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.

Flash

Hi all,
I have the flash that came with the Froyo update on my phone.
But when I open the market I also see the flash for download.
Is there a difference in the too?
When there is an update for flash how do I get it? since the current flash is not being recognized in the market.
BTW the one in the market is newer.
Thanks

You need to download the flash from the market as this is indeed the update. Once you have done it the market will recognise you have flash and then you will be notified of further updates. It's the same story with the Facebook app.
Thanks

[Q] Installing OTA when root

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.

[Q] no rom??

The other day i got LeeDrOiD 3.0.3, but i now want to get rid of it and get my phone back to how it was before i flashed a rom and rooted.
So how can i get rid of a custom rom and get it back to stock android 2.2 and be able to update my phone with normal android and htc sense updates.
(I didn't preform a nandroid backup as at the time i thought that it was just backing up all my photos and music and stuff.)
HELP!!!!

New ota; safe to update?

I have a rooted htc desire, with stock rom, but with clockworkmod. Today, I received a notification that a new ota update is out. I understand that I will lose my root, but is it safe to update through ota? Will it replace the custom recovery?
I already have problems with cwm. It doesn't work... it says that it can't mount cache, and I can't flash anything with it, nor make a factory data reset.
Is there a risk my phone will get bricked?
I really want this 3.0 update.
So...is it safe to update?

Download the update first. Before installing it, upload it here and let's have a look at it. Btw, its highly unlikely that the update is 3.0

Tell me if the download works.
And I was talking about the new Htc sense 3.0. Did you see how cool ot looks? XD

Thanks. I'm taking a look and will try to get you a flashable zip for rooted phones tomorrow. Can you upload your system/build.prop after renaming it to system/build.prop.txt ?
This is the build.prop.txt

This is a rooted OTA update for 2.29.405.5 which upgrades it to 2.29.405.14. To be applied by people who've rooted their phones, but havent applied any custom rom. It's a collection of binary patches for 2.29.405.5 firmware. Applying it should be safe in the sense that it shouldnt disturb your recovery/kernel.
This has not been tested on my phone, and hence is an alpha at the moment. Follow usual precautions like taking Nandroid backup before applying.

Thanks, anything juicy in that OTA?
No way to know unless someone installs it and sees. There should have been been a description in the original OTA notice.

I don't see any harm in taking the update. Afaik it is just a radio update which can be reversed by running the ruu back to an older version. Try it and let us know your results.

It brings me to the cwm recovery menu and when I locate the update -sdcard/downloads/update that's where it is, it says this software could render your phone incompatible but it's an ota update
So it should work. I'm just scared to brick this phone I just got it two days ago so I could return and say it's not working I want another but I got it on sale and I don't know if they would do that or if I have to pay the extra 100$ which I can't do. Do if it doesn't start up what could I do to fix it? Like when you flash you have to fastboot a boot.zip file right? How do I do that? I'm still on stock obviously and I have a backup of my current status and completely brand new stock, thanks guys

To install the OTA update, you'll need to restore the stock recovery, stock kernel, and most likely relock your bootloader. If you are using Virgin Mobile, be warned, the OTA is not compatible with any roms or kernels available now. If you try to install any custom roms or kernels, you will be stuck in a bootloop and will have to RUU back the older version to install them.

Ok thank you I am using virgin mobile but I like the stock phone I feel changing roms is too much work and I feel as if I won't like them plus I need a computer 24/7 and also I don't feel comfortable with switching back and forth all the time if I don't like anything. Mods can delete this if they'd like I got my answer thank you guys
