HTC Desire Update

Playing around with my Orange HTC Desire, it's been updated to Froyo 2.2.
I've just noticed a new System update 2.17.61.3 is available. Is this a lesser version than 2.2, if so what are HTC playing at. and can someone explain what the update does please.

What do you mean 'lesser'? It's Orange's FroYo update, there's nothing 'lesser' about it other than the build number
If you're rooted you won't be able to flash it anyway

I already had 2.2 and I got the upgrade today. So it's not just Froyo - it presumably adds/fixes something.

Didnt it have any change-log when you were about to update it? Usually a window appears telling you what are the fixes etc.. Maybe the Orange website has it somewhere? Mind cheking it out?

You don't get changelogs with ROM updates. Orange did just release a bug fix so it's likely to be that. Just get it...
Still don't see it as a 'lesser' update - surely a bug fix is a good thing? What version are you on at present?

As far as i know the latest OTA update from HTC did have a changelog.. Anyway.. Can we get a change log from anyone? Does it have an updated radio?
Sent from my, reborn in HD, Vanilla Desire.

The Orange update (2.17.61.4) is less than 5MB in size so doubt it, the 2.17.61.3 had a radio update but it's just the .27 already on other RUUs

Nexus update on JB

Hello together,
I have got a question regarding the update of a GN. Everything on this phone is basically manufacture default. Its bought in Poland and used in England. Since JB should be OTA the phone should have a Message on that top scroll down screen when the update is ready - i guess.
Will the Update of that phone be received with Polish updates or with English updates and do i need to change any settings on that phone? Like download only by wifi and something like this?

I would guess that the update will be the language on the phone so if your language is set to polish you'll get polish updates, also you shouldn't need to change any settings to get the update, but if you're trying to force it you can clear data and force stop the 'Google Services Framework' app and then check for updates again, that made me get it instantly.

Go to settings->Apps->Swipe across to 'All'->Find 'Google Services Framework'->The Press 'Clear Data' and 'OK'' on the Dialog box->Then 'Force stop' and 'OK' on the dialog box->Go back to settings->'About Phone'->'System Updates'-> 'Check now'
The update should appear and download a few seconds after that, as I said it worked first time for me but for others it takes more than one try sometimes.

If you are running a build of Android other than yakju or taku, the Jelly Bean update is not out yet. You either have to wait, or flash yakju or takju as per this thread.

Well.. is the build version listet in that about phone window?
are those builds the stock once? can i check a page where it gives that information for which build it might already be out? thought the wonderfull thing is updates out as soon as android is released

Look at the Settings->About phone menu and read the Build number. If there are more than 6 digits in that field, you are NOT on yakju or takju, and there is no JB update for you yet. You are on some Samsung build.

there are several version of the firmware, some with location specific modifications.
if you want the version that comes straight from google without waiting on samsung, follow efrant's link.

thanks for the heads up .. but i cant be bothered to start flashing custom roms over custom roms just because google andoid is not able to provide an update for every stock version of the operation system ... and gave my girl that advice because they get the updates as soon as they are out..
so no difference to one X or the other galaxy phones .. a shame actually .. make me change onto something else with my phone

you only flash it once. thats it.
once you flash it once, you're done. they are factory images from google and any future updates come in a regular OTA update.

But its not my phone and i dont use android atm and i cant be asked to read me in this stuff since i got work to do and part time studies.
is there a list to see when the others will get there update? - still cant believe that sh1t

About that list, ask your carrier.
So, if you dont use android, cant be bothered by all of this, dont have the time, and its not your phone, and you and the owner have been mislead by advertising in your country, we cant help you. Still cant believe the attitude.

the message for android on stock google nexus phones is updates as soon as google releases android .. what does my carrier have to do with this? he does not need to add stuff there.. its not even bought with the carrier

blame your region and blame samsung. it has been documented so many times that there's 3 firmware images that get updated directly by google. 2 of them are for GSM phones and the other is the verizon version (after carrier approval for vzw anyways)
honestly if you cant be bothered to spend 30min to use the solution given to you, you have no excuse. this is my last reply to you.
besides, its not even your phone.

i know its not my phone. but i will not flash another rom on a stock android rom. no reason for except of the build problem that is supposed to be the good thing about google nexus phones. so wp8 it will be for me

^Really? You come to a gnex forum get all your questions answered, get good advice from helpful members here, now cant be bothered and call the phone sh1t. Go buy a nokia candybar, you will be happier. :good:

i probably will .. at least they roll out updates as they come. cmon .. you have to admit that this update politic is supposed to be good for nexus phones and here it proves to be just as **** as on every other android phone on the market .. or whats the problem that this phone is not able to get the update? its not branded and not bought at any provider.

