I bought my wildfire from HK and i was wonder why i didn't receive and OTA update, contact HTC support they told my my device region is Indonesia , so I did a fast sniff between my device and my router, and wrote this small script to make it easy for other's to download whatever firmware they wont.
HTC update server is only need two input:
-model name (which is case sensitive), like: HTC Wildfire
-firmware version (you need to enter old version number to receive the new one)
Dr.Death
Can this be used on european Wildfires , i see a "locale:en_US}" bit in the script, should that be changed for different locales?
Haven't tried it but it looks interesting.
I guess yes, it should work with all wildfire devices, for the variable "locale:" you can put anything inside it and it should work,
i found many variables sent from my device to the update server, i test all of them, and found that just those variables are needed to be send to receive the OTA zip file form the update server.
{id:0,
checkin:
{build:
{firmware_version:1.14.405.2,
},
},
model_number:HTC Wildfire,
logging_id:0,
locale:en_US}
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
(id, logging_id, locale) those three variables should not be empty but you can enter put anything in it.
you can get the older version from htc.com or from shipped-roms.com, I test it with those version's:
Buzz_HTC_WWE_1.14.405.2 >> Buzz_HTC_WWE_1.25.405.1
Buzz_hTC_Asia_HK_CHT_1.15.708.2 >> Buzz_hTC_Asia_HK_CHT_1.22.708.1
Buzz_hTC_Asia_HK_CHT_1.22.708.1 >> Buzz_hTC_Asia_HK_CHT_1.25.708.2
Bravo_HTC_EU_1.14.405.1 >> Bravo_HTC_EU_2.10.405.2
Bravo_Froyrange_UK_1.22.61.1 >> Bravo_Froyrange_UK_2.17.61.2
Hero_HTC_WWE_ELL_2.73.405.66 >> Hero_HTC_WWE_ELL_2.73.405.95
Legend_HTC_WWE_1.31.405.4 >> Legend_HTC_WWE_1.31.405.5
if you put the old version in the "firmware_version" variable and POST it to the update server you will get link for the new updated version of it.
I think this should work with other HTC devices, you just need to enter the Model number for your device (setting>About phone>Phone identity>Model number) for wildfire i found its just enough to write "HTC Wildfire"
UPDATE:
works fine with Desire, Hero, Legend
How do you use this?
Thanks

Wildfire
just check this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788350
fast google show that HTC wildfire shipped with android 2.2 in china, if anyone with wildfire 2.2 can sniff the OTA update and share with us the details that would be nice.
then we may download 2.2 manualy and no need to wait anymore for HTC OTA
is it possible to download stock FROYO rom for Legend??
To the OP:
The correct URL would be http://andchin.htc.com/android/checkin
Sure, it might resolve to that IP for you, but perhaps not for others.
Also, it may change IP in future

Ask for CID
You should ask for CID in your script or change the CID to the SuperCID 11111111
look about the problem here:

There I wrote a .NET App for windows users too. (Source and Binaries included)
Thank you for your sample
It helps me a lot for the WinApp and search for the problem!!!

thanks bro, great tool you create for windows users, i edit my script to send superCID, but strange why for some roms no need to add the CID.
with my wildfire i face the same problem you face it with update to froyo, i never receive the OTA on my phone neither the script didn't found any update, my original ROM "1.15.707.1" is for South East Asia region which include (Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines,Singapore, Vietnam) and also Thailand, from HTC website SEA region receive the OTA, but my phone didn't get any update!!
even now i try to the superCID 11111111, and still no available update.
if any one with wildfire 1.15.707.1 and receive OTA froya, please share with us the packets that sent from your phone to the update server so we can have better idea what we are missing and what need to be improve to make the tool more stable and universal for all android HTC phones.

You do realize that the Wildfire has been EOL'd (End of Life) for quite a bit, so there's no more updates for this thing to fetch.

Well I finished my personal project. It's an Eclair/Droid themed Ion Donut 1.6 build for the Vogue. Nano Droid.
What it has:
*Droid themed launcher, wallpaper and icons.
*Eclair themed dialer
*Themed clock
*Custom themed calculator (could have done it in mspaint)
*Meridian Evolve Music Player
*Gmail from the HTC Tattoo
*Maps and Youtube from Eclair/Sholes
*Work Email with Exchange support
*Jewels (Bejeweled Clone)
*Better Browser with double tap zoom and a couple others.
Installable:
*HTC IME (hero keyboard) (looks funny in qvga so i left it out)
It's made for qvga so set your default.txt to:
Code:
mddi.width=240 mddi.height=320 lcd.density=120
Other resolutions work as well.
Use it with the latest basefiles, zImage and rootfs.img at vogue-android.
I recommend turning off compcache/swap for donut builds. It seems to slow things down by keeping more than needed in compressed memory.
Download this donut.user.conf files if you don't know how to turn off compcache and put it inside /conf on your sdcard. It also has the "chmod 777 /etc/dbus.conf fix for mssmisions recovery/ext2 installer.
New Market fix (Hopefully) build tags/fingerprint in build.prop is for MyTouch3G 1.5.
It seems that when you run donut in qvga the market only shows apps compatible with qvga and remembers those settings even when you go back to ion/xrom etc... vilord has mentioned that if you boot into donut at
Code:
mddi.width=320 mddi.height=480 lcd.density=160
open the market and login and then switch back to a ion/cupcake build your normal market "should" be back.
I still recommend logging in with a separate Google account if your running donut at qvga and want switch back and forth between cupcake/ion 1.5.
If your new and don't know what your doing then read this.
Use the built in xda search powered by Google(TM) to search the vogue forum you will learn a lot.
If you still have questions then post them in the help thread here.
This is not a how to thread.
jamezelle will flame you so you've been warned.

