THATS IT! I Plan on getting the EVO ANYWAY! SO TIME TO ROOT THE DAMN HERO!.... I was holding out tryna stay clean and wait patiently... BUT F**K IT!...]]>Apr 21st 2010 12:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/htc-hero-wont-see-upgrade-to-android-2-1-until-june-at-least-i/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/htc-hero-wont-see-upgrade-to-android-2-1-until-june-at-least-i/
I'll give you a boot up your ass instead.

IMHO it wouldn't be nearly as annoying if there weren't so many times where HTC have said it's coming out, and then delaying it again and again.

The fact that it's on the Legend is rubbing salt in the wound...after all it's not much different to the Hero really is it?

I would root but I'm a poor uni student who can't afford to buy a new phone if it messes up :(]]>Apr 21st 2010 12:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/htc-hero-wont-see-upgrade-to-android-2-1-until-june-at-least-i/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/htc-hero-wont-see-upgrade-to-android-2-1-until-june-at-least-i/

Ugh! Jay Leno's ugly chin. How could they design a smartphone with a fault like that.

But there's no way I want to get a device, then 6 months or a year later find that i'm ''outside the window'' of updates, (some phones have simply never been updated, or are still 1, 2 or even 3major updates behind).
I was reading some stuff about WP7 and their update system. How ALL WP7 phones will be updated by MS not by the OEM, or even worse the carrier. If google did this, i'd be just about sold on getting an android powered phone. ]]>Apr 21st 2010 5:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/htc-hero-wont-see-upgrade-to-android-2-1-until-june-at-least-i/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/htc-hero-wont-see-upgrade-to-android-2-1-until-june-at-least-i/
I wish I had not bought this HTC Hero with Telus! Sluggish phone, even worse support from HTC. Motorola is way better, already released updates to all its Droids, and it is not mad about release infinite number of phones.

I used to be a huge fan, and used to advice people to buy HTC phones, but now I do the opposite. Bad company, no support, it sucks..don't buy it!

Anybody (in Canada) up for buying my Hero? Would give it for free (with contract :P)

You must be illiterate and blind to think that the 2.1 roms on XDA are buggy. We have had fully functional releases for more than two months.
