It is quite a big deal, because this is the source code which means we can get better roms with less bugs on our desires.

I don't think anyone's giving prizes for the first post. I am glad that this was posted here also because I don't always hover around android 2.2 thread but mostly on desire thread.

Can anyone shed some light... does this mean that Froyo is final, and can we owners of Desire flash it on our devices (ok, no sense, I can live without it for a while)?

I would like this too I'm not bothered about sense. Is someone gonna try making a Rom?

Just my .02, Had this thread actually had a question asked IN THE THREAD, rather than just the Title, I would agree that maybe 063's comment was a bit harsh. But I guess since there is no "Meaningless threads to waste people's time" forum, this is what we get.....

No I actually don't think. I seem to be the only person who finds it annoying and actually says something when there are 12+ threads every single time an OTA is rumored.

The fact you are alone might say something about you being a troll. Look, let the mods handle it. There's only about 4 threads about it right now. I agree that this thread is pointless, but the best way to kill a pointless thread is to do nothing. Let it sink to the bottom.
Anyways, still waiting for either the exact original update or an odex'd version. So far sounds like all the things we heard about this release came true, so I'm pretty excited.

Cool guys thanks
It just needs someone with compiling knowledge
I have not got around to trying it, but i may get time later tonight...
The first thing is to see if the kernel is different between the g2 and the z, if not, we can pretty much use everything that the g2 is using... I think there will be minor differences though, but just speculating at the moment

I've just seen this thread. I've just posted the recompiled module on

gosh it's annoying that XDA won't allow me to post URLs. You'll need to cut and paste and remove the nasty space.

Rom wiki needs updating

Who thinks the Rom wiki needs updating? I think its alil out dated don't ya agree.
Seems pretty up to date to me, save for a couple things.
Also, this should *probably* be in general.

its more of a question than anything else.
It seems more like a "general discussion" than a question directly pertaining to Android and/or the EVO to me.
Whatever though, just pointing it out.

It's not just up to the devs. Users are supposed to update the wikis. Though if they want the correct information it should be left up to the devs.

HTC releases Desire Gingerbread kernel source code

http://www.htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads
Good news for anyone involved with tinkering around with software for the venerable HTC Desire. In accordance with open source rules, HTC has just released the kernel source code for the device's Gingerbread update, which was offered as an optional RUU for GSM Desires back in August. The move follows the release of a slew of other source code for more recent devices over the weekend, and should help out anyone involved with the lively Desire custom ROM scene.

Wohoo! How good is this?
haven't we had this for months?
I was thinking the same why hasn't any one made a post about it and I thought it would be in General section.
Aren't our devs already aware that gingerbread kernel for desire has been released sometime in Mid October along with few other kernels.
some people on this forum are to ignorant for their own good, jeez.

HTC Desire HD not getting ICS. Does this bode well for us?

Thoughts? I'm thinking we won't get it because of the 768mb of ram.

source on that?
Bad source information, from what's been discussed in other threads.
Have a look in the HTC Desire HD section and read the hubbub there.
So far as I can see there is no truth to this rumor. Mods are working overtime killing all the threads about it.
-CM7 on DInc2
I doubt we'll be affected since the Incredible S and the Chinese version of our phone already got ICS.
But this is Verizon, so I guess there is a ever so slight possibility of our phone not getting the update.
If this does happen, then..... Well, I'd rather not discuss it.

All the more reason for us to get worried. Similar to Telus, it is possible that VZW screws us over and says, sorry, NO OTA ICS for you, just because we couldn't make it work with all our god damn, useless and pointless bloatware... Which no one in the world uses.. Toodles. And oh, therefore no kernel source
