I was just wondering since Gingerbread and sense are included on the Desire S and this has been quite a desireable combo for some time now but not possible for unofficial devs... since it's already been at MWC is there anyone who currently has one that we might be able to get a ROM dump from as was done before the Desire HD came out? If anyone has one or can get hold of one to dump the ROM please let us know so devs on here may guide you at dumping the ROM so they can begin porting the ROM to our current WVGA devices...

Waiting for the Gingerbread Sense ROM.
The htc S device line has 2.2.1 not 2.3...its does have a new sense version which is 2.1, lots of people have been confused by this already...

That's wrong. On MWC it was 2.3.2 on the desire s. You can see it on some of the hands-on videos. The Incredible will come earlier than the others with 2.2 but desire s will have gingerbread.
Can't wait to get a desire s port running smoothly on the hd2!

I just bought a HTC Desire S and it is running Android 2.3.3 with Sense 2.1.
Is Orange ROM any better? I see a lot of people talking about loading Orange ROM.

I don't know if you guys have seen this or not, but here's the Droid 2.1 dump:
http://www.androidoverdrive.com/vie...77&sid=3d93f9a70ff586b6d562ba62d5d07a8c#p4477
Hopefully you can do something with it.
Can i flash this as a update
wait.. shouldn't that be 2.0.1?
anyways.. cool.. for Droid users.
I doubt that this dump will be useful for Sapphires.
I'm mostly looking forward to a custom rom based on the leaked HTC Desire (Bravo) rom (2.1 SenseUI)
Paul (Modaco) is already working on getting the Desire rom to run on the Nexus.

No, it's a leaked 2.1 dump.
This is useless for the Magic.
We just need the 2.1 update for the Hero
I am a huge fan of the HTC Sense UI for the Hero and I would like to have it on the myTouch. I'm looking forward to buying one soon, but I don't want to risk rooting a brand new phone. So i was wondering if the Rogers upgrade for their HTC Magic+ can be used to add Sense UI to the new myTouch.
Yes, if you make it.
make what?

Not currently. The new MyTouch doesn't really have a wide selection of ROMS at the moment. (read none...)
Once you get root, you can install the stock Fender ROM with root access or a port of an eclair ROM (st0kes_eclair.) I personally haven't used the eclair ROM as I have heard it currently has some issues.
Best bet at this point is just to wait for HTC to release the kernel so more developers can start making us some custom ROMs.

thanks vantix. but im not really looking for a custom ROM. i just want to know if the HTC Magic+ update will work on for the myTouch 1.2. You can find that update here: htc.com/ca/support/magic-rogers/downloads/
I'm sorry but it won't. Your hardware is very close, but not exactly the same as the Magic (your touchscreen differs, and you ave the 3,5 mm jack). Don't flash this, as most probably it will break your phone.
aww sad day. thanks movikun
Oooh man you don't wanna flash that htc magic+ from rogers. Trust me hahaaha. The people on rogers (such as myself) were forced to flash that (thank god I didnt) and yeah it could possibly braek your phone as well.
You currently can't even flash a custom rom over to MyTouch LE because of the drivers issues. You won't have touchscreen, etc. This is being worked on... sorta.
Since the Fender/LE is Google then you will not see HTC SenseUI on it.
To get SenseUI on your MyTouch v1.2 you will have to do some work.
Get the source from HTC and use the LE Kernel (with drivers)
Port it to a SenseUI rom OR SenseUI source.
Probably won't be worth the trouble.
Hello everybody.
I have a non-rooted HTC Desire that I have upgraded, over-the-air, to Android 2.2.
I want to get Android 2.3 on this baby as well as the latest version of HTC Sense (the one where you can shuffle screens in leap view, that has a scrollable list of last used apps in the notification bar...).
I've read a while back that someone made a HTC Desire HD ROM for the HTC Desire but that many essential features weren't working. But at any rate, the HTC Desire HD has the new HTC Sense but not Gingerbread.
I've also never rooted my phone, I'm wondering if anyone can help.
if u can wait then wait for an official gingerbrd update..
else root ur phone and search the forum for a GB rom.. u will find lots for ur phone
I have here my friend's HTC Desire S. It's still running 2.1 (Eclair). I was wondering where I should start with flashing on this phone. I already have CM9 on my SGS2, but I understand the HTC recovery, among other things work differently. Any advise?
Prasad.
Are you sure it's desire S?
Desire S launched with gingerbread.
Android 2.3 and sense 2.1
Tapatalked from a Desire S waiting for Kernel 3 sources. WAKE UP HTC!!!!!!
It's most probably the regular Desire.
Hi all
how can i Upgrade Android 2.3.5 to android 4.0.
I have sought for solution but to no avail. If there is a side effect, i would like to know cos i figured its better to have it as it is than upgrade and have multiple issues.
this question might be commonplace but i do really need to know.
thanks
The 4.0 ruu was only released as a research and development release, it is buggy.
I would recommend installing a custom rom instead. (see the guides in this forum)
Yeah I agree its really not at all what its cracked up to be I regret ever downloading it
Sent from HTC desire S Android 4.0.4
I started installing 4.0.4 more than 20minutes ago whereas it should have taken about 10 minutes. I'm afraid waiting won't help. What do you suggest to recover from the situation? I don't want to have my htc bricked..
Did anything pop up on the screen during installation

DON'T go to 4.0 ROMs whatsoever. Stay with 2.3 or jump right to 4.2+ ROMs. My experience.
