You need 25mb of free space on your PHONE memory. Uninstall a couple of aps then re-install them when you're done.
[Desire General] fredfox_uk:
You don't have to remove the apps, just go into Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications.

From there you can select each app and move it to the SD card, if the app is able to be moved, not all are. There are a few apps on the market that will scan your installed apps tell you which you can move, I've not used any of them though.
[Desire General] blakey092:
Go to SETTINGS - APPLICATIONS. The ones that can be moved can be moved without uninstalling

I have rooted my desire but I am still using the orange rom will I still be able to see the update?
[Desire General] Zaphodski:
Me and my wife both acquired our Desires from Phones 4 You in May. Hers only just came back from HTC repair a week ago. Her phone can update, mine can't. We are both in Wiltshire (which I doubt makes a difference anyway) Possibly done by IMEI number as hers changed with the motherboard replacement..... ;)
[Desire General] Zaphodski:
I didn't perform the update on her phone last night as if anything went wrong I would be in deep do do if she didn't have her phone to go to work. So after finishing reading this thread (to ensure no one had reported a serious probem...) I decided to proceed with the update and....... your phone is up to date :confused: Obviously my first thought was that it updated itself during the day so I checked the s/w version number....... 2.1 :eek:

What the hell is going on..... :mad:
[Desire General] danprocter:
Quite a bit of a buzz going on over on Conorfromorange's twitter page. It does sound promising, so who knows... i'll keep hammering the check now button.
[Desire General] dpk:
Anyone else still waiting?
[Desire General] Yogimax:
Oooohhhh yesssss.......
[Desire General] vindicatedbliss:
Its been released!

I'm hitting check for update every 5 minutes
[Desire General] MichelN:
Not sure, but if you get it you need to re-root again.
[Desire General] ev0lution:
My thumbs are now sore from checking....
[Desire General] vindicatedbliss:
craziness

I'm at the point where I almost have never wanted anything else as much as I want to see my phone updating. Thanks for the fervour Orange and HTC.
[Desire General] jcskeet:
I thought it was just me that had lost the plot....

Why can't Orange just send it to all of us who keep phoning up and hassling them about 2.2, for everyones sake?:confused:

Ironically, I bet there are hundreds of Orange Desire owners with the update notification who had never even heard of 2.2!
[Desire General] dpk:
I was thinking... what color are your desires? Mine is the brown one and I'm still waiting
[Desire General] GodGift:
mine is black and still waiting. My GF's got brown and still waiting. It all depends on traffic on HTC servers now... Lucky when get into download ;)
[Desire General] dpk:
Kinda throws my idea out of the window then lol

HTC's servers must be pretty crap cause thats gotta be nearly a day now...
[Desire General] 0644hunt:
Still nothing. Arrrrrrr
[Desire General] Yogimax:
I never knew mashing a "Check now" button every 5 minutes (or shorter) could be so frustrating :rolleyes:
[Desire General] fabbers:
After the past week or so's comments from Orange about HTC i wouldn't be surprised if they're not exactly rushing it out to Orange customers.

Frustrating.
[Desire General] Kyrocera:
Still waiting here.

(checking now.......)

Yep still waiting. Check late last night and early this morning but still no go. :(

Oh well
[Desire General] kettledesire:
No joy for me either. It's really quite annoying!
[Desire General] dgattenb:
went home... went on my wifi network .. any updates??... check now... any thing??

I tried 3g on the pure offchance that orange need you to connect to 3g first (like they do with there broswer )

and ........

Nothing ....

in wales... no one can hear you mashing the update button
[Desire General] 0644hunt:
Still nothing what is going on!!!
[Desire General] olly230:
I got one of the first desires when orange released them and I'm still waiting.

(bristol)

I wonder how many people actually paid for monopoly or uno or bowling - is it really worth what ever they paid orange?

