I mean detail you are using an htc sense build but what build are you using how are you updating and how do you know the update was successful yielding to android nand flash

HÖÖÖÖÖÖ merry christmas waiting for video (fake?)

hmmmm
seems to be a sense build by the looks of it. I dont think its as easy as doing an over the air update to get it to install to NAND, although it would be halarious if it ended up being so easy. More info would be great. Im still on the side that screams "FAKE!" though.

really some type of details would be great at this point. heck what windows rom are you using ill try it myself.

me too

agreed definitely need some specifications...

looks bit fake, but more info would be gr8

Be patient....

wait please... did u used OTA update,like flashed phone memory and installed android-or just patched HARET to do linux booting from phone storage???
I ask this cause i tracking NAND development all the time-there is no flashing yet...
please reply

Think he has only managed to run an over the air update - probable only updates android but will not be nand - chances are the update will screw his android build and will have to format his SD card... my thoughts anyway from the pictures.

I'll like to tell you guys but I don't know myself
I always try to update Android on my Leo when ever I put a new build on it
And this time it worked
It turns the phone off
Like when it does when flashing so I hold the volume buttos down
I'm going flash my Rom and try it again
I'll make a video of it, if it works ill post it
And no its not fake

build details? what android and or winmo build are you running so I can try to do it myself

My opinion and it is just opinion but what i think is he may be using a rom from a 2.1 build that is getting updated to 2.2 and it downloading it as an update for the orig phone. Will it work ???? Will it install to memory or sd card??? Heck stranger things have happen here on xda...... Why i dont think it will work is cause the download is just 25mb...... A full firware update would be much bigger I would think....

Even if it did work, it may flash a radio from a different device and brick the phone....I wouldn't do it....

I've tried to figure it out what is written on screen
but your pic is so small

*edit : must be this one http://androinica.com/2010/09/09/htc-desire-in-europe-gets-ota-firmware-update/

I smell fake, but the logic behind it kinda works:
Modify a WinMo Update to contain Android and let the HD2 update. But there are to many things that have to be modified so it can be adopted to the HD2.

All it does is download the update and asks you if you want to install it which reboot the phone but does nothing since it just boots into windows mobile instead of the actual update.

[Q] Desire HD with Anti-Root Chip?

Hi,
has anybody heard or knows from the Desire Z and Desire HD anti-root chip?
Is this a fake from T-Mobile?
www.mobiflip.de/2010/10/t-mobile-bestaetigt-anti-root-chip-fuer-htc-g2-aka-desire-z

From what I've heard, it's true !

Only T-Mobile Smartphones?
Only T-Mobile Smartphones or other like O2 or HTC?

I suppose its going to be Anti-root even if the device is unbranded and unlocked, right? can anyone with an unbranded/unlocked device confirm this? (for both G2 and Desire HD)

Well, the eMMC data storage chip is not meant to be anti-root on it's own, but it's configuration makes it.. Well, anti-root.
We cannot write to it (not yet anyway), it has a write protection. The device caches all the changes the developers make to the linux file system, and loads an unchanged system from the eMMC chip upon reboot.

LOL, that's bad publicity ...

I think easiest way would be to find a way to S-Off the device first, and than start rooting

Apparently Paul at Modaco has made a one click root app. I've not got a link have a look in the Development section of this forum.

Maybe this may come in handy: http://www.ubiquitous.co.jp/En/products/middleware/quickboot/
It looks like HTC used this tool for the fast booting functionality of the Désiré HD.
BTW nice to see you again xmoo.

HTC ROM on O2 Desire HD?
So...is it foreseeable to write a new ROM (like original HTC ROM) an my O2 Desire HD?

We'll have to wait first to see if hackers can get through the read only eMMC. Once you see that happen, then root and new ROMs are possible.
ATM afaik, people are working on the eMMC problem in the G2 at the moment, hopefully the techniques they find there will be cross-applicable to the desire HD.

Good stuff. I wish more People would view the vid, then they might understand why those of us who come here a lot can lack a little patience when responding to certain threads. Anything else just ask, after searching that is. :silly:

then just unlock your bootloader and have fun

? You don't need an unlocked bootloader to flash a firmware if its signed using Sony's key?
If you want to update to ics, you can just get a ftf of the firmware and flash it.

Hi mate, a few months ago I was in the same boat. I build PCs, understand basic programming, etc etc but it's a whole new world these android phones! Haha very humbling to go from the guy everyone asks for answers
To the guy who has nothing but questions. Anyway point is I can relate.
When im at my pc a bit later I'll gather up all my bookmarks and links and dump em here for you! 99% of what you need is buried here in xda land so in the mean time... Start reading! Haha

if you've rooted your phone I'd recommend "sysTune" from the store - it's an easy way to change the running priorities in that you simply afford each process a number between -20 and +19 - the processes with the lowest numerical settings are given the highest priority and vice versa - it's an easy way to keep the speed right where you want it, and it's great for a really smooth launcher

Just with reference to this question, when I found out that ICS was available for my phone I just relocked my bootloader and upgraded via PC companion. However, my suspicions were confirmed from first boot into ICS, all the custom roms I had been using were much better!
But I thought you should know its very possible to relock your bootloader, so you might as well try a few custom roms while you wait for ICS.
Ive had my arc for about 6 months now and I have tried all the kernels and roms I could find, I reached the conclusion that Arconium ICS v4 Get Arconium ICS V4 here was the best for me. Im currently using Arcknight RC3 Get Arcknight Kernel here as my kernel but I have heard good things about using the stock kernel with CWM.
If your going to delve into the world of custom roms and kernels send me a PM and I would be happy to help with the processes you will need to go through.
The way I see it, there is no point in us both doing the 6 months of experimentation when I easily share what I've learnt with you

Proposal on Support for HTC One M9+

Dear all, hopefully this thread wont be closed down before any dev sees it. I would like to ask any dev who is kind enough to assist our community (m9+ users), including rooting and s-off of m9+. Anything you need to make that happen, please do let me know how to get them and I will extract the necessary for you. Any other new m9+ users please feel free to propose anything. Thanks all.

I share your hope that somebody is going to help us root our m9+ soon

Not only root. I think it's very important to get an option to replace chinese only Sense restrictions.
1. For example there is no facebook updates option in blinkfeed.
2.
When you drag home button in the circle Hidi launchs instead of Google Search.
3. HTC themes and backup doesn't supports login via Google.
4.
5.
Let's continue the tasks.

Won't there be a more conventional Sense 7 experience say with the Indian or UAE versions of the M9+?

Totally agree with you, just a bit of patience

I'm waiting for the Chinese one arriving here soon. I don't promise anything, as I'm very low on free time this last year, but if anything, I'll be looking into kernel stuff.
So to start out with a question:
is it possible to unlock the bootloader on official site?
As I see, the kernel sources are not yet up on htcdev. I'll ping them on twitter later

Great!!
Yes,you can unlock the device(M9+) on the official site,htcdev, just like before.
The kernel source of M9+ is still not out yet.
Wait for it and look forward to your magic on this new potential SoC.
