How To Update HTC Desire To Official Android Gingerbread | Pocketnow

- As you may know, HTC will not push the update out over-the-air and this will be the only Gingerbread update to ever officially hit the Desire. It is recommended for advanced users but in this video we'll walk you through the process of updating your phone to the Gingerbread ROM. Check it out below and remember that the update will erase all of your data on the phone (will not touch the SD card though) so make sure to back everything up nicely.

Thank you. You have fixed my rom botched desire to a brand spanking new working mobile. Much love
This is awesome. Exactly what I was looking for, a professionally done upgrade. Thanks! Now, can you please make one more video showing us the differences between the previous version of android and this one on the Desire itself and also if it will be possible to root the device after this upgrade? Would you suggest to just do this upgrade or root the Desire and what are the benefits of both. Thanks and I would really appreciate a response to all these questions. I follow all your videos.
I've got it on mine! Its a lot faster, but the battery life still isn't very good. I've had no problems thus far either. :) The only thing that has gone from the phone is some HTC Background images and some pointless apps that HTC had installed which if you want can be installed from the Market.
I'd recommend to anyone to upgrade to 2.3.3 :)
@koraipl usually its over the air which means you don't have to plug it in to the computer .. ios has to plug in.. and its a firmware update for ios not software
For everyone that can't find the update...when you go to HTCdev.com click kernal updates --> update --> choose your phone using drop down menu --> then click "other" which will reveal the update...it should be the first one
Thanks so much. My buggy Desire is gone and it feels like having a new phone again!
Great VIDEO!!!! It worked, and now my Desire is running Smoother than ever!
@kreutzere Yeah I agree, but as I have done, the .apk is included with the Gingerbread installation pack. So all you need to do is hook your Desire into the computer and select HTC Sync on the device and computer. Then on the overview there is a application installer, use this to install the Flashlight app. Hope that helps. :)
Can you please show us what changed and whether its worth taking this route.
Where's the download? :(
When I plug in the USB what should I sync it as, hard disks drive, charge etc
The first reliable video out there, thank you, subbed!
great vid! just wondering whats the diffrence from this and 2.2.1
While I am updating, right when it gets to radio, it stops and says I need to do something with the ROM utility. Please help
why cant the RUU programme find my phone? how should I connect the Htc with my pc, only charge, use as disk drive or what?
@koraiple android haves also updates over the air but this is an free to do update, you dont have to do it
@kreutzere
I read someone said 128MB free.. I remember after upgraded my Milestone to 2.2, I had 190MB user storage and there was 50MB more than my wife's Desire 2.2... There was around 140MB on a brand new Desire 2.2.. Maybe I'm wrong.
are we gettin the default gingerbread stuff (live wallpapers, menu, keyboard etc.) cause in the end i see there arent any?
Where did you get the 2.3 gingerbread update because its not on the dev website??
I cant find the gingerbred update for desire ... i only find the " HTC desire Android 2.2 upgrade " and if i download this, its Not the Same like this What u have... its an apk and i cant Run it... but its also a 161.0 mb download ... i dont now What to Do... please help !! It would be so helpfull!!
Thanks
nice video and walkthroughs :) but may i ask how to backup my contacts msgs etc.. ???? thanks in advance
HELP! I rooted my htc desire HD now I cant use my internet even it is connected to a wifi
It started running for me, but I got a ID error ...any suggestions?
i have US Cellular and if i update this will i still have us cellular apps like my contacts backup and your naigator deluxe, and tone room deluxe??
My firmware doesnt start at all does the phone realy have to be turned on for using the ruu or is the bootloader good enough ?
i have connected the phone but they are giving my a error that my android is not connected what to do please tell my
i cant find the update on the website, can you tell me where to find it on the website please
when we install android 2.3, can i update to 2.3.x versions of android?
Has anyone here been running 2.3 on the Desire for a while to report how well the phone handles data. My wifes phone runs out of space all the time, does this update help with that?
can i leave my SIM card in when i do the update or do i have to take it out?
@pocketnowvideo
1. Is the HTC Desire of US the same as the HTC Inspire in Latin America?
2.If so, does the Android update works on it?
(I'm about to buy one, I would really appreciate if someone answers me)
So it's not really worth it is it? Better wait for someone to create a custom ROM out of it? I installed CM7 in the meantime...it's really cool. I miss some of the sense features but meh.
can i flash the rom now with the installed official gingerbread on desire?
@hokko1 Not interested in the update, just wanted to know when the Kernel Source Code will be released so that my HD2 can Have Gingerbread with Sense, without any graphical glitches.
i went on that website and the update isnt on there.
Sorry i dont find the upgrade for HTC desire 2.2 ... i find the desire Android 2.3 upgrade...
Have HTC released the Kernel Source Code for the Desire yet?
how much user storage do you have after upgraded to Gingerbread?
Can you restore to default settings once installed if there is a problem with it?
and is this updating the htc sense to a newer version?
@SHAGGYSPAGECHANNEL yup same thing iv had that happen every time too, hopefully they'll make a update version for us but who know
i miss my phone! this is the first thing im doing hopefully when i get it back
i have this Htc with android 2.1 is it possible to upgrade it directly from 2.1 to 2.3 and when yes, could it make a risk for my phone to upgrade it and what are the negative sides of upgrading. pls help.
help me...i'm stuck with 'veryfying information on your android phone.' How much time does this step take?
Thanks so much for your help
@act0780 Sure! I know that! In fact i thought that they wolud install the 2.1 version...But i was wrong...
thanks a lot!! it worked for me
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Hi guys Please does this apply to gingerbread updater for HTC Desire HD too. I need it badly and can't seem to get it OTA. Thanks.
working great! all things working!!
Subscribed.. great video
@kreutzere I was right. I searched and found one of my messages posted on a discussion forum... After update my Milestone to 2.2.1 there was 19xMB free for user storage, while the Desire just got 147MB at that time. So... I think I'm not going to update my Wife's Desire to Gingerbread then.
can u help me?
i have htc desire hd android 2.2 but i can't update to 2.3 or above.
i need this plz
@TheGALR bootcamp ... it seems like the only way . htc doesnt give a crap about mac , like most devs out there .
its on the second page of the device " desire "
I thought they said the update would remove HTC Sense. If it doesn't, then... well, why do I care? I have the Desire S.
does this only work on unlocked desires or will it work on any desire?
@SHAGGYSPAGECHANNEL iv tried a few times still wont work, the RAM versions are different
Is this applicable to HTC Desire HD? When i tried downloading the update, all i got was a rar file. What do you suggest i do?
great video ! Thanks!
@TheAngrychinesekid i dont know but its the best one from the 2.3.x versions :)))
just do a custom rom and flash it with LeeDrOiD 2.3.3 gingerbread HD with HTC sense rom
