Maybe I'm just an ass, but I find it funny that all those guys that were bragging about getting a 2.1 leak before us will now not be able to root if they already installed the 2.1 leak. hehehehe

Yeah that is pretty damn funny! I feel bad for them though.

Won't be so funny if it turns out we're in the same boat on the Hero, eh?

Well there is no way I'll do the official 2.1 update. Our devs will have something much better the day after it comes out anyways.

List of Phones slated to get Froyo

http://www.androidcentral.com/officially-unofficial-android-22-upgrade-list
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.

Yeah it's bull**** IMO. Im sick of the hero being treated like an ugly step child because of the almighty evo. It's bull**** we won't get a froyo update either.

This is my 1000th post! Yeah... I just sort of figured this was worth making a thread! Don't donate to me or anything, the only thing I ever did the was even 500 miles within good was the souffle roms. But... yeah, 1000 posts! Ironically, this also happened at midnight exactly!

Yes. I am in the mood for a cookie right now. I just got back from a week-long vacation... except it had no TV or internet (couldn't even tether, I was roaming with 1 bar at best and 1X) and I could use a chocolate chip mood swing ermmm cookie.

how about a gingerbread cookie

[Q] Serious ?

Is it wrong for me to wanna make love to my phone with all these new ROM's, themes, etc. that everyone keeps coming out with?
Should I have put this in Q&A?

I guess it is.

Now now now... to be fair, I've sat there with my Hero comparing speeds vs and Epic and Evo, while it's definitely slower it's not slow enough on CM6RC1 to make anyone go "I would definitely prefer an Evo or Epic" unless you were A. A geek like most on here B. A and C. B.

Funny how as soon as fixxxer disappeared markus showed up.. and denied being the same person. Now that fixxxer has mysteriously and suddenly reappeared markus_del_marko's account is disabled for no apparent reason...
Did anyone ever watch Arsenio Hall?
Things that make you go "hmmmm".....

How could I not? He stirred up more bull$h1# in the Hero forum than anyone I've ever seen.
I won't post any of the PM's I got from markus.. or fixxxer. But I do still have them.
I'll leave it alone now, I just have a lack of ability to ignore bullcrap, what can I say..
I hope fixxxer/markus likes his job with Sprint, sounds like a fun gig. But I hope to hell he doesn't get an EVO, and if he does and starts spreading his particular brand of antagonistic, unhelpful negativity around the EVO forum like he did here in the Hero forum then then I imagine I may just end up catching another ban..
Sorry to see he's back, wish he would get an iPhone, that's all.

LOL i think your right neb..
