Honestly, our phones will likely not see it anytime soon. My guess is FroYo is what they are refering to and I doubt we will get an official FroYo release.
good point. even if we did, it would probably take longer than 2.1.

Did they not make Froyo so it is easier to get on devices by not having to mess with native apps?
...i honestly dont know

Don't be so certain about that. We won't see if from Sprint anytime soon (probably never)...but our devs here will definitely port Froyo once they can get their hands on it from somewhere.
I know everyone is all in a hurry to get the OTA for FROYO. I also would like FROYO but enough is enough with all the posts. The fact is most of the people on this forum wont get the OTA anyway because they will either wait for a build from eugene or bionix or they cant get OTA because they are not running stock firmware anyway. Just be patient. I would rather wait till a good version of FROYO without a ton of bugs comes out than have them push some crap FROYO on us and then have to have 10 updates to make it work correct. This is just my thought Flame me if you want. Me personally Im waiting for eugene or bionix to come out with the versions they will mod anyway. So do us all a favor and stop with the I heard through my uncles cousin twice removed about FROYO.
Thanks

So you make yet another thread bringing up the subject ....
One more thread to clog up the works ...
Thank you for starting another thread on this.
Because making one topic about the 1000 of the others will make everybody stop begging for froyo.

Good evening!
now, as we all have 2.1 it's a good time to start thinking of possible 2.2 upgrade. Has anyone heard anything? are there any rumors anywhere? Please post anything you can find!
Good Luck to us all and fingers crossed we will get 2.2 before 3.0 comes out!

Oh yeah..?
check your set and you will see it is mentioned 2.1 update 1 , i think they are more to work on the 2.1 before thinking in 2.2
2.3 not 3.0
Its 2.3 not 3.0 numbnuts!
Seeing the 2.1 update, the idea of Froyo from the SE dev team, gives me the creeps...
lol!
Why start people whining about the next evolution lol, na 2.2 is an easy update from 2.1 so will 2.3 i feel though that new we have the 2 base 2.2 might come faster, 2.3 is a definate no though as the handset dont have enough ram.

Yes, as normal for S/E, they have to make 352 "updates" to 2.1 before they move on to the next version OS...
- just wait and see...

"shut up"
if your thinking who the hell is walt mosspuppet click here
but srsly,
if (sony have learnt there lesson)
{
console.WriteLine ("upgrade to android 2.3 and release slightly later than most other android devices")
}
else
{
console.WriteLine ("upgrade to android 2.2 when people are getting android 3.0")
}
For speculation: SE said that they will support their product for 2 years after it launch, so therefore 2.2 should be in the works. If for any reason that they wont update to 2.2, it's because of hardware limitation (probably excuse that SE makes)

Wouldn't be the first time now, would it?!
We all remember the story of MT and hardware not capable of it...
The x10 is fully capable of running 2.2, but my guess is they will skip over it and go to 2.3 sometime in the spring.

Rikard clearly said on the blog that 2.1x upgrade may also include an OS upgrade, that decision had simply not been made yet.
I'd be happy with FLASH web bowsing.
Just that.

Walk lightly. Say anything that could be perceived as even slightly negative and pilote will lock the thread down quicker than you can say Jimmy crack corn!
You have to say things like: The X10 is the greatest out dated device ever made. And, how glad you are that SE stripped away all the great features of Android. They were just getting in the way of SE's perfect UI. And, than how glad you are that boot loader has been lock down so that no one is able to change a thing.
And there would have to be things like, who really wants 2.2 anyway? Heck, you can get that with any other phone on the market. Plus getting flash 10.1 would just make you waste too much time on the phone streaming videos. And, that would just kill the battery faster giving you less time to spend with your baby.
Plus there would be all those apps that you can't get with 2.1, and they would just burn up all your free memory.
The X10 is perfect and SE know exactly how to take care of her customers . Now who in their right minds would want to change from all of this? I only wish I could have paid more for mine!
whatever they do they just better not release a X10 HD model with 2.2 on there with multi-touch.
if they do, i'm never using a SE product ever again.
So, Gingerbread has been released... when do we see a ROM for the CDMA Hero?
OH HELL YEAH!
and here's a link:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.3-highlights.html
Time to get a new phone, ha.
Would it run on our phones?
Hopefully one of our few remaining devs can get something going

I'm not much of a dev, but I'll be dabbling on trying to get it to at least compile. I mostly build stuff for my own personal use. I'm sure someone will beat me to the punch anyway since I work more than I would like to
Your best bet is either jaybob (he seems to be just a cyanogen builder) or aosp. I think besides the previous two I mentioned and nfinitefx45 there are no other real public ROM devs left for our phone.
Darchstar?
Nexus S and Gingerbread are both underwhelming to say the least. Color me disappointed.

+1 I thought the ui was gonna be badass. Not much of a change I am kinda curious about the obb memory management. Cyanogen is saying no pony on his tweets??? Just a heads up they changed where the adb.exe is

3.0 is probably going to be the one that has more of a UI change, pretty sure it was at least semi-confirmed a while ago that 2.3 wouldn't be a drastic change.

Yeah I read somewhere about one of the tablet makers saying that they weren't gonna release their tablet till honeycomb comes out because 2.3 isn't much of an upgrade. I just was hoping.
Here's a video I made of the gingerbread sdk. Remember I was tired.

To be fair though, .1 updates are never huge upgrades, just have back-updates and various new features that generally aren't massive (1.5 > 1.6, 2.0 > 2.1, 2.1 > 2.2, etc etc).The tablet remark makes sense, because if what's been said on various tech sites in the past is true, 3.0 will be made with tablets in mind, as opposed to 2.2/.3, which are not really optimized for tablets at all. Personally, I'm a bit excited to see what happens with NFC, as I am sort of into the idea of never carrying a credit card again.
Does 2.3 have requirements? I heard that either 2.3 or 3.0 will but I think its gonna be 3.0 since its a .7 update instead of a .1 update.

This isn't always the case but in general naming practice the code base for a X.1, X.2, X.3, X.N, series of a program are the same and the revision steps are bug fixes and maybe small upgrades. When a name changes from 1.X to 2.X that usually indicates a major revision to the base code such as a rewrite.
Such as, 1.5 to 1.6, minor step, few new goodies mostly bug fixes, 1.6 to 2.1, major jump tons of changes and bug fixes, 2.1 to 2.2, mostly bug fixes but also included major Dalvek VM upgrade, the step from 2.2.1 to 2.3 is mostly bug fixes and a few updates. The next major revision should be 3.0 and from what I have read and heard it will have a major focus on larger format applications beyond cell phones such as Tablets and Media devises such as Tv's and Google Tv.
well the evo devs are already working on a rom for us. glad i bought an evo when i did. i don't think the hero can handle 2.3.

That would be odd.
My phone seems to handle each update better than the last.

I don't get excited about MIUI, considering the bug fixing rate they give us!
But, no, this is the deal! Offical page releases it, they tweeted also!

What do u mean? has it been released yet? Cause I doubt that
TBH if you want that buy an iPhone.
I used Miui, and while it's good it just feels lacking. I'm not sure if it's the fact it's neither Android nor iOS, but I find myself installing ASOP or something like CheckROM.
Now ICS has been released and it has a much better UI I think MIUI is going to take a hit.
