Hi all,
I see that the "unofficial" official Android 2.1 update for the Sprint Hero was leaked out a few days ago but unfortuantely this does not install on the UK Hero.
Is there anyway to force install this ROM onto the UK Hero? Im a bit of a noob when it comes to flashing Android handsets.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan.
MOD EDIT - Moved to Q&A. Please post all future queries in the Q&A forum.

If I remember correctly, the Sprint Hero is a CDMA-device, so the 2.1 ROM is built for different (albeit very similar indeed) hardware. So it will not work (not properly, if at all) even if you do get it to flash. But rest assured, now that the official Sprint 2.1 ROM is out there, ROM cookers will probably dissect it and make it work for the GSM Hero.
And I believe now that the official GSM Hero 2.1 update isn't far behind anymore, just a matter of Google approving of it (and since HTC gave each localized version of the Hero its own SKU, Google has to approve of them per localization, something HTC has since fixed by using one SKU internationally for the Legend and one internationally for the Desire, but sadly, this is why updates for the Hero roll out so sporadically).
if it were useful, it would have been ported already. it's entirely possible you could force it to install but that could leave you with a non-functioning phone or one that's un-rootable... personally I'm gonna wait for the final release from here, once it's safe and tested. have patience!
i wouldnt even bother using a 2.1 rom untill we have a fully funcional kernel from source.Last night HTC Tweeted that....
HTC said:
Because we know how much you developers love source code...Legend, Incredible, Desire, and Eris(2.1) kernels are online. http://ht.ly/1MODf

So we will mroe than likely have to wait for there release of 2.1 before we can even get a taste of that sought after kernel

Hi all,
this my first time writing on the xda forums though I visit it often. I came across a chunghwa Taiwan ROM for the HTC hero. My question is can this be used in Singapore. I am a HTC hero user in Singapore. Or should I wait for the OTA update to be launched locally.
Thx to all in advance.

Well, thanks for that help. But, I currently do not want to root my hero coz its still under warranty ( may sound lame sorry). I am taling about an official ROM that I found on the xda forums. The prob is that its for taiwan and i do not know if it is safe for me to do here in Singapore. Will cause any compatibility issue.
Ps: I am planning to root in november wen my warranty ends.
Thx
If you ever wish to root, DO NOT INSTALL THE TAIWAN UPDATE.
DO NOT INSTALL ANY 2.1 OFFICIAL UPDATE FROM HTC
[/shout]
Basically, if you do, your plans for rooting in November will be spoiled, as once you install it, you can't root
im from singapore too... trust me just root it... wasting time for waiting officially update in sg is hell zzz... i usually using this 2 rom i most prefer is sense hero *speed, stable & theme* by stickman or villainrom *speed, stable & OTA* from team villain. this 2 is most best recommanded foc rom. as for register memeber for modaco rom *speed+, stable+ & support* using online kitchen also would be prefer. ( i no $$ to register T.T ) <<my personal opinion>>
Does that mean that I can no longer root my phone if i get 2.1? Is there like any security patch that comes together 2.1? Thanks for the info guys. I guess I will just root it. but Is there any issues related to privacy or security risks related to rooted ROMs?
Thx
You can make a goldcard for your phone, then root it. That way you can revert it to its original state for any warranty repairs.
Also, atleast here in norway, if there is a hardware warranty issue they have to fix it, even if its rooted, provided its not a direct result of rooting (Battery drain / overclocking).
Hi guys,
ao which rooted ROM do u guys think is the best for My HTC hero. Will there be any privacy or security related lapses in rooted ROMs? I have heard of VIllainRom. Is that the best possible?
Well, I can't exactly say I'm impartial, but if you are after live help etc. then villainRom may suit you with the irc channel. As for security, I am just as confident with it as I am with HTC stock ROM. I use it myself, as do many thousands of people.
If you are after villain, you can find most stuff either here or at www.villainrom.co.uk
But half the fun is to play with different ROMs and pick what suits you
Nandroid and enjoy
Hi guys, I am aware that we will have cusrom ROMs soon but I want to know if anyone is taking the initiative.
Thanks to our great members now we have root and recovery for our devices.
I am also waiting for ClearD to give me a backup of his stock ROM but the process seems slow so far.
I am more into stock-based ROMs, that's why I am asking for your thoughts and ideas here.
I'm relatively new to xda but would it be quickest to port some of the ROMs from other htc devices like maybe HTC desire 816 ? just a thought. Also I think this forum will get more popular as the handset is being offered as an upgrade on 3 UK atm.
There are a wealth of AT&T/HTC M8 ROM options in the development forum, but I'm a bit confused by the way devs keep a thread from March or April alive, updating to a new Android on the thread, rather than starting a new thread for a new major version.
Are any of the ROMs based on the newest release, complete with DotView and the good battery life of the stock unit? Is there a comparison list? Thanks.
Various reasons why devs update the same thread, instead of making a new one. But the main one is that once a ROM has been updated, the previous versions are essentially obsolete, and the intent is to move forward; not remain in the past.
"Newest release" is a slightly tricky question. The latest official AT&T release is 2.23, which was back from August. International and other carriers have updated to 3.x, but it hasn't rolled out on AT&T yet. Although 3.x has been released for the Dev Edition, which is intended to be used on AT&T's network.
Comparisons and discussions about battery life are also tricky. This is normally very subjective, and depends on how you use your phone and other factors (such as network reception).
For the most up-to-date release intended for AT&T, I'd recommend the ROM thread by Wonders_Never_Cease.
Thank you. The refreshing of old threads is a bit confusing to me; it's hard to track which data is new and which is six months old.
Probleme OTA
Hello, allow me to write my problem on this forum, having found no solution elsewhere.
Here I have a htc one m8 European version without over-layer operator 4.4.3 s-off and TWRP custom. (203 cid-Version 2.22.401.5)
I wish to put the ota, but I can not even following the tutorials.
Can I take a stock 4.4.3 rom to a custom rom (HD Revolution) 4.4.4?
thank you

