DO NOT OTA update while you are rooted!
Download this, install and you have official FroYo
Thanks for the info as the phone is unlocked and rooted is it still on Orange?

Nope, you're stuffed until someone works out how to break in to the new HBoot, which may be soon, or may be never.
You should have read the forums first.
OK I have updated Radio ROM and Installed 2.2 all working great I love it. Use the guide/download links posted on the second thread thanks for that
To recap I had HTC Desire locked to Orange now unlocked and fully working with 2.2 update NOTE the first time I installed the 2.2 update the phone crashed at boot up had to reinstall it so be warned
These are new details after radio and 2.2 update
OLD DETAILS:
Firmware 2.1 update1
Build number 1.15.405.2 CL155070 release keys
Software number 1.15.405.4
Kernel Version 2.6.29-97da29ed
NEW DETAILS:
I'm running
Firmware 2.2
Build number 2.2 FRE91 43546 release keys
Software number 2.09.405.8
Kernel Version 2.6.32.15gf9c0527
Hope this helps other Orange users
hi guys please help me i am pulling my hair out, I have a htc desire from germany via a parrelell importer, i recently tried updating to froyo ota my phone is unbranded and not rooted, how ever now when i start it i get a message saying system failure force close/wait, i have made a gold card, and placed roms on etc but it doesnt seem to reconize them on sd card and says signature failure, also before that while in reocvery it comes up with e:cant open /cache/recovery/command,

I think you Desire is unbranded, can you use sim cards from different carriers?
If yes no goldcard is needed

[Q] Rooting a HTC Desire running Android 2.2 (on Orange if that's relevant)

Hello there! Well, I made the switch from WM to Android and am loving it. Now it's time for some tweaking though, and I wonder if I can root an Android phone (HTC desire specifically) which is running FroYo 2.2.
I downloaded unrevoked 3.1 and keep getting the 'failed to flash rom' error after the reboot. I have tried this on a Mac and on a PC running XP SP3, both with the same error. Does this mean it simply doesn't work on Froyo 2.2 or I'm doing something wrong?
Any help would be gratefully received!
Presuambly you have stock 2.2. From what I understand, this also upgrades hboot to 0.92, which cannot currently be rooted. To root, you must downgrade hboot back to 0.80. Try the link below, a guide on how to downgrade

Aha, cool. Thanks!. This brings me onto my next question; will I need to make a goldcard if my phone is unbranded?

Rooting Froyo 2.2

I just installed froyo 2.2 without root. I tried the uninstall techniques to downgrade but it didn't work, giving me a Main version error. Is there a way I can root froyo 2.2 directly?
My recovery seems abit glitchy and flashes the htc screen sometimes and fails to load at times

No, there's no method for 2.2 yet. Use the downgrade tool, it's floating around here.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
You have to downgrade your HBOOT version to 0.8x first. There are some post floating in this forum, you can have a look.

[Q] 2.3.3: Error failed to get root. Is your firmware too new ?

Hi,
On the new HTC desire developer update 2.3.3 when I execute unrevoked 3.32, I have this error message: "Error failed to get root. Is your firmware too new ?"
Do you have tested other tool with this update to root the HTC desire last update ?
Thanks
if you actually bothered to read any of the other 3 or 4 posts on EXACTLY the same topic you wouldn't have to post a new thread.
IT CANNOT BE ROOOTED AS OF YET.
so i do i hate HTC
yep, htc mess this up totaly, 2.3.3 with 1.9 cuz desire wont handle 2.1? they just have noob develop.team or they just dont want to put desire to higher level
at this point dont update to 2.3.3 with official RUU cuz it cannot be rooted
