ota update

does anyone know when they gonna release the update ota.

sorry man, i haven't seen tmo release OTA updates for their WM devices. Most likely you'll have to download a RUU file and install it from pc.

There's an article on tmonews.com saying it's expected to drop today (5/18), but xtenpeben is right, it'll be a PC-based installer not OTA.

That update that the article was talking about was most likely the updated t-mo rom from this last week that's already been released.

Link is back up for the update for those that didn't get it the first go around.

Yes, it will probably just be the same one that was leaked last week...the article was just saying that Tmo would be "officially" releasing it today, and I've heard reports elsewhere that back that up.

ok,so is it worth updating to the new rom? i seened a lot of post from people talking about the problems with the new rom and rarely any positives so what do you guys think.

I'm giving it another week or two at least before I make the move. I think there's a lot of people who actually waited for the official release, so we'll start getting more feedback about it soon. You can call it "crowdsourcing the testing phase"...I'm waiting 'till I see more data

sirphunkee,im doing the same,i didnt really go through any of the issues tbat people were listing besides the data connection drop/switch(praying i don't jinx it) so it wouldn't kill me to wait a little longer,thanks for the feedback

Good idea And, if that's really the only issue you've had with the original ROM, you might be able to address it by flashing a new radio rather than a whole new ROM. I'm particularly waiting for that type of feedback on the new release...reception stability, etc.

Think I lost the part of my brain that lets you cope with delayed gratification some time ago....that's why I bought the Nexus!

Holy ****!!!!!!

Re: Froyo is officially released for the Nexus One!
Anyone from UK on stock? Are the Yanks the only lucky ones? Someone get me an update zip....! Please

America is fast asleep mate...and seems like the Americans are the ones getting an update. This Guy like he said just happened to be awake. Lets hope someone has a nightmare that Google died or something so they can wake up n post the ROM lol

This is the best news i heard today No AOSP??

Do you ever sleep? Or are you just waking up?

Are you more likely to get the update via 3g or over wifi?

11.45 am in the uk and your system is currently up to date ogh come on google ffs

I really really dont like this unroll in US first...
im so JEEEEELLLOOUUUUSSSSS (however the f*** that is spelled )

So far we have only got one report of an update, so it might not be US first, it could even be a mistake (really hope not!)
And yeah, its nearly midday here!

Thats funny, Ive been watching this for a couple hours on twitter trying to get the update here in the US. The first two I saw were European, one in Ireland, one in Frankfurt. I didnt know if they were true or not so i just kept my mouth shut. Good to see there true.

Guess what - its June tomorrow

...and what does that mean?
Sod all, I imagine

And it doesn't mean what we all wants... 2.1... it simply means that HTC will delay the release further and further... and ultimatley not at all...

Well Sprint and Verizon did get them...........

Well, at the end of the day I won't use the official HTC 2.1 ROM.
I'm very happy with Cronos Droid which gives excellent speed as well as root access, the latter never available with stock ROMs.

Some of the unofficial 2.1 ROMs with newer kernels are getting so good now that for those who root it really matters not. For me SenseHero is spectacular.

So, its June.
Where do we download the official 2.1 from then?

There will be no update to Eclair in June.
HTC will postpone the second OTA update to July, then to August etc.
We've been ****ed with and have to accept it.
HTC has stopped supporting GSM Hero. That is the bitter truth.

+1 for this, we're ****ed up with a support-****y company... but whatever, does any1 have the link with the official (and i mean the real official) News about the Hero which should get the 2.1 Android Update?
Regards

I don't know. I had the info from the E-mail support which, clearly, lied to me.

They said "early June" so let's wait for a few days...

Why not sign the 'Eclair Update Petition' on the Market? or join in the #wheresourheroupdate on Twitter!

I agree with bluesax, there is a lot of negativity to HTC's support - whilst I agree it is crap, we have given them 22hrs (using the international date line...) so far to provide from the start of June. Yes okay, they have messed us around, but it is too soon to start saying that they haven't given it to us yet, so we are obviously being fobbed off.
I trust (don't know why...) that they will give us the update, and hope they will releases patches as time goes on.
But that's just me.....

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.

Lol at both you. my post sure did provide a ton of proprietary, top secret information, bugs, unknown features etc about the upcoming release. Lighten up. Worrying about such little things will turn your hair grey early

We'd be so lucky to be the last to be pushed gingerbread after jha said we'd be among the first.

So does this mean the rest of us will get an update soon? I sure hope so..

Yes it means the real thing is coming in about a fortnight (according to what I've read, pls feel free to correct) after the SOAK testing starts

for those of us already unlocked and running a version of 4.5.91, is it even worth the hassle of trying to sign up for the soak, and get our phones ready? (if even possible with the possible brick above our heads)
or just stay with what we got and continue riding the wave? lol

I'm not signing up for this soak. Figure after all the hard bricks and such its probably not a smart idea to try the ota over an unlocked bl/ken's gb.

Been waiting for the official release, thanks for the update.

In the survey you completed previous to this one you agreed to keep all communications confidential. If you selected "no" to that question you would never have received this new notification.

It says keep private but it also says to share this link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/BG8FYV5
if you want to sign up for future/current soak.

Y'all are posting in a troll thread.
