The Russian section of HTC has announced the update to 2.1 for the HTC Android Hero finished. The update will be on the air to the Hero-users sent. On April 16, the software must be downloaded.

HTC HeroHTC Russia late on Twitter know that there is an internal release of 2.1 for the HTC Android Hero was released. Presumably the phone maker wants to update the first test before users receive the new Android version. The Hero is running now at version 1.5 of Google's mobile operating system.

Android 2.1 for the Hero was previously expected, but HTC has postponed the update.

It is also possible that the release of the new HTC Android phones Legend and Desire ex wanted to wait: these devices have standard version 2.1 of the Android OS.

HTC delivers with the new version of the OS also a new version of the interface with Sense.

Tests of Tweakers.net with a custom Android 2.1-ROM also show that the flash memory of the phone with Android 2.1 performs better.
