I wanted to create a change log for the latest OTA update 2.10.405.2. So here it is. Just bare in mind that this is not official change log, but just bits and pieces I found in the forum.
Changelog:
1. New battery algorithm. No more drops from full charged during charging to 90-91% after unplugged. (maybe calibrating of the battery, because different people sees different results - ohyeahar, herezor, chichoko)
2. New version of Google Maps 4.4.0
3. New app Places (it existed before if you had Google Maps updated to version 4.4 via Market - FreudsCAT)
4. New microphone button in the keyboard (only in english keyboard). To fix the issue with the low resolution of the button, just remove all languages except English and the button will have the same quality as the other ones (EddyOS)
5. No vibrate on shutdown
6. Save attachments from GMail app (Only Word and Excel. No support for zip or pdf)
7. New version of Quickoffice 3.2.60 (FreudsCAT)
8. Peep 2.0 fixed authentication with twitter (FreudsCAT)
9. Better video quality while capturing video (hamdir, aindow)
10. New/improved notifications of unsent messages, tweets, Facebook alerts, etc. (aindow, andQlimax)
11. Flash Player v 10.1.92.10 can be downloaded from the market. (hija31 vs. people are reporting that it was in the market before - Lothaen)
12. The image blur bug in the gallery is gone. (hamdir vs. fblasot)
Not confirmed, but people reporting those:
101. Better sound quality while shooting video.
Please feel free to comment those changes and add new ones.
Places was in 2.09.405.8 (or was on mine)

I'm not 100% sure but I had to install "Maps [brut]" to have "Places [brut]" on my list. As far as I remember I did not had "Places". But maybe I'm wrong. Can somebody else comment on this.

"Places" was definitely there before.
Btw, I'm not sure how anyone can be sure there's a new battery algorithm. It can just be an issue with your battery calibration.

You are correct about the "new battery algorithm". I've seen threads with a lot of people having the same issue as me, but in the same time other people didn't have it.
It appears when I had OTA update 1.15.405.4. Before that I had very accurate battery percentage. The issues stayed after the Froyo update. But now with this OTA it's gone.
- I didn' had "Places" before (Desire - Unbranded - Unrooted, official HTC 2.2 rom - updated OTA with latest "patch")
- After yesterday update, this morning i had the battery drop from 100% to aprox 90%, so the new algorithm it's not there (from the update - 2.2 OTA till yesterday the battery slowly recalibrate itself and last 2 weeks i had no quick drops in btry. percentage )
- i don't know about "News and weather" if it is new or not because i didn't saw it before ......

- places - as far as I remember I did not had it too. But as you can see other people are saying it was there.
- about battery algorithm - so the issue with drops is still there.
- "News and weather" widget is an Android widget (not HTC) which was there before this update.
As HTC says about the update:
1.Android OS update patch
2.Enhanced multi inbox Gmail support
3.Improved Russia keyboard layout
also
- new version Quickoffice 3.2.60 - HTC
- peep 2.0 fixed authentication with twitter
Places was there on my SIM-free Desire running 2.09.405.8 RUU (I never do OTA updates) - I'm guessing other people never noticed it

Thanks for the latest 2 new changes you've provided.
About the official changes - I think is better to list the exact changes, not general ones like "Android OS update patch", because they are kinda misleading.

I can confirm improvements in my Desire´s battery (recalibrated itself as well), as this morning from 7:00 until 12:30 it dropped 2 % only (under normal load)... I also noticed a drastic reduction in the temperature of the battery (before, it was 34ºC with system on and Wi-Fi enabled, and now 26.2ºC in same conditions). I use Battery Left widget from Android Market to measure this.
So, seeing that more and more people are finding their Desi´s battery lasts longer, I assume that one of the main changes in this update is the new energy management algorithm, not included in initial Froyo release and so much expected...
Notifications for unsent messages, tweets, Facebook alerts etc are now in colour on the top notification bar.
There's now a black background as an option on the phone without having to download one. Have a look in the wallpapers menu.

I do not have a black wallpaper. I do have an very dark black grid wallpaper, but that's there from day one.

When a text doesn't send due to bad signal it shows an envelope with a red triangle next to it. The Facebook notification shows a Facebook logo with a green circle with the number of received messages.
The wallpaper I am on about is black, but has a load of very small white dots.

