Tmobile usa update - HD2 General

I got a text from tmobile saying there was a update for my phone, just wondering if anyones done it?

One more here... I will wait little bit more and see if that is in fact new new new update... not the one they released and pulled out due to issue people reported...
Click here for pocketnow.com review:

Ya I also got the message yesterday afternoon. I knew TMo already had rolled out 2.13 stock rom as I upgraded it from my standard 2.10 stock rom more than 3weeks ago. I am also aware it had issues as reported by many people also to add fuel to the fire for some unknown reason TMo decided to pull the download out making it offline. So thinking this maybe be a new revision of the stock rom 2.13 I desided to check it out and found its the same 2.13.531.1 TMo stock rom.

UPDATED: 05/26/2010
Due to overwhelming demand, some customers experienced slow download times when attempting to access the HTC HD2 software update from the T-Mobile Web site. As a result, we temporarily removed the link from our Web site to ensure the best possible customer experience.
Now that we have solved our server issues, we are happy to announce that the software update for the HTC HD2 is now available on the T-Mobile Web site for customers to download and install on their HTC HD2 smartphone.
If you have already downloaded and installed the software update to their HTC HD2, please continue to use your device as normal. You do not need to reinstall the software.

.....For the record people, there was NOTHING wrong with the initial release, T-Mob just had some bandwidth issues caused by all the simultaneous downloads....hope this clears it up.

mine is a sim free phone so i could not login to look at the changelog
perhaps if yours is branded tmobile you could do so, and post the changelog here ?
there must be some change or why would they post it dated 15/03/10 ???

there is no changelog from htc's site. it's just a small "updated" t-mo uk ROM, still based on the very first 1.43 ROMs. i wont call it an update at all. FYI, this so called update has been made available in xda for a long time now. i've downloaded it and compared the Hash, and they are 100% identical.
omg!
if this is the update i've waited 3 months for then heads are gonna roll!
is it actually the exact same rom as before?
what the hell was the point in it?

It's not even an update. Its the exact same version number that I have on my original ROM T-Mobile HD2 - ROM Version:1.43.110.2.
And yes, I still have my original ROM. It works okay for what I do, and want to stick with official ROMs if possible. Maybe in the future if T-Mobile don't give a real update, or I hit serious issues, but for now I'd like to keep my warranty intact. I'm aware I can re-flash it easily back to the original ROM (even more so now that ROM is officially available to download) - however my concern is over times when I get a fault which means I cannot re-flash it.
i'm on the original t-mobile rom and find it suitable. the only real change ive made is to revert back to the windows messaging set up, not htc messages.
how many people on the original rom have had problems with HTC messaging?
The disclaimer says:
* This is a generic software update. Any additional software or settings provided by your mobile operator or company will be lost. If you require this customization, please contact your supplier first before upgrading.
This may 'unlock' t-mobile from their current position and allow them the HTC rom upgrade path.
Has anyone tried this?

Interesting point, however I suspect it's a standard disclaimer they put onto their ROM downloads. Would be interesting though for someone to confirm?
Well, someone try and download it using their S/N and try flashing. Worst that happens is it says 'Incorrect Vendor ID'

rom upgrade INDIA
when is a rom upgrade for indian users coming??????????
ANy Help HEre....
At least we now have an official T-Mobile ROM we can revert to if we ever need to take the phone back.
I know they tend not to bother if you install other ROMs, but nice to have it as a fallback option.
*sigh*
Goldcard here we come... Interesting that on t-mo's own forum thread
they haven't actually announced the availability of this yet (even though they must be able to see their own customers fuming away...)
support.t-mobile.co.uk/discussions/index?page=forums&topic=801038058f61be601258e88860f007fca&messageit.offset=70
(can't post the link, so you'll have to cut and paste..)
I don't even want to think what the reaction on there is going to be once they actually announce it.
Ah, no, they'll mark it as solved, and no-one will be able to post! Good stuff, eh?
I tried it just incase it was generic but that was a a massive waste of time, as far as I can see this rom is identical to the factory version.

TMO US: Updated ROM (Version 2.13.531.1)! Has anyone tried it?

