Guest stevenz Posted July 5, 2010 Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 (edited) Sort of, LoX has ported a version of CyanogenMod 6 (Android 2.2 / FroYo based) to the GSM hero. It's alpha so if you don't know what you're doing and aren't confident messing about with adb/fastboot etc then don't touch it. http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/2059-cy...iew-test0-0705/ ** Edit - Turns out LoX has already posted a link to this in another thread, but there you are... :) In other news, HTC have released the 2.1 kernel source for the Hero so improved custom kernels will no doubt be forthcoming to make 2.1 and the 2.2 ports even better. There will NEVER be an official HTC released 2.2 for the Hero, so if you need FroYo, then keep an eye on this man.

Guest neoclassic Posted July 5, 2010 Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 Yep, I was impressed when I tested it yesterday. It looks like cyanogen is porting the 2.2 from Nexus One. If it's true that 2.2 is coming out for the Desire in a week or so, then maybe Paul can port it over to the Hero, then we'll have Sense as well! That would be awesome.

Guest Rubber Ducky Posted July 5, 2010 Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 http://android.modaco.com/content/android-...om-htc-support/ This is a RUMOR. Which means it's crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 This is a RUMOR. Which means it's crap. HTC spokesperson opens their mouth and the words two weeks comes out, they probably said the same for the update of 1.5, 1.6. Several months late they release 2.1. How long do you reckon for 2.2?
