FlashMob to flood HTC for Hero update - Hero, G2 Touch General

Are you intersting to flood HTC to claim the Hero update
I propose to tweet the message "@htc are you kidding me !! Give us the Hero update" or something like that at 20:00 UTC today

Would be interested, but only twitter? Well i would just make for this **** an twitter account
But then we need to do it on the following plattforms:
- twitter
- Facebook
- HTC Support
anything i missed?
Edit:
Dunno we're they are but in germany we have today holidays so maybe nobody would read it and maybe we should do it on another day?
I also think we need more than 5,5 hours to get enough people so that it will have a great effect

Yep not bad idea
Maybe tomorrow at the same time ?

Good idea..

What time is that for Chicago, Illinois?

tweet with #HTCNY to show up on the screen at their current event

Official HTC 2.1 (3.31.751.1 Chungwa Taiwan)
the matter is settled

Is it?
I haven't gotten an update here in Europe... sooo

New update for Hero in middle of march, yeah right?

Here it is! Middle of march! Where the f***k is an official update?
HTC is going to get shot because there's another rumor that it won't be out til mid April.
Surprised??? HTC doesn't have a very good track record for firmware releases.

Why has this thread been started anyway???

Agreed. Its not the middle of March, its 12th March. And in what HTC statement have they said a release will be delayed? Have patience...

Have patience 3/4 year!? "Its not the middle of March, its 12th" Omg! Sorry, the middle of the March is exactly 15,5th March. WTF! This thread has been started cos HTC is playing with us. Open your eyes people!

So why don't you put a 2.1 ROM on your phone in the meantime? There are loads of good ROMs recently released that are based on the Eris or Legend dumps. There are also loads of guides on how to root and how to flash. Thats what I've done and I am satisfied.
you didn't actually expect it to come in Mid March did you?
I've learnt to take these things with a pinch of salt, HTC are too busy pushing out new phones to be bothered with us early HTC adopters.
Play with some 2.1 ROMs in the meantime, althought quite why we need so many is beyond me. Devs should combine features instead of competing with each other.

I have put a lot of 2.1 ROMs on my phone currently i am running VillainROM 3.3 and its very good.
But this is not a point of this thread. i am angry on htc and their rumors.

Well yeah actually, the middle of March is the 15th!!! So... HTC have still time to release it, and if they do, then this is a wasted thread!
If you beleive that HTC are really 'playing' with you, then don't bother with your phone, sell it and buy something else... maybe one that never gets updated?!?
Relax and wait for it, I'm sure it will be worth it. There are plenty of 2.1 Roms to try already. We are all eager to see the official release... you're not alone.

I'm using behnaam's latest Legend ROM 1.3.1 and its ok for me at the moment - I haven't found any real bugs that stop me enjoying Android 2.1 until the official release.
But I'm afraid that no matter how much we complain here or to HTC, its not going to change anything. HTC will release the update when it is ready. If they feel a release needs to be delayed they will delay it. Threads like this will not change things.
Thread closed!

I think you've answered your own point here:
HTC Sweden that says the Android 2.1 release is not “set in stone” and expect it “around April”
HTC have never set a release date in stone, and so we'll have to wait for them. As I said, no matter how much we complain, it won't change things.
And yes, mods please close this thread, its pointless.

Did you test the 2.1 roms that are out now? They are so much faster than stock 1.5, that's the main reason why I'm looking forward to the official release.
Calm down, they will release an update when finished. I don't think it's HTC who spread news on the Internet. It's people who spread rumors.
I really don't believe all the whining, what the hell?
1) It isn't even 'the middle' of March yet, if you're going to be day exact.
2) if someone _would_ say 'middle of march' I never _ever_ saw people starting to complain the moment the '15th' hit and the promised thing wasn't there. Must be something specific to Hero users I think.
3) The most official statement we ever got (and the only one, forgot all the 'february' crap rumours that started somewhere) said 'in march', not the middle. Regional Director HTC Benelux called it 'medio maart' in dutch, which translates to something like 'somewhere in march'.
I really can't believe the hate posting that starts _every_ _single_ _time_ again, primarily on XDA, but also on HTCPedia and MoDaCo. Do people have nothing better to do than wait for a software for their phones?!?

