htc hero 300x213 HTC Hero to get Android 2.0HTC have announced that they are to make an update available for the HTC Hero brining it up to Android 2.0 (Eclair). The statement said that the only delays at the moment are relating to the Sense UI…

“Yes, we are working on an Eclair update for the HTC Hero. Because Eclair is a significantly enhanced release, it will require some time to update Sense for this new version of the Android OS. Please be patient while we work to provide you with a tightly integrated experience like the one you are already enjoying on your Hero.”

It’s not clear yet when this will happen and how it will be rolled out on to different carriers, but the good news is that we wont have to spend money to upgrade if all goes to plan.

If the HTC Hero gets the Android 2.0 upgrade then it might actually be possible for the older Android phones to also be updated as Hero uses the same processor as the Dream and Magic. It’s early news at the moment but keep your eye open for more HTC news relating to Android 2.0 in the near future.
