[Q] Can anyone update HTC apps? - HTC EVO 3D

Trying to watch Green Hornet but the HTC software update wont start so I can watch it. Anyone else dealin with this?

Me. I did a few OTA updates soon as I got the phone and then when I tried to watch the Green Hornet it prompted 3 more updates and have been at 0% for over an hour now, and I've tried Wifi, 3g, and 4g smh......

Same here...servers must be slammed with everyone trying to do the same thing.
edit...working now.

Now mines says "Application updates (2/3) (paused)

yeah looks like its working now

got mine at 8am and its still hasnt downloaded the update, these servers need to get it together

I had to retry about four times before mine updated.

Did my phone update?

My phone was connecting with something today, then I had a message saying I had an update. So I downloaded it, it said I may wait up to 10 minutes, but it took less than 30 seconds and the phone rebooted. But it seems like its the exact same. I'm not sure if I even got the update. I checked in settings and its saying my firmware is up to date.
My vibrant is rooted, with stock software, with gps fix and lag fix. Any ideas? Is there a way to find out if its updated?

From your home screen, click on the settings, go to About phone Look at baseband version, if it reads T959UVJI6. then you are updated.

Trouble updating htc software

So just got back from the sprint store and they did the OTA update for me >_> without asking... Oh well, no biggie... I hope.
But when I try and watch The Green Hornet 3D it asks me to update some HTC apps like watch, but it never gets past 0%... I'm connected to wifi and speedtested at 15 mb/s... Downloading apps and the spiderman game just fine...
It took mine forever.

What did i just update?

So i notice i had an update, i figured it was the Adfree app since its constantly being upated so i go ahead and click it. Next thing i know, the screen goes black and says downloading and installing system update. (it didn't look like any of the HTC updates which promps you to choose between wifi) At this point i was like wth is being updated since it gave no log or any details about what the update does, i try to pull the battery but the update finishes before i could remove it. Now i have no idea what just got updated Has anyone gotten an update like that? If so, any ideas what it does?

How would anyone here know unless they were looking over your shoulder ? Just go to settings-about phone-software info. If it says 2.08.621.3, it was the HTC Sprint update. I don't know if the GSM update has a different version, but you can probably find out what the update for that is as well.
I had that too, i had quickly clicked cancel though, dunno what's up
I'm running 2.08.651.2
I just received the same update but no clue on what was updated

I have 2.08.621.3. It didn't look like any previous update since no change log or any details about what was being update was shown. It was just a black screen and nothing else, didn't give me an option to cancel either.

Wired. I'm on .3 here and just did a manual check and got nothing. Not typical for updates to push out to start this late though either.
Checked HTC hub too and nothing.

I found the auto update box checked for htc. I unchecked it, curious if it happens again.
I got the update too but I cancelled it before it installed
I just did a nand restore of a rom based off Zone's that is using bcblends kernel. I let the phone sit for about five minutes after it booted, then checked it and it said "service update complete" in a bubble over my homescreen. My build is still 2.08.651.2.
Yeah everything seems the same at the moment and like others have said it wasn't a typical update it never asked if I wanted to update or not the screen went black and a box appeared and said system update then 3 minutes later said update complete and nothing else after that no change log or anything

From my tricked out 3d

Very strange. No information released they just push these updates?? Luckily I caught it and canceled immediately. Please don't come back!

Same thing with me. My phone was sitting on the counter after I got off a call. 2 hours later I pick it up and it says update complete. I'm on ViperRom and haven't noticed anything wacky going on so far.
Dying to know what this is about. The only reason I knew is my sister texted me telling me her phone updated (same phone). I told her that was weird and she shouldn't have accepted. Then a moment later mine tried to and I canceled. Ugh. I hate not having explanations.

Add one to the auto update. Running Warm, auto update unchecked as always, was on a call with screen off and when I hung up had the popup saying update will now be applied. Still have root so no worries.

Angry Birds locks up after OTA update

Looks like I'm not alone either. Well, the only other person I know with an Evo 4G LTE experiences the exact same thing, at least.
You can play for about 10-15 seconds before the screen freezes. The background audio that plays during gameplay still can be heard, but the game is locked up.
It happens on all versions of the game even after uninstalling, restarting, and reinstalling.
Anyone else?
Quite curious.
Thanks
Works fine for me

Strange... It doesn't work for us at all.
I don't have the wife app so I can't relate to the second part.
have you tryed rebooting the phone. my tablet has had this happen before with netflix and a reboot fixed it.
I just tried mine, and it seems to work OK. I just updated yesterday. I rebooted after the update so maybe that's why?!? Not sure. I believe there was an Angry birds app update that came through after the OTA update, but I could be speaking out my hind end.
I have the wife app, and she seems to be running stable so far today. This is always subject to change though
This is annoying enough that it moved me to backup my shizzle and completely wipe my device.
I did a factory reset and had it wipe out my SD card and phone storage both.
I got the phone back up and running, installed Angry Birds again.
Locked up 10 seconds into playing.
My friend and I continue to have the same issue.
Any ideas?
The stock browser keeps crashing on me too. The screen just goes white and nothing loads. This never happened before the OTA update. Also the youtube app gets stuck on a black screen. It's happened twice and I've had to reset my phone to fix it. It hasn't done it in awhile but it just sucks because it never did it before the update.

Same with me and stock browser
Not only am I having the browser issue I'm also getting a white screen for Gmail and Google maps and also have Google wallet not want to open. I've been having to reset my phone almost 2 times a day from these issues. Never happened at all before the ota update.

Juan...I forgot to mention Gmail in my post but I'm also getting a white screen upon opening gmail. A reset always fixes that but it's super annoying.
I have narrowed it down to only Google apps and the stock browser I can access all apps when it acts up with the white screens but it's weird that it started doing this after the ota update.

Have you guys try to do factory rest after OTA? I havent met this issue at all.

Is the Update Phone Software Menu Hanging for Anybody else?

I was just playing with my phone and thought I'd check for an update to phone software. Surprisingly, the message that usually pops (saying your OS is up to date) isn't showing up and instead, it just keeps searching. Is something brewing???
Don't know if anything is "brewing" but mine is doing the same as yours...Verizon V980 @ 7:55 AM CST.
What version are you using? Sprint got an update a week or two ago now
