Nowhere there did it mention the Sprint HTC Hero.

Someone else, already posted in another thread, screenshots from Sprint's database, clearly stating the update in May.

This article (link) states that Sprint has been telling customers early May.

Seriously. Thanks to these guys, I'm so happy with my phone now I don't care if they ever *OFFICIALLY* release 2.1

I wonder what the screenshots of this mean then

Please before you start yet another thread about when the update is coming, follow the link in your reference article. If you would have, then you would have seen that this was referring to the hero in the UK and not the sprint hero.

i think it's funny how many "official" news comes out, with the umpteen "in the know" employees and stuff surfing these forums... maybe I should put a "" around employees as well...
I'll believe it when I see it

I called the 26th of April

Look what I just found 10 minutes ago........

Eric Schmidt has even started his speech yet, has he?

He has started it. You can watch it live; http://www.web2summit.com/web2010/public/content/livestream
I don't think Gingerbread is going to be shown off at the Summit. When he started his talk he had a Nexus S with him and gave a preview of some chip technology which allows products to be purchased with a phone.
They've moved away from talking about Android and he said Gingerbread is going to be released in the next few weeks.
EDIT: You can read about the chip technology here; http://goo.gl/O1QPV

If I have rooted and have customed rom ???
Can I still update without going back to 2.1 ???

Wow. There are a few people in here that haven't bothered to check the 2.2.1 OTA Staus thread or The Froyo OTA and all you need to know thread.

Either Odin back to DI18, or wait for a dev to cook a clockwork compatible update.zip or a full .tar file.

Oh, I see that the Sprint admin posted that.
Hopefully that is a typo and he meant 9AM. A couple people have already gotten the update.

I guess you go to about phone and update firmware and if the firmware is ready it will give it to you?

Personally I am doubting that the rumors of anyone getting the update already are true. I can't imagine that with as many people who are watching and waiting for this that nobody who is on any of these forums has gotten anything yet.
I have been sitting here toggling back and forth between forums thinking just that and then I saw the 9pm time and it all made sense.

From what I gather that is the same person. I have found no confirmation of anyone that has actually installed the update.

Nexus 7 to get 5.0 lollipop Nov 12th

According to this source
http://www.idigitaltimes.com/androi...xus-7-nexus-10-nexus-4-get-ota-rollout-394243

If it does happen I doubt deb will be included but rather 1-2mo later.

And what's their source? Seems they just pulled that date out of the air. What's the justification?

not yet - refreshing like mad. I'm assuming they mean 12th Nov US time, with someone flicking the switch when they get into work. A few hrs yet before that happens...

I read on G+ that they will publish the system images at 2pm EST, no idea if it's true or not. I'm also refreshing like crazy.

He meant his reviews (of L and of the Nexus6) will be posted...
The OTAs should be starting however. Hopefully the images will follow soon.

Yeah, I read it again after you asked and realized that... Had my hopes up too much I guess. But Google announced it only an hour past 2pm...

it has begun

And exactly as was predicted here by me and many others: deb (LTE) not getting the lollipop treatment.
I also guess it's not going to be any time soon...running an AOSP build that works perfectly fine, so it's not thaaaat bad...still disappointing.

Q Beta/Preview or 9.1 Release Imminent?

Over the years I've noticed that just prior to a release of a Preview or incremental numeric progression, Google's apps undergo a flurry of updates. Seems like there's been a ton of updates to Google apps over the last week or so. Just speculating. Wanted to point it out. I think we're going to see one or the other on the first March Monday or Wednesday. The first P Preview was released on March 7 (a Wednesday) last year.

You definitely have a point, all of a sudden almost all Google apps are getting updates. Let's see what we have in store for us.
Cheers

March is very likely. The last 3 previews have been released in March.

Allegedly Android Q supports it.

I'm guessing it'll drop along with the March Security update tomorrow.
Maybe.

...and the issue tracker is inaccessible.
...probably Wednesday, if at all this week (hope I am wrong).
Doubt it'll hit before next week though.
