Hi! i am a singapore user of HTC Desire. I just updated my software to 2.13.707.2

anyone here have problems after the update?

one tiny problem is with handcent. when there is a new sms, it usually will indicate the number of new sms on the handcent icon. but now after the update the number is hidden behind the icon. a bit strange.
 
Mine seems to be hanging when I use mobile internet, slower when starting up from being off and problems with the Google search app - last window scrolling right. Won't allow me to tap the search box and type - I have to physically press the search button.

No amount of restarts has improved this - a real pain.

I'm interested in others experience as well. :)

You will have issues with the OTA so don't even bother. To unroot, get the RUU and flash it to your phone. You will lose all data but you'll be up-to-date. There is only 1 RUU, though:

Shipped ROMs

i am prepared to lose all the data... but is this update worth me going thru the process of unrooting and updating to the new firmware?..

anyway is htc desire going to have android gingerbread support?

that's because after the update, all our widgets are duplicated on top of the existing ones! try delete one and you'll immediately see another one behind it. weird
