Official gingerbread test rom for htc desire hd

A while ago, we told you about an HTC rep at
MWC 2011 confirming that the Desire lineup will
get Android 2 . 3 Gingerbread updates. That
rep ’ s confirmation has now been confirmed ,
what with a test ROM for the HTC Desire HD
being leaked into the wild today .
The update seems to be a work in progress ,
because the ROM is still being labeled ‘ test’ .
However , HTC are once again showing that
they ’ re leading the pack when it comes to swift
Android updates . It will take a while for this
update to become final and make it out , but
they are showing some intent and taking action
on that front , which will please the HTC owners
no end .
You can download the ROM (link below) , but do so at
your own risk because details on what it does
are sparse at best. You might end up bricking
your phone , so be careful. Very careful .

HTC One S S3 processor 's products resulting from the wrong decision of the Executive HTC. They shortage chip S4 from the manufacturer.
And decided to use S3 Processor . Without telling consumers. And not a price cut.:good:
HTC China already announced it was coming in January and they only sell s3 models so you kinda stupid for thinking we would get it at the same time....,
Plus we already know from the last update s3 devices are at the end of the one s roll out.

My wife has a one s s3 version unbranded with Cid htc__001 but am still on 4.0.3 and sense 4.0, running 1.11.401.110 in the UK. Should I not be on 4.0.4 at least and just waiting for jellybean in a few weeks?

when i bought my phone(1 month ago) a dont have 4.0.4 OTA available too, it looks like they paused 4.0.4 or something....but if you want to install it you can do it by RUU
at first install this
http://www.htc.com/uk/software/htc-sync-manager/download/
download RUU from there(4.0.4)
http://d-h.st/3CA
and now double click on file you downloaded and follow instructions its very easy but one disadvantage is that phone will be wiped(factory defaults ) you need to backup everything except 10gb partition for data
Its official 4.0.4 version many people updated this way including me

Hope Jellybean with sense 4+ will be a reality someday :fingers-crossed:
This is great news, the fact we have great devs pushing and keeping our sensation updated, but we need crucially the JB kernel from htcdev, it will solve most issues including more performance. Let's hope they do their part.

Guys don't expect anything from HTC, it's a company who wants its customers to buy new device every 8 months, you might know what they did to DHD, DZ, so because of this i am still banging my head for buying HTC device again, (Sensation) SGS2 JB update really added more pain, even one x will hardly get updates after their recent HTC One release, time to switch to samsung devices from here on, barring plastic builds, their phones are power house, with on time updates!! Sorry if any HTC employee is reading this!!! It's now proved!!

I don't Know what you have, Samsung is not better than HTC if you look at devices that are released at the same time, they are equal about update politics
Sgs2 don't even have jelly bean yet and about sensation they didn't say anything because HTC don't know if it will improve the device

** I WANT SENSE 5 for my htc one s

hi , i've upgraded my phone recently to android PAC-man 4,3 but i think Sense5 is better for me.
I 've looked for it in Development part but i found that Rom s have problems like 4.1.2 android version , Bluetooth not working , ..... for example ( [Rom][MagioRom_R3.6.1][Sense5][JB4.1.2][July29th] )
please introduce me a Sense5 ROM that its android version be 4.2+ without any problem in components like Bluetooth or camera or.....
is it exists?
thanks

Sense 5 with 4.2.2 is not available at the moment.
It could be ported when AT&T HTC One X (aka One XL or Evita) receives sense 5 + 4.2.2.

Finally HTC One X getting Android 4.2 + Sense 5 update in Europe . huraaa!!!!:laugh:
Not long after the HTC One X+ started getting its Android 4.2 update in parts of Asia, HTC Europe has followed suit with an update for the original NVIDIA Tegra 3-powered One X. Reports from the XDA forums show that the update to version 4.18.401.2 weighs in at a little under 380 MB, and includes Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean and the new HTC Sense 5 UI. As such, the update also adds many features from the HTC One, including the BlinkFeed home screen experience, the new Gallery and Camera apps, and automatic video highlights.
It's worth underscoring that this update is for the European HTC One X (codename Endeavor), not the AT&T One X, known internationally as the One XL (codename Evita). So far there are reports that the update is hitting Nordic countries and parts of Eastern Europe first, including Slovakia and Denmark; other European countries should be getting the OTA in the hours and days ahead.
HTC insider @LlabTooFeR tweets that the European HTC One X+ should also be getting a similar OTA, to software version 2.18.401.2, however we've yet to see any signs that that update is rolling out.

HTC Sense is a software suite developed by HTC, used primarily on the company's Android-based devices.
please see this intro for more info : HTC Sense From Wikipedia
you can see complete comparison between HTC Sense 4 and HTC Sense 5 here :
HTC Sense 4 vs. HTC Sense 5
now as @khan.orak predicted before , we kiss ROM Cooker's hand to offer its Htc One S version for us ....
have anybody got any news from Sense 5 distributions for HTC one S ? i was thinking that it will be expressed as soon as ONE X getting sense 5 update !
Now that the X is getting Sense 5 with 4.2.2, maybe, just maybe, the same for the S will follow soon?!!!!!
LOL, this thread is full of idiots.
They're not idiots, just n00bs.
The Evita has started getting the Sense 5/4.2.2 rollout as of yesterday, it started in Deutschland, so whenever a dump is posted on the interwebs I shall give it a shot at porting it as a new DarkSense version.

If you tried searching in the dev section, you would see the number of ROMs that are bug free 4.2. If you're not happy with the number, make a new ROM yourself.
Why is it so hard to just look?
