2.2 is awesome

Super awesome, I was waiting for the Telus update

( not going to bother flashing anything until 2.3 )

The WI-Fi hotspot works like a charm, but gotta watch the data plan.

Overall, much faster.

I just have one small but rather annoying issue...it won't save my setting to download weather automatically every hour. It never updates, and each time I go back to the setting it is unchecked........aaaarrrrrgggg!

[Desire General] woweezowee:
For unrooted users, does your camera app now look like the image below?

Mine still has the pull down tab from 2.1 and not the transparent side buttons.

I did get in contact with HTC, one rep said that shouldn't be the case and asked me to hard reset, which I did, still nada.
[Desire General] sctcts:
woweezowee, I believe what is pictured in the image you posted is what the camera app looks like in an unmodified, "vanilla" installation of Android. Because the Desire is modified with HTC's Sense interface, the camera interface also gets HTC's Sense treatment (i.e. the pull down tab). I don't know what the HTC rep you were talking about was thinking, but maybe they didn't fully understand what you were asking. If your camera app now has an option to record 720p video, then it has been updated to 2.2
[Desire General] humaders99:
Hey I was wonderinng if this allowed you to unroot your phone and also removing the recovery? (Amon RA or clockwork mod) and also were you running a different rom when you flashed the ota zip?
[Desire General] PERSIMMONS:
Yeah, I think it unrooted the phone, any rooted apps (titatnium back up, rom manager, shootme) all didn't work when I installed 2.2. And yes, in fact it did remove Clockwork, when I accessed my recovery mode to install the 2.2 zip, it was just the normal blue screen. I was wondering where the hell my green clockwork went. However, the icon for Super Permissions was still in the App drawer but didn't work. So I re-rooted my phone.

At the current time when I heard of the update of Froyo for the phone, I was running OpenDesire. So yes, I was running a different ROM before I flashed the OTA zip. But I reverted back to 2.1 to install the 2.2 OTA zip. I wanted to see what was different about the official Telus 2.2 ROM.

Hopefully... that wasn't too confusing. It sounds all weird when I read it.
[Desire General] humaders99:
What do you mean reverted back to 2.1? was it 2.1 from original stock? or 2.1 opendesire version? if i were to flash it on top of my defrost 2.2.1 frg83 build would it still work?
[Desire General] PERSIMMONS:
Oh, sorry for my not-making any sense post. I was tired and out of it.

I didn't flash it on top of OpenDesire. When I flashed it, I was flashing it over the 2.1 original stock. And if you were to flash it on top of your Defrost 2.2.1 I'm not sure what would happen. I didn't try flashing the 2.2 over OpenDesire. I was playing it safe and flashed over the 2.1 stock.

So in short, I was running OpenDesire, then downgraded back to the Stock 2.1 and flashed the 2.2. -less confusing and sounds a lot better-

I got my hands on the Telus RUU, I'll ask my source if its ok to share right now or if i should sit on it for a bit so he doesnt get traced for a leak.
[Desire General] sctcts:
I'd love to get that RUU as well. Please let us know if you are able to leak it :D
[Desire General] TheLastOne:
How would it get traced back to him specifically? RUUs come straight from the factory ;).

oh my god mr. Ecitron you made the thread that solved my problem i've been throughly working on for 6 hours

YOUR THREAD NEEDS MORE TAGS

IT TOOK ME 6 HOURS TO FIND THIS THREAD AND IT WAS EXACTLY WHATT I WAS LOOKING FOR

forget about it now because you saved my phone!

omg i think i got some grey hair coming now. that was stressfull stupid updates
[Desire General] ennx:
It doesn't update from the zip file. I get Installation Aborted.
[Desire General] ecitron:
Which tag do you suggest? If it can help people encountering issues with the update, I will be glad to add them...
[Desire General] ennx:
So does anyone know why I can't update this Desire by any method?
[Desire General] sctcts:
If you could provide some information on what state your phone was in prior to attempting the update (e.g. rooted? stock ROM? brand new? etc.) it would make it easier to figure out what is going wrong. Also, let us know what you have tried so far, and at what stage the installation fails.
[Desire General] ennx:
The phone was rooted. I then put the stock ROM back. It also had 2.2 now it's 2.1. With 2.2, rooted the phone had no network signal. When I installed the stock ROM with 2.1 the signal returned. It's a locked Telus phone. I've tried the Telus method of upgrading as well as the method posted here of going to Recovery and installing the sdcard:update.zip.
[Desire General] sctcts:
Have you tried upgrading via the Telus 2.2 RUU file that was leaked? Link Below.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=829935
[Desire General] ennx:
Not yet, I'll give it a shot. I'm nervous about one thing. When the phone had 2.2, I had no network. I need the network for tethering. My work depends on being able to feed news stories by tethering. If I lose the network again I may as well through the phone in the garbage. I've read reports of people losing the network when they update. It happened on this phone the first time.
[Desire General] sctcts:
When you flashed your 2.2 ROM did you flash a new radio as well? I believe that you need to update the radio when you upgrade to 2.2 through unofficial methods since the older radios aren't compatible with 2.2. Without a compatible radio, the phone would not be able to communicate with the network. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong about this.