HTC hero update (funny htc response)

This is my email to HTC.
"Hello Sir/Madam
You must be getting this a lot, but there is no news on your twitter feed about this problem. I own a HTC Hero and due to being stuck on 1.5(cupcake) I am unable to download a lot of new applications for my phone. Is there a reason we are not getting timely updates? I have not had this problem with my iPhone.
This is making me regret moving over to HTC, if this is the level of service I am to expect in the future. I cannot understand how you put this quote on your site " HTC is committed to providing customers with the best possible mobile experience."
Please give a set date on Twitter or reply to my email address, if we are to expect a update and a confirmed date.
It is a shame about the level of service with the phone, and will be a shame if I have to move away from android because of no updates.
I Hope you do reply( even if it is just sorry we cant help you, just to show you have read this)
Hoping for good news Modo Albans (currently an Hero fan)"
And this is the response I got.
"hi
Thank you for your enquiry.
You will need to put the 1.6 rom on your phone to make allow the apps to work.
this is on are web site.
http://www.htc.com/uk/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=283&act=sd&cat=all
If these steps have not helped, please let me know by responding using the link provided and I will be happy to check again for you.

HTC"
I would respond to tell them that hero does not have 1.6
Good old HTC perhaps they should outsource there software support to XDA
Email them back saying there is no 1.6 ROM available for the HTC Touch G2 Hero.
ew Response From [ Lee (UK - Ireland Support (Tech)) ]
hi
Thank you for your enquiry.
I made mistake on that last email.
The hero is on 1.5 and will be left on 1.5 until and if it will go to 2.1.
If and when this is released it will be on are web site.
If these steps have not helped, please let me know by responding using the link provided and I will be happy to check again for you.

Check out that shocking grammar! Guy should get sacked.
That is a generic response I would expect from someone like that. They will not be caught unofficially announcing a release of 2.1
I have a funny feeling they doing it to suprise people unless there is major problems with this ROM on this type of phone. Lets just wait and see who knows we might be in for a suprise
The update wil never come. They want you to buy a new device.

Sense 2.0 on Evo 4G

Hey everyone, I was a little bored and I got curious as to when the new Sense UI would wind up coming over to the EVO. So, I did the best thing I knew how to do, I googled it.
And I found this, A guy named ONIXBLACK over on android central sent HTC (and Sprint, but he's waiting to hear back from them still) an email asking them about this question.
Here's the link if you choose to follow that thread for updates: http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc...-rep-has-say-about-sense-2-0-gingerbread.html
This is what they told him:
"Dear (MY NAME),
Good question, (MY NAME). I would be more than happy to provide you with as much insight as I can.
All I can really say for sure is that the Evo is going to get an update of some sort to, at the very least, address a few issues with the last update (streaming media, battery life, and a few other problems that have arisen). I have a feeling that this may end up taking a while, since we're thoroughly investigating the battery drain issue, and we want to make sure that it's 100% resolved, prior to releasing another update for the phone. You can, however, follow us on facebook and twitter. Once that Evo update is ready, we'll definately make an annoucement through both of these websites, as well as HTC.com.
Will this update contain the the latest Sense UI update? It's tough to say, a lot of carriers prefer not to share a full list of enhancements with our technical support reps, as they prefer to go for the surprize approach. I would imagine that with the Evo being Sprint's first 4G phone that in order to remain competative with Verizon's Thunderbolt and AT&T's Inspire, I can only really _guess_ that the Evo will eventually see the latest Sense UI (not only that, but speaking from personal experience, the Evo is the phone that we recieve the most request for the latest Sense UI). Bottom line, though; this is something left up to Sprint. We've forwarded many suggestions and many requests for this enhancement, so Sprint knows that interest for this exists.
Can't make any promises, but from what I've seen, I remain optimistic.
Thank you for taking the time to contact us, (MY NAME).
We are always happy to be of assistance. Keep in mind that we are here to answer any questions or concerns between 6am to 1am EST, 7 days a week for your convenience.
To send a reply to this message or let me know I have successfully answered your question log in to our ContactUs site using your email address and your ticket number (MY TICKET NUMBER).
Sincerely,
(THE PERSONS NAME)
HTC
EDIT: I also asked about Gingerbread but she dodged my question
So far I have yet to get a response from Sprint"
I'd like to think that's pretty promising to me, but one can only hope.
Sweet. I really hope that the EVO gets the new sense 2.0 update. makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside when you read that email/question
As far as I can tell, he just received that email and posted it today too. So heres to hoping!

Reading the context of the supposed "email," they wanted it to sound as OFFICIAL as possible. Almost as if HTC really replied, but did a whole bunch of drugs and forgot how to compose good, professional sounding sentences.
What a joke. Try harder next time onixblack.
HTC at least hires people that can spell 5th grade level words properly.
Or you could flash a rom based off of Sense 2.0 and have instant satisfaction.

there are many, many roms with sense 2.0. none of them were ever very popular though.
IF this is real it's bad news... It confirms the next update will just be maintanance and not gingerbread...
Sent from my EVO using XDA App
Yeah, I'm calling total bs on this one too. Mainly because I just don't see an HTC rep "speculating" on rumors. Hell, they might even get fired for it.
Yeah... I didn't have to read the whole thing to realize it was fake.
I was in a Sprint store. asked one of the techs if the Evo was getting GB, he said "what is that". lol
Me personally I would rather have Sense 2.0 then Gingerbread. I have tried cm7 and really don't see all the hype. Gingerbread is just a skinned froyo to me. I must be missing something. I will wait for Ice cream.
I know there are some enhancements done but nothing I would cry over. Bring on Sense 2.0

well since there are probably speed optimizations in GB, and sense 2.0 on top, it would be > stock old froyo sense in a couple different ways

[Q] Shipping with 2.3????

