With so many wonderful ROM around, it is just hard to pick...
However, I have one question....
Which firmware BESIDES Chinese 2.21 is the "OFFICIAL" firmware?
Well, there is no official ROM
Anyway, you can also try the new Finnland ROM. It has a higher build number (145).

I notice only China has official released firmware sbf, but rest are from "leak" firmware right?
Does that mean, "officially" only China got 2.2?
From the bugs that I read about in several forums and threads, I'd rather call it an open beta, than an official release
But you're right. There is no other official release, yet.
tks for your answer...
I was hoping.....
official upgrade Schedule
supportforums.motorola.com/community/manager/softwareupgrades
The official schedule shows no DEFY for the US at all, but there was a Tmo US leak a little while back so it seems that it is being worked on.
All the roms around are official since the bootloader is locked so all these rom's are official...the fastest one is jboogie's uk blurless rom...its quite fast. I scored 1337 in quadrant at 1000 mhz

Has anyone reported the same problems with their flash LED while using the Finnland ROM as the Chinese ROM?

Yea, blur isn't that bad. There's no exact date, but it won't be long.. hopefully.
There is oficial 2.2 other than chinese, brazilian Claro carrier have 2.2 defy, never tried but heard it doesnt have google apps, scary
Anyways, Claro has exclusivity on defy here, but somehow TIM also has defy for sale with 2.1 (clearly obtained throug Claro) but the point is, how is it going to work out for TIM users if motorola "thinks" only Claro is selling defy here, are we gona use Claro update? are we gona be left out? hehe pretty messy.

Same here...nothing.... anyone? anyone? Bueller?

Strange normally updates are announced (or leaked ) I'm on the vodafone network to, but got it from a store called belcompany, and you?
Nothing for me either...
do you need to have 3G coverage? I tried enabling wifi and attempted check for system update and got nothing..I am on Voda UK with an unlocked phone..hmm
I read on another forum that the updates get staggered so not to worry if yours shows up to date. Also on another forum it says facebook bug is fixed and the data connection issues is also fixed that effected many people.
Mine updated yesterday but I had to check manually for it.
Seems to be an vodafone branded update only, on tweakers.net only people with branded phones had the update.
Got it the other day, posted a link in the generic ROMs thread if anyone wants it

I got my Desire from Vodafone. If you got yours from Belcompany, you have an unbranded Desire which means that you won't get this OTA-update. This OTA-update will only be available for Vodafone-branded Desires.

Fun to see that you live in Weert, my birth town.
I'm still not sure whether I will update my Desire ... still waiting for someone to clarify whether this update will ruin my rooting possibilities.
i installed it somedays ago. i noticed that my battery is drainning faster... but i got more free ram and memory, also the sound volume is higher!
i had to check manually for the update
Anybody who updated their phone OTA, please post the ROM!!
Specifically interested in some config files.
Ill wait for the ruu

so they wont allow users who opt out of a data plan and or dont have wifi to update?
RUUs are leaked and shouldn't normally be open to the public. If they were they'd be on HTCs website (like with their WinMo RUUs)
Guess you cant always trust a telus rep, they told me that the update would be downbloadable from a pc if i didnt have internet access for my desire. (ive been prodding tech support for 2 weeks now trying to get info on when the update is)
I don't see the point in posting the ROM. What would be needed in it that we don't already have or use? Plus if I wanted to do the update that would mean downgrading back to 2.1 and then upgrading.

He said he is interested in some config files, no idea what for. Can you even post just a rom from your phone? Wouldn't you need to extract it from the RUU?
The RUU would be nice though, I'd like to know what radio Telus think we should be running. Obviously it would also be good to flash the phone in a way that masks the modifications made if we need to return it.

Yeah. Good point.
Got bored, poked around. I have a feeling telus will offer the RUU on HTC.com just like other desire providers.
Well it looks like they pulled the update for now....

