Trying to upgrade to Froyo but having issues

[Guest nick w]

Right, i have rooted and updated my desire to a stock 2.1 firmware. it was easy.

But now i want Froyo on.

I have followed the instructions, downloaded, chucked it on to both my 4gb micro card and my 1gb gold card but it wont intstall.

I get the error while in recovery

verifying update package...

E: signature verification failed

Installation aborted

I also cant see Nandroid. The only way i could back up was to download the ClockWorkRom Manager. Which i have now performed. Even through that i was unable to install Froyo.

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks

You need a gold card to update to stock FroYo on an ex-branded Desire

[Guest gsnares]

You need to put a small update.zip in the root of the sd. I will find it and post a link for you.

Or you need an unsigned rom through clockwork. What does it say when you try to install rom through rom manager?

What Rom are you trying to install please (link if you can) thanks

Ok, i have created a gold card. I used it to update to a stock 2.1

would i have to create a new gold card?

Im using a gold card now or would something happen to it to make it un usableif i have already used it wiith 2.1?

Thanks

Well i updated to

:r3.1 ROM with default MoDaCo additions and A2SD+ - DOWNLOAD (MediaFire) / MIRROR (ROMraid / CoBlitz) - MD5: a8cea0b85e8c94081c8688784e913651

That was stock to me as i am using a branded orange desire.

i used the gold card inorder to do this and now have SuperUser Permission on the all programs menu.

But im struggling to install Froyo.

Any ideas?

Any other methods i can try?

Thanks

There is also an update for my phone when i go to "about phone" "System Update"

Also. when i get into the Android System Recovery, i have the following:

E:Can't Open /cache/recovery/command

Thanks

Use ClockworkMod recovery (from ROM Manager on the Market) if you're not already.

hi Paul, i done that. Still didnt work, it went through the motions but then quickly went black and restarted.

Is it worth downloading froyo again?

Sorry this is what i originaly downloaded:

If you have a bootloader version 0.75.xxxx or below AND a current ROM of 1.15.xxx.x or below - DOWNLOAD (MediaFire) / MIRROR (ROMraid / CoBlitz) - MD5: 28dd5acc4104bb49bd4b292cc8e8437c

From:

http://android.modaco.com/content/htc-desi...o-1-21-support/

that has de branded my orange desire.

So now i want Froyo

Which i got from Pual's topic:

http://android.modaco.com/content/htc-desi...th-sense-frf91/

I downloaded

r5 ROM with default MoDaCo additions - DOWNLOAD (ROMraid Load Balancing) - MD5: 0447f25df12f481981d0ca0550905168

Thanks for any help

[Guest nick w]

Right.

I downloaded:

r5 ROM with default MoDaCo additions and A2SD+ - DOWNLOAD (ROMraid Load Balancing) - MD5: 64ee911e58da705846891487f71073e6

Went into Clockworkrom Manager, installed and works a treat.

thanks again!
