HTC Hero users, take heed! HTC may be planning to roll out the Android 2.1 OS update to your smartphone in about two weeks! The rumored release information comes to us from HTC Club, the smartphone maker’s own online community aimed at keeping customers in the loop on software updates and changes. A Club member apparently received an email from HTC, indicating that the HTC Hero would be getting some kind of ROM upgrade for the “Nordic/Greek/RUS/UKR/SA” regions. It’s not explicitly stated that the ROM upgrade will be Android 2.1, but that is the likely scenario.

Stay tuned for updates on Android 2.1 for the HTC Hero!

    I am surprised that how they (HTC) managed to get away selling Hero with old rom 1.5 while older G1 has been up graded to 1.6 for a long time. I love the android system it’s better then iphone in a few way’s.
    My advice to HTC is if they want android loyal user’s to stay with this lovely sytem, must give us full information about updates time to time before people start looking to join rival iphone which is also a wonderfull system.
    So choice is your’s either get more people to convert to your system or people switching to iphone……
