Hello everyone!
I've been for hours and hours searching this forum for a solution to my problem and i've found lot's of information but now I don't really know what's the best way to do it. I'm very newbie on this. Here is my situation:
I have just bough and A8181 HTC Desire Asian Version with this Specs:
-In the box it doesn't say AMOLED, so I think my desire has a SLCD screen
-The HBOOT version is 0.83
-Android 2.1 update1
-My Software number is 1.19.707.7
-My keyboard always have an annoying buttom to insert asian letters (Obviously that's because the Desire is an Asian Version)
What I want to know is just the best (and easiest) way to have an Official European FroYo 2.2 ROM instead of this asian 2.1.
So, how do I do this? UnrEVOked? Goldcard? What's the best ROM for my case?
Thank you all very much!
I just checked system update in my Desire Asian version, update to froyo is available now. I'm still downloading. Maybe it's Official Asian Froyo 2.2 ROM
Nice Information.
Jangunawan,
My Desire haven't received the update yet.
Have anyone with stock Asian Desire and software 1.19.707.7 received it?
Even with the update I still want very much to know how to flash my desire with an Eurpean ROM. So, do someone know the answer to my first post?
Thank you all
Hi there XDA,
I recently sent my phone off to Orange as it stopped working. They sent a new HTC Desire HD out, however it has the Orange logo on the back, and my previous one from them didn't, as it was one of the first from them and they didn't put their software on it. I would like to do a few quick checks to see if my new phone is Branded, or running the latest HTC software. This is what I am seeing in my Software Information Screen.
Android Version
2.2
Baseband Version
12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.26_M
Kernel Version

Browser Version

It seems to be non-branded, and it is running the latest HTC software. There should be an OTA soon, but that will disable rooting. If you want to root & S-OFF, do it now. Radio S-OFF will survive the OTA, so if you want to give yourself a free ticket back to the world of rooting, I suggest you get it.

Thanks, that's good news then, would you be able to hook me up with a link directing me to a tutorial on how to do these things? I swapped phones with my Dad, and this is the second day i've had the Desire HD, if it was on the Desire it'd be no problem, but im not too good with the HD, once again thanks man.
Hi jaaystott.
The person who replied you just now (jkoljo) creates this Radio S-OFF tool. follow his guide and you will be fine.

dont worry about 2.2.1 bro. version 2.3.3 will b released officially soon
2.2.1 had been removed some days after release, because it contained some bugs.
as linkslovesandroid said, wait for 2.3.x Update...i guess its gonna be awesome

Hey, as you'll all notice I'm a complete newbie to all this and could do with some help.
I have a branded DHD (t-mobile UK) and would like to know of a beginner's guide on how to get Sense 3.0 and Android 2.3.5? As I'm still waiting on T-Mobile releasing their version of the updates and tbh I've waited far too long now as my friends who are on other networks had their OTA update months ago. My warranty has ran out (i think) so I've decided after reading a few threads on here that rooting is for me.
Also, could someone confirm my software is branded, if you can...
Android 2.3.3
Sense 3.0
Baseband 12.54.60.25U_26.09.04.11_M2
Build No. 2.50.110.5.CL123205
Software No. 2.50.110.5
Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks in advance

Forgot to include kernel ver: 2.6.35.10-gd2564fb [email protected]#1
Best thing to do is to unbrand your phone and then update it to 2.3.5. Done that with my Branded DHD on ThreeUK, worked like a charm. Ill post on how to unbrand soon
