HTC announced today the Android 2.1 powered HTC Wildfire touch screen phone. It will run on the same chipset that the HTC Hero runs on, which is a Qualcomm MSM7225 CPU clocked at 525MHz. The screen is a 3.2″ touch screen with a QVGA resolution. Apart from these featuers, it will have a 5 megapixel camera with autofocus and LED flash, WiFi b/g, a-GPS, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR, 512MB ROM and 384MB RAM expandable with a microSD card.
So, basically this is a new HTC Hero with a higher resolution, LED flash and a little more RAM. Hit View Post to see a video of it in action.

Guys over at XDA-developers have found some interesting info about a coming Windows Phone 7 phone possibly called HTC Mondrian. The image above is extracted from the oemavatar.cab file inside the leaked Windows Phone 7 OS ROM. This could be used for instance to show a picture of the HTC Mondrian when you connect it to your computer, or then it could just be a general WP7 image. Here’s a list of what is currently speculated to be the Mondrian:
- 1.3GHz QSD8650A/B Snapdragon processor from Qualcomm
- 4.3″ WVGA display from Optrex
- Digital Compass
- No physical keyboard
Keep in mind that nothing has been proven yet, and these specs just came out of the leaked ROM.
Hope to see more of the coming WP7 phones soon.

I found an interesting figure from the Windows Phone 7 documents that leaked earlier today. In the Windows Phone 7 Customization guide is an flowchart that shows an Out-of-the-box experience process. What makes it interesting, is the sixth box, with the text “Is there a data connection?”. If the answer is No, then the whole process will be suspended. If the answer again is Yes, the user will be shown the Microsoft Software Agreement, and the phone will continue to the Windows Live Sign-In process.
This means that the phone needs to be connected to internet, and that the user needs an Windows Live account to use the phone. This is much like Google’s Android and Apple’s iPhone OS activation process. You need an Google/iTunes account to use the phones in question.

The HTC Hero is still running the now outdated Android 1.5 OS. There has been numerous rumors on when it will receive an update to Android 2.1, and now it again appears that we have a new date for the update. This time the info has leaked from Best Buy’s internal news, and states that Sprint’s HTC Hero will receive the update on Friday, May 21st.
There have been some questions about this update. It is a firmware update. Due to changes made by H……. again, the deployment was delayed. The update will be in all stores by Friday, May 21st.
We’ll know for sure this on Friday :)

A Sprint HTC Hero ROM leaked today. There’s no way of knowing if this is a near final release of Android 2.1 for HTC Hero. What we do know, is that the 124.1MB file was created May 14th, so it’s a new build. Remember to make a full backup of your phone if you decide to continue with the update. Good luck! :)
