I just can't find the latest firmware neither in support site not via Firmware update section in Settings.
Just a thought, maybe HTC cooking something.

If you want the full ROM for an unbranded Desire then click the one in my signature. It's the latest one, 2.29.405.2
I also try to make an update through OTA and nothing appears.. any news why?
And 1 more @ EddyOS:
If I download this rom from your signature link how will then install it ? Thanks!

Is your device branded somehow? If it is, don't try to apply any update. You'll just have to wait...

No it's not branded.
Well maybe its for the better. Only thing that i got from this OTA are problems.. Battery temp is higher then before, and there is problem with installing apps from market( maybe its not related but it started to happen after upgrade)
No root
Hi, the same with my Desire... I got the update offered once, I canceled that and from that time never offered.
I assume I should wait if I don't want to root right?
It seems that HTC removed the update. It isn´t even listed on their website anymore.
It might have a reason that they did so, but i didn´t find any information about it yet.
(I too got the update available-message which i also cancelled. 2 days later (3 days ago) i tried a manual search and i found nothing, even with friends phone on stock rom)).
C'mon guys, the update was obviously pulled for a reason. Do you really think HTC is denying it to your for s**ts and giggles? There's obviously something wrong with it and you don't want it on your phone.
Whenever I tried to do an OTA update it would download and then tell me the update is corrupted and couldn't be installed. I was running a stock euro ROM at the time.
In the end I gave up and installed a generic WWE ROM which included the latest update. Everything works just fine for me. The battery life seems much improved although I don't notice this as much as others may as coincidentally I've started leaving Bluetooth on for use with my car kit.

Guys be glad if you didn't updated your phones yet. The update only gave me troubles. Reception is worse the before, the phone feels more sluggish, I encouter more bugs...wished I didn't update my Desire...
You're an unlucky one, I've had no issues whatsoever using it
Agree... this update was great... it solved at least 4 problems to me:
1. the drop to 90% when removed from the charger
2. bluetooth connection to my headset greatly improved
3. when opening the first SMS on top of the message list it sometimes was opening the last one, not really a big problem but annoying
4. when writing long sms it sometimes would start an endless of conversion of "sms-to-mms" and "mms-to-sms" over and over again...
and so far have not seen any drawback.

I also had this problems! Really annoying..
I am also getting a lot of process failures..
So updating
EDIT: Damn, having problems -> here.
On screen keyboards look different I *think* - slightly bigger keys - (I was just messing on an iPod so may be mistaken!)...not noticed anything else.
I managed to snag this update via OTA. I'm on 2.2, unbranded, un-rooted. All is as HTC/Google intended.
Since installing this update I've noticed slightly better battery consumption, but I'm having a few FC issues. Downloading from the Market, browsing pictures, sending an SMS, using Twitter for Android will all drop an FC on me every one in fifteen times I'd estimate. This is up from never prior to the update.
I can only guess this is an issue related to this update as I never had this problem before hand, and I have more free memory on the Desire now than ever before after having a spring clean to find the space to install the update.
May not be this update, but it's the only system aspect which has changed since it began.
I havent had any problems updating to this.

Hi. I received an OTA notification yesterday (14/12/10) that a software update was available to download. I have successfully updated my unbranded sim-free HTC desire to 2.29.405.2. So far I have not noticed any changes to my device nor any adverse problems since the update.
Kind regards
Scott
Looks like it was either a server crash their end of just a staggered release...only thing really of note is a few app updates and smaller bug fixes
I posted this in NilsP's Business GingerSense thread, but don't think it's a ROM issue, more of a Google Talk issue. Running the 2.0 version of that ROM.
The issue is where Google Talk shows all your contacts as Offline after a period of say five to ten minutes, maybe shorter than that. I'll be messaging someone, and after a few minutes when they haven't responded, I'll wake my phone and open GT. All the contacts are Offline. A simple sign out/sign in fixes that, and the usual contacts show Online or Away.I've noticed this all week, so I'm thinking it's a GT issue, but I've never had it happen before.
Don't want to have to sign out/in every time I want to use it. Cleared GT cache, fix permissions, multiple wipes of data/system/cache/boot/dalvik/user data before each ROM install, and haven't had this before now.
Thoughts?
EDIT: After playing, it happens when switching from 3G to WiFi and vice versa, so maybe it is a ROM thing...?
i'm having the same issue. noticed after my gingerbread OTA update from verizon.
Droid 2.
It seems to happen a few minutes after logging on.
I also have that issue with Gtalk. After some time all contacts appear to be offline, but only when I'm on data connection and not on wifi.
There is still no solution for this?
Cheers!