Which exact model do you have? You wouldn't happen to have the Verizon version? If so, that is the latest update that's been approved and released by Verizon. My recommendation would be to unlock the bootloader and install a custom ROM.

hi
i just found out that i have a yakjuxw
I don´t know much about installing custom rom´s and thought it would be easy to fix this by changing a setting or so
I will wait till i get an automatic update

At the speed of Samsung, you will probably get the update in 6 months or so. If that isn't fast enough, the following guide would help to get you current:

[Q] Note 8 firmware upgrade issues

Hi. Dont jump on me for those questions but couldnt find anything here on xda nor google helped me.
So here it is.
Just bought my Note 8. GT-N5110. It has Android 4.1.2 and build version JZO54K.N5110XXBMD1. Not rooted
As I know 4.2.2 is available I wanted to update. But OTA says I am up to date.
I tried then Kies. I have all the drivers uptodate and Kies version uptodate as well. When I connect my Note it is recognized but it seems that Kies doesnt read everything what it should.
It doesnt show the firmware version at all.
When I am trying to check for firmware updates all I get is mssg:
GT-N5110 does not support initialising.
I also tried sammobile. But cuz I couldnt determine which version of Note 8 I have and didnt know which firmware to pick up and installed their apk.
It should check for me everything but I am getting only
Model GT-N5110
Product code. - nothing
PDA N5110XXBMD1
CSC N5110CCBMD1
Modem - nothing
After hitting GET LATEST receiving only mssg - No info foun for the provided firmware.
So my questions are:
- How can I determine is the firmware update available for my Note or not yet?
- How can I determine which version of Note do I have? I bought it on amazon.co.uk so I think it is European version but are there country specific version as well for WIFI only model?
- Which firmware should I download from sammobile to stay "legal" lets say. UK? Dont want to root at the moment.
Any help really appreciated.
cheers

Hi.
I have the same version. (Settings, System, About (or something like that at the bottom) and then in the buildnumber there is the version.
Mine is rooted so i can't do OTA and it doesn't find an update.
I guess since there isn't any 4.2.2 version on sammobile, there doesnt exist any yet for our build.
Greetings
Chris

Thanks for that.
Decided to root so wont worry anymore about OTA or KIES updates.
Cheers

From this link you can get to know about the latest available firmware for your device Model & Product Code. See image 1.
And this link will give you info about all the firmware released for the same. See image 2.
Is the tablet you bought is a used one? Because if it is brand new, then the PDA should be N5110XXBMC9, which is the first release. Also missing Product code can mean something very wrong.

it was brand new bought from amazon.
what you mean "very wrong" ?

You are using an illegal copy of our ROM, Venom is pissed!!

or at least it seems like it.
i downloaded the port over version the other day before all the "close this thread now" stuff. And i have loved it so far.
But, i just got a notification on my phone that said there was an update available, out of curiousity as to it being verizon or venom, i clicked download and it said the following.
"You using illegal copy of our ROM, to fix it apply update" and so forth and so on.
My question is the Venom rom now ready and they are just sending out an update to get up to their specs or is this update going to kill my phone. I have no problem taking this rom off and putting something on if this update was designed to kill the old version, just want to get some answers before i go in any directs.
was just struck off guard today with this development...
thanks,......

i don't think anybody would side with venom if they released an update that killed somebody's phone over a ported rom.

i agree, i was just trying to find out if anyone else had seen this and did the update to see what gives.

UPDATE: i tried to install the update and it fails every single time. not sure what it is supposed to do, but it fails. just thought i would shoot the update to everyone. i am fairly certain that i am not the only one.
thanks,

see if the ROM that we are using was ported from got an update.. since it's a port, it's likely the update is for sprint...

thought that is what it might be, but the "illegal" ROM part made me wonder a bit more than usual..

this wasnt meant to have people fix up the rom for verizon and release it.....when its meant to be released to the public, it will be
our server cant distinguish between actual kang roms (ie chinese ones which are so prevalent) and ports that are being worked on....my advice is to not use a venom rom on your verizon one until turge or jan release it via an official thread
it wouldnt be an update from verizon as its not a verizon based rom with verizon ota files in it
