debranding UK O2 Desire.

Hi
My desire has firmware : 1.20.207.3 CL171460 release-keys
I'm debating debranding it and putting the latest generic rom on it.
The reason for this is I'm moving from the UK to NZ, but would like to get the 2.2 firmware upgrade.
From what I've read, debranding will allow me to upgrade when I'm out of the UK.
Is this safe to do ? I don't want to brick my new phone !!
Can you advise how I would do this or if there is any other option for me !!
Many Thanks
Hi sorry to pick this one up as not answered but I am in exactly this position.
Bought a Desire from o2 in UK and moved to New Zealand.
VF NZ sim works straight out the box,
but will I be able to 2.2 this phone? My sw is 1.20.207.3.
Obviously dont need any o2 features on this phone as I wont be using their network?
Cheers from both.
Debrand using a ROM and guide, both can be found on this forum. I used a WWE ROM and it worked for me without any issues. You should then get any OTA updates as soon as they're released in your region.
Hope this helps.
Rik.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
download a stock rom from here than up with that

[Q] Is my HOX strange?

Hi everyone, i just need a clarifying answer: i have a no brand european one x (i'm running 1.29.401.7) and i didn't get the latest ota yet, so i tried to flash it through the stock recovery, but i got "cid error".
Now, my cid is HTC_016, how come i have an european version and (for what i know) a south african cid? Is that possible?
I tried the european RUU but it can't be installed, so, what strange combination do i have??
Edit: i discovered my phone has a Vodafone South Africa CID, why do i have a 401 european software version?
Thanks!
I think your cid is for South Africa, this is why you didn't get the update
here is the list for cid
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16186408&postcount=1
Its for the Sensation but I think its the same for Hox
Yep it is, so i don't understand why is it an european version anyway.. is cid different from branding? My software is the same 401 like the Eu no brand versions.. this phone is a mystery

The South Africa has the same software number as the UK 401 but it has different
cid htc_016 and UK htc_001

No Lollipop update available

I've got an unlocked, unbranded Australian One M8 (HTC__039) but I'm not getting any updates to Lollipop. I've installed all the updates but the latest has kept me at 4.4.4 (Sense 6.0, Software 3.32.710.9, SDK 6.25, build 3.32.710.9 CL397296 release-keys) and saying there's no further updates. I'm not S-OFF so I can't change my CID to apply another OTA and I want to update before I start using it and have to reconfigure things again after the update. I was under the impression that HTC have released Lollipop for all unlocked variants now?
Am I doing something wrong or have HTC not released an update for my CID yet?
Your phone is Vodafone-branded, hence no update yet
It's not Vodafone branded. Vodafone branded ones carry a CID VODAP*** this is HTC__*** which are the international variants.

Vodaphone is also international. And if you mean it's wwe.....it's not, wwe has software number 401.

Well, not sure why it's listed on the Vodafone Australia support site then...
http://support.vodafone.com.au/articles/FAQ/HTC-One-M8-software-update
But no, it's not the European unlocked so no update yet...
No ota update
Hello,
Can some one help me out or at least try.
I have installed the stock ROM of KitKat 4.4.4 3.28.401.9 from the links provided on my HTC ONE M8. I have stock recovery, unlocked bootloader, S-ON and non rooted but I cannot receive any update of the new software Lollipop. Is there an app or something else that is blocking the update?
3-4 days ago when it was released in Europe, I have managed to download the update from the phone, but I couldn't install it because of some error. Then I decided to wipe the system and install the stock rom again and now ... no update what so ever ? Any help ?
Thanks a lot!!!

Vodafone just happen to have the latest version too. It's still not Vodafone.
I did contact HTC Australia today and it IS an unlocked Australian version, but they advised they have not released the update to Australian customers yet and HTC Australia have not been told by HTC HQ when the release will be available
Seems a bit of a poor effort to me - The phone is the same and it's unlocked so why shouldn't all unlocked variants get the update at the same time???

It's probably a network unlocked phone but taken from vodaphone. The software number does prove it comes originally from vodaphone.
Any news?
Hey guys do you have any news about Lollipop Update for the HTC One M8?
I've got an Australian factory unlocked version and in these days I checked so many times if there was the Lollipop OTA but nothing appears... Is it normal or something is wrong?
I'm worried now, I was wondering if someone of you could help me or give me more informations about it.
Thanks for your time

HELP, in need of stock O2 UK RUU!!

Hello, there is something wrong with my M9 and I need to return it to O2. But they won't take it currently as it isn't running their version of the firmware. Can anyone help me out?
Cheers
You cant flash the o2 Firmware on a Europe 401 Device only if its S-OFF.And i think if you unlocked to bootloader you dont have warranty thats how its handled at o2 Germany i work there
