obviously, the answer is not desired!

I wondered this too...
Obviously they are some sort of 'version' numbering system...
mine is an unbranded Desire - shows: PVT1.
The thread linked above suggests PVT4 is newer so that's my thinking behind that.
I don't know any real differences between them though???

Just different builds probably, I've no idea. I'm on PVT1 too - got my Desire a week after its release

I always thought that PVT was some sort of like security thing or linked to it.

Oops! meant to start a new thread

the Difference in betwwn pvt1/2/3/4/ ship desires
Many people are encountering problems which are on pvt4 ship..
The basics that desire shipped and manufactured FOur type of devices PVT1,2,3,4.... the pvt4th is the last segment of the shipment.
The difference between these device is the different SYSTEM BLOCK SIZE and ERASE SIZE....
in pvt4..it is the least..while pvt1 is greatest..means most competible..
GOT IT???
Hit thanks

How to flash original rom

hi all,
im sorry if im a noob, i tried searching the forum but i havent found out how to flash an original rom. i saw the thread for original roms but i cant seem to update my hero and an error occurs. my build number is 2.73.707.9146733. got it in singapore. trying to update to 2.73.728.5 (sea) hope this helps!
thanks!
Any particular reason why you want to "upgrade"? Bear in mind that all 2.73.???.??? are pretty much the same, as the last two parts of the build number essentially indicate carrier/region, and a higher number doesn't necessarily indicate a more recent build.
Of course, some builds are "lesser" because certain apps (often Market) haven't been included, but in terms of performance they should be pretty similar.
Regards,
Dave
i see. should i "want" to upgrade, if its an official rom, i should just run it and it would work right?how would i know if my device is in wwe or sea?
thanks Dave!
The RUU will check the CID of your phone, and if it doesn't like it for whatever reason, it won't flash. I couldn't tell you how to determine whether your phone is WWE or SEA (South East Asia?).

Dave

HTC CID Change - Is this interesting ?

Hi,
Since we added this feature to few latest HTC models repair DLL-s, which enables users to update or change CID to any desired value upon unbricking procedure, i have few lame questions :
Note that our main field before was in Motorola, so we still consider our self to be newbies in HTC field.
- Is there list of official CID numbers available ?
- Is there still some "super CID" as used to be with older HTC models ?
Though this includes opening, soldering and requires skilled and trained hands, I think some guys from this board would find this exciting.
Even more - long time I was thinking to open some thread on this board and ask if there is any of You guys willing to contribute, since we could give few boxes for free to people who could and can use it.
Thank You. (i hope i posted this in right section ? )
HTC__001 to HTC__044, HTC__Y13, HTC__N34, HTC__A07, HTC__E11, HTC__J15 etc i can compile a whole list of those if you can provide me with a nice lil box :O superCID is still 11111111 i think.. dont know if 8 of same digits work as well. ;x
still intrested? :O in my opinion its better to leave it open, manually put in 8 digits or characters for the CID lol. would LOVE to play with those roflmao
I just found this thread by googling for CID change, cause I'd like to know how to do that, you apparently claim to be able to, please enlighten me on how you do that and particularly which parts need soldering, exactly.
thanks for share

[Q] I know one of you are smart enough to figure this out...

So, this is what I show:
baseband : 2.15.0.11.19
build : 3.70.651.1 CL294884 release-keys
software number 3.70.651.1
supersonic evt2-3 ship s-on
hboot 2.10.0001
radio-2.15.00.11.19

I have tried the latest (as of 12.19.10) unrEVOked to no avail. I'm sure some of you will read this thread and flame me for not reading some 300+ posts in a forum somewhere; the truth is that I have read them but the directions are too hard to follow by date: it's not clear what is out-dated where.
Is this configuration root-able by some means? I have rooted 3 Eris and 2 D1, 2 Intercept. The idea is not foreign to me. I am not, however, willing to stake such a wonderful piece of equipment on speculation. The rules seem to change every couple of hours. I would like full root to be able to use Cyanogenmod. At hboot,my sd image scan says not img available. Is that normal?
Any help will be more than appreciated; I will make sure your name is touted among the ranks here at phandroid!
Thanks in advance.

Is your EVO a 0004 build? If so CM6 has camera issues with those EVOs.

[Q] Meaning of Sense version numbers?

Just out of curiosity...
What does the version numbers in Sense mean?
Ex. 2.29.405.5
And Radio?
not sure about the last one, but the first 2 are release versions:
1. number is for major releases(1=ecleair 2=froyo)
2. number is for lesser releases lige bugfixes and so on
3. number is to show from where the update originates so to speak(405=htc, and every carrier have their own number here)
That's about right, except the first number. I don't think it's linked to the Android version as the Legend FroYo update starts 3.x.x.x
Thanks guys
What about the radio? GPS, Camera. etc?
Would love to gather a full list with the meaning of the numbers...
Could not find anything by searching...
Radio is just like the drivers between Android and the hardware. All stock RUUs come with a radio file which is what HTC link the hardware to
The version numbers are random and increase with each release.
GPS, Camera - no idea what you mean. There aren't version numbers so don't worry

I`ve read in the Hermes forum that f.ex .11 (or .01) means that GPS is enabled
If ypu want to know the brandong then I know 3.. 405 generic htc, 161 vodafone branded, 711 three3 branded
Hope this helps!

The Desire has GPS on it, you just turn it on. There's no version numbers involved
"The Desire has GPS on it" -
Ok, so only the Sense version numbers means something, and all the numbers and dots in radio dont mean anything, it just increases randomly after an upgrade...?
Ex. my Radio: 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27
Your Radio: 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17
It does not represent anything
No, it doesn't. It's just a version number. They mean nothing
Don't worry about it!
Damn, OK, I give in

Help with Android version/problem update on "HTC Test" one m8 please

Hi all,
Please forgive any noob errors!
So, i've enjoyed my HTC One m8 for a few years.
I admit i got it eBay (fleaBay!!) from what turns out to be a tester. Hence the "test phone/device" status.
Unbeknown to me, this would appear to have meant that my Android OS has not been updating at all over my ownership.
Not a huge problem until i developed exactly this problem:

and set about looking into fixing things,

I dont know if being able to update Android would help with above problem, but im sure it'd be a good start.
Installed was
HTC SSD Test Tool App, Ver 5.2.14.6 - anything i can do with this?!
PVS Info App, Ver 2.3
RxD Test QMI App, Ver 1.12
Any advice as to how i can solve either or both of the issues of the white dot/cursor issue - tried all suggested int he other thread, and Android update unlocking would be gratefully received!
Cheers
Dave

The GPS issue and Google Maps problem seems to be a common issue with our device. I experienced it on lineage os and fixed it by flashing the rom linked below. Also, it appears that your bootloader is locked. That needs to be addressed first.

Also, on googling "HTC test" you may want to investigate that further. There may be an XDA thread related to it as well. It is definitely nothing I am familiar with.

Thanks for the reply AR.
Its looking increasingly like the only way to get anywhere with this might be to unlock. Do you think this would enable updating, or would it then be a question of manually updating?
I'm just a little reluctant becuase i dont want to end up bricking my phone. But i guess it's getting to the point where its becoming increasingly frustrating it might be time to upgrade if nothing else can be done.
As far as the "HTC Test" thing goes there are a few other threads on here and elsewhere, but none with a resolution. Looks like mostly people have been in a position to hand them back and ask for a legit device. Dangers of eBay!