HTC Desire - Froyo 2.2 on Telus is here !!
I just downloaded it OTA.
It is installing as I type this.
Oh, this is so exciting !
Yossi
I got mine downloaded and installed yesterday. All is running smooth
I am on Fido and I got an update notification on my HTC Desire (I had 3G on, and Wifi off). I'm downloading the update (OTA_Bravo_Froyo_TELUS_WWE_2.25.661.2-1.29.661.1_R_release_Pf7sjzjrgcmpsve12.zip) as I'm typing this...it's a 90.5MB download...so I switched to Wifi before proceeding with download.
I'll update later how it goes.
I saw this by chance while browsing though the HTC.com, however I could't receive any update on my phone. new firmware 3.15.707.3. It seems to be removed from the website after i refresh.
Update: After searching though the forum it seems that 3.15.707.3 were means for HTC Legend, meaning HTC without fail made a mistake again.
Update: screenshot
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
Do you mean this update:
Update – HTC Legend Android 2.2 Firmware Over The Air (FOTA) update
You can now download the latest software update for new features and improved performance. It won’t delete any of your content and we’d recommend using a Wi-Fi connection as this is a large update. If not, standard data connection charges may apply. Any questions? Contact us via www.htc.com. After installing the update, you can confirm a successful update by confirming the Firmware version (From the Home Screen go to MENU> Settings> About Phone>Software number). The new Software number will be 3.15.405.3. Update Information: Android 2.2 and HTC Sense update Note: We still recommend you back up your all personal data first.
I saw the update today too. But I didn't install it. I'm rooted running a custom ROM.
But the update is way to small to be a completely new ROM. It's only twenty-something MBs. Definitely not the new Sense or Gingerbread. At the end of the update description, it mentions that it's an update to the Market app.
Yup its for legend, however when HTC upload it, they wrote its for desire... uploading the screenshot now.
Says HTC Legend on the UK site

It's just their build number, not all HTC phones follow the same build sequences
I assume that the Legend HTC Sense update isnt to the new sense with htcsense.com abilities...?
would be interesting if it was though

Thanks for confirming - but still a shame!

It's already on the Desire, 2.29.405.2
The Legend just has different build numbers
Been using this ROM since yesterday(received via OTA). Rooted, removed bloats, changed carrier boot animation and been tweaking stuffs, and it's pretty much stable and fast. The only problem I encountered so far was the constant drop of wi-fi connection but managed to fix it by changing my router settings to TKIP encryption. Still observing if the problem is gone for good.

System version: Version.34.145.12.MB525.Optus.en.AU
Android version: 2.2.2

Where to download this rom? Do I can flash it, if I have now http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1037076 , flashed without SBF fix etc..?
Do you have 720p filming option?
You can flash this if you're on another froyo rom. I'm using the latest leaked(3.4.2-177_Nordic) prior to this rom.
Still no HD(720p) recording.
Tested no more wifi disconnect, TKIP encryption solved the issue.
Will share the nandroid tomorrow. Good night.
Here you go, for those who want to try Official Froyo 2.2.2.
Download link: http://www.multiupload.com/GBN7ZZL8J2
If you're another froyo rom such as nordic you can restore the nandroid directly(via custom recovery; extract the zip file and transfer to sdcard)
All carrier bloats removed including:
Optus App Store, Games, Navi, Music, TV
Revert to stock bootanimation without the carrier logo.
Removed Optus bookmarks and homepage.
Added cyanogen APN list(since the rom defaults to Optus APN which is unusable in other country)
when do you guys think the US version will be released?
Froyo 2.2 ? Gingerbread
Will this work on the Optus MyTab ZTE V9 and the telstra touch tablet ?
Is there an " official site" to get it from ?
WHo what is OTA ?
Nice! Looks like official 2.2's are starting to roll out, and it's rootable
I wonder when they're gonna push out the UK one for unlocked handsets without a provider
@JakDac OTA stands for over the air, this is the system that most carriers use to push updates to their customers' handsets.
No, this ROM will not work for either of the tablets, as the ROM is for the Defy and will only work with a defy.

Same here mate, i am a little confused by that as i thought it would have been the easiest version to roll out and i mean for all regions not just the UK.
Is it possible to downgrade from this version?
I have a Virgin card - update go?
whether the updates are assigned to the IMEI?

Issues since upgrading....
Hi folks,
Apologies in advance for any dumb questions.
Got my 1st Adroid phone, the Defy last Thursday. Spent the weekend getting it up and running and everything was perfect -fast, responsive, no wi-fi issues... all good.
Applied the suggested system update (34.145.12.MB525.Optus.en.AU) yesterday morning and since then have been having probs with very slow GUI response - even worse if wi-fi is activated....
Any suggestions?
I don't mind rolling back - but don't actually know how.... any links/pointers?
Cheers,
Chris

Not sure how to make it faster, i used that rom for a while and didn't have any problems, maybe try a factory reset.
if you want to downgrade to your stock rom there is a guide on this site forum.lowyat.net/topic/1557573 under Fixed SBF for Downgrade-ability from Undowngrade-ability but you need a back up a 2.51 rom and once you get it to a 2.51 rom then you can restore it back to your stock rom.
Hi All , well to all those Defy owners who are still googling for a new rom or still confused between ROM's
Kindly post your requirement. and based on my experience i ll help to choose a right and stable ROM.
It may be anything. which feature you want?
or anything you uses most.
hit thanks if i have helped you.
