I can confirm an update was offered to my dad's DHD as well, in The Netherlands. It seems to have broken sms notification. Might be fixable by toggling the settings twice, not checked that yet.

I didn't get the update, as I'm running Android Revolution.

[Desire HD General] Diamondback:
Just for Warning... Do __NOT__ install this if you are rooted/whatever.

Maybe you will be locked just like last time (1.72).

Download the Update, do NOT start it and copy it from your SD.

Upload to any filesharing service and share the link.
[Desire HD General] Hakimy:
guys it's 2.2 with arabic support.people with desire hd a9191 might see it but it isn't 2.2.1 it though some people said that their desire hd has a better a performance after updating beside the arabic support but you can't root this one easily.some people managed to and some struggled.maybe it's a mix between 2.2 and 2.2.1 :P

Hello from ireland!

From reading the carrier forums it seems that this update causes problems when you have HTCsense.com account signed in on your phone. CPU stays at 100% etc... however those who dont have the htcsense account on their phone are seeing a huge battery performance increase!

still no update for me though! :(
[Desire HD General] sromer:
Any information from HTC about the update ?
[Desire HD General] abelgs:
i dont see nothing about this in htc site!

in others foruns i saw something about cpu gain 10/20% of efficiency.

i dont install the update yet(i dont know if i can update using 3G internet, i dont have wifi at home :( )...

[Desire HD General] micqutiasol:
hi,

i think this update ment for Middle East users only as it comes with Arabic suport, i got mine this morning. i can say that the phone respond quicker and no logs even with the usb debugging is unthick (i think they already fix that one) and battery last long also from 15 - 24 hours already. my dhd is from ME
[Desire HD General] EngAziz:
I have the update

I did download the update (Android ver. 2.2 ; Software # 1.83.415.4)

but can't install it (my DHD is rooted)

it crashed when restating the phone (in visionary+ I did the "unroot now" option)

Please Help
[Desire HD General] UpInTheAir:
Did you backup before the update?
[Desire HD General] EngAziz:
no I didn't backup

why do I have to? will all the data get lost?

it's the same 2.2 only adds some improvements

(now I'm downloading Titanium Backup)
[Desire HD General] UpInTheAir:
It is possible data can get lost or corrupted in any flashing process, so best to use ROM Manager and CWM Recovery to backup your own ROM first, Titanium Backup or My Backup Root / Pro etc can save all those apps apk, data, and if rooted, sys apps & data.

They will save backups to sdcard. After that, copy entire sdcard to pc for backup, just in case the sdcard needs reformatting (corruption / partitioning), you can then copy everything back later if you need.

If you try flashing a new ROM and get stuck in a bootloop, you could then just use CWM Recovery to recover from a backuped ROM.
[Desire HD General] Goodm7sn:
so u think that european unbranded phones will never get that update officially (without flashing it manually through CWM) ???

in my case , i need proper arabic fonts on sites and apps like facebook on my desire hd as it shows letters disconnected now and this update helps.
[Desire HD General] EngAziz:
UpTheAir many thanks

I finished from Titanium Backup (Q: dose data = phone numbers and SMS?)

now I'm on ROM Manager and CWM Recovery (it took me some time to figure what is CWM :D , DHD is my first Android phone)

now I'm backing-up the system and will transfer it to my hard-drive

then I will try updating using ROM Manager
[Desire HD General] UpInTheAir:
You can do a backup of your current ROM from within ROM Manager, or reboot into CWM Recovery, (maybe advanced) and backup it from there, saving to sd card. I think ROM Manager can install only supported custom ROMs such as Cyanogen ROMs, but not too sure about the official patch.

I did read somewhere on LeeDoid thread he may be looking into trying to put it in his next build (not 100%). Check and keep an eye on the thread there too. Has been a few asking about it.

With Titanium or My Backup Root, I made backups of all apps and data (including sys apps) backing up contents on pc, flashed Lee's ROM (format sd card + ext3 partition) with a2sd+ patch, boot. Copied everyting back from pc, reboot. Done! All previuos settings there and apps with market link. No issues at all.
[Desire HD General] markerpen:
DHD is also my 1st android.

Is Rom Manager = CWM?
[Desire HD General] UpInTheAir:
They go hand in hand. I'm sure the CWM recovery can be download & installed through ROM Manager and manually too.

Have a read of this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=639153

The Dev, Koush, has an external link as well on page 1. I'm sure that thread could explain better than I ever could.

Beware though, a known issue; phone will boot into CWM Recovery while charging when phone is powered off. Nothing can be done atm. I don't really mind.
[Desire HD General] toolbum:

[Desire HD General] vicino:
Im in Kuwait atm, but i don't think this update has anything to do with your location.

Maybe it has to do with model number? HTC DHD A9191?

DHD Update

I also got the System update;

Using HD A 9191,WWE,unbranded.Location Turkey.

But the strange part is after 20 hours of update all of a sudden the keyboard layout changed by itself,including the language as well....

Now the only available Language Options under the Language&Keyboard aka Locale are some Arabic selections and English choices are divided to;

Bahrain,Jordan,Kuwait,Lebanon and Qatar.....

No choice of English or any other INT keyboard.....Stuck at Farsi,or say Arabic.

Any ideas?

DHD significantly showed positive improvement on speed and especially on battery consumption,Youtube is flawless...

Where as the dictionary stuff is also only about Arabic to English,nothing more.....

Any ideas on installing INT Keyboard?

