Please help ! HTC 2.1 update, does the htc hero 2.1 update give you android market ?

Hi guys ,
Well i bought my HTC hero on eBay like many others it did not come with android market would the new HTC hero 2.1 update give me android market ?
Should i update my phone? or should i flash my phone to a custom ROM to guarantee a android market in my phone? Don't know what to do please help.
Cheers, and many thank you
I recommend flashing a custom ROM (following the guides on xda) If you update to the official 2.1 from HTC you won't be able to root or have a custom ROM (at least for quite a while anyway).
Now i'm going to guess the next question would what ROM do you recommend and all I can say is I use VillainROM 10.3, its all I've ever used and I like it

Re-flash the most recent ROM from the HTC website. With this you will receive the most up to date radio, which I doubt has anything to do with your issue, but it can't hurt.
It may be a simple coincidence that your screen broke while you were changing the software on your phone, but I would suggest if you are going to send it off to be repaired, you remove the Hard SPL update you should have done and re-flash WinMO.
This happened to me; luckily t mobile sent me a warranty replacement. It's official your touchscreen is dead.
Sent from my DL DesireZ v4.1 using XDA App
You might be right in that thought. I just hoped that it could be a software issue, but i maybe just have to realize that it is defect. I tried to install the latest rom from htc but it didn't make any difference. How do i remove the HSPL ? Im on foreign territory in this. I just thought it could be fancy to get android on my phone instead of screwed-up Win Mo. I got no idea what i have been doing :/

[Q] Reboot HTC HD2 to WM 6.5 from android 2.2

Hi guys, I'm pretty much a newbie to this all and was wondering if anyone could help me get my HD2 back to its original settings of being on WM6.5.
I recently upgraded it to 2.2 by NAND ( no idea what that means) but I was successful on getting it up and running on android.
Im now trying to be more adventurous and see if I can boot the rom to 4.4 but just for safe measures, I'd like to know how I can get the system back. Also if anyone can post the links of what Id need to download to get it to 4.4 and how I need to do that from 2.2 would be great. I don't know if I could just upload another android version on top of the 2.2 or if I would have to remove that first.
Thank you in advance

In future search before posting. To flash a higher version of Android (although 4.4 doesn't exist yet and probably never will) check out the guide in my sig. To flash a stock ROM just download one from the HTC website and flash the RUU in the bootloader.
I tried looking for previous posts that would hep, but this stuff is completely going over my head and I am still determined to get my HTC on an upgraded android version. What android version would you recommend? anything more up-to-date than 2.2 would be great (with everything working, I have read posts where some people have had problems with the camera not working)
I have had a look on the HTC website and they no longer support HD2 :-/ How can I restore it? *confused* I'm a complete newbie and a noob, yup both, but I will not be giving up
Further guidance would be great.
I think a JB ROM would be good if you want functionality and the latest version. If you want stability then 2.3 is probably best. The only real solution is to try a few ROMs out and see what you like best.
