I'll try to explain what I can. First of all, at this time, there is no CONCLUSIVE proof that a task killer is NEEDED on the Sprint HTC Hero, to conserve battery life. Now as I said in my article, that doesn't mean you cant use one. Currently I see it as a matter of preference. Mobile Network sharing is a feature that Sprint apparently has disabled on the Hero. Users who have enabled it reporting getting an 'error 67'. I'm told that it has to do with using your phone as a modem, which allegedly Sprint seems to be trying to discourage. If you are trying to use the Hero as a modem, some users report success with a program called PDANet. Hope that helps! Mark – good questions. I’ll try to explain what I can.

Hope that helps!

I'm just learning how everything works. My friend, who has the Droid, told me to use a task killer, in order to conserve battery life.. True or False?? And then I was snooping around today, and I just can't figure out what Mobile network sharing is or what it does. The owners manual is so small and doesn't tell you everything about the phone. It sounds like it we be something pretty sweet but I can't figure out what its for. Could you explain it to me?? Thanks Mark Ok, I just got the HTC Hero. I’m just learning how everything works.
