So my problem is i am not getting any OTA the one i want is 2.3.5 sense 3 i have a htc desire hd whch was branded on t mobile uk i rooted it then downloaded a ruu from shipped roms which was WWE and also signed. Problem is im not getting to sense 3 which rolled out a couple of months ago but when i flashed the ruu i did get a ota which was related to navigation so my OTA. Does work problem is i am not getting the recent update from 2.3.3. I am aware that not all desire hd phones got the update and because u got the international stock rom mayne thats the problem the only solution i can think of is can someone give me the ruu for 2.3.5 sense 3.0 because it isnt avalible on shipped roms ir can someone give me the stock rom of 2.3.3 t moble uk which isnt on shipped roms.
You can try AAHK using revert to stock WWE. You should revert to unroot to get OTA to sense 3.

The wwe sense 3.0 is on shipped roms website. Its the last one listed.
Plus here's another link where I have it hosted.
marsdta.minus.com
You want the 3.12.405
You have to use RUU file on rooted DHD. OTA will not work, process stop with triangle when it find modyfied bootloader and can not pass.
RUU (same ROM but different ext) works perfect by USB

Hi Guys,
I recently rooted and put a custom froyo 2.2 rom onto my HTC Desire. In the process i must of lost the backup of the original rom that shipped with the phone. The phone was bought with Vodafone Ireland and the baseband is 32.41.00.32U_5.08.00.04 . Im not sure but the guide i used to update my phone advised updating the radio (which i think is the same as the baseband). What i want to do is to download an original 2.1 (or 2.2) Rom so i can update to froyo the offical way. Basically the rom i currently have is buggy and i wanted to upgrade/downgrade to 2.1. I dont know what i need to do with my radio version or what difference it makes.
So my questions are:
1. Can someone link me a place i can download original HTC Desire Rom 2.1 so i can restore my phone to normal and upgrade to 2.2 through offical OTA?
2. What difference does the radio make? Why do i need to update that when i install a rom?
Thanks
oh and also if i put the original rom on it does that undo the rooting? Basically i want a stable version of 2.2 that i will be able to recieve updates in the future through offical methods (OTA)
i need this too
Look in the development section, there you can find RUU's those are original roms.
If u get an original ruu and follow instructions to install Froyo will be available for its system update. This includes an updated radio.

Thanks, Does this get rid of rooting? and do i need to pick a RUU that has the same radio as mine?
this "Updates" your desire, making completely stock like, from what i know you have to choose what fits you phone, if it's Hboot .80 or that other one...
it will lock your recovery too...
hey sorry about all my noob questions but i tried the following page before
"HTC Desire > Desire Android Development > [ROM] Official HTC Desire RUU ROMS and OTA Update URL"
and any of the ones i tried dont seem to work. Is it someting to do with the fact that none of them are the same radio as mine?
Im guessing i should be trying the gsm ones. i tried to install some of the zips through rom manager from GSM HTC OTA Update URLs but they failed.
by "lock" do you mean that i will never be able to recover again and ya my hboot is .80
guys,
Can someone please help with this, im really stuck.
Thanks
Hi, everyone. I just received notification for upgrading my desire to Froyo.
But i have one query.At the time I bought Desire, I had used goldcard to install WWE ROM on my desire. I just want to ask that upgrading over the air to froyo wont create a problem in the device?
Sorry if the question is noobish. I am very new to android..
Thanks
Accepting this OTA update will lock your phone down. You will lose root and will have to jump through hoops to get it back.
If you are running a custom ROM or plan to at some point, ignore the update and turn off the check option.
Thanks fr the reply...
I have not rooted my desire. i just created the goldcard to be able to install the official HTC UK ROM as i had bought myfone frm singapore. Should I still wait?
And what can be the path to be be to get the froyo update?
Thanks
I had a Telstra branded phone which I did the same as you with except I rooted it before then deciding to install the WWE 2.1 Rom. Following this I updated to froyo (manually because of wasn't offering through ota update) and now have a perfectly working official 2.2 desire.
I'm not sure about rooting once on 2.2 but you don't sound like you want to root anyway so I say go for it.

