Unfortunately I am stuck with very slow GPRS (not even EDGE).
Many people have shared the update on zipped files.
I wanted to know, if I download the update in zip file and transfer it to my mobile, how can i manually install the update myself?
I have found the steps to update the froyo:
1. Download the Android 2.2 firmware for the Desire – here is the link to download
2. Rename the file update.zip and copy it to your microSD card via USB. [Note: make sure the file is named update.zip and not update.zip.zip.]
3. Power down your Desire
4. Hold down the “Volume Down” button as you power the phone back on.
5. A screen should appear showing your phone’s system searching for various files. Scroll down to “recovery” and press the “Power” button.
6. When you see the triangle with an exclamation point symbol, press the “Power” and “Volume Up” buttons at the same time.
7. From the menu that appears, select “Apply sdcard:update.zip.”
8. When the screen displays “Install from sdcard complete” select “reboot system now” and wait for the phone to power back up.
Come on someone must know tha answer?

need answer
Why are we NOT getting update? Do we need to De0Brand the phone? if so how? Plz plz someone help
Actually, my question is aimed at those, who have the debranded phones and who are getting the update, but are unable to download it because of in accessibility of wifi and slow data connection of operator.
Official link for update is
http://liveimage.htc.com/OTA_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.09.405.8-1.21.405.2_release4dua3bcrut4wrv30.zip
Now please tell me, how can i transfer it to my mobile and install it from there
I have the same prob. Already downloaded the zip and gonna try a methot found in another website.
Since I'm a new user and not allowed to insert links here it is:

I know this is really newbish but I guess it should work. Will post the results laterz.
You can also check the process for desire's cousin nexus one:

really? No one is willing to help?
I think you can download the ROM via PC and flash it then with your Recovery!
Should work, but not sure..

I am not sure what is problem
I have tried the above method my self. And every thing ended out great.
The only problem I faced was failure to upgrade due to low disk space. I deleted some apps and tried to install it again. It worked with out any further issue.
You can make sure that you DONOT touch the zip file. DONOT even open or extract it, just download it and transfer to SD Card.

YESS ....
This might be the issue. My desire is not operator locked. May be you guys have branded phones, thats why this ROM is Not for you.
Have you tried this method?
To manually update the phone
1. Download the official firmware update.
2. Copy the file to your microSD card and name it update.zip (newb warning: not update.zip.zip)
3. Power off your phone.
4. Hold down the VOLUME DOWN button and power it back on.
5. The phone will now search for files like PB00IMG.zip, etc. This is normal. Scroll down to recovery and press the POWER button.
6. When you see the /!\ symbol, press the POWER button and the Volume Up button at the same time. You should be presented with a menu and one of the options should be "Apply sdcard:update.zip".
7. Use the trackball to navigate to "apply sdcard:update.zip" and select it.
8. When you see "Install from sdcard complete", select "reboot system now".

I got the same error message. Could it be that my Build Number is 1.19.707.7?
I believe the Zip file, before being renamed to update.zip, contains a different Build.
It is 1.21...
I am using a Desire in Singapore. Any idea why the OTA is only available in European countries?

You can follow this guide to stop the Sprint update notification using the latest version of ES File explorer. This instruction is for the Sprint Samsung Galaxy note II. This is known to work on other Samsung devices as well. This guide will begin from scratch so that anyone can follow it from square one. If you already have root and ES File Explorer set up you can skip to step 7
See a video demonstration here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifG5iPSFuCE
1. First be sure you have superuser access (root access). You can use a root checker like this one to be sure
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joeykrim.rootcheck&hl=en
2. Download and install ES File explorer. You can get that here...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.estrongs.android.pop&hl=en
3. Open ES File explorer and grant root permission. Go into settings and set your preferences
4. Tap your device menu
5. Tap Tools
6. Tap root explorer.
7. The root explorer menu will pop up and you'll tap Mount R/W
8. Fill in all the bubbles for RW and tap OK
9. Navigate to the root of your device (At the Top you'll see the root directory is listed as "Device" or "/")
10. Tap the File named "etc"
11. Tap the File named "security"
12. Long press on the otacerts.zip until the check box appears and put a check in it.
13. Tap more
14. Tap properties
15. Place check marks in the read and write boxes and Tap ok
16. Tap rename (on the bottom action bar)
17. Rename the otacerts.zip file to otacerts.bak and tap ok
18. Tap refresh (bottom action bar)
19. Pull down the notification curtain and accept the update. *Some devices reboot here. (if the notice isn't in your notification bar just go on to the next step)
20. On your homescreen open your device menu and Tap system settings.
21. Scroll to and select System update.
22. Tap Update firmware.
Your device will say it is up to date and you won't get the notification anymore. If you do then reboot and start over because you skipped something.

