Help Me for android

want upgrade my htc hero to 2.1 and please say me how can i upgrade this phone i am new on android and which file must be copy on SD card and etc... please teach me step by step
please help me

First thing is, Official Android 2.1 is not yet available for the HTC Hero, so the only way to get this is to use a custom build.
To do this you will need to 'Root' your phone and install a recovery image. Just do a search in these forums there's loads of help around here.
Then you will be able to flash a custom ROM to your Hero...

[Q] Hello all! Please welcome my brother by helping me :-D

Hey all!
As you can see in my signature, i'm a HD2 user and i'm currently porting android, it's now been 3 months since i last used winmo!!!
To cut down to the important; my brother recently bought HTC Magic!
Since i like modding a lot, and since i have felt the beauty of android 2.2 (Froyo) on my HD2, knowing that Magic is android 1.5 by default, i want to port the latest ROM/android to his cell phone!
It's a PVT32A i guess (its written on the box 288MB RAM)
Is there is any froyo ROM for magic now?!
Or eclair?!
Stock or custom?!
I prefer stock roms if possible with froyo or eclair!
If not, what is the latest/fastest/best ROM for magic right now?! Please point me to it!
In htc site i found this http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=267&cat=2&dl_id=862;
did anyone tried it?! Is that android 1.5 or more?!
Please help me guys!
I know i should be reading but HD2 has got many bugs still in android to keep me completely busy in reading there besides that my brother doesn't like to read.
Thanks

Simple.... follow my guide to root and get custom recovery...(check my signature)... then apply stock magic 2.1 with sense found in development section... or the stock 2.2 without sense also found in development!
Good luck!

Excuse me mumilover but i have many concerns, if you or anyone can help me:
1-i've read that there is a "check for system update" in the settings/about phone but i don't have it!!! that is weird!!! I was thinking of updating the system first to see where that leads me!
2-in your root guide you use adb installing method; well i have never used it yet, is it that simple by only opening a command prompt in windows and writing "adb install C:\roottools\App\UniversalAndroot_1.6.1.apk" for example i can install this app if this is its location on pc?!?
Excuse my ignorance, but does this work simply by connecting the cell to the pc va usb (with debugging mode on) or it does need anything extra to make it work?!?
3-the biggest difficulty is that, by default, there are no file manager included and no market application!!!! which means one can not install any app!!! No way to download it and no way to install it if one can't access the SDcard!!!
Is that why we need adb?!?
4-How can i know my radio version and Hboot?! (in winmo it used to be displayed on booting)
5-Do you mean by "and get custom recovery" that i should do also steps 6, 7 and 8?! or only 7?! or maybe 7 and 8?! (coz 6 seems a bit freaky "Using this spl will cut your ram in half and make the 3.5mm jack useless!"... )
Thanks a lot

I can only say, that you have to read the guide 1-3 times more...
Many of your questions is answered there...
It very simple to follow, and i have written all the steps need.
Just do it and revert back if you get any problems.
Please, if you get problems, then write them in the guide thread and not here... to make things organized :0)

Not be rude, but that's just the tiny package, just the new vendor and some google stuff, no apps tho.
I have the full and tiny posted on my OP page under "VANILLA - FroShedYo."
I believe framework packed the full, I just updated a few of the apps in it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=824160

Thanks for that workshed. I just might post some screenshots because I already took them... and hey, would you mind if you could teach me a couple of tips for making ROMs? It's no prob if you don't.

Yay i get no fC now

If I can find the time. Start reading up on what you need. Install linux (64-bit if you want to start deving Gingerbread) get the sdk, read up on github, read about git and repo sync'ing, lot's to read before you start attempting.
I'll help you with any specific questions

Hi im new and... :)

hello im new to all this android moding but I come from flashing nokia phone. I would like to know if there is a ROM that looks like samsung original? No cosmetic mods... All I want is speed speed speed. Someone help me

1. Wrong section
2. If you want speed, stock firmware is as good as it gets imho. All these other "roms" are just deodexed variants which doesn't give you speed improvement just more theming options.
3. What you want is a good custom kernel. I'd recommend trasig's kernel. Been using it for a month now and its very stable.

right now im running
2.2
i9000bujp4
karnel- 2.6.32.9 root
froyo.bujp6
+ lag fix but my phone still lags in the apps menu
I wanna update to the latest version but dont know how (kies not working). So roms dont give speed? only karnels do? I also need slovenian language

Like i said considering we're dealing with closed source and all these roms based on same firmware, deodexing,zipaligning...etc won't give you as noticable a difference as will a different kernel
In ur case ur looking for a ext4 kernel. May i suggest voodoo.

Hello, I've been using darky's ROM since the beginning, and I must say that his 8.0 edition ( gingerbread ) is a hell of a fast ROM indeed ! Cosmetics is reduced to just the gingerbread theme, which is nice and gives a good feeling on SGS.
Hope I helped you with this one

Hi I'm new and ignorant.
Hi I'm new and cant read.
Hi I'm new and [ . . . . . .].

Stupid know it all. Yes thank you for your help now all i need is a stock theme,guode to update to jpy and guide on how ro instal all of this. Once again im a noob and noobs must exist

<sarcasm>Great attitude bro </sarcasm>
A bit of reading and searching was too much huh? Cripes.
Yes, everyone starts out as a noob. Just most of us choose to follow the well-outline procedures that the experts have already made very clear.

You're WRONG. Newbs must exist. Noobs must not. And newbs should do non-newbs the favor of reading things like the FAQ before asking for help on the most basic things. We spend a lot of time making things as easy as possible for newbs.

Hint. Look in general section under sticky. Stock ROM's listed.
The modified ROMs are in Dev section.
I recommend spikes. Installation is in spikes 1st post. But better to flash stock on first attempt.
P.s. if u fight fire with fire u all waste time. If your gonna answer a thread then a negative response takes just as long as a positive response.

Hi!
I've decided to not open a new topic for this, since I have the exact same firmware as the OP.
The problem is, I can't find any information on this specific firmware, and I don't know if it's any good, or will I have to replace it... I'm hoping this won't be necessary tho, because this is my first Android device, and I'd like to start with simpler stuff, like rooting...
Which also brings me to my next problem: it says [email protected], and I have no idea what that means... Did I get a rooted version? Also, the 3-button combo for accesing download and recovery modes is working, and if I understood correctly, you are supposed to unlock it by yourself...
So, I'm hoping someone can enlighten me, and perhaps give me some pointers on how to play around with this amazing device...
Thanks!

No man.... newbs like me exists... i have low post count cuz i search and ask in specific threads before making a thread without reading first.
I know this community since 7/2009 and registered last year to participate instead of just leeching.
You can use google instead of forum search if you dont like it
On google enter:
[search term] site:http://forum.xda-developers.com
You cant even imagine how many answers you will find quietly.
Reading is better than asking same sh!t 100 times

Well, the problem is i dont know what to look for exactly, and its even tougher with the language barrier...

As posted.
Hint. Look in general section under sticky.

Follow!
Here's a link that will get you started, educate yourself and read every post and some of the replies to make sure it work at least for someone. When following instructions, do not skip words, do it by the word to avoid issues. After you're rooted and can flash thru Clockwork, you may want to consider Trigger ROM based on Froyo, something I have been happy with. Good luck and if you find my info helpful, I can use a "Thank".
Cheers!
