Hello again
Myself and notebookgrail are soliciting some assistance in getting the updated em.xap from DVP devices.
While I understand many of us have updated to nodo, this is not a firmware update, but a software update.
We are looking for users with the following firmware (settings: about to check)
SW version 2250.1800.7355.205
HW version 2.1.2.0.0
If you have a DVP with the above s/w and h/w versions and would like to help get the updated em.xap, PM at once. We only need one user for this but it would help development greatly.
Thanks
Please help, i would like have an upadated EM. IT make take dell forever to release new firmware.
Even if folks have Nodo pre-installed on their newly purchased DVP, please come forward to help us.
Have any users stepped up yet? I can get access to a student developer account if necessary for when the firmware update comes and would love to help out.
thanks but we have the em.xap and there is some good stuff in here...for ONCE!
Please elaborate..
What kind of good stuff
just some dev stuff looks promising
I think we need someone in India.
Or maybe you shall try to contact the one who asked about freezing with nodo and 512mb ram weeks ago.
We got hold of the new EM App. Just wait for a couple of weeks to get some of the goodies

Hi all,
For those who do NOT have the New official rom yet..
Just thought you would all like to know that I have just spoken to to HTC customer services after a customer feedback call and he informed me that the New Speed-up rom will be availiable on the UK website tomorrow 16th september......so now we will al have an almost perfect device...
UPDATE
The New Rom is on the HTC website now...
This Rom is for UK and Unlocked Hero's, go here-

Yeah thanks for the encouragment to post here...
But I thought I would let those of us who have not got it or downloaded it early that it would be availiable tomorrow...I hope you approve..
Dave,
I presume we can only install the leaked UK rom if our hero is rooted?
No, I have an Orange Hero which isn't rooted and you can update it using an update.zip file. Instructions are in another thread!
Is this a possibilty - my broadband at home is down due to BT being inept; could I download the update to my phone, transfer it to my laptop and then update? I'm a total noob so my apologies if there is an obvious answer
will it not be OTA ?
when I had my Dream android updates were Over The Air does this mean that when 1.6 Android comes out we will have to wait for HTC to sort it out before we can update unlike with normal android OTA updates ?

From what I have read, google updates i.e. donut, eclair etc will be OTA. However the HTC updates will need to be updated by connecting your phone to your PC.
Hope this helps...
This is great news indeed, I have been polling HTC website like a madman for days now!
Shame the "Nordic" update still didn't have all the Nordic languages, I'm missing Finnish dictionary. Oh well, speed update is really great anyways, I haven't had the guts to install anything unofficial to my UK bought Hero.
Thanks for bringing the good news!
Hi chaps,
I have a T-Mobile G2 - for my phone's warranty to remain intact, do I need to wait for an official T-mobile version of the Rom, or can I update with the official HTC Hero Rom?
Available NOW!!!
Available NOW!!!

I'm not seeing it on the HTC website - can you provide a link, please?
Thank you!
any idea whn will tmobile release their own version??
yeah I have also T-Mobile G2 uk and I can't download from htc website. Can any one upload this rom and give us links unless t-mobile users can't use it. Cheers
Unless your Hero is unlocked, you can't download the rom.
THIS SUCKS!
Contact T-Mobile and complain to them then..! They DO have the ROM.. THEY are withholding its release!
Yeah, because complaining to T-Mobile always works.....
Seems to take aaaaaages to download!
well i just spoke to tmobile technical dept and asked thm abt the update and they were under the intention tht it is going to get pushed like it did for the G1, so I explained to them tht it wont as G2 Touch aint a google branded phone, and then the guy goes he has no idea and also checked his system if they had anything there, luks like we have to wait longer to get this update on our tmobile branded phones.
Hi all
Everybody seem to be getting the update except for me :-(
I m using a debranded Orange(UK 2.73.61.66) Hero in India. And I rooted it and was running V ROM 10.3.2 peacefully. But I went back to my stock ROM(did RUU update) to get the official update. which is not happening at this moment.
So, first question, Am I supposed to get the update now..?? (Because HTC.com/uk site tells that its being released)
Second, whats that date trick again..? which everybody seems to be talking
And Sorry for creating a new thread, Didn have patience to search through all other threads

forward month and the year. Restart and wait.
You should have 405 prior to getting 2.1. Rather, you have 61...
You don't even need to restart - as soon as the phone figures out that its internal date is over two weeks after it last checked, it will check for update again. Mine did within 30 seconds after changing the date.
Only reason why this might not work is if you advanced the date before - in that case, you need to advance it even further.

Thanks for the reply guys. But was just wondering whether there is combination of brand and place to get the update. Like if u have Orange branded and u need to be in UK or something like that. (Coz I m in India, Strangely Indian versions have already received the updates)
FYI I have advanced the date to August..!! Still no luck :-(
If I read the numerous thread correctly, Orange UK users with carrier-crippled handsets don't see the OTA update at all yet. Someone correct me please if I'm wrong, though.
There is already a thread ** Official 2.1 UK UPDATE Thread ** .
Keep posts in the same area regards to this update then everyone can find it.

