I wasn't sure how to search for this so I will just ask.
Q1 - Are all of the current modded versions of 1.5, aside from ADP 1.5, based on a Sapphire port?
Q2 - If they are all based on a port of Sapphire, do they all say Sapphire under model in the 'phone about' menu.
I only ask because I want upgrade to a modded 1.5 build already but I want the model to say T-Mobile G1 like it does now or atleast Dream. I know it is petty but I'm very anal. Thanks in advance.

Is it possible to get android 2.0 on your HTC Hero on the Sprint Network. If so, could you give instructions on how I'm not all that technically advanced, any help would be much appreciated.

there is a mostly working 2.1 on here in the stickys ant the top on the forum as well as an ASOP 2.0 build but I would give it a few days to a week and now that the kernel source has been released the great devs here should have a fully working build very soon.
Thanks alot, is there much of a risk doing that?
No, Sprint has not release a newer version of Android for the Hero than 1.5.

As long as you flash a CDMA Hero ROM & install the custom recovery image, there isn't much risk.
Sprint has not released the 2.1 update for the Hero yet and does not have any confirmed date on when it will be available.
The devs here have several 2.x ROMS with partial functionality, and instructions on how to root your phone and flash them are usually on the first page of their respective threads. Also, check the wiki at the top. It's new and needs a little polish, but it's a repository for all ROMS and guides you'll need.
HTC just released the source code for the CDMA kernel, and with that the devs here should have a fully functional 2.x ROM soon.

This is the 2.1 Beta. But yeah just like wtphoto said. Give it some time before it gets fully furnished for day to day use.
Only if you can't follow VERY simple instructions

Flashing is installing different core software or firmware on the phone.

click the links on my previous post to read what you need to do.
PLEASE read everything, then re-read it , then read it while you are doing it. there have been many people that have not done so and bricked thier phones
as the old adage goes measure twice cut once.
as far as flash the stock ROM allows flash, that being said there are some file formats that it wont play but for the most part its pretty good.
*edit*
Sorry wrong thread
I was wondering why its been so quite after HTC released the new kernel for the Sprint Hero, I thought that was the missing link that was needed for complete 1.6/2.0/2.1 roms?
It hasn't been quiet.
Also the kernel that HTC released needs to be ported to 2.6.29 to fully work with 1.6+.
All this info is on the forum & easily obtainable.

I just thought we would see some 1.6/2.0/2.1 releases now that the kernel was released, that's all
There's been 1.6+ releases for a while...
Let me elaborate a little here:
This kernel that was released is not a magic bullet, it allows us to see what code needs to be changed to get the correct Kernel to run these newer versions. It also lets us make any performance changes we can find.
All of the changes need to be put into the current kernel source,making it a .29 or whatever we need.
It has been fairly quite, we aren't seeing tons of Roms being thrown out to the market, thankfully. Our devs are taking all the time they need to make sure everything works and is stable. We should see some big stuff happen in the next week or so.

Hi
Am running CM6 alpha, love it.
Just wondering if there's a newer kernel for the Hero than what I am running, which is 2.6.29?
2.6.34 would be good!

I heard that some guys working on CayongenMod Kernel Support for Hero, is this right?

It's Android 2.2 - CM6
Hopefully 2.2 can be stabilized, it is a rather mature version of Android that I can live with for the rest of the device.

anyone know when will CyanogenMod 6 come out?

There are already roms available based on CM6 beta nightly builds. This time around experimental releases are in better shape than most full releases from the past IMHO.
It's just arrived on the g1 forum, so hopefully some kind individual will give us the 32a port soon.

For now, you can use briancrook port for 32A (it comes from nightly builds)

Does this port work?
Sent from my HTC Magic
It works but it has a problem with the market, it FC after installing an app.
The rest works like a charm, faster than 2.1

I encourage someone to correct me if I'm mistaken... but I think that by doing that you just reverted your kernel to an older version.
Is your kernel 2.6.34? If not then you just failed.
It may be running just "fine" but you are still lacking some 2.2 Froyo.
Oh... and I'm going to move this to General because no one is posting a ROM like the OP is requesting. This is for DEVELOPMENT, not Q&A.

You can find it in G1 Rom Development forum. It's 6.0.0 RC1 (Release Candidate)
I'm using it with my 32A (hong kong version) 12 hours ago.... very stable. For 32A port, just follow bcrook88 in Twitter or find it in the G1 thread
