Still not sure which ROM to go for first?? any suggestions
 
Looks like T-Mobile have released an update (1.21.405.2).

The update fixes some minor bugs and changes some icons, not worth updating with if you're rooted. it also updates your software version and hboot which will already be updated after root anyway so no need again.
 
Just found this.

UPDATE:
It seems that the update is only available for the EU unbranded roms.

Changes reported:
- Updates bootloader to 0.80
- New radio image
- New youtube app with HQ option (1.6.20E).
- Fixed htc's weather widget (integrated into clock&weather widget) not knowing where you are (1.15.xxx just said the name of the country in some countries).
- SMS issue (from non-numerical senders) is resolved.
- fixed random contact showing when receiving operator SMS.
- fixes the voicemail bug for the French carrier SFR (short voicemail number used to call 911/emergency).
- Messages app now shows a count on the number of messages in the SMS inbox.
- calendar/contacts bug - unable to store contact's birthday - has been fixed.
- Long click on the menu button when in home screen now doesnt pop up the keyboard, like it uselessly did before.
- SMS reader does not show the little smiley androids any more - just the mere types.
- Exchange Company Address Book is now properly working. Was unable to use before the update.
- They have disabled the snooze function on the Optical trackpad for calendar events. This means that it is now possible to have the phone in your pocket without accidentally snoozing the alarms.

Known issues:
- OTA update on debranded/rooted roms resolves in wifi not working - debranded may be specific for orange.
- Doesnt fully charge for the first couple of times, probably a calibiration thing, it's ok after 3-5 charges.

I just checked my HBoot version - 0.75. Will this update "unroot" my Desire?
 
@Neodite

You only need a small-ish SD card for a Gold Card. 1GB SanDisk will be a couple of quid.

True, but i want to use this as an excuse to get a much larger disk ;)

Oh and it won't be long till we see TVcatchup on Android :D

You can already go to android.tvcatchup.com but it's not working yet :( only for better testers

I think so as it updates the os version to 1.21 from 1.15 and updates the bootloader. You'd need to re-root.

Alternatively just don't bother with the update and flash a non stock rom!
 
You put on your bullying uniform and give it a shove!


If that doesn't work, however, then the following from Recovery mode and then using the adb-windows.bat (load a command prompt window at thatd ircetory) punch in:

be sure to have the push files in the same folder too:

1:
adb push /FILENAME /system/app/
