I updated it manually using ROM Manager but although it reads that my firmware is 2.2.1 it still wants me to install the update.

To install manually just go to ROM Manager and click "Install ROM from SD Card". Go to your download folder and select the update and let it do it.

As I said when you boot the phone will still want you to install the update but far as I can tell it is done without an issue so just discard.
[Desire HD General] makbil:
I got the update but my friend who is on the same network did not get it yet. I only use Visionary temp root, tried while rooted and unrooted, in both cases the update is offered.

The only difference is that my phone originates from France whereas his originates from the UK.
[Desire HD General] kuldvee@gmail.com:
OTA shound not be full ROM or is it? I could try to flash it thru recovery or ROM Manager but something tells me that it is not right way?

Downloaded OTA is only 41mb as ROM-s are usually 100-250mb sor far as i have noticed.
[Desire HD General] makbil:
WWE_1.32 ROM is 292 MB so OTA is definitely not the whole package.

I'm going to postpone the update until the root situation is solved.
[Desire HD General] chamarthi:
is this update only for european users?..i don't get it..if the firmware needs an update why not do a global release? .. btw..any idea when does SEA (south east asia) get's the release?..Singapore in particular..Thanks!
[Desire HD General] ResortAnthem:
@chamarthi: there was a post a few pages ago that said the update is for european users only. i'm using starhub and just checked, no updates.

it might have been that the european carriers' phone was using an older firmware and thus needed update while ours is the updated firmware. just my 2 cents :)
[Desire HD General] v6kgang:
Guys,

I received the update. am from India but the phone is from NL. may be that explains y i got the update.

No difference at all with the update wrt performance...will give some time to check the battery. Of-course Root gone.

Quadrant manages a 2000 on stock. before update it used to be 1800-1900.

Guess there is a RAM Management of some sorts...my Free Ram bumped a 50 megs after the update.
[Desire HD General] olivierlee:
I'm in Australia and got the phone from the UK. Still no updates.
[Desire HD General] Dyonas:
Nothing offered here on T-Mobile UK. I'm really surprised that the update was pushed out to other countries and not the UK yet. If anything I would have thought the UK would see it among the first few countries.
[Desire HD General] olivierlee:
I got that http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8076202/OTA...1_32_405_6_release_1632939lowfu0y78jktpp2.zip on the dev forum. Thanks to segelfreund.
[Desire HD General] lare:
Hi everybody!

Mine is bought in UK & using the device in Finland. - no update available...
[Desire HD General] darkblue68:
just installed....

I loose 40% battery in 1 hour !!!!

HAs anyone this problem? My battery life was very good before the update.

It's the android system who is killing my battery.....

Has ne1 an idea?

Thanks.

Merry Christmas
[Desire HD General] hamdir:
do you still have clockwork manager?
[Desire HD General] jorjino2000:
Merry Christmas!

Yes, I lost also too some % of my battery, but think that it is normal for process of upgrading the system.

It will be more fair to check battery performance after next charging.

Regards.;)
[Desire HD General] brokensocialsteve:

Unbranded on vf in the UK.
[Desire HD General] Dyonas:

Will temproot be possible with this update?
[Desire HD General] robmob66:
In UK and update was showing available from this morning. Updated successfully on stock everything o2 handset whilst charging.
[Desire HD General] hamdir:
i just applied the OTA using clockwork recovery, i renamed it to update.zip and moved it to the root of SD, and used the apply update.zip feature

clockwork recovery installed it minus the new radio and the new kernel

WIFI isn't working and for some reason videos are not playing

root is gone, but i still have both ENG SOFF, Radio SOFF and Clockwork recovery

does anybody knows how to extract the kernel from the OTA file?
[Desire HD General] robE9:
I had mine in charge and was ok :P
[Desire HD General] andreasy:
Ok it was just released but mine wasn't automatically detected. I had to check manually although I had the option to automatically check. I wonder what the check interval is. Shouldn't it be a push update?
[Desire HD General] MrKaon:
I've got it this morning, Android version now is 2.2.1
[Desire HD General] japester36:
Got it too, this morning on T-Mobile in the UK. Unbranded phone.

