New OTA update for Legend ( netherlands/europe )

I just received a new ota update on my Legend ( european / dutch version). The changelog was:
-Enhance data connection stability
-Fix loss of ringtone for incoming call
Also noticed : other quickoffice icon , pinch to zoom in googlemaps ( didn't have it before not even with the newest update from the market).
Update is : 24.37MB, and it now says 2.1 update 1 , software version now is : 2.05.405.2
Maybe there are more changes , but haven't found them out by now

Same for belgian htc legend i just updated my software looks like a maintenance release while i was hoping for froyo to come

When is froyo gonna come out already

It's live in Sweden as well. It's installing as we speak

Here in Norway too ...
We all know Froyo gonna take a while. But I do think HTC will loose a lot of customers if they don't speed up the updates. 12 weeks waiting in the android world is like 12 years in the real world. When the Froyo is out its already outdated. Just look at the Hero ...

Maps
I was hoping to get Google maps 4.4 with that update but unfortunately it's 4.1 only... One more time I got evidence that Santa doesn't exist

Just updated 2.03.405.3 to 2.05.405.2. Worked like a charm. Hope to see 2.2 update soon. Anyway Legend works pretty well with 2.x.x ROMs and is very fast.

Google Maps 4.4 can be found in the Market

Hi, I cannot find Google Maps 4.4 in the Market. I'm currently in Bulgaria. Can I ask you to post Google Maps 4.4 .apk for the Legend on some FTP site for me? It will be much appreciated. Thanks a lot.
Cheers.

Sorry, i can't upload to FTP server. http://rapidshare.com/files/409495524/Maps_4.4.0.apk.html

No new update in Asia (Singapore) yet. ;(

just to check, which european firmware do i have to flash in order to receive this OTA update?

I have now 3 times tried to download the update and installing it...
Every time the phone reboots.. reading the package... Then end up in the screen with the red triangle...
What can be the problem? I have tried to get the update both from 3G and WiFi..

Maybe your phone is rooted.

Update received in UK yesterday. RSS newsreader now updates properly and in a reasonable time - a few seconds instead of 2 minutes!

I defently notice the enhance data connection stability.
I live in Norway and its not flat at all like Denmark So the connection is very unstable because of all the up and downs. Works MUCH better now! Love it

Problems since updating...
After updating to 2.05.405.2, messages (sms) starts at the top of the thread so I need to scroll all the way down to see the most recent/new ones. A real hassle with those long threads!!
With every restart of the phone I am being prompted to change settings for the SIM-card, getting a list of carriers to choose from.
Any thoughts?

Updated Facebook App is Live - Almost As Nice As the iPhone App Now! :)

Go get it!

I just updated myself. It looks real nice now i may use it now.
Using CM6 nightly crack......

Meh. I'm in the middle about it. Not too sure if I like this layout better or not.

remove the old one and reinstall from the market.
Will it send you notifications like the IPHONE APP? Thats the one feature I wish it had. Also why still not chat?
I don't chat often but its nice to have an all in one app. Fbchat is okay.

yep, fresh check fresh updater. rebooting after applying update now.

Yeah, it's not a whole lot better. But, it works faster, better and is cleaner and easier to use. Now it uses the touch.facebook.com site, too, which is a slight improvment over the mobile.facebook.com site.

new look of facebook apk
heres the apk
whoever cant get it to download it.

Definitely an improvement, but still missing push updates and clicking on a notification still takes me to Facebook touch on the web instead of keeping me in the app. Still fail.

Is it just me, or is this new Facebook (on EVO running stock Froyo OTA) causing pretty serious wake-lock issues? If I look at battery history in Spare Parts it shows that it has a partial wake-lock for almost the entire time that my phone has been booted, which is causing the phone to sleep very little...draining the battery very fast. I do have the automatic update disabled, but have the widget on a homescreen. Can anyone else corroborate this?

Installed just fine on CM6 for me. It fixes the CM6 native sync issue, so no more hacked Facebook.apk needed! Oh, and it still isn't anywhere near as nice as the iPhone version. All of the notifications open in the browser, and you don't have as many options in the main menu. Even the BlackBerry version is better.

It is nice, I'm happy, the old FB was trash. Still a long way to go to catch the iPhone but its a good start.

[Q] New Market?

new market update? does anyone have any idea if this can be implemented by end users, or whether it will need to be cooked into ROMs?
see article
http://phandroid.com/2010/12/11/android-market-updated-serious-changes/

I am presuming that it will be delivered to us as an updated version of the android market app. once it is released.

I was able to get it running on my HD2. Looks very nice!

its working with my desire hd rom

Can anyone put up a mirror for the .apk?
[edit] NVM... saw updated link.

works on coredroid's HD rom

Just thought I'd chime in & report that they're apparently pushing the new market out already. I went to download some apps earlier & found the new market on my phone. It seems a lot faster than the old market.

So it got pushed to your phone? You didn't have to install it?

Yes, mine was pushed onto my phone just now. The Market looks much nicer and is more informative than ever before.

I've installed on my hd2 with mdjay's revolution build but i can't get every app anymore like the official paypal app. I'm on vodafone netherlands. If I install marketenabler with the same vodafone settings in other builds just don't matter. (20404)

Mine too.
Think you just have to enable the accounts & sync background data and voila it gets updated unknowingly through data so wifi should not be a problem as well.

Now app no longer installing

Focus rev. 1.3 with official Mango (7720.68).
I did a reset because the market compasses would not work. Before the reset the phone was working fine in the market and had the latest Now app....the one with the column of menus among which was settings. The one where you could select the subjects like latest tweets and such.
Now, after reset, the Now app no longer installs. It says it isn't for my device's software version. Most of the other Samsung apps will install, except for the ones relating to future phones with video calling features and such.

same thing happening to me and I tweeted @samsungsupport and they said they couldn't support a 3rd party app?!??

I found out why the Now app wasn't installing and also why my Focus was having so many market issues and other functional issues. My Focus doesn't have the Mango update meant for it. AT&T hasn't released the update for this round of AT&T devices yet, even though mine is a Rev. 1.3 version. The Mango mine had was meant for it. AT&T recommended restoring to the previous update till the next update round on the 16th or 17th of this month (Oct.) comes out.
But that is strange Samsung said what they told you.

Samsung needs to fix the "Now" app. I now have the official Mango update specifically for my Focus and the "Now" app won't update to the latest one because it says it isn't for my phone. It's funny that the "Now" app is installed on my Focus by default but says in the marketplace that it isn't for my phone.

Same problem to my Focus, official mango. Can't install Samsung "Now".
Edit:
I find an XAP of "Now" somewhere on Google. Successfully installed.
But Microsoft should fix this bug.

What is the version of that XAP? 2.0 or later? Or did you find 1.5 or something like that? Thanks

Thanks in advance!

There is a way to force it if you have root but according to the article your mileage may vary, You can find the instructions for what you need to do here https://www.xda-developers.com/try-android-messges-for-web-now/

is this carrier specific? I'm on straight talk and i got the update, but no option to enable it.

Got the update this morning.
Traveling without a computer.

I even removed and then redid the update, nothing! Not a happy camper!

Guys this is a staged rollout even once you have the update until google turns on the feature server side for you you don't get it. So chill and relax it will eventually work.

its here, i have it right now, w/o the hack

I got the notification today. Running beta 2 on Android p
