Hi,
I have updated my HTC Wildfire OTA with 2.2
I want to revert back to 2.1
How can I do that ?
I don't want any unofficial version to be installed.
You cant, sorry.
BTW, 2.2 OTA is official, and since you dont want any unofficial version, you should be happy I guess. :/

It is possible but there is a moderate to high probably brick your phone...basically you're stuck with Official 2.2 unless you change your mind and root your phone and put a ROM on like Cyanogen or Wildpuzzle.

Ok, don't think this has been asked before, but if it has - firstly very sorry and secondly I just can't find a clear answer!
- What do you need to be running to be able to receive and install the official 2.2 update when released on an O2 locked Streak?
Since buying my Streak I have subsequently upgraded from the official 1.6 to Steves 2.2 v 1.1 possibly 1.1.1, I'm guessing I have changed the baseband as I don't recall what it was originally (currently 20321-EU and the kernal is 2.6.32.9)
I'm guessing I will need to downgrade to an old official version of Android but what too, and with what baseband?
Thanks in advance fellow Streakers
eM
2.1 official update 8105 + stock recovery base band 21-eu
Since nobody has actually been able to try it yet, nobody can say for sure what you'll need except that it needs to be unlocked v00 to get the earliest release.

This stock recovery baseband you talk about is that what I'm currently running - 20321-EU???
That's the O2 baseband, your update will be in December with the rest of us.

So does that mean I will still receive the OTA update without having to downgrade to 2.1 or 1.6 even with all the unofficial upgrades I've done???

as i mention in first post its 2.1 not 2.2 you have to downgrade it to 2.1 official
I recently acquired a gorgeous red HTC Wildfire. My pride and joy. However I recently updated it but THEN I discovered rooting on xda!
Now my problem is this;
How do I downgrade from 2.3.3 and although I just updated and believe it is 2.3.3 it says Android Version 2.2.1 at the about screen.
How do I rectify this?
i'm pretty sure you just updated to 2.2.1 (which is froyo), htc hasn't provided a gingerbread update for the wildfire lol. and if you did do the official update, you can't root.

you can downgrade it, but you have to get your device S-OFF first, check here some one can offer you this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=939801
Hi,

build number and software number
1.32.405.6 cl278359 release keys.

Hello,just wait or try to find the latest rom on the forum ...
You will not receive the OTA udate on a rooted handset. You will either have to unroot and wait for the 3 software release or download the stock 2.3 rom and install.
can i not just unroot some how and leave it on the stock unbranded to be able to recieve the ota update?

I have my phone rooted and i receive the OTA update saturday ...
I have just re installed visionary to attempt to unroot my dhd - but it says my device does not appear to be rooted!?!!
maybe i should just install the RUU
does anybody have the link?
cheers
You should instal 1.32 ruu exe then do temp root through visionary. Open the radio s-off tool which you can find somewhere on the forum and you need to do stock cid which is HTC_001 and you'll receive update
Forgot to add that I have a three branded dhd but now it's unbranded
1.32 can find here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=824357
radio s-off here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857537
and you'll receive update
legend!! cheers mate, its now found the update...
now just hope the install doesnt crash or anything
if you have original recovery and you didn't uninstall any system apps you'll be fine

Hmmm that's really odd, just try to go to a service center there and just have it flashed manually by them or just root your phone and then flash any custom GB build (which is better IMHO than stock ones).
Maybe the OTA update are available in Indonesia only, root it and flash the latest ROM or latest build, like using Virtuous Unity or CoreDroid rom
Just flash it, it is nicer than the stock roms and you have possibilities.

UK retail Milestone 2 available to update 2.3 yet?
which SBF should we use?
For UK GB SBF look at there http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19853860&postcount=341
But it's not possible to downgrade back to Froyo or to custom rom, you have been warned - now it is your choice

But how about change UK official 2.3.4 rom to other countries official 2.3.4 rom?
Is it possible?

it's possible for you to change to other EURO 2.3.4. but impossible for stock froyo or any other custom rom (cm7/miui).
Concerning downgrade, we should try the procedure found by Defy owners.
They already had this downgrade problem (when they moved from Eclair to Froyo), and found a way to do it with a nandroid+sbf flashing. It should probabily work for us as well...
Take a look in defy section on xda, I'm a bit on a hurry and can't search for you right now...
Quick question: if my asian versioned MS2 installs this GB UK update, will it be able to use asian font app?
I am a UK Milestone 2 owner. When I got the phone, it had 70.12 bootloader and Froyo.
After the official Gingerbread update, I was able to go back to stock froyo, as well as custom froyo AND gingerbread ROMs, using RSD Lite, so have no fear - it's *NOT* impossible to go back.
What? Are you serious? Can you be more specific about it then. As far as we've already seen, nobody (except for you right now) was able to do downgrade from stock GB. It looks like you have some sort of magic M2 (no-efuse version)
I`ve read on this forum about engeneering versions of MS2..
this is probably such phone rather than magic