(Looks like noone has posted about this here yet)
http://dl.htc.com/ruudownload/t-mobileUS/DeviceDownloads.aspx?pid=leo
Anyone knows what has been fixed and what else has been changed in this ROM?
from what I've got elsewhere on xda, the 2.13 base "feels" slower than the 2.10 base, apparently due to some changes in the touch driver.
Replacing the touch dll's with 2.10 ones seems to fix it.
yea the leak version was very slow but the official in question is on my device now and its awesome, looks like ALL the issues HD2 had on Launch in USA for T-Mobile have been resolved, all the things that made the HD2 kinda Suck have been fixed, I think there should be a big announcement about this ROM upgrade because the early release ROM that shipped on the device gave the device a bad reputation already people mentioning "Lag" and constant "reset's" and things of that sort, I think T-Mobile should really Publicly encourage the ROM upgrade and add something cool to the upgrade like a cool free app which would be some sort of incentive to run the ROM update....and get people talking about how great and fast it is now once its updated, craigspissed actually has people trying to trade off iphone 2G's straight across for HD2 phones claiming the HD2 is too slow and has issues,...wait till wm7 gets released on the USA T-Mobile version which it will by the way, there is a reason why T-mobile version packs that extra RAM over the Euro version, it was part of an agreement with HTC that T-Mobile would receive a wm7 upgrade giving a second burst to HD2 Sales once the release of wm7 happens.
This ROM really has sorted out all the kinks,....The official t-mobile one though not the leak one.

You will need winRAR to extract and build the .exe
I split the .exe into two .rar archives on 4shared so it would be under 200mb so I could upload it, its uploading now, you will have to download both .rar files and right click .rar1 and hit extract and it will automatically extract .rar2 and create a folder with the Official .exe in it.
HERE IS THE LINK GUYS:

oh yeah!
they got rid of the texting issue! it no longer takes forever to load the text messages and no longer blacks out the the text you selected to go into the conversation losing your place in the text you are writing! i now 100% love this phone. i do wonder what else they slid in on this update on us though!
update... if you select a text from further back on your conversation it will still jump to that message you selected UNLESS you started typing already then it stays where you are! still a 500% improvement.
There is a new app called "My Account" that pulls up your t-mobile account status. Pretty cool.
I could be wrong, but my WiFi seems to be working a LOT faster after the upgrade. In fact, it does seem like the lag in several apps is gone...
sooo how do i get this rom into my phone!? is it like adding cookies home tab?
I can I know if I can install this one my phone?
My radio version is 2.08.50.08_2
I don't have the tmobile stock ROM, but a custom HyperROM version. Is it safe to install that new software update?
I posted a personal analysis change log in the T-Mobile USA section for the HD2.
I've been running this updated ROM for about 24 hours now.
how the heck do you put it on the phone I have the exe file on My Device and I go through File Explorer and click on it but it says it is not a valid Pocket PC application. What's the deal?

Watch this link for T-Mobile US HTC HD2 Updates.

You should be seeing true t-mobile (US) HTC HD2 updates in this link WHENEVER they are available.
http://www.htc.com/us/support/t-mobile-hd2/downloads/
Ain't it weird that it's not showing the update that's already on T-Mo's page, though?...
I think it's because technically it's a T mobile phone now and HTC probably isn't supporting the ROM updates. It's listed under T Mobile brand on Tmos website, so that is why I'm thinking this. My Touch Pro on Sprint got updates from HTC, but it was listed as an HTC phone.
Well my T-mobile TP2 is on the HTC section of the list in that support section, and the official upgrade ROM that came out months ago still isn't up...so I think it may be a case of Tmo and HTC just having an agreement that Tmo handles it's own update releases. Just a guess though.
has anyone flashed the new rom yet? any bugs? i'm out of town and can't flash 'til i get home...is it worth it?

The title says it all:

Support teams are engaged and working to resolve these issues so customers can take advantage of the many benefits this update will provide. Once the issues have been resolved, the software update will be re-posted on www.t-Mobile.com/wmupgrade.
Customers who have successfully downloaded the software should keep the update and continue to use their device as normal.
Thank you all for your patience!
Leads me to wonder whether or not T-mobile tested the update thoroughly before releasing it to consumers...