Me too. Anyone was able to do something?
Well I've since moved on, and haven't noticed it on other ROMs. Right now I just tested toggling Wifi on and off, and the contacts would appear offline, then come online once 3g or wifi connected.
I'm thinking in my case, it was that version of the ROM I was running at the time.

Just a thought, check any task killers / managers and make sure talk is unchecked. I had the same problem a long time ago and ATK was the culprit. Haven't had the issue since and I have used almost every Rom possible at one point or another

True. Right after I rooted over a year ago, I had an issue with the alarm clock not going off intermittantly, and coincidentally I was using ATK at the time. After reading that ATK could be the issue, uninstalling it fixed the issue. Since then, I don't actively kill tasks, but I do have System Panel installed just in case.
I'm running Stock+ v2.6, and since moving on from v2.0 of NilsP's ROM where I had the initial issue, I haven't noticed/had the problem.

Hi,
Me and the other user are I9000 users. No task killers. We're trying to figure out if its a stock / custom ROM issue (since we're both using the same ROM), or some app forcing GTalk to sign out, or even a network problem (we both use the same mobile operator).
Thank you both for your input.
If you're on a stock ROM (you're both rooted right?), back up your ROM and flash another just to see if it happens in something different.

Yes, we are.
The thing is that it seems to me that it happened only after XXVJR (meaning it happened to me in XXJVS and XXJVT, and now we're already at XWJVU, all these being Samsungs "leaks"), and I have a friend with XXJVS that works just fine.
I even tried flashing a stock ROM, to see if it happens again. Testing that one now.
Thanks for your advice.
Same problem here.
Although I have not tried it with stock non rooted phone...
I'm having the same problem on a stock rooted Motorola Photon. Very annoying to have to sign out and back in to see who's online. Hopefully someone comes to the rescue with a solution.
Hi,
The only thing I could find is that the problem is, indeed, NOT in the custom ROM's. It's google's problem.
The only way I could get by was with an alternative IM. And, for me, the better is Trillian (taking battery, performance, etc. in consideration.)
I updated my software which included an updated gtalk with video..so far so good.

Mine got better with one of those. But it ended up all the same.

I am having this issue too. I have had it since the beginning, when I had the preinstalled stock rom, I had it with all the other stock roms I flashed, I had it with all the versions of Talk I tried (those which supported video calls), I had it with all the other customs roms I tried (Simplicity, CyanogenMod, MIUI). I never used any task killer. For these reasons I am strongly convinced this is a Google Talk related bug.
Some more details about the problem:
after a few minutes after having logged in, contacts are shown offline on Android while they appear online on the desktop client;
despite their offline status I still receive messages from them and as soon as I answer only that contact appears online while the others keep being shown offline;
signing out and back in fixes the problem temporarily, but it happens again after a few minutes.
What surprises me is how come very few people seem noticing it or being annoyed by it? How come a huge bug like this has been out for so long and Google hasn't fixed it yet? All the posts I have seen reporting this problem on Google Talk Help Forum have been ignored.
Exact same problem with my I9100, Gtalk with video. Very annoying.
I have the SGS i777 (Samsung Galaxy S2 on AT&T), and just recently (since late February) started experiencing the same issue. When on WiFi, it doesn't appear to be an issue, only when not on WiFi, particularly if I have just recently turned off WiFi.
Other "friends" show me as "Away", so I am connected.
This is bone stock 2.3.6 Samsung official ROM (never rooted UCKK6).
I tried crawling a bit through the logs (aLogCat output), filtering for "[Tt]alk", but I can't make enough heads or tails about where the failure might be (not being an actual developer), other than lots of messages get created. I'll see if I can't figure something more useful out about it.
A hard reset with no apps installed has the same problem. Though I've noticed that the problem appears to get "worse" as the phone "ages" - namely, hard reset fixes the problem, but it slowly (over days) gets worse and worse.
Update: I have not noticed this issue at all since getting the official Samsung/AT&T ICS build (IML74K.CLE5).
Google Talk failing for toooo loooong
Hi there,
I'm a cyanogen 7.1 (stable) android user, and I just want to join myself to every other person who's affected by this issue.
I'll leave here some links to other places discussion exactly the same issue:
code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?can=2&start=0&num=100&q=gtalk%20offline&colspec=ID%20Type%20Status%20Owner%20Summary%20Stars&groupby=&sort=&id=24242
You may check this thread: groups.google.com/a/googleproductforums.com/forum/#!topic/chat/6m0YqHoiIDg
Until now, I wasn't also able to find any clue to what the cause may be.
Starting to suspect that's something on Google's side, not android/rom itself.
Maybe something to do with our google accounts' settings?
Are there any news about this issue? I'm having the same problem.
I have not had much success in getting replies from folks in the thread regarding the latest update from T-Mobile so thought I would post it here.
Ever since the 4.1.2 OTA update from T-Mobile, the weather widget no longer is able to detect my location and get updates on it. I can manually set my location, and that will update, but if I try to add a location and click the "Detect" button, it hangs for a moment trying to update then simply quits, without detecting my location.
Someone suggested I delete data from the weather widget app in settings, which I have and still the same problem exists. Anyone else have this issue?

