How to Update HTC Desire with ICS ( Android 4 Ice Cream Sandwich )

Who is Laila?

Laila is the most beautiful geeky girl of the world. She knows everything about android (who can believe otherwise?). Laila has some suggestion about updating your HTC Desire with ICS. What Laila said is written by me.

1.  You need to charge the phone to at least 70% level.
2.  Backup the important data like contacts, notes, texts etc. Otherwise, you may lose all these data.

Liala told everybody to be aware before doing this update. She told that it would be unwise for an inexperienced fellow to do this update. IT would better for him/her to seek an experienced one about the way of Android devices. You shall also know that if you follow these instructions you shall do it by your own risk. I, Laila or this website will not be responsible for any damage or data loss. All the functions of the HTC Desire may not function properly after the update.

1)      You need to root your HTC Desire to update it with Ice Cream Sandwich. If you want to know how to root your Desire you may read this article. (Laila said that rooting is nothing but making your phone free from the bondage of HTC.)

2)      Now you have to unlock the boot loader of your HTC Desire. See the video below if you have no clue.

Liala has a very cute smile. She gave a very cute smile and said to me, “This is not an unofficial update; you need custom ROMs to do it.” I (after forcefully moving my eyes from the wrong directions) said,” Give me the link”. So, she gave me these links. Download the files guys to your PC. These will be needed to do the update.

1)      ICS ROM Zip.

2)      Google Apps Package Zip.

You may wonder does Laila have a boyfriend or not. The answer is both yes and no. She often has a boyfriend but most of the time she is alone. Such a geeky girl cannot be settled so easily. OK, we are now coming to the main point: updating Android ICS to HTC Desire.

1)      Copy both downloaded Zip files from your PC to the root directory of the mobile’s SD card. Do not try to unzip, please.

2)       Now you should have to unable USB debugging. How? Just got to Settings, then to Applications > Development > USB Debugging.

3)      Now reboot your phone to enter in the bootloader mode. Do it by pressing Volume Up, OK and Power buttons together while booting.

4)      If you have succeeded to enter into the bootloader mode then select Recovery option.

5)      After that make a Nandroid backup.

6)      Now clean the ROM. Just select “Wipe Cache” and “Wipe Dalvic Cache” to do it.

7)      Now it is the time to install the ROM. Tap “install zip from SD card”. (Whenever Laila says “Zip” my eyes goes to the Zip of her dress, the line of zip goes through the vally: no more loose talk.)

8)      Select the ICS Zip file and start download. It will take some time to be completed.

9)      After that download the G-Apps package.

10)  Well done, now it is the time to reboot your HTC Desire.

Yes, you have done it. The HTC Desire ICS update has completed. Give thanks to Laila.
