Re: official sprint hero 2.1 update

Re: official sprint hero 2.1 update

Some guys over at xda are working on it day and night. Last time I looked the pool for whoever was able to root it was up to $150 and growing by the day so I'm sure someone will pull it off. Take a look at the thread if you want here's the link:
