Put it on your what? xD But I'll wait here for you.
Ste,
you should be able to get it now from http://91.109.1.220/nand/
let me know if you're able to download it.
Ah right thanks for the download.
Ah great it's still not working :/ I have had it working loads but it refuses now
Bootloop?
I'm guessing it depends on what is in the OTA update that's flashed on top of the existing setup.

Yea but usually if I flash the froyo update a couple of times it gets rid of clockwork mod recovery maybe I need a newer nandroid.
After I get rid of clockworkmod I can usually flash the update again and it removes bootloops.
The nand I've tried with was taken just before the last update. So, no updates missed.
For the future, if there's anyone out there running a rooted upto date Orange handset, please take a nand and share.
Then, when another update comes through, we can try again

Well it used to work I'm just confused why it doesn't now.
And you've tried your old nand and update?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I put my old nand on flash the update and all that happens is that it sits on the htc logo after I reboot when the update.zip has finished installing.
Is that with the old update? Not the most recent?
If so, that's weird as its worked before....

Yea I put the old one on first then kinda update with the next .zip then the bnext one. The 2.17.61.2 update usually removes the clockworkmod recovery.
Does your phone work with the 2.17.61.2 update? Without applying the most recent ota? But still with clockworkmod.

Is it okay to install official OTA if S-OFF with Alpharev HBoot?
NEVER INSTALL OTA UPDATES ON ROOTED PHONES.

Answered at least a million times.
It doesn't work no matter what you try. My Desire's now back to factory default because I sent it off to be factory reflashed after rooting it and finding no way to install the latest OTA update.
All the threads with people having issues after doing it says something different. Also a Ruu should have worked fine to get latest official rom. Which is the way to go if you don't want a custom rom but do want the latest OTA update.

Hello everyone,
As you can see I am new to the site as well as rooting in general. This is my first HTC phone and it came stock with the gingerbread update. I've seen so many ROM's that I would love to use but can't since I'm not rooted. Is there any way to use them without a rooted phone.
P.s - I can't wait till I can root this phone to obtain free wi-fi tethering. I can't pay for that my bill is already $92 a month.

No. You need root to flash roms.
You have to be rooted in order to flash any roms my friend...
Nitpick: You need to be rooted to flash any custom ROM.
More nitpick: He needs root to flash a custom recovery/spl, but technically do not need root after that. But most ROM comes pre-rooted for a good reason.

I appreciate the reply guys, thanks.

Every thing I've found was for people already rooted. I am looking to root a EVO that already has this OTA update but does not have a root yet.
How can I root it? Is it possible? I have Unrevoked but it says firmware too new. I did a factory reset, tried it in charge only, and disk drive, no dice.
