You can debrand your device to clean Indian version using the RUU posted by xAutobot in this thread and a Goldcard (you can find a guide how to create one in the Index thread in the Development section). Then you will receive an update notification
[HTC Desire S] tarek zag:

Please help

Hi,

I received the OTA Update for my HTC Desire S tonight to upgrade to Android 2.3.5 and HTC Sense 3.0 and now my phone seems to be completely stuffed.

During the update, it changed to a black screen with phone icon and a RED exclamation icon. It stayed on this for quite a while and when it wasn't responding I pulled the battery out and now when I try and turn the phone on it doesn't seem to do anything. If I plug in the USB cable or power cable, I do not get a charging light. Holding down the power button and the volume down button does nothing as well.

Is my phone completely broken now?!?!

Please help.
[HTC Desire S] forever_8:
I have downloaded the update, when installing the screens turns black with a triangle containing an exclamation mark and the android logo, I am running a rooted basic ROM 2.3.3, any detailed steps on how to overcome this will be highly appreciated.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
You cannot install the OTA on a rooted ROM! That's why its messed up!

Do you still have access to recovery?

Hi. I unrooted my phone. Now my phone's stuck at the HTC logo screen and won't move forward. Is this normal? Does it really take a long time for the update to push through? :(

I have access to recovery, but I cannot recover or even restore. :(
[HTC Desire S] forever_8:
First of all many thanks for the prompt reply.

Yes, I have access to recovery, any suggestions?
[HTC Desire S] sdarshan10:
thx so much buddy...you really rocks...i did exactly what you told......just two doubts in my mind...have i voided my warranty by debranding although mine is not dependent on it....second will i have to reformat my gold SD card or i can use it as it is as a GOLDCARD......
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Yeah, from there you can choose to flash the pre-rooted ROM sense 3.0.

Wipe data, than flash it.

It's just the stock ROM rooted - nothing more.

It's available in Adidas' thread

[HTC Desire S] Kearns:
My phone wasnt 'rooted', and was running the standard HTC Sense.

Is there anyway I can recover my phone myself or will I have to send it away? The power button on the phone still does nothing, nor does holding the volume buttons down, and plugging in the USB makes no difference and shows no charging light.

DO NOT install this update would be my recommendation :)
[HTC Desire S] FuzzyBlacken:
You cant install OTA Update on a rooted Phone. Read few of the above posts!

In case you still want the update. You can follow one of the 2 ways

1. Install Custom Pre-rooted 2.3.5 + 3.0 Sense ROM (look into Index)

2. Unroot your Phone (which i did)

Check Post #926

P.S: I rooted my Phone again! xD
[HTC Desire S] khulay028:
help

Can you please help me, I was able to root my phone last night and also turned off s, when I checked for an update it says that my phone has an update available 2.3.5 and sense 3.0 , I downloaded the update , when I tried installing it the phone reboots , goes to HTC splash screen then , changes to a black screen , with a white triangle inside it it has an exclamation point, with a blue android icon, which does not do anything.

Chatted with HTC support and they recomended that I should factory reset my phone. then try to update again. Will the update woork with a rooted device? How should the update look like?

Thanks
[HTC Desire S] tpbklake:
How did you root and get S-OFF? Did you use the Revolutionary tool? If so, do not try to apply the OTA!!! Hopefully the you made a nandroid backup in CWM recovery before you attempted this, right? If so, you need to reinstall CWM and then you can restore your backup.
[HTC Desire S] Dav_prime:
Looks like HTC finally pulled their finger out for those unlucky enough to be stuck on 1.28

I received an update to 1.47.401.4 then after install a second updated to Android 2.3.5 and Sense 3 (version 2.10.401.8)

I am UK and unbranded with an O2 sim.

I got the update after settings -> about phone -> system software updates and hitting "check now"

[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
@cjward23, Excellent job. I'm PM'ing proxuser
[HTC Desire S] heavyhms:
I've also sent a PM to Adidas108
[HTC Desire S] :
For everyone posting about not getting the update just remember that HTC have a history of trickling out the release to limited numbers in the first few days in order to not overload their servers and also so that if there is a problem and they have to pull it then it doesn't cause chaos. Also if you are locked on a particular carriers own firmware they have to check and approve it before you get it, on Orange UK this can be weeks which is one reason I debranded.

Bottom line I got lucky.
[HTC Desire S] :
Added to my earlier post GPS performance has drastically improved now takes a few seconds to get a fix where before it could take 20 minutes.
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
Guys who get the updates - PLEASE POST YOUR REGION, AND VERSION NO. BEFORE YOU UPDATE. Thanks !!!

Till now, 1.47.401.4 is confirmed to get the update thanks to cjward23

---------- Post added at 07:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:28 PM ----------

Hey, i have an idea

For S-OF people, to get the update -

1) Download and flash pre rooted 1.47.401.4 ROM from here - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1183684

2) Use this code in the dialer to force update - *#*#2432546#*#*

Please post if this works.
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Hey andy, i just wanted to apologize for my snide comment earlier about my doubts regarding this update. I know i must have come across as a total douche.

Don't worry abut it, we have plenty of false dawns here. I am still surprised that there isn't an official comment from HTC that would have clarified things.

Hi!