"and may be experiencing additional issues following successful downloads."
Not really sure what the "additional issues" are, but I hope that includes the radio problems, sensitivity problems, and the scrolling issues.
Yea, It was probably just refering to the slow download speed from the site. It's gonna be the same ROM with its issues.
Download is still there

thanx alot my hd2 needs work
Unless they modified this update, it will make the phone less useful (as for my experience). I updated my htc hd2 but I immediately downgraded.
Yea It was up this morning my guess is t-mobile was getting excessive bandwidth issues with all the hungry consumers wanting this updated ROM, which they all very well should be !!! ROM has been on my device for over a week and I haven't had the need for a battery pull or reset since, everything is kosher,...there are complaints of lag, but I have not experienced any issues with my HD2 since I upgraded my ROM to the 2.13

I've updated to 2.13 yesterday and last night, it was taking up to 45 seconds to make a call. Holy Smoke!
I mean I've pressed call and put the phone up to my ear and took up to 45 seconds before I heard first ringing.
I'm looking into downgrading for now.
well i downloaded the update yesterday but then like half and hour later the update from the website was taken off and that made me think that it might of been something wrong with the update other than a downloading problem. until they put a new download i highly doubt that i will upgrade. hopefully tmobile will announce some news on what the update is doing to these phones cause many people have upgraded and most of them have different problems.

Not. Normal.
this is a junk upgrade!
Downgrading's easy. Just go to the sticky and download the 2.10.0 rom and then flash as you normally would and then you're set. I just did it this morning and boy what a difference.
This update has been very good for me, on both HD2 phones. Battery life is much better, reception is better, data is faster. I can see a difference in the touch-screen sensitivity from the original but everyone was complaining about it being too sensitive.
It would be good for HTC to develop an included GUI for adjusting the screen sensitivity.
For me this update has been very good!
There is a cab to change the sensitivity back.
it worked fine for me. second day and its fine.
It has been working great for me. No freezing (yet), and much faster response time. Weather updates still buggy. Opera browser got an update as well.

Looking at the verbage used in the statement issued by T-Mo, it makes it seem like by putting SOOO much emphasis on "trouble downloading" and then throwing a little 3 word "and after downloading" at the end that the real issue is the ROM. I say this because bandwidth is cheap (relatively) and for a wireless provider like T-Mo, pushing 200 mb files out to a small subset of their users should be nothing. I've downloaded 5+ gb of data from Microsofts websites the day that updates were released with no download issues what so ever.
My thoughts (and this is probably wishful thinking) are that maybe .01% of downloads failed (which is normal) and so they have the proof to back up their claims about the d/l being buggy, but the real issue is the actual ROM being bad
T-Mo is in the business of communication (aka transportation of voice data), they have the technology to push a relatively small file to an even smaller subset of users. I'm raising the BS flag on the download issues and hoping for a better ROM release.

Ok, but the file is back up on their site with the same version number. Indicating that is has been put back up for download, but no changes to the ROM.
A lot of the newest ROM's are based on this version, correct? Is so, how has the stability been affected? I have heard nothing but bad stuff on the update and am not surprised it was pulled. Are the ROMS based on that update OK to use. Stable? Fast? Screen jitters?
I am running Kumar 1.2 now and am considering upgrading.

Froyo update - Virgin Canada

Any idea when its coming?
Maybe the question should be more like: "Will it be released in Canada"
i highly doubt it will be out before the generic htc froyo rom...so i want to de-brand and flash the generic rom...
can anyone recommend a good guide for flashing the generic froyo rom to our specific model virgin canada legend? thanks in advance...
Canadian carriers are pretty awful at releasing updates in a timely fashion. Hopefully Virgin will break the pattern. Just to give you an idea, the predecessor to our phone, the Hero, just got an update from Telus recently... to 2.1.
I contact HTC via email about the software update for Bell/Virgin HTC Legend and they tell me to ask it to Bell/Virgin. I sent an email to Bell without answer. If anybody gets an answer from them let us know!
There's another thread about this very topic at HowardForums (can't post the link due to new account restrictions).
But anyways, apparently one of the Virgin reps is "looking into it" .. maybe we'll get an answer there soon.
I have just gotten off the phone with Virgin mobile and HTC and told them that i have the 2.2 for my legend already installed and rooted all that fun stuff i got them to send me to tech support to get the APN settings for my baby and he also let me know that the 2.2 is in devlopment up there and will be released some time soon... no exact date but he's heard that they will be supporting it...also if they do release it OTA i think they may release a patch if you agree to the OTA you may loose root and possibly never be able to root again due to the new update.. Hope this was some help.

