[Q] 2.1-update1 to 2.2 Generic without root?

Hi,
I'm really sorry to start a new thread, but I really need confirmation on what is the correct path to take.
My Desire this week received the vodafone branding update.
Details:
hboot 0.80
2.1-update1
Kernal
2.6.29-dd1a7713
Software Number 1.24.161.3
What is the correct thread to follow with the above details to install the unmodified htc 2.2 release (without root)?
Thanks

I'm in a similar boat.
I have a T-Mobile branded Desire (8181).
Running 2.1-update1, Kernel 2.6.29-3cb3dfbf, Build number: 1.15.110.11 CL155070
I just want to update to FroYo. To many guides to choose from.....

I would like to know the answer as well

How do I upgrade this phone ? :

Desire bought from 02. Seems to be unlocked, but does have the 02 startup screen and scenes.
Details :
firmware:
2.1-update1
baseband version:
32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2
kernel version:
2.26.29-c8d11160
[email protected] #1
Build number:
1.20.207.3.CL171460 release-keys
software number:
1.20.207.3
browser version:
webkit 3.1
How do I take this to 2.2 ? Do I wait for 02 ?
If I have to root, will I always have to use a specific way to update in the future ?
Thanks

I'm want to know this aswel ive been waiting for the o2 update but it still aint here, how hard is it to add 1 screen to the 2.2 froyo and send it out.

Could some one advise if this is the correct way to debrand and upgrade my desire..

You need 2 things for a quick route to FroYo on your Desire:
1. A Goldcard (check the Dev forum for instructions)
2. The RUU file to run to update you to FroYo
If you can't find the RUU file you can get the 1.21 generic one and then get the OTA upgrade to 2.2
EDIT: It seems shipped-roms has been suspended so the host to the RUU files has been taken down. You'll need someone to rehost them (of Google them)
EDIT: This should work...

Bare in mind that doing what I suggested will give you a completely stock - and unrootable - Desire so only do it if you want to keep your phone stock

Thanks.
rooting isn't important to me.. but...
If I wait for O2 to upgrade to 2.2 would that allow rooting ?
Does this way stop it totally or is the default stock rom that could be rooted when someone sorts it ?

Nothing there on screen while swithcing on desire

Hi,
I downgraded my HTS desire to ROM version 1.21.405.2 with the help of:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768256
I successfully downgraded to 1.21.405.2 but then i want to come back on INDIA_ASIA rom. For this i flashed rom:
RUU_Bravo_hTC_Asia_India_1.21.720.4_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_127705_signed
This is it... it first locked on the HTC screen and then i pulled out the battery. When i tried to restart the device i was having nothing on my screen. Only a black screen is there now, when i switch it on i feel the vibration but nothing on screen.
Help me out of this i was just looking to get on my custom ROM but now i am without my desire.... :-(

most definetily you have an SLCD screen. search the forum how to unbrick slcd Desire.

Hi mariosraptor ,
Thanx for your reply.. but i again did the same procedure of downgrading to 2.1 and now my desire is running fine Can u please guide me that which will be the best official ROM that i can use on my desire so that i am not bricked again and can use it for warranty too... I purchased it from India and also when the updates were available for my new phone it was coming with HTC_ASIA_INDIA...
Current ROM:
Firmware version: 2.1-update1
Baseband version: 32.41.00.32U_4.08.00.09
Kernel version: 2.6.29-0cb9f166 [email protected] #1
build number: 1.21.405.2 CL174215 release-keys
software number: 1.21.405.2
browser version: Webkit 3.1
Thanx in advance..

There isn't one

Can u explain???

Explain what?? The RUU you're after doesn't exist so the only way you'll get it working is to:
1. Flash the older AMOLED-only RUU
2. Find the thread on here telling you what to do when you can't see the screen to flash the OTA update manually and hope it works
Otherwise you'll have to stay on the WWE ROM until an RUU for your region is released

As for rooting that is pretty easy here is a link to the Ace Hack Kit, read the instructions several times and you should have no problems. They have an IRC channel if you have any questions rooting.