I've installed a ROM about a month ago with Android 2.3.5 and HTC Sense 3.0 on my Desire S and everything works just great.

I couldn't wait for OTA update :)
[HTC Desire S] fbcyborg:
Hello,

what to do in case I've already S-OFFed and root-ed my phone?

These are my "settings":

Rom: Official HTC_Europe_1.47.401.4

Radio: 20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03_M

HTC Sense: 2.1

hBoot: 6.98.1002

Build: 1.47.401.4

Superuser: v2.3.6.3

ClockworkMod: 5.0.2.0

I hope it wouldn't be necessary to wipe the phone.
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
This is now in the PORTAL :D

---------- Post added at 10:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:04 PM ----------

Your rom seems correct, Dial this no. in the dialer - *#*#2432546#*#*
[HTC Desire S] fbcyborg:
It only appears the notification "Check-in succeeded" but nothing else happens.
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
Keep trying it, it should appear a few days later. HTC rolls out updates one region at a time, and doesn't want to blow it's servers. Wait, it should appear.
[HTC Desire S] kartikk:
im really looking forward to this :D

hope a custom ROM based on this is up soon :)
[HTC Desire S] fbcyborg:
Yes, I actually read about that in a previous post.

So this means that I have to wait that HTC releases the upgrade for my country too.

Many users in the forum discourage to install official upgrades. Couldn't be a problem that I have a rooted phone? It seems strange to me that such upgrade is OK on rooted phones.

Do you confirm that this upgrade doesn't wipe the data on my phone?

As far as I understand the command *#*#2432546#*#* is to force the upgrade, but shouldn't be visible automatically in the check upgrades section?
[HTC Desire S] heavyhms:
It's not available for Italy

Siamo un po' sfigati, ma confido che Adidas108 rilasci quanto prima una versione flashabile compatibile revolution (ma temo dovremo effettuare il wipe, oltre a dover caricare separatamene la nuova radio)
[HTC Desire S] Eclipse_Droid:
+1
[HTC Desire S] fbcyborg:
Thanks for the information! ;)

What is important here is to be aware of the fact that a wipe is necessary.
[HTC Desire S] heavyhms:
If you install ota upgrade over a rooted official rom with revolution/AlpharevX HBoot and custom recovery the update process abort and results in a white boot screen loop (you can solve removing ota update from download directory on microsd and reboot your phone). At this moment also the new hboot is not supported via Revolutionary: if you want to re-unlock the only way is to try a downgrade.

In definitiva, se vuoi mantenere l'unlock dovrai aspettare una stock rom pre rootata, altrimenti se non ti interessa il root devi tornare a stock e aspettare l'ota, ma potrebbe non esser più possibile sbloccare il terminale (al momento il nuovo hboot NON è sbloccabile via revolutionary o simili)

Ah, quando uscirà la stock pre rootata prima di flashare assicurati che sia disponibile anche la corrispondente radio, dato che negli zip flashabili da recovery sono separate ed è cambiata da quella presente con la 1.47
[HTC Desire S] fbcyborg:
I understand! It's better to flash a xda Sense 3.0 ROM! :D

[HTC Desire S] fasty:
What's the significance of the "1.47.401.4" part of the OT filename?

I'm only curious as to whether this OTA update is targetted exclusively at those who previously had the (troublesome) 1.47 version.

I'm still on 1.28 and oddly never received the previous OTA update to 1.47.

You can see where I'm coming from - hope that I will actually get this latest one!
[HTC Desire S] al89nut:
Exactly the same position. Mystified why I never got any of the previous updates (unbranded, unrooted, stock)
[HTC Desire S] Nexx:
Edit: Ignore, I patched it myself.

Can anyone who has installed this pull the build.prop for me?

The OTA contains only the patch and I'm not installing a stock ROM, then the OTA just for the build.prop =P

adb pull /system/build.prop

Thanks!
[HTC Desire S] masterl1983:
Really can't wait to see the first custom ROM from one of our DEVS based on this HTC stock ROM. The only thing which is then still outstanding is an official unlocked bootloader from HTC. Hopefully both will come soon!

Bug report!!!

yesterday I updated my Desire S with the available system update and it works really smooth and looks perfect. The problems occured this morning, when I started receiving calls: when trying to answer to a call a notification appears: "the process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. please try again" with an option FORCE CLOSE. After force closing the call drops, the phone unregisters from the network for a while and the registers again.

Amazingly, I never saw such a problem with calls from fixed lines, it occurs only when the caller is calling from a mobile phone (actually the history of the problem is too short to make such declaration, but anyway...).

Can anybody hint a solution? Or, alternatively, is there a way to go back to previous OS version?

Thanks

I downloaded it, renamed it to update.zip and moved to my sdcard. Then I followed the recovery procedure I'd found somewhere else, but it showed me the error that it couldn't get access to some file or so and then the phone rebooted. unrooted, unbranded - have to wait then, i suppose
[HTC Desire S] Adidas108:
do you have installed RUU 1.47.401.4 Europe stock rom or some other roms?

probably...i think that procedure will be like:

installed RUU 1.47.401.4 Europe stock rom or previous RUU Europe versions

then rename file u provided to update.zip

place on sd card root

and flash via recovery as update

i cant test this right now because i'm not at home.if someone can test and tell us hows going that would be nice.
