Can I use the wifi on my HTC Sprint Hero overseas (United Kingdom) to stay connected? Can I use the wifi on my HTC Sprint Hero overseas (United Kingdom) to stay connected? I know I will not be able to make and receive calls, but I have access to wifi then it would be nice if I could use the wireless feature HTC to get my email, Google chat, sports scores, notification via my phone.
Thank you:)
The frequencies and protocols to run the same as in the U.S. as the UK so it should go. I have a HTC Touch Pro. I turned off the phone and use only Wi-Fi before and it works very well in the United States. It's really crazy the amount of free hotspots around me that I choose. I would not consider using the connection to play WoW, but to compare prices against other online works very well. Thus, by using it for E-Mail or, possibly, IM should be allowed, but forget it for Skype or something like that. Good luck!
Yes, as long as you can find a network