Have you had any other issues with any other apps that use the GPS?
The most I can advise is a Factory Reset otherwise. Unless anyone else has any better ideas regarding this issue.
Look in the GPS fix thread stickied here. It may have a few things to try.
Do any other gps utilities work?

I should have mentioned this, but I have no problems with location settings in any other app, whether it be using 4g connection, wifi, or GPS. But to my original question, are you guys not experiencing this problem? I simply want anyone else to confirm that with the new update, their weather widget detects their location without issue...?
I am not experiencing this issue, with any weather widget/app, nor with any other GPS dependent app. Granted a week after I updated my phone I bought Nova Launcher and switched to using the Weather Channel instead of Accuweather, and since then I rooted my phone, but I still do not experience the issues you are having.
Check the GPS Sticky Thread, it may help you.
Sorry to dig up a old thread, but this problem was resolved with the latest OTA update.
after updating to stock 4.3 rooted ...first i had same problem...
bt now fixed..
i flashed again...clear cache...thn reboot phn ...and everything back to ok...... :cyclops::cyclops::cyclops::cyclops::cyclops:
Ok, I'm having one of the strangest things happening right now with the Google Play store on my Vision. I'm running a stock rooted T-Mobile Rom, gingerbread 2.3.4, and it keeps redownloading and installing apps that I've deleted every time I reboot my phone. Any help/ideas why? xD
*Edit*
So turning off Auto-Sync in settings fixed the problem for some reason. Hope it helps for anyone having a similar issue in the future
Hi,
I'm in possesion of a brand new Galaxy S4mini since about 3 weeks. The 2 first weeks everythin worked fine but then i observed that my phone is losing signal. I figured out that this happens when the phone try to switch to LTE signal. After that i have reset my phone to factory settings and configured the phone from the begining. I installed all the apps i always install and also had installed on my previous Galaxy S3 mini. LTE is working fine but i have another problem now.
I'm unable to remove any application. When i press on uninstall it is all the time "uninstalling" but nothing happens, the progres bar is just floating and floating. And cannot go back, the onlu option i have is go to HOME via the home button but the app is still installed. Throught Google Play i'm also unable to uninstall the app, same case, all the time the message "uninstalling". The applications have no Admin rights on the phone. I tried a factory reset many times and also wiped the phone. I also observed that my phone is rebooting sometimes by his own.
Edit: i am also unable to install any new app from the Play store. Same think like uninstalling. I click on Install and the progress bar is floating but nothing happens.
The phone is not rooted with stock Android 4.4.2
Have you any idea what can cause this issue and how to solve this? Could this be caused by an apllication installed on the device or could this be a software issue of Android?
If i have a valid warranty is this kind of issue clasifying for warrant?
Sorry for my english, i am from Poland.
Cheers
If you've tried wiping the phone and its still not uninstalling apps could be corrupt memory which is definitely covered by your warranty.
Some weird issues there. Also if it's rebooting by itself sounds like something is not right.
A 3 week old phone shouldn't do this. What Android version are you running?
Hi,
Thanks for your quick response. I have Android 4.4.2
Kernel 3.4.0-3173303
So yeah....i think i go on monday to an autorized Samsung service point and tell them whats happening and i hope this case will be clasified as warranty.
Maybe till then anyone else have other ideas what i can do i that case?
Thanks
All I can recommend is flashing the latest stock ROM for your device model and country code twice over using latest Odin. Maybe that will help. Else I think you've done everything you can. Your not using some weird app that could be messing with things?
Stand your ground with Samsung as every company I've had problems with has tried to blame me when clearly the device was faulty. But I always got what I wanted just stay strong and don't give up.
Best of luck.
Thx buddy, i have given the S4 mini a last chance. I switched back to my old S3 mini and wiped the S4mini on more time. I haven't installed any app so i will observe what happened. If nothing then i know that the issue is caused by an app. I will install my apps one by one, day by day and look whats happen.
Thank you, i will answer to this post hence i know whats going on.
Cheers
