that's not an official statement, and the source for that info isn't official either, you're best to not listen to fansites for official information, unless you can find a viable source to backup those claims (htc.com and sprint.com specifically in this instance).

more than anything, March has come and gone... so lies amassed, none are true.
[Hero CDMA General] smoother2010:
a little late don't you think? :rolleyes:
[Hero CDMA General] ThatGuyFromSprint:
plausible, but the rumor around the office is end of march to mid may, however, that's not official.

Personally, i think it would be safe to say it will be out in a week or 2, however, that's speculation, and i don't have any official statement to back it up.

I just don't get how Sense UI is to blame. Everything says that HTC had issues with getting Sense UI to work on this phone for 2.1 yet HTC has continued to release and show upcoming releases of HTC phones running 2.1 with Sense.
[Hero CDMA General] tatonka_hero:
Or, you could look at just how many phones have actually been updated to 2.1 (ONE), and realize that maybe it's a lot harder to update any phone from 1.5 or 1.6 to 2.1?

Glad to bring this back to the first page.
[Hero CDMA General] ThatGuyFromSprint:
hostility gets you nowhere, and this:

A. you care, you posted here

B. if people didn't care, threads like this one wouldn't exist

My point exactly

none of this links back to HTC and a public statement, so it's hard to say if this is true at all... while I'm not saying it definitely isn't true, I do have my reservations.
[Hero CDMA General] Tipharet:
I only care cause the 2.1 threads around here are out of control. Secondly if you cant offer any information other than what we already know, claiming to be a Sprint employee does not but further perpetuate the thread issue around here.

Btw, I use to work for Sprint, I dont know how you survive. The corporate culture there is that of a vortex or a black hole.
[Hero CDMA General] Sporkman:
ive had to 2.1 for about a month :D would be nice to have the release from sprint but im happy with what i have :D
[Hero CDMA General] unCoRrUpTeD:
Here's the problem. The processor that our phones use and the amount of memory creates problems with the phone running smoothly. Look at how the 1.5 was laggy with sense. Now add more features and more apps and it will be even slower.

By the way, who cares anymore.
[Hero CDMA General] ThatGuyFromSprint:
I don't know about this corporate culture you speak of...

We have a casual dress code, a few xbox's set up, a pool table, and we get catered food everyday, to be honest, sprint does a damn good job of making us, their employees, very happy... if that's what you think is a corporate black hole, then i'm a little lost...

However, it could be dependent on you location (I'm a Call Center employee). This may also be the more forward thinking process that they've taken within the past few years of, "if we have happy employees, they will in turn, project that happiness into their support, and there by make a more enjoyable customer service." (not a bad idea, if i say so, i thoroughly enjoy my job)... retail stores may be a much different story however, and i know a few other call centers don't enjoy quite the same luxuries...

i will agree that these threads are out of control, and that's why i'm sharing the information i have. in an attempt to help calm the questions, while the attempt may be futile, and in turn fuel more questions (as it seems you were suggesting).

Here's what is true: There is no release date!

In the near future is the official statement on that. A lot of these sites that suggest a date don't share a source that goes back to any press release made by either Sprint or HTC, and thus have no real backing or truth to them. Notice that all the speculation sites just link to one another, don't believe the hype.

More than anything, and i can say this, the update with not be OTA, it will be OTW, and it will be available for download from sprint.com and htc.com at release.

Outside of those truths, there really is no more information, other than what a lot of you have already seen in the 2.1 leak roms, and possibly a "few" extra features. *wink*

but that's really it, there's no other information, and there's nothing else that can be said...

Honestly, from what i've seen of the actual release, it's much more efficient than 1.5, and actually has minimal lag (which 1.5 doesn't seem to lag unless you overburden it with apps, and don't have an app killer of some type)... the 2.1 build runs much cleaner than 1.5, even with sense.

And again, posting in a thread, and insinuating that you don't care, only implies the opposite.
[Hero CDMA General] Tipharet:
Yeah damn, if thats the case they have definitely changed.
[Hero CDMA General] ThatGuyFromSprint:

[Hero CDMA General] unCoRrUpTeD:
Just in case you didn't see this

Official:Sprint announces update to Android 2.1 coming April 26
[Hero CDMA General] keeneraver:
meh.. hate rumors. With the Droid 2.1 udpate, we knew about that a week before it launched, it was all over the internet. My source inside Sprint @ the campus said they were beta testing the 2.1 update in February, and originally HTC said the 2.1 for the Hero would be 1Q 2010. Now I am pretty sure we would get a release date annouced shortly before that thing rolls out, because Sprint needs all the PR they can get. Another thing, since HTC originally said 1Q and Sprint said 2Q, they obviously were having some problems with the beta tests. My money is a late April/early May release, with an announcement of the rollout plan sometime in the next week or two.

Hope I am wrong though, and it comes out today.
[Hero CDMA General] KBizzle:

You do realize that the great developers here finding and fixing bugs in the 2.1 leak are probably the cause of the delay. The very same bugs would have probably cropped up in the final release had we not been here to test it and xda-developers not been around to fix it.

[Hero CDMA General] illogic6:
I don't think any true "porting" would be necessary. If we were to push/pull the right apks/libs, it would probably fire right up. They have a system dump of the Motorola Enzo in the general Android development forums that I was looking at last night... the system/app directory seemed to contain multiple apks related to the blur interface...

