I hope you realize there's a good chance you won't be able to root after you install this?
Downloading froyo 2.2 now from Asia. HK purchase from Australia. I'm sure they will find a way to root it...eventually.
you will lose root and can not force the apps to be installed on SD.

Apparently HTC has pulled off the 1.72 updates as a lot of people were having problems with the SD card failing. I believe HTC are working on another OTA to fix it and will be rolling out soon.
I belive update was removed from HTC and it was removed with reason. You should read this link for more informations. I am as well on 2.2 only, but as I saw how many problems were there with 1.72 OTA update, I am glad that I didn`t get that update
@dhiral.v & droidhd
Many thanks for the information Hope HTC would roll out soon the update!
ITALY Update

[Q] Official Swisscom ROM

Hi everyone,
So I'm here with my S-Offed HTC Desire wondering if someone has or know where to find original ROMs from swiss provider Swisscom.
Cause I'm very happy with my RCMix ROM but I was thinking of the day I would try to sell it and just thought that if I reinstalled an official RUU from HTC, the new owner would have troubles when an OTA update would arrive, because it requires a goldcard and the best would be to have a Swisscom ROM so the phone would run troubleless (even it would remain on poor 2.2 ).
BTW, if the phone remains S-Offed, do we really need a Goldcard, because if it works I could just put an official RUU, remove alpharev's boot screen and it would be ok, OTA updates without troubles (I remember that I tryed once to update when I just changed to official RUU from Swisscom's one and without a Goldcard the phone ran crazy haha).
Thanks
P.S. : If a swisscom's customer comes down here and has tried several Radios, could he or she tell which one seemed to work well with swisscom's network ? I didn't have time to try it seriously

There is also an ruu thread on the development section. You might be lucky
Sent from my HTC Desire
Hei,
Swisscom's ruu is the same as Vodafone UK.
So you can use the following ruu : RUU_Bravo_Vodafone_UK_1.19.161.5_Radio_32.36.00.28 U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126338_signed.exe
Bye,
TS
A huge thanks

BTW how did you find the information? I did some searches but didn't find anything ... Does this Rom come with some vodaphone apps?
I hope this thread can help other Swisscom customers

Because when I got my HTC Desire, there were several vodafone applications that could not be removed.
But, many people complained about that and now the rom is clean.

[Q] Which RUU to choose?

Hi Guys
A friend of mine is developing Android apps. He needs a 2.3.3 Android device for max. compatibility to test his apps. So I thought I could give him my old DHD. The problem is that there is currently CM7 installed. But he needs a device with a stock 2.3.3 Android Rom (unrooted!).
So I found this list with lots of RUUs.
Can someone tell me which I have to download? I need a 2.3.3 Rom without Sim-Lock and I live in Switzerland.
Thank you very much for your help!

Hi f_enzo,
Thx for your answer.
The HTC Desire HD has received a new software update in December 2010, the Android 2.2.1 version 1.72.405.3 which brings various improvements and some bug fixes.[6] As of January 2011 the 2.2.1 v 1.72.405.3 software update was pulled due to issues with the HTC Sense overlay.[7]
During May 2011 in Western Europe, an over the air update updated unlocked, unbranded Desire HDs to Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread and HTC Sense 2.1. On June 12 in Australia, an over the air update was available for unbranded Desire HDs taking them to Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread with HTC Sense 2.1. On July 2011, HTC announced via Facebook that it was testing Gingerbread for branded Desire HDs and HTC released the update at the end of July. With the Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread Update, the Desire HD now has the ability to set Wi-Fi proxy settings which was not available previously with Android 2.2 Froyo and has Sense 2.1.
In September 2011 it was reported that HTC plan to update the Desire HD to Android version 2.3.5,[8] which would provide, for example, voice and video calling with Google Talk.
On December 16, 2011 in Europe, an over the air update updated unlocked, unbranded Desire HDs to Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread and HTC Sense 3.0.

If you read the article about the DHD on wikipedia then you will see that Sense 3.0 comes with 2.3.5 and I need 2.3.3. So I think that would be the wrong Rom.
Oh, sorry for my bad answer
------EDIT------
Android 2.3.3 with Sense 2.1: RUU_Ace_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.50.405.2_Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2_release_199042_signed.exe

Thank you very much. I also tried out some Roms and stuck to the one you suggested.
You can also change the language to german although it's written WWE (world wide english).