I would be nice if orange or HTC could give an idea of the numbers they are dealing with. 100000 handsets updating 25000 a day or similar, at least i won't keep on thinking that something messed up and I'll never be able to legitimatley get 2.2 .

FRUSTRATING
[Desire General] stevemartin1991:
im a rooted guy with 2.2 already using pays rom, just got offered an update, but its only 25.06mb it says it and android os update patch.enhanced multi gmail inbox and improved RUS keyboard layout.

im happy with my rom just now so just going to ignore this "update" i dont know what it is though hmm
[Desire General] randomelements:
I got it within an hour of seeing Conor's tweet that it was available (lucky I guess).

I am having an issue with the Wifi hotspot though - my laptop connects to the hotspot but there is no connection to the internet.

Anyone else?

Bought my desire back in April. My girlfriend got hers last week. She got update 2 days I go, I'm still waiting!! Grrrrr :mad:
[Desire General] blakey092:
Yep, same here, looks like orange have tampered with it !
[Desire General] olly230:
first in last to get the upgrade...

At least there's logic there. Working their way down form the top of the list of S/Ns. Would it really have killed them to sort the list ascending rather than descending :o

(i'm in the same boat - got mine in april)

Anyone know how i can get the update.zip from the htc servers directly?
[Desire General] ste1164:
As far as I am aware you can't get the Orange update from htcs servers.
[Desire General] danprocter:
How do you reckon it is being rolled out, I know its in batches but is daily? hourly? minutes? All I know is I NEEEDDD FROYO!!!!
[Desire General] Kyrocera:
According to http://twitter.com/OrangeHelpers

"No criteria. UK wide release available to all: mightn’t appear straight away due to the amount of traffic on HTC’s servers!"

Still waiting here.
[Desire General] Salieri_UK:
Dont trust Orange at all... HTC have probably said to them something like, "We're restricting access to a few handsets at a time, in order to deal with the traffic on our servers."

And the high up brainless PR drones at Orange have seen the word Traffic and Servers, and have come to the conclusion it's just traffic on the HTC servers that's stopping you getting the update, so keep hammering that button (possibly so they don't get a million requests that they cant action from people saying, ENABLE ME, ENABLE ME!).

No update here, Desire owner since May.
[Desire General] Jazd71:
Once again the stunningly poor service of Orange raises its head to frustrate its customers! I bet this Connor from Orange chap is getting flak from naffed off people, why the hell say its available when its seems its not happening as it should. Their servers must be zx81's! Ive been tapping the check now button ever since the announcement and nothing AAArrggghhhhh!
[Desire General] stats101:
Okay - we need to work our their selection criteria.

Possible ones could be:

length of duration with Orange

geography

age bracket

billing cycles i.e. those who have thier billing cycle during the latter part of the month will get updates later

hmm...

we need stats from those who have it already - and we can work on finding a pattern :o
[Desire General] shorty_blitz:
I think its a load of BS, I really doubt anyone has actually received the update for real!
[Desire General] Bilbo Fraggins:
I too suspect a **** up with no or very little people with the update.

Were the roll outs for the other networks the same??
[Desire General] n0ahg:
Been with Orange 90 months (ish)

Billing cycle 5th of the month

Loyalty upgrade to Black htc-desire 2 weeks ago

Received 2.2 on 21st

Edit: Location Newcastle upon Tyne
[Desire General] GodGift:
It's my 3'rd year with Orange,

Billing cycle roubd 15'th

Got Desire Black with second wave of stock they had, don't remember when

Live in London

and stillll waiting ;]
[Desire General] fabbers:
As I said, I think their recent blaming of HTC to divert attention from themselves has put them at the bottom (and unfortunately by default us) of their pile. I don't blame HTC but hope Orange learn that honesty is the best policy for their customers. I still don't think it's been released.

3 months with Orange

Desire black.

