OTA updates

sorry if I sound totally out and stupid, but are ota updates available for the Rogers HTC Magic? Or is this something that has yet to be made available up in Canada?

It's not stupid at all... I wander how to make my mobile OTA capable...
Does changing images makes OTA capable or OTA is clean googles cupcake OS?

I've been searching on xda and hofo, but haven't found any info on rogers updates.
I'd like to know if the rooted boot.img would prevent this update from installing. Can you change the title of this thread to something like "rogers ota updates"?

i am looking for this too. i have a rooted rogers rom running on my HTC Magic. wondering if i can get it updated.
There is a manual download link for it on phandroid. and there is 2 flavours. US and UK. Which one should i take if i can update it that way. I am in Malaysia btw.

anyone? i really want to know if the update will work..

Im intersted as well, Im going to be purchasing a magic as soon as i get some questions answered. I want as full of a google experience as possible, so I would like the OTA updates, and I would like to be able to run the hero rom, which is why I would need the "rogers" magic.

No you wont be getting OTA updates from Rogers. They do not support there phone OS's just hardware, you'll have to email HTC for any updates. I had to go to Sony and Nokia for my last phones, said the same thing this time.
By the way the last OTA updates were security updates, I've read that it has caused problems for Rooted phones.

I've rooted and flashed the rom on my phone.
I don't think I will receive any OTA updates because of this but even if I do I will decline to download it.
The roms being cooked on here will be better then any single update i'm asked to download.
I mean the devs are already ripping apart the Donut development code as we speak!!

You will not be recieving OTA updates on the rogers branded magic because it is not a google experience phone (it does not have the with google logo on the back). In your case you will have to decide which you need more, the sense ui, or ota updates. Remember, "with google" phones will most likely not be getting the sense update officially.

Also have to remember that any of the "with Google" phones have 192MB of RAM where the Rogers has 288MB of RAM. Which alows running the Sense UI properly.

Ok. So OTA wont come to me.
But if i use the update link manually, will it make my phone go haywire?
will i lose root access?

I am also looking for this solution for OTA updates

Ok, now we have the 2.1... but how should i as a root user with stock 1.5 rom handle this? Can i directly install this update (when it's rooted) or do i have to install the pre-update for that? Would be nice to hear an answer

No update message yet for my T-Mobile G2 Touch (Netherlands)

Also checked manually and started the download -> Switzerland

croatia too

Sad the copy text feature in the Browser is still broken on 2.1... a cursor appears but can't be moved with the trackball I can only select by touching which is not really accurate.

Since Whole Europe gets the same update, so, the same version, is HTC now able to push the next update faster (if they come anyway?)

Probably no other major updates coming for the hero.. bug fixes possibly.. but we would be very very lucky to get an official froyo upgrade.
Sprint has already announced that it will not be providing Froyo for the Sprint hero.. So I think chances are slim for the GSM

[Q] LG GT540 Optimus Firmware Update

Hi Guys,
Can you please let me know when lg are making release firmware update in UK. I am currently using 1.6 but i cannot seem to update it from UK.On other phone the is update avalible for 2.2 but not for this model LG GT540 Optimus.
When are they planning to release update for LG GT540 Optimus.
From,
George

Check http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/popup/ezlooks_to_csmg_noti.jsp?country=&model=&curPage=1
Currently the only 2.1 Eclair UK rom that has been released is Vodafone.

Any idea when they are going to release firware update in uk.

I don't think they are going to release it soon, because in many countries they are just now releasing 2.1...

2.2 will take alot of time, im doubtful if it will ever get released for GT540.

It will be released unofficially way before it gets released officially
Sent from my GT540 using XDA App

I'm also interested in an update, but as I understood from the salesman there won't be any officially updates for that mobile.
(apparently because of its hardware that will not meet the system requirments.)

Help
Hello! I would like a help! Download the driver for installation ... in which everything was fine but for GREECE had a problem with this network! I made the mistake of reinstalling the 1.6 to 2.1 as I was and then the lg gt 540 optimus necrosis! is lit and stops on its brand lg!!
I would like a help;;
Thanks!

according to my recent communique from lg customer services in the UK, there are no plans whatsoever to release anything about android 2.1 as they claim the system is incapable of managing it from a hardware point of view.
Steve
p.s. I think it is a load of lies personally.

Depends on where you live, well, I live in Aus and its already out, but LG update is being a bit** to me

Why Froyo is not available for my Wildfire

Am in India, so is my friend
He bought a brand new Wildfire a week before. Accidentally, he checked for System software update and it said, froyo 2.2 is available to him
But when i checked, it dnt show me nothing. What is the problem.!!!!
I already installed many customs roms and then finally came back to the square one by installing the material from Shipped Rom!!!
some light please!!!!

I haven't got an update either..its still stuck on some 1.14.720 $hit

May be people who bought this phone recently have software version above 1.14... (i.e.. 1.25.. or 1.35...) and they are getting the updates now,.
AFAIK no one with 1.14... version have received this update till now in India.

Same problem here. I am on 1.14.720.2. Got this phone from flipkart.

I had 2.1 rooted & could not install new updates. Only after 1.37.405.1 update i got Froyo 2.2 by air.

2.2.2 streak rom question

I just recently picked up a dell streak. It's brand new with what I'm guessing it the latest shipped rom which is build number 15274 running android version 2.2.2
All I see is custom roms and reflashing back to other roms to root....blah blah blah...is there a way to just root my current rom and not have to flash a completely new one? I'm all for supporting the community, I'd just like to keep this as device as clean as possible and remove all the bloatware.

Download SuperOneClick v1.5.5 and root away. Dont forget to put your phone into USB debugging mode before rooting, its very important that you do that. Or just follow the steps in this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=925853 good luck.

Wow thanks, I totally skipped over that post!!! I guess from what I was reading I was expecting the whole process to be a lot more complicated.
Thanks a ton!

Anytime.

How come Dell don't push out the 2.2.2 version OTA to their customers?
I check for updates every day, but have just once received any. (2.2)
Their way of saying; "we just don't give a f*ck about our customers"?

You should have gotten that update weeks ago. It's been OTA for probably about a month now. And I don't know how much you've read, but a lot of what happened with not updating from 1.6 was probably AT&T's fault because they wouldn't okay the build (speculated). Dell had the source up for 2.2 for a long time, if I remember correctly.

I'm on unlocked stock EU ROM since day one. Just to clarify.
Do you mean the 2.2.2 was shipped OTA, for EU users too?

Ohhh. Didn't notice you were on EU. I don't know if Dell released one for EU yet (probably hasn't since you don't have the option to OTA). Just remember that it's not just the phone maker responsible for updates, the carrier has some say in it, too. Are you still on 1.6? Because you could always try out DJ Steve's ROM if you wanted to try something different.

No, the one OTA update I received, was the 1.6 --> 2.2 on last October.
Since then - nothing. I guess it's only in America people get the 2.2.2.
Thanx for taking time to reply.

No problem, haha. I hope you get it soon

I really want the update to, I'm in the Uk and I'm still on 2.2, I would do it myself but its just to complicated and don't wanna mess up my phone. Has anyone in the Uk got the 2.2.2 upgrade? And to be honest I really wont the 2.3 upgrade, but seeing as we still don't have the 2.2.2 upgrade, I think we'll be waiting a long time :'(

2.2.2?
If someone updated from 1.6, to the "non official" 2.2, is there any difference between it and 2.2.2?

2.2.2 is supposedly immune to the malware loaded from the 50 or so infested apps that Google removed recently from the market.