I didn't look to far into it... unsure if it'll run on 2.1 currently. I'd rather work on porting Windows Mobile Classic.
[Hero CDMA General] Kcarpenter:
I attempted and got it booting, but didn't have time to fix the issues.

Once we get FriendStream I think blur is useless.
[Hero CDMA General] lazyvegaskid:
ahhhh WinMo... how I loved thee. I really do miss my HTC Touch (Vogue) its cuz of zenulator an co. that I jumped on the android ship
[Hero CDMA General] schizopunk:
Maybe, but FriendStream honestly kinda sucks compared to MotoBlur in my opinion. Not as feature rich.
[Hero CDMA General] danaff37:
do they even have motoblur yet running on anything 2.1? Don't think the droid has it...
[Hero CDMA General] Kcarpenter:
If you are going to try. Go download s_blur on the G1 forums, it would give you a good starting base, then take it appart pull its kernel out, put our kernel in.

I had to stop when I was having issues with my linux liveCD and using CPIO. Can't unpack/repack the files with out that. and for some reason it just wouldn't work for me. I was going to try again one day because it would be cool.

But anyways:

Once you get our kernel in it, it will boot. but just about everything force closes.
[Hero CDMA General] TheBiles:
Where do you get FriendStream?
[Hero CDMA General] Kcarpenter:
I think only the legend Rom has it working.
[Hero CDMA General] Genjinaro:
?, I haven't found it to be anymore feature packed (From what I tried on the Moto Backflip), FS is more compacted whereas MB is split (widget wise).
[Hero CDMA General] schizopunk:
I think its better split up cause if you follow a lot of people its hard to manage that with FriendStream, I dont know.
[Hero CDMA General] lazyvegaskid:
if it was possible to port onto the HTC Touch then its possible for our phone it just requires a dev with the knowhow and the demand for such a rom. lets be honest as much as our devs love to tweak their phones they also need some love in the form of donations because this work isnt easy. I was building my own roms for my Touch before the Hero came along and it was tedious work. That said if its ever done I will try this out as I just bought my girl a Moto Cliq and she seems to LOVE it. I honestly tho will never buy another phone that isnt made by HTC
[Hero CDMA General] HeroMeng:
I was fiddling around with this too. I got it to boot and connect to Sprint.... but that's all I got it to do.
[Hero CDMA General] maxinspace:
You act like that's a bad thing. I know nothing about building roms, but a start is a start. Anyhow, a blur rom would be awesome to have. I personally like the look of motoblur.
[Hero CDMA General] zenulator:
I had this running on the touch vogue when it first came out. It's ok but sense is way better for me and really don't do the social networking thing. Now if it had anti-social networking I'd be using it right now.

Although the thread is quite old (according to last post date) but I had the same issue on my hd2 i.e. dialing the last number automatically when listening to song with original stock earphone. After some time I came to know that if there is any last number dialed on your phone then quick double pressing the middle button on earphone (just like double clicking on you desktop or laptop) will cause the hd2 to dial last number in your phone call history. You can check it out.

I am going to copy and paste the same comments on another thread where simillar issue is mentioned.
[HD2 General] Super169:
I'm now using the Apr.13 Energy ROM, and there are multiple 3G networks available from my service provider, which serve different purpose (for mobile device or PC access). I have joined a data plan which allow to access all networks, so that I can share the 3G connection with my notebook via WiFi router.

As tested in the HTC ROM, it must use the "SMC-Voda Internet" to start the WiFi Router for network sharing. However, it seems that the energy ROM has some default setting to disable some kinds of network, so that I can only use the network for mobile device.

I can see all networks in Data Controller, and I have enabled the "SMC-Voda Internet". But when I start the WiFi Router, I can only access the mobile network ("SmarTone iN!"), it seems that there may still have other program comes with Energy ROM which disabled the network.

Is there anyone know how to enable all available networks in WiFi Router?

Thanks in advance.
[HD2 General] Super169:
Problem solved, must change to use "SMC-Voda Internet Settings" for both option under "Network Management".

By default, it will set to "SMC-Voda WAP Settings" under "Program that automatically connect to a private network should connect using:". Which cause the problem that it cannot use "SMC-Voda Internet" in WiFi Router.

I figured it was just me getting to some key or something, had the phone in my pocket, the screen should get turned off, but it does mysterious things in my pocket!...and when I use the handsfree it calls the last nr on the calls list, even last incomming call...

[HD2 General] David Balfour:
Ok, firstly, are you using the official headphones that it came with it? If so get it swapped. If not use the official ones.

After doing quite a bit of testing with this issue, as it has been bugging me since i got the phone, i have found 2 noticeable things.

1. As above using non official headphones can cause this issue but it's not just any clone headphones that it does this with. You will find more often than not this happens with cheap headphones. The gold plated ones stop this.

2. I use mine in the car to play my mp3s through the aux socket on my stereo and found that if i have the heater on to clear the windscreen this heats up my phone (as this is where it is mounted) it happens then.

You may also find that the songs start skipping through very quickly.

Also I found this started to happen less and less with the 2.xx base cooked roms as well. Whether this is coincidence or not I just dont have the patience to test.

Hope this helps in some way.