Still hoping.
[Desire General] stats101:
I'm in London - my billing date is the 18th. been with Orange over 6+ years. No Froyo yet. :(
[Desire General] Minos20vt:
Been on Orange for 6 or 7 years

bill date 24th

Bought an early April brown Desire retail first stock

No update

Just calling up orange to see when i'll get my update. going to use the 'I'm having issues with storage space' line to see if i can get it fast tracked. it's worth a try :D
[EVO 4G General] Sirchuk:
I've been playing around with the App Inventor for the last few days. I like it, it's fast, it's pretty easy, and I find it fun. The problem is though, right now you can't publish apps to the market.

Throw in the fact that you can't make very robust or professional apps with the App Inventor and I've been thinking of trying the more traditional route.

But where do I begin? I've got the Android SDK, Java JRE, and Eclipse all installed and ready to go, but that's where I'm stalled.

I've got zero programming experience. Should I pick up a book for Android development? Should I start just developing for Java and move onto Android later? I've got a few ideas for applications, some for businesses, some for users, some paid and some ad-driven. I've got the ideas, but lack the knowledge to implement them.

Even the official Google Android tutorials seem a little over my head, like they were made for people that are already knowledgeable in programming.

There is so much information out there, it's hard to find a good "Starting from zero" point / tutorial.

Thanks for the suggestions!
[EVO 4G General] engagedtosmile:
You're going to want to become experienced with Java and then move into Android.

There is some good information on the web. I learned some of the basics from this guys videos:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hl-zzrqQoSE

I also picked up a book thats called Head First Java that is supposed to be really good and noob friendly, with easy to remember examples and challenges. I am nowhere near experienced, but I have been doing research on it for a while.
[EVO 4G General] nenn:
Beginning Android Development
[EVO 4G General] smarcin:
I'd probably try Beginning Android 2 This edition covers Android 2.0+.
[EVO 4G General] engagedtosmile:
Those both require some experience with Java. You have to start with Java first.
[EVO 4G General] smarcin:
+1 on Head First Java. Several people have suggested it. Also, there was a thread where someone had posted information, but I have searched and can't find it. I will try again later.
[EVO 4G General] Sirchuk:
Thanks for all the input! I'll pick up a copy of heads first java.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] narkewoody:
My phone bricked weeks ago and just back from the repair store :(

Now, dear folks, could you help me to discover what really my phone is? 32A or 32B

The SPL says it is a 32B but with 32A radio (3.22.x), right?

SAPPHIRE PVT 32B ENG S-OFF H

HBOOT-1.33.2010 (SAPP*****)

CPLD-10

RADIO-3.22.20.17

Jun 2 2009, 17:27:03

And, the 'cat /proc/meminfo' reports that the total memory is 99M.

With these information, could you tell it is a 32A or 32B? Most important, now I want to download a new version of ROM onto it, what type of ROM (32A or 32B) should I pick up without bricking my phone again?

Thanks in advance.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ekie84:
In that case, your phone is 32b.and DON'T flash 32a roms or you will brick your phone...basically 32a is htc magic and 32b is my touch 3g..32a has a 288 ram and 32b has 192...power your phone off, then press back + power button at the same time until you see android on skateboard(press menu to power off your phone again)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ekie84:
Wait, you brick your phone and send it to repair? You can so that? LOL
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] narkewoody:
Thank you so much! I cleared my confusing. And, yes, I saw the android on the skateboard.

Now I want to burn my phone with a Froyo CM6-Minimou-4 image found at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=735841. As per you suggestion, I should pick up its 32B version zip file. If I do so, the 32B ROM won't have a problem when work with my 32A (3.22) radio? (Now I desire to know what is my currently running ROM, is it a 32A ROM or a 32B ROM? Could I get know it?)

Thanks again.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] narkewoody:
God! I successed! I reverted my phone to 32B radio and 32B recovery followed by burning it with the freash new CM6 32B version ROM, it works! And now i am running Froyo!

