The ROM is now available, download.
----
The update is now confirmed and it will be available this weekend:
The Android 2.2 (FroYo) update for HTC Desire will start rolling out across Europe this weekend. As well as including the complete set of Android 2.2 features, the update will contain a few special additions of our own through the latest iteration of HTC Sense. The update will provide 720p video capture, HTC's App Share widget, as well as our enhanced HTC Caller ID, and improved multi-language keyboard. Also, through the update, HTC Sync will allow HTC Desire users to sync their music with iTunes.
HTC Desire users will be notified that the over-the-air update is available to download when their phone automatically checks for software updates. The update won't delete any of the phone's content. However, due to the size of the update, we would advise using a WiFi connection to download it wherever possible to avoid additional data charges.
This update will initially roll out to unlocked HTC Desire handsets. Operator specific versions of the update are undergoing testing and we expect to make them available in several weeks' time.

As seen in this news item on the dutch site Tweakers.net, Mark Moons (HTC Director Benelux) says that the froyo update for the Desire will begin to roll out this thursday (tomorrow).
I think this news update is very reliable as Mark Moons also tweeted it "We will start updating the Desire to 2.2 tomorrow, later more devices".
What do you think?
Read the same thing, I am hopeful.
However called the support line and they did not have official release date yet, but then again what do they know.
(i was actually the person which pointed them to the twitter feed)
I think we can assume Mark Moons wouldn't **** us about a Froyo roll out. I have to say they did it quite speedy.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Yeah! Just saw it as well (lol, 3 dutchies in 1 forum).
I'm looking forward to this week.
any guesses how many threads we can get going with the same thing?
Omg dutch people only thread =D
how very racist of you!
lol.
but yeah, it's on apparently, at least for the cloggies!
racists!! *justkidding*
that would be really nice news, so it would be awesome if you guys could report, if thats true.
hope in germany we're going to get it too
i'm from belgium but i speak dutch to so i want to say to i'm really happy, maybe im going back to the official rom
Wont be shocking for us flashers whove seen froyo before.but its nice to have the official update released.
He just posted a new message:
.Veel (o.a.) Tweakers kijken uit naar 2.2 met extra aandacht voor een specifieke feature.... maar 1 belangrijke wordt niet genoemd! rara...
(many (among others) Tweakers (dutch tech website) are looking forward to 2.2 with extra attention to a specific function (from replies on tweakers.net i deduce the a2sd function).....but 1 important one is not mentioned! who can guess it...
I'm guessing 720P recording.
It is now also posted on the official HTC NL twitter page:
http://twitter.com/HTC_NL
yes it´s comming....
even if the official 2.2 one will be released tomorrow, I will still wait for a custom one with A2SD+!
sorry i don't understand what you mean with A2SD+??? i thought this is a built-in feature of froyo? or do you mean something different?
it would be great if froyo would come tomorrow... i thought of rooting my desire this week, but now i will wait to see if froyo is officially coming to the desire
A2SD+ is a script that can install ALL apps to the SD-card on a new partition. Froyo can move and install all the apps to a seperate folder on your SD when the developer stated so.
Will Desire update by it self? i mean all i need is wifi turned on and check for updates in About Phone section?

IMHO with froyo you could do it yourself with official ROM:

Probably, it will be an over-the-air update and it will roll out over a few days because of bandwidth limits.
Personally i would advise anyone using debranded phones to use their gold cards when doing any possible OTA updates to avoid the problems experienced with the last OTA update!

I know they've been working on the Telus update at HTC... I was expecting to wait another 4-6 weeks, but I just checked the HTC website and they've added a "Software Download" section to the Telus Touch(Vogue/CDMA).
Right now, the section has no content, but perhaps they're making room for the new rom?
Woohoo.. Thanks f-ing god. I messed up my pri when i was trying to make my gps work better. F5 F5 F5

Try updating the PRL again, dial *22803 (On Telus) and listen to the prompts.
yeah i figured it out. Flash new sprint test rom, update PRI with PPST.exe, do a reset using ##786#, then update PRL and provision phone using *22803. GPS works way better now, because of the GPS portion from the Sprint PRI. Check the stickied thread at ppcgeeks.com
The update for Telus has been delayed a little longer...
I've been told that it was considered for release, but they found a 'bug.' What the details are, I have no idea (nor do I know if the rep was telling the truth), but supposedly Telus and HTC both thought it'd be best to work on it some more. Neither company was able to tell me what the new approximate release date is. Last time, it was 4-8 weeks. We're on week 4 of that now, I think. Maybe they'll still make it by week 8?
Telus update.... Finally!!

Go to the official HTC site and download your 6.1 update. I just checked it out and the downloads there. I'm about to install the rom and see how everything is. I'm not sure if it has gps or not (fingers crossed)

Aaron, how did the install go? I see no links on either the Bell or Telus pages which would enable either Rev A or GPS

The link was bad on the telus update page. I tried calling their support line to at least report it but the number was out of service so I emailed and asked about the rom, if someone could fix the link and if that was going to take a while to just email me the rom if possible, as well as asking if this enabled the GPS antenna.
I couldnt sleep (its 3:30 am) and just checked the site... well now the page is completly empty. It aparently was easier to wipe the page clear as opposed to just linking to the right rom.
At least we know what to look forward to with the rom when they fix all of this. Rev A, WM 6.1 and I can assume.. but could be wrong... but GPS or AGPS since Telus navigator would use this. Although I think thats a subscription based program I'm not sure. I use tomtom and navigon so... yeah... Hopefully soon!!!

