Updating ROM for UK Orange Hero

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.

SHOULD I EXPECt AN UPDATE VIA OTA ?

I bought HTC hero from Orange,UK. Got it to india….unlocked it….using dis fone from last 3 month in India with Vodafone sim. my rom build which i'm having is 2.73.61.66 (ORGANGE) and firmware is 1.5
should i expect an update of 2.1 now???????
blja, of couse you should!
can I install WWE ROM on my Orange Carrier Hero?
you can ..and you can wait for Orange update.

[Q] Updating Radio etc....

I just bought an OEM HTC Mozart, and once I started it it pretty much immediately told me that an update was available. I updated via Zune the Feb Update, and again it asked me to update again, so I updated the March Update.
So in effect I have NoDo, which is pretty cool.
However, I think I still have the old Radio's:
Firmware 2250.09.12902.707
Radio 5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10U
Bootloader 1.28.2250.3(113810)
Is that the latest Radio and Firmware?
Is there a way to just update the Radios and Firmware?
Please Advise.
Radio firmware will be pushed out via Updates AFTER you've got the NoDo update. HTC are currently pushing out updates for the HD7 & the Trophy.
Great!! Thanks for the info man!!

HTC Europe ROM and 7740.16

I am running the HTC Europe ROM by anser... I got a notification the other day about an HTC ROM update. So I applied it through zune.
My version number for WP7.5 is still 7720.68, for some reason I am not getting the 7740.16 update.
My boss on Vodaphone official rom got a notification, I applied it for him and it downloaded the 7740.16 update first then the HTC ROM update.
Anyone know what's going on and why I am getting the HTC update and not the 7740.16
Additional Comment
I have tried forcing the update via Zune but nothing comes up as available.
HTC updates are only firmware updates and has nothing to do with WP7.
The new WP7 build 7740 will not be delivered to all phones at the moment, it is only delivered by a few carriers in a few regions. When/if you get that update it will be branded as a Windows Phone update and not a HTC update.

I know the 2 updates are different. I was just stating my boss's phone did 7740.16 and then the HTC in 1 hit.
My phone didn't. It skipped the 7740.16 and just did the HTC update.
I flashed the HTC debranded Europe ROM (by anser) so that I would get updates direct from Microsoft to prevent having to wait for my carrier to release the updates but it would seem Vodaphone UK are rolling out 7740.16 before Microsoft.
That can't be right

OTA Security Update (Asia WWE)

Hi,
I am planning to root my EVO 3D GSM this weekend.
However, just this morning I received the notification from HTC that there is an update relating to security fix via OTA. It said that my current stock rom 1.22.707.3 will be updated to 1.22.707.4.
Should I update it before unlocking and rooting?
Thanks in advance
