Who isn’t getting Froyo? Well, it looks like unlocked HTC Desire’s in Europe are no longer in the ignore list, as there is now an official press release that states that they will be getting the long awaited 2.2 update.
The upgrade is set to include:
- 720P Video Recording
- HTC Sense Updates
- App Share
- Improved Keyboard
- HTC’s new phone features
- Sync features to allow iTunes syncing
- More
Apparently, Mark Moons was mistaken in his time period for the Froyo release. Full press release below.
The Android 2.2 (FroYo) update for HTC Desire will start rolling out across Europe this weekend. As well as including the complete set of Android 2.2 features, the update will contain a few special additions of our own through the latest iteration of HTC Sense. The update will provide 720p video capture, HTC’s App Share widget, as well as our enhanced HTC Caller ID, and improved multi-language keyboard. Also, though the update, HTC Sync will allow HTC Desire users to sync their music with iTunes.
HTC Desire users will be notified that the over-the-air update is available to download when their phone automatically checks for software updates. The update won’t delete any of the phone’s content. However, due to the size of the update, we would advise using a WiFi connection to download it wherever possible to avoid additional data charges.
This update will initially roll-out to unlocked HTC Desire handsets. Operator specific versions of the update are undergoing testing and we expect to make them available in several weeks’ time.
