Can be tomorrow, next week, month, year, whatever. I am sure you got the idea there's no ETA.

With most chances going to "whatever"

If I understand it right you can't root the Frojo update by using software only.
It can be done by using something like an xtc clip to get S-off, but that way is expensive £105.- +shipping to buy one.
What unrevoked does is giving us an oportunity to root using software only. But as said before 2.2.1 version in curently not supported by unrevoked

It never can be rooted.
No-one do root for Wildfire.

I think so - -

I thought (wishful thinking) that some people were working to root wildfire froyo, but you guys think the opposite?
Better bought another thc then...

To be honest i wouldn't buy another wildfire wether its an S or the old one. Bull%^$t upgrades just to bring up the price. S is what our current wildfire should have been when it came out... And for the price it has now...
Way offtopic here sorry
So still waiting for an update from alpharev. No news yet.

I am waiting on the pricing for the incredible S. Would seem like a good upgrade if the price is good

I bought the wildfire as a starter smartphone. It has exceeded all my expectations, but I don't think I would go for another phone with such low specs as everything else is getting soo much better!

That thread title is a bit misleading
Here was me thinking this may of been the holy grail

Me too

Does anyone know how can i unlock my htc wildfire with 2.2.1, because it is has a sim lock just for telenor network, but i wanna unloc it for other networks too???
please respond

Hello!
Like I said in other threads, it's a shamer not letting the customer decide what he/she wants to do with her smartphone. IF I WANT TO INSTALL WINDOWS 98 ON IT, WELL THEN IT BE SO. But no, they have to block it, just so we stick with their software and can't fix thing for ourselves.
I think I speak for all when I say, next time I'm going to buy a phone which is not locked, so I can do what I want, not having to wait for someone to make a programm or hardware to make it according to be unlocked
yours truly

I can see the end of the road for my wildfire, the fire is already put out. Seen threads in the desire forum that froyo root by unrevoked but not wildfire causes frustration cos new users with latest batch handset would come with froyo.
I feel lucky enough to root my phone just in time.
So no official froyo rooting hope only check unrevoked website daily hope, or of course buy a better phone.

[Q] Sense not updated to 2.1 despite official 2.3.3 upgrade?

Hi folks,
I updated my Desire from 2.29 to 2.3.3 last night. Proceeded to S-OFF and root it using Revolutionary.
Question: The Sense hasn't changed to 2.1
The interface isn't different - I was assuming 2.1 would be something like, for eg, what was portrayed in the GingerBurst ROM xda page.

In figure 2, note the icons at the bottom. However, for me, they still are how they were before: A triangle (to show the all apps menu) on the left and the plus (to add something to the screen) on the right.
In figure 3, there are apparently different sections in the all apps menu. This isn't the case with mine.
Can someone please clarify what the 'issue' is?
Many thanks.

Nobody said, that the "official" upgrade will have 2.1

Desire is awesome
and official update doesn't come with 2.1
u need to root

Gotcha... My bad, then. I thought I'd read somewhere that the 2.3.3 came with an upgraded version of Sense.
Thanks for the responses folks...

Same case as mine. I was misinformed that Desire HD will hit retail here around Christmas last year which was some 9 weeks from the moment I got mine so I decided not to wait because my previous phone malfunctioned. It came out three weeks after

DHD isn't that great though.. super sh!tty battery life and same screen res as Desire so lower pixel density

not only that, DHD has a TFT-LCD screen and not an SLCD screen. HTC scammed in their specifications. I didn't realise it until my cousin got a DHD and i was wondering how come the colour is unlike what i see in Desire S and Sensation.

I was wondering why the pic looked so familiar

lol... You know what? I was stupidly waiting for the official Gingerbread update of HTC Desire. When arrived (after long long waiting) I downloaded and installed just hoping for a new interface (HTC Sense). Alas! There was nothing.
But, I am so happy for the incident. Cuz, this made me desperate to have newer version of Sense. I looked for it and discovered the way of rooting. Thats it! I rooted my device at the 9th day when HTC announced offcial GB update using Unrevoked. Then I installed custom ROM with sense 3.0 and I am enjoying. I learned a lot within these days. Currently I am using Sense 3.5
So, i suggest you to do same.
Thanks-

Same here. Before the release of the gingerbread update, I was only temp rooted with visionary+. When it finally came out and I saw the negative reviews, I rooted and flashed custom Rom the day after the update is announced.

On the contrary, they updated as much as they could. You know, all those fancy animations require additional space, which Desire lacks it. Even after deleting 3 apps and all wallpapers there is approximately 20 MB less of free space. Of course, they could upgrade Sense to full 2.1, but we would have what, 5 MB of free space? Not much usable, is it?

[Q] will there be a good replacement in 2012?

I love my phone but it.s getting a little old
i hope they will release a new good qwerty phone this year.
my wishlist is
bigger screen amoled, it doesn't bother me with the size
better hinges
more power, a real top of the line phone, with hoppefully the same overclocking capability
hdmi out for emulatorgaming
better and faster camera, the focus suxs
and a thick phone with a decent battery, none of this ultrathin crap
ARE THERE ANY PLANS THIS YEAR FOR SUCH A PHONE?

