    Actually, it doesn't sound so bad if you have all of your calendar and contact items synced to Google -- it even sounds like you can see the list of apps you had afterward and redownload them (albeit one by one).

    Hmmm, does the availability of this as a download mean someone will be able to root the device soon?

    God I hope so. I want that HTC Hero 2.0 leaked ROM on my phone right now. Coming from the Motorola Droid, I need my Google Nav back.

    judge by how it look's on that page it a patch exe that interacts with the phone. yes some hacker can bust that thing open and figure out how it loads the patch so we can get root even if he lays his own files inside the exe

    Use this link (the one below). File is too big for me to email to the ones requesting it - your servers are rejecting it due to size.

    The download I got OTA was 6.5 mb, but I believe the 113 mb file is the whole OS (or ROM? I dunno what the lingo is - new to Android).

    I can say for sure the file I linked to is the exact link that the now offline VZW page linked to.

    Hope so man, that would suck if it were malicious. I think that's why one should wait for the official over the air. You never know.

    the reason im not using (well...unless i have to wait until next week! lol).
    but wait...could it be the rom??
    thats the rom sizes for winmo roms.
    im about to give this to someone see if it can be ripped open!


    edit
    this most certainly is the 1.5 rom.
    i know for a fact the master can work with this.
    where you guys at!!?

    This is the site for all official updates. Have no fear, nothing malicious here. And yes, it is the complete ROM.
