Hello
Ok so ive put update-oxygen-2.0-RC7-signed.zip back onto my mobile but now i remember why i removed it..it lacks many of the features i need i.e the original favourites contact widget.
Also which is even more disturbing is that when I went to phone my brother it kept on asking me which default sip client i wanted to use and didnt give me the option to use the standard Vodafone GSM network?
Where can I get the original Android HTC Desire UK ROM from? or better still does anyone know the best ROM for business usage or practicality usage?
Depends if you have a branded handset, what network you on?
Latest unbranded (2.29.405.5) RUU is here:

Latest Vodafone UK (2.33.161.2) RUU is here:
http://www.multiupload.com/K0FR1OK301
just flash leedoird's rom
The problem with not been able to phone people was resolved by un-installing CSipSimple SIP client. I am going to stick with the Oxygen ROM think it would be bit of a crime to go back to Android 2.2 now!

The build number is 2.73.771.73, so it's just a 1.5 ROM.

Yup. Go to a site like www.mediafire.com, and upload it there if you want.
I'm sure someone will root it for you if you post it up here.
thats a shame why release a 1.5 update when htc are SUPPOSED to release 2.1
Well, HTC would have to release it for stock, unbranded heroes before 3 could possible release it (HTC sends the final stock ROM to 3, who test it and add their own [cough]enhancements[/cough](aka. junk).
So, until we see a stock (ie. retail, unbranded) Hero RUU up there, I don't think there is much chance of 2.1
what is H3G?? Why cant I download it? It says it doesnt support my device. Well I have hero, what the hell
it`s for the 3 network phones h3g stands for hutchinson 3g
now added link for everyone enjoy
Hey, so will installing this on my t-mobile Hero make a difference? will it be better? will it even work?
I'm currently running the 2.73.405.5 build
only for rooted etc phones

H3G is Hutchison 3G - the full name of the UK mobile operator 3.

might be, but this is a manufacturer rom for exactly this device...
as per subject
My Desire was bought from O2, so has it's firmware.
I'm moving abroad next month, will I still get an update to 2.2 ?
I won't be using O2.. will that stop me ?
Would I be better flashing it with a generic rom ?
Thanks

It's about choice...
Why you need flashing? if you Desire daily usage for Phone, SMS, Chat and Check Email and little bit Browse the net.. I think wait until official release for Desire much better than Rooted/Flashing your phone
Thanks for the reply.
I'd prefer not to flash or root it if I can help it.
The question really is will a UK O2 Desire automatically upgrade to 2.2 if used in New Zealand, with Vodafone ?
Thanks
Probably not. My understanding is that receiving updates is dependent on your current version. I'm on Meteor in Ireland, for example, but I won't receive any specific Meteor updates, because I have the generic HTC firmware.
So if you're on a kiwi network, with the O2 software, you'll get neither the HTC update nor any update your new network rolls out.
So either debrand now and get the HTC update whenever it's released, or wait until it comes out and flash the 2.2 rom directly.
One other thing you could do is take it to Vodafone in New Zealand and ask them to flash their own software on it. Since you're a new customer, they'll most likely oblige.
But that's if they even stock the Desire, btw. If they don't you'll have to do it yourself.
One thing to keep in mind re:carrier specific firmwares is that it may take an awfully long time for upgrades to trickle down. You could be looking at an additional month or more between HTC releasing it and your carrier releasing it.
And even when they do, they might disable certain features (wi-fi tethering, for example, isn't too popular with mobile operators)
Thanks
that is what I'd thought..
I suppose the only other thing would be if O2 released it for download, then I could manually install it !!
Are there still issues with wifi and the generic rom ?
Yeah, that's another way. Bookmark this link:
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bravo/
The only issues were with people who people who debranded their phone and flashed to the generic rom. But for anybody else, there's no issues whatsoever.
Thanks
If I change the ROM is there any risk ? I'm not bothered about root, but would like to have the option of 2.2 when I'm not in the UK.
can you point me to a firmware flashing guide ?
Thanks again.
Well this is the latest (generic) rom update:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=684259
Very easy to install. Just download the .exe to your PC, and open it while your phone is plugged in. The installer will walk you through.
I don't know if it's that simple for branded phones though. You might have to debrand first... I honestly couldn't say. You might ask in that thread and list your FW number. Maybe somebody else will know.
You're sure it's a branded phone, yes? There's no .405 in the version number?
My firmware is : 1.20.207.3 CL171460 release-keys
I'll ask in the other forum.
Thanks
Hey guys,
Just been looking around these forums lately and you all seem like the intelligent bunch so i was hoping you might be able to help me out here.
I Recentlly brought a desire HD from an online website (mobicity) and its a great phone/device, but it has come from singapore. its unlocked/unbranded but it feels like its not an australian/WWE stock rom. I am completely new to the world of android with this phone being my entry class but im pretty clued on when it comes to tech stuff (I've flashed other devices before, PSP's, iPhones) and after a bit of research, seems getting a "stock rom" is the way to go but i dont want a carrier branded one (telstra, 3, virgin) as im with a carrier that doesnt sell the HTC DHD, or I dont want a custom rom, I just want it to be a normal unbranded HTC thats as close to where im from.
When I select the languages I only get 3 choices - English[HK] and 2 chinese languages (not sure what they are!)
If it helps here is my software info:
Model: A9191
Android Version: 2.2.1
Baseband: 12.28g.60.140fU_26.05.05.27_M3
Build: 1.84.832.2 CL333804 Release-keys
Software number: 1.84.832.2
Browser Version: Webkit 3.1
Any help/Tips/Advice would be awesome guys!
thanks in advance!
Somewhere around here is an RUU for Oz and / or WWE version which should help you out.
Better still, go forth and "Root" *groan* about in the development forum.
I really really should apologise for that pun but I not going to...
Just a heads up, I've recently heard that the folks in Germany are getting their Gingerbread update, so I suspect the rest of the world is gonna get his pretty shortly. If you don't feel like waiting around then go on to the dev. section and check out the stock rom final build 2.36 that was recently released. You can flash it with out root access.
Good luck mate!
Software number: 1.84.832.2.. The 832 does indeed refer to a HK based ROM. Look for 405 in the software number for a stock WWE ROM. Example is 2.36.405.8 which I am currently running. (Gingerbread)
There's a few WWE ROMs here:

