Quick, check for updates ! If you’ve got the HTC Desire Z on Vodafone version 2.42.161.2 of Android 2.3.3 is now rolling.
Steve has just mailed in to tell us that his Vodafone UK handset popped up with the update, but do let us know if yours if arriving too.
Hi All
Just finished the downloading and I have all the 2.3.3 niceness.
Android 2.3.3
HTC Sense 2.1
Build 2.42.161.2
Now for a play

Still waiting for unlocked/unbranded one to get some Gingerbread…been waiting forever…

My unbranded Desire Z is still lacking Gingerbread goodness also
This update almost bricked my phone, and for over 2hrs just flipped between the HTC logo and the Vodafone logo and would not boot to the home screen. Reluctantly and fearfully I resorted to removing the battery, replaced it and hoped for the best! Thankfully, it worked as I was preparing to do a full hard reset!
I wouldn’t recommend this, but if the same happens to you – this is one solution that seemed to work. Only worked though after it had appeared to have completed the update. Wouldn’t recommend it before that though!
still waiting on my desire z getting ginge, it’s vodafone but unbranded…quite peeved now i mean i’ve only been waiting for months >_<
I keep checking manually for updates and I have the automatic check also but stuck on 2.2.1 (1.72.405.2). I’m about to call customer support to see if they know when it might rock up…
Mine popped up today 🙂 Wish me luck
unbranded, on t-mobile, still no update, what’s going on, I thought unbranded phones were supposed to get the updates first?
Yeah Vodaphone still hasn’t released mine. Went into the store yesterday, they said that they were rolling out the updates, something I already knew. However I find it interesting that they do it because of the networking… I thought it would be more along the lines of troubleshooting…
still nothing for me… how did it go Topdog?
Unbranded UK DZ here too, 1am 31st July (last day), still nothing.
CM7 is starting to call loudly, as is a different handset manufacturer when I buy my next one.
I got mine Yesterday. Looks nice. Should be fun delving deeper.
