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.
Guys the date or the Thunderbolt is the 24th!!!

Based upon what ?? And, please don't say that your brother's sisters accountant's mother's dog's dog-walker works @ BB or VZW, etc.,
Based on the fact that it just is. No need getting into specifics. Just know you heard it here first!
Either way im not getting it now. From February 14 not to March 24th lol Its over for me.
Again Im so sure its the 24th. I have no slip, no blurry photos, no proof to show you. I JUST KNOW. If im wrong i will never enter the forums again, thats how sure I am!!
A verizon rep for Adobe told me that as well, but we all know how that goes.
I wish they would stop making seperate threads for all these this is the day posts. Just post in one of the other already made threads and Im sure we are all going to take your word on it...Thanks
24th

Actually we've heard the 24th from other "sources" as well. Without any hard proof, or an official VZ announcement, right or wrong, you're post is just wasted space (as is mine admittedly)
~I'm outta this thread~
oh someone else said the 24th? Please show me the link? NOONE else said the 24th before me...... but nice try.
my knowledge of the date is definative!!

The date of the 24th has actually been on numerous sites since at least yesterday (maybe longer but thats when I recall seeing it).
Ill post links once you state how why youre so sure. Otherwise, look it up yourself.

the 24th has been kicked around for atleast a week ,,,even heard itr from the phone tech at bb,,, but i dont need to prove it to u , so im not hunting down EVERY thread that has RUMORS about when the phone is coming out
yawn....
wake me when it is over
The phone has been rumored to release every Thursday since February. My friend the CTO of VZW has told me that it will be released on the 31st.

LOL! Nice release date troll thread. Weak.
Sent from my Eris using XDA App
tazz, totally agreed, that date has been kicked around for likely longer than a week and ive seen it on droid life a million times, and several on phandroid, but this is nothing new, at this point i dont think any one single person can come out and say that they called it and got the date right. by now who gives a ****, its still a rock solid phone but i have heard so much about it that i feel like i already own the damn thing, there isnt a single spec i couldnt tell you. i will say this, i stopped in at my local best buy in knoxville,tn ant talked to the mobile dept. manager and he bet me his life that that the inspire 4g(really like 2.6g) had the same processor as the bolt, and he was right about that, but he told me the clock speed was 800mhz, i showed him at least 10 different spec sheets that proved him wrong, morons, all of them. the sad thing is he was very knowledgeable in actual android and even knew how to throw together some apps ansd code a little. on a different note, i played with the atrix while i was there and it had a sexy screen and for the first time in the existence of motoblur it actually ran buttery smooth although it still blows asshair compaired to sense or stock gizoogle android.
And how definitive it is your spelling of definitive

Obvious troll is obvious.
hee..
While I was stalking TazzPatriot when he was getting a mani/pedi, I heard the nail girl on a call with her BFF whose sister is dating a verizon vp and she said that it is for sure the 24th and that oh my god I like totally can't wait.
Hopefully you guys arent referring to me as a troll as i for sure didnt mean any of my comments to be troll like and plan on this being my next phone, so all im trying to do is make a few freinds over here early on so i can get in good with the community like it was over on my fascinate forums. well more like fascinate IRC is where i spent all of my time
So I just bought a Slide on eBay, but I wanna go ahead and get things started.
I can do most of the work I think right now before the phone (since it's Sense 3), but I'll need a few brave testers with ADB knowledge and who aren't afraid to flash things.
Somebody help this bro out, he does good work.
You should try this forum:
http://support.t-mobile.com/community/phones_data_devices/android/mytouch_4g_slide?view=all
It seems like most of the people on here like our phones and want to root and rom them, while the people on the t-mobile forum want to complain and cry. I'm sure you'd have pretty good luck on there lowballing someone for their phone!
Got one on eBay a couple of minutes ago. See you guys on the other side . Thanks for the replies.
Sweet can't wait to see what you can do with this phone!
If you don't mind me asking, how much was it on eBay?
I currently have a MT3GS I bought from Craigslist awhile back - got a pretty good deal from someone who decided he'd rather have an iphone, it came with the original box and all the stuff.
Been debating on whether it was worth an update to a 4GS.

It was $340... it said it was refurbished so I jumped on it. That's just around the price range I was looking for, too (extremely hopeful price range).
$400 seems to be the area in which the used ones are selling for...

I'm going to start porting some of the features today and need some testers .

You know I'm in!
I've been one of the ones to dive in headfirst around here so i'll help as I can.
This week, and next, are gonna be real tight on time for me. I still have a few threads around here I have to update...and just can't get more then a few minutes in front of a terminal at a time.
When I get the chance to update my threads, I can sit here and have the phone installing (or whatever) while I do.
Glad to see another dev jumping into the pool here with the MT4GS - it's a sick piece of hardware.
Your list has made it incredibly easy to list out all the apps (I usually have to go through them one by one and try and figure everything out, usually takes 1-2 hours per phone )
Anyways, I can't test it as I don't have the phone yet but Bloater should be setup for it. At least for the apps and stuff. I'll have to add WiFi calling later.
Test it out and let me know what works and what doesn't. I tried not to include anything I wasn't sure about or anything that could be potentially harmful to remove.
If it doesn't recognize something as installed or uninstalled it just means my MD5s mismatch what it was expecting, easy fix.
Install it as a normal APK
I can new a lab rat if needed as I still haven't committed to this as a dd

I'll be willing to test!
Are any of you guys familiar with IRC? This may be easier to do everything there instead of posting back and fourth.
We could try #mt4gs @ freenode
Other than that, I may have my statusbar mods ported today. Just need to fix the resource IDs up I think. I'll need to have someone test.
I'm using Paul's deodex as a base for now since I couldn't find an RUU. So if anyone is running that, you'll just have to flash two files over to test if this works or not .

Someone join so I can use you as a test dummy!

its hardly old news since it happend TODAY.
Sorry but thats a random thread with a stupid name,im supposed to just magically know theres a post mentioning it in there?
I searched it came up with nothing so I posted it because there is no thread about it.
People are not going to find a random post in an unreleated thread.this is news in its own right so it gets its own post.
Sorry for this. I'm kind of gaga today. That wasnt nice .
Two possibilities - DHD update cancelled for the Telus carrier, or the update cancelled for ALL DHD models. None of these should affect the Desire S or Incredible S. We already have ROM leaks. There is no way in hell HTC would release the updates in China and not the rest of the world. We'll get the update, I'm 100% sure. (and seeing that you're from O2 Germany, you may be among the first to get it )
Thats about Desire HD not Desire S....lets keep it Desire S talk in here guys...least in terms of worrying if X is going to happen in the future...
Yes sir! just got my Infinity this morning and can't wait to get off work to check it out. Also I had purchased the dock with it, it was in a bundle from Tigerdirect. Are there any suggestions that I should try out with this new beauty? Apps,programs etc..:good: Well got 5 hours more to go!!:fingers-crossed:
Maybe you could try your second post to be not a useless forum polluting one
Sorry if that offends but imagine everyone who got one opens a post like this.
he is just excited lol but yees there are threads on what is what and what you should do. first upgrade firmware to the latest .26 then check out best apps and best games thread, then just use whatever you need to do
Some of us have a nice day and some don't, happy for your new toy! Check out the Tegrazone and Nvision apps to see what's available for the Tegra 3. The only way to appreciate the 700 is by trying out the latest and greatest. But beware, some apps are still not aware of the 700 so leave them alone if it says not compatible!
Mine is scheduled to come tomorrow via ups. I will also be at work patiently waiting to clock out and race home.
