Cant wait for this to come out
Not even sure that came from Sprint. It is just a random shot of a "memo". I will not buy into it. It would be nice tho.
from the comments:
I spoke with sprint customer service today b/c my MMS stopped working after I updated the PRL today and they said there would be a maintenance release on april 9th to fix the MMS issue, but it was not the 2.1 update. So don't get your hopes up. --- Submitted by repinphilly247 on Thu, 03/25/2010 - 18:52.
so it may have nothing to do with 2.1 at all...
we shall see, I'm not dying over this, there's only a few small nagging issues left over in the 2.1 roms we already have.
i dont think its 2.1

Actually, none of the issues that are bugging me with DC are rumored to be fixed in the official update anyway, as far as I've heard.
I could get excited about it if they fix Gmail or have live wallpapers working with Sense, though.
It specifically says tentatively April 9 which means that could change. I am sure they are still running tests and when its good, which they hope by April 9, then it will be released.
If you read more than just "Hero" and "Update" on the picture you linked...
It says
"Unable to download picture notifications.
HTC HERO
Fix will be part of the maintenance release scheduled for 04/19/10. Tickets are not needed for these picture mail issues."
Pay attention and stop posting random dumbness..
This is an internal service memo... The update will be released and announced.. Be patient

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion of what this could be, and is no way random dumbness.
I firmly believe this is not 2.1, but the only way to find out is to wait until 4/9.
Thanks for the post, and heres to hoping this is INDEED 2.1!
i dont know officially if it is 2.1, but internally all our updates are called "maintenance releases", no matter how big or small they may be. hell, the other day the tp2 went from 6.1 to 6.5 and we billed it as a maintenance release. but imho, this is 2.1.
I wouldn't think they would call 2.1 a "maintenance" release.
i work there you big dummy. if we called wm6.1 to 6.5, how can you be sure? webos 1.3.5 to 1.4 was also a sprint "maintenance release". just be happy with that answer... and just be glad you dont have a moto droid, lol

i agree with you but also it does clearly state what it fixes. so idk im iffy to get my hopes up. i dont think it is 2.1
that document contained errors and had been revised. The official word is still coming soon... the version must go thru testing no need in releasing it only to have to issue another update after a week or so right

Are you friends with the other Sprint employees here who swore they had inside info and the 2.1 update was coming Feb 22nd and then today March 26th?
So...
I am digging this out of death, so that I can tell you guys, that if you read my earlier post in this thread, the reality is the exact opposite....
... that's all you get.
well that's good news!

so i have a sprint store down the street, i went about 2 hours ago and i was chatting with this guy who seemed to know about rooting and etc. he was a rep; so i asked him " i know you heard something about the update, and the rep told me we are getting our update on MONDAY. Whats funny to me is all these reps are full of crap, they all tell you different things, but this guy seemed pretty confident that were getting our update on monday, lol i guess we will have to see right guys? just thought i would share...
the tech center at my local sprint store said june, so theres your answer. they are all full of ****.
Screw Sprint! I am getting all my updates here!
lol yeah man, i want to believe him so bad, i know we all do, were all hungry for this update, i mean i love getting my roms here, but i just want the official to launch because it helps our devs make our roms nastier lol. other than that sprint can kiss my azz
Regardless of when it comes out, I will still be waiting since I will only install it when a dev here makes a ROM of it. I will not go back to stock RUU ROM from Sprint. No thank you.

How likely would Sprint/HTC be to try and "fix" the asroot method of obtaining root? I know people who are too scared to do it, but I was wondering if after the update, they'd be out of luck until a new way was found.

That came with the Sprint leaked ROMs. If you have 1.5 it will not be on there. It's on the 2.1 Could not be getting our phones ready for an OTA as those that are stilled unrooted running stock would then be screwed out of an update. I think it is so we can get updates HTC may make to Sense UI and apps that they build.

very likely since it is on the newer linux kernel which patches the way we rooted the hero.
Yeah, I chatted with a Sprint person/robot thing and was told it's coming "very soon", and this was last month, so who knows when it's coming, all I know is it'd better be PERFECT when it's out seeing as how they're taking forever to release it.
go in there on monday and ask why you havnt got it. please i wanna know what they say lol
i work at best buy mobile and we dont hear anything about software updates. only hardware. i had to tell my boss about cliq updates haha.

It does seem likely with Sprint employees supposedly having training scheduled for a 2.1 release.
Meh, whatever. I gots plenty of 2.1 here to hold me over.

OMG 2.1! I can finally have yet ANOTHER 2.1 ROM around, except this time will be "official". Yay!
Seriously, these rumors are getting out of hand. Damageless' rom is basically a rooted 2.1 stock.

