Hello all,
First, I would like to thank everyone for all that they have done on this forum.
I currently Run DamageControl 3.5 and and stock Eclair with Root as well. I love them both.
However, my friend just got an Evo and he did the OTA update to FROYO right away. The only problem is, I am not sure how to root him, or where to send him. I have looked around and can not really find any information. My assumption is that getting him back to eclair is the fastest way. I am not sure.
Any thoughts?
It's not possible .. yet.
Please read the Q&A section, there's a sticky.

Thanks to both of you!
You can downgrade, using one of the previous builds.. try a search, I used simple root for one of my phones, then upgraded to 2.2 froyo with netarchy's newest build.

Huh? I don't think that's correct information
from the very useful information i have ben reading on this forums, once u got froyo, you are stuck, theres no going back to previous versions or rooting untill further notice. i may be incorrect, but thats my understanding.
Once you install OTA Froyo, YOU ARE STUCK WITHOUT ROOT for now. Sit back wand wait, there is currently no way to root it.
Also, this belongs in Q&A forum, not dev.

Make it two thousand and i'm in. I have tried forty different combos from trying to change the some codes without breaking the signature to going old school running loop.bat then trying to push the update.zip or Image right after it has verified the signature( This method is dangerous but Dev's know what i am talking about). My head just popped.
So...how to put Gingerbread on Desire with Froyo? I want to do it

You cant put GB directly into the Desire, as update for the Desire GB is not ready yet, instead try GB port ROMS, like Oxygen or Ginger Villain
Here is the Desire Index, and go to links in Ginger Bread ROM section:

Ok Thank you for your answer
So, can you tell me, please, what about S-OFF, root and unlocking in case to put stock GB on my device (I found some ways how to put stock GB )?
And if I loose all of that, can I make it again as on Froyo?

S-Off information Here.
Root, unlock information Here
AdamG's DevNull rom is probably the closest thing to stock GB there is. To make it Froyo again you could Nandroid restore to your original Froyo rom, Flash on a froyo rom, or run an RUU and restore your device to an official Froyo build.

Its weird, that you have managed to do S-OFF and ROOT(ok, its not difficult) and then not sure how to do reflash of new ROM?
Anyway, if you reflash, your ROOT and S-OFF will stay, so not to worry

So, if I can have some suggestion, if you want clean, fast and most importantly stable Gingerbread, go for REDUX, its so far the best GB ROM I have tried.
But if you want Sense(I understand, I love Sense as well and it took me a while to get used on Sense free roms) then I'd recommend ReflexTSense, which unfortunately, still is 2.2, but its great HD rom, very nice, designed for big screen and everything looks smaller on original Desire(and better)

hi i installed official gingerbread(modded by Alex with data2ext) rom yesterday... haven't had much time using it yet to see all the changes... t first sight, nothing really spectacular, i am a bit deceived tbh.. waiting for so long for this... first thing i checked was camcorder; results 720p still sucks: it lags and i have a class 10 kingston card... then tried 480p... lags also (audio and video out of sync....).... so camcorder was not fixed.. anyway, here are some questions about the official gingerbread:
- is bluetooth fixed? (can i use a wiimote e.g.?)
- is the call delay issue found in all gingerbread roms patched by htc?
- 7 digits call id fixed? (does not seem so at first sight)
i am getting a bit bored with htc sense tbh, thought they would put latest sense on it... guess i will soon go back to custom sense 2.1/3.0 roms
do u know how can root the official gengerbread i also upgrad to the 2.3.3 and want to root it to instal recovery and use my backup
Please people, READ and use SEARCH.
There are million threads already, that the official 2.3 upgrade
CAN NOT be rooted yet after you installed on your phone due to HBOOT change.

Maybe he used snq- kernel, try different ROM which is using htc kernel.

Actually there are people saying it is possible, but majority says it is not.
You'll get a version newer/older error.

I received a Wildfire S (HTC Mavel) from a friend. It has 2.2.1 installed. Like to replace it with a 2.3.x rom. Couldn't find any available rom nor instructions how to create one for this device.
Question: Has anyone tried the rom meant for Buzz on a Mavel?
There's a wildfire s section in these forums, I can't get you the link as the PC is at the other side of my room, it's early and cold so I'm not getting outta bed......
I haven't seen any posts about a buzz rom working on a wildfire s, maybe you could be the first?
Try clicking on the little home sign near the top of the page if your on a computer, if your on a phone app click forums at the top and scroll down till you see wildfire s section.

Shouldn't it have come with Gingerbread already Installed? I remember it had 2.3 installed before it was launched, since the Barcelona Mobile Phone Congress...
If not, you can OTA update it...

Mine is running 2.2.1 and is pretty messed up. The WiFi does not work either. Which is why I want to try updating it to 2.3 - perhaps with an aftermarket ROM with source that I can play with
Well better try on the Wildfire S forum section.
If I were you I would Factory Reset> OTA Update to Gingerbread and not use any custom RoM.
It is just me...I prefer sense

Thanks. Will try looking for the Wildfire S forum.
I dont know if this is the right topic to put it but i still do it
http://nl.hardware.info/nieuws/26819/htc-maakt-bekend-welke-telefoons-een-update-naar-ics-krijgen
Is a dutch website.
It says something like, here is the list of all devices which will get an ICS update in the beginning of the year 2012.
And dhd is listed, will this mean that we get a proper ics?
And a aosp rom of it?
I don't wanna blame you, but this list is out for some time now.
And yes, it means we will get a proper ICS for DHD. Or at least the right Camera drivers for DHD!!! There are already some nice Builds to use!

Yea i know there are different roms avaible, but their all ports of other devices, and none of them run flawlessly, and it doesnt seem to matter which radio you use.
Therefore i asked if there will be a proper aosp ics rom?
Think it was more like an announcement from HTC that ICS will be coming to these devices in the next few weeks.
So I guess HTC will release "ICS" for HTC Ace around April 1st ^_~ lol
Don't get your hopes up. HTC takes forever to roll out updates

No, not until HTC releases their drivers and kernel.
I am currently on IceColdSanwich and I love it. But the glitches and things.. Well if HTC is smooth and fast (well maybe!!) I might give up on flashing my phone every week.
:-D
cant wait to get the ice from htc but wright now im on the IceColdSandwich - 7.0 - AOKP | ERROR404 EDITION and it runs great
