anyone know when 3UK might be releasing the 2.2 update as i have looked everywere and found nothing solid about a release date??
I read on another forum that rollout will be complete within two weeks, possibly hitting OTA servers from Monday. It sounds likely to be accurate, 3 cannot possibly drag it out any longer.

I ended up debranding mine as I got sick of waiting for three to release update.

I was close to debranding too, but decided to wait, as I can't see what difference it will make for me. Apart from apps2sd I can't see what benefit I'll get from 2.2

Does anyone know when the HTC aria will get froyo!? I have heard of versions out there that have issues with them. I'm not looking to brick my device but I don't want to wait for the official update since there has been no word of the release.

I'm hearing of some unbranded UK Desires receiving an OTA update to Gingerbread, has anyone else seen this? Nothing on mine yet, and since it's unbranded I imagine it's not a staggered rollout.
Anyone know what's going on, or are my sources false?
I've not heard anything to maybe a fail. I guess if you find HTC's RUU then it will be rolling out soon. About now is when it's rolling out so maybe so.
Well after some checking I can confirm that a desire, possibly on TMob got a system update a couple days ago, but can't confirm whether it was 2.3 or just a pre update of some sort, also not sure if the desire is branded or not.
unfortunately the phone is a work phone that my friend doesn't have currently so can't get any more details at this moment.
Nothing here. Unbranded handset :-(

HTC Official Update
I received the following email today from HTC Customer Care in response to a question as to when they will fix the widely reported Google leak (potential security flaw in Android).
In regards to your last response, in order to to get the security update when it is being issued, you have to have a base of the 2.3 Gingerbread update on your handset, in which case will be released this summer for devices such as HTC Desire.
Currently we do not have a specific date as to when the 2.3 will be released for other handsets as at this time the update is only being issued to HTC Desire HD and HTC Incredible S.
summer? geeez... I thought it was going to be anytime soon this month... Bit fed up of waiting...

...based on GB leak whose base is buggered. Until we get an official OTA we can't hope for stable GB Sense roms.

I asked a HTC representative at work last week, she said the HTC Desire will stay with Android 2.2

Check my sig. I can't say I noticed something actually does not work, which I can say for some other roms people swore are rock stable, but it drains battery and there is obvious lag especially with alternative launchers and animations. That said, I can cope with some lag, but I can't cope with memory leaks, bootloops, ads etc.
So you can't just yet say it is as it is meant to be, but it comes to that this actually works. Not extra smooth, but it does.

hi guys wonder if you can help have just installed the Sky Go app but it wont load any media then i read "Sky Go is not supported on any Android device that has been rooted" is there away to get it to work
SGS2 with CF-ROOT
cheers
Ah, so that's what that message says. Flashes past so quick I can't read it and then sticks on "loading 1/100".
Would also be very interested in anything the genii of xda can do for us...
mine Just comes up with "Sorry, Sky Go is not currently supported on this device. Please see FAQS for more information." think this is because i'm running an ICS rom any way to get round this?
Currently doesn't work on:
1. ICS;
2. anything rooted; and
3. anything that is not a Samsung Galaxy S, Samsung Galaxy S II, HTC Desire, HTC Desire S, HTC Desire HD, HTC Incredible or HTC Sensation
which is ****e really. Hence we are at the mercy of the great and the good of xda to do what Sky couldn't/wouldn't and get this working properly on, primarily, rooted devices and then deal with the other problems.

Hi all, to those that use the skygo app. It is unsupported atm. Just as I got the hang of using a UK VPN to get if working on my sg2 as well
Hopefully this can be sorted soon by our hard working devs when they get into full swing

Yeah I wouldn't get too excited about having SkyGo working on your One X just yet, considering barely any places even say its released and this is Sky we are dealing with..
Wouldn't the one from the Samsung galaxy nexus work?

This is really sad as one of the reasons I upgraded my contract for this phone is so I could watch my Sky F1 when I'm out and about. Guess i'm screwed now.

Was working fine on my sg2 with stock ics. Just needs a small mod by someone in the know then it'll work I'm sure. Here's hoping.

Very true. I don't understand why they couldn't release software that is compatible with all gingerbread phones in the first place... But I have no knowledge of the ins and outs

Try this one
Seems to install ok, but just sticks at loading when i tap watch.
Have temp unrooted the rom using supersu, but maybe it's still seeing the SU?
Anyone tried on a non-rooted device?

Just tested with my stock rom and everything works good until it reaches the part where I click watch and then it just gets stuck at Loading and then after about 30 seconds it restarts the Skygo app.
This is using the the provided on the link on page 1
Sky have always been incredibly paranoid about data encryption, and they have a lot riding on it with the actual owners of the content they provide. Limiting support to a handful of Gingerbread-based phones that are big sellers (S2, Desire, etc) and trying their hardest to prevent it running on any rooted Android device ensures they won't end up providing free Sky Sports to Orange customers who stick the APK on a rooted Google TV and show football in a pub - or worse, manage to decrypt the stream and throw access open to the wider world.
It sucks, but I can understand the slow rollout. When ICS numbers get above the current 3%, and when the One X proves to be a big seller over the next few months, I'm sure we'll be supported.
Just on this a thought I had is sky will never release it for one x.reason being they all ready block it working with HDMI out,but I don't see how they could block WiFi out to the media link so far that reason is be suprised if they updated it for the one x

Just a heads up, official SkyGo app for HTC One X now available on play store. As detailed on Techradar.com.
Doesn't work with rooted phones though!