This is not the correct place to post this. This forum section is specific to the US AT&T version.
Actually I have many question
I think when a newbie like me start to work on rom development then there are several questions arises in mind basically like what I am going to ask here, my purpose is to get all this doubts cleared before starting so that I can start to focus on things. I don't know if my questions will help other newbies like me but it will literally help me a lot .
I am trying to develop a custom rom for ascend g700 as i have seen it among the most hated device among developers , no one want to do anything for this phone and it can accomodate a lot of upgradation. I have seen g700 users begging inside CM forum to build a latest ROM for this device, I have also seen g700 owners begging on huawei website to upgrade their devices but huawei doesn't even feel like to give a word to it. and I feel really bad about this .
So i just want to build a good looking, working, clean, latest by look and feature rom for Ascend g700 for all users, there are various reasons why I want to do that:
1) One of the biggest reason why I am here is I want to see g700 users smiling with joy that finally somebody has updated their device, I want all g700 owners to feel worth buying the device.
2) No working custom rom is available for this device yet.
3) No Cyanogenmod rom available.
4) This device configuration seems potentially great which literally needs update (atleast up to kitkat).
5) And personally I don't like UI emotion of this phone besides that google play store has some bug which makes icons background looks black which is a sore to eyes, Huawei did nothing for this device yet except just earned the bucks from it. I hate the companies who are ignorant about their customers.
I don't want to bore anyone reading my thread but i have lots of questions to resolve before i start to develop something for this device and I hope i will succeed.
Okay so let's get started with my questions, all veterans are requested to kindly share their vast knowledge and help me understanding the facts. thanks in advance .
Objective: what i am trying to do is, trying to find out the latest possible (Lollipop) rom which I can use as base rom to flash this device (Ascend G700) or just build a custom one fully working.
1 First: Are there any neutral latest android rom versions are available from google official websites to start using on any device or to start develop it for any particular device?
If "yes" then from where i can get it?
If "No" then from where the companies get their android roms on first hand as a clean plain base android rom to make it their own rom?
2 second: Can i just install any rom of any phone and it will start to work?
If "No" then what maybe the problems that I would first encounter?, what can I do to fix that any such known problems?
3 Third: I have heard about porting rom by changing things inside rom like replacing kernel of base rom with my stock rom, Kernel of my stock rom (4.2.1) can work with lollipop rom (5.0.0)? if yes then which lollipop rom would be best to use for (G700) and from where I can get one?
4 Fourth: Can I use my old kernel, camera and radio from stock rom in newer lollipop rom will it work? is it possible to do that?
5 Fifth: Can I use any kernel on any phone? or there are any specific particular to device types? or is it necessary to use the old kernel?
6 Sixth: If I flash my phone with custom new rom the radio will also be flashed with it automatically? even if I doesn't want to? How would I know that the rom i am going to use contains the flash files for radio also? and can i remove that? and use rest of the rom?
7 Seventh: If i flash my phone with new custom rom what are chances that it's camera will not work? or radio maybe affected?
8 Eighth: What can i do to port my camera from stock rom to new custom rom which I want to flash. the camera of old rom (4.2.1) can work with lollipop (5.0.0)?
9 Nineth: The device is a dual sim, any special thing to keep in mind before flashing a rom? a rom should necessarily be valid for dual sim? are there any specific types?
Please all the veterans from XDA are requested to provide inside to all these questions of mine, so that I can start working on my custom rom, I seriously want to upgrade this phone please help
Any help from anyone who knows anything related to any question of mine are welcome to share their knowledge.
Thanks in advance .