I just took a look at Sprint's website and they now have EVO's shipping with 2.3, does this mean that we will be able to use the kernel that was used for those models to help out with developing roms with 2.3? Sorry if this was in the wrong place or if this information was known and not helpful.
provide a link & yes this is the wrong section.
http://shop.sprint.com/mysprint/sho...0138&flow=AAL&planSKUId=&ptn=&tabId=dt_phones
it does say...
"Operating system
Ships with Android 2.3"
So theres an official 2.3 version of android for the Evo,just not for those of us who have already purchased our Evo's? How does that work?

Agreed, I would love to know.....
This sounds odd. Maybe they updated the page too early? and this means GB Update soon?
Moved to General. I could have moved this to Q&A, but I think it is of enough interest to have it as a General topic.
I thought I was going nuts but right in their page it says ships with 2.3 smh... I hope it means something good for us

Dang... you got hosed, I think I'd be taking that one back and making them give me an updated one. The gal I just talked to from Sprint had no clue that the page were all looking at had been updated so.... She did get in touch with tech support for me, but they werent aware of any ota either.

i have been in contact with HTC about the Gingerbread update and a new version of Sense.... here is what i have gotten so far from the HTC rep......
here was his first reply "I understand that you need to know when the update to the EVO 4G will be available. At this time, a release date has not been announced yet for any of our updates to 2.3. We also don't have any information as to whether the EVO 4G will receive an updated version of Sense, either. For the latest news, please keep an eye on www.htc.com/us and www.twitter.com/htc."
then he sent this "I apologize, I realized that in my previous email my wording didn't confirm that the Evo will be receiving an update to Android 2.3. This follow up is just to confirm that it is a when, not an if; it has been confirmed that the device will be receiving an update."
then i pushed him a little harder for more info and he replied with this "Thank you for your response. As stated in my first email, we don't at this point in time have a release timeframe for Android 2.3 for the EVO (or any of our devices). We want to get the updates out as soon as possible, but will not do so until we have thoroughly tested them and they are approved as ready by both ourselves and Sprint. In regards to an update to the Sense UI, this is completely independent of the ROM version. There's been no word on if the EVO will receive an updated version of Sense or even if Sprint has shown an interest in having it put on the phone. Thus for the latest news, please keep an eye on www.htc.com/us and www.twitter.com/htc."
then he sent this (kind of randomly i dont know why, and ENDED the conversation) "Thank you again for your reply. I'm concerned that only the notification that you have a response is getting to you but not the message itself. In your last two emails you have inquired as to when the Evo will be updated to 2.3 and if it is going to receive an update to the Sense UI. However, I did supply the only available response to that inquiry (thus my concern that the messages are not making it to your inbox for whatever reason). We don't at this point in time have a release timeframe for Android 2.3 for the EVO (or any of our devices). We want to get the updates out as soon as possible, but will not do so until we have thoroughly tested them and they are approved as ready by both ourselves and Sprint. In regards to an update to the Sense UI, this is completely independent of the ROM version. There's been no word on if the EVO will receive an updated version of Sense or even if Sprint has shown an interest in having it put on the phone. Thus for the latest news, please keep an eye on www.htc.com/us and www.twitter.com/htc."
what do you guys think???
It would be refreshing to have a new version on Sense on our EVOs.

yes, it would. for being a flagship device, it is the only one still stuck on Sense 1.0
sense 2.? would be SUCH AN IMPROVEMENT AND MUCH NEEDED!!!!!!
Funny . . you visit the HTC site and look at tech specs for Evo and it says Android Gingerbread for OS. . .
EDIT: Sorry, looked at Sensation specs thinking it was Evo . .
Yeah that was the first place I checked after seeing it shipping with 2.3 on Sprint's website. You'd think they would communicate, at least a little
wow this is weird. Sprint has updated info to soon b4, but to have both sprint and htc update info to soon is to much of a coincidence. So i'm thinking the ota should be hitting in the next couple of days
EDIT: ok looked all over the HTC site and see nothing saying android 2.3/gingerbread. So where are u guys seeing 2.3 on htc.com?
I did however see that at htc.com it says the EVO has OS 2.1 and at shopamerica.htc.com it says 2.2
