Hi all, I've had my desire hd for about 3 weeks, the other day I went to update the software in it but when it checks for it, it says no software update available and that my phone is up to date, I am currently on 1.39??? Is this correct? Or is there a next update for my phone? If there is how do I get it?? Or is there a problem with my phone?? Any knowledge would be greatly appreciated, also I'm in the u.k as well, ok thanks everyone

You got a network branded phone?
You can root and install a custom rom anyway, this will offer you the most up to date roms anyway.
Yeah mate its Vodafone branded, in all fairness every other phone I've owned I have either flashed, jailbroken, or rooted and to be honest I just wanted to steer clear of that and just stick with stock firmware, I'm really happy with my stock dhd but obviously if an update is available that's gonna improve it, then I'll do it, but I'm checking for updates but nothing is happening :-( I was just wondering if I should either be patient or send my phone for repair or even if there is an update available at all???

If you root, S-OFF, Radio S-OFF and then flash a Generic 1.32 WWE HTC RUU then you can follow the update to the latest HTC firmware.
Your DHD will then have the latest firmware and receive any future updates weeks if not months before they get pushed to you by your carrier/network.

I have a stock DHD, unbranded and on 1.32. No updates here...
Just an FYI post this, but I am also wondering if something is up based on what you just said.
The latest official HTC base is 1.84.61.2
You should try *#*#2432546#*#* (checkin).

Right thanks. No joy here still. Is there a way of manually pushing the update and if so will it affect future updates?
Are you rooted, etc...? Have you tried setting your date 1-2 months in advance? This worked for my HTC Hero with the 2.1 update ages ago.
Other than flashing a custom sense based ROM which has the 1.84.61.2 base we just have to wait until the update gets pushed. I would of thought that you would of have had the update, even Vodafone UK are now pushing 1.84.xx.x
reflash the RUU again. Maybe you have uninstalled some system apps.
guys the ota update is currently only for south east asia

anyone with nonbranded europian update can share it? should be in your update folder on your sd. Prolly it is the only file in the update folder on sdcard, should be in ace.1.84.720.3.bla bla convention. btw file is deleted after installation , so copy it to your puter before installing the update.
thx so much
why are u posting on every thread?

Don't think its due to clockwork mod
I just bought a 3 branded (ireland) wildfire and am having trouble unlocking and rooting it. Saw the 2.2 update rom available and tried to install but because I have a branded phone it won't let me.
sucks balls. HTC need to start pushing the networks to release updates as soon as they are available...

I think this guy is talking about the latest OTA update:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=776991
The Legend update for unbranded handsets did not work on debranded handsets.
Anyone know if this is also true of the Wildfire Froyo update?
i've debranded my vodafone WF in august and got 2 updates via OTA, working fine, while using goldcard "all day" (its in the phone)
but today, there is NO Froyo for me in OTA, could it be, cuz i'm using a debranded phone?
where is the official unleaked by HTC uploaded RUU? shipped romz is empty, no 2.2 yet.
So flash older RUU and then check for 2.2 OTA.
I think I will do the same in the evening if I see any improvements on my girl's WF after OTA update.

how do you flash older ruu?
It seems like plenty of people have updated their DHD but mine is still stuck on 2.2 only. It was a branded handset and flashed it with a HTC stock rom 2.2
S-Off, ENG Off and rooted.
Would I get OTA updates or I have to deactivate any of the above to get updates?
Thanks

You will get updates, but HTC officially put the update offline for unbranded devices due bugs.
Branded devices will probably have been updated, but those (branded) updates still have bugs. So it's not recommended to get the official 1.72/1.75 update.
Also, if there's an update and you update your device, you'll lose your S-OFF, ENG OFF & Root!
If you really want to have the latest version/update, you probably want to check out the custom roms in "Android developement" section ;-)
Actually radio S-OFF will survive

Cheers guys...just gonna wait and see when update arrives for my phone.
Just got a notification for an OTA update on my Orange Desire HD - anyone know what's in it??
A quick Google doesn't show anything newer than dec 2010 in the blogs etc, and the Orange website is as useful as their customer support....
If your rooted with S-OFF, chances are it will fail when you try to install it.
It's probably the update to 1.84. If you look in the Dev section the RUU has been posted there.
If your considering installing a custom ROM in the near future then I wouldn't bother. It patches the exploit used to gain root, and you will then have to downgrade to root.
All the Sense based custom ROMs are based on this latest version.
I'm not using a rooted ROM and probably wouldn't anyway, so I should be ok then. If I understand you correctly Andy?

Pretty sure the leaked 2.3.3 from HTC turned out to be the same as the official one.
Alredady updated to 2.3.3
