Anyone up to get the latest build ? Or maybe new radio ?

wow, new build number!!

Wow we are waiting for the official relase...

May be somebody can share details (Radio, Webkit and utc.) about this ROM?

I tried to look around but can't find any.
Anyone can pull out from HTC SEA server, maybe ?

I've upgraded mind using the various radio and roms eversince europe got them first. So. I wont be able to get the FOTA unless I revert to the original rom and radio. So if anyone can pull it out of the server and post them here, would be highly appreciated.

when it will be available ? i tried to update and it says that my phone is allready up to date.

supposed to be on the 30th August

what is the radio version ?

Htc desire firmware update

Just been to the HTC website and noticed a new OTA firmware update on there.
I don't have my phone yet so can anybody confirm what improvements this offers?
Cheers
great hopefully it will solve all or at least couple of issues the users had so far
Did a manual update and it said I had the latest ...
sadly HTC rarely do change logs.
Although it must be very minor as it's only going from 1.15.405.3 to 1.15.405.4
Where on the HTC Site? I cannot see it?
I wonder if this is a quick response to the rooting of the Desire?
I hope not!
I'm on 1.15.110.10 do I have to wait for T-Mobile to update the software or will it be pushed asap?

should be pushed ASAP.
go into status and try a manual check. bear in mind that if it's done like the other devices when they get ota'd, it may be done over several days. so you may not get it till after the weekend.
Yours should go to 1.15.110.11
This 1.15.405.4 is the ROM that reviewers such as Tracy and Matt had right? I think that was the number in the video.
Just have to wait to see how long it takes T-mobile to push this out now.
Oh, and orange devices would go to 1.15.61.10 btw.
i got it via OTA earlier today but as you all know, NO INFO whatsoever! looks no different however hopefully will improve the shocking battery life......
YEAH RIGHT!
It mentions it on this page:
http://www.htc.com/europe/support.aspx
Doesn't say what's changed though...
Have not noticed any changes myself, most probably all back-end stuff.
What's all this about 405 builds for HTC and 110 builds for tmob and 60 builds for Orange?
Makes no sense.
My tmob phone notified me of an update today, but at the time I had to cancel it as I was busy. Now when I go to manually check for update it says I'm already up to date.
So where did it go?
First option on the "About" tab manual update.
Will I need to have the T-Mobile sim in for it to find the update then?
I have the 1.15.110.10 on my t-mobile and it wont manually update for me at all
Is the Desire going to be like some other tmobile phones and you cant get the official updates?
I have looked on the HTC support site and while it does say there is an update, can't it be downloaded via the site too?

Build number has always been difference between generic and branded HTC devices.
I've don my update, can't see any real change though. Maybe a miner update.
Things are much smooth on my Desire then my Nexus one.
Just checked for any updates on my Desire and it said there was one available, it downloaded no problem it changed my software number to 1.15.405.4 sorry I have no idea what it was before it was changed.

so if I unlock the device, HTC will automatically be able to know that and it will update with the generic update?

02 UK Deisre abroad will it update to 2.2

as per subject
My Desire was bought from O2, so has it's firmware.
I'm moving abroad next month, will I still get an update to 2.2 ?
I won't be using O2.. will that stop me ?
Would I be better flashing it with a generic rom ?
Thanks