Na, like with the desire z, i'll just wait until the first blond 14 year old girl buys it and then don't know how to use it, buys a iphone instead then sell it to me for little or nothing
I payed 210usd for this last year, almost new :0
(Tapatalk, phone)

I'm also wanting to upgrade this yyear, probably going to get an android tablet next month, in which case, if there isn't a decent phone similar to this by july, ill wait for an iphone 5

the droid 4 looks like they have the right idea, but its to thin, and i dont like when they waste so much space on the front, no need for buttons,
and i dont like when they make some parts of a phone thin and others thick.

bigger screen, bigger battery and this would be mine

As I've said in numerous identical threads, get the MyTouch 4G Slide. We have overclock, our ROMs are mostly Sense-free with CM9 around the corner, and there is no hinge problem.

I don't think mytouch lineup is even available here.. its ugly anyway. Droid 4 would be the phone to get atm, but i'm fine whit DZ for a year more @least..
For more power i'm getting android tablet once the new ones come out. Probably transformer prime, but first, i want to see whats the Lenovo tegra 3 tablet. I would like a proper stylus enabled tablet.

The MT4GS is less than five months old and still a top-of-the-line device that's beaten the Galaxy Nexus in an Antutu benchmark test.

Mods close this thread, ive ported ics sense

Are most users in desire forum own a higher end device and have a desire as a secondary device? Or do most users own 1 device (desire) and use it as their primary device?
Curious to see if porting sense 3.6/4.0 is important

Desire as primary. Nothing else.
Should have added a poll.
via xda app

Samsung devices are good, but when you see the built quality of HTC Devices Samsung looks very cheap.
I have tried different devices like Sony, Samsung Galaxy SLCD, but HTC Desire is still the Best, both in terms of looks, built and also It has a large number of Custom ROM's.
Yes Desire will remain my Primary Device for atleast One more year.

It was my first mobile and I still use it as my primary device.

I own my Desire since almost 2 years ago. It's a little old, but still working like a clam after flashing.

Just give the guy a straight answer. He doesn't need to hear your complaints or experiences with the Desire or any other device you own.
via xda app

I use Desire as my primary phone, and i won't see myself change my phone for a while.
So yes, i think Sense 3.6 / 4.0 port is important

It's my first smartphone and I still use it as primary device. Love it!! The dedelopment is great and i learned a lot about Android, Kernels and Linux. So I think with a custom rom an some mods it's everything you need at the moment to be happy.

And where did he say he want to? He is rom developer. He already knows the limitations of that phone otherwise he wouldn't try to port a Sense 4. All he needs to know is if its worth wasting his time developing a new rom for all of you. Just give him a straight answer and not waste his time reading through your opinion before giving him the answer that he needs.

I was suppose to reply an hour ago lol, thamks everyone for your feedback, i started this thread on phone but didnt see the option for poll :s, the above post is correct, i do want to see if its a waste of time or not, cause currently this is my highest priority

Will it ever even be possible to have a working 4.0+ for the EVO 4G?

Dozens of people all working on ICS and JB roms but not a single one of them are fully working.
Without HTC's help in releasing the drivers for the FFC and camcorder will there ever even be a working rom or are all of them just going to miss out on features of the phone forever? 4G not working is fine since 4G EVO version is not going anywhere, but missing out on the camcorder and FFC are big deals..

Seems like this topic comes up at least once a week now, in some way or another.
To answer your question though, no. Without the source for the drivers, developers would have to come up with it from scratch, which is very meticulous and time-consuming as I understand it. Sure, the possibility exists, but I believe the chance of it happening is slim to none. Not that I think the developers couldn't do it, but we're talking about a device that's 2+ years old now. There are newer and greater devices out there that are still being supported, not only by great developers but also the manufacturer, which is key to this entire issue. When the OG lost the support of HTC and went EOL with Sprint, it was pretty much game over as far as source code ever went. If you want a fully-functional ROM, stick with GB-that's where the OG shines

As you can see the development for the OG is just about dead,theres no real reason for anyone to attempt to make a driver for it,the phone is close to being obsolete,so it would be useless.

What I really wonder is why HTC wouldn't release the drivers for a phone that's already EOL...but I guess they want to force us to upgrade...and it's working.

HTC Evo 4g

I completely agree, as long as they feel that they could loose profit by having potential customers sticking with their old phone, they wont release a thing. But when ICS is old news, then don't be to shocked if they just happen to go ahead, and out if pitty, throw it our way.

They can't release something they don't have. Do you really think they would write drivers for a device they no longer support? That's a waste of time and resources better spent working on currently supported devices.

I'd like to make the drivers...theyre linux drivers in their base...I wonder what porting them from GB would really take. It be a great show of solidarity among OG Evo 4g users and a big middle finger to Sprint and HTC. Also, really kick ass. At any rate, maybe instead of *****in we should be learnin.

It's true, but I believe it's because there are a lot more newer devices that are being supported. This is an old phone and i'm surprised it's still being developed. For me, I'm using this JB Rom and loving it so far: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1947452.

I do believe there will never be a fully functioning JB ROM cause the camera drivers don't match up. Not to mention the EVO hit its max software with GB. Anything past that starts to lag. Having that issue now with JB on my Nexus S.
