I wrote an e-mail asking for the update, and the reply is quite... useless?

Doing a "resumè" it's "would you like to know? Hell if you would, I'll never tell ya!!"

Translated with google translate:

________________________________

Hello ******* *****

Recently you wrote about the request for the update 2.2: Please note that HTC is considering to propose updates on some devices,

and is still analyzing the impact they have on the users experience.

In the vicinity of the launch dates of the updates HTC announce which devices will be affected.

________________________________

Actually I think they never read my mail at all, they should have some kind of "search keyword feature" and then the system will forward to you an useless pre-made mail.

Dave.
[Wildfire General] ChrBeck:
I contacted HTC yesterday too, but I talked to the German service, and they told me that they don't have any information about any updates for the Wildfire and that Google first has to tell which devices can be updated.

For me that all doesn't make sense, the specs are already available on the Android Dev Pages, and the Wildfire fulfills these specs, so I can't see anything that Google has to do to get the update ready.

For me it seems like nobody there has any clue and like nobody wants to find out what's up.

So we can just wait and hope.
[Wildfire General] SantiPL:
I sent message to polish service HTC and I received the same answer from them :D

We must be patient :D:D
[Wildfire General] davestone:
I think the bee will bzzz out our buzz xD

Actually it will be useless for HTC to release another phone so similar to the Wildfire if it will not bring nothing interesting, and it will the 2.2.

I think it will be a marketing decision

HTC Bee 2.2 mid-range terminal

HTC Wildfire 2.1 mid range terminal

In fact the wildfire price is going down in this period, it means something.

And the last attempt to sell most of the produced hardware with a new exclusive "moon silver" finish, can a way to throw away the wildfire from their depots.

Dave.
[Wildfire General] brilldoctor:
it must be almost done since the chinese rru has leaked
[Wildfire General] :
Possibly waiting for HTC update servers to finish rolling out all Desire froyo updates. 3 UK is the last in the UK and they rolled that out today I think.

Just wish they'd tell us!

Unfortunately, when they do tell us, some selfish uber-geeks use logcat to learn the direct download URL, them post it to show how clever they are, then everyone downloads at once, the servers crash, and HTC have to fix the mess.

Not really surprised they don't tell us!
[Wildfire General] webjunky:
probably need to wait till after first HTC phone with 2.2 is deliverd ( sold ).
[Wildfire General] daemonarch21:
i found this on other forum

"Froyo 2.2 update is expected end of October 2010"
[Wildfire General] Kositch:
I asked HTC as well and received better answer, but still pretty useless...

Dear Michal,

Thank you for your email.

Please see the official statement concerning the Wildfire upgrade below:

We expect to release updates for several of our 2010 models including Legend and Wildfire during Q3.

The HTC Wildfire already has the latest version of HTC Sense with the App Share widget and our enhanced HTC Caller ID. Music sync has also been enabled for the HTC Wildfire.

[Wildfire General] thehrushi:
I'm interested to buy a wildfire only if it gets 2.2 official. Custom ROMs is a possibility, but I won't try them until I'm in warranty.
[Wildfire General] Bikers:
exact same topic in the tattoo forum. we got the exact same answers there will be an update for some phones, you will find out then...
[Wildfire General] Alex_GP:
I sure do hope it will come soon. I want to see if it`s truly faster than 2.1.
[Wildfire General] rolks:
china version not faster, hope wwe version will be
[Wildfire General] andyback:
When its been 1 month
[Wildfire General] rolks:
roumrs on net say vodafone uk roll out froyo begining today, least so they say source: http://forum.vodafone.co.uk/topic/70962-htc-wildfire-android-22-froyo-update/page__st__20?
[Wildfire General] stavro:
why should there be a perf. diff. between china and wwe version. i guess its the same kernel and same JIT compiler ? is froyo really not faster then eclair on the wildfire ? any other opinions or benchmarks ???
[Wildfire General] ChrBeck:
At least WildPuzzle V8.0.8 with the original HTC kernel and Sense isn't faster than 2.1 and that configuration is nearly the same as the Chinese 2.2

