Delay is for sure , hope they give us a better JIT enabled ROM and btw where the hell are custom ROM's? nobody working towards that?

I agree it would be nice if they updated early. Yesterday we went into T-mobile Hungary due to my wife's x10 mini pro suffering from extreme lag, and they refreshed the software on it, but the guy said it will be a slightly different version. That peaked my curiosity, then he said it's still 1.6 just a newer build than what was shipped with the phones. He also mentioned that 2.x is coming before Christmas, but they expect it near the end of October.
So just a tip, if anyone is experiencing lag, and is under warranty, consider asking for a refresh on the phone. Wife said she noticed one or two minor changes, but mainly its a lot quicker than before.

No offence to you, but with SE promising Eclair in September, and then said October, and SE France and Brail saying November, Im not holding out for a date/month any more

As for the ROMs, theres not point in creating them if theres no way we cant use them on our phones now is there?

No 2.1 upgrade for hero ......

New Response From [ Pete (UK - Ireland Support (Tech)) ]
Hi Hywel, thanks for your email.
I understand this may be frustrating, but the 16th was never the release date. there were some 'leaks' on the internet, but those were incorrect, It was never planned for today at all.
The update will be available for everyone from the end of the month as planned. it will be phased out over a week or so to spread out the download demand, but it was certainly never going to appear today.
Best regards,

Hi Where is the hero 2.1 upgrade for me to download?? It’s the 16th of April the day the upgrade is scheduled for release. If it’s not released today then when? If this is so then I can’t believe this delay as its been promised again and again !!!!!

They never said that ROM 2.1 will be released on 16th. I don't know where you get that.
1st they said they will release 2.1 ROM upgrades in March. When March came they said that due to some technical issues we have to wait till mid April for release.
So now it is mid April and some tech guy says it will be released at the end of the month. Guess what, at the end of month they will say that it will be released in mid May.
Did you get the game rules now ? They want as to buy their new Incredible phone!
The 16th was on a schedule that was leaked a moth or so ago.
But it should never have been believed anyway.

I think you didn't put enough exclamation marks in your original enquiry for them to take you seriously. And if I were you, I'd sue that guy who promised you update on April 16th again and again. Uh wait. Nobody promised that. Nevermind then.
Imagine having to man the email response section at HTC for the Hero with all the plums emailing you asking every 10 mins when the 2.1 update will be out!
I wonder how high the internal window jumper rate is... or forced handset in throat related deaths in the HTC office..
I also emailed them and they said the android 2.1 updates will be coming out starting at the end of april including for your HTC hero

I don't buy that as it makes little sense. It would hardly increase sales figures for the new devices at all. Most cellphone owners are locked into a contract which means if they want to upgrade before it's renewal time they have two choices.....wait, or pay over the odds to do so.....almost everyone (except die hard early adopters who are an extremely small percentage of owners) chooses the first option.
Then you have the fact that the newer handsets have better hardware and software, and all the ROM upgrades in the world won't change the hardware, so who in their right mind is going to choose an older phone knowing they'll have to mess about and upgrade it when they can just go get the shiny new model for free on another contract?
For all we (I) know, the delays could be due to more tweaks needed to make the ROM run at an acceptable level on handsets that have an inferior hardware spec than those that it was originally designed for.
the delays are mostly due because the htc servers couldnt possibly support all desire, hero and legend updates at the same time, thats why they are rolling ou the updates slowly, starting with the desire network providers, then the legend probably and finally the hero

I know this is not true as I and many of my friends are not on contracts (actually can only think of 1 who is) and prefer to buy outright as to upgrade as we see fit, and change service provider too. But I do agree with your point, it would not be a way to increase sales, more likely just internal bureaucracy is the cause for the set back.
Seriously people, there's a little thing called patience. My mother always told me that good things come to those who wait.

At first, I couldn't tell why the seniors all harp on this issue instead of ignoring it...
I've been with an x10a and a Captivate for about 3 weeks now, and I already get it. Let me take a shot at part of the problem?

Sony Ericsson Brazil confirmed that the update will land from early November for sim-free phones and late November for operator branded handsets. David Mignot, Marketing Director of Sony Ericsson France, has told French X10 owners to expect the Éclair update in late November.

I feel like I was mislead when I bought this phone. Wonderful hardware, embarrassing software development.
I have pre ordred my first HTC, for work, the new Desire HD...
My X10 can then be a spare phone...:-\
And lets face it, as i am the one buying phones at my work, i do need to try out other manufactors some time...
SE have f+*&%# with the users one time too many now...!
Send from my X10, still without 2.1 *&%#
Hopefully the Desire HD isn't locked down like the US T-Mobile's G2.

Perhaps it is locked down, i have read that it do have hardware lock in fact...
But then again, if it have the most current Android OS out of the box, then no problem...

