Trouble Updating ROM

[hgrace]

I am currently running build version: 1.56.651.2 CL85027 release-keys , and i am having trouble updating my ROM. I am browsing through the HTC website, and arrive to the place where I am asked to input my S/N. I do this, and it gives the error saying "your device seems to be different from the selected" or something like that.
I definitely have an HTC Hero with Spring (made by google it says on the back)
BUT!, my fone looks completely different than the HTC Hero on HTC - Mobile Phones, Smartphones, Cell Phones, PDAs what does that mean? Mine looks exactly like this http://www.coated.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/HTC_Hero.jpg
While the HTC Hero on the htc website looks like this

Can anyone help point me towards the right direction in updating my ROM ? Any help would be much appreciated.

The one that's confusing you is the GSM version for non-US markets. I looked at the Sprint Hero support page here but couldn't see any mention of firmware updates. Hopefully somebody more knowledgeable can help you.

That is the current ROM for the Sprint Hero unless you want to risk voiding your warranty by rooting or flashing leaked versions of the software.