It even seems a little more sluggish too me and it doesn't react as good as 2.1

So no, for me 2.2 isn't faster than 2.1.
[Wildfire General] demolition23:
The only chance we have for speed is to enable JIT by default in next releases.
[Wildfire General] rolks:
i think its sense what slowing it down
[Wildfire General] fifarunnerr:
Just give us the freakin' update, we're waiting for the update for months. Really, how hard could it be to roll out Froyo :'(
[Wildfire General] stavro:
dalvik JIT Compiler

so JIT is not enabled in these custom froyo roms ?

to my knowledge the new dalvik JIT Compiler should bring most of

the perf. improvements, executing apps, in froyo.

so then i have still the hope, that perf. will be at least not worser with the official froyo ;-)
[Wildfire General] JoNasty:
Does somebody know when this release would be released in Belgium ?
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
JIT is enabled in OpenFireROM

[Wildfire General] Frank C:
This is what I found on techrader (early Sept):

It's nearly Halloween and still no Froyo from Virgin; their technical team claim to have encountered problems with the 2.2 release given to them by HTC. Futhermore, Virgin technical claim to have asked HTC to send another update, which Virgin claim HTC has to get tested by Google... sounds like smoke and mirrors to me; can anyone verify this from a reliable source at Virgin?
[Wildfire General] Skye Menjou:
No word from any source.

HTC even claims they do not know when or if it will get an update(Mail from techsupport)
[Wildfire General] GéVé:
They released the Kernel on there Dev-site ! :confused:

It realy would be weard if they don't release the update ! :

so my main question is: why thre menu letters are so blurry, but the main boot image look's fine ??? :(:confused:
[Wildfire General] daemonarch21:
no blurry letters to me.everything is clear and fine ^^

i dont use any rom btw
[Wildfire General] Xinot:
So, you use only letters without rom? lol
[Wildfire General] daemonarch21:
i mean that i didnt change the default rom and letters are ok.i doesnt need brain to understand that ^^
[Wildfire General] anakhanjing:
I really hate it when i have to wait everytime there is new update. it happened to me when I use Nokia 5800. now I m experience it again with htc. I thought HTC will be different from Nokia. are they some sort of cousin? I m sick of waiting!
[Wildfire General] rolks:
what is new date to release? q3 over by september over by october over. next date by never?
[Wildfire General] HOAP:
There is no real business benefit in upgrading old phones. That doesn't generate any money for HTC.

I think it's a strategic decision to try to get people to move to the high-end products. The wildfire is after all a budget phone.

But whatever HTCs plan is it will just get here when it gets here if it ever does but as they have promised it will it probably will do just that.

And if you can't wait just go ahead and install a custom ROM and enjoy the capabilities of your precious phone.
[Wildfire General] fifarunnerr:
Translation:

@fifarunnerr: Yes, Froyo will arrive for the Wildfire, but the legend will get it first. Wildfire arrived not very long ago(summer).

HTC's awnser

Hi Guys,

Because im also waiting for the Froyo update on my wildfire i mailed HTC. This is the awnser. (translated from dutch, dont mind my bad english)

Dear xxxx,

Thank you for contacting us regarding the 2.2 update

We have no confirmation on whether your device is an update or not. This I can not indicate if and when he comes.

For more information please keep in touch with our facebook and twitter pages.

In dutch:

Beste xxxxx,

Bedankt voor het contact opnemen met betrekking tot de 2.2 update

Wij hebben nog geen bevestiging ontvangen over of uw toestel een update gaat krijgen of niet. Hierdoor kan ik dus niet aangeven of en zo ja wanneer hij komt.

Houd voor informatie onze website, facebook pagina en twitter feed in de gaten

Wildfire will get FroYo update.
[Wildfire General] nemuro:
Finally something solid.
[Wildfire General] brilldoctor:
Should be if you believe Mark moons
[Wildfire General] Contrarian:
I doubt it'll be upgraded due to the crappy processor and bloated SENSE. Hope HTC prove me wrong

Probably better to install a custom ROM anyhow.
[Wildfire General] :
My friend has a wildfire (I watch this thread to bring him news) and is getting mighty fed up with waiting for this.

I've recommended putting either Wildpuzzle or Villainrom ROMs on. I've already rooted his phone for him. Villainrom is the closest you'll get to stock sense rom. Everything seems to work too. Check out their site.

If you can't wait, it's worth a go. It doesn't have jit enabled, but it has a kernel allowing overclocking to 756MB. It'll be updated once HTC release their official source code.

