week:
