Download HTC Desire S Android 2.3.2 Gingerbread ROM

Things happen really quick in the Android world and lately Paul O Brien, Android hacker and Modaco Forum administrator, has released a HTC Desire S ROM. It is believed that this ROM has been extracted from a test RUU dump of the phone that hasn’t seen consumer hands until now. For those who don’t know, HTC recently announced several Android devices with old names and a new S predecessor such as Incredible S, Desire S, Wildfire S etc.

According to Paul, the ROM is complete with no changes [everything stock, including brandware and bloatware] based on a test RUU of HTC Desire S / HTC Saga. It is Android 2.3.2 Gingerbread and comes loaded with boot animation. We believe that noobs like us, who rely on flashing completed ROMs, won’t be finding this very interesting but ROM chefs and modders might juice the right bacon out of this RUU based Desire S ROM.

Here is what Paul has to say about this release:

• This is the full ROM with no changes EXCEPT to remove identifying watermarks (at the request of my source)
• It’s Gingerbread 2.3.2
• The boot image is included

This is obviously for developer use.

You can download HTC Desire S Android 2.3.2 Gingerbread based ROM from here and then do whatever you feel like doing with it. Please note that this ROM isn’t yet ready for you prime time usage and we can’t guarantee if it works stable or turns your phone into an effing zombie. In our opinion, you should wait for the developers to integrated parts of this ROM to their upcoming releases that are in a zip file and easy to flash / install on your handset.
