Euro HTC Hero is confirmed for v2.1 Eclair update on 2 April

22 March, 2010
The long wait is coming to an end - the HTC Hero is finally getting the Android 2.1 update this April. The CDMA version of the Hero is getting the update too, a bit sooner in fact (March 26). But it's the GSM version...

    Current date is April 3th and no update is available in the nordic countries - seems story sadly to be just another hoax.

                rafe, 22 Mar 2010it's very FUNNY to see Saudi Arabia next to Nordic countrie... moreis europe written there? then wtf you are saying. any ways Mideast countries usually get European market products and they only need one additional language to add.Unlike asia where two same looking people can't even communicate.

                      I'm afraid there is something wrong!

                      HTC Hero wasn't released to Middle east, how do they update it to Saudi?

                      Can you please confirm if there is an update to Saudi Arabia?

                                    Can somebody explain to me why the updates depend on the GSM network operator? Isn't it only a question of update availability released by HTC e.g. in Internet? In this case I suppose HTC isn't interested too much of releasing Android updates - why should they give users something for free if they can have it buying a new handset??

                                        Henrik K, 22 Mar 2010Will still buy the Legend. Better screen, more RAM and more... moreI also have the Hero, but thinking it's not a big enough jump to make getting the Legend a worthwhile upgrade. I'm gonna go for the HTC Desire.

                                        PS, about time, HTC!!