Hi everyone, this is my first post, I bought my friends desire z, and found out that it has eng hboot and s-off.
So I flashed the official 1.34.707.3 ruu found in one of the threads thinking that it would restore it to stock with s-on.
Eng hboot is gone but I still have s-off. The thing is the phone is not prompting me for an OTA, even by manually checking for it in the about phone setting.
Will s-off prevent me from receiving ota? I was thinking it should immediately prompt me for an update seeing that the latest firmware is 1.82...
Please help thanks.
Download the ruu.exe ,or ota in lucky .

Even after flashing the RUU from HTC I still have s-off... I was not the one who rooted the device, It was like that when I bought it from my friend.
My biggest problem is that the phone cannot find the update which I think it should, seeing that the firmware is several months old and that a few updates have already rolled out. In other words, a 1.34 firmware should immediately find an update to a higher version.
Could there be a compatibility problem as I do not know the original rom that the phone came with and I just chose a WWE asian firmware since I am from the Philippines.
Amazing!! Ever heard of google? Or asking what original firmware is or rom? Heard of htc support?
Sheesh

Hi guys,
I got a Desire HD from Vodafone australia, currently voda is rolling out the Gingerbread update.
When I first got my phone I rooted s-off'd and all that and loaded cyanogenmod.
All in all it started having issues so I installed an RUU of the 1.72.405.3 generic. Originally it had 1.32 voda branded rom on it. Now everytime I go to check for updates there doesn't seem to be any.
All my friends desire hds have got the update but mine. So I am wondering if anyone else with the 1.72 from has received the update and or if I will get it due to not using the original rom.
try installing the original voda RUU. then update
Why don't you update to 2.3 with an ruu file, the file has been out there for a while. (not on the PC or I would provide you a link)

If your phone is running a stock 1.72 rom then i'd say yes you'll get the OTA update, but since you've got S-OFF i'm not 100% sure.
I'd suggest you just use the Gingerbread RUU in the development section
I'm having the same problem. Vodafone Australia phone. But used gold card to put unbranded 1.32.405.6 on. I haven't been able to get the OTA update to apply, just says I'm already up to date.
Edit: I tried booting up the phone with the SD card I used as my gold card. Didn't work either.
My HTC desire was originally T-mobile UK Branded. After rooting and messing about with a few custom ROM's I returned it to Stock using:
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed
Downloaded from xda
It's now clean unrooted, unbranded, stock hBoot HTC Sense 2.2, nice and stable apart from a few problems with text messages.
Question.
Will this phone update to Gingerbread (if it ever does actually appear!!) in it's current state, or will I have to try and find the original T-mobile branded ROM? Which I don't have by the way; anyone got it???

Why did't you just say Rooted and use you best RoM, and wait for the XDA Devs to use official RoM? imo A leaked version will come out before OTA.
since you debranded it i see no reason to not recive OTA
so you should be ok
Does stock Desire have sense 2.1 or 2.2 ?

Also wouldnt bother re-branding it as the unbranded version will be out MONTHS before the network versions - if they ever bother to bring one out that is !!

To get OTA updates from your carrier you will need the official rom, the t-mobile roms are listed with the other RRUs in the Dev forum here (look for the TMO RRUs) - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667
a direct link to the latest t-moble RRU i beleave is this one here - http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_127570_signed.exe
hope this helps
OTA on debranded handsets (with a gold card) stopped working with the last OTA update - chances are you'll need to use an RUU (assuming it leaks) OR a custom ROM
I found RUU to make the phone more stable than an OTA to be honest.
When I had 2.1 -> 2.2 the bluetooth was all over the place, kept dropping out etc., and a few other minor niggles.
Flashed 2.2 RUU from scratch and it seemed to 'fix' some of the issues I was having.
Friend of mine tried same but had been factory resetting to try and fix things and I suggested running RUU and he said his phone seemed more stable after that too (rather than the factory reset option)
Not sure how much of the above is just a placebo effect - or the reinstall completely did fix some possibly dodgy files?

Maybe the OTA update didn't clear cashe correctly when it installed to make a bug. At the end of the day RRUs contain all OTA updates up to a certen point, the reinstall would wipe cashe and data so it would fix the bug you had.