We know, May is the date, yay! :\

you don't want it, just wait the dev roms to come out. if you update you will lose root at least for awhile maybe forever.
you want root.
you need root.
(but only if you like themes/roms/root apps/being able to remove system apps/sticking it to the man/other badass stuff)

good point .. i will sit back and enjoy the perks that all these talented devs offer ! .. will wait for their 2.1 version after the official is released
buying time with my hero until the EVO god phone comes out .. haha
sticky
i think this is the best clue we have as to when 2.1 will be officially released, whether or not we'll need it beside the point.
i say we make this a sticky to discourage more rumors, as this is straight from sprint, and will shut everyone else up. it will be the widely accepted date for right now, and stop talk of it (we all should rest assured it IS coming at SOME point)
for now i encourage possible 2.1 users to try out damages for a very stock feel, flipz for more of a bounce and even a little bit more stability, and legends to just have fun.
-kurtis
i heard they decided to pull the plug on 2.1 because 2.5 is almost bug-free. and it comes with not just live-wallpaper, but with smell-a-talk! now you can smell the breath of your caller....... available on the future release of HeroVo 3
I'm on stock 1.5 and I keep on getting an "Update Device" pop up for Heroc2000 Firmware update ......should I update it?
i vote yes.
I got tired of waiting ... im still tired of waiting so I put the fresh rom on.. and im never waiting again...
Can't wait "NOT"
I can't wait for the Official. Oh wait I've been on it for weeks. Can someone please explain why we care when the official is release. I only see one advantage. Fresh will turn it on in his Kitchen.
Not landing till the end of next month though.

I am chomping at the bit because I have no way to get FRF50 without rooting and I am unable swallow the pill of loosing my warranty on such a big purchase without recourse.

Froyo will be dropped OTA in the next few days.
Guaranteed.
http://www.androidos.in/2010/06/froyo-updated-nexus-one-arriving-soon-in-south-korea.html
The release date is June 21. In an hour where I am, it'll be the 18th already. We should be expecting the OTA anytime with this news.
Unless of course the "Froyo'd" up meant = FRF50.
ROFL.

I think he means unlocking the bootloader to install a custom rom, voiding the warranty.

Yeah, I'm on AT&T and just didn't want to root since I just got my phone. I'm hoping it will come out OTA soon...
I wish they'd get on with it just so the board isn't cluttered with any more squinnying about why it's not out yet
I would need to root my phone because I have the North American 3G varient (EPE54B) that the FRF50 Test Build was not direclty written for.

I can't wait to start whining about my hoped for feature/bug fix not making it.
Seriously though, I'm super eager for an official Froyo as I'm convinced the FRF50 update caused serious issues with using mobile data (constant errors and slow speed when using data and not on wifi).
No OTA for people on Cyanogen though /:
But he'll put a ROM out in no time once its out.

That is actually precisely what they mean, and is why they only have 4k for launch. They're running the pre-release Froyo on them.
I wouldn't expect to see Froyo for another couple weeks people. Don't hold your breath.
Engadget says 4,000 units will be available for sale in South Korea on June 21st.
I'd expect OTA sometime around that week.
It's froyo'd up.

I'm going to agree. We'll just hear the same damn thing we've been hearing... an update is coming "Soon". That's all it ever is. T-Mobile told me via Twitter yesterday that they are working on it and want to make it "perfect"...
Man! I hope they are working on something better then "soon".
The dev, community here has fixed all my problems for me except the modem... if you are comfortable flashing roms and mods, it takes the wait and insessant delays edge off. They are so sloooow,... with there flagship device? Come on.

if the rumors of gingerbread being released in october is infact true, then i guess the vibrant can expect gingerbread sometime in march?
Im happy with JI5 for now
But all this delay I'm starting to think we might get surprised with a 2.2 update sooner than thought
But then again this is my first Samsung phone and all the talk about their history....IDK
Negative attitudes don't get you anywhere. Think positive its a good sign that they are a least going to tell us something.

And I am sure many of you will ***** and complain about a lack of communication by Samsung if they keep hush.
I am having so much fun modifying my rooted phone and 2.1 that I don't even notice how long it's taking to get any OTAs or 2.2 for that matter.
I think having owned a G1 taught me a lot of patience. The Vibrant is a great phone, yes it may have it's bugs but it certainly can be an everyday smartphone even without the updates.
Take your time Samsung/T-mobile, as long as we have devs and hackers that work hard to help out the community I will be patient.
in next two weeks....bla bla bla... they just going to say that they are working on something, and soon "soon" we will see something. After everybody smashing Tmobile and samsung, they had to reponse some how. I guess only time will tell.

Oh, wait, IT'S NOW OCTOBER. I guess what they meant is you could look for it in September, but what they didn't say is you wouldn't find it.
You people aren't going to be happy if they release it and its not ready. I would wait as long as it takes to get it and have no issues or less of them. You know if they release it before its good to go and you have some issues you will come back and complain. I would love to have it now just like everyone.

Still... all we have is a leaked version, not the official. Once we get the official, the devs will go off of that and we will have a whole bunch more stable gingerbread ROMs.

I'm definitely looking forward to an official gingerbread update.
It will mean that more roms will have things like a properly functioning FM radio.

Perhaps a Canadian Summer since it's Bell (not really sure about overseas carrier names)? At least hoping that it's North American or somewhere where Summer = Australian Winter. THere was a rumour about it being sometime near late July?
