are you rooted, customer recovery? your request is pretty vague. if it's the .6 point release it's just bug fixes. I installed it day one and have had no issues.

Does it affect root?

I don't think so, even if it did it's a quick fix. The point was more that there was a total lack of information in the OP. maybe I should have told him it would turn him into a troll :O

did it anyway lol, we'll see what happens

I was on gtalk with faux123 and sent him the OTA update. He took a look and determined that the .6 update disabled the HTC information mining and logging. I'm not saying that it did not effect the heat issue, but it was mostly for the logging.

HTC information kinda monitors your phone for issues and when they happen gets reported.

Someone needs to update me on my nerd lingo
Next OTA Will most likely be sense 3.5 maybe theyll fix their issue there
And my reason to say most likely is that htc sensation has already recieved its leak of sense 3.5 they should expect it between oct-dec and we get updates about 1-2 weeks after them

I could only imagine the whine if they rushed the update and it bricked people's phones or wiped their data.

When Verizon confirms it on twitter, I'll believe it
Week of 7/24, way to pick a tuesday. HTC has said we will get it by the end of july as a soak test and then roll the rest out on august 3rdish, this upcoming friday. We will most likely see it this upcoming week or the week after barring any trouble verizon has.

Agreed. This just looks like the same chart that was "leaked" earlier this week, except for the release dates it just said "TBD". Someone probably shopped it then sent it to Android websites.

Yes, once the OTA drops, kernel source isn't too far behind, and that's always good for development.

I've got the same message on my EVO. My battery was low as well, so I get the low battery, but it's only a firmware update. I doubt it's Jelly Bean. I've plugged my phone in and will wait to see what it is. I'm rooted with same version stock..
Did you guys do the contact app update from a few weeks ago? Maybe its that, I don't know.
I got some update that I did not approve this morning. I just had the message that my phone had been updated successfully. I'm running meanrom 4.8. After quickly looking around, I could not see anything different with the software.
I'm curious what this is too.

A few days ago, my phone acted like I was trying to update profile or prl(went to a black screen with a dialog that said something about an update, I was tired) and said something like "no firmware update found". I just updated my radio firmware recently, before that update, I wonder if Sprint is forcing the phone to search for a firmware update? But in my case, I already did it manually.

New OTA firmware 2.06.605.1 710RD from Verizon

I have an HTC DNA softwafe version 2.04.605.2 710 RD and I was just notified of a new software update 2.06.605.1 710RD.
Here is the official documentation from Verizon:
"Improvements have been made to sim card detection".
I haven't had any problems with my DNA so far so I'm not sure if this would be a fix for other people. Also I'm not sure how this would affect current root status or if there's any hidden updates besides the one Verizon listed.
I'm not rooted so I'm trying to get it downloaded and off my device to upload to the devs but no luck yet. I have the SIM card issues so I'm fine with eventually installing, but I don't want to loose the chance to download the file first.
Here is the OTA for whoever wants it. Its not rooted. Its straight from the download (NOTHING DONE TO IT) https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B3OJJDTvOy8vdkhZVWpVRWlJMzA/edit?usp=sharing
Can you upload it somewhere else, I don't want to have to register with 4shared to download it.
Nevermind, I signed up as Jon Voight and was able to download it.

Security holes such as signature check typos, unintended memory access, or workarounds to getting certain write functions working where they aren't supposed to are our "exploits." The updates need to be thoroughly analyzed for security holes if they are to be used for exploits.
Think twist brought up a good point though. People that don't really need the update should hold off I guess I'm stating the obvious but if some exploit was found and us stuck on ota before the new one was received could install some sort of modified one if these guys found and holes in this.

VZW made HTC remove the DNA from htcdev. What makes you think they are not actively ensuring that this device stays locked down? They hire actual people for this purpose.

Thanks for the reply! I ask because I am on a ROM running 1.90.401.5 but my phone itself is still 1.19. The ROM runs incredibly fast but I get horrible battery life. Wondering if it's because of firmware mismatch? The ROM notes say you can run it on the VZW 10 though.

I'm running the older 2.0.1 build with the stock kernel and i get pretty good battery life for my use. I had issues with the custom kernel not reading the SDcard correctly hence the stock kernel. Was thinking about updating to the current build 2.4.1, which i assume you're on. Are you running the stock or custom kernel by chance? Might be the issue.
Either way hopefully we'll get a new firmware announcement on Thur. We are so far behind everyone else atm

No. If you want the update now, ruu back to stock, take the OTA, then reroot. Soff is what matters not root.