Have fun losing your 2 year warranty and other faults a cfw had.
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
lol haha who needs warranty, im not dumb enough to kill my phone :p, rooted it the week i got it anyway.
[Wildfire General] cioconebunu:
You dont lose your waranty, just flash your original RUU and is back to stock.
[Wildfire General] Humper.GFX:
Yeah so if it gets a hardware failiure your dumb enough to belive they will get it on the warrenty. Chipsets can be defect and you can never be 100% sure.
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
nothing can stop me ;D, the only thing that can stop me is the washing machine :( and btw it's *you're, and no i will not be dumb enough to get it on warranty, because by rooting it you lose warranty if you haven't realised, and if the phone's hardware dies, IF it does, i'll most likely buy a new or better phone than this, now that i know how to use android properly. good day.
[Wildfire General] Skylordas:
how i can flash? i was thinhing then you flash you lose warantary.give me that flas link,guide how to use.
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
You flash the ruu using your pc. Go to shipped-roms.com/shipped/buzz to find your ruu which was your stock rom

Hi

I've just got a HTC Wildfire and just joined this forum, please don't shoot me!

My Wildfire is currently running 2.1, and I've read through this thread, and am a little confused.

Is 2.2 Froyo actually out for the HTC Wildfire in the UK, as in the HTC version, not carrier modified versions?

Thanks
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:

[Wildfire General] Alex_GP:
Well,at least this is some progress. I just hope they don't piss all over the Wildfire users and say "no froyo for you", then maybe my next phone will be a Samsung.....

Sorry for my bad, graphic language.

I downloaded RUU_Buzz_HTC_WWE_1.14.405.2_R_Radio_13.45.55.24_3.35.15.31_release_130814_signed

that number like i have now in stock so i need instal this or download with higher numbers and upgrade and use this to downgrade back to stock.

Sory for english and sorry for noobish questions.

Edit: Now i understand how it's works, but Angry birs dont work with RUU_Buzz_HTC_WWE_1.37.405.1_Radio_13.53.55.24H_3.35.19.25_release_151892_signed

Hardware failures happen all the tone.You would know this if you worked in IT.If my touchscreen/usb controller stopped working I expect it to get fixed.Remember kids, It's all made in taiwan.
[Wildfire General] :
The Wildfire will definitely be getting 2.2. It has already been released in China. It's what all the current custom roms are based off. The problem is that the Chinese version does not have the Dalvik JIT compiler. So it won't show you the speed 150%+ speed increase. Just the other froyo benefits. The custom 2.2 roms compensate for this by including a kernel that allows safe stable over-clocking up to 756MHz.

When the official wildfire 2.2 source code is released, the custom roms will be updated to the full froyo, and if you choose you can flash back to a stock kernel.
[Wildfire General] Gurdjieff:
Just the other benefits minus flash 10 :(

HTC announces Android 2.2 updates for Legend and Wildfire handsets

Better late than never

By Lawrence Latif

Mon Nov 08 2010, 17:17

SMARTPHONE MAKER HTC has announced that two of its mid-range smartphones will be receiving Android 2.2 updates shortly.

The firm said that unlocked Legend and Wildfire devices will receive the update to Android 2.2 "in the coming weeks". Those with operator locked handsets will have to wait longer, presumably while mobile operators 'tweak' the release to fit their marketing goals.

Look for wwe (world wide english) and -for me- only the right one worked, so try them out. (But im sure there are better ways to find it :) )

Not officially but you can get it using custom roms (if you don't know what they are - just wait for the official update). SOURCE: my phone is debranded

- Is it the OTA Froyo for the HTC Wildfire?

- Not at all.

- NVM then. :mad:
[Wildfire General] hydo1:
It has been released, it is listed at developer.htc.com so that you can download the source code there.
[Wildfire General] l1nuxfre4k:
That pretty much means that Wildfire will get Android 2.2.

