Rooted using R6, froyo 2.2 update

Hello all,
Firstly sorry if this has been asked and answered already.
I rooted using modaco r6 method a couple a months back to go from T-mobile to generic HTC ROM.
I have checked to see if the HTC update for 2.2 is coming but it isn't.
Just wondering if this is because I haven't updated a previous update, since my root to generic ROM I have been getting the option to download a 27MB update (I don't have my phone with me so can't check the exact version).
Do I need to apply all previous updates to get 2.2 or can I just update to 2.2
Hope what I am asking is making sense.
Thanks

you need to be on the latest version in order to download froyo 2.2

Thanks for the reply. Thought that might have been the case. As I'm not able to currently set up wifi connection on phone, is it possible to download all the updates onto my pc and update manually.

[Q] 1.83.415.4 No update to gingerbread yet?

Hi, need some help as im only new to this. My DHD is on Android 2.2 with a weird software version very few other people have which is 1.83.415.4.
Heres the questions,
Will i need to downgrade to 1.32 in order to use the 2.3 ruu's available on the forums
or
Can i simply use the available ruu to upgrade my phone to 2.3 with out having to downgrade first?
Any help would be great.
ps. I have not recieved the 2.3 ota yet. have checked every day through the settings, have also done the whole manual check in as well *#*#2432546#*#*

hi boy!!!
I estimate that you have specifically android 2.2.1...right?
i hope that your software version is adapted for your carrier.... and is not a WEE ruu... its normal... my DHD by default was been 1.33
u can try via htc sync and click in upgrade button and pray for it to work....
i know that some people was update succesfully his DHD with it...
or try to do it with the XDA style, lol.....(because for downgrade it directly from a official ru downloaded it´s impossible)
1-downgrading...(necessary)
2-rooting...(necessary)
3-install rom manager & CWM recovery (necessary)
4-eng-soff
5-radio s-off
6-cid-111111 (super-cid)
here there is information about it:

If your phone is unlocked and running a stock rom then you can use the RUU to upgrade.

[Q] shortfuse gingerbreak SE ARC 2.3.3?

i canot get my arc rooted after the update
when we can get the gingerbreak
tried all versions with a formatted sd no luck
how can i root my ARC without unlocking the bootloader

i also tried the one click root last version could not root my device

Gingerbreak doesnt work on the 2.3.3, nor is it ever likely to (this isnt exactly news).
Fortunately there is a way of getting root on 2.3.3 with a locked bootloader. There is an entire thread on these very forums: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1115542

[Q] pls. help!how to downgrade from 2.2.3 to froyo?

as i have a problem to ota update to 2.2.5 from 2.2.3 i think i have to downgrade to froyo and then to try update to 2.2.5.when i bought the phone i got message for some small ota update then after couple of days i got message for 2.2.5 update but my phone says that i cannot update because i have unofficial soft inside?!the phone is almost new,never been rooted on so

I dont think you can downgrade and I dont think this is an option you want to pursue.
Maybe you can unlock the phone and wipe it and flash an official 2.3.5 RUU.
However you dont sound like you are too interested in learning too much due to your lack of research in xda (not a bad thing, some people just arent) so if the phone is almost new you could perhaps take it back and get the shop to sort it out.

Froyo? 2.2.3?
You mean 2.3.5 and 2.3.3

you need to be s-off for it to work, from what I tried.
Sent from my Desire HD using xda premium

You may be right about s-off, i think its all gonna depend on versions of radio and hboot etc included in the ruu. Maybe the OP can extract the system image from the ruu and flash just that but its all gonna need some research by the OP I think.

[Q] HTC Desire Z will not update to 2.3.3

Hello,
After my first HTC Desire Z broke i got a new one (second hand) yesterday. The phone was not used for a long time and still was running Android 2.2, for some reason i do not get the over-the-air update to 2.3.3 it simply tells me there are no updates available. After browsing some forums i see many links to htcdev.com where the update should be available for download... well it is not there anymore..
Has/had anyone the same problem and does anyone know how i can get my phone to Android 2.3.3?
Thanks in advance!

Current versions:
Android 2.2
Build: 1.34.405.5

I think it's better to root the phone, not update, and u don't have to downgrade for rooting. Think about root instead

Thanks for your quick reply, i thought about rooting the phone but i'd rather have it with the stock firmware. I'm affraid i might break it somehow.
So my original question still stands
