[Q] Updating unlocked Incredible S

Hello,
I was wondering if there is a way up updating the Incredible S 4G after it has been unlocked.. I have unlocked the phone and currently on the Rogers network..
There's an update to Gingerbread but every time I search for an OTA update, i am told that there are no updates currently available..
Is there a way of getting this update through software instead of a OTA update?
Thanks in advance!! Appreciate the help

[Q] Is it possible to get official ICS update on sim unlocked phone?

Hi,
I'm using a sim unlocked (not rooted) HTC Amaze phone with T-mobile; previously used with Windmobile Canada. It seems I cannot get the official update from T-mobile since my software version is different.
Is there any way I can get the official ICS, without rooting or voiding my warranty?
Thanks.

No, you have to be running T-Mobile software in order to receive an OTA from T-Mobile.

[Q] Downgrade my Droid DNA firmware

I got my DNA 3 days ago
everything are fine until i found out that I can't check updates for my phone
(it shows only with CDMA network) and I don't live in US so I'm using GSM network
was trying to unlock and flash custom ROM but the thing is my phone already got OTA update to version 2.04.605
as I know this version can't be unlock so don't even mention about flash CMV and what not.
Is there any chance that I could just downgrade back to version 1.15.605?
I also am trying to figure out how downgrade so that I can root. Im not exactly sure how to root but from what I read I need to be on 1.x.x.x instead of the 2.x.x.x . Please help I searched and this what I found

You should be able to just download the RUU and run it from your SD card. Being that you are in Korea, you probably want a global version.
http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/08/15/exclusive-download-full-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/ has a link to download, and instructions for using it to upgrade.
Note: Doing this will completely wipe the phone, so be sure to back up anything you don't want to lose.

[Q] Unlocked ATT M8 Lollipop Update

Hi guys, since upgrading to a stock ATT M8 (from a rooted ATT M7) on December, I have wanted to do the Lollipop update, but I do not want to risk the phone by rooting it (maybe I could do it on a last case scenario). ATT recently pushed the OTA update to the M8, but mine is unlocked, and I'm currently using it on Claro PR, so when I check for updates it gives me nothing. So here goes my question, can I manually download and push the ATT update from HTC to the M8 (as it is on stock kit kat)? My only doubt is that since it's unlocked, could it brick during the process, or would it be alright? Thanks in advance!

Is it SIM unlocked or unlocked from HTC? Unlocked from HTC means it has no carrier branding/bloatware and can be used on any network, compared to SIM unlocked where its just an AT&T phone with AT&T apps and branding that is SIM unlocked. If its unlocked from HTC you could just use an RUU to update. If its SIM unlocked from AT&T you could use an RUU but I'm unaware if that would then break the SIM unlock.