I did the reverting per Amon's tutorial found on the site. Thanks for everyone!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwiksand:
Hey guys,

I (without thinking) activated Google backup/restore a while back while wiping my phone and reinstalling a ROM or two. Now it likes to restore 60+ apps that I don't even want anymore every time I wipe my phone. Is there a way to wipe the stored google backup so this doesn't happen anymore?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itonohito:
Same question. I allowed google to backup my apps once, and now every time I install new ROM, I must skip Initial settings and don't set up WiFi, go to Settings -> Privacy and turn on "Back up my settings", then turn off "Automatic restore" and then back turn off "Back up my settings".
[Vibrant General] kdennie1334:
............
[Vibrant General] danr238:
This has nothing to do with the Samsung Vibrant. Maybe you oughta post on T-Mobile's forum or better yet give them a call;)
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
Can't you just turn roaming off??

If you are roaming a ton... isnt that their network issue? I dont understand....
[Vibrant General] dcam1075:
If you primarily use your phone in a geographic area that T-Mobile does not have service they may cancel your service. T-Mobile does not pass along costs for roaming to the end user, but it does cost T-Mobile a ton for roaming. If you just travel through an area without coverage no big deal, but if the bulk of your usage is on a roaming partners network they reserve the right to cancel your service.
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
^ I did not know that, I think when you enable roaming under the options there is a warning about "you may" incur fees costing you a lot of money.... I guess "may" being the key word. Good to know, thanks.
[Vibrant General] joshthewaster:
This may also work to get out of a contract. If you happened to be moving to someplace without T-Mobile service you can call them and let them know. I KNOW my brother got out of a contract doing this.
[Vibrant General] jz9833:
I understand why they are doing it, but that does suck.

I'll just list it as just another reason why I can not wait until my contract ends. Alot of people complain about AT&T, but honestly their service was much better than t-mobiles.
[Vibrant General] kizer:
Don't forget way more expensive too.
[Vibrant General] heygrl:
So you have a Vibrant, but don't like the service.. last I checked the ETF for T-Mobile is $200 or less, and I would be shocked if you got a Vibrant for less than the ETF on your existing contract: priorities, service before the phone!
[Vibrant General] designerfx:
Bingo. Sign two years spend a month 100% roaming and get out of a cancellation fee.
[Vibrant General] fragimar:
Use the unlock method posted in the development section and use an AT&T sim card.
[Vibrant General] talltexan:
So what are the reasons for the cancellation?
[Vibrant General] zaduma:
This is interesting.... I wouldn't do it because I like TMOB, however, could you force your phone to roam?
[Vibrant General] talltexan:
Settings -> Wireless network -> Mobile Networks -> Network operators ->Search now then select ATT

however it tells me your sim does not allow connections to this operator.... maybe they just don't have roaming allowed where i am .
[Vibrant General] zaduma:
Hm there has got to be a way to bypass this. Now I am intrigued....

If they would have just allowed it, I would have switched back and never thought of it again. Forbidden Fruit Complex.
[Vibrant General] talltexan:
let me know if you figure it out.
[Vibrant General] Shane_pcs:
There should be no way to bypass this. T-Mobile specifically restricts roaming in areas where there is sufficient T-Mobile coverage. This is done with the whitelist stored on the SIM card. This can be updated by the carrier, but its not something joe 6-pack can do easily.
[Vibrant General] JeremyNT:
Just send your SIM card to the OP, and let him leave it in his phone for a month. Contract terminated!

In all seriousness, taking the Vibrant to AT&T is probably a good bet for the OP. Too bad AT&T doesn't discount out of contract phones like T-Mobile does, though.
[Vibrant General] kdennie1334:
Haha. Just send me your sim and I am sure I can get it terminated. I use around 4000 text a month and maybe 1200 minutes a month and 90% of that is roaming on att.

I've been scouring the web for quite some time, but I can't find any examples of auto brightness being disabled programmatically.

This is how I disable that functionality all together.