Hi Guys,
thanks for your help so far but when i Try to install another rom (older or newer) i get Customer error 131
with a bit of reseach seems i may have to get a "gold card"
so its more money for a micro SD unless theres a way around this error?
Also just been informed by my phone suppliers that stock roms are covered by warranty so im more relaxed about flashing now
thanks again

IMO, your supplier mean the stock rom for current device is refer to HK stock rom only. If your are from HK rom, then its should be HK rom only. If you flash others wwe stock rom, its mean you avoid your warranty. My meaning is, when you root your phone, you already avoid the warranty. In order to choose others stock rom to flash in your HK phone, you required your phone to be root first..
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I got mine imported from the UK (through clove.co.uk)
I'm with virgin mobile and have just kept the stock ROM it came with.
Just thought you should know there's some other people like you on here
hey guys
Well its still not working
Everytime ive tried to load up the WWE rom I get customer ID error 131
just curious, does it have to be a newer verison or can it be an older one too?
After speaking with the guy that sold me the phone he suggested the gold card method which didnt work either...am i stuck with this HK-rom?
[SOVLED]
So I Finally did it!
heres what i did:
Followed the Guide found here
THEN discovered my device was branded so i need to make a goldcard on MMC2 (been using mmc0 Prior)
Then Flashed via recovery mode to 1.32
then upgraded to 1.72!
the only think that worried me is that when i was 1.32 i couldnt do an update via the phone...was that a bug that was fixed later on?
just happy to have stock f/w on now, the phone seems quicker too!
thanks guys, for the help, and hope this will help anyone else with the same issue
if you went to all that trouble to flash your device, why don't you give customs a try?
I personally use CM7 with a Android Phone 7 skin.
If speed is your thing, the CM7 has overclocking options on it to make it more zippy, though its fast still plenty faster then with the stock roms. I've heard Android Revolution is even faster, but its running 2.2
Worse comes to worse, you can always restore back to your current rom.
lol due to warranty limitations i may jsut stick with the unbranded roms for now, or if my carrier (iiNet via optus) release a branded F/W ill go with that playing it safe works fine for me till i work out wha tthis phone can do for now

So I received my Arc S today in the UK, and it's a French model - I knew it'd be a European model of some sort when I ordered, so that's fine.
But even though I've set the language to English, I'm still finding a few things in French and it seems like my UK network can't detect what phone I have, and I'm unable to get a data connection.
Can someone tell me if it's possible to flash a generic stock or O2-UK stock rom to it please? I used to have a HTC Sensation and have experience rooting and custom rom'ing with that. My current build number is 4.0.2.A.0.42.
Do I root and flash the stock firmware from this page?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204302
So to build number 4.0.A.2.368, to be clear. Will that give me all the generic/UK stock options instead of French video services, Canal+ and Jeux Gameloft?! I really don't need a custom rom, in fact I want it to be as much like I've just bought it from a UK supply as possible and don't even need rooting or the bootloader unlocked at the end of it if that can be avoided.
Your help is much appreciated in advance!

Thanks! It doesn't seem to have a generic UK firmware - only Central Europe 1/2/3 without listing the difference - but I've emailed Wotanserver to see if they can advise.
Is their method safe, do you know?
Hi,
I want to remove the spaces when I dial a number. I originally had the stock rom with UVALH2 firmware which had it and thought if i flashed to XquiziT Rom it would no longer be a problem. I tried setting a different location and downloaded morelocale2 to no avail. Is their a stock theme with a newer up to date rom available that i could apply to fix this, as much as i appreciate the developers who create the awesome looking theme I just want a stocker that's up to date, rooted and can dial a telephone number without auto spacing?
It may not seem major but it's a real pain in the backside, Any ideas? Im in Australia but had my parents pick up the 4g t-mobile model from HK.
Thankyou.
i'm certain there is some dev out there that could hax something in 10 seconds that would fix this as I'd imagine it happens to other android users(had a similar issue with a friends hk based AT&T s2 model but could flash a Australian equivalent to it.
I'll be patient and pray