Nice little Christmas present, even if I don't know what exactly is in it!

[Desire HD General] SupremeBeaver:
Apparently not.. have you applied the update?

I'll hold off until this gets ported to Leedroid or something.
[Desire HD General] olivierlee:
Got it too.
[Desire HD General] fraz1776:
Just ran the update on mine, I was running a custom rom and the update is stuck on the screen with the little android due and the exclemation mark triangle, is it still applying the update or have I broke my pjone? What should I do?
[Desire HD General] hamdir:
i had eng S-off + Radio S-off

i downloaded the OTA zip file, renamed it to update.zip and moved it to the root of SD, and used the apply update.zip feature in clockwork recovery

clockwork recovery installed it without the new radio and the new kernel

WIFI stopped working

so i just flashed the original kernel (boot.img) from the 1.72.405.3 RUU, i got wifi back! i also flashed the new radio.img

so now i have 1.72 + wifi + eng hboot + CWM + new radio only thing left is to get root back :D
[Desire HD General] ErMeglio:
Guys, I'd like to update, too. I tried the way I am (s-off and rooted, (now) supercid) and I had no chance (stuck at the esclamation mark). So I've read something more and I was following the guide here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10056935&postcount=27 to try to maintain root and have all the stuff of the new OTA working. I came to the point I don't really know if flashing a rom.zip coming from the RUU does or doesn't delete all the content of my phone. Can someone give me a hint, please?

To be sincere, I'm not particularly interested in root / recovery ecc, but I'd very much like to maintain them and have all the new sw, together. I think that's we all want here and seems like there's a way, but I miss this detail of the content of the phone!!! Thanks for who may want to help :)
[Desire HD General] hamdir:
flashing the rom file from the RUU will remove your eng soff and Clockwork recovery

best method is the one i mentioned above, i have 1.72 fully installed and working with eng soff and clockwork recovery

only thing left is to get root back
[Desire HD General] rhtizzy:
Standard issue from Bol.com (next day delivery for those interested) in the Netherlands, unbranded, unlocked, running on stock ROM, using telfort/KPN. Did manual search and update appeared immediately. Applied update, whole process took less than 10 mins total, including download, install, rebooted twice in the process. Lost some settings like notification soundset but otherwise everything seems to be working as before, no increase in RAM, no Quadrant improvement, no sound boost.
[Desire HD General] tony_reilly:
Holy ****, my Cpu usage is not dropping below 100% since this update. Used to be done. Tried over night, not doing anything, with the Debug enable, and didn't drop below 100%! WTF?? Even tried for 6hrs with the debug disabled and still no different!

Someone help, please!
[Desire HD General] SupremeBeaver:
do you also have radio s-off ,cid-1111, etc? I have those as well as eng s-off after you suggested i get those yesterday in this thread.

nvm just found out that leedroid's next update will have this update included so im happy :) Just need to wait..
[Desire HD General] l0w:
Same here cpu running at 99% to 100% constantly since update. Battery draining at 1% every 1 - 2 minutes. How do I go back to prior version??@?
[Desire HD General] hamdir:
yes i still have both s-off since applying from clock manager prevent the over writing of hboot and recovery, kernel wont update so wifi will break but you can later flash the new kernel

i am attempting to get root, if it works i will write up instructions
[Desire HD General] robE9:
tried to enable usb debbuging ?
[Desire HD General] tony_reilly:
Yep. See my post above, tried it on and off, no different!
[Desire HD General] ATGardner:
how to return to stock recovery?

I have DHD sim free I bought from France (though it seems to be from Spain originaly, with English (Spain) as the default language).

I have installed clockword yesterday, after getting permroot with visionary+, and got eng s-off (I think). Today I also got the radio s-off.

Whenever I try to perform the update, I get stuck at the android exclamation mark. What should I do in order to get it to work? I don't have to have root, or even s-off, at the moment. If I get back to stock recovery, will it be just like a completely new phone? no root or s-off of any kind? And how do I do it? which RUU should I try to flash to? And how do I flagh - from inside the clockwork, or from the recovery console?

