That does contain a radio update from 2.09.405.8, and updates HBOOT to 0.93, and changes the kernel too.

There are a few fixes in it. HTC's announcement is a bit vague:

Update Information: 1.Android OS update patch 2.Enhanced multi inbox Gmail support 3.Improved Russia keyboard layout

New OTA Update for the EU was released today. But it has the old Radio and no further changes, except the working PEEP Twitter Client ;)
AFAIK the older Peep is working again also, so the folks at Twitter just loosened their leash. *wondering if HTC gave some kind of incentive* :p

Yes, download it rename it update.zip (not update.zip.zip, mind!!) and put it on your SD card

Boot into HBOOT, select recovery and once you get to the red ! hold volume up and press power and select 'Apply SD:update.zip' and it will install

i believe that for now on there is no way to downgrade 0.93 or even root?

I have a normal unrooted and unbranded desire. I have copied the update.zip on the SD card. How do I enter the recovery mode?

1. Download the official firmware update.
2. Copy the file to your microSD card and name it update.zip (newb warning: not update.zip.zip)
3. Power off your phone.
4. Hold down the VOLUME DOWN button and power it back on.
5. The phone will now search for files like PB00IMG.zip, etc. This is normal. Scroll down to recovery and press the POWER button.
6. When you see the /!\ symbol, press the POWER button and the Volume Up button at the same time. You should be presented with a menu and one of the options should be "Apply sdcard:update.zip".
7. Use the trackball to navigate to "apply sdcard:update.zip" and select it.
8. When you see "Install from sdcard complete", select "reboot system now".

I get ""signature verification failed" while updating, and the update process is aborted .....

Does anyone knows what this means?

I'm getting the same issue actually. I tried both downloading OTA, and this file, but same issue.

Edit: It's due to the phone being rooted, so either wait until someone smarter than me uploads a rooted version rom, or un-root.

I can confirm that you can use the same goldard. Just successfully updated debranded, non-rooted t-mobile Desire to build 2.10.405.2

Rooted version ?

Hi,
Is anyone working on a rooted version of 2.09.405.8 ?
To be honest I'm not that worried about root but I guess as what I have on here is a rooted ROM I'll have to wait till I can put one on.

I had the OTA notification but it failed in Clockworkmod.

Excuse my ignorance but If I do load this ROM will it wipe everything? The OTA update says it will retain all your data but obviously doing it this way it's a bit different I guess?

HTC updates usually don't wipe but it's always recommended to backup.

Normally flashing roms from clockworkmod does not wipe unless you select wipe in the menu.

Anyway. Do a nandroid backup from clockworkmod before flashing just in case.

You can't apply the OTA to a rooted phone, you need to go back to stock and do it again. Easier to just use the 2.10.405.2 RUU and then root it again
