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

I am looking at adding the BAMF GingerREMIX v2.0 Beta #6 rom to my Thunderbolt tomorrow. I am wondering if this is one rom that I need to put the Gingerbread Radio on? Any help would be appreciated
yes ... use either of the new ginger radios. you'll love it!
But instead of flashing the beta, pick up the 2.1 remix or 2.1 standard.

standard

know that the phone and app icons on the dock have been switched. if you want to have it normal, download and flash the Rosie patch that puts them in their normal placement. patches can be found on both pages. also thew sense 3.0 camera is nice as well!
Are there specific themes that only work with BAMF GingerREMIX 2.1 or will the one's from the other BAMF Remix be applicable in this current ROM. Kinda new to rooting so I don't want to flash something thats going to turn my phone into a paper weight. Just looking to change things up, but I love the GingerREMIX 2.1 ROM.
Hello. Is there any way to acquire the stock Gingerbread launcher, such as the one included with the new OMFGB ROM so that it can be used as the default in CM7? I absolutely hate ADW and Launcher Pro because they are slow and have always been troublesome to use (at least they have been for me). I loved ROMs like CommRom and Evil Fascination because of their launchers which I assume are stock Gingerbread but I can't possibly go back after CM7 and OMFGB is a step backwards from CM7 at this point (i.e. the sensors are broken and deep sleep seems to be an issue again).
I believe what you're looking for is Launcher2. IIRC there's a link to an apk in the CM7 thread in the development section.
Ok so Launcher2 was not located in the CM7 thread but I did find a flashable zip file and it works perfectly! Thank you for the help!

I am running a CM7 2.3 version of GT540. Is there any place I can get the default 2.1 theme? I really miss it, it looked nice.
