Did you know your Sprint Hero will be getting Eclair early next year? Well...now you do! Happy Friday ladies and gents

I don't think anyone was questioning if. Its when.

yea, i wasnt ever concerned whether we were going to get the update, but rather the time frame in which we would.
confirmatory tweets are always welcomed though

Looks like it won't be for several months.

"Happy to announce Android 2.0 is coming to Sprint’s Hero & Moment. Date TBD, but roughly 1H 2010."
1st half.... not even 1st quarter!!!

Might as well have just said "it'll come out eventually", haha.

Hahahaha
Lets see 1H 2010, ususally the updates run about 2 time periods behind when they say that they will be available... so looking somewhere around 1H2011...

By that time, the development work for 2.1 here in XDA-Developers will already be done and all of us will be looking forward to the next release.

I wonder why the Moment is being held up on the 2.0 release, when it's just vanilla Android. I really didn't think they were going to give us that broad of a timespan though. I figured January would be the latest that we'd have 2.0. So unless Google makes some changes, there's a good chance we won't be using their newest apps for a long time (officially anyway). By the time we get 2.0, Droid will be running 4.5 .

as long as we get 2.1 here first and i can brag about it for a whole before anyone else has it, im happy lol.

Thank you for your post. I've read in more than one site questions regarding IF the sprint hero was getting Eclair even some doubters. Good job

HTC has affirmed that we will be getting an update on more than one occasion now, but you're right, a reminder and an update from them is always welcome. I just wish we could keep talks of this in a single thread.

*cough*we need a mod*cough*
But, thanks for the update...I really wanna try some of these apps that need Eclair!

1H 2010? Really? Talk about vague. I may go back to big red for the Passion if we don't see it very soon.
I love Sprint, and my Hero, but let's be real.... almost every Android phone on the market will be LIGHT YEARS ahead of us if it takes more than a couple months at most.

While I agree that it isn't cool to toy around with us...specially since we'll still be behind when the update hits most likely. But still...I don't think that not getting an update warrants hopping the fence haha.
but then again, I cannot even really use that since I "hopped the proverbial fence" after my girlfriend dumped me and haven't looked back...if you get my drift haha

I think it's a perfect reason to hop the fence, show sprint that we want our updates, we can't do anything on 1.5 .. no nav, no goggles, nothing new and exciting, i'm fed up and i would rather start over with a new phone.. than wait for sprint to get off their lazy behinds and feed us something that should have been out already

Or keep your eyes peeled for the 2.0-ish roms we have in the works here, there's a decent chance we'll be fully up and running by the time the other phones get their official update. But by all means, "stick it to the 'man'..." and cancel your service. It's your prerogative. I personally don't see the need. I like my sprint service and I like my sprint hero. /shrug

See, I don't think Sprint will have an update for us until about May (I just have a feeling on this). In light of that, I'm definitely looking at the development on the 2.0/2.1 ROMs in the other threads...those look like they will be ready way before Sprint updates us.

Just an update on this, link.

Thanks, that's good to know! I was just wondering (for the 5 millionth time) how things were progressing.
So... who do you think is in the lead now, HTC devs or Sprint? My $ is still on you guys. God only knows how long the testing phase will actually be.

List of now unsupported devices for angry birds and a promise.

Found this story and thought everyone would like to take a look. Sadly, my cdma hero isn't supported. Hopefully, the "lightweight version" will be as good.

Congratulations on your purchase, hope you enjoy it, there was a thread about t mobile stores already and sensation coming on 15th june.
btw device has already been rooted, and bootloader unlock hasn't officially been released but one or two users have been picked to test it before we all get it here.

This guy is an AHOLE. I wonder how he really is in real life. Probably one of those people who is extremely anti-social except when he's online and act like a bully.

LOL we all want what he wants.... more USEFUL threads less dumbass, pointless and annoying threads. A simple search would of showed the OP that there are threads SIMILAR to this one and he shouldn't of started this mess!!!! Now we have pages and pages of pointless threads in this forum so actually the link to that video is totally necessary

Quit trolling. OP was simply excited about his purchase.
While I agree with ya'll that these threads need to stop, that isn't a reason for you all to troll each other.
SHIELDS UP!
RED ALERT!

If it wasn't in any development forums, then no one should be up in tears.

End of story ladies.

Wrong section, bro..

Official ICS is coming!

Check it out!
http://phandroid.com/2012/08/13/lg-optimus-2x-to-receive-ice-cream-sandwich-after-all/
Korean LG says ICS is in testing phase, that's awesome news for us!

Nice, thanks for posting
Finally (maybe) no more limping ICS builds here.

Ya, let's hope one of the devs are still around when it's released =P

This sounds too good to be true... Especially because I can't read Korean...

LG is having a laugh at their customers' expense. I've never seen a company SO inept at just giving a fscking "YES" or "NO" answer about a product.

Oh please oh please don't lie to us or we will just continue to beg you more!! write letters, social media, and petition. I meed a break from all this buddy

I posted this in another thread but our good friend Paul O'Brien's sources say it's "imminent" for the 2X
The will-it-wont-it saga over the Ice Cream Sandwich updates for LG devices has been rolling on for months, but now, thankfully, we've had word from our LG insider on what's REALLY happening!
The news is good. Ice Cream Sandwich updates are nearing completion and will be released imminently for the Optimus 2X, Optimus 3D and Optimus Black! Exact dates are still not forthcoming, but we'll keep you posted with more news as we get it.
I'm really happy for LG users that this is going to happen, the support so far has been pretty shocking and LG really could do with turning it around.

Well here's hoping the LG Insider is right. If he is that means fully supported ICS for the T-Mo G2X once the devs get their hands on it. Not that I am complaining at all about HFP but it would be nice to run a fully supported ICS on the G2X.

Seems I heard this a few times before. I'll believe it when I see... Wait. I got rid of my G2x.
But just for arguments sake that this is true. They are in a testing phase. Which means the earliest this would be release to T-Mobile is what, Jan-Feb. and then they have to test it. So what, the 2 year anniversary of the device? I got my G2x on pre-order. It's been dead. Sorry, but I can't see this being offered as an official update.
No place in the article does it mention an "official update" coming. Seems the articles writer is jumping the gun in this one.

It won't ever be official for TMobile..suppose to be just for Korean o2x correct? But that's when devs can try and port it for those of us remaining hopeless souls

Just trying to be helpful If we can find a Korean O2x user...

We've got smart devs around here, it'll be done for sure. The code isn't going to be in Korean. The only issue is it'll be for the P990 variant...

They have had a working build with their own 3xxx kernel for months. Let us say i have a REALLY good source.