What are the risks of just running the RUU exe from my pc? Will I just lose root s-off, but the phone will work as before? Will I lose all my synced accounts? Will I lose my data? My apps?

I have just performed nandbackup (I think I have - I went to the boot loader with volume-down and selected backup) - is that enough to backup in case of any upgrade failure?

Thanks for any tips you can offer me, or direct me to online guides.
[Desire HD General] hamdir:
did you have superuser before?
[Desire HD General] ErMeglio:
Mmh you're right, seems like the actual aim of that "guide" is to have the new rom, so actually no root, s-off, nor clockwork, but all this being able to revert back to the older rom if the newer doesn't get root. This way I can use the latest stock rom and have root anyway anyhow if I need/want to later. Am I right? That would be my aim, but also being able to maintain my data. Also, I perhaps explained myself bad: I would not flash with RUU exe, but take the rom.zip unpacked by it and install it normally renaming the file to PD98IMG.zip and putting it in the sd. Would it work? I still think it would not, because seems like it would 1. delete all my data; 2.I don't see what I've changed from the OTA way to make it "like" the actual status of the phone (so eng boot, psfmod recovery installed)!!

Hope I've explained myself this time, thanks for your help!!
[Desire HD General] robE9:
Tried a factory reset? i know that it will delete everything but i guess it`s the only way, or try to contact HTC support.
[Desire HD General] ruffleader:
Does anyone or can anyone take the zip file from their SD card and upload it please? I did the update but it destroyed my WiFi and in general things didn't seem right but I couldn't restore back to any other version than 2.2.1 so I flashed using a WWE ROM but it doesn't read updates.
[Desire HD General] hamdir:
success i have root access :)

i will write up detailed instruction for how its all done

tonyreilly@gmail.com the reason i asked, the new update breaks superuser so it keeps trying to request root maybe its the reason for weird cpu behavior
[Desire HD General] tony_reilly:
Don't think so. Never rooted the device or anything. Very annoying that this was supposed to make things 'better' but has made it infinitely worse!
[Desire HD General] tony_reilly:
Think it's gonna have to be that! :-(
[Desire HD General] l0w:
I went into applications management and tried to force stop anything i was able to. This brought my cpu useage down from 99-100% to around 20% ...not sure what the offending app was as i stopped several.....
[Desire HD General] CyberTod:
Hamdir, can you explain how did you flash the kernel after the wifi broke, I got to that step and don't know how to do it. Also about rooting you mentioned :)
[Desire HD General] ATGardner:
trying to use hamdir instructions -

hamdir - I just want to make sure I understood correctly

Right now I have ClockWorkMode Recovery 2.5.1.3 and permroot using visionary+, also used Easy Radio tool v2_1 to get Radio s-off. I think I have the other S-off as well (eng?)

My CID currently is HTC_304 - do I need to first get it to the super CID? how?

1. get the OTA_Ace_HTC_WWE_1_72_405_3_R2-1_32_405_6_release_1632939lowfu0y78jktpp2.zip file and rename to to update.zip

2. put it on the sd root folder

3. go into recovery mode (restart+volume-down -> recovery)

4. select apply update.zip to flash the ota

5. unzip the RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.72.405.3_R_Radio_12.38e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_release_161342_signed.zip file and get the boot.img from it.

6. how do I flash the boot.img?
[Desire HD General] hamdir:
i flashed it like you flash a radio

- Extract the boot.img or radio.img file to the /tools folder of your Android SDK

- Reboot your device into bootloader mode and select fast boot mode (select restart and keep holding down volume down + power, never mind the stupid vibration)

- From an elevated command prompt, browse to the /tools folder of the Android SDK

- Once in the /tools folder, type (without quotes) "fastboot flash boot boot.img" or "fastboot flash radio radio.img"

- Wait until the send and write operations are completed (this may take a few minutes)

- Reboot your device

i've attached the supplied kernel in this post

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10057455&postcount=52

i will write up a guide with all the needed details because its working in full for me now with working root

only issue: its much slower then buzz kernel v1.0.6 :rolleyes:
[Desire HD General] ATGardner:
I have put the OTA file I received in here. Hope it helps someone

It 'looks like' this update gives better pictures. It 'seems' that setting the sharpness at -2 isn't necessary anymore.

