Hello,
Canadians or people who bought the telus desire, should be happy that telus is going to release 2.2 update in the month of October. But, sadly no official date has been given. I just wanted to share this with those who didn't root yet, like me lol...
Here's the link:
http://www.telusmobility.com/en/QC/htc_desire/index.shtml
Great news! I've already rooted and gone to CM6 in frustration waiting for 2.2, but this will be a great boost for Android in Canada. I think this will be the first 2.2 device we get here.
Uhh... and in other news, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD IF THERE'S ANYONE OUT THERE WITH A NON-ROOTED TELUS 2.1 DESIRE, could you PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make a RUU of it?
Uh, thanks. *picks self up off floor*

Hi guys,
This is my first post so please forgive my ignorance. I have just received a brand new HTC Hero from Orange UK as a replacement for my previous Hero that went faulty.
Anyway, I really want to install the Hero 2.1 ROM. However I have only ever messed around with OS changes when I used to install leaked updates to my BlackBerry.
Can anyone point me in the direction of a comprehensive guide to doing everything I need to do to install Hero 2.1 ROM or explain it to me?
Thank you all for any help that you can offer.

keep in mind that the 2.1 roms available are not fully functional yet. if you want something stable with everything working as intended go for mcr3.0, but that shouldn't stop you from testing new roms! just a note.
double post
Thanks for the link. I'm a pretty big idiot when it comes to this stuff but I'm always willing to give it a shot.
Is there much difference between MoDaCo 3.0 and the 2.1 ROM? I'm just looking for something that is a bit faster or more up to date than a 1.5 Orange UK OS.
For faster than stock, I would suggest modaco 3.0, since 2.1 will be on the way in the new year, and it isn't quite ready for everyday use yet.
But its up to you. Just don't go installing any rru updates if you want to root or install a custom ROM in future.
check out changelog of each of their final releases..and u'll wats added to them ..and wats still not working
RRU updates?

if you make that a question you might get an answer.
if you want speed go for modaco. the 2.1 roms tend to lag here and there, and as i said are not suitable for daily use. they work great for an early preview, but that's it.
Ahh OK sorry to keep on asking what are probably inane questions. I'm guessing since nobody has mentioned RRUs with MoCaDo, that they aren't involved.
I'll see how that ROM goes, hoping it uses HTC Sense UI as I really like the look of it but it's not essential.
I think I have to update the Radio for the MoCaDo update.
I'll probably post again if the change doesn't go well or I can't do it LOL
Thanks again guys.
hi mates.
i have a t-mobile branded desire, which i flash with unrevoked³. but i still can't install a stock RUU. i don't want to make a goldcard, because i don't have any micro SDs here, that i could use.
so, what am i missing?
edit: i'm on 1.21.110 t-mobile rom
*bump*
c'mon guys, i have bee eagerly waiting like you all, so PLEASE gimme a hint!
Afaik there no way w/o a goldcard, many ppl ran into probs doing it without GC
Flash a Custom ROM, Debranding Done
Don't mess about with RUU's
rooted offical froyo is out. why bother with the offical OTA update now?

Can some one please enlighten me i have just read this-
'Thanks for your email about the Android 2.2 software. I understand you're eagerly waiting for your order to be delivered
I'd like to inform you, that Android 2.2 software is not available with us. However, if you've been promised while upgrading your contract to HTC Desire phone. I'd request you to please visit the O2 store, wherein you had upgraded your contract. They'll be in a better position to help you in this matter.
I appreciate your patience in this matter and hope things get sorted for you soon. If you need any further help, feel free to contact us or visit our online Help Centre

Try UnrEVOked. If it works you can then just flash a pre-rooted Froyo.

Hu now ive just read -
An O2 spokesman told techradar.com: "We're working with HTC to bring the latest version of Android 2.2 Froyo to our HTC Desire customers as soon as possible. We expect this to take several weeks and we will update our customers once the new software is available."
Dont know what to believe DAMN
Sounds like a badly-informed customer service guy to me.
Dude don't worry, 2.2 will come to o2. Most people working for these mobile phone companies don't know anything that isn't on a script. In my experience its not even worth asking, they didn't even know what the Desire was a few days before its release.

Hello,
I'm undecided whether to upgrade to the latest build of the openetna project (the rc5 froyo), it looks like it's still buggy! My question is, where to find the early build (1.6 donut) and is it more stable? Plz help guyz as it's actually for my little brother, and he asked me to help him with it! Thanks!

Absolutely Nothing has worked for me so far, I would appreciate any input.
Thank you,

Anyone??
pfffft, don't highjack my thread player21 lol xD plus i'm talking about the eve not the "evo", i'm talking about the LG GW620
at least can someone tell me how to get this backup done on ubuntu? (i'm a linux noob)
zacpod(dot)com/p/71
what the hell is "unyaffs"?
I got my Eve recently and is much more useable with the open etna firmware. If you're looking for help with nandroid backup this is probably not the place to ask.
I recommend the cfw, if you're confused with the backup you should ask in the openetna forum

I am trying to downgrade to a lower version from Gingerbread for the past hour and each and every time, I am stuck at the screen given below, I have taken out the sdcard formatted it to FAT32, made a goldcard all the steps go fine, even no problem makin a goldcard, but I get stuck at this screen!!!! and it keeps sitting there. I have done all the above steps at least 3 times. I am following the guide by jkoljo .... How do I downgrade???? Anyone
By the way my desire HD is from India and the s/w no is: 2.37.720.3
***Bump***
please be patient waiting at least 24 hours, weekend and there are fewer people
I think HTC have patched the root exploit in build 2.37. This hasn't been confirmed yet but it's my opinion.
Thank you so much andyharney, your's is the first friendly human post so far ... other than the
Please be patient..

(no offense to you Sir SERGI.3210).
Back to you sir andyharney, if HTC has patched it, then I guess the only option is to twiddle my thumbs and wait for the patch.
andy can I download and update my DHD with the UK Gingerbread RUU..will that help anyways? or maybe can I downgrade to my previous stock rom, I have a PD98IMG.zip file for my previous stock rom (PD98IMG_Ace_hTC_Asia_India_1.84.720.3_Radio_12.28g.60.140f_26.05.05.27_M3_release_175158_signed)
Sadly not, as your current firmware is newer (2.37) than the WWE (2.36) RUU.

It is presumed that the Gingerbreak exploit has been patched up as of 2.37 and we all are waiting for a new exploit, in the meanwhile others have also been reporting the same issue using 2.37, have a look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003&page=149
And to fully knock yourself out, with the exploit thing go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1100183 and read post #5
Ok, I`ll just waiting. I wish luck to devs.
Thank God!
I am using RCMIX HD Kingdom v 1.2 with Sense 3.0 on my DHD and when I saw I downgrade guide from Gingerbread to get root access, I decided to upgrade to the official 2.3.3 in India. I saw the initial posts in that thread say that the method worked really well.
I had almost made up my mind to try the official update knowing that I can downgrade using the guide, but just before doing that I thought I'd read the more recent posts and guess what I realized the Indian software number 2.37.720.3 cannot be downgraded! Which means no root access and no custom ROMs (at least for now). I immediately changed my mind and didn't upgrade.
Thank God!
