ditto, you do.

Can the post starter show us some mroe information?

Does it actually have a download link? I cant see why they would issue a whole rom update for the graphics fix, this is probably just the rom with the camera fix included.

knowing htc :rolleyes:

if you can tell us what the image says about versions, I believe I have the most up to date official HTC rom available from late 2007.

I've just tried but it appears that there's no download link at present (at least on my PC there isn't) . Just a box that says "Please Select" which normally lists the FTP locations (usually HTC US or HTC Europe) but it doesn't list any locations where the file can be downloaded from.

It also doesn't give any information as to what the file actually is.

Probably my works firewall blocking access - I've had this issue before where I can't download from HTC at work (although I can download from plenty of other sites). I'll try again when I'm home in about an hour.

Edited to add: I've just got home and tried again - still no download locations.

I have the same problem with the 'Please select' box...
I just called HTC Europe, but they said there was no new hotfix, and there aren't no phone software updates for the kaiser...

Hopefully, there they will at the locations fast ;)

There's a few things wrong with that page - there's no image with the version number (which the text speaks of) either. It all looks pretty suspect to be honest - like it's just an empty template we were never meant to see.

Besides, the supposed March "fix" was reportedly just a cab file, not a full ROM update.

Checking the source code now;

Found one thing so far, this was commented out ( <!-- don't execute this code --> )
<!--<tr bgcolor="#ffffff" align="left">
<td align="left" class="plink"><img src="images/gfx/bulletLink_7x11.gif">
<a href='Download.aspx?dl_id=398&amp;loc=us'>HTC US</a></td>
</tr>-->

Edit: TBH it looks like it's just a template

Ehm, this isn't about the Photo Hot Fix ;)


Btw in my opinion this is definitely a template file, but it isn't there to actually store the template. They obviously have some download ready that they will soon put online at that place.

They said a couple of times that they'll be releasing an update before the end of march. And march is ending in 3 days.
