[Q] Just to be sure

Hi,
I bought my HTC Hero in holland.. i don't know what the differences are between HTC hero G2 or CDMA or Sprint Hero...
can anyone tell me so i can go to the right forum plz!
i want to install a ROM on it.
Thank you all!!
sorry for my english

Hero is the generic HTC phone. G2 is the T-Mobile branded phone, on which it is quite safe to install a generic hero rom. CDMA and sprint are north American variants and will brick your phone if you attempt to install roms written for them on your GSM hero.

Well thank you!
I have none of these i think.. no T-mobile and no north american variants. So is that safe also to install the g2 ROMs on my (kpn) phone wich i think is non-simlock.
Thanxx!

Maybe this is Official Android 4.0.4..

look at the letter "K" and i'd rather believe it a carrier-branded version

They need to do something. The 1.4GHz CPU in the Arc S should be more than capable or running ICS withiout lag, when you have 600Mhz phones like the new HTC Desire C running ICS...

wow thanks for your good news!
one question!
my phone have a nordic Rom (4.0.3), but i think my phone is from middle east, now if new update from sony be available , what version my phone gonna be get? (NC or ME?)

The leaked 4.1.B for the Xperia Pro was Android 4.0.4 so it is safe to assume this "k" release is 4.0.4 as well.

it's 4.0.3 for branded devices

Someone's seen my post! - still with no replies.
I posted this in the hope of finding out why I have a 'K' in the middle of by build number when everyone else seems to have an 'A'. I haven't update my phone in quite a few weeks so I don't know why the original post says it was only certified today.
If anyone knows how to root it, I'd be really grateful
