Hi Greenhouse01. I'm assuming you mean the2.1 update. My hero is unlocked, I was running 1.5 until the weekend. Last week I visited HTC website and checked for updates fota, it said something like click on version number to register or something so I did, although nothing happened for about 5 days, then on Saturday I booted my mob up and got a message from HTC that an update was ready, do I want to install now, I said yes, did everything it asked and ended up with new update on phone. Thing that surprised me most is I didn't lose my apps from the market, I thought all they would have gone. Hope this helps, good luck. Ziggy.
