    Is anyone else getting the same

  22. Why are they wasting their tinlme with froyo, instead of readying gingerbread?

  24. any idea what the update changes of fixes?

  25. just got it, czech republic

  26. Got it on my HTC desire .. no real change

  28. No dice here for me. Desire HD – 3 Mobile Australia

  29. Took about 10 mins to update… not sure whats different though. Sense seems to be a little more snappier than usual, or maybe I’m just imagining it?

  30. Why isn’t the G2 getting this update, they are the exact same phone…..

  31. Got it few hours ago. Installed it but can’t see no difference

  32. modded my visionary+ rooted desire hd with titanium backup, no update possible cause he doesn’t find facebook ;-) but i don,t bother because I’ll wait for gingerbread thinking that is an complete rom due to compatibility issues.

  39. No sign of update… Desire HD Australia. Phone originated in UAE, so changed locale back to UAE, still no update available…… ready when u are HTC.

  40. I got mine yesterday for my DZ at Portugal after seeing this post and making a manual update. Don’t know exactly what changed but the interface really seems snappier. Also, it changed my soundset to the default one so I had to switch sets again.

  41. Today I received OTA Update for Desire (not HD or Z) in Poland.

  42. It downloads fine, but now my swype won’t work!

  43. Orange UK Stock desire HD. No sign of update or information about getting update. Typical Orange. Very disappointed. Anyone know any different?