About that... I do appreciate your comment but I wanted to make a guide (and video) to help the most people. I felt like giving a free option here would be the best way to go.
I know there are apps that can freeze the updater but I didn't want to get into a comparison of the apps that may do it or provide instruction for every single one of them. Also there have been reports that freezing the updater didn't work or caused other issues. The solution I provided will work on the Sprint SGN2 (and other Samsung devices) and only requires ES File Explorer which I feel very comfortable recommending and is free.
I would like to consider all the options, though. So, going forward if we're going to recommend alternative solutions I think it would be best if a guide (or a link to a guide or video) would also be posted with it...or at least some detailed instructions. This way the most people will get the most out of it.

First backup, in some roms it disabled by default and i'm not sure but it should be some like system updater or updater some like that
This is an excellent guide and a sure and EASY way to get rid of those pesky updates.

The update notice you're seeing now is minor. It contains a security enhancement and nothing else worth mentioning. You needn't worry about it.
On a side note if you want 4.3 and don't want to wait for the OTA update you can get it here

I don't want to seem contentious but you must have missed something in the process. This process is tried and true and has worked for tens of thousands of people so you most likely missed some minor thing. At any rate, when done exactly right it works.
I would suggest that you first make sure you're rooted and if so make sure that you've granted root to ES File explorer. Next make sure the otacerts.zip file has retained the name change to otacerts.bak and if it didn't then you've got permissions problems. Next in ES make sure root explorer has RW selected on each item. Make sure the icon for the otacerts file looks like a question mark (if it looks like a zip start over).
The best thing to do is just repeat the process. Take it slow and don't get frustrated. If you'd like to make a video of you going through the process I can look at it and tell you what you're missing.

All of the things you mentioned I did. I am running a stock rom and am rooted. That being said, I may have posted too quickly before. After performing the tasks that you outlined very clearly, the notification returned upon reboot. I slid it away and it has not returned. So, I humbly withdraw my previous post.

If you wanna test to see if it comes back you could reboot again. If it doesn't come back after a reboot then you're all set. Let us know how it goes.

I would suggest going through the process again. It's very easy to miss some small step in the process. Be sure you're rooted, make sure you've granted root to ES File explorer, make sure you have Root Explorer turned ON, make sure you have rw selected for all four selections under the Mount R/W menu, and make sure your name change of the otacerts.zip file sticks, make sure that the otacerts.bak file looks like a question mark and not a zip, and remember to refresh. Those are the most common things people overlook when running through this process.
Watch the video and follow precisely. Take it slow and don't let the video get ahead of you. I go really fast through it in the video so the pause button will be your friend. You'll get it don't worry.

Is it giving you any kind of error? Since it's Write only, you'll probably have to change the permissions to be able to copy it from the cache folder. You should be able to do it with Root File Manager. I know I can with Root Explorer.

well root file manager says it was read/write for the owner so i changed the permissions to read/write for all users. then i attempted to rename it to 1update.zip.....and then the file disappeared.

i created a 0byte file named update.zip in the cache folder and rebooted, and now it is telling me it is ok to install. (my battle level is below 50% so it wont let me). so i cured the modified error. but the actual download is still MIA. says device status is normal. it was probably kicking that error because it couldnt find the update.zip since i somehow renamed it and it decided to play Where's Waldo.

you can download it but you won't be able to install it until you are over 50% battery life.
Like many of you new flashers, I have flashed the SkyDragon ROM and have noticed that there is no connectivity to the computer whatsoever, so I did a little digging. I went back and forth between 2 Nandroid backups and kept flashing parts of them until I could narrow down where this problem was coming from. I found out that it comes from the specific folder - data/property
There is a missing file called persist.sys.usb.config ,13B in size, and I have no idea what it does (maybe some of you could enlighten me) but throwing the old file into that folder, changing the permissions to rw-------- and rebooting worked like a charm.
I apologize for not sticking this into the development thread, however I'm a lurker with no input! :victory:
Without further ado,
I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY BORKEN DEVICES. IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING, DON'T DO IT!
1. Download Root Browser and RB Text Editor
2. Navigate to /data/property
3. On the bottom bar, tap the "New" button
4. Click on "New file"
5. Enter the file name as follows:
persist.sys.usb.config
6. Click the file you just made and hit "Open as..."
7. Hit "Text file"
8. Click RB Text editor
9. Delete whatever is there and enter as follows:
auto_conf,adb
No spaces or caps!
10. Save the file by clicking the save button on the top right corner.
11. Reboot your phone
12.Profit
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Steal this information, spread it around, someone post it to the development thread and make this ROM better!
If you're having any problems, don't hesitate to ask

