Hi everyone
I just bought an unlocked (I think since it is working in Pakistan) Orange branded HTC Hero yesterday. The specs are:
Firmware Number: 1.5
Build number: 1.76.61.3
Software Version: 1.0.0.A6288
I was wondering which update should I use to update it? Do I need the Orange one or the generic one? which is the latest available update?
Noob here for Android, all help highly appreciated, and needed urgently
Thanks
At a guess the Orange ROM. Check by entering your Hero serial number into the appropriate area on the HTC update page.
Would that lock the phone again? or can i still use it here in Pk?
Not sure TBH.
It shouldn't do - unlocked mine before updating using Orange update ROM and it is still unlocked after update.
which version did you upgrade to and what process did you use to unlock?
Are you using your phone in UK and/or with Orange?
I got my handset on contract with Orange UK, unlocked with a code from http://htcunlocking.co.uk/HTC/Hero, updated to software 2.73 with the Orange Specific update from the HTC UK Support site and still use both Orange UK / Lebara Mobile / Vodafone Italy cards in it.

Can I install any firmware on my X10?
At the moment I have a german X10 with Baseband 1.0.14.
Can I upgrade to 1.0.16 without any problems?
Yes, when you have an branded Version, u must use the instructions to debrand it. But u can upgrade without any Problems. When Your phone is unbranded use the Sony Ericsson Update service, it will find the update. Save your old frimware when u decide to debrand it, so u can brand it back for warranty reasons.
Sounds great.
You have to know, that this is my first Android device. Before, I jsut used webOS and WinMo.
What tools do I need do 1. drebrand, 2. save the old firmware and 3. put the new firmware on the device?
I'm using a Mac, but can use Windows if needed.
Thanks for answer

This might be a stupid question but I'm running R1FA016 (was originally running R1FA014, Vodafone UK but flashed the phone) however when I go into the service menu it states that it's customized. I was under the impression that R1FA016 is unbranded.
To get into the service menu press menu, back, back, menu, back, menu, menu, back when the phone is locked.
I'm getting my info from the first option 'Model Info'.
Any ideas or am I being stupid?
I have R1FA016 version x10, bought it from o2 in uk, its not sim locked and it doesnt apear to be branded either, but it says customized too

Oficially just one update behind, but considering the amount of total updates, yes you're far behind

hey guys,
can anyone tell me if Android 2.3.5 ----- Blur_Version.651.73.30.XT910.Retail.en.EU is the latest for uk?
what i'm trying to ask is i'm from australia and due to some issues i have flashed to the UK version.
on my AUS version i got an OTA which improves camera and gave a game bewjeweled 2.
however on the UK i have there are no updates, so does that mean i either already have it? or ota is not available for UK yet?
thanks!
I'm in the UK with a SIM free Razr and that is the newest version that is available OTA for me
It's the latest official EU non branded firmware, yup.
I ordered an unlocked atrix 4g new from amazon, 331$ i think i made a good deal, but the catch was that i received the german version (O2 operator) and now i'm not able to upgrade to stock gingerbread firmware, so, is possible to make some kind of downgrade to any AT&T version so in the future i could update normally to gingerbread and ics?
About my atrix:
Version.4.4.20.MB860.O2.en.DE
Android version: 2.2.2
And yes, is rooted and bootloader is unlocked.
Thanks in advace...
