A small HTC Hero update appears to be rolling out right now. Version 3.36.405.1 seems to update the HTC Peep app and xda-developers have seen some other files patched too.
Check for updates on your Hero to see if it’s available, otherwise.. just wait longer. 😉

I found it by doing a manual check (in “Settings->About Phone”). Installing now. (Sim-free UK Hero)
Not sure about Peep (I don’t use it), but this update seems to have fixed a problem I was having where WiFi would switch itself off (and not back on again). It also seems a little more responsive, but I might be imagining that.
I just randomly checked for an update today and it popped up. I noticed it also freed up about 1MB of my internal storage too which is nice.
nice to see HTC giving some love to the older handsets 🙂
after reading this I did a manual check on my Orange handset and it’s found it.
*Gutted* … let my ol’ faithful backup phone go to phones 4 a-bit-of-dosh or whatever they were called.
I thought they’d stopped all Hero patches 🙁
Do NOT install the update.
After installation all HTC WIdgets from Screen are removed. And that is the worst: They are also removed from the list of the available widgets.