However, if you are upgrading using the OTA update, the renamed update.zip method, or the RUU, you should not need to flash a new radio, as it is included in the update.
[Desire General] antho_2000:
Thank god for the leaked RUU, OTA updates are nice but an RUU should be mandatory.

If your phone is not in working order and that is the reason for your update or use of the system software... how are you supposed to OTA (considering your an average user who has never been on any of these types of forums.)

RUU and OTA should be hand in hand. Telus is clueless. Bunch of Western Canada Hippies taking their decisions around a bonfire and acoustic guitars somewhere in British Columbia.
[Desire General] balla786:
Ok, I don't know who to turn to, so I'm hoping someone here can give me some guidance.

I'm currently using the Telus HTC Desire.

Phone Info:

Android: 2.3.3 (Gingerbread CM7 Stable)

Baseband: 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27

Kernal: 2.6.37.4-cyanogenmod

Hboot: Alpharev Hboot 0.93.0001

Radio: 5.11.05.27

My problem is that I've been having issues with the hardware. The USB charge port connector is somehow bent and makes the cable loose. I'm afraid one day it won't work at all to charge or maybe even break off. I'm still withing my warranty period, I would like to flash back to stock rom.

Now here's where my problem starts. I try to flash the Telus Froyo stock rom, and I keep getting usb error 171 - where the computer can't communicator with the phone, basically times out on waiting for bootloader on the screen.

I've tried 3 different cables, and two different PC's. All fail.

I have a feeling it's the connector that's the cause of the problem.

I managed to download the OTA_Telus_Froyo.zip from shipped roms. I need help as to going about flashing the phone via perhaps SD card? Is that even possible?

Thanks in advance!
[Desire HD General] combat goofwing:
well nearly the end of the first full day with a new phone and a new OS having come from a TP2 and win mob so here goes

phones is the best i have ever had fast, fluid feels good to hold and to use

android while still learning i have seen enough to see its way better than win mo

so for you seasoned android users heres my niggles and im sure they will be easliy sorted

hate not been able to close an app down i feel likeit may still be running all the time

hate that i now have all my facebook friends phone numbers in my contacts and birthdays in my calender

would like a quick toggle app to turn on and off things like wifi/ BT/GPS

still not sure if my phone connection is correct yet to see a 3G logo

thats all after about 4 hrs of playing around so its dam good

thanks for any help
[Desire HD General] noobdeagle:
there are toggle widgets for the desktp to enable and disable wifi, mob data, gps ect....

you can go to accounts and disable facebook calender syncing

google have an indepth document about how android handles multitasking i believe it will answer you questions but for the most part 'most' applications when closed get their states saved but the program shuts down but 'processes' continue to run. similar to windows

some apps however will continue to run untill they are idle for a set period of time or ram is filled such as the internet.

i cant be more specific on where to find things as i currently dont have any phone let alone android cause i sold it to buy the DHD :P
[Desire HD General] DarrenT:
1) If you are not using an app then it isn't running. While it may still be in memory it shouldn't be using any CPU cycles which would be what slows the phone down

2) Not used that feature, I imagine you can turn it off.

3) SwitchPro on the market is exactly this

4) that'll depend on location, you may only see H which is better.

Glad you are enjoying Android. Everyone always does.
[Wildfire General] Penguinsfly1:
I installed wildpuzzle and its not picking up my location correctly. On maps it says I'm several hundred miles from where i actually am and the clock/weather widget doesn't find me at all. If I turn on GPS maps can find me but the weather widget still can't. Is there a solution to this?
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
first of all, why did you create a new thread? if you used the search function or read through a few pages of the wildpuzzle rom thread, you would already know, like other users, that there is still this little problem. danne jo however i think has fixed part of the issue in the new version.
[Wildfire General] Penguinsfly1:
sorry, i did search but obviously not with the right words and also I have the latest version.
[Wildfire General] bubthezombie:
You lousy, miserable, jobsworth ****. The poor bastard was asking for help.
[Wildfire General] hans3103:
Hello for the past weeks i tried to install many roms some dont start other do. I like that people share the roms they make. The wildpuzzle rom would be perfect but the location problem is still not fixed(also the fix as discribed here is not working). The openfire rom and the CyanogenMod are very good but as far as I can see its not possible to make videos with the wildfire with those roms installed. So maybe some one can advise me.......
[Wildfire General] Penguinsfly1:
I have installed WildPuzzle 7 (the previous version) along with the Wildpuzzle V7 overclock kernel and that seems to do pretty much everything wildpuzzle 8 does except without some new apps. The advantage is the location works and so does the contacts (picks up 07 and 44 numbers as the same person). I haven't seen any major differences between the two versions other than that.

A friend of mine and me are trying to find a solution to disable Data Roaming for Virtual Network Providers (VNP). Here in Austria we have only 4 real mobile phone providers while we have a lot more virtual ones.

For example we have BOB which is a virtual network using A1 Mobilkom. To get a working data connection data roaming has to be enabled.

We think that we found a solution but we need to prove it.

You could help us if you post the result of:

adb shell getprop gsm.sim.operator.alpha

This is only for people who have data roaming enabled to get a data connection with their mobile network.

Please post like this:

Provider: your_provider_name_here
Value of gsm.sim.operator.alpha: <value> or <empty>

If the value is empty (no string) post <empty>.

Thanks!

After speaking with Samsung directly it was determined that "screen under the screen" is covered by warranty.
