can i downgrade 2.1 do 1.5?
and where to find 1.5 android os
To download from a 2.1 custom rom to a stock 1.5 rom simply download a new rom here:
http://www.htc.com/uk/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=283&act=sd&cat=all
If your on a generic phone choose the last one in the list. You will be asked to input your serial number, this is to ensure you get the right rom for your phone.
This will revert your phone back to the Sep 11 2009 update (1.5).

you can't and you lost the root
i wait the official eclair rotted by our chefs
ok...tks...will wait for the rooters to crack it open
It may be a long wait or never that the bootloader gets unlocked on the 2.1 RUU.
HTC have really tried to lock that rom down. Once you have root access its always best to stick to custom roms, the warning was on this site for months now.
I just revert my hero from 2.1 update 1 to stoc 1.5 hero UK JUSt by flashing with the old stock rom.
this is nice!

hi
now iam using modaco custom rom 3.1
can i upgrade my hero to 2.1 which is gonna release on april?
Are there any steps to do that or just download that file from htc site and run it?
I think that should work fine, but it will not be rooted anymore i guess?
from what i gather you'll irreversibly lose your root access if you upgrade to the official one. Something about improved security. Wait a bit and the rooted version of the stock rom would pop up somewhere.
do i need to create any goldcard to upgrade?
or goldcard process is only used to downgrade from custom rom to 1.6 official version?
hey I recently just bought a new htc hero rooted on v1.6
Since 1.6 is kinda out of date now so I was planning to update the software via the official site to 2.1 as I dont have the technical experience to flash a rom myself.
But my question is can update via the official installer thingy? or if my phone if rooted do i HAVE to use the rom flashing method?
I just needed to know just in case i completely mess up the phone
Thx.

HTC hasn't released the 2.1 update for the Hero yet,... We hope to get it by the start of next month.
There are however, ports of the leaked CDMA 2.1 update available to try out in the development section.
Once the update has been officially released, I would suggest waiting for a rooted version to be posted here on XDA rather than installing it from HTC themselves as the official update may close access to root in future.
and fwiw: you are on android1.5, not 1.6.
I have survived a long time on stock 1.5 rom. Have been waiting a long time for 2.1 rom. Now that it is finally coming to me, I am starting to consider if I should just root and install all the other roms out there now, just in case stock 2.1 cannot be rooted....
any comments ?
I am using a singapore hero ..
2.1 cannot currently be rooted, do not flash it if you want to root.
Thread moved.
just root and install a 2.1 rom, theyr exactly the same but with a root features
yeah i was also gonna ask the same question .. it was running whole time on my mind ..
Currently i am on official 1.5 firmware , i am waiting for 2.1 update also i didn't root my phone yet but planning to what if i install official 2.1 update ? later i can not root Hero ? & can't install or flash any Custom ROM ?
Or root now & install Custom ROM ?
would just say you can not root after you upgrade to offical 2.1 from HTCs site or OTA or RRU file...
while you are on 1.5 root!
once you have a custom recovery you can flash a update.zip file that contains 2.1 offical upgrade minus the SPL upgrade and recovery and radio..
it would be just silly for anyone to install the offical update direct from htc. there have been so many threats about this...
hope this helps though
Hi, My Mozart does not seem to be getting a response from HTC to tell me that the latest Firmware is available. I have connected it to Zune several times and I even have the leaked 7720 ROM installed and if I'm right this should have triggered the update process. Could anyone shed some light on this or have I missed something and I need to actually do something to install this update myself. I have listed below my phone details as they are now.
Network: Orange UK
Model: HTC 7 Mozart T8698
OS version: 7.10.7720.68
Firmware: 2250.09.13001.401
Hardware: 0004
Radio Software: 5.54.09.21-22.33b.50.10U
Radio Hardware: A.102.0.D4
Bootloader: 1.30.2250.1(117833)
Chip SOC: 2.2.5.0
Any help would be gratefully accepted.

you flashed the device with unofficial rom so there is no more support from zune for your phone.