Only if you're going to dirty flash it, but at that point, I'd just dirty flash it anyways. The file should already be there if you're on a ROM that can recognize your phone. I also do recommend a clean flash. I'm sorry if I made this difficult. When flashing the rom, it'll format /data which is where the file is held so if you had the file there already, it would just wipe it.

As long as it's after the wipe then yes. If you opened up the zip that contains the ROM, you could head into /data then create a new folder called property and throw the file in there then zip it back up and flash it. But you MUST put the file in /data/property AFTER you flash the ROM. You could drop the file into a downloads or media folder because those don't get touched then flash the rom then move it and change permissions then reboot as well.
So no, you cannot drop the file in it's PROPER location before you wipe, otherwise it'll get deleted. However, you can copy/paste it into say, mnt/sdcard/Download, via your root browser, beforehand then follow my instructions

I tried creating my own file as per the instructions (came to 13b size for the file too), but my phone isn't being recognized in android file transfer.
Then again, it wasn't recognized either when I was on stock rom (prior to flashing anything).
On my phone, the file already existed. Its contents read....
Code:
boot,adb,mtp
I changed it accordingly based on your instructions, reboot and nothing.
I found that if you turn USB debugging off, then on again, the file will get overwritten with the original code...boot,adb,mtp.
Could it be that this command simply enables USB debugging? That's what my testing showed. I turned off debugging, made the file change, reboot and debugging was enabled. Disable debugging and the file gets overwritten. Rinse, repeat. If I delete the file, it is recreated when enabling USB debugging....boot,adb,mtp.
Just a preliminary finding. I'm not well versed enough to explain or troubleshoot it any further. It did nothing to cure my USB problem.

I may have overlooked something. I deleted some usb portion of the build.prop. Didn't change anything so i didnt think about it. If you make a backup then edit it deleting the usb part, then reboot that might get it to work.If you need specifics, I'll be next to a computer in about an hour and a half
Can someone just post the file here?

I copied one of the persist.sys files from that folder to my sdcard and edited it with Rom Toolbox Pro. I opened it as a text file and deleted what was there, then added the stuff in the OP and saved. I then renamed the file to persist.sys.usb.config and added it to that folder and changed permissions and rebooted. Worked fine.

Awesome! Glad it worked for you
This is from my stock rom with the modified skydragon kernel. place in root\data\property. let me know if this works. just rename it and drop the .zip part.

On my phone, the file already existed. Its contents read....
Code:
boot,adb,mtp
I changed it accordingly based on your instructions, reboot and nothing.
I found that if you turn USB debugging off, then on again, the file will get overwritten with the original code...boot,adb,mtp.
Could it be that this command simply enables USB debugging? That's what my testing showed. I turned off debugging, made the file change, reboot and debugging was enabled. Disable debugging and the file gets overwritten. Rinse, repeat. If I delete the file, it is recreated when enabling USB debugging....boot,adb,mtp.
Just a preliminary finding. I'm not well versed enough to explain or troubleshoot it any further. It did nothing to cure my USB problem.

I tried creating my own file as per the instructions (came to 13b size for the file too), but my phone isn't being recognized in android file transfer.
Then again, it wasn't recognized either when I was on stock rom (prior to flashing anything).

Much easier now. Just tested it with a Nand that didn't work at all and followed the instructions and it worked flawlessly. Let me know if you have any more issues

I can now confirm that this does work. I now have working MTP again.
You guys could try adding "persist.sys.usb.config=mtp,adb" to the build.prop and see if that works.

I'm trying to select a zip file in the updater's setting to be flashed after the OS. The select dialog allows to browse to the file but whenever I tab on it, it opens the zip, i.e. showing its content, instead of selecting it.
Any idea would be appreciated.
Ok, it needs to be marked via long press and then selected via "open". Not exactly intuitive but it works.
