Guess what - its June tomorrow

...and what does that mean?
Sod all, I imagine

And it doesn't mean what we all wants... 2.1... it simply means that HTC will delay the release further and further... and ultimatley not at all...

Well Sprint and Verizon did get them...........

Well, at the end of the day I won't use the official HTC 2.1 ROM.
I'm very happy with Cronos Droid which gives excellent speed as well as root access, the latter never available with stock ROMs.

Some of the unofficial 2.1 ROMs with newer kernels are getting so good now that for those who root it really matters not. For me SenseHero is spectacular.

So, its June.
Where do we download the official 2.1 from then?

There will be no update to Eclair in June.
HTC will postpone the second OTA update to July, then to August etc.
We've been ****ed with and have to accept it.
HTC has stopped supporting GSM Hero. That is the bitter truth.

+1 for this, we're ****ed up with a support-****y company... but whatever, does any1 have the link with the official (and i mean the real official) News about the Hero which should get the 2.1 Android Update?
Regards

I don't know. I had the info from the E-mail support which, clearly, lied to me.

They said "early June" so let's wait for a few days...

Why not sign the 'Eclair Update Petition' on the Market? or join in the #wheresourheroupdate on Twitter!

I agree with bluesax, there is a lot of negativity to HTC's support - whilst I agree it is crap, we have given them 22hrs (using the international date line...) so far to provide from the start of June. Yes okay, they have messed us around, but it is too soon to start saying that they haven't given it to us yet, so we are obviously being fobbed off.
I trust (don't know why...) that they will give us the update, and hope they will releases patches as time goes on.
But that's just me.....

Hope is the last (thing) to die

I heard by a colleague that it was released to Hungary today from an operator.
Can anybody confirm this?

Just be patient! It will come.

Hey, he was 6!

Microsoft's presence starting to show on latest CyanogenMod nightly.

In the latest nightly (1st Apr) of CM 12 the presence of Microsoft can be seen. The home screen icon is changed to Microsoft Windows logo and when the Android upgrades you see the 'Poweres by Microsoft' message.
Maybe all this is for good. What's your opinion?

It's only a joke that's already being discussed here:

Its not a joke. Here's the screenshot (see the home screen icon)

OK so the logo and Microsoft text appear - no one debates that but given its April Fools day I wouldn't expect to see those things in the next nightly

They are saying the LG V20 will be the first to have 7.0, OUT OF THE BOX.
Correct me if I am wrong, but the N6 has had preview builds for a while... And at any moment there will be the official 7.0 release for the nexus 6.

Someone will have the zip soon im sure or even a rom

compile for us please ..

This will be Nexus 6 last OS update. We will not get android O officially. But we will get security updates till android O drops. so we get 1 more year with this phone.
OTA will roll out first. Hope someone captures it for us. Images to follow on google site in a day or 2 along with source.

agree. and i might get the v20 for its reputation of lg for being expensive... hmmm..

What that means is that it will be the first device sold with the os. Not what devices will get it first.

Certainly 6.0.1 as stated on the Factory Image web page. ( 6.0.1 (MOB30W) ) It won't be long though.

someone on android beta getting an update? 5x users is getting official android 7.

Android OREO for Sirius

Guys. I could see some of the oreo based repos on github for Xperia Z2 (Sirius).
Here are the links.
https://github.com/Sony-Stock-CM/android_device_sony_sirius/tree/lineage-15.0
https://github.com/rcstar6696/android_kernel_sony_msm8974/tree/oreo
https://github.com/rcstar6696/android_device_sony_sirius/tree/oreo
So I think devs are working on OREO ROMs. So can any devs out there confirm it? Can we expect an OREO ROM?

Devs said Oreo will come to Xperia Z2 just give them more time.

Wrong place to post this mate.

Just wait, don't ask for ETA and all gona be ok

Ok guys...! Just waiting for OREO...

Please delete this thread...

Oreo will come soon BT and camera needs to be fixed
And btw my commits on my git are always fake
What a nice joke

Come on, this is the 3rd (maybe 4th, out of count) thread asking/querying/talking about the implementation of Android O. Can anyone here be a bit more patient and since we are not paid for making this, don't expect we are here to serve you. You didn't paid for us and never should.
General comments: Android O for Z2 is coming and not until the day when the ROM is stable enough come will we release it to the public, thanks.

Well, as I said couple of times, for me is better to wait for version a bit above 8.0 to let Google to fix most of the bugs. Having 8.0 as soon as possible does not mean anything to me.
