I've just bought an HTC Hero (Refurb/3UK) of which arrives on Tuesday, but i am completely new to Android having never used the OS or the Device before i am wondering if anyone can help me out with any important information i need to know about.
Ssecondly, i know HTC won't be releasing Android 2.2 for the Hero due to the Hardware Specifications as 2.1 had to be shrunk in order to be rolled out for this device, is anyone working on getting this onto the Hero?
Already a working version of 2.2 is available but without Sense UI

You can find a very nice Android 2.2 Rom here: http://www.villainrom.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=45&t=2357
You need to root you're phone ofcourse. And full wipe + nandroid backup
Does any one know of a step by step guide of how to install the latest version of Android on an HTC Desire S?
There is plenty of information on Google but i cant find a detailed guide that includes how to root the phone first. The HTC Desire S i have is currently running Android 2.3.5.
A couple of questions:
- Does the Android version depend on the spec of the phone? (i.e. does the phone have to have a specific amount of memory or specs for me to be able to install the latest version on the Desire S)
- Does the phone have to be rooted first before i can install
- If i do root and install the latest version, will i be able to revert it back to its original factory settings?
- What does "installing a custom ROM" mean? Is this the same as installing a different distribution of Linux or a modified version of XP?
- What is the relationship between installing a custom ROM and updating the Android version? Is it the same thing?
- And finally, are these custom ROMS safe? Do i have to install a custom ROM to be update the Android version and if so, how do you ensure that when you update to the latest Android version, you are not installing a version that has modifications to record personal information e.g. your email or paypal logons?
Thanks.
up.. this is also my question..

Ok I am not sure how to ask this question so I will explain exactly what I want to do and why I'd like to do it if possible. I have an iReadyGo Much G2 android phone and it is running Android 4.2 but I really want an Android Wear watch which requires 4.3. I don't expect this phone to receive an update anytime soon so I want to know if it would be possible to develop a ROM to bring this phone up to speed and put Android 4.3 on it.
Hi, I own a Chinese phone which is BML One Mini (also known as a Spreadtrum SC6820) which has Android 4.2.2 on it.
I was wondering the steps on upgrading/updating the Android version from 4.2.2 JellyBean to 4.4/5.0? Since on my phone, I do not see the 'system update' option, I have gathered that the only way to do this is via a custom Rom.
If anyone would like to give me some advice on what/how to update my Android version to something higher then I would be very grateful.
Thanks,
Edward.
Hello guys,
I am noob on android devices and I would like to upgrade my IconiaTab A501 because most of applications are not compatible with this version.
I am in Android 4.0.3 and I would like to upgrade to the lastest one.
I have tried to do the system update but it always says the network cover is too low please move to another place to get better cover. I have read on internet that this message means it cant be updated by itself we need to find another way as it does not concern wifi.
I saw that its now Android 9.1 but i am not sure it can be installed in my tablet.
Could you guys please help to know which is the lastest Android version i can install in my A501?
