Android 2.3 Gingerbread hits HTC Desire HD on Vodafone


HTC Desire HD owners on Vodafone are being bumped to the latest version of Android, adding some sweet new features to HTC’s best-selling blower.

The long-awaited OS update, news of which emerged on Vodafone’s forums, brings a much improved virtual keyboard to the handset plus easier copy and paste. Also new is a better app management system and support for internet calls.

Somewhat strangely, Voda promises we’ve got “multiple camera management (front and rear)” to look forward to as well. Why strange? Well, the thing is there’s no front-facing snapper on the Desire HD.

Still beggars can’t be choosers. And credit goes to Voda for being the first UK carrier to get Gingerbread out to the legion of Desire owners on its network.

As is always the case with updates, the size of the file means it’s wise to use a WiFi connection to download it. And don’t forget to back up your data, too. Just in case...