Yeah. Its true that they have not released the update for Orange Hero's. But I have seen threads where people did mention of receiving updates for Orange Hero.
So was just wondering
Hey folks, novice user here.
Quick background: I've had the HTC Legend for over a year now, it's on the Bell network however I unlocked it the first day I had it with a $5 unlock code deal from RedFlagDeals so the phone is UNLOCKED. I've put SpeakOut! SIM cards into it, it's on a Bell one now, etc.
The thing is, I've never, ever updated the software on this thing, at all. It's on whatever basic firmware came in the HTC Legend box to begin with. About phone says: Firmware Version 2.1-update1, Kernel Version 2.6.29-9e497, Build & Software Number 2.02.666.3
So in a nutshell, can somebody help this novice user get the latest and greatest onto here? I also would like to wipe out all my contacts & account infos etc. and start from scratch
The links and acronyms are all very confusing for me since I'm just trying to learn this all at once, so any help would be greatly appreciated. I have subscribed to the thread so I will get replies instantly!
Thanks in advance all!

do as he said then what you want to do is install this rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=866849
basically becuase bell hasnt released an official 2.2 update you have to downgrade your legend (yes counter productive it seems) then root it(jailbreak it) so you can install custom ROMS which is basically android 2.2 plus lots of extra tweeks
New Bada 2.0 roms and a Mango release this week.
This is what they said 3 hours ago. Maybe it is i8700xxki1..what do you think about it?
If so, really thanks to Samfirmware
Can you post a link or a screenshot to where you found this info? I'm watching samfirmware posts on twitter and saw nothing about a new windows phone firmware release. Thanks
Its on facebook
Sent from my OMNIA7 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
After the bashing session topic below, it would say much about their character if they do.
Can't wait for no more. Very eager. Hope hidden wifi issue will be solved in the next generation....
It might be official version which will be provided by Samsung... via Zune.

yeah, rumours are that it will be out oh thursday
According to me it is KI1 and it has new radio/firm/boot as kh2 with the "only" difference it has official Mango and no brand. Really hope so. Thanks again SamFirmware
EDIT : i can see no more the post on facebook. Can you? I think they cleaned it
Edit 2: Official answer by SamFirmware "Moderator post to fast something. Communication problem. That why we removed. Sorry." No ROMs coming this week. Thread can be closed.

Communication problem? Maybe some English lessons would help them cause I can't make any sense of what they said there.
so, we will see!
Their English is not one of the best, but please try to understand. English is difficult for everyone who comes from all the countries except for uk/us/australia etc...i understood everything they said so we don't need to insult them.
Anyway the final mango ROM is coming in 2 days via zune. Why not just wait for it?
That is not a rom. First of all a rom contains new firmware/radio and bootloader, the "thing" that should come in 2 days is an "update", Mango 7720.68. Secondly Samsung said one month ago that before Mango update they would have released a firmware update to let us receive Mango. Before that we won't be able to get Mango, so I think we will have to wait for long time yet..
just think a second, all the people that don't know this forum and are not able to flash the phone how do they could update, the official mango release for everyone and every brand of cell phone will come through Zune
brands like samsung...htc...they have the rtm and customize it for their phones then they send it back to ms and will be released through Zune

Radio and bootloader ARE updated through imageupdate, check package MODEM - it contains both radio and bootloader.
One would assume that they would make one big update containing all of this stuff - Omnia 7 can receive Mango update, we already tried it with the XXKH2 ROM's .pks that was with it. Update through beta to RTM and deploy that PKS to install the OEM part of the upgrade. Worked fine.
So you are saying that omnia 7 will have Mango even without drivers update right? I have KC1 now i hope this is enough to get Mango
it's good to see someone from samfirmware here.
I would like to ask one question regarding samfirmware website.
Why is there no direct way to find windows phone roms?
When you go to toolbox section, and firmwares, there you can only choose bada, symbian, windows mobile, but no windows phone.
Where do you guys put all the latest wp7 roms?
Windows Mobile is the same section als Windows phone 7
15.09. and no mango ?
It drives crazy.... Where would our mango be??????
Kinda lost, still don't fully understand WP7. I bought the phone a few weeks ago with a Mango Beta installed on it. Someone brought it to my attention that when the legit Mango comes out that I won't be able to update to it. How can I get my phone to where I can update it when the official Mango release comes out? I have searched this but I'm not sure if reading on a different phone forum makes a difference. And people answer this question in different ways so it's a little confusing. Thanks guys!
First thing to do is check which version of the software you have on your phone, settings - about - more info.
If you have an OS version number greater than 7.0.7392 but less than 7720 you have a beta build of the OS and you wont be able to directly update the OS to Mango. This is because when the beta version of the OS was loaded it took a backup of your phone for you to return to when the official update was released. The backup is keyed to you device ID and means that a backup from someone else's phone wont work on yours.
However there are methods that will allow you to update to the RTM version of the OS at this link HERE or HERE but be warned that the update that is coming out in the next couple of weeks will have the extra drivers and tweaks that are specific to the DVP from Dell.
If you don't feel confident with that, you could try getting the person you bought it from to restore it back to the old version so that you can receive your update, or phoning dells support (Ouch!)
Looks like there may be an official way to install the final Mango without rolling back to NoDo first:

Bummer... wish I had known about this "Friends n Family" update last week before I restored Nodo. (Stupid rumors!!!) It's like a totally different phone. Here's hoping the update is coming soon.
That's awesome! That looked like such a pain that I was probably going to stay on the beta lol.
Awesome, I'll make a thread with precise steps so people may see it and finally get our DVP's fixed and updated!