Anyone tested the camera/camcorder with 1.72 ?

I can not install the latest update, when the phone restarts you will see just a warning triangle with the anroid mascot in front of it. But nothing more happens.

I have the original ROM but with ENG S-OFF, Clockwork recovery and ROOT.

Any ideas?

People have asked this about...every page of every thread about the latest update?

[Desire HD General] hamdir:
ok i noticed the following improvements

- widget clock flip animation no longer gets stuck

- 720p doesn't lag so far

- better h264 playback the slight stutter is gone

- very snappy after it stabilizes

i will test without usb debugging on to see if they corrected this

no battery or cpu issue with me, maybe those with this problem have a broken update or didn't install the new radio?

Hotmail ActiveSync with HTC mail client

Hi,

Does the OTA fixes the HTC mail client issue with Hotmail ActiveSync ("Failed to create the account. Please try again later.") ? The last OTA for the EVO 4G fixed that.
[Desire HD General] tony_reilly:
I think the reason it's "very snappy" is cause the CPU is constantly running at 100% / 1ghz. It's not stepping down to save battery. This could be an HUGE issue and kill the battery. Lets see what HTC do!
[Desire HD General] mancuk29:
Yes can now setup and it works about time :)
[Desire HD General] robE9:
@tony: that is incorrect, my cpu for example now in idle is at 245 mhz :)

I don`t know, i find it a bit laggy sometimes....especially when scrolling through market or internet.
[Desire HD General] indie13:
People with 100 CPU please try this...........

I too had 100 cpu after the update i couldnt work out why but i think i may have found it.

I use a task killer (lets not debate that) and i had some tasks set to ignore. I looked through the ignored list and un selected the sense related tasks. I then used the task killer to kill each one (main 'htc sense', sense background synch 'htc sense')

I also used the task killer to kill both HTC sense related synch tasks and it seems to have sorted the CPU issues. I've gone done from 100% all the time to about 9%

Can someone else try this to see if it is the issue?
[Desire HD General] bobbyphoenix:
Sweet. Just got my update. Orlando, FL USA.
[Desire HD General] tony_reilly:
@indie13

INTERESTING... Not sure what I killed (HTC Sense something!) but it seemed to do the trick!!

gone from 100% constant CPU activity, to 4-6%!!!! MADNESS!!

Gonna keep an eye on this one and see what the hell is going on!

CHEERS!!
[Desire HD General] zhamos_kh:
Thanks! That's very good news!
[Desire HD General] indie13:
No Problem.....maybe someone with some dev skills can shed some light on this, (still hoping that this is the fix) like you i will be keeping an eye on it. Let us know how you get on.

Updated fine here from stock everything, No cpu issue, Not found any improvements yet though either
[Desire HD General] eyeofthetiger:
Since i have applied the update. The sync symbol in the notification bar on top of the screen hasent dissapeared. Previously it would come on during sync schedule and then dissapear. What has happened? Anyone else notice this?
[Desire HD General] bobbyphoenix:
Same so far here too about the CPU. After the initial reboot I did it once more. No task killing, and my CPU is a steady 4.6%. It may just be me, but the colors seem deeper and richer. Probably just my mind playing tricks. I did however notice it's much smoother overall. A lot snappier too. I'm very happy.
[Desire HD General] SupremeBeaver:
try going into settings and "account and sync". I think from there you can see exactly what's syncing and stop it.
[Desire HD General] bobbyphoenix:
That did happen to me too. It was HTC Sense. I've been having issue with that for a while. I just unchecked "Sync HTC Sense", and the syncing circle went away.
[Desire HD General] indie13:
I think the synch icon being on is linked to the issue of the CPU being at 100 pc. So check your cpu if you see this. With mine, i tried turning of the synchs and they had no effect on the CPU going mad.
[Desire HD General] tony_reilly:
Will do, though kinda hoping I won't see that 100% thing again! :)
[Desire HD General] eyeofthetiger:
Hmm not sure abiut this update. I think i am gettng this 100% cpu issue and the phone seems more laggy. Can this update be reversed?
