When can I expect 2.0 to come out for my HTC Hero? Any ideas? I'm new to this kinda market. Is it something I'd check for an update on my phone? Thanks guys
Noone can really say, all we know is HTC are officially (?) working on it.
They would most likely link to it on the HTC website, but it would be spammed all over this board within minutes too
They have Twittered that they are working on it ... but that was at least a month ago now.
Just a waiting game

He posted it on his twitter (http://twitter.com/PaulOBrien) at 3:39pm on November 24th. Later he replied to people adding that it was a very very very early HTC build.
They are working on it.

When HTC releases it.
WE DON'T KNOW!!!
Will this 2.0 upgrade include us with the Eris version of the Hero?

It seems that HTC finished the porting of the Sense UI on Android 2.0 but they will bring out Android 2.1 on the HTC wich is a version of 2.0 with some bug finxes that were found in the 2.0 Android version.
It should comes out soon, because the porting of the Sense UI was the biggest problem but thats done so far.

Interesting but why does it say Flyer HC? We haven't seen that upgrade yet. At this point though it totally makes sense to skip it and go straight to ICS, although I never believed they would do that.

I've reread this several times, and I really don't understand your point here.
HC update to be released some time in December seems pretty clear to me ie. not yet released.
ICS may be officially released, but adapting it for the device is going to take time. They can't just shoehorn it into the Flyer without checking to see that it's working properly or there'll be a ****storm of complaints. Just be happy we're finally getting HC officially.
first of all, I can't understand a single word from that post, then, did it say anything about view 4g? Honeycomb update as well?

Yeah, ICS if you are willing to wait another 6 months for HTC to build and test that, which most people are't even willing to wait another week.

No, they don't have the view in Turkey.
It's a word for word translation so doesn't read well.
In somewhat proper English it would say something like this:
HTC Incredible S: update planned for release by 10 December. Contents: Sense 3.0, Android 2.3.5
HTC Wildfire S: update planned for release by 10 December. Contents: Android 2.3.5, lock screen update.
HTC Flyer 3G and Wi-Fi: Honeycomb update release planned for December.
HTC Salsa: update planned for system, Twitter update and Wi-Fi improvements
HTC ChaCha: update planned for system

I see now that this isn't an ICS list, it's just a proposed upgrade list. It's written in Turkish, cut me some slack.

I remember there was a post some time ago that said there is a View 4G HC manual on the sprint website.
So perhaps the 4G is update is nearby as well?

It is, it's in testing inside sprint.
So looks like we need a Turkey GB RUU then we can keep clicking check for system update for HC come out
and people, check out the XDA-Wiki, there is Sprint View 4G HC Manual, help you how to use HC on View LOL
We already have a leaked release WWE for HC on the flyer. That is what my thread in DEV is based on. So it shouldn't be long before it rolls out.
I'm getting the Flyer for Christmas, does this mean that I can skip out on custom HC ROMS and just go straight to the official update? Dang, if the Flyer gets HC officially, I might not even need to bother with rooting or anything... except it will still have Sense UI, more likely than not...
You probably could, but I would strongly advise doing the S-OFF procedure first.

So what are the advantages to going S-OFF before the update?

Some Flyer 3G owners in Germany also report availability OTA of a 3.55.405.1 update with Sense 1.1, 210,95MB in size.
I spoke to htc in the UK today about a broken Desire HD and they said Honeycomb for Flyer will start rolling out at 5pm GMT today...

I have read through a few forum posts and done some searching, yet never found an answer to the following question:
- If the HTC View 4G is just going to be used as a WiFi tablet, with no intentions of running on Sprint, can HTC Flyer ROMs be loaded on the device?
In other words, if I don't care that the 4G or carrier capabilities are lost, can those ROMs still be loaded? Or could they be stuck on Gingerbread forever?
The reason I ask is because I purchased two of the View 4Gs as Christmas presents because of killer deals this week. I know both recipients will be all about rooting and ROMing.
Thanks all!

Thank you for the links. That at least answers the question with a NO.
Besides the fact that it is no, I am not seeing why that is? The linked post asked a great question as to what was different, but I don't see that answered. If it is really technical then fine...could someone break it down for me at a high-level?
I would assume that this is because of the CDMA and WIMAX radios built in?
As far as I understand what you stated is correct. There is one rom for the view atm

Search a little harder and you'll find a post from me sometime in the last week were I listed the reasons.
Thank you globatron. I saw one of your posts had this:
"...there are hboot, partition, address space, boot offsets and a few other things that are different. It's simply not feasible without a HC compatible view hboot."
I also saw in the same thread that it appears that HC will release for the View at some point soon. Given your comment above, once an official source comes out from HTC, does that mean that it might be possible in the future? Just no promises?
It sounds like it would depend on how HTC went about developing the View HC source in relation to how the Flyer HC source was developed.
Interesting stuff.
The list of honeycomb reasons is the same as the list of differences between the two and the reasons for a flyer rom not working on a view.
I can say for certain that the ROMs will still not be cross-flashable under hc.
OK, thank you!

We don't know when it will come to India. As for for further upgrades to flyer, I firmly believe we will not see ice cream sandwich from HTC for flyer. So I took the plunge. Though I was not too much in mood of going this way, but I wanted to have honeycomb on my flyer, and just could not resist.
I have switched off auto update reminder on my tablet for the time being.

I have been checking for update ever since Dec 5.. no update here in INDIA
Sad sad really sad
Hello I have HTC flyer and I flashed it with flyhigh ROM v1.2 can I flash it with other ROM to upgrade it to honeycomb ? And second thing wot all more hacks r included in flyhigh ROM.
In case you guys are sick of waiting for it, I'll make this easy for you.
This is how to s-off and upgrade.
Guide by globatron: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1358758
I suggest this rom by leedroid after that : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1406851
PS: You take full responsibility shall you follow those guides. Whatever you do, me or the devs bear no responsibility. Also, this will void your warranty.
PS2: And to answer the reply about it being worth it to upgrade to honeycomb, that depends. I find honeycomb generaly more responsive on flyer. It also has that "tablet feel" to it. Also, pen pressure support = win.
PS3: Oh and, shall you follow any of those guides, please, READ THE ENTIRETY OF THEM.

I'm glad they didn't leave you guys out in the cold on this one. Although many ppl would rather use GB, I find the stylus infinitely better with HC. Hopefully we will ALL see an ICS release on day , I am happy with my HC View in the mean time.
Congratulations to all of you! I can feel you! I waited for two long months before I decided to go the root way and I am a happy HC user for 4 months now! There are more HC apps optimized for Scribe Pen and you can run lot of other tablet optimized HC only apps as well! So Cheers and have fun!

Go to settings=>about tablet=>software updates, then click on check now.Downoad the update files and follow the instructions to update. This is for unrooted tablets. Note that the update is irreversibleunless ofcourse u root and S-off.
Ok I solved it myself. I used internet pass through and wireshark to capture the packets from the tablet.

I just ordered HTC View 4G 32G (Sprint) is that HTC Flyer? I want to install HC or better yet ICS is anyone of that available yet?
Android 5.0.1 Licorice Cane is out for android tablets!!! take that one!
seriously, if you just read the previous topics in the Flyer/View forum, you´ll see that Honeycomb is out for most of view oweners. ICS is prolly not going to be available in at least 6-8 months.
go under settings, do search for software uptade and see if HC is available for you..
hit the thank you button
When your View arrives, if its not HC already, its going to automatcially prompt a new firmware is available and will download then install.
ICS is not out yet =/