Where did you get that info?
Zune continues to update the devices when you flash a leaked ROM, because a leaked ROM does not mean a unofficial one.
He asks for the HTC firmware update (not the OS upgrade) but i believe that update is to some phone carriers, since the no carrier devices won't seem to get the firmware update. Maybe this has something to do with HTC and they bad support...
I have an HTC 7 Mozart from T-Mobile DE and i receive the update. But with an unlocked and unbranded Mozart i never got the firmware upgrade...
Hi, thanks for the response. I have since tried going back to stock but this didn't update the firmware only software. I have also tried going back to unbranded but again still no update. I'm baffled by this, any ideas.

any kind of error message?connection error,etc? nothing?
Hi, I can connect with Zune and it syncs ok but even looking in the settings for an update all it says is that my phone is up to date. I'm running out of things to try. Think I will go back to stock again and leave it for a while this time as this did give me a later bootloader version, as in 1.33 and not 1.30 as is the Ansar rom im using. Also no errors at all, just doesn't seem to be found by HTC at all.
Just to keep people informed.
I flashed back to the stock Orange UK ROM.
This updated everything to 7392 and also to the latest firmware.
I then decided to try flashing back to the unbranded Ansar ROM.
This took me to 7392 but had actually dropped me back down to my original firmware. So I am now on the road to flashing Mango again but with my original firmware.
But surely if I am only updating the OS my firmware should have stayed the same or are things done differently in WP7
Got it all sorted.
Flashed the stock Rom, updated to Mango Beta then to Mango RTM and now have Mango with latest firmware.

Hi, yes it was the stock Orange UK Rom I flashed. I believe you are correct in saying that it is only Orange and T-Mobile that are getting the updates as I was running the unbranbded Ansar Rom but no update ever came through.

Hi Guys,
You are now my final hope!!!
I am trying for 3 days now to upgrade the radio version of my Desire V to 1.10 (Currently I'm running on1.06)
I have installed several ROM's an tried to run OTA updates, but none of them actually updated my radio to 1.10
Can someone provide me the zip file or a clear instructiuon on how to update my radio to 1.10?
I'm now running on the HTC_T328W_Asia-WWE_1.73.707.1_Stock ROM (found here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2343623 )
Radio is on 1.06.34D.05_20.22.30.23U
I'm looking for radio version 1.10.34D.17_20.26.30.27U
My girlfriends Desire V is actually running on this radio and exact the same kernel (1.73.707.1)
Using "getprop ro.cid" I get back HTCCN703 (China Version)

the problem is that your phone was born in china and you will flash a TW Radio image.. and before you're not have a TW CID or SUPER CID you are NOT PERMITTED to do an update of your Radio
maybe an update to latest chinese Radio is possible
if i could get a chinese rom... I should solve your issue..

Ok, I have the same version. I was in same condition as you and it was needed of two OTA to get radio 1.10. It will be and a third update but that is for some chinese apps (11 of them) - don't bother.
Good luck!
Here is a thread with all official versions, RUU and ROM for this version of Desire V. It's chinese but numbers are readable.

Download these, follow the steps from that page you mentioned before, and you will return to stock, then you can do OTA updates.

Pfffffffff
This took some time and effort.
First I had to reload the Original China ROM
OTA updates were loaded, however, they did not install
Several other ROM's were loaded, but no succes at all
Then I locked the bootloader again en downloaded the correct RUU
Installed the RUU using the PC over the Original China ROM I installed myself
After this, the Phone installed several OTA updates
Finally my radio was updated to version 1.10
Then unlocked the bootloader again
installed the European ROM and all is runnig fine now
Thank you for the information!!!

If after installation of the original China ROM, you did flash stock recovery and boot, and lock the bootloader, than I can assure you the OTA will install. But if you have custom recovery and bootloader unlocked, OTA will be downloaded but not installed.
I know you solved this, but for the other readers who wants to do that I have to say it.
