O2 doesnt have the N1 so why would they comment on when froyo will be available from them for it?

A small point i didnt think about but they do have the desire...

Did they? Im rooted with 4399.

Yeah, but you're running the 3883 kernel which could be different. It's OK tho, I have another way, proper 4399 superboot coming soon. :lol:

Didnt realise the 4399 kernel was a separate download. Is it any better?

That was strange... i was refreshing the other topic and posts kept disappearing. the more i refresh the more they disappear..

has anyone who's been successful upgrading to 43XX tried updating to 49XX?

Split 4399 discussion to it's own topic.

Need to difference the images to see if the kernel has changed, doing that now! :lol:

Cant be for the desire either. HTC have stated their devices will be getting it later in the year. Q3 or something like that

So is this now on the actual dell site if I go and ask my phone to update?

And do we actually know what 4399 does yet?

Anyone have the custom recovery image running with 4399?

*facepalm* yes it does lol. I'd be surprised if they had it ready that quick though as HTC seem very slow on their updates.

Note 'Update.pkg' is case sensitive, you need the upper case U. :lol:

it worked with a lowercase u. what it didnt like was that i had a file called update2.pkg (49XX build) on the sd card. After renaming update2 it was ok again.

Forgot to switch on wifi for data and have just used about 20mb while abroad... Roaming charges are a pain...

Posted

Ah, right, clearly more than one pkg file is the problem!

Hmmm, flashing the custom recovery seems to be having issues for me, getting a black screen...!

Its ok with 2, but will only allow one that starts with "update" otherwise throws out the same error as a missing file. it was perfectly happy with updgfhfghate2.pkg

Remember that the original file uploaded was the wrong one