HTC legend Rooted 2.2 FroYo Virgin Mobile
@virginmobilecan tweeted that it would be mid January prior to the New Year, and they have been releasing Froyo for the other phones fairly early than they promised, I'm thinking tomorrow?
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
Out for Virgin, no clue about Bell.
EDIT: Yes, Bell got it too.
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
Finally got it yesterday. Apps2SD is a lifesaver.
Can't change lockscreen anymore, so that sort of bites. Other than that, Love the new live wallpapers. Haven't noticed any speed increases, but It's not like i've been looking for them or paying too much attention to load times.
So far i'm really happy with it. Voice commands, flashlight, etc. all nice features.
It's a shame they didn't add the 2.2 camera interface.
Is the new version comes with the Wifi hotspot ? Anyone with the new official update let us know?
Also i'm wondering if i flash mine with the new official update, whether i can still root ?
I would like to have the wifi hotspot... coz i heard with the official update they removed this functionality that normally comes with the unbranded OTA froyo.
Thanks

It is there. Just checked on my wife's Legend.
Generally, it has been a great upgrade. The only issues are that a couple apps have not been updated by their authors in a LONG time so they do not work well on 2.2 and that for some reason, the screen lock dots were set to only come on after 5 minutes of non-use. My wife had it set to immediate before so she was annoyed that that changed.
App 2 SD isn't the lifesaver I was hoping it was... I find the apps still take up some space on the main phone even after you move them to SD. Frustrating.

I'm a Rogers customer who purchased an HTC Legend from a VM customer. Contrary to what I was told by VM, I did receive the Froyo update (today) when I checked for it on my phone (it wasn't pushed).
It includes the wifi hotspot (YAY) and while it doesn't permit pushing all apps to the SD card, it has let me move most of them there, so I'm hoping the 'low space' messages are a thing of the past.
Can't say I notice a big speed boost, but the wireless tethering is big to me, as is the ability to move most apps to the SD card. Looking forward to better voice recognition too.
All the best and good luck with your phone!
Phone seems sluggish at times after my official froyo update... even have to reboot a few times when it becomes too sluggish... i've moved all movable apps to sd but some big ones can't be moved... like swype freaking 18MB and IGO 29MB...
sluggish like finger swiping the pictures from my alblum is really slow and the picture does not follow my finger unles i move it mm by mm and slowly...
anyone experienced that?
A friend of mine on Bell's Froyo has that constantly. A hard reset fixed it though.
you should notice that froyo is much faster than stock eclair...its not subtle at all
They offered me a discount on my monthly bill for 3 months because of the mess up on android 2.2, but when I got the bill, it was still the same amount...
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
Oh ho ho, they do that sometimes as a joke. They treat us like chickens...
Just call customer service and demand a 6 month adjustment, instead.
Or, before you demand such a thing, check your account's notes to see if it will be added on to the next bill. Bell and Virgin operates on advanced billing.

I'm a Rogers customer who purchased an HTC Legend from a VM customer. Contrary to what I was told by VM, I did receive the Froyo update (today) when I checked for it on my phone (it wasn't pushed).
It includes the wifi hotspot (YAY) and while it doesn't permit pushing all apps to the SD card, it has let me move most of them there, so I'm hoping the 'low space' messages are a thing of the past.
Can't say I notice a big speed boost, but the wireless tethering is big to me, as is the ability to move most apps to the SD card. Looking forward to better voice recognition too.
All the best and good luck with your phone!

My situation is the same. But I get the update pushed to me.
After updated, it stuck at loading on homescreen for half hour now.
