*** The Official HTC Desire (Bravo) Thread! ***

Err, I can't remember. Someone on here pointed me to a link. I had to install HTC Sync in order to do it though. Give me a bit and I'll try to dig out how / where I did it

EDIT, hold on, perhaps I mean flash. Yeah, I flashed it with the default HTC firmware.
 
Android 2.2 (Froyo) source code released



Well, now it's finally here. On the Android Developers Blog, Android 2.2 has gone open source and is available for all to do as they see fit. Froyo includes many new and exciting features. Included in these are a faster browser, cloud-to-device messaging (also known as Android Intents), an improved Android Market, and much more. JIT compilation is also baked in, giving applications as much as a 450% speed boost when compared to Android 2.1. Enterprises will be happy with the enhanced Exchange support, adding remote wipe capabilities in addition to other important security features.

On The Official Google Blog, Google notes that 160,000 Android devices are being activated each day. There are currently 60 compatible Android devices on the market scattered across 21 OEMs, 59 carriers, and 49 countries. Android continues to see significant growth in the mobile market and doesn't look to be slowing down anytime soon.

i presume i would need to root to get it? and if not i need to wait for htc to push it out

It just means that any issues with the Defrost and Modaco Froyo roms should now be easy enough to fix and stabilise it more.

And that we know now HTC 'should' be working on getting an update ready, if they haven't had it longer already.
 
Sweet ass!

I will RUU update now :p

Edit*

Hmm which OTA did you guys use on the Orange handset?

Go to the options menu and choose "accounts and sync" and see what is running (there will be the sync symbol beside whats syncing)

Rebooting to bootloader...

rebooting into bootloader... OKAY

Step 1 complete - now use the bootloader menu to enter recovery mode.

To do this, press the power button, wait a few seconds, then use the volume keys
and power button to select the RECOVERY option.
