So HTC just tweeted that the 2.1 rollout for the Droid Eris starts TODAY. This blows. =[
Let the crying begin.
That sucks. Sprint needs to get off their ass and give us our 2.1.

I just flashed back to 1.5 from Zen's ROM. 2.1 ROMS are nice, but not everything works. Especially facebook sync. I don't think I've flashed a rom yet where it worked lol
2.1? I want 2.2 damnit! I've been running 2.1 for months!

Yeah, this is getting ****ing ridiculous.
Although most of us may have rooted and loaded 2.1, it;s still not officially supported, so we're all walking around with ticking time bombs.
I just wish Verizon would offer incentives to Sprint customers to switch. I'd take an Incredible tommorrow if I didn't have to pay a ****ing ETF to Sprint.

Yeah, OK, that was dumb, but we're still running 2.1 on rooted phones completely unsupported.
2.1 has been out for ****ing ages, and everyone's now getting the update, except us.
I have it, but I keep getting sense reboots, cameras crashes etc etc.
At least if it happened in the wild on 2.1, we'd be able to moan at Sprint, instead of the devs..
Just sayin'
I don't know why people are still upset. You bought it with 1.5. It is not a right to get 2.1. And besides, we have 2.1. Almost bugless. I'd even say it's got less bugs than the 2.1 we will get.

Name one phone on the planet that has been updated from 1.5 or 1.6 to 2.1 before today.
Who is this "everyone else" that you're talking about. The Droid Eris is the only Android phone on earth that has received such an update. If you believe the Best Buy leaks from last week, Sprint nearly beat Verizon to the punch, but evidently found a bug at the last minute.

you do realize however stable our current 2.1 roms are they are far from the final we will get.
I'm not sure what the big deal is. Now the devs can start making GPL requests for the Eris 2.1 kernel code... Should speed up the rooted, optimized ROMs after the Hero source comes out. Is anyone really going back to Sprint RUU when they release this ? All this means is that Verizon QC for software updates isn't as good as Sprint's -- I'd watch for a Verizon maintenance release about a week after Sprint drops the update.
Does getting the Eris ROM and eventually it's source help make the Hero's ROMS better?
Edit. Or what he said...
Did the official update and wanna go back to 1.5 so i can root is it possible...can i root right from 2.1??? this definitely was the worst thing ever. If anyone can help, please do!
Short answer...your screwed......should have done some research before flashing the RUU. It can't be rooted at this time so no way to go back....
Research would have shown you there are a number of 2.1 ROM's that are out and working....

As the French would say... you're la screwed. Keep your fingers crossed that someone here will get root on 2.1 before everyone jumps ship to the EVO.

As stated in time it will be rooted, i can't see why it wouldn't be. And no not all devs are going to the almighty EVO.
Someone should have labeled the update "WILL **** PHONE".exe

plenty of warnings all around the net.. about dont touch the official release .. if you love your root access...
cross your fingers and hope it get rooted again.

I cant complain i guess, hopefully they figure it out soon... how long does something like that usually take from when the RUU is made available, sorry if these are noob questions

Dont be suprised if you dont see root for at least 6 months. Come june 4th everyone's attention will be focused on the HTC Evo and most users will be in the Evo forums and researching Evo and Watching youtube videos on the EVO's performance. All i can say is make do with what you got until the evo dies down and focus on the hero will continue as normal.

Our beloved Hero isn't on the list, but the MyTouch3G Slide is, perhaps that will mean an easy port eh?
Hmm. The Hero isn't in any of the categories... I guess the Evo buried the other Sprint Androids.

Yeah the Hero is more than capable to run it. Kind of disappointing but not suprising, Want Froyo, buy a new phone. I wish Google had the power to say, want to sell an Android phone? Then push our updates to all android based phones you sell.

****...if the small Samsung GPS update that was pushed to me on Sunday and immediately bricked my phone is any indication of how Samsung does their updates... screw it, I'll wait for CM on Vibrant.
Want Froyo? Buy a Nexus One... or a G2... If we knew when we were getting Froyo, we'd tell you.
If you had it you would just be whining about the next update. But yeah, where is it!!!

Hey all,
Just thought I would inform you that my Epic 4g is officially ordered, and I will receive it in approximately one week. Not only do I want to thank everyone for their amazing support of me for my time on the hero forum, but I'd like to let you know what I will maintain while I'm gone in the Epic section. I WILL still maintain my Q&A section, and will look for questions in my Themes. I will not be releasing new versions of themes, however. If you all would like the themes ported for the latest versions of CM, feel free to do that I just want to let everyone here know that they've helped me develop as a themer and developer, and I will miss this section. And please, feel free to join me as an Epic user
Thank you all again,
