flying dog Posted May 30, 2011 Posted May 30, 2011 Well, I just got off the phone with HTC. Wow. Story: My phone is "stuck" on 2.1 and I can't get it to upgrade. Got a "magic" number from the person on the phone and I have downloaded the 173 Meg file to the PC I am on now. This is the page from which I am working: http://www.htc.com/au/supportdownload.aspx?p_id=312&cat=2&dl_id=1048 On the phone I have HTC Sync (the latest one) and APP Monster to back up my apps. Another one was mentioned but by that time I had APP Monster and it seems to work. On the PC (at home) I have HTC Sync (Yeah, sorry it is here I have it, not the phone) and another Sync program which works "better" than HTC Sync for actually syncing the phone. Anyway, what I think I need to do - I am saying it here to make sure I am going about this the right way - I get home, put the file on my home PC, and get ready. Before I do that, I run APP Monster and backup all my Apps to the SD card. I also run this other APP to backup my contacts. (Shame I can't remember its name but anyway....) I am down to step 7. Well, I have the file on the machine now. That was just mentioned. As I am plugging it into a DESKTOP, the PC's Hybernation is not going to happen, the phone will get all the power it needs from the PC. Step 8 has been done already - hasn't it? I have the RUU file. Step 9 That wipes the data and put the phone into bootloader mode. Step 10 and on. Well, ok. Now I am worried. If I have the 173 Meg file, do I still need internet connection? Coz I don't have one. Mine is via the phone I am trying to upgrade. (Don't ask about the cost, etc.) Do I need to find someone with an ADSL connection? Thanks in advance. FD.