Base System Image Credits go to:

Theme Credits go to:
MontAlbert for partial theming based on the work of Wysie
me for adding missing droid/eclair icons and wallpapers and theming the calculator (nobody ever does that)
Download
Looks great, glad to see you're still looking at the Vogue port. Downloading now, will add details...
Most everything seems to work great, I like the new music player and the theming is excellent (especially the 2.0 icons and the analog clock). For some reason, though, it doesn't seem to be going into full sleep mode, or at least it never seems to lock the screen - when I turn it on it just jumps right to the Android home.
As usual Zen... looks great... Thanks for the lovely build
Confirmed working well at the usual hero resolution but I gotta admit... those are some crisp screenshots! I'm switching back down now.
does this work with msmissions linux ext2?
Not without using adb to set some files to r/w while booting.
** more specifically:
# chmod 777 /etc/dbus.conf
But once it's up and running, it's very fast!
can someone modify the build to add those commands
wow
looks nice zen
so what works and what doenst works in this one ?
gps ?
data ?
camera ?
seems to be working great! I didn't make any changes to dbus or anything, just loaded fresh, love it! I forgot to set lcd.density tho, so everything is TINY.
Reduced the res, with 120 density, and it looks awesome! I see now what I was missing before!
What about using the HTC IME from tattoo? That should properly support qvga?
Couldn't get it to boot up past the Android logo with the ext2. method.

Do you have to do this every time you boot, or will the setting hold after doing it once? --nope it won't, but.....
Add it to the donut.user.conf file at the end of the file in the custom_shells section. Boots right up! Easy!

Thanks guys much appreciated!
This is awesome. My friend just got the droid today, and he was showing me some pretty cool stuff on it. It's really responsive (I guess I'm just used to the slowness of running from an SD card). I tried showing him my tatoo build, but I was missing some files I needed. I just updated everything and downloaded this. Look forward to messing with it. Thanks!
Hi!
This is an update to previous version Custom Rom Honeycomb 3.2.1 , Firmware 3.2.80;
This Custom Rom ( CR) , is ROOTED, BUSYBOX work well ( fixed all error !) , Su and Superuser already installed .
Now work for HDD model !
The overclock is present but is not activated. ( You can activate by replacing in /system/etc/init.d/Stweak - line # echo xxxxxxxxxx > /proc/opptimizer with exemp. : echo 1222000000 > /proc/opptimizer )
All the files is under UPDATE.zip : => http://www.4shared.com/zip/wUWC2y87/UPDATE.html
If you can not download , here have the same CR with pre-enable Overclock => http://hotfile.com/dl/149057638/e1b2030/PRE_ENABLED_OVERCLOCKING.zip.html ( your details in the second post on down side ....UPDATE...).
What you need to know :
- download UPDATE.zip, unpack and copy archos.ext4.update into /data/media or /mnt/storage .....reboot into SDE and copy zImage and initramfs.cpio.gz in a new driver ! - ok! flash and and wait for restart .
- you can install over the old version or on clean install ....works well for both !
- the restart will take longer .....may be even 2~3 min.
The CR include :
- windows animations ;
- some icons changed;
- some app added in /data/app for NOT FC ;
- adjust audio volume;
- now working 3G port On/OFF;
- you can update su binary into Superuser without error ! ( see picture 4 );
- possibility of Overclocking ( take great care not to damage the device !!! );
- enable vibrator ;
- add some wallpapers and live wallpapers;
This CR is stable, without any error and can be used as a daily Rom !!!
Thanks to their work !!! { @letama and @gen_scheisskopf }

How overclock your device ?
INFO :
Overclocking Edition !
Edit the script Stweak with Root_Explorer or any other app into /system/etc/init.d/Stweak , changing the line
.........................................................
# echo xxxxxxxxxx > /proc/opptimizer
...........................................................
with a number of your choice ( ex. 1.3GHz = 1300000000)
............................................................
echo 1300000000 > /proc/opptimizer
............................................................
For the changes to take effect you don't need to reboot the device , just press long Stweak , choose Open With , choose Linux Script Handler and Execute !
Note: must be run after every reboot !
Now test the changes you made : just open CPUBoost and take a look into CPU Max Speed , you can see here ( as in the picture above) value set by you in script Stweak ! Choose as desired ! ( don't need any other app added for overclocking your device ) .
I advise you to do this with moderation !
I'm NOT responsible for damaged equipment after overclocking !!!
Good Luck !!!
UPDATE.......Now comes with auto-running scripts !
If you bother run Stweak ( script for overclocking) for each reboot : here is to solve this deficit ! = > http://hotfile.com/dl/149057638/e1b2030/PRE_ENABLED_OVERCLOCKING.zip.html
Just unpack and copy archos.ext4.update following the tutorial above.
Is the same CR, but now your selected frequency will now remain after rebooting !
HOW to run this new update ?
- just edit Stweak into /system/etc/init.d : replace "# echo xxxxxxxxxx" with your favorite frequency ( ex. echo 1230000000 ) , save and exit ....and reboot your device. Now open CPUBoost and under CPU Max Speed choose your frequency !
Respectfully ,

