HTC says Desire, Legend and Wildfire to get Froyo in the beginning of Q3
Jun 30th
Wow, I have never seen HTC acting this fast. According to recombu, HTC has told them thath they are working hard to get HTC Sense to run on Froyo (Android 2.2) for their 2010 devices, and that includes Desire, Legend and Wildfire.
HTC has not been able to keep up with the pace with Google’s Android releases for the pass few devices. We waited for more than half a year for them to bring Eclair (Android 2.1) to Hero and other devices. Will HTC be so qucik this time for Froyo?
Well, I certainly hope that HTC will do their best to bring the latest OS from Google to their devices to enjoy all the goodies that Google has brought to Nexus One.
Let’s hope this will happen in July!

HTC Legend, the successor of Hero, announced
Feb 17th
The brother of HTC Hero, the Legend, has been announced by HTC.
The Legend comes with similar look and specs like HTC Hero. However, it is now packed with a faster processor, 600Mhz CPU, and an aluminium cover. It is more durable than the Hero. During the presentation of the phone by HTC, the phone was smashed to a wall and it was still functioning after that (I am sure I won’t do that to my phone).
And, as you will expect, the Legend is coming with Android 2.1 with the latest Sense. Other than this, it comes with the following:
- 5MP camera.
- Optical trackpad.
- GPS, G Sensor, compass, ambient light sensor and proximity sensor.
- HVGA AMOLED screen.
The Legend will be available in Europe in April and Asia will follow after that.
You can find more information of the Legend at HTC web site here.
