Hello,
My phone info is as follows:
Model Number : HTC Hero
Firmware Version: 1.5
Baseband Version: 63.18.55.06EU_6.35.06.18
Kernel Version: 2.6.27-8dd6deee [email protected])
Build Number: 2.73.728.5 146733 CL#61267 release-keys
Software Version: 1.0.0.A6288
Its one of those East Asian version of the phone. I am not sure if I wanna update my phone to Modaco or the WWE Rom. Any ideas??
Also, if you could point me in the direction of how to go about with either one of those, that would be great.
Please any help in this matter will really be appreciated.
Thank You.
I think you are uptodate. You cant choose though.
To put Modaco Designer (I mean Rom) you have to perform certain ritual called "Root Way", as his roms are not RUU.
Thanks for ur reply Lucan. I dont know if I am up to date or not as yet, cuz for some reason I do not have market on my phone and I surely need to have that to get apps. I dont mind if I have to root my phone, just want to get a good custom rom that doesnt have much problems and has the access to market.
You mean no Market as apk? In that case I would first consult your network provider for their explnation if the said one also supplied your handset.
Or take a journey to Rootway.
Does anyone know when Orange HTC Hero users in the UK are getting the Android update from 1.5 ? Is it to 2.0 or 2.1 ?
I'd like to know if and when this will be available for my phone. Here's my phone details:
Firmware version: 1.5
Baseband version: 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.08.29
Kernel version: 2.6.27-430d1aea htc-kernel and18-2 #959
Build no: 2.73.61.66 CL#82177 release-keys
Software version: 1.0.0.A6288
I don't really need to unlock my phone and would like to wait for an official release. Sorry if this is a dumb question but I'm a noob and there's no info on the HTC support site.

Definitely. Have a play whilst your waiting, try some different ROMs.
Use BTDAG's guide linked in my signature, it has everything you need to know. I recommend it to any beginner.
Thanks for the info guys. I think I'll wait if it's just going to be a couple of weeks.
Just phoned HTC Support. They said there's no official confirmation of the release details, but unofficially, here's what they said to expect:
* v2.1 to be released. Release scheduled for June. Wouldn't be more specific about date.
* Improved bluetooth implementation, inc file transfer.
* Release likely to comprise of preparatory updates, followed by main ROM update.

Thanks to Geoff M for setting this up. Sorry, but this forum site won't let me post a link.
Hello!
I got this phone for free, can I update it to Android 4.2? If somebody can point me to a tutorial (topic), I found several but since I'm new to the mobile world I'm kinda afraid of ruining the device. I think it's unlocked since I can put any chip on it without a problem.
Model

Android version

Hardware version
1.1.0
Thank you!
PS: It shows no updated available, even after lifehacker .com/5946585/force-an-android-device-to-check-for-a-system-update
If the force update shows that this phone doesn't have a update available. Their might be some unofficial roms which are released by people other than your carrier but this might need you to root and install a recovery on your phone but it is highly unlikely due to the fact that this phone is a clone and doesn't have as big of a user base as the originals.