Tried Market to install keyboard,dl'ed the various keyboards,chose them through Language & Keyboard menu but still the DHD insists on Arabic......
[Desire HD General] abelgs:
I've tried to update right now and I didn't make it.

Where exactly were you doing before this, in Fastboot or Bootloader? What were you trying to do? Users / Devs here probably need more info to work with.

Did you do a full backup of the ROM with ROM Manager? If all goes wrong :eek:, can nearly always restore ROM backup via CWM Recovery -> Advanced -> Restore ...........
[Desire HD General] ghazi chawla:
yep!

i did checked through "checkin" method and the software system updates but it notifies me that my phone is up to date.
[Desire HD General] abelgs:
I had done the restore, its ok! But I'm sad for not able to update my phone :(

I was thinking instead of doing the official update, use the ROM cyanogemod ginger 2.3 or revolution hd! But i have not seen anything about htc SENSE on the rev-hd!
[Desire HD General] UpInTheAir:
I'm currently using LeeDroid 1.51 with Sense. :cool:

Check out the first line; http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=842802

Haven't tried any other Dev's custom ROMs yet, but so far extremely happy using this. I set a couple of profiles in SetCPU: Screen Off 245 / 422 SmartAss governor & OC 245 / 1228 SmartAss governor for general use. Followed some members tips on battery calibration after flashing ROM and alls good! Lee has a mini-site up and running now, and has faq and all downloads / patches there. Just follow the instructions step by step. :D

Read more that once, make sure you have all the requirements first. If unsure, don't flash! :eek:

Edit: Heard on Lee's thread he also looking into the update and if you need the Arabic support, maybe doing another ROM just for that. That was a day or two ago though.
[Desire HD General] mwatson:
I have the update available to me.

I was on 1.72 but downgraded to 1.32.405.3 last night. The new upadate is 1.32.405.6

I'm using an unbranded sim free on t mobile uk
[Desire HD General] Craptastical:
That's what I've had on my phone since before the 1.72 was released. So it's not new, but you're running the latest available OTA release.
[Desire HD General] BenRoark:
Well, my wife and I both have fairly new Desire HDs which appear to have come from the Middle East, as our locales are limited to Qatar, Bahrain etc...

We both got notified the 1.82.415.4 update, and both tried to install it. Her unrooted phone applied the update successfully. My phone did not. I have only ever temprooted mine via Visionary, and it sounds like a few of us (EngAziz, pepotiger) are having the same problem.

Anyway, here is the recovery log that was displayed after the update crashed. Maybe someone with a bit of actual knowledge (ie: not me) can make some sense of it. I would truly appreciate it.

[Desire HD General] leppie:
Looks like you removed the Stocks app. And it failing due to that.
[Desire HD General] BenRoark:
Yeah, but what a strange little way to check and enforce against rooting? (if that's what they're doing...)

Or maybe I'm paranoid and it's just that there was an update to the actual Stocks app...
[Desire HD General] leppie:
Not strange, and has been mentioned countless times before (pretty much every post that showed you how to remove them). Only yourself to blame here.

Next time try investigate a little before attempting stuff like that.
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
It's not a check for root, it is trying to patch a file that's not there so it stops, because as far as it's concerned there is something wrong with the ROM it's trying to update.
[Desire HD General] BenRoark:
Yeah, I did do some investigating, actually. I found numerous threads on the topic of stock files that are safe to delete, with that specific file cited within.

Didn't see a mention of it affecting OTA updates, though.

Thanks a bunch for the attitude though, eh mate.

[Desire HD General] EngAziz:
I got the solution

I did it

:D but I lost the rooting (S-on)

first : get the RUU file for your DHD

then install it on your PC and fallow the instructions

that will flash stock rom on your DHD

then update OTA file again

(lost the root but no problem I'm happy with the new update)

first back-up your data (contacts)
[Desire HD General] UpInTheAir:
It was already suggested in this forum, and also by one in this thread you needed to downgrade to 1.32 to get OTA update (or have 1.72+ (unrooted), and a little searching would have reavealed you lose root when updating to official OTA unless use a custom ROM.;) I think there's also a big sticky about it:rolleyes:

I remember upgarde to 1.72, and then none of my rooted apps would work (Droidwall, visionary, could not unroot either).

Please let us know if you do manage to get Eng S-off with official OTA :cool:

[Desire HD General] joooeyandroid:
...got the same update last week. was hesitant to update at first until an official "yes-its-safe" go signal goes out.:D but curiosity got me so i took the plunge. i positioned my dhd in a strong wifi signal area ( for an uninterrupted downloading), full battery juice (in case it needs more during the updating), backed up my sd in my pc, then pressed the ok to update. :eek:

...after a series of shutting down- turning on cycle and 10mins of heart pounding, mind sceaming 'what if? what Ifs???...' it updated itself normally. turned on with the new update like nothing happened.

...can confirm most of the changes everyone had, differs with each dhd handsets i think:

- youtube v2.1.6

- dictionary 2.0.111, only english to arabic to english---??? other language not available ???

- google map v5.0, 2finger map rotation

- amazon mp3 stock app removed, never used it anyway

- improved camera and video recording experience

- battery life now pushing to 3days from my normal 1.5-2 days use

- screen scrolling are snappier, only facebook lagged.

- no changes on my settings like wallpapers, ringtones, etc.

- sd contents are all intact

...loving my stock dhd even more. cheers!:)