It's about choice...
Why you need flashing? if you Desire daily usage for Phone, SMS, Chat and Check Email and little bit Browse the net.. I think wait until official release for Desire much better than Rooted/Flashing your phone
Thanks for the reply.
I'd prefer not to flash or root it if I can help it.
The question really is will a UK O2 Desire automatically upgrade to 2.2 if used in New Zealand, with Vodafone ?
Thanks
Probably not. My understanding is that receiving updates is dependent on your current version. I'm on Meteor in Ireland, for example, but I won't receive any specific Meteor updates, because I have the generic HTC firmware.
So if you're on a kiwi network, with the O2 software, you'll get neither the HTC update nor any update your new network rolls out.
So either debrand now and get the HTC update whenever it's released, or wait until it comes out and flash the 2.2 rom directly.
One other thing you could do is take it to Vodafone in New Zealand and ask them to flash their own software on it. Since you're a new customer, they'll most likely oblige.
But that's if they even stock the Desire, btw. If they don't you'll have to do it yourself.
One thing to keep in mind re:carrier specific firmwares is that it may take an awfully long time for upgrades to trickle down. You could be looking at an additional month or more between HTC releasing it and your carrier releasing it.
And even when they do, they might disable certain features (wi-fi tethering, for example, isn't too popular with mobile operators)
Thanks
that is what I'd thought..
I suppose the only other thing would be if O2 released it for download, then I could manually install it !!
Are there still issues with wifi and the generic rom ?
Yeah, that's another way. Bookmark this link:
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bravo/
The only issues were with people who people who debranded their phone and flashed to the generic rom. But for anybody else, there's no issues whatsoever.
Thanks
If I change the ROM is there any risk ? I'm not bothered about root, but would like to have the option of 2.2 when I'm not in the UK.
can you point me to a firmware flashing guide ?
Thanks again.
Well this is the latest (generic) rom update:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=684259
Very easy to install. Just download the .exe to your PC, and open it while your phone is plugged in. The installer will walk you through.
I don't know if it's that simple for branded phones though. You might have to debrand first... I honestly couldn't say. You might ask in that thread and list your FW number. Maybe somebody else will know.
You're sure it's a branded phone, yes? There's no .405 in the version number?
My firmware is : 1.20.207.3 CL171460 release-keys
I'll ask in the other forum.
Thanks

[Q] New phone - no 2.2 upgrade available.

This is my first post and before I start I would like to say thank you in advance for any help I may get, I do not take it for granted and I am very grateful.
I bought a Clearance Desire from mobiles.co.uk which is supposed to be unlocked and unbranded, when I try an OTA update to try and get froyo I get the message that the phone is up to date. Current Firmware etc is:
Firmware version: 2.1-updated
Kernel Version: 2.6.29.0cb9f166
Build number: 1.21.405.2 CL174215 release keys
Software Number: 1.21.405.2
I have been trying for 2 weeks with no success.
This is my first phone of this type I normally make do with my sons old phone.
Hope someone can point me in the right direction.
Thank You
Frank
You can find what you need in the following thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=741518
Thank you, followed the instructions and it updated just fine. Does anyone know why the OTA update cannot be located on some phones? Is it just this update or will I always have to manually update?
Frank
It's not a issue of the device, but rather that you are trying to update a little late to 2.2, although other users had the same problem when the OTA was just released.
In other words, you will most likely get further OTA updates the easy way .

This does not sound like a outdated rom as even the older roms would send an MMS. Nor radio.
I have seen this if in a fringe service area. Do you have good service where you are at? If so call your provider to verify the APN settings if need be.
Yeah, an old software version should not have anything to do with it. Most Bell Z's out there are probably running around on stock, which is version 1.34.
Is your internet working?
Urgent? Lol

SM-T837A not updating to android 10

Hi. I have the AT&T LTE version of the tab s4, SM-T837A. I read that the android 10, One UI 2.1 update for my device went live a month ago, but I'm not receiving any updates. I'm on android 9, One UI 1.1. It says I'm up to date. Any ideas how I can get this update? Does anyone know a safe place I can download it from and do it manually? Sammobile doesn't seem to have it... At least, I can't find it.
If it matters, I don't have a SIM card currently installed on the tablet.
Thanks for your help.
-Dave
because your info is wrong. only the samsung stock versions got the update. all carriers are lagging behind as usual. still waiting for my Tmobile variant also. you can look on sammobile.com and browse the firmware database to confirm what i'm talking about. T837A didn't get the update yet. it;s still on 9
Yes I have the same question. I found only the wifi model is updated to Android 10. Has anyone on a carrier device flashed the wifi version?

No you can't, if the device is locked to the carrier...you have to wait update from your carrier ,if it gives the upgrade of course
Att issued the update a few weeks ago, and a smaller update hit my T837a today. It contains September security update and a new radio firmware. link to imgbb if the attachment doesn't work as I'm getting an NGINX error. I been here since 2007 never seen such before...

Still won't update
I have the AT&T version of the Tab S4 and it still shows I'm up to date, yet I'm still on the January 1, 2020 security patch does anyone know what to do?
I am in the same boat. AT&T Tab S4 will not update. Is there any way to manually flash? I don't see the update available to download
Complain to att. I pissed and moaned to online live chat support after the international version got it's update. Complained every couple of weeks until finally they asked for my imei, then a few weeks later I checked for updates and it did the 10 update.
