[Q] Update Unbranded Legend to 2.2?

Hi,
I have an unbranded, unlocked Legend with a Vodafone SIM. The FOTA check says (not unsurprisingly) that no update is available.
I have downloaded via PC the Vodafone 2.2 zip file from HTC but would like advice/guidance on how to update my Legend with the contents.
Yes I know I could wait for the update being issued by HTC but the idea of waiting possibly until the end of the year is a real downer - so I would prefer to update now.
Grateful for any advice
Thank you
Giles

I'm pretty you still have to root the phone first before it will accept any other ROMs

Seriously? For like 2 days now, the hole dev section is about 'how to update unbranded phones'.
Just learn to read and don't ask unnecessary questions... thank you.

Maybe a sticky is in order...

There is a sticky. Its the very first post. Everything is in there.

EDIT: When asking questions of this sort, it also helps to know your country, as different countries are getting different updates at different times.

What to do now?

Hi all,
Just received my G2 from warranty exchange from my Note 2 breaking, and I would like to go further with it!
I'm currently on 4.2.2 JB, and was wondering where I could find a link to get to 4.4.2 rooted? Is there a way to unroot (This is important incase I need to send it back).
I've seen a few threads, downloaded two kdz files, but just wanted to check if all I needed to do was flash that and that's all?
Thanks in advance!

You can just upgrade your phone (officially) and then root it afterwards by IOroot.
It's way too easier than the kdz method.
Also try to write a better title for your post.( No offence)

Thanks for the reply! Yeah I realised after reading it again, the title had no context xD Sorry!
I can't upgrade officially since the EE UK OTA update isn't out yet

Just got my G935T

Hey fellas,
My note 4 finally died on me so I decided to get the s7 edge and stay with the android fellers. I did have some questions though-
I got notified yesterday of a 164mb update. I'm trying to ignore it because I think whenever root is obtained it should be for older firmwares right? I'm on G935TUVU2APC8 and I don't want to upgrade and get shafted.
My second question is where are the update files stored and is it possible to delete them or disable the update so I can get rid of this annoying screen that pops up every now and again?
And I know I shouldn't ask but does anybody have a progress report for root on this phone? For previous phones I saw a donation page for root, this one I have yet to see it...

well that thread I've read a couple of times. According to the OP, the 35T is still not rootable. I see more about the 30T, the U, but no 35T

Help upgrading to Nougat

I appologize if this question has already been answered in advance, I tried searching and only come up with threads that are copies of other threads and are misleading. I have a G4+ 64gb/4gb XT1644 retus. I want to update to Nougat, yes I know the update isn't in the US yet. I've read that people have flashed soak tests and such. My question is, is there an official update floating around that I can flash on my device that won't break future OTA's and is not a soak test? I appreciate any help thanks .