How much of big kick in the ass if XDA get 2.1/2 before SE release it lol

Surely this would be a big FU in SE face if they managed it before the proper update probably wouldn't have mattered before but after the past weeks eagerness and then the usual bombshell from SE I think it would be great lol

To be honest I think it's what they deserve.
From a marketing point of view, they are ****ed.
I too would love to see this happen
They ****ed us on the X1 and blamed HTC. Made big promises for the X2, we got ****ed even harder then. Now the X10!
Well at least my X10 is functional, not like the X2 I had before this. That was a pile of crap, a beautiful pile of crap... but still crap!
Yeah, hopefully someone cracks the bootloader soon!
This is my first SE phone (X10) since the old SE phones.. My question is.. Why do people like to continue getting EFF'd by Sony from X1 to X2 to X10?!??!
I learned my lesson after the X10.. Last time I ever give in to the brand, without doing my research first.
Sony Ericsson is playing there cards wrong. And, as a result? Lost MANY Potential and "loyal" customers from before.
Good thing i'm not on a contract with this phone!!
I would rather wait for the bootloader to be cracked by the devs anyway, they can take the updates and get better drivers other than that I think we would probably have to wait till october 2011 for froyo alone by SE. But by then I would of sold my phone for scrap metal and got an HTC ^^

Same goes for me, i would wait for the devs, what they do in there spare time for us is beyond anything that the SE devs can do in bringing us the best/newest firmware for the X10. Oh and as for 2011 for froyo that wont happen, i forgot where i read it but SE has said somewhere that 2.1 is the last firmware for the X10 series phones. If however we are able to get froyo as an update, SE would most likely cripple it again like they are doing to eclair as we speak and take out all the new features that comes with the update and only give us the number that shows up before the firmware version.

The x1 was by far one of my favourite phones I've ever used, only after using cooked ROMS from xda, I can see the x10 being one of the best Android based phones but only when it gets the same xda treatment.

There's no certainty that we will ever get a cracked bootloader, from SE's perspective; they don't have to stop the bootloader getting cracked forever, just 6~12 months by which time the phone will superseded by newer models and people will loose interest in cracking it as they move on to newer phones. If you look at the dev thread signatures you will see that a lot of them have already got newer devices. What do you think are the chances of them getting another X10 if one gets bricked? Natural attrition will eat away at our dev community unless a hack is found SOON and a homebrew scene springs up around the X10. It's not like X10 is an Apple product and cracking it will get you media attention / notoriety.
I'm sticking with my X10 for now, but I'm not optimistic.
My 2c.
yeah if its happen all x10 users will respect xda devz
All we can do is hope that we get a cracked 2.2

i think it wont be so fast till they crack the bootloader,there is very slow progress or none,i hope things will change when 2,1 comes out,maybe things will get easier..

Расслабься, ничего другого от них ожидать и не следовало.:d
The mini is low on SE's list of priorities IMO and I doubt it will be updated in the next week. Please, don't take this as trolling; I'm only saying it because according to the PTCRB (certification service for UMTS/GSM products) website, the 2.1 update hasn't even been certified yet.
http://www.ptcrb.com/ctiastaff/complete/view_complete_request.cfm?modelid=17439
http://www.ptcrb.com/ctiastaff/complete/view_complete_request.cfm?modelid=17438
Of course it could use other certifications, but I doubt it.
... do you wanna kill me? phew..................... change the topic right now !!!!!
I'm hoping it's only an oversight my friend and SE decide to use the one standard firmware for both the x10 mini pro (which has been certified) and the x10 mini. It may well be that PTCRB haven't updated their website, that's all
peace
it's unthinkable that SE gives x10 mini pro and doesn't x10 mini... they're the same firmware, that's all
All in all it is not the problem of having or not having 2.1, it is all about the way SE is handling the whole situation. In the beginning it was Q4, then it became Q3, then it was end of September, then it was end of October, now they say middle of November.
They should have sticked to their original Q4 announcement, and nobody would have complained. But this erratic and spontaneous change of deadlines is demonstrating to the outside world that SE is having deep inside problems like with project management, marketing and public relations, as well as inter-departamental coordination.
This, and not the delays makes me doubt the SE future.

Ice Cream Sandwich for Samsung Galaxy S2, when?

With the new ICS has just been released, when do you expect Samsung to release a version for SGS2?

it might take sometime
Why? what does it take?

I personally wouldn't be surprised to see it within 2 months, but that may be partially wishful thinking.
Andy Ruben has just said in the post announcement interview that ICS updates should be a couple of weeks after the Gnexus release. However I personally wouldn't hold your breath as Samsung won't want to effect sales of their flagship phone

What I mean is:
Google and Samsung will want everyone to buy the Galaxy Nexus the new flagship phone with a higher price as this will be in direct competition withe the iPhone 4GS. However why will people buy this when they can buy the still excellent, but cheaper Samsung Galaxy S2 if it has the latest update.
Personally I won't buy the GNexus as I'm very happy with the SGS2 and I can't afford the upgrade. So all I can hope is that someone will port the ROM
People will get upset if they buy phones that dont stay up to date.
But yeh, wait for them to profit off the Gnex for a bit.

This is something that pisses me of about android, I just recently got 2.3.4 on my unbranded SGS2, At this rate I expect Ice Cream sandwich by next summer and by that time something bigger and better will be along.

There will always be something bigger and better. For what it's worth, you can always upgrade your unbranded phone manually to something newer than 2.3.4.
I don't know how many that buys for example an SGS2 are "hardcore" users and just "plain" users (i.e only does the official updates via Kies etc).

This isn't something specific about Android, this is a generalization about all technology and perhaps most all retail items. You must be from another planet.