Great idea for a thread! I always like to read these "changelog threads" before update since I had a few bad experiences when being impatient
Can someone with installed update confirm if some of these bugs / glitches that existed on first official 2.2 OTA update:
- Missing right border for dialer buttons (see attachment)
- Privacy missing in settings (I know that you can find it via search but can it now be seen "normally"?)
- Problem with Sense widgets and transferring apps to SD (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=744581)
Fix for this last issue is extremely important to me so if you do not want to read the entire thread for the link above here is summary:
I conducted these tests on two different Desires using three different applications downloaded directly from Market, that natively support moving to SD card. Earlier I
Applications are (but can be ANY other app that supports moving to SD card): Barcode Scanner (ZXing team, version 3.4), Rock Player (Holly Lee, version 1.0.31), Slide Puzzle (SporkSoft, version 1.6.7)
1) As soon as I move any of these apps to SD card, widgets on home screens reload data (like after system boot). During this "reload" weather widget stays blank as shown in picture I am sending you: "blank_wether_widget.jpg"
2) The same thing happens with widgets when I connect the phone to PC via USB in DISK DRIVE mode
3) The same thing also happens when I disconnect a phone from PC (if it was connected in DISK DRIVE mode).
5) HARD RESET doesn't help, regarding this issue!
Hey, what happened??
Two days ago I checked manually for the update and I found it but I did not install it because it was not clear about rooting procedure for new boot loader.
Now I would like to upgrade but if I check manually it tells me no update available and the software version is still the old one!!
Any idea??
I didn't have "places" on previous Froyo OTA now i do.
i shot and played back a 720p video, seems smoother then before. I found a hint about a change in video playback, i had videos on my SD made to play on ps3 H264 encoded at 15MB bitrate, used to play normal but stutter bad now after the OTA they show black or artifacts at playback.
the image blur bug in the gallery is gone, it used to happen when u rotate the screen, sharpness was lost. However weird random thumbnails artifacts bug is still there.
new speaker icon on keyboard is blurred doesn't look screen native.
mnaeh all the bugs u mentioned are still there even the privacy menu still missing.
i appreciate updating peep, maps and quickoffice and certainly love the new speaker button. but not updating flash in this OTA is kinda of stupid.
I love HTC and my desire much more then my old iphone, but damn these tiny yet persistent bugs makes their products feel unpolished. I wish HTC stops releasing hundreds of different branded and network exclusives and instead focus on polishing their awesome products. example the stupid unable to edit notes widget.

What does Places do? I'm guessing it's something like Footprints??
I just cant seem to notice the battery improvement.. today i unplugged the phone and had it drop at 80% after about 10 minutes.. ill troubleshoot it a bit more these daya and report back.. fingers crossed..

I have run into a couple bugs across a multitude of ROMs on the new JB 4.2.1 and thought I'd make a list for everyone else to add since they're not getting fixed.
1. When you click the option to text a recent call, it deletes the area code.
2. Upon trying to edit the area code it gets, well, annoying (not really a bug I suppose)
3. Pressing the phone icon on someone's card within an app does nothing.
Any more? Is this thread useless? Please let me know.
Anyone else receive the OTA update N910AUCU1BNK3 that's been pushing to devices in the last few days?
From what I've read its miscellaneous improvements and the inclusion of more preloaded apps, along with HD voice.
Anyone notice any changes? More specifically the "miscellaneous improvements"?
Wondering what else is going on being this is a new phone with little to no update history thus far
Ive noticed:
Quicker + smoother launching of the recent apps after pressing the soft button
New menu for the "HD Voice" seen below
Updated multi-window support

Already a huge thread on this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-att/general/att-ota-downloading-t2960247
When I press the recent apps button, it doesn't always refresh the list of apps that I just used. For example, the apps appear in the last order that I saw them in, and a newly launched app doesn't appear in the list at all. My workaround solution is to press the recent apps button, click on the home screen, then press recent apps again to refresh the list. I love my OP3, but this can get pretty annoying. Any ideas on how to fix this? If not, perhaps you can recommend a good multitasking app?
This is a bug that a number of people across various forums have been reporting only recently so presumably it is a bug OP have introduced in one of the latest updates.

Thanks for your response. I've only found two others who have the same problem on the OP3, and one of them said it existed for them since an older update. I wonder if installing a custom rom would fix this type of issue.

I have been seeing this since the latest update. I use it constantly so noticed.
Hi
Hi
I updated to android 10 via choose update package about 2 weeks ago. Mine is India ROM.
I am having one issue. I am unable to take scrolling screenshot. After taking the screenshot and clicking on scroll neither does it scroll nor do any options come up.
I am not sure problem was there before the upgrade or not because I seldom used long/scroll screenshots. But i need to use this feature now.
Can anyone tell me how to fix this??
You should report the bug via the feedback app. You can use the app "LongShot for long screenshot" until the bug gets fixed. I still haven't received the upgrade and I want to know if the oversharpening bug in videos is fixed on Android 10, do you have any idea?
