Hi there, i'm using a UK GSM Htc Hero and i have been patiently waiting for the 2.1 update to arrive! I noticed many people on here said the first update out of the two had arrived, and looking at the official HTC website, the actual 2.1 update is available. Now my problem is i'm using a standard Hero on 3, and i am yet to recieve any OTA updates at all!! my friend has a standard hero on T Mobile and hes already downloaded the first half of the update! what am i doing wrong???!!
thanks in advance, i am in the proccess of rooting right now.
Depends which network you are on...
If your are like me and stuck with T-mobile then I estimate a minimum of a week (they are testing it right now)
Orange: Expected in the "near future" again minimum of 1 week
Three: They confirmed it is going to be released Mid to late July...

Thanks a lot for the reply, its a shame they do this, first US gets the update and finally when it's available in the UK we have to wait even longer. I actually rooted my Hero today and installed the official 2.1 update with root access, its very good
I'm on T-Mobile, but I couldn't be bothered to wait for T-Mobile to release their version of 2.1 as they'll long it out, so I just used a generic HTC rom and ta-dah! 2.1 on my G2 Touch

Wow...
Never knew you could do that...
So where did you get the ROM from?
And
What will happen when T-Mobile release the update?

Ok, so I am confused.
I bought a Streak directly from dell back in August. Without an ATT Plan. Just the phone.
I later on updated to O2 1.6-> O2 2.1-> Steve 1.1.1-> Steve 1.3
All was good. Till I decided I wanted to go back to my original build after seeing that 2.2 was out for Streaks bought directly from Dell.
So I followed the instructions in the "Upgrading & Downgrading" thread and got back to ATT 1.6
Only when I check for an update is says there is not one.
Now is this because it's not out yet for anyone, or because I'm using the ATT 1.6 that the "Upgrading & Downgrading" thread supplied which is not what was originally on my phone?
Hopefully you can understand my confusion.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
Basically, as far as I can tell, the update isn't out for the standard US streaks bought on the original launch date. It appears the Beta units have an update out, as do European Unlocked Streaks. So for now, its the waiting game. I've heard the date of Dec 3rd for USA Streaks, as thats when Best Buy says Streaks purchased there will come with 2.2
So my phone is still considered unlocked even after flashing the 1.6 in the upgrade/downgrade guide? I guess this is my overall concern. I'm worried that what it calls the ATT 1.6 is an ATT rom and not the rom that my phone came with straight from Dell.
Hey, got a text from CarphoneWarehouse yesterday about the HTC EVO3D finally being available here in London. Was so excited when I read it > planning to go and get it off them tomorrow on contract with t mobile (upgrade).
Question: have the bugs from the US evo3d been fixed in the European one and are there any differences in our one? Like the gold/bronze trim n Android 2.3.4 right out of the box.
Those who have it, can you guys sum up how much you love your phone and why it's so awesome, so I can get a bit more hyped up (this will also help put any doubt in my mind to go away)
Thanks!
Can't wait to get this phone! :-D
PS. I'm upgrading from a rooted android 2.3.5 Oxygen Rom HTC Desire (original)
its the best, just get it.
Yup just got it on an 18 month contract with CarphoneWarehouse (on t-Mob) - They said its an unlocked phone
Any recommendations guys n gals?
EDIT:Oh yeah I just ordered this case http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0053Z60W4

they said "fall"
Autumn?
Hi manishabanzadeh
I don't think Orange UK would have said "Fall", Autumn maybe but not fall.
In reality, Orange UK are quite often one of the slower operators to push any sort of software update, and I can remember as far back as the Nokia 6310i
Cheers

I have to agree with andrew-in-woking, Orange UK were one of the very last to roll out Nodo, though Microsoft have been putting pressure on operators to release Mango very soon. The problem with Orange is that within the company everything is a 'need-to-know' basis. Most of the workers at Orange didn't even know that Nodo had been released until after the rollout. I've asked customer service and in store and either they have no idea what Mango is or they just can't get an answer from above on the release date. It's quite disappointing really, makes O2 start to shine a little more. Oh well, at least we got wp7 first
Orange UK being helpful... not:
@mattgarner Hi. I'm sorry but we don't have a release date at this time. As soon as we have an update, we'll let you know ^Jon

The update doesn't come from orange - it comes directly from microsoft
U can use the nodo forced update trick to force the update through - I've been running Mango since yesterday on my Orange branded HTC Mozart
Hi all, I have one hour to decide whether to buy One or not, but t-mobile locked version only. I need to know what's the latest version that t-mobile One has, 1.26? 1.27?
thanks

In the US, 1.27, afaik. That's what's on mine. I don't think anyone in the US has 1.29, though that's what's now available in some parts of the world.
Thanks. So, you believe 1.29 could come soon on worldwide T-Mobile One too?

1.29 is currently available in some countries. There are links here, or at least in the vanilla HTC One forum for RUUs available for 1.29 now, though what their compatibility is with the T-Mobile version of the phone is, I'm not sure.
Coming at it from a different angle, custom ROMs for the One can have Android 4.2.2 right now, but that means giving up Sense, if that matters to you.
I wouldn't want to root it right now, thanks for the info.
Of course I have to be out of luck.
At 8PM I entered T-mobile and asked a lady if they have HTC One, she said "Yes we do, LTE version.", I said "great", of course. Since they work till 9PM, I wanted to ask the above mentioned question here, before deciding whether to buy it or not.
Finally, about 8:45PM I decide to buy it. Headed straight to T-mobile again, said I wanted to renew my subscription and buy the HTC One. She brings me HTC One SV. After a few attempts to explain her the difference, she said "ahhh, that One! We don't have it, it didn't arrive yet and we don't know when will we get it!".
Turned around and headed home.
Good work HTC
Hello guys, 2 days back got new one X + .I ordered from eBay & seller told me it's a international version. when I received I first checked for the update as it was running on 4.1.1. It showed phone is upto date. I installed cid getter & found cid is 11111111 & my [ro.aa.cidlist]: [TELUS001] , [ro.aa.project]: [EVITARE_UL_JB_45]. This means this is not international version it's a Telus variant . now I'm worried will I ever get an update because I'm here in India
Word on the street is that AT&T and Telus users will get the update within the next few months (Q4). Once the devs get their hands on it, you'll have something to flash pretty quickly.
So assuming we get the update, you'll get the update as well. Be patient, my friend
Isn't that supercid, cause as far as I know you will need to change the cid to a normal one to get the update?