I'm very interested in the Samsung Galaxy S, after all the messing about with HTC I've lost some confidence!
Shame, I've had Tytn's, Nike's etc.
Not much point having the official 2.1 as the dev's roms here are of such a high quality anyway.

Is it just me, or is the Samsung Galaxy S trying REALLY hard to look just like an iPhone?
Also, as they will be having their own version of Sense (eco something) it will mean that Samsung are probably going to take ages to update things. Also, look at the i7500 (the first Galaxy - AFAIK Samsung never released an official update for the phone). That never even managed to hop onto the 1.6 bandwagon - let alone 2.0 or 2.1!
I get it from many places, that HTC lied
Don't just talk, send the link. Many blog, site published rumors to get some attention
And like the gossip people forgot to tell, that "it looks like" and they just say "HTC says"
I think it's stupid to blame HTC for some people's made-up idea, don't you think so?
They release many phones, great phones, and I'm pretty sure, they work a lot on those and on Hero 2.1.

yep !
folks , today is the day that we´ve been waiting so long
Finally!
Yeah!!! Now we'll waiting till someone of dev ripping firmware from FOTA update.
So, anyone have dump of 2.73.751.13 stock ROM so we could apply OTA update patches to it?
I'm an HTC Desire owner and have been waiting and waiting for Orange to offer up a date when users can expect an update.
I've called Orange several times now and until now have been given the usual ' this update usually takes up to four weeks'.......that is until now.
I just got off the phone with Orange customer service and the call operator and I had a quick chat, he popped me on hold for about a minute then came back and told me they now have on their systems a release date of August 27th. He confirmed that I wil receive a text message telling me to download the update and that's still I'll need to do.
I thought I would share so other Orange UK Desire owners can also relax with the checking system updates every 5 minutes.
Awesome.

may I suggest something, root, flash stock 2.2, unroot.. lost warrenty for however long it will take you to flash a new ROM and bring the warrenty back by unrooting, simple
I wonder if they left out the Orange baggage to release it earlier rather than later...

The RUU won't be out for a while if at all, will probably just be an OTA for now.
must be a way to write a script to check the servers manually?
Bear in mind that if you apply the Orange froyo update you won't be able to root, and you probably won't be able to downgrade, leaving no options to debrand or root at all.

At least for a while (maybe forever)
It's something to be very wary of for anyone who wants to try out Orange's update. People who updated to the Vodafone froyo release are in the same position.
Hi guys
Just had my update from tmobile 2 days ago some i think the update is from Germany as i got few feature in the phone are German related...was just wondering why didnt my update inculde the 3d menu look similar to the one in this clip
youtube com / watch?v=W9XrNiC5LbI
Thanks
Amjad
erm. because that video clip isnt the Android 2.2 with 'Sense' built in ....
You could try something like LauncherPro instead of the Sense Home which gives a few more flashy graphics ....
The update does seem to be the German one (is well documented on here, please search next time) but it also seems the UK and German T-Mobile ROMs have the same vendor code (x.xx.110.x) which is a bit confusing...
(Hope this thread doesn't exist already!)
When I was about to continue with my app, I noticed the "New Update"-Message on my HTC Trophy and then started updating it.
Zune said it's the HTC-Update (look at attachment (sorry but I'm german )).
Currently I have NoDo on my phone, so I'm curious whether someone else had this HTC-specific Update.
The Phone is still updating.
Will keep you updated!

Today I got the same message, when I connected my HTC 7 Pro to my computer, I haven't installed it yet. Does anyone knows what it changes?
Yesterday I updated my phone to NoDo with the hack and I'm hoping it has nothing to do with that I just asked the guys on facebook, what this update is about, hopefully they know something.
I've already created a topic like this. Yes, I received that too with my Trophy 7. Nothing changed. At least, I didn't noticed.

Yeah, but why then bring out an extra update for that, when nothing changes? Seems a bit silly to me
Could be a fix to the caller id bug:

(apparently xda doesn't allow me to post urls yet so replace the ** with tt)
But I dunno, haven't gotten the update myself yet so can't test it out.
A lot of people were reporting gradient issues they noticed after installing the nodo update on their HTC devices. Maybe that was the fix for it? I for one don't have any gradient issues anymore.
No updatr for me.

SFR france HTC trophy, just got NODO and the HTC update in a single update.
I didn't have NODO yet, the update message came this morning. I found it a bit strange that it was branded as an "HTC update" but didn't think much of it.
The update took a while, but it did install NODO and the HTC update at the same time.
so who got the bing voice search feature in us or uk?
phone, region, firmware, bootloader please xD
i have not seen any update after my NODO... HD7 unbranded...
Unbranded HD7, no update.
