Finally! for the European suckers like me, who for example installed an RUU from another continent(my case was Asia, Chungwa RUU update) and are now stuck with it...although there is no root yet for this bootloader/spl , at least you can have the European version with the European widgets like Friendstream...
Here ya go mates!

If there are any difficulties, use the goldcard
DON'T FORGET THIS WILL WIPE YOUR PHONE DATA. AND THAT THIS IS AN OFFICIAL HTC UPDATE, IT IS NOT ROOTED.
Damn i'm happy
Friendstream is a lie.
Also, where did shipped-roms.com get the RUU? I can't find anything on HTC's European support page.

What do you mean by "friendstream is a lie" ? I haven't installed yet but I assume it has all the European Widgets... or have you install it and I'm wrong?
Lol, where did shipped-roms find it? The same place where it has found the WWE RUU 2.03 for Legend

Unfortunately, Hero's 2.1 doesn't include Friendstream. 3D Gallery and live wallpapers are also missing.

weird...i thought they did...3d gallery is simply an app, just download it at the market.
well, about the source of it...probably some leak from Htc...I can't see it being anything else...
Are you very sure that this is an official HTC RUU?

well, i'm not 100% sure but let us face facts...
shipped-roms.com has all the updates that are known from HTC...it has released previously other RUU that were available a lot of time after at HTC...
I've flashed this RUU to a Hero and it's perfect...
so...
Am i sure? No...
Is it official? I think so!lol
Does it work? Hell yes! lol
Ok Casca. I'll try it and give feedback. Thanks!
What you mean
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=720394
conflipper, is shipped-roms developer.
Tried it Casca but it didn't work. It shows error 131 ( that means I have the wrong ID). I'm very disappointed and desperate. What can I do now?
How can I know the suitable RUU for my HTC hero?
I went to shipped-roms web site and I found many RUU. How can I know the suitable for my device?

Without opening the box how can i tell if this Rogers HTC Magic can be rooted or not?
The reason i ask is because some of the newest ones already have the new updated firmware applied to them (or so my friend has told me).
Does anyone think this is the case or not?
I think the new ones have a Magic+! Not sure though
What makes you think it's some of the newest ones? I'm pretty sure ALL of them have the updated firmware by now
im pretty sure you can't tell by the box (almost positive).... best thing to do is ask how long the store has had it in stock..
if they had it from early january or from 2009 then it will not have the newest update and can be rooted... if its after mid january then it a good bet it will have the non rootable update..
thanks i will ask and find out.

... as of now it cannot be rooted, that isnt to say that i never will be rooted. once the 2.1 update comes out there may be a way to root again, but only time will tell... my recommendation is to buy a used one that is already rooted, or one that someone never did the update on if you really want root now..
thanks. ignorant though.
what me being ignorant? was just trying to help..
not you but Rogers, it looks like the one i have is rootable so not so ignorant at all!
awesome bud, glad to hear! welcome to the party that is custom roms. : D

What makes you think there _will_ be an update to 2.1?
And if there is one, what makes you think it might be rootable?
rogers have said there will be a 2.1 update. and i dont know if it can be rooted, no one does..we have to wait and see
Did Rogers explicitly promise to update the magic? I couldn't find any source for that. As for HTC, they only mention they will have an update for the Hero - nothing about the Magic.
Sent from my HTC Magic using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
just google rogers magic 2.1 .. yes its comming.. that is the reason why they offered the free upgrade to magic from dream as the dream was not getting the update..
it is comming, it is promised and it is known...
Yeah you're right. A statement from the source is here:
www.htc.com/us/support/magic-rogers/help/system-and-upgrade
OTOH my carrier has made it known that it will not be offering any update beyond 1.5 for the magic.
But back on topic, if HTC has been able to cook an unrootable update at least once, they will keep it this way with further updates too. I'm willing to bet the future update will do nothing to help those who would rather run custom roms, as opposed to those who will be content with the official 2.1 release.
Can somebody suggest where I can get the official ROMs especially european ROM since I see lots of asian firmwares being upgraded to European firmwares in many threads in this forum.
Also I want to how I can change the firmware to these european FW without rooting. Somebody please suggest step by step directions please.
I am having a singtel fw and need to remove the singtel animation at startup and my ver number is JE9 as I see most of the people are using JF versions which seem to be more recent than what I have.
And after changing it I should still be able to upgrade to froyo officially when it releases.
thanks

The site is not an official Samsung's sponsor site, but the ROMs are official. Though, from what I have learned, not all the official ROM can be found there.
The only official EU rom at this time is JF3 and they just posted that today. Official means released by samsung. No one has clarified who/what samsung-firmwares.com really is but those newer roms are definitely not official. This doesn't mean they aren't great especially since now we can flash back to the stock firmware if we need it for warranty purposes.

They are not officially available to the public so there's nothing official about them. If I assume that they are the same files used when flashing the phones that are distributed around the world I guess they could be called "shipping" ROMs, but that doesn't make them more official than the updates.

It is "official" enough for me. When used the ROM found at their site, I manage to restore SGS to default and initial state. It even comes with all the customisations that are specially designed for the local operator I subscribed to. I don't really want to know nor do I care how the owner of the site manage to access these ROM files.

We need wait from Samsung though...
At least this clear out some misinformation regarding the ROM files at their site.
I am getting more confused now:
What are 'stock ROMs' then and what are those that are called 'official ROMs' if samsung has not released them or posted them and where are these sourced from.
My fw is JE9 asian, although I can see that it looks old when I see JF4 already being talked about, dont know how this supercedes my JE9 when samsung has not released an update? And I dont want to risk flashing those different so called official ROMs if samsung tomorrow devices some way of tracking that these are ROM that did not ship with the device and not allow me to upgrade to froyo - so i think i will rather wait.

OK, so here's the plan for how to spend my Saturday morning . Comments welcome.
1. upgrade firmware to B138
2. install superboot (not sure if I need to do this...)
3. install CWM 4.0.1.5
4. (optional) install new ROM (Oxygen 2.2.1 or FLB r7)
Did I miss anything?

Superboot was designed for 2.2.1 (B136) and may not work properly with 2.2.2 (B138). You don't need it at all if you install Oxygen/CM7/FLB/Miui.
Yup, I suspected that. Thanks for the confirmation!
So i received my X5 with U8800V100R001C00B135SP01 CUSTNLD253D001
I guess the customization is for Dutch market.
Does anyone know what these customizations are?
Also, i'm looking for a newer rom, but huawei isn't very helpful.
Can anybody please sent me a link to most recent stock rom that will work
in Europe (the netherlands)?
Thanks a lot for helping.
Any European B138 Roms should be much better compared to what you have now... The customization is limited to some applications that Netherlands Operator has agreed to get for this phone...Check your PMs...
Thanks!
I'll give it a try.
Does anyone know why they removed the roms from their site?

I've try'd the b136 rom for a week now, but i've found no differences... phone still reboots at random times. Using the dataconection (3G) gives reboots often.
Guess i've received a brick from Huawei.
