Froyo on rooted desire won't install

[Guest Jan Patat]

Hi!

I tried to update my rooted desire with the new official FROYO update from HTC but it won't install.

Does this mean that i have to wait for froyo to be "cracked" or is there another way to update ?

Thank in advance for answers ?

Offical Froyo, where?

As far as we can tell only the N1 has a OTA update.

What is the configuration of your phone? What ROM are you running at the moment? Or any apps that would change the identifier?

I know my Desire got recognised as a Nexus One by my Google A/C when I rooted it originaly as Google sent me an email congratulating me on my Nexus, and some of the modifications make the certain ROMs get recognised as a Nexus. If you are running a hacked Froyo ROM then it will also be recognised as a Nexus.

Needless to say, Froyo has only been released for the Nexus at the moment, and despite the similarities between the nexus and desire - the ROMs are not compatable without being modified/ported like Paul has managed.

As for the Desire - HTC will likely release a Sense-enabled version of Froyo whenever they are good and ready, which may be a while...

HTH,

Andrew.
