I guess that’s a way to look at it too… But HTC did promise us updates and people might have counted on those before purchasing the device…

Its RIDICULOUS. As in, that is how it is spelled.

you are all silly. the hero is the same phone it was WHEN YOU BOUGHT IT. Its just as good. just as bad. just the same. be glad they are updating it at all, and just wait. It isn’t like you are paying for the update, is it?

You can run the hero ruu and get back to stock radio. I have tried and done it.

@101NEO: And how can I install it?

just so you know if you “root” your phone, you can “un-root” it as well.

i’ve rooted and loaded multiple custom roms. my favorite so far is DamageControl2.1. It’s mostly stable and works VERY well and is VERY smooth. I’ve also un-rooted and then re-rooted just to make sure it’s possible. the only thing you can’t “undo” is i you flash one of Fresh’s radio updates.

the tools are out there if you just do a little searching and poking around.

to be completely honest, i can care less about the “official” update from sprint. it’s going to be overloaded with their crappy software that’s mostly useless. once the official update comes out, i’ll wait 2 more days for one of the dev’s roms to get released and will be much happier with what i have. until then, DamageControl2.1 is the best one out there. IMHO anyway.

I guess it might…But I was under the impression that it was mostly a driver problem on my computer. And the error of having an up to date device could be fixed by install the out of the box firmware again before you try to install the official update

Hm, that can be an issue when the official 2.1 update will be released (finally)…

The problems occurred when I wanted to reinstall the official firmware. I had no problems with installing custom ROMs

@Sigrid: Which one did you try to install?

Anyone else had issues?

I think I saw that swedish post, but my understanding of the swedish language is limited. Let’s (not) hope HTC confirm that rumour.

The Swedish HTC department announced it somehow and a Dutch website then asked for confirmation through their own local HTC office. Unfortunately, the HTC customer service did confirm the Swedish rumor
