wildfire froyo update.

telman · Dec 17, 2010

Having read all the forums here re Froyo, I am tempted to be extremely pessimistic that Froyo will ever happen (like most other subscribers).

I just hope RyanRaven's confidence is justified and he has some 'inside' knowledge. If so - here's hoping!!

My wildfire is Froyo 2.2.1 right now. I get it from this link. [ROM]RUU_Buzz_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.22.405.1_Radio_13.55.55.2 4H_3.35.20.10_release - xda-developers
It's Fast , I can move apps to SD

Lagro · Dec 18, 2010

I wait for the official one, few more days or weeks.

GavChap · Dec 18, 2010

That one murat168 linked to is offical, only HTC can make RUU files.

ryanraven · Dec 18, 2010

Its already out in china thats y lol just waiting for the carrier to get the update then HTC will release it for their unbranded/unlocked phones.
then branded phones will have to wait a bit longer.

HTC UK | Facebook

JamesT may be right I posted a comment on HTC facebaook page yesterday and got this reply
HTC UK commented on their Wall post.
HTC UK wrote "Hi, Android 2.2 for Wildfire is definitely coming soon."

Still no release date but we may be lucky and get it in the next few days/weeks

I'm getting Spam push messages coming through ever since I updated to Froyo.
Is there a way of disabling this and still keep my Gmail?

I.E. Disable Push, but still be able to check my Gmail manually.

Oops , meant to raise new thread.

Hm, well, speaking of which, where do I activate Push for my Gmail account?

I think maybe you can't DEactivate or activate it for the gmail app, I think it's just on all the time, but I could be wrong.

Spooky_ · Dec 22, 2010

Oh ok.

Nestacres · Dec 22, 2010

Does the phone automatically back up the settings etc before the update or will I have to redo everything (scenes,apps, accounts etc) afterwards? Thanks

ryanraven · Dec 22, 2010

its always best to wipe the data off the phone anyways people are having problems when updating to Froyo so they reset the phone to factory settings and it works fine but apps will be deleted your contacts should save to gmail i you have set it up but you will need to redo your accounts.

Spooky_ · Dec 22, 2010

Only the APN for my mobile network connection got lost during the update.

Spooky_ · Dec 22, 2010

I do have one problem after the update though. Sometimes the Mobile Network connection simply disappears and doesn't automatically come back (no G, H or 3G indicator present at the top at all). The only way to get it working again is temporarily disabling and enabling it again.
