Hey guys! Every android phone is getting 2.2 exept the hero. But don't worry.... we'll give you an updated 2.1 that fixes sprint TV and NFL mobile....... The crowd goes wild!
If they really are only releasing an updated 2.1 then they really are major a-holes.

Not true. We would need a Legend/Aria/MT3G Slide 2.2 ROM to port it over. IIRC, the Desire has an ARMv7 processor while the Hero has an ARMv6 processor

True... my point is.. its been out longer.. plus it is not healthy to dwell over something like this. 2.1 works... 2.2 will get here. it seems the more impatient everyone around here is, the longer it takes.

I mean, we know it's coming. And now with hardware locked vibrants fixed, there's nothing keeping you from playing with leaked or custom froyo roms until the official OTA update is released. And if they pull a Behold on us, well... T-Mo's sold too many Vibrants to not care.

Android 2.3 will be announced on HTC Legend?

So, your opinion about
Will Android 2.3 be announced for the HTC Legend?
So. I ask the question and got the answer
from: HTC <[email protected]>
to: me
Yes, from time to time the software is being updated, and it will continue in the future. Unfortunetely now we can not say exact date of next update.

I'm willing to bet it won't happen. Why would HTC release a brand new iteration of the Android OS on older hardware? They've got very little to gain from doing so.
I used to think that it'll never happen, but with the announcement of the HTC Salsa, the facebook phone with the same specs of the Legend but with android 2.3 inside, now I hope that HTC make arrangements to adapt that version of HTC sense to the legends, maybe without the facebook things
That is my only hope against a company that make new phones so often. U.u

If anything it'll just make 2.3 Sense based ROMs easier to create for the Legend, really. I doubt much else will come of it.

I hope you know same "specs" in marketing materials probably means the hardware is way different and that someone would actually have to write drivers for 2.3 and Legend hardware...not gonna happen IMHO, not by hands of HTC anyway...

If I can overlook it, so can you.
For the record, it should be this:
Will Android 2.3 be announced for the HTC Legend?
Just imagine Yoda's voice when you read the original phrasing, and it's all good.
On topic: Looking forward to official 2.3 tomorrow!
Not even Yoda would say it like that
TGF: You're right about the title, what I meant was: "No, you're crazy?" Which for the record should be: "No, are you crazy?"
But don't mind me, I just felt in the mood
I think there will not be an 2.3 update
but i hope it will be
so. the only difference between newer HTC phones in the class the same like a Legend - it's ONLY RAM. Thats all.
Next point. Dev's guys from Google sais that the phone with official working (announced) of Android 2.2 phone FULLY will support Android 2.3, coz there is no hardware requirements MORE than in the FroYo. So...i feel this smell.. you no? We have all possibility for this... We can get it.
Why not? Maybe this process will be in a few times more than for Desire-like phones (1st gen.) But it CAN be. I'm a mistaken? Where?

What's up with our GB release??

So, its been 5 days since our official release of gingerbread but only two roms are using it. Hell I'm even running a Rom built off the shift port. Is it junk or something?? I figured by now, we would have a ton of devs using it. Not trying to raise Hell, just curious. Figured a Rom built off of it would be much more stable and faster than a port from another phone.

I'd guess that its because it is only sense 1.0. MikG and Synergy are both solid and stable, and they have sense 2.1. I think that for most people, going back to sense 1.0 isn't acceptable. Especially when the shift ports are as stable as they are. I'm sure someone will work on the OTA rom though.

Thanks. I wasn't aware it was sense 1.0. That's really disappointing. As for the comments about the release date being the 9th, what makes a difference? Is it gonna change in some drastic way? I doubt it.

Nope.
We're loving the recent push of Android 2.3 Gingerbread updates, and the latest group to get a sweet taste of the Gingerbread will be HTC Evo 4G owners.
Sprint announced this morning that it will begin rolling out an over-the-air update on June 6 to deliver the latest software release. As usual, the update will come in batches and users will receive a notification on their smartphones to let them know when the update is ready for download.
However, if you simply can't wait, there will be a manual download option starting June 3, where you can access the update by going to the Menu option on the Evo 4G and then selecting Settings > System updates > HTC software update. You can find more details and instructions on Sprint's Community site.

Oh, one last thing. Cant Cyanogen use our release to make CM7 more stable?? I think sense roms and AOSP roms both have benefits that I like but its beyond me why Cyanogen cant get GPS to work without having to tickle your sphincter with your big toe everytime you switch roms.

We should have an uproar! We should be running the beta of Ice cream Sandwich as their should always be a beta available to everyone who wants it. Heck I want Android Version 5 just because outside of google no one knows about it.
