Hi everyone
I just bought an unlocked (I think since it is working in Pakistan) Orange branded HTC Hero yesterday. The specs are:
Firmware Number: 1.5
Build number: 1.76.61.3
Software Version: 1.0.0.A6288
I was wondering which update should I use to update it? Do I need the Orange one or the generic one? which is the latest available update?
Noob here for Android, all help highly appreciated, and needed urgently
Thanks
At a guess the Orange ROM. Check by entering your Hero serial number into the appropriate area on the HTC update page.
Would that lock the phone again? or can i still use it here in Pk?
Not sure TBH.
It shouldn't do - unlocked mine before updating using Orange update ROM and it is still unlocked after update.
which version did you upgrade to and what process did you use to unlock?
Are you using your phone in UK and/or with Orange?
I got my handset on contract with Orange UK, unlocked with a code from http://htcunlocking.co.uk/HTC/Hero, updated to software 2.73 with the Orange Specific update from the HTC UK Support site and still use both Orange UK / Lebara Mobile / Vodafone Italy cards in it.

Can I install any firmware on my X10?
At the moment I have a german X10 with Baseband 1.0.14.
Can I upgrade to 1.0.16 without any problems?
Yes, when you have an branded Version, u must use the instructions to debrand it. But u can upgrade without any Problems. When Your phone is unbranded use the Sony Ericsson Update service, it will find the update. Save your old frimware when u decide to debrand it, so u can brand it back for warranty reasons.
Sounds great.
You have to know, that this is my first Android device. Before, I jsut used webOS and WinMo.
What tools do I need do 1. drebrand, 2. save the old firmware and 3. put the new firmware on the device?
I'm using a Mac, but can use Windows if needed.
Thanks for answer

This might be a stupid question but I'm running R1FA016 (was originally running R1FA014, Vodafone UK but flashed the phone) however when I go into the service menu it states that it's customized. I was under the impression that R1FA016 is unbranded.
To get into the service menu press menu, back, back, menu, back, menu, menu, back when the phone is locked.
I'm getting my info from the first option 'Model Info'.
Any ideas or am I being stupid?
I have R1FA016 version x10, bought it from o2 in uk, its not sim locked and it doesnt apear to be branded either, but it says customized too

Running Brazil firmware on X10i, Tmobile US. Everything is peachy... testing now.
I just received the notificiation that there was an update available.
I'm installing it now. It was named "HTC update".
Anybody having an idea what's in it?
Can't seem to find anything yet
I allready was on 7392. So don't look at the OS version. It remained the same after the update. Maybe it has something to do with the bootloader or radio? Maybe interesting for ansar?
This is the phone information afterwards:
OS Version: 7.0.7392.0
Firmware revision number: 2250.21.13301.111
Hardware revision number: 0004

Radio hardware version: A.102.0.D4
Bootloader version: 1.33.2250.1(123643)
Yes, the bootloader version and radio software version is different to the first 7932.
OS Version: 7.0.7392.0
Firmware revision number: 2250.09.13001.401
Hardware revision number: 0004

Radio hardware version: A.102.0.D4
Bootloader version: 1.33.2250.1(117833)
But I don't have an update at the moment.
Also I have received the notificiation for this update on the Zune.

Just got a notification about an HTC Update for my phone. Orange UK but I unlocked it so I could use it for O2 UK.
Any benefits of this update at all?
I'm on Orange UK and my phone just got HTC phone updates. but seems like nothing different than before.
unbranded HTC 7 Mozart. Malaysia. Just got the update today. Some sites say the update include better call quality overall and battery life improvements. In the process of updating atm.
update: done. will see what becomes of the battery life and call quality. though the camera now has autofocus on by default so you dont have to keep playing with the hardware button to focus in.
update2: check wpcentral for the update info. cant post URLs "yet"
Caution: Don't update when you changed micro SD card
My Mozart have replaced 32GB Class 4 Sandisk and no any problem before updated.
After updated, the phone always reboot and show the error "you micro sd is non-compliance"
Now trying restorse to before updated.
hi am new to the mozart scene, i am on o2 an want to unbrand my phone so i can see its potential, i am wanting to know where to find the rspl and hspl, and the best way to do this. many thanks paul
Hi, so I recently updated via the send cab program, the 2250.21.51101.401 update from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1429339
However because it is .401 it is generic HTC Europe.
Is there an equivalent Orange UK one, or know what the latest Orange UK one is?
The .061 release.
Coz I am missing the Orange Apps from the marketplace. and would like to have them back. Thanks!
The latest I could fine is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1281195

Hi jamieostrich
Unfortunately Orange UK have blocked Internet Sharing so you won't be able to get that on stock Orange UK firmware.
The latest Orange UK firmware that I have seen downloadable is this one: http://www.filefactory.com/file/c09..._1.30.061.01_5.54.09.21_22.33b.50_RELEASE.exe
There are two options to get this functionality. Firstly, developer unlock your device and then interop unlock it (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1271963).
Then install this software: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1271264 I had a little trouble with the driver because the Hardware ID for the Orange UK branded Mozart is different to the normal HTC branded software. The work around is to examine the Hardware ID in Device Manager and then manually edit the driver .ini file accordingly. There are guides linked in the app thread.
The second option for you is to debrand your device which you can do as per here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1002391 However, by doing that you will not get the Orange marketplace and Orange Maps, which is the deal breaker for me.
Cheers

Hiya, sorry but I dont know where you get the idea that you cannot get the Orange Apps. I have ran both the unbranded Rom and i am currently using a custom rom and all i need to do is downlaod the apps manually. i.e. Orange maps and orange wednesday. Just search for one of them then in the description look for the part that says more from orange and click that, That will then take you to all that orange do. even the ones they did give away free. However I have noticed that I can no longer get all of the free stuff they had on offer any more. but not sure if thats because they have removed them or not. But I haven't used a stock rom for months. Hope this helps.
hey guys,
can anyone tell me if Android 2.3.5 ----- Blur_Version.651.73.30.XT910.Retail.en.EU is the latest for uk?
what i'm trying to ask is i'm from australia and due to some issues i have flashed to the UK version.
on my AUS version i got an OTA which improves camera and gave a game bewjeweled 2.
however on the UK i have there are no updates, so does that mean i either already have it? or ota is not available for UK yet?
thanks!
I'm in the UK with a SIM free Razr and that is the newest version that is available OTA for me
It's the latest official EU non branded firmware, yup.
I ordered an unlocked atrix 4g new from amazon, 331$ i think i made a good deal, but the catch was that i received the german version (O2 operator) and now i'm not able to upgrade to stock gingerbread firmware, so, is possible to make some kind of downgrade to any AT&T version so in the future i could update normally to gingerbread and ics?
About my atrix:
Version.4.4.20.MB860.O2.en.DE
Android version: 2.2.2
And yes, is rooted and bootloader is unlocked.
Thanks in advace...