Attached a modified and stock param.lfs. Backup your stock PARAM partition /dev/block/mmcblk0p4 before applying any modification. Use this guide and/or attached param.lfs at your own risk!
NOTE:
Until I fully understand the param.lfs structure, dump and modify your own param.lfs always the safest way to do for now.
You may not re-post any file from this thread anywhere else, but you may of course link to this post (not the download directly!).
Don't be a leech, I am not asking for donations but use the "Thanks" button!
So if I prepack this for all the new logos. This should be flashable from recovery ya think?
Awesome work!
I might do this during the weekend.
I might be lazy and wait for a zip to flash that does it for me.

Do u think we should get a dump from each device model or or do u think the partition size is the same on all the 7inch models?

1024*8, from "cat /proc/patitions". I do not know what information is stored in the PARAM partition but my original /dev/block/mmcblk0p4 contain 15 parts of data, every part started by "\x21\x43\x65\x87" magic number. The boot logo stored in the first part. I've tried zeroing mmcblk0p4 and then just write the first part of the original data back to mmcblk0p4, no problem so far.

And you boost my spirit to keep contribute here. Not just easier but the easiest way to edit boot logo. Who need hex editor, when my script do the dirty job for you!

NOTE: These files are NOT, I REPEAT NOT CWM flashable. you have to follow step 10 of ketut's OP instructions
I'm not responsible if you screw up your Tab either because you flashed these files or because you didn't read the OP well enough

Oke seeing we kinda lost the possibility to use DDMS for screenshots in recovery on latest HTC Devices.
There had to be another way to do this so after few hours of google and making a few bat tests here it is.
It might not work on all devices but you can try and report please.
Confirmed working on One X
I made a zipp (easy run me bat included) containing all the stuff needed to make screenshots in recovery.
Basically its easy and it makes use of files from this project http://code.google.com/p/android-fb2png/
I did not write fb2png, my little script is just using it to make the shots.
Just download screenshot.rar
Extract it and run the screenshot_run_me bat file.
All the bat does is running the following commands
Code:
@echo off
echo ********************************************
echo * *
echo * ADB-Screenshot Util *
echo * Boot into Recovery *
echo * Plug In USB Cable *
echo * Enjoy ;) *
echo * *
echo ********************************************
echo.
pause
echo shell mount /data
adb shell mount /data
echo Mounting /data Done!
echo .
echo push fb2png /data/local/
adb push fb2png /data/local/
echo Pushing fb2png to /data/local Done!
echo .
echo shell chmod 755 /data/local/fb2png
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/fb2png
echo Setting permissions on fb2png Done!
echo .
echo shell /data/local/fb2png /data/local/fbdump.png
adb shell /data/local/fb2png /data/local/fbdump.png
echo Taking Screenshot by running fb2png Done!
echo .
echo pull /data/local/fbdump.png
adb pull /data/local/fbdump.png
echo Pulling fbdump.png into adb folder Done!
echo .
echo ********************************************
echo * *
echo * You will find screenshot in adb folder *
echo * named as fbdump.png *
echo * *
echo ********************************************
echo.
adb shell sync
adb shell umount /data
pause
But its very useful for example TWRP Themers to show their work without the hassle of using a camcorder or other cam.

I know you said it's for the HTC but I tried it on my Samsung Galaxy S2. The color is off but at least I'm able to produce a better image oppose to trying to take a descent pic with another device or camera. That's one more device you can add to the list if you'd like.
Thanks again

Hum, well iam afraid I can't do much about it at the moment.
The good news, iam in contact with the author of the project and we are looking into the new xrgb stuff.
And yes, it works outside recovery too but it's kinda buggy for me there.

This tool was very useful for me with my previous Note II. I've tried on my Nexus 5.
I didn't have any error message with the .bat file but here is the screenshot I obtained:
Great tool thanks!
I often used it on i9000 (Galaxy S) but noticed recently that it didn't worked anymore at least on Aosp rom since a few CM10.2 nighlties.
Finally it seems adb.exe needs an update,works if replaced with that one for instance:https://app.box.com/s/slwbzi1hw35sv5yr0ss7

could you connect the device to a Linux pc and run the following in pc 's terminal
ssh [email protected]
sudo -i
cp /system/etc/wifi/WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini /data/misc/wifi/WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini
