Guest tdohappens Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 of course he's joking it was actually pushed back to september ... 2011 this is fun until we hear the official news of the delay. it may be august but my guess is "by the end of july" does anyone think that hero is getting froyo instead of eclair?

I'm done with all the speculation. For my use, VillainROM 5.3 gives me all I need. HTC can go screw themselves. This is why I bought an Android phone, btw. So I didn't have to wait on the manufacturer for updates. So far it's working out great ;-) Edited April 30, 2010 by venturerider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt froyo will come to the Hero, it looks like its too memory hungry for the Desire and Magic. The Desire has double the memory of the Hero and if 2.2 can't run in that memory, then there will be no hope for Hero 2.2 Android 2.2 release mid May?

That article states 2.2 might be too memory hungry for the Dream & Magic. It doesn't mention the Desire. That said, the Magic has a similar spec to Hero. OTOH, if 2.1 will run on it I'm not sure why 2.2 wouldn't, based on the leaked feature set. Edited May 1, 2010 by zorm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest maddiez Posted May 1, 2010 Report Share Posted May 1, 2010 Dear HTC Hero Users, Android Froyo (2.2) update for Hero will be released on December 21st, 2012. We can promise that there will be no delaying anymore. Yours faithfully, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its because 2.2 will include flash 10 which may run too slowly and too bloated for Hero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, 1.6, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 3.0....are all far too much for Hero, because we Hero users are apparently all cheapskate bastards who refuse to change to a new HTC handset every 3 month.

Guest zorm Posted May 1, 2010 Report Share Posted May 1, 2010 I think its because 2.2 will include flash 10 which may run too slowly and too bloated for Hero. I'd be happy with 2.2 & either unusable Flash or the Flash component ripped out. It would be a shame to miss out on a lot of the clean up 2.2 seems to be offering, including a reliable JIT DVM & Google's ongoing modularisation..

Guest Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 (edited) genius Oh well, a few people laughed at least. The way things are going it seems more prophecy than joke situation assessment though, I do admit. I am half expecting / worrying about a ROM that runs so badly that we won't want it anyway...

Guest Dan Mullen Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Oh well, a few people laughed at least. The way things are going it seems more prophecy than joke situation assessment though, I do admit. I am half expecting / worrying about a ROM that runs so badly that we won't want it anyway... I've tried a few 2.1 ROMs, the best being VillainROM 5.5 IMHO. Although there are some nice apps that need Android 1.6+, and there are some nice features in Android 2.1, I'm sticking with MCR3.2 until Paul gets hold of an official 2.1 ROM to work with. None of the 2.1 ROMs out there are bug free - the main issue for me is that I can't connect my phone to my car via Bluetooth. Yes, 2.1 is nice... but I think quite a lot of people will feel it's a bit of an anti-climax when it finally arrives! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ikamatos Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Just got this from HTC. Kindly be informed that HTC will be providing a free update to Éclair for European HTC Hero variants. Starting in June, anyone owning an HTC Hero will receive an initial preparatory update, shortly followed by the full Éclair update. For the full update, we would recommend using a free Wi-Fi hotspot or an unlimited data plan, otherwise standard data charges may apply, please note that we apologize for the inconvenience, however it will require some time to update Sense for this new version of the Android OS. Please be patient while we work to provide you with a tightly integrated experience like the one you are already enjoying on your Hero. Please note that the information above is confirmed for HTC branded devices not network branded ones if your handset is network branded, kindly contact the network operator for further information.
