Guest Paul Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Wait for a repacked version, the 2.1 update will likely ship with a perfected SPL and once you've flashed it, there may be no way back... ;) P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 'Soon' can be stretched. When 'soon' is used, it might even come in a year or so. Never trust devs using 'soon' ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The_IMF Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 (edited) It's ok... it'll take Paul about 23 minutes to repack it for us... lol Edited February 9, 2010 by The_IMF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pulser Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 It's ok... it'll take Paul about 23 minutes to repack it for us... lol I would hold out for a 'negative' time lol. Paul will have it before general release, I reckon, hence giving him ample time to release a repack update.zip without SPL before official release... Unless HTC keep it tight, in which case I reckon 23mins might even be a bit long ;) I've stripped out a ROM in about 15, but it was a 1.5 one and I knew what to expect and had created scripts beforehand. This one could be like a voyage of discovery. We just need to be sure it can be rooted before we all go flashing it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stripealipe Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Well whenever it gets released, it's *way* overdue. I feel badly done over by HTC. Flagship model? Bah, i've been unable to install lots of 1.6 and above apps for so long now. All the missing 1.6 and straight to 2.1 rubbish has turned into a sour joke. Sorry for rant....

Guest padstar Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Well I for one don't have any intention of installing the official HTC 2.1 update. Much rather wait for Paul's improvements via a MCR release. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Blackfish Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 Btw. @ Paul: What do you think about Dalvik Turbo? Any chance to see that in MCR also if HTC will not give us any newer versions of Android after the 2.1 update? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest darkorbchoir Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 When they release 2.1 with Sense UI do you think the google maps navigation will be working for the UK, or is that down to google and map licensing... would be nice to have the "fixed" version of maps included in the 2.1 MCR Rom when Paul builds it.

Guest phillevy Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 (edited) Paul - from past experience with HTC Roms, are you likely to get a leaked version, that much earlier than the official one is released - could it be weeks before or days?

Guest Carl_Brummy Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Hi Paul, What are the chances of the kernel that google have 'forked' being released as source code once 2.1 has been released to the wild? They have to release the source code as they have modified the kernel under GPL...but is there a time limit? Do HTC have the same legal requirement or are the drivers binary only? Carl.

I have often thought that the delays were to allow HTC and Google to push out Hero 2.1 with Worldwide Navigation (or at least more than just USA...). After all, the Hero was one of the highest selling phones so when this gets 2.1 it's going to massively increase the amount of handsets running Eclair. Navigation is well known to be part of Eclair, so maybe HTC are delaying to avoid any pressure on support, or disappointment if it didn't have Nav?
