Hi . We are also having the same problem. Our application worked flawlessly with 1.5, 1.6 and 2.0, but doesn't receive UDP broadcasts any more with HTC HERO 2.1 and HTC EVO 2.1.
Curiously it worked with Nexus One 2.1 and works with 2.2. We also found this issue: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=8407 Best regards.
