Hello.
I have a very old Hero and got interested in updating it.
I see that Gingerbread 2.3.3 is the latest version, however I don't find any ROM that has it, I only find TastyGinger 1.x which has 2.3.2, why not 2.3.3? And it turns out that the new TastyGinger release (2.0) is marked as "2.3" instead of "2.3.2", does it have an older Android or what?
I've seen also that a lot of people say that Flash doesn't work on Hero. However it's working in mine (Android 1.5), is this because it's Flash Lite? How can I know that? Will the new Gingerbread ROMs include this version of Flash?
Thanks very much.
Hi there
Flash only works with sense roms (Sense is graphic UI that You have probably on Your 1.5 hero). It's flash lite, not full version.
Regarding gingerbread roms - Tasty Ginger haven't received an update for a while.
Gingerbread roms won't include flash, unless some genius dev (with help of few Igors and a trusty thunderstorm) creates a sense gingerbread ROM...but don't hold Your breath, it's almost impossible
cheers!

PS. if You need working flash - try some of the custom 2.1 roms. VillainROM12, RCMix to name the few. I remember that there is 2.2 ROM with sense, but camera is not working on that one.
I can recommend elelinux 7.0 roms, and Cyanogen 7 rom.
Both u can find on this site ( under 'development' for hero)
elelinux rom works very well
Root that Hero and put Cronos Ginger on it. latset build is a 2.3.3

My girlfriend uses my Hero with Elenux 7 and the flykernel. It seems to be stable.
Elelinux 7.0.0 rc2 is rlly stable also is cm7 nightly 18 and if you are looking on a rom with flash tht is updated u can try VillianRom 13 or Tegro 2.5rc3 which are both sense one rosie and other expresso consecutively
the flykernel 12a that i unloaded of XDA no works in any of gingerbread roms, there´s anyone person that have the same problem???
my RADIO IS 63.18.55.06SU_6.35.17.03 THANKS!!!!!
Elelinux 7.0.0-RC2-Hero-v1.5... Works perfect.
elelinux gingerbread rom is great...but I recommend a 2.3.2 rom instead...
there is a memory leakage bug that makes my phone unstable in 2.3.3 roms
elelinux v1.6 just came out yesterday, which presumably fixes the leak. I just installed it a few minutes ago, going to test it now

i was flashed elelinux 7.0.0 RC1 and RC2 BUT THE flykernel 12a doesnt works in my hero. i think that its a interface trouble only in my device.
any person with the same problem? i´m going to lookintg for another kernel and later go to post it here?
desire mee good luck!!!!
ei! i´m with RAKERN 113 with gingerbread (elelinux 7 rc2) ane works fine... a little bit of battery drain but.... it´s a little sacrifice for a good performance.
elinux 7.0 is smooth. it does not have any problem on my hero starting from v0.7 to v1.6

here the original comment.
Hey I have a rooted HTC Glacier and was trying to get this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19647942&postcount=547 working on it. Any1 else successful?
Rom: CM7.1.0 Build GWK74
So installed a Runnymede ROM , I already had CM7 installed so I wanted a change followed the footsteps and now I only get a black screen that says android on white and it's flashing on and on and it only stops when I take out the battery. I tryed to get back on HTC Desire official gingerbread 2.3 rom but I get this screen
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
L.E. fixed the problem.
So in a nutshell let me explain what I'm looking to do. I had a CDMA HTC Hero, I loved that device, sadly it was stolen and I moved onto a HTC Thunderbolt. I loved the design of the GSM Hero and wished the CDMA one looked like it...and now that my Android app development is progessing I figure I'd use this an excuse to buy a GSM Hero..as a test device for older android versions. With that said, I'm having difficultly finding all the roms I would like...
I found in my search, CM6 (2.2) and CM7 (2.3), plenty of Sense GB and ICS...what I would like help in finding is the:
Original Stock - Sense/1.5
1.6 (Sense or AOSP)
2.1 (Sense AND AOSP)
So if you have old threads bookmarked or even the zips themself that would be awesome. thanks!

Android 1.6 was not officially released for this device. HTC jumped from 1.5 directly to 2.1 so I don't think you'll find much 1.6.