Otherwise they wouldnt release the kernel for it on that site.
[Wildfire General] l1nuxfre4k:
haha i think that agent was smoking something :p

The official htc answer was posted earlier :p

if an agent sad something else its just as true as i would come up with it now.
[Wildfire General] nemuro:
Old news. Thanks for getting my hopes up.
[Wildfire General] Banned4Live:
ROM bases on original Froyo

So is there a ROM coming based on the soon to be released Froyo update for Wildfire? Or do we need to unroot it for that?
[Wildfire General] jowildfire:
No, it will unroot when you install though.
[Wildfire General] jcsww:
I wish it would just hurry up and come or or at the very least, a definite date of release. Once December rolls around, it'll be January, then February, March, etc.
[Wildfire General] jowildfire:
I know! An official date would be great! Im checking every couple hours, driving me mental...

[Wildfire General] ephbee:
i was informed yesterday by high level tech support at telstra, they are expecting an update feb/march 2011, and there is a possibility they may skip froyo and go straight to gingerbread 2.3.

waiting....waiting....waiting......:rolleyes:
[Wildfire General] Gurdjieff:
Isnt 2.3 need 1ghz cpu?

Anyway, legend's update started recently and according to some sources wildfire will be the next.
[Wildfire General] brilldoctor:
2011 - are you kidding?????
[Wildfire General] anakhanjing:
did HTC mean "update for wildfire available after all legend updated" (which mean we will have to wait longer), or "together with legend update"?
[Wildfire General] Banned4Live:
So if I install the ota update it will unroot and everything will be back to "normal" again?
[Wildfire General] cashisback:
yeah, that's what happened to me after the update we had about a month ago.
[Wildfire General] crni6:
Did Legend recive Froyo update???
[Wildfire General] rolks:
i found this russian info http://twitter.com/HTC_Ru/status/3097384666013696
[Wildfire General] phunctionist:
"Froyo for Wildfire will be available within a month. By 2.3 to Desire no information."
[Wildfire General] anakhanjing:
what the hell..everyone said the update coming the next month, after that month come, somebody said another month, after that another month, there is another somebody said the update will coming on the month after that next month. and this is the sixth times (the sixth months) I heard of this story. if this is keep on going, that means there is no update for us. why don't HTC just say it they don't give us froyo update?!!!
[Wildfire General] anakhanjing:
what the hell..everyone said the update coming the next month, after that month come, somebody said another month, after that another month, there is another somebody said the update will coming on the month after that next month. and this is the sixth times (the sixth months/version/source) I heard of this story. if this is keep on going, that means there is no update for us. why don't HTC just say it they don't give us froyo update?!!!
[Wildfire General] grognaz:
well this seems the to be the way to deal with customers for big companies. rather lie to them that they will get something somethime than telling them the truth....
[Wildfire General] stunno:
Yes the Legend 2.2 update came out at the beginning of this week. I've read that it is far from perfect tho
[Wildfire General] sandeep_dhameshia:
well, it was all myth. 1ghz is not minimum req, its just recommended. dont know if HTC will go for gingerbread but than there will be plenty of custom ROMs to try.
[Wildfire General] brilldoctor:
I would rather wait a year and have a stable release than wait a day and have a buggy release with no hardware support and no sense
[Wildfire General] anakhanjing:
same here mate. but then they should say that they will give the update on that date/specific time. not saying every month the update will come on the coming month. after next month, then they it will come out next month, over n over again..
[Wildfire General] brilldoctor:
I imagine they are encountering issues or want to endure the desire/legend rollout goes successfully
[Wildfire General] stunno:
They would get more moaning if they gave a precise date and missed it instead of a vague one
[Wildfire General] anakhanjing:
I don't think the update will come on few weeks, I bet it will be few months if there is an update. next month there will be another source pop up somewhere saying the update will come on the following month. and the same thing will happen on the following month. its kinda loop to me
[Wildfire General] nemuro:
Wildfire Froyo. Are we there yet?

Im sorry for my bad english...
[Wildfire General] Skye Menjou:
HTC UK says before Christmas. Well on Facebook atleast. Check it on Facebook.
[Wildfire General] anakhanjing:
..and on December, they will say the update will be on January.
[Wildfire General] bogicko:
well lets call them and find out.......heheheh

I have done a lot of work in building windows mobile roms. I now want to start building android roms as well, but am completly new to this.

I assume like windows rom you will need some sort of kitchen, a base rom etc. I do not know where to begin.

Can any body give me pointers. Eg were to download the compilers and were to get the base roms?

I have seen some sites out there to download the base roms but they seem to need a username and password to access the sites.

Any help would be appreciated. I have tried searching through the guides available but not really any futher on.
